It's amazing that some people are so arrogant that they think humans are the only species capable of playing and being anything but bots that respond to stimulation. It's equally ignorant to assume they don't have emotions as it is to assume they do. We literally don't know, but the harm in assuming they don't is people get a free pass to be cruel without guilt. If you assume they do then maybe you'll think twice about torturing animals or destroying their habitats.
