1 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:21,199 Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to side Quest. This is our video 2 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,839 game show here Atking First. I'm your host, Deil must 3 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,600 Net with me before democracy. Taylor Field, how are you 4 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:29,280 doing tonight, my friend, I'm. 5 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 2: Doing good feet first, Ready to dive into this episode 6 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:33,200 with you tonight? 7 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, good pun there. We have a fun show today. 8 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,240 We're gonna be talking about Old Divers two, which just 9 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,880 recently launched on Xbox, so Taylor and the rest of 10 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,359 us have been playing some more of that. Rogue Prince 11 00:00:44,399 --> 00:00:45,679 of Persia is a game I've been playing for the 12 00:00:45,719 --> 00:00:47,159 last couple weeks. Excited to talk about that. And then 13 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:48,960 we're just gonna do a little a little check in 14 00:00:49,039 --> 00:00:51,719 of the game release calendar for the for the fall, 15 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,600 now that we're officially into September, just have a couple 16 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,840 of short months here before we get into you know, 17 00:00:57,119 --> 00:00:59,399 Game Awards, Game of the Year, all this kind of 18 00:00:59,439 --> 00:01:01,439 fun stuff. So we're just gonna look at what is 19 00:01:02,039 --> 00:01:03,799 what we can expect for these last couple of months, 20 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,200 and I'll make a little baby bit of predictions, maybe 21 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:07,920 talk to switch to a little bit more as well, 22 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,359 so it should be a fun episode. The only shout 23 00:01:10,359 --> 00:01:12,239 out I'll do right here at the top is that 24 00:01:12,359 --> 00:01:15,000 we released two episodes last week, one of which was 25 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:19,000 the video game Trivia episode, which I'm I'm really happy. 26 00:01:19,079 --> 00:01:20,319 I think it was a really fun time. It's a 27 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,560 big media episode, to go check it out. And if 28 00:01:22,599 --> 00:01:24,840 you miss it, at the end of that, like last 29 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,840 half an hour twenty minutes of that is where we 30 00:01:26,879 --> 00:01:28,799 did a check int the draft and also added more 31 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:29,439 games to it. 32 00:01:29,519 --> 00:01:30,439 Speaker 2: So if the. 33 00:01:30,439 --> 00:01:32,079 Speaker 1: Trivia, if you're not into trivia, I don't like trivia, 34 00:01:32,079 --> 00:01:34,200 I don't know who doesn't like trivia, But if you don't, 35 00:01:34,359 --> 00:01:35,840 at least skip down to the end of that. There's, 36 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:37,680 you know, in the in the comments, you can see 37 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,120 where the time stamp is for that. Go go ahead 38 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,599 and check out that that update to the draft because 39 00:01:43,599 --> 00:01:44,959 that's kind of relevant for what we're talking about here, 40 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:46,879 because we also obviously picked games that are coming out 41 00:01:46,879 --> 00:01:48,840 in these last few months here. So a really fun 42 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,280 episode though, definitely check it out. And yeah, as Taylor mentioned, 43 00:01:52,319 --> 00:01:55,079 let's dive right into this one. So All Divers too. 44 00:01:55,159 --> 00:01:57,359 As a game that came out I think it was 45 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,000 a year and a half ago right at this point, 46 00:02:00,319 --> 00:02:03,439 came out twenty twenty four January, so it's been a 47 00:02:03,519 --> 00:02:06,359 while now. I think it was in that pocket on 48 00:02:06,439 --> 00:02:10,319 PlayStation and PC, and it is now out on Xbox 49 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,319 and has full cross play and all that kind of 50 00:02:12,319 --> 00:02:14,159 fun stuff, so easy for people to get back in 51 00:02:14,199 --> 00:02:17,439 there kind of revitalize the game a little bit. And Taylor, 52 00:02:17,439 --> 00:02:19,879 I gotta say, I I can't recall the last time 53 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,840 I've seen you this excited for a game, like, not 54 00:02:23,879 --> 00:02:26,599 even the most recent Assassin's Creed, you know, any of 55 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,280 these call of Duties, Like, I can't think of the 56 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,199 last time you've been this excited for a video game thing, 57 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,080 at least from my perception. That's is that sound pretty 58 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:35,520 accurate to you? This is kind of the most hyped 59 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,719 you've been on a game release in the last while. 60 00:02:38,159 --> 00:02:40,199 Speaker 2: I think you're pretty spot on, to be honest. And 61 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,800 it's just I think it's accessibility, the gameplay, and uh, 62 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,159 it's it's the theme like everything that it's incorporated. 63 00:02:48,479 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: Because you're a big Starship Troopers guy. Is that kind 64 00:02:50,599 --> 00:02:51,599 of the main reason? Would you say? 65 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 2: Starship Troopers love Starship Troopers? And and I mean, there's 66 00:02:56,479 --> 00:02:58,479 just so much going on with this game. And I 67 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,759 was talking to Madison because you on the couch, she 68 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,840 doesn't know why I'm going head over heels for this game. 69 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,599 But I look at her and I like, most of 70 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,280 the time when I'm playing, I'm not even sitting on 71 00:03:07,319 --> 00:03:10,159 the couch. I'm leaning forward on my coffee table like 72 00:03:10,319 --> 00:03:13,680 full on, like just I'm I'm just I'm so enveloped 73 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,800 in this. I look at Madison, I'm like, why do 74 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:17,919 you think, Like, guys just love this? And it's like 75 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,759 the cut scene where the destroyer jumps into that orbit 76 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,199 and like the drop pods to shoot out, and like, 77 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,520 what is it about this? It's just you know, just 78 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,280 gets the blood pumping and the music sticking in and 79 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,000 just ready to go into hell. And she's like, I 80 00:03:31,039 --> 00:03:32,080 don't know, Taylor. 81 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a yeah, that's a funny thing. I did 82 00:03:36,199 --> 00:03:38,400 be funny to analyze, like why why that is? And 83 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,120 I guess it does feel like a pretty testastrum field 84 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,400 like dude sort of game. But I'm sure a lot 85 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,759 of different types of people enjoy it as well. So yeah, 86 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,000 over the weekend, you know, it came out Thursday. I mean, 87 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,159 I've had a PS five for a while as so 88 00:03:50,439 --> 00:03:51,759 I could have played this game for a while, but 89 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,840 it was kind of more with you and Travis jumping 90 00:03:53,879 --> 00:03:55,520 in that I was kind of excited to get back 91 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,599 in there and finally check this game out for myself. 92 00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,199 So even though it's still like full price, the same 93 00:03:59,199 --> 00:04:00,919 price it was when it came, I finally bought it 94 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,080 over the last few days here, and I did not 95 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:04,840 get to play much just one night because I was 96 00:04:04,919 --> 00:04:06,879 kind of away all weekend. So what we did like 97 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,199 four matches maybe overall three four something like that. How 98 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,520 much have you played of this game now, because you 99 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,120 obviously pitched more of the weekend. You had played even 100 00:04:14,159 --> 00:04:16,319 before we had jumped in on Friday night, So how 101 00:04:16,319 --> 00:04:19,120 many games roughly or hours or whatever do you think 102 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:20,040 you've played at this point. 103 00:04:20,199 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 2: I've played every night since it's released, after podcasts and 104 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,759 then up till midnight, and I'll probably try a little 105 00:04:27,759 --> 00:04:28,720 bit more tonight too. 106 00:04:28,639 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 1: But okay, I'm down, dude. After I'm done editing this, 107 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,680 I will I'll do some more dropping if you're. 108 00:04:32,519 --> 00:04:35,879 Speaker 2: Down, Okay, Okay, cool, I've gotten up to the point 109 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:43,920 where I've got it's after suicide, like impossible difficulty. I've 110 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,480 just been having like it's because we did the version 111 00:04:47,879 --> 00:04:52,480 or the we broke off from fighting off the insects 112 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,199 and we faced off against and this is the faction 113 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,240 that was introduced later to my knowledge, because you have 114 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,639 the robots, you have the insects, and then you've got 115 00:04:59,639 --> 00:05:03,720 these a zombie robot future sci fi war the world. 116 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: It's like just zealot. 117 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,439 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, and as chaotic as that is, I really 118 00:05:09,759 --> 00:05:12,319 am satisfied and get a lot of enjoyment at are 119 00:05:12,319 --> 00:05:16,399 playing against them. But then the the insects that were 120 00:05:16,399 --> 00:05:18,959 facing off against I've had so many Starship Trooper moments, 121 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,240 Like earlier today, I had a moment where like the 122 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,759 shuttle is coming down and I've got my full squad 123 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,759 with me and I just pan her out and look 124 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,639 out onto this like empty barren horizon and it's just 125 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,959 like the massive ones coming at us, like three of them, 126 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,199 hordes of just the the insects like flooding, and I'm like, 127 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,279 this is just so satisfying and just popping in all 128 00:05:41,319 --> 00:05:43,639 the Century turrets. The air strikes are coming in and 129 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,920 that drop ship lands and the music kicks in. 130 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:51,639 Speaker 1: Oh that's yeah, that's great. It's it's funny because I 131 00:05:51,639 --> 00:05:54,600 feel like right now, like my perception of the game 132 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,639 was like, oh yeah, you're dropping in and there's enemies everywhere, 133 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,560 swarms from all sides. You don't have a moment to breathe. 134 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,240 But so far my experience has been like, Okay, there's 135 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,279 like moments where you know a lot of enemies are 136 00:06:05,319 --> 00:06:06,839 swarming in, but there's also a lot of just like 137 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,759 running across an empty map and your run is kind 138 00:06:09,759 --> 00:06:11,160 of slow, and then if you run for a while, 139 00:06:11,319 --> 00:06:12,959 your character like gets out of breath and you start 140 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,399 like taking damage, you kind of like slow down. I 141 00:06:15,399 --> 00:06:17,199 know there's like cars and mechs and all these things 142 00:06:17,199 --> 00:06:18,959 you unlock, but I think that's a part of it. 143 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,399 Like I still feel like i've barely I still feel 144 00:06:21,399 --> 00:06:23,480 like I'm in the tutorial, even though I've done literally 145 00:06:23,519 --> 00:06:25,160 the tutorial and played a bunch of games after that, 146 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,160 because as you mentioned, like as you're unlocking these higher difficulties, 147 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,680 I'm sure just the amount of enemies and like I 148 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,519 don't know the things they do, and just the variety 149 00:06:32,639 --> 00:06:35,439 enemy types you're seeing increases and all that. But then 150 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,319 obviously as you get like different equipment and more of this, 151 00:06:38,519 --> 00:06:40,240 like I don't know a lot of the stuff that 152 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,680 else you traverse, like late greater ranges and distances I'm 153 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,480 sure that changes it a lot too. So, I mean 154 00:06:45,519 --> 00:06:47,199 I'm having a great time with it so far, because, 155 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,279 like you know, throw me in a lobby with you 156 00:06:49,319 --> 00:06:51,639 and Travis, it's like, I'm gonna have a good time to Nomeever, 157 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,240 what game we're playing, we'll be playing with the worst 158 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:54,560 game of the year, and we'll probably still have a 159 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,920 good time just laughing and joking around. But yeah, this 160 00:06:56,959 --> 00:06:59,000 game is very cool, but so far as yeah, it's 161 00:06:59,079 --> 00:07:01,720 very different than I would expecting. But I don't know, 162 00:07:01,759 --> 00:07:03,839 do you do you feel like it changed, like the difficulty, 163 00:07:04,639 --> 00:07:06,560 Does it change a lot of like the quantity of 164 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,759 enemies or is it more just like they have more HP? 165 00:07:08,959 --> 00:07:09,519 Would you say? 166 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 2: So far, I'd say the difficulty is adding new, more 167 00:07:14,199 --> 00:07:17,639 powerful units to the match, and it's also scaling the 168 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,439 factor of spawning in. I would say when you just 169 00:07:20,439 --> 00:07:22,360 go in the lower difficulties, you have more of like 170 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,600 a breathing period at the start before the waves start 171 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,519 hitting in. When you do the higher difficulty, like they're there, 172 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,519 like it's it's armies everywhere. You don't have hardly any 173 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,000 time to drop your armor down and get what you need, 174 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,199 your weapons, everything like that. At your drop pods, your 175 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,040 your stratagems, I should say. So there's that, and then 176 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,439 you're dealing with I want to say, they have more HP, 177 00:07:45,759 --> 00:07:48,360 but there's some units depending on where you hit them, 178 00:07:49,519 --> 00:07:52,160 year one shotting them, some of the huge, massive, four 179 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:56,680 leg giant insects. One precise shot and it's down. It's 180 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,720 it's killed. And I thought, Okay, that's pretty good to know, 181 00:07:58,759 --> 00:08:01,360 whereas just firing on this thing with your regular assaul 182 00:08:01,439 --> 00:08:03,439 rifles not gonna really do much in the long run. 183 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:04,399 Speaker 1: Mm hmm. 184 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 185 00:08:05,079 --> 00:08:07,279 Speaker 1: And so have you play You've obviously done some matters 186 00:08:07,319 --> 00:08:09,439 against like the robots. Now like the third faction. 187 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 2: No, that's the one I haven't and I haven't and 188 00:08:11,759 --> 00:08:14,199 I'm kind of just savoring it. I thought, okay, well, 189 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,800 like i've done just the two other factions, I'm gonna 190 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,120 I'm just gonna wait, I don't. I'm gonna treat that 191 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,879 as a treat when I get my fill with these 192 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,079 two factions. And I dive into that and think, Okay, 193 00:08:24,079 --> 00:08:25,480 this is cool because now it's like a whole new 194 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,759 experience because I've seen a few reels of what the 195 00:08:27,879 --> 00:08:30,560 robots have for their units and just all the different 196 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,440 stuff that they're popping off, and it's just it's exciting. 197 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,559 That'll be like my own little DLC kind of experience, 198 00:08:36,639 --> 00:08:37,919 I guess for when I get there. 199 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, I'm excited to see that, and even 200 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:42,960 just like get into more of the zones that I 201 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,320 haven't been to yet because so far, i'd be like, yeah, 202 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,879 the insect zones are like what generally much more open, uh, 203 00:08:49,039 --> 00:08:50,559 and you know you can kind of see a lot 204 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,240 more whereas when we were getting into yeah, I don't 205 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:53,720 even know the name of them, but like the zombie 206 00:08:54,519 --> 00:08:55,919 zombie zelot kind of things, the. 207 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,519 Speaker 2: Illuminat Illuminus illuminati. I think they will think the illuminate 208 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:00,440 that sounds about right. 209 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: But like even like, man, I was getting into some 210 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,200 sequences where I'm getting chased, I'm getting separated from the 211 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:06,799 pack a little bit, so I'm kind of running away. 212 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:08,919 You know, they got the freaking like carpet bombs that 213 00:09:08,919 --> 00:09:10,960 they're doing constantly, so I'm trying to stay off the streets, 214 00:09:11,279 --> 00:09:13,320 so trying to stay like under the audience, under the buildings, 215 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,120 and then just you know, getting separate from you guys, 216 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:16,960 kind of getting chased into a corner, being in like 217 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,960 short cramped little alleyways and just like that colsterphotic feeling 218 00:09:20,919 --> 00:09:22,200 of I don't even know what's behind me. I don't 219 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:23,759 know if there's anything behind me or if it's just 220 00:09:23,799 --> 00:09:26,080 a wall. And if I get cornered here, I'm not 221 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,080 gonna have the gunpower, like the reload dime able to 222 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,840 get out of here, and like so that completely that's 223 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,639 completely opposite to what like fighting against the bugs feels 224 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:37,720 like where you can get cornered in claustrophobic chlaustrophobia by 225 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,759 the ventnue word there by the bugs. But like you know, 226 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,960 generally the map is like fairly open, and I'm sure 227 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,240 I don't even in the different bug areas and zones. 228 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,000 I'm sure the maps change quite a bit and there's 229 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,480 a little variations there. But yeah, it does feel like 230 00:09:49,639 --> 00:09:52,720 almost like two completely different games, different types of strategies. 231 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:54,440 And I think that's a fun part of it too, 232 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,639 is like all the objectives going on in these different maps, 233 00:09:56,799 --> 00:09:58,440 because I have to I guess there's like a lot 234 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,679 of randomization to the objective is the things you gotta 235 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,519 do what's on the map, and some of them don't 236 00:10:02,519 --> 00:10:04,000 even make sense to us, you know, like we got 237 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,200 to like one like relay towers, Like someone has to 238 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,200 turn the relay tower in the right position. Everyone has 239 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:09,720 to like check the screen to make sure it's in 240 00:10:09,759 --> 00:10:11,879 the right position, and like we just didn't understand how 241 00:10:11,879 --> 00:10:13,559 that worked it all the first time, and then next 242 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:14,879 time we're like, Okay, we have a bit more time here. 243 00:10:14,919 --> 00:10:16,120 We have still have a bunch of time on the clock. 244 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:17,799 Let's spend some more trying to figure it out. And 245 00:10:17,879 --> 00:10:19,120 then that was kind of the same thing when we 246 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:20,440 went to the Zelo zone too, and it was like, 247 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,919 we're gonna blow up these ships, but we don't really 248 00:10:22,919 --> 00:10:25,080 know exactly what our air strikes are doing what. And 249 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,559 then we had to like call in that mini nuke 250 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,799 on that one, like you know whatever it was the monolith, 251 00:10:30,799 --> 00:10:32,159 I guess, and we had no idea what was going 252 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:33,919 on there. Wasted a lot of time and so I 253 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:35,399 feel like that's the fun part too. It is almost 254 00:10:35,399 --> 00:10:37,559 like puzzle solving, which I'm sure as we play those 255 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,440 maps over and over and see those objectives again, Okay, 256 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,120 we have like a game plime, we know exactly what 257 00:10:41,159 --> 00:10:42,879 to do, we can be a lot more efficient with it. 258 00:10:42,919 --> 00:10:46,240 But even just kind of scrambling through these situations feel 259 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,159 super epic and like they do a great job like 260 00:10:48,159 --> 00:10:50,240 any almost all the final bats we've done so far, 261 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:51,799 like when you're waiting for the ship to come down, 262 00:10:52,279 --> 00:10:54,519 it's intense, like you know, they're laying carver bombs on 263 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,759 enemies coming from all angles. There was only I feel 264 00:10:56,799 --> 00:11:00,000 like one where we just like totally dominated, you know, 265 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,200 couple of napalms on the right spots, a couple turrets 266 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,240 and like they were not get anywhere near us. But 267 00:11:04,279 --> 00:11:07,559 I feel like the intensity is i don't know, pretty constant, 268 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,960 ever present, especially with the ending. So yeah, it feels 269 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,200 like every battle it feels like like a movie action 270 00:11:13,279 --> 00:11:14,679 set piece, Like I feel like they do a good 271 00:11:14,759 --> 00:11:15,840 job of that kind of thing. 