"We need to change the conversation around games…

Too often do we spend our time defending games: simply talking about "why games aren't bad", when what we should be discussing is "what good games can do". This keeps us in a perpetual cycle of talking heads on TV discussing games as 'murder simulators' or decrying the "harm" they do... we've been having this conversation since 60 Minutes covered Death Race in the 1970's.

It's time we talk about all the things games can do for us as a scientific, cultural, artistic and educational medium instead. It's better for society, it's better for creators and it's better for players.

But to do that we need to really open up communication between people in the games industry and those who help shape the laws around it, we also need to facilitate more 'games for good' getting made, so when someone asks why videogames matter we have example after example to point to."

James Portnow, you are awesome! Önskar att jag kan få dela en kopp te och snacka indiedesign med dig någon gång.
