GDC Week to those of you that also celebrate and attend.

10
00:00:58,439 --> 00:01:01,479
I've had a lovely time so far meeting folks over there.

11
00:01:01,719 --> 00:01:09,439
But we have the most celebrated week. Celebrator. That's right.

12
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:15,640
He loves a themed week, whether it is fishing, casinos, pinballs. Paea,

13
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,840
the human piea of games Media.

14
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,680
Speaker 2: Dan reichert Oh, boy, that's right, because Paea, I'm kind

15
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:27,719
of running through my brain. That's meat adjacent, fish adjacent.

16
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,879
Speaker 1: Uh, jumbalaya adjacent.

17
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 2: Oh okay, all right, I'm about to be in New Orleans,

18
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,200
you know what. Yeah, when I come back, I'm going

19
00:01:35,239 --> 00:01:36,239
to be a human Paea.

20
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 1: There we go, speaking about human forms of everything. He's

21
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,560
barely holding it together because the dark Lord is coursing

22
00:01:44,799 --> 00:01:47,920
through his veins, his electronics, his circuit boards.

23
00:01:48,239 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 3: Jeff Beckler, Hello, Yeah, I'm far from transformation into a

24
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:58,439
demon just yet. I feel like I've got that mostly

25
00:01:58,599 --> 00:02:02,879
under control. As long as the sun rises every day,

26
00:02:02,959 --> 00:02:06,840
it will prevent me from full transformation into a devil beast.

27
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: What if you go to one of those places where

28
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,599
it's like dark for forty eight hours, oh.

29
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,639
Speaker 3: Like your your Alaska's or your Nordic countries, and you're

30
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:16,800
one of the polls.

31
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 2: And yeah, good night country or whatever.

32
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,199
Speaker 1: Uh, I'm not gonna tempt fate. I'm not gonna try

33
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,080
it out. Do you think you transform if you were

34
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,800
like on a submarine for like three days. That's a

35
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:28,560
good question.

36
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,319
Speaker 3: All these scenarios I've not really run through, and now

37
00:02:31,319 --> 00:02:34,039
I'm kind of worrying about I'm finding myself in one

38
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:34,639
of these things.

39
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: The next thing, you know, I'm like some fucking triple

40
00:02:37,599 --> 00:02:39,400
goat headed beast. No Backler.

41
00:02:39,479 --> 00:02:42,199
Speaker 2: If you have a submarine situation, you are if it's

42
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,479
like an abyss, the abyss, you're totally Michael Bean, the

43
00:02:44,479 --> 00:02:46,840
guy who just like cracks and just like loses it.

44
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I don't think I could hang out on

45
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,840
a seb Yeah. I think the transformation into some sort

46
00:02:52,879 --> 00:02:57,479
of goat demon is like the furthest for my problems,

47
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,840
because I think the claustrophobia would get.

48
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,199
Speaker 1: To me first. Speaking about phobia, everyone else in games

49
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,439
media is scared of him and his powers and the

50
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,479
fact that he has pulled the ripcord. We have the

51
00:03:09,479 --> 00:03:11,800
b boy of games media.

52
00:03:12,599 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 4: Makmanadi paea is a Spanish rice dish cooked in a

53
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,360
large pan, especially notable for the crispy layer of rice

54
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,879
that's cooked on the bottom, called the soccer rot.

55
00:03:27,319 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 1: And folks news for you. We are all headed to

56
00:03:31,159 --> 00:03:34,159
Packs East. We're not bringing any payea. That'd be very

57
00:03:34,199 --> 00:03:35,800
hard to cook on the show floor. I think they

58
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,240
would frown upon that. We're going to Pax East. That's right.

59
00:03:38,319 --> 00:03:42,400
We have three panels the main show floor stage as well.

60
00:03:42,639 --> 00:03:45,520
There will be a show floor stage in the show

61
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,919
floor and we will be over there. But gang, that's

62
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,639
not it. That's not it. And also it's not just

00:03:53,879 --> 00:03:57,319
we got Sean, we got Will. Will's a real person.

65
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,360
It turns out and we're all gonna go over to

66
00:04:00,439 --> 00:04:03,719
Packs East all together, and we are giving away two

67
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:09,120

75
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,519
quite know when they will be scheduled, but as soon

up today Marry Me Tomadacci, the Internet's best dating show.

83
00:05:00,079 --> 00:05:03,759
Last week we saw some developments. One of us became

84
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,319
a child. I'm not gonna spoil who I'm a child?

85
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:08,319
Oh really?

86
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 5: Yes?

87
00:05:09,879 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: Oh I watch that? Yeah, how did I fair? Did

88
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,600
I do? Okay, not nearly.

89
00:05:15,399 --> 00:05:16,879
Speaker 5: As well as that episode where you were there for

90
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,279
Actually not nearly as bad as whoever it was who

91
00:05:20,319 --> 00:05:21,519
got turned into a child.

92
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 2: Yes, it could be anyone. I'm a child and.

93
00:05:25,639 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 1: You know, maybe that person becoming a child may actually

94
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,399
have them lose the game unless we find the adult spray.

95
00:05:33,399 --> 00:05:36,759
Speaker 2: And somebody might already be courting Shack and might be

96
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:37,439
a front runner.

97
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and it's bad bro. And then maybe both

98
00:05:42,399 --> 00:05:46,600
versions of someone is unfortunately getting courted and befriended by

99
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:51,439
an evil CEO insane man that crashes cars on the regular.

100
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,480
Speaker 2: Oh no, yeah, I know that both jans are in

101
00:05:56,519 --> 00:05:57,040
a throutle.

102
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 1: This isn't the polycue I wanted. All right, boys, I

103
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,040
think that's all the housekeeping.

104
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 2: Uh, I want to talk about this. So I'm next

105
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:09,879
on Blake Club again.

106
00:06:11,439 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 5: And did you realize the ripcord For the last six

107
00:06:15,319 --> 00:06:19,160
months I think has been me except that one week

108
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,040
when Jeff had to play not Cole again.

109
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,399
Speaker 2: I just won the fight in the bank and I

110
00:06:26,519 --> 00:06:28,879
reached the benefits. It's all above board.

111
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:31,160
Speaker 1: I okay.

112
00:06:31,199 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 2: So Mike has referred a lot to pulling the rip

113
00:06:33,319 --> 00:06:37,800
chord and doing something uncharacteristically mean for the game, picking

114
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,360
a game that maybe he would have previously thought was

115
00:06:40,399 --> 00:06:42,199
too mean to be my game.

116
00:06:42,759 --> 00:06:42,879
Speaker 1: Uh.

117
00:06:42,959 --> 00:06:45,639
Speaker 2: But then he went through Virtuoso and he needed to

118
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,639
strike back, and he pulled the rip chord with this

119
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,600
tough game, And Mike, I had a fucking dream last

120
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,079
night about you giving me my game, and it was

121
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,279
a Polish Sonic mod for the Super Nintendo.

122
00:07:00,079 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 1: Is that.

123
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,759
Speaker 2: The dream was like a real time thing, so it

124
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,000
felt like two hours and at the end of the dream,

125
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:08,439
I was like, oh, I'm done. I made it through

126
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,879
SA worried what the game would be. I'm done. And

127
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:12,800
then I fucking woke up and I was like, shit,

128
00:07:13,439 --> 00:07:18,199
I haven't anything yet, Mike. If I I have one

129
00:07:18,279 --> 00:07:19,959
guess right now as to what the game is, by

130
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,040
the way it is in the mail, or know it's here,

131
00:07:22,319 --> 00:07:24,600
I had Bonk look at it and she stonefaced, just

132
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:25,800
no sold the shit out of it. So I have

133
00:07:25,839 --> 00:07:29,639
no idea if I guess correctly with my one guess,

134
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:30,759
will you confirm it here?

135
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,439
Speaker 5: We just thought here to okay that I don't know

136
00:07:34,439 --> 00:07:35,360
if I can confirm it.

137
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 2: Well, I'm going to say what I think my guess

138
00:07:36,839 --> 00:07:41,920
is he fa Okay, I've heard it blightening round length

139
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,839
in terms of the uh you know, long plays and

140
00:07:45,839 --> 00:07:47,600
stuff like that, which we saw what happened with VIRTUALO

141
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,399
so and Grub referred to the game pick as targeted

142
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:56,439
towards me, which to me means adjacent to something that

143
00:07:56,519 --> 00:08:00,120
I like or something so putting together the little that

144
00:08:00,199 --> 00:08:02,560
I know, I think it is a game that I

145
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,639
rented numerous times as a kid, and it pissed me

146
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,079
off unbelievably and I could never get past the first level.

147
00:08:09,759 --> 00:08:13,480
I'm looking at your face, Mike. Is it Wayne's World.

148
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,519
Speaker 1: Time? Oh? My god, Wayne, I don't. I hope it is.

149
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:19,680
I Love Wayne's.

150
00:08:19,319 --> 00:08:26,639
Speaker 6: World jpeg of Mike Myers face and then all the

151
00:08:26,959 --> 00:08:29,040
electric like sub wolfers and stuff sucking up in the

152
00:08:29,079 --> 00:08:31,040
first level and you have no direction of where to go.

153
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:32,759
Speaker 2: I hate that game.

154
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 3: I'm sure I would like learn to love it, because

155
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,279
there's no I've never met a Wayne's World thing.

156
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:47,519
Speaker 1: I hate it. I'll just well blake amazing.

157
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,279
Speaker 5: Actually yeah, I will neither confirm nor deny dan.

158
00:08:51,879 --> 00:08:57,639
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, right, OK, fantastic back or did they ever

159
00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,399
make a Wayne's World pinball machine?

160
00:09:00,759 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 3: Ooh, good, fantastic question, my friend Jen. I don't believe

161
00:09:06,519 --> 00:09:11,639
they have. I'm just going through the human Wikipedia pinball

162
00:09:11,759 --> 00:09:15,559
that I am, and I don't think they've done it.

163
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: Interesting thought. I'm happy to be ch.

164
00:09:18,519 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 3: You'd be surprised, you know the way. Look, you know,

165
00:09:21,519 --> 00:09:24,200
if we're onto bigger and better things like Pokemon, you

166
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:24,759
know what I mean.

167
00:09:24,919 --> 00:09:30,919
Speaker 5: Oh well, I'm going to the Mario Day event at

00:09:35,759 --> 00:09:37,519
Pokemon out in the wild? Is that not out yet?

171
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:38,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not shipping yet.

172
00:09:38,919 --> 00:09:40,720

173
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:45,440
weeks for like licensing approvals, And I don't I don't

174
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,320
claim to have all the insider information. There's stuff I

175
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,039
know that I'm just never gonna say other than that.

176
00:09:52,159 --> 00:09:54,799
But yeah, no, if I was you. The ones I'm

177
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:59,399

00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,240

00:11:27,799 --> 00:11:28,519
Speaker 1: It's awesome.

216
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 2: You get to just pick whatever score you want and

217
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,480
when you get a multi ball and it's just improv

218
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:33,240
you just choose.

219
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 6: Dan.

Speaker 5: You just.

221
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 3: It's super cool because you get you choose your class

222
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,919
and the before you plunge. Uh, It's it's fucking awesome.

223
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,679
Speaker 1: Anyway. Yeah, I'm I'm a weirdo about that one, but yeah,

224
00:11:48,759 --> 00:11:51,080
fans play that. I said it at the top of

225
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,039
the show. But it's g DC week here in San Francisco,

226
00:11:54,519 --> 00:11:57,799
and man, it's a good, pretty ass week out here.

227
00:11:57,919 --> 00:12:01,799
The sun is out for once. And despite living here

228
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,480
and working into the industry for a hot second now,

229
00:12:04,639 --> 00:12:07,440
I've never been to GDC. Have y'all been to GDC before?

230
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,919
Speaker 2: I went to San Francisco and did not like it.

231
00:12:11,279 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, I had to go a lot when I was

232
00:12:14,039 --> 00:12:17,240
at Games Beat, like we games be treated like any three,

233
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,159
like this is a big deal. Which I mean, I

234
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:20,799
always thought I was a little misguided for us because

235
00:12:20,799 --> 00:12:22,360
there wasn't necessarily a ton of news. There was a

236
00:12:22,399 --> 00:12:24,080
lot of people available, so I get it. We could

237
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,759
do a lot of interviews. And I don't know, I

238
00:12:26,879 --> 00:12:30,039
my thing with what it was was always very busy.

239
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,039
Jeff wasn't going very much because he started having kids

240
00:12:33,039 --> 00:12:35,360
and he uses excuse not to have to go, so

241
00:12:35,399 --> 00:12:37,399
I didn't get to hang out with my buddy anymore.

242
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,360
That what I did like was there there was always

243
00:12:40,399 --> 00:12:44,639
at least one really good like retro like game post

244
00:12:44,759 --> 00:12:48,519
mortem or or Ted talk thing. So I'd always goes like, oh,

245
00:12:48,639 --> 00:12:51,600
that's the people who made NBA Jam are going to

246
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,240
just talk about that for an hour, or you know,

247
00:12:54,279 --> 00:12:56,399
the people who made Miss pac Man or was the

248
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,759
ultimate online one. So those were always super fun.

249
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I walked around yesterday and then I also

250
00:13:02,919 --> 00:13:05,720
went to the day day of the DEVS event that

251
00:13:05,759 --> 00:13:08,600
Double find an im e bit put on. Shouts out

252
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,440
to Nicky and I don't know what it was, y'all.

253
00:13:12,519 --> 00:13:14,960
Maybe it's this year in particular, because I'm used to

254
00:13:15,039 --> 00:13:18,360
hearing the vibes of GDC not necessarily being for games

255
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,840
media people, but the vibes were like low key, immaculate,

256
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,679
like people are having a good time. People were happy,

257
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:26,960
and I think they're all dark.

258
00:13:27,639 --> 00:13:29,559
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was hearing some I was I'm hearing people

259
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,279
are very upset about the early closure of the grass

260
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:34,159
field this year.

261
00:13:34,399 --> 00:13:37,759
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's stupid as fuck that I don't understand. Yeah,

262
00:13:37,799 --> 00:13:39,639
they early closed the grass field.

263
00:13:41,799 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 5: There's that like Grassy Park right by GDC, and I

264
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,279
guess they put a fence up around it after two

265
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,080
pm or something like all right, Gabe journals, no more

266
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:50,480
of this.

267
00:13:50,799 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 2: Yes, oh like outside Moscone.

268
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah they did that because they figured and

269
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,559
found out that people that didn't buy a ticket to

270
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:05,200
GDC were congregating and having meetings, so they just put

271
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,320
a gate around. Oh no, stop to that.

272
00:14:09,919 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 5: But if they like networked or something without paying us, right,

273
00:14:14,919 --> 00:14:15,200
But I.

274
00:14:15,159 --> 00:14:19,279
Speaker 1: Will say Greb had a fantastic talk yesterday talking about games, media,

275
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,879
games journalism. Some other friends of the website were there

276
00:14:22,919 --> 00:14:26,200

Speaker 5: I don't know.

279
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: Guys, Like I definitely feel like I don't prolong there

280
00:14:32,399 --> 00:14:35,919
because everyone looks like they're working, working, and like actually

281
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:42,120
networking but you're doing great so far. Yeah, you're working,

282
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,559

283
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,080
those kissing those babies, and you're not shacking babies. You're

284
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,919
kissing the babies. If anyone wants me to shake their baby,

285

because they're like, oh, have you've seen super iPad tooolf

310
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:16,080
And I'm like, I have interacted with him on the

311
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:20,080
shows a couple of times, and very recently he asked

312
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,759
me for advice on it for Disney theme park things,

313
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,919
So yeah, his mind.

314
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:31,879
Speaker 1: Have you not you've met John in person? He was there,

315
00:16:30,759 --> 00:16:35,879
lay not a person, not a person? Where were you?

316
00:16:35,919 --> 00:16:37,919
Speaker 3: There's the world?

317
00:16:38,039 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 5: Right right? Believe it or not?

318
00:16:40,159 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: Right? Right? Yeah?

319
00:16:41,759 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 5: Okay, speaking of Disney, this is this is this skeet

320
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,919
with the Star Wars rage bait doing fantastic engagement numbers.

321
00:16:49,519 --> 00:16:51,960
You should all be very happy with me.

322
00:16:52,279 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: All right, Well, we're playing the se O game, so

323
00:16:54,919 --> 00:17:05,640
let's we might as well now talk about video games, Dan,

324
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:10,599
I am the most interested to hear your thoughts on Pokemon.

325
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:18,279
Oh Copia, Oh shit, that game's good. Yeow yeah.

326
00:17:18,319 --> 00:17:20,279
Speaker 2: I think I always thought the variety, like whenever I

327
00:17:20,319 --> 00:17:22,400
look at a Pokemon, I'm not like mad. You know,

328
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,720
it's like I've never been a Pokemon guy. I'm just

329
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,440
not an RPG guy. So it's like that's the core

330
00:17:27,559 --> 00:17:29,920
thing of the Pokemon series, those RPGs. So I don't

331
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,000
touch him. But I like Snap. I like the minigames

332
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:33,599
in Stadium.

333
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:33,880
Speaker 1: You know.

334
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,319
Speaker 2: It's like you you wrap Pokemon up in a package

335
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,920
of gameplay that I like, and I'm cool with Pokemon,

336
00:17:40,079 --> 00:17:42,200
and it turns out this is a good one of these.

337
00:17:42,279 --> 00:17:44,680
It's like it's it is definitely pulling all the like

338
00:17:44,759 --> 00:17:46,960
animal crossing levers and things like that, but with the

339
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,200
fun gimmick of just like you can just be this

340
00:17:49,279 --> 00:17:51,920
freaky t one thousand dude that like suddenly your arms

341
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,640
can become like tillers for soil and stuff like that,

342
00:17:54,799 --> 00:17:57,000
and like all these dudes are like cool. Like I

343
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,240
made my little leaf hut and I was talking an

344
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,559
owl hoot hoot. I believe yes, who dude, Yeah, cool dude.

345
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,400
We didn't realize we were standing near my house, my

346
00:18:07,519 --> 00:18:09,839
personal house that I put a literal diddo flag on

347
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,400
top of, and uh, he was like, oh wow, this

348
00:18:12,519 --> 00:18:14,319
is cool, Like is it cool if I live here?

349
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:16,680
And I was just kind of like and I hit yes,

350
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,559
and then he walked into my house and I was like,

351
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,039
this fucking owl and he just stealed my house and

352
00:18:21,079 --> 00:18:23,319
I walked in there and it's like, no, it's just

353
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,720
like my buddy that like he's like my roommate pet

354
00:18:25,759 --> 00:18:26,720
I guess or something.

355
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,640
Speaker 1: And I was like, you know what.

356
00:18:28,599 --> 00:18:31,319
Speaker 2: If I had to accidentally have a Pokemon to live

357
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,160
with me, that hoodoot seems like an hour, I dude,

358
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:37,839
So I don't regret it. Uh charming game, It's just

359
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:41,440
really charming. It's uh yeah, it's got the animal crossing,

360
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,519
a little bit of Minecraft going on there. I like

361
00:18:43,599 --> 00:18:45,279
how there is a little bit of kind of like

362
00:18:45,559 --> 00:18:47,839
questing him, just like Okay, so I got this stuff

363
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,000
and then now I can go to this caves area

364
00:18:50,039 --> 00:18:51,880
and now I can go here and I'm breaking these

365
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,359
things and causing the water to come down and uh

366
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,640
water all the soil, which half my time in this

367
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,599
game is just watering every fucking square.

368
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,759
Speaker 5: Soil and I guess it is. Yeah, And I got.

369
00:19:01,599 --> 00:19:04,400
Speaker 2: The grasshopper cutter things now, so I'm going around just

370
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:08,119
cutting weeds and stuff. That's a good time, man, your dude,

371
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,000
Just like the Datto thing is cool, like you learn

372
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,599
to sport, you can barf water and then like you're

373
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,200
going around, you're just creating this fun little town for everyone.

374
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:21,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I never Mike, come on you. I reacted

375
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,400
bigger than I did this time, Jem he called you

376
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:29,599
out though, It's fine, I know. So I I never

377
00:19:30,039 --> 00:19:35,079
played too much of Viva Pinata. Is this like reminiscent

378
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:36,880
of like that flow at all.

379
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 5: It has some of those vibes with like the habitats,

380
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:40,799
And that's one of my favorite parts of the game,

381
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,200
right is Like you know, sometimes the game would just

382
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,599
tell you, like hey, if you put four grass things together,

383
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:49,000
it'll track a Pokemon. Sometimes you just stumble crossing, and

384
00:19:49,039 --> 00:19:53,000
sometimes it's very specific like put this railway sign next

385
00:19:53,039 --> 00:19:56,839
to this railway track that will attract a Pokemon, or

386
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,119
like you know, like oh you put the grass really

387
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,720
high up or put next to the sea by a

388
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,839
fishing pole. So all that stuff is is a ton

389
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,720
of fun, just these different weird combinations that could attract

390
00:20:08,039 --> 00:20:10,720
the problem. Yeah, that's the Viva Pinata gameplay looks. You

391
00:20:10,759 --> 00:20:14,839
get to do specific things to attract specific pionatas.

