I'm just reading the teleprompter as 10 00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:57.560 it goes. Speaking about the teleprompter, it is scrolling, just 11 00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:01.320 like he is scrolling through the river sticks. I don't 12 00:01:01.320 --> 00:01:03.200 know why I associate him with death, but I think 13 00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:03.840 he likes it. 14 00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:10.719 Bacala, I'm happy to wear that crown. However, is the 15 00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:14.599 head and it is very heavy, don't you know it? 16 00:01:14.599 --> 00:01:19.400 It does nothing but damage to my posture. How how 17 00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:20.959 goes it? Pal uh? 18 00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:22.519 Or what's the heaviest hat you have? 19 00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:29.200 I don't that's a great question. Probably a helmet, a helmet. 20 00:01:29.359 --> 00:01:33.640 Helmet is a helmet? A hat? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yes, hat. 21 00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:37.200 Helmets are hats.

If it goes 24 00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:43.000 over your face, it's not a hat. If it just 25 00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:44.799 covers the top of your head, then the helmet. 26 00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.799 Is a hat. Well, I the helmet, Yeah, they have 27 00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:51.079 like those half helmets, right, or like a motorcycle Yeah, 28 00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:55.120 motorcycle helmet can't be a hat, We can't can't be 29 00:01:55.159 --> 00:01:56.760 a hat?

Yeah yeah, 191 00:09:14.960 --> 00:09:17.559 And it was like, yeah, I know for a fact 192 00:09:17.639 --> 00:09:21.360 Mike definitively did not sleep, and his ability to stay 193 00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:24.759 up is probably like the one takeaway from the trip 194 00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:27.519 that has me the most shook like. 195 00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:30.039 Because he's he's also the person to like he said 196 00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:32.919 to himself first to sleep last to a wake up, 197 00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:35.440 so they also to like that for that to be true, 198 00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:37.200 and then also can stay up the longest. 199 00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:43.440 It's it's surprising, perfectly balanced. I've I've found a way 200 00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:45.919 to make it make sense in my mind because it's 201 00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:49.279 like the inverse of like a bear hibernating and just 202 00:09:49.320 --> 00:09:55.240 sort of like his bear like tendency lost all disciplines. 203 00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:59.080 Like yeah, like I get it. Like the guy who 204 00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:02.679 regularly you will sleep twelve hours can like muster the 205 00:10:02.799 --> 00:10:06.480 twenty four hour strength to stay up. So I get that, 206 00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:09.440 and I guess that's how I've squared it. But I 207 00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:13.399 will say towards the end there, Mike, you fucking scared me. 208 00:10:13.559 --> 00:10:16.039 I mean you scared me just with like what you 209 00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:18.519 were kind of the way you were presenting. It was 210 00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:21.799 a Manati. It was a flavor of Manati that I 211 00:10:21.960 --> 00:10:22.320 was not. 212 00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:26.879 I think back when you were loopy, and I think 213 00:10:27.039 --> 00:10:29.519 Mike Manati Manatti was clinically insane. 214 00:10:29.639 --> 00:10:31.039 Yeah, I think there was a point there where we 215 00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:32.639 could have had him committed. 216 00:10:32.679 --> 00:10:35.720 The number fifty nine took over Mike Manatti and oh. 217 00:10:35.840 --> 00:10:37.840 Was the number that haunts of my family? Yeah, the 218 00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:40.000 power fifty nine. Yeah it was. 219 00:10:40.039 --> 00:10:41.840 I mean, look, look, I was leading in to it 220 00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:44.399 a little bit, but I was definitely pretty loopy, and 221 00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:45.919 it was things just came to my head. 222 00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:46.440 Gosh. 223 00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:49.360 The weirdest one was when I told I told jan 224 00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:52.559 you're nothing but a slept to me now somewhere one, Well, 225 00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:55.320 that's something a friend of mine in the tenth grade 226 00:10:55.399 --> 00:10:57.159 used to say all the time to make me laugh. 227 00:10:57.200 --> 00:10:59.720 And somehow that thing popped up to the front of 228 00:10:59.720 --> 00:11:03.960 my head. Shout outs to Mark Craikcraft's funny guy. You 229 00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:06.559 guys have like that eccentric high school friend who just 230 00:11:06.639 --> 00:11:09.200 kind of did things. I really admired that he was 231 00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:11.039 always like the last day of the month, I wear 232 00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:13.919 a suit to school. Everyone's like, all right, Mark. 233 00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:15.240 You do that? You know that kind of thing? 234 00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:20.200 The kid perchance, No, he wasn't a theater kid. He's like, 235 00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:22.600 he was my star trek buddy. If that if that 236 00:11:23.159 --> 00:11:24.159 helps at all, he was like. 237 00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:28.000 He doesn't, it doesn't help anything. I speaking of help, 238 00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:30.039 I must help my wife get into the house because 239 00:11:30.080 --> 00:11:31.840 I have locked around like a fucking asshole. Ah. 240 00:11:34.679 --> 00:11:37.320 This is incredible. Do you guys know Backlar's offices in 241 00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:42.480 the upstairs. Yes, So we were at Backlar's house and 242 00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:44.879 we go in, and I had been there before, so 243 00:11:44.919 --> 00:11:47.360 of course I started giving his bathroom once. 244 00:11:47.879 --> 00:11:49.799 Yeah, I blew up his bathroom once, that's right. And 245 00:11:49.840 --> 00:11:51.360 then I was like, all right, let's go take a 246 00:11:51.360 --> 00:11:52.440 look at the pinball machines. 247 00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:55.600 That was fun. But then later we were like started 248 00:11:55.600 --> 00:11:56.759 to looking around for real. 249 00:11:56.879 --> 00:11:59.440 And we went upstairs and we walked into Backlar's office, 250 00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:01.720 which had move like one room oversaw. I was a 251 00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:04.080 little bit confused, like, wait, this, this is not how 252 00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:07.080 I remember it. And then Mike comes in and just 253 00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:10.960 cannot believe that his office is on the second floor 254 00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:14.840 and not in the basement. So why was that so surprising? 255 00:12:15.159 --> 00:12:18.399 Chat Did anyone else ever assume that this was a 256 00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:20.960 basement office for some reason? It's not just me. 257 00:12:21.120 --> 00:12:21.639 I don't know. 258 00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:26.159 I was just convinced the entire time I've been doing 259 00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:28.440 caught the Backlard that his office was in the basement. 260 00:12:28.559 --> 00:12:32.320 It just didn't like the destroyed in the discord Mike, 261 00:12:32.360 --> 00:12:34.320 if you looked at his door on the left hand 262 00:12:34.360 --> 00:12:37.759 side of our frame, the daylight hitting. 263 00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:39.799 That wall is so apparent to me. It's like that 264 00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:41.320 has to be a window right there. 265 00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:42.960 I think, I think in the I think in the 266 00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:45.320 old room it wasn't it was darker or something. 267 00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:48.759 Maybe that's what. I don't know for a minute, been 268 00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:51.159 there though, both you. Yeah, Well, the only thing I 269 00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:53.879 do is I did move myself from the corner of 270 00:12:53.919 --> 00:12:56.240 the room into the center of the room, as you 271 00:12:56.240 --> 00:12:59.840 guys know. And I think that's it though, like the light, 272 00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:03.399 there's nothing else there. I mean, I don't have to 273 00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:04.440 tell you, Mike. 274 00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:10.039 Just is it just because uh grub an excuse me? 275 00:13:10.159 --> 00:13:13.440 Dan are in the basement song? Just like putting everybody 276 00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:14.399 in the basements. 277 00:13:14.600 --> 00:13:14.919 I don't know. 278 00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:17.559 You didn't think that, you thought you were the highest 279 00:13:17.639 --> 00:13:22.960 member of I was.

Yeah, folks, we 661 00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:50.720 have been cutting out some of the segments from the 662 00:31:50.720 --> 00:31:53.599 Giant bombiton. You will lose a little bit of the 663 00:31:53.599 --> 00:31:57.240 fluff and banter in between, but we did cut out 664 00:31:57.400 --> 00:31:59.200 the tabletop segment as well as a bunch of the 665 00:31:59.200 --> 00:32:01.200 other segments. They should all be up on the Giant 666 00:32:01.200 --> 00:32:03.839 Bob YouTube right now. I just wanted to call out 667 00:32:05.240 --> 00:32:07.319 us playing this tabletop game because I kind of want 668 00:32:07.319 --> 00:32:11.720 to finish that mission at least, and I agree the question. 669 00:32:11.799 --> 00:32:16.079 Yeah, we have to still save a person or something, right, Yeah. 670 00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:19.400 Whatever, Yeah, you guys figure out the mission stuff.

So Yeah, it 695 00:33:13.519 --> 00:33:15.359 was fine. It worked out great. I think it went 696 00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:17.920 really well. Yeah, it was a ton of fun. 697 00:33:18.279 --> 00:33:20.880 Also shouts out to our friends of Digital Extremes for 698 00:33:20.960 --> 00:33:26.240 a sponsoring that segment. Uh, just like the three of 699 00:33:26.319 --> 00:33:28.759 us were Dispatched to Go Save Someone Jeff Grubb. This 700 00:33:28.920 --> 00:33:33.079 morning you checked out episode one of Dispatch. I'm super 701 00:33:33.079 --> 00:33:35.759 curious about this game because it's blowing up. 702 00:33:36.640 --> 00:33:38.759 Yeah yeah, like something like a million copies sold and 703 00:33:39.480 --> 00:33:43.119 a little bit over a week. I was aware of 704 00:33:43.160 --> 00:33:46.000 it because it has quite the voice cast. Speaking of 705 00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:49.720 tabletop roleplaying games, Critical Role is partly responsible for this game. 706 00:33:50.480 --> 00:33:52.359 Like their their badge comes up as like one of 707 00:33:52.440 --> 00:33:54.759 like when the credits start, it's ad hoc games, which 708 00:33:54.799 --> 00:33:57.400 I believe didn't look into it, but I believe that 709 00:33:57.519 --> 00:34:00.519 is former Telltale people and certainly feels like one of 710 00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:02.799 those games. And then they work together with Critical Role, 711 00:34:02.839 --> 00:34:05.200 who helped to fill out the cast. And I think 712 00:34:05.240 --> 00:34:08.400 that combination and really, like, you know, just the marketing 713 00:34:08.400 --> 00:34:11.840 power of Critical Role. This game just had the attention 714 00:34:12.000 --> 00:34:14.760 of a huge number of people. And then it is 715 00:34:15.079 --> 00:34:18.719 high quality, it's well done, it is quite good. So 716 00:34:18.760 --> 00:34:22.320 I think that those combination of factors helped us get 717 00:34:22.360 --> 00:34:26.000 over the top. I wasn't exactly sure what to expect. 718 00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:28.480 I had a vague idea of sort of a select 719 00:34:28.519 --> 00:34:32.440 your own story sort of thing, and that's certainly what 720 00:34:32.480 --> 00:34:34.719 it is. The setup is you are playing as the 721 00:34:34.880 --> 00:34:39.239 third and a line of Iron Man like superheroes. Your 722 00:34:39.320 --> 00:34:44.320 grandfather created this suit. You had a small fortune to 723 00:34:44.320 --> 00:34:47.280 sort of maintain it. But your character runs out of money, 724 00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:49.639 the suit gets damaged. He doesn't know how to fix it, 725 00:34:49.719 --> 00:34:53.199 so he's got to retire, and then this group approaches him. 726 00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:56.760 It's like with a proposition. It's a pretty lady, blonde 727 00:34:56.800 --> 00:34:59.800 superhero who's kind of flirtatious, and you're like, You're like, 728 00:34:59.800 --> 00:35:01.119 what what's going on here? And she's like, well, I'm 729 00:35:01.119 --> 00:35:03.559 here to offer you a job. Even though they do 730 00:35:03.800 --> 00:35:05.519 kiss or I suppose that's one of the choices you 731 00:35:05.559 --> 00:35:07.519 can make. The idea is they're going to set you 732 00:35:07.639 --> 00:35:11.519 up as a dispatcher to help manage a crew of 733 00:35:11.559 --> 00:35:14.760 superheroes responded to things sort of in real time. Think 734 00:35:14.800 --> 00:35:19.960 the Assassin's Creed Brotherhood mechanic of dispatching assassins out to missions, 735 00:35:19.960 --> 00:35:23.159 but a little bit more engaged. And then if you 736 00:35:23.239 --> 00:35:25.679 do that, they will bring back your suit and make 737 00:35:25.679 --> 00:35:28.840 you a superhero again. So I did the first chapter, 738 00:35:28.960 --> 00:35:31.679 the first episode. This is an episodic game, just liketale 739 00:35:31.960 --> 00:35:35.039 telltales games have been in the past, and I think 740 00:35:35.079 --> 00:35:40.400 that the storytelling the acting, and the sort of the 741 00:35:40.440 --> 00:35:43.639 setup is all super well done, and like the blocking, 742 00:35:43.719 --> 00:35:47.440 the animation of the characters, the visual style all really 743 00:35:47.519 --> 00:35:48.519 jumps off the screen. 744 00:35:48.559 --> 00:35:50.559 It's got a strong. 745 00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:53.760 Cell shaded comic book look, but with a lot of 746 00:35:53.800 --> 00:35:57.280 details still. And then the character designs themselves are just 747 00:35:57.320 --> 00:36:00.840 really strong. Although at this point we have had so 748 00:36:01.079 --> 00:36:04.960 many of these, Hey, the classic superheroes you know and love, 749 00:36:05.199 --> 00:36:07.719 filtered through a different lens, so like here's the stand 750 00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:09.840 in for the Human Torch, and here's the stand in 751 00:36:09.920 --> 00:36:11.880 for the Invisible Woman and all stuff like that. So 752 00:36:12.559 --> 00:36:14.519 it's another one of those. But I'll say this one's 753 00:36:14.559 --> 00:36:17.039 at least on par with like Invincible in terms of 754 00:36:17.079 --> 00:36:21.119 its character designs. The one thing that really stuck out 755 00:36:21.159 --> 00:36:23.519 for me in terms of like, oh this is maybe 756 00:36:23.639 --> 00:36:26.719 a little bit even more engaging than your typical Telltale game. 757 00:36:26.760 --> 00:36:29.079 It has all the you made a choice, you made 758 00:36:29.079 --> 00:36:31.280 a tough choice that now this person's going to remember 759 00:36:31.280 --> 00:36:33.599 that stuff and it's gonna have effects on the story later. 760 00:36:33.679 --> 00:36:35.559 All that stuff is there, But as far as the 761 00:36:35.639 --> 00:36:39.039 dispatching mechanics, it's got this cool thing where like you 762 00:36:39.079 --> 00:36:42.320 have a team of superheroes on the bottom and then 763 00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:44.960 you get a mission, and the mission has a description 764 00:36:45.280 --> 00:36:49.079 of like, hey, you need to be smart and negotiate 765 00:36:49.119 --> 00:36:51.239 with someone, and then maybe you have to like give 766 00:36:51.280 --> 00:36:53.719 a speech, and so you might want to have like 767 00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:57.280 charming abilities. And then the characters have a sort of 768 00:36:57.280 --> 00:37:01.679 one of those pentagonal chart that tracks their power level. 769 00:37:01.920 --> 00:37:02.760 I think the back of. 770 00:37:02.719 --> 00:37:05.199 A Marvel or an X Men card from the nineties, 771 00:37:05.239 --> 00:37:07.840 where it's like your power level, and it's it covers 772 00:37:07.880 --> 00:37:10.920 a certain part of this chart. You don't know what 773 00:37:10.960 --> 00:37:13.199 the mission's going to require, but it's also going to 774 00:37:13.280 --> 00:37:15.880 have a part of that chart that it fills out, 775 00:37:15.920 --> 00:37:18.960 like its requirements. And then so you send out superheroes 776 00:37:19.000 --> 00:37:20.920 that you think are a good fit based on the 777 00:37:21.000 --> 00:37:24.639 written description and based on their abilities, and then once 778 00:37:24.679 --> 00:37:27.519 they get to that mission, you check in on it 779 00:37:27.559 --> 00:37:31.000 and it overlays your hero or if you have two superheroes, 780 00:37:31.159 --> 00:37:34.280 sort of their combined power over that that bar or 781 00:37:34.320 --> 00:37:37.599 that that chart, and then it shows what the mission requires. 