  • WRITING for GAMES Speaker: Jenny Gibbons PART 1: HARMONIZING STORY THEME with GAMEPLAY
    WRITING FOR GAMES Speaker: Jenny Gibbons PART 1: HARMONIZING STORY THEME WITH GAMEPLAY How does the narrative enforce the gameplay, and vice versa? NARRATIVE SIGNIFICANCE • How important is the story to the overall experience of the game, and why? There can be many levels of narrative significance in a game. For instance: 1. Narrative is crucial to gameplay experience • “The Wolf Among Us” or “The Walking Dead” by Telltale Games • “Heavy Rain” by Quantic Dream • Visual novels such as “999” or The Wolf Among Us “Danganronpa” NARRATIVE SIGNIFICANCE 2. Story experience regularly interwoven with gameplay • “The Last of Us” by Naughty Dog • “Metal Gear Solid” games by Konami • RPGs such as “Final Fantasy” 3. Story only serves as a device to launch the game • “Super Mario Bros.” by Nintendo (rescue Princess Peach) THEMATIC HARMONY • No matter what the narrative’s tier of significance, the theme and tone of the story needs to match/reinforce the mood of gameplay • Good example: • “God of War” by Santa Monica Studio (Kratos’s story of revenge and violence goes hand in hand with the player’s violent gameplay) • Bad example: • “Grand Theft Auto 4” by Rockstar Games (Niko’s search for redemption is in direct opposition to the player’s desire to wreak havoc) • Games that create a functioning paradox: • “Shadow of the Colossus” by Sony • “Nier” by Square Enix BRANCHING STYLES • Limited branching: has a set amount of basic decisions and a set number of outcomes/endings. Might diamond back to a set path • Funneling Narrative (Chokepoints) – There might be an open-world, but there will always be chokepoints where a player must go to advance the main story • Critical Paths: there is one success path; the player might deviate occasionally but the game will guide her back to the predetermined path • Open-ended: Complex decisions that continue to branch.

  • Game Narrative Review
    Game Narrative Review ==================== Game Title: Final Fantasy X Platform: Playstation 2 Genre: RPG Release Date: Dec 17, 2001 Developer: Square Soft Publisher: Square EA Game Writer/Creative Director/Narrative Designer: Uncertain Author of this review: Christopher Krawczyk Email: [email protected] | [email protected] Overview Final Fantasy X was one of the first to bring real-time, interactive storytelling to a 3D platform and succeed. One could only achieve such success with an excellent narrative, full use of symbolism, and decision based game play. Furthermore, Final Fantasy’s narrative was designed to establish an emotional connection between the player, story, and main characters. The writers used subtle symbols, interesting character quirks, and relatable scenarios to draw the player in. Even the environment itself sets the mood of the story, through the use of colors, music, and even the weather (elements). Final Fantasy’s narrative is an epic one in which the main character Tidus is torn from the world he knows, a world where he lives a comfortable life as a Blitzball (underwater soccer) superstar. When chaos strikes his home town of Zanarkand, Tidus is confronted by an ethereal being, Sin, which offers to save him. With Zanarkand crumbling around him, Tidus reluctantly allows himself to be consumed by Sin and the offer of truth and salvation. Sometime later, Tidus awakens from a coma like state to a strange world around him. Struck with amnesia, Tidus only recalls his name and pieces of his past life as a famous Blitzball player. Eventually, Tidus is rescued by a group of locals who take him in.
