I have! And I often do roleplay in Fallout and Elder Scrolls! So that makes a lot more sense to me and I don’t know why I didn’t look at it that way. Seems so obvious of a connection…

Even being open minded to other perspectives I find it hard to think about how writers can fully immerse themselves in each character enough to know for sure their own real life biases aren’t painted into said character.

“Until the darkness claims us”
In games and shows I tend to focus on one character and really dive into their overarching story. I often can’t fathom how a writer can ‘become’ so many different characters and keep them interesting and not just an NPC in the protags story if you will.
15.07.2025 21:44 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I got one for ya. How do you keep different characters from becoming…stale? Boring? Similar to another?
Meaning making sure their personality stays the same across the story and doesn’t either become bland or change unrealistically?
A snowy, evergreen covered mountain vista in the background. At the top, the Take This sword and shield logo. In the middle, a mobile device pop up notification that reads: "Reminder. Rest is deserved, not earned. Okay." At the bottom of the whole image, text reads: "Take This will be closed for our summer break from June 30 - July 4"
Now that it's officially summer, it's almost time for Take This's summer break. We will close for operations on Monday, June 30 and reopen on Monday, July 7.
Remember: rest is 𝒅𝒆𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒆𝒅, not earned. Take care of yourselves.
Me tapping those three dots and then “show less like this”
Bsky: “I’m boutta ruin this man’s whole timeline by showing him more of that exact thing”
It’s mostly a film thing I believe. (Film meaning all media for entertainment purposes). It’s “mesmerizing” to look at a moving spiral imagery to depict someone, the viewer/protagonist/etc being hypnotized.

What’s your favorite one-liner from any game character?
“Too many people have opinions on things they know nothing about. The more ignorant they are, the more opinions they have” -Thomas Hildern of Fallout: New Vegas
“He’s dead, Jim” from Gex Enter The Gecko. Or any number of one liners from that game

2) PROFIT
My 4yr old was taking out all my credit cards from my wallet. With each one taken out, he goes “here’s ONE dollar!” And gives it to me.
Thanks buddy. You don’t need to remind me some of these are maxed out and I’m broke 😅😭
