[VentilatorOfDoom]

yes, I remember, allegedly these are new infos, but whatever...

 

[racofer]

was among the most popular squad members selected for missions

Nobody, then?

 

[SimpleComplexity]

Another fun fact: 90% played this game with their hand around their dick.

 

[Drakron]

* Only 50% of players have fully upgraded the <Ship> by the end of the game

Does the Medical Bay counts? because 50% of id ... that does sound about right.

 

[Brotherman Bill]

36% of players chose the in the end-game

The what?

 

[VentilatorOfDoom]

renegade choice, can't you read?

The only data that we get are in terms of events -- little things that happen in the game," explained Hudson. "Let's say if we want to know whether players skip lines of dialogue, we can have that become a little event that gets sent up. It's all completely anonymous, so all we get is raw numbers for how many times these kinds of events occur. Then we can start getting ratios and comparing proportions and things like that. It becomes this mass of numbers, and then we have to try to figure out how we would interpret that.

Biofags dont like to read so they are putting emotes instead of sentences?

Can't you copy-paste correctly?

82% play as male Shepard, 18% as female Shepard

What the fuck is wrong with those people? Having a choice between looking at a female ass and a male ass through the game they pick the male one? People who bought this game are way too gay.

have you considered that straight people do not look at the ass of the male protagonist?

 

[Andyman Messiah]

I suppose some look at the broad shoulders.

Personally, I'm proud to say I'm one of those who prefer a nice, well-toned female butt with good voice acting.

Yes, your point is?

 

[Brother None]

Might want to copy-paste again indeed, VoD, seems the post took out the spoiler-covered notes.

Wasn't this posted ages ago already?

Had you clicked the link in the newspost you'd note these stats are new and more detailed compared to the IGN stats that the article also refers to.

You're on a roll, aren't you?

I actually never click links or read newsposts. Especially not news about useless statistics. The first time was remotely interesting as a "hey, Bio is keeping tabs on us" thing but this time? S to the h to the rug. Yeeeahh!

Also, how am I supposed to know these stats are new? I don't remember the old newspost. 69% had Shepard lose his virginity in ME2. Meh.

Aliens and spacetravel is far more realistic than a very very strong woman. My suspension of disbelief just can't handle a very strong woman as a protagonist.

 

[Sceptic]

Personally, I'm proud to say I'm one of those who prefer a nice, well-toned female butt with good voice acting.

I couldn't care less whether I'm looking at a male or female butt (seriously guys, are we discussing which is better and why when BOTH are a fucking BUNCH OF POLYGONS? Andhaira would be proud) but I will definitely pick the female with good voice acting over the male with the horrible, horrible one.

 

[Oaken]

Most people prefer to play as their own gender.

And you do know that mainstream gamers know nothing about quality.

 

[Felix]

The face of people who are male but play as female in games:

because they fail to get girls's asses IRL

 

[Serious_Business]

Fuck you all male shep is where its at, he sounds like an ambitious fast food manager or something, so fucking graet I can't handle myself
