I don't find this too surprising. I think the majority of gamers are people, and people tend to do altruistic things in crisis situations, for the most part. It's a testament to how real the game feels, I'd say.

I always think I'm going to play an evil badass in games that have those types of choices -- but then I never do and wimp out.

8-Bit Jay4289d ago

I do the same thing, Sadie. Happened to me in Fallout 3 and New Vegas. I wanted to be some mean mofo, and ended up being the kind-hearted hero of the wastelands.

barefootgamer4289d ago

I usually wind up somewhere in the middle. I don't mind choosing "bad" options for smaller decisions (pimp-slapping reporters, for instance), but when it comes time to save the galaxy I'm Pollyanna in combat armor.

LouisGarcia4289d ago

It's almost impossible for me to be evil. In Knights of the Old Republic I remember reloading saves if I accidentally received Sith points...

MysticStrummer4289d ago

I'm really enjoying these games, but I'm not sure how accurate these statistics are. With both episodes the results at the end showed that I made choices I didn't make.

LUCKYXS7LEVEN4289d ago

not me i'm just living a lone wolf style of storyline

deantak4289d ago

Being bad just isn't that fun, after a while.

NagaSotuva4289d ago

I gave an energy bar to a walker. Felt great.

Game never had plat no surprise

NukaCola3509d ago

Season 1 has a platinum trophy. I have it. 500 Days didn't though.

Jaqen_Hghar3508d ago

still sucks though. Couldn't be any easier than season 1 so no reason not to

Jaqen_Hghar3508d ago (Edited 3508d ago )

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Well guess a man will only get for Ps4 now (was going to get for both and plat both so now dev will get less support). Honestly why not have a plat? Your first game had one and it was impossible to miss so it can't be any easier. The Wolf among us for both then and TWD season 1 PS4. Well that's still 3 platinums to add to a man's collection. A man still supports the dev but this makes zero sense. Hopefully BF gets them both down to $20 or lower.

To be clear a man doesn't base any purchases on trophies. A man was going to wait for the PS4 versions of all the games regardless but was going to get the PS3 version as well before re-selling it just to get the plat for little to no cost (after resale cost was subtracted). A man only bothers to platinum a game if he likes it and never does annoying trophies like Resistance 2 10,000 kills despite that being the only one that he didn't have because if they're not fun why go for em?

Didn't have it on PS3 either. Don't know why, but yea.

Papafynn3508d ago

Dear Game Developers,

Platinum Trophies sells games. Gamers check trophy Lists before they buy a game. An easy or "Onlineless" trophy list could be the tiebreaker if they can afford only one game. Trust me it does. Doesn't make much sense but well.....it's gamers of today. They need to be rewarded. Be it a 100 "Like" on their selfies, 100 "retweets" or 100 other gamers watching them play a game on Twitch.

Give them their Platinum Trophies.

sloth33953508d ago

real gamers don't care about trophies only these fake gamers do. a real gamer plays a game for fun not to get trophies

Theangrybogan3508d ago

But what does a true Scotsman do?

kreate3508d ago (Edited 3508d ago )

It's always nice to have trophies. Especially the platinum.

Wish starcraft had trophies and be released on ps4 or x1. I'll play it all day everyday.

Ratty3508d ago

You can care a little, not at all or a lot about trophies and it doesn't affect your status as a gamer at all.

Some people enjoy hunting for trophies. You don't. That doesn't make you better than them nor does hunting for trophies make them better than you. So please ;p

CaptainObvious8783508d ago (Edited 3508d ago )

There's been many a game I've been on the fence about, about because of their stupid online trophies or lack of platinum trophy I haven't bothered.

Dark_Overlord3508d ago

Same here, I avoid near enough every game with ridiculous online trophies.

levian3507d ago

You guys know a game can be fun regardless of whether it's trophies are difficult to get, right? Just because you can't get them all the way you like to play doesn't mean it's not worthy of purchase.

ginganinja3508d ago

I was under the impression it was Sony that determined whether a game could include a platinum trophy.

A true scots man tries to get every platinum that he can get and I know..because I am one!.
