The Top10casinos website calculated the top 10 most charismatic characters in video games through a recent study. Among them, Captain Price topped the list. Captain Price is a popular character in the Call of Duty series and has appeared in multiple series of games.
The study used what the Top10casinos website calls the “golden ratio,” a calculation that predicts the perceived attractiveness of an input object. The Top10casinos website generated a master seed list from GameRadar’s 50 most iconic game characters of all time, and selected characters with computer-generated human faces (excluding animals and anime), characters such as Halo’s Master Chief He was excluded from wearing a helmet all the time.
The study then used computer vision algorithms to approximate the geometric golden ratio of each character’s face, taken from Google images with clear backgrounds and no facial expressions. The higher the golden ratio score, the more attractive the face.
The specific list of the top 10 is as follows:
- John Price, Call of Duty – 88.90%
- Geralt, The Witcher – 86.99%
- Mass Effect Shepard (male) – 86.79%
- Nick Berwick, GTA – 86.04%
- Max Payne Max Payne – 84.19%
- Assassin’s Creed Cassandra (female) -84.00%
- Assassin’s Creed Ezio – 83.53%
- The Hitman 47-82.26%
- Isaac Clark, Dead Space – 81.48%
- Splinter Cell Sam Fisher – 81.11%
