This would be very helpful for mentally matching the various titles with their expression through the archetypes, and vice versa.
Why be an archetype or whatever? Why not just be or become the best version of yourselves? Seems incredibly over complicated
The idea of an archetype is that it is the pure expression of a pattern that exists within society. Then, you have “sub-archetypes” beneath those. By associating with an archetype, you are attempting to align yourself with qualities that you find desirable that could change your life. You aren’t becoming that person or ideal, you’re learning from them.
Which is how we learn as humans anyway. We watch others. We make adjustments to our lives. Using archetypes, we systematize this natural process, turning them into a tool that one can use. Any time you watch a self-help video, or something of the sort, you’re doing just that anyway.
EDIT: And I’d rather say, “The Tony Stark Stack,” rather than “This stack is for those who want to yada yada yada,” because if I say “The Tony Stark Stack,” most people immediately will understand the ideals behind that stack.

Ideas for True Social:
-
Next to selling, probably one of the most important skills in life is negotiating. So maybe some skill building with negotiating? Knowing when you are entering a negotiation and then 48 Laws of Power or something similar to get the most out of it. Including reading all the social cues, adapting to any type of people.
-
Being able to give speeches that sway the whole court room to your side (and you winning the court case).
-
Intercultural competence and respective callibration when dealing with people from different cultures: Hofstede’s Model of key cultural differences could be a viable basis to build this upon.

I remember when you explained to me the archetype of Hank Moody:
All the time I thought that Hank Moody is the Wanted archetype, while he was more the Primal archetype in the end. And I was only able to see the primal aspects of his archetype after you’ve told me.

Interesting… I don’t remember reading Hank Moody embodies Primal
I would encourage you to check out books by: Suzette Elgin. She had a back ground in linguistics and wrote books about identifying verbal manipulation. It’s been awhile, but I think she identified at least 8 assumptions people make to try to set up a subtext.

Now, THIS is something I can work with. Appreciate the suggestions, especially the third. Can guarantee we’ll see some form of this in the title.
Keep ‘em coming, everyone. The script is quite developed but there’s still room and time to get your ideas in.
When you hear a name like “Daredevil: True Social,” what immediately comes to mind? Imagery, concepts, feature ideas. Post ‘em.

Like, seriously. Social game masters that rose to power. I guess, it would be more like TWTP, though. However, that calculating mind amidst all the fun helps.

Yes, if someone wants to be a dictator/authoritarian of a country, it would be nice to have a sub for that.
Thanks brother!! Will check that book out.
The refinement of those skills, plus being real good at reading non verbal language, opens up a whole new world.
I cant wait for my Daredevil: True Social + Synergy Inescapable Gaze + Intuition Enhancer custom.

A.H also had a pretty insane rise to power, i once read how he went to court for a coup and was supposed to go to jail for 5 years but gave such a moving speech that the judge who was charmed by him ended up joining his movement and only served 9 months in prison.
(Hope this isn’t against forum rules to post)

Thinking in models …
I just remembered that The Executive needs to simultaneously increase Conscientiousness, and decrease Neuroticism.
(This overlaps well with …)
In the context of ADHD, the Inattentive type is generally a variant of Working Memory limits, while Hyperactives have issues with Inhibition.
Because of the above, some of the Skills / Habits that greatly benefit Inattentives, involve offloading the Memory needs to external tools – making lists, using post-its, whiteboards, calendar apps, etc.
Hyperactives gain most by cultivating habits of Self-Awareness – meditation, journaling, et al.
Both can use music for extended focus and mood stabilizing, physical exercise to get back in the body, other people for accountability, and formal structures for deadlines.

Eagerly awaiting the next releases.

I mostly hope true social to remain ultimately focused on the single most important aspect of being social which is flow… To get out of ones own way, where one feels good, alive and in the zone simply socializing. For that i hope the new True Social focuses on that depth instead of spreading too far and wide in order to do many other things at once. More additions = A more dense stack which isn’t a bad thing by itself but that would be counter intuitive to True Social
An idiot who is fun and confident will go much further socially than a stifled smart person who needs validation, or a set number of conditions in order to give himself permission to be unstifled.
With that being said, A great addition would be thriving on and enjoying stepping out of ones own comfort zone

I was just pondering how those two are like a power couple, or how to sneak the 48 Laws of Power into Daredevil: True Social!

Will it be possible for us to preview a sample of the masked audio tracks prior to finalizing our orders for a custom?
If we do, it will be somewhat mangled with a speaking watermark over it. We paid to get these recorded (for licensing issues, the “stock” audio that would serve as good masks have very expensive and restrictive license) and won’t be allowing people to steal our masks for their own stuff. Won’t quite work anyway, since Solace uses the Dolby API during the building of a title.

More suggestions on “negotiation” from Chris Voss’ book “ Never Split the difference”
-
Emotional Intelligence is Key “ Successful negotiation is more about emotional intelligence and empathy than logic. Understanding the other person’s emotions and motivations gives you an advantage.
-
Tactical Empathy “ This means actively listening and demonstrating an understanding of the other party’s perspective to build trust.
-
Mirroring “Repeating the last few words the other person said encourages them to elaborate and feel understood.
-
Labeling Emotions “ Identifying and verbalizing the other party’s emotions (e.g., sounds like you’re frustrated) helps defuse tension and builds rapport.
-
Calibrated Questions “Asking open-ended questions that start with How or What (eg: How am I supposed to do that) forces the other party to think and engage more.
-
The 7-38-55 Rule “ Communication is 7% words, 38% tone, and 55% body language. How you say things matters more than what you say.
I’d like to add being aware of your “tone” makes a big difference in conversations and would like to see some scripting for this.
