MMO Gamer Psychology / Player Personality Test

Barneylee57 · 2018-05-14T10:11:03.898Z

looks like i have to re-do it… it was something like

Explorer 77
Achiever 52
that other one was about 30 somethning
killer 17

now how does that total up? thats well above 100%

But then to be fair… some questions were actually different from last night (it seems to be slightly random on what is asked) - eg i was asked at the bottome last night… would you rather A lot of gold? (i think) or aspell which can control other players for xx charges… today it was replaced with 2 exp levels - or an amulate which does 10% player dmg i know its only a bit of fun but…

@Barneylee57: from what I saw it totals to 200% so I would expect the missing number to be 54 if you remember the other three correctly

boundmore · 2018-05-14T11:35:16.360Z

I was updating the previous post first. I double checked now but seems to be right.

anon73404375:

In traditional MMO’s, I’m almost always the healer–not because I’m sensitive and I care about other people’s feelings, but because any MMO combat that’s not massed PvP is so depressingly slow and easy that just DPS’ing will bore me to tears. Whatever role has me juggling the most tasks and buttons at once, is the one I gravitate towards. I tend to gravitate toward PvP servers and settings, but I’m conflicted on the matter… While I enjoy a good bit of sport, like the description states on this test, a lot of those “1337 n00bs14y3r” communities on more competitive PvP games really turn me off. You could say I’m a big fan of competition but not so much of competitors.

I usually have been a healer too and if not that then almost always a light armour wearing magic user of some sort. Heavy armour or lack of a meaningful death penalty bores me to tears too as to me there is no thinking involved. Always reminds me of like Call of Duty PvP with people running around as fast as they can go rather than anything close to real life taking time and thought. Thats what happens when it’s too hard to die or like in Call of Duty there is no meaningful death penalty. In case you couldn’t tell, my interest in Call of Duty PvP was found to be zero after the first match. lol

The test I ended up almost totally an Explorer simply because I’m not into social stuff much, had enough real life in the warrior class of life and most of all I think of Boundless as a building and exploring game so had that in mind when taking the test. The hunting in Boundless to me is kind of like Call of Duty in that it doesn’t take a lot of thought (although more than Call of Duty does) and there’s no big penalty to death so it really isn’t a concern. My personality in general made me wish for a “neither” possible answer to half the questions. Like you, I enjoy competition (if it’s challenging and with risk), but, usually can’t stand competitors in games. In real life competitions the good athletes, military skill types, etc. are usually good people. Pixel fighters? Not so much.

Gulvan · 2018-07-28T07:35:55.186Z

60% Killer
53% Explorer&Socializer
33% Achiever

It describes my actions on one of the PvP servers (2014-2017) very well

boundmore · 2018-07-28T08:14:38.011Z

Oh the topic revived.
I shall update the summary when I have a chance, putting new faces to the relevant categories.

One more explorer for the pile:

87% Explorer
60% Socialiser
47% Achiever
7% Killer

boundmore · 2018-07-31T07:50:47.084Z

number 29 of the kind

saryent · 2018-07-31T08:40:01.067Z

I got:
100% Explorer

I am also:
60% Achiever
20% Killer
20% Socialiser

Seems like Boundless attracts the explorer types. Shame there is no builder player type as I bet that would change boundmore’s list of results! Perhaps I could be a BEAKS instead.

Creegle · 2019-06-07T19:18:36.691Z

Necrobump for two reasons. One, new class of folks to report their findings. Two, I miss many of these folks listed here. Shout-out to anyone who posted here that’s been gone for a while. Come back soon!

Mayumichi · 2019-06-07T19:33:59.702Z

Interesting topic, I wonder if this could be plotted somehow to show a more visual representation of the playerbase

You are
67% Explorer
67% Achiever
60% Socialiser
7% Killer
