中の人について

Aeris is my wife.
My interests include games, code, anime, in-line skates, compsci, operating systems, cats, writing, net/comp security, music, coffee, light novels, manga, studying, meditation, and the concept of consciousness. Decently proficient in Japanese.

I like virtual worlds, and the human to human interactions that happen within them. Games are mainly compelling to me when they have a lot of mechanical nuance, emergent interactions, and meticulous design. I probably like game design more than I like playing games.

For tech, I enjoy the software architecting process, but I’m an infrastructure engineer by trade. In the current tech landscape, it’s important to focus on humanetech principles above all else. My current outlook on the industry is bleak, but I am clinging onto shreds of hope that we can make technology work for people over corporations.

Favorite games
I have played roughly 2100 games and beaten around a third of them. Below is a list of those games I personally rate 9.5 or higher. For the MMOs listed, there is a cutoff period where updates always eventually ruin the game, so I’ve included my [favorite era].
