Episode 2 is 99% complete! I just need to do a little polishing to a couple areas, and then I can add the second video to the can. Afterwards, I’ll be able to give Episode 3 my attention, unlike Valve I will release an Episode 3! Though to be fair if they released an Episode 3 it would totally blow me out of the water.
Spent the day getting things in order for tomorrow, cleaning up a bit, and vibing to some music.
All the while finishing up some animation on the last bit of the second video. I should be able to start piecing the ending together tomorrow in full, maybe even export it in the process. Then I can start on the third and final Amnesia video! Looking forward to going through the final part and seeing what parts withstood the test of time. After all, this stuff was recorded a couple of years ago. Some things age like a fine wine, and others age like a pork chop from the 1980’s.
I returned to the world of Shadow Warrior 2 today to grind away at my remaining sidequests, and I STILL have a few more to grind through before continuing the main storyline. Most of the bounties I completed tonight were quite repetitive, but they did make me stronger in the money/skills department. I can’t complain too much, since Skyrim’s bounty hunting in other games usually consists of “find NPC, kill NPC, receive Bacon.” or something along those lines. All in all I did have a good time sipping tea and slaying demons and Yakuza.
Next time I return, there will only be four more bounties for me to collect. Then I can continue with the main plot. I’d like to hopefully finish the game sometime this year, having put it off like so many others.
I plopped down on the couch this evening and enjoyed a little bit of Crash Bandicoot, got a couple achievements! Then a bit later I played Cloudpunk at my desk, and continued getting achievements… huzzah. For some reason I was in a Futuristic Dystopian Delivery Girl kind of mood tonight, and I love the dialogue! I met a couple of android gang members who go around performing typical gang member activities… such as building playgrounds for children. Not long after I had to give a Karen and her Android husband a ride along with the package they wanted to send. Oh, and I had a cup of coffee. :v
I’m already mentally planning my weekend. It’ll probably be a mix of leisure and accomplishment… or accomplishing leisure? I can at least promise myself a special breakfast… I’m thinking Chinese. It’ll give me an excuse to make some sauces that I haven’t made in what feels like an eternity and a half. I can make it a day where I migrate between the kitchen and gaming in the living room if I have the place to myself.
I need a little zen over the weekend to make up for a week of donkey dicks.
Too tired to post anything tonight. Work has been physically and mentally taxing, the world kinda sucks right now, and if I had more time and energy I would write a more meaningful post. The only things that are keeping me sane are my friends and family — plus my hobbies… and a new office chair. Yeah, that’s actually a positive.
I’ve been thinking of taking some time off. I had one of those dreams the other night where I thought I was late for work, and usually that means I need to give myself a break. As opposed to working with 3D and games, then proceeding to dream about those instead.
I recently found out, and finished watching the new season of Kids In The Hall! Just finished watching the final episode, and it all felt like a continuation from where they left off.. with possibly a little legal THC laced in the mix. It was fun to watch
Now I’m starting up their “Death Comes To Town” series. That one has been awhile, and surprisingly I’ve never heard of it before, kinda surprising no one ever really said anything about this. Love the portrayal of the Grim Reaper… he looks like someone you’d find down south.
I have nothing to say tonight — I just really like this shirt. I got it for Christmas and it’s very comfortable.
Today I made my last day of freedom a bit of a home spa day. My best friend since childhood sent me a nice care package containing spa items for all of the chill. I tried a lavender bar of soap, and a deep cleaning rose gel mask, and now I know I’ll be able to put my first foot flowered tomorrow…. pshewwwww.
There’s still quite a lot of other stuff to try, like scrubs and a couple other items, but those will have to wait. I have some watermelon scrub to finish up first. There was a giant sale on a bunch of watermelon bath stuff and I made fucking bank on it.
I think I’m finally getting into spring thanks to the slightly better weather. I had a good rest, made some strawberry oatmeal and did some digital housekeeping. In this case organizing my files, deleting temp files and cache, and getting sucked into Okami. I covered a lot of ground, learned to swim in lava, discovered the Northern Ryoshima coast, and learned to climb up walls with the assistance of cat statues.
I’m still impressed with how large this game is, given this is from the PS2 era. I played a bit longer than I wanted to, but I kept finding new things and I couldn’t stop!.. that and I still had a full glass of wine to drink. :v
