Final Fantasy XIII and other notes

Tonight's stream of Final Fantasy XIII certainly took longer than I expected to get through Chapter 7, but we were able to do it in about five hours, putting us in a good spot tackle Chapter 8 and farm the hell out CP on Saturday's stream. Which may not make for exciting content, but by my count I'm kind of a head in terms of the Skill Trees in having everything below the cost of 900 CP unlocked on every character. Now I understand getting mastery on everything is only possible in the post-game, but given my history with Final Fantasy games in general, I want to have every possible advantage I can get!

By the way I fully endorse the shipping of Fang and Lightning

Also I think I tracked down the physical strategy guides for Final Fantasy XII-2 and Lighting Returns: Final Fantasy XIII, as I really do intend to do the entire trilogy.

Big thanks to Oldish22 for the raid!

For my own raid we dropped in on neperrati who was playing Persona 3 Reload, a firm reminder that I need to play Persona 4 Golden as part of this year's line up for games.Come to think of it, with all the larger scale games I want to play this year, it'll be amazing on if I even manage to get to 30 games finished on this years tour!

Friday night's stream will feature Ghost of Tsushuma (Speaking of large games that will take awhile)

We didn't have work tonight, but I didn't start the stream until after 9 PM, just to stay in rhythm. We're waiting on an assignment at the moment.

Finished the Resident Evil commission request, and I wasn't to pleased with how it turned out, and I got started on working on a commission story based around WWE, which at this point is maybe about 35% finished. 

Final Fantasy XIII Achievements

• Instrument of Shame: Carried the burden of guilt to the end of the line.

Sea of Thieves and other notes

Tonight's stream of Sea of Thieves saw Striker and Iceman join in as we replaced part of the quest we were working on last week to finish it and then we continued on to the next chapter, tracking down Captain Jack Sparrow. We also found a underwater treasure haul and got a ton of loot! All in all a great time on the high seas!

Tomorrow night we're resuming Final Fantasy XIII picking up on Chapter 7 

Big thanks to IntergalaticPants for the raid tonight!

For our own raid we dropped in on zdleague who was playing Bend and the Ink Machine

Work was okay tonight as we were trying to close out an assignment that is focused on things up in North Jersey, ran into too many folks who didn't speak English.

Currently working on a Resident Evil related commission request, which is going to end up more plot heavy than anything else as I need to write out Nemesis and Mr. X

Saw the new skins coming to the next Overwatch battle pass and the Moira one looks really cool. And if they are doing a Cowboy Bebop crossover, I may be really interested in that.

Sea of Thieves Achievements

• The Sunken Pearl: You completed 'The Sunken Pearl'.
• Captains of the Damned: You completed 'Captains of the Damned'.

Final Fantasy XIII and other notes

Tonight's stream of Final Fantasy XIII saw us knock out all of chapter six in fairly straight forward fashion, having only suffered one defeat against a Wyvern, while having little trouble with the end of chapter boss fight against Enki and Enlil (thankfully the guide gave me a good idea of what I needed to do). Sazh's backstory with his son and how it connects Vanille has me eagerly wanting to see how that falls out. We did 'start' chapter seven, getting the achievement for it because of the cut scene, but we'll do it on Thursday's stream. If I'm reading the guide correctly, the half way point of the game and when it opens up at  the end of Chapter 10. 

Tomorrow night's stream is slated to feature Sea of Thieves, if Iceman is unable to join us, Smite is our alternate game.

For the raid we dropped in on SweetLindir who was playing Palworld 

Work tonight was odd as our system broke down towards the end of the shift, so things ended earlier than I would have liked. 

Was in the mood for something different so I did a DoorDash order from McDonalds... and they got my drink wrong, and that double Big Mac was quite a disappointment. It was a firm reminder as to why I prefer Wendy's and Checkers.

Knocked out the Star vs The Forces of Evil commission, and now the next story on the docket is Resident Evil related.

Need to find a show to watch after doing my Red Dwarf watch through.... rather it not be an hour long show.

