I just commented further down before I saw this so I just wanted to say, I'm a 38 year old mum with a disability caused by a condition that badly affects my joints and I don't usually identify so closely with anyone in the communities of the games I enjoy so I've always really appreciated you being such a huge presence on the sub. I love the way you're so helpful and patient with anyone needing help and having now heard this interview, I love your outlook. Although I've only really chatted with you once myself I really appreciate you being there, especially now I know you're going against doctor's orders, but do look after yourself first and foremost.
@@cathyannis83 Thank you so much for this Catherine! I appreciate you and everyone in the community. We are more family than just a community! I hope your health issues don’t take you away from what you love, what we all love! RA is no joke, and I was diagnosed with it two years ago and have been experimenting with so many different drugs, so far Cimzia seems to keep it at bay better than the others I have tried(altho injecting myself monthly sucks :( ) Be well ❤️
@@GamerMom-1969 I'm glad you've found something that's giving you some relief and I hope it stays that way. My grandma had RA and I remember how she suffered. I have hypermobile joint syndrome and fibromyalgia so not a fun mix but it mostly affects the joints in my hips down to my feet except on really bad days so luckily it doesn't affect me using my controller too much unless I'm having a bad flare up. Gaming is an excellent escape! Much love to you and yours 💜
I love GamerMom! As a nearly 40 year old mother who is disabled from a degenerative condition that affects my joints, I really relate to her and I kind of wish we were friends! I've only spoken to her on the sub once or twice but I've seen her comments so many times and the way she deals with people is so kind and helpful and patient and I'm just so glad she's part of the community 💜
I am a gamermom, more like 1974 lol, but DI is my all time favorite and its so crazy to hear someone else like you that you can relate to so much! I have AS, close to RA. I know we're more of a rare breed, but SO nice to hear someone like you! I'm a PlayStation girl, but no hate! Lol
I said the same thing and I'm so glad to read your comment too! I'm 1984, also Playstation lol and I have fibro & hypermobile joint syndrome. I'm so glad to know you and gamermom are out there, makes me feel like less of an anomaly as it's not often I can relate to other gamers outside of the game itself.
Gamermom is into RPG's to, wow! I've also known Techland since Dead Island and they're easily my favourite developer. Gotta say though, she's got at least twice the playtime in Dying Light than me, last I checked I had around 400 hours. I am also a casual gamer, been gaming most of my life and I'm 23 (still quite young lol) PvP ain't my thing either, I like how relatable we are😅 Edit: I did read something about defending outposts in DL2, here's hoping. I have played on Xbox before but the controller doesn't feel user friendly to me. I didn't like having my left thumb stretched out is all...
This definitely gives me more of an understanding of who she is. So besides being a massive fan, why all the attention from the devs, right time, right place?
Why do people keep thinking that Renegades are better than the PKs? I mean when you boil it down people who say the PKs are bad simply say "They seem mean"

That was so great, GamerMom helped me plenty of times on the DL subreddit and it is definitely one of the most non toxic ones you can find thanks to her. RA sucks, how you get some relief, best of luck legend!
I love how everyone is saying Reddit I actually met her in game with my friend zed and sgt and we were completely oblivious. Well met gamermom if you ever see this
No matter how hard i try, i just can't imagine a 52 yr old woman playing a parkour zombie game the amount of time that i as a 15 yr old spend on that game, not that its wrong, but I just can't visualize it in my mind.
I know how feel. She blocked me on Insta for no reason. At least she doesn't know what my name is on reddit so I can still be on the discord group. I am with you too when I say I am not her fan.
@@mackzy3964 She seems an OK person but I also wasn't a fan of her posting her personal issues all over the sub....like we are there talking about a video game and she is there asking the DL community for sympathy for internet likes (and techland goodies) kind of pathetic really. As for the sub and discord you/I can just make another account to shitpost it's all anonymous shit, you don't even need to make a burner email. Knowing that it is kind of retarded to ban people over trivial things anyway, as if we wanted to troll the shit out of it we could just create burners every 45 second and shitpost! Idgaf tbh it is just stupid people trying to "own" their little slice of the internet. I just DM people on the sub if they ask a question and I can give them an answer others on the sub cannot. Still I didn't deserve to be banned and before that I was an active and helpful member of the sub.
@Stinkyremy I get what you mean it is a bit pathetic to do crap like that and most random personal stuff on a sub dedicated to a game. I also think she isn't a bad person but I think it's crappy of her to ban/block random people for no reason.
You should definitely do a conversation with Aussie GG. If you don't know who he is, he's a Dying Light Speedrunner who is backed by Techland themselves
They are all lies…this is someone impersonating me 😜😎

NO WAY! Two legends in the one video! 😭😭😭🖤🦇
i remember following the progress of her irl last hope it was so cool to see lul
Didn’t expect a crossover between 2 legends
I'm so thankful for this interview! really interesting concept
I completely agree about the camp system and I want something akin to that in DL2 also

Petition to get gamermom to learn the story of left 4 dead cause hearing her say that there wasn’t a story made me so sad
yes
Hi
Why do people keep thinking that Renegades are better than the PKs? I mean when you boil it down people who say the PKs are bad simply say "They seem mean"
It seems like every faction is morally grey. By the gameplay I've seen, they all have their downsides.
Hello it's me Benny
Same
same
i remember seeing her on the DL subreddit, she’s a legend.
An icon in the Dying Light community.
490 subs isnt a icon 😂😂😂
@@deznuts6028 L
@@deznuts6028 she’s a big figure and moderator on the subreddit. Not the RUclips side of things

I’m so glad I was able to help you! I never really know where my advise takes players most times :)
The safe zone is such a good name please keep it
I actualy did not know that people like gamermom1969 play dying light big respect I love this kinda stuff
I love how everyone is saying Reddit I actually met her in game with my friend zed and sgt and we were completely oblivious. Well met gamermom if you ever see this
☺️
She is the best part of the community
No matter how hard i try, i just can't imagine a 52 yr old woman playing a parkour zombie game the amount of time that i as a 15 yr old spend on that game, not that its wrong, but I just can't visualize it in my mind.
She helped me make my last hope replica she really is a nice person :)
She's amazing, right?
this series is fucking awesome
Gamermom banned me form the DL sub reddit just for helping the community.
I am not a fan

Please put more sense so the vid be better

He is not the Night Hunter he is a sentient volatile
And he's always going to be a sentient volatile
