Abstract

With the development of chinese online games rapidly, Game markets need the actual possibilities of practical game's technology increasingly. Additionally Lack of originality of the Chinese online games couldn't be appropriated for consumer's preferences, so it is necessary that the talents in a game design and management should be cultivated. When we cultivate the talents, we should pay attention to the various styles in different countries, that is why we will make a comparative study on the games respectively achieved in China, Japan, and Korea according to the romance of the three kingdoms. They respected the traditional Chinese cultures as materials of this theme, it is worth learning and referencing. We had selected representative 6 games among 25 three Kingdom games and 2 games for each country as a stimulus of the game architectural design in the backgrounds design, with using of SPSS regression analysis, Therefore, this research will provide the references for the better development talents of whom can not only understand Chinese traditional culture but also adapt to the needs of game development.

게임개발환경의 빠른 성장에 맞춰 게임시장은 더욱 실질적인 게임기술을 필요로 하지만 중국 온라인 게임은 같은 장르의 대부분 게임 스타일이 비슷하며 게임유저 선호에 밀접한 독창성에 대한 부분은 미흡하다. 따라서 전 세계에 거친 유저들이 동시에 이용하는 온라인 게임의 경우 각 나라만의 게임그래픽 선호도의 지침이 중요한 사항인데 반해 제작국가의 불분명성에 기인한 디자인이 만연하다. 한국, 중국, 일본은 이미 유명한 스토리텔링의 주제인 "삼국지"를 기반으로 중국의 전통문화와 자기나라의 상황을 결합하여 게임 디자인을 진행하였다. 각 나라의 독특한 게임디자인 스타일은 분명히 존재하며 산업적 활용성 차원의 게임디자인에 도움이 되는 연구가치로써 중요한 배경을 이룬다. 본 연구는 각 나라의 25개의 "삼국지 게임"을 주제로 한 온라인 게임을 연구대상으로 게임 배경 디자인 요소를 회귀분석을 통한 비교분석을 진행하여 각 나라의 디자인 특징을 설명, 향후 동종연구자들 및 실질적인 게임그래픽 디자이너의 게임디자인 개발에 효율적인 방향을 제언하려 한다.
