(This is very specifically about epic, mainstream narrative games. Like, I KNOW there are lots of games that aren't violent. I also love playing violent video games.)

I wrote a short feature for @Medium about whether epic narrative games like Tomb Raider, Uncharted or Assassin's Creed can work without violence. Thanks to @hunicke, @briecode and @hollygramazio who answered my questions!https://onezero.medium.com/its-time-to-take-the-guns-out-of-video-games-10c7e01869e5 …

Since 2008 we've challenged game designers to create games without any onscreen depiction of violence. That constraint has led to many imaginative and compelling games. We're a small charity preventing dating abuse; these small games have reached young people around the world.pic.twitter.com/H5mdka7g7x

Portal but with doom demons where you have to lure the demons into portals to send them back to hell without any other way to defend yourself

Love this. Tomb Raider in particular is frustrating because you only have to look at the old ps1 games to see its possible- the shooting was peripheral. Can easily a modern version which develops the platforming and puzzling, and delivers excitement with escapes, chases, etc.

Great article, though violent games have a great catharsis factor which is fine, i love to take inspiration on children's games like said in the article. I think the industry is going more towards a balance between violent and non violent games and i hope it will stay balanced

I too like children.
