  • The Expanding Storyworld: an Intermedial Study of the Mass Effect Novels Jessika Sundin
    Stockholm University Department of Culture and Aesthetics The Expanding Storyworld: An Intermedial Study of the Mass Effect novels Jessika Sundin Master Thesis in Literature (30 ECTS) Master’s Program in Literature (120 ECTS) Supervisor: Christer Johansson Examiner: Per-Olof Mattsson Spring Semester 2018 Abstract This study investigates the previously neglected literary phenomenon of game novels, a genre that is part of the increasing significance that games are having in culture. Intermedial studies is one of the principal fields that examines these types of phenomena, which provides perspectives for understanding the interactions between media. Furthermore, it forms the foundation for this study that analyses the relation between the four novels by Drew Karpyshyn (Mass Effect: Revelation, 2007; Mass Effect: Ascension, 2008; Mass Effect: Retribution, 2010) and William C. Dietz (Mass Effect: Deception, 2012), and the Mass Effect Trilogy. Differences and similarities between the media are delineated using semiotic theories, primarily the concepts of modalities of media and transfers of media characteristics. The thesis further investigates the narrative discourse, and narrative perspectives in the novels and how these instances relate to the transferred characteristics of Mass Effect. Ultimately, the commonly transferred characteristic in the novels is the storyworld, which reveals both differences and similarities between the media. Regardless of any differences, the similarities demonstrate a relationship where the novels expand the storyworld. Keywords: Drew Karpyshyn, William C. Dietz, Mass Effect, BioWare, storyworld, video games, digital games, intermediality, transmediality, narratology, semiotics 2 Table of Contents 1. Introduction ………………………………………………………………………….…. 4 1.1.

  • Mass Effect! Action! Drama! War! Romance!
    Story: In the year 2148, explorers on Mars discovered the remains of an ancient spacefaring civilization. In the decades that followed, these mysterious artifacts revealed startling new technologies, enabling travel to the furthest stars. The basis for this incredible technology was a force that controlled the very fabric of space and time. They called it the greatest discovery in human history. The civilizations of the galaxy call it... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Intro: Element Zero! You're going to be hearing that term (or eezo) a lot from now on. It'll be used to justify faster-than-light travel, energy shields, even glowy space psychic people. Why? Because you get to spend the next 10 years in the sci-fi adventure setting of Mass Effect! Action! Drama! War! Romance! You will begin your adventure in the year 2181. For the record, the first Mass Effect takes place in 2183, Mass Effect 2 takes place in 2185, and Mass Effect 3 kicks off in 2186. You get a few years to get yourself ready for the impending Reaper (sentient starship) invasion. You might even be able to stop it yourself. Remember, you probably know information (or can learn it by just reading the Jump) that could save a lot of lives if you can get people to believe you. Cerberus' (human supremacist organization headed by the Illusive Man) antics, the Collectors, all of that information could be resolved with less fuss if you can get the word out to the right people. You'll have to survive though. Good luck with that! Go join up with Shepard, take things into your own hands, or use your information to change the galaxy.

  • Women in STEM on a Spaceship
    Women in STEM on a Spaceship Ursula Whitcher I don’t expect to find role models in video games. There’s a difference in goals, of course: I don’t want to develop my skill with guns, swords, or jumping long distances, and I’m not planning to wreak revenge on anyone. I don’t even want to start a small package-delivery business, which is a standard task in the genre of games I favor. But there’s a more obvious, less pragmatic, reason I don’t expect to see myself in video games: I’m a woman. As a female gamer, I belong to a demographic occasionally mocked and often dismissed entirely. Though women constitute just under half of all gamers (48%, according to the latest industry statistics), female characters are rare and female protagonists even rarer. Recently, for example, the game company Ubisoft announced that there would be no playable female characters in the new Assassin’s Creed game because “the reality of production” made animating women too expensive. As a mathematician, I’ve grown accustomed to real-world contexts where women are rare. In recent years, women have received just over 30% of the Ph.D.s granted in mathematics. Sometimes even 30% seems high: when I go to research workshops in my subfield, I'm often the only junior woman in the room, and occasionally the only woman. That might be because my field overlaps with theoretical physics, and compared to other STEM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), math is doing pretty well. Fewer than 20% of new physics and computer science PhDs go to women; the statistics for engineering are similar.

  • Mass Effect: Andromeda V1.16 By: Ovid Different Galaxy, Same
    Mass Effect: Andromeda v1.16 By: Ovid Different Galaxy, Same Problems Hello Jumper, welcome to Mass Effect! Specifically, the Heleus Cluster located within the Andromeda Galaxy. I hope you are ready to fight to survive. The place looked great for a colonization effort by the species of the Milky Way 600 years ago. But between then and now, things have changed. Mysterious structures have popped up on the selected colonization candidates, and now those planets are barely inhabitable at best. In addition, there’s this nasty stuff preventing convenient space travel called the Scourge, which is best characterized as space fog that will screw up anything that gets too close to it. Ships, planets, etc. Good news though! You aren’t going in empty handed. Have 1000 Choice Points, and make ​ ​ them count. (In the interests of not breaking immersion, there is additional information on the setting and perks/items/drawbacks at the end of the document.) The year is 2819 CE. The Arks are scheduled to arrive now, and they are expecting the Nexus, which showed up a year earlier, to be set up and waiting for them. But, the conditions have changed over the last 634 years. But enough of that! What Race are you? Roll 1d7. ​ ​ ...Congratulations, that’s your lucky number! All joking aside, pick your race for free. Human: Back in the Milky Way, Humanity was the latest race to join the Citadel Council after a staggeringly short waiting period. You know a human will continue to push the boundaries of what can and can’t be done, so it makes sense that the Andromeda Initiative was originally founded by a human.

  • The Performative Interactivity of Video Games
    SHALL WE PLAY A GAME?: THE PERFORMATIVE INTERACTIVITY OF VIDEO GAMES Michael J. Beck Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2014 APPROVED: John M. Allison, Jr., Major Professor and Chair of the Department of Communication Studies Justin T. Trudeau, Committee Member Shaun Treat, Committee Member Holley Vaughn, Committee Member Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Beck, Michael J. Shall We Play a Game? The Performative Interactivity of Video Games. Master of Science (Communication Studies), August 2014, 113 pp., bibliography, 61 titles. This study examines the ways that videogames and live performance are informed by play theory. Utilizing performance studies methodologies, specifically personal narrative and autoperformance, the project explores the embodied ways that gamers know and understand videogames. A staged performance, “Shall We Play a Game?,” was crafted using Brechtian theatre techniques and Conquergood’s three A’s of performance, and served as the basis for the examination. This project seeks to dispel popular misconceptions about videogames and performance and to expand understanding about videogaming as an embodied performative practice and a way of knowing that has practical implications for everyday life.
