I've seen some stellar writing in this game, and I've even heard of folks being intimidated by the quality of it. Do y'all feel like you need to be a great writer to play?
I had a great moment in a sim recently that made me think of how much I love collaborative writing. I was playing a creepy doctor NPC named Dr. Kush'in'ik. He was talking to a nurse who had an empty "response" tag. So this is what I wrote:
Lawton: Response
Dr. Kush’in’ik: Ah, splendid.
My scene partner filled in Lawton's lines as:
Lawton: Yes…Doctor. The eyewitness accounts agree that she, excuse me, that Doctor Nis was exposed during a scuffle.
When I wrote the line, I didn't know WHAT the doctor was saying "splendid" to ... but Lawton's line makes him SO MUCH creepier, knowing that he's saying "splendid" to the fact that one of the PCs was just dosed with a potentially-fatal drug.
Anyway all that made me wonder about some of y'all's favorite experiences with this very unique style of writing, great moments that could only happen in SB 118?