272 00:11:16,279 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 2: It does there. And there are two sequences actually, like 273 00:11:19,159 --> 00:11:22,840 the one we're against the Terminids, we were trying to 274 00:11:22,879 --> 00:11:25,799 get out of there and do the objective and we're 275 00:11:25,799 --> 00:11:28,559 playing with Kirkland and Tyler in both these different situations, 276 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:32,559 and so we were out of respawns redeployments and it 277 00:11:32,639 --> 00:11:34,720 was just when you get down to zero redeployments, it 278 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:36,840 just goes on a two minute timer and then so 279 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:38,240 you can just wait the two minutes. Then you can 280 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,279 get someone back. Wait two minutes, get someone back. So 281 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,240 you just got to keep waiting for that. And so, uh, 282 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,639 we were basically just switching off. One person would respond 283 00:11:46,639 --> 00:11:48,279 another and then he would get killed and the next 284 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,879 person would have last. And just it came to me 285 00:11:51,399 --> 00:11:54,080 and I dropped these I can't know what it's called, 286 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,440 but it's one of the stratagems where it's like a 287 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,519 mounted HCM gun that you can jump on and like 288 00:11:58,639 --> 00:12:02,440 start firing and has been working great. I hop on 289 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,120 it and everyone's like, run, run, what are you doing? Run, run, 290 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:09,799 And I'm like stop talking. I ended up getting killed 291 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,000 because I jumped off of it. But with that and 292 00:12:12,039 --> 00:12:15,360 again it's all it's cinematic and intense. And there is 293 00:12:15,399 --> 00:12:19,159 another We're on a harder difficulty in the city against 294 00:12:19,159 --> 00:12:24,120 the Illuminant and we got absolutely crushed. Like there's just 295 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:25,799 a scene there's like three of these War of the 296 00:12:25,799 --> 00:12:31,080 World's machines moving towards us. It's absolute pandomania, like crazy, 297 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:37,279 and then we very brutally got through it. But then 298 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,639 the next time we went in because at this stage 299 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,440 you can do in a region three missions in a region, 300 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,120 and then when you complete those three missions, it goes 301 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,399 up to five stars now and then you can get 302 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,960 like a whole bunch of war bonds. It's the currency, 303 00:12:49,039 --> 00:12:51,600 so get a lot of good stuff. But the second 304 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,639 one that we started up, I was like, okay, let's 305 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,639 let's reevaluate this because uh, Kirkland and Tyler they already 306 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,200 they had their some stuff unlocked. They already higher level 307 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:05,200 and whatnot. So we picked different things for our stratagems 308 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,080 that would work. So I went heavy on. I did 309 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,799 a shield generator, a bunch of century turrets, and then 310 00:13:10,879 --> 00:13:15,039 like Travis and Tyler popped on like ornable bombardment things, 311 00:13:15,159 --> 00:13:17,960 and then like another shield generator. And then we found 312 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,240 that if we're having to hold those positions, we're popping 313 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,679 a shield generator down because those stray frunds, it will 314 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,919 block them for the most part. And then we're just 315 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,559 coordinating and working. Okay, we're popping sentries here, and we're 316 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,000 able to work better instead of us kind of overlapping 317 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,120 our stratagems. And then it becomes kind of redundant, right. 318 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 1: I guess when you're low level, well, I guess even 319 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,320 once you just get start getting coined, you can kind 320 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,399 of pick the things you want unlock. But yeah, I'm 321 00:13:42,399 --> 00:13:43,759 excited for that part of it too, because I feel 322 00:13:43,759 --> 00:13:45,240 like when Media and Travis were playing, you guys had 323 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,120 played a little bit more than me, but still a 324 00:13:47,159 --> 00:13:48,960 little bit green in that sense and having locked a 325 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,679 ton of stuff and so kind of felt like we 326 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,799 all had the same role. But I think that's kind 327 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:54,840 of an exciting thought that like, oh, yeah, like I 328 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,320 could be more of a support this game, or that's right, 329 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:58,919 it could be more of the resupply kind of guy, 330 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,759 or you could be the heavy you know, probably get 331 00:14:00,759 --> 00:14:02,120 one guy who can like spawn a car if we 332 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:03,559 need to get across the map, that kind of thing. 333 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,879 I don't know how that corresponding thing works, but something 334 00:14:05,919 --> 00:14:06,240 like that. 335 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,799 Speaker 2: The car driving the car driving through me for a 336 00:14:09,799 --> 00:14:14,200 loof because you so you're in it, and then you've 337 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:19,679 got reverse neutral drive, and then you've got like first gear, 338 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,720 second gear, and you hit your trigger or your bumpers 339 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,720 to switch between the gears and then you trigger. 340 00:14:26,519 --> 00:14:28,399 Speaker 1: You have to play in that way. 341 00:14:28,759 --> 00:14:31,759 Speaker 2: Yes, And I I was driving and we took a 342 00:14:31,759 --> 00:14:35,639 wrong turn down into the termined hive nest area and 343 00:14:35,759 --> 00:14:37,720 the vehicle started to roll. So the guy that was 344 00:14:37,799 --> 00:14:40,120 in the gunner Slot got crushed as it rolled and 345 00:14:40,159 --> 00:14:43,399 he died. It's just it's it's so easy to get 346 00:14:43,519 --> 00:14:46,440 killed as you know, you know, by teammates in this game. 347 00:14:46,879 --> 00:14:49,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I love that idea obviously. That's kind of 348 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,600 like a big part of the theme and the super 349 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,960 Troopers ness of it is that like, oh yeah, these 350 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,879 lives are disposable, like whatever corporation, patriotic government, whatever it is. 351 00:14:57,919 --> 00:15:00,919 That's like, you know, running this like nothing. I think 352 00:15:00,919 --> 00:15:03,600 that's even ever present in like the tutorial. You're doing 353 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,840 the tutorial, you're like in the boot camp learning how 354 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,200 to like do the controls, and like when the characters 355 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,799 die there, it's like, oh yeah, that person literally did die, 356 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,559 and it's not you respawning. It's like another person is 357 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,679 dropping in that position. This is the fucking boot camp 358 00:15:16,039 --> 00:15:17,960 and they're just thrown away lives for the boot camp, 359 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,960 not even against like actual enemies that are harming the nation. 360 00:15:21,159 --> 00:15:23,519 Is like a crazy thought, but I feel like that's 361 00:15:23,519 --> 00:15:25,799 such a fun part of it. It makes it feel 362 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,039 very intense. And yeah, I'm sure as you get the 363 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:29,879 higher difficulties I guess you're talking about with the more 364 00:15:29,919 --> 00:15:33,679 limited respawn of it, all that also adds to me 365 00:15:33,759 --> 00:15:35,720 like a great comedy to it, the amount of times 366 00:15:36,039 --> 00:15:39,039 that like me or you or Travis accidentally just headshot 367 00:15:39,039 --> 00:15:40,919 each other or shot each other's or walk in front 368 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,240 and man, like you can kill someone super quick. You know, 369 00:15:43,279 --> 00:15:45,399 it feels like the friendly fire is dialed up to 370 00:15:45,399 --> 00:15:47,919 like times too damage or something like that. Or the 371 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:49,759 one time we had to defend this area put up 372 00:15:49,759 --> 00:15:51,519 a flag or something and you were like, I'm gonna 373 00:15:51,519 --> 00:15:53,600 try out this like landmine thing I've ever tried before, 374 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,080 only to learn that it just like carpeted the whole 375 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,960 area and killed all of us, And like that stuff 376 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:00,720 is great, and you know, if it were if it 377 00:16:00,759 --> 00:16:02,759 failed as a mission, we'd probably get pissed and then 378 00:16:02,799 --> 00:16:04,720 just you know, laugh about it a minute later. But 379 00:16:04,799 --> 00:16:06,240 I think even that part of it that it's like 380 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,559 you can almost accidentally kill your teammates all the time, 381 00:16:08,559 --> 00:16:09,799 and the fact that you happen to you when you 382 00:16:09,879 --> 00:16:11,399 were driving that car and it just flipped in the 383 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,279 way you didn't expect is is great because once again 384 00:16:14,279 --> 00:16:16,360 it ties in thematically. But also it's like just a 385 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,279 very funny thing for a game like this to have, 386 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,120 you know, I can't think of another game, like I 387 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,919 don't know, you know, Gears of War, you know Fire whatever, 388 00:16:23,919 --> 00:16:26,480 what's the Horde mode or like, you know, Halo Fire 389 00:16:26,519 --> 00:16:27,960 if I any of these kind of modes that are 390 00:16:28,039 --> 00:16:30,759 similar to a helldiver's gameplay, like that's not really built 391 00:16:30,759 --> 00:16:32,480 into the gameplay, is like, oh yeah, what is killing 392 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,879 your teammates like? But this feels like very integrated into 393 00:16:34,919 --> 00:16:37,120 the story and the gameplay in a way that feels 394 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,399 very fresh and also adds like that good layer of comedy, 395 00:16:40,399 --> 00:16:42,720 because obviously there's a lot of funny dialogue written in 396 00:16:42,759 --> 00:16:44,039 this game. But I think it's hard for games to 397 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,440 just be funny in their gameplay when that's why, you know, 398 00:16:46,519 --> 00:16:48,639 Splunky's one of my favorite games. Is like you'll die 399 00:16:48,679 --> 00:16:50,759 the most tragic death, but it's so funny that you 400 00:16:50,799 --> 00:16:52,120 just kind of laugh at off and you're not even 401 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,759 mad anymore, just because of the absurdity of the situation. 402 00:16:55,039 --> 00:16:56,879 So I don't I think this game kind of really 403 00:16:57,039 --> 00:16:59,200 succeeds at that angle of it. I'm sure just the 404 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,399 more you know, complicated weapons and cars and stratagems, you 405 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,839 get even just the crazier that can get the amount 406 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,920 of times we just kind of had to learn the 407 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,640 range of napalm by killing each other a few times. 408 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,559 It's like, I don't know, a really fun part of 409 00:17:11,559 --> 00:17:15,039 the game that has I mentioned like super unique. I 410 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:15,400 like it. 411 00:17:15,839 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 2: Oh absolutely. There's another moment where it was in the 412 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,880 city against the Illuminate and there was where a shuttle 413 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:23,920 was going to drop and pick us up. It was 414 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,680 like a lower staircase area, but it was like one 415 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,680 way access. It was just it was below street level 416 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:35,279 and like, okay, who's gonna go down there, Who's gonna 417 00:17:35,279 --> 00:17:37,000 activate the beacon and get the drop shit coming down? 418 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,160 And Trays is like, okay, I'll go, I'll go. As 419 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,440 soon as you went down, Tyler threw a nuke marker 420 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,640 down there. I was like, oh god, so the nukes 421 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,039 coming down. I threw a shield generator down there just 422 00:17:48,079 --> 00:17:50,279 in time for it. But you know, it's just those 423 00:17:50,279 --> 00:17:52,960 moments like, yeah, you freak out because it's like you 424 00:17:53,039 --> 00:17:55,920 told me it was clear and the nukes coming down, 425 00:17:56,039 --> 00:17:59,200 so lots of good stuff. Yeah, That's always something I 426 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,920 remember when hearing people first talk about this game, or 427 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,880 you know, Kirkland picked it up around launch and was 428 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,599 talking about on side Quest, the stratage and system is great, right, 429 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,079 like the fact that you in the middle of this 430 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,200 fray intense battle where like reload times you would be 431 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,359 really precise about because if you reload before your clip's empty, 432 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,039 you're gonna lose some AMMO and like amially, you don't 433 00:18:16,039 --> 00:18:18,039 actually have a ton of it, Like you know, every 434 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:19,960 second kind of counts when you're you know, in the 435 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,279 middle of a battle and the stratagems. The fact that 436 00:18:22,279 --> 00:18:24,799 you feel like punch in like a video game cheet 437 00:18:24,839 --> 00:18:27,119 code essentially in the middle of a battle is great. 438 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,640 And especially when we were in that kind of zelot 439 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,839 you know, zombie area and oh yeah, like these enemies 440 00:18:33,079 --> 00:18:35,559 like will scramble your number or your dial, so you 441 00:18:35,599 --> 00:18:37,319 can't even just like muscle memory it.

You don't know 448 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,680 where enemies are gonna come from, which enemies are gonna 449 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,640 be facing, where these carpet bombs are coming, all that 450 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,160 sort of stuff, very unpredictable, and I'm sure you know, 451 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:56,559 as you get deeper in the game you kind of 452 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:57,799 start to pick up on the patterns. 453 00:18:57,799 --> 00:18:59,519 Speaker 1: But for me, it all just feels like a frantic war. 454 00:18:59,559 --> 00:19:02,079 And even outside of like the physical things you're having 455 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:03,920 to shoot and battle, just like the things that are 456 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,759 happening in the background. You've looked at the sky at 457 00:19:05,759 --> 00:19:09,839 any point, ships flying around, explosions happening, like it's just it. Really, 458 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,440 I don't establishes this idea of not just a war zone, 459 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,759 but like, oh yeah, this entire planet is at war constantly, 460 00:19:15,799 --> 00:19:17,279 and you know, going to the world map when you're 461 00:19:17,319 --> 00:19:19,400 back at base and looking at that and seeing like, 462 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,359 oh yeah, six billion bugs were killed today by all 463 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,000 these like other hell Diverse players, is a kind of exciting, 464 00:19:25,079 --> 00:19:26,680 fun part of it. I'm excited to get more into 465 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,039 the community side of it, and I think, but I 466 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,039 kind of join the subreddit and you know, see what 467 00:19:30,039 --> 00:19:32,240 people are talking about. Feel like I can queue up 468 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,240 with some some of these randoms out here and learn 469 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,160 a thing or two. But I like that part of 470 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:36,720 the game as well. 471 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,279 Speaker 2: Mm hmm and shout outs to all the randoms that 472 00:19:39,319 --> 00:19:43,640 are higher levels. They've been so freaking friendly, like dropping 473 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,599 like max suits and some of their stuff. For like 474 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,240 my first game that I played, guy dropped a giant 475 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,720 mechsuit for me to use, and it's super nice. But yeah, 476 00:19:51,799 --> 00:19:54,480 lots of lots of people are being very, very kind 477 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,480 and friendly. And there was a guy's playing with earlier 478 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:01,079 and we did the one mission and then we're booting 479 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:02,920 up the second one and he was hosting and he 480 00:20:03,079 --> 00:20:05,240 just he turns the mic on. He drops in this 481 00:20:05,319 --> 00:20:10,160 deep voice. He's like, welcome hell divers. Prepare for the 482 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,359 next round, but I'm gonna go for a pee break quickly. 483 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:18,880 Just some good quality, wholesome moments, So I appreciate it. 484 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: That's great. Yeah, talk to me a little bit about 485 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,640 the progression unlocking stuff, just because I'm still such a 486 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,079 low level like one is you know at level like 487 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:30,880 front level one you can pick the assault rifle or 488 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,039 like the sniper thing or I think it's level maybe 489 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,839 level two you get like a pistol and like the 490 00:20:34,839 --> 00:20:38,480 basic grenade. Because I haven't seen anywhere like where you 491 00:20:38,519 --> 00:20:39,920 unlock that stuff. Is that just like when you hit 492 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,599 level seven you get a new one or are you 493 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,960 not changing those out? Are those just like the basic 494 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:46,960 default ones? And then you're unlocking other stuff. 495 00:20:47,559 --> 00:20:50,279 Speaker 2: So under your acquisition's tab. And with this, when you're 496 00:20:50,319 --> 00:20:54,440 in your Destroyer, you got like three areas you can access. Primarily, 497 00:20:54,519 --> 00:20:58,119 you got your upgrades to your Destroyer, which progression is 498 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:03,920 new strategems, permanent ability like increases like oh one second 499 00:21:04,079 --> 00:21:08,640 decrease for your refresh rate on your strategy and reload 500 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:12,599 whatever in game. And then you've got what was the 501 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:19,079 other one, cosmetic customizations, Yeah, vehicles, cosmetic customizations and whatnot. 502 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,039 And you got the armory, which is like you highlighted 503 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:25,400 picking your guns, changing your load outs, changing your gear, 504 00:21:25,559 --> 00:21:27,680 arm or everything like that. So when you're picking your 505 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,440 guns and unlocking new guns, those guns come from the 506 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:34,559 acquisitions where you access. They have the primary war Bond 507 00:21:34,599 --> 00:21:37,160 that you can get into right now, that's free for everyone. 508 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,160 So you go into that one and it's got like 509 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,839 a battle pass right exactly. It's got a whole bunch 510 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,880 of pages, and you do the missions and you get 511 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,160 the war bond currency and you can use those to 512 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,599 buy things like new guns, and then you use those 513 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:52,119 new guns and there you go, I've almost finished my 514 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,440 Halo DST one. I stopped working on it just so 515 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,440 I could start getting more of the other stuff because 516 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,279 there are the boosters I wanted to get to help 517 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:04,839 the whole team as a whole. But the gun customization 518 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:06,519 is pretty neat, and that didn't come right away. That 519 00:22:06,519 --> 00:22:09,759 came a little bit later. So you basically you're using 520 00:22:09,839 --> 00:22:14,000 this your whatever weapon you're utilizing, and then you level 521 00:22:14,039 --> 00:22:16,279 it up max levels twenty five and then you'll see 522 00:22:16,319 --> 00:22:19,119 you have all these different attachments you can actually do 523 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,119 just like Call of Duty basically where you can edit 524 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,480 your gun, build a load out, make it better and 525 00:22:24,519 --> 00:22:26,319 all do all these different things, which is very neat. 526 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:30,279 But your primary secondary and that's its own leveling system, 527 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,759 which is different from the actual level of your character. 528 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,119 The only thing the leveling of your character does is 529 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,680 just unlock new stratagems essentially. 530 00:22:38,799 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: Okay, yeahcha. 