Overwatch 2 and other notes

Tonight's stream was dedicated to mostly playing as Dva to give a good idea of how I tend to literally play her as a tank with some dive-bomb attempts when I see an opening.Did get in several matches as Brigitte, Zarya and a few other characters as well.

Of course there were some very suspect people both terms of who we played with and against that very much had me scratching my head.

Still, mostly playing as Dva had me thinking I could go on a string of dedicating nights to playing as specific characters. Just a thought.

Big thanks to PandaSweet for being apart of the fun

Overwatch 2 will return next Sunday

Tomorrow night we're back to Borderlands 2 to continue the Tiny Tina DLC content.

For the raid we dropped in on Kalenal who was playing Final Fantasy XIV

Did groceries today, had to spend more than I was planning  to because I needed contractor bags.

Got a good deal of writing done on a WWE commission, will be working on that after this is posted

Also will record this week's Daria Reactions before bed. 

Persona 4 Golden

Tonight we completed the Rescue Yukiko arc of Persona 4 and realized two things, one being the enemies due respond, two it's going to be real easy to lure about the Reaper and three save-scumming (basically saving and reloading) is very much encouraged (and we did that ONCE just to get an achievement) 

Still one thing I really picked up on is that earning XP is going to be a lot easier in Persona 4 Golden than when compared to Persona 5 and Persona 3, as we're already in the low 20s with the initial crew. 

That said, if each 'dungeon' is 8 to 12 floors, we should be able to pace things out in order to get advancing things at a fair pace. Of course this is going to depend on how complex the floor maps get. Not to mention how much back tracking will be required because I suspect revisiting different dungeons is going to be tied to various side questss.

Persona 4 Golden will return next Saturday

Tomorrow's stream will feature Overwatch 2

For the raid we dropped in on intergalacticpants who was playing Baldur's Gate 3 

Got the Arrow commission request finished real early in the morning and started work on the next fic which is WWE related, which will be on my agenda for Sunday. If I keep it simple and light, I should be able to knock it out in short order.

I say that because I couldn't sleep at all last night and when I did fall asleep it was like 6 AM and I woke up at 3 PM.

Ghost of Tsushima and other notes

Tonight's stream saw us finding the last 'quick shot' skill which allows for Jim to have a flaming sword, plus closed in on completing Bamboo Strikes and finding various shrines and collectables. 

Now at this point there are two trophies I'm probably not going to get, finding hidden shrines that apparently are not part of the standard set as well as defeating an enemy with fall damage

Ghost of Tsushima will return next Friday as we continue  to explore as much of the third area as possible without advancing the plot.

Tomorrow's stream will see us resuming Persona 4 Golden

For the raid tonight we dropped in on ZoneSama who was playing Splatoon 3

Work was a slog, but it was a recruit assignment as we were looking for people who fit the parameters of a study.

About 60% complete of the commission story based on Arrow, could easily finish it early tomorrow before starting on the next one

Ghost of Tsushima (PS4) Trophies

• Teller of Tales: Complete all of the Mythic Tales.

 

Borderlands 2 and other notes

So the Tiny Tina's Dungeon Keep DLC for Borderlands 2 is way more interesting than the Hammerlock Big Game Hunt, just in terms of everything making sense in how each area is laid out and no cheap instant fail side-quests. We only knocked out the first two chapters but did every side quest I came across.

That said, I figure the DLC is basically Tiny Tina's way of coping with a lot of the hardship she went through considering how she seems to want to think Roland is alive... well technically he is because I have not finished the main game of Borderlands 2 yet lol.

Also, it really shocked me to realize that the DLC was later released as a stand along game. I get that it's a unique novelty but I'm not sure that was a good idea or even a good value since it's basically about 10-12 hours worth of content. 

Borderlands 2 will return on Monday 

Tomorrow's stream will feature Ghost of Tsushima

Big thanks to Oldish22 for the raid following their stream of Final Fantasy XIV

For the raid we dropped in on rumhamshmah who was playing Cat Quest II 

Work was super productive this evening, thing I was about 20% over production give or take as an assignment that would normally run in the day was tried in the evening, and we totally kicked ass.

Finished the WWE story commission and started work on the next one which is Arrow related  

Have to consider what groceries to get since it's that time again! Also pay Comcast and probably pre-pay the Water Bill as well.

Sea of Thieves and other notes

Striker was not able to join us this evening so Iceman and I held off on doing the 3rd chapter of the Monkey Island adventure, so instead we dropped in various islands finding loot and stuff, before realizing how the fishing mechanic works. 

So yeah, there could be times we are just fishing while playing Sea of Thieves

Sea of Thieves will return next Wednesday assuming Iceman is available, otherwise Smite will be on the agenda

Tomorrow's stream will feature Borderlands 2 as we'll start the Tiny Tina DLC content

For the raid we dropped in on Zonesama for the weekly Zone-Out stream

Work was super productive, wouldn't be surprised if the assignment closed this evening because of how awesome it was going.

Made good progress on the WWE commission request, will finish it tomorrow.

Somehow my Ao3 account was suspended... and I bet it was the result of trolls.

Borderlands 2 and other notes

So tonight we did the The Big Game hunt content in Borderlands 2 and I have to say... I didn't really care for it as much as the first two DLC expansions, mainly because it took way too long to figure out how to navigate things comfortably in the main area, and the amount of back tracking was rather obscene,

That said I did like how it pretty much ties into Tales from the Borderlands as Nakayama's obsession with Jack is pretty important to that games plot, so it was nice to see how his fall actually happened. The battle against Jackenstein was pretty gnarly. 

Not sure if we'll start the Tiny Tina DLC campaign for Borderlands 2 next, or wait and instead finish the main game. 

Borderlands 2 will return on Thursday

Tomorrow's stream will feature either Smite or Sea of Thieves 

For the raid we dropped in on MissCammi316 who was playing The Mortuary Assistant

Work day was very productive, and I do believe despite the unwanted days off in the last pay period I might get a little extra in my pay do to being about 20% over production

Finished one WWE related commission and started on the next request which is also WWE related. At least I've had a nice variety of stories to keep from being stuck in wrestling hell

Borderlands 2 Achievements

• Face Off: Completed the mission "The Fall of Nakayama"

Borderlands 2 and other notes

So Tonight's stream was really weird as we did the entire run of Mr. Torgue's Campaign of Carnage thanks in large part to a lot of folks jumping in at random. Now I did say I would considered not having it open for randoms to join in, but I went with it anyway. 

Of course things were made super easy when people who sunk hundreds of hours into the game joined in and it became a case of trying to keep up. Which also meant I didn't get to experience how some of the boss battles were supposed to go. But we take the good with the bad.

We finished the night at Level 32, and I believe all the DLC content enemies cap at level 30, so we should have an increasingly easier time at things go forward.

Tomorrow night we will continue Borderlands 2 and probably set my sights on the Hammerlock content which was the 3rd DLC expansion. Of course I could just go ahead and finish the game, but we're taking out time on games these days.

For the raid we dropped in on YourStarling who was doing a music stream. We use to do duets with them way back in the era of Twitch Sings

Work was solid this evening with a slighting longer survey, as well as a very confusing understanding of how Primaries work in Missouri.

Started on the next commission story which is WWE related. Would have had a lot more done... but I kind of didn't feel all there today and just rested.
