only large talk. Yeah, how's
life it's going on over there in

24
00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:59.079
game spot Land? Video games now
that guy is out. Video games.

25
00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:02.760
Now that's out kind of just playing
other things and chilling out, getting ready

26
00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:07.200
to fall now that chilling out In
this pre pre packs period, yep.

27
00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:09.199
Yeah. I feel like No Man
Sky was was the crest of the hill,

28
00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:13.919
Like you can't see anything beyond it
once it comes out, and then

29
00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:17.240
like okay, that's fine, that's
we know where that lives now and now

30
00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:21.280
we can see the rest of the
year things. Things felt very different in

31
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:24.719
the pre and post No Man Sky
Worlds. Yes, pre pre was full

32
00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:29.719
of wonder and hope and excitement.
I'm gonna continue to stick to Madden as

33
00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:32.039
the game that is that. Okay, not out of any not out of

34
00:02:32.039 --> 00:02:36.800
any like care about Madden, but
historics just like that, historically that is

35
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:43.280
the game. When games start coming
out again, AM and B M.

36
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:47.960
Yeah, BM, definitely BM.
We are currently BM unless you're unless you

37
00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:52.719
are on an Xbox one. I
think that they are in that territory living

38
00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:55.120
in a post Madden world right now. When's the actual release dates? I

39
00:02:55.120 --> 00:03:00.319
think it's this week? Oh so
they've had it since like what frid whatever.

40
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:01.840
I don't know that earlier. For
as much as I like put value

41
00:03:01.879 --> 00:03:05.120
on the release state of Madden as
when games start coming out, you think

42
00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:07.080
I would actually know, but it
is the internationally recognized standard. Yeah,

43
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:10.319
it's the beginning of fall. I
believe the Madden release date is traditionally the

44
00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:16.360
shortest day of the year. Yeah, Winters basically the maddened solstice. Yeah,

45
00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:22.560
everyone just stays on their busses and
cooks turducans and I don't know the

46
00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:24.479
bus on the bus is where the
party is? That That would be a

47
00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:27.960
great That does sound great? What
do you think? What do you think

48
00:03:27.960 --> 00:03:30.800
of John Madden? Thanksgiving is like, I don't know, like a lot

49
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:36.439
of I don't know, a lot
of crotchety anger and food probably like every

50
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:39.280
other like every other, every other
day, Madden household. Do you cook

51
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:43.800
on the bus? I think you
probably. I think you take this the

52
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:47.120
cooking gear off the bus. And
because you're you're probably like deep frying stuff,

53
00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:51.400
you probably do that. You won't
be on the maddened bus deep frying

54
00:03:51.479 --> 00:03:53.759
stuff like the walls get greasy.
It's just nasty at that because he's just

55
00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:58.120
tailgating. Yeah, get out,
get out on the asphalt. Probably.

56
00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:02.319
Yeah, how old that dude at
this point, he's uh, fourteen years

57
00:04:02.800 --> 00:04:08.599
years young, and we wish him
the best. Yeah, indeed, I

58
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:12.360
don't know. Madden has not been
a voice in Madden sometime now, so

59
00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:15.000
it's not not been much of a
public figure. I guess not. I

60
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.319
guess not what happens what I think
he's still on the radio here locally or

61
00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:20.519
minimum, like talking about the Raiders
or something, because he used to like

62
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:24.560
coach the Raider. Was he from
here? Yes? I know that.

63
00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:28.439
Yeah, so he's based here and
wait he drives the bus other place?

64
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:30.319
Bus is here? Yeah, if
you want to mean, we don't know

65
00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:32.680
if the bus is here, it
might be in some other city. He

66
00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:36.439
might be in the bus doing Yes, John Madden has busses and other area

67
00:04:36.439 --> 00:04:41.360
codes. Yes, yes, definitely, But generally speaking, I know,

68
00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:45.720
uh, I know Game Spot went
down and filmed something in the Madden compound

69
00:04:45.800 --> 00:04:47.600
one year, some years before your
time. I mean, like like on

70
00:04:47.639 --> 00:04:51.120
his estate. Yeah, like I
think I think Homer saw the bus.

71
00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:58.399
Wow, is what I'm saying.
So the Madden Cruiser as it is officially

72
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:01.920
known. I don't know, yeah
that those are the sorts of opportunities e

73
00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:04.519
I used to present around and maddened
releases. I don't know, you want

74
00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:10.399
to go to John Madden's house and
see you could play John to John Madden's

75
00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:12.279
house, Like, all right,
that's a weird I guess. I don't

76
00:05:12.279 --> 00:05:15.199
know. Yeah, football everyone loves, not ball, right, not quite

77
00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:17.480
the gallant event that it used to
be. No, it's not quite the

78
00:05:17.519 --> 00:05:23.399
fucking Ozzy Osbourne standing on the top
of the Marquis in New York playing live

79
00:05:23.519 --> 00:05:28.839
Madden midnight. Really it's huge Madden
fan. Oh yeah, loves two things

80
00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:35.680
extra marital affairs and football. Here's
your grab bag. It's got a bit

81
00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:40.800
of key and tough act internecting,
yeah, pretty much. Boom yeah,

82
00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:46.879
and a dove live dove suitable for
yeah, super for yes, or will

83
00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:49.680
be heading. Yes, that's the
technical term. Indeed, delicious. Put

84
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:54.199
that in your protein bars. No, so you, mister, is that

85
00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:59.920
paleo? I don't know it's a
bird, right, yeah, yeah,

86
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:02.160
that's sure. That's you. Put
it inside the turducan. It's a turduct

87
00:06:02.279 --> 00:06:11.600
dove doven dove dove akin. I
think it's again. What's going on,

88
00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:14.560
Jeff? Oh, how much it's
happening. Oh, it's new in the

89
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:15.920
world. What's new in the world. That's a big question. And I

90
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:19.839
think the Olympics are over right did
they end? Yeah? Actually, actually

91
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:24.399
have no idea. Yes, because
I launched the app, uh and it

92
00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:28.439
said closing ceremonies. Okay, so
you can watch that in your in your

93
00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:32.680
app? Nice? What okay?
Alright? An app? I uh this

94
00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:36.959
you this Olympics more than any other. Perhaps I did not realize the Olympics

95
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:40.879
were happening until yeah, most of
the way through. It was really hard

96
00:06:40.959 --> 00:06:46.279
for the fucking if fucking asshole guy
didn't lie about sucking up the bathroom or

97
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:49.160
whatever. I don't even think I
would have known that the Olympics were like

98
00:06:49.600 --> 00:06:55.240
whatever, what exact simmer? Okay, what exactly did take place. Okay,

99
00:06:55.319 --> 00:06:58.360
So, first of all, this
swimmer stole his catchphrase from a rapper

100
00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:03.199
called MC eight ei ht experiencing hardcore
thumping. Okay, and uh so this

101
00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:08.399
fucking douchebag swimmer guys going around going
gay. He was, Oh, you're

102
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:11.000
a fucking piece of garden. He
was, he was, He was known.

103
00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:14.800
He was known for jia and also
being an idiot. Like four years

104
00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:17.480
ago, I guess, so I
had only heard of him in the context

105
00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:21.000
of him stealing this rappers catchphrase and
then trying to trade market or something.

106
00:07:21.040 --> 00:07:25.079
That was That was That was the
twenty twelve Lockty scandals. The broom.

107
00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:29.519
Apparently in Rio, him and some
other swimmers went and fucked up a bathroom

108
00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:32.639
while they were drunk, and then
a security guard or cop or somebody said

109
00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:36.000
hey, you need to pay for
that, and drew a gun on them,

110
00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:39.800
and then they went and reported it
as a robbery. The thing is

111
00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:43.519
that this for like the better part
of a week, I think almost a

112
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:46.839
week, the story was in the
air that they had been robbed at gunpoint,

113
00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:48.839
and that's the story he told the
news. And then it started unraveling

114
00:07:48.879 --> 00:07:51.800
as they started looking at footage and
apparently he or I don't know if it

115
00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:56.199
was just him or the whatever.
At some point I stopped paying attention to

116
00:07:56.199 --> 00:07:59.560
even this. But like he's been
dropped by sponsors and all the other stuff,

117
00:07:59.600 --> 00:08:01.480
Like he's come out endorsement, he's
come out and given a non apology

118
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:05.800
apology about his excuse for why he
told this lie was that he was still

119
00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:09.480
drunk from the night before when the
news interviewed him the next day. Yeah,

120
00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:11.920
alright, kid, what happened at
the Olympics this year? Pools turned

121
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:18.240
green? Yeah? Yeah, the
Olympics were coming. Was that I saw

122
00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:22.439
the upticking stories about how bad Rio
is, yeah, and it was just

123
00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:24.879
like, oh, just well,
everyone's gonna die at the Olympics. If

124
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.160
it's not Zeke, it's gonna be
murder, you know. It's like yeah,

125
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:31.560
so jeez. Yeah. And then
on top of that, the ratings

126
00:08:31.560 --> 00:08:35.399
were super down because who watches the
Olympics in this day and age. Uh

127
00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:39.879
So I would have loved to,
but they make it really hard, like

128
00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:45.320
they like the when like the eight
pm when you're off of work, Olympics

129
00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:48.679
is just boring, not not a
ton going on. Yeah, I would

130
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:52.720
think that on in our house most
of the time. Actually, so yeah,

131
00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:56.679
we just downloaded like a Rooku app
and they keep pretty you know,

132
00:08:56.600 --> 00:09:01.840
good view of like everything that that
happened. You know, they'll have odds

133
00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:05.720
for that. And it seems like
they need to have like two ways to

134
00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:07.639
watch the Olympics, not the triple
pack of your It needs to be,

135
00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:13.919
Hey, you turn on NBC as
NBC and you can watch Primetime Olympics and

136
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:16.679
we'll show you the best stuff,
not live, right, And then there

137
00:09:16.720 --> 00:09:18.639
needs to be if you're a lunatic
and just want to watch all the Olympics

138
00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:22.840
live, there's an app for that, right, Like that's everything broken out,

139
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:26.559
which actually the NBC app does.
It's like, oh, what sport

140
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:28.840
do you want? It's really hard
to use. But finally, if you

141
00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:31.840
dig deep enough, you could like, oh, I want to watch the

142
00:09:31.960 --> 00:09:37.320
individual finals for men's ring, And
do I need to have a TV subscription

143
00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:41.519
to get any of that or is
it just kind of it's rings like the

144
00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:48.200
thing you hang from. Yeah,
so you're telling me I could download the

145
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:50.399
app theoretically, log into a TV
provider and then say I want to watch

146
00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:54.120
the javelin toss. Yeah, okay, and you should be able to do

147
00:09:54.279 --> 00:10:00.600
Yeah. Problems like you gotta if
to fast forward through like all the Usually

148
00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:03.440
they'll give you like a three hour
block and a bunch of sports happened in

149
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:05.960
this block, and if you want
javelin, you got to fast forward to

150
00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:09.000
this one. And so they don't
even that sucks, it's too much work.

151
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:11.480
Yeah yeah, I mean what you
really want is just like specific broken

152
00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:13.960
out things. I want to push
a button and watch a man throw javelin,

153
00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:16.080
yeah, and I want to push
another button and watch a women throw

154
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:20.480
no javelin. That's it. And
all I need to see are the finals.

155
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:24.000
I don't need to see like the
warm ups or the qualifying or yeah

156
00:10:24.120 --> 00:10:28.279
they filmed the warm ups. Yeah, they got a lot of time to

157
00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:31.440
fill. I feel bad, like
obviously, like to the people that are

158
00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:33.120
involved in the Olympics, it's this
huge thing and they train for a good

159
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:37.240
long time and go and do all
this stuff. But man, I just

160
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:43.480
could not care at all about So
I actually like diving into like the weird

161
00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:46.600
stuff, and that's kind of a
good way to do that. Like you

162
00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:50.639
do have to sift through a little
bit of like preamble, and you have

163
00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:54.279
to so there there are commercial breaks
also in those three hour things. But

164
00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:58.559
if you fast forward pass them,
there's no indicators anywhere. But if you

165
00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:01.279
think, like, oh, they
finished up an event, it'll probably be

166
00:11:01.679 --> 00:11:05.639
ten more minutes with the metal ceremony, and then it'll be an AD and

167
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:09.799
that's probably gonna be like seven minutes. So I want to go seventeen minutes

168
00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:13.559
more and then stop, and that
will be you know where the next event

169
00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:16.919
starts. So you have to guess. If you stop in the middle of

170
00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:20.240
an AD break, you get the
entire AD break. But it's it's great

171
00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:24.080
to like drill down to, oh, what's modern pentathlon. It's weird and

172
00:11:24.120 --> 00:11:28.679
awesome. That's five events. It's
five events, and it's it was created.

173
00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:31.399
I looked into the Wikipedia page.
It's created by this. Uh actually

174
00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:35.480
there's some there's some dispute here about
who actually created it. But I think

175
00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:43.159
we've landed on a Swedish in like
nineteen twelve who wanted to replicate. He

176
00:11:43.240 --> 00:11:48.960
wanted to replicate the old Greek,
ancient Greek pentathlon, which was five sports

177
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:54.279
that we're supposed to say, here's
the best soldier. So in the ancient

178
00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:56.720
one, it was like here's you
need to throw a spear, you need

179
00:11:56.720 --> 00:12:01.440
to run, you need and a
couple other things had a dude, right,

180
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:05.200
and so when how much blood can
you drink in forty five seconds?

181
00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:09.639
So when the modern one came out, it was like World War One time.

182
00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:11.440
And so the guy was like,
all right, the for the modern

183
00:12:11.480 --> 00:12:16.519
one, you need to be able
to I think it's run, swim,

184
00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:22.759
uh, shoot, shoot, ride
a horse and sword fight. Do you

185
00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:26.320
do you go straight from shooting to
on the horse to sword fighting? Is

186
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:30.639
there like a natural progression? You
can never leave the horse. You're on

187
00:12:30.679 --> 00:12:33.480
the horse the whole time. Apparently
people will fall off their horse and then

188
00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:35.679
you have like one hundred and twenty
seconds to get back on your horse and

189
00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:39.879
the clock doesn't stop. I got
to catch your horse and get back on

190
00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:41.600
it. The generous amount of time
to get back I don't know. I've

191
00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:45.519
never tried to catch horse. So
if you can't get back on the horse,

192
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:48.159
maybe you haven't a business. Meaning
in the Olympics. Maybe, Jeff,

193
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:52.320
you got to check out fencing though, like it has moved up to

194
00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:56.240
like tron level, like grid.
It just like a crazy tech around it

195
00:12:56.279 --> 00:13:00.360
now. Yeah, Like it's got
sensors all over the body, on the

196
00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:01.919
helmet as well, and it lights
up whenever you get a point, and

197
00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:07.639
just like the presentation, like there's
a big like you know, highlights on

198
00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:09.799
the strip that they come on and
it's just like boom boom boom, just

199
00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:13.039
like slowly lights up and they kind
of enter and it's really really cool.

200
00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:16.879
All right. Yeah, that one's
hard for me to watch though, because

201
00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:18.720
it looks like it's just like a
bunch of flailing and then someone might get

202
00:13:18.720 --> 00:13:22.679
a hit. But I guess people
some people are better at that than others,

203
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:26.240
So there is some got to look
for that light. That's what I

204
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:28.639
look for. I have no idea
if you know who's hitting who, but

205
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:31.799
you know, once that light comes
on, I'm like, yeah, yeah,

206
00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:35.000
yeah, good. There there was
one lady from I want to say,

207
00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:39.840
like South Korea, so they like
decorate their helmets as well, and

208
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:43.279
it had like the red and blue
like Yin Yang symbol and this this lady

209
00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:48.039
man whenever she scored a point would
just like screamed as guttural fucking yell.

210
00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:52.720
It was pretty amazing, really intense. It's a weird Olympics. Yeah.

211
00:13:52.759 --> 00:13:56.639
There was that Russian sharpshooter that had
the Witchard insignia on her eye. Patch.

212
00:13:56.240 --> 00:13:58.960
That's that's pretty cool. One thing
you can see that. No,

213
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:01.960
yes, just go google. The
guns and shooting are real weird. Yeah,

214
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:05.720
they're like they are power they're not, they're not. They don't look

215
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:07.759
like guns. The ones shotgun shooting
look like they I mean the shotguns,

216
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:13.480
but like the shooting ones looks like
kind of like paintball guns, like weird.

217
00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:20.759
And pellet guns were Olympics. Olympics. They're over ending ceremony. Bring

218
00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:22.879
on the laughs. The ending ceremony
where like the Prime Minister of Japan came

219
00:14:22.919 --> 00:14:28.440
out floating around dresses Mario out of
a pipe. So good, so good,

220
00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:33.120
that's amazing. Oh, many start
getting hives. I'm I'm planning a

221
00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:37.080
trip to Tokyo in December, and
I, yeah you are. I came

222
00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:43.440
by your desk and asked for a
bunch of tips on Japanese phrases and where

223
00:14:43.480 --> 00:14:46.840
to go in Kyoto and because we're
gonna do it day trip there. Kyoto

224
00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:50.399
is number one rule everywhere has just
eat everything. Okay, I can do

225
00:14:50.440 --> 00:14:54.360
that. Eat everything. Uh.
Kyoto has the better temples, a lot

226
00:14:54.399 --> 00:15:00.279
of hiking though, drink the water
the water temple. Okay, that's seems

227
00:15:00.279 --> 00:15:03.000
like a good place to do that. Gain it's real life. It's like

228
00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:05.519
I don't know, it's like some
monk found like the purest spring in Japan

229
00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:09.279
or whatever, and now people line
up to drink it and sometimes like dump

230
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:11.399
it over their heads and stuff.
It's really cool. Okay, but eat

231
00:15:11.440 --> 00:15:16.279
everything. Okay. Google Translate has
come a long way. I downloaded it

232
00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:20.840
like years ago, and now you
can not only can you take a picture

233
00:15:20.399 --> 00:15:24.000
of some other language and it'll translate
it on the fly for you, you

234
00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:28.759
can speak into it and it'll translate
it. Wow. Uh. And you

235
00:15:28.799 --> 00:15:35.799
can draw Japanese characters. Oh so
if you're sitting there looking at you draw

236
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:39.080
it and it'll translate that for you. Sometimes the speaking and if you type

237
00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:43.559
in a phrase, it's not accurate
though, okay, sometimes it translates because

238
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:46.320
Google Translate is very literal and there's
a lot of nuances to like Japanese sentence

239
00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:52.120
structure and and stuff. But I
think you'll get like people will understand what

240
00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:54.399
you're saying. Vocabulary stuff will probably
be fine. Yeah, or like what

241
00:15:54.519 --> 00:15:56.720
I need to know what the sign
says. Let make it the gist of

242
00:15:56.759 --> 00:16:00.039
it. Yeah. Yeah. Also
a lot of bathroom speakers over there.

243
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:03.519
Yeah, Tokyo. It was a
lot. Uh yeah, so you kind

244
00:16:03.559 --> 00:16:07.480
of don't really need to know a
lot of English signage for that matter.

245
00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:15.480
Yeah, definitely ages, what lego, what masca? That's what it is.

246
00:16:17.039 --> 00:16:18.919
Do you understanding? Yes, Yeah, that's the way. You just

247
00:16:18.919 --> 00:16:23.799
just in order of the L size
that's it. The L size SETI not

248
00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:26.120
a combo, it's a set.
How do you add a motherfucker to the

249
00:16:26.240 --> 00:16:32.120
LLL LLL if they have a LLL
get that because that's bigger than l okay

250
00:16:32.799 --> 00:16:38.960
big beru hm, yes, yeah, go for the Okay, that's one

251
00:16:40.080 --> 00:16:44.799
O big, that's big. Ok
Yeah, fantastic. I'm gonna have a

252
00:16:44.840 --> 00:16:48.639
great on put on a Japanese clinic
over here. Yeah, we're going in.

253
00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:53.080
Mary and I are leaving in September
for ts awesome. Are you book

254
00:16:53.159 --> 00:16:56.799
ending like doing a week before after
or we there's so much going on that

255
00:16:56.840 --> 00:17:00.519
we kind of can't. Like I'm
literally coming back from acts and then I

256
00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:03.680
have like two days and then I'm
off again. Yeah, so we're spending

257
00:17:03.680 --> 00:17:08.279
a couple of days she and I
in We're staying in Akihabra nice for like

258
00:17:08.359 --> 00:17:11.920
three days after the show, and
then we're there for like two days before

259
00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:14.920
the show. Okay, how about
it. I never thought about staying there

260
00:17:15.279 --> 00:17:19.359
like afterwards. No, No,
I mean like staying in Akihabra seemed like

261
00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:26.440
a place where there would be hotels, AIRBNBA. It's thought about in Japan

262
00:17:26.599 --> 00:17:29.160
is like really cheap. It's like
twenty dollars per night for like two people,

263
00:17:29.240 --> 00:17:33.920
Like we're spending no money on and
it's like doubles with like the old

264
00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:37.279
the old style apartments with like the
mats on the floor and like the sliding

265
00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:40.680
windoors and like it's great. Well, yeah, that's cool. Yeah,

266
00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:45.039
we always we always stayed in Shinjuku
most time. We say they're less Steman

267
00:17:45.119 --> 00:17:48.279
city. It's an anime, that's
the one. You wouldn't know it,

268
00:17:48.680 --> 00:17:53.319
and no, I would not Nope, moving on, Nope, anime on

269
00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:57.880
this podcast yet yet. All right, so move on from the world real

270
00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:03.000
sports to the world of video sport. All right, ultimate video sports.

271
00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:10.720
Crouch walking really wors your core?
Yeah, really working your robotically enhanced core

272
00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:14.599
lower body strength involves their gulk.
Yes, around the streets. It's big

273
00:18:14.599 --> 00:18:18.160
and progue. Yes, they were
talking about video There is a new Dax

274
00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:26.079
in the world. Chef speak upon
it. Well, yeah, they made

275
00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:33.319
a new yeah like five five years, five years almost five years yet and

276
00:18:33.400 --> 00:18:37.559
so they made a new Dax and
it is very much like the last das

277
00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:42.279
black and gold. So this not
not as black and gold. I like

278
00:18:42.359 --> 00:18:45.720
the black and Gold. I had
this kind of defined aesthetic that was like

279
00:18:47.319 --> 00:18:51.680
they took a stand on their aesthetic, which most games kind of. They

280
00:18:51.680 --> 00:18:52.920
went all the way with it,
Like there's that there's like a twelve minute

281
00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:56.839
recap video in the new one,
right, which is nothing but footage of

282
00:18:56.839 --> 00:18:59.720
the old one, and it is
nothing but black and goal. Holy crap.

283
00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:02.519
I don't know other colors in the
game. No, No, definitely

284
00:19:02.599 --> 00:19:04.640
not. It didn't allow them their
colors in this game. Yeah, yeah,

285
00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:10.400
yeah, there are more, there
are more us. There's more colors.

286
00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:15.720
Blue speak to the quantity, but
screen it's gray count or is that

287
00:19:15.759 --> 00:19:19.160
just it's certainly a color that's a
shade okay, okay, not a color

288
00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:23.319
what maybe some red, a little
bit red? Okay. Yeah, So

289
00:19:23.359 --> 00:19:27.400
they made Another Day of Sex.
It is like mechanically incredibly similar to the

290
00:19:27.400 --> 00:19:30.680
previous game, and I actually think
like story wise it is pretty similar to

291
00:19:32.359 --> 00:19:34.720
in that this is the weakest part
of the game, I think is the

292
00:19:34.720 --> 00:19:40.440
story in that they kind of just
don't really go anywhere with it. Like,

293
00:19:40.440 --> 00:19:44.960
there's a conflict that occurs you,
it occurs because of a larger thing

294
00:19:45.079 --> 00:19:47.880
going on, and by the end
of the game you have kind of solved

295
00:19:47.920 --> 00:19:52.000
the small scale actual conflict and sort
of saved the day, but you don't

296
00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:55.799
really know that much more about what's
really going on, which I think is

297
00:19:55.799 --> 00:20:02.599
is disappointing. But yeah, I
think that their story is it's very Yeah,

298
00:20:02.680 --> 00:20:04.079
it's a little flat. I think
the side missions and stuff like that

299
00:20:04.119 --> 00:20:07.640
are a little more interesting, a
little more human and that sort of stuff.

300
00:20:07.640 --> 00:20:08.720
But mechanically it's it's a very similar
game. You have a lot of

301
00:20:08.720 --> 00:20:12.960
the same types of abilities and augments
and things to do as you go around

302
00:20:14.680 --> 00:20:18.559
Prague. Mostly, yes, pretty
much all concentrated in Prague because the first

303
00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:22.920
game and you kind of like hops
back and forth. So Ocean Base,

304
00:20:23.079 --> 00:20:27.920
Yeah, back to Prague is bigger
than than the hubs were in the previous

305
00:20:27.960 --> 00:20:32.960
game, but it's you stay there. Basically. There are I guess three

306
00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:36.480
points in the story where you go
somewhere else. Uh, I think it's

307
00:20:36.519 --> 00:20:40.119
only three anyway, But it's like, hey, go out here, do

308
00:20:40.240 --> 00:20:42.039
this mission, Like this big kind
of end of act thing is going to

309
00:20:42.119 --> 00:20:45.519
happen out here, and then you're
going to come back to Prague and do

310
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:48.759
some more stuff around there, and
the city will have phased so now it's

311
00:20:48.839 --> 00:20:52.359
nighttime. There are different side quests
and that sort of stuff, and that's

312
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:56.079
raining and all that sort of thing. But yeah, Prague is a little

313
00:20:56.079 --> 00:20:59.119
bit bigger. I think, you
know, like I there's nothing as visually

314
00:21:00.440 --> 00:21:03.720
striking I think here as like uh, Hanshaw wasn't in the previous game.

315
00:21:03.759 --> 00:21:07.240
They had the kind of lower city
upper city thing like that was just a

316
00:21:07.279 --> 00:21:12.119
really cool idea that I think manifested
really well. So you know, I

317
00:21:12.200 --> 00:21:15.559
think that that Prague is a little
flat, but also it's a little bit

318
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:18.880
bigger, and it feels like a
pretty cohesive city of train stations that kind

319
00:21:18.920 --> 00:21:21.799
of link it together. So you're
kind of going between four or five different

320
00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:25.559
smaller sections of Prague. Okay,
this is not like open worldness, Yeah,

321
00:21:25.680 --> 00:21:27.039
not really. You're kind of I
mean, you're you're running around,

322
00:21:27.240 --> 00:21:30.640
you're you're doing your thing, but
at some point, like oh, I

323
00:21:30.640 --> 00:21:33.240
need to travel to the other districts
to do this thing because that's where this

324
00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:34.920
building is, and so you're getting
on the train, it's loading in the

325
00:21:34.920 --> 00:21:38.119
new area, and it's all it's
all relatively I've only played the first three

326
00:21:38.200 --> 00:21:41.759
hours or something. It's all relatively
constrained, though, you know. It's

327
00:21:41.799 --> 00:21:44.839
yeah, you're saying you're about halfway
through. I'm about halfway through the thing

328
00:21:44.920 --> 00:21:47.240
that I sort of I don't know
if you had the same problem. I

329
00:21:47.200 --> 00:21:51.240
feel like that overheating mechanic was just
didn't do anything where you have to like,

330
00:21:51.359 --> 00:21:55.680
you can't you can't equip. If
you over equip augmentations, you'll overheat

331
00:21:55.720 --> 00:21:59.200
and it'll make you shut down or
something. I like over equipped all the

332
00:21:59.200 --> 00:22:00.880
time, and I never really had, really, I never really had an

333
00:22:00.880 --> 00:22:04.559
experience where he just like, you
know, overheated. I feel like there

334
00:22:04.559 --> 00:22:07.559
was no weight to it. I
just got to that point. Is that

335
00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:11.880
basically just like a heat budget.
Yeah, you just have to keep it

336
00:22:11.079 --> 00:22:12.680
under It's like a load out thing
of like, yeah, if so,

337
00:22:12.920 --> 00:22:18.160
you you get I think it's a
good way for them to introduce new abilities

338
00:22:18.200 --> 00:22:19.480
to the character, right, it's
like, oh, you've got these secret

339
00:22:19.480 --> 00:22:22.240
fucking odds. That was a probably
awesome moment, Like it's right at the

340
00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:25.079
beginning of the game. But it's
like you wake up and they're like,

341
00:22:25.119 --> 00:22:26.359
holy shit, you have way more
oggs than you thought, Like where did

342
00:22:26.359 --> 00:22:30.000
these come from? Yeah? I
think that's that's a good reveal. But

343
00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:32.880
but like to equip those, Yeah, then you go over your heat budget

344
00:22:32.920 --> 00:22:37.279
and have to shut down existing systems
permanently to disable like some of your old

345
00:22:37.279 --> 00:22:41.319
style augments turn them back. Yeah, well so there's a there's a thing

346
00:22:41.319 --> 00:22:44.559
happens later. The thing happens later. So I didn't turn on any of

347
00:22:44.599 --> 00:22:48.359
those experimental augments until after I got
the thing that removes the limit. Uh

348
00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:52.000
you know, kind of late game
you get to a point where it's like,

349
00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:53.599
hey, if you want to totally
just go nuts on this stuff,

350
00:22:53.799 --> 00:22:57.519
you come here and we'll operate on
you and it'll be fine. So I

351
00:22:57.559 --> 00:23:02.359
just didn't need those abilities. Uh
So the the abilities that they actually grant

352
00:23:02.359 --> 00:23:06.160
you, the only one I found
kind of cool was remote hacking. It

353
00:23:06.160 --> 00:23:07.160
would be good to be like,
oh, this camera is in my way,

354
00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:10.799
so go away. But like the
stuff that's like, hey, here's

355
00:23:10.799 --> 00:23:14.559
this mid range non lethal takedown,
like I've got already, I already have

356
00:23:14.599 --> 00:23:17.640
ways to do that. The air
dash is kind of cool, but like

357
00:23:17.680 --> 00:23:19.200
it's it's a lot of cool stuff, but none of it ever ever felt

358
00:23:19.279 --> 00:23:22.880
essential to the way I was playing
the game. Are they just more abilities?

359
00:23:22.920 --> 00:23:26.759
Is there any distinction between the experimental
ones? There are more ability,

360
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:30.119
they're not like philosophically different than the
not really, It's like it's like weird

361
00:23:30.160 --> 00:23:34.599
stuff. Like there's an air dash
or the nano blade that you use in

362
00:23:34.640 --> 00:23:38.480
some of your takedown animations. You
can launch it like a rocket, uh

363
00:23:40.079 --> 00:23:44.839
or what else. There's the Tesla, which is the like the you can

364
00:23:44.880 --> 00:23:48.400
lock onto four guys that it's at
its most upgraded and take them all out

365
00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:55.960
non lethally immediately. What's the upgrade
or the augment the ease the most uh?

366
00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:59.400
You know. I ended up going
with mostly the passive augments. So

367
00:23:59.559 --> 00:24:03.880
I want to early on have access
to the entire game. I didn't want

368
00:24:03.920 --> 00:24:06.400
to be in this case where I'm
like, oh, look at that area

369
00:24:07.000 --> 00:24:11.880
gas. I haven't gotten the upgrade
that lets me go through gas areas,

370
00:24:11.920 --> 00:24:14.240
so I'm gonna have to find a
different way. I wanted to make sure

371
00:24:14.240 --> 00:24:18.359
that I was not locked out of
anything, so early game I went into

372
00:24:18.519 --> 00:24:22.880
the speech check stuff, which is
just like one point early on and I

373
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:30.319
went into the gas lungs, the
ability to walk through electricity, hacking upgrades,

374
00:24:30.559 --> 00:24:33.559
stealth upgrades to make the hacking more
successful. That's basically I wanted to

375
00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:36.920
read every laptop, do every like
like all that did you though, Just

376
00:24:37.000 --> 00:24:41.000
so there are fewer laptops in this
game then there were in the previous one,

377
00:24:41.119 --> 00:24:44.799
and I think generally the stuff is
a little bit better in terms of

378
00:24:44.839 --> 00:24:47.240
like, oh, I'm in this
person's apartment for this side quest, I'm

379
00:24:47.240 --> 00:24:49.960
gonna hack their laptop. Oh that's
interesting tidbits of information I guess about this

380
00:24:51.039 --> 00:24:53.240
Serial Killer thing. I guess the
emails and like the what it called the

381
00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:56.119
pocket secretary, the little data pad
stuff, Like, I guess that stuff's

382
00:24:56.160 --> 00:24:59.599
kind of interesting because it's all personal. But like the the amount of like

383
00:24:59.640 --> 00:25:02.759
EBO, some newspapers lying around like
I've just started buttoning, I didn't read.

384
00:25:02.799 --> 00:25:04.519
I didn't pick up most of the
newspapers because those kind of phase as

385
00:25:04.559 --> 00:25:08.519
the as you get further into the
game. But the pocket secretaries you would

386
00:25:08.559 --> 00:25:12.039
often have codes on the stuff that
you would want. Uh yeah. But

387
00:25:12.039 --> 00:25:15.839
the stuff there's more personal was the
stuff worth reading. The books you get

388
00:25:15.960 --> 00:25:18.480
XP for reading them, So I
would hit the button, read the first

389
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:19.559
page or glance the first page,
and then just go on. That's all

390
00:25:19.599 --> 00:25:22.519
like good flavor, backstories stuff.
I got the state of the world,

391
00:25:22.599 --> 00:25:26.599
some of the world buildings. Like
generally the game feels like it takes suffle

392
00:25:26.599 --> 00:25:30.440
of it seriously for for what they're
trying to do with all the stuff with

393
00:25:30.480 --> 00:25:33.200
the Illuminati and everything. Yeah,
so I mean like, look, that's

394
00:25:33.240 --> 00:25:36.960
that's what DASX always was, right, I guess so, and so that

395
00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:40.839
played a lot better in two thousand
totally was like when you get to a

396
00:25:40.839 --> 00:25:42.720
point where you got Adam just going
you mean the Illuminati, I just I

397
00:25:42.759 --> 00:25:45.359
couldn't stop laughing. It was just
like, this is the dumbest thing ever,

398
00:25:45.640 --> 00:25:49.279
Like that he's saying those words out
loud, uh in a world that

399
00:25:49.319 --> 00:25:53.279
has so many you in a real
world where we have so many deeper,

400
00:25:53.359 --> 00:25:56.680
more real conspiracy theory, Like maybe
maybe if there were some kind of Alex

401
00:25:56.759 --> 00:26:00.759
Jones surrogate in this game kind of
the radio, I mean, they're full

402
00:26:00.839 --> 00:26:06.039
on right wing fucking conspiracy radio throughout
this game. Whenever you turned it on,

403
00:26:06.079 --> 00:26:07.240
It's like we gotta get rid of
the ogs, because that's the central

404
00:26:07.279 --> 00:26:11.839
thing, is the racism between the
natural, the naturals and the ogs,

405
00:26:12.480 --> 00:26:17.240
which I don't think they the clinks
clinks. I believe it is the derogatory

406
00:26:17.799 --> 00:26:25.559
that's a good dumb fake racism slur
or robot people. I guess, yeah,

407
00:26:25.880 --> 00:26:27.319
it felt that stuff felt a little
distant to me though, because like

408
00:26:27.359 --> 00:26:30.759
it initially, like didn't they portray
oggs is like something only the super wealthy,

409
00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:33.799
like the elites, have access to
know. So, I mean,

410
00:26:33.839 --> 00:26:36.039
if you think about it, the
people that were getting augmented were people that

411
00:26:36.039 --> 00:26:37.559
had to go work in factories,
you know, like there's there's definitely like

412
00:26:37.599 --> 00:26:41.799
a lower end of like this corporation
is paying for me to get robot arms,

413
00:26:41.799 --> 00:26:47.759
okay, so for them or lift
stuff for them. And now that

414
00:26:47.880 --> 00:26:52.839
the incident from the previous game has
happened, like now the tension has bubbled

415
00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:56.359
over, and now here are these
people that they never asked for this obviously

416
00:26:56.400 --> 00:27:00.920
and they are now being discriminated against
and stuff like that. So I think

417
00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:06.240
there's the setup for a really interesting
story about racism as it relates to people

418
00:27:06.279 --> 00:27:11.039
with robot arms versus people that don't
but the game for all of it's like

419
00:27:11.160 --> 00:27:15.039
pre release hype and stuff around,
Like I mean they literally said the words

420
00:27:15.079 --> 00:27:18.640
mechanical apartheid. Yeah. Yeah,
Like the game has the depth of a

421
00:27:18.960 --> 00:27:21.359
like a rip from the headlines episode
of Law and Order, you know,

422
00:27:21.400 --> 00:27:23.920
by comparison, you know, they
don't they address that stuff in the most

423
00:27:23.960 --> 00:27:27.319
surface level way possible, and really
they just kind of go nowhere with it.

