PGC 2020 Sessions @ PGC LONDON - Kate Edwards
summary
Game worlds require geographic and cultural fixes not just art or code: examples include remove swastikas for Germany in Wolfenstein, patch maps for Taiwan and Kashmir to satisfy government rules, and replacing a historically incorrect Age of Empires scenario after Korea complained. Notes that China surpassed the United States as the largest gaming market the previous year, topology and layered world design guide what to build, and several titles faced bans or guidelines (Resident Evil 5, Hearts of Iron, Pocket God, Resistance).
