00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:06,280
Hello, and welcome to side Quest. This is our weekly video game show

2
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:11,119
here at Geek. First recording so
many episodes is our third side Quest episode,

3
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:15,759
recording in one night, it's probably
a record, but as Dexter would

4
00:00:15,759 --> 00:00:19,280
say, tonight's the night I am
joined by the clownference of outlaws. Travis

5
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,839
and I have the mentor Taylor with
me here. We've been going for a

6
00:00:22,879 --> 00:00:25,440
while, so we're gonna get right
into it. Taylor, You be self

7
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,920
Forward, mister you Be Soft,
I called you series, but you're you're

8
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:33,399
the mister of many's. What did
you think of this year's You Be solf

9
00:00:33,439 --> 00:00:38,039
Forward? Oh? I liked it. I thought it was a quick cut.

10
00:00:38,079 --> 00:00:42,719
It was dishing out lots of stuff
and it kind of goes over my

11
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:45,600
head as I was watching this,
because I felt like, man, all

12
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,560
these different titles and it just kind
of it's like, wow, these are

13
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,880
all you Be Soft? Because I
felt like it's actually pretty diverse when you

14
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,000
think about it, because we go
through Star Wars, Avatar and a couple

15
00:00:56,039 --> 00:00:59,000
other things to like Home Bones,
Rainbow six, Calling Bones. Yeah,

16
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,520
there's a whole decent catalog of different
games. And you know, people hate

17
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,200
on You Be Soft because you know, you don't technically own your games or

18
00:01:06,239 --> 00:01:10,000
whatever, and there's there's reasons to
be pissed. But uh yeah, the

19
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,719
one reason people I think it was
I think it was a pretty good show,

20
00:01:14,719 --> 00:01:17,439
though I was quite happy with with
a lot of what I was seeing.

21
00:01:17,519 --> 00:01:26,239
So number one to five, I'm
gonna go. I'm gonna go three

22
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:30,879
point seventy five out of five.
Holy wow, kinder Xbox, Travis Nell,

23
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,920
what do you got here? Yeah? I actually thought this was a

24
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,640
pretty good one because to me,
we have many years the Ubisoft show when

25
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,359
we did E three has always been
in the bottom. It's overstand's welcome,

26
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:47,280
It's had producers talk about the Assassin
screaming with the no idea about Assassin screen.

27
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,799
They got celebrities, there's just dance
things. This was like an hour

28
00:01:51,159 --> 00:01:53,959
four. I liked it because it
felt like it was bringing back those E

29
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,760
three nostalgia vibes. It's one on
stage, an orchestra crowd getting excited.

30
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,840
I they had Star Wars at the
beginning, Assassin's create the end. That's

31
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:07,640
a perfect placement other than Prince of
Persia because they're twenty fifth or thirty fifth

32
00:02:07,719 --> 00:02:10,719
year anniversary. That got a showcase
of multiple games. Other than that all

33
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:14,439
these updates, which I was with
Taylor, I was like, man,

34
00:02:14,479 --> 00:02:17,639
they do like there's so many games
that usoft does produce that we don't even

35
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,240
talk about. But I feel most
the updates, especially there's like this block

36
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,960
in the middle where it's just a
montage of update, update, Update.

37
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:29,080
I thought that was the way because
we've seen so many years where a dev

38
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,919
comes out, and not that that's
a bad thing, but it's just when

39
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:35,319
you're trying to do and show that
semi entertainment as well, you want to

40
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,520
save those more for the interviews or
day of the days and stuff like.

41
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,439
There's different ways for that, especially
because you want to I feel like that

42
00:02:42,479 --> 00:02:45,479
those are better because people that are
interested in your game seek you out versus

43
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,879
your kind of just throwing all this
info that they really don't care about or

44
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,080
they don't want to hear right now. So I thought that was good.

45
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:57,199
We've got a few musical performances,
but no, I thought it was good.

46
00:02:57,199 --> 00:02:59,400
I'm with you. I think we
like a three point five four.

47
00:02:59,439 --> 00:03:02,560
To me, it seems like there
has to be a certain really really goodness

48
00:03:02,599 --> 00:03:07,879
to this. But this to me
is like a like a above average passable,

49
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,400
Like I don't know, like that
even sounds bad, I would still

50
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,719
say it's good. That's what i'd
say. So maybe four is like a

51
00:03:12,759 --> 00:03:15,639
great, so I'd say this was
a good conference. I think they hit

52
00:03:15,719 --> 00:03:19,159
well on Assassin's Creed, even though
I'm not interested in it, and I

53
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:22,000
think they hit very well. I
think they actually knocked at the park with

54
00:03:22,039 --> 00:03:23,439
Star Wars because they just feel like
the reception is a lot better. And

55
00:03:23,479 --> 00:03:27,400
I'm we're gonna talk about more,
but I'm very curious how that game is

56
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,080
gonna go for them, because I
think if it hits right, that could

57
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,919
be a really big win for Ubisoft
and people might look at them in a

58
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:37,960
different way because it's not just oh, Assassin's Greed over and this over.

