Desslock of PC Gamer

Hey, I'm a big time reader of PC Gamer and of course, the Alternate Lives section (the part on RPG's). Lately I've been wondering about the writer of this section who is referred to as Desslock. The guy often writes mentions Fallout/Black Isle Studios and covered The Fall in the most recent issue. I was curious if anyone knows if this guy is a member of the forum? No real reason why I ask and no expectations that anyone has an answer. Just bored and offering conversation.

See ya later.
 
If you`re talking about PCGamer USA yeah, a few guys must come here for sure, i don`t know if he`s one of them though..
 
I dont know Desslock from PCgamer but I've only read some of them(mostly for the pretty pics lol), but he did have a column at gamespot.com which was updated every couple of months. I heard hes a faggot though.
 
I just got the latest issue of PC gamer (free, I refuse to pay for it), and certainly Desslock keeps an eye on the situation. Here's a snip of the article with the important bits. If people want, I'll scan the article and post it.

A Welcome Fall
Upcoming RPG mixes Fallout stylings with a living world.

...Now another European developer, Silver Style Entertainment (Soldiers of Anarchy), may have a tonic for Fallout fans still gnashing their teeth over the recent shelving of Interplay's unannounced sequel.
As its name suggests, The Fall was definitely inspired by the Fallout series, and is set in the same kind of post-apocalyptic future where Mad Max ganes run rampent...
...Despite their frequent innovations and overseas success, European RPGs are often viewed with skepticism in the North American market... why The Fall has yet to secure a North American publisher. But it its living-world aspects work as intended, The Fall will represent a nice jump forward in the "virtual world" school of RPG design. And roleplayers will have another reason to thank Old Europe.

I actually like this guy, he is being honest ("if its living-world aspects work as intended..." and "nice jump"). If the rest of PC Gamer was like this, I might subscribe.

Anyway, there isn't any obvious member with the name Desslock or the public e-mail of alternatelives@pcgamer.com. Of course, that means nothing. Perhaps we should chant his name until he appears?
 
aye I have no problems with him, though my favorite is still that Wolf guy. The nice thing about Desslock is he doesn't cover all the MMORPG's which I have no way of affording or playing on (I don't have enough time to keep up with everyone else). He does seem to be a big fan of the Europe games though as he often raves about Gothic and his column dedicated to The Fall. But who knows... just a random inquiry.