531 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,400 Speaker 2: And then the armor. The armor has abilities too, which 532 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,400 is nice. You got like super light armor and then 533 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,680 medium armor and then heavy armor, and obviously like it 534 00:22:48,839 --> 00:22:51,480 stacks or it varies because oh you can be quicker 535 00:22:51,519 --> 00:22:56,759 here but less overall exactly, and then vice versa on 536 00:22:56,759 --> 00:22:57,359 the other side. 537 00:22:58,039 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: So to get the Halo stuff. Do you need to 538 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:01,920 pay money outside of the game's cost. 539 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 2: You can if you want to unlock that war Bond 540 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,279 right away. If not, you don't have to. You can 541 00:23:07,519 --> 00:23:11,640 literally just find the super credits in game while you're playing, 542 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,680 or you can work away at the regular war Bond 543 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,079 that they have for free. And they've got like each 544 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:19,960 page is like, oh, one hundred super credits, hundred super 545 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:21,440 credits to been unlocked, so you can get it that 546 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,559 way too, and you can you can buy it without 547 00:23:23,799 --> 00:23:25,880 ever having to spend a real dollar on the game. 548 00:23:26,039 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 1: Realistically, are you going to be able to do that? 549 00:23:27,759 --> 00:23:29,519 Or is it like such an insane amount of currency 550 00:23:29,559 --> 00:23:30,279 that I think. 551 00:23:30,079 --> 00:23:33,519 Speaker 2: It's really realistic, to be honest, because like I've almost 552 00:23:33,559 --> 00:23:36,720 gotten I can't remember how much war Bond is, but 553 00:23:36,759 --> 00:23:40,200 I've gotten eight hundred just from playing it. I want 554 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:41,839 to say, they're like a thousand to get a war 555 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,759 Bond pack. So it's not that bad, okay, And yeah, 556 00:23:44,759 --> 00:23:47,480 I found it overwhelming looking at that menu, But I'm 557 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,359 guessing what's happening is like every season that the game's had, 558 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,240 they just like still have in the game. Is that why? Yes, 559 00:23:52,319 --> 00:23:53,519 they don't now? 560 00:23:53,559 --> 00:23:55,599 Speaker 1: And there's like exactly things. But obviously if you play 561 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,559 the game since the beginning, it would be like one 562 00:23:57,599 --> 00:23:59,920 of these every month or two months or however often 563 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:00,400 do it. 564 00:24:00,559 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 2: That's cool. 565 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,279 Speaker 1: And all the other ones, there's no other like IP crossover, right, 566 00:24:04,319 --> 00:24:07,000 Halo is the only one. When I was bumping around, 567 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,319 it all looked like kind of unique to the game. 568 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,880 Speaker 2: They're they're all unique. Halo's the only major one, but 569 00:24:13,079 --> 00:24:16,200 some of them look very you know, they're on that line. 570 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,319 There's one that looks like Dune, inspired by Dune for sure. 571 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,920 Other ones even look like Warhammer kind of inspired. So 572 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,240 there's some there's some that have that inspiration. 573 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 1: That's cool. Yeah, I'm excited to get more into that 574 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:33,880 customization side of things. Yeah I I I really enjoy 575 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:35,079 the game. I have a lot of fun with it 576 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:36,680 so far. But yeah, I still feel like I've barely 577 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:41,240 even scratched the surface of any other fun anecdotes or 578 00:24:41,319 --> 00:24:43,000 things you want to share about this game. Of those 579 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:43,839 point in time. 580 00:24:44,279 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 2: M what else is there? It's just a whole bunch 581 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,720 of really awesome moments. There's so many times where I 582 00:24:53,839 --> 00:24:56,759 just oh, I'm gonna do capture that last thirty second 583 00:24:56,799 --> 00:25:00,039 moment because it's just it's awesome. There was a mo 584 00:25:00,039 --> 00:25:04,119 where everyone was dead, and so I threw a beacon down, 585 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,559 got Tyler back in. But I was just running out 586 00:25:06,559 --> 00:25:08,279 of the city. I was running away from the objective. 587 00:25:08,759 --> 00:25:11,160 Tyler drops in right in front of him, like run. 588 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,880 So he's running with me. Turned to look at my backside, 589 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,960 and it's just like army of Terminid's just following us, 590 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,039 like the two massive I can't remember what the different 591 00:25:22,079 --> 00:25:24,000 terminated species are called, but it was two of the 592 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,640 really really big ones on four legs. And yeah, it's 593 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,680 just crazy. But I found a great counter for those things. 594 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:36,720 I've got a new Century and it's it's got like 595 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:43,200 the fifty, the fifty, the big huge like shell casings 596 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:44,839 that it just shoots out of it and it's just 597 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,240 like it's a long range like our heavy artillery Century 598 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:54,400 and this thing, it's like this thing just slams. Oh. 599 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,200 And it's so satisfying just to see it on a 600 00:25:57,279 --> 00:25:58,920 distance where you see one of those things far away 601 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,480 and it's just like this hard tillery just boom boom. 602 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 1: Nice. 603 00:26:02,279 --> 00:26:03,839 Speaker 2: It's it's nice. It's nice. 604 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,839 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, one one last question for you. Then the 605 00:26:07,839 --> 00:26:12,920 there's a timer. Uh every mission, some missions, every mission, okay, 606 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,799 in the later difficulties, has that ever been like a 607 00:26:15,839 --> 00:26:17,920 stressful thing for you, like, oh shit, we're actually running 608 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:19,079 out of time to do this stuff, we have to 609 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,039 drop an objective or has it kind of just like 610 00:26:21,519 --> 00:26:23,240 is it a soft thing that makes you keep kind 611 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,359 of pushing through but it never actually really pressures you. 612 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 2: I've I've only had it become a problem once so 613 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:34,119 far with with Travis Tyler and Kirkland when we're playing. 614 00:26:34,559 --> 00:26:37,559 Other than that, usually we complete the mission well in 615 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,839 advance of it and whatnot, and it doesn't it doesn't 616 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:42,920 mean that oh you're hooped, like the game is over 617 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,839 at that point. But things get very very difficult if 618 00:26:45,839 --> 00:26:49,000 the timer runs out. You can't use your strategems, you 619 00:26:49,039 --> 00:26:51,880 can't redeploy people anymore, you can't call in your abilities, 620 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:53,359 but you can still call in the drop ship if 621 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,839 you complete the mission, so you can still do it, but. 622 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,559 Speaker 1: Really like you, they stop giving you support other than 623 00:26:58,759 --> 00:26:59,519 literally the either. 624 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. Their excuse is your warship can't stay in little 625 00:27:02,799 --> 00:27:05,039 orbit for a long prolonged period of time, so it 626 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:09,720 has to take Yeah exactly. 627 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,559 Speaker 1: Yeah cool. Yeah, i I'm very excited to play more 628 00:27:12,599 --> 00:27:14,599 of this game, and I'm sure we'll hear many updates, 629 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,960 many updates throughout the next few weeks on this anything 630 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,200 any other games you've can playing that you want to share, 631 00:27:21,319 --> 00:27:23,039 or is it really just all been hell Divers for you? 632 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really just been Hell Divers feet first all 633 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,200 all week. Really cool. 634 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's take a quick break then and we will 635 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:40,759 be right back. All right, we are back, Taylor. Do 636 00:27:40,799 --> 00:27:43,200 you remember Rogue Prince of Persia? Does that ring a bell? 637 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:44,039 Do you remember this game? 638 00:27:44,319 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 2: Is that the GameCube one that came out ages ago? 639 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,119 Or am I thinking of like Warrior Within? Yeah? 640 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,920 Speaker 1: You're you're way off base, and that's totally okay. So 641 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,960 I just to scroll back time, you know, the Stands 642 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,640 of Time a little bit here. Yeah, there was Warrior Within, 643 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,039 there was you know, Sands of Time, all these games, 644 00:28:02,079 --> 00:28:04,480 but this is not that. So yeah, Prince of Persia, 645 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:06,039 you know, I feel like a few it's a dormant 646 00:28:06,079 --> 00:28:08,400 It was dormant for many years and then they announced 647 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,400 like the they're doing a remake of Sands of Time 648 00:28:10,519 --> 00:28:14,680 that's been getting delayed and canceled and re ignited and 649 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,279 delayed again. I don't even know if that game is 650 00:28:16,279 --> 00:28:18,960 still happening to this point. But then somewhere after that, 651 00:28:19,519 --> 00:28:22,000 they announced two Prince of Persia games, to two D 652 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,480 Prince of Persia games from separate teams kind of a 653 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,359 few months apart, which was kind of a weird idea. 654 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,480 But the first one was Prince of Persia the Lost Crown, 655 00:28:29,519 --> 00:28:31,680 which was like the Rogue, not the Rogue like that 656 00:28:31,759 --> 00:28:34,519 the Metroid Vania game. That one came out last year 657 00:28:34,519 --> 00:28:36,880 and then got a DLC. People seem to really like that. 658 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,640 I played a little bit of it on Ubisoft Plus 659 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,279 enjoyed it a little bit, but I'm very picky when 660 00:28:42,319 --> 00:28:44,079 it comes to Metroidvania, as I need to really be 661 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,440 in them, really really involved, like into the theme or 662 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:51,079 into the opening hours to stick with them. And then 663 00:28:51,119 --> 00:28:53,160 the other one that they announced a little bit afterwards 664 00:28:53,359 --> 00:28:55,880 was Rogue Prince of Persia, which is a rogue like 665 00:28:56,079 --> 00:28:58,680 Prince of Persia game, so a two D kind of 666 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,200 going back to that very og style Prince of Persia. 667 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,759 And this game actually came out last year, I think 668 00:29:03,759 --> 00:29:07,440 in November December in early access on Steam, and then 669 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,720 it's been just getting updates, updates and updates, and finally 670 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,480 here in August twenty twenty five is when at one 671 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,279 point one point zero. Along with that it's on game Pass, 672 00:29:15,359 --> 00:29:17,799 it's also on PS Plus and therefore I also assume 673 00:29:17,839 --> 00:29:21,640 it's on Ubisoft Plus. So it's freaking everywhere. It's like you, 674 00:29:21,839 --> 00:29:24,359 it's very easy for almost anyone to have access to 675 00:29:24,359 --> 00:29:26,559 this game. I don't know if it's on Switch or 676 00:29:26,599 --> 00:29:28,440 switch to, but it you know, wouldn't be on a 677 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,519 streaming service there or anything like that, but a very 678 00:29:31,559 --> 00:29:34,559 easy game to get your hands on, which is to me, 679 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,119 seems like an interesting strategy. Like I don't know, maybe 680 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,200 they got some good deals from game Pass and PS Plus, 681 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,079 but like they're not an exclusive with them, so I 682 00:29:41,079 --> 00:29:42,599 don't know how good of a deal they would get. 683 00:29:42,759 --> 00:29:44,759 So I just don't know where the money's coming from 684 00:29:44,799 --> 00:29:46,759 for this game. It feels like they're just putting it 685 00:29:46,759 --> 00:29:49,759 out there, but I hope it finds its audience in 686 00:29:49,799 --> 00:29:52,039 some way, shape or form. But overall, I think it's 687 00:29:52,039 --> 00:29:55,000 just really cool that for Prince of Persia lost crown 688 00:29:55,039 --> 00:29:57,920 and for Rogue Prince of Persia that Ubisolf is just 689 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:02,480 like giving this ip out to smaller or even bigger 690 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,119 indie teams to let them have a swing at Prince 691 00:30:05,119 --> 00:30:07,480 of Persia and like keep this ip alive for what 692 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,039 is going to be a smaller budget for sure, but 693 00:30:10,079 --> 00:30:11,599 it is also the kind of a fresh take on 694 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,599 the series, obviously, with first being Metroidvania, this one being 695 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,279 a roguelike. This one's also very Metroidvania coded, which makes 696 00:30:18,319 --> 00:30:21,839 sense because it's developed by Evil Evil Empire, which is 697 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,359 a I guess a support studio or a co developer 698 00:30:24,799 --> 00:30:27,079 of Dead Cells, which is a roguelike game that is 699 00:30:27,119 --> 00:30:30,839 a very Metroidvania sort of style, and so obviously pretty 700 00:30:30,839 --> 00:30:35,000 good pedige there, Like they worked on the Dead Cells Castlevania, 701 00:30:35,079 --> 00:30:38,519 DLC supports team on Dead Cells to some extense. Really 702 00:30:38,559 --> 00:30:40,240 here to know how much of the development they did, 703 00:30:40,359 --> 00:30:42,000 but in this case, I think this is their first 704 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:43,920 time kind of making a game all on their own, 705 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:45,680 or at least like this, this team under the name 706 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,480 of Evil Empire. So yeah, all that context to say 707 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,480 that this is kind of an interesting thing. I think 708 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,359 it's pretty cool that Ubisoft is doing this. I just 709 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,480 don't know how much like the fact that you know 710 00:30:54,519 --> 00:30:56,680 you're in UBISAF if you you know, like Prince of 711 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,960 Persia enough, I guess whatever you didn't even know what 712 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:00,920 this game is obviously not good sign for it's like 713 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,279 marketing and getting out there. It was at a summer 714 00:31:03,319 --> 00:31:05,319 game fest, maybe it was at a game boards I forget, 715 00:31:05,519 --> 00:31:07,680 but like, obviously between this Lost Crown, it's easy to 716 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,400 get confused and like forget about this game's existence. But 717 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,319 even then you're a game Pass subscriber and like, you know, 718 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:15,839 didn't even see this game hit the service, right, So 719 00:31:15,839 --> 00:31:17,200 it's kind of weird, Like I just feel like they 720 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:18,960 haven't been doing a great job of selling it and 721 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,119 I didn't even know it was launching one point. Oh Now, 722 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,440 I was just on PS plus, you know, playing sort 723 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,880 of the c with Kirkland there and saw it on 724 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:27,680 there was like, oh sweet, I'll check this out. Why 725 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,359 not it's a you know, a new game on on 726 00:31:29,519 --> 00:31:31,640 PS plus And so that's the only reason I knew 727 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:32,960 it came out. And I haven't you know, any of 728 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,599 the podcasts listen to dagain website time on, I'm not 729 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,880 really seeing anyone talk about this game. So I just 730 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:39,160 I just don't know if they got if they did 731 00:31:39,279 --> 00:31:41,440 put their best foot forward and getting the word out there. 732 00:31:42,079 --> 00:31:44,279 And I also think whenever you do an early access launch, 733 00:31:44,319 --> 00:31:45,839 it's pretty easy for the game to kind of get 734 00:31:45,839 --> 00:31:48,200 lost in the shuffle of like, oh, it's early access, 735 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:49,519 I'll come back and check out the game when it's 736 00:31:49,519 --> 00:31:51,160 one point oh. But then if you don't super advertise 737 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,599 that it's going one point oh, people don't really look 738 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:55,839 to do that information. And then like neither of the 739 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,640 launches really hit and the game just you know, falls 740 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,559 to the bottom. So all that context to say that 741 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,039 this game is freaking great. I am loving it. I'm 742 00:32:04,079 --> 00:32:06,000 having a great time with it. I'm playing it As 743 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:07,759 some of roguelikes, I like to do this where I 744 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,880 just do one run a day, kind of the way 745 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:11,960 you're playing all divers doing some drops every night. For me, 746 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:13,240 it's like I want to do one run of this 747 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,200 game a day. If I die super early, that's fine. 748 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:16,480 That was my run for the day. I'll come back 749 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,079 the next day, try another one here. And yeah, it 750 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,279 is a roguelike. When it comes to rogulikes, just like 751 00:32:21,279 --> 00:32:25,039 Metrodvanas these days, I'm extremely picky. It is pretty rare 752 00:32:25,039 --> 00:32:27,279 for me to get super invested in a roguelike, and 753 00:32:27,319 --> 00:32:29,359 I didn't expect to be with this one because I 754 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,359 don't really like Dead cells, and it's maybe a bit 755 00:32:31,359 --> 00:32:33,519 of a hot take for roguelike fans. I just don't 756 00:32:33,519 --> 00:32:35,640 think the game feels very great. I don't like the 757 00:32:35,759 --> 00:32:38,960 locomotion of it. I didn't love the Metroidvania design. But 758 00:32:39,039 --> 00:32:41,200 to me, I feel like this is such a big 759 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,400 improvement over that in terms of the movement, in terms 760 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,839 of the simplicity of the maps, is a bit easier 761 00:32:45,839 --> 00:32:47,720 for me to follow with, and then like the roguelike 762 00:32:47,759 --> 00:32:51,160 elements of it come across in a pretty straightforward way. 763 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,200 So I am, yeah, really really enjoying it. And like 764 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,119 I'm saying that, I'm pretty harsh critical when it comes 765 00:32:56,119 --> 00:32:58,640 to roguelikes these days, and I'm pretty easy to just like, ah, 766 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,319 I don't want to, you know, put the mass straight 767 00:33:00,319 --> 00:33:02,440 into this. But I think the tell will be how 768 00:33:02,519 --> 00:33:04,799 much do I play this game after I've beat it 769 00:33:04,799 --> 00:33:06,119 for the first time? And I actually think I just 770 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,359 did that, like a couple hours ago, finally beat my 771 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,160 first run. But I can't really tell story wise, Like 772 00:33:11,279 --> 00:33:12,839 it seems like they're setting it up that I didn't 773 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,839 actually beat the Lost Bell, so I'm guessing there's like 774 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,240 more to do afterwards, or more things that have unlocked, 775 00:33:17,519 --> 00:33:19,240 so we'll see what happens there and how much I 776 00:33:19,279 --> 00:33:21,240 stick with it. But at least for you know, I've 777 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,480 done like eight to nine runs now finally beat the game, 778 00:33:23,559 --> 00:33:25,279 you know, four or five hours in something like that. 779 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,200 Even if I stop now, I'd still think it would 780 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,880 be like a really great time overall. I think the 781 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:33,000 where the Prince of persianness of it comes in is 782 00:33:33,519 --> 00:33:34,960 with a lot of the movement. So obviously it has 783 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,359 like you know, there's poles everywhere that you're swinging around on, 784 00:33:37,559 --> 00:33:41,920 you're doing wall runs, you're you know, vertically climbing up walls. Obviously, 785 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:43,279 like the wall run is kind of weird in a 786 00:33:43,279 --> 00:33:44,799 two D game, But the way it works is like 787 00:33:45,079 --> 00:33:47,160 if there's literally in the background of the map, like 788 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,480 a wall behind you, oftentimes the walls are like kind 789 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,200 of broken in half, so only part of the walls 790 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,000 there there's a window in the way. But you can 791 00:33:53,079 --> 00:33:55,240 just like wall run, and you can like wall run 792 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,519 into like air dash and then if you like land 793 00:33:57,519 --> 00:33:59,680 into a into a wall, you'll start climbing that and 794 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,759 then you get all of those movement options backs. Then 795 00:34:01,759 --> 00:34:04,359 you can jump off the wall, wall run into the 796 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,240 wall again, and just like infinite climb vertically if as 797 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:09,320 long as there's a wall there, and then as you're 798 00:34:09,599 --> 00:34:12,760 you know, jumping through things, going off obstacles, combining a 799 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:14,960 wall run into a jumping off a pole, you get 800 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,239 like this passive speed boost thing, which I think is 801 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,440 really great for if you're playing the early levels of 802 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,519 the game over and over again, which is gonna happen 803 00:34:21,519 --> 00:34:23,239 in a roguelike, You're not gonna be bored out of 804 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:24,960 your skull because you're just flying through the maps. You're 805 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:26,760 getting like such big movement speed to it. So I 806 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:28,880 think they did a really good thing there. But like overall, 807 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:33,000 the game just moves super super fluidly, feels great, and 808 00:34:33,199 --> 00:34:34,920 like the air dash thing you can do, you know 809 00:34:35,039 --> 00:34:36,199 that on the ground of course, and if you do 810 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,239 it near an enemy you kind of do like the 811 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,079 Assassin's Creed style, like jump over someone's back and then 812 00:34:41,119 --> 00:34:43,159 like start saving them from behind like that kind of thing. 