Is it a skill issue?

The Skill Issue Test settles a question you've been avoiding: when things keep going wrong, is the world rigged, or is it a you problem? Everyone assumes the game is broken. Sometimes the game is fine and the call is coming from inside the house. This self-diagnostic runs you across five areas you'd rather not look at directly and scores how often the issue traces back to the person holding the controller.

Some people come out a Competent Human, genuinely fine, no notes. Most land at Minor Skill Issue or Skill Issue Veteran, a few recurring patterns worth a glance. And a brave few reach Tutorial Failed, at which point the diagnosis is less a result and more an intervention. So is it a skill issue, really? Twenty trials stand between you and an honest answer. No accounts, nothing saved, just you and the uncomfortable possibility that the common denominator has been you all along.

The result runs from Competent Human to Tutorial Failed. Sometimes it really is everyone else. Usually it is a skill issue. This tells you which.

What it measures

The test scores five categories:

How your score works

Your answers move a score across five categories, from decision-making to self-sabotage, and they average into one result from Competent Human to Tutorial Failed. Sometimes your problems really are bad luck. Usually, gently, it is a skill issue.

Who this is for

This is for anyone who has blamed the game when it was the player, and for the friends ready to hear the verdict out loud. Take it if you can handle the diagnosis.
