Abstract

Dans les études des jeux, la relation entre la forme du jeu et les narration du jeu est un sujet qui a provoqué des discussions prolongées. La ludologie, prenant en compte les différents aspects des autres moyens de communication, est une approche focalisée sur la forme du jeu et un ensemble de méthodes proposées par cette approche. Dans les études des jeux, les discussions théoriques doivent être soutenues par des analyses des exemples pris dans des jeux eux-mêmes. En faisant une analyse de la forme du jeu, cette recherche examine comment la narration du jeu de DayZ est établi. Dans le cadre du concept de gameplay, le focus est porté sur le processus de développement, sur le monde, la narration, l'infrastructure technologique et les mécanismes du jeu DayZ. L’ensemble des actions des joueurs dans le jeu est un autre élément qui complète le gameplay. Les méthodes ethnographiques du jeu numérique ont été utilisées pour discuter la manière par laquelle les joueurs créent leurs propres histoires. La communauté Village a été prise comme exemple afin de travailler sur la culture et les productions du joueur. Tandis que de nos jours les elements de la violence visuelle rencontrés dans les jeux digitaux font fréquemment partie des recherches, cette recherche souligne les différentes dimensions des sens apparus au cours du temps qu’on joue, en se tournant surtout vers les productions communes composées de solidarité, de coopération et d’amitié.

Abstract

The relation between game narrative and game form is a subject that has provoked protracted discussion in game studies. As an approach and a set of methods proposed by this approach, ludology makes a distinction between games and other media and focuses on game form. Theoretical discussions in game studies need to be supported by the analyzes of the examples taken from the games themselves. This study examines how the narrative of DayZ is constructed by conducting a game-formal analysis. To this aim, the study focuses on the concept of gameplay, which is connected to the development process, gameworld, story, technical base, and game mechanics of the game. Another element that completes the gameplay is the set of player actions in the game. The ethnographic methods of digital play have been used to discuss how players create their own stories. The Village community was taken as an example to work on the player's culture and productions. While contemporary research frequently chooses to handle the theme of violence in digital games, this paper underlines different dimensions of meanings emerging from gameplay by elaborating on the productions of DayZ communities, which shows solidarity, co-operation, and friendship.

Abstract

Oyun çalışmalarında oyun biçimi ve oyun anlatılarının ilişkisi uzun süren tartışmalara neden olmuş bir konudur. Ludoloji, oyunların diğer iletişim araçlarından farklı yönlerini göz önünde bulundurarak, oyun biçimini merkeze alan bir ekol ve bu ekolün önerdiği yöntemler bütünüdür. Oyun çalışmalarındaki kuramsal tartışmaların, somut oyun örneklerinin analizi ile desteklenmesi gerekmektedir. Bu çalışmada DayZ oyununun oyun biçimsel bir analizi yapılarak oyun anlatısının nasıl kurulduğu incelenmektedir. Oynanış kavramı çerçevesinde DayZ’nin geliştirme süreci, oyun dünyası, öyküsü, teknolojik altyapısı ve oyun mekaniklerine odaklanılmaktadır. Oynanışı tamamlayan diğer bir unsur da oyuncuların oyun içindeki eylemleridir. Oyuncuların kendi öykülerini nasıl oluşturdukları ele alınırken, dijital oyun etnografisi yöntemlerinden faydalanılmıştır. Oyuncu kültürü ve üretimleri için örnek olarak Village topluluğu alınmıştır. Dijital oyunlarda görsel şiddet öğelerinin en sık ele alınan araştırma konusu olduğu günümüz şartlarında, bu çalışma DayZ oyunu çevresindeki toplulukların yardımlaşma, iş birliği ve dostluk içeren ortak üretimlerine yönelerek oynanışta ortaya çıkan anlamların farklı boyutlarının da altını çizmektedir.
