    Aeternus, signing in

    Now here's a project I can get behind. Didn't have any way to back it financially, but let me be perfectly clear: Piss off with propaganda in games, trice damn it.

    Now, that said, greetings from the Netherlands. 30+ gamer here who's been gaming for well over 2 decades now. Started with old Tetris on a 386. Was part of the good old Shareware era. Was part of the golden days of LAN parties, dialup modems, direct serial port multiplayer. And I can say... The last 10 years have been... meager, as far as good games are concerned. As the quality of the graphics has gone up, the quality of storytelling, narrative, mechanics and gameplay has suffered. And don't get me started on overmonetization...

    A quick history of some of the games I've played into oblivion. Probably forgot some, but meh:
    GWBasic Nibbles
    GWBasic Gorilla
    Tetris
    SimCity 2000
    Doom/Doom 2 (also did extensive level making for it)
    Command and Conquer (+ Covert Ops, + Red Alert 1)
    Dune
    Dune 2
    Simcity 3000
    Transport Tycoon (/OpenTTD)
    Diablo 2
    Star Trek Armada 2
    Neverwinter Nights (Bioware version, not the online one. Also did extensive modding/scripting for multiple communities.)
    Diablo 3
    Freelancer (Also did extensive modding/modeling/scripting for the Discovery mod)
    Homeworld (+Cataclysm +HW2 +Complex mod)
    Perfect World International (would NOT recommend anymore)
    Star Trek Online
    And last but not least, my current top game: Factorio

    Oh, no, that was all hobby stuff. I wasn't even an adult at the time. I've not done any kind of professional gaming related work - though some of the stuff I did for Freelancer Disco and NWN (HavenMod, Cormyr/Dalelands mod) I'm pretty proud of, quality wise.

    Welcome AeternusDoleo! Were you doing mod levels or did you work with id Software back in the day?
