00:11:45.200 --> 00:11:48.919
it's exciting. Thanks for streaming it. Uh huh, yeah, I think

152
00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:54.519
we're live on twitch that's right here, goddamn right you are. We appreciate

153
00:11:54.559 --> 00:11:56.039
that. I'm gonna go check the
calculator and see how much it costume.

154
00:11:56.679 --> 00:12:01.320
This show is the Mixer exclusive.
Yeah, that's right. We're beamed up

155
00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:03.639
pro please. I wish they'll use
the original. We're knocking them down,

156
00:12:03.639 --> 00:12:05.879
they're dead and we're on to the
next one. Well, what are you

157
00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:11.519
gonna do with this kiddie letter?
I don't have a cat. Yeah that

158
00:12:11.600 --> 00:12:16.919
was an unfort Yeah, they didn't
like that. I like dogs, Yeah,

159
00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:22.559
it's all right. I like you. I like your dog specifically,

160
00:12:22.559 --> 00:12:26.639
it's thank you. My dog is
really cool. Yeah. Yeah. So

161
00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:30.120
how is like twitch like showing up
here for or did you just come into

162
00:12:30.159 --> 00:12:35.080
town on your own? I showed
up specifically, uh, to support creators

163
00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:37.279
who are here, because it's really
we've talked about this actually, like Vinne

164
00:12:37.279 --> 00:12:41.240
and I talked about this a lot, where like ten years ago or whatever,

165
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:46.360
you could not get into E three
without significant badge credentials and just a

166
00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:50.679
heap amount of technology that was very
difficult to come by. Now anyone can

167
00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:54.639
co stream these and it's not as
necessary to have all these fancy things,

168
00:12:54.879 --> 00:12:58.399
so you can actually just stream at
home. So often we don't really show

169
00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:01.200
up at all. We want to
make sure people can just go stream at

170
00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:05.360
home. But this is such a
special event in person where you get to

171
00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:09.519
have hands on games and see other
people in the industry. And there's nothing

172
00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:13.960
better than humanizing games. We play
them, we review them, we talk

173
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:16.240
about them, but how often do
we see the human that makes them and

174
00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:20.279
how much they care about it.
So that's why it's really important to show

175
00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:24.399
up. I'm really grateful that you
did this. It absolutely justified my trip

176
00:13:24.440 --> 00:13:26.240
to be here. Oh good,
and I also just get to hang out

177
00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:28.919
with a bunch of other streamers here
are here too, Yeah, it is

178
00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:33.519
Does this event like begin to make
sense more for twitch or less for Twitch?

179
00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:37.000
Over time? Like, are you
guys like wish you could be more

180
00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:41.120
involved in any way? We're passive
supporters. I think that there is room

181
00:13:41.720 --> 00:13:46.200
to be here in a larger capacity. We used to come in droves like

182
00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:52.200
everyone did, and we would sell
a big event. That is harder to

183
00:13:52.279 --> 00:13:56.919
do now, But I think there
is a world in which we would love

184
00:13:56.000 --> 00:14:00.919
to basically sell like big events with
lots of creators and have a huge event

185
00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:03.679
here. So I would love to
do that, but it hasn't really been.

186
00:14:05.240 --> 00:14:07.279
I think everybody's still fleshing it out
with all the stuff that's going on.

187
00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:11.519
I mean everybody's piecemealed out. There's
you know, the there's the IGN

188
00:14:11.679 --> 00:14:16.639
component, there's Live, the Microsoft
event is like branched off. So there's

189
00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:18.720
like a lot of different places.
Where are you supposed to be? What

190
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:22.480
given time did anyone go to IG
in life by actually met? I know

191
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:26.279
you had roady three days straight?
Yeah? Yeah? How was it great

192
00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:28.679
for me? I was? If
I can pim something real quick, I

193
00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:31.960
we're at least let me know.
I we're atting. Old Games had a

194
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:35.720
community, We've been showed up to
New Games fine, new publisher of indie

195
00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:39.159
games. Yes, chain Staff,
thank you. I'm doing the job for

196
00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:45.159
me. So we have two games. Air Deamons for a top down action

197
00:14:45.279 --> 00:14:48.279
horror rogue like Spybrus sci fi her
movies at the eighties like The Thing,

198
00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:52.279
The Fly and the Blob, and
then Chain Staff is a crazy fun action

199
00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:56.559
platformer side scroller contra like very cool. You have an alien on your head

200
00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:00.360
and use a crazy alien staff to
beat aliens you have taken up in the

201
00:15:00.399 --> 00:15:03.840
earth. That's the end of my
elevator pitch. But I've said these words

202
00:15:03.840 --> 00:15:05.080
one hundred times this weekend. So
yeah, I was on IG and Life

203
00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:09.840
for three days. I've seen nothing
else from anything, no trailers. I

204
00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:13.240
didn't watch the SGF. I was
at a booth. Well it was fun.

205
00:15:13.279 --> 00:15:16.159
Your booth was was at i GM
Live? How was it was it

206
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:18.200
like when you get in? Like
I heard? There were quite a few

207
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:20.279
people there. Yeah, it was
fun. It was a lot of kids,

208
00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:22.600
a lot of families coming through,
a lot of people really interested in

209
00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:28.159
running on playing games. Dogs were
there. Okay, okay, I had

210
00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:31.519
a good time. How many dogs
did you pet? I petted at least

211
00:15:31.559 --> 00:15:35.120
three. A lot of them were
service dogs, but there was one the

212
00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:39.679
last day. Checked my Twitter.
He's adorable. But yeah, what was

213
00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:41.720
his name? I didn't get his
name unforec but I make him all up

214
00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:45.639
in my head. He didn't speak
English. Yeah, yeah, it was.

215
00:15:45.720 --> 00:15:48.279
It was really good. It was
our first year of APE. They've

216
00:15:48.279 --> 00:15:50.120
already announced it set next to their
coming back next year, so we're got

217
00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:54.759
a partner. We were on stage
shooing a demo and we had the booth

218
00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:56.720
and people come by and have a
great time. So it was it was

219
00:15:56.720 --> 00:15:58.519
a fun show. Excellent. Yeah, you got so. You said you're

220
00:15:58.519 --> 00:16:02.000
gonna probably back next year doing I
g in Live as well, or what

221
00:16:02.120 --> 00:16:04.080
we are looking into a lot of
events over the next few years. We're

222
00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:10.240
gonna announce that at a future time
Jeff, Excellent, trying to get a

223
00:16:10.279 --> 00:16:15.720
scoop that we were we're we're we're
looking into a lot of things. Patrick,

224
00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:21.519
what happened to this guy? It's
probably making more money than we are.

225
00:16:21.639 --> 00:16:27.279
So yeah, absolutely that geheld of
money here. Patrick, How you

226
00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:33.679
doing? I'm great remap you had
another Giant Bomb spin off? Just a

227
00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:40.360
it's uh first anniversary and for one
more year, I am not a fraud.

228
00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:45.320
We can we work on that next
year workshop at see if people finally

229
00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:48.080
discover what's been true all along.
But no, it's been it's been good.

230
00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:51.960
Uh you know. I I alsort
to point out Bradman are very healthy

231
00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:56.600
decision. Last night, I just
uh, we we were going back to

232
00:16:56.639 --> 00:17:00.200
the j W and he walks in. He's like, dam I'm gonna get

233
00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:03.119
a beer and I was like,
you could, you could we could do

234
00:17:03.160 --> 00:17:07.279
that together? And he looked at
me and he said, I'm gonna go

235
00:17:07.400 --> 00:17:11.039
home. Yeah, And I didn't
ranched to get a round of applause for

236
00:17:11.119 --> 00:17:17.599
going home. Yeah, kind of
what the Tae marryot is. This is

237
00:17:17.640 --> 00:17:19.319
where the press people will kind of
hang out and a lot of industry people,

238
00:17:19.400 --> 00:17:22.000
right, yeah, yeah, it's
it's it's right across from where the

239
00:17:22.200 --> 00:17:25.319
you know, the L A c
C. The convention center, and so

240
00:17:25.480 --> 00:17:27.960
it would just happen to be the
sort of place that a lot of people

241
00:17:29.000 --> 00:17:32.440
would end up either like walking through
because it was convenient to go pick up

242
00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:34.599
a cab. Lots of beating industry
people stayed there. It's like the gutter

243
00:17:34.640 --> 00:17:40.319
for drain water. It's just we
just gathered there. Yeah yeah, yeah,

244
00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:42.759
and it you know, it's if
you haven't you know, that's the

245
00:17:42.839 --> 00:17:47.519
kind of place where it's like I
should, I should go home, But

246
00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:51.279
what if I want to make a
mistake? Yeah, and I what if

247
00:17:51.319 --> 00:17:53.359
I want to make a couple of
them? Then you go there. But

248
00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:57.680
it's also it's the the guarrant Like
these days, I don't go to a

249
00:17:57.720 --> 00:18:00.839
lot of events, and I'm trying
to maximize the amount of time. Like

250
00:18:00.880 --> 00:18:06.039
I see people like I talk to
Brad like every day, like we're we're

251
00:18:06.079 --> 00:18:08.440
talking all the time. Uh,
you know we're you know, longtime friends.

252
00:18:08.440 --> 00:18:14.079
I've no brand since I was fourteen
years old because his voice had not

253
00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:22.920
broken. Yeah was it VI games
was secret? Excuse me? It was?

254
00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:25.920
Yeah, Brad, I go all
the way back to uh me just

255
00:18:25.960 --> 00:18:30.759
finding this random place on the internet, just a complete dice roll of like

256
00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:33.680
I guess I'll go here, and
like a lot of those, it's wild.

257
00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:37.839
Like when I think back about like
how do you get in this industry,

258
00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:40.559
it's like, well, what you
need to do is you need to

259
00:18:40.640 --> 00:18:47.039
randomly pick an internet chat right full
of EGM editors and future editors of multiple

260
00:18:47.079 --> 00:18:51.319
major publications. Also also crucial to
this path, you need to discover that

261
00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:56.160
EGM's offices are twenty five minutes from
your coups, and then and then become

262
00:18:56.160 --> 00:18:59.720
friends with those people and then they
just throw a job at you. So

263
00:18:59.839 --> 00:19:03.319
if you just do those things,
like just get into the industry, I

264
00:19:03.319 --> 00:19:07.759
don't see what's hards Like you have
to bring a GM back to light.

265
00:19:07.880 --> 00:19:11.279
Yes, that's the easy part though. Yeah, Jason, you probably get

266
00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:14.000
this question a lot, like how
to get in? It's like it has

267
00:19:14.039 --> 00:19:19.319
your answer changed recently. I just
say, don't don't get into this industry.

268
00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:22.519
Jeff, this is my second live
show in two nights. By the

269
00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:25.559
way, Oh really, I was. We did a tripleic click live last

270
00:19:26.119 --> 00:19:29.240
and I want to tell a story. This is going to embarrass someone,

271
00:19:29.279 --> 00:19:30.920
but it's a good story, so
I gotta tell it. So last night

272
00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:33.359
I did a show. We told
people to come meet us to the JW

273
00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:40.720
just like the gutter water that the
gutter trash we are. And so this

274
00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:41.799
woman comes up to me and she's
like, Hey, I just wanted to

275
00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:45.680
say thank you because you on tripical, like you guys talk about you guys.

276
00:19:45.960 --> 00:19:48.440
I worked on this small game and
you guys have given it a lot

277
00:19:48.440 --> 00:19:51.640
of love, and so I just
wanted to thank you for that. And

278
00:19:51.680 --> 00:19:53.720
I was like, oh cool,
I love supporting indie games. Like what

279
00:19:53.799 --> 00:19:56.240
is the game you worked on?
And she's like, oh, Outer Wilds

280
00:19:56.759 --> 00:20:00.319
sure, and I was like,
oh, I don't think. I don't

281
00:20:00.319 --> 00:20:04.400
think you needed support for that one, like literally the best game in a

282
00:20:04.440 --> 00:20:07.599
decade. Okay, thank you,
thank you. That's that's great. How

283
00:20:07.599 --> 00:20:11.039
to do a live show? Go? It was great? It was great.

284
00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:14.440
Los Angeles, baby, how many
of you guys are from Los Angeles?

285
00:20:14.880 --> 00:20:18.720
Yeah? Okay, okay, it's
no New York, but it's it'll

286
00:20:18.759 --> 00:20:22.279
do. Yeah, it's all right, it's a right. He's a Jets

287
00:20:22.359 --> 00:20:25.440

cl will be this funancy. Yeah.

289
00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:34.119
Yeah, let's talk about magazine.
Yeah, he's got a lot of good

290
00:20:34.119 --> 00:20:38.200
opinions. Let's talk about RFKG.
He should be the vice president. I

291
00:20:38.240 --> 00:20:41.440
think, yeah, yeah, man, I mean you're right for a live

292
00:20:41.480 --> 00:20:45.799
show. You're you're working Bloomberg like
like everyone else. Seems like you're working

293
00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:47.920
a bunch of jobs as well.
How's that working for you? Yeah?

294
00:20:48.160 --> 00:20:49.359
I I go up every day to
the office and I say hi, I'm

00:20:49.400 --> 00:20:52.920

298
00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:04.480
I have gift links now. He's
uh, dizzy, can afford a fucking

299
00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:10.519
subscription of American? You know?
The terminal is like thirty thousand dollars.

300
00:21:10.839 --> 00:21:14.319
Me think you can't afford that?
How much does Bob Iger make a lot?

301
00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:19.079
He probably has two terminals. He's
mic is really into blacho. He's

302
00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:22.400
like, yeah, but he's more
he's more of like a fumble core guy.

303
00:21:22.559 --> 00:21:26.480
Sure right, yeah, just big
in the indie scene. Totally.

304
00:21:26.680 --> 00:21:30.480
Yeah. You also are working on
a new book, right I am,

305
00:21:30.559 --> 00:21:33.359
Well, I'm not working on anymore, thank god. Oh yeah yeah,

306
00:21:33.839 --> 00:21:37.880
best part comes down four months.
It's called Play Nice, The Rise,

307
00:21:37.960 --> 00:21:44.759
Fall, and Future of Blizzard Entertainment. And today today today, Blizzard announced

308
00:21:44.759 --> 00:21:48.079
that Diabo for his expansion comes out
on the same day, which is amazing.

