The Adventurer No One Asked For

It was a fun walk down memory lane this evening in Shotcut, the Skyrim footage is proving to be quite promising! So far I have almost two hours worth of footage cut down to a little over half an hour, with another fifteen minutes of it to chop up before doing a second pass at it. Unlike the three videos I pumped out this week, this one looks like it’ll require more attention in the animation dept. There is a tidal wave of ideas flowing through my brain right now; I’m overwhelmed with horrifying imagination between what transpired on screen, and what I have in SFM assets.

Video Makin’ Machine

Another evening passes, and another video has been rendered! I had to scrap the footage for Abyss Odyssey, but I did find enough footage for a small Quake Champions video! I’m thinking of keeping the Bethesda streak and continuing onward tomorrow by looking through some Skyrim footage, it’s been awhile since I’ve done anything with Skyrim… and I have an eternity’s worth of footage to sort through. In this case it’s only Session 2 of 45. I’ll save this for a day where my eyes are slightly less tired.

Two Down: More To Go

Not only did I finish up the Yakuza vid – I also put together a mini compilation from some old Serious Sam footage I took back in 2018! It’s a short simple video, but it has some fun moments in it. Damn, it’s nice to be getting through so much footage after all this time! I’m going to sort through footage of Abyss Odyssey tomorrow to see if there’s anything worth keeping, that one I’m not entirely sure about. I remember recording the footage for that when Steam Remote Play was recently released.

More Entertainment This Weekend!

If everything goes according to plan I should have this up to view by the weekend! I’m rendering the animations now, and I also have the video thumbnail good to go. I just need to drop in the ending, export, and call it good!

Meanwhile, as everything falls into place; I’ve been combing my hard drives for more video footage to adventure through! I’ve already deleted a few hundred gigs of GMod footage that I won’t be needing (the audio wasn’t setup correctly). I still have a couple hundred gigs of GMod footage to go through, but that’ll have to wait for another day… I’m starting to look at my Serious Sam footage with intrigue, although I already tossed a little over 100GB of video for that.

That just means I’ll have more storage for later. 😀

Monday Evening Open Thread

Well, this mini-vacation has been nice. But it’s time for me to get back to my weekly grind. It was nice to get some rest, get a small bit done in my closet, enjoy a game, and of course some personal spa treatment. 😛 I’m about as ready to return as I’m going to be. My mind is at a level of calm that will probably be undone within just a few hours, if that. Twas all fun while it lasted.

Here’s to the next weekend! 😛

Because One Day Of Raiding Tombs Wasn’t Enough

I guess I had so much fun exploring yesterday that I decided to continue onward with more tomb raiding! It was mostly backtracking for crates, and a couple challenge tombs here and there. It was an immersive escape from reality anyway. I think I’ve had my fill of it for now though, have to move onto the next thing.

Tea & Tombs

I treated myself to some luscious 4K HDR graphical fun tonight, made some progress, etc. If there’s anything I like in this game it’s the scenery. It kinda reminds me a lot of the local foliage I’d encounter when exploring the local woods and rivers. Ahhh, good times.

Other than that it’s been a quiet Saturday. I slept in, gave myself a bit of a spa day, detox’d the day away with green tea, and treated myself to clean bedding. I can’t complain.

Better Get a Bucket, Stanley

It’s officially my weekend now! I have the next three days off. I’ve been playing through The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe, a perfect game to play when your brain is completely shot from not having gone to sleep after a 12 hour rest. I experienced most of the new content the game has to offer, and I loved every second of it! I’m so satisfied with it in fact, that I’m thinking I’ll move onto another game tomorrow. Something that involves a little bit more than just walking around laughing at things. Perhaps walking around, laughing at things with slightly more mayhem.

12 Hours Later

Holy shit… I don’t know how I did it, but I went to bed a little after 10 this morning, and didn’t wake up until after 10 tonight. I must have been fucking tired. There goes getting any animation done before work.

There’s so much to do, and I only have time to get ready for work. I don’t think I’ll have a bit to do around the house when I get home tomorrow morning.

Holy fuck.

The Music Of Yakuza

I’ve been listening to songs from the different Yakuza games while working (slowly) on the ending for the Like a Dragon vid. I can’t decide who’s rendition of Machine Gun Kiss I like better, Adachi or Kiryu.

I like both, though Adachi’s rendition has more feeling to it, especially at the very end. It’s also funny because his voice actor in Japanese is the same one who plays Solid Snake. Now I can’t help but imagine what it’d be like for Solid Snake to bust out those dummy thicc notes. 😛
