Honestly this is the age of PC gaming if you take into account of smartphones as well. In the 90's when computers weren't as cheap and as prevalent in households, consoles ruled because they were cheaper than getting a PC. Now in 2017 where a half decent computer can be purchased for about $400...

Social media does have a lot of pull with people who follow certain gaming personalities but to be frank they're just a small drop in the overall sea of what would make or break the success of a game per say. Take movie reviews for example. Sure there's lots of well known critics who do nothing...

Depends on the parent/grandparent. My dad for example is nearing 60 or so and he was in the height of the silicon valley revolution so he was really into computers and gaming back in the early 80's and whatnot. For him playing games on consoles isn't an issue whatsoever, just a matter of what he...

Yup in the Stardew bandwagon too. Got Grim Dawn I've been chipping away at as well. Weave D3 into the mix because I have friends who play now and then. I would be playing other stuff but time's of the essence to me so anything that's 30 minutes or less play time is all I can afford to play.

Discounts is the only way in my books. Work has me hopping around too much so to drop full price on something I won't touch for months or years depending because of my whacked scheduling- it's just a waste of money. The only exceptions is if it's something I really really want to collect and...

I'm cycling through 2 or 3 games depending on my mood. Generally I'll have bouts of MMO-itis where I need to get on for a month and play WoW with guildies for stupidly short dungeon runs. Most of the time right now I'm just playing low key non time intensive games since I'm constantly on call...

Nothing wrong with not wanting to spend time searching. I get that most people would rather not have to wait or do homework for past low prices, ect. For me it's just a personal thing of finances and whatnot. I only have so much on hand to blow through and cost vs use plays a huge part in final...

I know right? I don't see why we can't cross mog with other gear as long as it's within parameters. Plate would have the most variety of course and the system is there to allow it at the very base of its form since back in vanilla cloth was better than plate for paladin healers for example...

Wii's a gimmick but at least it worked. I avoid Xbox like the bloody plague. Had way too many frustrating run ins with the 360's BS red rings of death on 6 different consoles. (Return after return hell.) My brother wanted it and had to have it and I got stuck with dealing with customer support...

Well there's geography to take into account too. There was a study not too long ago about about people's gaming habits across the nation, the coasts and states with things to do and tolerable weather cycles typically tended to play more non time consuming/casual games. Coasts had far less people...

I don't have a huge wishlist but the issue is that I've seen these games go on sale for a lot lower than what was asked in this sale so I'm gonna sit back and wait. I'm in no hurry to get more games for my poor library that's rarely touched these days haha. Barely can get 30 minutes of time to...

Honestly I never liked playing with my younger brother. He may have played more games in bulk than I have just because he had way more free time than I ever did, but he's a huge sore loser. Any PvP game always had him in fits of rage because I always did better than he did. I stopped playing...

Initial play through of any game I don't bother cause it's fun learning stuff on my own and getting as far as I can on my own abilities. Second play through I'll do it for fun (single player). MMOs? Nah never had the desire to cheat whatsoever except to save time on leveling my millionth toon...

You can hide shoulders, helm, belt and cloaks now. Thank god. I think the only helms that look part decent are generally cloth stuff cause caps and cool circlets/tiaras now and then. The druid shoulders are the best in the game and are tolerable with the feathers and such. The belts were...

Actually WoW's community is tame compared to many MOBAs and FPS communities out there. In terms of overall it's middle of the pack with toxic players and attitude. It's gotten much better over the years since most of the playerbase has aged with the franchise. PvP is PvP it'll always attract a...
