Hey... finally played a Resident Evil game on stream!

Good morning everyone,

I will admit today was one of those days where I didn't feel like I getting out of bed, like I heard my alarms going off, but I just didn't feel like moving as I just laid in bed thinking to several hours. This reflected on my Fitness Boxing workout this morning as well, as I only did 18 minutes. 

Anyway, work yesterday was... shorter than expected, but the assignment was interesting, as we were interviewing folks in New York regarding a public official, and its always interesting to see how people answer when asked straight forward questions.

Last night's stream opened with Fall Guys, and I was apart of a winning show in a squad. With the double XP on Show points, we were able to gain a lot of shards considering I have the base battle pass completed. I do have to point out that reoccurring problem of Fall Guys just starting duo and squad shows with teams that are at an unfair disadvantage. Squads are supposed to be teams of fours... but if your team only has three people, you're basically screwed from the word go!

We also played Resident Evil 5, and we have to thank Iceman for being apart of the fun on this, as I was certainly struggling in dealing with the controls which aren't as good as I would expect considering the types of enemies running around. Still since it was designed with co-op in mind, having Iceman's help and experience meant we kept the death count fairly down. I think if Capcom designed the game with mobility in mind, it would be a lot more straight forward in being able to handle things.

That said, we did knock all of chapter one and the first half of chapter two... and the boss fights we encountered certainly were more puzzle based than I anticipated. Although one encounter resulted in us both being roasted alive!

For the raid we dropped in on pradoxgamerau who was playing Stellaris over at twitch.tv/pradoxgamerau

The plan for tonight stream is to continue Hades, We already have five escapes under out belt, and we need five more! If we get can get two done tonight that would be awesome! Of course the success of each run depends on the weapon along with the boons we're able to pick up along the way.

Basically crashed to bed right after the stream, so I didn't get to do any of the writing I had planned, but I will work on the Daria story after tonight's stream. Or even before, depends on if work if cut short again.

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