Gaming and Content Creation Today

H’okay so, ruling out the ice caps melting... Yeah so the world is seeming pretty wonky right now with the state of politics, but it hasn’t crashed and burned yet, so stay positive and move forward. Live life, don’t let life live you. Live and learn. Anyways, updates on me. So I’ve been working my new job for just over 2 weeks now. My first paycheque got sent to the wrong bank account, so some random person got my first paycheque. I’ve been super busy when it comes to trying to balance work, schoolwork, and sleep as backshift really screws with your internal clock and all your body wants to do is sleep. I’ve not had a chance to stream or record any videos in over a week now. I’m hoping that I’ll be able to pull my body out of this slump but working nights is really not helping anything. I mean it’s helping my wallet... If I actually got the money I was supposed to be paid. I was invitied to the STEEP early access open beta from Ubisoft and got to play it for about half an hour and liked it. Some of the controls aren’t exactly intuitive but it definitely has promise as a Snowboard/Wingsuit/Skiing/Paragliding Simulator. Aside from all this, I haven’t exactly had a lot of time to do or complete anything including keeping Twitter and this Tumblr updated. Life doesn’t have enough hours in the day to keep up with everything and still feel content with life haha.

Hey guys, welcome back

So these last few days for me have been hecktic. Had to record and render a video for this week last minute (really wanting to get more than one video out a week but it’s just difficult at the moment), being trained at my new job only to be told that I’m going to be flying solo after 2 shifts and working a part of the shift I’ve literally not been trained on yet. Money is getting super tight, I have my Extra Life 24 Hour Charity Live Stream on Saturday to which I had to book off 2 days at work that I had asked for when hired but weren’t given to me. My computer screwed up a Windows Update and crashed last week causing me to not be able to complete my weekly assignment for school as I was too busy with life to even get a chance to fix it. It’s just been a nuts passed little while.

On the plus, I ended up getting my hair dyed magenta for the Charity Stream to hopefully get some appeal in my thumbnail. Though my biggest concern is what should I be playing for the biggest turn out. If anyone would happen to have any suggestions that would be amazing. I’m trying to get to work on my current assignment for school though with work and sleep due to being on graveyard shift, it’s not making time management easy. I’ve pretty much had to give up streaming for the time being until I can get my body used to being a vampire again.

Hey there guys,

Back again with another decently large update.

So, since last update, I’ve finally came into a job! Took 11 months after the move but I’ll finally have some steady income. Biggest issue with the job though is that it is a backshift position so it’s going to extremely hinder my ability to stream and create content for YouTube for the time being until I can get settled in. Because of this, expect my planned future projects to be delayed until further notice. I’m trying to work out time for recording current projects but with the stress of the balancing act and working 6 days a week of backshift while also trying to make sure that life still happens outside of these days, I’m running out of free plan-able time haha.

I also managed to be able to play Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 over the passed few days and would like to recommend it to any DragonBall fan. The game is so much more polished when it comes to mechanics compared to the first game. My only real gripe is that achievements and some in game counters are broken and won’t unlock or progress, but that is something to likely be patched in the near future. I managed to complete the game in 30 hours (this is story, instructor lessons, advancement classes, and overworld quests) and still have Expert mission and Parallel Quest grinding to do while praying to RNJesus that I will get the items from them as I go.

Pokemon GO has been driving me nuts with not giving me regular PokeBalls at PokeStops which are the only thing that the Pokemon GO Plus accessory uses. For some reason when you’re out of PokeBalls it won’t use Great or Ultra Balls meaning it just annoyingly vibrates whenever there is a Pokemon nearby and when you tap it, you just get a notification stating that you have no PokeBalls left and then it vibrates again reminding you that that same Pokemon is still chilling there. Annoyance that I wish would be fixed given the price I paid for the device and I’m not expected to pay micro-transactions in order to buy PokeBalls to be able to use it.

Aside from all that, I’ve just been sleeping and began taking Vitamin D pills to compensate for the lack of sunlight I will be receiving becoming a backshift vampire. Let’s hope that I can just get everything ahead and finally bounce back with some money in a savings account rather than the previous “paycheque to paycheque” demeanor I’ve been living through for the passed 8 years!

