Overwatch 2 and other notes

We were joined by PandaSweet for many matches in Overwatch this evening, and I branched out a little playing as a wider variety of characters that I normally doing use, and ended up having some very decent moments as Repaer and Zarya. About a year ago I got the first of Zarya's two character related achievements and tonight I got the other. 

Of course there was a huge issue with running into random who were either choosing not to fight on the objective or going so far out of their way to show off it kept putting us on the back foot. So yeah, I checked out of several matches.

Overwatch 2 will return next Sunday

Tomorrow's stream will feature Borderlands 2 as we turn our attention to the next DLC related thing

For the raid we dropped in on samaell_alwahm who was doing a music stream we dropped in

Finished the NHL related story this afternoon and the next one on my agenda is WWE related, which thankfully should only take maybe a day and a half 

Going to record this weeks Daria reaction before going to bed as we're up to episode 9

Overwatch 2 Achievements

• The Power of Attraction: Capture 4 enemies in a single use of Zarya's Graviton Surge in Quick or Competitive Play.

Persona 4 Golden and other notes

We opened up Persona 4 Golden tonight, and the intro certainly reminded me of the one for Persona 4 Dancing All-Night... and of course I made sure to voice my displeasure for Teddie right off the bat. We're playing this on the easiest difficulty to ensure we can cover a lot of ground, and do a lot of level grinding (already hit level 10 for the 'Hero').

Rather impressed how detail things get with a lot of the dialog, with some jokes really hitting the target perfectly. There is probably more of a sense of urgency with Persona 4 Golden than Persona 3 Portable because of the weather factor. I do wonder if there are save points in the dungeons as well or some sort of safe room or some sort of mid-level save mechanic as with Persona 3 Portable and Persona 5 Royal. 

Also despite my disdain for Teddie... I am surprised that he was really subtle at first... until he hears the 'scoring with studs' from Chie....

Persona 4 Golden will return next Saturday!

Tomorrow's stream will feature Overwatch 2

For the raid we dropped in on foxy_harley as they were doing a Just Chatting theme 

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

Knocked out the My Hero Academia commission request in the afternoon, and I'm going to try and not put any thought into continuity or world building going forward

Started work on the next commission fic, which is NHL related will need to use an awkward in story 'cut transition' to make it so I can probably knock out 80% of it during the day

Persona 4 Golden Achievements

• The Other Self: Obtain the Persona Izanagi.
• Advantage Mine: Enter a battle with Player Advantage.

Ghost of Tsushima and other notes

Tonight we knocked out the four areas to find the Khan armor in Ghost of Tsushima, and mostly just roamed around finding a couple of side quests (doing one which had a disturbing twist) and found a few things in the extreme northern part of the map. 

I do have an idea of where two light houses are and we're steps closer to completing several the the collectable lists. Way I figure we should finish the Ghost of Tsushima with at least 80% of the Trophies unlocked.

Also completed the Sly Cooper outfit... for the lone trophy earned this evening.

Ghost of Tsushuma returns next Friday for more wandering around action!

Tomorrow we're starting Persona 4 Golden!

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

Work was solid if unremarkable... will have to reply on my SubscribeStar earnings to make sure I break even after bills get paid next Friday

Speaking of which got a good start on the My Hero Academia story which I should be able to knock out in short order during the day tomorrow 

I did behave myself and not order takeout today... but I did misbehave by having about 5 small meals... and by small I mean at least two of those meals were enough for probably two people.

Ghost of Tsushima (PS4) Trophies

• Cooper Clan Cosplayer: Dress up as a legendary thief.

Borderlands 2 and other notes

Tonight's stream of Borderlands 2 was a mix of getting things done and over leveling myself for the original story content... as well as seeing the problem with playing with others in it. The big issue is a lot of people want to speed through things while I want to take my time... which was certainly the case in regards to some buried  treasure.

