Problem: it calls me an Achiever. I hate chasing achievements, collecting whatever useless trinket is necessary for some equally useless cosmetic award and the like.

 

And the reason it does this is because it focuses on things that I would concider incidental to gaming at best. Give me romances, plot twists, guile heroes vs. magnificent bastards, intricate plot twists and ever changing allies.

 

That's gaming, to me. Hanging along a ledge or collecting pointless trinket number 65 is simply the price I pay for getting what I want.

Seeker-Acheiver

 

Seeker: 16
Achiever: 14
Mastermind: 9
Daredevil: 7
Conqueror: 6
Survivor: 3
Socialiser: -8

 

And people wonder why I'm so vehemently against multiplayer in games it isn't needed in. Go science!

Your BrainHex Class is Mastermind.

Your BrainHex Sub-Class is Mastermind-Conqueror.

You like solving puzzles and devising strategies as well as defeating impossibly difficult foes, struggling until you eventually achieve victory, and beating other players.

Each BrainHex Class also has an Exception, which describes what you dislike about playing games. Your Exceptions are:

 

» No Commitment: You dislike being asked to complete everything, preferring to pick and choose which tasks you will attempt, or simply messing around with a game.

 

 

 
 
Spot on.

Here's mine:

 

Class:  Mastermind

Sub-Class:  Mastermind-Seeker

Mastermind:  19

Seeker:         18

Achiever:       16

Survivor:         8

Socializer:       4

Conqueror:     4

Daredevil:      -2 (LOL)

 

Apparently the guys who are doing this are somehow linked to EA and have worked with them in the past. But in terms of actual hard science research, I don't know how far down the rabbit hole goes.

 

It seems like standard fare social science research.  It doesn't need to be grounded in "hard science" if they aren't making claims that it speaks to biology.  If it's based on personality and opinion and uses very basic quantitative measures, it seems a-ok for the social sciences. 

I'm interested in their research, but I don't have time to explore that right now.  I put my email in for the case-study, thing though.  As a researcher, I can't not volunteer.  It's so hard to get volunteers sometimes.  Hoping to get my research participant karma in a good place.

Your BrainHex Sub-Class is Daredevil-Seeker.

You like rushing around at heights or high speed while you are still in control as well as finding strange and wonderful things or finding familiar things.

 

Your Exceptions are: » No Mercy: You rarely if ever care about hurting other players' feelings - mercy is for the weak!

Daredevil: 14
Seeker: 14
Conqueror: 13
Achiever: 10
Survivor: 7
Mastermind: 7
Socialiser: 0

 

Funny, I actually do care about other people's feelings except when in the middle of combat I am pretty merciless.  Also this questionnaire had no little story element to it.  I am wondering if this questionnaire tests preferred gameplay style versus motivation to play a game? Also I think I have the highest Daredevil score here.  Yay?

Yeah, one thing in particular I've noticed is that a lot of the Seeker people have somewhat interesting avatars.

Acheiver - Mastermind

 

Though I do have the problem that I feel I fit a more story and character based gamer, though there is no group or many questions for that category.

It also makes sense that we are seeing so many mastermind, achiever, and seeker scores given that the people taking it are posting their results on the message board for a western RPG developer.

I would say it would be a mix of Seeker and Achiever who are really into the story aspect of video games. The company International Hobo, primarily caters to the RPG crowd and children games as contradictory as that sounds. They are a consultant company for script writing and storytelling primarily. I would say they would be a good resource if you had no experience with making games and you wanted to make an indie title.
