...except not at all. I enjoy multiplayer every now and then, but single's where it's at.

 

[Random Argument Man]

I'm an explorer, but I also love a good story.

Come my friends! Let's go on an adventure!

 

[edthehyena]

I feel like The Grouper doesn't fit me well because I tend away from multiplayer. Even in an MMO I usually end up doing a lot more solo stuff.

Then I realized that the games I've always enjoyed the most were multiplayer. New Super Mario Bros. Wii with 3 friends, TF2, and I get the feeling I'd love Borderlands if I had 3 friends to reliably play it with.

I do kinda wish we could have seen percentages for each type, because nobody is really going to be just one.

No idea how I got the Explorer. Sure, I'll wander around, but open worlds aren't really my favorite thing. And even when I play them, I still emphasize the main storyline. Oh well.

I am so sick of gritty storylines, drab colors, and realism.

Probably explains why I like FF13 infinitely more than Mass Effect 2...And why Bayonetta is my GOTY.

But for some reason, I hate Mario games...Huh.

"Pony-Lover" Nooooo! My cover is blown!

 

[McHeath]

The dead-eye? I rarely even play fps or any shooters.

 

[Chrysocollus]

The...Pretentionist?

...

._.;

The Best of the Best apparently.
Not sure how that worked

not bad, but I honestly felt like a few questions just didn't have an answer for me. I like games with story, but I prefer games that are simply fun and that have good game design. Quite a few questions left me feeling "Meh...close enough".

 

[sgtshock]

First time I got explorer. Decent enough, I love games where you can explore (Morrowind, Fallout 3 and the like). Second time I got grouper. Also fair; I like a good single player game, but it's hard to beat a game of Left 4 Dead 2 with friends, or strangers who quickly become friends.

Grouper? Hmm. I wouldn't exactly call that "precise", some options were picked by me only because they were closest to the truth. I'm not really a people's person both in real-life and in games. But on the other hand, i do love me some multiplayer on a pretty regular basis (oh my, the grammatic structure of this sentence is atrocious). And i do like the badge... i think i'll keep it.

 

[Deadlock Radium]

I had some difficulties with some questions because I was right in between alternatives, the first time I got the Grouper and after that the Tactician.
I'm a Grouper Tactician.

 

[latenightapplepie]

The Dead-Eye. Ha. Fair enough. It's not....inaccurate. In fact, it's probably the most accurate of all of them.

 

[Marik2]

Hmmmmmmmmmmm I think this quiz needs some more tuning.

This quiz sucks monkey balls.

About 90% of the questions didn't have answers that I would like to take.

I agree, the quiz apparently had no right answers, but most of questions were a multiple choice of all wrong answers.

For example, I've never played Halo, Braid, Mario or Uncharted (or know anything about their protagonists), but I certainly don't relate to Niko Bellic.

I was surprised Science Fiction was absent from the book genres... apparently the closest choice to the Warhammer 40K books I'm reading at the moment is Harry fucking Potter... so I went for "With so many great irrelevant books, who can choose?".

Also, the question about preordering.... I'll preorder a game if it interests me (and if there are incentives and savings to be gained by preordering), but I won't blindly preorder a game just because it's a blockbuster and my inflated sense of entitlement requires me to have it on day one, and I never buy more than one game at a time, but that doesn't mean I'm an idiot anti-capitalist either.

In my experience, personality tests like these and MORI tests are fundementally flawed as they don't have an "none of the above" option, so I put as much stock in these as I do Horoscopes... which is basically what they are, scientific appearing statistics based Horoscopes.

 

[LostTimeLady]

Ok, so apparently I'm "The Pony-Lover & The Pretentionist". Hmmm... I get the feeling that it only came out like this 'cos I answered serveral zombie related questions with things like 'Zombies? gimme a break' and 'I don't play L4D'. Y'know, just 'cos people like good story telling and arty design in a game and don't play L4D doesn't make 'em ONLY into the complete oposite.
Do I sound cross?
I know I play games like Final Fantasy and Zelda but at the same time I like Guitar Hero, Racing games, Prince of Persia, Indiana Jones games, Rome: Total War and Sim City. See, a pretty rounded mix, I'd say. I think my problem was that this quiz was a little to geared to the male brain (Out of a list of MALE protagonists, I'm not sure I really relate to any of them!).
I think I'm going to try this quiz again...

Edit: this time it came out as: "The Pretentionist & The Tinker". Hmmm...

"You want to shoot things. Zombies, Nazis, targets, aliens ... makes no difference to you, so long as you get to fire a weapon."
It's like you can read my mind! I hate personality tests but this one was fun enough. Good work.

 

[silasbufu]

The Dead-Eye. You want to shoot things. Zombies, Nazis, targets, aliens ... makes no difference to you, so long as you get to fire a weapon.
That's actually not true at all...eh.
