MEA male-to-female player ratio?

#DalinneIsSteveophobic #MakeSteveGreatAgain #SavetheHashtags


On topic: I must first know what you consider male and female Dutch. there is some very confusing interpretations in some parts of the BSN.

But for now, 2559448 male, 1847894 female, 467556 Apache Helicopters And the rest 258765 can get together in the misc group.

this give us: 49,86 % male, 36,00 % female, 9,11 % Apache Helicopters and 5,04 % Misc. this looks fine.

And now:

I'm sure the lack of female presence in marketing-on the cover of the game had a big impact on the lack of female players for ME. I know looking at the game cover or the trilers I wouldn't have ever thought at the time that I could play with a female character. And is why I played ME1 much later, and only because a friend of mine told me about the feature.

But if I remember correctly, the ME3 ratio was only about the Xbox one. The results from the various platforms about the female charactersVSmale character for DAI said that the playstation have a much highter ratio of female characters, and on PC it was almost 50/50. Plus female players is a market that is expanding a lot.

Oh, I'm ready! I'm ready right now!

Little did anyone know that both Scott and Sarah are actually trans.

How else do you explain Scotts terrible "beard" and Sarah being a boobless uggo

lol I was actually anticipating a shit storm in here when I saw the title of the post..mostly funny replies! I think it will be a very close 50/50 split..as someone who did not use a Fem shep in any ME playthrough, I will def be playing as Sis Ryder this time also..but first I'll do Bro Ryder.

Male will be predominant as usual.

I also suspect the stats coming from just the first six months/year or whatever time sample they take from could skew the results too. Because you're gonna get a lot of people who buy the game at or near launch, start it up with the default male soldier, do their one run of the game which they may or may not finish (and isn't there some crazy percentage of people who don't even play past the first hour?), and then never pick it up again. I wonder how different the results would be after two or three years, where you're factoring in people who do multiple playthroughs with both genders.

Also, the gender gap has been closing if you look at the percentages. For Inquisition it was 32/68 if I remember right. Now in 2017 we could see something like 35/65 and 40/60 a couple years from now. And as you say, it's possible more people will play Sara Ryder if they actually see her in the marketing. Because I suspect for those players who go in after seeing just a couple trailers and that one magazine article, they'll go with the familiar character. If they only see Scott they'll pick him, but if they've also seen Sara they might be more open to choosing her.

Now, not saying if you factored all this stuff in you'd get to 50/50 split, but you might see that gap in which gender people choose to play as shrink a bit.

Of course, the OP actually wanted to know if chicks really do play games. But that question is dumb. See my answer (featuring nifty Delorean gif) on the first page. 

Fucking beat me to it.


Thi....


...fourth. Fuck!

Hi, Dutch!

Okay, I need to know what this is about now. Let me in on the injoke secrets!

Are you asking for the gender make-up of the player base? Or how many people will play as broRyder or sisRyder?

I'd say an 80-20 split is probably fairly accurate for the player base, but I imagine the split is 70-30 for broRyder/sisRyder.
