Survey (First/Third person)
Added 2018-07-05 15:23:04 +0000 UTCHello everyone. It was recently brought to my attention that using third or first person description in dialogues is more important than I thought. So I would like you to take a part in this survey. The results won't change anything (yet), so don’t panic, I just need to know your opinion to make a decision on how I should proceed.
Basically, I want to know how important this is.

Yep, I definitely mixed them up. Unfortunately, I can't change poll answers

2018-07-06 17:46:48 +0000 UTCYou're confusing 1st and 2nd person POV (1st being "He called me a..." etc, 2nd being "he called you a..."). Combining 1st and 2nd often works, but throwing in 3rd throws things off. Easy way to think of it is 1st is the character talking/thinking, 2nd is addressing the character like the player is the character. Voted 1st/2nd, either/both of them seem fine.

2018-07-06 17:02:02 +0000 UTCif your intent is to have the player be the character than using first person helps to immerse them into the story , if the intent is to just tell a story about someone then 3rd person is ok . in this case for all intents and purposes the player is Kira .... my 2 cents on the matter

2018-07-05 17:59:53 +0000 UTCWhat's really the most important thing is be consistent. (Also, I know this is being picky but your example is actually second person. First person would be "He called me . . .")
