MMO, FPS and Indie Game Streamer,
Photographer and Video Editor



I’m Mark ou Cheng, aka pretendasaur. I’m a streamer and content creator covering MMOs, FPSes, Indie and cosy games.

I create a space around videos games that is respectful, creatively curious and occasionally over the top. I’m also a professional video editor and photographer with over 13 years of production, fashion and advertising experience (check that out here)!

The main MMO games in my rotation are World of Warcraft, Guild Wars 2, and Throne and Liberty. For FPSes it’s Rainbow 6 Siege, Valorant and Overwatch 2.

And the most recent indies I’ve covered are Caravan Sandwitch, Star Trucker, Dungeons of Hinterberg, Fields of Mistra and Schim!

I’m also a queer activist promoting underrepresented voices in both the creator and the media industry. I’ve published a feature in the Journal of Creative Pursuit on racism, assimilation and food.

I’m based in Central London, United Kingdom.
