"The Game Makers" - Kojima, Druckmann and more talk narrative game design

(this double-posted!! I'm so sorry!)

Hello there! I just wanted to drop a little post here about The Game Makers, a new digital series that focuses on the unique methods that some of our favorite game creators use to tell stories. The series explores game development through the eyes of Hideo Kojima, Neil Druckmann, Sean Vanaman and many others. Since everyone here wants to write games, I figured this might be most relevant on this forum.

The entire 10-part series is available to view online right now on YouTube, and each episode runs for about 10 to 12 minutes. You can watch it in order by checking out this convenient playlist (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbFJMT1NGOvB0ueiOTVAbMzmHLVT4fdR1). You can pick and choose which episodes you'd like to watch, but for convenience, I've listed all the subjects below.

Episode 1 - Story Development
Episode 2 - Writing Process
Episode 3 - Character & Emotion
Episode 4 - Narrative Design
Episode 5 - Structure
Episode 6 - Directing & Performance
Episode 7 - Environmental Story
Episode 8 - Virtual & Augmented Reality
Episode 9 - Social Themes
Episode 10 - On the Future of Interactive Story

It's a pretty quick watch for the weekend, so I hope you all find it useful!
