A Solid Night Of Overwatch

Good afternoon everyone,

Last night's stream of Overwatch saw the usual break down as mostly matches in the flex role (which meant Tank and Support) before dedicating the final hour to playing Damage role characters. Big thanks to PandaSweet for being apart of the fun. Picked up three plays of the game last night as D.va, Reinhardt and Torbjourn. Other characters used were Junkrat, Mei. Wrecking Ball, Ashe & Moira. Think in our last 10 matches we went like 5-5... not 100% sure but I'm not about to go check. 

On a side note we did have a brief issues with Xfinity, my internet service provided during the stream... where it didn't go down fully, but it certainly interfered with the strength of signal to Twitch.

Twitch Clips

During the stream we had a raid from YrGamerBunni who was playing Halo: Infinite over at twitch.tv/yrgamerbunni!

For the raid we dropped in on Flint_Locke who was playing Higurashi no Naku Koro ni: Chapter 8 - Matsuribayashi over at twitch.tv/flint_locke

I mentioned it last night during the stream, but one has to admire the balls of Capcom to be putting out two compilations of arcade games that have some of the same games in both collections within a month of each other and charging the same amount for both. Of course I would go for the Capcom Fighting Colleciton first because that can and will be a streak of featuring the games in that collection... and then grab Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium down the road.

Disney is doing another live-action remake with Hercules... and unlike with most of their live action efforts, this one makes sense because there is little chance they will screw up the casting... oh wait... this is Disney... and they picked Will Smith to step into the role of the Genie for Aladdin...

Played a couple of matches of Assault in Smite last night, winning one of the two. Always nice to be able to split the difference.

Today's FItness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Defensive COmbo #1, Double Combo #1 and Uppercut Combo #2 for 28 minutes.

Shaved off my beard... I'm now a lot less fuzzy on the face.

Watched the first episode of Stargate SG-1 for the first time in a long time, it's amazing how much Richard Dean Anderson brings to the role of Jack O'Neil right off the bat.

Finished the WWE commissioned fan fic featuring Cody Rhodes & Brandi yesterday afternoon... and thank goodness I used the post-match promo he did at WrestleMania because it served as a great framing device. Ended up getting another commission request, again WWE related, this time to do something involving Brock Lesnar.

For tonight's stream, well we're going to wrap up Persona 5 Royal... we started it as a Friday Night Exclusive back in mid-February, and outside of one week where we also did a Saturday night stream, we kept to that. But with not much left to the game we'll take out time in finishing the remaining days with one final trip to Mementos, then give the Calling Card to Maruki, kick his sorry butt then it's just the time skip that occurs to Valentine's Day and then White Day to close it out.

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

Overwatch 2 and other notes

We were joined by PandaSweet for many matches in Overwatch this evening, and I branched out a little playing as a wider variety of character...
