fortune teller told me it would be
Yep. She was like really specific,

36
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,120

37
00:03:07,199 --> 00:03:09,800
it's gonna happen. Trust me.
There will be a jet plane and

38
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:15,000
it's a long trip. I'll be
gone for a while. And I'm just

00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,520
it's kind of a mess with packing, Like I don't know what to do.

40
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:22,199
Really. I tell myself, I'm
gonna pack like four days in advance

41
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:27,599
and less than that now till we
leave. And I haven't really done anything.

42
00:03:27,599 --> 00:03:30,719
I have like seven lists in eight
rooms of my house, and I'm

43
00:03:30,759 --> 00:03:36,599

63
00:04:48,079 --> 00:04:53,000
days you're going one for each day
and then just one extra just in case.

64
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,600
And then it's like how many different
variety of right do I bring?

65
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,040
Hey, it's just thought about loads
to bring, you know that I'll buy

66
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:06,160
in jail, I'll buy Yeah,
do you think they provide those? Were

00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:12,480

it's gonna be fun. SPF is a

68
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,360
relevant topic. I'll bring I'll be
bringing more than any human could possibly need.

69
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,079
Although I look, I did a
little bit of research and one of

70
00:05:20,079 --> 00:05:23,680
the places I'm going, I'm going
to a couple of places. One of

71
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:28,600
the places I'm going has like this
thing where you stand in a device and

72
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:33,920
you just like don't move and various
sprays like lather you in sunscreen. It's

73
00:05:33,959 --> 00:05:40,240
like has Matt Decontaminators? Are you
going to hedonism too in Jamaica? Where

74
00:05:40,319 --> 00:05:43,319
what are you doing here? No, I'm going to like I'm going to

75
00:05:43,519 --> 00:05:49,600
one tropical place and then one American
place in the most American ass place.

76
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:56,560
Are you going to like the Olive
Garden in Times Square and then not the

77
00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:01,600
Circle of Hell? Yeah? So
so that so like, but I when

78
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:05,879
I'm on the beach, I wear
pretty much long sleeves and everything, so

79
00:06:06,079 --> 00:06:11,560
maybe that's not gonna just getting sunscreen
all over my clothes. There's a resort

80
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,920
and you make it called he hedonism
too. I don't think there's a hedonism

81
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,680
one. Yeah. I really like
it when there's like places that are named

82
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:25,120
as sequels. Anytime there's a bar
that's like yeah right, yeah here,

83
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:30,720
Yeah, My favorite tak area in
Oakland, uh is called El Paisa at

84
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:34,920
dot com. There's no website,
but it's like at sign dot com.

85
00:06:34,959 --> 00:06:38,680
It's great. That rules. Oh
my god, I just wanted there.

86
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,360
So we're gonna get the tech bros
in on with this. We just put

87
00:06:41,399 --> 00:06:44,399
some some stuff they say all the
time, and we'll trick them into come

88
00:06:44,399 --> 00:06:46,759
and getting our tacareas. Oh yeah, oh yeah. Uh. I just

89
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,120
want to put it out there because
I saw it in the YouTube chat there.

90
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:54,600
I am not going on a fucking
cruise. I am not a psychopath.

91
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:59,600
Okay, I'm sorry. I want
don't want to cruise. You cruise

92
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:04,839
people will enjoy your fucking jail on
the seas and just do whatever anything is

93
00:07:04,879 --> 00:07:09,319
there. It's like you're you live
on a mall. You live on a

94
00:07:09,399 --> 00:07:13,199
mall on water. That sounds great, look the old. I've been on

95
00:07:13,279 --> 00:07:16,399
two cruises and they're both in the
worst experiences of my life. The only

96
00:07:16,439 --> 00:07:20,399
time I would maybe think about going
on another cruise is like maybe up to

97
00:07:20,439 --> 00:07:25,360
like Alaska where it's like super cold
and everyone there is just like, I

98
00:07:25,399 --> 00:07:29,600
don't know, I feel like they're
more normal than than the hot cruise people.

99
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:31,439
But I don't know. It's just
because like like you can definitely get

100
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:36,800
like norovirus is just gonna be like, dude, you are getting something horrific,

101
00:07:38,319 --> 00:07:43,480
and all sixty thousand of you are
stuck on this floating hotel. You're

102
00:07:43,519 --> 00:07:46,600
like, it doesn't make sense anywhere, not on paper, not in a

103
00:07:46,639 --> 00:07:50,639
fantasy. It's insane. It's insane. It sucks. Thank you everyone in

104
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:55,319
Chad grees. I'm glad that there's
an unanimous feeling about cruiser. You know,

105
00:07:55,319 --> 00:07:59,920
you're you're pulling a dan By by
gaslighting the audio listeners, right,

106
00:08:00,639 --> 00:08:03,959
I'm sorry. Cruise cruise hate is
like the safest gas lighting you can do,

107
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,360
because it is not like a fifty
fifty. It is like a ninety

108
00:08:07,439 --> 00:08:13,839
ten in favor of hating on cruises
because they're so insane. Were cruise in

109
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:20,360
March on a cruise, my dad
wanted to spend his birthday with Captain Mickey,

110
00:08:20,519 --> 00:08:24,600
so we did. Oh that's adorable, shouts out, yeah. Would

111
00:08:24,639 --> 00:08:26,759
you say no to him backlar if
he was like, come with me on

112
00:08:26,759 --> 00:08:30,199
this cruise. I want to see
Captain Mickey on my birthday. Would you

113
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,200
really look that man in the eyes
and say no? Fuck cruises. I

114
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,240
wouldn't say fun cruises. I would
just be like, I'm not joining you

115
00:08:37,279 --> 00:08:41,039
on this vacation. Thank you for
the invite. You were close like that.

116
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:45,120
I don't think I've ever hurtful.
I don't think i've ever met him,

117
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,559
actually, but you've received an email
from him before. I'm sure I've

118
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,799
gotten the corresponding emails from death through
electronic mail. I'm sure can't be.

119
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:54,960
It can't be on an episode of
this up bringing him up, but he

120
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,120
comes up a lot. It's not
my fault. Yeah, I got two

121
00:08:56,159 --> 00:08:58,159
emails from him the other day.
I was like, yeah, he's just

122
00:08:58,159 --> 00:09:01,679
there in the top of everyone's mind. Yes, exactly, top of mind

123
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:07,159
all the time. I want to
give a special special shout out preemptively to

124
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:11,159
the shout out section. Also,
hey, new rules, because you jerks

125
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:16,279
just like just fudge everything up,
just ruin everything. We're only okay,

126
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,240
the shoutouts will start as soon as
email segment starts. But we're only going

127
00:09:20,279 --> 00:09:24,720
to fifty, So squabble amongst yourselves, all right. Whenever we get to

128
00:09:24,759 --> 00:09:28,559
fit hard cut off at fifty okay, you guys will fight until then,

129
00:09:28,919 --> 00:09:31,759
but anyway, brawl in there as
you are as you're reading it, there's

130
00:09:31,759 --> 00:09:35,399
gonna be a brawl to be the
top fifty. Uh. Special shout outs

131
00:09:35,799 --> 00:09:41,960
to the newlyweds, im run and
rep lovely wedding. What a great wedding.

132
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:46,600
Congratulations game a king and a prom
King and queen. Absolutely yes,

133
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:50,440
congratulations to them both. Uh,
how do we feel about anyone else?

134
00:09:50,519 --> 00:09:54,320
Got some random jazz to talk about
or get off their chests? You want

135
00:09:54,360 --> 00:10:00,360
the cruised pole report? All right? Yeah, I kind of fifteen?

136
00:10:00,519 --> 00:10:05,159
Okay, overwhelming? That's what a
goddamn landslide. What a goddamn landslide?

137
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:11,039
Okay, how many people a landslide
is? Yeah, that's considered a landslide

138
00:10:11,039 --> 00:10:13,759
for sure. Yeah, it gives
more than twice either, Okay, how

139
00:10:13,759 --> 00:10:18,240
many cruises that voted on? This
is what i'd be because I mean,

140
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,440
to me, it's like the idea
of going on a cruise. It's like

141
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,919
maybe like twenty percent of people ever
go on a cruise. I've never been.

142
00:10:24,039 --> 00:10:26,960
Go go No, I don't.
I don't want to. I don't.

143
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,919
Yeah, of course we're going to
go on a cruise. Well,

144
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:31,759
I don't want to go on a
tropical cruise. I would go on like

145
00:10:31,759 --> 00:10:37,639
one of those retirement cruises like along
the scene in Europe or something. I

146
00:10:37,639 --> 00:10:39,320
would do that, like that that
goes all the different cities in Europe.

147
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:43,440
I might hit that. Oh that
would go on. I would go on

148
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:50,000
a very small uh like giant bomb
booze cruise. Yeah, I would do

149
00:10:50,039 --> 00:10:52,559
that. That's gonna be nothing but
diseases. Actually, so I would be

150
00:10:52,639 --> 00:10:56,480
very It's really open and there's no
like lodges, no like mess hall.

151
00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:00,320
You'll be fine. You think we
can cond people to do that though a

152
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:05,559
large draft? Yeah, you think
we can see all right? You know,

153
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,159
someone that doesn't know how to swim, I would have to be wearing

154
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,559
a life jacket at all times.
Okay, I mean I feel like the

155
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:16,000
odds of you going overboard or slim, but if you want to feel also,

156
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,039
how many life jackets could we put
on jan It's a question I think

157
00:11:18,039 --> 00:11:24,000
we answer all of a sudden,
cruising back on the table, I think

158
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:31,960
we get fifty on him. I
think we get fifty life properly or just

159
00:11:31,039 --> 00:11:37,519
like hung everywhere anywhere in any way
it counts. I think we get fifty

160
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,679
on there. He'd just be a
ball of safety. I think it depends

161
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,879
whether or not he still has his
hair, sure of course. Yes,

162
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:48,480
Okay, okay, well let's buoyant, he's let's point, let's talk about

163
00:11:48,519 --> 00:11:56,039
games. Okay quick? No,
quick, Zelda? Check is why?

164
00:11:54,159 --> 00:12:01,799
Uh? Uh? Yes? I
still like you? Planning on a plane

165
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,240
soon quick, Zelda? Check for
folks, if you missed it last week,

166
00:12:05,279 --> 00:12:11,320
I made an unwise decision to make
a large declarative statement on a podcast.

167
00:12:11,399 --> 00:12:15,320
It gets listened to by at least
two dozen people. You know what

168
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,559
you did? I made have been
But if I do not finish Tears of

169
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:24,519
the Kingdom by the beginning of the
Saturday panel at packs this guy, I

170
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:30,879
would shave my head. Would you
expect? You know? I got the

171
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,480
hard thing out of the way.
I recorded that yesterday with grub. That's

172
00:12:33,519 --> 00:12:37,480
out of the way. Yes you're
yes, You've got the big work thing

173
00:12:37,519 --> 00:12:39,200
done, so you could like get
back into it. But where are you

174
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,240
at? And Zelda? Have you
gone back to play? Zelda? Oh?

175
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:45,240
Yes, I was playing last night
and then I finally got the last

176
00:12:45,279 --> 00:12:48,919
tower that I didn't get. Uh. Did I do any of the mainline

177
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,399
story stuff? No? I just
kept running around what is you? Is

178
00:12:52,399 --> 00:12:54,559
it? Saying? Hey, go
check out what like what's going on with

179
00:12:54,639 --> 00:12:56,399
Zelda at the at the castle.
Oh no, no, it doesn't say

180
00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:01,240
that anymore. I'm past that.
I'm like, God, okay, then

181
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,879
you're good. Yeah, good because
if you like, I mean, you

182
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,759
got to do the big thing.
But other than that, you'll you'll crush

183
00:13:07,759 --> 00:13:09,519
it. You'll be done soon.
Yeah. What are shaving your head?

184
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:15,120
Gives you like, uh, some
sort of cool fucking superpower or something?

185
00:13:15,519 --> 00:13:20,080
What would that? Because powers?
Yeah? And are you doing do we

186
00:13:20,159 --> 00:13:24,639
say if you're bicking it or if
you're doing We're not. We're not bicking

187
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,240
it. So you're like a number
zero or a number one, we're doing

188
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,399
like a one or two. You
know, we could do it too,

189
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,360
he'll before. I mean, it's
gonna be so short compared to what it

190
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:37,600
is, like even like a two
or three would be Yeah, it just

191
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,879
it would count as a buzz cut
at that point. That's what we're talking

192
00:13:39,879 --> 00:13:41,279
about here. Yeah. But see, we're all talking like, I'm not

193
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:46,919
going to finish this game. I'm
gonna finish it. Can take somebody,

194
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,720
no, no, no, that
I've got to finish this game. What

195
00:13:50,879 --> 00:13:54,879
you're talking about? Who can I
bet? Does anybody think on the panel

196
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:58,720
here does anybody think that he will
do it as well? Like, does

197
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,360
any body else also think he'll do
it? Because I would like to bet

198
00:14:01,399 --> 00:14:05,200
you money that he will not.
Yeah, I think he's gonna do it.

199
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,440
Oh yeah, money, I'll bet
money. I don't have any,

200
00:14:07,519 --> 00:14:11,759
But well that defeats the purpose of
what I'm gonna win. So let's just

201
00:14:11,759 --> 00:14:16,600
do it, and then if i'll
just wel yeah, yeah, I'll load

202
00:14:16,639 --> 00:14:20,080
this. I'm dunk. Yeah.
If I could get grub money by him

203
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,639
winning a bet on me, I'll
do it. Yeah. Let's go realistically,

204
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,960
like how many hours are you from
finishing? You know, a good

205
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:31,000
hundred probably? Oh oh oh,
what can I do? You shave your

206
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:37,399
head again and I'll grow my hair
out? No, no, here,

207
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:41,720
here's here's prodigy. I would love. I'll just concentery real hard Backlar just

208
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:46,679
has to have a mustache. He
just shaves everything else except the stash.

209
00:14:46,879 --> 00:14:52,000
See that's I haven't been I haven't
been clean shaven since the day of my

210
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:58,159
wedding day. So like eleven years, happiest day of your life, it's

211
00:14:58,159 --> 00:15:01,200
pretty funked up. I think that's
a bet that's more fucked up than your

212
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:05,039
bed. Jan I just gotta say, hey, you know, I want

213
00:15:05,039 --> 00:15:07,960
to make good on another promise.
I made it at one pack, so

214
00:15:07,039 --> 00:15:11,840
like I think it was the last
packs. The Giant Bomb was at Backlard.

215
00:15:11,879 --> 00:15:13,000
Do you think it's okay with the
people at packs if I throw a

216
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:20,360
bucket of chicken into the audience?
Uh? Is it? Is it like

217
00:15:20,399 --> 00:15:24,840
wrapped? You know? Like okay, I could individually wrap the chicken shore.

218
00:15:24,039 --> 00:15:28,360
I feel like right backs West,
Yes, I feel like if I'm

219
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,600
if I'm like sitting in from row
and I get there and I'm all happy

220
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:35,159
to see my my Giant Bomb,
you know people that I'm here to see,

221
00:15:35,159 --> 00:15:37,840
and then I get it's cooked.
It's cooked. Yeah, I realized.

222
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,720
But like you also definitely know if
you're at a Giant Bomb panel that

223
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:43,919
chicken crumbs are very likely to get
you like yeahs, So you will get

224
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,360
chicken crumbs. You may get soaked
in chicken crumbs. So it's basically a

225
00:15:48,399 --> 00:15:52,559
Gallagher show. Yes, yeah,
I don't you have to hand and clutch

226
00:15:52,559 --> 00:15:56,360
because then you can turn the dial
down on the chicken you get must chicken,

227
00:15:58,639 --> 00:16:02,080
let me get full wet you go? Man? If I if I

228
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:06,120
went to a panel and walked away
very greasy, I'd be up I'd probably

229
00:16:06,159 --> 00:16:07,799
be upset. I'd be like,
oh man, if it was a really

230
00:16:07,799 --> 00:16:14,039
good time, you know, if
you started greasy, just maybe individually wrap

231
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:15,639
him in tinfoil or something. I
don't know. I thought, well with

232
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:22,080
you and individually wrapping stuff in tinfoil, I'm just very to look like that.

233
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:26,200
I don't like things getting very dirty, So I'm a bad person to

234
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,679
ask. Like if my kid rolls
around outside, like I literally have to

235
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,080
walk away because I don't want to
tell him not to do it. Because

236
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,320
he's a kid. He should do
it, he should get dirty. But

237
00:16:36,399 --> 00:16:40,559
it fucks me up inside so much
when I just have to like walk away,

238
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:45,679
and yeah, so that's who I
am. Okay, I feel as

239
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,679
long as you have a vegan option, so if you throw stuff in the

240
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:52,559
audience, you gotta chicken. And
then it's like one part of the crowd's

241
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:57,159
like, we're vegetarian. You throw
some I don't know, tofu at him

242
00:16:57,559 --> 00:17:03,240
with it. Yeah, act this
sealery. Could you imagine you're vegan and

243
00:17:03,279 --> 00:17:06,839
you go to a giant bump panel
only to get slapped in the face with

244
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:11,599
a drumstick, and like, what
the with all the random food talk we

245
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,000
have here with me talking about that
I could probably eat one hundred nuggets in

246
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:21,480
one sitting, the hot dog discourse
of the past year, the cheese pizza

247
00:17:21,519 --> 00:17:25,200
gate, of pizza gate, that
we need to Okay, I need to

248
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:30,200
read you know who knows what we'll
be talking about in Q three, right

249
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,880
right? You're right? New food
product will cause us distress exactly, Bailey.

250
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,240
What's what's going to be the food? Just just what the fortune tellers

251
00:17:37,279 --> 00:17:41,559
say? Soup. We're gonna have
to figure out what soup is to find

252
00:17:41,599 --> 00:17:45,160
as fuck. Yeah, it's it's
just crunchy water. Yeah, it's cereal

253
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,640
is soup? We have to think
about this. Ah, we can't.

254
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,559
Shit, I can't. I can't
deal with this. I can't deal with

255
00:17:52,599 --> 00:17:56,079
that. H for next quarter?
Okay, next quarter? All right?

256
00:17:56,119 --> 00:18:00,440
Everyone four to put it away?
Put it away, not a lot.

257
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,920
Put a pin in that has cyril
ever come in? I can't never mind?

258
00:18:06,039 --> 00:18:07,960
Oh oh no, that's a that's
a cool thing though to ask like

259
00:18:08,039 --> 00:18:12,319
that's not controversial. That's just like
a fun thought experiment, right, yeskay?

260
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:17,880
But would it be wet like corn
anyway? Like dog food? I

261
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:22,039
need to we can't have tangents on
the show anymore. We just need to

262
00:18:22,039 --> 00:18:25,279
talk about video games. Hey,
Tears Is the Kingdom is a fantastic game.

263
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:29,279
It's great. I have a stupid
smile every time, like I find

264
00:18:29,319 --> 00:18:33,359
something new and stupid. It's like, you idiots, all right, cool,

265
00:18:33,599 --> 00:18:37,359
lets go help you out. Uh
huh. I beat I beat it,

266
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:38,319
and I felt I still felt the
same way, where it's just like

267
00:18:38,319 --> 00:18:41,400
every time I would stumble across something, it was like, yeah, that's

268
00:18:41,559 --> 00:18:45,279
amazing, that's end. Even in
here. I spent a solid hour last

269
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:51,519
night taking selfies with gorons because they
were just adorable. I'm like, what's

270
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,839
up? How you play the game
and wind up shaving your head in eleven

271
00:18:55,960 --> 00:19:00,200
days? Yeah? You know,
I'm training. I'm training, and I'm

272
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,119
gonna spend a lot of time training. So I'm just gonna I'm gonna beat

273
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:07,720
this game. I'm convinced. I'm
convinced you're not You're not all right.

274
00:19:07,799 --> 00:19:11,920
So I am like, I'm like, what is your main mission right now?

275
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:18,640
Do you know? Off two of
the fuck nos grub Okay, Okay,

276
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,440
I'm not gonna because that's a spoiler. I'm trying to like figure out

277
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,240
a way you're like he would have
to scroll so far up he'll never get

278
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:29,119
up there. Exactly. I've just
talked to so many people and then I'm

279
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:30,759
like, you know, I'm gonna
help you out. I forget Zelda.

280
00:19:30,839 --> 00:19:33,400
We don't need, we don't need
right now, right? Have you been

281
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:37,279
finding the tears the different tiers and
stuff, like you've got to find them

282
00:19:37,279 --> 00:19:40,519
all? Did you get all the
tears? Okay? Yeah, that's really

283
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:47,799
so critically important lemonade right there?
Yeah, okay, oh no, that

284
00:19:48,759 --> 00:19:52,799
also already exploring the depths more in
depth though, see, okay, you're

285
00:19:52,839 --> 00:19:57,200
doing okay, you're definitely not finishing
this game. Yeah, that's what I

286
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:02,079
did, and I now I've actually
fully one. There was like two little

287
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:03,720
spots I couldn't get too because I
didn't go to didn't beat the game.

288
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:08,400
And then once I did that,
that made it easier. That ending jan

289
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:15,240
is very very good. It's very
good. So I would try to see

290
00:20:15,279 --> 00:20:18,240
it like it's like, yeah,
make it happen, No, I'm gonna

291
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:22,200
make it happy. I made me
cry real human tears out of really yeah,

292
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:26,160
human tears. Yeah, emotional too, but this will made me cry

293
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,079
in a different way. Yeah,
exactly, not not to make it all

294
00:20:30,079 --> 00:20:33,559
about me. But like I wonder
when I'm gonna finish this game, like

295
00:20:33,599 --> 00:20:38,279
I will I'm going to experience really
human tears. Yeah, like what are

296
00:20:38,319 --> 00:20:41,599
what? Am I going to be
able to cry with my son? Yeah,

297
00:20:41,599 --> 00:20:42,720
you're playing with But like you guys
are going at your own pace,

298
00:20:42,839 --> 00:20:47,359
Like you'll probably get there maybe fifty
fifty five hours I think though, Yeah,

299
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:52,920
you'll probably get there by dissimil Oh
we're gonna we're Oh, I can't.

300
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,799
I just can't wait to do like
the monitor on the plane, Like

301
00:20:56,839 --> 00:20:59,559
I think that is gonna be the
dopest thing. I'm super gonna look like

302
00:20:59,599 --> 00:21:02,319
the coolest people on that plane.
For sure. People are gonna stop in

303
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:06,559
the aisle. It just be like, can I shake your fucking had congratulate

304
00:21:06,599 --> 00:21:10,039
You're definitely gonna be the next president
of the United States. Easy say to

305
00:21:10,079 --> 00:21:15,680
you. Easy love it, Bailey. I need to ask you if Balder's

306
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:22,160
Gate three, Act three has brought
tears to your face. Well, let's

307
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:29,000
see, I've already had to lose
two hours of game progress and I'm at

308
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,559
the beginning of act three. This
is not my first time doing this in

309
00:21:32,599 --> 00:21:37,880
this game. I here's here's the
thing is I needed to get footage of

310
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:44,000
them fucking the bear for the honest
game trailer that's coming out in thirty minutes,

311
00:21:44,279 --> 00:21:47,880
and I still have not achieved getting
this footage. I don't think I'm

312
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:52,599
gonna make it at this point.
Game itself, yeah, the game itself

313
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,880
did not make it easy for me
at all, because I was like blasting

314
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,359
through Act two like okay, wholes
and won't join your party until Act three.

