Marissa Koors will bring the indie perspective, revealing how an editor's command of narrative magic optimizes limited resources and relieves pressure on small teams. Finally, Joshua Rubin shares hard-won triage techniques for rescuing broken stories when it's too late for gameplay to change.Together, these talks give writers, narrative designers, and studio leads field-tested toolkits for strengthening story, as well as new perspective into the narrative discipline.
