Well, if that what they wanted to know, then yes.. you can't change the MC's name mid-game. But honestly, I have only seen that option in a very few games on here so far, and even then, it's usually a third party mod. I think it's a lot more complicated to put that function in when you have a long persistant style game like this with multiple saves. It's not a simple variable switch like in some VN's. Otherwise a name change would mess up any saved games you have... especially if you saved different versions (ie: you were playing as a different MC or even role-playing as different people) You can see that in a lot of VN's where they keep asking you for your name, just to view the gallery scenes.I understand what was meant was: in the beginning you give your character a name (let's say "Puck"), which will be the header of all the text boxes and so on. Then you cannot change it to "Moose". You may set (for most girls) that they will call you "Moose", true, but that does not rename the character.
Also, FWIW, you can change what the girls call you multiple times. It's an option on the staff menu. I missed seeing the last option (custom name) on my first two hires, so I changed them later in the game.
