Addiction @ The 2008 GDC: What Would You Want to See?
I’m thinking about submitting a talk for this February’s 2008 GDC. The deadline is Oct 01, but I wanted to get some feedback on what you think would help the most. My thoughts are to either propose a panel, maybe asking a few other academics and developers if they might want to talk on what the industry should be doing about “game addiction.” Something that I think could be more useful, though, might be 20 or 60 minute lectures - on either the theory behind game addiction, how healthy play works, or both.
Right now I’m in Kuala Lumpur - polishing a book proposal (we’re going to start querying agents today or tomorrow). I won’t be able to start work on an abstract for a couple of weeks, but I’d love any and all comments on this - and what you think would be most proactive.