We did finish the Captain Scarlet and her Pirate's Booty story, so we can now either focus on the next DLC content or go back to the main story of Borderlands 2

Borderlands 2 returns on Monday

Our next stream on Friday night will feature Ghost of Tsushima

For the raid we dropped in samaell_alwahm who was playing Genshin Impact

Work was bleh... felt barely productive and incredibly long

Finished the WWE story commission so next on my agenda is a My Hero Academia related one.  

I really hate it when people leave my gate open when they come to my front door trying to get me to go their church.

The Xbox 360 store is shutting down soon... a shame many developers never bothered to make many of their games backwards compatible

Borderlands 2 Achievements

• Cute Loot: Killed a Chubby
• Treasure Hunter: Completed the mission "X Marks the Spot"

Sea of Thieves and other notes

Tonight, Striker and Iceman were apart of the fun in Sea of Thieves as we knocked out part two of the Monkey Island cross-over adventure, and the 2nd chapter was certainly a lot more puzzle heavy and cryptic much like the original Monkey Island game. 

I did like the inclusion of the Insult Sword fighting, the appearance of Stan and many of the call backs to the original game Monkey Island game. I am convinced that a full 3D remake of the Secret of Monkey Island game will actually be really cool in regards to how well Melee Island looks.

Sea of Thieves will return next Wednesday, depending on the availability of Iceman and Striker

Tomorrow's stream will feature Borderlands 2 as we continue the Captain Scarlet content

For the raid we dropped in on ZoneSama for their Zone-Out stream featuring Bravestar and COPS

Work was solid if a little less productive than yesterday

Finished the second of two Fairy Tale commission requests, next up is a WWE related one, which is already about 20% complete.

Sea of Thieves Achievements

• Port of Call: You paid a visit to the sprawling Port Merrick.
• The Quest for Guybrush: You completed 'The Quest for Guybrush' Commendation.

Borderlands 2 and other notes

Tonight's stream of Borderlands 2 saw us go into one of the DLC  content of Captain Scarlet and her Pirate's Booty, which has everything scaled to be at the the mid to up 20s in terms of levels, which means I'm getting to grind out levels to put myself in a good position to make the main game's final few mission areas trivial.

Was joined by a couple of people at random, so I got to see how much more damage is needed to be done to enemies with as many as two other people playing at the same time. Only problem is since I don't use a headset voice chat was not possible.

Borderlands 2 will return on Thursday

Tomorrow's stream will feature either Sea of Thieves or Smite, depending on who is avaliable

For the raid we dropped in on gatling_hawk who was also playing Borderlands 2

Work was solid this evening despite a weird moment where I got disconnected even through there was no issues with my internet connection.

60% finished the current commission request based on Fairy Tail, will easily finish it tomorrow, trying to get it as close to 5000 works as possible

Picked up the Grandia Collection for Xbox... one of these days Grandia III will see a port

Borderlands 2 Achievements

• Decked Out: Had Purple-rated gear or better equipped in every slot
• Always Improving: Reached level 25

Borderlands 2 and other notes

We got a fair amount done in Borderlands 2 this evening, with several side quests and two big story mission that reunites the Vault Hunters from the original game, which basically puts us on the homestretch of finishing the game.

I need to figure out the level start points for Borderlands 2 DLC as I would like to do them before starting on the final leg of the game which is focused on taking down Handsome Jack. I know at least two require to be at level 30, but there should be others

Borderlands 2 will be back tomorrow night

For the raid we dropped in on sweetlindir who was playing Fortnite

Work was super productive this evening, we closed out an assignment, but then switched to one that broke my brain because of who we were looking to speak to went from listed only to anyone.

Finished one Fairy Tail story for a SubscribeStar request and now working on another story based on the anime / mangafor a Commission. It's about 15%  done

Borderlands 2 Achievements

• Farewell, Old Girl: Completed the mission "Wildlife Preservation"
• Well That Was Easy: Completed the mission "Shoot This Guy in the Face"
• Got The Band Back Together: Completed the mission "The Once and Future Slab"
