Grinders Verdict

As someone who grew up in a small town in a rural region of Portugal, technology didn't evolve as quickly so I rapidly develop ways of entertaining myself. Many time i'd watch those iconic TV shows and then play out what I saw and try to replicate the moves and whatnot in my entrance hall. In 2009 it was my first time messing with computerized roleplay. So given i've got some experience behind me, I decided to discuss my thoughts on the current state of Roleplay. If you're unaware of a recent boom that happened via livestreams on Twitch, a server called NoPixel had a lot of huge (10k+ viewership) streamers join in and roleplay on GTA V, which lead to a massive influx of people and a tremendous growth. But with popularity, comes mediocrity so give it a listen and find out what I think about this whole thing!

Role queue in Overwatch brought more organization, that's without a doubt. But, is it really that positive?! Is it really that great? Find out my thoughts on it in the 20th episode of the Grinder's Verdict podcast!

I've been doing this for a bit now and rarely get any interaction with the listeners so if you listen to the Grinder's Verdict then please shoot me an e-mail at [email protected]. Reach out to me for either suggestions, complaints or overall scheduling a conversation. Also join my discord server so that i'm easier to reach whenever!

We live in a world where globalization and today's ease of information, many times equivocate, makes people confused about who they are. I decided to make an episode sharing my opinion on this lack of identity of today's world. Let me know your thoughts once you've gone through it. Do you agree? Do you disagree? If so, why? I'd love to hear what you think about my opinion! You can reach out to me on twitter at grindersverdict or e-mail me to [ [email protected] ].

My experiences with video games have been what I describe in this episode... Feels like most individuals are indeed brainlessly, aimlessly running around.

Big videogame companies are already doing this, however the ones we have to look out for the most are the small "studios". Those "studios" that have the ambition of 10 AAA titles without 90% of the resources. Don't throw money away, yes it's yours and you do whatever you want with it, but you are feeding something very negative! Curious? Listen to the episode!

Popular social media platforms are promoting sexual content in an unhealthy manner, due to its popularity amongst multiple demographics. Including children! And that's not good... Sex is a good thing in life, however when it becomes a product of marketing schemes it becomes something that's not as good as we think. Maybe I'm not explaining myself too well here, but... the episode has all you need to know!

This was meant to be a way of improving my talking capabilities so it was supposed to be a recording just for me or maybe to be released on Patreon. However I decided to share it as a regular episode because it might be helpful towards someone who might question their capabilities like  I do. I doubt myself 90% of the time and I also procrastinate too much due to me doubting myself and again, my capabilities. I believe that with practice comes perfect so doing something like this is incredibly helpful to build confidence.

This one game had one, if not the best voice acting i've ever heard in my life. It made me feel so immersed that I'll never forget it... I also discuss a little bit of sound engineering complexities in video gaming and my thoughts on it.
