I'm somewhere between Conqueror and Wanderer. Very slightly Monster... because when I'm in a bad mood I'm extremely antisocial. When I come to an obstacle I will either do everything possible to get around it, or just give up.

And I really hate my real-life situation so I like to immerse myself in any game I play.

Did I do it right >_>

I'll stick with Zinger on this. MTG stylled psychographics are better.

Besides, I think I'm Conquer stylish. And Johnny/Spike in the other system. Zinger's definitions are horrible.

Pretty much sums it up for me as well as most of the gamers I know and play with.

I think that I'm a cross between Wanderer, Participant and Juggernaut.

Manager.

A hint to people who think they're everything, think about what annoys you the most, and that will help you narrow down your most important. For me, not knowing how something works in a game makes it totally unplayable to me and will cause me to quit if I can't find out what makes the system tick.

I think this thread is irrelevant. I can say in all honesty that I have experienced each of those play-style desires, and others that I could define as different from those.

Does anyone really play games for the same reason every time? I think if that were true of anyone, they'd find very little fun in playing Guild Wars, as Guild Wars is a collective experience of a multitude of different gaming experiences, which would not satisfy only one of these types.

Is anyone really that boring?
If anyone is, they play WoW.

Somewhere between a manager, a wanderer and a juggernaut.

I'm probably not a monster because although I do PvP for fun and the titles that come with it, I always feel bad when I make someone rage quit

Primary Profession: Wanderer. I looove RPGs that do all they can to immerse me into my character (The Elder Scrolls. nuff said.) In GW this means watching ALL of the cutscenes, reading all available lore, and actually ROLEPLAYING once in awhile.

Secondary Profession: Juggarnaut. I use God Mode in any and all games in which it is available, because I enjoy laughing my ass off as nigh-unbeatable enemies are mowed down by my character.
In GW this translates as going back to Ascalon/N. Shiverpeaks and killing everything in sight with one of my warriors.

Conqueror/Manager with a significant Hoarder mentality.

I'm an SS necro usually. So I'm easily a Juggernaut. There is no larger joy to me than seeing a huge group of monsters send dozens of pretty "37's" and "39's" above their heads, followed subsequently by them all dropping dead in an instant.

I guess i'm a manager aswell as that social type... I'm forever twiddling with builds getting completely insane effects out of them.

Yet while focusing on a problem is fun it would be dull if there wasn't anyone to show off my skills to so i'm that social type aswell. Gets me the best stories that make you like the game and continue to play it.

Just yesterday playing the Shaoshang trail with a guildie in hard mode. We got the crap beaten out of us initially

Ranger (Guildie)
Monk (hero)
Monk (hero)
Elementalist (Me)
Elementalist (hero)
Necromancer (Guildie)

We couldn't deal enough damage to there monks without them healing through them... Then it occured to me we were going about it wrong. I altered one of the Monk hero's to a Healer/Smiter Specifically with Scourge enchantment aswell as Scourge healing.

I then changed my build to be a Geomancer with Stoneflesh aura and kentic armor combined with ward against melee and various other support for it.

The effect was amazing I ran ahead and the manatids were all like
"BAAHHHH!!!! DIEEEEE!!!" and I was like "brouhaha I'm unbreakable!!" Just like this reenactment displays.

Hundreds of 0dmg +1 energy fly off me as I seizure under a hail of darts.

Then while they prat around on me I order my Monk to load Scourge enchantment onto there monk and my teammates tear it to bits. When the manatids changed targets my teammates just dove into the wards I was putting up and we won very quickly.

My main type is manager. I love strategy games and my RPG experience goes way back to D&D. Secondary is wanderer.
