WEBVTT 1 00:00:13.080 --> 00:00:16.839 You are listening to Video Games to the Max. Hello, 2 00:00:17.079 --> 00:00:20.480 and welcome to another edition of Video Games to the Max. 3 00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:24.719 This is a special one as we're going over talking 4 00:00:24.760 --> 00:00:27.239 about reviewing whatever you want to call it. The Game 5 00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:31.960 Awards twenty twenty four. It was quite a show here, 6 00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:36.560 ran about three and a half hours long, y ish 7 00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:41.159 at least three, and you know, had all the kitten 8 00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:44.280 Kaboodo Awards announced with all the stuff you'd expect. And 9 00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:46.240 of course it's pho big. I can't just have Mark here, 10 00:00:46.240 --> 00:00:49.880 I gotta have Randy as well, so welcome back Randy 11 00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:51.280 as well. How are you feeling. 12 00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:55.320 I'm so glad I didn't like live stream this. I 13 00:00:55.359 --> 00:00:58.159 wouldn't have a voice. It was, yeah, quite the wild 14 00:00:58.240 --> 00:00:59.719 ride that Jeff put us on. 15 00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:02.520 That's so they you know, the rumors going around the 16 00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:04.079 four of the shows thought it was there was supposed 17 00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:06.200 to be two huge announcements that are gonna be like, 18 00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:09.799 oh my god, and I think we know now which 19 00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:13.760 ones they are. There were more than two, Yeah, there 20 00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:16.079 were more than two exactly, but definitely you can you 21 00:01:16.079 --> 00:01:17.799 can kind of see what they were talking about there. 22 00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:20.840 But probably the opening and the ending I think is 23 00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:26.959 maybe what they were hardly reflecting on. But I guess 24 00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:33.439 my first like thought of that is this when I 25 00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:36.040 got done like just thinking about everything and all the 26 00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:39.200 announcements and all that, is like this finally felt like 27 00:01:39.760 --> 00:01:42.319 it took him ten years. Maybe it's because it's the 28 00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:45.560 tenth anniversary and he's got the cache now, he's got 29 00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:47.920 the pull a little bit more than he did many 30 00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:50.640 years ago, or whatever, But I think this is it. 31 00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:53.840 This is what he wants this show to be. It 32 00:01:53.879 --> 00:01:57.640 finally feels like E three mixed with an award show 33 00:01:58.359 --> 00:02:00.480 mixed with you know, a little bit of something else. 34 00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:04.359 I thought this was his best one he's ever done. 35 00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:08.000 Yeah, I think it's the closest he's gotten to exactly 36 00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:09.840 what he keeps saying that he wants it to be. 37 00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:12.199 It's kind of a celebration of the past, president and 38 00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:15.319 future of gaming, and that's exactly what we got here. 39 00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:17.960 I mean, he brought up a lot of people that 40 00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:19.879 have been in the industry for a long time that 41 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:22.479 they had that special award that they gave out as well, 42 00:02:22.520 --> 00:02:26.840 which is kind of the behind the scenes industry stuff. Obviously. Yes, 43 00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:29.879 if you're just looking for awards, some of the awards 44 00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:32.599 go by it pretty quick, but I thought they gave 45 00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:35.199 extra time for some of them and they weren't rushing 46 00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:37.639 them off the stage, which was nice to see. So 47 00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:40.400 everyone kind of got their moment. And of course the 48 00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:44.520 reveals were insane