315
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,599
Got it, got it, got
it, he's the Bear, And

316
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:07,319
so I'm like blasting through Act two. I meet JK. Simmons. It's

317
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:11,839
rad seeing him, No for you, just going right to it. Absolutely,

318
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:15,279
yeah, I'm like focus power through
it, get get to the bear

319
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,440
sex And then you get to the
end of act two having done this,

320
00:22:18,559 --> 00:22:22,359
and Hawson is like, it's a
shame you didn't break the Shadow curse and

321
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:27,839
now you never will, so I
cannot join you on your quest and like,

322
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:37,240
oh and find the stupid broken loot
or whatever, and oh, and

323
00:22:37,279 --> 00:22:38,920
I had a save where like I
knew where the loot was, and I

324
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,519
had a save where I definitely killed
that guy, but I couldn't find the

325
00:22:41,559 --> 00:22:45,240
loot for like an hour, And
it turned out he's in my traveler's chest

326
00:22:45,279 --> 00:22:49,880
in my camp, so I don't
have I didn't meet the footage, is

327
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,920
what I'm saying. It does sound
like bad DM problems again right where it's

328
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,359
like you will like if you had
a good DM, they'd be like,

329
00:22:56,839 --> 00:22:59,880
remember it's in you, you have
it in your camp, like you have

330
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,200
this already, and but no,
the game is just like you're on your

331
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,279
own good luck. Game has thrown
hundreds of items at me and expects me

332
00:23:06,319 --> 00:23:08,319
to remember all of them so that
Halston will come with me so I can

333
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:15,440
have sex with a bear. And
it's hard. Yeah, I've had weekends

334
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:21,440
like this as well. You know, are you enjoying other than not being

335
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,400
able to have intimate relations with the
bear? Are you enjoying your time with

336
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:29,279
Balder's Gate three? Still? Yeah, it's great. Sometimes it's really good.

337
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,640
Most of the time it's really good. It's the parts when it's mind

338
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:38,200
numbingly frustrating that make me so angry
because it's like so close to being a

339
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:44,400
perfect game, and then there's no
like there's an autosave feature, but in

340
00:23:44,559 --> 00:23:48,599
name only, certainly not in spirit, and like all the times I've had

341
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:55,279
to just undo three hours because I
missed one item that I can never get

342
00:23:55,319 --> 00:24:00,000
back because I want to have sex
with Halston in the game. So the

343
00:24:00,039 --> 00:24:03,559
bear sex is the one thing that
seems like there, you're definitely doing the

344
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:08,160
saves coming for a going so hard. Of course they're sex, but you're

345
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,640
just doing your job here, like
you're just doing you just a few delicial

346
00:24:12,039 --> 00:24:18,480
yes, of course. But are
there other situations where you are doing saves

347
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:22,119
coming because you're like, oh,
this isn't the perfect run or I don't

348
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:23,759
I was trying to get this thing
for a very long time and I screwed

349
00:24:23,759 --> 00:24:26,599
one thing up and now we won't
be able to get it. Or is

350
00:24:26,599 --> 00:24:30,920
it just the bear sex. It's
I mostly try to avoid saves coming,

351
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,640
but god damn, in this game, it is hard not to do.

352
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,720
Yeah, of course, Like I
have a My character is a rogue.

353
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:41,480
Her whole thing is, you know, the big guys do the fighting,

354
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:45,279
and then she sneaks in and undoes
all the traps and like unlocks all the

355
00:24:45,319 --> 00:24:48,799
locks, and she broke her last
lock pick on a really important door with

356
00:24:48,839 --> 00:24:52,640
a critical failure the million fights scene
that day, and I wait, you

357
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:57,640
know what today, and so I
gave up. I gave up. I

358
00:24:59,599 --> 00:25:02,680
dropped all by dignity and my pride, and I went, no, I'm

359
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:07,559
gonna win this game, whether the
game likes it or not, Bailey,

360
00:25:07,559 --> 00:25:11,240
I gotta ask how many acts are
there in Boulder's Gate? Is Act three

361
00:25:11,279 --> 00:25:15,960
the last act? Or? Okay? So since you're near the end,

362
00:25:15,279 --> 00:25:18,279
ish who knows? Have to restart? You don't know if I am,

363
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,039
Because here's the thing, is I
am? I just opened Steam to look

364
00:25:22,079 --> 00:25:26,440
too so I could tell you an
accurate number. I am sixty three hours

365
00:25:26,519 --> 00:25:30,920
into the game, okay, and
I just started Act three, Soda,

366
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:36,839
and I'm pretty sure Act three is
the longest one, and that's in the

367
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:47,039
titular gate of Boulder Boulders. Are
you at all tempted to once you complete

368
00:25:47,039 --> 00:25:51,319
the game, start a whole new
character and go on the ride all over

369
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:55,279
again? Yeah? Absolutely? Really? Huh yeah? I want. I

370
00:25:55,319 --> 00:25:56,960
think that there is no way to
play this game the same way twice,

371
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:02,240
especially if you just go with a
different character class. And my goal for

372
00:26:02,279 --> 00:26:06,839
the next one is to make a
little stinker like my microL currently is very

373
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:11,559
like like neutral good is sort of
the way she's been like making all her

374
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,160
choices because I want Halston to fall
in love with me. Uh, but

375
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,759
if I want to get a Starian, I have to be a little bit

376
00:26:18,799 --> 00:26:22,000
of a stinker, So you're gonna
go back. I'm going to be a

377
00:26:22,039 --> 00:26:26,480
stinker and maybe a spellcaster. Starry
doesn't go for any goody two shoes like

378
00:26:26,519 --> 00:26:30,200
you. No, no, no, You're down to yeah, down to

379
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,960
literally clown. Yes, exactly,
there you go. Yeah, the big

380
00:26:34,279 --> 00:26:42,839
Starian, big ICP fan definitely absolutely
Loveago. Yeah washes that silver hair in

381
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:48,079
Fago Jan. We've played more on
Friday and I had a really good time.

382
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:53,279
Yes, that game is fun.
There's a lot like I want to

383
00:26:53,319 --> 00:26:56,279
spend more time with it. I'm
playing like five other things and most of

384
00:26:56,279 --> 00:26:59,559
them we can't talk about yet then, so I'm not trying to tease it,

385
00:26:59,599 --> 00:27:02,359
just kind of playing the situation a
little bit. But I'm like,

386
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:07,920
I'm after that Friday session that we
played for UPF, I'm like, definitely

387
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,119
gonna make some time for this game
after some of these review games get out

388
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:12,960
of the way. Yeah. So
yeah, it was it was just like

389
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,640
it was cool to be like,
Okay, somehow I'm waiting around for my

390
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,519
turn and you like that would be
the real big reason I would think a

391
00:27:18,599 --> 00:27:22,240
multiplayer wouldn't work with a turn based
RPG like this, And yet it was

392
00:27:22,279 --> 00:27:26,359
fun to watch you guys come up
with ideas and have time to think about

393
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:29,279
what I was gonna do, and
not just like buffoon it like I normally

394
00:27:29,319 --> 00:27:30,920
do in those situations. It's like, oh, no, I'm gonna go.

395
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,640
I have a bone arrow, I'm
kind of a rogue. I can

396
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:37,359
sneak around and get up high and
have some advantage there. And it was

397
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,279
like, once that stuff started falling
into place for me, I could see

398
00:27:40,279 --> 00:27:44,119
how the combat itself very fun and
then all the wacky stuff that can happen

399
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,160
in between. I was beginning to
get the hang of it. Like I

400
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,559
kept just I want to go see
the thing, even though they told me,

401
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,000
if you like step up to this
thing, bad things will happen.

402
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,400
I'm like, well, I just
want to get a little bit closer.

403
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,519
It's like, Nope, you can't
do that. Every time it went really

404
00:27:56,559 --> 00:27:59,559
bad, it would either start a
fight or we'd end up killing a baby

405
00:28:00,039 --> 00:28:03,480
an Albert. An Albert baby,
to be clear, but I haven't even

406
00:28:03,759 --> 00:28:10,000
seen a Albert. So we went
in the cave and we found an Albert

407
00:28:10,039 --> 00:28:12,599
and uh, for some reason,
I took a potion to talk to the

408
00:28:12,839 --> 00:28:17,000
to the thing. Uh yeah,
sure, obviously right, But then I

409
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:18,799
stepped up close after she wore me
away and she's like, no initiative.

410
00:28:18,839 --> 00:28:22,079
We're fighting, and I'm like,
well, I guess we gotta find our

411
00:28:22,079 --> 00:28:23,960
way out. I'm gonna to target
this baby and to kill the baby,

412
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:29,640
and then the mama Albert screams in
English, what did you do? And

413
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,480
I've never felt more terrible about anything
in my entire life. There's a lot

414
00:28:34,079 --> 00:28:38,160
to unpack there. Yeah, it
was messed up, but I'm like,

415
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,920
man, I'm glad that game one
like makes this possible, and two accounts

416
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:47,240
for like those emotions from the Albert. So yeah, there's something going on

417
00:28:47,279 --> 00:28:49,440
there that I definitely want to dig
deeper into in three minutes and did a

418
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:55,559
war crime immediately, That's just who
I am. I gonna tell you,

419
00:28:56,079 --> 00:29:00,799
Yeah, I kreb I'm also compelled
to play more of it, but again

420
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:06,519
caught up in the review code season
of big Titles, and uh, it's

421
00:29:07,279 --> 00:29:11,400
I feel like I only want to
play that game with people because for some

422
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:15,200
reason, it lowers the stakes versus
sure having to devote so much time like

423
00:29:15,279 --> 00:29:19,000
hearing Bailey's say that she lost two
three hours, just like, oh shit,

424
00:29:19,119 --> 00:29:22,400
I lose two three hours in my
regular life. Like I can't.

425
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:26,279
I can't do that in a game. But like just goofing around with with

426
00:29:26,359 --> 00:29:33,440
y'all was was was fun, But
man's I can't. I can't imagine trying

427
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:38,240
to wrangle a group of friends outside
of work hours for a stream to hey,

428
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,440
can you play boulders Gate three reasons
please boulders Gate with you. I

429
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,319
haven't gotten to play a multiplayer with
anyone. I've had to just babysit three

430
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:49,599
NPC's at a time. I think
we'll do we'll do one more stream of

431
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,319
that. I think probably eventually you'll
have to decide if you want to take

432
00:29:53,359 --> 00:29:57,599
over doorf on Golf, which is
Dan's character, or or who's the other

433
00:29:57,599 --> 00:30:03,279
one because you're block Glass in there. I'm I think did Tam oh you'd

434
00:30:03,319 --> 00:30:06,920
take over? Or you could take
over TAM's character, which is okay,

435
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,279
we'll make that. We'll make this
decision offline. It seems really important.

436
00:30:10,319 --> 00:30:15,400
Something I don't someone to watch me
process throw the thing here is like I

437
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,400
could continue that save and just keep
playing it and then you guys could just

438
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,039
jump back in like you know,
hot seat it, and it's like that,

439
00:30:22,039 --> 00:30:23,000
that's nice that it works that way
that I can, like, if

440
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,119
I'm interesting continuing that story, I
could play on my own, and then

441
00:30:26,119 --> 00:30:29,960
when people and friends are available,
they could just hop in take over their

442
00:30:30,039 --> 00:30:33,799
character again and just keep it going
forward. I don't know if it's a

443
00:30:33,799 --> 00:30:36,720
well thought out game, and I
just wish I had more time for it.

444
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:38,799
We'll get there, well, we'll
eventually get there. They would call

445
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,519
you it comes out, and I
don't play that. I'll just play this,

446
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:47,000
uh something that the day has got
there because Greb, you've been playing

447
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:52,039
it and I forgot this came out
completely. You've been playing Bomb Rush cyber

448
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:56,519
Funk. Yeah. So I was
never much of a jet jet set radio

449
00:30:56,559 --> 00:30:59,720
guy. I was too busy playing
Tony Hawk and like Tony ok fit with

450
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,559
like the kind of way I wanted
to play those kinds of games. But

451
00:31:02,599 --> 00:31:04,400
I was always like I always admired
it from a distance, like I like

452
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:08,039
the way it looks like its style, like the music, and and then

453
00:31:08,079 --> 00:31:11,119
I would like try it here or
there and be like it's not clicking with

454
00:31:11,119 --> 00:31:15,279
me. I don't necessarily think I
liked the way it plays. This game

455
00:31:15,359 --> 00:31:18,319
has the the look, the style
on the music, and I think I

456
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:22,359
like the way it plays and feels. A big part of that is they

457
00:31:22,759 --> 00:31:29,079
just really make the act of doing
cool tricks and keeping combos going pretty simple.

458
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:33,559
It's pretty easy to do, so
the difficulty comes from like looking around

459
00:31:33,559 --> 00:31:37,359
the world and spotting these places to
actually perform these long tricks. And usually

460
00:31:37,359 --> 00:31:42,319
they will provide like markers, like
like literal markers, like places where you

461
00:31:42,319 --> 00:31:45,839
could do graffiti a big part of
jet Set Radio a big part of this

462
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,440
game. And then also pride like
little pickups here and there that that'll kind

463
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,960
of say, hey, go in
this direction and you'll see maybe a path

464
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:55,839
to pull off these neat combos.
And once I was able to like start

465
00:31:55,839 --> 00:32:00,559
putting together really long combos where it's
like i am grinding, then I'm going

466
00:32:00,599 --> 00:32:04,039
into a manual, and then I'm
I'm wall writing, and I'm doing a

467
00:32:04,039 --> 00:32:07,960
double jump and a dash into another
grind on a wall, and then I'm

468
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,039
coming down and I'm like landing a
trick there. It's like, Okay,

469
00:32:10,079 --> 00:32:14,319
that was pretty cool, And there's
a lot of It's pretty similar to Tony

470
00:32:14,359 --> 00:32:16,480
Hawk, where it's like the combo
pick up where it's like you can got

471
00:32:16,559 --> 00:32:21,759
to get combo in one combo.
They have stuff like that, and it's

472
00:32:21,799 --> 00:32:24,079
like, that's the what I come
to these games for. Just challenge me

473
00:32:24,119 --> 00:32:28,079
to do a couple of cool things, pull off some cool maneuvers, and

474
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:31,799
make me feel gnarly I guess or
whatever. And this game is definitely hitting

475
00:32:31,839 --> 00:32:37,359
that stuff. And also I think
the story is relatively good. You play

476
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:42,519
as a character who who gets decapitated
in the first like couple of minutes of

477
00:32:42,519 --> 00:32:45,920
the game. Uh. Yeah,
the guy this is like the Evil DJ

478
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:50,920
throws a vinyl record. Yes,
of course, and well this one is

479
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,079
specially I think this is king Evil
DJ. And he throws a vinyl record

480
00:32:53,119 --> 00:32:55,400
at you like you know, like
a frisbee, and it just swoops in

481
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:59,200
and catches your neck and your head
pops off, and it's like, what

482
00:32:59,359 --> 00:33:01,480
the hell is going on? And
then happened to me last time I played

483
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:06,440
Frosby, right, which is why
he gets replaced with a robot head like

484
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,079
this character. And uh, and
then you just keep going and now you're

485
00:33:08,079 --> 00:33:10,880
like, oh, we're gonna go. We gotta find your head. Things

486
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:15,519
like that. It's like it sounds
absurd, but they're just like you know.

487
00:33:15,759 --> 00:33:19,079
The first group of characters that you
run into are called the Franks,

488
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,559
and they're like these piece together monsters
like Frankenstein's. They play basketball and every

489
00:33:22,559 --> 00:33:24,759
time you talk to them, they're
doing a dance to the music. And

490
00:33:24,799 --> 00:33:28,759
it's like, that's that's what this
game is. It's all vibes, it's

491
00:33:28,759 --> 00:33:31,720
all about good feelings, and I'm
actually pretty impressed with it. I'm having

492
00:33:31,759 --> 00:33:36,640
a pretty good time with it.
Yeah. I tried playing one of it

493
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:42,119
was either Jet Grind Radio or Jets
Set Rate Grind Future Boys Yeah Radio Future

494
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,480
Yeah something, whatever it's called,
and I could just never get the feel

495
00:33:45,519 --> 00:33:49,720
of it. But hearing that,
it feels slightly different, but the vibes

496
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,200
are still there. Yeah. There's
no time to play this game though,

497
00:33:52,279 --> 00:33:57,319
grub I right, Yeah, I
like uh so, the many of the

498
00:33:57,359 --> 00:34:00,599
games I'm playing like they're coming up
in the next couple of weeks. I

499
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:05,160
can't play on my handheld computers or
stuff for one reason or another. So

500
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,319
it's like, this is the game. I put on the Roger ally and

501
00:34:07,359 --> 00:34:08,679
I've been playing on there and it
works. Of course, it works really

502
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:13,960
well on there. I will say
the game doesn't always make it clear what

503
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,440
you're supposed to be doing. Occasionally, like one of the characters, I

504
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:20,039
talked to one of the Franks,
and he's like, hey, go do

505
00:34:20,159 --> 00:34:22,920
this combo right here, and I'm
like, okay, I kind of see

506
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,119
it, and then like after it
cuts back from the cut scene of him

507
00:34:25,159 --> 00:34:29,719
performing that, showing you what you're
supposed to do, I'm like disoriented.

508
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,599
I'm like I don't even know what
direction you went into. And then there's

509
00:34:31,599 --> 00:34:36,039
a lot of little stuff like that, that thing where a cut scene will

510
00:34:36,119 --> 00:34:37,760
end and it'll be like go over
here, and now it's like the camera's

511
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:42,239
pointing off in a different direction.
That happens pretty frequently. I get the

512
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,199
maps aren't huge, it's not a
huge problem, but it's a little annoying.

513
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:49,039
But that's similar sort of thing happens. And I got a boss fight

514
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,159
and I just for like five minutes, I'm skating around, like am I

515
00:34:52,199 --> 00:34:57,599
just supposed to be avoiding these attacks
because there's no obvious like attack button,

516
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,079
And turned out I'm supposed to be
kind of like double jump and just I

517
00:35:00,159 --> 00:35:02,840
kind of ram my body into the
boss and it's like that doesn't feel great,

518
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,440
and that wasn't obvious, and eventually
I figured it out. And I

519
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,079
tend to do that repeatedly. Uh, and it's like it's not as obvious.

520
00:35:09,079 --> 00:35:10,760
It's like, oh, I have
spray paint. Just spray paint the

521
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,159
enemies. You could do that to
some like the cops. That works,

522
00:35:14,159 --> 00:35:15,159
but some of these bosses it's like, no, just run into them.

523
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:19,719
And it's like, okay, I
not everything here feels like super polished or

524
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,280
super super like well thought out to
be conveyed to the player. But as

525
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,199
soon as I got back into the
world, I was having a good time

526
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:28,800
just skating around and doing cool stuff. Also, you get rollerblades. I

527
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:30,400
think you also get a skateboard and
like the bad guys around bikes, so

528
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:34,800
it's not all just rollerblading. If
anyone has an aversion to that, which

529
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:37,719
we should all be over, rollerblading
is great. Yeah. I was gonna

530
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:45,599
say, I think the pandemic did
wonders for rollerblading roller skating pr Yeah,

531
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:50,960
I think so Stock on the rest, Yes, there we go. I

532
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,480
gotta play this. Yeah, I
think you would like it. Ah.

533
00:35:53,519 --> 00:35:58,599
Man, you know, I noticed
the children are getting back into BMX bikes.

534
00:35:58,639 --> 00:36:02,480
It's fun seeing the pegs out there, just children like three p three

535
00:36:02,559 --> 00:36:07,960
kids a bike, just front pegs, back pegs, just hooting and hollering.

536
00:36:08,159 --> 00:36:13,519
Yeah, that's what that's what b
Mexican is all about, about hooting

537
00:36:13,519 --> 00:36:17,360
and hollering. I did see that
the other day when I was along the

538
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:22,159
way. Yeah, you know,
as soon as I said the word pegs

539
00:36:22,199 --> 00:36:25,119
and it came out of my mouth, I knew somehow we were gonna get

540
00:36:25,119 --> 00:36:30,760
there, and no one disappointed me. Well, there's I can't even think

541
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:34,760
of a segue. On Guard is
a game that I've been playing. It's

542
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:43,880
also what you say when you're about
to peg somebody and we're going, well,

543
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:46,320
I set that on, I set
that one up. You walked right

544
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:52,000
into that one. I it would
be really funny if someone did that.

545
00:36:52,079 --> 00:37:00,039
Though man made himself cry to be
clear that he himself. Dude, he

546
00:37:00,079 --> 00:37:07,519
popped himself. Now, hey,
that's why we love you. You're not

547
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:13,039
It's okay, that's sorry, that's
all right. Well on Guard. If

548
00:37:13,079 --> 00:37:16,159
folks checked out the Steam Next Fest, was it a UPF or was it

549
00:37:16,199 --> 00:37:20,559
a just miscellaneous stream that we did
a couple of weeks ago. We did

550
00:37:20,559 --> 00:37:23,519
a UPF where we did the next
fest catchup that sounds try right right right

551
00:37:23,599 --> 00:37:29,679
right. We This is one of
the games that we played, and it

552
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:36,039
is It is a fun This reminds
me of like PS two games in terms

553
00:37:36,119 --> 00:37:38,000
of the aesthetics and the vibe of
it. Because of the color palette.

554
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:47,440
It kind of makes me think of
gosh, the Road to El Dorado of

555
00:37:47,519 --> 00:37:52,559
like color palette and just how their
character designs are. I don't know why

556
00:37:52,599 --> 00:37:58,039
the Road to El Dorado specifically Yo
shouts out that child, I'm alright anyway,

557
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:04,360
but it is I what I think, uh, sword fighting should be

558
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,559
in video games, like specifically,
like dueling sword fighting should be, because

559
00:38:08,119 --> 00:38:14,639
this game heavily, heavily relies on
parrying and dodging at the right time,

560
00:38:15,039 --> 00:38:20,320
and it isn't in a very brutal
way like how Securo or some of the

561
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:25,199
Souls games will be where there's a
giant as far as I know, a

562
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:30,199
giant monster or a bunch of snakes
just attacking you with a big ass sword.

563
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:34,480
It's just a bunch of dude just
dueling you and use the mouse buns

564
00:38:34,519 --> 00:38:38,760
and then the keyboard to properly parry
or like sidestep out of the way and

565
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:43,760
it's very satisfying and and how you
get through it. I think the Steam

566
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:45,760
Next Best demo. I don't know
if there's a demo out on the Steam

567
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:50,440
Store, but pretty much actually once
they post those they usually come back for

568
00:38:50,519 --> 00:38:54,079
they win the games out. But
I'll check right but if you're at all

569
00:38:54,079 --> 00:38:58,119
curious, check out that portion of
the Steam Next vest upf Maybe we'll try

570
00:38:58,119 --> 00:39:00,000
and get a quick look in the
can. I really enjoy it. The

571
00:39:00,079 --> 00:39:05,840
mobility is really nice and how they
handle the combat. You're not in an

572
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:09,880
open world roaming around or you're kind
of like in lanes just uh, not

573
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:15,079
scrolling through, roaming through the specific
encounters, and it feels really good.

