1
00:00:00.360 --> 00:00:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Hello, and welcome to another edition of Video Games to

2
00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:05.599
<v Speaker 1>the Max. I'm your host Seaun Grammery with me as usual,

3
00:00:06.080 --> 00:00:11.119
<v Speaker 1>mister Mark Morrison. All right, well, I mean, you know,

4
00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:14.400
<v Speaker 1>if you didn't know already, I'm sure everybody you know

5
00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:20.160
<v Speaker 1>you heard the big commotion over this last weekend with

6
00:00:21.559 --> 00:00:26.239
<v Speaker 1>PSN going now. So if you're was one of those

7
00:00:26.280 --> 00:00:27.920
<v Speaker 1>that were affected, I don't know. Were you trying to

8
00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:29.239
<v Speaker 1>play anything on your PSN?

9
00:00:29.879 --> 00:00:34.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like Diablo and Infinite Nikki Anythinnite and Nikki and

10
00:00:34.439 --> 00:00:35.439
<v Speaker 2>neither one of those worked.

11
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:39.719
<v Speaker 1>That's I'm sure that was frustrating for you. I couldn't

12
00:00:39.719 --> 00:00:42.679
<v Speaker 1>play a certain game I can't talk about yet. That

13
00:00:42.799 --> 00:00:44.560
<v Speaker 1>was really frustrating because it was like the day that

14
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:46.359
<v Speaker 1>I could play it because I think the Super Bowl

15
00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:48.399
<v Speaker 1>was coming on Sunday and I couldn't. I wasn't going

16
00:00:48.479 --> 00:00:51.039
<v Speaker 1>to be able to touch it. But all right, I

17
00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:53.960
<v Speaker 1>guess I have to keep waiting. Thankfully, it came back

18
00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:56.719
<v Speaker 1>up by the time we got to like, you know,

19
00:00:56.840 --> 00:01:01.439
<v Speaker 1>Sunday for people, or like late Saturday if you're in

20
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:06.120
<v Speaker 1>the West Coast or East coast. You know, I'd also

21
00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:09.359
<v Speaker 1>affect another We're gonna talk about the Capcom Showcase also

22
00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:14.879
<v Speaker 1>affected Monster hutter Wild's beta, so we'll talk about that too.

23
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:20.079
<v Speaker 1>PlayStations also apparently taking down the spam games mark Finnished

24
00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:24.840
<v Speaker 1>Sniper Elite relicence Resistance I got to play. I think

25
00:01:24.879 --> 00:01:29.120
<v Speaker 1>what's probably gonna be my final run through of the

26
00:01:29.159 --> 00:01:33.079
<v Speaker 1>most I want to get through on Tales of Iron two.

27
00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:36.359
<v Speaker 1>And I'm sorry I said the wrong name of the

28
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:42.120
<v Speaker 1>game last week, So I'm sorry to the devs for

29
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:45.359
<v Speaker 1>giving it the wrong name. But it is Tales of

30
00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:49.239
<v Speaker 1>Iron two. I'll talk about that, and then we will

31
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:51.959
<v Speaker 1>talk about some other things. Nintendo gave hints at what

32
00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:55.359
<v Speaker 1>the switch to my cost, or at least the things

33
00:01:55.359 --> 00:02:00.640
<v Speaker 1>they're considering as to you know, what it's important to

34
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:03.239
<v Speaker 1>them when they're looking at the price. We'll talk about

35
00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:06.560
<v Speaker 1>that and a few other things right after this, all right,

36
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:11.400
<v Speaker 1>So let's go ahead really quick and get the other

37
00:02:11.479 --> 00:02:15.599
<v Speaker 1>stuff out of the way here, the whole the housekeeping

<v Speaker 1>time it's been Mondays around nine or so pm Eastern,

48
00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:54.719
<v Speaker 1>but sometimes I have to change it because of when

49
00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:58.960
<v Speaker 1>we I have overtime for that day, but been trying

50
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:00.719
<v Speaker 1>to kind of at least keep it on Mondays for

51
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:03.479
<v Speaker 1>sure for everybody. The podcast comes out a little bit

52
00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:07.400
<v Speaker 1>later than doing on YouTube where it comes out immediately afterwards,

53
00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:11.120
<v Speaker 1>but definitely you can go check it out later on

00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:22.120
<v Speaker 1>you like other things that are not just video games.

58
00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:25.960
<v Speaker 1>We got an anime show called Talking Cafe, which you

59
00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:29.719
<v Speaker 1>can go check out. They review all of the well

60
00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:32.599
<v Speaker 1>not everything, but the shows that they keep up with

61
00:03:33.039 --> 00:03:37.199
<v Speaker 1>each week that are weekly for the anime, and they

62
00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:39.719
<v Speaker 1>have you know, three or four different guys that rotate

63
00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:42.120
<v Speaker 1>talk about their shows. So if you like watching the

64
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:45.639
<v Speaker 1>weekly anime, there's plenty of good ones from this season too.

65
00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:48.319
<v Speaker 1>They're talking about those, and also the movies and TV

66
00:03:48.439 --> 00:03:51.599
<v Speaker 1>shows around your broadcasting. They do a great job keeping

67
00:03:51.639 --> 00:03:53.400
<v Speaker 1>up with all that pretty much, the new movies, the

68
00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:55.719
<v Speaker 1>new TV. Well, the TV shows a little bit take longer,

69
00:03:55.719 --> 00:03:59.719
<v Speaker 1>but the movies they come out that next couple of days,

70
00:03:59.719 --> 00:04:02.560
<v Speaker 1>they were nobody reviewing it, so they do an awesome job.

71
00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:04.719
<v Speaker 1>You like keeping up with the entertainment side of things,

72
00:04:05.080 --> 00:04:07.639
<v Speaker 1>go check them out as well. Of course they're on podcasts,

73
00:04:07.800 --> 00:04:10.800
<v Speaker 1>just follow find their shows and you can subscribe there too.

74
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:15.319
<v Speaker 1>So all right, that's enough with the housekeeping. Let's go

75
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:18.680
<v Speaker 1>ahead and get into the video games here. Even though

76
00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:22.040
<v Speaker 1>this is not this is probably like the lightest week

77
00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:24.519
<v Speaker 1>on news we've had in a while, which is kind

78
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:28.399
<v Speaker 1>of interesting, but still got a few things, So let's

79
00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:31.000
<v Speaker 1>go ahead and talk about our video games here. So

80
00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:33.759
<v Speaker 1>you finished Snapper Elite with Resistance.

81
00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:37.560
<v Speaker 2>Yep, finish it with the ends. It is what it is,

82
00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:40.759
<v Speaker 2>you know, about eight missions of like fairly big areas

83
00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:42.720
<v Speaker 2>and then the last mission is like a really stupid,

84
00:04:43.079 --> 00:04:46.160
<v Speaker 2>very short chase that lasts a minute, you know.

85
00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:48.399
<v Speaker 1>What.

86
00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:52.480
<v Speaker 2>It has some annoying problems though with co op where

87
00:04:52.519 --> 00:04:56.240
<v Speaker 2>like so collectibles are shared between me and him, so

88
00:04:56.240 --> 00:04:58.360
<v Speaker 2>if I pick something up in my like, if I

89
00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:01.800
<v Speaker 2>pick something up, it counts to them. Also, that's cool

90
00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:05.040
<v Speaker 2>except for the work benches, which don't count at all,

91
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:07.680
<v Speaker 2>even though it says he picked him up, so he

92
00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:09.959
<v Speaker 2>has access to all the weapons and stuff that you

93
00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:11.680
<v Speaker 2>get from him, but not the actual like it doesn't

94
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:14.439
<v Speaker 2>count for the trophy, so that's kind of annoying. Like

95
00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:19.079
<v Speaker 2>and even in like the main the the like service record,

96
00:05:19.079 --> 00:05:21.680
<v Speaker 2>it will say like, oh, you got three other three

97
00:05:22.519 --> 00:05:24.439
<v Speaker 2>work benches, but he didn't. He has to interact with

98
00:05:24.519 --> 00:05:27.560
<v Speaker 2>him for that for unlock and his like for the trophy.

99
00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:31.079
<v Speaker 2>But yep, it's still good, strip E late.

100
00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:35.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean that's good that at least it uh

101
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:43.600
<v Speaker 1>works for you there, So yeah for being a yeah.

102
00:05:43.040 --> 00:05:44.759
<v Speaker 2>And we're going to replay the levels too and get

103
00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:45.879
<v Speaker 2>all the unlockables and crap.

104
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:46.680
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

105
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:49.040
<v Speaker 2>The only other thing I started messing with a little

106
00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:55.639
<v Speaker 2>is I started looking up seven rebirth mods, so that'll

107
00:05:55.639 --> 00:06:00.480
<v Speaker 2>be fun. Well, a lot of the the ones I'm

108
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:05.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm interested in are like basically eliminating the crafting requirements

109
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:09.000
<v Speaker 2>but that I don't transmit it theater thing or like

110
00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:13.439
<v Speaker 2>giving you good weapons like max status of the weapons

111
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:16.959
<v Speaker 2>as far as the materia and the ability thing.

112
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:20.040
<v Speaker 1>But they're the easier.

113
00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:23.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but there are a whole host of ones that

114
00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:26.560
<v Speaker 2>are like yep, like not nude mods per se, but

115
00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:33.160
<v Speaker 2>like removing the skirt from like Erith's swimsuit costume, or

116
00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:35.759
<v Speaker 2>like there was one that was like a wet skin

117
00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:38.600
<v Speaker 2>mod for Tifa, And I said, you you people have

118
00:06:38.680 --> 00:06:40.519
<v Speaker 2>too much time on your hands, like you need to

119
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:45.199
<v Speaker 2>get a girlfriend somehow, like for it or I don't know, but.

120
00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:50.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean I don't. I don't know. We need

121
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:54.519
<v Speaker 1>just some people, you know. They just I don't understand

122
00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:57.800
<v Speaker 1>why that's you want to play the game that way.

123
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:01.519
<v Speaker 1>I guess you want to put it out there for

124
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:07.120
<v Speaker 1>other nefarious reasons, perhaps, yeah, make it easier for the

125
00:07:08.360 --> 00:07:13.199
<v Speaker 1>for for other things to be used for that right,

126
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:16.920
<v Speaker 1>which I'm sure is the the main driver of why

127
00:07:16.959 --> 00:07:21.600
<v Speaker 1>they don't. Uh ha. Magushi said, you know, they kind

128
00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:25.360
<v Speaker 1>of attacked him for, you know, kind of saying that

129
00:07:25.399 --> 00:07:27.680
<v Speaker 1>he was trying to like censor people and what they do.

130
00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:30.040
<v Speaker 1>And he's like, look, I understand the importance of ods,

131
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:34.759
<v Speaker 1>just kind of saying, you know, be tasteful about it. Unfortunately,

132
00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:38.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, people are not you got those uh not

133
00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:41.519
<v Speaker 1>going to do that. That's what they've been waiting on

134
00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:44.959
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to the game being on PC. This happened.

135
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:47.120
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, like the one, the other one is like

136
00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:50.920
<v Speaker 2>unlocking all the folio skill points and all the like.

137
00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:55.720
<v Speaker 1>Nodes, having that at the beginning basically, so you.

138
00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:59.240
<v Speaker 2>Don't Yeah, I don't. I don't like that system much

139
00:07:59.240 --> 00:08:02.800
<v Speaker 2>at all actually in the game. And then yeah, I

140
00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:04.800
<v Speaker 2>think I'm in the Golden Saucer right now and that

141
00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:06.040
<v Speaker 2>thing I'm going through it.

142
00:08:06.360 --> 00:08:11.000
<v Speaker 1>But Charley, Yeah, that's what, like, are you talking about

143
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:14.560
<v Speaker 1>the first time in the Saucer. Yeah, that's still a

144
00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:17.439
<v Speaker 1>pretty good ways. Well, I mean you're not having to

145
00:08:17.480 --> 00:08:20.279
<v Speaker 1>do any of the stuff that actually takes up the time,

146
00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:22.319
<v Speaker 1>which is the side quest.

147
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:24.959
<v Speaker 2>And the I'm doing most of those still you're.

148
00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:27.680
<v Speaker 1>Still doing those even though you already experienced that once.

149
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:32.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Okay, I just don't like, I mean, there's a

150
00:08:32.200 --> 00:08:34.159
<v Speaker 2>lot of time wasts and stuff in that game that

151
00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:37.159
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, this could have. You need an editor somewhere

152
00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:39.919
<v Speaker 2>in this thing, like the whole Mount Coral bullshit, Like

153
00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:42.960
<v Speaker 2>getting to the town is fine, but like.

154
00:08:42.960 --> 00:08:45.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the mine, I actually had to use a guide

155
00:08:45.559 --> 00:08:48.440
<v Speaker 1>to get through that because I got lost. Yeah, like

156
00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:50.480
<v Speaker 1>the whole circles thing.

157
00:08:50.799 --> 00:08:53.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's plating up the team where like you know,

158
00:08:53.799 --> 00:08:56.519
<v Speaker 2>Barrett and you you fee like do this whole like

159
00:08:56.639 --> 00:08:59.399
<v Speaker 2>dumb grappling hook bullshit and go down the mine cart

160
00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:01.320
<v Speaker 2>and it's like this, you didn't need to do this

161
00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:04.519
<v Speaker 2>at all, like you did just like ha, gone through

162
00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:07.240
<v Speaker 2>this directly or you know, like this wasn't an the

163
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:09.960
<v Speaker 2>original game. You guys made it for this so well.

164
00:09:10.279 --> 00:09:13.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean it was all about extending it, Like I

165
00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:17.600
<v Speaker 1>get the idea. Just yeah, it felt like like you said,

166
00:09:17.679 --> 00:09:19.799
<v Speaker 1>they didn't they wanted it to give you as much

167
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:23.759
<v Speaker 1>as they possibly could and then kind of just went

168
00:09:23.840 --> 00:09:25.360
<v Speaker 1>like let's just go crazy.

169
00:09:25.840 --> 00:09:28.679
<v Speaker 2>All right, right, and I'm thinking about picking up a

170
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:30.399
<v Speaker 2>copy of Zeno Gear soon.

171
00:09:31.080 --> 00:09:31.399
<v Speaker 1>All right.

172
00:09:32.240 --> 00:09:35.480
<v Speaker 2>I never played before, but yeah, I've heard one of

173
00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:37.159
<v Speaker 2>the better RPGs for the PS one.

174
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:39.679
<v Speaker 1>So all right. I was surprised. I thought you would

175
00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:40.200
<v Speaker 1>have had that of it.

176
00:09:40.679 --> 00:09:43.080
<v Speaker 2>No, I never played it. A lot of the square

177
00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:45.159
<v Speaker 2>stuff can never never played back in the day, like

178
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:46.519
<v Speaker 2>Threads of Fate.

179
00:09:47.399 --> 00:09:49.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there's a lot of that stuff that I never

180
00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:50.559
<v Speaker 1>played either.

181
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:52.559
<v Speaker 2>I played some of it, and I don't like, you know,

182
00:09:52.600 --> 00:09:54.240
<v Speaker 2>I played Air Guys and the guy played that.

183
00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:59.360
<v Speaker 1>But all right, I guess I will talk about the

184
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.919
<v Speaker 1>one game I've been playing, Tels of Iron two. It

185
00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:08.200
<v Speaker 1>is very much a sequel to the first game, which

186
00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:11.039
<v Speaker 1>I talked about on here too, just like discovering in

187
00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:14.080
<v Speaker 1>that January period where I didn't have a game that

188
00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:17.120
<v Speaker 1>I was really playing and talking about how I liked it,

189
00:10:17.159 --> 00:10:22.399
<v Speaker 1>and I was hoping that I could perhaps review this game. Basically,

190
00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:25.039
<v Speaker 1>it's just kind of like they decided to let's make

191
00:10:25.080 --> 00:10:31.799
<v Speaker 1>it bigger and not better for everything. I don't really

192
00:10:31.919 --> 00:10:36.600
<v Speaker 1>understand why. For me, this is still an indie title

193
00:10:36.879 --> 00:10:40.919
<v Speaker 1>and I don't need it to be this. They made

194
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:43.519
<v Speaker 1>it like twice the side. So like the first game

195
00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:46.960
<v Speaker 1>was like eight to ten hours, this game is sixteen

196
00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:50.679
<v Speaker 1>to twenty hours, depending on how much of the extra

197
00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:53.480
<v Speaker 1>stuff you do. And it's just like I didn't really

198
00:10:53.559 --> 00:10:58.200
<v Speaker 1>need that, so, you know, I would have preferred and

199
00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:01.440
<v Speaker 1>like I didn't really need them to, oh, let me

200
00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:05.759
<v Speaker 1>make the base and do put things into the base,

201
00:11:06.159 --> 00:11:10.919
<v Speaker 1>and I then have to, you know, keep up keeping

202
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:15.080
<v Speaker 1>the smithy and the chef and all this stuff, and

203
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:20.240
<v Speaker 1>like the crafting got like overloaded, and I would have

204
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:23.519
<v Speaker 1>been fine with just you know, make the combat, do

205
00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:25.799
<v Speaker 1>add more things to the combat, just to you know,

206
00:11:25.960 --> 00:11:28.639
<v Speaker 1>make it to where it's not the same. You can

207
00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:32.759
<v Speaker 1>make the world bigger if you want. There is fast travel, thankfully,

208
00:11:32.879 --> 00:11:37.679
<v Speaker 1>which there's like signposts that you have to find throughout

209
00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:41.759
<v Speaker 1>the world and if they're not working, you basically have

210
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:45.159
<v Speaker 1>to make them work and so that you can use

211
00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:50.799
<v Speaker 1>fast travel and reverse yeah, kind of like that. Essentially

212
00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:53.879
<v Speaker 1>you have to like rebuild it so that you can

213
00:11:53.919 --> 00:11:58.440
<v Speaker 1>then use it. It's it works well.

214
00:11:58.919 --> 00:11:59.039
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

215
00:11:59.159 --> 00:12:02.679
<v Speaker 1>The combat is was obviously a main draw from the

216
00:12:02.679 --> 00:12:08.879
<v Speaker 1>first game, and they nailed that again here it's it's Souls,

217
00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:13.519
<v Speaker 1>except you know there's obviously there's way more say points.

218
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:16.480
<v Speaker 1>It's not like Souls where you die and all your

219
00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:20.080
<v Speaker 1>stuff is gone and you have to go back to

220
00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:23.639
<v Speaker 1>that section. Like, it's not exactly like that. It just

221
00:12:23.720 --> 00:12:28.360
<v Speaker 1>has like the brutal combat where you know you kind

222
00:12:28.360 --> 00:12:31.919
<v Speaker 1>of have to know window perry and wind to dodge,

223
00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:34.279
<v Speaker 1>and it does tell you it has a little yellow

224
00:12:34.320 --> 00:12:36.799
<v Speaker 1>and red markers, but there's times where they don't tell

225
00:12:36.840 --> 00:12:38.960
<v Speaker 1>you and you can obviously put it on a harder

226
00:12:38.960 --> 00:12:40.960
<v Speaker 1>difficulty if you don't want to tell you at all

227
00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:43.919
<v Speaker 1>and you want to like be guessing. But the first

228
00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:45.960
<v Speaker 1>couple of bosses I had to it took me a

229
00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:51.799
<v Speaker 1>while to figure out, like the timing window, and it's

230
00:12:51.919 --> 00:12:56.440
<v Speaker 1>actually not it has a nice timing window. It's not

231
00:12:56.480 --> 00:12:59.320
<v Speaker 1>a terrible It's like not that hard to figure out.

232
00:12:59.360 --> 00:13:03.080
<v Speaker 1>It's just I figured out that it's like, okay, block

233
00:13:03.480 --> 00:13:07.159
<v Speaker 1>is block for certain things, and it actually wants you

234
00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:12.039
<v Speaker 1>to parry, which is you know, both of the triggers

235
00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:14.279
<v Speaker 1>or I use the tabs because it's a lot easier

236
00:13:14.759 --> 00:13:18.600
<v Speaker 1>to do it that way. Uh, I like using you know,

237
00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:20.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm playing on Xbox, so I like using LB and

238
00:13:21.039 --> 00:13:26.679
<v Speaker 1>RB instead of the LT and RT, which it defaults

239
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:29.639
<v Speaker 1>to the triggers. Just because I've always had this thing

240
00:13:29.679 --> 00:13:34.960
<v Speaker 1>of like I remember on was it on PlayStation, I

241
00:13:35.159 --> 00:13:37.799
<v Speaker 1>just felt weird, like thinking the triggers are gonna fall

242
00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:40.559
<v Speaker 1>off playing like the WW games where you're like constantly

243
00:13:40.600 --> 00:13:43.039
<v Speaker 1>wrestling all the time. So like when it came out

244
00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:45.519
<v Speaker 1>with the TAZ where I feel like there's more security

245
00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:50.840
<v Speaker 1>in uh, they're not going anywhere. So I'm just kind

246
00:13:50.840 --> 00:13:53.879
<v Speaker 1>of like, all right, I'll I'll just move into this,

247
00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:57.960
<v Speaker 1>but the story is it's still you know, hey, we're

248
00:13:57.960 --> 00:14:03.279
<v Speaker 1>doing Game of Thrones with rats and frogs and you know,

249
00:14:03.960 --> 00:14:11.159
<v Speaker 1>dragons and whatever, but without obviously all that drama and stuff.

250
00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:14.080
<v Speaker 1>It has sort of a setting and it is a

251
00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:17.000
<v Speaker 1>different character this time than the first game, so they're

252
00:14:17.039 --> 00:14:19.559
<v Speaker 1>not really they're not continuing it that way. It's just

253
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:23.360
<v Speaker 1>kind of similar things. And again the world's bigger and

254
00:14:23.759 --> 00:14:27.919
<v Speaker 1>more bosses, more side quests, more stuff. So have you

255
00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:31.919
<v Speaker 1>liked the first game? This is twenty bucks twenty yeah,

256
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:35.480
<v Speaker 1>twenty bucks. Again, I think if you loved the first game,

257
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:38.159
<v Speaker 1>I definitely would give this a shot. You're gonna like

258
00:14:38.200 --> 00:14:41.360
<v Speaker 1>this one unless you just don't like any of the

259
00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:44.639
<v Speaker 1>stuff that they added, which again I think I still

260
00:14:44.679 --> 00:14:49.000
<v Speaker 1>think for getting what you loved about that game, for

261
00:14:49.080 --> 00:14:53.159
<v Speaker 1>the most part, I still think it's worth what it is.