309
00:21:48.319 --> 00:21:51.960
That which is amazing. No,
it's great. There's an audiobook that

310
00:21:51.960 --> 00:21:53.559
you can play diab before and listen
to the audiobook at the same time.

311
00:21:55.079 --> 00:21:57.119
That's excellent. What is the process
writing those books? Like, is it

312
00:21:57.240 --> 00:22:00.039
just like a lot of footwork talking
to people? You just stare at a

313
00:22:00.039 --> 00:22:03.799
blank page and feel like hours an
hour? No, yeah, I spent

314
00:22:03.880 --> 00:22:07.880
I spoke to like three hundred something, three hundred and fifty something people for

315
00:22:07.960 --> 00:22:11.920
this book, which was it was
a bear. But it's fun, it's

316
00:22:11.960 --> 00:22:15.359
satisfying, it's rewarding. It's very
rewarding to do. When this will be

317
00:22:15.359 --> 00:22:19.759
the third book, right, yeah, when you're kind of finishing in the

318
00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:22.960
process right now and it's in the
editing phase do there is? They probably

319
00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:26.279
shore like, Okay, what's next, what's next? What's next? No,

320
00:22:26.279 --> 00:22:27.480
no yet, it's it's so it's
done. So the funny thing about

321
00:22:27.519 --> 00:22:30.839
the book industry is that I'm like
video games where it's like coming in hot

322
00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:34.920
day one patch for working on the
day before. As John Drake knows with

323
00:22:36.079 --> 00:22:48.039
books all his games games, John, the growth industry of books, that's

324
00:22:48.079 --> 00:22:51.400
your books. Books do you sell? Hey man? Books sell like ten

325
00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:55.799
twenty copies, they go on a
shelf. I mean, what else do

326
00:22:55.839 --> 00:22:57.559
you want from them? So the
book industry like the book is finished like

327
00:22:57.640 --> 00:23:02.160
six months before it hits doors,
which is crazy to me. That's just

328
00:23:02.200 --> 00:23:04.240
how it works. Everything is like
sluggish, and you know it's crazy in

329
00:23:04.279 --> 00:23:07.440
the book industry. Editors and publishers. People who work in the industry don't

330
00:23:07.480 --> 00:23:12.400
respond to emails on weekends or past
five pm. So weird, so weird.

331
00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:15.480
Just don't have a question. Why
is it six months? Is that

332
00:23:15.559 --> 00:23:18.599
to get like poll coaches and stuff
like that. It's just like how the

333
00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:23.000
process works. They do like galleys, review copies, and then the printing

334
00:23:23.240 --> 00:23:29.680
and stuff and they put like several
like free print versions, right, versions

335
00:23:30.240 --> 00:23:34.480
got to get that glossy paper.
The ink doesn't bleed. I've always been

336
00:23:34.519 --> 00:23:38.440
curious about this. When the audiobook
does come out, are you involved in

337
00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:41.599
the process of like picking who reads
it? I am not. Well,

338
00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:42.880
yes, picking who reads it?
Yeah, so this is a funny stay

339
00:23:44.079 --> 00:23:47.000
would they let you read it?
If I was like, yeah, I

340
00:23:47.000 --> 00:23:48.960
want to read it, But I
would never want to be like an ultra

341
00:23:49.119 --> 00:23:56.200
exclusive edition. I'll just read you
before. I'll set up a torrent if

342
00:23:56.240 --> 00:24:00.720
you pay extra, if you pay
for the Ultimate Edittion. Yeah, you

343
00:24:00.799 --> 00:24:03.960
get if you sign up at remap
radio dot com, sign up the Sealed

344
00:24:04.079 --> 00:24:08.799
tire, and that's where Jesus's Audiobook
to Me will go. This is our

345
00:24:08.839 --> 00:24:12.000
synergy, man, our media synergy
right here. We just we just formed

346
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:17.119
a business deal on who says he
three is dead? Yeah? This is

347
00:24:17.359 --> 00:24:19.400
yeah, this is Secret three right
here. Yeah. So it's a funny

348
00:24:19.400 --> 00:24:22.559
story. So that my first two
books and hopefully my third book were read

349
00:24:22.599 --> 00:24:26.319
by Ray Chase, who is a
great voice actor. He played knocked Us

350
00:24:26.400 --> 00:24:32.720
in Vital Fantasy fifteen, and it
happened because he like tweeted at me in

351
00:24:32.759 --> 00:24:33.920
twenty sixteen and was like, hey, do you need a voice actor?

352
00:24:33.960 --> 00:24:36.759
And I was like, oh,
you're noctus. Yes, yes, I

353
00:24:36.759 --> 00:24:38.759
do need a voice actor. So
and then he just did it. Do

354
00:24:38.799 --> 00:24:44.720
you provide feedback on it? No
samples? You know this airograph, don't.

355
00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:47.519
I don't know you said this one. No, Now I hear it

356
00:24:47.559 --> 00:24:49.039
the same time as everyone else did. Do you want to be more in

357
00:24:49.079 --> 00:24:52.799
bout than that process? Or you
happy to watch your nds? I'm just

358
00:24:52.079 --> 00:24:56.240
I'm just the words. I'm like
done at that. But I never want

359
00:24:56.240 --> 00:24:59.039
to see the book again. Like
I've looked at it so many freaking times

360
00:24:59.440 --> 00:25:03.799
that I never want to look at
it again. Drake. Uh, how's

361
00:25:03.839 --> 00:25:08.799
it a Disney? What a thoughtful
question, Jeff, Yeah, that's only

362
00:25:08.839 --> 00:25:11.240
the best for you. A deep
and thoughtful question. Yeah. And god

363
00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:14.079
you got Roy up here. We
got two people who make games up here.

364
00:25:14.079 --> 00:25:17.200
It's good. The Uh, it's
fine. We're making lots of stuff.

365
00:25:17.279 --> 00:25:19.240
Yeah. It shows off some Mediana
Jones today. That seemed pretty good.

366
00:25:21.319 --> 00:25:22.480
It's my first, my first deal
that I did when I got to

367
00:25:22.519 --> 00:25:26.799
Disney four and a half years ago. Really, so he was in there

368
00:25:26.839 --> 00:25:30.160
the first one I started it.
It did look really good. I thought

369
00:25:30.160 --> 00:25:33.000
it was excellent. I liked that
it was funny. I think it like

370
00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:34.680
that's something we often miss in sort
of our butt. Like I actually really

371
00:25:34.759 --> 00:25:37.119
liked the Xbox Press conference or to
End to M but it was a lot

372
00:25:37.119 --> 00:25:41.559
of even the cozy Mouse game was
like in the existential threat of being a

373
00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:45.160
city mouse. It's like, Jesus
Christ, guys, it's so dark in

374
00:25:45.160 --> 00:25:47.839
the world. Can we just get
like a Nazi? Were going back to

375
00:25:47.920 --> 00:25:52.119
the nice, wholesome Nazis. I
mean, they don't do great but spoilers.

376
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:56.119
Bad things happened to him. He
had a grenade in his hand.

377
00:25:56.119 --> 00:25:59.160
Mary. It wasn't like a great
situation for the NTS. No, it

378
00:25:59.240 --> 00:26:00.720
was fun. We're doing that.
We're doing some outlaw stuff tomorrow for Star

379
00:26:00.720 --> 00:26:03.599
Wars Outlaws, and I live here, so this is just like I don't

380
00:26:03.599 --> 00:26:07.559
know, I just drove over.
What can you give me? Can I

381
00:26:07.559 --> 00:26:10.279
get you in a dibasoft thing?
Yeah, I mean text me and don't

382
00:26:11.359 --> 00:26:12.200
I'm not gonna like, I'm not
gonna add you to list right now.

383
00:26:12.279 --> 00:26:15.799
I'm not gonna add your list on
the couch. I'm not giant bomb trying

384
00:26:15.799 --> 00:26:18.359
to let people to the show.
I am. We got We've got a

385
00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:22.759
tough security out there, but watch
they were not happy with you. I

386
00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:25.279
was still, we have two pillows, and I was like, don't worry

387
00:26:25.319 --> 00:26:29.559
about it. I'm obviously here for
the show to tell me about the heist.

388
00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:33.599
So I went to the Xbox briefing
as a partner. Uh, and

389
00:26:33.640 --> 00:26:37.319
then they had like an executive thing
that was like very far away from the

390
00:26:37.400 --> 00:26:40.759
big crazy theater they had. It
was like, I drove the methesta guys

391
00:26:40.759 --> 00:26:42.359
over in my car h and we
went there and there are all these pillows

392
00:26:42.359 --> 00:26:45.599
and my friend Daniel, who works
there, was like, hey, I'm

393
00:26:45.640 --> 00:26:48.519
running this event. Here's some extra
swag that was lying around, but also

394
00:26:48.559 --> 00:26:51.960
like could you take these pillows because
we're gonna throw them away. And I

395
00:26:52.039 --> 00:26:53.039
was like, yeah, that's so, I'll bring them and I'll give them

396
00:26:53.079 --> 00:26:56.720
a give them to you guys.
And then I walked out with holding these

397
00:26:56.759 --> 00:27:00.079
pillows, me and Eve Kimo waiting
for our cars, and he was like,

398
00:27:00.200 --> 00:27:03.480
what's up with the pillows, And
I was like, don't worry about

399
00:27:03.519 --> 00:27:07.480
it. No, I cannot.
I would never because I'm in We're in

400
00:27:07.480 --> 00:27:11.200
his show. To martlet him to
pull up far he's very powerful. Yeah,

401
00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:14.400
I know, that's it. I
just tole some pillows walking through the

402
00:27:14.440 --> 00:27:15.799
middle of this lobby. Did he
seem like he was worried that you guys

403
00:27:15.799 --> 00:27:18.680
were going to get stopped because you
thought you stole pillows. I don't think

404
00:27:18.720 --> 00:27:22.440
he worries about's when it comes to
me. I'm not really I'm not really

405
00:27:22.480 --> 00:27:25.319
a pressing part of his mind.
He Hey, I've been in a couple

406
00:27:25.359 --> 00:27:26.799
of meetings with you. Why are
you taking the pillows? Are you do

407
00:27:26.880 --> 00:27:30.559
you need pillows? Can I help
you acquire regular pillows that are not landed?

408
00:27:32.039 --> 00:27:33.160
Are you getting paid enough? Yeah? I mean no, I mean

409
00:27:33.200 --> 00:27:36.359
like, let's see what this,
Let's see how the Star Wars Outlass game

410
00:27:36.440 --> 00:27:38.319
do and figure it out from there. No, it's good. Everything's everything's

411
00:27:38.319 --> 00:27:41.400
fine, Jeff, I do.
I'm glad to hear that we're getting through

412
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:44.519
the day, Drake. That's wonderful, one day at a time. Yeah,

413
00:27:44.680 --> 00:27:47.720
sure thing. I did get a
text message yesterday from Adam Boyce,

414
00:27:47.759 --> 00:27:51.519
who was upset that you've now tied
him for the most appearances on Giant Bob.

415
00:27:51.799 --> 00:27:56.480
Correct should have come to la Adam
should have come to my birthday party

416
00:27:56.440 --> 00:28:00.000
and then stayed for the show.
Adam shouldn't be raising your fan family responsibly

417
00:28:00.039 --> 00:28:06.000
and having a god man, I'm
losing weight. Yeah, clepics here from

418
00:28:06.079 --> 00:28:08.640
Chicago. They have airplanes get out
here. Yeah. Yeah. He said

419
00:28:08.640 --> 00:28:11.279
he was gonna call in, and
now I've got a trycaster there that's never

420
00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:15.079
gonna And the answer is if you
I will, I will hold up a

421
00:28:15.119 --> 00:28:18.880
phone with FaceTime on. But as
per Giant Bomb rules, if you call

422
00:28:18.000 --> 00:28:21.119
him the show, I read your
phone number out live on there. There

423
00:28:21.200 --> 00:28:23.359
is here you go, boys,
there it is right now. You want

424
00:28:23.359 --> 00:28:26.240
to be at nineteen appearances, you
never to choose your phone again. Those

425
00:28:26.240 --> 00:28:30.200
are the exchange rates. I don't
make the rules. Uh bread uh.

426
00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:33.960
When it comes to covering games right
now, how are you feeling about it?

427
00:28:33.960 --> 00:28:36.559
Because I'm like at a point where, uh, we do the news

428
00:28:36.599 --> 00:28:40.359
show and then all the other stuff
is like silly stuff and I'm playing,

429
00:28:40.440 --> 00:28:44.079
like playing playing like Dai katana right
now, and it's like, yeah,

430
00:28:44.079 --> 00:28:45.480
it's it's terrible, but honestly,
I kind of like it because it's like,

431
00:28:45.480 --> 00:28:48.839
oh, it's so far removed from
all the kind of like the nightmare

432
00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:52.039
of covering games right now? Do
you feel that? Is that something you

433
00:28:52.079 --> 00:28:56.759
guys consider when you're picking game coverage
things like that, not necessarily. How

434
00:28:56.759 --> 00:28:59.799
do you feel about the environment out
there? I feel like like everything so

435
00:28:59.880 --> 00:29:02.519
like rumor and leaked driven now,
like especially you having to run a new

436
00:29:02.519 --> 00:29:03.319
show, Like, first of all, I don't know how the hell you

437
00:29:03.440 --> 00:29:07.839
he's the one doing all the rumors
in the least so much like it's not

438
00:29:07.880 --> 00:29:15.839
like it's yeah, that's all good, it's uh, it's it's strange.