574
00:39:15,199 --> 00:39:20,159
Like I thought I should switch it
over to a controller, but then it

575
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:24,079
just felt better with a mouse and
keyboard. Yeah, are you more used

576
00:39:24,079 --> 00:39:28,400
to mouse and keyboard or are you
more of a game pad kind of guy,

577
00:39:28,679 --> 00:39:31,960
more of a game pad type of
type of fella? Then okay,

578
00:39:32,119 --> 00:39:37,199
But with Wazdi here, it just
feels like it fits better with with the

579
00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:39,880
combat style, Like it feels like
it was designed this way. I could

580
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:46,480
be completely wrong. What this actually
made me think about in how the combat

581
00:39:46,519 --> 00:39:57,559
feels sometimes is if you've ever played
we Sports Resort, which, uh yeah,

582
00:39:57,559 --> 00:40:02,679
what is it called the sword fighting
the baton? Sure, it feels

583
00:40:02,679 --> 00:40:07,639
a lot like fencing. Well it's
called on guard. Wow, yah know,

584
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:12,440
like you could be on guard about
some some jazz and stuff. But

585
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:20,559
I really enjoy Yeah, it also
reminds me of bowling, but you're just

586
00:40:20,599 --> 00:40:25,639
trying to get a hole in one
a bowling term. We're on the green

587
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:32,920
now sports. But I really enjoy
it. I haven't spent too much time

588
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:37,880
with it. It is. It
gets challenging very very quickly. But maybe

589
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:42,960
just because I'm a scrub at video
games. It seems like the kind of

590
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,400
game that would ramp up quickly to
me though, because I think the whole

591
00:40:45,599 --> 00:40:50,280
if you're doing one thing, and
that one thing is sword combat, how

592
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,679
do you keep that? I mean, I'm sure they can introduce a lot

593
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,679
of fun stuff, but I think
the way you actually make that game stay

594
00:40:54,760 --> 00:41:00,639
interesting his like actually introduce a skill
increase over time, like have an actual

595
00:41:00,679 --> 00:41:04,800
skill ramp, and so yeah,
that sounds promising in a lot of ways.

596
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,840
I always liked the way it looked, and I like how big are

597
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:12,320
like the Perry windows and things like
that, like it's probably relatively bit compared

598
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:15,519
to a From game, but are
they still relatively tight at the same time,

599
00:41:15,639 --> 00:41:19,440
it's let's split the difference from a
From game and then one of the

600
00:41:19,559 --> 00:41:23,800
Arkham games where there's like there is
a window that you can definitely tell but

601
00:41:24,199 --> 00:41:28,440
if you miss it, you know
why you missed it, versus it kind

602
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,440
of been more generous like an Arkham
game, and then you kind of not

603
00:41:31,559 --> 00:41:37,159
quite knowing why you missed the perry
in a From game. Right, there's

604
00:41:37,199 --> 00:41:40,480
definitely a learning curve. I don't
know how much to the game there is

605
00:41:40,519 --> 00:41:45,119
outside of these encounters and like these
like traversal. The traversal doesn't feel too

606
00:41:45,119 --> 00:41:49,400
great on a mouse and keyboard unfortunately, just like the swinging and just jumping

607
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:53,119
around and stuff. But the sword
combat great, absolutely great. I would

608
00:41:53,159 --> 00:42:00,000
like to see this get carried over
into like another game further down the line.

609
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:04,039
Speaking about going further down the line, or maybe we should say up

610
00:42:04,079 --> 00:42:08,320
the Spire, Bailey, you continue
to slay the Spire. Yeah, I

611
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:12,239
thought I would lose steam on it
now that I'm no longer playing it to

612
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,079
procrastinate on playing the game I'm supposed
to be playing. But oh my God,

613
00:42:15,119 --> 00:42:20,800
I'm not losing steam on it.
I beat it with I've beaten it

614
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:23,880
with all four of the different characters. At this point, I do like

615
00:42:25,159 --> 00:42:30,000
better than I thought. I was
for sure, but I was. I'm

616
00:42:30,079 --> 00:42:32,119
like in love with the defect character. But I finally figured things out with

617
00:42:32,159 --> 00:42:36,239
all the other characters too, and
oh god, it's just so good.

618
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:38,760
I'm just obsessed with card games now. I'm all card games all the time.

619
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:44,400
Now that's my whole thing. All
these big giant open world RPGs are

620
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:45,840
coming out, and that's my whole
ship, and I'm just like, no,

621
00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:50,519
now I'm deeply invested in this card
game. Yeah, that's it.

622
00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,320
I bet you're getting a lot of
recommendations from like chat and Twitch and here's

623
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:57,000
fifty other card Yes, you should
be playing, Yes, because I started

624
00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:00,159
with Inscription and then I got Slay
Spyer recommended to me because of that,

625
00:43:00,199 --> 00:43:07,760
and now they are recommending Monster Train
and that's stop on the train station after

626
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:14,360
Monster Train, Bailey, you should
really check out Grift Lands Lands. Yes,

627
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:20,800
Okay, it's another card down card
combatish game, but there's more same

628
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:22,960
same realm as those other games,
right, yeah, right, but there's

629
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:29,920
more social aspects to juggle as well
of like, oh, this person definitely

630
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:34,920
doesn't like me speaking about card games
and card game I wish I wound up

631
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:38,119
sticking with and I wish I liked
more? Was do y'all remember Square Enix's

632
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:46,280
The Voice of Cards. No,
this was a whole JRPG where everything was

633
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:51,840
done via cards, Like even the
dialogue it was just cards talking to each

634
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:57,519
other and like kind of jumping around. Even like traversing the overworld was just

635
00:43:57,559 --> 00:44:01,559
like moving a chess piece or a
marker through animating hair, and they were

636
00:44:01,599 --> 00:44:05,519
like no more in this one,
it was I wish I liked that.

637
00:44:05,519 --> 00:44:10,760
That's done so cute. Oh it's
not cute, Okay, it's very slow,

638
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:15,079
nostologic for it until the end there. It's just very slow because you

639
00:44:15,119 --> 00:44:17,639
know, you get used to like
the fast paced nature of Slay the Spire

640
00:44:19,119 --> 00:44:21,840
and then like other card games of
like, okay, I already know what

641
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:23,800
my deck build is going to be
based off of looking at the overworld map.

642
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,400
This is the route I'm gonna go. This is the build I'm gonna

643
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:32,119
go. But with like, doing
a full on RPG got very tiresome,

644
00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:38,079
very quick because it doesn't move at
the Cadence, any of these other run

645
00:44:38,119 --> 00:44:42,599
based card games go. I think
that's what happened with me with Hand of

646
00:44:42,639 --> 00:44:45,800
Gilgamesh, that Steam World card game, which was really really well made,

647
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:49,960
really good. It's just the pace
was a little bit slowed down. But

648
00:44:50,039 --> 00:44:52,440
because of the cards, I think
it's still I mean, for all the

649
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:58,199
pieces that it's putting together, it's
still actually pretty. It happens pretty rapidly,

650
00:44:58,679 --> 00:45:00,639
but it wasn't. I just could
stay attached to it for some reason.

651
00:45:00,679 --> 00:45:04,199
But I think it's probably one you
might like as well, Bailey is

652
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:07,280
because a lot of people do like
this game. Please send me as many

653
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,039
card game recommendations as possible. I
love to get deeply invested in games that

654
00:45:10,079 --> 00:45:14,519
I cannot make honest game trailers about
it. It's so helpful for me and

655
00:45:14,599 --> 00:45:19,800
my productivity. It's really good.
That was a Gilga mech Sorry, uh,

656
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,480
that was a fun one. With
all this card talk, I need

657
00:45:23,519 --> 00:45:27,360
to put this out into the universe. I need to put this onto the

658
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:32,039
universe, folks, because my dear
friend Kim poisoned my mind because he shared

659
00:45:32,119 --> 00:45:35,320
with me. He was you know, we were at a wedding. It

660
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,800
was like jam this Disney card game, and I was like, oh no,

661
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:45,320
homie home, no what? Oh
no, n look away, look

662
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:50,800
away, back, Lark backlark this
you can get in on this dock like

663
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,679
you meet. Mike Bailey kind of
likes Disney. I think you know,

664
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:58,280
I'm a man many hobby boxes.
What are we doing here? I like

665
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:00,079
Disney and now I like card game, So I'm kind of all in.

666
00:46:00,519 --> 00:46:05,880
You know, Disney put out Disney
put out a card game. Lor Kanna,

667
00:46:06,039 --> 00:46:09,159
Lorcana, Lorcana. Oh shit,
I know all about na. Yeah

668
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:13,039
I've heard lor Kana, but I
don't know. I guess I've nat really

669
00:46:13,159 --> 00:46:15,760
heard it from. It's a hot
commodity. It's like people, people are,

670
00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:21,440
people are buying them up the streets
are hard talking about it. Grub,

671
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:23,239
you could get in on this too, now, come on, well

672
00:46:23,559 --> 00:46:29,400
you can get all the ELSA cards, you can get all the well is

673
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,840
it like is it a set or
is it a collectible like trading card game

674
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:36,960
or you could game? Like,
well, I understand it's a game,

675
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,639
but like is it it? Was
it like a deck builder where like you

676
00:46:39,639 --> 00:46:43,519
have all the cards and like you
just buy this big expensive thing. I

677
00:46:43,599 --> 00:46:46,920
believe it to go, Like that's
a little bit more. I could handle

678
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:51,119
that a little bit more than having
to like continue to buy like the booster

679
00:46:51,159 --> 00:46:54,320
packs and stuff. But don't you
think the same, But like the vibe

680
00:46:54,320 --> 00:47:00,960
I've gotten from the you know,
card collectible weirdos that are even more pervier

681
00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:05,280
than I are, Like, yeah, but everyone's going to be collecting with

682
00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:10,880
this as well. Yeah, that's
what I'm asking. So if I buy

683
00:47:12,559 --> 00:47:17,119
Disney lorc Cana Lorcana Lorcana, do
I get the entire set in one box,

684
00:47:17,159 --> 00:47:22,079
like a like a tabletop game,
Like I can't. I don't know

685
00:47:22,199 --> 00:47:24,440
to whether or not that's true.
Okay, all right, it sounds like

686
00:47:25,039 --> 00:47:30,360
if there's collecting elements, probably not, it's probably it seems like they sell

687
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:32,719
booster paths. But yeah, no, I'm out. I can't. I

688
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:37,280
can't go there. I can't put
on that ren. I think, Well,

689
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,360
look, I wonder if the well, it's the only the only thing

690
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:47,679
I collect are magnets, fridge magnets, because I know they're worthless when I

691
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:50,960
go somewhere. Whenever I go somewhere, I go to like the you know,

692
00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:53,800
the aquarium shed aquarium, Well I'll
get a magnet because they're cheap and

693
00:47:53,920 --> 00:48:00,159
it's a it's a member of Memento
and it won't be worth anything and look

694
00:48:00,199 --> 00:48:06,960
like fish a lot. So they're
fun. I like this a lot,

695
00:48:07,039 --> 00:48:15,599
definitely. Let's just say that I
might be in a situation soon that perhaps

696
00:48:15,079 --> 00:48:17,400
I don't know. It depends on
when these are available. I don't know

697
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:22,239
if it's the available year round.
Actually no, you can get a magnet

698
00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:25,559
any Yes, I'm aware of that. I'm talking about lor Kano. They've

699
00:48:25,599 --> 00:48:30,440
apparently hit small card shops. They're
not hitting wide rely suggest yet you think

700
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:35,360
they're like at the source, Yeah, you gotta go to a card could

701
00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:37,400
comforting with a mouse? Is this
what you're suggesting? Oh no, so

702
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:42,000
here's a weird thing. Sometimes they're
not at the sign Magic Kingdom. What's

703
00:48:42,039 --> 00:48:45,880
that? Sometimes they're not at the
source, like any other Disney related product

704
00:48:46,079 --> 00:48:52,159
is not available at the source because
the source sells very hyper specific things like

705
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:55,280
fun spirit jerseys. Oh Backlar,
you and the fam got to get a

706
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:59,000
spirit jersey. You know. I
don't know what that is, but I'll

707
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:00,480
look it up. I'll sell them
on the cruise. When you're there,

708
00:49:00,519 --> 00:49:05,039
I just ask Captain Mickey. He'll
tell you where you can buy them.

709
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:07,920
Oh God, Okay, keep going
tell me more. But man, I'm

710
00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:12,039
looking at this Mickey Mouse, the
Brave Little Tailor card. Look at this

711
00:49:12,079 --> 00:49:14,800
little guy. It's got big scissors
and everything. What are you going at

712
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:19,599
him? So what I'm trying to
manifest is like, yoll send you boy,

713
00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:22,760
send you boy a box. Please
send your boy box. Just just

714
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:24,679
help with the addiction. You know, this is just me trying to come

715
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:30,880
clean. Just just just help you. Yeah, nothing like continue to give

716
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:36,159
me the drug I need. Yeah
taste, John Drake, Oh, it's

717
00:49:36,199 --> 00:49:39,559
helping me. Look John Drake,
you probably have nothing to do with this

718
00:49:39,599 --> 00:49:43,199
game, but it's Disney, so
I think it's you, all right,

719
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:49,719
the heir to the Disney Empire.
John Drake, Yeah, exactly. Send

720
00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:52,599
me to disney Land again so I
could play a card game me and Mike.

721
00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:57,199
Well, we'll go. What do
they What do they retail for the

722
00:49:57,239 --> 00:49:59,880
booster boxes? Do you know?
I don't know what the box is going

723
00:50:00,039 --> 00:50:01,400
for. I might need to hit
up the plug. I may need to

724
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:07,840
hit up my barber. That's where
I go for all my narcotic I mean,

725
00:50:08,079 --> 00:50:10,519
trading cards. If I have to
shave my head, he's gonna be

726
00:50:10,519 --> 00:50:14,440
so upset with me. He's gonna
be mad at you. He'll help you

727
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:15,920
beat Zelda. Then you tell him
what's going on, he'll help. Yeah,

728
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:21,079
he's like personally invested. You're gonna
show it. You are, You're

729
00:50:21,079 --> 00:50:24,320
gonna yeah, exactly, Bailey,
You're gonna show up, and dude's gonna

730
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:28,920
be like, number one, you
fucking cheated on me. Number two?

731
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,360
What am I spretty to do with
this? Now? He just has my

732
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:37,360
voice, but just like on a
lower register, we're pretty much the same

733
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:40,480
person. He has a corgy.
I have a question, assumed I whenever

734
00:50:40,519 --> 00:50:44,480
you talk about Barbera jan it's just
you and my brain, that's all I

735
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,000
imagine. He wears cool, sunning
glasses. I can't wear sunglasses because I'm

736
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:52,320
blind. But anyone got any other
games to talk about? I do have

737
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:58,079
a question. Anyone's gonna play Immortals
of a VM. So I watched Dan

738
00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:01,440
play yesterday and I the card,
but literally just turned it on and then

739
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:04,239
I was like, man, I'm
too busy. I'll get back to this

740
00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:07,360
maybe before the BombCast. And then
that didn't happen. So what was your

741
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:12,679
takeaway from that? Yeah? I
mean without actually getting hands on myself right,

742
00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:15,679
just take that with a grain of
salt there. That game is all

743
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:21,679
about hands though, yeah, it's
very much like dual hand like one you

744
00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:25,239
know, one hand shoots stuff,
the other does magic kind of thing.

745
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:29,679
And it just seemed like that was
the loop, and you're just sort of

746
00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:34,840
like, you know, unlocking another
mission and going forward again. I don't

747
00:51:35,199 --> 00:51:37,599
I don't want to. It's very
much cut out of that same cloth that

748
00:51:37,639 --> 00:51:42,639
I feel like where games need to
break out of the thing and do something

749
00:51:42,679 --> 00:51:45,280
special for you to remain kind of
interested in. This seemed to very much

750
00:51:45,639 --> 00:51:52,400
play in that very safe, repetitive
loop. And I think having you know,

751
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:55,440
played, you know, playing those
kinds of games for this what feels

752
00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:59,679
like over a decade now, where
like these are just very much the same

753
00:51:59,679 --> 00:52:04,199
sort of thing. It's difficult to
kind of like make the argument for why

754
00:52:04,199 --> 00:52:06,800
you would want to stick around,
right, Like, something's got to pop

755
00:52:07,199 --> 00:52:12,440
in it. Is it like the
really cool you know combat, Is that

756
00:52:12,519 --> 00:52:15,320
like the thing that does it for
you? Is it the story? Is

757
00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:17,320
it the just the design of the
world and the kind of world building it

758
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:22,480
within and everything fidelity wise, and
that sort of like seemed pretty above average.

759
00:52:22,519 --> 00:52:27,039
But like you know, I know
Dan's done with that game for sure,

760
00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:32,280
and looking at it and being like
kind of interested in what it was

761
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:37,760
doing and what it had to say. You know, again, maybe it's

762
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,800
the desire to be overly economical.
What's the games we decide to choose and

763
00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:45,679
play at this point in our lives, But like, it probably just falls

764
00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:47,960
a little short of that. But
again, watch the quickly from probably take

765
00:52:49,159 --> 00:52:52,360
take away the same you know,
realization from it from what I'm debating whether

766
00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:55,079
or not to do an honest game
trailer about it. I'm like, is

767
00:52:55,199 --> 00:52:58,840
it bad enough that it's funny?
Oh? No, I don't think it's.

768
00:52:59,119 --> 00:53:00,360
No, I don't think see,
I think it's very much in the

769
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:05,719
middle. I like we actually we
actually, yeah, we talked exactly about

770
00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:07,039
it because Dan was saying like,
oh, it's so you know, it's

771
00:53:07,119 --> 00:53:12,119
so easy to write about a game
you love. It's so easy to write

772
00:53:12,119 --> 00:53:15,599
about a game you don't love it. The hardest thing is like middle of

773
00:53:15,599 --> 00:53:17,599
the road shit, and I think
this is on the higher end of that.

774
00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:22,800
But yeah, it's just a bit
unremarkable. Does it? Does it

775
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:27,119
lean into the cheese at all?
Baccalar of, Like, how do you

776
00:53:27,199 --> 00:53:32,599
think, like yeah, I don't
think I could like speak to that specifically,

777
00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:37,079
but it is, you know,
like it is the most I mean,

778
00:53:37,199 --> 00:53:40,800
I look like, I think in
all the previews and stuff, that

779
00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:44,519
game looked interesting enough for me to
sort of be like, well, I

780
00:53:44,599 --> 00:53:45,599
just want to see what that looks
like, and I just want to like

781
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:52,000
know exactly how that get its thing. Just get acquainted with it, because,

782
00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:54,119
like you said, like economic with
our time, a lot of games

783
00:53:54,159 --> 00:53:57,920
you could play for three hours and
be like I get it, move on

784
00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:00,679
totally. Yeah, I think that
with Immortals. Yeah, I think that's

785
00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:04,519
going to be the case for a
lot of people. I think we also

786
00:54:04,679 --> 00:54:07,480
said, like, hey, this
is like a prime like wait till it's

787
00:54:07,519 --> 00:54:09,239
on sale thing if you are super
intrigued, if you're not one of the

788
00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:14,760
first people who have to play,
this thing feels like it's it'll it'll,

789
00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:19,079
you know. Possibly you could probably
play the first couple hours on game pass

790
00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:24,119
right because it's a EA play usual
they have like the game previews, so

791
00:54:24,199 --> 00:54:27,760
you can like just download and play
for a couple of hours before that timer

792
00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:29,880
runs up. I could be that
could be wrong. Maybe that doesn't apply

793
00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:31,920
to every game anymore. It used
to so maybe I'll do that. A

794
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:36,679
lot of the packaging, like the
menu packaging like look a lot like God

795
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:39,559
of War. And I do think
there are aesthetic similarities here and there.

796
00:54:40,079 --> 00:54:44,480
It's first person though, so it's
like, you know, obviously not that

797
00:54:44,679 --> 00:54:49,119
kind of action game, but yeah, it's just you know, the half

798
00:54:49,159 --> 00:54:52,039
a dozen things that you know are
going to be in there. We're like,

799
00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:53,719
oh, you get warped to a
combat are you know where you have

800
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:58,880
to like take out waves of things
you you know, we'll get to an

801
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:01,480
area where you have like, you
know, save a quick and dirty little

802
00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:05,960
puzzle. I just think there's a
lot of stuff that everyone's kind of seen

803
00:55:06,039 --> 00:55:08,679
before there. I think that I
said this during the quickly like it looks

804
00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:14,400
cool as hell, Like there's cool
sort of ideas. And when I saw

805
00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:17,480
the the f and vs or the
cinematics, really like they put a lot

806
00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:21,039
of money into those. Yeah,
for sure, Like there's polished there.

807
00:55:21,159 --> 00:55:23,119
There's oodles of polish. Yeah.
I was gonna say it didn't feel it

808
00:55:23,199 --> 00:55:28,599
felt disingenuous to call it a B
game or trying to categorize it there because

809
00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:32,679
it has more budget than your prototypical
B game. I think unfortunately. Also

810
00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:37,119
the name of the game just makes
me feel like it's going to get lost

811
00:55:37,199 --> 00:55:43,559
in the ether almost immediately, because
Immortals of Avum gives me the same vibe

812
00:55:43,599 --> 00:55:51,239
that Valerian and the City of a
Thousand Planets game. Yeasy, like just

813
00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:53,679
call it Avium like or or you
know, or like just do something.

814
00:55:54,039 --> 00:56:00,079
Yeah, I'm with you there for
sure. It's name. Yes. The

815
00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:02,079
other the other one that I'm curious
about that I haven't had time and I

816
00:56:02,119 --> 00:56:05,239
feel bad about. I wish I
could have talked about it on this BombCast

817
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:10,159
is jump Light Odyssey. This is
the spaceship management sim where you know,

818
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:14,719
kind of like it's similar in a
lot of ways to FTL. It seems

819
00:56:15,559 --> 00:56:17,719
where like you're managing ship, but
in this one it's much more. It's

820
00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:21,639
like FTL meets the sims, Like
there's a lot of people on your ship

821
00:56:21,760 --> 00:56:25,480
walking around and they're doing jobs,
and it looks really promising. It's an

822
00:56:25,519 --> 00:56:30,639
early access. It came out yesterday
yesterday. It seems like it's doing really

823
00:56:30,679 --> 00:56:34,000
well in terms of like user reviews
on Steam, and I just I really

824
00:56:34,079 --> 00:56:37,480
like the way it looks, and
I like, I love FTL. So

825
00:56:37,519 --> 00:56:39,239
if it's like, this is another
spin on that count me in. It's

826
00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:44,000
like, you know, uh,
Star Trek Star Trek Management Salmon's like you

827
00:56:44,039 --> 00:56:45,280
ever wanted one of those. It
feels like this is actually doing that.

