Suositun Valtaistuinpeli (Game of Thrones) -tv-sarjan myota George R. R. Martinin Tulen ja jaan laulu -kirjasarjaan perustuvasta transmediauniversumista on tullut ilmio, jolla on faneja huomattavasti laajemmin kuin vain fantasiaharrastajien piirissa. Tassa artikkelissa pyrin selvittamaan tapoja, joilla ihmiset kokevat Valtaistuinpelin maailman, hahmot ja tapahtumat, ja sita, miten he niita tulkitsevat ja suhteuttavat omaan elamankokemukseensa. Hypoteesina on, etta Let’s Play -videot tarjoavat hedelmallisen aineiston pelien ja yleisemmin populaarikulttuurin synnyttamien kokemusten tarkasteluun.Tutkimusmenetelmanani on Game of Thrones -videopelista tehtyjen Let’s Play -videoiden analysointi erityisesti pelaaja-kertojan esiintymiseen keskittyen. Tutkimuksen aineisto on koottu satunnaisotantana kahdelta eri videonjakoalustalta (Twitch, Youtube). Aaniraidalla pelaaja-kertojat ensisijaisesti sanallistavat ruudulla nakyvia tapahtumia ja kayttavat runsaasti aikaa myos pelin edellyttamien moraalisten valintojen pohtimiseen ja selittamiseen. Videoissa on myos tarkeassa roolissa pelaaja-kertojien tunnereaktioiden esittaminen, mika korostaa Let’s Play -videoiden performatiivista luonnetta. Let’s Play -videot tarjoavat tavan seka esittaa etta kasvattaa fanikulttuurista paaomaa. Let’s Play -videoiden kautta pelaaja-kertojat osallistuvat fandomin aineettomaan vaihdantaan, tuoden oman panoksensa Valtaistuinpelin universumiin. Game of Thrones -pelin Let’s Play -videoissa pohdinta keskittyy moraalisiin valintoihin. Videot avaavat nakyman pelaaja-kertojien yksityiseen vastaanottoprosessiin ja sen aikana tapahtuvaan joustavaan erilaisten moraalikoodistojen limittymiseen. Let’s Play -videot nayttavat tarjoavan faniuden esittamiselle uudenlaisen alustan, jossa intiimi vastaanoton hetki voidaan tuottaa yhteisolliseksi kokemukseksi.   Game of Thrones Let’s Play Videos and the Reception of Popular Culture as Performance The highly popular TV series Game of Thrones has made the transmedia universe originally based on George R. R. Martin’s novel cycle The Song of Ice and Fire into a phenomenon, which has gained fans from much wider audience than fantasy fandom. In this article, I look at the ways how people experience the world, characters, and events of the Game of Thrones, and how they interpret these and relate them to their own lives. I take it as my hypothesis that Let’s Play videos provide fruitful material for scrutinizing the experiences evoked by video games, and more generally, by popular culture productions. My research method consists of analyzing Let’s Play videos based on the Game of Thrones videogame (Telltale 2014–15), focusing especially on the performance of the player-narrators. The data set of this research was sampled from two online video publication platforms (Twitch, Youtube). On the audio track the player-narrators mainly verbalize things happening on the screen while playing Game of Thrones, and they also extensively dwell in the reflections and explanations regarding moral choices prompted by the game. Showing off emotional responses of the player-narrators plays an important role, too, which emphasizes the performative aspect of Let’s Play videos. Let’s Play videos provide a way to show and increase one’s fancultural capital. Through publishing Let’s Play videos the player-narrators participate in the immaterial exchange economy of fandom, by contributing their share into the Game of Thrones universe. In the Game of Thrones Let’s Play videos the reflection focuses on moral choices. These videos open up views to private reception processes of the player-narrators, and to the flexible shifts and overlaps between various moral codes during these processes. Let’s Play videos seem to offer a new kind of platform to perform one’s fan activities, in which the intimate moment of reception may be opened up to a communal experience.
