Cyberpunk 2077 and other notes

Hi everyone,

Work tonight was pretty solid, not as good as Monday night, but was solid, at the very least I didn't have to talk to heavily loyal Trump followers, which was a good thing. I did interview a person who was 99 years old who was still fully invested in what's going on in the world.

Tonight's stream of Cyberpunk 2077 was real interesting a I got a little more comfortable with the combat mechanics plus reached the big story point in the game where Johnny Silverhand gets inside V's head. I have to say I'm not too keen on Keanu Reeve's performance so far, because otherwise I'm going to start thinking he did this role for the pay check. Jack's death was really well done I feel, as it followed a big plot point and a nice action set piece.

I kind of feel like I'm going to have to do a lot of open world stuff in this game to make sure I can over power and brute force my way through situations.

For the raid we went over to twitch.tv/misscammi316 who was playing Smite

Did a fair bit of writing today, finished the Resident Evil short story commission where I really put a twist on the character of Rebecca Chambers at the expense of Richard Aiken, but the later was not really an important character in the games anyway.

Got another short story commission request on something related to the YouTube Channel for Rooster Teeth, so I'll have to figure out that.

Also started work on the third chapter of my Persona 5 Alternate Reality series, where I'm really going all in on using some characters from Persona 4... which is funny since I never play that game, but I know enough about characters like Chie, Naoto and Yukiko from the spin-off games to get an idea of how to use them for the plot.

I thought I had a second job interview this week, but it's not till September 7th.... fuck.

Out next stream over on twitch.tv/fredcasden is scheduled for 9:30 PM Eastern if there is work (which we always hope there is), and we're going to hold off on Resident Evil 6 this week as Iceman has to work late, so instead we'll continue with Cyberpunk 2077. 

So on that note, good night everybody!

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...
