Abstract
This thesis focuses on the narrative development in video games on the examples of the Metro universe games and the Arkhamverse. The thesis begins with an introduction and the overview of the history and the current state of the young science of game studies, its standings towards the theory of narrative and the way how the narrative is built within the video games. The games that are further analyzed are examples of transmedia storytelling, which is a method of storytelling that includes different media, each telling one fragment of an ultimately unified story. After providing the background information on these transmediations, the thesis presents an analysis of how game designers incorporated the narrative into the new interactive medium. The thesis ends with the conclusion of the analysis and the views of the position of narrative within the young and aspiring media of video games currently and in the times to come.
Abstract (croatian)
Ovaj rad fokusira se na razvoj narativa u video igrama na primjerima igara iz serijala Metro univerzuma te Batman: Arkham univerzuma. Rad započinje s uvodom i pregledom povijesti medija video igara, potom se bavi pregledom trenutačnog stanja mladih i nedovoljno definiranih studija igara, odnosa između video igara i teorije narativa, te naposljetku, načina na koji se narativ gradi u video igrama. Igre koje su potom analizirane, primjeri su transmedijalnog pričanja priče. Ovaj vid pričanja priče uključuje različite medije, od kojih svaki priča jedan fragment priče koji se ujedinjuje u jednu cjelinu. Po izlaganju pozadinskih informacija prethodno navedenih transmedijacija, u radu se izlaže analiza načina na koji su dizajneri video igara uklopili narativ u novi i interaktivni medij. Rad završava sa zaključkom analize i viđenjima pozicije narativa u mladom i perspektivnom mediju video igara u ovom trenutku i u budućnosti.
