Vampire Survivors: Simple, Difficult And Awesome

Good afternoon everyone,

Last night's stream of Vampire Survivors was a lot more fun than even I was anticipating as I figured out what combination of items worked out best for me, and having some runs that lasted over 20 minutes!  One thing I did realize is that the Pentagon power up is a great screen clear, but it not only takes out enemies, but also all the XP gems and pick-ups that are on screen. In terms of levels, I did make it to the 3rd level of the game overall, and found the mandatory item... but to progress further would require a lot grinding to build up the powers up one can have heading into a level. The music in the second stage, the library is pretty kick ass. Of course there was a hilarious moment that when I took a break I forgot to un-mute my mic.

Also the stream featured the unboxing of the latest Funko POP I've added too my collection of WWE's Becky Lynch, in particular the 'Becky Two Belts' variant, so now I have all three Funko figures of the last Superstar in wrestling that really had my full attention.

During the stream we had a big raid from Kalenal who was playing Tunic over at twitch.tv/kalenal! 

For our raid, we dropped everyone off over at YrGamerBunni's stream who was playing Mass Effect 3 (Legendary Edition) over at twitch.tv/yrgamerbunni! 

Now that I think about it, yesterday was the most achievements I've earned on a game through Steam in quite a while since I've mostly focused on console gaming over the past 18 months.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Uppercut Combo #1, Hook Combo #1 and Waist Shape Focus Combo for 30 minutes.

Capcom had some interesting thing in their showcase, with Monster Hunter Rise getting a big update, Exo-Primal getting a new trailer, hype for the Capcom Fighting Collection and Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium. I know a lot of folks are excited for things being added to Resdient Evil VILLage with it getting a story expansion and a third-person mode.

Speaking of Capcom, Dragon's Dogma has celebrated its 10th anniversary and I totally forgot LvStrkr gifted me that game early last year.  Really going to have to give that a look probably once Persona 5 Royal is finished.   

Put in the pre-order for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge, so I we'll be featuring that on Stream for Saturday this week. I now have to think of when was the last time I did anything associated with the Ninja Turtles on my channel and I think it was with Out of the Shadows back during my 2nd or 3rd year of streaming. Oh wait, I know I played the Arcade ROMs of the Arcade Game and Turtles in Time.

Started work on the latest commission fan fic request, and I'll admit I'm lifting Cody's post match interview whole-sale to serve as the introduction and awkward transition to the action.

For tonight's stream, we'll be getting back to Persona 4: Arena and working on the story mode... and I realize that there is probably an efficient way to go through it. 

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