Profile Details

Each profile type consists of 7 different criteria, each with 2 opposite traits. Everyone is unique and will possess tendencies towards all traits, but will often be more inclined towards one over the other.

In some instances, a player will enjoy both traits equally and be considered balanced on that criterion.

Competitive
This criterion reflects the level of importance that winning is to our enjoyment. Those who simply love the experience of playing are For Fun and those who seek the thrill of winning are For Glory.

For Glory
You tend to have more fun engaging with the low–pressure, low–stakes aspect of the game. You prefer to explore, dive into the story, or just mess around, but, every so often, you'll test your skills in the arena, just to prove that you've got the chops to win.
Players
This criterion demonstrates our preferences for playing with others. Those who enjoy taking in all a game has to offer by themselves are Solo and those who love the experience of interacting with others are Multiplayer.

Multiplayer
You spend the majority of your time and energy in multiplayer games. Even while playing solo, you often wish you had someone else along for the ride. You keep an active friends list and you're always ready to send up the Bat–signal when it's time to play.
Challenge
This criterion underpins our desire for difficulty, or lack thereof. Those who play for the experience, not the frustration, are on the Easy spectrum and those who always take the road least traveled will be on the Hard side.

You enjoy a game no matter the stakes. Sure, it’s thrilling to defuse a bomb while fighting off a hoard of goblins, but you also love making absolutely certain that the popcorn stand isn't too close to the merry–go–round. You'll give both experiences your best shot.
Creativity
This criterion illustrates how we progress. Those who forge ahead with purpose and direction are Practical while those who wander and find their own objective are Experimental.

You’ll dip your toe into everything a game has to offer—all its modes, side quests, and mechanics. But you’d prefer to spend time on the few things you truly care about, like the story, multiplayer mode, or petting your Pigeot over and over again until it beats your friend who clearly had the superior Pokémon.
Strategy
This criterion determines how we approach a situation. Those who carefully gauge the situation before acting are more Planning oriented while those who react and adjust on the fly are more Spontaneous.

You're the on–field battle commander, the quarterback of your team. You have excellent strategic insights and usually know your next move, but you're also adaptable. You’re good at thinking on your feet when the situation calls for it. This makes you an effective and dangerous opponent.
Immersion
This criterion depicts what aspects of a game we are absorbed by most. Those who sink into the feel and flow of the gameplay are Mechanic–focused and those who are swept away by the world and its characters are Story–focused.

Story
For you, it's the literal tactile feel that the gameplay has to offer. Diving into the mechanics. Mastering the crafting system. It's like a physical activity for you.

You are 100% engaged in the way the game is played. You're a crafting legend, a combo connoisseur. You're superb at tapping "A" really, really fast. You live to execute that perfect parry. For you, a game offers so much more than its story, and you can't wait to discover what that is. You're not here to watch—you're here to make stuff happen!

Pace
This criterion shows how we prefer engaging with our games. Those who savor the moment and take their time are on the Slow side and those who want to progress and make decisions are Fast.

For games to provide the ultimate escapism, you want to be engaged at all times. The stakes should be high and the action unrelenting. Long cutscenes can bore you to tears when you're champing at the bit to take on the next boss. Listening to extensive dialogue? Skip. Just point me in the right direction and have my reward ready, sir.
