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 love playing games for the fun of it and rarely engage in the more adrenaline pumping aspects. The gameplay, the story, the people you're playing with—that's what it's all about for you. If a game doesn't make you happy, then what's the point? If you're having a good time, then you're doing it right.
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
Game time is your time. You like your friends well enough, but you see games as a personal experience. You will not negotiate otherwise. All you want to do after a long day is shut the door, mute your phone, and fire up your favorite single–player game. This is your happy place.
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 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.

You enjoy the chaos of the battlefield. Shoot first, ask questions later. Maybe you strategize your moves on the field, but you rely more on your instincts when push comes to shove. You aren’t the one waiting for the door to be kicked in—you’re the one kicking down doors.
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.

Fast
You tend to drift toward games with a slower pace, like sprawling open world games or smaller simulations. You play those fast–paced shooters and platformers occasionally, but there's a special place in your heart for games that let you savor the moment.
