Cyberpunk 2077 and other notes

Hi everyone,

That muscle cramp on my left calf is still bothering me over 24 hours later, real weird to continue feeling the effects that long.

Anyway, got the dishes done, and it's amazing how little dishes I use, then again I tend to do the classic quick rinse after I eat to reuse stuff. 

Tonight's stream of Cyberpunk 2077 started at 5 PM and ended after midnight, because I focused on finding all the missing travel points which took awhile, and we were able to complete all the NCPD spots and the side gigs to clear out things in Pacifica and Heywood. Plus we advanced the main plot finding Alt Cunnigham and advancing the plot to a very large degree.

In fact, near as I can tell, everything let is either time locked side quests or main story content, so we have an outside shot of finishing Cyberpunk 2077 before the Liberty DLC Expansion and rework which appears to totally screw with the combat and inventory system that I've spent over 65 hours getting use to!

For the raid we went over to twitch.tv/kalenal who was playing Final Fantasy XIV 

Order dinner from a place called the El Buger Bar... and their 'Big Boy' burger is fucking massive, plus their cheese fries are big and chunky! A lot more filling than getting something from McDonalds.

Got a lot of writing done yesterday, finishing two story commissions, one based on WWE and another based on the 2002 George Lopez sitcom, which instantly lead to the client wanting a follow up to that. Also worked on the 5th chapter of my Persona 5 AU story, with the introduction of FeMC from P3P and a cat-person version of Morgana

Hmmm I have no other notes of interest, so with that, have a good night everyone!

Horizon Zero Dawn and other notes

 Hi everyone,

Work was okay tonight, could've and should've had four full interviews done, but ended up with two due to people refusing to answer simple yes or no questions . Ah well.

Picked up a few extra things for my food supply to keep myself from ordering take out this week, as electric and water bills were paid. So everything is taken cared of for this month.

Tonight's stream of  Horizon Zero Dawn saw a big focus on roaming around and exploring, realizing there are mounts and various side things to do, such as clearing bandit camps, finding metal flowers and other things to keep one busy. We did advance the plot a bit with the finding the War Chief, but for the most part, getting a feel for if I want to do everything or just focus on the main story.

Horizon Zero Dawn Trophies

• First Metal Flower found: Discovered a strange metal flower.
• Reached level 10: Reached player level 10.
• All Suns at one Ground: Earned at least a Half Sun mark in all three trials at one Hunting Ground.
• Stealth killed 10 machines: Performed a stealth kill on 10 machines.
• First Tallneck Overridden: Scaled a Tallneck and accessed its information.
• First Ancient Vessel found: Found an ancient vessel once used by the Old Ones.
• First Bandit Camp cleared: Took back a settlement from a bandit clan.

Our next stream is scheduled for 5 PM Eastern over on twitch.tv/fredcasden and will feature Cyberpunk 2077. From what I understand the new DLC content rolls out on the 21st of September, so that's going to make things real interesting on how it effects my current game.

For the raid we went over to  twitch.tv/yuzuponen who was playing Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door

For a fair bit of writing done, knocking out the first of two back to back WWE commission requests and starting the other. Also got a request to see if I can do a trilogy of stories based on the first George Lopez show (the one from the early 2000s) which is odd. But hey, it's helping pay the bills.

Did have a muscle spasm on my left calf today which hurt liked hell... and its always the left calf that I get them on! Certianly made going up and down stairs difficult today!

 And on that note, I'm going to bed!

Cyberpunk 2077 and other notes

Hi everyone,

Work tonight was solid, even if we're still dealing with a 25% drop in hours, but hell, I felt productive and got several completes done. Just wish the we were going for more than just a few people.

