    Do you wait for discounts?

    I've been burned before by crappy games with big hype and an expensive price tag. I preordered Civ 6 because I was a huge fan of the series, and come the first day of the release I ended up not liking it, and even refunding it an hour later. Wasted my time waiting, but at least I didn't waste my...

    Do you wait for discounts?

    I can honestly wait for years to play a game as long as the price is right. I won't buy anything that's not 50% off, so the only time I spend money on games is during sales, usually 3 times a year for Steam. I haven't played Phantom Pain yet; Assassins Creed games are still expensive, but I am...

    How often do you buy new games?

    Don't you guys have sales or something? On PC there are sales where games go up to 90% off. I remember when I still had my PS2 that discs were the same price all year round. Things still haven't changed for consoles I imagine? If so then switching to PC would be an incentive if you want to save...

    How often do you buy new games?

    Me too. I bought all the Witcher products to support the devs because they made an amazing job with the Witcher 3. 2 full sized DLCs as well as a ton of free DLCs which have quests, costumes, etc; and they're not overcharging their players either. The Game of the Year edition is really low...

    How often do you buy new games?

    I NEVER buy brand new AAA games. I'm the patient type of gamer and I'd rather wait a year or so for the price to drop. This usually means that by that time, updates and DLCs have been released, which would have a good chance on them getting discounts as well, especially when the games are in...

    How often do you buy new games?

    That's why I don't pay full price. It's easier to swallow when the game sucks if you paid $1 for it. I mean, no harm no foul, at least I got cards from it or something. It's also the reason why I just go on sales since most games are incredibly discounted to the point where they basically don't...

    Do you like to play strategy games?

    I find turn-based strategy games a bit boring since they take longer to play and take any action away by switching turns. Real time strategy is action-packed since all teams start at the same time, and it's a literal arms race to see who gets the big guns faster, while managing defensive...

    Do you like to play strategy games?

    I agree. You don't have to grind hours in strategy games to get better items. Both teams start with the same units; it's all a matter of how you budget your time and resources during the time period where you are building your base. MMORPGs however are pretty pay-to-win dominant; and the truly...

    Last Game Played?

    I love Witcher 3, but not of Overwatch. I don't know, the game style never truly appealed to me and I was never interested in it. I never got hooked, since all I could see was a bit of fan service every time one of the female characters show up on screen. The price isn't very attractive too; $40...

    Last Game Played?

    I've been thinking about getting that game, so I'll probably get it on sale because of what you said. It was either Firewatch or the Forest, but since I couldn't afford both I had to pick just one. From what I've read Firewatch is just a walking simulator though? And how's the FOV and head bob...

    What for you is the cutest character?

    I hate Pikachu actually. He's just too overpowered. You can't beat everyone with a lightning attack, dammit! It's the go-to end-all move in the TV show. You're losing? Pikachu, use thunderbolt! Gym leader has you cornered? Pikachu, thunderbolt! It's repetitive, and they win with Pikachu most of...

    What for you is the cutest character?

    I thought Raichu was pretty badass. The only problem I have is that it won't learn new skills anymore when you evolve it, so you're basically wasting his potential. For Pokemon I think Squirtle is pretty adorable. The first starters, really. They were kinda built as mascots so it's only natural...

    What for you is the cutest character?

    I remember this game. Too bad you had to kill them and get jelly (?) for loot. That was weird. I loved playing the offline version of this game because the online one had you charged for time spent in it. Like, you had to pay for the computer, the internet, the game, then you have to pay for the...

    Last Game Played?

    I hear a lot of good things about that game. When I took a look at it it's just pixels and like a 2D Minecraft game. What's so good about it? Can you sell me on the game? I get building stuff in 3D since that would be an incredible feat of patience and coordination, but to make stuff in 2D isn't...

    WHY do you game?

    I tried an MMO for the sole purpose of meeting new people and making friends. I got Elder Scrolls Online (since I was a fan of Skyrim) to try and meet people, but everyone seemed to just keep running around and doing quests, nobody talks to anybody but the NPCs. It was a weird feeling, like...

    WHY do you game?

    I think I gave up on the "professional gamer" route when I turned 25. I read that at 25, most pros already retire and move on with their lives. I think I may have missed that window because I was too damn busy in college to try out Dota 2 or CSGO. Oh well, at least I have other games to waste my...

    WHY do you game?

    Not only the role playing aspects; I live in the city and all I see are buildings. In games, you see vast forests, icy regions, and you can even be inside a volcano. It's more of an environment change, and the soundtrack that come with these games and areas are amazing to listen to no matter...

    The New DOOM Is Going To Suck

    I get your point, but in games I never feel afraid when I have a gun with full ammo. It also helps too if I have armor and checkpoints. Resident Evil 7 was hell in the first area, especially if you are going for the challenge where you can only save THREE TIMES the entire game. I'll never be...

    The New DOOM Is Going To Suck

    I don't get why it's so scary. You have guns and ammo, right? It's a shoot-em-up game from the gameplay footage I've seen. Now Resident Evil 7, THAT is a scary game. You are unarmed the first part of the game and all you can do is hide from the homicidal maniacs that live in the house. Ammo is...

    The New DOOM Is Going To Suck

    I thought Doom 3 sucked. I played Doom 2 and it was awesome. You punched monsters to death (well, at least you tried). D3 was terrible, and long time fans agree. The new Doom is much more in tune with the old games, so that's good. It has 90% approval rating in Steam if I recall correctly. I'd...
