A montage of Batman paying us a visit during our gaming videos!
Context: I sometimes add animations to my gameplay videos, especially when I have friends that invoke the voice of Batman. Most of the audio in this video was taken from past livestreams and game recording sessions.
I’ll have something more special down the road for a milestone video. But for now, heeeeeeeere’s Batman!
Sleep only visited me for a brief time last night before leaving me to wake in a bad flare of anguish. It was fun going to work today on fumes… I laid down for a bit when I got home, but I still didn’t nod off. It was nice to rest my eyes for awhile though. Tomorrow starts later, so hopefully I’ll catch some extra rest. Nothing in my endless library is really enticing me to play tonight, even on my Steam Deck. The pain is at bay for now, but the brain fog from it lingers on. Hopefully it blows away for the start of my weekend, ugh.
Open Thread.
Only had about half an hour of game time tonight, and I decided to spend it advancing through Portal Stories: Mel. I’m still early into the game, but I got my hands on an old school Portal gun and through the first “test”. Now I’m in the first “official” test chamber! Perfect point for me to leave off at.
Work was surprisingly chill today. Came home and did some closed captioning for a video releasing this weekend! I’ll work on the title card tomorrow nite. I went through some Palworld footage. It’s over two hours, but I’ve already picked away at the first hour in under an hour… funny how that works.
Haven’t decided what game I’ll be playing on the TV tonight. Last night I tuned in for another episode of Horizon Forbidden West, though I might give HFW a small nap, switch it up and do something else tonight.
No promises.
It’s the last day of vacation, and I spent it the best way I could. Ate an amazing breakfast, did a little photography, drank some green jasmine, gave myself a night time spa treatment and pedicure, rendered a video, and enjoyed some theatrical gaming on a big screen TV. It was great to end the day/evening on a good note. 🙂
It started to feel like summer today! The sun felt amazing, the wind was perfection, and it was the right temperature to convince me to check out latest update too Ex-Zodiac. For their April update they added a new map called “Mirage”. It’s basically a wild west planet, and the only other level where you ride a hover bike instead of a spaceship.
Out of all the other levels I’ve played so far, Mirage has the hardest boss battle. I died multiple times, but learned something each time I died. I’ll need to go back and practice some more, and maybe find the missing data disc.
Ah, another weekend where we partied like it was the late 90’s! Our multiplayer choice this weekend was Quake II. We beat The Reckoning Expansion yesterday, and tonight we completed the Ground Zero expansion. Now we just have to finish Call of the Machine, that one looks to be a much larger expansion compared to the other two, and has a hub world similar to Quake.
In fine Overlord fashion I started on one thing and ended up going in another direction. I’ve decided to put together a special video compilation as its own project separate from the milestone video, but ran into problems when I tried to re-export one of my old SFM sessions in 4K. I have a couple of options I haven’t tried yet to get it to export properly, but while I make preparations I’ve been rendering other old SFM projects for the same montage without any problems. Weird that it’s just one file that’s doing it though…
Today I focused on finishing up closed captioning for all the remaining videos waiting to be released, now I have a clear head about what to decide on next! Tomorrow I’ll get started writing up a script for the 420+ milestone video. In the meantime I’ll be getting back into doing what I do best… capturing drones!