424
00:27:27.400 --> 00:27:32.440
So I think that's that's sad,
because I think there's a more interesting

425
00:27:32.480 --> 00:27:34.480
story they could have told if they
had just been willing to get into it

426
00:27:34.519 --> 00:27:37.000
a little more. Yeah. Yeah, it's a it's a good game.

427
00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:40.960
I just don't think it says anything. And I feel like we were all

428
00:27:40.960 --> 00:27:42.240
expecting it to say something, and
that's like on us, that's on on

429
00:27:42.359 --> 00:27:47.359
them. But yeah, yeah,
I think what's there is fine, and

430
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:51.160
it's you know, there's like the
missed opportunities that I think the story has

431
00:27:51.240 --> 00:27:53.079
nothing to say and doesn't really go
anywhere, even if even if you don't

432
00:27:53.079 --> 00:27:56.519
care about that aspect of it,
it's like, oh, by the end

433
00:27:56.559 --> 00:27:57.759
of the game, I found myself
going like, man, I wish that

434
00:27:57.799 --> 00:28:03.599
this actually like went plays and did
things with the overall conspiracy that it just

435
00:28:03.640 --> 00:28:06.920
totally doesn't. But I think it
plays well. I like most of the

436
00:28:06.960 --> 00:28:08.759
voice acting. I think the guy
that's your boss of the task Force I

437
00:28:08.759 --> 00:28:14.440
think is really bad. But but
everybody else I think is really good.

438
00:28:14.559 --> 00:28:17.400
I think it's a nice looking game. Yeah, there's you know, little

439
00:28:17.440 --> 00:28:18.839
bits of pieces where I wish it
didn't cut the black Whenever you did a

440
00:28:18.839 --> 00:28:22.519
takedown, it's like you're playing an
FMV game or something. It's like I

441
00:28:22.599 --> 00:28:25.799
pushed a button and triggered some cut
scene and now I'm back in the action.

442
00:28:26.039 --> 00:28:29.000
Like that stuff I wish was cleaner. And I think their their additional

443
00:28:29.000 --> 00:28:33.519
modes, like the breach mode is
like this VR mission thing of like going

444
00:28:33.559 --> 00:28:37.680
into complete these missions and it's got
leaderboards and online times and all this other

445
00:28:37.680 --> 00:28:41.440
stuff like that stuff like they try
to inject some bits of other story stuff

446
00:28:41.480 --> 00:28:45.720
into that, but I think that
removed from the overall story of like what's

447
00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:49.759
Adam Jensen gonna do next, Like
the idea of just that gameplay on its

448
00:28:49.759 --> 00:28:52.119
own, I don't think it holds
up as well, or at least like

449
00:28:52.160 --> 00:28:56.759
I have zero interest in playing just
like Stealth Action for the sake of Stealth

450
00:28:56.799 --> 00:29:00.920
Action. That's not. That's not
fun to me. You describe a typical

451
00:29:00.000 --> 00:29:04.119
encounter and the options you would have, Sure, Yeah, I haven't seen

452
00:29:06.039 --> 00:29:08.000
either day sex came in a long
time. It's it's got a cover system,

453
00:29:08.039 --> 00:29:11.599
so you know, you're you're kind
of It depends on how you're going

454
00:29:11.599 --> 00:29:15.960
about things. Usually they add every
single option to every single thing because they

455
00:29:15.000 --> 00:29:18.599
don't know how you've spect and you
have to be able to complete it.

456
00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:21.279
Whether you're going to have to come
in through a great or whether you're going

457
00:29:21.319 --> 00:29:25.519
to hack your way in some gas
yeah, or whether there's some gas here

458
00:29:25.720 --> 00:29:27.720
or you know. Yeah, They've
got multiple ways to attack every scenario,

459
00:29:27.839 --> 00:29:32.960
but not always in a way that
feels supernatural or natural. I guess I

460
00:29:33.000 --> 00:29:37.680
should say not supernatural. So depending
on how you're going you could come at

461
00:29:37.720 --> 00:29:40.079
things a handful of different ways.
If there's a turret in the room,

462
00:29:40.119 --> 00:29:44.319
you could find the security terminal hack
that if you've upgraded appropriately, you could

463
00:29:44.359 --> 00:29:47.599
turn the turret to then start shooting
at the guys that are in that room.

464
00:29:48.119 --> 00:29:52.920
Uh. Usually I just walked around
and did the like non lethal melee

465
00:29:52.960 --> 00:29:56.440
takedown, and then if there was
anyone left, I had a stun gun

466
00:29:56.440 --> 00:30:00.319
that would also non lethally take people
down, So that system is extremely forgiving,

467
00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:03.799
and the you know, like they
can turn and see you, and

468
00:30:03.839 --> 00:30:06.359
as long as you are in the
process of getting them as they are seeing

469
00:30:06.359 --> 00:30:08.480
you, they're not going to raise
an alarm. So it's really forgiving stealth.

470
00:30:08.480 --> 00:30:11.839
Even when they do see you,
it doesn't matter generally speaking, you're

471
00:30:11.880 --> 00:30:14.640
just like, well, I'm gonna
hide here or I'm gonna go here.

472
00:30:14.759 --> 00:30:18.960
It does the splinter cell style like
silhouette of where they last detected you things,

473
00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:22.200
so you can see that you've kind
of broken visual contact and then just

474
00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:26.279
go hide a counter. You know, there's a metal gear style, just

475
00:30:26.519 --> 00:30:30.759
the percentage meter fills alert stand down, everything's back to normal. You're walking

476
00:30:30.799 --> 00:30:33.079
up behind people and stagnant stabbing them
again. Find that boring just doing the

477
00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:37.400
takedown stuff all through the game?
Or I mean I was not in it.

478
00:30:37.480 --> 00:30:40.680
I mean, yeah, you have
more options. I think everyone's gonna

479
00:30:40.680 --> 00:30:42.640
play it a little differently, but
I suspect that a lot of people will

480
00:30:42.759 --> 00:30:45.839
kind of stick to the same thing. I could have turned invisible and walked

481
00:30:45.839 --> 00:30:49.400
past them. I could have I
guess having that option, Like do you

482
00:30:49.519 --> 00:30:55.000
get bored? Like, yeah,
yeah, I could gas grenades to cause

483
00:30:55.039 --> 00:30:56.400
them to pass out. I could
have just shot them all in the face,

484
00:30:57.720 --> 00:31:02.319
you know, like you have all
those sorts of options that you're just

485
00:31:02.319 --> 00:31:04.079
did you want to do non lethal
for any particular reason. I just I

486
00:31:04.119 --> 00:31:07.759
just didn't see a need to kill. I think you get more XP they

487
00:31:08.039 --> 00:31:11.559
they've bounced that out. That was
one of the criticisms of the previous games

488
00:31:11.559 --> 00:31:15.480
that you know, if you were
if you were not killing everyone, there

489
00:31:15.480 --> 00:31:18.119
were things you were missing out because
there there you get a bunch of little

490
00:31:18.119 --> 00:31:19.920
pop ups, like every time you
take a guy out, he'd be like,

491
00:31:19.920 --> 00:31:25.000
oh, you get ten points for
Marksman, twenty points for merciful or

492
00:31:25.039 --> 00:31:26.880
whatever. Like. You know.
So I played through that game and I

493
00:31:27.640 --> 00:31:33.960
killed a few people here and there
because things happen. But it doesn't seem

494
00:31:33.000 --> 00:31:37.119
like it would be that difficult to
get through that game killing no one.

495
00:31:38.359 --> 00:31:41.359
Uh. And that's something that's like, yeah, and you don't. It's

496
00:31:41.400 --> 00:31:45.680
not even that meticulous. It's just
tapping B and using the stun gun instead

497
00:31:45.680 --> 00:31:48.160
of holding B and using a rifle. I had. I had a situation

498
00:31:48.160 --> 00:31:52.000
where two guys were coming after me
because I tripped an alarm and I peeked

499
00:31:52.039 --> 00:31:55.319
around and stun gun the guy in
front, and the guy behind him just

500
00:31:55.400 --> 00:31:57.920
kept wailing with his shotgun through the
guy. Yeah, and I couldn't.

501
00:31:57.920 --> 00:32:00.160
I never ran over there because firm
if it had killed him or not,

502
00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:04.240
if the enemies can friendly fire each, I don't know. Uh. The

503
00:32:04.400 --> 00:32:07.400
that game has a really great shotgun, you know, in a world in

504
00:32:07.400 --> 00:32:09.920
which most video game shotguns are terrible. Uh A, you can put a

505
00:32:09.920 --> 00:32:14.799
silencer on it, which is always
a good dumb things. Yeah that's ridiculous.

506
00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:17.759
But it's got a tight enough spread
and does enough damage that Like when

507
00:32:17.759 --> 00:32:20.440
I when I got to a point
where it's all right, I'm just gonna

508
00:32:20.440 --> 00:32:22.160
finish this game, and I'm just
I started mowing people down in the bank

509
00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:28.839
of all places. Uh that that
was the weapon of choice for sure.

510
00:32:28.880 --> 00:32:30.960
But it's got an upgrade system around
the weapons, like if you want to

511
00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:32.960
engage with the weapons and go crazy
on that stuff, Like there's like a

512
00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:37.440
crafting system there to upgrade each weapon
potential crisis, like you cut to it's

513
00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:42.240
got that like bolt stuff onto Yeah. Yeah, so like that stuff is

514
00:32:42.720 --> 00:32:45.200
fairly well fleshed out. Like I
feel like they've they've added a lot of

515
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:49.960
options around things to where like,
yeah, if you want to be non

516
00:32:50.079 --> 00:32:52.759
lethal with flourish, Uh, the
typhoon can be non lethal if you so

517
00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:57.359
choose. The Tesla upgrade is that
thing like I was talking about some one

518
00:32:57.359 --> 00:32:59.920
of the new things where you can
kind of just go and lock onto four

519
00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:01.319
guys, hit the button, they
all got zapped, they all fall over.

520
00:33:02.519 --> 00:33:06.279
So you can get more creative with
that stuff if you want, and

521
00:33:06.480 --> 00:33:08.480
you can be splashy and spend all
your energy and do all that stuff.

522
00:33:08.599 --> 00:33:14.160
I usually just ended up skulking up
behind people and hitting the B button over

523
00:33:14.200 --> 00:33:16.440
and over again. Uh. And
I still had a good time with that.

524
00:33:16.559 --> 00:33:20.440
But you said that it actually like
cuts away, like it fades the

525
00:33:20.440 --> 00:33:25.039
black and then it's good. It's
a good half second cut, cuts up

526
00:33:25.079 --> 00:33:30.039
on one of a handful of animations. Interesting, and then it does not

527
00:33:30.119 --> 00:33:32.680
cut back to black, and then
it kind of pulls back into first person.

528
00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:36.000
It's kind of weird presentation. Yeah, yeah, it's got to be

529
00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:37.599
a load or something right that wouldn't
do that. And I know, I

530
00:33:37.640 --> 00:33:42.720
think it's that they came up with
their animations and didn't want to come up

531
00:33:42.720 --> 00:33:46.119
with you know, like I bet
like to actually have dynamic animations based on

532
00:33:46.160 --> 00:33:51.759
where you are really standing in the
world, probably teleports you to wherever the

533
00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:54.400
animation. Also yeah, also I
bet transitioning out of first person to show

534
00:33:54.440 --> 00:33:58.559
that animation would look really weird.
Yeah, so that's just an easy shortcut.

535
00:33:58.640 --> 00:34:00.039
But I also do I don't.
Yeah, I think that the solution

536
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:04.400
they've come up with, I don't
think it looks great. I wish that

537
00:34:04.440 --> 00:34:07.079
they had they had done a little
more around that stuff. Some of the

538
00:34:07.079 --> 00:34:09.400
presentational aspects feel a little bit half
baked to me. They feel like they

539
00:34:09.440 --> 00:34:13.719
were The last game cuts a lot
of stuff, you know, Like I

540
00:34:13.719 --> 00:34:19.079
played it mostly on the PC.
Runs fine there. Console versions are acceptable.

541
00:34:19.480 --> 00:34:22.199
Uh, you know, they don't
run as well as my PC can

542
00:34:22.280 --> 00:34:25.440
run it, obviously, but they
generally look pretty much fine. The Xbox

543
00:34:25.480 --> 00:34:30.480
One version, I think like there's
just a bit of grime on it that

544
00:34:30.519 --> 00:34:34.119
I didn't see on the PS four
version, where like some text feels a

545
00:34:34.119 --> 00:34:37.800
little weird, Like some of the
text reads a little weird. We're gonna

546
00:34:37.800 --> 00:34:40.239
play, We're gonna do a quick
look. We're gonna play the Xbox One

547
00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:45.199
version for that, just because that's
where the save is, where my save

548
00:34:45.320 --> 00:34:47.119
is at the best point to do
a quick look and yeah that one.

549
00:34:49.239 --> 00:34:52.679
Yeah, some of the menus look
a little weird low res, like the

550
00:34:52.719 --> 00:34:54.440
text is not as readable as as
it is on some other platforms, which

551
00:34:54.480 --> 00:34:58.639
is a strange thing. But if
I, if I have one nit pick

552
00:34:58.719 --> 00:35:00.519
with the stealth in that game,
it is that I'm not used to stealth

553
00:35:00.519 --> 00:35:05.039
games, where like every one of
my stealth goodies requires some kind of resource

554
00:35:05.199 --> 00:35:07.679
right in so like even the melee
takedowns take like a pretty good chunk of

555
00:35:07.679 --> 00:35:10.920
your energy bar which does not recharge
on its own. So it does,

556
00:35:12.039 --> 00:35:14.800
but only if it's if it's all
the way empty, it will recharge up

557
00:35:14.800 --> 00:35:16.079
to that first line, which is
enough for one take too, right,

558
00:35:16.280 --> 00:35:20.039
right, so you you do the
takedown, you back off, I have

559
00:35:20.039 --> 00:35:22.239
to way go do another takedown,
you back down, Like I it's I

560
00:35:22.239 --> 00:35:25.320
feel like skittish or on edge that
I don't have like a fallback option,

561
00:35:25.440 --> 00:35:29.159
Like yes, I've got plenty of
stun gun amo right, Like yes,

562
00:35:29.199 --> 00:35:31.480
so I've got a couple of consumables
to recharge my energy but like yes,

563
00:35:31.639 --> 00:35:35.159
i feel like I'm not quite ready
to charge in every time I want to

564
00:35:35.199 --> 00:35:37.840
do something. Yeah, because like
I don't know how long it'll be before

565
00:35:37.840 --> 00:35:39.679
I get more. Right, So, there are cells or whatever. There

566
00:35:39.719 --> 00:35:43.960
are plenty of biosells in the game. You can also craft them, and

567
00:35:44.679 --> 00:35:49.679
also there's an upgrade on the tree
for multi multiple takedowns, so that's you

568
00:35:49.679 --> 00:35:52.159
can hit b and kill two people
at once if you like. That was

569
00:35:52.199 --> 00:35:55.159
pretty handy for that style of play
as well. But yeah, you'd run

570
00:35:55.199 --> 00:35:59.320
into a few cases where like,
yeah, going around the bank and trying

571
00:35:59.360 --> 00:36:01.559
to turn off all these cameras so
I can get upstairs and do something like

572
00:36:01.639 --> 00:36:05.199
Yeah, it was going to take
forever to do that. So at some

573
00:36:05.199 --> 00:36:07.119
point I'm like, oh, this
camera saw me, So I'm just gonna

574
00:36:07.119 --> 00:36:08.480
pull out the shotgun and this is
how we're doing the rest of this mission.

575
00:36:08.639 --> 00:36:14.039
It's fine, there's an achievement in
there for not killing anyone, but

576
00:36:14.119 --> 00:36:16.480
I did not get it. That
sounds lagorious, yeah, yeah, because

577
00:36:16.480 --> 00:36:22.679
that's I mean, honestly, like
so, a lot of people had criticisms

578
00:36:22.679 --> 00:36:27.280
of the boss fights in the previous
game that they were just kind of half

579
00:36:27.320 --> 00:36:30.320
baked, and if you were specking
in a very non lethal kind of way,

580
00:36:30.119 --> 00:36:34.320
it was very difficult to get into
some of those fights, like you

581
00:36:34.320 --> 00:36:37.360
just didn't have the tools at your
disposal to take those guys down as easily

582
00:36:37.400 --> 00:36:43.719
as you would if you were just
murdering them. This game seems to solve

583
00:36:43.719 --> 00:36:45.719
the boss fight problem by just getting
rid of most of the boss fights,

584
00:36:45.840 --> 00:36:50.719
which is, yeah, it's a
little it's a little crazy, but also

585
00:36:50.920 --> 00:36:53.480
so that left me at the end
of the game where there's a boss fight

586
00:36:54.239 --> 00:36:59.119
feeling like, oh, man,
like I haven't had enough time playing this

587
00:36:59.159 --> 00:37:02.119
game as a shooter to feel super
comfortable with the shooting, and now here

588
00:37:02.159 --> 00:37:07.159
I am being forced being forced to
do this shooting. So there again,

589
00:37:07.199 --> 00:37:12.360
there's an achievement for not killing anyone, so I assumed you could. They're

590
00:37:12.400 --> 00:37:16.800
there. Yeah, the text specifies
like bosses count two, so I assume

591
00:37:16.840 --> 00:37:21.000
that just means gas, grenades or
your other non lethal options because you have

592
00:37:21.000 --> 00:37:24.360
like a trank gun and all this
other stuff that you could be using.

593
00:37:27.360 --> 00:37:30.280
I didn't use any of that.
I threw grenades at him and shot him

594
00:37:30.280 --> 00:37:32.679
in the head with a sniper riffle
a bunch that usually works, and then

595
00:37:32.679 --> 00:37:37.639
he fell over and that was the
game and scene and scene. Yeah it's

596
00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:43.199
a yeah, So yeah, I
feel like they didn't necessarily like actually solve

597
00:37:43.239 --> 00:37:45.280
the boss fight problem as cleanly as
they could have. They just kind of

598
00:37:45.400 --> 00:37:52.480
just pulled most of that stuff outs. You know, I always wanted to

599
00:37:52.480 --> 00:37:54.920
go the speech check option for a
lot of that sort of stuff. Anyway,

600
00:37:55.320 --> 00:37:59.199
Uh, so I was talking my
way around conflict, so that I

601
00:37:59.199 --> 00:38:01.119
should I should actually specified I talked
my way around a lot of conflict in

602
00:38:01.159 --> 00:38:05.239
that game. So there's always the
potential that some of those could be things

603
00:38:05.239 --> 00:38:07.920
you would consider a boss fight.
But I just said like, hey,

604
00:38:07.960 --> 00:38:09.480
what's up man, and they were
like I'm cool, and yeah, you

605
00:38:09.519 --> 00:38:12.679
are with you? And then I
just yeah, I just kept walking.

606
00:38:12.760 --> 00:38:15.480
So, uh, did you date
them afterward? Yeah, there's a whole

607
00:38:15.559 --> 00:38:20.519
dating mini game in there. You
can romance anything in the game, anything

608
00:38:20.679 --> 00:38:23.920
anything, build yours link. Yeah. Make you take a shower early on

609
00:38:24.000 --> 00:38:27.159
in that game. They don't actually
make you. They don't make you,

610
00:38:27.239 --> 00:38:29.480
but they recommend that you do,
and then you go do it. And

611
00:38:29.480 --> 00:38:31.599
then there's cut scene of Jensen taking
a shower even though he's mostly metal.

612
00:38:31.679 --> 00:38:37.039
And then I started to wonder how
much of Jensen is still Jensen. The

613
00:38:37.159 --> 00:38:40.880
questions they ask they don't make it
clear how much of him is still there,

614
00:38:42.800 --> 00:38:44.840
so I don't even know if he's
got a robot, but I don't

615
00:38:44.880 --> 00:38:47.719
know if he's quite kind of Yeah, cool, that's what I'm saying.

616
00:38:47.760 --> 00:38:51.480
I don't know. That's what fan
art or like, you know, hacking

617
00:38:51.480 --> 00:38:54.280
the camera to pull out and let
you see that stuff. I'm sure.

618
00:38:54.480 --> 00:38:59.280
I'm sure those questions will be answered. That model must be source. Filmmaker

619
00:38:59.360 --> 00:39:00.800
will answer questions. I'm good to
get in there and spend the camera.

620
00:39:00.880 --> 00:39:06.199
Adam Jensen and a couple of characters
from Overwatch getting it on. I'm sure

621
00:39:06.239 --> 00:39:08.239
that exists right by now, right
the games went out for like twelve hours

622
00:39:08.199 --> 00:39:12.599
exactly. Yeah, so yes,
probably somebody's gotten a Double seventy six and

623
00:39:12.599 --> 00:39:16.559
Adam Jensen getting real close. I've
been shipping those hunts. Yeah, the

624
00:39:16.639 --> 00:39:20.920
ship it yea all right new ds
X, Yeah it's out there. It's

625
00:39:20.920 --> 00:39:23.519
good. Yeah. You guys were
passing this energy bar back and forth.

626
00:39:24.639 --> 00:39:28.639
Happened to grab it from you briefly
and look at the back of it.

627
00:39:30.559 --> 00:39:32.920
I got this from the internet.
Okay, I'm just gonna read under ingredients.

628
00:39:32.920 --> 00:39:39.239
There's a subheading allergy information. If
you have a crustacean shellfish allergy,

629
00:39:39.280 --> 00:39:44.719
you may be allergic to crickets.
I did not know. I actually do

630
00:39:44.800 --> 00:39:50.760
have that allergy, and I was
really looking forward to want to we can

631
00:39:50.800 --> 00:39:52.880
test it to see if it actually
does affect me. Your head like blows

632
00:39:52.960 --> 00:39:57.440
up, my throat closes up if
yeh, see if you were able to,

633
00:39:57.719 --> 00:40:01.639
we don't have an eppin you want
sure? Yeah, I don't know.

634
00:40:01.960 --> 00:40:06.920
So we were talking about the quest
for the perfect protein bar earlier.

635
00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:08.760
I had a really bad one this
morning that really threw off my day.

636
00:40:09.039 --> 00:40:13.519
What did it have? Crickets?
No, it was called like power crunch,

637
00:40:13.559 --> 00:40:15.559
and it tasted like the bastard child
of like a kit cat and like

638
00:40:15.599 --> 00:40:22.360
the crap you find in the back
of your grandparents drawers. All right,

639
00:40:22.440 --> 00:40:25.280
two hundred calories of trash. It's
very trashy uh And I saw this and

640
00:40:25.639 --> 00:40:29.159
what possessed you to buy a cricket
for First of all, do you think,

641
00:40:29.239 --> 00:40:31.880
Jeff, it just tastes like any
another one of these things? Yeah?

642
00:40:32.559 --> 00:40:37.320
Yeah, kind of mealy M.
I think this is They came with

643
00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:39.920
a bunch of different flavors. This
is the cocoa flavor. I like the

644
00:40:39.920 --> 00:40:43.760
banana one as well, and blueberry. It's fine, is it? Like

645
00:40:43.840 --> 00:40:46.960
dried bananas. It tastes kind of
grimy. And yeah, it's got it's

646
00:40:47.320 --> 00:40:51.119
like coconut in there. It's got
the mouth feel of some coconut. Yes,

647
00:40:51.239 --> 00:40:54.400
there is coconut. Yeah, okay, I hate coconut I just I

648
00:40:54.440 --> 00:40:59.000
don't like them. I like coconut
water, coconut milk. I like coconut

649
00:40:59.000 --> 00:41:01.079
water, and I like coconut,
but like coconut flavored stuff, especially in

650
00:41:01.119 --> 00:41:07.000
candies. I've had my cricket in
the past. I might die, Okay,

651
00:41:06.719 --> 00:41:10.320
I don't know. I just heard
about it and I really like the

652
00:41:10.320 --> 00:41:15.519
movie Snow Piercer. Oh yeah,
so I thought i'd try it. It's

653
00:41:15.559 --> 00:41:20.159
kind of expensive. Bugs. Bugs
are hella green as an energy source.

654
00:41:20.320 --> 00:41:23.440
Yeah, they don't produce a lot
of methane. Apparently extremely ecologically friendly.

655
00:41:24.119 --> 00:41:27.760
It's it's called it's called exo.
If you want to check it out exo

656
00:41:27.840 --> 00:41:31.800
dot ceo asn't like exoskeleton. Oh
man, that makes it weirder. I

657
00:41:31.800 --> 00:41:36.920
didn't think about that. Oh yeah, it's like they did not sponsor this

658
00:41:36.960 --> 00:41:38.199
in any way though. Don't pay
me or anything. I mean, it

659
00:41:38.320 --> 00:41:44.840
tastes good. The texture is kind
of like a dense brown. The crickets

660
00:41:44.840 --> 00:41:47.519
in it, maybe a little bitter
or I just been into something word alright,

661
00:41:47.679 --> 00:41:52.840
well on that mode, that's a
fingernail. There's a good for you.

662
00:41:52.840 --> 00:42:00.599
Don't worry. H cricket my teeth
now locally sourced crickets. Uh,

663
00:42:00.679 --> 00:42:04.400
Jeff, Hi have you played another
good video games? Uh? Good video

664
00:42:04.440 --> 00:42:07.639
games? May tho. I don't
know anything of note you know what.

665
00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:10.719
I have not played a lot of
it, but I do want to play

666
00:42:10.719 --> 00:42:14.719
more of it. I will just
say Bound, yes, yes, I

667
00:42:14.840 --> 00:42:20.079
wanted to bring that up. Bound
looks incredible. It is like flabbergastingly good,

668
00:42:20.199 --> 00:42:23.159
like holy crap. And just the
way the animation translates like your movement,

669
00:42:23.159 --> 00:42:27.920
The way it translates animation like you're
you're dancing around this world is how

670
00:42:27.960 --> 00:42:30.440
do you? Is it connect or
what? No? No, you are

671
00:42:30.199 --> 00:42:35.960
you are platform It's it's a third
person platformer, but all the movement is

672
00:42:36.000 --> 00:42:39.400
in dance. We should we should
say the actual gameplay like pretty simple jump

673
00:42:39.559 --> 00:42:45.079
it is. There is art around
this that looks just the style of it

674
00:42:45.119 --> 00:42:47.079
is really so. It seems I
don't know for a fact, but they

675
00:42:47.159 --> 00:42:52.880
must have motion captured this. It
looks incredibly realistic. Special looking. Yeah,

676
00:42:52.920 --> 00:42:54.039
and you kind of you kind of
dance your way out of problems,

677
00:42:54.079 --> 00:42:57.559
like when you get attacked by the
Scots I do in real life. Yes,

678
00:42:58.159 --> 00:43:01.760
you're just break into a routine.
I just tuck my way out.

679
00:43:02.440 --> 00:43:06.880
I mean the I mean the looking
setting are like very abstract. Like it's

680
00:43:06.880 --> 00:43:12.199
a lot of weird geometric shapes flying
around you and around and the level building

681
00:43:12.239 --> 00:43:15.440
itself as you're walking forward onto it
and stuff. Also, they do this

682
00:43:15.480 --> 00:43:17.440
amazing thing where when you walk behind
walls, instead of just like making the

683
00:43:17.440 --> 00:43:22.320
wall transparent, they will like deconstruct
the wall, like the polygons will like

684
00:43:22.360 --> 00:43:25.440
it rode as you walk behind stuff, touch and then reform as you It

685
00:43:25.480 --> 00:43:30.159
looks really it's beautiful. It's very
striking. Look at the game is incredible.

686
00:43:30.079 --> 00:43:34.159
But yeah, like you're constantly getting
assaulted by I don't know, like

687
00:43:34.199 --> 00:43:38.760
swirling energy pattern and stuff, and
you dance. But that's when you dance

688
00:43:38.880 --> 00:43:43.679
great, Like you literally are like
this is basically Michael Jacks kay, yeah,

689
00:43:43.679 --> 00:43:46.800
like you you literally start are you
saving children as not as yet?

690
00:43:46.880 --> 00:43:50.360
I mean, look, I don't
want to spoil the end of the game,

691
00:43:50.400 --> 00:43:52.880
Okay, no, very short,
Yeah, yeah, I guess it's

692
00:43:52.960 --> 00:43:55.920
it sounds like it's not that long. I guys, I have not played

693
00:43:55.960 --> 00:43:59.679
that much of it, but but
yeah, it's it's interesting because they let

694
00:43:59.679 --> 00:44:02.800
you pick the levels in any order, right, and it seems geared toward

695
00:44:02.920 --> 00:44:06.880
replaying stuff because they're like there's a
trophy for speed running every level in the

696
00:44:06.880 --> 00:44:08.840
game. Okay, so they seem
geared toward having you go back and like

697
00:44:08.880 --> 00:44:13.519
trying to dance very quickly through stuff
basically. But I don't know that I

698
00:44:13.519 --> 00:44:15.039
need that, but yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, if you're

699
00:44:15.039 --> 00:44:17.480
coming up with trophies for a game
like that, that is it's neat that

700
00:44:17.519 --> 00:44:22.119
it's largely meant to be experienced yeah
once, but it's just it is so

701
00:44:22.199 --> 00:44:25.320
striking, like just the way that
it presents itself. There's a quick look

702
00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:28.599
up on the site right now and
see more of that. They did that

703
00:44:28.599 --> 00:44:32.360
out the least likely of people to
play Bounds. I think Dan checked about

704
00:44:32.440 --> 00:44:37.280
what's platforms. It's just four.
It's it's like a it's one of their

705
00:44:37.280 --> 00:44:40.199
play games. It's like the like
they're weird kind of successor to summ of

706
00:44:40.239 --> 00:44:45.599
Arcade, right yeah play yes,
yes, and no similarity to bound In

707
00:44:45.800 --> 00:44:47.719
No, No, okay, No, the iOS game, which is also

708
00:44:47.719 --> 00:44:50.800
about dancing, right, also a
bad day. I don't know. That's

709
00:44:50.840 --> 00:44:52.400
quite on the side. Brad dancing
together. Oh god, that's right.

710
00:44:53.039 --> 00:44:59.199
Don't watch that but watch Nope,
nope, nope no, but that's that's

711
00:44:59.320 --> 00:45:00.559
uh, that's more or less it. I don't know. I messed around

712
00:45:00.599 --> 00:45:05.960
with some other stuff that I think
we'll probably talk about next week. Attack

713
00:45:06.000 --> 00:45:09.400
on Titan and yeah, I'm playing
that too. Yeah. Anime games,

714
00:45:09.480 --> 00:45:12.519
Wait a minute, you guys are
not gonna have your King of Fighters minute.

715
00:45:12.559 --> 00:45:15.360
Oh that's right, King Fighters Fighters
minute. Lots of new fighters.

716
00:45:15.360 --> 00:45:17.840
There are a lot of new fighters. There's only one new fighter that matters,

717
00:45:17.880 --> 00:45:22.039
Terry Bogarde. That's the one King
of cut off his ponytail. Yeah.

718
00:45:22.159 --> 00:45:25.880
King of Dinosaurs. Yeah, he's
not even teas not he's I mean,

719
00:45:25.960 --> 00:45:30.280
he was in Mark of the Wolves, but not and it's totally not

720
00:45:30.480 --> 00:45:32.239
him, totally totally not, totally
different character. I don't know who you're

721
00:45:32.239 --> 00:45:36.719
talking about. King of Dinosaurs is
a unique and new and fresh so so

722
00:45:36.800 --> 00:45:37.760
each of the well not in each
of the characters, but a lot of

723
00:45:37.800 --> 00:45:42.719
the characters have like you know,
special dialogue between one another and Terry.

724
00:45:42.800 --> 00:45:45.400
Actually when he meets King Denster's he's
like, hey, what's up Teazak,

725
00:45:45.519 --> 00:45:52.760
and King Dinoson is like, who
what do you stay on brand? Here?

726
00:45:52.880 --> 00:45:54.679
Yeah? Exactly? Is that game
good? Yeah? Is it a

727
00:45:54.800 --> 00:46:02.079
worthy successor that's the storied history of
Kings be debatable? It solid gameplay,

728
00:46:02.199 --> 00:46:07.719
Okay, it plays and feels like
a King of Fighters. Obviously the visuals

729
00:46:07.760 --> 00:46:09.280
have changed now they've moved into the
three D realm. They kind of,

730
00:46:09.360 --> 00:46:14.400
you know, chasen that street fight
or four money. I think trying to

731
00:46:14.440 --> 00:46:16.360
get into that, not that street
fight or five money. Not that street

732
00:46:16.360 --> 00:46:20.880
fight five money because there's no money
to be had there. But yeah,

733
00:46:21.280 --> 00:46:24.280
dude, I've really really missed the
sprites of the most recent games. I

734
00:46:24.320 --> 00:46:29.199
mean, is that a gameplay thing? Like no gameplay designer, But it

735
00:46:29.239 --> 00:46:31.719
seems like it maybe is hard to
replicate that kind of crispness of sprites when

736
00:46:31.719 --> 00:46:35.440
you move into three D replicate well, I mean, you know, we're

737
00:46:35.440 --> 00:46:39.320
seeing it done really really well and
like guilty gear exerts, so it's totally

738
00:46:39.480 --> 00:46:44.440
possible. But if it's a perception
thing, uh, it might be.

739
00:46:44.840 --> 00:46:46.000
I think part of it is also, like if you think about the S

740
00:46:46.119 --> 00:46:51.480
and K sprites. They've been using
them for decades. Yeah, so like

741
00:46:51.639 --> 00:46:54.320
you know how many frames you know, this Terry Bogard punch is more or

742
00:46:54.360 --> 00:46:57.960
less gonna have and yeah it's gonna
hit like this and we're gonna do this.

