When did you start streaming? "I actually started streaming when the ps4 first came out in 2013. I played Cod Ghost and warframe."

What made you start wanting to stream?  "Back then I just did it for fun on and off. I wanted to get a little more serious with it after my year tour in Korea so I started buying some equipment. I thought since I like to play games why not try and make it a side hobby while people watched."

What are your favorite games to stream? PC, Console? "Mainly PS4, but I am planning to upgrade my PC next year so I can play steam games like PUBG."

How often do you stream? I was doing it maybe 4 days a week 2 days after work and Friday, Saturday. I’m currently on hiatus due to my wife about to give birth to my second child lol so I've been a bit busy. Plus I’m trying to make my stream space (aka little corner in the living room) more streamer quality.

What do you enjoy outside of streaming? "Cooking food, being in Mississippi by casinos and seafood restaurants, I cant help myself lol. But gotta stay military fit ( which is hard to do with all this good food around)"

Do you see yourself still streaming 10 years from now? "I’ll still be gaming so yes lol."

If you had one piece advice to share with another streamer or to someone thinking about streaming, What would you tell them? "It takes a lot of patience. I would get down a lot because I would only get like 1 lurking viewer the whole stream but it all takes time."

If you had to choose 1 food that you had to eat for the rest of your life, What would you choose and why? "Seafood. I don’t know why I love seafood so much, there is just something about it that makes me crave it. Maybe it's because I’m from Florida lol."

Thank you so much Eldon for your time and this quick interview with you! I hope for nothing more than success and keep going! Please feel free to check out Eldon's Twitch channel here: Risen722
