iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

My local, which has been closed for 2 months with no explanation, has announced it's reopening tomorrow with a gaudy AI post that features a completely different pub. That's not a promising sign at all...

After nearly two years, I've finally got through a gold stake run on Balatro. Levelling up the flush and getting the super banana paid off. Ain't no way I'm doing it for the other decks. #playstationtrophy

Pretty much 5 months to the day that it happened.

Top secret info in the workplace that I was one of two people who knew about has finally become common knowledge. Someone at head office blabbed. Pressure is off now.

*taps the sign again for Epic* Fortnite Ranked still sucks. Don't give me a win umbrella in the BR mode that has all the matching cosmetics locked to playing a sweaty grindfest. Go back to the "survive X circles" style quests OR have all modes/team sizes selectable. I play squads to be carried.

Always suspected Ed Sheeran was a bit of a knob. Glamourising speeding on unsuitable roads and overselling a slight mess up when building a Lego model. If things go wrong, just go back a few steps to salvage it. Duh.

Oh, Ball X Pit is gonna be one of THOSE kind of games for me. I only downloaded it less than 2 days ago and I've already sunk 12 hours in. Granted, I am on holiday but still. Rougelikes are increasingly becoming my jam.

As someone who was hyped for it when it got revealed, seeing the footage of Wolverine is somewhat disheartening. Seems excessively hand holdy. That's more acceptable in an open world game but not in a linear one.

For reasons that escape me, I've gone back to playing Crash Bandicoot 4. There's only 1, maybe 2 trophies, that I can feaibly get with my skill level. The game being absolute nails is a real roadblock. It's Crash 1 in terms of difficulty ramped up.

Nothing makes me not want to go to an event more than seeing this text on the poster. God damn AI generated text. Deserves all the hate that Comic Sans used to get.

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

This year, more so than most, I've struggled to put my thoughts and feelings into words. Maybe something to do with being on medication to stop them from destroying me mentally. This gif, however, sums up a lot.

Nigel Farage is the same age as Keanu Reeves. This is a distressing fact I found out tonight. There is no doubt who in my mind would make the better Prime Minister. Hell, I know neither of them personally and there's no doubt who the better person is.

The fuck is going on this week?!?!

This AI font that's on seemingly every pub poster around where I live deserves all the hate that Comic Sans ever got.

Xcancel being shut down and old Reddit now requiring a login is really going to put a spanner in the "Get video game news and updates" works.

Stage Tour is bringing back the Guitar Hero/Rock Band gameplay as well as all the animations from those games. Shades of WWE 2K14 moves still being in the games 12 years later. #OpeningNightLive

So it's a few days into the new season and I've had a fair few games so here's my thoughts on Chapter 7 Season 4 of Fortnite. ... It's good but very much at risk of becoming Season 3.5 rather than a standalone thing.

100

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 22/08/2026

This applies again to this season of Fortnite. Win out the way early and then everyone seems to go full idiot in the endgame. I'll give full thoughts later but in the meantime: STOP TRYING TO REVIVE IN THE STORM WHEN THE ZONE IS FAR AWAY!!!

000

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

With the season coming to close, I do have to say that, after the initial buzz and hype at the start, this season of Fortnite turned out to be a bit of a dud. The chapter 3 curse continues. Turns out letting go of a 1000 employees might not have been a good move.

Just gonna say it - having an eclipse when the sun is due to set anyway is really lazy booking. Doesn't feel any different. If someone could rearrange the sun, that would be ideal.

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

Something seems a bit off about this eclipse...

Missile launcher is giving me ED-209 vibes which fits with Trump as they both can't climb stairs properly.

Do I need more figures/models? No. Was I going to turn down Jeff the Land Shark? No. Was I going to turn it down at a reduced price? Fuck no.

Last year, a new manager took everyones keys away in order to consolidate who had what - not realising that there was a reason certain people had certain keys. I got a set back a while ago but now I have my actual keys I'd had for over 10 years. The remnants of a Lego keyring are the giveaway.

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

Facebook came up with a notification telling me I had memories to look back on. Yeah, I guess the 2nd anniversary of one of the cats having to be put down was a memory. Not one I'd care to have resurface though.

YES!!! GO ON SPAIN! FUCK YOU, NO24 ARGENTINA!!!

000

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

As someone who doesn't follow football but has found himself in a pub - Argentina are a bunch of pricks. Number 24 in particular.

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 18/07/2026

Local pub has been closed due an "electrical problem" for over a week now, with no communication in the last 6 days. That does not bode particularly well.

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 14/07/2026

Used up all my luck in Fortnite and found a rare Grim sprite in a chest. As long as I get the base for the pilot, I'm fine. Anything else is a bonus.

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 12/07/2026

Yeah, think I might be nearing the end of my return visit to Sea of Thieves. I get being a pirate is the nature of the game but Repears Bones emissaries are a bunch of cunts. It was hard enough getting a crew to vote for an emissary and voyage - only for those fuckwits to appear.

000

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

Got round to buying a galleon in Sea of Thieves and, as Captain, why isn't my vote worth more? Should count for 2. If I want to raise/lower an emissary, it should be whatever the Captain wants. It's my ship. This shouldn't be a democracy.

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

Picked up a pack of Marvel MtG on my lunch break because why not? It had been a bastard of a day, it was hot and I'd saved some money on something else I had to get. Glad I did. The card I wanted most.

6 years ago this very day, in lockdown Covid times, I downloaded Fortnite out of sheer boredom. Over 1400 hours played later, it was the start of a very slippery slope.

000

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 01/07/2026

A digital only PS6 would be a day never purchase for me. I'd stick with the 5. Too many games over the years have been lost due to either lack of backwards compatibility or servers going down and that shit needs to stop. Apart from Drawn to Death. I'm glad that's gone.

000

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 01/07/2026

I don't know what the fuss is about - The PlayStation slogan was always clear on this.

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 01/07/2026

Rockstar: Releasing our biggest game ever as a pure digital title will surely go down as the dumbest video game decision this week. Sony: HOLD BOTH MY FUCKING BEERS!!!

Metallica in Caridff last night was the best gig/concert I've ever gone to. The absolute stage presence of those lads. 2026 has been a mixed bag but if it chucks more highs like this, it'll be worth it.

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 25/06/2026

I always forget how much of a love/hate relationship I have with Sea of Thieves until I redownload it and play for a couple of hours. A true PvE mode would be awesome. Just a bunch of friendly crews going about doing missions and not worrying about knobheads. Safer seas but with randoms.

Lewis @agentsmiz.bsky.social · 24/06/2026

This shit, the "pre-order the game to get early access" and multiple special editions are all gaming traits that I wish would die off.

The good thing about being on antidepressants is that something I would have brushed off as a bad idea seems like a good one. The bad thing about being antidepressants is that something I would have brushed... And so on.

Lot of people in the pub seem to suddenly know an awful lot about the offside rule. These are people who, like 3 days ago, didn't know the lyrics to Bohemian Rhapsody...or the tune...or anything other than "Gallelio!". #WorldCup

Was getting a plastic Infinity Gauntlet at the car boot worth the pride knock it was to haggle with a 10 year old kid over the price? No but I was suffering a loss that another table wanted way too much for a 2ft John Cena and needed a win.

Has anyone honestly actually gotten a zero point sprite from a chest in Fortnite I've not seen any video evidence to show it happening. I've seen a bunch of streamers with it suspiciously on the floor loot, like it's been placed/given, acting as though it's just been opened.
