“I'll make it pro bueno” - Mat 

Cara Ellison is a writer and narrative designer for AAA and Indie development, joining Alex CG (they/them), Shay T (she/her) and Mat J to explain how games have narrative even if they don't have a script, why game stories can feel like they're missing whole chunks and why sometimes bad writing is just bad design.
