Pseu, do gaming w Are you an intrinsically or extrinsically motivated gamer?

I feel that the line is not nearly as sharp. I play a lot of freeform games for extrinsic reasons. Building a cool castle in Minecraft is probably an extrinsic motivation, for example.

When I played Minecraft a whole ton, It was because I was on a server, and I was motivated by impressing my friends, a clear extrinsic motivation.

In WoW, I’m largely motivated to master the game so that I can keep up with my boyfriend, running 20+ dungeons and Heroic (soon Mythic) raids. Another extrinsic motivation.

Etterna, a rhythm game is probably my most intrinsically motivated game. I play it mostly because I enjoy the feeling of mastering a new skill. But even that is extrinsic to some degree, because what most clearly shows my skill? The game praising me with AAs and big streaks. I wouldn’t enjoy Etterna without those things, so I wouldn’t play a gradeless version.

Zo0, do gaming w What’s one of your favorite game soundtracks?

not to be a hater but GTAV Radio station songs are ‘licensed music’ not soundtracks, also you can just fire up spotify or youtube if you just wanna listen to them instead of running GTAV each time

The benefit to the radio stations in game is that you get the silly commercials and commentary too. I like the whole package together. Sometimes I’ll drive around while just listening too, which is fun.

Definitely try out Dorf Romantik on Steam. It’s a non stressful landscape puzzle game. It can also be challenging when you want everything perfect, but it doesn’t need to be.

Tastyzero, do gaming w What’s one of your favorite game soundtracks?

The Dig, FFVII, Indiana Jones and the fate of atlantis, Morrowind, Quake.

Lots more, especially classic midi tracks but those are my top 5 (subject to change of mood and season).

Omegamanthethird,

Shout out to Morrowind. That opening menu BOOM, BOOM-BOOM gives me chills.

Also Final Fantasy VIII, X, XII are some of my favorites of the series. But the franchise really has a lot of top-tier music.

Monument 1 and 2 are great puzzle games well worth the purchase price.

I’m a big fan of BuriedBornes. Great little old school rpg to pick up and play. Lots of in depth mechanics and replayability.

Turious, do gaming w In which game did you spend the most hours?

MMOs were always my thing. I’m almost glad I don’t know exactly how much time I buried into World of Warcraft back in the day. I haven’t touched it in 15 years and it’s probably still in the lead. I play a fair bit of FFXIV these days but not like I did WoW. Asheron’s Call 2 was a big part of my life for a long time but it’s been offline most of my life.

Among recent games I’ve actively played for years, Rocket League and Minecraft are for sure at the top.

atocci, do gaming w In which game did you spend the most hours?

I guess I can't know for sure, but I'd say it has to be Minecraft. I wish there was a way to see the hours I've spent in the Java Edition of the game. If it's not Minecraft though, my second guess would be Rocket League. When I add up the hours across the platforms I've played on, it comes out on top by a small margin.

Semi-Hemi-Demigod, do gaming w In which game did you spend the most hours?
@Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social avatar

For a single game it's Factorio. Steam has me at around 1600 hours.

For a series it's gotta be Civilization. I've been playing since I was in fifth grade. I'd go over to my friend's house when he wasn't home to play Civ I. I'd spend entire weekends in college playing Civ II and III. I had to have my GF hide my Civ V disk so I wouldn't miss deadlines. And now I'm on a full playthrough of all the new civs in the latest DLC.

Probably Minecraft. But I haven't spent an insignificant amount of time in Garry's Mod either.