828
00:56:45,519 --> 00:56:49,960
So I'm gonna give this a try. Probably now that I played enough Bomb

829
00:56:50,039 --> 00:56:52,840
Rush to talk about, I'm like, I'll try this next and see which

830
00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:54,840
one I want to keep going on
with. Oh, while we're talking about

831
00:56:54,920 --> 00:56:59,960
games that we haven't devoted too much
time to, a game that I've had

832
00:57:00,159 --> 00:57:04,239
my eye on for a long time
is finally out. It's a tactics game

833
00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:07,840
called Cantata can Tata. I don't
know how to pronounce anything, folks,

834
00:57:08,199 --> 00:57:13,000
U c A n ta ta.
It's a tactics cantata. So I think

835
00:57:13,039 --> 00:57:17,119
you were right the first time.
Trade Magnifique. It's a tactics game in

836
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:23,599
not quite like a pixel style.
I'm not sure how to describe it here,

837
00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:28,360
but it's a tactics game, and
you boy loves tactics. This game

838
00:57:28,639 --> 00:57:32,960
arguably almost has too many tiles and
has a bunch of systems impossible. Maybe

839
00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:39,159
art looks so cool? Does it
looks really good? Trailers? It looks

840
00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:45,320
very different. Uh, The in
game cinematics. It does seem kind of

841
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:50,559
difficult from the early access Demoi played, but who knows what it's like now

842
00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:58,360
it's giving me. It's giving me
like low intentionally low res haites vibes from

843
00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:01,840
like screenshots on looking at or it's
just like a sexy pixel man standing in

844
00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:06,320
front of a bunch of sexy pixels. There we go, There we go.

845
00:58:06,559 --> 00:58:07,880
I know what it looks like to
me. I mean, it looks

846
00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:12,519
like a totally different game entirely,
but vibe wise from the screenshots. I'm

847
00:58:12,559 --> 00:58:15,840
already in all right, I'm looking. I'm looking at this. This looks

848
00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:19,280
okay, yeah, yeah, this
looks really good. It seems like a

849
00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:22,360
perfect game to play on a Steam
deck if someone wasn't locked into playing Tears

850
00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:29,199
of the Kingdom for the rest of
my life. Last thing on the dock

851
00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:35,559
here it says talking about the current
state of roadblocks. So I just want

852
00:58:35,599 --> 00:58:38,239
to like chime in on that.
I know we've like, okay, obviously

853
00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:42,800
we all know how we collectively feel
about roblocks back art real quick. So

854
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:46,320
I was going through old episodes of
the bomb Cast and like uploading them making

855
00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:52,599
sure they're because you know, we're
we're going and adding markers because of you

856
00:58:52,679 --> 00:58:55,599
know, some some new bidness,
some business talk. Oh yeah, I

857
00:58:55,880 --> 00:59:00,639
was getting I was explaining to that, explaining a lot to the folks at

858
00:59:00,679 --> 00:59:06,360
home, you know, like if
they've noticed some stuff, some funky business

859
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:10,079
with their podcast feeds, if stuff
isn't loading properly, un subscribe or subscribe

860
00:59:10,079 --> 00:59:15,920
to God's Favorite podcast. Uh.
And then episode seven hundred and seventy you

861
00:59:16,039 --> 00:59:22,920
were talking about Dibb and his Roadblocks
problem, and this has been an ongoing

862
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:30,519
saga. Is DIBs still having trouble
with Roadblocks? I mean he's not.

863
00:59:30,679 --> 00:59:36,039
He's not having trouble like anyone who
plays Roadblocks. He's having trouble. I

864
00:59:36,199 --> 00:59:39,960
think crisis. I just think,
like I pulled a little bit at the

865
00:59:40,119 --> 00:59:47,920
thread of the sweater with these like
twenty thirty something. Uh. YouTube streamers,

866
00:59:49,199 --> 00:59:53,440
YouTubers who like have a piece of
the development of Roadblocks games and then

867
00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:59,559
use their popularity to like feed the
beast and get like the you know under

868
01:00:00,079 --> 01:00:01,960
you know, thirteen year olds who
make up the majority of their audience to

869
01:00:02,079 --> 01:00:07,039
just you know, fucking pump uh
pump and pump and pump into the micro

870
01:00:07,159 --> 01:00:13,639
transaction hellscape at all. Right,
So, like that and like look like

871
01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:20,639
on its face you're like, all
right, well that's okay to a very

872
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:24,480
like certain point, but it's not
at all. And in reality, I

873
01:00:24,599 --> 01:00:29,880
think, like you know, I
know Patrick's been actually doing reporting on it

874
01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:32,320
with his uh with his newsletter.
He should you should check it out it

875
01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:38,119
because it's it really does like yeah, and it I think it's great for

876
01:00:38,239 --> 01:00:43,679
people who just like want to cut
through the bullshit of like when you search

877
01:00:43,760 --> 01:00:46,119
for a thing you want to have
information about, right, You're like,

878
01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:50,440
is Roadblocks good for my kids?
You're just gonna first thing you're gonna hit

879
01:00:50,519 --> 01:00:54,000
is like all the SEO bullshit that
like gamed the al Goo to like show

880
01:00:54,079 --> 01:00:59,320
up first and any of the real
information. Patrick helps you cut through that

881
01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:02,000
bullshit. So shout out to Patrick. He's star reporting on this. And

882
01:01:02,159 --> 01:01:08,000
like these streamers, right, they
like change the name of their Roadblocks games

883
01:01:08,079 --> 01:01:13,559
as well. So there's a bit
So there's this like deceptive not a bait

884
01:01:13,639 --> 01:01:17,239
and switch, but like there is
this sort of like rejuggling and reshuffling of

885
01:01:17,519 --> 01:01:23,000
the of the loops. So like
some some people I imagine feel like they

886
01:01:23,119 --> 01:01:29,079
need to then support this new game
that looks similar to the old game and

887
01:01:29,159 --> 01:01:32,119
again like it's all being done by
the same developer slash publisher within Roadblocks,

888
01:01:32,199 --> 01:01:36,880
right, like because there's all these
you know now that Roadblocks is what it

889
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:40,679
is. Those's like all these developer
teams and houses that put out a dozen

890
01:01:40,760 --> 01:01:45,039
of these games that are just marginally
different from one to the next. It's

891
01:01:45,119 --> 01:01:52,440
just it just feels so nefarious and
so icky, like you try and you

892
01:01:52,519 --> 01:01:55,159
know, like I look at Candy
Crush and I'm like, wow, bastion

893
01:01:55,280 --> 01:02:00,599
of like normalcy, even though it's
just a casino with like you know,

894
01:02:00,840 --> 01:02:06,599
fucking uh pay to you know what's
it called pay to like grind or whatever?

895
01:02:06,719 --> 01:02:08,199
Right, so you know what,
it reminds me of what you just

896
01:02:08,239 --> 01:02:10,360
subscribed. It reminds me of TikTok, where it's like, you know,

897
01:02:10,599 --> 01:02:15,840
people TikTok creators will do like the
same video basically over and over, slight

898
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:20,400
changes to will change an outfit,
and eventually one of them will catch the

899
01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:22,679
algorithm, and it's like they're just
waiting for that, and it's like I'm

900
01:02:22,719 --> 01:02:27,400
like, I don't know if I
hold that against creators, Like that's the

901
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:30,639
system that they're existing in, and
so they're trying to manipulate that. But

902
01:02:32,119 --> 01:02:36,039
I mean, there's not much you
can do. We don't have a say

903
01:02:36,079 --> 01:02:37,639
in how the system works. So
it's like it's, yeah, this is

904
01:02:37,679 --> 01:02:42,079
the result, and I don't know
if that's good creativity. It doesn't necessarily

905
01:02:42,079 --> 01:02:45,559
feel that way. So yeah,
I don't know how is did feeling about

906
01:02:45,599 --> 01:02:49,280
roadblocks these days. I think he
you know, I think he's still too

907
01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:52,559
young to realize what's really kind of
happening. And that makes sense, right,

908
01:02:52,599 --> 01:02:54,280
And that's for me the biggest issue, because there is this sense of

909
01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:59,760
like exploitation there where the vast majority
of that audience is so young that the

910
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:04,239
on it don't appreciate like what what
exactly is happening and how their attention is

911
01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:08,280
really being manipulated. So, you
know, I don't know, I struggle

912
01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:13,760
with it. I'd be lying if
I said that, Like I've seen a

913
01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:15,599
rollbocks game where I'm like, hey, that's actually kind of fucking cool,

914
01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:20,119
right, Like, there's definitely shit
out there. Right then It's not a

915
01:03:20,199 --> 01:03:23,559
blanket statement because rollbocks is such a
gigantic platform, but I do think there

916
01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:30,079
is a bit of nefariousness kind of
going on with some of these developers and

917
01:03:30,159 --> 01:03:32,920
it's just like fuck, it's like
you know again, like leave it to

918
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:37,559
me to be like, yo,
play fort play Fortnite. Just play Fortnite,

919
01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:44,199
like have a have a wholesome time. Well, I mean there,

920
01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:47,639
they've introduced the ability to create custom
game modes and like I saw a full

921
01:03:47,719 --> 01:03:52,719
on Final Fantasy fourteen style raid inside
of Fortnite, which is wild, and

922
01:03:52,840 --> 01:04:00,440
like they made Fortnite look like Call
of Duty, absolutely wild. Yeah,

923
01:04:00,519 --> 01:04:02,400
maybe go play Fortnite. I don't
know. Yeah, I think what it

924
01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:08,599
does looks insane a good way.
They look really stupid. I love it,

925
01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:14,039
but I really do think we need
to like all jump into rollblocks once

926
01:04:14,079 --> 01:04:15,960
together, like yeah, you know
what I mean, Like we have to

927
01:04:16,119 --> 01:04:24,000
just do this as just more of
like an explorer, an informational exploratory mission.

928
01:04:24,159 --> 01:04:29,960
Right, we're like all the submarine
us. Yeah exactly, Like we're

929
01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:33,199
just going on this like excursion.
We don't really have a guide, but

930
01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:36,320
like maybe we should just go.
Maybe DIVI can guide us. I don't

931
01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:39,960
know, but we need to.
That would be fun if he was our

932
01:04:40,039 --> 01:04:45,480
z suo. But shit, it's
uh, it is really something else and

933
01:04:45,599 --> 01:04:50,559
it feels bad, and you know, I do see signs that maybe he

934
01:04:50,679 --> 01:04:54,679
is on his way to begin to
grow out of it a little bit.

935
01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:59,880
You know, it'll probably relapse a
couple of times before he gets out of

936
01:04:59,920 --> 01:05:01,480
it without a doubt. And like
do you think you know? I was?

937
01:05:01,719 --> 01:05:04,000
I was confidently like, oh,
this might teach him a little bit

938
01:05:04,039 --> 01:05:09,039
about like the value of money,
right because you know he wants all these

939
01:05:09,199 --> 01:05:12,760
like roebucks and he wants to get
the thing. And then I'll like take

940
01:05:12,880 --> 01:05:15,440
real world examples and try and do
like a one to one world by like,

941
01:05:15,519 --> 01:05:19,760
look, man, this Pokemon pack
is worth that thing that you have,

942
01:05:20,039 --> 01:05:24,320
Like do you see the relation?
Like do you see how when you

943
01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:29,039
just asked me for ninety eight dollars
in roadblocks? How insane that is?

944
01:05:29,199 --> 01:05:30,760
Right? Like so I think he's
learning a little bit with that. Yeah,

945
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:33,760
but you know what he could do
is he could use this the API

946
01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:40,599
that Roadblocks has connect his Roadblocks account
to one of these external gambling sites.

947
01:05:40,679 --> 01:05:44,239
Take those robocks, go there,
gamble, make a ton of money on

948
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:45,679
that, take that back in the
roadblocks, and now he's got a lot

949
01:05:45,719 --> 01:05:51,639
more money. Something that does happen, and it does work. So I

950
01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:59,199
promise you he has seen videos where
like he has been indirectly encouraged to do

951
01:05:59,400 --> 01:06:03,920
something like that without and like and
look like at some point, I know

952
01:06:04,039 --> 01:06:06,480
you can say, like, well, hey, we can't blame the people

953
01:06:06,519 --> 01:06:10,840
who are just caught up in the
business model of this thing. But like,

954
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:15,639
I know, but again, it's
like it's a it's a very difficult

955
01:06:15,719 --> 01:06:18,320
Yeah, don't you don't have to
give in to the to the worst of

956
01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:23,440
course, not, of course not, but like, god damn it,

957
01:06:24,079 --> 01:06:29,679
Yep, roadblocks continues to be terrifying. And I can't wait maybe five ten

958
01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:34,599
years down the line to see the
documentary detailing and breaking apart roadblocks, just

959
01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:40,440
like developers in a dark room or
people that are now entering their late twenties.

960
01:06:40,599 --> 01:06:44,880
Like you know, I've played roadblocks
when I was six and uh bankrupted

961
01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:47,039
my whole family, spent my grandpa's
fortune, my trust, I spent my

962
01:06:47,119 --> 01:06:54,599
trust on to adopt people. I
can't wait for that, and you don't

963
01:06:54,760 --> 01:06:57,199
have to wait anymore. Okay,
yes, back, Look, I'm sorry,

964
01:06:57,239 --> 01:06:59,360
I'm sorry. I know you're saying
we was gonna kick ass. I'm

965
01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:02,440
sorry. I yearned for the beat
him ramping up to it, and I

966
01:07:02,559 --> 01:07:05,639
was just like, hey, can
I stand here. It's like interrupted the

967
01:07:05,679 --> 01:07:09,199
DJ right before he's about to drop
the beat. What's wrong with you?

968
01:07:09,840 --> 01:07:15,679
DJs are bad? A dab i
uh. I yearned for the days of

969
01:07:15,800 --> 01:07:17,679
like him spending all that money on
blue acorns? Do you remember that from

970
01:07:17,719 --> 01:07:23,840
Trials? Like I miss I miss
I missed those day I was back in

971
01:07:23,880 --> 01:07:27,360
front of him. Yeah, I
miss those days. I look back on

972
01:07:27,440 --> 01:07:30,440
them fondly and think, Yeah,
you're like, there's something missing from your

973
01:07:30,440 --> 01:07:33,159
life. You know what it is? It's the room the motorcycle fun.

974
01:07:34,079 --> 01:07:38,519
Whenever my wife hears that sound,
she gets very upset because because I will

975
01:07:38,559 --> 01:07:41,079
do the same jump a million times
trying to hit it, and it's just

976
01:07:41,199 --> 01:07:45,519
like, so you's here or crash, crash a thousand times in a day.

977
01:07:45,639 --> 01:07:50,119
So yeah, that's probably pretty annoying. It's time for I know the

978
01:07:50,159 --> 01:07:54,519
segue new Trials. We we already. We didn't steer into the skid,

979
01:07:54,599 --> 01:07:59,000
We just full and turned around and
flipped over. But anyway, you don't

980
01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:01,480
need to wait any more. Are
who watch the new Honest game trailers that

981
01:08:01,639 --> 01:08:06,679
is just out now? Bailey Myers
thirteen minutes ago. Yeah, I can

982
01:08:06,719 --> 01:08:12,280
do two things at once. There
we go get the bare footie. But

983
01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:15,479
it's all right. The new Honest
Game Trailers is out now, folks watching

984
01:08:15,600 --> 01:08:20,279
live. We will not be talking
over Opening Night Live because it will interfere

985
01:08:20,319 --> 01:08:26,439
with the podcast, but we'll probably
do like a trailer trash trailer park enough

986
01:08:27,039 --> 01:08:30,279
round up. Yeah, if there
is enough, I mean, Greb,

987
01:08:30,359 --> 01:08:33,159
we'll probably talk about on Game Miss
Mornings throughout the week. Anyway, you

988
01:08:33,479 --> 01:08:36,880
have something really big happens during the
show, I'll drop it in. It's

989
01:08:36,920 --> 01:08:40,640
fine, but we'll definitely we'll do
a round up on Game Mess Mornings and

990
01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:44,720
then if there is enough cool stuff
that we'll get the crew together and we'll

991
01:08:44,760 --> 01:08:47,159
do a trailer trash round up.
Yes, Tam and Lucy are on the

992
01:08:47,239 --> 01:08:53,520
ground now at Opening Night Live,
hanging out with the Beyonce of video games,

993
01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:58,079
Jeff Keeley himself. But I gotta
go take quick breaking break and we'll

994
01:08:58,239 --> 01:09:08,640
be back with the news. What's
the trailer? What's trailer? And we're

995
01:09:08,720 --> 01:09:17,159
back with the news, Jeff take
it away. Yeah, you all right.

996
01:09:17,199 --> 01:09:26,119
I'm not I'm not doing now.
I'm upset because Happy trails to Charles

997
01:09:26,239 --> 01:09:30,640
Martiney. Charles martine the voice of
Nintendo's Mario for over twenty five years,

998
01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:33,159
will no longer voice the character,
and it's transitioning to a new role as

999
01:09:33,319 --> 01:09:39,199
Mario Ambassador. Nintendo announced. In
this capacity, Martine will continue to engage

1000
01:09:39,239 --> 01:09:43,039
with fans around the world, but
we'll step back from voice acting in games.

1001
01:09:43,399 --> 01:09:46,000
Speculation about this change had grown since
June, when some fans noticed the

1002
01:09:46,039 --> 01:09:50,199
difference in Mario's voice in recent trailers
for Super Mario Brothers wonder I of course

1003
01:09:50,279 --> 01:09:53,680
was like, no, that's impossible. It's always going to be Charles Martiney

1004
01:09:53,720 --> 01:09:57,439
and I was very wrong. The
decision may also be related to casting Chris

1005
01:09:57,560 --> 01:10:00,800
Pratt as Mario in the upcoming Super
pre In the previously released Super Mario Brothers

1006
01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:05,039
movie, where martine only has a
cameo, I think it more likely than

1007
01:10:05,119 --> 01:10:09,520
that has to do with him being
sixty seven years old ready to retire,

1008
01:10:10,039 --> 01:10:13,159
and I think this is a cool
thing if he got to, like go

1009
01:10:13,279 --> 01:10:15,600
out on his terms and it's still
going to get a paycheck from Nintendo to

1010
01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:19,640
do fun things like travel and go
say hi to fans. Uh. Still,

1011
01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:23,520
though it's the it's the end of
an era like thing. Eventually things

1012
01:10:23,840 --> 01:10:29,039
have to change. I definitely didn't
like notice the new voice in the in

1013
01:10:29,119 --> 01:10:31,000
the Wonder trailer when I was listening, like, oh, I'm sure that's

1014
01:10:31,039 --> 01:10:33,520
just a new recording, new new
direction or something like that. Like,

1015
01:10:33,600 --> 01:10:38,560
no, that's someone's still trying to
sound like what Charles martine made Mario sound

1016
01:10:38,680 --> 01:10:41,439
like. So for the most part, you know, yeah, things will

1017
01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:44,880
be different, but they're still gonna
be mostly the same. I don't know

1018
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:48,560
that Charles Martiney did the a lot
of other voices in Nintendo Warrio and like

1019
01:10:48,680 --> 01:10:51,680
at all the characters from the Warrior
Ware games stuff like that. The New

1020
01:10:51,760 --> 01:10:55,960
Dragonball movie, he was fantastic,
Was he really? I didn't know that

1021
01:10:56,439 --> 01:11:00,159
he was. He was Magenta,
he was the bad guy, he was

1022
01:11:00,279 --> 01:11:03,319
crazy, he's he's he is an
actual Like people are like he just does

1023
01:11:03,399 --> 01:11:05,840
that one voice remark. It's like
no, he's a real voice actor and

1024
01:11:05,920 --> 01:11:10,600
has a huge range and could do
anything. I mean, yes, in

1025
01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:14,319
the supermar Brothers movie where he's like, here's my just normal accent when I

1026
01:11:14,359 --> 01:11:16,560
played his father and stuff like that. But uh yeah, sixty seven time

1027
01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:20,039
to retire and do some fun stuff
for Nintendo. I think that's that's pretty

1028
01:11:20,079 --> 01:11:23,920
cool. So happy trails to him
for sure. When you when you said,

1029
01:11:24,359 --> 01:11:27,960
uh, when you even mentioned the
Chris Prett, Like, where's that

1030
01:11:28,079 --> 01:11:31,279
coming from. I mean, that's
speculation from some of the reporting, but

1031
01:11:31,439 --> 01:11:35,000
I don't think that's real. I
don't think that has anything to do with

1032
01:11:35,239 --> 01:11:40,560
Uh, it's not Chris Prett's fault. Chris Prett didn't come be like this

1033
01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:45,119
is my turf now, bitch,
like that didn't for anything. And I

1034
01:11:45,159 --> 01:11:48,319
don't think he had anything to do
with this. I think he's an innocent

1035
01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:54,479
standard and this sixty seven year old
successful man being like I'm kind of tired,

1036
01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:56,760
I'm done, I don't want to
do it anymore. Yeah, that

1037
01:11:56,800 --> 01:12:00,960
makes it not me anymore, doesn't
do it because he's fucking retired. He's

1038
01:12:01,039 --> 01:12:08,079
done. We pay we get an
old Mario game. No, we're gonna

1039
01:12:08,079 --> 01:12:11,239
get an old Mario game after this
at the end of the Switches life and

1040
01:12:11,680 --> 01:12:15,239
Mario no'll just be like Logan but
Mario, Yeah, it would be great.

1041
01:12:15,279 --> 01:12:19,520
He's like, Mario is gonna have
to carry Toad around because Toad it

1042
01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:24,479
just keeps pooping himself and can't can't
keep control of himself. And then he's

1043
01:12:24,520 --> 01:12:28,319
gonna get like a little Mario child
that isn't his. But maybe is his

1044
01:12:28,680 --> 01:12:32,199
It's gonna be great. That sounds
very good. I feel like, uh,

1045
01:12:32,800 --> 01:12:34,760
you know, I would have liked
the scene, or maybe they do.

1046
01:12:35,119 --> 01:12:39,000
They make a bigger deal of it
for for the guy, right well,

1047
01:12:39,239 --> 01:12:41,760
so that they are that's not I
don't have it written down here in

1048
01:12:41,800 --> 01:12:45,279
the rundown, but that's a good
point. They said that him, Charles

1049
01:12:45,359 --> 01:12:48,199
Martinet and Miamoto will do a video
that will do together where they talk about

1050
01:12:48,239 --> 01:12:51,039
this and maybe kind of like look
back on his career and kind of give

1051
01:12:51,079 --> 01:12:58,520
him a real sendoff in the near
future. Today's date on it. He's

1052
01:12:58,600 --> 01:13:02,279
not gay to Miomoto space, that's
right, He's there's almost always a direct

1053
01:13:02,319 --> 01:13:06,199
in September. There's probably gonna be
I've heard there's a direct in September probably,

1054
01:13:06,359 --> 01:13:10,720
so they will probably do it there, which I think makes it.

