While I was away

Hey guys! Merry Christma--....

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2016! Heh heh...

Yeah I'm late! Sorry for being away from the blog for a very long time..well here's an update!

I actually made an impromptu Christmas/Thank You video..and I was mumbling AND just talking away without any proper direction..I WAS NOT PREPARED! HAHA!

On Christmas le gf and I; and friends went for Karaoke at Teo Heng in Sunway Giza..we sang and laughed real hard! Haha..it was a fun day out..ended the day nomming with a "simple" dinner at Wong Kok which is also in Sunway Giza xD

Was also busy nomming around town for the new year..ooh ooh..and we watched Star Wars Episode VII! We both enjoyed the movie! I know many don't but I'm glad mostly did because we did too!

WARNING..FOOD PORN AHEAD!

Before the movie we went to grab some brunch at Food Foundry at Section 17 PJ..we were a little early so their famous Crepe selection was limited..VERY limited..there was only Vanilla! So we ended up getting a Tiramisu..

Le Tiramisu Cake...it's gooooooood

We then got a little hungry and decided to have brunch here..and we ordered Pan Seared Butter Fish with Mango and Japanese Salsa..and goodness me..we had no idea it'll taste so good..I'm drooling as I'm typing this! HAHAHA..the butter fish was tender and juicy! The salsa mix was so goooood..and the mash potato..the fragrance is something that hits home..

For dinner..we went to Palsaik 8-Color Pork BBQ..8 Colour as in 8 different marination per pork belly (75g)

Le GF and I took the RM128 set which was meant for 2-4 pax xD

It's recommended to start from Ginseng, Wine, Pine Leaves, Garlic, Herb, Curry, Miso Paste and ending with Hot (Spicy)

I find my favourite being Herb, Pine Leaves and Garlic..

Ginseng was quite mild..

Wine had a slight tinge of red wine at the end of each bite..

Pine Leaves has a very strong aroma which is delish!

Garlic is gooood even it was just plain garlic!

Herb is very similar to those "Garlic & Herb" spice bottles used for pasta..so it's DELISH! xD

Curry was very very mild for Asian standard xP

Miso Paste wasn't very appetising..and the miso aroma was again very mild!

Hot aka Spicy...the most disappointing of the lot..not even spicy

The set also comes with a huge bowl of seafood soup which was good! The banchan aka Korean side dish that came with this sat was very..boring..HAHAHA..per person was a bowl of salad and cucumber in spicy sauce..that's it!

NEXT..ONTO my Youtube videos!

Remember the mic I bought from my previous blog post? I've started using and the Audio Log above was my first use of it..and all my other videos since then is using the new mic..let me know what you think!

Check out my Youtube Channel!

I AM STILL ALIVEEEEE

I AM STILL HERE LAAAAAA!

Well..it's more like I've been tied up at work..being the one that has to handle sales and products preparation can be stressful

At the same time trying to find time to play games and enjoy it..and not just playing games to record

I've been having issues with the LGP..as my buddy from the BunnyTeam.net mentioned..I am having a headache configuring my mic to record my commentary!

The Avermedia Live Gamer Portable records the game audio just fine..it's the mic that's the issue..the LGP has an Audio-in and it not meant for a mic..once I enter ReCentral..under the Audio Settings..I change the Audio-in option from HDMI to Audio-in..it will only record my mic and not the game audio..gaaahhh

So then I tried..getting a 3.5mm female-female adapter..which then connects to a 3.5mm Male to 2 x 3.5mm female adapter..in which one jack will go directly into my USB soundcard which ends up with my PS4..and the second jack goes into my PC..works kinda like a splitter of some sort..

I test run playing Uncharted 4 Multiplayer Open Beta to test record using the LGP for the first time..and maaaaaan..I got good video quality..and my voice? Barely audible! It's like I'm not even there! Geeeee..wasted 1 and half hour of recording! (I played badly in that session anyway..and got disconnected more than 5 times..so yeah)

To those audiophiles out there..don't come screaming at me! I'm just doing it the cheap way..and it's not the right way..I know xP

So here's the problem..my mic is super soft even at 100% recording. I then boost it 10db..20db..30db..and oh gawwwwwd..there's this loud long beep throughout the recording..ANNNDD..the quality is baaaaaaad..

Consulted my buddy - Strifemare; who does music..and ask about it..he told me the issue is that the audio from the mic is being split..and that causes the volume to split as well..

As for the long loud beep? It could be an interference coming from either the PC or PS4/USB Soundcard..he mentioned one way to stop it is to get a diode that forces the audio to go only 1 way..

I'm like - OH NOESSSSSS..but I found a software mixer prior to his reply..Voicemeeter..and I'm gonna go home to try out something..

