RPG: o jogo e sua contribuição no desenvolvimento da comunicação em Boa Esperança

Abstract

Games have always been part of daily in societies. Since prehistory, human beings already spent part of their time playing. The collective games provide a better relationship and communication among their players, since in some of them it is necessary both the narration of their plays and also the team work. With RPGs (role-playing games), this scenario is no different, since dialogue in this style of play is essential. This work aims to describe the benefits of these RPG games in the development of the ability to communicate of their practitioners in Boa Esperança, Minas Gerais, analyzing some of their contributions. For this to be possible, a case study was carried out, with bibliographical research and interview among active players, in order to know if these games influenced or not the communication between them. With the study, it was found that RPGs have a positive influence on communication development, while encouraging problem solving, stimulating creativity, prioritizing teamwork, and especially orality, as both players and the master need to describe orally your next move so that everyone in the group can clearly understand.
