  1. Did y'all watch the triple-i conference thingy?

    There were some interesting games. These are the ones I wishlisted:

    Neverway

    ![media-6]
    OH MY GOD the looks of this game :ablobfoxdundundunowo:. By far the prettiest one of the whole conference.
    I'm a bit unsure about the gameplay because life sims are not usually my thing, but if the story is good then I'll probably love it regardless. What a treat.
    Also! This one has a playable demo available to download right now!
    I already got it hehe. Will be playing it soon.

    Prove You're Human

    ![media-1]
    A new game from the creators of my beloveds 1000XRESIST and Slay the Princess?? Sign me the fuck in.
    And on top of that, it's about AIs going rogue, getting aware and philosophizing about humanity and shit.
    Really thrilled!

    Castlevania: Belmont's Curse

    ![media-2]
    Listen, I'm a simple girl. A female protagonist in a Castlevania game was all it took to convince me.
    Also the game looks GORGEOUS. yes yes yes

    Frostrail

    Over exploited genre? Maybe. But I'm weak for the whole steam machine thing. It looks like a lot of fun and I've got a soft spot for low fidelity 3d graphics.
    I'll be keeping an eye on it for sure.

    Machine Party

    ![media-4]
    A party game from fucking Mike Klubnika. I'm not sure what we did to deserve this, but I'll take it. Hopefully I can find some chooms to play it with when it comes out.
    Awesome.

    over the hill

    ![media-5]
    Comfy car game to play with friends and take in the scenery. This one had me sold from frame 1. There's absolutely no chance I'm not pestering at least my wife and one other friend to play this with me.

    What caught your eye? Please share with me!

    Over the Hill sigue enseñando lo que prometía, un juego de conducción 'cozy', relajado y tranquilo para explorar con tu 4x4, solo o acompañado.

    Para cuando salga (esperemos que este año).

  3. Weirdest thing just happened. Someone I've never met or heard of just asked me on a call in front of a bunch of folks if I've ever heard of or used the application I dedicated 15 years of my life supporting. Including 5 years as its sole product owner.

    I was speechless. A few friends who were on the call laughed at the absurdity. Before I could respond she proceeded to "mansplain" it to me.

    Perhaps the hardest lesson I've had to learn with age is the decline of my own relevancy. No one warned me about becoming irrelevant. Constant reminders that I'm past my prime. Sucks, NGL. #Old #OverTheHill #Irrelevant

  4. And ... it took #Optus over 80 minutes to have a human operator engage in the "Message Us " chat support this morning.

    The #ComplaintResolution person says they're very busy.
    But I can talk with another complaint person!

    #NegativeUX

    I'm thinking Enshitification has a history back to the privatisation of #PublicUtilities like electricity, gas, sewerage, water, & #TelephoneService.
