In Response To: Re: Bungie speaks... on Behavioral Game Design (serpx)


: In my opinion, this is going to be a subjective matter. As one who studies
: psychology, and is a gamer, I think it is smart for developers to
: incorporate more psychological ideas into their game designs. It is
: important, and I agree, for players to create their own rewards to build
: intrinsic motivation, but I feel external rewards have their place in
: games as well, as I think they can help players not only get into
: different aspects of the games, but also fabricate intrinsic motivators
: which may not have been fabricated without intelligently placed external
: rewards.

I simply cannot fathom why your would need to do this. If a player has an interest in playing the game a certain way, he will play it that way. Otherwise, he won't. If the only thing making him play that way is the reward, then he is being manipulated to do something he otherwise wouldn't want to do.