782 00:37:38.119 --> 00:37:40.519 And if it completely overlaps, that means you're going to 783 00:37:40.599 --> 00:37:42.800 succeed one hundred percent of the time. But if it 784 00:37:42.800 --> 00:37:45.199 doesn't completely overlap and a little part of it sticks off, 785 00:37:45.320 --> 00:37:48.119 sticks out, it'll tell you were, your percentage chance of succeeding, 786 00:37:48.159 --> 00:37:51.599 and then a little ball will bounce around inside of 787 00:37:51.639 --> 00:37:55.119 the requirement like the skill check, and if it lands 788 00:37:55.119 --> 00:37:58.599 inside of where your heroes cover, you pass, and if 789 00:37:58.599 --> 00:38:00.960 it lands outside of that, you fail. And I just thought, 790 00:38:01.000 --> 00:38:04.079 that's like, ooh, this feels really nice. It's snappy, easy 791 00:38:04.119 --> 00:38:07.360 to understand. It kind of still does the thing that 792 00:38:07.400 --> 00:38:09.760 Telltale games are strong at, where it's like I'm thinking 793 00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:12.920 about the mechanics in my head, I'm reading a description, 794 00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:16.360 I'm making choices based on what I think these characters 795 00:38:16.400 --> 00:38:17.800 can do, and then I get a little bit of 796 00:38:18.199 --> 00:38:21.159 a reflection of that in the game itself, and I 797 00:38:21.239 --> 00:38:24.039 just thought that, hey, this is enough to sort of 798 00:38:24.039 --> 00:38:26.119 put this game a little bit further over the top 799 00:38:26.320 --> 00:38:29.320 compared to the long run of Telltale games, where maybe 800 00:38:29.320 --> 00:38:31.920 that way of doing things grew a little long in 801 00:38:31.920 --> 00:38:32.320 the tooth. 802 00:38:32.719 --> 00:38:34.679 So yeah, I'm quite into it so far. 803 00:38:34.760 --> 00:38:37.119 Yeah, I'm happy you streamed that this morning. Grab I'm 804 00:38:37.159 --> 00:38:39.639 gonna have to go back and check that out. I'm 805 00:38:39.679 --> 00:38:43.239 super interested in this game. I feel like, for as 806 00:38:43.360 --> 00:38:47.440 much superhero content as there is out there, there still 807 00:38:47.519 --> 00:38:50.400 isn't like the best amount of games and based off 808 00:38:50.440 --> 00:38:55.039 of how you're describing this, I need to check this out. Also, 809 00:38:55.239 --> 00:38:58.920 it makes me really miss the Marvel Ultimate Alliance series. 810 00:38:59.599 --> 00:39:02.039 Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was one thing I thought maybe 811 00:39:02.079 --> 00:39:05.599 we would do during Bonton. Maybe another time is due, 812 00:39:05.679 --> 00:39:07.559 like one of the X Men Legends game. Mostly just 813 00:39:07.679 --> 00:39:11.119 that Jan can be Psyclops. That might be a fun 814 00:39:11.159 --> 00:39:13.159 for a player thing to do at some point. 815 00:39:13.079 --> 00:39:15.719 Right, But yeah, yeah, Marvel Heroes was a thing for 816 00:39:15.760 --> 00:39:19.119 a long time. We got stuff like that. I think that, 817 00:39:19.679 --> 00:39:21.840 you know, this is not anything. 818 00:39:21.599 --> 00:39:23.760 Really close to that, but you know, an expression of 819 00:39:23.760 --> 00:39:26.880 like superheros being like, hey, people come to these characters 820 00:39:26.880 --> 00:39:30.199 for the storytelling as a vessel for that. This seems 821 00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:33.519 like a pretty well done version or take on that idea. 822 00:39:33.679 --> 00:39:37.320 Sure, And like I'm still excited about the Wolverine game 823 00:39:37.360 --> 00:39:39.760 coming out next year, But I don't know. When I 824 00:39:39.760 --> 00:39:41.239 think about the X Men, I think of more of 825 00:39:41.719 --> 00:39:44.599 them as a group rather than just someone solo Dollo. 826 00:39:44.760 --> 00:39:49.280 But exciting to hear about Dispatch. This is episodic, Yes. 827 00:39:49.239 --> 00:39:49.960 It's episodic. 828 00:39:50.000 --> 00:39:53.800 It's I think I just like Telltale games of the past, 829 00:39:53.920 --> 00:39:56.800 although I think the release schedule is a little bit 830 00:39:56.880 --> 00:39:59.800 more rapid than you might remember from Telltale where it'd 831 00:39:59.840 --> 00:40:02.559 be like two months between episodes. I think they're doing 832 00:40:02.599 --> 00:40:04.519 two episodes at a time, and they seem to be 833 00:40:04.559 --> 00:40:06.880 coming out every couple of weeks, two episodes every week. 834 00:40:06.920 --> 00:40:09.280 Thank you, Michael O'Leary and chat. 835 00:40:09.320 --> 00:40:10.840 It's like, yeah, I hadn't really kept track of that 836 00:40:10.840 --> 00:40:12.400 because it was like I wasn't even really going to 837 00:40:12.440 --> 00:40:14.400 play this game. And then as it got more and more, 838 00:40:14.400 --> 00:40:16.719 buzz I checked into it, and I think five and 839 00:40:16.800 --> 00:40:18.280 six episodes five and six. 840 00:40:18.119 --> 00:40:20.360 Are out today as this podcast. What's coming out? 841 00:40:20.480 --> 00:40:20.719 Cool? 842 00:40:21.039 --> 00:40:21.280 Cool? 843 00:40:22.760 --> 00:40:28.199 Going from dispatch to extractions, mister Minatti, mister Grubb, and 844 00:40:28.239 --> 00:40:30.320 I believe a couple of other folks yesterday checked out 845 00:40:30.519 --> 00:40:31.719 Arc Raiders. 846 00:40:33.119 --> 00:40:34.000 I'm super curious. 847 00:40:34.079 --> 00:40:34.960 Would I like this game? 848 00:40:36.199 --> 00:40:37.840 Have you played many extraction shooters? 849 00:40:37.920 --> 00:40:40.800 Jan No, but I hear like, if there's one to 850 00:40:40.840 --> 00:40:42.679 get in on the ground floor of the genre, it 851 00:40:42.800 --> 00:40:43.559 may be this one. 852 00:40:43.760 --> 00:40:44.239 It definite. 853 00:40:44.320 --> 00:40:46.880 Yeah, I mean, this is like the newest, spiffiest one. 854 00:40:46.920 --> 00:40:50.400 It's pretty new player friendly. We had Christian who's been 855 00:40:50.400 --> 00:40:53.000 playing a lot of it sort of shurpass us around. 856 00:40:53.760 --> 00:40:55.760 But even if he wasn't there, you know, you have 857 00:40:55.840 --> 00:40:57.840 like these missions that kind of like lead you to 858 00:40:58.039 --> 00:41:01.320 mechanics and you kind of guess, so, yeah, like yeah, 859 00:41:01.360 --> 00:41:04.760 the game just it felt really good. It it looked 860 00:41:05.119 --> 00:41:08.639 really good, and I was getting definitely understanding the loop 861 00:41:08.679 --> 00:41:11.559 where you're just going in and you are just looting things. 862 00:41:11.559 --> 00:41:14.119 And sometimes you're looking for things because oh, I need 863 00:41:14.159 --> 00:41:17.039 to make a weapons station back at my home base 864 00:41:17.119 --> 00:41:20.239 I can make more upgrades, or I need wires for 865 00:41:20.360 --> 00:41:23.000 this quest. And sometimes you're just looking for whatever, may 866 00:41:23.000 --> 00:41:25.760 be hoping to find a really good gun and hope 867 00:41:25.760 --> 00:41:27.519 you can hold onto that as long as possible. And 868 00:41:27.559 --> 00:41:29.679 then there's these arcs, and these are kind of the 869 00:41:29.719 --> 00:41:34.840 AI enemies, computer enemies, and they are machines. There's drones 870 00:41:35.400 --> 00:41:38.079 and those you can kind of take out relatively safely, 871 00:41:38.119 --> 00:41:42.400 but there's really big ones, like these giant four legged walkers, 872 00:41:42.440 --> 00:41:44.559 and it's like, oh, maybe we better just avoid those 873 00:41:44.559 --> 00:41:46.360 guys right now. I don't know if we how that 874 00:41:46.400 --> 00:41:48.719 fight is going to go down. Then there are also 875 00:41:49.079 --> 00:41:52.960 other players, right so you know, sometimes you're gonna fight them, 876 00:41:53.000 --> 00:41:55.239 something's gonna attack you. Sometimes you might just wave them 877 00:41:55.239 --> 00:41:57.400 off and kind of hope for the best. It's not 878 00:41:57.480 --> 00:41:59.519 like a Battle Royale. There even though like so much 879 00:41:59.559 --> 00:42:03.719 of it, like that it's not necessarily about attacking the 880 00:42:03.719 --> 00:42:05.760 other players. I mean, the only benefit to it is 881 00:42:05.760 --> 00:42:07.719 that you get their loot, which may or may not 882 00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:09.199 be all that useful. 883 00:42:09.280 --> 00:42:10.800 There's probably enough loot. 884 00:42:10.719 --> 00:42:12.639 Just in the map for you in a lot of ways, 885 00:42:12.679 --> 00:42:14.760 in terms of stuff you can carry, because you can't 886 00:42:14.760 --> 00:42:15.679 only carry so much. 887 00:42:15.880 --> 00:42:21.559 Yeah, you could see the future of those confrontations where 888 00:42:22.199 --> 00:42:24.440 maybe you didn't want to fight the big walker, so 889 00:42:24.440 --> 00:42:26.519 you'll let that other crew fight it. If they win, 890 00:42:27.079 --> 00:42:29.280 then you attack them when they're done, when they're weak, 891 00:42:29.280 --> 00:42:30.719 and you take the stuff that they might have got 892 00:42:30.719 --> 00:42:33.679 from it, or maybe they get killed taking. 893 00:42:33.480 --> 00:42:35.480 Down the walker, and you finish it off. And it's 894 00:42:35.519 --> 00:42:38.159 like that. You can see the interesting dynamics there. 895 00:42:38.840 --> 00:42:40.559 I'll say that when I was playing, I was like, 896 00:42:40.639 --> 00:42:42.599 this is pretty good, and then when I was done, 897 00:42:43.280 --> 00:42:45.440 I began to I do I feel an itch to 898 00:42:45.480 --> 00:42:48.599 go back, especially hearing it runs really well on the 899 00:42:48.599 --> 00:42:52.320 steam deck, and I think that solo queuing for me 900 00:42:52.400 --> 00:42:54.840 would be pretty fun in this game, where it's like 901 00:42:55.000 --> 00:42:57.639 I'll just like run, I just want to upgrade. 902 00:42:57.280 --> 00:42:57.960 My stuff, you know. 903 00:42:58.039 --> 00:43:01.079 I really enjoyed early on in Call of Duty just 904 00:43:01.159 --> 00:43:03.599 doing the like upgrading my character by playing the game 905 00:43:04.039 --> 00:43:06.480 and unlocking all the weapons and all the gear for 906 00:43:06.519 --> 00:43:09.159 each weapon and stuff like that, and this game being like, well, 907 00:43:09.199 --> 00:43:12.159 that's actually part of the loop of you can go 908 00:43:12.239 --> 00:43:16.320 through the and upgrade your character's home base faster if 909 00:43:16.320 --> 00:43:18.280 you go out and have a good run and get 910 00:43:18.360 --> 00:43:22.880 all this extra you know, mats and materials, and it'say, oh, okay, yeah. 911 00:43:22.719 --> 00:43:23.679 I think I want to do that. 912 00:43:24.079 --> 00:43:27.760 So I'm beginning to understand why the loop is so appealing. 913 00:43:28.159 --> 00:43:29.920 I'll go back another time and let's see if it 914 00:43:29.960 --> 00:43:32.079 really actually sinks its hooks into me. But at the 915 00:43:32.159 --> 00:43:35.400 very least, it's like this one has made the appeal 916 00:43:35.440 --> 00:43:37.199 of extraction shooters apparent to me. 917 00:43:37.440 --> 00:43:37.719 Sure. 918 00:43:37.800 --> 00:43:40.239 Yeah, I did go back to do some solo queuing 919 00:43:40.280 --> 00:43:42.719 when we were done, and I did like that. It's 920 00:43:42.719 --> 00:43:45.599 a bit of a different experience for I think you don't, 921 00:43:45.719 --> 00:43:47.679 you know, And I always like this those battle royalgus 922 00:43:47.760 --> 00:43:49.840 or things like that, you can kind of just go 923 00:43:49.920 --> 00:43:52.079 it's not like, all right, let's make sure we're all together. 924 00:43:52.199 --> 00:43:53.760 Here's what I think we should do. What do you 925 00:43:53.800 --> 00:43:56.039 think we should do? Sort of a thinking, you know, 926 00:43:56.079 --> 00:43:57.920 it's like being at a theme park by yourself instead 927 00:43:57.920 --> 00:44:00.239 of being with a group of people. I have a 928 00:44:00.239 --> 00:44:02.159 little You don't have to have a little committee all 929 00:44:02.199 --> 00:44:04.679 the time. Just you just go on that side. And 930 00:44:04.719 --> 00:44:06.840 even like the interactions with other players seemed a bit 931 00:44:06.840 --> 00:44:08.840 more dynamic, whereas when there's a bunch of us, it 932 00:44:08.920 --> 00:44:11.480 almost it felt a little bit more shoot on site. 933 00:44:11.519 --> 00:44:14.000 Maybe that's just me being trigger happy, I don't know, 934 00:44:14.280 --> 00:44:16.400 but when I was playing by myself, there was more like, Okay, 935 00:44:16.440 --> 00:44:19.079 this person's literally doing an emote that says don't shoot. 936 00:44:19.440 --> 00:44:20.199 I guess I won't. 937 00:44:20.559 --> 00:44:23.000 There's another person just sitting there looting something. 938 00:44:23.199 --> 00:44:28.199 Why not target? Come on? That's what you know. 939 00:44:28.519 --> 00:44:31.440 You hear somebody trying to extract by getting on a subway, 940 00:44:31.679 --> 00:44:33.239 and I'm like, I'm just gonna go down there and 941 00:44:33.239 --> 00:44:35.440 shoot them with a shotgun as they think they're getting 942 00:44:35.440 --> 00:44:37.280 away in the subway. And I do that, and I 943 00:44:37.320 --> 00:44:40.239 feel like a little stinker. But it's fun the game. 944 00:44:41.159 --> 00:44:43.280 When we were playing all of us, it made being 945 00:44:43.280 --> 00:44:45.119 a coward more fun than it's ever been for me. 946 00:44:45.159 --> 00:44:48.159 Because there's one part we were in this hallway kind 947 00:44:48.159 --> 00:44:52.239 of surrounded by these windows looking outside, and on either 948 00:44:52.239 --> 00:44:55.000 side of the hallway. Other teams pincered us and we're shooting, 949 00:44:55.239 --> 00:44:58.199 and before I could even do anything, Jeff and Christian 950 00:44:58.199 --> 00:45:00.480 were down, and I was like, well, there's no way 951 00:45:00.480 --> 00:45:01.760 I'm going to be able to save them. 952 00:45:01.840 --> 00:45:04.519 I'm gonna you just got a new good gun, right. 953 00:45:04.519 --> 00:45:06.599 I had this awesome shotgun. I don't want to lose, 954 00:45:06.599 --> 00:45:09.559 because that's what happens is you lose that loots. I 955 00:45:09.679 --> 00:45:12.599 just like dove through the window and just started running 956 00:45:12.599 --> 00:45:14.840 and let those two teams fight each other and I 957 00:45:14.920 --> 00:45:15.639 got out of there. 958 00:45:15.719 --> 00:45:16.559 So that felt good. 959 00:45:17.480 --> 00:45:20.000 Now, Okay, do you all think this is going to 960 00:45:20.159 --> 00:45:23.719 hurt or help Marathon when it comes out at all? 961 00:45:23.800 --> 00:45:24.679 Hurt big time? 962 00:45:25.239 --> 00:45:27.760 Yeah, hurt. Like this isn't going to be like a 963 00:45:27.760 --> 00:45:31.119 good on wrapper for people to get introduced to like 964 00:45:31.199 --> 00:45:32.199 extraction shooters. 965 00:45:32.599 --> 00:45:33.920 I think it's going to be a good arm right 966 00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:35.840 for people to be introduced to art greaters and to 967 00:45:35.920 --> 00:45:39.679 keep playing that. I don't know, because when I tried Marathon, 968 00:45:39.760 --> 00:45:41.599 that was the first time I try an distraction to shooter, 969 00:45:41.679 --> 00:45:43.360 So maybe just the whole thing was a little weird 970 00:45:43.400 --> 00:45:46.559 to me. I wasn't getting it at all. It didn't, 971 00:45:46.800 --> 00:45:49.880 you know, even though like you know, bungee shooting feels good, 972 00:45:49.880 --> 00:45:52.679 and that was there. I didn't think the enemies were 973 00:45:52.800 --> 00:45:55.119 very interesting. The encounters I was having with the players 974 00:45:55.119 --> 00:45:57.239 didn't feel that good. Even the world itself felt a 975 00:45:57.239 --> 00:46:02.559 little surprisingly flat. The app based stuff is not nearly 976 00:46:02.679 --> 00:46:04.719 as nice as it is in Arc Radors or you 977 00:46:04.719 --> 00:46:07.960 have a real sense of that kind of place right 978 00:46:08.000 --> 00:46:08.679 in setting. 979 00:46:09.480 --> 00:46:10.760 I don't know. Maybe they're doing some. 980 00:46:10.719 --> 00:46:13.960 Work over there, right because they push that thing back. 981 00:46:14.000 --> 00:46:16.239 There's going to be another test at some point. I'm 982 00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:20.039 curious what people think. But I mean, how many of 983 00:46:20.039 --> 00:46:22.320 these kind of teams can there be because we sort 984 00:46:22.320 --> 00:46:24.559 of saw what the Battle Royal is like. Maybe a few, 985 00:46:25.400 --> 00:46:27.599 so maybe there's a room for another one of these. 986 00:46:27.679 --> 00:46:30.519 But I think our Creators is going to be it 987 00:46:30.679 --> 00:46:32.679 for a lot of people. 988 00:46:32.960 --> 00:46:33.400 I don't know. 989 00:46:33.599 --> 00:46:37.400 Yeah, I would think that for Marathon to get a 990 00:46:37.440 --> 00:46:40.239 benefit here, it's going to have to have something that 991 00:46:40.360 --> 00:46:44.119 really sets it apart and makes it feel unique, because 992 00:46:44.639 --> 00:46:46.800 it can't just be like, well, we're super welcoming, so well, 993 00:46:46.800 --> 00:46:49.519 our creators already welcomed everybody, and yeah showed up for 994 00:46:49.599 --> 00:46:51.760 that and it sold really well, so you kind of 995 00:46:51.760 --> 00:46:54.639 have to face that. And then if it's like, I mean, 996 00:46:55.239 --> 00:46:57.039 my question would be like, what could that possibly be? 997 00:46:57.039 --> 00:46:59.760 Because if you're super into this now, because our creators 998 00:46:59.760 --> 00:47:02.280 and you going to try some real sick oh shit, 999 00:47:02.400 --> 00:47:04.840 Tarkoff is still there. Yeah, and it's gonna be coming 1000 00:47:04.840 --> 00:47:07.840 to Steam here soon. It's not on Steam yet, it's 1001 00:47:07.840 --> 00:47:10.039 gonna be coming to Steam here soon. And if anything, 1002 00:47:10.079 --> 00:47:13.199 it might destroy our Raiders and Marathon will never even 1003 00:47:13.239 --> 00:47:15.280 stand a chance because now that thing is just the biggest. 1004 00:47:15.639 --> 00:47:16.960 So yeah, I think Marathon's in. 1005 00:47:16.880 --> 00:47:17.480 A tough spot. 1006 00:47:17.559 --> 00:47:22.159 Yeah, I'm I feel like on top of Tarkov, there's 1007 00:47:22.199 --> 00:47:27.239 also the other behemoth that if Arc Raiders absolutely blows 1008 00:47:27.320 --> 00:47:30.320 up kind of takes over, like as the hot game 1009 00:47:30.400 --> 00:47:34.000 to stream or people are watching on Twitch, that Fortnite 1010 00:47:34.039 --> 00:47:36.360 is just going to come in and create an extraction 1011 00:47:37.199 --> 00:47:41.519 mode for folks. And speaking about Fortnite, Mike Manatti, you've 1012 00:47:41.559 --> 00:47:44.599 been checking out Simpsons in Fortnite. 1013 00:47:45.159 --> 00:47:48.159 Yeah, yeah, that's one way to pull my boomer, ask 1014 00:47:48.239 --> 00:47:51.079 beck In. I suppose it did one thing if it 1015 00:47:51.119 --> 00:47:54.239 was just like the Simpsons Battle Pass with some characters 1016 00:47:54.239 --> 00:47:57.320 you can buy, but the whole map is spring filled. 1017 00:47:57.599 --> 00:48:00.679 And I'm a sucker for the games where you just Springfield. 1018 00:48:00.840 --> 00:48:05.800 It's even like when you start playing, like like it's 1019 00:48:05.840 --> 00:48:09.039 like the intro goes through like like it says Battle Royale, 1020 00:48:09.079 --> 00:48:12.320 but it's in the style the Simpsons introuse when you're 1021 00:48:12.360 --> 00:48:15.199 on the bus, right, yeah, and the bus goes through 1022 00:48:15.199 --> 00:48:17.039 and then you see all Springfield, like going back to 1023 00:48:17.199 --> 00:48:21.039 Virtual Springfield or the PC in the mid nineties and 1024 00:48:21.079 --> 00:48:23.599 then Hit and Run. Of course, any games that have 1025 00:48:23.719 --> 00:48:26.239 like all of Springfield there, it's neat. So you know, 1026 00:48:26.360 --> 00:48:29.400 just say, d were we dropping boys Camp Krusty Like 1027 00:48:30.000 --> 00:48:32.679 that's that's pretty neat.

