Last night's stream of Final Fantasy XIV saw a couple of issues but I believe they were mostly on Twitch's end near as I can tell.
Beyond that it was a lot of fun as we were joined by both PandaSweet and Kalenal for some party team up fun, as Panda used the Data Center travel to visit. So you can expect that to be an almost regularly thing to see Panda not only on Sundays with Overwatch but also on FFXIV nights.
In terms of what was accomplished, well I mostly stuck to playing Bard with one brief moment of playing Blue Mage. We did a number of raids, trials and dungeons... and finally got the Coils of Bahamut story arc done, which not only gives Alisae all the character development she would have as it relates to the A Realm Reborn arc of the story, since she was mostly absent. The cut scenes were rather long, but we were running them de-synced to get through them quick.
Also started the new Hildebrand content, which actually sees us finding the Gentleman Inspector in the world of the first, so I'm really glad that isn't being skipped,. Love that there is some great choices on how things could play out.
For the raid we dropped in on Oldish22 who was also playing Final Fantasy XIV over on twitch.tv/oldish22!
Got another commission story request this time based around Marvel's Spider-Man, in particular the character of Miles Morales. Going have to do some research to see how I want to portray him.
Work was rather interesting, and I can safely say that anyone in the stage of Michigan who is supporting John Gibbs to become a congressman is fucking idiot and a danger to the United States of America.
Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Advanced Combo #1, Sway Back Combo and Beginner Combo #2 for 34 minutes.
Took advantage of an Xbox games sale to add Catherine, Asura's Wrath and the Contra Anniversary Collection. Catherine is published by Atlus, the same folks behind the Persona games, so that could be interesting. Asura's Wrath was published by Capcom and was notorious for having some key story elements as DLC, and I made sure to pick those up as well. The Contra Anniversary collection is of course a celebration of the Contra series that was big in Arcades and the NES back in the 80s.

For tonight's stream we're back to Persona 5 Strikers, as we'll be starting the 3rd story arc investigation. We might take out time to try and do some level grinding and knock out combat achievements for the remaining Phantom Thieves.
Last night's stream of Fallout 76 had one instance of a degraded signal, but things worked out overall.
As for the game play of Fallout 76, I got a good amount of stuff done in terms of advancing a few stories, in particular I got the initial meeting with the Raiders quest line done, which involved making some Nuka-Cola.I'm slowly chipping away at all the quests I've found over the past several months of playing this game on Wednesdays.
Big thanks to Iceman for being apart of the fun, we actually tackled the the Mothman Equinox event which was pretty interesting in terms of how it was laid out. Granted we had an easy time with that because we did it in Iceman's custom world, so unlimited ammo and near invincibility help a lot.!
Also, we had 300 bits from the chat and for the resub from Mech3003 for the resub. The continued support is always appreciated.
I did get a question in my Twitch DMs about 'verified chats', for those wondering, yes my Twitch chat requires everyone to have their accounts verified either by email or phone. This is to protect the chat and to prevent trouble makers from causing problems. Full details on that can be found over at: https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/chat-verification-settings?language=en_US
For the raid we dropped in on a recommendation from Iceman, as we visited sannafierce who was playing Mass Effect: Legendary Edition over at twitch.tv/sannafierce!
Finished the commissioned fic based on characters from Halo: Reach, since yesterday ended up being a non-work day because the person running the shift had their flight cancelled. I'm not kidding.
Today's Fitness Boxing 2 workout featured Uppercut Combo #1, Waist Shape Focus Combo and Hook Combo #1 for 31 minutes.

