Determine the manner in which the character progresses through the video game. "Linear" means there is one general path from the beginning to the end. "Branching" means the play progresses through a branching tree of options, or players may choose which branch(es) to complete the video game in an order they choose. "Open world" means the player has great agency to explore the game world freely and progress at their own pace. Record "other" for types of progression not outlines above.
