Avast!: A GBer's Thread

So, what's your opinion of 2nd person present tense vs imperfect omnicient, Krak?

Answering for Mr. Krak, I feel the variance of the two can, depending on the author/writer, be extremely similar or vastly different. If you have someone else telling the story the way they saw it for a cast of characters, you end up with a bias retelling of the story from an outside party. As we see in The Great Gatsby.

If you have imperfect omniscient, internalized thoughts may be seen through only one person, while normal events displayed for the remaining characters, but instead of receiving your information secondhand, it comes directly from the main character, or protagonist if you will, along with a clearer telling of the story as it takes or took place. As in A Clean, Well Lighted Place.


So...what? Do I win? Where's my gold star, damnit. I didn't take English 2 over the summer to accumulate GEs for nothin'.

Eh, I probably messed it. I haven't slept in over 35 hours.

I'm such the insomniac.

MINE.
 
Avast what?

I have yet to be boarded, and I was so looking forward to it.
 
To the person that suggested gay military porn in re Hanns: THANKYOU! You have given me a wonderful idea for when I'm drinking later on. :D

Oh, ain't it just precious. ~murrflemew~ Which reminds me, fucking...another FF7 game for PS2 is coming out you say? Maybe? Yes? Dirge of Ceberus you ask?

With Vincent Valentine as the main character and such?

Yummy. I must buy a PS2 soon, merely for the playing of such a game.

~curlsup and decides it is finally sleep time~

PRAISE HOJO!
