Yesterday was wild on the old internet video games scene. I spent two and half hours attempting to play Titan Fall 2. In the meantime, I was streaming the whole thing on Twitch. I think because so many of the usual players weren't able to play combined with natural curiosity about the situation, I had 57 people stop by and watch. Lots of people to talk to while I constantly got booted out of the game. Allegedly, the person responsible for the Denial of Service attack was even in the chat. They were accusing others of being the hacker too. 

It was wild, and a lot of fun. I have no aspirations to monetize my Twitch channel (same with my YouTube channel, and this very blog) although I am not sure what option I have exactly with Twitch because I think they'll start running ads on my stuff based on viewers. I'm not really sure. I may look into it.

The chaos was enough to keep me interested in walking, so that was good. I walked the entire time. 

I'm not sure what challenges will be like today, but we shall see. I joked on the stream that this right here, trying to log in and staring at a loading screen, this is the game now. This is how I play it. 

Maybe it will become true. We shall see.
