Expectations, boredom and sometimes impulse. So many games I've bought that I never ended up playing or gave up on trying because I didn't like the gameplay...
Have you ever finished a Rubik's Cube? |
If it seems to have a good idea and a good story. Most of the times, games are part of a series, so if I like the series, I'll probably get it. If I don't know the series, then I'll probably see some gameplay or document about it before buying. If I am really stunned by a game, I just buy it.
Do you prefer sea or mountains? |

Let me reply to the missed question, and let's just say my question is the same than Piplup to get back in order! Finished a Rubik's cube ? Never! The most I could do was to get only one face of the same color... I'm afraid the cube would fall in a black hole long before I would finish it! Quote:
|
I love the sea, but I'm a mountains, forests and rivers kinda girl at heart <3
How many power banks do you own? |
Oh those things.... my work gave me one once... which is still in the box unused rofl
I don't use those things as I have no need for them, but I do have one since my work gave me one. Do you do any puzzles on a regular basis? Jigsaw puzzles, 3D puzzles, crosswords, Sudoku, etc. etc. |
I prove theorems for a living, do you count them as puzzles? 🤔
Otherwise no, even if playing videogames means you're solving millions of micro-puzzles every hour :) Have you ever experienced an earthquake? |
Nope, I live in an earthquake free region and have never been in one that has those.
Have you ever been inside an airplane? |
Yes. I have used airplanes to travel, several times. I like them. Unfortunately, the nearest good airport is in Rome and that takes around 3 hours by car to get there.
Have you ever traveled to a place for holiday alone? |
Yes. My trip to the US was by my lonesome, as was my more recent trip to southern Spain.
I mean... it's not like I actually have someone to go with so its sorta alone by default nowadays lol What's your favorite animal ? |
Hard question. When I was younger I loved reading biology books that give details on many species, including dead species like dinosaurs or the animals before... For example I loved the arthropods from before the dinosaurs, like the trilobites or ammonites. I'd say my favourite animal would be Dimetrodons :)
Spoiler:
Have you ever been alone to a restaurant? Quote:
|
I only go to restaurants when I have others around. It would seem awkward to me if I went in alone. ^^"
Have you ever played Chess? |
Yep, indeed. I don't really like it though.
What time do you usually wake up in the morning? |
8:00-8:30. My work starts at 10 and is close by so...
Are you currently watching any Anime or cartoons? |
I started watching Naruto lately. It's not really my genre, but it's quite nice. All those characters and all the stories make it quite interesting. I am not a fan of anime where there are too many battles, but for now I am not minding too much.
What's the last movie you have watched? |
In the cinema: Thor: Love and Thunder. On TV: it's been more than ten years since I've watched TV. In the airplace: The Batman. Both on the flight to Europe and on the flight to Canada XD
Do you binge-watch TV shows? |
I stopped watching TV a long time ago. And I don't watch streaming services so I'm not really doing that. I used to watch anime on certain websites and usually binge-watched them. The last series I remember watching where the Castlevania series on Netflix during last Christmas when I stayed at my mother's house and before that Revolutionary Girl Utena on a random website in 2019.
What's a series you really like? |
From TV.... Stargate. The SG-1 and Atlantis seasons that is... there was another version after that, but I don't even remember the name. Watched 1 episode of it and didn't like it =P
Doctor Who as well! From Anime... I really like Gintama. Is there a place you would like to go to? |
I'd like to go to northern Europe: Sweden, Norway, Netherlands, Finland. I wanted to visit Russia but maybe not now, and also Iceland to test if it's colder than Canada :)
But Canada was the country I wanted to visit most. Is there a country you don't want to visit? |
Basically any country with an autocratic regime. No reason to support them with tourist money; especially if they can just take whatever they want whenever they want, anyway.
Do you like seafood? |
Yes, But only some of them, not all.
Which Fan-made pokemon game do you like the most? |
That question is wasted on my as the only one I've played at all is Uranium, and I got bored grinding and ditched it before the first gym so...
