  • Cultural Imaginations of Piracy in Video Games
    FORUM FOR INTER-AMERICAN RESEARCH (FIAR) VOL. 11.2 (SEP. 2018) 30-43 ISSN: 1867-1519 © forum for inter-american research “In a world without gold, we might have been heroes!” Cultural Imaginations of Piracy in Video Games EUGEN PFISTER (HOCHSCHULE DER KÜNSTE BERN) Abstract From its beginning, colonialism had to be legitimized in Western Europe through cultural and political narratives and imagery, for example in early modern travel reports and engravings. Images and tales of the exotic Caribbean, of beautiful but dangerous „natives“, of unbelievable fortunes and adventures inspired numerous generations of young men to leave for the „new worlds“ and those left behind to support the project. An interesting figure in this set of imaginations in North- Western Europe was the “pirate”: poems, plays, novels and illustrations of dashing young rogues, helping their nation to claim their rightful share of the „Seven Seas“ achieved major successes in France, Britain the Netherlands and beyond. These images – regardless of how far they might have been from their historical inspiration – were immensely successful and are still an integral and popular part of our narrative repertoire: from novels to movies to video games. It is important to note that the “story” was – from the 18th century onwards –almost always the same: a young (often aristocratic) man, unfairly convicted for a crime he didn’t commit became an hors-la-loi against his will but still adhered to his own strict code of conduct and honour. By rescuing a city/ colony/princess he redeemed himself and could be reintegrated into society. Here lies the morale of the story: these imaginations functioned also as acts of political communication, teaching “social discipline”.

  • Scott Stephenson History of Computer Game Design
    Scott Stephenson History of Computer Game Design Civilization: Sid Meier’s Legacy Acclaimed as one of the greatest computer games of all time, Sid Meier’s Civilization and its follow-up Sid Meier’s Civilization II rocked the gaming world with a delicate balance of strategy and simulation. Listed as Gamespot U.K.’s number one all- time series among both computer and console games, “Civ” and “Civ II” are universally recognized for the level to which their creator, hall-of-fame designer Sid Meier, raised the bar in terms of overall outstanding game-play. Few games have risen to the level of excellence that these games have achieved in computer gaming history. Civilization, published in 1991 by MicroProse, puts the player in the role of a lone settler in a vast, uncharted world in the year 2000 B.C., and gives him the task of building an empire to “stand the test of time.”1 To accomplish this goal, the player must take on the roles of general, city manager, diplomat, scientist, and economist, as winning involves not only managing the art of war against rival civilizations, but also maintaining the prosperity of the player’s empire. The player must balance “the four impulses of Civilization”—exploration, economics, knowledge, and conquest—to become more powerful, either through peaceful negotiations or world domination. In 1996, MicroProse released Civilization II, a sequel that vastly improved on the original Civ while maintaining the integrity of the original’s game-play. The inspiration for Civilization came from the Avalon Hill board game of the same name, set in the Mediterranean area of Europe and North Africa.

  • Playing Games with Technology: Fictions of Science in the Civilization Series Will Slocombe, University of Liverpool
    Playing Games with Technology: Fictions of Science in the Civilization Series Will Slocombe, University of Liverpool Introduction Videogames might be thought to be too recent, and to concerned with entertainment, to reveal appropriately historicised attitudes to technology. However, as this essay will demonstrate, there is value in considering how one type of game, the “4X strategy” game, encodes particular assumptions about technology and its development. Although closely affiliated to the “God game” (a videogame in which the player is given absolute, and often supernatural power over a civilization or tribe’s development), “4X strategy” games are defined by the phrase “EXplore, EXpand, EXploit and EXterminate”. That is, such games encourage players to “explore” the in-game environment, “expand” their civilizations, “exploit” the resources of their civilization’s territory, and “exterminate” rival civilizations. Whilst this phrasing is loaded, it provides a sense of the kind of activities within the game, although it does not foreground the importance of technological research. Using the Civilization series of videogames (six games and various “expansions” over the period 1991- 2016) as an exemplar, this article asserts that “technology trees”, as the underpinning structural element of such many 4X strategy games, reveal not only a specific cultural attitude to technology, but also towards the history of technology. Whilst this essay will describe and examine “technology trees” later, it is important to realise at the outset that these
