"When you don't feel like you need that protection anymore, then these roles are kind of dispensable." Amari O'Connor & Hope Yoon on why game studios should treat narrative consultants like theater treats dramaturgs, a core creative role, not just a liability check. #gamedev #gdocexpo2026

Slide: "Liability Protection vs. Creative Value"
Under the framework of liability protection, the cultural consultant's existential value is predicated upon surrounding political conditions.

Under the framework of creative value, the dramaturg's existential value is considered inextricable from the creative value of the product itself.

At the bottom, a speech bubble contains the quote: "Maybe we need to move away from the framework of liability and towards the framework of creative value, where we understand that capable research doesn't just protect from criticism, it improves the quality of the product."

"The details may be local, but the emotions are often universal." Judith & Masha, the creative director and producer behind Hope in the City, reveal how their team built authentic Asian representation into every layer of a mystery investigation game set in northeast China! #gdocexpo2026 #gamedev

1. Intention matters
The right collaborators will find you
2. Build with collaborators, not just consultants
Make cultural context part of the foundation
3. Specificity creates authenticity
Represent lived experiences, not abstractions
4. Local stories can be universal
Details are cultural; emotions are human
5. Authenticity is an ongoing process
Listen, learn, adapt

"Survival is not random. Survival is a system." Nahir (@mizu-chin.bsky.social) from Dreams of Heaven Games on building a studio from the Global South and reframing what the industry calls "grit" as an actual, nameable skill set. #gamedev #gdocexpo2026

"The theater didn't ask if I was ready. It just kept going and I learned how to keep up." Sound designer Roc Lee spent 10 years in live theater before game dev and says the habits it forced on him were really game audio habits all along. #gamedev #gdocexpo2026
