Really Enjoyed NPC area background/lore dialogue

Post by Chosen Son » Sun Jul 05, 2020 1:51 am

I have been making an effort to play more attention to npc dialogue and have greatly enjoyed when I have read, and regret not having payed greater attention it the past. Even small things like a sibuyad npc talking about another caravan lost in the sands, only for you to run into it later in the lost desert makes the world seem far more alive then before I paid attention. Also earlier this night I really enjoyed the "lessons on how to rp a character in arelith" given in IC form, by the art critics, and other npcs expanding on what makes a good performance, character arcs, giving others time to shine, giving characters flaws and nuance. Also found the dialogue of "wizards having performance issues before a demanding audiance" rather humorous.

Will continue paying more attention to the dialogue IG, but wanted to give a shout out to all those who have done the writing.
