By completely blowing off my BS you have passed the first trial
I know its important to be honest and I'm at least going to mention that I love gaming in my OK Cupid profile. But should I go farther and mention specific games? If so which ones?

For example saying I like mario kart/party shows that I'm a pretty relaxed funloving guy. Or I could say dark souls and if she asks hopefully I can explain how I'm the type of guy that won't give up when things get fiendishly and sometimes unfairly difficult.

Please advise.

Oh yeah. I should probably put my favorite League of Legends heros. But then again that opens me up to a whole other level of judgement.

I once really talked to a girl about league of legends and she asked me what league I was in.

I told her I was in Gold and that I play marksmen and support a lot. She then kept pestering me about what my username was and all this business.

The important part is that this was at the gym when my buddy and I were talking about league. She was ugly and smelled worse that me at the end of my workout. I never saw her again.

Just put as much detail about your gaming habits as possible, otherwise how will you find your soulmate who can appreciate the full spread of your fine games with you?

Make clear that you allowed the gypsy alien race to be massacred because their robot enemies would be more valuable to the war effort

The only game worth mentioning is Duke Nukem, as it lets her know that you're willing to do bad things if it makes you a badass.

I demand Fallout NV mod lists from potential mates, so I can see if they have conflicts or missing master files, and judge them based on that.
