Can video games be considered hypertext narratives? How? Why?

  • games is not about storytelling; a story is not needed to be a game
  • the intention of a text, which is a narrative, is to communicate; yet it does not really have to be interactive in a game
  • gaming is just a technology to get played with
  • gaming does not involved win and lose; while we don’t have to win story

 How do you actually write a hypertext narrative?

  • Hypertext is an emerging structure
  • When you write a hypertext narrative, each part is individual and they make sense by themselves. We don’t have to read all to understand one part.
