people who like rich, provocative entertainment but aren't
attracted to current game play models?

Maybe me! In my next life, I guess.
Like Richard, my eyes were opened by Myst (well, actually by Spelunx,
its predecessor, which BTW I'd love to find a copy of). I am bored
bored bored by most games nowadays and so actively repelled by the
pervasive violence that even though I belong to the Game Developers

I recommend the SIGs of International Game Developers Association as
a venue for making connections:
