Kind of odd that I got a 39% on Story when story is probably THE biggest motivator for me by far. Especially since the description states "Gamers who score low on Story tend to find dialogue and quest descriptions to be distracting and skip through them if possible." which is pretty much exactly the opposite of me. xD Some question in there must've been really screwed the score up.

Are you interested in the lore/plot/narrative but much less interested in the characters/character development?

Very fun survey, thanks. I already play/played a lot of the titles they recommended, but it was cool to see it all laid out like that. I am the anti-GOGOGO.

Didn't really work for me. For example I only got 43% in challenge and they even mention Dark Souls which I absolutely love. Just because I don't care at all about putting difficulty sliders all the way up so I take more flat damage and do less flat damage doesn't mean I don't love me some challenging games like DS! Also putting discovery under creativity is probably not the best of ideas.

Fascinating site itself, and it's data. Hmmm...

ADDED: Was skeptical as these surveys usually don't fit me -- this is almost mind reading. =

Your Gaming Style : Calm, Analytical, Relaxed, Independent, Deeply Immersed, and Creative

The Action Components (7%)
Destruction (25%) (even got Battlefield right -- rented the server to play the Metro map exclusively. )
Excitement (3%)

The Mastery Components (70%)
Challenge (28%)
Strategy (94%) (I'm a planner and prefer strategy games almost to a fault. I study maps!)

The Achievement Components (20%)
Completion (58%)
Power (7%)

The Social Components (20%)
Competition (11%)
Community (44%)

The Immersion Components (86%)
Fantasy (78%) (RPG rules)
Story (86%) (RPG rules)

The Creativity Components (85%)
Discovery (58%) (Will adventure, but only after making sure my character is "looking good"!)
Design (91%) (You bet I'm independent!)

I would have thought I'd score much higher on Immersion as that's very important to me, but everything else seems pretty spot on.

Cool survey, thanks OP!

[ro9ue]

Scored high on everything except Mastery. Seems about right.

I love lore, fun, exploration, creativity, pvp, etc but I rarely ever feel trying to "master" the game is a worthwhile pursuit.

Main story is a lot more important but I definitely enjoy seeing character stories if they're interesting.

That said, I tried the survey again and I think the results this time were a lot closer (story was 66%). Maybe I was just too conservative with my answers the first time through. Or maybe knowing what the possible results could be beforehand this time skewed them, haha.

I like Touhou, complex RTS or simulation games, competitive Pokemon, competitive League, and being the best as I can in the niche that is soloing in WoW. Fits my games more or less well.
