Many games allow you to design your own
character, so game designers and GM's should prepare challenges that
specifically tap into those details. Players will feel like the
choices they made for their character have meaning, which adds to
feeling more significant throughout the gaming experience. If a
player was able to select engineering as one of their character's
skills, for instance, then there should at some point be an instance
where that skill will have an effect upon the game world. When a
player is able to leave their mark through a choice they made in
character design, the game experience is enhanced and the player will
feel a sense of pride and ownership over the experience. Gamers often
proudly talk about a game where their own choices made a significant
impact, so when initially designing the game, be sure to provide
players the opportunity to affect the game's direction.
