Episode description

This week's topic was suggested by Seth's girlfriend, thanks for your great idea! This week, we discuss character creation- do aesthetics matter? (hint: yep, they sure do...sometimes) Who do we want to be in games - idealized versions, accurate representations, outlandish others?


What kind of representation makes us more engaged in a game?  Also discussed: Cat Needs, Black Ops Zombies, Minecraft, and the Rocky Mountains.


If you have ideas for a topic you'd like us to discuss, or thoughts on this week's topic, send us an email!  [email protected]
