Does this graph mean what it is supposed to mean for the joke to work? The black line means I learn much quicker with less time investment, i.e. it is easier than all the others.
No it means that it requires much more skill earlier in the progression.
That is a common misunderstanding of how learning curves work. A steep learning curve means your skill increases more rapidly with the invested time. That means the subject is easier or more intuitive.
It is clearly meant to be graphing the difficulty of the game VS time played. The graph means what the author designed it to mean.
'If you change the axis then it makes sense' is not a great argument 🙂 but it does not matter, it is just a joke after all, so let's not argue. Have a nice day y'all!
Huh? I thought the original chart means I get more gaming skill from playing EVE than from playing WoW - which totally makes sense
You nearly had it. The black line starts higher at "gaining skill" so it requires more skill to start learning but after short time you are gaining much more skill in the same time.
It says "gaming skill", not "gaining skill". Whoever edited it forgot to edit that and "time playing".
Damn cant read, thanks
