How to use your imagination

When your party stays at the Inn overnight, what do they eat?

If you ever catch yourself wondering that, then you know you've formed an attachment to your characters.

With Etrian Odyssey's characters, you only give them a name and a portrait, so no matter how you think of the character, it's technically just your imagination. But even in that case, without your imagination, the character is nothing.

For example, a landsknecht who uses an axe might eat his meat with his bare hands and no utensils, but one who wields a sword might prefer a knife and fork at dinner. You might think differently, but... If you can imagine small details like that, you might find that you enjoy this kind of RPG even more.

The essence is an RPG is using numbers to make calculated decisions, but if you invest those "numbers" with your own feelings, you can spice up the game a little. Think about this:

In your party of five, three characters are dead. Two of them are alive, but they only have a couple of HP left, and no TP. They're certain to die in their next turn, giving you a game over. Number-wise, those characters are useless, but how do you imagine they feel about that? What kind of people are those 2 characters who are about to die? Try to imagine things like that in the brief time before your game ends.

Are they a landsknecht and a ronin, who'll die facing the enemy and laughing? Is it a protector, ordering the weak medic to run with his last breath?

The game over screen looks the same every time, but in your imagination, it could play out very differently.

The game itself isn't that big of a thing; what you imagine for yourself is much more fun. We hope that the player uses this game as a tool, to create dramatic and fun situations in your own minds.

I think a lot about this bit by Kazuya Niinou about how an RPG can be one thing on your screen and another thing in your brain

We need more cyberpunk games where you... aren't just a badass cyber-samurai or gun-toting mercenary. Sometimes it's a little more punk just to *survive* day-to-day in a harsh, unrelenting, world and keeping your spirit intact, without the luxury of escapist violence.

Ludonarrative blah blah blah. Why'd you make it that way? Why'd you make that choice? How did you do it?

super thrilled for this to be my first foray into game development, and I couldn't have asked for a better partner to do it with!

I put a lot of feelings into this one. I hope they reach out to you

also fascinated by the transition to the trap room?? it's nowhere near as jarring or uncomfortable as it is in the game...the way the walls just sort of obligingly fly away to reveal the environment and the choice of music almost give it a serene, majestic sort of feeling...

I love that this captures one of the underappreciated things about yume nikki's horror: things that just sort of sit there staring at you that you can't interact with. drawing a parallel between that and the experience of being trapped in bed with something staring down at you like this is so smart!

Birds and bugs have wings and lay eggs. But angels have wings and dont lay eggs. And snakes lay eggs but dont have wings. So its not wings that make you do that. Its some other thing.

You come across a lone doll. Fine silver scissors pin the diminutive creature to their final resting place. Faded paint and tarnished joints speak of untold time frozen in its repose.

Despite the light long having left its vulpine mask, a painted smile remains.
