description | As the name suggests, Towards Game Translation User Research (GTUR) is one of the most recent contributions to the canon of publications on the methodological foundations of game localization research. However, there is more to the book than meets the eyes and the discussions presented on the book could provide ontological refinements when it comes to the study of video games, on the one hand, and video game players, on the other. At its core, the Element is concerned with providing a blueprint to conducting user-centric studies in the context of game localization (cf. Deckert & Hejduk, 2024), by bringing together insights from reception studies in audiovisual translation, on the one hand, and human-computer interaction, on the other. |
