The "Introduce yourself" thread

Welcome! Glad you found us.

Hi all!

I've only relatively recently discovered the podcast and have spent the last few months working through the backlog, and I'm gutted that it took me so long to find it!

Some of my earliest memories in life are the DOS games we had on the family computer, with some vague memories of pre-colour games, but more vivid memories of games like the original Duke Nukem, Hocus Pocus, Commander Keen and so on.

I've been heavily into games ever since, and while I have always been prodominently on PC, I do own every generation of Playstation, and my wife and I are slowly building up a collection of classic consoles so I can finally play some Nintendo games. I will give most types of games a go, but I do steer very clear of multiplayer unless it's local co-op. I like to pretend that it's because I prefer an immerse narrative experience over repetitive competition, but actually it's because I suck and I don't need my hobby to remind me of my failings.

I make videos on Youtube in my spare time where I talk about games as a series, because I'm looking for any excuse to just talk about games, which brings me back as to why I am so glad I discovered this podcast and this forum.

So yeah, hi! How're you? How did that thing go last week?

A real person! (Sorry, there have been so many spambot signups lately!)

Welcome!
