Twitch Streamer Series- Part 18

Whether it is to pass the time as a hobby or a full-time job, these streamers enjoy their work and do what they can to make it enjoyable for you too.

1. What is your Twitch name?                                                                                                                          MrDrakeed
2. Is there a special reason you chose that name?                                                                                 It is an anagram of an old chat name I used. And I now use it for most gaming sites, so I figured that would make it easier for people to follow/find me.
3. Why did you become a Twitch Streamer?                                                                                             I was laid up with lower back issues and it helps pass the time away.
4. Why did you choose to stream for Twitch?                                                                                        I chose twitch because I just came across it one night.
5. How long have you been a streamer?                                                                                                 Just a few months now.
6. Do you only stream or do you have another job? If you are comfortable in telling my readers, what is your other job?                                                                                                             Streaming is just a hobby. with the influx of veteran gamers and scantily clad girls dancing for donations I don’t really think I could pull in the audience and subscribers to make a living at it.
7. What are your favorite games to play?                                                                                                    Right now you are most likely to see me streaming Sims 4 and occasionally Diablo 3.
8. What are your favorite games to stream?                                                                                                 See question 7.
9. Do you have any games that you would like to recommend to my readers to play and why?                                                                                                                                                              I recommend your readers make up their own minds. Just because I like something does not mean that they will. We are not clones, we all have our own free wills and tastes in what we like to do.
10. Was it hard to talk to your viewers when you first became a streamer? How long before you became at ease with streaming?                                                                                              The only problem I had talking to people was getting people to actually talk in my streams. I was probably streaming for over a month before some one that was not a troll came in and actually talked about the game I was playing.
11. Would you like to tell my readers anything else about yourself or your channel on Twitch?                                                                                                                                                                 I’m 48, married with 3 grown kids and 1 grand baby. You are never to old to game. I have been playing video games since Pong. (google it if you don’t know) My channel is not really to teach or make money, it’s just something I do as I sit up late at night because I live on a 3rd shift schedule.
