This video is a live stream of the game Valor Mortis, where the streamer navigates through a mining area, encounters enemies, and discusses various topics including UPS systems, controller versus keyboard and mouse preferences, and upcoming game plans. The stream also includes a narrative interlude and ends with a farewell to viewers.
The stream begins with the streamer apologizing for a delay caused by a power outage. A UPS failed during a power company visit, leading to technical issues and a new UPS order.
The streamer explains that the cost of a UPS is related to the power load it supports. A cheaper UPS (around $400) is sufficient if the power draw is low, but it must support two computers and peripherals.
The streamer explains why they use keyboard and mouse for precision aiming in games like Valor Mortis, preferring a controller for third-person action games like Elden Ring or Dark Souls, but not for aiming.
The streamer comments on having to travel far to retrieve their corpse, suggesting they missed a shortcut in the level.
The streamer discusses a ferrofluid flask that provides temporary additional health, useful for bosses, and wonders about its duration.
The streamer announces they will finish Valor Mortis and Castlevania before starting Enshrouded, to give Enshrouded full days of play without other game commitments.
A narrative segment plays, describing the wanderer's journey and the support of the community, emphasizing hope and endurance.
The streamer accidentally hits the wrong button for grenades, leading to a humorous moment, and continues exploring.
The stream wraps up with the streamer thanking viewers, outlining the plan to finish current games before starting Enshrouded, and encouraging viewers to play Enshrouded over the weekend to avoid spoilers.

25:47[00:16] I'm going to give it a second to get all caught up here. Saved? Saved. Hooray.
[00:37] go. There we go. Okay. I am so sorry about that, guys. So basically what happened is uh apparently there was some uh some some
[00:50] work that they that they were supposed to do a while ago on our house uh from the power company, the power guys. And so they came out today and quick do this thing to your power?" And I was like, "Yeah, sure." I didn't
[01:03] off the power. That's okay. Whatever. Um so they did that. And what's normally supposed to happen is they turn off the power. My uh UPS's kick in.
[01:16] And then my generator kicks in. And we're good. And we're good. Um what happened is they did the power.
[01:32] Immediately one of my UPS's failed. It was the one for my streaming machine.
[01:46] Do the work, which took about 5 minutes. Turn back on the power. At that point I ordered a new UPS. And then had to sit here for the next 10 times and constantly had problems as updates
[02:00] So, I am sorry about that. That was all a little uh But, yeah, unfortunately, I don't have much longer today, but we're going to get as much done as we can.
[02:55] >> I knew there was going to be a nasty in here. Damn it. So, we can get rounds that freeze the enemy at range?
[03:09] enemy at range? All right.
[03:37] Just being near those things hurts, please. I guess I can set that one on fire, I guess.
[04:07] expensive. I just got one that's about 400. Um but it it needs to not only be good, but it's supporting uh two two different computers that need to stay on the full time and a couple peripherals. So, it the UPS that you get does not
[04:22] The cost of the UPS that you get usually The cost of the UPS that you get usually is related to like how much is related to like how much power you're trying to put on it.
[04:35] don't put a lot of power on it, you don't need a beefy UPS. It's just not don't need a beefy UPS. It's just not what you need.
[04:48] Okay, we came this way and then we went through there. Okay, we're good.
[05:01] That's going to be a whole ass thing. What What What else is up here? Is there go? See where this goes. Is this a shortcut? [ __ ]
[05:17] Yep. Mining shaft key. Bro. This is to the door back here. Oh god.
[05:47] The elevators here got lots of little secrets. Um All right, hold up.
[06:00] I wonder if we have to look under the elevators. We might. Was it this way? Must have been this way.
[06:12] Bro, you got this. There you go, nice dude. Pure blade material two, excellent. That's the good stuff.
[06:46] Uh-oh. Not going under. Um
[07:06] their big brothers. Okay. That worked. Oh my god, it did. Oh, I just squished someone. I am so sorry.
[07:18] That was on me. That was my bust. Okay.
[07:41] Um Let's do it.
[08:31] one of these areas? Get through here.
[08:47] look up and he's just going to be chilling there.
[09:10] Oh god. Oh god. Oh god. Nope.
[09:45] That is right. What is that? Oh, it's a range thing is what it looks like. Get this first.
[10:12] mouse when Souls-like games are always played with a controller. Of course, that's a great question. And I will show you exactly why I use a keyboard and mouse right
[10:24] That's why. If a game ever requires me to precision aim anything I'd rather use a mouse and keyboard than a controller. I I do not like aiming with a
[10:39] controller. That's not what I'm good at. It's not my history. It's not my skill So that's that's why we're there. If it did game, I would have been using a controller.
