My name is Katerina and i'm a 26 yo gal from Greece! I currently working as a realtor and secretery for constructions and a video game journalist. Yeah I know totally unrelated hahahaha If you want any video game recomendations you can hit me up! People say I'm the best at this sort of stuff :D Nice to meet you all!

Welcome Jimmy!

Hey Scott! Glad to have you here, come join us on threads and sure your gaming experience with the community ;)

This forum is spreading fast, time to get to know each other. How's your summer going so far guys?

I've just finished all 7 seasons of Suits and I can say that I'm amazed. TV series never make me cry, especially ones with lawyers and politicians. However, Suits was spotless even if I didn't know half of the things the characters talked about. The next season starts this week! Anyone else excited??

It's been 10 years but it's still my favorite album!

I believe that linear games are destined for people that just want to finish the story. I prefer open-world games even though I tend to be lost in them. Needlessly big maps with no density are a pain though and I usually drop those. I feel that the silver lining is somewhere between a 10-15 hours of story alone, spread in an open world with side activities, no more than that though. Something like God of War or Horizon Zero Dawn. The only game that can turn the tide is the next Elder Scrolls :D Cant wait!

I get what you're saying :D You really got me into starting it again. Hate it when it happens once per year haahahahah

For me it's the Sea of Ghosts. But not any version of it. I love being there at night and just stare at the Northern lights when possible. They may be visible from all over the map but there's something about this place that is breathtaking and eerie at the same time.

So, the time of my life to choose my first home console has come. I've been a PC gamer since forever but now I've been bouncing back and forth about getting a new GPU or a console. I've come to the decision of getting a console since my GPU can hold for a while longer. However, I'm torn between the two competitors... Do I choose Playstation 4 since it has the biggest lineup of amazing exclusive titles (i want to try TLOU, Bloodborne, Quantic games and God of War) or do I go over to Xbox One and save my self the struggle of buying games constantly with the Xbox Game Pass? Which do you think is the best?

This is something I've argued with a lot of people about. Everyone seems to be reasoning with Sony not allowing crossplay on Playstation 4 but in my opinion it is incredibly fan-hating. Ok, it's a big company and wants to profit out of their work but why not give players the opportunity to play with friends? As a Switch owner it pains me that I can't play with my PS4 friends and I has ruined the image of the company for me. Since the former CEO said that money is the reason behind Sony's decision I hold a grudge against them. Do you feel "cheated" too?

Yeah I know, they're really different. However, they release with just a few days between them and they're both FPS flagships that launch with battle royale modes. Which will you buy and why?

Get a taste 😄

Hmmmm... Tough one! I've played almost all major MMOs even though I'm not into them. I just like creating characters and grind a few days to see the armor sets and such. However, the only MMO that I never felt alone and managed to have a good time with other players was Tera. Dungeons are fun with other players and their super eager to pop up some major buffs for you and help you out in your time of need. I even remember one time that someone posted on World chat that all Elin characters (little girl-like characters) should meet up at a certain place and dance all together for fun. There were more than 100 Elins at this place all dancing and singing and other players just stood there and watched without messing up with the "event". Beautiful!

Death Stranding and Fallout 76. I'm at this stage of hype that I'm constantly checking forums and tear up over their trailers. If someone told me that I could play both of them for a month but then could never play a game in my whole life I'd be like "yeah I'll take it, bring them on" 😄

I feel you 😄 If I decide to buy something it will be something old that I wanted to buy for a long time. whenever I want to check out recent releases I check news, reviews, youtube and twitch so I won't feel left out hahahaha There's so many titles releasing that noone in his right mind could afford or have time to play all of them. 😄

I refunded some games on Steam 2 years ago during Summer sales. Valve has just had announced the 15day refund program and I kind of abused it by refunding games I never played to buy something during sales. Amazingly, it worked! I got refunded $40 for 7 different games in JUST 2 DAYS and bought MGS V Ground Zeroes, FTL and Fallout 4. I loved all of them. Money well refunded 😄

That might be the first FIFA title that i'm going to buy. EA has made the right call to grab Champions and Europa leagues from Konami. Can't wait to see what they do with them!

I want to finish Ni No Kuni as well but damn that thing needs soooo much time 😞 What an incredible and so little time 😞

Let's look at some popular VS Battles in the video game industry. Battle Royale titles are possibly the most loved game genre right now. Which do you choose though and why? I'll go with Fortnite since Epic Games is doing some serious work in keeping the game updated and fun while PUBG was a bubble that bursted imo.

Depends on what you're playing on. I'm a huge digital copy fan but when I got my first console I realized that it doesn't work there as well. So I would go Digital for PC and Physical on consoles (especially if it's the Switch that you must own countless SD cards to fit all those digital downloads).

One thing I loved doing in Fallout 4 and everyone made fun of me about is rebuilding all tiny settlements. I remember spending 4 hours reclaiming that old parking lot and I've been frustrated over the fact that there was a single corpse on the ground that just WOULDN'T GET CLEANED. Man I miss that game 😄

Over the past two years, I've been trying to create my legacy B-) to put it in simple words, I'm building a huge Steam library. I'm buying all sorts of indie games and bundles all over the web, but lately, I've come to the realization that it now looks like a beautiful bowl full of rotten rice. Is anyone else addicted to buying games they won't play just to make their libraries bigger? I'm currently at 800 titles on Steam and I think I'll give up reaching 1000 😄

Have you seen that? We knew that Fortnite was succesful and is topping one revenue record after another but... $8 million prize pool? That's a huge step for games of its caliber. Can PUBG and Realm Royale compete to that?

This is value for money, both must have titles!! Consider yourselves served. https://www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/bayonetta-plus-vanquish-pack
