Questions for Deborah

@TimpoAdante: What's something you've never seen a game do that you would really like to see?

Do you think games (AAA or not) have improved in their representation of Mental Health over the past year?

What's something you've never seen a game do that you would really like to see?

@The_Doc_Webb: Any characters that proved to be a pleasant surprise (i.e., initially appeared to be a "gimmick" or worse but eventually proved to be a nuanced representation?

@Jaysla_: a lot of games (esp horror) use sanity as a mechanic - is there a way to do this well, accepting that scary situations will have a mental toll without being reductive or gross?

@BreenIsTerrible: Same question for The Sims series Insane trait. It seems to be a huge mess right now.
