• Because I like to share the same passion with my friends. And if we can promote this passion in the form of an ASBL (non-profit organization), it is even better.

What is your role in the non-profit organization?

• I am the income / outcome manager and I write articles for our website.

If you could choose, would you have another role within the non-profit organization?

More personally now,

When did you fall into video games?

• Around the age of 6-7 when I had an accident and to keep the time in the hospital going, my parents bought me my first Game Boy and that was where it all started.

What do you find most enjoyable in video games?

• I love games that have a great story to tell and I love games that require the skill to complete a task.

Risky question: Retro or New?

• New

What is your favourite franchise / game?

• I love the Uncharted series and I was a veteran in the very first Call of Duty where I invested hours and hours in Multiplayer mode with my old clan.

If a retro game were to have the right to a Remaster, which game would you choose? (choose a game that has not had a Remaster)

• Starfox Adventures which was released on Gamecube! I have finished this game several times.

What is your favorite console (excluding PC)?

• PS5

You have the opportunity to put yourself in the shoes of a video game producer, present your game to us. Title, graphic style, game style (RPG, FPS, etc.), short summary:

• The playstyle would be Adventure with elements of an RPG like the evolution of his character. As I am fascinated by the history itself and especially the era of the world war, the game is set in the era of the 2nd world war. There are a lot of FPS playing in this era, but I miss any adventure games or RPG in this style.
• I will choose a fairly realistic graphic style with a third character camera.
• Since I'm not too good at inventing names, the title would simply be “WWII”.

Interview of committee members

You will find here a small interview proposed to the members of the committee in order to get to know them better.

Why be part of this non-profit organisation?

• First, I decided to join Brotherhood of the red lion, because I found the idea, to promote every aspect of gaming and to build up a community, of this non-profit organisation more than awesome. Furthermore, I wanted to support my friend Alex (President), who initialised the project. 
• Last but not least, in my opinion gaming still does not get the attention as it should be, gaming is a serious hobby and it connects people.

What is your role in the non-profit organization?

• My main role is treasurer, I ensure that every cent is trackable and that we have at all moments a good overview on our finances. My second role is E-sport manager.

• In addition, I also stream regularly on our Twitch channel and I am also making pictures to promote our streams on social media.
• I am also the scout of our organisation, in terms of streamers. I am always checking on the social media to see if there are any new Luxemburgish streamers, who want to join our crew.
• And last but not least, I write some articles from time to time for our webpage.
• So, as you can see, I am a jack for all trades.

If you could choose, would you have another role within the non-profit organization?

• Absolutely not, because I love doing all those things and I like how our community is growing.

• I started video gaming, with 10 years.

What do you find most enjoyable in video games?

With all the different aspects of mining, brewing beer, fighting, jewellery etc. The gameplay would be like Guildwars 1 and the graphic style similar, but with the standards of nowadays. But in which you can also build your own house beneath the mountain and do your own mining.

More personally now,

When did you fall into video games?

• It started when I was like 6. My brother had a GameCube and I was always watching and I think that’s when I started to enjoy games.

What do you find most enjoyable in video games?

• I’m a big Dark Souls Fan, which means I like challenging games. I enjoy playing challenging games as much as I rage at them. 

Risky question: Retro or New?

• Maybe that’s because I am much younger than the other Members, but I am definitely on the “News” Side of gaming. I am always surprised by what the creators are able to do, doesn’t matter if it’s an awesome story or new graphics.  New games were always the path of progress.

What is your favourite franchise / game?

• My favourite franchise is definitely the Dark Souls Trilogy for now. Before Dark Souls I was always hyped for playing The Legend of Zelda and I still am.

If a retro game were to have the right to a Remaster, which game would you choose? (choose a game that has not had a Remaster) 

• I would definitely choose Majin and the forsaken Kingdom. I played that game when I was like 8 or 9. I played it on PS3. I loved the game and I would definitely buy it when it would get remastered.

What is your favorite console (excluding PC)?

• No comment. xD I do like the Nintendo Switch a lot, but nothing would surpass gaming on a PC. (A better developed VR-Experience might change that., for example Full Body suits.)

You have the opportunity to put yourself in the shoes of a video game producer, present your game to us. Title, graphic style, game style (RPG, FPS, etc.), short summary: 

• The title would be something like “Do or Die!” The graphic style would be like Dark Souls 3, dark, lots of effects,etc.  It would definitely be a Soul’s like game. It would play in our modern Society where the Nuclear Holocaust cause various mutation on animals, who are attacking the Human race. As the protagonist of the story you could choose your starting layout and class, like in the other souls games. You would have to fight those Mutants with guns, swords, etc. The objective is to gather all resources needed to create an antidote that cleanses the World from those mutations. You’ll have to face challenging Boss FIghts in order to get your ressources.

Interview of committee members

You will find here a small interview proposed to the members of the committee in order to get to know them better.

Why be part of this non-profit organization?

At first I was forced to do it, it was like a pact with the Devil lol, then I got a taste for it and I integrated. (stockholm syndrome).

What is your role in the non-profit organization?

I thought I was there for the cultural diversity quota, nah I'm kidding I had an appointment for Alcoholics Anonymous “For a buddy…” and in the end I found myself in a Geek meeting… .. .Euhhhhh from Gamers! To top it off, I didn't understand their language. Luxembourgish, English, German, Portuguese and French have no secrets for me lol, but their languages ​​based on (Avatar, MMO, Buffer, DoT, ESport, Guild….) It wasn't for me.

If you could choose, would you have another role within the non-profit organization?

President without hesitation, the right of death and life over the rest of the non-profit organization would be a tailor-made role for me! ... or EX-Member it depends on who is going to read my interview. But in the meantime I am a Graphic Designer at the ASBL and that's fine for me, I had not put it to the previous question. Too much bullshit kills bullshit.

Which message to send, by this non-profit organization, is the most important for you?

If you are alone, friendless, rejected by society or if you went to the wrong door and had a date at Alcohol ... ... Nah that's not it.
A message to send? Maybe the gathering, without Nationality, without Religion, without Colors, without Politics, just the same passion, the video games.

What do you hope for the future of the non-profit organization?

The success! So that they can pay their members! Finally, let's remain realistic, have the most view to reach as many people as possible and bring together all the gamers to find out who is the strongest! Or mainly to have a Great Brotherhood that shares the same vision.

More personnaly now

When did you fall into video games?

The day BEFORE YESTERDAY, when Richard insisted that I do my interview and that I had to have some basic about video games, but before that around 8/9 years old, I went to my neighbor to play NES, we couldn't afford a living room console at that time. At least that was not the priority. I remember it was Mario and Duck Hunt on the same game with the Nes Zapper.

What do you find most enjoyable in video games?

When Alexandre lends them to you for free. And the freedom to do whatever you want, a huge variety of things for everyone. The possibility to escape at any time from real life. To simply decompress and keep our Youth from the adult world.
