Stray and other notes

Tonight's stream was a bit shorter than usual for a Saturday because of the length of last night's stream. But at the same time, since we were playing Stray, I was able to remember 90% of the first half of the game so we were able to get all the way past AntVillage. 

Of course I was taking my time trying to find various things... and safe to say, since the stream was nearly four hours there was no chance to finish it in two hours. Did have a little trouble finding the last soda can and the yellow flowers, plus had a few deaths in the zurk chase sequences.

Anyway, Stray will return on Monday night's stream, and if we can get through the remainder of the game on that night, we'll probably do something like Dead by Daylight or Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed on Tuesday.

Our next stream for Sunday will featured Overwatch 2... and will be dedicated to my mom, as she would've been 64.

Did get dinner from the 45th Street Pub, really didn't want to cook anything tonight.

Finished the NFL related commission story, and started up work on a Dragon Ball related commission, which should be pretty straight forward as way to highlight Mr. Satan.

Good night!


Horizon Zero Dawn and other notes

Tonight we wrapped up Horizon Zero Dawn, extending the stream to six hours... I could have finished it sooner but I was trying to find various power cores for the ancient armor, plus quite a few cut scenes lasted a while, and I did go in deep on every side conversation where possible. But we did knockout about 70% of everything that was pretty much possible to do in the game with a few stray things that can be knocked out if I ever want to go back and try to do trophy clean up.

This game was as good as people say it was, will I want to play it again, start to finish? Probably on a new game plus run with all my gear and stuff.

The next PlayStation 4 game on the tour will be Alan Wake Remastered, which we'll start playing next Friday.

Our next stream on Saturday night will feature Stray!

For the raid we went over to missbrittgaming who has started their first play through of Horizon Zero Dawn!

Work was solid tonight, got three interviews, even if some dudes were just rude... one person was a real treat to speak to even it took 40 minutes.

Didn't finish the story I had on deck for Friday, so it gets pushed back to Saturday. This is due to recording my casual review for Persona 5 Tactica, since I do like to record those as soon as I finish a game. In fact I'll be doing one for Horizon Zero Dawn before I go to bed as well.

Sunday would have been my mom's birthday... and that is weighing on my mind a lot.
