High School Gaming Preferences Revealed
A recent high school yearbook survey has sparked discussions due to its unexpected results regarding student gaming preferences.
While Fortnite remains a dominant favorite among the students, with a whopping 75% of the vote, the inclusion of Baldur’s Gate 3, receiving a mere 5%, has raised eyebrows. The survey’s results were shared on Reddit, leading to speculation about the number of students surveyed and the potential reasons behind the low percentage for Baldur’s Gate 3. Redditors guessed that the survey might have had a small respondent pool, possibly between 20-40 students, which could skew the results.
Age demographics play a significant role in gaming preferences. Previous studies have shown that Fortnite and Roblox have a predominantly young user base. However, the mature themes present in Baldur’s Gate 3 might not align with the interests of high school students, which could explain its lower popularity in the survey. Despite this, the game has been successful enough to prompt discussions of an animated adaptation.
The yearbook’s game preference breakdown was as follows: Fortnite (75%), Roblox (10%), Minecraft (10%), and Baldur’s Gate 3 (5%). This distribution highlights the varying interests of the student body and the influence of age-appropriate content on their choices.

Survey Reveals Student Gaming Preferences
A recent discussion on Reddit has brought attention to a survey of high school seniors’ favorite games, revealing a preference for Fortnite, Roblox, and Minecraft.
While the survey’s sample size is unclear, with estimates ranging from 20 to 40 students, the results show a significant lean towards Fortnite, with 15 out of 20 students favoring it, if the lower estimate is accurate. The survey also highlights the presence of Baldur’s Gate 3, despite its mature themes, which may not resonate as strongly with this younger demographic. The popularity of Gen Z-themed Baldur’s Gate mods, however, suggests a potential to attract younger players. The survey’s findings align with current gaming trends among teens, with a significant portion of Minecraft players falling within the 15 to 21 age bracket. Despite the success of Baldur’s Gate 3 in sales, its impact on the surveyed group was minimal.
