- "it's missing questions about FEELINGS and emotional responses. E.g. I play horror games to feel scared, I play cozy games to feel happy, etc" - I couldn't figure this out yesterday but I fully agree - there's no space in the quiz for gamers who are motivated by the game making them feel an emotion. And as people pointed out, that is a commonly accepted motivation for engaging with movies and shows! So why isn't it in their quiz?

But today, I found a video about the quiz, and while the video itself was not good (it was full of weird pseudoscience and bad statistics), the comments had some good insights:
- "It's the Myers Briggs test but for gamers" - I agree 100%. It has the same flaws and the same fundamental issues. However, I think it does get a small amount of credit for being focused on motivations rather than just "this is a fundamental identity truth".

Yesterday I found this "gamer motivations" quiz, which supposedly identifies what motivates you as a gamer™ (e.g. collecting all the things, competing against others, immersion in a fantasy world, etc).
When I did the quiz, I thought a few things were off, but I couldn't really put them into words.

Here is the quiz, in case you want to try it: https://apps.quanticfoundry.com/surveys/start/gamerprofile/
