I've 75 00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:29.319 encountered a lot of old men walking to a pool 76 00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:33.040 hall that bring their own cues. Oh yeah, is that yeah? 77 00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:34.959 Is that like too much pieces? 78 00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:37.600 I have two pool poles in my storage here. 79 00:04:37.639 --> 00:04:40.319 It's like bowling balls.

You bring your own bowling ball, 83 00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:46.680 You're going to be the same guy that brings your 84 00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:47.879 own pool queue for sure. 85 00:04:48.040 --> 00:04:50.439 I bet fifty percent of them have flames on them. 86 00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:52.439 Oh I wish, I wish. 87 00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:54.319 Maybe maybe I want to say fifty one.

I want to do 91 00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:05.560 the game thing. 92 00:05:05.639 --> 00:05:07.759 There's always gonna be like leagues and people who take 93 00:05:07.800 --> 00:05:10.040 it super seriously and they always have their own ship. 94 00:05:10.279 --> 00:05:12.759 That makes I mean, all this makes sense, right, because 95 00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:15.920 all the stock stuff is it's it's garbage, it's you know, 96 00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:17.000 it's been through the ringer. 97 00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:19.879 Sure, sure, sure, sure sure. I'm trying to think of 98 00:05:19.879 --> 00:05:23.399 another sport where you would just rock the default stuff. 99 00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:24.800 But I guess if. 100 00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:29.199 Yeah, yeah, the ones where has to be provided by 101 00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:32.680 the league itself, right, Yeah. 102 00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:32.399 There's very few. 103 00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:35.560 I mean, I guess yeah, not even like people bring 104 00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:38.839 their their own bats to batting cages obviously your own 105 00:05:38.839 --> 00:05:40.160 clubs to the golf course. 106 00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:42.959 I betles. 107 00:05:43.879 --> 00:05:46.160 Okay, okay, you know what word in the in the 108 00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:49.319 twitch chat? Would I use default coffee gear? You're right now, 109 00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:51.959 it all makes sense, right, It just had to be 110 00:05:51.959 --> 00:05:52.839 put in perspective. 111 00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:56.279 I think I think I'm letting golf we get to me. 112 00:05:56.319 --> 00:05:58.560 I think I'm sorry to take it too seriously. I 113 00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:03.600 don't know. I stayed up like watching videos about the 114 00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:06.680 actual Pebble Beach, not the Siga Saturday Quick Stadler, for 115 00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:09.120 like three hours last night. I've learned a lot about 116 00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:14.000 that course and why there's First I think there's just 117 00:06:14.040 --> 00:06:17.600 a Golf Digest overview of it. Then there's some like Young, 118 00:06:17.639 --> 00:06:20.120 there's some golf influenc there who just has a very 119 00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:23.319 popular golf channel. He went the Pebble Beach for the 120 00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:25.920 first time, so I watched him play eighteen holes on it. 121 00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:31.000 Then there was like a restored classic matchup of Jack 122 00:06:31.079 --> 00:06:34.240 Nicholas and got some guy that was older than him 123 00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:35.920 at the time. He's just in his twenties then who 124 00:06:35.959 --> 00:06:38.439 was like a legend, and they played eighteen on head 125 00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:40.519 and it was this really interesting match. So yeah, I'm like, 126 00:06:41.399 --> 00:06:43.319 I don't know if it's that or if it's just 127 00:06:43.480 --> 00:06:47.399 the festive golf week atmosphere, but I just I'm like, really, in. 128 00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:51.120 A golf it's an interesting course, right, it's like very famous. 129 00:06:51.199 --> 00:06:52.959 It's like uh oh, it's beautiful. 130 00:06:53.600 --> 00:06:57.000 It's very strange, right and difficult, and it's even it's 131 00:06:57.040 --> 00:06:59.480 even better when you realize it's naturally occurring. 132 00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:03.560 Yeah, he got me on the side. 133 00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:09.040 Wait be young golf influencers, and I'm thinking, like, their 134 00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:12.680 videos can't just be like unedited eighteen holes, right, it's 135 00:07:12.720 --> 00:07:14.920 gotta be like, is it like mister beasted up? 136 00:07:16.480 --> 00:07:16.560 What? 137 00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:17.879 This one wasn't that bad. 138 00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:21.000 It was mostly he played eighteen holes and it was cut, 139 00:07:21.079 --> 00:07:22.600 so you know, it was like a forty five minute 140 00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:25.639 video of him doing all that and talking about the 141 00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:27.839 course and you know some goose here. I bet he 142 00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:31.079 probably has more gimmicky videos too, but this one, like 143 00:07:31.160 --> 00:07:32.920 you know, it's just I'm playing Pebble Beach for the 144 00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:35.480 first time. This is a dream come true. You talking 145 00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:37.399 about some of the history, like the seventh hole. Is 146 00:07:37.399 --> 00:07:39.759 that par three that's right there on the cliff by 147 00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:42.639 the ocean. It's very dramatic and beautiful because that's a 148 00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:45.519 very famous hole. Craig Staydler did tell me that, and 149 00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:46.920 now I understand. 150 00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:50.920 Right, Yes, yes, he was very supportive, the grandfather figure 151 00:07:50.959 --> 00:07:53.680 I never had until he wasn't he got I saw 152 00:07:53.720 --> 00:07:57.680 a video that he had to control his rage. Of course, I. 153 00:07:57.720 --> 00:07:59.759 Told you, like, I have no evidence of this, but 154 00:07:59.800 --> 00:08:01.160 he just looks like a person with. 155 00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:03.959 An anger management problem. And then you do have evidence. 156 00:08:03.959 --> 00:08:05.560 There's literally a video where he talks about how he 157 00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:08.040 control of anger management issues. 158 00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:11.040 And that's why he got really into wine. 159 00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:14.560 Maybe Mike Maharty, Yeah, yes, yes. 160 00:08:14.439 --> 00:08:17.279 Yes, one of the same one and the same.

I'm not I'm 1102 00:53:34.639 --> 00:53:37.000 never gonna like look that across in the face, but 1103 00:53:37.079 --> 00:53:40.079 it's like, I I can't do that with your game, 1104 00:53:40.599 --> 00:53:43.000 especially in such a densely. 1105 00:53:42.760 --> 00:53:47.320 Packed fifteen games. I need to do baby Steps. 1106 00:53:47.360 --> 00:53:51.280 I haven't even done anything outside of that unfinished baby steps. 1107 00:53:51.320 --> 00:53:54.800 Are you kidding me? You're the baby Yeah, I gotta 1108 00:53:54.800 --> 00:53:55.599 take some steps. 1109 00:53:55.760 --> 00:53:56.159 Anyway. 1110 00:53:56.480 --> 00:53:58.320 I really do like Silent Hill. I think it is 1111 00:53:58.599 --> 00:54:01.079 is really good. Say for like maybe one or two 1112 00:54:01.119 --> 00:54:04.519 areas where I'm just like, all right, we this is 1113 00:54:04.639 --> 00:54:08.039 maybe a little repetitive, but yeah, I'm super into. 1114 00:54:07.960 --> 00:54:09.639 What do you What do you think, Mike? Yeah, yeah, 1115 00:54:09.639 --> 00:54:12.320 I checked out maybe the first three hours or so 1116 00:54:12.679 --> 00:54:15.559 and was definitely enjoying myself. 1117 00:54:15.599 --> 00:54:16.599 I love just the setting. 1118 00:54:17.360 --> 00:54:20.800 Anytime something is said in that very rural kind of Japan, 1119 00:54:20.920 --> 00:54:24.920 which for me is basically just this persona flour in 1120 00:54:25.000 --> 00:54:26.480 my neighbor totoro. 1121 00:54:26.159 --> 00:54:28.280 Those are the three things I associate to say. 1122 00:54:28.400 --> 00:54:31.519 But I always really like it. It's a very interesting 1123 00:54:31.679 --> 00:54:36.800 kind of vibe and aesthetic. But yeah, I see people 1124 00:54:36.880 --> 00:54:38.920 talk about the combat and some people complain about it. 1125 00:54:39.079 --> 00:54:43.400 I love it all specifically because it's kind of clunky 1126 00:54:43.719 --> 00:54:45.960 and not sophisticated, just like how it should feel for 1127 00:54:46.119 --> 00:54:50.639 just some you know Japanese schoolgirl who's wielding a pipe. 1128 00:54:50.800 --> 00:54:53.199 Right, you know, it's not dark souls, it's not some 1129 00:54:53.480 --> 00:54:55.199 you know, intense action game. 1130 00:54:55.519 --> 00:54:57.960 Yeah, don't you off combos, you know what I mean, Like. 1131 00:54:58.360 --> 00:55:00.840 Yeah, she's just kind of swinging shit the kids. 1132 00:55:00.840 --> 00:55:03.159 It's just a little kid. But even though there is 1133 00:55:03.239 --> 00:55:06.039 still like good mechanics to it and good kind of 1134 00:55:06.159 --> 00:55:09.960 game logic and reasoning there without it necessarily devolving to 1135 00:55:10.239 --> 00:55:12.760 just oh it's dark souls or you know, oh it's 1136 00:55:12.840 --> 00:55:15.119 it's this or that. I was actually surprised how good, 1137 00:55:15.480 --> 00:55:17.440 Like I did like a big boss fight right where 1138 00:55:17.440 --> 00:55:20.880 I just actually had a whole boss encounter situation going on. 1139 00:55:21.920 --> 00:55:24.320 There are some fun gimmicks, especially with him disappearing and 1140 00:55:24.440 --> 00:55:26.480 kind of reappearing somewhere. I had to like listen for 1141 00:55:26.639 --> 00:55:28.079 him and find him and hit him before he got 1142 00:55:28.079 --> 00:55:29.920 off some attack. I was like, jeez, this is a 1143 00:55:30.039 --> 00:55:33.159 pretty good boss fight, which, you know, sound Hill has 1144 00:55:33.159 --> 00:55:34.960 actually not been bad at that. The sound Hill two 1145 00:55:35.000 --> 00:55:37.639 roommake had some good ones too, but sometimes you don't 1146 00:55:37.679 --> 00:55:41.239 necessarily associate Silent Hill with bosses. Having a good experience 1147 00:55:41.360 --> 00:55:44.599 there was nice. But yeah, I'm just kind of I'm 1148 00:55:44.800 --> 00:55:47.840 loving the whole sort of vibe, the whole setup, The 1149 00:55:47.880 --> 00:55:52.519 story is intriguing, you know, I think the themes skirt 1150 00:55:52.599 --> 00:55:54.840 a fine line of being pretty obvious or what they are, 1151 00:55:54.960 --> 00:55:57.440 but not feeling spoon fed at the same time. 1152 00:55:57.559 --> 00:55:58.519 So all of that is good. 1153 00:55:58.559 --> 00:56:01.239 I'm excited someone play more. It feels like a perfect 1154 00:56:01.239 --> 00:56:04.639 little October game. I don't mean little disparagingly, but you know, 1155 00:56:04.880 --> 00:56:06.280 it's a great game for this season. 1156 00:56:06.840 --> 00:56:09.599 I will say this may be spoilers for some people, 1157 00:56:09.719 --> 00:56:12.280 but I'll just keep it as vague as possible. And 1158 00:56:12.360 --> 00:56:15.679 for folks that have already completed Silent Hill f you 1159 00:56:16.000 --> 00:56:18.679 will be well aware that this game actually shares a 1160 00:56:18.800 --> 00:56:23.320 lot with Sonic Unleashed. And that's all I'm gonna say 1161 00:56:23.320 --> 00:56:23.599 about that. 1162 00:56:23.880 --> 00:56:24.679 I can't play it now. 1163 00:56:24.719 --> 00:56:25.440 You just ruined it. 1164 00:56:26.159 --> 00:56:29.320 Yeah, that was a spoiler the entire experience for me. 1165 00:56:30.159 --> 00:56:31.360 I don't know. If you put that on the back 1166 00:56:31.360 --> 00:56:33.760 of the box, you know. Yeah, that's good. 1167 00:56:33.840 --> 00:56:35.239 People won't buy it. They're like, why do I even 1168 00:56:35.280 --> 00:56:35.719 need to play it? 1169 00:56:35.800 --> 00:56:35.920 Now? 1170 00:56:36.280 --> 00:56:37.960 That's what a detour? 1171 00:56:38.199 --> 00:56:41.880 Is that? The way with the wear hoog? Yeah, Jeff 1172 00:56:41.920 --> 00:56:46.440 Grubb speaking about beating games, You're not the backlar. Isn't 1173 00:56:46.440 --> 00:56:52.280 the only Jeff finishing games? You conquered baby Steps? Yeah 1174 00:56:52.400 --> 00:56:53.039 this morning? 1175 00:56:53.159 --> 00:56:58.000 Actually, so I had spent several streams in the morning 1176 00:56:58.079 --> 00:57:00.920 here on Giant Bomb, trying to conquered the Man Breaker, 1177 00:57:01.000 --> 00:57:03.559 which is this big mountain where they they give you 1178 00:57:03.599 --> 00:57:05.320 the option to go up the stairs, and that was 1179 00:57:05.320 --> 00:57:08.119 a really powerful, awesome thing to do, and it was 1180 00:57:08.239 --> 00:57:09.639 it was a lot of fun to actually get through there. 1181 00:57:09.639 --> 00:57:11.519 And then there's a little bit more after that. There's 1182 00:57:11.559 --> 00:57:13.599 apparently a couple paths you can go to get up 1183 00:57:13.599 --> 00:57:16.039 to this final bit of the mountain. But the option 1184 00:57:16.199 --> 00:57:18.320 I found myself taking without what even knowing was an option, 1185 00:57:18.400 --> 00:57:19.719 It just felt like the way to go was this 1186 00:57:20.599 --> 00:57:23.760 crash train. It's an uncharted two and it's got a 1187 00:57:23.800 --> 00:57:25.639 bunch of luggage over the place and you got to 1188 00:57:25.639 --> 00:57:27.719 get your foot in on there. But because it's because 1189 00:57:27.719 --> 00:57:30.639 you're inside and it's at a slant, it like really 1190 00:57:30.880 --> 00:57:32.880 is disorienting because you just feel like, okay, am I 1191 00:57:32.920 --> 00:57:34.599 standing upright and it's like, oh no, I'm going to 1192 00:57:34.679 --> 00:57:36.599 lean to the left here. That was a lot of 1193 00:57:36.639 --> 00:57:39.480 fun to get through, although kind of a little bit 1194 00:57:39.559 --> 00:57:43.760 child's play after the Man Breaker, which was welcome. After that, 1195 00:57:43.840 --> 00:57:47.000 there's just like a small little snow section. A guy 1196 00:57:47.199 --> 00:57:49.719 gets trapped under a boulder in a cave and stuff 1197 00:57:49.760 --> 00:57:51.960 like that, I get to talk to him. But yeah, 1198 00:57:52.000 --> 00:57:54.280 you eventually get up this mountain and you go into 1199 00:57:54.519 --> 00:57:57.599 a house and you're one of the people that you've 1200 00:57:57.599 --> 00:57:59.480 been there talking to the whole time, is in this 1201 00:57:59.599 --> 00:58:02.559 house cabin, and it just has this such a sweet 1202 00:58:02.679 --> 00:58:05.400 ending of Nate is this character that you're playing as, 1203 00:58:05.880 --> 00:58:08.000 and every conversation he has, he's just trying to get 1204 00:58:08.039 --> 00:58:09.480 out of it. He doesn't want to bother anyone. He 1205 00:58:09.480 --> 00:58:12.719 doesn't feel worthy of anyone's time. He doesn't like feel 1206 00:58:12.760 --> 00:58:16.559 like he's like worthy of any space at all. Actually, 1207 00:58:17.000 --> 00:58:20.000 and the game ends with you knocking on this cabin 1208 00:58:20.079 --> 00:58:23.480 door and just being afraid still but kind of you 1209 00:58:23.480 --> 00:58:25.440 could see he's working up his courage and finally he 1210 00:58:25.559 --> 00:58:28.079 just asks, Hey, can I come inside? He finally asks 1211 00:58:28.119 --> 00:58:31.400 for help, and it was a really like moving, powerful 1212 00:58:31.440 --> 00:58:33.960 moment for this character that just can't get his shit 1213 00:58:34.039 --> 00:58:36.920 together at all. But you I walked ninety thousand steps. 1214 00:58:36.960 --> 00:58:38.800 The game told me ninety thousand steps to get to 1215 00:58:38.840 --> 00:58:41.079 the end of this game, and you know, he did 1216 00:58:41.119 --> 00:58:43.000 all that. He actually did accomplish all that, he did 1217 00:58:43.079 --> 00:58:45.000 conquer the Man Breaker, he did get through all these things, 1218 00:58:45.320 --> 00:58:48.320 and so he kind of is capable, but the thing 1219 00:58:48.400 --> 00:58:50.159 that was hardest for him was just asking for help 1220 00:58:50.239 --> 00:58:51.480 and it hit real hard. 1221 00:58:51.679 --> 00:58:53.960 And so get through that with chat this morning, and 1222 00:58:54.079 --> 00:58:55.320 I just I love this game. 1223 00:58:55.519 --> 00:58:59.400 It is so well done and it's it definitely feels 1224 00:58:59.480 --> 00:59:02.239 like the right way to make one of these right now, 1225 00:59:02.360 --> 00:59:06.119 where sure it's punishing, but it's not as punishing as 1226 00:59:06.159 --> 00:59:08.760 something like Getting Over It, where Getting Over It is 1227 00:59:08.800 --> 00:59:10.800 another Benetfotty game where you're in the pot and you 1228 00:59:10.880 --> 00:59:12.719 have the hammer and you're swinging around trying to like 1229 00:59:13.000 --> 00:59:15.199 pull yourself up, and you could fail in that game 1230 00:59:15.239 --> 00:59:18.119 to the point where you could really do at any moment, 1231 00:59:18.360 --> 00:59:20.440 can fall all the way back to the beginning. Here, 1232 00:59:20.519 --> 00:59:23.360 it's like usually you could fall a long way, but 1233 00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:26.639 it's gonna be to a certain like relative checkpoint. And 1234 00:59:27.000 --> 00:59:30.000 even when you do that, the game remains funny, It 1235 00:59:30.119 --> 00:59:32.639 remains fun to play. You always feel like you are 1236 00:59:32.800 --> 00:59:35.400 kind of learning something, and so it feels like the 1237 00:59:35.480 --> 00:59:38.719 most broadly appealing one of these that has been made, 1238 00:59:38.840 --> 00:59:40.599 Like it feels like it's made by people who's done 1239 00:59:40.599 --> 00:59:43.360 who have done this many times before and have learned 1240 00:59:43.360 --> 00:59:45.960 a lot of lessons and know now how to deliver 1241 00:59:46.440 --> 00:59:49.199 on this idea in a way that is fair but 1242 00:59:49.280 --> 00:59:51.760 also still brutal, in a way that's very, very fun 1243 00:59:51.840 --> 00:59:54.800 to watch. Yeah, it's a game that should have made 1244 00:59:54.840 --> 00:59:56.280 me rage a lot more than it did. And I 1245 00:59:56.360 --> 00:59:57.760 found myself just kind of being like, you know what, 1246 00:59:57.840 --> 01:00:00.880 I'm ready to try again, and and yeah, it's it's 1247 01:00:00.960 --> 01:00:03.199 up there for me, I am really impressed with it, 1248 01:00:03.360 --> 01:00:04.039 really happy with it. 1249 01:00:04.280 --> 01:00:08.280 How did you find again, I'm only coming from the 1250 01:00:08.920 --> 01:00:10.840 first time we touched it, but like, how did you 1251 01:00:10.920 --> 01:00:15.440 find the sort of like understanding of like what you're 1252 01:00:15.519 --> 01:00:18.079 really meant to do? Because I feel like, for me, 1253 01:00:18.840 --> 01:00:21.440 you know this game, I have not been able to 1254 01:00:21.679 --> 01:00:26.119 isolate myself from seeing more, you know, videos about it. 1255 01:00:26.199 --> 01:00:28.800 Obviously you playing it, how do you feel about how 1256 01:00:28.880 --> 01:00:31.960 all that was presented and whether or not you think 1257 01:00:32.039 --> 01:00:34.840 it's a really like satisfying way to be presented with 1258 01:00:34.880 --> 01:00:35.159 the game? 1259 01:00:35.639 --> 01:00:38.400 Yeah, so so, yeah, it's it can be discouraging at 1260 01:00:38.440 --> 01:00:40.480 first because you don't know where you're going and you 1261 01:00:40.559 --> 01:00:45.199 feel lost. Eventually, though, that very quickly settles into being like, oh, 1262 01:00:46.239 --> 01:00:48.119 that's part of what's happening here. It's not just that 1263 01:00:48.199 --> 01:00:50.719 he's bad at walking. He's bad at walking and also 1264 01:00:50.880 --> 01:00:52.920 doesn't know where to go, and it's like, these these 1265 01:00:53.039 --> 01:00:57.079 dual factors working against the character are are really the 1266 01:00:57.199 --> 01:00:59.320 both things to be overcome, and it's like, well, what 1267 01:00:59.400 --> 01:01:01.280 do you do to solve this? I guess I could 1268 01:01:01.280 --> 01:01:03.039 try to like I can go look it up, or 1269 01:01:03.119 --> 01:01:04.920 I could just keep walking forward and see if I 1270 01:01:05.000 --> 01:01:07.960 eventually figure something out. Now, the game does sort of 1271 01:01:08.039 --> 01:01:11.599 offer up some interesting ways of making you feel like, Okay, 1272 01:01:11.599 --> 01:01:14.480 if I do start going forward, even if I might 1273 01:01:14.559 --> 01:01:16.000 not know if I'm going the right way, maybe I'm 1274 01:01:16.039 --> 01:01:16.679 going the wrong way. 1275 01:01:17.000 --> 01:01:17.920 There is a chance. 