★ I am s l o w l y improving at performing venipunctures in class. I had 4 successful ones tonight and one that started but the vein was blown early into the draw, but it does not look like there will be any complications beyond a bruise in the area...phew. I still have over 15 venipunctures to go until I can take the certification test and I hope on Friday I won't have an unsuccessful draws...but I don't know. I'm not sure phlebotomy is going to be something I look to get employed in, but at least now I know a lot more about how it works which should help out in my field regardless.
★ I tried out PC Overwatch and it's basically the same as console Overwatch except my framerate fluctuates more and I'm really bad at just like, moving around with the WASD layout BUT my accuracy across heroes is up by like, 15%?!? I missed every single sleep dart I shot as Ana, though. And I was playing against the A.I.
Did a bunch of QP matches with my brother and sister tonight (on console) and I think I have a decent handle on Ashe. I feel like the hardest thing I run into right now is not being able to get the kill I need when I need it, because aiming can be squirrelly and repositioning to get better LOS isn't always an option, but that particular frustration is becoming less frequent. Getting value out of dynamite is also iffy--throwing it behind a barrier means you can't shoot it to detonate it early, and it's easy enough to walk out of its radius before it explodes--but I've been having better luck with that, too. I still don't know what to look for in terms of optimal ult use...B.O.B is pretty great at drawing aggro and mowing down slow-reacting players, but besides being a big shooty tank that disappears after a few seconds, I'm not sure what to do with him.
★ Still making my way through SCVI's single player stuff, the writing is uh. Pretty dull in a lot of spots and even in entire character stories? Kilik, Maxi and Xianghua were all pretty bare-bone plots about how the power of NPC friendship will help you in the dark times ahead. Taki's would have been more interesting if i could keep track of the like, 5 or 6 different organizations/people trying to take Mekki-maru from her...although some wanted her to re-seal Gel-o-Fury and some i think wanted to kill her just because??? This storyline was needlessly complicated.
In Libra of Souls my character left Maxi's crew (there isn't really a choice involved BOOOOOOO ) and I get to hang out with Mitsurugi, who is incredibly dumb. I'm not saying that I dislike the character (although, I've never had too much interest in him), it's that in SCVI there is a clear, concerted effort to portray Mitsu as the absolute stupidest character in the roster because....humor? It is, as the kids say, a weird flex but okay.
