My Gaming Personality

Cute time-wasting quiz of the day: Gamer Motivation Profile

My results:
* Action 54%
* Social 26%
* Mastery 66%
* Achievement 3%
* Creativity 26%
* Immersion 59%

There's some cute breakdowns into subcategories in the full analysis, which is too long to bother posting, but—for instance, "mastery" is broken down into both "strategy" (do you like games which involve lots of thinking, resource management, planning, etc) and "challenge" (do you play on the hardest mode possible all day erryday); unsurprisingly I ranked way high in strategy but rather lower in challenge :P

I truly give zero fucks about 100%ing games, maxing out all the things, etc, hence my hilariously low rating in "achievement."

I have a feeling I can guess the prospective results for at least some of my flist here :P

Pretty similar, though I lol'd at the last bit saying 'Gaming Style: Aggressive, Relaxed'. I get the feeling that part was geared to someone who played MMO's or PVP games more.

This is, like, the complete opposite of my results.

Clearly I have to do this.

My gaming style: Calm, Proficient, Driven, Independent, Story-Focused, and Practical
and.... yep.

My results are hilarious:
Action 19%
Social 8%
Mastery 93%
Achievement 71%
Creativity 13%
Immersion 46%

In short, I'm a perfectionist. And because you mentioned mastery, I have to break it down:
strategy 94%
challenge 83%

My "immersion" score is also interesting. I scored super-low on fantasy (ie, wanting to be in a different world) but insanely high on story. "Gamers who score high on Story want games with elaborate campaign storylines and a cast of multidimensional characters with interesting backstories and personalities." NO KIDDING.

Basically, we'll never play games together.
