Native Instruments A61

Returned my MPK Mini earlier this week, as I kinda reached the limit of what I could do with it. 25 keys / 2 octaves is a pretty short range of notes after all. It quickly became a problem after a few weeks of learning.

I almost bought the Native Instruments A49, but settled instead for the 61 keys version because why not. 5 full octaves and a pretty sweet mod-wheel. That mod-wheel will be a lot better than the MPK Mini's knobs and joystick. It also seems to come with several interesting libraries and tools, should be interesting.

It will hopefully integrate well with Reaper and Kontakt. :)

What Playing Hearthstone Often Feels Like

When it comes to playing Hearthstone, the grind can become pretty intense sometimes. Especially when you consider how cheap the reward system is when you're playing for free. Here's a quote I found on Reddit that sums it up very well:

It (Hearthstone) felt like a I had a job and my payment was .1 packs/3 wins.

Yup, that's pretty accurate.

How Most People Feel About Artifact

As of March 2019, Artifact is kind of a no man's land, with its player counts dropping under 300 now and then. You read it well, under 300.

A recent post on Reddit sums up pretty well how a lot of people feel about the game right now:

I’m still here, I liked the game and wanted it to succeed, but at this point watching its descent into total, complete, undeniable failure is far more entertaining than the game ever was.

Amen.