Final Fantasy XIII Achievements

• Instrument of Survival: Evaded pursuers, though memories of the past still gave chase.
• Instrument of Rebellion: Made plans to infiltrate enemy-occupied territory

Skullgirls 2nd Encore and other notes

Tonight's stream of Skullgirls saw us getting through five of the six story modes, all that is left is Black Dahlia, which we'll have to save for next Monday. The amount of dialog exchanges that takes place in the stories for Squibbly, Big Band, and Eliza really drew things out, then Umbrella and Annie's were voiced. Still is was a solid night, and I don't have to consider changing the weekly line up. We also picked up a new follower because we were playing Skullgirls which was awesome.

Tomorrow night we're back to Final Fantasy XIII with the start of chapter six!

For tonight's raid we dropped in on misscammi316 who was playing Smite

Work was solid tonight, knocked out several interviews on a study covering issues up in North Jersey

Finished my watch through of Red Dwarf, and the Promise Land movie was awesome. The moonlight scene with Lister and Rimmer was very touching.

Finished the WWE related story early in the morning and got to work on the Star vs The Forces of Evil commission, and I'm about 30% done writing it. Basically in the middle of its action sequences.

Skullgirls 2nd Encore Achievements

• Until You Next Awaken: It would appear they've become quite inseparable.

• Siblings Unite: I'll protect you, and you'll protect me!

Overwatch 2 and other notes

We had a fun night of Overwatch 2 this evening as we were joined by PandaSweet for every single match. We certainly  ran into our fair share of questionable teammaes. Characters I used were JunkerQueen, Dva, Cassidy, Hanzo,, Windowmaker, Tracer and several other characters.

Tomorrow night we're returning to Skullgirls to finish all the story mode runs we need to do (and to basically make Skullgirls 'reviewable' for my YouTube channel)

For the raid we dropped in on brittballs who was playing Celeste

Finished Series 12 of Red Dwarf and now just have to watch The Promise Land movie. Looking forward to watching it this week.

Did some grocery shopping today, picked up all the goodies!

Nearly finished the WWE Short Story commission, but wrestling stories are not fun to right so it's taking longer than needed to finish.

Final Fantasy XIII and other notes

Tonight's stream of Final Fantasy XIII saw us get further than I ever did with my original PlayStation 3 play through as a) I learned where I could grind CP, b) got real comfortable switching between the various roles and c) had the strategy guide to get a good idea of how to deal with various enemies, including the boss at the end of chapter five. I did save the game before we launched into chapter six, because I want to open the next time we play Final Fantasy XIII with an achievement.

Speaking of which, Final Fantasy XIII returns on Tuesday night's stream.

Also, big thank you to the two folks who followed during the s tream!

Tomorrow's stream will feature Overwatch 2.

For tonight's raid we dropped in on psudonym who was playing Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth,

I caught up on a lot of sleep today, granted I should've done some groceries.

Didn't get much writing done on a WWE related story for a commission, but I'll be working on that before I go to sleep tonight.

 Final Fantasy XIII Achievements

• Instrument of Vengeance: Resolved to be more than a victim of circumstance.

Ghost of Tsushima and other notes

Tonight's stream of Ghost of Tsushima started a little late because I was waiting on dinner to arrive, because I kind of fell asleep in the early afternoon and didn't have time to make something. We spent most of the night roaming around, advancing one of the main stories and exploring, seeing what areas we can find and doing the side quests. Did get one trophy tonight.

Our next stream on Saturday will feature Final Fantasy XIII as we pick up things in Chapter 4.

For the raid we dropped in on rumhamshmah who was playing Smite

Work was okay tonight except for the fact that nap I took resulted in me oversleeping, so I lost an hour... but I was productive in getting several interviews done.

Finished a major commission story earlier in the day based on Resident Evil 4, next story on the docket is based around WWE... (sigh)

Did pick up Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and Yakuza: Like A Dragon, obviously one of those were on sale

Ghost of Tsushima (PS4) Trophies

• Open for Business: Successfully Stagger enemies 50 times.