262
00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:56.559
<v Speaker 1>And if you like the hard combat games, this is

263
00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:01.519
<v Speaker 1>definitely one for you. And it's it's been fun to

264
00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:05.399
<v Speaker 1>like kind of play a game that I normally play

265
00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:09.360
<v Speaker 1>that much. Ever so it's like challenging myself to do

266
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:12.840
<v Speaker 1>to play something different, which is it's good. Obviously, probably

267
00:15:12.879 --> 00:15:15.039
<v Speaker 1>not a great decision to do it when you're like

268
00:15:15.080 --> 00:15:19.720
<v Speaker 1>in a timing window with reviews, and you know, I'm

269
00:15:19.720 --> 00:15:22.000
<v Speaker 1>glad that I didn't have to like beat embargo for

270
00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:24.519
<v Speaker 1>this because that probably wouldn't have been great for me

271
00:15:25.120 --> 00:15:30.879
<v Speaker 1>frustration wise. But still it's I think even if you're

272
00:15:30.919 --> 00:15:34.000
<v Speaker 1>not like the biggest Souls fan, if the world and

273
00:15:34.120 --> 00:15:37.000
<v Speaker 1>the all the other stuff I intrigue you, this might

274
00:15:37.039 --> 00:15:39.440
<v Speaker 1>be one to kind of check out and maybe ease

275
00:15:39.519 --> 00:15:44.360
<v Speaker 1>you in to how that combat works or whatever. So yeah,

276
00:15:44.519 --> 00:15:47.600
<v Speaker 1>definitely worth checking out for those that like the first

277
00:15:47.639 --> 00:15:50.679
<v Speaker 1>game or might be in my indie games and definitely

278
00:15:50.679 --> 00:15:55.799
<v Speaker 1>want to do that. I think next week. Technically the

279
00:15:55.799 --> 00:15:58.240
<v Speaker 1>embargos after next week, so I have to look and

280
00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:00.159
<v Speaker 1>see if I can actually talk about it next week.

281
00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:03.320
<v Speaker 1>The embarger for the game I can't talk about it's

282
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:07.279
<v Speaker 1>like the twentieth, so it maybe a few weeks until

283
00:16:07.279 --> 00:16:11.320
<v Speaker 1>I can talk about that game per se. But it's

284
00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:15.720
<v Speaker 1>definitely one we have both said that we're looking forward to.

285
00:16:16.159 --> 00:16:20.799
<v Speaker 1>That's all I can say. So, yeah, that's it for

286
00:16:20.960 --> 00:16:23.960
<v Speaker 1>the games we're playing here. Let's go ahead and get

287
00:16:23.960 --> 00:16:30.240
<v Speaker 1>into the news. Talking about news here we mentioned it.

288
00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:35.600
<v Speaker 1>There's not a whole lot from Sony's end about why

289
00:16:35.799 --> 00:16:41.039
<v Speaker 1>Playsession Network went down, and then also like why it

290
00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:44.559
<v Speaker 1>was down for that long except for what I'm saying, it

291
00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:49.879
<v Speaker 1>was an operational issue and that's it, right, eighteen hours.

292
00:16:50.039 --> 00:16:53.559
<v Speaker 1>It's not the what was it three months that time?

293
00:16:53.639 --> 00:16:56.000
<v Speaker 1>And like way back in the day they did it

294
00:16:56.039 --> 00:17:02.440
<v Speaker 1>went down. Yes, yeah, it wasn't that, but it also

295
00:17:02.559 --> 00:17:06.720
<v Speaker 1>wasn't a few hours either. It was definitely felt by people, right,

296
00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:09.559
<v Speaker 1>lots of anger online.

297
00:17:09.880 --> 00:17:13.480
<v Speaker 2>And gamers being anger. Now you're just fucking crazy.

298
00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:18.000
<v Speaker 1>Uh. That's the time where I was like people complaining,

299
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:23.200
<v Speaker 1>maybe we do need to touch grass because you know, hey,

300
00:17:23.240 --> 00:17:26.799
<v Speaker 1>go outside, do something, go find things to do. Uh,

301
00:17:26.839 --> 00:17:29.799
<v Speaker 1>you know, I don't know. Uh see, y'all folks that

302
00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:33.720
<v Speaker 1>that that have multiple games are multiple systems, like me,

303
00:17:33.839 --> 00:17:36.680
<v Speaker 1>you could just go play your Xbox instead, or play

304
00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:39.640
<v Speaker 1>your Switch or whatever. And so then obviously if you're

305
00:17:39.640 --> 00:17:43.400
<v Speaker 1>wanting to play that Mold Monster Hunter Wild's beta, that

306
00:17:43.559 --> 00:17:47.160
<v Speaker 1>definitely affected you. So you know, I'm sorry for those

307
00:17:47.240 --> 00:17:49.640
<v Speaker 1>that that had to deal with not being able to

308
00:17:49.640 --> 00:17:53.960
<v Speaker 1>play your with your friends on that because considering what

309
00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:57.279
<v Speaker 1>we can we're in or we're in. Uh probably maybe

310
00:17:57.279 --> 00:17:58.960
<v Speaker 1>perhaps a lot of your friends were watching the super

311
00:17:59.000 --> 00:18:01.279
<v Speaker 1>Bowl on Sunday and you weren't going to have that

312
00:18:01.319 --> 00:18:04.759
<v Speaker 1>opportunity on Sunday to play or hang out, but they

313
00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:08.200
<v Speaker 1>are extending that beta due to the PSN being down,

314
00:18:08.400 --> 00:18:12.759
<v Speaker 1>So that's good on Capcom's part. I know you said

315
00:18:12.759 --> 00:18:15.480
<v Speaker 1>you were trying to play a game during this. Did

316
00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:19.799
<v Speaker 1>you see any of the the crazy upset people online?

317
00:18:19.839 --> 00:18:22.000
<v Speaker 2>No? I just kind of like log in and then

318
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:25.000
<v Speaker 2>both games kind of bombed out. And then I was

319
00:18:25.039 --> 00:18:27.759
<v Speaker 2>like I looked online and I was like okay, and

320
00:18:27.880 --> 00:18:31.240
<v Speaker 2>like I personally I could like I could go online,

321
00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:33.279
<v Speaker 2>but I couldn't actually do anything like might you know

322
00:18:33.319 --> 00:18:36.039
<v Speaker 2>the little said it was like appearing offline and then

323
00:18:36.039 --> 00:18:37.759
<v Speaker 2>I flipped it to online. I was like, I didn't

324
00:18:37.880 --> 00:18:40.440
<v Speaker 2>set that, and then like it would be like, okay,

325
00:18:40.440 --> 00:18:42.759
<v Speaker 2>you're online, but I just, you know, it's just like okay.

326
00:18:42.759 --> 00:18:45.880
<v Speaker 2>But like I try to like play Assassin Speed Valhalla

327
00:18:46.039 --> 00:18:47.920
<v Speaker 2>like an online part of that kind of and it

328
00:18:47.920 --> 00:18:50.920
<v Speaker 2>would be like, yeah, there's no server or like online,

329
00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:54.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, there's something wrong, And I was like, Okay,

330
00:18:54.720 --> 00:18:55.519
<v Speaker 2>that's fine.

331
00:18:55.640 --> 00:18:57.680
<v Speaker 1>I can just come back to it later. Like it

332
00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:01.240
<v Speaker 1>ain't a huge deal. Yeah, I mean the problem is

333
00:19:01.279 --> 00:19:08.000
<v Speaker 1>that you know, unfortunately, unfortunately, uh, we're like having to

334
00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:10.839
<v Speaker 1>deal with this stuff just suddenly happening, you know, right,

335
00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:14.480
<v Speaker 1>and so it's one of those things where like you

336
00:19:14.519 --> 00:19:16.359
<v Speaker 1>can't really do anything about it. You just kind of

337
00:19:16.359 --> 00:19:19.440
<v Speaker 1>gotta like keep dealing with it, and then all of

338
00:19:19.480 --> 00:19:22.240
<v Speaker 1>a sudden, it keeps going longer and longer. You're like, okay,

339
00:19:22.240 --> 00:19:24.240
<v Speaker 1>did they get hit by a d D S D

340
00:19:24.319 --> 00:19:28.440
<v Speaker 1>d OS attack like before? And nobody's doing anything about

341
00:19:28.440 --> 00:19:30.960
<v Speaker 1>it or saying anything about it, you know.

342
00:19:31.160 --> 00:19:34.599
<v Speaker 2>And I don't know if you saw the MVG put

343
00:19:34.640 --> 00:19:37.240
<v Speaker 2>up a video about like this is a problem with

344
00:19:37.319 --> 00:19:40.839
<v Speaker 2>digital only consoles or you know, like the whole because

345
00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:43.240
<v Speaker 2>like you do you even have a PS high with

346
00:19:43.240 --> 00:19:43.759
<v Speaker 2>a discrive?

347
00:19:44.480 --> 00:19:45.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, mine has the discribe.

348
00:19:45.960 --> 00:19:47.720
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I mean you do, but young here's a PS

349
00:19:47.759 --> 00:19:48.759
<v Speaker 2>five pro and he doesn't.

350
00:19:49.079 --> 00:19:51.759
<v Speaker 1>So it's like, oh he didn't get the disc no

351
00:19:52.319 --> 00:19:53.319
<v Speaker 1>with okay.

352
00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:55.359
<v Speaker 2>So it's like, okay, what does he do because like,

353
00:19:55.400 --> 00:19:59.319
<v Speaker 2>technically I'm signed into it, like technically my PS five

354
00:19:59.599 --> 00:20:02.599
<v Speaker 2>like I sai, is it the primary one? Mm hmm,

355
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:05.960
<v Speaker 2>So he couldn't, like I don't know if he did, thankfully,

356
00:20:06.039 --> 00:20:07.880
<v Speaker 2>but even if he wanted to, he couldn't play any games.

357
00:20:08.960 --> 00:20:12.160
<v Speaker 1>So wasn't that the fix though that apparently if you're

358
00:20:12.319 --> 00:20:14.880
<v Speaker 1>signed in as the primary, oh, because you don't own

359
00:20:14.920 --> 00:20:18.799
<v Speaker 1>the game, so you couldn't, right, yeah, but if you

360
00:20:18.799 --> 00:20:21.200
<v Speaker 1>would be, you would have been able to play anything

361
00:20:21.240 --> 00:20:24.559
<v Speaker 1>you owned as long as it was the primary. That

362
00:20:24.680 --> 00:20:26.960
<v Speaker 1>was the problem with Sony. People don't know that you

363
00:20:27.039 --> 00:20:29.079
<v Speaker 1>have to make your console the primary order.

364
00:20:29.200 --> 00:20:31.599
<v Speaker 2>But like he couldn't, like even if he wanted to,

365
00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:34.799
<v Speaker 2>he couldn't make his PS five back to the primary.

366
00:20:34.359 --> 00:20:36.720
<v Speaker 1>One, Like right, yeah, yeah, he can't because you have

367
00:20:36.759 --> 00:20:38.759
<v Speaker 1>to be online to do that, right, So.

368
00:20:38.759 --> 00:20:40.640
<v Speaker 2>He was I mean he didn't do it, or he

369
00:20:40.640 --> 00:20:43.839
<v Speaker 2>didn't complain or anything, but he had have been screwed.

370
00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:49.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So it's like one of those things where what

371
00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:53.559
<v Speaker 1>can you really do outside of just okay, now we're stuck.

372
00:20:54.319 --> 00:20:57.640
<v Speaker 1>And I kind of understand people's frustation, but this is

373
00:20:57.720 --> 00:21:00.559
<v Speaker 1>CASSO kind of like when your power goes out, not

374
00:21:00.599 --> 00:21:02.319
<v Speaker 1>a whole lot you can do. You got to keep waiting.

375
00:21:02.960 --> 00:21:05.680
<v Speaker 1>And then the people that are like so entitled that

376
00:21:05.759 --> 00:21:09.000
<v Speaker 1>they think that you know, Sony owes them a whole

377
00:21:09.039 --> 00:21:13.039
<v Speaker 1>month or a whole year of PSN for free, because I.

378
00:21:13.000 --> 00:21:17.200
<v Speaker 2>Mean they're given five days. I mean, if they wanted

379
00:21:17.240 --> 00:21:19.720
<v Speaker 2>you they could give like everyone affected, like you know,

380
00:21:20.279 --> 00:21:23.000
<v Speaker 2>five bucks in PSN credit or ten bucks or whatever

381
00:21:23.359 --> 00:21:26.519
<v Speaker 2>like other than that, screw yourself.

382
00:21:26.680 --> 00:21:28.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's the same thing, Like, okay, they give you

383
00:21:28.880 --> 00:21:31.880
<v Speaker 1>credit for the day they lost whatever it was.

384
00:21:33.799 --> 00:21:35.880
<v Speaker 2>Five is kind of generous for them. So I was

385
00:21:35.920 --> 00:21:36.920
<v Speaker 2>kind of surprised by that.

386
00:21:37.240 --> 00:21:40.000
<v Speaker 1>Exactly because they really just owed them a day because

387
00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:44.000
<v Speaker 1>that's all it was. You know, look, not not defending

388
00:21:44.039 --> 00:21:47.640
<v Speaker 1>corporations or whatever, but it's like if this was a look,

389
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:49.720
<v Speaker 1>we don't they're not going to come out and say

390
00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:54.720
<v Speaker 1>exactly what happened, right, somebody goof and the certificate.

391
00:21:55.599 --> 00:21:57.880
<v Speaker 2>No, Bob pulled the cord out accidentally when he left

392
00:21:57.880 --> 00:22:01.720
<v Speaker 2>for the day in the office.

393
00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Like you know what happened there. Just it's one of

394
00:22:04.200 --> 00:22:07.200
<v Speaker 1>those like weird things that you're going, Okay, this is

395
00:22:07.279 --> 00:22:10.799
<v Speaker 1>why maybe you don't need to push the PlayStation Network

396
00:22:10.880 --> 00:22:14.279
<v Speaker 1>signing thing on the PC games because imagine if all

397
00:22:14.319 --> 00:22:17.119
<v Speaker 1>those other PC games that have it taken off now

398
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:19.519
<v Speaker 1>you're still having to sign in, you wouldn't have been

399
00:22:19.519 --> 00:22:20.559
<v Speaker 1>able to use the game.

400
00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:23.720
<v Speaker 2>All right, I think you can still use it technically,

401
00:22:23.880 --> 00:22:25.319
<v Speaker 2>just can't like it.

402
00:22:25.599 --> 00:22:30.279
<v Speaker 1>But but that was the point was why they couldn't. Yeah,

403
00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:34.079
<v Speaker 1>the problem with held Diversary was people got mad because

404
00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:37.200
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden they can't they can't use it right.

405
00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:42.079
<v Speaker 1>For me, it's just I know people are going to say, well, X,

406
00:22:42.119 --> 00:22:45.039
<v Speaker 1>we didn't have this problem. It's like, well, you never know,

407
00:22:45.200 --> 00:22:47.559
<v Speaker 1>but it does make you worry about that all digital

408
00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:51.319
<v Speaker 1>future that we keep running to. And of course the

409
00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:56.000
<v Speaker 1>physical only people were just absolutely letting everyone else have

410
00:22:56.119 --> 00:22:58.960
<v Speaker 1>it during this of like, hey, this is why you

411
00:22:59.000 --> 00:23:01.279
<v Speaker 1>buy a physical this by physically.

412
00:23:01.079 --> 00:23:05.119
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, there's some shitty game stop like their Twitter

413
00:23:05.160 --> 00:23:06.680
<v Speaker 2>put up the post like oh this is what Yeah,

414
00:23:06.720 --> 00:23:08.680
<v Speaker 2>but wait, this is why I bet physical games.

415
00:23:09.359 --> 00:23:13.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I bet you're wanting physical games now, and.

416
00:23:13.000 --> 00:23:15.200
<v Speaker 2>Then finding back with the picture of the game stop

417
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:17.119
<v Speaker 2>full of funk upops, It's like, what you mean like

418
00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:21.279
<v Speaker 2>these like yeah, I mean games barely sells games anymore

419
00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:21.920
<v Speaker 2>as it is.

420
00:23:21.880 --> 00:23:25.960
<v Speaker 1>So exactly. They really shouldn't be poking the bear on

421
00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:29.920
<v Speaker 1>that because they're the ones that look bad. I know

422
00:23:30.039 --> 00:23:34.440
<v Speaker 1>that the individual stores don't control you know, the gamestock

423
00:23:34.480 --> 00:23:37.799
<v Speaker 1>corporate told them what to put in the sore, but still,

424
00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:41.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's you. You aren't doing yourself any favors

425
00:23:41.119 --> 00:23:44.200
<v Speaker 1>there you're just waiting. You're you're essentially just waiting to

426
00:23:44.200 --> 00:23:49.559
<v Speaker 1>get attacked. Yeah, on that, But hopefully this doesn't happen again,

427
00:23:50.480 --> 00:23:53.559
<v Speaker 1>That's all we can say, and hopefully those that did

428
00:23:53.599 --> 00:23:56.920
<v Speaker 1>go through it now, No, go make your ps. I'm

429
00:23:56.960 --> 00:23:59.480
<v Speaker 1>actually got to think about that now of like go

430
00:23:59.599 --> 00:24:01.799
<v Speaker 1>make up PlayStation in the primary, even though I don't need.

431
00:24:01.920 --> 00:24:04.000
<v Speaker 1>I think that's the main problem too, is most people

432
00:24:04.119 --> 00:24:06.640
<v Speaker 1>that's the only PlayStation they have, so you don't think

433
00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:09.599
<v Speaker 1>about needing to do that at all. You just hey,

434
00:24:09.640 --> 00:24:11.960
<v Speaker 1>I just turn it on. It's the only one I got.

435
00:24:12.480 --> 00:24:15.079
<v Speaker 1>It is what it is. And then it's like, oh no,

436
00:24:15.119 --> 00:24:18.480
<v Speaker 1>I have to actually go and do this in order

437
00:24:18.519 --> 00:24:20.680
<v Speaker 1>so it doesn't have to read the licenses or whatever.

438
00:24:20.920 --> 00:24:24.720
<v Speaker 1>And that is really annoying because I mean that makes

439
00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:28.279
<v Speaker 1>it to where again, this this thing we keep rushing

440
00:24:28.319 --> 00:24:31.359
<v Speaker 1>to of like at any moment, they can trigger that

441
00:24:32.039 --> 00:24:34.960
<v Speaker 1>and then you're not you can't use your games that

442
00:24:35.000 --> 00:24:40.240
<v Speaker 1>you bought. So that's that's frustrating. But hey, at least

443
00:24:40.359 --> 00:24:44.720
<v Speaker 1>you know Tony is being nice about I guess this

444
00:24:44.759 --> 00:24:48.240
<v Speaker 1>would be yeah to both consumers and devs who've been

445
00:24:48.240 --> 00:24:51.880
<v Speaker 1>complaining about this for a while and Nintendo's well, but

446
00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:56.200
<v Speaker 1>we don't know anything about like whether Nintendo's been doing this,

447
00:24:56.359 --> 00:24:59.119
<v Speaker 1>But there have been a lot of spam games, a

448
00:24:59.119 --> 00:25:02.480
<v Speaker 1>lot of AIG rated games, a lot of copycat games,

449
00:25:03.759 --> 00:25:07.400
<v Speaker 1>especially if a game gets popular like on Steam, like

450
00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:10.480
<v Speaker 1>that the one that Randy and I played a lot

451
00:25:10.599 --> 00:25:13.359
<v Speaker 1>last year, the Supermarket Simulator. All of a sudden, there

452
00:25:13.400 --> 00:25:16.599
<v Speaker 1>was this Supermarket simulator that was like, not the same one,

453
00:25:16.640 --> 00:25:19.680
<v Speaker 1>but it had a similar name, and all of a sudden, oh,

454
00:25:19.839 --> 00:25:23.559
<v Speaker 1>that's on here, and it's like, oh, that's not the

455
00:25:23.599 --> 00:25:26.440
<v Speaker 1>one that you're supposed to be playing, and it has

456
00:25:26.480 --> 00:25:28.680
<v Speaker 1>almost the same name and everything, and it's like that's

457
00:25:28.720 --> 00:25:31.759
<v Speaker 1>taking away from there's people prevordering this game thinking it's

458
00:25:31.759 --> 00:25:34.319
<v Speaker 1>the same one and it's not the same. Thing happened

459
00:25:34.359 --> 00:25:37.240
<v Speaker 1>with that Trading Guard simulator game when it got popular,

460
00:25:37.759 --> 00:25:40.279
<v Speaker 1>and there was like three or four of those that

461
00:25:40.359 --> 00:25:43.400
<v Speaker 1>showed up on PSN. And there's a bunch of other

462
00:25:43.480 --> 00:25:48.200
<v Speaker 1>AI generated games that keep getting like it takes them

463
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:50.960
<v Speaker 1>nothing to make it, but they make money because people

464
00:25:51.000 --> 00:25:54.400
<v Speaker 1>have no idea that it's a copycat, right or or

465
00:25:54.440 --> 00:25:57.759
<v Speaker 1>a fake essentially, like a fake game, and they're spending

466
00:25:57.799 --> 00:26:03.000
<v Speaker 1>money on that, right, and dev started complaining and consumers

467
00:26:03.039 --> 00:26:06.519
<v Speaker 1>are complaining, and finally because IGN did some kind of

468
00:26:06.519 --> 00:26:11.319
<v Speaker 1>investigation on how Nintendo and Sony do their digital stores

469
00:26:12.039 --> 00:26:17.039
<v Speaker 1>and that they're basically like working with very low QA

470
00:26:17.799 --> 00:26:24.160
<v Speaker 1>for that they are underpowered, undermanned, and suffering because of it.

