Our original target users are the elderly who are out of touch with the society. However, in the process of design concept, we realized that this concept is not only suitable for the elderly, but also of great help to the young people. Therefore, we conducted more interviews with the elderly and young people to see whether they have demand for our products. However, in the process of investigation, we found that we it is relatively hard to find and get in contact with the older people who are out of touch with society. And by communicating with them we found that they are not willing to communicate with others, and they even express their strong willingness not to change their living habits. At the same time, we also interviewed the elderly who have ordinary social life. They are positive and optimistic about their lives, and their own fixed circles will also regularly socialize with acquaintances.
On the contrary, in interviews with young people, we found that most young people thought they had social barriers, especially when they were socializing with strangers for the first time. During the interview we can feel their anxiety and the desire to communicate with others. One of the interviewees said that she would feel blushing and her heart beat faster when she participated in an activity with so many strangers and felt uncomfortable. Although the process will be embarrassing, they will still participate in activities that can help them to build connection with the strangers because they want to take the initiative to jump out of the comfort circle and make new friends. In addition, they also prefer social activities with themes, such as human CS and werewolf killing. So, we will do relevant modification to the target audience of our products from the extrovert elderly people to those who have social difficulties.
