Introduce Yourself

[Katana]

Hi, I’m Katana. I always feel like my story is not so interesting until I tell it.

I got most of the education towards developing games in college, and even made a few student projects that turned out well. Since then, I’ve just been doing general web development, but I still play plenty of games on the side.

I do a number of personal projects in my own time. I did GMod/SFM machinima for quite a while, and I’m currently working on a personal “humor site” project on the side. I don’t play any specific games a whole lot anymore, but I’m a great TF2 player and I always have an eye out for local-multiplayer games, since I have a collection of 4 USB game controllers.

Hello! I am Diego, a mexican developer and media artist. I have been playing games since I was a kid, and some of my fondest, most emotional media experiences have been through games.

I have never been big on social gaming, but this community seems great and the article about the RPS communities made me eager to join. I hope to see you guys out there.

[Sir_Barett]

Just stopping by to say hi.

I’m Sir Barett. I had read the FrontPage for quite some time but didn’t made it to the forums until now.

There’s not much to say, I’m into gaming. Don’t think that’s a surprise on a site which talks about gaming ^^ These days you can find me often on the battlefields in WorldofTanks.

Oh and excuse me if my grammar is not correct, i’m no native speaker and still learning

[Loser]

Hello!
I’m Loser, an Aussie living in London. Moved here a few years ago, work in IT. Been reading the site for a few years and thought I should sign up to the forums.

In to gaming etc, although having left most of my mates in Australia I don’t have many to play with in this timezone, so haven’t hit up much multiplayer lately (also not enough time etc)

[reitrop]

Hi everyone! I’m here thanks to the community post on the RPS website, which I read for a few months now.

I won’t bother you with all the solo games I play, where here to play together. I regularly commit crimes on PAYDAY 1 & 2, shoot zombies in Killing Floor 2 and Left 4 Dead 2, sometimes drive fast in Sonic ASRT and Project CARS. Oh and as I see that RPS has a quite big community on this game, I might restart PlanetSide 2. Feel free to send invites if you are playing one of these games, even if I’m playing something else.

I just warn you that as English is not my first language, it might be hard to understand you all in voicechat, but hey! That’s a good challenge =D

[LucidCraft]

Hey everyone, I am LucidCraft and I have just decided to step into the world of PC gaming. I have been a gamer since I picked up my first controller which was for SEGA. Ever since gaming has always been a passion of mine. I eventually progressed as I got older to the Playstation and then to PS2, Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox one, and now here I am. I am currently active duty military in the USN. I have a bit to learn about PC gaming but I do believe I have got it down for the most part. My Computer is a MSI GE70 Apache Pro. I have recently fell in love with indie video games via steam but all the same still like to play big titles as well. Well that’s the basics of me!

I went outside today, but then turned back to go in again…Graphics…smh

[orel570]

Hi my name is orel. I have been playing games since I was a child so over 12 years. Currently I have been out of the loop.
I am playing this game called Goodgame empire. http://empire.goodgamestudios.com?ic=5N-2T9VT&w=199947 right now here is a link if you want to check it out.

I’m thinking of buying a new console but I am not sure if it is worth it with the current games on the new consoles.
I also play League of legends but not very good at it.
I am looking for good PC games if anyone has any suggestions

Hi.

I like video games. And I like playing video games with other people. And,- I like Rock, Paper, Shotgun. Hence my being here - two birds in one stone. I don’t imagine I’ll be very active around here, but who knows. Lurking’s not so bad.

[SenorPeligroso]

I’ve been reading RPS for a couple of years, and just started posting in the GW2 area - thought I should probably do one of those new-fangled intro things.

So yes! I play games. Especially MMORPGs, currently focusing on GW2 and FF14, but happy to give most things a shot.

[Mawning]

Hi! I’m Mawning an until recently lapsed long time PC gamer. Back in the fold now tho…

I have enjoyed a variety of games over the years and remember the time when PC games came with manuals you could prop tables up with and piracy involved copying charts and code wheels.

Most recently playing: Offworld Trading Company, Savage Lands & Killing Floor 2

[MrXuiryus]

Hi everyone! Just recently returned to PC gaming after a 3 year break. Built myself a brand-new gaming PC that can even run Arkham Knight (yes really!) I make game films for my youtube channel in my spare time and love talking about games in all aspects of the word.

