    Windows 7 or Windows 10?

    I've had Windows 7 on my desktop ever since I got in back in 2011, and it's the operating system I've come to know the best. I'm building a new PC currently, and I'm probably going just upgrade to Windows 10 on it, but it hurts me to move away from the OS that I've come to know and love over the...

    Free games vs Paid games?

    I guess I prefer free and paid games equally, you could say. I think overall you'll get a better gaming experience from a paid game given the production value of it (not to mention I like to pay once for a game and be able to play it indefinitely, not have to buy every little thing inside the...

    Any experience when playing Torchlight II?

    Torchlight II has been on my list of games to get for a long while now. I've always had a soft sport for RPGs and dungeon crawlers every since I played the Dungeon Siege games, so it's always looked right up my alley. I'm curious like Gladdy, though. What's your experience with Torchlight so...

    Xayah and Rakan

    It's a really interesting concept because they have perks for playing together, but I've found that I really like Bard/Xayah combo. Bard's stun coupled with Xayah's E has the potential to leave the other team's ADC stunned for quite a while. It is kind of iron to see them playing separate from...

    What games do you currently play?

    I'm on a League of Legends kick as well. My roommate and I are duo partners, so we generally spend two or three nights away playing League competitively. Recently, with the release of Xayah and Rakan, we've been playing a good number of normal games to get the hang of our new champs. It's funny...

    Garry's Mod

    Garry's Mod is actually the game that got me into the Steam scene and PC gaming in general. My friend showed me Gmod back in middle school and I fell in love with it. Naturally, I purchased the Orange Box so I could have all the required textures and nonsense for Source to be able to run Gmod...

    Does Anyone Still Play Runescape?

    You have to start all over again? Well that alone would kill it for me. I was a relatively high level I'm pretty sure, and I wouldn't want to go through having to get myself back to the same level I was originally. That's a real shame.

    Favorite music from which game?

    No problem! That sucks that the ending of 3 was spoiled for you, I know that that can take the desire away from wanting to play it, for sure, especially since the third game had such a plot twist at the end. Definitely play the first two, aesthetically they're completely different than the...

    Favorite music from which game?

    I played the first two before they were remastered, and I personally loved them. The gameplay was fluid and fairly unique at the time (you could use tonics to give yourself weird abilities like shooting swarms of bees out of your arms) and I found the story to be really intriguing and atmosphere...

    Favorite music from which game?

    Great points! Something about the orchestral strings in the intense songs was really cool to listen to. Don't get me wrong, I don't listen to the Dead Space soundtrack strictly for fun, but to appreciate it for what it was. Every song serves a purpose in the game, just like you mention, and I...

    What I hate about pc gaming

    I was scared out of my mind when I tried to build my own computer in high school. I was afraid I'd buy all these parts and they wouldn't be compatible, or I'd build it wrong and fry my motherboard or whatever. So I went through a company in California and had them build my computer for me and...

    Have you meet LoL players in real life?

    I have many friends who play League, but I've never met someone through League first then met them in real life afterwards. I had a support player that I met and got along with so we played together for a couple of weeks, and it turned out he was going to college just a couple hours away from...

    Favorite music from which game?

    I don't mean to hijack your conversation, but speaking of horror game soundtracks, Dead Space's music really struck a chord with me when I played it years and years ago. It's equal parts eerie and intense, and it's a great listen, in my opinion. It really helped set the atmosphere of isolation...

    Favorite PC Game Genre?

    I've always been a huge fan of real time strategy games like Age of Empires and Stronghold Crusader. Castle and city-builder games have also ranked pretty highly on my list for a while as well. Something about building my own community and keeping it running in game is really cool to me. Along...

    Side quests

    I always try and do as many side quests as possible. My first real experience with side quests was in Oblivion. I did as many side quests as possible along the way before finishing the main story line. I like to have the option of deviating from the main story to take part in smaller quests that...

    Do you consider mobile games to be "gaming?"

    I've always been inclined to consider mobile gaming as "casual gaming", as it's something I've only ever done to pass the time. For me, mobile games aren't nearly as time consuming or demanding as PC or console games, so I've never really considered them as an outlet for "hardcore gaming"...

    Does Anyone Still Play Runescape?

    It's been a long while since I've played Runecape as well. Probably been since middle school for me, which would also have been about 2009-ish. I tried to log back in several months ago to see if my account was still active and see where I left off in the game. If I remember correctly, they...

    Your computer & gaming

    Gaming-wise, I'm happy with how my computer runs things. It'll play essentially any game that I want to currently, so I haven't had a desire to upgrade solely for gaming purposes. However, I do videography for a living and am getting into filmmaking and I've found that my machine can't handle...

    Headsets

    I never saw a need to invest a whole lot into a gaming headset, so I snagged a set of Turtle Beach headphones when they were on a good sale while I worked in retail. Definitely nice to have them when I game in the same room as my roommate sometimes, but they've never been a necessity for me. I...

    Sivir drawing

    I've never been a huge fan of Sivir as I don't find her toolkit or playstyle particularly appealing. Maybe it's the showoff Draven main in me, but that's just how I feel. Your drawing, however, is incredible! I think you've got a future with your artwork, that's for sure. You seem pretty young...
