For Greg, the shifts in his character are pretty subtle depending on where you take him; mostly little shifts in confidence based on his relationship with the CG and financial security at the time

but i have played with the idea of playing young Greg once or twice--actually young, not fake young like in IS

All the heart and empathy but none of the experience, wisdom, or crippling fear of hurting people

All the games I've had Greg in involve him getting tangled with magic and him being Not Cool with that, but young Greg would think it's basically the raddest thing ever

so metal

I'm still bouncing around the idea of playing Hajime, too... it's been a while, but in the past he's almost always been Game 1, since it made for easy school game setting, but it'd be an interesting challenge to play him as Game 2

Less "precocious teen trying way too hard to be something he's not" more "frustrated young adult who realizes he's stagnated and is trying so very hard to not be bitter"

Yeah, IS was great

but it would be pretty neat to explore how actual young Greg would react to "this is my child, right here, in front of me"

the weird conflict of thinking he needs to be the big responsible great dad this kid knows and just being soooooo not ready for that

yeah

i imagine a sort of weird brother relationship forming, except they are father and son so it's still confusing and weird

I guess more accurately Greg would try and make it a brotherly thing bc he's uncomfortable with the idea of being a dad

and how well that works is. debatable

TIMEWAAAAARP

That's pretty much the best way to deal with Anakin
