[How do you handle difficulty spikes?]

Difficulty makes the game much more worth it, so I don’t quit when it happens. I can take a break from the game and engage in other activities. By the time I’m back to it I’m with a fresher perspective. 
But if it is proving too hard, then I’ll pass. 

[Has in-game chat online put you off using it?]

Game chats can make the game much more interesting, provided it is not abused. Imagine the banter chats that you could be having. But once I discover that the other person is causing nuisance with it, I disable it. 

[Do you report cheaters?]

There is nothing to report. Humans try to find the easier way out of a lot of challenges, not only gaming. Bypasses will definitely exist, no matter how much it is frowned at. 

[Scariest game you've ever played?]

Silent hill. Though I have never played it, but I witnessed friends do. Scary games are not my thing, the last thing I want is a game I’m playing giving me chills. 

[Anyone feel they are a worse-than-average gamer?]

I do know that I am not a seasoned gamer. When the gurus start talking about gaming, I feel like I don’t know much. So I can say I am intermediate, not a pro gamer but not a novice too. 

[Are games too easy/generalized now?]

Actually many games these days have become more mainstream and less challenging. But on the brighter side, it also means that more people can enjoy gaming. 

[AI; Do you really see it displacing the majority of human jobs?]

This has been a really controversial topic. It cannot be denied that a lot of jobs have been lost to machines. But many still argue that AI cannot replace humans where it matters the most. 
The other day I saw a signboard in a construction site that says: “Hey chatgpt, can you complete this building?”

It was used to buttress the fact that many skills can still not be replaced by machines. 

[Has becoming an adult changed your gaming habits?]

Have you been affected by responsibilities and bills, such that there is a considerable gap between your gaming as an adult and as a teenager? 
Apart from responsibilities, I also discovered that there are some genres I enjoy more as an adult. So the perk of it is that I get to dedicate the time I have to enjoy these games more. 

[Longer or shorter games, which one do you prefer?]

I can have a really short attention span, especially for the single player games. I can play for minutes intermittently than sit down for hours. This mostly makes me opt for the shorter games, that I can finish in half an hour at most. 
But I can come back some hours later and pick up another. 
Would you rather play long hours at a stretch or intermittently? 

 

[What console did you start gaming with?]

In the picture contains different consoles and the year they were released. I started with 94 PlayStation, though I knew about the NES and SEGA consoles. 
What console did you start gaming with?

[What would you do if there was no video games?]

Try to imagine a world without games, what do you think you will do? 
Of course it won’t feel as if we are missing anything, we never had it. 
For me, I would be more of a reader. I read a lot presently, so it will most probably be what would substitute gaming. 
 

If there were no games, what would you do? 

[The Fate of Radio Stations: Will They Eventually Fade Away?]

I’m afraid it will eventually fade away. The way we tune in to radio stations has reduced significantly compared to say, 10 years ago. And this will continue until a generation don’t even know what we call radio stations anymore. 

[Favorite Song Lyrics: Where Do You Find Them?]

I just type the song on google. The first response at the top is always the lyrics, and I screenshot it for future reference. But often time Spotify also put the lyrics in the songs, but if not then google to the rescue. 

[What Kind of Music Makes You Relax?]

I like the Indie folk genre, that is why I’m a fan of passenger. Before I sleep in the night I listen to the cool low beat and slow rhythmic songs to put me to sleep. It helps relives me and I get a good sleep. 

[Has streaming killed movie theaters?]

I won’t really say it has killed it, but it has surely reduced their revenue. There are many people like me though that always desire that cinema experience. Nothing can substitute it, so it will always be in business. 

[Eternal Laughter: What Movie, Picture, or Video Never Fails to Make You Laugh?]

The friends series. The actors really killed the role. Chandler and Joey are born comedians, I always laugh my intestines out when I watch! In fact I have various clips of them on my phone that I watch every now and then. 

[Animated Movies: For All Ages or Just Kids?]

Adults watch anime, they are not just for kids. The story behind most of them these days are even beyond the intellectual level of kids. 
We all have what gives us the ultimate entertainment experience. Whatever rocks anyone’s boat. 

[Wired Vs Wireless Earphones]

Wireless earphones are more comfortable for me than the wired. When I am playing games or when I go for a run, I experience more convenience since I am not disturbed by wires. 

[Technology's Ethical Tightrope: What Technology-Related Ethical Dilemma Concerns You The Most?]

Out of what you listed, what has been a major concern is AI overtaking human jobs. The other day while watching NatGeo wild, it was stated that the coverage of the wild was done by drones. 
About 10 years ago, mini plane pilots and camera men were employed. 
This is just an example of how humans are losing jobs to AI. 

[We love technology more than each other]

I won’t really say we love it more than each other, we have just allows it to become an integral aspect of our lives. Although the social time we spend with one another has reduced, this does not undermine our relationship in such way. 
Technology cannot replace or have that kind of impact on human feelings, highly impossible. 

[Reflecting on the Downsides: How has Modern Tech Negatively Impacted Our Lives?]

Our social lives have suffered! Today we have lots of people that find it hard to say hello to someone on the street. They find it hard to hold a conversation, due to modern technology. Many would rather stay on their PC and dissociate themselves from the real world. 
This is a growing menace, I’m afraid. 

[The Impact of Technology on Language Learning]

If you go online now you will see hundreds of apps and websites that teach people various languages they are interested in. I have a class I am taking now where I am learning French. This bus the impact of technology on language learning. 

[Leveraging Technology to Tackle Global Issues]

Technology makes it easy to reach everyone globally. So it can help spread the awareness of certain dangers and threats and how to deal with these dangers. It can be used to communicate practical solutions to problems, which would not be possible without technology. 

[Should Mobile Phones Be Restricted in Specific Locations?]

Many people have not experienced the danger of using mobile devices in the filling station, so they have no idea. A big and clear sign should be placed there so that people won’t have to experience it before they know. 

[Which gadget do you use most?]

I use my smartphone more, which is understandable. I take it wherever I go, I cannot do that with my other devices. Not even my tablet. I rarely watch movies, if I want to I do so on my laptop. So it’s smartphone.
