Chris's Campaign In RE6 is Very Action Heavy!

Hi Everyone,

Tonight's stream ended at around 1:45 AM, and we opened with Resident Evil 6, playing with Iceman we finally started Chris's campaign, knocking out the first two chapters with various shenanigans along the way. Chris's campaign is certainly a lot closer to being a Gears of War game with how action heavy it is, but the lack of a cover system certainly makes it interesting, and it wastes no time in being very over the top. From a story narrative, Chris' campaign is fully focused on him having some PTSD, with the second chapter being a flash back to him losing most of his squad. Speaking of that, so far we've had squad mates for the majority of the first two chapters, really giving the Gears of War vibe.

It will be interesting if we can knock out chapters three and four next week, because we really flew through the first two chapters.. .granted we had some deaths and had to figure out how to get through some action set pieces. Oddly enough there aren't any puzzles, which certainly helps in getting through things!

After Iceman had to go, we loaded up Forza Horizon 5 to knock out a few things, I've been playing it casually off stream the past few days, so it's basically it is a throw too game. And considering the late night streams because of work, it's easier to play it than Fall Guys!

For the raid we dropped in on maximilian_dood who was playing Sonic Origins over on twitch.tv/maximilian_dood

 Work was aright getting one complete interview, which made me feel productive.

Got a new office chair, as I want to have the recliner for guests when they are hanging out with my on stream. I have to hook up the backrest to the arms because the chair has some weird instructions.

Did a bunch o yard work yesterday morning, and I really need to look into a permanent solution to dealing with grass and other plant life. My Uncle Freddy says get a bunch of weed killer.

Our next stream for Thursday night will begin at 9:30 PM and we'll lead off with DC League of Super Pets: The Adventures of Krypto and Ace. From what I understand it will be a short, so we can pair it with Street Fighter 6 and do some head to head matches.

So we'll see you next time 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...
