Didn't I just say he seemed familiar? No. Definitely way beyond that.
If memory serves it correctly, there was once a gamer with the exact same name.
Known across the Valve Scream platform for his razor-sharp critiques in game reviews section, especially when it came to game mechanics and monetization.

That was insane, despite claiming he only got to play once a week. I'd heard him recount stories in Virtual Heroes open lobbies—balancing a soul-crushing day job, then rushing home to dive into the game world just to escape, away from reality.
But if I remember it well, that was eight months ago.
