Not bad, had several remarks that made me chuckle.
I'd probably switch the positions of Subscription Surfer and Giveaway Grabber but I see why you placed them like that.

Yeah I can see those two being switched and it still working. Glad it made you chuckle!

this image miss people that decide for personal reasons to play ONLY "free to play" games like warframe,spacelord,genshiimpact and similar,they are different than "Subscriptions" people or the other categories you draw and has nothing to do with bundles,giveaways because these other things require more money or time to invest in non-gaming online\offline activity , where viceversa freetoplay is instant play dedicate time\money only in the gameplay session and not in other things etc.
also there is some people only buy 1 game and play that for 1 year,for example i know one my friend him have and play only cod never play another game,and i know another 2 friend one only play gta and another only play fifa..
they are different than all other categories in the image

I did list F2P / free games in the Giveaway Grabber description. Maybe Freebie Freeloader would've been a better name. Hmm.
Fair point about the people that only play a single type of game though!

Love it! I can see a few people I know reflected in your chart, although I have no idea where I would be placed at. Love your shark drawing!

Ah, that is excellent :D Glad you followed through with your idea, had a good chuckle.
Pretty on point on describing the key-elements of each "persona" ^^ Props for creativity and execution!

Nicely done, some are pretty spot on and funny to read, but there's room for improvement. For example, your average hoarder could potentially be a mix of the sale shark and the giveaway grabber, not quite fitting either. Also there's those that behave in a way on one platform but completely differently in another, I for one am willing to spend money on PC games but refuse to give a cent to the android play store and just subsist on freebies, while only emulating (and by extension pirating) console games.

My thought process was that it would be more entertaining to have extremes that adhere only to one method of aquiring games. I think in reality, most people are gonna be mixes of a lot of these types.
Fair point that the behavior is different on other platforms! On Switch, I usually just try to buy used copies locally. That's not even an option with modern PC games, really.

You should add a poll to the thread to see how diverse the SG community is!
(totally a thrifty trader here)

Ah, dang, that would've been a good idea. I don't think I can add a poll retrospectively though!

Create a new discussion with a poll, and post the image embedded:
I like it a lot btw, I think the neutral-neutral "giveaway grabber" should lead the poll but who knows :)

Lawful good just means a sucker who will drop $100 on a game that may not actually be good.
I’ve been burned by a few kickstarters, a preorder, and despise some publishers with their regional pricing.
I’m probably a combination of shark and packrat - lots of games, play a lot, collect a lot, want a lot.

I'm some version of the rare Benevolent Benefactor here. I do buy games on release, but they are sequels to smaller games I liked and not expensive AAA games. I have played most of my small collection and I leave a review for every game I complete. TIL that I'm the pure angel of Steam gaming.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hell yeah! I definitely need to get better about leaving reviews, I always just feel like I should say more about them than just "I liked it" and so I often put it off.
Comment has been collapsed.
It's a way for me to "close the book" on a game when I feel done. I'm logging what I thought about the game and can go back later to remember, contributing to the total amount of reviews for the game, and of course giving devs a bit of feedback if they care. I'm also basically logging how many games I complete a year without really thinking about it. The only thing I feel bad about is when a game has left me pissed and I leave an angry review with some not-so-carefully chosen words, but those kinds of reviews are also my most "helpful" ones...

Very nice! The true neutral was the funniest. :)
I'm not sure where I fit in there, probably neutral-good, but I never used gg deals or whatever this is!
Comment has been collapsed.
it's a site aggregating info about any digital game sales, discounts, bundles etc kinda like isthereanydeal.com
Comment has been collapsed.
haha, that's awesome! Looks like I'll be neutral-good here :D
you should have made the image public on imgur, lol. you'd probably score some major internet points for that :D

Nice one. I'm probably a cross between Sale Shark and Giveaway Grabber myself :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Neat!
Looks like I'm some combination of Neutral Good (Sale Shark) and Lawful Neutral (Thrifty Trader), my backlog is endless :P
I also still have a Blu-Ray drive in my PC, but it's rarely used.

Guess i am all over the place then. Fun chart tho.
Comment has been collapsed.
Completely a sales shark here, tho I tend to be more and more picky with bundles xD
Really nice drawing chart, I will keep an eye on your work I think ;3

omg I love this XD
I used to be a Thrifty Trader, now a Sales Shark, but I appear to be turning over a new leaf in my gaming life and may become the elusive Benevolent Benefactor :' ) (but realistically i'm probably just going to buy the occasional game on sale, kickstart a few games and support devs. So i'm going to be Sale Benefactor??)
Comment has been collapsed.
Well done! Seems I'm a Sales Shark. Welp, not regretting my choices, haha.