59
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,280
So No, I think that they
delivered well and like I said, our

60
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:45,680
four, that's like, that's great, that's exactly all these people Summer's games

61
00:03:45,719 --> 00:03:47,000
fast other ones, like even State
of Play. It's like you didn't even

62
00:03:47,039 --> 00:03:51,120
need to do one. Uh.
They did the right amount of time show

63
00:03:51,159 --> 00:03:53,879
what they needed to, and I
think they did a good job because you

64
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,680
got to you got to preview at
least those two big ones, so you

65
00:03:55,719 --> 00:03:59,159
could have just done those two and
then be fine, but I think they

66
00:03:59,159 --> 00:04:02,759
wanted to showcase a few things,
so uh nope. I was was good

67
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:08,800
overall, so nice. Yeah,
I think I'm lower on this just there

68
00:04:08,879 --> 00:04:13,639
wasn't really much hyped about this for
me, and like I didn't gain any

69
00:04:13,719 --> 00:04:16,639
new info here really, Like you
know, they are new showings for Star

70
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,879
Wars. I learned some stuff about
those games, but like there wasn't any

71
00:04:18,879 --> 00:04:23,480
surprises. I guess that's more of
the word I'm looking for, and I'd

72
00:04:23,519 --> 00:04:25,959
like to have some of those.
Sometimes I didn't really expect them, but

73
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,160
I don't know. Like, to
me, this all, I'll throw two

74
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,040
point five on it. You know, it's good enough, got the job

75
00:04:30,079 --> 00:04:32,560
done. It was good for Pace
and wise in terms of what they've done

76
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:38,879
before. But yeah, nothing really
particularly blew me away, But I'm not

77
00:04:38,879 --> 00:04:43,759
offended by it. It's fine.
The first game here, Star Wars Outlaws,

78
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,319
of course, coming out at the
end of August. They showed a

79
00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:48,519
lot. I don't even know where
to start. They showed off space battles,

80
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,759
they showed off some arcade games and
just messing around. They showed some

81
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,639
cities. I think to me,
they showed off. One of my big

82
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,560
questions has been, Okay, they've
talked about all these different planets. This

83
00:04:58,639 --> 00:05:01,399
game is open world, but like
how open world is it if you have

84
00:05:01,439 --> 00:05:04,560
all these different areas, And I
think they showed how that's going to go

85
00:05:04,639 --> 00:05:08,800
in terms of like transitions between screens, and I thought that was really cool.

86
00:05:08,879 --> 00:05:13,160
So yeah, I don't know what
was the highlight for you guys.

87
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,160
I don't know who wants to go
first here, but what was just maybe

88
00:05:15,199 --> 00:05:19,920
your highlight for Star Wars at laws
what surprised your blew you away? Go

89
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:27,680
ahead, dude. I can't remember
if they revealed this in the previous like

90
00:05:27,959 --> 00:05:32,959
gameplay, but the space battles caught
me off guard. When she was going

91
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,800
up into the system and then she
chose to just do this this mission here.

92
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,920
I was like, man, this
feels like Starfield all of a sudden.

93
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,879
Then she's helping out the ship and
like taking out the enemy fighters that

94
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,720
are around it. I really really
like that. That was a highlight,

95
00:05:46,759 --> 00:05:50,920
and I just I'm I'm so flabbergasted. I get it's it's tied in a

96
00:05:50,959 --> 00:05:54,759
little bit with a cinematic feature,
but for the most part, I think

97
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,839
it's a very seamless transition. I
love going to the planet, going through

98
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,560
the clouds, through the atmosphere,
and then coming in and just and then

99
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,120
your ship just docks, And I
think that that's really really, really fantastic.

100
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,120
I like, you can Starfield do
that. Why do I got to

101
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,600
go to the main menu every time
and select the planet? You know,

102
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:13,319
how did you we saw figure it
out and then what's going on here?

103
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,160
That was questionable? So yeah,
I think that's great. Other things too

104
00:06:17,199 --> 00:06:21,000
that I really like is the factions
that you're dealing with as well, and

105
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:27,199
how you can do different things to
increase your popularity or decrease your popularity with

106
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,920
those factions. That's neat We mentioned
you mentioned earlier Travis this week the Wanted

107
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,879
level. That's a factor too with
the Empire, which is very sweet.

108
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:38,000
So there's so many cool little things
that I'm really really driving with. My

109
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,160
only con with this game is,
and you mentioned this Travis before, Like,

110
00:06:42,319 --> 00:06:45,079
I got nothing wrong with being a
human, but I'd really like to

111
00:06:45,079 --> 00:06:46,639
be an alien. That'd be a
lot of fun, especially in this world

112
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,759
with the crime syndicates. I feel
like an alien would be like perfect for

113
00:06:50,879 --> 00:06:54,480
this kind of setting because you're dealing
with that. I mean, you got

114
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,839
the week way in there, you're
with the Hot Cartel and a whole bunch

115
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:03,240
of other so I think that's just
kind of a miss. But everything that

116
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,560
I've seen with Zip Brown your speeder
bike is fun. The combat's cool,

117
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:13,759
how you're sneaking around and basically you're
trying to track down different characters to increase

118
00:07:13,879 --> 00:07:17,600
your skills that you can be better
whatnot. And you're pulling off the greatest

119
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,120
Star Wars heist of all time,
which I guess we'll see what that's all

120
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:25,839
about. But everything I saw on
this because I perordered the game and you

121
00:07:25,839 --> 00:07:28,759
guys were talking about how it would
be available and you'd be soft plus,

122
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:30,920
and so I thought, okay,
well I'm gonna go count my preorer.

123
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,120
But legitimately, after seeing this,
I thought, I kind of don't know

124
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,439
if I want you. I'd like
to own this game, and i'd like

125
00:07:38,519 --> 00:07:42,000
to send that message that hey,
I feel like this is justified and I

126
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:46,040
want you to keep doing more.
Now. I'm not gonna drop the like

127
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,959
one hundred and fifty bucks whatever for
the Collector's edition, because that's just fucking

128
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:53,639
outrageous, but I think i'd be
inclined. If it's only a twenty dollars

129
00:07:53,639 --> 00:07:56,920
difference between the subscription that you got, you you did the math, Travis,

130
00:07:56,959 --> 00:08:03,519
and then maybe thirty well for you
to buy Assassin's Creed and this that's

131
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,319
a yeah, that's that's that's the
difference here. You got the service for

132
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:07,839
a year. I think it was, yeah, for a year, that's

133
00:08:07,839 --> 00:08:13,639
what I was saying, right,
Yeah, So I gotta think about it.

