What's up fellow gaming enthusiasts! My name is Chronomagus, but you can call me Chrono. I have a tickle in my blood for video games. I can't explain it, but they are just magical to me. My background is in Archaeology and Anthropology, so what I do know is that I'm interested in stories, whether I'm telling them myself or they're being told to me. If you too like delving into fantastical universes, and admire the creativity both in and of video games, then you'll feel right at home here. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ **GENRES THAT I COVER** ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⚪ RPGs (all subgenres, with emphasis on JPRGs) ⚪ RTS (think late 90s, early 2000s PC titles) ⚪ Platforming (primarily 3D, occasionally 2D) ⚪ Action-adventure (again, predominantly 3D) ⚪ Shmups / STGs (both vertical and horizontal) ⚪ Simulation (mainly farm, e.g. Harvest Moon) ⚪ Racing (pretty much exclusively oddball titles) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ **KEYWORDS / RECURRING THEMES** ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⚪ Retro / Real Hardware ⚪ Obscure / Rarely Showcased ⚪ Medieval / Historical Fantasy ⚪ Science Fiction ⚪ Cartoon / Animation

In light of my gap year, I'm going to attempt to get back into streaming on a more regular basis. Please note that this is a striving, not a guarantee. Therefore - at least for the time being - the following times serve as guidelines only: *(N.B. currently suspended until further notice!!!)* ⚪ Tuesdays going live between 7 AM - 9 AM ⚪ Fridays going live between 9 PM - 11 PM ⚪ Saturdays going live between 12 PM - 2 PM Be aware that these concern Central European Time (CET) as I'm resident in the Netherlands.

A staple of my channel is that I only stream games using real hardware. I applaud emulation and value its existence, but prefer the former as it gives me more of a sense of a console's history and its intended experience (and on a side note, I won't get spoiled as easily). Besides, I frankly enjoy the process of building custom (capture) setups. Exceptions will of course be made when digital-only releases are concerned, playability issues occur, or when certain titles are simply near impossible to obtain due to rarity or price.

Here you'll find what I'm currently playing, what I've already finished, and suggestions for future streams. If you want to get a sense of what's being covered on this channel, then here's the place to be! Also, whenever I start a new game, I intend on finishing it. So if you want to watch my entire playthrough, you can! All streams are saved and bundled together under ''[Collections](https://www.twitch.tv/chronomagus/videos?filter=collections)''. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ **GAMES THAT I'M CURRENTLY PLAYING** ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⚪ Monster Hunter Freedom (PSP) ⚪ Innocent Life: A Futuristic Harvest Moon (PSP) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ **GAMES THAT I'VE FINISHED** ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⚪ Ever Oasis (3DS) ⚪ Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time (DS) ⚪ The Legend of Heroes II (=III): PotMW (PSP) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ **GAMES THAT'VE BEEN SUGGESTED TO ME** ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⚪ Fantasy Life (3DS) ⚪ Kirby Mass Attack (DS)

Tips are not expected, as my end goal is for the stream to be entertaining and welcoming, not to become the next big thing. I am striving to make the stream better and create more value for subscribers over time though. If you appreciate that, the titles that I stream, or just want to leave a tip regardless, you can click [here](https://streamlabs.com/chronomagus) or on the image above. That's very kind of you, thanks! (:

**Q: Why don't you own any current gen consoles?** A: I love the collecting hobby, but it's expensive - especially for a student. Hence I currently only buy used games for older systems as those are generally more affordable. What's more, there are a ton of games that people have either overlooked or deserve more attention. **Q: Can I send you something?** A: If it's in line with the content of this channel, and if you insist, feel free to send me a private message on Twitch or on Discord, or pop me an email on chronomaguscontactus@gmail.com. **Q: Are you a completionist?** A: No, usually I complete the main story line and enjoy some of the side quests (when they are included), but I do not necessarily do every side quest or collect every item. **Q: Do you do speedruns?** A: No. I have yet to grasp the appeal of that. I prefer doing casual playthroughs while having relaxed conversations with my viewers.
