Streaming some Midnight Hunt limited episode 1! https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #mtgmidnight
[23:52] Did three drafts today, and the only reason I would do that would be if the first two were terrible! Finally got out of RB for the last one and redeemed myself a bit!

I finished Horizon Zero Dawn a while back, after getting a free copy off PS+ in June. Then I spent a couple of weeks chasing the platinum trophy for the game. The PS+ copy also came with the Frozen Wilds DLC, so I spent another month or so playing through that expansion as well. I already finished all the Frozen Wilds quests and wanted to get all the Frozen Wilds trophies too. I already got most of the but the other day, one of them wouldn't pop, so I just gave up, so I can do this quick review + -

[22:42] Tonight's extra long final AFR stream featured FOUR DRAFTS. Look at these piles and try to guess whether I made it out of Gold rank?

Drafting Adventures in the Forgotten Realms! ep 6 - Quick Drafts! https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtgafr #magicarena #twitch
It was a bit of longish stream. I did two quick drafts, a mediocre RW run and an excellent BW run that hit 7 wins and got me into platinum!

Drafting Adventures in the Forgotten Realms! ep 5 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtgafr #twitch #magicarena
The draft deck was decent, but lacked removal. Draft didn't go well, and network even crapped out for me towards the end, so I didn't bother with a second one. Finished 2-3.

Drafting Adventures in the Forgotten Realms! ep 3 https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtgafr #magicarena #twitch
Today's draft wasn't as good as the last one, but still a pretty good finish. Internet was a bit problematic though, so the video upload is probably choppy.

Casually drafting some Adventures in the Forgotten Realms! https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtgafr #magicarena #twitch
Managed two drafts tonight, but both ended with mediocre 2-3s. I think I didn't have enough synergy both times? Hope I figure out the format soon!

I was on a Twitch chat for a local streamer yesterday and someone bought up the term "comsat", popular in local computer shop or "compshop" (also called "internet cafes") culture. In the context of multiplayer games, it means to spy on what your opponent is doing by peeking at his screen. I've never heard this term used other than by Filipino gamers, so I have reason to believe it's a local thing. There is an Urban Dictionary entry, but the submitter might just be a Pinoy as well. Some of the younger gamers weren't familiar with the origins of the -
I played almost all of FF8 junctioning only 1 of a spell to each stat, not considering that increasing the number might lead to better stats. Got all the way to the final boss this way, which felt impossible with my low stats #gaming
Quoted AndyLunique's tweet:I played through about 20 hours of Skyrim before I was aware of fast travel in the game.
I also got to the end of disc 1 in FF7 before realizing I could equip weapons and materia.
Has anyone else made these kinds of mistakes?

Dan Fornace, creator of Rivals of Aether writes: After 8 years of working in fighting games, I’ve accepted the fact that no matter how “easy” you make your game, pros will absolutely demolish new players. Well-known fighting game Youtuber Maximillian talks about the casual appeal of Guilty Gear -STRIVE- and expands a bit on the above: I think there is definitely a serious learning curve when it comes to fighting games. They're typically difficult for the uncommitted casual gamer to get into. There's a lot of stuff that needs to be learned: inputs, commands, matchups, systems, etc. I mean, I've

Monday Strixhaven quick drafts! https://www.twitch.tv/twitchyroy #mtg #magicarena #twitch #twitter #mtgstrixhaven
Did two quick drafts today, both were mediocre, but one was slightly better than the other. Probably one more QD stream this week before sealed open on the weekend!
YT episode split into two because the stream hiccuped in the middle.
