‘There is an ongoing battle between two videogame factions: the ludologists, who believe that game mechanics are everything, and the narratologists, who argue for the importance of story.’
‘Ludologists allegedly argue that games should be understood from the standpoint of "play" and narratologists allegedly argue that games should be studied for their narrative content.’
‘Ludologists and the extremely anal-retentive will be relieved to find that errors in the 1987 diagrams have been corrected.’
