Pathfinder 1E Tactician not a power gamer

It pegged me as a Storyteller, which is interesting because I usually GM.

You Scored as StorytellerYou're more inclined toward the role playing side of the equation and less interested in numbers or experience points. You're quick to compromise if you can help move the story forward, and get bored when the game slows down for a long planning session.

Not surprising, I scored as Storyteller. I am a bit surprised I got so high as Power Gamer and so low as Casual Gamer (I play quite infrequently, I feel).

You Scored as Method Actor

You think that gaming is a form of creative expression. You may view rules as, at best, a necessary evil, preferring sessions where the dice never come out of the bag. You enjoy situations that test or deepen your character's personality traits.

Pretty close. I play for immersion. To become, as much as possible, my character. However I usually have system mastery and really push the limits of the rules - but I do that between sessions - at the table it's all about the character. As I stole from a poster around here - build 'em like a powergamer, play 'em like a roleplayer.
 

You Scored as Power Gamer

The Power Gamer wants to make his character bigger, tougher, buffer, and richer. However success is defined in your game, that's what you want. You want the "game" put back into "roleplaying game," and you want the chance to add shiny new abilities to your character sheet.

Don't know about the percentages, but overall accurate.

The numbers sound right. As far as the description, I don't mind a long planning session if its what the characters would be doing. And I do angst over the numbers during character creation (to optimize them towards the picture in my head).

I wonder what someone has to be like to score high on Casual Gamer.

I didn't get percentages, but I had to do a three-way tie breaker. I typically prefer GMing, so this makes sense, and I'd rather play an interesting character than an optimized one.
