what type of player are you??(PvP, PvE, Rp or an altoholic)

Post » Thu Feb 27, 2014 3:59 am

So just vote in the poll and explain how you became that type of player :)

I personally like PvP with some RP on the side, PvE wise I like small group content.

All three.
Sometimes I get really into PvP. PvE gets boring when it's repetitive until new content comes out.

I love to RP. :x

Oh, MASSIVE altoholic. I reroll and delete literally every few hours until my friends are so far ahead of me I have to pick something.

Then at level cap I reroll an hour after hitting cap, then do it over and over until I have all classes/roles.

There was a time in my life where I never hit level cap in some games, I would make it a few levels away and reroll over and over.
I never gear properly because I always spend time on my alts.

I enjoy all three gaming styles.

Usually PVE first, then with the same group do PVP, and eventually end with a RP session. Thats how virtual comradeship is born. Although i usually have different friends for different activities. Not everyone is that flexible.

I'm primarily an RP type of the 'simulationist' variety (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNS_Theory for contrast to narrativist RPer.)

But my particular take on RP discourages considering the differences between a player character and an NPC character. It's a factor outside the world, outside the simulation, therefore irrelevant to me when I'm "in character." This means I tend towards both PvP and PvE in whatever measure the gameworld itself allows; and prefer games where the line between PvE and PvP is as blurred as possible.

Or to put it another way... other players are part of the environment, ergo PvP is PvE :P

I think my first main focus of the game will be crafting. I want to get a head start on the market and get my name established as a reliable crafter who has the traits/skills you need. After that I'll do a bit of everything.

PvE with a slight tendency to sometimes be an altoholic.

Used to be mainly PvE but ESO might just make a PvPer out of me :)

Explorer/Experimenter. PvE and PvP are just a means to see new things and access new resources.

50/50 pve and pvp. I like both since I play every piece of pve possble and I love bashing heads in pvp. Im not a rper, I have never been good for it.

RP. I find that it makes the best communities. I like PvE mostly but PvP must be there as well. Depends on the PvP though. I dislike confined PvP areas for the sake of grinding tokens etc - it is too "fake" for my tastes - I like free PvP.

If we're gonna be trying to break down our playstyles into percentages, then I'd say I'm probably something like 99% pve and 1% pvp...no, no, maybe 99.98% pve and 0.02% pvp...

Yea, PvP in MMORPGs has never really appealed to me (and I've tried across a decent number of games). Not entirely sure why.

RPer e'rry day. I love PvE and PvP, but the thing that will keep me going is the community at the end of the day. If the RPers aren't there, I tend to phase out. Longest MMO I have been is was, what? 4 years with CoH until it phased out just because of how welcoming it felt for RPers. With ESO's slew of emotes, background (Which I actually know of. XD) and way I can easily be immerse in it, from experience in the previous stress-test beta I can see this being an easy game to get into for RP... Long as other RPers are there.

I would describe myself as 40% RP,40% PVE,20% PVP but mostly a socializer ad explorer
Made a topic earlier today that is somewhat relevant to the question I think;
http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1491000-suggestionaedra-resembling-gamer-types-ingame/
I do enjoy lobby pvp more than world pvp though if I must be honest.
I didn't enjoy wvw in guildwars 2 as strenght was just in numbers and other players engaging while you were not really in the mood
but just wanted to do some exploration sightseeing
Yet that element of danger was sometimes exciting..I have mixed feelings about it I guess
I do enjoy exploration alot and becoming one with the character.
Voted other because it really depends on my mood too
It is a pitty that certain playstyles are linked to certain areas in ESO in my opinion though

Im more of a PVE/RP player...but I think I can easily get into the PVP element in Eso.

Other MMO's PVP was restricted to people who had "PVP gear"...at least in Eso, there is no differentiation between gear.

Mainly a PvE player with a little RP on the side every now and then. I've never reached max level in an MMO game before though.

Mainly an altaholic. I dabble in PVP and RP but its not my main reason to play. I like making characters simple as that. I tend to get bored of jut one.
