I think I'm the same with Dota 2. Been playing it since 2008 (the Dota 1 Warcraft 3 map version) and I had invested a lot of time and effort learning the strategies, characters, skills, and items through the years that I just couldn't simply swap it with another MOBA. I got really good at it by...

Actually, that steering wheel controller would be a better gaming experience since it would actually simulate racing and driving. But yeah I agree, if there's no race or competition I can probably appreciate a good driving game; just how the engine sounds on the road and the scenery that takes...

I thought they turned it Free to Play? I was sure I saw that tag on TF2 during the last Steam sale. And yes, it died the moment Overwatch opened the stores. Overwatch really killed a lot of competition, but then again TF2 is a 10 year old game already and of course it had to be overtaken by a...

It was a free game and has achievements so I'll probably play it eventually. Alright, the way you described it sounds fun; I've played Fallout 4 but it was incredibly disappointing. How ironic would it be that a free game that Bethesda released to tease the fans of Fallout 4 release would be a...

Yup, thank technology the USB came along. Even at 128 mb for a cheap USB stick it was an infinitely better option than the floppy disc. They're easier to read, they store more, and at the end of the day you don't have to worry about the file size of your Word document since the storage doesn't...

PS2 games were a pain since you just couldn't install it and forget about the disc. The disc had to work every single time for you to play something. That's kinda why I preferred PC games over console. For PC, just install it once and it will work flawlessly until you either uninstall or you...

Adaptations are never faithful. Look at Game of Thrones. And since Witcher 3 is based on a book series, Netflix will create a TV show about a game about a book series. It's impossible to have the same exact stuff in there since it has gone through so many transitions and story changes to fit the...

Yeah, speedruns when you look at global statistics for the game only have less than 1% completion from all the people who have the game. So I guess that puts you in the top 1% of the players for that game if you somehow managed to do it. Still, it can be frustrating because you just know it...

Wow that sounds great. Too bad it's exclusive to the Nintendo console, I'd love to play it. There was a copy of an emulator for the PC port running around a few months ago, but I hear it's not that good performance-wise because the port wasn't as good as one would hope. Still, I hope to play it...

How's the play hours? Per round and as a whole? Is it like a Civilization type game where it would take at least 5 hours to finish? Had a bunch of games bought during the Steam sale so I currently have my hands full; I'm a bit enjoying the cards that drop though from these games. At least 20...

I've returned games a lot on Steam. Mostly because I use first impressions on the game when I get it. If I don't like what I see in the first hour and a half, it returns to the store. I'd rather not have buyer's remorse, so I have to utilize Steam's refund service, and it comes with rules. It's...

Civ 6. Man, I was so hyped for that game I preordered that one. Waited at one in the morning here for the game to unlock, then played it a bit... I had to refund that crap an hour later. Good thing I got approved, too. Nearly wasted $50 for a crappy game with 1 hour of playtime. Rest of the...

Yup, I broke into some researcher's tent and inadvertently caused their entire research to burn down because some mountain guy wants to create a conspiracy to distract me from whatever I was doing. And... he got away with it, nothing got solved, the body would probably just get burned up by the...

Yeah, PC has more ups than downs. Less fragile, more dependable, higher performance. A laptop is just throwing cash down the drain because at any moment, one small slip up, one wrong move, and you're out hundreds - if not thousands of dollars for repairs and replacements of parts. That is, if...

Never played Sim City but from what I hear it's better. You basically create a town from nothing; manage power sources, water, the road layouts; for me it's simulation that's bigger than what you can do in just one house. I have about 80 hours clocked on it, and they are still adding DLCs. They...

Ultimate freedom. Not bound by quests or roadblocks or anything that requires you to do something before you can go to a different area. It maximizes the replay value when you can go wherever you want and start your own adventure from scratch. Skyrim did a pretty good job of it but there were...

They were available at the glass shop but it's on the mid-high end (around $100). I figure if I was gonna get glasses, might as well get a good end one so it will last for a long time. The expensive part was about the lens, they were anti-glare, and they darken automatically when you step...

Skyrim is still alive and well and it doesn't have an online aspect. A highly moddable game can break time barriers when it comes to the lifespan of the game. In fact, the modding community in Skyrim is so huge and active that Bethesda has tried to monetize the mods so they can get a large...

Is it weird I never finished the Mario games? Any of them? When I was growing up I already had games like Crash Bandicoot which offered a more 3D experience with the platform games that most older players at the time were used to, so I figure it was more fun. It was more than just jumping...

Skyrim. It blew my mind when I first played it. The last RPG I played before Skyrim was Diablo 2 as a kid. I just got a good enough PC to run it back then so I played it. The quests, the skills, the people, the areas, the dungeons, the music, the graphics; it all melded into one perfect gaming...
