Gaming

Playing video games is a great way to explore other worlds, engage in competition, and interact with friends and even strangers across the globe. Since the rise of gaming in the &#39;70s with the Atari classic Pong, gaming has become a cultural staple and resulted in some of the most iconic and recognizable <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/nintendo-character-based-on-zodiac/crystal-brackett" target="_blank">characters</a>&nbsp;in the world. Psychologists have dug deep into whether or not video games are harmful, but they&#39;ve also explored another fascinating topic: video game personality types.&nbsp;

The 1.2 billion gamers across the globe are a diverse group&nbsp;with an equally diverse crop of&nbsp;games to play. With so many games out there, it can be hard to choose a favorite. As with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/what-your-favorite-fictional-character-says-about-you/nathan-gibson" target="_blank">favorite fictional characters</a>, however,&nbsp;certain personality traits might draw people to particular&nbsp;games. But what makes a Call of Duty devotee different from a Sims fan, or a Portal player from a Doki Doki Literature Club&nbsp;fan? Do video games and&nbsp;personality&nbsp;go together? Your <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-games-of-all-time?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">favorite video game</a>&nbsp;may say a lot more about you than you think. It&#39;s time to delve into what your favorite video game genre says about you.&nbsp;GLaDOS would be proud.

Think about your favorite games. While video games don't need a strong plotline to prove addicting (looking at you, <a href="https://www.ranker.com/review/team-fortress-2/2154997" target="_blank">Team Fortress 2</a>),&nbsp;some of <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-games-of-all-time" target="_blank">the greatest&nbsp;games in history</a>&nbsp;feature engrossing plots, <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/video-game-character-design-origins/nathan-gibson" target="_blank">intriguing character design</a>, and twists.However, a game with a good story doesn't guarantee a satisfying ending. While everyone hopes their 40-hour-long play session will resolve cleanly, sometimes the developers have other plans, like pitting the player against a gargantuan evil baby to see who has the best rhythm.Weird video game endings aren't necessarily boring, but they're usually nonsensical enough to <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/confusing-video-game-storylines/zack-howe" target="_blank">leave the player stunned and&nbsp;confused</a>&nbsp;about&nbsp;what happened. For better or&nbsp;worse, bizarre, left-field game endings feel like a complete 180&deg; from the stories preceding&nbsp;them.

Playing Around in Overwatch

Overwatch

Overwatch&nbsp;has only been out since 2016, but in a few short years,&nbsp;we&#39;ve already seen the addition of tons of&nbsp;new heroes, maps, and even&nbsp;the <a href="https://overwatchleague.com/en-us/" target="_blank">Overwatch League</a>, which follows professional Overwatch teams from all over the world. With all this success, it&#39;s clear this game has secured its spot as one of the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-pc-competitive-games-steam/ranker-games" target="_blank">best competitive games</a> out there. One of the reasons this game is so popular is the plethora of&nbsp;characters with&nbsp;rich and varied backgrounds.

In addition to several different hero classes, each character has their own unique ultimate ability that -&nbsp;if timed right -&nbsp;can turn the tide in favor of your team. There may be no bad ults in Overwatch, but there are clearly a few crowd favorites.&nbsp;
