I thought the Unified Model did well in explaining the personality types.
When reading Bartle’s model i agreed with the sections individually but found myself drawn to both Explorer and Killer, which the model did not explain. As the model was being added to i began to understand why the author was making the Unified Model in the first place, to make an accurate and inclusive model, which he did. I didn’t identify with the entire Keirsey model but using Bartle’s model as an overlay i understood it better and i bet others may have the inverted effect, giving more credence to both models. But the gap between Explorer and Killer, being total opposites was still a concern as i like exploring the mechanics of games in depth but like the intense gameplay and interactions that interest the Killer. It was saved by adding the DGD1 model to fill in the gaps resulting in the accurate classification of Manager for me, which is the median gamer personality for Killer and Explorer. Now comparing that with my Myer Briggs result the accuracy is astonishing, Explorer is classic ENTJ and i suspect the further classification of the -A personality might explain the Killer addition. Even the personality titles of the Myer Briggs and the result of the Unified Model are related as Manager and Commander, being information and strategy based with a strong will and ability/desiring to interact/exert dominance. The descriptions of what games people may prefer based on the personalities was eye-opening, someone i know is most definitely a Participant personality (absolute opposite of Manager) and neither of us like the same games, i am particular to Portal-like games and MMORPGs and they prefer social management games like city skylines and the Sims. The model generalizes large categories to a point where everyone would (With all likely-ness) find one category the resonate with, even if see that determining accurately what games someone likes based on their Model defined personality is improbable as there are many other factors on game preference external to personality.
-This is the results of my Myer Briggs test for reference.
