Join AMKomnenos, BananaHammockRepublic, and LegionGrey as we discuss the perspective of choice in games and why some work better than others. We discuss narrative methods such as quick time events and cinematics and how they can help or hinder the game play.

Join AMKomnenos, BananaHammockRepublic, and LegionGrey as we discuss the nature of what is a hero in a video game? What typically makes for a better story, a chosen one or someone who chooses to become the hero? We will use examples from various games and discuss whether or not a character within a great story is elevated or a great character within a common story is made great by that character or... is it a little bit of both?

Join AMKomnenos, BananaHammockRepublic, and LegionGrey as we draft characters in the spirit of fantasy sports.

Join AMKomnenos, BananaHammockRepublic, and LegionGrey as they discuss their favorite worlds in gaming, their least favorite worlds, and why you might or might not want to live in each. Expect a lot of Sci-Fi, a lot of Fantasy, and a little less emphasis on Horror.

Join AMKomnenos, BananaHammockRepublic, and LegionGrey as we dig into the the subject of challenge and speed runs. Are games more fun when an extra challenge outside of finishing the game is performed? Should games have hidden rewards for completing hidden challenges?
