About Dominik Bo?njak

Dominik Bo?njak is a freelance writer from Croatia. He has been writing about games for as long as he can remember and is sure he began doing so professionally in 2010 or thereabouts. If he was forced to pick a favorite genre, he'd go with RPGs, but he wasn't, so he didn't.

Favorite Games

In no particular order: Gothic 1 and 2, Fallout 2 and New Vegas, Persona 3-5, Disco Elysium, Sekiro, TES 3: Morrowind, XCOM 2, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Cyberpunk 2077, The Witcher 3, Hitman: Blood Money, GTA: San Andreas, Hotline Miami, Splinter Cell 1-3, MGS3, Sid Meier's Pirates (the remake), Star Wars: KOTOR, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Assassin's Creed 2, NFS: Underground 2, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat.

Proudest Gaming Achievement

Picking just one is impossible, but beating Sekiro Charmless with Demon Bell on a fresh New Game run is certainly up there; that run only took a year!

Getting into top 500 Hearthstone EU players in 2015 was another memorable moment for me.

In terms of literal achievements, unlocking Persona 4 Golden's Hardcore Risette Fan trophy comes to mind, because it required pouring over spreadsheets for hours on end.

Favorite Console

My favorite console is also my first one, the PlayStation 2. The step up from the kind of games I could play on it compared to my original gaming device, the Pentium II, was quite mind-blowing for the 7-year-old me. It served me well for about a decade or so.