You know, Fortnite is still a really fun game. 1030 00:48:39.039 --> 00:48:42.320 Ill said, I haven't seen like it's not like some 1031 00:48:42.360 --> 00:48:45.199 of these updates where you're able to introduce items from 1032 00:48:45.199 --> 00:48:47.559 the property itself to make it interesting. Like I know, 1033 00:48:47.639 --> 00:48:50.239 when of those power rangers you could do a megazort thing. Yeah, 1034 00:48:50.320 --> 00:48:53.320 maybe maybe there's more here. But the only like simpsonsz 1035 00:48:53.519 --> 00:48:56.880 item I've come across is that fish with three eyes 1036 00:48:56.880 --> 00:48:58.320 and it does like what a lot of. 1037 00:48:58.239 --> 00:48:59.199 Ice that game do. 1038 00:48:59.440 --> 00:49:03.719 Let's you kind of blink forward Nightcrawler style a little 1039 00:49:03.719 --> 00:49:06.599 bit there, but you know, I did get the battle 1040 00:49:06.599 --> 00:49:08.760 pass because I want to be Homer, and of course 1041 00:49:08.800 --> 00:49:11.760 Homer is the last thing on the passele.

It was K 1076 00:50:36.920 --> 00:50:41.559 Pop Demon Hunter Live Event Tycoon, which is a community 1077 00:50:41.719 --> 00:50:44.679 created game where it's an idle game. You have to 1078 00:50:44.760 --> 00:50:47.880 punch a block or shoot a block to get dollars 1079 00:50:47.920 --> 00:50:49.800 to come out, and then use the dollars to upgrade 1080 00:50:49.840 --> 00:50:52.920 your stage and your house and to buy new instruments 1081 00:50:52.920 --> 00:50:55.480 to record new albums, and then you sell those albums 1082 00:50:55.519 --> 00:50:57.400 to get new fans, and then if you get twenty 1083 00:50:57.400 --> 00:51:00.360 five million fans, you could start a live event, which 1084 00:51:00.440 --> 00:51:02.840 just means giant versions of your characters singing with the 1085 00:51:02.880 --> 00:51:06.119 Hunters characters around the world. 1086 00:51:05.559 --> 00:51:08.519 It was like it. 1087 00:51:08.519 --> 00:51:11.880 Was cool, poorly designed one of these, and yet still 1088 00:51:11.920 --> 00:51:13.960 like a ton of fun because it's like just this 1089 00:51:14.000 --> 00:51:16.320 free little move that someone made in the game using 1090 00:51:16.360 --> 00:51:19.840 the assets from K Pop Demon Hunters, and the girls 1091 00:51:19.960 --> 00:51:21.639 were happy with it, and I have to have a 1092 00:51:21.639 --> 00:51:22.079 fun time. 1093 00:51:22.159 --> 00:51:26.559 So is it because they license the skins like your 1094 00:51:26.960 --> 00:51:30.719 people can community create that stuff? Is that why it's okay? Yeah? 1095 00:51:30.760 --> 00:51:31.519 Absolutely so. 1096 00:51:31.719 --> 00:51:34.400 Uh like when you're when we were making the albums, 1097 00:51:34.480 --> 00:51:36.159 it's like they were recording songs, they weren't able to 1098 00:51:36.239 --> 00:51:38.039 use any of the Hunterricks songs, so they just used 1099 00:51:38.079 --> 00:51:41.159 other songs from the game, right, Uh, but you know, 1100 00:51:41.159 --> 00:51:43.239 the Hunters characters were there, you know Ka Pop Demon 1101 00:51:43.280 --> 00:51:45.880 Hunter's characters are there, and yeah, like they couldn't bring 1102 00:51:45.880 --> 00:51:49.440 anything that wasn't already done by Epic themselves. Yeah, so 1103 00:51:49.480 --> 00:51:52.239 it's like, oh, the producer character or whatever, the manager, 1104 00:51:52.519 --> 00:51:54.159 he's not in the game, so we don't have him 1105 00:51:54.199 --> 00:51:57.400 running around at least as far as I know. But yeah, 1106 00:51:57.440 --> 00:51:58.639 they just kind of use what they had, and then 1107 00:51:58.639 --> 00:52:01.920 there was a bunch of of genera unreal engine assets 1108 00:52:02.440 --> 00:52:03.840 to make it to fill out the rest of the world. 1109 00:52:03.880 --> 00:52:07.119 And okay, people do this. It's been a bit of 1110 00:52:07.159 --> 00:52:12.079 a let's call it a Fortnite time out, and we've 1111 00:52:12.159 --> 00:52:15.599 not I've not seen the Simpson stuff yet. I want to. 1112 00:52:16.639 --> 00:52:19.400 I'm gonna check that out. The last thing he was 1113 00:52:19.440 --> 00:52:23.480 really into was that steal the brain Rock game, which, right, 1114 00:52:24.039 --> 00:52:26.840 probably will we got into this mess in the first place. 1115 00:52:27.079 --> 00:52:29.400 Yeah, I was like, I the kids definitely asked about 1116 00:52:29.400 --> 00:52:30.719 something along those lines. 1117 00:52:30.440 --> 00:52:32.599 And like, well, I don't know if they have that yet. Yeah, 1118 00:52:33.159 --> 00:52:36.440 I'm not ready for that personally. Yeah, it just sounds 1119 00:52:36.440 --> 00:52:39.639 like this K Pop one is the community created one 1120 00:52:39.719 --> 00:52:44.360 is maybe a little bit more like cerebral, not cerebral charitable. 1121 00:52:44.599 --> 00:52:47.280 I mean, you know, it's a good it's a good 1122 00:52:47.280 --> 00:52:49.239 clicker in the way that all clickers are going. 1123 00:52:49.360 --> 00:52:52.800 Yeah, gosh. The last he said clicker. The last Simpsons 1124 00:52:52.840 --> 00:52:55.159 game was tapped out, which you just can't even play anymore. 1125 00:52:55.880 --> 00:52:57.840 But it made a ton of money while it was going, Yeah, 1126 00:52:58.320 --> 00:52:59.079 let's cash out. 1127 00:52:59.119 --> 00:53:02.280 I wish they made like a non like you have 1128 00:53:02.360 --> 00:53:04.559 to wait twel four hours to do like things version 1129 00:53:04.599 --> 00:53:06.119 of that game. I could just play now because there's 1130 00:53:06.159 --> 00:53:10.199 something funny out that Also, the car Homer's car apparently 1131 00:53:10.199 --> 00:53:11.840 you can buy that in the shop, which I mean, 1132 00:53:12.199 --> 00:53:13.559 I imagine means it's an eat. 1133 00:53:14.039 --> 00:53:18.840 You can use it in Rocket League. Yeah, that's actually okay. 1134 00:53:19.840 --> 00:53:22.480 So there's like a separate mode where you drop into 1135 00:53:22.519 --> 00:53:25.800 Springfield or is that just what the map is? 1136 00:53:25.880 --> 00:53:27.840 That's just what the map is. The map is just 1137 00:53:27.880 --> 00:53:31.920 Springfield right now, like the whole things. There's like Evergreen Terrace, 1138 00:53:32.000 --> 00:53:35.719 there's Camp Krusty. There's something called like the Doughnut District 1139 00:53:35.800 --> 00:53:37.400 with a bunch of the shops. 1140 00:53:38.000 --> 00:53:41.800 Uh, this reactor. Yeah, so what do you think? Like 1141 00:53:42.039 --> 00:53:45.519 I get, like, you know, the Zoomers in the Alpha, 1142 00:53:45.639 --> 00:53:48.639 they know what's the Simpsons are. 1143 00:53:48.280 --> 00:53:51.079 So like they don't have any money, so they don't 1144 00:53:51.079 --> 00:53:52.599 doesn't matter. They don't matter right now. 1145 00:53:52.719 --> 00:53:56.360 I mean, I say, I've never been super duper into 1146 00:53:56.440 --> 00:53:59.440 the Simpsons, and I'm like, yeah, maybe like a middle 1147 00:53:59.480 --> 00:54:02.280 millennial here, but I can see the value in it 1148 00:54:02.320 --> 00:54:06.599 and it blowing up because of all everyone else having money. 1149 00:54:06.679 --> 00:54:08.880 Like you said, Grub, I. 1150 00:54:08.840 --> 00:54:12.639 Forget, Disney's invested like billions of dollars into Epic games, 1151 00:54:12.639 --> 00:54:15.159 but I think, you know, I think Epic as they know, 1152 00:54:15.320 --> 00:54:16.840 and they kind of do one for you, one for me. 1153 00:54:16.920 --> 00:54:20.159 So it's like your Power Rangers, Old Sup Power Rangers 1154 00:54:20.159 --> 00:54:23.559 and then K Pop Demon Hunters and now Simpsons and 1155 00:54:23.639 --> 00:54:25.480 the next one will be la Boo boo or something. 1156 00:54:25.519 --> 00:54:26.880 I don't know. I think they Oh, I don't know 1157 00:54:26.920 --> 00:54:31.360 if one each other, you know, yeah, that'd be all right. No, No, 1158 00:54:31.519 --> 00:54:34.760 put Fargo in Fortnite, got it? I want them muppets 1159 00:54:34.920 --> 00:54:36.599 just have a machine gun. 1160 00:54:36.880 --> 00:54:39.880 It is there's a part of so this is maybe 1161 00:54:39.920 --> 00:54:43.480 this is a Laboudo that's like, oh, so Barts just 1162 00:54:43.800 --> 00:54:45.400 that's an assault rifle. 1163 00:54:45.440 --> 00:54:48.119 It is shooting people. Now you're you're right, it's weird. 1164 00:54:48.519 --> 00:54:52.079 You're right, it's weird. I do think though for me, 1165 00:54:52.440 --> 00:54:55.320 and again maybe I'm just like hyper rationalizing, but like 1166 00:54:56.440 --> 00:55:04.599 there is such cartoonishly nonsensical gun play in for like yeah, again, 1167 00:55:04.679 --> 00:55:07.559 like I'm not trying to find reasons. It's not even 1168 00:55:07.639 --> 00:55:10.480 like on Charter where on charge you's obviously marking like 1169 00:55:11.079 --> 00:55:13.599 thousands of fools over and over and over again, and 1170 00:55:13.639 --> 00:55:16.559 it's just like that's what the game is. There's something 1171 00:55:17.400 --> 00:55:19.719 I don't know, and maybe I'm just drinking the kool 1172 00:55:19.719 --> 00:55:22.840 aid with what Fortnite is sort of able to just 1173 00:55:22.880 --> 00:55:27.440 get away with with very clearly being a third person shooter. 1174 00:55:28.239 --> 00:55:30.760 But there is something about it that I'm just like, Man, 1175 00:55:31.199 --> 00:55:35.920 it's it's just maybe it's like a nerfification of everything. 1176 00:55:35.960 --> 00:55:38.239 I don't know, it feels like, yeah, you're right, I look. 1177 00:55:38.239 --> 00:55:40.280 A lot of it's just because hey, it's really popular, 1178 00:55:40.360 --> 00:55:42.800 so the brands are just going to embrace It's. Yeah, 1179 00:55:42.840 --> 00:55:45.159 a part of me it's like, maybe the gun should 1180 00:55:45.199 --> 00:55:48.800 look slightly less like real guns. Maybe it should really 1181 00:55:48.840 --> 00:55:51.280 be nerfy, just because I don't want to be like 1182 00:55:51.360 --> 00:55:54.159 a well somebody think of the kids thing. It's fine, 1183 00:55:54.199 --> 00:55:57.760 but there's and they can slowly kids play, right, Yeah. 1184 00:55:57.559 --> 00:56:01.519 For sure, and they could slowly do you know over 1185 00:56:01.559 --> 00:56:03.119 a long period of time. I feel like they could 1186 00:56:03.159 --> 00:56:05.400 just make it so cartoonish, like. 1187 00:56:05.440 --> 00:56:09.000 I could not imagine Mario in here holding assault rifle, 1188 00:56:09.199 --> 00:56:12.039 Like I just couldn't imagine that so weird to me, 1189 00:56:13.320 --> 00:56:14.280 I mean. 1190 00:56:14.440 --> 00:56:16.639 Shadow, shadow strapped up. 1191 00:56:17.199 --> 00:56:19.039 I mean a lot of it is still just remnants 1192 00:56:19.039 --> 00:56:23.519 are the fact that this was originally a zombie like 1193 00:56:23.719 --> 00:56:27.159 survival co op game thing, right. That's where a lot 1194 00:56:27.199 --> 00:56:30.199 of this is still coming from, even now with the 1195 00:56:30.239 --> 00:56:35.159 fucking Simpson's Crossover event where you can run into Darth 1196 00:56:35.239 --> 00:56:39.559 Vader and Peter Griffin and the Red Ranger and just 1197 00:56:40.239 --> 00:56:43.559 all this insane stuff. So but you know that it's 1198 00:56:43.800 --> 00:56:45.800 it's been a good reason to go back to Fortnite. 1199 00:56:45.800 --> 00:56:47.039 Why not, that's a. 1200 00:56:46.800 --> 00:56:52.400 That's a dream blunt rotation you just mentioned, Mike Manatta. 1201 00:56:52.440 --> 00:56:56.840 You've also been continuing your trek through Lumio's City with 1202 00:56:56.920 --> 00:56:58.639 Pokemon Legends zaw. 1203 00:56:59.440 --> 00:57:01.639 Yeah, you know, I rode credits on it, and then 1204 00:57:01.679 --> 00:57:02.880 I was like, oh and I can move on to 1205 00:57:02.960 --> 00:57:05.239 something else button what if? And then I kind of 1206 00:57:05.320 --> 00:57:07.639 kept playing it and I did all the I did 1207 00:57:07.639 --> 00:57:10.559 the main post game missions too, which. 1208 00:57:11.000 --> 00:57:13.480 Is kind of just continuing the royal stuff. 1209 00:57:13.519 --> 00:57:17.079 For another quote unquote fifteen ranks, you can see kind 1210 00:57:17.079 --> 00:57:19.400 of the final story beats, and then you know, I 1211 00:57:19.400 --> 00:57:20.719 don't want to spoil anything, but then you can do 1212 00:57:20.760 --> 00:57:23.159 a battle and you can capture an important Pokemon, and 1213 00:57:23.199 --> 00:57:25.400 then that's kind of really it for the main quest. 1214 00:57:25.400 --> 00:57:27.840 There's still things that could do, like I haven't finished 1215 00:57:27.840 --> 00:57:31.039 that Lady's research stuff, I haven't done all the side quests, 1216 00:57:31.519 --> 00:57:34.199 but I kind of did the main endgame stuff. 1217 00:57:34.280 --> 00:57:37.239 So yeah, that game actually really worked for me. 1218 00:57:37.320 --> 00:57:39.039 It turns out, even though it is still kind of 1219 00:57:39.159 --> 00:57:42.519 janky and weird, like I like the real time battles, 1220 00:57:42.679 --> 00:57:45.079 but there's so there is a lot of like this 1221 00:57:45.159 --> 00:57:47.360 kind just kind of stuck on the side of this building. 1222 00:57:47.880 --> 00:57:49.039 Is it moving properly? 1223 00:57:49.639 --> 00:57:52.000 Like you know, there's like supposed to be stealth with 1224 00:57:52.039 --> 00:57:54.840 approaching these people, and that feels weird and not great 1225 00:57:55.199 --> 00:57:59.280 as I'll get out, But fighting the Pokemon it feels good. 1226 00:57:59.639 --> 00:58:00.440 The post scheme. 1227 00:58:00.239 --> 00:58:03.880 Stuff to scale super well. Like when I was doing 1228 00:58:03.920 --> 00:58:06.800 like that fifteenth fight my Pokemon, We're all in like 1229 00:58:07.000 --> 00:58:08.960 the nineties in terms of level, and I was still 1230 00:58:08.960 --> 00:58:12.119 fighting people were kind of in the seventies, So I 1231 00:58:12.199 --> 00:58:13.840 was like, Okay, I feel like this end game sus 1232 00:58:13.880 --> 00:58:17.480 should be getting more difficult, and it's actually mostly a kickwalk. 1233 00:58:17.519 --> 00:58:18.760 Even the part of the day where I had to 1234 00:58:18.760 --> 00:58:21.559 get my challenger's ticket by fighting everybody, it's like all 1235 00:58:21.599 --> 00:58:24.000 these trainers would still have little fifty nine Pokemon. So 1236 00:58:24.039 --> 00:58:26.360 it's beginning to feel more like a chore that was 1237 00:58:26.400 --> 00:58:29.039 pushing through a little bit because I did want to 1238 00:58:29.079 --> 00:58:30.760 see the rest of the stuff there. 1239 00:58:31.519 --> 00:58:36.039 Yeah, but I did it. Endgame difficulty in Pokemon has 1240 00:58:36.039 --> 00:58:40.039 always been a problem just across the board, with all 1241 00:58:40.159 --> 00:58:43.239 their titles, But Mikey, would you say it's worth it 1242 00:58:43.280 --> 00:58:45.440 to go through it to finish up those the rest 1243 00:58:45.440 --> 00:58:46.079 of those ranks. 1244 00:58:47.960 --> 00:58:50.599 You get a couple of cool Pokemon for doing it, 1245 00:58:50.679 --> 00:58:54.480 if you care about that. And even outside of doing that, 1246 00:58:54.480 --> 00:58:57.199 there's a couple important Pokemon you can catch too, And 1247 00:58:57.280 --> 00:58:58.480 I caught one of them and I had them in 1248 00:58:58.519 --> 00:58:59.159 my party and. 1249 00:58:59.039 --> 00:59:02.559 That felt fun. So yeah, I mean it was me. 1250 00:59:02.639 --> 00:59:04.280 It's like I was enjoying this game. I kind of 1251 00:59:04.400 --> 00:59:06.360 do actually want to keep playing it, and I still 1252 00:59:06.400 --> 00:59:08.280 felt a little cheated early on when the game like 1253 00:59:08.360 --> 00:59:11.440 skips you skips a bunch of rankings for you. It's 1254 00:59:11.480 --> 00:59:13.079 I kind of you kind of get them back here, 1255 00:59:13.159 --> 00:59:17.480 I suppose in a way. So yeah, but uh, there 1256 00:59:17.519 --> 00:59:19.000 was something to this game for sure. I don't think 1257 00:59:19.039 --> 00:59:21.960 it was amazing or anything, but it is definitely the 1258 00:59:21.960 --> 00:59:25.440 Pokemon game that I clicked with the most since like 1259 00:59:25.719 --> 00:59:27.199 the DS era. 1260 00:59:27.519 --> 00:59:29.960 Probably. Yeah, so I was. 1261 00:59:30.079 --> 00:59:32.679 I was pretty pleased all and all, and I'm excited 1262 00:59:33.079 --> 00:59:35.239 I liked I liked the Legends side series a lot. 1263 00:59:35.280 --> 00:59:36.559 I don't know if I still have too much hope 1264 00:59:36.559 --> 00:59:39.320 for the main series. I'm not sure. I'd be curious 1265 00:59:39.360 --> 00:59:41.599 to try it, but every time they kind of do 1266 00:59:41.679 --> 00:59:42.639 slightly different. 