What is a game that made you really love playing video games?
Honestly, my first obsession was The Sims way back when. I used to love playing out little stories and scenarios, building houses and families, and making myself in The Sims.
What is your idea of a great gamer date?
My husband and I do gamer dates all the time! We play things like Icarus, Conan Exiles, or some other multiplayer game. Escape Room-type games have been a favorite of ours recently as well! As long as we're able to talk and work together in-game, it's a great time for us.
Who is a companion in a video game that you love/think is awesome?
Dragon Age is my favorite series, and I hold a soft spot in my heart for Alistair and Cullen.

What is a game that made you really love playing video games?
Not a video game but D&D kind of introduced me into the multiplayer gaming world and taught me how to play with others and learn how to “read” people just using voice chat.
What is your idea of a great gamer date?
Just sitting around, eating our favorite foods and playing our favorite games.

What is a game that made you really love playing video games?
SimCity, the original one. My first game was Microsoft Decathlon, which is one i loved and that just made me feel like it was normal and fun to spend my time playing video games. Also, Reader Rabbit and Math Rabbit, around the same time. Then Goldeneye was where i first had so much fun playing with other people.
What is your idea of a great gamer date?
My husband and i used to go to his apartment after work on Friday. We'd order a pizza or get Taco Cabana. We bought a double coffee maker, so we'd make both pots of coffee, sit down to our desks, and play WoW or LotRO until the sun came up. My favorite was in LotRO, when we'd spend the whole time just running around together, crafting and dancing and playing music and doing side quests.
Who is a companion in a video game that you love/think is awesome?
Rabine Saturna. Now, he's not actually a companion or anything. He's just an NPC in WoW who doesn't do or say much of anything, but sometime way back, i just noticed him and i imagined this whole life he'd live and that he was my main's fiance. I used to go visit him every time i went by that town and imagine that he and my main were catching up on everything they'd done in the meantime.