as well. And yes, this thing went 49 00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:47.439 well over three hours, especially if you count their pre 50 00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:52.199 show or whatever they're calling it. But other than maybe 51 00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:54.800 an hour in the middle, it felt like the whole 52 00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:55.439 thing flew. 53 00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:56.919 By mark that one hour. 54 00:02:57.919 --> 00:03:01.800 Well it usually other than the first ten minutes. In 55 00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:04.280 the last five minutes, but the show felt like at 56 00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:06.560 drug for or so we're improving. 57 00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:08.719 Yeah, definitely, go ahead. 58 00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:10.879 I was gonna say, I still just don't like how 59 00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:13.680 it doles out the awards. That's still the biggest issue 60 00:03:13.719 --> 00:03:16.280 of this thing. He bangs up like five awards in 61 00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:20.199 like thirty seconds, and then he has like a performance 62 00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:22.520 not just by Snoop Dog, by some white man I 63 00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:27.080 haven't never even heard before, and last the orchestra twice right, 64 00:03:27.479 --> 00:03:29.479 And I like, I had a film critic friend going 65 00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:32.680 like legitimately asking like why is this thing longer than 66 00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:34.919 the Golden Globes? And it's like, do you want a 67 00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:37.639 joke ancer or the real answer? Like I you know, like, 68 00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:41.120 there's no reason this thing should be as long for me. 69 00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:46.400 I don't The length doesn't bother me necessarily, because that's 70 00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:49.080 the only way you're gonna get the dev's getting to 71 00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:51.680 be able to talk. I think he had to make 72 00:03:51.719 --> 00:03:55.360 that sacrifice of if I want everything that I want 73 00:03:55.719 --> 00:03:58.120 else on the show and I don't have to do 74 00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:01.680 the wrap it up stuff, I have to be okay 75 00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:04.719 with the show being close to four hours or whatever 76 00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:07.199 like the oscars would be, and you can decide to 77 00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:10.680 turn it off. And I think, to me, except for 78 00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:13.439 the Soup Dog one, which that one was obviously you know, hey, 79 00:04:13.479 --> 00:04:15.039 I got a chance to have Soup Dog do a 80 00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:18.480 do some some music, you know, why not get him 81 00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:22.040 out here whatever, The other ones kind of felt like 82 00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:25.759 almost like commercial placement, like here's like, here's a break 83 00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:30.279 from all the announcement flourish that you had. Especially that 84 00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:34.040 first opening thirty minutes when when the SIPs seven Orchestra 85 00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:36.480 came on, I was like, oh great, I can like 86 00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:38.480 take a breather. I don't have to pay attention for 87 00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:41.199 a little bit. You know. It didn't feel so much 88 00:04:41.319 --> 00:04:44.800 like here's imagine dragons to waste our time for ten minutes, 89 00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:46.639 you know so. 90 00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:49.600 But then it was weird, like he had a Eela 91 00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:52.800 Pernell like on stage for the best adaptation and she 92 00:04:52.839 --> 00:04:58.040 didn't even speak. Yeah, awkward, like she didn't want to. Yeah, 93 00:04:58.319 --> 00:04:59.160 that was the whole point. 