1267 00:59:42.400 --> 00:59:45.559 Things here with legends. I am here for it. 1268 00:59:46.039 --> 00:59:48.320 Even though like this game was more of a Pokemon 1269 00:59:49.199 --> 00:59:51.559 X and Y sequel than I was expecting. I kind 1270 00:59:51.559 --> 00:59:53.599 of like digging into the lures, like, oh a lot 1271 00:59:53.639 --> 00:59:54.960 of these characters did show up. 1272 00:59:54.840 --> 00:59:55.440 In X and Y. 1273 00:59:55.559 --> 00:59:58.280 Huh yeah, or like it relate to them? Oh interesting? 1274 00:59:58.320 --> 01:00:00.599 I apparently did not remember much of what happened in 1275 01:00:00.639 --> 01:00:01.239 that one. 1276 01:00:01.920 --> 01:00:06.599 Speaking about Pokemon, one of the incentives was to revive 1277 01:00:07.119 --> 01:00:10.719 grow into the Pokemon Center and revive Pokemonday Night combat 1278 01:00:11.159 --> 01:00:13.639 with Sean and I, and that is we hit that goal. 1279 01:00:13.840 --> 01:00:16.280 We hit all the goals really fast actually. 1280 01:00:17.119 --> 01:00:21.800 So that will be coming soon to your internet's gang. 1281 01:00:21.840 --> 01:00:25.679 The goal get me to worlds. I want to be 1282 01:00:25.719 --> 01:00:30.719 a Pokemon champion, going from poke balls to ball balls. 1283 01:00:31.119 --> 01:00:33.480 Mike Manatti, you and I have been playing ball pit. 1284 01:00:34.400 --> 01:00:36.599 You played this last night on Mega man. 1285 01:00:37.159 --> 01:00:39.800 I did this one's been getting a lot of buzz. 1286 01:00:39.880 --> 01:00:42.880 It's been an insane year for roguelikes, roguelikes, whatever you 1287 01:00:42.880 --> 01:00:44.480 want to call them, So you're not mad at me, 1288 01:00:45.840 --> 01:00:48.719 but this one has still managed to pop off and 1289 01:00:48.880 --> 01:00:52.559 get a ton of buzz and I didn't tylely I 1290 01:00:52.559 --> 01:00:55.199 was getting into. I knew it was kind of arcanoid slash, 1291 01:00:55.239 --> 01:00:59.880 breakout slash alleyway adjacent, but it's also it's a lot 1292 01:00:59.880 --> 01:01:03.280 of Vampire Survivor's DNA, Like that's the specific brand of 1293 01:01:03.400 --> 01:01:05.519 roguel like you're getting here in terms of, you know, 1294 01:01:05.519 --> 01:01:07.280 you're kind of beating up a lot of enemies, you're 1295 01:01:07.320 --> 01:01:09.760 picking up the XP, and then you're leveling up and 1296 01:01:09.800 --> 01:01:12.599 getting boosts from that. But it is all in this 1297 01:01:12.760 --> 01:01:15.480 kind of you know, you have these balls that you're 1298 01:01:15.519 --> 01:01:18.360 shooting and kind of a shoot them up situation like 1299 01:01:18.400 --> 01:01:21.039 twin stick style, but you know, they bounce around these 1300 01:01:21.159 --> 01:01:24.039 very block shaped enemies, very much like a breakout or 1301 01:01:24.079 --> 01:01:27.519 an arcanoid, and then you're getting bonuses like special balls, 1302 01:01:27.639 --> 01:01:29.559 like this ball is going to make us every time 1303 01:01:29.679 --> 01:01:31.760 you hit a block, it's also going to send a 1304 01:01:31.800 --> 01:01:34.559 laser out to every other block on a horizontal line, 1305 01:01:34.800 --> 01:01:37.079 or this ball is going to poison every ball it hits, 1306 01:01:37.079 --> 01:01:40.079 so it kind of takes, you know, some ticking damage afterwards, 1307 01:01:40.119 --> 01:01:42.719 and then the balls can eventually kind of evolve a 1308 01:01:42.800 --> 01:01:45.679 combined with each other into super balls, and you get 1309 01:01:45.679 --> 01:01:49.000 all this other wacky stuff so that feels great. Then 1310 01:01:49.000 --> 01:01:51.639 there's some progression between all of it where you kind 1311 01:01:51.639 --> 01:01:55.119 of are building out a city, so you're making resource 1312 01:01:55.239 --> 01:01:58.559 tiles or buildings, and then you do another kind of 1313 01:01:58.760 --> 01:02:01.760 arcanoid mini game, seending people out to these things to 1314 01:02:01.800 --> 01:02:05.239 collect the resources or work on the buildings, and eventually, 1315 01:02:05.280 --> 01:02:07.400 if enough people hit a building, you make that building 1316 01:02:07.440 --> 01:02:10.920 and you unlock a new character or a buff or 1317 01:02:10.960 --> 01:02:11.599 something like that. 1318 01:02:11.719 --> 01:02:14.880 Yeah, that part of the game I don't like as much. 1319 01:02:14.920 --> 01:02:18.119 But maybe it's just because I generally just hate base 1320 01:02:18.199 --> 01:02:19.360 building of any sort. 1321 01:02:19.880 --> 01:02:22.760 Oh wow, your base you're anti base building. I didn't 1322 01:02:22.800 --> 01:02:23.480 see that. 1323 01:02:23.199 --> 01:02:25.039 You're not a chance the only one I've heard say 1324 01:02:25.039 --> 01:02:27.039 this that they're not as enthralled with that part of 1325 01:02:27.079 --> 01:02:27.360 the game. 1326 01:02:27.559 --> 01:02:29.400 I've heard that a couple of times. Mike, you do 1327 01:02:29.599 --> 01:02:31.360 enjoy it, though, Yeah, I like it. I think it's 1328 01:02:31.400 --> 01:02:32.639 an interesting flavor. 1329 01:02:32.840 --> 01:02:34.320 I think it, you know, kind of carrying some of 1330 01:02:34.360 --> 01:02:37.360 those mechanics into that part of the game, which sometimes 1331 01:02:37.400 --> 01:02:39.239 can be somewhat basic. 1332 01:02:39.800 --> 01:02:41.280 So I appreciate it. 1333 01:02:41.320 --> 01:02:43.559 I know what you mean, though, it is it's busier 1334 01:02:43.559 --> 01:02:45.119 than it would be if it was just like, hey, 1335 01:02:45.199 --> 01:02:48.440 you level it up because you have experience points, here's 1336 01:02:48.480 --> 01:02:49.039 a new character. 1337 01:02:49.880 --> 01:02:51.840 Yeah, because I was trying to debate whether or I 1338 01:02:51.920 --> 01:02:53.599 was going to start playing this, and it was like, so, 1339 01:02:53.800 --> 01:02:55.159 I'm at a point of the year where I'm like 1340 01:02:55.199 --> 01:02:57.880 looking for any excuse not to play something so that 1341 01:02:57.920 --> 01:03:00.119 it doesn't take my time. And I was like, oh, well, 1342 01:03:00.119 --> 01:03:02.000 you know, there's other games like this that I like 1343 01:03:02.039 --> 01:03:03.880 the whole package, so I'll just stick with those. But 1344 01:03:04.199 --> 01:03:05.400 I don't know, it sounds like it's a little bit 1345 01:03:05.440 --> 01:03:07.880 more split chat people going back and forth about it. 1346 01:03:08.000 --> 01:03:13.119 You need to try ball pitch, Yeah. 1347 01:03:11.320 --> 01:03:13.480 Yeah, kind of watching you play last night, Michael Litel 1348 01:03:13.599 --> 01:03:15.320 was like, oh, I should try this game. 1349 01:03:15.519 --> 01:03:18.360 You, of all people grub should check how ball. Yeah. 1350 01:03:18.719 --> 01:03:20.960 I was stucking that too. Yeah, all right, I'll do. 1351 01:03:21.039 --> 01:03:24.039 So the part you're talking about is like, is that 1352 01:03:24.119 --> 01:03:26.400 with the with the building stuff, is that like the 1353 01:03:26.880 --> 01:03:28.519 it felt like it was like a farming thing. 1354 01:03:29.000 --> 01:03:31.360 Yeah, it's a little bit like because there's there are 1355 01:03:31.400 --> 01:03:34.280 like the resources, and like the wheat fields, your character 1356 01:03:34.320 --> 01:03:37.079 will pass through it and collect it, but then other ones, 1357 01:03:37.119 --> 01:03:38.960 like the forest, you'll bounce off it. You'll get a 1358 01:03:38.960 --> 01:03:41.079 thing of wood and you'll need that to build the 1359 01:03:41.119 --> 01:03:43.480 other buildings on there and you kind of like are 1360 01:03:43.519 --> 01:03:45.199 moving these things around to try to. 1361 01:03:45.199 --> 01:03:45.559 Play in it. 1362 01:03:45.599 --> 01:03:47.599 So, Okay, my guy's gonna bounce off this building and 1363 01:03:47.679 --> 01:03:49.519 hit that and then bounce into the forest and collect 1364 01:03:49.519 --> 01:03:52.920 the resource. Now it's a to do. I think it's 1365 01:03:52.920 --> 01:03:54.400 so fun to do. But I can see why some 1366 01:03:54.480 --> 01:03:56.400 people are I wish. 1367 01:03:56.199 --> 01:03:58.840 You could play. Yeah, I mean, no, that's what they want. 1368 01:03:58.880 --> 01:04:01.280 That's fine. I was wondering, like, oh, I wonder why 1369 01:04:01.280 --> 01:04:04.360 I like this still, what if this wasn't here. 1370 01:04:05.639 --> 01:04:09.239 Yeah, it's like the ball bouncing or people bouncing in 1371 01:04:09.280 --> 01:04:12.400 that just feels clunkier than it does when you're actually 1372 01:04:12.440 --> 01:04:14.039 playing the game. Game. 1373 01:04:14.360 --> 01:04:18.679 Yeah, the game super fun though, very you know, the 1374 01:04:18.719 --> 01:04:21.079 progression was nice, like, you know, each time was like, Okay, 1375 01:04:21.079 --> 01:04:23.079 I'm getting a little better at this, and I'm got 1376 01:04:23.599 --> 01:04:25.559 Sometimes he plays games, it almost feels like a little 1377 01:04:25.559 --> 01:04:28.039 too generous and easy in here. It's like, no, I 1378 01:04:28.199 --> 01:04:30.480 just lost because my build wasn't good enough, and I 1379 01:04:30.480 --> 01:04:33.000 have to learn more about what I should be looking for, 1380 01:04:33.239 --> 01:04:35.639 which balls I should be leveling up and combining into 1381 01:04:35.719 --> 01:04:39.519 better balls. Kind of. It's also very Vampire Survivors and 1382 01:04:39.559 --> 01:04:41.840 that there's a bunch of different levels, so you know, 1383 01:04:41.880 --> 01:04:44.400 I beat one level, it's hardly I beat the game. 1384 01:04:44.440 --> 01:04:46.440 I'm going to unlock more of them. At the end 1385 01:04:46.440 --> 01:04:48.760 of them, there's these boss fights that was then it 1386 01:04:48.840 --> 01:04:51.079 kind of really felt like a shmup. Like I had 1387 01:04:51.079 --> 01:04:53.719 this skeleton guy coming down towards me, and his weak 1388 01:04:53.719 --> 01:04:55.559 point was in the back of his head, so, you know, 1389 01:04:55.760 --> 01:04:58.320 very arcanoidea. I had to only kind of hit him 1390 01:04:58.360 --> 01:05:00.400 from the back by bouncing my balls ast to the 1391 01:05:00.440 --> 01:05:02.199 back wall and then into its crown. 1392 01:05:02.599 --> 01:05:03.320 But they're like the. 1393 01:05:03.280 --> 01:05:08.679 One time I had these balls that uh. 1394 01:05:07.199 --> 01:05:12.480 I'm saying balls a lot. No, it was the implication 1395 01:05:12.519 --> 01:05:15.239 of what you were saying, Judge. 1396 01:05:15.280 --> 01:05:16.679 But like the one time I had like all these 1397 01:05:16.679 --> 01:05:18.599 balls that like would just phase through things so they 1398 01:05:18.599 --> 01:05:20.400 want to bunce around. It was very easy to came 1399 01:05:20.599 --> 01:05:22.800 just we were doing straight shots and took them out, 1400 01:05:22.920 --> 01:05:26.320 uh right away. So yeah, uh, I immediately got to 1401 01:05:26.320 --> 01:05:30.239 appeal this. I think I definitely want to play more 1402 01:05:30.280 --> 01:05:32.440 against been an insane year for these kinds of games, 1403 01:05:32.480 --> 01:05:36.159 with Eighties two and Mega Magic and Monster Trained two 1404 01:05:36.239 --> 01:05:40.719 and Nubby's Number Factory and just so many of these uh. 1405 01:05:40.920 --> 01:05:42.760 And yet you know, I'm not really tired of it. 1406 01:05:42.800 --> 01:05:44.800 As long as they keep making good ones, I'm still 1407 01:05:44.840 --> 01:05:46.519 ready to show up for them. 1408 01:05:46.639 --> 01:05:49.519 Yeah. I feel like there was another one that we're forgetting. 1409 01:05:49.880 --> 01:05:52.400 There was rack coin, which is more of a test right. 1410 01:05:53.079 --> 01:05:55.039 That was the slot machine one. 1411 01:05:55.119 --> 01:06:01.280 Oh god gosh, clover Coinstar, Clover pitched Clover clever Coinstar. 1412 01:06:02.079 --> 01:06:04.480 Go to the bank instead and do it. Just cant Yeah, 1413 01:06:04.519 --> 01:06:06.719 you're better off. They'll take a cut. It's not worth it. 1414 01:06:06.840 --> 01:06:11.800 Yeah. And to wrap off the first segment here, folks, 1415 01:06:11.880 --> 01:06:14.360 we have the let me see if this works, No know, 1416 01:06:14.360 --> 01:06:19.159 I hope it doesn't break anything. The Dad game of 1417 01:06:20.199 --> 01:06:23.719 the Week the week Mars First Logistics. 1418 01:06:24.199 --> 01:06:26.599 Why Yeah, people have been telling me to check this 1419 01:06:26.639 --> 01:06:29.320 out for a while now. They're like, hey, grub here 1420 01:06:29.360 --> 01:06:31.719 that you need another Dad game. Here it is, Uh, 1421 01:06:32.079 --> 01:06:36.000 it's Mars First Logistics. And I don't know what I 1422 01:06:36.039 --> 01:06:39.480 thought it was. I guess it's mostly what I thought 1423 01:06:39.519 --> 01:06:41.480 it was, but it's a little bit more bite sized 1424 01:06:41.519 --> 01:06:45.559 than I guess I was expecting. It's a banjo KAZOOI 1425 01:06:45.679 --> 01:06:49.039 nuts and bolts like in that you are assembling vehicles 1426 01:06:49.079 --> 01:06:52.519 to perform tasks and mostly take objects from one side 1427 01:06:52.519 --> 01:06:55.760 of the map to the other and you could kind 1428 01:06:55.760 --> 01:07:00.000 of build the the your your vehicles at any time. 1429 01:07:00.199 --> 01:07:02.480 You just hit a button you could start editing them. 1430 01:07:02.599 --> 01:07:06.280 And they do give you blueprints to like solve certain tasks, 1431 01:07:06.280 --> 01:07:07.719 but a lot of times, so at least so far 1432 01:07:08.000 --> 01:07:10.679 early on in the game, they are making me come 1433 01:07:10.760 --> 01:07:13.760 up with my own solution first, and then afterwards they'll 1434 01:07:13.760 --> 01:07:17.000 give me sort of an optimized blueprint to succeed at 1435 01:07:17.000 --> 01:07:20.000 that task. There was one where it's like, just take 1436 01:07:20.039 --> 01:07:23.000 this box to this point. I'm like, okay, I'm gonna 1437 01:07:23.000 --> 01:07:25.519 build a little claw machine on the back and I'm 1438 01:07:25.559 --> 01:07:28.639 just gonna drag it across the Martian surface and go 1439 01:07:28.679 --> 01:07:29.719 for it. And then I got there, and then they 1440 01:07:29.760 --> 01:07:32.480 gave me a little blueprint that was like, had these 1441 01:07:33.400 --> 01:07:36.119 hydraulic lifts, so I could sort of build an arm 1442 01:07:36.199 --> 01:07:38.239 and lift it off the ground and then drive across. 1443 01:07:38.400 --> 01:07:40.480 I'm like, oh, okay, that's cool, and it unlocked the 1444 01:07:41.199 --> 01:07:43.880 hydraulic lifts for me, so now I could use those 1445 01:07:43.880 --> 01:07:46.920 of my own designs. It got really interesting when it 1446 01:07:46.960 --> 01:07:50.519 was like take this steel beam to this space and 1447 01:07:50.599 --> 01:07:52.599 don't just drop it off. You have to drop it 1448 01:07:52.639 --> 01:07:55.559 off in a vertical way so that it actually like 1449 01:07:55.639 --> 01:07:57.840 sits up and sits in this box and then we'll 1450 01:07:57.880 --> 01:07:59.920 accept it. So I kind of had to build a 1451 01:08:01.239 --> 01:08:03.840 claw to grab it, and I put that claw on 1452 01:08:04.079 --> 01:08:08.199 a sort of rotating wheel, and then I had like 1453 01:08:08.239 --> 01:08:11.239 a little catcher a bit of like PVC piping to 1454 01:08:11.360 --> 01:08:14.440 catch it. So I picked it up, I rotated it, 1455 01:08:14.840 --> 01:08:18.880 I loosened to drop it onto that PVC catcher, and 1456 01:08:18.960 --> 01:08:22.039 then I had that on one of those hydraulic lifts. 