this for JA? keep it short and sweet man, the personality is what's most important.
It's only two paragraphs thus far! I just am not used to having to fit things into the timeline of a canon I'm not familiar with so I've spent a lot of time looking around the Pacific Rim wiki.
there's a timeline linked to the comm dude
all the info you need n one place
(especially since vi had to change a few things a bit to make them fit)
like the game is pacrim inspired but not 100% set to canon
I know, I looked at that. But there's a lot of stuff I don't know that goes beyond timeline and I just want to make sure I don't do anything that contradicts game info.
Don't worry, I'm not going to overplan and tl;dr. I just want to make sure I'm not half-assing this either.
hahaha dude you are worrying too much again. it's good that you care tho, you're always so into stuff I gotta admire it
wait I thought you already submitted the app actually
do you need me to tag the TD back and forth quickly toight or anything?
You sure did. I've been so busy tagging the test drive that I 100% hadn't touched the app.
cause I can do that I didn't get to go into the city with the others cos I got sick
lol it's all good I'm doing mine tonight too
Nah, it's fine! I have plenty of other tags, I'll probably use his thing with Sugane as the sample, that's the longest.
I thought Vi said you had submitted it but she must've meant someone else I was tagging with
I like Chelsea's better quality wise but it's only 2 tags so far, so. /shrug
link as many as you want and you only need 5comments total so
...I'm being nosy again huh
She must've. Either that or she's delusional. Or got a notif for me asking a question I need for history and assumed it was an app.
I'M EXCITED TOO THOUGH just also repeatedly headdesking at my inability to write histories
When you're summarizing lots of events in a short space, I find it hard to avoid the boring trap of "A happened. Then eventually B and C kind of there was some other shit too but no one cared about that"
lol nah I would bet money I just misheard her I often tune people out tbh
mm I tend to just pick like a couple big events as far as history goes and leave the rest out
but I also generally play characters who've only had like 5 major life changing events so
Yeah, but there's still the stylistic problem of making it an interesting readable section and not just a bullet point timeline that happens to look like sentences.
BUT I'm just whining instead of writing now. They aren't heinous, they are necessary, blah blah.
haha nah it's cool. I whine when I have to read stuff, tbh. writing is easy, but reading...that's tough.
Dear god, I'm browsing other people's stuff and the personality sections go on for days
I mean I can tl;dr but. Eesh.
show a basic understanding
I've had plenty of convos with Vi about this stuff and she's not looking for shittons of tl;dr just that you're consistent in your characterizations etc
you'll be fine man don't sweat it
ad stop looking at other people's apps it's always a bad idea
just say what you want to say and you'll have it down
I'm working on it! I'm about half done with history and I think I'm almost done with personality.
Which means it'll probably take another two hours or something stupid so I should go to bed and finish it tomorrow, ugh
lol I have 2 paragraphs of history
Shhhhhhhhhh I'm getting to the parts of his personality that AREN'T embarrassing!
