@Anti-Matter Itโ€™s just Iโ€™ve noticed that a lot of protagonists tend to think with their stomachs or arenโ€™t very smart, thus earning them a lot of snarky comments from other characters. Just why is that?

@Eagly See, I have a bunch of OCs and personas, and every single one of them is smart and loved.

@JadeKitsune I think most characters need to have some kind of flaws to be relatable to the audience. Seeing a character that is good at everything is kinda boring, Mary Sue'ish, as @Eagly mentioned. Take a scientist role for example - to be an interesting character, they have to be smart, but they also have to be a bit excentric, have some kind of quirk, like dr Kleiner from Half Life 2, lovable and smart but also clumsy and excentric (keeps a dangerous creature as a pet). Such quirks are added to every character to make them deeper. A silly over the top sugar happy character might have a hidden super skill that is crucial to team's survival, a normally levelheaded and sensible character might have some weird affection towards candies (and usually gets caught munching on them which makes a classic gag).

It's ok to make any kind of character, though. It's your circus, it's your monkeys.

I must be a less than great mind then because the thought alone makes me want to not have pasta, yellow cheese or ketchup for a week or two, or like 8 months

@ComfyAko @Eagly Iโ€™ve been told I shouldnโ€™t sabotage my creations, so Iโ€™m going to give my persona multiple girlfriends like Iโ€™d planned.

@Eagly Also Kratos is just a force of nature that will literally kill/destroy everything/everyone who stands in his way, which is interesting in its own right.

I still have a lot to learn
I've never seen somebody putting sawdust on pasta and calling it "cheese", for example, so thank you for the nightmares guys

@Eagly yeah, I noticed that when seeing someone play. I didn't really like it, to be honest. I don't want to be a spoilsport or a negative person, but I noticed that many western games tend to aspire to be very emotional nowadays, but they fail spectacularly at it (vide The Last of Us, or God of War)

I kinda liked Kratos for being that angry boi who would just mindlessly murder everything in his path, it was his thing. "Let the Rage of the Gods drive your blades, Kratos". I still remember the door scene

Is there a topic for me to vent my frustrations at?

Gotta go to sleep because tomorrow is not weekend yet. Goodnight, sweet dreams everyone

@Eagly I'll answer tomorrow when I have the time, talking about video games with you all is really enjoyable.
