As a future game's industry worker, this talk is highly uplifting.

I am interested in how the data would change if they chose different bins/buckets that what they showed. Such as in the "Crunch" section. Instead of using 25%, 50%, 25%, what would 33%, 33%, 33% look like??? Needless to say, the people parsing the data will understand it with all of it's caveats and intricacies way better than the rest of us. and presenting all of those details would make a 10 hour long presentation. Very interesting overall though. I'm glad people are doing research like this. We need to get people interested from Game Makers Toolkit and Extra Credits in here to watch this. That way we can expand the knowledge to more people.

Valid proper methodology in game study field? Am I dreaming?

If a project delay somehow avoided influencing your ROI, Critical Acclaim or personal satisfaction than it wouldn't be a problem. I don''t think it should be a considered part of aggregate outcome, merely something that's very likely to affect the other three aspects.