471
00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:27.079
<v Speaker 1>That all of a sudden, one of the company's random

472
00:26:27.119 --> 00:26:30.440
<v Speaker 1>spin games that's been making a lot of these games,

473
00:26:31.000 --> 00:26:33.759
<v Speaker 1>I got a bunch of their games taken down, thankfully,

474
00:26:34.240 --> 00:26:38.359
<v Speaker 1>So it looks like Sony's paying attention to that, saving

475
00:26:38.400 --> 00:26:43.039
<v Speaker 1>people money in buying games that that are most likely suck.

476
00:26:43.960 --> 00:26:46.839
<v Speaker 1>But hopefully they will do a bigger run through on that.

477
00:26:47.319 --> 00:26:48.079
<v Speaker 1>Have you bought a.

478
00:26:49.160 --> 00:26:52.160
<v Speaker 2>No, I always kind of check look before I buy,

479
00:26:52.799 --> 00:26:55.599
<v Speaker 2>and then I don't really take a lot of stuff

480
00:26:55.599 --> 00:26:58.319
<v Speaker 2>on steeming these days anyway. Or you know, the Switch,

481
00:26:58.599 --> 00:27:00.279
<v Speaker 2>so yeah, I'm I.

482
00:27:00.319 --> 00:27:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Feel like Steam it's you know, you.

483
00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:07.319
<v Speaker 2>Get yeah, just because so much crap comes on and

484
00:27:07.319 --> 00:27:08.000
<v Speaker 2>Steam every.

485
00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Every damn day, right exactly.

486
00:27:10.599 --> 00:27:12.720
<v Speaker 2>Uh, you know, the Switch is also pretty bad at that,

487
00:27:12.839 --> 00:27:16.119
<v Speaker 2>like the tso Sony and Xbox kind of had that

488
00:27:16.200 --> 00:27:19.279
<v Speaker 2>problem also, but it's a little it's a little better, Yeah,

489
00:27:19.559 --> 00:27:22.680
<v Speaker 2>some some modicum of q A or you know, but

490
00:27:23.160 --> 00:27:26.799
<v Speaker 2>stuff like that like Mario Tennis, or I think ripoff

491
00:27:26.880 --> 00:27:28.599
<v Speaker 2>on like PSN recently.

492
00:27:28.319 --> 00:27:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Like Nintendo has a Last of Us rip off a

493
00:27:31.279 --> 00:27:36.160
<v Speaker 1>really bad that's there and it's like really.

494
00:27:36.599 --> 00:27:42.400
<v Speaker 2>Coma, you know, no Nintendo seal quality on that thing.

495
00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:48.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, definitely, and they're missing that for sure. One Thankfully,

496
00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:50.799
<v Speaker 1>it's it's not all not all this kind of stuff.

497
00:27:50.799 --> 00:27:54.400
<v Speaker 1>For Sony, there is one interesting one very similar to

498
00:27:54.519 --> 00:27:57.599
<v Speaker 1>like you know how you see it. Did a interview

499
00:27:57.599 --> 00:28:01.160
<v Speaker 1>with kind of funny after he are tired and left Sony.

500
00:28:01.319 --> 00:28:06.000
<v Speaker 1>Ted Price did the same thing and he actually revealed

501
00:28:06.000 --> 00:28:09.839
<v Speaker 1>a kind of cool nuggative information that at one point

502
00:28:10.519 --> 00:28:14.279
<v Speaker 1>they had pitched a resistance for and Sony said no.

503
00:28:15.200 --> 00:28:17.599
<v Speaker 1>And he said that they a lot of people in

504
00:28:17.640 --> 00:28:22.200
<v Speaker 1>the studio had right feelings about like continuing it, and

505
00:28:22.319 --> 00:28:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Sony just shot it down. At that point they were

506
00:28:25.000 --> 00:28:27.880
<v Speaker 1>going in a different direction. I wonder if they would

507
00:28:27.960 --> 00:28:31.319
<v Speaker 1>feel any different now when they have no shooter franchises

508
00:28:31.680 --> 00:28:37.519
<v Speaker 1>and wish they did well they got Destiny, well, I mean, yeah,

509
00:28:37.640 --> 00:28:39.440
<v Speaker 1>that's still existing.

510
00:28:39.519 --> 00:28:42.440
<v Speaker 2>But it's not that's not like a single player game

511
00:28:42.759 --> 00:28:46.799
<v Speaker 2>or you know, right, I don't know they should. I mean,

512
00:28:47.480 --> 00:28:49.720
<v Speaker 2>but I think at the time, like that was a

513
00:28:49.799 --> 00:28:53.119
<v Speaker 2>switch from basically PS three to PS four. Look how

514
00:28:53.160 --> 00:28:54.240
<v Speaker 2>well that kills any thing?

515
00:28:54.359 --> 00:28:54.599
<v Speaker 1>Did?

516
00:28:55.079 --> 00:28:58.480
<v Speaker 2>Like that wasn't great? Right, So I can kind of

517
00:28:58.480 --> 00:29:01.640
<v Speaker 2>see there were reluctance to fund something or you know,

518
00:29:01.880 --> 00:29:05.680
<v Speaker 2>okay that we don't like this is down old franchise or.

519
00:29:06.200 --> 00:29:08.480
<v Speaker 1>Well I think when you got to the last game

520
00:29:08.640 --> 00:29:11.480
<v Speaker 1>the there was a lot of diminishing returns at that point. Yeah.

521
00:29:11.480 --> 00:29:14.200
<v Speaker 2>There the other thing is like Resistance strett except the

522
00:29:14.200 --> 00:29:15.119
<v Speaker 2>World on Fire either.

523
00:29:15.359 --> 00:29:20.359
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, it's but it makes sense from that perspective

524
00:29:20.400 --> 00:29:22.880
<v Speaker 1>of why they shot it down. But it makes you

525
00:29:22.960 --> 00:29:25.440
<v Speaker 1>like kind of go back in hindsight and go, well,

526
00:29:26.200 --> 00:29:28.839
<v Speaker 1>what if they still had the Resistance and what if

527
00:29:29.279 --> 00:29:32.039
<v Speaker 1>they were able to I mean, would they have had

528
00:29:32.119 --> 00:29:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Gorilla or would they have had Horizon if they still

529
00:29:34.640 --> 00:29:38.279
<v Speaker 1>have Resistance, you know, or I'm sorry that's cil Zone.

530
00:29:38.279 --> 00:29:42.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry. Would they have you know, had two different

531
00:29:42.839 --> 00:29:46.079
<v Speaker 1>versions of of Insania, like have the team that works

532
00:29:46.079 --> 00:29:49.119
<v Speaker 1>on Resistance and then have another team that does Spider

533
00:29:49.160 --> 00:29:52.640
<v Speaker 1>Man and all that. Right, how would the studio have

534
00:29:52.759 --> 00:29:55.519
<v Speaker 1>changed or been different at all if they would have

535
00:29:55.599 --> 00:29:59.119
<v Speaker 1>kept it around? But you never know, right, like could

536
00:29:59.160 --> 00:30:02.440
<v Speaker 1>it have been its own franchise where it's like loved,

537
00:30:02.519 --> 00:30:04.839
<v Speaker 1>kind of like Doom where you have the okay, we

538
00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:08.240
<v Speaker 1>lack the story stuff, but there's also the multiplayer to

539
00:30:08.240 --> 00:30:10.960
<v Speaker 1>go play or Call of Duty, right, same kind of

540
00:30:11.160 --> 00:30:13.039
<v Speaker 1>vein where people play for the single player, but then

541
00:30:13.039 --> 00:30:16.400
<v Speaker 1>you're obviously staying there for the zombies and multiplayers. So

542
00:30:17.880 --> 00:30:20.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's a It's one of those things like

543
00:30:20.519 --> 00:30:22.400
<v Speaker 1>it would have been cool if Tim Price got his wish,

544
00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:25.240
<v Speaker 1>but he says like, that's the one game that I

545
00:30:25.240 --> 00:30:27.000
<v Speaker 1>think he said he wanted to work on before he

546
00:30:27.680 --> 00:30:32.240
<v Speaker 1>retired again one more time, and they didn't honor. That

547
00:30:32.359 --> 00:30:35.400
<v Speaker 1>looks like right, so but hey, he got to work

548
00:30:35.400 --> 00:30:38.079
<v Speaker 1>on a ton of other great games, so it's not like,

549
00:30:38.200 --> 00:30:41.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, he didn't have an amazing career as far

550
00:30:41.480 --> 00:30:46.000
<v Speaker 1>as that goes. Did you watch that Capcom showcase thing?

551
00:30:46.720 --> 00:30:50.279
<v Speaker 2>No know what's going on?

552
00:30:51.319 --> 00:30:55.759
<v Speaker 1>Really? I mean, yeah, they had the Monster Hunter thing separate. Honestly,

553
00:30:55.920 --> 00:31:01.119
<v Speaker 1>the the biggest information was about the new on Musha game,

554
00:31:01.880 --> 00:31:06.359
<v Speaker 1>and also that Ani Musha two is getting a remaster

555
00:31:08.119 --> 00:31:14.480
<v Speaker 1>and it's everyone's favorite. Yeah, so it looks it looks

556
00:31:14.519 --> 00:31:19.359
<v Speaker 1>cool like they showed more gameplay for it if they

557
00:31:19.400 --> 00:31:21.519
<v Speaker 1>said they're not going to focus on it being like

558
00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:26.279
<v Speaker 1>brutally difficult. Uh it's so that's you know, we don't

559
00:31:26.319 --> 00:31:27.759
<v Speaker 1>need it's not going to all of a sudden be

560
00:31:27.839 --> 00:31:34.160
<v Speaker 1>likes becoming dark Souls, right, It's it's more about just

561
00:31:34.240 --> 00:31:39.960
<v Speaker 1>we're still going to have the action combat and that's

562
00:31:39.960 --> 00:31:44.359
<v Speaker 1>the important question. Thank god they're not, it seems, of course.

563
00:31:44.480 --> 00:31:47.559
<v Speaker 1>Is for Ani Musha where the sword should have mentioned. Uh,

564
00:31:47.640 --> 00:31:51.039
<v Speaker 1>the they kind of revealed sort of the like story

565
00:31:51.079 --> 00:31:54.759
<v Speaker 1>stuff of why he's he has the sword and how

566
00:31:54.759 --> 00:31:59.640
<v Speaker 1>he's able to control it and everything else, which is

567
00:32:00.400 --> 00:32:03.200
<v Speaker 1>it was neat. I guess we'll kind of have to

568
00:32:03.279 --> 00:32:05.839
<v Speaker 1>find out more is I'm sure when they reveal more

569
00:32:05.839 --> 00:32:08.720
<v Speaker 1>of it later. But at least for like the five

570
00:32:08.759 --> 00:32:11.960
<v Speaker 1>minutes or whatever they showed it was it was pretty interesting,

571
00:32:12.079 --> 00:32:14.839
<v Speaker 1>but it was kind of like the one sort of

572
00:32:15.480 --> 00:32:18.400
<v Speaker 1>big thing to kind of take from it because everything

573
00:32:18.400 --> 00:32:22.319
<v Speaker 1>else was, oh, hey remember this game or that game.

574
00:32:23.599 --> 00:32:25.359
<v Speaker 1>You know you can go buy it on a sale

575
00:32:25.519 --> 00:32:30.720
<v Speaker 1>right now, yeah, and you know this game's still coming.

576
00:32:30.759 --> 00:32:32.799
<v Speaker 1>There was no like big reveal. It's not like they

577
00:32:32.839 --> 00:32:35.839
<v Speaker 1>had some surprise game that they didn't tell you that

578
00:32:36.000 --> 00:32:37.839
<v Speaker 1>was going to be on there. It was still kind

579
00:32:37.839 --> 00:32:43.839
<v Speaker 1>of they elongated it with these like constant sales telling

580
00:32:43.880 --> 00:32:45.799
<v Speaker 1>you that these games are out there that you can buy.

581
00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:49.720
<v Speaker 2>It felt like, yeah, it's called an infomercial.

582
00:32:50.680 --> 00:32:54.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it just honestly felt like we were I'm having

583
00:32:54.319 --> 00:32:57.720
<v Speaker 1>to sit through this infomercial for that, and I was like,

584
00:32:58.000 --> 00:33:00.799
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why they didn't just do it once.

585
00:33:00.920 --> 00:33:03.599
<v Speaker 1>It was like two or three times, and I'm just

586
00:33:03.680 --> 00:33:09.559
<v Speaker 1>like what, but but why is like mostly we're gonna

587
00:33:09.599 --> 00:33:14.279
<v Speaker 1>watch this on demand later. They're not gonna watch that live,

588
00:33:14.640 --> 00:33:17.960
<v Speaker 1>you know. So I mean, I guess, you know, you

589
00:33:18.000 --> 00:33:20.880
<v Speaker 1>could have possibly had people that were there for the

590
00:33:21.039 --> 00:33:25.640
<v Speaker 1>Monster Hunter of it all and then they're they kind

591
00:33:25.680 --> 00:33:30.559
<v Speaker 1>of check in for this stuff. But honestly, yeah, at

592
00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:32.680
<v Speaker 1>least they they gave you more on this one game

593
00:33:32.680 --> 00:33:34.519
<v Speaker 1>that they announced at the Game Awards that we didn't

594
00:33:34.519 --> 00:33:37.720
<v Speaker 1>know it was going to be there, and I'm happy

595
00:33:37.720 --> 00:33:41.079
<v Speaker 1>about that. I was kind of a little bit of

596
00:33:41.240 --> 00:33:44.400
<v Speaker 1>Onisha fans. Just the tank controls obviously kind of pushed

597
00:33:44.440 --> 00:33:44.960
<v Speaker 1>you out of it.

598
00:33:45.599 --> 00:33:49.119
<v Speaker 2>I really like the third one. Actually I played the

599
00:33:49.119 --> 00:33:52.400
<v Speaker 2>first one on the Xbox that Jen Mattini Musha, so

600
00:33:52.480 --> 00:33:54.839
<v Speaker 2>that wasn't like the greatest version, but I stild, I

601
00:33:54.880 --> 00:33:57.119
<v Speaker 2>got beat it at least played a lot of it.

602
00:33:57.559 --> 00:33:57.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

603
00:33:57.799 --> 00:34:01.039
<v Speaker 2>I really like three, two and four sucked.

604
00:34:02.200 --> 00:34:04.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Interesting that they're like remastered too.

605
00:34:05.599 --> 00:34:08.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they can't get They cannot remaster you only three

606
00:34:08.960 --> 00:34:12.079
<v Speaker 2>because they can't get that hot genre no license.

607
00:34:12.079 --> 00:34:21.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah exactly, that's money. Yeah yeah, yeah, go ahead.

608
00:34:21.239 --> 00:34:25.440
<v Speaker 2>Did you ever hear of the Soul controller? No, okay,

609
00:34:25.440 --> 00:34:27.719
<v Speaker 2>it only came. I never used it. I didn't see

610
00:34:27.719 --> 00:34:30.280
<v Speaker 2>in the store a few times. So it was a

611
00:34:31.239 --> 00:34:34.840
<v Speaker 2>motion controlled katana for only Musha three.

612
00:34:35.199 --> 00:34:38.199
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, because it was during the time where like

613
00:34:38.800 --> 00:34:41.239
<v Speaker 1>everybody was doing the motion control.

614
00:34:41.639 --> 00:34:45.960
<v Speaker 2>We know that there's like PS two though, okay crazy,

615
00:34:46.119 --> 00:34:48.280
<v Speaker 2>Remember like the chainsaw controller for as an.

616
00:34:48.199 --> 00:34:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Evil for yes, okay, I remember that.

617
00:34:51.519 --> 00:34:54.400
<v Speaker 2>It basically the same thing except you swung this thing around,

618
00:34:54.599 --> 00:34:58.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, ah to like attack demons and crap.

619
00:34:59.000 --> 00:34:59.320
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

620
00:34:59.719 --> 00:35:02.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah cool, But it's also expensive and like, you know,

621
00:35:02.519 --> 00:35:04.960
<v Speaker 2>like most most utiful stuff back then, barely worked.

622
00:35:06.159 --> 00:35:12.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, definitely. Detect didn't get better until, you know, but yeah,

623
00:35:12.559 --> 00:35:15.920
<v Speaker 1>essentially that's kind of the main draw of it. So

624
00:35:16.119 --> 00:35:19.079
<v Speaker 1>if you want to go back and watch that, or

625
00:35:19.199 --> 00:35:21.480
<v Speaker 1>you really care about Monster Hunter, you want to know

626
00:35:21.639 --> 00:35:24.840
<v Speaker 1>the different things that are kind of new about it,

627
00:35:25.519 --> 00:35:28.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, you might as well just go. Uh, I'm

628
00:35:28.400 --> 00:35:31.679
<v Speaker 1>sure anybody that's hike excited a monster hunter, you're already

629
00:35:31.719 --> 00:35:33.679
<v Speaker 1>going to be trying out that beta. Yo, do you

630
00:35:33.760 --> 00:35:34.480
<v Speaker 1>hunt monsters?

631
00:35:35.840 --> 00:35:36.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

632
00:35:36.199 --> 00:35:39.800
<v Speaker 1>Exactly. But sticking with Capcom for a little bit too,

633
00:35:39.920 --> 00:35:44.239
<v Speaker 1>Resident Evil things here. One is that Resident Evil. I

634
00:35:44.239 --> 00:35:46.440
<v Speaker 1>didn't even know this thing was still on, Like I

635
00:35:46.480 --> 00:35:48.400
<v Speaker 1>thought they would have shut this down a while ago.

636
00:35:49.280 --> 00:35:51.559
<v Speaker 1>But Reside Evil Reverse is going to be shut down

637
00:35:51.599 --> 00:35:56.760
<v Speaker 1>March third and delisted. So therefore, if you bought the

638
00:35:56.800 --> 00:35:59.039
<v Speaker 1>game and the DC or you bought it, you got

639
00:35:59.079 --> 00:36:02.000
<v Speaker 1>it with a village and you've been playing it, just

640
00:36:02.159 --> 00:36:07.840
<v Speaker 1>get ready to know that that is going to be gone. Yeah, okay,

641
00:36:08.480 --> 00:36:10.360
<v Speaker 1>did you you never tried it out or anything?

642
00:36:10.880 --> 00:36:15.599
<v Speaker 2>No, every every online resident with him they tried to

643
00:36:15.639 --> 00:36:19.199
<v Speaker 2>do has been bad. Yeah, people have fondness for that

644
00:36:19.239 --> 00:36:23.719
<v Speaker 2>reallyable too thing on PS two what Revelation whatever the

645
00:36:23.760 --> 00:36:26.719
<v Speaker 2>Bractee thing was, But like, yeah, at the time it

646
00:36:26.800 --> 00:36:29.880
<v Speaker 2>was kind of passable, but like even then, not really.

647
00:36:30.360 --> 00:36:32.719
<v Speaker 2>It's so limited by it being on this console that

648
00:36:32.840 --> 00:36:37.239
<v Speaker 2>like doesn't have built in voice support or like good functionality,

649
00:36:37.280 --> 00:36:37.639
<v Speaker 2>and so.

650
00:36:38.559 --> 00:36:42.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean Uh, if you want to enjoy co

651
00:36:42.920 --> 00:36:46.559
<v Speaker 1>op though you got Resident five and six.

652
00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:48.599
<v Speaker 2>Or I got like Left for Dead, or you know

653
00:36:48.639 --> 00:36:52.079
<v Speaker 2>something that you've built for it, like not some half

654
00:36:52.119 --> 00:36:52.679
<v Speaker 2>half thing.

655
00:36:53.679 --> 00:36:57.280
<v Speaker 1>Well, I mean, the whole point of this is that

656
00:36:57.800 --> 00:37:01.880
<v Speaker 1>before it was Resident six apparently had gotten an SRB

657
00:37:02.079 --> 00:37:06.280
<v Speaker 1>rating for threes X and s like I want to say,

658
00:37:06.280 --> 00:37:08.239
<v Speaker 1>a few weeks ago, and then all of a sudden

659
00:37:08.320 --> 00:37:12.360
<v Speaker 1>somebody found that residuebul five now has a rating as well,

660
00:37:12.440 --> 00:37:15.320
<v Speaker 1>So I guess those games are coming great.

661
00:37:16.440 --> 00:37:17.800
<v Speaker 2>Play that with the ends again.

662
00:37:18.360 --> 00:37:21.039
<v Speaker 1>And also that does not mean that those games will

663
00:37:21.039 --> 00:37:24.960
<v Speaker 1>not get remade, because that happened with four. Yeah, and

664
00:37:25.000 --> 00:37:27.960
<v Speaker 1>then they still remade four. So it just means that

665
00:37:28.000 --> 00:37:30.519
<v Speaker 1>they're making the original games available, which that's good on

666
00:37:30.599 --> 00:37:35.320
<v Speaker 1>Capcom's part, the original games available on modern consoles, and

667
00:37:35.360 --> 00:37:39.599
<v Speaker 1>then we'll see the rumor now is the last one

668
00:37:39.679 --> 00:37:42.480
<v Speaker 1>that I saw was that they're remaking Residueble zero.

669
00:37:43.039 --> 00:37:44.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think I mentioned that last time.

670
00:37:44.960 --> 00:37:49.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so I'm not a huge fan of but you know, sure,

671
00:37:49.199 --> 00:37:53.159
<v Speaker 1>I guess I think it's cool that you can complete

672
00:37:53.159 --> 00:37:56.960
<v Speaker 1>the series, I guess, from zero to four, and then

673
00:37:57.000 --> 00:37:59.920
<v Speaker 1>if they make the story connect more, which they've been

674
00:38:00.079 --> 00:38:02.199
<v Speaker 1>doing with the other ones. Then it's cool.

675
00:38:02.960 --> 00:38:06.599
<v Speaker 2>The problem is zerally sucked and some like bad prequel.

676
00:38:07.159 --> 00:38:09.519
<v Speaker 2>So people want coach Ronica, but at least because at

677
00:38:09.559 --> 00:38:11.239
<v Speaker 2>least it continued the story.

678
00:38:11.840 --> 00:38:14.000
<v Speaker 1>But what if they take out some of the things

679
00:38:14.000 --> 00:38:16.719
<v Speaker 1>that sucked, right, Like, maybe not what they did, like

680
00:38:16.960 --> 00:38:21.159
<v Speaker 1>they lichered three, but like Billy ye take out him.

681
00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:23.599
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if they'll take out the whole character.