Following the stream PandaSweet and I tested out the Data Center Travel,
and boy finding the menu for it was not as obvious as one would think.
We did a number of raids and stuff to see how everything would go and it
was a pretty awesome experience.
Which of course leads to tonight's stream, the plan is Final Fantasy XIV with probably a focus on questing and maybe some raids and trials if the Date Center visits work.
Last night's stream of Persona 4 Arena was without incident, not a single instance of dropped frames, so we're on a nice streak of no problems caused by Xfinity.
Anyway as for the game play of Persona 4 Arena, we covered two full story arcs with Kanji and Chie, and first off both had joke endings that were cute in their own way, but the the tone of things Kanji and Chie could not have been more different. With Kanji, here was a character who clearly was going through issues in figuring himself out, and who is not the sharpest knife in the drawer. I did appreciate how subtle... and then not so subtle... the subtext was as it pertains to how he tries not to cause issues, but people just expect some sort of trouble from him. Since I've not played Persona 4, I kind of feel like we got a lot of character building for Kanji that may not have been in the original game.
Now with Chie... they just go all in on her loving to eat meat, with her joke ending being her basically getting to a fight over a steak bowl, and the fallout related to that. It made for a nice running gag whenever it was brought up, but at the same time it result in some questionable dialog. That said, I don't feel I got to have much of an idea of who Chie is as a character based on her story arc, sure she wants to be a cop and she dives head first into things, but she came across a little flat.
That said, I did enjoy playing as Chie more than Kanji, as Chie has some natural combos that build meter quickly, while Kanji just seems like your standard big slow moving brute in comparison.
Speaking of which, lets talk about Aigis, we tackled her arcade tower, and one of the things I was going for was her instant-death move... which involved having to jump into the air, tap down down down then press Y+B. I've always hated mid-air supers as the timing for them just never feels natural for me to input the commands quickly enough. We did manage to perform it four times, but it only connected once because it can be easily avoided..
Staying on the subject of Persona, we've added the digital versions of Persona 4 Arena Ultimax and the Persona Dancing: Endless Night Collection which includes Persona 3: Dancing in the Moonlight, Persona 4: Dancing All Night and Persona 5: Dancing in the Starlight. Safe to say the Persona franchise is going to remain a constant on my channel for a good long while. At some point, I'll see about adding physical copies of these titles to my collection. Now why would I add P4AU to the list? Because the story of Persona 4 Arena is clearly the first half of the story, so the Ultimax half will be needed to see how things turn out.
Persona 4: Arena Achievements
The Emperor: Kanji's Story chapter has been told.
The Carnivore: Chie's Story chapter has been told.
All-Out Attack to the MAX!: You finished an All-Out Attack with a Fatal Counter in Arcade Mode or online.
We did not do a raid last night, instead we just hosted Maximilian_Dood who was featuring DNF Duel over on twitch.tv/maximilian_dood!
Final Fantasy XIV has finally enabled Data Center Travel which means we'll be able to play with friends on other Data Centers. PandaSweet said she's already planning to come visit during Thursday's stream!. I did play a little FF14 last night, going into the recently added Alpha & Omega quests that sees Omega having a crisis which was kind of cute.

For tonight's stream, Fallout 76 will be featured, as I'll work on trying to advance some of the various stories we've started by our random roaming. We'll more than likely also be joined by Iceman as well.
Last night's stream did not have one instances of a complete break in the action, which was good considering all three games we played involved online play!
First up was Star Trek Online, which we featured mostly for the Risa Summer event, so that meant we got to put on the swimsuit attire and do things like hover boarding, sand castle building, dance-off, and other activities. Since it is a limited-time event, it seemed like a good excuse to show-case it on a night where I didn't want to start up anything or continue things that are already in progress.
Second up, we did in deed play ranked matches using the Capcom Fighting Collection. I was pleasantly pleased with how there was little latency, as the roll-back netcode certainly worked. Now I did lose a lot more than I won, but I did manage to stay fairly competitive with only a few instances of being blown out. Some of the came played against other players were Super Puzzle Fighter II, Gem Fighter, Hyper Street Fighter II and Darkstalkers.
Lastly, we loaded up Smite to close out the night, playing five arena matches using Athena, Ganesha, Nu Wa, Cupid to knock out a lot of the weekly quests. I played as Nu Wa twice as I finally got her second character related achievement called Clay Explosion, which involved some good timing and luck to execute. We were joined by LvStkr for several matches, which was awesome.
SMITE Achievements
Clay Explosion: As Nu Wa deliver the killing blow by exploding Clay soldiers with Shining Metal.
Big thanks to Kalenal for the huge raid as they were playing Tunic over at twitch.tv/kalenal! Kalenal mentioned they reached the final boss, but it has multiple forms that they were not expecting, so keep an eye out for when they next play Tunic, because they might be finishing it!
Following my stream, we dropped in on Lunar_Princess who was playing Grandia HD Remaster over at twitch.tv/lunar_princess! It's been a while since I've seen them streaming, so it was real awesome to see them being all bananas about things.
Watched the Stargate SG-1 Episode 'The Broaca Divide' (Season 1, Episode 4) last night after the stream, where the team brings back a virus that starts to de-evolve everyone because of low levels of histamine. I could draw some parallels between this episode and the Star Trek Episode 'The Deadly Years', which kind of has a similar set up with the whole a virus causes a drastic transformation, but it's a pretty common trope to see through out a lot of Science-Fiction shows. Couple of things that stand out about the episode is how hot as hell Amanda Tapping is when an infected Carter goes after O'Neil, plus this was also an episode that introduced Janet Frasier as the lead medical doctor on the show in a reoccurring role for the remainder of the series.Also enjoyed how Teal'c got some stuff to do on his own, and his 'I am not Lucy' exchange with O'Neil is cute bite of comedy.
Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Body Hook Combo, Double Combo #2 and Weaving Combo #1 for 31 minutes
According a notice on my job's announcement feet, my holiday weekend is extended through today, well I knew about this on Friday. Still I want to at least make sure my schedule for next week is locked in.
Yes, I am disgusted that there was yet another Mass Shooting yesterday, this time during a parade. I really want to punch Ted Cruz in the mouth because it's because of people like him that allow these things to happen by not restricting the sale of weapons that should not be sold to the general public. To add to this point, at exactly 12:30 AM last night I heard gun fire... and I know it was gun fire because fire crackers and similar type items sound different

