This is Briarstone!

I am very new here and this is my first post; I thought I'd introduce myself. I live in Ontario, Canada and I am currently thirty years of age. I am a big fan of retro-gaming however that is not my main focus. My main focus is in roguelikes (not rougelikes) and to such an end I'm mostly known for my Skyrim Roguelikes where I take a character, my viewers craft a story, and then we live and fight in Skyrim until we die--permadeath, one life.

I started playing games when I was 6 years old, during the 'nintendo-hard' age and since then you'd be hard-pressed to find a AAA title that is difficult to beat. Finishing something was never something I thought about as a kid, I just wanted to play. The majority of people today have this weird notion that games are meant to be beat and then shelved. I'd rather spend the rest of my life on level one rather than be able to beat the damn thing in less than, say, 50 - 100 hours?

I joined this community through a friend of mine, GamerKnoob. He said this forum was a great place to be and told me you all had a Spelunky Challenge going on.

Lord Zelos, while I love retro gaming, I do not currently LP them. What I do do... do-do? ...do, do? ...is play modern indy games (roguelikes and roguelike-likes) as well as mod games (such as Fallout and Skyrim) to resemble something as close to a roguelike-like as possible. :D I love the tension of permadeath.

I do know a device that helps HDTVs to accept oldschool retro consoles and games without lag if you're interested =)

Hey there! Welcome to the Sanctuary and whatnot! :)

<.< >.> Ok. Here's the deal. I haven't seen TheDapperJester give out tea for a while, so I snuck into his base of operations while he was out and took some to give to new people here. So enjoy your free cup! :P

But yeah, seriously (I think...), enjoy your stay here! It's a great place after all! Hope to see you around!

Good day Briarstone, hope you are having a dapper day.

Roguelikes are pretty addicting, I got into them about a year and I have been hooked ever since!

The Spelunky challenge has raised my eyebrow and I may purchase it in the future, due to it looking fun.

Going to take a look at your channel when I have the time, curious to see how you do the Skyrim Roguelike style.
