• Plays to people strengths
• If interactive doesn't work, can make it into animation only
• Is different to premiere
• Learning opportunity for story
• Chance to recycle visuals
• Opportunity to learn and grow

CONS

• Peoples core talents not utilized
• Choices need to have meaning (not like Telltale games)
• Its very complicated to create a good story for a choose your own adventure
• How will we display this effectively?
• The flowchart for this could complicated and messy
• There isn't a lot of time to create something like this
• No time has been suggested for project
• No room for error which will cause so much stress later on (James disagrees because errors happen in the industry/Edwin counterpoint is we don't have the resources and time)
• Script writing and storyboarding needs to be done by proposal
• Don't know how to create this
• A lot of time involved in the creation
• Not a traditional premiere
• Visuals could be less developed due to time
• Possibly less chance to be cinematic
• Not all work viewed by each player (does need replayability)
• In total a large amount of animation time (depending on which route is played)
• Story could become complicated
