[What video game character would you be?]

Samus Aran.

She rolls up into a ball, got an ultra cool space suit, got an energy cannon for an arm, what's not to love.

[Most compelling relationships in video games]

The Prince and Elika in Prince of Persia 2008.

[Favorite Search Engine]

I like Bing. I know the results aren't as accurate as Google's but the user experience is superior in my opinion.

[Gender?]

10 hours ago, o-o said:

I meant no offense; its just that usually there are way more males than females on forums and more specifically on gaming forums. At least the ones I'm active on.

Agreed, this generally is a true statement, at least in my experiences too.

[Have you ever cheated in any game?]

I've run cheat codes in GTA and COD games in the past. Are cheat codes considered cheating?

[Do you ever get bored of gaming?]

Bored of gaming? Are you kidding? With this lineup of upcoming games: RDR2, BF5, and FO76...not to mentioned Cyberpunk 2077 just around the corner! I don't think I'll get bored of gaming anytime soon.

[Favorite band of all time?]

I'd have to go with the Beatles.

[If you could have any superpower, what would that be?]

Shapeshifting. You could literally be anything you want.

How's everyone doing?

[Power going out while gaming?]

This has happened to me but it's super rare. Just gotta deal with the temporary inconvenience. 

[Tablet or phone for mobile gaming?]

It just depends on my surrounding environment.

Tablets having larger screens thus are more immersive but mobile devices are more practical due to portability.

[Social Media]

I use Facebook for Messenger as an alternative to texting but don't actually post or otherwise engagement on Facebook. That's it honestly.

[Which game(s) are you wanting for Christmas?]

Q4 is insanely stacked with releases of Black Ops 4, RDR2, Battlefield 5, and FO76...and others.

What games are you most looking forward to? What game(s) are you going to buy/hope are gifted to you for Christmas?

[PS5 Expectations]

It's inevitable, we will see the PS5 at some point. Hopefully sooner, rather than later. What features would you like to see on PS5? What are your expectations?

[Open world games and enemy variety problems]

This has become an issue since Skyrim I think where the enemies are mostly draugr.

Why are devs prioritizing big open worlds and filling it with very little enemy variety? I get that it cost money to make new skeletons/assets but so does creating landmass and new areas. I think we're at the point where open worlds are just too big for their own good. There needs to be a balance between exploring areas and then actually being excited about the mystery of what new enemy type awaits you there. 

This could also apply to loot. Make sure the loot you get is meaningful but that's for another thread. I think by just having a good amount enemy variety, it could potentially spice up a mediocre combat system. *Cough*

Are devs too focused on making their games bigger for the sake of marketing and losing sight of what makes a game fun?

[Can I jump from Yakuza 0 to Yakuza 6?]

So I randomly decided to get Yakuza 6 cause I remembered it had Takeshi Kitano in it. The only Yakuza I finished was Yakuza 0 when it came out last year. 

I also have Kiwami and Yakuza 3 on PS3, but I only played those for like an hour. Am I good to jump into 6? How much stuff will I miss out on?

[Hello everybody!]

Welcome!

[Most emotional moment in gaming]

Last of Us when his daughter died was fuckin rough.

Yeah I’ve probably gotten around 20 bucks from just CS

[The Word Association Game Thread]

Irritating
