Resident Evil 4 Remake recently released!

 I plan on releasing a part every day until I finish the main story. This is in addition to most of the stuff I do daily like Guild Wars 2, unboxings, etc. Hopefully I will be able to keep up! Here is the first part:

Update!

 Apparently I haven't posted here about this, but I have started to do some unboxings of Pokemon/Magic the Gathering. If things go well with some stuff, maybe Yu-gi-oh and other stuff in the future. I don't really do them to get money cards - mainly just to open and showcase the pulls. Also good times when I think I get something cool but turns out to be not as cool, and something I think seems ok turns out really good.

There's also a game that came out recently that I wanted to record or stream, but it doesn't like OBS for some reason. Plays fine by itself, but lags if I try to record it. It happened before with Cyberpunk as well. Maybe I should save to upgrade my PC.

Other than that, Steam's Next Fest recently happened and I recorded a bit of demos from that event. Lot of neat stuff! Normal let's plays (Guild Wars 2, Elden Ring, etc.) will return after all of them get uploaded.

New stuff added to the blog!

 I added a Duelyst 2 section! Right now it only contains the solo challenges stuff but I might add more in the future. They are not straight walkthroughs, but me talking through my process and attempting them for the first time. They do have solutions, and I go through them, but the videos aren't just the solutions.

The later ones have time-coded sections to differentiate the attempts and the solution.

Another Update

 I have been streaming more lately, though only on the days where I don't have work. Mainly Overwatch 2 and Guild Wars 2. I want to stream Dwarf Fortress, but Duelyst 2 is coming back soon. This time in open beta! Can't wait to have the custom skin I colored and an altered card added into the game. When that releases, I think I will try to make that my main, though I still would like to get the dailies/weeklies in Overwatch 2 done (preferably less than 3 hours per session.. that last session was just painful).

As for Overwatch 2, there is a new battle pass out and it is still grindy, though it seems like some of the weeklies were made easier. The payouts are still terrible though.

As for as Guild Wars 2, I think I am close to the end of the personal story, though I haven't reached the final area yet at the time of this post. I think I will actually experience Season 1 for the first time ever on the Steam account and not my main.

New update!

 Wow it has been a while since I updated this. Just been busy and haven't really had a chance to post. The last post was still about unpacking and stuff. While there are still a few boxes left, I've been recording and even streaming a bit now. I think the plan is to stream Overwatch 2, Duelyst 2, and Guild Wars 2 on the weekends, though preferably the last 2 more, but Overwatch 2 is still fun. I just don't like a lot of the things surrounding it - bad reward system, the overly grindy battle pass, etc. I could do an entire video/post on Overwatch 2 but maybe for a later time.

As of this post, the Duelyst 2 Kickstarter has 7 days left and already reached about 85k from a 25k goal! Can't wait until the beta comes out, and then the launch. The Kickstarter is here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dreamslothgames/duelyst-ii

As for youtube, I will probably be doing more Guild Wars 2 and Duelyst 2 stuff in the future, though I will still do mobile games that I see ads for and a random game here and there. Overwatch 2 will probably be in shorts form for highlights. I'm also getting back into Valorant, though I don't know if I am going to stream that on a regular basis or not.

About time I update this

 This last month has been pretty hectic. Mainly packing. A lot of packing. Didn't realize how much stuff I have, and yeah. Now that I have moved in, I will have to take time to unpack, though I can only really do it on the weekends.

I have been recording though. I think among all this, I only missed one day of a main video, and that was because the internet wasn't working. Had to switch providers because my prior one couldn't be carried over to the new location. Signed up with a new provider and then it wouldn't connect

However, everything is up and running now. Still have to unpack stuff, but I'm back recording. Hopefully I will stream soon. The new provider has less upload speed, but I don't know if that will effect the quality of my streams.

On another note, Duelyst is coming back! I recorded a video during the network test, and I think the beta will be coming out shortly.

Haven't been streaming lately

Short post today.

I have been going through some things at home - everything is fine, just a little hectic. Hopefully when things settle down by July, I will be able to stream more often. Hopefully more than once a week. I also plan on upgrading my internet speed so I can stream with a better quality.

