aside from a bit of Destiny, I have also kicked it up a gear and been playing some Legend of Kyrandia: Hand of Fate. with the awesome female protaganist Zanthia. been fifteen years since I last played this, came on about eight floppy disks. I remember some stuff but not others. currently trying to make mustard.

Student researcher Jennifer Allaway is examining the relationship between players' desires for diversity and game developers' understanding of that desire, among many other topics, for a GDC 2015 talk - you can [URL="http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/1776666/PlayerSurvey"]fill it out here[/URL] (pretty quick to do)

The questions are too leading, there isn't the i dont care option.

[eldargal]

You can rank it as unimportant.

[Psychosplodge]

No you can't you're given option to agree or disagree, becasue she's used an even number of divisions she's eliminated the central don't care point.

[Gotthammer]

On a scale of 1 to 6 (1 being not important at all, 6 being extremely important), how important is diversity to your game play experience?

If you don't care seems to me it should be a 1 as it is not important at all. And for:

I am comfortable playing game avatars:

Of a different gender than my own. etc

If you don't care you are extremely comfortable so a 6.

[Psychosplodge]

12 and 14 They're leading questions and the lack of don't care means it can be misused and considering the current issues its very poorly worded.

[eldargal]

Just put a three, it would be close enough.

[Psychosplodge]

that's what i'd have done on a five point scale but that six throws it off *tableflip*
