What Percentage of the Games You Play Do You Actually Finish?
I always try and finish the main story of the games I play, but sometimes, I just can't bring myself to do it. If I don't care enough about the story and the gameplay is nothing special, I have no problem cutting a playthrough short and moving on to the next game. I still finish around 75% of the games that I play, although, if we're talking 100% completion, that figure does drop off quite sharply to about 10%. I expect for those with Game Pass or PS Plus, those percentages will be a lot lower.

Could Stellar Blade Be Game of the Year? Why/Why Not?
Stellar Blade was originally thought to be one of the biggest games coming to the PlayStation this year; however, it soon started to receive negative criticism, especially regarding its character design. In spite of that, the game was announced as Sony's Players' Choice game for April 2024. The game is starting to look like a good contender for Game of the Year, even though it had a rocky start. I think that it stands a decent chance, but with games like Dragon's Dogma 2, Helldivers 2, Hades 2, and so many other great games, the competition could be tough.

Opinion: Blood Loss Builds In Elden Ring Are Too Strong
All roads lead to Blood Loss builds in Elden Ring. If you're having trouble with a boss, just put a Blood infusion on a fast-hitting weapon, wear some Arcane-boosting items, and you're ready to win. Sure, it won't against enemies that don't have blood to lose, but against everything else, you're better off using a Blood Loss build unless you're investing heavily in magic.

What's Your Most Broken Baldur's Gate 3 Multiclass Combination?
Either the classic Gloomstalker Assassin Ranger/Rogue build, which was perhaps the most powerful sniper build I've played so far, orr the Karlach Barbarian build I progressed, which utilizes the Berserker Barbarian and Champion Fighter Classes. Adding feats such as Savage Attacker, Great Weapon Master, and Tavern Brawler makes one weapon from the Goblin Camp completely overpowered - the Returning Pike (and later, Nyrulna). With that build, I was consistently dealing 30-50 damage per turn and killing one or more enemies every round of combat before even reaching the invasion of Emerald Grove/confrontation with Kagha, which felt absolutely ridiculous at times (in the best way).

Which Game Has The Most Fun Character Customization?
Video games have come a long way in the past few years, allowing players to get even more involved than before. Whether the graphics help them feel like they're in the world or the gaming mechanics make the game feel real, games are impressive. One thing that helps players get into the world is being able to design their character just right, and games with in-depth character creators draw in more players. In recent years, I have really enjoyed Baldur's Gate 3's character creation. I spend more time creating a character than I do anything else, and I know people who have bought the game just for the character creator. However, there could be even better ones out there, just waiting to be found.

What's Been Your Favorite Shadow of the Erdtree Boss Fight?
I've gone back and forth on this topic for some time over the past two weeks, but I think I'd have to go with Divine Beast Dancing Lion. There are a few reasons for this pick. First off, the boss design really captured my attention. From the first time I saw it in the trailers, I was already intrigued, but then to face it head on - what a rush! Something about the movement and flowing, dancing vibe it has just captivated me like no other boss has in the DLC. Secondly, the changing visual elements of the boss throughout the fight really make for fantastic eye candy (albeit extremely dangerous eye candy.) Seeing the second phase switch between lightning, frost and wind really sold it for me. And let's be real, the alternating elements also meant I had time to reliably heal without getting hit. And finally, the OST. To be fair, the music throughout the entire DLC is phenomenal, but THIS song in particular really stood out to me. I've no doubt they went all out on this boss fight because D
