I named my party after my friends, do you do this
I only name the protagonist after myself, the rest are just interesting names that I can easily associate with each character.
>>12523558Canon names only
>>12523565This, and if they don't have then I use their job as a name. Warr, Tief, Wmag, Bmag, Pala and so.
>>12523558I did when I was a kid but I don't have friends anymore so I just name the protagonist after myself and then use the default names for every other character.
>>12523558No I like to make up shitty fantasy names like Droglor or Alfrey, and when I run out of ideas I start naming them similar names, like Berhtwald, Reinwald and Thorwald and pretend they're all brothers.
I always name them after my favorite politicians

>>12523558i named all my diablo characters after strippers i used to fool around with
>>12523558this is perfect, good work op
I've been thinking, when you name the characters the game just says Ana is a "girl". I wonder how many little japanese boys named her after their sisters not knowing she would be a love interest.
no, breaks my immersion too much
>>12523859In Dragon Quest II which directly influenced Mother, has a party of 2 boys and a girl. They are cousins, but it's easy to imagine sexual tension and even competitiveness between the boys.
>>12523565I knew a kid who always changed the characters names in games like the more character based Final Fantasy games, which isn't a big deal, they give you the option for a reason, but he would always use HIS names in conversation so nobody knew what he was on about. Like we'd be talking about how to get Squall or Tifa's ultimate weapon and he'd keep asking us or bragging that he got Kevin and Becky's
>>12523897kek based kid
>>12523859and then a whole generation of nips grew up to write manga about fucking their sisters. good job nintendo!
>>12523897Based
>>12523558No, it's confusing to have every character referenced as Retard in the logBut seriously, it's this, because I don't play The Sims: >>12523865
>>12523558I wanted to name them after the Seinfeld characters (I've never seen a single episode) but the game didn't allow me to name Lloyd George so he had to be Jorge. That's better than SMT1, where I named my female character "Alice" and was thoroughly confused when I found out there is a character in the game already named that.
>>12523558i used to name them with random shit usernames i used online for MC. then rename party member depending on their looks. but once i started playing with walkthrough i use default or canon names.
>>12523558I do th is
>>12523565I think I lost my aspergers at some point because I suddenly stopped being like this.
>>12525080It's way more autistic to use your own name or even worse oc names, as Earthbound made it, Canon names are the "Don't care" option