439
00:29:15.960 --> 00:29:19.319
It's because people do have like a
craving four like, oh what, what's

440
00:29:19.400 --> 00:29:22.480
what's next, What's next? What's
next? And it's like you're going to

441
00:29:22.559 --> 00:29:25.319
only let that drive stuff so much
so it's like most of the show when

442
00:29:25.319 --> 00:29:27.039
people watch it, it's like,
let's actually try to talk about what's happening

443
00:29:27.079 --> 00:29:32.240
and explain like why these decisions get
made and that people have so much of

444
00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:33.599
an appetite for that, but you
try to. You gotta take time to

445
00:29:33.599 --> 00:29:37.599
build the audience that actually wants to
hear, that wants to get those lessons

446
00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:38.599
a little bit, and that's uh, that's been fun. But it's like

447
00:29:38.640 --> 00:29:42.880
that is a grind in itself,
which is why like I find myself returning

448
00:29:42.880 --> 00:29:47.480
to some older games a little bit
more frequently recently, and they can't hurt

449
00:29:47.519 --> 00:29:48.880
you there if you're in the older
day. Yeah, exactly. Yeah Dakta,

450
00:29:48.960 --> 00:29:52.599
well, Dakatana can hurt me and
has frequently. Yeah, that's a

451
00:29:52.680 --> 00:29:56.000
rough one. See. You just
you just build the audience, then you

452
00:29:56.000 --> 00:29:59.279
push it further and further. Alright, like remap when I was talking with

453
00:29:59.359 --> 00:30:03.079
Rob Zacney, you know, like
my colleague, I was like, you

454
00:30:03.079 --> 00:30:06.359
want to talk about our house ship? I gotta figure out how to get

455
00:30:06.400 --> 00:30:08.839
a plumber? Do you think to
listen to that? Like there's only one

456
00:30:08.839 --> 00:30:12.440
way to find out, right,
And we're talking about this stuff constantly at

457
00:30:12.359 --> 00:30:15.920
a certain way. It's like hopefully
they're just tuning in to like let hear

458
00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:18.680
us talk about whatever now. So
yeah, there's like finding spots where we

459
00:30:18.680 --> 00:30:22.200
can just find a little reprieve from
what's going on. But I mean,

460
00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:23.279
do you think there's gonna be a
break in the way the industry is going

461
00:30:23.319 --> 00:30:25.920
aroun? Yeah, don't it seems
like it? Yeah? I mean I

462
00:30:25.960 --> 00:30:27.480
was gonna say as far as us
picking stuff though, like like I always

463
00:30:27.480 --> 00:30:32.319
find the more self indulgent I think
something is, the more people actually want

464
00:30:32.319 --> 00:30:33.880
it. Yeah, you know,
it's like does anybody actually want to watch

465
00:30:33.880 --> 00:30:40.640
me play through all the Fallout one
apparently extreme. Yeah, they've always loved

466
00:30:40.680 --> 00:30:45.119
you know, we're so self conscious. They just wanted like to listen to

467
00:30:45.119 --> 00:30:48.160
like me and Vinie sit around talking
about like podcast like audio tech for an

468
00:30:48.160 --> 00:30:51.000
hour like apparent apparently. Yes,
you know that does remind me. How

469
00:30:51.079 --> 00:30:52.599
is the NASS? What's going well? Yeah? Yeah, yeah? Are

470
00:30:52.599 --> 00:30:56.119
you upgrading the network attached storage anytime
soon? It's it's in a good place.

471
00:30:56.240 --> 00:30:59.279
Yeah, Okay, I like to
hear that tech pod, dot content,

472
00:30:59.359 --> 00:31:03.440
dot town if you more, that's
you're another person with multiple projects going

473
00:31:03.480 --> 00:31:07.119
on. Yeah, it's just like
that, like like that's the name of

474
00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:10.119
the game, right, Like I
feel like the number of people I know

475
00:31:10.200 --> 00:31:12.039
wearing like three hats out numbers of
people I know that we're one at this

476
00:31:12.079 --> 00:31:15.160
point. You know, does that
make you feel lazy? Mary Cash one

477
00:31:15.279 --> 00:31:18.799
job, just hanging out. Do
you also have your own podcast? Yeah?

478
00:31:18.880 --> 00:31:22.599
Yeah, I have several jumps.
Yeah, get on the trolley.

479
00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:26.880
I yeah. The side hustles are
the new job. We like to have

480
00:31:27.279 --> 00:31:32.240
three or four things at any given
time. Yeah, And similarly to Brad

481
00:31:32.400 --> 00:31:34.559
was saying, we don't always talk
about games. In fact, that's kind

482
00:31:34.559 --> 00:31:40.119
of the staple of it isn't it
Dan? I would say it's thirty percent

483
00:31:40.200 --> 00:31:45.920
games, thirty percent whatever we're actually
thinking about, and sometimes that is plumbing,

484
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:49.240
and sometimes it is weird house stuff, and then it's thirty percent Dan

485
00:31:49.400 --> 00:31:53.759
being a piece of shit weird.
I know it doesn't add up to one

486
00:31:53.799 --> 00:31:56.440
hundred, but you know there's always
ten percent for questions or something else.

487
00:31:56.519 --> 00:32:00.279
Yeah, I'm going to send you
the game sense so you could see what

488
00:32:00.279 --> 00:32:02.079
that's like with Dan could control that. Yeah, yeah, it's a rough

489
00:32:02.119 --> 00:32:07.960
one. Did we figure out the
allergy situation on that one? It wasn't

490
00:32:07.960 --> 00:32:12.200
helping for sure. Okay, I
was too afraid to tell my doctor that

491
00:32:12.279 --> 00:32:15.319
I had. You were too embarrassedary
you that. I was too embarrassed to

492
00:32:15.319 --> 00:32:19.119
be like, there's a man that
controls a robot in my house that can

493
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:22.960
set off since whenever I'm on content
we have an agreement, I don't know.

494
00:32:22.960 --> 00:32:27.440
I like it's it's it's the something
allergies. Jeff went in for a

495
00:32:27.519 --> 00:32:30.079
Sinus property came out in a fifty
one fifty cycle as a man with a

496
00:32:30.200 --> 00:32:34.160
robot that controls the sets in my
brain. Yes, exactly right. You're

497
00:32:34.160 --> 00:32:36.920
gonna say your favorite Fallout vault.
Yeah, you know you give me the

498
00:32:37.000 --> 00:32:40.200
quarterback for the Jets for sure.
Ye get me in there, put me

499
00:32:40.200 --> 00:32:44.160
on coach. All right. We
only have a couple of minutes left.

500
00:32:44.160 --> 00:32:45.200
We did all come out here,
and I guess to see video games you

501
00:32:45.519 --> 00:32:49.160
any you want to talk about?
And he that stuck out, like that's

502
00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:51.599
the crazy thing about that, like
so much of it is embargoed, that

503
00:32:51.720 --> 00:32:52.559
is, I think. I think
like the majority of the stuff I've seen

504
00:32:52.559 --> 00:32:54.880
I can't actually talk about, right, stuff that we played. Yeah,

505
00:32:55.160 --> 00:32:58.759
so at the showcases, I guess, like the Xbox thing this morning,

506
00:32:58.799 --> 00:33:01.480
I thought was pretty good. Yeah, Indie did look very good. That

507
00:33:01.599 --> 00:33:04.319
is. You don't have to do
that because I'm here, but thank you.

508
00:33:05.559 --> 00:33:07.400
I like it doing it. Yeah
absolutely. I don't know, but

509
00:33:07.640 --> 00:33:10.559
like a Perfect Dark looks surprisingly good. Do you think that's an immersive sim?

510
00:33:10.640 --> 00:33:15.519
I hope. So what it sounds
like to me is like maybe kind

511
00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:16.920
of a little bit like Hitman,
kind of a little bit like cyberpunk.

512
00:33:17.000 --> 00:33:22.240
So yeah, I got some Watchdogs
vibes from like the environmental Sure puzzle sobby

513
00:33:22.359 --> 00:33:23.160
nature of it too, But yeah, I don't know, but these look

514
00:33:23.519 --> 00:33:27.000
Yeah, it's like they did a
pretty good show. I guess the other

515
00:33:27.039 --> 00:33:30.359
question there is Xbox is having what's
going on with Xbox right now, which

516
00:33:30.400 --> 00:33:31.480
is like okay, and they're like, we want the games to speak for

517
00:33:31.519 --> 00:33:35.920
themselves. Did they accomplish that?
Do you think? Patrick? Yeah?

518
00:33:35.960 --> 00:33:38.160
I mean I thought it was like
a really solid showcase, except that you

519
00:33:38.200 --> 00:33:43.519
know, every time like this game's
coming out in twenty twenty five, Yeah,

520
00:33:43.559 --> 00:33:47.000
that's the year for Xbox till twenty
five, till twenty five, Yeah,

521
00:33:47.279 --> 00:33:50.119
yeah, yeah, yeah, I
mean it just you know, it

522
00:33:50.160 --> 00:33:52.960
just feels like sometimes with Xbox,
even if it's always next year, right,

523
00:33:52.079 --> 00:33:54.519
it feels like it's always like that's
the year where it's all gonna come

524
00:33:54.559 --> 00:33:59.400
together. And it was also kind
of wild as every trailer came through,

525
00:33:59.440 --> 00:34:02.680
is like that's right. They own
that ship too, don't they guess because

526
00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:07.400
it used to me like it's a
our stuff and partner showcase, and increasing

527
00:34:07.480 --> 00:34:12.280
it's like, isn't our stuff and
partners we bought showcase And they don't even

528
00:34:12.280 --> 00:34:14.000
do the thing anymore where it's like
they're gonna like, oh, we'll have

529
00:34:14.039 --> 00:34:15.239
a separate chow for butthes that it's
like, no, they're just in here

530
00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:20.000
now, that's just what it is. Yeah, anything else that go out

531
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:22.480
to anybody, any top games you
guys saw I do want to shout up

532
00:34:22.480 --> 00:34:25.599
building relationships. Yeah, you're okay, everyone's been saying this. Yea.

533
00:34:27.639 --> 00:34:31.400
The Day of the davs. Like
the aesthetic is kind of like it's like

534
00:34:31.480 --> 00:34:37.079
a lo fi ps one like physics, kind of like Katamari Damachi. It's

535
00:34:37.119 --> 00:34:42.320
like this house that's rolling around this
environment and it's like not a dating sim,

536
00:34:42.360 --> 00:34:45.119
but it's really horny and you're a
you're a building talking to other buildings,

537
00:34:45.239 --> 00:34:50.559
and there's a lot of like really
funny sexual innuendo. And I was

538
00:34:50.559 --> 00:34:52.239
talking to the developer and I was
like, you know, this game seems

539
00:34:52.239 --> 00:34:55.559
really neat. The reception has like
seemingly pause, Like how long you been

540
00:34:55.559 --> 00:35:00.159
working on this? He's like,
well, like October, I was like

541
00:35:00.559 --> 00:35:05.199
last Octor was like yeah, I'm
like, oh, that's neat. I

542
00:35:05.239 --> 00:35:07.840
was like, you know, the
writing's really strong, like you working with

543
00:35:07.880 --> 00:35:08.960
that? And he was like no, I think it's me. It's like

544
00:35:09.000 --> 00:35:12.239
you. I like, do you
identify as a writer? Do you write

545
00:35:12.239 --> 00:35:17.039
a lot? No? If you
identify as a building sexual Like I was

546
00:35:17.039 --> 00:35:22.280
like, well then what's your process? Well, I go on Grinder and

547
00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:25.320
then like, I write stuff on
Grinder and I'm like that's pretty funny,

548
00:35:25.320 --> 00:35:30.639
and then I delete it and then
I put it in the game. Yeah,

549
00:35:30.199 --> 00:35:35.199
it's a process. It's amazing,
Patrick, isn't that how you started

550
00:35:35.239 --> 00:35:38.840
remoun So, I like what I
want, what I want to believe is

551
00:35:38.840 --> 00:35:45.239
that there are there are lines in
the game that also went out on grind,

552
00:35:45.320 --> 00:35:50.239
Yes, and that they just exist. Yes. Yeah, So I

553
00:35:49.599 --> 00:35:52.639
I believe that demo is either out
now or beyond the seam next vest next

554
00:35:52.639 --> 00:35:59.239
week. It's just wild and interesting
and like unlike literally anything I saw this

555
00:35:59.280 --> 00:36:00.400
week, so that that's definitely the
one that is and you can see how

556
00:36:00.400 --> 00:36:04.119
it happens. It's like I'm a
big a building game. I'll make a

557
00:36:04.119 --> 00:36:07.400
relationship game. Oh we building relationships, building relationships. You could just see

558
00:36:07.440 --> 00:36:10.639
like the dumb idea popping out of
your head. Yeah, we did get

559
00:36:10.679 --> 00:36:14.719
the wrap up signs, so we're
gonna send these folks on right now.

560
00:36:14.840 --> 00:36:17.360
Let's get a round up applause.
Thank you all so much for coming out.

so grub Yeah, tell me about
this Xbox pillow that you got there.

566
00:36:43.960 --> 00:36:46.039
John Drake is the world's greatest thief. Yea, he did this for

567
00:36:46.199 --> 00:36:49.360
me, honestly what he was handed
to me. I'm like, did you

568
00:36:49.360 --> 00:36:51.679
buy this? And oh, of
course he stole it. Yeah. So

569
00:36:51.800 --> 00:36:55.320
this is a fun fact to share. Often at our San Diego Comic Con

570
00:36:55.519 --> 00:37:00.480
parties for fandom, we have you
know, swag that and up, like

571
00:37:00.559 --> 00:37:05.519
on the couches around at float at
the hard Rock Cafe. A lot of

572
00:37:05.519 --> 00:37:09.440
the time these pillows don't make it
back to the office because people sneak off

573
00:37:09.480 --> 00:37:15.039
with them. So I've been Yeah. Ben Starr definitely has a collection of

574
00:37:15.920 --> 00:37:24.039
items swiped from parties over the years. But you know what, We're good.

00:37:44.119 --> 00:37:45.840
out backstage. There was pizza,
there were drinks, so really, what

579
00:37:45.920 --> 00:37:50.840
more do you need in life?
Please? Welcome to the stage, I

580
00:37:50.880 --> 00:37:55.000

most recently of Fun How It's Elise
Willems. Elise. Yeah, you need

okay, so this one it's it's one

586
00:38:24.639 --> 00:38:30.480
hundred small rubber ducks. But this
is the ice container for the venues.

587
00:38:30.559 --> 00:38:31.199

629
00:41:57.400 --> 00:42:01.880
has arms and hands, and this
is just a very shafty pickle. I

630
00:42:01.920 --> 00:42:06.199
think that's what you want from your
pickles. I don't find that upsetting at

631
00:42:06.239 --> 00:42:10.800
all. Yeah, yeah, how
you doing? Pickle is ridged for someone's

632
00:42:10.880 --> 00:42:15.440
pleasure. I don't know everybody's.
I think Emma might have the fourth mike.

