08/28 - Banjo-Kazooie Nostalgia 64 Full Playthrough Part 4
08/29 - Day Off
Hello everyone, it's been the hottest minute of all time. I have so much to say, but I'm going to keep it not very long and sweet.
Around the middle of June, my boss put in a recommendation for me to temporarily work in a different department to the Vice President of the company. Tl;dr, that department ungodly behind with a lot of work piled up. I can say many words about the previous person, but I'll keep it simple and say they essentially sat there and accepted free paychecks for months. I accepted the task and for the month and change, I worked in that position. Because this happened very suddenly, I put in all of my effort and mentality to my job, putting streaming on the back burner. On the few days per week I was able to stream, were days I had the energy to put on a show. Even so, you can tell I was not 100% there. Thankfully it was mainly exhaustion from work, not burnout. A month passed, myself and another new hire were able to not only catch up on the massive workload, we were also able to continue to keep the workload manageable and even began projects to further the department. During that time I worked, I was offered the job permanently from the VP. I didn't accept right away, still wanted to get the feel of it, but after a few weeks of working there and getting advice from my managers, I did eventually accept it. On 08/19, I signed the transfer form and officially got promoted. A massive lump of stress was lifted and I felt amazing. Work took a lot out of me, but it was worth it. Now that I'm settled, it's time to get back on that grind and entertain you guys.
If you read the part above, thank you, I truly appreciate it. Now lets get down to business. I have a lot on my plate that I wanna finish, but I'm going to prioritize on Donkey Kong Bananza and Banjo-Kazooie Nostalgia 64. I'm not sure how much I have left in Bananza, but I know I'm nearing the end of Banjo-Kazooie. I'll be working my way to finishing both of those before I go back to anything else, Cassette Beasts being one of those.
Something else I'm going to be doing going forward is if there's something that I have to maintain with streams, whether it be adding sounds, adding backgrounds and more, I will just stream it. Like the Stream Avatar streams, those are going to be chill streams and I'll take input from you guys on things you want to see, things you want me to add and so forth. For the first one, I'm going to take all sounds from Twitch Channel Points, and I'm going to move them to Sammi exclusively. What does that mean for you? That means sound effects will no longer cost points, all you'd need to do is use a bot command to activate the sound. I'll go in full detail on the day of, but if you have questions about that, feel free to ask me!
Finally, I'm going to address the days off. You'll notice that I have Wednesdays and Fridays off. To keep it simple, those are days I play Mario Kart World with my co-workers. I like to keep my work life private besides generic details, so I will not stream those. If you are friends with me, you can join in and play. Wednesdays are 50/50, so I may be able to stream on those days, but Fridays are for sure going to be off. I'll consider Saturdays as a stream day, depends on how I feel but I'll announce those in person.
I have so much more to say, but I'll keep it at that. I'll do a future post later with other things I've missed, I'm still settling and getting my bearings on what I can do. I'll post this on my socials later and also post thumbnails and assets later today.
Thank you all, love each and everyone of you, I'll see you guys throughout the week!
