Vainamoinen: I rather link to whtm than direct people to Roosh's website, particularly when Futrelle uses plenty of direct quotes to make his argument. Linking to reaxxion to make a point is way enough for one day.
As to "
Hitler spawns", last I heard, they decided to not procreate on purpose.
Shadowstalker16: Yeah, they decided to ignore the facts and change the topic.
I read their ''study'' and found some stuff:
1.At the beginning of the 2010 academic year, 29 Design and Production students were
surveyed about their play preferences, age, gender, ethnicity
and personality type
=ETHINICITY??? Are they seriously implying people from different skin colours actually think differently? What shit is this? Besides taking 30 people. Same with gender.
2.Only 7/30 didn't include 1st and 3rd person shooters in their ''all time favorites''. Classified as FPS/TPS are: GoW, CoD, Bioshock, HL2 and L4D2. I think we can all agree they're so similar to be included in that ''genre''.
Pokemon, Red Dead Redemption and LoL are classified as RPGs XD XD XD
LOLOLOLOLOL
Yo, dumbfuck.
Ethnicity (ie: cultural group) is not the same as race (ie: absolutely unscientific nonsense only valid as the basis for racism).
On top of that, it's a
study : one includes variables like that to see if it makes a difference.
ie: If different cultural groups from different ethnic backgrounds actually prefer different genres & content & mechanics, etc.
(You're not terribly good at the whole 'science' thing, are you? Not surprised, given your blatant inability to apply critical analysis to anything with any degree of competence.)
What would you class Pokémon as if not a 'role-playing game', hm? Adventure?
League of Legends does indeed possess RPG elements, though I'd argue it's more 'Action RTS'.
Red Dead Redemption is more an Adventure game, but again has RPG elements.
(Here's the stunning explanation one might easily surmise from the available data:
They didn't have an 'adventure' or 'action RTS' genre.
Dead simple.)
.. and yes, I'd like to think we
can agree that games where one nigh-exclusively shoots things are 'shooters'.
You proceed through the game world on a largely linear path shooting at things that get in the way.
(Optional bonuses for sometimes not shooting things, or not shooting certain things, do not alter that the main objective is 'shoot the things to proceed'.)
I mean, by all means if you'd rather sit there casually dismissing things because you're busy demonstrating a glaring amount of bias.. go ahead.
Just don't pretend you actually know what you're talking about.
