In a virtual world (VW) of massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs), collaboration and communication are provided through the Internet between MMORPG-ready devices such as the Microsoft Xbox, and Sony PlayStation, and by using the Web browser. Gamers can play against other gamers without seeing the opponent face-to-face. Playing games this way has become a social phenomenon. For example, chess players can play against other chess players.
Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:
Describe cognitive social phenomena that occur specifically to the context of the MMORPG that wouldn't happen in a face-to-face chess game.
Compare and contrast the MMORPG interaction environment and a face-to-face environment where chess is being played on a real chessboard.
Identify if the environment has an impact on the player' s ability to play chess.
List and describe the user interface guidelines that should apply to designing MMORPGs.
