More Conflict
The video explained four kinds of conflict:
- Person vs. Person
- Person vs. Nature
- Person vs. Society
- Person vs. Self
In the 21st Century, there are new "enemies" we can add to the list:
Person vs. Technology
This is a conflict in which the main character (protagonist) resists technological forces. He or she may battle robots, hostile computers, or just struggle to accept or use the technology of a changing world.
Person vs. the Supernatural
This is a conflict in which the main character (protagonist) may battle monsters or strange creatures, challenge beings with magical powers, or encounter hostile aliens.
