Answering in my own thread so as not to derail the tropes thread… > [@What are the common tropes/cliches you see in CoG games (and other games) that you like (and don't like)](https://forum.choiceofgames.com/t/what-are-the-common-tropes-cliches-you-see-in-cog-games-and-other-games-that-you-like-and-dont-like/22482/70): > > > [@What are the common tropes/cliches you see in CoG games (and other games) that you like (and don't like)](https://forum.choiceofgames.com/t/what-are-the-common-tropes-cliches-you-see-in-cog-games-and-other-games-that-you-like-and-dont-like/22482/18): > > > > 😲 weirdly enough, one of my unfinished stories is entitled The Prince and the Thief and has pretty much just what it sounds like 😝 > > Any chance of incorporating some of it in your current WiP? I mean my mc is so poor he’s not really above stealing and some of the leading families of your republic got to have dashing sons, right? In terms of incorporating that story itself, not so much, since it’s a rather particular plot in a rather different setting. However, theft _is_ something that could make sense for an MC to do and I will consider it in my notes. As for dashing sons, while the male romances whom I’ve currently been thinking about are lower class or in one case foreign, I have been outlining prominent members of the dominant families as well as their immediate relatives, so I’m leaving myself open to the possibility of including a romantic plotline with someone else if they catch someone’s eye 😜 --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.choiceofgames.com/t/uprising-against-the-verdant-lords-small-update-12-9/21980)._
