Hey Shaun, I really like the philosophical approach towards the paper. Using the words of Epictetus as a basis for your paper is an interesting idea. It’s very intriguing how you use his words from so long ago and modernize them in a way with video games. Using play as a means of therapy for PTSD in children is a very powerful study to note. I’m wondering what study it is though since it’s not cited. If you could include a case study for a specific child, that would also be incredibly impactful. Good luck on the rest of your project man.
I think you’re tackling a pretty interesting topic here! The most interesting thing you’re talking about here, to me at least, is the connection between war games and the effects that they have on children who play them. I feel like you have a good ideological base here, although I’m wondering what the multi-medial aspect of your essay will be.