Hey guys, just dropping by to blog another update. Not a whole lot happened between the last update and this one but to start, I’ve begun recording a couple new series for YouTube. They will hopefully be edited and premiere in the next 2-3 weeks as I’m trying to find the time aside from my schedule to get the recording and editing done.

I ended up getting a copy of the “Hello Neighbor” Pre-Alpha, and after around 3 hours of playing I managed to beat it. I also ended up accidentally breaking the game haha. The game is absolutely amazing and I recommend anyone for go and check it out at http://www.helloneighbor.com/

Overwatch also launched a new patch that buffed my bae D.Va and she’s absolutely amazing now. 25% boosted firing move speed, and an extra 100 HP... SO GOOD. In other Overwatch news, the Sombra ARG has progressed to AMomentInCrime fully loading to a message that stated Sombra gained control of Bastion E-54. After this everyone got confused and though Bastion’s RIP animation was blinking morse code. Came to find out that it was actually Bastion standing in front of a console in Dorado where he would chirp Morse code. This code led to https://lumerico.mx/. After digging around in the source tree, we were then led to https://lumerico.mx/TAKECONTROL and https://lumerico.mx/president-bypass. After this the login information for emails within Lumerico were found and decoded.

This is what was the end result.

I was lucky enough to be around in the Discord Channel of GameDetectives to watch all the work go down in real time. It was awesome and these guys work together amazingly.

As of right now, that was about the extent of my last couple days aside from the Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 Open Beta and Nintendo Switch. (Cannot wait for the Switch btw.)

So update from last update...

Toys R Us is giving me the work around and avoiding doing their jobs to avoid assiting me. Been calling since my missed interview last week only to be consistantly told that the hiring manager who I needed to talk to would be in “later”. After calling “later” I was told, “Next Wednesday”. Called “Next Wednesday” only to be told, “Yeah she’s off today and I don’t know when she’s in next.” I ask if they can check, they just promptly reply “No.”

Fine, I didn’t want to work for you anyways then.

Aside from that, content wise, I’ve been changing it up and streaming some Super Mario Maker where I brought in 8 new followers in 2 streams. This compared to the 28 I had gotten in the passed 3 months total. I’m wanting to stream more regularly but with job hunting, scheduled engagements, and school work, I’m finding it hard to put aside the side to dedicate to content creation. This is the only reason you’ll only be seeing one video a week from me for the foreseeable future.

I’ve been finding it hard to find time apart from these things as well as keeping up on the current gaming news including Overwatch’s Sombra codes being cracked to the point of finding out Monday what the next step is. Then there’s the Nintendo NX being unveiled in about 5 hours. Also Pokemon Sun and Moon’s Demo is out, it’s just been nuts with stuff happening and just not enough time to soak it all it. I’m feeling like a sponge being pulled out of the bottom of a pool and being sprayed with a firehose and expected to take it all.

Anyways, it’s currently 3AM and I’m in need of sleep. I was up all night working on school work and need shut eye.

What’s up peeps

I’m new to this whole Tumblr thing and even newer to blogging. I guess when blogging you just talk about the stuff you’re working on lately? I guess I can start with what I’m working on currently. So with my streaming, I’ve set up a Super Mario Maker stream setup that I’m very satisfied with. I’ve gained 3 followers in one session of about 2 hours which compared to my 300-ish hours streaming so far I only had 31 followers. (Gotta start somewhere to get somewhere) I’m hoping that streaming SMM will bring in more viewers as the ones I did bring in commented on my stream layout and how much they loved it and how I “should have a lot more followers”. Its comments like these that make me feel awesome and want to keep doing what I’m doing. As per YouTube, I’ve been trying to get caught up on school work and social stuff given there is a Hallowe’en event going on in Overwatch that my friends are all trying to get me to play. Because of this I’ve not really had time to record a new series like I’d hoped that I’d have been able to do by now. Hopefully in the near future as I have some awesome ideas that I can’t wait to get out in video form.

As for all this stuff I’ve been trying to balance my personal time with work time but it’s getting fairly locked up with all the things that I need to do constantly. I don’t have a lot of downtime aside from my sleeping time.