94 00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:02.040 Like he Todd Howard pointed to her to go up 95 00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:04.480 and she's like shook him off. It wasn't like Day 96 00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:06.399 said go up there and don't say a word. She 97 00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:07.000 didn't want to. 98 00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:09.480 I think he even like did the thing where he's like, 99 00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:11.920 I forgot the name of the other the tall the 100 00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:14.600 tall guy. Yeah, he kind of like did that thing 101 00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:18.639 where he's he's trying to push his hands to go, okay, Ella, 102 00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:21.319 your time, and she kind of the same thing she 103 00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:23.879 does with Todd, kind of like I don't know well 104 00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:28.959 to me as some of the like I get why, right, 105 00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:31.240 because she still has the whole thing he wants, the celebrity, 106 00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:35.199 So I get why some of the decisions, like the 107 00:05:35.279 --> 00:05:37.879 ongoing game thing, I would have been more upset about. 108 00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:40.240 But I feel like Hell Divers too deserves to have 109 00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:44.360 its moment because it got robbed from being a Game 110 00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:47.319 of the Year, you know, depending on what you feel 111 00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:49.240 like game of the Year should be. Like I feel like, 112 00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:52.160 if you're such an important game to that year, you 113 00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:55.360 kind of deserved to be in the category. But again, 114 00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:57.319 this is voted on by a million other people and 115 00:05:57.439 --> 00:06:02.040 other countries and whatever. I didn't mind that so much. 116 00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:05.240 The adaptation thing is kind of like I get it 117 00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:07.600 they wanted to have a reason to have Aaron Paul there, 118 00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:10.240 but it's kind of like, did we really is that 119 00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:12.120 that's the one we're gonna choose instead of a one 120 00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:16.720 this about an actual video game, you know, But I 121 00:06:16.720 --> 00:06:19.600 think I feel like that's being nitpicky to me, Like 122 00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:23.519 the most of the decisions he made, even the Muppets, 123 00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:26.279 which he's had them uppets before and they were terrible, 124 00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:29.600 and this time it is actually good because he's making 125 00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:32.120 fun of himself and he's making fun of like the 126 00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:36.160 stuff from last year. Yeah, but he recognizes that he 127 00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:37.560 he kind of did wrong there. 128 00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:40.800 But they took up a lot of time, and it's like, 129 00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:44.759 why this bullshit here? Yeah? 130 00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:50.079 Yeah, he's there. He's trying to he's trying to play 131 00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:53.360 Kate to other people, not just the gamers that are 132 00:06:53.399 --> 00:06:55.879 gonna watch this, right, because every year it keeps growing 133 00:06:56.519 --> 00:06:59.959 this uh you know, you're having MPR and other outlet 134 00:07:00.199 --> 00:07:02.920 that are not gaming related covering this thing. That's what 135 00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:06.399 he wants. He wants it to go beyond just gaming 136 00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:09.360 for that one night of the year, you know. So 137 00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:11.399 I don't know, it doesn't. 138 00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:14.759 Literally called the Game Awards though it's not. But I mean, like, 139 00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:18.680 like I would rather to cut down that bullshit and 140 00:07:18.759 --> 00:07:22.800 had like, you know, you know, best narrative, have like 141 00:07:22.800 --> 00:07:24.519 an actual ceremony. 142 00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:28.439 I mean it did they had Sam might go out 143 00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:32.959 there and talk right and do his bit and look 144 00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:35.399 look like I said, this is never gonna be perfect. 