We don’t know all the secrets of HBO’s hit series Westworld, but we do know the park inside the show is essentially just like a video game There are quests for the players to go on, NPCs to interact with (the robot “hosts”), the guests discuss various playstyles of interacting with the park, and even get “upgrades.” The people behind the scenes create the narrative, program the hosts, and control the environment, crafting the experiences for the players. So what do the designers who actually make video games for a living think about the show?
