Game system as mother
The game system as mother entry from Jill's blog signals that game studies must be close to
maturity if they have reached for the mother/baby/womb analogy.
mothers are as different snowflakes, which is why the general analogy is so often cliche to
some degree. i mean, psychoanalysis is interesting and all, and i've done my fair amount of
research on the mother archetype, but, sometimes, mother and baby should just stay out of
certain fields of study. Or, maybe I've just read too much feminist literary criticism.
