Do you play Persona 5 and are hooked with the soundtrack? Pretend you're the king of the Japanese underworld in Yakuza? Traverse all over the Continent as Geralt with your trusty steed horse companion, Roach in The Witcher 3 looking for opponents to play Gwent and win rare cards and decks? Had the original Tamagotchi toys back in the mid to late 90's and always struggled to keep it alive for a sufficient period? What type of attire did you dress your character up in Animal Crossing: New Horizons? Or did you own the original PlayStation and were amazed by the 3D graphics in Tomb Raider?

If so, Roma's knowledge and experience is worth investing in. In addition to this we see she is a fan of the Fallout series. A major example of this is a 2015 YouTube video discussing the character customisation on Xbox's Fallout 4. Along with this, her cartoon logo (shown above) is a reference to Fallouts iconic Vault Boy.
