Gaming for sure, I like to watch anime too (obviously, come on, I am here.), and I also enjoy reading which is a major bonus if you are into RP like me.
Insect Glaive is pretty easy honestly, Adam Vanko's (gaijinhunter) guide on the glaive itself and how to make bilbobrix/ladytower should cover you fine.
I literally only use it when I am bored and overconfident, I really prefer charge blade. Defense, offense, explosions... what more could I ask for? :D Well, not loosing sharpness when I block, but that's a fair trade off I can live with.
