game design, story is a critical piece of the puzzle that allows
developers to increase player engagement, weave the gameplay experience
together, and create deep emotional connections to content.
This session

Effect, Dragon Age, and Star Wars: The Old Republic, and how these
fundamentals can be used in consideration of story perspective in any
game design project.
