I'm not sure about any sort of canon name, but we should let the player choose as most games do.

I agree with Steel, while some games do really well with the main character having a canonical name, it’s also really nice to have the chance to name yourself and have the pseudo-feeling of control even if we strip it from you later within the gameplay

i propose the main character has a canon name, but you can still change it because the canon name's just the default in the name creation screen.

That makes sense to me. And it gives the player some freedom for creativity.

I think we need to figure out the main story before going for a name, since it will be easier to choose a name with a set story. I've been thinking about it, and I like my idea that I posted a couple weeks ago.

I think character customization seems like a cool idea, but idk if our stuff will be able to handle it.

Spoiler: It will. And remember, if the game is too much for your PCs to handle, you can use several optimizations and workarounds to make it less resource intensive. By the way, you are being funded by the government until your first game is released. (Yes, they pay your expenses) However, buying things WILL cost you money, since they don't fund that.

Well, we can keep these ideas for if we make a remake of this game when we have better equipment. But we can see if naming our character is even going to be an option later in the development.

So for now since we’re just figuring out all this I’m going to work on some possible themes

I'd also like to start working on it, but we need a plot that we can agree on before I start
