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.
Approaching Challenger
You love the competitive nature of video games. When you come home after a long day, nothing hits the spot quite like a death match. You'll still dabble in the campaign, but your eye is always drawn to that multiplayer option on the main menu.
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.
Freelancer
You prefer flying solo in games, but you have nothing against some good multiplayer action. If your friends want to pull you away from wandering in Breath of the Wild, you may hesitate for a second, but you'll happily jump on with them. Ganon can wait a little longer.
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.
Case Cracker
You enjoy the lighter, more relaxing aspects of a game, but you want them to push you a little bit. It’s not worth throwing your controller over, but when faced with a challenge, you crack the smallest of smiles and get to work.
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.
Main Liner
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.
Feint–Hearted
You like to strategize and plan ahead almost as much as you love to dive in and think on your feet. Races are won on the racetrack, not in the conference room. So while there is definitely a plan of action in your head, you trust your instincts to guide you once the boots are on the ground.
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.
Haptician
You're mechanically driven with a strong attachment to the emotional side of games. But as much as a good story warms your heart, it's functionality that really hits that sweet spot. You get swept away by the feeling of hitting that perfect combo, a mesmerizing simulation experience, and the way Master Chief whacks someone with the butt of his gun in CE. Pure bliss.
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.
Cruise Controller
You enjoy a balance between games that allow you to relish the moment and those that push your quick decision–making skills to the limit. Some days are for lazy rivers and a piña colada, and others are for white water rapids and a rocket launcher on each shoulder. It's all good to you and you wouldn't have it any other way.
