Christy Dena is a writer, designer and director at Universe Creation 101. She joined us to talk about “Crafting Intangibles”, a free online interactive writing event which you can watch online now. Featuring talks from Narrative Designers and games writers from all over the world, Crafting Intangibles brings them together to share knowledge about how to write better for games and interactive experiences. Christy also shared with us what it takes to unite gameplay mechanics and storytelling in perfect harmony.
We also talked remakes and remasters. With so many titles coming back from the dead with a shiny new coat of paint such as Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered, the rerelease train does not look to be stopping any time soon. Are the massive profits that these games rake in taking away the incentive for publishers to take a chance on new IPs?
