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 enjoy dominating an online game as much as the next player (maybe a little more), but it's tempered by a love of what the rest of the game has to offer, like the campaign and the story. When you need a breather from an intense multiplayer brawl, you'll gravitate toward the more chill aspects of the game.
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've got a healthy friendslist and you're all about the shared experience. While you appreciate what solo games have to offer, playing with others is just... better! Whether you're trying to compete in a few online matches or shooting the breeze with some friends, it's a party either way and you're sending the invites.
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.

Difficult
You love a lot about playing games, but being crushed by overwhelming odds is not one of them. You have zero qualms about choosing an easier game if it means you'll enjoy all the beautiful things about a game's world and story a little bit more.
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.

Experimental
You hunt down games that put creative control squarely in your hands, and you're always ready to get your hands dirty. Creating your own objectives and finding your own adventures is nonnegotiable. If a game has a main storyline, that’s merely background music while you march along to your own beat.
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.

Spontaneous
You're a person of action. A gunslinger. Unafraid to jump into the fray. You'd rather rely on quick instincts and quicker hands than a half–baked plan. You think Luke would have blown up the Death Star by planning harder? Nope. Sometimes you gotta trust your gut and hope physics makes your proton torpedoes turn 90 degrees into the main exhaust shaft.
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
Inventive gameplay mechanics can bring your experience to the next level, but you play games almost exclusively for their story. Regardless of whether that story is given to you or created by you, you find a well–crafted narrative to be a deeply enriching and rewarding journey.
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.

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.