Job hunt continues to go poorly as well, as anything I know I can do I am too far away from or requires to be living within a certain radius

Tonight's stream of Cyberpunk 2077 saw us finishing up the last of the Cyberpsycho events and getting about 60% of the last side quests in one area done, next time we play the game on Saturday, that will be my major focus as I think I just have the gigs to do. Also progressed Panam's character quest, and the entire 'great train' robbery was kind of neat. Finding the talking pistol named Skippy was a bit odd, but hey, I've seen talking weapons in the Borderlands games.

Cyberpunk 2077 Achievements

• I Am The Law: Complete all Cyberpsycho Sightings.

For the raid we went over to twitch.tv/oldish22 who was playing Path of Exile

Our next stream is slated for 9:30 PM Eastern over on twitch.tv/fredcasden and will feature Horizon Zero Dawn

Finished up the third straight Resident Evil commission request and now I have two back to back WWE related ones... I sweat being pigeonholed holed for all the wrestling related stories I've done from 2004 to 2016 continues to come back to bite me in the ass 

Eagles won two games this week, which was nice, but Dallas Godertt is really under performing so far this year, when the lst few years he was awesome. More concerned for my Fantasy Football team than the Eagles to be honest.

And on that note, time for bed!

Resident Evil 6 and other notes

Hi everyone,

Work tonight was already as we closed out an assignment regarding education issues in the Los Angeles area, and it did amaze me how residents in the city have positive opinions about the schools their kids attend, but have negative views regarding the School District in general.

Tonight's stream of Resident Evil 6 saw Iceman and I replaying the first two chapters of Jake's Campaign to see if could get some Xbox achievements to pop. Unfortunately that wasn't the case for me, as the in-game list of achievements says I have them. But on the positive side, We were able to get achievements to pop for Iceman so it wasn't a total loss. Now we can revisit Resident Evil 6 down the road, but it'll be quite some time before we do.

During the stream, we did pick our next Wednesday night game which will feature Journey to the Savage Planet, I know nothing about it other than it can be a co-op experience. So we'll look into that next Wednesday.

My next broadcast over on twitch.tv/fredcasden is slated for 9:30 PM Eastern and we'll be getting back to Cyberpunk 2077

For the raid we went over to twitch.tv/zonesama as Cecilia Littlewing was hosting

I am in a nice string of Resident Evil short story commissions, focusing on things during the Outbreak era, and trying to write an evil Jill Valentine while also taking into account the creature called Nemesis is quite interesting.

Got some general groceries today as well, mostly ramen, pasta, some beverages, and stuff. 

Discovered that my trash was not picked up last week, so I now have two garbage bags behind my house that need to be picked up. So I'll be keeping an eye and ear out for the garbage trucks.

Had to put down that I won't be able to attend one of my cousin's Bat Mitzvah in November, primarily because of transportation being a problem combined with the possibility of starting a new job around that same time frame. 

And those are all the notes for today, have a good night folks!

Cyberpunk 2077 and other notes

 Hi everyone,

Work got cancelled tonight, which was particularly frustrating as I woke up feeling awful and was in bed most of the day. Like what the hell man...

Anyway, with no work tonight, we started tonight's stream Cyberpunk 2077 at around 7 PM and ended a bit before 11 PM, we covered a lot of side quests, clearing out everything in the City Center. which took two hours before doing some Side Jobs and advancing the main story by starting Gimme Danger, which is one of the main plots. Perhaps the biggest thing done was possibly trying to lock in a character romance with Panam, who seemed pretty cool if a bit bratty.

Cyberpunk 2077 Achievements

• City Lights: Complete all gigs and NCPD Scanner Hustles in City Center.

For the raid we went over to twitch.tv/lilmoolah_ who was also playing Cyberpunk 2077

Our next twitch.tv/fredcasden broadcast will feature Resident Evil 6 with Iceman in an attempt to get the three story related achievement that did not pop for us, two of which happened in Jake's Campaign and one in Ada's. So hopefully this will work out, plus the silliness of Resident Evil 6 gets featured one more time. The stream will start around 9:30 PM Eastern regardless of their being work or not (but of course we want work!)

