I'd be very interested in a magical girl RPG developed by a Western woman. I think there's a number of ways it could be done that would be interesting and compelling, especially if more emphasis were placed on using the two sides of the girls as metaphors for true and presented selves.

Since I already played the old Super Famicom Sailor Moon RPG via emulator many moons ago, I absolutely would be willing to play a new Sailor Moon rpg but only if it has bright,colorful stylized cel-shaded graphics.
If it looked like Mass Effect, I'd have to support whatever Take Back the Moon Kingdom movement starts up in the new game's wake on principles.

Probably would if Tuxedo Mask was the main character. I know barely anything about Sailor Moon in general but that guy seems kind of cool.
Yes, a thousand times yes! It's about time that a superhero RPG was made in the Japanese sentai or magical girl style, and Love would be a good choice to do it. We've had more than enough heroines that mistake being "badass" for being compelling, and it would be cool to see a bunch of female characters unafraid to be, well, feminine (in a tasteful way, of course).
Well, if the tone matched something like Madoka Magica or Ikuhara's tone in Utena or Mawaru Penguindrum, I'd be all game for it.
Because it bears saying: This is the kind of thing that KickStarter is for. As long as the project accounts for licensing fees as well as development costs,there shouldn't be any problem.
If she wants to do it and wants some multiple demographic appeal, she ought to bring on the artist Michael Vega/Cooking Peach/Miu and maybe pull in a Brony or two as consultants.

Tis worth noting that I whole heatedly say nope to Sailor Moon because I remember the awful "getting ready for a fight" sequences. Not even gonna.
If they were say, magical girls that wore things that weren't absolutely retarded/over-sexualized, then yeah, why not.

I would absolutely play a Sailor Moon Mass Effect -- especially if it used the song from the U.S. dub. Doubly-especially if I could play as Sailor Jupiter. She was always my favorite...well, tied with Sailor Mercury.
It's a good thing I don't have any shame, because otherwise this would be really embarrassing.
But yes. Sailor Moon, magical girl, or otherwise, it seems like an idea I wouldn't mind supporting (sparkles > blood). Now if you'll excuse me, I have some childhood memories to relive. Fighting evil by moonlight...

I'd certainly be interested in a magical girl RPG assuming it was mechanically competent or oozed style. The concept of being able to create your own unique transformation sequences and customize your costume seems novel at least.
I love magical girls, but hmm...magical girl Mass Effect...makes me think it'd be amazing to have one set in the Nanoha universe. Tracking down Lost Logia through space with techno-magical staves.
I commented on the Youtube page.
Yes, I would buy and play this. This needs to be a game that is made.

I would love to play a game like that. As long as it wasn't a dating sim of some kind, but an actual RPG in the vein of Final Fantasy or something like that. The gaming industry needs more original titles, especially in the states, and... I dunno, I would just play the shit out of that.

I want to play Princess Maker 2 more than any other PC game out there. So yes, I would enjoy playing a magical girl game as long as the characters have depth.
Huh? That's kind of a silly question. Don't you mean a Sailor Moon action/rpg done in the Mass Effect style, with dialog wheels, recruitable party members whose affections you can win or lose, and an epic, multi-game spanning story?
If its a good game, with good characters (rpg-wise, that is) I don't give a shit what sex or color or even species said characters are.
hell fucking yeah :P
Sailor Moon is fucking awesome and so is Power Puff Girls.
yeah i watch those back then so come at me bitch.

I wouldn't touch a game like that with a Citadel beam, as I mostly like games about war and death and killing things. But considering that my tastes are pretty well catered to already I think it would great if someone made a Sailor Moon RPG for people who would like a Sailor Moon RPG.
I didn't like Dragonball, and Jem was before my time, so I watched Sailor Moon as a kid. And my parents wondered how I turned out gay!
Not if it's going to play like Mass Effect.
Give it the same handling as Dragon's Dogma, FF13, or better yet Kingdom Hearts and I'll be buying!

This would be fun. Not sure if magical girls should be the ONLY choice in game but fine with it either way.
A woman making video games about females? I'd play it just to see if there really is a difference. That said if it were an MMO, I highly suspect it'd devolve into a space harem. It'd just have more magic than this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vandread

If the writing is good and the game play is fun, sure. But only if I get to be a Renegade and punch everyone I don't like.
i'll eat up anything christine love makes to be honest. i love the amount of thought and effort she puts into her games.
Not only would I buy this, I'd probably get the special edition with the pointless decorative cathelm.
Is it wrong to be a grown man and getting legitimately excited about some of the ideas in the comments?
"That came as some surprise, as Christine's games are all a lot more intelligent and interesting than Sailor Moon to me."
Wow Holmes, so because she wants to make an RPG about magical girls, it automatically means it wouldn't, couldn't, ever be intelligent and interesting?
For a guy who frequently wants us to believe that every indie game you bring to our attention is a masterpiece, you've got a real set telling us that a game couldn't possibly be intelligent or interesting because of the genre it fits in. You've said some pretty ridiculous things, but this one kind of takes the cake.
And, since I haven't watched the video yet (won't be till I'm home), was she even talking about Sailor Moon directly, or just the genre itself? Cause its just as ridiculous to think "Magical Girl" automatically means "Sailor Moon", as it is for anyone to think "FPS" automatically means "Call of Duty".
Any way you go about it, yeah, I'd actually play a Magical Girl RPG, in the vein of Mass Effect. And I have played Sailor Moon RPG's in the past, in the form of old, badly translated, roms (and if they weren't RPG's they were at least Sailor Moon games), and actually enjoyed them. So yeah, I'd probably scoop up a Sailor Moon Mass Effect, too, and at least give a little bit of the benefit of the doubt that there *may* be writers today with enough talent to be able to pull off something amazing based on something some people *obviously* perceive as vapid crap.

Code of Princess an RPG?
It's a beat'em up like Guardian Heroes but worse because the input commands are way more simple and you can do over and over the same missions until you've leveled up to the point the current one becomes extremely easy.
"How about you? Would you play an RPG about women being whatever type of woman they want to be, while killing monsters and talking about life in their spare time?"
If the game is good sure. But for that i'd have to be an action-rpg. Turn-based rpgs just don't cut it.

I'd toats get it. I used to rock this during Toonami and in the mornings before school on a local station. It was always kinda beyond me and I never really got it, but it was decent anime from my childhood. That's is all the win I need.
