RE: Mega Man X4 Masochist Challenge Part 03
Honestly, no, not really. I'm pretty good at the early Mario games. But there's not another franchise I master quite like the Mega Man games.
As for how long I've been playing them, for about 25 years, haha.
It is entertaining for me to see someone mastering games at a level, which is just pure art. I have been playing Quake since 1999, it is most propably the hardest fps game ever created, where you need months/years of practice to be an average player. In the beginning I felt like leaving the game, beside the horendest modem bills, but I was amazed about the community at that time and the mechanics of the game. So I kept goin to a level where I could compete in team based tournaments. I played Quake (Quake Live) till 2017.
The original Quake? I remember having it, and yes, it was difficult. It was never my absolute favorite, or anything. I actually think it was technically my stepdad's game that he got for himself, but of course, he let me play it, as well. I think we did complete it, but it was never anything I was overly passionate about. Fun game, though.
We also had Quake 2, which was the Quake game I played the most.
I can imagine it taking tons of practice to be good at a Quake game. I've watched some of the online Quake tournament things, and it's pretty insane how some of the hardcores go about it playing it.
Did you ever play Tribes? I had a group of friends who were way into that, the timing and skill of some of those players was insane.
No.
Actually it was Quake 3 Arena. I never played the original Quake 1.
Yes it is crazy the dedication of pros at the highest level of play. I guess that is the reason why it could never gain the popularity again. It just takes too much time for new players to compete with the pros.
