DIGITAL GAMES: DESIGN REQUIREMENTS AND PLAYER PSYCHOLOGY
Journal Title: AJIT-e: Bilişim Teknolojileri Online Dergisi - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 19
Abstract
Computer game design is not only about algorithms, scripts and logic. Games are interactive environments and gamers are humans, so it should be remembered that gamer interaction is a social phenomenon ve the psychological components that underlie the concept of stepping into an alternative reality can not be ignored. The realism, playability, understandability, believability of the virtual world and player enjoyment are important design requirements. The player should feel himself in the world mediated by the computer and should belive that he/she exists there. The player should also feel a sense of control over the events and should think that he/she can affect the virtual environment. Looking into a game from the player's perspective is very important if your aim is to design the games that players want, not the games that the designers want to design.
