[OOC] The True Self - Persona

[Cuco]

The theme I would've picked is pretty upbeat. But I chose it mainly because

You raise a point. But, in my own opinion, every single shadow isn't exactly the same and not everyone's shadow is 100% negative. Sure, the P4 shadows were just a bunch of distorted exaggerations about their biggest insecurities, but a Jung shadow in itself is not just their darkest parts. A Jung shadow is what they reject or are ignorant of. It's probably not something you're proud of or want to be aware of but it's not Gritty McEdgey. But I don't really know. I personally thought it fit; Sato doesn't deny much about himself, and it's really just the biggest part that pushes him over that edge of denial. It's that last part that holds him back. But again, that's just opinion.Regardless, I had nothing better, I liked it, and it had slight relevance so I just decided, "Why not?"

Not 100% negative, but it's dark. It still needs that little bit of darkness to remind you that this is someone's dark side. I never said it needed to be "CRAAAWWWWLLLING INNNN MY SKIIIIIN".

It just needs that little touch.

I did have two songs in mind, but they just felt out of place . w .

"In Jungian psychology, the shadow or "shadow aspect" may refer to (1) an unconscious aspect of the personality which the conscious ego does not identify in itself. Because one tends to reject or remain ignorant of the least desirable aspects of one's personality, the shadow is largely negative, or (2) the entirety of the unconscious, i.e., everything of which a person is not fully conscious. There are, however, positive aspects which may also remain hidden in one's shadow (especially in people with low self-esteem)."

A Shadow's a lot more than just a dark side.

[Sho Minazuki]

Yeah, I'm aware, except that just says that there's more to it than a dark side. I'm saying Sen's character's shadow IS a dark side and that needs to be shown.

Also that definition brings up a question... Is any character here qualified for a happy-go-lucky shadow...? They'd have to be super negative and/or dark.

pft, you're forgetting about Matt... but even he has darkness that stems from his happy-go-lucky

About to say the dungeon theme for mine might be a tad on the darkish side but the boss theme is far from it..

Mine has darkish themes.

[Zane620]

Yeah I heard them, got some good taste in ya.

[Pudding]

Im referring to my dungeons meaning. Not the music.
Just to make that clear.

[Zane620]

Ohhhhh then never mind.

Well, first of all, the music in the game is important because it's a major focus. It's the majority of what you hear besides sound effects, so it's hella important for tone. In writing, the music you listen to is hardly important once you get into it. So all in all, the music I use is hardly inportant. Secondly, your interpretation of music is different than mine. Personally I don't really think I should use a slow and dramatic song in this situation, and IMO no fight theme should be too slow. The one I chose matches the criteria for it besides a serious dark undertone, which the lyrics to it kinda have.

Oh, and, a negative tone isn't necessarily "dark." It could be anger, sadness, fear, instead of just "dark undertones."

At this point I really don't care what you think about my choice anymore. I know that sounds rude, but honestly, I have nothing better and I'll probably change it if I find a superior choice.

you obviously haven't touched a game like ones from the atelier series then

[Savo]

By the way, I may have accepted your characters dungeon apps, but idk how the other two will feel, so I'm going to pm them the dungeons I have so far.

I'll tell you guys their input and such.

[Zane620]

Okay sounds good.

[Sho Minazuki]

Fair enough Sen. Still makes a better character theme to me though.

Also I've posted, if no one's noticed.

Yups, its Midoris, Sachikos, and Katos turn to post due to the fact that I'm going to post last on getting the persona because I'm timing a lot of things... Plus I'm about done for the day due to stuff, so yeah.

[SwordfishKnight]

Quiet night tonight.

anyways here's my themes for real.
Dungeon
I'm not sure what to use for the boss theme as I can't find a song that hits that right tempo for Noboru's shadow self. If I find something i'll update it.

[Sen]

Posted. I can't tell if my composition gets better or worse when I'm tired. Probably the latter. Anyway woah Sato and his drama! He needs to calm down. There was literally nothing between them and Sato's just getting mad based on his own false assumptions. GG.

Will post a CS for Akiko as soon as I get a good appearance for her.