I'll just recycle that question after broadening it =P Are there any unofficial games or mods for games that you really liked? So not just Pokemon, but any game. |
Skyrim is my second most-played game on Steam, and the reason is the infinite amount of mods of that game :)
Basically I liked every mod that added new characters, quests, monsters and / or dragons. However, I've never started any DLC-sized mod that add a whole new area with many quests and all, because I thought "later". Do you generally like mods for a videogame? |
The only 'mods' I've really had are all the graphics downloads for Football Manager. I did...until my team (Manchester United) ruined it by threatening lawsuits meaning they're removed from all of them :(
Quote:
Have many different consoles do you own? (Up to you if you count multiples of the same type separately i.e. I have 2x GBA, DSLite, 2DS XL because I only play Pokémon) |
I guess, a lot. Mostly handhelds, though. 1 Original Gameboy, 1 GBA SP, 1 PSP, 1 DS Lite, 1 3DS, 1 N3DS, 1 Game Cube, 1 Switch, 1 PS4. Most of them don't work, though. That's because I removed the batteries due to them dying. Though, sadly my Game Cube is just play broken. <_<
What's your favorite console? |
My Animal Crossing Switch. It's too cute!
What's the last game you have bought? |
I pre-ordered Pokemon Violet a couple days ago... but that's obviously not here yet...
Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series for the Switch. Which is still in plastic because no time =P Are there any Board games you like playing? |
I liked Monopoly and Cluedo, but honestly I think I would enjoy any board game that's not stupidly complicated (like chess...)
How are you with paperwork? Quote:
|
Chess is a simple game. The man looks into Anya Taylor-Joy's eyes and she obliterates him.
I'm a horrendous procrastinator - just find any decision-making stressful, basically no long-term thinking whatsoever. But I'm pretty good at data entry tasks and the like Do you speak more than one language? |
Not speaking as there's only one primary language in my country. I also generally don't talk much unless I have no other choice. I know more than one language. Otherwise I wouldn't even be here. Not sure how well I'd do actually speaking English, though. ^^"
What's you best talent? |
I'm not sure... I have a lot of patience when making bigger Lego or Ministeck sets... dunno if it counts as a talent... following instructions from the sets probably isn't a talent, but not everyone will have the patience so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I was above average at pretty much every sport in high school... always had decent grades without really trying. Don't really think that counts though, because jack of all trades, master on none kind of thing =P So idk. Have you ever auditioned for something? Like say, a local play or school play, or for a tv show, etc. |
No, never, except for work. We don't call it an audition though.
Do you often nibble? |
Yeah, it helps my digestion. Eating too quickly can upset my stomach.
What is a game you've finished and never touched again after completion of the main story? |
Pokemon Moon (even completed the Pokedex during the main story) is one of those games. Pokemon Sword kinda. I made another playthrough, though; stopping after the credits, as well. Probably a bunch of indie games, also.
What's a game you found being way too short? |
The order 1886. When I bought the PS4, I needed to get a bundle version and between the ones out there, I got this game. I kinda liked it and it wasn't too bad, but I also remember it being really short.
Do you play you gi oh (or have you ever played it)? |
What's that?
I've seen a couple episodes of the anime on TV as a kid or teen. Outside of that I've not had any interaction with this franchise. What would you do if you won the grand prize in a lottery? |
Use it to give a bribe raise to Megan
Save it on an account and use it occasionally only when I need to buy something expensive (like a computer, a flight to Europe or an appartment not that they are equally expensive lol). I don't think I would use it to change my life style and claim to be in a higher social class than I am now ^^" You are offered citizenship of a different country than yours, and you can choose. Which country do you choose? |
They all feel very terrible at the moment, tbh. Like, removing all the countries that currently go under some sort of right wing revolution or are imerialistic nations and just looking for ways to strip more rights of their own citizens or even other nations, then there's not a lot left. For all I know the country that I am living in already is probably still the best bet. ^^"
And I don't know Japanese either. What's your favorite plush? |
My white Teddy Bear. I am really affectionate to him and it's so cute!
