The Gear Grind (The Psychology of Hack & Slashes) AKA How Games Hook us AKA Operant Conditioning in Video Games looks at how games exploit human psychology to fire off dopamine in our brains. This release is at the heart of the addiction that many people have felt playing games like Diablo 2 and 3, Path of Exile, and many others.

The raw data for the Excel graphs will be made available with the conclusion of this analysis, which is coming soon!
