Very Different Tales - How Game Stories Change by Genre & Medium  @FellowTraveller
Uploaded May 2025 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago
We all love stories in our games, but the way stories engage us changes quite a lot between titles, genres and even mediums. What works well in a PC game may have to be rethought for mobile or might need to be even more radically different for VR or AR. What about the different stories told in a game that uses only a mouse for input versus a complex strategy game that requires all the keys on a keyboard?

Our panelists come from a range of games told in all different media, from Watchdogs: Legion to Homeworld: Vast Reaches to Among Us VR to to As Dusk Falls, and they all know something about the shifting ways stories are told across genre and medium. In this spirited discussion we’ll cover why game stories are all so incredibly different, while also diving into what unifies the best game narratives.