Do you like discussing politics? |
I don't pay attention to politics whatsoever. Waste of time =P
What was the first pet you remember having? |
I only had one pet in my life. And my parents didn’t even knew I was gonna have it. It was a fish that I got like in first grade.
What is the most embarrassing thing that happened to you? |
I can't recall at the moment. Probably because embarrassing memories prefer popping up when you don't feel like having them.
Do you think video game graphics can still improve, or are we nearing the peak of what we can see? |
Quote:
Shortly before the COVID-19 lockdowns in my location, when home alone for the weekend and hungry with nothing to cook, I ordered a pizza from my city's local pizzeria. After waiting on the pizza for a while, I realized that the delivery was taking longer than usual. Curious, I called the pizzeria and respectfully asked about the status of my delivery. The lady on the phone then informed me that the driver, the only driver working that night on the weekend because of other drivers going home sick, had several orders to deliver, but also stated that the cook made a mistake with my order, resulting in my pizza having to be remade. Because of the number of pending deliveries and the fact that my pizza had to be redone, she informed me that delivery could potentially take about 45 minutes to an hour. Being as I try to live up to my name as much as humanly possible, I said, "No worries," and decided then would be the perfect time to shower before eating my pizza and heading to bed soon. However, while I was in the shower for about 20 minutes or so, I vaguely heard the doorbell and my dog barking out of control. I figured that my pizza must have arrived early, so I exited the shower, threw on a towel with the shower still running so I could return to it shortly after, answered the door, and, sure enough, it was the delivery driver. He said that since he already picked up my redone order, he decided to delivery my pizza to me first since I called about it and also said he didn't mean to disturb my shower. I told him that it was fine and thanked him for giving my order priority. When he gave me the receipt to sign, while I was signing it, my dog, still acting out of control and barking, got his paws in the towel and completely ripped it off my body, affording the pizzaman a very close and clear eyeful. It was super humiliating. I naturally closed the door quickly and ended up chasing my dog for a second to get my towel back from under his paw. I got my towel shortly after and wrapped up, only to realize then that I had the livingroom blinds up about halfway and the driver was looking at me through the window the entire time I was chasing my dog around. I went back to give him his copy of the receipt that I signed, got my pizza, and said, "Let's pretend that you didn't see what you saw," and he thought it was the funniest thing ever. He commented that it was the first time he ever saw something like that on the job. I learned, from now on, never answer the door in just a towel no matter the circumstance, especially when you have highly energetic pets in the house that go crazy when someone knocks or rings the doorbell. Quote:
What was your first ever job? |
My PhD (it's considered a temporary contract).
What time do you usually go to bed/wake up? |
I go to bed around 8:15 PM and get up around 4:30 AM. All things considered it's not much of a difference to back when I was still going to school. Except, I could sleep longer and actually didn't have sleeping problems. ^^"
What's something you really would like to be good at? |
I don't consider myself bad at drawing, but I definitely wouldn't mind being better at it =3
Have you ever made any pottery? It was mandatory in arts and crafts here when I was in high school. |
It was a craft when I was in Elementary School. I can't remember enjoying it unfortunately. I wouldn't mind doing it now.
Have you won any sort of award? |
This question was tailored for me Kappa
I've won the Last One To Post Wins v2 on this very forum 😇 Spoiler:
Do you like philosophy? |
I've read a lot of it in the past. Nietzsche, Descardes, Plato, Aristotles even Hegel, etc. I hoped to find meaning in life that way but got kinda disappointed. Instead I got dragged into looking into politics where I just barely avoided getting trapped by the right wing pipeline (ironically knowing some Nitzsche was a big helper for getting out of that place). I am kind of tired of philosophy at this point, though. Also, it still didn't help me find a meaning in life. xD
Do you have good navigation skills? |
I can normally find my way around if I have a map of some sort at my disposal.
I also always manage to backtrack the path I took without any aid. What's your favorite pizza? |
Domino's meat-lover from Canada (it's not the same in my country). I've just finished a large one at lunch :P
Do you believe that the soul exists? |
yep
Do you think melted Ice Cream tastes better? |
Isn't that just milk with flavor? Idk, I think Ice cream needs to be frozen. Maybe slightly melted at the surface is alright, as well?
