Today's Notes 4/7/21

 Good morning everybody,

Last night's stream of Dragon Age Inquisition was mostly focused on the open area called Emprise du Lion, where we dealt with bears, a desire demon, Red Templars... and three dragons... and we didn't battle those dragons in order from easy to hardest, no no no.... we took them on back to back to back because I came across Kaltenzahn first, which was a pretty drawn out battle nearly using all my potions to keep folks from getting knocked out.... then I stumbled across Highland Ravager, the toughest of the base games original 10 dragons with only three potions left and that saw my party being KO and me solo battling it with bunch of little dragons coming out to cause me a headache (this made me glad I choose the Champion specialization and that I crafted the armor I was using)... and then finally we came across Hivernal, which is the weakest of the three dragons in Emprise du Lion, which was a cake walk in comparison to the first two. 

At this point we only need to take out one more Dragon for an in-game achievement, and it's in the last area we have yet to explore which will be the focus of Monday's stream. Also of note, I'll be periodically loading up Dragon Age Inquisition off stream between today and Monday to tackle what's on the War Table since now a bunch of 2 to 7 hour long items popped up on it due to actions taken during the last two streams of the game.

Following last night's stream I loaded up Overwatch to begin work on grinding out for the first of three weekly skins associated with the Archives Event, and I like the tweaked that they made. Instead of it being 'win base', it was focused on getting stars on the archive PVE missions (Uprising, Retribution, Storm Warning) with a 2X multiplier applying if you do the listed mission for a faster path to getting things done. PandaSweet also joined in for a few runs as well which was awesome. In terms of the new skins, my favorite is Tracer's 1776 skin, because she is dressed as a British soldier from that time period and because of all the British is Coming innuendo jokes that  can be applied to it thanks to the R34 and Fan Fic communities.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 session was solid, nothing to troublesome, just a good 35 minute workout as we continue to get use to Sophie's speaking style when giving instructions and keeping the player (aka me) on rhythm with the sequence of punches and movements need to be perform. I did not do anything extra with today's session however, just did the base daily workout.

Tonight we'll be back to ESPN Baseball on the PlayStation 2, as we're closing in on the All-Star break of the 2004 season with a very large lead in the NL East. I believe we got a 4 game series with the Mets and 3 game series with the Braves before the All-Star game, so I'm thining we'll play the first two games of each series and depending on time we may play the All-Star game outright. Who knows

Anyway, on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
