Resident Evil and other notes

Hi everyone,

Tonight we wrapped up Resident Evil HD, finishing with a play time of just over 12 hours, which wasn't bad considering how I was making blatant use of a guide to get through every puzzle while and to have a heads up of the various dangers presented in the game. I did have some serious questions of 'how exactly did Chris' get captured when Jill, Barry and Wesker made it into the mansion at the start of the game. 

Anyway we did not get the good ending as Barry ended up getting killed by the Tyrant at the end of the game as I kept missing shots with the grenade launcher, but I did save the game where I could give it another shot at some later point. 

Would I play this game again to do the Chris side of the story and the answer is... maybe? It's kind of a tough call considering that A) Chris's campaign is much more action heavy, B) I struggle with aiming and C) he has fewer inventory slots. Still we had fun, and I will say Resident Evil is a game that people need to play at least once.

For the raid we dropped in on lilmoolah_who was playing Baldur's Gate 3

Starting tomorrow, we'll be starting up Sonic Forces, a game we did feature on an all day Christmas stream a few years ago, but that was the Steam version, this time we're playing the Xbox one, so we'll be seeing some achievements popping!

Resident Evil Achievements

  • Trust Him: Save Barry from Lisa Trevor.
  • Where the Magic Happens: Break into the laboratory using Jill.
  • Sorry About the Wait: Save Chris from confinement using Jill.
  • Alpha Team's Finest: Finish the game using Jill.
  • Like Taking Candy from a Baby: Finish the game on Very Easy difficulty or higher.

Monday was the firs day in a few weeks without any work, but I was told something should be in place on Wednesday. Surely hope so.

Knocked out a Spider-Man / Captain Marvel commission story and I think I was probably able to do more to fix the MCU version of Carol Danvers but actually giving her a personality.

Current commission story in progress is based on The Reign of the Supermen film, and I can safely say, I hate the design of Superboy in it. Because I still have some comics from actual Reign of Supermen story arc, I remember how Superboy looked and acted, and he wasn't considerably short or puny when compared to other characters... the movie makes him look like a kid, which wasn't the case at all when the character debuted!

Anyway, once that story is finished, I'll have another Spider-Man story to do followed by one focused around Rooster Teeth.

And on that note, good night!
