Just like any hobby, video games take a certain amount of persistence to really sink your teeth into. Daunting stuff! But LNG is here to help. Follow the guidelines below and you’ll be a gamer in no time flat.
Twitch
A great point of entry into the world of games begins with super-popular streaming platform, Twitch. Watching a streamer play and talk games for 8-hours straight can bring you up to speed quickly. I suggest checking out the likes of Ninja, Nickmercs, Shroud and Summit1G. Streamers who appeal to the masses and play a wide variety of games.
NOTE: As great as spectating is however, it’ll never beat diving head first into a game yourself!
Tetris 99 & Other Puzzlers
Video games come in all shapes and sizes. So, for something different, play Tetris 99. This game will hook you something fierce, no doubt. If Tetris 99 doesn’t do it for you maybe jump into one of the many Picross games. Plenty of game options for the person who doesn’t want the usual shoot-em-up. Just anything to get you in front of the TV with a controller in your hand.
Enjoy the Classics
Some games have withstood the test of time. From Mario to Zelda, there are titles that tower above the rest. They greatly appeal to everyone also. Try those out, they good. Verrrry good.
Jump Into the Hardcore Stuff
Why wait? Fire up WoW. Fire up FF7 Remake. Fire up CoD. When it comes to gaming, it’s best to go all in, baby.
Let me know in the comments if any or ALL of these suggestions get you into the gaming spirit. Good luck on this fine journey!