1457 01:08:22.119 --> 01:08:24.600 So I lifted it up and it began standing up 1458 01:08:24.640 --> 01:08:27.880 and sort of leaning against the PVC piping, and then 1459 01:08:27.880 --> 01:08:30.560 I drove into it to sort of set it upright 1460 01:08:30.680 --> 01:08:35.239 inside of the acceptable thing. And I was so excited 1461 01:08:35.279 --> 01:08:37.399 when it worked. It was, Oh my god, this is 1462 01:08:37.439 --> 01:08:39.760 exactly what I want from this game. I was able 1463 01:08:39.760 --> 01:08:42.399 to like come up with that idea, execute on it, 1464 01:08:42.439 --> 01:08:46.439 and then like like succeed all in about ten minutes. 1465 01:08:46.720 --> 01:08:48.439 I'm like, that's about the right amount of time. 1466 01:08:48.600 --> 01:08:50.680 I don't want to be spending hours and hours on 1467 01:08:50.720 --> 01:08:52.920 these designs, at least not to just like do something 1468 01:08:53.000 --> 01:08:54.640 simple like dropping off a steel beam. 1469 01:08:55.279 --> 01:08:56.680 But yeah, it's hitting the spot. 1470 01:08:58.520 --> 01:09:03.199 I just wish I still had access to, uh, maybe 1471 01:09:03.399 --> 01:09:07.239 a television show where you just bust idioms and and 1472 01:09:07.279 --> 01:09:09.399 miscllaneous things and have a team of engineers to help 1473 01:09:09.439 --> 01:09:11.119 you out because I feel like you have a top 1474 01:09:11.279 --> 01:09:11.840 of your life. 1475 01:09:12.239 --> 01:09:13.800 Yes, yes I would. 1476 01:09:14.039 --> 01:09:15.920 I would love to be on a Battlebot team and 1477 01:09:15.960 --> 01:09:17.680 just be like, can I come up with some ideas 1478 01:09:17.720 --> 01:09:18.439 and let's see if we can. 1479 01:09:18.399 --> 01:09:20.760 Figure them out? Yeah? I may actually be able to 1480 01:09:20.800 --> 01:09:24.680 get us a team on battle Bots. Yeah. What a 1481 01:09:24.720 --> 01:09:30.680 weird departure that would be this you're describing this. I 1482 01:09:30.720 --> 01:09:32.560 was like, I feel like I need to be like 1483 01:09:32.960 --> 01:09:41.399 huddled around a grill watching you understand, Like that could 1484 01:09:41.479 --> 01:09:43.359 use a flip kind of thing, you know. 1485 01:09:43.600 --> 01:09:47.039 Yeah, it's definitely is just like, let's be clear, I 1486 01:09:47.079 --> 01:09:50.439 am not good at these games. Uh Like, It's not 1487 01:09:50.479 --> 01:09:55.079 like I have some great technical engineering mind. I have 1488 01:09:55.399 --> 01:09:57.439 a simple caveman monkey brain. 1489 01:09:57.800 --> 01:09:58.039 Yeah. 1490 01:09:59.359 --> 01:10:03.039 Short, Well, I mean, I mean I do eventually succeed 1491 01:10:03.039 --> 01:10:06.239 at the goals, but in an inelegant way. I just 1492 01:10:06.279 --> 01:10:09.439 think it's good when these games are like that's that's fine, 1493 01:10:10.000 --> 01:10:12.199 be an elegant, we don't care, just get the job done, 1494 01:10:12.239 --> 01:10:13.560 and that still feels really good. 1495 01:10:13.680 --> 01:10:16.760 Okay. I know that because of the Bambathon, we have 1496 01:10:16.960 --> 01:10:20.560 several themed weeks up ahead of us. I mean, well 1497 01:10:20.600 --> 01:10:21.600 into twenty twenty. 1498 01:10:21.399 --> 01:10:23.920 Sixty fifty two weeks a year, buddy, we can let's 1499 01:10:23.920 --> 01:10:25.479 got well. I was going to. 1500 01:10:25.520 --> 01:10:28.039 Say, if we can't devote a whole week to it, 1501 01:10:28.119 --> 01:10:32.239 perhaps a day where we have science Fair project. I 1502 01:10:32.279 --> 01:10:34.159 would like that and we just try to do stuff 1503 01:10:34.199 --> 01:10:37.640 like throw an egg off the roof or like build 1504 01:10:37.640 --> 01:10:40.039 a bridge out of like popsicle sticks or something like. 1505 01:10:40.880 --> 01:10:44.600 Yeah, right, just for you. That looks really cool. 1506 01:10:45.760 --> 01:10:50.039 So it has multiplayers multiplayer, and I think I decided 1507 01:10:50.079 --> 01:10:52.439 during this that I am going to set up a 1508 01:10:52.439 --> 01:10:53.680 stream and we're going to play some of this. 1509 01:10:53.880 --> 01:10:56.079 Yeah, I would like that because this looks and it 1510 01:10:56.119 --> 01:10:58.479 has a steep kind of art style that's sort of 1511 01:10:58.520 --> 01:10:59.840 like so shady ISHU. 1512 01:10:59.840 --> 01:11:01.880 You know, I don't know if you call this, but 1513 01:11:01.920 --> 01:11:07.640 you're feeling I'm feeling it too. Man. I am rendered weak, 1514 01:11:08.079 --> 01:11:11.399 I am, I'm i am. I'm no match to the 1515 01:11:11.520 --> 01:11:13.279 draw of this game. You know. 1516 01:11:13.319 --> 01:11:15.800 It's got like it's got that flat shading and to 1517 01:11:15.960 --> 01:11:20.239 like have a stylish, stylish stylistic excuse me, look at 1518 01:11:20.239 --> 01:11:22.439 like Mars, and that makes it run really well on 1519 01:11:22.479 --> 01:11:25.279 something like the Steam deck. I think, like a real, 1520 01:11:25.560 --> 01:11:27.800 real Dad game should be able to run on a 1521 01:11:27.800 --> 01:11:29.439 lot of different machines. Should be able to run on 1522 01:11:29.439 --> 01:11:30.640 an e machine from Best Buy. 1523 01:11:31.000 --> 01:11:36.279 Yeah about Rush war games that take place on Marsh, Doom, Red. 1524 01:11:36.159 --> 01:11:41.520 Faction, Red Faction, Guerrilla.

I'm sorry the 1527 01:11:48.720 --> 01:11:52.319 first Yeah, yeah, not Doom. Doom Now, Doom is very Mars. 1528 01:11:52.479 --> 01:11:56.199 I mean Doom the twenty sixty one feels more Marszie, right, 1529 01:11:56.199 --> 01:11:59.399 if you you could play the original Doom and not 1530 01:11:59.520 --> 01:12:01.560 really no, you're on Mars. Let's be clear. 1531 01:12:01.640 --> 01:12:04.239 Yeah, wa right, do play because it's a cool idea 1532 01:12:04.399 --> 01:12:07.000 of like unleashing hell because you were digging for energy 1533 01:12:07.039 --> 01:12:08.720 on Mars, like that idea. 1534 01:12:09.079 --> 01:12:12.920 Yeah, the O G doo.

Just go in the order that I 1579 01:14:19.119 --> 01:14:22.359 wrote it here. Nintendo Switch two's phenomenal launch continues as 1580 01:14:22.399 --> 01:14:25.279 it clears ten million more than PS four and PS 1581 01:14:25.359 --> 01:14:28.159 five the Nintendo switched and that's like. As of this point, 1582 01:14:28.199 --> 01:14:30.880 I should say, the switch to has had a record 1583 01:14:30.960 --> 01:14:34.439 big breaking launch, selling ten point three six million units 1584 01:14:34.479 --> 01:14:37.439 by the end of September, surpassing the launch sales of 1585 01:14:37.439 --> 01:14:40.239 the original Switch PS four and PS five. This led 1586 01:14:40.319 --> 01:14:43.039 Nintendo to raise its hardware forecast for the business year 1587 01:14:43.079 --> 01:14:46.920 to nineteen million units and its operating profit by fifteen 1588 01:14:46.920 --> 01:14:50.199 percent to two point four billion. The America's accounted for 1589 01:14:50.239 --> 01:14:53.119 thirty five percent of Switch to sales and Japan or 1590 01:14:53.319 --> 01:14:56.159 twenty two point six percent. That's three point six eight 1591 01:14:56.199 --> 01:15:00.439 and two point three five million, respectively, despite stock straits 1592 01:15:00.439 --> 01:15:03.039 in Japan that continue continues to still very well there. 1593 01:15:04.279 --> 01:15:07.399 This is, you know, probably worth pointing out the like 1594 01:15:07.960 --> 01:15:11.079 the Switch two has been readily available and something like 1595 01:15:11.079 --> 01:15:13.920 the PS five was hardware constrained, but you still have 1596 01:15:13.960 --> 01:15:15.520 to sell these things when you put them out, and 1597 01:15:15.600 --> 01:15:18.159 it is doing just about as well as it could be. 1598 01:15:18.560 --> 01:15:20.560 I think the way to look at this is it 1599 01:15:20.600 --> 01:15:23.640 has certainly continued the momentum that the Switch one built. 1600 01:15:23.720 --> 01:15:27.239 It didn't miss a step, and it seems, you know, 1601 01:15:27.840 --> 01:15:30.840 for all intents and purposes like it is going to 1602 01:15:30.880 --> 01:15:33.720 do very well as long as it can maintain this rate. 1603 01:15:33.800 --> 01:15:36.760 That's still there's still questions there, but early on people 1604 01:15:36.760 --> 01:15:39.399 were wondering, hey, higher prices, all this other stuff. These 1605 01:15:39.479 --> 01:15:43.399 numbers continue to say that doesn't matter, and people are 1606 01:15:43.439 --> 01:15:43.960 showing up for. 1607 01:15:43.960 --> 01:15:45.159 The switch to right. 1608 01:15:45.720 --> 01:15:48.520 You know, so far, the console itself hasn't had to 1609 01:15:48.840 --> 01:15:51.039 you know, there's the initial high price, but they haven't 1610 01:15:51.159 --> 01:15:54.359 raised it yet, even though they were flirting with that. 1611 01:15:54.520 --> 01:15:56.199 I know for a lot of people it's like, oh, this, 1612 01:15:56.439 --> 01:15:58.119 you know, first year of software is as good as 1613 01:15:58.119 --> 01:16:02.159 the switch ones. Well, sure, almost nothing is, but just 1614 01:16:02.199 --> 01:16:05.600 looking at itself, I mean, you know, Mario Kart World. 1615 01:16:05.680 --> 01:16:06.920 I know, like there's some people like, oh, I know 1616 01:16:07.079 --> 01:16:08.800 this is good, but it's still a good game, and 1617 01:16:08.840 --> 01:16:12.880 it's a Mario card bonanza. It's fantastic. Some of these 1618 01:16:12.880 --> 01:16:16.319 switch To editions have been fun Pokemon Legendsza. I know 1619 01:16:16.359 --> 01:16:18.960 that's on the you know, the switch one, but for me, 1620 01:16:19.000 --> 01:16:20.840 I think a lot of people that's a switch To game. 1621 01:16:21.159 --> 01:16:22.760 It's a ton of fun there, and there's just been 1622 01:16:23.680 --> 01:16:25.760 you know, I think they've been benefiting so much from 1623 01:16:25.760 --> 01:16:29.159 a lot of these heavy hitting andy games coming out 1624 01:16:29.560 --> 01:16:32.680 in this launch window, like Soak Song and like Haiti 1625 01:16:32.720 --> 01:16:35.119 Su and even I think Ballpit I heard is very 1626 01:16:35.119 --> 01:16:37.840 good on a switch To. Like you know, I've been 1627 01:16:37.840 --> 01:16:40.159 playing my switch To NonStop. I've been feeling very good 1628 01:16:40.199 --> 01:16:44.159 about it. Yeah, and not a spoil a story. We're 1629 01:16:44.159 --> 01:16:45.000 gonna get to you later. 1630 01:16:45.119 --> 01:16:49.079 But Animal Crossing is looming in the background, and I 1631 01:16:49.079 --> 01:16:50.920 could see folks wanting to pick up a switch To 1632 01:16:51.119 --> 01:16:55.079 before it gets like super insane or maybe more challenging 1633 01:16:55.119 --> 01:16:55.720 to get one. 1634 01:16:56.600 --> 01:16:59.960 Yeah, like they could go up. Yeah, I actually don't understand. 1635 01:17:01.600 --> 01:17:05.319 I don't get it. I don't understand. Why don't I 1636 01:17:05.319 --> 01:17:07.880 don't understand. This thing costs so much more than it 1637 01:17:08.000 --> 01:17:11.319 rightfully should. There's nothing really to play on it. 1638 01:17:11.760 --> 01:17:15.840 Oh there's nothing to bonanza so good. 1639 01:17:16.039 --> 01:17:18.800 That's not true anymore as much as it was at launch. 1640 01:17:20.479 --> 01:17:22.359 It's just a lot of money. I just thought people 1641 01:17:22.399 --> 01:17:24.600 have no money. I was under the assumption no one 1642 01:17:24.600 --> 01:17:27.439 had any money, and I don't. I think there's something 1643 01:17:27.439 --> 01:17:29.000 that's still not squaring about this. 1644 01:17:29.079 --> 01:17:31.479 I mean, my point of view, the price of this 1645 01:17:31.520 --> 01:17:33.640 thing is looking pretty good compared to an eight hundred 1646 01:17:33.680 --> 01:17:36.199 dollars PlayStation five Pro or whatever, right. 1647 01:17:36.439 --> 01:17:40.039 I mean, I guess, but not compared to like a 1648 01:17:40.159 --> 01:17:44.039 Steam Deck. I mean, I realized it's it's the it's 1649 01:17:44.079 --> 01:17:46.880 not they're Nintendo games. You can't play them anywhere else. 1650 01:17:46.920 --> 01:17:47.279 I get it. 1651 01:17:47.560 --> 01:17:49.920 I think with a Steam Deck, for as popular as 1652 01:17:49.920 --> 01:17:53.600 they've become, even with the normies out there, there is 1653 01:17:53.640 --> 01:17:56.279 still that added layer of like, oh, it's a PC, 1654 01:17:57.359 --> 01:17:59.920 I'm playing PC games. I'm still kind of intimidated by 1655 01:18:00.680 --> 01:18:01.279 versus like. 1656 01:18:01.199 --> 01:18:04.319 Yeah, there's the momentum of like having the switch already 1657 01:18:04.319 --> 01:18:06.319 and probably having a lot of games for it, and 1658 01:18:06.359 --> 01:18:08.159 this thing playing it better, so like there's. 1659 01:18:08.359 --> 01:18:12.640 Better than the first switch. Well that so that is 1660 01:18:12.760 --> 01:18:14.880 almost exclusively because this is. 1661 01:18:15.000 --> 01:18:19.399 More readily available. Yes, the supply is better. Switch one 1662 01:18:19.399 --> 01:18:22.119 probably would have done equal to this, But I think 1663 01:18:22.119 --> 01:18:24.960 they're I think that that this system is the first 1664 01:18:24.960 --> 01:18:28.319 one really ever to kind of hit what is possible 1665 01:18:28.359 --> 01:18:31.039 if you have unlimited supply. This is about as fast 1666 01:18:31.079 --> 01:18:32.920 as you could sell if you're one of these devices 1667 01:18:32.960 --> 01:18:37.640 at this price, So you know it's it's going to 1668 01:18:37.640 --> 01:18:40.520 continue to do fine. I think it's just gonna probably 1669 01:18:40.520 --> 01:18:42.760 pick up pace because, as you said back, the case 1670 01:18:43.199 --> 01:18:45.920 is not wasn't great for it early on, but all 1671 01:18:45.960 --> 01:18:48.920 the people that don't care or recognize that they're getting 1672 01:18:48.920 --> 01:18:50.600 it now will be worth it because they'll have it 1673 01:18:50.640 --> 01:18:53.439 for Bonanza and Mario Kart, and then they'll already have 1674 01:18:53.479 --> 01:18:55.119 the device when all these other games come along. 1675 01:18:55.119 --> 01:18:57.560 Well, all those other games are coming, and that probably 1676 01:18:57.560 --> 01:18:59.359 will win a lot of people over. I do wonder 1677 01:18:59.359 --> 01:19:00.279 if Animal cross. 1678 01:19:00.039 --> 01:19:02.640 Seeing getting an update won't move the needle as much 1679 01:19:02.760 --> 01:19:04.920 as I would expect an Animal Crossing thing to do, 1680 01:19:05.000 --> 01:19:05.680 But I don't know. 1681 01:19:05.720 --> 01:19:07.560 Maybe, well, we'll talk about that in a moment. 1682 01:19:07.560 --> 01:19:09.039 Do you think there are a large amount of people 1683 01:19:09.039 --> 01:19:10.760 who are like, I want to get this out because 1684 01:19:10.800 --> 01:19:13.000 I do worry the price is gonna go up. 1685 01:19:13.319 --> 01:19:15.039 I think that's a measurable number. 1686 01:19:15.239 --> 01:19:18.279 Yeah, I think that's a fair number of folk. Yep, 1687 01:19:18.600 --> 01:19:20.880 that may be in tune with the world. 1688 01:19:21.520 --> 01:19:23.079 I think it's hard to think that way for the 1689 01:19:23.159 --> 01:19:26.960 vast majority of people because it's so unpredictable. Although I 1690 01:19:26.960 --> 01:19:29.199 think it's becoming more predictable that prices will go up, 1691 01:19:29.239 --> 01:19:31.399 like every day there's a new reason why it might 1692 01:19:31.439 --> 01:19:35.039 go up. And sure, I think the last update on 1693 01:19:35.119 --> 01:19:38.640 tariffs is that we are back to the original status quo, 1694 01:19:38.800 --> 01:19:42.640 like before what what do you fucking call it? Liberation day? 1695 01:19:42.840 --> 01:19:45.680 Before Liberation Day? Tariffs? Like, so we're back to that point. 