Couldn't find your details online; understandably! Thank you for your writing. You've hugely impacted me. As a straight male, you've helped me understand and momentarily feel the frustrations, fears & challenges faced by women & LGBT communities on a daily basis. As an ethnic minority, you've put words to the feelings of identity empowerment games like Mass Effect have enabled. And as a gamer, you've restored my faith in the medium as a vehicle for challenging cultural norms. Thank you. @joeroot

Thank you so much, Joe. It’s always tremendously gratifying to receive a message like yours. I think games, like all commercial media, far more often duplicate and reinforce cultural norms than challenge them, but I think the potential is there for games to be challenging and subversive and I try to celebrate them when they do that. Thank you again!
