In this post I will be talking about the general category of gamers. As far as gaming is concerned there are mainly two types of gamers, firstly the casual players and secondly the core players. The second category is rather a serious type, for them playing a competitive MMORPG can be a matter of life or death. On an average they can spend at least 4-6 hours, glued to their favourite game. In India core gamers are relatively a rare site but these people definitely know how to tame the virtual space. It's fun to hang around with serious gamers, playing in a community.
Now, lets talk about the casual gamers. This category of players game for the sake of instant fun. They mainly play at their workplace, generally at short intervals of 10-15 minutes. Although, such players don't have a preference for a particular type of game but they can dabble with a variety of games. Poker, Sudoku, Chess, puzzles and games from the category of sports, strategy & action are some of their all time favourite. Obviously, it's pretty evident that the majority of Indians belongs to this particular section and they simply love to game online, even though if it's for a short while.

It really comes down to your motivations for playing. Where Casual Games can be motivated by a quick fun break or a 5 min de-stress session a core game can have much deeper motivations. But Casual gamers at least online can spend just as much time if not more than core gamers.
