Thank you for a great birthday!

Good afternoon everyone,

We did a 10 hour long stream yesterday, that start started at 12:30 PM and ran to about 10:45 PM, needless to say it was the longest stream of the year by far.

What did we do? Well it was totally dedicated to Final Fantasy XIV, very little progress was made on the Main Story Quest as I focused mostly on doing raids and trials the entire time.We started with the Eden raids, and I learned that the final four can't be accessed until I advance the Main Story to the end of patch 5.2. I'm not a fan of the 'fall of the ledge' gimmick some of these have, but the music is awesome.

Also learned that there is an entire side story arc that ties Final Fantasy XIV with NieR:Automata... which I wasn't expecting. Granted I was not expecting the Monster Hunter tie-in, but a full cross over that actually makes sense in the realm of both Final Fantasy XIV and NieR:Automata (from what I understand, since I didn't play it yet) is pretty incredible. This story arc basically serves as set up for the three Alliance Raids for the Shadowbringers content. Now I only managed to get through the first two Alliance Raids, which were tough as hell... I'm looking forward to seeing what the third one features.

Now I do have a number of thanks you to express as there were a lot of support for the channel during the stream Thank you to Qyndra for the raid, to FelKimChi for the 200 Birthday Bits, to FnDanteSavage and Mitenscirca for the re-subs, and Xx7drdeath7xx for the 10 gift subs! I greatly appreciate the support as ya'll made it a great day!

We sent the fun over to RoseMaryShorn who was playing playing either Pokemon Brillian Diamond or Shiny Pearl, couldn't really tell! Anyway they can be found over at twitch.tv/rosemaryshorn

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Body Uppercut Combo, Uppercut Combo #2 and Body Hook Combo for a duration of 28 minutes with an estimated calorie burn of 427 kcal

In term of birthday presents, got a new pair of slippers and a new sleeveless fleece vest to replace the one I've worn for nearly ten years. Thanks mom!

Tried to do some achievement grinding, and managed to bang out another one for Gears of War 4... which I think will be the last one I attempt as it relates to the horde mode, as much as I would like to get all five class types to level 10, it's way too much of a pain in the ass. Did see that the Co-Op vs AI matches work

Gears of War 4 Achievements

1. Know Your Role: Engineer: You used the Engineer's talents to build 10 improved fortifications
2. How's it Going to Work? Teamwork!: Won a Casual Co-op Versus match
3. Custom Made: Won a Match using a non-Starter Character and non-default Weapon Skin
4. Bot Killer: Killed 25 enemies in Co-op Versus matches

Paul Feig got his underwear in a twist when it was announced the travesty that was Ghostbusters 2016 will not be included in an upcoming box-set that will feature Ghostbusters, Ghostbuster II and Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Well lets see why that would be case: one Feig's Ghostbusters was badly written (and guess what he co-wrote it), it had terrible performances from nearly everyone involved, horrible special effects, and oh yeah, Feig and the majority of the leading cast went out of their way to insult the existing Ghostbusters fan base because every one had concerns when the first trailer hit YouTub, and people fucking hated what they saw... which was a mockery of the franchise in the form of a poorly conceived vehicle for Melissa McCarthy

For tonight's stream, I haven't made up my mind fully yet, but we'll be something to something this Christmas Eve!

So we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!

Well Happy Birthday To Me

Good afternoon everybody,

I have leveled up today, as its my birthday... I am now 39 Years Old. Most would say I'm just wasting my life... they are probably right, but hell, to each their own.

Anyway, last night's stream certainly had no plan as I didn't want to start up anything major or risk finishing a game, so we revisited some old favorites and checked out something I'm considering as a game to feature in 2022.

First up, was the return of The Grand Tour Game, which involved a delay in me doing any gaming during the stream because I had to wait for it to finish installing. It was a great revisit to just doing the first episode. Took me a while to remember how to do things correctly, as I did earned gold medals on every event back in 2020. But something funny happened when I was porting over last night's stream, apparently Amazon doesn't want any footage of the game to exist, and thus blocked the entire stream... so the segment of The Grand Tour Game will be edited out.