145 00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:38.480 There's always gonna be something you're gonna complain about, right, 146 00:07:39.079 --> 00:07:41.560 But I feel like of all the ones that we 147 00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:44.519 could last year, we had way more complaints and more 148 00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:46.680 legitimate complaints than we do. I feel like this year, 149 00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:50.079 because he chalked this thing full of really what we 150 00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:52.920 come to this thing for? Right? The announcements, Yeah, we 151 00:07:52.959 --> 00:07:55.720 can talk about the awards all we want to. That's cool. 152 00:07:55.839 --> 00:07:58.800 I love the fact that after about one I know, 153 00:07:58.959 --> 00:08:00.720 Mark probably you don't. 154 00:08:01.040 --> 00:08:05.079 I'm uh neutral on it, Like I'm it's fine. I'm surprised, 155 00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:07.360 you like, because you hate it at one level, you know, 156 00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:07.879 you have more. 157 00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:10.360 I love the game It's just okay. That one level 158 00:08:10.360 --> 00:08:12.680 frustrated me. But I love that game. I'm plattinum the game. 159 00:08:12.680 --> 00:08:15.439 It's the only platinum I ever have. Is is that game? 160 00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:19.560 So you know? But and and the fact that they 161 00:08:19.920 --> 00:08:22.399 released that Christmas level actually right, you can go play 162 00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:25.879 that right now, which is cool, like the fact that 163 00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:31.399 they keep releasing stuff for this game. Also. But I'm 164 00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:34.480 glad Rebirth didn't get horizoned and won something. 165 00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:36.600 He won the one award I thought it was going 166 00:08:36.639 --> 00:08:38.919 to because Metaphor could have won that award. 167 00:08:38.960 --> 00:08:41.000 Man Metaphor could have easily won that award. 168 00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:42.720 So I don't know. 169 00:08:42.879 --> 00:08:45.799 I've heard like two songs from like Legit, so I'm 170 00:08:45.799 --> 00:08:48.080 not going to say it didn't deserve it or did 171 00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:49.279 deserve it, because I don't know. 172 00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:52.240 I mean all those soundtracks in that that whole thing 173 00:08:52.279 --> 00:08:52.720 were so. 174 00:08:53.320 --> 00:08:55.799 I mean from that developer, for sure, I can't. I'm 175 00:08:55.840 --> 00:08:58.799 not into Persona, but Persona music is fantastic, so I 176 00:08:58.799 --> 00:08:59.879 get it. I just haven't heard it. 177 00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:02.759 And shout out to Neva for winning Games for Impact 178 00:09:02.840 --> 00:09:05.960 and Balatro winning Best Indie. I mean that kind of 179 00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:09.200 felt like a shoe into me. Blotro was just too popular. 180 00:09:09.240 --> 00:09:12.039 I feel like in our win. But all right, let's 181 00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:16.519 get to the actual announcement stuff, which what a way 182 00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:20.840 to kick off your whole thing. Well, I guess we 183 00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:23.080 can start with the pre show, which they had some 184 00:09:23.639 --> 00:09:27.279 cool bangers like for me and personally two of my 185 00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:31.000 favorite franchises. In the first seven minutes, Ninja Guiden gets 186 00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:34.919 a new game. That's the first announcement that they make, 187 00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:37.440 which and it's being made by the dot Mu folks, 188 00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:41.559 which is you know, Turtles in the Shutter Revenge and 189 00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:44.559 Streets Rage four, two games that I think we all 190 00:09:44.600 --> 00:09:47.879 loved here, So that was a cool surprise. 191 00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:50.320 It's not going to face on Ninja guid in Yaiba. 192 00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:56.679 Yeah no, please, let's not do that. I don't know 193 00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:58.120 how big of a fan of a Ninja guy and 194 00:09:58.159 --> 00:09:59.879 you are, Randy. 195 00:09:59.559 --> 00:10:01.919 But I'm glad we're back to the two D stuff. 