Subject field(s)
  • Sociology of Recreation
  • Games and Toys (General)
DEF

[A] classification of video game players [...] according to their preferred actions within the game.

CONT

It seems that role-playing games are the types of games that frequently hold all of the Bartle taxonomy of player types. Achievers earn gold and XP (experience points), socializers carouse and talk with friends, explorers scour the game world, and killers raise hell.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sociologie des loisirs
  • Jeux et jouets (Généralités)
CONT

L'idée de départ de la typologie de joueurs de Bartle est simple : même si tout le monde joue au même jeu, chacun peut le jouer en recherchant quelque chose de différent.
