Current "main run" -XCOM 2 WoTC
Tune in for our evening & Saturday stream which is my main time-block. Outside of things beyond my control, you can always count on me being live to enjoy some Tactical, Strategy, Rogue-like and other challenging games! The X-COM franchise is a staple around here, but look for other challenging and engaging games in the future!
Hey everyone and welcome to my channel! My name is J.D. and I've been an avid gamer and collector of games for many years now and I love to share my passion with others. Beyond gaming I LOVE reading, mostly fantasy novels (I'm a HUGE Tolkien nerd) and am a top tier movie junkie. I've also been a D&D and TTRPG player for 25 + years now. So come hang out, enjoy some gaming, chat about movies and books and anything else, right here in The Echo!
The long and short of it is that I love RPG's, story driven games, and games that really stick with you. I love strategy and tactics, games that make you critically think and are really challenging. The modern era of gaming is all about multiplayer, instant reward, flashy graphics, dull stories and characters you barely remember. However even today a few gems pop up here and there, and I want to play those just as badly. If you want to see a game on the stream and think it fits what we are going for here on The Echo, let me know by sending me a message on twitch.
I want to create and stream high quality content, sharing my collection of and love for great video games. I love games with great stories and characters, but also love the challenge of strategy games, and unforgiving and difficult games. The reward is always so great! I hope to continue to learn and improve at streaming, providing a high quality channel where people can come, sit back, chat and enjoy great games in good company.
The amazing artwork used for my starting and intermission screens was done by an incredible artist by the name of Victoriya Anda, who graciously allowed me to use some of her pieces. Her fantasy and steam-punk artwork caught my eye and creates such an incredible atmosphere I loved it immediately. Below are some links to some of her other incredible works, and a huge thank you to Victoriya!
Here in this channel I hope to Echo the feelings, the fun, the memories we all had playing some of our favorite games. I want to bring back and relive the moments we all shared when the story turned, the plot grew... a character died. I want to give voice to games that were forgotten, or that some of us never really got to know, and find the modern games that evoke the same emotions. So come and join me here, in The Echo, where everyone; me, you, our memories, our moments, our characters and our games, have a voice!