1055
01:13:10,800 --> 01:13:13,640
And then at the same time,
Charles Martineo probably will show up at that

1056
01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:18,479
Nintendo Live event in Seattle doing his
Mario Ambassador stuff. So cool. That's

1057
01:13:18,479 --> 01:13:23,960
stuff that he's been doing anyhow for
a long time. I bet that is

1058
01:13:24,119 --> 01:13:28,199
the side of the business for him
that continues to make sense because a lot

1059
01:13:28,239 --> 01:13:30,920
of times Nintendo be like we're just
going to use the same recording of you

1060
01:13:30,199 --> 01:13:33,840
saying waho from like twenty years ago. We're good. We don't actually need

1061
01:13:33,880 --> 01:13:36,079
you back in the booth. So
I bet that kind of work was like

1062
01:13:36,319 --> 01:13:41,680
inconsistent with Nintendo. So just like
getting a regular paycheck to be the Mario

1063
01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:45,399
ambassador might even be a better deal
in the end than like waiting for them

1064
01:13:45,439 --> 01:13:47,000
to be like all right, here's
a new contract for some new recordings.

1065
01:13:47,079 --> 01:13:51,439
It's like, ah, that's inconsistent, so here he goes, but let's

1066
01:13:51,479 --> 01:13:58,600
go. Microsoft proposed a solution to
its UK regulatory problems. Microsoft has revised

1067
01:13:58,640 --> 01:14:03,479
its proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard by
agreeing to sell cloud streaming rights for Activision

1068
01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:09,279
Blizzard games to publisher Ubisoft. The
change aims to address concerns for it from

1069
01:14:09,279 --> 01:14:13,720
the UK regulator, the Competition Markets
Authority, which had blocked the original deal

1070
01:14:13,880 --> 01:14:19,239
over fears of Microsoft potentially dominating cloud
gaming. The restructured transaction grants Ubisoft exclusive

1071
01:14:19,319 --> 01:14:26,119
worldwide, worldwide streaming rights except in
the European Economic Area, for all existing

1072
01:14:26,199 --> 01:14:30,880
and future Activision Blizzard games for the
next fifteen years. The CMA has reiterated

1073
01:14:30,920 --> 01:14:33,680
its original decision to block the deal, but will now assess the restructure proposal

1074
01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:39,520
in a new phase one investigation,
ensuring the cloud gaming market remains competitive.

1075
01:14:40,199 --> 01:14:44,640
So this is their solution to that. That the one hurdle that remained.

1076
01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:45,760
Basically, if they get over this, they will be able to close the

1077
01:14:45,840 --> 01:14:49,199
deal without any issue. But UK
was like, no, we're worried about

1078
01:14:49,199 --> 01:14:53,119
cloud gaming. Even though no one
else in the world is worried about cloud

1079
01:14:53,199 --> 01:14:59,079
gaming, UK is, And so
the solution here is Activision Blizzard games for

1080
01:14:59,239 --> 01:15:02,239
streaming will go to Ubisoft and Microsoft
will be hands off. So we just

1081
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:08,279
in no way could possibly have a
monopoly on that on that market going forward.

1082
01:15:09,640 --> 01:15:12,960
What does this mean for anybody who's
playing games? Not much, It

1083
01:15:13,039 --> 01:15:15,880
just won't mean much. It means
that you'll see a Ubisoft logo if you're

1084
01:15:15,880 --> 01:15:19,960
streaming your games from somewhere. But
yeah, the story of of this acquisition

1085
01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:25,119
continues to be like the slow march
to the inevitable it going through. At

1086
01:15:25,159 --> 01:15:30,680
this point, it seems like Xbox
is releasing official series X Console raps.

1087
01:15:31,039 --> 01:15:35,520
Microsoft has und hey have you guys
seen this? Actually think it looks really

1088
01:15:35,520 --> 01:15:39,039
good. If you get a chance
to look up the tweet where they announced

1089
01:15:39,079 --> 01:15:43,800
it. Microsoft has unveiled official Xbox
Series X console raps, set to release

1090
01:15:43,920 --> 01:15:46,880
later this year, allowing gamers to
customize their consoles. The raps will be

1091
01:15:46,880 --> 01:15:51,640
available in three styles, a Starfield
themed one, Arctic Camo, and Mineral

1092
01:15:51,720 --> 01:15:56,920
Camo. The Starfield rap will be
available on October eighteenth in the United States,

1093
01:15:57,000 --> 01:16:00,680
Canada, and Europe for fifty dollars
or forty five pounds, while the

1094
01:16:00,760 --> 01:16:05,119
Cambo variants will be released on November
tenth and forty pounds. Yeah, I

1095
01:16:05,279 --> 01:16:10,920
haven't seen them either. They've blend
in and make your Xbox disappear. They

1096
01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:14,520
are designed specifically for the Xbox Series
X, and they they're made of like

1097
01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:18,720
this. They call it high tech
fabric with like plastics as well. It

1098
01:16:18,760 --> 01:16:23,159
probably would reminds me if you ever
had had a fabric phone case. It

1099
01:16:23,239 --> 01:16:26,399
seems pretty similar to that, but
it wraps around and it fits like perfectly

1100
01:16:26,520 --> 01:16:30,039
on there so that it looks like, Nope, that's just a themed Xbox,

1101
01:16:30,159 --> 01:16:31,960
but no, it's wrap. I
like these kinds of things. I

1102
01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:38,119
always want the like, fun looking
consoles, but I'm not going to buy

1103
01:16:38,119 --> 01:16:41,840
a whole new console. In ninety
nine percent of cases, you know,

1104
01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:44,920
three DS being the obvious exception there
for me where I bought a bunch of

1105
01:16:44,960 --> 01:16:49,640
those but wraps in like face plates
and the shells on the PlayStation five,

1106
01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:53,520
I'm all four of that. Is
this something that any of you are considering

1107
01:16:53,600 --> 01:16:55,680
doing? Have you guys seen the
Starfield one? I think it looks really

1108
01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:59,920
good. So I'm watching a gift
of the Starfield one being put on an

1109
01:17:00,119 --> 01:17:04,680
Xbox right now, and I am
utterly mesmerized. I yeah, it's had

1110
01:17:04,720 --> 01:17:09,399
an Xbox and then I'll get a
wrap for it. And that's my plan

1111
01:17:09,640 --> 01:17:12,399
for me. This looks great.
I'm just gonna wrap it on, wrap

1112
01:17:12,560 --> 01:17:15,520
it. Who needs game exactly?
Yeah, it's so satisfying. Yeah,

1113
01:17:15,119 --> 01:17:18,479
you know, I forgot that.
I also don't have an Xbox, so

1114
01:17:19,079 --> 01:17:24,399
I can't get one of these raps. Yet it looks really snazzy, Like,

1115
01:17:24,800 --> 01:17:28,159
uh, it seems like a no
brainer. They could sell. They

1116
01:17:28,199 --> 01:17:30,159
could sell these in droves, y'all, Like, oh my god, the

1117
01:17:30,279 --> 01:17:38,880
margins they're making on these fucking stickers. Yeah, y'all remember how wild people

1118
01:17:38,920 --> 01:17:42,039
went over face plates? Like,
oh yeah, this is just the natural

1119
01:17:42,079 --> 01:17:45,319
evolution of this. This makes me
wish I just had like a catch all

1120
01:17:45,399 --> 01:17:48,520
outfit like a uniform, you know, like just you could just put put

1121
01:17:48,800 --> 01:17:53,359
like a cover on here. Yeah, oh man, god, this looks

1122
01:17:53,399 --> 01:17:56,560
good. I mean you can look, you can already get stuff like this

1123
01:17:56,720 --> 01:18:00,479
already. I mean there's brand there's
brands out there that do this, you

1124
01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:04,760
know least. Yeah, these are
the definitely a little bit different than that,

1125
01:18:04,880 --> 01:18:11,079
and that they are they are higher
quality material and they aren't there that

1126
01:18:11,119 --> 01:18:15,239
they seem reusable to come on and
off. And can you watch color forms?

1127
01:18:15,079 --> 01:18:19,000
Huh? Are they color forms?
No, it's like a hard material.

1128
01:18:19,159 --> 01:18:21,399
It's like I said, it's like
a phone case kind of thing.

1129
01:18:21,920 --> 01:18:25,279
So I guess, yeah, all
right, it's now you're you're making me

1130
01:18:25,319 --> 01:18:28,079
think of like, like you said, a fabric phone case kind of thing,

1131
01:18:28,199 --> 01:18:30,319
like, yeah, a plate almost
like an actual plates. Yeah,

1132
01:18:30,439 --> 01:18:36,279
basically, Okay. I think that
you can differ because I had a third

1133
01:18:36,359 --> 01:18:42,920
party case shell from my PlayStation four
Pro that made it look like wood paneling,

1134
01:18:43,279 --> 01:18:45,600
and those were on the outside it's
like faux wood, and on the

1135
01:18:45,680 --> 01:18:48,760
inside that it was like it was
like sticky material and they get to like

1136
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:53,399
carefully stick it to each little and
put it together and it looked great in

1137
01:18:53,439 --> 01:18:55,840
the end, but it was like, that was a hassle and there was

1138
01:18:55,880 --> 01:18:57,920
a lot of work and I'm not
gonna be able to change that. This

1139
01:18:58,079 --> 01:19:01,319
does feel much more like face play
modular. Yeah, you like you wrap

1140
01:19:01,359 --> 01:19:04,199
it around the back. It's like
it's like put an underwear on an Xbox.

1141
01:19:04,239 --> 01:19:05,920
Honestly, what is it? Looks
like you just put it on and

1142
01:19:06,079 --> 01:19:09,920
you just take it off. You
put on it looks like you're swaddling an

1143
01:19:10,119 --> 01:19:15,640
Xbox, right, swaddling good Xbox. You just go to sleep. I

1144
01:19:15,760 --> 01:19:18,159
like it. Stick sticker ones always
make me nervous. I'm like, what

1145
01:19:18,239 --> 01:19:23,680
if I change as a person and
regret doing this and right it inevitably?

1146
01:19:25,039 --> 01:19:28,720
Yeah, it's gonna tear. That's
makes me uncomfortable. I won't even put

1147
01:19:28,760 --> 01:19:31,279
a fandom sticker on my work laptop. I'm like, what if I change?

1148
01:19:31,319 --> 01:19:36,319
Who cares? This is ideal for
me? I love this. I

1149
01:19:36,399 --> 01:19:41,399
will keep watching this animation and listening
to you. I'm guessing all of you

1150
01:19:41,479 --> 01:19:44,479
guys are Camos. Every single one
of you guys are gonna get a Camo

1151
01:19:44,560 --> 01:19:48,640
one. One looks really nice.
Really, I do think the Starfield color

1152
01:19:48,720 --> 01:19:54,119
scheme is is super dope. Kudos
to whoever fucking put that together, and

1153
01:19:54,800 --> 01:19:58,600
you shouldn't design a hockey jersey with
those colors. Regrets to your sweet little

1154
01:19:58,680 --> 01:20:02,399
art boys girls and them's man,
Yep, that's good stuff, all right,

1155
01:20:02,600 --> 01:20:04,279
Yeah, go ahead, Beck,
what we're gonna say, No,

1156
01:20:04,359 --> 01:20:08,159
I'm just gonna say, like,
uh, I don't know. I don't

1157
01:20:08,159 --> 01:20:11,720
know who all these people are with
like their consoles in plain sight, I

1158
01:20:11,880 --> 01:20:15,000
hide them away. I think they're
stupid and ugly. They're all ugly.

1159
01:20:15,439 --> 01:20:19,520
I hate I like talking about us. Yeah, definitely away. Yeah.

1160
01:20:20,199 --> 01:20:24,239
You know you don't want clutter.
You want you want some kind of like

1161
01:20:24,399 --> 01:20:28,119
nice set up. So yeah,
but I like a minimalist design. I

1162
01:20:28,239 --> 01:20:30,880
think I like havin the shells that
show them off. Now at this point,

1163
01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:33,680
why not that's what I got.
I really want a gaudy one that

1164
01:20:33,880 --> 01:20:39,279
is like, I don't know,
slim gym branded and just mix the next

1165
01:20:39,319 --> 01:20:45,079
box. I want like a g
fuel one. I'm at a point now

1166
01:20:45,199 --> 01:20:48,279
where I don't want it to be
minimalist and cute. I want it to

1167
01:20:48,319 --> 01:20:53,560
be just a fucking eyesore. Yeah, appeal to me. I want to

1168
01:20:53,640 --> 01:20:59,000
be like, what's that that roadside
restaurant? Yo? Hard ease, give

1169
01:20:59,079 --> 01:21:01,880
me hard ease, or like just
a branded fast food thing. You want

1170
01:21:01,880 --> 01:21:09,560
a cracker barrel, cracker barrel,
gain cracker berry country let's go. Yeah,

1171
01:21:10,079 --> 01:21:15,199
now just like roast beef. Yeah, I have a whole outfit that

1172
01:21:15,239 --> 01:21:19,359
looks like that. Hell yeah,
yes, RB, send it to me

1173
01:21:19,399 --> 01:21:24,479
and here's your Lady Gaga outfit.
There you go. Uh. Starfield Opening

1174
01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:27,800
has leaked. Forty minutes of leakd
footage from the upcoming Starfield game have been

1175
01:21:27,800 --> 01:21:31,800
published online, showing early game playing
character customization options. Multiple YouTube uploads have

1176
01:21:31,880 --> 01:21:36,159
been removed due to copyright claims by
Zinnimax Media, but the footage continues to

1177
01:21:36,199 --> 01:21:41,399
circulate on social media. Of course, Uh, the game is coming out

1178
01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:45,560
here very soon. It will people
start seeing it. But basically leaks are

1179
01:21:45,600 --> 01:21:47,600
going to be out there. It
turns out what happened here is some people

1180
01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:51,600
just got it early from Walmart.
They just got it weeks early from Walmart,

1181
01:21:51,720 --> 01:21:58,239
and they walked out and happening.
It's happening. USA is going to

1182
01:21:58,319 --> 01:22:00,000
do their best to try to square
this. They're not gonna be able to

1183
01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:03,720
succeed, so it's gonna be out
there. The good news is it feels

1184
01:22:03,720 --> 01:22:06,720
a kind of game. It would
be difficult to spoil because people are going

1185
01:22:06,760 --> 01:22:11,079
to do their own adventures a lot
of times. So yeah, it's gonna

1186
01:22:11,119 --> 01:22:15,800
be difficult to actually ruin anyone's time
with that. Alan Wake two's really oh

1187
01:22:15,840 --> 01:22:16,279
yeah, go ahead. No no
no no no no no no no,

1188
01:22:16,520 --> 01:22:20,119
go go go. Allan Wake two's
release date has been pushed back to late

1189
01:22:20,239 --> 01:22:25,840
October. Late October, excuse me, Remany Entertainments postponed the release of Allan

1190
01:22:25,880 --> 01:22:29,840
Wake two by ten days to October
twenty seventh for PS five, Xbox Series

1191
01:22:30,039 --> 01:22:33,119
X and S and PC via the
Epic Game Store, which is Epics publishing

1192
01:22:33,159 --> 01:22:36,800
its White's there. The company explained
that the delay would give players more space

1193
01:22:36,880 --> 01:22:41,159
to enjoy other game launches in October. Like they just said the thing that

1194
01:22:41,279 --> 01:22:45,800
everyone would have realized. Anyhow,
October very busy, and games are trying

1195
01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:46,760
to get out of way out of
the way of each other. This game

1196
01:22:46,840 --> 01:22:51,199
was originally scheduled to launch on the
same day as Spider Man two and Super

1197
01:22:51,239 --> 01:22:55,039
Mario Brothers Wonder I think, or
at least around that that same time in

1198
01:22:55,119 --> 01:22:59,640
that general area. It would have
been real rough. Assassin's Cream Mirage I

1199
01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:01,880
think was also coming around that same
week. And it moved. It moved

1200
01:23:01,960 --> 01:23:04,680
earlier in October, so I'll'm like
two, was like, we'll move later

1201
01:23:04,760 --> 01:23:08,039
in October. As long as it's
before Halloween, will be fine. The

1202
01:23:08,079 --> 01:23:14,039
games now coming out October twenty seven
for Halloween perfect exactly maximize spookiness. Well

1203
01:23:14,159 --> 01:23:16,680
done. Yes, well this gives
you all. This gives you more time

1204
01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:19,800
to finish the new Alone in the
Dark game, which no one will stop

1205
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:24,680
talking about, right what? Yeah, yeah, Alone the Dark coming out

1206
01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:28,800
in October as well, that's not
the only game coming out, and so

1207
01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:31,199
October very busy, Sasson, Screamarage, Super Mario Brothers, Wonder, Marvel,

1208
01:23:31,239 --> 01:23:34,640
Spider Man two, Detective Peak Or
two, Returns, forts A Motorsport,

1209
01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:39,239
Hot Wheels, Unleashed two, Metal
Gear, Solid Master Collection, Alone

1210
01:23:39,279 --> 01:23:42,640
in the Dark, ghost Runner two. I feel like I forgot some but

1211
01:23:43,159 --> 01:23:45,359
Alone in the Dark just it feels
like it doesn't stand a chance. I

1212
01:23:45,359 --> 01:23:48,439
don't think anyone's gonna play that.
Yeah, I don't know. We'll see.

1213
01:23:49,680 --> 01:23:54,560
Oh and let's see in Bailey's l
Jan's B Day, Jan's B Day.

1214
01:23:54,600 --> 01:23:57,039
Excuse me, I didn't know who's
right in that. There we go

1215
01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:00,279
a potential Tech and eight release date, appears online. The release date for

1216
01:24:00,359 --> 01:24:05,319
tech and eight has apparently been leaked
online and is slated for January twenty six,

1217
01:24:05,399 --> 01:24:11,680
twenty twenty four. According to a
reliable leaker, uh, I don't

1218
01:24:11,720 --> 01:24:16,159
know, aggio, no MOMENTI lumina. That's my favorite spell in Harry Potter.

1219
01:24:17,680 --> 01:24:21,279
That's all what a that's a fucking
cool name. All right, all

1220
01:24:21,359 --> 01:24:29,159
right, let's all take a stab
at saying this real quick. It sounds

1221
01:24:29,199 --> 01:24:31,640
like Latin, all right, all
right, back of the dead Bailey,

1222
01:24:31,720 --> 01:24:40,000
you go first? No, no
a journament? That sounds better. Okay

1223
01:24:40,039 --> 01:24:49,279
we shouldn't. Yeah, alright,
definitely this fallow no you got a released.

1224
01:24:49,359 --> 01:24:56,560
Regarding the upcoming fighting game Tekens,
director Katsuhiro Harada has acknowledged minor information

1225
01:24:56,680 --> 01:24:59,880
leaks, but warned that the source
has been mostly identified. Last month,

1226
01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:03,760
images from the EVO event appeared to
confirm confirm a roster league giving insights into

1227
01:25:03,880 --> 01:25:08,880
characters and gameplay. Officially announced in
September twenty twenty two, Tech and eight

1228
01:25:08,920 --> 01:25:11,640
has planned for release on PS five, Xbox Series X and S, and

1229
01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:15,159
PCV esteem. We have not heard
of release date up to this point.

1230
01:25:15,159 --> 01:25:18,720
A lot of speculation would be early
next year. There is the Tech and

1231
01:25:18,800 --> 01:25:24,960
World Tour Finals on January twelfth through
through the fourteenth in New Orleans. So

1232
01:25:25,039 --> 01:25:28,760
that's coming up, and then Tech
and eight release right after that. Sounds

1233
01:25:28,840 --> 01:25:33,119
pretty plausible, right They finish up
Tech and Seven's championship, they talk a

1234
01:25:33,199 --> 01:25:38,000
lot about Tech and eight during that
event or around that time, and then

1235
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:42,159
they released Tech and eight later that
month. That would be very good.

1236
01:25:42,159 --> 01:25:45,159
I would like to see that,
but you know, who knows. Things

1237
01:25:45,239 --> 01:25:48,920
could change. It hasn't been confirmed. Metal Gear Solid Collection won't run at

1238
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:54,439
four k. Coonami has clarified the
target resolutions for the Metal Gear Solid Collection,

1239
01:25:55,159 --> 01:25:58,920
with most platforms aiming for ten ADP
at sixty frames per second, except

1240
01:25:58,920 --> 01:26:01,920
for the Nintendo Switch, which will
target ten ADP at thirty frames per second

1241
01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:05,880
in doct mode and seven twenty P
at thirty frames per second in handheld mode.

1242
01:26:06,159 --> 01:26:09,960
The collections, set to be released
on October twenty fourth, includes the

1243
01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:13,920
first three middle Gear Solid games,
the original MSX two versions, and a

1244
01:26:13,960 --> 01:26:17,520
nes excuse me in ans games.
Additional content like digital graphic novels and strategy

1245
01:26:17,520 --> 01:26:23,479
guides will be included as well.
I think it's a little a little annoying

1246
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:26,880
that that the games aren't being up
rest to four K, but also at

1247
01:26:26,920 --> 01:26:30,319
the same time, none of these
games were originally done even at like HD

1248
01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:33,319
levels for most of them, so
getting them at ten ADP is it's gonna

1249
01:26:33,319 --> 01:26:36,199
be fine, it's gonna look fine. Uh, it does feel like the

1250
01:26:36,279 --> 01:26:40,560
switch should be able to run like
Middle Gear Solid one, it's sixty frames

1251
01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:46,800
per second. That's that seems wild
and just maybe someone's lazy. Maybe someone

1252
01:26:46,800 --> 01:26:50,760
doesn't know how to do it.
Yeah, maybe they don't know how to

1253
01:26:50,800 --> 01:26:54,000
go into the presets, you know, yeah, because that's what it's like,

1254
01:26:54,199 --> 01:26:56,920
right, Yeah, they didn't.
They just didn't hit hit the button

1255
01:26:57,079 --> 01:27:01,079
in the in retro arch to get
the ten A E sixty on the easy

1256
01:27:01,960 --> 01:27:06,079
Gods, come on the switch,
Yeah, come on, flip the switch

1257
01:27:06,119 --> 01:27:11,439
on the switch. Flip the switch
switch. That is like that. It's

1258
01:27:11,439 --> 01:27:15,199
definitely the case here though. These
are just straight up ports. Don't expect

1259
01:27:15,239 --> 01:27:18,720
anything more like for Metal Gear Solid, don't expect widescreen four K support of

1260
01:27:18,760 --> 01:27:23,399
any kinds. It's going to be
that original game just right in there.

1261
01:27:23,439 --> 01:27:27,159
But that's that's fine. At least
they're like at least these games are back

1262
01:27:27,199 --> 01:27:30,039
available for sale for years now,
they have not been, so this is

1263
01:27:30,119 --> 01:27:32,920
better than nothing, which was the
alternative. Here, give me that sweet

1264
01:27:32,920 --> 01:27:38,119
four by three. Baby. Yeah, I'm I'm I'm maybe a better ratio.

1265
01:27:38,399 --> 01:27:41,960
Actually four by three and sixteen nine
I might be going back. I'm

1266
01:27:41,960 --> 01:27:45,239
sorry, I'm sorrying, What did
you just say? Four by three?

1267
01:27:45,600 --> 01:27:46,880
I love four by three? Great? Yeah, four by three in like

1268
01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:53,199
a nostalgic like, oh no,
you do a fun like the throwback,

1269
01:27:53,880 --> 01:27:57,720
because I think it's we're seeing too
much, you know. I agree,

1270
01:27:58,800 --> 01:28:02,520
because like I don't want like vertical
sixteen by nine and of course horizontal sixteen

1271
01:28:02,560 --> 01:28:05,159
by nine. I think for four
by three is like a good middle ground

1272
01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:11,960
where it's like it is both vertically
pleasing and horizontally pleasing. I aim to

1273
01:28:12,039 --> 01:28:15,840
be vertically pleasing. I disagree.
I disagree in every sense of the words.