392
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,039
Speaker 2: I like how it's like weird too, Like even just

393
00:20:17,039 --> 00:20:18,759
the little things you gotta do, Like I'm just headbutting

394
00:20:18,759 --> 00:20:21,240
trees like crazy, you know, and then things are breaking

395
00:20:21,279 --> 00:20:24,599
into a ton of logs. I'm just like inhaling millions

396
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,599
of lumbers and the kind of weird and fun.

397
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just really smart and like the loop is

398
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,160
really and I love how the loop is kind of

399
00:20:33,039 --> 00:20:35,920
before you even think that what you're really doing is

400
00:20:36,039 --> 00:20:38,000
organizing the town and making it look better. By the

401
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,200
time you kind of just do the mainline quest stuff,

402
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,400
you're sort of there, and then you can see how

403
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,400
if you wanted to get off the main quest and

404
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,519
just really develop the town like crazy and build the

405
00:20:47,599 --> 00:20:50,839
roads and the buildings, you can do that. And I'm

406
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:52,720
in like the second area now, so I see again

407
00:20:52,839 --> 00:20:55,640
like the bigger loop of oh so now this new

408
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,079
place and it looks even trashing in the last one,

409
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,400
and just again by kind of eating quests sorry to

410
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,720
come together and I can see, oh, I could like

411
00:21:03,839 --> 00:21:06,559
really develop this place and make minds and you can

412
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,359
kind of make an irrigation system for crops instead of

413
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,960
having to water them. So it's like playing through the

414
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,039
quest this one. But I can also see how beyond

415
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,599
that there's gonna be so much game here for the

416
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,119
secos who really wanted to develop. I have a giant

417
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:22,279
Pokemon map.

418
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:30,440
Speaker 1: Mister Backler, please, hi, just could just try something real quick, like,

419
00:21:30,599 --> 00:21:35,799
just pretend for a second, really pretend that I don't

420
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:41,480
know anything about this game. Okay, so I need to

421
00:21:41,559 --> 00:21:44,599
know what it is, A and B. I need to

422
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,319
know if Herdier is in it. I don't know if

423
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,880
Herdier is in it. I never gets any fucking love

424
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,920
because there's so many It's a Pokemon. It's like one

425
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:55,319
of the dogs.

426
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 3: I'm gonna look it up Pokemon.

427
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 2: It's a Marty like. Yeah.

428
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:10,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, basically, mister Backlar, if you take Animal Crossing, Minecraft

429
00:22:11,279 --> 00:22:14,559
Dragon Quest Builders, because it's the same developers that made

430
00:22:14,559 --> 00:22:19,960
that mush together and uh with Pokemon inside of it

431
00:22:20,039 --> 00:22:22,359
and around it, and you play as a Ditto, and

432
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,759
a Ditto is the amorphous problem. Yeah, he's just like

433
00:22:25,839 --> 00:22:30,119
silly Puddy. Yes, yeah, And Ditto transforms into their uh,

434
00:22:30,799 --> 00:22:34,799
their original trainer, and then Ditto is pretty much fixing

435
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,599
up and solving the town and attracting all the Pokemon back.

436
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:42,200
It's very charming the whole time. Now do you think

437
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:43,359
do you think I would like it.

438
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 2: Do you like Animal Crossing?

439
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,200
Speaker 1: Did you Yeah? Did you like starting about? No, that's

440
00:22:48,279 --> 00:22:51,920
that's stupid. Did you like Disney started Bell?

441
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 3: Like?

442
00:22:52,279 --> 00:22:54,400
Speaker 1: I think Animal Crossing is just not for me, okay.

443
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:58,319
Speaker 3: Because this is pretty animal cross fun.

444
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 5: It's a bit more to do in this, like like

445
00:23:01,039 --> 00:23:03,720
Animal Crossing would have the hole you're done for today

446
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,240
element to it, especially early on in this game, there's

447
00:23:07,279 --> 00:23:09,720
there's none of that. You just kind of keep going

448
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,400
and keep going and the loop is always satisfying. So

449
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,240
I mean, I like it. I like the new Animal

450
00:23:15,279 --> 00:23:18,200
Crossing a ton sure, but I definitely think this is better.

451
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,440
Speaker 2: There is there's like a lot of personality and like

452
00:23:20,519 --> 00:23:22,119
even the little things like oh, we got to rebuild

453
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:25,519
this Pokemon center and it's not just adding like oh

454
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,240
zero out of three of this thing. It's like, okay,

455
00:23:28,279 --> 00:23:29,759
you got to get all the resources and stuff. But

456
00:23:29,759 --> 00:23:32,279
then there's this like rallying the Pokemon where it's like

457
00:23:32,319 --> 00:23:34,279
we need you. You're the builder, and you're like to

458
00:23:34,319 --> 00:23:35,279
save the community center.

459
00:23:35,319 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 1: You know.

460
00:23:35,519 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 2: It's like getting all these dudes come up and build

461
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:37,960
this thing together.

462
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,079
Speaker 1: I love that they're constantly punching at the building. Yes

463
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:41,799
all the time.

464
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:43,880
Speaker 5: Well, it just like you know, you're not just attracting

465
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:45,920
the pokemon, that's it. You've got to make them more comfortable.

466
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,400
And some of them like can do things to help you,

467
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:52,400
like some can make turn your logs into timber, some

468
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,880
can make your plants grow faster, some can start fires

469
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,359
where you need them to things like that. So I

470
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,480
don't know, it's just like all feels very exciting. It's

471
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,160
not like a glacier pace like you maybe expect with

472
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,000
these things. Like yeah, there's a little bit of talking

473
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,480
and stuff, but it's not upsetting or it gets in

474
00:24:08,559 --> 00:24:09,319
the thing.

475
00:24:10,039 --> 00:24:12,440
Speaker 1: Like the talking and like the writing in this game.

476
00:24:13,079 --> 00:24:14,759
I like that it's been picking up a lot of

477
00:24:14,839 --> 00:24:18,599
heat because it is actually kind of funny. Just like

478
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,119
the pokemon have distinct personalities. I swear one of them

479
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:26,000
is written like they have a long Island accent. And

480
00:24:26,039 --> 00:24:30,440
I can't remember which specific pokemon it was Charlion, it

481
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:34,920
could be Charmeilan gives off long Island vibes, right, but

482
00:24:35,039 --> 00:24:38,440
it's just very cute. It's clever with the writing, and

483
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,160
like it's just very earnest in how it's like pushing

484
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,920
me along to like keep engaging with it, because otherwise

485
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:45,559
I think I would just be buttoning through the story

486
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:49,240
like any dialogue and animal crossing, I don't care, right.

487
00:24:49,279 --> 00:24:51,279
Speaker 2: I don't know, Like that is part of the personality

488
00:24:51,279 --> 00:24:52,559
for me, Like that's part of what I like about

489
00:24:52,559 --> 00:24:54,759
animal crossing is just like the weird little personalities like

490
00:24:54,759 --> 00:24:57,799
that's my penguin neighbor, you know. Sure, but like this

491
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,440
is like a leisurely paced for sure, but it is

492
00:25:00,519 --> 00:25:02,920
not a thing. There's no real time clock, so it's

493
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,640
not like waiting forever, waiting three days for something to happen.

494
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,920
After you plant a tree, it's like, oh, okay, if

495
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:11,839
you put four flower beds next to the water on

496
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,160
the beach, that will be a habitat that a Pokemon

497
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,200
of some sort might show up, and like next time

498
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:18,920
you walk over there, it's gonna be like, whoa, who's

499
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,039
that in there? You know. So it's not waiting forever.

500
00:25:21,079 --> 00:25:21,640
You kind of get in.

501
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 5: Like the biggest time gate has been like when you're

502
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,559
rebuilding say the poke Pokemon, it's like, that'll be ready

503
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,960
the next day. I'm like, okay, well, there's plenty of

504
00:25:30,039 --> 00:25:32,400
things to do in the meantime.

505
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, some of like the bigger buildings that you wind

506
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:39,240
up putting together outside of the Pokemon centers, they do

507
00:25:39,319 --> 00:25:41,480
take a I wouldn't say significant amount of time. I

508
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:45,559
think at most the day, I've seen people's creations that

509
00:25:45,599 --> 00:25:47,799
have spent an obscene amount of time in the game already,

510
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,160
and I this is the part that irks irks me.

511
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,599
But this is more of a personal thing where Wow,

512
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,000
I have no sense of interior design, and you have

513
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,559
made such a lovely, gorgeous home for your hookem on

514
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,240
and I just look at mine and everything, like the

515
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:07,599
land is just haphazardly shaped, and there's a dirt tunnel

516
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:08,960
that I haven't finished.

517
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,400
Speaker 2: Because like anytime you see like someone in Tears of

518
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,119
the Kingdom made like a working factory or something, and

519
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:15,720
it's like, man, I'm just trying to get something to

520
00:26:15,759 --> 00:26:17,359
like launch this time and it's not working.

521
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:18,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, well you.

522
00:26:18,559 --> 00:26:20,799
Speaker 5: We're using like that one thing that's like a wing

523
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,759
and a lever in one fand that everybody used.

524
00:26:24,599 --> 00:26:25,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, here we go.

525
00:26:26,799 --> 00:26:29,559
Speaker 5: It's just a satisfying game and it seems like it's

526
00:26:29,559 --> 00:26:31,440
popping off in a huge way. Probably gonna be one

527
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,240
of the big games of the year. Honestly.

528
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,559
Speaker 2: Yes, the Dynasty Warriors team is there, like a mega force.

529
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 5: The dragon Quest Builders I know, but the dragon Quest

530
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,359
Builders team, I'm not sure what else they've done. I

531
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,960
can go well right now, which boy, I've always meant

532
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,240
to play those games as I heard, They're really good,

533
00:26:48,279 --> 00:26:50,799
and I like the dragon Quest franchise quite a bit.

534
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,039
Speaker 1: A lot of people have been saying that this is

535
00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,039
pretty much dragon Quest Builders three in their eyes.

536
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, like they I did like those at yeah, yeah, yeah,

537
00:26:59,519 --> 00:27:02,160
yeah that these people did work on Dynasty Words.

538
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,920
Speaker 5: That's incredible. That's that's crazy. Gosh, that's really funny.

539
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 1: H I think we should definitely check out some more

540
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,599
multiplayer stuff and just investigate more stuff with that.

541
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,599
Speaker 5: I'd like to Yes, yeah, I haven't done any of

542
00:27:16,599 --> 00:27:20,720
the multiplayer stuff either, and I mean, like, I know

543
00:27:20,759 --> 00:27:22,559
we did that stream then I wasn't in it. I

544
00:27:22,559 --> 00:27:24,119
guess I should go back and look. But I'm curious

545
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:25,880
what that is. I assume you just go to one

546
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,160
person's island and everyone else is kind of just running

547
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,640
around helping. So certain ways, I think you can do that.

548
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:33,440
But the way that Grubs set it up is that

549
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,640
you went to like a dream island, so it is

550
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:39,279
supposed to supposedly an island that is supposed to be

551
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:40,359
on all the time.

552
00:27:40,759 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 2: The cloud island thing.

553
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,599
Speaker 5: The cloud, Yes, that was the one thing I kind

554
00:27:44,599 --> 00:27:46,480
of like. I did it one time the tutorial, and

555
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:48,839
I know I can go once a day, but I'm like,

556
00:27:49,039 --> 00:27:50,799
it's not really what I want to do right now.

557
00:27:50,839 --> 00:27:53,279
Let's just go to some strange empty island and no.

558
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,279
Speaker 1: But then we can build it together though.

559
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 5: Oh yeah yeah yeah it's like a Minecraft server, right, yeah, yeah,

560
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:00,839
that's for the multiplayer part. Sure, like in the single

561
00:28:00,839 --> 00:28:03,160
player games, I go there and collect some resources and

562
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,400
come back. Yeah, I don't want to do that.

563
00:28:05,799 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 2: It really is one of those ideal podcast games or

564
00:28:08,279 --> 00:28:09,880
if you got something on the background you're half paying

565
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,880
attention to. It's just like, yeah, it's not going to

566
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:13,839
demand not a lot of cut scenes or voice acting

567
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:14,319
or anything.

568
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,079
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no voice acting at all. But

569
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,880
I hope that uh, you know, the Pokemon Company continues

570
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:25,759
to experiment with Pokemon and give it to different devs

571
00:28:25,799 --> 00:28:28,759
because this is great and I Mikey, I think we

572
00:28:28,799 --> 00:28:31,319
talked about it yesterday on game Miss Mornings. But like

573
00:28:31,559 --> 00:28:34,279
this game is actually selling out right.

574
00:28:34,559 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 5: Physical costs, selling out, copies, selling out.

575
00:28:38,279 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 2: That reminds me did any of you hear over the weekend,

576
00:28:40,759 --> 00:28:42,119
what happened with Kayla buying this game?

577
00:28:42,279 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: I heard about it. I hear about I.

578
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 2: Was ready to go to war over this if justice

579
00:28:49,799 --> 00:28:52,599
was not served. Oh no, you fucking She likes getting

580
00:28:52,599 --> 00:28:55,680
physical games with like modern games and stuff. I think

581
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,599
usually she trades them back and stuff like that. It's

582
00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,759
it makes sense if you're doing that. She goes to

583
00:28:59,839 --> 00:29:04,039
Game Stop, everyone's favorite corporation, and she went to go

584
00:29:04,119 --> 00:29:10,200
buy poke Topia, poke Pocopia, Poketo Pocopia, Pokepia. This motherfucker

585
00:29:10,599 --> 00:29:12,400
at the register tells her.

586
00:29:12,319 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: Like, whoa, how do you know he fox his mother.

587
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 2: Wait till you hear the story and you'll know. He says, okay,

588
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,319
so yeah, if you're buying this, you can't play it.

589
00:29:20,359 --> 00:29:22,720
He pointed to the thing that said game key card

590
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:24,640
at the bottom, you know, because it's one of those

591
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,160
game key card things, and he said, oh, yeah, you

592
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,759
can't play this unless you buy this. And he showed

593
00:29:29,759 --> 00:29:32,880
her this fifty dollars SD card and said that, like, yeah,

594
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:34,759
you can't play without this, and Kayler's like, okay, I

595
00:29:34,759 --> 00:29:37,079
didn't know that, and like she bought it, and then

596
00:29:37,119 --> 00:29:39,200
she told that story like she was on stream and

597
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:40,839
she's like, I didn't know I needed like a micro

598
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,759
chippy thing to play this game. And everyone in chat,

599
00:29:43,759 --> 00:29:46,759
including me, was like, what did they tell you? And

600
00:29:46,799 --> 00:29:49,480
she's like something about GameCube and I was like, something's

601
00:29:49,519 --> 00:29:53,440
off here, what's going on out We sussed out it

602
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,720
was game key card, but yeah, this guy said that, like, yeah,

603
00:29:56,759 --> 00:29:58,759
you need this to play it. So she went back

604
00:29:58,799 --> 00:30:01,240
the next day and the guy, the manager, was like, oh,

605
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,279
you can't return this was opened. And I told her,

606
00:30:03,279 --> 00:30:05,480
I was you make sure you tell them exactly what

607
00:30:05,519 --> 00:30:07,359
you told Chad about how they told you you needed

608
00:30:07,359 --> 00:30:09,079
it to play it, And I guess the guy gave

609
00:30:09,079 --> 00:30:12,200
her a refund, and then she left game Stop. She

610
00:30:12,279 --> 00:30:14,359
saw the original guy that lied to were sitting in

611
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,480
his car eating ice cream, and she specifically just drove

612
00:30:17,519 --> 00:30:19,079
in front of the guy's car to flip him off

613
00:30:19,079 --> 00:30:19,720
in the speed away.

614
00:30:19,799 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so her energy I think is cool. It's fine.

615
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:29,359
Speaker 3: I can never I can't blame people who work at

616
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:35,000
game for line people here, so it's not so they

617
00:30:35,039 --> 00:30:38,920
are like basically held against their will to they are

618
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,359
incentivized like it is.

619
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 1: It is the fault of the corporation. Well, they are pushing.

620
00:30:43,759 --> 00:30:45,559
Speaker 2: I worked at the story level. I worked at best Buy,

621
00:30:45,599 --> 00:30:47,440
and they pushed you need to like add on accessories

622
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:49,359
and periferles and stuff. But you can also just be

623
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:50,400
a shit bag and like.

624
00:30:50,799 --> 00:30:54,519
Speaker 3: Totally totally again, like I have sympathy for people who

625
00:30:54,599 --> 00:30:57,920
are put into a situation that is like unmovable.

626
00:30:57,960 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: It sucks. Should they have lot?

627
00:31:00,039 --> 00:31:02,599
Speaker 3: I like that, No, of course, not that deserves a

628
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,000
couple of middle fingers, for sure. I just think it's

629
00:31:05,079 --> 00:31:09,319
crazy that like they're put into this situation of like, yeah,

630
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,039
you you you're employed, and you have to be shitty

631
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,680
to be to work here, don't. I mean, like there's

632
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,519
I understand, but these guys get like quotas they have

633
00:31:18,599 --> 00:31:20,039
to hit, Like I get it.

634
00:31:20,039 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 1: It sucks.

635
00:31:21,839 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 3: I yeah, I just obviously it's a it's a byproduct

636
00:31:26,039 --> 00:31:29,039
of the corporation and not necessarily like I don't believe

637
00:31:29,079 --> 00:31:32,519
this is an inherently evil person who's just like hmm.

638
00:31:32,839 --> 00:31:35,319
Speaker 5: Well, it's just again, it starts off like, oh, you

639
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,640
gotta like sell a lot of accessories, and then I

640
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:38,680
guess panic sets in.

641
00:31:38,759 --> 00:31:40,480
Speaker 3: But and then it's like, oh then I get fired

642
00:31:40,519 --> 00:31:42,960
if I don't all right, well I'm saying.

643
00:31:42,799 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 1: The whole like gonna lie about Like I'm not defending line.

644
00:31:47,519 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 2: That's a lot where it's like when I worked there,

645
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,200
it was all about the fun club thing or whatever

646
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,079
turn into game stop pro players player card whatever, and

647
00:31:55,119 --> 00:31:57,440
like there are ways where it's like, Okay, this person's

648
00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,200
trading in a shitload of games and buying a bunch

649
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,319
of US games and so it is an easy sell

650
00:32:01,359 --> 00:32:03,640
and and I would feel good about it, being like, hey,

651
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:05,200
if you're doing a bunch of use games and stuff,

652
00:32:05,279 --> 00:32:07,680
if you get this card, it's gonna pay for itself

653
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:09,440
next time you do a trade end of this value

654
00:32:09,519 --> 00:32:11,039
or whatever. So like go and get this, you're gonna

655
00:32:11,039 --> 00:32:12,440
get the free game in form of subscription. With it,

656
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,359
you got a year of getting a discount on the

657
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,160
use games. Like there are use cases where it's like, Okay,

658
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,559
this serves both purposes. They are getting something that pays

659
00:32:19,559 --> 00:32:21,880
for itself, and I'm also my stats look better for

660
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,279
my job or whatever. But like it's the outright lining

661
00:32:24,319 --> 00:32:27,119
thing that I'm just like that.

662
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,519
Speaker 5: I'm not discounting the possibility that the person is also

663
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:35,079
maybe just very stupid. It's it's some weird twisted way

664
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:40,519
that she needed she saw this game in his own

665
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,000
mine was like, that's an SD card.

666
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:44,519
Speaker 1: I know what that means.

667
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 3: And like, you know, don't they get like they get

668
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,200
like you know, the sort of like talking points and

669
00:32:52,279 --> 00:32:54,359
the and the kid and like so you're implying that

670
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,960
like they they were sent some literature that was like this.

671
00:32:58,519 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 1: I don't say.

672
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 5: I don't think this person can read.

673
00:33:00,319 --> 00:33:03,279
Speaker 3: I don't think Jean. I think, yeah, it sucks. It

674
00:33:03,359 --> 00:33:05,720
sucks ass, But like you know, I get it. You

675
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,680
can be mad at the people. I'm mad at the

676
00:33:07,799 --> 00:33:09,839
corporation having such.

677
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 2: An insta all timersty company for sure.

678
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:17,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just you know, sometimes you don't got to

679
00:33:17,079 --> 00:33:20,240
tell the company line, especially when you're abused at the

680
00:33:20,279 --> 00:33:23,759
retail level. Hey look we are you know, we are

681
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,799
worship McCall. We're in a good We're.

682
00:33:26,319 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 3: In a different spot, right So maybe again.

683
00:33:30,039 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 1: Launch Look continues to drive us all apart. No, no, no,

684
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,680
here's here's my pitch, and I'm gonna put it here.

685
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,079
I put it on our discord. I think it's hilarious

686
00:33:37,079 --> 00:33:39,920
if we call them long looks. I like that better.

687
00:33:40,039 --> 00:33:44,599
Jan that's got a better Mouthfield long Look, long Look,

688
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:49,839
Launch Look. I can't get into what I can't you're lying.

689
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,880
You're just lying. Now, thank you for your doing a

690
00:33:53,920 --> 00:34:03,000
thing speaking about uh lying, Mike Manatti, you have been

691
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:07,319
exploring lying in Lies of pe the deal, Yeah, the

692
00:34:07,359 --> 00:34:07,799
whole thing.