682
00:38:23.679 --> 00:38:28.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't know about that, right, you know, well, maybe

683
00:38:28.840 --> 00:38:31.480
<v Speaker 1>they'll make some additions, knowing that they know that it

684
00:38:31.639 --> 00:38:36.000
<v Speaker 1>wasn't that fondly received either. But yeah, credit to them

685
00:38:36.000 --> 00:38:38.639
<v Speaker 1>again for even though it was not the.

686
00:38:38.599 --> 00:38:41.199
<v Speaker 2>Best, you can't pull it off. But again it's just

687
00:38:41.239 --> 00:38:45.440
<v Speaker 2>like like the more like the really unnecessary one, you know,

688
00:38:46.039 --> 00:38:48.920
<v Speaker 2>because coach Ronica is still like older than that and

689
00:38:49.719 --> 00:38:51.480
<v Speaker 2>more deserving of that as well.

690
00:38:51.599 --> 00:38:54.440
<v Speaker 1>So right, well, people probably want to play that because

691
00:38:54.440 --> 00:38:56.199
<v Speaker 1>of the characters that are involved in it as well,

692
00:38:56.360 --> 00:39:00.159
<v Speaker 1>the characters they know instead of uh, you know, kind

693
00:39:00.159 --> 00:39:02.880
<v Speaker 1>of starting with the ones that you do in zero.

694
00:39:03.000 --> 00:39:04.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Rebecca and Billy.

695
00:39:05.559 --> 00:39:10.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So you know a lot of people don't do that, right,

696
00:39:10.760 --> 00:39:12.760
<v Speaker 1>like we saw it with Silent Hill, they started with two.

697
00:39:13.400 --> 00:39:16.000
<v Speaker 1>They didn't just say, Okay, let's try to do this, because,

698
00:39:16.599 --> 00:39:19.199
<v Speaker 1>to be fair to them, they didn't know blueber Team

699
00:39:19.280 --> 00:39:21.320
<v Speaker 1>was going to knock it out of the park, right

700
00:39:21.440 --> 00:39:23.400
<v Speaker 1>they It's like, okay, let's give them the one that

701
00:39:23.480 --> 00:39:28.400
<v Speaker 1>stand alone that you don't need other stuff to play whatever.

702
00:39:28.559 --> 00:39:31.519
<v Speaker 1>And if they don't do well with this, then okay,

703
00:39:31.880 --> 00:39:33.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, we don't have to revisit this again. But

704
00:39:33.840 --> 00:39:35.800
<v Speaker 1>they did, and maybe this will open the door. I

705
00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:37.880
<v Speaker 1>don't know if they're gonna Komo's going to open that

706
00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:41.360
<v Speaker 1>door or not, but I guess we'll see. We know

707
00:39:41.480 --> 00:39:44.719
<v Speaker 1>that Blue Routine's working under stuff, so that's probably gonna

708
00:39:44.719 --> 00:39:49.639
<v Speaker 1>be down the line. But Cavcom seems to understand the

709
00:39:49.719 --> 00:39:52.880
<v Speaker 1>assignment and that they want to kind of like it

710
00:39:52.880 --> 00:39:58.199
<v Speaker 1>seems like retell or conjoin the story more between the games.

711
00:39:58.960 --> 00:40:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that does mean they we're going to get five

712
00:40:00.760 --> 00:40:02.119
<v Speaker 1>and six eventually remade.

713
00:40:02.960 --> 00:40:06.639
<v Speaker 2>I pretty much assume so. But just imagine, you know,

714
00:40:06.760 --> 00:40:09.800
<v Speaker 2>the Pima red and Evel nine next, and then oh

715
00:40:09.880 --> 00:40:12.920
<v Speaker 2>yeah for sure, then go back to the remake well,

716
00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:15.199
<v Speaker 2>and then ten and then another remake.

717
00:40:15.800 --> 00:40:18.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I mean, they love those remakes. They're even going

718
00:40:18.320 --> 00:40:20.440
<v Speaker 1>back to the you know, as we talked about those

719
00:40:20.480 --> 00:40:24.280
<v Speaker 1>old franchises to do them so and you get to

720
00:40:24.320 --> 00:40:31.679
<v Speaker 1>play football. Yeah, game Pass obviously it's that first part

721
00:40:31.719 --> 00:40:34.239
<v Speaker 1>of the month, so they got to reveal Xbox and

722
00:40:34.320 --> 00:40:36.760
<v Speaker 1>Microsoft do the games that are coming. We do know

723
00:40:36.800 --> 00:40:39.320
<v Speaker 1>that a Vowed is coming on February eighteenth. That's the

724
00:40:39.360 --> 00:40:43.679
<v Speaker 1>big first party game. So it's kind of light as

725
00:40:43.719 --> 00:40:48.880
<v Speaker 1>far as new games or new old games really far

726
00:40:48.960 --> 00:40:52.039
<v Speaker 1>cry New Dawns is the one that's around right now.

727
00:40:53.039 --> 00:40:56.440
<v Speaker 1>Mad NFL twenty five not surprising. Basically they always do

728
00:40:56.519 --> 00:40:58.679
<v Speaker 1>this the week of the Super Bowl. They put this

729
00:40:58.800 --> 00:41:02.760
<v Speaker 1>out on game Pass goes of course, you know, gotta

730
00:41:02.920 --> 00:41:04.920
<v Speaker 1>gotta try to make that money as much as possible,

731
00:41:06.639 --> 00:41:08.679
<v Speaker 1>and then everything else is kind of like, okay, this

732
00:41:08.760 --> 00:41:12.320
<v Speaker 1>is now on game Pass Standard. Also, so like i

733
00:41:12.400 --> 00:41:15.840
<v Speaker 1>Uning Chronicle one hundred Heroes now on standard, and now

734
00:41:15.880 --> 00:41:19.880
<v Speaker 1>there's Crabs Treasure, which is a great souls like indies

735
00:41:19.960 --> 00:41:25.039
<v Speaker 1>souls like their that's on standard. Now did you see

736
00:41:25.079 --> 00:41:28.039
<v Speaker 1>the kind of out of nowhere they announced DLC for

737
00:41:28.119 --> 00:41:36.280
<v Speaker 1>Iuding Chronicles Heroes. So yeah, there's like I think three

738
00:41:37.039 --> 00:41:40.199
<v Speaker 1>story DLCs or whatever that they're going to add. So

739
00:41:41.239 --> 00:41:44.400
<v Speaker 1>phudos to them because that came kind of came out,

740
00:41:44.599 --> 00:41:48.119
<v Speaker 1>people were excited about it sort of and then it

741
00:41:48.199 --> 00:41:51.679
<v Speaker 1>didn't well yeah, it did kind of like it was

742
00:41:51.679 --> 00:41:53.840
<v Speaker 1>like there with a whimper. It was. It was kind

743
00:41:53.880 --> 00:41:56.719
<v Speaker 1>of like it was a year of so many great

744
00:41:56.840 --> 00:41:59.559
<v Speaker 1>rp you know, especially the dues of the j that

745
00:41:59.679 --> 00:42:01.360
<v Speaker 1>it's like, and then kind of came out.

746
00:42:01.199 --> 00:42:03.880
<v Speaker 2>And also their reviews were a little shaky, like it

747
00:42:03.920 --> 00:42:07.480
<v Speaker 2>wasn't like it wasn't like Mighty number nine terrible, but

748
00:42:07.559 --> 00:42:10.960
<v Speaker 2>it wasn't like you know, blood Stainards for the Night either,

749
00:42:11.599 --> 00:42:14.599
<v Speaker 2>you know. Yeah, so it's kind of just average or

750
00:42:14.639 --> 00:42:18.639
<v Speaker 2>you know, decent, but nothing nothing like too great.

751
00:42:20.039 --> 00:42:23.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no, definitely. Also, speaking of RPGs, if you haven't

752
00:42:23.599 --> 00:42:26.000
<v Speaker 1>played Tales of a Rise yet, you might want to

753
00:42:26.000 --> 00:42:27.840
<v Speaker 1>get on that, even though you won't finish it before

754
00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:31.119
<v Speaker 1>it gets out of game passed on the fifteenth because

755
00:42:31.159 --> 00:42:31.840
<v Speaker 1>that game.

756
00:42:31.679 --> 00:42:36.320
<v Speaker 2>Is long, right but kind of Marathona.

757
00:42:36.639 --> 00:42:39.119
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you know, take advantage of that discount if you

758
00:42:39.199 --> 00:42:41.880
<v Speaker 1>haven't already. And I would pick it up, man, because

759
00:42:41.920 --> 00:42:46.960
<v Speaker 1>Testual Rise is great, right for sure? So uh, speaking

760
00:42:47.000 --> 00:42:49.360
<v Speaker 1>of more, you know, last week we talked about Force

761
00:42:49.400 --> 00:42:52.559
<v Speaker 1>Horizon five coming to PS five. Well, more games from

762
00:42:52.599 --> 00:42:55.159
<v Speaker 1>the Xbox library kind to PS five. Not that's surprising

763
00:42:55.199 --> 00:42:58.840
<v Speaker 1>really at this point, but the kind of two lesser ones.

764
00:42:59.119 --> 00:43:03.719
<v Speaker 1>I always give Microsoft credit for like really keeping that

765
00:43:03.840 --> 00:43:08.519
<v Speaker 1>strategy game genre, like going uh, and they are going

766
00:43:08.599 --> 00:43:12.199
<v Speaker 1>to bring two of two of those two two of

767
00:43:12.199 --> 00:43:14.599
<v Speaker 1>their like stalwart ones you know from back in the

768
00:43:14.679 --> 00:43:20.199
<v Speaker 1>day to PlayStation five Mythology retold, which that's kind of newer,

769
00:43:20.239 --> 00:43:23.480
<v Speaker 1>that was from last year, and then they're like definitive

770
00:43:23.599 --> 00:43:26.679
<v Speaker 1>edition like remaster range of Empires too, also coming to

771
00:43:26.760 --> 00:43:29.679
<v Speaker 1>PS five. If you love those kind of games, you

772
00:43:29.760 --> 00:43:32.960
<v Speaker 1>can go pay for them on PlayStation five.

773
00:43:33.199 --> 00:43:36.840
<v Speaker 2>Yes, console or games are always are always cool.

774
00:43:37.719 --> 00:43:40.119
<v Speaker 1>They either work or they don't. But you know, these

775
00:43:40.119 --> 00:43:43.960
<v Speaker 1>are pretty well received obviously, I'm sure most people played

776
00:43:43.960 --> 00:43:47.360
<v Speaker 1>them on PC where they were where they're originally, but uh,

777
00:43:48.239 --> 00:43:53.000
<v Speaker 1>this one was interesting, uh to give to you, uh,

778
00:43:53.079 --> 00:43:56.840
<v Speaker 1>since you play these games, I don't really David Rewick,

779
00:43:56.880 --> 00:44:01.239
<v Speaker 1>who obviously lead designer on Diablo Too, yeah, you know,

780
00:44:01.559 --> 00:44:05.800
<v Speaker 1>was a Blizzard for a while. Obviously now with Microsoft

781
00:44:06.079 --> 00:44:08.880
<v Speaker 1>now it is not. Yeah, no it's not, but I

782
00:44:08.880 --> 00:44:12.320
<v Speaker 1>mean he left what after even in the middle of

783
00:44:12.400 --> 00:44:16.840
<v Speaker 1>three If I remember reading, yeah, Jason Starr's book so

784
00:44:17.920 --> 00:44:20.239
<v Speaker 1>he his main thing is that you know, he was taught.

785
00:44:20.320 --> 00:44:22.599
<v Speaker 1>He didn't agree with that video gamer where he talks

786
00:44:22.639 --> 00:44:28.960
<v Speaker 1>about action RPGs reward gamers too quickly and then cheapens

787
00:44:28.960 --> 00:44:33.519
<v Speaker 1>the experience. Obviously. You know Diablo two had a you know,

788
00:44:34.079 --> 00:44:37.280
<v Speaker 1>you had to go a while before you leveled up.

789
00:44:37.639 --> 00:44:40.280
<v Speaker 1>You usually replayed that game quite a bit to get

790
00:44:40.280 --> 00:44:43.280
<v Speaker 1>to where you wanted to be. Right, where do you

791
00:44:43.440 --> 00:44:47.119
<v Speaker 1>sit with that? Do you think that it should take

792
00:44:47.159 --> 00:44:48.960
<v Speaker 1>longer for you to level up because you get to

793
00:44:49.000 --> 00:44:51.239
<v Speaker 1>like level sixty or seventy two quick within like three

794
00:44:51.280 --> 00:44:53.400
<v Speaker 1>or four days, and then there's not a lot for you.

795
00:44:53.400 --> 00:44:55.920
<v Speaker 2>To do or well as far as like Diablo goes,

796
00:44:55.960 --> 00:44:58.400
<v Speaker 2>like I'm still gaining like paraon levels and I'm like

797
00:44:58.960 --> 00:45:02.519
<v Speaker 2>two sixty like three hundred, and that'll be how it

798
00:45:02.519 --> 00:45:04.559
<v Speaker 2>take me like a like a few more months to

799
00:45:04.559 --> 00:45:06.320
<v Speaker 2>do if I want to get all the way maxed out.

800
00:45:06.360 --> 00:45:08.800
<v Speaker 2>And there are people like already there, like they were

801
00:45:08.800 --> 00:45:09.719
<v Speaker 2>there like months ago.

802
00:45:10.039 --> 00:45:12.559
<v Speaker 1>But right, but that's because that's like the only game

803
00:45:12.599 --> 00:45:13.039
<v Speaker 1>they play.

804
00:45:13.280 --> 00:45:17.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they're crazy, so they don't count. I think it's

805
00:45:17.840 --> 00:45:20.159
<v Speaker 2>I don't mind a level level cap per se, but

806
00:45:20.199 --> 00:45:23.000
<v Speaker 2>it's more for me. It's a matter of like especially

807
00:45:23.039 --> 00:45:27.199
<v Speaker 2>with Diapolo, like gear abundance, or I get too much

808
00:45:27.280 --> 00:45:30.599
<v Speaker 2>crappy gear, like if I kill one of the world

809
00:45:30.639 --> 00:45:35.119
<v Speaker 2>bosses or you know, one of the like uh not

810
00:45:35.320 --> 00:45:39.039
<v Speaker 2>tear but uh hate like I forget the name of it.

811
00:45:39.400 --> 00:45:41.440
<v Speaker 2>But basically one of like the dungeon bosses, I get

812
00:45:41.599 --> 00:45:45.880
<v Speaker 2>between like ten and fifteen pieces of gear, and between

813
00:45:45.880 --> 00:45:47.920
<v Speaker 2>ten and fifteen pieces of gear are worthless to me

814
00:45:48.159 --> 00:45:51.559
<v Speaker 2>because not it's not an upgrade at all, So I'm

815
00:45:51.599 --> 00:45:54.880
<v Speaker 2>just selling or trashing most of this crap, so it

816
00:45:54.920 --> 00:45:58.280
<v Speaker 2>becomes very pointless, or it becomes just like this huge

817
00:45:58.320 --> 00:46:02.760
<v Speaker 2>grind's like oh my, my two hundredth run of this dungeon,

818
00:46:02.800 --> 00:46:06.840
<v Speaker 2>I finally got something that's like five more dexter dexterity

819
00:46:06.880 --> 00:46:09.360
<v Speaker 2>points for me or something. But with what be like

820
00:46:09.400 --> 00:46:13.320
<v Speaker 2>there's not still not enough like reforaging or changing of

821
00:46:13.400 --> 00:46:16.119
<v Speaker 2>the attributes or to something, or like there are these

822
00:46:16.239 --> 00:46:20.480
<v Speaker 2>uh what is it, like basically keys the keystones you

823
00:46:20.519 --> 00:46:24.480
<v Speaker 2>can use to like unlock this dungeon. I have eight hundred,

824
00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:27.360
<v Speaker 2>Like that's a lot, Like that is more than you

825
00:46:27.360 --> 00:46:30.000
<v Speaker 2>would ever need in that thing, and I can't combine

826
00:46:30.000 --> 00:46:32.320
<v Speaker 2>them or I can't make a better one, so there's

827
00:46:32.360 --> 00:46:35.679
<v Speaker 2>like rotten inventory forever until I eventually throw them away

828
00:46:36.320 --> 00:46:41.079
<v Speaker 2>like Diago for specifically needs more like combining of stuff.

829
00:46:41.480 --> 00:46:44.280
<v Speaker 2>But that's a problem like most of these, you know,

830
00:46:45.159 --> 00:46:48.119
<v Speaker 2>ar action RPGs, like you get to the end content

831
00:46:48.199 --> 00:46:50.039
<v Speaker 2>and then you just kind of hit a wall because

832
00:46:50.039 --> 00:46:52.199
<v Speaker 2>they don't have enough and content for you to do.

833
00:46:53.320 --> 00:46:56.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it feels like a players a fraternity two kind

834
00:46:56.480 --> 00:46:59.679
<v Speaker 1>of hits is hitting the sweet spot for people you have.

835
00:47:02.079 --> 00:47:06.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, yeah, it's the same same initials, and I

836
00:47:06.519 --> 00:47:10.400
<v Speaker 1>can't think of also because avowed is apparently somehow in

837
00:47:10.480 --> 00:47:14.519
<v Speaker 1>the philip eraternities, but they don't really explain how.

838
00:47:16.199 --> 00:47:19.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, sure, yeah.

839
00:47:18.679 --> 00:47:22.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, I mean they said that. It's just like okay,

840
00:47:22.280 --> 00:47:25.280
<v Speaker 1>I guess right, but.

841
00:47:26.800 --> 00:47:30.400
<v Speaker 2>No one cares much about Pillows of Eternity, so it's like, right, yeah,

842
00:47:30.440 --> 00:47:33.039
<v Speaker 2>that's like how Vagrant Story in Front of Fantasy twelve

843
00:47:33.039 --> 00:47:36.039
<v Speaker 2>are in the same universe technically, but it's like, okay,

844
00:47:36.079 --> 00:47:36.639
<v Speaker 2>who cares.

845
00:47:37.320 --> 00:47:41.039
<v Speaker 1>Vagrant Story is actually well loved and people would love

846
00:47:41.280 --> 00:47:44.960
<v Speaker 1>that to play that game right now on modern consoles,

847
00:47:46.199 --> 00:47:50.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, hey, Square if even even just let people

848
00:47:50.840 --> 00:47:54.960
<v Speaker 1>play it on the the PS plus thing would be great,

849
00:47:56.800 --> 00:47:59.000
<v Speaker 1>that'd be nice, like give us that surprise, you know,

850
00:47:59.840 --> 00:48:03.159
<v Speaker 1>And maybe that's gonna be a drop there, And I

851
00:48:03.239 --> 00:48:06.599
<v Speaker 1>doubt I'm just joking, but you know, that could be

852
00:48:06.639 --> 00:48:11.679
<v Speaker 1>a drop on the upcoming state of play. It's not

853
00:48:11.719 --> 00:48:15.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna happen, but I do think that there's something to

854
00:48:16.000 --> 00:48:21.239
<v Speaker 1>what he's saying right of when you're if you're if

855
00:48:21.239 --> 00:48:23.760
<v Speaker 1>people are maxing out at like in three to four

856
00:48:23.840 --> 00:48:27.039
<v Speaker 1>days and that's all they wanted to do, and they're

857
00:48:27.079 --> 00:48:30.960
<v Speaker 1>beating the story and there's not really a whole lot

858
00:48:31.159 --> 00:48:33.239
<v Speaker 1>reason for them to go back and play it again,

859
00:48:33.920 --> 00:48:36.159
<v Speaker 1>then I mean, I guess if you played it on

860
00:48:36.239 --> 00:48:38.239
<v Speaker 1>game Best, no big deal for you. But if you

861
00:48:38.320 --> 00:48:42.159
<v Speaker 1>actually spent money on buying the game, the whole point

862
00:48:42.159 --> 00:48:44.800
<v Speaker 1>of playing Diablo is to play it over and over,

863
00:48:44.960 --> 00:48:49.199
<v Speaker 1>or any action rpg like that. Yeah, Obviously there's other

864
00:48:49.280 --> 00:48:52.679
<v Speaker 1>action RPGs that are not in that vein that they're

865
00:48:52.679 --> 00:48:55.800
<v Speaker 1>more like actual traditional RPGs. So them leveling you up

866
00:48:55.840 --> 00:48:58.400
<v Speaker 1>quickly isn't really a big deal because that story is

867
00:48:58.480 --> 00:49:02.800
<v Speaker 1>much much longer, right and it has consequence, So you know,

868
00:49:03.400 --> 00:49:06.280
<v Speaker 1>but in the ones that he's talking about, I'm assuming

869
00:49:06.360 --> 00:49:08.920
<v Speaker 1>that are of that ILK. I can kind of see

870
00:49:08.920 --> 00:49:14.559
<v Speaker 1>his point a little bit. But that's also where it's like,

871
00:49:14.559 --> 00:49:18.360
<v Speaker 1>like you said, it's kind of okay. You know, you

872
00:49:18.480 --> 00:49:20.719
<v Speaker 1>probably think that the content you have coming down the

873
00:49:20.760 --> 00:49:22.519
<v Speaker 1>pipeline is going to get people to go back to

874
00:49:22.599 --> 00:49:25.320
<v Speaker 1>the game, similar to like how you do with Wow

875
00:49:25.400 --> 00:49:31.000
<v Speaker 1>every year or whatever. And for Diablo four at least,

876
00:49:31.000 --> 00:49:33.280
<v Speaker 1>it seems like that's not happening.

877
00:49:33.239 --> 00:49:37.400
<v Speaker 2>Well like seasons and stuff. But yeah, I still don't

878
00:49:37.400 --> 00:49:40.079
<v Speaker 2>like the mentality. It's like, oh, play this new content,

879
00:49:40.159 --> 00:49:41.079
<v Speaker 2>create this new character.

880
00:49:41.920 --> 00:49:44.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah that's but then you said they just say, well,

881
00:49:44.760 --> 00:49:47.519
<v Speaker 1>didn't they like make it to where you don't have

882
00:49:47.599 --> 00:49:52.039
<v Speaker 1>to do that or it's mandatory it's mandatory. Wow.

883
00:49:52.079 --> 00:49:54.239
<v Speaker 2>I mean I think for like one season that wasn't mandatory.

