Notas del editor
- I am xy my background is anthropology and communications
- The fact that social games are not real seem pretty obvious, BUT, especially in social networks, we see that social games have been used for a variety of different purposes all very different from the original goal of play, that is play a game for its own sake and not with a second agenda. The games we see here are MMOs, fictional worlds, immersive, they require high engagement, (they are not for free)
- why is it so important to distinguish the psychological processes involved in processing “real” from “fictional”?
- Why is that relevant? Because If there is a fictional element, then everything we see and do is not “taken seriously”, lack of responsibility, freedom, spontaneity (other characteristics of playfulness barnett) that entails: different attitude towards trust, (we are more trustful, although authority figures can be devaluated by the playful setting and we need alternative claims to credibility, like expert opinion or other kinds of authority, like magical beings who know all)
- Shortly, as this is not our theme
- Interaction with current events and real life dynamics