693
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,800
Speaker 5: I went through, finished the base game at a great time.

694
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,280
Then did the DLC, which came out just last year,

695
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,519
and that is some beefy DLC. I mean they could have.

696
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 1: Called that Lies of p two.

697
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,800
Speaker 5: It's like really it's like ten hours of content, right,

698
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,360
like longer than a traditional from Soft deal. So except

699
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,039
it maybe not urchree, right, that was pretty big, so

700
00:34:28,559 --> 00:34:30,519
kind of like kind of on those levels of whoa,

701
00:34:30,519 --> 00:34:34,119
this is like a whole separate thing and it's not

702
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,119
trick at all. Tons of new bosses that you're playing

703
00:34:37,119 --> 00:34:40,599
in there. I can't remember exactly, but like six seven God,

704
00:34:40,599 --> 00:34:42,480
I did not mean to do that, I swear to God.

705
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,559
Speaker 1: But yeah it's okay, nobody cares anymore. Good, good, good,

706
00:34:46,599 --> 00:34:46,960
thank god.

707
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 5: But boy, I had a great time with Lies of

708
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,320
Pea because it really is like the greatest hits of

709
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,840
the stuff from the from games that you want in

710
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:59,840
terms of that kind of like grim atmosphere, uh you know,

711
00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:02,159
the but you have the mechanics like the dodging and

712
00:35:02,199 --> 00:35:07,360
the character building from like say Bloodborn or a Dark Souls.

713
00:35:07,559 --> 00:35:10,239
But then you also got the parrying U do you

714
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,280
make in a secero? And I love the pairying.

715
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 1: Is there any like like continuation of the story at all, Mike,

716
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:18,760
or is it just like a kind of like branching

717
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:19,800
off to like a different path.

718
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,760
Speaker 5: It's believe it, there's time travelsing in again. So it's

719
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:26,119
actually kind of a prequel sort of thing here, which

720
00:35:26,159 --> 00:35:27,639
is kind of neat because you sort of see some

721
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,960
characters that you knew a little bit during the main game,

722
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,559
with some characters who are kind of like already like

723
00:35:33,599 --> 00:35:35,840
past their prime or done or like very much in

724
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,639
their prime. And our big threats here and like a

725
00:35:38,639 --> 00:35:40,039
lot of these games, they kind of are like, well,

726
00:35:40,079 --> 00:35:42,280
you beat the basic probably, so these are going to

727
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,840
be the really hard bosses and that is a ton

728
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:49,519
of fun. Last boss especially is basically a serial killer,

729
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,920
crazy puppet guy who like first is just coming at

730
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,519
you with weird like knives and trying to gut you.

731
00:35:55,559 --> 00:35:59,320
And then the second phase becomes like Angel Satan, which

732
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,360
is you know, his is the thing, so God just

733
00:36:02,639 --> 00:36:04,559
but boy, like you know, It's very much like in

734
00:36:04,599 --> 00:36:06,679
a sec row field of like, oh, I am learning

735
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:10,519
these patterns, and at first it seems impossible. These these

736
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:12,840
these combos are like nine attacks a long. How can

737
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:16,440
I possibly ever get by this? And then suddenly it

738
00:36:16,519 --> 00:36:19,719
just clicks and you have that run and it feels

739
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:20,599
so freaking good.

740
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:22,440
Speaker 2: I was a little intrigued because I had not seen

741
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,360
the game in motion really until I saw you streaming

742
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:26,519
a bit over the weekend, and it's like you're flying

743
00:36:26,559 --> 00:36:29,159
around with this like rocket thing, and then like some

744
00:36:29,199 --> 00:36:31,760
of the enemies I love, just like the like weird

745
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,440
robot guards, but not like cool future robots, like weird

746
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:38,039
old clanking and stuff like. Yeah, I kind of like

747
00:36:38,119 --> 00:36:40,800
the look of this game. So that's a little curious.

748
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:41,159
Speaker 1: That's the thing.

749
00:36:41,159 --> 00:36:43,760
Speaker 5: It's like, I do like the whole kind of maybe

750
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:45,880
steampunk's not the word, but it's kind of this Victorian

751
00:36:46,079 --> 00:36:51,199
creepy robot, which like I find super interesting, you know,

752
00:36:51,519 --> 00:36:54,280
like more so than say, there's a little bit that

753
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,559
Lovecraftian vibe here that's very predominant and a bloodborne but

754
00:36:57,599 --> 00:37:01,159
that's not necessarily always been my favorite kind of aesthetic.

755
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,159
This speaks to me even where yeah, the weapons in

756
00:37:04,199 --> 00:37:06,599
the game in general are cool, but the DLC adds

757
00:37:06,639 --> 00:37:10,320
a ton of neat weapons. My rocket sphere, which one

758
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:12,559
of the attacks did just on me literally kind of

759
00:37:12,639 --> 00:37:15,639
rocket along with it for as long as I had stamina.

760
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,280
At one point I got just squalls gun blade from

761
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,639
Final Fantasy eight, Like he literally even like rested it

762
00:37:20,679 --> 00:37:23,559
on his shoulder exactly the same way. It was like

763
00:37:23,599 --> 00:37:25,159
the point where was like, man, I wouldn't mind doing

764
00:37:25,199 --> 00:37:27,199
New Game Plus and just playing the whole game with

765
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,239
the gun blade. That sounds like a good time.

766
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 1: Oh that's cool, Okay, I gotta check this out then.

767
00:37:32,559 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 2: Yeah quick, yeah, before we're off from stuff I did.

768
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:38,360
I told myself I was gonna maybe in a few

769
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:40,360
months or something, come back and beat the Demon of

770
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,559
Hatred and Securo. I just streamed it over the weekend

771
00:37:43,599 --> 00:37:46,079
and beat the Deme of Hatred and it's just like, okay, man,

772
00:37:46,119 --> 00:37:49,400
I just I want to just replay that game already.

773
00:37:49,519 --> 00:37:51,119
It's uh now, yeah.

774
00:37:51,159 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 5: It's because like I'm not usually a DEALC guy, but

775
00:37:54,519 --> 00:37:57,599
something about these kind of souls likes they usually always

776
00:37:57,599 --> 00:38:01,159
have really good DLC that most people just consider part

777
00:38:01,159 --> 00:38:03,239
of the game. Sakro is the one that never really

778
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:03,639
got that.

779
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 1: I think.

780
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 5: So it's a bit of a bummer in that case

781
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:11,320
because I could absolutely use uh some more Sacroo. But boy, yeah,

782
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,159
I like Liza p a Ton, I think it's just

783
00:38:14,199 --> 00:38:16,880
as good as a lot of even the frum stoft stuff.

784
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:20,159
Maybe not, but as the tippy top like eldering sacro

785
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,239
for me. But and I know this as sacro some people.

786
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:27,239
I think it's kind of in that same tier as

787
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:30,400
like a Dark Soul's Dark Souls three even.

788
00:38:30,559 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: It's too crazy. I feel like I've seen very positive

789
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:35,239
sentiment with who made that?

790
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 2: Where did this come from? Like I remember like first

791
00:38:37,039 --> 00:38:39,000
hearing man like there's some weird Pinocchio Dark Soul. I

792
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:40,480
thought it was like a gimmick, you know, like a

793
00:38:40,639 --> 00:38:43,000
meme game or something. It's like, who the fuck made this?

794
00:38:43,119 --> 00:38:47,679
Speaker 5: No, it was called Neo Korean game Neo w is Yeah, yeah, yeah,

795
00:38:47,679 --> 00:38:50,519
it's South It's a South Korean game studio. Who like

796
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,920
I think most of the other stuff you've probably not

797
00:38:54,039 --> 00:38:57,199
heard of, right, And yeah, then for some reason they

798
00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,960
just made a very very good Souls like.

799
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,519
Speaker 1: The Banger Mike. Have you ever checked out any of

800
00:39:03,559 --> 00:39:08,199
the other Souls like games like Wu Kong or any

801
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:08,599
of those.

802
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 5: I think I played Wukong for a bit. I might

803
00:39:11,039 --> 00:39:14,960
check out there's Wukong and Wu Chong, which so I

804
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,440
can never remember which one was which, I gotta be honest,

805
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,320
but not a ton. I bought the Surge games really

806
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:21,239
cheap recently.

807
00:39:21,519 --> 00:39:25,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yes, I remember tam feeling okay about the

808
00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:26,559
Surge games.

809
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:27,119
Speaker 2: Yeah.

810
00:39:27,599 --> 00:39:30,800
Speaker 5: At the time, they were like the first other Souls likes, right,

811
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,280
So I wonder if maybe they got a little grace

812
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,320
because of that, or maybe like the second one is

813
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:39,079
better than the first one. So who knows, I might

814
00:39:39,159 --> 00:39:41,119
I might look into some of the other ones, like

815
00:39:41,199 --> 00:39:45,639
Kazan whoa Loong Oh you know it's it's see, I've

816
00:39:45,639 --> 00:39:47,360
been on such a kick with these that maybe I

817
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:51,199
should take a little break. I don't know, but there

818
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,559
he always sort of adjacent, and maybe I would Maybe

819
00:39:54,599 --> 00:39:56,400
I could go back to New three and start that

820
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:58,480
from the beginning, because I kind of started. I had

821
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:00,599
that weird play through right now that I with Kayla

822
00:40:00,639 --> 00:40:02,119
where I was kind of running past half of the

823
00:40:02,119 --> 00:40:06,239
game just to get to a boss. But yeah, there's

824
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:11,360
I don't know. I do like this style of action game.

825
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,719
I'm realizing even more so than say, character action, which

826
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:15,599
I know is kind of you know, and I like

827
00:40:15,679 --> 00:40:18,159
those fine, like more so than character action or whatever

828
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,280
sort of action you call, like the God of were

829
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:23,679
cool down action game. I suppose, I don't know, but

830
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:27,400
something that's very the crux of the gameplay is sort

831
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:30,239
of reading the opponents right, as long as it involves

832
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:33,239
that and kind the bit of that pattern recognition, That's

833
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:34,039
what I'm really into.

834
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:40,679
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, speaking about playing older games, Dan, You've been

835
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,079
checking out Mini Shoot Adventures again.

836
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's like the first time I played it

837
00:40:46,159 --> 00:40:47,920
was on Steam Deck. So it's not like, wow, it's

838
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:49,360
on the go because that time I played it the

839
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,400
first time. But I'm playing it again and just instantly

840
00:40:52,519 --> 00:40:54,119
having fun with it and just like I think, this

841
00:40:54,159 --> 00:40:56,119
is what this is just all I need games to be.

842
00:40:56,519 --> 00:40:58,280
It's just the thing they did all of the game

843
00:40:58,280 --> 00:40:58,920
things I need.

844
00:40:58,920 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 1: This is great.

845
00:41:00,039 --> 00:41:02,400
Speaker 2: I'm moving, I'm shooting, I'm fighting bosses, I'm solving puzzles.

846
00:41:02,519 --> 00:41:06,440
It's it's still I think I like the art style

847
00:41:06,519 --> 00:41:08,559
more now that it's been more time, because I remember

848
00:41:08,639 --> 00:41:11,480
it feeling like a little more flash gamy the first time,

849
00:41:11,599 --> 00:41:13,119
and now it's like I look at it and I

850
00:41:13,159 --> 00:41:15,159
just think, oh, yeah, that's the mini shoot art style.

851
00:41:15,199 --> 00:41:19,639
It's fine, it's good. Yeah, it's just a tremendously satisfying game,

852
00:41:19,639 --> 00:41:22,000
and like just the way deals with upgrades and stuff,

853
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:23,440
and how easy it is to kind of slop those

854
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,719
gyms in and out, and it's pretty open as far

855
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,320
as the map, Like it's very easy to just kind

856
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:30,960
of go well outside of your map region that you've

857
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,000
got unlocked and just kind of explore and level up

858
00:41:33,039 --> 00:41:36,119
beyond where the game would normally have you go. But yeah,

859
00:41:36,199 --> 00:41:37,719
just another shout out. Like I know, I talked about

860
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:39,639
it constantly when it first came out, but again now

861
00:41:39,639 --> 00:41:42,440
that it's on Switch to Many Shoot Adventures, it's Zelda

862
00:41:42,599 --> 00:41:45,920
Geometry Wars. That just those two things together and turns

863
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:46,960
out that works very well.

864
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 1: That's why it's oh go ahead back.

865
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,920
Speaker 3: Oh sorry I'm saying that's why it's like back in

866
00:41:52,039 --> 00:41:55,679
conversation because of the switch to release, right, Yeah, yep,

867
00:41:56,039 --> 00:41:59,519
I feel like that's like low key a good strategy.

868
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,679
I realized switched to is a relatively new ish platform,

869
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,079
But if you were to like wanting to get that

870
00:42:06,199 --> 00:42:08,079
shot in the arm, I don't know, this is a

871
00:42:08,079 --> 00:42:11,119
perfect game to kind of have like a second victory

872
00:42:11,199 --> 00:42:12,159
lap sort of thing, you know.

873
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:16,119
Speaker 1: And yeah, Dan, we're ever a fan of like old

874
00:42:16,159 --> 00:42:17,679
shoot them ups or schmups?

875
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:21,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, I always liked them. I never got like, like

876
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,880
there were the bullet hell is where I got at

877
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:25,719
the point where it's like I never played them enough

878
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:27,559
to get good at him. Like I remember, I deeply

879
00:42:27,599 --> 00:42:29,920
respected like Ikaruga when it came out right, like oh,

880
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,559
this is like obviously a very good game. But I

881
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:34,400
just wasn't like I don't know if I wasn't good

882
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,199
enough or didn't spend the time really to get good

883
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:39,079
at them. But yeah, like nineteen forty two, you know,

884
00:42:39,119 --> 00:42:41,280
anytime I saw a schmup a an arcade, I would

885
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:42,119
play it in unit.

886
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:45,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like a whole separate fandom. It's it's interesting,

887
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:47,400
like I kind of peeked behind the curtain less year.

888
00:42:47,559 --> 00:42:49,440
I was like schmuck curious. I'm like, oh, there's like

889
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,760
a whole other community that is just like these are

890
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,360
the games we really like, And I find it fascinating.

891
00:42:55,519 --> 00:42:56,039
Speaker 1: I learned that.

892
00:42:56,119 --> 00:42:58,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, when I started the GI I remember I had

893
00:42:58,119 --> 00:43:01,400
to review like a Skullgirls was one of them, and

894
00:43:01,599 --> 00:43:04,880
I I didn't like it, Yeah, or was it?

895
00:43:05,119 --> 00:43:05,280
Speaker 1: Yeah?

896
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:08,360
Speaker 2: It was it looks like it had that type of

897
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:09,119
vibe to it.

898
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:14,599
Speaker 5: It wasn't anymore a goal gallvillions or something garden.

899
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 2: Maybe it was something that I just wasn't super hot on.

900
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,159
And like the responses I got was like, whoa, Okay,

901
00:43:20,199 --> 00:43:22,880
some people are real into the schmups and very defensively.

902
00:43:23,039 --> 00:43:26,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, Well speaking about games

903
00:43:26,519 --> 00:43:28,199
that just got to do the thing and they're good,

904
00:43:29,119 --> 00:43:34,519
Mike Manatti, you streamed yesterday Slay the Spire too.

905
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,599
Speaker 5: Yeah, did a couple of runs for the site, then

906
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:43,000
played a few more that evening. Boy, it's funny. I

907
00:43:43,039 --> 00:43:45,960
only played the first lay Inspire finally last year as

908
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:49,440
part as my twenty nineteen apology tour. I was like, oh,

909
00:43:49,559 --> 00:43:52,280
this is a really good game. Somebody especially spent a

910
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:55,119
lot of time with Heartstone and and likes card games

911
00:43:55,519 --> 00:43:57,880
that kind of got tired of, like, oh it's another

912
00:43:58,559 --> 00:44:01,679
two months spent fifty dollar on more digital cards. That's

913
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,079
kind of getting hard to keep up with. If you

914
00:44:04,119 --> 00:44:05,880
have the deck build or I just you know, have

915
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:07,960
a game and I'm gonna make a new deck each

916
00:44:08,039 --> 00:44:09,800
time and have to make that work, but I still

917
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:13,400
kind of get the same neurons activated in my brain.

918
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:18,440
It's fun stuff, and this is also very fun. It's

919
00:44:18,519 --> 00:44:21,440
definitely slight the spire too, right, you're doing the same

920
00:44:21,519 --> 00:44:23,400
kind of things. You're making those you know, you start

921
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:26,239
with the very basic decks and you're trying to get

922
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:28,920
rid of the basic cards and get better cards and

923
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:31,760
try to find some synergies of Okay, my deck is

924
00:44:32,199 --> 00:44:34,039
drawing a lot of cards, or the cards that are

925
00:44:34,079 --> 00:44:36,559
strong with that, or ooh, I have a lot of

926
00:44:36,639 --> 00:44:38,360
cards that are getting me shields. They are a way

927
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,280
to turn my defense into offense. You have the different

928
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:44,599
characters that each have some kind of different gimmicks, starting

929
00:44:44,639 --> 00:44:46,480
off where it's like, oh, this guy heals himself at

930
00:44:46,519 --> 00:44:49,320
their battle too. This is a necromancer and he has

931
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:51,719
a pet, and you can give the pet more max

932
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,360
help and then the pet can attack and you're right.

933
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,039
So you know, it gets more complicated all the way.

934
00:44:57,079 --> 00:45:00,440
That's very satisfying because just the basic process of trying

935
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:03,719
to complete a run with each of these characters is

936
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:05,960
a good time, and then there's challenges beyond that work.

937
00:45:06,079 --> 00:45:09,079
This could just be the game you play.

938
00:45:09,119 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 1: This could be your.

939
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,840
Speaker 5: Game now I have to try it out, like the

940
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,320
co op, which I think is the big new thing here,

941
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,599
which maybe you know because right now, like, oh yeah,

942
00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:20,480
it is Slay the Spire too. It is Slay the

943
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:23,400
Spire some more and some new, and that's fine. I'm

944
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:25,920
curious that the co op really shakes things up.

945
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:28,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. I saw a little bit of Game Informer streaming

946
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:31,840
the co op, and I just don't know if I

947
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,960
would want to devote like a couple of runs to

948
00:45:35,119 --> 00:45:37,920
having to like balance and work with someone else, just

949
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,199
because the way like I play those games, I'm kind

950
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:42,880
of just like doing the site reading of like all right,

951
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:46,159
just rattling through and like, all right, this is the

952
00:45:46,199 --> 00:45:49,400
most optimum build for this run. I'm just gonna blast

953
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:52,119
through it versus like taking too much time to think

954
00:45:52,119 --> 00:45:52,559
about it.

955
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:54,760
Speaker 5: I bet it's really good, and I bet I'll also

956
00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:56,719
try it out once and probably not engage with that

957
00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:58,079
system anymore.

958
00:45:58,320 --> 00:45:59,559
Speaker 1: Who knows. I want to try.

959
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:02,400
Speaker 5: It to, but it's like I'm usually pretty cautious about

960
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,280
early access stuff to like maybe I'll try a little

961
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:07,119
bit and then I'll be like, oh I want a

962
00:46:07,119 --> 00:46:09,159
wait for this game to be out. This game feels

963
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,960
like I'm playing a full game. Likes, I could see

964
00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:14,360
how they're gonna maybe add you know, they're gonna add

965
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:17,000
more to it, for sure, more cards and like some

966
00:46:17,199 --> 00:46:20,280
other things, but not in some way that feels like

967
00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:22,559
I'm having lesser experience in some of the early act

968
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:24,719
Excuse me, some of the early access stuff is actually

969
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:27,480
kind of charming. Like when it's not final art, it

970
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,800
literally looks like a kid's like crayon drawing of what

971
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:32,519
something is and it's you know, it says like not

972
00:46:32,679 --> 00:46:35,440
final and I actually love that Art's like, that's some

973
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:37,840
of my favorite looking stuff in the game is like

974
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:41,719
some guy drew a star field or like a demon

975
00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:44,239
and yeah, it looks like a first grader did it.

976
00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:46,239
That stuff's fantastic.

977
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:50,679
Speaker 1: Uh, speaking about a game that parts of it are

978
00:46:51,119 --> 00:46:52,679
well parts of it to me feel like it's an

979
00:46:52,679 --> 00:46:56,039
early access Dan, you and I have been playing in

980
00:46:56,119 --> 00:46:59,280
checking out WWE two K twenty six.

981
00:47:00,199 --> 00:47:03,599
Speaker 2: Man, if people want to see the long form look

982
00:47:03,639 --> 00:47:05,639
at it, like, I don't think anything we can say

983
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,800
with our voices here can get across just how casino

984
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:12,599
bullshit this game is. I don't even think there's not

985
00:47:12,639 --> 00:47:15,480
even enough with the actual gameplay that's changed or upgraded

986
00:47:15,559 --> 00:47:17,159
or gotten better or worse or anything to even like

987
00:47:17,199 --> 00:47:19,400
it's that same fucking game it's been for a long

988
00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:21,000
time since like two K twenty two, which is like

989
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:25,280
a serviceable ish but I still don't think fun wrestling game.