884
00:49:54.239 --> 00:49:56.920
<v Speaker 2>I think like season five or something, but like, yeah,

885
00:49:56.920 --> 00:49:59.039
<v Speaker 2>this is a whole new like which season I think

886
00:49:59.039 --> 00:50:01.320
<v Speaker 2>it's called season the or something where they go like

887
00:50:01.360 --> 00:50:04.000
<v Speaker 2>witch Gens and all the other stupid crap and said, yeah,

888
00:50:04.039 --> 00:50:05.360
<v Speaker 2>you want to play that, you have to create a

889
00:50:05.360 --> 00:50:08.400
<v Speaker 2>new character and said, yo, I spent the past six

890
00:50:08.480 --> 00:50:10.920
<v Speaker 2>months built like creating this godlite character.

891
00:50:10.679 --> 00:50:12.400
<v Speaker 1>Already, Like I don't want to do that again.

892
00:50:12.920 --> 00:50:15.880
<v Speaker 2>Like but it's their way of like keeping the loop

893
00:50:15.960 --> 00:50:18.840
<v Speaker 2>going forever, or you know, keeping that mouse feels spinning.

894
00:50:19.800 --> 00:50:23.199
<v Speaker 1>But didn't you have the mouth still spinning before without

895
00:50:23.199 --> 00:50:26.960
<v Speaker 1>having to do that? I mean, I don't understand. Yeah,

896
00:50:27.480 --> 00:50:32.440
<v Speaker 1>like why they couldn't figure that out again, I don't know.

897
00:50:33.800 --> 00:50:37.119
<v Speaker 1>It feels like they were so worried about the end

898
00:50:37.159 --> 00:50:41.000
<v Speaker 1>game not being good enough that they had to use

899
00:50:41.039 --> 00:50:44.119
<v Speaker 1>that crutch in order to be like, well, now you

900
00:50:44.199 --> 00:50:46.519
<v Speaker 1>have to play it for this long in order to

901
00:50:46.559 --> 00:50:48.559
<v Speaker 1>get to your character maxed out again. And it's like

902
00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:51.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of there's a word for it that I can't

903
00:50:51.800 --> 00:50:55.599
<v Speaker 1>think of right now, but you're like, yeah, you're you're

904
00:50:55.719 --> 00:50:58.480
<v Speaker 1>kind of like forcing the repetition on people and it

905
00:50:58.480 --> 00:51:00.960
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be like they should want to go back to

906
00:51:01.039 --> 00:51:05.199
<v Speaker 1>your game, right, And it's yeah, not great. It leaves

907
00:51:05.280 --> 00:51:07.000
<v Speaker 1>a bad taste in the mouth of people. And I

908
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:10.360
<v Speaker 1>think a lot of people have probably done what's been happening,

909
00:51:10.400 --> 00:51:12.000
<v Speaker 1>which is they just choose not to go back to

910
00:51:12.039 --> 00:51:12.440
<v Speaker 1>it at all.

911
00:51:12.920 --> 00:51:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, as you'd hear a YenS complain about Diablo before,

912
00:51:15.519 --> 00:51:19.880
<v Speaker 2>like he hates it. Yeah, that's not you know, do

913
00:51:19.960 --> 00:51:22.480
<v Speaker 2>being heard to him partially he played a bad character class.

914
00:51:22.519 --> 00:51:23.960
<v Speaker 2>That's like, well, that's kind of on you, but.

915
00:51:24.199 --> 00:51:27.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's true. You told him and he could have

916
00:51:27.679 --> 00:51:30.760
<v Speaker 1>gone back, but he yeah, well all right. Moving on

917
00:51:31.199 --> 00:51:34.119
<v Speaker 1>to Nintendo here for a little bit, Nintendo had their

918
00:51:34.840 --> 00:51:37.880
<v Speaker 1>everybody had their sales thing. But you know, we did

919
00:51:38.000 --> 00:51:41.119
<v Speaker 1>xboxes last week and Nintendo kind of had theirs within

920
00:51:41.239 --> 00:51:45.800
<v Speaker 1>the they would fall in this week, and obviously Switch

921
00:51:46.400 --> 00:51:49.679
<v Speaker 1>one sales have taken a nose dive because that console

922
00:51:49.800 --> 00:51:53.480
<v Speaker 1>is freaking super old and it's not like they had

923
00:51:54.159 --> 00:51:59.320
<v Speaker 1>amazing killer apps come out last year. It's also amazing

924
00:51:59.360 --> 00:52:02.800
<v Speaker 1>that like people want to talk about these remakes all

925
00:52:02.800 --> 00:52:06.800
<v Speaker 1>the time, and it just goes to show that the

926
00:52:06.960 --> 00:52:09.559
<v Speaker 1>RPG's are still like very much in this genre, because

927
00:52:09.559 --> 00:52:14.159
<v Speaker 1>I think an amazing game like Mario thousand Year Door

928
00:52:14.239 --> 00:52:17.599
<v Speaker 1>only had two million sales. Uh, And then you put

929
00:52:17.639 --> 00:52:21.599
<v Speaker 1>it against like almost anything else I think, aside from

930
00:52:21.599 --> 00:52:26.559
<v Speaker 1>Princess Peach of their like big releases and everything else.

931
00:52:26.599 --> 00:52:30.440
<v Speaker 1>I sold it by a bunch, included to Mario Party Jamboree,

932
00:52:30.480 --> 00:52:34.000
<v Speaker 1>which sold six point step one seven million, which is

933
00:52:34.039 --> 00:52:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the highest of the three now and each one of

934
00:52:38.039 --> 00:52:41.760
<v Speaker 1>them sold over five million, which is still ridiculous. Shows

935
00:52:41.800 --> 00:52:45.880
<v Speaker 1>the power of the Switch. But also I think like, uh,

936
00:52:46.599 --> 00:52:49.199
<v Speaker 1>not great numbers for Echos of Wisdom. That only sold

937
00:52:49.280 --> 00:52:52.599
<v Speaker 1>like four million, which is pretty low for a Zelda.

938
00:52:52.400 --> 00:52:56.840
<v Speaker 2>Game maybe, but like it's a really awesome Zelda game,

939
00:52:56.880 --> 00:52:58.239
<v Speaker 2>So it's not hugely surprising.

940
00:52:58.599 --> 00:53:01.400
<v Speaker 1>Like yeah, and I think people are there's still a

941
00:53:01.400 --> 00:53:04.599
<v Speaker 1>lot of people that they have now become used to

942
00:53:04.719 --> 00:53:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Zelda is Breath of the Wall and Tiers of the Kingdom.

943
00:53:07.039 --> 00:53:13.320
<v Speaker 1>It's not to Zelda for them. Yeah, so games.

944
00:53:13.159 --> 00:53:15.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're not playing link. It's not traditional combat even

945
00:53:16.000 --> 00:53:18.480
<v Speaker 2>like the old combat. You know, it's just like kind

946
00:53:18.480 --> 00:53:21.840
<v Speaker 2>of weird puzzle things. It's not that surprising, you know.

947
00:53:22.679 --> 00:53:26.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's definitely. Yeah, it's different. It's different combat. I

948
00:53:26.760 --> 00:53:29.360
<v Speaker 1>mean they try to kind of bridge the gap between

949
00:53:30.119 --> 00:53:33.920
<v Speaker 1>the Tiers of the Kingdom, like you can create things

950
00:53:35.239 --> 00:53:38.239
<v Speaker 1>with the traditional Zelda stuff. But then it's also like

951
00:53:38.280 --> 00:53:40.920
<v Speaker 1>you're not controlling a lot of the combat because that's

952
00:53:40.960 --> 00:53:45.400
<v Speaker 1>being done by the the little monsters that you can

953
00:53:45.960 --> 00:53:49.519
<v Speaker 1>take over or whatever. And and I think that probably

954
00:53:49.599 --> 00:53:53.280
<v Speaker 1>threw some people off as well. Not to mention the

955
00:53:53.719 --> 00:53:57.800
<v Speaker 1>like solving a re dungeon with the bed for a while, Yeah, sure,

956
00:53:58.840 --> 00:54:02.320
<v Speaker 1>a thing, but the main thing from Nintendo this week

957
00:54:02.599 --> 00:54:05.960
<v Speaker 1>is obviously they kind of have to like keep drip

958
00:54:06.000 --> 00:54:09.440
<v Speaker 1>feeding the news until we get to April. Second. So

959
00:54:11.599 --> 00:54:16.519
<v Speaker 1>Nintendo's president for Krower, was asked, you know, especially because

960
00:54:16.559 --> 00:54:19.480
<v Speaker 1>of all the stuff that had already come out about

961
00:54:19.599 --> 00:54:22.280
<v Speaker 1>what's gonna happen with these tariffs and all this other

962
00:54:22.320 --> 00:54:28.280
<v Speaker 1>stuff and the Japanese yen and exchange rate all that stuff.

963
00:54:28.320 --> 00:54:31.760
<v Speaker 1>He's like, they asked him, you know what about the

964
00:54:31.800 --> 00:54:34.400
<v Speaker 1>switch price, the Switch two price, and he says, well,

965
00:54:34.719 --> 00:54:39.760
<v Speaker 1>there's multiple factors they are considering that they they know

966
00:54:39.840 --> 00:54:42.559
<v Speaker 1>that it has to be affordable, that people have known

967
00:54:42.639 --> 00:54:45.519
<v Speaker 1>Nintendo to be an affordable company when it comes to

968
00:54:45.559 --> 00:54:48.159
<v Speaker 1>their products, and they have to take all this stuff

969
00:54:48.199 --> 00:54:53.719
<v Speaker 1>into a you know account. I think I saw that

970
00:54:54.360 --> 00:54:57.199
<v Speaker 1>most of the Switch two parts are made in Vietnam,

971
00:54:57.400 --> 00:55:00.559
<v Speaker 1>so the tariffs wouldn't affect the switch to but that

972
00:55:00.880 --> 00:55:03.559
<v Speaker 1>there is the still the exchange rate and the bad

973
00:55:03.800 --> 00:55:06.400
<v Speaker 1>stuff going on with the end right now? Do you

974
00:55:06.599 --> 00:55:09.800
<v Speaker 1>think that where where did you end up landing when

975
00:55:09.800 --> 00:55:12.199
<v Speaker 1>we talked about the press, when we did the prediction

976
00:55:12.239 --> 00:55:15.679
<v Speaker 1>at the beginning, I think sixty you still think it's

977
00:55:15.679 --> 00:55:18.119
<v Speaker 1>gonna be three to fifty yetter all that, I feel

978
00:55:18.119 --> 00:55:21.280
<v Speaker 1>like it's kind of getting us ready for a little higher.

979
00:55:21.840 --> 00:55:24.679
<v Speaker 2>I could see four hundred, and there are some Costco

980
00:55:25.400 --> 00:55:28.760
<v Speaker 2>Canada leak or like very temporary thing that headed for

981
00:55:28.800 --> 00:55:32.079
<v Speaker 2>five hundred Canadian which would be basically four hundred USD.

982
00:55:32.519 --> 00:55:36.400
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I could see. I could see four hundred

983
00:55:36.440 --> 00:55:41.679
<v Speaker 1>by itself a one leap for the console with what

984
00:55:41.800 --> 00:55:46.199
<v Speaker 1>it's supposed to have inside. And then also you know

985
00:55:46.559 --> 00:55:49.239
<v Speaker 1>the promise of Switch two games and still being able

986
00:55:49.280 --> 00:55:52.760
<v Speaker 1>to play Switch one games. I think that's enough too.

987
00:55:53.400 --> 00:55:56.039
<v Speaker 1>And then you know whatever the DLSS technology is going

988
00:55:56.079 --> 00:55:57.599
<v Speaker 1>to be able to do when you put it on

989
00:55:57.639 --> 00:56:01.199
<v Speaker 1>your TV, because supposedly the doc is going to actually

990
00:56:01.199 --> 00:56:03.079
<v Speaker 1>have power this time. It's not going to just be

991
00:56:03.360 --> 00:56:06.079
<v Speaker 1>you put the thing in through. It's not going to

992
00:56:06.119 --> 00:56:08.480
<v Speaker 1>be a pass through where an ups. It's actually supposed

993
00:56:08.519 --> 00:56:11.800
<v Speaker 1>to be providing power because it has to right provide

994
00:56:11.800 --> 00:56:16.039
<v Speaker 1>that four K image. I definitely could see four hundred,

995
00:56:16.039 --> 00:56:19.320
<v Speaker 1>and then you more your part nine you pay.

996
00:56:19.280 --> 00:56:20.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think I think if it's a bundle with

997
00:56:20.679 --> 00:56:24.119
<v Speaker 2>a game, that'll be four fifty, but it's yeah, you know,

998
00:56:24.159 --> 00:56:26.760
<v Speaker 2>I probably just get the regular game, get the regular

999
00:56:26.800 --> 00:56:30.000
<v Speaker 2>bundle or the regular system couldn't necessarily need Mark RT

1000
00:56:30.079 --> 00:56:32.280
<v Speaker 2>nine even though it'll be like the number one selling thing.

1001
00:56:32.639 --> 00:56:34.199
<v Speaker 1>I'd see a lot of people saying that, like we

1002
00:56:34.239 --> 00:56:36.440
<v Speaker 1>should get ready for like five hundred, and I'm just like,

1003
00:56:36.519 --> 00:56:39.679
<v Speaker 1>I still can't see them going route because it's it's

1004
00:56:39.719 --> 00:56:42.960
<v Speaker 1>still a switch like, you know, even if you tell

1005
00:56:43.000 --> 00:56:43.320
<v Speaker 1>me that.

1006
00:56:43.480 --> 00:56:47.599
<v Speaker 2>Like it's approaching five hundred, that's like almost steam Deck money.

1007
00:56:47.760 --> 00:56:49.320
<v Speaker 1>And I'd probably to get one of those.

1008
00:56:49.360 --> 00:56:51.960
<v Speaker 2>If I was going to get something in that form

1009
00:56:52.039 --> 00:56:54.719
<v Speaker 2>factor or you know, like that specific I'm going to

1010
00:56:54.760 --> 00:56:57.400
<v Speaker 2>spend the price. I'd rather spend the twenty or thirty

1011
00:56:57.400 --> 00:56:59.199
<v Speaker 2>extra bucks in the steam Deck. And it's say screwed.

1012
00:56:59.239 --> 00:57:01.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's it's are going to sell like crazy.

1013
00:57:01.480 --> 00:57:03.719
<v Speaker 1>Let's let's not hit ourselves. We know for sure it

1014
00:57:03.760 --> 00:57:06.119
<v Speaker 1>will regardless of whether they priced it at five hundred,

1015
00:57:06.480 --> 00:57:10.440
<v Speaker 1>four fifty, four hundred and three fifty whatever. Obviously, when

1016
00:57:10.440 --> 00:57:12.760
<v Speaker 1>you start getting closer to five hundred, that's when people

1017
00:57:12.800 --> 00:57:16.639
<v Speaker 1>start going, I don't know, you know, do I need

1018
00:57:16.679 --> 00:57:20.719
<v Speaker 1>it right now? It's still plays Switch one games. We

1019
00:57:20.800 --> 00:57:22.679
<v Speaker 1>know two of the biggest games that people are gonna

1020
00:57:22.719 --> 00:57:25.159
<v Speaker 1>care about or Switch one Games, which is Pokemon ZA

1021
00:57:25.239 --> 00:57:29.159
<v Speaker 1>and Detroit Prime four beyond, especially the Pokemon side of things.

1022
00:57:29.519 --> 00:57:32.960
<v Speaker 1>So unless they announce a switch to exclusive Pokemon game,

1023
00:57:33.440 --> 00:57:35.880
<v Speaker 1>there's not really a reason for the Pokemon fans to

1024
00:57:35.920 --> 00:57:38.400
<v Speaker 1>go out and rush, and which they could. They could

1025
00:57:38.480 --> 00:57:44.079
<v Speaker 1>announce the next gen of Pokemon A two. Yeah, I don't.

1026
00:57:44.480 --> 00:57:47.280
<v Speaker 1>I think we're definitely gonna get whatever. I don't even

1027
00:57:47.320 --> 00:57:52.039
<v Speaker 1>know what gen we're on at this point. The successor

1028
00:57:52.119 --> 00:57:55.599
<v Speaker 1>to Scarlet and Violet could definitely be announced at that

1029
00:57:55.760 --> 00:57:58.480
<v Speaker 1>April second thing, even if they announced it just like

1030
00:57:58.519 --> 00:58:02.079
<v Speaker 1>they did ZA, where it's just like letterhead, name plate,

1031
00:58:02.320 --> 00:58:07.559
<v Speaker 1>it's coming whatever, you know, not this year, but next year's.

1032
00:58:07.960 --> 00:58:10.920
<v Speaker 1>Especially the way that the Game Awards and even Capcom

1033
00:58:10.960 --> 00:58:14.480
<v Speaker 1>with Animusha made it okay for you to be able

1034
00:58:14.519 --> 00:58:18.079
<v Speaker 1>to put twenty twenty six on a thing at the end,

1035
00:58:18.719 --> 00:58:21.159
<v Speaker 1>I could see Nintendo putting out a bunch of twenty

1036
00:58:21.159 --> 00:58:26.079
<v Speaker 1>twenty six stuff and going, okay, you know, get ready, Uh,

1037
00:58:26.159 --> 00:58:28.199
<v Speaker 1>there's some cool things coming this year, but next year

1038
00:58:28.239 --> 00:58:31.400
<v Speaker 1>we're definitely gonna have a blowout. You know this is coming,

1039
00:58:31.440 --> 00:58:35.480
<v Speaker 1>This is coming, this is coming. So I could see it.

1040
00:58:36.159 --> 00:58:39.280
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I just I think like once you get

1041
00:58:39.320 --> 00:58:42.159
<v Speaker 1>past you're gonna tell me that it's five hundred and

1042
00:58:42.199 --> 00:58:45.760
<v Speaker 1>then five point fifty with a game for the switch too,

1043
00:58:46.480 --> 00:58:48.920
<v Speaker 1>and they're still gonna support the I think you're they're

1044
00:58:48.960 --> 00:58:50.800
<v Speaker 1>talking about. Switch one is gonna be supported as long

1045
00:58:50.840 --> 00:58:53.400
<v Speaker 1>as people demand it. The higher you make that price

1046
00:58:53.559 --> 00:58:55.760
<v Speaker 1>at the beginning, the more demand there's gonna be for

1047
00:58:55.920 --> 00:58:58.159
<v Speaker 1>supporting Switch one for a long time.

1048
00:58:58.599 --> 00:59:01.400
<v Speaker 2>So but the problem is you can't do what Sony

1049
00:59:01.440 --> 00:59:04.480
<v Speaker 2>and Microsoft did because there's gonna be a bigger golf

1050
00:59:04.480 --> 00:59:07.000
<v Speaker 2>between the Switch one and switch to than like PS

1051
00:59:07.039 --> 00:59:10.079
<v Speaker 2>four and PS five or the you know the xboxes.

1052
00:59:10.519 --> 00:59:14.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean definitely. You know this year there's gonna

1053
00:59:14.519 --> 00:59:16.760
<v Speaker 1>be switch one support, so there's no run you don't

1054
00:59:16.800 --> 00:59:19.280
<v Speaker 1>really need to buy the switch to until.

1055
00:59:19.840 --> 00:59:23.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but in the year in four years you didn't,

1056
00:59:23.519 --> 00:59:29.840
<v Speaker 2>they'll be Switched one support. No way, like even games

1057
00:59:29.880 --> 00:59:32.039
<v Speaker 2>nowadays like they don't run that particularly well in.

1058
00:59:32.039 --> 00:59:34.079
<v Speaker 1>The well, there are so many games that can't run

1059
00:59:34.119 --> 00:59:35.920
<v Speaker 1>on Switch one that will now be able to run

1060
00:59:35.920 --> 00:59:40.599
<v Speaker 1>on switch to, right, because even I mean seven if

1061
00:59:41.280 --> 00:59:46.000
<v Speaker 1>runs on Switch one. But I bet Borderlines two is

1062
00:59:46.039 --> 00:59:48.760
<v Speaker 1>not gonna be on switch but it probably will be

1063
00:59:48.840 --> 00:59:58.440
<v Speaker 1>on switch to. So Borderlines four I don't know if

1064
00:59:58.440 --> 01:00:00.679
<v Speaker 1>they're hinting at are they gonna try to get Grand

1065
01:00:00.719 --> 01:00:03.519
<v Speaker 1>Theft Attle six to run on switch too? Definitely not gonna.

1066
01:00:03.639 --> 01:00:08.440
<v Speaker 1>Uh so uh they did, you know, stress Seonic kind

1067
01:00:08.440 --> 01:00:12.000
<v Speaker 1>of reiterated they are going to support Nintendo's but I

1068
01:00:12.320 --> 01:00:14.519
<v Speaker 1>better Grand Theft Tottle six lands on that thing. It

1069
01:00:14.639 --> 01:00:19.400
<v Speaker 1>is going to sell even more crazy numbers. So I

1070
01:00:19.480 --> 01:00:20.960
<v Speaker 1>bet I think we'll try to make it work as

1071
01:00:21.039 --> 01:00:23.800
<v Speaker 1>much as possible. And I'm sure Nintendo is trying to

1072
01:00:23.880 --> 01:00:28.199
<v Speaker 1>avoid the whole like those Cloud only things did not work,

1073
01:00:28.760 --> 01:00:33.599
<v Speaker 1>so let's avoid that as much as possible. So, yeah,

1074
01:00:33.719 --> 01:00:37.159
<v Speaker 1>we'll see what it ends up costume. But I'm I

1075
01:00:37.320 --> 01:00:40.000
<v Speaker 1>see people putting out that four to fifty five hundred price.

1076
01:00:40.039 --> 01:00:42.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm dislike. I can't say, yeah, I.

1077
01:00:42.920 --> 01:00:47.199
<v Speaker 2>Think four hundred for the basic Basic one and then

1078
01:00:47.239 --> 01:00:48.239
<v Speaker 2>four to fifty for a game.

1079
01:00:48.800 --> 01:00:50.800
<v Speaker 1>I could see five hundred if you're gonna tell me

1080
01:00:50.920 --> 01:00:54.559
<v Speaker 1>that it either includes the pro controller or another set

1081
01:00:54.599 --> 01:00:57.679
<v Speaker 1>of joy Con but it has to have other things.

