Yesterday we had the second class of the "Introduction to Game Design" which we are taking at Ibero with Ed keenan, I'm glad to tell you that the course has gone pretty good so far, and I really like it, yesterday we watched the movie "King of Kong" it shows the never-ending struggle between two guys for the best Donkey Kong player in the world, but I think it goes far beyond that, it also shows how people can get stuck in the 80s continuously trying to achieve something that, in my humble opinion, it's not worth it =(. You can see the guys losing part of his (familiy) life playing video games in an insane way without even realizing how bad that can be. Anyway, the movie worked as an opener to the importance of Culture inside the video game industry, and how different cultures can see the same game with different points of view, which might lead to unexpected success or a terrible failure for an specific game, that's why it's important to consider the cultural background of each region in order to be able to deal with all those different opinions, and bring the best game for the appropriate audience.
Also, the main goal for re-opening this blog is to continuously tell my experiences while I play World Of Warcraft, which is one of the assignments we've got for this course, so,I'll be posting stuff about it. But for now, i have to go. See you!