196 00:10:02.000 --> 00:10:04.759 I mean, obviously, I'm an old man, so I grew 197 00:10:04.799 --> 00:10:07.519 up with the OLDES games, and yes, the three D 198 00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:10.200 games were just as hard, and we're wild for the 199 00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:12.960 Xbox and stuff. But it looked awesome. This was one 200 00:10:13.480 --> 00:10:15.440 that you can kind of tell us like we're starting 201 00:10:15.440 --> 00:10:16.960 off with this, we're gonna have it we're gonna have 202 00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:17.519 a fun show. 203 00:10:17.720 --> 00:10:20.279 So I sent this. 204 00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:23.279 Message to you Sean near the about near the end 205 00:10:23.360 --> 00:10:26.440 of the show. It's like, basically the Game Awards was, Hey, 206 00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:28.600 do you remember these games from like twenty thirty, forty 207 00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:30.919 years ago? They're all getting sequels and get. 208 00:10:30.720 --> 00:10:33.879 Ready does that concern you at all in a way 209 00:10:34.039 --> 00:10:37.200 that like, yeah, but we're getting too many. 210 00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:40.360 But we're getting sequels now. We're not like we've gone 211 00:10:40.360 --> 00:10:44.440 through the remake washing machine for far too long. These 212 00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:48.360 are sequels, like we're going back to old franchises that 213 00:10:48.440 --> 00:10:51.120 have been dormant. Maybe it give us hope for other 214 00:10:51.360 --> 00:10:54.080 franchises that have been dormant, But these are not well 215 00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:58.399 you know, here, here's your Ninja guiden Nes trilogy collection 216 00:10:58.960 --> 00:11:01.240 or here's your Rock collection. 217 00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:03.440 No, these are like new games. 218 00:11:02.960 --> 00:11:05.039 For all these different franchises, and that's what I'm more 219 00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:07.320 excited about. I was like, all right, we're you're actually 220 00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:10.759 going back to franchises, but coming up with new ideas. 221 00:11:10.960 --> 00:11:12.000 I'm so hyped to that. 222 00:11:12.320 --> 00:11:14.360 I want to mention Slight Aspire to. Getting a new 223 00:11:14.440 --> 00:11:16.720 trailer was awesome for me too. I love to slay 224 00:11:16.759 --> 00:11:20.399 the spire. And also the fact that slow cap is 225 00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:25.600 making a multiplayer soccer game. Uh that looked like legit, 226 00:11:25.679 --> 00:11:28.039 Like I've won an Arcade soccer game since they stopped 227 00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:30.679 making the FIFA street games. 228 00:11:30.279 --> 00:11:32.360 So like apparently forgets. 229 00:11:34.120 --> 00:11:37.320 I mean, that wasn't that great that I will give 230 00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:40.840 blessing from kind of Funny the NOD for best joke 231 00:11:40.960 --> 00:11:45.879 about that game and calling it a FIFU. That's so 232 00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:46.720 as well done. 233 00:11:47.120 --> 00:11:51.240 That was anything from the pre show that stood out 234 00:11:51.240 --> 00:11:52.159 to you guys at all or. 235 00:11:52.639 --> 00:11:57.399 I didn't watch it, so okay, I mean at the 236 00:11:57.440 --> 00:12:01.240 eight hour pre show or the fact that very and it. 237 00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:04.120 Was the same as the Game awards. Nothing was different. 238 00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:08.559 Yeah, I mean the Shadow Labyrinth game where they're doing 239 00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:14.240 like a I don't know if I guess he is 240 00:12:14.360 --> 00:12:17.320 like apparently this is also on the Secret Level episode 241 00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:19.759 where they have pac Man, so I guess I haven't 242 00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:20.600 watched Secret. 243 00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:23.679 Level yet, but I mean neither, but it looks wild. 244 00:12:23.919 --> 00:12:25.840 Like I don't know if this is like pac Man. 245 00:12:25.879 --> 00:12:28.480 It's telling the other character what to do for him 246 00:12:29.120 --> 00:12:32.279 or whatever, but that looks like ridiculous. I was like, 247 00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:34.679 this is this is not what I spent when they 248 00:12:34.679 --> 00:12:38.559 said alternate take on you know, pac Man or whatever. 