					<description><![CDATA[I think about the concept of peril in adventures quite a lot, especially as someone who generally isn't big on character death, extreme physical or mental trauma, &#038; failing. What on earth is an adventure without those types of peril? Does a game even require an adventure, 0r peril, to be fun? (I won't be discussing the nature of fun, that's your own thing.)]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Content warning: alcohol abuse, binge drinking, discussion of risk of violation of consent and assault, underage drinking, social pressure, childhood trauma, anxiety, PTSD, coping, domestic abuse, suicide mention, self harm mention

I have been drinking since I was twelve years old. Alcohol, that is - water and I go way back. I grew up in a drinking heavy culture with easy access to alcohol and the understanding that booze makes you <em>fun</em>, in spite of my own traumatic experiences as a child showing me that drunk adults were <em>not fun</em>. Nonetheless, I jammed to that song and by the time I was legal to drink, I was seasoned, and it tipped over rapidly into a binge drinking habit that nearly ruined my life.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Genres always have soft edges, and any given work may fit into multiple genres (e.g., NYPD Blue is a drama, a police procedural, and arguably a modern noir, but it is not a crime thriller in the way that fellow police procedural Law &#038; Order: Criminal Intent is). Games aren't well defined by the genres we use for fixed fiction (because games are not fixed in that way, and are not experienced the way we experience books or movies).]]></description>
