Fantasies of Disempowerment
Directing Games eBooks
An eBook published October 30th 2016.
"Video games have often been regarded as power fantasies. Yet the recent popularity of games that prominently feature disempowerment (e.g. survival games) may show us that this perspective limits our understanding of the medium. This book is a collection of purposefully disempowering mechanisms used in video games and analyses the reasons why players might be drawn to this experience."
