On the seventh day, the question we have for you is "What is the one genre of gaming that you've enjoyed the most and why?"
For me, it's quite an easy answer, roleplaying games.
I enjoy character building, I enjoy complex and evolving storylines, I enjoy characters with different powers and skills, I enjoy encountering a variety of enemies, and killing things like dragons and beholders.
As to why? Perhaps because that's just what I grew up with the most. Strategic Simulations, Inc. pretty much was how I spent a few years of my life, rolled over into other RPGs, and eventually into MMOs in the late 90s, which then in turn led to me even getting into working with IGN/Vault Network some 16 ears ago.
NoboFeed editor Atilla Turan writes - The Rogue Prince of Persia is fun if you are very much keen to playing 2D roguelike beat ‘em ups, but if you haven’t dived into the roguelike craze since it started, you might have problems getting used to how it plays and reacts to your choices.
NoobFeed editor Jay Claassen writes - Botany Manor is definitely a must-play for anybody who enjoys a little brain scratching through puzzles but also for anybody who enjoys simplicity’s strength. Between the relaxed environments and the unique flowers and their odd growing conditions, there’s never really a dull moment to be had as you explore.

It has always been RPGs, since I played A Link to the Past and Secret of Mana on the SNES as a kid. I always liked stories and epic adventures, growing up watching movies with Ray Harryhausen monsters, and things like Legend and Flash Gordon.
I was a big reader too, and being able to interact with an adventure, instead of just imagining it was amazing.
I'm personally a huge fan of RPG's cause they allow you to mold your character and get creative with it. You have tons of choices in terms of weapons, armors and skills and you can invest time in those things that cater to you more. Not to forget some even allow dialogue and choices that affects your gameplay, story and world around you. This freedom of choice is something i really cherish in games and makes me want to try out new stuff and keeps it fresh for a longer period of time.
Sadly it's just plain shooters. Frag or be frag and repeat.
RPGs, specifically JRPGs. From the first time I played Final Fantasy 7, I was hooked. Can't believe I didn't try them sooner on earlier consoles.
Rpgs I just love having character progression to have something to work towards
