Forgot How Long The TellTale's Game Of Thrones was

Good morning everyone

Last night's stream featured episodes one and two of Game of Thrones: A Telltale Series, and yes the plan was to play episode three as well... but I forgot how long TellTale the episodes could be, not to mention, with how I was taking my time with it, still this means we'll get three weeks out of it instead of the expected two, with episode three and four next Tuesday, with episodes five and six the following week.

In terms of how I'm playing, I'm trying to thing a little different with Mira Forrester since she's basically all on her own, but that kind of is what it is. Otherwise, I'm going for the Forresters in general to just basically wanting the Whitehills' heads on pikes. One does have to appreciate the cameos from the show... even though I never watched a single episode of Game of Thrones.

To pad things out a bit, we did load up Cacpom Arcade 2nd Stadium because... well there getting to 100 hours of game to knock out, not to mention the long grind towards

On a side note, note sure why the Sidekick 'BRB' reel was not working the way it should have. In fact it wasn't working particularly well on Monday either. Hopefully it'll sort itself out, otherwise I'll have to come up with some audio for the BRB screen.

For the raid we dropped in on PowerThumbZ as they were playing Vampire Survivors over on twitch.tv/powerthumbz!

Work yesterday was surprisingly decent, as I came across some very cooperative people in interview which was really nice.

Got a bit of writers block on finishing the short story commission request based on Batman: The Killing Joke, mostly divided on how I want to end it.

I stupidly (or wisely) loaded up Person 4: Dancing All Night and basically did all the tracks on Easy difficulty to see how many I could unlock, which was quite a few. It does seem that a couple are truly tied to the story mode or require some other method to unlock them.  Still with the songs unlocked and done, we'll have more a variety in between the chapters when we resume the story mode on Friday night's stream. Also picked up one Trophy as a result.

First Impression of Pokemon Violet

Good morning everyone,

Last night we finally started up Pokemon Violet... and I have to say, the open world aspect of it certainly meant that the tutorial part of the game took me way longer to complete than most people, because I often like to over power my Pokemon as much as possible early on. Still it did mean we put a nice dent into capturing quite a few critters early on. Did clear the first gym to get off the right foot, and it's made very clear to me level grinding is going to very important to be able to tank some serious hits.

On aspect I don't particularly care for though is the camera angles in open world battles against wild Pokemon, because it means from a streamer point of view, the Pokemon in question could end up being behind where my camera box is positioned. Other than that I find that it is pretty much the continuation of numerous mechanics seen in Pokemon Shield, with the Giga-sizing gimmick being replace with the Tera-Styling one.

So for now Pokemon Violet will be locked in on Monday evenings going forward, so we'll have my very slow gradual process with it to experience, considering there are three story arcs to complete in order to finish the game.

The first season of Overwatch 2 ends on Monday I think, and I have an excellent shot of getting the level 200 battle associated with the Battle Pass. 

Got a follow up call from Xfinity regarding the issues I was having this past Saturday, after I escalated things to the FCC (again), instead of moving forward based on the tech visit from the 19th, they are basically starting over from scratch. In short, a tech is coming out on Saturday to do the same checks that were done two weeks ago.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Sway Back Combo, Intermediate Combo #2 and Hip Shape Focus Combo for 31 minutes.

No problems tonight with a flawless stream of Overwatch 2

Good afternoon everyone,

Well last night's stream went about as perfectly as possible, with not a single frame drop, not sudden resets, hell there weren't any of the latency issues that I've seen cropping up in Overwatch 2 either, so it was as good as possible. Big thanks to BangBangBang and PandaSweet for being apart of the many matches, as we won, lost and kicked butt all night.

Picked up two Plays of the Game, one as Mei and one as D.va, which is always cool. Much like how I did for October I will put all of November's Plays of the Game together in its own video. Other characters used were Wrecking Ball, Junker Queen, Lucio, Torbjourn, Junkrat, Soldier 76 and Orissa.

Folks also saw that I moved the camera to be off center, so it's on me from the side. Part of the reason was because of my often dead-pan expression. Plus I look better from the side than I do head on I think

Finished The 3rd Dragon Ball short story commission I've received this past week, and folks seem to enjoy it. Picked up another commission request based around Batman: The Killing Joke, or rather the film version with the focus being on a scene that in the movie but not the comic. Anyway, I did find the scene on YouTube and found a transcript of the dialog and already converted it for the commission request.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Beginner Combo #2, Uppercut Combo #1 and Advanced Combo #1 for 34 minuets.

