One on One with Fabio

[Captain Fabio]

Soooooo, I thought I would open up to allow people to ask me questions that they might have on their mind.

My name is Will and I am 23 years old. I have been around on PC for over 7 years and I have been on the staff for nearly 3 years. I was first moderator of Video Games (Other Games as it once was) and now I am an Super Moderator. I was born and raised in the north of England and currently live in Bristol (South England) and I am working as an IT Technician for a University; I have a degree in Games Technology at the same University I am working for.

I have a wide range of hobbies, including playing Video Games, discovering new music, playing Yu-Gi-Oh! and so much more. I can play the Piano and sing. I love sports; football, rugby, swimming and more.
I have a lovely girlfriend who I met on here and we have been together for nearly a year. (Kura if anyone is wondering! :3)

So, that is all. Feel free to ask anything, but nothing too personal thank you. Anything I deem to be too personal, I will not answer.​

Why do you think you changed after you were promoted from VG? Or, if that's inappropriate, are you happy with how you are now? :3

Can I come to you if I wanna know anything about the VG industry/Game development as a whole? :p Also, why do you like Pyramid Head so much?

What is one thing you admire about your personality?
What is one thing you think you need to improve on in regards to your personality?

Hi Fabio! It was good to meet you yesterday (even if it was for a not so great reason =P)

What would you say your favorite thing to play on piano is?

Anything you would change about yourself?

In our many fun and delightful discussions over the years, you've described yourself as being a troll once upon a time. Those times I indeed remember, lol. Matt and Ryan and et cetera. But my question is - how hard, or easy, was it to throw yourself into the idea of bettering the community instead of uh, playing around with it?

I feel I become more of a hard ass. I felt like I needed to become more professional, because I moved to a position that has a higher level of power and commitment. However, that isn't the case, just because I am a part of the H-Staff, doesn't mean I need to become a stone faced dude! ;)
I think I am happier now than I was in the earlier days. :)

Of course you can talk to me about anything. I can certainly talk to you about my knowledge of the industry and my opinions on everything. AND BECAUSE HE IS COOL!​

Away from PC, I am a pretty relaxed and easy going guy. You can ask any of the people who have met up with me IRL or speak to me on Skype, I am actually pretty laid back. Some people say that I am two different people without meaning to be, but I am breaking down that barrier and just being me.

I think I just need to stop being a hard ass at times. There is a time and a place.​

Like wise! :3

Favourite thing to play would be FFVII - Those Who Fight. Now, I am not saying I can play it perfectly like the video, but I have big hands, so I can reach a lot of the crazy notes; ask Kura as she has seen me play bits.

I wouldn't 'change' anything, just amend a few things. :3​

Oh those days were dark times indeed. Haha. I do believe we were on the completely different sides of PC at tone point, but alas.

It was the realisation, and maybe also growing up, that I just decided trying to burn something that won't is pointless. Trying to burn something that has no reason to be burnt is pointless. I felt that turning everything around and helping the community, instead of hindering it, would be a good change of pace and I haven't looked back since. :)​

Was it fun working for that radio station? I remember when you did. :3

What's the worst game you've ever played?

Favorite YGO monster? Fave character too, assuming you've watched the anime to some degree, haha.

How do you feel about apples?

If you could change your username, what would you change it to?

 

[moon]

Dear Will. Will you ever change your avatar? Or rather, why do you never change your avatar?

 

[Nihilego]

What's something you wish you'd done more of at uni, and what's something you wish you'd done less of?

 

[Miss Doronjo]

Hey, so, what was the first video game you've ever played?

How long have you been playing the piano?

Would you ever consider a musical career?

1) It was very fun. I really enjoyed being on the radio and getting to play the music that I loved. It was really cool to have people come into the studio too and just hear about people who were listening in on the show. And obviously, giving shout outs! ;) You remember them? :3

2) Worst game is Superman 64... hands down.

3) Vampire Lord is my favourite monster. I got this ages and ages ago in a pack when it first came out and I loved the card. It just has really cool art and a cool effect at the time! Of course I have watched the Anime! :P My favourite is Pegasus; his character and just overall awesomeness wins me over every time.

4) I LOVE APPLES!

5) I would change it back to 'Alinthea'.​

1) I don't know if I will! :O I just like the avatar, so no need to change unless I find something that I prefer.​

​

What's something you wish you'd done more of at uni, and what's something you wish you'd done less of?

1) I should have really used the on campus gym more in the three years I was there! XD

2) Nothing really. I had a good balance imo and don't really regret anything. Well, that is a lie. Which I hadn't smoked, but I don't smoke any more so that is all in the past​

​

Hey, so, what was the first video game you've ever played?

Would you ever consider a musical career?

1) Prince of Persia, the very first one! :3

2) I have been playing since I was young, in primary school, so that would be at least 10 years. I, however, don't have a piano where I am now, so I am rather rusty.

3) I love the idea of a musical career, but I don't think I am good enough for it.​
