Other Information

In a few sentences, how would you describe yourself to us?
When I first join a group of people I can be a bit shy at first, due to some anxiety issues. But once I'm past that point I'm normally pretty much always down to chat or game whenever the opportunity comes up. I can get a bit salty sometimes, no point in lying about that, but I do try to keep it under the hood and, most importantly, I don't take it out on other people.

In a few sentences, how would you describe your gaming habits?
I play games more often than not. I've always favored First Person Shooters over others genres, but I'll play almost anything.

What are you looking for from this community?
More people to play games with the better. It's always nice being able to easily group up with people you know are both friendly, and competent.

How did you hear about the Skjaldborg?
Dibpwnt in the warframe clan (Not sure what his forum name or discord name is) invited me, but Magnus was the one that brought me to the discord and suggested I sign up proper.

What do you feel you will bring to the community?
I would hope to be a person that people would want to hang out and play with, but beyond that I do try to make an effort to help out those who want/need it whenever I'm with them. I can also a a pretty good Hank Hill impression, sometimes.

On a scale of 1-10, with 1 being very casual, and 10 being very hardcore what is your ATTITUDE?
This is a bit hard to answer, because I've never really thought about how "hardcore" my attitude is. I try to stay relaxed and calm most of the time, but I'm not immune to frustration if things just ain't going right. I'd put myself at maybe like 6-7.

How many hours per week do you estimate you play online games?
40+

What time zone do you normally game in?
PST

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know.
I make a damn good Beef Wellington.

Game Interest

What online multiplayer games do you play regularly?
Warframe
Fallout 76
I'd probably be playing a lot more, but my hardware is a bit old and I can't afford to buy the games that I've been looking at. There's also probably more games that I'm forgetting, so feel free to ask about certain games.

What is your account name(s) for those games? If possible please link to your profile as well.
Obtuse_Rubber_Goose for Warframe
Obtuse_Goose for 76
id/Obtuse_Goose for Steam
Obtuse_Goose#3418 for Discord

And all sorts of variation of those for pretty much everything else.

What kind of roles do you like to play?
Really anything that's needed in the group. I've always been a bit of a fill when it comes down to it, but I love all of them equally.

Do you prefer heavy roleplay or more casual story interaction?
Both are good, I don't really prefer one over the other. It mostly depends on how into it the rest of the group is.

 

I used to play a lot of Battlefield 4, but I fell off that wagon a while back. Otherwise my two most played shooters are Overwatch and TF2. I also played Rainbow Six: Siege for most of this year but that game has soured with me. I'm sure there's more that I'm having trouble remembering, but I'm always down to try something new.

 

Let me see your Hank Hill impression!

What other kind of stuff are you into outside of games?

 

Well, even when I'm not playing games I end up doing something related to them. More often than not I'm either mucking about with the level editor for source games, or trying to bumble my way through learning blender. I also like to cook, as it's both fun and results in something you can eat, which is just a win-win.
