A trained librarian that is curious and prone to musing. She is highly amused that her Anthropology and Film & Digital Media background has finally found its right and proper place. A lover of mermaids and faeries... especially the insane kind that cause mayhem and laugh with maniacal glee. ^-^ She also finds herself living with Methuselah the cat, grateful for each day.

Magesplat muses about The Mushroom Age which may be one of the most bizarre and fantastic hidden object games she has ever played. Random and quirky WTF awesomeness aside there were some elements about the game that just didn't sit well with her.

"Thank you for this article. I often wonder about this, heh. So far in my many travels, the only two non-model sized women characters I've found are Olga the Scalawag Wench in World of Warcraft (and someday I will finish writing my "Ode to the Fat Wench of WoW," though really, she isn't fat, just not a size 2 >.>) and a non-fancy maid looking person in Forsaken World. Even in very open character creators (like City of Heroes) one cannot make a huge female, only male. I think it's a shame that a variety of sized characters aren't put into games with large worlds. I get wanting to keep things sexy and idealist, but all the same, esp in a large world (game), I feel it would only make them richer for having variety. Not to mention, not being a model sized human being, having a character I can connect to would mean a deeper experience for me. As much fun as it is to see my only reflections as barmaids and maids... ;)"

"I love print magazines. I grew up with them, and the net will never replace it in my heart. I tend to still read print, but I read online just as much anymore. As you pointed out, kids today never grew up with print magazines and have only known the world where they type what they want in and zoom right to it. (And oftentimes not as effectively as they could >.>) There is a shift from taking ones time to read and explore longer articles savoring an experience and reflecting on it for a deeper experience to wanting to having shorter to the point articles that answer more direct queries with less time. I see it stemming from the very media infused way of life many people now live. We simply don’t have the same way of dividing our time that we once did. Honestly, it makes me fear for the future, as I see a generation growing up with those connections that give deeper meaning and greater understanding. Then again, maybe they are, and I’m just not able to see or understand it. Only time will tell."
