Good morning everyone,
Boy did last night's stream of Persona 5 Royal go long... as once again I made up my mind to just go for it when it came to doing the Palace as soon as we reached it. Thing is the entire four story arc of Persona 5 Royal was worth it as it revolved around the introduction of Futaba Sakura, who is probably one of the most popular of all the confidants in the game, depending on your point of view.
You see her story is something a lot of folks can relate to, a simple misunderstanding or remembering something wrong can ruin things for a lot of folks. While in the context of the game, Futaba clearly had her memories influenced, I think a lot of folks can relate to her in terms of wanting to shut themselves away from the outside world or to take that one step beyond if the pressures of reality are too much. A lot of people can relate to feeling like that... hell you can tell I do because I there is such a 180 degree difference between how comfortable I am working from home and having to deal with people face to face.
That said, I really enjoyed the layout of Futaba's palace, the Egyptian styling really was a nice change of pace, and unlike the first three Palaces in the game, Futaba's actually had a compelling layout that didn't make it feel like a chore getting through it. Some of the puzzles were a little odd,.. and dealing with all the enemies certainly made things interesting in regards to who was in the party (Mostly kept Morganan, Ann and Makoto).
The boss battle against a corrupted version of Futaba's mother certainly felt like it dragged a bit because of how certain things needed to play out, but the story of Futaba exercising her personal demons made it worth it seeing. I am very much looking forward to seeing how things play out during next Friday's stream of Persona 5 Royal.
That said, my screw ups in regards to the guide I'm using to try and progress stuff certainly is rearing its ugly head

For those that follow my YouTube channel located HERE... I went ahead and split last night's stream into two parts, both will be made available on April 21, 2022.
Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout was doing before 6 AM this morning, because as I said a few weeks ago, if a streak goes super long (as is the case with Persona 5 Royal), I might as well knock out the Saturday workouts as a way to wind down.The exercises were Advanced Combo #1, Weaving Combo #1 and Intermediate Combo #2. I did set a new personal best for Uppercut Combo #2 on No Mercy, so that was a plus.

Happy birthday to the amazing Kalenal, who will be doing a birthday stream today over on twitch.tv/kalenal! I believe they will be playing Final Fantasy XIV!
After months of speculation, Toni Storm finally revealed that the reason why she left so abruptly was because she felt the WWE wasn't for her professionally. No shock there, too bad more folks haven't figured that out and continue to hang on to their 'spots'... (Dolph Ziggler, Natalya Neidhart are examples 1 and 2 respectively)
For tonight's stream, well, we'll probably mess around with a few random games, not sure what as of yet. But you know we'll be up to something!
So on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