1082
01:00:58.000 --> 01:01:01.559
<v Speaker 1>So but you know those those plays is that love

1083
01:01:01.639 --> 01:01:05.719
<v Speaker 1>to do that, like GameStop and all those weird shops,

1084
01:01:05.800 --> 01:01:07.519
<v Speaker 1>that that's the only way they would sell the PS

1085
01:01:07.599 --> 01:01:10.280
<v Speaker 1>five was with the game and something else to like

1086
01:01:10.480 --> 01:01:13.960
<v Speaker 1>jack up the price, so I wouldn't be surprised. We

1087
01:01:14.000 --> 01:01:17.079
<v Speaker 1>see that also, but we'll see well when we get there.

1088
01:01:17.159 --> 01:01:20.960
<v Speaker 1>We still got plenty of time for April, like two months,

1089
01:01:21.360 --> 01:01:22.880
<v Speaker 1>barely a little bit less than two months at this

1090
01:01:24.440 --> 01:01:29.239
<v Speaker 1>I think the rest of this stuff, Uh, now, okay,

1091
01:01:29.320 --> 01:01:32.719
<v Speaker 1>there's a couple of things. Did you see the thing

1092
01:01:32.880 --> 01:01:35.159
<v Speaker 1>with uh it feels like every week we got to

1093
01:01:35.199 --> 01:01:38.719
<v Speaker 1>talk about by Away and dragon Age. Did you see

1094
01:01:38.719 --> 01:01:40.960
<v Speaker 1>the thing with Mike Andrew Wilson where he said that

1095
01:01:41.079 --> 01:01:44.119
<v Speaker 1>the reason why Vailguard failed is because people are used to,

1096
01:01:45.000 --> 01:01:48.679
<v Speaker 1>uh basically playing live service games, and so therefore they

1097
01:01:48.679 --> 01:01:50.440
<v Speaker 1>would have kept the games of live service like it

1098
01:01:50.519 --> 01:01:52.320
<v Speaker 1>was originally intended, it would have done better.

1099
01:01:53.320 --> 01:01:55.880
<v Speaker 2>Partially, I think there's just again, I should have he

1100
01:01:56.000 --> 01:01:57.480
<v Speaker 2>just said, like I should have been live service.

1101
01:01:57.559 --> 01:01:59.920
<v Speaker 1>But how does that again? How does that work?

1102
01:02:00.320 --> 01:02:00.360
<v Speaker 2>Like?

1103
01:02:01.079 --> 01:02:04.480
<v Speaker 1>Well, he says, to break beyond the core audience of games,

1104
01:02:04.599 --> 01:02:06.840
<v Speaker 1>you need to directly connect the evolving demands of players

1105
01:02:06.840 --> 01:02:10.719
<v Speaker 1>here increase. He seeks shureed world features and deeper engagement,

1106
01:02:10.760 --> 01:02:13.280
<v Speaker 1>alongsie high quality and errators, which obviously this was not

1107
01:02:13.360 --> 01:02:16.760
<v Speaker 1>a high quality narrative. Uh, he nailed it on that

1108
01:02:17.000 --> 01:02:20.639
<v Speaker 1>this wasn't a high quality narrative. But then Mike Laidlaw

1109
01:02:20.760 --> 01:02:23.360
<v Speaker 1>came out on Blue Sky and he said, look, I'm

1110
01:02:23.360 --> 01:02:25.440
<v Speaker 1>not a FANTASYEO guy, but if someone said to me

1111
01:02:25.519 --> 01:02:27.880
<v Speaker 1>the key to the successful single player IP successes to

1112
01:02:27.920 --> 01:02:31.159
<v Speaker 1>make it a purely multiplayer game, no, not a spinoff,

1113
01:02:31.199 --> 01:02:34.199
<v Speaker 1>fundamentally changed the DNA what people loved about the core game.

1114
01:02:34.280 --> 01:02:36.320
<v Speaker 1>To me, I'd probably like quit that job or something.

1115
01:02:36.760 --> 01:02:40.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And also like, what's the mentality for that for

1116
01:02:40.360 --> 01:02:44.360
<v Speaker 2>like Balder's Gate three, Like that's not a live service game,

1117
01:02:44.480 --> 01:02:45.920
<v Speaker 2>and that was one of the most popular games of

1118
01:02:46.000 --> 01:02:47.480
<v Speaker 2>last year or two years ago.

1119
01:02:48.400 --> 01:02:51.039
<v Speaker 1>It's because he hasn't ingrained in them that everything has

1120
01:02:51.119 --> 01:02:53.559
<v Speaker 1>to be live service, right. It's like they don't know

1121
01:02:53.719 --> 01:02:59.559
<v Speaker 1>how to do unless it's something like you know, the

1122
01:03:00.119 --> 01:03:03.280
<v Speaker 1>us A fair stuff where it's like, okay, that's indie.

1123
01:03:03.360 --> 01:03:05.880
<v Speaker 1>It's okay for it to be it's to US co op,

1124
01:03:05.960 --> 01:03:07.760
<v Speaker 1>but it's okay for it not to be live service,

1125
01:03:07.920 --> 01:03:11.559
<v Speaker 1>you know. Whereas it's like anything that they spend a

1126
01:03:11.639 --> 01:03:14.039
<v Speaker 1>lot of money on has to have some kind of

1127
01:03:14.079 --> 01:03:16.639
<v Speaker 1>and it's like, holy crap, I'm worried about mass effect five.

1128
01:03:16.679 --> 01:03:18.599
<v Speaker 1>Now you're going to try to pigeonhole some kind of

1129
01:03:19.079 --> 01:03:22.599
<v Speaker 1>live service thing into that. Y, yes they are.

1130
01:03:23.960 --> 01:03:27.559
<v Speaker 2>There are some game spot thing like there's an EA

1131
01:03:28.039 --> 01:03:30.559
<v Speaker 2>thing about like, what do you want to see about

1132
01:03:30.599 --> 01:03:33.920
<v Speaker 2>plans for Zombies three? And my response is make it

1133
01:03:33.960 --> 01:03:36.119
<v Speaker 2>a twenty dollars game where there's no white sort of

1134
01:03:36.199 --> 01:03:37.039
<v Speaker 2>bullshit inside of it.

1135
01:03:37.760 --> 01:03:43.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't. I just feel like that's that's another

1136
01:03:43.679 --> 01:03:46.519
<v Speaker 1>thing too. It's just like, look, we're seeing so many

1137
01:03:46.599 --> 01:03:49.719
<v Speaker 1>of these things bomb, how many of these have to

1138
01:03:49.800 --> 01:03:52.480
<v Speaker 1>happen to where you kind of understand that. It's like, look,

1139
01:03:52.559 --> 01:03:55.119
<v Speaker 1>the more and more you keep driving this up a wall,

1140
01:03:55.559 --> 01:03:58.239
<v Speaker 1>the more non people are going to reject it, right,

1141
01:03:58.320 --> 01:04:04.440
<v Speaker 1>and you're gonna have more multi versus and more concords

1142
01:04:04.559 --> 01:04:09.239
<v Speaker 1>and insert failed live service game here, and and you're

1143
01:04:09.280 --> 01:04:11.440
<v Speaker 1>not going to be that success. Like it's like you

1144
01:04:11.639 --> 01:04:15.159
<v Speaker 1>already kind of teeter on the brink with your sports

1145
01:04:15.280 --> 01:04:20.719
<v Speaker 1>games that you're like driving the monetization and two K

1146
01:04:20.920 --> 01:04:24.760
<v Speaker 1>does this as well with the NBA two K, where

1147
01:04:24.800 --> 01:04:27.760
<v Speaker 1>it's like, how do we get that VC money? Constantly

1148
01:04:28.320 --> 01:04:31.639
<v Speaker 1>It's like yo, I mean you try to do this

1149
01:04:31.760 --> 01:04:35.039
<v Speaker 1>with other games and it's it's just not happening. So

1150
01:04:35.599 --> 01:04:36.639
<v Speaker 1>how we don't do that?

1151
01:04:37.480 --> 01:04:42.159
<v Speaker 2>It's desperation. And also it's also like market like greed.

1152
01:04:42.960 --> 01:04:44.159
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, definitely agreed.

1153
01:04:44.480 --> 01:04:46.800
<v Speaker 2>It's like it's just like how can you know, yeah,

1154
01:04:46.840 --> 01:04:48.639
<v Speaker 2>how can we extract more and more blood out of

1155
01:04:48.679 --> 01:04:49.159
<v Speaker 2>the stone.

1156
01:04:49.840 --> 01:04:54.559
<v Speaker 1>The number must go up constantly. Number cannot go down. Ever,

1157
01:04:55.039 --> 01:04:58.000
<v Speaker 1>It's like, y'all, some point the number's gotta go down.

1158
01:04:58.119 --> 01:05:02.000
<v Speaker 1>It cannot go up infinitely. Y'all really need to understand that,

1159
01:05:02.440 --> 01:05:07.960
<v Speaker 1>like start going spending less money on the upkeep of

1160
01:05:08.039 --> 01:05:10.920
<v Speaker 1>all this and and start going back to ground zero.

1161
01:05:11.519 --> 01:05:13.599
<v Speaker 2>I mean it's telling when he was cranking out needs

1162
01:05:13.599 --> 01:05:15.480
<v Speaker 2>for speed games for the past decade and a half,

1163
01:05:15.639 --> 01:05:19.360
<v Speaker 2>how like the only one that did actually well was

1164
01:05:20.800 --> 01:05:23.440
<v Speaker 2>Hot Pursuit. Mm hmmm, I think that's what it was,

1165
01:05:23.519 --> 01:05:27.519
<v Speaker 2>thee with Tops and Robbers. Yeah, yes, that was a

1166
01:05:28.320 --> 01:05:31.159
<v Speaker 2>mainly single player game, like you could like race against

1167
01:05:31.199 --> 01:05:34.440
<v Speaker 2>your friends times, but like they need to and also

1168
01:05:34.559 --> 01:05:37.800
<v Speaker 2>like it was like that wasn't a a the core

1169
01:05:37.960 --> 01:05:40.320
<v Speaker 2>feature of the game. All the other ones like they

1170
01:05:40.400 --> 01:05:44.960
<v Speaker 2>try to have this like live city cluster fastic race

1171
01:05:44.960 --> 01:05:46.639
<v Speaker 2>against your friends or whatever.

1172
01:05:46.719 --> 01:05:49.159
<v Speaker 1>Well, race against your friends with scores because it's not

1173
01:05:49.400 --> 01:05:51.920
<v Speaker 1>like you had you could actually race against them. It's

1174
01:05:52.039 --> 01:05:54.000
<v Speaker 1>like you put your score out there and they try

1175
01:05:54.039 --> 01:05:58.920
<v Speaker 1>to beat you. Yeah, okay, that's nowhere nearest fun but thanks.

1176
01:06:00.480 --> 01:06:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah that Look, it's just it feels like every time

1177
01:06:04.400 --> 01:06:07.480
<v Speaker 1>we talked about them, like they postponed Need for Speed

1178
01:06:07.639 --> 01:06:10.480
<v Speaker 1>last week, and then they're gonna work on Battlefield and

1179
01:06:11.400 --> 01:06:14.800
<v Speaker 1>it's just like you keep putting out Dragon Age to

1180
01:06:15.719 --> 01:06:17.519
<v Speaker 1>sit there and tell them how badly it did, and

1181
01:06:17.639 --> 01:06:20.639
<v Speaker 1>even EAFC to a certain point, it's just like, God,

1182
01:06:20.679 --> 01:06:23.400
<v Speaker 1>I'll be glad when they get past this, and let's

1183
01:06:23.719 --> 01:06:26.760
<v Speaker 1>be happy about split fiction, because man, everything about a

1184
01:06:26.800 --> 01:06:30.039
<v Speaker 1>EA right now is nowhere near as bad as Warner Brothers, though,

1185
01:06:30.199 --> 01:06:34.039
<v Speaker 1>who continue to just I guess it's good news, but

1186
01:06:35.039 --> 01:06:40.840
<v Speaker 1>just shows their strategy was absolutely terrible. I guess they

1187
01:06:40.960 --> 01:06:44.360
<v Speaker 1>tried to figure out some kind of live service thing

1188
01:06:44.400 --> 01:06:47.559
<v Speaker 1>for Wonder Woman or they couldn't figure out what they

1189
01:06:47.599 --> 01:06:50.119
<v Speaker 1>wanted the Wonder Woman game to be, and apparently it

1190
01:06:50.239 --> 01:06:55.239
<v Speaker 1>was rebooted secretly. It's already cost more than a hundred

1191
01:06:55.280 --> 01:07:00.519
<v Speaker 1>million dollars. Crazy, and aside from also like we knew,

1192
01:07:00.639 --> 01:07:03.519
<v Speaker 1>they're pretty much failed because not only do they put

1193
01:07:03.519 --> 01:07:05.360
<v Speaker 1>it in patient plus and it felt like it made

1194
01:07:05.400 --> 01:07:08.920
<v Speaker 1>no waves. But you know, Harry Potters Putish Champions did nothing.

1195
01:07:09.679 --> 01:07:12.920
<v Speaker 1>And then it's like one of them was supposed to

1196
01:07:12.960 --> 01:07:15.480
<v Speaker 1>be one of their big games because it uses the

1197
01:07:15.599 --> 01:07:19.519
<v Speaker 1>nemesis system that we haven't seen since the second yeah,

1198
01:07:20.280 --> 01:07:24.559
<v Speaker 1>or set of War. And then yeah, it's just going

1199
01:07:24.639 --> 01:07:28.239
<v Speaker 1>back to the ring board. So we'll see when he

1200
01:07:28.360 --> 01:07:29.039
<v Speaker 1>gets put out.

1201
01:07:29.559 --> 01:07:32.760
<v Speaker 2>Let me ask you two things about Wonder Woman. A

1202
01:07:33.519 --> 01:07:34.800
<v Speaker 2>does she fly or now?

1203
01:07:35.719 --> 01:07:39.559
<v Speaker 1>Uh? I bet they will try to make her no.

1204
01:07:39.920 --> 01:07:41.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean the character itself.

1205
01:07:41.599 --> 01:07:43.599
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I've seen in some of the cartoons

1206
01:07:43.760 --> 01:07:44.039
<v Speaker 1>that she.

1207
01:07:44.159 --> 01:07:47.960
<v Speaker 2>Did yeah, because it's funny because I mean, Jen is

1208
01:07:48.000 --> 01:07:50.719
<v Speaker 2>a huge Wonder Woman fan, which is like the wildering

1209
01:07:50.800 --> 01:07:53.480
<v Speaker 2>to me kind of because she's kind of a blind character,

1210
01:07:53.559 --> 01:07:56.639
<v Speaker 2>I think personally. And then I asked him like, well

1211
01:07:56.679 --> 01:07:59.000
<v Speaker 2>didn't you fly in this one? And he's like, what

1212
01:07:59.079 --> 01:08:02.559
<v Speaker 2>do you mean fly? And I was like, she can fly, yeah,

1213
01:08:03.280 --> 01:08:05.000
<v Speaker 2>And then he was like what about the invisible jet?

1214
01:08:05.400 --> 01:08:08.480
<v Speaker 2>And I was like, she has that also, Like that's

1215
01:08:08.559 --> 01:08:11.719
<v Speaker 2>also you know, so she didn't have.

1216
01:08:11.920 --> 01:08:13.800
<v Speaker 1>The ability to fly until not to get until the

1217
01:08:13.840 --> 01:08:15.599
<v Speaker 1>Wonder Woman nineteen eighty four, no.

1218
01:08:15.679 --> 01:08:17.359
<v Speaker 2>She's had a built well no, like you've been able

1219
01:08:17.399 --> 01:08:19.479
<v Speaker 2>to fly the comics for like decades.

1220
01:08:19.439 --> 01:08:21.640
<v Speaker 1>Right, but he was like gifted to her by Athena.

1221
01:08:22.079 --> 01:08:25.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah you know, but they and then whatever.

1222
01:08:26.119 --> 01:08:28.439
<v Speaker 2>That was like the funny Wonder Woman discussion we had

1223
01:08:29.319 --> 01:08:32.640
<v Speaker 2>because yeah, she fights in the cartoons, like, right, no problem.

1224
01:08:33.159 --> 01:08:35.560
<v Speaker 2>But I read that article and I was like, what

1225
01:08:35.600 --> 01:08:37.720
<v Speaker 2>do you mean, Like this Nemesis system is turned into

1226
01:08:37.800 --> 01:08:41.039
<v Speaker 2>like this friendship bullshit, Like how do you do that?

1227
01:08:41.560 --> 01:08:43.520
<v Speaker 2>I was like just bewildered by that. I'm like, what

1228
01:08:43.600 --> 01:08:46.439
<v Speaker 2>do you become friends with your enemies? You know you're Nemesiss.

1229
01:08:47.000 --> 01:08:49.119
<v Speaker 2>You give him a chocolate cake and the beef is over?

1230
01:08:49.640 --> 01:08:52.720
<v Speaker 2>Like it's like, no, wonder that part of the game

1231
01:08:52.840 --> 01:08:56.279
<v Speaker 2>failed or like you know, is meandering about because you

1232
01:08:56.359 --> 01:08:58.119
<v Speaker 2>can't build a game on that.

1233
01:08:59.279 --> 01:09:04.039
<v Speaker 1>I mean, she has plenty of She has enough Nemesiss

1234
01:09:04.359 --> 01:09:05.199
<v Speaker 1>to where it's like.

1235
01:09:05.880 --> 01:09:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, no, because the whole thing with Shadow War, Shadow

1236
01:09:09.079 --> 01:09:12.439
<v Speaker 2>Mortor is just faceless orcs. Yeah, it's not like, oh

1237
01:09:12.520 --> 01:09:14.640
<v Speaker 2>this one orc is somehow story relevant.

1238
01:09:14.680 --> 01:09:14.920
<v Speaker 1>It's not.

1239
01:09:15.199 --> 01:09:19.920
<v Speaker 2>No, just they have some you know, uh, rudimentary system

1240
01:09:19.960 --> 01:09:23.079
<v Speaker 2>that you can just generate infinite orcs, Right, like and

1241
01:09:23.199 --> 01:09:25.239
<v Speaker 2>that's the problem of Wonder Woman also is like she

1242
01:09:25.319 --> 01:09:27.359
<v Speaker 2>doesn't have like a good uh.

1243
01:09:27.800 --> 01:09:30.439
<v Speaker 1>Arch enemy, yeah, other than like the cheetah.

1244
01:09:31.000 --> 01:09:34.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's like, oh cheetahs, the arch edimen. It's like, yeah, okay,

1245
01:09:35.119 --> 01:09:38.199
<v Speaker 2>Like even if you even if you eliminated a joker

1246
01:09:38.319 --> 01:09:42.079
<v Speaker 2>from Batman mythology, he still has oh god, dozens of

1247
01:09:42.520 --> 01:09:45.119
<v Speaker 2>dozens of other bad guys to contend with, or you

1248
01:09:45.199 --> 01:09:49.079
<v Speaker 2>know Superman, say with like Lex Luthor. It's like, but like,

1249
01:09:49.159 --> 01:09:51.319
<v Speaker 2>how do you do the Nemesis system with like random goons?

1250
01:09:51.359 --> 01:09:54.600
<v Speaker 2>With Wonder Woman fights like, oh, this one's somehow I'm

1251
01:09:54.720 --> 01:09:56.479
<v Speaker 2>immune to her lasso or something like that.

1252
01:09:57.800 --> 01:10:02.840
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's also like because in Shadow Mortor, it's kind

1253
01:10:02.880 --> 01:10:06.079
<v Speaker 1>of believable that that orc could also like whoop your ass,

1254
01:10:06.720 --> 01:10:10.560
<v Speaker 1>yeah right, whereas like the the goon that you're gonna fight,

1255
01:10:10.840 --> 01:10:14.159
<v Speaker 1>where one woman obviously has better powers than that goon.

1256
01:10:14.439 --> 01:10:17.960
<v Speaker 2>Like, I mean, that's that's also the whole problem with

1257
01:10:17.960 --> 01:10:20.800
<v Speaker 2>Superman or Superman game. It's like, how do you believably

1258
01:10:21.159 --> 01:10:23.239
<v Speaker 2>put Superman in danger? It's like you can't.

1259
01:10:24.399 --> 01:10:27.960
<v Speaker 1>Would you have to pull like enemies from the Justice

1260
01:10:28.079 --> 01:10:30.600
<v Speaker 1>League or whatever to even fill that out For Wonder

1261
01:10:30.640 --> 01:10:34.960
<v Speaker 1>Woman to like make that believable to where uh you

1262
01:10:35.039 --> 01:10:39.159
<v Speaker 1>know she has enough nemesiss to use that system. Like

1263
01:10:39.239 --> 01:10:41.800
<v Speaker 1>that's that's the thing, is Ye, that's what I think.

1264
01:10:41.840 --> 01:10:44.760
<v Speaker 2>So because a nemicis system is just like there is

1265
01:10:44.800 --> 01:10:48.000
<v Speaker 2>an in game or in universe reason at least in

1266
01:10:48.199 --> 01:10:52.239
<v Speaker 2>Shadow mortor for like, oh, Surron is creating tougher orcs

1267
01:10:52.600 --> 01:10:55.520
<v Speaker 2>theoretically you know, their immune to poison or their immune

1268
01:10:55.520 --> 01:10:58.520
<v Speaker 2>to whatever. Like you can't do that. It's like justice

1269
01:10:58.640 --> 01:11:01.119
<v Speaker 2>like or a Wonder Woman because oh this yeah, this

1270
01:11:01.319 --> 01:11:05.119
<v Speaker 2>goon is not immune to your weapon or your sword

1271
01:11:05.279 --> 01:11:08.520
<v Speaker 2>or you know, like you're like I said, lasso or something.

