Today's Notes 6/29/21: Always Side With The Krogan

Good morning everybody,

Last night's stream saw a lot done with Mass Effect 3: Legendary Edition, in that we did everything that was pretty much Krogan related. First we went to do the mission where Grunt is leading a search party, and yes I made the joke about Shepard is Grunt's mother, since she (in this instance) raised him upon releasing him from the tank in Mass Effect 2 up through the events of the Suicide Mission against the Collectors. Beyond that, I loved how the remaster made the rachni queen look, it was fucking gorgeous!

After a few little searches for items and trip to the Citadel to turn in some side quests, it was off to Tuchanka, the Krogan Home World, where we did the missions there in the order of rescuing the Primarch's son, dealing with the Turian bomb and then finally curing the genophage. Now I go full renegade with a lot of Shepard's choices, but if there is one thing about the way I play Shepard is that she stands by the Krogan. Hell Shepard gets to know Wrex quite a bit in the original Mass Effect, even more so if you gets Wrex's armor.

That said, I can't really imagine anyone not choosing the genophage cure, there is such closure to the end of Mordin's character, the Krogan end up having a future and you make sure Wrex is there for the Citadel DLC stuff later in the game! That said we're about maybe 1/3 of the way through the game based on my current pace and not including the DLC stuff of Citadel, Omega and Leviathan, which I of course will play. If at some point I'm going to do an insanity play-through I will want everything maxed out.

Anyway, we did get a a few  achievements last night which I'll list next:

  1. Tunnel Rat: ME3: Survive the swarm
  2. Giant Killer: ME3: Defeat a harvester
  3. Pathfinder: ME3: Explore a lost city

And of course here are a few links to some of my favorite clips from last night as well

Twitch Clip: Grunt reunites with his 'mama'

Twitch Clip: BURN BABY! BUURRRRN!!!

Twitch Clip: Waking up next to Aria is always a good thing

Twitch Clip: Running Running Run Run Running!

Twitch Clip: Mordin's Final Moments

Off-stream. Made a little progress within Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's adventure mode, by clearing out the second major area, which leaves just the part of the 'story' where you end up facing both the light and dark entities at the end Would be nice to dedicate stream time to this, but since I'm so start and stop with that mode in Smash, it makes it tough to stream.

Added Kingdom Hearts; Melody of Memory to the collection yesterday, going with the Nintendo Switch version, because.... it was cheaper than the PS4 version! That's a good reason!  

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout went 31 minutes (minus time spent for stretching) with an estimated calorie burn of 494 kcal. The reason I've added stretching back in as of late is just to see how much has changed with my body over the past several months, and while i can't reach back to grab my ankles when doing a thigh stretch, I can easily place my hands on my knees when rotating them to the left and right. We are now up to 91 out of 100 for the Laura's Best Friend achievement. 

Tonight we'll be continuing Mass Effect 3: Legendary Edition, we'll tackle a side mission first then head off to do the Priority: Citadel mission which opens up Act II of the game. We'll get started around 6:30 PM Eastern assuming all goes well today!

And on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!

Today's Notes 6/28/27: 500 Wins As A Damage Role Player!

Good morning everybody,

Last night's stream of Overwatch was a lot of fun, as we got in a few Mayhem matches before the daily change over, then focused on standard quick play matches. Had plenty of wins and losses, ending on a 6-4 stretch... to bad the night ended with the 10th match in that run being a lost. Big thanks to PandaSweet for joining in on the fun, and hope some folks were able to get an Deadlock spray or two tonight, as we did extend the stream to 11:30 PM Eastern. We also picked up a few plays of the game as D.vs and Torbjorn as well!

Now I also hit a personal milestone, getting my 500th win as a Damage role player. Every since I started playing Overwatch, getting the opportunity to play as a character whose main focus is dealing out a lot of damage has been something I've been denied. This goes back to before the role queue, where the damage role often has the longest wait-times.... so more often than not I end up playing tank or support, getting pretty damn good with Dva, Reinhardt and Moira. So as of late, for the last hour of each Overwatch stream I've set that aside for me and whoever is with me to queue up only for damage roles.... because if I'm doing a 4 hour stream, and three hours are as a tank or support, I will want to play damage too! 

