Id like to propose a psychological experiment to find out what personality types are drawn to which empires, and if theres a direct correlation to these personality types based on certain aspects of each empire.
Im not sure if anybody would be interested in doing this but I think it might actually be kindve interesting if people will participate. It will only take a few minutes to do.. I realize alot of people wont participate in this experiment and thats fine too but if we can get enough people it may tell us about what the draw is of certain empires and also people can learn what personality type they are which is always interesting. I know this is just a game, but lets face it, were all bored or we wouldnt be on a forum talking about a game that hasnt released yet lol. So i figured why not? Since ive been kindve wondering about this since i found out about this game. Im not a psyche student or anything, just have an interest in this kindve stuff and thought it might make for some interesting conversation if nothing else. Also if any psychologists/psychiatrists/ psyche students etc are lurking on the forums and wanna give input on the experiment then feel free to hop in.
The way this experiment will work is as follows.
Step 1: take the test here which will give you your personality typehttp://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp
Step 2: List your personality type and a brief description of it the test gives info on this you can copy and paste (IE: mine is INFJ)
Step 3: List what empire you chose and specifically why you chose it. (IE: Lore, the colors, your friends were there, Weapons and vehicles, etc)
Once this thread has ran for about a week or so ill try to add up all the data and give percentages of everything as the "final" result
Like i say this is just something to kill some time and might be kindve interesting to find out, as long as the mods of the forum dont start thinking im working for some game marketing company doing research or something and close it down
This is my example response to give you a format to follow
My personality type : INFJ (Description

My empire and reason i chose it: I chose VS because i was drawn to the energy weapons and futuristic themed vehicles.
