Narrative structures in Black Mesa and other videogames
In this blog-post, I analyze traditional literary narrative structures, how they are applied to video games, how they are subverted, and how they can aid game production and design.
I used Half Life 1, 2 and Black Mesa in several examples so maybe this is of community interest.

If you have worked in videogames before let me know:

1-What other techniques (narrative or otherwise) have you used to plan the production of a video game?

2-Any other examples of games that subvert the narrative structures described here?
