I think the worst one was genuinely excited for Shadow the Hedgehog back in the day. As a kid, $60 for a game you realize is no fun by the second level is a really hard lesson.
On the board-gaming side, while I love the theme of Red Dragon Inn, I've now bought a near complete set that's seen play maybe once or twice.
Ogre Designer's Edition.
My games crowd is into A> cooperative gaming with B> 3-8 players and C> generally not into wargames. So I have a big (hugs) box of awesomeness and nobody to play it with.
New day, new question!
What youtube channels do you recommend people should check out?
No questions on Sundays from me, if someone else wants to post one, feel free.
If you're into computer games and people being silly, anything by the Yogscast. More specifically, if you're into tabletop gaming there's Tabletop Weekly, and if you like tabletop RPGs/DnD then try High Rollers (both are part of the Yogscast).
If you find cats amusing, check out Simon's Cat (funny cartoons of a cat doing stuff, based on the silly things real cats do).
If you like spoof versions of songs sung by characters from the Portal games, check out Harry101UK.
Hmm, I think that covers all the ones I regularly visit who still post videos every now and then...
For videogames:
Videogamedunkey
Penguin0 (aka: Critikal)
Arlo
BeatEmUps
OneyPlays
For Tabletop RPGs:
Puffin Forest
Zee Bashew
I'll add more later.
New day, new question!
Console or PC gaming?
PC gaming mostly, but I sure do like the switch!
Console gaming because it’s a more consistent experience.
PC forever - precise mouse movement and a keyboard, please! :D
PC
In all honesty, it really does depend on the game.
Like if I'm in a platforming mood, I'm going to choose console.
If I'm looking for almost any kind of online experience(MMOs and the like) then PC might be a better time.
RPGs? I like mine on handheld systems normaly, so if need be I can just pick it up and play at any point, filling up the tiny moments of my day that I'm waiting for something with glorious vidiya.
For SotM? Until Handelabra decides to put it on the Switch, it's strictly on the PC for me.
New day, but Matchstickman hasn't posted a question! So perhaps I shall...
Coffee or tea?
Tea but grudgingly.
Cold coffee, hot tea.
both!
Neither!
New day, new question!
How should I reward dprcooke for filling in for me yesterday?
A cookie
I got all spoilers I can.
If there is a recap on Tvtropes, I read it.
Why ? I dunno ... I guess ... I don't like surprise.
A reward? Ooh!
Well let’s see… I’m quite found of Yorkshire Tea, but I’ve got a good source for that here in Canada, and shipping from the UK would be expensive.
So maybe you could enjoy a nice cookie or biscuit on my behalf while consuming your non-coffee/non-tea beverage of choice?
Thank you dprcooke, I shall enjoy all the cookies for you!
New day, new question!
Is there a part of "geek culture" that you just don't get? For me it would be Game of Thrones, I don't see what is so great about yet another fantasy series.
