  1. The important stuff, yes. But honestly... probably not as often as I probably should!
  2. Very impressive stuff... that Great Hall is mesmerising. As a Minecraft fan and a Harry Potter fan, I'll simply have to check this out!
  3. As long as the franchise remains popular, then yes, it'd make complete sense to give it another go. I imagine the folks at HBO will be well aware of this - and if they can make money by licensing the rights to game developers, then they will.
  4. Honestly, in Crusader Kings games, I feel a bit bad about killing Viking raiders. I have a Norwegian grandmother, so that could be my ancestors that I'm slaying!
  5. Sometimes. This occasionally happened in The Talos Priciple, where you had bonus objectives that could be achieved by combining parts of multiple puzzle chambers. I'd occasionally find a later part of the solution before an earlier one!
  6. Since I don't need my phone for anything other than internet, I can get one for under £200 that meets all my needs. Right now, I'm using a Samsung Galaxy A21s that cost around £170 when I got it at the end of last year.
  7. Welcome aboard, Woody! I hope you enjoy this place - and, best of luck with your channel 🙂 .

    Last Game Played

    Mini Metro. I used to be pretty good at it (had some games where I was close to 2000 points)... but today, I couldn't even crack 500. Clearly, I'm out of practice!
  9. Depends a bit on the game. If it's something fast-paced that requires my full attention (for example, speed chess), then I will of course focus 100% on that - but if it's a slower-paced game (like a [i]Civlization[/i] game), then I might chat whilst playing that.

  11. Not my computer screen, but I did once wreck my phone screen by dropping it in the bathroom. I just had to get a new phone, because repairing it would have cost more than the phone was worth. I use a case now!

    Last Game Played

    The Sims 4 (again)... it's getting a bit irritating, because my Sims just aren't doing what they're told >_< . Maybe I'll have to find some way to get back at them :P .

    I don't see this one in here, so apologies if it's already been posted, but:
  14. Not really... my city is quite small (around 120,000 people), and quite economically well off, so it doesn't have a whole lot of crime (even in the poorer areas). As for whether I'd go to such a neighbourhood... only if I had a very good reason to!
  15. Dark Souls - so that if I'm ever buried alive, I'll have an immense challenge to keep me occupied while I wait to either be rescued or just die for real 😛 .
  16. I would say that it counts as a 'puzzle' if it has these two things: 1. A test of one's logic skills, and; 2. A definite goal or solution. I was going to say "a definite solution" (like some other people here) - but actually, I think that's a little bit restrictive. For example, the levels in Infinifactory don't have one single 'right' solution: each chamber can be solved in many different ways, and it's up to you to invent a solution (and then, if you want, try and optimise it). I'd still classify it as a puzzle game, though!
  17. Depends how much I want it. If it's something I really want (like a new Civilization game), then I'll get it at full price on day one (or even pre-order it). However, if it's something I don't mind waiting for, then I'll usually wait a year or so.
  18. Flashing their headlights to let you go at a junction. If you want to be helpful as a driver, then don't be nice: be predictable!

    Ask Kyng

    Probably when I found out I'd got a First Class Master's degree from university 😄 . That was very difficult, but very rewarding in the end!!!

    Lego Games

    Yes, they certainly affected my childhood! Off the top of my head, here are the ones I had: - LEGO Island - LEGO Chess - LEGO Racers - LEGO Rock Raiders - Legoland - LEGO Stunt Rally - LEGO Alpha Team - LEGO Racers 2 - Football Mania - Bionicle Heroes Of these, LEGO Racers was probably the most successful of the bunch: I still play it occasionally now, over 20 years later. But I think Legoland also helped me get into Roller Coaster Tycoon a bit further down the line!
  21. The very first family computer we had was in 1995. Was pretty mind-blowing at the time, but it only had a 100MHz processor, and it wasn't even connected to the internet! However, the first computer I owned was a Toshiba laptop that I got in 2009. I actually acquired it through a university grant... wasn't the best computer (and it was particularly lacking in hard drive space, with only 65GB), but other than that, it did the job 🙂 .
  22. Yeah, sometimes I do. Especially when I have the light off, and the room is lit only by my monitor... it usually makes the game more atmospheric, when there's absolutely nothing else around to distract my senses from it (and if anything, the surrounding darkness only [i]adds[/i] to the suspense!)
  23. Another one I've never seen is Avatar. I know, there can't be many people left who haven't seen it - but, it just wasn't on my "must-watch" list at the time. I was kinda curious about the 3D, but that was the only thing drawing me to it (and on its own, it just wasn't enough to convince me to go and see it).
