Grandia HD Collection and other notes

We accomplished what we set out to do this evening which was to make it to Feena's hosue and then rescue her from the wedding to Pakon before setting out towards the Dom Ruins. We have slayed over 300 enemies so far, so getting 1000 enemies slain by the end of the game feels totally doable. We left off in the Dom ruins as it was getting late and Iv'e been waking up super early the past few days

Granida will return on Saturday's stream

Tomorrow's stream will feature God Eater Resurrection

For the raid we dropped in on moonlitsoju who was playing Persona 4 Golden

Work was alight, just solid.

Still waiting to see what the quarterly tax payments on my house is going to be....

Finished the Legend of Korra story commission and got started on the next one which is WWE realted. It's about 40% complete

Grandia HD Collection Achievements

  • Brutal Slayer: Defeat 300 monsters.
  • Professional On Board: Become adventurers with Feena.

Smite and other notes

We ended up winning 5 out of 7 matches in Smite tonight, and possibly should have won 6 if a little more caution was used. Big thanks to PandaSweet for being apart of the fun!

Next Wednesday will most likely feature Sea of Thieves

Tomorrow night we're playing Gradia!

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

Work was solid as we closed out an assignment

Still waiting to see what the property taxes will be on my home for the next year

Did some yard work, but because of that, didn't get as much writing done on the Legend of Korra commission. Will finish that tomorrow

We got a minor heatwave going on, tomorrow it might be near 100 degrees... 

I am seeing the problem with Stargate SG-1 Season 9 and it really comes down to how the character of Colonel Mitchell is shoehorned in as the leader when he should have been someone learning the ropes.

Grandia HD Collection and other notes

Tonight we covered two major story arcs in Grandia, one getting the steamer pass and second dealing with the Ghost Ship, which means we had the big moment were Justin tried to ditch Sue and meeting Feena. We left off after arriving in New Parm and meeting the goof that runs the Adventurer's Society. Next time we play Grandia it will be to get to Feena's house and basically rescue her from her forced wedding, which should be a lot of fun.

Also made sure to get the best possible gear because I remember the road to Feena's home being a pain to get through!

Grandia will return on Thursday

Tomorrow night we are playing Smite, holding off on Sea of Thieves this week

For the raid we dropped in on  samaell_alwahm who was playing Zenless Zone Zero

Work was okay-ish, good, but not great

Still waiting on the updated taxes due on my house to be posted, apparently there has been a delay in the city's tax office

Grandia HD Collection and other notes

Playing Grandia again is always awesome, and at the very least, being familiar with the game allows me to show off a little in terms of going after every enemy as I see them in order to try to level up quickly as well as master abilities, since in Grandia, the more you use an ability the faster it will be executed in later battles. Really love the dynamic with Justin and Sue.

We basically knocked out all the introduction and opening set up, went the Sult Ruins, met Liete and set the tone. I was feeling a little worn down so we ended the stream a bit early.

We shall continue Grandia tomorrow night with the next objective being to get the Steamer Pass

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

Work was alright, solid but not overly awesome

Watching Stargate SG-1 season 9 and I can't but laught at how the Ori are basically being presented as the Catholic Church

Finished the WWE commission in one shot today, next story is Kingdom Hearts related which might take two days to write depending on when I wake up

  • Besties: Sue has joined party.
  • Icarian Energy Item: Acquire the Spirit Stone.

Overwatch 2 and other notes

We had a fun night of Overwatch 2 this evening, with PandaSweet joining for the majority of the night. Ended up getting the second of Ramatra's character related achievements and we had a stretch where we won nine matches in a row. We also figured out exactly how is Blizzard turning a profit with that Reinhardt weapon skin, and it comes down to the price point for Prisms which are needed to unlock all the skin's features.

Also worked in a bit of singing with two redentions of Tongue Tied from Red Dwarf  as well as the full version of the Three Amigos Ballad

Overwatch 2 returns next Sunday

Tomorrow's stream will feature Grandia

For the raid we dropped in on intergalacticpants who was playing After Us

Had the worst kale greens I have ever had today... still can't get the taste out of my mouth

Finished the Pokemon commission and next up is a WWE related one, which is actually slated for August, so I am ahead of schedule

Overwatch 2 Achievements

  • Any Means: Eliminate 3 enemies in a single use of Ramattra's Annihilation.

RWBY: Grimm Eclipse and other notes

The big objective for tonight's stream was to do the entire campaign of RWBY Grimm Eclipse as Weiss Schnee and thanking we were able to do so, which was possible because we had Weiss at level 10 with a complete skill set already in place. The only time we had trouble was the very end with the Giant Scorpian and the various androids that keep spawning. Now the question will be when will I do runs as members of team JNPR.

We took a look at RWBY Arrowfell, which is a side-scrolling RPG where you can swap between all four members of the team. We knocked out the first chapter and I think we will add the game to the tour list, but we'll start it over when we finally dedicate time to it. Probably after we play Grandia (which we will start on Monday)

We messed around with RetroMania Wrestling completing the 10 Pounds of Gold as James Storm and getting an achievement as Stevie Richards. It appears the update from earlier this year added a bunch of achievements that are certainly do-able

Tomorrow's stream will feature Overwatch 2

For the raid we dropped in on samaell_alwahm who was playing Zenless Zone Zero 

Finished the My Hero Academia Story commission request, next up is a Pokemon commission story for the last one scheduled for July.

Did some yard work today, ended up going through three things of weed trimmer.... ugh

God Eater: Resurrection and other notes

So we saw some plot advancment in God Eater tonight, with Lidlow apparently getting killed and meeting Alisa who apparently has some serious mental issues. We did get up to the third tier level of missions =, so things are getting harder, as proven with the Urgent Mission that appeared which featured four mid-size enemies which exhausted all of my supplies. Think I might focus more on the story aspect of the game going forward

God Eater Resurrection will return next Friday night

Tomorrow's stream will featuring RWBY: Grimm Eclipse to do a full Weiss run

For the raid we dropped in on ZoneSama who was playing ToeJam & Earl

Lost internet service from 3:30 PM to around 7 PM, so lost work this evening. This also placed tonight's stream in doubt as well.

Finished the Arrow commission, and got started on the next one which is focused on My Hero Academia, which should be finished tomorrow during the day
