Hi there,
on most gaming platforms or communities I’m known as Nogamara<\/strong>. I’m on the Fediverse<\/a> and on the Blaugust Discord<\/a> and I don’t stream. (Twitter got cancelled in 2023.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This blog is about nothing in particular (but mostly limited to games), but it’s more of a diary of stuff I do, usually in MMOs. You won’t find any detailed reviews or analysis of gaming news here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I started blogging about games I used to play mostly WoW<\/strong> (with too many alts) on EU-Aggramar Horde and a few server moves later I’m mostly on EU-Tichondrius Alliance now. From spring 2014 to mid-Battle for Azeroth in 2019 I had basically stopped, with a few 1 month visits inbetween. I guess WoW has been my main MMO overall, but this is not a WoW blog per se.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first games I played were Sim City and King’s Quest in the mid-90s. I am not a console gamer, but I’ve had a SNES when it was new, a GBA in late 2002 and an XBox 360 in late 2010 but it’s hardly used except for Rock Band and streaming. I liked Skylanders and some LEGO games though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m being told I rant a lot. That is mostly true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The massive list of my MMO characters and when I played which MMO that used to be here now has a dedicated page: MMOs & Me<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
