Ugh, this is tough... I'm an incredibly dedicated gamer, love to go hard on many games... but honestly, I've never been particularly *great* at one game, which surprises some people who see how much I play. There are some games I feel a strong facility with, or certain parts of some games that I definitely excel at, but I'll never reach pro level. Thinking about some examples...
- I'm great at gleaning systems and behind-the-scenes mechanics with minimal information. Just by "feel" I can be like, "oh ok, this system uses this stat number divided by 2 over this period of time" or whatever. It just feels clear.
- I'm an extremely proficient Halo 3 Ghost and Warthog driver, hijacker, and neutralizer. Few games have actually seemed like "work" to me, but I seriously dedicated myself to those roles, and it paid off with some epic vehicle moments for the good of the team.
- I'm a reasonable Mitsurugi and Blanka (SFII) player.
- I'm a ridiculously focused and perfectionist in-game level designer, specifically Halo Forge and, lately, Far Cry 4. I really take pride in how I guide the player via visuals and map pressures and innate knowledge of game flow. I'd love to make maps professionally someday.
- Oh, and Borderlands online often feels like a series of quite muscular button and stick combinations, completed at maximum efficiency in order to keep up with a co-op team, and when it clicks and you're accomplishing all tasks without falling behind, it really feels cool.