743
00:46:58.079 --> 00:47:00.639
And are you saying, like did
they not reanimate that for every game

744
00:47:00.800 --> 00:47:02.960
or they did? Yeah? Well
no, no, no they did not.

745
00:47:04.519 --> 00:47:07.119
I mean I'm sure that they changed
it over the years. I better

746
00:47:07.480 --> 00:47:12.239
something like it's been like when you
were when you were going from like k

747
00:47:12.519 --> 00:47:15.800
F ninety seven to ninety eight to
whatever, like, were there the whole

748
00:47:15.840 --> 00:47:19.840
sprites being reused for that stuff?
Oh? I did not realize that's stuff

749
00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:22.719
sometimes? Yeahs yeah, a lot
of time. Would it makes sense to

750
00:47:23.400 --> 00:47:29.239
animate like if there were like four
frames for a punch, do you think

751
00:47:29.280 --> 00:47:34.679
it would make sense to for your
polygonal models to jump for frames? Well,

752
00:47:34.760 --> 00:47:37.519
I think that they. I think
they're they're getting the timing right.

753
00:47:38.119 --> 00:47:44.239
The feel of it is. I
think initially it feels a little bit slow,

754
00:47:44.239 --> 00:47:46.079
and I think that might be due
to having more frames of animation.

755
00:47:46.639 --> 00:47:51.199
But I've seen some videos where they
do like a comparing contrast of you know,

756
00:47:51.639 --> 00:47:53.760
like the speed of of moves in
previous games to this one, and

757
00:47:53.840 --> 00:47:58.800
it's actually faster in some cases you're
not on par So it's just that I

758
00:47:58.880 --> 00:48:01.920
think it's mostly a perception thing.
Yeah, it's weird. It's weird to

759
00:48:02.400 --> 00:48:05.599
you know, be pretty familiar with
all those sprites and have it go,

760
00:48:05.719 --> 00:48:09.239
which which I did not experience this
issue when Street Fighter did it either in

761
00:48:09.320 --> 00:48:15.239
ex or in four really really like
slow to me, I think at first,

762
00:48:15.320 --> 00:48:19.000
but it didn't feel like I didn't
feel the need to compare it to

763
00:48:20.159 --> 00:48:22.119
three or even two at that point, Like maybe it just just because enough

764
00:48:22.159 --> 00:48:24.480
time had passed that it was like, Okay, this is its own thing.

765
00:48:24.840 --> 00:48:29.000
It's definitely gonna have its own feel
to it, just like three headed

766
00:48:29.000 --> 00:48:32.440
distinct feel from two. Suh.
Maybe that's the you know, with with

767
00:48:32.760 --> 00:48:37.039
a lot of the S and K
stuff having a lot of that same feel

768
00:48:37.760 --> 00:48:42.119
around the basics. Anyway, And
obviously they did make meaningful changes, but

769
00:48:42.559 --> 00:48:45.599
I don't Yeah, so they they
put out a Day one patch that supposedly

770
00:48:45.920 --> 00:48:49.320
makes changes to the net code.
I don't know if you've had any time

771
00:48:49.400 --> 00:48:52.119
to message. I was able to. Yeah, I downloaded the patch last

772
00:48:52.199 --> 00:48:54.920
night. I was only able to
find like one ranked match and no lobbies

773
00:48:54.960 --> 00:48:57.679
at that time, so I think
everybody was still like, you know,

774
00:48:57.760 --> 00:49:00.519
downloading the patcher or what. I
found one ranked match last night also and

775
00:49:00.599 --> 00:49:06.039
it was okay, that's been Yeah, I want to say it was listening

776
00:49:06.039 --> 00:49:07.519
to me as being one bar to
the other guy having full bar, which

777
00:49:07.599 --> 00:49:12.519
is weird. Yeah, that hasn't
been super consistent. I will say,

778
00:49:12.679 --> 00:49:15.000
like I've played people cross coast,
like down to Florida, played people in

779
00:49:15.039 --> 00:49:20.360
the UK, and those matches were, you know, either really good or

780
00:49:21.320 --> 00:49:23.719
pretty damn good, you know,
and that's saying something, you know,

781
00:49:23.800 --> 00:49:28.519
especially when you take into consideration the
previous games where the net code was just

782
00:49:28.719 --> 00:49:32.079
terrible, just absolute garbage. But
then again, you know, I've also

783
00:49:32.159 --> 00:49:35.639
had a bunch of matches which you
know, they say that they're in my

784
00:49:35.760 --> 00:49:39.119
region but they like playing slow motion
and you know, it's really laggy.

785
00:49:39.199 --> 00:49:42.599
But that was pre patch, so
that was pretty bad. That was one

786
00:49:42.639 --> 00:49:45.519
of the things. It's not in
the patch notes, but I Facebook friends

787
00:49:45.559 --> 00:49:49.800
with someone who works at S and
K and said that the patch that has

788
00:49:49.920 --> 00:49:53.239
this PS three control or support and
it also has net code, so so

789
00:49:53.360 --> 00:49:59.480
apparently it's got net code changes in
that day one patch fingers cross Man,

790
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:01.559
so yeah, I fink of s
cross But either way, like it's it's

791
00:50:02.599 --> 00:50:07.119
this is hyperboat, but infinitely better
than the neck code in the in the

792
00:50:07.159 --> 00:50:09.920
previous games for sure. Uh So
the real standout, you know, in

793
00:50:10.199 --> 00:50:13.320
in this game is, you know, there's a really solid, you know,

794
00:50:13.480 --> 00:50:16.119
roster of fighters. The game feels
good. Uh the neck code's pretty

795
00:50:16.159 --> 00:50:20.079
good so far. Knock on wood. Where it takes a step back,

796
00:50:20.119 --> 00:50:22.880
I think it's in the visuals for
sure. Straight up, you know,

797
00:50:22.960 --> 00:50:27.719
the story, not that I super
got into it in the previous games,

798
00:50:27.760 --> 00:50:32.599
but it's very bare bones now.
The only like, really I don't know,

799
00:50:32.760 --> 00:50:36.760
kind of interesting things that that do
happen is when you choose a team

800
00:50:36.880 --> 00:50:38.559
made up of like the original roster, like you know, the Fatal Fury

801
00:50:38.639 --> 00:50:43.719
team and groups that are meant to
be together, then you'll get like a

802
00:50:43.800 --> 00:50:47.119
special ending or something like that,
little comedic bits or whatever. That's kind

803
00:50:47.159 --> 00:50:51.920
of cool. But yeah, it's
uh, it's God, I think most

804
00:50:51.960 --> 00:50:55.159
of what you're looking for and just
and I just wish the characters looked better

805
00:50:57.239 --> 00:51:00.639
or closer to I got. I
go back, I go back and forth

806
00:51:00.719 --> 00:51:04.599
with it, like I'm not a
huge fan, but they do some pretty

807
00:51:04.760 --> 00:51:07.760
spectacular stuff with like you know,
some of the you know, super climax

808
00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:12.159
moves or whatever like those are animated
pretty well. Terry Spins has had around

809
00:51:12.320 --> 00:51:14.920
and he goes over the top.
It's business time. I thought, it

810
00:51:14.920 --> 00:51:16.760
doesn't the pointytail go through the back
of the hat, Like, don't ask

811
00:51:16.760 --> 00:51:21.400
too many questions about Terry. It
does not go through the back of that.

812
00:51:22.440 --> 00:51:24.360
Okay, no, that's silly.
Yeah, who would do that.

813
00:51:25.199 --> 00:51:28.880
He's not playing softball out there?
Okay, that's fair, it's fighting.

814
00:51:29.039 --> 00:51:30.400
But yeah, I mean it's got
you know, a training mode of course,

815
00:51:31.599 --> 00:51:35.760
very bare bones in that as well, like even some of the trials

816
00:51:35.800 --> 00:51:37.920
you know, where they give you
like a combo to to do, there's

817
00:51:37.960 --> 00:51:39.400
only like five of them per character. But you know, then again,

818
00:51:39.480 --> 00:51:42.920
you know we're dealing with you know, a ton of characters. But is

819
00:51:42.960 --> 00:51:45.719
this an impossible fighting game to get
into if you don't know it? I

820
00:51:45.840 --> 00:51:52.280
think maybe, yeah, I'm gonna
say probably. Yeah, it's certainly at

821
00:51:52.360 --> 00:51:57.199
like a competitive level because there's uh, you know, seven different jumps that

822
00:51:57.280 --> 00:52:00.159
you can do, you know,
which is pretty ridiculous, and then they're

823
00:52:00.239 --> 00:52:04.000
kind of hard to do. Uh, there's a short hop, there's the

824
00:52:04.039 --> 00:52:06.960
default jump when you just jump,
there's a medium hop, there's a short

825
00:52:07.000 --> 00:52:09.760
hop, and then there's like an
extra long hop. Right, what's the

826
00:52:09.760 --> 00:52:14.079
difference between a hop and town?
Right? Where does where the skip factor

827
00:52:14.199 --> 00:52:16.400
in? Because there's no skipping.
Well, if you if you count the

828
00:52:16.840 --> 00:52:20.960
little thing that goes through projectiles,
that could be seen as a skip depending

829
00:52:20.960 --> 00:52:23.559
on the animation, that could be
a hop skipping the jump. Sure,

830
00:52:23.639 --> 00:52:29.440
sorry, yeah, yeah kind of
some K's back made a video game back

831
00:52:29.480 --> 00:52:32.119
and it's it's it's pretty damn good
and I've got I can nitpick it,

832
00:52:32.280 --> 00:52:36.760
you know whatever. But it has
a spinning envelope that they rendered and rendered

833
00:52:36.800 --> 00:52:39.480
polygonally. Yeah, so and then
like that, the first end boss is

834
00:52:39.519 --> 00:52:44.880
super cool. He's like a Fame
Douglass kind of character but shirtless, and

835
00:52:45.079 --> 00:52:47.519
he's he takes cigars out of his
belt. It's it's pretty awesome. He's

836
00:52:47.559 --> 00:52:51.800
got a lot of abs. There, there are some apps. He has

837
00:52:51.840 --> 00:52:55.039
a few extra in reserve. I
mean, this this game is just the

838
00:52:55.119 --> 00:52:58.800
interesting from an academic standpoint, even
if you're not a big kof person,

839
00:52:58.920 --> 00:53:01.199
just because hey, K is making
video games again. And let's see what

840
00:53:01.320 --> 00:53:04.400
kind of chops they got. But
they kind of didn't stop really, I

841
00:53:04.400 --> 00:53:07.400
mean, I guess, but yeah, there was a trickle, and it

842
00:53:07.519 --> 00:53:10.920
was mostly they've been doing rereleases and
not developing those rereleases themselves. And but

843
00:53:10.920 --> 00:53:14.760
the S and K name has been
on games fairly steadily. But but in

844
00:53:14.800 --> 00:53:19.559
the in the like post Pachinko world, it's like they have reasserted themselves and

845
00:53:19.639 --> 00:53:22.960
said we're going back to this officially. Yeah they did. Yeah, and

846
00:53:22.039 --> 00:53:24.960
that's after like in all those really
bad like mobile ports, right like that,

847
00:53:25.199 --> 00:53:28.440
right, yeah, like kind of
if you look at this as like

848
00:53:28.480 --> 00:53:30.119
an early sign of things to come
from them, I think it's a it's

849
00:53:30.119 --> 00:53:34.880
a it's a great first steps on
It sounds fairly promising. I figured they'll

850
00:53:34.960 --> 00:53:37.880
make Samurai show Down next. That
seems like if you're if you're doing,

851
00:53:38.079 --> 00:53:44.000
if you're going down the like list
of popular franchises that you would probably do,

852
00:53:44.719 --> 00:53:46.320
that has to be what they do
after this. I mean, if

853
00:53:46.320 --> 00:53:50.119
they're interested in cashing in on nostalgia, that seems like the obvious thing.

854
00:53:50.159 --> 00:53:52.440
It's all the guys, I don't
I don't know that we're going to see

855
00:53:52.480 --> 00:53:54.400
like here's brand new IP from S
and K. Like, I don't think

856
00:53:54.440 --> 00:53:58.360
that that's going to be their approach, but specifically like just list of priority.

857
00:53:58.440 --> 00:54:00.519
It's like, what are the things
people love from S and K?

858
00:54:00.679 --> 00:54:01.719
King a Fighter same right, showed
up. Yeah, and then there's like

859
00:54:01.760 --> 00:54:06.440
the bubbling undercurrent of every interview they
have to mention Mark of the Wolves because

860
00:54:06.559 --> 00:54:08.559
that dude just says like, yeah, I really feel like I need to

861
00:54:08.639 --> 00:54:10.639
make a Mark of the Wolves sequel, and then everyone goes, yeah,

862
00:54:10.679 --> 00:54:15.760
you fucking do that'd be great.
You should do that. We should see

863
00:54:15.760 --> 00:54:19.679
that on P four pretty soon,
right the original Yeah, less Later was

864
00:54:19.840 --> 00:54:22.400
a release un there and it was
pretty damn good. Yeah that's so.

865
00:54:22.599 --> 00:54:25.400
Yeah, I'm looking forward to go
row and more tea Zuck. Yes,

866
00:54:25.519 --> 00:54:30.400
you think they start bringing back non
fighting game properties. That's a metal slug.

867
00:54:30.639 --> 00:54:31.800
Yeah, metal slug. I could
see metal slug. Yeah, thank

868
00:54:31.840 --> 00:54:39.320
you. Yeah, this new Magician
lords Lord, they were working on it

869
00:54:39.400 --> 00:54:43.880
two. I thought no that I
think a cross swords and a crosswords too

870
00:54:44.000 --> 00:54:45.639
that I think it was only out
on the CD community superspot or something.

871
00:54:45.800 --> 00:54:50.320
Yeah, I'm King of the Monsters. Yeah no, I don't, Okay,

872
00:54:50.599 --> 00:54:55.400
I did you combat, No,
no, Limb to Limb. Yeah,

873
00:54:55.760 --> 00:54:59.800
I don't know, man, that
that seems so many good games.

874
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:04.400
Bit of a stretch, but yeah, I don't know what other than I

875
00:55:04.519 --> 00:55:07.280
bet they would make them another Metal
Slugs. I think that's I think their

876
00:55:07.320 --> 00:55:09.199
most popular non fighting thing. I
could totally say that there there was some

877
00:55:09.360 --> 00:55:14.119
like kind of spiritual metal slug knockoffs
coming out on Steam and stuff like that.

878
00:55:14.239 --> 00:55:15.679
These days like that, there's some
that doesn't the real metal. No,

879
00:55:15.840 --> 00:55:20.599
I agree, but there's there's appetite
for that. They did free to

880
00:55:20.639 --> 00:55:22.880
play thing that. Yeah, there's
a I think there's some kind of thing

881
00:55:22.920 --> 00:55:27.320
out on three DS as well.
There's a DS I can't remember. Yeah,

882
00:55:27.480 --> 00:55:31.239
definitely DS, maybe three DS,
some kind Yeah, it's not on

883
00:55:31.280 --> 00:55:34.199
the S. Yeah, it's Xbox
one S. It was. It was

884
00:55:34.239 --> 00:55:37.400
on a screen, yeah for sure. Alexa, Hi, what's going on?

885
00:55:38.639 --> 00:55:44.280
Anime? Yeah, we've been over
this of anime video game podcast.

886
00:55:45.480 --> 00:55:47.679
Unless it's an anime video game,
I guess that's technically allowed. There's yeah,

887
00:55:47.920 --> 00:55:52.280
there's some of those, yeah there
yeah, like Attack on Titan,

888
00:55:52.639 --> 00:55:55.039
Oh, Attack on Titan. Yeah, we can't wait. You've you've been

889
00:55:55.039 --> 00:55:59.280
playing it? I had played the
first ten minutes. So I've been playing

890
00:55:59.360 --> 00:56:02.000
sounds general. We can't say anything, we can't like definitively I guess judge

891
00:56:02.039 --> 00:56:06.199
it yet. So I don't know
anything about the attack on Titan property.

892
00:56:06.280 --> 00:56:08.440
I just immediately assumed it was robots, and I figured like, oh,

893
00:56:08.480 --> 00:56:14.960
this is probably some more Mecca stuff, some kind of Titan fall. I

894
00:56:15.039 --> 00:56:15.719
just you know, I was thinking, I don't know what I was thinking.

895
00:56:15.760 --> 00:56:19.880
I am so sorry Titans reads his
robots to me. So when I

896
00:56:19.960 --> 00:56:22.039
get in the game and see like, oh, they made like a Dynasty

897
00:56:22.079 --> 00:56:25.920
Warriors with Spider Man flipping around and
then I'm fighting giant naked men, sometimes

898
00:56:27.000 --> 00:56:29.679
I was like, this is way
cooler than I thought it would be.

899
00:56:30.000 --> 00:56:36.039
So yeah, that's fuck man,
It's it's so the anime is kind of

900
00:56:36.119 --> 00:56:38.239
gross and like it's gained like a
really wide appreciation. I can see why

901
00:56:38.239 --> 00:56:42.519
people like it. I really,
it was coming up so often that I

902
00:56:42.599 --> 00:56:45.519
figured it had to that. Maybe
that's also why I figured it was robots,

903
00:56:45.559 --> 00:56:47.400
Like it's got to be this big
mainstream thing, so people are talking

904
00:56:47.400 --> 00:56:52.119
about exactly Titan. It gave this
reputation of being like the anime for everybody

905
00:56:52.159 --> 00:56:54.159
else, or like the anime that
non animate people would watch. So I

906
00:56:54.239 --> 00:56:59.159
guess another reason why I would not
suspect it to be about large naked men.

907
00:57:00.039 --> 00:57:06.960
But but it's great that it is
are very popular. I am sometimes

908
00:57:07.000 --> 00:57:10.239
a large naked man and I could
say I do okay, But yeah,

909
00:57:10.360 --> 00:57:14.880
I don't know. I just think
there's too many naked men in this game.

910
00:57:14.960 --> 00:57:16.840
Like you have to you have to
hack the limbs off before you can

911
00:57:17.320 --> 00:57:21.880
actually like kill them. So like
fight a dollar for every time I was

912
00:57:22.280 --> 00:57:24.639
flying down on top of a pro
naked man with his ass in the air,

913
00:57:24.760 --> 00:57:29.280
I would have a lot of money. Tell me about it. So

914
00:57:29.679 --> 00:57:34.079
face down, ass up. That's
the way we like to attack at That

915
00:57:34.239 --> 00:57:37.920
is exactly everyone says that, and
it's like it's it's it's fine, like

916
00:57:37.960 --> 00:57:40.920
it's there was an attack on Titan
game that came out I think like last

917
00:57:42.000 --> 00:57:45.440
year, a couple of years ago
by Atlas that was just supertrash. I

918
00:57:45.480 --> 00:57:46.800
didn't hear good stuff about that.
No, no, no, it was

919
00:57:46.840 --> 00:57:51.239
not good. And like I feel
like I feel like it's ko Koate moment

920
00:57:51.480 --> 00:57:54.639
made this one. Yeah, I
feel like they're they've done too many moose,

921
00:57:54.719 --> 00:57:58.920
They've grafted too many ips, onto
the Mooso genre. Like now there

922
00:57:59.039 --> 00:58:01.599
was there's the as one that came
out, and then there was this horrible

923
00:58:02.719 --> 00:58:06.320
legend of Zelda one that came on
a couple years This is all the thing

924
00:58:06.360 --> 00:58:07.719
happened? That was like nothing is
sacred anymore? Well, does all the

925
00:58:07.760 --> 00:58:13.519
thing happened? Horrible? It was
horrible because that story, that story was

926
00:58:13.880 --> 00:58:16.280
absolute trash. It was like the
most un Zelda thing I've ever seen.

927
00:58:16.320 --> 00:58:21.800
Also, if we take like one
further step back, Dynasty Warriors is awful.

928
00:58:21.920 --> 00:58:25.920
So they're drafting properties onto like a
bad foundation. It's like, hey,

929
00:58:27.039 --> 00:58:30.559
we've got this burning trash fire,
let's put Gundams on it. Maybe

930
00:58:30.599 --> 00:58:32.320
that'll get people to buy it.
Burning trash fire that people can't get it

931
00:58:32.440 --> 00:58:37.440
up, Yeah, exactly. It's
it's the definitive burning trash fire of our

932
00:58:37.519 --> 00:58:40.480
time, and everyone is out there
getting involved, and now all these other

933
00:58:40.559 --> 00:58:43.599
ips have to be a part of
it. So is that what this is?

934
00:58:43.840 --> 00:58:46.199
We except with giant naked men net
So I feel like this one is

935
00:58:46.239 --> 00:58:51.960
maybe a bit more removed from the
core mechanics of a zillion things happening on

936
00:58:52.079 --> 00:58:54.119
screen. It's very but you see, you see it. You do see

937
00:58:54.599 --> 00:58:59.960
the mini map the things you see, right, Yeah, it's basically it's

938
00:59:00.079 --> 00:59:02.679
a Dynasty Warriors game. I just
I mean, it's it's it's cool,

939
00:59:02.760 --> 00:59:06.000
I guess, but I wish if
they were going to go like full trash

940
00:59:06.079 --> 00:59:08.920
fire, they would like just pick
a trash Fire ip and just like run

941
00:59:09.000 --> 00:59:13.840
with it, quarantine it. It's
called Dynasty Wards. They've been running with

942
00:59:13.920 --> 00:59:17.480
it for generations. Yeah. When
was the last time a stear Warriors game

943
00:59:17.519 --> 00:59:22.119
that came out? They never got
past eight? Right, an they put

944
00:59:22.119 --> 00:59:23.440
out like five versions of eight or
something. Yeah, but then it's like

945
00:59:23.719 --> 00:59:30.159
x XL and you have another Samurai
Warriors recently probably I feel like one Piece

946
00:59:30.199 --> 00:59:34.679
one as well, another one Piece
one. Recently. I feel like every

947
00:59:34.760 --> 00:59:37.400
four months, another envelope shows up
with another disc in it from Tech and

948
00:59:37.480 --> 00:59:45.599
it's another Dynasty Warriors eight, very
Extreme Legends, super Pro Empires. Yeah

949
00:59:45.760 --> 00:59:49.639
yeah, Empires X Turbo plus Alpha's
probably origins in there somewhere, Yeah,

950
00:59:49.719 --> 00:59:55.880
for that very possibly, uh yeah, that thing. Yeah, we'll look.

951
00:59:58.280 --> 01:00:00.880
You have to watch it now,
know, I look at that.

952
01:00:00.159 --> 01:00:02.840
I watched you know what we want
that? Later this week im Bargo's Friday,

953
01:00:02.920 --> 01:00:07.920
okay whatever, I watched one episode
and there's so much screaming in that

954
01:00:08.079 --> 01:00:12.639
game, like just a normal conversation
like, hey, how's it going?

955
01:00:12.960 --> 01:00:15.599
Are you watching the Japanese version or
the English dub? I don't know any

956
01:00:16.039 --> 01:00:20.960
you would know they lost the ability
to it was probably like a year ago

957
01:00:21.000 --> 01:00:22.719
that I that I checked it out
because like everybody's watching it or whatever.

958
01:00:23.119 --> 01:00:28.199
Very good. Yeah. I watched
about half an episode and it was like,

959
01:00:28.639 --> 01:00:30.960
this is two anime for me?
Is cut? All right anime?

960
01:00:31.119 --> 01:00:36.639
Let's talk about it? Yeah?
Is it? Is it code Gias?

961
01:00:37.440 --> 01:00:39.119
Yeah? Is that good? I
saw I caught an episode of that on

962
01:00:39.400 --> 01:00:43.639
the Cartoon Network like four years ago
and saw like half of one, and

963
01:00:43.719 --> 01:00:45.639
I was like, you're walled in
this city and you got robots. That

964
01:00:45.679 --> 01:00:46.760
looks like it might be kind of
cool. Is that kind of cool?

965
01:00:46.880 --> 01:00:49.920
Yeah? It is kind of cool. Okay, all right? Are you

966
01:00:50.039 --> 01:00:52.400
are you a fan of the Giant
mac Robot? I'm assuming that's two cham

967
01:00:52.639 --> 01:00:57.199
theory and theory I would be a
giant making naked man guy. Yeah,

968
01:00:57.960 --> 01:01:00.280
I guess. I don't know.
Not like I did not get super into

969
01:01:00.320 --> 01:01:04.119
Macross as a kid or anything like
that. Macross is a lot of singing

970
01:01:04.159 --> 01:01:07.679
in it and a lot of fancy
costume changes. That sounds great, but

971
01:01:07.559 --> 01:01:09.800
at this point, now that there
are like a zillion episodes of that thing,

972
01:01:10.039 --> 01:01:15.400
it's hard to even know where to
watch. Warrior Musical sho is kind

973
01:01:15.440 --> 01:01:19.360
of they have like like the women, A lot of the women in those

974
01:01:19.920 --> 01:01:22.880
almost a game in those series have
like they're singing, does something. So

975
01:01:23.039 --> 01:01:27.880
they have like every single gym.
Yeah, like every single series has like

976
01:01:27.920 --> 01:01:31.239
a pop star great and one of
them were I think Macross Frontier was literally

977
01:01:31.320 --> 01:01:36.039
like the the A plot was the
wanna be pop star and the pop star

978
01:01:36.320 --> 01:01:38.159
and in this love triangle, and
the B plot was the Giant was the

979
01:01:38.199 --> 01:01:42.159
Giant mix? Okay, it seems
like the right ratio to me. Yeah.

980
01:01:42.679 --> 01:01:46.639
That is Ghost in the Shell the
series standalone complex actually worth watching,

981
01:01:46.800 --> 01:01:52.679
yes, okay, because that's what
we That game came out on Steam and

982
01:01:52.800 --> 01:01:57.880
so we covered it, and so
that led to me watching the original film

983
01:01:58.400 --> 01:02:05.199
Ghost in the Shell decades later,
uh and decades removed from its time.

984
01:02:05.639 --> 01:02:07.480
It's probably it's a hard I found
it to be a hard watch. It

985
01:02:07.639 --> 01:02:10.519
is in that nothing happens and people
were like, oh, you shouldn't understand.

986
01:02:10.519 --> 01:02:13.960
It's like no, I'm not an
idiot. You would have to be

987
01:02:14.039 --> 01:02:16.400
a child to not understand what is
happening in this thing. It's just nothing

988
01:02:16.519 --> 01:02:20.719
fucking happens. It's got style,
for sure, but like I feel like

989
01:02:20.760 --> 01:02:22.920
even that style has maybe worn thin
in the decades, Like it was probably

990
01:02:23.039 --> 01:02:29.679
very impressive from an animation standpoint back
then. So but but stanlet complex actually

991
01:02:30.320 --> 01:02:31.400
actually works. Okay because the people
everyone said, like, you need to

992
01:02:31.440 --> 01:02:32.880
watch that, and I was like, you're all do into ticks. But

993
01:02:32.920 --> 01:02:36.320
okay, all right, good,
it's very good. I've assumed you've also

994
01:02:36.320 --> 01:02:37.840
seen how by Bebop. If we're
gonna go with recommend I am aware of

995
01:02:37.920 --> 01:02:44.000
it, but I have not yet
want to. You might get into space

996
01:02:44.079 --> 01:02:46.880
opera. It's very good. Like
Star Wars Jef. Yeah, that's okay,

997
01:02:46.960 --> 01:02:50.480
I'm out, No thanks, You're
not a Star Wars. No,

998
01:02:50.639 --> 01:02:52.239
not at all. I know.
I think I think you just wach Bubblegum

999
01:02:52.320 --> 01:02:58.360
Crisis. Yeah, yes, that's
like Beause episodes. It's super short,

1000
01:02:58.480 --> 01:03:02.519
b it is very he's cyber.
Yeah, okay, that's that's actually if

1001
01:03:02.519 --> 01:03:06.039
you if I really wanted to pin
down the aesthetic that I would be looking

1002
01:03:06.039 --> 01:03:08.000
for, it is eighties that thing
that thing. That thing, in addition

1003
01:03:08.039 --> 01:03:14.719
to being short, is uh it's
Blade Runner plus a big Hair plus Japanese

1004
01:03:14.760 --> 01:03:16.239
glam rock Priss in the replica.
Yes, all right, like that is

1005
01:03:16.320 --> 01:03:21.639
that like I intend to watch at
some point? Right? Yeah, just

1006
01:03:21.760 --> 01:03:25.199
because I played the game on the
Master System And isn't that like your avatar

1007
01:03:25.280 --> 01:03:30.119
on the forum as well? I
think if you like anime big hair ladies,

1008
01:03:31.119 --> 01:03:35.800
I mean, yeah, do you
like fantasy or is it just I

1009
01:03:35.840 --> 01:03:38.719
don't really like fantasy? No?
Yeah, just generally speaking, So I

1010
01:03:38.760 --> 01:03:42.599
think we've had this conversation by Lord
of the Rings, yeah as to why

1011
01:03:42.599 --> 01:03:46.440
I don't like Lord of the Rings. Yeah, yeah, uh do you

1012
01:03:46.519 --> 01:03:52.639
like puppets? Kind of? Here
we go, So there's it's not an

1013
01:03:52.679 --> 01:03:55.239
anime, but it's written by one
of like the best anime writers, Gennerbocci,

1014
01:03:55.360 --> 01:04:00.719
and it's called Thunderbolt Fantasy, and
it's a woojia drama with Taiwanese glove

1015
01:04:00.760 --> 01:04:02.960
puppets all right, just live act, live action filmed puppets, okay,

1016
01:04:03.000 --> 01:04:08.239
alight, and they use some CGI
and some special effects. It's a wuja

1017
01:04:08.320 --> 01:04:11.880
drama. So there's like a lot
of like big sword attacks and like glowing

1018
01:04:11.960 --> 01:04:14.960
things, and the script is really
funny and really well done, and like

1019
01:04:15.000 --> 01:04:17.639
the production value is fantastic. You've
you've seen it. I'm going to back

1020
01:04:17.679 --> 01:04:21.280
you up on this. It's pretty
fucking awesome. It's really cool, like

1021
01:04:21.360 --> 01:04:25.880
special effects and just like the production
behind it. I'm not following the story

1022
01:04:25.920 --> 01:04:28.559
so much because usually it's just like
on on the TV and then I'm like

1023
01:04:28.599 --> 01:04:30.280
working on something, Lisa's watching it. But I look over every now again

1024
01:04:30.320 --> 01:04:34.960
it's like, shit, music is
fantastic. These are doing made fucking dolls.

1025
01:04:35.000 --> 01:04:38.760
The last puppet thing I got way
into with syphil and Ali isn't like

1026
01:04:38.880 --> 01:04:43.119
that. Yes, no, pretty
much right there you can see the influence.

1027
01:04:43.480 --> 01:04:46.320
Okay, No, it's absolutely fantastic. There's only I think it's it's

1028
01:04:46.400 --> 01:04:49.079
ongoing right now, and it's the
next episode comes on on Friday. But

1029
01:04:49.119 --> 01:04:53.039
it is so freaking good. Episodes
are like twenty minutes long. Watch it,

1030
01:04:53.320 --> 01:04:57.840
crunch it. Did you watch the
Fantasy Star Online two anime? I

1031
01:04:57.920 --> 01:05:00.159
did. I saw the first episode
of that, and it looked like a

1032
01:05:00.519 --> 01:05:04.159
travesty on a lot of levels.
It was not for me. I passed,

1033
01:05:04.239 --> 01:05:08.239
I passify, I played. I
played a lot of that game and

1034
01:05:08.559 --> 01:05:11.440
don't watch. That did not That
did not help. That did not leave

1035
01:05:11.440 --> 01:05:15.079
me to go like, oh yeah, finally a show about someone else who

1036
01:05:15.119 --> 01:05:18.440
plays this game. But what if
the game was real and it made me

1037
01:05:18.519 --> 01:05:21.800
want to die? Yeah, that's
basically the plot of like swordar Online,

1038
01:05:23.000 --> 01:05:25.480
which is another which is an okay
anime as well, But no, there's

1039
01:05:25.519 --> 01:05:29.880
nothing for you and Fantasy Star.
There's gotta be a Husk anime right everywhere.

1040
01:05:29.960 --> 01:05:31.480
You can actually watch one of her
live action concerts, and yeah,

1041
01:05:31.480 --> 01:05:35.719
I think she supersedes anime, right, Yeah, she's lifestyle. I think

1042
01:05:35.719 --> 01:05:40.840
I. I keep thinking about buying
a vocal loid. Wait, you mean

1043
01:05:40.920 --> 01:05:45.719
like like the voice? No,
like the actual like music. We were

1044
01:05:45.760 --> 01:05:48.599
done talking about mechanical aparts. I
would you do it? I don't write

1045
01:05:48.599 --> 01:05:51.360
songs. I don't know why not. I think that'd be fun. Yeah,

1046
01:05:51.559 --> 01:05:55.960
yeah, I get like your own
custom vocal looid, Well, if

1047
01:05:55.960 --> 01:05:58.599
you want to, if you wanted
the rights to know you, you're buying

1048
01:05:58.679 --> 01:06:04.320
cyber Diva, the English language vocal
OIDs. Probably, I don't actually know.

1049
01:06:04.960 --> 01:06:08.599
I have not. I have not
touched the vocaloid software in years,

1050
01:06:08.840 --> 01:06:13.079
and last time I looked at it, it was impenetrable. Uh So I

1051
01:06:13.199 --> 01:06:16.119
imagine that now that Houtsnimiku has happened
and blown up real big, I bet

1052
01:06:16.199 --> 01:06:18.559
that that stuff got a lot better
and easier to work with. So I

1053
01:06:18.840 --> 01:06:25.320
kind of want to mess from that
because that would be fun. And I

1054
01:06:25.360 --> 01:06:27.760
mean, at this point, you
can throw so many extra effects on it

1055
01:06:27.920 --> 01:06:30.519
that you would end up in a
situation where no one would even have to

1056
01:06:30.639 --> 01:06:32.199
know that it was not a real
voice. What would you write songs about,

1057
01:06:32.320 --> 01:06:36.960
I don't know, just whatever,
just hand trucks, a lot of

1058
01:06:38.440 --> 01:06:42.079
should be might be nine songs about
shove at the Warehouse game for the Genesis,

1059
01:06:42.719 --> 01:06:47.159
basically like a full cycle that was
a concept album. Totally do it

1060
01:06:47.400 --> 01:06:50.280
high end stuff? Yes, So
yeah, so those things are actually not

1061
01:06:50.440 --> 01:06:54.920
I was looking recently like it's not
that expensive, Like I figured the vocal

1062
01:06:54.920 --> 01:06:56.719
oid stuff, like well, a
lot of the VSTs, a lot of

1063
01:06:56.719 --> 01:07:00.360
plugins for music production. You can
suddenly real I was like, oh,

1064
01:07:00.360 --> 01:07:02.360
I'm spending like seven hundred bucks for
a sample tank or whatever it is,

1065
01:07:02.400 --> 01:07:06.119
But like that thing is surprisingly affordable
for what it was. It was maybe

1066
01:07:06.199 --> 01:07:11.320
like two hundred bucks or something.
So getting a fake lady voice would be

1067
01:07:11.400 --> 01:07:14.199
kind of fun. Then you put
it that way, do it? Yeah?