813 00:34:43,199 --> 00:34:45,280 Fable has that too, which I always find really fun. 814 00:34:45,519 --> 00:34:46,800 So rather than having to get like a really good 815 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:48,159 Perry time, and I can kind of just do a 816 00:34:48,159 --> 00:34:51,559 fun air dash, which as mister anti Perry, it works 817 00:34:51,599 --> 00:34:55,519 for me pretty well. And then the combat's pretty straightforward, 818 00:34:55,519 --> 00:34:58,199 you know, very hack and slashy. You know, you're doing 819 00:34:58,199 --> 00:35:01,079 those kind of dodge attacks into striking someone's back. You 820 00:35:01,119 --> 00:35:02,400 have a basic weapon, and then you have like an 821 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,559 assist weapon, which could be like a chain hook, could 822 00:35:04,599 --> 00:35:08,119 be like a bow and arrow kind of thing. And yeah, 823 00:35:08,159 --> 00:35:10,079 so that's kind of like the basic gameplay of it. 824 00:35:10,079 --> 00:35:11,880 As you're going through these maps, you might have to 825 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:13,920 do like some simple puzzle solving some of the sections. 826 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,039 There's no enemies at all, and it's just like intense 827 00:35:16,079 --> 00:35:18,679 park core challenges, which once again very fitting for the 828 00:35:18,679 --> 00:35:20,880 Prince of Persia IP, but also I feel like it's 829 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:24,199 something that's kind of rare for roguelike platformers. Usually it's 830 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,159 kind of more about the combat, and I think to 831 00:35:26,199 --> 00:35:27,960 really focus in on just like here's a fun park 832 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:31,480 core sequence and sometimes pretty challenging you gotta be super precise, 833 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:33,960 is like a really good way to mix it up there. 834 00:35:34,159 --> 00:35:35,519 So I think they've done a good job of like 835 00:35:35,639 --> 00:35:40,320 capturing what makes something Prince of Persia specifically. So yeah, 836 00:35:40,559 --> 00:35:42,840 I'm really enjoying that basic gameplay of it. In terms 837 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,840 of the roguelike stuff, like so many things to unlock 838 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:47,440 at this point, even when I beat my first run, 839 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,960 I unlocked this whole other mechanic around, like making the 840 00:35:50,039 --> 00:35:52,440 runs harder for like more rewards. So that's exciting and 841 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:56,400 excited to check out some of that. And let's see 842 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,159 what else. I think, you know, one of the things 843 00:35:58,199 --> 00:36:00,000 that's like some of the levels. Even though the movement 844 00:36:00,119 --> 00:36:02,320 is really fun, some of the earlier levels feel a 845 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,800 little bit repetitive, like obviously there's that roguelike like a 846 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:06,840 little bit of randomness, but some of them do feel 847 00:36:07,199 --> 00:36:09,159 quite a bit the same talking about Splunky again, like 848 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,519 that's the game that I'm just always amazed how no 849 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:13,639 I know how many runs I've done, Like the two 850 00:36:13,679 --> 00:36:15,960 D levels always feel like a fun new Mario level 851 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,000 that I've never seen before, whereas in this already after 852 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,039 a few runs, like okay, I feel like I've seen 853 00:36:21,039 --> 00:36:23,400 this kind of landmark a few times. I've done this movement, 854 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:25,519 and once again, it is fun to move through it still, 855 00:36:25,639 --> 00:36:27,239 but I just don't know how many, how much legs 856 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:28,960 it's gonna have, how much it's going to carry me 857 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:32,840 through that whole experience. And then I think, lastly, the 858 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:35,480 thing I wanted to shout out about it is you guys, 859 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:36,679 You're going through this, your goal is to just like 860 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,639 survive to the very end, beat the fun boss. Sure, 861 00:36:38,679 --> 00:36:41,039 but there's also all sorts of bonus objectives of like 862 00:36:41,199 --> 00:36:43,559 you gotta free your brother who's been captured. You gotta 863 00:36:43,599 --> 00:36:45,119 go to this lady, and you gotta lever and then 864 00:36:45,159 --> 00:36:47,000 go to this particular part of the world and then 865 00:36:47,039 --> 00:36:48,719 put the lever in there and that shoots the water 866 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:50,559 down and that, like you know, all these kind of things, 867 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:54,719 and in some roubles that can be really overwhelming. Speaking 868 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,239 of Splunk again, very obscure. All of the things you 869 00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:58,719 got to pair together, so I have to like write 870 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,360 things down on a piece of paper, notepad, on my phone, 871 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:03,119 whatever it is. In this game, they do a really 872 00:37:03,159 --> 00:37:04,840 good job of like when you're looking at the world 873 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:06,480 map of like all the levels you could go to, 874 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:08,400 you can just like hoff over it and just tell you, like, 875 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,519 these are the three or four objectives you have here. 876 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,760 And then there's like a mining map they call it, 877 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,119 which is kind of like an Outer Wild's thing for 878 00:37:15,159 --> 00:37:17,000 people who played that game, but it's actually like a 879 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,199 giant bulletin board that has like here's this piece of 880 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:21,760 information how to free your brother, and it's like Okay, 881 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:23,320 this part of the map will be relevant for that 882 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,280 you need this item, and so kind of like you know, 883 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,000 you know, the put the string on the map, connect 884 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,559 the red lines of the red markers if you're trying to, 885 00:37:30,679 --> 00:37:32,519 you know, find a case if you're an investigator. It's 886 00:37:32,559 --> 00:37:34,280 kind of like that where it pieces a lot of 887 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,400 this information together in a pretty visually satisfying way that 888 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,119 helps you keep track of all the threads that are 889 00:37:39,119 --> 00:37:40,880 going on. I'm not gonna lie, I'm skipping a lot 890 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,000 of dialog in this game, and so that helps me 891 00:37:43,039 --> 00:37:44,840 as well to kind of keep track of everything there. 892 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:46,800 So yeah, I'm having a great time with this game. 893 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:48,760 I'm gonna keep playing it. I don't know how much 894 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,039 more I'll keep playing it after I've kind of seen 895 00:37:51,119 --> 00:37:52,800 most of this story stuff or beat what I feel 896 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,239 like is kind of the main objective of the game. 897 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,119 But that's pretty typical for me most roguel like It's 898 00:37:57,119 --> 00:37:58,440 hard for me to stick around after I've beat the 899 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,039 game once or twice. I'm usually moving out of the 900 00:38:00,079 --> 00:38:02,400 next thing. But there are the odd roguel likes that 901 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,199 I just can't put down. So yeah, if anyone's looking 902 00:38:05,199 --> 00:38:07,800 for a game that sounds like, you know, a nice 903 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:10,400 new two D rogue, like really good movement, decent combat, 904 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,480 decent variety. I think this one's a really great fit. 905 00:38:13,519 --> 00:38:15,119 I think if you're a Dead Souls fan, you'll probably 906 00:38:15,119 --> 00:38:17,280 really like this. Because I'm not even a Dead Souls fan. 907 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:19,039 I really like what they've done here as kind of 908 00:38:19,039 --> 00:38:22,880 evolving in that formula. So yeah, I definitely highly recommend 909 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:24,800 this game Taylor as well. Once again, it's on game Pass, 910 00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,000 so if you're into that, don't You're not really a 911 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,039 big roguelike guy, so I don't know, feel like that 912 00:38:29,159 --> 00:38:30,679 format of it, but even just jump in for a 913 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:33,719 couple hours, feel that movement out is pretty fun. I 914 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,239 think obviously a lot of similarities between Prince of Persia 915 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,280 and Assassin's Creed, so maybe you'll like that as well, 916 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,800 because I get have you played any of those two 917 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:44,800 D Assassin's Creed games, those like spinoff ones like where yeah, 918 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:48,639 I play Freed Russia and whatever Mexico or India where Oh, 919 00:38:48,679 --> 00:38:51,639 I've got all of those ones, but I've not played them. 920 00:38:52,159 --> 00:38:54,800 They were free on Xbox Golds with my membership back 921 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:56,199 in the day, so I got them for free. But 922 00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:59,760 the ones I have played are Altari's Chronicles and Discovery. 923 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:06,280 Those were two DS ones that, yeah, side scrolling versions, 924 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:09,199 so yeah, those are good. Yeah. Yeah, So I don't know, 925 00:39:09,199 --> 00:39:11,679 this might scratch it a similar itch. It's it's pretty 926 00:39:11,679 --> 00:39:14,519 interesting there, so yeah, don't forget about this one people. 927 00:39:14,559 --> 00:39:16,880 It's a game that just came out and is probably 928 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,320 on a subscription service that you currently have, so it's 929 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:21,760 very easily accessible. I don't even know how much it 930 00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,639 is regularly, but I'm having a great time with it 931 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,079 so far. So there you go. There is Rogue, Prince 932 00:39:27,159 --> 00:39:30,760 of Prosia. Prince of Prosia, Prince of Persia. That's the one. 933 00:39:32,599 --> 00:39:37,679 All right. Shall we move on to the preview, the 934 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:39,039 Fall preview, Taylor Field. 935 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,559 Speaker 2: Let's shall all right? 936 00:39:41,679 --> 00:39:44,559 Speaker 1: So I sent you a link to the Great Gameformer 937 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,679 dot Com Slash twenty twenty five, which is where I 938 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:49,519 kind of keep up to date with all the releases 939 00:39:49,559 --> 00:39:52,000 that are happening, and we're just kind of somewhat breeze 940 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,079 through this stop on ones that are interesting. If I 941 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,199 blast past the data, game that seems interesting to you, please, 942 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,199 you know, stop me in my tracks and we'll bring 943 00:39:59,199 --> 00:40:01,239 it up. But you know, the first thing to kind 944 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:05,239 of pick off this September, and fall is of course 945 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:09,239 Hollow Night Silksong. The much anticipated indie game metro Vania 946 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,719 is finally coming out after all these years September fourth. 947 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,239 In just a short couple of days here a lot 948 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,480 of rumors circling that it seems like the price of 949 00:40:17,519 --> 00:40:20,119 this is gonna be twenty dollars a US, so like 950 00:40:20,159 --> 00:40:22,199 twenty five K, which is shocking to me. I thought 951 00:40:22,199 --> 00:40:24,119 this was gonna be like forty fifty dollars, just because 952 00:40:24,119 --> 00:40:26,360 I feel like this game has been anticipating for so long, 953 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:30,000 one of the highest acclaimed like indie games. I feel 954 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:31,800 like they could have charged a lot more, but it's 955 00:40:32,039 --> 00:40:33,679 interesting that they're still, Like I think the first game 956 00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:35,639 is like fifteen dollars, so the fact that they're only putting, 957 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,280 you know, essentially a surch charge of like five ten 958 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:40,559 dollars on it over the first one is is interesting. 959 00:40:40,559 --> 00:40:43,559 So we'll see if that price actually sticks. I will 960 00:40:43,599 --> 00:40:45,480 probably end up picking up this game, even though I 961 00:40:45,519 --> 00:40:47,639 never finished the first holl of Night, I've probably played 962 00:40:47,679 --> 00:40:49,559 the half of it and just I don't got stuck 963 00:40:49,599 --> 00:40:51,079 at some point, maybe didn't play it for a few days, 964 00:40:51,159 --> 00:40:53,199 totally lost where I was. So we'll see what kind 965 00:40:53,199 --> 00:40:54,920 of improvements the make to this sequel in terms of 966 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:56,880 if you're getting lost, if the game like helps you 967 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,519 through it in any way. But yeah, I'm excited to 968 00:40:59,599 --> 00:41:03,199 check this one out. Any any interest in a holiday 969 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:05,880 night after hearing all they claim for it over the years, Taylor. 970 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,880 Speaker 2: Oh, interest, Yes, and it would be definitely on my list. Well, 971 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:11,800 it is on my list, but I just don't know 972 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,320 at what point I would get around to trying it. 973 00:41:15,199 --> 00:41:18,119 But I mean, it's always one of those games and 974 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,440 walk around like video game store like Walmart or in 975 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:22,320 the electronic section and I see it on the shelf 976 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:23,840 and it's always catches my eye. 977 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I feel like, was it supposed to be 978 00:41:27,559 --> 00:41:30,280 on game Pass? It actually is coming to game Pass, 979 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:31,960 So forget what I said about the price. I guess 980 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:33,679 I'll be playing it. I'm not even subscribed to game 981 00:41:33,679 --> 00:41:35,039 Pass right now, so I'll figure it out either all 982 00:41:35,039 --> 00:41:38,239 subscribe to game Pass again or I will buy it 983 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:39,960 out right. I'm not sure it would be a good 984 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,280 Switch title. I think if it's on their day one, 985 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,480 which I which I do believe it is, So yeah, 986 00:41:44,519 --> 00:41:46,599 that's gonna be a big one, really, curious to see 987 00:41:46,599 --> 00:41:48,559 if that lands for people, if it's as good as 988 00:41:48,559 --> 00:41:49,960 that first one, because you know, I like the first one, 989 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:51,480 but obviously I didn't even finish it, so it's not 990 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:52,880 one of my all time favorites and the way it 991 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:56,079 is for many other other people. So yeah, I'm really 992 00:41:56,079 --> 00:41:59,679 curious to see what happens with that one. Next up. 993 00:42:00,119 --> 00:42:02,440 I guess we can shout out on September. Well, I 994 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,519 think the same days when the indie Indiana Jones DLC 995 00:42:05,639 --> 00:42:07,679 comes out, so also when I'm excited to hear what 996 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:09,760 people think about that. I enjoyed that game enough, I 997 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:11,599 think for the prices, right, I could see myself picking 998 00:42:11,639 --> 00:42:12,880 it up, but I don't think i'd be doing that 999 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,559 at launch. I'm I'm kind of busy with other games 1000 00:42:15,639 --> 00:42:17,360 right now, I think. But that's coming out same day. 1001 00:42:18,199 --> 00:42:20,119 I know you and you and Travis aren't too keen 1002 00:42:20,119 --> 00:42:21,760 on picking up that DLC. Had a good time with 1003 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:23,280 the main game, but like, don't need to play the 1004 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:25,760 DLC at least right now, because obviously that's not on 1005 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:27,679 game Pass. Got to buy that separate, right. 1006 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. I did see an article talking about 1007 00:42:30,199 --> 00:42:32,719 how they were changing the detail of the hair textures 1008 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:37,119 from triangles to circles to get the best hair visual 1009 00:42:37,159 --> 00:42:41,000 graphics of anything of all time. Just for the hair 1010 00:42:41,039 --> 00:42:42,719 and the Indiana Jones characters. 1011 00:42:43,039 --> 00:42:45,559 Speaker 1: The hair was triangles and now it's circle. 1012 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:48,039 Speaker 2: I mean, start can find what they did here, Indiana 1013 00:42:48,119 --> 00:42:49,000 Jones down here. 1014 00:42:49,119 --> 00:42:53,880 Speaker 1: I mean it's probably an extremely microscopic level, but I 1015 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:55,559 don't know. I don't even know what that means. But 1016 00:42:55,639 --> 00:42:56,840 I cool here. 1017 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,119 Speaker 2: I'm gonna share my spreen here so you can get 1018 00:42:59,159 --> 00:43:04,400 the down low. So in Navidio's RTX hair technology replaces 1019 00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:08,119 traditional triangle based hair rendering with linear swept spheres and 1020 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:12,079 Jones a great circle, getting more realistic, rounded look for 1021 00:43:12,199 --> 00:43:14,119 the hair. I don't know how well you can see that. 1022 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:16,360 So this is the old, this is the news. So 1023 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:17,760 it looks okay. 1024 00:43:17,519 --> 00:43:22,039 Speaker 1: Better, Okay, I'm gonna take your word for it. To me, 1025 00:43:22,119 --> 00:43:25,679 that looks darker, but all day your. 1026 00:43:25,559 --> 00:43:28,400 Speaker 2: Word for spheres. It's all in the spheres. 1027 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you know, I've dabbled a bit in 1028 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:32,119 game development now, but I'm not at that level where 1029 00:43:32,119 --> 00:43:34,519 I know the difference between spherical and ls. 1030 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:37,199 Speaker 2: You got to stop using those triangles. That's all it is, Okay, 1031 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:39,880 It sounds good. No more triangles, only circles. Okay, I'll 1032 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:41,079 keep that in mind when I'm trying to make a. 1033 00:43:41,119 --> 00:43:46,280 Speaker 1: Nice head of hair for a character. September fifth has 1034 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:49,239 a couple couple heavy hitters Chronos the New Dawn, which 1035 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:52,440 is the blueber Team horror game, which looks really great. 1036 00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,280 It seems to me like maybe there step up from 1037 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,480 you know, The Medium and Blair Witch. It seems like 1038 00:43:57,519 --> 00:44:00,920 maybe they're they're fin time to jump in like that 1039 00:44:01,039 --> 00:44:03,320 kind of top tier horror game. So we'll see what 1040 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:07,400 happens there. And then dmon X Macna Titanic Scion, which 1041 00:44:07,519 --> 00:44:08,960 I think people like that first game, so they're getting 1042 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,199 a sequel there for Switch To It's coming to everything 1043 00:44:11,199 --> 00:44:12,920 as well, but I think that is a good sequel 1044 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:15,639 to get over there. And then even including Everybody's Golf 1045 00:44:15,679 --> 00:44:17,920 hot Shots. People love that series, and I feel like 1046 00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,079 it's been a while since they've had one of them. 1047 00:44:20,559 --> 00:44:22,800 So yeah, kind of interesting there, like a big kind 1048 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:27,159 of maybe Switch sequel, sort of game PlayStation golf game 1049 00:44:27,159 --> 00:44:28,440 that people really love, and then you know, a new 1050 00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:31,159 horror game, so interesting kind of trifecta there. We'll see 1051 00:44:31,199 --> 00:44:34,199 what kind of games are really people grabbing from that 1052 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:38,599 from that particular week, and then I know that up. 1053 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:40,159 I just want to bring this up because I think 1054 00:44:40,159 --> 00:44:42,960 it's funny that there is Garfield KRT two. All you 1055 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,639 Can Drift is a game coming out. It's September tenth, 1056 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,599 and then I think it's that same month, or maybe 1057 00:44:48,639 --> 00:44:52,159 it's the month after. We'll talk about it at some point, 1058 00:44:52,159 --> 00:44:57,440 but Sonic Crossworlds is also coming out, so another two 1059 00:44:57,519 --> 00:45:00,639 KRT racers from from Sonic and Garfield, which is kind 1060 00:45:00,639 --> 00:45:02,360 of crazy because we just had you know, Mario Kart 1061 00:45:02,639 --> 00:45:04,679 World of course, so obviously a lot of a lot 1062 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:07,679 of cart racers coming out this year. Surprisingly, I don't 1063 00:45:07,679 --> 00:45:09,440 know if people will be talking about Garfield much. But 1064 00:45:09,559 --> 00:45:12,000 I gotta say, the other day or at some point 1065 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:13,960 in time, I was either I was on Reddit or 1066 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,440 YouTube or something like that, and an ad popped up, 1067 00:45:17,159 --> 00:45:20,920 just like a looping gift for Sonic Crossworlds. I'm not 1068 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:22,440 gonna lie. I could not take my eyes off it. 1069 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:24,719 I thought like the gameplay looked great, like the combo 1070 00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:27,639 of movements and like jumping off things. Actually, no, I'm 1071 00:45:27,639 --> 00:45:29,480 thinking about maybe those Disney speeds for I even know 1072 00:45:29,519 --> 00:45:31,119 what game was. It was one of those two because 1073 00:45:31,119 --> 00:45:33,280 they live very similar to me, and I was like, 1074 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:34,960 I can't keep my eyes off it. This This game 1075 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,679 looks absolutely advertizing, So I do want to play that 1076 00:45:37,679 --> 00:45:38,960 at some point. I think looks fun and obviously of 1077 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,559 crossovers with all the other kind of Capcom sort of worlds, 1078 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:45,039 which is a really fun idea. So, uh yeah, interesting idea. 1079 00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:48,920 We'll see what happens. There were Sega worlds. I'm getting 1080 00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:52,119 that wrong. Capcom Sega same difference, right, something like that. Uh, 1081 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:56,639 there you go? Does that one? Taylor? Borderlands four? Where 1082 00:45:56,679 --> 00:45:58,760 are you at with Borderlands in your life? 1083 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:03,039 Speaker 2: Oh? Ever, since Borlands two, I'm just not present with 1084 00:46:03,079 --> 00:46:06,320 the others. Borlands two was just an all time high 1085 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:10,039 for me. I yeah, it's just an amazing game. Amazing game. 1086 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:14,679 And they did like Tina's Wonderland, the presequel, Borlands three, 1087 00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,519 all these other ones. I mean I played, I played 1088 00:46:16,559 --> 00:46:18,119 a bit of the presequel, I played a little bit 1089 00:46:18,119 --> 00:46:20,920 of Borderlines three. Is nothing really it was just pulling 1090 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:23,719 me in. By the time I got to Tina's Wonderland, 1091 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:25,840 I just I really was just kind of zoned out 1092 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:29,159 of it. Yeah. Yeah, I think the only ones that 1093 00:46:29,159 --> 00:46:31,239 are there really just the diehards. I don't know if 1094 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,119 there's anyone that's really like, oh, I wonder what this 1095 00:46:33,159 --> 00:46:35,639 ip is like and hopping into it at Borlands four 1096 00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:39,199 because the first two are just like that's that's where 1097 00:46:39,199 --> 00:46:41,400 it is for me. Yeah. 1098 00:46:41,559 --> 00:46:43,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I'm I'm similar to you but even 1099 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:45,480 worse where I'm like, yeah, I just played the first 1100 00:46:45,519 --> 00:46:47,480 one and like that was kind of my vibe. I 1101 00:46:47,519 --> 00:46:48,960 did play some of the second one. I did play 1102 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:50,840 some the presequel, but not you know, not games I 1103 00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:53,199 played for more than four or five hours or something. 