summary
Survey of 250 participants categorizes player reports into seven themes and links those themes to quantitative measures (need satisfaction, PXI) rather than just ability metrics. Key findings: heroic victories follow long failure, out of their hands describes failures caused by others (toxic teammates, sexist harassment), and some disempowering moments score high on appreciation and meaning.
