Longitudinal Studies

A longitudinal study is a research method where player behavior and experience are observed over an extended period. This involves repeated playtesting sessions with the same group of players, allowing for an in-depth understanding of how their interactions with the game evolve as the game itself develops and changes.

This approach is particularly effective in gauging long-term player retention, satisfaction and the overall impact of game updates and changes.