1276 01:01:18.039 --> 01:01:20.960 It's not like it's allowsy with this stuff, but there's 1277 01:01:20.960 --> 01:01:23.119 a chance you're going to run into some cut scene 1278 01:01:23.519 --> 01:01:25.639 that you wouldn't have seen had you not gone the 1279 01:01:25.679 --> 01:01:28.679 wrong way, and that's really well done. So there's one 1280 01:01:28.760 --> 01:01:31.400 early on where I was super lost. There's point in 1281 01:01:31.440 --> 01:01:34.239 the kind of funny race where both me and snowbike 1282 01:01:34.280 --> 01:01:35.559 Mic are trying to find out where to go, and 1283 01:01:35.599 --> 01:01:37.719 we're like neck and neck, and I went to the 1284 01:01:37.800 --> 01:01:39.559 left and he went to the right, and I was 1285 01:01:39.559 --> 01:01:41.280 stuck at this place because I didn't see the pathway 1286 01:01:41.320 --> 01:01:42.639 to the left for a very long time. So I 1287 01:01:42.760 --> 01:01:44.599 was going around the map and it loops. It's a 1288 01:01:45.039 --> 01:01:47.519 complete sphere. So you go from you go to one 1289 01:01:47.559 --> 01:01:49.119 side of the map, you go one more step and 1290 01:01:49.199 --> 01:01:50.519 now you're on the far left side of the map. 1291 01:01:50.559 --> 01:01:51.159 You can't tell that. 1292 01:01:51.199 --> 01:01:52.679 When you're actually in the game, but there's a map 1293 01:01:52.760 --> 01:01:54.440 later that kind of showed you that's what was happening. 1294 01:01:54.920 --> 01:01:56.519 I was doing that over and over again, and I 1295 01:01:56.559 --> 01:01:59.079 got to this like sand cast or this giant sand cast, 1296 01:01:59.159 --> 01:02:00.360 and I'm like, let me get to the top of this, 1297 01:02:00.400 --> 01:02:02.519 see if there's anything up there. And the only thing 1298 01:02:02.639 --> 01:02:06.199 up there was two little naked men who just kind 1299 01:02:06.239 --> 01:02:08.199 of yelled at me, and I sat on one of 1300 01:02:08.239 --> 01:02:11.159 them on accident, and it was hilarious. They were all 1301 01:02:11.280 --> 01:02:15.079 voiced by Bennett Foddy. That's and finding that felt like, oh, 1302 01:02:15.159 --> 01:02:17.199 it's own reward, and there's a ton of that stuff. 1303 01:02:17.239 --> 01:02:20.320 There's so many hilarious cut scenes. I think that's the 1304 01:02:20.360 --> 01:02:22.440 thing the humor for me for a long time. I 1305 01:02:22.480 --> 01:02:24.039 guess not for a long time. For that first couple 1306 01:02:24.039 --> 01:02:25.800 of play sessions, I was like, this is funny, but 1307 01:02:25.840 --> 01:02:28.960 I'm not laughing out loud. It just keeps getting so 1308 01:02:29.079 --> 01:02:31.400 much more absurd, and you start to realize, oh, they're 1309 01:02:31.480 --> 01:02:34.159 improving this, and they're kind of just leaving in the 1310 01:02:34.360 --> 01:02:37.400 rough cuts of them laughing over each other's lines, and 1311 01:02:37.519 --> 01:02:40.719 it's super endearing. And trying to like not even trying 1312 01:02:40.760 --> 01:02:42.320 to find the next one of those, but thinking, oh, 1313 01:02:42.400 --> 01:02:44.639 I might find another one of those as I continue 1314 01:02:45.280 --> 01:02:47.760 was more than enough to make everything kind of feel 1315 01:02:47.800 --> 01:02:49.679 worth it. And then occasionally I'll find a cool little 1316 01:02:49.679 --> 01:02:51.840 puzzle segment where it's like, here is just a little 1317 01:02:51.920 --> 01:02:53.840 tower that you got to climb to the top of 1318 01:02:53.920 --> 01:02:56.039 and you'll either get a hat that either does nothing 1319 01:02:56.159 --> 01:02:58.800 or does something cool, or a fruit he yells about 1320 01:02:58.840 --> 01:03:02.039 finding a parse simon or whatever it's called, and that's 1321 01:03:02.400 --> 01:03:05.360 exciting as well. So I think it's like happy to 1322 01:03:05.400 --> 01:03:07.719 be the game it is, which is you should feel lost, 1323 01:03:07.960 --> 01:03:11.320 you should feel overwhelmed by every ticking, every step, but 1324 01:03:12.239 --> 01:03:14.440 it's not so harsh that it's never gonna make you 1325 01:03:14.519 --> 01:03:15.760 feel like you didn't get a reward. 1326 01:03:15.880 --> 01:03:19.639 It has that pretty often cool awesome right now. God, 1327 01:03:19.679 --> 01:03:21.360 I didn't think i'd have to check this out before 1328 01:03:21.440 --> 01:03:22.920 Game of the Year time, but I guess I got it. 1329 01:03:23.039 --> 01:03:24.719 It's very much a me game, Like it's not like 1330 01:03:24.840 --> 01:03:26.199 I'm gonna be out there on the streets trying to 1331 01:03:26.239 --> 01:03:28.559 hawk this to everybody. But I definitely see a lot 1332 01:03:28.599 --> 01:03:31.400 of people in chat when I was playing, being like, Hey, 1333 01:03:31.519 --> 01:03:33.320 I wasn't gonna try this out, and I've been watching 1334 01:03:33.360 --> 01:03:35.920 you play and it actually won me over, Like watching 1335 01:03:36.000 --> 01:03:37.760 this game be played, and it's like, I think there's 1336 01:03:37.960 --> 01:03:41.800 more to this game than like it's open. Critic Score says, 1337 01:03:41.960 --> 01:03:43.880 it's like, oh, you know, it's not for everybody, but 1338 01:03:43.960 --> 01:03:45.760 the people who it's four are really gonna like it. 1339 01:03:45.880 --> 01:03:48.960 It's definitely in this like certain classic games for me, 1340 01:03:49.079 --> 01:03:52.159 with like Octo Dead, where it's about moving a character 1341 01:03:52.239 --> 01:03:54.679 in a weird way, but it's telling a lot more 1342 01:03:54.760 --> 01:03:57.159 about like human nature and about your nature as a 1343 01:03:57.159 --> 01:03:58.639 player than you might even realize. 1344 01:03:59.320 --> 01:04:04.880 Fantastic of Fantastic, speaking about overwhelming, I have been enjoying, 1345 01:04:05.119 --> 01:04:11.320 but I've found Ghost of Yota be very, very overwhelming. Dan, 1346 01:04:11.360 --> 01:04:14.880 you talked about this a little bit last week on 1347 01:04:14.960 --> 01:04:21.480 the podcast because the embargo lifted and I had reserved 1348 01:04:21.519 --> 01:04:23.360 to myself that I wasn't going to check out Ghost 1349 01:04:23.360 --> 01:04:26.639 of Yota until the holidays, because we've talked a lot 1350 01:04:26.679 --> 01:04:30.119 about holiday kind of games, and this feels like one 1351 01:04:30.199 --> 01:04:33.119 you have to really sink your teeth into. And I'll 1352 01:04:33.159 --> 01:04:35.840 say this up top, I did not like Ghost of Tsushima. 1353 01:04:36.480 --> 01:04:38.639 Did not click with it at all. I don't quite 1354 01:04:38.719 --> 01:04:42.119 know why. Maybe I was expecting like different style of combat. 1355 01:04:42.239 --> 01:04:43.920 Maybe I was looking for a seci row at the time. 1356 01:04:44.480 --> 01:04:51.559 But something about this and maybe it is God, I 1357 01:04:51.639 --> 01:04:55.159 really forget her name, but the character that Erica plays, 1358 01:04:55.960 --> 01:04:58.519 and just like the characterization, I think it just it 1359 01:04:58.679 --> 01:05:00.800 hits a bit better. Maybe I'm digging the setup to 1360 01:05:00.880 --> 01:05:05.719 the story. But damn game, pretty game look good. 1361 01:05:05.920 --> 01:05:09.280 You all game pretty It's really it's unbelievably gorgeous. 1362 01:05:09.280 --> 01:05:11.519 And like, Jan, how are you finding like the open 1363 01:05:11.559 --> 01:05:13.440 world because it's got those elements from the first one, 1364 01:05:13.480 --> 01:05:15.199 with like the wind taking from place to place. But 1365 01:05:15.719 --> 01:05:17.719 I am finding myself just enjoying that open world a 1366 01:05:17.760 --> 01:05:18.679 lot more than Sushima. 1367 01:05:19.079 --> 01:05:21.679 I think that that's what I might be enjoying more. 1368 01:05:21.800 --> 01:05:25.519 And that's kind of the friction I'm encountering though, is that, 1369 01:05:25.800 --> 01:05:30.119 like I do enjoy the open world more, but because 1370 01:05:30.159 --> 01:05:32.760 I'm enjoying the open world more, it's kind of stalling 1371 01:05:32.840 --> 01:05:36.760 my overall progress in it. Sure, and this game just 1372 01:05:37.000 --> 01:05:40.679 is full of like the different cinematic styles you can 1373 01:05:40.719 --> 01:05:43.000 throw the game into. I tried playing it in black 1374 01:05:43.000 --> 01:05:46.239 and white for a second, but then again, game two 1375 01:05:46.480 --> 01:05:50.840 pretty to limit yourself to grayscale. Just like the effect 1376 01:05:50.880 --> 01:05:53.079 that they have with like the Ginka leaves and everything, 1377 01:05:53.239 --> 01:05:56.639 like as you're like trapesing through the fields. Absolutely gorgeous 1378 01:05:56.719 --> 01:05:58.320 and I just want to cook every single thing. 1379 01:05:58.719 --> 01:06:01.320 Also the duels and see how you're blown into the microphone. 1380 01:06:01.760 --> 01:06:06.679 Yes, yes, uh. And it's kind of a bummer that 1381 01:06:06.840 --> 01:06:10.800 this game uses the dual sense so well, because what 1382 01:06:11.000 --> 01:06:14.880 is the last game y'all would even think using duel sense? Yeah, 1383 01:06:14.920 --> 01:06:18.639 exactly Astro before that, even maybe. 1384 01:06:18.400 --> 01:06:21.039 The ratchet and clanking, Yeah, maybe ratri Yeah. It's great 1385 01:06:21.079 --> 01:06:22.920 when games do use it really well because I actually 1386 01:06:22.960 --> 01:06:26.039 do like a lot of that stuff, even the gimmicky things. 1387 01:06:26.079 --> 01:06:28.760 But a few people really kind of make good use 1388 01:06:28.840 --> 01:06:28.960 of it. 1389 01:06:29.239 --> 01:06:30.679 I mean, Sucker Bronx loved doing that. 1390 01:06:30.760 --> 01:06:32.440 They did that with the second son I remember the 1391 01:06:32.480 --> 01:06:34.519 first time I used a PS four track pad was 1392 01:06:35.000 --> 01:06:36.760 right checking that out, and like they would have things 1393 01:06:36.800 --> 01:06:38.760 where it's like, oh, swipe up to pull this tank 1394 01:06:38.840 --> 01:06:41.280 up and then shoot into it, and right, they love 1395 01:06:41.360 --> 01:06:42.559 using the hardware like, I. 1396 01:06:42.559 --> 01:06:45.360 Don't have much more to say about a Ghost of 1397 01:06:45.440 --> 01:06:48.480 Yota than you already covered last week, Dan, because I'm 1398 01:06:48.519 --> 01:06:53.920 still fairly early in, but like, I don't I can't 1399 01:06:53.960 --> 01:06:57.239 quite articulate why it is clicking with me more? Can 1400 01:06:57.559 --> 01:06:59.559 I ask this? Because please? He brings us up and chatting. 1401 01:06:59.559 --> 01:07:00.679 This was going to be my question. 1402 01:07:00.920 --> 01:07:05.119 So the first game was very big on hey, we 1403 01:07:05.239 --> 01:07:08.159 were still a video game, so we're gonna have moral choices, 1404 01:07:08.320 --> 01:07:10.639 and you're a Samuraid do you have to be you 1405 01:07:10.639 --> 01:07:13.039 should be honorable? And there was like the father character 1406 01:07:13.119 --> 01:07:15.119 who was like reminded you you should be honorable, and 1407 01:07:15.159 --> 01:07:17.039 then you had the option to be a sneaky little 1408 01:07:17.079 --> 01:07:19.960 assassin guy, but that was dishonorable, and the game was 1409 01:07:20.039 --> 01:07:21.800 saying you were naughty for doing that, or at least 1410 01:07:21.840 --> 01:07:23.559 that's how I read it. I don't know if it 1411 01:07:23.639 --> 01:07:25.960 was actually going through in like punishing you or anything, 1412 01:07:26.239 --> 01:07:28.360 but I certainly felt that way, and I was I'm 1413 01:07:28.440 --> 01:07:30.360 just like out a point where it's like, if you're 1414 01:07:30.360 --> 01:07:31.920 gonna put stuff in a game, let me decide if 1415 01:07:31.960 --> 01:07:32.559 it's good or bad. 1416 01:07:32.719 --> 01:07:33.480 I don't really need that. 1417 01:07:34.199 --> 01:07:36.760 But whatever that was the first game does the second 1418 01:07:36.800 --> 01:07:39.760 game maintain any of that. I guess you do still 1419 01:07:39.760 --> 01:07:41.320 have the choice to be because Dan showed me in 1420 01:07:41.599 --> 01:07:43.760 the Quick Look you can still like do the thing 1421 01:07:43.800 --> 01:07:46.199 where it's like, Okay, I'm going to announce that I'm 1422 01:07:46.239 --> 01:07:48.679 here as a samurai and do a showdown with a guy, 1423 01:07:48.719 --> 01:07:51.360 which I thought was cool, But I also think I 1424 01:07:51.440 --> 01:07:53.719 want the option to be equally weighted to like go 1425 01:07:53.840 --> 01:07:56.159 be a sneaky little ninja. Does it kind of open 1426 01:07:56.239 --> 01:07:56.519 you up? 1427 01:07:56.599 --> 01:07:59.239 Or what it doesn't like have like a larger system 1428 01:07:59.280 --> 01:08:01.320 that I've seen yet, Like you know, Infamous, you know, 1429 01:08:01.519 --> 01:08:04.880 was very just like you know, blue Glowy Halo guy 1430 01:08:05.000 --> 01:08:07.440 or Red devil horn guy. This is like you will 1431 01:08:07.480 --> 01:08:10.199 come upon certain scenes and stuff not even necessarily tied 1432 01:08:10.199 --> 01:08:12.079 to the story of just like are you gonna loot 1433 01:08:12.119 --> 01:08:14.079 all these corpses and kill the guy who says that 1434 01:08:14.159 --> 01:08:16.439 that's shitty? Or are you gonna like, you know, give 1435 01:08:16.520 --> 01:08:18.840 the guy money and help collect these masks and stuff 1436 01:08:18.880 --> 01:08:21.600 like that. Like there's like clear good and bad choices 1437 01:08:21.600 --> 01:08:23.279 you can make at times, but it doesn't feel like 1438 01:08:23.319 --> 01:08:25.840 it's a gimmick of the game, you know, and like 1439 01:08:25.880 --> 01:08:27.359 there's no one coming in to be like, oh, what'd 1440 01:08:27.399 --> 01:08:28.880 you do that, you know, it's it's not. 1441 01:08:28.960 --> 01:08:32.239 Like that, really, I think that's I actually, I think 1442 01:08:32.279 --> 01:08:34.399 that may be what it is for me where I 1443 01:08:34.520 --> 01:08:37.479 felt like I couldn't play Ghost of Tsushima in a 1444 01:08:37.520 --> 01:08:39.239 way that I want to play, where like I do 1445 01:08:39.399 --> 01:08:41.960 want to be a sneaky little guy sometimes and then 1446 01:08:42.079 --> 01:08:45.000 like if shit hits the fan, just go into a duel. 1447 01:08:45.119 --> 01:08:49.000 But here it's like I guess it's just like cool 1448 01:08:49.039 --> 01:08:50.800 with letting you do it. And I don't know, maybe 1449 01:08:50.880 --> 01:08:54.920 the character for there's so many parts of the internet 1450 01:08:54.960 --> 01:08:57.760 that have such a weird boner for Gin from the 1451 01:08:57.840 --> 01:09:00.680 original game about like oh, I can't really their reprice 1452 01:09:00.880 --> 01:09:03.079 Chin and he's not going to be the main character 1453 01:09:03.199 --> 01:09:06.720 for their second one. Fuck off. I find this main 1454 01:09:06.840 --> 01:09:10.479 character to be more of a person anything. 1455 01:09:10.640 --> 01:09:12.439 So it does it does like solve that problem of 1456 01:09:12.560 --> 01:09:14.840 like because she her whole thing is just revenge, right, 1457 01:09:14.960 --> 01:09:16.880 Like she's just out there to like do this, and 1458 01:09:17.159 --> 01:09:18.600 so who cares how you get revenge? 1459 01:09:19.000 --> 01:09:19.960 It frees them up. 1460 01:09:20.000 --> 01:09:21.800 It answers that question of like how do we deal 1461 01:09:21.840 --> 01:09:23.279 with this problem in the first game if it was 1462 01:09:23.319 --> 01:09:25.319 a problem, which I think they've decided by doing it 1463 01:09:25.399 --> 01:09:27.239 this way. In the second game that maybe it was 1464 01:09:27.359 --> 01:09:29.359 something they didn't want to repeat, so maybe not a problem, 1465 01:09:29.439 --> 01:09:31.199 but they wanted to try something different here, and so 1466 01:09:31.279 --> 01:09:32.720 they were gonna need a different character. 1467 01:09:33.079 --> 01:09:36.560 Yeah, and anyway, I there's so many games coming out, 1468 01:09:36.640 --> 01:09:39.279 but I do just find myself just firing this up 1469 01:09:39.880 --> 01:09:42.880 and staring at it, just like letting the wind blow. 1470 01:09:43.239 --> 01:09:47.720 And now I think I finally understand Brad Shoemaker. 1471 01:09:48.560 --> 01:09:54.000 Oh no, really, there's just no you don't now, I'm sorry. Samurai. 1472 01:09:55.239 --> 01:09:59.159 Yes, maybe you have called him that, Yeah, I mean 1473 01:09:59.399 --> 01:10:01.840 behind it se yeah, behind the scenes, we would call 1474 01:10:01.920 --> 01:10:05.680 him the last Samurai. Yes, yeah, yeah. 1475 01:10:05.760 --> 01:10:09.920 It was a biograph biography about him, biography and biograph. 1476 01:10:11.640 --> 01:10:13.479 I think you were there this This might have been 1477 01:10:13.640 --> 01:10:15.319 either my first or second game of the year. But 1478 01:10:16.000 --> 01:10:19.600 Brad had gone on about how how he had enjoyed 1479 01:10:19.640 --> 01:10:22.359 so much of Red Dead Redemption two and just like 1480 01:10:23.439 --> 01:10:25.560 living in the world and kind of just like losing 1481 01:10:25.640 --> 01:10:30.119 time in it. Yeah. Yeah, And then I could easily 1482 01:10:30.239 --> 01:10:35.279 see myself doing that in Ghost of Yote and kind 1483 01:10:35.279 --> 01:10:39.119 of like the same way that that Brad had enjoyed 1484 01:10:39.199 --> 01:10:42.279 all the bits and pieces around the main story of 1485 01:10:43.159 --> 01:10:45.920 Red Dead Redemption two. I can see myself just like 1486 01:10:46.119 --> 01:10:49.479 roaming across the fields and just like basking it in. 1487 01:10:50.079 --> 01:10:53.239 This may be the only instance I will say that 1488 01:10:53.399 --> 01:10:57.479 I think a game sent would be cool for that Jesus. 