Last night's stream saw us continue Tales From The Borderlands, and I was planning on only doing episodes 3 and 4.... but hell it was Friday night, so we went all in and knocked out episode 5 as well.
Now one big drawback with the 2K re-release of Tales from the Borderlands is that it removes the 'community' aspect of it, where we could see what percentage of players made a particular choice, and it does not have a way to keep track of the choices made in-game to give an idea of what to do different on another play through.
That said, Episode 3 is pretty sweet as the tie-in to the Prologue and Epilogue of Borderlands: The Pre Sequel is established with Brick and Mordecai going after Athena to take to Lilith. Episode 4 and 5 probably do more to setting up Borderlands 3 to various degrees from what I understand of that game, as making sure Handsome Jack is dead and making sure Fiona is a Vault Hunter or at the very least very damn capable of taking care of her self at the very least.
The epic battle between a giant Gortys and the Traveler Vault Monster is always fun to experience, and one of the days I'm going to look up how to get the option of the 'hidden' vault hunters to pick for that battle, plus remember to tell Zer0 that Fiona is a Vault Hunter in episode 1. And of course there's the... option of trying to have ClapTrap...as a possible selection.... but that would mean not doing some things I like to do (getting alternate outfits and making the Carava look kind of cool)
Finishing Tales for the Borderlands made it the 46 game finished on this years tour, and it's pretty damn likely we're going to surpass last years total of 48, but what will make it on tour is still up in the air.
Also big thanks to ValadoraLuma for the nice Host during the stream. They were playing Pathfinder, and you can check out their content over at twitch.tv/ValadoraLuma!
Following the stream we sent the fun over to SheepFuzz at twitch.tv/sheepfuzz who was doing their Friday Night community night playing Jackbox Party games! You really should check their stream out, as things can get down right silly!

Had to manually initiate updates on some of my consoles, because hey, I rotate which ones I use at any given time. That's always a joy to sit through.
Over the course of the past 9 days, we have unlocked 91 Xbox Achievements, making it the 4th best stretch of achievement unlocking I've had
The Phillies keep false hope alive with that come from behind wind over the Pirates last night, but here's the thing... The Braves have a game they would have to make up against the Rockies that could be a deciding factor, because as it stands right now. So if the Phillies are to win the NL East, they need to win every game the rest of the season. They got 2 games left at home, then rest on the road... and as stated before the Phillies suck on the road.
Work was less blah yesterday than it was on Thursday, but still it was just dragging with how barren the sample was. Still work is work, and we like work right? RIGHT?!
Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout lasted 28 minutes and featured Double Combo #1, Defensive Combo #1 and Defensive Combo #2. The estimated calorie burn was 433 kcal. I had some trouble syncing up step-in jabs today which counted for three of the four misses. The other miss was the typical uppercut out of a duck that almost always has a 90% success rate.
For tonight's stream we'll be checking out a game that was recommended by LvStrkr, The Artful Escape, I know nothing about it other than LvStrkr said I should be able to finish it in an evening. So we'll see if that holds true!
So on that bombshell, we'll see you later tonight over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