990
00:47:25,679 --> 00:47:27,880
But it is just wrapped now in the most like

991
00:47:28,039 --> 00:47:30,519
as someone who doesn't play like the other like NBA

992
00:47:30,559 --> 00:47:32,119
two K or FIFA or any of that shit, I

993
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:34,440
just don't like this whole like card thing and this

994
00:47:34,519 --> 00:47:38,320
whole like an app just super aggressive shit, Like it's

995
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:40,599
new to me. I only see it here. And every

996
00:47:40,599 --> 00:47:43,119
time I go into like a my Faction mode or something,

997
00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:46,239
and I'm hit with four hundred fucking screens of just

998
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:48,559
like buy this VC and buy this booster, and here's

999
00:47:48,599 --> 00:47:51,440
the sixteen different passes and upgrades, and like I look

1000
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:53,639
at a roster of four hundred wrestlers, which is great

1001
00:47:53,679 --> 00:47:55,880
on paper, but then when half of them are great

1002
00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:57,639
out and it's like, oh you and b Bray whatt

1003
00:47:57,679 --> 00:47:59,079
you have to go through my rise for this. Oh

1004
00:47:59,119 --> 00:48:00,760
you gotta go through the trip like ringside pass. If

1005
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:02,239
you want to get the burned version of Bray White,

1006
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:05,280
you gotta get Hollywood Hogan is behind this, it's just like, Okay,

1007
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:09,000
this fucking sucks. It's it's just yeah, deeply unenjoyable.

1008
00:48:09,519 --> 00:48:13,039
Speaker 1: And I haven't actually gotten my hands on, uh one

1009
00:48:13,079 --> 00:48:16,239
of these games, like I've mostly consumed them through like

1010
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:18,559
quick looks that we'll put on or just like watching

1011
00:48:18,679 --> 00:48:23,559
other content creators do stuff with it. And sometimes I'll

1012
00:48:23,559 --> 00:48:25,920
just set up an AI match, not actually just play

1013
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,559
the actual game. But since I have the code, I

1014
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:30,880
wanted to dip into the wrestling and give it a

1015
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:33,760
proper shot, because there are people that genuinely really like

1016
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:37,679
the wrestling in these games. I don't know how now,

1017
00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:38,239
who they.

1018
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 2: Like looking above a fucking character's head and waiting for

1019
00:48:40,519 --> 00:48:42,519
a y prompt and then missing it and then watching

1020
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:45,840
that sounds it's a real fun time.

1021
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:50,519
Speaker 1: It's it's really cool. And also, Dan, I don't know

1022
00:48:50,559 --> 00:48:53,559
what the fuck they're going for, because are they trying

1023
00:48:53,599 --> 00:48:57,559
to go for a sim wrestling game or because it's

1024
00:48:57,599 --> 00:49:00,440
not Arcadie, Because it's not fun to just jump in

1025
00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:03,599
and play. I can't imagine giving this to a friend

1026
00:49:04,199 --> 00:49:08,280
that is like, oh, coming over and wants to play

1027
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,400
like a multiplayer game. Fucking way no, because like, at

1028
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:14,280
least with any other fighting game, you could parse out

1029
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,559
what to do. You could mash buns and still have

1030
00:49:16,639 --> 00:49:17,079
a good time.

1031
00:49:17,159 --> 00:49:19,119
Speaker 2: And here's how you're a finisher, here's how you do like.

1032
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:20,039
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1033
00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:21,559
Speaker 2: The thing that that's always been the problem with the

1034
00:49:21,559 --> 00:49:24,840
wrestling is there's so many different circumstances where it's like, Okay, well,

1035
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:26,719
this guy's finisher is done in the corner, this guy's

1036
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:29,400
finisher is a ray masterio? How do you set up

1037
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:29,960
the six one nine?

1038
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 1: How do you like?

1039
00:49:30,559 --> 00:49:32,280
Speaker 2: If you play these games a ton, you know how

1040
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:33,840
to do it. But if you're just like having a

1041
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:35,880
friend over to you know, like you can have a

1042
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,079
friend over and play Mortal Kombat and have fun. Yes,

1043
00:49:38,119 --> 00:49:39,960
you know, you don't have to know every movement fatality.

1044
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,079
You can still basically understand the language of the game.

1045
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:45,079
Wrestling doesn't work that way, and so like good wrestling

1046
00:49:45,119 --> 00:49:47,039
games are the ones that have been boiled down to

1047
00:49:47,159 --> 00:49:49,000
like everyone points to the sixty four ones for a

1048
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:52,039
reason or here comes the pain. They were boiled down enough,

1049
00:49:52,039 --> 00:49:54,280
they were arcadie enough, they didn't have to be full

1050
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:58,079
on WWE All Star's cartoon land, but they certainly weren't

1051
00:49:58,079 --> 00:50:00,840
sims And I don't think wrestling game work as sims.

1052
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:03,360
I don't think they ever really have. And yeah, not

1053
00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:03,920
the case.

1054
00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:06,320
Speaker 1: Here, and we we highlighted in the quick look, but

1055
00:50:06,639 --> 00:50:11,400
it is just so mismatched the different wrestler models, like

1056
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:14,119
some of them like, oh, you put more work into

1057
00:50:14,199 --> 00:50:18,039
so and so versus other person because other person looks

1058
00:50:18,119 --> 00:50:19,840
like shit in comparison.

1059
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:24,239
Speaker 2: Trust me, they were gonna very lovingly recreate Triple H.

1060
00:50:24,519 --> 00:50:27,199
And then if you're a I don't know, like Maxine

1061
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:29,199
Duprix or something's probably not going to be quite wonder

1062
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:29,880
yeah you know.

1063
00:50:30,079 --> 00:50:32,760
Speaker 1: And I'm like, how could you disrespect Delo Brown like this?

1064
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:38,599
And no Delo uh? And then you know, Dan, like I,

1065
00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:41,480
just for morbid curiosity sake, I went into like the

1066
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:43,360
is it my factions? That is a card?

1067
00:50:43,559 --> 00:50:44,360
Speaker 2: That's the card thing?

1068
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,760
Speaker 1: Yeah? Right? And then y'all know, I like games like

1069
00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:51,320
Uma Musume, which is kind of like a management card

1070
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:54,280
game when you boil it down, and I wanted to like,

1071
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:56,239
not that I wanted to like it, but I just

1072
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:58,639
wanted to try and understand it and understand the appeal

1073
00:50:58,639 --> 00:51:02,400
because just like Dan, I've never engaged with all the FIFA,

1074
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:06,039
all the NBA two cabullshit with the cards, so like

1075
00:51:06,199 --> 00:51:10,800
who is obsessed with this and why? And y'all also

1076
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,280
know I like opening like physical cards and stuff, so

1077
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:17,599
I thought maybe it'll like hit that dopamine. There absolutely not.

1078
00:51:18,119 --> 00:51:23,440
Some of it is just so purposely obtuse and just

1079
00:51:23,519 --> 00:51:27,599
like so poorly designed. But you know, it is designed

1080
00:51:27,639 --> 00:51:31,119
in such a predatory way that whoever this appeals to

1081
00:51:31,559 --> 00:51:35,960
it is made to exploit their wallets. Yeah, and like

1082
00:51:36,079 --> 00:51:39,079
keep engaging with it, and it's just not even fun.

1083
00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:41,760
Speaker 2: No, And it's just so egregious with this stuff where it's,

1084
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:43,480
like I said in the quick look, but like they

1085
00:51:43,519 --> 00:51:46,360
make it seem like there's four different editions of the game,

1086
00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:48,840
Like you know, here's the delect edition, Here's the Collector's Edition.

1087
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:50,519
Whatever with this one. It's like here's the King of

1088
00:51:50,559 --> 00:51:53,760
King's Triple Ah Edition, Here's the Attitude Era edition, Here's

1089
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,920
the Monday Night War Edition. And it's like it made

1090
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:58,800
me think when they originally announced it, it's like, oh,

1091
00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:01,000
I guess they're doing like another Attitude story mode. No,

1092
00:52:01,159 --> 00:52:04,039
punk is the showcase mode. These fucking mode like one

1093
00:52:04,119 --> 00:52:07,199
hundred and fifty dollars or whatever. Monday Night Wars Edition

1094
00:52:08,079 --> 00:52:09,760
it's not like you get a bunch of Monday Night

1095
00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:11,960
War stuff. You open up like a pack where it's like, oh,

1096
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:15,280
I can be Hollywood Hogan and Kevin Nash and wo

1097
00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:18,119
style and like in a card on like a card

1098
00:52:18,159 --> 00:52:20,679
pack thing for your my faction thing. It's just like

1099
00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:23,719
it's a jpeg of Kevin Nash. Look, I love Kevin Nash,

1100
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:25,880
but like, good lord, that's one hundred and fifty dollars

1101
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:29,159
for that and some some currency that it's just not

1102
00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:31,760
it's so emblematic of the current state of w DOE,

1103
00:52:32,079 --> 00:52:34,920
of TKO, of from what I hear two K and

1104
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:37,480
their sports games. It's just like it's just so gross

1105
00:52:37,559 --> 00:52:39,880
and uh, it's overwhelming with that shit.

1106
00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:42,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I really don't understand this island that they've

1107
00:52:43,079 --> 00:52:43,559
made this.

1108
00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:47,039
Speaker 2: Really weird and stupid. It's it's just another virtual shop.

1109
00:52:47,119 --> 00:52:48,440
Let's go to the Nike store, Let's go to the

1110
00:52:48,519 --> 00:52:51,159
Jordan store. Let's yeah, it's just insane.

1111
00:52:51,679 --> 00:52:54,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm I'm very I know that there is like

1112
00:52:54,559 --> 00:53:00,440
a certain I guess bias that comes when reviewing this game,

1113
00:53:00,519 --> 00:53:02,119
and like this game will speak to people or the

1114
00:53:02,119 --> 00:53:04,199
people that choose to review it are like, well, I

1115
00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:06,679
like the these previous games. I'm gonna go see what

1116
00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:10,159
the newest one is. I'm just constantly surprised that they

1117
00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:12,360
review fairly. Well, yeah, I really.

1118
00:53:12,199 --> 00:53:14,480
Speaker 5: Get away with it, like these games, the questions, These

1119
00:53:14,519 --> 00:53:17,719
games sell very well, and like you know, like every

1120
00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:19,639
once in a while they'll be the one that's so

1121
00:53:19,679 --> 00:53:21,639
bad that the reviews are bad. But as long as

1122
00:53:21,639 --> 00:53:25,679
they kind of do until the lines not, then yeah, right,

1123
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:28,000
like then you'll get a low eighties score on one

1124
00:53:28,039 --> 00:53:28,440
of these.

1125
00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:30,840
Speaker 2: And I don't know, I just cannot imagine being a

1126
00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,320
person that sees all that stuff and is not bothered

1127
00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:35,920
by how in your face it is with all that

1128
00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:38,280
and how constant it is. It's just I mean, even

1129
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:40,800
if the game was good, even if I love the

1130
00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:43,320
wrestling engine and the matches were fun and everything, I

1131
00:53:43,679 --> 00:53:45,320
would find it very hard to give it a good

1132
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,119
score because of all this shit it's wrapped in.

1133
00:53:47,679 --> 00:53:49,760
Speaker 5: But like, like even like the newer Madden games, like

1134
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,559
the average scores are like in the sixties a lot

1135
00:53:52,559 --> 00:53:54,400
of the time, right, So like, I guess, oh, the

1136
00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:56,599
last one was apparently much better, got seventy nine. Look

1137
00:53:56,639 --> 00:53:59,760
at that, So I don't know, back, are you gonna

1138
00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:01,079
say so yeah.

1139
00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:03,000
Speaker 1: Like what what what's really going on? Right?

1140
00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:07,679
Speaker 3: Is it that someone who puts up with their ship

1141
00:54:08,519 --> 00:54:11,639
as a product is like perfect for this ship that's

1142
00:54:11,679 --> 00:54:12,400
a video game?

1143
00:54:12,639 --> 00:54:16,280
Speaker 1: Is that what it is? Like? I don't, I don't

1144
00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:21,159
know stuff like yeah, like it's the worst, Like, isn't that?

1145
00:54:21,199 --> 00:54:24,239
Speaker 2: I mean I think they do kind of target a

1146
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:26,920
certain Like I went to that prece event at WWE HQ,

1147
00:54:27,239 --> 00:54:29,760
and it's like they were like having the different wrestlers

1148
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:31,440
come out and their theme song would play when they

1149
00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:33,280
came out, and like most of the other people there

1150
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:35,480
were like chanting along to the songs and stuff, and

1151
00:54:35,519 --> 00:54:37,159
they were doing like the Pento walk when pent was

1152
00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:39,760
like I hesitate to use this phrase, but kind of

1153
00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:41,519
mark shit, you know the ones that are just like

1154
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,639
on like ya, WWE the corporation. You know, It's like

1155
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:48,039
it's kind of surprised they keep inviting me because like

1156
00:54:48,079 --> 00:54:52,239
I have not liked these games pretty much ever, But yeah,

1157
00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:53,880
there are a lot of people there that just seem

1158
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:57,119
like they are inviting. It's like, what was it they

1159
00:54:57,119 --> 00:54:59,480
slop it up? It was like the remember there was

1160
00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:02,079
the whole deal like the Skyrim re release in like

1161
00:55:02,119 --> 00:55:03,760
the mid twenty tens and it was one of the

1162
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:05,960
first times. It's like, oh, but as I was sending

1163
00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:10,079
this out to enthusiast Skyrim YouTubers before they sent it

1164
00:55:10,119 --> 00:55:12,599
out to the igns and game spots and giant bombs

1165
00:55:12,639 --> 00:55:14,800
of the world, and it's like, yeah, I think that

1166
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:17,360
might be kind of what's going on here, you know, right.

1167
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:21,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, I believe that because reasonable people are like, this

1168
00:55:21,119 --> 00:55:24,519
is trash and that's it. That's all you need to know,

1169
00:55:24,639 --> 00:55:26,800
Like you send it to reasonable people.

1170
00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:29,360
Speaker 1: Dan, I think you mentioned like, wasn't there like a

1171
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:34,039
different section for the influencers that were there versus like press.

1172
00:55:34,239 --> 00:55:36,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was interesting because it's like you had the

1173
00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:38,840
content creator. Like if you go into WAHQ now, it's

1174
00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:41,719
like the lobby has like all these different floors that

1175
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,440
kind of like mezzanine type look over the lobby, and

1176
00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:46,599
so they set up all these gameplay stations on these

1177
00:55:46,599 --> 00:55:50,199
different floors, and like the first couple were all like

1178
00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:52,599
content creators, and so that's when like they're bringing out

1179
00:55:52,639 --> 00:55:55,039
Drew McIntyre and Oba Fami and Tristrattis and seeing punk

1180
00:55:55,079 --> 00:55:57,239
and stuff. They're having to sit down to the stations

1181
00:55:57,239 --> 00:55:59,119
and they can play with you and they're doing interviews

1182
00:55:59,119 --> 00:56:01,159
and stuff like that, and then like the top top

1183
00:56:01,199 --> 00:56:04,360
one they shoved like you know, me and and Roger

1184
00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:07,320
from kind of Funny and Marcus from Game Informer and stuff.

1185
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:09,320
We're just kind of like, oh, here's the old Krusty.

1186
00:56:09,679 --> 00:56:09,800
Speaker 1: Oh.

1187
00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:12,880
Speaker 2: They they write words and talk about, you know, things critically.

1188
00:56:13,199 --> 00:56:15,079
And again I don't mean to like there's a ton

1189
00:56:15,119 --> 00:56:17,400
of like great talented people like you know, yeah, you

1190
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:19,239
know it was in the content creator floor and stuff

1191
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:22,239
like that, but they definitely did kind of like shove

1192
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:25,239
the traditional press up in their own little corner.

1193
00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:30,360
Speaker 1: It's been interesting to see, uh this game more also, Dan,

1194
00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:34,760
because I think my social media algorithms are being influenced

1195
00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:37,760
by me playing it or just looking up gameplay clips

1196
00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:40,360
to see try and see people enjoying this game. And

1197
00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:43,159
I don't believe them. I don't believe that they're having

1198
00:56:43,199 --> 00:56:48,159
fun because like uh, you mentioned in the quick look

1199
00:56:48,159 --> 00:56:51,280
that like you know, John Blood and and his his

1200
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:53,800
homies will kind of like treat it like a match

1201
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:55,920
and set up spots. Yeah.

1202
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:57,760
Speaker 2: And I did have the realization when, like I was

1203
00:56:57,800 --> 00:57:00,239
on the new Legacy video where is Macho Tia Juhn

1204
00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:01,800
Blood and me, and we did a triple threat, and

1205
00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:03,480
it's like I was playing it like I would play

1206
00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:04,639
like a fighting game, where it's like I'm going in,

1207
00:57:04,639 --> 00:57:05,840
I'm trying to get my moves in, I'm trying to

1208
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:07,800
get a finisher and win the game. And then I

1209
00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:09,880
kind of realized as we were recording, it's like, oh, wait,

1210
00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:12,000
they're setting up spots and stuff and I'm just running

1211
00:57:12,039 --> 00:57:13,840
in trying to like win, and it's like, oh, Okay,

1212
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:15,400
maybe this is because like I don't really know like

1213
00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:18,760
wrestling YouTube like that scene at all. It's like, oh,

1214
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:21,000
I guess I could see why they're kind of making

1215
00:57:21,079 --> 00:57:23,039
it more of a show the way wrestling would be

1216
00:57:23,159 --> 00:57:25,159
rather than like a competition, you know. So it's like, Okay,

1217
00:57:25,199 --> 00:57:28,519
maybe I'm just not tracking what this is, you know.

1218
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:30,840
Speaker 1: But I feel like with John and then like New

1219
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:33,599
Legacy InCor are doing is very different than some of

1220
00:57:33,639 --> 00:57:35,960
these other content creators that I've come across, because like,

1221
00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:39,079
I honestly, God don't believe them when they're saying like, oh,

1222
00:57:39,119 --> 00:57:41,159
this is the best game ever, this is the best

1223
00:57:41,239 --> 00:57:44,719
version of this game. Look at these physics blah blah blah,

1224
00:57:44,719 --> 00:57:47,039
and like I think you're full of shit, I don't

1225
00:57:47,039 --> 00:57:48,920
think you know what a game is. There are a

1226
00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:51,199
lot of marks, a lot of marks men, a lot

1227
00:57:51,199 --> 00:57:51,679
of people.

1228
00:57:51,599 --> 00:57:54,320
Speaker 2: Still slopping up the w do stuff big time, and a.

1229
00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:56,159
Speaker 1: Lot of mark ass bitches.

1230
00:57:56,360 --> 00:57:59,639
Speaker 2: Yeah that's always been the case. That's why the business

1231
00:57:59,639 --> 00:58:01,559
of a rustling has gone on as long as it has.

1232
00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:03,880
But yeah, at times it's been better than it is now.

1233
00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:10,400
Speaker 1: Speaking about wrestling, it sounds like, you know, we've gone

1234
00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:13,400
through multiple rounds of wrestling games, but it sounds like

1235
00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:17,519
Dib is going through rounds.

1236
00:58:17,199 --> 00:58:19,920
Speaker 3: He's who I find out about all the coolest games

1237
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:23,400
from now what there's three of us here, Well, this

1238
00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:25,320
is an old game, so pick it for what.

1239
00:58:25,639 --> 00:58:26,400
Speaker 2: He's a retro guy.

1240
00:58:27,239 --> 00:58:31,639
Speaker 3: He's this huge retro guy loves what came out five

1241
00:58:31,719 --> 00:58:34,360
years ago, back in twenty twenty one, and that is

1242
00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:35,400
the game Rounds.

1243
00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:37,280
Speaker 1: Have you guys ever heard of round Not?

1244
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:39,239
Speaker 5: But now I'm looking at it and its like as

1245
00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:44,800
overwhelmingly positive reviews and looks like something we would enjoy playing.

1246
00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:48,239
It's it's basically the smiley face Ben with guns.

1247
00:58:48,639 --> 00:58:52,599
Speaker 3: It looks like Yeah, so it's it's like.

1248
00:58:52,559 --> 00:58:54,159
Speaker 1: A one v one.

1249
00:58:56,320 --> 00:59:01,480
Speaker 3: Like gun shooting battling where you play five. After each round,

1250
00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:06,440
the person who loses the round gets a card upgrade

1251
00:59:06,679 --> 00:59:10,920
gets a perk, so you know it imagine like the

1252
00:59:11,239 --> 00:59:14,719
way spider Heck is presented, where you're like a randomized

1253
00:59:14,760 --> 00:59:17,039
sort of level. Then it's one v one and then

1254
00:59:17,079 --> 00:59:19,639
the two of you go at it, and whoever dies

1255
00:59:19,719 --> 00:59:23,119
first is offered a pretty substantial perk because there's only

1256
00:59:23,119 --> 00:59:28,039
five rounds, so the stakes escalate super super quickly. It

1257
00:59:28,119 --> 00:59:32,400
is incredibly fun. You get you have a shield cool down,

1258
00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:36,559
and you have a bullet bullet capacity cool down, and

1259
00:59:36,599 --> 00:59:39,599
that's it. There's no other kind of like mechanic that

1260
00:59:39,639 --> 00:59:41,639
you really have to worry about. You get you can

1261
00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:43,960
you know, I've definitely like I guess that's like the

1262
00:59:44,039 --> 00:59:46,159
rogue part of it too, where you like you start

1263
00:59:46,199 --> 00:59:48,199
to realize, like, oh, if I go down this path

1264
00:59:48,239 --> 00:59:52,719
where like I make all my bullets poison and if

1265
00:59:52,760 --> 00:59:55,599
you make contact with one you know, shot, then the

1266
00:59:55,679 --> 00:59:59,320
other player takes damage over a certain period of time.