Do you eat ice cream during Winter? |
Nope, I only eat ice cream during summer usually.
Do you like your country's flag? If not, got any ideas for a flag you'd like your country to have? |
I am not a fan of the colour red in general, but I like my Country's flag. Each colour has a meaning, so that's cool.
Have you ever explored a city with a normal map (not digital, I mean)? |
I usually explore a city without a map. That's one of the reasons why I usually don't find my way. xD
I think regular maps can sometimes be more useful than digital ones. Have you ever written an article? |
Not an article no.
I wrote a couple short stories in high school... and a whole bunch of essays. Have you ever been interviewed or have you ever interviewed someone? |
No and no, however I would like to be interviewed, it must feel so good to talk about yourself for like one hour :3
(Not including job interviews lol) Would you like to be born in another country? |
Not right now at least. Other countries have so many issues right now! D:
What's a song you currently like? |
Oingo Boingo - Gray Matter
Have you ever tried double chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream? If yes, do you like it? |
Nope.
Have you ever played paintball or laser tag? |
Laser tag, twice, once with strangers, I loved it!
I'd like to do it again in Canada, I need to check if I have one around. In a typical week, how many times do you order food or go to the restaurant? |
I've never ordered food nor have I ever entered a restaurant on my own volition. I just occasionally buy something at a store and that's mostly it.
Is there a place near you that you want to check out but haven't, yet? |
A good number of places, but especially a thrifty clothing store in my hometown. The clothes look cute and they seem to have good deals.
What's the worst (SFW) post you've ever read? (can be from anywhere) |
I really don't know.
Have you ever done something on a dare? |
I don't think so. If so, it must have not been too interesting.
What rhymes with 'orange'? |
Not many words:
Spoiler:
But I don't understand why "storage" would rhyme with "orange". You win a contest on the Internet, and the prize is that Game Freak lets you make one Pokémon (or Pokémon line) for the next game. What do you do? |
Probably try to come up with something daring that makes everyone feel uncomfortable. I actually don't have any idea what such a Pokemon would look like, though.
To what cause would you donate money? (Or if you are donating: what causes do you donate money to?) |
I already donate to Doctors Without Borders.
Have you ever found something in your home you totally forgot you had? |
Probably but I don't remember.
If that counts, someday I found one of my books in my first apartment, I thought I had left it at my parents' home ^^ How many times do you check your phone in a day? (roughly) |
Not even once unless I expect a message. Doesn't happen that often, either, though. ^^"
What's your favorite food? |
Spoiler:
This leek casserole is probably my favorite atm, aside from snacks like chocolate: Spoiler:
Were you in any clubs in (high) school? |
We didn't have clubs. I mean, it's not my school, but not a thing in general. We had some short courses that could give extra credit points. I followed a biology one and one about Italian Constitution and similar. I really didn't want to follow that one, but we were forced to by our teachers basically because the year when we had the exam, rules changed and that thing became officially an exam topic even if we had never studied anything so we had to integrate stuff somehow lol.
What's the oldest memory you have? |
I think it was a memory of me walking on all fours (I had not mastered my gravity negating power yet), and looking at a mirror without recognizing myself (thinking it was another Ralts!).
Do you remember a great dream you had when you were young ? |
I don't remember many of my dreams. I think the oldest dream I remember was me being lost in a room with two stairs on the side, and me fighting two giant minotaurs with armours (the same giant minotaur from the first God of War).
Have you ever been to a wedding? Quote:
I don't know my age back then, but I remember putting my teddy bear to the washing machine after my dog peed on it, and hanging it by the ears to dry it :3 |
I think I was. Though, that definitely was a long time ago. It was my uncle's wedding. I don't remember too much, though.
Have you ever attended a school festival or similar as a guest/outsider? (e.g. one of your siblings went to that school) |
Pretty sure I entered a party at some point lol. We had those nights at disco organized by school and you only needed a ticket to enter. Despite it was mostly for people of the school, obviously a lot more people came from other schools as well. So, I pretty much followed the flow lol. My friends weren't really fans of discos, so we rarely went.
