Pre-built or custom built?

When you're buying a new PC, do you buy a pre-built one or do you prefer building it yourself?

I like to choose the parts that I'm going to use myself. It gives me much more value for my money, and I can customize it to fit my needs perfectly.

Anyone who has played Mario?

As a kid, I used to love playing Mario on an old Nintendo console that I had. I don't know the specific name of the console, as it was way back in time. I remember that Mario was my favourite game, and I could easily spend 2-3 hours each day on the game trying to beat it. And actually, I did beat it...

Do you read reviews before purchasing a game?

Many platforms have the option for players to leave a review for a game they've purchased. This makes it easier for somebody who wants to buy the game but is not sure whether they will like it or not. I usually spend some time reading the reviews. They can be really helpful in finding out what's goi...

Do you spend on lootboxes?

Lootboxes are items in-game that require money to open, and from them you can win a random reward that, of course, costs less or more than what you've originally spent. As far as I remember, I've tried only twice to win something out of curiosity. I'm generally against lootboxes, I see them as a way...

Are you a fan of microtransactions?

Nowadays, almost every game offers microtransactions to speed up your progress. I'm not fond of this type of monetization. I would rather pay more for the full game and not have microtransactions. They might be addicting, as you will always want that boost on your account. And at the end, it might m...

Is esport a real sport?

Would you ever consider esport a real sport? In my honest opinion, I do think it's a real sport. People train themselves for hours and hours each day. There are big events that gather tens of thousands of people worldwide. There are prize pools and trophies as well. Esport might not be looked at as ...

What are some bad gaming habits?

I used to have a bad sleeping schedule because of gaming. I was staying up until late at night to play video games. Because of that, I was always tired when I had to get up early in the morning. I knew it was bad for my health, but for some reason, the younger me was still doing it. Fortunately, now...

Do you have a gaming char?

When I was looking to buy a new chair some years ago, I looked at the "gaming chairs". I've actually tried one, but I didn't find much difference compared to a regular office chair. The same amount of comfort, at least in my opinion. The only thing different I found was the price! They're ...

Do you preorder games?

Some developers offer exclusive bonuses if you preorder their game. This is a way to show support for the developers early on and also to get some nice limited items that won't be available to other players. Myself, I've never preordered a game. I would rather wait and read some reviews about it. Ne...

VR gaming?

So, I've watched a few videos talking about VR gaming. I've also watched a few playthroughs. And I was wondering, what does it feel like to play a VR game? Unfortunately, I don't have the device required to try it myself. If somebody has experience with virtual reality gaming, feel free to share! I ...
