Listen "Episode 381: Law and Governance in Games"
Episode Synopsis
Recorded at Metatopia 2024
Presented by Jason Pitre
Law, like game design, is fundamentally about guiding human behavior. If you don't want people to resolve their problems with axes, you create a rule saying axe-murder is not acceptable or find a way to prevent people from having axes. In this panel, we will discuss how games treat law, governance, and society and what lessons those real world subjects can hold for designers.
