RPPR Panel: The Case Against Fun – Social Critique & RPGs
Role Playing Public Radio - Un podcast de Ross Payton
Catégories:
Fun is obviously a byproduct of games, but that’s where the usefulness of the term ends. This seminar presents the case against fun as a design goal, method of criticism, and aesthetic in gaming. Caleb Stokes (No Soul Left Behind/No Security) and Ross Payton (Base Raiders/ Zombies of the World) discuss the negative and positive uses of the word of fun in gaming, along with other critical frameworks by which the word can be understood (such as the 8 types of fun). This panel was recorded at Gen Con 2015 and I forgot to post it until now! Better late than never, I guess.
