So, I dearly hope this is the right spot for this but here we go. Ya'll mostly know me by Mendacity, unless you don't and then you know me by Moony, but I've started up Twitch streaming for multiple reasons. The first is that streaming games and chatting at people is calming in a way for me, I'm not sure why but it just is, probably something to do with how it feels like we're all just sitting in a living room chilling out. The second (and third) reasons are more complex. I have something called an Essential Tremor, which means that when I try to use my hands they shake. It gets worse upon more and more stress / emotional turmoil. It's a neurological condition that got much worse after my car accident, which sucks but we live with what we get! Thing is, I've noticed that like no one knows about this condition and half the time I have to describe it as 'Parkinson's light' (yes, it's related to Parkinson's but it is what's called an intention tremor or an action tremor more often than a simple sitting tremor like Parkinson's). I've even been accused of hacking / aim botting on Overwatch! Which is hilarious because if you look at my actual aim scores they're really low. Long story short, however, I've decided to majorly stream to raise awareness! I've also decided to do so on Twitch and connect in a donation button to forward any money to the essential tremor foundation (or whichever foundation I've chosen). Everything is described more in detail on my actual stream page, but I thought I'd make a little thread for updates and discussions. I'll take recommendations for games (if I have them, or like that kind of game), charities, and so-forth. I'll also be sharing here first (over my twitter) what games I might play (for you to help me decide)! !>Here's The Stream!<! Usual Stream Times: Wednesday starting at 6:30PM EST Saturday starting at 6:30PM EST Sunday starting at 6:30PM EST I also try to stream around that time every night, but on average these are the times I'm most likely to be on. Checking here (or my Twitter) is the best way to know for sure when I'll stream though.
The forecast for tonight is: Rainy with a chance of streaming, possibly Astroneer but possibly a return to the more common Overwatch. Could possibly stream Hearthstone, since I'm terrible at it and it's probably funny to watch me fail at it.
Overwatch mostly at the current time, Hearthstone, I do plan on streaming Astroneer (Hopefully it doesn't shit up my computer), and maybe some other indie games. Problem is that I need to upgrade / look at my rig because for some reason Subnautica (which I would normally stream) is all sorts of weird since I last played it. I'm not getting the full water graphics, for some reason it's automatically making my graphics all weird.
And feel free to rec games. I might also play One Shot at some point, but I'd like to save that for a set of streams dedicated to like the Bipolar Society.
However, stream might have to wait until tomorrow. I'll update here but tl;dr I went to Ikea yesterday and wore myself out. It's JUST catching up with me
No matter what I am streaming TONIGHT If you like you can check my Twitter for faster updates but also I have a poll up there. @RadonMoons
So, Mass Effect: Andromeda released a Trial of the first 10 hours of the game for subscribers to Origin Access! Once mine's installed I'll be streaming it I think, once I'm sure my PC can handle it, so keep watch for details
