Dual Characters?

[Belle Hibiki]

I'm personally not a fan of this idea, as I think you'll just end up with people keeping a 'main' character slot, and then switching the secondary slot character around a couple times a year, depending on how fast they get bored with whatever current idea they have.

Could work if people invested themselves equally in both characters, but as an incentive to stimulate RP, I feel like it's pretty lacking. You might get some initial interest and play, but I think most of it will die down rather quickly. You'll probably still see the same people on sagas that you've seen before, because no one will want to 'waste' points on their 'alt.'

If the idea is just to give people something different to roleplay, there's always NPCs. I've played as several NPCs in my sagas, and have a couple staples that make up Belle's 'party' and give me some creative flexibility.

edit: this being said, I haven't exactly been active lately, so maybe I don't know what the fuck.
