Yup. I had practically no income during my high school years and earlier, but now that I do have some income, I'm actually able to support the games I like and buy them, which really makes me feel good. And well, I've certainly bought a lot of games considering I have no clue when I'll be able to finish them all (and there are always new games being released too...) I probably went overboard at some point, haha.

I love well-done adventure/RPG games that really makes the player want to explore the world. Light-hearted, simple ones like Pokemon and Atelier Totori (not a very open world in that one though) are my favourite, though I have spent quite a lot of time in darker games such as Fallout 3 too. These days I somewhat prefer action-based RPGs, though turn-based ones are also fine. 3D Fighters like Dead or Alive are also something that I really like, although I don't tend to play them online all that much as I dislike highly competitive online games.

In general though, I'm fine with almost any genre really, but I have a strong preference towards Japanese games simply because I love the moe elements that are abundant in many of them - no other games get me as excited as they do. I also prefer settings that are more light-hearted and distant from the difficulties of reality, but close to the good things of it - I feel Japanese games share this trait more often than western games tend to do. But really, I'll play any game if it seems like it would be great fun, regardless if it is Japanese or not. Only games I avoid are bishounen games, most competitive online games and war games.

How about you? I hope I'm not boring you, as I have a bad habit of writing long, detailed texts. :)
