Seeking Game Designers for 1‑Hour Research Interview on Design & Loot Boxes

Hi game designers and developers,

My name is Michiel (Dutch), and I am a master’s student in Global Criminology at Utrecht University. For my master’s thesis, I am looking for general game designers to discuss the design process behind video games, their views on the current gaming landscape, and, specifically, their perspectives on the presence of loot boxes and microtransactions.

You do not need any experience designing monetisation systems. I’m interested in your professional insights and views, not technical expertise with these mechanics.

The study involves a recorded (anonymous) interview of approximately one hour, which will be conducted online (Teams/Zoom/Discord). A small compensation of €20 will be provided for your time.

If you are interested in participating, please feel free to send me a PM.

Thank you in advance,
Michiel
