I got the privilege to see a practice session a few weeks back, and they were already sounding so dang good!

Totally fair! I've had a bit of fun trying to read a few of them myself!
Probably best used to get the ideas flowing, rather than as-is! 😀

Some of my favourites so far are "sterug", "antreatur", and "corrupto"!

Thank you very much! I really appreciate it! 😀

I really enjoyed this talk, thank you for presenting it!
I've been asked to share some of the lessons from it at my workplace. Did you happen to, or would you be willing to, upload the slides for this talk anywhere? I was frantically taking notes but missed some of the great examples you shared 😀

My nephew does this in Super Mario Wonder and is convinced his data will not be saved unless it is done!
I do the same in No Man's Sky, just to make sure I see the "your last save was x seconds ago" message.
It could be rooted in experienced/expected behaviour of other games.

I'm also a web developer, turned team lead, turned security person for my day job.
I like to concern myself with performance, accessibility, processes and security!
I'm always keen to learn more and improve in what I do 😀
