I just posted a YouTube () about how there is no post button on this site weird filmed it and everything. Even went to the Discord for help but I was not permitted to post there either. Strange! I've never logged into to either!

Your Discord isn’t sync’d with the main site. No one except the bot can post in the new threads channels. There are a few channels missing, where the general discussion occurs. For whatever reason the sync can be a bit buggy. You might have to try a few times to get it to sync properly. Your username will turn blue when it goes through.

You won’t be able to post a thread until you’re a full member.

Just wondering, why is the Discord synced with this site?
So it can verify your account. The Discord isn’t meant for the general public I assume. Once verified there are a few extra channels but overall, it’s not overly active. Most just post on the site but it’s a nice hangout spot. I like it for new threads and the general chatter.

Cool avatar by the way, is that someone you know?
You could say that.

Hi all, I'm Koppelthorn. I'm a hobbyist game developer and I used to lurk here around 2014/2015 when MGSV was real hype and it was all crazy. Those were the days. I love the Metal Gear series and horror games, but sadly I have little time to play. Shitty video games are my dirty pleasure, love me some bad gaems. Right now just have a PS5 & okish laptop.

Some of my favorite games are
  • The MGSV Experience (Best story out of all of them; thats my death hill hehehe),
  • MGS(PSX)
  • Dark Souls
  • P.T
  • Ib
  • Undertale
  • RIDGE RACER TYPE 4
  • VA11-HALLA and some others that I can't remember. I like small relatively niche games more often than not so I try and keep my eye out for them. But I also try to keep the pulse of the wider game industry at large in mind.
  • Six Feet Under is one of the best TV shows and it's sad no one talks about it much anymore

I signed up here because frankly I just wanted to talk to (mostly) sensible people about the game industry and where its heading, and everyone here for the most part is nice or has a good head on their shoulders. There are many interesting opinions and viewpoints on the game industry here as well and I find that listening to you guys helps keeps my games sane when I plan them out. So I hope to have some great discussions!

Never Be Game Over!

Sorry, I'm a bit paranoid but it makes sense. I've logged into other gaming sites and never gotten approved, had all my comments blocked and stuff...

Good morning. My name is Johnny. I’m your basic mid 40s white guy. Been lurking this place for probably 15 years. Even watched the REEEEE bullshit unfold. While I’m new here, I am nowhere near new to message boards.

I game when I can, own all systems. My hobbies are guitars and guns. I hail from the great state of Texas.

Signed up originally to discuss Hogwarts Legacy PC performance under Linux. Ship may have sailed on that one. Actually: it ran surprisingly ok with decent custom graphics settings on a Ryzen 3600/RX 5500 XT, runs very nice now with a 5800X3D/7900 XTX everything ultra. First non-Linux-native game I've purchased in a decade and it was definitely worth it.

Hey guys, I am also a game-dev hobbyist who enjoys participating in game jams.

Games I like: RPGs with strong emphasis on story-telling, and really any game with a good story, also League.
Games I don't quite like: loot-boxes, low-effort cash-grab, asset-flip games that waste people's time

I am really passionate about video games and want to understand this medium more, so I'm conducting a research project about video game features.
If yall don't mind, pls take a few minutes to complete this short survey: https://hku.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6L2vEYnosWPX7JI

the deadline is approaching so it will really help. Thanks a lot!

*Hope I don't get banned for this*

Hey everybody. I have no idea what to include for my introduction but I'd just say that I am primarily a PC gamer. I have been lurking on this forum as well as members on others such as the aformentioned Era one. However due to their sterilized content, I find it to be a bit boring to contribute anything of note there, not to mention limited interactions and banning others without explanation.

For those wondering what I look like, as for whatever reason, people confuse my avatar for myself despite using my real name, I have decided to just post a photo pf myself to clear any confusion.
(Yes, I am not exactly photogenic as you can clearly see).

Hi there!

I'm "new" here!

Please bare with me if my posts make you uncomfortable and/or question your sanity because (ssst I'm not supposed to say this) I'm the not so long lost twin of Maiden Voyage Maiden Voyage .

He's the pistache milkshake to my mocca latte.

He's the lighthouse to my deceased uncle's brothel.

Ultimately he's the cousin I've never stood a chance with.

With that said; Welcome!

And remember Fzerogx >>> Driveclub.

Hi! I... actually can't remember how long ago I actually created an account here, but just found my way back to the site and realized I'd registered at some point.

Been gaming since I was a kid back on the NES, and honesty still mull over the idea of trying to transition my career to *something* in the video-game industry (currently work in digital marketing). Thought I might enjoy making some kind of podcast, if I ever found a couple folks to chat with regularly.

Sorta funny I haven't been active on this site more, given how much I love any kind of gaming news, and NeoGAF is so often cited as a source for all kinds of cool stories about all sorts of games.

Anyway; big fan of basically everything Capcom was putting out in the 90's, always on the lookout for a new MMO to get lost in, and really love most genres, save for probably Puzzles, Sports, and most Survival-Horror (although those are a blast to play with friends, imo). Current in the NoVa/DC area, planning to move to Orlando probably towards the end of the year (barring any major changes). Definitely looking forward to a day I can have a fully dedicated "gaming room" where I can finally display all the gaming crap I've hoarded over the years.

Hey all,
I never did this introduction thing and I joined back in 2016. I usually just browse the gaming forums for updates and laughing at memes. I would love to participate more in polls but I'm still a neo-member so I don't have that luxury. I do play mainly on my PC but I do have a PS5 and recently just bought the PSVR2.