Looking forward to being active on these forums and getting to know the community.

[Ted_Breakfast]

Yo. I mostly game here to look for some people to play a bit of DayZ with. I’ve just started playing and it seems like it would be a lot more fun with an accomplice or two. Hit me up if you’d like to play some time!

[MJH]

Hey guys, I’m Matt. I mainly game on my PC and my Steam hording collection is already past 170 games.

My steam username is MJHelliwell if anyone wants to check out my library - add me and we can play some games!

[ToaManaia]

Gamer living in the depths of far-flung New Zealand (NO I Am NOT A HOBBIT LOL)
Started gaming in the 1980’s on a cousins commodore 64 and became an Arcade junkie in the 1990’s. I was a big Streetfighter II, Mortal Kombat and Tekken fan. I also loved Samurai Showdown with a passion.

Interestingly I found that many arcade players could only specialize in one of those games but I am a swiss army knife sort of gamer and was more than competent across a variety of games with different mechanics etc. At times was pretty unstoppable in those games especially Mortal Kombat and Tekken. Still Love MK2 and 3 AND still adore Tekken 3.
Although now, fighting games have hit a level of crazy that I just cant be bothered with it. The genre is in a renaissance but I feel alienated by it, I believe that there are too many gimics and not enough fun to be had these days its more about fast fingers than surgical strikes like the good ole days lol.

First console I owned was a Sega Mega Drive (Genesis) and yes I had fighting games on that as well.
Next console was a XBOX and still remember the thrill of Halo and Star Wars KOTOR (not a fan of the Old Republic MMO sorry).
Still got my 360 but that gathers dust now as I use my laptop for gaming, current obsession is Smite…

I am an avid comic book reader and fan and also can wax lyrical on all comic book movies, but I love arthouse and international cinema as well.

Currently writing a novel which is taking up my life at the mo.

If any of you guys are on Smite just add me, my in game id is TaneIngoaKore… If you get to know me i can explain what that name actually means as it is in my native Language is Maori.

Can’t wait to get to know some new peeps…

Do You prefer the term Halfing?
Nice to meet you.
Are you playing anything other than Smite?

[pandiculator]

Hello!

My name is Scott, and I have been a regular reader and occasional comment-maker on RPS for a couple of years now, and finally noticed the ‘Forum’ button on the website today. Heh. I am a PC gaming enthusiast, but I think that goes with the territory.More interestingly, I am also an English teacher in the States. I enjoy long walks on the beach, friendly conversations about games, and providing insight where I am able.

I’m currently playing FFXIV with some other delightful chaps on the Midgardsormr server, and dabbling with ARK, Heroes of the Storm, and Elite. I’ve also been known to play Warframe, and applied at one point to the RPS clan, but was never added - not that I’ve been an active participant of that game in a couple of months, but that is how I tend to go!

Anyway, looking forward to getting to chatting with y’all, and maybe a game or seven!

Nice to meet you too mate.

Ha ha, some of my relations were extras for orcs, us Polynesian types have a habit of being tall and well built. SO in short I must be an Orc…LOL

Yeah OK in terms of games, single player games are “Shadow of Mordor” and “Arkham City” yes I know that City is old but I need to play through that one before I attempt Arkham Knight. Thats if the PC version can sort out its issues…

I kinda went off online games a year ago. I was playing DC Universe Online (Hey comic book stuff), Star Trek Online (Hey Sci Fi Stuff) solidly for 2 years and dabbled in Rift, Tera and Age of Wushu. But it was just too much. To get anywhere you need to sub (DC sub and star trek sub were too much to maintain) and my spare cash is low to non-existant so I gave up on the genre. Star Wars TOR just frustrated me as their f2p model wont even let you grind your way to anything good.

So I hid in single player world, untill a couple of months ago I came across Smite, a Moba of all things, the whole god angle had me hooked and I even managd to find some money to buy the God pack and away i’ve been. I have tried LoL but could not find my groove.

Smite and its 3rd person perspective has made me an addict, also the fact that you dont have to sub to get anywhere is cool for a penny pincher like me.

Anyway have been looking for another moba to run into, I may even be persuaded to jump back into the world of MMORPG if the right game and community (especially) can be found. I think I might have to finally join Steam…LOL

Do you have any recommendations mate? I’m open to any suggestions, was wondering if Blade and Soul could be it…
