It’s Firefly’s fault, these characters are all based on Kaylee and the crushes game devs had on her

God of war and TLOU did walking dialogue and then every game keeps trying to get it. But it’s either over done or there isn’t more substance. GOW 18 walking chats are brilliant.

You know what's tragic is like.. I wouldn't mind a character that's really excited about the stuff they're seeing. It's pretty human to freak out and be excited by new and interesting things.
It's just this fake cartoonish dialogue that makes it so bad.

The new GOW has this writing and it made me fucking cringe hard.

I heard someone compare these type of games with modern Netflix movies, like expensive production, good looking graphics, fun gameplay, but written so that you can still follow the plot while scrolling tiktok in one hand. That about sums it up

mass effect did it right by having other dynamics of researchers and scientists in other games. like Miranda, mordin, and Tali. all characters loved their projects but they have VASTLY different personalities associated instead of immediately making them the quirky awkward scientific gimmick.

Why do modern writers always make protags THAT DON'T SHUT UP. I just want peace and quiet and total focus on the task at hand. I don't need a "Hey [Comments on action]" or "[Hint at Puzzle that is almost done repeated 100x in less than a minute". STOP. THAT'S NOT FILLING DEAD AIR, THAT'S CLUTTERING DIALOGUE. THAT PULLS PEOPLE OUT OF THE IMMERSION INSTEAD OF PULLING THEM IN. LET THE SCENE BREATHE WITH SILENCE.

it's like they don't trust the player to understand that this is the Science Character™ if they don't make her say it 100 times in every interaction. i promise you if you just let her be a scientist we will all understand that she likes science 😭🙏 and hell maybe give her another character trait too, if you're up for it

It's possible to have a nerdy science type without making them annoying. Like Emily Pope in Control; she's clearly a bit obsessed with her research and comes across as odd, but she's still professional and mature and actually helpful.

Veilguard is just the same, the only characters that speak normally are the villains 💀

This is a large part of what ruined Dragon Age Veilguard for me, especially considering the (better) prior games in the series…

as a games writer for the past 10+ years... I genuinely don't know why so many of my colleagues do this. I don't understand why it keeps happening.

Why do modern games think people want a character like this yapping in your ear constantly? The original mass effects actually respected the silence that serves as the foundation of creativity and had long stretches where nobody says anything or tries to guide you.
