Timing:
Thu 3:00 PM - Thu 4:00 PM
Location:
Marriott
/ Marriott Ballroom 2
Long Description:
In discussions of video game narratives, the phrase 'meaningful choices' gets brought up almost immediately. But often, nobody defines a meaningful choice the same way twice. How do you know what makes a choice meaningful? How do you balance meaningful branches to acknowledge player agency with the scope of your game? This workshop teaches when to use different styles of narrative choices, and most importantly, how to pay them off without blowing scope. Featuring: Jennifer Allaway — #gcws #classroom #videogames
