[Spione] Giocare "in character"
Ezio:
Qui Moreno accenna ad un modo per giocare Spione interpretando i personaggi "in character".
I tre link che posta sono vecchierrimi e di lettura non semplicissima.
Dato che tutte le volte che ho giocato Spione ho preso un approccio "dall'alto" sarei veramente curioso di conoscere queste tecniche. Moreno, puoi parlarcene qui, in Italiano?
Ron Edwards:
Hi Ezio,
I will tell you, although in English.
Playing in character is something you can always do, with any character. When you feel a strong identification or inspiration for that character, then speak for them, say what they do, and I hope, do these things in a creative, engaged way.
(The owner of a principal character has veto powers over anything substantial (see the Flashpoint effects lists for what that means) stated for that character by someone else, but notice the very limited nature of that rule. You cannot, for instance, veto a stated action for your principal and say what he or she does instead. Nor is your permission required for anything non-critical stated for your principal.)
It is very, very simple - perhaps too simple when a person has spent their life creating, owning, speaking for, and stating the actions of a single character as the defining act of the hobby.
Think of all the reasons why - the purposes - of creating, owning, speaking for, and stating the actions of a single character. All that effort. All those sheets of paper. All the chapters of the character history. All the numbers. Think about what you do it for, in play.
Now skip all that stupid bullshit, forget that you always associated that purpose with ownership, and simply do it for any character you want, for the simple reason that you feel like you understand that character and have a very strong urge to do it.
That is why the two principals are not necessarily player-characters. Or to put it better, any character becomes a player-character when someone is playing him or her in that way.
You may be running into some trouble because you associate playing a character with creating that character and exerting exclusive ownership rights over him or her. Abandon that association and role-play any character in the story when and how you want.
Spione offers more individual-character role-playing to everyone present than any other game ... because you can always do it when you really want to, with any character in the story.
Best, Ron
Ezio:
Hi, Ron
it's always good to read you ^^
I probably got something wrong in explaining myself or in understanding what Moreno was saying in the other thread. Probably the latter.
I know and use the possibility to "enter" in any charachter, speaking for them and making them protagonist for a scene or more.
I'm also aware of the possibility of spending your narration turn stating only a sentence for a charachter and then pass the turn for someone else to play the answer.
What I was thinking about was a more "classical" approach to the scene.
Last time I played, there was Olga in Operation Shoemaker. She was being interrogated by an HVA official.
Manuela Soriani had the Queen, and was in charge for Olga, I had the Ace and it was my turn in a non-conflict narration.
We reverted for a moment to the classical "back an forth" game: [size=78%] [/size]I started talking in charachter for the official, and Manuela answered talking for Olga.
We exchanged a couple of sntences then I realized what we were doing, stopped the game and resumed the scene stating in a more general way what the Official said and what Olga answered.
There is a technique to continue that scene in the way we were playing it.

Maybe I'm missing something but... why did you stop the scene? What was wrong with that?
I did this kind of dialogue thing sometimes playing and I never thought I was playing wrong... or was I? °__°
Ezio:
Really? I don't remember to have ever played like this, but it's possible that I misremember how I played in the past or a rule of the game.
