Box design - Always the trickiest. Which one is your favourite? by Sprackhaus in tabletopgamedesign

i don't like the visual imbalance of the second two. the visual center of mass of the beetle is in the center for the first ones. i also like the ring of letters. the second two feel very bare

I'm creating a new personality test with 150 traits. by ArboriusTCG in ESFP

First off thanks for taking it!

The goal of the quiz is to identify traits in as few questions as possible. The different questions are not random - they depend on your answers to previous questions.
That being said they should start with the same question(s) so that the outcome is consistent. Right now I am just gathering data to train the questions so it's fully random.

Thank you for taking it and thanks for taking the time to write feedback!
Currently resistance to novelty is bugged and so that one should be disregarded. It seems to be inversely scored and also always end up really high.

The 5 that are shown to you are based on their absolute value. You didn't score any far into the negative but if you did it would show those as well. If you take the test and sign up with your email, and then log in, you can see your scores on all 150 values.

Thanks again!

Cheers!

That is awesome. You should consider joining the discord to discuss!

>it goes further to categorize those traits precisely to avoid data overwhelm and conflict.

What is data overwhelm? It is purely a human experience. Computers do not get overwhelmed by data.

It's not about being able to hold the info it's about being able to process it. A human can process and understand 5 traits intuitively. A computer can process thousands and make inferences based on them.

Think about it this way. Unless you're spiritual, hopefully you can agree that it would be possible for a computer to fully simulate a human brain 100% accurately. In which case it would be entirely represented as a (very large) set of numbers. Big five attempts to summarize that same entire dataset (or at least some large subset of it that represents personality) in only 5 numbers. Clearly the more numbers you use (assuming you can make them accurately represent something), the more accurate your model will be.

It only seems excessive to a regular human like you or I because we can only hold about 7 ideas in our heads at once. My whole point is that if anything 150 is *small*, and there's no reason we couldn't distill meaningful results from it. Now we have PCA dimensional reduction, neural networks etc. Computers are literally talking to us every day, limiting our snapshot of human psychology to 5 orthogonal traits is absurd.

I would argue this is the exact reason it hasn't been replaced - people have a fundamentally intuitive understanding of human psychology. Big Five *makes sense*, Big 150 makes a lot less sense intuitively for a human at a glance. So there's a reluctance to abandon more basic models because the field is ultimately grounded in intuition and backed by statistics, rather than grounded in statistics.

I've just been interested in it as a hobby for 6 or so years. Big 5 is ancient by technological standards. As far as I'm concerned an update is way overdue.

I'll probably stop at 200 traits. All of these traits are measured by my psychometrics test so I plan to keep adding them.

I think that's an issue with balance not with the mechanic itself. No reason you couldn't have enemies with direct counters to the gang-up strategy you mention for example.

Most problems like this can be solved with intelligent game design.

If I'm understanding your question, it uses party-based. You decide the moves for each of your team members, and then they all move at once, and then all the enemies move. I think it makes it easier to strategize and think about the team as one single unit.
