During a lecture, we were put into groups to answer two questions using a game narrative to back it up. With the group I was in, we went ahead and tackled Metal Gear Solid.
"What is the relationship
between the main character and the goal?
Snake’s goal in Metal Gear
Solid is to rescue the DARPA chief to obtain intelligence about the operation
Metal Gear Rex. The scenario changes when the DARPA chief dies right in front
of Snake and a new character named Meryl is instantly pull in to play to continue
the story without looking back.
Why does the character care
about it?
Snakes cares about the
situation because the antagonists can take control of the situation without his
help. Major Cambell needs to save his daughter Meryl then initiates a love
relationship between Snake and Meryl. Snake must stop Metal Gear Rex from final
phase to save the world."
These findings helped us to think about how other games
could be analysed in the same way.
