• "I think my point is that games don't have a complete set of "ludology" theory yet, so you've basically skipped all of those other theories and gone right to reader response when that's just one possible lens we can view something through."
• "If "ludology" is the study of games, would "ludic" be an adjective that describes the game-ness of things?"
• "Personally, I worry about trying to think of "ludology" or "games studies" as a new discipline, rather than trying to use the methodologies of existing disciplines anthropology, sociology, aethetics, narratology, performance studies to examine games."
