🎮 Connection to the Digital Creative Economy:
“Final Fantasy VII” proved that interactive narratives can turn a game into an emotional and culturally impactful experience. It didn’t just push the gaming industry forward—it influenced digital content creation, from streaming and fandoms to transmedia storytelling, becoming a precursor to what we now call expanded universes in digital entertainment.
🐲 Barkley breaks it down:
“If an RPG from 1997 can still have a passionate fanbase today, that means telling great stories in the digital space is one of the pillars of the creative economy! Content creators, developers, and artists can take a huge lesson from this: a strong narrative is timeless and has the power to build loyal communities!”
🚀 Today’s lesson: Creativity combined with technology can turn any digital project into a cultural legacy!
