Karzak Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 K, here is a new topic for those of you that want to discuss if it exists and what it constitutes. Have good fun! HA! Perhaps you are not the best person to spearhead such a discussion. Let's keep the T&A in FanTAsy ***Posting delayed, user on moderator review*** Why Bio Why?
JJ86 Posted February 16, 2004 Author Posted February 16, 2004 I won't partake in this discussion but I would rather that the discussion take place here for those of you that need to get it off your chests. Its a reasonable request.
poolofpoo Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 do you know of any tools one can use when writing a non-linear story? Lois: Honey, what do you say we uh...christen these new sheets, huh? Peter: Why Lois Griffin, you naughty girl. Lois: Hehehe...that's me. Peter: You dirty hustler. Lois: Hehehehe... Peter: You filthy, stinky prostitute. Lois: Aha, ok I get it... Peter: You foul, venereal disease carrying, street walking whore. Lois: Alright, that's enough!

Gromnir Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 you do not write a non-linear story. can't be done. the attempt prevents possibility of success. what you can do is create a system or environment where a person is able to experience a story that is non-linear. mmorpgs with a minimum of scripted events. is probably the best example we can come up with. the designer creates a unique environment with its own physics and rules... places some limits on participant actions for purpose of maintaining viability of the environment. allows environment to be populated. then step back and see what happens. *shrug* HA! Good Fun!

Raymondo2000 Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 you do not write a non-linear story. can't be done. the attempt prevents possibility of success. Bulls***, all you need to do is write/flowchart all possible outcomes. Level 1 of the temple of pwnage Start Jake starts in a big room full of chairs and 2 doors in front of him. If Jake goes into Door 1 If Jake goes into door 1 then he is killed by a 1000 orcs. If Jake goes into Door 2 if Jake goes into door 2 he wins the Necklace of Pwnage which advance him into level 2 of the temple of pwnage. Word is a great software for writing stuff.
Gromnir Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 that is not writing a non-linear story. please read the other thread with virtually the same name to be seeing why. HA! Good Fun!