1068
01:07:14.840 --> 01:07:17.440
I don't know, maybe maybe said
you play anything else? No,

1069
01:07:17.880 --> 01:07:21.400
note nothing, that's it all anime
all the time over there. Yeah,

1070
01:07:21.480 --> 01:07:25.840
it's been. We're kind of like
I'm planning a bunch of like shows and

1071
01:07:25.920 --> 01:07:28.599
a bunch of other like stuff right
now. So right now it's just me

1072
01:07:28.719 --> 01:07:31.840
an attack on Titan. But I'll
hopefully have the new Ace Attorney in the

1073
01:07:31.960 --> 01:07:35.400
next day or two. There's a
new Acetney. Yeah, really, Spirits

1074
01:07:35.400 --> 01:07:40.000
of Spirit, Spirit of Justice.
What is that number? Six? Six?

1075
01:07:40.400 --> 01:07:44.960
Yep? Okay, still still attorneying. Yeah, well I think those

1076
01:07:44.960 --> 01:07:46.760
games are pretty much the same,
right well, they all kind of like

1077
01:07:46.840 --> 01:07:49.880
at a new mechanic. I actually
I just recently, I'm close to finishing

1078
01:07:49.920 --> 01:07:51.960
it. I haven't played another game. What's wrong with me? When I

1079
01:07:53.000 --> 01:07:55.480
was in Japan last year, I
bought a Japanese three DS and I bought

1080
01:07:55.519 --> 01:08:00.719
a Diyakutin Saibon, which is the
Meiji era Ace Attorney. And it's so

1081
01:08:00.920 --> 01:08:05.719
steep to Japanese culture and so like
historically like relevant to Japan and like uh

1082
01:08:06.119 --> 01:08:09.639
it has like Sherlock Holmes and Watson
in it, and Watson is like a

1083
01:08:09.639 --> 01:08:13.559
twelve year old girl with pink hair, and it's very japanesey. They didn't

1084
01:08:13.559 --> 01:08:16.520
localize it. So I'm studying for
the Japanese Language Proficiency Exam at the end

1085
01:08:16.520 --> 01:08:20.239
of the year, and I've been
using that game to test my kanji and

1086
01:08:20.319 --> 01:08:24.319
to like learn like words that I
don't know. So I'm like almost done

1087
01:08:24.359 --> 01:08:28.560
with it. So's rough. How
many do you have? Account A painful

1088
01:08:28.560 --> 01:08:31.119
amount? Yeah, we're getting there. Okay, what's the number is that?

1089
01:08:31.239 --> 01:08:34.079
There's like a there's like a cutoff, right for literacy, there's a

1090
01:08:34.119 --> 01:08:39.079
cutoff. I think I can recognize
maybe like a thousand. Wow. Wow,

1091
01:08:39.159 --> 01:08:42.159
that's good. But there's more solid
but there's more. There's tons,

1092
01:08:42.199 --> 01:08:45.079
there's like what is there? There's
like too many? Yeah, but I

1093
01:08:45.119 --> 01:08:47.600
can piece them together many thousands if
you like. There's like radicals in it,

1094
01:08:47.720 --> 01:08:50.479
like this means house, this means
woman, and like if I see

1095
01:08:50.520 --> 01:08:54.439
them, I can piece together meaning
I just can't like read it. But

1096
01:08:54.880 --> 01:08:58.600
we're getting there. Is the proficiency
test, like the thing that they give

1097
01:08:59.039 --> 01:09:03.399
foreign service. So the proficiency test
is for like like you can you can

1098
01:09:03.439 --> 01:09:05.359
take it in Japan. I think
they have to take it, but like

1099
01:09:05.439 --> 01:09:10.399
if you are a foreigner who's looking
for like a work visa, or who's

1100
01:09:10.439 --> 01:09:15.239
looking to like work in Japan,
or is they love their standardized tests.

1101
01:09:15.560 --> 01:09:17.600
So this is the standardized test for
like I say on my resume I can

1102
01:09:17.640 --> 01:09:21.600
read and speech Japanese. Here's the
proof. Here's my whatever level score japan

1103
01:09:23.840 --> 01:09:26.680
that proof? Yes, Okay,
you take the test and they're like,

1104
01:09:27.000 --> 01:09:30.640
yeah, awesome. Do you get
a carricchi wah? Yeah, if you

1105
01:09:30.720 --> 01:09:32.840
get like a thing that's like you
passed this level, and like I've passed

1106
01:09:32.880 --> 01:09:36.039
the like lowest lowest level and they've
passed the second lowest level, and I'm

1107
01:09:36.079 --> 01:09:40.760
trying for the second highest level this
year. So like what are the levels

1108
01:09:40.800 --> 01:09:44.880
called? N one is the hardest
and end five is the easiest? Right?

1109
01:09:45.079 --> 01:09:50.119
Is like a color associated or actually
take is there a different icon associated

1110
01:09:50.119 --> 01:09:53.840
with each level? I think I
wanted to be like mex I wanted to

1111
01:09:53.880 --> 01:09:58.199
be like you get like a older
painting on it, like a stripe of

1112
01:09:58.279 --> 01:10:00.880
a certain color and end two would
I would love that? I bet there

1113
01:10:01.000 --> 01:10:05.960
is a Japan Yeah. I think
they think they get the jumpsuits in Japan.

1114
01:10:05.960 --> 01:10:10.119
I don't think they eat any of
America. You should definitely take the

1115
01:10:10.159 --> 01:10:13.640
test there then I would love to. But yeah, all, like the

1116
01:10:13.720 --> 01:10:15.760
directions are in Japanese too, so
if like you don't understand like a specific

1117
01:10:15.840 --> 01:10:18.159
word, it's like, well,
I guess you don't know what the directions

1118
01:10:18.159 --> 01:10:24.399
are. Good luck. I suppose
that makes sense if you if anything on

1119
01:10:24.479 --> 01:10:27.119
you, like vibrates or rings,
like I was in a they kick you

1120
01:10:27.239 --> 01:10:29.960
out. So I was in a
testing room in one person's phone vibrated like

1121
01:10:30.239 --> 01:10:31.159
in the middle of the room,
and the teacher heard it, got up

1122
01:10:31.199 --> 01:10:35.000
and just kicked them out. Like
you literally can't have like any They're very

1123
01:10:35.079 --> 01:10:39.640
like, it's very regiments. Somebody
could somebody could be sending your more code

1124
01:10:39.680 --> 01:10:42.600
of yes something. I don't know
what I'm doing, but I'm doing it.

1125
01:10:42.920 --> 01:10:45.439
I think these things are standardized for
a reason. So Phoenix right pretty

1126
01:10:45.479 --> 01:10:49.199
good? Still yeah, yeah,
still pretty great. This new one has

1127
01:10:49.359 --> 01:10:53.479
is a little more like, uh, they kind of like took the spirituality

1128
01:10:53.560 --> 01:10:57.840
out of the game and now they're
like going full on like mystical who voodoo,

1129
01:10:58.039 --> 01:11:01.439
which is cool. I'd rather just
see a ghost trick two at this

1130
01:11:01.479 --> 01:11:06.199
point. Yes, yeah, is
that those guys same people? I want

1131
01:11:06.239 --> 01:11:14.000
to say, maybe possibly they're all
in that hand area somewhere. Stop giving

1132
01:11:14.079 --> 01:11:16.319
us ten thousand versions of Monster Hunter
and give us a ghost Yeah no,

1133
01:11:16.439 --> 01:11:19.159
kidding, right, it's almost like
kind of comments fighting for survival and has

1134
01:11:19.159 --> 01:11:23.960
to put out the games at work
to keep itself afloat nine more Monster Hunter

1135
01:11:24.079 --> 01:11:27.760
games. Get them go and do
it street Fighter, Oh no, make

1136
01:11:27.880 --> 01:11:32.880
that eighteen. We' ried. We
ried our best. I apologize for the

1137
01:11:33.000 --> 01:11:38.199
latest segue in podcast history. But
speaking of Titans go on, we should

1138
01:11:38.199 --> 01:11:43.119
probably talk about right, Yeah,
I totally forgot. Yeah, yeah,

1139
01:11:43.600 --> 01:11:45.079
they are not. But you don't
know what's going on under this. It's

1140
01:11:45.079 --> 01:11:47.880
just a tech test, so we
can only assume that in the final game

1141
01:11:47.920 --> 01:11:53.960
you can play as a naked man. Titan Fall two is good. I

1142
01:11:54.079 --> 01:11:57.319
like it. I don't know,
like they're they're The reaction seemed mixed.

1143
01:11:57.439 --> 01:12:00.760
Yeah, over the weekend, it's
very very negative. He like as the

1144
01:12:00.800 --> 01:12:05.279
weekend war on like this backlash appeared
to be forming. I I like what

1145
01:12:05.439 --> 01:12:11.119
is in that test? Provided that
there are things that are in the final

1146
01:12:11.239 --> 01:12:15.359
game that are not in this test, right. Uh. And that's the

1147
01:12:15.520 --> 01:12:17.760
thing where only one of the three
modes they're showing has AI in it,

1148
01:12:17.840 --> 01:12:20.840
and the AI guys are used in
a slightly different way than they were in

1149
01:12:20.840 --> 01:12:26.560
the attrition mode in titan Fall one, where they are the focal point of

1150
01:12:26.760 --> 01:12:30.560
like, okay, it's it's a
wave based thing. So in their bounty

1151
01:12:30.640 --> 01:12:34.359
mode, like AI controlled characters will
drop in, you gun them down to

1152
01:12:34.479 --> 01:12:39.079
earn dollars, then between rounds you
cash in the dollars at one of the

1153
01:12:39.159 --> 01:12:41.880
banks. They are the objective.
They are the objective. You also earned

1154
01:12:41.920 --> 01:12:44.520
dollars for killing a post pilot,
but you have to kill them. But

1155
01:12:44.800 --> 01:12:46.960
right, yeah, yeah, the
the goal is for both teams to kill

1156
01:12:47.039 --> 01:12:50.600
all of the AI, and that's
the wave to end creeps. Yeah,

1157
01:12:50.760 --> 01:12:54.760
I mean, well they were,
that's the thing. Though they were way

1158
01:12:54.840 --> 01:12:57.840
more like creeps in titan Fall one, I think. But but but in

1159
01:12:58.319 --> 01:13:00.119
the first game, from what I
remember, they were just fodder to fill

1160
01:13:00.159 --> 01:13:02.920
out the map in a mode that
didn't have a lot of actual players.

1161
01:13:02.960 --> 01:13:08.920
And it makes me feel so Also, you earn your titan by doing things

1162
01:13:09.319 --> 01:13:11.760
more so in this game, like
I think that the I want to say,

1163
01:13:12.000 --> 01:13:14.720
the timer is gone completely used to
just be a timer and when you

1164
01:13:14.840 --> 01:13:15.840
killed something it was like, oh, that's three seconds off your timer.

1165
01:13:16.239 --> 01:13:18.840
Now I think it is literally just
like as you get hits, it's like

1166
01:13:18.920 --> 01:13:25.079
four percent building eight percent, you're
building up two percent. It seems like

1167
01:13:25.159 --> 01:13:28.039
I played a few matches where I
never even got a titan. Yeah,

1168
01:13:28.119 --> 01:13:30.000
it's kind of frustrating. So I
think that's something they need to balance out.

1169
01:13:30.039 --> 01:13:34.239
And and so they said one of
the things they said about the test

1170
01:13:34.399 --> 01:13:38.000
was like, Okay, we know
we need to increase the titan build rate

1171
01:13:38.199 --> 01:13:41.720
in this mode. Uh so just
like it was a white board that was

1172
01:13:41.760 --> 01:13:46.319
just like Titan spawn plus plus.
So they know that. Uh and and

1173
01:13:46.479 --> 01:13:49.800
yeah. So so I think that's
the changes that like in that mode.

1174
01:13:49.880 --> 01:13:53.520
And also so that's the that's the
change that that is the only mode that

1175
01:13:53.560 --> 01:13:56.399
has the AI in it. The
Pilots on Pilots one does not have it,

1176
01:13:57.159 --> 01:14:01.239
And the the hard Point like capture
domination style mode that they have in

1177
01:14:01.279 --> 01:14:04.359
there, I believe that also doesn't
have AI AI. I feel like it's

1178
01:14:04.359 --> 01:14:06.520
a big part of that game.
When you strip it out, it should

1179
01:14:06.520 --> 01:14:11.319
be for hey, we're having a
weird separate pilots on pilots fight that is

1180
01:14:11.399 --> 01:14:14.600
not part of the main game.
It's just something we added in like AI.

1181
01:14:14.600 --> 01:14:16.159
I think it's core to that thing, and more of the modes should

1182
01:14:16.239 --> 01:14:19.840
have it than not. So if
that's the direction they're going in, I

1183
01:14:19.920 --> 01:14:25.680
think that's maybe an issue because when
you strip away the AI, it really

1184
01:14:25.840 --> 01:14:29.840
just kind of turns it back into
a more standard shooter with some mobility objects.

1185
01:14:29.880 --> 01:14:31.439
I saw as people very snidily just
saying, oh, they're turning it

1186
01:14:31.479 --> 01:14:34.680
into call of duty. Yeah,
and so that's you know, they've got

1187
01:14:34.760 --> 01:14:39.119
a sniper rifle in there, and
so I didn't realize this at the time,

1188
01:14:39.199 --> 01:14:43.479
but apparently they draw a fat red
outline around other human players, guessing

1189
01:14:43.560 --> 01:14:46.079
you can't really see it, could
not see the red at all. My

1190
01:14:46.159 --> 01:14:49.920
understanding is that there is a color
blend, so the color line options as

1191
01:14:50.000 --> 01:14:54.760
of that tech test do not color
that line. But that is fixed.

1192
01:14:54.800 --> 01:14:58.720
Apparently that will be that will be
the case. I've seen some stuff I

1193
01:14:58.760 --> 01:15:01.239
wonder if awesome that will be addressed. If I assume some of these changes

1194
01:15:01.239 --> 01:15:05.640
will probably get hot fixed for next
weekend. It's down right now and it'll

1195
01:15:05.640 --> 01:15:09.399
be back right back the weekend,
back this weekend. I don't know if

1196
01:15:09.520 --> 01:15:11.560
people that have a code, they
might still be able to play if they

1197
01:15:11.600 --> 01:15:14.560
if they got in that way,
I'm not actually sure I should try it.

1198
01:15:15.000 --> 01:15:18.039
So yeah, So when they draw
that outline around the player, I

1199
01:15:18.159 --> 01:15:24.640
wonder if that then is also just
inciting sniping because you've got these larger than

1200
01:15:24.680 --> 01:15:27.920
Call of Duty sized maps, but
maybe not fully the size of a battlefield

1201
01:15:27.960 --> 01:15:31.319
map, so the distance between players
is longer than Call of Duty, so

1202
01:15:31.399 --> 01:15:35.000
you're kind of like, you know, that doesn't seem like a shotgun kind

1203
01:15:35.039 --> 01:15:38.079
of game. Not, it's not
an SMG kind of game. It's really

1204
01:15:38.119 --> 01:15:41.920
assault rifle and higher in terms of
range. So I think they're kind of

1205
01:15:41.960 --> 01:15:45.520
like they're giving people more incentive to
snipe, which is not how I like

1206
01:15:45.640 --> 01:15:48.760
to play my shooters and not how
I like to have them played on me.

1207
01:15:49.720 --> 01:15:54.199
So there were more instances of just
like I am running jumping, Oh

1208
01:15:54.199 --> 01:15:56.840
I'm dead. I don't know why. So oh, someone all the way

1209
01:15:56.840 --> 01:15:59.359
across the map shot me. That's
what happened. So I wonder if the

1210
01:15:59.600 --> 01:16:02.000
the out lines around the players is
just kind of making that slightly easier.

1211
01:16:02.239 --> 01:16:04.319
I don't actually know, since I
can't see the outline. Also, I

1212
01:16:04.359 --> 01:16:08.439
mean, in the first game,
there wasn't any obvious way to tell at

1213
01:16:08.439 --> 01:16:10.880
a glance who was AI and who
like obviously if you knew the models,

1214
01:16:10.960 --> 01:16:12.840
you could figure it out and over
time you would get used to it.

1215
01:16:12.880 --> 01:16:16.119
But like like at distance, there
was no like glaring indicator like this is

1216
01:16:16.159 --> 01:16:18.520
a player, this is AI,
right, like a little bit more ambiguous

1217
01:16:18.520 --> 01:16:23.479
once you would never confuse the two
things just because of how they move,

1218
01:16:24.239 --> 01:16:27.720
so you know, but I mean
there was no UI around differentiating the two,

1219
01:16:28.319 --> 01:16:30.039
like there is no Yeah, so
that's that's a change. And I

1220
01:16:30.159 --> 01:16:32.880
wonder if that is leading to more
sniping and stuff like that, Like I

1221
01:16:33.039 --> 01:16:38.039
don't think that that's a fun game
at range, Like that's a fun game

1222
01:16:38.079 --> 01:16:41.560
when you are wall running looking down
at someone and shooting them in like like

1223
01:16:41.680 --> 01:16:45.399
the like tightening it up a little
bit, whether that's AI because you're running

1224
01:16:45.439 --> 01:16:48.000
across the map to get to the
other players doesn't matter as long as you've

1225
01:16:48.039 --> 01:16:51.199
got something to do as you're doing
it. Then you're getting across the map

1226
01:16:51.239 --> 01:16:56.439
to where the real action is and
feeling like a raw dog murder in motherfucker

1227
01:16:56.520 --> 01:16:59.840
the whole time because you're just you're
killing all this AI as you get there

1228
01:17:00.199 --> 01:17:02.800
and earning your next titan as you
go. Like there that was the flow,

1229
01:17:03.079 --> 01:17:05.960
Like the kind of loop of Titan
Fall that I think was really awesome

1230
01:17:06.000 --> 01:17:09.319
in that first and I seem to
be missing that in this one, you

1231
01:17:09.399 --> 01:17:11.359
know, you know, with the
addition of like the grappling hook, you

1232
01:17:11.439 --> 01:17:14.600
know, the extreme parkour and exactly
what you were just talking about, feeling

1233
01:17:14.640 --> 01:17:17.239
like a badass motherfucker jumping between buildings
and killing people. This seems like there's

1234
01:17:17.319 --> 01:17:20.399
less instances of that. Well,
it's I think that's due to the modes,

1235
01:17:20.840 --> 01:17:25.359
and I think and I don't think
it's more than maps. Maybe that

1236
01:17:25.439 --> 01:17:27.880
as well, But like if you
think about it in terms of how attrition

1237
01:17:27.960 --> 01:17:30.039
mode worked in the previous game,
it could be that same map, but

1238
01:17:30.199 --> 01:17:33.479
you would see AI guys running out
of doors and doing stuff all over the

1239
01:17:33.560 --> 01:17:36.840
map, whereas right now AI guys
are going to Point A and Point B

1240
01:17:38.000 --> 01:17:40.720
and they're all spawning right there,
and they're all right there, So you

1241
01:17:40.800 --> 01:17:44.279
have to get to those points to
get in those fights. They're they're localized,

1242
01:17:44.279 --> 01:17:47.960
they're not across the map the way
they normally were. So I just

1243
01:17:48.079 --> 01:17:51.600
don't think that's as fun. And
I think that's I actually like that bounty

1244
01:17:51.680 --> 01:17:55.560
hut mode. I think it's cool. Yeah, but I wouldn't hang the

1245
01:17:55.800 --> 01:17:58.600
entire game on that, and if
they're hoping to hang the entire game on

1246
01:17:58.720 --> 01:18:04.159
that, that's maybe a problem as
long as unless they've got all those other

1247
01:18:04.199 --> 01:18:08.000
modes in there that there's Obviously it's
a tech test, it's not every mode.

1248
01:18:08.279 --> 01:18:11.960
It's certainly not all the gear that's
in the game, because that was

1249
01:18:12.039 --> 01:18:15.039
my main problem with the first game
is that it just didn't have enough options

1250
01:18:15.119 --> 01:18:16.079
for you as a player. When
you're building your load out, it was

1251
01:18:16.079 --> 01:18:18.680
like, Okay, well, this
is generally how I like to play.

1252
01:18:18.880 --> 01:18:23.399
There's one gun that fits that style
of play. Done, I've unlocked all

1253
01:18:23.399 --> 01:18:26.439
the things I need to unlock,
and there's no carrot, no stick,

1254
01:18:26.520 --> 01:18:29.199
no nothing like I could level up
and reset over and over again. But

1255
01:18:29.319 --> 01:18:32.520
why Like, it was just a
very short upgrade path. So if they're

1256
01:18:32.560 --> 01:18:36.399
lengthening that out with more gear and
more options, then that's a good thing.

1257
01:18:38.319 --> 01:18:42.159
But I have to see where their
modes ended, like like what modes

1258
01:18:42.199 --> 01:18:45.119
they end up shipping with and that
sort of stuff, because I think the

1259
01:18:45.199 --> 01:18:48.520
modes without AI are don't feel like
Titan Fall and yeah, and if they're

1260
01:18:48.600 --> 01:18:50.960
going further in that direction, I
think that's a bad thing. But you

1261
01:18:51.039 --> 01:18:55.159
want that option. I think it's
important to have that as an option because

1262
01:18:55.159 --> 01:18:57.479
when they had the pilots on Pilots
mode and then they added that to titan

1263
01:18:57.520 --> 01:19:00.239
Fall one, I think it was
a smart It was a cool fun change.

1264
01:19:00.760 --> 01:19:01.920
It was like, oh man,
look at this is crazy. They

1265
01:19:01.960 --> 01:19:04.039
turned it into like a little Call
of Duty thing or something. This is

1266
01:19:04.079 --> 01:19:06.439
super fun. At the same time, it's a cool side thing. Yeah,

1267
01:19:06.479 --> 01:19:09.920
it's a cool side thing, right, but I should not be the

1268
01:19:09.960 --> 01:19:13.720
main may be wrong, but I
feel like somebody was telling me recently that

1269
01:19:13.800 --> 01:19:15.640
if you look in on titan Fall
one, now like a large bulk of

1270
01:19:15.680 --> 01:19:19.079
the players are playing that pilot mode. Yeah. I think that's really that.

1271
01:19:19.239 --> 01:19:23.159
That is the thing that happened is
that they made the game with the

1272
01:19:23.199 --> 01:19:27.039
cool robots in it, and then
at some point people said like like death,

1273
01:19:27.199 --> 01:19:30.359
so robots got kind of sideline.
And I wonder, so maybe other

1274
01:19:30.359 --> 01:19:31.960
people have the same experience that I
did, where in the early days of

1275
01:19:32.000 --> 01:19:35.560
titan Fall, I was really good
at being in the robot, and then

1276
01:19:35.680 --> 01:19:39.079
everyone got really good at being in
the robot, and now those things are

1277
01:19:39.119 --> 01:19:43.479
just dead immediately. And with the
grappling hook in titan Fall too, it's

1278
01:19:43.520 --> 01:19:45.600
way easier to even get on top
of the robot to you know, start

1279
01:19:45.720 --> 01:19:53.239
the process of murdering it than it
was before. Though that process is different

1280
01:19:53.279 --> 01:19:57.199
with batteries and all. You know, like that stuff has changed. So

1281
01:19:57.920 --> 01:20:01.560
I don't know, like the robots, the Titans feel weaker maybe than they

1282
01:20:01.640 --> 01:20:09.000
ever have and so like that stuff's
a little strange, so I could so

1283
01:20:09.159 --> 01:20:12.239
I think that's why players started to
gravitate towards the pilot modes is because like,

1284
01:20:12.279 --> 01:20:14.960
yeah, you know, like even
when I was calling down my Titan.

1285
01:20:14.960 --> 01:20:15.600
At some point when I was when
I was hot and heavy into Titan

1286
01:20:15.680 --> 01:20:19.119
Fall one, I got to a
point where I just stopped getting in the

1287
01:20:19.239 --> 01:20:23.680
Titans. I called it down because
it'll it has ai, it'll go and

1288
01:20:23.760 --> 01:20:27.359
it'll distract people and there's stuff around
that, but it just used it like

1289
01:20:27.399 --> 01:20:29.880
a turret totally. Yeah. Yeah, I found that I was I was

1290
01:20:29.960 --> 01:20:32.439
more effective out of the Titan.
I can see that. So you know,

1291
01:20:32.560 --> 01:20:35.600
if they're adding wall running Titans and
Titans with swords and also other stuff,

1292
01:20:36.279 --> 01:20:39.800
then that's the stuff that none of
that is in the ten. None

1293
01:20:39.840 --> 01:20:44.720
of that's okays. Yeah, So
if that stuff's in there now, it's

1294
01:20:44.720 --> 01:20:47.640
anime. No, it's yeah kind
of you know. Then then I think

1295
01:20:47.720 --> 01:20:51.119
that that changes the role of the
Titan in matches and stuff like that,

1296
01:20:51.279 --> 01:20:57.760
or could potentially make really meaningful changes
to that gameplay. But that's not there

1297
01:20:57.800 --> 01:21:00.640
yet, so it's hard to know. I think it's really promising, you

1298
01:21:00.720 --> 01:21:03.600
know. Yeah, I understand why
people are like kind of shitting on it,

1299
01:21:03.760 --> 01:21:09.840
but I still think that the core
of that thing is really well made,

1300
01:21:10.359 --> 01:21:14.239
and if they if the rest of
that game is what I hope it

1301
01:21:14.359 --> 01:21:16.600
is, everything will be fine.
If that is indicative of the style rest

1302
01:21:16.600 --> 01:21:18.119
of the game, We're like,
oh, two of our three modes.

1303
01:21:18.239 --> 01:21:21.800
I don't really have this stuff in
it. I think that that's hitting in

1304
01:21:21.800 --> 01:21:26.680
the wrong direction. But we'll see. It's close, right October and October

1305
01:21:27.640 --> 01:21:30.680
jeeze, man, the fuck happened
to this year? Right? Yeah?

1306
01:21:30.840 --> 01:21:33.039
No, it's like Summers over,
Like there was. I was taking out

1307
01:21:33.039 --> 01:21:39.119
my garbage cans this morning and they
were just soaking wet from misty Summers did

1308
01:21:39.239 --> 01:21:42.159
done. There was a bunch of
traffic today. Schools back in. As

1309
01:21:42.199 --> 01:21:45.079
we said, the season of Madden
does taunt us. John Madden ruins everything,

1310
01:21:46.159 --> 01:21:50.199
Drew you play anything else before we
move on into news, I've been

1311
01:21:54.520 --> 01:22:00.640
getting and modifying explane. What do
you know? Explane It's basically what came

1312
01:22:01.000 --> 01:22:05.960
after Microsoft stopped making flight simulator.
So I think Microsoft last made their real

1313
01:22:06.319 --> 01:22:13.319
like hey you want to fly a
seven thirty seven flight simulator or something,

1314
01:22:13.520 --> 01:22:17.000
and they came out with Microsoft Flight
Simulator x X X x X and where

1315
01:22:17.000 --> 01:22:19.239
didn't get X? Where did flight
fit in? There? DIDN'TY do that?

1316
01:22:19.279 --> 01:22:21.680
Maybe that was the one. I
think X is maybe the last like

1317
01:22:23.399 --> 01:22:26.359
real one one, And then Microsoft
Flight came out. It was like it's

1318
01:22:26.399 --> 01:22:28.880
free to play, weird thing that
did not you could not click all the

1319
01:22:28.920 --> 01:22:30.439
buttons in the cock It was like
a bad pilot wing. Yeah, it's

1320
01:22:30.479 --> 01:22:32.520
like why would you want that?
So x Plane came in was like,

1321
01:22:32.560 --> 01:22:35.239
all right, listen, we know
all you weird people out there need one

1322
01:22:35.239 --> 01:22:39.079
of these games, these cockpits.
Already, you built a simulator in your

1323
01:22:39.079 --> 01:22:42.239
garage, you need something to do
on it, right. So that's basically

1324
01:22:42.319 --> 01:22:45.680
what x plane is, and it's
been around forever and it's one of those

1325
01:22:45.760 --> 01:22:51.600
games that just keeps existing and people
keep modifying it, uh and upgrading it

1326
01:22:53.520 --> 01:22:57.960
and selling their mods so you can
buy like it comes with, uh,

1327
01:22:58.159 --> 01:23:00.680
this plane, but if you want
a better version of that plane, you

1328
01:23:00.800 --> 01:23:04.039
go to this other third party guy
and he's selling his for like twenty bucks.

1329
01:23:04.199 --> 01:23:10.520
Joe made a better plane pretty much. Yea market like plane mods,

1330
01:23:10.680 --> 01:23:13.800
yeah, I mean they don't discourage
it. There's like a store and everything.

1331
01:23:13.880 --> 01:23:15.319
Yeah, there are people selling mods
for a old flight simulator for that

1332
01:23:15.359 --> 01:23:17.840
matter. Oh yes, I was
watching a video about some like World War

1333
01:23:17.960 --> 01:23:21.680
one flight. Okay, it's like
a thirty dollars mod for one of the

1334
01:23:21.760 --> 01:23:26.000
old versions of flight simulators. Oh
yeah, I know you're time. Are

1335
01:23:26.039 --> 01:23:28.680
they good at facilitating that stuff in
game? Like? Is there it?

1336
01:23:28.840 --> 01:23:32.960
Is there a centralized hub for these
third parties. There's a website so there's

1337
01:23:32.960 --> 01:23:36.000
also like a user generated content thing
where you can download stuff for free.

1338
01:23:38.119 --> 01:23:42.319
Like, oh, I uh remodeled
San Francisco so it looks more accurate,

1339
01:23:42.399 --> 01:23:47.079
you know that sort of thing.
Right, Yes, he looked down and

1340
01:23:47.279 --> 01:23:51.840
see all the tech people and busses
on the roads, right and straight the

1341
01:23:51.920 --> 01:23:56.479
fucking busses. If you even saw
that World War One mode, then you

1342
01:23:56.560 --> 01:24:01.720
can but the sopwith camel yeah,
uh, but yeah, it's it's it's

1343
01:24:01.960 --> 01:24:05.439
very I don't want to say rudimentary, but it's you gotta you gotta do

1344
01:24:05.520 --> 01:24:08.199
some work. You gotta want it. Yeah, you gotta want it.

1345
01:24:09.039 --> 01:24:15.960
And basically why I've been diving into
this is because I'm I'm finally giving I

1346
01:24:15.119 --> 01:24:20.359
did that, yeah, but I'm
finally giving a shot to getting my palace

1347
01:24:20.439 --> 01:24:23.399
lights. I knew it. I
knew that's where this was going. You're

1348
01:24:23.399 --> 01:24:30.000
gonna start logging hours. And I
talked to my instructor about it, and

1349
01:24:30.039 --> 01:24:31.279
he didn't really know much about flight
sims, but he did tell me,

1350
01:24:31.439 --> 01:24:36.119
like, hey, most of your
hours are going to come from landing,

1351
01:24:36.439 --> 01:24:41.920
because landing is apparently the hardest part
of everything. What the first lesson we

1352
01:24:42.000 --> 01:24:45.560
did, he allowed me to land, taxi, take off, land,

1353
01:24:46.079 --> 01:24:53.039
Yeah, but I did everything on
that first lesson except for land. I

1354
01:24:53.119 --> 01:24:56.960
did end up landing on the second
one, but it wasn't as clean as

1355
01:24:57.039 --> 01:25:00.079
I would have liked. So I'm
hoping that with xplane, I can I

1356
01:25:00.159 --> 01:25:03.439
can practice landing. So I bought. I bought so I already had a

1357
01:25:03.640 --> 01:25:08.640
hotel set up, the joystick in
the throttle, but like the Cessna one

1358
01:25:08.800 --> 01:25:11.640
seventy two that I'm flying doesn't have
that. They have a yoke, right,

1359
01:25:11.720 --> 01:25:14.960
it looks more like a steering wheel. So the same company that made

1360
01:25:15.039 --> 01:25:16.760
my joysticks, c H Products,
also makes a yoke, So I bought

1361
01:25:16.800 --> 01:25:20.520
one of those and bolted it to
my desk. Uh, and I'm using

1362
01:25:20.640 --> 01:25:25.920
xplane to practice landing. Excited kind
of a plane? Are you going up

1363
01:25:25.960 --> 01:25:28.520
in? It's a Cessna one seven
two, so it's like a it's a

1364
01:25:29.159 --> 01:25:34.359
it's a four seater with one engine
up front, the over overwing kind very

1365
01:25:34.439 --> 01:25:38.199
stable. If you get a little
electronic headsets or you can talk to each

1366
01:25:38.199 --> 01:25:42.760
other and yeah, here there's all
there's all this gear that I bought as

1367
01:25:43.039 --> 01:25:46.279
uh, you know that I need
to have as a as a student pilot.

1368
01:25:46.319 --> 01:25:50.640
And that's been sort of fun too. I bought the headsets you've probably

1369
01:25:50.640 --> 01:25:56.079
seen them in movies there like that
the gigantic cacreen like a lime green with

1370
01:25:56.439 --> 01:26:00.640
the microphone. I bought a knee
pad or not any pad, any board

1371
01:26:00.720 --> 01:26:05.079
that you strap around your leg and
then you put a clipboard into. I

1372
01:26:05.199 --> 01:26:12.000
bought a flashlight two. It had
to it has to have normal light so

1373
01:26:12.119 --> 01:26:15.279
you can like look in the engine
compartment and like see if there's a bird's

1374
01:26:15.319 --> 01:26:17.720
nest in there, or something.
But then also it has to have red

1375
01:26:17.880 --> 01:26:21.000
light so if you're flying at night, you don't lose your night vision.

1376
01:26:21.920 --> 01:26:28.199
So I bought a flashlight that stargazers
use. Okay, that does both,

1377
01:26:29.199 --> 01:26:33.920
and you can regulate the intensity of
each button so or each each light.

1378
01:26:34.319 --> 01:26:39.840
So that's been that's been really awesome, man. Yeah, look forward to

1379
01:26:39.920 --> 01:26:43.399
some future flight updates. How many
hundreds of hours you need the log before

1380
01:26:43.439 --> 01:26:46.079
you are like our licensed pilots,
So that's the weird part, Like the

1381
01:26:46.319 --> 01:26:49.199
range, you ask anyone, you
get a different answer, because it all

1382
01:26:49.279 --> 01:26:54.800
really depends on your knowledge of the
subject and how well you retain the information

1383
01:26:54.880 --> 01:26:58.560
that you need to and how long
it takes you to master something. Okay,

1384
01:26:58.640 --> 01:27:00.039
I thought it was one of the
things where it's like you need you

1385
01:27:00.119 --> 01:27:03.439
have two hundred hours before we'll license
you or from there are certain thresholds you

1386
01:27:03.520 --> 01:27:05.479
have to hit. I don't know
what those are. I think you have

1387
01:27:05.560 --> 01:27:10.479
to you reach a certain number of
instructed hours to do your solo flights,

1388
01:27:10.520 --> 01:27:13.760
and then a certain number of solo
flights to take your final test. Yeah,

1389
01:27:13.800 --> 01:27:15.199
so is it more about passing tests
than it is having like an hour

1390
01:27:15.359 --> 01:27:18.760
count. It's it's both but I
think you are going to hit your our

1391
01:27:18.800 --> 01:27:25.000
account before you are ready to take
the test. But I'm hoping that practicing

1392
01:27:25.039 --> 01:27:30.079
we explain, we'll cut down on
the amount of money I need to spend

1393
01:27:30.079 --> 01:27:31.720
because it is a lot I put
it. I put aside, been spending

1394
01:27:31.880 --> 01:27:36.479
or a saving up for this because
it is a really expensive abbec. It's

1395
01:27:36.479 --> 01:27:41.840
going to take me a while.
But I'm hoping that they don't work out.

