Hey everyone, a while back Kresh and I played through the Dark Pictures Anthology series over on our Twitch channel starting with Man of Medan. Those videos are now over on YouTube, and here on the blog for your viewing pleasure. We had a lot of fun playing it, and hopefully you’ll have a lot of fun watching. This is a two part series. Enjoy.
Man of Medan is a survival horror video game that was released in 2019. The game was developed by Supermassive Games and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. The game contains violence and gore, replete with paranormal horror elements and occasional “jump scares”. This is not a game aimed at young children, and viewer discretion is advised.

Hey everyone, it’s Kernook here. Kreshenne and I decided to do a “Let’s Play”, and hopefully you’ll join us on the journey. Starfield is an action role-playing game with a science fiction flair. The game was developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. It was announced during Bethesda’s E3 presentation back in 2018, and officially released on September 6, 2023. For the purpose of our “Let’s Play”, we got the game on Steam, and will be playing on a Windows PC.
The playlist of videos can be found on our YouTube channel as we upload and release them, so please consider following us there for more content. As always, we also play games on Twitch, so come by and say hello. We’d love to see you there.

Hey everyone, it’s time for another set of gameplay videos. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time probably doesn’t need an introduction, chances are good that you’ve heard of it. The game was first released on the Nintendo 64 back in November of 1998.
The main protagonist, Link, will be going on an adventure through time to defeat the evil King known as Ganondorf to save the people of the magical land Hyrule. He’ll end up meeting plenty of friends along the way, including his companion fairy Navi.
The titular character of the game, Zelda, only plays a supporting role. This princess is no little wallflower though, that’s for sure. As Link continues on in his quest, Zelda and the annoyance we all know as Navi will continue to aid Link in countless ways. With three spiritual stones to collect as “child Link” and six unique Medallions to collect as “adult Link”, there’s plenty of gameplay content to enjoy.
Our gameplay footage is in long-play format, and it is almost twenty-four hours long. This is a completed 100% play-through, with all items and heart pieces collected.
We’re playing the original game in the above videos, but that’s not all this wonderful franchise has to offer. That’s right, the Nintendo 64 release was not the only version of the game. Later iterations included The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of TimeMaster Quest for the Nintendo Gamecube in 2002, which promised a much more challenging experience for fans of the original.
With enemies that hit harder and altered dungeon designs, the Master Quest version was a very welcome entry to the franchise as a whole. The puzzles were not the same though, and this new game proved to be fairly unforgiving as a result. Even so, any well-practiced Ocarina of Time fan should play “Master Quest” at least once, if they haven’t already.
A complete graphical upgrade known as The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D released in June of 2011 for the Nintendo 3DS. While there are some minor gameplay differences (such as the ability to use the touch screen to play the songs) the game stays true to the original, the story wasn’t changed.
The gameplay video content was provided by Ebby, of The Demented Ferrets, and the blog content was provided by Kernook… we hope you enjoyed it! See you next time, don’t forget to follow us on our social media and support our content!

Hey Everyone, it’s Kernook here, bringing you more Final Fantasy XIV gameplay from Kresh and Kernook. More story line questing, and general nonsense build up the bulk of the stream, all around it was a good time.
Our misadventure continues over on our Twitch channel, and you should make sure to follow us there if you want watch us play the game live, instead of getting VOD updates after the fact. We play all kinds of games, of course. It’s worth it to check us out if you enjoy gameplay content.
Our trusty red Chocobo, which I call Flufflebutt, carries us around from place to place as we deal with all of the story related quests involved in this early section of the game. Overall, it was a day filled with lots of traveling and cut scenes.
We enter into The Thousand Maws of Toto-Rak, which has been nicely streamlined since I was last inside of it. Ideally, this instance is for those between the levels of 24-27, but with how quickly you level these days, it’s easy to outpace it. We certainly have. Since it is tied to the main story, it can’t be bypassed.
I manage to heal through it with very few incidents attached, and All in all, it is a simple story heavy day, with promises of more havoc next time.
Please don’t forget to follow the blog for more content like this, and follow us onTwitch to join us when we go live.

In any case, this is part 3 of it for your enjoyment.
The level grinds and havoc continues as we move forward in story quests. Kresh and I spend our time in the Thanalan region, collecting corpses for burial, befriending goblins, and doing a few required instances.
The beastmen in the area are up to no good again as they prepare to summon a primal. They play a dominant role in this particular section of story quests both as friends and as enemies.
Kresh and Kerns Brand New Disaster Through Eorzea: Part 3
As far as duties are concerned, we enter into Halatali, a level 20 instance. This twisting labyrinthine cavern has been massively nerfed, making it more streamlined and easier to navigate. Completion was decently quick. After that, it’s into The Bowl of Embers to battle Ifrit.
More story line quests and finally collecting our mounts round out the stream, and at the end of the day all’s well that ends well. We didn’t get as much done as we wanted, but that’s what happens when you’re casually playing around and wandering into a bit of trouble, as we certainly did.
The good thing is that with mounts, the grinding will now go a bit faster, thankfully, and we’re looking forward to it.