633
00:42:15.480 --> 00:42:19.039
We'll get that to you here in
a second, Paris. How you

634
00:42:19.119 --> 00:42:22.880
doing. I'm doing fantastic, sir? Got your nine point five? Did

635
00:42:22.920 --> 00:42:27.400
you get your nine point five?
Xbox? It was a it was a

636
00:42:27.440 --> 00:42:30.599
ten ten. That's what they needed
to do. Yeah, I mean that's

637
00:42:30.599 --> 00:42:32.880
what you hear out of their camp
right now. Xbox. The showcase happened

638
00:42:32.920 --> 00:42:37.360
this morning. It was almost two
hours. They said they wanted the games

639
00:42:37.360 --> 00:42:39.280
to speak of themselves. You thought
they succeeded at that. I think they

640
00:42:39.480 --> 00:42:44.079
absolutely did. From start to finish. I was interested in every game that

641
00:42:44.159 --> 00:42:45.960
they were showing. I was really
impressed by everything I saw on there.

642
00:42:46.159 --> 00:42:50.960
Anything that really blew you away?
Perfect Dark? Yeah, just because of

643
00:42:51.039 --> 00:42:55.800
the unknowns, the rumors of speculation
for them to finally show it and to

644
00:42:55.840 --> 00:43:00.400
have extended gameplay in there and Ford
to look that good, Oh yeah,

645
00:43:00.559 --> 00:43:04.119
I think they knocked it out of
the park. Yeah. Were you worried

646
00:43:04.519 --> 00:43:06.960
at all about like on the last
panel they mentioned I had a lot of

647
00:43:06.960 --> 00:43:08.239
twenty twenty fives. Once again,
it's like, well, wait till next

648
00:43:08.280 --> 00:43:13.559
year. Are you feeling that well? I think it's because they did the

649
00:43:13.719 --> 00:43:15.920
direct earlier in the year, so
they kind of told us already here are

650
00:43:15.960 --> 00:43:20.400
the twenty twenty four games, and
none of them were delayed. They're still

651
00:43:20.440 --> 00:43:22.840
saying twenty twenty four, that's right. So seeing all these now being twenty

652
00:43:22.840 --> 00:43:24.960
twenty five, I was like,
uh, okay, yep, yep.

653
00:43:24.960 --> 00:43:29.000
Absolutely, at least, how you
doing. I'm doing great. I'm going

654
00:43:29.079 --> 00:43:32.079
to be finding ducks everywhere. Yeah, you should just stuff at your pockets

655
00:43:32.079 --> 00:43:35.400
with them and everything. You don't
want to lose these. They're really important.

656
00:43:35.599 --> 00:43:37.400
Thanks for coming out. I appreciate
it. You did you Are you

657
00:43:37.480 --> 00:43:40.440
enjoying summer game fest? I'm having
a great summer game fest like Paris.

658
00:43:40.760 --> 00:43:44.199
I love that Xbox showcase. I
thought it was great. Yeah, what

659
00:43:44.239 --> 00:43:46.480
stuck out to you. I also
was into Perfect Dark because I'm a big

660
00:43:46.519 --> 00:43:51.480
fan of the Crystal Dynamics tomb Raider
games, so I'm really hoping a lot

661
00:43:51.480 --> 00:43:57.920
of that expertise carries over there.
And mixtape I thought, yeah, looked

662
00:43:57.960 --> 00:44:01.119
really cool from the artful Escape devs. Yeah, there was a lot of

663
00:44:01.119 --> 00:44:05.639
games where people started like running and
like floating and air dashing, and I

664
00:44:05.679 --> 00:44:07.800
always like air dashing, So yeah, that looked really good. And I

665
00:44:07.840 --> 00:44:12.679
feel like everybody's really into the nineties
right now. Yeah, like we've got

666
00:44:12.719 --> 00:44:16.400
you know, Call of Duty is
like Golf War. George Herbert Walker was

667
00:44:16.440 --> 00:44:20.480
in that one. Yeah, yeah, George dubs and then Mixtape is the

668
00:44:20.519 --> 00:44:22.599
early nineties too. Yeah, and
I'm a nineties kid, so I'm like,

669
00:44:22.679 --> 00:44:25.280
yes, please take me back.
Yeah. Do you think part of

670
00:44:25.280 --> 00:44:29.760
that is like, like, new
games don't feel that exciting right now,

671
00:44:29.800 --> 00:44:32.440
so having something that has a nostalgic
base really helps or what I think.

672
00:44:32.440 --> 00:44:36.880
So, And I also think it's
a very easy tent pole to point to

673
00:44:37.000 --> 00:44:40.800
for tone and atmosphere, Like everybody
knows that and everybody can not everybody,

674
00:44:40.840 --> 00:44:44.840
but you can actually like point to
that time period and say like, oh,

675
00:44:44.880 --> 00:44:47.400
yeah, we can use that as
an inspiration to write and to build

676
00:44:47.440 --> 00:44:54.719
something around. Yeah. So that's
soundtrack smashing bum Yeah, And I was

677
00:44:54.760 --> 00:44:57.920
like there was one screen and I
was like, oh, that's sick,

678
00:44:57.960 --> 00:45:01.159
and then there was a second screen. Right, it's still and the games

679
00:45:01.199 --> 00:45:04.280
don't do that that often, probably
because they want to save money. I

680
00:45:04.280 --> 00:45:06.119
don't. I don't know, but
now like that got me excited. Know

681
00:45:06.159 --> 00:45:07.159
it was the awful Escape team and
that makes sense. I didn't know that

682
00:45:07.199 --> 00:45:10.840
either. Yeah. Yeah, the
game rules, yes, very exciting.

683
00:45:10.920 --> 00:45:20.920
Uh ify Uh are you enjoying the
show so far? I don't know what

684
00:45:20.960 --> 00:45:32.840
I expected. Yeah, that's about
my summer. We were talking before.

685
00:45:32.920 --> 00:45:36.239
You're from the LA area, so
he nice to get everybody to come into

686
00:45:36.320 --> 00:45:38.119
town come see you. Oh yeah, I don't have to travel. Everyone's

687
00:45:38.159 --> 00:45:40.599
in town. I get to say
what's up. You know, a lot

688
00:45:40.599 --> 00:45:45.960
of y'all who don't be here are
now here. And then also, yeah,

689
00:45:45.960 --> 00:45:47.760
we got that new Gears of War, which, like you know,

690
00:45:47.840 --> 00:45:52.480
that's always going to hold a special
place in my heart because that was like

691
00:45:52.559 --> 00:45:54.360
I remember when the first one came
out. We were just talking about it,

692
00:45:54.519 --> 00:46:00.119
like a you duck understuff and you
shoot? What do you want of

693
00:46:00.119 --> 00:46:01.840
a new Gears of War? Oh? Man? You know, I think

694
00:46:01.840 --> 00:46:06.079
it'll just be fun to see Dom
again because I was one of those people

695
00:46:06.239 --> 00:46:08.239
was hurt when he died spoiler alert. I was like yeah, yeah,

696
00:46:08.320 --> 00:46:12.800
yeah, I know. Yeah,
it was crazy. The soundtrack was nuts.

697
00:46:12.800 --> 00:46:15.960
He gets in that big truck he
tries, He's like if he stopped

698
00:46:15.360 --> 00:46:28.760
stop it. Yeah, and that's
what Years of War. I want them

699
00:46:28.800 --> 00:46:31.480
to start his enemies because it's a
prequel. I want it to be like

700
00:46:31.639 --> 00:46:35.920
these guys hate each other and then
we see them fall in love. Oh

701
00:46:35.960 --> 00:46:37.360
I like that too. Yeah,
you want it to be more anime?

702
00:46:37.679 --> 00:46:43.960
Yes, okay, So if you
are a longtime Gears fan, you want

703
00:46:43.960 --> 00:46:47.639
this to be like a different kind
of experience, or if it is just

704
00:46:47.760 --> 00:46:51.360
more Gears of War, you're gonna
be happy. Yeah, okay, now

705
00:46:51.400 --> 00:46:53.400
this is accidentally a problem. I
love it. Yeah, No, I

706
00:46:53.679 --> 00:46:57.840
do want it to be like you
know, I just like your class.

707
00:47:00.840 --> 00:47:05.719
I opened Pandora's Box and now but
yeah, now I want it to be

708
00:47:05.920 --> 00:47:07.920
like, you know, some of
that classic Years of War with just a

709
00:47:07.960 --> 00:47:13.000
new flare. Like I've I've been
a fan of all of the like you

710
00:47:13.039 --> 00:47:15.199
know, Gears five, Gears six, every one of them I popped open

711
00:47:15.199 --> 00:47:20.599
and played. So I'm so far. I'm not tired of some cogs.

712
00:47:20.679 --> 00:47:22.599
I need more cogs in my life, right And I think what I'm hoping

713
00:47:22.679 --> 00:47:25.480
is like they're okay with this game
coming out, having the multiplayer like always

714
00:47:25.480 --> 00:47:29.519
and not having to be some big
live service thing that last year. Ever,

715
00:47:30.159 --> 00:47:31.679
yes, can't put that on every
game, right, Yeah, yeah,

716
00:47:31.719 --> 00:47:36.199
I hope that. I hope we
stop, you know, we we

717
00:47:36.440 --> 00:47:38.679
just have a game just come out, you know, it just exists,

718
00:47:38.719 --> 00:47:44.000
and then there's a multiplayer. I
think that the excitement behind the live as

719
00:47:44.039 --> 00:47:47.000
a service game is from the aspect
of, you know, we have a

720
00:47:47.000 --> 00:47:51.280
few devs up here, but we
know the the powers that be above our

721
00:47:51.320 --> 00:47:54.920
heads love the idea of infinite money, and I think that's what they look

722
00:47:54.920 --> 00:47:59.159
at as live as a service.
But there's something beautiful about a game that

723
00:47:59.280 --> 00:48:02.639
has a start and finish and a
like solid multiplayer to go with it.

724
00:48:02.719 --> 00:48:07.719
Like I love going back and playing
some of the like going through the first

725
00:48:07.760 --> 00:48:10.480
trilogy of Gears of War and just
seeing it from start to finish and not

726
00:48:10.519 --> 00:48:15.719
necessarily needing it to exist and have
like you know, I guess you uh

727
00:48:15.880 --> 00:48:22.320
fuck of you know, Omni Man
show up and shoot with Dom even though

728
00:48:22.400 --> 00:48:24.480
Run the Jewels is in one of
the Gears somewhere, of course, but

729
00:48:24.599 --> 00:48:29.280
that that rit though, that rifts
that was sight. Yeah, a lot

730
00:48:29.320 --> 00:48:31.599
of Do you think that Microsoft's maybe
learned a lesson from Halo, where they're

731
00:48:31.599 --> 00:48:35.079
like, we talked about a ten
year plan, we talked about all these

732
00:48:35.119 --> 00:48:37.880
things that we need this game to
do. Can they just let gears be

733
00:48:37.039 --> 00:48:43.280
gears? It's a great question.
We don't know yet. Unfortunately, the

734
00:48:43.320 --> 00:48:46.320
whole game's industry is obviously very focused
on print infinite money. It's you know,

735
00:48:46.440 --> 00:48:52.159
the stop market what great for everybody
involved. Yeah yeah, I was

736
00:48:52.239 --> 00:48:54.719
gonna say the industry is focused on
layoffs, so it seems like, yes,

737
00:48:54.840 --> 00:48:58.079
the number one product. Yeah.
Yeah. So, Like while I

738
00:48:58.159 --> 00:49:00.360
loved the Xbox show Case, like
it was so good, I did have

739
00:49:00.400 --> 00:49:02.320
a moment because I streamed it and
I was like, really hard not to

740
00:49:02.320 --> 00:49:06.440
think about fucking Tango though, Like
it is, like it was such a

741
00:49:06.440 --> 00:49:09.719
good showcase and it's still you know, that's what an eighty billion dollar showcase

742
00:49:09.719 --> 00:49:13.199
at this point, Like it is
very very good, like back to back.

743
00:49:13.239 --> 00:49:15.920
I was super excited about so many
things, and it paced really well

744
00:49:15.960 --> 00:49:20.800
and there wasn't too many dudes talking
in blazes on stage to Offenceville, but

745
00:49:20.880 --> 00:49:23.320
it was it was still just difficult
not to think about that, and the

746
00:49:23.519 --> 00:49:27.920
landscape the industry is in right now
is scary in a bunch of ways.

747
00:49:28.559 --> 00:49:32.639
For Gears, I think like going
back to its roots. Before I watched

748
00:49:32.679 --> 00:49:36.519
it, I kept saying I didn't
really care about another Gears, and I'm

749
00:49:36.519 --> 00:49:38.679
a huge Gears fan. Like I
Gears one through three I absolutely adore,

750
00:49:38.679 --> 00:49:40.719
and I was like, I don't
really need more from that franchise. I'm

751
00:49:40.760 --> 00:49:44.519
kind of okay. It's not that
I don't like the more recent games,

752
00:49:44.559 --> 00:49:45.320
I just kind of don't need more
of them. And then I was like

753
00:49:45.360 --> 00:49:50.360
they went with yeah, oh shit, because I've read all those books that

754
00:49:50.440 --> 00:49:52.840
I read them comics, and I
was super excited about it. Man,

755
00:49:52.840 --> 00:49:58.360
they gonna sink jacinto you know what
I mean. It's crazy, super super

756
00:49:58.440 --> 00:50:00.840
super excited about it. I imagine
they're gonna like gearsb Gears. We'll see

757
00:50:00.840 --> 00:50:04.440
some new Horde mode updates, we'll
see some new multiplayer stuff. And I

758
00:50:04.599 --> 00:50:07.920
Spicy Take also a big Perfect Dark
fan. I think Perfect Dark is better

759
00:50:07.960 --> 00:50:10.199
than Gold and Eye. Shut up, everybody, shut up, shut your

760
00:50:10.239 --> 00:50:15.559
mount shut sh shut up. Shut. I think it might be right.