249 00:12:38.759 --> 00:12:41.720 So yeah, that was that was really cool. 250 00:12:42.120 --> 00:12:44.120 I need to see more of it. But it's an 251 00:12:44.120 --> 00:12:46.840 interesting take on pac Man, especially because like halfway through 252 00:12:46.840 --> 00:12:49.399 the trailer you're hearing classic pac Man noises and it's 253 00:12:49.399 --> 00:12:50.399 gonna be a mind trip of. 254 00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:53.799 Well, uh you know, Robert, you could always I could 255 00:12:53.799 --> 00:12:55.519 always put you in here. I didn't know you were 256 00:12:55.679 --> 00:12:56.559 awake and do. 257 00:12:56.519 --> 00:12:57.000 A show Man. 258 00:12:58.519 --> 00:13:02.159 But uh yeah, I mean Witcher four you start that 259 00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:05.360 off with, that's your first announcer from the actual show. 260 00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:09.440 I'm sure that the Grifters are going to complain about 261 00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:14.200 Siri being the main protagonist. 262 00:13:12.840 --> 00:13:15.279 Gold when he said I I always ever gonna play 263 00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:16.320 this game because he play as a woman. 264 00:13:17.320 --> 00:13:20.600 But I mean, like, isn't that pretty much? They made 265 00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:22.720 that very clear at the end of three that she 266 00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:25.960 was to be the protagonists basically, or the one that 267 00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:26.720 carry the torch. 268 00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:32.000 So I don't know, finish three okay, I mean sure, like. 269 00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:36.440 Yeah, but I mean look cool like her fighting that 270 00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:42.559 big monster. Yeah, and the setup for it, like it 271 00:13:42.600 --> 00:13:45.159 took me a while to figure out, oh okay, this 272 00:13:45.159 --> 00:13:47.639 this is Witcher And when I figured out before they 273 00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:50.519 put the C PUBJCT RED logo on there. But still it's. 274 00:13:50.840 --> 00:13:52.879 One two swords. You know the score. 275 00:13:53.240 --> 00:13:57.679 Yeah, talk about a big get for Keeley to get 276 00:13:58.600 --> 00:14:02.159 them just announcing it there, that's that's pretty great to 277 00:14:02.159 --> 00:14:05.879 get that at the beginning. So to show up though, 278 00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:12.759 Reverse finally coming is coming to PC a month before 279 00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:14.960 it would have been the one year anniversary, and this 280 00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:17.000 time it's actually coming to Steam at the beginning. It's 281 00:14:17.039 --> 00:14:20.279 not coming to Epic and then getting a year exclusive. 282 00:14:20.440 --> 00:14:22.440 So they want to sell some copies of those things. 283 00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:28.919 I'm sure the mods will be coming very quickly after that. 284 00:14:30.759 --> 00:14:34.799 The other like the this gen Design game that looked 285 00:14:34.840 --> 00:14:38.120 like Mecca Shadow of the Colossus. What did you think 286 00:14:38.120 --> 00:14:40.799 about that? Already? I don't know how much of a 287 00:14:40.879 --> 00:14:42.120 Shadow of the Colossus. 288 00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:46.159 Oh no, get that out of here. I'm not a 289 00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:49.039 team I don't I don't care. Okay, I don't like 290 00:14:49.120 --> 00:14:53.559 that that franchise at all. It gives me bad memories 291 00:14:53.600 --> 00:14:58.120 from my backlog busting project days are playing those? No, No, 292 00:14:58.240 --> 00:14:58.960 I'm not interesting. 293 00:14:59.559 --> 00:15:01.759 I thought it school. I will have to wait and 294 00:15:01.799 --> 00:15:03.519 see on that. I don't know, Mark, are you? 295 00:15:04.080 --> 00:15:05.600 I mean it looked neat, but I just don't know 296 00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:07.960 what the extual gameplay is. If you're gonna be controlling 297 00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:10.679 that big thing or you know, just Polly and that 298 00:15:10.679 --> 00:15:12.279 ship around or with you know, if you're trying to 299 00:15:12.279 --> 00:15:15.960 find like build another body or with what you're doing. 300 00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:18.399 Yeah, it was like, as long as he's not gonna 301 00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:22.519 be the mech version of Trico, then we're good. I 302 00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:24.519 was good with Last Guardian for a while until Treco 303 00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:30.320 just started becoming like I get that was the point. Yeah, 304 00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:33.840 but it's like, oh god, you know, out of Worlds too. 305 00:15:34.480 --> 00:15:36.840 They finally got like a big reveal for that. That 306 00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:37.440 was awesome. 