1272
01:11:08.760 --> 01:11:13.840
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I just think like it's it's a very

1273
01:11:14.039 --> 01:11:17.279
<v Speaker 2>hard thing to like pull off, unlike with like Batman

1274
01:11:17.600 --> 01:11:20.119
<v Speaker 2>or like even a lot of like X Men or

1275
01:11:20.199 --> 01:11:24.039
<v Speaker 2>not Marvel characters who are like functionally at least mortal,

1276
01:11:24.640 --> 01:11:27.439
<v Speaker 2>like Spider Man gets hurt or Iron Man gets sucked up,

1277
01:11:27.680 --> 01:11:30.119
<v Speaker 2>like you don't really see Wonder Woman doing that, or

1278
01:11:30.399 --> 01:11:35.680
<v Speaker 2>like Superman because they are basically immortal. Like yeah, I

1279
01:11:35.680 --> 01:11:38.479
<v Speaker 2>remember Superman sixty four, Like the reason was, like the

1280
01:11:38.520 --> 01:11:39.960
<v Speaker 2>reason you could get hurt in that game was like,

1281
01:11:40.479 --> 01:11:42.159
<v Speaker 2>oh there's kryptonic gas everywhere.

1282
01:11:42.760 --> 01:11:45.439
<v Speaker 1>It's like, yeahs terrible man.

1283
01:11:46.279 --> 01:11:49.880
<v Speaker 2>It's general, you know, but at least like they tried

1284
01:11:49.920 --> 01:11:52.319
<v Speaker 2>to provide an in universe reason for why he was

1285
01:11:52.359 --> 01:11:55.039
<v Speaker 2>like weakened, right, but just dumb.

1286
01:11:55.720 --> 01:11:57.760
<v Speaker 1>Well, hey, at least we know there's a single player

1287
01:11:57.800 --> 01:12:01.960
<v Speaker 1>of Batman game happening at the remnants of whatever's left

1288
01:12:02.000 --> 01:12:06.239
<v Speaker 1>the rock study, right and whatever. Whenever it is that

1289
01:12:06.319 --> 01:12:09.319
<v Speaker 1>we'll see that game. It's probably like at least three

1290
01:12:09.399 --> 01:12:10.199
<v Speaker 1>years away.

1291
01:12:10.600 --> 01:12:13.800
<v Speaker 2>I was gonna say four, but three, yeah, ah. Do

1292
01:12:13.800 --> 01:12:15.119
<v Speaker 2>you think it will come out or do you think

1293
01:12:15.119 --> 01:12:16.239
<v Speaker 2>they'll actually be able to finish it?

1294
01:12:16.680 --> 01:12:21.000
<v Speaker 1>With them talking about there was like tumultous behind the

1295
01:12:21.079 --> 01:12:27.000
<v Speaker 1>scenes problems with why Wonder Woman it got rebooted, Like,

1296
01:12:27.840 --> 01:12:31.439
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I just don't have faith that Warner

1297
01:12:31.560 --> 01:12:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Brothers will still have a functional game division in that.

1298
01:12:38.119 --> 01:12:40.920
<v Speaker 2>Honestly, they should shut everything for another room and be like,

1299
01:12:41.239 --> 01:12:44.359
<v Speaker 2>you know, here's the money for Mortal Kombat. If you

1300
01:12:44.399 --> 01:12:46.720
<v Speaker 2>can squeeze out another game on the off here, like

1301
01:12:46.920 --> 01:12:47.640
<v Speaker 2>I can bring.

1302
01:12:47.560 --> 01:12:51.800
<v Speaker 3>Back DC whatever the hell that thing was called, uh,

1303
01:12:52.319 --> 01:12:56.479
<v Speaker 3>Injustice or Injustice Yeah yeah, if you can throw that off,

1304
01:12:56.640 --> 01:13:00.520
<v Speaker 3>cool everything We're gonna shut down yeah.

1305
01:13:00.359 --> 01:13:03.800
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't really, I'd really be It wouldn't surprise me

1306
01:13:03.840 --> 01:13:06.600
<v Speaker 1>at all if like Mortal Koma's the only thing left standing.

1307
01:13:06.319 --> 01:13:08.960
<v Speaker 2>After what I can see, I don't going to come

1308
01:13:09.000 --> 01:13:11.359
<v Speaker 2>out that Batman game has come out, but I think

1309
01:13:11.560 --> 01:13:15.239
<v Speaker 2>it does. It'll be so far removed from what Rocktery

1310
01:13:15.319 --> 01:13:17.920
<v Speaker 2>did or from what people want, it might even be

1311
01:13:17.960 --> 01:13:21.439
<v Speaker 2>a bigger disaster than Justice League Suicide Squad.

1312
01:13:21.920 --> 01:13:25.359
<v Speaker 1>I will say that if they can get you know,

1313
01:13:25.439 --> 01:13:32.359
<v Speaker 1>there's a there's reports out that they're making an expansion

1314
01:13:32.520 --> 01:13:38.680
<v Speaker 1>to Harry Potter and Harry Potter too. If that does

1315
01:13:38.840 --> 01:13:43.880
<v Speaker 1>well right and continues to be the grossing, the big

1316
01:13:43.960 --> 01:13:46.199
<v Speaker 1>grosser for them, that it you know, the first game

1317
01:13:46.439 --> 01:13:50.920
<v Speaker 1>was right, and Mortal Combat kind of keeps going along.

1318
01:13:51.079 --> 01:13:56.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure when the second movie comes out, that might

1319
01:13:56.199 --> 01:14:03.479
<v Speaker 1>reinvigorate people to go play Mortal Kombat again. And let's see,

1320
01:14:03.520 --> 01:14:06.760
<v Speaker 1>if these DC movies do well, what are people going

1321
01:14:06.840 --> 01:14:10.119
<v Speaker 1>to be looking for, you know, other kinds of like

1322
01:14:10.239 --> 01:14:12.760
<v Speaker 1>we saw it Fallout and all that. When you have

1323
01:14:12.840 --> 01:14:16.039
<v Speaker 1>a good trans media property, people look for those games, right.

1324
01:14:16.199 --> 01:14:21.359
<v Speaker 1>So if James Gunn can bring back the DC movies

1325
01:14:21.439 --> 01:14:24.600
<v Speaker 1>to be something good, and you know, we already know.

1326
01:14:24.680 --> 01:14:28.439
<v Speaker 1>He did the great job with Peacemaker. I think that

1327
01:14:28.600 --> 01:14:31.000
<v Speaker 1>can kind of be the thing that all of that

1328
01:14:31.199 --> 01:14:34.680
<v Speaker 1>together could keep it around long enough. And if Wonder

1329
01:14:34.720 --> 01:14:37.600
<v Speaker 1>Woman can can somehow come back from all this and

1330
01:14:37.760 --> 01:14:40.960
<v Speaker 1>be good, that'll keep it around long enough for Rock

1331
01:14:41.000 --> 01:14:44.720
<v Speaker 1>Study to be all right and Batman, you know, to

1332
01:14:44.880 --> 01:14:49.520
<v Speaker 1>still exist. It just I don't know if another Batman

1333
01:14:49.600 --> 01:14:52.279
<v Speaker 1>movie will also come out before then, too. I don't

1334
01:14:52.319 --> 01:14:54.720
<v Speaker 1>know what Matt Reeves is doing, or are they actually

1335
01:14:54.800 --> 01:14:57.640
<v Speaker 1>doing that Batman two movie or whatever's going on with that.

1336
01:14:59.600 --> 01:14:59.760
<v Speaker 2>You know.

1337
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Obviously, Joker Too sucked, right. I finally watched it when

1338
01:15:06.760 --> 01:15:09.520
<v Speaker 1>it was on HBO Max like last week, and I

1339
01:15:09.640 --> 01:15:12.520
<v Speaker 1>was like, we turned it off halfway through because I

1340
01:15:12.600 --> 01:15:15.600
<v Speaker 1>don't mind musicals, but it just, my god, it was

1341
01:15:15.760 --> 01:15:20.880
<v Speaker 1>just so not working for that movie, right, yo, come on,

1342
01:15:21.600 --> 01:15:27.279
<v Speaker 1>even my my you know, my girlfriend's dad, who loved

1343
01:15:27.399 --> 01:15:30.159
<v Speaker 1>the first Joker, he just got up and he's like,

1344
01:15:30.800 --> 01:15:34.479
<v Speaker 1>why is there singing? Yeah? I don't want this in

1345
01:15:34.680 --> 01:15:37.000
<v Speaker 1>my movie, Like they just ruined the movie for me,

1346
01:15:37.640 --> 01:15:40.159
<v Speaker 1>and I'm just like, I'm sorry. You know, I'm only

1347
01:15:40.199 --> 01:15:42.079
<v Speaker 1>watching it because it's on HBO Max and I don't

1348
01:15:42.119 --> 01:15:44.640
<v Speaker 1>have to pay for it. I kind of wanted to

1349
01:15:44.680 --> 01:15:46.319
<v Speaker 1>see how bad it was, and I was like, yeah,

1350
01:15:46.479 --> 01:15:50.960
<v Speaker 1>it's pretty bad. I watched that wilfare Reese Witherspoon movie

1351
01:15:51.039 --> 01:15:53.640
<v Speaker 1>on Amazon Prime and said, and actually that was that's

1352
01:15:53.680 --> 01:15:59.199
<v Speaker 1>actually pretty But you know, look, I just I hope

1353
01:15:59.279 --> 01:16:01.239
<v Speaker 1>that all of this stuff could be good, because it's

1354
01:16:01.319 --> 01:16:05.119
<v Speaker 1>it's better for everyone if those movies and those ips

1355
01:16:05.199 --> 01:16:10.279
<v Speaker 1>are doing well. It just I hate it. I hope

1356
01:16:10.319 --> 01:16:12.399
<v Speaker 1>that Rock City can still be around long enough to

1357
01:16:12.479 --> 01:16:17.479
<v Speaker 1>like redeem themselves because for all intensive purposes that whoever

1358
01:16:17.560 --> 01:16:23.760
<v Speaker 1>made that Arkham VR game it's actually pretty good. So yeah,

1359
01:16:24.359 --> 01:16:28.720
<v Speaker 1>people want that still if you can do it right right,

1360
01:16:29.359 --> 01:16:31.239
<v Speaker 1>all right, So now the rest of this stuff is

1361
01:16:31.319 --> 01:16:37.039
<v Speaker 1>really just like, let's hit this out quick, so let

1362
01:16:37.079 --> 01:16:40.640
<v Speaker 1>me go. Uh Sonic X Generation sold two million cool

1363
01:16:41.520 --> 01:16:48.479
<v Speaker 1>glad to sell movie out, you know, yeah, exactly. GBA's

1364
01:16:49.520 --> 01:16:51.680
<v Speaker 1>water Land Force coming to Switch Online. It should have

1365
01:16:51.720 --> 01:16:55.199
<v Speaker 1>also mentioned last Segrigerator sixty four is also coming is

1366
01:16:55.239 --> 01:16:59.880
<v Speaker 1>already out and Switch Online this is coming on Valentine's Day. Cool.

1367
01:17:00.119 --> 01:17:03.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm always happy to see more games that I actually

1368
01:17:03.520 --> 01:17:07.279
<v Speaker 1>know hitting switch online, not the random nes stuff. Then

1369
01:17:07.359 --> 01:17:13.079
<v Speaker 1>Nintendo puts out that I'm just like okay, no, like whatever.

1370
01:17:14.920 --> 01:17:16.680
<v Speaker 1>Neither one of us will he played this, but just

1371
01:17:16.760 --> 01:17:20.199
<v Speaker 1>wanted to mention it because it's been like a thing.

1372
01:17:21.079 --> 01:17:24.640
<v Speaker 1>Football Managers twenty five has been delayed twice. It's supposed

1373
01:17:24.640 --> 01:17:27.560
<v Speaker 1>to come out in March. Apparently it's not going to

1374
01:17:27.640 --> 01:17:30.000
<v Speaker 1>hit that and they just decided to cancel it and

1375
01:17:30.159 --> 01:17:32.800
<v Speaker 1>they're going to focus on Football Managers twenty six. So

1376
01:17:32.880 --> 01:17:34.720
<v Speaker 1>if you're a big Football Manager guy, and there are

1377
01:17:34.800 --> 01:17:36.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people that are huge on Football Manager,

1378
01:17:37.439 --> 01:17:39.239
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure they're disappointed and they're not going to get

1379
01:17:39.279 --> 01:17:45.199
<v Speaker 1>to play the newest version. But canceling it exactly not

1380
01:17:45.319 --> 01:17:47.399
<v Speaker 1>for forcing it, because they did mention we could have

1381
01:17:47.439 --> 01:17:51.640
<v Speaker 1>put it out and just kept updating it, and we

1382
01:17:51.800 --> 01:17:54.880
<v Speaker 1>felt that it was it would have been terrible to

1383
01:17:54.960 --> 01:17:57.479
<v Speaker 1>do that, so we just canceled it right. Good on them,

1384
01:17:58.520 --> 01:18:01.600
<v Speaker 1>Happy to see people having the gumption to do that.

1385
01:18:02.359 --> 01:18:02.479
<v Speaker 3>UH.

1386
01:18:03.159 --> 01:18:06.439
<v Speaker 1>Kingdom Cum Deliverance Too, which was the big game release

1387
01:18:06.479 --> 01:18:09.319
<v Speaker 1>of last week, hit one million sales out of the

1388
01:18:09.399 --> 01:18:12.159
<v Speaker 1>first day, so it's already made the money back that

1389
01:18:12.279 --> 01:18:15.800
<v Speaker 1>they spent on it. Apparently, according to UH forgot the

1390
01:18:16.199 --> 01:18:23.439
<v Speaker 1>like main director, but it's now the Yeah, that was.

1391
01:18:23.399 --> 01:18:26.039
<v Speaker 2>Another game me and YenS we're talking about, compared it

1392
01:18:26.079 --> 01:18:30.680
<v Speaker 2>to what a Dragon Age Vail Guard. Like people want

1393
01:18:31.279 --> 01:18:35.039
<v Speaker 2>unique games or very specific game and Gilgard tried like

1394
01:18:35.119 --> 01:18:39.840
<v Speaker 2>the whole like appealing to everyone approach, which didn't work. Yeah,

1395
01:18:40.319 --> 01:18:41.640
<v Speaker 2>almost never works, you know.

1396
01:18:42.479 --> 01:18:46.520
<v Speaker 1>And Kingdom Cuming Deliverance has two has great reviews. Uh.

1397
01:18:47.920 --> 01:18:50.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it ain't a game for you, and I no,

1398
01:18:50.920 --> 01:18:53.079
<v Speaker 2>it is for the people that want it and it's

1399
01:18:53.359 --> 01:18:55.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, specifically made for them, and it's good at

1400
01:18:55.760 --> 01:18:59.920
<v Speaker 2>what it does. So trying to like appeal to everyone, like.

1401
01:19:00.199 --> 01:19:03.760
<v Speaker 1>No, there was a little bit of that reviewer controversy

1402
01:19:03.840 --> 01:19:07.399
<v Speaker 1>because the director brought up that I can't remember the

1403
01:19:08.279 --> 01:19:11.680
<v Speaker 1>outlet now. They gave it like a five and they

1404
01:19:12.199 --> 01:19:16.720
<v Speaker 1>took it off the ninety minute critic uh, and he

1405
01:19:16.920 --> 01:19:19.279
<v Speaker 1>was pissed about that. Hey, he decided to just go

1406
01:19:19.479 --> 01:19:23.079
<v Speaker 1>on social media talk about it. And I was like,

1407
01:19:23.199 --> 01:19:27.359
<v Speaker 1>oh God, that's not good, because let's start that war again.

1408
01:19:28.840 --> 01:19:30.800
<v Speaker 1>We really don't need that anymore. I'm just so tired

1409
01:19:30.840 --> 01:19:34.359
<v Speaker 1>of it, Like, let's let's not have game Jittalist get

1410
01:19:34.399 --> 01:19:37.920
<v Speaker 1>attacked because a lot of people don't understand the game

1411
01:19:38.079 --> 01:19:42.800
<v Speaker 1>that video games takes so long to play. That. Fortunately,

1412
01:19:43.560 --> 01:19:46.560
<v Speaker 1>maybe a little bit more personal bias comes into those

1413
01:19:46.640 --> 01:19:48.760
<v Speaker 1>reviews than when you watch a two hour movie.

1414
01:19:50.319 --> 01:19:53.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, if the game is purely broken, that's

1415
01:19:53.439 --> 01:19:57.359
<v Speaker 2>one thing, right. You know, all reviews are subjective to

1416
01:19:57.479 --> 01:19:58.560
<v Speaker 2>a certain extent, but.

1417
01:19:58.600 --> 01:20:01.000
<v Speaker 1>There's people that just they bring a lot more of

1418
01:20:01.159 --> 01:20:05.399
<v Speaker 1>their personal I didn't jibe with this game, so it

1419
01:20:05.560 --> 01:20:08.279
<v Speaker 1>is a five, Right, They don't look at it like

1420
01:20:08.479 --> 01:20:11.920
<v Speaker 1>objectively and go, it's a well made game. It's still

1421
01:20:12.920 --> 01:20:15.439
<v Speaker 1>a seven. Like, Okay, I did that with Big Helme

1422
01:20:15.479 --> 01:20:18.720
<v Speaker 1>of Heroes, Right, I gave it a seven. Probably for

1423
01:20:18.840 --> 01:20:21.920
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people, you look at the jank that's

1424
01:20:21.960 --> 01:20:25.119
<v Speaker 1>in there and they probably go, oh, that should have

1425
01:20:25.159 --> 01:20:28.159
<v Speaker 1>been a six or a five something, And I was like,

1426
01:20:28.279 --> 01:20:30.720
<v Speaker 1>I could still see the other qualities of this game

1427
01:20:30.840 --> 01:20:33.319
<v Speaker 1>for me, kind of outweigh some of the jink that

1428
01:20:33.399 --> 01:20:37.119
<v Speaker 1>I had to deal with. For some people, when you

1429
01:20:37.479 --> 01:20:39.760
<v Speaker 1>it's like I don't like this part of the game.

1430
01:20:39.800 --> 01:20:41.239
<v Speaker 1>I don't like that it forces me to do this,

1431
01:20:41.319 --> 01:20:43.520
<v Speaker 1>It's like, well, the game, that is what the game is.

1432
01:20:44.159 --> 01:20:46.840
<v Speaker 1>You didn't appreciate it for that, perhaps you shouldn't have

1433
01:20:46.880 --> 01:20:48.880
<v Speaker 1>been the one reviewing it, and therefore, now you gave

1434
01:20:48.920 --> 01:20:52.399
<v Speaker 1>this game A five and it does affect me unfortunately

1435
01:20:52.600 --> 01:20:55.279
<v Speaker 1>Metacritic and Open Critics scores and still tied the people's

1436
01:20:56.760 --> 01:21:00.319
<v Speaker 1>bonuses and stuff like that for a lot of places. Unfortunately, stupid.

1437
01:21:00.399 --> 01:21:03.960
<v Speaker 1>It shouldn't be that way, but it is. And you know,

1438
01:21:04.399 --> 01:21:07.279
<v Speaker 1>just maybe maybe think about like I'm not saying we

1439
01:21:07.319 --> 01:21:08.840
<v Speaker 1>need to think about those people when we're doing These

1440
01:21:08.840 --> 01:21:12.159
<v Speaker 1>are reasons, but it's like, just don't don't take so

1441
01:21:12.359 --> 01:21:15.159
<v Speaker 1>much personal bias into it that it's like it almost

1442
01:21:15.159 --> 01:21:17.880
<v Speaker 1>feels like you're hating now instead of actually re viewing

1443
01:21:19.680 --> 01:21:22.000
<v Speaker 1>the USA who you know, they used to run E

1444
01:21:22.079 --> 01:21:26.880
<v Speaker 1>three are now doing a networking event called Icon with

1445
01:21:27.039 --> 01:21:32.840
<v Speaker 1>two Eyes. Everybody, the big players are all in on this.

1446
01:21:33.600 --> 01:21:37.119
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna hit Las Vegas April twenty seven to April thirtieth.

1447
01:21:38.479 --> 01:21:42.199
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna have visionary knots engaging discussions at workshops and

1448
01:21:42.399 --> 01:21:46.479
<v Speaker 1>elite networking opportunities. Obviously, we talked about last week that,

1449
01:21:47.239 --> 01:21:50.359
<v Speaker 1>you know, the Summer Game Fest now has their own

1450
01:21:50.359 --> 01:21:54.199
<v Speaker 1>little business summit thing that they're doing. Yeah, you think

1451
01:21:54.279 --> 01:21:57.560
<v Speaker 1>this is gonna you know, obviously this is not supposed

1452
01:21:57.560 --> 01:21:59.800
<v Speaker 1>to be. It's not meant to be that it's kind

1453
01:21:59.800 --> 01:22:01.560
<v Speaker 1>of a going back to what E three kind of

1454
01:22:01.680 --> 01:22:03.560
<v Speaker 1>used to be, like where it's supposed to be more

1455
01:22:03.600 --> 01:22:05.399
<v Speaker 1>like a trade show, more like a this is the

1456
01:22:05.479 --> 01:22:09.439
<v Speaker 1>business thing. Yeah, you think this will actually like we

1457
01:22:09.560 --> 01:22:11.239
<v Speaker 1>got all the big players. You think this will be

1458
01:22:11.319 --> 01:22:13.359
<v Speaker 1>a big hit something.

1459
01:22:14.600 --> 01:22:17.560
<v Speaker 2>Be like pretty half assed, or they might do it

1460
01:22:17.600 --> 01:22:19.560
<v Speaker 2>for a year and then they won't get their money

1461
01:22:19.640 --> 01:22:20.720
<v Speaker 2>back and then that'll be it.

1462
01:22:21.439 --> 01:22:23.760
<v Speaker 1>I think this is an event. This is essentially just

1463
01:22:24.319 --> 01:22:27.960
<v Speaker 1>the business version of GDC uh, and it will be

1464
01:22:28.079 --> 01:22:30.439
<v Speaker 1>something that like, oh, in the industry, we kind of

1465
01:22:30.760 --> 01:22:33.680
<v Speaker 1>you talk about it and whatever, but it's not this

1466
01:22:33.880 --> 01:22:38.359
<v Speaker 1>thing that you like make a big deal about outside

1467
01:22:38.399 --> 01:22:43.920
<v Speaker 1>of that. And if some game gets made because some

1468
01:22:44.119 --> 01:22:47.239
<v Speaker 1>people got to meet up at this, we might find

1469
01:22:47.279 --> 01:22:50.319
<v Speaker 1>out the cool backstory behind it when no clip does documentary.

