RPG Gamer Survey

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I'm doing a Masters' Degree at a University in Portugal which will focus on NPC Social Behavior, and I would like to ask your help to answer a questionnaire.

 

The idea behind my Thesis is to try to improve the Computer RPG experience, that's why I'm asking for your help, because you are the ones that know what should be improved!

 

You can find it on http://freeonlinesurveys.com/rendersurvey....o2arm74s7233913.

 

Thank you for your help, Regards,

Afonso

I'm for real! ;-)

 

I'm really doing a Masters' Degree. The group that I'm in is Inesc-ID, a AI group at my University (IST - TagusPark).

 

I'm also updating a blog with the progression of the project. You can find it on http://oniwaka.blogspot.com.

 

Thanks for all your help people!

 

Hopefully the project from my Thesis will eventually become a game!

 

Regards,

Afonso

I suggest you to change the 'thank you' list (in blog) with adding Obsidian and Digital Reality to it ;) ...oh, nearly forgot: Stormregion too

Nafonso I answered your survey.

 

I suggest you enhance it some to increase the range of allowed answers for all the questions.

 

Also make sure you cover game types like RPG, FPS, RTS, 4X, adventure; real time and turn based and hybrid and so on if you are going to ask what people like - and provide for "other" since you will certainly omit some.

 

You may also want to work a thread on the issues on this and perhaps other forums to help.

As dark is the absence of light, so evil is the absence of good.

If you would destroy evil, do good.

 

Evil cannot be perfected. Thank God.

That was yesterday, before I had this account created. I'll thank all of you in the next post! ;-)

Thanks for your suggestions, but I can't really alter it at this point. It was approved by my coordinator and since I've got already alot of answers it would create a breach between them.

What in earth do you mean by "pro-activeness" in regards to NPCs? :)

 

 

Its like asking if I prefer my NPCs to act unilaterally.

DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself.

 

Important: as the following sentence contains many naughty words I warn you not to read it under any circumstances; botty, knickers, wee, erogenous zone, psychiatrist, clitoris, stockings, bosom, poetry reading, dentist, fellatio and the department of agriculture.

I think it means that the NPCs act on their own accord. Strike up conversations with other NPCs or walk up to you if they have something to say. That sort of thing.

I've submitted my answers now. And I made sure to answer with annoyingly wordy and unnecessary lengthy replies whenever I was given the chance :))

Yes, that's exactly it. For example, NPCs don't just stand around, they decide to go somewhere and do something. And also, it's not to make them always go back and forth repetitively, they should "think for themselves".

I'm getting an Internal Server Error when submitting my survey.

 

Yesterday a problem happened with the Blogger server. After the questionnaire I have to decide where to send the people that submited it. So I decided to submit them to the blog of the project (there are no adds there, not trying to make money! ;-). But yesterday the blogger server had some problem and was giving a 500 code error (Internal Server Error). So this means that you submited the survey ok, and the problem was loading the blog page.
