Good afternoon everybody,
Well thing were shorter and longer than I expected yesterday, but at least when I woke up this morning i saw something I was expecting. to do was not going to be on the agenda for today, so I just went back to bed.
Anyway last night's stream of Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy basically covered chapters 5 thru 8 of the game, meaning we reached the Half Way point. Turns out the big plot revolves around Nikki, the apparent daughter of Starlord, witnessing the death of her mother and has gained god-like powers which has lead to the creation of a crazy space cult. Now i'm really stretching my brain on this but in the comics I don't think Starlord has a kid... but I could be wrong.
The Knowhere space port was really we designed, certainly in most games there would be a lot to do there, but since I want to make sure the Guardian's pay the fine, there was clearly some temptations to mess with some apparent mini-games, but they seemed more like rigged games of chance... so I didn't risk it.
The use of Starlord's mother in this game certainly draws strong parellels to the the Guardians of the Galaxy: Telltale Series game from a few years ago,. I did like the supposed dame over bad ending that takes place if you don't resist the illusion .
The combat within the game is certainly getting more hectic, as Chapter 8 probably took a lot longer than needed, because I actually died a few times during it. But the check points are pretty fair... for the most part.
Following the stream, we hosted Maximilian_DOOD over at twitch.tv/Maximilian_DOOD as they were playing Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid. I admit, the host was mostly because I needed to hit the rest room, because I do like to chat a little with whoever I'm raiding.

Facebook has new video publishing tools... now that I think of it, when was the last time YouTube updated their own?
I really have no dog in the hunt as it relates to everyone being mad at Toei... because lets face it, Japanese fair-use laws are different than fair-use laws in the United States. That said, TotallyNotMark is overrated
My off-stream Final Fantasy XIV adventures saw a little bit of progress, as I knocked off 20K Gil for the Doma Enclave reconstruction effort, and knocked off some Main Story Quests (namely the ones from 'The Ladder' to 'Meet The Tholls'). Since I discovered the Tholls featured side quests, I'm going to tackle those before advancing the story ahead, just so I'm not missing anything. I suspect, this will lead so something where I need to have a crafting skill leveled up to like 80 or something... which is rather silly.
For tonight's stream, we'll lead off with Jump Force as we grind towards some single player achievements and we'll also play Gears of War 4, to wrap that up!
So on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