1396
01:27:42.520 --> 01:27:47.880
That's so cool. That's learning a
real thing. What you're trying to

1397
01:27:48.560 --> 01:27:53.479
Okay, what's all right? What's
the end goal? So you're a license

1398
01:27:53.560 --> 01:27:56.239
pilot, you don't own a plane? Is the end goal? Then?

1399
01:27:56.319 --> 01:27:59.039
Like, well I need to have
and store my own plane. That would

1400
01:27:59.039 --> 01:28:02.439
be sweet, but that's super really
expensive. Yeah, like a jet,

1401
01:28:02.560 --> 01:28:06.960
like you like least plane for just
like Hey, I'm a pilot, I'm

1402
01:28:08.000 --> 01:28:10.680
gonna you can you can go to
Phoenix for the day. Yeah, you

1403
01:28:10.760 --> 01:28:13.800
can rent plane. My goals too, well, my first goal, uh

1404
01:28:14.399 --> 01:28:18.239
is to flight it like Tahoe okay, uh, and you can rent planes,

1405
01:28:18.760 --> 01:28:23.479
but they're also clubs or like people
will go off like multiple people will

1406
01:28:23.520 --> 01:28:28.279
go in on one plane. But
yeah, it's really expensive to uh to

1407
01:28:29.279 --> 01:28:30.560
maintain a plane. I was gonna
ask if you have to pay for all

1408
01:28:30.600 --> 01:28:34.560
the maintenance and upkeep or it's there
are there like FAA people that will like

1409
01:28:35.119 --> 01:28:41.119
certific There's there's certain like rules about
like, uh, you know, every

1410
01:28:41.159 --> 01:28:45.880
thousand hours this part has to be
serviced or whatever. But so the club

1411
01:28:45.960 --> 01:28:50.520
I fly with uh maintains all of
that and I only pay for I don't

1412
01:28:50.760 --> 01:28:54.399
think I I do pay for the
rental, it's in a block fee,

1413
01:28:54.960 --> 01:28:59.439
but I also pay for the fuel. And I think they don't actually make

1414
01:28:59.560 --> 01:29:04.880
much march on the rental because the
maintenance costs are so high. So rental

1415
01:29:04.960 --> 01:29:06.960
seems like the way to go.
I don't know, it's wild man.

1416
01:29:08.359 --> 01:29:15.399
Yeah, I've had to adjust my
sleep schedule pretty drastically because they recommend going

1417
01:29:16.279 --> 01:29:20.000
multiple times a week, and with
a job, that's tough. Uh So,

1418
01:29:20.439 --> 01:29:23.880
I wait a minute, were you
in the air this morning? No,

1419
01:29:24.119 --> 01:29:26.439
not this morning. It's it's been
really foggy. So going in the

1420
01:29:26.520 --> 01:29:28.920
morning has been really tough. But
that's what I'm trying to do. I

1421
01:29:29.640 --> 01:29:32.520
do six am to nine am lessons, so I'm getting up at four thirty,

1422
01:29:32.760 --> 01:29:35.039
which means they have to go to
sleep at eight thirty. Wow,

1423
01:29:35.800 --> 01:29:40.560
some dedication. Yeah, holy crap, but it's it's working. Also.

1424
01:29:40.640 --> 01:29:43.720
Then I drive in and then I
use one of those park your own car

1425
01:29:44.000 --> 01:29:47.239
services. So I pull up to
the office, a guy meets me and

1426
01:29:47.239 --> 01:29:50.319
then takes my car and parks it
somewhere. And then when I'm ready,

1427
01:29:50.359 --> 01:29:54.720
I say I'm work is done,
and then they come drop my car back

1428
01:29:54.720 --> 01:29:58.600
off and I drive home. Yea. So it's this weird like clockwork thing

1429
01:29:58.720 --> 01:30:03.319
that I've made work. But it's
your lifestyles insane. Next next packsacks,

1430
01:30:03.840 --> 01:30:09.680
Yeah, I would do that.
Would you do that? I would do

1431
01:30:09.760 --> 01:30:11.960
that? Okay, yeah, are
you Are you ultimately gonna be able to

1432
01:30:11.960 --> 01:30:16.199
fly a jet or just prop uh? So when you get your private license,

1433
01:30:17.039 --> 01:30:24.079
you are able to fly a single
engine plane. Not for money.

1434
01:30:24.640 --> 01:30:27.840
You can get a commercial license and
then people can pay you for your services

1435
01:30:28.039 --> 01:30:30.920
and then if to upgrade, you've
got to get a dated from there,

1436
01:30:30.920 --> 01:30:35.079
it's like certification. So multi engine
is a certification. Jet I think is

1437
01:30:35.079 --> 01:30:41.359
a certification. I think there's also
a certification for like complex aircraft, which

1438
01:30:41.399 --> 01:30:44.479
I think means that you have landing
gear or I don't know. I'm still

1439
01:30:44.479 --> 01:30:47.560
in like the beginning stages of exploring
all of this stuff. But there's a

1440
01:30:47.640 --> 01:30:50.960
lot. I bought some textbooks,
you know, they're big type of thing

1441
01:30:51.039 --> 01:30:55.319
that makes video games seem very trivial. I mean, honestly, playing stuff

1442
01:30:55.359 --> 01:30:58.079
like DCS has really really helped.
Yeah, sure, I can see how

1443
01:30:58.159 --> 01:31:00.680
there's the tie in there. Yeah, but we wish you good luck,

1444
01:31:00.840 --> 01:31:05.119
thank you. That's quite an undertaking. It's time to talk about some stuff.

1445
01:31:05.640 --> 01:31:09.760
I'm gonna say what it is till
Jason's ready down there. Oh man,

1446
01:31:10.039 --> 01:31:12.640
it's new, it's so ready.
I don't even have to say it's

1447
01:31:13.640 --> 01:31:20.039
holy crap. Good. That's some
impressive production eering down there. Take Brad

1448
01:31:20.079 --> 01:31:23.720
out, to take Brad out of
the loop on the thing. We just

1449
01:31:23.800 --> 01:31:26.880
have to don't even have to say
news. Let's get a vocaloid to read

1450
01:31:26.880 --> 01:31:30.680
the news. Okay, we should
actually should literally just type sentences and have

1451
01:31:30.800 --> 01:31:36.279
it say or sing them. It's
okay, but do you have a word

1452
01:31:36.319 --> 01:31:40.359
about some inflection curve or something.
I think you're seeing all the phonemes and

1453
01:31:40.520 --> 01:31:44.119
all the other things and then having
to plot out the words that you're I

1454
01:31:44.159 --> 01:31:47.079
don't know that it's actually about just
feeding it lines and having it. It

1455
01:31:47.199 --> 01:31:49.880
might be should maybe you can do
that, and then you have to massage

1456
01:31:49.920 --> 01:31:51.640
it if you want it to sound
right. But we don't want it to

1457
01:31:51.680 --> 01:31:56.760
sound right. We should buy a
vocaloid. I probably, I'm probably gonna.

1458
01:31:57.159 --> 01:32:00.199
I'm probably gonna buy it. Yeah, that's really good. Now I

1459
01:32:00.680 --> 01:32:02.560
already have all that. Are you
gonna? Are you gonna audition your vocaloids?

1460
01:32:03.600 --> 01:32:06.920
I think they want. I think
if you want one that is English

1461
01:32:06.960 --> 01:32:12.279
speaking first, the choices are more
limited than if you want a Japanese.

1462
01:32:12.319 --> 01:32:15.640
Oh, you can't just get Miku. I mean she speaks primarily Japanese.

1463
01:32:15.680 --> 01:32:18.960
I think you could feed the same
sounds to her. I think it would.

1464
01:32:19.039 --> 01:32:21.920
Yeah, I don't know that it
would come out the same way she

1465
01:32:21.960 --> 01:32:25.880
has tuned for Japan. There's a
there's a new Miku game close on the

1466
01:32:25.960 --> 01:32:29.399
horizon. Yes, that is,
by the way. That is how all

1467
01:32:29.439 --> 01:32:31.199
this started is that we got a
code for the one that is out on

1468
01:32:31.279 --> 01:32:34.239
the thirtieth and I was like,
man, what what about vocal OIDs?

1469
01:32:34.279 --> 01:32:38.800
And then why am I playing this
game? Why is there so much on

1470
01:32:38.880 --> 01:32:41.560
screen text in this game when it's
a robot that could say anything? Oh?

1471
01:32:41.600 --> 01:32:43.640
Well, And then I realize like, oh, they're tuned for a

1472
01:32:43.720 --> 01:32:45.880
language. That's why, that's why
they didn't dub this into English. That

1473
01:32:45.960 --> 01:32:54.640
Project quick Look was defining drop yourself
in because Project X is out this month

1474
01:32:54.680 --> 01:32:57.920
of my favorite videos to ever be
a part of. All right, let's

1475
01:32:57.920 --> 01:33:01.960
read headlines, let's talk about news. Video game industry's inability to keep secrets

1476
01:33:02.000 --> 01:33:08.399
continues to just we're terrible, blow
my mind. They should give up more

1477
01:33:08.479 --> 01:33:11.560
like the movie you see, like
you know what this actually isn't ye worth

1478
01:33:11.680 --> 01:33:14.520
keeping a secret. We're just gonna
announce this thing as we start to work

1479
01:33:14.560 --> 01:33:18.840
on it. Yeah, and stay
tuned in two years. Yeah, it's

1480
01:33:19.119 --> 01:33:24.960
all signs points to their being not
one but two new PlayStations announced at this

1481
01:33:25.000 --> 01:33:28.760
thing on September seven, because one
of them is out there in the wild

1482
01:33:28.840 --> 01:33:36.720
now PlayStation four, Slim God stolen
or something. Ultimately, I believe it

1483
01:33:36.760 --> 01:33:40.720
got auctioned off. There's a guy
in the UK that has it now Yea

1484
01:33:41.159 --> 01:33:44.119
is in possession of it. I
thought it was like it was like there

1485
01:33:44.199 --> 01:33:46.479
was a guy like some kind of
crazist thing where they're like, hey,

1486
01:33:46.479 --> 01:33:48.199
I got this thing. It's not
going to be out in the shops for

1487
01:33:48.239 --> 01:33:49.800
three weeks. I want to say, I want to say it was on

1488
01:33:49.880 --> 01:33:54.119
and the guy's like, the buyer
was like, you fucking shut up,

1489
01:33:54.159 --> 01:33:56.760
prove it. Yeah, I want
to pick. I think I think gum

1490
01:33:56.880 --> 01:33:59.720
Tree was the site that he went
through, was an auction site and then

1491
01:34:00.199 --> 01:34:01.840
ended up with it. Euro Gamer
went out to that person's house and turned

1492
01:34:01.880 --> 01:34:04.359
it on and went like, yeah, but what I mean is prior to

1493
01:34:04.479 --> 01:34:08.880
that auction, it's not clear where
it came from. Yeah, there's this

1494
01:34:09.000 --> 01:34:13.359
thing, presumably it's it's a it's
PS four Slim if you haven't seen it.

1495
01:34:13.600 --> 01:34:15.800
It is a smaller PlayStation four.
It's not the Neo. It is

1496
01:34:15.840 --> 01:34:19.000
just a smaller PlayStation four, and
not even that much smaller. It's like

1497
01:34:19.079 --> 01:34:24.359
it's it's like shorter, it's like
not as tall, not quite as thick,

1498
01:34:24.479 --> 01:34:27.840
I mean smaller. Yeah, there
there's some there picks out there of

1499
01:34:28.159 --> 01:34:30.359
the new one stacked on top of
the original PS four. You can you

1500
01:34:30.399 --> 01:34:34.439
can see the size comparison. But
I mean, it seems pretty much like

1501
01:34:34.520 --> 01:34:38.279
a guarantee that this thing was going
to go on sale or will go on

1502
01:34:38.399 --> 01:34:42.960
sale as of that event. That
seems like you assume they're gonna go comeing

1503
01:34:43.000 --> 01:34:45.760
out of this event going like and
it's on store shelf. Now I'm surprised.

1504
01:34:45.800 --> 01:34:50.000
I thought that they would have held
off a new base PS four until

1505
01:34:50.239 --> 01:34:56.840
they had maybe cleared stock on the
existing Yeah. So I don't know if

1506
01:34:56.840 --> 01:34:59.520
you've seen, there have been some
reports for the last few weeks coming out

1507
01:34:59.520 --> 01:35:02.199
of Japan that they are supply tapering
down on and on production. Specifically,

1508
01:35:02.239 --> 01:35:05.520
they're like they're not manufacturing the old
PS four like they were, Yeah,

1509
01:35:05.800 --> 01:35:09.279
and that there are retailers in Japan
that are straight up sold out of them

1510
01:35:09.319 --> 01:35:11.119
at this point. So, yeah, we haven't had the white one in

1511
01:35:11.199 --> 01:35:14.399
two weeks, like the that we
just sold our last black one that some

1512
01:35:14.520 --> 01:35:18.760
quotes coming out of So maybe maybe
their supplies are tighter and more constrained than

1513
01:35:18.760 --> 01:35:20.560
I thought they would be. But
I figured there would be some kind of

1514
01:35:20.600 --> 01:35:26.159
grace period where they would announced the
neo and they would start blowing out base

1515
01:35:26.279 --> 01:35:30.399
level PS four's too as a result
of like, hey, we're kind of

1516
01:35:30.399 --> 01:35:33.479
shifting to the neo and then maybe
have a slim as like a new low,

1517
01:35:33.720 --> 01:35:36.920
lower priced entry level for people.
Yeah, it seems like they've preempted

1518
01:35:36.960 --> 01:35:40.119
that, like that's already started to
dry up. And I guess this thing

1519
01:35:40.159 --> 01:35:43.119
will be out sting with them later. But somebody's got one, now weird.

1520
01:35:43.199 --> 01:35:45.760
There are videos of it out there, although they're getting taken down off

1521
01:35:45.760 --> 01:35:49.079
of YouTube as they go up.
Well, then it's obviously fake, clearly.

1522
01:35:49.319 --> 01:35:51.239
I bet you're right. Yeah,
you're a you're a gamer. Literally

1523
01:35:51.279 --> 01:35:55.199
took a field trip to the house
of the person who bought this thing pretty

1524
01:35:55.720 --> 01:35:58.720
to verify that it was real.
It looks weird. Yeah, it looks

1525
01:35:58.760 --> 01:36:02.760
like an ancient alien artifact or something
you'd unearth. It's stonehenge. I guess

1526
01:36:02.800 --> 01:36:06.840
I could see that. There's something
strange and slavish about it. It's rounded,

1527
01:36:06.960 --> 01:36:10.319
and it's just like a weird It's
got a lot of rounded corners.

1528
01:36:10.319 --> 01:36:12.479
There are parts about it that reminds
me of the Xbox One S, like

1529
01:36:12.600 --> 01:36:15.680
some of the buttons and some of
that stuff, like the USB ports.

1530
01:36:15.159 --> 01:36:17.000
Yeah, anyway, I don't know. Something about it reminded me of the

1531
01:36:17.039 --> 01:36:18.880
S a little bit. Yeah,
it looks okay. I think the S

1532
01:36:19.039 --> 01:36:23.239
is a better looking console because it's
not a rhombus. It's just that.

1533
01:36:23.359 --> 01:36:25.359
Yeah, so this it's kind of
hard to tell for some of these photos,

1534
01:36:25.399 --> 01:36:28.359
but this is still a rhombus,
right, it's still got slanted front.

1535
01:36:30.760 --> 01:36:31.960
I think so from the photo that
but it sounds like it lost the

1536
01:36:32.000 --> 01:36:36.800
optical port. That's kind of the
big difference. Really pretty much still the

1537
01:36:36.880 --> 01:36:41.600
same, still the same thing,
other than other than that, haven't I

1538
01:36:41.680 --> 01:36:44.560
mean I don't use an optical port, and haven't I do ears? But

1539
01:36:45.479 --> 01:36:50.720
well, time to buy a new
receiver live in the now HDMI. Perhaps

1540
01:36:50.760 --> 01:36:55.119
you've heard of it. I'm excited
about the physical buttons though. Yeah,

1541
01:36:55.479 --> 01:37:02.000
high definition motherfucking interfaces with that stands
for what else is new with this thing?

1542
01:37:02.039 --> 01:37:06.279
There's new controller, a new model
of controller. Yeah you do not

1543
01:37:06.600 --> 01:37:09.399
no, no, not a fan? Yeah, I don't know. I

1544
01:37:09.399 --> 01:37:12.560
don't need a light bar. Yeah, it seems like the one in my

1545
01:37:12.640 --> 01:37:15.039
direction. The one difference is there's
a little strip along the top of the

1546
01:37:15.079 --> 01:37:16.520
touch pad, so you can now
see what color the light bar is on

1547
01:37:16.640 --> 01:37:19.520
top of the controller over. I
always look for that though, Like I

1548
01:37:19.720 --> 01:37:23.640
I kind of see the value in
having a light up there, because I

1549
01:37:23.680 --> 01:37:26.640
always like, I look like a
dufe whenever I turn out the control and

1550
01:37:26.680 --> 01:37:29.279
I'm like, did this actually turn
on? What? What is it?

1551
01:37:29.319 --> 01:37:32.439
Sink? So it doesn't reflect off
the teeth, that's still there the flight.

1552
01:37:32.600 --> 01:37:36.079
The front light bar is totally still
there. The front light bar needs

1553
01:37:36.119 --> 01:37:41.199
to be there because it's for tracking
purposes for all of those games that use

1554
01:37:42.960 --> 01:37:46.039
two of them. Uh, you
would still need that there to maintain compatibility.

1555
01:37:46.159 --> 01:37:47.720
Yeah, but you know there are
some games that like, oh,

1556
01:37:47.720 --> 01:37:50.199
when your shields are down at changes
color, and that's like a really cool

1557
01:37:50.279 --> 01:37:54.000
idea that I never see because I'm
not looking at that fucking thing. So

1558
01:37:54.319 --> 01:37:57.000
I guess like having it point in
your way makes some sense, but it's

1559
01:37:57.079 --> 01:37:59.680
very small. It seems like it'd
be pretty easy to ignore. But also

1560
01:37:59.720 --> 01:38:00.640
I think that if they said,
like, hey, by the way,

1561
01:38:00.880 --> 01:38:03.880
we've decided to take the colored light
bar and the speaker out of this thing

1562
01:38:04.079 --> 01:38:08.680
at no point what I like,
protest as long as they made it cheaper

1563
01:38:08.720 --> 01:38:11.880
as a result, would have been
fine. The King of Fighters uses it.

1564
01:38:12.920 --> 01:38:15.760
Occasionally. I hear random voices in
Japanese coming out of my controller and

1565
01:38:15.760 --> 01:38:16.399
I'm like, what the fuck are
you saying? Why are you saying?

1566
01:38:16.520 --> 01:38:21.720
I think I have that stuff like
turned off, like the radio transmissions come

1567
01:38:21.760 --> 01:38:25.039
out of the controller. And that's
if you if you're the sort of person

1568
01:38:25.079 --> 01:38:29.640
that wears headphones or are recording quick
look style videos. Having stuff suddenly come

1569
01:38:29.640 --> 01:38:30.479
out of the speaker, you're like, fuck, what stop? No,

1570
01:38:31.119 --> 01:38:34.239
And sometimes getting that stuff to actually
come out of the TV is not as

1571
01:38:34.279 --> 01:38:39.159
simple as just turning down the volume
on the controllers. It is smart enough

1572
01:38:39.159 --> 01:38:41.760
if you have headphones plug into control
or put everything through this, yes,

1573
01:38:42.000 --> 01:38:44.960
yeah, but but not not so
much for recording, right. Uh,

1574
01:38:45.159 --> 01:38:48.560
that's kind of it's along and the
short of this thing. It's a smaller

1575
01:38:48.640 --> 01:38:54.600
console of control, lightly different the
one the one that the Box Art does.

1576
01:38:54.640 --> 01:38:59.239
The Box trust doesn't necessarily mean that
that's the only skew. But did

1577
01:38:59.279 --> 01:39:02.520
we need this? Yeah? Because
because they can make them more cheaply.

1578
01:39:02.800 --> 01:39:06.439
Yeah, this is every console for
the last what fifteen years? Yeah,

1579
01:39:06.600 --> 01:39:11.359
plus twenty. I know, like
this is just part of the natural evolution

1580
01:39:11.399 --> 01:39:13.760
of a console. And if you
make the assumption for at some point,

1581
01:39:13.760 --> 01:39:16.000
if you make the assumption that the
Neo will come out right around the same

1582
01:39:16.159 --> 01:39:20.840
launch price of the PS four,
this was a cheaper thing. I hope,

1583
01:39:21.439 --> 01:39:26.960
I hope it'll push it. Oh, they can't even fifty I don't

1584
01:39:26.960 --> 01:39:30.000
know. You're probably right, you
are correct, you are morally right,

1585
01:39:30.319 --> 01:39:33.279
Yeah, but I don't know that
that's what they'll do. We have a

1586
01:39:33.640 --> 01:39:40.119
smaller, cheaper option, Jeff,
for you, but for the for those

1587
01:39:40.199 --> 01:39:45.960
people, yes, the bleeding edge
electronics fans with four K televisions. If

1588
01:39:45.000 --> 01:39:49.079
you want to be on the cutting
edge of technology, and I do five

1589
01:39:49.520 --> 01:39:56.479
nine dollars. No, no,
all right. So I was out and

1590
01:39:56.479 --> 01:40:00.399
about over the weekend and I stopped
in at the local best By. I

1591
01:40:00.479 --> 01:40:02.760
was curious to see if that had
any ten eighties in stock. They'd not

1592
01:40:03.119 --> 01:40:06.079
last time I was there at ten
seventy. I was just wanted to look

1593
01:40:06.079 --> 01:40:09.359
at the shelves. They were all
bare. Those things are starting to get

1594
01:40:09.399 --> 01:40:11.640
easier to come by. I was
looking at sen seventies over the week I'm

1595
01:40:11.680 --> 01:40:15.479
very close to starting to buy my
PC parts, so I just need to

1596
01:40:15.560 --> 01:40:18.199
get that done. So anyway,
but I went and looked at that LG

1597
01:40:19.560 --> 01:40:28.039
crazy twenty four k HDR screen with
like their demo loop running on it,

1598
01:40:28.279 --> 01:40:30.920
and my wife was with me.
We both were looking at it, and

1599
01:40:30.520 --> 01:40:36.319
even she was just like like seized
up a little bit, staring at it,

1600
01:40:36.399 --> 01:40:43.760
like what the fuck is crazy?
It looks crazy there, And but

1601
01:40:43.880 --> 01:40:45.079
she also made the point of like
I don't want and there was like part

1602
01:40:45.079 --> 01:40:47.800
of the demo loop was like some
fucking DJ and then all these colored lights

1603
01:40:47.840 --> 01:40:50.399
and you're like, this is actually
like the darkness and light and stuff like,

1604
01:40:50.479 --> 01:40:55.279
this is an effective demo of the
thing. But this fucker's pores are

1605
01:40:55.359 --> 01:40:59.720
being seen at a resolution that I
do not want to see. So if

1606
01:40:59.800 --> 01:41:02.800
like all four K content is is
like another bump up and resolution that makes

1607
01:41:02.880 --> 01:41:06.640
makeup irrelevant, like the way HD
did from SD, Well, everybody's rider

1608
01:41:06.760 --> 01:41:09.479
is just going to add another ten
feet. It's like, all right,

1609
01:41:09.840 --> 01:41:12.239
yeah, four K cameras now have
to be thirty feet away from me.

1610
01:41:12.399 --> 01:41:15.119
Yeah that stuff, that was stuff
really stuck out. But just like I'm

1611
01:41:15.199 --> 01:41:18.920
staring at this dude's stubble and that's
awesome that this picture is that clear.

1612
01:41:19.560 --> 01:41:24.720
But no one needs to see this. No one needs to see this.

1613
01:41:25.119 --> 01:41:27.800
Yeah, four K pornography, that's
what I'm saying. Let's get it,

1614
01:41:28.439 --> 01:41:32.199
that's what. Yeah. Yeah,
that's HDR. Yeah, h d R

1615
01:41:36.239 --> 01:41:43.960
for Drew. Yeah, PlayStation for
Slain in store soon soon two weeks.

1616
01:41:44.119 --> 01:41:46.439
Yeah. Probably. I mean this, this thing wouldn't exist, it wouldn't

1617
01:41:46.439 --> 01:41:48.399
be out, it would not be
any part of the channel. If it

1618
01:41:48.479 --> 01:41:53.239
wasn't on its way. It wasn't
shelves about ready to be sold. So

1619
01:41:53.399 --> 01:41:56.800
yeah, look forward soon. I
guess September seventh is that event, right?

1620
01:41:56.920 --> 01:41:59.880
I believe we intends to sit down
and watch that thing. Yeah,

1621
01:42:00.039 --> 01:42:02.760
we're gonna watch this four K content
on a stream that is definitely no higher

1622
01:42:02.800 --> 01:42:10.039
than ten eighty uh, and then
restream and restream it. Yeah, the

1623
01:42:10.119 --> 01:42:12.560
power of the Neo. We're really
people on the ground though, right,

1624
01:42:12.720 --> 01:42:15.840
yes, yes, Alexon, maybe
Elsa Vinni will be at that event in

1625
01:42:15.880 --> 01:42:17.399
New York, so we could get
some fruit. We should just get some

1626
01:42:17.479 --> 01:42:20.319
hot reactions from them straight out the
Yeah, hopefully we can get them on

1627
01:42:20.319 --> 01:42:24.039
the phone for that and say hey, it'll probably look better there, right,

1628
01:42:24.560 --> 01:42:27.079
they'll be like, yep, all
right, good talking to you.

1629
01:42:27.760 --> 01:42:32.239
Great stuff spoilers. Uh, some
other stony news happening. PlayStation Plus is

1630
01:42:32.279 --> 01:42:35.680
now more expensive? Is now going
to be sixty dollars a year as opposed

1631
01:42:35.680 --> 01:42:40.079
to fifty thought it was I'm not
I'm sorry, Yeah, I don't mean

1632
01:42:40.119 --> 01:42:44.359
it's that that is effective as of
today. It's I believe it's second is

1633
01:42:44.399 --> 01:42:47.159
when that price change will go into
effect. What new cool features are we

1634
01:42:47.199 --> 01:42:56.880
getting bred ten dollars more a month, changing market conditions. I believe it's

1635
01:42:56.920 --> 01:43:00.079
the same. Is literally the phrase
they used in there, thing. I

1636
01:43:00.159 --> 01:43:03.640
mean, you know, Netflix gets
more expensive, like these stuff happens.

1637
01:43:03.880 --> 01:43:08.399
I wish unprecedented, but okay,
it's not even I wish it would have

1638
01:43:08.479 --> 01:43:13.560
been smart for them to have come
up with something goal thing that they could

1639
01:43:13.600 --> 01:43:17.479
point at, even if it's just
an explanation of like, hey, you

1640
01:43:17.560 --> 01:43:21.479
know, like like something that was
a little like more specific than market conditions.

1641
01:43:21.720 --> 01:43:25.520
If it was like, hey,
you know, we've we've exhausted all

1642
01:43:25.560 --> 01:43:29.199
of the low tier free PlayStation plus
games we can get, so we have

1643
01:43:29.279 --> 01:43:32.119
to start raising the payouts to these
developers to try to get better games,

1644
01:43:32.640 --> 01:43:35.319
or hey, you know, hey, we were trying to enhance certain aspects

1645
01:43:35.319 --> 01:43:40.680
of the service and the money will
help us get there, like just even

1646
01:43:40.720 --> 01:43:44.840
if it was not necessarily specific in
that way, but it was just like,

1647
01:43:44.960 --> 01:43:46.760
hey, you know, we need
in order to kind of get this

1648
01:43:46.960 --> 01:43:50.760
service to the next level or kind
of you know, maintain this, like

1649
01:43:50.920 --> 01:43:56.319
some further explanation beyond market conditions,
because market conditions could be anything. Market

1650
01:43:56.359 --> 01:43:59.760
conditions could be We're so far ahead
of the Xbox, we know you'll pay

1651
01:43:59.800 --> 01:44:01.880
it, you know, like like
that's a market condition, you know,

1652
01:44:02.560 --> 01:44:06.199
so I just should should they just
have waited to announce this for the same

1653
01:44:06.279 --> 01:44:10.439
time that they said that Knack was
a free PlayStation Plus game. Absolutely,

1654
01:44:10.840 --> 01:44:13.640
it's like roll this out at the
same time. Here, here you go,

1655
01:44:13.760 --> 01:44:18.079
you a Nack. You got it, Nack two, and soon they're

1656
01:44:18.119 --> 01:44:20.199
going to announce it. Yeah,
seventh, I know it. I can

1657
01:44:20.239 --> 01:44:24.359
feel it. Think it back,
like like the only material, the only

1658
01:44:24.399 --> 01:44:27.800
material change to Plus has been the
cloud safe stuff, right like they up

1659
01:44:28.079 --> 01:44:30.920
right from a gig to ten gig. But other than that, I can't

1660
01:44:30.920 --> 01:44:33.199
really think of any way that that's
expensive service has changed. And I still

1661
01:44:33.239 --> 01:44:36.880
feel like that their services is fine. Yeah, yeah, it's not.

1662
01:44:38.199 --> 01:44:41.479
You know, I wish that the
speeds were faster, Yes, that I

1663
01:44:41.520 --> 01:44:45.439
mean, and then like one speeds
on PSN are fucking embarrassing at this point,

1664
01:44:45.520 --> 01:44:47.000
and I feel, you know,
anytime you say that on a Twitter

1665
01:44:47.279 --> 01:44:50.159
or service like that, you get
a bunch people going to it's like,

1666
01:44:50.239 --> 01:44:58.640
well, a, your definition of
fine is fucking wrong. And be you

1667
01:44:58.800 --> 01:45:01.800
Steam sometime you want to see some
download space, like like Steam will literally

1668
01:45:01.880 --> 01:45:05.600
max out my Internet connection. Yeah, same here and mine is I think

1669
01:45:05.600 --> 01:45:09.640
even faster than yours. Do you
have you sprung of you started down the

1670
01:45:09.720 --> 01:45:12.680
road of getting I have I have
signed up. I have signed a twelve

1671
01:45:12.720 --> 01:45:17.399
month contract for gigabit fiber and it
is getting installed Sonic, and it's getting

1672
01:45:17.399 --> 01:45:21.720
installed installed shortly after packs and I
could not be more excited. I was

1673
01:45:21.800 --> 01:45:27.399
with Sonic. So the head of
Sonic ran the junior college's internet service.

1674
01:45:28.279 --> 01:45:31.239
Uh back with Dane. Yes,
I was on their forums reading about the

1675
01:45:31.399 --> 01:45:36.039
rollout of fiber in San Francisco,
and the CEO was answering individual posts with

1676
01:45:36.199 --> 01:45:40.760
like very specific information about like here's
why we can't run it up your block.

1677
01:45:40.880 --> 01:45:45.560
Dane's why there in a very like
real way that is like fucking crazy.

1678
01:45:45.800 --> 01:45:46.399
He was like he was. He
was like, yes, there is

1679
01:45:46.479 --> 01:45:50.439
undergrounding on Geary Boulevard that prevents us
from deploying north of Geary, but the

1680
01:45:50.560 --> 01:45:55.039
south is fin like it was just
like dude and the CEO of this so

1681
01:45:55.600 --> 01:45:58.840
they started Sonic as like it was
a dial up only service as a shell

1682
01:45:59.000 --> 01:46:01.520
account. I think I'm maybe had
a slip account or a PPP account or

1683
01:46:01.520 --> 01:46:03.680
here we are the twenty fifth anniversary
of the launch of the World Wide Web

1684
01:46:03.720 --> 01:46:10.359
today as well, So this is
a timely and like so, the Junior

1685
01:46:10.399 --> 01:46:13.960
College had like two phones to dial
into to connect to the Internet, and

1686
01:46:14.000 --> 01:46:16.359
it was busy a lot. So
at some point he saw the opportunity and

1687
01:46:16.479 --> 01:46:19.680
launched his own internet service with a
very healthy us neet feed, which I

1688
01:46:19.680 --> 01:46:23.319
appreciate it. That's primarily what I
used the internet, fo sure, it

1689
01:46:23.399 --> 01:46:27.760
was to post text to When you
did that, I believe less about pornography,

1690
01:46:28.199 --> 01:46:30.359
sicko. I posted to the us
net about video games. That's right,

1691
01:46:30.399 --> 01:46:32.920
you did. It's right, you
did. You could find all those

1692
01:46:33.079 --> 01:46:38.199
all those posts are still out still
has all that my frantic my frantic post

1693
01:46:38.359 --> 01:46:42.640
from the late nineties when when when
I don't know whatever whatever, Jump magazine

1694
01:46:42.680 --> 01:46:45.319
announced Final Fantasy seven in Japan.
I lost my ship. You went and

1695
01:46:45.359 --> 01:46:48.680
posted on the PlayStation what's going on? Yeah? Good times. That's pretty

1696
01:46:48.680 --> 01:46:51.199
good. Good times in the in
the mid nineties. Way more innocuous than

1697
01:46:51.239 --> 01:46:56.439
most of the stuff that is out
there anyway. Yes, So they started

1698
01:46:56.479 --> 01:46:58.479
at IP you know, I want
to say, it was like ninety three

1699
01:46:58.560 --> 01:47:00.439
ish or somewhere around there, and
I signed up for it. Then when

1700
01:47:00.479 --> 01:47:03.680
it was just a dial up service
and then kind of ping ponged onto and

1701
01:47:03.760 --> 01:47:06.319
off of it depending on where I
was living and all that other stuff.

1702
01:47:08.720 --> 01:47:10.960
Because they didn't have a local access
number. I think I was running up

1703
01:47:10.960 --> 01:47:15.279
three hundred dollars a month the phone
charges to call their access number. So

1704
01:47:15.359 --> 01:47:17.680
I had to move to something else, and then I got a cable modem,

1705
01:47:17.680 --> 01:47:19.560
and then I went back to them
for DSL for a while, but

1706
01:47:19.640 --> 01:47:23.399
the speed wasn't there, so like
if they had fiber in my neighborhood.

