Good News Bad News

 Good News: My new laptop is in.


Bad News: I was unable to make further progress on FireRed before then.


Good News: There may be a way I can transfer the files so I can continue on the new computer.


Bad News: The old computer has not yet been able to turn on so that I can test my method, which still might not work even when it does.


Good News: Whether it works or not, I will still get to the other games at some point 


Bad News: It may or may not be in the Screenshot LP method.


Good News: Because I'm able to actually do some barebones streaming now. Watch here for erratically scheduled streams and VODs. Tentatively planning on starting Baldur's Gate 3 at some point tomorrow.

If Only There Was Someone Out There Who Loved You

As usual, people complaining constantly about a thing I always thought was just okay made me reevaluate it and come to the conclusion it's actually great

Release Date

 The final chapters of Let's Play Pokémon FireRed will be ready to begin posting starting the week of March 5th. 


EDIT FROM THE FUTURE: I should know better than to make promises. The day after I posted this, my workload doubled. Every time I had the chance to really work on this, I was too burnt out to do anything. I'm sorry if I got everyone's hopes up. I'm still not abandoning the project, I just need to be in a better place.

Update

The Disney trip has come and gone, but internet issues still persist. It is unlikely that we'll see any concluding episodes of the Let's Play anytime soon until the internet issues are solved, since the bulk of the work needs to be on the laptop. That being said, after a few days resting from the trip, I do want to start at least working on the back-end stuff again (playing and screencapping and formatting said screencaps) so whenever these issues get resolved I can put out the remainder fairly quickly.

A Very Brief Thought About MCU Phase 4

I know I don't really do the movie reviews here the way I used to, but I do plan on sharing my personal ranking after Wakanda Forever comes out in November marking the end of the current Phase. And with all the talk that has gone on about things lately, I kind of wanted to give a preview to my thoughts on the matter and give out a few very hard truths

Ahem...


*pulls out megaphone*


MCU PHASE 4 IS EASILY THE BEST PHASE THE MARVEL MOVIES HAVE HAD SO FAR AND ALL OF YOU CALLING IT "DIRECTIONLESS" AND "TERRIBLE" NEED TO REMOVE YOUR HEADS FROM YOUR ASSES. AND IF YOU'RE THE KIND OF PERSON THAT CALLS IT "WOKE" UNIRONICALLY AS A NEGATIVE THEN YOU NEED TO SEEK PROFESSIONAL HELP


Granted there is a little more nuance to my full take on the whole thing, but I just needed to get that out now. For now, I'm just going to lament that I have to wait another week to see what happens next in She-Hulk.

Further Delays

I am not dead nor have I given up. Some work on Episode 25 has happened since my last update, but things like an ever increasing lack of free time and frequent internet issues have been keeping me from getting back on schedule. I had hoped to get the series done well before my daughter's Wish Trip to Disney World in the first week of October, but that looks less and less possible now. 

I hate that this kind of thing is happening again, but I'm still proud I went six months of intensive weekly updates before this stuff happened, and it took The Virus (tm) to knock me off track completely.

Quick Update

Recovered from Covid and moved back home albeit bringing kids and ex with me (long story, landlords are bad). Work on Episode 25 and beyond of Let's Play Pokémon FireRed will resume on August 15th after a limited theatre engagement next week, and should conclude at a decent pace from there.


My next big project for this blog will be heavily focused on Marvel United as I finally have all my boxes in from the Kickstarter, though I may pace myself wider to avoid burnout again (it will be less backend-intensive though, so we'll see). Other posts may be sprinkled in as the mood takes me.

As I said before, though, while my next Pokémon Let's Play won't be for a little while after, I do plan on doing many more. It will either be in the same style, or if I am able to stream by then I might change ut to video. Or maybe some kind of hybrid. It depends on what my situation is when the time finally comes.
