New Daedalus Project Results Up

Thanks to TerraNova for the news that Nick Yee's Daedalus Project has new results and a new quiz available. This ongoing research project into Massively Multiplayer Gamers and their habits is probably the most comprehensive one out there. The new data is interesting as always. If you're interested, you can participate in the next portion of the survey.

Stats == Cool

Am I really the only other person besides Nick Yee who cares about data-mining MMOG players?

The reason I found this interesting is because of the benefits the project gives to massive game designers. By participating in the survey, gamers clue designers into what we find most important in online massive games. For those folks who are into raiding, the difficulties in running a raid [nickyee.com], pinned down and categorized, should allow future and current games to provide tools for raid organization. The social ramifications [nickyee.com] of bringing together such disperate people of class, race, and gender is fascinating to look at, too. I personally got a kick out of specific raid stories [nickyee.com], regardless of their success or failure. The quantification of common experiences amongst gamers makes for good reading, sez I.

Tia?
