Video games are in good hands
Here’s why:
“I don’t read novels. I’m a novelist, but I don’t read. I don’t like reading. I love comics. I love reading comics. I can still read comics and write… But I come from a TV background.”—Gears of War 3 writer Karen Traviss, via Tom Chick
Nice to hear. For a while there I thought high-profile video games would start hiring writers who liked reading. Talk about dodging a bullet.
Yeah, they might have to develop a plot that could keep someone interested for more than two hours. Thankfully we’ll have 50 hours of gameplay without having to keep worrying about a story.