134
00:08:13,639 --> 00:08:16,959
I gotta think about it. One
well, one thing I based on

135
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,040
the wording here, and I don't
know if they confirm this, but to

136
00:08:18,079 --> 00:08:22,480
me, it seemed like they're offering
those uh you know stars at Wilson we're

137
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,600
talking about Asassin's Creed shadows as well
as yeah you'd be soft uh plus.

138
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,279
But it seems like maybe those are
limited time, like maybe they'll be in

139
00:08:31,319 --> 00:08:35,919
there for a month and then they're
gonna like remove them. Oh really,

140
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,120
I don't know, that's the word. When I was reading the wording,

141
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:41,720
that's what it seemed like was the
case to me, which would be weird.

142
00:08:41,399 --> 00:08:45,480
But also it seems like you be
self sort of thing to do.

143
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,120
So I don't know, keep an
eye on that, like, and I

144
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,840
think in your case Taylor like,
this seems like maybe a game. I

145
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,159
mean, Assassin's Screed. You probably
want that physical I need it thing on

146
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,440
your shelf. And it was like, maybe these games make sense for you

147
00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,600
to buy because that way you can
play the DLC and when they can come

148
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,279
out and you have access to them
forever because you're not normally a subscriber to

149
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,399
you be soft like you own so
many of these games already. It's nine,

150
00:09:07,519 --> 00:09:09,000
yeah, nineteen a month, I
think, right, and I own

151
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:13,879
most of their games. The only
reason I've thought about trying it is because

152
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:18,159
Avatar hasn't gotten sale yet because Cameron
wants money, so I haven't picked that

153
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,639
up. And is that in the
service right now? It's on the service?

154
00:09:22,799 --> 00:09:26,320
Yeah, so there's that Skull and
Bones I'd like to play. Have

155
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,080
they been doing this? Have they
been putting their games in their services day

156
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:33,320
one for a while now? I
know that till today because when the way

157
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,559
this ended, before they had everyone's
stage, it was like a mini teaser

158
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,960
for you play or you'd be plussed. And when they were showing day when

159
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,240
I was like okay, And that's
when I started to look at the website

160
00:09:41,279 --> 00:09:46,000
and Assassin's Creed had that Star Wars
had that I didn't know if it is

161
00:09:46,039 --> 00:09:48,399
like the time the exclusive thing where
it's like, oh, Outlaws only on

162
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:52,159
here for a month, so that
could change something. But at the same

163
00:09:52,159 --> 00:09:56,399
time, I wonder like, would
your save data still change like go over

164
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,240
imagined, like would it be like
it should because like Skull and Bone is

165
00:10:00,279 --> 00:10:01,720
like, here's a free trial and
you don't have to have you be soft

166
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,159
plus. And then to me,
if I had like a month of Outlaws

167
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,440
and I really liked it and it
was worth buying, then it's like,

168
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:11,000
okay at that point, then I'd
throw the money down and then just keep

169
00:10:11,039 --> 00:10:11,679
it. But at the same point, after a month, I think I'd

170
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,840
be able to decide, uh,
like I've played enough of this game and

171
00:10:15,879 --> 00:10:18,320
when it comes back, I'll do
that. So and even then with the

172
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,320
time, I think, both with
Assassin's Creed and this, you're getting them

173
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,679
like two to three days early,
which always helps me always like having games

174
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,120
early for the reviews. So but
yeah, that's I did not know about

175
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:33,000
this, and that's like terrible marketing
for people that are in this ecosystem to

176
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,679
just be hearing about the dape and
that's a good thing. That's today where

177
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,240
you do it right, is a
day like today where most eyes are on

178
00:10:39,279 --> 00:10:41,919
it. But the fact that we're
still like is the first time we've heard

179
00:10:41,039 --> 00:10:48,000
new releases being day one on Ubi
Plus is very very odd. So yeah,

180
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,519
yeah, no, I mean because
of that, like I want to

181
00:10:50,519 --> 00:10:52,639
play this game now. I was
very much on the fence just because of

182
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,480
the price of it, even though
it's looked good. But of course my

183
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,559
Star Wars hypes at an all time
low. But I think this game looks

184
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,679
great, like the I love the
bar games and like the arcade games that

185
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,120
you do, like that kind of
stuff is fun. And think the density

186
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,000
of the cities looks cool. Visually, I think it looks great. I

187
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,120
mentioned the transitions. I think that's
cool, Like they almost took like the

188
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,799
from the movies, like the almost
like Movie Maker. Yeah, when you're

189
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,840
going to a new area, it's
like they make it seamlessly, like okay,

190
00:11:18,879 --> 00:11:20,320
now you're going on this little travel
sequence. So rather than it being

191
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,320
like a bland loading screen because of
the loading capability of these new consoles,

192
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,720
it seems like and I don't know
if this is on like PS four or

193
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:31,759
Xbox one, but if it isn't
like it seems like that stuff's really seamless,

194
00:11:31,759 --> 00:11:35,120
and I think that's a really cool
creative idea. It's got the classic

195
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,919
you'bist off stuff of like you you
can sneak around or you can go in

196
00:11:37,039 --> 00:11:41,080
guns a blazing, and like,
you know, that's always gonna be fun.

197
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,960
Another thing I really thought was cool
about this is, uh, the

198
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:50,000
way you are leveling up certain abilities, And this seems like a big narrative

199
00:11:50,039 --> 00:11:52,639
string of why you're playing this game
and what you're doing is like going around

200
00:11:52,639 --> 00:11:56,759
and finding these experts who maybe there's
like a guns expert or like a ship

201
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:01,919
expert or something. So you're going
to locate these across the galaxy and you

202
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:05,600
find them and then they help you
level up skills. And that's like just

203
00:12:05,639 --> 00:12:07,679
a really smart way rather than just
like this boring ass skill tree. Instead,

204
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:13,360
you're having to go explore find in
a world, right like you would

205
00:12:13,399 --> 00:12:16,559
learn a skill from somebody immersive And
I'm sure like once you go to the

206
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,279
one of those guys who're can be
like here, go do this fetch quest

207
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,480
and then you'll learn the skill.
But like, I don't know, I

208
00:12:20,519 --> 00:12:24,159
think that's like a really well integrated
way to do it. And I think

209
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,600
it's like, it seems cool of
you have this almost chart at the beginning

210
00:12:26,639 --> 00:12:30,639
of the game that's like, here's
these different experts, what kind of character

211
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:31,360
do you want to be, what
skills do you want to focus on?

