The first third of the gaming asks! >:) 💚
Makin’ me work! 3, 18 and 38 already answered. Thank you!
Gonna put this all under a cut.
Edit: I accidentally skipped 12.
1. First console you’ve ever owned?
First console that I was familiar with that family had was SNES. First I personally owned, bought myself, was a Gamecube.
2. First game you played?
I really wish I knew/could remember. My first rpg was Secret of Mana I believe, but there were other games before that. Probably something snes or commodore anyway.
4. Longest consecutive hours you’ve played a game?
4-5 probably.
5. Game with the best soundtrack?
Many! Oh man uhhh… Chrono Trigger, anything Falcom tends to be great. FFVI and IX.
6. An underrated game from within the last few years?
I’m never sure how under or over rated something is honestly. The Last Guardian? It’s more niche-y.
7. Most disappointing game you’ve played?
Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World. We never thought there’d be a sequel to ToS. I was so excited. I was let down.
8. The game with the best atmosphere/scenery?
I see these as two separate things. You could have great scenery but nothing particularly atmospheric (the more realistic the more I feel this is the case.) Gris for new games is a hit on both.
Can’t go without saying Shadow of the Colossus for atmosphere.
9. Last game you played?
Just finished Lunar Silver Star Story Complete! A fun ride!
10. Prefer PC or console?
I theoretically like consoles better. No worries about games running or not. But PC is more convenient for me in a a lot of ways.
11. Have you written any fanfic or made any fanart?
Naaaah, me? Naaah. No pile of fanfic over here nosiree
12. Most bizarre game you’ve ever played?
I feel like my bizarre metre is skewed. What even counts as bizarre in game-land? Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright was pretty damn weird in a lot of ways. Let’s go with that. (probably not the more bizarre game I’ve played but I’m coming up blank right now).
13. Scariest game you’ve played?
I don’t really play scary games. I like creepy moments in games, but not for that to be the focus. Metroid Prime had its areas. I don’t know if scariest but that’s what I can think of right now.
Shadow of the Colossus was fantastic for tension.
14. Do you watch playthroughs online?
Occasionally but not a huge thing for me, and only do so for games I’ve already played generally. Background noise.
15. Favorite animal in a video game?
Missile!
16. The best year in gaming you’ve experienced?
Not a clue. PS2 rpg catchup year was great. Or a couple years. That would’ve been around 2005-2007 range. My newfound Trails obsession started in 2015 and was a regular constant. 2016 is important for introducing me to Ghost Trick.
17. Have a video game themed background or lockscreen?
Breath of the Wild master sword on phone background. FFVI lockscreen. Shovel Knight desktop. 19. Hardest game you’ve ever played?
Only ever beat Pocky and Rocky (snes) on easy… Rayman 2 (PS1) was a definite challenge. Not sure. Zombies Ate My Neighbours (snes), hard and not even close to finishing.
20. Favorite publisher and/or developer?
Currently probably Falcom. Always have a fondness for Nintendo though.
21. If you had to play one game for the rest of your life, what would it be?
I can’t!
22. If you could turn one game into movie, which would it be?
Stares at game to movie track record. I’d rather not.
23. Favorite genre of video game?
rpgs!
24. Ever cried because of a video game? Which one(s)?
The Last Guardian hits hardest. FFX and Gris.
25. Proudest accomplishment in gaming?
I… don’t really think of pride that much in gaming? Finishing my ten year old file on Metroid Fusion was nice. Kicking on Lavos with only Crono and Marle was great at the time. I guess getting all the CT endings was cool. I feel like I’m forgetting something but eh.
