In this 2019 GDC talk, Quantic Foundry's Nick Yee take a deep dive into each of the 12 motivations in the company's Gamer Motivation Model, based on Quantic Foundry's survey of over 400,000 game players.
It was a practical rundown of player motivation that equipped devs with terms to describe players' psychological underpinnings, ways to identify specific game mechanics/features they are linked to, specific game examples along the spectrum of the motivations, and intriguingly idiosyncratic aspects of each.
If you didn't catch it live at GDC this year, no worries -- Yee's talk is now completely free to watch via the official GDC YouTube channel!
In addition to this presentation, the GDC Vault and its accompanying YouTube channel offers numerous other free videos, audio recordings, and slides from many of the recent Game Developers Conference events, and the service offers even more members-only content for GDC Vault subscribers.
Those who purchased All Access passes to recent events like GDC or VRDC already have full access to GDC Vault, and interested parties can apply for the individual subscription via a GDC Vault subscription page. Group subscriptions are also available: game-related schools and development studios who sign up for GDC Vault Studio Subscriptions can receive access for their entire office or company by contacting staff via the GDC Vault group subscription page.
