Abstract

In this paper, we will examine how the performance and player believability aspects of abstract intelligent agents within video games interact and affect one another. We will present the study used to assess whether performance and believability do have an effect on one another and how much of an effect. Followed by the results to the study and a discussion on potential design approaches to produce more believable agents that still provide the level of effectiveness expected of them.
