February 2015

Welcome one and all to This Month in Let’s Plays! Let’s see what February had in store for us.

Alex Wawro explored at the effect that creating gross, violent games have on developers and how seeing such material day in, day out can mess with their heads. (Content Warning: graphic gore.)

‘Big indies’ may bring more money to more Kickstarter projects than before, but in a piece for Polygon Katie Chironis explained the hidden cost of the new strand of “indies” using the service as a proof of interest to show to investors.

…of games studies in their Department of Visual Communication.

For those on the reading side of games, Unwinnable has shaken up their structure a bit for 2016 and includes a litany of new segments as well as a return of their fabled “theme” pieces. I’ll refer you to their store page where I encourage you to pick up their new issue if for no other reason than Melissa Graf’s gorgeous artwork.

But there is a difference between arbitrary busy work and the work that make up the projects…

    …place. Games writing thrives on the kind of material that involves thinking about something specific broadly, or something broad specifically.

    So, in that way, everyone is also a critic. Not just someone who criticizes, but someone who engages. Games writing, in the online space, has developed into something far bigger than monthly gaming magazines and occasional discussions in now-extinct LAN Cafes. Gaming discussions have spilled onto the Steam store pages as User Reviews, aggregate sites like OpenCritic and Metacritic have opened the doors for user input, Twitter timelines are built up of professional and amateur commentators alike, and YouTube…