761
00:50:15.840 --> 00:50:20.480
It's they're very similar, but Perfect
Duction's a little bit better. And I

762
00:50:20.519 --> 00:50:24.960
don't know, I'm a little apprehensive
about it because it looked it looks very

763
00:50:24.960 --> 00:50:28.519
different. Obviously it's a pretty different
era, but I was like, there

764
00:50:28.519 --> 00:50:31.400
were some parts of it that I
was like a little Watchdogs, maybe a

765
00:50:31.440 --> 00:50:37.119
little a little dishonored. I'm just
not sure yet. Like in Prince,

766
00:50:37.199 --> 00:50:40.199
I love Joanna Dark, I love
that well. It was nice to see

767
00:50:40.280 --> 00:50:43.480
Day to Dine, like it's nice
to see Carrington, Like there are so

768
00:50:43.480 --> 00:50:45.519
many references that I loved in there, but I'm just I'm just not sure

769
00:50:45.800 --> 00:50:50.320
yet. And I felt kind of
similar about Fable as a huge Fable fan,

770
00:50:50.360 --> 00:50:52.519
where I was like, it almost
felt to me like dragon Asian Fables

771
00:50:52.519 --> 00:50:55.880
should have been swapped in the way
that the art styles are presented. Yeah,

772
00:50:55.920 --> 00:50:59.440
Like I love the sense of humor
in that Fable trailer, but it's

773
00:50:59.519 --> 00:51:05.079
just the cartooniness was there for dragon
Age and less there for Fable. I

774
00:51:05.079 --> 00:51:07.440
don't know. I'm sure I will
eat my woods and love you. Yeah,

775
00:51:07.679 --> 00:51:08.960
I mean, apparently you have people
have been seeing dragon Age, and

776
00:51:09.000 --> 00:51:12.519
who knows what they're gonna say once
they're actually able to talk about that or

777
00:51:12.519 --> 00:51:14.840
whatever. But it's like you're right
in the moment when I was looking at

778
00:51:14.840 --> 00:51:16.159
I'm like, yeah, that these
tones do seem a little off, but

779
00:51:16.719 --> 00:51:21.920
yeah, when it comes back to
Perfect Dark, I did think I was

780
00:51:22.039 --> 00:51:25.280
glad it wasn't immediately like here's a
shooter level after shooter level after shooter level.

781
00:51:25.440 --> 00:51:28.599
Like I want them to like take
this idea and do a little bit

782
00:51:28.599 --> 00:51:30.519
more with it. I think about
the in the first game, the laptop

783
00:51:30.679 --> 00:51:32.880
turret that you like exactly what I
said. I was like, where's the

784
00:51:32.960 --> 00:51:37.159
laftop gun? Right? Yeah?
But I mean like this game feels like

785
00:51:37.159 --> 00:51:39.840
it could have that based on what
they showed Aliens, yes, exactly right

786
00:51:39.880 --> 00:51:45.159
and Aliens yeah. So I'm like, I'm really hopeful. Uh but I

787
00:51:45.199 --> 00:51:46.960
think the point you mentioned a second
ago about not being able to like not

788
00:51:47.039 --> 00:51:51.760
think about Tango and not be able
to do nothink about the layoffs, it

789
00:51:51.880 --> 00:51:54.559
is like they need to get past
that. They need The only real way

790
00:51:54.599 --> 00:51:58.039
they could do that is not necessarily
by coming out on a stage like this

791
00:51:58.119 --> 00:52:00.039
and talking the way they have been. It is through by putting out games

792
00:52:00.039 --> 00:52:04.519
that succeed and can pay people's paychecks. Do you think that they're on their

793
00:52:04.559 --> 00:52:07.599
way there? I do, Yeah, I do. I do think they're

794
00:52:07.639 --> 00:52:10.880
on their way there. It just
goes back to why I kept saying nine

795
00:52:10.920 --> 00:52:16.239
point five. It's they have so
many valuable ips at this point across,

796
00:52:16.480 --> 00:52:22.400
but there's the Xbox Game Studios and
Activision that you got to get it together

797
00:52:22.440 --> 00:52:24.760
at some point. And I was
like, this is their opportunity to show

798
00:52:24.800 --> 00:52:29.679
that they have that roadmap and can
get to that cadence because going back to

799
00:52:29.719 --> 00:52:31.800
your point about twenty twenty five,
if all of those games come out in

800
00:52:31.800 --> 00:52:35.679
twenty twenty five, that is crazy. It feels like a very different world.

801
00:52:35.760 --> 00:52:42.400
They brand left Auto Yeah really,
yeah, it's what else were they

802
00:52:42.400 --> 00:52:45.679
supposed to do? Like, yeah, when you then it sucks. You

803
00:52:45.679 --> 00:52:46.840
know, I've got friend, I
had a friend who got laid off on

804
00:52:46.880 --> 00:52:52.239
his birthday. Like it just it
fucking sucks. But I don't like saying

805
00:52:52.239 --> 00:52:57.159
but in this context, when you
have a bunch of acquisitions, layoffs are

806
00:52:57.159 --> 00:53:01.360
always inevitable and it sucks to get
no matter what. And I can't rationalize

807
00:53:01.360 --> 00:53:05.599
what's happened, and it feels like
a huge loss again, not to it

808
00:53:05.719 --> 00:53:08.320
just diminished the other studios. But
Tango, it's like you had the evil

809
00:53:08.320 --> 00:53:14.159
within and when you I just don't
understand. Yeah, I still don't understand.

810
00:53:14.440 --> 00:53:16.000
But like I don't know what Phil
could ever say that would make it

811
00:53:16.039 --> 00:53:20.320
make sense really, like what is
he supposed to do? Yep? I

812
00:53:20.320 --> 00:53:23.679
mean the thing he says is like
he doesn't have the luxury of not having

813
00:53:23.679 --> 00:53:27.400
these studios not make money. And
that's just what it came down to,

814
00:53:27.480 --> 00:53:30.119
is they just didn't make enough money. And it's like, well, isn't

815
00:53:30.159 --> 00:53:31.599
that what happened with Tango? Did
we confirm that? I mean, that

816
00:53:31.719 --> 00:53:34.599
is what happened. Yeah, if
this has to have been I guess if

817
00:53:34.599 --> 00:53:37.079
these studios were making enough money,
they wouldn't have been closed to it is

818
00:53:37.119 --> 00:53:39.000
what I've been told over and over
again. And it's but I get to

819
00:53:39.000 --> 00:53:42.960
the point where I'm like, whose
fault is that? Well, yeah,

820
00:53:42.960 --> 00:53:47.559
because I was to say it really
is just a the aspect of like the

821
00:53:47.559 --> 00:53:52.079
the the barrier of like what is
making a lot of money? I remember

822
00:53:52.280 --> 00:53:54.440
talking about a thread of this,
Like the idea of what what making a

823
00:53:54.440 --> 00:53:58.800
lot of money is is so much
different. You know, like a game

824
00:53:58.880 --> 00:54:02.320
like Apex met just making a billion
dollars in two years and everyone's like,

825
00:54:02.360 --> 00:54:05.239
yeah, that's the floor, and
it's like no, no, no,

826
00:54:05.119 --> 00:54:08.000
no, no, that's flim team. Yeah, yeah, that's the problem.

827
00:54:08.039 --> 00:54:12.280
Yeah, and I think it's it's
when you kind of hand it over

828
00:54:12.320 --> 00:54:16.239
to shareholders and people who only are
concerned with money. You less care about

829
00:54:16.760 --> 00:54:22.840
creating good games that people enjoy,
and more about how's a way to get

830
00:54:22.880 --> 00:54:28.840
as much money out of the return
customers as possible with as little work and

831
00:54:29.000 --> 00:54:32.400
a fewer employees as possible. That's
that's just why it's at odds, and

832
00:54:32.440 --> 00:54:37.159
it's something that's happening just across all
industries. I'm seeing it not only in

833
00:54:37.199 --> 00:54:39.599
the game industry, but in the
TV industry. That's why your boy been

834
00:54:39.639 --> 00:54:43.039
streaming a lot now, you know. So, yeah, I guess I

835
00:54:43.119 --> 00:54:45.760
need you all to come out with
these games since that's what I gonna be

836
00:54:45.760 --> 00:54:49.360
based on. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, I guess because I ain't doing

837
00:54:49.400 --> 00:54:52.480
shit. But but no, it
really is, you know, to to

838
00:54:52.559 --> 00:54:55.840
not be to answer kind of the
question you were as uh, to answer

839
00:54:55.880 --> 00:55:00.760
the question you were asking. I
think that it is interest right is.

840
00:55:00.840 --> 00:55:05.119
I think we need some of these
more kind of surprise smash hits from smaller

841
00:55:05.159 --> 00:55:08.519
studios like your hell Divers, which
is like, oh see, that's the

842
00:55:08.599 --> 00:55:13.679
key. It isn't like making sure
it's a live as a service game.

843
00:55:13.719 --> 00:55:17.800
It's not you know, resting on
like super old ips and sequels. It's

844
00:55:17.840 --> 00:55:22.840
like making a game that people connect
with, enjoy playing, and want to

845
00:55:22.880 --> 00:55:25.400
give money to because they're having a
good time. I don't think there's a

846
00:55:25.559 --> 00:55:30.360
Jedi mind trick that you can put
in a video game that will make us

847
00:55:30.360 --> 00:55:32.440
want to pay for it. Is
just a fun game that's like, yeah,

848
00:55:32.559 --> 00:55:37.239
I do want this cool helmet,
you know, like that's really all

849
00:55:37.239 --> 00:55:40.760
it is. And on the subject
of contracting and streamlining their business model,

850
00:55:42.559 --> 00:55:45.840
every game in that showcase, for
the most part, was a day one

851
00:55:45.960 --> 00:55:51.800
game pass release, which I imagine
that they are doing the numbers and they

852
00:55:51.840 --> 00:55:55.159
are doing the logistical work to say, how are we making this possible that

853
00:55:55.199 --> 00:55:59.360
we are making money on games?
Like, if that is our model to

854
00:55:59.360 --> 00:56:02.480
be releasing every thing day of day
one game pass, how is this going

855
00:56:02.519 --> 00:56:06.719
to work? How do we have
to call things to make that work?

856
00:56:07.079 --> 00:56:09.639
Would like to see the numbers.
I want Phil show us the numbers.

857
00:56:09.960 --> 00:56:14.800
I also like the thing that kind
of blew my mind with with cod blop

858
00:56:14.920 --> 00:56:22.119
six, which I love saying cod
blob six please yes? Was they announced

859
00:56:22.199 --> 00:56:27.440
or they disclosed that their current player
base is like one hundred million per month

860
00:56:27.559 --> 00:56:30.960
or something wild astronomical, and there's
still their target is to grow that,

861
00:56:31.280 --> 00:56:34.719
which for me, I'd be like, you did it, You did it,

862
00:56:34.760 --> 00:56:37.519
guys, you got it. I
did it. I bought the Gundam

863
00:56:37.559 --> 00:56:39.920
skin. I bought the Warhammer skin, the dumb skin. Shout out,

864
00:56:40.840 --> 00:56:45.159
who assumes back then, unless yeah, yeah, yeah, we've got to

865
00:56:45.440 --> 00:56:51.559
Ki supporting us. Yeah. Who
has been grinding on call of duty to

866
00:56:51.639 --> 00:56:54.840
get all of the Gundam unlocks very
recently. Isn't that Jacob bulletin in the

867
00:56:54.920 --> 00:57:01.559
house? Is that whenever? Yeah? Yeah, he's been streaming in my

868
00:57:01.559 --> 00:57:05.440
living room to try to unlock all
of the Gundam skins. And there's this

869
00:57:05.559 --> 00:57:07.920
really I think it's cha who like
pushes somebody off a legend, a gift.

870
00:57:08.039 --> 00:57:12.480
It's all so worth it. But
that's why we're out in video games

871
00:57:12.480 --> 00:57:15.440
now. We've got the Warhammer skins, you know, And I put the

872
00:57:15.480 --> 00:57:16.519
thing that I always think about,
is it enough? Is I had a

873
00:57:16.519 --> 00:57:22.280
conversation one time with someone who runs
a very successful YouTube channel, and they

874
00:57:22.280 --> 00:57:25.239
were like, I'm just trying to
make enough money that at some point I

875
00:57:25.280 --> 00:57:28.960
can, you know, just like
disappear off the end of it, and

876
00:57:29.000 --> 00:57:32.440
I was like, if you can't
do that, now can anybody? How

877
00:57:32.440 --> 00:57:37.239
can any of us ever fucking do
that? Like millions and millions of subscribers,

878
00:57:37.280 --> 00:57:40.280
And I was like, are we
just all being tricked all the time

879
00:57:40.400 --> 00:57:45.920
into not enough money? Ever?
And like I think the games industry is

880
00:57:45.960 --> 00:57:47.679
in that exact same space again.
I blame fee for Ultimate Team. Personally,

881
00:57:49.079 --> 00:57:52.079
it's like it's never enough fucking money, and it's just it's very,

882
00:57:52.199 --> 00:57:58.360
very scary. I know, it's
it's very because what really kind of starts

883
00:57:58.400 --> 00:58:00.400
to create at you is when you
act. We do read these like you

884
00:58:00.440 --> 00:58:04.360
know, Wall Street Journal articles where
you look at the numbers, like when

885
00:58:04.360 --> 00:58:07.360
you when you see the numbers,
like I think it was like before the

886
00:58:07.440 --> 00:58:09.360
act, Division Lands was like,
well we said we were gonna make two

887
00:58:09.400 --> 00:58:13.800
billion, and we only made one
billion dollars, Just like, oh you

888
00:58:13.880 --> 00:58:17.320
only made one billion dollars. Cool
some people eating a sugar sandwich, you

889
00:58:17.360 --> 00:58:22.079
know, and you're saying you only
made a billion dollars and for who you

890
00:58:22.119 --> 00:58:23.400
know? And I think, then
you're gonna get me in my other bag

891
00:58:23.440 --> 00:58:27.800
because I go come from one industry
with a union that was just on strike

892
00:58:27.840 --> 00:58:30.719
because you're gonna pay us our money
or you're not gonna get TV. And

893
00:58:30.719 --> 00:58:35.079
then I come to this other million, this other industry where I created a

894
00:58:35.199 --> 00:58:37.480
character. I don't work for the
company anymore, and the character is selling

895
00:58:37.480 --> 00:58:40.599
skins for them, and that that
company, the people at top, are

896
00:58:40.639 --> 00:58:45.639
getting the money indefinitely, even though
I helped write that character. Oh what

897
00:58:45.679 --> 00:58:50.840
about your residuals Oh, oh that's
you don't do they they they they shot

898
00:58:50.920 --> 00:58:55.440
me when I asked that. But
yeah, it's very and there's a and

899
00:58:55.760 --> 00:59:00.719
uh, you know, the conversation
is starting to pop and it's going to

900
00:59:00.760 --> 00:59:04.719
be a very uncomfortable one. But
it is like the problem here is that

901
00:59:04.800 --> 00:59:08.760
the people making money from a lot
of these really great games aren't even the

902
00:59:08.800 --> 00:59:15.159
people who are in the studios clocking
those hours writing those lines that we love,

903
00:59:15.440 --> 00:59:17.800
doing those animation loops doing it.
It is the person in the suit

904
00:59:17.880 --> 00:59:22.440
that like watches the presentation video and
go, yeah, that's good. You

905
00:59:22.480 --> 00:59:25.480
know. Yeah. It does make
me think. The conversation that I've been

906
00:59:25.480 --> 00:59:29.960
having with myself the past few months
as all this has been happening, is

907
00:59:30.440 --> 00:59:34.400
what benefit do we get from these
corporations that really do drive this it's never

908
00:59:34.559 --> 00:59:37.079
enough and we have to have growth. And I mean, obviously you can

909
00:59:37.079 --> 00:59:39.719
look at the history and it's like
they were able to make some bigger games,

910
00:59:39.760 --> 00:59:43.920
but I'm at a point where those
don't excite me that much anymore.

