I'm watching a video about cancelled video games and they're talking about how the programmers kept borrowing elements from other games they were playing at the time and how the lack of a consistent vision ultimately prevented the game from moving forward.

The other day, I rewatched Robin Hood on DVD to celebrate the 50th anniversary. When the film was over, I took time to look over some of the concept art. They had human characters in Medieval Europe, animal characters in Medieval Europe, and animal characters in the American Wild West. They also had an alternate ending. They decided on an setting and saw it through to fruition. But you can tell from the production that they kicked around a ton of ideas before making their commitment.

Right now, I have an outline for my story that I'm working on. But I have one of three options to choose for my protagonist's personality, one of three options to choose for my deuteragonist's personality, and one of three options to choose for my tritagonist's personality. I'm putting the cart before the horse too because I'm focusing on the second and third most important characters instead of the protagonist. The protag sets the pace, not the supporting cast.
