Abstract

This study aimed to observe the potential of ARPG in the development player’s decision-making. Due to the lack of the present research on ARPG as it is a sub-genre, this paper serves to provide some literature on ARPG or specifically in this paper, Genshin Impact, due to its current growth and popularity. This paper has two research objectives which are (a) to examine the factor players chosen to engage in ARPG (Genshin Impact), and (b) to explore the decision-making development of the players over time from lower level to their current level in-game. The data is gathered from six (6) Malaysian World Level 8 Genshin Impact players with previous data of Spiral Abyss (2021/5). The research design is of qualitative; hence a semi-structured interview is done with the participants to gather data. The data is then analyzed through thematic analysis for the first objective and content analysis for the second research objective. The findings from the analysis shows that there are four factors for players to choose Genshin Impact which are marketing and recommendations, time of release, real money investment and interest and attachment to game content. It also shows that the player’s decision making has a generally positive development after 12 months. To conclude, there are multiple factors for players to choose Genshin Impact and ARPG (Genshin Impact) has the potential in development of player’s decisionmaking.
