Walt Freitag on interactive Hamlet

2001-10-01 16:51:53+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

QOTD, regarding interactive drama:

To watch a performance of Hamlet might be uplifting. To portray Hamlet in a damatic performance may be deeply enlightening. To be[Wiki] Hamlet just sucks. I choose "not to be," and I think the vast majority of audiences will always agree with me. What I want more of in my interactive worlds is solidity, responsiveness, richness, accessibilty, beauty, and depth. Drama? Give that to somebody else, and I'll watch.