1489 01:10:57.560 --> 01:10:59.279 Yeah, yeah, it'd be pretty good for the most part. 1490 01:10:59.319 --> 01:11:01.680 And it's like the whole ship and all that. Than 1491 01:11:02.279 --> 01:11:03.760 I'm with you on the Red Dead two thing, But 1492 01:11:03.920 --> 01:11:05.960 like you know, it does do the thing that like 1493 01:11:06.479 --> 01:11:08.119 makes me like it more than Red Dead two in 1494 01:11:08.159 --> 01:11:11.800 the way that like, if you're writing past a fraud 1495 01:11:12.039 --> 01:11:13.600 is that a word, I don't know, something you can 1496 01:11:13.680 --> 01:11:14.000 pick up. 1497 01:11:14.399 --> 01:11:15.960 You can just hit R two and it just picks 1498 01:11:16.000 --> 01:11:16.239 it up. 1499 01:11:16.279 --> 01:11:20.439 It wears like Red Dead, Get off my horse's fraud, 1500 01:11:20.640 --> 01:11:21.079 you know, like. 1501 01:11:22.840 --> 01:11:24.439 Arthur, you got there, thank you, thank you. 1502 01:11:25.399 --> 01:11:25.600 Yeah. 1503 01:11:27.039 --> 01:11:30.520 It's not a person no nuts. 1504 01:11:31.319 --> 01:11:32.880 Yeah, I mean this is like not afraid to be 1505 01:11:33.039 --> 01:11:34.640 video gaming in that way where it's like there's some 1506 01:11:34.720 --> 01:11:36.279 quality of life stuff and every once in a while, 1507 01:11:36.359 --> 01:11:38.039 like it's like you don't need to do the cooking 1508 01:11:38.119 --> 01:11:39.560 mini game, we got you, you know, just give you 1509 01:11:39.560 --> 01:11:40.119 a boost, you know. 1510 01:11:40.319 --> 01:11:43.079 So it's not as slavish to that as as Red 1511 01:11:43.159 --> 01:11:43.439 Dead is. 1512 01:11:44.760 --> 01:11:46.840 But the thing this also reminded me of is that 1513 01:11:46.920 --> 01:11:51.159 Assassin's Creed Shadows came out this year. It's oh boy, 1514 01:11:51.800 --> 01:11:53.439 uh not a year in a fair. 1515 01:11:53.279 --> 01:11:55.039 Amount of that, which is one of the reasons why 1516 01:11:55.079 --> 01:11:57.399 I'm not like chopping at the bit to get into OTA, 1517 01:11:57.479 --> 01:11:59.479 which is not fair to Ota, but that's just where 1518 01:11:59.479 --> 01:11:59.760 I'm at. 1519 01:12:00.680 --> 01:12:03.600 I think I may be more of a two D 1520 01:12:04.000 --> 01:12:07.760 Ninja mood because I've yet to check out the Shanoby 1521 01:12:07.880 --> 01:12:11.079 game and Sean super Dan, you were also super high, 1522 01:12:11.319 --> 01:12:14.159 so god, that is on the list. I feel like 1523 01:12:14.279 --> 01:12:17.520 all these games are consuming me. But Dan Reiker, yes, 1524 01:12:17.680 --> 01:12:21.960 you have been playing consume me? I yeah, I started 1525 01:12:22.000 --> 01:12:25.079 it last night. I started it. I didn't really know 1526 01:12:25.119 --> 01:12:25.560 what it was. 1527 01:12:25.720 --> 01:12:26.039 I don't know. 1528 01:12:26.079 --> 01:12:27.880 I feel like I saw some like posts about it 1529 01:12:27.960 --> 01:12:29.720 where I was like, it's gonna be one of those 1530 01:12:29.840 --> 01:12:32.479 really narrative games that are probably extremely like like a 1531 01:12:32.560 --> 01:12:35.039 desk Belote or something like that, where it's just like, Okay, 1532 01:12:35.159 --> 01:12:37.880 I can recognize the craft inness, but like, typically I 1533 01:12:37.920 --> 01:12:41.159 don't enjoy playing those type of games, And uh, what's 1534 01:12:41.199 --> 01:12:45.079 that smirk backler, it's the isn't it below te Probably 1535 01:12:45.119 --> 01:12:50.560 I assume no, yes, yes, so, but Bonk was playing it, 1536 01:12:50.840 --> 01:12:52.960 and Banc was really enjoying it and telling me about it, 1537 01:12:53.039 --> 01:12:55.000 and she was like she liking it to Warrio where, 1538 01:12:55.079 --> 01:12:57.239 which is like, oh, okay, I'm immediately interested in now 1539 01:12:57.319 --> 01:12:58.640 with like a lot of little mini games and stuff. 1540 01:12:58.960 --> 01:13:01.640 But then she told me it's it is about disordered eating, 1541 01:13:02.279 --> 01:13:04.960 and that is something I did not realize. That's what 1542 01:13:05.039 --> 01:13:07.079 the game was about. And that is something I learned 1543 01:13:07.079 --> 01:13:09.039 a lot about, you know, over ten years ago when 1544 01:13:09.079 --> 01:13:11.039 I met Bianca, and one of the first things she 1545 01:13:11.119 --> 01:13:13.239 told me was that before meeting me, she had really 1546 01:13:13.239 --> 01:13:17.359 struggled with anorexia. And I didn't really know anything about it. 1547 01:13:17.520 --> 01:13:20.399 I'd never really known anyone that struggled with disordered eating, 1548 01:13:20.399 --> 01:13:23.159 at least to my knowledge, and so yeah, I learned 1549 01:13:23.199 --> 01:13:25.199 a lot about it early on. And it's like it 1550 01:13:25.319 --> 01:13:27.960 was very eye opening in that, like, you know, if 1551 01:13:28.000 --> 01:13:31.560 someone's never experienced anxiety. I've run into these people that 1552 01:13:31.640 --> 01:13:33.079 are like, chill out, what are you worried about it? 1553 01:13:33.079 --> 01:13:35.039 And it's like, yeah, not at works. That's that's not 1554 01:13:35.119 --> 01:13:36.760 how it works at all. I boy, I I'd love 1555 01:13:36.800 --> 01:13:38.680 to just chill out. That'd be great. The same way 1556 01:13:38.720 --> 01:13:40.600 that you know, some people if they hear about annarexia, 1557 01:13:40.840 --> 01:13:42.840 just you a cheezberger. Why don't you just eat a cheeseburger? 1558 01:13:42.880 --> 01:13:46.000 And it's like, through talking to her about it, I 1559 01:13:46.159 --> 01:13:48.640 learned so much about what it is and the control 1560 01:13:48.760 --> 01:13:51.119 factor of it and how it just kind of consumes 1561 01:13:51.239 --> 01:13:53.680 your you're thinking every day. And I remember she I 1562 01:13:53.800 --> 01:13:55.439 read I want to understand it more, and I read 1563 01:13:55.439 --> 01:13:58.760 a Porcetta Rossi's book about it. She was from Arrested Development. Yeah, 1564 01:13:58.840 --> 01:14:01.680 she struggled with that. So basically, I just I learned 1565 01:14:01.680 --> 01:14:05.319 a lot about it back then and I played this 1566 01:14:05.439 --> 01:14:07.760 game and talking to Bank about it too, it's like 1567 01:14:07.840 --> 01:14:11.319 she's like, yeah, this is like such an interesting way 1568 01:14:11.560 --> 01:14:17.600 to illustrate the difficulties and the struggles of disordered eating basically, 1569 01:14:17.760 --> 01:14:20.960 and it's presented very like it is kind of like Warrior. 1570 01:14:20.960 --> 01:14:22.880 W're like, and the presentation's awesome. It's very you know, 1571 01:14:23.000 --> 01:14:27.600 kind of jaunty music and stuff like that. But it's 1572 01:14:27.680 --> 01:14:30.560 a kind of runs like Depression Quest or Unpacking where 1573 01:14:30.600 --> 01:14:33.800 it's like I've never had depression, and then playing Depression Quests, 1574 01:14:33.840 --> 01:14:35.760 I kind of saw that like, oh, you have multiple 1575 01:14:35.800 --> 01:14:37.159 choices of what you can do tonight, and you keep 1576 01:14:37.159 --> 01:14:39.239 getting it crossed out because you have depression it's like, oh, okay, 1577 01:14:39.239 --> 01:14:41.880 I didn't understand it was like that or whatever. So 1578 01:14:42.000 --> 01:14:45.039 with this, there's like different meters you have to just 1579 01:14:45.119 --> 01:14:46.760 kind of juggle between all the time. You go day 1580 01:14:46.800 --> 01:14:48.560 by day, you wake up every day and eat lunch 1581 01:14:48.600 --> 01:14:51.399 and all this, and you've got your mood meter, you've 1582 01:14:51.439 --> 01:14:53.520 got your energy meter, and you've got your gut meter, 1583 01:14:53.680 --> 01:14:56.199 like how full you feel. But you're also trying to 1584 01:14:56.239 --> 01:14:59.000 stay under a calorie limit, which is a huge thing 1585 01:14:59.079 --> 01:15:01.279 that people with what you have is like very much 1586 01:15:01.279 --> 01:15:03.920 obsessing over every calorie that goes into your body. So 1587 01:15:03.960 --> 01:15:05.880 you got all these meters you got to juggle, and 1588 01:15:06.000 --> 01:15:08.239 you know one's going down, like it's almost impossible to 1589 01:15:08.319 --> 01:15:10.399 kind of keep them all in like an equilibrium. And 1590 01:15:10.399 --> 01:15:12.199 at the same time, you're trying to earn money by 1591 01:15:12.239 --> 01:15:15.079 doing chores, because chapter one is all about like you're 1592 01:15:15.119 --> 01:15:18.159 trying to save up money to buy a swimsuit because 1593 01:15:18.159 --> 01:15:20.039 there's this party and there's this boy you like, and 1594 01:15:20.119 --> 01:15:22.319 you want to go look hot in a swimsuit for 1595 01:15:22.399 --> 01:15:23.800 this guy for this party. 1596 01:15:23.840 --> 01:15:25.760 So you got like nine days basically to. 1597 01:15:26.159 --> 01:15:28.720 You know, you're trying to stay underneath your calorie limit, 1598 01:15:28.800 --> 01:15:30.720 which it says early on it actually like to avoid 1599 01:15:30.760 --> 01:15:33.199 like triggering people with eating disorders, it just calls them bytes, 1600 01:15:33.279 --> 01:15:35.439 and so you have like five hundred bytes you can 1601 01:15:35.520 --> 01:15:37.880 do each day. So it starts with like you're eating lunch, 1602 01:15:37.920 --> 01:15:41.039 and it's like a Tetris minigag type thing where it's like, okay, 1603 01:15:41.119 --> 01:15:42.960 so I can fit in. There's all these hunger spots 1604 01:15:43.000 --> 01:15:45.239 I need to fill, and if I don't fill them all, 1605 01:15:45.319 --> 01:15:48.199 which is impossible most of the time, you're gonna like 1606 01:15:48.479 --> 01:15:51.119 not be hungry, you're not gonna be full enough. And 1607 01:15:51.159 --> 01:15:52.760 there's stuff where it's like, oh, there's this cookie that 1608 01:15:52.800 --> 01:15:54.880 I can use for this one slot, but that has 1609 01:15:54.920 --> 01:15:56.359 a bunch of bites, so that's going to put me 1610 01:15:56.399 --> 01:15:56.880 over the limit. 1611 01:15:57.079 --> 01:15:58.279 So I'm going to feed that to the dog. 1612 01:15:58.439 --> 01:16:01.359 So there's all these like very interesting play mechanics that 1613 01:16:01.560 --> 01:16:03.960 go into the story they're trying to tell. So like 1614 01:16:04.000 --> 01:16:05.560 another thing you're trying to do is level up, Like 1615 01:16:05.680 --> 01:16:10.279 you've got skill meters for like diet, athletics, academics, and chores, 1616 01:16:10.319 --> 01:16:12.079 and so you're trying to do all of those. So 1617 01:16:12.439 --> 01:16:14.560 you know your mom's on your ass for like it's 1618 01:16:14.560 --> 01:16:17.720 a semi autobiographical thing. So like the character's mom is like, hey, 1619 01:16:17.800 --> 01:16:18.760 you're getting chunky. 1620 01:16:18.760 --> 01:16:20.039 You need to lose weight. And it's like, hey, your 1621 01:16:20.079 --> 01:16:21.680 grades are you know, slipping. You need to work on this. 1622 01:16:21.800 --> 01:16:24.159 So like the minigame for when you're studying is like 1623 01:16:24.199 --> 01:16:26.560 you'll pick a You'll be on the bus and you 1624 01:16:26.640 --> 01:16:28.680 have to read a book to study for a test, 1625 01:16:28.960 --> 01:16:31.199 and like your head is rotating around and you have 1626 01:16:31.279 --> 01:16:33.840 to like jam a when your vision is over the book. 1627 01:16:34.239 --> 01:16:35.760 But it's like rotating around. 1628 01:16:35.960 --> 01:16:37.880 And then it's like also these thoughts are popping up 1629 01:16:37.880 --> 01:16:40.359 and they're visualized by like clouds like thought bubbles and stuff. 1630 01:16:40.359 --> 01:16:41.560 So it's like, oh, it's your mom yelling at you, 1631 01:16:41.680 --> 01:16:43.840 it's the scale, it's all these other things that are 1632 01:16:43.920 --> 01:16:45.760 entering her mind. And that kind of like like your 1633 01:16:46.079 --> 01:16:48.479 the minigame cone bumps against it and makes it so 1634 01:16:48.600 --> 01:16:51.159 you can't finish it. So it's just so smart with 1635 01:16:51.239 --> 01:16:54.840 all these different ways. It very much gamifies the thinking 1636 01:16:55.039 --> 01:16:58.039 of someone that's going through this. So like that that 1637 01:16:58.159 --> 01:17:00.359 is the thing is like, it's kind of I assume 1638 01:17:00.359 --> 01:17:02.680 it's going to become impossible to juggle everything, you know. 1639 01:17:02.760 --> 01:17:04.560 I finished chapter one. I was able to kind of 1640 01:17:04.600 --> 01:17:08.119 like get everything to a reasonable level, but like, for instance, 1641 01:17:09.039 --> 01:17:10.840 I was so worried about like trying to keep my 1642 01:17:11.039 --> 01:17:13.600 bites under the limit. And also you can exercise, so 1643 01:17:13.640 --> 01:17:15.000 you can burn up, so if you go over the limit, 1644 01:17:15.119 --> 01:17:16.960 it's like, oh, if I burn fifteen bites, then I'm 1645 01:17:17.039 --> 01:17:18.840 under the limit and I'm great. But you only have 1646 01:17:18.880 --> 01:17:20.840 a set amount of time every day you can do things, 1647 01:17:21.079 --> 01:17:23.560 so like if you're just focusing on dieting and exercising, 1648 01:17:24.039 --> 01:17:26.279 you don't walk the dog, you can't do your laundry, 1649 01:17:26.359 --> 01:17:28.399 you don't have time to study, you're not cleaning the bathroom, 1650 01:17:28.439 --> 01:17:30.520 so your mom's pissed you about that. So like I 1651 01:17:30.600 --> 01:17:32.079 had a moment where I was so much trying to 1652 01:17:32.159 --> 01:17:34.039 like do all the bite stuff and the diet stuff 1653 01:17:34.479 --> 01:17:37.159 that you do have to actually do your laundry in 1654 01:17:37.199 --> 01:17:39.039 the game, and there's a really kind of fun minigame 1655 01:17:39.079 --> 01:17:41.119 with it. But at one point there was like a 1656 01:17:41.159 --> 01:17:44.720 little vignette where a bus droby and splashed my character 1657 01:17:45.239 --> 01:17:47.720 and so it's like, oh shit, my clothes are dirty. 1658 01:17:47.760 --> 01:17:48.520 Now I need a change. 1659 01:17:48.880 --> 01:17:51.760 But because I hadn't done the laundry minigame that day, 1660 01:17:52.319 --> 01:17:53.560 I didn't have any clean clothes. 1661 01:17:53.720 --> 01:17:55.000 So the mood meter goes down. 1662 01:17:55.560 --> 01:17:58.479 So it's just this like really really tremendous way of 1663 01:17:58.720 --> 01:18:01.640 like like it is on its surface like fun mini games, 1664 01:18:01.720 --> 01:18:04.359 and it's it's just kind of like a time management thing. 1665 01:18:04.960 --> 01:18:08.039 But as far as like getting across you know, the 1666 01:18:08.119 --> 01:18:09.960 message of this game, and like as far as like 1667 01:18:10.119 --> 01:18:12.439 you know, you don't really hear empathy games that much anymore. 1668 01:18:12.520 --> 01:18:14.279 I was kind of a phrase that people throw around 1669 01:18:14.279 --> 01:18:17.079 a lot. I think this is like tremendous as far 1670 01:18:17.159 --> 01:18:17.800 as that goes. 1671 01:18:17.680 --> 01:18:20.560 Awesome, you do, so you think it accomplishes the goal 1672 01:18:20.600 --> 01:18:23.520 of like someone like you who is a somewhat familiar 1673 01:18:23.560 --> 01:18:26.199 with these things but maybe can't necessarily immediately put yourself 1674 01:18:26.199 --> 01:18:28.600 in those shoes? Does it bridge that gap a little bit? 1675 01:18:29.079 --> 01:18:29.279 Yeah? 1676 01:18:29.479 --> 01:18:31.479 And and most importantly, you know, I asked Bianca. 1677 01:18:31.560 --> 01:18:33.479 I was like, I mean, do you feel like effective 1678 01:18:33.520 --> 01:18:35.920 and like and she's like, this is so relatable, Like yes, 1679 01:18:36.159 --> 01:18:40.119 absolutely so Yeah, it seems to like absolutely be nailing 1680 01:18:40.479 --> 01:18:42.760 the message and also the game aspect of what it's 1681 01:18:42.800 --> 01:18:43.079 going for. 1682 01:18:43.399 --> 01:18:45.680 Yeah, I know, and I'll almost expecting next. 1683 01:18:45.760 --> 01:18:48.840 It does seem made by people who have who want 1684 01:18:48.880 --> 01:18:50.880 to convey these things, But I think it's one thing 1685 01:18:50.960 --> 01:18:52.720 to convey to someone who knows what they're going for 1686 01:18:52.800 --> 01:18:55.000 and has experienced it. Yeah, but like you know, it 1687 01:18:55.079 --> 01:18:57.039 does sound like it even can reach out to people 1688 01:18:57.039 --> 01:18:59.079 who have no frame of reference for this and maybe 1689 01:18:59.119 --> 01:19:02.199 begin to help them understand it, which is really impressive. 1690 01:19:01.840 --> 01:19:03.880 Because yeah, again, like like so many mental illnesses, I 1691 01:19:03.920 --> 01:19:06.119 think people that don't understand it or haven't excloruished it, 1692 01:19:06.279 --> 01:19:08.479 like it is very hard to like, like, Bianca doesn't 1693 01:19:08.520 --> 01:19:10.960 have anxiety, so like I can, I can explain what 1694 01:19:11.039 --> 01:19:12.880 a panic attack is. Act She's seen me have panic 1695 01:19:13.119 --> 01:19:16.159 actually knows they're not fun. But unless you have felt that, 1696 01:19:16.560 --> 01:19:19.039 you can't understand. Right, It's like it's like, oh, hey, 1697 01:19:19.159 --> 01:19:20.199 you're not gonna die, what's going on? 1698 01:19:20.319 --> 01:19:20.479 You know? 1699 01:19:20.520 --> 01:19:23.039 It's like this is a great way to kind of 1700 01:19:23.600 --> 01:19:25.039 let someone feel that a little bit, you know. 1701 01:19:25.600 --> 01:19:28.960 For as dire as video game news seems to be 1702 01:19:29.199 --> 01:19:32.520 every single day that we report about it on this website, 1703 01:19:32.600 --> 01:19:37.439 I'm very happy that the indie game scene is able 1704 01:19:37.520 --> 01:19:41.439 to pull off neat things like this Despolote and just 1705 01:19:41.640 --> 01:19:44.119 other weird stories that, like you know, I talked about 1706 01:19:44.159 --> 01:19:46.960 last week, can only really be pulled off in video games. 1707 01:19:47.079 --> 01:19:49.760 Like on its face, Baby Steps is just a frumpy 1708 01:19:49.840 --> 01:19:53.640 white dude in a onesie. Uh, that's too dirty home, 1709 01:19:53.960 --> 01:19:55.960 he needs a shower. But you're have to hear you 1710 01:19:56.079 --> 01:19:58.800 talk about like the deeper messages they you know, you 1711 01:19:58.840 --> 01:20:02.279 can that are intentionally laid in there that you can 1712 01:20:02.319 --> 01:20:05.359 pull out. It seems very It's just like, you. 1713 01:20:05.359 --> 01:20:06.920 Know, I'm not someone who's dealt with a lot of depression, 1714 01:20:07.000 --> 01:20:08.920 but the game, clearly it's like such a good way 1715 01:20:09.000 --> 01:20:11.640 of like understanding someone and like kind of like what 1716 01:20:11.760 --> 01:20:13.800 they have to overcome or things like that. I don't 1717 01:20:13.800 --> 01:20:16.680 know if it's as good as as consume me, which 1718 01:20:17.159 --> 01:20:18.119 consume me. 1719 01:20:18.399 --> 01:20:20.600 I swore you were saying consume me, and I was like, 1720 01:20:20.680 --> 01:20:22.840 Google and consume me. I'm like, that's a lot of dinner. 1721 01:20:26.359 --> 01:20:28.159 Compared it to Baby Steps. I'm just seeing this from 1722 01:20:28.159 --> 01:20:30.119 the chat, so I can't verify myself, but it says 1723 01:20:30.239 --> 01:20:32.159 fun fact. I love to bring up Jenny the lead 1724 01:20:32.239 --> 01:20:33.840 dev is a protege of Ben at Foddy. 1725 01:20:34.319 --> 01:20:38.279 Oh wow, okay, yeah man, that's hell.

When it comes to I'm going 1730 01:21:00.840 --> 01:21:03.840 to download it and make my own edit because if 1731 01:21:03.880 --> 01:21:05.640 you were to show this to anyone, it would be 1732 01:21:05.840 --> 01:21:10.319 you couldn't parse out shit. And also Zanitu's fight should 1733 01:21:10.319 --> 01:21:12.359 be last, and I think we can all agree on that, right. 1734 01:21:12.560 --> 01:21:14.680 Oh yeah, we're right there with you, Bud, Thank you, 1735 01:21:14.800 --> 01:21:17.279 thank you, thank you.