 Speaking of Resident Evil, finished the 10th story in the series of commissions of putting a darker twist on it, and started the 11th installment. These are basically covering for lost work hours at this point. Also someone came to me asking if I could possibly write stories where a character is the host, which wouldn't be too hard, as I've done stuff like that in the past. To bad it's going to tie in with pro-wrestling, but I can't be choosy at this point

The Phillies had a big comeback on the Braves tonight only to lose in the 10th inning... and the fact they are playing .500 baseball at this point is concerning. They have lost too many winnable games this month.

And on that note, I'm heading to bed,

Good night everyone!

 

Cyberpunk 2077 and other notes

 Hi everyone,

Work tonight was a bit of a slog, sure i was able to start some interviews, but the parameters were so tonight that people were getting disqualified depending on that they identified as. Also heard nothing back from places I applied for over the past week.

Tonight's stream of Cyberpunk 2077 focused on Side Quests in the Pacifica portion of the map (South West corner) doing all gigs and available NCPD skirmishes, with a few side job tossed in that took us back to the badlands. Also finished the race with Claire and I think I may have screwed up with the dialog choices, but oh well. Did unlock the final apartment in the game.Also we passed the 50 hour mark.

We're going to continue Cyberpunk 2077 on Tuesday's stream at 9:30 PM Eastern over on twitch.tv/fredcasden with the big focus being on all the side quests in the corporate center area, again, we're focusing on the side quests and anything not related to the main story.

For the raid we went over to twitch.tv/misscammi316 who was playing Overwatch 2

Recorded parts 4 and 5 of my What if Vegeta were female series of videos for my YouTube channel, and managed to work in the Tree of Might into it as way to get the Princess of all Saiyans to go Super Saiyan. If I continue the series, I might skip the Garlic Jr part of the tale and go straight 

Got the Dragon Ball short story commission done, and I realized something when writing it, that since its set in the era that Future Trunks comes from, that means Chi-Chi would still be around as a characters.

Picked up another story commission for another Resident Evil tale, this one focusing on Chris Redfield while tying in plot points from Resident Evil Outbreak File 2.

I have a rough idea for the fifth chapter of my Persona series, just haven't had time to start it yet.

Picked up an timer to help prevent me time stuff when I attempt to cook considering how absent minded I can be. Also picked up a longer USB cable for the PS4 wireless controller to use that since I've been having stick-drift issues with the wired one.

And on that note have a good night!

 

 

Overwatch 2 and other notes

Hi everyone,

So, picture this if you win, I go to make some pasta to have some meals prepared for this week, and the pilot on the stove won't light up on its on, thankfully I had something to ignite it, but it's just one more problem among many.

Anyway, tonight's stream of Overwatch 2 was a lot of fun as per usual, even if the some random folks I got teamed with were doing their damnedest to feed the other team (Genji players I'm looking at you). Yes I had some bad matches, but when I look at the scoreboard and see we could've won if someone wasn't trying to be hero and focus on the task at hand, I waste no time in reporting players. 

Still things certainly picked up when PandaSweet joined in as I could always count on them to provide awesome support to give me more of a fighting chance since I was focused on playing Junker Queen to try and get a particular achievement. Other characters used were Moira, Tracer, Bastion, Mei, D.va, Baptiste and Brigitte. Also picked up two Plays of the Games, one as Junker Queen and the other as Moira.

For the raid we went over to twitch.tv/playoverwatch where of course Overwatch 2 was being played since that is the offical twitch channel

Our next stream is scheduled for 9:30 PM Eastern over on twitch.tv/fredcasden and we'll be getting back to Cyberpunk 2077, focusing on 

Did a fair bit of writing during the day, finishing the commission requests for a Resident Evil and WWE stories, and started one based on Dragon Ball. I really do appreciate everyone who has been paying for stories.

And that's all my notes for today, have a good night folks!
