Comments on: Too Nice! PETA takes on Cooking Mama https://www.jesperjuul.net/ludologist/2008/11/18/too-nice-the-peta-take-on-cooking-mama/ My name is Jesper Juul, and I am a Ludologist [researcher of the design, meaning, culture, and politics of games]. This is my blog on game research and other important things.

personally I think PETA are sort of missing the point with the turkey as I think it would have more impact to show the cooked turkey looking appetizing as it would seem slightly fairer to both sides of the argument, as showing a gory mess even after cooking makes it feel more like propaganda than genuine concern

On a not entirely unrelated subject I was informed by my lecturer that you are pretty much the go to guy for new trends in gaming and I wondered what your views on Jrpg’s are, its for my 3rd year dissertation. I study Games Art and Design at NUCA in England, I also work full time for JAGEX as a junior modeller.

the title of my dissertation is ‘What makes a successful RPG?’

The music is quite distracting and I doubt visitors to the blog for the next weeks will enjoy constant exposure. Of course, the fault is with the designer for not having the game be silent until it’s interacted with.

Anyone remembers the milk gone wild one? I thought back then it couldn’t be worse. I was wrong.
