Problems and Solutions: associating objects and story

The problem of associated objects with the story: An exploration of Fragmented Narrative Previous Method: At the beginning, I just have a brief concept of the whole story. I attempt to find objects which can be used as plots for the story in RPG MAKER MZ. However, it’s really a difficult work. New ideas would be conflict with original ideas, making me can’t find suitable things for my project.   New Method: I changed my way. I constructed a case as detailed as possible and tried to find objects according to these details. Frankly, it's a more effective ways, because I have clear aims of every object. It also reminds me that Fragmented Narrative is just a way of storytelling, instead of a way of creating story. Method: First step: constructing a complete story about the case Every details of the whole story Second step: Fragmentation of the complete story, selecting part of fragmented information as plots of players.

A New Method of Fragmented Narrative

The problem of traditional Fragmented Narrative in game: 1. Scattering, various and wordy narrative of information The unimpressive is the main problem to solve for any types of Fragmented Narrative. Scattering information is the main characteristic of Fragmented Narrative, which needs players to collect, connect and analyze. However, various fragments and wordy information often give players an exhausting  experience. Actually, image information are more impressive than text information, because image information are more likely to let people see the connection between images. Using more image information to narrate is what I want in Fragmented Narrative. How we memory work: 2. Some fragmented information can be overlooked by player Unlike linear narrative, most of Fragmented Narrative is not able to attract player to find and read them, which make them can be overlooked easily. How to make player notice carrier of Fragmented Narrative (items, scenes, enemies, skills) is a proble...
