I do see a lot of similarities in the games that I play. A lot of these games have the player play as the "hero" to defeat some sort of dark and evil entity. All these games also require the player to grind and collect resources to become stronger to defeat stronger enemies at the later stages of the game. 

To figure out what type of game I personally enjoy playing, I need to figure out what type of gamer am I. So I did the survey on http://survey.ihobo.com/BrainHex/ and my top 2 are Conqueror and Achiever. This means that I enjoy games where combat is involved, (a more difficult fight could be more rewarding), with some kind of goal in mind such as completing quests and objectives. By looking at the 10 games I listed above, all those games can fit into these categories.