1274
01:28:16,000 --> 01:28:19,920
On all sellar aspect ratio. You're
allowed to feel wrong about it.

1275
01:28:20,039 --> 01:28:23,760
Yes, you don't have to stop
at sixteen by nine, go go go

1276
01:28:23,880 --> 01:28:27,239
thirty two by nine, go super
ultra back. No, I don't need

1277
01:28:27,319 --> 01:28:31,479
it to be like panoramic. I'm
just saying sixteen by nine seems to work

1278
01:28:31,560 --> 01:28:35,680
well with the position of our horizontal
eyes right, like they're laid out that

1279
01:28:35,800 --> 01:28:39,319
way. It makes sense. Yeah, again, I think I see too

1280
01:28:39,439 --> 01:28:44,000
much. You know, I'm all
about tunnels. Yeah, I can't.

1281
01:28:44,159 --> 01:28:47,279
I stopped being focused as soon as
the world went wide screen. It's the

1282
01:28:47,399 --> 01:28:50,720
worst. I mean, you watch
those old shows on wide screen and they

1283
01:28:50,840 --> 01:28:56,000
just have the edges in there where
you can see the equipment and stuff.

1284
01:28:56,319 --> 01:28:59,640
That's how I feel when I don't
spend enough time with four by three things.

1285
01:28:59,720 --> 01:29:01,760
I'm I need more, I need
more stuff. That's a little squarer

1286
01:29:02,119 --> 01:29:08,039
for me. Yeah, you were
all insane people with microphones. I don't

1287
01:29:08,119 --> 01:29:15,319
understand the phone away from me.
You've been watching movies in the theater.

1288
01:29:15,560 --> 01:29:18,720
Your entire lives in sixteen by nine, their entire lives movies. They're not

1289
01:29:18,800 --> 01:29:24,479
sixteen by nine. They're like or
they're anamorphics, so they're even even condensed

1290
01:29:24,520 --> 01:29:26,800
more. What do you mean?
Yeah, yeah, they're wider, Yes,

1291
01:29:26,880 --> 01:29:30,520
exactly. The most are water.
How much more pleasing things that were

1292
01:29:30,640 --> 01:29:34,800
almost a square would be, you
know posts almost square? Oh? Such,

1293
01:29:34,880 --> 01:29:39,840
the such the right shape for stuff. Yeah, it's good. Yeah,

1294
01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:42,560
it's the shape stuff pleaser. Think
about it. You know, you're

1295
01:29:42,640 --> 01:29:46,359
watching a movie or a video on
your phone, but you can continue scrolling

1296
01:29:46,399 --> 01:29:54,760
and doing other stuff. This reminds
me of the fucking argument with the smoothing

1297
01:29:55,039 --> 01:30:00,920
n HDTVs at all. This is
the magic Quibby, and this is why

1298
01:30:00,960 --> 01:30:03,479
we got to bring Quibby back,
because you could turn that horizontal or vertical

1299
01:30:03,520 --> 01:30:09,880
and it worked in either aspect ration
fail. I hear the reason of things

1300
01:30:09,920 --> 01:30:15,439
that were barely alive. Remember h
Q right the trip. Did you guys

1301
01:30:15,479 --> 01:30:17,760
watch the documentary? Someone made a
documentary about it. It was really good.

1302
01:30:17,880 --> 01:30:20,199
Yeah, it was good. Yeah, I've seen it. Yeah,

1303
01:30:20,960 --> 01:30:24,439
talked about it in the film cast. Shouts out to the film cast.

1304
01:30:25,079 --> 01:30:30,479
That's neat. I'd like to watch
that one day. Where is it available?

1305
01:30:30,520 --> 01:30:34,720
Do we know I have? It's
on quibble Yeah, No, I

1306
01:30:34,800 --> 01:30:39,479
think it's on who. I don't
know. I still Hulu. I haven't

1307
01:30:39,479 --> 01:30:45,279
canceled it. Yeah, that's right, that's what they call Hulu. That's

1308
01:30:45,319 --> 01:30:48,920
awesome, Bailey. Microsoft has ended
Connect production, which they were somehow still

1309
01:30:48,960 --> 01:30:55,199
making. Microsoft has announced the discontinuation
of its Connect hardware production, including the

1310
01:30:55,319 --> 01:31:00,520
latest iteration Azure Connect, released in
twenty nineteen for enterprise software and AI use.

1311
01:31:00,840 --> 01:31:05,680
The Azure Connect featured advanced capabilities beyond
the Xbox versions. Microsoft will now

1312
01:31:05,800 --> 01:31:11,319
provide the technology to third party partners
to create their own alternatives. Although Connect

1313
01:31:11,439 --> 01:31:15,079
was known for gaming purph roles on
Xbox, it found diverse uses in fields

1314
01:31:15,119 --> 01:31:18,399
like academia and robotics, as Your
Connect devices will be sold until the end

1315
01:31:18,439 --> 01:31:23,840
of October and the companies that own
one can still access its development software after

1316
01:31:23,960 --> 01:31:28,319
that point. Despite a mixed reception
and gaming Connect, Connect technology has been

1317
01:31:28,399 --> 01:31:32,840
integrated into products like the UK Skyglass
TVs and it's still like medical medical equipment

1318
01:31:32,880 --> 01:31:35,159
and all kinds of other things like
that. Connect actually popped up in a

1319
01:31:35,199 --> 01:31:40,840
lot of weird places like ghost out
of the museums, like yeah, like

1320
01:31:41,039 --> 01:31:45,800
interactive dance floors, things like that. You know, it showed up in

1321
01:31:45,880 --> 01:31:50,880
every place except your living room,
right exactly. I always liked the idea

1322
01:31:50,920 --> 01:31:55,439
of like Connect getting that second life, but then it's I don't know,

1323
01:31:55,479 --> 01:32:01,920
I never really moved second I think
only the second life. Now through Connect,

1324
01:32:01,920 --> 01:32:08,279
you gotta have a connect that More
details arise on Immortals, Phoenix Risings

1325
01:32:08,319 --> 01:32:12,960
Canceled Sequel. More details have emerged. Codenamed Oxygen, The project was going

1326
01:32:13,039 --> 01:32:16,720
to explore a fictionalized version of the
Polynesian archipelago, something we talked about a

1327
01:32:16,800 --> 01:32:21,399
while ago on Game mess Mornings,
including locations such as New Zealand, Tahiti,

1328
01:32:21,520 --> 01:32:26,399
Easter Island, and Hawaii. The
protagonist would have had the ability to

1329
01:32:26,479 --> 01:32:30,199
gain powers from Polynesian gods and shape
shift. Oh, that's cool. Would

1330
01:32:30,239 --> 01:32:32,920
have been very cool. A distinct
feature feature of Oxygen was to avoid quest

1331
01:32:33,000 --> 01:32:38,479
markers, leading players to find their
way by tracking animals or studying stars,

1332
01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:44,479
which that sounds awesome and Ubisoft Quebec
was responsible for the original game canceled the

1333
01:32:44,520 --> 01:32:48,319
sequel. Ubisoft canceled the sequel earlier
this month, citing challenges in establishing the

1334
01:32:48,399 --> 01:32:53,720
IP. The cancelation lines with Ubisoft
shift in focus to its biggest ips in

1335
01:32:53,800 --> 01:32:59,159
life services after weaker holiday sales.
This is a studio that is going to

1336
01:32:59,279 --> 01:33:03,520
be one hundred percent on the Assassins
screen machine once again, and streaming now

1337
01:33:03,640 --> 01:33:08,920
apparently yes, and streaming call duty
games. Yet, if any, if

1338
01:33:08,960 --> 01:33:12,680
any studio can afford to split their
focus, it's the ones that reliably put

1339
01:33:12,760 --> 01:33:19,640
games out on time every time.
This is uh yeah, I liked.

1340
01:33:19,840 --> 01:33:23,880
I thought that first game was okay
with a lot of problems, and it

1341
01:33:24,039 --> 01:33:27,880
was, but they easily could have
taken that foundation. It turned into something

1342
01:33:28,039 --> 01:33:30,399
very cool. I think with this
and everything seemed to be lining up all

1343
01:33:30,439 --> 01:33:34,359
these really good ideas here. But
yeah, they you justlf afraid of these

1344
01:33:34,439 --> 01:33:41,920
kinds of games. Now they are
making eleven twelve Assassin's Creed games. That's

1345
01:33:41,960 --> 01:33:45,319
what the excuse me? Eleven Assassin's
Creed projects. Many of those are games.

1346
01:33:45,680 --> 01:33:48,119
Some of them are going to be
like anime. I guess I don't

1347
01:33:48,159 --> 01:33:53,359
know. It's such it's such a
bummer because you know, we don't see

1348
01:33:53,399 --> 01:33:59,560
that setting in a lot of video
games, if at all, especially Scout.

1349
01:33:59,640 --> 01:34:03,279
I know you're upset about no polynes
poly uh representation as well, but

1350
01:34:03,399 --> 01:34:06,680
hey, Scout doesn't want Assassin's Creed
fifty eight. Like, come on,

1351
01:34:08,279 --> 01:34:12,359
how many okay, ballpark many times
can we dive off those roofs? How

1352
01:34:12,439 --> 01:34:15,439
many? How many Assassins Creed games
do you think there are? Just like

1353
01:34:15,560 --> 01:34:23,600
ballpark games? I think there's twenty
came out. Yeah, I would say

1354
01:34:23,640 --> 01:34:27,520
probably like fifteen. Just I think
we think we counted this. Actually,

1355
01:34:27,960 --> 01:34:30,239
if you're doing like them, if
you're doing the main ones, don't don't

1356
01:34:30,239 --> 01:34:34,359
count. I'm counting everything. I'm
counting like there's like a mobile one,

1357
01:34:34,560 --> 01:34:40,840
right, like a PSP one probably
right there. There's twelve main games,

1358
01:34:41,079 --> 01:34:46,239
seventeen spinoff games, several short films, and various transpia projects according to Google,

1359
01:34:47,199 --> 01:34:50,680
I mean according to the random wiki. Sorry, plugging, plugging the

1360
01:34:50,720 --> 01:34:57,000
plug. That is an ip that
I am like constantly, uh staggered at

1361
01:34:57,720 --> 01:35:01,720
its popularity, Like you know,
if like the movie was a was dead

1362
01:35:01,760 --> 01:35:06,640
on arrival, like what other thing
would give you? I mean, obviously,

1363
01:35:06,760 --> 01:35:10,439
I mean apparently, look, there's
a reason they make the decision.

1364
01:35:10,479 --> 01:35:14,479
It obviously sells well enough to invest
that kind of money. But like I'm

1365
01:35:15,439 --> 01:35:18,439
I'm speechless as to why it continues
to be a thing. I'm also so

1366
01:35:19,039 --> 01:35:24,000
out of touch with what is currently
happening in Assassin's Creed because like the last

1367
01:35:24,039 --> 01:35:29,199
time I was paying attention, Kristen
Bell was still involved and I don't think

1368
01:35:29,279 --> 01:35:38,199
she's popped, not really, you
know, like other significant roles. Yes,

1369
01:35:38,399 --> 01:35:41,359
yeah, does the animal still matter? Is that still a thing we

1370
01:35:41,479 --> 01:35:44,439
worry about? Yeah, it's like
takes different forms now, I think,

1371
01:35:44,840 --> 01:35:48,119
yeah, wait, what happened in
Desmond? I still remember that first game

1372
01:35:48,159 --> 01:35:53,279
where you like find out what's going
on and just like I remember audibly slapping

1373
01:35:53,359 --> 01:35:57,399
my forehead so loud. Yeah,
I mean it's a dumb premise, but

1374
01:35:57,880 --> 01:36:00,720
at that point it's fine. Look
if people want like to play it and

1375
01:36:00,760 --> 01:36:03,399
they continue doing it, fine.
I think if you feel good that like

1376
01:36:04,119 --> 01:36:13,880
the ridiculous like directive of like a
publisher developer to remain infinitely profitable forever and

1377
01:36:13,960 --> 01:36:18,199
ever forces all this ship to become
watered down to the same goddamn thing over

1378
01:36:18,239 --> 01:36:20,960
and over again. If you're if
that's what you get excited about and you're

1379
01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:25,199
happy about that, I don't know
what to tell you. You Also,

1380
01:36:25,640 --> 01:36:30,399
you're gonna love Drive to your life. You also just described Madden FIFA Slash

1381
01:36:30,439 --> 01:36:34,000
Football Club every annual release. Yeah, but I think sports games are in

1382
01:36:34,079 --> 01:36:38,479
a different category. Like I realized
I just said the whole thing. But

1383
01:36:38,600 --> 01:36:42,560
like sports are different. They're they're
they just are. There's different players that

1384
01:36:42,680 --> 01:36:45,640
come in. There's you know,
yeah, Assassins Creed. It's a different

1385
01:36:45,680 --> 01:36:54,239
player that comes in. I think
they're in Assassin's Creed. Yeah. I

1386
01:36:54,279 --> 01:36:57,840
mean, look like you're talking to
someone who actively hates and the NHL series,

1387
01:36:57,880 --> 01:37:01,439
So like I'm not happy about that, you know, Uh yeah,

1388
01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:06,239
Assassin's Creed. I know it's still
very popular. They still sell a lot.

1389
01:37:06,319 --> 01:37:10,680
They're gonna keep making them. But
I'm I'm definitely getting to a point

1390
01:37:10,760 --> 01:37:15,560
where maybe I might check out Mirage, but I'm not like like craving it.

1391
01:37:15,720 --> 01:37:17,239
And then what you're gonna tell me, there's gonna be like ten more

1392
01:37:17,680 --> 01:37:21,600
of these games of different stripes,
like in the next ten years. That's

1393
01:37:21,640 --> 01:37:26,399
gonna wear it out pretty quickly,
I think. So, yeah, yeah,

1394
01:37:27,079 --> 01:37:28,920
all right, that does it for
the news, Jen, I'm handing

1395
01:37:28,960 --> 01:37:31,159
the show back over to you.
Well, I'm gonna look at it and

1396
01:37:32,000 --> 01:37:36,640
still decide and wonder where Kristen Bell
has been for the last ten plus years.

1397
01:37:38,199 --> 01:37:41,159
And then we're gonna go take a
quick breaking break, be back with

1398
01:37:41,319 --> 01:37:53,199
some emails. I can't stop thinking
about emails and saying, God, go

1399
01:37:53,399 --> 01:37:58,359
to the email section. We did
it email timing. Wow, I know

1400
01:37:58,640 --> 01:38:01,800
right, I just had a hank
in an itch to read some emails from

1401
01:38:01,840 --> 01:38:05,640
you, the fine folks at home
BombCast at giant bomb dot com is email

1402
01:38:05,640 --> 01:38:11,880
address to send those electronic mails too. You can send a whole slew of

1403
01:38:12,039 --> 01:38:15,880
things, a wide variety of topics. I'll pick them, I'll answer them,

1404
01:38:15,000 --> 01:38:18,119
will answer them. I'll if you
write a nice email about someone on

1405
01:38:18,199 --> 01:38:20,760
the staff, nine times out of
ten, I'll a forward it to that

1406
01:38:20,840 --> 01:38:24,880
person. So if you want to
give a specific special shout out to someone,

1407
01:38:25,600 --> 01:38:28,119
I'll go do it. I'll do
it. Also, Hey, have

1408
01:38:28,319 --> 01:38:32,399
out at the shout outs up to
fifty not just fifty. I see what

1409
01:38:32,520 --> 01:38:39,840
you're doing, you jerks. God, Okay, here's here's a wild idea.

1410
01:38:40,000 --> 01:38:43,319
Here's a wild idea, because you
know I'm full of them, million

1411
01:38:43,359 --> 01:38:46,119
dollar idea. Here at the PAXs
panel, We're going to pass around a

1412
01:38:46,159 --> 01:38:49,880
clipbird that will be a Google doc
and that's how we'll read the shout outs.

1413
01:38:49,920 --> 01:38:53,399
All right, We'll just have a
giant bomb clibbered, pass it around

1414
01:38:53,439 --> 01:38:57,800
and all that jazz beautiful. I
love it, all right, first email

1415
01:38:59,039 --> 01:39:01,800
come just starts. I'm telling you, dude, we could sell a nice

1416
01:39:01,800 --> 01:39:05,880
clipberd with like a GB logo on
it, a clear clipbord. And then

1417
01:39:06,039 --> 01:39:14,479
are you saying clipboard? Yeah,
clip clipberd, Bailey. We don't need

1418
01:39:14,520 --> 01:39:16,720
to relitigate this, all right?
Do you say cupboard when you go to

1419
01:39:16,840 --> 01:39:20,279
the cup of board, I don't
go to the cupboard. Jeff on a

1420
01:39:20,359 --> 01:39:29,359
homes got a pile of cups in
your corner. Hell yeah, let's go.

1421
01:39:30,840 --> 01:39:34,960
I mean, we don't have time
for me to re explain the logic.

1422
01:39:35,039 --> 01:39:41,640
It's just like we think about think
about it. Why don't we say

1423
01:39:41,920 --> 01:39:45,960
Aristotle like Chipotle? You know,
just let that ruminate for a bit.

1424
01:39:45,159 --> 01:39:48,159
Why don't we say all stuff like
other stuff? I don't know exactly.

1425
01:39:48,279 --> 01:39:53,359
I say cup ons all the time
and people look at me weird. Jeff

1426
01:39:53,359 --> 01:39:57,479
from Quebec City writes in Bombers in
your Hearts, When do you feel like

1427
01:39:57,560 --> 01:40:00,399
autumn starts? For me? It's
the first week into October because the best

1428
01:40:00,479 --> 01:40:04,600
timing to go road tripping and see
all the colors here in Quebec before everything

1429
01:40:04,680 --> 01:40:10,000
falls and we collectively freeze. Shout
out to shout outs. Jeff from Quebec

1430
01:40:10,079 --> 01:40:15,720
City, When does autumn start?
Not soon enough? Am I Jesus Christ?

1431
01:40:16,359 --> 01:40:23,239
Then it's uh, look, the
first week of October's basically when it

1432
01:40:23,319 --> 01:40:27,279
does start. Uh man, that's
our season's work. It's like, well,

1433
01:40:27,399 --> 01:40:32,000
September twenty two, it's like the
last thing set. Yeah, you're

1434
01:40:32,000 --> 01:40:36,199
basically so yes. If you're talking
about like when do people shift mentally that

1435
01:40:36,279 --> 01:40:40,359
first week Octobers when it happens.
Yes, I had a big fight with

1436
01:40:40,600 --> 01:40:45,439
one Vincent James Caravella. Oh did
you lose the fight because he's got big

1437
01:40:45,520 --> 01:40:48,880
hands. Yeah, well it was
a it was a van measuring contest.

1438
01:40:48,960 --> 01:40:57,159
No, he fucking he used to
think that like summer was like way,

1439
01:40:57,399 --> 01:41:00,520
oh no, it was summer or
winter. And he was like a month

1440
01:41:00,640 --> 01:41:05,199
off, like literally thirty days off
to when it started. And he just

1441
01:41:05,319 --> 01:41:09,640
like, wouldn't he wouldn't like,
Okay, we want to admit defeat,

1442
01:41:09,920 --> 01:41:12,640
you know, And what way was
he off? Was he saying like he

1443
01:41:12,760 --> 01:41:16,359
said it started a month earlier than
season? Actually did he said? Okay,

1444
01:41:16,479 --> 01:41:19,000
yeah, you know it was winter. You're right because he said Thanksgiving

1445
01:41:19,159 --> 01:41:21,600
was winter. I was like,
no, dude, you could not be

1446
01:41:21,720 --> 01:41:26,159
more wrong. That is very much
autumn. It's very much autumn. In

1447
01:41:26,239 --> 01:41:30,199
fact, winter is like a couple
days before fucking winter. Christmas, Christmas,

1448
01:41:30,279 --> 01:41:33,439
Christmas December twenty first, Yeah,
that's when it starts. That's how

1449
01:41:33,479 --> 01:41:39,920
it works, to be like the
guy that well that I'm saying, that's

1450
01:41:39,960 --> 01:41:43,279
when, Chris, that's why Christmas
is when it's when it when it happens

1451
01:41:43,479 --> 01:41:46,439
December twenty fifth. Because dumbasses in
the past were like, hey, the

1452
01:41:46,520 --> 01:41:49,279
sun keeps going down, We're all
gonna fucking die. And then it's like,

1453
01:41:49,399 --> 01:41:51,439
why is it not going high in
the sky anymore? Is it just

1454
01:41:51,520 --> 01:41:55,880
never the Sun's gonna go away forever? And then the sun like starts going

1455
01:41:55,920 --> 01:41:58,439
back up, and they're like,
okay, maybe it's gonna keep going up

1456
01:41:58,439 --> 01:42:00,880
and it goes back all right,
are never throwing apart? Let's have Christmas?

1457
01:42:00,039 --> 01:42:08,720
And so it's an approximation of what
happened a well established Pigan celebration of

1458
01:42:08,800 --> 01:42:15,560
the winter sol sysm appropriated by another
religion. Sure, yeah, yeahs is

1459
01:42:15,640 --> 01:42:18,039
that the world was kind of end
and now we got Christmas going exactly and

1460
01:42:18,279 --> 01:42:21,520
now I get presents on December twenty
five. Rules. Yeah, I mean

1461
01:42:21,600 --> 01:42:26,760
like you could just call you know, people call things the unofficial start of

1462
01:42:26,880 --> 01:42:30,279
summer, right, which is like, uh, you know, Labor Day,

1463
01:42:30,399 --> 01:42:33,800
right or Memorial Memorial Day? Sorry? Uh so like I understand that,

1464
01:42:34,640 --> 01:42:38,960
but I mean, look, and
it has snowed in November. I'm

1465
01:42:39,079 --> 01:42:43,720
sure, I don't know. I
just that's uh, there's certain things we

1466
01:42:43,800 --> 01:42:45,680
have rules about ladies and gentlemen.
The seasons are one of them. You

1467
01:42:45,840 --> 01:42:51,399
kind of get people will point out
the meteorological seasons and how those are different

1468
01:42:51,520 --> 01:42:56,199
than when those like the stars in
the moon and stuff aligns. It's like,

1469
01:42:56,560 --> 01:43:00,239
can season right that. My heart's
still in the school calendar, you

1470
01:43:00,319 --> 01:43:03,520
know, when the kids are in
class, it's it's autumn. When they're

1471
01:43:03,600 --> 01:43:08,399
on winter break, it's winter,
okay, But my kids starts school tomorrow.

1472
01:43:09,439 --> 01:43:14,520
Shit, it's autumn for you tomorrow. No it's not. She's like,

1473
01:43:15,640 --> 01:43:21,199
now, were there, and that's
like you're all you're not going to

1474
01:43:21,279 --> 01:43:24,880
burn to death, Like these kids
are gonna be boiling in that classroom.