212
00:12:31,639 --> 00:12:35,720
Go try and find this person.
I'm sure there's gonna be some like you

213
00:12:35,759 --> 00:12:39,480
know, critical path or like some
intended like order of way you're going to

214
00:12:39,519 --> 00:12:41,279
do these things, But to me, that seems like a very cool open

215
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:45,840
way to do it and fit to
like the outlaw setting of going around these

216
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,480
different places. So and like,
yeah, the GTA element of it,

217
00:12:48,519 --> 00:12:52,000
like the Empire coming after you a
different level way, Yeah, seems super

218
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,320
cool. I don't like space battles. I think they're boring and that's not

219
00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,399
my vibe. So I don't like
that element of it, but it seems

220
00:13:00,399 --> 00:13:03,000
like the kind of game where I
can kind of skip that stuff if I

221
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,960
want and just focus on the ground. It's definitely go around in my speeder,

222
00:13:07,039 --> 00:13:09,559
which I can upgrade. So yeah, I was really impressed by this.

223
00:13:09,639 --> 00:13:13,000
And yeah, like I even though
I was impressed, I was like,

224
00:13:13,039 --> 00:13:15,759
yeah, am I gonna drop ninety
bucks on it? No, But

225
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,919
I will definitely get a month of
Ubi self plus to pick this one up.

226
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:24,360
So I think that was a very
successful showing from them, and yeah,

227
00:13:24,399 --> 00:13:26,480
shows them for you know, getting
me excited for Star Wars, which

228
00:13:26,519 --> 00:13:30,759
is not happened in a long time. Mm hmm. Yeah. No.

229
00:13:30,879 --> 00:13:35,039
I think what's weird for me is
it does not feel as big as like,

230
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,440
of course, like a Witcher or
Grand Theft Auto. But then there's

231
00:13:37,519 --> 00:13:41,919
things about that don't feel like a
Ubisoft kind of open world game. It

232
00:13:41,919 --> 00:13:46,559
feels like there is. It feels
almost more and again not even as big

233
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,559
as a Bethesda game, but it
feels and I get the comparisons. I

234
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:52,759
think they're completely right. It does
feel like a Starfield B where the dog

235
00:13:52,799 --> 00:13:56,840
fighting looks similar the landing, you
know, that's funny. But I think

236
00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,159
it's almost things that we talked about
before Starfield coming when there's one hundreds of

237
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:01,679
plants and we're like, oh,
would be better to pick five or something

238
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,080
like that, and that's what this
game is doing right where it's like these

239
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,519
are three five, these are what
you can explore, and this is where

240
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,639
it's like truly open world. So
it's like, okay, So it kind

241
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:15,200
of feels like a you know,
a multiverse version of start Field, but

242
00:14:15,759 --> 00:14:18,559
with Star Wars Skin there's been lots
of because embargoes up that there's lots of

243
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,759
people to have had their hands on
it. And one of the big things

244
00:14:20,799 --> 00:14:24,000
they say, which I took from
the trailer, like but just emphasize that

245
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:28,519
the world just kind of always feels
alive with conversations and things going on.

246
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,960
And I think that's a good thing
you need in Star Wars because it has

247
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:35,679
to feel you got to feel that
kind of magic going on. So I

248
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:39,360
think that's just impressed me that there's
so much stuff I was going to shout

249
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,399
out before you did, so I'm
glad you agree. Is like I love

250
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:46,960
that idea of the different people you
find to give your skills, Like that

251
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:50,480
makes so much sense and like a
story wise and is something way more interesting.

252
00:14:50,799 --> 00:14:54,399
And plus it's like I feel like
it's almost like I'm sure you'd have

253
00:14:54,519 --> 00:14:56,440
to go talk to them all eventually, maybe for some missions, but maybe

254
00:14:56,440 --> 00:15:00,480
there is some where It's like if
you aren't a big fighter, I'm not

255
00:15:00,919 --> 00:15:03,399
gonna go looking to get my gun
up. Like if you're just happy with

256
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:07,519
your one shot gun, I'm gonna
go to these other people or sometimes skill

257
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,200
trees they'll do. I'm not sure
what's gonna be. I hope it's something

258
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,519
where it's like, well, to
keep going forward, you go unlock all

259
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:15,240
those three bars. I would like
it if it's just I don't have to

260
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,919
go talk to the shooter guy for
maybe levels and levels, because I'm just

261
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:20,279
happy with the gun I have.
I don't need to do that, right,

262
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:24,200
So, yeah, like you guys
said, there's options of sneaking or

263
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,799
not sneaking. There's the classic you
know, work with Jaba, don't work

264
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,679
with Jaba. I am curious at
the end of the game how much of

265
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:35,720
those really because it did sound like
a baby's version of like a Red Dead

266
00:15:35,799 --> 00:15:39,240
Redemption, like Outlaw versus Cowboy Hero
and that's thing like do you actually have

267
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:43,039
a bar or is it just certain
things certain missions? But if it just

268
00:15:43,159 --> 00:15:48,440
felt bigger than what I thought it
was going to be. When I initially

269
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,480
heard ubisoftas doing this, at first, it was just Okay, I want

270
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:54,399
to play an outlaw, non Jedi
and Star Wars great, and I'll have

271
00:15:54,519 --> 00:15:56,799
some fun with this. But just
all the little details, even like the

272
00:15:56,879 --> 00:16:00,279
lock picking that reminds me of Starfield
as well, which I've heard that's supposedly

