100% agree with the in game comment that Phixfox is "the most wholesome streamer"! I came to this channel for my love of Heroes and stay for the wholesome chat. Keep up the great work Phixfox and keep being you!
It's such an important thing to talk about but it's hard to talk to our friends, brothers, and fathers about it. I mean well by the message and I hope it reaches the right people. Thanks so much for saying that it was on point, I am grateful for the feedback 👍👍 BTW, I couldn't help but notice the fox in your profile pic... I am a big fan :D
I was surprised to see that as well and was listening attentively. I feel it, as someone who chose to distance himself from friends and family in pursuit of ambition - I know firsthand what he’s saying about preparing for the storms of life which may be oncoming. Having few people to lean on in those times gave me perspective that it’s important to be there for the people who were there for you. To cherish your loved ones and look out for them where you can. I wouldn’t want to put any extra burden on a wonderful man like Phixfox, who already has a full plate of his own. We each have our own hands dealt in life, nothing wrong with sharing; but we can’t expect things to be taken care of for us. Just like in HoMM2,it is important to leave as little to chance as we possibly can - and increase the odds in our favour by investing our levels in the choices for the skills we need!
@@xkimo19 Well said and I appreciate all of your thoughts, I think you're spot on and that you've done that work to be ready for whatever comes next 👍👍☺
Another great stream, fantastic rollercoaster of a playthrough, glad I was able to catch it. I do have to say it though.. RISE CALLED IT!! AI AND YOUR COMPUTER ARE CONSPIRING AGAINST YOU!! Phix got foxed dirty, feels bad. XD Also appreciate the shout out at the end, mens mental health is a definite crisis in and of itself and more people need to speak up, reach out, and be there for a friend in need and it might not always show on the surface. A simple act like calling a friend to tell them you appreciate them in your life can make all the difference. I know when I get that call and someone takes that moment, I ride that high for a month or more, and yes, it does come back a hundred fold. It makes a difference, it really does. Anyway much love as always from Canada, mate! Hope you and yours are well, we're adopting our first baby in my family soon so I'll be an uncle :) Maybe next stream we can exchange notes on efficient dad napping and escaping diaper duty! P.S. Excited for a Vampy only playthrough if you decide to go through with it (or Phix vs Dad, Skeles only vs Vampy bois) Oh and a big congrats on the 500, to the mooooooon!
Let it be known, Rise totally did call it! 😂 We have found a new difficulty level above impossible and I am not sure if I am here for it or not 😅 I am so grateful that you are the kind of person that puts themselves in a helping position. I know that the work you do with those in your community matters to every single person you interact with, and I hope you never weary in well-doing ☺ OH MY GOODNESS AN UNCLE! Congrats! Remember to wear a suit and tie the first time you see your nephew, first impressions matter 😉😂 I will totally do some research on those topics haha Yes yes! I am to the point where I am wondering about playthroughs with others, how best to do it though is always the question! fheroes2 will eventually get their server up and running, but for now I am envisioning the lowest tech option to be emailing the save file back and forth with someone at the end of every turn 😄 I haven't had a ton of success with Game Ranger or other ways to create a fake LAN access, but it will be a great time to do challenges in the meantime :) Thanks for being a big part of the channel and for all the time you spend imparting your great energy! ☺
Thank you SO much for being there from the beginning! I have a plan in mind, so stay tuned because I want to give credit to those who found us early on! I always appreciate your time and comments, thanks for the great vibes and I hope your day/week/month/year go great ☺😋
HoMM2 is like a little patch of heaven that is untouched from the wild things that happen in the world! Happy to hear that this brings your blood pressure down, it (usually) does for me too 😉 Thanks so much for the support!
I really appreciate that! It sure helps that this map had a couple of real twists and turns, and the chat always brings the positive vibes :) Thanks for your time and letting me know this works for ya!
The problem with restarting computer - bluescreen, probably either RAM - check by some free tools the stability of it. Other possibility is some drivers. In that case, clean install of windows or restore will help.
Great points all around, and it's on my list of things that I should probably do. Turns out (if the last stream is any indication) that it WAS mostly overheating issues! I cracked open the laptop and found thermal paste that had mostly been evaporated or something (not well spread, not enough of it, and what was there wasn't doing anything anymore), and the next stream went flawlessly, including no more throttling that slowed down the game! It's early and your ideas are up next in case we have any more issues, but I am hoping we got a fix in :)

☺ Thank you from the bottom of my heart, and I hope you keep being you too :D Good vibes is the best course of action! 🥳
Awe, that bit at the end was real as hell. I had this on in the background and had to stop what i was doing to listen. Well said, phixfox