1104 00:46:53,199 --> 00:46:55,559 But yeah, Borderlands one was just such a peak experience 1105 00:46:55,559 --> 00:46:57,960 for me that it was so good that I like 1106 00:46:58,039 --> 00:47:00,280 don't even need more. I've mentioned that before, but like 1107 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,480 there are some series like that for me where sometimes 1108 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,000 the game is gonna be so great and I don't 1109 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:06,159 ever need a sequel. Just that one is great for me. 1110 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:09,039 And I feel like, especially after hearing Borderlands three, which 1111 00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:12,039 seemed like, yeah, it was fine, believe in that game 1112 00:47:12,079 --> 00:47:13,519 is probably super cheap now, so it's like, if I 1113 00:47:13,519 --> 00:47:15,519 want to get my Borderlands on, i'd probably go to 1114 00:47:15,519 --> 00:47:18,119 Borderlands or Tiny Tinas, which I still think looks really fun, 1115 00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:20,599 and I will play those games eventually maybe, but yeah, 1116 00:47:20,599 --> 00:47:23,280 I'm definitely not keen for Borderlands four, but I think 1117 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:25,719 Jessica is, so if she's got her mic set up. 1118 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:27,599 I know she's moved recently. If she's all set up, 1119 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:29,360 I'd love to get her on side. Question here her 1120 00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:31,920 thoughts of that one's obviously she's a diehard fan, She's 1121 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:33,960 got it tattooed on her body. She's a big Borderland. 1122 00:47:34,039 --> 00:47:37,360 Her kids named after Borderland's characters in a way, So yeah, 1123 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:39,320 big big fan there. So hopefully we can get her 1124 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:42,840 on and share some of those thoughts. And then Lego Voyagers, 1125 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:44,519 that's that co op is so I don't know if 1126 00:47:44,559 --> 00:47:47,039 I mentioned this Swordlands four September twelfth, and then on 1127 00:47:47,079 --> 00:47:50,639 the fifteenth we have Lego Voyagers, which is that interesting 1128 00:47:50,679 --> 00:47:55,800 looking co op platform puzzler sort of experience for Lego. 1129 00:47:56,199 --> 00:47:58,800 I think the game looks really great. I don't know 1130 00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:01,079 if I have someone to play with, and I don't 1131 00:48:01,119 --> 00:48:02,480 think it's like one on one. I don't even know 1132 00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:03,960 if you can play it alone or if you need 1133 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,360 to play it co op, but I think it looks 1134 00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:08,679 really cool, so I definitely wanted to put on on 1135 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:11,840 the radar. The same day is A Little Witch in 1136 00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,000 the Woods, and I wanted to bring this one up 1137 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:15,880 because this actually is a game that's been on my 1138 00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:17,760 radar for a few years. It's kind of like a 1139 00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:20,760 top down almost like a STARDUW kind of cozy experience 1140 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:23,280 where you're witch Broom Potions, probably doing some fight and 1141 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:25,440 exploring a world. And I was kind of surprised to 1142 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:28,000 see this release date here because I went on the 1143 00:48:28,079 --> 00:48:30,079 it's been on Steam for a while in early access, 1144 00:48:30,079 --> 00:48:31,760 and I went on the Steam page and like, it 1145 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:33,880 does not have this release date listed, and then I 1146 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:35,880 went in like the early access bubble and it was 1147 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,920 like the full release is planned for twenty twenty three, 1148 00:48:39,159 --> 00:48:41,119 and there's just been no update from there. And that's 1149 00:48:41,159 --> 00:48:43,000 to me, it's kind of worrying if like their early 1150 00:48:43,079 --> 00:48:46,719 access information is outdated by a whole two calendar years. 1151 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:48,239 So it makes me a little bit worried for this 1152 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:50,480 date of the game. So we'll see what happens with 1153 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:51,760 that one, But like I said, it has been on 1154 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:54,079 my radar for at a long time, so cool to 1155 00:48:54,079 --> 00:48:59,039 see that one's final finally coming out. The day after 1156 00:48:59,079 --> 00:49:02,320 that is Skate Skate in Early Access, the new skate game, 1157 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:05,280 and actually I meant to pull up there was a 1158 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:06,679 new trailer for this that just came out, kind of 1159 00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:09,840 announcing the early access date, and I don't know how 1160 00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:12,960 much that's gonna be or how fully fledged that early 1161 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:14,320 access is gonna be. I didn't play in one of 1162 00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:17,800 those early preview things that they had like closed betas 1163 00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:20,639 for whatever, any interest in skate? Are you you ever 1164 00:49:20,679 --> 00:49:21,599 played these skate. 1165 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:26,320 Speaker 2: Games I've played. I've played a few. Yeah, nothing I 1166 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:30,760 mean beyond I don't know, beyond the norm like Go 1167 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:32,360 one of my friends. I was after school and then 1168 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:35,119 just playing it that Yeah, super super casual. Nothing beyond that. 1169 00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:39,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I'm I'm very interested in this game. 1170 00:49:39,559 --> 00:49:41,840 I'm concerned about the live service nature of it because 1171 00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:44,000 that does not fit skate well in my opinion. So 1172 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:46,519 we'll see what happens there. But this is definitely a 1173 00:49:46,559 --> 00:49:48,800 wait for the full release kind of game, unless the 1174 00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:51,559 previews are insane and the early access is a fully 1175 00:49:51,559 --> 00:49:54,079 fledged game people feel that way, I'd be shocked if 1176 00:49:54,079 --> 00:49:56,400 they did. But I definitely want to get back and 1177 00:49:56,519 --> 00:49:58,199 get some more skate going on in my life. So 1178 00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:01,559 we'll see what happens there. Dying Light the Beast, which 1179 00:50:01,599 --> 00:50:03,960 is like a spin off sequel to kind of thing 1180 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,719 for Dying Light two, is coming out September nineteenth. Yeah, 1181 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:08,719 where are you out with Dying Like? 1182 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:08,880 Speaker 2: Is? 1183 00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:09,440 Speaker 1: You like the first one? 1184 00:50:09,519 --> 00:50:09,599 Speaker 2: Right? 1185 00:50:09,599 --> 00:50:10,880 Speaker 1: But I don't think you ever played the score. 1186 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:15,239 Speaker 2: I never played the sequel, and they had a pretty 1187 00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:19,719 big expansion to that first one too, But I really 1188 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:22,199 loved the first game and I played the absolute, you know, 1189 00:50:22,599 --> 00:50:24,800 the daylights out of it. I remember talking to Kirklan 1190 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:26,800 all about that back at the Target days, and it's 1191 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,679 just that that game has it's still sitting very high 1192 00:50:30,119 --> 00:50:32,679 on my my happy place list for for video games, 1193 00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:34,679 and I'd love to play some of these other ones. 1194 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:36,639 I just need to. I need to invest the time 1195 00:50:36,679 --> 00:50:38,599 into it because it's it's it's a lot of time, 1196 00:50:38,639 --> 00:50:41,239 but the Parkre system and the idea that you're going 1197 00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:44,719 out at nighttime and then you've got like these UV 1198 00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:48,239 sensitive night zombies to deal with that are super parkore 1199 00:50:48,320 --> 00:50:49,679 and super hard to deal with, and it's just a 1200 00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:53,599 terrifying experience. And that other people can join your match 1201 00:50:53,639 --> 00:50:55,719 and play as one of these zombies. And so you 1202 00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:58,559 basically got this one v four set up at Nighttime, 1203 00:50:58,639 --> 00:51:00,519 which is just it's a lot of fun. 1204 00:51:02,039 --> 00:51:04,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like I need to play these games 1205 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:06,599 because it's like everything you're describing about it is exactly 1206 00:51:06,639 --> 00:51:08,639 the kind of games I'm into. And just for the 1207 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:10,960 reason I haven't played that series yet, probably because there's 1208 00:51:11,039 --> 00:51:12,679 millions of games that exist, and I can want to 1209 00:51:12,679 --> 00:51:14,679 play so many in a given calendar date. I already 1210 00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:18,400 play an insane amount. So yeah, the Highlight's definitely on 1211 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:20,400 my list, but The Beast does not. When I'll be 1212 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:25,199 jumping in to the series, unfortunately, jumping up to the 1213 00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:27,840 twenty third, we have a Baby Steps, which is that 1214 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:31,800 weird foddy game with the weird controls or you're playing 1215 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:34,360 like this grown baby man and you're kind of walking 1216 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,480 through this world. Seems like very comedic, very funny. Jankye 1217 00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:39,920 controls all that good stuff that you know the developer 1218 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:42,719 has done before. So I'm really curious to see what 1219 00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:44,159 this one is. I don't know what the price point 1220 00:51:44,159 --> 00:51:45,800 of it is. If it's the right price, I could 1221 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,480 see myself checking it out because it just seems like 1222 00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:50,719 a weird, freaky mess and I'm into that kind of thing. 1223 00:51:52,119 --> 00:51:53,719 And then oh yeah, okay, here we go on September 1224 00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:56,320 twenty fifth is Sonic Racing Cross Worlds. Actually, so that's 1225 00:51:56,679 --> 00:51:58,920 only a short couple of weeks after Garfield. We'll see 1226 00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:02,800 which cart racer takes the sweep of September. Where is 1227 00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:04,559 your money on that one? If you had a pizza bet? 1228 00:52:04,599 --> 00:52:06,599 Which one do you think you're doing? Doing numbers? 1229 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:08,800 Speaker 2: I mean Garfield got a sequel, so it must be 1230 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:09,840 doing something right. 1231 00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:16,400 Speaker 1: That's true. Sonic Cross was also a sequel, though, I believe, Oh, well, 1232 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,320 don't we have a Garfield movie coming out right now? 1233 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 2: Didn't Chris Pratt announce it? So I think you're gonna 1234 00:52:20,039 --> 00:52:20,760 have that movie hype? 1235 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:22,199 Speaker 1: Didn't that come out like two years ago? 1236 00:52:24,079 --> 00:52:27,559 Speaker 2: There's a new one? I thought, Oh that as well. 1237 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:29,559 The sequel, yeah, kind of. 1238 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:31,280 Speaker 1: Tanked at the box office though, the first one. 1239 00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:35,320 Speaker 2: The Garfield twenty twenty four. Oh but yeah, the sequel, 1240 00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:38,119 Garfield two is officially in production with Chris Pratt. 1241 00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:40,920 Speaker 1: So Taylor counter argument, how many Sonic movies? Has there 1242 00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:42,800 been a fucking Knuckles TV show, which I know you 1243 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:44,119 in Kirklin loved so much. 1244 00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:46,239 Speaker 2: We're counting animated films as well? 1245 00:52:47,119 --> 00:52:49,079 Speaker 1: Is that true coming out? 1246 00:52:49,119 --> 00:52:51,440 Speaker 2: There's I think there's some animated films out there, but 1247 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:53,599 I know for I mean, yeah, three live actions and 1248 00:52:53,639 --> 00:52:56,840 then the live action series, so maybe a fourth one 1249 00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:58,440 with that. How they're going. 1250 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:01,320 Speaker 1: For some reason, it sounds like your team Garfield on 1251 00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:03,599 this debate, Yeah, advocate. 1252 00:53:03,679 --> 00:53:04,840 Speaker 2: I'm playing Devil's Advocate. 1253 00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:08,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, someone's got to do that for Garfield or else. 1254 00:53:08,199 --> 00:53:11,480 He's a lonely cat, you know, shouts to about those games. 1255 00:53:11,559 --> 00:53:13,239 I would love to play them, but I don't know 1256 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:15,400 if I want to buy them. Also, on the twenty 1257 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,159 fifth is Silent Hill F. That is a game I 1258 00:53:17,199 --> 00:53:19,760 want to play, but it's also one hundred dollars, and 1259 00:53:20,119 --> 00:53:21,679 I don't know if I'm throwing a hundred dollars on 1260 00:53:21,679 --> 00:53:24,199 a random bet. So I'm excited to see the previews 1261 00:53:24,199 --> 00:53:26,880 of that one. And you know, October, I'm always want 1262 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:28,840 to play scary games. I always want to play scary 1263 00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:31,599 or watch scary movies. So if the reviews are really 1264 00:53:31,639 --> 00:53:33,880 good for Silent F I might just impulse by it, 1265 00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:36,320 because that's my cup of tea for sure, and I 1266 00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:38,159 definitely want to do that. I already have a couple 1267 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:40,880 games on my list that I got to play in 1268 00:53:40,559 --> 00:53:42,920 in my scary season this year I'm gonna get back 1269 00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:45,280 into some more Resident Evil. I was thinking maybe pick 1270 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:49,400 up another Amnesia game place those, maybe evilin finally, so 1271 00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,199 I already have a few on the list, so I 1272 00:53:51,199 --> 00:53:52,639 don't know if I'm gonna get to Silent Hill f 1273 00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:54,920 but we shallsea. I've also never played a game in 1274 00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:56,639 the series, so you know, a bit of a wild 1275 00:53:56,679 --> 00:54:01,320 card there. Then we have what's the next thing that 1276 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:06,400 stands out? Final Fantasy Tactics on the September thirtieth, that remake. 1277 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:07,880 I do want to check that out at some point, 1278 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:09,559 but I don't know if I'm gonna be day one 1279 00:54:09,559 --> 00:54:12,000 and that bad Boy Lego Party on the thirtieth th 1280 00:54:12,159 --> 00:54:13,199 that was one of the games. You had it on 1281 00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:13,920 your draft, right? 1282 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:17,719 Speaker 2: Oh did I get that one? Yeah? I think that's 1283 00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:19,719 the one that I picked, Yeah. 1284 00:54:19,519 --> 00:54:21,760 Speaker 1: Which is essentially Mario Party for Legos. So once again 1285 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:24,400 interesting two Lego games coming out this month and not 1286 00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:28,599 like from TT Games, So that's kind of weird and cool, right. 1287 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:31,840 Speaker 2: Mm hmmm, yeah, I know it'll be cool to see 1288 00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:33,760 how this does. I can't remember if we've ever had 1289 00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:37,000 like a Mario Party styled Lego game before, but it 1290 00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:38,519 seems to kind of go hand in hand, Like it 1291 00:54:38,519 --> 00:54:41,719 makes sense when you can incorporate all these classic eyps 1292 00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:44,079 like Lego Pirates and Lego Knights and all that kind 1293 00:54:44,079 --> 00:54:47,039 of stuff in the different mini games, So it seems cool. 1294 00:54:47,599 --> 00:54:50,039 Speaker 1: It'd be even cooler if it had like a lot 1295 00:54:50,039 --> 00:54:52,719 of the IP from their other crossovers, Like you'll get 1296 00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:55,840 some Star Wars characters fighting against Batman, fighting against Superman 1297 00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:58,239 like or yeah, fighting against like Marvel character. I think 1298 00:54:58,239 --> 00:54:59,800 that would be super cool with that would obviously be 1299 00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:02,559 a lot of money, a lot of different people's pockets, 1300 00:55:02,559 --> 00:55:05,000 So I don't think that's realistic. Maybe someday we'll get 1301 00:55:05,039 --> 00:55:07,400 that crossover, you know, people talk about that, like we 1302 00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:10,360 ever get that, like, uh, you know DC Marvel crossover 1303 00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:13,320 in like the MCU, DCU whatever. I feel like it's 1304 00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:16,119 most likely happened in like the Lego universe. Maybe when 1305 00:55:16,119 --> 00:55:17,880 we finally get those crossovers, it would be the first 1306 00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:19,599 time I could see something like that happening. Did that 1307 00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:21,199 did not even happen in one of the Lego movies 1308 00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:23,239 Lego Batman or something. Was there a Marvel Marvel character 1309 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:24,840 in there? I don't think there was, but I feel 1310 00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:25,519 like there could have been. 1311 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:30,440 Speaker 2: It's it's highly probable. Yeah. Uh. 1312 00:55:30,519 --> 00:55:33,679 Speaker 1: That takes us over to October, and the first game 1313 00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:36,719 of October is on the second coast of Yotai, which 1314 00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:40,320 is obviously game Mee, Kirkland and Travis are all very 1315 00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:42,559 interested in. I think Kirkland is probably gonna pick it up. 1316 00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:44,599 Travis might as well. I'm still a little bit on 1317 00:55:44,639 --> 00:55:46,519 the fence. I'm excited about Legends, which is coming out 1318 00:55:46,519 --> 00:55:48,440 next year, but since it doesn't come out till next 1319 00:55:48,519 --> 00:55:51,440 year that the multiplayer add on, I might leave this 1320 00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:54,039 one on the on the on the bench for the moment. 1321 00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:57,719 So we'll see. But obviously this game is uh, it's 1322 00:55:57,760 --> 00:55:59,079 gonna be great. I mean, I have no doubt that 1323 00:55:59,119 --> 00:56:01,119 it's gonna be great. I'm just, you know, once again, 1324 00:56:01,159 --> 00:56:02,920 trying to plan my time. Which games do I want 1325 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,559 to play? And there's just too much, so I gotta 1326 00:56:05,559 --> 00:56:07,719 I gotta pick and choose and be really mean about 1327 00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:11,920 it to other games. Let's see, Okay, I gotta ask 1328 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:16,480 you about this one Battlefield six October tenth. You played 1329 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:19,159 the beta, right, you jumped into that bad. 1330 00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:20,519 Speaker 2: Boy, that bad boy? 1331 00:56:20,719 --> 00:56:22,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, so where are you at for this full release? 