Recently, I was watching a show in which a beloved character was in a situation where they were going to die, but they get saved by their friends.
I find this type of plot to be boring and overused. Why don’t writers let their characters die? I feel it would be more interesting to have an important character die, such as the MC, more often.
It’s an overused trope that most writers tend to use so their story can have a “happy ending”.
Sort of. Trope doesn’t always mean bad. Tropes, like any writing device, can be used well or used poorly. We tend to notice the bad ones that annoy us. We often miss the ones that are a bit more subtle.
Sure, maybe I shouldn’t have said “overdone”
Just done a lot