Next was Pac-Man Championship Edition 2, this was mostly just trying the score attack. Trying to earn an S Rank in this is not easy, as tracking the ghosts when we get the power pellet is a major weakness. Still managed to get a clutch 'A' Rank, so that's something.

We checked out Battletoads, which game out last year as an X-Box exclusive... and boy the all important aspect of online co-op not being a thing is a major downer. Still it is a game that looks great, is pretty easy to learn the basics of and has some nice humor to it. This is a game we will stream in 2022, which means the save file I've started will be deleted.Still we earned about eight achievements, so that was cool

Finally we jumped back into Jump Force, and I was hoping to get some S-Ranks on Hard Missions to get another achievement and get a step closer to 100% completion, but things did no shake out the way I was hoping in terms of finishing with Awaken Abilities. I did dive back into Jump Force after the stream and was able to knock out the two achievements I want to do... one part thanks to an 'character' event where using One Piece and Yu-gi-Oh character lead to a multiple of two to various mission rewards.

Big thanks as always to Kalenal for the raid during the stream. Last night they were featuring Final Fantasy XIV over on twitch.tv/kalenal!

Following the stream we sent the fun over to Sw33ts_gaming who was playing Super People over on twitch.tv/sw33ts_gaming. From what I can tell Super People is just your typical battle royal game.

Battletoads Achievements

1. Dodgebrawl Champion: Finished a fight without taking damage.
2. Brawling… With Style!: Earned your first 'S' Rank from an encounter.
3. Toads in a Hole: Escaped from the simulation bunker.
4. It Begins…: Got your first collectable.
5. Road Rash: Went in search of the evil Dark Queen.
6. Into the Third Dimension: Used your tongue to reach the background.
7. Battlemaniacs: Defeated 100 enemies.
8. Parks & Recreational Violence: Battled through a creepy amusement park.

Jump Force Achievements

1. Reliable Companions: Raised ten support characters above level 70 through battle.
2. A Master Warrior: Got S rank 10 or more times on Hard Free Missions.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Hook Combo #2, Front-Back Step Combo and Beginner Combo #1 for a duration of 28 minutes and an estimated calorie burn of 454 kcal.

I can safely say that the rest of this week will feature different games on Friday and Saturday, I might go back to Rise of the Tomb Raider to work on some achievements associated with that on Friday. Would be rather interesting if I go that route. This would mean both Fist of the North Star and Pokemon Shining Pearl being saved for next week.

Managed to finish a fan fic commission based around the WWE in 2010... and got paid for it promptly. Always nice when that happens. Might consider doing another one for the same client. .

For my birthday stream, I will be playing Final Fantasy XIV, and my focus will mostly be with the Eden side quests that were apart of Shadowbringers. We might do other trials and dungeons and stuff as well.

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

Guardians of the Galaxy Lived Up To Its Hype!

Good afternoon everybody,

It's not often I feel like a game was worth the hype, but Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy certainly lived up to the hype as being the best game of 2021.

Obviously we finished the game last night, with 50 of the games 58 achievement unlocked, so not bad on a blind playthrough. Ran into a few glitches as it relates to audio, in particular with Groot where his dialog would not be heard outside of some cut scenes. Also depending on how fast you are moving a lot of dialog can get cut off.

I think the final quarter of the game was really well done, in the long road to battle Fin Fang Foom certainly had a lot of anticipation for it... granted, the fight itself was similar to giant squid thing from earlier in the game... and after that battle, it really is the point of no return as Chapters 14 and 15 are seamless with the amount of action that takes place... and also seems to depend on how you dealt with Cosmo and the Worldmind, because it certainly seems as if I could've seen more combat situations.

The fake out with the credits rolling and then the revelation that we had one more 'battle' to deal with was well done. I said battle, because facing Magus wasn't really a boss battle, just dealing with the waves of enemies to get to a a Quick Time event, but this does give the ending a more cinematic feel to it, which is clearly what they were going for.

I

f you haven't played Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy yet, I highly recommend it, and it's very rare I would say something is a 'must play', but it truly is.

Now the remaining achievements for Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy I need to get involve collectables and combat feats, which will warrant another play through with the game's new game plus feature, so it appears some enemies don't appear late in the game.