911
00:59:44.400 --> 00:59:47.480
And so I really do wonder what
are we getting from these corporations forcing everyone

912
00:59:47.519 --> 00:59:50.840
to be like, no, get
back to the minds. We need more

913
00:59:50.840 --> 00:59:52.239
and more and more. I mean, is there any benefit to them?

914
00:59:52.360 --> 00:59:58.000
I don't know. How are you
all feeling about it? It's tough because

915
00:59:58.079 --> 01:00:01.599
I think, to be blunt,
a lot of the sameness is coming from

916
01:00:01.639 --> 01:00:07.480
some of the bigger companies and corporations, whereas the innovative and iterative stuff that's

917
01:00:07.559 --> 01:00:10.639
really really cool and excites me is
coming from smaller companies and developers, like

918
01:00:12.000 --> 01:00:15.159
so many of the smaller things that
I was jazzed about in the SGF Showcase,

919
01:00:15.639 --> 01:00:20.239
PC Game Show Day of the devs
in Xbox, where like the small

920
01:00:20.280 --> 01:00:25.239
games like UFO fifty looks. So
I'm just describing it as a concept album

921
01:00:25.480 --> 01:00:29.519
as a video game because they have
the whole lore behind it, and I'm

922
01:00:29.519 --> 01:00:31.519
like, that's so cool. Nobody
else is doing that. I love it

923
01:00:31.559 --> 01:00:38.920
the whole Blumhouse catalog just looks so
cool. Like there's just so many of

924
01:00:38.920 --> 01:00:45.199
these smaller dams that were taking chances
and have you know, their praising or

925
01:00:45.199 --> 01:00:49.719
they're pushing style over fidelity, and
I'm totally there for it. I will

926
01:00:49.719 --> 01:00:54.000
also say it's hot for the dev
teams. Like the longer those cycles get,

927
01:00:54.679 --> 01:00:58.840
people get burnt out. YEA.
Dev teams get tired. Like,

928
01:00:58.920 --> 01:01:01.199
you know, you've got artists who
are incredibly talented, they get tired of

929
01:01:01.239 --> 01:01:06.519
making the same fucking art for seven
years. I can't even imagine what working

930
01:01:06.519 --> 01:01:08.320
at rock Star is like. Yeah, like you just work on something for

931
01:01:08.360 --> 01:01:10.719
so long that looks the same and
has the same DNA, Like, you

932
01:01:10.760 --> 01:01:14.159
lose a lot of talent, You
lose a lot of senior talent because people

933
01:01:14.199 --> 01:01:16.920
just get tired of Like the bloat
is also really bad for those teams.

934
01:01:17.119 --> 01:01:22.039
Well, what you're talking about is
actually what kind of scares me. There's

935
01:01:22.039 --> 01:01:25.360
two things something you said earlier.
We don't just make game, Like game

936
01:01:25.440 --> 01:01:28.280
just can't be a game, all
right, You pick it up, you

937
01:01:28.320 --> 01:01:30.519
play it, and it's done,
you put it down and you move on

938
01:01:30.599 --> 01:01:34.599
to something else. It has to
be sustainable, it has to be long

939
01:01:34.719 --> 01:01:37.960
term. It has to keep you
engaged. Like I played Destiny, I've

940
01:01:37.960 --> 01:01:40.400
been playing it for ten years now. That game was designed with the carrot

941
01:01:40.440 --> 01:01:44.440
on the stick to constantly keep me
playing it. But what you just said,

942
01:01:44.480 --> 01:01:46.880
Alana, is the other part from
the creator standpoint is sure, the

943
01:01:47.000 --> 01:01:51.239
artists are tired of making the same
shit over and over, but what are

944
01:01:51.239 --> 01:01:54.039
they doing now? They're getting AI
to replace those people to make that art

945
01:01:54.079 --> 01:01:58.840
that they don't want to keep making
over and over. So to everything you're

946
01:01:58.880 --> 01:02:02.000
saying, it just makes me wonder
where is this industry headed, you know,

947
01:02:02.079 --> 01:02:07.079
as far from a creator standpoint and
from a customer standpoint, are we

948
01:02:07.159 --> 01:02:08.960
just going to get the same shit
over and over or are we going to

949
01:02:09.039 --> 01:02:14.199
have risk? Are we going to
see unique games and ideas be pumped out

950
01:02:14.320 --> 01:02:17.320
or is it just about play it
safe, make something, put out,

951
01:02:17.320 --> 01:02:22.239
something that's going to make us money
and quote unquote continue to grow the business.

952
01:02:22.400 --> 01:02:27.360
I think the what happens with this
because you know, everything that has

953
01:02:27.400 --> 01:02:30.639
happened has happened before, right right, And I think as much as it

954
01:02:30.760 --> 01:02:35.880
is often misconstrued, misused and appropriated, there's something about the punk soul that

955
01:02:35.960 --> 01:02:37.679
lives in all art. It always
lives in all art. I was hanging

956
01:02:37.679 --> 01:02:40.800
out with a bunch of indie devs
last night and is still there. And

957
01:02:40.840 --> 01:02:46.000
I think that's what happens is when
you have these monster corporations come and they

958
01:02:46.239 --> 01:02:52.360
go ahead and they acquisition and they
make game dev everything, and it becomes

959
01:02:52.480 --> 01:02:55.119
more and more of the same,
and they annualize video games, there's still

960
01:02:55.159 --> 01:03:00.199
those few passionate folks who want to
create what they do, Like I think

961
01:03:00.239 --> 01:03:04.639
about because I do so many different
forms of art, I get to see

962
01:03:04.679 --> 01:03:07.320
the same thing happen in many different
ways. A couple of years ago,

963
01:03:07.800 --> 01:03:12.800
UCP blew up. It didn't blow
up. I mean it just like metaphorically

964
01:03:12.880 --> 01:03:15.239
blew up. It was closed for
a bit, and so you had like

965
01:03:15.360 --> 01:03:19.920
no improvisers were able to like perform
at any of these ten pole studios.

966
01:03:19.960 --> 01:03:23.039
Everything was kind of shut and they
were just finding, like renting out places

967
01:03:23.079 --> 01:03:28.320
and like doing these shows. And
it felt back to back when I first

968
01:03:28.320 --> 01:03:30.960
started improv and there was these exciting
shows where it's a bunch of passionate people.

969
01:03:31.159 --> 01:03:35.119
And I think the same thing is
going to happen with gaming is as

970
01:03:35.199 --> 01:03:38.920
you acquire and you make these like
kind of gray slop of video games with

971
01:03:39.000 --> 01:03:43.760
Carrocks on the stick and some of
the outliers that are good because, like

972
01:03:43.800 --> 01:03:46.000
you know, for what it's worth. I think Destiny games like Destiny and

973
01:03:46.079 --> 01:03:51.920
Apex they work because like that is
like the genre of what they're making,

974
01:03:52.000 --> 01:03:54.000
like it serves a purpose. And
I think I don't have a problem with

975
01:03:54.039 --> 01:03:58.400
them live as a service game.
I have a problem of forcing it of

976
01:03:58.400 --> 01:04:00.280
a game that's like, oh,
this would have been a rate single player

977
01:04:00.360 --> 01:04:03.599
game, but you forced it to
be alive as a service so you can

978
01:04:03.679 --> 01:04:08.559
keep getting money. I wasn't gonna
say it, but you said it,

979
01:04:08.599 --> 01:04:12.920
and you're right. But you know, I think that's where happened. I'm

980
01:04:12.960 --> 01:04:17.039
seeing so much exciting things happening on
indie dev Twitter. They get me so

981
01:04:17.079 --> 01:04:20.000
excited that I so much. I'm
like, I want to make sure that

982
01:04:20.199 --> 01:04:25.079
I'm talking about those more and I'm
doing what I can to shine the spotlight

983
01:04:25.119 --> 01:04:29.159
on them, because that's what we're
gonna have to lean on while the industry

984
01:04:29.239 --> 01:04:39.639
kind of figures itself out Right,
I'd like to hear from the pickle I

985
01:04:39.679 --> 01:04:43.679
agree. Can I ask the four
of you a question, what is something

986
01:04:43.760 --> 01:04:45.840
you've seen? I assume you've all
been to some again pest play days.

987
01:04:45.960 --> 01:04:48.960
If you've seen something cool that you
know it's not a Triple A game that

988
01:04:49.000 --> 01:04:54.239
you really liked. I mean,
I'm gonna just rush and say that hyper

989
01:04:54.280 --> 01:04:59.800
Light Drifter sequel, you know,
yeah, hyper Light Breaker. I mean

990
01:05:00.079 --> 01:05:01.039
you. I love the look,
I love the style. I love that.

991
01:05:01.400 --> 01:05:03.760
I was when that, when that
draw, I was like, yeah,

992
01:05:03.960 --> 01:05:08.480
we're back. We are so fucking
back. And and that's the stuff

993
01:05:08.519 --> 01:05:12.400
that keeps me excited. I'm gonna
give a duck to somebody. All right,

994
01:05:12.440 --> 01:05:15.320
that's three ducks. I'm sorry I
didn't. I didn't get to play

995
01:05:15.360 --> 01:05:20.480
it, but they debuted it in
the SGF showcase. But never Neva from

996
01:05:21.079 --> 01:05:26.000
the studio that made I know it's
Chris. But I in my head,

997
01:05:26.000 --> 01:05:28.840
I always say greed because in French
that's how you would say it. And

998
01:05:28.880 --> 01:05:33.960
I'm Canadian, and you know,
yeah, I feel laqua and I look

999
01:05:34.039 --> 01:05:38.599
down at anyone that says Lacroix.
Well on the website they say it's pronounced

1000
01:05:38.639 --> 01:05:44.039
lacroix. Do they really like enjoy? They're wrong? But but yeah,

1001
01:05:44.039 --> 01:05:48.480
that game looks beautiful. It uh
like I'm that's day one for me.

1002
01:05:48.679 --> 01:05:53.000
To play that. So is that
the one with the dog White Fall?

1003
01:05:53.599 --> 01:05:55.599
And I also thought it was People
told me it was a fox and I

1004
01:05:55.599 --> 01:05:59.360
said that's a dog. Yeah,
so thank you? Is it gonna please

1005
01:05:59.400 --> 01:06:01.199
tell me that dog's going to live? You think it's okay? You know,

1006
01:06:01.320 --> 01:06:04.320
let's not talk about that. And
I just see one in the game

1007
01:06:04.360 --> 01:06:06.960
and I'm boy, here we go, here we go, here we go

1008
01:06:08.000 --> 01:06:10.840
again. If he dies, it
will not be in vain. I can

1009
01:06:10.920 --> 01:06:15.199
promise you that, now, how
about you? Paris? So I hope

1010
01:06:15.199 --> 01:06:17.639
I'm saying the name right. But
it was Blumhouse Games and it was Feared

1011
01:06:17.639 --> 01:06:20.079
of Spot. Yeah, that's the
one. I was going to say,

1012
01:06:20.079 --> 01:06:21.760
as well, I can get a
chance to play it, did you?

1013
01:06:21.840 --> 01:06:26.599
Yeah? I got people's shoulder.
It's so eye catching. Yes again,

1014
01:06:26.760 --> 01:06:30.639
nineties everything nineties right to that.
But I love the narrative horror aspect of

1015
01:06:30.719 --> 01:06:35.119
it, and that vibe is something
I really connect with. So, yeah,

1016
01:06:35.119 --> 01:06:38.639
there was a husband and wife making
that. They left their jobs,

1017
01:06:38.679 --> 01:06:40.320
yeah, to go make it.
They're like, we want to make some

1018
01:06:42.559 --> 01:06:45.920
They left their jobs, had a
kid and they started making a game incredible

1019
01:06:45.960 --> 01:06:49.159
and Blumhouse was there to catch him. And I'm like I love the whole

1020
01:06:49.320 --> 01:06:55.559
Blumhouse showcase was maybe my highlight of
Sgt. Stardu value with murder? Is

1021
01:06:55.599 --> 01:06:59.039
that not just the best pitch you
ever heard? Yes? So good.

1022
01:06:59.079 --> 01:07:00.840
I feel the same way about on
a Pana where it's like these studios just

1023
01:07:01.199 --> 01:07:04.599
I mean Devolva as well, we
have to give you everything, just only

1024
01:07:04.639 --> 01:07:09.199
releasing bangus. I know, hire
me Devolver where I know you in the

1025
01:07:09.239 --> 01:07:13.320
audience somewhere hitch you boy. I
did get the wrap it up. So

1026
01:07:13.480 --> 01:07:16.679
but before we go where we all
work making stuff around video games. We're

1027
01:07:16.679 --> 01:07:19.599
still feeling good about that overall,
right, Like we've been through this before,

1028
01:07:19.679 --> 01:07:21.840
we'll keep getting through it. Everyone's
still feeling pretty good about it.

1029
01:07:23.039 --> 01:07:26.199
Oh yeah, if we didn't love
video again, I know, I'm so

1030
01:07:26.320 --> 01:07:30.159
passionate about it. The thing I'm
working on is not announced yet. It

1031
01:07:30.199 --> 01:07:32.159
will have three a's in it,
but just no, I'm a part of

1032
01:07:32.199 --> 01:07:38.079
it so you can like it.
Uh oh yeah, all right, Well

1033
01:07:38.079 --> 01:07:40.559
that's gonna do it for this one. Everybody, Thank you guys so much.

