It seems like a lot of these distinctions and definitions are tied closely to the field of literary criticism. As games criticism continues to develop, I wonder if we’ll get similar treatment. We’ll have to use existing terms to some extent, but we’ll also likely need to develop new ones for games.

We’ve already begun to see the development of theoretical treatments of games and their critique. I’m curious to see how that field develops as that’s historically where literature developed its own language and frameworks of understanding
