The plans for The United Worlds Visual Novel are still in the works, and I am still refining some aspects of the game.

I originally considered letting players choose their own name to personalize their experience. However, this could complicate development, especially for side stories that would refer to the main character's past and identity.

That's why I would like to get your feedback on this point:

Would you prefer to be able to choose your own name for a more personalized experience?

Or would you prefer to play as a predefined character with their own name, which would make it easier to integrate this protagonist into other stories related to The United Worlds?

Your feedback will help me make a choice that meets your expectations while ensuring better coherence for the story.

Depending on what you are going for. It can help if you make the reader feel involved with the story. If it is story of your characters then your character name will do. I think the question you need to ask yourself is "Do I want the reader to be more or less emotionally involved?"
