Charles Dickens

Charles Dickens work has influenced many either with film, illustrations and in some ways games.

His books were kind of evaluation and analogy of the society he was living in. For instance Oliver Twist was evaluation on how poor people had to live in the Victorian era. 

Christmas Carol was an analogy on how the society treats each other and how we ignore those in need. Scrooge was an analogy of upper classes refusing the acknowledgement of the poor and help them. But he's more than happy to begin with to take their money.

This is a quote from Christmas Carol that best define society. People are more than willing to take and always wanting more, but always willing to feign ignorance and push others aside if it inconvenience them.

'They are Man's,' said the Spirit, looking down uponthem. 'And they cling to me, appealing from their fathers.
This boy is Ignorance. This girl is Want. Beware them both,
and all of their degree, but most of all beware this boy,
for on his brow I see that written which is Doom, unless the
writing be erased. Deny it.' cried the Spirit, stretching out
its hand towards the city. 'Slander those who tell it ye.
Admit it for your factious purposes, and make it worse.
And abide the end.'

Games these days often do the same thing with the over dramatize versions of current events that we face today or at least bring attention subjects that are effecting people in today's society.

Case and points: In Dragon Age they show that what LBGT community in a bright light and they are fact just normal people and should be accepted like any other person. This in turn show how better everyone would be if we accept others. This also reflects current events in real life that LBGT is now being accepted.

Another example of a game being an analogy of real life is Fifa 16 as it has now a woman's world cup in it. This shows that now that women are now getting equal light like their male counterparts.
