Brianna Wu and Gamergate | VG boundaries 2
https://vgboundaries2.wordpress.com/2015/05/17/brianna-wu-and-gamergate
Brianna Wu and Gamergate. Before I went to the Brianna Wu talk, I had not heard much about Gamergate at all. I had done a little bit of reading beforehand, but still wasn’t entirely what the “movement” was. I did know, however, that Brianna Wu was somehow involved, and that she had received threats of some sort during the course of Gamergate. One comment on “ Brianna Wu and Gamergate. May 17, 2015.

Narrative in The Challenge. One of the storylines that really sticks out is CT and Diem’s relationship (there’s going to be a lot here and I would include pictures, but it’d literally be too much.

Liberating the Assassin’s Creed Franchise. The three protagonists of the Assassin’s Creed: Chronicles Trilogy. Or the story of gaining independence against the British Empire, and the violence of the Partition would fit in so well with the greater Templar vs. Assassin narrative. Or what about one of the many revolutionary movements from South America? Or a game about South African Apartheid? View all posts by Frank Tavares →. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Quarters: Why I was an Old Man in my Youth | VG boundaries 2
https://vgboundaries2.wordpress.com/2015/05/17/quarters-why-i-was-an-old-man-in-my-youth
Quarters: Why I was an Old Man in my Youth. For most of my blog group, the blinking CRT screens, creaky joysticks and Atari sound effects were the sole sources of attention during the trip to Quarters. My attention was elsewhere. I found myself looking up and over the machines, at the walls lined with toys and games from the 80s and early 90s. For one of the first times in my life, my eyes were on the physical instead of the imaginary. I want to believe the reboot won’t be awful. May 17, 2015. I apprecia...

Recognizing Locale in The Last of Us | VG boundaries 2
https://vgboundaries2.wordpress.com/2015/05/16/recognizing-locale-in-the-last-of-us
Recognizing Locale in The Last of Us. The Last of Us offers us an unusual view of post-apocalyptic Massachusetts. But my favorite parts are the remnants of the old world. What particularly strikes me is the use of a real life monument, the Robert Gould Shaw memorial, which appears before entering the State Capitol to drop off Ellie with the Fireflies. The real-life memorial. Check out that beautiful bronze! Is it gold-plated, or covered in Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup wrappers like so many colonial ho...

Game of Thrones and Fetishizing Sexual Violence | VG boundaries 2
https://vgboundaries2.wordpress.com/2015/05/17/game-of-thrones-and-fetishizing-sexual-violence
Game of Thrones and Fetishizing Sexual Violence. Trigger Warning: Discusses sexual assault and violence as portrayed in Game of Thrones, and an instance of real life sexual violence. Spoiler Warning: Mild spoilers for Game of Thrones Season 4. So it’s very obvious that the sex in the show is very much presented through a male and mostly straight gaze. So, if the justification for the abundance of sex in the show is to portray the world in a realistic way, then why are these scenes not presented in a ...

Exploring my Sexuality through Dragon Age: Inquisition. Dorian being a badass! But like, it was different than the way I was attracted to girls. Sexuality is weird. And hard to figure out. But what I want to talk about is how video games actually helped me figure things out! I really liked Dorian, and talking with him was really enjoyable. When the option came up to start a romantic relationship with Dorian, I took it. Dorian in the library! Well… I’m sure he’s somewhere in there! Frank Tavares ’18 grew ...
