A movie by Amazon? Maybe, but I suggest CGI animation because actors can get old and recast is easier.
Yeah, WotC would be insane not to cut a deal with them on this. Critical Role is a huge booster for 5E and Wizards is licensing video games all over the place anyway. If CR were to come out with a video game that didn't have the Dungeons and Dragons brand plastered all over it, it would be a huge missed opportunity for Wizards.I mean, WotC is seriously ramping up to be a video game developer. Given their connections to the Critical Role crew, and the Critical Role crews industry contacts...maybe they are already working with WotC.
Though there are a lot of game genres they could go for that would not need much D&D material to be playable with their own IP.
I'm sure WotC would love to give it some official D&D branding. Either way, I'd be immensely surprised if it doesn't end up a 5e CRPG. Only other options I could see having a realistic chance are a visual novel or a gamebook-esque text RPG, but that's probably too low-budget for them (and audience expectations) at this point.Excited to see what type of game they go towards with this. RPG would make the most sense, but then people would likely expect something 5e-related. WotC seems eager to roll with CR, I wonder if that would include letting them adapt their system for a video game without much fuss?
Could be a 3/4 view RPG revival game, sure...I'm sure WotC would love to give it some official D&D branding. Either way, I'd be immensely surprised if it doesn't end up a 5e CRPG.

Those action variants strike me as not really keeping their audience in mind, as does the notion of using another system.Could be a 3/4 view RPG revival game, sure...
Could also be a Demon Soul or Dark Alliance style Action RPG. Or an Iron and Blood style Fighting Game. Or a Golden Axe style Sidescrolling Beat 'em Up.
Could also be a Final Fantasy style JRPG heavily westernized with 5e mechanics. Maybe Final Fantasy Tactics?
Elder Scrolls Style Sandbox RPG?
Bioware RPG ala Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Kotor... That'd be freaking amazing. And they've -all- got connections with that company, to boot.

A tactics-style game would rock, especially with them having such a large roster of characters (PC/NPCs/Guests + whatever news ones they would want to make). Might be too niche though, since the only game with a somewhat similar style that seems to sell especially well is the Fire Emblem series.Could also be a Final Fantasy style JRPG heavily westernized with 5e mechanics.

I don't want to get too off topic but could you explain what you mean by moral inversion of political entities? Especially inversion to what?