1267
00:59:59,639 --> 01:00:02,079
We we must have played this for three hours on

1268
01:00:02,679 --> 01:00:03,480
Sunday nights.

1269
01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:03,760
Speaker 1: Cool.

1270
01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:06,599
Speaker 3: It's really really a lot of fun. I can't believe

1271
01:00:06,639 --> 01:00:07,840
it completely missed.

1272
01:00:08,719 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 1: It missed me.

1273
01:00:09,679 --> 01:00:11,760
Speaker 3: He came home from her friend's house and was just like,

1274
01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:14,000
I don't know, I missed this. I'm like, well, you

1275
01:00:14,039 --> 01:00:17,559
were like two at the time. No, it's it's great.

1276
01:00:17,679 --> 01:00:19,880
It really is great. He obviously loves spider Hack. We

1277
01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:22,280
still play spider Hack a bunch. I think this is

1278
01:00:22,320 --> 01:00:25,000
even more accessible because spider Hack has like a certain

1279
01:00:25,079 --> 01:00:28,480
level of like, uh, there there is a bit of

1280
01:00:28,519 --> 01:00:31,480
like a skill barrier that you kind of have to

1281
01:00:31,519 --> 01:00:35,880
cross where getting into rounds is pretty much uh, you know,

1282
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:37,920
play and you're you and you're off to the races.

1283
01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:40,360
Speaker 5: Oh, this is this is a landfall. This is the

1284
01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:45,239
peak people. Oh oh is it part of well Agroc Yeah, yeah,

1285
01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:48,079
well that's the publisher. Anyways, I guess so you okay.

1286
01:00:48,199 --> 01:00:49,760
Speaker 2: This type of game is a great example of, like

1287
01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:52,039
you know, earlier we were talking about accessibility, like, oh,

1288
01:00:52,039 --> 01:00:53,599
if you had a friend over, you wouldn't put him

1289
01:00:53,599 --> 01:00:55,760
in front of two K twenty six because it's not accessible.

1290
01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:59,280
I think this type like TowerFall, Samurai Gun Ducky. Yeah,

1291
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:02,079
what I'm saying, these are ideal for like you don't

1292
01:01:02,079 --> 01:01:03,519
even really have to play games. A lot of these

1293
01:01:03,519 --> 01:01:06,079
games have one or two buttons and the simplest concept

1294
01:01:06,159 --> 01:01:08,719
you can explain like elevator pitch style, like that's it,

1295
01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:09,639
this is the best for that.

1296
01:01:10,280 --> 01:01:12,920
Speaker 3: He'd you know, and obviously like you know, I mean,

1297
01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:15,480
he picked it up super quick and he was fucking

1298
01:01:15,559 --> 01:01:17,519
destroying me the first couple of rounds and then I

1299
01:01:17,559 --> 01:01:20,880
kind of like figured out what was going on here.

1300
01:01:21,199 --> 01:01:24,079
But yeah, the variety of perks is really cool. Uh,

1301
01:01:24,119 --> 01:01:26,480
they're you know, they're randomized, so you know, you can

1302
01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:28,800
certainly like land on you know, some of like the

1303
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:31,000
op ones and you're like, oh, you're in trouble now.

1304
01:01:31,039 --> 01:01:33,559
But then they kind of like balance it pretty well

1305
01:01:33,679 --> 01:01:36,880
because when it's your your turn to pick a perk,

1306
01:01:37,599 --> 01:01:41,880
they kind of meet that level of ability sort of

1307
01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:44,679
in kind. So yeah, I think it's really cool. It's

1308
01:01:44,719 --> 01:01:47,519
super cheap, cool. Go check it out if you're looking

1309
01:01:47,559 --> 01:01:52,880
for like the local Yeah, local local co op, couch

1310
01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:54,000
co op, super fun.

1311
01:01:54,039 --> 01:01:55,880
Speaker 1: I don't know if you could play it online. I

1312
01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:57,199
gotta imagine, what do you can.

1313
01:01:57,119 --> 01:01:59,199
Speaker 5: What do you think co op means? It looks like

1314
01:01:59,519 --> 01:02:01,000
very cop.

1315
01:02:01,039 --> 01:02:04,039
Speaker 2: An one forget everyone what the co op means? Everyone

1316
01:02:04,039 --> 01:02:06,880
says couch anytime. It's a competitive game. Now it's driven

1317
01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:09,320
me in saying for like a decade. It's Cooper. We're

1318
01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:10,559
working together as a team.

1319
01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:14,599
Speaker 3: It's totally so, I mean, so what do you call this?

1320
01:02:14,679 --> 01:02:15,840
So what's a better word?

1321
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:19,199
Speaker 2: Because we multi it's a multi competitive multiplayer.

1322
01:02:19,239 --> 01:02:22,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's but but the couch because couches and.

1323
01:02:22,599 --> 01:02:24,920
Speaker 2: Local multiplayer, that's what local local?

1324
01:02:25,199 --> 01:02:29,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's local one one on one. Watch. Look now

1325
01:02:29,719 --> 01:02:33,480
that's terrible call it that. Yeah, local a local one

1326
01:02:33,599 --> 01:02:34,599
v one right.

1327
01:02:35,199 --> 01:02:39,920
Speaker 2: Local Smash Brothers four player? You know call these video games?

1328
01:02:40,159 --> 01:02:45,440
Speaker 1: Yeah? Video Yeah. I was Actually it's funny you say that, Mike,

1329
01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:47,800
because I was going to ask Backlar has did checked

1330
01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:50,199
out any of the Smash Brothers games, Because based off

1331
01:02:50,239 --> 01:02:53,960
of the things he's shown interest in, I can maybe

1332
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:58,760
see a pipeline or he gets in the Smash I

1333
01:02:59,079 --> 01:03:01,840
could see him in joying it. I don't think he's

1334
01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:07,360
like as Nintendo coded as the world wants him to be. Well,

1335
01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:10,159
you don't have to be to play Smash. Those are

1336
01:03:10,199 --> 01:03:13,519
like fighting game people, no, like all kinds of random

1337
01:03:13,559 --> 01:03:15,320
assholes find their way in that game. I get it.

1338
01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:19,440
But yeah, he's never had hands on it. I'm not

1339
01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:22,960
a big Smash guy. Uh so you know, he he'd

1340
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:26,719
have to be exposed to it through outside forces.

1341
01:03:26,840 --> 01:03:28,920
Speaker 3: But uh yeah, I don't. I don't think I think

1342
01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:29,719
it's worth a shot.

1343
01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:32,239
Speaker 5: It's gonna be interesting when the next Smash Bros. Comes out,

1344
01:03:32,239 --> 01:03:35,639
because I don't know. I'm a I'm a big Smash guy.

1345
01:03:36,159 --> 01:03:38,199
So I feel like it's gonna be a surprising amount

1346
01:03:38,199 --> 01:03:40,239
of Smash coverage on here and people aren't gonna be

1347
01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:41,719
right for it. I gotta figure out what that's gonna

1348
01:03:41,719 --> 01:03:44,000
look like. I want to.

1349
01:03:44,039 --> 01:03:48,519
Speaker 1: I want to. I want to show people what's up Smash. Yeah,

1350
01:03:48,599 --> 01:03:50,480
coming soon, Smash.

1351
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:52,639
Speaker 2: You can play without items on. It's fucked up.

1352
01:03:52,719 --> 01:03:55,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's crazy, right, it's more fun it turns out.

1353
01:03:55,559 --> 01:04:01,840
Speaker 3: Nope, but yes, uh most not a couch co op,

1354
01:04:02,079 --> 01:04:06,760
but more a couch cooperative, No kidding, a couch one

1355
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:08,719
v one, which is fun.

1356
01:04:08,760 --> 01:04:11,039
Speaker 1: It's it's really it's really a good time. And how

1357
01:04:11,079 --> 01:04:13,039
long did y'all play together? It was just like what

1358
01:04:13,199 --> 01:04:16,519
like three hours? Three hours? Sounds like a little bit

1359
01:04:16,519 --> 01:04:20,280
of a marathon, just like we have checked out marathon

1360
01:04:20,400 --> 01:04:23,199
on the website. I check out upf Last week, Dan

1361
01:04:23,599 --> 01:04:27,639
Grubb and Mikey played marathon boys. I want to hear

1362
01:04:27,639 --> 01:04:28,920
your thoughts.

1363
01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:33,320
Speaker 2: I like the moment to moment, I think, you know,

1364
01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:35,920
this shouldn't surprise anyone that Bungee is incredibly good at

1365
01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:39,000
doing gunplay and the guns look awesome, they feel awesome.

1366
01:04:39,079 --> 01:04:42,199
Like when I have either AI or other players that

1367
01:04:42,239 --> 01:04:45,079
I'm shooting at, I think it's really awesome. I definitely

1368
01:04:45,119 --> 01:04:49,440
had to fight through my initial just like there were

1369
01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:50,760
a few times I was ready to, like, as it

1370
01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:52,480
was explaining a million just weird things to me, I

1371
01:04:52,480 --> 01:04:54,400
was just like ready to put it away and be like,

1372
01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:57,159
why is everything so fucking complicated now? Like what happened to? Like,

1373
01:04:57,199 --> 01:04:58,679
there was definitely that part of me that's like what

1374
01:04:58,760 --> 01:04:59,119
happened to?

1375
01:04:59,599 --> 01:04:59,679
Speaker 3: You?

1376
01:04:59,719 --> 01:05:02,400
Speaker 2: Gotta campaign? You got some takes on deathmatch and maybe

1377
01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:04,559
some objective modes, you know, the classic like Halo Call

1378
01:05:04,559 --> 01:05:06,400
of Duty thing, And it just got me thinking a

1379
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:10,480
lot about like is it because extraction shooters and that

1380
01:05:10,559 --> 01:05:14,039
type of gameplay is what people prefer now? Or is

1381
01:05:14,079 --> 01:05:17,960
it because those are easier to monetize on like a

1382
01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:18,400
long time.

1383
01:05:18,639 --> 01:05:20,320
Speaker 5: I mean maybe a bit of Call, make bit of

1384
01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:22,760
Call and b but like you know, like Arc Raiders

1385
01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:24,639
is huge. There are definitely a lot of people who

1386
01:05:25,239 --> 01:05:29,440
something about this loop is super engaging to them, right,

1387
01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:32,960
And it's like the risk of it all. I wonder

1388
01:05:32,960 --> 01:05:35,800
if it's a little bit like you know, or things

1389
01:05:35,840 --> 01:05:39,159
became so forgiving and a little bit simplified that the

1390
01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:41,360
idea of that a world is actually punishing you and

1391
01:05:41,360 --> 01:05:44,519
pushing back a lot. It's like it's like the dark

1392
01:05:44,599 --> 01:05:48,000
Souls of multiplayer shooters right right, Like we're getting things

1393
01:05:48,119 --> 01:05:50,840
kind of easy there for a bit, and now it's like, oh,

1394
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:53,440
I feel like there's actually consequences if I lose. Then

1395
01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:55,360
that makes me feel something again.

1396
01:05:55,760 --> 01:05:58,400
Speaker 2: But i'd like you say, the dark Souls and multiplayer shooters, Yeah,

1397
01:05:58,440 --> 01:06:00,119
but give that to you know, like kind of like

1398
01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:02,800
that like campaign, you know, like I can't help I

1399
01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:04,880
think like this world and this art design and just

1400
01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:07,880
the this game are all top not, but I want

1401
01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:09,440
to play a fucking campaign.

1402
01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:13,199
Speaker 5: So I would up, Yeah, I agree with you, Like

1403
01:06:13,199 --> 01:06:15,760
I think it feels really good. And like my biggest

1404
01:06:15,800 --> 01:06:18,000
thing with the game is I don't know how much

1405
01:06:18,039 --> 01:06:21,000
I like extraction shooters. I don't know how much I

1406
01:06:21,119 --> 01:06:24,480
like the whole what am I doing in between matches

1407
01:06:24,559 --> 01:06:25,880
kind of thing? I don't know if the whole like

1408
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:29,800
sell my surplus and you know, fiddle with my load

1409
01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:33,400
out kind of thing is necessarily anything that's doing a

1410
01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:35,880
lot for me, I'd rather just kind of get in,

1411
01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:37,639
like to the point where at first it's like, oh,

1412
01:06:37,679 --> 01:06:40,960
here's like the basic show or the basic load out

1413
01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:42,760
you can put in. I'm like, I'll do that. Then

1414
01:06:42,760 --> 01:06:44,920
it's clear if you do that, you're so weak you

1415
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:47,159
basically have no chanceling. All right, I guess I better

1416
01:06:47,639 --> 01:06:50,519
really think about equipping this stuff. And then you're sort

1417
01:06:50,559 --> 01:06:52,320
of because of that, you kind of play the game

1418
01:06:52,719 --> 01:06:56,679
super cautiously, and that's I think part of the charm there.

1419
01:06:56,920 --> 01:06:58,519
But you know, it's it is one of these games,

1420
01:06:58,519 --> 01:07:00,559
this open war, A thing can happen. So yeah, sometimes

1421
01:07:00,559 --> 01:07:03,119
you are just going to get unlucky. You're gonna be

1422
01:07:03,119 --> 01:07:05,880
fighting one person. Another person's gonna come up and take

1423
01:07:05,920 --> 01:07:08,000
advantage of that and then shoot you. Now, it also

1424
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:10,960
makes for these amazing moments, right where two people are

1425
01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:13,239
fighting for an extraction zone and I'm the character who

1426
01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:15,800
can turn invisible, so I just wait for the last second,

1427
01:07:16,079 --> 01:07:19,320
pop my visibility, shoot some fog grenades, and just sneak

1428
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:22,519
into the extraction and get out there. So it makes

1429
01:07:22,559 --> 01:07:25,119
for these big moments, and again I think that's another

1430
01:07:25,119 --> 01:07:27,880
reason why this game is so popular with people. It's

1431
01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:30,079
so popular with streamers and that kind of thing.

1432
01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:32,480
Speaker 2: I think the thing that's failed to get me a

1433
01:07:32,679 --> 01:07:34,840
long term into things like Art Graders and Marathon just

1434
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:38,960
fight liking the gameplay is that, like for a game

1435
01:07:39,360 --> 01:07:42,159
for a genre that's supposed to be about like getting

1436
01:07:42,199 --> 01:07:44,679
this valuable stuff and extracting with it. I feel like,

1437
01:07:44,679 --> 01:07:46,320
at least with both of these, which now are the

1438
01:07:46,360 --> 01:07:49,199
two extraction shooters I've played, I always get back to

1439
01:07:49,239 --> 01:07:50,800
the menus and I'm like, all right, I got a

1440
01:07:50,800 --> 01:07:53,400
bunch of fucking I don't know. I got some AMMO

1441
01:07:53,719 --> 01:07:57,000
and some metal bullshit, some containers like I don't like.

1442
01:07:57,119 --> 01:07:59,039
It's never like I find something in the mission where

1443
01:07:59,039 --> 01:08:00,400
I'm like, oh my god, I got to get this out.

1444
01:08:00,440 --> 01:08:02,559
This is so valuable and so exciting. Yeah, they never

1445
01:08:02,599 --> 01:08:04,480
have that feeling. It's just like it's a bunch of

1446
01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:06,880
shit that I'm gonna have to like do inventory management

1447
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:08,039
of when I get back, you.

1448
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:11,599
Speaker 5: Know, because you almost can't find anything too exciting because

1449
01:08:11,599 --> 01:08:14,960
then you then you would have some giant advantage in

1450
01:08:15,039 --> 01:08:18,279
the world with the other players. Right, So the loop

1451
01:08:18,399 --> 01:08:21,880
is more about finding you know three coils because the

1452
01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:24,680
current mission tells you too. And then there's the permanent

1453
01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:26,720
character progression, and that's what people I think, really get

1454
01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:28,079
stuck into. It is like, oh, I gotta like get

1455
01:08:28,119 --> 01:08:31,720
through all these little factions. And they do so much

1456
01:08:31,920 --> 01:08:34,800
of the production and set dressing to make that stuff cool.

1457
01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:37,359
Like each time you unlock a new faction, there's this weird,

1458
01:08:37,760 --> 01:08:41,239
horrifying like future hell commercial.

1459
01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:44,199
Speaker 2: For the commercial of like painting these like Neon plans.

1460
01:08:45,279 --> 01:08:47,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's super slick, like like the world building

1461
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:51,439
is is awesome, but it's also like not enough where again,

1462
01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:54,319
I'm playing this game where I'm trying to get multiplayer matches.

1463
01:08:54,359 --> 01:08:56,479
Then a robot wants to talk to me for two

1464
01:08:56,560 --> 01:08:58,840
minutes and I'm like, I'm not listening.

1465
01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:01,960
Speaker 1: Do you do yod? How does it work if you

1466
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:03,920
just want to go in solo dolo? Can you just

1467
01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:04,960
drop in? Yeah?

1468
01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:07,279
Speaker 2: I tried that the other this weekend. I was like,

1469
01:09:07,279 --> 01:09:08,960
I'm going to try the Rook thing, because the Rook

1470
01:09:09,039 --> 01:09:11,000
was the class that I understood was like, Okay, you

1471
01:09:11,039 --> 01:09:12,399
just kind of go in with a pre built thing.

1472
01:09:12,439 --> 01:09:14,600
It's solo blah blah blah. You're not gonna level up

1473
01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:16,720
much or whatever. But it's it kept saying like you

1474
01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:19,680
got too much shit in your inventory, and this is

1475
01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:22,239
or not like there might be a button or something

1476
01:09:22,359 --> 01:09:24,079
where it's just like I just unload all my shit

1477
01:09:24,159 --> 01:09:25,720
into my vault. I just want to be a rook,

1478
01:09:25,760 --> 01:09:27,119
like you would think when you pick the rook, it's

1479
01:09:27,119 --> 01:09:28,720
like do you want to throw all your shit out

1480
01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:30,720
into your backpack or into your vault or whatever. And

1481
01:09:30,760 --> 01:09:32,119
I couldn't do it, And so I was trying to

1482
01:09:32,159 --> 01:09:34,560
individually take all the shit out of my backpack, but

1483
01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:36,279
I didn't have room in my vault, and so then

1484
01:09:36,279 --> 01:09:37,880
I have to like decide what stuff to sell. And

1485
01:09:37,920 --> 01:09:39,479
it's like I wound up not even being able to

1486
01:09:39,479 --> 01:09:41,199
play as the rook because it's like I just have

1487
01:09:41,239 --> 01:09:42,680
too much shit and there's not a way to like

1488
01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:46,880
offload it. Basically, that'said I do like the Faction stuff.

1489
01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:48,720
I do like that there is something that like, even

1490
01:09:48,800 --> 01:09:51,720
if it reminds me of like Fortnite quests, where it's like, look,

1491
01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:53,760
you're not going to win first place for your royale

1492
01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:55,800
every time, but there's all these quests that are getting

1493
01:09:55,800 --> 01:09:57,439
you XP and stuff, and it's like, oh, okay, I

1494
01:09:57,560 --> 01:09:59,560
rode in three cars or whatever, and I got some

1495
01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:02,680
thing for my battle pass. The faction stuff in the

1496
01:10:02,680 --> 01:10:05,000
contracts are that way where it's like, Okay, download something

1497
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:06,760
from here and then do this in the same run.

1498
01:10:06,960 --> 01:10:08,840
So you have these objectives that are more than just

1499
01:10:08,960 --> 01:10:11,720
get shit and get out. So I do like that

1500
01:10:11,760 --> 01:10:14,640
because I don't remember that as much in our graders,

1501
01:10:14,680 --> 01:10:14,920
you know.

1502
01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:19,000
Speaker 1: Backlart, you would be so jazzed with this game because

1503
01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:21,720
of the sheer volume of fonts everywhere.

1504
01:10:21,960 --> 01:10:23,920
Speaker 2: Oh good fonts of very.

1505
01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:27,119
Speaker 1: Good fonts, Like yeah, should I fire this up? Watching

1506
01:10:27,199 --> 01:10:31,079
these boys play, I was entertained merely looking at the UI.