1332 00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:25,360 Are you wanting to pick this game out? And get 1333 00:56:25,400 --> 00:56:26,360 into Battlefield. 1334 00:56:27,039 --> 00:56:29,480 Speaker 2: I mean it should be dropping on games past as 1335 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:34,599 far as I'm concerned, So yeah, yeah, so I'll most 1336 00:56:34,639 --> 00:56:38,039 likely be uh going into this pretty hard. For the 1337 00:56:38,039 --> 00:56:41,400 first couple of weekends right for what I played on 1338 00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:44,159 the beta and some of my friends were diving in 1339 00:56:44,199 --> 00:56:46,280 there too. It was just such a good time. I 1340 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:49,639 was having a blast with just work again, more four 1341 00:56:49,679 --> 00:56:52,199 player co op stuff, squad based and some of these maps, 1342 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:54,519 like when I got into a fighter jet, I crashed 1343 00:56:54,639 --> 00:56:57,320 that with some of the most brutalist like mechanics, just 1344 00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,239 trying to make it work and pull it off, but 1345 00:57:00,159 --> 00:57:03,400 moving around with a sniper and just you know, decking 1346 00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:07,239 out your class a little bit and whatnot. It's it's 1347 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,239 an absolute good time. The environments are fantastic, and I 1348 00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:14,440 just feels feels vibrant and fresh. And it's been a 1349 00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:16,599 while since the last time I got Intotlefields Battlefield four, 1350 00:57:16,599 --> 00:57:18,920 and there's been so many like Hardline twenty forty two 1351 00:57:19,039 --> 00:57:20,719 and a bunch of others that have come out since then, 1352 00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:22,840 and none that I've really pulled me in. I skipped 1353 00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:24,960 most of those, and I wanted to get into forty two, 1354 00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:27,159 but I didn't, and I think the only reason forty 1355 00:57:27,199 --> 00:57:28,920 two is popping off right now is because you can 1356 00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:32,079 unlock cosmetics for Battlefield six by playing forty two, So 1357 00:57:32,119 --> 00:57:34,320 everyone's gone to play it. It's had a little bit 1358 00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:38,360 of a resurgence about that beta ended. Yeah, so there's that, 1359 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:41,360 But everything with the beta was great. It was super 1360 00:57:41,440 --> 00:57:44,159 awesome and high octane and intense. And between that and 1361 00:57:44,239 --> 00:57:46,719 Hell Divers, I just, oh, I'm I don't know how 1362 00:57:46,719 --> 00:57:49,079 I'm going to be handling all of this excitement. 1363 00:57:49,719 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, hopefully by like mid October, maybe hopefully you'll still 1364 00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:55,760 be super int Hell Divers, but maybe, you know, I 1365 00:57:55,800 --> 00:57:58,000 people wear up a little bit and you'll be open 1366 00:57:58,039 --> 00:57:59,760 to playing something else. But yeah, I think for us, 1367 00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:03,039 it's like always interesting to see when we have the weekends, 1368 00:58:03,039 --> 00:58:05,599 the night's free, where are we going when the multiplayer front, 1369 00:58:05,599 --> 00:58:07,400 you know, I Last Trials took over for a little bit. 1370 00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:09,079 Most of the time it's war Zone, which is like 1371 00:58:09,079 --> 00:58:13,360 the default background jump into you know, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, 1372 00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:15,480 which we had for a few weeks there. So it's 1373 00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:17,880 always interesting to see which one stick. And I think 1374 00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:19,559 Hell Divers is gonna be with those one of those 1375 00:58:19,599 --> 00:58:21,400 ones that sticks. And I imagine we're playing that through 1376 00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:23,239 the end of the year and into the next battle 1377 00:58:23,239 --> 00:58:25,280 Pass and all that stuff. So we'll see how many 1378 00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:28,199 weekends Battlefield six can steal away from us as kind 1379 00:58:28,199 --> 00:58:29,360 of the way I think about it, because yea, if 1380 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:31,320 it is on game Pass, which as you mentioned it 1381 00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:34,039 should be, I'll definitely jump into it as well. I'm 1382 00:58:34,079 --> 00:58:36,039 pretty green when it comes to Battlefield. They've only kind 1383 00:58:36,039 --> 00:58:37,679 of dabbled in those games a little bit, kind of 1384 00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:40,159 how much you've played skate, just playing at your friends 1385 00:58:40,199 --> 00:58:41,519 house everyone in while it is kind of where I'm 1386 00:58:41,519 --> 00:58:44,360 at with Battlefield, but there's a lot to like there, 1387 00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:46,800 and I think especially because I think the Battlefield is 1388 00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:49,159 like a slower and more tactical first person shooter. And 1389 00:58:49,199 --> 00:58:50,920 obviously we talked about this with like Call of Duty 1390 00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:54,639 last year. How I'm getting older, my reflexes. I just 1391 00:58:54,639 --> 00:58:56,920 can't keep up with these kids anymore, you know, dashing 1392 00:58:56,960 --> 00:59:00,760 around multi omni directionally, diving around corner. I can't keep 1393 00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:03,719 up with it. And so maybe Battlefield slower pace, maybe 1394 00:59:03,719 --> 00:59:06,920 that's what I need in my senile state. So we'll 1395 00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,000 see what happens there. But I'm excited for Battlefield six. 1396 00:59:09,039 --> 00:59:11,519 I did not play in the weekend. I think it's 1397 00:59:11,519 --> 00:59:13,280 had a couple of weekends now, right, but I did 1398 00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:15,559 not play any of those, So I don't really know 1399 00:59:15,599 --> 00:59:17,239 what to expect from this other than I've heard great 1400 00:59:17,239 --> 00:59:19,119 things from it pretty much everyone who's played it, which 1401 00:59:19,119 --> 00:59:22,440 is a really good sign for an unfinished game that 1402 00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:25,639 people are playing, because normally it's like riddled issues. People 1403 00:59:25,679 --> 00:59:27,559 have problems here there, and I'm sure there were fair 1404 00:59:27,639 --> 00:59:30,519 number of bugs and shitty servers and all that, but 1405 00:59:31,039 --> 00:59:33,400 I feel like it's mostly positive, so that's a good time. 1406 00:59:35,039 --> 00:59:37,159 Maybe I should have prefaced this earlier on. I'm not 1407 00:59:37,199 --> 00:59:39,039 bringing up every single game that's coming out, because there's 1408 00:59:39,199 --> 00:59:41,800 hundreds of them, even on this shorter list. I'm just 1409 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:43,280 bringing out the ones that I think are kind of relevant 1410 00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:45,119 for us here in this group. So you know, if 1411 00:59:45,119 --> 00:59:47,400 I've skipped over something, sorry about that, but it's probably 1412 00:59:47,719 --> 00:59:53,039 not on our radar. Let's see.

Let's take our 1428 01:00:34,199 --> 01:00:40,159 last break. We'll be right back. Okay, we are back 1429 01:00:41,079 --> 01:00:44,239 taylor Field. We are in early October. Well technically we're 1430 01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,800 early in September, but in our clairvoyant state, we are 1431 01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:52,119 looking ahead at October, just like your trivia battle and 1432 01:00:52,559 --> 01:00:56,159 another little Nightmares three is another horror game coming out 1433 01:00:56,159 --> 01:00:59,280 in October. I've not played any of these games yet, unfortunately, 1434 01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:00,960 but I feel like I need so rather than playing 1435 01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:02,400 the third one, I'll probably go back and check out 1436 01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:03,920 the first one at some point, which probably should it's 1437 01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:06,280 probably super cheap now and maybe a another horror game 1438 01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:07,960 to put on my list for this year. But the 1439 01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:11,079 third games coming out October tenth, that's pretty good. 1440 01:01:11,239 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 2: Oh. 1441 01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:14,280 Speaker 1: It also looks like the first one enhanced editions coming 1442 01:01:14,320 --> 01:01:16,480 up that same day, so that's interesting. Little one two punch, 1443 01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:20,079 perfect time to jump into the series. We got to 1444 01:01:20,199 --> 01:01:23,840 just dance game. We've got a Nascar game. October is 1445 01:01:23,840 --> 01:01:25,480 a busy month for me, and it starts right about 1446 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:29,239 here around the fifteenth with ball Pit, which is a 1447 01:01:29,320 --> 01:01:31,920 weird indie game published by Devolver Digital. Kind of looks 1448 01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:35,960 a lot like Loop Hero and it's kind of like 1449 01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:39,039 a brick breaker sort of game with roguelike elements and 1450 01:01:39,079 --> 01:01:40,760 a bunch of weird stuff going on and a town 1451 01:01:40,760 --> 01:01:43,280 builder mixed in there. I am extremely excited for this game, 1452 01:01:43,280 --> 01:01:46,199 and I think it looks really weird, really cryptic, really interesting, 1453 01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:48,639 really different. So I'm definitely gonna be picking that on 1454 01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:50,360 that that's you know, there's so many games in October 1455 01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:51,800 and it's hard to pick and choose those ones I 1456 01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:53,880 want to play, but that one's like a guarantee one 1457 01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:56,320 hund percent pick up unless the reviews are like dog 1458 01:01:56,320 --> 01:01:58,199 shit and like it's you know, twenty on metacritive. Then 1459 01:01:58,199 --> 01:02:00,239 maybe I'll rethink things, but I don't know. I think 1460 01:02:00,239 --> 01:02:03,199 it'll be at least pretty interesting. So interested in that one. 1461 01:02:03,639 --> 01:02:08,920 And then Pokemon Legends z A Pokemon Zaws come on sixteenth. Taylor, 1462 01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:10,840 tell me a bit about this one as the You know, 1463 01:02:11,119 --> 01:02:13,519 I'm a very casual Pokemon guy, but you're more of 1464 01:02:13,559 --> 01:02:14,280 a Pokemon guy. 1465 01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:17,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been following this loosely. You're not going again, 1466 01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:21,039 so I'll start from the top. Pokemon X and Y 1467 01:02:21,559 --> 01:02:25,000 were my favorites. It's an underrated one. I'd say a 1468 01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:27,239 lot of people hate that. They don't like the megavolution 1469 01:02:27,440 --> 01:02:29,679 anything like that. This is circling back to that we're 1470 01:02:29,679 --> 01:02:32,280 going to Limeo City, We're getting mega evolution coming back. 1471 01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:35,079 I am totally on board for it, but the game 1472 01:02:35,159 --> 01:02:40,079 itself just being limited to this, this kind of the 1473 01:02:40,079 --> 01:02:42,159 city and whatnot. I was hoping for something a little 1474 01:02:42,159 --> 01:02:45,199 bit more mainline, a little bit more explorative and whatnot. 1475 01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:47,880 But that being said to each his own, I think 1476 01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:51,400 that them introducing all these new mega evolutionary forms is great, 1477 01:02:51,440 --> 01:02:56,440 like Dragonaire getting mega evolution, victory Bill Halucha, like they're 1478 01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:59,519 just there pop off heat, a couple of heat packing 1479 01:02:59,599 --> 01:03:02,559 heat he is. So there's a whole bunch of cool 1480 01:03:02,599 --> 01:03:04,440 new forms that they're bringing out and that really really 1481 01:03:04,519 --> 01:03:06,920 has me excited. That'll change the competitive scene a little 1482 01:03:06,960 --> 01:03:09,639 bit more. But at its core, I'm not going to 1483 01:03:09,679 --> 01:03:12,079 be rushing to get this right away. I still have 1484 01:03:12,159 --> 01:03:16,920 to go back and play Legends Archaeus first to try 1485 01:03:16,960 --> 01:03:18,800 and feel out how that one is. And I'm still 1486 01:03:18,800 --> 01:03:20,760 playing through and I think you'd. 1487 01:03:20,639 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 1: Like considering like the openness of it when I guess 1488 01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:25,840 Viole it's also scratching that itch though in terms of 1489 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:28,239 the openness and not being yeah, but like being in 1490 01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:29,360 the wild it is. 1491 01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:30,800 Speaker 2: And I have to put it up on the switch too, 1492 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:33,519 because I've seen that they've supplied little updates to it. 1493 01:03:33,639 --> 01:03:35,920 So I don't know if, like visually, if it's better, 1494 01:03:36,079 --> 01:03:36,960 I'm I have to. 1495 01:03:36,960 --> 01:03:39,599 Speaker 1: I think the frame rates are better and maybe slight 1496 01:03:39,719 --> 01:03:42,840 visual improvement, but probably not a ton of change there. 1497 01:03:43,159 --> 01:03:45,599 Maybe do you would you be playing that Handhelder on 1498 01:03:45,639 --> 01:03:47,360 the TV? I guess you kind of playing on the TV. 1499 01:03:47,599 --> 01:03:48,320 Speaker 2: I'd play on the TV. 1500 01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:49,480 Speaker 1: So I don't know. If you don't know, just must 1501 01:03:49,519 --> 01:03:50,960 do a difference because I feel like with handheld, you 1502 01:03:51,039 --> 01:03:52,719 go in from seven twenty to ten eighty. But I 1503 01:03:52,719 --> 01:03:55,239 don't know, I don't know if the TV's changed much there, 1504 01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:59,679 but at least the frame rates should be better for you. Yeah, yeah, 1505 01:03:59,679 --> 01:04:02,519 poke legend. I'm curious to see how that one does, 1506 01:04:02,559 --> 01:04:05,679 and like if we keep adding more of these this 1507 01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:08,679 kind of spinoff thing, and obviously we're due for the 1508 01:04:08,719 --> 01:04:11,480 next generation probably what is that gonna be next year? 1509 01:04:11,519 --> 01:04:12,519 Is that gonna be two years from now? 1510 01:04:12,519 --> 01:04:16,599 Speaker 2: Do you think when did Scarland Violet come out? I 1511 01:04:16,599 --> 01:04:20,519 think it was like twenty twenty three, twenty twenty two, Yeah, 1512 01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:26,239 so before that, what was it before that? Sword and Shield? 1513 01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:29,159 Speaker 1: Well Archas was the same year? Wasn't also twenty twenty three? 1514 01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:32,920 Speaker 2: Yes, but I guess I wouldn't say that's necessarily different 1515 01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:34,519 generations on. 1516 01:04:34,559 --> 01:04:37,079 Speaker 1: The launch of the switch, like twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen. 1517 01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:40,840 Speaker 2: Twenty nineteen. Your dates are on point damn. So twenty nineteen, 1518 01:04:41,320 --> 01:04:45,119 twenty twenty two, so about yeah, three years, uh, three 1519 01:04:45,239 --> 01:04:47,880 four years, so I'd say. 1520 01:04:47,320 --> 01:04:50,920 Speaker 1: We're due for one, And I mean Violet they kind 1521 01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:52,280 of just pooped that one out, didn't they, Like, I 1522 01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:55,000 don't know, oh they did, yeah, oh yeah, h hopefully 1523 01:04:55,039 --> 01:04:58,559 they spra Oh yeah, they hopefully they've been, you know, 1524 01:04:58,599 --> 01:05:02,119 putting that juice into this one instead. We'll see, we'll see. 1525 01:05:02,159 --> 01:05:03,519 I mean haven't played the game. I'm just you know, 1526 01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:06,079 judging that frame rate because it deserves to be judged. 1527 01:05:06,199 --> 01:05:08,280 Speaker 2: Well, judge it does. Yeah, God damn. 1528 01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:11,719 Speaker 1: Okay, Well, since Zia's stay on the shelf, does that 1529 01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:13,880 mean I'm jumping ahead? I'll jump back afterwards. But does 1530 01:05:13,920 --> 01:05:17,039 that mean you have capacity for Dresser World Evolution three 1531 01:05:17,079 --> 01:05:18,840 on the twenty first? Is that a pick up for you? 1532 01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:21,000 Or is that a wait and see? 1533 01:05:22,199 --> 01:05:23,800 Speaker 2: Uh? I know I want to play it. I know 1534 01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:25,880 it's gonna be a good time because they've introduced what 1535 01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:30,559 looks like adolescent dinosaur or juvenile dinosaurs I'll say, family groups, 1536 01:05:30,599 --> 01:05:33,400 and a whole bunch more of different things. And I've 1537 01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:35,719 gone back and like a few months ago, I was 1538 01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:38,559 playing more Drastical Revolution too, just building like a super 1539 01:05:38,599 --> 01:05:42,039 custom island and whatnot, just having fun sandbox mode. But 1540 01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:45,000 for this, I'm absolutely going to wait for it to 1541 01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:47,639 go on sale. I've seen sales of Drastic Revolution two 1542 01:05:47,679 --> 01:05:49,519 being like two bucks three bucks. 1543 01:05:49,639 --> 01:05:51,760 Speaker 1: Two games like went on game Pass and he has 1544 01:05:51,800 --> 01:05:54,079 plus the different Yes, so this one could as well. 1545 01:05:54,320 --> 01:05:56,719 Speaker 2: That's right, and I see, yeah, I'm just gonna wait. 1546 01:05:56,960 --> 01:05:58,239 I can wait if I want to play it. I 1547 01:05:58,280 --> 01:05:59,840 got the other two to get me by, so I'm 1548 01:05:59,880 --> 01:06:00,679 in no hurry. 1549 01:06:01,719 --> 01:06:04,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that makes sense. Also a game I want 1550 01:06:04,519 --> 01:06:06,159 to play at some point, but like, yeah, I still 1551 01:06:06,519 --> 01:06:08,599 barely descritch the surface of two and one, so I 1552 01:06:08,599 --> 01:06:11,039 feel like I have a lot more to sandbox around 1553 01:06:11,039 --> 01:06:12,760 playing the sandbox with before I need to get into 1554 01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:13,320 the third one. 1555 01:06:14,480 --> 01:06:14,599 Speaker 2: Uh. 1556 01:06:14,719 --> 01:06:19,480 Speaker 1: And then going back in time October seventeenth and twentieth, 1557 01:06:20,920 --> 01:06:23,079 we got Keeper and then Ninja gaid and four back 1558 01:06:23,079 --> 01:06:24,719 to back. These are a couple of games hitting game 1559 01:06:24,760 --> 01:06:26,760 Pass and so I'll be playing both of them through there. 1560 01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:28,440 Keeper I'm very interested in and I've never played a 1561 01:06:28,480 --> 01:06:29,960 double find game. This is gonna be my first time 1562 01:06:30,039 --> 01:06:32,440 jumping in, but I'm sure it'll be, you know, one 1563 01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:34,239 of many, because I a lot of their games kind 1564 01:06:34,239 --> 01:06:36,320 of speak to me. And then Ninja Goid four, I 1565 01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:39,679 played the remake of two Ninja goitd in two black 1566 01:06:40,119 --> 01:06:42,000 because what it was called I came up earlier this year. 1567 01:06:42,400 --> 01:06:43,880 It's not really my cup of tea. I didn't really 1568 01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:45,880 expect it to be and it wasn't. I don't think 1569 01:06:45,920 --> 01:06:47,639 this will be either, But because it's game Pass, I'll 1570 01:06:47,639 --> 01:06:49,400 play the first couple levels and see how that goes 1571 01:06:49,440 --> 01:06:51,880 for me, and who knows, maybe I'll stick with it. 1572 01:06:52,639 --> 01:06:54,519 But yeah, I'm excited. That's gonna be a big week 1573 01:06:54,519 --> 01:06:56,119 for game Pass. Two pretty big gets, one of the 1574 01:06:56,119 --> 01:06:57,880 first party games, and then like a big third party 1575 01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:00,840 for them, and when that's closest so say with Xbox. 1576 01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:02,599 Both the games are coming to PlayStation as well, but 1577 01:07:02,639 --> 01:07:05,159 I think that'll be a good week for that service. 1578 01:07:06,320 --> 01:07:10,000 And then skipping ahead, plans for Zombies replanted another one 1579 01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:11,880 in October twenty third that I'm one hundred percent of 1580 01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:14,320 picking this up. You know, there's some new levels, some 1581 01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:16,639 new content, some new things going on in there, and 1582 01:07:16,800 --> 01:07:18,719 I just love that game so much coming to the Switch, 1583 01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:20,679 so the first game is not even on there, So 1584 01:07:20,920 --> 01:07:23,559 one hundred percent day one pick up for me. I'm 1585 01:07:23,559 --> 01:07:25,400 excited to tell you and Kirkland all about that one 1586 01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:27,199 because you guys are obviously fans of that as well. 1587 01:07:27,559 --> 01:07:29,800 You're you're probably not gonna pick that one up at launch, 1588 01:07:29,840 --> 01:07:31,519 Maybe wait for a sale or something down. 1589 01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:33,639 Speaker 2: The road, kind of thing, probably for a sale. I mean, 1590 01:07:33,639 --> 01:07:36,519 I've been playing the old plans for Zombies on my phone. 1591 01:07:36,559 --> 01:07:39,480 I downloaded that again and just been enjoying that world. 1592 01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:42,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I don't think the changes are monumental, like 1593 01:07:42,239 --> 01:07:44,480 some new challenge levels or whatever. But you know, you 1594 01:07:44,519 --> 01:07:46,360 don't need all that kind of stuff. The base game 1595 01:07:46,360 --> 01:07:49,079 already has a ton of content in it anyway. And 1596 01:07:49,119 --> 01:07:51,400 then also another big game pass get for the month 1597 01:07:51,519 --> 01:07:55,480 is October twenty nine is The Outer World's two, which 1598 01:07:55,519 --> 01:07:58,519 is a game that I just knowing the size of it, 1599 01:07:58,519 --> 01:08:01,440 which you know, not the hugest RPG. I don't know 1600 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:03,000 if I'm gonna be playing that one at launched. I 1601 01:08:03,079 --> 01:08:05,559 probably will jump into it. I'm sure all the improvements 1602 01:08:05,559 --> 01:08:08,039 will be there. I've talked about my Journey Art World 1603 01:08:08,039 --> 01:08:10,119 one kind of extensively before, so I don't need to 1604 01:08:10,360 --> 01:08:12,840 repeat here. But just because of the time of the year, 1605 01:08:12,880 --> 01:08:14,280 I just don't know how much I'll be wanting to 1606 01:08:14,320 --> 01:08:17,039 jump into that new experience at that point in time. 1607 01:08:17,079 --> 01:08:19,000 So we'll see. I would like to check it out. 1608 01:08:19,319 --> 01:08:21,279 Had a good time with a Vowed this year, even 1609 01:08:21,279 --> 01:08:24,880 if it kind of lost a bit of its special 1610 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:27,359 qualities by the time I got to the endgame, so 1611 01:08:27,359 --> 01:08:29,479 hopefully Our World's two does not do that. It's a sequel, 1612 01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:31,319 so if it is a good chance to kind of right, 1613 01:08:31,359 --> 01:08:33,159 it's wrong. So the first game will comes some fresh 1614 01:08:33,159 --> 01:08:35,439 new stuff. So we'll see. I'll be playing that one. 1615 01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:37,560 You played the first one three game Pass, you think 1616 01:08:37,560 --> 01:08:39,359 you'll jump into this one. There's a ton of games 1617 01:08:39,359 --> 01:08:41,640 on game Pass this month, so you're obviously stripped for 1618 01:08:41,720 --> 01:08:42,399 time already. 