The Scrollies Sqadnado is joined by LordTreborian! The three discuss the use of hub worlds in video games, what they like about them, and how they have evolved into modern gaming.
Before game systems could handle large, free open exploring, video game developers used other formats to get the player from one area to the next. Hub worlds in video games serve as a place of rest, skill and equipment checks, and as quick portals to new levels and new places to explore. However, the landscape of gaming has changed since the heyday of hub worlds in video games, but they are being used in new ways to accommodate players.
Check out SqatCobblr on Twitch and YouTube and TeamRatnado as they do their thing. Likewise, make sure to say hello to LordTreborian on his stream!
