Obligatory Self-Based Characters
post=205118
The last time that I did this was back in 2003 with "Mystic Quest". Though, one thing I can't stand are people that name characters after themselves, and then give those characters the power of God and a tendency to be popular with every single woman they come across (read: sleeping with). Do you really have to prove your inadequacies by turning yourself into an invincible, all-powerful Mary Sue?
Yes, this definitely annoys me. I use self-based characters because of the example I provided- it's easier to assess character situation than it is with characters you've developed yourself. Just because a character is self-based does not make them god of their world, which you as the creator pretty much are. They should be totally limited to everything all your other characters are.
Although, I am curious as to this self-based character that's extremely popular with the ladies.
WTF? Is this for real?
He looks like a zombie to me. Can't believe they did this. Dante from DMC3 partially inspired one of my characters and that was just because he looked badass.

DOING IT! - WEEK SIXTEEN
wip battlers for CC, mostly finished but I'll be respriting Edea.
Problem with FF fangames: you can find a million different versions of characters you don't want, find one crappy one of one you do want, and then decide to sprite it yourself anyway (/edit some other RTP graphic)
Like this one:
(The other Beatrix I have is so pillowy it's insane D:)
I'm also working on Wedge (FF7 version) but I'll wait until he's more refined before I even consider posting P:
Obligatory Self-Based Characters
We all (generally) have at least one, or a couple that start out self-based but evolve through the storyline or some such. Some of us even go as far as naming these characters after ourselves- though on the internet it can sometimes be hard to tell whether or not someone's doing this.
In my personal opinion, they're great especially for beginner writers and developers and even for advanced ones. Who better do you know than yourself, after all? Rather than having to ask 'what would this character say/do in this situation, you can easily ask 'what would I do?'
The aim of this topic: discuss self-based characters of your own, their roles in games, and your opinion on them overall.
I do have one myself that remains mostly self-based. Her name is Kaira -something- and she's generally a bit more confident and less cowardly version of myself. I don't use her often in games but if asked for a character or some such for a cameo I generally give out her picture :)

Usernames and You: Seperate, or...?

My name's just an alternate version of my real name but I do try to keep internet/real life seperate. It really disturbs me when people write my name as 'Kyrsty' on birthday cards.
