Horizon Zero Dawn and other Notes

Tonight we banged out a bunch of trophies tied to exploration and side activities in Horizon Zero Dawn, plus several side quests, including the big one tied to the Thunderjaw known as Redmaw. If everything plays out right, we should be able to get enough skill points via the main story quests, since at this point that is the main things we have to focus on. At the moment, Horizon Zero Dawn is slated for Friday night, but I might put it on Saturdays to finish it out, with Persona 5 Tatica in four of the dive weekday slots.

Out next stream will feature Overwatch, haven't played it at all this week due to getting a bit sick and sleep getting thrown out of whack because of it.

For the raid we dropped in on Kalenal who was playing Final Fantasy XIV!

Horizon Zero Dawn Trophies

  • Cleared all the Bandit Camps: Took back all settlements from the bandit clans.
  • All Corrupted Zones cleared: Killed all the corrupted machines in every Corrupted Zone.
  • All Ancient Vessels found: Found all the Ancient Vessels.
  • All Banuk Figures found: Found all of Arnak's figures.
  • All Metal Flowers found: Found all of the Metal Flowers.
  • All Vantages found: Found and accessed all of the Vantage datapoints.
  • All Acquisition machines killed: Killed at least one of every type of Acquisition machine.
  • Hunted Redmaw with Talanah: Rose through the ranks of the Hunters Lodge and helped Talanah defeat Redmaw.

 Had a hard time knocking out a Resident Evil related commission, basically having to rewrite everything that was slated for it and take things in a different direction.

I know have back to back WWE related commissions and will be getting started on the first one shortly, as the queue is now up to nine stories. Depending on how wonky work gets this week with the Thanksgiving Holiday I might be knocking out a couple on in a day (or at least the ones that do not involve more than two characters)

Good night!

 

Persona 5 Tactica and other notes

We started Persona 5 Tactica today, and while it certainly takes a while to get going because of the long opening, this game continues all of the usual charm that I've come to expect from the Persona franchise, The fundamentals are clearly easy to learn but really tough to master, as I'm a complete novice when it comes to tactical based RPGs. The music and voice acting is top quality I fell.

Unlike everyone else, I elected not to the do the DLC story first because I wanted to understand how to play the game, because even on Safe Difficulty, I feel like I have to be very mindful of what moves I make.

We'll continue Persona 5 Tatcia on Monday's stream!

Our next stream will featured Horizon Zero Dawn as I decided not to continue playing Starfield, because at least with HZD I feel like I'm engaged with the content!

For the raid we dropped in on djparticle who was playing Splatoon 3

Persona 5 Tactica Achievements

  • Lavenza's Aid: Gained the ability to fuse Personas.

Word was solid today, a few friendly folks to interview is always nice.

I'm currently working on a Resident Evil commission request, and that should be finish tomorrow... kind of over though out to use some elements of Resident Evil 3 and the chapter is turning out a bit lackluster.

Following it on a back to Back WWE related commissions requests, followed by Batman, Jimmy Neutron, Rooster Teeth, a 3rd WWE story and Star Wars tale. In a way I'm glad I'm off for Thanksgiving, and that some of these are concept that should only get around 2500 words, but of course I'll shoot for 3000 as always.

Good night!

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...
