1. Both really they sort of reflect each other. What I want is usually the opposite to what I don't want! I don't like to rule things out at all but at the same time I follow the things in life that interest me the most and really strive to envelop myself in them.
2. I'd definitely be curious just because from my own experience I've not seemed to have many enemies. I bet there were a few wolves in sheeps clothing though.
3. Tough question. I suppose it depends what role the character has in the game and its story. If they're a voiceless avatar such as Gordon Freeman or Chell then I don't think it matters hugely how similar they are to you but if it's someone like Niko Bellic or Jade where their personalities have a tangible effect on the unfolding story then I wouldn't like to subsitute myself for them because it's their story and I think that's much more interesting than playing like or as myself.

1. Do you have a problem with people trying their hand at a specialist subject without doing their homework?
2. Should everybody write about their thoughts?
3. Why do you come on here and answer these question?
