I think a setting will affect the plot and characters a lot, and usually more than the reader would know. A setting ,a s the name suggests,can “Set”the whole story. The settings can literally chage the whole thing, even the characters fate. Even If the character’s characteristics are the same, the thing will change everything; and also the reader’s moods. If the setting is in the will west, even if the main character’s characteristics are the same, the story will still make a lot of difference. The steeing would also limit a story as well, a story about a realistic time in the past will not have spaceships flying around to zap people, that would more likely happen in a sci-fi.
In my own setting, I am a kid living in Taiwan, during 2011. I go to a school with white walls surrounding me and make me depressed always. Since I went to a depressing school, my life is not really happy as well, because I’m having day- javos every second and nothing interesting ever happens.
So, as you can see, a setting effects the story a lot, it might even change the main characteristics moods and characteristics later on, causing the whole plot to change
