    I wonder if there will be any discussion of the emotional impact of abandoning/destroying the weighted companion cube. That still haunts me.

    Maybe we should aggregate stories like this, to be ready to show people.

    In part, that is what this group is for. But I think it would be good to agree on a tag that we can all use for evidence about skill and learning outcomes from games. Once we agree that, we can start to use it for new bookmarks and also go back through this group's bookmarks to tag as necessary. How about "gamesrgoodmkay"? OK, maybe something shorter.

Talking with Tom Bissell-By Donovan Hohn (Harper's Magazine) - 2 views

  • The best part of that scene, and what was so affecting about it, was, as Clint Hocking (the game’s designer) pointed out, it wasn’t scripted. It was something that grew organically out of the systems they put into place. And it was wonderful: upsetting, funny, bizarre, intense. What other form of entertainment can do that for you? Provide a series of systems that you poke and prod and walk around in and explore, to the effect that, sometimes, you have something happen right in front of you that you made happen by virtue of being a virtually present within the system. You think about it long enough and your brain begins to melt, doesn’t it? It’s not storytelling, actually, but it allows a story to happen.
