# The names Alestes. I’m a Scottish variety streamer hailing from the North East. # Although I’m a variety streamer, I focus a lot on souls and souls-like games, this means there is a lot of swearing, laughter and excuses being thrown around in my streams. ##Background I’ve been playing games for longer than I can remember, I started out with an Amiga 500 and my passion grew from there, this was a time when games came on floppy discs and, depending on the size of the game, lots of them. As time went on, I expanded into consoles and PC gaming and I’ve continued since then. I think this is where my love for souls’ games comes from, I’m used to having to restart when things go horribly wrong.

I don't like rules but I do have some basic ones that I'd like you to follow if you're going to participate in chat: + Be nice to people + No politics or religion + No racism, homophobia, misogyny etc. + No self promotion or link dumping + Just don't be a dick..... It's fairly simple, look after each other, be nice and enjoy yourself. If you break any of these rules then one of the mod team will ban you from the stream.

I'm active on as many social accounts as I can be. Any highlights that I make from my streams will be uploaded to youtube, posts about upcoming streams and or things that interest me will be on the likes of Twitter and Instagram. + [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/therealalestes) + [Twitter](https://www.twitter.com/therealalestes) + [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/therealalestes)
