As a theatre-maker, it was interesting talking to a lot of playwrights during the pandemic, about how it impacted them: so many of them rely on the liveness of feedback from actors in spaces. A tricky time.

A really interesting read – thanks for this. Loved the use of Muñoz.

Having played Mass Effect with a few different Shepards, I think it’s really interesting dramaturgically, in terms of storytelling: a balance between guiding a player through a predetermined story and, as you say, giving them enough choices to feel as if they are influencing it. You encounter the game very differently depending on the choices you make, even if [SPOILER] they don’t have as much impact on the ending, as some people have noted. It does feel personal.
