Our personal opinions

Olle: I started playing games pretty early, when I was 5 years old my dad bought me a gameboy color. On that I played some racing games, and pokémon. When I was 7 years old, I got an nintendo DS for my birthday. Then I started playing super mario, and mario kart. When i was a little older, I started playing games on the computer. I played “Mulle Meck bygger hus”.

 On later years, around now, I play World of Warcraft, Counter Strike, League of Legends, Battlefield and sometimes CoD. The things that have changed over the years, is that the games I play now is more violent than in my childhood. But pokémon and super mario is violent in another way, right? But it’s more fantasy-like so its not as violent as reality based games.

In my childhood, I didn’t spend very much time on games, but it has changed. Now it’s like my only hobby. But I have learned a lot of english from games, so there is one advantage with games after all! But sometimes I can feel that I play too much. When I feel like that, I go for a walk or do something else for a while. My favorite game is World of Warcraft. I think it’s good because there is so many things to do, you never get bored. For example, you can go questing, play Player vs Player, try to complete some of the many achievements, go in raid or dungeon groups, and much more. My favorite character in WoW is my own character. He is a gnome Death Knight with specialization in Frost. I like it because the class Death Knight is both tanky and deals a lot of damage, and also because it is my only level 90 character, that is the highest level right now. There is no exact “end” of WoW, you can always just start a new character, maybe with different choices than your last one?

Filip: My first game console was Playstation. I started to play Gameboy when i was around six years old and my favorite game was super mario. I get my first Playstation 2 when i was seven years. When i was eight i started to play car games on a computer. When i was 11 years i started to play league of legends and I get my Playstation 3 so I started to play call of duty and it is my favorite game even today. Now i play league of legends and call of duty.

My favorite game is League of Legends because you can play different champions and you play vs different players. The goal with the game is to destroy the enemy base. Before you can do that you need to push a lane and destroy turrets that defend the lane. You play in team and you are 5 on each team. You can play 5 different roles, support-gona help the team and don’t take kills, ad carry-take the kills and the farm, ap carry- going mid and farm and take kills, top- going top and farm and take kills, jungel- go in the jungel and help the other lanes. My favorite lanes are jungel and support.

My favorite champions are Hecarim he is a jungler and Blitzcrank he is a support.

Christoffer: My first console I had was a Playstation 2. I got it when I was six years old. The first time I played on it, I didn’t think it was fun but then I got a game called “Jak and Daxter”. It’s the funniest game I have ever played. Now I only play computer games and it’s really fun. I play League of Legends and World of Warcraft. I just started to play WoW and it’s really fun but it’s taking a while to learn and it’s many new weird words that I don’t know what they mean.

My absolute favorite is LoL. It’s free and it’s a Moba game. It’s free to play but you can buy stuff with real money if you want. If you buy something or not isn’t making any different in the game, you doesn’t get an advantage if you pay. I have wasted pretty much money on it but I play it every day so it’s worth it. My favorite game is League of Legends because you can play the game with your friends or alone.You can choose from 120 champions to play with. You can choose between different game modes like 3vs3 or 5vs5.

In 5vs5 you can choose if you want to play a normal game or if you want to play a ranked game. Ranked games are competitive games and if you win that type of game you get some points called League points. When you reach 100 League Points you come to promotion games for a chance to advance to a higher division. The divisions are Bronze(the lowest),Silver(that’s where I am),Gold,Platinum,Diamond,Challenger. Every division has 5 leagues in it so for example, Bronze has Bronze 1, Bronze 2, Bronze 3, Bronze 4, Bronze 5. Five is the lowest league and from that you climb to league 4 and so on. My favorite champion is Tristana. She is a little blue yordle. She carries a gun that she uses to kill the enemy. She is like a smurf but with a gun. The absolute best with LoL is that it is free to play.

Jesper: I don’t know when I started gaming I just now that I first started to look at what my brother was playing then I know I got my own gameboy, but I used his games when I played but I didn’t play so much only while I was in the car.

After my gameboy I started playing on my computer but I only played one game and not so much, I played Pettson and Findus the game. When I was younger I thought it was funnier too look when my brother played games, but the older I got the more I liked to play myself. Nowadays I play everyday and I play only FPS games, and the FPS game I play is Counter-Strike Global Offensive and there is many Counter-Strike games and I have been playing all of them and I have been playing the game series for over 5 years.

Sometimes I play too much but I don’t think about that while I am playing only when I am going to sleep because sometimes I’m not tired when I am trying to sleep.

My favorite game is Counter-Strike Global Offensive because it’s an fps game and I am best at fps type of games and this game is hard and needs tactics because if you just rush into the enemy team your team will probably lose the round and that makes the game fun, it is two different teams and my favorite team is counter terrorist they are the police and they are fighting against the terrorists. My favorite weapon in the game is the Nova and it is a shotgun that kills the enemy on the first hit if you hit right and if you stand close to the opponent. There are also different maps in the game and my favorite is the Italy map and in that map you are going to save the hostages if you are playing as the police but if you are playing as the terrorist you are going to protect the hostages so the police doesn't take them, this map is fun because neither of the teams have an advantage so it makes it more even.
