A heady mixture of gunplay, melee combat and stealthy infiltration seems to be the order of the day, with multiple classes ensuring a need for teamwork among players.

  • The Style of Video Games Graphics: Analyzing the Functions of Visual Styles in Storytelling and Gameplay in Video Games
    The Style of Video Games Graphics: Analyzing the Functions of Visual Styles in Storytelling and Gameplay in Video Games by Yin Wu B.A., (New Media Arts, SIAT) Simon Fraser University, 2008 Thesis Submitted In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the School of Interactive Arts and Technology Faculty of Communication, Art and Technology Yin Wu 2012 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Fall 2012 Approval Name: Yin Wu Degree: Master of Arts Title of Thesis: The Style of Video Games Graphics: Analyzing the Functions of Visual Styles in Storytelling and Gameplay in Video Games Examining Committee: Chair: Carman Neustaedter Assistant Professor School of Interactive Arts & Technology Simon Fraser University Jim Bizzocchi, Senior Supervisor Associate Professor School of Interactive Arts & Technology Simon Fraser University Steve DiPaola, Supervisor Associate Professor School of Interactive Arts & Technology Simon Fraser University Thecla Schiphorst, External Examiner Associate Professor School of Interactive Arts & Technology Simon Fraser University Date Defended/Approved: October 09, 2012 ii Partial Copyright Licence iii Abstract Every video game has a distinct visual style however the functions of visual style in game graphics have rarely been investigated in terms of medium-specific design decisions. This thesis suggests that visual style in a video game shapes players’ gaming experience in terms of three salient dimensions: narrative pleasure, ludic challenge, and aesthetic reward. The thesis first develops a context based on the fields of aesthetics, art history, visual psychology, narrative studies and new media studies. Next it builds an analytical framework with two visual styles categories containing six separate modes. This research uses examples drawn from 29 games to illustrate and to instantiate the categories and the modes.

It must be noted that the term ‘Narratological’ is a rather loose application by the Ludologists and the implications of this are pointed out later in this chapter. 2. Roland Barthes states that the ‘infinity of the signifier refers not to some idea of the ineffable (the unnameable signified) but to that of a playing [ ...] theText is plural’. Source: Barthes, R., 1977. Image, Music, Text, in: Heath,S.(Tran.), Fontana Communications Series. Fontana, London. pp. 158–159. 3.In Gaming Globally: Production, Play, and Place (Huntemann and Aslinger, 2012),theeditors acknowledgethat ‘while gaming maybe global, gaming cultures and practices vary widely depending on the power and voice of var- ious stakeholders’ (p. 27). The paucity of games studies scholarship coming from some of the largest consumers of video games, such as South Korea, China and India, to name a few, is markedly noticeable. The lack of represen- tation of non-Western conceptions of play culture and storytelling traditions is similarly problematic. 4. Chapter 8 will engage with this issue in more detail. 5. ‘(W)reading’ is preferred over the more commonly used neologism ‘wread- ing’toemphasise the supplementarity of the reading and writingprocesses and also to differentiate it from earlier usage that might claim that the two processes are the same thing. 3 (W)Reading the Machinic Game-Narrative 6.
