Favorite video game to stream?
EV: My favorite game is Genshin Impact for the artwork and the music in the game. It’s one of the most beautiful games that I have ever played. I stream that a lot. I have also streamed Balan and Dead By Daylight and a bunch of silly, little ones. Genshin is my favorite PC game, but my [favorite] game of all time is Mario Kart! I love that game so much! I am so good at that game and no one can beat me. I would love to find a way to stream Mario Kart because that is what I am really passionate about. I just got a Mario mushroom tattoo because I love that game so much!
