    I use my laptop to play real time strategy games like starcraft, or just turn based rpg vaporware. I only use my desktop PC for modern games such as Witcher 3 or the new revamped Doom.

    What's your opinion of "Freemium" Mobile Games?

    Young mobile videogame developing Studios have to adopt a freemium scheme of business in order to please their stock market investors, a stock investor doesn't care for creative design or anything that we, the consumers, value, only wants a return of the investment even if the game is just a...

    At what age did you get your first console/PC?

    I think when I was 5 years old,got a generic famicom chinese imitation with 999 games included, although It was actually a cheap marketing gimmick since most of these games were hacked clones of tetris only just there to fill the gap. Indeed, a bit awkward that also my first experience with...

    Your first online game?

    My first experience with online game was with both Mu Online, Counter Strike,Gunbound and Rakion. Everybody on my classroom were playing these games, although counter strike and Tibia online were the most popular out there. Never played Tibia though, seems like a simplified ripoff of Ultima online.

    Do you think GTA V is too violent?

    Na, because gta violence is just typically over the top instead of realistic. Ragdoll models don't get dismembered and there are not more graphic violence than just blood spill, impact and explosions. The torture scene brought GTA violence to a different level though.

    Board Games

    Haha, does Mario Party or Sonic shuffle counts also eh?. I played a lot of LUDO and Monopoly in my childhood, but I was pretty much luck screwed in regards of dice toss and picking up cards. I rarely took over properties and was sent to jail several times. In a monopoly society, I'm an outcast :c.

    Is World of Warcraft addictive?

    WoW is a grindfest MMO, grinding is not as awful as korean lineage 2, but it is really a sponge that would soak up all your leisure hours, and will crave for moar :).

    Do you consider mobile games to be "gaming?"

    Every mobile game are technically videogames nevertheless. But I have issues with that digital cancer called "Freemium". True, I don't blame developers to try on taking a risk free marketing strategy to earn more money and satisfy those greedy bastards from the stock market, since they are the...

    What's a game you'd like to see remade?

    Agreed. Skies of Arcadia really deserves some love, is an unique japanese role playing game with outstanding atmosphere. The combat system gameplay was interesting but not its strongest asset, I think that merit goes to flying ship navigation and open world exploration capabilities.

    What is your favorite free-to-play game?

    So far, my favorite game is Tales of Maj'eyal, although the expansions are not free. Free to play doesn't necessarily mean free multiplayer online games, at least that is what I think. Anyway, Tales of Maj'eyal (ToMe) is a roguelike game that I have spent in there more than 100 hours, I never...

    Whats your Favourite Type of Game?

    My favorite kind of game are computer role playing games (CRPG), but only the good ones, like planescape torment, geneforge, Gothic I & II, classic Fallout, New Vegas, Divine Divinity, Baldur's gate etc. Every of them offers at least some focus into immersion and world reactivity, coupled with a...

    Steam Workshop

    I don't know. Last time I checked there was a selection of crappy non free mods for Skyrim. But I didn't delve too much into Steamshop offers, probably nowadays there are a ot of better options out there. Now in regards of modding, I did some very minor character aesthetic changes in the past...

    Losing Yourself (and Time) in the Game

    Ahh yes, several times I lost my notion of time while playing something. Recently, I remember pretty well how much hours I poured into geneforge I without even get up off my seat, like 6 to 8 hours.

    What video game console did you spend most of your childhood with?

    I wasn't poor but I grew up with a stingy father, He only bought me stuff to celebrate holidays, therefore I almost always asked for games and sometimes consoles. Therefore I sticked with my N64 and Playstation for longer when most people were already playing with GameCube, Xbox and Playstation...

    Have you ever made a game?

    I dabbled for a while with rpg maker and made a simple snake game with Python. That's all the experience I got with gaming. I want to move onto something more ambitious but I need to practice more and make a ton of crappy games to improve my ability.

    Is PC really master race?

    Beyond superior hardware, a computer offers a great array of possibilities that a videogame console don't. Decades ago, I was with videogame console side since my favorite franchises were exclusivities that only can be enjoyed through a certain console. Nowadays, gaming desktop consoles lost...

    What Series Do You Think Would Make a Good MMO?

    Yes, I can think of a plentyful number of series that ca in theory work as a MMO, even I think a talented and ambitious developer could make a good MMO out of a series. Pokémon is the first franchise I thought, we right now have something similar to a MMO with Poké GO for smartphones, but it...

    Do you spend money on gaming gear?

    The only reason to buy gaming gear is to solve ergonomics issues. If you're already O.K without it, purchasing that kind of gaming gear will not dramatically improve your perfomance. If you're competitive player, perhaps you will need a razer with an on the fly DPI switch to adjust it depending...

    Does Anyone Still Play This Game

    The only qualms I have that prevents me to enjoy the legend of Hack n' Slash are related to its Loot system. In order to make an optimal defined character with a specific item build, you need first to play the game with some boring class with far less demanding itemization such as a Summoner or...