[10:51] Uh well, yeah, I say that, but whenever I play first-person games, I tend to aim more, if that makes sense. Like, I'm fine I'm fine using a controller. I love using a I prefer using a controller
[11:05] if it's like a third-person action game. Like Elden Ring or Dark Souls you know, like if if I see my character and I don't really have to aim much controller. Uh or if I'm driving a car, stuff like that. But if there's ever
[11:19] like if I ever want precision movement like this if I ever want snap movement like to aim and fire quickly question. No question.
[11:33] so let's keep moving. Uh we came down here and we opened up Uh we came down here and we opened up that door.
[11:47] We got to figure this part out. Here we go. >> Boom. Hell yeah.
[13:22] his back is something we can break. The other guy doesn't have that.
[13:37] Well, I don't know if that worked, but I mean it worked, so.
[14:08] you were falling. I was like, "What are you doing?" Okay. What are you doing?
[14:31] >> The saddest of faces. The saddest of faces, Kat.
[14:47] And I just didn't. I'm sorry, game. I feel like I should apologize. Oh, god.
[15:24] know we're enemies, but you deserve better. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. better. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Um that's my fault.
[15:52] That's all right. Um let's see.
[16:09] way than this. this. Um
[17:14] >> [groaning] [screaming] >> No. >> [groaning]
[17:31] I don't think I've ever had to travel this far to get my corpse. I'm I'm guessing we missed a shortcut somewhere.
[17:58] Maybe is one of these a shortcut? No, this is What is this? We got two different elevators that way.
[18:27] We went this way first. Then we jumped here. right over there, isn't there? Probably what it is.
[18:53] That is so much better. Okay.
[19:05] >> No map in this game? >> Nope.
[19:17] >> Oh well, screwed that up in five seconds.
[19:45] I was going to say, you're dead. You you you you walking dead, bro.
[19:58] game. Oh my god. That was like that is just it's so wonderful that does not kill you. So wonderful.
[20:32] Distilled transmutation material. That sounds fun.
[21:16] I still need to go up and take the thing up there.
[21:55] ferrofluid flask into temporary additional health. for bosses. I wonder how I wonder if the health like
[22:09] I wonder how I wonder if the health like lasts. Phil says, "How's your day been going?" Great, dude. It's been awesome. I had a but that worked itself out and things are sitting pretty right now.
[22:24] are sitting pretty right now. And I've been loving this game, so.
[22:50] the beginning. Perfect. I wanted to make sure that we didn't miss this area. Where does this go? You are definitely alive. I'm going to stab you.
[23:06] Yeah. Sure.
[23:35] Now, which way is the way forward? I think that way maybe.
[24:03] Yes. Yes. All right, things are looking good. Dude. Cool music.
[24:23] We did miss a shortcut. There were definitely two shortcut doors up there.
[24:42] May have to go back there later and poke around a little more. >> Well, for a mine, this seems a rather melodious soundtrack.
[25:03] I love it. Oh god. tomorrow. >> [laughter] you had as much fun as we did. This has been awesome playing this game. Um I'll
[25:19] play some more Oh, is chat not working? and all the power outage and stuff. Anyway, um Oh, there it goes. Awesome.
[25:31] oh, okay. So, for everyone that knows, here I'm going to say it again cuz we're at the end of the stream now. So, we are not doing Enshrouded tomorrow. I we don't have access uh to Enshrouded until later in the day and I already
[25:47] have Castlevania stuff at 12:00 tomorrow. So, I have decided I have decided after really considering it, we are going to finish Valo Valor Mortis
[26:00] or Castlevania before we start Enshrouded. When we start Enshrouded, I want to give it multiple full days. I want to give it just full days where we just get lost in the game and enjoy ourselves. No other
[26:14] games to deal with, no pressing deadlines, nothing. So, what we're going to do is I'm probably going to spend tomorrow, Saturday, and Sunday finishing Valor Mortis and playing as much Castlevania as I want to
[26:27] and then we're going to boom go right into Enshrouded. So, basically, I don't I don't want to do another Valheim where I kind of constantly have this thing in to finish this quick. There's more games coming. You got to finish this quick."
[26:40] I'm doing out of the way and then we can any big releases next week that I want and then we'll just play that into Steam Next Fest and uh we'll have Embervale EA
[26:53] we'll have lots to do. But anyway, that's what we're doing. So, tomorrow, but I hope you have fun tomorrow starting Enshrouded. And this if you want to play Enshrouded yourself and not get spoiled by any cool tech
[27:06] stuff uh or anything like that, then um you can play Enshrouded over the weekend, and when I start playing probably early next week, it'll be nothing you haven't seen except my reactions to it cuz I barely played
[27:19] All right, guys. Thank you so much for doing the thing today. I really you are around the globe. I'm going to kick you over to Pasco right now, and I will see you guys later for more fun and games. Have a good one.
[27:32] for more fun and games. Have a good one. Bye-bye.
