There’s nothing quite like a long conversation with a long-suffering vampire, but what do you do when you want to talk topics that are a little more down to earth and a little less buried in it? Joy Naomi is here to help! In this issue, she pushes Psychobarbie’s buttons to unlock the gamer within.

When did you start gaming?

Depends on what you mean by actual gaming. I’ve been gaming since old school Atari, first gen Nintendo, but if you mean newer gaming about 2011, I think. MMORP has pretty much just been in the last year.

What game did you start with?

Super Mario Bros? Again, it really depends on what you mean by gaming. I got back into my gaming with Skyrim and it pretty much has been nonstop since then.

What do you game on?

XboxOne, 360, Wii, and Computer. Mostly XboxOne right now.

What do you play now?

I’m hitting Neverwinter pretty hard, but I relapse for Dragon Age Inquisition.

Name your top 5 games:

Skyrim, Kingdom of Amalur, Fallout 4, Saints Row IV, Neverwinter.

What are your major game crushes?

Brynwolf (Skyrim), Dritzz Do’Urden (Neverwinter), Hancock (Fallout 5). Don’t judge.

If you could only play one game for the rest of your life what would it be?

Dragon Age Inquisition, if I could mod it.

If you could have one item/power from a game character what would it be and why?

Uh… The ability to change my body and appearance in a menu every morning?

Any advice for new gamers?

Not really, we all play different. Find what works for you and don’t be afraid to try things. If you’re in a MMO, ignore the tards that mouth off. Never underestimate the power of looking things up before you get frustrated.

Do you prefer computer or console and why?

Honestly I love modding games so I’d be a computer gamer if I had my preference, however I like having my Xbox controller and not being up close to a computer screen as well, so both have their merits. What I want is friggen consoles you can mod like a computer -sighs- Such a fevered dream.
