    How often do you get stuck (can't figure out how to continue) in games?

    It seems like it can almost be an incredibly trivial thing that trips me up at points. I blasted through Bioshock Infinite on my playthrough last year, but then booted up Burial at Sea part 2 and could not figure out what to do for the life of me at first. The issue of "game design v. player...

    Are you wired or wireless?

    Wired on just about everything except some HyperX Cloud Flights that I forget to charge so often that they may as well just be wired.

    Your thoughts on: "Students don't know what files and folders are, professors say" (PC Gamer Article)

    There's a clear divide between the way PC usage was taught to students ten years ago versus now. The ways in which Windows and other OS's have "streamlined" the process of computer usage is the real core here. If a kid grew up on OSX and then switched to Windows 10 - or mainly used Android or...

    Condolences, man. Mother is a total Bejeweled addict, so I identify.

    What's your favorite TV show of all time?

    Thanks to streaming, it feels like TV shows have been all that anyone can talk about online. And I've seen this debate everywhere on the web - what's the best TV show ever? I'm talking anything that aired on either TV or streaming networks. Doesn't matter the genre. For a while, my answer was...

    Question PC who restart itself.

    My immediate gut instinct is to go to PSU failure when it comes to random shutdowns - but more info could help nail it down. Editing quick to say: is anything overclocked?

    Question What's your all-time favorite roguelite/roguelike?

    Grabbed Into the Breach free on Epic and haven't launched it yet. HDD recently just died so as soon as I swap it I'm installing it and giving it a go. One friend of mine is absolutely begging all of us to play it, so it may actually be a toss up.

    How crazy are you about your frames per second?

    I've never truly worried about my FPS if it's not getting in the way of the game itself. I have a few friends I talk to online, and they genuinely get irritated when they see the game dip to 60 - which in a way makes sense if you have crazy hardware, but I've never thought of it as just so...

    What was the first video game you remember playing?

    CS 1.6 is definitely one of the first games I ever saw with my own eyes - my step brother loved it. Oh man, what an intro.

    Question What's your all-time favorite roguelite/roguelike?

    Oh man, how did I forget about ROR2. Maybe the one bright spot of quarantine was that game soaking up all my time. Great game.

    Question What's your all-time favorite roguelite/roguelike?

    Simple as the question says: what's your all time favorite roguelite/roguelike? It's a genre that's been very dear to my heart since I picked up The Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb when it was the latest version. I've fallen away a bit from it but it always tempts me back. I'm inclined to...

    What is the most realistic shooting game on PC?

    Always thought I was nuts for this when my friends played it. It's super realistic but everything about it just seems so tedious to me.

    The Free Time Limited Games List

    Snagged both of these and I'm hype about it. Really wanna play Yooka-Laylee post-hype and Rare discourse and Void Bastards has always looked super appealing.
