  • PS3 era, though that’s pretty much on the edge of what retro gaming would be.

    My PS3 mostly became a Rock Band machine, so I didn’t play most of the other big games of the generation. I also associate the console with the poorest reliability of any console I’d ever had, the longest loading times, and the longest startup times. (Needing to download updates before you could play your game)

    I had tons of great gaming memories with the console, even outside of Rock Band, but I just don’t have nostalgia for the era (outside of the golden era of Western-developed Rhythm games).


  • As others have suggested, professional help would probably be the best way to go about it.

    Otherwise, here are my suggestions as a non-professional:

    • Record yourself and listen to yourself speak, maybe even naturally (maybe on the phone?). Listen for the mistakes you’re making so that you can focus on correcting them.
    • Slow down between words and sentences.
    • Plan out your sentences before you start them.
    • Be okay with using filled pauses. You don’t need ums and uhs, but things like “Well…”. Even something like “Let me think about that for a moment” is okay in certain settings.
    • Look up advice for professional speaking. Advice for live streamers can be great to apply to your situation.
