Do you prefer it when characters have last names, like in Final Fantasy VII for example, or games where there aren't any, or some games like Suikoden where some characters have a last name and some don't?
Depends. If they ha e a backstory that is important and includes a family, it would be weird if they didn't have a family name, or at least a patri/matrimonial last name.
everything is wrapped in gray
i'm focusing on your image
can you hear me in the void?
I feel like it adds a depth to the character and storytelling to have characters with surnames. But FFVII never bothered to use them in-game, which still disappoints me to this day.
They did try it with FFVIII but if the polls I've seen around here are any indication, nobody seems to have played it.
Since I prefer story driven games, I like my characters to have backgrounds and that included last names.
True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
Don't care on the whole, though it makes playing the Sims harder if they don't have them.
I think it makes them a little more human and cements family ties much better.

I don't really mind their absence, but given the choice I prefer them to exist.
I don't care, which is apparently false because I cared enough to both vote and post in this thread.
