Title: Video Game Study / Absurdly Forgiving Teacher Post by: CtelinAjira on May 11, 2014, 10:25:51 AM I have no idea why my statistics professor is giving me two weeks extra time on my final project. Nevertheless, I thank him for it, and need to pounce on this opportunity while it lasts.
I would appreciate it very much if you would answer all three questions below. How many hours a day do you spend playing video games? • 0-4 hours • 4-8 hours • 8-12 hours • 12+ hours How many hours do you spend around friends? • 0-4 hours • 4-8 hours • 8-12 hours • 12+ hours Which genre of video game do you play the most? • Role-Playing Games • First-Person Shooters • Fighting Games Title: Re: Video Game Study / Absurdly Forgiving Teacher Post by: Crabmaster2000 on May 11, 2014, 12:01:01 PM O-4

12+ (not every day, i only see friends on weekends or the odd weekday, but they live somewhat far from me so it's nearly always staying the night) FPS Title: Re: Video Game Study / Absurdly Forgiving Teacher Post by: Duke.Togo on May 11, 2014, 02:42:04 PM 0-4
4-8 I'd like more choices, but I will say RPG. Title: Re: Video Game Study / Absurdly Forgiving Teacher Post by: OatBob on May 11, 2014, 02:47:23 PM 0-4

4-8 RPG (No Racing option?) Title: Re: Video Game Study / Absurdly Forgiving Teacher Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on May 11, 2014, 03:56:57 PM Yeah...this is automatically flawed. There are no definitions for what "friends" are considered, and genre is something with not enough valid options to consider. FPS is also considered a subgenre, not a genre.

0-4 is more accurate but it's close 0-4 on friends RPGs Title: Re: Video Game Study / Absurdly Forgiving Teacher Post by: Fleach on May 12, 2014, 09:04:08 PM 0-4
0-4 Role Playing Games Title: Re: Video Game Study / Absurdly Forgiving Teacher Post by: Tynstar on May 13, 2014, 03:41:00 PM How many hours a day do you spend playing video games?
• 0-4 hours How many hours do you spend around friends? • 0-4 hours Which genre of video game do you play the most? • Ones with easy achievements Title: Re: Video Game Study / Absurdly Forgiving Teacher Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on May 13, 2014, 03:45:18 PM That's not a genre! You should just pick Action, since those tend to be the easiest. But, you know, a genre that spans over 30% of releases isn't represented. ::)
Not that this chart isn't flawed, considering that Puzzle is wrapped into Casual.
