  • Making Meaning out of Social Harm in Videogames
    Making Meaning out of Social Harm in Videogames by Aidan Fortier B.A., Dalhousie University, 2014 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the School of Criminology Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences © Aidan Fortier 2018 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Fall 2018 Copyright in this work rests with the author. Please ensure that any reproduction or re-use is done in accordance with the relevant national copyright legislation. Approval Name: Aidan Fortier Degree: Master of Arts Title: Making Meaning out of Social Harm in Videogames Examining Committee: Chair: Richard Frank Assistant Professor Bryan Kinney Senior Supervisor Associate Professor Sheri Fabian Supervisor Senior Lecturer Anthony Vickery External Examiner Assistant Teaching Professor Theatre Department University of Victoria Date Defended/Approved: September 14th, 2018 ii Ethics Statement iii Abstract A literature review demonstrates that videogame research has theoretical and empirical relevance to criminology. This thesis explores the construction of meaning around representations of social harm in videogames by answering two research questions: 1) How is social harm represented in videogames? 2) How do players construct meaning around videogame content relating to social harm? Study 1 is a qualitative content analysis of representations of social harm in the popular videogame Skyrim. Themes included crime and punishment, money and power, extrajudicial crime control, legitimacy of violence, and criminalization of race. These findings are contextualized against analogous real-world cultural constructs. Study 2 consists of 18 interviews with players about their experiences interpreting and responding to social harm representations in videogames. Players’ construction of meaning depended on factors including player- character relationship, playstyle, game genre, and play context.

Unfortunately, internal discrepancies are often dismissed as indicators of political ambivalence, or treated as formal flaws that need to be overcome. To address this gap, this dissertation draws from game studies, media studies, and political economics to investigate the contradictory relationships between popular games and neoliberalism, specifically in relation to playful forms of resistance and critique that emerge during gameplay.

  • Battlestar Galactica: the Gates of Hell
    The Gates of Hell A Cerberus scenario for the Battlestar Galactica Role-playing Game By Ken Newquist [email protected] About this adventure The Gates of Hell is a one-shot scenario for the Battlestar Galactica Role-playing Game by Margaret Weis Games. I wrote it for my gaming group’s playtest of the game, which I used as the basis for my subsequent reviews at SCIFI.com and Nuketown.com Since that playtest ran, a number of people have asked me for a copy of my scenario notes to get a sense of how I ran the game. I’ll warn you in advance; this is a are fairly rules-light, straightforward scenario. It was designed to be run in a single session, and as a result, it’s exceedingly linear. Of course, one of the many cool things about the Battlestar Galactica RPG (and Cortex system that its based on) is that players have the opportunity to hack the scenario by spending Plot Points. What may seem overly linear on paper can bend and change in unexpected ways depending on the player characters. This is the case with most RPGs, but it’s doubly true with Battlestar Galactica, This document includes the main scenario, vehicle stats, a rules summary and character bios (with assets and complications but not full statblocks; if I have a chance, I’ll add those as well). It also makes reference to music tracks; when I ran this scenario I had a custom playlist drawn from the Battlestar Galactica Season 1, Season 2 and 300 soundtracks.
