Have You Ever? Gaming Edition

I saw this article written by Michelle a few weeks back and decided to give it a go myself.

Don’t know if I can answer everything, but as an avid gamer, I’m sure it won’t be too hard.

Rage quit a game

Yeah a few times with Alien Isolation not due to the alien itself, but at a certain point in the game, I got sick and tired of dealing with the androids. Then I felt like I couldn’t continue forward when I had to put all my weapons in a safe and there were more androids with heavy suits on.

I’ve never been good at stealth in games, perhaps that’s why I stopped playing Assassin’s Creed too unfortunately. It’s not for everyone.

Earned all achievements in a game

Yep with two indie horror games The Cat Lady and Downfall. They both come from the same universe.

Pulled an all-nighter gaming

Nah, I could never even if I wanted to. I’m definitely not a night owl, always in bed by ten, sometimes before that if I have an early shift the next day.

Livestreamed your gaming

I’m not really interested in doing that so, no. I’d rather just concentrate on playing and enjoying the game rather than have to see who’s watching me play.

Plus becoming a streamer requires playing constantly and I have other hobbies besides gaming.

Pre-ordered a game

Sure, when the Pokemon Platinum game came out and 343 Industries announced MCC I was all for seizing the game the moment it was available!

Bought a game and never played it

All those backlogged on my Steam profile like I still haven’t picked up Dark Souls III. Do you hope I do someday?

Been jump-scared by a horror game

All the time with the two indie horror games I mentioned above, and in Dead Space those Necromorphs never fails to sneak up on me!

And let’s not forget the most notorious 5 Nights At Freddy’s where I played the first two nights of the first game and got jumped a few times. Now I just watch other people play, but I am interested in the lore.

Had a set squad for a specific game

Can’t say for that since I don’t play multiplayer anymore, except for Halo’s Firefight on occasion, even so, I still don’t have one.

Bought a game on multiple platforms

Sure, like Halo MCC, Spyro, the original Luigi’s Mansion, I don’t know if I can list them all but it’s been a while since I last did that.

Got a console for the games specifically

Yeah a few times, like the original DS for the 4th Pokemon generation. Then the 3DS for Pokemon X and Y and Animal Crossing New Leaf, I played the latter before it became immensely popular that it appears to be now.
