StaceyPowers Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 When you create a new character in an open world game, how do you name them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingpotato Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 It depends on the game, in Skyrim I'm Ragnar (Vikings TV series). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I either go with my nickname or screen name typically. My nickname is Panda due to my love of bamboo. The Blackangel is a name that I've had for over 20 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Executor Akamia Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 If it's one where I can't play with other people in any capacity, I usually use my real name. In ones where multiplayer options exist, I usually go with my usual screen name, Akamia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DylanC Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Like Akamia, I usually use my real name for characters in RPGs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 If the game has its own suggestion, most of the time I'll just go with that. But my previous statement still stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerielle del Rosario Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I would mix my names like Lle, Aer, Rea, and etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 It depends on the type of game, type of character and sometimes, it depends on my mood. For example, if I'm trying to troll someone in-game I'll add part of their name "killatrash" or something along those lines. My vampiric battlemage's name in Skyrim is Drakul.

skyfire Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 I think naming based on the ancient culture names or say the tribes which were documented yet destroyed can be a good change of routine I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I do occasionally give my characters a ridiculous name for a certain challenge I created for myself to complete in-game. For instance, I have a Skyrim character named FrisbeeBoy and he uses a throwing weapon mod but it looks like a Frisbee. It hardly does any damage normally but with buffs it can output some ridiculous damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