For tonight's stream, the plan is to start up Pokemon: Violet, I already know what my starter is going to be. It's funny, this will be the fifth Pokemon game I've streamed over the past three years. I do know when I slotted in the game card, there was a patch update of some kind, so hopefully I won't run into any of the glitches other players have ran into

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

A Frustrating Night Thanks To Xfinity

Good morning everyone,

Since the Xfinity tech came out last Sunday, I only had one day with issues while streaming and that was last Saturday night... tonight saw a return to the issues I was having with constant stream resets and clear network path issues that I thought were resolved. First attempt at streaming was at about 6:30 and it was resetting every 5 to 15 minutes. I downed the stream at 7:30, did a full restart of the PC and the modem, while also calling Xfiniy with the ticket number from the last set of issues. After being blatantly lied to I was given a new ticket number and was told things would be escalated because of the prior issues. Out of about 4 and half hours of stream time, only two and a half hours were archived

I might just star recording Streams to my hard-drive while streaming and uploading them directly to YouTube at the very least that would mean footage wouldn't lost. But just for the record, as I was uploading the highlight reel for the week on YouTube.. it took 40 minutes.And considering the highlight reels are often less than 6 minutes long, that is a problem.

Now we did play MultiVersus, Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed and Capcom Arcade 2nd Stardium. And I should probably talk about Marvin the Martian who was just added to MultiVersus. He's labeled as an Assassin class, but he doesn't seem to have as much of the versatility that Harley Quinn does. We had several good runs in Ghostbusters, and even picked up an achievement. When we got to Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium, we played Last Duel and Pnickies. Last Duel has some really wonky enemy placement, while I also ranked 56th in the world for Pnickies on a score challenge.

Starting writing the third short story based on Dragon Ball yesterday afternoon and found a way to tie it in with the first two stories written. Why do I always try to build some type of canon with what are obviously one shot tales?

Start of a new week, so lets recap what we featured over the last seven days which was Overwatch 2, Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova, Vampire Survivors, Dragon Ball FighterZ, Fallout 76, Fall Guys, Final Fantasy XIV, Persona 4: Dancing All Night, MultiVersus, Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed and Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium!

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

Another Friday and Another Persona Dancing Game

Good afternoon everyone,

Last night's stream of Persona 4: Dancing All Night got off to an awkward start because a) I didn't realize there were DLC tracks for the game b) I didn't change the title or game category. Whoops on my part! Still once we got rolling, I was able to find my comfort zone with P4D rather quickly, with my biggest concern being the weird charting this game has in comparison to its Persona 3 and Persona 5 younger siblings. More so than those two games, P4D was clearly meant to be played on the Vita, as even on Easy I have trouble picking up on how some notes appear. 

Now the story for Persona 4: Dancing All Night is rather intriguing, as the Investigation Team is practicing to be apart of Rise's comeback but then group of Idols goes missing as they were pulled into the world of the Midnight Stage... where the only way to save them is to dance. Sure the premises is silly, but the question of who is behind the mystery has my attention. It does make me think that the Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight and Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight could have been just one single game with a looming threat that had to be dealt with through dance but oh well.

Now because of the story mode, we'll tackle it in segments, with doing 1 full chapter then doing some free dances, then another chapter. I figure we'll get at least three weeks out of the game since there are eight chapters. Of course I'll probably put in a lot of off-stream grinding because of how unlocks are handled.

Persona 4: Dancing All Night Trophies

• What's a "Miss"?: Cleared a track with no MISSes
• Hit the Dance Floor: Cleared 1 track in Free Dance

Always finding something new in Final Fantasy XIV

 Good afternoon everyone,

Last night's stream started with Final Fantasy XIV as we got back to side questing, by clearing out all the side quests remaining in the areas introduced to Shadowbringers. I still have to level up Carpentry up a major way to unlock a few other little quests in one of those areas, but all the main side quests are done. I then found myself back at Revenant's Toll finding more 'A Real Reborn' side quests there, and two interesting ones. The first being a tie in to Minfilia's death to wrap that up with a pendant being buried, and the other was a quest where the player becomes a stooge... I mean carrier in training for a PostMoogle (aka a Postman). That opens up a series of side quests that actually adds lore and content to minor, yet key NPCs the player meets in their journeys. Looking forward to going through those.

We also did a bit of Overwatch 2, as we were joined by PandaSweet to take a little advantage of the Double XP Weekend. I picked up one play of the game as Brigitte which was cool.

