The readings were interesting to me but the one that caught my attention the most was the medium of the video game. This chapter really went into detail of the evolution of games over the years, I really enjoyed how they went into detail about characters and story starting to feel connected to the player by adding elements to the game. For example the addition of environment, music, character art( mouths, eyes, personality, and color), and story which make the player feel more in tune with the character and feel apart of the story. In the chapter it was discussed how character started taking vibrant form like Mario and sonic who became iconic characters due to having personality with a simple yet enjoyable story to follow. I also liked the comparison between movies and games and how adaptations helped give games a bigger boost with marketing and bringing new ideas to the gaming experience as hardware upgraded.