1507
01:10:32,239 --> 01:10:34,960
That's all right. Sometimes that's enough to like get me

1508
01:10:35,239 --> 01:10:38,079
interested for a couple hours. Like I don't know what

1509
01:10:38,119 --> 01:10:40,319
type of design it is, but like some of the

1510
01:10:40,319 --> 01:10:43,880
guns just have like a gigantic like little mini LCD,

1511
01:10:44,239 --> 01:10:47,039
not LCD, but like a flat screen on it just

1512
01:10:47,039 --> 01:10:49,840
showing all your AMMO stuff, and like the little PDA

1513
01:10:49,960 --> 01:10:52,119
that pops up when you're resing someone, and it's just

1514
01:10:52,199 --> 01:10:55,600
like the little crude outline is like, oh that's cool.

1515
01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:58,560
Speaker 2: That bleeplop remote stuff, the pop up yeah on the

1516
01:10:58,680 --> 01:10:59,359
XVILL and all that.

1517
01:10:59,560 --> 01:11:04,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love a good bleep bloop remote. This game

1518
01:11:04,079 --> 01:11:05,319
is popular, turns out.

1519
01:11:05,239 --> 01:11:09,239
Speaker 5: Huh maybe, like it's it's it's.

1520
01:11:09,039 --> 01:11:09,680
Speaker 1: Hard to tell.

1521
01:11:09,960 --> 01:11:14,000
Speaker 5: Like, right now the concurrence is thirty seven thousand, which

1522
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:16,279
is a lot bits Earlier in the day, it like

1523
01:11:16,359 --> 01:11:19,159
it was peaking at seventy five thousand. It seems like

1524
01:11:19,199 --> 01:11:22,319
that peak goes down maybe a little beach day. It's

1525
01:11:22,359 --> 01:11:25,680
hard to say, Like those seem like good enough numbers

1526
01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:29,760
to me. Is it good enough for Sony and bungeee?

1527
01:11:30,039 --> 01:11:34,359
You know, arc Breaders for example, still peaks more, you know,

1528
01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:36,880
like like twice as much as that maybe or even

1529
01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:39,359
a bit more than that at the moment. So it's

1530
01:11:39,479 --> 01:11:42,199
I don't know, it's so impossible to tell what the metrics.

1531
01:11:41,760 --> 01:11:45,720
Speaker 1: For those are as far steam numbers just steams to PlayStation.

1532
01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:49,079
Speaker 5: Yeah, also thing here, you think that would probably be

1533
01:11:49,079 --> 01:11:51,720
pretty well for a game published by PlayStation, right.

1534
01:11:52,079 --> 01:11:53,880
Speaker 2: I was curious. I'd never really looked at the steam

1535
01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:56,760
dB concurrence before, and I did when I was curious

1536
01:11:56,800 --> 01:11:59,279
if Marathon was doing well. And I'm looking at like,

1537
01:11:59,520 --> 01:12:02,239
nothing will make me feel older than looking at the

1538
01:12:02,279 --> 01:12:05,720
steam dB concurrence because it is just a laundry list

1539
01:12:06,279 --> 01:12:09,600
of games. I it's just like what is Bongo Cat?

1540
01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:12,079
What is you know? Like all these games, like it's

1541
01:12:12,079 --> 01:12:17,600
all like super multiplayer stuff, Geometry, Dash, war Thunder, Like

1542
01:12:18,159 --> 01:12:20,159
I know I said a million times before, like counter Strike.

1543
01:12:20,239 --> 01:12:22,279
I don't know a single person that plays counter Strike.

1544
01:12:22,319 --> 01:12:24,359
It is the number one most played game on Steam

1545
01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:28,000
by an order of magnitude here, like who are these people?

1546
01:12:28,880 --> 01:12:30,880
Is it just a world of game gamers like outside

1547
01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:33,920
of our usual audience personal tastes.

1548
01:12:33,640 --> 01:12:38,079
Speaker 1: And yeah, but like your like counter Strike is huge

1549
01:12:38,359 --> 01:12:40,800
in Asia, it's huge in Europe.

1550
01:12:41,159 --> 01:12:42,960
Speaker 5: Part of it is that for sure. Part of it

1551
01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:45,399
is just like not in our circle. Part of it

1552
01:12:45,479 --> 01:12:47,159
is not in our country.

1553
01:12:47,359 --> 01:12:49,239
Speaker 2: Even Delta.

1554
01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:51,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, people still playing Rest.

1555
01:12:51,800 --> 01:12:54,760
Speaker 2: That's daisy hardest for all the stars.

1556
01:12:55,039 --> 01:12:58,000
Speaker 3: This is like when my father in law discovered people

1557
01:12:58,079 --> 01:13:03,159
like yogurt similar energy and it's like you put you

1558
01:13:03,159 --> 01:13:05,000
can put granola and it's delicious.

1559
01:13:05,039 --> 01:13:09,359
Speaker 2: Like yeah, yeah, the games are so fucking big now

1560
01:13:09,439 --> 01:13:11,680
that like I don't know, I've this has been my

1561
01:13:11,840 --> 01:13:13,960
entire life is games and careers and stuffing. Like there's

1562
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:16,359
just a whole world of games out there that is

1563
01:13:16,439 --> 01:13:19,000
just like massively popular, and I don't know a single

1564
01:13:19,039 --> 01:13:20,279
person who's ever played any of them.

1565
01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:22,920
Speaker 1: And the thing Dan is the you know, these are

1566
01:13:22,960 --> 01:13:25,760
games that probably and most likely don't appeal to most

1567
01:13:25,760 --> 01:13:28,239
of us. But that's also just Steam. Like there's a

1568
01:13:28,279 --> 01:13:30,960
whole mobile audience out there that are playing like, yeah,

1569
01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:37,479
not even gotcha games, just random RPG bull crap or

1570
01:13:37,520 --> 01:13:41,039
Match three stuff. Yeah, it's wilds are big now it

1571
01:13:41,079 --> 01:13:45,079
turns out pac Man. Yeah.

1572
01:13:45,319 --> 01:13:49,960
Speaker 3: Remember don't you remember during the charity stream, Uh, Dylan

1573
01:13:50,279 --> 01:13:56,279
wanted to challenge you to geometry Dash. No, well that

1574
01:13:56,479 --> 01:14:00,000
was the note he sent during the donation, and geometry

1575
01:14:00,199 --> 01:14:02,039
Dash is very popular.

1576
01:14:01,680 --> 01:14:05,479
Speaker 1: With people his age. Like a subway surfers.

1577
01:14:06,520 --> 01:14:09,720
Speaker 3: No, it's like a like an auto It's like an

1578
01:14:09,760 --> 01:14:13,960
auto run jumper thing. Okay, yeah, it's it's really hard.

1579
01:14:14,159 --> 01:14:15,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay.

1580
01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:20,039
Speaker 2: Project Zomboid, rim World, Limbus Company project.

1581
01:14:21,560 --> 01:14:26,119
Speaker 1: I think Project Zomboid I've heard before. Anyway, folks, Balder's

1582
01:14:26,199 --> 01:14:30,479
game three is no one knows what that is. Uh, Folks,

1583
01:14:30,520 --> 01:14:32,479
that about does it for video game talk. I would

1584
01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:35,800
like to watch you guys play some more Marathon because

1585
01:14:35,800 --> 01:14:39,520
apparently there's like, uh, drones have become very popular in

1586
01:14:39,560 --> 01:14:42,720
the game. It was like a big puzzle.

1587
01:14:42,640 --> 01:14:44,880
Speaker 2: I got filled in with a random I tried one

1588
01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:48,000
random filled crew thing and I had a little drone

1589
01:14:48,039 --> 01:14:50,600
guy chased me around and my dudes had drones too,

1590
01:14:50,600 --> 01:14:52,399
and I had no idea what that was about.

1591
01:14:52,720 --> 01:14:55,319
Speaker 1: I love I love it. Also, I'm just very glad

1592
01:14:55,319 --> 01:14:59,159
that this game is having even a little bit of success,

1593
01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:01,720
because it felt like it took forever to come out,

1594
01:15:01,800 --> 01:15:04,680
and it just felt like different I don't want to

1595
01:15:04,720 --> 01:15:07,359
say controversy, but like different thing to like misalign the

1596
01:15:07,399 --> 01:15:10,359
game after a different thing. And I'm happy that people

1597
01:15:10,399 --> 01:15:13,520
are liking it, happy that it's as popular as it is,

1598
01:15:13,960 --> 01:15:16,479
and I'm happy to take a quick breaking break and

1599
01:15:16,520 --> 01:15:17,399

01:17:28,239 --> 01:17:30,479
you look at that it's left.

1637
01:17:30,600 --> 01:17:36,640
Speaker 1: Grub always goes news news, Yeah, sound.

1638
01:17:37,359 --> 01:17:42,680
Speaker 5: News starting with Donald Glover is the voice of Yoshi

1639
01:17:42,720 --> 01:17:44,840
of the Super Mario Guest movie.

1640
01:17:45,279 --> 01:17:51,199
Speaker 2: I'm a lor y'all don't know, no, no, is it

1641
01:17:51,239 --> 01:17:53,000
just saying Donald Glover?

1642
01:17:53,119 --> 01:17:54,199
Speaker 1: Well that's that's the question.

1643
01:17:54,319 --> 01:17:57,279
Speaker 5: So okay, So this there was a Mario movie direct

1644
01:17:57,359 --> 01:18:00,520
yesterday where basically they just showed the final trailer for

1645
01:18:00,520 --> 01:18:03,039
this film that's coming out very soon, coming on April first,

1646
01:18:03,119 --> 01:18:08,319
and they're like, yeah, Yoshi's voiced by Donald Glover, and

1647
01:18:09,159 --> 01:18:11,359
I'm curious if that means this is like a grout

1648
01:18:11,479 --> 01:18:15,760
situation Vin Diesel just as rude a lot, or is

1649
01:18:15,800 --> 01:18:18,920
there going to be a sequence where, like, you know,

1650
01:18:19,520 --> 01:18:21,720
Yoshi could talk. We know there's a sequence with like

1651
01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:25,439
baby Mario baby Yoshi, So maybe a part where they

1652
01:18:25,520 --> 01:18:27,560
understand him, or maybe it's a part where Yoshi's with

1653
01:18:27,640 --> 01:18:30,199
other Yoshi's and only then they can talk.

1654
01:18:30,479 --> 01:18:33,239
Speaker 2: I don't know yo saying sentences.

1655
01:18:34,159 --> 01:18:36,439
Speaker 3: That would be cool though, Yeah, that would make me

1656
01:18:36,479 --> 01:18:40,119
care about this movie more. Was just like verbos if

1657
01:18:40,119 --> 01:18:41,760
he was just yeah, he was just like, hey, how

1658
01:18:41,760 --> 01:18:41,960
are you?

1659
01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:42,880
Speaker 1: My name is Yoshi? Wow?

1660
01:18:42,880 --> 01:18:45,039
Speaker 2: It was this sound like Donald Glover's voice.

1661
01:18:45,159 --> 01:18:46,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, that'd be sick, huh.

1662
01:18:46,279 --> 01:18:47,680
Speaker 5: I know what else might make you care about this

1663
01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:50,520
movie is that this trailer also gave us a look

1664
01:18:50,560 --> 01:18:55,319
at Wart, the antagonist from Super Mario Brothers too.

1665
01:18:55,479 --> 01:18:57,560
Speaker 1: And you will never guess who the actor is.

1666
01:18:57,920 --> 01:19:01,720
Speaker 2: Let me guess. I guess Wart would be John c Riley.

1667
01:19:02,399 --> 01:19:06,800
Speaker 1: Luis Guzman. Oh, that's very good.

1668
01:19:08,640 --> 01:19:10,920
Speaker 2: Does he look like Ward from like Mario to Wart?

1669
01:19:11,439 --> 01:19:13,159
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, you get.

1670
01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:16,199
Speaker 5: I think he's like running as like like.

1671
01:19:16,239 --> 01:19:17,399
Speaker 1: It seems like there's a whole.

1672
01:19:17,239 --> 01:19:20,760
Speaker 5: Part where they are just in a Super Mario two

1673
01:19:20,920 --> 01:19:23,079
themed area, and I think that's where Burdo is, and

1674
01:19:23,119 --> 01:19:24,079
then nin g So.

1675
01:19:27,039 --> 01:19:28,800
Speaker 2: Posers on the poster, right.

1676
01:19:28,920 --> 01:19:30,800
Speaker 5: I mean, that's that's the thing with this movie. It

1677
01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:33,359
is the Mario Galaxy movie, but it's also kind of

1678
01:19:33,399 --> 01:19:40,199
the Mario Galaxy Odyssey World two movie.

1679
01:19:40,359 --> 01:19:41,640
Speaker 1: There seems to be no restraint.

1680
01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:45,159
Speaker 5: It's just all in here because tons of new characters.

1681
01:19:45,199 --> 01:19:49,239
We know, Rosaline is there, Bowser Junior. It is probably

1682
01:19:49,239 --> 01:19:52,880
the equation so much so that like I no longer

1683
01:19:52,960 --> 01:19:56,279
believe maybe they are gonna go that crazy. I don't

1684
01:19:56,279 --> 01:19:58,920
think we're seeing Warrio and Wa Luigi unless it's a

1685
01:19:58,960 --> 01:19:59,600
post credits.

1686
01:19:59,640 --> 01:19:59,880
Speaker 1: I think it.

1687
01:20:00,039 --> 01:20:02,399
Speaker 5: I can see that there's just too much. There's too

1688
01:20:02,439 --> 01:20:03,319
much already here.

1689
01:20:03,359 --> 01:20:05,680
Speaker 2: I think there's it's about time we start introducing more

1690
01:20:05,760 --> 01:20:08,239
Mario two stuff into the overall, Like you know, we

1691
01:20:08,359 --> 01:20:10,159
just start having them in Mario cardmore. We already have

1692
01:20:10,199 --> 01:20:13,760
shy guys, we have Pokey's, but like war Buser being

1693
01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:16,159
in the movies, I want to see Mauser fry guy

1694
01:20:16,359 --> 01:20:18,279
all those day there was a good lineup of bad

1695
01:20:18,319 --> 01:20:20,800
guys we don't really see anymore from too cares.

1696
01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:22,560
Speaker 5: About War because we have not seen Warp much, so

1697
01:20:22,720 --> 01:20:24,680
that that one is actually kind of that's the one

1698
01:20:24,680 --> 01:20:26,760
that is surprising and need to meet to see Wart.

1699
01:20:27,039 --> 01:20:29,079
So I would I would like to see Wart in

1700
01:20:29,199 --> 01:20:32,479
games again, like yeah, throw throw him and Smash Brothers

1701
01:20:32,479 --> 01:20:33,439
and Mario Carter.

1702
01:20:33,319 --> 01:20:34,319
Speaker 1: I forgot about him.

1703
01:20:35,840 --> 01:20:38,560
Speaker 5: Make him the villain of the next Mario game, even

1704
01:20:38,640 --> 01:20:41,359
like the playable in it as a an.

1705
01:20:41,279 --> 01:20:44,600
Speaker 2: Ally Bouser's inside story and everyone's teaming up against Wart.

1706
01:20:45,199 --> 01:20:47,479
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1707
01:20:45,560 --> 01:20:51,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, so this movie coming out very soon probably make

1708
01:20:51,159 --> 01:20:52,399
a zillion dollars.

1709
01:20:53,159 --> 01:20:59,000
Speaker 3: Yeah April oh shit, Okay, yeah, Like I guess I'll

1710
01:20:59,039 --> 01:21:01,520
see it if did one wants to see it? I

1711
01:21:01,560 --> 01:21:04,720
don't know what his temperature is on it. I feel

1712
01:21:04,720 --> 01:21:06,880
like he he'll like, I don't think he's like a

1713
01:21:06,960 --> 01:21:09,560
day one, like Daddy take me to see this. I

1714
01:21:09,560 --> 01:21:12,680
think he's sort of just like if he sees it,

1715
01:21:12,720 --> 01:21:15,079
he sees it. I'm sure it will make a ga

1716
01:21:15,159 --> 01:21:15,880
jillion dollars.

1717
01:21:16,079 --> 01:21:19,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but yeah, I don't know.

1718
01:21:19,960 --> 01:21:22,439
Speaker 3: I feel I guess I alluded to this in the

1719
01:21:22,439 --> 01:21:25,359
first segment, but I do think like Nintendo is losing

1720
01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:33,840
his interest. Yeah, yeah, right, It's famously not for kids,

1721
01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:37,000
so I guess that track he could.

1722
01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:40,039
Speaker 1: Just for the old yeah, millennials.

1723
01:21:40,159 --> 01:21:41,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, he could.

1724
01:21:41,600 --> 01:21:43,600
Speaker 1: Just be aging out of it or whatever, and then

1725
01:21:43,640 --> 01:21:44,880
something he circles back to.

1726
01:21:45,800 --> 01:21:48,279
Speaker 5: He'll have a kind of period time there and like yeah,

1727
01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:50,079
around that twelve age.

1728
01:21:50,119 --> 01:21:52,560
Speaker 2: Oh that's why I couldn't play Pokemon because I was

1729
01:21:52,600 --> 01:21:54,319
too cool and had to play metal your solid. He's

1730
01:21:54,359 --> 01:21:56,560
in that phase. Okay, yeah, okay.

1731
01:21:56,640 --> 01:21:59,279
Speaker 3: I still think he would take a new Sonic over

1732
01:21:59,439 --> 01:22:01,079
a new Man's.

1733
01:22:01,640 --> 01:22:02,840
Speaker 2: That's that's real fun.

1734
01:22:03,000 --> 01:22:05,199
Speaker 5: I'm a big Sonic defender. That's disgusting. You need to

1735
01:22:05,239 --> 01:22:09,279
talk to him for the movies different That's fine.

1736
01:22:09,319 --> 01:22:10,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm talking about the movie.

1737
01:22:10,720 --> 01:22:13,720
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Dibb has never played a Sonic game, of course,

1738
01:22:15,039 --> 01:22:15,560
come on.

1739
01:22:15,520 --> 01:22:16,600
Speaker 2: That's crazy.

1740
01:22:17,000 --> 01:22:18,319
Speaker 1: I guess that would not care.

1741
01:22:18,479 --> 01:22:19,880
Speaker 2: There are a lot of kids that like the Sonic

1742
01:22:19,920 --> 01:22:21,600
movies and see him as a movie character and haven't

1743
01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:22,279
played the games.

1744
01:22:22,560 --> 01:22:25,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, we've had this conversation a few times. But yes,

1745
01:22:26,399 --> 01:22:30,760
technology is has he ever seen targeted his wife? He's

1746
01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:34,439
definitely Z targeted for sure, But like he A doesn't

1747
01:22:34,479 --> 01:22:37,319
think it's novel or interesting, and B is not like

1748
01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:39,159
actively searching it out.

1749
01:22:39,399 --> 01:22:41,800
Speaker 1: I think and all all kidding aside, I really do

1750
01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:45,359
think like for people his age, I do think like

1751
01:22:46,279 --> 01:22:48,920
Sonic is like got more riz like I think they

1752
01:22:49,399 --> 01:22:53,279
I think they mean that's why they made Yeah, people

1753
01:22:53,479 --> 01:22:54,640
Sonics cool.

1754
01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:57,159
Speaker 3: Mario is kind of like the is kind of for

1755
01:22:57,239 --> 01:22:58,439
like little baby idiots.

1756
01:22:58,520 --> 01:23:00,640
Speaker 1: Right, well, what do you look at that way? I

1757
01:23:00,640 --> 01:23:03,880
wouldn't know that for it, but it was fine. I

1758
01:23:03,960 --> 01:23:06,479
wasn't overly impressed. You look at the movies. I mean

1759
01:23:06,520 --> 01:23:08,439
you have Chris Pratt and Chris Pratt.

1760
01:23:08,520 --> 01:23:11,359
Speaker 2: Is Chris Pratt think Chris Pratt is cool?

1761
01:23:11,720 --> 01:23:14,680
Speaker 1: No? No, no, I'm saying they think John Ralfhio is

1762
01:23:14,800 --> 01:23:17,479
cooler and just has like a better vibe to him.

1763
01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:20,880
I always for Ben Schwartz. Sorry, I always been Schwartz, John.

1764
01:23:21,359 --> 01:23:26,000
Speaker 5: I get it. I get it at thinking of cartoon movies,

1765
01:23:26,039 --> 01:23:29,000
I saw Hoppers, the New Picks one over, We gain good.

1766
01:23:29,119 --> 01:23:31,640
Speaker 1: That's really good. Yeah, that's funny. Uh.

1767
01:23:32,159 --> 01:23:34,960
Speaker 5: The Teddo's confirmed that its switched to side scroller. Yoshi

1768
01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:38,039
and the Mysterious Book were released on May twenty. First

1769
01:23:38,479 --> 01:23:41,880
new trailer for this game came out today to celebrate

1770
01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:46,000
Mario Day with Just Today March tenth.

1771
01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:47,479
Speaker 1: Uh. Boy, I'm like I am.

1772
01:23:47,640 --> 01:23:49,920
Speaker 5: I don't know if I've ever been more cautious about

1773
01:23:49,920 --> 01:23:50,760
a video game.

1774
01:23:51,039 --> 01:23:52,600
Speaker 2: In fact, I don't even think cautious.

1775
01:23:52,720 --> 01:23:52,920
Speaker 1: Is that?

1776
01:23:53,039 --> 01:23:53,119
Speaker 7: Like?

