Borderlands 2 and other notes

We opened tonight's stream by wrapping up the last of the Commander Lilith stuff which of course sets up the events for Borderlands 3...  then went back to the main story and proceeded to nearly walk through the big moments of reaching Angel, Jack killing Roland and kidnapping Lilith. 

So I'm pretty sure, depending on how thorough I want to be we can finish the main game next week at some point! Again totally depends on how thorough I want to be.

Anyway, Borderlands 2 will return on Monday night!

Tomorrow night we're back to playing Ghost of Tsushima.

For the raid we dropped in on abenonymous who was playing God of War Ragnarok

Work was solid and very productive, gives me confidence my paycheck next week is going to better than expected

Finally reached the point of the Star Wars commission story that is in progress where I can see it's 50% done... and it's all dialog. But it's paid by the word, so it's all good.

Smite and other notes

Iceman was not available so instead we featured Smite, and shockingly we won 5 matches... while losing 5 matches, although one of those losses was due to being stuck with a player who refused to play. We were joined by Strike for a couple of games.

Picked up the discounted Battle Pass to make sure I go that Athena skin, as well as gnabbed all the RWBY related skins to make sure I didn't miss out on them a second time.

Gods used tonight were Athena, Cupid, Chang'e, Terra, Thanatos, Freya and Amaterasu, the last four having the skins for Yang, Ruby, Weiss and Blake. 

I think when Smite 2 launches, we'll dedicate a few Saturdays to it since by then we'll be pretty far into Persona 4 Golden

Tomorrow night we're back to Borderlands 2

For the raid we dropped in on ZoneSama for the weekly Zone-Out streams of retro TV

Work was solid, if unspectacular, not as productive as the previous nights

Picked up the Porsche bundle in Overwatch 2 since I already had the coins in my account

Finished the Back to the Future story and started work on a Star Wars commission which might take me until Friday to finish given how much dialog I have to write!

Borderlands 2 and other notes

So tonight we dived into the Commander Lilith & The Fight for Sanctuary and I was shocked that it is a continuation of what I've seen in Tales from the Borderlands with Vaughn being a major character, and how this is setting up and acting as a bridge to Borderlands 3.

What I really like is that it's more scale down than the Assault of Dungeon Keep, with not to many side quests to get bogged down in. According to the mission flow chart, I've covered half of its content. So when we continue it, it should pretty much be a straight shot to wrapping it up... then doubling back to finish the main campaign.

And why I choose to do the DLC? Mostly because all the achievements are 'diamond' rare, so I figure I can get a few bragging rights! 

Borderlands 2 will return on Thursday

For tonight's raid we dropped in on MissCammi316 who was playing Smite

Speaking of Smite, we are going to dedicate a night to it next week.

Grabbed the Mercedes bundle for Overwatch 2 since I had the extra coins 

Square-Enix admitting that taking the exclusive contract from Sony has hurt them in a big way and hopefully this means the end of console exclusivity.

Work was solid, loved the first half, but hated the second half

Nearly finished the Back to the Future Commission story, it's about 75% complete, going to work on it before bed.

Borderlands 2:  Commander Lilith & the Fight for Sanctuary Achievements

• Anyway, Here's "Firewall": Activated the Backburner's firewall.
• Chocolate Chip Confirmed: Allowed Tiny Tina to arm the moonshot cannon.

Borderlands 2 and other notes

We finished the Tiny Tina Assault on Dragon's Keep DLC and I rather like it as an epilogue to the main story of Borderlands 2 with how it is Tina coping with the deaths of Roland and Bloodwing. Plus we got to see Buttstallion... Handsome Jack's infamous horse.

