  • Casual and Hardcore Players in HBO's Westworld (2016): the Immoral and Violent Player
    Casual and Hardcore Players in HBO’s Westworld (2016): The Immoral and Violent Player MA Thesis Ellen Menger – 5689295 [email protected] Supervisor: Dr. René Glas Second reader: Dr. Jasper van Vught Utrecht University MA New Media & Digital Culture MCMV10009 - THE-Masterthesis/ MA NMDC May 8, 2017 Abstract This thesis approaches the HBO series Westworld (2016) through the lens of game studies and interprets the series as a commentary on the stereotype of casual and hardcore players and immoral violence in video games. By performing a textual analysis, this thesis explores how Westworld as a series makes use of the casual and hardcore player stereotype, looking at the way the series explores the construction of player categories and how it ties these to the dialogue about violence and immoral behaviour in video games. Keywords: Westworld, games, player types, Western, casual gamer, hardcore gamer, violence, ethics, morals SPOILER WARNING This thesis reveals certain plot twists that may spoil part of the storyline of the first season of HBO’s Westworld. If you have not watched the series, read at your own risk. Table of Contents 1.