Hey everyone, it’s Kern here, coming to you with a gameplay post. Recently we’ve been working through the Tomb Raider reboot series over on our Twitch channel. This is a series that we’ve been meaning to get to for a while now, and I’m glad to say we finally have.
Tomb Raider released in 2013 as an action-adventure title. The game was developed by Crystal Dynamics and published by Square Enix. Technically, it is the tenth main series title in the Tomb Raider franchise. More importantly though, this game is a reboot of the series, and the first within the “Survivor” trilogy.
These days almost anyone can get their hands on this wonderful series. Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 saw the first releases of the game. Later it would be ported over to a wide variety of other consoles as well. An updated definitive addition was also released later on, which includes updated graphics and all of the DLC.
This particular play-through was done via live-stream in three separate parts. Later, like always, we put it up on YouTube. If you want to see us play these kinds of games live, please be sure to follow us on our Twitch account and make sure you have notifications on.
Obviously, you’ll play as an inexperienced Lara Croft, as this is her origin story. Between high impact action-adventure sequences, quick time events, and gritty tomb raiding, you’ll have plenty to do.
Exploration, and survival mechanics are the names of the game here. You’ll be hunting for food, and collecting items in order to improve your weaponry. You’ll inevitably traverse between save areas (camps) that allow you further insight into Lara’s mind. There’s a lot of deeper content there, but there’s also just a lot Lara’s jumbled rambling too. She’s a tough-as-nails young woman, but she’s also fairly sentimental.
As you make your way across the island using footpaths and zip-lines the environment itself will test your skills as a player. The terrain is uneven and often treacherous. The game wishes to provide a high octane experience to the player and often succeeds.
As a possible downside, there’s a decent number of quick-time events, so take that as you will. The reboot series has just a little bit more grit than its older iterations, and a distinct lack of tombs compared to older iterations as well. That might be a downside for old fans, but there is a good story here that makes up for it.
I’d highly suggest you play the game yourself if any of that sounds interesting to you. Or, if you happen to be a fan of the franchise and don’t wish to play it yourself, at least watch the gameplay footage because this particular game is not one that you’ll want to pass up.

Hey everyone, it’s Kernook here. Today I’m bringing to you another gameplay post. This time we’re diving deep into the realm of survival horror with Resident Evil 3: Nemesis. This particular play-through was done using the PC port of the game that came out on 2000. Although, it should be noted that the original game was released back on the PlayStationback in 1999.
At the start of the game, series mainstay Jill Valentine recounts the events of the first game which was Resident Evil (1996). This was also the first time she appeared as a playable character.
If you haven’t seen the other gameplay and reviews that we’ve covered for the Resident Evil series up to this point, you can find them here: All Things Resident Evil
As Jill explains, when the team returned to report what they’d seen at the mansion, the truth wasn’t received well. Due to the grievous mishandling of information, and conspiratorial cover-ups thanks to the jerks at Umbrella, she’s in danger once again. The dangerous T-virus has spread now, and it runs rampant in the heart of the city. Now she must survive the hordes of zombies all over again.
Umbrella wasn’t going to go down without a fight. They had a new master plan. The pharmaceutical company gone wrong unleashes a new bio-weapon they’ve been working on. This one is intelligent and deadly. Releasing it into the city streets, they’ve given this abomination one single mission. To eradicate remaining S.T.A.R.S. team members, and this creature will prove to be Jill’s most dangerous opponent yet.
This is without a doubt my favorite game of the older generation. I cover more about my love for this particular title in my review of it. If you want more information about it, you should check there.
In short, if you’ve played aResident Evilgame from this older era then you know just about what to expect here.
There is one thing I should mention though. I covered this in my review of the game as well, but Resident Evil 3: Nemesis makes the entire Resident Evil lore a bit messy thematically. Some parts take place before the events of Resident Evil 2. Meanwhile, others take place during the events of the second game, and some take place after the events of it.
This makes the game stand as a strange narrative window into almost all of the early Resident Evil plot lines. This game also features branching narratives and choices that will determine the path you take in the game. While this offers gamers a chance to replay the game, you can’t argue that it does make the lore of the wider universe just a little bit confusing from a timeline perspective.
For the average gamer though, this really shouldn’t be too big of an issue, and you’ll likely enjoy the game if you’re already a fan of the franchise.

