Skullgirls 2nd Encore and other notes

Tonight's stream featured Skullgirls 2nd Encore, we took a brief look at the tutorial for the basic controls then did a standard arcade ladder run with Ms. Fortune and Peacock before focusing on the story mode, doing runs as Filia, Cerebella, Parasol and Fukua, the last of which involved fighting Filia on apparently the hardest difficulty in the game. Now I didn't adjust the difficulty at all, so I'm rather pleased that I was able to complete Fukua story mode, as only 5% of people who played Skullgirls 2nd Encore on Xbox consoles have done that!

Tomorrow night's stream is scheduled to feature Sea of Thieves but Iceman may not be able to join us, if he can't we might do another night of Skullgirls. Or maybe an extra night of Overwatch.

For the raid we dropped in on ay0tony who was playing Skullgirls and League of Legends

Skullgirls 2nd Encore Achievements

  • A Normal Life: "Painwheel?" Must be foreign.
  • Training the Next Generation: One sister's safety dooms another.
  • And It's All Thanks to You: Poor Ms. Fortune.
  • Me and My Shadows: Tag-team your opponent all alone.
  • April Fact's Day: The joke is that she's not a joke. 

We did have work today, and got a few interviews done, a couple took way longer than expected because of trying to get respondents to answer the questions.

Now the commission requests I had slated to for today got thrown out as the I just couldn't write what was asked, which hurts, because that's money I'm not earning... but it's onward to the next one, and thanfully it is a commission request with a logical story.

I was not thrilled with having to shovel snow this morning, just glad it was only a couple of inches.

And now I'm off to bed!

South Park: The Stick of Truth and other notes

Tonight we wrapped up South Park The Stick of Truth and did so by getting all four achievements associated with defeating Princess Kenny, the games final boss. Needless to say it was a solid run tonight, everything from start to finish, and rather efficient. Of course a second play through would be required due missing on Chinpokemon and not getting all the possible 'friends', along with costumes and weapons, but we'll consider that for down the road.

Tuesday night we're going to mess around with Skullgirls 2nd Encore, since it's been awhile since we've featured a fighting game.. 

Thursday night we'll start up South Park: The Fractured But Whole, though I'm considering waiting till Saturday for that.

For the raid we went over to intergalacticpants who was playing God of War: Ragnarok

South Park: The Stick of Truth Achievements

  • Pulling Mud: In three separate battles, you've taken a shit in your pants
  • Inside Joke: While inside Mr. Slave, you summoned Mr. Slave
  • Two Girls, One Stick: You defeated Princess Kenny in your girl makeover disguise
  • Face Hoff: You defeated Princess Kenny while looking like David Hasselhoff
  • Outpatient: You defeated Princess Kenny while living with Dire AIDS
  • Stick Savior: You defeated Princess Kenny and recovered the Stick of Truth
  • Dog Whistle: You've farted on a dog while in gnome form 

We had work today, only got two interviews, but hey we had work and that's a good thing!

It's snowing and I'm dreading having to shovel, though I don't have to step out and I'm not expecting any deliveries.

Finished the NFL related commission and started work on a Spider-Man related commission request which is probably going to go over like a fart in church with how I'm not really feeling the combination of characters I have to use.

Anyway, time for bed!

Overwatch 2 and other notes

Tonight's stream of Overwatch 2 was interesting with the 'Quicker Play' gimmick and one thing I can say about that gimmick is that it exposes everyone who doesn't know how to fight on the objective & payload. Seriously, people who try to hang back and build their ultimates from a distance end up losing because of how fast things were adjusted. Granted no one will learn from it, but I can say we won more than we lost by a wide margin. Big thanks to PandaSweet for being apart of the action.

Tomorrow night we look to finish South Park The Stick of Truth. We could go straight forward to finishing it or try and find a few extra side quests.

 For the raid we went over to the channel for Mystery Science Theater 3000 

Finished the Dragon Ball story commission this morning, and it was a struggle to knock out, and started work on an NFL related commission, which is about 30% finished based on the outline I was given. I will be working on it tomorrow during the day.

