Four days is dead?

Instead of through introspection and monologue, the idea would be to portray what make each character themselves would be through words and action seen through the eyes of the poor mooks/baddies/rivals they would face. That would be a huge study in characterization and perspective, in that each player would effectively try to impact each scene as much as they can through actions and words alone. The plot would probably be pretty big on action, and the pace would probably means shorter but faster posts as a result.[/quote]

This reminds me of a video game concept someone shot at me once: a second person shooter where you have to shoot the bad guys but have to see through their eyes.

It would work much better in your version, however, as writing from the perspective of the mooks would be way easier than designing a second person shooter.

It's an interesting idea to be sure.
