The Myers-Briggs Test is a pseudo-scientific test that aims top categorize people in one of 16 personality types.
We can use this test to have an “external” point of view on our persona (ideal player).
Our persona has an ENFP personality type:
(E) Extroverted: 40% STRONG
(N) Intuitive: 10% LOW
(F) Feeling: 40% STRONG
(P) Prospecting: 30% MEDIUM
This is perfect for our game: a cooperative shooter where the Players discover how become the best team and where missions can go wrong quickly.
The Big5 is the scientific alternative to the Myers-Briggs Test, that rates people over 5 categories.
We can then compare these results against our design to have an indicator of how adequate it is.
Neuroticism: Low
Extroversion: High+
Openness To Experience: High
Agreeableness: High
Conscientiousness: Medium+
From these results, we can see that our persona is:
Seeks out new strategies; Great in team-working environments; This resonates strongly with our original persona and our core design.
