hello forums
im paulie, a chef.
i'm 37, cause i hate when people think im some teen. so, long time gamer. i love playing everything from puzzle to fps. rpgs have always been my favorite though cause i've always thought of them as fighting books. awesome fighting games like D&D i also played. i've always enjoyed creative writing and being able to add as much life or depth to something at my leisure. i already have a bunch of stuff i've written out in the past and instead of trying to find a group of people to play it. i wanna take the right steps to adapt it to a rad game any single player could enjoy. but i just wanna take my time doing it.
for the non game stuff. i grew up around computers, windows 3.1 and dos were my norms back then. so i've been interested in learning more about about i can do with them as a tool and such.
i'm really looking for like a list of things i really need to learn if i wanna do this. and do i need to learn anything in any specific order?
thanks for your time if you read,
any response is welcomed.

I'm not a reader, but I want to learn to write for video games

If so how do you think one would go about doing so? Is it feasible? How would one go about improving in this field? I've never really been interested in books as a medium since I'm a very visual person, but I really want to write at least a decently engaging story for my game.
like anything, i'd say start by trying to improve a little at a time. for example, take a scene from a game your working on, or a game you like to play, especially if its got a good intro. like when you first walk into a tavern and meet someone.
write out the dialog that happens, put yourself in one of those characters shoes. since you can't hear voices or see constant facial expressions, use your vocab to enhance the sharp and softer tones of a scene. with just perspective and vocab alone i feel like you could elevate any writing greatly, and the rest would just be to keep practicing.
