Random story generation?
Ok, so ive got this idea: I want to make a RPG type game that keeps a history of pretty much everything, from the biggest battles to the details of a tree thats grown old and about to fall over. I also want to make the world randomly generated upon install/user request/whatever, so you can see how writing a background story for everything is kind of impossible. I was thinking the game would record various statistics for items and npcs: likes, dislikes, place of birth, fav. color, and so on, and bump these ageist a set of rules for english, and output it to the user.
I know getting it even close to correct, grammar wise, will take ALOT of effort, but i think its do-able. Im big into Tolkien, and was thinking of analyzing his work to come up with some type of formula that I could apply to the game to give it that LoTR touch. Comments?
