Escalating opposition


Player B shares a perspective about an important topic. At first, Player A accommodates Player B’s perspective. As the conversation continues, Player B introduces opposition, starting with speed bumps, escalating to pushbacks, and finally engaging in full-out conflict.

Variations

Be swayed – At the end, during the full conflict, Player A is swayed by something that Player B says, which changes their perspective.

Notes

  • The perspectives are fictional. Players don’t have to personally hold the same perspectives as their characters.
  • As the opposition escalates, heighten the emotions.