1777
01:23:53,279 --> 01:23:54,840
Speaker 2: I think we just know what this is gonna be.

1778
01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:55,640
We've been how many times?

1779
01:23:55,760 --> 01:23:55,960
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1780
01:23:55,960 --> 01:23:56,119
Speaker 7: Wait?

1781
01:23:56,159 --> 01:23:57,720
Speaker 2: Are you a fellow Yoshi's Island fan?

1782
01:23:58,159 --> 01:23:58,279
Speaker 1: Oh?

1783
01:23:58,359 --> 01:24:02,840
Speaker 5: I love Yoshi's Island. Okay, and the sequels.

1784
01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:05,079
Speaker 2: Starting with Yoshi Story, starting with Back on the End

1785
01:24:05,159 --> 01:24:08,760
sixty four. Getting disappointed by every new fucking Yoshi platformer.

1786
01:24:09,279 --> 01:24:11,960
So I think I've made peace. It's a starfuck situation.

1787
01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:14,039
I made peace. I'm not going to get excited about this.

1788
01:24:14,119 --> 01:24:16,159
I will play it. I'm sure it'll be fine.

1789
01:24:16,560 --> 01:24:19,079
Speaker 1: I thought crafted World was like very exciting.

1790
01:24:19,159 --> 01:24:21,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, like the Wii U one and I don't know,

1791
01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:24,600
I played through it and nothing about it stuck with me.

1792
01:24:24,680 --> 01:24:26,479
It felt like I was just kind of floating through

1793
01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:27,640
some experience.

1794
01:24:27,720 --> 01:24:30,119
Speaker 1: It was the World on fire.

1795
01:24:30,279 --> 01:24:33,439
Speaker 5: No, that's what I expect from this. Like the art

1796
01:24:33,479 --> 01:24:36,079
style looks really cute. It has a bit of that

1797
01:24:36,199 --> 01:24:41,399
watercolar watercolor almost uh maybe claimation vibe to it. But

1798
01:24:41,439 --> 01:24:44,479
like even the gameplay, I'm like, what is this? It

1799
01:24:44,560 --> 01:24:48,920
almost seems more maybe puzzle platformer or I don't know,

1800
01:24:49,279 --> 01:24:52,199
I don't think this is the kind of not I

1801
01:24:52,239 --> 01:24:53,880
don't know if high auctings the were, but you know,

1802
01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:58,399
Yoshi's Island was a challenging, somewhat traditional but just level design,

1803
01:24:59,239 --> 01:25:02,600
running and jump been kind of focused two D platformer,

1804
01:25:03,039 --> 01:25:05,159
and I don't think that's what YO see them serious

1805
01:25:05,159 --> 01:25:07,880
books is to be. It seems it seems you know,

1806
01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:09,279
and like, you know, they know what they're doing, but

1807
01:25:09,439 --> 01:25:13,560
they've made Yoshi a very young kid targeted franchise now,

1808
01:25:13,840 --> 01:25:15,439
and I get why they do that, but it does

1809
01:25:15,520 --> 01:25:18,079
make the games less engaging.

1810
01:25:18,800 --> 01:25:20,640
Speaker 1: Look at this frog now.

1811
01:25:20,760 --> 01:25:22,479
Speaker 2: Some might say that Island is one of the best

1812
01:25:22,479 --> 01:25:23,720
two D platforms of all time.

1813
01:25:24,119 --> 01:25:26,199
Speaker 5: Of course, absolutely no, it's here to stop us from

1814
01:25:26,199 --> 01:25:27,920
saying that. I argue the point, yep.

1815
01:25:28,039 --> 01:25:31,239
Speaker 3: I'm surprised that this game is not hitting before the movie,

1816
01:25:31,640 --> 01:25:34,159
Like I'm surprised that they have are not parlaying them

1817
01:25:34,319 --> 01:25:38,159
in a way that you would think you absolutely would

1818
01:25:38,199 --> 01:25:40,079
just because Yoshi's a new character in the game in

1819
01:25:40,119 --> 01:25:43,199
the movie, and it's like, how do you not draw this,

1820
01:25:43,319 --> 01:25:45,000
Like how do you not have these sync up? Maybe

1821
01:25:45,039 --> 01:25:48,960
there are other production uh uh intangibles that we're unaware of,

1822
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:50,920
but like, I don't know, it seems like a missed time.

1823
01:25:51,119 --> 01:25:54,520
Speaker 5: Tendo's never super like, you know, they'll do synergies with

1824
01:25:55,159 --> 01:25:56,800
the movie for sure, but you know, in their mind

1825
01:25:56,840 --> 01:26:00,800
are already ten Mario and Yoh just some products on

1826
01:26:01,399 --> 01:26:03,279
that people will pick up, and that movie is gonna

1827
01:26:03,279 --> 01:26:05,680
have a long lifespan. This think comes out first. It's

1828
01:26:05,680 --> 01:26:07,600
not like it's totally missing.

1829
01:26:07,439 --> 01:26:11,680
Speaker 2: Saying hates Money, you got Super Mario, Wonder, Nintendo Switch

1830
01:26:11,720 --> 01:26:14,119
two Edition, Bell, Bell Island, bullshit. I mean that's the

1831
01:26:14,159 --> 01:26:15,439
big that's the headliner, right.

1832
01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:18,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I will play again.

1833
01:26:18,880 --> 01:26:20,640
Speaker 2: I've kind of been looking forward to playing that game again.

1834
01:26:22,479 --> 01:26:25,439
Speaker 5: Speaking of loving Money, epic is increasing the price of

1835
01:26:25,479 --> 01:26:29,880
for Fortnite V bucks in the block pusts announcing this,

1836
01:26:30,079 --> 01:26:32,199
they said, the cost of runny Fortnite has gone up

1837
01:26:32,199 --> 01:26:35,680
a lot, and we're raising prices to help pay the bills.

1838
01:26:35,840 --> 01:26:36,920
Speaker 1: But I don't know if I want.

1839
01:26:37,079 --> 01:26:40,840
Speaker 5: I don't know if I want to talk raise things like,

1840
01:26:41,039 --> 01:26:45,039
oh my god, you have the fucking nerve to say that.

1841
01:26:45,279 --> 01:26:48,520
Speaker 1: Just say that true, Just say that you don't. Don't

1842
01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:54,159
say this quote. Do you think we're fucking ass the bills?

1843
01:26:54,560 --> 01:26:56,159
That's the quote? Yeh fell.

1844
01:26:57,720 --> 01:27:01,840
Speaker 3: Just say, just say, no amount of money will ever

1845
01:27:02,239 --> 01:27:07,239
be enough. It will never be enough. It does not.

1846
01:27:07,560 --> 01:27:09,680
Speaker 1: Fucking Fortnite mays eight billion.

1847
01:27:09,359 --> 01:27:13,359
Speaker 3: Dollars a month. It's never enough. It's never gonna be enough.

1848
01:27:13,560 --> 01:27:17,119
Fortnite costs more to fucking run up. Go eat your eat,

1849
01:27:17,199 --> 01:27:18,680
eat a butt, eat a butt.

1850
01:27:19,600 --> 01:27:23,399
Speaker 1: Uh not gonna keep the Yeah, oh I go.

1851
01:27:23,720 --> 01:27:26,880
Speaker 3: People just like bumming quarters at the bus stop working

1852
01:27:26,920 --> 01:27:27,439
for epic.

1853
01:27:27,880 --> 01:27:29,199
Speaker 1: Chet the fuck out of here.

1854
01:27:29,680 --> 01:27:31,880
Speaker 5: Nine dollars used to get you one hundred, one thousand

1855
01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:33,960
V bucks, Now you get eight hundred. To give you

1856
01:27:33,960 --> 01:27:37,279
an example, Uh, the battle Pass, which previously costs a

1857
01:27:37,319 --> 01:27:41,439
thousand V bucks, now only costs eight hundred, but completing

1858
01:27:41,479 --> 01:27:44,000
it will also only earn the player eight hundred V

1859
01:27:44,039 --> 01:27:46,920
bucks instead of a thousand. That doesn't mean that at

1860
01:27:47,000 --> 01:27:49,600
least uh, that means the players can unlock the next

1861
01:27:49,600 --> 01:27:51,159
battle pass with the rewards from previous one.

1862
01:27:51,199 --> 01:27:55,560
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, and this money is not enough, Mike, so

1863
01:27:55,760 --> 01:27:58,359
we have to raise the price of this invisible money.

1864
01:28:00,359 --> 01:28:04,039
It's just sorry, say the truth. Don't give me this shiit,

1865
01:28:04,279 --> 01:28:08,600
Say the fucking truth. Say endless profit. That's what we're after.

1866
01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:12,039
It's never enough. Fuck you love epic.

1867
01:28:12,079 --> 01:28:14,159
Speaker 5: I feel like it's a is this like an interesting

1868
01:28:14,199 --> 01:28:15,880
new litmus test for the economy?

1869
01:28:15,920 --> 01:28:16,439
Speaker 1: Is what it's?

1870
01:28:16,479 --> 01:28:18,399
Speaker 5: What is the exchange rate on v bucks?

1871
01:28:18,439 --> 01:28:18,680
Speaker 1: Now?

1872
01:28:19,720 --> 01:28:23,600
Speaker 5: Oh jesus, what's going on with roebucks? What's happening over there?

1873
01:28:23,720 --> 01:28:27,840
So someone let me know. Uh, speaking of money, Nintendo

1874
01:28:27,880 --> 01:28:32,640
issuing the US government over tariffs. Oh yeah, this is

1875
01:28:32,720 --> 01:28:35,640
this is related to the you know Supreme Court selling

1876
01:28:35,680 --> 01:28:39,800
Trump that hey, all those tariffs he did were illegal. Actually,

1877
01:28:40,960 --> 01:28:43,319
you know, Trump's trying to still say I got other

1878
01:28:43,359 --> 01:28:44,760
ways of doing the terist blah blah blah. But in

1879
01:28:44,840 --> 01:28:48,279
the meantime, like a thousand companies are suing to get

1880
01:28:48,840 --> 01:28:52,079
money back from that. And this includes Nintendo, which was

1881
01:28:52,119 --> 01:28:54,239
really affected by the timing of the tariffs because they

1882
01:28:54,399 --> 01:28:56,239
was right when they're getting ready to release Switch to

1883
01:28:56,760 --> 01:28:59,960
they delayed pre orders, and that's something they're specifically saying

1884
01:29:00,079 --> 01:29:01,720
cost the money was the fact that they had to

1885
01:29:01,800 --> 01:29:04,520
delay the pre orders and they had to reconsider if

1886
01:29:04,520 --> 01:29:05,720
they were going to launch a thing, and then they

1887
01:29:05,840 --> 01:29:11,359
raised a price for accessories and things like that. So yeah,

1888
01:29:11,600 --> 01:29:13,800
it's pretty interesting to at first it seems like wholl

1889
01:29:13,880 --> 01:29:15,840
Nintendo's just going up through the US government. But again,

1890
01:29:16,800 --> 01:29:19,479
a lot of companies are right. It's not like Nintendo

1891
01:29:19,600 --> 01:29:23,319
is necessarily sticking its neck out here, particularly like they're

1892
01:29:23,439 --> 01:29:26,520
they're not in danger of getting targeted in a way of.

1893
01:29:26,640 --> 01:29:29,199
Speaker 3: No, but I liked what was For example, it's a

1894
01:29:29,279 --> 01:29:32,359
pro it's not it's not a protest, it's a it's

1895
01:29:32,399 --> 01:29:36,840
an opportunity to recoup value. That's what it is, right,

1896
01:29:36,880 --> 01:29:38,960
It's an opportunity to recoup a refund.

1897
01:29:39,079 --> 01:29:41,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, exactly. So that so that's going to be

1898
01:29:41,680 --> 01:29:43,760
going through the courts. We'll see how long that all takes.

1899
01:29:43,760 --> 01:29:46,399
I bet a long long time, but I bet.

1900
01:29:46,479 --> 01:29:49,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, we'll have to pay the US Defense Bill yeah,

1901
01:29:49,199 --> 01:29:50,359
of course, and this is great.

1902
01:29:50,479 --> 01:29:53,479
Speaker 1: Yeah cool cool. I love where all my tax dollars

1903
01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:57,159
are going right now? Yeah? Oh brother, Yeah, I'm not

1904
01:29:57,199 --> 01:30:00,000
going to pay taxes this year. You can't.

1905
01:30:00,720 --> 01:30:04,079
Speaker 3: My advice, no you can. It's we're not recommending it.

1906
01:30:04,199 --> 01:30:06,560
Do Everyone should pay your taxes. Don't pay your text,

1907
01:30:06,800 --> 01:30:08,600
but pay your tax, pay your tax.

1908
01:30:09,079 --> 01:30:09,920
Speaker 1: I'm just not gonna.

1909
01:30:11,520 --> 01:30:14,880
Speaker 5: Sega says strong reviews for its recent games aren't yet

1910
01:30:14,880 --> 01:30:19,680
translating to better sales. Part of a recent financial result,

1911
01:30:20,479 --> 01:30:23,920
Q and A here says the relatively high acclaim of

1912
01:30:23,960 --> 01:30:26,159
modern games has not yet translated higher sales, and it's

1913
01:30:26,159 --> 01:30:29,800
aiming to improve its marketing and sales practices as a result.

1914
01:30:30,239 --> 01:30:32,840
Last eighteen months, saying an Atlas have released a bunch

1915
01:30:32,840 --> 01:30:35,319
of games that have scored pretty well, like Shanobi Our

1916
01:30:35,399 --> 01:30:37,920
a Vengeance as a Metacritic for eighty seven, two point

1917
01:30:38,039 --> 01:30:40,960
museum metacritic of eighty four, that's too low. Metaphor in

1918
01:30:40,960 --> 01:30:45,000
Fantasio is a meta crek of ninety four Sonic Racing Crossworld.

1919
01:30:45,039 --> 01:30:47,239
It's a meta critic of eighty two that One Day

1920
01:30:47,279 --> 01:30:51,520
specified before as being a little bit slower in the

1921
01:30:51,520 --> 01:30:56,760
sales front than they expected. I think this is interesting

1922
01:30:56,800 --> 01:30:59,840
something I remember. I think something similar with Capcom happened

1923
01:30:59,840 --> 01:31:03,399
when and they were turning residueval around at first, where

1924
01:31:03,640 --> 01:31:05,960
it's kind of confusing because like Resievil six sold really

1925
01:31:05,960 --> 01:31:08,520
well and seven was maybe a little slower. It's like, well,

1926
01:31:08,960 --> 01:31:12,039
sometimes the current game is selling based off the reputation

1927
01:31:12,119 --> 01:31:15,439
of the previous game, right, so maybe it takes a

1928
01:31:15,479 --> 01:31:18,119
little bit to catch up. I better Sega keeps releasing

1929
01:31:18,119 --> 01:31:22,359
good games. They'll hit those sales targets like they want to. Yeah,

1930
01:31:22,399 --> 01:31:27,119
there's probably maybe also a marketing aspect to that as

1931
01:31:27,199 --> 01:31:28,439
well that they need to work on.

1932
01:31:28,920 --> 01:31:32,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. I hope this doesn't lead to a trend of them, like,

1933
01:31:32,079 --> 01:31:34,960
you know, kind of abandoning this good run, this fairly

1934
01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:38,439
good run of video games that they've been on, abandoning

1935
01:31:38,439 --> 01:31:41,239
that to just try and make a quick buck and

1936
01:31:41,600 --> 01:31:43,960
go for something that they think would lead to a

1937
01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:48,520
bunch of sales. Because like Schanoby Artivention's great two point Museum, Mike,

1938
01:31:48,560 --> 01:31:55,199
you really liked it, Therefore, great Sonic Racing, Eh.

1939
01:31:53,840 --> 01:31:55,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, that one I thought. I don't know that one.

1940
01:31:55,840 --> 01:31:58,800
I don't like maybe as much as the average critic

1941
01:31:58,840 --> 01:32:02,119
on that one, But uh, yeah, Like a metaphor is

1942
01:32:02,159 --> 01:32:04,159
interesting because you know huge, I bet that game has

1943
01:32:04,239 --> 01:32:06,760
done well. I wonder if Atlas has also maybe shot

1944
01:32:06,800 --> 01:32:08,560
themselves in the foot a little bit with the way

1945
01:32:09,039 --> 01:32:11,199
with the Persona games, they're like, we released the game,

1946
01:32:11,239 --> 01:32:13,399
and then a year later or two years later, it's like,

1947
01:32:13,399 --> 01:32:16,239
now here's the super plus version with even more content,

1948
01:32:16,560 --> 01:32:18,520
and a lot of people feel burned for buying the

1949
01:32:18,560 --> 01:32:19,439
original version.

1950
01:32:20,319 --> 01:32:20,760
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1951
01:32:20,840 --> 01:32:22,960
Speaker 5: I don't know if there's a sizeable amount of people

1952
01:32:23,000 --> 01:32:26,319
waiting for Metaphor for that reason or something. But who knows.

1953
01:32:26,479 --> 01:32:29,000
Speaker 1: Oh, I guess I never thought that Metaphor could potentially

1954
01:32:29,039 --> 01:32:32,920
have that like Deluxe this is the ultimate version with

1955
01:32:33,119 --> 01:32:35,359
more story, yeah.

1956
01:32:34,960 --> 01:32:37,239
Speaker 5: Which, like I don't think it needs to. I think

1957
01:32:37,279 --> 01:32:39,399
these games already come out with so much content. I

1958
01:32:39,479 --> 01:32:41,560
kind of wrap. I don't love that. Like I never

1959
01:32:41,600 --> 01:32:44,159
went back to play percent of five Royality, and everyone's

1960
01:32:44,159 --> 01:32:47,079
like it's better. I'm like, yeah, I can't play one

1961
01:32:47,159 --> 01:32:49,880
hundred hour game twice. Really, I don't know.

1962
01:32:50,079 --> 01:32:53,119
Speaker 1: It's just a lot uh ea.

1963
01:32:53,319 --> 01:32:57,039
Speaker 5: Laysoff staff across all Battlefield studios Following the record pricking

1964
01:32:57,159 --> 01:33:01,640
Battlefield six launch's laid off a unknow number of visuals

1965
01:33:01,640 --> 01:33:06,000
from different Baffeld teams, including employees a Criterion Dice, Ripe

1966
01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:07,680
Effects and Motive Studios.

1967
01:33:08,760 --> 01:33:09,640
Speaker 1: Ig said that.

1968
01:33:09,640 --> 01:33:12,880
Speaker 5: These the universe being formed, that laborers are taking part

1969
01:33:12,920 --> 01:33:16,359
as taking place as part of a realignment across the

1970
01:33:16,359 --> 01:33:19,840
Battlefield studios. All the cities are going to remain operational,

1971
01:33:20,279 --> 01:33:23,640
although the layoffs will of course impact them. Battlefold six

1972
01:33:23,680 --> 01:33:25,760
was the best game of twenty five in the United States,

1973
01:33:25,760 --> 01:33:28,880
actually sold a record shattering seven million copies in three days.

1974
01:33:29,079 --> 01:33:31,239
It was the best launch ever for a game in

1975
01:33:31,359 --> 01:33:34,840
the franchise. Now it does seem like the game has

1976
01:33:34,880 --> 01:33:37,760
lost a bit of steam since that incredible launch, so

1977
01:33:37,840 --> 01:33:39,680
maybe they're like, well, we needed all those people to

1978
01:33:39,760 --> 01:33:43,840
launch this game, not to keep it going, although it

1979
01:33:43,840 --> 01:33:47,760
still seems incredibly shitty that you work on the biggest

1980
01:33:47,760 --> 01:33:52,199
game of last year and now you are fired for realignment.

1981
01:33:52,680 --> 01:33:53,920
Whatever the hell that means.

1982
01:33:54,079 --> 01:33:57,000
Speaker 1: Sustainable It seems like sustainable behavior.

1983
01:33:57,279 --> 01:34:00,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, so I don't know, that's just that's just

1984
01:34:00,479 --> 01:34:02,399
an absolute ton of behte this bullshit.

1985
01:34:02,760 --> 01:34:03,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, Battlefield.

1986
01:34:03,560 --> 01:34:06,600
Speaker 5: They also, of course, for no reason like launched another

1987
01:34:06,960 --> 01:34:12,079
attempt at doing a battle royale that nobody played again,

1988
01:34:12,479 --> 01:34:14,520
so they keep going to that well with no success.

1989
01:34:14,560 --> 01:34:16,880
So no matter how long it's going to be before we

1990
01:34:16,960 --> 01:34:20,199
get the Battlefield extraction shooter that people don't really care

1991
01:34:20,199 --> 01:34:22,239
about either, because it turns out Battlefield fans want to

1992
01:34:22,239 --> 01:34:28,520
play Battlefield. What Yeah, that's wow. Warrior Aware series director

1993
01:34:28,560 --> 01:34:32,359
Goro Abbe has left Nintendo grow. Abbe posted on x

1994
01:34:32,439 --> 01:34:34,720
that he resigned for the company last month, leaving the

1995
01:34:34,720 --> 01:34:37,720
games industrail together. He's going to be joining the Osaka

1996
01:34:37,800 --> 01:34:40,439
electro Communication University.

