Episode 233 - Deconstructing Religion in your Games

Recorded at Metatopia 2018

Presented by Shoshana Kessock, James Mendez Hodes.

Religion has held sway across the world in various forms, and its influence has molded everything from how we live our everyday lives to the laws we make and the entertainment we consume. We will take a look at how real world religious ideologies have impacted the games we create, how they influence the worlds we build, and how we might deconstruct those ideas to approach our games from a different perspective. Specific care will be taken to contrast western ideologies from across the world.
