#ides of march #adding this to my collection of images to show my family anytime they ask me about tumblr #it will do nothing to explain but it will be funny #pretty sure no one in my family actually know what tumblr is for #they just get the occasional ‘I saw this on tumblr and had to show you’#what is it?#one of the best analyses of hamlet I’ve ever seen #a squirrel video #memes that require a decade’s worth of meme history #the saddest thing you’ve ever seen #a picture from Norway #batblob Batman drawings #it’s anyone’s guess #none of them know and it’s hilarious

just found one of my favorite pieces of writing advice when it comes to interactive fiction, i think if you've read literally any of my work, it will be pretty obvious how much i use this in my own writing. i actually couldn't remember where i read this for the first time and on a whim i went through my twitter likes and found it in a thread. i'm going to transcribe it for ease of reading, but this is all coming from Alexander Freed (@/AlexanderMFreed on twitter)

he has a website here with other compiled writing advice about branching narratives and game design, though he never posted this there and hasn't really updated recently (but still check it out. there's some specific entries about writing romance, branching and linear & other game writing advice)

original twitter thread here

It's Tuesday night and I feel like teaching some of what I've learned in 15 years of branching narrative video game writing. Let's go in-depth about one incredibly specific subject: neutral / fallthrough / catchall response options!

Player ownership of the protagonist in choice-based branching narrative games (a la BioWare, Telltale, mobile narrative games, etc) is a vital aspect of the form.

The ability for the audience to shape a Player Character, to develop that character's inner life in their own mind, is unmatched in any other medium.

The Player determines the character's actions and THE MOTIVATIONS for those actions. The character's psychology can literally be as complex as the Player can imagine. However, this works best when there's enough space for the Player to develop those motivations. No game can offer enough options to support every interpretation imaginable; much of the character has to live in the Player's head, without necessarily appearing on the screen.

That's complicated. We're going to unpack it.

Generally, when presenting choices to a Player, we want those choices to be as interesting and compelling as possible.

But compelling, dramatic choices tend to be revealing of character. And no game can support hundreds of options at every choice point for every possible character motivation a Player might imagine.

This sort of narrative CANNOT maintain its integrity if the Player is forced to constantly "rewrite" their characterization of the Player Character on the fly. You want your Player to feel like they have more than enough viable options at any given moment.

At the simplest level of writing, this is where "fallthrough" responses come in.

In the examples above, each moment contains a response which furthers the story but doesn't imply a huge emotional choice for the Player. The Player is asked to choose A or B, agree or disagree, but can sidestep the issue altogether if desired.

These "neutral" responses are vital if both A and B don't appeal to the Player... or if, perhaps, the Player likes A but not the WAY A is being expressed. Milquetoast option C works for anyone; thus, the Player is never forced to break character because of a lack of options.

Questions work well for this sort of neutral option. Tacit agreement and dead silence also serve, in certain sorts of stories--as a Player, I know what's going on in my silent character's head and the game won't contradict it.

The important thing is that I'm never forced to take a path that's outright WRONG for my character. Even if other characters misinterpret the Player Character's motivation, my character's inner life remains internally consistent.

"Neutral" responses aren't the only ways to go, though. Some responses are appropriate for any character because they're tied to the base character concept.

Here, for example (from @/seankmckeever's X-Files), the Player is a marine on a mission. The Player can respond abrasively to her partner's fear or look into the issue (out of compassion or genuine belief), but our fallthrough is actually the TOP response.

There's no version of our marine who would absolutely break character by picking "Stay calm and on mission." It's not blandly neutral; rather, it reinforces aspects of the character we can be sure of and gives the Player an option if nothing else works.

Different sorts of narratives will use different sorts of fallthroughs. A comedy might treat the option to say something funny as a fallthrough, of sorts--it's entertaining and will never violate the characterization the Player has created.

In a quest-driven RPG, a fallthrough response can often boil down to "How do I move to the next step of this quest?"

That said, the strongest moments in a narrative will often have no "fallthrough" response at all. They'll work by creating multiple responses that, by overlapping, cover all reasonable Player Character actions while still leaving room for the Player to ascribe motivation.

#cataloguing this before twitter explodes LOL #only thing i changed was the 'Player' pronouns because :-)#this was so fucking frustrating to do the tumblr post editor fucking sucks ass and kept breaking with every picture i added #i did add img descriptions... i did my best #also i cannot believe this is the guy that wrote the rogue one novelization #one of the best star wars books hands down #umm anyways #writing #interactive fiction

I meant to post this when I had my annual watch of Over the Garden Wall in October, but then I never did because I think I partly forgot and partly was worried about being annoying. But y’know I still love this show and want to share it, so here you have it.

My favorite Over the Garden Wall moments (at least all the ones I could find in gif form):

#i had one more with Quincy Endicott #but tumblr wouldn't let me post it #because mobile has a picture limit #over the garden wall #no writing #best show #it's all so out of pocket #and i love it #and yet this show is so deep #and it means so much to me #also so quotable #i love how it is so silly one moment #and so horrifying the next

I see your Klavier: “Sparkle on!” art and counter with Simon: “Fuck off.” art

Here’s a still:

And here’s the OG post 😋

#1) Would you believe me if I said that I sketched this around a year ago in my OS notes? and #2) I think it would be fun if each prosecutor had their own Sparkle on! day and theme #it was Klav’s idea to like brighten the office or whatever and Simon Was Not into it and so when asked did what he does best (be an ass)#and Klav was sooo thrilled he participated he puts the picture up every week and Simon is so pissed off that his strategy didn’t work #3) ty to my friend June for the bg suggestion I think it’s GREAT #4) when I first sketched this I was like tee hee funny but when you rlly think about the words he’s saying it HURTS.#anywho 😋#Simon Blackquill #ace attorney #art meme #sparkle on! it's wednesday! don't forget to be yourself!#digital art #animated #fan art #procreate #purple #artists on tumblr #I kinda gave him Chandelure line flames 👀
