Jennifer Svedberg-Yen is the Lead Writer and Voice & Localization Producer at Sandfall Interactive, and is a Creative Consultant for a number of other studios.
She specializes in stories with emotional and philosophical depth, as seen in Sandfall's recent game - Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.
She loves puzzles and snacks (traits she shares with her dog Trunks), and often composes stories in her sleep. She also spends perhaps a little too much time hunting platinums for her favorite games.
Beyond the Boundaries of Narrative - Literary Experimentation and the Philosophy of RPGs
This session explores how RPGs can transcend traditional storytelling by merging literary experimentation with philosophical design.
Through Disco Elysium and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, the speakers discuss translating reality into fiction, empowering players as co-authors, and redefining the narrative future of the RPG genre.
