Ok, this just looks funny.

Tune in next week when a cat marries a toaster. :v
OverlordTomala and friends try Skyrim Mod: “Tamriel Online”
http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/67038/?
It’s a multiplayer mod, a very buggy one at that. But it seems to hold the most promise so far, that and lots of players running around in their undies…
I think I awoke to the end of the world
When I woke up today I thought I was in one of my bizarre dreams. Gay Marriage is legal in all states, the stars n bars are still quickly becoming an endangered flag species, and Obamacare is official.
All that’s left is to throw in world peace and it’ll be good. :v
So, about my weekend… Part 2
I got a call from my old section today. They’re down two people due to sick calls, and have been getting called to go down and check like crazy. So it looks like I’ll be making some overtime money today… I’m happy and kinda bummed at the same time since I did make some plans to just go out and enjoy myself. But I still have tomorrow off, and my next days off are actually much closer. Although that could change too…
The way the store is being run is ridiculous now. We’re down 56 people and can’t hire anyone new because it’s handled at the corporate level, and they can only see that we need 3 positions filled. Our store director hasn’t bothered to correct the information. No one from the other stores are wanting to apply, and the remaining people that we do have are being copious amounts of overtime. I seriously don’t get it. If they hired more people there would be less overtime, and the company would actually save money.
Either way I’ve made it clear that I’ll only help other departments if I get overtime. I’ll get paid more and it’ll hit them where it hurts, their bonus checks.
The weekend is here, time to plot evil things… like going out to lunch.
Finally got to my weekend. 😀 The weather is supposed to be nice for the next couple days. So I plan on working on my painting project, and I might be going up river… maybe even go out for some sushi. A new sushi place opened up and I went there last week to celebrate my belated birthday kinda. They make really good sushi! I had what was called the ninja roll. The inside was filled with spicy tuna, nori, etc, and on the outside it was a nice panko crust. I also had that with some unfiltered Oregon sake. It was a nice milky white with a nice flavor. It was good chilled.
The new Batman isn’t really loved on PC right now.
The release of Arkham Knight is all kinds of fucked up right now. It was ported to PC by 12 people.
According to Batman: Arkham Knight’s credits, it appears Iron Galaxy Studios only had 12 of its employees working on the PC port of the game. Considering how ambitious of a game Arkham Knight is, having just 12 people working on the game seems a bit on the small side if you ask us. And after experiencing the many issues the PC version of Arkham Knight has, as well as reading complaints from a wide variety of Steam users, we have a feeling this amount of people just wasn’t enough to provide the kind of product customers expected.
That would explain why it’s so poorly optimized. Hell even the console version has ambient occlusion and other features built into it. This is a Batman title, a popular title that would obviously generate a shit ton of money, as have the previous games. Why would you hire a team the size of an indie to tackle this?
Update
Forgot to mention that Arkham Knight has been taken off Steam (or rather the ability to purchase it). Probably due to all the negativity, and the fact that you can get refunds now. 😛
Shadow Warrior 2 is looking pretty cool
Saw the first 15 minutes of the new Shadow Warrior. Looks like they’re adding some new features, including multiplayer!
Adding this to my list of epic awesome shit to populate my Steam drive. Right next to Fallout 4, Obduction, and maybe Doom 4.
So, about my weekend.
I’m writing this since I probably won’t be making it on tonight to BS and play. The first part of my weekend has been put on hold since I have to go to work early tomorrow to cover for someone. My boss is making an effort to make sure I get a day off closer to my other one, but if he fails I get overtime… so it’s win-win really. I’ve been really enjoying my new job. The pay and hours are about the same which sucks, but the job itself has been pretty cool, and the team that I work with is a lot of fun. I work around a lot of technology, and I’ve been selling lots of electronics (mainly consoles, TV’s, streaming devices etc) and I already know how most of it works. Plus I can provide insight on certain things if customers aren’t sure about something. Although I’ve had to endure some very interesting people during my adventures thus far. Like one woman who tried to convince me that 500GB drive 1 TB are the same amount of drive space… or another one that wanted to know if the Windoze phone she was interested in had Android on it. Then I get guys from time to time that don’t know how to pronounce HDMI. I hear some really interesting ones, like HDIM, H1DR etc etc.
So, tonight will be a bit of a blog night. Since I don’t really have time for much else. 😛
Rick and Morty invade gaming universes
I like how Rick and Morty continue to invade gaming. I just found this video, and while I don’t really play Dota 2 I was really amused by it.

Seems to be official. Unlike the Rick and Morty Skyrim mods, although those did get a tip of the hat from Rick and Morty’s creator.
