So for the past five months, I've been working on a project. I've made a lot of progress collaborating with various communities. I'm collecting authentic lines of dialogue from various Marvel characters. Upon completion it'll be over 11,000 lines of dialogue for over 400 characters.
I currently have a living breathing simulation of the Marvel universe going on. The characters can jump between timelines, universes, dimensions, form supergroups, whatever. The characters have all the same powers and attributes as they do in the comics. It's a mod of a game called Comic Book Hero, and you can see it in action here:
The only problem is that they don't talk, and to have a truly immersive Marvel world, that has to change. The game itself has support for dialogue in many different situations, but due to the magnitude of how much dialogue would be required, nobody has attempted to add it for this project...until now.
It's not something I plan on selling or anything, it is a hobbyist project that will end up being a free mod for copyright reasons. The project is currently over one third complete.
The details are on the site, but to put it simply: it is a collaborative project that anybody can anonymously contribute to, so if you want to assist, you can contribute as much or as little as you like, but if you want attribution you will have to reply here so that I know who to attribute. Any help is definitely appreciated seeing as there is a lot of dialogue to go through. I do a lot of contributions myself.
Up until now, I have been using direct quotes from the comics, and that has gotten me about as far as I think it will get me. Any further progress will require original writing and/or roleplaying, which is why I am reaching out to some newer communities focused on those activities. Do keep in mind that I want each character to sound like they do in the comics. That means any accents, catch phrases, or mannerisms need to come across, which means that a minimal amount of research into a character should occur before contributing to him or her. The two places I generally check are the Marvel Wikia, which has a quotations page for each character, as well as general background, and Comic Vine, which has general background as well as an images section that you can usually find quotes on.
The project is located here:
http://goo.gl/mr9E51You will start on the "Readme" page, which has a lot more information about the project. If you want to see the work that's been done so far, or contribute more lines, you will have to select one of the pages along the bottom to find your character, as they are sorted alphabetically.
Again, if you do contribute, and want to eventually be credited, please leave a reply here so that I can do so. I will complete this project eventually, on my own if I have to, but any assistance means that I can do so faster. Thanks in advance.
