Consistency. Consistency. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just like in the real world, everything in your made-up world needs to have a place and a reason to exist. The world we live in informs who we are and how we behave, and in turn, our actions impact and shape the world. For example, in your made-up world there are demons hiding in the forest close to a village. You\u2019d have to wonder how villagers would organize themselves, raise their kids, build their houses, travel. Think of the god(s) they\u2019d pray to, of the rituals. Think of how different people in the village would try to deal with the fear (attack vs. hide) and how those different ways of coping might result in conflicts. If you\u2019re building a fantasy world, what are the rules of the magic in your world? What does \u201cpower\u201d look like, and how has this power shaped society\u2019s beliefs?<\/span><\/p><p><b>Also\u2026 Know when to stop.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Not everything you create will end up on the screen\/page, and that\u2019s alright! The purpose of world-building is to create a reality where your STORY can live in.

What\u2019s in the way of them getting it? How is it challenging for them SPECIFICALLY? What will they learn about themselves during this journey, and how will that journey change them? Is what they wanted in the beginning really what they needed? Do they get it?<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Answering these questions will help you understand what drives your character by identifying the inner demons they must face throughout their journey. The obstacles that you create for your character will ideally force them to face those inner demons. Do they need to find the confidence to declare their love to their classmate? Or the courage to hunt a chimaera? Or do they need to face their own shortcomings and rely on their team\/friends to reach the end?<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In games, unlike other media, the player has the opportunity to slowly peel layers and discover details about the character. It\u2019s more personal because you spend so many hours meshed with the character. This makes this journey even more important! Details become big reveals; backstory fuels the player\u2019s drive.

When crafting them, consider what the choice MEANS to the player\/character more than what it means to the plot. The more the choice matters to the player\/character, the more invested they will be in the eventual payoff.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Another key part of designing choices is making sure you pay them off.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Actions have consequences. You betrayed your friend, and they will betray you. You helped a stranger, and he risks his life to save yours later. The payoff doesn\u2019t have to be massive for every choice, but it should be there, and most importantly, it should be CLEAR to the player that it exists as a consequence of their actions.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One final tip on designing choices would be: <\/span><b>Play with your players\u2019 expectations\u2026 but don\u2019t toy with them<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. If a choice is important and will affect the story tremendously, make sure you build up to the moment! Give it the gravitas it deserves. In contrast, if a choice won\u2019t have a big and long-lasting effect, don\u2019t present it as a key\/pivotal story moment, or you risk the player feeling emotionally manipulated and the payoff feeling disappointing. And if you are set on doing that, do it sparsely (there\u2019s an exception to every rule.)<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6887f22 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6887f22\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What are your strengths in writing and narrative design?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cea7252 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"cea7252\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I love (and, I\u2019ve been told, excel at) crafting tools and systems!

This is important in any storytelling medium, particularly in games. Gameplay comes first, always. If a story element is misaligned with the gameplay, 9 out of 10 times, it is the story element that must be reworked, not the other way around.
