I think Portal 2's linearity and hand-holding frustrated some, despite widespread critical acclaim and innovative puzzle design...

To me, 'barely visible' means I can discern the object's shape and outline, but it's still somewhat faint..

I felt a pang of guilt, especially with the Fade-touched dragons.. their tragic stories humanized them too much.

For me its Magica, Team Fortress 2, and Left 4 Dead 2 classics with dedicated cores, but noticeably dwindling player bases...

I'm weirdly skilled at sequence-breaking in Zelda games and finding exploit routes in Super Mario 64, it's an odd pride..

I think Reddit's r/gaming and sub-communities e.g., r/FortNite, r/DotA2 foster the most active and engaged gaming community online..

I miss the original Sims, Fallout, and Diablo..

Have you ever attended a gaming convention or event? Which one would you love to attend? Unfortunately, I haven't attended any gaming conventions yet, but dream of experiencing E3, Gamescom, or PAX to meet industry legends..

Are you more into RPGs, FPS, or strategy games, and what draws you to that genre?

Professional tree climbing in 'Tree Top Quest' and underwater hockey in 'Octopush' are bizarre yet fascinating esports...

It was Minecraft on PS4..

What's the longest gaming marathon you've ever had, and what game kept you hooked? Mine was a 72-hour World of Warcraft marathon.. leveling my first character to 60 was addictive bliss...

PC, console, or handheld - which gaming platform do you prefer, and why? For me, PC gaming all the way! Customization, upgradeability, and wider game selection make it my go-to platform..

Depends on the game. Limited resources work in survival horror or roguelikes, but feel restrictive in RPGs..

What's the most challenging game you've ever beaten, and how did you feel afterward? For me, defeating The Nameless King in Dark Souls III was toughest..

Yah, I missed out on online gaming's golden era due to dial-up's limitations, but fond memories remain...
