Featured MOTM QnA w/Lassusvulpes

31st still counts as May gosh darn it! (posting this after midnight my time) Sorry about the delays everyone, this interview was done all over the month due to my new work schedule.

Hope you still enjoy reading it!

My text is in white, Lassus will be in orange.
=========================
So starting off, what brought you to LV?

Hm, I'd say my Brother using a site. But that ended off in both of us going pop, brought back in November 2019 because I had nothing to do in my room, and I remembered the site. don't question why my join date for this account is jank

You have been pretty prolific in the writing sections since you have been back. Have you always had an interest in writing or did it develop later on?

I think that all depends who you ask, if you ask my Mum. I've always been writing. If you ask people I know, no they'd say it came later on. I think it mostly started after being popped off the site for a while, as I would try and write .. . horridly grammatically incorrect fan fictions. . . i found it one summer night and died of laughter.

What was the first universe you wrote fanfic for?

Pokémon, duh :p . it was a horrible, HORRIBLE. Pokémon fan fiction. I pulled it up after writing my last response to you, and cringed.

hah we all have to start somewhere. What was your first Pokémon game?

Hmmm I think it was . . . Black and White? I don't remember, but that's the main one I remember.

How about your first video game?

something on a leapfrog I think . . . But for a video game I remember, T e r r a r i a . Still love that game to death and have too many hours in it.

I have seen you on there a lot, what made you fall in love with it?

The progression of the game is amazing, you go from struggling killing a green slime , to killing gods with fire chains . It just feels so fluent, and grab a few friends and a lack of sleep, and you got a damn good time
*and the modding community, the modding community is I n s a n e

I have to check it out at some point, always nice to have a building game to chill with. What got you into RPing on LV specifically?

I guess it's because it was simple to just make a story and go with it ? Then before I got popped before, I stuck around the RP section still, as I found that easier then writing stories. Just my general opinion

Have you gotten into Roleplaying games much?
RPG games aren't much of my style, I much prefer roguelikes, that or games where I can be completely stupid (like terraria) and find random things that are stupid .

Ever tried tabletop RPGs like Dungeons and Dragons?
I've tried once, with my Brothers and Mum , we spent one hour arguing about me stealing the face of a crocodile, interesting times.

Its a good playground for random things indeed lol
Ever had ideas of making your own game or helping in game writing?

I mean, I always have ideas for making a video game, but I don't have the coding knowledge to make one, it's just one of those things. Where you want to do something like say . .. Do a backflip, but you lack the knowledge and skill to do it .

Fair enough
Proudest gaming accomplishment?

I'd say. Managing to crash the binding of isaac by killing one enemy. Cause it was funny and amusing to see ... that or killing a boss in terraria when i'm already dead (happens a lot with one of the bosses)

Do you go out of your way to try and find secrets/easter eggs when you game?

Not really, as imo , if i'm searching for them that makes them less enjoyable to find, I want to accidentally stumble onto them instead .

That is a nice way to think about it, I feel like a lot of game devs would agree there.
While we are on gaming, this is a very self-indulgent question for me but favorite Binding of Isaac item?

Deaths touch, without a doubt. it's such a good item

Raw power, always nice, favorite synergy in a roguelike in general?

Anything that can make me move fast, deal damage, and look badass. the three things anyone wants

Hah pretty classic yeah. Keeping onto gaming a bit, you've been streaming on Twitch for some time now, how did that come about?

Uhh , mostly it came up from a person named Doglightning, he streams League of legends. And I went "You know,I wanna stream osu" one day, and now it spiraled into this, hell it's gonna be a year of streaming in just a few days. (as of writing this of course).

Any plans for celebration for the big anniversary?

Yeah, gonna be doing a long ass stream on Saturday, (thursday is the one year, but school) . Planning on getting Baran, Hue, and a couple others in with me to dick around on jackbox in the morning, then plan what i'm doin later on . just basic stuff ngl

Still any celebration is good, its awesome to hear that it's been a year already!
Who would you say are your favorite streamers?

you really putting me on the spotlight here , I'd say Vicksy for the emotes and how stupid the chat can get, 8bitdrummer for the music and vibes, Allfunngamez for sparking a stupid thing called Tweetle beetles, Barandofl for being stupid with me, and that's about it.

What would be your dream gaming collab? like anyone contacts you to be on your stream to game. What game your you playing and who are you playing with?

Hmmm. I'd say the squad I already have . Baran, Hue, and possibly Phantommaxx, (Phantom is a person I mod for, but he sometimes shows up in my streams), and mostly just games where we can dick around all night, say a sandbox game like Space Engineers.

Staying humble
With that I think I will wrap it up actually, is there anything you wanted to let people know about? Shoutouts to do? lol

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
twitch.tv/wagnus, he's a good chill dude.
