"Censored discussion" is right lmao
Its just one of those things i guess, when I name a protag and get to pick what he does i guess i just get that little bit more invested as this is "my character" so to speak, If its a fixed game with a fixed character with a pre existent personality I can still like the game but that's not "my character" so to speak, idk guess im just as invested in the story as the art and the fact its someone i named and have control over just means when something bad happens to them or they are forced to do something than i wouldn't have made them do it just shows the hand of the author so to speak lol
