    DescriptionDescription: In this episode, we talk with Mata Haggis-Burridge—game designer, writer, and professor—about diversity in games, both behind the scenes and in the stories we tell. We explore why diversity isn’t just a moral issue, but a smart business move, how representation (or the lack of it) impacts players, and what the industry still needs to work on. Mata brings both academic insight and industry experience to the conversation, offering a thoughtful look at where we are now and where we need to go. If you care about the future of games as a truly global and inclusive medium, this episode is one you’ll want to hear.
