After making my characters I'm so invested in them and what I want to see happen to them that I'm almost always tempted to say, "Screw gaming, I'll keep them all to myself and just write a novel." Damn the Phases making character backgrounds so interesting.
Does this happen to you guys?

It is like using the Character Questions in a White Wolf game and yes you do get that feel. This forces people who hate to write backgrounds to actually think about their characters. I am loving it. A game the background can actually help you with the Aspects is great!
(And this is helping with making characters for my novel)

What a great problem to have - a game that gets you so involved in it that you care about your characters. :) Now THAT'S a well-designed game.

That used to happen to me a lot, and it made it hard to make some choices. But these days I just like reaching conclusion with characters, its interesting to see where characters end up.