1034
01:07:40.599 --> 01:07:45.400
That was excellent. We'll be back
with more, uh and more gifts

1035
01:07:45.400 --> 01:07:49.519
from Young Yelmo. Look out for
that. There's ducks going out there,

1036
01:07:49.559 --> 01:07:56.800
watch out. Yeah, you can
just drop it right there. Thanks man,

1037
01:07:56.840 --> 01:08:05.639
I appreciate absolutely, Thank you guys. All right, lord come,

1038
01:08:10.400 --> 01:08:14.760
I am stepping on so many ducks. Yeah, there's ducks everywhere. Yes,

1039
01:08:15.000 --> 01:08:18.960
a brad forgot his pool noodles.
Yeah, brag you forgot your pool

1040
01:08:19.000 --> 01:08:28.079
noodle, Francisco. Yeah, here's
another. I tried to throw it gently

1041
01:08:28.119 --> 01:08:30.880
because you know, things build up
inertia and then they can be painful.

1042
01:08:30.880 --> 01:08:35.960
But yeah, if anybody wants a
duck, there's there's many on the stage.

1043
01:08:38.319 --> 01:08:43.640
But Grub apparently doesn't have respect for
rubber animals, as he is currently

1044
01:08:43.760 --> 01:08:45.960
stomping on them. Oh, I
found another one right by my feet.

1045
01:08:45.960 --> 01:08:47.720
I'm gonna take over my kid.
This is this is according to Jana,

I I was told to go to Elma.

01:09:27.840 --> 01:09:30.880
It's the final round. It's the
most exciting rounded prizes. This is

just because the British slightly different. Well

1057
01:10:09.600 --> 01:10:12.760
we have there's a way that we
can figure out if it's simply because they're

1058
01:10:12.760 --> 01:10:16.319
British. A recent addition to the
giant bomb team behind all of the fire

I need you to go to young
Elmo and see if it's just that

1062
01:10:30.199 --> 01:10:35.439
he's racist against British people. Yep, no, he's saying, whoa why

1064
01:10:41.880 --> 01:10:47.319

1065
01:10:47.399 --> 01:10:55.800
instead. A native Angelino, also
very famously the parent of a very cute

1066
01:10:55.960 --> 01:11:05.920
dog. We have got Nikky Grayson

01:12:06.760 --> 01:12:12.920
doubt, the hardest working man at
Giant Barber. Please welcome to the stage.

the person who keeps coming out in

1081
01:12:43.920 --> 01:12:48.319
between every single segment during this show. To MC it it's em a fun

1082
01:12:59.039 --> 01:13:12.760
who wow almost me? Okay,
all right, well how about this.

1083
01:13:13.840 --> 01:13:18.760
He's certainly tight with young Elmo as
the person who's been speaking on his behalf

1084
01:13:18.760 --> 01:13:23.680
for this entire show. Everybody welcome, to the stage, Dan Riker,

There's another ball in here, and
it's for the Prize of the night.

1089
01:13:46.840 --> 01:13:51.239
Okay, Well, I guess that
could only mean that this is our

1090
01:13:51.319 --> 01:13:58.399
very last chance to see young Elmo
give away the grand prize of the night.

1091
01:13:58.439 --> 01:14:00.319
I have to assume with the way
he is pretty acting it. Everyone,

1092
01:14:00.680 --> 01:14:05.920

1111
01:15:56.319 --> 01:16:08.239
rotation here for the camera. Let's
get to that. Like all right,

1112
01:16:08.399 --> 01:16:10.720
now, let's turn it. Keep
your eyes closed, turn it to mic.

1113
01:16:14.279 --> 01:16:31.680
Alright, three. That was horrifying. Wow, hey, the feet

1114
01:16:31.760 --> 01:16:35.720
are way worse this year. Yeah. Yeah, it's so much worse,

1115
01:16:39.760 --> 01:16:43.319
really terrible. Now let's let's get
into this here. I heard the inside's

1116
01:16:43.319 --> 01:16:46.760
pretty unique as well. Janey have
the knife. Oh boy, I'm not

1117
01:16:46.760 --> 01:16:49.640
a chef. I don't know.
It looks like Amber Tambling in the ring.

1118
01:16:50.159 --> 01:16:55.239
Fat Lemon SD on Instagram follow her, She's incredible. She says that

1119
01:16:55.359 --> 01:17:00.760
she hated having this iner house last
night. Oh, cut a good slice

1120
01:17:00.760 --> 01:17:05.319
off the head. I don't want
a piece of the feet this time.

1121
01:17:06.079 --> 01:17:10.680
Who wants the feet? Who wants
the feet? Everyone's raising their hand.

1122
01:17:11.079 --> 01:17:19.680
Oh that's to holy middle toe.
There you go. Oh yeah, you

1123
01:17:19.680 --> 01:17:23.640
want to toe? Okay, Elma
wants the toe toes for everyone. Here

1124
01:17:23.680 --> 01:17:26.359
we go, Oh my god,
there we go. Take the toes.

1125
01:17:26.520 --> 01:17:32.359
Yeah. I was just traumatized by
watching to fly to the It's skittles inside

1126
01:17:32.359 --> 01:17:40.520
his head. Excellent. Okay,
that's really good. Oh wow, oh

1127
01:17:40.600 --> 01:17:47.159
my god, it's I can't believe
they made kwan chi whiss. Thought be

1128
01:17:47.159 --> 01:17:53.800
impossible, but thank you. The
detail on the ears is really impressive,

1129
01:17:54.880 --> 01:18:00.079
those vascularity fondant ears. Yeah.
I really want to get a ce tip

1130
01:18:00.079 --> 01:18:05.760
in there or something. They're they're
aching for it. I'm lightly concerned we

1131
01:18:05.840 --> 01:18:09.520
may have opened a portal to howl. But you know, yeah, it's

1132
01:18:09.520 --> 01:18:13.119
just skittles, actually, I think
so, Mitch, do you like this

1133
01:18:13.159 --> 01:18:23.960
one? Or the robo call?
Ye? Really good? Hey? Can

1134
01:18:24.000 --> 01:18:27.319
I get an eyeball? You know
what's exciting this is the skills is the

1135
01:18:27.359 --> 01:18:31.439
only fruit he's gonna eat. This
is the healthiest meal he's had in a

1136
01:18:31.479 --> 01:18:36.039
long time. Okay, are we
recovered from that? Or but we may

1137
01:18:36.079 --> 01:18:41.760
never recover from that. I had
half a bite and I'm on a sugar

1138
01:18:41.840 --> 01:18:44.520
rush. That's gonna list me a
week. Hell yeah, grab do I

1139
01:18:44.520 --> 01:18:47.000
still have a naughty in my beard? You're you no longer have naughty?

1140
01:18:47.239 --> 01:18:54.800
Okay? I am. I am
so relieved because like all weekend, I

1141
01:18:54.840 --> 01:18:57.720
would walk into rooms. They would
be like showing people his phone and people

1142
01:18:57.760 --> 01:19:00.720
be snickering. Then they would see
that I'm in there. Don't let him

1143
01:19:00.720 --> 01:19:03.680
see. I'm like, what are
you doing? What did you think it

1144
01:19:03.760 --> 01:19:05.720
was? You know what fucked up
is that? I didn't think it was

1145
01:19:05.720 --> 01:19:10.920
another cake of me? Never occurred
to me. I thought that some wrestler

1146
01:19:10.960 --> 01:19:14.279
was gonna come out here and kick
me in the nuts or something. Yeah,

1147
01:19:15.640 --> 01:19:20.039
note to sell, Yeah we take
a kick to the nuts. No,

1148
01:19:20.119 --> 01:19:25.239
but earlier today, really we were
showing the Manatti cake around and Mike

1149
01:19:25.399 --> 01:19:29.520
just sat at the table in defeat
and just we truly were like, what

1150
01:19:29.520 --> 01:19:31.079
do you think is going to happen
to you? And He's like, I

1151
01:19:31.119 --> 01:19:39.920
don't know, Keenny Omega is gonna
come punch me in the face. Likedangerously.

1152
01:19:40.079 --> 01:19:42.840
Look, he was dangerously close one
time to Kenny Omega feeding him a

1153
01:19:42.840 --> 01:19:45.760
bunch of fruit. Yeah, that
probably will still have so forget about that

1154
01:19:45.760 --> 01:19:48.960
that might happen. Yeah, you
never heard that. This isn't a green

1155
01:19:48.960 --> 01:19:53.119
apple feeling? Is it this green
thing? I don't know, I don't

1156
01:19:53.159 --> 01:19:55.960
I did not see green apples brought
up. I see green and I get

1157
01:19:55.960 --> 01:19:58.560
worried. Or maybe an apple component. I don't think it's green apple.

1158
01:19:58.920 --> 01:20:01.319
Have you had green apple candy like
Jollie Ranchers? Yeah? Disgusting? Really,

1159
01:20:01.399 --> 01:20:04.840
Oh terrible. No, it's like
a green butter cream. You'll be

1160
01:20:05.079 --> 01:20:10.479
I'm gonna I'm gonna have a bite. You guys talk amongst yourself. I

1161
01:20:10.479 --> 01:20:12.760
think it's more fucked up because you
can see your eyes on this one,

1162
01:20:12.840 --> 01:20:16.880
unlike the robocopcake. Yeah, it
was definitely a better resemblance. Somehow,

1163
01:20:16.920 --> 01:20:20.600
eating it was real weird. It
felt good to stab myself though. Shoud

1164
01:20:20.600 --> 01:20:25.079
I see a psychiatrist the past.
I enjoyed that process. That's a therapy.

1165
01:20:25.239 --> 01:20:27.560
Yeah, yeah, you should all
try to never mind. I shouldn't

1166
01:20:27.560 --> 01:20:33.520
say that. How is the how
is the Skittles cake combo? Is that

1167
01:20:33.600 --> 01:20:38.199
pairing? Well? Right, I've
got I've only had the Skittles so far

1168
01:20:38.239 --> 01:20:42.039
and they're very good. Yeah,
okay, yeah, all right, Hey

1169
01:20:42.079 --> 01:20:45.119
this is giant bombito. Sorry,
go ahead. Didn't he eat half a

1170
01:20:45.119 --> 01:20:47.279
bag of skills? Oh? Like
three backs of skittles in the last two

1171
01:20:47.319 --> 01:20:50.880
days? Yeah, you spent seventy
five dollars on skittles. We did eat

1172
01:20:50.880 --> 01:20:54.920
those slowly, but they're gone now
there there. That's the thing though,

1173
01:20:56.880 --> 01:20:59.760
because you ate a handful of skittles
and I was like, Dan, I

1174
01:20:59.760 --> 01:21:02.159
don't know if you should eat all
of these skittles just now. No yesterday,

1175
01:21:02.279 --> 01:21:08.760
oh okay, that was a handful. Now no, And I was

1176
01:21:08.760 --> 01:21:10.520
like, Dan, I don't think
should eat all this and you were like,

1177
01:21:10.760 --> 01:21:13.600
there's nothing to be done. I'll
eat all of them. And then

1178
01:21:13.640 --> 01:21:15.119
you kept eating them and then you
were like, oh, I feel sick.

1179
01:21:15.720 --> 01:21:17.960
Is it that I had to take
them all away fro you hit them?

1180
01:21:18.000 --> 01:21:20.680
And then I found them. And
in the last two and a half

1181
01:21:20.800 --> 01:21:25.319
days, I've eaten no less than
like two thy five hundred calories where the

1182
01:21:25.319 --> 01:21:28.119
skittles. See, weird, we're
how that goes. My teeth are doing

1183
01:21:28.159 --> 01:21:33.199
great, old behavior. The doctor
knows all about this. Your skittles,

1184
01:21:33.239 --> 01:21:38.039
Like that's what you're don't ask you
your skittles intake. They should clearly.

1185
01:21:39.119 --> 01:21:42.560
I am so worried about my next
Blake Club game now because like there's like

1186
01:21:42.640 --> 01:21:46.880
a more than fifty percent chance it's
gonna become a cake. Dan isn't actually

1187
01:21:46.920 --> 01:21:51.000
wearing a like sequin jacket. This
is what happens to your skin when you

1188
01:21:51.119 --> 01:21:56.199
have a lot of skills. Yeah, just scales now, Yeah, what

1189
01:21:56.239 --> 01:21:59.560
would be the worst cake that you
can imagine? Adult, I'm not going

1190
01:21:59.560 --> 01:22:03.359
over. That would be the worst
game you'd have to play for by And

1191
01:22:03.439 --> 01:22:05.760
we were so close. Yeah,
we were so close. It was right.

1192
01:22:05.800 --> 01:22:10.319
We'll figure it out. Yeah,
we'll get him absolutely Quantchi pretty up

1193
01:22:10.319 --> 01:22:13.439
there. I got a set pretty
good. That guy with the Quantchi fan

1194
01:22:13.520 --> 01:22:18.640
account who discovered attempts, they're gonna
be a real it's like Christmas for them

1195
01:22:19.199 --> 01:22:24.479
about that account, right now,
let him know I hate Hi Giant Palm.

1196
01:22:24.520 --> 01:22:30.720
How's it going. Hey, let's
hear it for Almo too, even

1197
01:22:30.720 --> 01:22:33.159
though he was kind of an asshole
in that last segment, right yeah,

1198
01:22:33.800 --> 01:22:38.399
real heel now, yeah, yeah, this is the beginning of his arc

Alma redemption arc. I had fun with

excited. Get him extremely early tomorrow.

1204
01:22:56.279 --> 01:22:59.399
Uh good. We want to talk

01:22:59.439 --> 01:23:03.920

1209
01:23:15.640 --> 01:23:18.880
mousey on over there from LA.
It's very difficult. The ubers are very

1210
01:23:18.920 --> 01:23:21.960
bad. I've done it before.
No, you have to do l A

1211
01:23:23.119 --> 01:23:25.640
traffic. It's a rough time.
I'm gonna be over there. I'm gonna

1212
01:23:25.680 --> 01:23:29.239
wake up real early and just mosey
on over walk through the World of Disney

1213
01:23:29.279 --> 01:23:33.600
store. Maybe get myself some Mickey
Shortbread cookies a Coke zero acause that's just

1214
01:23:33.640 --> 01:23:38.159
how I roll. It's gonna be
a good time. I'm gonna just stand

1215
01:23:38.159 --> 01:23:41.920
in that weird area between the two
parks where they play music. It's called

1216
01:23:41.960 --> 01:23:47.359
the Esplanade. Fake fucking fan get
his ass, so Hanna, he just

1217
01:23:47.479 --> 01:23:50.199
talks to himself. If anybody wants
to know where to find him tomorrow,

1218
01:23:51.119 --> 01:23:57.560
he's giving you very I was gonna
say, I recommend if you know where

1219
01:23:57.560 --> 01:24:02.000
he is, get further away from
you want to have best friend. Of

1220
01:24:02.039 --> 01:24:10.039
course, his best friend. I
feel like killing him, mole. We're

1221
01:24:10.039 --> 01:24:12.079
gonna have a good time. It's
gonna be great. What do you think

1222
01:24:12.079 --> 01:24:17.159
I'm gonna like the most. I
think you're at the Caribbean a lot.

