[QUOTE="Zaruthustran, post: 997862, member: 1457"] I like the expanded dialogue, but please don't go overboard. What I like most about [I]reading[/I] your story hour is the sense that I'm *there*, like some kind of observer who is both distant and close. It's the same feeling I get when I read a really good book or a watch a really good movie. My love for the verisimiltude of your story hour should come as no surprise, since for over a year I've been clamoring for a novelization of your campaign. So that's why I voted "could get tedious". The out of character comments, or too much meaningless back and forth, pull me from the imagined reality of your world and remind me that I'm looking at the glow from an electron gun on a computer monitor while at work. I [u]hate[/u] being reminded that I'm at work. That said, I also really enjoy the out-of-character behind-the-scenes stuff. That's like the "bonus features" on a good DVD--like witty and interesting commentary. But you don't want director's commentary on your first viewing of a movie, and I don't want out of character or mechanical stuff in the post update. Hope this feedback was valuable. Thanks for the thrilling entertainment, and keep up the great work! -z [/QUOTE]
