Well So Much For Getting Back To Normal

Good morning everyone,

Well right before I was about to start work yesterday, I got a call saying the shift was cancelled, and now I'm back picking up spare hours on the evening shift, which means tonight's stream will start at 9:30 PM.

Anyway, last night's stream opened with Fall Guys, and shockingly, I was able to win a squad show being the last 'bean standing', I've certainly lucked out a fair amount, and we came close to winning a solo show as well. 

We also checked out PowerWash Simulator, and I can see why that game is both addicting and frustrating, because when it gets down to like a few percent points left, you end up wondering where to look to find the last few things to spray. At least there is an indicator of when something is clean before moving on.

But the main event of course was Resident Evil 6, and with Iceman along for the ride, we covered the first chapter of Leon's campaign. Now it turns out Iceman's difficulty is locked in on normal, while my difficultly is at amateur. The pace of play being faster than Resident Evil 5 is a huge plus, along with being able to do melee attacks. Now I did say during the stream we're playing it for shits and giggles, and there were plenty of both, and I'm really looking forward to next Wednesday's stream for more of the same!

We had two raids during the streams, one from Taffe316 (twitch.tv/taffe316) and from Edheldisrien (twitch.tv/Edheldisrien), thank you so much for bringing your communities on over!

For our own  raid we dropped in on SweetLindir who was playing Smite over at twitch.tv/sweetlindir

The latest short story commission request on the books is for another Mass Effect tale, and I have some ideas of what to reference during it in regards to Mass Effect 3, since it's taking place after the Cerberus invasion of the Citadel and involves the Virmire Survivor. 

Speaking of Mass Effect, that is the plan for tonight's stream, we'll hang out on Pinnacle Station to try and get closer to a couple of achievements before we move on to other areas in search for any side quests. We'll try to delay advancing the plot as much as possible.

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...
