Authenticity in the Music of Video Games explores the many facets
of gamers' relationship to the concept of authenticity. From
historical games to hyperrealism to retro gaming, authenticity
proves to be a sticky, ever-shifting term. What do gamers believe
authenticity to be? How are their expectations structured and
manipulated by the soundtrack? Are they conscious of music's impact
on their gameplay? And how do their actions as gamers impact the
overall interaction of sound with game world and narrative?
Stephanie Lind explores three facets of authenticity-accuracy,
expectation, and emotion-through the lens of music analysis.
Ranging from harmonic analysis, mappings of musical form, to more
multimedia approaches to the overall soundtrack and game world, the
book takes a theoretical approach as well as links analysis to the
practical experience of gamers. Lind shows how specific processes
of musical organization help to structure player experience with a
focus on games as true multimedia experiences and that all three
components of authenticity are inseparable.
