You're missing the point. He obviously knows how to output a simple string. He is trying to take small steps into the world of C++, that's why he's using the variables for such simple tasks. What I understand from what you say is that if you were to make an rpg, you would simply guess the character name that the mass amount of players will be using, instead of simply allowing input from the user as to what his players name shall be.

EDIT: You should really try to be more open when dealing with other people's knowledge of C++. People have different ways of doing things. Some like to take the easy road, some like a challenge.