For tonight's stream, we're getting back to Persona 4 Arena, as the plan is to knock out two more story mode arcs, and clear another arcade run.
That said, last night's stream of Overwatch was rather solid, while we did have a couple of hiccups on the stream, there were no major issues. Big thanks to PandaSweet for being apart of the fun. I picked up three Plays of the Game, all as D.va, and Panda also nabbed one as Zenyatta. Characters I ended up using over the course of the night included Reinhardt, Reaper, Ana, Junkrat, Moira, Brigitte,Tracer and of course, the before mentioned D.va.We discovered that in skirmish mode we can stand on the heads of enemy players, which was a bit silly. On a side note, I seem to be in a trend of getting big triple and quadruple kills on the Gibraltar map.
For last night's raid we dropped in on GlorifiedThief who was play AI: The Somnium Files - Nirvana Imitative over at twitch.tv/glorifiedthief.
Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout involved Hook Combo #2, Beginner Combo #1 and Left-Right Step Combo for 28 minutes.
Went after several achievements in the Capcom Fighting Collection after the stream, including the ones focused around Hyper Street Fighter II: The Anniversary Edition... and yes I fully cheesed it, using a second controller to force my way to getting the fight with Akuma, then somehow barely managed to beat him. So at this point we have 31 of the games 45 achievements unlocked, and from what I see the rest involving grinding or hitting some damn near impossible to do moves.
Capcom Fighting Collection Achievements
Master of the Fist: In "Hyper Street Fighter II: The Anniversary Edition", fight the secret boss Akuma in a CPU match.
Collateral Damage: In "Hyper Street Fighter II: The Anniversary Edition", destroy a background object.
The Path of the Warrior: Complete "Hyper Street Fighter II: The Anniversary Edition" in offline mode.

Come On, Baby: In "Vampire Hunter 2: Darkstalkers' Revenge", hit any character with Demitri's Midnight Bliss.
We have passed 3,500 Xbox achievements with a gamer score of 82,767. Not bad for only having Xbox Consoles for 2 and a half years.
Played some Overwatch 2 last night as well, continuing to practice playing as D.va to get an idea of how much she can take in situations where trying to manage her defense matrix.
I would say Happy Independence Day, but how can we celebrate the Fourth
of July when in the past two weeks rights and freedoms for many in the
United States have been taken away because of a handful of individuals
in the pocket of Mitch McConnell and the Republican party? And those
corrupt individuals have the balls to say 'no one should be protesting
their actions' and they 'deserve a good nights rest' goes to show what
types of fucking idiots they are. But let's face it, America is no
longer the land... and it's the Republican party who are to blame, for
they are the party who embraced Corporate involvement back in the 1980s
and who ties everything to a bogus 'faith'.

