Today's Notes 4/9/21

Good morning everybody,

Last night's stream of Star Trek Online was the usual as of late, where it was just me doing random stuff for my own amusement more than anything. Hell we spent a large chunk of time just roaming around Defara, one of the many neglected areas of STO. Now of course, last night wasn't totally free of incident, when someone we haven't seen since the whole exodus to Mixer fiasco from 2018, and they tried to defend STO very lightly but all I had to do was just roam around and point out how barren some things are and they shut their traps real damn quick. 

Again, ya'll know I like Star Trek Online, but when you put as many hours into as I have, you'll know I'm not going to defend it, hell the fact that there are 15 different in-game currencies can't be defended when the developers went out of their way like eight years ago to try and simplify things only to gradually complicate them over time

Got my copy of Ghostbusters / TMNT 2 yesterday, and flipping through it, I can safely say it was an enjoyable read, with a nice variety of artwork that shows the differences between the different dimensions most of the characters went to. Normally when you have multiple artists working on a mini-series, there would be wild differences in what the reader sees from page to page, but I got to give the people at IDW credit in terms of presenting a clean look to what they publish.

Knocked out some more War Table stuff off-stream for Dragon Age Inquisition last night, as well as trying to finishing up what collectables I could. I do wish there was an easy way to find what regions in the various open areas I've been to because I'm mission one in Crestwood. 

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 session was solid, about 30 minutes, plus I did a little extra because you know I'm working on the achievements. Doing blocking motions have become increasingly troublesome because it never seems to register the same way twice. 

Tonight's stream will be focused on the PlayStation 3, as we'll bounce from game to game doing random stuff. For sure I know we're gonna start with The Simpsons Arcade Game, since that was a PSN Store title. Beyond that, everything will be kind of random.

And on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden


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 mad...
