what they say: jumpscares are a cheap trick to get a shock reaction from the audience. I dislike them because they cheapen the experience, and that’s why I prefer true psychological horror

what they mean: if I am playing a game and a thing jumps out at me I will have a heart attack and die

There are two types of writers…

Writer A: “I’ve fleshed this character out to the point where they’re more real then I am. I know everything about them, including their blood type, their thirty-first favorite song, what they did for their sixth birthday, and which brand of apples they prefer.”

Writer B: “This character exists as a full person in my head, but I know absolutely nothing about them. Once I forced them to talk about themselves,  and they simultaneous lied about their past and told me accurate trivia facts I don’t remember learning.”

I can’t do it until next WEEK but I’ll probably gif the shit out of this. Just watching back parts before the 9th level counter spell when Sam like jumps a little and he’s like nope nope I can’t do it I’m out I got nothing, and then the party convinces him anyway. UGH this is the WORST
