They would need a developer to fund the project, and I don't think RWBY is popular enough yet for any devlpoer to seriously consider it. and even if they could fund the project off of kickstarter, they're a team of comdeians, voice actors, and a few animators. They don't have any developers on staff.

Although I see it happening eventually, my recommendation is make some achevments to pass the time, because it's going to be a while. I have stated this in the past on this thread and I'm glad some people like you and Zolnir has come to the same conclusion. I would say we are about 2 to 3 years away from seeing any game being hinted at.

RWBY needs to grow far more substantially first before they can start development. Monty and I believe a few of the others have previous experince working in the video game industry, but the biggest thing they currently lack is manpower. Something that roosterteeth can not easily toss aside.

Though frankly, there is three avenues I see this game going,

- Team-Based RPG (you in control of a group of characters)

- Create-Your-Hero RPG (Skyrim, Mass Effect, insert whatever floats your boat)

- Smash Bro's Brawler type.

All are feasible and plausible in their own right. So the question is more like, what direction would they want to take? My guess... despite my dismay, It's probably a Team Based RPG, with Brawler being the second option. Only because Monty has a heavy interest in Final Fantasy and seems like a guy who would enjoy those types of games.

Brawler as a second option is only because if there's one thing Rooster Teeth will know how to do well, it's fighting scenes. So if they do make a video game, they may end up going a brawler route for again - less cost and easier to make.

The last option is over-all the most expensive and most time intensive route for obivious reasons. It will also require the largest amount of personnel in order to pull off properly.
