Ritgerðin byggir á tveimur rannsóknaraðferðum, annars vegar innihaldsgreiningu á 28 sögudrifnum einspilunarleikjum (e. single player games) frá árunum 2000-2013 og hins vegar hálfstöðluðum viðtölum við 17 tölvuleikjaspilara. Niðurstöður innihaldsgreiningarinnar staðfesta fyrirliggjandi þekkingu sem leitt hefur í ljós að ímyndasköpun tölvuleikja einkennist af kynjaskekkju þar sem spilanlegar persónur eru að miklum meirihluta karlkyns. Greiningin sýnir fram á endurtekið viðfangsefni tölvuleikja sem á margt sameiginlegt með uppbyggingu goðsagna. Frásögnin fjallar um hetju sem þarf að koma á jafnvægi í samfélagi sínu með því að undirgangast manndómsvígslu. Viðtölin sýndu að viðmælendum þótti mikilvægt að geta samsamað sig tölvuleikjapersónum og þar var kyn ákjósanlegasti grundvöllur samsömunar. Karlar eru almennt líklegri en konur til að flakka milli kynja í vali sínu á tölvuleikjapersónum. Vegna ríkulegs framboðs af karlpersónum í tölvuleikjum er hugsanlegt að karlar leiti að tilbreytingu í kvenpersónum en konur kjósi heldur samsömun við eigið kyn þegar það stendur til boða.

To celebrate this special anniversary we’ve put together a video giving you some highlights of our twenty-five year journey. Download from Funcom’s FTP | Embed from YouTube We’ve done pixel platformers on the Super Nintendo and SEGA Genesis (including Pocahontas, Casper, and Winter Gold). We’ve done racing games such as Speed Freaks for the PlayStation 1 and Racing Impact for the SEGA Saturn. We’ve made three major PC massively multiplayer online games where we’ve pioneered new gameplay mechanics such as auto-generated dungeons (Anarchy Online), dynamic combat (Age of Conan), and investigation missions (Secret World Legends). We’ve done The Longest Journey, one of the most critically acclaimed adventure games of all time. These days we’re finishing up Conan Exiles for the PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation, and we just announced that we are publishing Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden and will be demoing it for the first time ever at GDC in San Francisco next week (you can still secure a spot for a demo: https://meetme.so/funcom2018gdc). Since those humble beginnings back in March of 1993, we’ve released over twenty-five games across a wide range of platforms. We’ve survived major shifts in the gaming industry and we’ve had to adapt to an ever-changing market. We’ve had our ups and we’ve had our downs.

We sit down with Ragnar T�rnquist to discuss his first Anarchy Online-inspired novel. October 16, 2001. Last Friday we ran the prologue and the first chapter of the soon-to-be-released Prophet Without Honor. This first book in the Anarchy Online saga is penned by Ragnar T�rnquist, the man behind the game's story. The idea of a book that complements the experience of a game is intriguing. While Diablo and Warcraft and Alpha Centauri are all getting the novel treatment, the Anarchy Online novels are meant to reveal the already prodigious and comprehensive backstory that went into the game. Since most of the material is hidden from players of the game (or at best, only hinted at), Ragnar thought it would be interesting to reveal the background of the world in book form.
