In this episode we talk about the role of language in character design and world building. Hosts Dr. Ibi and Dr. Joe cover topics including:


  • language ideologies, stereotypes, and othering
  • characters with different accents or speech impediments
  • spelling in conlangs inspired by real languages
  • real-world associations mapping onto fictional worlds
  • games such as the Dragon Age franchise, Pillars of Eternity, Cyberpunk 2077, Disco Elysium



Contains some strong (and other types of) language.
