On the Visegrad populist medieval fantasy CRPG tip, still playing Kingdom Come but I was startled what they did with one character, they first did some encounters to set him up as an antagonist like \u201carrogant feckless young nobleman\u201d, like the archetype of the Bad King (-in-waiting)
\u2026but then subvert that towards that he\u2019s not rotten, and actually pretty charming and competent, and it\u2019s mostly that he\u2019s fresh to the role and under stress and a lot of his schtick is basically ballbusting but at the end of the day he is an entitled lord and you are an undistinguished commoner and he\u2019s not at all ashamed of the dynamic
That\u2019s interesting, I hadn\u2019t seen it before, and it\u2019s a way these Eastern European feudalism-from-below narratives really are novel
