This document summarizes Jesse Schell's presentation to the ABK Studio Summit in 2019. It addresses five main questions: 1) What venues are best for games? 2) What could disrupt our studio? 3) What do we need to invent? 4) What is our relationship with players? 5) What questions are we afraid to ask? The presentation explores topics like emerging technologies, the types of fantasy in games, and having an authentic relationship with players based on goodwill rather than deception. It advocates asking difficult questions to drive innovation in the games industry.
