bribery is always fun, if not frustrating if you’re broke

While this is hilarious, I’m angry she doesn’t say “That guy”.

I was just looking back at a series of recruitment convos I wrote. Each playable character would have a totally unique dialogue with the recruitee, and to keep things fresh, I didn’t want all of them to have the exact same reasoning for recruiting this character.

Reasons offered:
“We’re conscripting you to fight the enemy!” (Noble characters from power)
“You want to make new friends? Come with us!” (Casual characters with lackadaisical personalities)
“You’ve lost people in the war? So have I. Come with me and avenge your fallen comrades!” (Characters with vendetta problems)
“You need money? Join the army and the prince will make sure you get paid!” (Mercenary type)
“If you think I’M attractive, you should see all the other hot people in our army.” (Narcissistic character)
“You think you can avoid me because I’m annoying? Nuh-uh! We’re best friends, and I’m joining your army!” (Uno reverse where the recruiting character doesn’t want to recruit the recruitee but the recruitee tags along with him to be annoying)

There are all sorts of reasons you can use. Make sure you’re taking every opportunity to expand on characters and you’ll do fine.

As much of a meme as Serra is, I’ve always loved the fact that she just joined Lyn’s Legion to have a noble in debt to her - which is a pretty believable reason when you think about it.
