Abstract

This study examined to the aspects of capital and class structure, focusing on 'Reproduction' of Bourdieu, P, through collecting the post titles of the game community of online FPS games 'Overwatch' and 'Battleground', related to keyword, 'Game Hack'. The data used in the study was collected and refined through the statistical program R and analyzed by the analysis site 'Bigkinds'. At results, we will reveal that the class structure of the online FPS gamer group is based on cultural capital and reproduction, and suggest the right direction for the Game Hack regulation policy from the point of view of the cultural capital theory.

본 연구는 온라인 FPS게임 '오버워치', '배틀그라운드'의 커뮤니티 게시글 제목을 '핵'이라는 키워드를 중심으로 수집하여 살피고, 이를 부르디외의 '재생산' 개념을 근간으로 하여 해석해 봄으로써 온라인 FPS게임 '오버워치'와 '배틀그라운드' 유저가 갖는 자본의 양상 및 계급 구조에 대하여 살펴보고자 하였다. 연구에 활용된 데이터는 통계프로그램 R과 키워드 분석 사이트인 '빅카인즈'를 통해 수집 및 정제되었다. 이를 통해 온라인 FPS 게이머 집단의 계급 구조가 문화자본 중심으로 이루어져 재생산되고 있음을 밝히고, 문화자본 중심의 계급 구조 속에서 게임 핵 규제 정책이 나아가야할 올바른 방향성까지도 제언해보고자 한다.
