Abstract

Видеоигры прочно утвердились в качестве влиятельной и популярной формы компьютерного программного обеспечения. Игры, которые требуют значительного времени и усилий со стороны игроков, привлекают неизменный интерес игрового сообщества и стали предметом активных исследований в академических кругах. Совмещая элементы соревнования и сотрудничества, видеоигры способствуют установлению связей между игроками. Интерактивность, важнейшая составляющая каждой видеоигры, обеспечивается разнообразными методами человеко-компьютерного взаимодействия (ЧКВ), позволяющими взаимодействовать с виртуальными окружениями. Богатство вариантов взаимодействия делает видеоигры уникальной формой культурных медиа. Однако из-за сложности этой области и её междисциплинарного характера, академическое исследование сталкивается с рядом вызовов, и дизайн взаимодействия постоянно развивается. Цель данного исследования заключается в представлении текущего состояния взаимодействий в видеоиграх в научной литературе и внесении существенного вклада в будущие академические исследования и разработку игр. Оценивая результаты исследований, сосредоточенных на влиянии взаимодействий в видеоиграх, отмечается, что социальные взаимодействия и человеко-компьютерное взаимодействие оказывают значительное влияние на уровень привязанности игроков, переживание потока, воспринимаемое удовольствие, намерения продолжать играть и поведение в отношении покупки игрового контента.

THE IMPORTANCE OF INTERACTION IN VIDEO GAMES: A LITERATURE REVIEW

Abstract

Video games are considered as influential and popular forms in the field of computer software. Games, which demand considerable time and effort from players, attract the interest of the gaming ecosystem and have become a frequent subject of academic research in recent times. Video games bring individuals together by seamlessly combining elements of competition and cooperation and encouraging connections among players. Moreover, all video games employ various Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) methods to enable players to interact with virtual environments. Additionally, with the diverse range of interaction opportunities they offer, they stand out as a distinct form of cultural media. However, due to the complexity of this field and its incorporation of interdisciplinary concepts, academic research faces certain challenges, and interaction design is constantly evolving. This study aims to present the current state of video game interactions in the literature and contribute to future academic research and game designs. When evaluating the findings from studies focusing on the effects of interactions in video games, it is observed that social interactions and human-computer interactions influence players' levels of attachment, flow experiences, perceived enjoyment, intentions to continue playing, and in-game purchasing behaviors.

VİDEO OYUNLARINDA ETKİLEŞİMİN ÖNEMİ: BİR LİTERATÜR TARAMASI

Abstract

Video oyunları, bilgisayar yazılımı alanında etkili ve popüler bir form olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Oyuncuların oldukça fazla zaman ve çaba harcadığı oyunlar hem oyun ekosisteminin ilgisini çekmekte hem de son dönemde akademik çalışmalara sıklıkla konu olmaktadır. Video oyunları, rekabet ve iş birliği unsurlarını sorunsuz bir şekilde birleştirerek ve oyuncular arasında bağlantı kurmayı teşvik ederek bireyleri bir araya getirmektedir. Bunun yanı sıra tüm video oyunları, çeşitli insan-bilgisayar etkileşimi (İBE) yöntemlerini kullanarak oyuncuların sanal bir ortamla etkileşime geçebilmelerini sağlamaktadır. Ayrıca kullanıcılara sunduğu çeşitli etkileşim imkanlarıyla farklı bir kültürel medya türü olarak öne çıkmaktadır. Ancak bu alanın karmaşıklığı ve disiplinler arası kavramları da içermesi nedeniyle akademik çalışmalar için birtakım zorluklar oluşturmakta ve etkileşim tasarımı sürekli olarak yenilenmektedir. Bu çalışma, video oyunları etkileşimleri konusunda literatürdeki mevcut durumu ortaya koyarak gelecekte yapılacak akademik çalışmalara ve oyun tasarımlarına katkı sağlamayı amaçlamaktadır. Video oyunlarda etkileşimin etkilerine yönelik yapılan çalışmalardan derlenen sonuçlar değerlendirildiğinde sosyal etkileşimlerin ve insan-bilgisayar etkileşimlerinin, oyuncuların bağlanma düzeylerini, akış deneyimlerini, algılanan keyfi, oyun oynamaya devam etme niyetlerini ve oyun içi satın alma davranışlarını etkilediği görülmüştür.
