>>58510651That's why I asked for a little more clarity since I feel like the scope and interpretation of what you're saying is wider than you might be giving it credit for. On the subject of the dialogue being too long, it sounds like you might suggest that I take a look at interactions I have in the middle of a fight, and see if I originally have maybe 4-6 lines, I should examine how I cut that down to 2?
As for the giddiness during fights, that's just how some of them operate, Anon feels at home on a battlefield and it's a place where he can truly shine. He believe that even with dire stakes, it's important to be a beacon in those dark times. He also just finds fighting really damn fun and it kinda feeds more into this theme that when they're at each other's backs they feel unstoppable. I can see how that can eliminate some of the tension, so I will try to be more conscious of the mood in the air and find a good balance. After some of the feedback yesterday I did take a look through a book my wife just got finished reading by an author she found recently that she really enjoys. It has some good examples of dialogue that I'm hoping I can learn from.
