I'm a loooong-time computer gamer. My first computer was an Apple ][+, and before that I played games on timesharing systems via Teletypes, back in the late 1970s.

My tastes run to high story content games with really meaningful choices. Most "interactive novels" bore me almost as much as a shooter or sports game. I like grand strategy games like the Civilization series, where the entire game becomes an emergent story about a nation and world. And of course I like idea-rich, well-implemented RPGs.

I've played Fallen London for a while now - about 3 years, I think, and even worked on a story for StoryNexus, The Place of Mists. I don't consider that finished but when I started to lose time and interest I made sure it was in a playable state. Fallen London itself is a bit too grindy, but worth a few minutes every couple days to eventually get to new stories.

I was a Sunless Sea Kickstarter backer, and of the games I've backed it's so far the one I've been the happiest about when I saw the finished product. I'm particularly happy at how the play balance has come out compared to the earlier betas.
