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 also don't feel I'm the Grouper since I love Single Player Games as well. However I like the picture so I'll ride with it.

Explorer. Not a big surprise though, I do like to run around and find all those nooks and crannies (Hell, I swam the entire northern shore of Kalimdor in my WoW days). Sure it takes me longer to finish games, but at least I get to see how extensive the levels/areas are.

this explains why i never finish oblivion

I got that result and the only reason I haven't completed oblivion is I dont want the 100% completion if i do the last fighters guild quest

 

[icyneesan]

Pony lover? Not like me at all :\

Though I do enjoy games where I can be a little girl... though for a entirely different reason

 

[Fatal-X]

This quiz sucks monkey balls.

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

I was hoping for the Tactician but this describes me as well. I always prefer more grounded series to their fantastical counterparts (except for JRPGs and Tony Hawk games). Bonus for GREAT picture in terms of quality, details, and... umm... bonuses.

I'm the grouper, I LOVE MULTIPLAYER!

 

[Milo Windby]

In my humble opinion this quiz blows.
For those curious, I was "Pony-Lover."

And oh wow, apparently I have a new badge or whatever broadcasting this. Swell.

I know how you feel, I have pony-lover at the bottom of the badge list q_q

I need a dispenser here!!!

On topic: I said I was most like Tim from Braid cause he seems the most human, or an actual human

 

[Sir Bob]

Explorer all the way!

 

[Raikov]

Apparently I'm "The best of the best", and supposedly give a shit about achievements. Total fail =D

I voted him because I am *definitely* not any of the other 4. Process of elimination.

fits like charm

 

[PhiMuLady]

The Jack of all Games

I would have to agree.

 

[britterly]

The fact that you can't take a very light-hearted forum quizz for what it is does make you sound pretentious though.

I was just bothered because I also wanted light-hearted and fun result what every other result seemed to be, that's all. I wanted ponies, not a big snide image with a big snide flavour text and a big snide badge on my Escapist profile saying I'm Pretentious

 

[sniperworm]

I got The Grouper, now if only I had people to group with x.x

 

[ChocoFace]

Explorer.
I don't really get how that can be, although i do love me some sandboxing

 

[Toriver]

Totally agreed here. I notice one particular thing. There seemed to be no reference to RPGs anywhere in the quiz and it was very FPS and RTS-heavy. I'm an RPG fan, and let me tell you, the vast majority of RPGs, even JRPGs, are not "cute and cuddly". I get it, I don't like playing FPS's, but don't imply that I most enjoy "childish" games because of it.

What would be the equivalent?

"Trigger Lover
If you can smell the cordite, you'll play it. And most likely riddle it with rapid fire death!"

Or,

"The Projector
Gruff and manly is the name of the game. A hero is a man of few words - words that burn like the flesh of the guilty!"

Or,

"The Compensator
A headshot might not get you a job or the love of a woman, but you'll act like it does, and anybody that can't best you, may as well eat a bullet."

Well, I was pointing out what many others have articulated much better than I: that for a lot of us, none of the answers available for several questions fit us as gamers, and there was no "none of the above" option. Through my post I was trying to go into more detail to point that out in my specific case. I am sorry if you thought I was being hostile. It's just that when you don't like FPS at all, and when asked "Which do you like best?" and are given 4 FPS and Katamari Damacy, which one are you going to pick? I ended up picking Katamari and the Braid guy because none of the choices fit me and they seemed to be the closest I could get, which was still a long way off. Hell, with the Braid guy's question, I had never even played any of the games listed. I prefer games in the classical fantasy setting or perhaps steampunk, I like story-based games, and I like single-player RPGs. Very few, if any, of the questions had anything at all to do with those options. Also, I'm not a PC gamer, and it seemed this quiz was also mainly geared towards PC gaming. I don't have a PC that can run games well, so I can't mod or anything like that. Apparently this quiz was not meant for gamers like me.
