However, some games are aware enough that there are games to actually ask your name and be genuinely interested in the reply. They don't try to [[Hello, Insert Name Here|foist your name onto a pre-existing character]]. They don't file down your name and never use it again. They use your name to actually address ''you'', involving you as a 'character', or they use it in a strange [[Meta Fiction|Metafictional]] way in order to involve you, discard you, or just [[Mind Screw|confuse you]]. May cause the game to lose some emotional punch when the characters are begging "President sk8rnijna" not to take funds from their charity.
 
For works where a character speaks directly to the player, see [[No Fourth Wall]].
