In this session, we explored embodiment in video games. We examined how games immerse players in their characters’ experiences through notable examples, then discussed how developers can use this to strengthen their projects. I provided a brief overview of embodiment and related theories, including Sigmund Freud’s concept of catharsis and Jacques Lacan’s notion of desire. Together, we analysed popular games to see how they effectively engage players and enhance the immersive experience. This discussion helped us understand the game elements that captivate players and the psychological effects that accompany that immersion.
