Guild Wars 2 Census- check it out represent your race!

Still honeymoon period. People will get over it eventually.

I think alot of people have seen what such mage-like classes do in other games. And with Mesmer i just feel like its one massive CC-fest raining down on you and your friends. And such classes have always been very strong.

Atleast, if i had to call 1 class OP based on what little information we have my vote is for Mesmer. Just, a hunch ofcourse, but based on what ive seen i think itll be a very frustrating class to play against.

I find it interesting that of all the race/character gender ratios, Sylvari is the only race with a higher female/male ratio. Considering all the race/player gender ratios are about the same (80% male/20%female/private) that means there is a significant higher amount of guys wanting to play female plants than other female races. You guys are weird.

I assume it has something to do with Sylvari having a somewhat effeminate visual style, and the inadequacy many younger male players would feel by rolling a male character that isn't a big strong tough guy.

+1, sylvaris are meh

ah? that wasn't the point?

[Pushkina]

Wow only 9.9% female player.

[sacrypheyes]

never cared if someone was a girl or not ig, as long as they play well enough, that's all i need to know.

True that.

I'm a 6'5 black man who would feel inadequate playing anything that looks weaker than a Charr.
What are you trying to say, Mif?




(I'm joking about feeling inadequate, in case you weren't aware. My first alt is going to be a female human mesmer. Dealwithit.)

If that's true I'd be scared to pass you on the sidewalk. ._.

Don't worry, I exaggerated.


















I'm only half black.

One in ten gamers being female? I wish that would be the case =)

In my age category it gets better: http://gw2census.com/charts.php?pie=...&divide=gender

12% are female players...

[Marn]

Is there a specific age cut-off where a young adult becomes an adult, or is it more of a maturity/mentality thing that's more of a personal interpretation?

I'd say 25

[sacrypheyes]

i'd say one matures into an adult when he starts taking seriously his mid/long-term future, which imo happens by the time you :
-end your studies
-have your first job (not as in the kind of job you take to get some pocket money but more like to pay for your everyday expenses)
-live by yourself

depending on people, i'd say that happens between 16 and 30.

I chose a Charr Necromancer as I'd be using him for Roleplay.

Totally anecdotal, but in my experience female MMO gamers tend to skew older. I've experienced lots of 25 y.o.+ female gamers, but very few in the 14 y.o. range

Haha, apparently 40% of "noob" players will be playing human thieves. Good to know.

Mesmer, not Thief

Mesmer, not Thief

You are very much in the right my friend. Weird that someone who considers themselves a "noob" would pick the, arguably, most obscure class. Thief somehow made more sense to me, no offense!
