Shole Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Well I just had a random thought, do you think Games history will be thought in general schools (As in not tech related schools), like part of actual history? This is my shower thought of the day lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blackangel Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 If it's a class on programming or digital design, then it's a possibility that video games might come up. But as for a class specifically on gaming and nothing else, I don't see that ever happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I don't see why not. It's part of our history. I doubt most schools would make it a whole subject or something you'd focus your studies on, but I'm sure it's mentioned in text books in schools all over the country and world. I know I've seen video games and stuff in some of my school text books in the past. Especially if that class pertains to coding, development, tech etc. I too don't see a class being a reality, at least not for a long time yet.

Reality vs Adventure Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I'm sure it's part of art history that could be taught in art class. I don't see it making regular history unless video games were born from military invention or helped shape an important event in some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boblee Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 I believe that if the government and educational institutions decide it's something that's needed to taught in school, they will definitely make it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely agree with you on this one because they are the parties that's going to be deciding what stands and what get kicked out of the window.

Seriously, even if they eventually don't get to teach it in schools, it's already a big history lessons from parents to their kids that's being passed down from generation to generation.

To be very honest with you, I really believe that gamers are actually the better and best propagators for games to be passed from gamers to gamers.

Exactly, who else would propagate the old game that are still not the gamers who are into its play? I don't expect anything less from them.

Kane99 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I think what would happen, is it'll be taught in computer and tech classes maybe. But if anything it'll be an elective or something you can learn on the side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's something that that's most likely to happen should the academic system approve of it for not having any derailing effects on other studies.

I think that's happening in a way right now but it's not too pronounced to be very popular but with time it's going to be very open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boblee Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 It's just like how the world and gamers have started embracing the use of VR in games, the same thing would happen with teaching it in schools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 One thing I know for sure is that no matter how games develop in the future, old classic games will never die off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