1696 01:19:46.640 --> 01:19:49.439 So all those companies that moved production to Vietnam to 1697 01:19:49.479 --> 01:19:52.800 avoid Chinese tariffs are like, well, shit, I guess we 1698 01:19:52.800 --> 01:19:56.399 shouldn't have done that. So does that mean prices will 1699 01:19:56.439 --> 01:19:56.920 go back down? 1700 01:19:57.000 --> 01:19:57.279 No? 1701 01:19:57.279 --> 01:20:01.439 Now, SSDs and memory is gonna get way more expensive. 1702 01:20:01.479 --> 01:20:04.399 I'm gonna say SSTs rams gonna get more expensive, and 1703 01:20:04.439 --> 01:20:06.520 that's just going to keep causing all these things to 1704 01:20:06.520 --> 01:20:07.960 go up in price over and over again. 1705 01:20:08.079 --> 01:20:09.399 So yeah, I. 1706 01:20:10.960 --> 01:20:14.079 Think that the early adopters were always going to show up. 1707 01:20:14.159 --> 01:20:16.279 I think it still is a test this holiday to 1708 01:20:16.279 --> 01:20:18.159 see what happens next for this thing. See if the 1709 01:20:18.159 --> 01:20:19.960 families show up for it at this price. 1710 01:20:20.000 --> 01:20:22.840 Wait till Kirby air Riders comes out. Your son of 1711 01:20:22.880 --> 01:20:25.199 a bitch, that's gonna You're right, it's gonna go wild 1712 01:20:25.319 --> 01:20:27.079 three times as much as they already done. 1713 01:20:27.680 --> 01:20:29.199 Mike, say, bitch the cool way. 1714 01:20:29.800 --> 01:20:35.680 Its lawsuit to get slayered. He kept streaming pirated Switch 1715 01:20:35.720 --> 01:20:38.800 games and taunted, I could do this all day, beauch. 1716 01:20:39.000 --> 01:20:41.079 I think it's what he said, let go. 1717 01:20:41.800 --> 01:20:43.319 Yeah, it did not go great for him. I think 1718 01:20:43.319 --> 01:20:44.600 it would have been better if it was you, Mike. 1719 01:20:44.920 --> 01:20:48.600 Nintendo has won a lawsuit against streamer Jesse Keegan letsa 1720 01:20:48.600 --> 01:20:52.000 say Keegan, also known as every Game Guru, who illegally 1721 01:20:52.000 --> 01:20:55.560 streamed pirated Nintendo games before the release. Keegan had streamed 1722 01:20:55.560 --> 01:20:58.439 at least ten leaked Nintendo games over fifty times since 1723 01:20:58.439 --> 01:21:01.560 twenty twenty two, including Mario Luigi Brothership, which is the 1724 01:21:01.560 --> 01:21:05.199 one that Nintendo focused on. Basically, they won a case 1725 01:21:05.199 --> 01:21:07.640 at court where this guy, now, oh seventeen five hundred 1726 01:21:07.720 --> 01:21:09.479 Nintendo was even like, we could have asked for a 1727 01:21:09.520 --> 01:21:12.600 lot more, but we're just gonna ask for the latest infringement, 1728 01:21:12.880 --> 01:21:15.199 which was Mario and Luigi Brothership. 1729 01:21:16.920 --> 01:21:18.279 This guy really. 1730 01:21:18.039 --> 01:21:21.560 Taunted Nintendo and was saying things like You'll never be 1731 01:21:21.600 --> 01:21:23.560 able to take me down because I have a thousand 1732 01:21:23.640 --> 01:21:25.840 burner accounts on Twitch, So if you take me down, 1733 01:21:25.840 --> 01:21:28.479 I'll just come back and do it again. He also said, 1734 01:21:28.920 --> 01:21:31.399 you don't know about me. You might run a corporation, 1735 01:21:31.840 --> 01:21:34.000 but I quote run the streets. 1736 01:21:34.359 --> 01:21:37.920 Oh my god, Wow, my god. You know what this 1737 01:21:38.319 --> 01:21:40.640 folk heroes out there. You know, I'm live in for 1738 01:21:40.680 --> 01:21:41.399 the rest of us. 1739 01:21:41.520 --> 01:21:44.600 I haven't been on Nintendo's side lately with like a 1740 01:21:44.600 --> 01:21:47.760 couple of their other tigious things, but you know what, 1741 01:21:47.840 --> 01:21:49.159 I'm on their side of this one. 1742 01:21:49.680 --> 01:21:52.960 It's just like the dumbest criminals, like the dumbest like, 1743 01:21:53.039 --> 01:21:54.960 oh my god. 1744 01:21:54.680 --> 01:21:57.640 These are they're they're warrior poets, just out there fighting 1745 01:21:57.680 --> 01:21:59.640 for us, trying to show us how it's done. 1746 01:22:00.119 --> 01:22:02.359 These guys who we have on the streets then fucked. 1747 01:22:02.399 --> 01:22:04.680 I mean, yeah, the streets might be fucked. Actually getting 1748 01:22:04.720 --> 01:22:07.439 off at seventeen to five doesn't sound so bad. 1749 01:22:07.680 --> 01:22:10.680 Right, because a lot of others in similar situations. I 1750 01:22:10.720 --> 01:22:13.319 guess this is like someone who was kind of an 1751 01:22:13.439 --> 01:22:15.520 end user, although he was creating content, so that's a 1752 01:22:15.520 --> 01:22:19.119 little bit different. Nintendo typically doesn't go after end users. 1753 01:22:19.119 --> 01:22:23.159 They go after the distributors, these websites, these repositories. So 1754 01:22:23.439 --> 01:22:26.279 those ones have been charged millions of dollars just one 1755 01:22:26.479 --> 01:22:27.359 person who was. 1756 01:22:27.760 --> 01:22:30.640 He's just annoying. He was just annoying, right, He. 1757 01:22:30.640 --> 01:22:33.760 Was just annoying, and now his wages will be garnished 1758 01:22:33.760 --> 01:22:36.279 for the rest of his life. He basically is a 1759 01:22:36.399 --> 01:22:39.239 Nintendo Nintendo is a contractor. They just get his money, 1760 01:22:39.840 --> 01:22:41.159 and so, yeah, this guy's not going to be in 1761 01:22:41.199 --> 01:22:45.880 that situation. Animal Crusty New Horizons is getting that Nintendo 1762 01:22:45.880 --> 01:22:50.359 Switch to Edition and a huge free update switch To Edition. Basically, 1763 01:22:50.359 --> 01:22:54.479 it's tacking on a five dollars up up charge so 1764 01:22:54.560 --> 01:22:56.520 you can get the new version, the switch to Edition 1765 01:22:57.399 --> 01:23:00.279 complete with the game for sixty five dollars. It will 1766 01:23:01.000 --> 01:23:04.960 it will have enhanced resolution, JOYCN two mouse controls, expanded 1767 01:23:05.039 --> 01:23:08.840 online play for up to twelve players, and a megaphone 1768 01:23:08.840 --> 01:23:11.399 item for in game communication where you can like, yell 1769 01:23:11.479 --> 01:23:13.439 the name of one of your villagers and they'll be like, 1770 01:23:13.439 --> 01:23:14.159 I'm over here. 1771 01:23:15.079 --> 01:23:15.439 I don't know. 1772 01:23:15.439 --> 01:23:17.199 It feels like that could just be a menu option too. 1773 01:23:18.039 --> 01:23:20.439 And there's switch to camera support, so that's like the 1774 01:23:20.479 --> 01:23:24.079 list of improvements. We've seen other games get those improvements 1775 01:23:24.119 --> 01:23:26.159 for free, so this is. 1776 01:23:26.079 --> 01:23:26.840 A little bit weird. 1777 01:23:26.880 --> 01:23:29.640 But also five dollars feels like, well, they've charged more 1778 01:23:29.720 --> 01:23:30.640 than that for others. 1779 01:23:30.680 --> 01:23:31.880 I don't know. I'm in between on this. 1780 01:23:32.520 --> 01:23:34.520 I guess I was a little bit excited to find 1781 01:23:34.560 --> 01:23:37.359 out they are still doing stuff for that Animal Crossing game. 1782 01:23:37.600 --> 01:23:40.000 Right though. And then there's the free update which adds 1783 01:23:40.039 --> 01:23:40.520 a bunch of. 1784 01:23:40.439 --> 01:23:43.199 Stuff yeah no, yeah, and you can go over that 1785 01:23:43.239 --> 01:23:45.439 because I think that's the thing here. Is that really 1786 01:23:45.479 --> 01:23:48.319 all the stuff that like the Animal Crossing heads that 1787 01:23:48.399 --> 01:23:51.880 I know the people who aren't going to upgrade to 1788 01:23:51.880 --> 01:23:55.159 a switch to until they need to because of Animal Crossing. 1789 01:23:55.239 --> 01:23:57.319 I think, you know, even just I was talking to 1790 01:23:57.359 --> 01:23:59.720 them out like a Halloween party, they're gonna be fine 1791 01:23:59.760 --> 01:24:03.479 just with the switch one still because all the actual 1792 01:24:03.520 --> 01:24:06.199 news stuff they care about is still coming to that 1793 01:24:06.279 --> 01:24:07.119 version of the game. 1794 01:24:07.880 --> 01:24:08.079 Yeah. 1795 01:24:08.119 --> 01:24:10.079 I think the atendo knows that. So this to me, 1796 01:24:10.159 --> 01:24:13.000 feels like an acknowledgement that maybe this team, who I 1797 01:24:13.039 --> 01:24:17.079 believe is the Splatoon team, maybe they were prioritizing a 1798 01:24:17.239 --> 01:24:20.880 Splatoon first because both of those franchises are super important at. 1799 01:24:20.880 --> 01:24:22.720 Nintendo now, and they're like, let's get let's get. 1800 01:24:22.560 --> 01:24:25.039 Splatoon out early and then we can wait on the 1801 01:24:25.079 --> 01:24:27.399 next version of Animal Crossing. So they kind of flipped 1802 01:24:27.399 --> 01:24:29.760 it should have been a new Animal Crossing first because 1803 01:24:29.960 --> 01:24:33.560 that the most recently got Splittoon three from them. Yes, 1804 01:24:33.560 --> 01:24:35.159 some of the things in this free update, this is 1805 01:24:35.319 --> 01:24:38.159 version three point zero. It will be released for both 1806 01:24:38.199 --> 01:24:41.239 the Switch and Switch to versions. It includes a new 1807 01:24:41.279 --> 01:24:46.119 hotel run by Kapin and his family. Increased home storage 1808 01:24:46.119 --> 01:24:47.920 so now you can have nine thousand items I think 1809 01:24:47.920 --> 01:24:51.199 it was five thousand before. A new dream location called 1810 01:24:51.359 --> 01:24:55.119 Slumber Island for creating multiple islands. You can like then 1811 01:24:55.439 --> 01:24:58.359 like edit those islands, like where the waterfall is and 1812 01:24:58.359 --> 01:24:59.880 stuff like that in a way that maybe you couldn't. 1813 01:25:00.119 --> 01:25:00.319 Four. 1814 01:25:01.319 --> 01:25:04.159 Let's see here new collaboration content with brands like Lego 1815 01:25:04.720 --> 01:25:07.159 but also the Legend of Zelda. There's and like just 1816 01:25:07.239 --> 01:25:11.319 generalized Nintendo stuff, and that includes if you're an NSO member, 1817 01:25:11.359 --> 01:25:13.359 you could bring a retro console into your house and 1818 01:25:13.399 --> 01:25:16.760 play old video games inside of Animal Crossing. I think 1819 01:25:16.760 --> 01:25:19.199 they said it was like one game per console though, 1820 01:25:19.199 --> 01:25:21.800 and I was like Ice Climbers for the nes So, 1821 01:25:21.960 --> 01:25:23.319 I don't know, I'm trying to get my hopes up 1822 01:25:23.359 --> 01:25:23.840 too much of that. 1823 01:25:24.000 --> 01:25:25.960 Yeah, yeah, I mean that was really neat in the 1824 01:25:26.000 --> 01:25:26.680 GameCube game. 1825 01:25:27.079 --> 01:25:28.319 I'm so glad to have it back. 1826 01:25:28.359 --> 01:25:30.079 It's it's a little different when I could just push 1827 01:25:30.159 --> 01:25:32.239 the home menu and now go to my NSO thing 1828 01:25:32.319 --> 01:25:32.760 and play. 1829 01:25:32.840 --> 01:25:33.079 Yeah. 1830 01:25:33.439 --> 01:25:36.800 Yeah, but still it's neat having it in there. 1831 01:25:36.880 --> 01:25:38.720 Boy, it's it's wild. I was pretty I was. 1832 01:25:38.800 --> 01:25:41.119 I was pretty surprised by this because they haven't really 1833 01:25:41.239 --> 01:25:43.640 updated this game much. When I was a giant hit, 1834 01:25:44.079 --> 01:25:46.399 I assumed that it was just like, yeah, let's make 1835 01:25:46.560 --> 01:25:49.399 the next one and maybe that'll be the big twenty 1836 01:25:49.439 --> 01:25:52.359 twenty six game. Then you know, that'll be the flagship. 1837 01:25:52.680 --> 01:25:55.399 So now getting this, I'm like, Okay, so I guess 1838 01:25:55.600 --> 01:25:56.239 maybe we. 1839 01:25:56.119 --> 01:25:58.000 Aren't getting Animal Crossing next year? 1840 01:25:58.159 --> 01:26:00.199 Is that reading too much into it? 1841 01:26:00.319 --> 01:26:02.399 I don't want to feel that way, But what is 1842 01:26:02.479 --> 01:26:07.359 the twenty twenty six game? Because I'm still life baby. 1843 01:26:06.760 --> 01:26:08.600 I guess yeah, it's all about that, right, Maybe they 1844 01:26:08.600 --> 01:26:10.640 do already have Tomadacci life. That's a good point, and 1845 01:26:10.680 --> 01:26:14.279 maybe they are thinking those overlap too much. I get 1846 01:26:14.279 --> 01:26:16.880 the sense that this a lot of the stuff in 1847 01:26:16.920 --> 01:26:20.920 here is probably updates that were always going to happen 1848 01:26:21.199 --> 01:26:24.000 for when this was probably a switch pro and it 1849 01:26:24.079 --> 01:26:25.920 was going to come out years ago, and then they 1850 01:26:25.920 --> 01:26:28.079 delayed the switch pro and then ended up not doing it. 1851 01:26:28.119 --> 01:26:30.479 They did a switch to instead. They're like, let's just 1852 01:26:30.600 --> 01:26:32.880 save the animal crossing update for that first year. So 1853 01:26:32.880 --> 01:26:34.079 I think a lot of this work could have been 1854 01:26:34.159 --> 01:26:36.880 done for a while. Obviously they would have taken that 1855 01:26:36.920 --> 01:26:39.479 time and done more to it to sort of specify 1856 01:26:39.520 --> 01:26:42.960 it specifically for the switch TO. I guess what I'm 1857 01:26:42.960 --> 01:26:45.039 getting at is there's a possibility that this work has 1858 01:26:45.079 --> 01:26:47.039 been done for a minute and that they are also 1859 01:26:47.119 --> 01:26:49.279 working on a new animal crossing that could come out 1860 01:26:49.319 --> 01:26:53.399 as early as like early twenty twenty seven. So that's 1861 01:26:53.439 --> 01:26:55.560 possibly hopium, but maybe that's the case. 1862 01:26:55.560 --> 01:26:55.920 We'll see. 1863 01:26:55.960 --> 01:26:58.119 Yeah, by the way, you see there's a new metroid 1864 01:26:58.119 --> 01:27:00.800 prime Fortow that looks amazing, and I'm assuming everyone the 1865 01:27:00.800 --> 01:27:02.760 internet is complaining about it or something. 1866 01:27:03.319 --> 01:27:06.520 I definitely was like, I definitely glanced at the comments 1867 01:27:06.520 --> 01:27:08.159 and being like, all right, what are they complaining about. 1868 01:27:08.199 --> 01:27:10.079 I have not seen anything yet, But you're right, that 1869 01:27:10.119 --> 01:27:15.520 does not mean that the gosh, it's it's a month. 1870 01:27:15.600 --> 01:27:20.560 Wait today, like an hour ago, I'm seeing the trailer. Yeah, trailer, Mike, 1871 01:27:20.600 --> 01:27:21.520 are you shaking? 1872 01:27:21.760 --> 01:27:23.119 I'm going to be able to play a new Metro 1873 01:27:23.199 --> 01:27:25.359 Prime in a month. I am so freaking excited. Looks 1874 01:27:25.399 --> 01:27:28.640 so freaking good. Oh my god, this looks so I 1875 01:27:28.720 --> 01:27:30.560 think it came out at the same time that Dick 1876 01:27:30.640 --> 01:27:31.199 Cheney did. 1877 01:27:31.920 --> 01:27:36.880 Yeah, one door closes, that's how that. Huh, gosh, it 1878 01:27:37.000 --> 01:27:40.479 just keeps on giving. The desert doesn't have as many 1879 01:27:40.520 --> 01:27:40.960 things in it. 1880 01:27:41.520 --> 01:27:44.079 Yeah, it's like she goes through it in like two seconds. 1881 01:27:44.119 --> 01:27:47.119 It's amazing and it looks super fun and gosh, the 1882 01:27:47.760 --> 01:27:49.840 when when you shoot. She shoots out of this tunnel 1883 01:27:49.960 --> 01:27:52.680 into the desert and it's the coolest looking tunnel I've 1884 01:27:52.760 --> 01:27:55.760 ever seen. There's all these middle flappy things like, and 1885 01:27:55.800 --> 01:27:58.680 she like shoots through. She doesn't cure a slide. There 1886 01:27:58.760 --> 01:28:04.079 is so much do to this. Oh yeah, I cannot. 1887 01:28:04.840 --> 01:28:11.119 Oh, I don't like that on your SI bagel four bagels, 1888 01:28:11.199 --> 01:28:15.560 let's go.

