Watching DNE in ER has been a ride, especially since his relationship with Daisy made me go "Oh he's just like me! :)" and now it's just ...
He REALLY gave his EVERYTHING to the relationship and that hurts so much on a personal level. Good job
I'm really glad I managed to create a story that's had such an emotional impact on 90% of the people who have watched it in full. DNE is a character that is very significant to me.
I've gotten closer to my creative partner and literally met one of my best friends because of him. I've been talking about this conclusion for 9-8~ months with Harmie and I'm very glad all that work has paid off.
It's very difficult to create a concrete story and conclusion when you don't know what is going to happen next environment-wise. We did not have the slightest idea of what the next challenge would be, aka we didn't know what DNE or Daisy would be doing for each entry. It forced us to have our important details be able to be placed at several points of the camp. For example: DNE was originally supposed to die in entry 8! This was changed because of the progress we had made with Daisy and DNE's personal arcs, but even if certain things did not go as originally planned we improvised and created something I'm very proud of. And hey! If DNE is just like you maybe try to avoid a talking computer that's absolutely doomed to the narrative.
