I Have An Idea For A Genre Of Game.
I have an idea for a genre of game.
idk what medium the games would be in, I guess whatever supports it, but anyways.
So you have a few different povs, and a few different characters that the pov isn't in. Kinda like those games where during the different chapters you play as different characters, but with a twist: You don't control the character, the character in the chapter has near full control over their own actions, you just talk to them and guide them. My thoughts on how this would work would be like; you see a room full of different objects, character goes to walk past one that catches your eye, you go "oh, wait, what was that? Go look, on the table there!" And the character (depending on their personality) will either go look for what you're trying to find, or will ignore you.
You playing the game would only have proper control during "possessions": Short periods of time in which one or more players can take over the character's body and steer them in the right direction or walk them through pain that would have otherwise debilitated them or even to do one of those quick time events in a combat situation. Of course possessing a character has consequences on mental and physical health and how they're viewed by others, but sometimes that's necessary.
Also, the characters you're able to guide/possess would be the only ones able to hear you, either that or the characters are only able to hear you when it's their turn to be guided.
It could also be done so that one person is in control of one character and other people are guiding that player, to add to the fun and maybe make it easier to make as a video game.
I have no idea if this concept already exists, but I think it would be cool!

“fanon is so much better then canon” bestie, you literally took a complex character with personality flaws and turned him into a living stereotype.

I've been practising digital painting lately and this is one of the pieces to come of it
soooooo, stories gotten a little difficult to write, so for the moment have the weirdo in action(?)!
How close to the description did I get?
So I have a description of one of my characters, and a story/official art of him on the way! So Here's...
"Jackson Kinderlune was an odd boy. With pale skin littered in scars and callouses. Startling jungle green eyes, and moonlight silver hair that tumbled to below his chin like white rapids.
He wore a loose gray shirt that went down to his hips, and deep blue shorts that stopped just above his knee & were often confused as a skirt. The pair of dark ash boots he wore went up to just below his knees, and had a little pocket on the inside (the side of the boot that faces the other foot, not within the boot, that would be uncomfortable) of each to hold tiny snacks and his wallet. Little buttons shaped like a square, circle, and triangle (respectively) changed how much the boots way.
A small dagger sat on the outside (the side facing away from the other boot) of each boot. Designed to look as though they were a painting on the side.
A large four-pocketed backpack rested on his back at almost all times."
wtf is with all the "oppressive and hellish planet called Earth." Bullshit? The only reason it's "oppressive" and "hellish" is because of other human beings who are destroying it. This earth is magical and beautiful and I hate every single prompt or show or anything that says otherwise if not simply for the fact that humans are making it that way!
We need to save the planet not flee it! And if you think otherwise, even as a joke or for a fun story idea, than you're part of the problem, and that is exactly what I would tell those aliens.
I feel like I'm overreacting and maybe too tired to filter my rage isn't the best place to have this rant, it's kinda been a buildup of multiple things boiling over rn.
That's also what I would tell those aliens.
