if there is something that i love about bioware is that they give to us the almost nonexistent female gamers (sarcasm) the option to play like female protagonist and Hale to me did a exceptional work like femshep.

My only real fear with these stats is that the Soldier class was the most picked. REALLY?

I spend my days defending Mass Effect 3's RPG elements, classes, and customization. I try to convince people that a majority of people DON'T want a generic shooter experience. Then I come to find out that over half of the players in the data play as a soldier...the most barebones, stripped of anything truly RPG, class in the whole series.

Wouldn't people rather blow stuff up as a biotic, ramming into people over long distances? Wouldn't they want to sit back, eat popcorn, and watch as their drones terrorize the battlefield? Nope, we just want to shoot things >_____>

Er..Me3 is an IMPROVEMENT.

In Me2, bioware stated that soldiers were the most popular choice 65% of the time.

Going from 65 to 50 is a hell of a jump....and I'm skeptical that ME1 was any different than Me2 in that regard...Again, BSN will give you a warped view of what was popular classes...


re: insanity
This is the same thing with insanity...given that only 4% of the general audience actually finished the game on insanity, I'm thinking that the game wasn't too easy for most people.

Again, the fact that many of the people that say "insanity is too easy" can also solo gold on the MP side, then yeah, I'm not sure we should bother with their opinion...

50% means Soldier is still far and away the most used class. 50%, whereas 5 other classes need to butt heads to reach that 50%. So yes, it's an improvement, but it still hurts.

Also Soldier only has ammo powers, and a power that makes aiming easier. Aside from bonus powers that's it. The only advantage to Soldier in ME3 is being able to use any OP gun at free will. And ME3 has a LOT of guns..

ME3 is an amazing game, despite BSN's claims. It's a shame that 50% of the people in the stats can't experience it to the fullest.

Then again the data is very loose. I doubt it accounts for every one who played ME ever, nor does it count the dozens of playthroughs people have claimed to have done in the Trilogy.

I wonder if the percentage was taken just from ME3 or all the games across the board? If it was all from ME3, maybe FemShep's romance options played a part in it. Jacob cheats, Thane dies, and you only have Garrus left if he's not dead.
You have Samantha if your Femshep is into girls. Not a lot of room for different outcomes. So, maybe there are lots of femshep players out there, but once word got around how different romances played out, go discouraged from using her? I know I fall into this boat. I had 2 broSheps and 2 Femsheps. I imported my guys, but only one of my girls because of the romance factor. Thane died on me ;__;

It was taken only from ME3. If you look it says of those players that finished ME3.

Weren't playable Dwarves and Elves scrapped in DA2 because 80% of the player base were Human? 78% of ME's player base are Male Shepard.

Not taking sides, just food for thought.

Even if the male character is considered "default," having the choice is empowering on its own.

18% might statistically be a minority but in practice that could mean hundreds of thousands of players or more.

It's like some people don't get it. If developers start excluding options based on their smaller popularity, guess what, you will one day find out that YOUR favorite options/class/feature got removed. So sure, go ahead, complain about wasting resources in a game that (at least is suppoused to be) an RPG. Just don't cry when your favorite stuff that just so happen to be in the minority gets scrapped.

They might as well just remove every class other than Soldier. And kill off the VS because no one takes them as squadmates. And remove renegade options.

**** it. Sound is a waste of resources. Half the game is in space anyway.

The fact that Bioware made 2 exclusive gay romances pretty much affirms that they don't let the majority sway what they decide to pour resources into.

Tali is only a squadmate because patrick weekes wanted her in. I don;t know what you mean with the rest of them.

Tali was a squadmate because of fan demand, was said on the ME3 App.

Liara cause she's blue.

Garrus. Popularity. It's the way things work and I understands eet.

Femshep is very well done, the numbers would have been higher if we could start a ng+ with everything the same but allowing us to switch gender. Yup thats right just make every possible LI into a bi
Perhaps we need to organize a weekend event where everyone pledges to do their next playthrough as femshep.

I'm sure popularity played a role but Liara was important to the plot because she was the only squadmate who couldn't be dead by the third game..

I only play femshep.

I played broshep maybe twice.


I find Jennifer Hale's voice acting to be superior and very enjoyable.