Do you have a favorite teacher? |
Spoiler:
I don't really remember tbh. There's a couple I remember being nice, but like, I can't remember if I considered them a favorite back then. What trait would you consider the most important in a person? |
Idk. being honest? We have too many liars and greedy bastards around. Someone actually being honest about what they're doing would be a nice change of pace.
Do you need light in order to sleep? |
Not at all!
Are you interested in literature? |
Nope,
What game comes to mind when you think of your best game ever played? |
Many games: Dark Souls 3, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (yes), God of War 1 and 2, Skyrim, DOOM 2016.
Spoiler:
Whatare your least favourite games? |
Those games on steam that exist for the sole purpose of inflating someone's achievement list without any real challenge or any actually decent gameplay.
If you want an example: https://store.steampowered.com/app/658550/Zup_Zero_2/ 777 achievements and you'll probably finish it in like 90 minutes, seeing a non stop stream of achievements unlocking the whole time. Additionally, those pervy games I have filtered out of Steam. I ain't even gonna mention or link one, as I don't even remember their names and like said, I've filtered them out of my Steam =3 Plus it would be inappropriate anyway. I merely saw some thumbnails and the game names while browsing new releases one day and I immediately adjusted my filters. Have you ever donated blood? |
Nope and I'm too faint hearted for this kind of stuff. Not good with blood, especially when I imagine it running through my body. ^^"
Do you know how to do first aid? |
Nope. Although my mother has received full training and certification on it. Required for her field.
If you were an emoji, which one would you be? |
❄️
Obviously... 😉 Do you prefer the big city or the countryside? |
Big city, I need internet and public transportations, I cannot live in the countryside XD
What's the last videogame you've played? |
Psychonauts 2. Less than 15 minutes ago. Played for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Have you ever repaired a broken product on your own? ( either big or small). |
You mean like emergency sewing broken parts of some jeans I wear? Yeah, I have. I've also attempted repairing some PCs over time to middling success.
What's something you never want to do digitally? |
Voting.
But I've never voted anyway so it doesn't really matter =P Nothing else really came to mind atm What's your favorite color? Has it ever changed? |
Yellow previously, now preference the color red.
How much of a picky eater are you? |
Probably a lot. I don't like the majority of soups, for example.
What's your favorite way of transportation? |
I'd say metro, and that's the reason why I want to live in a big city. I hate long travels though but I prefer trains to planes whenever possible, because I always fear I might lose my luggage in a plane...
Do you binge-watch TV series? |
Actual TV series: no.
Anime I watch on my computer: yes. They don't really air that stuff on TV here as far as I know. Have you ever bought any box-sets for TV shows you really like? |
No, I haven't. I don't even know what series I actually like so much that I'd buy the episodes in physical.
What's your favorite show? |
Had the most fun with Breaking Bad. As for favorites I'm going to be biased towards pro wrestling shows since that's what I grew up with.
What's your favorite book? |
One scientific book about mathematics, but I won't cite it because I'm probably the only one in the world using this ^^"
Another scientific book, of biology this time: the Biology of Homosexuality, if you know someone how is homophobic, give them this book and it'll "cure" their homophobia. And my favourite novel isn't one of the Harry Potter, or one of the Lord of Rings, but the Count of Monte-Cristo. How much time do you spend on Youtube per day or week? |
Most of what's left of my day after mostly just work and commuting. I don't exactly have any energy after that so it's just videos all the way until bed...
When was the last time you visited your grandparents? Quote:
|
Before leaving my city to go to another one for uni. It was two weeks ago. I have talked to both of my grandmas during the week though.
Quote:
Quote:
Is there a particular food you really don't like? |
Licorice, raisins and thanks to having eaten wayyyy to many of it long ago: cauliflower.
And probably more, but these came to mind right away. What's your favorite season? |
If I was in Europe it would be winter, but in Canada it's autumn ^^"
When you don't like something, can you often explain why? |
| All times are GMT -8. The time now is 6:47 AM. |
