Be forewarned, this thread is not about the dance of the same name. I apologize.
No, this thread is about the reveals, the shocking swerves in a story that completely change the experience for better or worse.
While I am personally a fan of twists in a story, I can't think of too many that have been done well, both in roleplaying and in the fiction I consume.
It's either too predictable or it seems like an ass pull, but overall I like that people try.
With that said, how do you all feel about plot twists in roleplaying? What are your favorites you've written or taken part in as a roleplayer?
Lastly, what are the least favorite you've written and taken part in, and what would you do differently?
