    General Is single-player "skirmish" mode more relaxing than playing against humans?

    I've been playing with the full black fog of war. I won’t lie. It makes me very anxious. You know what is coming and every move becomes very risky. But when it's slightly visible, the game feels softer and less stressful. As it is right now, I don't even know which I prefer again. Sometimes I...

    General Should resources be infinite, or should you have to fight over new mines?

    I played a game where the resources is infinite. Honestly it became very boring quickly. There is no tension, no pressure, just to build and chill. But when resources are scarce? It's more engaging. You will fight for every little thing. That kind of struggle makes the game more alive.

    General What is the most satisfying sound effect in any RTS game?

    I've been noticing one thing. That sound when you finished building your unit and getting “ready” just hit differently. Or when your resources are complete. That sound feels very calming. Little things like that can give you satisfaction. Sometimes those sounds can even keep you hooked. What do...

    General If you could combine two RTS games into one, which ones would they be?

    Last month, I was playing two different RTS games back to back and something just hit me. Why can't they just combine the best parts? One has a very amazing battles, the other has a very clean economy system. If we put both together, that will give a perfect game already, but no, every dev wants...

    General What was the most heartbreaking moment you've ever had in a game mission?

    Sometimes I still think about one mission that I lost. After like 40 minutes of perfect play, one little mistake destroyed everything. I just stare at the screen devastated. There is no save point, no mercy. I had to start all over again. Which game remind you that effort does not always...

    General Is it better to have a deep tech tree or a simple one that is easy to learn in a strategy games?

    I opened one strategy game and when I saw the tech tree, I was weak.🤣 There are too many options, too many paths and I got so confused. Sometimes a simple system is better. But again, the simple ones can be very boring too. So which one do we even want?

    General Which RTS game has the best "One More Turn" feeling?

    I was just about to sleep around 1am and said “one more turn”. Next thing, it's 4:30am. There are some games where you would think that you are in control, next thing something new will happen and you will find yourself playing continuously. 🤣Some of the RTS games can hook you without even...

    General Do you listen to music/podcasts while playing, or do you need total focus?

    I play with music on and I don't even realize the enemy flanked me 😂 but when I switched off the music, everything becomes clear again. Playing games without music just feel dry sometimes. So, do you think it’s proper to focus on enjoying the vibes or focus on the game and win?

    General Would you rather have a few elite soldiers or a massive army of weak ones?

    I had a match now and I noticed something. My full army would just scatter when the enemy attacks. So, if there is no quality, those numbers don't mean anything. But at the same time, few elite soldiers will still get overwhelmed if the pressure is too much. Which one do you prefer?

    General What is the most annoying thing an AI ally can do to you in a strategy game?

    I’ve been on one RTS mission and this AI ally nearly ruined everything. That guy was hoarding resources aggressively, but once the enemy showed up, he disappeared. It feels like playing with an AI ally is a punishment, it doesn't provide support anymore. Sometimes I wonder if developers actually...

    News It’s Official! Warhammer 40K Space Marine III

    I have stopped rushing any new release again. The influencers would hype it and in the next week, complaints are everywhere. I usually wait for like 2-3 months before I even look into it. I learned this the hard way. If Space Marine 3 is good, people will embrace it for sure.

    General Do You Finish Games, or Just Move On?

    Some people are still forcing themselves to complete games. For me, I don't have that kind of strength again. Once the enjoyment drops below 50%, I’ll uninstall straightaway. I prefer short games that are sharp and meaningful.

    General Your Most Controversial Gaming Opinion

    Online multiplayer has spoil many games. Everything now has to do with connection. Network will fail, server will lag, so there will be frustration everywhere. I prefer an offline experience any day.

    General Are Game Reviews Still Worth Reading?

    Reviews has turned into a business now, no honesty again. They don't want to offend the publishers. I remember buying one hyped game last year, I regretted it. Since then, I have only followed the community opinions.

    General The First Game You Ever Got Obsessed With

    Back then, one game could carry you into another world entirely. Now all we get are updates, patches and some headache. There was a football manager game that nearly made me fail my test, I wont lie. 🤣 That deep connection that make you lose your sleep is very rare now to be honest.

    General What new games are you looking forward to?

    My own eyes are actually on anything that won't waste my time. I don't even like to chase hype again. Once I see too much marketing, I suspect it immediately 😅. And from the way things are now, every game must justify itself. It doesn't matter if it's a small title, as long as it delivers...

    General Marvel Rivals Leak Reveals Season 2 Map 'Arakko.'

    I dont trust leaks again like before because half of them are guesswork. But if they are able to pull this one well, Marvel Rivals can still be relevant. These games need steady updates. If not,players will bounce.

    General DOOM Just Got a New Campaign - From John Romero Himself

    This is why legacy matters. Old games that are still very strong can still hold today. Not everything must be a shiny new release. People will still go for games that has value and soul.

    General System Shock 2 Remaster Release Date Confirmed as 26th June!

    Remasters is very sweet and so interesting but they are risky too. Sometimes it's the nostalgia that carries them. If they could polish the gameplay well, it can work. If not, it would just be an old glory.

    General Keyboard & Mouse or Controller?

    K&M is the king of precision, especially if you are playing competitive game. The controller is for chilling games. 🤣. For me, I don't think I have the strength to keep troubleshooting, especially after having a long day. So, I prefer K&M