It seems 1981 01:33:17.039 --> 01:33:19.760 like people raised enough of a stink that this relatively 1982 01:33:19.880 --> 01:33:23.800 rare thing of the USPTO looking at one that they 1983 01:33:23.800 --> 01:33:26.560 approved and re examining it is going to take place. 1984 01:33:26.920 --> 01:33:30.359 So what the next steps here are I don't know, 1985 01:33:31.399 --> 01:33:33.560 but I guess that there's a chance that Nintendo could 1986 01:33:33.560 --> 01:33:35.399 lose this, not that they were ever going to be 1987 01:33:35.439 --> 01:33:39.119 able to like wield it in a broad way, although 1988 01:33:39.159 --> 01:33:40.600 you know, if you have it, you could sue anyone 1989 01:33:40.640 --> 01:33:42.159 and claim this is your basis and then it has 1990 01:33:42.199 --> 01:33:44.520 to go to court and that could cause costs for people. 1991 01:33:44.600 --> 01:33:46.960 So they could have still weaponized it. So maybe it's 1992 01:33:46.960 --> 01:33:50.039 a good thing that there's a chance the USPTO will 1993 01:33:50.039 --> 01:33:53.920 make them think twice before doing that. Nintendo is releasing 1994 01:33:53.960 --> 01:33:56.640 a Zelda Breath of the Wild vinyl box set less 1995 01:33:56.680 --> 01:33:58.600 engaged demand for physical soundtracks. 1996 01:33:58.600 --> 01:33:58.800 Here. 1997 01:33:59.079 --> 01:34:04.119 Oh, it's thirty four tracks for the double LP, that's 1998 01:34:04.199 --> 01:34:07.479 fifty dollars. There's an eight LP set with one hundred 1999 01:34:07.479 --> 01:34:10.439 and thirty tracks for one hundred and ninety five dollars. 2000 01:34:11.239 --> 01:34:14.359 This releases a test case for Nintendo, according to Bill Trennan, 2001 01:34:14.800 --> 01:34:18.159 vice president of Player and Product Experience, to gauge demand 2002 01:34:18.199 --> 01:34:20.920 for physical soundtracks in the US and to bring video 2003 01:34:20.960 --> 01:34:23.920 game music to a broader audience. Trennon also mentioned the 2004 01:34:24.000 --> 01:34:27.960 Nintendo Music app blah blah blah. This is weird because 2005 01:34:28.039 --> 01:34:33.279 Nintendo has not really ever done this. There's Pokemon. Pokemon 2006 01:34:33.399 --> 01:34:34.920 has had some. 2007 01:34:34.960 --> 01:34:37.439 Soundtracks at least here separate enough, right. 2008 01:34:37.279 --> 01:34:40.439 It's separate enough that, like, you know, although maybe it's 2009 01:34:40.479 --> 01:34:43.039 not separate, maybe the good experiences over there translate because 2010 01:34:43.119 --> 01:34:45.960 Nintendo's involved in the business side of the Pokemon company, 2011 01:34:46.159 --> 01:34:48.279 so maybe they heard good things and it set their 2012 01:34:48.319 --> 01:34:51.399 mind a mind at ease. I have always been curious 2013 01:34:51.399 --> 01:34:53.560 why Nintendo hasn't done this. It felt like a like 2014 01:34:53.640 --> 01:34:57.760 easy merchandising. I assumed it was them being concerned about 2015 01:34:57.840 --> 01:35:00.760 some of the laws around if you release music physically 2016 01:35:00.760 --> 01:35:04.479 in America, then you become open to some rules about 2017 01:35:04.479 --> 01:35:07.520 being able to have your music covered illegally. Who That 2018 01:35:07.560 --> 01:35:11.199 was always speculation. This should kind of be a good 2019 01:35:11.319 --> 01:35:13.800 opportunity for people to be like, yeah, we really want this, 2020 01:35:14.239 --> 01:35:16.119 and maybe Nintendo will start doing a lot more of it. 2021 01:35:16.680 --> 01:35:19.039 I don't know, Mike, what do you think Nintendo music 2022 01:35:19.119 --> 01:35:20.520 fan vinyl record? 2023 01:35:21.279 --> 01:35:24.720 I mean, I think it's gonna be lucrative enough for them, right, 2024 01:35:24.760 --> 01:35:28.159 I mean, you know you sell calendars, right, like, why 2025 01:35:28.199 --> 01:35:30.800 not also do these vinyl things. They're very they are trendy, 2026 01:35:30.840 --> 01:35:33.159 and they're fun because they almost more so than a 2027 01:35:33.199 --> 01:35:35.760 thing to play music. They're collectible, they look nice, they 2028 01:35:35.760 --> 01:35:39.239 have great art. It's just neat to own these things. Yeah, 2029 01:35:39.239 --> 01:35:40.640 I think this is going to do well. I'm just 2030 01:35:40.640 --> 01:35:44.199 going to be a lot more of them, even though 2031 01:35:44.199 --> 01:35:46.279 like a Breath of the Wild one doesn't necessarily do a. 2032 01:35:46.199 --> 01:35:46.920 Ton for me. 2033 01:35:47.239 --> 01:35:49.279 I like that game's music in the game, it's not 2034 01:35:49.319 --> 01:35:53.520 necessarily something aside from that one trailer track, right, that's 2035 01:35:53.560 --> 01:35:55.720 not even in the game. It's not music that I'm 2036 01:35:55.720 --> 01:35:59.640 seeking out outside of the game constantly, you know. I like, 2037 01:35:59.720 --> 01:36:01.880 I bought a bunch of like kind of like third 2038 01:36:02.039 --> 01:36:06.319 party unofficial Nintendo vinyls constantly because they look cool and 2039 01:36:06.359 --> 01:36:07.880 the music is amazing, and that. 2040 01:36:07.840 --> 01:36:12.000 What happens Awakening CD set from Japan, because they sell 2041 01:36:12.000 --> 01:36:14.239 these things in Japan, you haven't brought them here. 2042 01:36:14.279 --> 01:36:16.960 Yeah, So I would happily give that money to Nintendo 2043 01:36:17.439 --> 01:36:19.399 instead if they just you know, put the effort in 2044 01:36:19.800 --> 01:36:21.359 and make you know, And I hope they do, and 2045 01:36:21.359 --> 01:36:23.439 I hope they like go back. Hope it's not just 2046 01:36:23.800 --> 01:36:27.600 for their most recent biggest hits. I want them to 2047 01:36:27.880 --> 01:36:31.279 give me a star Tropics vinyls things like that, right. 2048 01:36:31.199 --> 01:36:32.600 Have they have? 2049 01:36:32.720 --> 01:36:35.720 I imagining Splatoon being on vinyl before. 2050 01:36:36.359 --> 01:36:38.079 It might have been, it would have been just in Japan. 2051 01:36:38.439 --> 01:36:40.720 Well not maybe not just in Japan, but certainly not 2052 01:36:41.159 --> 01:36:43.319 in America or the West broadly. 2053 01:36:43.319 --> 01:36:44.159 Spell it makes sense. 2054 01:36:44.199 --> 01:36:46.239 You can just see them doing the fun color stuff 2055 01:36:46.239 --> 01:36:49.319 with the line all right, yeah, yeah, definitely. I do 2056 01:36:49.399 --> 01:36:52.439 think it's much more of a collectibles kind of thing, sure, 2057 01:36:53.279 --> 01:36:55.119 you know what I mean, like, uh yeah, I feel 2058 01:36:55.119 --> 01:36:57.840 like starting with the vinyls yeah to me, like that 2059 01:36:57.960 --> 01:37:01.399 is the thing that has transcended, like the fun function yeah, 2060 01:37:01.439 --> 01:37:04.760 and more the display, you know, charm of it all. 2061 01:37:04.920 --> 01:37:05.520 It's all I mean. 2062 01:37:05.560 --> 01:37:07.920 Jeff got me a record player a few years ago 2063 01:37:07.960 --> 01:37:11.760 with my birthday, and I just dove very deep into vinyl. 2064 01:37:12.279 --> 01:37:14.239 Do you do it a lot? Do you play vinyl 2065 01:37:14.359 --> 01:37:14.720 a lot? 2066 01:37:14.800 --> 01:37:16.800 I don't play vinyl lot. I do sometimes, but like 2067 01:37:16.840 --> 01:37:19.039 you know, definitely not a lot. Definitely not have to 2068 01:37:19.159 --> 01:37:21.560 justify the money I have spent on the records themselves. 2069 01:37:21.600 --> 01:37:23.560 But actually it feels good. 2070 01:37:23.600 --> 01:37:24.920 It's fun. They do look nice. 2071 01:37:24.960 --> 01:37:25.159 I have. 2072 01:37:25.479 --> 01:37:29.279 I like having this great box of my records and 2073 01:37:29.760 --> 01:37:32.319 you know, it's everything from some weird Jimmy Buffett thing 2074 01:37:32.359 --> 01:37:35.840 I saw I found a cheap too, you know, the 2075 01:37:36.159 --> 01:37:39.399 soundtrack the Star Fox sixty four and then some weird 2076 01:37:39.439 --> 01:37:41.279 out things of iron made in It's just like this 2077 01:37:41.359 --> 01:37:42.800 is this is me at a box. 2078 01:37:42.880 --> 01:37:46.399 I like that? Okay cool. Uh. 2079 01:37:46.760 --> 01:37:50.079 Digital ownership must be respected, says the UK Parliament as 2080 01:37:50.079 --> 01:37:52.439 it debates to Stop Killing Games campaign. 2081 01:37:53.000 --> 01:37:55.359 Uh. Really there was a sum back and forth here. 2082 01:37:55.359 --> 01:37:57.479 At the point is is that this is actually being 2083 01:37:57.560 --> 01:37:59.920 discussed by people who have their hands on the leave 2084 01:37:59.920 --> 01:38:05.279 of powers in some of these major markets, and like 2085 01:38:06.039 --> 01:38:09.560 the specifics are still being argued. There's one side that's 2086 01:38:09.560 --> 01:38:12.199 certainly like, hey, to do anything about this, we would 2087 01:38:12.239 --> 01:38:15.159 have to change consumer laws and we really don't want 2088 01:38:15.159 --> 01:38:16.920 to have to dive into that. A lot of people 2089 01:38:17.079 --> 01:38:19.680 arguing that the current consumer laws don't do enough to 2090 01:38:19.680 --> 01:38:22.119 protect people who spend money on a product that could 2091 01:38:22.159 --> 01:38:24.720 be taken away from them if these companies do not 2092 01:38:24.920 --> 01:38:27.560 adequately do the work to ensure that a game is 2093 01:38:27.600 --> 01:38:32.199 playable after the servers go offline. All that stuff not settled, 2094 01:38:32.239 --> 01:38:34.439 and if anything, it seems like the government doesn't seem 2095 01:38:34.439 --> 01:38:37.680 like it's going to budge on these specifics. I think 2096 01:38:37.840 --> 01:38:41.119 what is happening here though, is certainly these companies have 2097 01:38:41.159 --> 01:38:43.039 got to be worried that it's even gotten this far 2098 01:38:43.119 --> 01:38:45.960 to the point where the UK Parliament is discussing it 2099 01:38:46.039 --> 01:38:50.239 openly publicly as a matter of public debate, and there's 2100 01:38:50.239 --> 01:38:52.840 a strong chance that this will just force these companies 2101 01:38:53.239 --> 01:38:56.640 to realize, oh, the money we were spending to do 2102 01:38:56.680 --> 01:39:01.439 this is actually worth it because it avoids regulation forcing 2103 01:39:01.520 --> 01:39:03.279 us to do even more that we wouldn't want to do. 2104 01:39:03.600 --> 01:39:05.479 So let's just kind of step up our game a 2105 01:39:05.520 --> 01:39:08.479 little bit. We've already seen Ubisoft bring uh. I think 2106 01:39:08.640 --> 01:39:11.039 The Crew or The Crew two, one of those games 2107 01:39:11.359 --> 01:39:13.479 got updated to have a little bit more of an 2108 01:39:13.479 --> 01:39:14.399 offline mode. 2109 01:39:14.840 --> 01:39:14.960 Uh. 2110 01:39:15.159 --> 01:39:17.000 And that seems to be it seems to have been 2111 01:39:17.000 --> 01:39:20.520 a direct response to this, So some just get a 2112 01:39:20.560 --> 01:39:22.279 little loud and you might be able to see some 2113 01:39:22.319 --> 01:39:24.319 improvements to the way that this world works. 2114 01:39:24.760 --> 01:39:26.399 Uh. And I think that's some good news there. 2115 01:39:26.479 --> 01:39:29.800 Hey. Also, if you're in America, fucking go vote. 2116 01:39:29.840 --> 01:39:31.279 Yeah you can vote today. 2117 01:39:31.319 --> 01:39:36.680 Yeah, yeah that I'm allowed to vote in the New 2118 01:39:36.760 --> 01:39:37.640 York election. 2119 01:39:37.880 --> 01:39:43.000 Right, Yeah, you're just there're allowed. Yeah. Listen, you tell 2120 01:39:43.000 --> 01:39:45.239 them you had three bagels. They will probably insist that 2121 01:39:45.279 --> 01:39:47.720 you that you vote. Yeah, every didn't vote while you 2122 01:39:47.760 --> 01:39:48.119 were there? 2123 01:39:48.319 --> 01:39:51.279 What the it's right, what the heck your ballot was 2124 01:39:51.319 --> 01:39:51.920 in the bagel. 2125 01:39:52.000 --> 01:39:52.560 It's all good. 2126 01:39:53.680 --> 01:39:58.000 Ballot back Clark, Can I move over there and open 2127 01:39:58.119 --> 01:40:00.600 up a bagel place called Bagel Ballot. We'll have like 2128 01:40:00.600 --> 01:40:02.800 the hanging Chad will be our signature bagel. 2129 01:40:03.479 --> 01:40:07.319 Oh man, hot res. I just I just like a 2130 01:40:07.560 --> 01:40:10.439 like a like a voting themed bagel story. 2131 01:40:11.319 --> 01:40:19.199 Yeah, a pizza come out, come out that voting. It'll 2132 01:40:19.239 --> 01:40:23.560 be fun, deconstructed like that back of art. 2133 01:40:23.600 --> 01:40:27.399 It's not fair. So also, were you implying Mike that 2134 01:40:27.439 --> 01:40:30.840 you're moving in with Baclar. That's the least of this 2135 01:40:30.960 --> 01:40:35.479 stories problem. He said that Backlar is going to adopt him. Fine, 2136 01:40:35.640 --> 01:40:38.000 we can. We can skip that part of it. That's 2137 01:40:38.039 --> 01:40:40.960 the easiest to believe. The least believable part is that 2138 01:40:40.960 --> 01:40:44.279 we're opening a bagel store that we are competing with 2139 01:40:44.399 --> 01:40:48.000 every corner in New Jersey and New York. I have 2140 01:40:48.039 --> 01:40:49.039 the hanging chad. 2141 01:40:49.199 --> 01:40:53.520 What the hanging chad? Or our very special pizza bagel 2142 01:40:53.960 --> 01:40:59.079 the dominion voting scandal, that's my favorite. That that's a 2143 01:40:59.119 --> 01:41:04.039 hot ref to working the imagine imagine the lines on 2144 01:41:04.119 --> 01:41:05.000 election day. 2145 01:41:06.239 --> 01:41:12.199 Imagine imagining going out of business. 2146 01:41:12.479 --> 01:41:16.640 And then Mike, you could also run a schmear campaign 2147 01:41:17.319 --> 01:41:29.760 O a big way, jan Ship, Come I got one 2148 01:41:29.800 --> 01:41:33.960 of those a week. Come on, wow, I feel like 2149 01:41:34.000 --> 01:41:35.239 it was a million dollar joke. 2150 01:41:35.439 --> 01:41:39.560 Mike Man, unacceptable that you didn't think of that first. 2151 01:41:39.760 --> 01:41:41.079 Came every other way. 2152 01:41:41.279 --> 01:41:42.840 Don't turn it into a negative on me. 2153 01:41:42.960 --> 01:41:45.600 It's a positive for our business. You're like, oh, I 2154 01:41:45.640 --> 01:41:51.279 have a voting voting themes bagels so busy. 2155 01:41:51.600 --> 01:41:53.560 Try to get you to accept that. I could have 2156 01:41:53.600 --> 01:41:54.960 been thinking of that myself. 2157 01:41:56.119 --> 01:42:01.600 Man, Jim, thank you, I save the business. Don't worry. 2158 01:42:04.000 --> 01:42:06.199 All right, let's keep going. We already talked about the 2159 01:42:06.239 --> 01:42:09.279 Simpsons in Fortnite, so we could skip that. Amazon's Lord 2160 01:42:09.279 --> 01:42:13.239 of the Rings mmo has reportedly also been canceled. They 2161 01:42:13.239 --> 01:42:16.279 were going to do a new MMO that this is 2162 01:42:16.279 --> 01:42:19.039 a company that's already done other MMOs. 2163 01:42:18.560 --> 01:42:19.439 Like New World. 2164 01:42:20.560 --> 01:42:23.239 They seem to be less interested in this because it 2165 01:42:23.319 --> 01:42:25.359 was going to still require a ton of work to 2166 01:42:25.359 --> 01:42:28.079 get it across the end, and they had a lot 2167 01:42:28.119 --> 01:42:30.800 of people working on games in general, and they are 2168 01:42:30.960 --> 01:42:32.640 I don't know. It seems like to me they're losing 2169 01:42:32.720 --> 01:42:35.680 interest in that also. I just don't Lord of the 2170 01:42:35.720 --> 01:42:37.600 Rings feels like it's in a weird spot to be 2171 01:42:37.680 --> 01:42:40.720 super investing in. I know that Amazon continues to do 2172 01:42:40.760 --> 01:42:42.560 a TV show, They're probably going to do more stuff 2173 01:42:42.560 --> 01:42:46.560 in the future, but I don't know, like it feels 2174 01:42:46.560 --> 01:42:49.039 like a low tide for that to me. But Mike, 2175 01:42:49.119 --> 01:42:50.800 you have your finger on the a little bit more. 2176 01:42:51.279 --> 01:42:53.800 I mean, I was sa surprised because Amazon is retreating, 2177 01:42:53.840 --> 01:42:55.640 I think, I mean, New World isn't going to stop 2178 01:42:55.640 --> 01:42:56.680 getting updates. 2179 01:42:56.359 --> 01:42:57.920 Even right, So that was their break quesh. 2180 01:42:58.000 --> 01:43:02.039 So, yeah, is in a weird place right now. You know, 2181 01:43:02.119 --> 01:43:06.239 we have those Hobbit movies. Sorry Jen, but for most 2182 01:43:06.239 --> 01:43:11.119 people they didn't hit. That Amazon show was expensive and 2183 01:43:11.239 --> 01:43:12.920 people watched it for a while. 2184 01:43:13.600 --> 01:43:16.640 There was an anime movie recently too, right. 