Still Taking The Casual Approach To Saints Row

Good morning everyone,

Last night's stream of Saints Row was a lot of fun as I really focused on the ventures and side jobs for a good portion, with the big realization being that the ones for acquiring the cars was a lot more obvious than they were in other games. We did advance the plot a little in terms of quests associated with Eli, Kev and Neenah that advanced their sub stories and get to know more of what their characters are like in various situations.

Perhaps the highlight was the final mission we did that introduced the LARP aspect Saints Row, and it's a big reminder as to why I prefer Saints Row over Grand Theft Auto, which is how the series is not afraid to be silly and over the top in various ways. 

Something very apparent is that I'll hit Level 20, which is I think max level sometime during the next stream where I feature Saints Row (Monday), because of my focus on avoiding the main story. I just really like being able to take a casual approach to it, getting the most out of the game where I can set my own pace.

I couldn't reach my mom at all yesterday via her cell phone... and I had a pretty bad blow up as well with a lot of hits coming my way. I know I'm not alone, but I'm not the best at expressing myself. Doesn't help that the longer things go on, the more the fact that I'm failing on so many fronts is coming to light.

As a result, I didn't get any writing done at all yesterday in terms of the commission requests that I do have that helped cover some expenses and odds are that won't be the case today either.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Biceps Shape Focus Combo, Triple Combo #2, Intermediate Combo #1 and Defensive Combo #2 for 32 minutes

Also Fitness Boxing 2 had a surprised update, with a new instructor named Leo being added, which is funny to me because that's my brother's named. Other features added was the option to remove Blocking from the daily workout settings, the ability to customize the order of songs on the Song List and check the courses played on the Exercises Results Screen 

Also stepped on the scale, and my weight seems to be down around 238 to 240 pounds, so lets split the difference and call it 239

Song of the Day: Bury A Friend by Billie Eilish

For tonight's stream the plan is to play Fall Guys and Fallout 76 as part of the usual Wednesday night double header. 

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