I'm doing some super serious statistics here! Please answer!

Extrovert: "Partying and hanging out with people is fun."
Introvert: "Partying and hanging out with people is a nightmare."

Love achievements: "Actually, they're pretty fun. Sorry hipsters!"
Hate achievements: "A crime against gaming. People who like them are having fun WRONG!"

I guess i fall in between intro and extrovert although some days i do truly despise everyone unfortunate to cross my line of sight.

As for achievements, yes i do truly hate them to a extreme extent and consider it a shitstain on gaming.

That's it.

Partying and hanging out with people is NOT a nightmare. People are nightmares. Some are nice. Most are tolerable in small doses.

Achievements? Sometimes fun, but my obsessive-compulsive part of the brain says I'm better off without them. I'm mostly impartial to the whole thing.

I hate achievements but I'm a introvert and consider myself a hipster.
As for people, in the words of Charles Bukowski, “I don't hate them...I just feel better when they're not around.”

Better file me under "Other".

I'm introvert and I don't care for achivements.

I'll bite cause it was super serious. Introvert + Love Achievements.

when my youngest kid was born four years ago, i went almost full-on introvert, and still mostly am (though i love a good, rowdy party).

back in my twenties i was an closet introvert leading an extrovert's lifestyle because of my hobby.

i don't care about achievements as long as they don't hinder me in any way (i.e. backing up my save file & a few other things).

Seems interesting, please let us know the results of whatever you are doing! :P

As for me, I would be considered an introvert (that's why I don't post often in the forums but am here way more often than I would like to admit... XD) and I love hunting for achievements! (I like the extra challenge/sometimes rewards they offer in games!)

Hope this helps! :)

All Finns are introverts, and we hate achievements to the core! And I am not talking about gaming achievements only..

"Who does that person think he is, gloating about his achievements? Get back in the line!".

Due to our humble nature, we prefer buying from the Humble Store. We would never buy anything from the "ZaZammm! I Am The Most Bestest Ever!"-store.

Introvert: I like partying, though, but only with close friends.
Love-Hate Achievements: I never liked them. As a long-time DRM-Free player, I never cared a **** about them and never needed them. Although some games had their own internal achievements/unlocks system that was sometimes fun. But now that they are implemented into Galaxy, I feel that sense of satisfaction whenever I get some new achievement. My heart is truly divided. Or my brain (left side likes them, right side hates them)

Growing up in Brazil I always saw myself as an introvert.

Then I moved to Japan and suddenly most of the time I was the biggest extrovert in the room.


Most of the time I don't pay attention to achievements, but when I like the game and see the requirements aren't too high I'll try and get them all. As a guided tour to experience everything the game has to offer,

1. I'm more of a blend but leaning towards introvert.

2. It depends on the game, I don't care for arcade-style achievements with popups and silly jokes in a game like SIlent Hill 2 or Ico for example. Generally if it can be woven into the game more subtly with in-game rewards then that's preferable for me. I've never done an achievement that wasn't fun to do just for the stats or whatever.

I'm an introvert, bit on the extreme side. With the recent political development in my country, also a more bitter one, losing faith in humanity in general.

I think I don't have strong feelings about achievements. They can be nice sometimes when they present some additional challenge in a game I like, sometimes they feel cheap and useless. But I hate when the achievements are exclusive to having Steam version of the game, or Galaxy, or whatever. If they are, they should work in game.

I consider myself as an introvert.
In the past I didn't like achievements. Now I look once in a while whether a new one was unlocked. Especially in games that doesn't catch me.

This a weird connection you're drawing here.

I don't think videogame achievements are a litmus test for where on the spectrum you lie.

Me I don't give a shit about achievements and when the game comes along that is the exception I mostly find just irritating. The best usage of achievements is as a vehicle for jokes, like in TF2.

I am a hard introvert. I can get along with people just fine but I keep to myself quite a bit.

Also I don't really care for this "introvert"/"extrovert" structure. I think it's simplistic and I think these tendencies come from more than one neurological-eletrical origin. If there is a word to denote the environmentally influenced running neurological electrical circuit everybody develops, I don't know it yet. neuro-electromonic-packachazzy
