Abstract
Methods and systems for modifying game content include providing content of a video game to a first user. A request is received from a second user for accessing the video game. Responsive to the request, behavior of the first user is determined and content representing the second user is modified to hide the identity of the second user. The modified content representing the second user is included with content of the video game presented to the first user, and the unmodified content representing the second user is included with content of the video game presented to the second user.