307 00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:39.679 It looked more of the same. I mean, it looked better, 308 00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:41.720 but I was like, yeah, this is kind of what 309 00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:42.799 I expected. Yeah. 310 00:15:42.840 --> 00:15:45.759 Their trailers are always just fun. Yeah, you know you're 311 00:15:45.759 --> 00:15:47.960 gonna get from that kind of game. But I like 312 00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:49.200 that they have fun with the trailer. 313 00:15:49.399 --> 00:15:52.360 I'd like to Fallout three to Wine. 314 00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:55.720 Yeah, that was a good one. It's like what wait, wait, 315 00:15:55.720 --> 00:16:00.320 wait a minute, uh got Long Dark two? Getting enough smart? 316 00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:02.759 I know you like the long It looks cool because look, 317 00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:04.440 there are actually other people in the thing or you know, 318 00:16:04.559 --> 00:16:06.320 the survivors, so yeah, we'll see. 319 00:16:06.919 --> 00:16:10.759 Well, you know, people wanted another Final Fantasy character in Techan, 320 00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:15.080 but they got Clive and they got the best sixteen 321 00:16:16.039 --> 00:16:18.960 in tech and eight and he's coming next week. Does 322 00:16:19.000 --> 00:16:21.799 this make you want to go get tech in right now? 323 00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:24.399 But I know a lot of people are wanting teeth 324 00:16:24.480 --> 00:16:25.399 in it. Tifa wouldn't have. 325 00:16:25.360 --> 00:16:28.600 Got me to do. He's like the teeth is like 326 00:16:28.639 --> 00:16:31.919 the obvious choice because she's an actual like martial arts mark, 327 00:16:32.159 --> 00:16:35.759 you know, fighter like Clive, He's a sucking sword and 328 00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:39.080 techan is not a weapon. I mean he'd fit in 329 00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:41.799 like soul caliber but not teching. 330 00:16:42.519 --> 00:16:44.879 Yeah, like not made sense because he doesn't have to 331 00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:49.080 use his sword technic right. 332 00:16:48.480 --> 00:16:51.759 Well, no he did, but yeah, like he wasn't like 333 00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:53.039 married to it necessarily. 334 00:16:53.240 --> 00:16:55.440 It like warps in and out, so like you could 335 00:16:55.600 --> 00:16:59.039 technically like punch and all that stuff like Clive is. 336 00:16:59.600 --> 00:17:03.039 It's all about I guess, especially because he hardly uses 337 00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:05.039 his magic and it's not very effective. 338 00:17:05.079 --> 00:17:06.160 You can it's just pitiful. 339 00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:13.480 Right. Also, they had what is it?

But you still haven't gotten to the 377 00:18:58.960 --> 00:19:00.440 second biggest announce one of them. 378 00:19:00.640 --> 00:19:01.000 Okay. 379 00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:04.160 I told Jens about elden Ring and he was excited 380 00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:06.480 until I read up on it and told him what 381 00:19:06.519 --> 00:19:09.680 it was, and then that excitement dissolved instantly. 382 00:19:10.279 --> 00:19:12.319 But he gets he now it's a game where he 383 00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:14.599 plays with you, and that's the whole win of the game. 384 00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:22.400 I mean, elden Ring had online co op. I'm just saying, like. 385 00:19:21.079 --> 00:19:23.839 Now it's a co op game, so like, I mean, 386 00:19:23.960 --> 00:19:26.359 he can't play without you, but he can play with you. 387 00:19:26.519 --> 00:19:28.519 So yeah, it's also a roguelike. 388 00:19:29.079 --> 00:19:30.759 Oh okay, I didn't I didn't see that. 389 00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:34.119 Yeah, it's a roguelike with like thirty minute long like 390 00:19:34.359 --> 00:19:37.000 missions because I don't think there's an open world necessarily 391 00:19:37.160 --> 00:19:40.000 like he like looked like a mission mission list. 392 00:19:40.319 --> 00:19:42.680 The biggest you're missing the biggest point that they brought 393 00:19:42.759 --> 00:19:45.680 up like five times. It's a standalone game, so it 394 00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:48.279 could be nominated without anybody throwing. 395 00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:48.880 A freight. 396 00:19:51.599 --> 00:19:55.119 To like they brought that up more than like you 397 00:19:55.160 --> 00:19:56.640 had to read the press release I figure out what 398 00:19:56.720 --> 00:19:58.200 kind of game it was.
