Mr. Dad versus the Boys

I started (re)playing Multiversus a couple of days ago. And then yesterday Kuromochiii joined me. First we played against each other (PvP or Player vs Player) on the couch. After that we did  coop PVE (Player vs Environment) missions where he played on his PC and I on the PS5.  Since we were playing cross platform, we couldn't talk to each other via gamechat (if that exists), so we called each other via Discord. I felt very modern and very old at the same time. I connected to Discord for several games (to follow updates etc.), but I never have gotten the hang of it. Which is weird, because it seems to be based on chatrooms and forums and I grew up with those. I even hosted several in my twenties.

  Hi guys, I'm back! How are you doing? Could I subtly disguise the fact that I have't written anything in over three years, after an insane amount of posts (well, six) in a four month period back in late 2020 / start 2021? I guess not. So I'll have to bring you up to speed a bit. First of all, we all got older. Which should not come as a total surprise. But we had some significant milestones. Onyx became 21, Kuromochiii is now 16 and Mr. Dad has his 50th birthday in 2 months. And still all into games, comics/manga, animated TV shows & movies/anime and other nerd-stuff. Onyx is currently doing his second year of Game Artist at the Mediacollege Amsterdam. This is where he met his current girlfriend, who is also an aspiring game artist and tattoo artist. Within the Game Artist course, Onyx chose the 3D modeling track. Besides school he still plays guitar a lot, does photography, going to rock concerts (like Polyphia) and Ikea and of course there is the gaming. Kuromochii...
