Gamifying Dialogue - Analyzing the Best Conversation Systems in Games

Video games seem to be oversaturated with violence - and perhaps that is because it is easy to make violence fun. But, where are all the games that make talking fun? In this video, I explore the mechanics that game developers use to gamify dialogue. In doing so, I attempt to find ways that we can make games about talking just as fun as games about killing.

This video does not contain any spoilers for the games featured.