I'm hoping that Voicemeeter will take my mic input..and split it as it allows for 2 physical output and 1 virtual output..using the 2 physical output..I'm planning to take the 2nd output to push the mic audio through one of the unused motherboard sound port..which then using a 3.5mm male-male cable into my controller..as a mean to communicate with my party chat members..

Hope this works..

I've had a few more video uploaded too in between this post and previous posts..can check it out at my Youtube Channel

I finally played a horror game..it was just a demo though..but gawwwwwwddddd..it was creeeepy..they got the ambient right though! It's Song of Horror..watch it here:

I've also recently purchased Minecraft..I've heard loads of story and watched quite alot of videos..but I'm still clueless on what to do and how to survive..

I've played only about 30 mins in..need to explore more! Will upload more soon! Bear with me!

What else? Destiny? I've completed the Vanilla Destiny's main story..I know there are a bunch of side quests..but I'm just breezing through to get a walkthrough video up and running..hopefully you guys can just use it as a refresher hehehe..next would be the 3 expansions.. The Dark Below, The House of Wolves and The Taken King..

The guys at BunnyTeam has been bugging me to join their raids and other modes..and I've yet to join them in any single one..BAHAHAHA..sorry-lah guys! xP

Need to finish Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection too! Hahahhaa..too many gameessssssssss

Anyway..thanks for dropping by! Will be posting more on my Facebook Page and Twitter..do like my Facebook Page and Follow me on Twitter to get updates!

I think there'll be a huge gap between videos for now! HAhahahahah!

More Live Streaming..well..it was yesterday

I put up a post saying I was gonna do a live stream yesterday (18th November)..and I did!

I still find talking to myself awkward..but it isn't as awkward as my initial live stream...I've been building up some hype in myself to get ready for the streaming..getting in the zone laaaaa..hahaha

Although I've been doing that at work..WHILE working..I still wasn't sure how it'll turn out..but I gave it a go anyway..never try never know right? YOL- Okay..I don't want to go there lol

There was some connection issue at the end..almost at the 49th minute onwards..I noticed on my Youtube Control Centre that my streaming was dropping in quality..and it kinda screw up the final part of the video..

I had to actually defend Ghost while he did his thing with the transmitter..so if you're watching the video..bear with my random jibberish xD

Away for the weekend!

Was away for the weekend. Went back to le gf's home at Frasers Hill, Pahang!

There's a few get-away hills/highlands in Malaysia, and the famous ones are Genting Highland, Cameron Highland and Frasers Hill.

My personal favourite, Frasers and Cameron. These two offer the best relaxation and tranquility.

But the best for relaxation? Definitely Frasers. You're tucked away peacefully away from all the hectic tourism of the other 2 spots. Frasers take away most entertainment and lets you be at peace with yourself as well as with nature

Been returning to le gf's parent's home in Frasers so frequent and I'm enjoying every moment of it. To be able to walk from home to the town without any worry of air pollution (except the last one due to the haze) as well as enjoying the cold breeze...maaaaaan..that's just something hard to describe.

And when it's really cold..just have a cup of nice hot English tea while sitting at the front porch..spacing out..hearing the birds chirp..watching the clouds go over the mountains..it's heavenly..really..maybe it's just the age catching up =s

Le gf dad is also an awesome cook! On Saturday he cooked up awesome pork curry for dinner! Earlier, during afternoon tea..le gf's parents made "Bombe Alaska"..without the fire and alcohol though haha

Photos by le gf

After dinner we drove into town and there was a slight drizzle..and it was super chilly! We stopped by the local cafe and had ginger-black-tea (Teh-O Halia) while sitting at the walk way of the cafe. Cold breeze and hot ginger tea..oh so awesome!

We ended the day slacking and playin Zenonia S on our mobile phones..yeah..we still can't get rid of our phone addiction =s

Woke up Sunday and Uncle was already preparing breakfast, fried bihun (vermicelli)! Had some curry left over from dinner, and mixed it up with the bihun..oh so savory! I had 2 plates!

After stuffing ourself silly..we went for a walk to town..the morning breeze and air is so refreshing. We spaced out for abit and then just sat by a chair overlooking a portion of the mountains/hills.

Walked back home and packed our stuff and got ready to leave back to KL..having withdrawals already! T__T

On the way home, stopped by Impulse Sunway and gotten myself a copy of Destiny: The Taken King Legendary Edition (includes Destiny and 2 expansions).

I tried another live stream while TRYING to commentate the game..MAN it felt awkward! Watch it here:

Stopped the live stream and then played a while longer after that...haha..this Youtube thing requires more confidence in myself..it's definitely a good platform though..as I am yet confident to actually show my face haha! =P

Please do drop by my Youtube Channel and subscribe! I WILL improve over time...I'm still using my Siberia headset to record my voice thus the quality as if it's muffled. Can't afford those funky mics you see used by other Youtubers.. =P

Will try to record my gameplay using PS' video sharing. Need to tweak along with recording my voice