1223
01:24:17.319 --> 01:24:20.000
Okay, No, you're like Indiana. Ju you. I bet you will

1224
01:24:20.039 --> 01:24:25.520
really appreciate the dull web situation with
the theming. It's right down the river.

1225
01:24:25.600 --> 01:24:28.840
There's gonna be a robot lady bird
who's gonna say some things. It's

1226
01:24:28.840 --> 01:24:30.600
gonna be good. I've had the
Costco doul Whip and it is very good.

1227
01:24:30.640 --> 01:24:33.600
Yeah this They have swirls here,
so you'll get the pineapple and the

1228
01:24:33.680 --> 01:24:36.720
cherry and like normally you say those
words, I'm like grouse. But it's

1229
01:24:36.720 --> 01:24:43.600
in Disneyland and that makes it Okay, you get why did you start him

1230
01:24:43.640 --> 01:24:49.079
down this path? I feel like
break Yeah, you know, peters himself

1231
01:24:49.079 --> 01:24:55.000
out like a toddler. So I
went well, I went to Disney World

1232
01:24:55.039 --> 01:24:57.359
a couple of times as an eighty
year old and thought it was lame.

1233
01:24:58.039 --> 01:25:01.840
And wo eight year old actually more
open minded now than when I was eight,

1234
01:25:02.119 --> 01:25:05.119
so I think there's a better chance
I'll enjoy it now. Were you

1235
01:25:05.159 --> 01:25:10.640
into when you were eight that Disneyland
was like a terminator in Mortal Kombat?

1236
01:25:10.760 --> 01:25:14.000
Yeah? Yeah, okay, yes, but I've never I went to Disneyland

1237
01:25:14.039 --> 01:25:18.600
briefly for Disney Mickey Island. That's
the one that's where I met Manati.

1238
01:25:18.720 --> 01:25:21.000
Yeah, I didn't think we did. We did a Star Wars ago,

1239
01:25:21.119 --> 01:25:24.279
right, Yeah, we did the
Star Wars stuff, and honestly, I

1240
01:25:24.319 --> 01:25:26.840
was like, I can I get
this. I put a bunch of care

1241
01:25:26.840 --> 01:25:29.880
into this, Like it's obviously like
if I was more into like all of

1242
01:25:29.880 --> 01:25:31.600
the IP and everything, I would
have been like super into it. So

1243
01:25:31.640 --> 01:25:34.279
like I kind of get it.
You love Donald Dutt, though, you

1244
01:25:34.279 --> 01:25:41.119
do is play quack Shot, which
John Dragson Quackshot is my favorite Disney thing.

1245
01:25:41.520 --> 01:25:44.039
That. Yeah, No, I
think I'll have a great time tomorrow.

1246
01:25:44.199 --> 01:25:45.560
We're gonna get shaken up and down
on Guardians and you're gonna love it,

1247
01:25:45.600 --> 01:25:48.960
don't Oh, It's so fun.
Man we did ask Dan to name

1248
01:25:49.159 --> 01:25:53.399
I believe what was it ten Disney
characters, and one of the ones he

1249
01:25:53.439 --> 01:26:00.199
said was Batman, so really really
batting a great average there eventually get there

1250
01:26:00.239 --> 01:26:05.560
you what are you working on over
there? Jam? Oh? The feet?

1251
01:26:06.199 --> 01:26:13.800
I have been eating MIC's feet?
How are they not the first time

1252
01:26:15.399 --> 01:26:18.000
it was? There's a cake last
year? Yeah? All right, growth,

1253
01:26:18.399 --> 01:26:21.279
grab my moisturizers getting in my ear? Oh there it is all right?

1254
01:26:21.359 --> 01:26:26.079
Get the camera off. Does anyone
want a piece of MIC's foot?

1255
01:26:26.199 --> 01:26:30.840
Are we allowed to? Wow?
That was way too many people. Man,

1256
01:26:30.880 --> 01:26:34.119
all right? How is the like
inside of the skull? I've only

1257
01:26:34.279 --> 01:26:38.960
like had the skintles. It's pretty
tasty. The cake you mean? Yeah,

1258
01:26:39.000 --> 01:26:45.039
the inside of your psychologically, his
gooey insides are delicious. Yeah.

1259
01:26:45.239 --> 01:26:46.680
Do you like it? Mike?
Yeah, it's great. It's very moist.

1260
01:26:46.760 --> 01:26:49.920
It's like a red velvet situation.
It's not an apple flavor of this

1261
01:26:49.960 --> 01:26:54.239
green stuff? No, pan,
Dan, which is a different fruit?

1262
01:26:54.439 --> 01:27:00.079
What hand hand does? Okay?
Now it's very nice. Is this the

1263
01:27:00.119 --> 01:27:04.119
same person who did it last time? Oh? YEAHSD on Instagram Jane Michael

1264
01:27:04.199 --> 01:27:14.479
Hyam, Yeah, Michael Higham.
She has driven both of these Minatti kicks

1265
01:27:14.520 --> 01:27:17.520
up from San Diego day of show
both times, right, real soldier.

1266
01:27:17.600 --> 01:27:21.359
It also does incredible work. It
really. I just send an email where

1267
01:27:21.359 --> 01:27:25.439
it's like, Okay, there's this
character Kuan Chi. Here's a photo to

1268
01:27:25.479 --> 01:27:28.319
base the whole thing off where his
eyes are kind of bulging and stuff,

1269
01:27:28.319 --> 01:27:30.520
and just that comes out. She's
incredible. We gotta work a little bit

1270
01:27:30.560 --> 01:27:34.560
of like some social media magic,
like another row massacre, a little bit

1271
01:27:34.600 --> 01:27:39.600
that we made a quan Chi cake, right, yeah, we will call

1272
01:27:39.079 --> 01:27:41.960
it. Don't ask why. It's
kind of like fat in the cheeks and

1273
01:27:42.000 --> 01:27:46.239
has a beard. Listen all tweet. I guess yeah, that's good.

1274
01:27:47.199 --> 01:27:49.760
Damn if you were gonna have a
cake made of your head, would you

1275
01:27:49.760 --> 01:27:54.640
want to be dressed up? I
would never want to see my face on

1276
01:27:54.720 --> 01:27:58.159
a cake. Eva. I think
it would cool as an existential crisis.

1277
01:27:58.199 --> 01:28:00.079
That's why I avoid mirrors. I
don't need to be looking at myself,

1278
01:28:00.520 --> 01:28:03.800
especially in edible form. But I
had to. I probably do like a

1279
01:28:03.840 --> 01:28:08.640
solid snake style thing, you know
something, it'll be that'll be easy.

1280
01:28:08.640 --> 01:28:12.199
I think that'll be a little delectable. Tim, you and I were in

1281
01:28:12.199 --> 01:28:14.800
the room today when they showed that
new Snake Eater trailer. Oh yeah,

1282
01:28:14.880 --> 01:28:19.399
Pakistan mentioned let's go you did it? That was like a religious experience.

1283
01:28:19.800 --> 01:28:23.079
I think they might be doing this
right. This might be really good.

1284
01:28:23.279 --> 01:28:26.439
I was very, very excited by
what I've seen a lot of people crying

1285
01:28:26.439 --> 01:28:31.119
on the internet surprise that they're like, oh, I look so like personality

1286
01:28:31.199 --> 01:28:33.520
less, and I'm just like,
come on, man, what are you

1287
01:28:33.560 --> 01:28:36.319
looking for here? It would be
worse if they tried to inject like a

1288
01:28:36.439 --> 01:28:43.479
new personality. They did that one
time. One person in the history of

1289
01:28:43.600 --> 01:28:48.359
metlgear decided he could do Kajima better
than Kama and his diak was Ryan Dennis

1290
01:28:48.439 --> 01:28:55.600
diac ruined Melok. Look, I
am a twin Snake's defender, so that

1291
01:28:56.159 --> 01:29:00.880
you also eight two thousand calories worth
of skills the other day? What do

1292
01:29:00.960 --> 01:29:02.720
you know, every day like for
two days in a row. Yeah,

1293
01:29:02.760 --> 01:29:06.079
I think it was gameless good.
You know, I love that game.

1294
01:29:06.119 --> 01:29:10.800
I've played it millions of times probably
at this point, so I'm excited to

1295
01:29:10.840 --> 01:29:14.880
see it come back. Maybe maybe
it leads to something a little more meaningful

1296
01:29:14.960 --> 01:29:19.239
than a remake, you know,
but who knows what's gonna happen over there.

1297
01:29:19.640 --> 01:29:24.239
We got to talk more about South
of Midnight. Yeah, I was,

1298
01:29:24.479 --> 01:29:27.039
honestly if I was like to pick
the most surprising thing, the thing

1299
01:29:27.119 --> 01:29:29.840
I had like a very little interest
in too, Like I want to play

1300
01:29:29.880 --> 01:29:33.319
that now. It is South of
Midnight. Oh yeah, yeah in incredible.

1301
01:29:33.439 --> 01:29:35.680
Yeah, I won't know. It's
going to just be like some kind

1302
01:29:35.680 --> 01:29:40.159
of like a walk around and like
choose one of three dialogue option things.

1303
01:29:40.159 --> 01:29:43.880
You know, it's a real video
game. Yeah. The funniest. The

1304
01:29:43.880 --> 01:29:46.239
funniest thing was like we were talking
about after and Mike was there on the

1305
01:29:46.279 --> 01:29:49.199
couch and he was like, he
was like, it might be a and

1306
01:29:49.239 --> 01:29:56.079
then he looked around nervously and it
was like a real video like who do

1307
01:29:56.119 --> 01:29:58.680
you think is here? I don't
know, And so he just said it

1308
01:29:58.680 --> 01:30:01.479
in front of everybody instead. Yeah. Yeah, well you know, I

1309
01:30:01.600 --> 01:30:04.840
like to make everyone feel as uncomfortable
as possible. It's good. Oh yeah,

1310
01:30:04.840 --> 01:30:08.239
all good? Uh, Nikki,
what was doing it for you?

1311
01:30:08.239 --> 01:30:12.720
And stuff? The Midnight I think
that there's a lot of space to be

1312
01:30:12.760 --> 01:30:15.359
played, and like, especially in
a post, Hey back there, relax,

1313
01:30:16.520 --> 01:30:20.279
you're so loud. I can hear
your conversations up here. Get them

1314
01:30:20.319 --> 01:30:26.640
on rough. I think like especially
in a post Spider Verse world, right,

1315
01:30:26.760 --> 01:30:30.720
Like the beauty of animation, right
is that, like you don't need

1316
01:30:30.760 --> 01:30:35.479
to adhere to convention because you can
only do X number of things inside of

1317
01:30:35.479 --> 01:30:40.600
a camera. When you have the
breadth that you do when you're working with

1318
01:30:40.640 --> 01:30:44.359
animation, you can do fucking anything, right. And I think even from

1319
01:30:44.399 --> 01:30:47.319
the little snippet that we saw today
of gameplay, like there's mix of frame

1320
01:30:47.399 --> 01:30:50.479
rates, which I think is really
cool. It seems like they're a handful

1321
01:30:50.479 --> 01:30:56.600
of different but like handholding kinds of
art styles that are really working together,

1322
01:30:56.760 --> 01:31:00.039
and like I'm really excited. I
think it's also like a space that like

1323
01:31:00.079 --> 01:31:03.840
we don't get to see that very

in mind? What was it like
putting this whole thing together? Well,

1358
01:33:48.159 --> 01:33:55.600
it was a lot of work,
but you know, it was very rewarding

1359
01:33:55.800 --> 01:33:59.479
to go into a meeting when we
were discussing the fact that we were maybe

1360
01:33:59.560 --> 01:34:03.760
going to rent a space downtown this
year and say, hey, I'm really

1361
01:34:03.760 --> 01:34:12.119
happy to do this. I need
this many digits number uh budget to do

1362
01:34:12.159 --> 01:34:15.720
that, and to have people say
okay, sure, So yeah, it

1363
01:34:15.039 --> 01:34:19.199
feels good to be trusted with it. But I'm also really looking forward to

1364
01:34:19.479 --> 01:34:27.840
sleeping for at least a week.
But I'm really really pleased with how it

1365
01:34:27.840 --> 01:34:30.920
all turned out. You know.
I had a vision for what I wanted

1366
01:34:31.039 --> 01:34:35.000
the set to be at the Space
Downtown, and I worked with a wonderful

1367
01:34:35.000 --> 01:34:40.600
production design Yeah, yeah, I
was. I was very happy to see

1368
01:34:40.640 --> 01:34:43.560
also that a lot of the PR
people had a really good response to it

1369
01:34:43.600 --> 01:34:47.159
as well, and said that it
just immediately created a sense of feeling comfortable

1370
01:34:47.319 --> 01:34:51.119
and at home. Yes, so
shout out to my wonderful production designer,

1371
01:34:51.159 --> 01:34:58.000
Benjamin Ralston, who is uh yeah, I mean like he's just great.

1372
01:34:58.039 --> 01:35:01.760

of freelancers working on this. I know

1373
01:35:01.800 --> 01:35:04.159

TriCaster, Janelle has been running around back

1376
01:35:14.520 --> 01:35:17.720

1377
01:35:17.720 --> 01:35:23.760
Phantom office right now because they are
unloading. Because this is the thing about

1378
01:35:23.880 --> 01:35:27.239
stuff that was made in the nineties
is it's made out of solid wood.

1379
01:35:27.560 --> 01:35:31.319

all of the stuff that we got
for our set. And yeah, and

01:35:47.279 --> 01:35:53.000
a bill of Greg Miller for that
chair. It's you know, a very

1385
01:35:53.039 --> 01:35:58.439
reasonable twenty three dollars, So,
