to the analysis of in-game purchasing behavior in mobile games, exploring how psychological factors such as loss aversion, framing effects, and the endowment effect influence players' spending decisions. The study investigates the role of game design in encouraging or discouraging spending behavior, particularly within free-to-play models that rely on microtransactions. The paper examines how developers use pricing strategies, scarcity mechanisms, and rewards to motivate players to make purchases, and how these strategies impact player satisfaction, long-term retention, and overall game profitability. The research also considers the ethical concerns associated with in-game purchases, particularly in relation to vulnerable players.</p> <a href="https://blog-720426896196.mit-edu.top/post/3815409276" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/16.jpg" alt="Emotion Recognition Through Biometric Sensors in Mobile Gaming" title="Emotion Recognition Through Biometric Sensors in Mobile Gaming" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Evelyn Griffin</strong> <span>2025-02-03 published post</span> </div> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-12"> <div class="post-entry d-md-flex small-horizontal mb-5"> <div class="me-md-5 thumbnail mb-3 mb-md-0"> <a href="https://blog-720426896196.mit-edu.top/post/9683074125"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/12.jpg" alt="Virtual Property Rights in Mobile Games: Legal and Economic Perspectives" title="Virtual Property Rights in Mobile Games: Legal and Economic Perspectives" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-9683074125.mit-edu.top/post/9683074125/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-03</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-720426896196.mit-edu.top/post/9683074125">Virtual Property Rights in Mobile Games: Legal and Economic Perspectives</a></h2> <p class="info">This paper explores the evolution of digital narratives in mobile gaming from a posthumanist perspective, focusing on the shifting relationships between players, avatars, and game worlds. The research critically examines how mobile games engage with themes of agency, identity, and technological mediation, drawing on posthumanist theories of embodiment and subjectivity. The study analyzes how mobile games challenge traditional notions of narrative authorship, exploring the implications of emergent storytelling, procedural narrative generation, and player-driven plot progression.
