Communication in World of Warcraft and my identity. I will be exploring the differences in the way I speak in-game and how I speak in real life. I will also include what can be established from the way a player speaks in game and the image I try to project when playing.
I will investigate the way people speak by questioning people in-game on how they speak and what image they try to project with it. This will give me a clear understanding on the reason people speak in the way they do.
After quizing some online friends and observing my own in-game dialogue, I noticed that most players shortended thier words to initials or abbreviations in moments when urgency is required. Also the way i speak in game is very different as the game gives you a chance to make a good impression on anyone who you first meet. I try to project a fun, focused and intelligent personality to other gamers.