Following the stream we sent the fun over to Helramma who was playing Kingdom Hearts over at twitch.tv/helramma!  

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy Achievements

1. Lava Launcher: Acquire the Plasma Element for Star-Lord's guns.
2. Altitude Adjustment: Defeat 20 enemies with Star-Lord's Eye of the Hurricane.
3. Foom's Doom: Defeat Fin Fang Foom.
4. Fully Loaded: Invest in all Special Abilities for all Companions.
5. Against All Odds: Complete Chapter 13.  
6. Herbal Remedy: Revive or Heal Companions 10 times with Groot's Gift of the Florae.
7. Into The Fire: Complete Chapter 14.
8. Faithless: Defeat Grand Unifier Raker.
9. Broken Promises: Complete Chapter 15.
10. Poetry Critic: Defeat The Magus.
11. The Magus: Complete Chapter 16.
12. Guardians of the Galaxy: Complete Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 Daily Workout featured Defensive Combo #2, Defensive Combo #1 and Double Combo #1 for a duration of 28 minutes and an estimated calorie burn of 434 kcal.

Finally knocked off the Ability Skill Master achievement in Jump Force, and I truly think that one is bugged, because I picked up way more than 30 ability skills doing the freaking missions associated with it, At this point I have 42 of the 50 achievements associated with this particular game.

Jump Force Achievements

1. Ability Skill Master: Obtained 30 or more Ability Skills.

Over with Final Fantasy XIV I was mostly focused on the Eden side-quest line, which introduced the character of Gaia and 'new' trials. There is a special place in hell for whoever came up with Eden's Gate: Sepulture, as that 'new version' of Titan had me baffled beyond reason to realize what the hell was happening. Again, if people are wondering why it's going to take me so long to get to Endwalker, it's finding things like this to tackle.

For tonight's stream I'm not 100% sure what I'm going to do, we could mess around with Jump Force of the horde mode of Gears of War 4, but I may just do something random for the hell of it. Still we will be streaming this evening, you know that's a fact!

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

The 2021 Gaming Tour Recap

Hey everyone,

It's the end of the year, and it's time to talk about everything that has gone on over at twitch.tv/fredcasden this year. This year we finished 72 games... now at the time of this post, I still had two games in progress, Pokemon Shining Pearl and Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise, those will be carried over into 2022.

In terms of channel growth, well we took a hit, this is mostly in-part to my getting back to working day shift hours,which is my personal preference. While the majority of my audience is in the United States and Canada, it is really apparent that I had a lot of folks watching from other countries in what would have been their early mornings / early afternoons. Kind of a rough thing to deal with when you have a channel as small as mine... but hey, it's why I stream seven nights a week, to try and grow. Hopefully momentum will improve in the coming year. 

Of course this year saw an uptick in playing with the community as we were joined by PandaSweet, Iceman, PowerThumbz and others for various games, and I hope to maybe expand on that in 2022.

This year also saw the 'retirement' of shorts for Star Trek Online, this is mostly due to the lack of content to keep me engaged. The Developers of Star Trek Online have actually removed more content than added to it over the past five years, and the choice of either staying in 'open combat areas' or mindlessly doing Task Force Operations forced my hand to regulate STO to being a 'special feature' for when new 'episodes' aka missions are added Of course what replaced Star Trek Online was Final Fantasy XIV, and it is a game I'm playing mostly off-stream, but have elected to feature once a week on stream with whatever progress I'm up to. Because of the 'subscribe' nature of FF14, I want to make sure I get my proverbial monies worth with, and I certainly have done that to this point. 

Looking ahead to 2022, well, there are certainly a lot of games I have that I want to try out, and see if I can beat them. While some games from this year will find its way onto the tour for next year, I will be striving to features things I have not played before, Dragon Ball Kakarot and Kingdom Hearts III being at the top of the list. I am looking forward to the next Saints Row game but that's not until the summer. I do want to feature more stuff from the PlayStation One, Two and Three Eras in particular with stuff that were exclusive to those consoles that didn't see a re-release later on.

