The Sims, by Charleyy Hodson
from My Favourite Game Hosted by Play Diaries
My Favourite Game is back once again for a brand new episode following Season 5's debut last week with Ragnar Tørnquist of Red Thread Games talking of Journey as his favourite game. Tonight, Xbox UK and Ireland social media and events manager as well as Xbox On and Forza Monthly host Charleyy Hodson talks of The Sims as her favourite game. Well, I say game... let's say Season 3 premiere guest Jordan Erica Webber has been redeemed. Anyway, six years on from that episode, Charleyy talks of why The Sims has been there for her during pivotal moments in her life (and how she created stuff in the game surrounding them), the frankly crude and absurd names she and her Twitch community have come up with as part of her 100 Babies challenge, that time she sat beside a bin while Keanu Reeves was telling everyone they were breathtaking at E3 and more. We also pick up on a topic that both me and Charleyy as well as four other panellists discussed at the end of 2019 at an EGX panel of being queer in the games industry - a panel that got its own episode of Press Play last year - and how The Sims became a massive place for queer people to find their sexuality and explore the facets around that.