For today's stream we are going to play some Star Trek Online, namely we're going to drop in on Risa, and more than likely we might also mess around with some other stuff too.
Well last night's stream was a hell of a showcase for the Capcom Fighting Collection, and I'll give my impressions of the games shortly. We did have two instance of a full network bandwidth issues... which is amazing considering we had no issues on Friday night! Also there was a couple of power outages following the stream, and one this morning. Hopefully that is not something I'm going to have to start worrying about.
Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors - I have played this before, because I have the PlayStation port, so playing the arcade perfect port wasn't that much different. For all the Darkstalkers games I played as Morrigan because she is the one character from the franchise that I was familiar with because her basic set of special moves are all performed similar to the traditional Capcom shotos (Ryu/Ken/Sakura).
Night Warriors: Darkstalkers' Revenge - First time playing it, this was clearly an upgraded version of the first Darkstalkers game, just with additional characters. Not much of a game play difference. This introduces Donovan and as well as a headache for me trying to understand the Darkstalker timeline when it comes to the remaining 3 games in the series. Also this Nigh Warriors also had the same 'special meter' from X-Men: Children of the Atom.
Vampire Savior: The Lord of Vampire - First time playing the 3rd game in the Darkstalkers series, and this does away with the usual two of three round format with a near continuous fight approach, where remaining health carries over between when someone is knocked out. It's very similiar to the the home releases of the X-Men vs Street Fighter, Marvel Super Heroes vs Street Fighter and Marvel vs Capcom on the PlayStation.
Vampire Hunter 2: Darkstalkers' Revenge - First time playing, and the game play is the same as Vampire Savior, but the game itself seems to me more of a sequel to Night Warriors: Darkstalkers Revenge based on the attract screen... and also the fact that Night Warriors: Darkstalkers' Revenge was called Vampire Hunter in Japan. Also of note this game was never released outside of Japan... and based on its game play, outside of the roster, nothing seems improved from Vampire Savior.
Vampire Savior 2: The Lord of Vampire - First time playing, and well, and like VH2:DR, this game was also never released outside of Japan... and the titles just makes things more confusing. Also of note, the attract screen features B.B. Hood holding Lilith by her skull, while in VH2:DR, it's Donovan holding Morrigan by her skull. So are their parallel timelines in the Darkstalkers canon over? Also, game play is the same as VS:TLOV
Cyberbots: Fullmetal Madness - I have played this before as part of the Capcom Arcade Cabinet, and I learned that it was a spin off of Armored Warriors, a Capcom Beat 'Em Up, that I have played before... and was wondering if there was a connection since some of the mech-sprites appeared in the Beat 'Em Up. Went through the arcade mode of Jin, which comes across as just the major points of an mid-90s anime. Gameplay does have some major difficulty scaling towards the end of the arcade ladder.
Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo - Obviously I'm very familiar with this, since I did featured the HD Remix version a lot on stream. The arcade version does have a charm to it, and we nearly had a perfect run, but as usual, but I made some mistakes at the end when facing Akuma when reaching the final opponent... so it was no different than when I was playing the HD Remix version.
Super Gem Fighter Minimix - I have played this before, as apart of the Street Fighter Alpha Anthology collection, in fact we streamed that earlier this year, and there seems to be some subtle differences between how both versions play, at least in terms of how responsive the controls felt.
Hyper Street Fighter II: The Anniversary Edition - I have played this version before years ago as apart of the Street Fighter 15th Anniversary Collection released on the PlayStation 2 which included Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike and Street Fighter: The Animated Movie. This is my least favorite version of Street Fighter II... and of all the games in the Capcom Fighting Collection, this was the only one we did not beat on stream last night.
Red Earth - First time playing it, before last night the only experience I've had with Red Earth is via Capcom Fighting Evolution, and boy does Red Earth come across as ambitious but rubbish. It's a beautiful game, but the hit detection is all over the place in that you have to be standing in exactly the right spot to get anything done. We went through the arcade mode as Tessa because why the hell not, and learned quickly that heath does not fully regenerate between fights for anyone, and if you are continuing, the enemy doesn't get it's health back.
Now there are a lot of achievements associated with the Capcom Fighting Collection, and I certainly am not going to go for all of them, there are are few I feel like would be solid to have as accomplishments, but things like beating each game with every characters, get every ending and other nonsense like that has me going 'no'. At least there are no online PVP achievements.
Also we did included some Fall Guys last night, big thanks to PandaSweet and LvStrkr for being apart of the squad as I got my first win and first win with a group! That was a lot of fun.