2185 01:43:16.880 --> 01:43:19.760 No one cares, right, So, yeah, a lot of or whatever, 2186 01:43:19.960 --> 01:43:22.239 a lot of it's just kind of happening. It's being 2187 01:43:22.319 --> 01:43:25.680 thrown out there, and it's like, is any that's ever 2188 01:43:25.720 --> 01:43:28.359 gonna hit? Like there's gonna be that Hunt for Golla 2189 01:43:28.520 --> 01:43:30.560 movie and it's you know, it's like a lot of 2190 01:43:30.560 --> 01:43:34.840 the original people are back. Yeah. I still don't know 2191 01:43:34.840 --> 01:43:38.960 if I have anything from that, right, really, Yeah, it's 2192 01:43:38.960 --> 01:43:41.800 a real thing that's happening. Let's because it is stupid 2193 01:43:41.800 --> 01:43:42.720 because it's a real. 2194 01:43:43.920 --> 01:43:46.479 Yeah movie, come on I watched it. 2195 01:43:47.000 --> 01:43:49.039 I watched that show and I think I got like 2196 01:43:49.560 --> 01:43:52.119 an episode and a half in and there wasn't a 2197 01:43:52.199 --> 01:43:55.439 single time that anyone smiled, and it just like was 2198 01:43:55.479 --> 01:43:58.680 so oppressive. I'm like, I get that, like we are 2199 01:43:58.720 --> 01:44:01.520 maybe going away from snarky characters quite a bit, and 2200 01:44:01.520 --> 01:44:03.239 that's what we're trying to get away from, but that 2201 01:44:03.760 --> 01:44:06.800 Lord of the Rings shouldn't feel oppressive from the word go, 2202 01:44:07.159 --> 01:44:09.039 Like there should be a moment where Hobbits are doing 2203 01:44:09.119 --> 01:44:11.439 something stupid that I can enjoy, and there wasn't any 2204 01:44:11.479 --> 01:44:11.760 of that. 2205 01:44:12.039 --> 01:44:17.199 It is crazy, I mean, even to the same effect 2206 01:44:17.279 --> 01:44:20.399 in some capacity like those two like Game of Thrones 2207 01:44:20.520 --> 01:44:24.159 and Lord of the Rings. Is the speed in which 2208 01:44:24.199 --> 01:44:28.039 they kind of fell off, Like that is kind of 2209 01:44:28.119 --> 01:44:29.439 it is kind of wild. 2210 01:44:29.560 --> 01:44:33.600 You know what astounds me though, is Game of Thrones, 2211 01:44:33.640 --> 01:44:35.840 like the House of the Dragon. The new season's coming 2212 01:44:35.880 --> 01:44:38.560 and they have another spin off in the works or whatever, 2213 01:44:38.560 --> 01:44:38.880 and they. 2214 01:44:38.840 --> 01:44:41.960 Keep making it, but like I know, like one person 2215 01:44:42.039 --> 01:44:44.680 excited about it, But I'm that's the same for Star Wars, 2216 01:44:44.760 --> 01:44:48.680 like they completed the main story and everything else doesn't 2217 01:44:48.680 --> 01:44:49.840 feel like it matters as much. 2218 01:44:49.920 --> 01:44:54.239 But while we're talking about all of these huge franchises 2219 01:44:54.239 --> 01:44:58.600 and IP continuing to go and who the fuck cares y'all? 2220 01:44:59.439 --> 01:45:05.319 The Walking Dead it's still happening. Yeah, Dariel Dixon is 2221 01:45:05.399 --> 01:45:10.319 no longer in Paris, he's moved to Spain. He's in 2222 01:45:10.359 --> 01:45:11.359 Spain with Carol. 2223 01:45:11.479 --> 01:45:17.359 Now this guy, what, I'm just just becoming a space 2224 01:45:18.359 --> 01:45:21.840 Oh that's wild, But you know, Lord of the Rings 2225 01:45:21.840 --> 01:45:24.760 and video games have been that's been especially rough. 2226 01:45:24.880 --> 01:45:27.840 Gallam is maybe the most famous bad video game of 2227 01:45:27.880 --> 01:45:33.479 the last several years. That Shire game happened, and nobody 2228 01:45:33.960 --> 01:45:36.079 like that. So all that and then yeah, Amazon like 2229 01:45:36.199 --> 01:45:40.359 they fired like seventeen thousand people lot them from games. 2230 01:45:40.399 --> 01:45:42.760 So you know, it's it's what always happens with these 2231 01:45:42.800 --> 01:45:44.760 big tech people get involved in games. It makes a 2232 01:45:44.840 --> 01:45:46.479 big push and put a lot of money into and 2233 01:45:46.520 --> 01:45:51.159 then they just eventually retreat. In The MMO space is 2234 01:45:51.279 --> 01:45:55.720 just also weird right now, especially if we're talking about 2235 01:45:55.720 --> 01:45:59.720 that traditional hot bar style mm which World of Warcraft 2236 01:46:00.039 --> 01:46:02.000 and from phasey fourteen seemed to just kind of have 2237 01:46:02.680 --> 01:46:04.920 locked up for the most part. You can do maybe 2238 01:46:04.960 --> 01:46:07.960 something new with survival mechanics, like that Dutent game. 2239 01:46:08.199 --> 01:46:09.680 I've made sure to check back in on that. Are 2240 01:46:09.680 --> 01:46:12.119 people still playing that dudent game? Is it still doing well? 2241 01:46:12.560 --> 01:46:15.000 I don't know. There is a Lord of the Rings mmo. 2242 01:46:15.199 --> 01:46:18.760 Now Low tro there's Low Tro and it is quote 2243 01:46:18.800 --> 01:46:20.399 unquotably still going. 2244 01:46:20.640 --> 01:46:22.680 But it is right, very old. 2245 01:46:22.720 --> 01:46:25.760 It's never been updated quite as much as a World 2246 01:46:25.760 --> 01:46:28.960 of Warcraft is. It has a very dedicated following of 2247 01:46:29.000 --> 01:46:31.479 the people who that is their game, kind of like 2248 01:46:31.880 --> 01:46:34.560 it's that Star Trek Online area too, right, there are 2249 01:46:34.600 --> 01:46:36.560 these kind of games that that that is still. 2250 01:46:36.399 --> 01:46:39.760 Is that still like blow EverQuest like in terms of 2251 01:46:40.000 --> 01:46:42.840 the amount of players in engagement or are they probably around? 2252 01:46:42.920 --> 01:46:45.920 I would I would guess certainly better than EverQuest too. Yeah, 2253 01:46:45.920 --> 01:46:48.319 Lord Troch just got a new expansion. And the whole 2254 01:46:48.319 --> 01:46:50.119 thing with Lord of the Rings online was always that 2255 01:46:50.159 --> 01:46:52.359 it was concurrent to the game. So I don't know 2256 01:46:52.359 --> 01:46:55.439 if they actually caught up to Frodo throwing the ring 2257 01:46:55.479 --> 01:46:58.239 in the volcano. So I have no idea what they 2258 01:46:58.279 --> 01:47:00.199 were thought the pitch was gonna be for this, it's 2259 01:47:00.199 --> 01:47:01.600 new Lord of the Rings MMO. 2260 01:47:01.720 --> 01:47:03.399 I am not shocked it's not happening. 2261 01:47:03.399 --> 01:47:05.359 I don't think too many people ever had faith in 2262 01:47:05.399 --> 01:47:09.039 it or are sad it's not going to be a thing. 2263 01:47:09.079 --> 01:47:10.640 I love Lord of the Rings. I would love to 2264 01:47:10.680 --> 01:47:14.960 see some exciting Lord of the Rings games and projects again. 2265 01:47:15.039 --> 01:47:17.640 I'm also somebody's like, hey, I still have those movies. 2266 01:47:17.680 --> 01:47:20.159 We got some neat games. I gotta go play Shadow 2267 01:47:20.239 --> 01:47:22.239 of War. Still, I'll I'll just do that. 2268 01:47:22.920 --> 01:47:25.880 What about Mike the Hobbits in Fortnite? 2269 01:47:27.479 --> 01:47:29.680 I mean, I don't know they're gonna do that, but 2270 01:47:29.680 --> 01:47:31.000 we're gonna definitely like. 2271 01:47:30.920 --> 01:47:31.560 Give them a gun. 2272 01:47:31.640 --> 01:47:35.319 They're gonna give Gandalf a gun at some point. That 2273 01:47:35.399 --> 01:47:37.920 just makes sense to me and almost certainly. 2274 01:47:37.840 --> 01:47:42.640 Hey, I just want to shoot Elijah Wood as a character. Okay, 2275 01:47:43.239 --> 01:47:46.680 is y'all think Harry Potter and Fortnite's gonna happen? Yes, 2276 01:47:46.920 --> 01:47:48.880 it sounds like it's going to huh. 2277 01:47:49.439 --> 01:47:51.479 Okay, that's it. We don't have to talk about it. 2278 01:47:51.760 --> 01:47:52.399 Jk Rowling. 2279 01:47:52.840 --> 01:47:55.520 I think somebody were here. Somebody was saying when I 2280 01:47:55.560 --> 01:47:58.000 was I could have sworn. 2281 01:47:58.159 --> 01:48:00.119 I don't know. Maybe I'm trying. I'm careful what I 2282 01:48:00.119 --> 01:48:02.720 thought I heard that it's a rumor. Maybe I don't know. 2283 01:48:04.640 --> 01:48:07.119 I think it's supposed to happen soon, but yeah, I'm 2284 01:48:07.159 --> 01:48:08.880 not tapped into that scene. I don't know. 2285 01:48:09.560 --> 01:48:13.119 Last story here, Kojima says that if he'd known the 2286 01:48:13.159 --> 01:48:15.880 Watshowskis wanted to him to make a matrix game, it 2287 01:48:15.920 --> 01:48:20.399 could have happened. Hideo Kojima denies knowing about an offer 2288 01:48:20.399 --> 01:48:23.000 from the Watshowskis to create a matrix game in nineteen 2289 01:48:23.079 --> 01:48:27.920 ninety nine. That is what a former Konami vice president claimed, 2290 01:48:28.359 --> 01:48:31.279 and that they also said Kojima was like there, but 2291 01:48:31.319 --> 01:48:33.920 maybe he didn't quite realize what was happening, or it 2292 01:48:33.960 --> 01:48:36.800 was a little bit early for Star Trex at that point. Yeah, 2293 01:48:36.840 --> 01:48:39.399 maybe it was starstruck. I mean we do, like we 2294 01:48:39.520 --> 01:48:41.199 know as a matter of this is that he's going 2295 01:48:41.239 --> 01:48:44.000 to like connect with the Wachowskis now right, and we 2296 01:48:44.000 --> 01:48:46.920 should like probably get scans of them in that machine 2297 01:48:47.000 --> 01:48:47.960 any second, Like. 2298 01:48:48.159 --> 01:48:53.039 Oh sure, like you know, I mean Kujuma was doing 2299 01:48:53.119 --> 01:48:54.920 like Zone the Anders and Melger saw it too in 2300 01:48:55.000 --> 01:48:58.319 nineteen ninety nine. I imagine I'm glad we got those things. Yeah, 2301 01:48:58.399 --> 01:49:01.680 instead of him matrix game. I'm glad we got entered 2302 01:49:01.680 --> 01:49:04.159 the matrix. It's not amazing, but I'm glad that game. 2303 01:49:05.479 --> 01:49:09.760 It's not I remember having fun with it a big deal. 2304 01:49:09.920 --> 01:49:13.399 They market the Crazy it was Path of Neo the 2305 01:49:13.680 --> 01:49:15.960 MMO or was that the that's the sequel. And then 2306 01:49:15.960 --> 01:49:20.520 there was the Matrix Online, which I think is the 2307 01:49:20.520 --> 01:49:24.239 only place you ever got to see Morpheus's canonical death 2308 01:49:24.399 --> 01:49:27.680 was as an in game event in the Matrix Online. 2309 01:49:27.800 --> 01:49:29.840 If I'm all that. 2310 01:49:29.840 --> 01:49:32.279 Stuff, seriously, they all look that like all that stuff 2311 01:49:32.359 --> 01:49:36.159 is cannon and stuff like that.

Mike from Long Island rights in I 2535 02:01:00.399 --> 02:01:04.039 just remembered Oklahoma as a state. Any thoughts on Oklahoma ever? 2536 02:01:04.079 --> 02:01:08.039 Been? Everything? Yeah? 2537 02:01:08.119 --> 02:01:10.680 I think the only time I ever think about Lahoma 2538 02:01:10.760 --> 02:01:14.960 is when Jr. From wrestling was talking about it. Otherwise, 2539 02:01:15.119 --> 02:01:16.880 not so much, I think, apparently because he's got some 2540 02:01:16.880 --> 02:01:17.680 stuff I don't like. 2541 02:01:18.079 --> 02:01:18.680 So I don't know. 2542 02:01:19.119 --> 02:01:21.239 I'm sorry to say I'm not thinking about Oklahoma. But 2543 02:01:21.279 --> 02:01:22.560 there's that musical. 2544 02:01:22.279 --> 02:01:28.880 Right, Oh yeah, but are you thinking about that musical 2545 02:01:28.960 --> 02:01:31.840 a lot, mikey or you know, you know me more 2546 02:01:31.880 --> 02:01:35.960 than you might think that. For whatever reason, that play 2547 02:01:36.000 --> 02:01:38.079 comes up as like a plot point a lot in 2548 02:01:38.199 --> 02:01:42.119 like stuff. I think I agree. It's just sort of 2549 02:01:42.159 --> 02:01:44.880 like it's like, oh that I was a Broadway version 2550 02:01:44.880 --> 02:01:46.960 off version of I think. 2551 02:01:47.199 --> 02:01:50.079 The climax of that movie is like a Citizen's Trial, 2552 02:01:50.159 --> 02:01:55.399 and it's like frame, it's really weird. Great to think 2553 02:01:55.399 --> 02:01:58.720 about the citizens Trial. When I just saw like a 2554 02:01:58.800 --> 02:02:01.600 recording of it and it was got a Hugh Jackman 2555 02:02:01.760 --> 02:02:04.000 was the lead in it, I'm like, Oh, he's nice 2556 02:02:04.000 --> 02:02:04.319 in that. 2557 02:02:04.399 --> 02:02:05.119 He's a nice guy. 2558 02:02:05.279 --> 02:02:05.880 Loves to sing. 2559 02:02:06.399 --> 02:02:07.199 Oh I do. 2560 02:02:07.960 --> 02:02:10.239 I do think of the clubs Oklahoma Ceity bombing first, 2561 02:02:10.239 --> 02:02:12.079 because that happened when I was like just kind of 2562 02:02:12.119 --> 02:02:15.239 like starting to pay attention to the world and was like, Oh, 2563 02:02:15.319 --> 02:02:19.000 this is this is possible. Our next first building and 2564 02:02:19.039 --> 02:02:20.000 destroy that building. 2565 02:02:20.199 --> 02:02:22.199 Yeah, one of the first bad news things. I can 2566 02:02:22.279 --> 02:02:24.000 remember that and yeah, oh. 2567 02:02:24.439 --> 02:02:27.399 Yeah, fertilizer does this What do you mean it's Yeah, 2568 02:02:27.439 --> 02:02:28.800 it was a very strange event. 2569 02:02:29.319 --> 02:02:32.760 Oklahoma is the pot state or the pan state. Yeah, 2570 02:02:32.760 --> 02:02:34.760 it's a pan It's got a pan handle. Yeah, yeah, 2571 02:02:34.800 --> 02:02:35.600 sorry to handle. 2572 02:02:35.720 --> 02:02:37.840 Yeah, the one it's like right next to Texas in 2573 02:02:38.000 --> 02:02:40.000 the flat part of Texas creates that handle. 2574 02:02:40.680 --> 02:02:44.680 It's probably the state I think about the least. It's 2575 02:02:44.720 --> 02:02:46.760 North Dakota or South Dakota. For me, I think about 2576 02:02:46.800 --> 02:02:50.000 the least think about Fargo. I think about the hockey 2577 02:02:50.279 --> 02:02:53.319 the lands. One of them has about Rushmore. We constantly 2578 02:02:53.319 --> 02:02:55.640 are doing that. Uh By. 2579 02:02:55.880 --> 02:02:57.960 Right when we were moving to Denver, stuff had to 2580 02:02:57.960 --> 02:03:00.680 spend a couple of weeks, like doing some training in Tulsa. 2581 02:03:00.800 --> 02:03:03.920 So she lived in Tulsa for about almost two months, 2582 02:03:04.680 --> 02:03:09.359 so she has some experience there. But that's very Memorablesa's all. 2583 02:03:09.359 --> 02:03:14.279 Right, fine, just that's the city motto. It's fine, It's fine. 2584 02:03:14.359 --> 02:03:16.920 Yeah, folks, right in about a state or a region 2585 02:03:16.960 --> 02:03:19.840 of the world that you barely think about that occasionally 2586 02:03:19.840 --> 02:03:20.760 pops up in your head. 2587 02:03:21.039 --> 02:03:24.279 Tell me more about Vermont. Vermont's amazing. 2588 02:03:26.199 --> 02:03:26.800 Vermont. 2589 02:03:27.800 --> 02:03:33.119 Yeah, come on, you're nuts. Yeah, you know Vermont is 2590 02:03:33.119 --> 02:03:38.880 that you know about Bernard Sanders Okay. 2591 02:03:37.439 --> 02:03:39.960 Okay, okay, I just I just associate him as just 2592 02:03:40.039 --> 02:03:43.279 like this omnipotent being that I just want to he's 2593 02:03:43.359 --> 02:03:43.760 that too. 2594 02:03:44.000 --> 02:03:50.920 But he's also senator for Vermont. Yeah, Vermont's dope. There's everything. 2595 02:03:51.079 --> 02:03:54.039 Apparently Vermont has the best. I think Vermont has the 2596 02:03:54.119 --> 02:03:58.680 longest life expectancy in the country. 2597 02:03:59.119 --> 02:04:03.119 Low bar, but yeah, I think I respect Vermont because 2598 02:04:03.119 --> 02:04:04.439 it took a while for it to be a state, 2599 02:04:04.520 --> 02:04:06.079 even though it was surrounded by states. 2600 02:04:06.119 --> 02:04:06.840 I think like for a. 2601 02:04:06.800 --> 02:04:09.720 While they're like, no, we're good, Like they just wanted 2602 02:04:09.720 --> 02:04:12.279 to be a country. And I think eventually is like 2603 02:04:12.520 --> 02:04:15.239 peer pressure got to them or something. I don't know, 2604 02:04:15.279 --> 02:04:16.359 it's something like that. 2605 02:04:17.000 --> 02:04:20.920 When did it become a state? Oh, I mean it's right. 2606 02:04:20.760 --> 02:04:25.600 There, nineteen eighty one. That's pretty early actually, but like 2607 02:04:25.680 --> 02:04:27.880 it was, you know, it's right there with everybody. It's 2608 02:04:27.920 --> 02:04:30.640 right there with all the other right exactly. There's something 2609 02:04:30.640 --> 02:04:34.560 about the moon. There's something about Vermont like holding on 2610 02:04:34.760 --> 02:04:36.479 for a little bit in hell. 2611 02:04:36.560 --> 02:04:38.359 Now it looks like the last of the original because 2612 02:04:38.359 --> 02:04:41.880 that was a thirteen colony, right I believe. So, no, not, 2613 02:04:42.199 --> 02:04:46.319 Vermont is not one of the third yet it's the 2614 02:04:46.359 --> 02:04:47.079 fourteenth state. 2615 02:04:48.319 --> 02:04:50.439 It wasn't. It was the first date at it. 2616 02:04:50.520 --> 02:04:52.439 So there, yeah, that's it, even though it was like yeah, 2617 02:04:52.439 --> 02:04:55.920 it's just right there with everybody else, I mean yeah yeah, 2618 02:04:56.079 --> 02:04:56.439 and then. 2619 02:04:56.279 --> 02:05:01.920 They're yeah yeah. There are five states that became states 2620 02:05:01.960 --> 02:05:06.199 after the Nintendo Corporation started doing business.
