Plot Without Conflict

An interesting article on different plot types is featured here - it's on the differences between plot with and without conflict.  The adapted comic strip illustrates the point extremely well and I've copied one part of it below, to see the other part you should go to the page and have a look :)

I'm not sure who it's by unfortunately, but you can (I think) contact them via the page if you're so inclined.

Enjoy

The Daily Grind...

There's been a lot written about grinding in games and as someone looking for work in the industry that too can feel like a necesary grind through job sites, web pages and adverts, but I rather liked this article's take on the process of Grind in games, which was a little more thoughtful than some of the others I've read.

It's written Patricia Hernandez and was featured on Kotaku.
