I understand the INTJ vision of him, but I'd go with ISTJ instead, being honest. He looks more like a Si dominant than a Ni dominant for me. I think he fits better in a Sensing type than in an Intuitive-type of person. I often find Ns to be kind of dreamy and sometimes give sad-ish vibes, while Ss are more down to earth and focused. Taking into consideration his interviews, he looks like a pretty realistic person.When you look at ISTJ cognitive functions they fit him perfectly. Si: I mean, damn, he spent days and days improving his skills to make Stardew Valley all by himself. He is an incredibly determined man who will work until finishing what he has planned. Look: a Ni dominant would have made a much more deep game with lots of mysterious theories and cool hidden stories. And I am not saying that SV is a simple game, I am just saying that it may not be the main point of it. It is very focused on little, concrete things. I would describe the game as elaborated and detailed, not as a deep, meaningful game.Te: During the process, he took it calmly and didn't do anything without thinking a lot about it first. He is SO focused and workaholic. He also said that he hates asking for help before. Once he got the idea of creating the game, he went straight and started doing it. He values accomplishment and goals. Fi: I OBVIOUSLY agree that he is a Fi tertiary, he made the game to express his internal individuality and ideas. He said that he got inspiration from Harvest Moon and some mistakes or limitations that bothered him (such an ISTJ, I told u). He also pointed out that he prefers working alone in his own project, and that made much easier finishing the game. So yeah, there's no doubt for me.
