Hello everybody!

Hello everyone! Following @RockstarBe's advice, I'm taking the easy way to introduce myself to you by answering the predefined set of questions.

In the aforementioned post you'll find a link to my Steam profile, feel free to add me as well. PM me with anything you want to ask or comment, I'll be happy to answer.

I swear I've been trying so hard to like isometric RPGs over the years, but only a very few amount of them caught my attention. I can't even tell you the reason why. Didn't try Path of Exile though, so who knows...

I always loved the isometric concept because I grew up with titles like Bauldur's Gate, Diablo 2, MU Online I guess. Never had to give any effort to like them 😄 Just be careful if you really want to try PoE out. Its one of the most addictive games i've ever played. And I have around 16000 hours combined in DotA 2 and CS:GO.. Best time to try it would be when PoE 2 releases i think. Its gonna be integrated to PoE 1 and will draw lots of new players.

Damn it, that's more hours than a 4 year degree, you should get a CS:GO diploma at the very least. I'll give it a try then, what I crave for is a good and well-told story so if that's the case I'll most likely be hooked by then 😄

Thanks for your welcoming message!

 

In all honesty, it's been less than 24 hours ago since I discovered that ET actually existed, it's great how you guys are able to keep an 18-year-old game still alive. I might give it a try!
