Introduce Yourself

[ImperiusDamian]

Hello! My name is Alice.

I grew up with the Genesis instead of the Nintendo (yes I know I’m dating myself). Everyone was talking about Mario, but I had Sonic. Also, my parents never bought me any games, so I would replay the same game over and over again, trying to beat my previous time. This habit is still with me today as I “play the heck” out of a game before moving on.

My friends hooked me up with games: Doom, Sid Meier’s Civilization, Half-Life, Final Fantasy 7 and 8, etc etc and have made me a lifelong gamer.

Right now, I am now a game developer and a composer. I’m no expert, but if you guys have any questions feel free to ping me. =D

Hi Alice!

Programming is my (sort of) forte, although Diablo II mods are the furthest I’ve waded into the murky waters of game development. Wouldn’t mind learning to swim though!

[Camelot1994]

Hi. I am Edward and I am a gamer since my childhood (7 or 8 years old). Now I am 20 and I study at an university. I mainly play strategy games and RPGs, but also some FPS’ (was a huge fan of CoD:MW 2 and have over 600 hours in multiplayer there; also own BF3 and BF4). Currently I play Divinity: Original Sin, which is an absolutely brilliant game (wouldn’t mind to play it in co-op but sadly I don’t have friends who own the game). I also played CivBE and Civ5 recently. Now I want to play Far Cry 4 in single player but it’s too expensive for now, so I might wait a few month for the price to come down.

I joined the forum because I hoped to find friends here with similar tastes for games. Since most of my friends only play dota 2, I am always looking for people to play strategy games and RPGs with (and maybe even chat or something =) ). So message me please, if you want to play Divinity in co-op, for example.

Hello everyone!

My name is Tommy and I live in the country of Sweden, which is (countrary to belief) not filled with polar bears. But I do like to eat blood pudding though… And Djungelvrål.

I am a YouTuber with over 300 videos and way too few subscribers considering how much time and effort I put into them, struggling to one day beat PewDiePie’s subscriber amount (I know, it won’t happen…) and I found this forum when searching for “Gaming Forum” on Google so… Well… Here I am!

Been gaming a lot so my channel is a lot about gaming, but contains other things as well. Got my first NES when I was 7 years old and now I am 31 so it’s been a while. Since then I’ve gotten my hands on a SNES, N64, GameCube, Wii, Wiiu, Xbox 360, Sega Saturn, Nintendo DS, a Super Game Boy and a few Game & Watch games.

If you count my PC’s I’ve got three of those as well. First this “super computer” I am sitting on now which I also edit my movies on, an older one I mostly lend my friends when they visit, and a really old one using a Voodoo 2 card and windows 95. It’s that old… I don’t use it anymore but it still works, oddly enough, even though the fan sounds like someone using a chainsaw… xD

I am working as a waiter on a Pizza Hut restaurant somewhere in this beautiful country and I have a corn snake as well as a budgerigar, who do not share the same cage for some reason.

So yes, I love animals too.

Lately I’ve been traveling to gaming / cosplay conventions to record the people with their costumes as well and interviewing game developers and things like that.

So I guess that’s it…

I like most kinds of games but I have a hard time with strategy and sport games. I am more of a FPS, RPG, Platform kind of guy. And Goat Simulator. Whatever category that would fit into

Been playing EverQuest II for a few years as well despite the many flaws in the game engine and I also play Planet Calypso from time to time.

And I love horror games and horror movies! Doing Evil Within right now on the 360…

I am rounding this post up now, so hello everyone, and I hope you welcome this youtuber with your open arms.

(But promise you’ve showered before hugging me…)

I have a foot.

Holy moly, an RPS forum!

Name’s Tom, let’s be steam friends. I play all kinds of everything but don’t have anyone to enjoy all kinds of everything with. RPS readers sound like as great a place as any to find some friends.

I’m Sabby787 in Steam/Origin/etc.

Cheers

[TWChristine]

@Sabby: I just noticed your “profile picture”, and I absolutely love Vonnegut. And it just occurred to me that perhaps you chose the picture because you simply like the saying. So either/or, perhaps it would be best if waves hands …I wasn’t here at alllllll…

[shinygerbil]

OK, so, long time reader first time poster etc.

Occasionally post on the frontpage too.

Find myself with less and less time to play games as I get older but my current obsessions are:

NEO Scavenger
Crypt of the NecroDancer
Hearthstone (after a lengthy time having broken free of its clutches)
Scrolls of the younger kind
The Endless games
Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- (which is only for the sony-toys, but is one of the better fighting games out there)
…and for some reason, Godus on Android. (whyyy)

[HailtotheQueen]

My name is Rachel but I am known online as HailtotheQueen or my old name, ViXeN. I am a hardcore gamer and blogger. I have been playing FPS games competitively since I was a kid and have been one of the top players on quite a few of them. I have also been in over 30 competitive clans, including a few tournament-level teams. I am mostly a PC gamer but I did play a few games on the XBOX 360.

