Meeting after meeting, clients ask the same question: “Do you use AI for this?” Whether we’re discussing user research, prototyping, or strategy, the expectation is that artificial intelligence has somehow become a mandatory ingredient in every stage of design.

As artificial intelligence—particularly large language models (LLMs)—becomes embedded across platforms, a shift is occurring in how content, interfaces, and experiences are designed. We are no longer designing just for humans. We are designing in a hybrid environment where LLMs are often the first to parse, evaluate, or summarize our work before it reaches the user.… The post Designing for Users in AI-Dominated Environments appeared first on VERSIONS®.| VERSIONS®
AI applications promise a lot from automation, to personalization and intelligence but when users encounter them, the experience often feels disconnected, confusing, or even intimidating. That’s not a failure of the technology. It’s a failure of the interface. Great UX doesn’t just help people understand what an AI does, it makes them feel in control,… The post Designing Better UX for AI Applications appeared first on VERSIONS®.| VERSIONS®

June 13, 2023 by Maria Galaykova | From many conversations with people new to LXD, I concluded that most of them lack examples to understand what LXD is about. So, I decided to collect and showcase several great learning experience design examples. But I faced 2 main challenges: LXD is a comparatively new discipline with a clear definition, process, and ...

I wanted to provide a bit of a status report for the Spark RPG project. I know that I have been relatively quiet on here, and thought that you might appreciate an update. The Open Beta that I launched in 2012 taught me a great deal. Playtesting did an excellent job at pointing out what […]|

I know it’s taken a while, but I am back to the discussion of inspiring creativity in games. My last post on this topic dealt with Creative Constraints, where people built off the restrictions in a game system to create something new. This time, I would like to discuss Oracles. Oracles are nuggets of information […]|
Good software is nearly essential for producing a good roleplaying game book. Over the years I have made a series of choices between different software packages and I thought I might explain my reasoning. Perhaps this may be useful to some of you. Brainstorming: I am currently undecided between using the technical solution (Freemind) or […]|

Let’s focus on the first of these approaches today; Creative Constraints. Some games are limited in scope and these constraints can help. In Vincent Baker’s game “Poisn’d”, players portray rapacious […]|
I thought I knew what I was doing last year. My plan had been to write up the text of the game, then simply make a _few_ revisions based on the playtesting. I thought that my design _must_ have been advanced enough that I could commission art. I expected that I could finish […]|
