[What brings you back to a game time and again?]

For me I often find myself going back to games that are easy to learn because I need something fun to do with friends or family. If I am bored one day, it is super easy to call friends over to come play games like Wii Sports or Mario Kart because these games do not need excessive prior knowledge to play. 

[What game that everyone loves could you just not get into?]

I always wanted to get into World of Warcraft but never really found the passion for it. When I was in middle school I remember it being super popular and all the kids were playing it. The game seems to have lost its popularity so I doubt I'll ever get into it now.

[Most crushing sacrifices you had to make in games?]

For me, it is games where you have to choose specific team members and leave others. For example, in Pokemon you can only have a certain number in your party. I always get a tad bit sad when I spend time training a Pokemon only to have to replace it with a stronger Pokemon later in the game. 

[Can gaming be a job?]

There are some very entertaining streamers out there that I find myself watching daily. The thing is, I would not be able to describe the perfect streamer to you. Sometimes streamers just click with you and it will be different for each person. That is why I think it is difficult to make it in the streaming world. You need to have some sort of special like-ability that comes naturally.

To be honest, all I used to do is just cuss under my breath when I was losing at a game but I never got that angry. I've literally seen people throw their TVs out because they're losing at a video game - ridiculous really.

Yep it's crazy the things people will take their anger out on. There are a few streamers with this sort of "angry personality" and they are always breaking their controllers and stuff like that. Personally I don't find these streamers very entertaining 😅

[How would VR need to change for you to get into it?]

I would want a VR game that would get me to continue playing. For example, I kind of want to get into VR to play those rollercoaster simulator games but I feel like after a few rounds of playing I would get bored. I don't know what type of game I am looking for exactly but something that would sustain me for years.

[What was the best era for online gaming?]

I am a fan of autochess games like Teamfight Tactics and so I would say now is the best era because these games are doing really well right now and are also growing at fast rates. However, I also miss the days when the Wii just came out.

[Do you find easter eggs in games on your own?]

Sometimes I will find one and not even know it was some sort of Easter egg! But yeah often times I will have to learn about it through a friend or the internet. Shoutout to the game developers for putting these Easter eggs into games! I always feel good after managing to find one. 🥚

[What do you think about the future of Pikmin?]

I feel as if the types of games that children gamers play nowadays has changed from when we were kids. I really wonder if Pikmin will be able to appeal to future generations. It seems as if future kids would prefer more battling-fighting-action type of games don't you think? 

[Has a PC game ever blew up your PC?]

I took a video game class in university a few years ago and I had to play Civilization. I only had my MacBook at the time and holy moly this game made my MacBook super loud and hot. It did not make it explode but I kind of thought it was going to haha. 

[What type of mouse do you use?]

My mouse has been lagging lately and it might be time for an upgrade. I'm wondering what type of mouse y'all use. Is it a special gaming mouse or a cheaper mouse? Wired or wireless? Black or bright in colour? I would love to see pics!

[Ubisoft Is Going All In On Pay To Win]

When I think of Ubisoft I think of Rocket League, Just Dance, and Rocksmith. But I am pretty sure none of these games are F2P games right? Honestly I cannot think of any F2P Ubisoft games right now off the top of my head... are they known for certain F2P games that I've never heard of or something???

[Most anyone has won so far?]

I follow League of Legends and I believe in 2016 the winning team (SKT) won about 2.5 million USD for their first place finish in the World Championships. LoL involves 5 main team players but the overall management has multiple coaches, back up players, etc. so I really wonder how much money the players individually received after their victory.

[Hardest lesson you ever learned gaming?]

I would say I learned to control my emotions better through gaming. As a kid, I would rage all the time. Sooner or later I realized that you cannot control the fact that others may be better than you at the game. All you can do is focus on improving your own skills and knowledge rather than get angry.

[Are you ever impressed by beta versions of games?]

Yes I am similar to you. There have been games where I have played the beta and was totally in love with something in it only to find out that in the final game version they modified or completely took out that aspect. They must have their reasons for doing so though I guess.

[Do you still have some of your old demo discs?]

I do have this one PS2 demo CD with the original Ratchet & Clank and Primal. As a matter of fact, it was this very same CD that got me to buy the full Ratchet & Clank game.

I had the same experience! Somehow I got the PS2 demo disc and kept playing it over and over. Eventually I got the full version as a gift. Such a fun game.

[What video game character would you elect as leader of your country?]

This is a great question! I would choose King K Rool because he is a king and I am hoping a king would be able to rule my country 😝. Or maybe Mario and Luigi could tag team as leaders haha.

[What sports games do you play but do not play the actual sport?]

I also have only been on a skateboard once, yet I played Tony Hawk games.  I mostly played them to see scenery and hear Rock and Metal music.  I've never been on a snowboard, but I sometimes play Cool Boarders 3.

Oooh that reminds me. I love playing Rockband and Guitar Hero but have never actually played a guitar or drums in my life. 

[What sports games do you play but do not play the actual sport?]

I used to love playing the NFL series on my Playstation but I have never played in an actual football match. I have heard that a lot of people play skateboarding games like Skate 3 but have never actually skateboarded. Does anyone here play a certain sports game but does not play the actual sport?

[Would you rather watch a championship tournament in an arena or at home?]

Let's say you had to pay to watch a championship game. Would you want to watch it in a hyped up arena or would you prefer watching it in the comfort of your own home? Personally I like the idea of cheering for my favourite team or player in an arena but I feel like at home I would be so comfortable and still get all the action.

[Why esports should be considered a sport?]

I am a big league of legends fan! I remember following one of the top teams a few years ago and the management made sure that the players were exercising to stay in their top physical AND mental states. They even had some sort of training facility. But yeah I agree that esports should be considered a sport in some way.

[things you regretted doing as a kid when gaming]

There was a time where it was super easy to scam other players in the MMO Maplestory. It was a trading scam to get others to trade you their best items in exchange for nothing of yours. I regret scamming others and getting scammed myself 😅

[9 Video Games With The BEST Glitches!]

Those are interesting glitches haha. I personally am a big fan of glitches in the Skate 3 video game. There is something called the "speed glitch" in which you can make your skater go super fast and therefore allow you to do huge jumps and tricks in the game.

[Do you have a “default” video game?]

My default game right now is Teamfight Tactics. As a kid it was Pokemon and then it sort of turned into Maplestory before becoming TFT. Pretty interesting how people seem to have one default comfort game that they always go to when needed.

[10 WORST PS4 Games of All Time]

Awww poor Ghostbusters! Such a great movie had to be turned into such a crappy game 😭. Also yes that Duck Dynasty game was so bad! On the other hand, I did not find that Pro Skater 5 to be that bad but when I played it as a kid all I did was do random tricks so what do I know lol.