Other than my skill level, I am known for my love of trash-talk, being very outspoken, and of course, feasting on the tears of certain sexist imbeciles in the gaming community. Yes, there is nothing quite like listening to these people scream incoherently at me in voice chat as I demolish them in whatever game we happen to be playing. ;O)

Oh, my most recent game is Planetside 2 but there are quite a few I am looking forward to, such as overwatch, battlefield hardline (if they don’t mess it up) and evolve.

[epickairu]

hey I’m kyle. I accidently wrote my name as skype just then. I play video games, make youtube videos and procrastinate on the internet. I love horror games and strategy games mostly. I hate five nights at freddies xD My youtube name is epickairu too as is my twitter, feel free to message me any time ^^

[thischarmingman]

Oh, I got it wrong and said HI in another thread. Sorry, I’ll try to do it right:
Hi! I recently started playing games again, after stumbling across RPS. I’ve enjoyed reading a lot of the articles, they really lit my desire to play computer games again.
I’m on a mac now, but it’s not as bad as it sounds. A lot of games are cross platform these days.
Old time favorites were Day of the Tentacle and BioForge (what a game that was!) - these days I’m enjoying Endless Legend and SpaceChem, based on RPS-praise. So, thank you!

[CptHerpDerp]

Morning everyone!

Just saying a quick hello - been reading RPS for nearly two years now and decided to finally get involved with the forums properly. Currently playing a plethora of different games but then who isn’t!

28 year old male, from Kent, England. Looking forward to chatting to you all

[fliptheflop]

Im broseph and I spent too much time shooting guns, weight lifting, and checking out the babes. lol

[Nerd_House]

Hi. New to these forums and to RPS as well, I guess. Was suggested to come here when I posted about a gaming forum on another forum.

I go by Nerd House online, but my real name is Michael. I am very active on Steam, with over 1450 games on my account. I also write detailed reviews and manage my own Steam Curator Group. I am semi-active on YouTube, but I am still in the “setting up” stages of my channel. I have a partial Let’s Play uploaded (just gameplay, no commentary), with many more planned.

[jtron]

Hi! Jesse, 38, Chicago. I do whatever DJ/VJ/AV/design work people will pay me to do.

While most of my gaming time is taken up with pinball (recently discovered the competition scene; I’m in twoleaguesthis season) I also play stuff on my laptop, 3DS, phone, and PS3. I’ve probably sunk more hours into Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup and Crusader Kings II than anything else but lately also have been playing DreamQuest, Pinball Arcade (of course), Final Fantasy V, Galaxy Trucker, and Rune Factory IV.

Dunno if there’s that many other readers here in Chicago, but I’ve been thinking about bringing a PC with local multiplayer games to our next DJ gig for playing on a projector. Stuff like Nidhogg, Gang Beasts, Skullgirls…

[GanksterOk]

Hey, I’m Ok. Nice to meet everyone! I play a game called 7 Days to Die. You may or may not have heard of it. It is a zombie/crafting/survival game. It’s set in an open world with randomly generated towns and resources. It’s really fun and if any of you play it would be fun to play together.

My cousin and I host our own server in Chicago, IL called the Gankster Squad and are looking for more people to survive the hordes with haha. We usually have 10+ survivors on at most times of the day so there’s always people to play with if you get on. We setup our own website, a forums, and a public teamspeak for everyone to use and be able to communicate with. If you play 7 days to die then definitely come play with us.

Server IP= 98.253.19.212
Port= 26900

Teamspeak IP= 98.253.19.212

You can check out our website here http://GanksterSquad.com

[Sharkwald]

Hello!

I’m Owen and I live in Glasgow. I got a new PC just before Christmas and I’ve surprised myself by finding the time to play a few online games (I have a young child, so any kind of regular gaming hasn’t been a possibility for a few years), mainly Hearthstone and Heroes of the Storm – I’m a recovering WoW addict, 5 years clean.

I’m also getting into boardgames, so if anyone is thinking of a social meet up for drinks and a few dice in the Glasgow area, do let me know.

[berger]

Hello, I’m berger, just joined this forum

[Theo]

Hey gang, realised I’d never done one of these.

I’m Theo, a Norwegian living in Edinburgh. At the moment I’m mainly playing SC2 (just starting to dabble with the pvp, although I am far too slow and old for this game), and getting back into GW2 on a casual basis. Been playing a bit of Heroes of the Storm as well, but can’t decide whether I like it all that much.
