What is Self-Determination Theory?

On today’s episode we’ll answer the question: “What is Self-Determination Theory?” Making sure that your players have autonomy in your game is important. They need to know that they have the agency and the ability to do something. It’s also important that they feel competent. Players need to know that they have a reasonable chance of success when taking actions in the game. Likewise, players need to also feel that their actions are related to other effects in the game. This includes the environment, characters, and other players.
