Blog ] On a Boat | #1 04-23-2013, 09:32 PM Ferne is back with another helping of table scraps meat and popotoes for everyone to dig into. Fernehalwes Wrote:April 23, 2013 Greetings everyone! Ferenhalwes back from the dead to bring you today’s scoop. The problem is, these past few Producer Letter Lives have been so chock-full of crunchy, chocolaty, peanut-buttery goodness, I’m stuck with nothing but table scraps. Luckily, today’s scraps are fit for not just any dog—but a scurvy dog! ARRRRRR! Ahem. I was traipsing about the new and improved Limsa Lominsa this morning when I noticed something. Sure, the city-state had a similar feel to its 1.0 counterpart, but somehow it wasn't quite the same as before. The city-state was more...alive. And then that’s when it hit me—many of the NPCs were DOING something! (And by ‘doing something’ I don’t mean ‘staring off glassy-eyed into the distance until you come along and he tells you in 1000 words or less about how great La Noscean lettuce is, and what he wouldn't give to have a kind adventurer bring him 5 heads.’) Yellowjackets patrolling the streets... Fishers repairing their nets... Sea Wolves doing push-ups with Miqo’te sitting on their backs...wait, wha? Uh...Okay. I’m sure there’s a perfectly good story to go along with this... But that’s not to say there is a lack of everyday situations like... Serving wenches waiting on tables... Peddlers gesturing to potential customers... Unconscious prisoners hanging suspended over the sea while carefree pirates point and laugh at the poor lads' misfortune...wait, wha? Ah, I love this town. Till sea swallows all! Fernehalwes Sounds like Limsa Lominsa is going to be less standing around doing nothing and more Disneyland's Pirates of the Caribbean Ride. This is going to be fun... ~Ellie

To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect. "What makes a strong character is how they deal with their flaws, their fears, their turmoils, their troubles that get in the way. That's what makes them relatable." -- N.C.

I gotta hand it to Disney, they sure know how to make animatronic mannequin's look real! (some of them anyway.) Also, super stoked about Limsa Lominsa! Boat rides all around!
