This text offers an innovative theoretical and methodological study of gamers in their community. It explores gamers as citizens and asks how gamers are political in view of their activities on stream. Ilya Brookwell examines how gamers live out their daily lives on live-video streams and how they use their associated new platforms and tools, including live-video streams such as Twitch.tv and online web fora, to engage with “live-video politics”. It explores the relationship between gamers, gaming, and streaming, highlighting how gamers develop a notion of self that is fundamentally located in community. Gamers consequently create, inhabit, as well as inherit a political world. With streaming communities offering unique insights into what it means to live in a digital age, the book explores how gamers find hopeful openings, as well as limits, through streaming. The book highlights how gamers can take an active role in politics and democracy in a digital age.

Download or read book Women and Video Game Modding written by Bridget Whelan and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2020-01-24 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world of video games has long revolved around a subset of its player base: straight, white males aged 18-25. Highly gendered marketing in the late 1990s and early 2000s widened the gap between this perceived base and the actual diverse group who buy video games. Despite reports from the Entertainment Software Association that nearly half of gamers identify as female, many developers continue to produce content reflecting this imaginary audience. Many female gamers are in turn modifying the games. "Modders" alter the appearance of characters, rewrite scenes and epilogues, enhance or add love scenes and create fairy tale happy endings. This is a collection of new essays on the phenomenon of women and modding, focusing on such titles as Skyrim, Dragon Age, Mass Effect and The Sims. Topics include the relationship between modders and developers, the history of modding, and the relationship between modding and disability, race, sexuality and gender identity.