How did I spend Thanksgiving day you may ask? Well I did put in some more play time on Vampire Survivors in the late afternoon before the stream.

We Broke 1000 Gamer Score On Fallout 76!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone,

Last night's stream featured two games, with the first being Fallout 76 and the goal was to get two achievements to make sure I reached the 1000 gamer score mark. Now why was that a big deal? Simple, it's because for a lot of games, 1000 gamer score indicates completion with all achievements unlocked. Since Fallout 76 has an open ended story, I needed some kind of marker to indicate 'finishing' the game. My next goal in this game will be to reach level 100, but that it'll be something in 2023 when I reached that mark.

What does this mean for Fallout 76 going forward? Well I'm thinking I'll split Wednesdays between it and something else, because we can still help Iceman with his adventures. 

Fallout 76 Achievements

• Breach and Clear: Win the "Breach and Clear" Event
• Monet of Murder: Mod 50 Weapons
• Monster Mash: Complete the "Monster Mash" Event

Now we didn't spend the entire stream on Fallout 76, we switched over to Fall Guys, and I loved the new sliding race, can't help but to go Wheee! During it. Now it was also a night of near improbability, as I nearly won a few shows in both Duo and Squads modes. Would've been epic if we could've won, but the fact that I was involved in the final rounds was awesome.

Started work an hour early yesterday because shift was called super early because of the Holiday weekend, still it was super productive so it 'should' balance out. That said I have a 5 day weekend.

Finished the Dragon Ball commissioned story yesterday since I had the extra time, I probably put more time into trying to include references and characters than the actual action of the story. Picked up another commission request for another Dragon Ball story early this morning to feature Gohan.

I continued my off-stream push through Vampire Survivors and find myself 12 achievements away from completing the game. Once I figured out what worked for me in terms of surviving, this game became incredibly easy. 

Vampire Survivors Achievements

Dragon Ball FighterZ is Finished!

Good morning everyone,

Last night we wrapped up Dragon Ball FighterZ, going through the back end of the Android 21 story arc... or shall we call it the practice learning Android 18 showcase, because I did virtually every fight with 18 in the line up... except for those that involved having to set up 3-person conversations. I really liked the conversation 21 has with Piccolo and Tien, as it serves as a call back to Piccolo's soul link with Kami and the concerns regarding they would have over defeating Evil 21 and if it would cause Good 21 to disappear. 

Now we wrapped up the Story Mode at about 940 PM, so I made an attempt at getting an S-Rank on an arcade run... getting S Ranks on the first fights, only to earn an B rank on the third, which brought the arcade run down to a A-Rank. Also figured out how to do the Dramatic finishes... and by figure out I mean look up to see that it simply involves hitting someone with a Vanish Attack or a neutral heavy attack... and that's assuming the characters have dramatic finishes for their opponents... so we ended up seeing Bardock and Yamacha's.

Dragon Ball FighterZ Achievements

• Link Level 40: Story - Raise Link Level to 40.

Work was decent yesterday, speaking with Kitchen and Bath designers right before Thanksgiving is always a treat when people are looking to get out of the office.

Rather surprised the 76ers won last night, I actually said on stream that I was expecting the Nets to win because of the injuries to 76ers Roster. 

Played some more Vampire Survivors last night and 'beat the game', as indicated with the Greatest Jubilee Achievement. At this point, it's all about fulfilling some of the games objectives to clean up all the remaining achievements.

For tonight's stream, the plan is to play Fallout 76 and I'll be looking to do two things during it, Breack and Clear... and Monster Mash... because if I get those two achievements, it would put me right at 1000 gamer score, and that is the condition I've set to consider Fallout 76 finished.

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

Star Trek Prodigy Supernova Is Finished!

Good morning everyone,

Last night we finished Star Trek Prodigy: SuperNova and the final two stages took an hour each to get through, and the way I figure even with quickly advancing through the dialog it would be nearly impossible to 'speed run' those levels solo because of the types of puzzles involved in them. That said I did enough the final boss fight against the System Slayer, and how everything wraps up nicely. I'll most likely end up trying to find the remaining collectables off-stream to see what 'cheats' are unlocked.

Speaking of the System Slayer fight I did love the fact that all the mechanics that are taught during the game in how to deal with the Watchers are basically used for it, so it's not having to figure something out as was the case with the two earlier big bosses.

This does indeen mean Pokemon Violet will begin next Monday nigh, and hopefully there be a patch update before then to address some of the issues players have already experienced.

