The role of skinbetting in game (platform) economies
Publikation: Konferencebidrag › Konferenceabstrakt til konference › Forskning › fagfællebedømt
This panel presents a range of contemporary approaches to studying the ongoing convergence between video games, digital gambling, and other new monetization methods. In today's gaming environment, familiar economic capital mixes with gaming capital based on in-game social exchanges and performance, representing a central part of the contemporary ludo mix. With visible and impactful contemporary controversies, and growing legal and regulatory interest, this is a vital moment to consider the evolving roles of gambling in digital games. Given interest in this area from many disciplinary fields and scholars, this panel is designed to rapidly highlight a number of approaches to tackling these emerging questions, especially valuable in such a new and not-yet-formalised area of game studies. It should lay a foundation for the future study, and will bring together and generate conversations between diverse scholars - both in the panel, and attending the panel - with interests in this area.