1707
01:47:23.399 --> 01:47:26.640
I was watching them a fucking heartbeat. They they've they like throw a picnic

1708
01:47:26.760 --> 01:47:30.119
for their customers every year. So
it's crazy like their customers. So their

1709
01:47:30.159 --> 01:47:34.119
customer service was always so good,
so real to get like perfect scores from

1710
01:47:34.159 --> 01:47:40.239
like customer service kind of review boards
expensive. It is also half the price

1711
01:47:40.319 --> 01:47:44.760
of my comment what it's eight times
the speed of my Comcast for half the

1712
01:47:44.760 --> 01:47:47.640
price right now, check it out. Check Yeah. Every few months I

1713
01:47:47.720 --> 01:47:51.680
go and look and see if they
are in my part of Pedaluma yet uh,

1714
01:47:51.800 --> 01:47:56.840
and they're not. They never so
it's always and now like the one

1715
01:47:56.880 --> 01:47:59.560
thing they did change is like now
they're like, hey, if you sign

1716
01:47:59.600 --> 01:48:00.960
it for a cell service, that's
a vote that we need to upgrade in

1717
01:48:01.000 --> 01:48:04.840
your community. And I'm like,
no, like I'm not gonna like especially

1718
01:48:04.880 --> 01:48:09.920
in THERB speed especially in the burbs
or infrastructure rollout is like super slow and

1719
01:48:10.560 --> 01:48:13.479
very spotty, like who knows how. I'm sure that there's something real about

1720
01:48:13.520 --> 01:48:16.079
them saying that, but also like
I'm not gonna Yeah, I'm not gonna

1721
01:48:16.199 --> 01:48:20.199
go to a slower tier of service. Yeah. There. Their focus seems

1722
01:48:20.199 --> 01:48:23.439
to be on in San Francisco right
now, but I could not be more

1723
01:48:23.439 --> 01:48:28.399
excited because they're from up near where
I'm at. Yeah, but I've got

1724
01:48:28.479 --> 01:48:32.119
a Paxio at home which is fiber
but it actually supplies the entire building,

1725
01:48:32.159 --> 01:48:35.720
which is like ninety units. Still
it's like still, yeah, it's still

1726
01:48:35.760 --> 01:48:39.600
good, fantastic. Yeah, what
are you pulling from steam? Uh?

1727
01:48:39.880 --> 01:48:44.960
Three to four thing of bits for
a second something like that. It's burly,

1728
01:48:45.319 --> 01:48:47.439
Okay, I don't know if those
numbers are correct, Comcast. I'll

1729
01:48:47.479 --> 01:48:51.920
top out about it. It's faster
than my uh you know hard drive will

1730
01:48:53.000 --> 01:48:58.560
write uh subtle actually like frequent right, yeah, I get about I get

1731
01:48:58.640 --> 01:49:00.760
like top out like twelve fifteen mega. That's I think that's where I am

1732
01:49:00.880 --> 01:49:04.000
right now too. I've got about
one. Yeah, I think I need

1733
01:49:04.079 --> 01:49:06.880
to look at the Comcast plans because
I think I could be getting slightly fat,

1734
01:49:08.039 --> 01:49:11.279
like like significantly faster internet for only
like another ten time. They have

1735
01:49:11.359 --> 01:49:15.000
like business teamers and stuff. If
you're well, you're up there also minds

1736
01:49:15.039 --> 01:49:17.760
free it's including with that's she's yeah, I can't. I can't fight a

1737
01:49:17.800 --> 01:49:21.039
man. Free Internet's the best internet. Thinking about deleting my Steam library and

1738
01:49:21.119 --> 01:49:28.359
retelling it just just to watch it
go very excited, fucking a. I

1739
01:49:28.439 --> 01:49:31.119
support that dumb move. I support
you in that terrible I know. I'll

1740
01:49:31.199 --> 01:49:35.199
i'll maybe I'll just get live stream. I'll download Doom or something again,

1741
01:49:35.319 --> 01:49:39.720
just one of those big ones.
But yeah, and stream it absolutely yeah.

1742
01:49:39.920 --> 01:49:42.319
But also I can't wait to keep
downloading it like a mega second on

1743
01:49:42.399 --> 01:49:45.039
PSN over that thing, because that's
probably what's going to happen, right,

1744
01:49:45.079 --> 01:49:47.439
because PSN is not great. I
can get ten makes, I can get

1745
01:49:47.439 --> 01:49:51.800
twenty makes. Oh man. Yeah, it's a slow rollout. Like I

1746
01:49:51.880 --> 01:49:57.159
said, they're different municipal challenges around
each neighborhood that they are working through.

1747
01:49:57.239 --> 01:50:02.239
But fast internet it's exciting. Yeah, man, that would that would knock

1748
01:50:02.279 --> 01:50:05.399
it. That would I don't know
I could do that. I might knock

1749
01:50:05.439 --> 01:50:12.520
a chunk off with what I'm paying. Yeah, there's more a plane,

1750
01:50:13.039 --> 01:50:17.279
that's right, every true. Yeah, I'm gonna put Internet in that plane.

1751
01:50:17.560 --> 01:50:23.960
When I walked in, there was
a diagram of like how flight worked,

1752
01:50:24.000 --> 01:50:26.880
and it has drawing of a plane
and you know, uh, the

1753
01:50:27.039 --> 01:50:30.439
up arrows said lift and the down
arrow said gravity, and the forward arrow

1754
01:50:30.520 --> 01:50:34.199
said money. Nice nice nice.
Yeah, yep, that's just math.

1755
01:50:35.520 --> 01:50:40.880
Uh okay. Yeah, So we
got a PlayStation four slim price increased on

1756
01:50:40.920 --> 01:50:45.560
PlayStation plus great and then as of
like twenty minutes ago, they have confirmed

1757
01:50:45.640 --> 01:50:50.000
that PlayStation Now is coming to PC. Let me pull that story up.

1758
01:50:50.000 --> 01:50:54.520
So that apparently leaked on the European
PlayStation blog this morning like out of some

1759
01:50:54.640 --> 01:50:58.039
metadata on a photo or something like
that, but it's down the official block.

1760
01:50:58.079 --> 01:51:00.880
So yes, they have now they
have now gone and messages it officially.

1761
01:51:00.319 --> 01:51:04.920
We were excited to announce the PlayStation
PlayStation Now is making the jump to

1762
01:51:05.000 --> 01:51:10.079
Windows PC. The appalaunches overseas and
parts of Europe soon, and we'll come

1763
01:51:10.119 --> 01:51:15.000
to North America shortly thereafter soon and
shortly cool, all right, they're also

1764
01:51:16.039 --> 01:51:20.640
making a dongle, a controller dongle, a wireless dongle, which I don't

1765
01:51:20.720 --> 01:51:26.159
see the word bluetooth. Maybe it
is just a Bluetooth that's that's That's what

1766
01:51:26.199 --> 01:51:30.680
I'm saying. I assume. I
assume this is just a PlayStation branded Bluetooth

1767
01:51:30.760 --> 01:51:33.279
dongle it looks like. But at
the same time, they kind of need

1768
01:51:33.399 --> 01:51:38.119
that because like I did the legwork
of getting a Bluetooth dongle to try to

1769
01:51:38.199 --> 01:51:41.119
do that stuff officially. You know, there's like DS four twole that lets

1770
01:51:41.119 --> 01:51:44.279
you use that thing. Uh,
and there's a bunch of weird compatibility issues.

1771
01:51:44.319 --> 01:51:46.399
You know, It's like half of
the cheap Bluetooth adapters on Amazon like

1772
01:51:46.479 --> 01:51:49.800
don't work with that thing, and
some of them sometimes work. Like if

1773
01:51:49.840 --> 01:51:54.119
this thing is reliable and makes that
control or just go on a PC,

1774
01:51:54.319 --> 01:51:57.439
then then this I see a need
for this adapter. I assume this doesn't

1775
01:51:57.520 --> 01:52:00.079
change anything about like PS four controller
had a building No no, no no,

1776
01:52:00.199 --> 01:52:03.119
I think you might probably still done
that because it's not it's gonna They're

1777
01:52:03.119 --> 01:52:08.520
not gonna use Microsoft's x in puts
to fake it. I'm just talking about

1778
01:52:08.520 --> 01:52:13.520
between the controller and the adapter even
that process that that reliability was spotty.

1779
01:52:13.760 --> 01:52:15.640
One line in the press release actually
says, of course owning the USB A

1780
01:52:15.680 --> 01:52:19.039
wireless adapter isn't required, as you
can connect to dual shock for using a

1781
01:52:19.119 --> 01:52:21.960
US yea, you can still plug
in yeah sure, like, but they

1782
01:52:23.039 --> 01:52:27.039
don't make a mention of like using
third party software like I don't know,

1783
01:52:27.119 --> 01:52:29.840
maybe maybe they will release some kind
of driver for it. Oh man,

1784
01:52:30.039 --> 01:52:31.720
Well, I mean the thing is
it already has like it it's supports direct

1785
01:52:31.800 --> 01:52:35.920
input, just not x X,
and most games now these days are leading

1786
01:52:36.520 --> 01:52:40.680
put yeah need dead X. Yeah. That seems that seems like a bridge

1787
01:52:40.720 --> 01:52:44.199
too far for them to get into
supporting that thinks twenty five bucks for the

1788
01:52:44.199 --> 01:52:49.039
adapter. Yeah, will enable every
feature of the control you know and love

1789
01:52:49.119 --> 01:52:53.520
buttons, analog sticks, touchpad,
lightbar, motion sensors, vibration, m

1790
01:52:53.640 --> 01:52:58.680
stereo, headset jack. So we're
talking play as long as the gaming application

1791
01:52:58.720 --> 01:53:00.960
supports these features, Okay, and
chart at four in your PC. Yeah,

1792
01:53:01.920 --> 01:53:04.319
so you can do that already with
the remote play app which they put

1793
01:53:04.359 --> 01:53:06.840
out back in April, wasn't it
right? But you have to have a

1794
01:53:06.880 --> 01:53:10.079
PlayStation to do it? Yeah?
Yeah, yeah, Oh you can't.

1795
01:53:10.119 --> 01:53:12.479
You can't. There are no PS
four games on PlayStation now. Yeah,

1796
01:53:12.800 --> 01:53:15.720
this is this would be just from
chart three three to play old on chart

1797
01:53:15.760 --> 01:53:18.840
maybe. I don't know if that's
on, but now is now is just

1798
01:53:19.119 --> 01:53:21.600
PS three games, you know,
or do they ps PS two games are

1799
01:53:21.600 --> 01:53:26.479
coming out? Yeah, that's yeah. So it's like collection of the PS

1800
01:53:26.560 --> 01:53:30.880
three library. It's a weird it's
a weird collection of them. And this

1801
01:53:30.960 --> 01:53:32.000
is the guy Ki stuff. So
this is stuff that runs off in the

1802
01:53:32.039 --> 01:53:38.720
clouds somewhere on some other end of
the internet. And you can play a

1803
01:53:38.800 --> 01:53:41.960
lot of bad PS three games and
some that are decent, that are better.

1804
01:53:42.079 --> 01:53:44.319
Yeah, there are. That's it's
a wide swath. But when I

1805
01:53:44.600 --> 01:53:46.960
messed around with PlayStation Now, was
just like, oh, all these weird

1806
01:53:47.359 --> 01:53:56.000
download only PSN games that were Yeah
unfortunately no knack damn. Yeah. Does

1807
01:53:56.039 --> 01:53:58.520
they end like a bundle service?
Yet it's like a service like, hey,

1808
01:53:58.640 --> 01:54:00.279
twenty dollars a month play whatever the
that's what it is. It is,

1809
01:54:00.640 --> 01:54:04.239
Okay, it always was. It
always was that because I remember,

1810
01:54:04.359 --> 01:54:08.239
yeah, us paying individually prior to
launch it, right, but I think

1811
01:54:08.279 --> 01:54:12.720
they have they have moved into annual
fees and that sort of stuff. Gotcha.

1812
01:54:12.880 --> 01:54:15.840
Yeah, did you guys use the
remote play app much on Windows?

1813
01:54:15.960 --> 01:54:17.800
Never? I don't know. I've
never installed it really. I installed it

1814
01:54:17.880 --> 01:54:21.680
on my last I'm using it here
to like play into your PS four at

1815
01:54:21.720 --> 01:54:27.399
home. Yeah that was specifically once. Okay, when battle Born was out,

1816
01:54:27.680 --> 01:54:30.680
forget why, but I was playing
the intro to battle Bornial battle Board.

1817
01:54:30.960 --> 01:54:34.680
Wouldn't have to play it from your
four like a tab out of this

1818
01:54:34.720 --> 01:54:41.319
window and just let the intro movie. Plus it worked, It's just you

1819
01:54:41.399 --> 01:54:44.039
know, there was just enough latency
to it to where you wouldn't want to

1820
01:54:44.079 --> 01:54:45.920
play a game that way. So
I've I've started using it a lot at

1821
01:54:45.960 --> 01:54:48.760
home. Uh. It turns out
it's a good way to keep up with

1822
01:54:48.800 --> 01:54:54.520
adventure channels. Well you're queuing queuing
for DODA matches because you extra hate yourself.

1823
01:54:54.680 --> 01:54:58.239
We'll see. I just my my
situation is that I have my PC

1824
01:54:58.359 --> 01:55:02.720
monitors right here, and then the
TV Adventure Capitalists can just be running constantly.

1825
01:55:03.279 --> 01:55:05.760
Oh you have to do it swivel. Yeah, yeah, my P

1826
01:55:05.920 --> 01:55:08.920
four is in another room. But
it's kind of awesome for that, like

1827
01:55:09.199 --> 01:55:11.439
or or you know, looking for
crystals and grow up or whatever. I

1828
01:55:11.560 --> 01:55:14.079
was doing, But so that thing
has gotten incredibly unreliable for me. I

1829
01:55:14.159 --> 01:55:16.800
was gonna ask if anybody and have
this problem, but mine at home like

1830
01:55:16.960 --> 01:55:20.720
will like work for five seconds and
then like freeze for three just on off,

1831
01:55:20.840 --> 01:55:24.000
on off constantly, and I cannot
figure it out and it makes it

1832
01:55:24.079 --> 01:55:27.920
completely useless and it's a bummer.
I will stay. PlayStation View has improved

1833
01:55:29.079 --> 01:55:35.039
drastically, like Seeking fast Forward actually
works. There's still a lot of weird

1834
01:55:35.199 --> 01:55:40.079
errors and it can be clunky,
but you know, what, do you

1835
01:55:40.479 --> 01:55:43.279
what you pay for it? I
think it's worth it. Also, I

1836
01:55:43.600 --> 01:55:46.359
probably should mention I fucking broke on
Adventure Capitalist in the worst way last night,

1837
01:55:46.439 --> 01:55:49.439
Like holy shit, really I got
to the moon, uh huh,

1838
01:55:49.600 --> 01:55:51.760
and I was like, oh my
god, I have to do all this

1839
01:55:51.920 --> 01:55:55.359
over again. Oh it took like
a week to get to the moon,

1840
01:55:57.199 --> 01:56:00.319
and then Mars is that again?
And then suddenly my some clock magically jumped

1841
01:56:00.479 --> 01:56:05.039
to twenty ninety nine five or six
times in a row. You just got

1842
01:56:05.039 --> 01:56:10.880
all those trophies and it was the
most fun I've ever had. Ye when

1843
01:56:10.880 --> 01:56:15.359
you see the numbers go up,
and it's illicit when you're getting one over

1844
01:56:15.760 --> 01:56:17.439
on the numbers, yeah, you're
like, I'm the master of the numbers.

1845
01:56:17.479 --> 01:56:20.279
The numbers are not masters of me. Yep. Yeah, that's it's

1846
01:56:20.279 --> 01:56:23.119
really good. I haven't quite gotten
all. There's a couple of the last

1847
01:56:23.159 --> 01:56:28.399
couple of trophies still take like like
a shocking number of centuries centuries at a

1848
01:56:28.439 --> 01:56:31.800
certain point, like how could you
ever get those trophies? Naturally it's exponential,

1849
01:56:32.199 --> 01:56:35.119
Like I on my phone where I
have not cheated, I have gotten

1850
01:56:35.159 --> 01:56:39.000
Oh really, you've got all that
stuff. It's just it's a matter finally

1851
01:56:39.039 --> 01:56:40.880
get there. Months and months,
that's what I'm saying, Like, how

1852
01:56:40.920 --> 01:56:45.039
long would it take if you didn't
cheat at that thing? Because more time

1853
01:56:45.079 --> 01:56:48.880
than you want to spend. Yeah, clickers are bad, they really are.

1854
01:56:49.119 --> 01:56:55.319
Yeah. I think that's it for
the giant flood of Sony news this

1855
01:56:55.399 --> 01:56:58.359
week. See if anything else leeks
before that event comes up, Yeah,

1856
01:56:59.439 --> 01:57:01.920
on September seventh. Yeah, if
you were planning some big like and it's

1857
01:57:01.960 --> 01:57:05.039
out now thing and to just have
it out there two weeks early, like

1858
01:57:06.760 --> 01:57:10.720
sure, somebody is not especially pleased. I mean, you know, at

1859
01:57:10.760 --> 01:57:15.359
least like no more specifics about neo
availability of hit. Yeah, they still

1860
01:57:15.439 --> 01:57:18.279
do have that stuff left to that's
a big thing for this adventure. It's

1861
01:57:18.319 --> 01:57:23.840
been a leaky ship this year,
like in general, total totally and it's

1862
01:57:23.920 --> 01:57:29.840
everyone. Yeah, like the it
should be you know, this sort of

1863
01:57:29.880 --> 01:57:31.920
stuff doesn't need to be. Yeah, the extreme secrecy around some of this

1864
01:57:31.960 --> 01:57:34.960
stuff gets a little crazy. Like
I mean, I get like the timing

1865
01:57:35.000 --> 01:57:38.279
of like, hey, we want
to sell existing PS four so we don't

1866
01:57:38.279 --> 01:57:42.079
want to announce the next one yet, Like that's maybe a case to not

1867
01:57:42.399 --> 01:57:47.479
talk about stuff, but I guess, but it seems to me that having

1868
01:57:47.520 --> 01:57:55.800
a story break early and not being
ready for it and then scrambling to control

1869
01:57:56.000 --> 01:58:06.079
messaging in a really uh not clean
way is more detrimental than it is advantageous

1870
01:58:06.199 --> 01:58:10.840
for you to announce. I think
so too, But I also think that

1871
01:58:11.079 --> 01:58:15.199
Sony usually takes that one step further
and they don't scramble to confirm the announcement

1872
01:58:15.439 --> 01:58:16.680
in this case, just did,
but instead they just say nothing, and

1873
01:58:16.760 --> 01:58:19.800
you're like, all right, well, yeah, fine. To be fair,

1874
01:58:19.880 --> 01:58:21.920
in this case, it was their
own leak, like their own blog

1875
01:58:23.039 --> 01:58:27.000
right the places now stuff, But
yeah, you're right that you tend to

1876
01:58:27.119 --> 01:58:29.840
just let the stuff hang in the
air for weeks or months at a time

1877
01:58:29.880 --> 01:58:32.560
without addressing I just think is a
bad way to go. Yeah, at

1878
01:58:32.600 --> 01:58:35.359
same time, like you're this close
to your big gallot than in New York

1879
01:58:35.399 --> 01:58:39.640
City, Like you're probably just gonna
wait and act like nothing happened. You

1880
01:58:39.680 --> 01:58:41.479
know. All it takes is like, hey, we'll have more to say

1881
01:58:41.520 --> 01:58:45.359
on September seven. Yeah, Like
just that acknowledgement, plus like here's when

1882
01:58:45.359 --> 01:58:47.119
you can expect to hear more about
it. I think would would be a

1883
01:58:47.239 --> 01:58:50.239
fantastic step in the right direct.
It at least makes people stop asking which

1884
01:58:50.359 --> 01:58:54.800
is really what you want, or
treating it like it's some big like hey,

1885
01:58:54.880 --> 01:58:57.399
we're gonna tell this to every part
of the internet because we're gonna talk

1886
01:58:57.399 --> 01:59:00.600
about it our message wards for weeks
and weeks and weeks because it's a like

1887
01:59:01.399 --> 01:59:04.239
or people going like there's no way
that's real. Yeah, like to be

1888
01:59:04.279 --> 01:59:06.199
fair, I mean yeah, yeah, it was like there was a good

1889
01:59:06.199 --> 01:59:10.359
thirty six hours of people looking at
this thing. Oh that thing is a

1890
01:59:10.399 --> 01:59:12.760
little that was a little weird.
Yeah, like it's three D printed.

1891
01:59:13.079 --> 01:59:16.279
Right, all right, let's move
on to non Sony news here. Hey

1892
01:59:16.359 --> 01:59:20.279
remember when they said they were going
to make more metal gear games? Oh

1893
01:59:20.439 --> 01:59:24.840
right, Oh yeah, Pachinko and
stuff. Right, yeah, yeah,

1894
01:59:25.159 --> 01:59:28.079
they're making a new Metal Gear game, like a game, look like a

1895
01:59:28.159 --> 01:59:33.800
game game game, Metal game Gear
another Metal Gear survive m yes, yes,

1896
01:59:33.920 --> 01:59:39.239
yes, as it's as it's known. It's like a Resident Evil rip

1897
01:59:39.319 --> 01:59:42.520
off, isn't it like it looks
it's like it's like the Red Dead Zombie

1898
01:59:42.560 --> 01:59:45.840
expansion, but with the with it
appears it appears to be. It appears

1899
01:59:45.840 --> 01:59:47.039
to be a I don't know if
they come out and say it's a four

1900
01:59:47.079 --> 01:59:50.960
player game, but it appears to
be a four player survival action things co

1901
01:59:51.119 --> 01:59:56.199
op game. Yes, uh for
PC, Xbox one and TS four.

1902
01:59:56.319 --> 01:59:59.880
The one thing Metal Gear did not
need was zombies. It kind of even

1903
02:00:00.039 --> 02:00:03.199
had them in five. Yeah.
So my first reaction to this was man,

1904
02:00:03.319 --> 02:00:06.159
Metal Gears All at five played amazingly. I would love to play another

1905
02:00:06.239 --> 02:00:09.439
game like that. And then I
was like, well, the wave based

1906
02:00:09.439 --> 02:00:12.640
survival does not capitalize on what made
that game great, like the AI,

1907
02:00:12.920 --> 02:00:15.880
the clockwork AI, and the nature
of this the size and scope of that

1908
02:00:15.960 --> 02:00:16.840
game, that's the stuff. So
when you fill that with like, oh,

1909
02:00:16.840 --> 02:00:19.680
well now we've got zombie hordes to
make up for having to have ASI,

1910
02:00:19.960 --> 02:00:23.479
that does a thing on top of
that, like the footage they put

1911
02:00:23.520 --> 02:00:27.359
out of this, like the shambling
zombies and that thing just reeked of the

1912
02:00:27.479 --> 02:00:30.479
skulls from MGS five, And if
they play anything like that, like,

1913
02:00:30.720 --> 02:00:33.319
fucking no, that was the worst
part of that Fighting the skulls is the

1914
02:00:33.359 --> 02:00:36.000
worst part of that game. So
I hope it's better than that. Oh

1915
02:00:36.079 --> 02:00:40.079
I'm sorry. They do come out
and say explicitly four player. Yeah,

1916
02:00:40.439 --> 02:00:42.760
but the trailer, you know,
shows kind of teams of four. But

1917
02:00:43.960 --> 02:00:47.159
I didn't want. I don't want
to play competitive multiplayer metal Gear, even

1918
02:00:47.239 --> 02:00:50.439
even for its front as I liked
the gameplay in MGS five, Like that's

1919
02:00:51.000 --> 02:00:57.000
you know, spins on that that
that get away from what MGS five was

1920
02:00:57.159 --> 02:01:00.439
or not what I'm looking for.
Competitive multiplayer is one of the those things

1921
02:01:00.560 --> 02:01:04.680
like the A's Survival game. No, it's just not it's just not what

1922
02:01:04.760 --> 02:01:09.640
I'm after. I'll tell you.
And this may be a controversial opinion,

1923
02:01:09.720 --> 02:01:15.560
but like if if I had known, if if I had watched the same

1924
02:01:15.720 --> 02:01:20.640
trailer and Kojima was still at Konami, I would at least have some hope

1925
02:01:21.920 --> 02:01:29.439
that this game would be intriguing to
me personally, because I like Kojima,

1926
02:01:29.520 --> 02:01:35.159
I think more than I like Metal
Gear. Sure, but with him not

1927
02:01:35.359 --> 02:01:39.720
there, it's hard to have faith
in. Like when you look at the

1928
02:01:40.079 --> 02:01:45.960
like constant fire that has been Konami
on their way out of the video game

1929
02:01:45.039 --> 02:01:49.039
business or on their way I guess
they're not out right, I don't even

1930
02:01:49.039 --> 02:01:55.960
know who's making this. Is it
the Metal Your Online team production, the

1931
02:01:56.000 --> 02:01:59.279
Fox Engine, I presume, Yeah, I think they've They've said as much,

1932
02:01:59.319 --> 02:02:04.600
but yeah, it's uh m hmm, it's I like that engine.

1933
02:02:04.640 --> 02:02:09.600
I like the gameplay like five.
I mean it was you know, it

1934
02:02:09.680 --> 02:02:12.680
was a totally fine third person shooter. Yeah, yeah, I mean play

1935
02:02:12.760 --> 02:02:14.479
fine, we'll see what it is. But at the same time, like

1936
02:02:14.600 --> 02:02:16.840
I don't like zombie games on top
of all that. So it's even this

1937
02:02:17.000 --> 02:02:21.159
is the exact opposite of you know, of the things I love about Metal

1938
02:02:21.159 --> 02:02:24.520
Gear. Yeah, this is and
even if they try against all of that

1939
02:02:24.560 --> 02:02:29.079
stuff to do that and like be
true to the Metal Gear franchise or whatever,

1940
02:02:30.239 --> 02:02:36.319
it wouldn't just my knowledge of the
man Cogima and his you know,

1941
02:02:36.479 --> 02:02:40.359
the fact that he's not there anymore, I wouldn't be able to. I

1942
02:02:40.399 --> 02:02:43.119
don't know, I just I could
not see. I think if they if

1943
02:02:43.119 --> 02:02:45.800
they said, hey we're gonna make
metal Gear Solid six, or hey we're

1944
02:02:45.840 --> 02:02:48.000
making metal Gear three, you know, just like or whatever they ended up

1945
02:02:48.039 --> 02:02:54.399
doing. Uh. I like Cojima's
work quite a bit, But at the

1946
02:02:54.439 --> 02:02:58.760
same time, I think that someone
could emulate large parts of that in a

1947
02:02:58.840 --> 02:03:01.560
way that would work for at least
one more proper metal Gear game. I

1948
02:03:01.600 --> 02:03:06.000
think you're right. I don't think
I would personally care as much. Yeah,

1949
02:03:06.119 --> 02:03:10.359
I think, well, I would
be very curious, how absolutely like

1950
02:03:10.880 --> 02:03:13.520
you're gonna give it a go,
like okay, like let's let's see if

1951
02:03:13.560 --> 02:03:16.439
you can do this, because I
bet they could nail most of it.

1952
02:03:16.720 --> 02:03:23.000
Yeah, I just could not jump
whole hog into it like I want to

1953
02:03:23.119 --> 02:03:27.800
do to a new Coachima for better
or worse. He has been very good

1954
02:03:27.960 --> 02:03:32.079
at putting himself in front of that
franchise and like, you know, you

1955
02:03:32.239 --> 02:03:34.720
know that guy made. I'm sure
there are people out there that don't and

1956
02:03:34.800 --> 02:03:38.960
there's like whatever more metal Gearre's problem. There's got to be some wider,

1957
02:03:39.079 --> 02:03:43.000
more mainstream audience that doesn't give a
shit what you're what's you're suggesting is they

1958
02:03:43.000 --> 02:03:46.279
would be making the metal Gear Solid
two of Metal Gear games. Yeah,

1959
02:03:46.439 --> 02:03:54.640
a Hideo Kojima simulation. Okay,
mmm, okay, all right, yeah,

1960
02:03:55.479 --> 02:03:58.920
if you can exactly yes, see, if you can procedurally generate the

1961
02:03:59.079 --> 02:04:03.800
Cochima game. Yeah, you know
what I'm excited for. Jure, he's

1962
02:04:03.880 --> 02:04:09.319
not done. We're gonna Cogima games. I don't know. I mean,

1963
02:04:09.359 --> 02:04:11.800
there may be no end to this
game. He would maybe never actually be

1964
02:04:11.840 --> 02:04:14.039
able to complete it, because it
might just be a bunch of wave based

1965
02:04:14.079 --> 02:04:18.319
survival matches. Ethnausa, did you
ever play Rising? Nope? Rising is

1966
02:04:18.319 --> 02:04:20.399
a short game. It's really good. Also, not a Cogima game.

1967
02:04:20.520 --> 02:04:24.359
Yeah, nope, that was Platinum. Yeah, really good though. Yeah,

1968
02:04:24.479 --> 02:04:26.760
I mean, this thing at least
has a metal gear Ass premise.

1969
02:04:27.479 --> 02:04:30.840
Metal gear Ass premise in that it
is set directly after Ground Zeros, when

1970
02:04:31.359 --> 02:04:34.680
everyone the bass blew up at the
end of Ground Zeros and then the zombies

1971
02:04:34.680 --> 02:04:38.680
came out, according according to this
game, According to this game, right

1972
02:04:38.720 --> 02:04:41.760
after Solid Snake and Miller and all
those people flew away in a helicopter,

1973
02:04:41.880 --> 02:04:45.720
a wormhole opened over top of the
exploding base and sucked everyone else into this

1974
02:04:45.840 --> 02:04:51.079
wormhole and delivered them to this alternate
dimension. Nameless, generic Soldiers lost me

1975
02:04:51.279 --> 02:04:55.720
the most important part. Yeah.
MS five has wormholes in it. It

1976
02:04:55.840 --> 02:05:00.319
totally does that. The top end
of the research has wormholes. It's true

1977
02:05:00.720 --> 02:05:03.880
zombie. Yeah, zombie. That
research had to come from somewhere. Yeah,

1978
02:05:04.119 --> 02:05:06.159
not not into it. Yeah,
I don't know. Like the trailer

1979
02:05:06.239 --> 02:05:09.439
kind of makes it seem like you're
just gonna be using like a character creator.

1980
02:05:09.439 --> 02:05:14.319
I don't think there is any protagonist
or story years as such. I

1981
02:05:14.800 --> 02:05:15.960
don't know, man, I don't
know. It just makes me more mad.

1982
02:05:16.560 --> 02:05:19.079
It's coming out extra more I think
about it. That's what I got

1983
02:05:19.159 --> 02:05:23.119
for No thanks, no thanks.
Yeah, I'll play it. I'll give

1984
02:05:23.119 --> 02:05:27.279
it a shot. The premise of
it is it's weird, the opposite of

1985
02:05:27.319 --> 02:05:29.079
what I want out of another one
of those. At the same time,

1986
02:05:29.159 --> 02:05:31.720
it's more metal, your solid video
game than I ever expected them to deliver.

1987
02:05:31.800 --> 02:05:35.479
Again, so it's gotten that going
for it. I guess. I

1988
02:05:35.560 --> 02:05:40.239
don't know. Fine, Yeah,
why not. You'll play it and you'll

1989
02:05:40.279 --> 02:05:47.399
like it. Maybe On games Colm
was pretty much a non starter beyond the

1990
02:05:47.560 --> 02:05:53.720
little trickle of kind of nothing that
we got out of last week show.

1991
02:05:54.560 --> 02:05:58.000
Star Citizen panel. Yeah, that
Star Citizen stuff. They went down to

1992
02:05:58.079 --> 02:06:00.920
a planet and got it out.
That footage just like for the first time

1993
02:06:00.000 --> 02:06:03.680
and forever. Some Star Citizen stuff
was received very positively on the Internet.

1994
02:06:04.279 --> 02:06:08.560
People people kind of flipped out over
that footage. Actually, I watched a

1995
02:06:08.640 --> 02:06:11.680
little bit of that, and they
had a very direct no Man's sky dig

1996
02:06:12.159 --> 02:06:15.840
like, look, look how far
we can see without you know, generating

1997
02:06:15.880 --> 02:06:18.880
the geometry. It's weird. There's
a little bit of blood in the water

1998
02:06:19.039 --> 02:06:23.319
around that game. With all these
all these other all these other space games

1999
02:06:23.359 --> 02:06:26.760
that are in the hopper, Star
Citizen has no fucking leg to stand.

2000
02:06:26.960 --> 02:06:30.520
I agree with the way. I
fully agree with a fully agree idea that

2001
02:06:30.520 --> 02:06:32.520
they would even fucking attempt to do
that, like, hey, No Man

2002
02:06:32.600 --> 02:06:35.039
sky shipped, Like call what you
want to. They made it out the

2003
02:06:35.079 --> 02:06:39.039
fucking door if they delivered a product. They delivered a product and didn't charge

2004
02:06:39.079 --> 02:06:42.119
people a fucking thousand dollars for a
ship along the way or whatever it was,

2005
02:06:42.279 --> 02:06:44.800
Like, how far are they know
they're up to? Like a couple

2006
02:06:45.039 --> 02:06:51.920
millions? I don't know why?
Oh wait, did I so? I

2007
02:06:51.960 --> 02:06:54.880
hope I don't have that wrong.
I thought I thought I saw there was

2008
02:06:54.880 --> 02:06:58.399
a big headline when they had passed
Internet you know better. Maybe it was

2009
02:06:58.479 --> 02:07:03.840
No, no, does not does
not know better. I could try to

2010
02:07:03.840 --> 02:07:10.800
find Yeah, yeah, they've passed
under millions US. I hope that thing

2011
02:07:10.920 --> 02:07:14.760
comes together and is amazing. Yeah, I mean if that's but yeah,

2012
02:07:14.880 --> 02:07:16.960
right for that amount of money,
like, hopefully they solve the impossible problems

2013
02:07:17.000 --> 02:07:20.840
they're trying to solve. But give
me the best damp Space game ever,

2014
02:07:21.039 --> 02:07:25.800
right, the last space game you'll
ever need, Let's hope. Uh.

2015
02:07:26.279 --> 02:07:29.520
They did put out an hour final
Fantasy fifteen footage, which I trust that

2016
02:07:29.560 --> 02:07:32.680
you viewed, yes repeatedly. Yes, you've just had it on loop ever

2017
02:07:32.760 --> 02:07:36.760
since. Well, no, but
I have scrutinized hit game looks really good.

