The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and other notes

Hi everyone,

Well today started with my electric and water bills both being paid straight away, so that was a hell of way to get things going. But things improved with some stocking up of a few goodies for the kitchen, some easy to peel oranges and a few things to go with stuff I already had. And I order a BBQ rib platter from Blowin' Smoque which was fucking delicious!

Also picked up the 2023 Convention Exclusive Funko Pop of Rita Repulsa from Power Rangers. 

On the down side, I am rather irritated with the idiots constantly littering on the sidewalk next to my house , found a near full set of Heineken bottles and the cardboard container just laying there, like fucking really?

Anyway, tonight's stream started at 5 PM Eastern as I'm experimenting with earlier weekend start times to off-set Monday to Thursday night streams being shorter in length. Tonight we featured The Texas Chain Saw Massacre which is available on Game Pass, and I can safely say I see the influence of Friday the 13th The Game (Since the same people are involved) along with Dead By Daylight, (Helps that Leatherface is in both games and basically handles the same way). The game is pretty much pick up and play, but the tutorial is a little lacking just giving broad over views in a video format.

I really don't have a favorite 'victim' yet, but as far as the Family members go, I really like Sissy because she can actually sustain a chase through most maps and follow through narrow passages. Leatherface and Johnny are pretty cool as well, but i really don't like The Hitchkiker or The Cook.

Will we feature this game again? Probably, we can play a little after doing some Resident Evil 6 some on Wednesdays. 

On a side note, the stream did go down for about 10 minutes due to an outage from Xfinity, and they said there is scheduled maintenance this evening at 1 AM, so hopefully whatever was going on they fix.

For the raid we went over to twitch.tv/elegantlyslays which was also featuring The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.

Did a fair bit of writing this afternoon as well, finishing of a WWE Short story commission while forgetting one of the details that was requested (which I felt bad about), and started on another Persona 5 related story. Did pick up another short story commission based on Resident Evil which I'll start tomorrow afternoon.

Of course on Monday I have an in-person interview at what was West Jersey Hospital. I'll take a Uber to get there and probably take buses back. 

Our next stream is scheduled for 5 PM on Sunday evening over on twitch.tv/fredcasden, which will feature Overwatch!

And on that note, good night!
