My name is Yogdog, and I'm a strategy game streamer from the UK. I first made my foray into streaming in May 2017, and I've been streaming since then. I've also been streaming every day since January 1st 2021. I mostly play strategy games, with a couple of RPG's and shooters mixed in here and there.
I hope that you enjoy my game play, and that this utterly thrilling paragraph from me isn't so boring that you tune out of my stream!
A quick note: I have autism and sometimes I struggle in social situations, and I often talk much more than I probably should. Other streams I'll be quieter than usual. I usually take jokes etc quite literally and struggle to wrap my head around them and they can confuse me unless explained. I apologise if this happens at some point, but thought I would point out there is a possibility this can happen!
I host a charity fundraiser every 100 days of streaming, and so far we have managed to raise funds for the following charities. I'm always open for any future charity suggestions for these streams;
Mind - £279 - 5/5/24
Glasgow Childrens Hospital - £141 - 10/10/23
MSF/Doctors without Borders - £279.56 - August/September 2022
Alder Hey childrens hospital - £635 - 17/05/22
MacMillan Cancer Support - £520.37 - 4/2/2022
Cheshire Autism Practical Support - £280 - 27/10/2021
MindOut (mental health support for the LGBTQ community in the UK) - £180 - 19/07/2021
Mind (mental health support charity in the UK) - £262.96 - 10/4/2021
I tend to use any money I earn from the stream to buy games to either play onstream, or to use as giveaways for the various charity streams I do every 100 days. Any subscription is incredibly generous and thankyou, I appreciate it a lot :)
There are now a few emotes available for subs too, which I hope you find useful. I'm always looking for emote ideas if anyone has any!

In a brief summary; many, many games. Badly most of the time, but I show the occasional glimpse of aptitude.
If it's a strategy game, I'll play it! I'll also play some shooters as well as the occasional RPG.
My favourite games are Paradox titles (particularly Stellaris and Imperator Rome) and the Total War series (Empire: Total War being my fave, Warhammer 2 a close second). I am also very fond of Steel Division 2, Battle Brothers and Battletech.
If you have any suggestions you'd like me to play, please give me a shout in chat!

I'm also a video game reviewer, and generally review strategy games but also the odd shooter here and there. If you want to see my reviews, they can be found here: https://fingerguns.net/author/yogdog/
