About Killer Trait's MC

Hey, everyone! Decided to delete the previous poll I did, after all. 

Killer Trait will keep having an invisible MC as it's been up to now. I don't have enough budget to commission more art for an MC atm (I need to think about Oz's & others' CGs first & foremost). Polls are just one of the ways I use sometimes to get info/explore possibilities for future projects. With this one I was curious to know people's thoughts.

I know I probably sound like a broken record by now, but, please, keep in mind that, no matter how customizable an MC is (appearance-wise or personality-wise), they're still not going to be relatable to everyone. At the end of the day, it's just impossible to please everyone. And this is something that happens to all gamedevs, even those who have MCs with more established appearances and/or personalities.

I know that having MCs with a lot of customization (appearance-wise, personality-wise or both) is super cool and adds to the charm in a game (I play games like that too!) but it's never easy to add them. Adding customization requires a lot of research, time, effort, assets (in the case of appearance customization) and work in order to make it possible. What might seem very simple at a glance is still not easy to make. 

Writers, for instance, also have to consider the way they write characters in a way that's plausible; especially if their stories have a lot of plot. The MCs would still need to have somewhat of a base personality/be their own character for these to work. 

I'm still not sure what I'll do with future projects that aren't Killer Trait or Potion Pleasing, but I would love to make a game with a more established MC one day. One that you could only change their name & pronouns or sth like that. I still don't know and it's something to think about in the future.

At the end of the day, what I strive to do the most is telling good stories. And I want to improve day after day. I'll have to keep researching and write more to keep my journey going. Will do my best with what I have! 💪