1475
01:43:25,000 --> 01:43:29,239
We don't have seasons here. It
is unreliable. I had a hurricane in

1476
01:43:29,279 --> 01:43:32,800
an earthquake two days ago at the
same time. What was the earthquake?

1477
01:43:32,920 --> 01:43:36,279
When you were becoming something fierce?
If guess what's happening to you, what

1478
01:43:36,479 --> 01:43:43,359
was the earthquake? Shook? Because
I know what an earthquake is. I

1479
01:43:43,439 --> 01:43:47,439
mean, what was the what is
the Richter sale? I was I was

1480
01:43:47,600 --> 01:43:50,960
actively streaming when it was happening.
I was playing Slay the Spire. I

1481
01:43:51,000 --> 01:43:54,279
was like, oh, we're wiggling, and then we were back. So

1482
01:43:54,479 --> 01:43:56,680
I don't know. I didn't look
up the number. I was busy slaying

1483
01:43:56,720 --> 01:44:00,119
the spire. It was what was
important. Okay, all right, you

1484
01:44:00,199 --> 01:44:03,520
know it was bad. I did
feel it. It was. It freaked

1485
01:44:03,560 --> 01:44:08,119
my cats out, Oh no,
but I held it together. On stream.

1486
01:44:08,159 --> 01:44:13,279
I was like, whoa, back
to the you know, last time

1487
01:44:13,279 --> 01:44:16,000
we had an earthquake up here.
It happened immediately after I snapped my fingers,

1488
01:44:16,079 --> 01:44:19,359
and that was fun. It was
during a podcast. Yeah, yeah,

1489
01:44:19,479 --> 01:44:25,199
with high Yeah. Have you ever
snapped your fingers before that moment?

1490
01:44:25,520 --> 01:44:30,359
No? Never have you? Since? No, too much power. I

1491
01:44:30,520 --> 01:44:34,680
can't go to slam poetry readings anymore. It's terrible. My stomach dropped when

1492
01:44:34,720 --> 01:44:39,720
that happened because I was like,
oh no, My mind went to the

1493
01:44:39,760 --> 01:44:42,600
worst place, of course, but
also was like, oh god, people

1494
01:44:42,640 --> 01:44:45,760
are gonna rewatch this and be like
this was a thing. You know,

1495
01:44:45,920 --> 01:44:48,920
I don't know, but thankfully for
a while. It's a little baby earthquake,

1496
01:44:49,039 --> 01:44:51,479
right, it's a little baby earthquake. Wasn't much. It's fine,

1497
01:44:51,640 --> 01:44:59,479
It's all right. Next email was
about a little Starfield they write in,

1498
01:45:00,159 --> 01:45:02,840
uh, Robbie writes him. In
recent weeks, lots of outlets have been

1499
01:45:02,960 --> 01:45:08,520
hyping Starfield as if it's guaranteed to
be a great game that has me wondering

1500
01:45:08,960 --> 01:45:13,720
why. Bethesda's last greatest game was
Skyrim, and even that was a buggy

1501
01:45:13,760 --> 01:45:16,399
mess. Followed seventy six was a
travesty of a game. Fallow four was

1502
01:45:16,520 --> 01:45:21,520
derivative, bloated and unfocused sequel,
full of bugs with a little we've been

1503
01:45:23,159 --> 01:45:29,399
as he with a little we've been
shown of Starfield. It looks very much

1504
01:45:29,520 --> 01:45:34,920
like Fallout four in space and frankly
that fills me with a new and thank

1505
01:45:34,960 --> 01:45:41,920
you Bailey. It's French Trey magnifique. Uh. You guys seem really high

1506
01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:45,359
on Field's promises about what it could
be. Is there something you've been you've

1507
01:45:45,439 --> 01:45:48,600
seen that goes beyond what has been
released? Or is it just blind hope

1508
01:45:48,600 --> 01:45:53,520
it'll be good? Help me understand
I like those games. Fallow four is

1509
01:45:53,520 --> 01:45:56,880
a really good game. Uh well, fat seventy six obviously had problems,

1510
01:45:56,920 --> 01:46:00,199
but Skyrim even that was a buggy
mess. Yeah, like yeah, but

1511
01:46:00,319 --> 01:46:03,920
bugs are fun. Bugs are fun. They're not as long as they're not

1512
01:46:03,960 --> 01:46:09,079
like we're causing you loose saved data
or causing the progression issues, which they

1513
01:46:09,119 --> 01:46:12,600
never did for me in Skyrim.
Bugs are fun. They get the game

1514
01:46:12,680 --> 01:46:15,680
character and I enjoy it, and
that's just how I feel. So if

1515
01:46:15,000 --> 01:46:18,319
if that's like if the promise of
Starfield is there'll be a lot of that

1516
01:46:18,439 --> 01:46:23,039
stuff and it's in space, and
like they're doing like the NASA kind of

1517
01:46:23,119 --> 01:46:26,119
sci fi that we don't get a
lot of. Yeah, that sounds that

1518
01:46:26,199 --> 01:46:30,359
sounds great to me. To me, the bugginess is part of Bethesda's charm,

1519
01:46:30,520 --> 01:46:34,359
like the bugs are a feature,
like it's it's it's sort of who

1520
01:46:34,439 --> 01:46:39,680
will I have an easy sideswipe at
anytime a game that's not beths does Bucky

1521
01:46:39,720 --> 01:46:44,720
watched the new Honest game trailer for
baalds Gate. But yeah, I'm I'm

1522
01:46:44,800 --> 01:46:47,119
expecting it to be buggy and I'm
looking forward to it regardless. I think

1523
01:46:47,159 --> 01:46:50,720
we're allowed to hold both of these
thoughts one in each hand. Yeah that

1524
01:46:51,039 --> 01:46:54,560
said, you know, Skyrim is
like, what one of the biggest selling

1525
01:46:54,600 --> 01:46:59,079
games of all time. It's available
on virtually everything, So like something coming

1526
01:46:59,119 --> 01:47:04,880
out of that studio, we'll probably
be better than Okay, probably, Yeah,

1527
01:47:05,119 --> 01:47:09,279
I mean, yeah, totally.
I think I've like Falling Out three

1528
01:47:09,399 --> 01:47:13,880
better than four thinking back on it, most people did, Yeah, should

1529
01:47:13,920 --> 01:47:17,479
I go play New Vegas at some
point? Yeah, Oh I love Vegas.

1530
01:47:17,960 --> 01:47:21,720
Yeah, I've I've I played it
again recently. I've for for the

1531
01:47:21,840 --> 01:47:26,039
trailer. It is so it is. I consider it to be one of

1532
01:47:26,119 --> 01:47:30,680
my top games. It is a
buggy mess and it's so funky. Are

1533
01:47:30,680 --> 01:47:35,680
you playing and writing such mediocre combat? Do you recommend we can't talk about

1534
01:47:35,720 --> 01:47:39,640
that? Back lar? Why are
you trying to try to blow? Why

1535
01:47:39,640 --> 01:47:44,399
I try to blow the bow?
You could? All right? Sorry,

1536
01:47:45,720 --> 01:47:48,479
put me in put me in jail. I didn't mean to put you in

1537
01:47:48,560 --> 01:47:53,880
jail early before your for your trip. Yeah, it'll be an early vacation.

1538
01:47:55,119 --> 01:47:58,039
People get excited about things before they
come out. People get anxious about

1539
01:47:58,039 --> 01:48:00,920
things before they come out. It's
I mean, everyone deep down knows you

1540
01:48:01,000 --> 01:48:04,640
gotta play it first, or you
really not like getting excited about something?

1541
01:48:04,760 --> 01:48:09,159
Isn't some dangerous thing? What's the
worst thing that happens? You get disappointed

1542
01:48:09,560 --> 01:48:14,800
except with the Kingdom hearts? Well, yes, right, king hearts like

1543
01:48:14,880 --> 01:48:17,319
yeah, that's a whole, that's
a sickness upon itself. Yeah. Oh

1544
01:48:17,439 --> 01:48:20,720
man, they played an idium remix
of Simple and Clean at this wedding.

1545
01:48:20,920 --> 01:48:25,800
You boy almost lost ship. Oh
my god, what good for you?

1546
01:48:26,840 --> 01:48:30,439
It's amazing did it include the intro
We're sore? Is like I have been

1547
01:48:30,560 --> 01:48:34,159
having this strange dream lately. No, but it should have, you know,

1548
01:48:34,239 --> 01:48:41,119
at the weddings. Off the weddings
off, I know it. Redo

1549
01:48:41,239 --> 01:48:45,119
this wedding. Make everyone fly back
in all right. Next email is about

1550
01:48:45,800 --> 01:48:51,000
Gimmick. I'm flashing a helpful image
on the screen right now. This comes

1551
01:48:51,359 --> 01:48:57,079
from Ken, So Marvel finally went
all in with the cool kids. They

1552
01:48:57,199 --> 01:49:00,239
named their new character Gimmick. For
those not looking at a picture, her

1553
01:49:00,279 --> 01:49:04,239
outfit looks like she takes fashion tips
from Gambit parenthesis. She gets a new

1554
01:49:04,279 --> 01:49:08,720
costume later spoilers. She doesn't seem
like a powerful mutant, but she does

1555
01:49:08,800 --> 01:49:14,399
have good leadership skills. We're looking
at the Zoomer cyclops. Sincerely, Ken.

1556
01:49:15,840 --> 01:49:19,000
Yeah it looks cool. Yeah,
that's cool. I'm into it all

1557
01:49:19,079 --> 01:49:25,159
right. Well, I like the
children of the Adam style, that logo

1558
01:49:25,319 --> 01:49:27,840
and then the kind of the art
style that go for for those kinds of

1559
01:49:27,880 --> 01:49:30,720
comics. Always like that. Yo, if you have been out of touch

1560
01:49:30,800 --> 01:49:32,520
with the X Men, you should
read the current run of X Men.

1561
01:49:32,600 --> 01:49:36,600
It's pretty hot and not like hot
and like it's like wait real quick,

1562
01:49:36,640 --> 01:49:41,560
I'm sorry someone just rushed the stage
at a game at Games Come Opening Night

1563
01:49:41,640 --> 01:49:48,800
Live, and Jeff Keeley looks fucking
pissed on. He just is fuming.

1564
01:49:49,079 --> 01:49:54,279
I'll see if I can get a
screen shot of his face. Said,

1565
01:49:54,439 --> 01:49:59,359
why does this keep happening? He
said the same kid. I hope so

1566
01:49:59,479 --> 01:50:00,560
I don't. I actually didn't see
the run on stage. I just saw

1567
01:50:00,600 --> 01:50:03,359
the reaction to it. People are
saying it in chat. Oh man,

1568
01:50:03,600 --> 01:50:10,520
god, I hope Keiley's okay,
like you are so hard to put on

1569
01:50:10,600 --> 01:50:14,000
a good showever, rush is the
stage is okay after Keiley's done with them.

1570
01:50:14,680 --> 01:50:18,000
No, he's going to destroy that
kid. Oh yeah, Oh my

1571
01:50:18,119 --> 01:50:23,279
god. Some guy trying to say
some about g TA six Mike says great,

1572
01:50:23,359 --> 01:50:27,600
what, Oh my god? Everyone
everyone just you have to Oh there's

1573
01:50:27,840 --> 01:50:32,880
girder in those eyes. You have
to. Oh it's not letting me rewind

1574
01:50:32,960 --> 01:50:36,439
on YouTube. He must have that
chained off. I am. I'm gonna

1575
01:50:36,520 --> 01:50:41,479
have a hot take here. And
I think big events should have better security

1576
01:50:41,560 --> 01:50:44,520
than this. I don't think just
randoms should be able to run up to

1577
01:50:44,560 --> 01:50:51,399
the stage cost dollars security, Like
literally, you have enough security there to

1578
01:50:51,479 --> 01:50:55,840
keep you from meeting popcorn or whatever, Like, can you hire people to

1579
01:50:55,960 --> 01:50:59,600
keep people safe? No, that's
against they're not going to do that for

1580
01:50:59,680 --> 01:51:02,359
you. Keuperboy, Keiley is safe
please, Like he's a he's a nice

1581
01:51:02,399 --> 01:51:09,560
man. Yeah that's right, Queen. We've established that he's gonna get off

1582
01:51:09,640 --> 01:51:15,039
stage and he's gonna go ape shit. I but like real talk, I

1583
01:51:15,119 --> 01:51:17,479
could see I could see a dev
that like flew in for this and like,

1584
01:51:17,880 --> 01:51:20,640
no, I don't want to do
anything anymore because like this is twice

1585
01:51:21,079 --> 01:51:26,239
you know, like this. Yeah, right after that, Todd Howard came

1586
01:51:26,279 --> 01:51:28,880
on stage, so it's like he's
got to be like, all right,

1587
01:51:29,359 --> 01:51:31,159
I guess I have to do this
still. Well, now I'm definitely not

1588
01:51:31,239 --> 01:51:35,159
getting a new sky rim Kelly.
I'll lend you Scout. Scout will just

1589
01:51:35,279 --> 01:51:41,479
bark very aggressively at someone approaching you
that, yeah, that's what you need.

1590
01:51:41,600 --> 01:51:45,119
Just a couple cute little dogs that
will people won't go up on stage

1591
01:51:45,119 --> 01:51:48,319
because it'll be too distracted by the
cute little dogs. Exactly. Beautiful Scout

1592
01:51:48,359 --> 01:51:51,920
will just have like a little biker
vest on her with like studs and be

1593
01:51:53,039 --> 01:51:59,920
like the walk around here, buddy. She tripped me the other day.

1594
01:52:00,039 --> 01:52:03,000
She's a little butt head. You
know when you would like check your friends,

1595
01:52:03,119 --> 01:52:06,600
like as you're walking and like kick
the back of their knee and then

1596
01:52:06,640 --> 01:52:10,680
they kind of like crumble over.
She does that a lot. Now it's

1597
01:52:11,039 --> 01:52:15,479
she's terrible. Oh no, one
of them was wearing an Austin three sixteen

1598
01:52:15,560 --> 01:52:21,840
hoodie. Oh no, wrestling's weird
again. No, all right, I

1599
01:52:23,560 --> 01:52:27,520
have I cannot lend any expertise to
this email, but maybe the other folks

1600
01:52:27,600 --> 01:52:30,880
on this panel can. Pete from
Bristol, England writes in Dear GB crew,

1601
01:52:31,399 --> 01:52:35,439
my favorite gaming machine as a kid
was my Amiga five hundred. I

1602
01:52:35,520 --> 01:52:39,840
have so many fond memories of it, and my favorite games were Speedball two,

1603
01:52:40,000 --> 01:52:44,239
Monkey Island, Sensible Soccer, and
Civilization. I recently installed an Amiga

1604
01:52:44,279 --> 01:52:46,640
emulator so I could share some of
these memories with my nine year old son.

1605
01:52:47,319 --> 01:52:51,560
Reactions to these games that I showed
him were a mixture of horror,

1606
01:52:53,079 --> 01:52:57,680
laughter and pity smiley face emoji.
I would love to know one. Did

1607
01:52:57,720 --> 01:53:01,159
any of you have an Amiga or
it's arch rival, the Atarist. If

1608
01:53:01,239 --> 01:53:05,680
so, what were your favorite games
have you shown your childhood Have you showed

1609
01:53:05,680 --> 01:53:09,960
your childhood games to your kids?
Niece's nephews and what was their reaction.

1610
01:53:10,239 --> 01:53:14,159
Keep doing what you're doing. The
podcast is amazing. Best regards, Pete

1611
01:53:14,199 --> 01:53:18,159
from Bristol, England. Maga was
two. It was a little before my

1612
01:53:18,279 --> 01:53:23,439
time. I yeah, I was. Let's say, let's see, I

1613
01:53:23,520 --> 01:53:28,359
had the in television and all these
like the American consoles, we had an

1614
01:53:28,399 --> 01:53:30,520
Atari adapter for the in television stuff
like that. But all of these,

1615
01:53:30,640 --> 01:53:36,600
like UK computer gaming machines, we
missed out on those entirely. I did

1616
01:53:36,680 --> 01:53:42,319
not know about even the Commodore sixty
four, let alone the Amiga or anything

1617
01:53:42,399 --> 01:53:46,159
like that. I played in television
at one of my dad's friends house,

1618
01:53:46,239 --> 01:53:48,760
like that was the thing we did
when we went there, you know,

1619
01:53:48,880 --> 01:53:51,560
you like do those trips. And
you were like, well, at least

1620
01:53:51,600 --> 01:53:56,880
they'll have that weird game box thing
that's still connected to the TV in the

1621
01:53:56,920 --> 01:53:59,560
basement. When I get sure,
Yeah, ok, yeah, so I

1622
01:53:59,640 --> 01:54:03,560
do have like experience within television,
which I guess is cut from the same

1623
01:54:03,680 --> 01:54:06,800
cloth, that's even the same older. Yeah, yeah, that's even older

1624
01:54:06,840 --> 01:54:11,600
than I mean. Yeah, but
I think, like I mean, I

1625
01:54:11,720 --> 01:54:15,800
have shown he hasn't even seen like
Atari, you know, he hasn't even

1626
01:54:15,840 --> 01:54:18,760
seen that. I don't you know. But like I guess he's seen pac

1627
01:54:18,840 --> 01:54:21,960
Man and Space Invaders and that's really
all you kind of get. Yeah,

1628
01:54:23,000 --> 01:54:27,319
and those like suck really bad on
the Atari. So like if we're talking,

1629
01:54:27,600 --> 01:54:30,640
we'll talk about that generation of games. It's just like I get bummed

1630
01:54:30,640 --> 01:54:32,840
out when they don't even care about
any S games. I don't really get

1631
01:54:32,840 --> 01:54:35,399
bummed out, but it's like I
don't even like, I know they're gonna

1632
01:54:35,399 --> 01:54:39,359
get bored with it, so I
don't even try. And and so going

1633
01:54:39,399 --> 01:54:42,359
back to an era that I don't
even care about that much, yeah,

1634
01:54:42,760 --> 01:54:45,600
it's not with it. I think
the interesting discovery that I've made is that

1635
01:54:45,800 --> 01:54:50,840
like where when we were growing up, the thirst was fidelity, right,

1636
01:54:50,920 --> 01:54:55,239
it was like better graphics, better
sound, better everything like that was the

1637
01:54:55,319 --> 01:55:00,439
hot thing that you constantly chased.
Obviously, Like now it's not so much

1638
01:55:00,479 --> 01:55:02,720
the thing like if you just well, you know, look at roadblocks,

1639
01:55:02,840 --> 01:55:06,680
it's it looks like shit, it
looks like actual and kids are like,

1640
01:55:06,760 --> 01:55:10,880
give me, I'm not, I'm
not, I'm not. That's right.

1641
01:55:11,239 --> 01:55:15,760
So yeah, it's interesting. I
should I'll look into Amiga more because people

1642
01:55:15,760 --> 01:55:18,399
have always mentioned that there's some wild
stuff on there. And people in chat

1643
01:55:18,439 --> 01:55:20,159
are saying that too. I'm like, yeah, maybe it's time to go

1644
01:55:20,239 --> 01:55:24,800
back and look at that. Yeah, you know what, I'm curious.

1645
01:55:24,840 --> 01:55:27,399
I have no frame of reference for
what any of it would look like.

1646
01:55:28,520 --> 01:55:31,199
Yeah, it looks like a little
computer. Jan, you and I neither

1647
01:55:31,279 --> 01:55:35,199
of us had motor skills developed,
but by the time this thing was discontinued,

1648
01:55:35,319 --> 01:55:39,880
so it makes total sense that we
didn't have one. When when did

1649
01:55:39,960 --> 01:55:43,680
this come out? Is this is
this pre seven and then discontinued in ninety

1650
01:55:43,760 --> 01:55:46,760
two? Okay, well that barely. Yeah we were still we were still

1651
01:55:46,840 --> 01:55:51,319
soft. Good. Yeah, our
skulls hadn't like fully eighty seven. I

1652
01:55:51,479 --> 01:55:57,319
feel like it's when I got in
an e s that's definitely when this is

1653
01:55:57,520 --> 01:56:00,840
the full on little computer. Actually, yeah, wow, look at this.

1654
01:56:00,279 --> 01:56:03,680
It's yeah, it's cool. I
would rather play Monkey Island on my

1655
01:56:03,760 --> 01:56:08,000
own little computer, but like I
could see if you didn't have another option,

1656
01:56:08,159 --> 01:56:11,520
this looks cute. These these were
the things that were like popular in

1657
01:56:11,560 --> 01:56:14,920
the UK, these kinds of gaming
devices that just looked like little computers,

1658
01:56:15,039 --> 01:56:17,239
like that's what we had. Yeah, I wonder if this is what Lucy's

1659
01:56:17,359 --> 01:56:21,000
dad used. Yeah, I mean
something along these lines for sure. Yes,

1660
01:56:21,760 --> 01:56:26,720
I'm always on Commodore. Okay,
I'm always wondering what Lucy's dad used

1661
01:56:26,760 --> 01:56:32,640
to play games. Uh. Next
email comes from Mike, not our Mike

1662
01:56:33,319 --> 01:56:36,680
darkcum me here, my partner of
almost a decade broke up with me last

1663
01:56:36,720 --> 01:56:41,720
week. Oh shit? Is it
a blessing in disguise due to Balder's Gate

1664
01:56:41,800 --> 01:56:48,520
three on Steam Deck and the eminent
release of Starfield Jesus Christ From Mike no

1665
01:56:48,640 --> 01:56:55,760
longer from Boston, sent from my
own Listen, listen. I don't know

1666
01:56:55,840 --> 01:57:00,439
the circumstances of your decade long relationship, but I gotta say, Mike,

1667
01:57:00,680 --> 01:57:05,159
your pivot, nonchalant as it were, to just joking about being able to

1668
01:57:05,199 --> 01:57:10,159
play video games, leads me to
believe that things were not that serious.

1669
01:57:11,840 --> 01:57:15,800
Look that's all. That's all I'm
saying. Like, maybe maybe you're you

1670
01:57:15,000 --> 01:57:18,600
found an excellent way to look at
the situation and have a sense of humor

1671
01:57:18,640 --> 01:57:21,359
about it. Bless you for it? Sounds like to me, Yeah,

1672
01:57:21,760 --> 01:57:26,720
yeah, that means this dark humor
here, which means yeah, I'm partner

1673
01:57:26,880 --> 01:57:30,199
of almost a decade. Before you
start playing all these games, make sure

1674
01:57:30,239 --> 01:57:33,159
you take care of yourself first and
make sure you're doing all right, and

1675
01:57:33,279 --> 01:57:40,520
then go go nex Starfield. Do
not take care of yourself forget to eat,

1676
01:57:40,600 --> 01:57:45,079
forget to sleep, to shower.
Focus your energy on what's important.

1677
01:57:45,199 --> 01:57:47,840
Fucking the bear. Bear, Fuck
the bear. Yes, make it happen,

1678
01:57:48,560 --> 01:57:53,720
nothing except for fucking the bear.
So definitely try not to get super

1679
01:57:53,800 --> 01:57:58,920
frustrated when the game makes that near
impossible. Get back on the horse and

1680
01:57:59,119 --> 01:58:01,560
fuck the bear the two things.
After a break you can turn into a

1681
01:58:01,680 --> 01:58:08,760
horse. There you turn into a
horse and the ass. Let's go FB.

