[QUOTE="Tsyr, post: 489186, member: 354"] Like I said. It's hard to put into words. It's as much the WAY he plays them as WHAT he plays. You know the guys who can't NOT play a rogue-type character, no matter what class they claim to be playing? He's kinda like that. No matter what he's playing, he plays it solely to be... strange. And it's always campy-strange. Anything he plays feels like an over-exageration of every stereotype you could name about the character. And a lot of it, too, I think, boils down to the fact that there is no reason why his characters should be where they are, in the type of game they are in. The semi-driver sounds like a fine concept, until you realised that the group was (except for him) entirely composed of ex-corporate types who went in for the tricky, stealthy type stuff... which he was no good at. Didn't stop him from trying though. Or the shoe-less guy (Who, for some reason, made it his life goal to find his shoes. Not get his memory back, or anything. To find his shoes), which might have been fine in some games, but didn't work when the rest of the group was playing what basicly amounted to nomadic treasure hunters. Not even going to go into the insane mage... And he almost always seems to get obsessed over one little detail... his missing shoes, or always trying to find a way to listen to country music, or something. [/QUOTE]