But to put in in perspective I have 311 hours as a tank with 1098 wins, 153 hours as damage with 500 wins and 328 hours as support with 1211 wins. My most used characters are

  1. Moira - 209 Hours (Support)
  2. D.va - 157 Hours (Tank)
  3. Reinhardt - 91 Hours (Tank)
  4. Mercy - 55 hours (Support)
  5. Brigitte - 34 Hours (Support)
  6. Ashe - 26 Hours (Damage)
  7. Orisa - 25 Hours (Tank)
  8. McCree - 24 Hours (Damage)
  9. Torbjorn - 23 Hours (Damage)
  10. Tracer - 17 Hours (Damage)

Of the 792 total hours I've spent playing Overwatch, 340 hours were in Quick Play, 250 hours are in Arcade Mode, 192 hours were in competitive, 7 hours in experimental and 2 hours 'Game Brwoser'. Keep in mind, I haven't played a competitive (ranked) match in quite a long time.

Anyway here are some clips from last night's stream!

Twitch Clip: Triple Kill... I'll Take It!

Twitch Clip: I Love Mayhem

Twitch Clip: That did not work out the way I hoped it would

Twitch Clip: Whew boy did that work!

Twitch Clip:  Oh boy!

We added three games to the collection yesterday: Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training, Bayonetta 2 (which a digital copy of Bayonetta 1) and Pokemon: Let's Go Eevee! What made me go after the Eevee version of the game is the fact it's a remake of Pokemon Yellow... but Eevee has a different skill set than Pikachu!  

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily work out was streamed this morning a little after 5 AM... because I couldn't get to sleep at all, so I figure why not just do it early to wear myself out! The exercise duration (minus stretching) was 31 minutes with an estimated calorie burn of 512 kcal. Since I don't route the audio to head phones during these sessions, near as I can tell my mic is set up in such a way that it will barely pick up audio from my monitor's speakers. So that was a cool discover. We are up to 88 out of 100 for the Laura's Best Friend achievement, which I should accomplish by the end of the week! 

And since this was also streamed, here are some clips from the morning workout! 

Twitch Clip: You can do it!

Twitch Clip: Ready Stance

Twitch Clip: Put The Body Into It!

Considered I quipped the character of Livewire was probably on the DC Animated Universe version of OnlyFans, I started dabbling out a fic based on how I've see the version of the character seen in DCSHG:TP. Probably will be a short fic with an open end ofr a follow up.

It's Monday which means tonight we'll be back to Mass Effect 3: Legendary Edition, with the flow of content being main mission, side quests, main mission. As I said, this run of ME3 is going to take a long time because of how I like to roam around the Normandy and the Citadel!

So on that bombshell, we'll see you later tonight over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!

Today's Notes 6/27/21: Star Sapphire Is A Little Psychopath

Good morning everybody,

Last night's stream totally focused on DC Super Hero Girls Teen Power as I covered every side quest that I could do before having to progress the story, which involved getting a lot of dedicated time playing as Star Sapphire, the last of the playable characters. I can see why they left her for last, because at first impressions she seems rather lackluster. She has some great ranged attacks, but if you're stationary with her she is a very easy target. Also she has really bad foot speed in comparison to everyone else, but like Supergirl she can fly, so if you can get a handle on that you can have fun using her. That said, Star Sapphire's obsession with Hal Jordan is rather funny, if a little creepy. The entire character related quest where Star Sapphire goes to talk to a tree because Poison Ivy does it is just weird. 

Now there were two side quests that proved problematic, one involving Harley Quinn where we had to be stealthy and I did so bad I had to use the 'assist mode', and the other was timed encounter to find jewels as Catwoman, where the placements of crates i needed to search were highly questionable!

In terms of the story, it certainly seems like Lex Luthor is up to something with the Toyman being involved... and their scheme certainly united the villains and heroes of Metropolis high to the point they are totally united... with the exceptions of Livewire and Posion Ivy who have their own things to work on. Speaking of Livewire, her social media attention wanting is such great fodder for Fan Fiction, like she would do anything for it... and it pops up in a big way with Harley Quinn wanting to mess with her over it. If Drace Domino is unable to do anything with that, I certainly will have to put in some time to put something together!

