Hello everyone! Seems I am the second that Dracobolt has drawn over. My name is Steven (25, male). I work as a school psychologist, and will very likely drop psych facts I think are cool completely unprompted, so get ready for that. When not working, I like to spend as much of my life playing video games or watching anime as possible. Currently, I'm playing: Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon, Bloodborne, and Urban Legend in Limbo. Favorite games/series include: Pokemon, Touhou, Etrian Odyssey. Touhou in particular has been huge for me lately. Please talk to me about Touhou. I've also just recently gotten into the Souls games, and the Atelier series. My new housemate has a PS3 and just bought a PS4, and I'm hoping to expand my horizons a bit with games, so recommendations are welcome. In terms of anime, the big ones are Madoka Magica and the Fate series. I also really like JoJo and Symphogear. On occasion, I will try to read visual novels. I've read Fate/Stay Night and Umineko, and have Higurashi saved for later. Let's see... I'm trying to get back into drawing and writing again; things I haven't done since the early teen years. Drawing is happening periodically, but writing is rough going. I think I set my expectations too high, while I have no faith in drawing so I don't mind being bad at it starting out. I also collect a lot of figures. I guess that's about it. I look forward to talking with you! |

Hello, it's nice to meet you! You seem like a cool person, so I hope you have fun! Madoka Magica, eh? We have a lot of fans of that here. ^_^

>draco bringing over all these good taste people what a time to be alive Hey Crystal! We talked on Twitter and lamented the power of Clownpiece. Cool psych facts are completely okay with me! Sounds like a good job, too. I work in a Japanese middle school, and I know having a school psychologist there would be super helpful. For example, maybe we could have avoided Madoka Magica if Japan had better mental health support. >.> You already know the gospel of Touhou, so nothing to say there but be sure to drop by the Games topic! I eagerly await Draco trying Imperishable Night soon. I also adore the Souls series, and there's a topic for that as well. A few, actually. In terms of other games to check out on PS3/PS4: Dragon Age and Mass Effect serieses are great, Blazblue fighting game series is basically JRPG visual novel and it's great, and the Ar Tonelico series is one of my favourites. So any of those would be a solid recommendation from me! Anime wise you already have Madoka Magica, Fate, and Symphogear so you're on pretty solid footing. You could check out Kara no Kyoukai, which we were just discussing with Lynx (Nasu writing with Ufotable on animation), and if you can deal with occasional really dumb "fanservice" parts, Monogatari series (Nasu wordiness meets symbolic Shaft animation). Nice to officially meet you! I'm Saturos, and welcome to the Temple of Kraden~! |

@Saturos: Ah, okay, you're the one who got Draco the Touhou game. Why IN, out of curiosity? That one's not too bad to start out, but I'm always curious about motivations for where people should start out. I'm going to check out this games forum immediately, though. That sounds like the place to start. @Peytral: Well peytral, I hope you like disappointment, because I've got a lot of that. @kiki: I'd be happy to! But I am very much a beginner, so I'm not sure how well I could talk about anything technical. It's mostly "I like this art. It is a good art." @Clawford: I'm not sure what Mercury is in this context, but it sounds like that's the place for me to go. @Hinoa: Nice to meet you, Touhou friend! I will have many questions for you about favorite characters/games in the series I am sure. |

@Peytral: So, I'm kinda with Lynx on this one. Carol's my favorite overall. Doll subordinates, alchemy, and the coolest drawback to a power ever in the form of losing memories to gain strength. I love that concept. In terms of major protagonists though, Chris is the favorite. I'm a sucker for the tragic pasts, and after her song at the end of S2E4 my heart melted. I'd be hesitant to pick a second favorite. I like the main cast a lot. If pressed, probably Shirabe, but it's a tougher call to make. @Taltyu: Yes, Etrian Odyssey friend! I never get to talk about these games! Forewarning: I started on EO4, and am kind of intensely biased toward it. I love the Arcanist; it's probably my favorite class in the series, alongside Princess, Dark Hunter, and Hexer. If this wasn't obvious, I really like status buffs and inflicting binds/ailments. Also I'm really salty that EO2U removed Climax from the Dark Hunter's skills. Yes, the skill was broken, but it's what I want! |

@Ian889: I'm not sure how I feel about being consumed this early on. @Gnarlymaple: Draco does the good work. And thank you! Now I feel all official-like. |