Oh yeah, anyway, speaking about 1743 01:21:43.279 --> 01:21:46.880 consuming things, this is a game that I think has 1744 01:21:47.000 --> 01:21:51.199 quickly consumed a good chunk of the staff. 1745 01:21:51.439 --> 01:21:57.159 Eighties two So credits yesterday, nice, I saw credits this weekend. 1746 01:21:57.199 --> 01:21:57.640 I beat it. 1747 01:21:57.880 --> 01:22:02.560 Yeah, yeah, I you know, I've talked about it more 1748 01:22:02.600 --> 01:22:04.079 at length in the past, but I'll just say that 1749 01:22:04.119 --> 01:22:06.159 now that I'm done with it, And the last few 1750 01:22:06.199 --> 01:22:10.239 weeks have been so Hades two in Megabank Heavy, and 1751 01:22:10.319 --> 01:22:12.520 I still am loving MEGABONK and I'm still I'm definitely 1752 01:22:12.640 --> 01:22:14.479 you know, knocking off checking off all those boxes and 1753 01:22:14.520 --> 01:22:16.640 stuff like that. It is like, I beat Hades and 1754 01:22:16.680 --> 01:22:19.079 I had the thought that, like, you know, MEGABONK is 1755 01:22:19.119 --> 01:22:21.399 a scoop of ice cream and Hades two is like 1756 01:22:21.439 --> 01:22:23.760 a three course meal. You know, Oh, we're both good. 1757 01:22:23.920 --> 01:22:26.000 You like eating both of them, for sure, but like, yeah, 1758 01:22:26.119 --> 01:22:29.640 Haites is just so much more like layered and just 1759 01:22:29.720 --> 01:22:31.319 in so many different ways. You know, obvious We've talked 1760 01:22:31.319 --> 01:22:33.560 about the dialogue and everything, but just like how different 1761 01:22:33.600 --> 01:22:35.800 the runs can be and everything, and like the fact that, 1762 01:22:36.119 --> 01:22:37.920 like the first one, you do need to do a 1763 01:22:38.000 --> 01:22:41.079 bunch of runs to a bunch of successful runs to 1764 01:22:41.279 --> 01:22:43.880 see credits in this game, and it does keep that 1765 01:22:44.079 --> 01:22:46.560 interesting and fun and everything. So it's like, look, knew 1766 01:22:46.600 --> 01:22:50.399 this game was gonna be good. It it's an absolute killer. 1767 01:22:50.479 --> 01:22:52.239 It's if you said it was the best rogue Light 1768 01:22:52.279 --> 01:22:55.640 of all time. I certainly wouldn't blink at that. 1769 01:22:56.159 --> 01:22:59.640 Now, are you also feeling a pool to kind of 1770 01:22:59.680 --> 01:23:03.000 keeping and getting the epilogue done. 1771 01:23:03.039 --> 01:23:04.399 Are you trying to use this as a break to 1772 01:23:04.520 --> 01:23:05.359 check out some other games? 1773 01:23:05.800 --> 01:23:06.079 Same thing. 1774 01:23:06.159 --> 01:23:07.960 I should do that, but I also kind of keep 1775 01:23:08.000 --> 01:23:09.399 going to play Eighties two. 1776 01:23:09.680 --> 01:23:11.520 It's the exact same approach I had to Soilk Song, 1777 01:23:11.600 --> 01:23:13.640 where it's like I got to the end of Act 1778 01:23:13.640 --> 01:23:15.600 two and it's like Act three started, and it's like, 1779 01:23:15.920 --> 01:23:17.760 all right, I do want to play this because this 1780 01:23:17.800 --> 01:23:19.079 is definitely one of my favorite games of the year. 1781 01:23:19.159 --> 01:23:21.640 But it's like, I feel like I've seen credits, I've 1782 01:23:21.720 --> 01:23:24.359 seen an ending of this game for sure, Like I'm 1783 01:23:24.359 --> 01:23:26.359 going to focus on other stuff right now and then 1784 01:23:26.479 --> 01:23:27.680 maybe I'll come back to it at some point. 1785 01:23:28.000 --> 01:23:28.960 Mm hmm. Yeah. 1786 01:23:29.000 --> 01:23:30.880 I feel like I kind of need to do that 1787 01:23:31.239 --> 01:23:33.479 as well. So many things. You know, I need to 1788 01:23:33.479 --> 01:23:36.439 start tactics and like I should be trying Trails on 1789 01:23:36.520 --> 01:23:39.560 the sky. But god, it's just so fun playing Eighties two. 1790 01:23:39.680 --> 01:23:41.159 And you know the first game did this too, but 1791 01:23:41.239 --> 01:23:43.840 it's just so smart how when it starts almost get 1792 01:23:43.960 --> 01:23:46.199 kind of easy.

Did you encounter the person 1850 01:26:44.239 --> 01:26:47.359 I was alluding to last week that had the cum gutters? 1851 01:26:50.159 --> 01:26:50.439 I I. 1852 01:26:52.199 --> 01:26:54.119 Saw somebody with just a massive i'll just say it, 1853 01:26:54.359 --> 01:26:55.880 a massive penis bulge. 1854 01:26:56.680 --> 01:26:58.359 Yes, that's him, dress. 1855 01:26:58.279 --> 01:27:01.159 Like I dress like fucking dress and acting like Matt Riddle. 1856 01:27:01.640 --> 01:27:05.600 Yeah. I didn't notice. I didn't notice the I'm not 1857 01:27:05.680 --> 01:27:08.159 gonna call them the cgs. I didn't notice the cs 1858 01:27:08.199 --> 01:27:08.800 as much as you. 1859 01:27:09.119 --> 01:27:12.079 I was distracted by his thong bulge. 1860 01:27:12.199 --> 01:27:17.119 It was insane. He stuffed it. You think he's stuffed? 1861 01:27:17.720 --> 01:27:21.399 I mean, God is wild. So he put a grapefruit 1862 01:27:21.439 --> 01:27:26.000 in there, a grapefruit maybe of some kind. 1863 01:27:26.640 --> 01:27:28.279 What are you even trying to say? You put a 1864 01:27:28.399 --> 01:27:30.039 grapefruit in there? Jesus Christ? 1865 01:27:31.239 --> 01:27:35.560 That spherical? It is kind of spherical. Okay, all right, 1866 01:27:35.640 --> 01:27:37.960 all right, Well we talked a lot about eighties two 1867 01:27:38.680 --> 01:27:42.279 and and like the replayability and unlocking everything. I want 1868 01:27:42.319 --> 01:27:45.479 to hear from y'all. What is the load out that 1869 01:27:45.600 --> 01:27:48.319 y'all have been rolling with? And or like the builds 1870 01:27:48.359 --> 01:27:48.960 that you're trying to. 1871 01:27:49.199 --> 01:27:52.039 I mean, I generally will do the one that recommend 1872 01:27:52.079 --> 01:27:54.239 that like switching up, unless it's that axe. I have 1873 01:27:54.319 --> 01:27:58.840 not ever made that axe feel bad. So give us 1874 01:27:58.840 --> 01:28:01.199 some tips because've been struggling with the I ax. 1875 01:28:01.439 --> 01:28:03.720 You do the scythe version, the aspect that turns it 1876 01:28:03.720 --> 01:28:07.239 into a scythe because that I think already, oh yeah yeah, 1877 01:28:07.279 --> 01:28:10.439 so up sythe and the attack speed goes up. So 1878 01:28:10.600 --> 01:28:13.279 like the big downside of the axe is the swing speed. 1879 01:28:13.520 --> 01:28:15.560 But it's got like good damage. It's got this huge 1880 01:28:15.680 --> 01:28:18.840 range of attack, and so you focus on getting like 1881 01:28:18.920 --> 01:28:20.680 you know, the hammer upgrades and stuff like that. It'll 1882 01:28:20.720 --> 01:28:23.279 be like boost your attack speed and so and I 1883 01:28:23.399 --> 01:28:25.760 barely use like sometimes i'll use the special for that 1884 01:28:25.840 --> 01:28:28.000 one to like knock off armor, but I put everything 1885 01:28:28.039 --> 01:28:30.079 else into like you know, you'll get crazy shit where 1886 01:28:30.119 --> 01:28:32.159 it's like it'll attack in a three sixty around you 1887 01:28:32.239 --> 01:28:34.560 with the normal speed of a slice. It has a 1888 01:28:34.640 --> 01:28:36.880 chance to swipe twice. It's like you can make that 1889 01:28:36.960 --> 01:28:37.840 thing a fucking killer. 1890 01:28:38.119 --> 01:28:39.319 I did have a good run when I was doing 1891 01:28:39.359 --> 01:28:41.000 the slash twice. I got one where it was like 1892 01:28:41.079 --> 01:28:43.279 slash twice and then also Mike slash twice if you 1893 01:28:43.319 --> 01:28:45.960 do a dash, so it was actually slashing four times occasionally. 1894 01:28:46.079 --> 01:28:47.920 That was insane. That was really cool. 1895 01:28:48.439 --> 01:28:50.760 I think my favorite has been the last one you 1896 01:28:50.840 --> 01:28:52.840 get that just kind of turns you into an armored 1897 01:28:52.880 --> 01:28:55.720 Corps robot with all the missiles you can just kind 1898 01:28:55.720 --> 01:28:58.439 of run around spam your special or aiming at people. 1899 01:28:58.840 --> 01:29:01.279 I've gotten pretty strong with that, and the one where 1900 01:29:01.319 --> 01:29:04.159 you and then the one you throw out the skulls. 1901 01:29:04.159 --> 01:29:05.680 I've had good luck with that, and then also get 1902 01:29:05.720 --> 01:29:09.600 the ones that could just later ones like one, well 1903 01:29:09.680 --> 01:29:11.479 later in the game, it becomes pretty easy to just 1904 01:29:11.640 --> 01:29:14.119 constantly have Mana reag in so that that isn't all 1905 01:29:14.159 --> 01:29:17.159 resource you worrying about, so even just constantly shooting those 1906 01:29:17.279 --> 01:29:19.880 out and spending the Mana on that. And and if 1907 01:29:19.920 --> 01:29:23.000 you have builds that reward you for using Mana, like 1908 01:29:23.119 --> 01:29:25.920 you know, if you get at the saliney stuff, that 1909 01:29:26.000 --> 01:29:27.079 could become pretty powerful. 1910 01:29:27.239 --> 01:29:28.760 And I really didn't like. Those are the two I 1911 01:29:28.880 --> 01:29:30.600 didn't like for most of my time with this game 1912 01:29:30.800 --> 01:29:33.640 was the wands and the skull. The skulls and I 1913 01:29:33.640 --> 01:29:35.319 barely ever even even when they were the glowy one. 1914 01:29:35.319 --> 01:29:37.760 I didn't pick it, and then like yesterday, I was 1915 01:29:37.800 --> 01:29:40.279 picking them a lot, and it's like, man, any weapon 1916 01:29:40.279 --> 01:29:42.399 in this game you can kind of tweak it. Like 1917 01:29:42.399 --> 01:29:44.800 with those hammer upgrades. I love when I'm going up 1918 01:29:44.880 --> 01:29:47.279 because there's almost always a hammer there in that first time. Yeah, 1919 01:29:47.479 --> 01:29:49.079 and so it's like I go there first and it's 1920 01:29:49.119 --> 01:29:50.800 like I will just get something. It's like, okay, great, 1921 01:29:50.880 --> 01:29:53.199 that makes us a very usable thing. Or like you know, 1922 01:29:53.279 --> 01:29:56.039 the skulls. I didn't necessarily like picking up my AMMO 1923 01:29:56.039 --> 01:29:57.640 when it dropped it down, So it's like all right, 1924 01:29:57.720 --> 01:29:59.960 when you get a hammer upgrade, that makes them automatically 1925 01:30:00.119 --> 01:30:01.920 returned to me and one hundred percent faster. And then 1926 01:30:01.960 --> 01:30:04.600 it's just like I have this awesome ranged explodey thing 1927 01:30:04.680 --> 01:30:07.039 that I used to like kill the the main boss 1928 01:30:07.159 --> 01:30:09.399 going up without even like using a death defiance. Like 1929 01:30:09.840 --> 01:30:11.960 so these things that I didn't like at all, it's like, 1930 01:30:12.000 --> 01:30:13.760 oh shit, you just get on the right run with them, 1931 01:30:13.880 --> 01:30:15.439 and like they can be That's. 1932 01:30:15.479 --> 01:30:17.239 That's the thing with the weapons. The right run can 1933 01:30:17.319 --> 01:30:19.479 make anything awesome. Yeah, you kind of get it. 1934 01:30:19.560 --> 01:30:22.000 You just start getting a sense of what boons you're 1935 01:30:22.000 --> 01:30:24.520 looking for, what upgrades are even taking advantage of those 1936 01:30:24.760 --> 01:30:27.479 uh those items that make certain gods appear more often 1937 01:30:27.479 --> 01:30:31.359 because you're looking for something. Yeahcific and the bosses are 1938 01:30:31.479 --> 01:30:34.039 just super good too, you know spoilers. But the third 1939 01:30:34.119 --> 01:30:36.399 boss on the going up route, I love that fight. 1940 01:30:36.520 --> 01:30:38.399 That fight is so much fun. There's parts of it 1941 01:30:38.439 --> 01:30:40.600 that remind me of like a World of Warcraft raid, 1942 01:30:40.680 --> 01:30:41.079 with the way you. 1943 01:30:41.680 --> 01:30:46.159 Certain things fire stuff that Yeah, yeah, okay, I'm the 1944 01:30:46.279 --> 01:30:47.399 middle top bottom. 1945 01:30:47.680 --> 01:30:50.319 I literally hear my raid leader calling it. 1946 01:30:50.399 --> 01:30:52.960 Out in I was assigning numbers to be like a 1947 01:30:53.000 --> 01:30:54.640 two one, two three I would. 1948 01:30:54.479 --> 01:30:56.359 Do if you like that kind of stuff, that's what 1949 01:30:56.520 --> 01:30:59.199 That's a lot of what WOW rating is like, Well, 1950 01:30:59.239 --> 01:31:00.199 I didn't like that, so. 1951 01:31:01.760 --> 01:31:02.840 I recommend it for you. 1952 01:31:04.039 --> 01:31:06.600 Kronos, it like didn't seem like I'm still pretty early on. 1953 01:31:06.840 --> 01:31:08.760 I got to Kronos once and got him like the 1954 01:31:09.079 --> 01:31:11.159 second phase, and like one fit of his south I 1955 01:31:11.239 --> 01:31:12.359 was like, right there, I'm like this s that fight 1956 01:31:12.439 --> 01:31:15.159 wasn't too bad. I'm assuming like he is an appetizer 1957 01:31:15.359 --> 01:31:17.119 for like what is really happening in this game. 1958 01:31:17.279 --> 01:31:20.439 Right, And you know, and there's that yeah, because you 1959 01:31:20.520 --> 01:31:22.399 thinking of him as like the final boss maybe's and 1960 01:31:22.479 --> 01:31:24.720 super correct because you do have the uppath. I will 1961 01:31:24.760 --> 01:31:27.039 say that he seemed he definitely seemed easier than Hades 1962 01:31:27.079 --> 01:31:27.960 did the first. 1963 01:31:27.800 --> 01:31:29.880 Time they got to the comparison I'm making. 1964 01:31:30.000 --> 01:31:31.439 I think you get to that point with Chronos maybe 1965 01:31:31.479 --> 01:31:33.359 because we're all a bit more trained on this now, right, 1966 01:31:33.760 --> 01:31:35.640 But you got there with Hades eventually where that was 1967 01:31:35.760 --> 01:31:37.920 kind of automatic. He just knew what he did. And 1968 01:31:38.039 --> 01:31:41.439 you feel that with Kronos. But you know, you get 1969 01:31:41.479 --> 01:31:43.760 those things too that make each boss fight harder, and 1970 01:31:43.760 --> 01:31:45.800 I'm kind of working my way through those right now too. 1971 01:31:46.239 --> 01:31:48.239 It's always really interesting to see the ways they do that. 1972 01:31:48.399 --> 01:31:51.039 Like you know, for the Sirens, it's very different. They 1973 01:31:51.079 --> 01:31:54.399 sing a different song, there's a different mechanics there, there's 1974 01:31:54.399 --> 01:31:58.079 a different arena you're fighting them in.

