What if a timeskip occurs halfway through the game?

  • I’ve only seen it been done once, and it wasn’t bad. Only having one example, though, it’s hard to say for sure what my opinion on it would be. I think if you’re putting a timeskip in the middle it has to represent a significant shift in the story. For most story mediums, a tonal shift is probabl what it’ll represent, but in games you could probably get away with it just being a mechanical shift. Or, be NieR Replicant and do both.

  • Yeah, I've only experienced it once myself, and it seemed significant enough for me because the tone went from school life to a war

  • Yeah. Sounds like that’s big enough of a tonal shift to warrant a time skip. :p