1682
01:58:10,239 --> 01:58:14,239
This is how you know you gotta
get to rock bottom before you start

1683
01:58:14,319 --> 01:58:17,720
climbing up. My friend, you
know we all have to suffer ego death

1684
01:58:18,039 --> 01:58:24,640
to fully be reborn and everything.
You get the bare bottom, Well,

1685
01:58:25,640 --> 01:58:29,960
all right, get the al right. Next text emails very PGD compared to

1686
01:58:30,000 --> 01:58:31,920
where we took someone getting out of
a long relationship. But Mike, I

1687
01:58:32,000 --> 01:58:36,239
hope you're okay. Uh. This
one is about coffee. Hey, bomb

1688
01:58:36,319 --> 01:58:41,239
cast specifically Jan because of his coffee
fetish, which is a fetish I'm striving

1689
01:58:41,279 --> 01:58:43,880
to have. Hey, let me
let me show you some books. I

1690
01:58:43,960 --> 01:58:47,159
have questions about coffee, specifically espresso. I got a cheapest spresso machine for

1691
01:58:47,239 --> 01:58:49,920
Christmas last year, and I love
it. It's not the best around,

1692
01:58:49,960 --> 01:58:53,600
but it still want to use every
day. I have been sticking with the

1693
01:58:53,720 --> 01:58:58,880
cafe Bostello good good good, it's
good stuff ground being coffee because it is

1694
01:58:58,920 --> 01:59:03,279
specifically labeled espresso. Am I to
understand that I can really use any bean

1695
01:59:03,439 --> 01:59:08,159
provided I grind it fine enough to
make a shot of espresso. I could

1696
01:59:08,199 --> 01:59:11,079
take a bag of beans from a
local coffee shop and use that from my

1697
01:59:11,159 --> 01:59:14,680
coffee. I've been under the impression
I can only use Espresso labeled beans,

1698
01:59:14,720 --> 01:59:17,239
and therefore haven't really tried much other
than that. What are other tips of

1699
01:59:17,319 --> 01:59:21,239
making good espresso on a cheap machine? I don't think I'm I don't think

1700
01:59:21,359 --> 01:59:25,880
I'm legally allowed to take a mortgage
out on my apartment to afford a state

1701
01:59:25,920 --> 01:59:28,960
of the art machine. I've seen
the idea of using a leveler to make

1702
01:59:29,000 --> 01:59:31,399
sure it brewis evenly and soon set
to measure out how much coffee. I'm

1703
01:59:31,479 --> 01:59:35,680
you say that seems like too much
work? Help? We'd love save from

1704
01:59:35,720 --> 01:59:44,680
Pennsylvania, look like it? I
learned in this in this letter, Like

1705
01:59:44,720 --> 01:59:46,560
Wow, this guy really knows this
stuff about the coffee getting too Maybe I

1706
01:59:46,640 --> 01:59:53,399
should measure it like they're probably measuring. It's a great first step even I

1707
01:59:53,520 --> 01:59:57,000
know that one, so maybe do
that. Yeah, it's like the first

1708
01:59:58,960 --> 02:00:04,119
it's got a step this go all
right, Sorry, I missed the conversation.

1709
02:00:04,199 --> 02:00:06,960
What were we talking about before I
abruptly left? Oh, I was

1710
02:00:08,039 --> 02:00:11,920
just saying, it's wild that the
twist at the end that he wasn't even

1711
02:00:12,000 --> 02:00:15,199
measuring his coffee. Continue all right, all right, zay, look me

1712
02:00:15,279 --> 02:00:18,119
in the eyes, buddy, or
hear me in the ears. Let me

1713
02:00:18,319 --> 02:00:21,199
let me channel three. Open your
ears, let let me talk to you.

1714
02:00:21,439 --> 02:00:28,760
Yeah, espresso is just the label. That's just dark beans, buddy.

1715
02:00:28,800 --> 02:00:31,680
You can use any beans. Just
grind it. Fine, it's just

1716
02:00:31,800 --> 02:00:35,760
the it's just the fineness that's it. It's just espresso is a brewing method,

1717
02:00:36,159 --> 02:00:39,399
first of all. Like that's like
you're gonna when you're doing this spread

1718
02:00:39,479 --> 02:00:42,560
like that's so you can put any
bean into that. You don't need espresso

1719
02:00:42,640 --> 02:00:45,319
beans especial going to grind it harder
and then gets you more fucked up.

1720
02:00:45,680 --> 02:00:53,560
Grind it longer, miner, finer, finer, harder, whatever. It's

1721
02:00:53,600 --> 02:00:57,239
like, it's not gonna get you
more fucked up. I mean it will

1722
02:00:57,279 --> 02:00:59,720
get you if you drink a lot
more espresso. Yes, but it's like

1723
02:00:59,760 --> 02:01:01,920
it's it's still going to be like
the same process that it gets you same

1724
02:01:01,960 --> 02:01:04,279
amount of caffeine. Basically, yes, all right, but let me hear

1725
02:01:04,319 --> 02:01:09,319
what you're gonna say. Jan So
espresso beans are just darker roasted beans because

1726
02:01:09,399 --> 02:01:13,640
generally people associate espresso with like tasting
like mud. It doesn't gotta taste like

1727
02:01:13,720 --> 02:01:16,600
mud, y'all. You can floral
undertones. It can like cherries maybe like

1728
02:01:17,039 --> 02:01:21,760
a dark bar of and everything.
You can use any beans. Support your

1729
02:01:21,760 --> 02:01:30,199
local roastery buddies also get one of
these guys like a vacuum stealer thing right

1730
02:01:30,239 --> 02:01:35,359
there, like cherries and the woods. When you were here, I should

1731
02:01:35,359 --> 02:01:40,239
have had you done a coffee makeover. That would have been a good video.

1732
02:01:40,479 --> 02:01:43,039
Let's do it. Let's do it, you know. Uh? I

1733
02:01:43,600 --> 02:01:46,680
also my friend, if you don't
want to get a full stand up,

1734
02:01:47,239 --> 02:01:51,720
uh, don't trust by the way, the coffee grinders at a grocery store,

1735
02:01:51,800 --> 02:01:55,600
they will not grind it fine enough
for you. No, don't get

1736
02:01:55,800 --> 02:02:00,520
a hand grinder one of these bad
boys some elbow. You should do it

1737
02:02:00,800 --> 02:02:03,239
exactly how long should the handgrinder takes. I feel like when I use my

1738
02:02:03,279 --> 02:02:08,720
handgrinder, it takes forever. Well, you're just playing with it, gus,

1739
02:02:09,359 --> 02:02:14,960
I'm not serious. Definitely a very
state of the art burr handgrinder.

1740
02:02:15,560 --> 02:02:17,640
Well, shouldn't take too long.
I'd say up to a minute, max

1741
02:02:17,880 --> 02:02:20,479
up to a minute fine? A
minute's fine, okay, okay, cool,

1742
02:02:20,479 --> 02:02:23,960
all right. The other thing you
gotta do, get a level or

1743
02:02:24,079 --> 02:02:27,479
say, you gotta get a tamp
or tamp the ship down so everything's even,

1744
02:02:28,000 --> 02:02:31,520
so the water disperses through everything evenly. You don't. That's why people

1745
02:02:31,680 --> 02:02:35,840
prefer rain style showers. It's not
just because it's a fun novelty. It's

1746
02:02:35,880 --> 02:02:42,680
because all of the water's just dripping
onto you evenly. My friend would would

1747
02:02:42,720 --> 02:02:45,520
a gigantic leap there. Okay,
Next thing you gotta do, you gotta

1748
02:02:45,560 --> 02:02:48,880
get a w DT What is a
w DDT I forget what stands for,

1749
02:02:49,079 --> 02:02:55,199
but it's something dispersal tool, So
you gotta get it's here's what you can

1750
02:02:55,279 --> 02:02:58,239
do. Get a cork stick,
a bunch of toothpicks to it, stir

1751
02:02:58,359 --> 02:03:02,279
around your coffee grinds your expresso basket
before tampering it so there's no little clumps

1752
02:03:02,399 --> 02:03:05,960
we hate clumps. It's like making
a good pancake batter, no clumps.

1753
02:03:06,239 --> 02:03:10,720
And then say say, look me, are you still listening to me?

1754
02:03:10,960 --> 02:03:14,479
You tune out yet? Are you
now scared of diving down the coffee hole

1755
02:03:14,560 --> 02:03:16,399
with me? Because it's too late, it's too fucking lightered. I think,

1756
02:03:18,199 --> 02:03:20,279
get a little scale. Go get
a little scale, because you got

1757
02:03:20,359 --> 02:03:26,079
to weigh everything. Baking and making
coffee is one and the same because it

1758
02:03:26,199 --> 02:03:30,720
is an exact science. There's no
fun jazz here exactly. It's a specific

1759
02:03:30,800 --> 02:03:33,359
sale about coffee because then you got
you gotta time it, you know,

1760
02:03:33,399 --> 02:03:38,359
because to do a proper extraction and
can't take a lot of minute. Got

1761
02:03:38,359 --> 02:03:41,840
a lot of single use gadgets.
Huh no, it's all to serve one

1762
02:03:41,920 --> 02:03:51,319
purpose. I can still waste.
That's the definition of single use. And

1763
02:03:51,359 --> 02:03:54,880
then hey, if you want to
get even even freak ear with it,

1764
02:03:55,079 --> 02:03:59,800
you know, go get like a
little different uh not gasket, I forget

1765
02:03:59,800 --> 02:04:01,680
the word a porter filter. Yeah, you could get a different porta filter

1766
02:04:01,800 --> 02:04:06,119
for your cheaper espresso machine and just
make it nice. It's great, Like

1767
02:04:06,319 --> 02:04:10,199
espresso companies. Why the funck haven't
you sponsored? Boy? You know,

1768
02:04:10,479 --> 02:04:15,479
it's either give me a Disney or
candlebox or an espresso machine. Please.

1769
02:04:15,960 --> 02:04:18,600
Seems I've been in d MS.
Yeah, totally. I've tried. M

1770
02:04:19,960 --> 02:04:24,760
keep trying. It's gonna happen.
You're gonna crack that nut eventually. That

1771
02:04:24,880 --> 02:04:28,039
about my favorite thing you showed us
was the tamper. That seems the thing

1772
02:04:28,119 --> 02:04:30,079
to me that could be most easily
replaced by just the back of a spoon.

1773
02:04:30,439 --> 02:04:34,239
Yeah, that's what I know,
you with a spoon. Egnogically,

1774
02:04:34,640 --> 02:04:38,800
it's just but like, okay,
find of measuring up? How about that?

1775
02:04:39,119 --> 02:04:42,920
No, it's machine. It's gonna
come with a p. I'm not

1776
02:04:43,239 --> 02:04:46,119
not criticizing, I'm not judging.
I'm just criticizing and judging a little bit.

1777
02:04:46,479 --> 02:04:48,840
It seems like you just got a
lot of fun toys for your coffee

1778
02:04:48,880 --> 02:04:53,560
porn. I'm gonna make all y'all
a cup and you'll be like, oh,

1779
02:04:53,680 --> 02:04:56,720
no, I can taste the difference. I'm sort of for making fun

1780
02:04:56,760 --> 02:04:59,039
of you for a little bit at
least, Joe, No, I don't

1781
02:04:59,119 --> 02:05:01,680
doubt it, but I think you
would have a tough time telling the difference

1782
02:05:01,720 --> 02:05:06,279
between the espresso that's been flattened and
espresso that has not been flatt. Oh,

1783
02:05:06,399 --> 02:05:10,119
I can tell, I can tell. Don't make me get into the

1784
02:05:10,439 --> 02:05:14,319
magic of rostretto on top of espresso. It's that's I can make up words

1785
02:05:14,359 --> 02:05:16,239
too, Jan, It's a thing. It's a thing. Fucked up your

1786
02:05:16,239 --> 02:05:23,840
boy. I want espresso machine so
so desperately, but you've scared me away

1787
02:05:23,960 --> 02:05:27,000
at their cost. I got one
for Christmas several years ago from my wife.

1788
02:05:27,119 --> 02:05:30,159
Used it every day, Thank you
very much. Yo. Hey,

1789
02:05:30,279 --> 02:05:33,880
hey, I'm not on the espresso
side of the internet. That that poo

1790
02:05:33,960 --> 02:05:39,520
poos on on Brevil machines. Brevils
are completely great. They're great. They're

1791
02:05:39,560 --> 02:05:45,640
good home machines. You know,
DELONGI whatever, you could make it work.

1792
02:05:45,960 --> 02:05:48,319
Any cheap espresso machine you can make
work. So don't worries A from

1793
02:05:48,319 --> 02:05:53,039
Pennsylvania. You can make it work. I just got a trench to hold

1794
02:05:53,079 --> 02:05:57,640
brew with no ice from Starbucks and
call it a day work too. You

1795
02:05:57,760 --> 02:06:00,199
hate Starbucks coffee, Jan, I
don't hate it. I mean it's not

1796
02:06:00,439 --> 02:06:04,880
good. I just drink. I'll
drink thirty thirty liquid ounces of it,

1797
02:06:05,079 --> 02:06:10,239
but I'm not gonna say it's good. How do I like with my travel?

1798
02:06:10,319 --> 02:06:13,159
Like? Okay, real quick before
we say goodbye, like I need

1799
02:06:13,600 --> 02:06:18,239
travel, Like I am anxious about
good coffee while I'm away, and I

1800
02:06:18,399 --> 02:06:21,079
like freak out that I'm going to
be in a hotel that's like just got

1801
02:06:21,239 --> 02:06:24,640
trashed here coffee, and I don't
know what to do. So like,

1802
02:06:25,119 --> 02:06:29,319
do you have like a mcgiver way
to deal with that coffee travel advice?

1803
02:06:29,680 --> 02:06:32,920
Coffee travel hacks. If you don't
want to take up like one tenth of

1804
02:06:33,000 --> 02:06:36,439
your luggage, then my advice is
going to fall upon deaf ears. Deaf

1805
02:06:36,520 --> 02:06:42,640
ears, hey, you know they're
in your area. If there is a

1806
02:06:42,760 --> 02:06:46,560
third wave style coffee shop, the
new hotness is instant coffee and majority of

1807
02:06:46,600 --> 02:06:51,439
the it's the coffee not bad.
Huh yeah, okay, Yeah, I

1808
02:06:51,520 --> 02:06:57,760
didn't really answer my problem, but
thank you next time you put a little

1809
02:06:57,800 --> 02:06:59,880
bit of it in some in Like
if you make a chocolate cake, if

1810
02:06:59,920 --> 02:07:02,439
you put a little bit of ground
coffee in the coffee and the chocolate cake,

1811
02:07:02,479 --> 02:07:04,600
it brings out the flavor more.
It doesn't taste like coffee. It

1812
02:07:04,640 --> 02:07:10,319
just makes the cough the chocolate taste
richer. Put some in your Japanese curry,

1813
02:07:10,560 --> 02:07:15,439
same same effects. Oh okay,
oh, actually yeah, you know

1814
02:07:15,640 --> 02:07:18,279
Dan Dan Underscore City an aero press. It's it's good, but you still

1815
02:07:18,359 --> 02:07:23,239
need you still need ground of coffee. That's the other thing. Oh god,

1816
02:07:23,439 --> 02:07:27,840
can someone just give me a question? Can espresso machines make coffee?

1817
02:07:28,079 --> 02:07:30,520
I know coffee machines can make espresso, but can the special machines make coffee?

1818
02:07:30,560 --> 02:07:35,039
They should be able to it?
Twins on what you define? Like

1819
02:07:35,079 --> 02:07:40,359
you could make like an Americano?
Uh, because like mine broke Jan's heart

1820
02:07:40,479 --> 02:07:45,840
just here, you know, look
at him crasp in his chest and pain

1821
02:07:46,359 --> 02:07:53,880
emotional coffee paint of espresso today?
How about no? Not enough? Oh

1822
02:07:54,000 --> 02:07:57,159
man? What okay? Sorry blacked
out for a second. I guess you

1823
02:07:57,239 --> 02:08:00,359
can. I guess you can't ask. I guess you can't ask the bad

1824
02:08:00,439 --> 02:08:05,239
question possible grub is right? You
can just make an Americano. You can.

1825
02:08:05,399 --> 02:08:07,119
You can just pull a shot and
then add hot water to it,

1826
02:08:07,560 --> 02:08:11,520
because yeah, and a lot of
the machines are made to do exactly that

1827
02:08:11,560 --> 02:08:13,840
because they know people aren't. Most
people aren't doing shots of espresso. So

1828
02:08:15,640 --> 02:08:18,640
I'm not I'm not calling anyone silly. I didn't mean to make anyone feel

1829
02:08:18,680 --> 02:08:22,039
shame. I was just like,
except the shame I'm feeling. But thank

1830
02:08:22,079 --> 02:08:24,039
you. Make it myself, but
I will say a shout out to the

1831
02:08:24,079 --> 02:08:26,560
coffee place down the street for me
when I want to feel fancy, you'll

1832
02:08:26,600 --> 02:08:31,119
put espresso on I with some tonic
water and a little bit of orange and

1833
02:08:31,239 --> 02:08:35,560
it. Well, that sounds delightful. Oh good, yo, yo,

1834
02:08:35,680 --> 02:08:39,079
yo yo. That's the ship right
there. Yeah, it's it's my special

1835
02:08:39,119 --> 02:08:41,680
little treat form when I wanted a
little treat. Uh, don't knock this,

1836
02:08:41,840 --> 02:08:46,720
and this is going to sound absolutely
disgusting. Put a shot of espresso

1837
02:08:46,800 --> 02:08:50,279
and orange juice. No, that's
no, that's disgusting. No, I

1838
02:08:50,600 --> 02:08:52,640
realized I just said. A little
bit of orange is in the espresso drink

1839
02:08:52,680 --> 02:08:56,680
that I drink. But it feels
like doing the reverse is something that only

1840
02:08:56,760 --> 02:09:01,800
a pervert would do. And I
am not that because the bear keeps fucking

1841
02:09:01,840 --> 02:09:07,319
rejecting me speaking about pervs. Uh, grub you you remember the Mary Poppins

1842
02:09:07,399 --> 02:09:11,760
email that I read on armac grubbin
yesterday when we read that, should we

1843
02:09:11,840 --> 02:09:16,239
real do it? Yes's hit it? Yeah? Okay, all right,

1844
02:09:18,359 --> 02:09:22,239
I'm gonna look up Mary Poppins Roule
thirty four while you're doing that. Whoa

1845
02:09:24,239 --> 02:09:30,439
Stefan and Adelaide South Australia wrote in
I just saw Mary Poppins the Stage musical

1846
02:09:30,560 --> 02:09:35,359
over the weekend and came to the
realization that I'm horny as fuck from Mary

1847
02:09:35,399 --> 02:09:39,560
Poppins now, and now that he's
reading this, so is Jan. Just

1848
02:09:39,680 --> 02:09:45,079
think about it. You got the
dommy mommy adjacent role was zero percent incest

1849
02:09:45,319 --> 02:09:48,800
and you're not dogging one of your
parents for life with a step mom fantasy.

1850
02:09:48,920 --> 02:09:56,000
Just think about her lifting up that
bustle and sliding down your banister giving

1851
02:09:56,000 --> 02:10:00,479
you all kinds of sugary medicine.
Wow, well there's more, Jan,

1852
02:10:01,079 --> 02:10:07,960
I know you're desperate for that supercalifragilistic
expialid to see. I bet medicine ain't

1853
02:10:07,000 --> 02:10:13,159
the only thing. Whispering it doesn't
make it less bad, makes it worse.

1854
02:10:13,800 --> 02:10:16,600
I bet medicine ain't the only thing
A spoonful of sugar helps go down,

1855
02:10:16,680 --> 02:10:24,039
if you know what I mean.
Getting Nanny Pilled Love from Stefan Adelaide,

bring back the original KFC Chicken Snacker
sandwich with the Herb Mayo. They were

1929
02:15:48,479 --> 02:15:52,479
only a dollar each. Delicious fifty
y'all blink, we could have held the

1930
02:15:54,000 --> 02:15:56,800
line at all. Fifties worked so
well. The week y'all copy paste of

1931
02:15:56,840 --> 02:16:01,119
Jan didn't read them all. Freedom
or death shout out section and rule followers

1932
02:16:01,199 --> 02:16:03,359
only you know what Jan never specified
at length of individual shout outs. So

1933
02:16:03,479 --> 02:16:07,880
in theory, one could compose a
super long shout out that compensates for the

1934
02:16:07,920 --> 02:16:11,760
new unnatural elements that have an opposed
on the shoutouts. Ecosystem. Life will

1935
02:16:11,840 --> 02:16:13,520
find a way and that's it for
the shoutouts. I hate all of you,

1936
02:16:13,680 --> 02:16:18,960
I love all of you. It
seems like grubs microphone works. Now,

1937
02:16:20,039 --> 02:16:22,600
what do we got going on this
week? Yeah, we're gonna be

1938
02:16:22,640 --> 02:16:30,560
playing Labyrinthine tomorrow where me bacalar en
Dan. We're gonna go into the labyrinths

1939
02:16:30,640 --> 02:16:33,239
of a horror game on Steam and
co op. So it seems like it's

1940
02:16:33,280 --> 02:16:35,520
gonna be a good times. Tune
in for that. That'll be the time

1941
02:16:35,559 --> 02:16:41,600
we would normally do Blight Club.
Dan literally lost his copy of Sonic.

1942
02:16:41,680 --> 02:16:46,319
It's the only thing he lost in
his move, right, sure likely story,

1943
02:16:46,479 --> 02:16:48,879
So Dan, he needs some form
of punishment, So I welcome my

1944
02:16:50,440 --> 02:16:54,239
at me on Twitter and come up
with ideas. We'll find a way to

1945
02:16:54,280 --> 02:16:58,600
punish him. So we'll do Labyrinthine
tomorrow, Thursday, what voicemail, dumb

1946
02:16:58,639 --> 02:17:01,760
truck up f one Friday, we'll
do some fun stuff there. A bunch

02:17:01,760 --> 02:17:03,959

1948
02:17:03,000 --> 02:17:07,520
rest of the week. An Honest
Game trailers dropped. If you missed us

1949
02:17:07,520 --> 02:17:11,200

1950
02:17:11,239 --> 02:17:15,680
else he doing? Oh god,
what a great question. A bunch of

1951
02:17:15,680 --> 02:17:18,799
stuff I'm not allowed to talk about
yet. But next week's Honest Game trailers

1952
02:17:18,799 --> 02:17:22,200

1953
02:17:22,239 --> 02:17:24,920
me to revealable that will be too
So just go watch the fruits of my

1954
02:17:24,040 --> 02:17:28,879
labor. I cried trying to get
footage of this game for all of you.

1955
02:17:28,040 --> 02:17:35,000
So I think we really yelled at
two in the morning and woke up

1956
02:17:35,040 --> 02:17:37,959
my cat. We may be we
may be thinking about the same game.

1957
02:17:39,319 --> 02:17:41,760
And then I was close to crying
for that one as well. H Quick

I appreciate that the there's a there's
a d buff if you play me