We're also all the 2301 01:47:21.039 --> 01:47:24.119 homophobic things we used to just say constantly in the 2302 01:47:24.159 --> 01:47:25.319 school yard, right yeah. 2303 01:47:25.680 --> 01:47:28.640 Yeah, they're better about that now. Yeah. Well I've heard 2304 01:47:28.680 --> 01:47:32.039 some youth still saying certain words and like yeah, and 2305 01:47:32.119 --> 01:47:33.960 then in fact, the art word. We got rid of 2306 01:47:34.039 --> 01:47:37.199 that one, and like everyone's like we miss it, What 2307 01:47:37.359 --> 01:47:42.600 the hell I mean? Yeah, okay, well it feels like 2308 01:47:42.680 --> 01:47:44.880 the youth are in a completely different world, if not 2309 01:47:44.960 --> 01:47:48.199 a completely different galaxy, just like Mike Minatti you have 2310 01:47:48.319 --> 01:47:52.079 been on a different galaxy by playing Super Mario Galaxy too. 2311 01:47:52.960 --> 01:47:55.520 Yeah. I mean it's one of the all ten great 2312 01:47:55.560 --> 01:48:00.600 games and it still is that, And the graphic improvements 2313 01:48:00.600 --> 01:48:02.479 are more than I was expecting. The game looks very 2314 01:48:02.560 --> 01:48:04.079 sharp most of the time, Like every once in a 2315 01:48:04.079 --> 01:48:07.760 while you'll see Captain Toad and he kind of looks 2316 01:48:08.479 --> 01:48:10.760 like a GameCube character suddenly, like his mouth is just 2317 01:48:10.880 --> 01:48:12.720 a texture, you know, kind of a thing, like oh, 2318 01:48:13.359 --> 01:48:15.920 that part looks old, but everything else actually still looks 2319 01:48:16.159 --> 01:48:20.439 super spiffy. The resolution is really sharp, the colors are popping, 2320 01:48:20.680 --> 01:48:23.920 so the porting job whatever they did, looks fantastic. 2321 01:48:24.359 --> 01:48:25.039 Just using the. 2322 01:48:25.119 --> 01:48:29.159 Gyro controls is more than adequate instead of the pointer. 2323 01:48:29.279 --> 01:48:31.520 I haven't had an issue with it at all. It 2324 01:48:31.600 --> 01:48:33.520 was amazing when I was using the pro control and 2325 01:48:33.600 --> 01:48:35.600 it works just about as well when I'm just doing 2326 01:48:35.680 --> 01:48:37.920 the game in hound handhold mode. Even when I'm doing 2327 01:48:37.960 --> 01:48:40.159 the Yoshi stuff. You had to kind of aim somewhat 2328 01:48:40.199 --> 01:48:43.479 precisely with that pointer while you're platforming. I have not 2329 01:48:43.600 --> 01:48:46.840 had a problem with that at all. It is interesting 2330 01:48:46.880 --> 01:48:50.399 playing this game because, like, outside of the levels, I 2331 01:48:50.479 --> 01:48:52.279 think a lot of the stuff just isn't as good 2332 01:48:52.279 --> 01:48:55.640 as it is in Galaxy One. Not that coming to 2333 01:48:55.720 --> 01:48:58.239 a Mario game for story, but it's more like the presentation. 2334 01:48:58.359 --> 01:49:02.560 Like Galaxy One opens with this surprisingly epic and just 2335 01:49:02.720 --> 01:49:04.880 sort of well framed opening cut scene. 2336 01:49:05.239 --> 01:49:05.640 They hear it. 2337 01:49:05.800 --> 01:49:09.760 It's like it's a story book with you know, texts, 2338 01:49:09.840 --> 01:49:13.800 and it just feels cheaper. Spaceship Mario isn't nearly as 2339 01:49:13.840 --> 01:49:16.079 good of a hub world as the Observatory from one. 2340 01:49:17.199 --> 01:49:19.319 The thing is like you know that's a matters. 2341 01:49:19.319 --> 01:49:22.159 It doesn't matter that much, certainly not as much as 2342 01:49:22.520 --> 01:49:26.520 level design and mechanics, and Galaxy two is just so 2343 01:49:26.960 --> 01:49:30.000 freaking amazing at that stuff. The levels are all so 2344 01:49:30.199 --> 01:49:35.760 freaking interesting and fun and constantly introducing new ideas and 2345 01:49:35.960 --> 01:49:39.359 new things. It's just an absolute blast to jump through 2346 01:49:39.760 --> 01:49:42.840 all of them. The physics feel perfect. When you have 2347 01:49:42.960 --> 01:49:45.399 those weird gravity moments of the little planet toys you're 2348 01:49:45.439 --> 01:49:48.039 jumping between them, it's awesome. Some of the best power 2349 01:49:48.119 --> 01:49:51.479 up probably like my favorite suite of power ups in 2350 01:49:51.560 --> 01:49:54.520 any Mario game, between the b Suit and the cloud 2351 01:49:54.640 --> 01:49:58.279 Suit and like the rock rolling Mario and all that stuff, 2352 01:49:58.600 --> 01:50:00.920 and then yosh in this game, one of the best 2353 01:50:00.960 --> 01:50:04.239 implementations of Yoshi that we've had. Super fun. So yeah, 2354 01:50:04.520 --> 01:50:07.359 Galaxy two is still that game, and this seems like 2355 01:50:07.560 --> 01:50:10.600 a fantastic kind of upgraded port of it. 2356 01:50:11.399 --> 01:50:14.239 I've had to stop myself because I have not played 2357 01:50:14.399 --> 01:50:16.399 Galaxy two since I think it came out, and I 2358 01:50:16.399 --> 01:50:18.079 remember at the time thinking like, yeah, this is the 2359 01:50:18.119 --> 01:50:19.520 best three D platform of all time. I think this 2360 01:50:19.600 --> 01:50:21.399 is a little bit better than Galaxy which was my 2361 01:50:21.520 --> 01:50:25.079 previous best ever. So I got like one star in 2362 01:50:25.199 --> 01:50:27.159 this just to kind of like see how it looks 2363 01:50:27.159 --> 01:50:28.680 and everything kind of wet the appetite, and it's like, 2364 01:50:28.680 --> 01:50:31.399 all right, maybe that's a holiday thing. Maybe that's you know, 2365 01:50:31.439 --> 01:50:33.119 once I'm done with some other stuff, you know, like 2366 01:50:33.199 --> 01:50:35.039 that's I'm very very excited to go back to that. 2367 01:50:36.159 --> 01:50:39.159 So I'm happy to hear control. So well, that's great. 2368 01:50:39.800 --> 01:50:44.279 Yeah, fantastic, Chat says interesting question. Hey, is every mainline 2369 01:50:44.319 --> 01:50:47.000 Mario game now on Switch? And I think it might 2370 01:50:47.119 --> 01:50:50.600 be wait Sunschina. Yeah, it's in three D all Stars, 2371 01:50:51.159 --> 01:50:53.920 so so okay, and I know maybe you don't. I'll 2372 01:50:53.960 --> 01:50:54.600 just do it real quick. 2373 01:50:54.600 --> 01:50:54.880 I know it. 2374 01:50:55.000 --> 01:50:59.000 It's one two, three World, World two sixty four Sunshine 2375 01:50:59.079 --> 01:51:01.479 Galaxy Galaxy two honesty. 2376 01:51:01.840 --> 01:51:05.000 Yes, all right on mom. Yes, so three D Land 2377 01:51:05.159 --> 01:51:09.479 and Super Mario Lant aren't on there yet. And yes 2378 01:51:09.520 --> 01:51:11.399 we also have three D World, which is still the 2379 01:51:11.439 --> 01:51:15.439 weirdest one, Dan that you don't consider that one. Did 2380 01:51:15.479 --> 01:51:17.600 you see like the museum put up a wall with 2381 01:51:17.720 --> 01:51:20.039 all the Maine Mario games and there's no Yoshi's Island? 2382 01:51:20.079 --> 01:51:23.359 How interesting did it say? What was the phrasing? Send 2383 01:51:23.399 --> 01:51:23.760 me a link. 2384 01:51:24.079 --> 01:51:26.760 I don't rember for you. The one that posted this Dan, 2385 01:51:27.399 --> 01:51:28.680 I believe it's name line. 2386 01:51:30.199 --> 01:51:33.399 I pointed out that Yoshi's Island was on the Yoshi Wall. 2387 01:51:33.920 --> 01:51:35.640 Yeah, right, is that what you're referring to? 2388 01:51:35.920 --> 01:51:37.600 No, there's a new one. I'll find it for you later. 2389 01:51:38.159 --> 01:51:39.960 But yeah, so, uh, whatever you want to. 2390 01:51:39.960 --> 01:51:42.920 Call him of the May of the three D of 2391 01:51:43.039 --> 01:51:45.960 the Mario platformer games, which somehow is then enough of 2392 01:51:46.039 --> 01:51:47.720 a description to be mainline for Dan. 2393 01:51:48.359 --> 01:51:49.960 Uh, it's just Mario lant. 2394 01:51:50.239 --> 01:51:52.479 Which will be is that somehow stone? 2395 01:51:52.520 --> 01:51:53.079 That can't be right? 2396 01:51:53.199 --> 01:51:54.159 Is that not on nisode? 2397 01:51:54.159 --> 01:51:54.199 No? 2398 01:51:54.359 --> 01:51:55.520 That has to be what am I saying? 2399 01:51:55.600 --> 01:51:58.359 I figured it's god which land it is? 2400 01:51:58.560 --> 01:51:58.760 It is? 2401 01:51:58.920 --> 01:52:02.119 It's just three D land actually, which I don't even 2402 01:52:02.159 --> 01:52:03.720 know if they bother with that one. Honestly, I'm not 2403 01:52:03.760 --> 01:52:04.600 sure if we get that one. 2404 01:52:05.039 --> 01:52:06.880 Oh bro, you're saying a game boy one. So those 2405 01:52:06.920 --> 01:52:09.239 aren't mainline, but yeah, you. 2406 01:52:09.239 --> 01:52:12.920 Can just talk to me. Yeah, three D Land. 2407 01:52:12.960 --> 01:52:15.039 I think they'll redo that at some point. They'll because 2408 01:52:15.479 --> 01:52:17.560 you can't just put that out in HD. It would 2409 01:52:17.600 --> 01:52:18.720 look fucking bad. 2410 01:52:20.039 --> 01:52:22.239 Give it some extra love, you know. 2411 01:52:22.439 --> 01:52:24.199 I'm sure it could get away without being three D, 2412 01:52:24.359 --> 01:52:26.319 but you gotta kind of replace that with something. I 2413 01:52:26.399 --> 01:52:29.600 don't know because was important. Yeah, yeah, but. 2414 01:52:29.640 --> 01:52:31.760 It's like they can figure something out there, but it's 2415 01:52:31.880 --> 01:52:34.399 it looks pretty barren when you played on an emulator now, 2416 01:52:34.520 --> 01:52:36.720 so hopefully they do something there, but they'll do it 2417 01:52:36.760 --> 01:52:37.199 at some point. 2418 01:52:37.199 --> 01:52:39.520 I think, Yeah, I forget and Galaxy too. How many 2419 01:52:39.560 --> 01:52:43.039 different like suits and stuff does Mario get? There's a lot, 2420 01:52:43.119 --> 01:52:45.840 because uh, I sometimes get which ones were brand new 2421 01:52:45.920 --> 01:52:48.319 for two? But he was in the he was in 2422 01:52:48.359 --> 01:52:50.600 the first one. What about Cloud was Cloud in the 2423 01:52:50.640 --> 01:52:51.000 first one? 2424 01:52:51.079 --> 01:52:54.239 Cloud was Cloud is the best? 2425 01:52:54.279 --> 01:52:56.279 Cloud is the best Mario costume we've ever had. The 2426 01:52:56.279 --> 01:52:58.560 way it looks and the mechanics of it are so 2427 01:52:58.720 --> 01:53:01.600 freaking good. I think Boulder might have been new for two. 2428 01:53:01.760 --> 01:53:04.159 I like bolt to Mario. You have fire, you have 2429 01:53:04.359 --> 01:53:07.000 ice as well, you have the spring. Also you have 2430 01:53:07.079 --> 01:53:09.439 that cherry that creates the copy of you. 2431 01:53:09.680 --> 01:53:10.159 That's great. 2432 01:53:10.279 --> 01:53:11.600 Yeah, yeah, it's all sorts of good. 2433 01:53:11.640 --> 01:53:14.560 Stuck. Well, yeah, Mario continues to wear a bunch of 2434 01:53:14.640 --> 01:53:17.039 different hats, But I'm more interested in the hat that 2435 01:53:17.159 --> 01:53:20.720 you're wearing, Mike Manatti, because you have it celebrating golf 2436 01:53:20.800 --> 01:53:23.479 Week like no one else. You're still wearing the golf 2437 01:53:23.560 --> 01:53:25.880 week clothes. You can get Store dot Giant Bob dot com. 2438 01:53:26.039 --> 01:53:28.279 But you have also been playing a couple other golf 2439 01:53:28.319 --> 01:53:29.039 games that you'd like to. 2440 01:53:29.079 --> 01:53:32.039 Talk about, Yeah, Josh Tomorrow, to kick Golf Week off, 2441 01:53:32.079 --> 01:53:34.520 I dug into a bunch of them, starting with Pebble 2442 01:53:34.720 --> 01:53:38.359 Beach Golf Leaks on the Sega Saturn, which was originally 2443 01:53:38.399 --> 01:53:40.680 a three D O game, And yeah, that's really the 2444 01:53:41.159 --> 01:53:45.760 vibe here. Don't think early three D polygons three think, uh, yeah, 2445 01:53:45.800 --> 01:53:51.359 we're using digitized sprites and FMV cuttings on some three 2446 01:53:51.439 --> 01:53:55.199 D levels. But boy, the vibe is actually really neat. 2447 01:53:55.319 --> 01:53:55.359 It. 2448 01:53:55.760 --> 01:53:59.359 It's Craig Stadler is This character just keeps popping up 2449 01:53:59.399 --> 01:54:02.840 and talking to you. He doesn't have a lot of charisma, 2450 01:54:02.960 --> 01:54:06.920 which is why it's amazing. Whenever he's saying lines, it's 2451 01:54:07.399 --> 01:54:11.520 actually hilarious. He has become my favorite golfer ever. Now 2452 01:54:12.039 --> 01:54:15.960 I'm obsessed with the Walrus and yes that is his nickname. 2453 01:54:16.319 --> 01:54:19.119 But there is like this is actually a good game, 2454 01:54:19.159 --> 01:54:21.920 and I love that it is just Pebble Beach, this 2455 01:54:22.119 --> 01:54:25.880 one renowned golf course and before every hole they actually 2456 01:54:26.000 --> 01:54:28.359 like show you a video of it with Craig Styler 2457 01:54:28.479 --> 01:54:31.920 talking about it and literally like offering you actual advice 2458 01:54:32.000 --> 01:54:35.000 on how yeah you should play this hole, which you 2459 01:54:35.079 --> 01:54:37.079 know a place of the game, but would also apply 2460 01:54:37.159 --> 01:54:39.319 if you are actually playing golf there. 2461 01:54:40.640 --> 01:54:41.960 This is the virtual highlight engine. 2462 01:54:42.199 --> 01:54:44.720 This is the fertile highlight engine, so it's made for yeah, 2463 01:54:44.760 --> 01:54:47.600 digitized sprites on three D world. 2464 01:54:48.159 --> 01:54:50.079 The best is uh I was. 2465 01:54:50.279 --> 01:54:52.840 I caught a glimpse of it, and it's like the 2466 01:54:53.119 --> 01:54:55.079 shakiest fucking helicopter. 2467 01:54:55.760 --> 01:54:59.359 Yeah, it comes over yesterday. 2468 01:55:00.680 --> 01:55:01.279 I didn't hear that. 2469 01:55:02.119 --> 01:55:05.399 No, that is so funny to me, Like just these 2470 01:55:05.640 --> 01:55:08.000 lengths of which they had to go to to just 2471 01:55:08.199 --> 01:55:11.159 get an aerial shot of a single golf hole, where 2472 01:55:11.199 --> 01:55:13.239 now it's just some putts with a fucking drone. 2473 01:55:14.520 --> 01:55:16.520 Yeah. The one thing I really struggling with was the 2474 01:55:16.640 --> 01:55:18.920 power meter was just difficult to read. It was in 2475 01:55:19.039 --> 01:55:22.800 like five segments, so it's hard to tell where percent 2476 01:55:23.199 --> 01:55:25.319 was really and I don't know. It just feel like 2477 01:55:25.359 --> 01:55:27.960 I was constantly undershooting or overshooting. You know, if I 2478 01:55:28.000 --> 01:55:30.239 played it more, i'd get a feel for it. Yeah, 2479 01:55:30.560 --> 01:55:33.000 this is a kind of golf game that could only 2480 01:55:33.079 --> 01:55:35.640 have existed in this one two or three year window 2481 01:55:35.720 --> 01:55:38.960 there in the history of video game graphics. So I'm 2482 01:55:38.960 --> 01:55:41.640 glad we got it. It was a fun treat. But 2483 01:55:42.560 --> 01:55:44.920 we actually got a couple of indie developers reached out 2484 01:55:45.039 --> 01:55:47.920 and wanted to help us celebrate Golf Week with some 2485 01:55:48.119 --> 01:55:50.119 of their games, So I checked those out on Mega 2486 01:55:50.199 --> 01:55:52.680 Man last night. You can catch that stream. First one 2487 01:55:52.760 --> 01:55:55.000 was called Golf in It and this one is like 2488 01:55:55.399 --> 01:55:57.800 it's a little bit of that like Game Boy Color 2489 01:55:57.920 --> 01:56:02.359 Mario style. One thing that reminded me of and I 2490 01:56:02.399 --> 01:56:05.199 mean this is positive. It's like the flash golf games 2491 01:56:05.319 --> 01:56:06.640 used to play in high school. 2492 01:56:06.720 --> 01:56:06.840 Right. 2493 01:56:06.920 --> 01:56:08.920 Oh yeah, sure, I'm nostalgic for those. Yeah. 2494 01:56:08.960 --> 01:56:12.119 Because it's easy to play on mouse and keyboards. It's 2495 01:56:12.399 --> 01:56:15.640 very fast paced, you know, classic golf stuff with you know, 2496 01:56:15.840 --> 01:56:19.439 click once for power, click again for accuracy. There's some 2497 01:56:19.800 --> 01:56:22.760 a few other extra things happening, Like there's turtles on 2498 01:56:22.840 --> 01:56:25.279 the golf course and if you land near their radius, 2499 01:56:25.560 --> 01:56:28.319 they'll just sort of hit your ball, so like that 2500 01:56:28.359 --> 01:56:30.399 could really miss you. Up there are portals, and if 2501 01:56:30.439 --> 01:56:32.119 you go in a portal, maybe it'll get you closer, 2502 01:56:32.159 --> 01:56:33.560 but maybe it'll get you further away. 2503 01:56:34.079 --> 01:56:36.039 You can also buy upgrades. 2504 01:56:35.600 --> 01:56:38.159 With sort of the experience points you're through playing things 2505 01:56:38.279 --> 01:56:40.479 like oh you can use this ball one time that 2506 01:56:40.640 --> 01:56:43.159 just won't bounce at all, or another ball that will 2507 01:56:43.199 --> 01:56:45.279 always bounce in the direction of the pen. 2508 01:56:45.800 --> 01:56:48.880 So stuff like that. Yeah, so ito's golf in it. 2509 01:56:49.239 --> 01:56:53.520 Go O L F I N I E. Then also 2510 01:56:53.640 --> 01:56:56.039 checked out Super Video Golf. 2511 01:56:56.199 --> 01:57:00.520 Now this is like what a sega on a golf 2512 01:57:00.600 --> 01:57:03.920 game would have looked like if it was like Virtua Golf, right, 2513 01:57:04.079 --> 01:57:06.760 early three D polygons kind of a thing like the 2514 01:57:06.800 --> 01:57:10.319 golf game we didn't get then, So I always love 2515 01:57:10.399 --> 01:57:11.479 that low poly look. 2516 01:57:11.920 --> 01:57:13.159 So this has that in spades. 2517 01:57:13.359 --> 01:57:17.079 And then again just very classic golf mechanics on top 2518 01:57:17.159 --> 01:57:19.239 of all of that has everything. He kind of went with, 2519 01:57:19.319 --> 01:57:22.960 you know this, you know again, classic swing controls, stuff 2520 01:57:23.000 --> 01:57:25.680 like that. It just had a very good vibe, very 2521 01:57:25.680 --> 01:57:27.279 good music. It had a little bit of that Craik 2522 01:57:27.359 --> 01:57:28.279 Statler energy. 2523 01:57:28.479 --> 01:57:29.880 Honestly looks cool. Yeah. 2524 01:57:30.000 --> 01:57:32.479 Yeah, you have the bad voice lines right with the 2525 01:57:32.640 --> 01:57:36.079 low quality audio. So yeah, so it's the low fi 2526 01:57:36.560 --> 01:57:40.560 video golf, very cool vibe, super good Again it's called 2527 01:57:40.640 --> 01:57:45.880 Super Video Golf. So another very good uh indie golf game. 2528 01:57:46.279 --> 01:57:50.239 To check out what I have online stuff like online 2529 01:57:50.279 --> 01:57:53.399 tournaments or play with Okay, oh, that's cool locally things 2530 01:57:53.479 --> 01:57:53.640 like that. 2531 01:57:54.680 --> 01:57:57.079 I did try that Beavis and butt Heead mini golf 2532 01:57:57.119 --> 01:57:58.720 game from nineteen ninety eight to see if it would 2533 01:57:58.720 --> 01:57:59.680 be worthy of Golf Week. 2534 01:58:00.039 --> 01:58:03.479 That game sucks, but holes a hohoy or what's it called. 2535 01:58:03.560 --> 01:58:07.760 It's like a bung hole in one. The best thing 2536 01:58:07.760 --> 01:58:10.760 about that game, by far is the name good. It's 2537 01:58:10.920 --> 01:58:13.239 just like what if mini golf was happening in the 2538 01:58:13.279 --> 01:58:16.199 Beats and butt Heead world, but you don't like see 2539 01:58:16.239 --> 01:58:17.560 them on the course. You like, it's one of those 2540 01:58:17.560 --> 01:58:19.840 ones where you click on the ball, pull away from 2541 01:58:19.920 --> 01:58:21.800 it and then it kind of flings forward like I 2542 01:58:22.279 --> 01:58:24.880 like that mechanic. But it's just such a bare bones, 2543 01:58:24.920 --> 01:58:27.000 basic nothing game that really isn't worth the time. 2544 01:58:27.800 --> 01:58:28.920 That's the new golf game I played. 2545 01:58:28.960 --> 01:58:30.800 I played some Neo turf Masters and stuff like that 2546 01:58:30.880 --> 01:58:33.199 before everyone knows that rules, Yeah, I was. 2547 01:58:33.319 --> 01:58:35.680 I checked out some of that stream. Neo turf Masters 2548 01:58:36.239 --> 01:58:36.760 does rule. 2549 01:58:36.840 --> 01:58:38.479 I mean it's funny because it has some of that 2550 01:58:38.600 --> 01:58:42.039 similar energy to Pebble Beach, which is, you know, instead 2551 01:58:42.079 --> 01:58:46.079 of like digitized, it's mo capped, really high quality spice 2552 01:58:46.279 --> 01:58:49.359 sprite work. I think, Yeah, it just still looks so 2553 01:58:49.520 --> 01:58:53.239 freaking good. The music is amazing. That's probably my favorite 2554 01:58:53.279 --> 01:58:54.319 golf game ever. I love it. 2555 01:58:54.600 --> 01:58:55.840 It's it really holds up. 2556 01:58:55.880 --> 01:58:56.800 It's fantastic. 2557 01:58:57.199 --> 01:59:01.520 We are continuing the Golf Weeks celebrations and for those 2558 01:59:01.560 --> 01:59:03.920 folks out there that may have heard the Game Informer 2559 01:59:03.960 --> 01:59:06.840 at the play during the break, we're gonna go play 2560 01:59:07.159 --> 01:59:11.000 against Game Informer tomorrow.

