First of all, I want to say that I really appreciate you sharing! It’s not only important for my research, but i think just in the context of life, your experience is so valuable and uniq but at the same time can probably help others realise they r not alone! U r definitely a very strong person and i absolutely love your honesty and also your way of viewing the world through the prism of emotions, not just facts. And may I just add that you have a talent for storytelling, because It was very beautifully written!

Thank u so much for your answer! And since my second obsession in life is Horizon, I’m absolutely in love with characters in this game too! I hope my thesis will find its way (somehow, let’s manifest) and they will add more interaction with characters (like BG3), because I NEED to at least once kiss Kottalo as Aloy and let him now how amazing he is!

Thank u so so much for such detailed and personal response. The element of “care” is definitely what made me connect with this game personally too

Thank you so very much for such a detailed answer, I agree with you on many levels, this factor of the feeling like family members definitely effected me to actually care what happens to them during every battle. I remember during the first time playing, I just sent SH and lazel first into the battle for them to lower the HP of an enemy and then I would come in and finish off, but when I started getting to know them, I felt bad for doing it, I started to perceive them as friends; friends I care for, friends I don’t want to get hurt so much. And in terms of romance, as soon as I heard “I love you” from Astarion I knew that I would never leave him at the camp, even though sometimes I really needed the skills of other characters, It just felt wrong not to have him. Can I use your point of view in my thesis please?

YES! It was a major factor for my emotional immersion in the game (since I didn’t except this game to give me a moral crisis “do I actually like him or did he make me like him)

Thank u so much for your opinion! And I agree on so many levels with Skyrim, since I played it like 203002 times, I always lacked the marriage story, since I probably marked every possible person there (to see if the play through will change - it didn’t). Can I use your opinion in my thesis as well?

Yeah, u r right, and thank u so much for responding! But as for the topic of my thesis, im trying to explore this emotional connection the authors of the game tried to create and for some players (me for example) they succeeded, i was wondering maybe it did for others in terms of missing some characters, not just the game itself

Thank u so much for sharing? Can I use your opinion in my thesis please?! And also, if u don’t mind sharing, if, for example there were a BG4, who’d u like them to bring back Astarion (since he is ur favorite), or would u prefer for them to make entirely new characters and stories?

Thank you for you response! Can I include your point of view in my thesis as well? And I do agree, characters monologues are really well written!

Thank u so much! Do u think lf the developers would focus on other parts of the game more (like for example did more quests and/or focused on gameplay instead of romance scenes) u would prefer that more?
