He missed my archetype. Not sure what it would be called, but the only thing that would keep me interested in a game is finding ways to combine items, events, effects, etc to create situations where I'd be able to do things the designers never thought about, and that most considered impossible.
In other words, my goal was to defeat the gods. And it's very much the way I live my life in general.

- SAI_Peregrinus 10y agoI'm also a Johnny. I'd say a more general term is "builder". Players who like making new things in games are builders. Sandbox construction games like Minecraft, Kerbal Space Program, Space Engineers, etc, tend to suit us. Builders probably best fit under Explorer in the Bartle Taxonomy, with some Achiever elements.
