Stink
Jimmy
when I was a kid my dad was obsessed with the movie Mars Attacks so we would always name him ACK.but 4ch*n has ruined that word for me so I no longer name him that
>>730784719>Faggot>Nigger>Retard>The Dude
>>730784719Depends. Right now im playing Rune Factory 4 and naming my character Twink has made me kick my feet like a toddler
>>730784719In high school, I went over to a nice but extremely spergy classmate’s house who wanted to show me some trick in Ocarina of Time. When he booted it up, I couldn’t help noticing his file name was simply “DRAGON” in all caps. I can’t explain why, but the secondhand embarrassment was nauseating every time an NPC called him that. I probably should have given him more of a chance but I never went back after that.
>>730787087I just think you didn't like the kid already
>>730786521ACK still makes me think of Bill the Cat
>>730784719>grab a saucepan from the cabinet>use an otomotopoeia of whatever noise happensit just werks
>>730787119I mean, maybe. It was some time ago, so I barely remember anything else about him except his near total lack of facial expressions. I was on the spectrum but this guy was in another league. What really stuck with me was that it’s not even a good name, and I knew instinctually that this was his name in all games. Just seemed lazy and lame, like that kid you know who named himself “Shadow” or “Blade” regardless of context or setting. Idk. I hope he’s doing alright.
>>730784719As a kid I always used to put in my real name. I thought that the game could somehow tell if I was lying
>>730787706kek
I just look up a list of cool german names and choose one.
>>730784719ASSLORD

>>730784719always NIGGERif it doesn't let me then it's not worth playingsimple as
Consult the holy codex
>>730784719The main characters official nameOtherwise a random lore friendly name
>>730784719If it's a pre-established character like Link I use the default name. If it's a character that's supposed to be a self-insert I use a small handful of names I like based on the setting. If it's a multiplayer game, it's Gaydar, and if that's not available, it's Tardar, and if that's banned, it's some kind of pasta.
>>730784719Something related to what I was just playing or watching beforehand. Never fails me, especially when otherwise I would have an aneurysm anytime I have to come up with a name on the spot.
>>730784719My gamertagin porn games though, it's always Big Boss
>>730784719A
My name in all caps
>>730784719Pepito
>>730787339Makes me think of that one sperg on /a/
>>730784719It always weirded me out that this fantasy game has this oddly sci-fi looking menu screen.
>>730784719Dingus is my go to single player name
>>730784719I make new names every time so as to not play the same character twice
something like "you ass", so that NPCs will say "watch out, you ass!".
I named him after my internet handle. Yes, in 1998 I was in fact already cringe.
