This Time FOR SURE!

TONIGHT! at 6:30pm EDT/ 10:30pm UTC. Join us as we are assisted in our quest to solve our audio issues by TEVAT'S FRICKING GODDESS OF WISDOM.



No, we didn't pull her but the quest does revolve around Nahida. We'll also be joined by The Balladeer and, presumably, a metric ton of lore. So, grab a drink and a snack, stop by, say "Hi!", and prepare to mercilessly harass a streamer as we try again (this time WITH SOUND) to do INVERSION OF GENESIS (the quest we started on Friday) in GENSHIN IMPACT! Join the fun at https://www.twitch.tv/brickmuppet

Meanwhile: On the Twitch Channel


Next week's schedule sees some changes, as we RETURN to Hydaelyn, amusingly, we're now actually farther behind in the story than when we started Final Fantasy 14. We will attempt to finish Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, derp around in Doom 2, and do SOMETHING on Thursday. Friday, we'll be celebrating the end of the week by chilling in Genshin Impact with another audience participation stream. Tonight, however, we must try to save a Raccoon! (We might also have to rescue an annoying redhead) as we seek to thwart a corrupt CEO, defeat Lovecraftian cultists, and finish the incredibly well written, and horrifying.....uh....BEACH EPISODE of Zenless Zone Zero's second season. Stop by tonight, be amazed by the story and take the oportunity to bully a streamer, the fun begins tonight at 6:30pm EDT / 10:30pm UTC over at https://www.twitch.tv/brickmuppet

Musical Interlude (and an Invitation)

Music: Amaranthe's Digital World Video: a selection of ZZZ Cut Scenes. 

Zenless Zone Zero is an astonishingly well written game and despite all the issues that are inherent to the Gacha model, it is quite satisfying. 

It's VERY Free To Play friendly (I have yet to spend a cent after one year). The story itself is weird and as mentioned here, despite the Xianxia elements, it scores surprisingly high on Moh's Scale of Sci-Fi Hardness, (4-4.5 is the number I keep coming up with...and that is SO strange*).

I started streaming this game as a temporary filler and was frankly put off at first by the very unconventional mechanics. However the story was interesting and it has grown on me. While lacking the gorgeous scenery and astounding open world of Genshin, it is every bit as well written as Genshin Impact and the more urban environs are interesting in their own right. 

The combat playstyle is reminiscent of the arcade fighting games of long ago with every character having a specific set of keystrokes to maximize their ability in addition to the usual controls. 

I do recommend it. 

Tonight we'll be streaming the premier of the Summer Event and exploring more of the story, in an early stream 6pmEST/10pmUTC over at https://www.twitch.tv/brickmuppet so stop by, say "Hi!" and bully a V-Tuber as he roll the Gacha and tilts at the RNG.


*While the science is fairly solid given the conceits of the plot....we should perhaps have a trigger warning  for engineers...there is no engineering here!

And Now: A Word From Hololive

The Star Spangled Banner is a hard song to sing. A lot of V-Tubers try from time to time and it's frequently done as a bit, since hilarity often ensues. Hololive does this in the context of a beat game that scores the player on how well one matches the proper version of the song....Naressa Ravencroft took it seriously though, and pretty much nailed it. 


(In fact, I'd never caught the last word of the first verse until now)
