"League of Legends" developer has come up with a survey to be more engaged in knowing their community very well. This survey will evaluate players and also enables them to report other players for narcissism and other violent tendencies.
Currently, "League of Legends" has about 67 million players making it a big challenge for the developer to observe the community. The developer always involved himself with how the players tend to interact with the game, therefore, they decided to include a survey.
The"League of Legends" gamers will have to undertake a survey and play 50 matches. They can then later change their name into something that follows the rules. Unlike before, the cheekily-named users got a temporary name before picking a better one.
According to Motherboard, the questions are directly lifted from the 40-item-forced choice version of Narcissistic Personality Inventory (NPI) created by Robert Raskin and Howard Terry. The test was based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders' (DSM) criteria for NPI.
Players have shown different attitudes and opinions towards the survey. One said that the survey seems to be a gross-over step from Riot Games and the developer ought to have consulted with a third party before including the survey, Gamasutra reported.
The "League of Legends" spokesman Jeffrey "Lyte" Lin had responded in a statement provided by Riot Games that the survey will help "League of Legends" players think about their behavior. This survey will also be beneficial to the entire community of the "League of Legends."
