REFLECTION

Experience

• This research experience was very challenging for me to understand that character attachment in video games refers to the emotional bond formed between the player and the virtual character (player character or non-player character). Character attachment enhances players' enjoyment, engagement, and immersion in the game and influences their cognitive, emotional, and behavioral responses to the game and character.

Observations

• Through research, surveys, and reading a lot of article, I have also observed that most people are attached to characters. Character attachment in video games will have an impact on players and games. Character attachment can promote learning, memory, decision-making, social and moral judgment, and happiness in games and real life.

Findings

• Through this research, I found that character attachment can indeed have a certain impact on players and their experience in the game and it has improved the texture and experience of the game in all aspects.