1619 01:08:43,960 --> 01:08:47,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, I am. I don't know if I'm 1620 01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:49,159 gonna I don't know if I'm gona be racing to 1621 01:08:49,640 --> 01:08:53,199 hopping on here right away. But again, like like the 1622 01:08:53,199 --> 01:08:56,439 whole night, it's gonna be on my eye. 1623 01:08:56,640 --> 01:08:59,520 Speaker 1: On your eye. Yep. We got Dragon Request one plus 1624 01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:03,439 two h remakes. I actually just bought the original Dragon 1625 01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:05,199 Quest one on two on Switch recently, so I'm just 1626 01:09:05,239 --> 01:09:07,640 gonna goes instead, I think, and then maybe jump into 1627 01:09:07,640 --> 01:09:11,119 the remakes at some point. And then, speaking of Hollow Night, 1628 01:09:11,199 --> 01:09:13,640 mean to the hallow weer. It's coming out October thirty first, 1629 01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:14,920 which is another day one for me. I played the 1630 01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:16,760 demo a little bit just to be like, oh, yeah, 1631 01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:19,720 this game is great. I think what they've done with 1632 01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:21,920 Shovel Night and what they're doing here really really cool, 1633 01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:25,079 like they kind of retro style old kind of you know, 1634 01:09:25,199 --> 01:09:27,880 taking some of the classic Nintendo sauce and making like 1635 01:09:27,920 --> 01:09:30,880 a modern version of it. So very excited for this game. 1636 01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:33,000 It's gonna be great. I have no doubt about that. 1637 01:09:34,159 --> 01:09:36,359 So yeah, mean the Hollower is a pickup for me 1638 01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:40,760 for sure. Two D no fake. Do you know what 1639 01:09:40,760 --> 01:09:41,359 that game is? 1640 01:09:42,239 --> 01:09:45,640 Speaker 2: Yeah? I watched they did a nice cool revealed trailer 1641 01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:47,920 for that. Really like it. It's just I think it's 1642 01:09:47,960 --> 01:09:53,279 a remastered of the old Terminator game. Yeah, just updated and. 1643 01:09:53,359 --> 01:09:54,479 Speaker 1: Art style looks great. 1644 01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:58,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I love the Yeah, it's it's it's I saw 1645 01:09:58,199 --> 01:10:00,960 that and I just wanted to play it, even though 1646 01:10:01,119 --> 01:10:02,760 I don't think I would be very good at it 1647 01:10:02,840 --> 01:10:05,319 or get very far. But just the score, that og 1648 01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:08,039 Terminator theme kicking in, and just the graphics, it just 1649 01:10:08,079 --> 01:10:09,840 looks very nostalgic. 1650 01:10:10,359 --> 01:10:15,960 Speaker 1: Hell yeah, right on, let's move right along to November. 1651 01:10:17,199 --> 01:10:20,479 Kicking off November is the fifth of November. We have Cairen, 1652 01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:22,960 which is the rock climbing game, kind of a very 1653 01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:26,039 close simulation rock climbing game. Very excited for this one. 1654 01:10:26,039 --> 01:10:29,159 I think it looks great. Kirkland played it and enjoyed it, 1655 01:10:29,319 --> 01:10:30,960 although you think he had some difficulty with it. You 1656 01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:32,840 find a little little hard to parse. It's you know, 1657 01:10:33,039 --> 01:10:35,800 very very technical, I think is kind of the vibe 1658 01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:38,359 I'm getting from it. But yeah, I think that game 1659 01:10:38,399 --> 01:10:40,239 looks really great. Probably gonna be picking that one up 1660 01:10:40,279 --> 01:10:43,960 for myself. And then what else in November? It look 1661 01:10:44,199 --> 01:10:48,039 looks a little bit quiet until a lot of switch 1662 01:10:48,119 --> 01:10:50,920 to ports is one thing I'm seeing here until we 1663 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:53,920 get to the thirteenth and O one one seven, which 1664 01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:55,560 I'll just shout out because it's on your draft list, 1665 01:10:55,560 --> 01:10:57,760 So there you go, you're getting I didn't even know 1666 01:10:57,800 --> 01:11:00,880 how to subtitle packs Romana what it's called, So there 1667 01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:04,239 you go. You're not playing that right Just at that 1668 01:11:04,279 --> 01:11:04,439 was a. 1669 01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:06,960 Speaker 2: Draft pick because I think those games do pretty good. 1670 01:11:07,119 --> 01:11:09,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, and another one that I'll play it only because 1671 01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:11,359 it's on game Pass, but Call of Duty Black Ops 1672 01:11:11,399 --> 01:11:14,760 seven excited. Maybe you know, see what's going on new 1673 01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:17,199 is Zombies campaign. I'll check out a little bit. I'll 1674 01:11:17,199 --> 01:11:19,079 play some of the multiplayer, but probably just get overwhelmed 1675 01:11:19,079 --> 01:11:21,720 by these controls, Like is omni movement still in this and. 1676 01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:24,399 Speaker 2: Like I hope not, fuck, I hope not just kind 1677 01:11:24,399 --> 01:11:25,039 of christ. 1678 01:11:25,279 --> 01:11:27,199 Speaker 1: All the new quality games have that, Like, that's just 1679 01:11:27,239 --> 01:11:29,880 a new basic feature. 1680 01:11:30,079 --> 01:11:32,039 Speaker 2: The only omni movement I need in my life is 1681 01:11:32,039 --> 01:11:35,600 hell divers too. I don't need it in Call of Duty. 1682 01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:39,079 Speaker 1: Where's your hype level for seven? Are you excited to 1683 01:11:39,159 --> 01:11:41,439 check these games out that they can't paign just zombies? 1684 01:11:41,479 --> 01:11:41,960 Not at all? 1685 01:11:42,239 --> 01:11:45,760 Speaker 2: No. They for me, zombies peaked when they brought it 1686 01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:48,720 in Modern Warfare and they did the open world like, okay, 1687 01:11:48,760 --> 01:11:50,840 you're dropping in. You got like fifty minutes in this 1688 01:11:50,920 --> 01:11:53,119 whole city scape, do a bunch of missions, whatnot. There's 1689 01:11:53,159 --> 01:11:55,840 other squads that you can run into doing things like 1690 01:11:56,399 --> 01:12:00,560 it was an absolute banger of a time. And they 1691 01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:03,319 went back to Round Bay zombies and the Round Bay 1692 01:12:03,359 --> 01:12:06,760 Zombies nowadays is just for me to each his own. 1693 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:09,119 For me, it's garbage. It's not what it was like 1694 01:12:09,159 --> 01:12:11,399 in those first few Black Ops games, and that again 1695 01:12:11,479 --> 01:12:13,920 like World of War it's very different and like the 1696 01:12:13,960 --> 01:12:16,439 Gobblegumps and everything like that, and it's just, oh, this 1697 01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:20,840 is lame. I like your OG four perks, your pack punch, 1698 01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:24,119 just the basic of the basic and even the maps too. 1699 01:12:24,199 --> 01:12:28,680 We're just better back then. The maps now are they're 1700 01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:30,560 just they're they're lame, and it kind of defeats the 1701 01:12:30,560 --> 01:12:32,800 purpose of the round base because to me, it feels 1702 01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:36,399 like it's just a a swing and a miss for 1703 01:12:36,479 --> 01:12:38,399 trying to be something a little bit more open world. 1704 01:12:38,560 --> 01:12:42,520 And then they focus heavily on doing the story missions 1705 01:12:42,520 --> 01:12:44,920 in there too, where you do all the objectives in there, 1706 01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:46,960 and then you can move forward into the story and 1707 01:12:46,960 --> 01:12:50,079 you get like a big boss or whatever. Man, you're 1708 01:12:50,119 --> 01:12:52,720 getting massive bosses in there that I don't care about. 1709 01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:55,079 I don't want to do that. I want there to 1710 01:12:55,119 --> 01:12:58,920 be the very simple but yet difficult background easter eggs 1711 01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:00,119 so that you can do like in the o G 1712 01:13:00,279 --> 01:13:02,600 zombies that they had. They had, because that was some 1713 01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:05,159 very difficult, brutal shit, but it was great and it 1714 01:13:05,199 --> 01:13:07,560 was subtle and you weren't You didn't need to do it. 1715 01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:09,800 You could just enjoy yourself and you could play the 1716 01:13:09,840 --> 01:13:15,000 game boarding up windows, easy, simple round based style gameplay. 1717 01:13:15,199 --> 01:13:16,800 They should just go back to that, they really should. 1718 01:13:16,920 --> 01:13:19,479 The storyline. I don't care for the mental stuff, the 1719 01:13:19,520 --> 01:13:22,720 psyche whatever, dream sequence, mumbo jumble, They've done that in 1720 01:13:22,720 --> 01:13:25,199 Call Duty before. It's not my ace, not my cup 1721 01:13:25,199 --> 01:13:27,359 of tea. Don't like it, and as the multiplayer it's 1722 01:13:27,359 --> 01:13:29,319 probably gonna do the same thing as Black Ops six. 1723 01:13:30,399 --> 01:13:33,199 Just they always bring Nuketown back every fucking time. It's 1724 01:13:33,199 --> 01:13:36,000 always Nuketown, just changed in some skin. I can't even 1725 01:13:36,279 --> 01:13:38,239 I'm gonna google it. How many times have they brought 1726 01:13:38,319 --> 01:13:39,159 Nuketown back. 1727 01:13:41,319 --> 01:13:44,199 Speaker 1: That's a good question. It's kind of different every time though, right, 1728 01:13:44,319 --> 01:13:44,800 or they think. 1729 01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:48,359 Speaker 2: It's a little different, a little different. At least eight 1730 01:13:48,439 --> 01:13:51,720 times they've brought it back. So Black Ops, Black Ops two, 1731 01:13:51,760 --> 01:13:54,000 Black Ops three, Black Ops four, Black Ops Cold War 1732 01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:59,800 Black Ops six, and then they even they did it 1733 01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:03,920 other one playing that season that's the Zombies on Nuketown 1734 01:14:04,079 --> 01:14:06,760 was actually fun. That map with the zombies incorporated was 1735 01:14:06,800 --> 01:14:09,159 great when they brought it Black Ops. I think those 1736 01:14:09,199 --> 01:14:11,119 Black Ops too, they put it and that was a 1737 01:14:11,119 --> 01:14:13,840 prude or bonus if I remember correctly. If you prooded 1738 01:14:13,840 --> 01:14:15,720 the game, then you get that map, and that was 1739 01:14:16,239 --> 01:14:18,239 It's so much fun. I've got that. I'm pretty sure 1740 01:14:18,239 --> 01:14:21,840 on my like three sixties. Still, yeah, damn, good time. 1741 01:14:22,520 --> 01:14:27,319 Speaker 1: That's cool. Yeah, I it's interesting. Like last year of 1742 01:14:27,359 --> 01:14:29,359 Black Ops six, that was the first time to call 1743 01:14:29,399 --> 01:14:31,359 it new quality of the game was on game Pass. 1744 01:14:31,359 --> 01:14:34,319 Obviously that acquisition finally went through, So because of that, 1745 01:14:34,359 --> 01:14:35,840 I jumped into the campaign, and then me and you 1746 01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:38,319 played some Zombies together. And I think it's telling that, like, 1747 01:14:38,359 --> 01:14:40,680 you know, we played Zombies like once or twice and 1748 01:14:40,720 --> 01:14:42,279 then just like didn't really feel the need to come 1749 01:14:42,279 --> 01:14:44,359 back and like master it and like ooh, it's beat 1750 01:14:44,359 --> 01:14:46,920 our high school or get to round twenty around thirty, 1751 01:14:47,319 --> 01:14:48,920 all that kind of thing. And like even the single player, 1752 01:14:48,960 --> 01:14:50,399 which is something I've done a lot in my life, 1753 01:14:50,439 --> 01:14:52,640 even without friends, just like how much can I do 1754 01:14:52,720 --> 01:14:54,680 on my own? I just didn't really have the pull 1755 01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:57,159 for it. I think it's just like a little over complicated. 1756 01:14:57,199 --> 01:14:59,760 It's a little I don't know if gimmicky is the 1757 01:14:59,800 --> 01:15:01,880 right where there's just a bit too much going on, 1758 01:15:02,119 --> 01:15:04,479 and I don't know, maybe it's also just a nostalgia thing, 1759 01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:06,279 is what's speaking to me both some of those old ones, 1760 01:15:06,279 --> 01:15:08,359 but I think they it's definitely changed over time, and 1761 01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:10,560 I don't really like some of these new changes as well. 1762 01:15:10,680 --> 01:15:12,680 So I'll give it a shot, but yeah, I doubt 1763 01:15:12,720 --> 01:15:15,239 it's gonna sweep me off my feet, So we'll see 1764 01:15:15,239 --> 01:15:15,920 what happens there. 1765 01:15:16,199 --> 01:15:20,079 Speaker 2: I should highlight too that the operator packs that you 1766 01:15:20,079 --> 01:15:22,119 bought for Black Ops six are not pouring over into 1767 01:15:22,119 --> 01:15:25,199 the multiplayer for Black Ops seven, but war Zone is unaffected. 1768 01:15:25,520 --> 01:15:27,840 So everyone just take a breather. That's how it's always been. 1769 01:15:28,239 --> 01:15:30,239 Your packs just they work in war Zone. That's a 1770 01:15:30,239 --> 01:15:33,000 separate entity. But everyone's freaking out, Like I bought Ninja 1771 01:15:33,039 --> 01:15:35,199 Turtles and I can't plays them in Black Ops seven. 1772 01:15:35,239 --> 01:15:37,720 What's going on? It's like, no, chill, chill. 1773 01:15:38,319 --> 01:15:40,960 Speaker 1: I feel like those people should have learned by now 1774 01:15:41,119 --> 01:15:41,600 would be my. 1775 01:15:41,840 --> 01:15:47,159 Speaker 2: Oh oh yes, yeah, But anyway, they don't. Uh. 1776 01:15:48,399 --> 01:15:50,119 Speaker 1: A game here that I hadn't heard about and I 1777 01:15:50,159 --> 01:15:52,000 just looked at now seeing this list is a game 1778 01:15:52,039 --> 01:15:54,159 called The Berlin Apartment, which I think is based on 1779 01:15:54,199 --> 01:15:56,159 a book maybe, but you don't see that often. You 1780 01:15:56,159 --> 01:15:59,279 don't often see like a book to game. You often see, 1781 01:15:59,359 --> 01:16:02,359 you know, movie game or other things like that. But 1782 01:16:02,439 --> 01:16:05,079 I think this is pretty cool a game. I'll just 1783 01:16:05,239 --> 01:16:09,640 the seem description here is one apartment, many stories witness 1784 01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:12,359 turning points in the lives of its inhabitants of an 1785 01:16:12,399 --> 01:16:15,199 apartment in Berlin over the course of a whole century. 1786 01:16:15,239 --> 01:16:17,319 So it seems like I don't know I don't know 1787 01:16:17,359 --> 01:16:19,159 what the gameplay is actually like, but you're just jumping 1788 01:16:19,159 --> 01:16:22,479 through to this one apartment different points in time, seeing 1789 01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:24,600 different families, and I don't know, I don't see any 1790 01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:27,439 characters in the pictures here. I just see like the 1791 01:16:27,520 --> 01:16:29,720 apartment itself. So maybe just walking around there's a little 1792 01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:32,479 bits of storytelling here or there. But you know what, boom, 1793 01:16:32,520 --> 01:16:34,000 I've just hit the add to wishless button. I think 1794 01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:36,279 this game looks really cool. It was a demo, so 1795 01:16:36,319 --> 01:16:38,119 maybe I'll even give that a go. But yeah, really 1796 01:16:38,159 --> 01:16:41,199 cool idea. I'm into this, so it's kind of fun, 1797 01:16:41,239 --> 01:16:42,920 little exciting thing to kind of just see on this 1798 01:16:42,960 --> 01:16:45,479 game and former list here. And then on the day after, 1799 01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:49,439 on the eighteenth, is Deadpool VR coming out, so just 1800 01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:52,279 kind of maybe the highest profile VR game of the year, 1801 01:16:52,760 --> 01:16:54,520 which doesn't feel like it's saying a whole lot. It's 1802 01:16:54,520 --> 01:16:56,319 just like the fact that it's an IP game. We'll 1803 01:16:56,319 --> 01:16:59,359 see what happens with this one. I don't know. I 1804 01:16:59,359 --> 01:17:02,000 hope it's great. People love VR, but I just don't ever. 1805 01:17:02,640 --> 01:17:04,600 I just don't see VR getting ever bigger than it 1806 01:17:04,640 --> 01:17:06,520 is now. I kind of feel like it peaked already, 1807 01:17:06,520 --> 01:17:09,159 which is not super telling because it's not huge in 1808 01:17:09,159 --> 01:17:12,800 its current state, but anyway, that's coming out. And then 1809 01:17:12,800 --> 01:17:15,039 a couple of days after that is Kirby Air Riders, 1810 01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:17,840 which after that showcase talked with the Kirkling about this 1811 01:17:17,960 --> 01:17:20,680 last week. I think the game looks amazing. I really 1812 01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:22,560 really want to play it. If it came out prior 1813 01:17:22,560 --> 01:17:24,039 to the twenty four hour stream, I might have just 1814 01:17:24,079 --> 01:17:25,920 impulse bought it so we could play it there. The 1815 01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:28,560 fact that it's not, and then I have to wait 1816 01:17:28,560 --> 01:17:30,119 a whole year to play on the stream. I don't 1817 01:17:30,119 --> 01:17:32,159 know if I'm gonna picking this one up, but I 1818 01:17:32,239 --> 01:17:33,600 really do want to play it at some point. I 1819 01:17:33,600 --> 01:17:35,119 just don't think it's gonna be a day one purchase 1820 01:17:35,159 --> 01:17:37,000 for me. Maybe when vouchers come back, maybe if it 1821 01:17:37,039 --> 01:17:39,520 goes on sales someday, which it probably won't. But yeah, 1822 01:17:39,600 --> 01:17:42,119 Kirby air Riders looks really great. I just don't see 1823 01:17:42,159 --> 01:17:47,399 myself diving into this one that takes us to December. 1824 01:17:47,439 --> 01:17:51,319 We're almost done here. Oked about Traveler Zero. It's coming 1825 01:17:51,319 --> 01:17:53,560 out December fourth. Another game that looks looks cool. I'm 1826 01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:56,439 gonna play it someday, but not on December fourth, you know, 1827 01:17:56,600 --> 01:17:58,119 I self to Get To two, which is on Game 1828 01:17:58,159 --> 01:18:01,000 Pass right now, so a little behind my series right now, 1829 01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:02,159 but I do like some of the things that are 1830 01:18:02,159 --> 01:18:04,600 doing there. And then the two BN nown sequence is 1831 01:18:04,640 --> 01:18:07,720 pretty long. Let me see, let me see what's in 1832 01:18:07,720 --> 01:18:09,119 the two b now. So this means that these games 1833 01:18:09,119 --> 01:18:10,960 are supposed to come out this year, but they just 1834 01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:14,119 don't have our release date yet. One for me, Coffee 1835 01:18:14,159 --> 01:18:16,199 Talk Tokyo. I really like the other two Coffee Talk games, 1836 01:18:16,199 --> 01:18:18,600 so I'd probably picked that one up. Dead Steve Drives 1837 01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:20,399 a game that's been on my radar forever and it's 1838 01:18:20,439 --> 01:18:22,119 just never getting in a release date. So we'll see 1839 01:18:22,159 --> 01:18:30,119 what happens there. We've got a bunch of ports. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 1840 01:18:30,359 --> 01:18:33,159 We have High oh yeah, High Role Warriors Age of Imprisonment. 1841 01:18:33,640 --> 01:18:37,319 That Highrold Warriors sequel for the Switch to still doesn't 1842 01:18:37,319 --> 01:18:38,840 have a release date, which is kind of weird. There's 1843 01:18:38,840 --> 01:18:41,359 been another rumor last week that there's gonna be a 1844 01:18:41,359 --> 01:18:45,000 September Direct early September Direct, which would presumably show off 1845 01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:47,039 the High Rolled Warriors release date as well as Metro 1846 01:18:47,119 --> 01:18:50,720 Prime four. So I mean, that would make the most 1847 01:18:50,760 --> 01:18:52,479 sense if those games are still supposed to be coming 1848 01:18:52,479 --> 01:18:55,159 out this year, so we'll see if that happens. But yeah, 1849 01:18:55,199 --> 01:19:01,880 hopefully that is the case. And Marvel Cosmic Invasion very 1850 01:19:01,880 --> 01:19:03,279 scity for that game. That's the Day one for me. 1851 01:19:03,359 --> 01:19:05,039 Hopefully it does still come out this year because I 1852 01:19:05,079 --> 01:19:07,159 put it on my draft, so I'm I'm really pulling 1853 01:19:07,159 --> 01:19:08,600 for it to come out this year, and it's gonna 1854 01:19:08,600 --> 01:19:09,640 be a Day one for me. I think the game 1855 01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:14,680 looks great. We got the Mortal Kombat Legacy Collection. I 1856 01:19:14,720 --> 01:19:16,720 think that looks really solid as well. I'll pick that 1857 01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:22,640 up someday. Pony Island two, I don't think that's coming 1858 01:19:22,640 --> 01:19:23,880 out this year. I think that's gonna be kicked to 1859 01:19:23,920 --> 01:19:28,359 next year. Could be wrong, though. Let's see Resident Evil 1860 01:19:28,399 --> 01:19:30,680 Survival Unit. Oh it's a phone game. Okay, I don't 1861 01:19:30,680 --> 01:19:32,039 know if I need to play that one. I was like, 1862 01:19:32,079 --> 01:19:35,560 what is this game? I've never heard of. Skate Story 1863 01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:36,840 is supposed to come out this year. We'll see if 1864 01:19:36,880 --> 01:19:41,720 that happens. A little skate competitor there. Star Trek Infection Okay, 1865 01:19:41,760 --> 01:19:43,760 that's another VR game. I was like, what the heck 1866 01:19:43,800 --> 01:19:46,439 is Star Trek and Infection. Sometimes you just see games 1867 01:19:46,439 --> 01:19:47,600 on here. It's like, I've never heard of this in 1868 01:19:47,640 --> 01:19:54,479 my life. I'm not seeing much else here, Taylor. Was 1869 01:19:54,560 --> 01:19:57,079 anything I skipped past that you are interested in anything 1870 01:19:57,159 --> 01:19:57,880 on your radar? 1871 01:20:00,479 --> 01:20:03,920 Speaker 2: No, I mean I was coasting through, and I mean 1872 01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:07,239 I think you covered the heavy hitters. I mean Battlefield 1873 01:20:07,319 --> 01:20:10,359 six is big on there. Jurassic World Survive or not 1874 01:20:10,439 --> 01:20:13,399 Jurassic World for our Jurassic Parks Survival. There's still nothing 1875 01:20:13,560 --> 01:20:15,760 on that. I saw that you did a little reel 1876 01:20:16,119 --> 01:20:18,079 the other day where they're just talking about creating the 1877 01:20:18,119 --> 01:20:20,720 locations and kind of keeping it as accurate as possible 1878 01:20:20,760 --> 01:20:24,479 to the the franchise. And that's really the only thing 1879 01:20:24,520 --> 01:20:27,840 I've heard about with this game. Nothing else. And I 1880 01:20:27,920 --> 01:20:30,039 was hoping that we would see a release this year. 1881 01:20:30,079 --> 01:20:33,399 It's a time with Rebirth's theatrical release. 1882 01:20:33,439 --> 01:20:36,439 Speaker 1: But okay, yeah, no, at this point, I feel like, yeah, 1883 01:20:36,439 --> 01:20:40,159 if they have Evolution coming out early, like late this year, 1884 01:20:40,199 --> 01:20:43,079 maybe maybe kick that give those a bit of space. Yeah, 1885 01:20:43,159 --> 01:20:47,199 I think that could make sense, you know. Okay, Yeah, 1886 01:20:47,239 --> 01:20:48,840 I think I just want to ask you a couple 1887 01:20:49,039 --> 01:20:52,239 questions here, so like switch to and it sounds like, well, 1888 01:20:52,279 --> 01:20:54,479 like I saidn't strictly ask you about Metroid, but are 1889 01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:56,199 you you're you're not a Metro. You're not picking that 1890 01:20:56,199 --> 01:20:56,960 one up, right. 1891 01:20:57,359 --> 01:21:00,199 Speaker 2: Not picking it up. But I'm hoping my draft I'll 1892 01:21:00,199 --> 01:21:02,239 pick it up. Hi met a critics score. 1893 01:21:02,640 --> 01:21:05,159 Speaker 1: So is there any any other switch to games that 1894 01:21:05,239 --> 01:21:06,479 you're gonna be buying this year? 1895 01:21:08,479 --> 01:21:11,199 Speaker 2: No, I honestly, I might see if I can borrow 1896 01:21:11,239 --> 01:21:13,760 Bonanza from Travis, But this is nothing really calling my 1897 01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:17,279 name to purchase. I what it'll call my name is 1898 01:21:17,319 --> 01:21:19,920 a new mainline Mario game. Get a Mario Maker three 1899 01:21:20,159 --> 01:21:21,920 out there, let's go. 1900 01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:24,479 Speaker 1: Yeah. I didn't want to bring that up because it 1901 01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:28,960 is the fortieth year anniversary of Mario as a character, 1902 01:21:29,439 --> 01:21:32,840 which you know, normally wouldn't necessarily be I think it's forty. 