i need to write a term paper and i cant decide on the research questions bcs they are all kinda interesting?

Emotional Attachment to Game Characters

Stylized vs. Realistic Art Styles

Games as Social Spaces
(Investigates how games are used to interact with friends or communities) vp hehe

Toxic Behavior in Online Games

Perception of Fairness in Free-to-Play Games

Casual vs. Core Gaming Habits
(Studies how often players engage in casual games compared to longer, complex games)

I also can make my own i think i usually prefer to know about individual character creation and how it resonates with the players identity but as an artists it would be interesting to know what people prefer in terms of artstyle and what they like.... but the paper is only supposed to be like 3-4 pages long so yea.. i wanna do a questionnaire so it would be interesting to know peoples thoughts esp bcs this will also help me decide on my bachelor thesis

yes but more so character design and im kinda interested in people who create their own characters in a game that allows individual character creation and why they choose to make them look a cetain way. Some of them design characters looking similar to them and others completely fictional ones. Its also intersting to know if this influences the choices they make in the game depending on if the character is supposed to be a self insert or has their own characteristics ughh i wanna do it alllll

Wait that’s so interesting …. Its something I think about so much since seeing a bunch of bg3 memes about like everyone making half elves so that they can still feel fantasy while playing a self insert meanwhile I wouldn’t pick human/elf/half elf even if I WAS making a self insert in I wish I could see into these peoples brains to understand it all

this is also just my own observation but i noticed that when a person who doesnt play video games designs a character it usually resembles themselves and people with game experience tend to create fictional ones.

I'd say Toxic Behavior in Online Games is cool

But the idea you gave about the character design and what makes people chose certain looks... I dig it the most and vote for that one if not the first pff

yes i like this idea as well, esp when you wrote "i noticed that when a person who doesnt play video games designs a character it usually resembles themselves and people with game experience tend to create fictional ones." bc i never thought of that 

but otherwise: Games as Social Spaces or Perception of Fairness in Free-to-Play Games

Also if it helps I noticed a lot that people either make a char that looks like them, would be an idealized version of themselves, an oc or just a design the person deems cool, their type, or humorous and funny characters
dunno how much help it'll be but good luck with the paper!