273
00:16:00,399 --> 00:16:04,360
fun. So I think for me, I got questions about the RPG and

274
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,519
choice elements because of course they're like, oh, and you can make friends

275
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:11,399
or enemies with the huts, but
it's like, how far does that really

276
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:12,840
go, you know? Or is
it just kind of and and I don't

277
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:17,320
know, they didn't highlight this in
that trailer, so we'll see here that

278
00:16:17,559 --> 00:16:21,720
showcase. But yeah, it's it
keeps looking better and better, and that's

279
00:16:21,759 --> 00:16:25,240
where I'm just waiting for like the
shoe to drop, like it looks too

280
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,279
good to be true in a sense
of you be saw, like I said,

281
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,120
you be Saft putting out a game
that I think they would get like

282
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,440
lots of acclaim for was not what
I thought was gonna happen. And uh

283
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,399
so, yeah, I'm really really
excited for this when I think this was

284
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,759
a good show because because, like
I said, my time was just filled

285
00:16:40,799 --> 00:16:44,120
with positive stuff. It's the same
thing though, like Mike's and the Discord,

286
00:16:44,159 --> 00:16:47,639
same thing of like it's like because
it's ubisoftick, everyone has this like

287
00:16:48,279 --> 00:16:51,679
trepidation of like is it gonna be
really this good? Like what are they

288
00:16:51,759 --> 00:16:53,519
hiding? Like that's the thing,
like, what is wrong with this game?

289
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,279
Didential transaction? Yeah, but and
maybe there's not. Maybe there's nothing

290
00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,120
wrong, but I think they're doing
all all things. I really hope you

291
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:04,240
can actually play like Subac in the
world. And again we talked about a

292
00:17:04,279 --> 00:17:07,599
little bit, but the GTA threat
level, that's fantastic, even if it's

293
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,640
just a carbon copy of GTA,
but with Star Wars aesthetic, that's that's

294
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:15,519
some good stuff right there. So
I'm yeah, I'm very curious. So

295
00:17:15,559 --> 00:17:18,759
my hype just keeps going up with
each showing. It's the opposite of some

296
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,799
games we've talked about this weekend where
it's like, Okay, stop showing Skate,

297
00:17:22,839 --> 00:17:26,000
stop showing this. This is like
they've been pitch perfect with their showcases

298
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,599
each time and what they've gone out
and gave detail why. So I'm I'm

299
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,400
looking really forward to this game,
and now I'm setting myself up for disappointment

300
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:38,839
though, So we'll see. But
yeah, I can't wait anything else from

301
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:44,119
you, Taylor on this one.
Lando is caught in there briefly. Yeah,

302
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,240
and they know that we know Kira
is obviously, and their Crimson downs

303
00:17:47,279 --> 00:17:48,680
and they were just kind of cool. I don't think you're gonna get mall

304
00:17:48,799 --> 00:17:52,039
or anything, but I mean it's
a little easter egg would be welcomed.

305
00:17:52,599 --> 00:18:03,599
Yeah, yeah, cool. Next
up was Skulling Bones. That was Prince

306
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,400
of Persia. Yeah, there was
kind of three and one here. First

307
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:10,240
it was some DLC coming for Prince
of Person of the Lost Crown. I

308
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,880
just got to say, I think
my least favorite type of showcase is just

309
00:18:14,519 --> 00:18:18,480
twitch streamers screaming. I agree,
I don't like it. He hated that

310
00:18:18,799 --> 00:18:22,440
so much. That's the worst thing
ever. Remember that's why we hated Sea

311
00:18:22,519 --> 00:18:26,119
Thieves originally, because that was the
whole thing, like, well look at

312
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:27,799
this, and it was like always
doing this. They want to show you

313
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:33,359
people having fun playing people play our
games. I swear they're playing them.

314
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,599
Yeah. They did another time too. I can't remember where they did it.

315
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,039
For Avatar. The guy was going
to the tunnel. He's like,

316
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:42,759
oh crap, look how beautiful this
is. Oh my god, I didn't

317
00:18:42,759 --> 00:18:48,720
watch. It's hilarious. Yeah right
twice. I like though, they like

318
00:18:48,839 --> 00:18:52,119
in there because I I didn't watch
this live, so I watched afterwards when

319
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:56,000
they had the time stamps in there, and it's like they had like Avatar

320
00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:00,839
Streamer Reaction, Avatar gameplay, Avatar
Deep Dive, Like they actually broke it

321
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,519
out, so it's like, okay, I can just skip past the super

322
00:19:03,599 --> 00:19:07,839
Tree one, but they really broke
it down, which I appreciated, so

323
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,799
it was cool. Rogue Prince of
Persia. We got a bit of an

324
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:17,799
update on that game. And then
I laughed out loud watching this when they

325
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:22,119
said and something about time or like
it's time. I forget what the pun

326
00:19:22,319 --> 00:19:25,440
was, but something, and then
they had the sense of time, you

327
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:30,160
know, font a little little sizzler
twenty twenty six. I was like,

328
00:19:30,279 --> 00:19:33,960
yeah, this game is still two
years away. That's crazy here. I

329
00:19:34,079 --> 00:19:37,200
understand why they showed it because it's
like an anniversary year. But when I

330
00:19:37,279 --> 00:19:41,559
saw twenty twenty six, I just
laughed because Summer game Best Xbox, Like,

331
00:19:41,599 --> 00:19:44,680
no one's throwing that number. Oh
there was so far away. My

332
00:19:44,799 --> 00:19:48,839
numbers, so it's sci fi numbers
and what to me? I didn't know

333
00:19:48,839 --> 00:19:52,799
because I knew this remake had been
rumored, but I didn't know. I

334
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,480
guess they at some point did officially
announce it, so I guess from the

335
00:19:56,559 --> 00:19:59,960
announcement, I think to switch to
a new studio and then like okay,

336
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,640
got restarted in development or I don't
know, it's been in quite a rocky

337
00:20:03,759 --> 00:20:07,160
road. So from the announcement too, if this game comes out in twenty

338
00:20:07,279 --> 00:20:11,799
twenty six, it's a seven year
span from the announcement to the date and

339
00:20:11,039 --> 00:20:15,480
for just a remake, and it's
like, yeah, that is that's something.

