Fun Video Game Asks for you and your cool friends

Doing some very early frameworks on a sci-fi saga. Purebred Chinese. Below are my practice works, as well as some translations done for fun.

Feb 9, 2016

First game you played obsessively?

Probably Max Payne 2. Noir vibe aside Max Payne 2 is a majestic shooter.

2. A game that has influenced you creatively? Writing, drawing, etc.

Witcher I suppose? I’m one of those people who went to read all seven Witcher novels in the vacuum between W2 and W3 and it definitely had influence on something I’ve been writing lately.

3. Who did you play with as a kid?

None.

4. Who do you play with now?

Random strangers on the Internet.

Does staring blankly at Steam interface waiting for Portal 2 to unlock count?

11. Have you ever made new friends from playing video games?

Kinda?

No one ever specifically picked on me but I love Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days. It had its flaws but goddamn the artistic direction is FUCKING ON POINT FIGHT ME

13. A game you’ve never played that everyone else has?

Dota? League? I don’t think I’ve finished Dota’s training missions and I’ve never even downloaded LoL.

23. The game that you’ve logged the most hours into?\

Fun story: I’ve created multiple Team Fortress 2 accounts in the early days, putting the game on idle and smelting dropped weapons for metal. Then I kinda got bored so I sat on a pile of metal for like a year, then decided fuck it I’m not playing TF2 anymore why not sell these shit. It used to be 2.66 refined metal for a TF2 crate key ($2.49 real money value). By the time I decided to sell everything it was already 7 ref/key. Goddamn inflation.
