Abstract

Existing researches have been limited to one-dimensional analysis of game experience (enjoyment, addictive user, usability). However, we considered to analyze complex sentiments of mobile game users due to diffusion of multitasking in these days. In this study, We focused on 'collective sentiments' of mobile game users and studied 'connected emotions and mental model' of them. To support theoretical assumption, we analyzed social data which reflect intention and unintended behavior of users. As a result, multiple consumption of service, diversified patterns of information recommendation and quest experience based on networking were critical to mobile game UX.

현재까지 모바일 게임 사용자 연구는 개별 콘텐츠의 재미, 중독성, 편의성과 같은 1차적 정서를 분석하는 차원에 머물러 있다. 그러나 스마트폰의 확산 이후 사용자들의 멀티태스킹이 보편화되면서 사용자의 게임 콘텐츠 경험은 복잡해지고 있다. 따라서 다양한 행위를 동시에 수행하는 사용자의 관점에서 모바일 게임에 대한 보다 깊이 있는 분석이 필요한 상황이다. 본 연구는 집단 감성의 관점에서 모바일 게임 사용자들의 연결된 심성 모형을 포착하고자 했다. 이를 위해 사용자들의 비의도성과 의도성을 동시에 포착할 수 있는 소셜 데이터 분석을 실시했으며, 그 결과로 서비스의 교차 소비, 정보 추천방식의 다양화, 관계 기반의 과제 경험을 주요 이슈로 제시했다.