340
00:20:15,559 --> 00:20:18,319
But they seem to be they're putting
a lot of their eggs in their

341
00:20:18,799 --> 00:20:22,799
Prince of Persia basket. So it's
it's curious and I'm curious how that remake

342
00:20:22,799 --> 00:20:26,079
will do. But uh, yeah, it was twenty twenty six. That

343
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:30,319
was a that was quite a trip
to see that one. So mm hmmmm.

344
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:37,119
Avatar Frontiers of Pandora has some DLCA
July sixteenth, and I think this

345
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,039
is just kind of part one and
there's some other stuff House time Taylor.

346
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,680
Yeah, are you you're gonna be
jumping now? You're gonna be jumping into

347
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:48,240
be Soft. You want keep only
to call the service forward, but it's

348
00:20:48,279 --> 00:20:51,880
called you be Soft plus. Yeah, since you're gonna be a subscriber to

349
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:56,680
that soon enough, do you think
you'll jump into Pandora for a little R

350
00:20:56,799 --> 00:21:00,039
and R. I'll jump into it. I've it's This has been on my

351
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,920
watch list for a while. I
really wanted to kind of immerse myself in

352
00:21:03,079 --> 00:21:08,799
there and wish for your backlog.
But your watch list my watch list.

353
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,200
I got a watch list, a
wish list, beautiful in a backlog list.

354
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:17,039
Yeah, I'll be streaming like,
oh, it's amazing, please on

355
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:22,359
this list. This just looks fantastic
and it looks like it's it's right out

356
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,720
my alley. I really want to
experience it, and uh yeah, I

357
00:21:25,839 --> 00:21:29,680
think I feel bad that I wasn't
there day one, but I swear like

358
00:21:29,799 --> 00:21:32,880
it went on sale really really quick, but not a good enough sale where

359
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:37,960
I wanted to pay that price for
it. Yeah, yeah, but I'll

360
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:41,920
play it. I'll play it.
Yeah, don't Travis any edition, never

361
00:21:42,079 --> 00:21:47,680
ever touching this game whatsoever unless it's
out of twenty four hours stream. Yeah,

362
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,000
I would happily watch Taylor play it
though. Well that's what I would

363
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,519
say. True. Yeah, my
next notice, as thousand screed, I

364
00:21:53,559 --> 00:21:56,640
definitely skipped over some update things.
Travis. You seemed hyped by those things.

365
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,559
Anything you wanted to show do.
No, I wasn't hype. I

366
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,200
was hype how they did them.
I was hyped that I liked that.

367
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,240
I feel like there's been many times
where it's like, oh, you know,

368
00:22:04,519 --> 00:22:07,039
like even the crew when they came
out, which I surprised at going

369
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:11,440
he was there for like two three
minutes tops. There are times they come

370
00:22:11,519 --> 00:22:15,920
on stage. There's a fucking car
there, there's a there's a guy that's

371
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,920
some race or that we don't care
about. Yeah, yeah, you're right.

372
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,240
But there's just like even just little
stuff. If they did like that

373
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,559
bra haul a thing like in the
past, it would be like a dev

374
00:22:25,599 --> 00:22:29,079
comes up for each of these for
the most minor update. I think I

375
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:33,440
liked how they did the montage of
them, so I appreciate how they did

376
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,400
it because in previous years they have
not They've made a big deal out of

377
00:22:37,519 --> 00:22:41,559
little things. So you can tell
I skimmed this conference. Relative to the

378
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:48,599
Xbox there's not much there. Uh
okay, sos SASAE screen is next up

379
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,680
for me. Sorry, Did you
have any other things that I skipped over

380
00:22:52,759 --> 00:22:55,559
that is? Yeah, I didn't
think so, So that's the screen shadows.

381
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:57,720
We got quite a lot of gameplay
here. Was also a little bit

382
00:22:57,799 --> 00:23:00,920
in the Xbox Showcase, and there's
been a lot of info even in the

383
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,039
last couple of weeks that just haven't
had you on side Quest recently to talk

384
00:23:06,039 --> 00:23:10,000
about those things. Taylor, So, how are you feeling about Shadows?

385
00:23:10,079 --> 00:23:14,440
What did you think of what we
got here? I am so ready for

386
00:23:14,559 --> 00:23:18,000
this game, coming a hot and
heavy off of Showgun, Like, I'm

387
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:25,799
just the whole set piece era here
has just been Oh, I'm primely ready.

388
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,440
And what I've seen from this game
looks like they've really really refined so

389
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,119
many things. The weaponry that we're
getting into, particularly I hope I'm saying

390
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,920
this right. The kush Regama.
It's like those like sites that are on

391
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:41,200
the chains that they're spinning around.
That's the coolest things show Yeah, I

392
00:23:41,279 --> 00:23:44,400
can't wait to be using those.
That's gonna be great. The way that

393
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,599
you can just really capitalize on being
an assassin where you're going pro and crawling

394
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,519
around, you're taking out light sources, you're playing with like a character's kind

395
00:23:52,559 --> 00:23:56,799
of like they're psyche a little bit. The way you're sneaking in like it

396
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,400
just feels like it's they've combined being
an assassin with and just now, I

397
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,119
haven't played Ghost of Tsushima, so
I don't know exactly how that is in

398
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,920
comparison to this, But I love
too that you can basically not be limited

399
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:12,240
by certain missions, Whereas you have
to play a certain character. With the

400
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:18,279
Sabuscrete Syndicate, you had Ev and
Jacob Fry and you could switch between them

