Giving this LiveStream Thing a Shot

My LiveStream Setup
Photo-A-Day #4544

Today I decided to try out some Live Streaming. I have a lot to learn to make this a much better experience for anyone watching. I a using a software called OBS. This can do a lot of things and I got it set up so that I can play video games as well as change camera sizes. I may even grab a small HD webcam to have an additional camera angle to use when showing toys. I’ve also got to make sure that if I am doing any video game livestreaming to turn off the music from the games. I immediately got a copyright ding from Nintendo for the music from ARMS.

In my livestream I unboxed my latest Smugglers’s Bounty box. This box was themed Jedi and it contained items for Jedi like Obi-Wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jin, Aayla Secura, Plo Koon and Yoda. There were good items in the box although I would have liked it if they included the paper inside that details how they decided on the characters and what it took to come up with the character designs for the Funko figures.

As far as Funko figures go I found some little figures for the movie Thor Ragnarok. They are actually keychains but I take the keychain part off to have small figures. I’ll be taking them with me to LA next month for the Thor Ragnarok Press trip that I am attending. I’ve got to write up a post all about it, too.

During the livestream I also played some Legend of Zelda and show a cool little robot that we got for review. So, take a look and I promise I will figure out the whole sound thing for the extra videos and video games.

Review: LEGO Worlds for the Nintendo Switch

LEGO Worlds Nintendo Switch Box Art

I get to hold the whole world in my hands. Well, I get to hold all of LEGO Worlds in my hands. LEGO worlds has come to the Nintendo Switch and I received a digital download of the game along with the DLC packs. Opinions are my own.

It was pretty easy to get into LEGO worlds and start playing. There are two modes of play: Adventure Mode and Sandbox Mode. In adventure mode your character goes through a series of tasks to learn how to use all of their tools in order to build awesome creations in the worlds. There are tools for painting bricks, copying bricks, discovering bricks and more. As you complete tasks in each world your character gains gold bricks and more experience towards the goal of Master Builder. The gold bricks also allow your character to unlock and explore new worlds.

As you explore these new worlds you can discover different models that you can put into your library and you can recall them for use later in the game. Sometimes they can be used to solve a puzzle and other times to help fight bad guys or make a quick getaway. The discovery tool will be one of your most used tools in the game.

After discovery you’ll learn copy and also build and color. You can make your creations however detailed you want and then color them your favorite colors and themes. I have only gotten to the third world so far. That is the classic space world and so I hop all around the moon in search of items that the various spacemen are looking for. I have not done enough building yet and that is probably what I am most weak in. I will continue to play and become that Master Builder. Continue reading Review: LEGO Worlds for the Nintendo Switch