Prior to the stream I was playing Vampire Survivors just to knock out a few achievements, and because I had a few things on my mind and wanted to clear my head before stream. But since we wrapped up Star Trek Prodigy: SuperNova at an early enough time, I switched consoles to feature Vampire Survivors on stream and had a few successful runs in it.

A Fun Stream With No Internet Issues

Good afternoon everyone,

Last night's stream of Overwatch 2 was the first stream in a few days that didn't have any sudden restarts or other known issues, which I'm rather happy about.We were also joined by both PandaSweet and BangBangBang for lots of matches, which was incredible, with several great matches, that of course results in either wins or losses... there are no draws!

In terms of characters I used, well there was D.va, Moira, Reinhardt, Wrecking Ball, Mei, Brigitte and several others, even picked up a few Plays of the Game as Mei, D.va and Reinhardt. Oddly enough I'm feeling a lot more comfortable playing Wrecking Ball, he's moving beyond the, 'well match is lost, let's haev fun category' that the likes of Doomfist is in. Actually at this point, Doomfist is the only tank in that group for me, along with the likes of Widowmaker, and Kiriko.

Picked up a new Commission Short Story request this time based around Dragon Ball with it having to use the characters of Goku and Videl. I think I'll make use of the Room of Infinite Bullshit... err... the Room of Spirit and Time as a setting piece.

Something that went under the radar is that Atari released a 50th Anniversary Collection... which actually includes games from beyond their glory days of the early 80s, as there are titles in it from the Lynx and Jaguar era of gaming as well! Now if only Sega can do that.

Put in some more achievement hunting in Vampire Survivors. Actually cleared the 5th Stage fairly easily. But in terms of the bonus stages, there's a special place in hell for whoever came up with the spinning effect for the Moongolow.

For tonight's stream, the plan is to finish Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova, and then maybe try and do some achievement hunting in it as well. Should be an easy going stream.

So on that note we'll see you alter over at twitch.tv/fredcasden!

So my internet problems have to do Xfinity's poor infrastructure

 Good afternoon everyone,

So yesterday afternoon the Xfinity tech came out and saw that everything was literally perfect with things at my house, but the real problem was with the infrastructure of their network beyond my house. He said it was with the 'Plant' which serves the area, and that yesterday things were really bad (as we experienced on last night's stream), things were better today with only two sudden stream resets.

So as for last night's stream it was a variety night starting with Fall Guys, and I actually won a show! I made damn sure to get the clip for that right away. Also played some MultiVersus and managed to get myself closer to earning the achievement for playing 100 matches in a 'party' Won one match with an epic double elimination that resulted in a come from behind victory. Next was Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed where I won my first match while being a ghost, and I managed to score some achievements in that while also getting my first win playing as a Ghost, before playing a few matches of Smite losing 2 and winning 1 to close out the night.

Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed Achievements

• Animated: Haunt 50 Objects in a single match
• Tobin's Prodigy: Fully Haunt 10 Locations as a Ghost
• Whoopsie: Destroy a very Expensive Object

Twitch Clips

• Whoa-oh-oh!

• GET IN THE BOX! 
• Achievement: Whoopsie
• First Kill With Anhur 
  
• The one highlight I had from this match...
•  FelkimChi's Victory Fanfare Redempetion Leading To A Double Kill!
  

For the raid we dropped in on MissCammi316 as they were playing Dead By Daylight over on twitch.tv/misscammi316!

Finished the Commissioned Fan Fic request for a Halo story featuring Commander Palmer and Master Chief. I really should play the Halo games in order to actually understand these characters at some point.

Did some Vampire Survivors runs after the stream and picked up several more achievements. Would be fascinating if I actually 'complete' this game.

Vampire Survivors Achievements

• Banish 2: Fill 70 entries in the Collection.
• Coffin: Mad Forest: Find and open the coffin in the Mad Forest.
• Coffin: Inlaid Library: Find and open the coffin in the Inlaid Library.

We Finished Persona 3 Dancing in Moonlight

Good afternoon everyone,

As the title states, we finished Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight, knocking off all the remaining Social Links before doing Elizabeth's 8th one that triggers the credits. I totally forgot that I changed some things after last Friday's stream to set up going after two achievements that were only possible once Elizabeth was unlocked as a lead dancer. Now I did focus on several different aspects of things I wanted to do beyond achievement hunting, namely trying to get a Brilliant score on several songs on Normal Difficulty, some took multiple attempts to do. I could've had a King Crazy on a few songs, but the charting of the notes baffled me at the worst possible times.

