Casual

For me that means i want playing to be fun. I avoid hard or challenging games, i want to relax when i play.
I also prefer a storyline.



but many people have fun playing hard games


I am not many people



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Really dislike these options. Also dislike the term gamer. Why do we have to be put in a labeled box.. What kind of movier are you guys btw?



It varies, I can go for a month without playing anything and then dive into a 60 hour gaming week. On the whole, I spend a lot more time than average on games and gaming though, but I don't know exactly how I'd "classify" myself based on the poll, probably intermittent hardcore...



People on forums are hardcore by definition.

i think i'm average. I don't necessarily play a lot of "hardcore" games (who decides what game is hardcore?) I don't have as much time anymore, but i tend to play with my friends when i do play.



most 2d games,fps,mmo,action etc games are hardcore

I go on and off between average and hardcore. Depends on what is out at the time and what is going on in real life.

Casual. I'm not ashamed.



I'm like a lot of you. When the time allows I can get lost in a good game for hours on end. Unfortunately life has a habit if getting in the way of my playing time. There should have been a binge option. I don't play very much, but when I do it's balls to wall!



"Games are a trigger for adults to again become primitive, primal, as a way of thinking and remembering. An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that's all. When I am a child, creating, I am not creating a game. I am in the game. The game is not for children, it is for me. It is for an adult who still has a character of a child."

Average, shading toward casual.

I have other hobbies so I don't actually spend a huge amount of time playing games. If I like a game, I'll get really into it and play it for quite awhile--I like long games--but I don't buy many games and I'll quickly stop playing a game if I don't care for it much. That's why I have a huge back-log, I've started a ton of games and just couldn't get into them, so I put them off for later.
