Tag: Passage of Time

Tags > Theme > Other Elements > Plot Devices > Passage of Time

The time frame of the events is substantial and meaningful for the plot. By the end of the story reader should truly feel a significant passage of time in the world. This should mean at least years or even centuries passing and characters or the world changing over time.

This tag is not meant for brief leaps in time or time leaps taking place after the real events in the game's epilogue or such.
