Ori and the Will of the Wisps Review

Posted By: Ryan - March 20, 2020

It has beauty, it has grace, it will punch you in the face.   Ori and the Will of the Wisps is a charming, if mildly unforgiving, follow-up to Ori and the Blind Forest. I never played the first game much, metroidvanias aren’t usually my thing, but I continued to be intrigued by the art style and that intrigue led me to try out the sequel at launch on the Xbox One X, here is our Ori and the Will of the Wisps review. Vibrant col

Sparklite Review: Roguelike

Posted By: Ryan - January 10, 2020

A fun, casual roguelike with a few things to be hammered out. Where does Sparklite fit within the roguelike genre? The press release I was given described it as ‘a unique blend of approachable roguelike elements’, and I’d agree with that. This is definitely at the easier end of the roguelike spectrum, thanks to its short length and forgiving design, and that’s no bad thing. Everything is there to see, but nothing

Whoops, we broke the search but we've fixed it! Last month we rolled out an improvement for the backend of our search and Find a Date feature.

World of Warcraft: Classic - All you need to know

Posted By: GamerDating Team - August 09, 2019

It's coming. It's around the corner. World of Warcraft came out back in 2004, and following that nearly every two years Blizzard rolled out expansions and updates changing World of Warcraft to become an entirely different game, some bits for good, some bits for bad. Regardless of the current state people remembered the fond memory of the original experience. For over a decade, players have been asking Blizzard to release a version o

They are Billions PS4 Review - Zombies will Zomb.

Posted By: Craig - July 04, 2019

They are Billions bringing steampunk zombie apolcalypse to consoles.   Real Time Strategy games are one of those genres that I’ve always enjoyed but have never really been that good at. I’d panic at the first site of a Zerg rush, I’d play on Easy in Dawn of War, I’d absolutely never play an RTS online against another human and I’m the sort of person who would always use the car cheat in Age of Empires becaus

Tips for Writing a Great 'About Me' Section

Posted By: Melissa - October 06, 2015

You’ve made the first step on your quest for love and joined GamerDating. You’ve uploaded a picture and added some of your favorite games to your library, now it is time to fill in your profile information. Your ‘About Me’ section is one of the most important, and sometimes intimidating, pieces of an online dating profile.  

It is difficult to sum ourselves up in a hundred or so words. We’ve gathered a short list of five things to keep in mind while you write:

Know who you’re talking to.

Think about the person you want to find and write with them in mind. If you are looking for someone who loves flowery language, pepper in a couple of your favorite uncommonly used words. Looking for someone who catches your love of obscure movies? Covertly add a couple of your favorite quotes and see who gets it.

Don’t just regurgitate cliches.

Write like you speak and avoid the typical things like “I like long walks on the beach” and “I’m looking for someone with a good sense of humor.”  

Share your values.

Your potential Player 2 wants to know what you believe and what is important to you up front. Leaving this out misses an important opportunity to connect to someone on a deeper level.

Ask a friend to help.

It is sometimes hard to objectively look at ourselves - we can miss what others find to be our best strengths. Having a friend look over your ‘About Me’ section will give you a better idea of how your writing will be perceived.

Don’t make it all about you.

Remember, dating can be scary for everyone involved - if you tell potential matches who you are looking for, those who fit will feel more inclined to contact you because they know they are less likely to be rejected.  

 

Remember that you can always go back and change things so there is no need to put pressure on yourself to be perfect. The most important thing is that the ‘About Me’ section shows your personality. You are awesome and with a little bit of thought, someone will see that shining through.