On the down side, the stream was broken up into multiple parts due to sudden drops in internet download and upload speeds. In fact at 647 PM Eastern I had 10.80 Mbps Down and 0.38 Mbps Up. Now unlike Thursday night, I basically plowed through hoping we could get hour plus blocks of footage, resulting in three separate segments. Now Twitch listed my total stream time last night as 5 hours 46 minutes... however only 4 hours 36 minutes was actually broadcasted. I got more to say about this, but I'll save for when I talk about work down below.

Of course the next game we'll be playing on Fridays will be Persona 4: Dancing All-Night, and unlike its Persona 3 and 5 cousins, the Person 4 dancing game does not take place in the Velvet room, but in the 'real world'. It leans more in the visual novel style with a more fleshed out story mode. Hopefully 

Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight Trophies

• Best Buds: Explored all the guys' rooms.
• The One Who Gathered the Glasses: Obtained all the pairs of glasses.
• Fashion Monster: Obtained all the costumes.
• The Dependable Classmates: Cleared the stages where Yukari and Junpei dance together.
• Koromaru's Rival: Obtained all rewards from Elle-P's card search.
• Down to the Bone: Unlocked all Custom modifiers.
• The Party Never Stops: Made Elle-P's ball a success.
• The Selfish Producer: Had Elle-P join the ball.
• The Dancing Jeweler: Obtained all of the accessories.
• It's Gotta Be You: Watched all Social events.
• Can't Say "I Don't Care" Now: Watched every possible dance for the P3 Protagonist (Makoto Yuki).
• The Dancing Anti-Shadow Weapon: Watched every possible dance for Aigis.
• Dancing in Moonlight: Obtained all trophies.

• Elle-P's Big Surprise!
• Here Comes Elizabeth 
• They are doing a trade off!
  

For the raid we dropped in on Hawleigh who was playing Jackbox Party Packs over on twitch.tv/hawleigh! 

Work was rather bleh yesterday, but the noticeable thing was that exactly at 3:45 PM for the second day in a row, my internet download and upload speeds dropped significantly and this carried on through damn near the entire night, seemingly to settle down around 10:30 PM. Now I don't want to hear about 'peak hour' nonsense, because if that bullshit was actually true wouldn't I have these issues be reoccurring since everything was fixed back in September?!

Did find out that for sure I don't have work Thursday because of Thanksgiving, but Friday is up in the air because of an assignment that may start that day 

My Copy of Pokemon Violet arrived yesterday morning, and it most certainly take over the Monday slot in my Twitch line up... after we finish Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Straight Combo #2, Difficult Challenge COmbo #2 and Block Combo for 31 minutes/ On a silly note, the first song in Fitness Boxing 2 to hit 100 times played is 'Don't You Worry Child' by Swedish House Mafia

For tonight's stream, which hopefully will go well with not problems, will feature a variety of stuff, MultiVersus, Fall Guys, Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed... basically whatever casual nonsense I feel like playing.

So on that note I hope we'll be up and running later over at twitch.tv/fredcasden!

Xfinity Service Got So Bad Yesterday

Good morning everyone,

Yesterday afternoon at about 345 PM, I noticed a sudden drop in my internet speed while working, (and having a pretty good day too), then when I ran a speed test I saw my internet speeds were at 124 Mbps on the download and 1.1 Mbps for the upload... and considering i pay for 400 Mbps / 10 Mbps, that was a major problem. So I went ahead to rest my modem... and that did not work. I called Xfinity directly and they didn't see anything wrong, but scheduled an appointment for a tech to come out on Saturday afternoon.

So all fine a good right? Well I noticed that my speeds would improve to being back to normal, then dropping off again in the early evening, and I tried to star a stream for Final Fantasy XIV at 7 PM when a speed test results looked normal. But nope, everything went in the crapper straight away. I called Xfinity back, this time to try and get some answers... and after being hung up on twice, I finally got through to someone who was able to see the inconsistency with my service, and they told me I was having these issues going back to Friday.

Which makes sense because I had indications of YouTube telling me I was offline when I was online, I just chalked it up to an issues with YouTube, and had a real tough time uploading a few highlight reels to my Facebook page. So at the very least I got a $30 credit put on my account with Xfinity, and hopefully these issues can be resolved with the tech visit on Saturday.

I did hanged out on Kalenal's stream as they were playing Final Fantasy XIV over at twitch.tv/kalenal, and I ended up playing Vampire Survivors for a good portion of the evening, and managed to knock out several achievements. More on this in a bit.