2018
02:07:38.199 --> 02:07:42.159
It opens on a very weird note. I don't know if you've watched

2019
02:07:42.199 --> 02:07:45.159
it. No is it at the
beginning of the game. So the footage

2020
02:07:45.159 --> 02:07:47.760
that they put out starts at the
very very beginning of the game. And

2021
02:07:47.880 --> 02:07:53.359
the game opens and there's this old
guy that kind of looks like Noctus,

2022
02:07:53.439 --> 02:07:56.720
but he's dressed like the king,
and he's surrounded by fire, and he's

2023
02:07:56.760 --> 02:08:00.279
standing in front of a throne where
there's a guy, a big animal creature

2024
02:08:00.319 --> 02:08:01.840
whatever, sitting on the throne.
With fire and you. And I'm thinking

2025
02:08:01.960 --> 02:08:05.159
like, oh, this must be
King Regis when he was younger, because

2026
02:08:05.159 --> 02:08:09.079
they talk a lot about how the
king and his friends also battled when they

2027
02:08:09.079 --> 02:08:11.399
were younger. So I'm like,
oh, we're opening on King Regis,

2028
02:08:11.439 --> 02:08:13.279
and maybe they'll pull a Kingdom Hearts
too, and we'll spend the eight first

2029
02:08:13.359 --> 02:08:16.960
eight fucking hours playing in someone else. And then and then the three guys

2030
02:08:18.039 --> 02:08:20.479
run up and they call him knocked
us and it's like, oh, wait

2031
02:08:20.520 --> 02:08:22.359
a minute, and they all look
older, and they all have like different

2032
02:08:22.399 --> 02:08:26.079
hair and different clothes, and the
first maybe two or three minutes are just

2033
02:08:26.239 --> 02:08:30.319
them in this scenario with this fiery
creature on the throne, and then it

2034
02:08:30.439 --> 02:08:33.279
goes black and then it goes back
to them in the car younger. So

2035
02:08:33.800 --> 02:08:37.680
I think there's a time skip in
this game. Like that points to a

2036
02:08:37.760 --> 02:08:39.880
time skip. And the interesting thing
is that there was a four ten league

2037
02:08:41.000 --> 02:08:46.239
last year listing off alleged plot points
for Final Fantasy fifteen, and the first

2038
02:08:46.279 --> 02:08:50.159
thing they mentioned is game opens on
a time skip. Everyone is older,

2039
02:08:50.319 --> 02:08:52.439
and so it's like, oh,
Like everyone was like no, they'd never

2040
02:08:52.600 --> 02:08:56.920
do that, and like they're totally
doing Hey, here they are and and

2041
02:08:56.079 --> 02:09:00.199
like that aside, like there's some
of the other plot points I read and

2042
02:09:00.199 --> 02:09:03.119
I'm like, oh, okay,
because others don't bother me. But I

2043
02:09:03.159 --> 02:09:07.199
don't know, like I don't know
the how how accurate that leak is,

2044
02:09:07.279 --> 02:09:09.000
but it is kind of very suspicious. Mean, at least it doesn't open

2045
02:09:09.079 --> 02:09:15.119
with like some kind of fake underwater
soccer thing. I don't know if it

2046
02:09:15.159 --> 02:09:20.720
doesn't sound so bad. Now looked
looks good, like they show uh combat

2047
02:09:20.800 --> 02:09:24.960
still looks a little busy, but
they show off like the magic system,

2048
02:09:24.039 --> 02:09:28.960
which is actually kind of like also
from Final Fantasy ten. It's like the

2049
02:09:28.560 --> 02:09:33.319
Rikho's mix overdrive with the crafting where
you can like craft items and magic kind

2050
02:09:33.319 --> 02:09:37.279
of works and works like the draw
system from Final Fantasy eight. We gotta

2051
02:09:37.319 --> 02:09:39.399
look at like a lot of the
other characters in the world and a couple

2052
02:09:39.479 --> 02:09:43.680
of other couple of other towns,
and like that game looks fantastic, It

2053
02:09:43.760 --> 02:09:50.399
looks beautiful, it looks neat,
like I keep liking what I'm seeing out

2054
02:09:50.399 --> 02:09:52.760
of it. Which that's the first
time I've said that about a Final Final

2055
02:09:52.800 --> 02:10:00.319
Fantasy game since they went polygonal.
So uh yeah, So I I don't

2056
02:10:00.319 --> 02:10:03.319
know, but also it feels like
that it feels like such a wide departure

2057
02:10:03.479 --> 02:10:05.600
from those games. Yeah, and
I think, yeah, I wonder if

2058
02:10:05.640 --> 02:10:07.680
it will I wonder how it will
go for them. I could see some

2059
02:10:07.840 --> 02:10:11.920
players getting ahold of this, like
the combat is so different from what it's

2060
02:10:11.960 --> 02:10:16.199
been, Like, I wonder if
people will just hate it for being like

2061
02:10:16.319 --> 02:10:18.960
slightly more action oriented or something.
But maybe, but I can see other

2062
02:10:18.000 --> 02:10:22.399
people maybe thinking it's not action worried
enough. That's like that it's kind of

2063
02:10:22.520 --> 02:10:24.560
my worry. It's kind of because
I'm at it going like, man,

2064
02:10:24.680 --> 02:10:26.800
I would love to play this game
if it was a little more actiony,

2065
02:10:26.920 --> 02:10:28.520
like I like the characters of the
world, like, like that stuff could

2066
02:10:28.520 --> 02:10:33.960
be really cool. But if it
is pulling back too much to try to

2067
02:10:33.359 --> 02:10:37.520
work in the more the standard kind
of Final Fantasy tropes to that gameplay,

2068
02:10:39.520 --> 02:10:43.920
I'll probably bow out of it at
some point. I haven't seen like I've

2069
02:10:43.119 --> 02:10:46.840
like scrutinized that footage and I've like
played all the demos and I've kind of

2070
02:10:46.880 --> 02:10:50.840
like spent some time digging into it, and I honestly feel like this,

2071
02:10:50.039 --> 02:10:52.960
to me feels like no other Final
Fantasy game I've played, it feels like

2072
02:10:54.039 --> 02:10:58.800
bits and pieces taken from other specific
games, But I don't. I don't

2073
02:10:58.880 --> 02:11:01.840
feel like I almost don't feel like
I'm playing a Final Fantasy game because it's

2074
02:11:01.880 --> 02:11:05.520
so like the thirteen games did action, but also like the camera was like

2075
02:11:05.720 --> 02:11:09.520
statics, and this is you can
actually look around the battlefield. Ultimately,

2076
02:11:09.560 --> 02:11:11.319
this thing wasn't a Final Fantasy game
to begin with, right, it was

2077
02:11:11.319 --> 02:11:15.439
a weird offshoot that was trying to
be its own thing. Yeah, this

2078
02:11:15.520 --> 02:11:18.199
is like effectively like this extreme case
of rebranding, you know, like bringing

2079
02:11:18.239 --> 02:11:20.520
it back into the fold. Well, I don't know, I think it

2080
02:11:20.680 --> 02:11:24.159
like you're saying it's the Yoshi's Island
of the Final Fantasy franchise. Basically what

2081
02:11:24.199 --> 02:11:28.359
I'm saying, I can get bind
that same could be the same Mario too,

2082
02:11:30.159 --> 02:11:35.079
Yeah, Fantasy USA. Something about
the marketing feels really strange to me

2083
02:11:35.199 --> 02:11:39.439
about this game, specifically, like
hearing you rattle off all these characters names,

2084
02:11:39.880 --> 02:11:43.000
like the extent to which they have
tried to like introduce and familiarize people

2085
02:11:43.159 --> 02:11:46.960
with the characters, Like months before
it came out, have you been watching

2086
02:11:48.000 --> 02:11:52.279
the anime? Let's move on,
there's no it's good. Like the movie

2087
02:11:52.319 --> 02:11:54.840
and the anime, did I really
do do? The anime is still going.

2088
02:11:56.520 --> 02:11:58.600
They do a really good job world
building. I guess it just seems

2089
02:11:58.600 --> 02:12:01.359
like, you know, when you're
getting down to like these specific personality traits

2090
02:12:01.399 --> 02:12:05.039
of your main characters, it seems
like that kind of thing you would will

2091
02:12:05.079 --> 02:12:07.279
discover into the course of playing the
game. To engage in any of that

2092
02:12:07.359 --> 02:12:09.680
stuff, I would have to play
the game first, like I would have.

2093
02:12:11.119 --> 02:12:11.800
That's what I played the game.
That's what I mean. More like

2094
02:12:13.000 --> 02:12:16.319
like I'm never I'm probably never gonna
be like I'm gonna watch this prologue series

2095
02:12:16.359 --> 02:12:18.359
before this game comes. Yeah,
I think point. I don't even know

2096
02:12:18.359 --> 02:12:22.119
if the games. There's something there's
something like very cart before the horse about

2097
02:12:22.159 --> 02:12:24.000
this whole thing of like here care
about these characters in this game you haven't

2098
02:12:24.000 --> 02:12:26.600
played and don't know if you like
yet, right, Like it's it's it's

2099
02:12:26.640 --> 02:12:31.800
weird. But I have a consumption
problem with Final Fantasy, so I'm seen

2100
02:12:31.840 --> 02:12:33.159
all of it. Yeah, No, plenty of people do, so I

2101
02:12:33.239 --> 02:12:35.960
get why they would try that approach. Yeah, I just sluss. You

2102
02:12:37.000 --> 02:12:39.159
know, it's a lot writing on
the game. I hear that I heard

2103
02:12:39.199 --> 02:12:45.880
that that movie was like kind of
awful. I loved it. The super

2104
02:12:45.920 --> 02:12:48.119
realistic looking cg one. It's all
over the place, Like it's not a

2105
02:12:48.199 --> 02:12:52.159
good it is not a good standalone
film. It's like if you're coming into

2106
02:12:52.199 --> 02:12:54.199
it not knowing anything, it's kind
of like, well, this is a

2107
02:12:54.279 --> 02:12:58.359
mess, what the hell's going on? And like there's a couple of instances

2108
02:12:58.399 --> 02:13:01.560
where like they like Fridge, a
character really early on and they like Fridge.

2109
02:13:03.359 --> 02:13:07.399
You know it's from Fridge when a
woman is killed just for the sake

2110
02:13:07.439 --> 02:13:09.239
of plot. Oh, I've never
heard that term. Yeah, there's like

2111
02:13:11.079 --> 02:13:13.319
there's like there's some some stuff like
that, and there's a couple of other

2112
02:13:13.359 --> 02:13:16.760
things that happened that just don't make
sense, and there's a weird emotional emotional

2113
02:13:16.840 --> 02:13:20.960
leaps. But like if you've sort
of been on the hype training Final Fantasy

2114
02:13:20.000 --> 02:13:24.039
fifteen and you understand like who these
characters are and like what's going on,

2115
02:13:24.319 --> 02:13:26.600
Like it is absolutely like a fantastic
film, Like it is the best Final

2116
02:13:26.640 --> 02:13:31.840
Fantasy film that that company has put
very high bars, very high, very

2117
02:13:31.920 --> 02:13:35.119
very high bar no, and it's
beautiful, Like the production value is fantastic,

2118
02:13:35.159 --> 02:13:37.880
But then there's also like some weird
stuff like we talked about this on

2119
02:13:37.960 --> 02:13:43.199
the on the Airship podcast Ultros from
Final Fantasy six, he's been in well

2120
02:13:43.199 --> 02:13:46.319
he's been in the marketing, Like
he's been in all the marketing and people

2121
02:13:46.359 --> 02:13:48.960
are like, oh, it's the
octopus. But he's literally like his sole

2122
02:13:48.039 --> 02:13:54.000
function is to appear on an airship
and just like he doesn't talk, doesn't

2123
02:13:54.039 --> 02:13:56.960
do anything, but like there's a
giant purple octopus on an airship and there's

2124
02:13:56.000 --> 02:13:58.920
no reason for him to be and
the movie just stuff that sounds really good.

2125
02:14:00.600 --> 02:14:01.640
That's like, yeah, all right, sure, why not? Yeah,

2126
02:14:01.680 --> 02:14:05.039
it's an amazing action sequence. Like
the way that they the way that

2127
02:14:05.119 --> 02:14:09.159
they the way that they do their
their action sequences in this film are fantastic.

2128
02:14:09.199 --> 02:14:13.399
But if you're just like I'm looking
for a good film and you walk

2129
02:14:13.439 --> 02:14:16.760
into it, it's just like what
did I see? Like I have friends

2130
02:14:16.800 --> 02:14:18.079
that aren't on the hype train and
they hate it, and like I really

2131
02:14:18.119 --> 02:14:22.760
loved it. Peter really liked it. Like but by itself, it's of

2132
02:14:22.800 --> 02:14:26.560
the star power someone like ming Nah, like Sean Bean. As I interviewed

2133
02:14:26.600 --> 02:14:31.439
Aaron Paul who plays the who plays
the main character, Well, there we

2134
02:14:31.520 --> 02:14:33.800
go. Yeah, it was Aaron
Paul and he was like, I didn't

2135
02:14:33.800 --> 02:14:37.119
know what all this stuff was and
then I read it and it was magic,

2136
02:14:37.199 --> 02:14:39.680
and I'm like, no, it
was great, Like he was really

2137
02:14:39.680 --> 02:14:41.800
excited about it. But they have
him, and they have Lena Hetty and

2138
02:14:41.840 --> 02:14:45.800
they had Sean Bean, and if
you know anything about characters that Sean Bean

2139
02:14:45.840 --> 02:14:48.479
plays, you can make a really
good guess happens in this film. No,

2140
02:14:48.640 --> 02:14:52.479
and they do a really good job, kind of a solid cast.

2141
02:14:52.720 --> 02:14:54.239
I'm surprised, Yeah, no,
no, they did. They They have

2142
02:14:54.399 --> 02:14:58.640
like a really really good job and
a lot of the actors that also did

2143
02:14:58.640 --> 02:15:01.560
the voice work did a lot of
the moke a up for the characters,

2144
02:15:01.640 --> 02:15:03.920
and it's very it's very beautiful,
like you can see the poor Yeah,

2145
02:15:03.960 --> 02:15:07.279
some of the so they sun called
a whole lot of money and yes,

2146
02:15:07.560 --> 02:15:09.720
yeah, but it was to their
credit. Some of the promo shots that

2147
02:15:09.760 --> 02:15:13.319
came out of that thing. Early
on, We're like is that a photograph?

2148
02:15:13.439 --> 02:15:13.720
Like what is it? What am
I looking at? Here? The

2149
02:15:13.720 --> 02:15:18.920
whole movie? The yeah, whole
film looks like that cool. I ended

2150
02:15:18.960 --> 02:15:22.199
up in a karaoke bar at the
International one night and they were just projecting

2151
02:15:22.199 --> 02:15:26.079
Advent Children really big on one wall
of this shitty karaoke bar, and it

2152
02:15:26.159 --> 02:15:30.359
was a kind of a magical moment
that film is. We just actually ended

2153
02:15:30.399 --> 02:15:33.600
up just setting around watching Advent Children
for a while. Didn't Mitch watch Advent

2154
02:15:33.680 --> 02:15:35.840
Children. He was not there.
He was at a game works playing Doda

2155
02:15:37.079 --> 02:15:41.960
that night. What Kessler saying he
did he went home? He did not

2156
02:15:41.079 --> 02:15:43.640
go He had to bail off.
He's worthy. There would be bananas at

2157
02:15:43.680 --> 02:15:48.880
the bars, like a camp near
him. Yes. Uh, let's see

2158
02:15:48.119 --> 02:15:52.039
one more quick story. It's kind
of a it's a sort of a small

2159
02:15:52.079 --> 02:15:56.520
thing, but cappies below has been
late. Man. I wonder if the

2160
02:15:56.600 --> 02:16:01.920
Nomian's sky stuff rattled them a little
bit and felt compelled to say something what

2161
02:16:01.079 --> 02:16:05.520
stuff specifically? You think, like
you know how well you saw the big

2162
02:16:05.560 --> 02:16:07.720
reddit thread were like the witch hunt
for no Man Sky where that guy like

2163
02:16:09.199 --> 02:16:15.159
compiled every interview. Think you think
blow occupies that kind of space. I

2164
02:16:15.159 --> 02:16:18.039
don't feel like they've like overpromised for
that thing, if anything like No I

2165
02:16:18.840 --> 02:16:20.960
like I know basically, like broadly
what kind of game it is, But

2166
02:16:20.960 --> 02:16:24.039
I don't feel like they've like promised
the moon. And I'm looking for a

2167
02:16:24.119 --> 02:16:28.439
bunch of features or no, they
haven't. But I can definitely understand the

2168
02:16:30.159 --> 02:16:33.639
feeling of a smaller indie studio creating
a game like I've played below a couple

2169
02:16:33.639 --> 02:16:37.079
of times at the preview events,
and it's very big. Like it's not

2170
02:16:37.319 --> 02:16:39.200
like I don't want to call it
like No Man Sky big, but they're

2171
02:16:39.200 --> 02:16:41.239
putting a lot of thought into it. It's a very deep, very big

2172
02:16:41.319 --> 02:16:46.399
world, and I can definitely see
why a team like that saw what happened

2173
02:16:46.440 --> 02:16:48.920
around around No Man Sky, looked
at their game, knew that they needed

2174
02:16:48.959 --> 02:16:52.120
more time, and decided that they
wanted to just say something to get ahead

2175
02:16:52.159 --> 02:16:54.760
of the messaging instead of just like, hey, a few weeks before our

2176
02:16:56.000 --> 02:16:58.920
promised release date. By the way, we're not going to make it now.

2177
02:16:58.120 --> 02:17:03.719
Yeah. But also Hello Games has
been and Sony have been completely silent

2178
02:17:03.840 --> 02:17:07.760
on this whole thing, Like they
haven't really said anything. So they haven't

2179
02:17:07.760 --> 02:17:11.799
even been putting out like amazing patch
notes for the pass for the well they

2180
02:17:13.520 --> 02:17:16.840
push two patches over the weekend,
right, I think I think you know,

2181
02:17:16.879 --> 02:17:18.799
I mean, Hello Games is still
a small studio, right, Like

2182
02:17:18.040 --> 02:17:22.479
that's either they're sitting around answering email
and writing patch notes or they're fixing the

2183
02:17:22.520 --> 02:17:26.399
fucking game. Yeah, you know, so I think kind of can't do

2184
02:17:26.559 --> 02:17:28.120
both. My impression is all the
patches so far are just bug fixes.

2185
02:17:28.120 --> 02:17:31.799
There's kind of not much to talk
about there. Yeah, we fixed a

2186
02:17:31.840 --> 02:17:35.200
bunch stuff, yeah, have been. They did eventually put out a list

2187
02:17:35.239 --> 02:17:37.120
for some of those patches that was
just like, hey, you can all

2188
02:17:37.159 --> 02:17:39.520
tab now. Yeah on the PC
version, it's not going to break it.

2189
02:17:39.760 --> 02:17:41.399
But like I definitely see where Cappy
maybe wanted to get ahead of the

2190
02:17:41.440 --> 02:17:43.840
messaging and just be like, hey, our game is coming, We're not

2191
02:17:43.920 --> 02:17:48.159
ready yet, like please don't.
Yeah, yeah, they're they're pretty earnest

2192
02:17:48.200 --> 02:17:50.399
them. I won't read this whole
message, but they're pretty earnest about like,

2193
02:17:50.479 --> 02:17:52.760
yeah, you know, it's not
quite where we want it to be,

2194
02:17:52.959 --> 02:17:54.479
and we're not going to promise another
release date. We're just gonna go

2195
02:17:54.559 --> 02:17:58.639
dark for a while, and the
next time you hear from us, we

2196
02:17:58.680 --> 02:18:01.559
will have a date. But we're
ready to say that yet. So that's

2197
02:18:01.559 --> 02:18:05.239
smart that it looks great every time
I've seen it. I'm like super excited

2198
02:18:05.239 --> 02:18:09.120
to play it. But the laser
understandable, you know, like you gotta

2199
02:18:09.239 --> 02:18:13.639
you gotta look at the upside of
the stuff and not be disappointed that it's

2200
02:18:13.680 --> 02:18:16.159
not coming soon because you have to
assume it will be a better game for

2201
02:18:16.239 --> 02:18:18.680
it. Yeah. I went to
stuff like this when it's like, you

2202
02:18:18.719 --> 02:18:22.479
know, two weeks before release and
they you know, obviously have known for

2203
02:18:22.520 --> 02:18:24.920
a while but just decided to message
it. Then, Like that's the stuff

2204
02:18:24.920 --> 02:18:26.680
where you're like, man, this
this didn't need to be this way,

2205
02:18:26.879 --> 02:18:28.840
but yeah, this seems yeah,
I mean that. Yeah, this game

2206
02:18:28.920 --> 02:18:31.079
never had a firm date to begin
with. Games get pushed to that.

2207
02:18:31.639 --> 02:18:33.840
Yep. Uh, it does happen
pre order games, Yes, they don't.

2208
02:18:35.440 --> 02:18:41.040
Continues continues to be solid wisdom.
All right, Jason, I'm going

2209
02:18:41.120 --> 02:18:46.360
to test your metal this time.
Emails what you get. That's what you

2210
02:18:46.440 --> 02:18:50.799
get for getting out ahead of it. Last time is man, hold up,

2211
02:18:52.000 --> 02:18:54.879
she's always playing sound cues, no
headphones on. We don't even know

2212
02:18:54.879 --> 02:18:58.040
if he's gonna play the right I
don't even know if this emails. There's

2213
02:18:58.079 --> 02:19:03.200
nothing coming out. I don't see
emails. Hey, there it is.

2214
02:19:03.280 --> 02:19:09.280
Emails. Emails, emails, emails, femmails BombCast giant bomb dot com.

2215
02:19:11.399 --> 02:19:15.360
Uh, this email comes in from
requested that I'm not read their name,

2216
02:19:16.120 --> 02:19:20.520
all right, mysterious black hat hacker. Yep, yeah, totally not exactly.

2217
02:19:20.920 --> 02:19:24.000
I'm in Colorado Springs, where you
can buy dope, and while I'm

2218
02:19:24.000 --> 02:19:28.200
not a big stoner, the stars
aligned such that my wife and child left

2219
02:19:28.239 --> 02:19:31.719
town for six days right when No
Man's Sky was released. Oh shit,

2220
02:19:31.959 --> 02:19:35.559
I figured, as Jeff did,
that this game seemed made for getting ripped,

2221
02:19:35.639 --> 02:19:39.760
sitting back and cruising through space,
checking out beautiful atmospheric colors that are

2222
02:19:39.799 --> 02:19:43.760
only possible because they re engineered the
periodic table. The unfortunate fact is that

2223
02:19:43.879 --> 02:19:48.200
the flaws that you've gone over,
the repetitive gameplay, the repetitive objectives,

2224
02:19:48.200 --> 02:19:54.079
and especially the ever present inventory management
are magnified by being stoned, serving only

2225
02:19:54.159 --> 02:19:56.520
to make me frustrated that I am
not only wasting my time in inventories,

2226
02:19:56.600 --> 02:20:01.000
but wasting my best chance to get
weird by my self in a decade.

2227
02:20:01.000 --> 02:20:03.399
I played the game sober for a
couple of days, and turns out it's

2228
02:20:03.440 --> 02:20:07.680
just fine, not great, but
fine. In my experience. Using the

2229
02:20:07.799 --> 02:20:11.680
drugs only makes it more of a
frustrating, obtuscated mess. Bye the Bye.

2230
02:20:11.760 --> 02:20:15.159
I wrote this while watching Your Grow
Up Quick Look, and I can't

2231
02:20:15.159 --> 02:20:18.840
wait until my family leaves again,
because that looks like a game to play

2232
02:20:18.879 --> 02:20:24.079
while you're out of your mind.
I know, Yeah, he's doing a

2233
02:20:24.120 --> 02:20:28.159
lot of drugs. So right,
So I had had people on Twitter say

2234
02:20:28.680 --> 02:20:33.159
that the opposite really that no Man
Sky was fantastic. Oh, it's kind

2235
02:20:33.159 --> 02:20:37.319
of people that are high on the
drugs. Yes. I think it just

2236
02:20:37.399 --> 02:20:41.079
affects people differently, like I could
I could see being totally paranoid. It's

2237
02:20:41.079 --> 02:20:46.440
like, oh fu, my oxygen
is gonna run out. These hopp mushrooms

2238
02:20:46.440 --> 02:20:48.520
are gonna jump on top of me. Joke, those mushrooms are terrifying.

2239
02:20:50.799 --> 02:20:54.079
Uh. Proposition sixty four coming up
in November. We'll see what happens.

2240
02:20:54.159 --> 02:20:56.360
Oh for California, Yep, yep, good job. I think it's sixty

2241
02:20:56.399 --> 02:20:58.719
four US. I saw it on
the news yesterday. Can't you buy dope

2242
02:20:58.799 --> 02:21:05.040
now? You need to medically,
you need to have a glaucoma glaucoma or

2243
02:21:05.120 --> 02:21:09.440
just to get it now, you
like, or sadness or just like we'll

2244
02:21:09.479 --> 02:21:13.680
talk to somebody over a webcam right
and they're they're like, are you need

2245
02:21:13.760 --> 02:21:16.559
the dope? Yes? I've heard
people let me get you a recommendation.

2246
02:21:16.559 --> 02:21:18.079
I've heard of people doing it remotely
here. Yeah, I walk by a

2247
02:21:18.200 --> 02:21:22.120
dispensary. I'm a wait of the
bus every day. Yeah, they have

2248
02:21:22.200 --> 02:21:24.079
a bouncer out, yes, the
one one open, like one of them

2249
02:21:24.200 --> 02:21:28.760
very close to me recently. And
yes there's a burly leaking dude standing outside

2250
02:21:28.799 --> 02:21:31.200
at all time. It's not to
protect the dope. Makes sense. Yeah,

2251
02:21:31.280 --> 02:21:35.200
cash cash crop, Yeah, they
should, they should legalize that.

2252
02:21:35.200 --> 02:21:39.319
I wonder if i'll pass here.
I know, yeah, there was so

2253
02:21:39.559 --> 02:21:41.680
the news broke it down yesterday.
Like the pro side has put millions of

2254
02:21:41.760 --> 02:21:46.799
dollars into their campaign. The anti
side has spent like one hundred thousand dollars

2255
02:21:46.000 --> 02:21:50.799
so far on opposing it. So
and this is just to make it like

2256
02:21:50.200 --> 02:21:52.799
recreation. Yeah, it's the same
thing that Seattle did, or I mean

2257
02:21:54.040 --> 02:21:58.479
Washington State did, Colorado waunch of
others. Right, It's like California is

2258
02:21:58.520 --> 02:22:03.680
lagging at this point in that regard
because so much it has grown here by

2259
02:22:03.760 --> 02:22:05.840
people that have an interest in keeping
it illegal to keep the prices high and

2260
02:22:05.920 --> 02:22:09.639
untaxed. That you know that.
It's I think the politics of I get

2261
02:22:09.639 --> 02:22:13.120
a little murkier around here. My
understanding was last time, but I don't

2262
02:22:13.120 --> 02:22:16.559
know. I think there was a
lot of out of state money involved in

2263
02:22:16.639 --> 02:22:20.200
fighting it last time. Yeah,
I think you're right. Anyway, I

2264
02:22:20.280 --> 02:22:22.239
want to digress too much. I
don't care. Man. Uh yeah,

2265
02:22:22.799 --> 02:22:26.879
don't give a fuck. I don't
give a fuck. All right, good

2266
02:22:26.879 --> 02:22:31.079
to know. Spencer from Sydney writes
in with our weekly Kim dot com update.

2267
02:22:31.239 --> 02:22:33.079
Oh thank god, I know.
Yeah, I know you've been wondering.

2268
02:22:33.479 --> 02:22:35.680
I heard you guys mentioned Kim dot
com when the subject of another Metroid

2269
02:22:35.760 --> 02:22:41.639
to remake came up, specifically the
remake being DMCA by Nintendo, and that

2270
02:22:41.760 --> 02:22:46.600
the Mega link was even taken down. You said, oh no, if

2271
02:22:46.680 --> 02:22:48.479
Kim dot com is involved, it
must be serious. But something you might

2272
02:22:48.559 --> 02:22:52.440
not know is that Kim dot com
was forced out of Mega by a Chinese

2273
02:22:52.520 --> 02:22:58.440
company during a hostile takeover. He
currently actively advises against using the site and

2274
02:22:58.600 --> 02:23:03.000
is now trying to resurrect Mega upload
dot com with even more security features.

2275
02:23:03.799 --> 02:23:09.319
So I just love that there is
a guy apparently in Sidney, Australia,

2276
02:23:09.440 --> 02:23:16.360
where when he hears of Kim dot
com goes, well, yepmail, thank

2277
02:23:16.440 --> 02:23:20.840
you. It's fascinating. I think
the whole point of like when when Mega

2278
02:23:20.920 --> 02:23:24.200
got launched, it was like the
idea of like, oh this is extra

2279
02:23:24.280 --> 02:23:28.680
super secure and all other stuff.
So I could see why this Chinese company

2280
02:23:28.719 --> 02:23:31.200
got in the middle of all this. Yeah, now now he's trying to

2281
02:23:31.239 --> 02:23:37.040
wrap back around. I briefly wound
up starting to read an interview yesterday with

2282
02:23:37.159 --> 02:23:41.399
Mona dot com after reading this email, and then I was like, I

2283
02:23:43.040 --> 02:23:50.000
questioning my life choices wife. Oh
yeah, it's the idea that somebody would

2284
02:23:50.000 --> 02:23:54.280
not only marry him but actually changed
to dot com dot com. Why why

2285
02:23:54.399 --> 02:23:56.280
is too much for me? Why? Maybe this gentleman can write back in

2286
02:23:56.399 --> 02:24:00.440
and explain to me why his name
is Kim dot com. I mean he

2287
02:24:00.559 --> 02:24:03.399
changed it, but what but why
to have his name be the domain?

2288
02:24:05.280 --> 02:24:09.520
Does he owned Kim dot com?
So I don't know what Kim dot com

2289
02:24:09.639 --> 02:24:13.680
dot com he was. He was
kimball dot org, right, wasn't that

2290
02:24:13.840 --> 02:24:15.920
him back in? That sounds right, like way back in the day.

2291
02:24:16.040 --> 02:24:20.280
Sounds right? I think that was
him Arnold Soundboards. Uh yes, oh

2292
02:24:20.440 --> 02:24:24.600
fuck? I mean I went to
Kim dot com and I believe that's his

2293
02:24:24.680 --> 02:24:28.920
yacht. Okay, I believe it. There is apparently put at him download

2294
02:24:28.920 --> 02:24:35.639
the album apparently he put out Yes, Wow, there's music video. There's

2295
02:24:35.639 --> 02:24:37.680
several music videos. Watch the video
of the raid. Here's a picture of

2296
02:24:37.719 --> 02:24:41.440
the white house. Ruth will come
out. What the fuck is going on?

2297
02:24:41.639 --> 02:24:46.639
US government versus U and Kim dot
Com? What yes? So Mega

2298
02:24:46.760 --> 02:24:50.399
Upload, the copyright lobby and the
future of digital rights? Oh he wrote

2299
02:24:50.440 --> 02:24:52.760
a white paper. Okay, wow, okay, uh? Ten facts about

2300
02:24:52.760 --> 02:24:58.200
the Mega upload scandal. The rabbit
hole he is. He is mister Internet.

2301
02:24:58.319 --> 02:25:01.159
Basically it's got a bo as internet
as you can get. Closing this

2302
02:25:01.239 --> 02:25:03.360
time, and apparently quite a good
call of duty player. Yeah he was.

2303
02:25:03.559 --> 02:25:07.159
I think he was like he was
he was a counterstrike pro or what

2304
02:25:07.239 --> 02:25:09.719
was call of duty pro? I
think he was like number one on some

2305
02:25:09.799 --> 02:25:13.520
call of duty theater board was.
After the bust and everything, he was

2306
02:25:13.559 --> 02:25:16.840
like some frighteningly good I guess maybe
it was called of duty not CYS.

2307
02:25:16.840 --> 02:25:20.479
So weird. Weird, dude.
We live in strange times. I know.

2308
02:25:22.000 --> 02:25:24.639
It's great. Yeah, it's great
that the world is this weird.

2309
02:25:24.719 --> 02:25:31.600
Could be worse. Uh, let's
see. Uh this one also anonymous,

2310
02:25:33.399 --> 02:25:37.200
Hey, guys, Associates of mine
work for an organization negotiating for the freedom

2311
02:25:37.239 --> 02:25:41.719
of wrongfully jailed prisoners. With a
recent success story gaining traction in the news.

2312
02:25:41.319 --> 02:25:43.959
After eleven years in prison, this
young man is finally being released,

2313
02:25:45.000 --> 02:25:48.159
and I have been tasked with putting
together a video game care package for him.

2314
02:25:48.799 --> 02:25:50.680
What do you get for someone that's
been on the inside for over a

2315
02:25:50.799 --> 02:25:56.639
decade whose last console was an original
PlayStation two? What are the important things

2316
02:25:56.719 --> 02:26:00.760
from last generation? They must play? What from this generation? They're also

2317
02:26:00.799 --> 02:26:03.319
a big wrestling fan, so I
considered getting them the first and last wrestling

2318
02:26:03.399 --> 02:26:07.840
games that came out during their sentence, But on further consideration, that may

2319
02:26:07.879 --> 02:26:13.760
actually do more harm than good.
Any suggestions with the characters to get back

2320
02:26:13.799 --> 02:26:16.840
into wrestling. So that's what I
was thinking. Is this I don't totally

2321
02:26:18.000 --> 02:26:20.239
think it is. I don't believe
he was. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

2322
02:26:20.280 --> 02:26:22.360
I do. I don't know.
I just read the entirety of the

2323
02:26:22.360 --> 02:26:24.639
email, so anything he was,
he was a wrestling fan. He was

2324
02:26:24.719 --> 02:26:31.319
just released. Actually, yeah,
well this is finally being released, right.

2325
02:26:31.360 --> 02:26:33.559
I don't know that this has taken
place yet. I think he's being

2326
02:26:33.799 --> 02:26:35.959
I don't know if he's at home
yet, but I know that he was

2327
02:26:37.040 --> 02:26:41.200
a big wrestling fan. Huh oh
Grand theft Auto. Yeah, that was

2328
02:26:41.239 --> 02:26:45.360
actually, my first the first thing
that cand of mine was absolutely GTA five

2329
02:26:46.079 --> 02:26:48.360
five. I was trying to think, I was trying to think back,

2330
02:26:48.360 --> 02:26:54.079
where was GTA eleven, which if
the man hunt, I think city would

2331
02:26:54.079 --> 02:27:00.239
have been OUTTA I'm sorry, two
thousand and five onward right Kingdoms for eleven

2332
02:27:00.319 --> 02:27:03.120
years. Yeah, so that might
have been even San Andreas, so that

2333
02:27:03.399 --> 02:27:07.120
then, but given five yeah,
yeah, sure, just to kind of

2334
02:27:07.120 --> 02:27:11.120
see how far things have come.
Oh yeah, with a with a game

2335
02:27:11.239 --> 02:27:15.760
that this person is most likely familiar
with by owning a PlayStation two. That's

2336
02:27:15.760 --> 02:27:18.079
I think that's a that's just a
if you want to see the size and

2337
02:27:18.079 --> 02:27:20.360
scope of games and how they've changed, that's probably a good one. To

2338
02:27:20.760 --> 02:27:26.520
wrestling stars, Yeah, yeah,
yes, I can get behind that.

2339
02:27:26.680 --> 02:27:28.440
Yeah, that would be you know, that's yeah, Okay, that's not

2340
02:27:28.479 --> 02:27:31.719
going to bring you up to date
on modern wrestling the way that a person

2341
02:27:31.840 --> 02:27:35.239
in that situation may want to.
But if you're in jail and my understand

2342
02:27:35.319 --> 02:27:37.600
is that they just watch wrestling all
the time anyway, okay, so maybe

2343
02:27:37.600 --> 02:27:43.479
he's up on the storylines, So
yeah, I might see w w E

2344
02:27:43.559 --> 02:27:46.280
All Stars. That'd be a cheap
game to get. That is a fun,

2345
02:27:46.360 --> 02:27:48.600
good time, though that's only if
you have someone else to play with.