1470
01:22:50.399 --> 01:22:52.520
<v Speaker 1>But I think that's kind of be the extent of

1471
01:22:52.600 --> 01:22:53.560
<v Speaker 1>it for the most part.

1472
01:22:54.279 --> 01:22:54.399
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

1473
01:22:54.680 --> 01:22:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Steam is not going to offer a warning for early

1474
01:22:56.880 --> 01:22:58.760
<v Speaker 1>access games that don't get updated after a year. I

1475
01:22:58.800 --> 01:23:00.560
<v Speaker 1>feel like this should have been there for like day

1476
01:23:00.680 --> 01:23:05.039
<v Speaker 1>one with early access. I don't think anymore.

1477
01:23:05.560 --> 01:23:08.119
<v Speaker 2>I don't even necessarily thoughts of people that companies or

1478
01:23:08.119 --> 01:23:12.239
<v Speaker 2>developers would like just you know, abandon ship you know like, well, I.

1479
01:23:12.279 --> 01:23:14.319
<v Speaker 1>Think they also didn't know that early access was going

1480
01:23:14.359 --> 01:23:16.159
<v Speaker 1>to take off the way it did. Like so many

1481
01:23:16.239 --> 01:23:18.840
<v Speaker 1>games is come in and come on in early access

1482
01:23:18.880 --> 01:23:21.600
<v Speaker 1>and then they sometimes they're there for many years, not

1483
01:23:21.800 --> 01:23:26.840
<v Speaker 1>just one, and you know they end up being great successes,

1484
01:23:27.000 --> 01:23:28.720
<v Speaker 1>right like we've seen a lot of games do or

1485
01:23:30.159 --> 01:23:31.039
<v Speaker 1>they do abandon it.

1486
01:23:31.560 --> 01:23:33.199
<v Speaker 2>I thought that was funny. The other Steam thing. Do

1487
01:23:33.239 --> 01:23:33.800
<v Speaker 2>you see that's it?

1488
01:23:34.640 --> 01:23:35.399
<v Speaker 1>No? Not today?

1489
01:23:36.239 --> 01:23:40.079
<v Speaker 2>It was Steam is putting the kaibas on games ahead

1490
01:23:40.279 --> 01:23:41.640
<v Speaker 2>in game advertising.

1491
01:23:42.279 --> 01:23:43.319
<v Speaker 1>Yes, that's great.

1492
01:23:43.880 --> 01:23:48.279
<v Speaker 2>Ah and like you guys for like they're telling girls

1493
01:23:48.359 --> 01:23:49.920
<v Speaker 2>versus if you had the starts, you have to remove it.

1494
01:23:50.840 --> 01:23:52.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's good they should have.

1495
01:23:54.680 --> 01:23:56.079
<v Speaker 2>They can come to mobile. Oh.

1496
01:23:56.199 --> 01:23:59.560
<v Speaker 1>Also, I'm from I don't think i've seen this really

1497
01:23:59.640 --> 01:24:03.640
<v Speaker 1>report that much. I saw some sites posting it, but

1498
01:24:03.760 --> 01:24:05.880
<v Speaker 1>I think it's kind of like a rumor right now.

1499
01:24:06.000 --> 01:24:10.760
<v Speaker 1>It's not a but there's uh some hub above about

1500
01:24:11.000 --> 01:24:15.079
<v Speaker 1>Steam is gonna maybe try Steam Console version two. What

1501
01:24:15.199 --> 01:24:17.359
<v Speaker 1>do you think about that? You think that could actually work?

1502
01:24:18.000 --> 01:24:22.520
<v Speaker 2>No? Yeah, I think I think the the the market

1503
01:24:22.800 --> 01:24:26.520
<v Speaker 2>not the marketplace, but the ecosystem for a PC gaming

1504
01:24:26.760 --> 01:24:30.680
<v Speaker 2>is too varied and too like hyper competitive and I

1505
01:24:30.720 --> 01:24:32.840
<v Speaker 2>think the reason the Steam Steam Deck works to an

1506
01:24:32.880 --> 01:24:37.159
<v Speaker 2>extent is because they're targeting lower specs for both the

1507
01:24:37.239 --> 01:24:38.960
<v Speaker 2>game and the machine, and you.

1508
01:24:39.039 --> 01:24:43.039
<v Speaker 1>Don't have that alternative to the switch until they came out,

1509
01:24:43.319 --> 01:24:45.560
<v Speaker 1>until Steam they came on and gave you the alternative

1510
01:24:45.600 --> 01:24:48.319
<v Speaker 1>to the switch. And then obviously now there's other affordable

1511
01:24:48.359 --> 01:24:50.439
<v Speaker 1>PC gaming things out there.

1512
01:24:50.720 --> 01:24:52.720
<v Speaker 2>It'll just do people go people if they buy like

1513
01:24:52.840 --> 01:24:54.800
<v Speaker 2>a Steam machine too, or from the most sort of

1514
01:24:54.800 --> 01:24:57.319
<v Speaker 2>bitching about how it doesn't have a five nine or

1515
01:24:57.359 --> 01:25:00.399
<v Speaker 2>fifteen ninety in it, or you know, is yeah loading

1516
01:25:00.520 --> 01:25:01.920
<v Speaker 2>edge of technology, or.

1517
01:25:02.399 --> 01:25:08.520
<v Speaker 1>It's not going to erase the Xbox or the PS

1518
01:25:08.600 --> 01:25:12.680
<v Speaker 1>five or even take out PCs for that matter. I

1519
01:25:12.800 --> 01:25:15.720
<v Speaker 1>think it's if it does come out and they're just

1520
01:25:15.880 --> 01:25:19.520
<v Speaker 1>going to have it be you know, the big picture

1521
01:25:19.720 --> 01:25:22.640
<v Speaker 1>mode version of the Steam Deck, where it's like literally

1522
01:25:22.680 --> 01:25:25.479
<v Speaker 1>we're just selling it on the vow on the Steam Store,

1523
01:25:25.640 --> 01:25:28.359
<v Speaker 1>and we don't plan on having this in stores at all,

1524
01:25:29.159 --> 01:25:33.319
<v Speaker 1>then I guess fine, right, because they're not spending they're

1525
01:25:33.359 --> 01:25:35.159
<v Speaker 1>not making all these deals with all these other PC

1526
01:25:35.319 --> 01:25:38.319
<v Speaker 1>companies like they were with Alienware and all that, and

1527
01:25:38.399 --> 01:25:41.920
<v Speaker 1>then Alienware cooking to sell. If it's just Valve doing

1528
01:25:42.000 --> 01:25:45.880
<v Speaker 1>it because they want to give you the alternative. I

1529
01:25:46.039 --> 01:25:50.720
<v Speaker 1>also don't think that that prohibits Xbox or if Sony

1530
01:25:50.800 --> 01:25:52.039
<v Speaker 1>wants to do it, but I don't think they will

1531
01:25:52.720 --> 01:25:56.479
<v Speaker 1>because I still do if if Sony eventually adopts the

1532
01:25:57.039 --> 01:26:00.159
<v Speaker 1>Microsoft strategy of let's be open, they're not gonna to

1533
01:26:00.199 --> 01:26:01.960
<v Speaker 1>do it for question six. They might do it for

1534
01:26:02.279 --> 01:26:05.159
<v Speaker 1>something beyond that. Uh, they're still gonna be Sony for

1535
01:26:05.319 --> 01:26:09.800
<v Speaker 1>postation sick. So let's say Xbox, that's that's the uh.

1536
01:26:10.600 --> 01:26:12.399
<v Speaker 1>To me, it's really the only push that they could

1537
01:26:12.439 --> 01:26:17.359
<v Speaker 1>possibly do that makes that console innovative is we you

1538
01:26:17.439 --> 01:26:22.119
<v Speaker 1>can literally open up any other PC store on the

1539
01:26:22.279 --> 01:26:25.560
<v Speaker 1>Xbox and play those games. That doesn't prohibit that from

1540
01:26:25.600 --> 01:26:30.159
<v Speaker 1>happening because THEMOS is already available on Lenovo. So if

1541
01:26:30.439 --> 01:26:34.279
<v Speaker 1>Microsoft offers Valve enough money, I don't think Valve is

1542
01:26:34.319 --> 01:26:38.079
<v Speaker 1>gonna say no. It also doesn't stop the Steam Deck

1543
01:26:38.079 --> 01:26:43.039
<v Speaker 1>from existing or this console or whatever. I just don't

1544
01:26:43.039 --> 01:26:46.000
<v Speaker 1>think Valve is expecting these things to sell ridiculous numbers.

1545
01:26:46.000 --> 01:26:49.079
<v Speaker 1>They're just there for people that want them, and if

1546
01:26:49.199 --> 01:26:51.439
<v Speaker 1>they just don't sell at all, I guess they just

1547
01:26:51.680 --> 01:26:54.680
<v Speaker 1>don't make them anymore. But we'll see.

1548
01:26:56.439 --> 01:27:01.479
<v Speaker 2>The valve, the steam box in the steam, the deck,

1549
01:27:01.600 --> 01:27:04.479
<v Speaker 2>but the stupid brick thing I had for like six months.

1550
01:27:04.560 --> 01:27:10.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, exactly with those term controllers. Yeah, the steam Uh,

1551
01:27:10.640 --> 01:27:12.520
<v Speaker 1>just really quickly because we always have to talk about

1552
01:27:12.520 --> 01:27:17.720
<v Speaker 1>these things. Unfortunately, Iron Galaxy laid out six or six employees.

1553
01:27:18.600 --> 01:27:20.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's a shame because I like Iron Galaxy. I mean,

1554
01:27:20.720 --> 01:27:22.239
<v Speaker 2>they don't make the best games always, but.

1555
01:27:22.640 --> 01:27:24.800
<v Speaker 1>They got art. Yeah, definitely.

1556
01:27:25.359 --> 01:27:28.239
<v Speaker 2>I think the problem is like the marketplace is so fractured,

1557
01:27:28.439 --> 01:27:32.239
<v Speaker 2>Like there's not a place like the B tier type

1558
01:27:32.319 --> 01:27:36.439
<v Speaker 2>types of games, right exactly, like like bio mutant or

1559
01:27:36.680 --> 01:27:39.399
<v Speaker 2>you know, killer instinct that.

1560
01:27:39.600 --> 01:27:43.840
<v Speaker 1>Exists with some places, but it's like very rare, like

1561
01:27:44.279 --> 01:27:46.680
<v Speaker 1>I kind of have to they have to accept it

1562
01:27:46.800 --> 01:27:51.680
<v Speaker 1>has to be unknown, like you know, like thatless stuff, right,

1563
01:27:51.800 --> 01:27:55.239
<v Speaker 1>that's that's kind of double a ish, but it's persona.

1564
01:27:55.359 --> 01:27:59.359
<v Speaker 1>It's you know, it's summacammtens like those are beloved franchises,

1565
01:27:59.439 --> 01:28:04.399
<v Speaker 1>people a very established brand, like a Dragon as well.

1566
01:28:04.720 --> 01:28:10.600
<v Speaker 1>Like that's especially the spinoffs, like, uh, those are beloved

1567
01:28:10.680 --> 01:28:13.399
<v Speaker 1>as well. So it's like there's gonna be acceptance for them.

1568
01:28:14.640 --> 01:28:16.680
<v Speaker 1>But you try to bring in a new ip double

1569
01:28:16.760 --> 01:28:20.079
<v Speaker 1>a and it's like, unless it just really hits with people,

1570
01:28:20.880 --> 01:28:23.000
<v Speaker 1>it seems like they try to go way too far

1571
01:28:23.920 --> 01:28:27.279
<v Speaker 1>in the other direction, like the I'm gonna kill myself

1572
01:28:27.680 --> 01:28:30.880
<v Speaker 1>not killing, but I'm gonna hate myself first, constantly saying this.

1573
01:28:31.439 --> 01:28:33.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, you mentioned it last week. It's like the

1574
01:28:33.680 --> 01:28:36.279
<v Speaker 1>bean On Namco game that they tried to make it

1575
01:28:36.399 --> 01:28:40.039
<v Speaker 1>trans media before it even came out, and the Operation

1576
01:28:40.279 --> 01:28:45.399
<v Speaker 1>nine or whatever it is, and it it just bombed. Right.

1577
01:28:47.199 --> 01:28:50.199
<v Speaker 1>So also speaking of ban On Mco, because I want

1578
01:28:50.239 --> 01:28:55.680
<v Speaker 1>to bring this up, one hundred and seventeen nine. Yes, okay,

1579
01:28:55.760 --> 01:29:00.159
<v Speaker 1>that's what it is. Sorry, it's a memorable title, So

1580
01:29:00.279 --> 01:29:03.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean that doesn't help either. But I think we're

1581
01:29:03.079 --> 01:29:06.439
<v Speaker 1>thinking of like District nine and all that other stuff too.

1582
01:29:08.239 --> 01:29:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Ben I Namco has laid off one hundred and seventeen employees,

1583
01:29:12.600 --> 01:29:14.439
<v Speaker 1>not laid off in the same sense that we think

1584
01:29:14.479 --> 01:29:16.319
<v Speaker 1>of an American you know, when we were talking about

1585
01:29:16.319 --> 01:29:17.920
<v Speaker 1>that they did that whole thing where they stuck people

1586
01:29:17.960 --> 01:29:20.159
<v Speaker 1>in a room and they said they weren't doing that,

1587
01:29:20.800 --> 01:29:25.680
<v Speaker 1>but they were. Apparently they have lost one hundred and

1588
01:29:25.680 --> 01:29:29.439
<v Speaker 1>seventeen employees because they were doing things like that. Interesting

1589
01:29:29.520 --> 01:29:31.760
<v Speaker 1>that they were doing that when Dragon Ball Sparking zero

1590
01:29:31.920 --> 01:29:36.720
<v Speaker 1>sold five million copies, which is ridiculous for that franchise. Also,

1591
01:29:38.239 --> 01:29:41.600
<v Speaker 1>especially that version of the dragon Ball games that you

1592
01:29:41.680 --> 01:29:45.560
<v Speaker 1>know you're not a big fan of, but hey, kudos

1593
01:29:45.600 --> 01:29:48.640
<v Speaker 1>to them. Again. Helps when you have another property that

1594
01:29:49.880 --> 01:29:52.680
<v Speaker 1>is doing well in the Dragon Ball Dima and all

1595
01:29:52.760 --> 01:29:54.520
<v Speaker 1>that stuff, and knowing that this is one of the

1596
01:29:54.600 --> 01:29:57.920
<v Speaker 1>few last things that Toyama himself has some kind of

1597
01:29:58.000 --> 01:30:02.359
<v Speaker 1>involvement in, because now we know that anything beyond Sparking

1598
01:30:02.479 --> 01:30:07.000
<v Speaker 1>zero and Tima, that will be other people working on

1599
01:30:07.119 --> 01:30:11.119
<v Speaker 1>those I think, which Ugi Horri did mention the Dragon

1600
01:30:11.199 --> 01:30:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Quest twelve is progressing. Uh, that probably would have been

1601
01:30:15.000 --> 01:30:19.439
<v Speaker 1>the last thing that Tama might have had some involvement in, right.

1602
01:30:19.479 --> 01:30:22.600
<v Speaker 2>Which was like the art page and was like all right,

1603
01:30:22.800 --> 01:30:23.840
<v Speaker 2>yeah that's the way.

1604
01:30:24.800 --> 01:30:30.159
<v Speaker 1>So sucks again a legend, legend of of all that media,

1605
01:30:30.319 --> 01:30:34.159
<v Speaker 1>but you know, all that has a thing together to

1606
01:30:34.319 --> 01:30:37.439
<v Speaker 1>kind of affect the sale of that game doing well.

1607
01:30:37.680 --> 01:30:39.319
<v Speaker 1>Obviously think it's a good game as well.

1608
01:30:39.520 --> 01:30:42.079
<v Speaker 2>You know, I like to say it, but that'll be

1609
01:30:42.199 --> 01:30:43.840
<v Speaker 2>like when Moto finally passes away.

1610
01:30:45.319 --> 01:30:46.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't even want to think about that day. That's

1611
01:30:46.920 --> 01:30:47.760
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a sad.

1612
01:30:47.920 --> 01:30:50.760
<v Speaker 2>And it won't be the same as when not no

1613
01:30:50.920 --> 01:30:54.039
<v Speaker 2>Murra but the guy the guy made to Fantasy. Oh

1614
01:30:54.399 --> 01:30:57.680
<v Speaker 2>so yeah, he's been very disforced.

1615
01:30:57.319 --> 01:31:01.000
<v Speaker 1>In that for a while. Now he came back now, right,

1616
01:31:01.680 --> 01:31:03.680
<v Speaker 1>but like you know, for twenty years. It's kind of

1617
01:31:04.479 --> 01:31:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I think if you makes that one last game that

1618
01:31:06.840 --> 01:31:09.199
<v Speaker 1>he says he wants to make one last like big

1619
01:31:09.399 --> 01:31:13.840
<v Speaker 1>RPG right in the vein of Fall Fantasy six or whatever,

1620
01:31:14.000 --> 01:31:15.960
<v Speaker 1>if he does make it and it has Square Enix

1621
01:31:16.000 --> 01:31:19.279
<v Speaker 1>published on the box or on the on the cover,

1622
01:31:20.199 --> 01:31:23.760
<v Speaker 1>I think that would change a lot of things, you know,

1623
01:31:23.960 --> 01:31:26.560
<v Speaker 1>where he kind of really did finally come full circle

1624
01:31:26.720 --> 01:31:31.680
<v Speaker 1>and all that stuff. You know. Yeah, but all right,

1625
01:31:31.880 --> 01:31:35.119
<v Speaker 1>that's that's it for the show this week. Talking about

1626
01:31:35.159 --> 01:31:41.439
<v Speaker 1>games that are coming out in the next week or so. Also, yeah,

1627
01:31:41.960 --> 01:31:44.840
<v Speaker 1>coming out in this Valentine's week, you know, hopefully for

1628
01:31:44.920 --> 01:31:48.680
<v Speaker 1>all of y'all that have someone to celebrate with. If

1629
01:31:48.720 --> 01:31:51.399
<v Speaker 1>you watch the video version, you saw my girlfriend about

1630
01:31:51.439 --> 01:31:53.680
<v Speaker 1>three or four times. She's normally not here. It's just

1631
01:31:53.800 --> 01:31:56.920
<v Speaker 1>that she had my daughter. She went to pick up

1632
01:31:56.920 --> 01:31:58.720
<v Speaker 1>my daughter from school, and then she was like, oh,

1633
01:31:58.760 --> 01:31:59.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to have to like bring her in

1634
01:32:00.000 --> 01:32:05.239
<v Speaker 1>and come back again. So yeah, she just stayed here. Instead,

1635
01:32:05.960 --> 01:32:10.119
<v Speaker 1>we do have said Mere Civilization seven, which will be

1636
01:32:10.159 --> 01:32:15.039
<v Speaker 1>the Biger really said Meyer, sorry, release of this uh

1637
01:32:16.199 --> 01:32:19.920
<v Speaker 1>this week coming on everything. I know you're waiting on

1638
01:32:20.000 --> 01:32:22.079
<v Speaker 1>that code. Still, hopefully you do get it so we

1639
01:32:22.199 --> 01:32:26.720
<v Speaker 1>can talk about it next week. But you know, also

1640
01:32:26.800 --> 01:32:30.039
<v Speaker 1>there's that they did have the special edition you could

1641
01:32:30.039 --> 01:32:33.199
<v Speaker 1>buy to play early, which I sawesome people that I playing.

1642
01:32:33.720 --> 01:32:36.680
<v Speaker 1>People are happy, Yeah, definitely not because it was the

1643
01:32:36.760 --> 01:32:38.640
<v Speaker 1>day that the PSN went down, so if you had

1644
01:32:38.640 --> 01:32:41.600
<v Speaker 1>it on PlayStation they can either.

1645
01:32:42.880 --> 01:32:43.600
<v Speaker 2>People are pissed.

1646
01:32:43.760 --> 01:32:47.399
<v Speaker 1>So we'll get into that, I guess once it actually

1647
01:32:47.560 --> 01:32:50.960
<v Speaker 1>releases another legacy game. Those games are still coming out.

1648

<v Speaker 1>Steal In Sorcery comes out in the twelfth. Alien Rogue

1649
01:32:56.439 --> 01:32:59.760
<v Speaker 1>Incursion also releases on the thirteenth, probably twenty five if

1650
01:32:59.760 --> 01:33:03.520
<v Speaker 1>you wanted to get your Rugby fix problem with that

1651
01:33:04.199 --> 01:33:07.520

1652
01:33:07.560 --> 01:33:10.439

1653
01:33:10.560 --> 01:33:13.279
<v Speaker 1>I didn't try to go get the review code because

1654
01:33:13.279 --> 01:33:16.640
<v Speaker 1>I can't. It's just there's too many games coming out.

1655
01:33:17.319 --> 01:33:21.000
<v Speaker 1>After Love EP, which is the final game from the

1656
01:33:21.159 --> 01:33:24.199
<v Speaker 1>creator of Oh My Gosh, I can't think of the

1657
01:33:24.319 --> 01:33:30.760
<v Speaker 1>name the Coffee Coffee Talk Games because then he passed away.

1658
01:33:32.159 --> 01:33:34.119
<v Speaker 1>This is the last one, so I'm kind of been

1659
01:33:34.119 --> 01:33:35.840
<v Speaker 1>looking forward to And this one also has like a

1660
01:33:35.960 --> 01:33:39.239
<v Speaker 1>guitar hero kind of tinge a little bit to it too,

1661
01:33:39.319 --> 01:33:42.880
<v Speaker 1>has the rhythm games based gameplay when they have to

1662
01:33:42.960 --> 01:33:47.640
<v Speaker 1>do like songs and stuff like that. Also, Legend of

01:34:12.760 --> 01:34:16.520
<v Speaker 1>original one of the original girl games, right when when

1670
01:34:16.720 --> 01:34:19.319
<v Speaker 1>girl when girl gamers had to play things with only

1671
01:34:19.399 --> 01:34:23.720
<v Speaker 1>female leads or something, you know of that variety or

1672