1903 01:21:32,880 --> 01:21:35,680 I can think I'm right on that, which normally wouldn't 1904 01:21:35,680 --> 01:21:38,239 be like that big of a deal. But for the 1905 01:21:38,279 --> 01:21:40,960 thirty fifth anniversary, they did all sorts of stuff, you know, 1906 01:21:41,039 --> 01:21:43,199 they released like the All Stars Collection, they had Super 1907 01:21:43,199 --> 01:21:46,119 Mario thirty five, they had like, I don't know, probably 1908 01:21:46,159 --> 01:21:50,159 like other merch things as well. And we haven't got 1909 01:21:50,560 --> 01:21:53,800 anything this year really for Mario. So I guess Mario 1910 01:21:53,920 --> 01:21:56,000 Kart World, which is a good one, that is a 1911 01:21:56,000 --> 01:21:59,560 big point for Mario getting an anniversary thing. But a 1912 01:21:59,600 --> 01:22:02,720 lot of people are speculating that September direct would feature 1913 01:22:02,800 --> 01:22:07,279 some Mario forour your Anniversary stuff, So we'll see if 1914 01:22:07,319 --> 01:22:09,359 that happens. But I don't know if anything would actually 1915 01:22:09,399 --> 01:22:11,399 come out this year though I think it might, like 1916 01:22:11,439 --> 01:22:13,920 a Mario Maker could get announced, but it's like a 1917 01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:15,399 early next year kind of thing, because this is the 1918 01:22:15,399 --> 01:22:17,039 movie supposed to come out next year, the sequel. 1919 01:22:17,920 --> 01:22:20,960 Speaker 2: I don't know the release date. I'm so really with 1920 01:22:20,960 --> 01:22:23,640 the fact that All Stars came out five years ago. 1921 01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:25,319 That is a shocker to me. 1922 01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:30,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, that is that. I feel like my math sounds off. 1923 01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:32,800 That seems kind of crazy, but I don't know. That 1924 01:22:32,840 --> 01:22:33,600 might be right. 1925 01:22:34,239 --> 01:22:36,199 Speaker 2: And it was only out for three months, right, that's 1926 01:22:36,239 --> 01:22:38,199 what they did three months. 1927 01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:39,920 Speaker 1: And then they didn't say a fire emblowing was super weird. 1928 01:22:40,199 --> 01:22:42,279 But yeah, like it seems like they would want to 1929 01:22:42,279 --> 01:22:44,039 do something, but if they don't have anything ready, they 1930 01:22:44,039 --> 01:22:45,560 don't have anything ready. I mean, the only thing that's 1931 01:22:45,560 --> 01:22:49,439 like an easy layup is you know, obviously a remake 1932 01:22:49,520 --> 01:22:52,039 remaster thing, which I don't know which they'd have cooking there. 1933 01:22:52,520 --> 01:22:56,319 The other thing, of course, could be Mario Kart World courses. 1934 01:22:56,359 --> 01:22:58,399 I think that's definitely happening, and we haven't had any 1935 01:22:58,479 --> 01:23:00,279 inkling of that yet, but I think by the time 1936 01:23:00,359 --> 01:23:03,600 September rolls around, which has rolled around now, but like 1937 01:23:03,640 --> 01:23:05,119 you know, in the next couple of weeks, if that 1938 01:23:05,159 --> 01:23:08,239 direct does happen, I could definitely see them announcing the 1939 01:23:08,239 --> 01:23:11,279 first wave of DLC. I've you know, speculated that's like 1940 01:23:11,319 --> 01:23:14,600 Donkey Kong Bonanza theme stuff, So we'll see if that happens. 1941 01:23:15,119 --> 01:23:16,399 I think that would be an easy layup, but I 1942 01:23:16,399 --> 01:23:17,760 don't really know what else there would be. I think 1943 01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:20,439 Mario Maker is a good call out, but I yeah, 1944 01:23:20,479 --> 01:23:21,960 I don't know if they announced that and it comes 1945 01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:26,800 out this year, because like Kirby Metroid High Rule Warriors, 1946 01:23:27,239 --> 01:23:31,159 I guess there's room for one more big Nintendo release, 1947 01:23:31,199 --> 01:23:32,680 but I don't know if they want to overwhelm it. 1948 01:23:32,680 --> 01:23:33,920 But I also feel like, you know, it's their first 1949 01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:35,479 year of the Switch too, they should try and roll 1950 01:23:35,479 --> 01:23:38,880 out a bunch of big, spicy things. I don't even know. 1951 01:23:39,119 --> 01:23:40,920 It's like, is Mario Maker a thing that would have 1952 01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:43,239 to be locked to a switch to? Like, wouldn't that 1953 01:23:43,279 --> 01:23:44,399 make sense for a switch? 1954 01:23:44,399 --> 01:23:46,000 Speaker 2: One would make sense release. 1955 01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:47,439 Speaker 1: I don't know if they want to do that. Also, man, 1956 01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:49,159 I just thought it was now Mario Maker with the 1957 01:23:49,159 --> 01:23:52,640 mouse controls really great, right, make level a lot easier. 1958 01:23:52,680 --> 01:23:54,760 So maybe that's how they sell it. It's like, oh, 1959 01:23:54,760 --> 01:23:56,119 this has to be able to switch to because you 1960 01:23:56,319 --> 01:23:57,359 need the mouse controls. 1961 01:23:57,600 --> 01:24:01,560 Speaker 2: I think that there's there's room. First a surprise, because 1962 01:24:01,560 --> 01:24:03,760 I was just googling here and it's like, okay, Super 1963 01:24:03,800 --> 01:24:05,720 Mario three D All Starts was announced by Nintendo in 1964 01:24:05,760 --> 01:24:11,079 September third, and then they during the presentation they announced 1965 01:24:11,520 --> 01:24:14,359 for their thirty fifth anniversary, they announced that D D 1966 01:24:14,479 --> 01:24:19,359 D it was coming out September eighteenth, right just shortly after. 1967 01:24:19,520 --> 01:24:22,640 So it was to say, you know, we're still September 1968 01:24:22,680 --> 01:24:25,760 one today. If they do a presentation because their thirty 1969 01:24:25,760 --> 01:24:31,880 fifth anniversary or sorry, their fortieth aniversary is on September thirteenth, 1970 01:24:32,359 --> 01:24:34,079 so any point in time now we can have a 1971 01:24:34,079 --> 01:24:35,439 show and they could be like, oh, and you know 1972 01:24:35,479 --> 01:24:37,560 what a week later, two weeks later, boom, you're getting 1973 01:24:37,560 --> 01:24:39,680 Mario Maker three, or you're getting a new title, something 1974 01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:40,079 like that. 1975 01:24:40,199 --> 01:24:43,039 Speaker 1: So I mean, even like in the case of metrocriv four, 1976 01:24:43,199 --> 01:24:47,319 like a huge sequel for a series that's been long dormant, 1977 01:24:47,359 --> 01:24:49,760 it's been developed for a million years coming out this year. 1978 01:24:50,039 --> 01:24:51,520 This year only has three more months and we don't 1979 01:24:51,520 --> 01:24:53,920 even know when that is yet, so obviously, sometimes Nintendo 1980 01:24:54,039 --> 01:24:56,279 is pretty fast and loosed, like even like their recent directs, 1981 01:24:56,319 --> 01:24:58,439 they announced them like a day before they happen, right 1982 01:24:58,439 --> 01:25:00,479 like they just kind of do that sometimes. And they 1983 01:25:00,520 --> 01:25:04,039 even did that with the Metro Prime remaster. They that 1984 01:25:04,119 --> 01:25:06,439 was a shadow drop, it wasn't a direct, came out 1985 01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:08,359 that day, and then like they're like, oh, yeah, physical 1986 01:25:08,439 --> 01:25:09,960 is gonna come out later, but you can buy digitally 1987 01:25:10,039 --> 01:25:12,680 right now, So you're right, Like, Nintendo is pretty fast 1988 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:15,199 and loose with their release dates. Sometimes I just feel 1989 01:25:15,199 --> 01:25:17,279 like for a big Mario thing, you want to judge 1990 01:25:17,319 --> 01:25:18,920 it up a little bit. But yeah, maybe that's like 1991 01:25:19,079 --> 01:25:21,359 when they do the runaway, like here's some smaller thing, 1992 01:25:21,399 --> 01:25:23,720 a Mario thirty five type thing, or like a remaster 1993 01:25:23,880 --> 01:25:29,159 bundle situation. What if, Taylor, what if Mario Maker three 1994 01:25:30,399 --> 01:25:33,640 is Mario Maker three D and you can make three 1995 01:25:33,760 --> 01:25:34,760 D Mario levels? 1996 01:25:35,119 --> 01:25:35,439 Speaker 2: Wow? 1997 01:25:35,640 --> 01:25:38,039 Speaker 1: And maybe that's why, maybe they it's why they didn't 1998 01:25:38,079 --> 01:25:41,319 do Odyssey two and they did Bonanza two because the 1999 01:25:41,319 --> 01:25:44,960 next three D Mario Maker Mario Makers, you make three D. 2000 01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:48,880 Speaker 2: Levels, Uh, I wouldn't put it out of the realm 2001 01:25:48,880 --> 01:25:51,640 of possibility. That would be an absolute game changer. I 2002 01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:54,560 just I mean, you'd be be a time sync. You'd 2003 01:25:54,560 --> 01:25:56,880 be spending so much time building these levels, and like, 2004 01:25:57,039 --> 01:25:59,479 I couldn't even imagine if you give me the ability 2005 01:25:59,520 --> 01:26:03,600 to make like Mario Sunshine styled levels, Oh my god, 2006 01:26:03,840 --> 01:26:04,800 I for. 2007 01:26:04,800 --> 01:26:07,680 Speaker 1: Me even just even if I don't make a single level. 2008 01:26:07,760 --> 01:26:09,840 But just the fact that oh I can download people's 2009 01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:12,800 levels that they make in here is a million times 2010 01:26:12,800 --> 01:26:14,960 to me more satisfying than like, Okay, I've played a 2011 01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:17,760 lot of two D Mario games and other platforms, but like, 2012 01:26:18,119 --> 01:26:21,199 have a just let the community make really great three 2013 01:26:21,279 --> 01:26:21,680 D levels. 2014 01:26:21,720 --> 01:26:26,159 Speaker 2: I think they're getting custom boss battles too, with like 2015 01:26:26,199 --> 01:26:28,520 the all the cool unique three D bosses we face 2016 01:26:28,600 --> 01:26:31,000 all the time. Yeah, and if they. 2017 01:26:30,880 --> 01:26:36,800 Speaker 1: Do that ten billion dollars and I three months water 2018 01:26:36,880 --> 01:26:40,800 Maker three comes out, I don't think I need it personally. 2019 01:26:41,239 --> 01:26:43,640 The only one I have is on we you Like, 2020 01:26:43,640 --> 01:26:46,520 I'm not playing that game anymore. If they if they 2021 01:26:46,520 --> 01:26:48,880 did a three D version of that, I pay two 2022 01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:50,800 hundred dollars for that. I I would love that. I 2023 01:26:50,800 --> 01:26:52,520 think that would be so great, especially because I didn't 2024 01:26:52,520 --> 01:26:53,960 really love the Odyssey, so it's been a while since 2025 01:26:53,960 --> 01:26:56,640 I've really fallen in love with a three D Mario game. 2026 01:26:56,640 --> 01:26:58,439 But like put that in the hands of the community 2027 01:26:58,479 --> 01:27:01,000 obviously kind of would make some rebake levels in there, 2028 01:27:01,000 --> 01:27:03,840 so you'd get some Mario levels as well. Goddamn. I 2029 01:27:03,880 --> 01:27:06,000 hope I will that into existence because that would be 2030 01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:07,399 beautiful if they made that happen. 2031 01:27:07,479 --> 01:27:07,720 Speaker 2: M h. 2032 01:27:08,520 --> 01:27:10,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. And if that did release, I would would be 2033 01:27:10,760 --> 01:27:12,600 another huge release for this year. That would be a 2034 01:27:12,640 --> 01:27:15,159 crazy announcement for the fortieth year, pairwell with the movie 2035 01:27:15,159 --> 01:27:18,000 release next year if that when it's coming out. So yeah, 2036 01:27:18,039 --> 01:27:19,319 that all would be very cool. 2037 01:27:20,159 --> 01:27:23,119 Speaker 2: U fun little thing here the AI overview is like 2038 01:27:23,239 --> 01:27:27,079 possible possibilities discussed include a new three D Mario game, 2039 01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:31,079 Mario Galaxy one and two collection, a Super Mario Bros. 2040 01:27:31,079 --> 01:27:34,640 Wonder sequel, or a new remake of the original Super 2041 01:27:34,680 --> 01:27:38,119 Mario Bros. Game. So that that would be pretty cool. Wow. 2042 01:27:39,039 --> 01:27:40,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess the thought of like remaking the first 2043 01:27:41,520 --> 01:27:44,880 Mario it's almost like so old but like still kind 2044 01:27:44,920 --> 01:27:47,279 of perfect in a way that like I don't know 2045 01:27:47,319 --> 01:27:48,880 if you need to do that, and I feel like 2046 01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:51,000 Mario Maker is kind of a way to keep that 2047 01:27:51,119 --> 01:27:54,520 those levels alive. And also what do they do ans 2048 01:27:54,520 --> 01:27:56,720 World Championship or whatever where they have like weird little 2049 01:27:56,800 --> 01:27:59,520 challenges within that, so I feel like it's been kept fresh, 2050 01:27:59,560 --> 01:28:01,880 and even Mario thirty five is like using those levels 2051 01:28:01,880 --> 01:28:03,960 in like a new engaging way. So I don't know 2052 01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:06,159 if they'd go that route and the other ones, like wonder, 2053 01:28:06,199 --> 01:28:08,359 I think will happen, but it'll happen in the switch 2054 01:28:08,359 --> 01:28:11,399 to his life cycle, but not soon because I feel 2055 01:28:11,399 --> 01:28:14,039 like they'd go three D Mario next. And then sorry, 2056 01:28:14,079 --> 01:28:16,640 what were the other pitches? There was a Mario Galaxy 2057 01:28:16,680 --> 01:28:18,239 one in two, which makes sense because even the three 2058 01:28:18,319 --> 01:28:21,560 D All Stars didn't have Galaxy two in there for whatever. Yeah, 2059 01:28:21,600 --> 01:28:24,600 and that's still not been released on the on the 2060 01:28:24,640 --> 01:28:26,000 switch at all, which is strange. 2061 01:28:26,760 --> 01:28:29,319 Speaker 2: And then the other original Super Mario Bros. Remake. 2062 01:28:30,920 --> 01:28:32,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, do you think they would do like another Mario 2063 01:28:32,680 --> 01:28:35,039 thirty five thing, like just re skin that thirty five 2064 01:28:35,119 --> 01:28:37,239 one call it Mario forty now, because that's like they 2065 01:28:37,239 --> 01:28:39,359 took that off the service. You can't play that game anymore, 2066 01:28:39,479 --> 01:28:41,560 but like bring it back, add some new features to it. 2067 01:28:41,840 --> 01:28:43,520 I could see them doing that and make it like, hey, 2068 01:28:43,520 --> 01:28:45,039 every five years, we bring this game out of the 2069 01:28:45,079 --> 01:28:47,159 vault Disney style. I don't think Disney does that anymore 2070 01:28:47,159 --> 01:28:49,279 with their movies, but like the way they kind of 2071 01:28:49,319 --> 01:28:50,199 did that back in the day. 2072 01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:52,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I could see them doing something like that. 2073 01:28:52,960 --> 01:28:57,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, okay, uh interesting, Yeah, man, I if that 2074 01:28:57,439 --> 01:29:01,640 direct had You know, it's hard. So many direct rooms occur, 2075 01:29:01,800 --> 01:29:04,279 and they're so often more often than not wrong in 2076 01:29:04,399 --> 01:29:06,119 terms of like when the dates these things actually happen. 2077 01:29:06,159 --> 01:29:08,319 But I do think with higher Rule and Metroid need 2078 01:29:08,399 --> 01:29:10,960 in a release date, we are bound for that now. Obviously, 2079 01:29:11,279 --> 01:29:14,239 other release dates just get announced on like Nintendo today, 2080 01:29:14,279 --> 01:29:16,159 like that app that they released earlier this year, So 2081 01:29:16,439 --> 01:29:18,840 who knows what they do, But give me something like 2082 01:29:18,840 --> 01:29:23,039 that Mario fortieth year anniversary special stuff, Mario Kart World updates, 2083 01:29:23,159 --> 01:29:26,479 those two release dates, a new trailer for Kirby Air Riders, 2084 01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:29,600 like it's pretty spicy direct like that. That's a lot 2085 01:29:29,600 --> 01:29:33,800 of content to chew on there. My last question for 2086 01:29:33,840 --> 01:29:35,880 you with this release calendar stuff is you know, obviously 2087 01:29:35,960 --> 01:29:38,680 we're just I guess three months away now from Game 2088 01:29:38,720 --> 01:29:40,840 Awards Game of the Year sort of stuff. What do 2089 01:29:40,840 --> 01:29:44,279 you think the five Game of the Year nominees are 2090 01:29:44,279 --> 01:29:46,159 going to be? Just, you know, doing a prediction three 2091 01:29:46,159 --> 01:29:48,039 months out early. What are we looking at right now? 2092 01:29:48,079 --> 01:29:50,560 I feel like Hollow Night, I assume will be good 2093 01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:52,000 enough to make it in that mix, and it's an 2094 01:29:52,039 --> 01:29:55,479 indie game that transcends enough to be in that conversation. 2095 01:29:56,119 --> 01:29:58,359 I think Claire ob Security Expedion thirty three is in 2096 01:29:58,359 --> 01:30:01,319 there one hundred percent. What do you feel like fills 2097 01:30:01,319 --> 01:30:02,800 out that that top five? 2098 01:30:04,720 --> 01:30:11,279 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, I'll I'll just be biased and I'll 2099 01:30:11,279 --> 01:30:13,560 throw Battlefield six out there. I think there's a strong 2100 01:30:14,279 --> 01:30:16,319 I think there's potentially I think there's a lot. 2101 01:30:16,800 --> 01:30:17,239 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2102 01:30:17,319 --> 01:30:21,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Ghost of Yo Tai probably squeaks in there. Yes, 2103 01:30:21,720 --> 01:30:22,600 that's another good one. 2104 01:30:22,680 --> 01:30:28,760 Speaker 1: Yeah maybe Bonanza. Critics love Bonanza. I don't think World 2105 01:30:28,920 --> 01:30:30,960 is squeaking in there. That's best family game written all 2106 01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:33,680 over it. But I think I would see. 2107 01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:36,840 Speaker 2: World in there. Yeah, yeah, Bonanza is a good pick 2108 01:30:36,880 --> 01:30:37,439 for sure. 2109 01:30:38,880 --> 01:30:42,560 Speaker 1: I don't think Portland's four is uh over the needle. 2110 01:30:42,880 --> 01:30:46,079 Civilization seven is not moving the needle, Monster Hunter Wilds. 2111 01:30:46,199 --> 01:30:48,920 I don't think it was quite what people were looking for, 2112 01:30:48,960 --> 01:30:52,199 so I don't think that's squeaking in their Split Fiction 2113 01:30:52,359 --> 01:30:54,880 could be one if we're talking about you know, the 2114 01:30:54,960 --> 01:30:56,560 last time the studio released a game, it was a 2115 01:30:56,600 --> 01:30:58,840 Game of the Year winner It takes two, and now 2116 01:30:58,840 --> 01:31:01,079 Split Fiction is a game that's over ninety on Metacritic. 2117 01:31:01,079 --> 01:31:07,199 I think so people love it, and I'm trying to 2118 01:31:07,239 --> 01:31:11,800 think there's another big boy that I'm forgetting about. I mean, 2119 01:31:11,840 --> 01:31:15,560 Blueprint's good indie gym, but I don't think it's top 2120 01:31:15,640 --> 01:31:24,199 five game of the year. Uh status, mm hmmm. A 2121 01:31:24,199 --> 01:31:26,319 lot of it hinges on if Hollow Night makes it, 2122 01:31:26,319 --> 01:31:28,920 but I think my five would be Expedition thirty three. 2123 01:31:28,920 --> 01:31:32,119 Hollow Night goes to Vito Ti Split Fiction, and I'll 2124 01:31:32,159 --> 01:31:36,119 throw Donkey Kong in there now because even Metroid I 2125 01:31:36,239 --> 01:31:39,680 just I just don't know if that's gonna be that 2126 01:31:39,880 --> 01:31:41,560 quality of a game. We'll have to wait and see. 2127 01:31:41,640 --> 01:31:43,960 Speaker 2: That's what I'm hearing with everyone just not being sure. 2128 01:31:44,520 --> 01:31:45,239 But I think think. 2129 01:31:45,199 --> 01:31:47,680 Speaker 1: Anything that that in Donkey Kong, only one of them 2130 01:31:47,680 --> 01:31:49,039 makes it in Like, I don't think both of them 2131 01:31:49,039 --> 01:31:49,880 are squeaking in there. 2132 01:31:50,199 --> 01:31:52,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, your clear obscure pick is definitely in there, for sure. 2133 01:31:52,960 --> 01:31:55,359 I've never heard anyone say anything bad, that's all. 2134 01:31:55,399 --> 01:31:58,399 Speaker 1: That's even potentially the just the winner, I think, but 2135 01:31:58,479 --> 01:32:01,159 it's one hundred percent of log for top m M 2136 01:32:01,680 --> 01:32:03,640 and then yeah, I mean any surprise releases, Like I 2137 01:32:03,640 --> 01:32:05,479 don't think Sony has another big release. I think they're 2138 01:32:05,520 --> 01:32:07,279 really focusing on Ghost of Yo Tie and then some 2139 01:32:07,279 --> 01:32:11,479 of their smaller stuff. Xbox. You know they've keeper, They've 2140 01:32:11,560 --> 01:32:14,720 Ninja Guided in Outer Worlds too, they'd avowed this year, 2141 01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:16,000 but like, I don't. I don't think any of their 2142 01:32:16,039 --> 01:32:19,880 games are you know, squeaking in any any new announcements. 2143 01:32:20,199 --> 01:32:23,000 So I think if Nintendo does anything at this direct, 2144 01:32:23,119 --> 01:32:25,720 that would be maybe a potential, especially if it's a 2145 01:32:25,720 --> 01:32:27,600 big switch to game people feel like they want a 2146 01:32:27,600 --> 01:32:31,640 bit more switch to quality considering that consoles still kind 2147 01:32:31,680 --> 01:32:34,680 of fresh. So yeah, that's what I'm thinking right now. 2148 01:32:35,039 --> 01:32:37,039 Do you have any controversial other ones to throw in 2149 01:32:37,039 --> 01:32:38,199 the mix there? Or was that kind of a good 2150 01:32:38,239 --> 01:32:38,640 top five? 2151 01:32:38,840 --> 01:32:40,720 Speaker 2: I think that's a good top five. I can't see 2152 01:32:40,720 --> 01:32:43,359 anything else really that stands out to me. 2153 01:32:43,800 --> 01:32:46,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, fair enough, Okay, cool? That was that was a 2154 01:32:47,000 --> 01:32:49,560 good look. I mean that was a very zoomed in 2155 01:32:49,640 --> 01:32:52,119 microscopic lens. Like there's so many other things coming out. 2156 01:32:52,119 --> 01:32:53,840 Even going through this list, there's other things like I 2157 01:32:53,880 --> 01:32:56,199 could have brought up, you know, obviously in that TB 2158 01:32:56,640 --> 01:32:58,880 TBD release date window, a lot of things that just 2159 01:32:58,880 --> 01:33:00,880 don't have dates yet could come out and didn't feel 2160 01:33:00,880 --> 01:33:02,680 like bring them up too much. But yeah, there's a 2161 01:33:02,680 --> 01:33:04,880 lot of potential. I'm excited for this fall. October's gonna 2162 01:33:04,880 --> 01:33:07,000 be crazy. A million games I'm playing that month. Probably 2163 01:33:07,079 --> 01:33:09,720 November I'll still be catching up on those. September is 2164 01:33:09,720 --> 01:33:11,319 a bit quieter, but that's kind of good. Like I'll 2165 01:33:11,359 --> 01:33:13,960 just play some Silk Song, play some hell Divers, just 2166 01:33:14,000 --> 01:33:15,680 kind of finish up the other games I've been playing, 2167 01:33:15,840 --> 01:33:17,920 which I'll talk about in future episodes of side Quest, 2168 01:33:17,920 --> 01:33:22,199 and then yeah, I think November December seems like it's 2169 01:33:22,199 --> 01:33:23,600 pretty light as well, but I kind of like that. 2170 01:33:23,640 --> 01:33:25,439 I like to just kind of finish up my games, 2171 01:33:25,680 --> 01:33:28,079 get into the Game of the Year season, game awards, 2172 01:33:28,119 --> 01:33:29,600 get excited for next year, do the Game of the 2173 01:33:29,640 --> 01:33:31,880 Year episode, and kind of just play whatever heck I want. 2174 01:33:31,960 --> 01:33:34,159 December and not if you've playing new things, so we 2175 01:33:34,199 --> 01:33:37,439 will see what happens there. But Taylor, thank you for 2176 01:33:37,520 --> 01:33:39,079 joining me. This is a really fun episode. Really great 2177 01:33:39,079 --> 01:33:42,000 discussions all around, and yeah, I'll see you in the 2178 01:33:42,600 --> 01:33:44,279 Hellish What is the name of the planet and hell 2179 01:33:44,359 --> 01:33:46,680 Divers that you're cruising in on is it just Earth 2180 01:33:47,159 --> 01:33:47,439 one of. 2181 01:33:47,479 --> 01:33:50,239 Speaker 2: The there's super Earth that you're defending, and then all 2182 01:33:50,279 --> 01:33:54,239 different places. I think right now the Global Community event 2183 01:33:54,359 --> 01:33:55,479 is on Hellmer. 2184 01:33:56,159 --> 01:33:57,000 Speaker 1: Is that different planet? 2185 01:33:57,319 --> 01:34:00,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's different planet. It's on the Termined territory. 2186 01:34:01,119 --> 01:34:03,560 Speaker 1: Wait, I thought all the territories were on the same planet. 2187 01:34:04,640 --> 01:34:06,520 Speaker 2: No, so you have the one and the you have 2188 01:34:06,560 --> 01:34:07,359 the whole soul. 2189 01:34:07,399 --> 01:34:09,920 Speaker 1: I thought you were looking at different parts of the map. 2190 01:34:10,039 --> 01:34:12,439 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, so you're right there. So it's map and 2191 01:34:12,680 --> 01:34:15,079 all just a massive galaxy universe. And so in the 2192 01:34:15,119 --> 01:34:17,760 dead center you got super Earth. That's your home base. 2193 01:34:17,760 --> 01:34:20,199 And so when you branch out from super Earth up 2194 01:34:20,239 --> 01:34:22,239 in the top you got the robots, down below you 2195 01:34:22,319 --> 01:34:24,960 got the illumine, and then the top right you got 2196 01:34:25,000 --> 01:34:28,720 the terminids and you can see like there's different planets 2197 01:34:28,760 --> 01:34:31,880 and they're broken off into like little regions. So you 2198 01:34:31,880 --> 01:34:33,439 go into those regions, you can see, Okay, there's like 2199 01:34:33,439 --> 01:34:35,359 three planets in here, and you can see the status 2200 01:34:35,359 --> 01:34:37,159 of how many hell divers are doing missions on all 2201 01:34:37,159 --> 01:34:39,119 these different planets. You can drop in on those planets, 2202 01:34:39,119 --> 01:34:41,239 and then once you take over those planets, then it 2203 01:34:41,239 --> 01:34:43,840 pushes them back and your region expands. 2204 01:34:44,279 --> 01:34:46,920 Speaker 1: So right, full power. Okay, well, I will see you 2205 01:34:47,399 --> 01:34:50,319 and everyone else on Super Earth. Akay next week. Thank 2206 01:34:50,319 --> 01:34:53,079 you everyone for listening.