2346
02:27:48.719 --> 02:27:54.799
Plane alone's not not always the greatest
alex. So you get any ideas

2347
02:27:56.760 --> 02:28:03.719
it stands out from the last I
don't know which are which were, but

2348
02:28:03.879 --> 02:28:05.520
like, you know, this person
has been on the inside for so outside

2349
02:28:05.760 --> 02:28:11.440
exactly go outside. Not the Wicher
three I think is good. I don't

2350
02:28:11.440 --> 02:28:15.159
know which Whicher is a good example
of. Like here's how fucking big a

2351
02:28:15.200 --> 02:28:18.319
game? Yeah, that's day and
Age, Like just the sheer scale is

2352
02:28:18.639 --> 02:28:20.600
is really something? Yeah, I
don't know, Pokemon go, that'll get

2353
02:28:20.639 --> 02:28:24.719
him outside? Yeah, uh yeah, give him a smartphone like ship.

2354
02:28:26.719 --> 02:28:28.840
There was no iPhone when he went
on, can you I was thinking about

2355
02:28:28.879 --> 02:28:31.520
this just reason. I was driving
past a bus stop and saw three people

2356
02:28:31.680 --> 02:28:33.600
just like staring at their phones,
and I was like, you know,

2357
02:28:33.680 --> 02:28:35.920
some people probably still look at that
and go, man, we're going to

2358
02:28:35.959 --> 02:28:39.200
ship. The world's going down.
It's like fuck that that could be sitting

2359
02:28:39.200 --> 02:28:41.760
in the red newspapers would be it
would be just as locked down, like

2360
02:28:41.959 --> 02:28:46.440
the world is better as a result
of all these phones. God damn it,

2361
02:28:46.079 --> 02:28:48.200
you're already here first. No,
and yeah, I was just thinking,

2362
02:28:48.319 --> 02:28:50.639
like, man, that's like so
recent in the grand scheme of things,

2363
02:28:50.879 --> 02:28:56.040
I can't imagine, you know what
I bet depending on where he was

2364
02:28:56.200 --> 02:29:00.959
locked up, I bet that you'd
probably see some smartphones kicking around inside.

2365
02:29:01.120 --> 02:29:05.879
Maybe it's getting smuggled in somehow,
sure, who knows, Yeah, playing

2366
02:29:05.920 --> 02:29:09.799
some candy crush, Yes, indeed, all right, gta at a smartphone?

2367
02:29:09.840 --> 02:29:13.559
That's a good start, or three
DS. Maybe maybe there's a ton

2368
02:29:13.600 --> 02:29:16.280
of Nintendo stuff about it too,
there is. But is he a Mario

2369
02:29:16.440 --> 02:29:20.559
kind of guy? If he likes
wrestling? Oh, I imagine wrestling.

2370
02:29:22.479 --> 02:29:26.239
So yeah, like if anything Mario
at this point, is the more Dan

2371
02:29:26.360 --> 02:29:31.120
fits in that that diagram for sure? Yeah, yeah, he's a fan

2372
02:29:31.239 --> 02:29:37.719
boy monster Hunter. No, welcome
back to I would rather go back to

2373
02:29:37.799 --> 02:29:43.959
jail at that point. It's dark, but also good start. It's a

2374
02:29:43.959 --> 02:29:46.040
good start. Paradise, it's a
good game. Hey, are there any

2375
02:29:46.120 --> 02:29:50.280
good mods for Brend not Paradise?
Not really, not really, not that

2376
02:29:50.319 --> 02:29:52.719
I've seen anyway, Really, I
don't. I think sounds like a prime

2377
02:29:52.799 --> 02:29:56.520
candid. I don't know that I
much wacky mods. Yeah, they put

2378
02:29:56.559 --> 02:30:00.559
out their own DLC for it,
and most that's in that version that's sold

2379
02:30:00.600 --> 02:30:03.319
on Steam now, but I don't
know that there was. Yeah, I

2380
02:30:03.319 --> 02:30:05.559
guess, I don't know. I
haven't really looked. I think I saw

2381
02:30:05.680 --> 02:30:09.120
one that that like added a new
area or something like that, or but

2382
02:30:09.639 --> 02:30:11.159
yeah, I booted it up over
the weekend just and then, yes,

2383
02:30:11.239 --> 02:30:15.399
that are looking for mods then really
find anything, though, Yeah, like

2384
02:30:15.440 --> 02:30:16.680
I would love like a you know, a high definition like you know,

2385
02:30:18.159 --> 02:30:20.719
sure like fucking HDR shit, you
know that you're seeing like a theft out

2386
02:30:20.760 --> 02:30:24.680
over or whatever that looking amazing.
Yeah, I just tend to not look

2387
02:30:24.719 --> 02:30:28.399
for mods that for games that are
usually not like explicitly modeble sure, because

2388
02:30:28.399 --> 02:30:31.879
they always seem just JANKI enough that
it's like, I don't know if I

2389
02:30:31.920 --> 02:30:35.159
have it in me to hassle with
this, and that seemed like that type

2390
02:30:35.200 --> 02:30:41.639
of game. You're a tinkerer though, sometimes Yeah, you like to mess

2391
02:30:41.719 --> 02:30:45.600
around. Let's do some stuff,
all right. Let me tell you about

2392
02:30:45.639 --> 02:30:48.559
downloading your own navmish. What if
I cheat engine? I was about to

2393
02:30:48.600 --> 02:30:52.760
say, explaine, then I could
fly through the earth. You're more the

2394
02:30:54.000 --> 02:30:56.719
like editing a hex address type than
the clean faces type. Yeah, I

2395
02:30:56.840 --> 02:31:01.399
was more of the like, yes, exactly like editing floppy disks like save

2396
02:31:01.520 --> 02:31:03.559
games on floppy disks to give myself
more money. Like that was that was

2397
02:31:03.600 --> 02:31:07.520
that cost? I can see.
I did end up buying a mod that

2398
02:31:07.680 --> 02:31:09.920
changed a bunch of sounds in the
game, because like the loop for the

2399
02:31:11.000 --> 02:31:15.760
Sesna was like three seconds long and
very apparent. So I paid eight bucks

2400
02:31:15.799 --> 02:31:18.120
and nice got a nice good one, got yourself a nice ten hour sound.

2401
02:31:18.159 --> 02:31:22.079
Five. Yeah, there you go, Jonathan writes in from Sugarland,

2402
02:31:22.159 --> 02:31:26.239
Texas, with what I think is
probably the most exciting email of the week.

2403
02:31:26.399 --> 02:31:28.200
Boh all right. At games Calm, it was revealed that the Tech

2404
02:31:28.239 --> 02:31:33.079
and seven story mode will include going
through events in past tech and games such

2405
02:31:33.120 --> 02:31:37.239
as young Hey Hotchi beating up kid
Kazaa, along with the E three news

2406
02:31:37.280 --> 02:31:41.200
of having qts just like in Mortal
Kombat. Uh. Is it safe to

2407
02:31:41.280 --> 02:31:46.959
say that pressing the QTE to have
Hey Hotchi throw Kazaa off a volcano could

2408
02:31:46.959 --> 02:31:50.639
at least be a candidate for best
moment of twenty seventeen. I sure hope

2409
02:31:50.680 --> 02:31:54.680
it's in there better. Yeah,
but have you seen the screenshots for this,

2410
02:31:56.799 --> 02:32:00.559
like an actual child? Yes?
So? Oh wow. I didn't

2411
02:32:00.559 --> 02:32:03.440
know they're going that far back.
It's really uh yeah, I hadn't heard

2412
02:32:03.440 --> 02:32:05.920
about any of that stuff, but
fucking Tech and seven sounds a better every

2413
02:32:05.959 --> 02:32:09.239
time I hear about it. Damn, I can't wait. I don't know

2414
02:32:09.280 --> 02:32:11.719
how we live in a world put
out. I think like in Video's YouTube

2415
02:32:11.799 --> 02:32:16.120
channel put out a footage of Tech
and seven run at four CRISP, But

2416
02:32:16.159 --> 02:32:18.159
it was like all full of disclaimers
like, hey, this is not us

2417
02:32:18.200 --> 02:32:20.440
saying that the PC version of a
game will even support four K. It

2418
02:32:20.479 --> 02:32:22.200
still only works, blah blah blah
blah blah. But here you go,

2419
02:32:22.360 --> 02:32:28.360
here's this. Here you go.
Look good? Uh you see video put

2420
02:32:28.440 --> 02:32:33.440
up like a gigapixel screenshot of the
witcher. Yeah, you'd have to go

2421
02:32:33.520 --> 02:32:35.440
look at it, but you can. You can zoom in to the point

2422
02:32:35.520 --> 02:32:39.399
that you would need like ten bazillion
monitors to show the whole thing. Some

2423
02:32:39.520 --> 02:32:43.559
really weird stuff going on. Uh, let's see. Alex writes in from

2424
02:32:43.600 --> 02:32:48.680
Seattle with packs looming. I'm writing
to you since Pax West is right around

2425
02:32:48.680 --> 02:32:52.399
the corner. Just wondering if Jeff
has ever been to the Seattle Pinball Museum.

2426
02:32:52.959 --> 02:32:56.040
It's about a mile south of the
convention in the International District. It's

2427
02:32:56.040 --> 02:32:58.600
a great place with lots of tables
and you can play them all for about

2428
02:32:58.639 --> 02:33:01.479
fifteen dollars a day for as long
as you want. They also have beer

2429
02:33:01.559 --> 02:33:05.799
and other refreshments if you have time, I strongly recommend you check it out.

2430
02:33:05.840 --> 02:33:07.079
I might try to make it to
make it over there. Never been

2431
02:33:07.120 --> 02:33:09.520
there, No, I have a
totally go with you. It would be

2432
02:33:09.559 --> 02:33:11.959
great, man. That's maybe we
should just kick off packs for an afternoon.

2433
02:33:13.440 --> 02:33:15.600
Like I didn't. I didn't.
I don't know why Seattle is such

2434
02:33:15.600 --> 02:33:18.120
a big pinball place. There's also
that shorties, shorties, Yes, that

2435
02:33:18.159 --> 02:33:22.479
bar and Seattle has got a ton
Oh yeah, I got like fight outside

2436
02:33:22.520 --> 02:33:26.440
that place. Dogs. That's where
that's where we at our dog city.

2437
02:33:28.840 --> 02:33:33.440
It's right. Yeah, They've got
like probably twenty tables in that place or

2438
02:33:33.440 --> 02:33:35.799
something right in the back. I
keep meaning to get over to. There's

2439
02:33:35.799 --> 02:33:39.399
a place here in town called Free
gold Watch. Oh yeah, I like

2440
02:33:39.479 --> 02:33:41.600
that place. Yeah? Is it
just like can you just go there and

2441
02:33:41.680 --> 02:33:43.280
play stuff? Okay? Because every
when I look up their page, it's

2442
02:33:43.280 --> 02:33:46.040
all about like, hey, here's
the pinball leagues and it's league night for

2443
02:33:46.079 --> 02:33:48.840
pinball. It's like all this other
stuff. It's at that place in the

2444
02:33:48.879 --> 02:33:52.000
hate. Uh yeah, I think
so. Yeah, go over there and

2445
02:33:52.040 --> 02:33:58.200
get some Cuban food at prout of
twenty two. You can chat as well.

2446
02:33:58.600 --> 02:34:01.120
If you want to pick up some
vinyl, you can go to uh

2447
02:34:01.399 --> 02:34:05.799
right there. We did recently acquire
a record player. Man. Nice,

2448
02:34:05.120 --> 02:34:09.159
it was great, but yeah,
it's just it's a maybe like twelve machines,

2449
02:34:09.479 --> 02:34:13.200
okay, something like that. I
saw they had an MK three machine

2450
02:34:13.280 --> 02:34:16.000
okay, looked like they had some
non some actuable video stuff, not just

2451
02:34:16.079 --> 02:34:20.079
that. That's where I first played
a Wizard of Oz okay, which is

2452
02:34:20.079 --> 02:34:22.000
fun. Yeah, it's a weird
machine. Yeah. Also I discovered that

2453
02:34:22.360 --> 02:34:26.719
the Jurassic Park arcade machine is great, the Sega shooter, that Model three

2454
02:34:26.760 --> 02:34:31.040
thing. No, the pinball okay
yeah yeah yeah did I say ArKade again?

2455
02:34:31.200 --> 02:34:33.760
Okay, yeah, sorry, the
pinball machine. Also apparently they do

2456
02:34:35.600 --> 02:34:39.239
T shirt screen printing there and yeah, my understanding is that was their main

2457
02:34:39.360 --> 02:34:41.680
business, and they had some pinball
machines and okay, some pointed now I

2458
02:34:41.799 --> 02:34:43.639
was I was in my mind,
I was like, how the funk are

2459
02:34:43.639 --> 02:34:46.600
they running an arcade in San Francisco, Like there's no way you could afford

2460
02:34:46.680 --> 02:34:50.959
that. Yeah, that makes more
sense. Yeah, yeah, it's nice

2461
02:34:52.719 --> 02:35:00.639
good things. A third anonymous email
unprecedented. None of these are actually anonymous.

2462
02:35:00.639 --> 02:35:01.840
I have the names, but I'm
not gonna say I'm Edward Snowden.

2463
02:35:03.200 --> 02:35:07.319
You never know. I work for
a NASA contractor to design and test equipment

2464
02:35:07.360 --> 02:35:11.120
for future missions. Order to test
equipment I helped design before we send it

2465
02:35:11.200 --> 02:35:18.000
into space. We are going on
a reduced gravity parabolic aircraft which has the

2466
02:35:18.040 --> 02:35:20.719
affectionate name. I'm sure you've heard
of it, the vomit Comet. Yeah,

2467
02:35:20.879 --> 02:35:22.799
that's the one. The way the
flight works is the plane goes up

2468
02:35:22.840 --> 02:35:26.760
at a steep forty five degree angle
while experiencing two x Earth's gravity. Then

2469
02:35:26.799 --> 02:35:31.520
it begins to arc, giving twenty
five seconds of micro gravity, then descends

2470
02:35:31.559 --> 02:35:35.840
at a forty five degree angle with
two x Earth's gravity. Again. The

2471
02:35:35.879 --> 02:35:39.159
process repeats itself a number of times
during the flight. This constant up and

2472
02:35:39.239 --> 02:35:43.799
down can make passenger sick, thus
giving the aircraft its name, the vomit

2473
02:35:43.879 --> 02:35:46.040
Comet. Obviously, I am super
pumped to go on this flight, but

2474
02:35:46.120 --> 02:35:50.079
I have a question for you guys. If you could experience zero gravity for

2475
02:35:50.159 --> 02:35:52.879
a twenty five second period, what
would you do with it? Vomit everywhere.

2476
02:35:54.239 --> 02:35:58.920
The coolest fucking skateboard tricks you've ever
seen. Just bring your deck with

2477
02:35:58.040 --> 02:36:01.399
your yes in case, no wheels
on it. Finally nailed that, all

2478
02:36:01.799 --> 02:36:07.879
Yeah, shoot a deck of cars. Oh that's not bad. I would

2479
02:36:07.000 --> 02:36:13.520
urinate. I mean yeah, with
or without pants without I mean you you

2480
02:36:13.600 --> 02:36:16.239
know, well why would why would
you wear pants in this? I guess

2481
02:36:16.239 --> 02:36:20.520
that's true. Yeah, wear anything
if it's zero G get naked, yeah,

2482
02:36:20.879 --> 02:36:26.000
true, Yeah, it's pretty solid. Something with liquids would be fun.

2483
02:36:26.319 --> 02:36:28.600
Yeah, something with it doesn't necessarily
need to be vomiting. But do

2484
02:36:28.680 --> 02:36:31.639
the thing like the the I don't
know if it's If it's micro gravity,

2485
02:36:31.680 --> 02:36:35.239
then maybe it wouldn't actually work as
well as we're thinking. But I'm thinking

2486
02:36:35.319 --> 02:36:37.920
like the shot of the astronaut and
the fucking blaba orange juice and sticking the

2487
02:36:37.959 --> 02:36:41.360
straw. That sounds fun. I
want to do that. Yeah, that

2488
02:36:41.440 --> 02:36:48.680
sounds good. But with booze okay
yeah, zero G shots yeah, yeah,

2489
02:36:50.000 --> 02:36:56.440
gello shots Okay, Yeah, I
like it. It'd be fun.

2490
02:36:56.079 --> 02:36:58.879
Should we should get on the true? Can you fly us? Yeah?

2491
02:37:00.000 --> 02:37:03.479
Absolutely, just fly us up to
get some microgravity? Excellent. I didn't

2492
02:37:03.520 --> 02:37:05.799
realize that they actually did it.
Multiple times. I thought it was like

2493
02:37:05.840 --> 02:37:09.639
a one shot yeah, and then
that's it. Yeah. I would they

2494
02:37:09.719 --> 02:37:13.280
just sit there and do it.
Just sounds crazy. That's probably everywhere.

2495
02:37:13.479 --> 02:37:18.120
That's probably what I would do.
Yeah, God, that's insane to think

2496
02:37:18.159 --> 02:37:22.239
that they shot all that stuff.
Yeah, to shoot to shoot in like

2497
02:37:22.319 --> 02:37:26.719
twenty second increments. Yeah, amazing. Yeah, it was good. They

2498
02:37:26.760 --> 02:37:33.719
haven't seen that since since it was
in the theater. Hold up, Jacob

2499
02:37:33.799 --> 02:37:37.120
and Arizona writes in and says,
I just saw an article about PlayStation VR

2500
02:37:37.239 --> 02:37:41.520
reintroducing demo discs for VR with this
fit under Demo Derby or ver Rodeo,

2501
02:37:43.600 --> 02:37:48.840
I mean potentially both crossover episode.
Big questions we're gonna have to ask ourselves

2502
02:37:48.920 --> 02:37:52.280
in the coming months. We'll see. I don't know what that seems really

2503
02:37:52.360 --> 02:37:54.760
weird. Yeah, I don't know
why they wouldn't just have you download demos,

2504
02:37:56.079 --> 02:37:58.079
Like once you're at the highest possible
tech of VR, safe assumpthing that

2505
02:37:58.120 --> 02:38:03.479
you've probably got some probably get some
internet. Here's a demo DISCA. I

2506
02:38:03.520 --> 02:38:05.719
don't know, weird, it's gonna
be weird, like rolling PSVR into that

2507
02:38:05.799 --> 02:38:09.840
thing. They probably just need the
demo discs, if only for retail yeah.

2508
02:38:09.879 --> 02:38:11.799
So it's like they're they're stationing all
those kiosks. Okay, here's the

2509
02:38:11.840 --> 02:38:15.319
disc that goes in this unit,
or maybe there's almost the demos, here's

2510
02:38:15.360 --> 02:38:18.440
one packed in with the headset or
something that there is, Okay, that

2511
02:38:18.600 --> 02:38:22.319
makes sense. I think like the
whole impetus for radio though, is like

2512
02:38:22.360 --> 02:38:26.360
there are so many there's like a
bunch of shitty, half finished things hitting

2513
02:38:26.399 --> 02:38:28.280
steam constantly. You know, you
have to assume the stuff they're gonna do

2514
02:38:28.319 --> 02:38:31.639
for that thing is gonna be a
lot more curated. Yeah. Yeah,

2515
02:38:31.719 --> 02:38:35.600
and and well I don't know,
man, you saw Inner kung Fu like

2516
02:38:35.719 --> 02:38:39.159
that's right? No, yeah,
appear on the PlayStation four? All bets,

2517
02:38:39.280 --> 02:38:43.959
right, I can't. Yeah?
Uh we should we find out who

2518
02:38:45.079 --> 02:38:48.360
made that happen on the phone Inner
kung Fu, the inter kung Fu game.

2519
02:38:48.440 --> 02:38:52.319
Finally the true story can be told. Uh. Kyle from Arizona says,

2520
02:38:52.399 --> 02:38:56.799
get a three sixty camera and do
stupid shit with it. Any thoughts.

2521
02:38:56.719 --> 02:39:01.399
I believe game Spot ordered some three
sixty cameras. Maybe we did.

2522
02:39:01.600 --> 02:39:05.319
Yeah, we were looking into that
recently. Things are not cheap, They're

2523
02:39:05.399 --> 02:39:11.079
not or I saw one that was
actually not super expensive. Varies it was

2524
02:39:11.120 --> 02:39:16.280
it a GoPro rig that we were
looking at. So there are a bunch

2525
02:39:16.280 --> 02:39:20.879
of like consumer level products. This
is all like I've just been or you

2526
02:39:20.959 --> 02:39:24.440
guys rent rented one or tested it
out, I don't know whatever. There's

2527
02:39:24.479 --> 02:39:30.440
one that's like cheap and bad.
Uh. And then there's one where it's

2528
02:39:30.520 --> 02:39:33.959
just like a three D printed cube
that you strap in a bunch of go

2529
02:39:35.120 --> 02:39:39.719
pros too. Uh. And that's
like thousands of dollars because you have to

2530
02:39:39.799 --> 02:39:45.440
buy all the go pros to rye. It seems like a lot of work.

2531
02:39:45.680 --> 02:39:48.559
Yeah. Uh, I don't know
that one of them live streams,

2532
02:39:48.680 --> 02:39:56.959
but it streams from itself, so
to like integrated into our system, we

2533
02:39:56.000 --> 02:40:00.440
would have to like stream it to
a PC and then capture that he see

2534
02:40:00.559 --> 02:40:03.920
and then and then you would lose
the three sixtiness of it the first place.

2535
02:40:03.040 --> 02:40:07.520
So yeah, I yes, we
need to get to a point where

2536
02:40:07.600 --> 02:40:11.159
we have one of those things in
here just so we can just set it

2537
02:40:11.239 --> 02:40:13.840
on the couch and just put out
episodes of shows of like It's you on

2538
02:40:13.959 --> 02:40:16.799
the Couch. I think that'd be
real stupid. I think that would be

2539
02:40:16.879 --> 02:40:20.600
real stupid. Yeah, yeah,
maybe maybe if if games buckets winning.

2540
02:40:20.680 --> 02:40:24.319
Make a mess around with it and
see if it's steal it right. I'm

2541
02:40:24.360 --> 02:40:26.920
not the keeper, but go for
it. Thanks all right, thanks for

2542
02:40:26.680 --> 02:40:31.280
permission giving us permission? Awesome,
I gave you will not bothered, be

2543
02:40:31.360 --> 02:40:35.000
bothered? Who is that? Who? That's a really good question I heard

2544
02:40:35.000 --> 02:40:37.479
we should blame him? I don't
know if that's what I was told.

2545
02:40:39.920 --> 02:40:45.120
Carlo writes in from Sacramento. This
is a question mostly for Jeff uh Greeks

2546
02:40:45.559 --> 02:40:50.040
Sacramento. What's up with the parental
Advisory logo? Nowadays? Most mainstream hip

2547
02:40:50.079 --> 02:40:52.719
hop carries the stamp because the lyrics
include swear words and suggestive themes, and

2548
02:40:52.959 --> 02:40:56.600
it's marketed to the customers of Walmart
and Target. In that case, the

2549
02:40:56.639 --> 02:41:01.000
purpose is being fulfilled. But when
checking out random band camp albums from around

2550
02:41:01.079 --> 02:41:05.239
NorCal, I noticed that some rappers
who are just independently uploading their mixtapes have

2551
02:41:05.399 --> 02:41:09.879
the stamp as well. It's safe
to assume that these folks are not signed

2552
02:41:09.920 --> 02:41:13.959
to a major nor India label,
yet they include the logo on their artwork.

2553
02:41:13.719 --> 02:41:16.000
Those people who are going to listen
to it anyways, No, it's

2554
02:41:16.040 --> 02:41:20.680
probably going to be explicit, so
it seems redundant to have the logo legitimacy.

2555
02:41:22.079 --> 02:41:26.840
Yeah, yeah, that's that is
why when I put out I used

2556
02:41:26.879 --> 02:41:31.559
that go on something when we put
it out, because it's just like he's

2557
02:41:31.600 --> 02:41:33.760
like, well, there's cursing in
here. Obviously there is, Like so

2558
02:41:33.879 --> 02:41:37.559
you know, oh great there is
cris Yeah exactly. Yes. But also

2559
02:41:37.760 --> 02:41:39.680
like you look at it and go
like, oh, that's like you know

2560
02:41:39.840 --> 02:41:43.600
that's like what that's what a professional
album would have. Yeah. So like

2561
02:41:43.639 --> 02:41:46.600
when you're some dude fucking designing the
album for your the rap album you recorded

2562
02:41:48.079 --> 02:41:50.479
bathroom, you're like, yeah,
this is fucking some real shit. Like

2563
02:41:50.520 --> 02:41:52.600
we didn't go to pen and Pixel, but you know we wouldn't got an

2564
02:41:52.600 --> 02:41:56.280
album cover like you know, yeah, put the explicit lyrics thing on there.

2565
02:41:56.360 --> 02:42:01.399
Yeah yeah exactly, just about say
yes oh yeah yeah. He says,

2566
02:42:01.440 --> 02:42:03.600
I even listened to a rapper single
that didn't have any explicit content yet

2567
02:42:03.639 --> 02:42:07.159
still have the logo. Yeah.
Yeah, It's just something you gotta have.

2568
02:42:09.239 --> 02:42:11.639
It's one of the boxes you have
to check. Uh, let's see,

2569
02:42:13.360 --> 02:42:20.559
how about two more emails? Do
two more emails? Uh? This

2570
02:42:20.680 --> 02:42:22.479
one does also not have a name
on it, but man request to be

2571
02:42:22.479 --> 02:42:26.680
anonymous de facto anonymous email. Just
wondering if any of you guys, especially

2572
02:42:26.760 --> 02:42:31.760
Drew, have ever explored the world
of MRI E reviews on YouTube A little

2573
02:42:31.799 --> 02:42:35.959
bit. Yeah, but I prefer
to do my own of course. Yes,

2574
02:42:35.239 --> 02:42:39.159
expect no less. These guys unpack
rations ranging from current ones to ones

2575
02:42:39.200 --> 02:42:43.719
from the nineties, eighties, Vietnam, and even the Second World War.

2576
02:42:43.319 --> 02:42:46.440
Wow. They then proceed to eat
as much of the food as they can

2577
02:42:46.559 --> 02:42:50.719
that hasn't gone bad, and even
try some of the rancid food. What

2578
02:42:50.120 --> 02:42:54.319
The videos are actually really insightful.
It's cool to see how the rations change

2579
02:42:54.319 --> 02:42:58.719
over time, like including cigarettes up
until the seventies when they were removed.

2580
02:43:00.120 --> 02:43:03.639
My favorite, Steve nineteen eighty nine's
videos are weirdly calming in a way the

2581
02:43:03.719 --> 02:43:09.000
AMR memory reviews. One time,
while doing ascid at my brother's house,

2582
02:43:09.120 --> 02:43:11.760
we put his videos on and ended
up watching hours of him eat various out

2583
02:43:11.799 --> 02:43:16.000
of date food, including beef hash
that was over forty years old time.

2584
02:43:16.000 --> 02:43:20.639
Wow. Yeah, so all right, you got to spend that time somehow.

2585
02:43:20.719 --> 02:43:24.600
There's your there's your weekly dumb thing
on YouTube update. Uh for someone

2586
02:43:24.639 --> 02:43:28.760
who has been tasked with gathering some
dumb stuff on YouTube in the near future.

2587
02:43:28.559 --> 02:43:33.479
I feel like these emails are oh
yeah special useful to me on four

2588
02:43:33.559 --> 02:43:37.559
or four Yeah, that bear panel
guys, you guys, you've done it.

2589
02:43:37.840 --> 02:43:41.600
Yeah, what was your thing?
All anime? I don't know if

2590
02:43:41.639 --> 02:43:46.000
I can. And then the fat
Seal line where the beat drops as it

2591
02:43:46.079 --> 02:43:48.079
zooms in all like the big Seal. It's a good line. That's a

2592
02:43:48.079 --> 02:43:50.559
good line. Yeah, that's not
bad. What did you do? Uh

2593
02:43:50.879 --> 02:43:54.000
grocery halls? Right? Okay,
yeah, I mean that's you know,

2594
02:43:54.079 --> 02:43:56.920
that's that's mainstream culture at this point. Yeah, so I have to go

2595
02:43:56.959 --> 02:44:01.200
a lot deeper than that. I
did North Korea videos. Okay, all

2596
02:44:01.280 --> 02:44:05.399
right, that's good North North Korean
music. I think it was. I

2597
02:44:05.479 --> 02:44:09.239
managed to find through There are a
lot of like like, there are a

2598
02:44:09.280 --> 02:44:13.399
lot of like bad like muckbong videos
on YouTube, like eating yeah now that

2599
02:44:13.479 --> 02:44:16.879
like Twitch has a social eating category
and stuff like it seems like at some

2600
02:44:16.959 --> 02:44:20.360
point this thing that is already seems
like it's kind of out of date,

2601
02:44:20.159 --> 02:44:22.680
like people are trying to like bring
it to the US or something, and

2602
02:44:22.799 --> 02:44:30.280
now it seems like there's just this
abundance of people running eating channels and there's

2603
02:44:30.280 --> 02:44:33.639
an Instagram account of a woman who
just smashes her face onto bread. She

2604
02:44:33.799 --> 02:44:37.799
lays the bread on the table and
rolls her face. Okay, and she

2605
02:44:37.920 --> 02:44:39.520
has like millions of followers. All
right now, I'll look that up after

2606
02:44:39.600 --> 02:44:43.399
this and see why. Yeah,
yeah, I don't know. Like there

2607
02:44:43.440 --> 02:44:50.200
are there are eating channels that I
would point you towards for your thing if

2608
02:44:50.239 --> 02:44:52.200
you were looking, if you were
like totally out of ideas, but like

2609
02:44:52.399 --> 02:44:56.159
at some point the people in them, like you would only show them because

2610
02:44:56.239 --> 02:45:00.479
you are being mean to the people
in the videos. And panel is not

2611
02:45:00.559 --> 02:45:03.319
about that. That panel is meant
to be uplifting. It is not just

2612
02:45:03.440 --> 02:45:07.840
like, look at these look at
look at these people? Yes, how

2613
02:45:07.920 --> 02:45:11.120
are they? What is going on
here? How could you be that dumb?

2614
02:45:13.360 --> 02:45:16.600
I probably steer in a different direction
on this. You get a week

2615
02:45:16.639 --> 02:45:20.959
to figure it out. No fucking
where did you get that Dota anime video?

2616
02:45:22.000 --> 02:45:26.399
Holy shit? I just remember that
you tweeted that on me over the

2617
02:45:26.440 --> 02:45:28.120
weekend. Where the fuck did that
come from? I was on YouTube?

2618
02:45:28.319 --> 02:45:33.079
Wow, man, that thing is
like a year ago or something like that.

2619
02:45:33.200 --> 02:45:37.079
Immediately thought of you, guys,
Wow, I could I only made

2620
02:45:37.120 --> 02:45:39.959
it about halfway through I couldn't take
anymore. It was very intense. I'll

2621
02:45:39.959 --> 02:45:43.079
put a link to that thing show
notes. The thing is serious. You

2622
02:45:43.079 --> 02:45:46.000
should all watch it. No,
no, fine, Yeah, it was

2623
02:45:46.040 --> 02:45:52.879
emraging like cultures. It was bringing
doa anime together. I don't care about

2624
02:45:52.920 --> 02:45:56.520
one of those things. But you
could. No, I couldn't, I

2625
02:45:56.680 --> 02:46:01.440
will never, I cannot. How
much more quality time would you enjoy with

2626
02:46:01.479 --> 02:46:05.079
your significant if I don't need it, start, let's just get into league

2627

2630
02:46:16.639 --> 02:46:20.600
email Alex and Melbourne High Podcast.

2631
02:46:20.639 --> 02:46:26.559
Tokyo Olympic Games? Will any of

2632
02:46:26.680 --> 02:46:30.680
coach? Alternatively? Which games would
make up a video game Olympics? The

2633
02:46:30.760 --> 02:46:35.000
ultimate gathering of v sports, Track
and field? Okay, California Games,

2634
02:46:35.120 --> 02:46:39.280
Okay, World Games. It's got
the caber toss in it. Yeah,

2635
02:46:39.920 --> 02:46:41.440
it's all about the caber toss.
Yeah. I also like the hacky sack.

2636
02:46:41.719 --> 02:46:48.239
Oh yeah, and California Californias tnc
Surf designers. That's water rate overlap

2637
02:46:48.360 --> 02:46:52.239
with much overlap with California games.
It's Almo also also tnc Surf is really

2638
02:46:52.399 --> 02:46:56.879
like more about finishing levels and moving
forward. The Superdisison is not really much

2639
02:46:56.879 --> 02:47:01.840
of a sports game, that's fair. What other games like involve physical motion

2640
02:47:01.000 --> 02:47:07.360
like Tycho drum arcades, flipping the
table. They have that in town.

2641
02:47:07.399 --> 02:47:13.000
Actually they do here in Japan town. Oh, let's go, let's do

2642
02:47:13.079 --> 02:47:20.719
it anything with the Sega activator.
Okay, we we we fit whatever something

2643
02:47:20.799 --> 02:47:28.719
with that spot Stuffgo why can't we
have giant the giant mech battles They're they're

2644
02:47:28.760 --> 02:47:31.840
doing that like this is this is
something that's happening, Like there was a

2645
02:47:33.200 --> 02:47:37.360
there's a company actually here in town
well over in Oakland that's building a giant

2646
02:47:37.479 --> 02:47:43.879
mech and challenged another company in Japan
who also built a giant is this is

2647
02:47:43.559 --> 02:47:46.959
SRL So the name of the company, the crew that's doing stuff, you

2648
02:47:48.000 --> 02:47:50.520
know, I don't recall be doing
weird shit for a long time, bolting

2649
02:47:50.559 --> 02:47:54.159
cars together and blowing them up and
very well could be actually it's not ringing

2650
02:47:54.159 --> 02:47:58.680
a bell. But yeah, as
they're building this, like three blocks from

2651
02:47:58.719 --> 02:48:01.319
I think I know what you're talking
about, the American steel building or whatever,

2652
02:48:01.360 --> 02:48:03.520
and they're basically doing robot jocks.
Yes, exactly, like they're trying

2653
02:48:03.559 --> 02:48:07.239
to build like a weird lead.
I mean that's pretty much the Olympics of

2654
02:48:07.399 --> 02:48:09.280
the future. I think they've they've
got like a kickstarter and they brought a

2655
02:48:09.319 --> 02:48:13.440
bunch of people on board that are
gonna help design this thing and painted all

2656
02:48:13.559 --> 02:48:18.200
cool and shits, and yeah,
I'm super excited for it. I think

2657
02:48:18.239 --> 02:48:22.760
the American flag is featured prominently in
the Oakland design, more than likely with

2658
02:48:22.920 --> 02:48:26.959
explosions in the background. Yeah,
totally, totally. I would love to

2659
02:48:28.000 --> 02:48:30.799
see that events. Yeah, yeah, robot jocks for kis all right,

2660
02:48:31.239 --> 02:48:35.360
punchy robots. I mean, why
would we make robots if not to punch

2661
02:48:35.399 --> 02:48:39.399
each other? No reason at all. It goes without saying, all right,

2662
