Also known as "manufactured drama," forced drama is the writing technique of creating contrived circumstances and events, or unnatural character behaviors, for the purpose of easily getting emotional reactions from the audience.
It is seen as a transparent, amateurish method of getting an audience emotionally invested in a work.

: In episode 19, why didn't Bob tell Dave about that deal? He tells Dave everything and has no reason to lie. Isn't that out of character?

: Her crush dumped her, her puppy died, then she was struck by lightning in the middle of her parents' divorce after being told she has cancer. Am I expected to fall for this forced drama and actually feel sad?

Get the Strike Forcemug. If you force buy, then you're spending all of your money – though you didn't have much to begin with. You only force buy for 2 reasons:
1. You want to stop losing.
2. You want to make your enemy broke.
The word "Force buy" is mostly used in CS:GO and Valorant.