Holy smokes gang, 2582 02:00:14.600 --> 02:00:20.039 imagine if was good so badly? This game was really fun. 2583 02:00:20.119 --> 02:00:23.600 Actually we played it and loved it. And then I 2584 02:00:23.680 --> 02:00:25.199 said at the end, I said, because like I think 2585 02:00:25.239 --> 02:00:27.520 it was. Yes, yeah, that Friday, because like my my sister, 2586 02:00:27.640 --> 02:00:30.600 her husband and their daughter my niece were on the 2587 02:00:30.680 --> 02:00:32.520 way up here driving up from Kansas when we were 2588 02:00:32.560 --> 02:00:34.319 playing Lego Party, and I told you that, like, Okay, 2589 02:00:34.399 --> 02:00:36.640 the real test is going to be is Mario Party 2590 02:00:36.680 --> 02:00:38.159 has always been a game that can appeal to people 2591 02:00:38.159 --> 02:00:40.039 if they don't really play a lot of games or whatever. 2592 02:00:40.039 --> 02:00:41.880 You know, the types that like you play Mario Party 2593 02:00:42.039 --> 02:00:44.119 twice a year at holidays or whatever, and like that's 2594 02:00:44.159 --> 02:00:47.039 your thing is Mario Party. And for my sister Katie, 2595 02:00:47.319 --> 02:00:49.119 that is her game, Like she would like you to 2596 02:00:49.199 --> 02:00:51.279 play Mario Party with me and Kayla growing up and stuff, 2597 02:00:51.319 --> 02:00:53.479 But she they've got a switched. They don't play a 2598 02:00:53.520 --> 02:00:55.199 whole lot or hasn't play some Call of duty every 2599 02:00:55.239 --> 02:00:58.239 once in a while, not really gamers biny stretch and 2600 02:00:58.359 --> 02:01:00.279 I brought it up to them that night. I was like, Hey, 2601 02:01:01.000 --> 02:01:02.760 would you guys be up for changing it up a 2602 02:01:02.800 --> 02:01:05.439 little bit to night and uh and playing this new 2603 02:01:05.520 --> 02:01:08.520 Lego Party game. And Katie told me later that when 2604 02:01:08.560 --> 02:01:10.319 I said that, she was skeptical because she was like, 2605 02:01:10.359 --> 02:01:12.079 I don't really care about Legos. I don't really do 2606 02:01:12.159 --> 02:01:14.359 Lego stuff like Mario Parties are thing like, let's just 2607 02:01:14.399 --> 02:01:18.880 play that. They finished the first game, absolutely loved it, 2608 02:01:18.960 --> 02:01:21.079 and we're like, nice, that is better than Mario Party? 2609 02:01:21.159 --> 02:01:22.359 Can we do another game right now? 2610 02:01:22.520 --> 02:01:22.560 So? 2611 02:01:23.359 --> 02:01:26.479 Wow, it is, and I will say it it is. 2612 02:01:26.640 --> 02:01:28.319 It is better than Mario Party. 2613 02:01:28.760 --> 02:01:31.399 It's frustrating how much better it is. Like they make 2614 02:01:31.600 --> 02:01:34.079 fifty Mario Parties, they couldn't have thought of a single 2615 02:01:34.159 --> 02:01:37.359 one of the one hundred improvements of the formula that 2616 02:01:37.520 --> 02:01:39.119 Lego Party has introduced here. 2617 02:01:39.239 --> 02:01:41.279 It's just so much snapier. 2618 02:01:41.680 --> 02:01:45.920 I feel like on the outside where I'm at, like, yeah, 2619 02:01:46.680 --> 02:01:49.479 we've been saying this for a long time, So Lego 2620 02:01:49.600 --> 02:01:52.680 Party no, just about how like piss poor of an 2621 02:01:52.760 --> 02:01:55.840 experience Mario Party is. And yeah, I'm not going to 2622 02:01:55.880 --> 02:01:58.079 go that all of these all of these quality of 2623 02:01:58.239 --> 02:02:01.720 life things that are like so sick people and obvious. 2624 02:02:02.479 --> 02:02:05.159 Let me run down a few here of like clear 2625 02:02:05.640 --> 02:02:08.640 improvements and tweaks to Mario Party that I noticed, and 2626 02:02:08.680 --> 02:02:10.359 I've only played three games of it now, and like 2627 02:02:10.520 --> 02:02:12.119 there's maps I haven't played, like I want to play 2628 02:02:12.119 --> 02:02:16.399 a lot more. All right, So mini game placement determines 2629 02:02:16.479 --> 02:02:20.319 turn order, so yes, which is so smart because let's 2630 02:02:20.319 --> 02:02:21.800 say it's the thing where me and Greb are both 2631 02:02:21.840 --> 02:02:24.039 two or three spaces away from the golden brick, which 2632 02:02:24.119 --> 02:02:26.880 is the star that adds so many stakes to the 2633 02:02:26.960 --> 02:02:30.960 mini game itself. Is that like goal first, Like holy shit, 2634 02:02:31.039 --> 02:02:34.199 that alone changes a lot. That's incredible. They've got these, 2635 02:02:34.479 --> 02:02:36.079 you know, like the two v two stuff. You know 2636 02:02:36.159 --> 02:02:37.960 it would happen in Mario Party if you know two 2637 02:02:38.000 --> 02:02:40.159 were on blue and two were on red. Here it's 2638 02:02:40.239 --> 02:02:43.800 specific brick battle squares that you land on and it 2639 02:02:43.880 --> 02:02:46.359 puts you in a two v two match and the winner, 2640 02:02:46.439 --> 02:02:49.680 the winning team gets a golden brick each, so immediate 2641 02:02:49.840 --> 02:02:51.720 stakes on that. So you get to a brick battle 2642 02:02:51.840 --> 02:02:53.640 it randomly puts you. It's all right, jan, me and you, 2643 02:02:53.760 --> 02:02:55.319 we got to get this and there's a star on 2644 02:02:55.399 --> 02:02:57.680 the line. It's not just ten bullshit coins or whatever. 2645 02:02:57.760 --> 02:03:00.159 It's it's like a real thing at the end of 2646 02:03:00.199 --> 02:03:02.159 mini games. This is a very minor one, but I 2647 02:03:02.239 --> 02:03:05.039 appreciate it. Like it'll show the score, let's say, you know, 2648 02:03:05.119 --> 02:03:06.760 it's just something where you got to shoot X number 2649 02:03:06.760 --> 02:03:09.079 of whatever. The score shows up, but then like in 2650 02:03:09.159 --> 02:03:12.119 the waning seconds, like last five or ten seconds, it 2651 02:03:12.199 --> 02:03:14.920 fades away. So there's that element of like ooh, one 2652 02:03:15.479 --> 02:03:17.600 until it does the like you know, oh yeah, yeah, yeah. 2653 02:03:17.520 --> 02:03:18.760 Final thing. That's that's awesome. 2654 02:03:19.439 --> 02:03:22.920 So the boards themselves shift, Like the way they use 2655 02:03:23.079 --> 02:03:25.159 legos in this game is so fucking good because like 2656 02:03:25.199 --> 02:03:27.800 you'll do the theme park course and there's like the 2657 02:03:27.840 --> 02:03:30.399 starting area and then like the central fountain thing they 2658 02:03:30.479 --> 02:03:32.560 go around, but then when you go to the corners 2659 02:03:32.880 --> 02:03:35.039 you get to build one, so you can build like 2660 02:03:35.079 --> 02:03:36.359 the new land. So it's like do I want to 2661 02:03:36.399 --> 02:03:39.399 do horror Land, like a haunted house themed section of 2662 02:03:39.479 --> 02:03:42.399 this board, or do I want to build extreme Land? 2663 02:03:42.960 --> 02:03:45.399 And that's a whole different thing. So each time you play, 2664 02:03:45.600 --> 02:03:47.720 even like the theme park world, that's going. 2665 02:03:47.680 --> 02:03:48.119 To be different. 2666 02:03:48.880 --> 02:03:52.359 It does like these risky free bricks you can get 2667 02:03:52.560 --> 02:03:54.199 there where it's like, okay, I can go to the 2668 02:03:54.279 --> 02:03:56.600 water park land and if I can climb up this 2669 02:03:56.680 --> 02:03:59.680 whole thing and avoid all six of these you know 2670 02:03:59.800 --> 02:04:02.239 why slide things that will send me down shoots and 2671 02:04:02.319 --> 02:04:04.680 ladder style to the beginning, I will get a free 2672 02:04:04.800 --> 02:04:06.600 golden brick that I don't have to pay for. I 2673 02:04:06.680 --> 02:04:08.399 went to the extreme Land and it was a totally 2674 02:04:08.439 --> 02:04:10.680 different thing with the free brick, where it's like it 2675 02:04:10.840 --> 02:04:12.479 is a series as you progress through it of like 2676 02:04:12.600 --> 02:04:15.079 you have to do like okay, like a bike stunt 2677 02:04:15.199 --> 02:04:16.760 or whatever.

All right, let's do this. 2866 02:11:51.079 --> 02:11:51.720 Let's start here. 2867 02:11:52.079 --> 02:11:54.560 Did you guys see this this thing that Nintendo dropped 2868 02:11:54.560 --> 02:11:58.720 a weird video a short film. Nintendo post mysterious close 2869 02:11:58.800 --> 02:12:01.920 to You animated short film this morning. A Nintendo clip 2870 02:12:02.000 --> 02:12:05.239 titled close to You shows a baby chasing a floating 2871 02:12:05.439 --> 02:12:09.079 pacifier around a bedroom. It'sok like a three DCGI animated thing. 2872 02:12:09.439 --> 02:12:13.039 Nintendo has offered no further details, simply posting the video 2873 02:12:13.199 --> 02:12:15.720 with the title. The video depicts a mother leaving her 2874 02:12:15.760 --> 02:12:18.199 baby with a passifire, after which the baby's toys begin 2875 02:12:18.319 --> 02:12:20.920 moving on their own. The passifier then floats out of 2876 02:12:20.960 --> 02:12:23.119 the baby's mouth, leading to the baby chasing it around 2877 02:12:23.159 --> 02:12:26.239 the room. The mother re enters, seemingly surprised by the 2878 02:12:26.319 --> 02:12:28.479 baby's first steps because the baby got up to get 2879 02:12:28.520 --> 02:12:31.760 the pacifier and hugs the baby, and Nintendo logo appears 2880 02:12:31.840 --> 02:12:36.119 and the video ends without explanation. Online speculations suggest the 2881 02:12:36.239 --> 02:12:38.720 music is very similar to Pickman. 2882 02:12:40.319 --> 02:12:41.840 You know what. The first couple of notes. 2883 02:12:41.680 --> 02:12:44.359 Of that song sound exactly like the Pickman music, but 2884 02:12:44.439 --> 02:12:46.199 then it goes in a different direction, so it's like, 2885 02:12:46.640 --> 02:12:48.359 are those my ears or my ears playing a trick 2886 02:12:48.399 --> 02:12:50.960 on me? There is another moment in the trailer where 2887 02:12:51.319 --> 02:12:55.279 the camera's focused on the baby and the baby's chasing 2888 02:12:55.319 --> 02:12:57.520 some of its toys that's moving around, maybe the pacifier, 2889 02:12:57.800 --> 02:13:01.439 and underneath its crib a small blow read object is 2890 02:13:01.520 --> 02:13:05.680 moving that maybe could be a Pickman Even if it is, 2891 02:13:06.159 --> 02:13:09.079 what do you guys think this trailer is trying to accomplish? 2892 02:13:09.560 --> 02:13:12.199 So weird because the trailer videos short? Yeah, I mean 2893 02:13:12.239 --> 02:13:12.439 that's what. 2894 02:13:12.560 --> 02:13:15.359 It looks like, a CG short, like something from an 2895 02:13:15.399 --> 02:13:17.239 illumination or maybe it seems like. 2896 02:13:17.239 --> 02:13:19.640 Something that we'd play before the Mario movie later next year. 2897 02:13:19.720 --> 02:13:21.439 Yeah, like that is the court. Like this doesn't look 2898 02:13:21.520 --> 02:13:25.680 like anything Nintendo has done before. But if I would 2899 02:13:25.760 --> 02:13:27.880 initially think this is just related to you know, they 2900 02:13:27.920 --> 02:13:30.840 have that Mario line of basically baby toys and baby 2901 02:13:30.880 --> 02:13:33.960 stuff coming out. Yeah, but like, yeah, like the quality 2902 02:13:34.000 --> 02:13:38.520 of this is seems surprisingly high and nothing in here, 2903 02:13:39.680 --> 02:13:40.600 says Mario. 2904 02:13:40.800 --> 02:13:44.279 It's just this pacifier kind of moving around on its own. 2905 02:13:44.439 --> 02:13:46.600 Like maybe there isn't it like a new pigment type 2906 02:13:46.680 --> 02:13:50.439 that's an invisible pickment, and that's moving the pacifier around. 2907 02:13:50.880 --> 02:13:54.159 This doesn't look like Piman to me. I'm just watching now. 2908 02:13:54.199 --> 02:13:54.840 The arts high. 2909 02:13:55.079 --> 02:13:57.680 That's a great many about it. Now we go go 2910 02:13:57.800 --> 02:13:59.560 to one minute in thirty nine seconds to see that 2911 02:13:59.600 --> 02:13:59.920 thing move. 2912 02:14:00.039 --> 02:14:01.880 Okay, there's something there. 2913 02:14:03.319 --> 02:14:07.000 That is a tiny little that's mmm, that's I. 2914 02:14:07.079 --> 02:14:10.199 Mean, it could be like the teaser for the Pickman 2915 02:14:10.239 --> 02:14:11.640 movie from Illumination, right, and. 2916 02:14:12.439 --> 02:14:15.960 Yeah, that would be cool. I think that would be 2917 02:14:16.079 --> 02:14:17.079 my best guess. 2918 02:14:17.119 --> 02:14:19.800 Right, I mean, even if it's like Pickman shorts before 2919 02:14:19.920 --> 02:14:22.439 the Mario movie that eventually leads to a Piman movie. 2920 02:14:22.279 --> 02:14:25.880 Down the road. There are people, there's some other speculation. 2921 02:14:25.960 --> 02:14:28.560 People think that that baby could be Rosolina because of 2922 02:14:28.640 --> 02:14:30.600 her eye color and what else that was written here, 2923 02:14:31.119 --> 02:14:34.159 because of its mama storyline in the game. I think 2924 02:14:34.239 --> 02:14:36.479 that's a stretch, but I don't know, I really don't know. 2925 02:14:37.760 --> 02:14:40.800 I mean, the baby's wearing blue, right, like that's spacey 2926 02:14:40.840 --> 02:14:43.920 blue like Rosalina, And yeah, the blonde hair you know what. 2927 02:14:44.560 --> 02:14:47.199 I like this theory actually immediately now, maybe maybe there's 2928 02:14:47.199 --> 02:14:48.920 a Loomo over there or something like that. Okay, I 2929 02:14:49.000 --> 02:14:51.199 think this is a rose oh gosh, yeah, and the 2930 02:14:51.960 --> 02:14:54.359 mobile has stars on it. I actually immediately think that 2931 02:14:54.439 --> 02:14:56.960 this is just related to the Mario Galaxy movie and 2932 02:14:57.000 --> 02:14:58.560 that this is a Rosalina origin. 2933 02:14:58.720 --> 02:15:01.840 Actually, okay, okay, Chat says again just a chat thing 2934 02:15:01.920 --> 02:15:04.640 not verified here, says Meamoto has said that pickmen are 2935 02:15:04.680 --> 02:15:07.720 always quote close to you in the world, and the 2936 02:15:07.800 --> 02:15:10.880 Pickman bloom app says that humans can't see Pickman. 2937 02:15:11.680 --> 02:15:13.000 Yeah, I was thinking I was wondering if there was 2938 02:15:13.039 --> 02:15:18.079 something like that. Okay, So a lot of possibilities here, 2939 02:15:18.159 --> 02:15:20.239 but regard this is weird. 2940 02:15:20.640 --> 02:15:21.439 Weird they don't. 2941 02:15:23.279 --> 02:15:26.920 This feels like you're like like Kajima tees of just like, yeah, 2942 02:15:27.279 --> 02:15:29.199 movie Dick studios, you know what's this fucking thing? 2943 02:15:29.279 --> 02:15:33.520 You know? Like, yeah, it's very bizarre. All right, I'm intrigued. Yeah, 2944 02:15:34.359 --> 02:15:36.319 Nintendo's name pops up. I don't. 2945 02:15:36.640 --> 02:15:39.199 I feel like if Illumination was very involved, they would 2946 02:15:39.239 --> 02:15:40.239 have their credit on there. 2947 02:15:40.239 --> 02:15:43.079 I don't see. Yeah. 2948 02:15:43.960 --> 02:15:49.399 Ninato did acquire a three D video production team last 2949 02:15:49.760 --> 02:15:51.560 and they called it Nintendo Video in like the last 2950 02:15:51.640 --> 02:15:52.279 couple of years. 2951 02:15:52.399 --> 02:15:55.760 So I don't know either way, I'm fascinated by this. 2952 02:15:56.159 --> 02:15:58.600 Uh I listen, it's something new with Pickman. Even if 2953 02:15:58.640 --> 02:16:01.560 it's a Pickman movie, Oh anything, I will be very excited. 2954 02:16:01.600 --> 02:16:04.399 I love I love Pickman. I'll take it. I would 2955 02:16:04.680 --> 02:16:07.800 love a new Pickman game. Though. They should just make 2956 02:16:07.920 --> 02:16:09.680 the Pickmen into minions. 2957 02:16:10.159 --> 02:16:12.319 Yeah, I mean, I'm honestly, they're gonna work with elimination, 2958 02:16:12.520 --> 02:16:16.000 just like, have the Minion team do a Pickman movie. 2959 02:16:16.119 --> 02:16:18.199 I bet that would be all ruin pimen. 2960 02:16:19.399 --> 02:16:23.520 Pickman were doing that shtick long before the minions existed, 2961 02:16:23.680 --> 02:16:24.960 so they didn't. 2962 02:16:24.760 --> 02:16:28.399 Have a stick. They were real, they were pure. 2963 02:16:28.760 --> 02:16:32.040 They're very honest, all right. 2964 02:16:32.680 --> 02:16:36.680 Months after delay, Bungee's Marathon is returning to testing. Buzzy 2965 02:16:36.879 --> 02:16:39.680 a Bungee Shooter Marathon is set to return to close 2966 02:16:39.840 --> 02:16:43.559 beta testing between October twenty second and October twenty seventh, 2967 02:16:43.719 --> 02:16:47.120 nearly four months after it's an initial delay. This NDA 2968 02:16:47.200 --> 02:16:50.000 protected play test aims to evaluate improvements made since the 2969 02:16:50.079 --> 02:16:52.479 alpha does feel like and they say it, it's like 2970 02:16:52.520 --> 02:16:55.239 a big important checkpoint. It feels like this is gonna 2971 02:16:55.239 --> 02:16:57.319 be the moment it's like, Okay, can we actually release 2972 02:16:57.399 --> 02:16:59.719 this game by March and it'd all be decided by 2973 02:16:59.760 --> 02:17:02.559 help people respond to it. Now, let me ask you, guys, 2974 02:17:02.639 --> 02:17:06.600 any interest into seeing how Marathon looks at this point 2975 02:17:06.680 --> 02:17:08.319 or is this one of those ones where like I'll. 2976 02:17:08.159 --> 02:17:10.280 Just wait till it's out. I mean, it's an academic interest, 2977 02:17:10.360 --> 02:17:13.440 because you know, we've heard pretty quickly that people didn't 2978 02:17:13.600 --> 02:17:16.959 like Marathon when it was last testing, and that seemed 2979 02:17:16.959 --> 02:17:18.600 to kind of, you know, put the game in this 2980 02:17:18.719 --> 02:17:21.319 weird place. I'm just curious if I don't think I'm 2981 02:17:21.319 --> 02:17:22.799 going to like the game almost no wonder what I 2982 02:17:23.200 --> 02:17:23.479 tried it. 2983 02:17:23.559 --> 02:17:25.520 I think I just don't like extraction shooters. 2984 02:17:25.559 --> 02:17:27.719 Actually, who knows, But there are a lot of people 2985 02:17:27.760 --> 02:17:30.760 who do, and I'm curious if this wins over more 2986 02:17:30.840 --> 02:17:33.239 of them, if this does find some positivity, or if 2987 02:17:33.280 --> 02:17:35.079 this Marathon is just going to continue to sort of 2988 02:17:35.559 --> 02:17:38.799 drown in this negative space that's been occupying for so long. 2989 02:17:38.920 --> 02:17:39.040 Now. 2990 02:17:39.879 --> 02:17:42.159 Yep, yeah, we've talked a bunch about Marathon, so there's 2991 02:17:42.159 --> 02:17:44.600 not much else to say here. But you know, that 2992 02:17:44.719 --> 02:17:46.440 is a game that apparently they still want to get 2993 02:17:46.440 --> 02:17:48.200 out by March, by the end of the fiscal year 2994 02:17:49.159 --> 02:17:50.719 if it doesn't make that window. 2995 02:17:50.719 --> 02:17:52.879 If this goes poorly again, do you. 2996 02:17:52.920 --> 02:17:55.040 Think it could be as bad as pulling the plug 2997 02:17:55.120 --> 02:17:55.319 on it? 2998 02:17:55.639 --> 02:17:58.079 Like they can't, right, they can't. I feel like they can't. 2999 02:17:58.120 --> 02:18:00.120 I think you're right, I feel like they can't. I 3000 02:18:00.200 --> 02:18:00.680 don't know, though. 3001 02:18:01.399 --> 02:18:01.440 No. 3002 02:18:03.040 --> 02:18:06.840 Metal Health Singer studio closed as part of fun coom cuts. 3003 02:18:07.120 --> 02:18:10.399 Funcom is closed the Outsiders, the developer of Metal Health Singer, 3004 02:18:10.479 --> 02:18:13.760 as part of company wide the layoffs. Founder David Goldfarb 3005 02:18:14.440 --> 02:18:16.879 shouts out to David Goldfarby's school. Dude announced the closure, 3006 02:18:17.000 --> 02:18:19.479 noting that the studio, acquired by Funcom three years prior, 3007 02:18:19.840 --> 02:18:22.840 had survived a previous near death experience that led to 3008 02:18:22.920 --> 02:18:26.040 the creation of Metal Health Singer. I see there's there's 3009 02:18:26.040 --> 02:18:27.079 a lot of camaraderie there. 3010 02:18:27.040 --> 02:18:27.559 At the studio. 