    Children in Post Apocalypse Science Fiction

    Children are often said to be our future. But when the world is destroyed, what roles do they play? Is their a trend amongst science fiction in terms of how the children are treated? What is left for them to offer the world if the hopes of rebuilding are fruitless?

    Great article! I quite enjoyed the Lovecraftian themes Bloodborne had to offer. It’s interesting to see how games take their inspiration from Lovecraft and put their own twist on the madness.

    Fallout 3 is the only game I’ve played that has left me feeling completely isolated even though there is someone in the other room. It truly is a haunting game.
