Are you a team player or solo? Do you preorder or wait for the game to release? Last, when you get a new game do you, go at the game's pace while it gives you tips or do you rush into the game to learn from mistakes?
My answer: Solo, Wait, & Rush.
How about you? (Disclaimer) this is just a fun little game for showing the type of gamer you are. Why? Idk.
Solo in most games. I wait until a game has been out for awhile so it's cheaper. Depends on the game.
Um.. solo games, but I like being part of a group of people tackling a single game
In general, I like to read the reviews of games before I decide to drop any money on them. In other gaming communities, maybe you have to keep up with trends to join conversations, but In this community, it doesn't really matter.
Even if you're 50 years late to a game's launch and millions have played it before you, if your run is better than anyone else's before you, then how late you are doesn't even really apply.
I haven't read a single instruction manual in my life. Before the internet era, this has actually ended up costing me more time than it might have if I just took a few seconds to learn about certain button combos. On the other hand, it sometimes forces you to find creative solutions. I mean, who thinks of using a butterfly net to fight Ganon or pouring forest water on Kalle Demos? Because that stuff is certainly not in the game's manual.
I play mostly single player games. That said, I'd still put myself in the boat of being a team player more. If i have the choice to be a support character, chances are I will be a support character.
I only preorder when there is a high likely hood that I can't get a product at launch that I would otherwise want at launch. It's pretty few and far between, but it happens.
I'm definitely a slow person for going at a game. Honestly, most games I play I end up not enjoying, or not enjoying for very long. Most games aren't worth putting that much time into sadly, in my opinion. I usually spend a lot more time learning about a game than I do playing it. Toss me a wiki about a game I'm really interested in and I'll read near every single page before I even boot up the game or get out of chargen. Maybe that's why the games aren't fun because I kill all the surprise, but... I like reading. :)
