Bayonetta certainly has style

Good morning everyone,

So last night we finally started Bayonetta, and yes, we are playing it on the Easy difficulty, since the three available difficulties were Very Easy, Easy and Normal. Still I'm amazed at the pace of play, as we cleared the first seven chapters of the game. Now after playing it, I can safely see why Bayonetta as a character connected with players because of her rather raw, unapologetic personalty and..'unique' way of showing off her looks... it does make me wonder... how the hell did she end up in Super Smash Bros other than Nintendo basically owning the franchise.

But if there is one draw back to Bayonetta as a game is that I'm not a fan of the camera, as there were a few instances of me falling off ledges, not being able to see if there are side paths and not being able to see enemies from different angles. There's also not being able to fully tell where exactly I have to go, despite the linear nature of each section.

For the raid we dropped in on MerlynTemple who has decided to start streaming again, last night they were playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons over at twitch.tv/MerlynTemple

Mom is out of the hospital and is at a nursing & rehab center, it'll be tougher for me to visit her, but at least now she'll be able to start working on getting some strength back.In fact she has her first physical therapy session today. If anyone would like to donate to her gofundme dedicated to covering medical related costs, please visit: https://gofund.me/6adf8354

Finished another short story Mass Effect  commission request, and picked up another one, that will be set during the Arrival DLC for Mass Effect 2, which should be a bit of a challenge.

Today's fitness Boxing 2 daily workout out featured Hook Combo #1, Waist Shape Focus COmbo and Weaving Combo #2 for 28 minutes.

Did you hear the rumor about butter? Never mind, I shouldn't spread it.

Song of the Day: Paradise by Coldplay.

For tonight's stream, we're continuing Bayonetta, and there is a possibility we might be able to finish it tonight, which would be really cool if we can pull that off!

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


Persona 4 Golden and other notes

We opened up Persona 4 Golden tonight, and the intro certainly reminded me of the one for Persona 4 Dancing All-Night... and of course I mad...
