S1E4. The Future of Storytelling & Narrative Design with Ken Levine

Raphael Colantonio and Peter Salnikov talk to Ken Levine (BioShock, Thief: The Dark Project, System Shock 2) about the way video games tell stories, and instruments which let the devs go deeper and bigger than in any other medium.

•  Timing, dynamics, and keeping it simple;
•  Smaller stories inside bigger ones;
•  How to lead player’s attention and highlight what really matters;
•  Cut-scenes, dialogue trees, audio logs, prescripted events and their impact on user experiencs;
•  Procedural storytelling: what the future holds.

This and many more – in the fourth episode of The House of The Dev podcast.
