2 Ideally, the researcher in the video game world should be a player and even a video game developer. In fact, one of the virtues of this book is that two of its authors have participated in the development of video games, M. Paprocki, ‘Mortal Immortals: Deicide of Greek Gods in Apotheon and its Role in the Greek Mythic Storyworld’, who worked between April 2013 and February 2015 as a mythology consultant for the game Apotheon, and A. Fleger, ‘The Complexities and Nuances of Portraying History in Age of Empires’, who was Creative Director of Age of Empires: Definitive Edition.