3011 02:18:27.840 --> 02:18:31.000 They're going to try to like do something to maybe 3012 02:18:31.200 --> 02:18:33.479 save the essence of the studio. I didn't fully follow 3013 02:18:33.559 --> 02:18:35.840 what he meant, but it sounds like they are going 3014 02:18:35.879 --> 02:18:38.200 to try to continue in some way. Whether that's like 3015 02:18:38.479 --> 02:18:39.959 building a new team off to the side with a 3016 02:18:40.000 --> 02:18:41.079 lot of the same people or not. 3017 02:18:41.479 --> 02:18:41.959 We'll see. 3018 02:18:42.280 --> 02:18:45.479 I never played Metal Health Singer. It seemed like a 3019 02:18:45.840 --> 02:18:47.959 like it seems like the idea. Yeah, it seemed like 3020 02:18:47.959 --> 02:18:51.760 a good try an idea, do something different from everyone 3021 02:18:51.840 --> 02:18:54.280 else and stand out like and they did that, and 3022 02:18:54.360 --> 02:18:55.959 it seems like a lot of people did actually pick 3023 02:18:56.040 --> 02:18:57.879 up on it and enjoy it. Again, was well reviewed, 3024 02:18:58.079 --> 02:19:01.639 So yeah, it's a shame, I bet though. It's like, Okay, 3025 02:19:02.440 --> 02:19:04.120 reached a certain level of success, and we want to 3026 02:19:04.120 --> 02:19:05.479 see this level of success. 3027 02:19:05.200 --> 02:19:05.959 To just get out of here. 3028 02:19:06.479 --> 02:19:10.040 That's the story of gaming right now. Red Dead Redemption 3029 02:19:10.159 --> 02:19:12.479 two is PS five, Xbox Series and Switch two versions 3030 02:19:12.520 --> 02:19:16.159 are still happening. That's according to Nate the Hate. That 3031 02:19:16.520 --> 02:19:18.959 sounds about right to me because Red Dead Redemption two 3032 02:19:19.159 --> 02:19:22.920 on PS four and PS and Xbox one that version 3033 02:19:23.520 --> 02:19:26.079 is the version that you can still get on modern consoles, 3034 02:19:26.440 --> 02:19:29.120 and it then it's still locked to thirty frames per second. 3035 02:19:29.479 --> 02:19:32.639 So it's like, yeah, they will probably unleash that game 3036 02:19:32.719 --> 02:19:34.360 in some new way here pretty soon. 3037 02:19:34.479 --> 02:19:35.719 Probably just with an update. 3038 02:19:37.200 --> 02:19:39.799 But yeah, then they release it on Switch To, which 3039 02:19:39.840 --> 02:19:42.159 is a twenty eighteen game that will make sense. I 3040 02:19:42.840 --> 02:19:44.239 don't know if I'm gonna replay it here. If I 3041 02:19:44.280 --> 02:19:46.559 replay that game, I'll try it on PC with some ods. 3042 02:19:47.200 --> 02:19:51.120 But yeah, they're gonna have Grand Theft Auto six next year, 3043 02:19:51.200 --> 02:19:53.360 So do you think this comes out like much sooner 3044 02:19:53.440 --> 02:19:55.559 than that. It's like not distract from it. 3045 02:19:55.639 --> 02:19:58.200 Maybe a January February thing that was, Yeah, that would 3046 02:19:58.239 --> 02:19:58.639 makes sense. 3047 02:19:59.239 --> 02:20:02.799 We can still continues to sell pretty well, actually even yes, 3048 02:20:02.879 --> 02:20:05.959 even still, so yeah, these updates will give it some juice. 3049 02:20:06.520 --> 02:20:08.959 You know, they definitely couldn't use some performance boosts. 3050 02:20:09.200 --> 02:20:10.040 Yeah, I'd be cured. 3051 02:20:10.079 --> 02:20:12.200 I'm really curious to see how this game looks on 3052 02:20:12.479 --> 02:20:14.680 a switch to, because sometimes it is just a matter 3053 02:20:14.680 --> 02:20:16.239 of how much work you put into it, and we've 3054 02:20:16.239 --> 02:20:20.520 seen with like the GTA trilogy, sometimes even a company's 3055 02:20:20.520 --> 02:20:23.040 biggest take to just won't put that much work into it. 3056 02:20:23.120 --> 02:20:24.840 So I hope they do a good job here. 3057 02:20:25.440 --> 02:20:25.639 Yep. 3058 02:20:26.319 --> 02:20:29.559 Mina the Hollower delayed. Yacht Club Games has announced a 3059 02:20:29.680 --> 02:20:32.879 delay for Mina the Hollower. This is the shovel Night team. 3060 02:20:33.280 --> 02:20:35.399 They were going to release this game on Halloween, October 3061 02:20:35.479 --> 02:20:39.399 thirty first. They are now releasing it on unspecified date. 3062 02:20:39.479 --> 02:20:41.360 They've not given a date, but they did say that 3063 02:20:41.479 --> 02:20:44.079 they will tell everybody the date once they submit the 3064 02:20:44.120 --> 02:20:46.920 game to platforms. So they're trying to suggest here like 3065 02:20:47.040 --> 02:20:51.399 it is a quote unquote indefinite delay in that it's 3066 02:20:51.440 --> 02:20:54.719 not being defined. But it's not like, oh, we're taking 3067 02:20:54.760 --> 02:20:56.239 this thing down and we don't know when we're going 3068 02:20:56.319 --> 02:20:58.040 to put it back out. They just want to make 3069 02:20:58.079 --> 02:21:00.959 sure that it's really finished, really and actually submit it 3070 02:21:01.000 --> 02:21:03.920 to platforms ready to go, and they'll talk about it again. 3071 02:21:04.520 --> 02:21:07.440 So we're probably talking about a month or two, probably 3072 02:21:07.479 --> 02:21:08.559 still before the end of this year. 3073 02:21:08.559 --> 02:21:11.319 I absolutely having a fancy I'm sure they wanted to 3074 02:21:11.399 --> 02:21:13.920 hit Halloween. It's like, you know, it's a fitting release 3075 02:21:14.000 --> 02:21:16.760 date for a game that has some spooky vibes like this, 3076 02:21:16.959 --> 02:21:18.840 but it can also probably add pressure to feel like 3077 02:21:18.840 --> 02:21:20.799 you have to hit this day and maybe you're rushing 3078 02:21:21.399 --> 02:21:23.719 through certain things that you'd rather take your time on 3079 02:21:23.799 --> 02:21:25.879 and make sure a really good Uh. You know, we've 3080 02:21:25.879 --> 02:21:28.760 seen a lot of games now, Soak Song Haities two 3081 02:21:28.959 --> 02:21:32.200 the biggest indie games. You can imagine, they don't tell 3082 02:21:32.200 --> 02:21:34.200 you their release date until it's like a week or 3083 02:21:34.280 --> 02:21:37.559 two out, until they are too super certain stuff. 3084 02:21:38.120 --> 02:21:40.840 We'll just have one powerwash simulator just like a couple 3085 02:21:40.840 --> 02:21:41.319 of weeks from now. 3086 02:21:41.639 --> 02:21:43.600 I think now, like I think they're all like, why 3087 02:21:43.719 --> 02:21:47.440 bothers setting up a release date, Uh that we that 3088 02:21:47.520 --> 02:21:50.239 we might miss, probably will miss these days. 3089 02:21:50.319 --> 02:21:52.120 Let's uh just wait until we really know. 3090 02:21:52.360 --> 02:21:54.360 Yeah, they announce the state a bit ago, so it's 3091 02:21:54.360 --> 02:21:56.000 a bit of a bummer, but it's probably the right 3092 02:21:56.040 --> 02:21:57.399 thing for this game, almost certainly. 3093 02:21:57.959 --> 02:21:59.760 Yeah, now that you guys talk that out, it's like, oh, yeah, 3094 02:21:59.760 --> 02:22:02.120 that's exactly what these other companies did. They submitted it 3095 02:22:02.200 --> 02:22:04.840 to platforms, got the approval, and like, oh, okay, now 3096 02:22:04.879 --> 02:22:06.520 we know two weeks from now this game's coming out, 3097 02:22:06.600 --> 02:22:09.600 so yeah, we'll probably get exactly the same thing with Mina. 3098 02:22:10.719 --> 02:22:13.159 Last week after the show, Xbox raised the price of 3099 02:22:13.200 --> 02:22:15.319 game Pass. A Game Pass Ultimate will now cost thirty 3100 02:22:15.360 --> 02:22:17.079 dollars a month. It's the twenty dollars a month. There's 3101 02:22:17.079 --> 02:22:19.159 a whole bunch of caveats. It's going to be double 3102 02:22:19.200 --> 02:22:22.639 the price in some territories, it's going to be it's 3103 02:22:22.639 --> 02:22:24.399 not gonna have all the features that it once had 3104 02:22:24.479 --> 02:22:26.440 on like the middle tier. You no longer get Call 3105 02:22:26.520 --> 02:22:28.840 of Duty eventually added to the library. 3106 02:22:29.000 --> 02:22:29.760 But whatever. 3107 02:22:29.879 --> 02:22:33.319 The big highlight here is everything's getting more expensive. They 3108 02:22:33.360 --> 02:22:35.520 are no longer trying to find new users, They're trying 3109 02:22:35.520 --> 02:22:38.559 to make more money from the same users. You know, 3110 02:22:38.639 --> 02:22:40.040 there was kind of a seemed like a rush to 3111 02:22:40.120 --> 02:22:42.159 cancel this thing. I said I would, I still have 3112 02:22:42.319 --> 02:22:44.040 not I need to do that because I'm just not 3113 02:22:44.200 --> 02:22:48.280 using this at all. Really, you know, this is overall 3114 02:22:48.440 --> 02:22:51.040 kind of part of Hey, what's going on with Xbox? 3115 02:22:51.200 --> 02:22:54.040 Like how serious are they are they about anything that's 3116 02:22:54.079 --> 02:22:55.920 not Call of Duty or Minecraft or a handful of 3117 02:22:56.000 --> 02:22:59.680 other things. And it feels like they got to justify 3118 02:23:00.200 --> 02:23:02.360 what all the money they've spent, and that comes back 3119 02:23:02.399 --> 02:23:04.879 to we need to increase prices, and of course there's 3120 02:23:04.920 --> 02:23:06.239 tariffs and all these other things. 3121 02:23:07.079 --> 02:23:07.920 But I don't know. 3122 02:23:08.000 --> 02:23:11.120 Other companies are finding creative ways or working hard to 3123 02:23:11.200 --> 02:23:13.680 keep prices down, and Microsoft does not seem interested in 3124 02:23:13.799 --> 02:23:17.159 doing that. How are we feeling about game Pass. 3125 02:23:20.120 --> 02:23:23.239 It's it's just a it's rough at that price. Even 3126 02:23:23.239 --> 02:23:25.879 though gay Pass had a pretty good year when it 3127 02:23:25.920 --> 02:23:28.879 comes to releases, even though Microsoft Microsoft themselves don't have 3128 02:23:29.040 --> 02:23:32.440 much I mean, game Pass had Exhibition thirty three, they 3129 02:23:32.559 --> 02:23:34.920 had Soak Song, they had a lot of the biggest 3130 02:23:35.000 --> 02:23:36.840 games this year. It feels like it should be able 3131 02:23:36.920 --> 02:23:39.799 to ride this momentum. It just feels like, well, if 3132 02:23:39.799 --> 02:23:41.959 it's maybe it's ever going to work out. Then, I 3133 02:23:42.000 --> 02:23:45.200 don't know what you could possibly make game Pass work 3134 02:23:45.280 --> 02:23:47.879 for you as a business plan, aside from just constantly 3135 02:23:48.000 --> 02:23:50.200 raising the price to you know, they didn't just go 3136 02:23:50.440 --> 02:23:53.280 from twenty to five or you know, twenty to twenty five, 3137 02:23:53.280 --> 02:23:57.680 they're from twenty to thirty, a huge fifty percent increase. 3138 02:23:57.799 --> 02:24:01.559 It's almost just it's almost insulting that they would just 3139 02:24:01.639 --> 02:24:04.239 immediately jump it that high. They get so clear and 3140 02:24:04.399 --> 02:24:08.239 naked that they are just going after that ten percent 3141 02:24:08.479 --> 02:24:10.719 of their fan base that will show up no matter 3142 02:24:11.159 --> 02:24:13.959 what they do. They are hurting that brand so bad 3143 02:24:14.040 --> 02:24:16.399 right now. You know, even like some of the normies 3144 02:24:16.440 --> 02:24:18.719 in my life right like, boy Xbox is done. Huh, 3145 02:24:19.319 --> 02:24:21.959 Like that's becoming the narrative. It just feels like they 3146 02:24:22.000 --> 02:24:25.200 are a spiraling out of control. And even in an 3147 02:24:25.239 --> 02:24:28.319 industry that has a pretty short memory with these things, right, 3148 02:24:28.360 --> 02:24:30.520 we've seen other brands be at low points and then 3149 02:24:30.680 --> 02:24:33.719 climb to new heights again, it's so hard to imagine 3150 02:24:33.760 --> 02:24:35.639 how Xbox gets out of this quagmire. 3151 02:24:35.799 --> 02:24:39.399 But the remember go ahead, Jen well it just real quick. 3152 02:24:39.479 --> 02:24:42.360 But the thing is, it doesn't feel like they're making 3153 02:24:42.520 --> 02:24:46.239 any active or positive steps to get out of the quagmire. 3154 02:24:46.360 --> 02:24:50.760 It's not like they switch to their sand wedge web 3155 02:24:51.159 --> 02:24:53.799 Norman bomb dot com. 3156 02:24:54.159 --> 02:24:57.280 Everybody is that the name of the thing that is 3157 02:24:58.280 --> 02:25:03.399 Sandwichka think the open Face Club, the sand wedge opening. 3158 02:25:06.479 --> 02:25:11.840 Like with every new thing I see anyone from Xbox saying, 3159 02:25:11.959 --> 02:25:15.959 it's like it's just kind of it's beyond sweep swiping 3160 02:25:16.120 --> 02:25:19.159 or sweeping the problem under the rug because like the 3161 02:25:19.319 --> 02:25:24.760 rug is like just full of coffee stains. Shrug exactly. Yeah, 3162 02:25:24.799 --> 02:25:27.040 they're actively doing it, and like, what are y'all even 3163 02:25:27.120 --> 02:25:29.639 thinking about doing? Scout, I know you're working a ship rug. 3164 02:25:29.799 --> 02:25:32.440 A shrug, that's right, that's what That's what a ship 3165 02:25:32.520 --> 02:25:34.120 rug is called. I they I think they. 3166 02:25:34.239 --> 02:25:37.280 I think what happened is they had a bunch of 3167 02:25:37.399 --> 02:25:41.120 ideas to try. They tried them all and and the 3168 02:25:41.159 --> 02:25:43.840 whole time there's someone kind of behind them being like, Hey, 3169 02:25:43.879 --> 02:25:45.639 when's this thing going to really start popping off and 3170 02:25:45.680 --> 02:25:46.520 making real money? 3171 02:25:46.760 --> 02:25:50.239 And they're like, well, once we really get game Pass. 3172 02:25:50.079 --> 02:25:52.719 Going, and star fields are going to be once we 3173 02:25:52.840 --> 02:25:55.920 have once we have starfield, Yes, once this happens, what's that? 3174 02:25:56.079 --> 02:25:59.079 And then all these things happened, nothing really changed. I'm 3175 02:25:59.079 --> 02:26:01.200 not saying these things weren't scessful or people didn't like them. 3176 02:26:01.479 --> 02:26:03.120 A lot of that stuff did happen, but as far 3177 02:26:03.159 --> 02:26:07.000 as the people standing behind of Phil Spencer were concerned, 3178 02:26:07.399 --> 02:26:10.520 this thing is not really changing its stripes at all. 3179 02:26:10.639 --> 02:26:13.120 It is still kind of the business it has always been, 3180 02:26:13.479 --> 02:26:15.360 and even if it's growing, it's not growing the way 3181 02:26:15.399 --> 02:26:18.000 that we're seeing some spaces grow like AI. And so 3182 02:26:18.120 --> 02:26:21.440 they did, they tried everything, and they are basically out 3183 02:26:21.479 --> 02:26:23.680 of excuses and now they have to sort of give 3184 02:26:23.719 --> 02:26:26.200 in and turn into the thing that the people standing 3185 02:26:26.239 --> 02:26:28.520 behind them wanted it to be, which is pop out 3186 02:26:28.600 --> 02:26:31.719 only the most popular things going forward, cut a lot 3187 02:26:31.799 --> 02:26:34.159 of cost, cut a lot of studios that aren't making 3188 02:26:34.239 --> 02:26:36.879 call of duty, and we'll just kind of go from there. 3189 02:26:37.000 --> 02:26:39.000 So it's like, yeah, it is kind of shitting in 3190 02:26:39.000 --> 02:26:41.120 the bed because they don't have any choices left in 3191 02:26:41.120 --> 02:26:42.879 front of them, really, and that's a lot of that 3192 02:26:43.040 --> 02:26:45.399 is just the way that the industry is growing and 3193 02:26:45.520 --> 02:26:48.479 not growing and not selling a lot of consoles, but whatever. 3194 02:26:49.280 --> 02:26:51.639 They should have more answers to this than they just don't. 3195 02:26:52.280 --> 02:26:59.360 I remember when, like don't you remember right when this 3196 02:27:00.120 --> 02:27:02.600 really started to take shape in a way where everyone 3197 02:27:02.760 --> 02:27:09.040 was like, whoa, this seems like the greatest value in games, right. 3198 02:27:09.760 --> 02:27:12.639 The question was always how can they continue to do 3199 02:27:12.799 --> 02:27:16.159 this forever? That was the conversation when when game Pass 3200 02:27:16.600 --> 02:27:21.559 really presented, the most compelling case was, holy shit, there's 3201 02:27:21.639 --> 02:27:23.360 no way this makes sense financially. 3202 02:27:23.879 --> 02:27:24.879 What's the end game? 3203 02:27:25.360 --> 02:27:27.719 I'm gladly pay you now for this because it seems 3204 02:27:27.760 --> 02:27:29.719 like I'm getting a tremendous deal and you're the ones 3205 02:27:29.760 --> 02:27:34.360 getting fucked over. I guess this, But like, so to 3206 02:27:34.520 --> 02:27:38.959 me with with that, you know, information not left leaving 3207 02:27:39.040 --> 02:27:42.120 my mind. I'm not surprised, right, Like I could see 3208 02:27:42.280 --> 02:27:44.360 the other shoe dropped, right, It's like, yeah, the whole 3209 02:27:44.360 --> 02:27:46.639 idea is cornered the market at the lower price, get 3210 02:27:46.639 --> 02:27:48.799 everyone on the board of this idea, and then eventually 3211 02:27:48.799 --> 02:27:50.440 you raise the price because everyone's like, well, this is 3212 02:27:50.479 --> 02:27:52.399 how I play games, right, And that's like I worked 3213 02:27:52.399 --> 02:27:53.159 for Netflix and. 3214 02:27:53.159 --> 02:27:55.200 Amazon Prime and all these other things. Sure, it just 3215 02:27:55.319 --> 02:27:57.559 it didn't get big enough like those other ones did. 3216 02:27:57.479 --> 02:28:01.520 Well, and the miscalculation being there was never a you know, 3217 02:28:01.680 --> 02:28:05.360 the opportunity to like parlay this into you know, dot 3218 02:28:05.399 --> 02:28:08.559 dot dot profit question mark was never realized in a 3219 02:28:08.639 --> 02:28:09.639 meaningful way right. 3220 02:28:09.760 --> 02:28:11.760 Yeah, I feel like that's the shoe dropping. 3221 02:28:11.799 --> 02:28:11.959 Yeah. 3222 02:28:11.959 --> 02:28:13.159 I feel like back then it was either like this 3223 02:28:13.280 --> 02:28:15.399 is going to change the industry forever and now we 3224 02:28:15.559 --> 02:28:18.399 buy games and play games, or this is too good 3225 02:28:18.440 --> 02:28:20.399 to be true and this is it's gonna be on 3226 02:28:20.479 --> 02:28:21.000 borrowed time. 3227 02:28:21.239 --> 02:28:23.760 So yeah, even if it like is making a profit, 3228 02:28:23.799 --> 02:28:26.920 which they claim often that it does, you know, I 3229 02:28:27.000 --> 02:28:29.200 think that is a fancy math a lot of times, 3230 02:28:29.280 --> 02:28:31.520 like they aren't like really taking into consideration all the 3231 02:28:31.559 --> 02:28:33.440 things that go into the cost of running something like this. 3232 02:28:33.600 --> 02:28:36.760 But even if it is it is, it has clearly 3233 02:28:36.879 --> 02:28:38.639 not grown the way that they wanted it to. There 3234 02:28:38.760 --> 02:28:41.360 was that year that Phil Spencer and Satiinadella both had 3235 02:28:41.360 --> 02:28:44.319 their bonuses tied to Game Pass growth. Neither of them 3236 02:28:44.360 --> 02:28:48.040 got those bonuses. They were expecting, poor guys. They were 3237 02:28:48.079 --> 02:28:51.319 expecting huge numbers and it stalled out at around thirty 3238 02:28:51.360 --> 02:28:54.959 million subscribers. And you compare that to Disney Plus Netflix, 3239 02:28:55.319 --> 02:28:58.760 uh maybe even Paramount Plus, Like it's probably it's probably 3240 02:28:58.799 --> 02:29:01.680 not like all the all that great, and so it's 3241 02:29:01.760 --> 02:29:04.159 like they want that growth, that's what they're looking for. 3242 02:29:04.479 --> 02:29:07.200 The growth stopped even if it's profitable, which again we 3243 02:29:07.239 --> 02:29:09.200 don't know, but they say it is. But even if 3244 02:29:09.239 --> 02:29:12.000 it is not growing, that was that just told the 3245 02:29:12.040 --> 02:29:14.280 whole story right there. They're like, Okay, so now we're 3246 02:29:14.479 --> 02:29:17.840 getting bored with this. Let's change our direction. And here 3247 02:29:17.920 --> 02:29:19.959 we are, and so like what happens to this old 3248 02:29:20.000 --> 02:29:22.200 business model? Now that's no longer the shiny new thing 3249 02:29:22.559 --> 02:29:25.319 it is. We got to sort of raise prices because 3250 02:29:25.319 --> 02:29:26.959 we just need to make more money from it. And 3251 02:29:27.040 --> 02:29:29.520 they're putting in ub Soft Plus Classics, which everyone's been 3252 02:29:29.559 --> 02:29:31.959 clamoring for. Please give us our ub Soft Plus Classics, 3253 02:29:32.040 --> 02:29:33.760 is what the kids on the street are saying. And 3254 02:29:33.840 --> 02:29:39.440 they put in Fortnite Crew. It's called Fortnite Creue. Yeah, yeah, 3255 02:29:39.520 --> 02:29:41.000 the battle Pass thing or you know, you know. 3256 02:29:41.079 --> 02:29:42.360 Get the V Bucks and stuff like that, and yeah 3257 02:29:42.360 --> 02:29:43.040 for people to play. 3258 02:29:42.879 --> 02:29:44.600 Fortnite, like you're gonna be able to do some math here, 3259 02:29:44.639 --> 02:29:46.079 but be like, oh, I get these games, and I 3260 02:29:46.120 --> 02:29:47.920 get four Ande Crew, maybe I'll play Ubi Soft games. 