Not me, that’s for sure.

Been a couple of weeks since I streamed something, so now that I have, it’s time for another blog post that will meet all of your wildest desires (for kuoushi™ content).

The most recent thing to talk about is how we’ve begun the current endgame for the Call of Juarez series. Playing things in reverse is normal, and here I am starting up the very first in the Call of Juarez series. What’s that, you say? There was another game I’m forgetting about? Well too fucking bad. It’s not sold anymore so I’m not going out of my way to get it and play it. This is it. No more Call of Juarez after I finish playing this first game, unless of course they release another. I’m sure all of the dozens of Call of Juarez fans will fault me for this and stop watching my streams in droves. Whatever the case, hey come watch the Call of Juarez streams live or check them out as they get posted to the archive.

The other thing of note is that I’ve kind of sort of taken up a new streaming hobby where I’ll find games that have around 100 or less reviews on Steam, and then I’ll stream them. There likely won’t be many diamonds in the rough, but I do expect to have some experiences. On that note, we’ve done four such games so far! I’m calling the series The Bargain Bin to myself, and if you want to keep up with whenever I stream those games, just check out the tag here. That Which Gives Chase and The Warriorlock in particular were a lot of fun to me. Katana Soul and Powernaut Vangardt were just too hard on my old man reflexes, unfortunately. I might give the latter another try now that I know how it works though.

What’s that? More has happened since the last post? You’re right. I’ve actually been busy. On top of the above, I also finished playthroughs of Dino Crisis 2 and the Doom total conversion mod known as Ashes: Afterglow, which is fantastic.

We’ll say that’s it for now (aside from the PeerTube archive still moving backwards fairly swimmingly into the year 2015), so hope you’ve all enjoyed this recap of the past few months of totally good times.

Thanks as always.

It’s done, is all I’m saying. We arrived on Talos 1 with naught but uh, naught. And we left with even less. I mean, honestly it was a fun game with a lot of different options in how you play it. I didn’t play it the right way, and I can tell you why. One, I didn’t even know how to zoom in until the very last stream. That’s pretty much it. Also I never used any of the different powers available. Just shooty shooted my way through. But hey, it was a viable way to play and that’s what makes Prey a good game. It let me be an idiot and didn’t stop me from doing so. I had fun.

That being said, we now have to pick some new games! I actually already have, for once, and can let you know right in this post what we’ll be playing tonight! It’s a miracle of modern science.

Tonight we’ll be starting off by playing That Which Gives Chase, a small horror adventure into the snows of the north with a team of dogs on my sled and shit. Honestly seems like a neat little experience. And since that’s relatively short, we’ll follow it up by starting up with THE WARRIORLOCK. There’s a lot of WRITING in this game, and I’m really unsure of the quality, but we’ll get through it all the same.

And, what would a new post be without me updating you all on the cool progress my PeerTube instance is making in transferring my entire archive from YouTube to a nice, locally-sourced video hosting platform. It’s uh, it’s making progress. We’re going backwards through time and have made it into 2017 now with some of the final drunk streams. It’s safe to say things are going well.

That’s it for now, thanks as always and see you at the streams or in the comments or just, you know, wherever you happen to see me.

Been a while since we’ve gotten to write one of those posts where we talk about the game being done with. But, that’s exactly what this post is. The impossible has been achieved, and kuoushi has beaten Homefront: The Revolution, as well as its three DLCs which are just short missions. It’s a game, it exists, and now we won’t play it ever again. But, if you find yourself wanting to enjoy hopping in kuoushi’s mind as he fumbles through the game, the archives are here to stay for all eternity. Or at least until all of my archives die out again. Hopefully, that doesn’t happen.

Check out the Homefront: The Revolution archives here!

So, now comes the fun part. What game are we going to play for a year and a half next? I mean, the hope is that I’ll be able to stream weekends way late at night for the foreseeable future, so games shouldn’t last nearly as long, but is that something I can guarantee? Obviously not. Still, we get to choose a new game that will hopefully be just as entertaining (at the minimum) as Homefront: The Revolution.

Whatever I choose, you’ll find out next weekend most likely!

All of the archived recordings on my hard drives have been uploaded or otherwise made available. Honestly, I never would’ve expected to make it this far on the project. It’s honestly been a little over a half a year since I started doing the Saturday streams, and an even longer time than that since I started getting up the regular long form streams. Pretty huge project, but I think the current state of the archive is worth it.

I still have a decent amount to do, though, before I can really consider the archive as complete, or as complete as it can be. I have to add in a few streams that are in my schedule but the recordings are gone. I have to recheck against the schedule to ensure the calendar dates for streams are accurate, though that should be mostly accurate at this point. I’d also like to grab old chat logs (of which I don’t have any from before 2014 or so), then include those as subtitles on the appropriate videos. Plus, I’d like to eventually get the phone call segments up as their own little videos to show off what happened way back in the day when I allowed people to just call in. Lots to do, but I’ll get there eventually.

And that’s not at all including going back to streaming. I can vaguely see some time in my schedule opening up in the vaguely near future to stream again. I have Homefront 2 to finish (which is like, 1 or 2 streams depending on DLC), and then a whole ass list of other games I’ve started preparing. Things like a return to Deadly Premonition (this time with less crashes?), Demon’s Souls, F.E.A.R., Thief 2, and a few oddball options like the private server for Hellgate: London. Will I get to all these? Chances are low, but I think I’m going to at least be able to stream a bit more in the future here.

Anyway, that’s it from me for now. Hope to see you guys again sometime.

Several months ago I started on the journey of auditing through all of the drunk streams we’d done over the past decade+. Over 300 or so streams of varying lengths and qualities from all the way back in 2009 up to the present day. The average length of each of these streams was something like 4 hours, and some of them were even up to 8 hours or more in length. I watched through all of them in the background as I worked every night, making sure I don’t say anything too out of line or play music that’s copyright protected or whatever (this latter thing happened a lot). I got to basically relive my streaming history through all of that, and now you can too.

The entirety of my backlog of drunk/Saturday streams are now fully available (aside from the missing ones) for the first time in the archives. They’re all nicely tagged, and if you’re just looking for streams that feature you talking, for instance, you should be able to find them based on the tags. Or if you’re a Highwang fan you can always check the Highwang tag to see some of his earlier forays into the streaming world. You know, fun stuff like that.

Anyway, it’s just been a long time and I’m pretty pleased with the archive being this much closer to completion, so I thought I’d make a post about it. All that’s left is getting the various specials and some other miscellaneous streams up, and then the archive will be as complete as it possibly can be.

Cool stuff, thanks for reading.
