    Hi guys, so let me make this short. I need to do a study about a hobby. So it have been really fun to ask you guys some questions, for i can't ask people in my surrounding about this game (for none plays this game :().

    Only say your age and gender first (only if you want) and write the numbers one after the
    another and answer! This is for school prodject

    So here are the questions:
    1. How long have you played this game?
    2. What lvl is your best character?
    3. What of the four classes is the most fun to play?
    4. Whats the most fun event in DSO?
    5. How many hours do you play a week?
    6. Are you a PvP or PvE player?
    7. What is the biggest reason you play this game? Examples: Grafics, progress (lvl up), community, just fun xD, or what ever you want to tell!

    Thank you for taking time to answer! :D
    (i know it exist question poll here, but i don't know how to do multipule qestions on it so don't judge :confused:)

  2. @emmelive I have removed your question re. how much money the player has spent. For several reasons, the forum is not the place to ask that. It would also be a good idea to clarify why you are asking forum users these questions. e.g. is it just out of curiousity or is it for a school project?

    Building each day you are better than yesterday. Other games that don't have building a character it is only for fun or a score achievement is not as compelling to play. I also use TeamSpeak to talk to others...

    Been playing fantasy games since Dungeons and Dragons pen and paper, well before computers could digitize them. I enjoy the process of leveling toons, making them powerful and learning the intricacies of the game. And, I have way too much free time on my hands so its either DSO or the honey-do list, and DSO seems to win that battle a lot.

    Release 155 destroyed everything that gave me satisfaction, right down to basic graphics quality. MY cost/benefit analysis tells me to quit. I tell myself to use behavior modification to withdraw. I blame the BigPoint upper managers and the company ethos.

    ? - Are you a student, a closet moderator, or just curious?
    Hope you get enough data for valid survey.

    I do this for school (i go in high school, and we just need to do some form of study), and i'm so sorry about that! For others in my class helped me to do some questions as that one. Just added that one for it was a good question, but yeah. Maybe not the best now after i think of it. (sorry for the problem)

    --MERGED--

    xD well that is not planned, want volunteers (for school should not cost you know). Do it for fun, the more that joins the study, the better study it is (and i get better grade ^-^)

    --MERGED--

    You are not to old for this game, don't be shy about it!

    --MERGED--

    I'm a study (high school) and thank you so much for the answers

    --MERGED--

    You "really" answer seriusly :p (but make me smile at least)

    1. I played for about 2 years, but quit almost a year ago.
    2. 37
    3. Ranger
    4. The old Halloween events (2012 and 2013)
    5. None now.. about 20 when I was active
    6. (question purged - but I was strictly a free rider)
    7. PvE only (back when I was playing)
    8. I played when it was fun.. when they killed the fun, I eventually quit (but I hung on through most of 2014, and the fun died around the end of 2013).

    Unasked question: Why are you still here? I only pop in now and then to read the latest forum posts, because many good people are here (members of the community - players - the fools from BigPoint can take a flying leap into Infinity).

    Male, 59.

    1. How long have you played this game?
    -- 8 months

    2. What lvl is your best character?
    -- At time of posting: 49.95.

    3. What of the four classes is the most fun to play?
    -- Only playing ranger. Not really interested in the others. I like range-fighting + melee and strong defenses.

    4. Whats the most fun event in DSO?
    -- I think it's called Shiangra-la.

    5. How many hours do you play a week?
    -- About 20-25 hrs. Hard to say. Sometimes I like to take it easy and just admire my toon. :D

    6. Are you a PvP or PvE player?
    -- PvE only. I avoid PvP to keep the game casual and my ego calm.

    7. What is the biggest reason you play this game?
    -- Graphics and sound effects. They are simply superb. It's the main reason I still play, despite the lag, the rubberbanding, and BP treating its players like so much noise. I also like that there's only one character to develop (ie, only one mouth to feed, as opposed to a battle party, as with most games); and I also enjoy the real-time fighting (I don't like turn-based), especially in the actual areas where you're already questing/farming.

    Male, 26.87 years (and a math lover if you couldn't tell or didn't know)

    1. How long have you played this game?
    3.5 years

    2. What lvl is your best character?
    50

    3. What of the four classes is the most fun to play?
    2H DK

    4. Whats the most fun event in DSO?
    I liked the two Defend events. I miss them and wish that they bring them back and would complete the set.

    5. How many hours do you play a week?
    If I had my way, I'd play about 40+ a week, but with how busy work has been recently, I only get to play about 20-25. (2h a work night and 7-8 on a non work night) The other thing that takes a lot of time is that I spend about an hour or two a night reading every post on the forums.

    6. Are you a PvP or PvE player?
    PvE, all the way. In the past I did PvP so that I could get the skills that helped in PvE, but after the R155 changes, I don't see a reason for PvP anymore

    7. What is the biggest reason you play this game? Examples: Grafics, progress (lvl up), community, just fun xD, or what ever you want to tell!
    It started out because I enjoyed the game play, graphics, style... basically because it was a F2P version of [self edit of a well known game that the mods would edit out anyway [EDIT]] but these days it is because I've spent so much time and effort on the game and my addiction is well rooted. I've quit twice (5 months, and 2 months) but I just couldn't stay away. BP would have to mess up big time (even worse than R155) to drive me away forever it seems.
