Borderlands, Work and other notes

Hi everyone,

We had work on Monday, and got off to a good start with a solid interview and then it mundane, which wasn't helped by the fact I over ate when I ordered some Chinese Food, but re-heated General Tso's chicken never tastes good!

Tonight's stream of Borderlands saw us taking our time and knocking out various side quests and objectives while making our way to New Haven, which is where Marcos and Scooter hangs out, which also puts to where we can meet Tannis. We had more random help, but my lack of speed when playing a FPS that isn't Overwatch is very apparent. as I struggled to keep up with someone who clearly put in a ton of time into the Borderlands franchise on the console side.

We're continuing Borderlands on Tuesday's stream with the goal of knocking side quests first before meeting with Tannis, depending on where they take me and how easy it is to get around. It will be open to all random players, so it could end up kind of nutty

For the raid we dropped in on TokuSHOUTsu during the marathon of Ultraman Ginga S over at twitch.tv/TokuSHOUTsu 

Did a lot of writing as well, writing a Persona story based around a corrupted Velvet Room attendant and started work on a new commission request based around Justice League Dark: Apokolips War, while also getting another commission request for a Mass Effect story based around the mission that takes places on Sanctuary in Mass Effect 3

I have a virtual job interview on Tuesday afternoon, hopefully is goes well.

Our next stream is scheduled for 9:30 PM Eastern, assuming there is work in the evening. I might start early if there isn't, but since  I have two stories to write, I may work on those.

So on that note, have a good night and 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...
