Tiivistelmä
Immersion and the ways it works is a much discussed topic especially in the game industry. To understand how immersion is implemented into games, immersive details and elements were investigated.
Each element of game design is present when discussing immersive details such as environment design, narrative design, character design, and sound design. With all elements working together in detail work, as many human senses are activated as possible, which creates a highly immersive experience.
To see how personal immersion is and if it can be measured, a survey and interviews were conducted. Conclusions of both showed that while immersion and how it is seen varies from person to person, there are certain elements in games that players actively notice and appreciate. Other details may go unnoticed but may be observed on an unconscious level. Immersion and the ways it works is a much discussed topic especially in the game industry.