3261 02:29:48.000 --> 02:29:49.840 Some people are gonna be able to justify it, but 3262 02:29:50.040 --> 02:29:53.120 most people, I think are just gonna see thirty dollars 3263 02:29:53.280 --> 02:29:53.760 say I'm. 3264 02:29:53.639 --> 02:29:55.360 Out of here, and we're not. 3265 02:29:55.520 --> 02:29:58.600 We're not done right. The price doesn't stop here, it's 3266 02:29:58.680 --> 02:29:59.920 going to be forty dollars a month. 3267 02:29:59.799 --> 02:30:00.479 That couple of years. 3268 02:30:00.600 --> 02:30:02.280 Yeah, like I thought they'd do like two dollars and 3269 02:30:02.319 --> 02:30:06.319 fifty cents per per increase, right, small five percent increases 3270 02:30:06.360 --> 02:30:09.479 here or there, a fifty percent increase and one go 3271 02:30:10.319 --> 02:30:12.920 is bananas, and it says, oh, we can just keep 3272 02:30:12.959 --> 02:30:15.120 going up from here, Like fifty dollars a month is 3273 02:30:15.159 --> 02:30:17.280 probably not off the table within the next ten years 3274 02:30:17.319 --> 02:30:20.000 for this thing, and maybe that's longer than really it 3275 02:30:20.040 --> 02:30:23.799 will take for them to get there. And then meanwhile, 3276 02:30:24.000 --> 02:30:26.360 because of all this, there's a lot of like bad 3277 02:30:26.559 --> 02:30:29.479 vibes around the Xbox brand. Some rumors began to spread 3278 02:30:29.559 --> 02:30:32.799 that they are kind of changing their plans for doing 3279 02:30:32.959 --> 02:30:36.399 a full on Xbox next Gen thing. There's been some 3280 02:30:36.520 --> 02:30:38.959 back and forth about this. Xbox did come out and 3281 02:30:39.000 --> 02:30:41.520 point out, hey, we have a deal with AMD to 3282 02:30:41.600 --> 02:30:43.959 make a system on a chip for our next hardware. 3283 02:30:44.399 --> 02:30:46.840 We are going to We're still in this. Now, what 3284 02:30:47.000 --> 02:30:48.840 exactly does that look like? Is it going to look 3285 02:30:48.840 --> 02:30:51.120 a lot like a traditional Xbox? Well, the rumors for 3286 02:30:51.200 --> 02:30:52.600 a long time have been no, it's going to be 3287 02:30:52.639 --> 02:30:56.079 a PC basically that has some Windows OS version on 3288 02:30:56.159 --> 02:30:57.760 it that makes it feel like a console. 3289 02:30:58.440 --> 02:30:59.920 I to me that I think that's still there. 3290 02:31:00.079 --> 02:31:04.479 Focus is make Windows based Xboxes and change up the 3291 02:31:04.520 --> 02:31:08.040 strategy in that way. But they claim that they're still 3292 02:31:08.040 --> 02:31:11.360 making Xboxes going forward. We've talked about that a bunch 3293 02:31:11.399 --> 02:31:12.959 of times. But I don't know what do you guys 3294 02:31:13.040 --> 02:31:16.280 even want or expect from the next Xbox. 3295 02:31:16.440 --> 02:31:17.520 I don't want anything. 3296 02:31:18.360 --> 02:31:20.639 Yeah, yeah, I can't imagine what I think i'd possibly 3297 02:31:20.680 --> 02:31:24.680 do to make it exciting anymore. Yeah, yeah, I mean, 3298 02:31:25.239 --> 02:31:25.639 I don't know. 3299 02:31:25.920 --> 02:31:29.159 I think they are a bit out of a crossroads 3300 02:31:29.159 --> 02:31:30.000 where it's like. 3301 02:31:32.360 --> 02:31:34.079 The time to Yeah, I don't know. 3302 02:31:34.239 --> 02:31:37.000 I always and maybe this is just like an antiquated 3303 02:31:37.000 --> 02:31:39.440 way to think any more, of like the combining of 3304 02:31:39.520 --> 02:31:43.120 like their their PC lane with the idea of owning 3305 02:31:43.159 --> 02:31:47.120 a console, where it's like, maybe Xbox is just an idea, 3306 02:31:47.440 --> 02:31:49.319 let alone a thing you can turn on and off. 3307 02:31:49.799 --> 02:31:54.479 I don't know, but it's certainly, especially as we end 3308 02:31:54.639 --> 02:31:58.520 this generation, having this kind of negative momentum is not 3309 02:31:58.639 --> 02:31:59.840 setting them up for anything. 3310 02:32:02.239 --> 02:32:04.959 Xbox is dedicated handheld. Meanwhile, that thing that was rumored 3311 02:32:04.959 --> 02:32:07.879 a long time ago, separate from the Asus Roger ally 3312 02:32:08.280 --> 02:32:10.360 Xbox X whatever the fuck it's called. 3313 02:32:11.360 --> 02:32:12.520 This is a separate from that. 3314 02:32:12.879 --> 02:32:15.239 There was rumors about why that was canceled, and it's 3315 02:32:15.280 --> 02:32:17.559 because apparently AMD was like, hey, we'll make you this chip, 3316 02:32:17.639 --> 02:32:19.959 you have to guarantee you you'll buy ten million of them. 3317 02:32:20.520 --> 02:32:22.799 An Xbox like, oh, well, you know the steam decks 3318 02:32:22.840 --> 02:32:25.319 only sold five million. We're afraid to commit to that now. 3319 02:32:25.680 --> 02:32:27.360 Jess Gordon's come on and said that the story is 3320 02:32:27.399 --> 02:32:29.120 not true. He didn't say exactly what part of the 3321 02:32:29.120 --> 02:32:31.799 story's not true, although I imagine it's this thing right 3322 02:32:31.840 --> 02:32:34.680 here where it's like AMD demanded ten million chips. That 3323 02:32:34.879 --> 02:32:38.520 sounds not right to me because AMD has definitely made 3324 02:32:38.680 --> 02:32:41.879 fewer chips for that for people before. But maybe something 3325 02:32:41.920 --> 02:32:45.440 about this requires so much effort that I don't know. 3326 02:32:45.600 --> 02:32:47.840 I mean, frankly, why wouldn't they just use something off 3327 02:32:47.920 --> 02:32:50.440 the shelf like everything else does Steam Deck the Roger 3328 02:32:50.479 --> 02:32:52.479 ally just use one of those and build your OSS 3329 02:32:52.559 --> 02:32:55.079 on top of that. None of that really sounds right 3330 02:32:55.159 --> 02:32:58.000 to me, But whatever, For some reason, Xbox did put 3331 02:32:58.040 --> 02:33:02.200 their handheld They're dedicated handheld on hold, which again says 3332 02:33:02.239 --> 02:33:04.559 to me, they're going to focus on the OS. We'll 3333 02:33:04.600 --> 02:33:07.719 see that Roger is that thing out out yet or 3334 02:33:07.799 --> 02:33:12.120 is it about to be a yeah, okay, uh and 3335 02:33:12.200 --> 02:33:15.559 then last thing here still Xbox. Virtuos is currently working 3336 02:33:15.639 --> 02:33:18.840 on a remake of Halo Combat Evolved. According to a rumor, 3337 02:33:19.200 --> 02:33:21.000 this is the team that that that did Metal Gear 3338 02:33:21.079 --> 02:33:26.079 Solid Delta. They did something else recently, They did Oblivion 3339 02:33:26.239 --> 02:33:28.600 with Xbox, and it sounds like they're gonna do something 3340 02:33:28.639 --> 02:33:31.840 similar here where they're going to take the underlying tech 3341 02:33:32.200 --> 02:33:36.200 of Halo Combat Evolved and then take the unreal Engine 3342 02:33:36.280 --> 02:33:39.399 five and apply that visual polish on top of that. 3343 02:33:39.959 --> 02:33:43.760 And Virtuous has some experience with that, so uh, It's 3344 02:33:43.840 --> 02:33:47.799 not not necessarily what I'm craving for, But but I think, 3345 02:33:48.000 --> 02:33:49.600 you know, this does give them a chance to maybe 3346 02:33:49.799 --> 02:33:53.200 buy Halo some time, reintroduce it to people who might 3347 02:33:53.280 --> 02:33:54.760 not be on board with that, and put it out 3348 02:33:54.799 --> 02:33:58.639 on PlayStation and Switch and sort of say, hey, like you, 3349 02:33:58.760 --> 02:34:00.479 maybe do you care about Halo. Shit, we do another 3350 02:34:00.520 --> 02:34:02.239 one of these, a new one of these, and put 3351 02:34:02.280 --> 02:34:05.479 it out everywhere. But I don't know, it just really 3352 02:34:05.520 --> 02:34:07.319 feels like Halo's time has passed. 3353 02:34:07.760 --> 02:34:08.559 But maybe I'm wrong. 3354 02:34:08.799 --> 02:34:11.959 I mean, they could always bounce back the boy. They 3355 02:34:12.000 --> 02:34:13.840 can't mess this one up, though. This thing has to 3356 02:34:13.920 --> 02:34:17.239 come out and be pretty pristine if they want to 3357 02:34:17.319 --> 02:34:22.440 repair Halo's image. And that Oblivion remake was pretty good, 3358 02:34:22.479 --> 02:34:24.879 but it was very heavy and it was not running 3359 02:34:24.879 --> 02:34:27.440 great on a lot of platforms, and I don't think 3360 02:34:27.479 --> 02:34:30.399 people are going to tolerate that. Again, this should be 3361 02:34:30.440 --> 02:34:33.360 an easier ass This isn't some giant open world game 3362 02:34:33.440 --> 02:34:38.600 like Oblivion is. It has open areas, for sure, but yeah, 3363 02:34:38.680 --> 02:34:41.360 they gotta nail this one. It can't look weird, it 3364 02:34:41.440 --> 02:34:45.840 can't run weird. It's gotta basically be Halo one, but 3365 02:34:46.120 --> 02:34:48.920 much prettier. It's gotta have all the multiplayer stuff people want. 3366 02:34:48.959 --> 02:34:52.879 The gunplay needs to feel just right. It sounds like 3367 02:34:52.959 --> 02:34:55.760 a safe thing to do and yet also a difficult ask. 3368 02:34:57.319 --> 02:34:58.879 And that does it for the news. Jan the show 3369 02:34:59.000 --> 02:35:01.079 is back over to you. Grab. Can I posit a 3370 02:35:01.159 --> 02:35:05.000 question to you? Please? What if they made Halo a 3371 02:35:05.120 --> 02:35:08.840 rogue light? I mean, that's a good idea. That's that'd 3372 02:35:08.879 --> 02:35:11.079 be fun, man, Yeah, let's do it. You know what 3373 02:35:11.159 --> 02:35:12.399 else is age light? 3374 02:35:12.600 --> 02:35:12.840 Yeah? 3375 02:35:13.040 --> 02:35:15.760 I fully agree with you. What sounds like a great 3376 02:35:15.799 --> 02:35:19.079 idea is taking a quick coffee break and then we'll 3377 02:35:19.120 --> 02:35:22.440 be back with emails. And super chats and who knows 3378 02:35:22.479 --> 02:35:23.840 what else we'll be back with. We'll see on the 3379 02:35:23.879 --> 02:35:29.799 other side. Rub It's okay, just look at it.

Has been there for me the whole time. 3393 02:36:02.399 --> 02:36:04.319 They mean a ton to me, so it hurt me, 3394 02:36:04.760 --> 02:36:06.000 just like I know it hurt a lot of you. 3395 02:36:06.360 --> 02:36:08.760 When the unexpected news came down not too long ago 3396 02:36:08.879 --> 02:36:10.879 that Game Informer was shutting down. 3397 02:36:11.639 --> 02:36:14.680 But nay, fair not, I say that's right. 3398 02:36:14.799 --> 02:36:18.959 Game Informer is back, and with one hundred percent of 3399 02:36:19.079 --> 02:36:21.200 the staff that was there when it shut down. 3400 02:36:21.440 --> 02:36:24.239 Now, Danny boy, I see that you're holding a magazine 3401 02:36:24.360 --> 02:36:27.040 right there. Tell me about how that page feels. 3402 02:36:27.639 --> 02:36:31.120 I'm telling you, I have held hundreds upon hundreds of 3403 02:36:31.200 --> 02:36:34.920 Game Informer magazines from nineteen ninety three to today, and 3404 02:36:35.120 --> 02:36:37.760 this is, without a doubt the best. But I'm feeling 3405 02:36:37.840 --> 02:36:39.879 this right now. This is this is a smooth cover, 3406 02:36:40.360 --> 02:36:43.159 This is a thick, nice paper here, the print is 3407 02:36:43.280 --> 02:36:46.920 just this is a wonderful quality print magazine. It makes 3408 02:36:46.920 --> 02:36:47.639 my heart feel good. 3409 02:36:47.719 --> 02:36:49.879 And I know that Game Informer is a team that 3410 02:36:50.040 --> 02:36:53.200 I can rely on to say something substantial about games 3411 02:36:53.319 --> 02:36:55.319 and the people who make them, because GII has a 3412 02:36:55.479 --> 02:36:56.559 stellar crew of editors. 3413 02:36:56.600 --> 02:36:57.360 This these are people I. 3414 02:36:57.440 --> 02:36:59.600 Love to have on the couch at Giant Bomb at night, 3415 02:37:00.040 --> 02:37:02.159 for at Summer Game Fest. It's people I can always 3416 02:37:02.159 --> 02:37:04.399 rely to have something interesting to say. That's why I 3417 02:37:04.520 --> 02:37:07.040 know when they have those excellent cover stories, just like 3418 02:37:07.120 --> 02:37:09.440 they always did and always will continue to do. So 3419 02:37:10.120 --> 02:37:11.879 it's going to be some of the best coverage in 3420 02:37:12.040 --> 02:37:12.639 video games. 3421 02:37:12.799 --> 02:37:16.440 And another fun bonus, Game Informer donates five percent of 3422 02:37:16.639 --> 02:37:20.760 every subscription purchase directly to Saint Jude Children's Research Hospital. 3423 02:37:20.840 --> 02:37:23.799 You know, earlier this year the future seemed very uncertain 3424 02:37:23.879 --> 02:37:26.799 for both Game Informer and Giant Bomb.

Email's first 3460 02:39:25.799 --> 02:39:29.479 email comes from David from St. Charles, Illinois. Hey, dudes, 3461 02:39:29.840 --> 02:39:32.799 every now and then, I asked myself dumb questions that 3462 02:39:32.959 --> 02:39:36.000 asking out loud would likely get dumb looks. I routinely 3463 02:39:36.040 --> 02:39:38.520 asked myself what do other people do when with their 3464 02:39:38.600 --> 02:39:40.920 other arm when brushing their teeth? The reason I ask 3465 02:39:41.040 --> 02:39:44.000 is because sometimes I notice myself clenching a fist for 3466 02:39:44.120 --> 02:39:48.600 the entire duration, sometimes just passively scratching, or sometimes just dangling. 3467 02:39:49.200 --> 02:39:51.520 Most everyone else likely has never thought about this, but 3468 02:39:51.600 --> 02:39:55.760 I'm curious what others say.

Yeah. 3610 02:46:30.719 --> 02:46:32.879 This is because during travel the team would play the 3611 02:46:32.920 --> 02:46:35.799 game together, which he felt enhanced their communication and teamwork 3612 02:46:36.079 --> 02:46:38.440 in a way which improved results on the pitch. My 3613 02:46:38.639 --> 02:46:42.079 question is have you ever heard any other celebrity who 3614 02:46:42.159 --> 02:46:44.760 have attributed any of their success to video games? And 3615 02:46:44.840 --> 02:46:46.799 do you personally feel there were games which developed a 3616 02:46:46.840 --> 02:46:49.440 skill which was useful or relevant to you outside of 3617 02:46:49.520 --> 02:46:51.760 video games. Keep up the fantastic work, Caleb. 3618 02:46:52.440 --> 02:46:55.479 There was that NASCAR driver recently who like did some 3619 02:46:55.840 --> 02:46:58.239 where you like grinded the wall and then he's like, yeah, 3620 02:46:58.280 --> 02:47:01.479 I learned that in the GameCube now car games the 3621 02:47:01.680 --> 02:47:04.000 price it worked, Yeah, and it didn't like. 3622 02:47:04.000 --> 02:47:05.319 He went from like he was not going to like 3623 02:47:05.360 --> 02:47:07.639 make the playoff or something, and then because he did that, 3624 02:47:07.719 --> 02:47:10.440 he went up like seven spots and made the playoff 3625 02:47:10.440 --> 02:47:11.000 at the playoffs. 3626 02:47:11.040 --> 02:47:11.559 It really worked. 3627 02:47:11.600 --> 02:47:12.040 It's crazy. 3628 02:47:12.079 --> 02:47:14.120 And then they banned the move because it worked too well. 3629 02:47:14.200 --> 02:47:15.920 Oh yeah, it's kind of super dangerous. 3630 02:47:16.079 --> 02:47:19.559 Isn't that what the grandt Tourismo movie is trying to say? 3631 02:47:19.680 --> 02:47:20.159 Pretty much? 3632 02:47:21.239 --> 02:47:23.159 Movie is like a true story about a guy who 3633 02:47:23.280 --> 02:47:25.920 is good good in Grand turismo and like want a 3634 02:47:25.959 --> 02:47:27.959 competition to become a real race car driver, and then 3635 02:47:28.040 --> 02:47:29.479 became a really good race car driver. 3636 02:47:29.600 --> 02:47:31.159 I guess I don't know how true. 3637 02:47:31.040 --> 02:47:34.760 That is, but I want to still do this business 3638 02:47:35.000 --> 02:47:38.959 of Uh, there's an important thing in all sports footwork 3639 02:47:39.440 --> 02:47:41.120 of being able to move your feet around and be 3640 02:47:41.159 --> 02:47:42.840 able to like kind of like move like without like 3641 02:47:43.040 --> 02:47:44.799 thinking about it too much, and kind of being fast 3642 02:47:44.840 --> 02:47:48.360 on your toes And there is nothing better for practicing that. 3643 02:47:48.440 --> 02:47:50.120 And I don't think they've ever like, there's no one 3644 02:47:50.159 --> 02:47:51.680 in sports that has actually realized this. 3645 02:47:52.079 --> 02:47:52.559 DDR. 3646 02:47:53.239 --> 02:47:56.280 Getting good at DDR would make a quarterback better like 3647 02:47:56.399 --> 02:47:59.280 running backs, like kind of like really any sport, I bet, 3648 02:47:59.479 --> 02:48:02.959 being able to fastly quickly shift your weight from one 3649 02:48:03.040 --> 02:48:06.440 side to the other without without really thinking I think 3650 02:48:06.479 --> 02:48:07.920 that would be like one of those things where you 3651 02:48:07.959 --> 02:48:10.200 could like run like a oh, I'm gonna help little 3652 02:48:10.280 --> 02:48:12.680 lingers get better at baseball or whatever, and charge parents 3653 02:48:12.719 --> 02:48:15.360 way too much money just to play DDR and be 3654 02:48:15.399 --> 02:48:16.399 like yeah, yeah, just play that. 3655 02:48:16.760 --> 02:48:19.360 I know what I'm talking about. So yeah, I think 3656 02:48:19.399 --> 02:48:20.159 that could really work. 3657 02:48:23.520 --> 02:48:27.680 I think, uh, it doesn't always translate, but I do 3658 02:48:27.879 --> 02:48:31.200 think sports games obviously not the skill of the sport, 3659 02:48:31.280 --> 02:48:34.760 but understanding the broad strokes of the game and strategy 3660 02:48:34.920 --> 02:48:40.879 I think is helpful. You know, Like, you know, there's 3661 02:48:40.920 --> 02:48:43.600 a lot like right now, with the age that deplays 3662 02:48:43.639 --> 02:48:45.399 hockey at, you've got a lot of kids who like 3663 02:48:45.520 --> 02:48:48.559 clearly watch a lot of hockey and kids who clearly don't. 3664 02:48:48.799 --> 02:48:52.600 So there is a lot of positioning there that I think, 3665 02:48:53.120 --> 02:48:55.479 you know, makes a lot of sense. But yeah, I 3666 02:48:55.479 --> 02:48:59.840 don't know, like actual you've heard it before. I do 3667 02:49:00.079 --> 02:49:02.799 thinking the way Rooney's describing it, where it's like attributing 3668 02:49:03.200 --> 02:49:06.399 a mechanism of like communication, right, yeah, sure, Like this 3669 02:49:06.600 --> 02:49:10.159 is the thing that kept me sane, cooperation separate from like, 3670 02:49:10.319 --> 02:49:14.200 oh I learned how to grind rails by playing right, 3671 02:49:14.319 --> 02:49:14.920 of course. 3672 02:49:15.600 --> 02:49:17.760 I had a friend that like picked up the drums 3673 02:49:17.920 --> 02:49:20.719 because of rock band and always like a pretty decent 3674 02:49:20.799 --> 02:49:24.360 drummer like before Homie could not keep rhythm for shit. 3675 02:49:24.479 --> 02:49:27.840 Yeah, I think for rock band specifically, that's probably the 3676 02:49:27.920 --> 02:49:30.959 only instrument you can really well, aside keeping time. 3677 02:49:30.799 --> 02:49:35.360 Man Rocksmith, which is like actual guitars.
