[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 8999307, member: 29398"] No difference other than phraseology. Maybe call it a mild form of method acting, then? Sometimes, when considering other characters I (to a point) think as my character thinks. At other times I'll go into "analyst mode", usually when comparing characters or telling war stories. These are both completely unrlated to how/what I-as-player think of other players. For the latter, sometimes because that's where the game they're in has gone, maybe, and the stay in or bail choice was to stay in? For the former, and far more often, because that's where playing their character true to itself has led them. Many's the time I've made in-character choices simply because that's what the character would do, even though I-as-player don't want to make that choice and it's potentially going to negatively affect me at the table (e.g. the times I've roleplayed myself right out of parties or games simply by being true to my character and having it leave a party it has no good reason to stay in).
