DGD1 Questionnaire - What Play Style Do You Prefer?

Part 1: About The Way You Play

Indicate the degree to which you feel the statement applies to you, by clicking on the scale which from left to right goes 'Really doesn't apply' to 'totally applies'.
(If you don't feel a statement applies, or you aren't sure, move to the next statement).

	Not at all!	Not much	Neutral	A bit	A lot!
When I first start playing a game, I absolutely want and expect to beat the game.
If I get stuck, I don't keep banging away at the puzzle. I leave that part of the game alone and come back with a fresh perspective.
I generally enjoy messing around with the game, even if I'm not progressing.
The game I'm playing is less important than the people I'm playing with.
When I'm working on a particular challenge, I'll try it over and over again until I beat it.
I want to feel challenged, and I don't mind the game adjusting to my level, as long as it doesn't become too easy.
When I face a hard challenge, and I feel like I will be stuck trying it for ages, I quickly lose interest.
Once I start looking after a game character, I feel bad if I don't take good care of them.
I love it when I beat a really tough challenge - that makes everything worthwhile.
I like games where I can make diverse plans and strategies. I sometimes enjoy a game I lose if I feel I played well and interestingly.
Sometimes I get swept up in the experience of the game and completely forget about the goals I've been given.
I'd much rather play with other people than play alone.
Most of the time I won't stop playing until I know I've seen and beaten everything.
The way I play is more important than winning, because I want to master the games I play.
I usually have more than one game on the go... I don't need to finish one game to start another - a new experience is more rewarding than mastering something familiar.
I'd prefer a game world with lots of characters to interact with, over a world with lots of details to explore.
