Overwatch On Halloween

Good afternoon everybody,

Update on the healing of the tooth is that the hole where it used to be is even smaller, no noticeable pains at all... so hopefully everything just rolls neatly with it. I do know the bone growing to fill in the gap where the tooth was is gonna take about 4-6 months to settle in, but as long as I don't have to deal with the dry socket possibility I'm happy.


We had a great night of Overwatch last night, getting in the last matches needed to unlock the Roadhog skin associated with this years Halloween Terror event. Also big thanks to Reaper, PandaSweet and Speedy for joining in a lot of matches! I can't think of the last time I had a four stack going into a match from the start... actually I can, it would've been Halloween of last year with Kalenal and I think Mech being in the team with myself and Panda!

In terms of Plays of the Game I picked up four two as D.va and one each as Reinhardt and 76. Game modes saw a bit of Junkenstein Revenge including a couple of attempt on the Expert version of it, with the second one being successful with little to no damage on the door. Once of these days I'm gonna try the Legendary version of it to see if that cane be done. Also tossed in a couple of Mystery Hero matches, but for the most part it was Quick Play matches for the night.

Following the stream we sent the fun over to Lunar_Princess who was playing Resident Evil 4 VR over at twitch.tv/lunar_princess!

Oh boy! That was lucky! 

Some how surviving as baby Dva 


Off-stream Final Fantasy XIV Progress... well big news is I defeated my first first 'Extreme' Difficulty trial, and yes it was 'The Striking Tree (Extreme)'. After learning what to do during Saturday night's stream, going into with understanding of the orbs, the adds and AOE dangers, I certainly felt more comfortable. That said the tanks were also real new to it, so they both learned on the fly and were able to adapt. Sadly, one support player left part way through, but thankfully FXIV will try to find someone to fill the role.

Big thanks to Kalenal for showing me just how over powered a level 80 Red Mage can be against the likes of Ifrit, King Moogle, Garuda, Shiva, Leviathan and Titan, as three of them were tied to 'Face them on Extreme' quests. Also got some extra insights into the abilities and how these fights should go normally! 

Main Story Quest progress saw things picked up from 'In Search of the Soleil up to an 'An Illuminati Incident' and over the course of these session I faced the sky whale primal, learned that the next huge major story point is gonna involve entering a sky city  and oh yeah... Y'shtola has been found, the first of the Scions to turn up since everything went topsy turvey at the end of A Realm Reborn! 

Speaking off off-stream stuff, joined Sw33ts_gaming during their stream of Overwatch over at twitch.tv/sw33ts_gaming along with ChiefBeef for some additional matches, picking up two more plays of the game, one as D.va and one as Brigitte.

Since we reached the 30 hours for Janice's Contender, we're now going to switch over to using Karen as the trainer. Based on time spent using Karen before we're at 14/30 hours for the Karen's Contender achievement. Other achievements in progress see that I'm at 325/365 consecutive days for One Year's Hard Work, 325/350  Stamps for Unparalleled Stamper and 449,780/450,000 HITs for Mosnter Weight Puncher Lv. 4. Safe to say we're gonna reach that last one tomorrow!

For tonight's stream we are going to be playing Tomb Raider, and this would be 2013 game that was developed by Crystal Dynamics. I have played the Steam version before, so this time I'll be playing the console version using the Xbox Series S. 

So on that bomb shell we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
