::::The policy is that stories with branching or optional narratives aren't valid. ''Most'' video games where you can pick different characters during the gameplay have this affect the narrative, but this isn't the case with this one, where the story remains the same no matter what icon the player chooses to use. So that rule-of-thumb application of policy oughtn't apply here. --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 22:59, October 23, 2019 (UTC) | ::::The policy is that stories with branching or optional narratives aren't valid.

::::What's more, as common practice goes, this page has been existedfor ten years, and been edited by numerous admin during that time, including [[User:CzechOut]] and [[User:Tangerinduel]]. None of whom questioned its validity. | |||
::::The way the page is worded right now is just about right: as the lead states, this is a [[Seventh Doctor]] and [[Ace]] story. It is a purely anecdotal bit of RL trivia that the player can choose to replace the player icons with other Doctors or companions, and has no bearing on the narrative, as shown by the fact that the cutscenes still use McCoy even when one picks another Doctor. The in-universe narrative (which is what we're worried about the changeability of) always remains the same. --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 23:20, October 23, 2019 (UTC) | |||
