“Traveling through video games involves a mythological promise of open-ended opportunity, summarized in the slogan you can go there…This is the difference between moving through a game world, and being moved by it.”
-Tom Van Nuenen in Travelling through Video Games
What is You Can Go There?
YCGT is a video game travel writing project. We write short essays about memorable places in virtual worlds.
Which games do you write about?
We write about games that have mattered to us. The first series was six travel sketches about World of Warcraft and Azeroth. The second series is about the worlds of the Halo universe.
Are there any other series planned?
Currently there are three further sets of essays planned. The third series will be about Albion from Fable, as well as a return to Azeroth.
Can I write for you?
