Isaac's Questionnaire

You're asking about my life? I mean, it's not all that interesting. I feel like everyone who plays Neo-Genis has pretty boring lives irl, that's why they're here. We use it as a form of escapism from our real lives. I could say that I live with my mother and that we don't really have a house cause mom keeps moving for work. But none of that really affects me in here. It doesn't matter if one day I'm in Paris and the next I'm in Vancouver. I'm just, me, here. If anything Neo-Genis is the closest thing I have to a home, only real constant thing in my life beyond my family.

Kinda hard to get any kind of job when I'm moving around so much, mom usually takes care of things. It helps I don't really need much, aside from the necessities. I'm more than fine with my computer and headset, and I keep to myself for the most part. I've tried getting jobs before but even the ones that did hire me were a mess with how much we moved. Sometimes my pay would be weeks late because it got sent to the wrong address. I ended up quitting that job, mostly for the sake of my employer. She was a nice lady and I didn't want to be a hassle for her.

I mean, it's not some big thing, do I need some big ambition? I just want to relax and have fun. Sometimes you don't need some big goal or idea for the world. Sometimes it's about just living in the moment and enjoying what you have. This isn't large thing, I'm not trying to get wrapped up in some big thing. I just want to take time and enjoy life. It's... Something I don't get to do a lot irl.

I'm not here to lay down my life for some noble cause

I'm not here to slay the villain and save the kingdom

I'm here for me. That is the be all end all of my goals in Neo-Genis right now.

I... I'm... sorry, just, give me a sec...

I... Think it would be when my dad passed away. I... didn't know him much, and my mom won't talk about him. I have a few vague memories of him, but nothing concrete. After it happened, we sold the house and me and my mom have been have been moving from place to place ever since then. Basically my whole life has been like this now. Always on the move, never staying in one place for to long. I've grown used to it, the lack of belonging you know. Is that a fair answer?

My mom is probably who I'm closest to. She's my only real living family. Our relationship is far from perfect, we don't exactly talk all that much, she usually just heads to bed when she gets home from work. She's only grown more distant as of late, I hope her work isn't pushing her too hard. She doesn't need anything else on her plate right now.

Beyond her there isn't really anyone else, I guess there was Ty and Chris, however I don't talk to them much any more. Kind of hard to keep in touch when you're moving around so much. However any time I'm back in my hometown we try and meet up. I really want to see those two again, it's been far far too long. They were talking about possibly picking up some headsets of their own which would be nice. We used to have so much fun playing games together.

It was as okay as it could be. After dad died mom tried her best to take care of me. She did a pretty bang up job in my opinion. Strong morals, I stay out of trouble for the most part. Overall a fine old kid.

School was a bit rough, a decent chunk of it was spent in online classes since I couldn't attend physically. When I did though, I would hang out With Ty or Chris, my two friends.

Ty was a classic Jock, kept me interested in sports and other physical activities meanwhile Chris kept me on track with my studies as well as introducing me to gaming in general.

He's part of the reason I even bought this headset in the first place since he seemed so interested in the idea and thought it would help with my moving around situation.

I wouldn't exactly say I had a perfect childhood, but a pretty good one if I do say so.

Kinda hard when you're moving around a bunch. I don't want to get messed up in in all that long distance garbage. If I'm gonna go through the effort of forming a relationship with someone then I want it to be strong and I want that person to be nearby

Not saying people can't have long distance relationships and have them work out, I'm just saying they're not my cup of tea. I have enough people I know up and vanish on a dime, I don't  need the potential of my significant other doing that to me.

No sir, not gonna happen.

Probably worrying about my mom, I know she's been working real hard lately, and I don't want her to push herself too hard. She does so much for us but I don't want it to come at the cost of her own mental health and security. She does marketing for some big multi-million dollar firm. They fly her, and by extention me, all over the world to go to meetings and expos and all that corperate shpeal. It takes a lot out of her, I see it on her face, even if she doesn't talk about it. Honestly, if it meant she wouldn't have to stress, I would give up all of this. I would never touch Neo-GENIS again if that would solve her problems. However it's not that simple.

Maybe I could try and get a job with her, at least that way she wouldn't have to do it on her own. Maybe then she wouldn't have to work such long hours if we were both bringing in money. She always says I should follow my dreams, but honestly. My dream would be to just see her happy again, I don't think I've seen her genuinely smile in a long time.

Probably my baseball bat. It was the first model I ever made so the fact it got ported over to Neo-GENIS flawlessly was amazing. It was just a simple blender file to start, made it while I was taking a 3d modeling course in hs. But now, it's been with me the whole time I've been in Neo-GENIS. Especially now that that gunsmith customized it, it looks so cool now! It's all shiny and colorful. It honestly looks how I would want it to have looked from the start if I was more skilled. I just never had the experience to do so. I debated going back and changing the model, but it just felt kinda dishonest to do that. Upgrading it feels much better to me. It feels more like a natural progression over a full redo. That's what I want to do after all, build on what is already here.
