Take this Quiz to Discover What Kind of Gamer You Are!

[garlicncow]

This is an extremely strick quiz with so many answer that I couldn't answer properly. Not 1 question had anything to do with anime or JRPGs and were about the more popular stuff I avoid like a vampire to garlic. I call Foul and would like to see a new one be made with a broader selection of options that makes it more accurate instead of the way it is. Here are the questions that I couldn't even give a real answer to,

Which videogame character do you relate to? How do I answer this with no JRPG or even a broader selection that revolves around the games I play more often? Why no Ratchet or Squall or even Link?

What kind of books do you like to read? I mainly read manga and comic and it wasn't listed here so that's a bit unfair.

What do you do when a game is released with a content editor? Why isn't there a play the game first to see how the stuff is done and then play with the editor? That's what I do.

Do you pre-order blockbuster games? Why no pre-order a select few?

Which game could you play over and over again? I don't even like any of these games so how do I answer this one?

What sort of challenge would you prefer? I don't like any of these and wouldn't try any of these so why such a small selection? Why not something like building models?

Also even though I got that pony one I'm not angry about that. I'm angry about how narrow the quiz is. I can't do anything about it but complain, which is what I'm doing and I'm also venting at the same time. I may be a minority in the gaming world but this quiz still should have been broader.

As a gamer I'm the obsessive loner. A gamer who plays solo games with long play time and an engauging story (mainly JRPGs) who dabbles in all genres but isn't a master in any one particular one and loves old school games, especially 8-Bit. Also I play an average of 8-16 hours a day, depending on what I got to do and if I really get sucked into the one game or just want to clear it on the day I bought it and return it to the shop the same or next day. Pweh! Ok now that I vented I like the idea of the quiz but it's poorly executed. Maybe when a proper one comes out with a broader set of options comes out I may actually get a realist result instead of an inaccurate one based on a narrow selection. Now back to 8-Bit Final Fantasy!

Quote for FUCKING truth.

Sorta accurate... I don't blatantly disregard the story if it is compelling enough, although I am a self-described explore whore. I prefer the term, as the Dragon Age achievement put it, "easily side-tracked".

#14 What Game Could I Play Over And Over?


The hell if I know, I have never played any of those given in the question, NONE of them spark my interest.

EDIT: I also don't play racing games, they bore me, so I can't rightly say what one is my favourite.

[GLo Jones]

I love the amount of people raging, or in obsessive denial of their results. It's there for fun!

Who cares if it doesn't have the exact options to suit you, it's there for a laugh, not a psychological profile!

P.S. I was the Tactician.

Seconded, I play games by myself, ignore multiplayer unless I can play with an actual PHYSICAL FRIEND, and mostly go for games with a story.

The quiz only decides that based on 1 or 2 questions...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seconded. Because, I mean, downloading a few mods every now and then when I can pry myself away from a good RPG makes me a dedicated modder. (Hell, the only game I ever knew how to mod was KOTOR, and that was because the tools were so dumbbed down they practically did all the work for you.)

[MrSnugglesworth]

Jack of all Games?


I guess, I mean, I have gamefly and if a game doesn't interest me in about 30 minutes, I send it back for a different one.


Eh, its how I roll.

But if I get around 6 hours into a game, I'll most likely finish it.

Only exception was Fallout 3. I just got so damn annoyed with the AI, the Interface, and the retarded story. and the shooting wasn't all that great.

funny since i said the story is the most important part of the game for me pfff

 

[Guitar Gamer]

I got the Grouper. It doesn't quite seem me though, seeing as I answered a lot as the sort of "games are art!" guy.

I got the same, but I am just as happy playing a GOOD single player game as a GOOD multiplayer game

 

[crudus]

I got the Tactician. I would agree to that. I am always thinking through was to be quit powerful in games. Though that only counts for RPGs.

 

[Adventurer2626]

...I got Pony Lover? WTF I didn't think I was that much of a care bear I should have gotten tactician or explorer. Oh well it was a fun 40 seconds.

Edit: I just got a badge...I shall wear my mantle of shame.

 

[Belzera]

Hmm yeah... I don't think this quiz is truely accurate

Pretentionist.... I don't play indie games...
Pony Lover.... I don't care about graphics...
Explorer.... story is the most important thing to me... Don't get me wrong, I love exploring but I do the story first.

You want to play L4D with your mates?
If you had said any other 1st person shooter with co-op then my answer wouldn't always be "L4D isn't my type of game" I'm not a fan of survival horror style games.

You can have one of these games, but only one. (Assume you have the platform to play it on.) Which one do you choose?
Kinda of a narrow selection of game genres. I would always choose RPG over any of these games.

Games I could play over and over?
Plants V Zombies, GTA IV, Heavy Rain, Katamari Damacy? Not enough options really and selecting PvZ or Katamari seems to make it highly likely you'll get pretentionist

Do you skip through cutscenes?
Why no "Only If I've seen it before / If I've seen it recently"

Which character do you relate to?
I really don't think there are enough options here, I really don't relate to any of them.
