I'd say it depends on the length of the dialogue. If we're talking about 2-3 lines, then yeah, it should only be done on switching. If we're talking about a speech that lasts several pages, I would think that it should be clear from context clues who is speaking.
Anyway, don't get hung up on rules! Write how you want! Have a style!
I feel like I've seen paragraphs end with quotation marks and then pick back up with more quotation marks on the next paragraph in serious literature, so I'd say write how you want. That said, it is good to break up walls of dialogue every now and then to set the scene with small details like that.
Yeah, modded Minecraft is still a big deal. You can join us over at [email protected] if you want. The mod Create is a big deal right now, and rightfully so. It may well be the greatest of all time, as far as Minecraft mods go.
Edit: didn't mean to make this a comment reply instead of post reply, but it still counts
PopTop. Railroad Tycoon 2&3 and Tropico 1&2. They got bought by 2K, which eventually killed the studio. The Railroad Tycoon series is dead. Tropico is still around, but I'm not excited about the latest interation. Some of the guys tried to kickstart a new Railroad Tycoon but it didn't fund. Phil Steinmeyer was an underrated developer, though I believe he's retired today.
It's too bad it worked out that way. I think they could have been on the level with Paradox as far as strategy games are concerned, but focusing more on economic games, city builders, and the like. On Steinmeyer's blog he said he didn't think there was demand for heavier games anymore about mid 00s. That might have been true then, but so many games out now prove that wrong.