We were joined by a few people who joined in randomly, one to give me 'better gear' and another to complete the main story of the DLC. Big thanks to them for being apart 

Now the question is do I go ahead to do the main story, do I do the head hunter stuff or do I do the Commander Lilith stuff. I think I'll have check the achievements list as we're already 45 hours in

We will be playing Borderlands 2 tomorrow

For the raid we dropped in on samaell_alwahm who was playing 7 Days to Die

Work was solid tonight even if we had to switch assignments

Got a good start on the Back to the Future commission request, finishing one scene and next will be a second, much longer scene

Borderlands 2 Achievements

• t's Like That One Video: Showed thine worst enemy, the abomination known as "The Darkness," who is the nerdiest of them all
• Shorty, You So Best: Completed thy quest by rescuing yonder queen

Overwatch 2 and other notes

Tonight's stream was dedicated to mostly playing as Dva to give a good idea of how I tend to literally play her as a tank with some dive-bomb attempts when I see an opening.Did get in several matches as Brigitte, Zarya and a few other characters as well.

Of course there were some very suspect people both terms of who we played with and against that very much had me scratching my head.

Still, mostly playing as Dva had me thinking I could go on a string of dedicating nights to playing as specific characters. Just a thought.

Big thanks to PandaSweet for being apart of the fun

Overwatch 2 will return next Sunday

Tomorrow night we're back to Borderlands 2 to continue the Tiny Tina DLC content.

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

Did groceries today, had to spend more than I was planning  to because I needed contractor bags.

Got a good deal of writing done on a WWE commission, will be working on that after this is posted

Also will record this week's Daria Reactions before bed. 

Persona 4 Golden

Tonight we completed the Rescue Yukiko arc of Persona 4 and realized two things, one being the enemies due respond, two it's going to be real easy to lure about the Reaper and three save-scumming (basically saving and reloading) is very much encouraged (and we did that ONCE just to get an achievement) 

Still one thing I really picked up on is that earning XP is going to be a lot easier in Persona 4 Golden than when compared to Persona 5 and Persona 3, as we're already in the low 20s with the initial crew. 

That said, if each 'dungeon' is 8 to 12 floors, we should be able to pace things out in order to get advancing things at a fair pace. Of course this is going to depend on how complex the floor maps get. Not to mention how much back tracking will be required because I suspect revisiting different dungeons is going to be tied to various side questss.

Persona 4 Golden will return next Saturday

Tomorrow's stream will feature Overwatch 2

For the raid we dropped in on intergalacticpants who was playing Baldur's Gate 3 

Got the Arrow commission request finished real early in the morning and started work on the next fic which is WWE related, which will be on my agenda for Sunday. If I keep it simple and light, I should be able to knock it out in short order.

I say that because I couldn't sleep at all last night and when I did fall asleep it was like 6 AM and I woke up at 3 PM.

Persona 4 Golden Achievements

• A Favor for Marie: Register a Skill Card.
• Persona Shopper: Buy a Persona from the Compendium.
• Lucky Me!: Win a prize from the vending machine.
• Seize the Moment: Buy a special croquette from Sozai Daigaku.
• It's Working Today: Buy an item from the Capsule Machine.
• Grasping at Greed: Defeat a Golden Hand.
• Displaying Adaptability: Switch Personas 5 times in 1 battle.
• A Prince Appears: Rescue Yukiko Amagi.

Ghost of Tsushima and other notes

Tonight's stream saw us finding the last 'quick shot' skill which allows for Jim to have a flaming sword, plus closed in on completing Bamboo Strikes and finding various shrines and collectables. 

Now at this point there are two trophies I'm probably not going to get, finding hidden shrines that apparently are not part of the standard set as well as defeating an enemy with fall damage

Ghost of Tsushima will return next Friday as we continue  to explore as much of the third area as possible without advancing the plot.

Tomorrow's stream will see us resuming Persona 4 Golden

For the raid tonight we dropped in on ZoneSama who was playing Splatoon 3

Work was a slog, but it was a recruit assignment as we were looking for people who fit the parameters of a study.

About 60% complete of the commission story based on Arrow, could easily finish it early tomorrow before starting on the next one

Ghost of Tsushima (PS4) Trophies

• Mass Eviction: Liberate 7 occupied areas in Kamiagata.
• Teller of Tales: Complete all of the Mythic Tales.