401
00:24:18,279 --> 00:24:19,799
at any point in time, but
when you wanted to do certain missions,

402
00:24:19,839 --> 00:24:23,480
you had to play as those certain
characters. With this, though, just

403
00:24:23,599 --> 00:24:27,039
tossed her own and then like anger, what were the like attributes that they

404
00:24:27,079 --> 00:24:33,440
had? Again, I don't remember
you remember that we were a testosterone Yeah,

405
00:24:33,799 --> 00:24:38,000
I thought it was. It was
especial power. Yeah, it was

406
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:45,960
just anger and being like manly supid. So yeah, I was gonna ask

407
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,400
you how that mechanical works. Do
you think it'll be like at any point

408
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:53,440
you could switch between them or it'll
I believe they came out and confirmed it

409
00:24:53,559 --> 00:24:56,240
that it's it won't impact the story, Like you can go through the whole

410
00:24:56,279 --> 00:25:00,759
story and just pick whichever character you
want to do whatever, which is back

411
00:25:00,759 --> 00:25:03,960
and forth like GTA five style,
you can yeah, yeah, so you're

412
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:08,680
not limited to it. And then
you have Yeah, I mean the characters

413
00:25:08,759 --> 00:25:11,880
themselves, like they're both very very
enticing. I like her, they both

414
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:18,279
are very very unique, like you
can choose to be the assassin Shnoby or

415
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,079
the samurai. And I think,
how did they say her name? It

416
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:26,759
was like nail uh NOI or I
hope, I'm probably not saying that right.

417
00:25:26,079 --> 00:25:30,000
She's fucking fantastic and I'm probably gonna
spend like seventy five percent of my

418
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:34,960
time just enjoying playing as her,
while I'll use either twenty five percent playing

419
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:37,599
as you suit k the Samurai.
The samurais are very cool, but like

420
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,599
the Shnoby Assassin, that's fucking That's
like, Yeah, I'm with you on

421
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:45,119
that. I'm playing the assassin or
the Samurai like five percent of the time

422
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,960
just to say I did. But
then I'm playing her like the way she's

423
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:52,640
like doing backflips off buildings and like
flipping around and obviously I'm more of a

424
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:56,720
stealth guy than like the solsy type
combat whatever they have going on here.

425
00:25:56,839 --> 00:25:59,559
So I'm with you on that.
I mean, once again, because of

426
00:25:59,599 --> 00:26:03,319
you, we so off. Plus, I'll be playing this game, Taylor,

427
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:04,640
I'll join you for in a thousand
screen review. Isn't that crazy?

428
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,599
Nice? I love it? I
love it? Yeah, So I'm excited

429
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,200
to jump into this. Yeah,
I mean, I think for me,

430
00:26:11,319 --> 00:26:17,480
the hype level is definitely lower,
Like I'm checking it out because that's subscription

431
00:26:17,559 --> 00:26:21,000
service. Otherwise I definitely wouldn't be
just because, like I don't know,

432
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,279
when I've tried to play these games
in the past, they just don't really

433
00:26:22,319 --> 00:26:26,359
do it for me necessarily. And
I have Ghosts Sushimo, which I love,

434
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:30,279
and I'm you know, I'm gonna
play that sequel when it comes out,

435
00:26:30,319 --> 00:26:33,039
so I feel like my I've had
my fix in that way. But

436
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,359
I think there are some cool things
they showed off here. And obviously the

437
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,599
stealth I love a good stealth gameplay, and this stuff looks really fun,

438
00:26:41,039 --> 00:26:45,119
and like rating camps and stuff was
just one of my favorite elements of Ghosts

439
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,680
and so to get you know,
more set pieces for that, all sorts

440
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:52,200
of crazy stuff going on here,
some new mechanics and different mechanics. I'm

441
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,759
into it. So I'm excited for
this one. How about you? And

442
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,400
Travis? Not really, And I'm
sorry, And I don't think it looks

443
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:00,240
bad. I think it's it's just
that it's like what Dylan said, I

444
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,279
just I had that with a lot
of other games too, where it's like,

445
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:07,400
oh, it's like what's the other
one is the Rise of Ronan.

446
00:27:07,519 --> 00:27:10,359
No that's out right now or something
like that are coming up. There's just

447
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:14,240
other games that I just see if
there's anything that's not even that Monkey game

448
00:27:14,319 --> 00:27:18,319
that's coming out to an extent,
like if it doesn't look none of them

449
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:22,599
have sold me on why do I
need to play this? In addition to

450
00:27:22,759 --> 00:27:26,480
Ghosts, you know when that already
kind of hit all the boxes I wanted.

451
00:27:26,559 --> 00:27:30,960
And then I also see some of
these games doing things lesser where this

452
00:27:30,079 --> 00:27:34,000
game doesn't look bad, but it
doesn't have the beauty of Ghost of Ssushima,

453
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,279
right, that's the thing. And
in the combat like the air point

454
00:27:37,319 --> 00:27:41,200
out that one weapon like man,
I wish I could have that because that

455
00:27:41,279 --> 00:27:44,400
looked like tons of fun. But
one weapon does not make you know,

456
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:45,720
a great game. I'm not saying
this gonna be a bad game, or

457
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,720
that's to say one weapon does not
make Travis want to get said game.

458
00:27:51,279 --> 00:27:53,440
I'm with you, guys. I
would completely be with the Assassin the Samurai.

459
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:57,720
There's some elements too. It looked
like very similar to how Gin would

460
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,839
fight in certain areas, but was
Gin as that would be in certain areas

461
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,240
you could be the assass and you
go all over where this is taking almost

462
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:10,079
the Gin character from Gohoes and like
like ripping him apart, and here's the

463
00:28:10,279 --> 00:28:12,400
battle one and here's like the Assassin
one. So for me, I would

464
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,000
definitely play as her most of the
time because I liked all the moves,

465
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,759
set the ideas. I did really
like some of these, like the bigger

466
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,079
kills when they did like the black
and white and the red came up,

467
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:26,200
So that I think is I don't
know if Assassin's Creed done that before,

468
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:30,119
but it felt a bit more like
a stylistic choice and Assassin's Creeds done in

469
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,119
the past, So I think that's
smart to step aside from the franchise and

470
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:36,240
like what else can we do?
And that's an element that's different than Goes.