For some reason one of my mobile videos is getting attention - I assume it is because of the iffyness of the ratings. After playing all these mobile games, I feel like the ratings are almost never accurate. At least on advertised games.

Also Steam Next Fest is live again! I plan on trying more demos and record them!

Mobile Madness!

 Throughout the month I have been playing a lot of gacha games. There are some things that all of them have in common, like the pay to win aspect. I don't know if this is a thing on Apple's store, but on the Play Store, there are ratings for the games, and some of them that I have played are rated incorrectly in my opinion. Some are rated T, but have things that are in M+ rated games. No idea if there are adult versions of the games, since all the ones I play are on the Play Store.

It's been a month?

 Wow time flies.

I recorded an unboxing of the Steam deck, but I don't know if I should release it as it, or put a voiceover.

Also I am so close to 1k subscribers!

I still have no idea why some videos are popular... Attack on Time has been popping off for some reason.

I still want to stream more... maybe fortnite? I have been enjoying the no build stuff, though I wonder how many players are bots.

I also wanted to make a detailed post of Sakuracon, so maybe I will do that in the future.

Update

 Well a convention is coming soon, so I should prepare for that by making more videos beforehand.

I am thinking of starting Undertale. I have heard good things about the game, but hopefully the fandom has died down.

I also want to stream more, but I can't do it when I upload since it would just make the stream laggy. There are games that I want to continue streaming, like Cuphead, and there are games that I said I would stream, but never started, like Lost Ark. Hopefully I can get that sorted after the convention.

Another Update

 It's been a while, but not really much has happened.

I have been playing a lot of Axiom Verge lately, so other games are in the backburner. I want to keep continuing those, but I guess we will see after I finish Axiom. I also want to finish Lost Ruins since I feel like I am getting really close to the end.

I also want to start Sonic 06, as well as go through most of the games I got in recent bundles - mostly indie stuff, but it's just finding the time.

There is also a convention coming up soon, so I should try and record ahead of that so I don't get behind the following week.

I wanted to do more Gran Turismo 7, but I read about what they did in a recent patch (as of this post). I don't know if they will revert it, or just keep the rates as they are now, but we will see.

Other than that, it has been mainly Guild Wars 2, Lost Ark, and Forza Horizon 5 as my main games. I'm getting closer to End of Dragons in Guild Wars 2, albeit slowly. I am also slowly getting to level 50 in Lost Ark. Forza Horizon 5 has been mainly about the weekly stuff. I have 2 achievements left before I 100% that game in terms of achievements, though one of them will probably take a long while and many attempts.

Lost Ark is pretty fun for me

 Is it P2W? Most likely. Though I am not in a position yet to see it since I am still at the beginning for the most part. It just feels refreshing for a game that has already been out for years, and there are a lot of things to collect. Some grindy, some just exploring.

Also at the time of this post, Next Fest is happening on Steam. Going to try a few demos and put those videos out starting next week, so some of my weekly stuff will be paused, even though I recorded some already. There are some repeats from last time that I saw on the page, and some I am not that interested in, but I will try to get a variety of genres.

Also Vampire Survivors is pretty fun. Though I hear it is based off an Android game, so I do plan on trying that out in the future as well.

So many new games

 I have been thinking that I should slowly start to put 2 (3 if you count the daily solutions) videos out a day, with all the backlog I have. It doesn't really make sense to do a few at a time. I was also thinking of streaming some - and I have. I started with Cuphead for the time being. Seemed pretty well received. It is very challenging, but I haven't found a reason to rage yet. Lot of RNG I noticed.

I want to release 2 Shovel Knight videos a week, since I recently started that as well.

When Lost Ark drops, I think I will stream it to both twitch and youtube. It will be the first game I streamed to both at the same time since Duelyst I believe (or it could be Paladins..it has been a while). I have not seen any guides or anything, but I feel like I should. At least a beginner's guide on what to do or not do.

I also still need to finish the Ice Brood Saga in Guild Wars 2 before I start the new expansion.

TLDR, so many games to play, so little time.