Now about 10 PM things looked like they got to normal, so I started up a stream to get in some Final Fantasy XIV action for the week. My plan to do Side Quests was negated so I ended up doing Raids. We also worked in Vampire Survivors into the stream as well, with the focus on clearing Stage 4 with a level of 80 or higher, which I managed to do as Mortaccio. The build I ended up using practically made me immortal.

For the raid, which happened at 1 AM, we raided MajorTom928 who was also playing Vampire Survivors over at twitch.tv/majortom928.

Anyway work was solid yesterday as I said earlier, just too bad I lost the final hour because of the internet issues. On the plus side, I did get an automatic call from Xfinity saying they 'fixed' the issue, but I did not cancel the appointment for Saturday afternoon, because I know how that works.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Intermediate COmbo #2, Sway Back COmbo and Hip Shape Focus Combo for 31 minutes.

How Would I Consider Fallout 76 To Be Finished?

Good morning everyone,

Last night's stream of Fallput 76 was productive in a few ways as I actually got daily quests done that I started months ago, one of which lead to an achievement. Which actually brings forward the condition of which for when would I consider Fallout 76 to be a finished game... and I have two qualifiers for it. Either I get the 'I Have Become Death' achievement worth 50 gamer score... or I earn enough of a gamer score through other in-game achievements to hit 1000... and all I need is 40. 

There are two Event related achievements associated with the Monster Mash & Breach and Clear events that I could focus on whose achievements are worth 20 each, and also doing favors at the White Spring would net an achievement to get 30.

Big thanks to Iceman who was part of the stream last night to help with challenges, and for alsoresubscribing to the channel for the 56th month in a row! I always appreciate the awesome support for the things that I do! 

On a side note, the stream re-started twice times, but there were no internet issues that I could detect on my side, so I'm assuming it was on Twitch's end somewhere. I of course will continue to track the issues as best I can. Knowing Comcast, they are going to blame it on the weather.

Fallout 76 Achievements

• Queen of the Hunt: Complete "Queen of the Hunt"

Played some more Vampire Suvivors last night and banged out a bunch of achievements, I'm having a bit of tough luck on the 4th stage, which I came very close to clearing but it introduces some very weird elements late in the 30 minute duration. Also earned my 4,000th Xbox achievement as well.

The Android 21 Story Arc Is Basically A Spotlight For Android 18!

 Good morning everyone,

Last night's stream of Dragon Ball FighterZ was focused on the Android 21 story arc... which actually was mostly focused on Android 18 and Android 16 because they are the only playable character up until the boss fight against Cell on Map 11. So the fights end up being either 2 versus 1, 2 versus 2 or 2 versus 3.

Now I wonder why Android 18 gets the big spotlight, now it's obvious because she was the lone female character on the launch roster that was playable from the start... and also because she was created by Dr. Gero as part of his quest to avenge the Red Ribbon. Actually those are the only reasons, but the funny thing is, 18 gets perhaps the easiest path to hit Level 40, in fact we finished tonight being in the mid 30s, putting us in a good spot to hit level 40 as part of next Tuesday's stream. 

Anyway. I am kind of amazed that they went the full Majin Buu Good / Evil split with Android 21, which in a way makes sense to keep her as a protagonist in addition to capitalizing on her Buu like design, but this does raise questions.... such as how did anyone get Buu's DNA?!

At the very least we'll be finished with Dragon Ball FighterZ next Tuesday, as we have 5 or 6 more maps to cover to finish up the Android 21 Story Arc. So we're looking for two achievements, but at the very least we'll get one.

For the raid we dropped in on BestiBunni who was playing Cyperpunk 2077 over on twitch.tv/bestibunni! 

Work yesterday was... alright... nothing special, felt a bit productive to an extent.

Per the recommendation of Lunar_Princess, I picked up Akiba's Trip as a game that is a PlayStation 4 exclusive... but the version Amazon delivered wast he Region 3 version for Japan. Oh well, good thing the game discs can be used on any PS4 console. Still it is rather funny anomaly in my collection.

Also picked up Hentai vs. Evil for the PS4... and Amazon sent the Region 2 version.

Donald Trump announced he's running for President and I said it last night on stream, the sooner he is six feet under, the better. Watch the Republican Party just 'bow and kiss the ring' because of how idiotic they have become, The GOP is now where near what it was back when I first was able to vote back in the early 2000s. 

Played some more Vampire Survivors last night and figured managed to complete two stages, which means basically surviving for 30 minutes. Turns out evolving the book and the water leads to some heavy duty areas of effect!

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