AggroChat #242 - Voiced vs Silent Protagonist

This week we talk about the topic that has spent the most time so far rolling from show to show because we didn’t feel like we had enough time to properly address it.  We have a Trello board where we stub out future topics, and before Christmas Tam put the topic of Silent versus Voiced protagonists on that board… and we are finally getting around to talking about it.  Not surprisingly we spent almost the entire episode on this one topic as there is a lot of stuff to unpack here about characters and whether or not we are meant to place ourselves into them. We also talk briefly about the Warframe Nightwave alert system that just went into that game.

Topics Discussed:

• Voiced Versus Silent Protagonist
• • Personal Preferences
  • Times when it works and Fourth Wall breaking.
  • Jarring nature of a character you don’t relate to that is supposed to represent you.
  • Classic game examples
• Warframe
• • Nightwave Alert System
