Suggestion: IPs / Franchises / Brand system

[LuisBravoC]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. No.

Describe the solution you'd like I was thinking that having a system for game franchises / IPs with also their own fan base and expectations based on this franchise, and is different than a new or different IP. This could also add alternatives such as creating spin-offs and not just sequels.

Describe alternatives you've considered A consolidated IP with a long time on the market could have more fans and people willing to buy a certain game. Some franchises could create hype over time without the need to make an announcement because the public expects a new game. This could give the opportunity to roleplay a little more and allow the creation of spin-offs of certain IPs, this could be used to change the genres in a more credible way or simply give more immersion in different ways.

Additionally, I suggest one last thing to complement this idea: IP / Franchise family tree to view all deliveries of a certain IP and its franchises in a more visual way.

Additional context

• When creating a new game, a new IP is created. The name of this could be based on the name of this first game (Could it be modifiable perhaps? ).
• With the franchise family tree you can visually see the chronology of the franchise showing all the games connected in the form of a tree, in the main branch obviously the main games and on the sides the spin-offs or so.
• Some IPs could be very loved and expected so they could spontaneously generate hype after a few years without releasing a game of this IP.
• Certain studies could have more affinity to certain IPs since they are the authors or those who have developed the most games from this IP.
• Additional idea: Lend IPs to other companies to develop games and you earn a percentage or a fixed cost. Or borrow an IP and also pay a percentage or a fixed cost BUT if this IP has many fans and you make a good game your company can gain many fans.

These are some ideas, it would be great if they could be implemented. I hope I'm not too ambitious.