Anyway here are some clips are from last night's stream!

Twitch Clip: This is surprisingly relaxing!

Twitch Clip: Livewire is on Only Fans...

Twitch Clip: Star Sapphire has a hell of an AOE attack!

Twitch Clip: Harley Quinn Saves The Day!

On a side note, the VOD for Friday's stream of God of War is still missing as Twitch is still indicating that stream is still going! We may not port over the VODs for our play-through of it to YouTube.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 Daily Workout went 31 minutes with an estimated calorie burn 446 kcal thanks to 1155 actions performed. Only had once miss off of a straight from the south paw stance, but it was due to the left joy con de-snycing with the Switch. We are now up to 86 out of 100 for the Laura's Best Friend achievement. 

Did a little of stream Star Trek Online playing, and switched starships for Zagreus who is now in command of Kelvin Timeline Constitution class cruiser, ya'll will see that on Thursday night's stream! 

It's Sunday which means Overwatch is on the agenda for tonight, and since there is an event going on involving Ashe, you'll be able to earn some sprays by watching my stream tonight!

Today's Notes 6/26/21: A God of War and His Boy

Good afternoon everybody,

Last night's stream we started up God of War for the PlayStation 4, now I have not played a game in the series before, but much like with the Xbox One from early last year, we break in the console with the 4th game in a series (Well technically 6th since I do have a collection for the PS3 that has all 5 of the earlier games!). Anyway, first impressions is that God of War is a real gorgeous game, everything looks incredible, so as much as I knock Sony for their decisions when it comes to gamers, they do provide the hardware for developers to make some gorgeous stuff (which is part of why so many games from the PS2 and PS3 era still hold up).

We spent the night mostly roaming the first major area of the game, seeing that there were a few things I couldn't reach at that point in time while getting an understanding of the story, where Kratos has a son, and his wife (the boy's mother) is dead, and they are going on a long journey to spread her ashes off a mountain. Of course Kratos is not where he belongs and the locals (namely the Norse gods) want to have a word with him,

Now of course I will admit I'm not playing this on its hardest difficulty, because lets face it, everyone has seen me get killed on the easiest difficulty of some games.. and even with that, the default controls for God of War cross me up. There's something weird where for a game like this, where the light and heavy attack buttons are on the bumper and trigger buttons, so I end up pressing the face buttons, which causes the boy to fire his arrows.

And yes I know the boy has a name... but considering how quickly he got on my nerves, he's just... BOY!

Anyway, we'll continue God of War on next Friday's stream... but of course we have clips from last night to mark some of things that happen!

Twitch Clip: Kratos Is Gonna Put A New Condo Right Over There!

Twitch Clip: I do have the body of a god...

Twitch Clip: Gruesome!

Twitch Clip: Major... Major Trouble!

Twitch Clip: Grab It's Head!

And since God of War is a PS4 game, there were trophies (achievements) unlocked!

  1. The Journey Begins: Defend your home from The Stranger
  2. Nice Moves: Obtain a Runic Attack Gem
  3. Best Dressed: Craft an outfit for Atreus
  4. A New Friend: Survive the Witch’s Woods
  5. Dwarven Ingenuity: Upgrade a piece of armor
  6. Enchanted: Slot an Enchantment into your armor

We added three games to the collection: Ghosts of Tsushima for the PlayStation 4 which was recommended heavily by Iceman, as well as Mario Tennis Aces and Mario Golf Super Rush! I think we'll have a night where we play both of those games to see if I can learn how to play them!

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 Daily Workout went 31 minutes, with an estimated calorie burn of 572 kcal. It was a bit frustrating as the left joy con would have periods of 'resetting' in the middle of a combo, resulting in 5 missed punches that basically resulted in 4 great combos being prevented. With today's session we're now up to 83 out of 100 for the Laura's Best Friend achievement.

Tonight's stream will be night 4 of DC Super Hero Girls: Teen Power, last week we saw Harley Quinn and Catwoman become playable characters, which means Star Sapphire is left, and she's the typical spoiled bully whose mor concerned with their image and chasing the star Quarterback. I'm still not totally sure how many chapters are left in the game, but if it's tied to the buildings being built in Hobs Bay we may be 2/3s of the way through!

And on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