Hey everyone, it’s Kern here, back with another gameplay video. This time we’re finishing off the Spyro Reignited Trilogy. Want to watch the other games first?
As you can probably guess, the third and final game in this three part series is named Spyro: Year of the Dragon. Like the other two games that preceded it, the game was developed by Insomniac Games and published bySony Computer Entertainment. Insomniac would later develop Ratchet & Clank for the PlayStation 2.
This particular rendition is from the Spyro Reignited Trilogy, released for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in November 2018. Later in 2019, Microsoft Windows and Nintendo Switch would get their own versions as well.
Like all games in the franchise, this one is a platformer. This time around Spyro and his buddies are celebrating the rare “Year of the Dragon”. According to them, this special occasion takes place when new dragon eggs are brought to the realm. You know how this goes. A big baddie comes to crash the party and the eggs are stolen. Spyro and his friends have to go and save the eggs.
If you’ve played a Spyro game before then you know what to expect here. Spyro:Year of the Dragon doesn’t make any huge changes to the general standard formula of its predecessors. Fly, charge enemies, breathe fire, Spyro is a dragon after all.
With bright world, mini-games, and Spyro’s signature style this is a wonderful game for kids and adults alike. I’d be remiss if I didn’t say that it suits family friendly fun. For that alone it belongs in any gaming household that may have kids around. If platformers are your style, this is a good one.

Hey everyone, it’s Kernook here. The Demented Ferrets are finally coming to you today with gameplay of Resident Evil 2. This is a long play run-through of the Clair A/Leon B story.
Resident Evil 2 takes place about two months after the events at the mansion. The surviving S.T.A.R.S. members have done all they can, but the city can’t be saved. It’s come down with a bit of an infestation, and these buggers mean business. No exterminators are going to get rid of this viral mess.
Zombies have overtaken the city. Most of the residents are doomed to die in this hell, but if you’re lucky you’ll survive. You get to play as one of two characters.
The first is Leon Kennedy, a rookie police officer suffering his first day on the job. Today is just not a good day for him at all. The Second is Claire Redfield, a young woman in search of her older brother, Chris Redfield of the first game. To see the full game, you’ll have to play both of them.
I’ve done a proper review of the game, so if you want an in depth review, you should really check that out.
As a cursory overview though, if you’ve played a Resident Evil game before, then you know exactly what you’ll find here. There’s puzzle solving and item management galore. You’ll want to conserve ammo since the good bullets and weaponry will always be in short supply.
Zombies run rampant, along with several other monster types. Let’s not forget about our good old friend from hell, “Mr. X” himself.
Honestly, I absolutely love the original Resident Evil 2. It’s not just the horror, it’s the heart. To me that defining factor makes this version of the game the definitive Resident Evil 2 experience. If you call yourself a fan of this series at all, you should play this version at least once.

Hey all, it’s Kern here. Kresh and I have been playing Final Fantasy XIV on our live streams. This is part 2 of our level grinds, joined by our friends for havoc and good time. Lots of laughter in this live stream.
In this particular stream we continue where we last left off. Before the stream, Kresh picked up a tank job and got it to the same level we ended off at. We want to be sure to stay around the same basic exp and level range if we can. From now on Kresh is playing a tank and I’m still playing a healer.
We finally escaped the low level zone of Gridania and the shrouds of forests that surround it… for now at least. We do 3 of the story related dungeons this time around and amass a few levels while we’re at it.
You should subscribe to our twitch so you can watch our streaming content live, but you can find the playlists on our Twitch and our YouTubechannels as well.
Kresh and Kern’s brand new disaster through Eorzea: Final Fantasy XIV part 2: A Misadventure Reborn
You’ll want to follow our twitch if you want to see things live when they happen.
After a few story line related missions we entered Sastasha, a level 15 dungeon that keeps the training wheels on more or less. It’s pirate themed. I was massively under geared at the time, since due to the streamlined leveling process I thought I’d hit 20 before we entered and I’d be allowed to equip the gear I’d purchased to prepare for that.
Almost immediately after that, it was time for The Tam-Tara Deepcroft a level 16 dungeon all about a subterranean crypt used as a resting place for rulers and nobles of Eorzea. Outside of a few rusty pulls, it goes fairly well enough.
Once we escaped that, we did more story missions. Before we knew it, were ready for the aptly named quest “Copper Hell” and therefore entered the next instance, Copperbell Mines. This is a level 17 dungeon that has been made much easier since the enemies have been weakened and the developers made the area easier. I still personally hate it though.
All in all, it was a good live stream and we put a nice dent into the three hours we played. We didn’t get to do more gaming over the weekend because Kresh went away on holiday, but once she returns we’ll be back with more misadventures for sure. See you next time.
