Adding more personality to a character?
Any character in the game that doesn't seem to be very complete? They need more of a story behind their background? They seem like a flat character? What would you add to their character?
Hmm, for Will, in SI, he seems to be very flirtatious with women. I'd add something for his reason why. The least he'd say is that his father taught him to respect women well.

Maria- How did she get so timid?
All AP Bachelor/ettes- About half their dialogue is them saying, "I LOVE YOU OMNONOMNOM!~<3333"
Vaughn- He needs a reason to be so anti-social. pbbt xD
Will would be ruined if they gave him depth. He's the perfect Fairy Tale Prince. xD He just needs to be 1) Good Looking 2)Charming 3)Have a white horse
He has all 3, so he's perfect.

Hurrhurr, I agree. Ohohoh, that was very good said, about Will. He's perfect~ <3LexyJenrex wrote:Vaughn- He needs a reason to be so anti-social. pbbt xD

Vaughn is perfect!
His reasons for being anti social isn't something that he'd say "Hmm! I think I'll be anti social from now on!"
I should know because I use to be anti social. During that time, I had low self esteem. Because of that, I hardly talked to people, and tried to act tough and mean if they talked to me.
I'm still a little anti social because I'm just comfortable being by myself now.. xD I'm basically a loner.
Vaughn.. he could be anti social because he had a rough childhood... And he just has a hard time expressing his feelings, so he tries hard to hide it... Mirabelle even says he has a hard time expressing emotions when you marry him in IoH.

Most characters in HM have very vague pasts or personality traits. There's no real mystery to be solved behind what made them the way they are (there are a few exceptions, like several of the characters in 64). Maybe it's intentional so people project themselves onto the characters... it would be more interesting to have stronger personalities and fuller backstories, though.
So I say almost all of them could do with a little more info. But it's not a requirement, it's just HM >.>

I think that the personality should be SUCKED out of the bodies of the changed characters from 64 into MT because... well MT is vat it is. BAD. oho...
I agree with 64 Maria because she's pretty much the only girl who doesn't really have a background in terms of why she's shy or whatever. I mean come on, she's the mayor's daughter. You'd THINK that she would be outspoken.
I'd also love to know more about Lyla. I mean why is she living in a place all by herself, why is she always so happy and such, why flowers?
Don't know who else. Obviously yeah everyone needs a personality boost. But those 2 I'm most interested in off of the top of my head.

All I have to say is...Vaughn needs a reason to be anti-social. Once again, it could be my whole, "I'm a guy and don't see what half the HM loving population" sees in him vendetta against him, but I just think he needs more of a reason. Besides that, I'm not much of a critic, so I'm pretty much fine with the rest of the characters.
Well, I think his reason for being anti social is just more psychological. What occurred in his life caused him to be this way.TrippleJ wrote:All I have to say is...Vaughn needs a reason to be anti-social.

He had a rough childhood, so he learned to depend more on himself, thus he doesn't like talking to people... Which means he's anti social.