471
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:38,359
So yeah, it's a tough thing
where I would like to There's lots

472
00:28:38,359 --> 00:28:41,640
of Assassin Creed games where I'd like
to play, because I did like the

473
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:45,480
original two that I did, but
they're just so much further down on the

474
00:28:45,519 --> 00:28:48,039
backlog. And this is the same
thing like if they came out and said,

475
00:28:48,079 --> 00:28:51,200
hey, we're done with Goshushima,
We're never making another one, then

476
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,039
I may, Okay, maybe I'll
do this, but because like Dylan said,

477
00:28:53,279 --> 00:28:56,880
we know at least next two to
three years, it's gonna be there,

478
00:28:56,359 --> 00:28:59,920
and I'm gonna get my itch scratch. Plus we already had legends.

479
00:29:00,119 --> 00:29:03,119
So yeah, and I don't think
I look bad. I think I'm very

480
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,160
happy for the Assassin's Creed fan and
I'm happy for people that don't have a

481
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:10,599
PlayStation because I think this will be
if you are a Prime Xbox Switch person

482
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:12,880
and you haven't played Gsushima, but
you've always won a game kind of like

483
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,200
that. I think that'll be the
equivalent to this. I don't think it

484
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,839
will be nearly as good, but
I think it will get the job done.

485
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,480
And like I said, it feels
maybe a little too late on some

486
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,279
aspects, but I think there's still
enough people that are hyped and I think

487
00:29:26,319 --> 00:29:30,480
it still looks good. It doesn't
necessarily look bad, doesn't it Just I

488
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:34,599
can't personally invest in because I have, you know, the the just the

489
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,039
version I prefer already, right,
So it's just uh, and who knows.

490
00:29:38,119 --> 00:29:41,599
Maybe when it comes out, people
will play it say oh there's X,

491
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,680
Y and Z, but same thing. It's I think the story will

492
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,359
be kind of basic, but I
think a good showing overall, because I

493
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:52,799
think people are still generally genuinely excited
for to, you know, be in

494
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:57,839
Japan with the Assassin's Creed type of
lore. So, Taylor, any other

495
00:29:59,559 --> 00:30:04,079
juicy details from what we've gone here
that's interesting, new or different to you.

496
00:30:04,799 --> 00:30:08,079
Big thing is the season's changing.
I think that's that's huge. The

497
00:30:08,119 --> 00:30:11,640
weather mechanics are cool, and so
you're gonna you're gonna be going into areas

498
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:17,000
that they were highlighting here that it's
wintertime. The water's frozen over. You

499
00:30:17,039 --> 00:30:18,480
can't go swimming, you can't get
in there, it's iced over. So

500
00:30:18,599 --> 00:30:22,119
you got to like do your thing. You can come back when it's spring

501
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:22,920
or summer and all of a sudden
you can get back in there. So

502
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:27,799
you're gonna have certain accessibility when it
comes to assassinations, certain buildings you're trying

503
00:30:27,839 --> 00:30:32,240
to get into. And I think
weather affecting that is really really cool.

504
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:36,400
Uh Yeah, there's so many other
cool, unique little things that they've they've

505
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,359
added in there, which I really
really enjoyed. Yet you mentioned, Travis,

506
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,680
the dynamic of just getting that final
killing blow and just like that flash.

507
00:30:42,519 --> 00:30:47,119
That's new and that's very very welcome. I think that's it's beautiful.

508
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:51,279
I love that. I guess the
combat system. I think they've really kind

509
00:30:51,319 --> 00:30:57,200
of fine tuned and honed it in
quite well after they've revised it with Origins

510
00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:00,400
and kind of been tweaking it since
then. So I like that they really

511
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,880
are focusing on just finding that opening
and your weakness and your opponent finding his

512
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:10,079
weakness and take advantage of it.
This game is just it's fantastic. And

513
00:31:10,119 --> 00:31:14,160
as I said, my goal is
to complete Mirage well in advance before this

514
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:18,200
comes out, so well, you
don't go much time. November is right

515
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:22,240
around the corner. Really, I
know, fuck so goes by fast.

516
00:31:22,279 --> 00:31:26,680
So you got a cup four months
there, no more call duty, just

517
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,039
some more call duty, and then
you got Star Wars in August. So

518
00:31:29,079 --> 00:31:32,039
you gotta I feel like you gotta
kind of finish. I feel like you

519
00:31:32,079 --> 00:31:34,680
gotta. You gotta start in that
Assassin's Creed journey right now and finish before

520
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,359
I'm almost I am almost done.
I'm more than halfway. So that's not

521
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:45,000
almost done. That's fifty one,
my friend, do it. I believe

522
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:49,680
in you. Anything else from this
showcase, my friends, No, that

523
00:31:49,759 --> 00:31:52,799
was about it. They delivered where
they needed to, and I think that's

524
00:31:52,839 --> 00:31:57,599
a good thing. Yeah for sure. Okay, thank you everyone for listening

525
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:04,000
to these Trio of episodes here.
Next week we'll be back to the regular

526
00:32:04,079 --> 00:32:07,519
scheduled programming, you know that Nintendo
Direct who knows what's happening. If it

527
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:12,799
does drop on some random day,
we might do a cast early to cover

528
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,000
it. We'll just kind of wait
and see and see how it goes and

529
00:32:15,039 --> 00:32:17,799
all that, so stay tuned all
that, and uh yeah, thank you

530
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,880
for listening. We'll see you again
next time. Bye.
