Toastofthedead - Exile

Post by toastofthedead » Wed May 21, 2014 10:48 am

Hello all!

My name is Christopher, I'm 31 and I'm Canadian. I've been gaming since the NES days but my real love is for PC gaming. I have super fond memories of gaming with my Dad on our old i486 computer. Doom, Doom 2, Doom Star Wars and Rise of the Triad were all staples back in the day. I just recently started streaming as a full-time gig on Twitch and I'm planning to do a 24 hour launch stream on the 31st :)

I'm REALLY pumped for Wildstar. I played 2 of the beta weekends and every day during the open beta. I had to force myself to stop at level 10 so I wouldn't burn through all the content that was available. I want some stuff to be a surprise on early access. I think the game is a winner though. It's actually FUN to play and is aesthetically pleasing. Not sure about you guys but I love bright colours! Really hope it has some staying power.

Anywho that's about all out of me for now but if you have any questions just let me know. Looking forward to seeing you all in game :)

Welcome to the family, toast! :)

I feel the same way. Call me whimisical! Graphics like ESO, Neverwinter etc just do not interest me, even if the gameplay is amazing. I love the colors in Wildstar, and other games like WoW, TF2 etc. It suits me!

When you get a moment head on over to the board index and grab our teamspeak info. Log on and chat with us!

I look forward to gaming with you, and see you on Nexus!

Thanks Nionya!

Nothing wrong with whimsical! My whole deal with realistic graphics, and this is especially for MMOs, is that I already look at real life 24/7 so why would I want to reproduce that into something I may have to stare at 8 hours a day? Probably in the minority there though lol. TF2 is great fun and the new WoW character models are pretty impressive as well - shows that that engine can still hang 10 years later. Have you tried Loadout? If you like TF2 it might be up your alley. The character models are pretty well done imo.

I got the TS info all added and bookmarked! I'll hop on tonight when there will probably be more people on :)

Thanks again for accepting me and see you on Nexus soon!

Welcome! Glad that you didn't burn yourself out, although honestly this game is hard to do that with!
