Unexpected results from "What kind of gamer are you?"

[PurePareidolia]

Grouper....despite being primarily a single player person.
I have absolutely no idea how, though many of the answers were only because I was trying to vaguely approximate my actual feelings on the matter when none of the options were actually appropriate.

 

[Valksy]

Mine came up explorer which I considered BS. I just want to kill things, don't need a story. Kill it, kill it again. Grrrr.

Kept taking it until I got the answer I wanted.

 

[The DSM]

I got what I think I am The Tactician.

Seems about right, set it as one of my new display badges.

 

[NeutralDrow]

I got Explorer, which made perfect sense to me.

Hell, the first time I got my Invisibility power in City of Heroes, I took the chance to explore as many high-level zones as they'd let me into.

EDIT: Oh, wait, is there a new test?

 

[Ironic Pirate]

Dead eye.

Not sure what I was expecting really.

 

[HotFezz8]

i got jack of all trades... which is weird because other than a half dozen i play incessantly i generally don't go more than a dozen levels into a game before deciding if it is any good or not...

and i hate certian types of games; racers, jrpgs, fighters

 

[CloggedDonkey]

I got: The Dead-Eye & The Grouper

You want to shoot things. Zombies, Nazis, targets, aliens ... makes no difference to you, so long as you get to fire a weapon.

Fits me I guess, as I'm a big fan of shooters and enjoy multiplayer, at least sometimes.

 

[masqueblanc]

Can somebody throw out a link to this quiz? I'm curious now. Thanks

EDIT: OK, I engaged my single brain cell and used the search bar. I got 'Dead Eye' which seems a little unlikely since I spent the first four hours of my first FPS trying to stealth my way out instead, and haven't changed much... Gotta say I'm not much for the shooting. Might take it again and see what happens.

 

[05mirober]

i got explorer...but i doubt guitar hero really has a place in this

either way though, the games i do play all have an element of exploring.

i guess making a quiz is probably tricky

 

[Chunko]

I got explorer, which makes no sense because I hate sandboxes.

 

[The Last Nomad]

I got Red-Dead first, or was it Red-Eye? Something like that, but it said I just loved to shoot things. And I felt that was wrong, so I tried the quiz again... Just in case I miss-clicked something or missed an answer somewhere. The only answer I think I changed was Niko Bellic to Nathan Drake, in the which character do you most relate to. I picked Niko the first time because he is the character I have become most attached to in any videogame in the last year or 2. But The question was RELATE TO, and for me thats probably more Nathan, I do love adventure and south america and treasure hunter is certainly on my list of top jobs ever. Anyway, the second time I got explorer. I think that suits me right down to the ground. In every game I play, I try as hard as I can to see everything there is to see.

 

[HK_01]

At first I got "Grouper". The thing is, I hardly ever play multiplayer...

 

[Redingold]

I got "The Pretentionist. You only play really Important games."

I'm not really sure what that means. I play all sorts of games, not just "important" ones. What the hell does that mean, anyway? Best selling? Highest quality? Most artsy?

 

[NeutralDrow]

Huh. Okay, never mind, I got Pony Lover.

...what does that mean, exactly?

 

[Rakkana]

I got Tinker. Didn't surprise me much since one of my hopeful career paths is making games.

 

[TheDoctor455]

I got explorer.
At first it did not seem like me but when I thought about it I do try everything possible in a game.

Yeah... me too...
I guess I never thought about it before, but whenever a game gives me the option to look around and do whatever I want... I'll tend to do that for a bit as long as I think there's some kind of incentive to do so.

 

[Chunko]

I retook it and got

[br] The Tinker [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/quizzes/result/83.54-The+Tinker] [br] Take this quiz [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/quizzes/view/83]

Makes more sense as I'm a game designer but still a little inaccurate as I'm a console gamer. Is this randomly generated?

 

[Swarley]

I got the groper... er grouper.

 

[FretfulGnome]

I got the grouper too, which, like most everyone else that got grouper is completely not me. I redid it and got the explorer which is more my style. I like to explore, even in really linear games I find myself exploring every nook and cranny.