So on that note, here's the full list of every game that we've beaten this year, I doubt we'll crack this total next year, but it'll be fun to try!.

If Gamora Had A Brother Would Their Name Would Be Sodam

Good afternoon everybody,

Yes, that is a Sodom and Gomorrah joke for the title of today's blog post, because of the simple fact their is a character called Gamora in the Marvel Universe... and that ties into me talking about last night's stream

Anyway, last night's stream featured Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, in which we covered chapters nine through twelve. This saw us paying the fine to the Nova Corp, seeing the the Worldmind is just like most authority figures in which a police force is used only for their benefit, dived into Drax's mind and ripped up a bunch of goons on Knowhere while saving a dog that was a cosmonaut. That pretty much covers a lot of it.

But here's the thing, last night saw an entire chapter basically devoted to Drax longing for his deceased family, and a heavy moment in regards to Gamora having to kill her sister Nebula. both of which were things of strong importance in the Telltale series. Hell Drax's entire scene with his daughter hits the same beats in both games. So it does raise a number of questions. Not to mention the choices basically shaping the world around Starlord certainly leaves an impression that sequel could follow up on those decisions.

Now at this point, I'm about three-fourths of the way through the game, I feel I should be able to finish it with tonight's stream, at least that is the plan. Granted this will depend on how heavy the combat gets... and if I can realize when there are narrow passages I can move through to advance the plot.

Also I looked at the collectables list... and yeah I've missed a lot, so hopefully this game has a New Game Plus mode, or a chapter select where I can back and grab the stuff I missed the first time around.

Following the stream, we sent the fun over to Sw33ts_gaming who was playing Aliens: Fireteam over at twitch.tv/sw33ts_gaming!

1. Galactic Frugality: Pay your Nova Corps fine.
2. Desperate Times: Complete Chapter 9.

5. Titanslayer: Survive the manifestations of Thanos.

Since this posting is being done in the afternoon, you can probably tell the end of year slowness at my day gig has crept in. Good thing I prepared a bit this round.

Off-stream, I messed around some more with Microsoft Solitaire Collection, managed to unlock an achievement, which was cool to boost the total that I've managed to do on my current streak.

Microsoft Solitaire Collection (UWP) Achievements

1. Eventgoer: Participated in your first Event

No progress was made with Final Fantasy XIV, as there was all-worlds maintenance being done, which I suspect was in regard to a lot of the heavy game traffic since the launch of Endwalker. So with that off the table for last night, I made some progress towards a couple of achievements in Jump Force and Gears of War 4, but nothing was unlocked in either game..

For tonight's stream, as indicated earlier, the plan is to finish Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, there are only four chapters left so it is all going to come down to how well I do in keeping the action movie forward.

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

The Wooltide Is Like The Yuletide

Good afternoon everyone,

A new week begins, as I'm just a few days away from my birthday on Thursday...

Last night's stream of Overwatch was a lot of fun as always, I even had five Plays of the Game, four of which as D.va and one as Orissa. Big thanks as always to PandaSweet for joining in on the fun, as we finished on a stretch of five wins and five losses over the last ten matches. 

In terms of who I used last night, D.va, Orissa, Wrecking Ball, Tracer, Ashe, Torbjorn, Brigitte and Moira, and most matches were spent in the Tank role more than anything else.

 

Of course, I figured out how to turn off the HUD in Overwatch, which means we'll have some better screenshots for the blog in some situation. I just have to remember to turn the HUD back on during a match, otherwise that would be bad for me.

With Overwatch being on sale because of the holiday, I was not surprised to see an influx of 'supposed' new players to the game... but of course, seeing some pull off stuff I've only seen people do who have played the games for hundreds of hours do just means that 'smurfs' will be a major pain in the ass to deal with for the next few weeks.

Following the stream we sent the fun over to Joliet4 who was playing Borderland 2 over at twitch.tv/joliet4!

Watched 'Hang 'Em High' starring Clint Eastwood last night, such a good movie, that in fairness could've ended 20 minutes earlier than it did... if Eastwood wasn't playing the hero who was getting revenge. 

Tackled more Horde mode stuff with Gears of War 4, I never want to play as a 'Heavy' type again, at least the 'Scout' was fun in terms of running around grabbing stuff.