Taking time to sit down and watch episodes of Red Dwarf when I have lunch certain brightens the day a bit.

Good night folks!

South Park The Stick Of Truth and other notes

Tonight's stream of South Park  The Stick Of  Truth saw a lot of things done in terms of side quests and achievements as we progressed the story to where the girls are recruited to help out in the final epic battle of the game. Near as I can tell just about every side quest is done, there might be a couple of ones that open up late game, but I think it's basically a straight run to wrap up the main story.

Anyway, South Park The Stick of Truth Returns on Monday's stream.

Sunday night's stream will feature Overwatch

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

 Added a Funko Pop of Fonzie from Happy Days to the wall

The commission request based on Dragon Ball is proving to be a pain in the ass because it's way too many characters for a budget fic. Going to get it somewhere over 2000 words and send it off as one of the worst fics I've written. I'll be working on it tomorrow to get it out of the way.

Waiting for a few bills to come in to get those paid off, granted I know what the amounts will be, just like having the paper record in some cases.

And on that note good night!

Catherine: Full Body and other notes

Tonight's stream of Catherine Full Body ran five hours because I got hung up on a couple of puzzles and thought thought I was on the path for one of Rin's endings, but turns out I did something wrong along the way. Still we cleared the seventh night so next time we play the game we should be able to finish it with possibly getting a good or bad ending for Catherine.

Tomorrow night we're back to South Park The Stick Of Truth, with one thing on the agenda being going back to the sewers to find the last homeless battle

For the raid we dropped in on zophisthe4th who was also playing Catherine Full Body

Catherine: Full Body Trophies

  • Slippin' Slidin': Slide across five or more ice blocks, not including the one you start on. (Golden Playhouse only)
  • The Cheeky Lamb: Peek into the confessional from outside.

  • On to the Next: Survive a horrifying nightmare.
  • No Time to be Dead: Select Retry after a Game Over. (Golden Playhouse only)

Knocked out the massive Fairy Tail related commission and picked up $50 for it, and used some of that to get dinner from Blowin' Smoque. 

Next commission story on the agenda is Dragon Ball related, that I'll use some creative back and forth to get it done considering I'm not to keen on the requested amount of characters to involve.

Need to remember to get milk... though I can probably just go ahead and have bagels and eggs this week.

Good night folks!

South Park The Stick Of Truth And Other Notes

Tonight's stream had a bit of an hour late start due to the power being knocked out. Once we were able to get started we knocked out various side quests and things in South Park The Stick of Truth such as finding the last of the hide and seekers, placing the trackers for Al Gore, crashing the UFO and general tomfoolery. We'll resume South Park The Stick of Truth on Saturday's stream

Friday's stream will feature Catherine Full Body

Currently working on a commission request based on the anime Fairy Tail, the closer I can get it to 6000 words the better, currently its at 3100 words, so another day of writing should get it there, even if I add in various bits to pad it out.

Good night folks!

Sea of Thieves and other notes

Tonight's stream of Sea of Thieves was a blast as Iceman and Striker were apart of the chaos as we engaged in sea battles with A.I. controlled ships, in addition to starting the Pirates of the Caribbean story content which featured a twenty minute long fight against the Flying Dutchman. All together it was a blast to play!

Sea of Thieves will return next Wednesday. 

Tomorrow night I'm back to South Park The Stick of Truth as we begin the second day of the game.

For the raid we dropped in on maximilian_dood during their stream of Tekken 5

Sea of Thieves Achievements

  • A Pirate's Life: You completed 'A Pirate's Life'.
  • Five a Day: You've eaten at least one piece of every kind of fruit.
  • Well Done!: You burned a piece of food. 

Knocked out two stories today, one a commission request focused on Mass Effect, and the other was a SubscribeStar commission tier subscription request involving Superman.

Now the next commission request is based on the anime / manga Fairy Tail, which I know nothing about, but was requested to be written as an alternate universe story, so I pretty much can establish the personalities.

I have gotten into the routine of going up to the living room to watch Red Dwarf as I make lunch / dinner. Something minor, but it means I'm making use of the Amazon Fire Stick that I moved upstairs.

Good night!
