  • Seven Chunks of Character Creation: Examining Acceptance of Ranges for Attributes in Role-Playing Games
    Seven Chunks of Character Creation: Examining Acceptance of Ranges for Attributes in Role-Playing Games Faculty of Department of Game Design Author(s): Malm, Karl Bachelor’s Thesis in Game Design, 15 hp Program: Game Design and Programming Supervisor: Magnus Johansson Examiner: Henrik Warpefelt June 2018 Abstract Digital game developers often struggle with creating games that are challenging but inviting towards new audiences. One of these challenges revolves around the complexity of character creation, specifically in Role-Playing Games. Presenting and utilizing statistics that a player can alter is done at a critical moment of play, often before a player has begun playing the main portion of the game. A risk therefore exists of confusing or alienating those who have adopted the game with too much information that has a significant effect on later experiences with said game. This paper sought to determine which player demographics seek or may avoid specific numerical complexity within digital games and suggests which range of decisions they would accept when presented with a new gaming experience, focusing specifically on character attributes (also known as statistics). Keywords: Character Creation, Role-Playing Games, Cognitive Psychology, Flow Abstrakt (Swedish) Digitala spelutvecklare måste ofta kämpa med att skapa spel som både lockar nya spelare men samtidigt är svåra nog att klara för att vara utmanande. En utmaning kopplad till detta är skapandet av karaktärer, specifikt i rollspel. Presentationen av karaktärsattribut som spelare kan ändra sker vid ett kritiskt moment av spelande (dess början), oftast innan en spelare har börjat spela huvuddelen av ett spel. Det existerar därför en risk av att förvirra eller skrämma bort de som införskaffat spelet, då de överväldigas av för mycket information om spelelement som har markant effekt, speciellt senare i det nämnda spelets delar.
