Marvel's Midnight Suns and other notes

Tonight's stream started around 6:30 PM Eastern and ran till about 1 AM, taking full advantage of the holiday. We did get a lot done, in terms of actually moving the story forward and doing stuff in and around the abbey. We recruited Captain America and Storm, and saw that Bruce Banner and Scarlet Witch are fallen... so now its a question of how do we save them.

I do wish there was a 'mission list' of sorts to indicate how and when the story progresses. Not to mention having an idea of when things respawn around the abbey, because there is an achievement tied to collecting 10 of every type of plants.

Anyway, Marvel Midnight Suns will return on Saturday's stream.

Tomorrow's stream will feature J-Stars Victory Vs... and we may start early, that depends on how when I finish some writing. (More on that below)

No work because of the July 4th Holiday

Idiot using fireworks in and around my neighborhood should be arrested because it sounds as if guns are being fired 

Got a good portion of the Legend of Korra story commission written, but it's going to be a short one given the notes I was presented.

Nabbed a meal from the 45th Street Pub

Marvel's Midnight Suns Achievements

  • Speed Kills: KO'd a villain with a Quick ability.
  • Unrequited Love: Pet Ebony on 4 different days.
  • Needful Things: Used 25 combat items.

Sea of Thieves Achievements

Iceman, Striker and I knocked out the last chunk of the Monkey Island Tall Tales, and it was a satsifying conclusion, even if roaming the catacombs was a bit annoying. Next time out, we'll be able to focus on just roaming around and finding treasures and stuff.

Sea of Thieves is slated for next Wednesday's stream.

Tomorrow night we're playing Marvel's Midnight Suns and chances are we'll start early

For the raid we dropped in on ZoneSama for their Zone-Out stream.

I am off from work until at least Monday thanks to the quirky nature of the July 4th Holiday... at least I should get a lot of writing done.

Speaking of which, got the Dragon Ball commission done, next up on the agenda is a Legend of Korra story.

I've been unable to get the Low-V version of MeTV, which meant I've been unable to watch any of its subchannels... but the trade off has been getting every other UHF channel in the area.

Sea of Thieves Achievements

  • The Lair of LeChuck: You completed The Lair of LeChuck.

Marvel's Midnight Suns and other notes

We got a fair bit done in Marvel's Midnight Suns, unlocking various achievements and actually forced to advance the plot a bit because of how the DLC is locked behind certain things being done and areas being available. But we did do the introduction mission for Morbius, so we got the Living Vampire on the crew now.

Marvel's Midnight Suns will return on Thursday

Tomorrow night we're either playing Smite or Sea of Thieves

For the raid we dropped in on SweetLindir who was playing Overwatch 2

Work got cancelled today, and I believe its tied to the July 4th Holiday... its one of those weeks of the year that always screws me over 

Wrote  large chunk of a Dragon Ball commission, I really should put a cap on how many characters can be included for the SubscribeStar Commission tier.

Got a good night's sleep last last night after being up for 36 hours. Will be going to be bed in about 1/2 an hour once all the usual post stream stuff is done!

Marvel's Midnight Suns Achievements

  • Quantity is Quality: Used 8 hero abilities in a single turn.
  • Trading Up: Redrawn 75 cards.
  • We Have Ways: Interrogated 5 enemies.

Marvel's Midnight Suns and other notes

Tonight's stream saw a big focus on completing the Deadpool DLC story, and I can see that it's going to tie to the other DLC characters which is going to be awesome.  We banged out several grind related achievements as well, so all and all a productive night of gaming.

Midnight Suns will be featured tomorrow night as I think we'll go into the next DLC story arc, which is Morbius... I think

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

I hate UPS, they always deliver late... but I got a new fan that has a timer so I can rotate which fans are on at any given time.

Work was bleh... we closed out an assignment and got the final hour off... so that raises questions about if we got work coming in... sigh...

Knocked out the WWE Commission, next up is a Dragon Ball one

Tired two different Phillips OTA antenna's both were actually worst than the one I picked up as a curiosity... how is that even possible?! 

I've been up since 1 PM on Sunday... I need to sleep...

Marvel's Midnight Suns Achievements

  • The Best Girl: Petted Charlie 15 days in a row.
  • Back in Time for Lunch: Completed a general mission in 2 turns or less.
  • Pinball Wizard: KO'd multiple enemies with a single Knockback 25 times.

Overwatch 2 and other notes

Tonight's stream started two hours late because of the thunderstorms that rolled through, so I ended up finishing Becky Lynch's book which I started reading months ago when I got it. 

Once we got started, we ended up having a decent night outside of several idiots that we had the misfortune of teaming with. Big thanks to PandaSweet for being apart of the fun! Nearly finished the Battlepass for Season 11, will knock it out over the course of the week when doing dailies and working on next week's challenges.

Overwatch 2 will return next Sunday night!

Tomorrow night we are playing Marvel's  Midnight Suns, and will work on the Deadpool related story and things. 

For the raid we dropped in on samaell_alwahm who was playing Wuthering Waves 

Started work on the next commission story which is WWE related, should be able to knock it out between tonight and tomorrow

Did part of my laundry, I really need to put the heavier t-shirts away until the winter time

Will have my first movie reaction video for my YouTube channel posted in a couple of weeks on  July 18, and it will be of Zorro the Gay Blade

I need to find a decent cheap video editor that is similar to windows movie maker.

Marvel's Midnight Sun and other notes

With a full five hours, we did a fair bit of abbey stuff and actual missions in Midnight Suns, grinding towards various achievements, and progressing various relationships. The biggest thing was doing the first of the DLC content in recruiting Deadpool, who has a nice introduction to the cast, with a number of breaking the fourth wall references.

I think we'll keep the focus on the DLC and general missions and holding off on advancing the main story as much as possible. We shall see based on how things are story gated.

Midnight Suns will return on Monday's stream

Sunday's stream will feature Overwatch with a possibility of Smite

For the raid we dropped in on intergalacticpants who was playing Cyberpunk 2077

Unblocked a window in my office to let natural daylight pour in, but I need to find a way to cover it at night, to keep folks from peering in.

Finished the WWE commission I had scheduled for today, and next up is the first of stories slated for July... which is also WWE related... ugh.

Marvel's Midnight Suns Achievements

  • Hemophobic: Complete a Vampyre mission without any hero gaining Bleed from a Vampyre Bite.
  • Dream Team: KO'd a villain with a Hero Combo.
  • With a Box of Scraps: Crafted a hero ability card in the Forge.
  • The Keymaster: Opened 25 Arcane Chests.
  • You Absolute Legend: Completed a Midnight Sun Challenge in the Forge.

J-STARS Victory VS+ and other notes

Tonight's stream of J-Stars Victory Vs was partially grind as we went after the Mysterious Voice ships and begin going after the Dark Phanton ships (a total of 30 need to be taken out). We got Luffy closer to level 30, which we'll easily do next week, and we unlocked every character, as well as all of the Bronze level cards and completed 30 side quests.

We did advance the plot a fair bit, recruiting many support characters and got access to the Tundra landmass, which is where we'll open things up to push towards finishing the first campaign

Thank to you TelochFIN for the raid following their own stream of Hockey Manager 10

J-Stars Victory Vs will return next Friday night!

Tomorrow night we're playing Marvel's Midnight Suns

For the raid we dropped in on zonesama who was doing a charity stream 

Work started off good tonight but then died as the night went along

Finished the WWE related commission and I got one more to be perfectly caught up on story requests... it is also WWE related but it's supposed to be a short one. 

Also, it dropped below 70 tonight... so I'm stoked about given my fans a break!