For the raid we dropped in on TracyDoll who was playing Friday the 13th: The Game over at twitch.tv/tracydoll!
During the stream we got 300 bits from the viewers, and a resub from LvStkr for the 39th month in a row! Always grateful for the continued support! You guys and gals are awesome!
As announced during the stream, my copy of My Little Pony: A Maretime Bay Adventure will be the next game on the PS4 following Persona 5 Strikers.
Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Body Straight Combo, Body Uppercut Combo and Advanced Combo #2 for 31 minutes.
It's the start of a new week which means looking back at all the things we played last week which included Overwatch, Persona 4: Arena, Overwatch 2, Star Trek Online, Fallout 76, Final Fantasy XIV, Persona 5 Strikers, Capcom Fighting Collection & Fall Guys!
Finished the commissioned Halo fic based around Halo 3: ODST, and it came across pretty solid I think. Granted only 1700 words, but with my unfamiliarity with the franchise beyond what clips I can find on YouTube and what I understand from the FanWikis, it's a win-win.

I kind of screwed things up a bit to getting the Brigitte Medic skin for Overwatch by accidentally gifting a tier 3 sub... but oh well, got the skin anyway. And speaking of Overwatch things, its Sunday so we'll be playing that this evening!
Last night's stream of Persona 5 Strikers didn't have one single interruption which was amazing. Now I did move the coaxel cables as far as possible from any other cables (namely electrical ones), and maybe that was a solution, because I did read that if they crossed it could cause a disruption. We'll see how that plays out for Saturday's stream.
Anyway, with Persona 5 Strikers, we covered the entire second jail which wasn't so bad, as it was pretty straight forward from getting from one part to another... also realized how the level grinding works towards characters achievements, in that a lot of play time with each member of the Phantom Thieves is needed, and this is certainly going to be a lot more rewarding because "Requests' and revisiting prior jails are now unlocked, With time not being as much of a factor as with Persona 5 Royal. that means deliberate trips to do nothing but farm enemies is something we'll probably do.
In terms of the story, Yusuke being the focal point in having to have a come to the fictional son of a fictional higher-being meeting with the second villain certainly severed as a great call back to where Yusuke started as a character. Now from what I've seen of the start of the third arc, it seems Haru is going to be front and center for it, since it involves someone she directly knows.
Also Futaba has been stealing the show in several ways, her comments regarding Ann and Haru's development in certain areas certainly was hilarious.
Persona 5 Strikers Trophies
Knife in the Dark: Performed 50 ambushes.
Unshakeable Teamwork: Performed an All-Out Attack 150 times.
Flame Dancer: Obtained all Master Arts for Panther.
A Helping Hand: Completed a request.
Phantom Striker: Defeated 200 enemies with a phantom dash.
Peerless Blade: Obtained all Master Arts for Fox.
Cage of Vanity Conquered: Completed the Sendai Jail.
A Little Memento: Obtained a souvenir for the camper.
During the stream we got 400 bits from the viewing audience, the support is always appreciated! Big thanks for the support! And also big thanks to YrGamerBunni for the huge raid following their stream of Crusader Kings III which they play every Friday over on twitch.tv/yrgamerbunni!
Rather surprised the Phillies seem to be holding it together thus far, but with Bryce Harper out till most likely late August, I highly doubt July is going to be as good a month as June was for them.
My fantasy baseball team holds a 6-4 advantage this week, but with two days left and some guys playing on teams that have double headers today, I'm hoping I guessed right to having the right folks starting.
Per LvStrkr's recommendation, we've added Blue Dragon to the list of Xbox360 games to play at some point.
I have a 5 days weekend, since it was announced yesterday afternoon that the July 4th break will be extended to included the 5th. So I should have no excuse not to knock out the commissioned Halo fic that I already started writing a few days ago.
Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout involved Defensive Combo #1, Uppercut Combo #2 and Double Combo #1 for 28 minutes.

For tonight's stream, I have no clue what we're going to do at the time I'm writing this at 4:56 AM, we might do some older-era gaming tonight just to have some variety.
Last night's stream of Final Fantasy XIV saw a couple of issues but I believe they were mostly on Twitch's end near as I can tell.
