Abstract

Games are both a way to enjoy leisure time and to learn. Understanding how mental processes associated with gaming work at a deeper level is very important, especially with emerging technologies such as consumer VR head-mounted display systems. One approach to better understand games is through the analysis of how individual events and components of the game affect our autonomic responses. To this end, in this paper, we analyze how the component of viewing perspectives and display types affect the reaction to specific in-game events. We do this through the collection of EEG data using a consumer EEG headset. The collected values are used to calculate Arousal-Valence and Engagement indexes. Finally, these values are compared to events happening at the collection time, and the data is analyzed to identify patterns and draw conclusions from the data. This initial analysis of selected events does not identify any representative change in values amongst different displays and viewing perspectives. These results suggest that viewing perspective and display are of less importance than may be expected for our selected events, whereas other factors such as ranking play a greater role in emotional state changes.