Gears of War 4 Achievements

1. Level 50: Reached level 50
2. Call a Dr. If Lasting More than 4 Teammates: Resurrected 4 teammates using the Fabricator
3. Stop Hitting Yourself: Killed a Guardian with a Guardian weapon
4. Know Your Role: Heavy: You kept the damage coming with reloaded weapons from Weapons Lockers as a Heavy

My off-stream Final Fantasy XIV adventures continued with a couple of Main Story Quests done, as well as finding some more featured side quests that lead to dungeons... and what is apparently a series of raid similar to the Alexander raids I dealt with a while back, featuring Eden... that have Final Fantasy VIII battle music! Since that is my all time favorite game of the franchise, I had a big grin on my face. I have a feeling these Eden raids need to be done before starting Endwalker for things to make sense, so these will be my priority... just know the queue times are probably going to be long.

For tonight's stream, we shall be getting back to Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, near as I can tell we're exactly half-way into it, so it will be interesting to see how far we get into the second half.

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

We Brought The Shadow

Good afternoon everyone,

Well last night's stream had an aborted ending, thanks to a random power outage that lasted a few minutes... sorry to those who were watching!

Anyway, the stream itself featured Final Fantasy XIV, namely the final main story quest of the 5.0 Shadowbringers expansion, which was the quest called Shadowbringers. It mostly consisted of a dungeon and a trial, Amaurot and The Dying Gasp. Both were rather epic in terms of scale and bringing an epic conclusion to the story arc.Of course I would have more trouble with the Dungeon than with the Trial, but hey, it's all good in my opinion as we saw an epic ending... and the set up for what comes next.

Of course the big reveal that we're going to go to the Moon for Endwalker was obvious, and there is the matter of getting the Scions home from the World of the First, which basically will cover the mini expansions before the new stuff came out this month.

But I didn't really advance the story beyond that, since I have a feeling there is going to be a lot of cut scenes and test, so we knocked out one of the weekly journals, soloing a few trials on Extreme, doing two huge alliance raids and running a quick dungeon.

Also in regards to the log-in queue, I didn't start logging into Final Fantasy XIV till about 10 minutes before stream, and it was about 380 people waiting, so it wasn't as bad as it was last week.

Following the stream we sent the fun over to Kalenal who was also playing Final Fantasy XIV over at twitch.tv/kalenal!

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Hip Shape Focus Combo, Straight Combo #2 and Sway Back Combo for a duration of 31 minutes and an estimated calorie burn of 466 kcal.

Played some Jump Force yesterday afternoon, and knocked off another achievement, 'Aim For the Top', and once I realized how I could easily exploit the A.I. with beam attacks, it was a cake walk. The next one I want to target is the achievement for getting 10 Support characters to level 70.... that's going to be bit tougher, as there isn't much that gives shared XP in the free missions, and I'm running out of Key missions to do.

Jump Force Achievements

1. Aim for the Top: Raised an avatar above level 70 through battle.

I also messed around with the Horde mode with Gears of War 4 into the early hours of this morning and actually was able to complete an entire 50 stage run! Did it as a Scout which amazed me. I can safely say that game mode will teach bladder control!

Gears of War 4 Achievements

1. Classy Move: Reached level 10 in one Horde class
2. Tea. Earl Grey. Hot.: Upgraded Fabricator to maximum level
3. Bilford Bogin!: Completed 50 consecutive waves of Horde in a squad
4. Craftsman: Crafted a card
5. Scrap Happy: Destroyed a card
6. New Horizons: Completed 50 consecutive waves of Horde in a squad on any Post Launch map
7. Mine!: You collected 10 Cards from Series 3!
8. Know Your Role: Scout: You used the Scout's talents to maximize your power gain for your team.

It's a new week, which means let's look back at my favorite moments from the past one! This week we played Overwatch, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, Gears of War 4, Jump Force, First of the North Star: Lost Paradise, Pokemon Shining Pearl and Final Fantasy XIV!

For tonight's stream we will be playing Overwatch, and I will be making sure I get the weekly challenge skin for Tracer!

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