1. My first game ever played was Oregon Trail 2. I played it over and over on my parent's Windows 95 system, which sat at a dedicated wooden shelf. I would have been about 5 years old at the time. - ThreadSky

2. Favorite character is a hard one, so I'll ramble off a few.

- Gerald of The Witcher series has been a favorite of mine for a long time, but I believe it was heavily influenced by me reading the books. He's such a relatable character, with all sorts of human flaws.

3. Dark Cloud for the PS2 is severely underrated in my opinion. Originally shown as a demo for the capabilities of the PS2, it was developed as a fun old-school RPG where almost all progression revolves around your gear rather than your character. It also featured procedurally generated dungeons.

4. My obvious guilty pleasure game would be Final Fantasy XIV, especially when spent doing long sessions of crafting on patch days. I feel this is too easy of an answer.

I'd say Harvest Moon/Rune Factory is another one. I can spend hours tending to a virtual farm or minmaxing my combat gear.

5. This is a difficult one, as the games I play often lack a rigidly defined min character.

I resonate best with Y'shtola from Final Fantasy XIV. While my online persona may not suggest such, I tend to be reserved and taciturn in person and tend to only speak up to contribute topic-relevant info.

6. For most annoying character, I give the award to Samos, the green sage, of the Jak and Daxter series. Nothing like having an old man constantly screaming instructions at you.

7. Gerald and Yennefer of the Witcher series for favorite "video game" couple. They fight like an old married couple and its pretty funny.

Definitely not because I read the books or anything. If you prod this one further it may crumble...

- Majima from Yakuza is such a fun character. He plays himself a such a hard-ass, but Yakuza 0 really gives you a show of his soft side.

- V from Cyberpunk. Though very loosely defined, I think the story writing of the game does a really fantastic job of giving the character took to be complex.

- Tressa from Octopath Traveller. She's a fun character with a lot of energy, and her spunk in her dialogue always gets me energized.
