The topic that I’m gonna set on is How gaming creates communities for people who need it and just want to be with other people who like the same things as them. The reason that I chose this Beat is that it relates to me personally because I also found my group of friends and a community I could be a part of because of gaming and with that I’ve found plenty of people who have the same interests as me. The problem I had with this beat was finding articles that I think should be used in my paper, they were plenty of articles but I struggle finding one I wanted to use. For fieldwork, I plan on interviewing people I met through gaming and seeing their experience on how they found communities themselves.

It may be that interviews will be your best source anyway. Once you get going, you’ll probably see how some article that you’ve rejected at this point can help you make your argument. Trust the process.
