Playing Style Description
I'm cautious if I'm playing it the first time. The second time though... well, time to show how we play games here in South Korea. Basically, I try to conserve ammo and approach cautiously on blind playthrough. However on replays, I tend to go a bit more aggressive. For games like Half-Life where I played up to point of exhausion, chaos ensues as I fly through the map destroying everything in the process without worries. I rarely go back reloading save file even if I lost a lot of health because I'm that hard-core. That's why I prefer Opposing Force more than any Half-Life games because it features more enemies, guns and stuff. I like hardcore things.
Playing History
I first played Garry's Mod when I still was in elementary school in June 2008. Back then I had no idea of what "purchasing games" was, so I played with a pirated copy given to me by a brother I knew on the forum. I played the game with him and my friend like that until late 2009, I came to a realization of a thing called Steam. I registered my account on 21 March 2010, followed by that forum brother on July and my friend on October of the same year (I still play with him - 8 years of friendship!) I first bought Orange Box + CS:S + Garry's Mod + Half-Life: Source buldle on 26 May 2010 and continued to expand my library - Anthology pack, L4D, Bioshock, Portal 2, GTA, CS:GO, and so on. I can't believe P2 came out only a year after my registration on Steam! My first favourite game other than GMod was TF2, spent hours on it. I met my first steam friend there. However now I very rarely play the game. Strangely enough, I remember almost nothing on my first memory impression on Half-Life series - it seems as if it was deleted from my memory. This is such a devestation for me indeed. I will never know how playing Half-Life first time feels like! My earliest memory on Half-Life is me playing Questionable Ethics on HL:S on the school public computer one day and a group of girl came up and saw the gameplay, demanding to kill a scientist. This is probably years after my actual first playthrough. I really don't remember what happened on the first day. Now I am a seasoned player on Half-Life. I am very proficient in how to game plays out and stragetically import everything from my memory, such as enemy location and such. My friend mentioned earlier will often be surprised when I predict the location of enemy when playing Sven-Coop, for example. TL;DR: Started out as a small immature kid playing pirated copy of GMod, now a certified Steam user of few thousand of hours of gameplay and over two thousand dollars spent in the account, experienced Half-Life player even memorizing every single enemy location in the game.