1997
01:34:40,720 --> 01:34:42,720
Speaker 1: Cool yeah. Abba.

1998
01:34:43,039 --> 01:34:46,239
Speaker 5: Abbe started as a programmer on Warreland four for the

1999
01:34:46,279 --> 01:34:50,760
Game Boy Advanced in nineteen ninety nine. Since then, he's

2000
01:34:50,880 --> 01:34:53,720
worked prom mostly on the Warrior series as a director

2001
01:34:53,800 --> 01:34:56,680
for games like Why We're a Mega Party Games a GameCube,

2002
01:34:56,680 --> 01:34:59,319
Why We're Twisted on GBA all the way up to

2003
01:34:59,560 --> 01:35:02,520
the re Since Switch Games, Warriwork, Get It Together, and

2004
01:35:03,039 --> 01:35:06,119
Why You Where Move It Dan? You're a Warrioware fan?

2005
01:35:06,159 --> 01:35:08,640
Are you like worried about the future of the franchise

2006
01:35:08,720 --> 01:35:09,479
or anything like that?

2007
01:35:09,800 --> 01:35:10,720
Speaker 1: I mean, I.

2008
01:35:12,279 --> 01:35:14,640
Speaker 2: Like that. I'm happy anytime there's a new warriorwear I

2009
01:35:14,880 --> 01:35:17,279
won't say the more recent ones have stacked up to

2010
01:35:17,520 --> 01:35:19,840
maybe the older like DS and GBA ones or anything,

2011
01:35:19,880 --> 01:35:22,840
but I guess, I mean, if he's worked on all

2012
01:35:22,880 --> 01:35:25,279
of these, then obviously he was a big part of

2013
01:35:25,399 --> 01:35:27,840
what made those games what they are, so hopefully they

2014
01:35:27,880 --> 01:35:29,399
can keep that spirit going forward.

2015
01:35:30,640 --> 01:35:30,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2016
01:35:32,119 --> 01:35:35,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, I bet we'll get another Warriwaar game eventually. I

2017
01:35:35,279 --> 01:35:37,840
won't wouldn't mind a bit of a break. I think

2018
01:35:38,399 --> 01:35:40,199
I think a lot of people really want to see

2019
01:35:40,199 --> 01:35:43,680
a Warrior Land again, or even a new a new

2020
01:35:43,760 --> 01:35:46,760
something else with Warrio, right, yeah.

2021
01:35:46,760 --> 01:35:49,199
Speaker 2: Something to all those old ones are like, you know,

2022
01:35:49,239 --> 01:35:51,800
I always put together these little handhelds and emulation machines

2023
01:35:51,840 --> 01:35:54,680
and everything, and they just turn into warriorwear machines. And

2024
01:35:54,720 --> 01:35:56,760
it turns out like all those old ones are still

2025
01:35:57,079 --> 01:36:00,600
extremely fun and very evergreen, whether it's the GB or

2026
01:36:00,640 --> 01:36:03,439
the DS one. So I can always go back to

2027
01:36:03,439 --> 01:36:03,840
the old.

2028
01:36:03,720 --> 01:36:07,640
Speaker 5: Ones, right yeah, Like yeah, just playing normal Warior where

2029
01:36:07,720 --> 01:36:11,319
on NSO is actually still kind of a great experience.

2030
01:36:11,359 --> 01:36:12,520
I'm almost happy.

2031
01:36:12,319 --> 01:36:13,800
Speaker 1: Just having that. Uh.

2032
01:36:14,079 --> 01:36:16,399
Speaker 5: Valve insisted will release the Steam Machine and Steam for

2033
01:36:16,439 --> 01:36:20,560
Even twenty twenty six after a blog said it hoped to. So, yeah,

2034
01:36:20,560 --> 01:36:22,640
this is the thing where Valve kind of had this

2035
01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:25,840
blog post about the Steam Year review toy Tway five

2036
01:36:26,319 --> 01:36:29,159
and in it they're like, oh, here's our lineup of

2037
01:36:29,199 --> 01:36:32,880
all that announced hardware we announced last year. You know,

2038
01:36:32,920 --> 01:36:37,720
there's these memory and shortage storage supplies, but we are

2039
01:36:37,800 --> 01:36:39,880
still hoping to ship the stuff. In twy twenty six,

2040
01:36:39,920 --> 01:36:41,319
a lot of people freaked out, like.

2041
01:36:41,279 --> 01:36:42,319
Speaker 1: Hope, what do you mean hope?

2042
01:36:42,319 --> 01:36:42,479
Speaker 5: Hope?

2043
01:36:42,520 --> 01:36:42,760
Speaker 1: Hope.

2044
01:36:43,000 --> 01:36:45,439
Speaker 5: So Valve kind of came out like nothing's changed on

2045
01:36:45,479 --> 01:36:49,319
our end and they replaced the word hope and kind

2046
01:36:49,319 --> 01:36:53,319
of changed the wording there. But I don't know, you guys, yeah, replaceing.

2047
01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:56,479
Let's get people don't like hope these days. Hope has

2048
01:36:56,520 --> 01:36:57,960
a negative connotation.

2049
01:36:58,600 --> 01:37:02,199
Speaker 3: Actually, we've we've replaced the word hope.

2050
01:37:04,119 --> 01:37:06,079
Speaker 5: I don't know, how are you guys feeling about that

2051
01:37:06,199 --> 01:37:08,840
suite of hardware, the control or the Steam Machine. I

2052
01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:09,960
want to Steam Frame?

2053
01:37:10,520 --> 01:37:11,359
Speaker 1: Want it? I want it?

2054
01:37:11,560 --> 01:37:14,199
Speaker 5: Yeah, I want it. I'm definitely worried about I'm not

2055
01:37:14,199 --> 01:37:16,000
I don't know if I'm worried about the release day

2056
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:18,680
as much as I'm worried about the price. That's the issue.

2057
01:37:18,920 --> 01:37:20,880
It's gonna be a lot, no matter what, It's gonna

2058
01:37:20,920 --> 01:37:23,720
be a lot, but it could be a lot a

2059
01:37:23,720 --> 01:37:26,680
lot because of these shortages, and there's still weird tariff

2060
01:37:26,720 --> 01:37:30,520
situations and confusion around that, but especially the shortages, the

2061
01:37:30,640 --> 01:37:33,239
RAM stuff. It's gonna be a big issue. And Valve

2062
01:37:33,279 --> 01:37:36,359
is now in this sort of unenviable position of kind

2063
01:37:36,399 --> 01:37:40,800
of having to navigate these waters before a PlayStation will

2064
01:37:40,800 --> 01:37:43,640
have to before Xbox is gonna have to with Helix.

2065
01:37:43,880 --> 01:37:46,239
So it's gonna be pretty interesting to see how they

2066
01:37:46,600 --> 01:37:48,960
approach us. How much money, if any, they're going to

2067
01:37:48,960 --> 01:37:51,640
be willing to lose on the hardware.

2068
01:37:52,279 --> 01:37:56,399
Speaker 2: Val free tip here, just don't don't make RAM part

2069
01:37:56,399 --> 01:37:56,640
of it.

2070
01:37:58,199 --> 01:38:02,279
Speaker 1: I mean, that's not a bad idea. RAM. Yeah, just

2071
01:38:02,319 --> 01:38:11,640
put like the yeah it did, it probably did. It's

2072
01:38:11,680 --> 01:38:15,279
pretty good. All kidding aside, I know you're joking, Dan,

2073
01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:19,079
I explaining RAM to people who are like over the

2074
01:38:19,119 --> 01:38:22,439
age of seventy is awesome, and I reckon everyone does.

2075
01:38:22,479 --> 01:38:22,760
I don't.

2076
01:38:23,159 --> 01:38:24,880
Speaker 2: I don't know if I could explain it is it.

2077
01:38:25,000 --> 01:38:27,319
That's not the brain. The CPU is the brain, right.

2078
01:38:28,279 --> 01:38:33,239
Speaker 1: Labor It's a random random access memory. It's like temporary memory. Yeah,

2079
01:38:33,279 --> 01:38:34,039
it's confusing.

2080
01:38:34,079 --> 01:38:35,720
Speaker 5: You have to like read, You have to take a

2081
01:38:35,880 --> 01:38:39,199
course in college or two to really understand anything. I've

2082
01:38:39,239 --> 01:38:42,560
been listening to books and understand it. Slightly now where

2083
01:38:42,560 --> 01:38:44,479
I used to understand it, not at all, but even then,

2084
01:38:44,560 --> 01:38:47,079
not really. It's vacant, it's it's it's wild.

2085
01:38:47,319 --> 01:38:48,800
Speaker 1: It's all switches.

2086
01:38:48,880 --> 01:38:51,399
Speaker 5: It's all electrical signals that make a one or a zero,

2087
01:38:51,680 --> 01:38:54,399
and somehow you get enough of those and you have

2088
01:38:54,479 --> 01:38:56,039
a resident evil on your computer.

2089
01:38:57,119 --> 01:38:58,760
Speaker 1: Why is it just ones and zero's.

2090
01:38:58,840 --> 01:39:00,680
Speaker 3: I feel like we're just limiting or so many different

2091
01:39:01,119 --> 01:39:03,840
we added it to No, no, let's throw in I

2092
01:39:03,880 --> 01:39:05,560
don't know, like an exclamation mark.

2093
01:39:07,319 --> 01:39:07,760
Speaker 1: Or that.

2094
01:39:08,439 --> 01:39:09,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it.

2095
01:39:10,239 --> 01:39:13,720
Speaker 5: It's like one Jane, that's the news. I'm turning the

2096
01:39:13,760 --> 01:39:14,399
show back.

2097
01:39:14,239 --> 01:39:17,439
Speaker 1: Over to you. Uh. You know friend of the website,

2098
01:39:17,479 --> 01:39:20,439
Matt Piscatella, he just posted this on Blue Sky. Uh,

2099
01:39:21,039 --> 01:39:23,520
something that Sircana is reporting, And I feel like this

2100
01:39:23,560 --> 01:39:25,640
would just be a fun stat to share with everyone,

2101
01:39:26,159 --> 01:39:29,840
especially because Dylan may not be into Mario and maybe

2102
01:39:29,880 --> 01:39:33,680
Mario's not for the kids. According to this graphic, fifty

2103
01:39:33,720 --> 01:39:38,079
percent of people who bought Super Mario licensed products in

2104
01:39:38,159 --> 01:39:42,319
twenty twenty five were in households without children.

2105
01:39:42,880 --> 01:39:48,199
Speaker 2: Wow, yeah, fifty fifty sense it makes experience.

2106
01:39:48,359 --> 01:39:53,720
Speaker 1: So that also means that maybe Mario gets a little

2107
01:39:53,720 --> 01:39:55,359
more adult like.

2108
01:39:57,560 --> 01:40:04,359
Speaker 3: Zoipe at zero, Mono, finally, jan Finally he lays the pipe.

2109
01:40:03,680 --> 01:40:07,560
Yeah yeah, I'm just saying, like, would it kill you

2110
01:40:07,720 --> 01:40:12,319
to like have Mario grow with his most beloved fida anybody?

2111
01:40:12,359 --> 01:40:18,159
Speaker 1: What's Yeah, well, you guys are wrong. Can you imagine

2112
01:40:18,279 --> 01:40:21,000
if Mario trips in a level he just goes ah fuck,

2113
01:40:22,279 --> 01:40:25,000
I mean it just like holds his knee. That'd be fun.

2114
01:40:25,399 --> 01:40:27,600
Speaker 3: I guess he does that in the first movie. But yeah,

2115
01:40:27,720 --> 01:40:31,399
you know, I don't know. I guess, like I guess,

2116
01:40:31,000 --> 01:40:34,560
I'm not like, I guess. I'm not clamoring for like

2117
01:40:34,720 --> 01:40:38,199
adult Mario. I just think it's funny that, like everyone

2118
01:40:38,199 --> 01:40:43,079
else around him gets progressively older and he's just like

2119
01:40:43,800 --> 01:40:50,800
stuck at whatever. Oh no, I'm talking about the fans us.

2120
01:40:51,399 --> 01:40:56,439
Speaker 5: Always and then those fans he's.

2121
01:40:56,319 --> 01:41:00,279
Speaker 1: Not McConaughey and dazed and confused, right like, yeah.

2122
01:41:00,439 --> 01:41:02,359
Speaker 5: Right, I don't I think that. I think what they

2123
01:41:02,359 --> 01:41:04,800
got go where Mario is working pretty well right now?

2124
01:41:05,000 --> 01:41:06,920
Speaker 1: No, I know, I know. But do you think he

2125
01:41:07,000 --> 01:41:07,920
still speaks to you?

2126
01:41:08,319 --> 01:41:08,560
Speaker 5: Yeah?

2127
01:41:08,800 --> 01:41:14,960
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you're not the best person. But yes, I'll

2128
01:41:15,520 --> 01:41:17,479
I'll do a bit of a non scientific service.

2129
01:41:17,479 --> 01:41:22,960
Speaker 1: I'm a child and that's important. Mike. You hold onto that.

2130
01:41:23,439 --> 01:41:23,720
Speaker 8: Yay.

2131
01:41:24,239 --> 01:41:26,840
Speaker 5: I saw the kids mov last week, and I'll see

2132
01:41:26,840 --> 01:41:31,560
another kids movie on on April first, and then Toy

2133
01:41:31,600 --> 01:41:34,199
Story fives after that. I think that that's I think

2134
01:41:34,239 --> 01:41:36,399
I've only seen kids movies apparently.

2135
01:41:36,479 --> 01:41:39,159
Speaker 3: This I want to report back. I want to do

2136
01:41:39,199 --> 01:41:40,960
a little bit of digging. I'm gonna ask Dib and

2137
01:41:41,000 --> 01:41:42,359
some of the friends and just be like, you.

2138
01:41:42,279 --> 01:41:44,880
Speaker 1: Guys care about like the Mario movie coming out next month,

2139
01:41:44,960 --> 01:41:47,520
and like there's a Mario movie coming, and then some

2140
01:41:47,560 --> 01:41:49,159
of them will be like two year old.

2141
01:41:49,239 --> 01:41:51,960
Speaker 2: I was running this weekend and there's a family and

2142
01:41:52,000 --> 01:41:53,520
they had their Kurts and all that stuff, and one

2143
01:41:53,520 --> 01:41:56,239
of the kids was like walking and you said, I

2144
01:41:56,279 --> 01:41:58,439
mean he waved me and he had a Mario kurt

2145
01:41:58,560 --> 01:41:59,680
shirt and I said.

2146
01:41:59,600 --> 01:42:07,680
Speaker 3: Nice and he picked okay, or was just dressed because

2147
01:42:07,680 --> 01:42:08,560
he's too.

2148
01:42:09,840 --> 01:42:10,279
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2149
01:42:10,399 --> 01:42:13,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, I'm curious, you know, I don't know. I'm

2150
01:42:13,720 --> 01:42:16,000
gonna show him the latest trailer and just like kick

2151
01:42:16,079 --> 01:42:16,720
the times.

2152
01:42:17,119 --> 01:42:20,560
Speaker 5: But your theory is that Mario is falling out of popularity, right,

2153
01:42:20,560 --> 01:42:21,520
that's what you're trying to know.

2154
01:42:21,720 --> 01:42:23,880
Speaker 3: That is not what I'm saying. I'm just saying for

2155
01:42:23,960 --> 01:42:27,359
the for the demo of child that I am raising.

2156
01:42:27,760 --> 01:42:31,079
I think perhaps it's like not top of mind that

2157
01:42:31,279 --> 01:42:35,279
I still fundamentally believe this movie will make a metric

2158
01:42:35,840 --> 01:42:40,560
ton of money from as a result of patronage from

2159
01:42:40,600 --> 01:42:44,880
all ages. I just you know, in my little anecdotal experience,

2160
01:42:44,960 --> 01:42:47,800
I do think dib is sort of like take it

2161
01:42:47,880 --> 01:42:48,239
or leave it?

2162
01:42:48,279 --> 01:42:48,760
Speaker 1: He could, you know.

2163
01:42:49,199 --> 01:42:51,199
Speaker 5: As part of that research, I want you to find

2164
01:42:51,199 --> 01:42:54,600
out what what is dib and perhaps his colleagues what

2165
01:42:54,720 --> 01:42:57,720
is their most what is their biggest concern in terms

2166
01:42:57,720 --> 01:42:58,199
of right like?

2167
01:42:58,239 --> 01:42:59,239
Speaker 1: What is what is?

2168
01:42:59,600 --> 01:43:03,319
Speaker 5: What is what is the character or ip that they

2169
01:43:03,399 --> 01:43:06,880
do think is the best? What is their number one

2170
01:43:06,920 --> 01:43:09,520
like when we were kids like turtles?

2171
01:43:09,600 --> 01:43:16,159
Speaker 1: Right? What is number one? From right about? I think

2172
01:43:16,199 --> 01:43:18,520
it will be all over the map, But you're like chapelone.

2173
01:43:20,640 --> 01:43:23,199
I don't think that. No, I don't think it's Chapel

2174
01:43:24,199 --> 01:43:27,680
so popular. Okay, and then follow up Q to that

2175
01:43:28,000 --> 01:43:30,880
back Lauren, then we'll go take a bricky break. If

2176
01:43:30,920 --> 01:43:36,439
Mike's done with the news news Okay, all right? Has

2177
01:43:36,640 --> 01:43:42,239
Dibb and his colleagues and his cohort consumed that specific

2178
01:43:42,319 --> 01:43:46,399
media they're into or have they just seen it in Fortnite.

2179
01:43:46,840 --> 01:43:52,000
Speaker 5: Oh fuck, answer of the thing they care about the most, right,

2180
01:43:52,039 --> 01:43:52,880
Like that might be.

2181
01:43:53,840 --> 01:43:56,079
Speaker 3: That's why it's so fleeting, Right Like, I do think

2182
01:43:56,119 --> 01:43:58,680
a lot of the culture is driven by what has

2183
01:43:58,720 --> 01:44:02,199
appeared in Fortnite to some degree, Like he knew what

2184
01:44:02,239 --> 01:44:03,079
the Hopper guy.

2185
01:44:03,359 --> 01:44:05,600
Speaker 5: Like him, we're worried about Fortnite because they can't pay

2186
01:44:05,600 --> 01:44:06,520
the bills anymore.

2187
01:44:06,640 --> 01:44:11,520
Speaker 1: Right time, pour pour one out? I do, yeah, like

2188
01:44:11,600 --> 01:44:15,560
he knew the frog from the Hopper movie, because at that.

2189
01:44:15,840 --> 01:44:19,359
Speaker 5: I think it's more like a blizzard's interesting.

2190
01:44:19,840 --> 01:44:22,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, folks, We're gonna go take a quick

2191
01:44:22,319 --> 01:44:25,319
bricky break and we will be back with some emails

2192
01:44:25,359 --> 01:44:29,199
and YouTube super chats if we got them right after this.

2193
01:44:35,199 --> 01:44:42,800
These are the emails. Yeah, BombCast John bomb dot com

2194
01:44:42,880 --> 01:44:45,840

01:44:55,239 --> 01:44:58,319

the very nice words that people have been sending along.

2200
01:45:01,960 --> 01:45:06,039
I have not been doing my best to relay those emails.

2201
01:45:06,760 --> 01:45:11,399
General sentiments to these boyos over here, but gang the

2202
01:45:11,439 --> 01:45:16,000
heat on the street is generally good too. Great. Yeah,

2203
01:45:16,079 --> 01:45:19,720
so happy that people are enjoying their time with us.

2204
01:45:19,960 --> 01:45:22,960
We hope you continue to first email of the show

2205
01:45:22,960 --> 01:45:27,039
comes from Phil from Austin. On your most recent talkover

2206
01:45:28,000 --> 01:45:31,199
Nintendo Indie World, Dan exclaimed link to the past, did

2207
01:45:31,239 --> 01:45:34,880
at need DLC? That makes me wonder what if Nintendo

2208
01:45:35,199 --> 01:45:38,880
did start releasing DLC for classic games? After all they did,

2209
01:45:39,640 --> 01:45:42,239
after all, they did release extra levels for Super Mario

2210
01:45:42,279 --> 01:45:45,239
three in Carter reform. Is there a classic game you

2211
01:45:45,279 --> 01:45:47,680
would like to see DLC four. I might like to

2212
01:45:47,680 --> 01:45:50,279
see extra dungeons added to wind Waker. I know it's

2213
01:45:50,279 --> 01:45:52,680
a fan favorite, but I can't help but think it

2214
01:45:52,720 --> 01:45:55,119
has some of the weaker dungeons of the three d's

2215
01:45:55,119 --> 01:45:59,319
elder games. Parentheses, PS, marry me, Tomadacci rivals some of

2216
01:45:59,359 --> 01:46:02,239
my favorite bomb content of all time. You guys are

2217
01:46:02,279 --> 01:46:06,880
killing it lately, fist Well, actually a tell of you.

2218
01:46:07,319 --> 01:46:10,560
Speaker 5: In Japan broadcast they kind of linked to the past,

2219
01:46:10,600 --> 01:46:14,000
sort of sequel things. So yeah, you know, even then

2220
01:46:14,039 --> 01:46:16,359
there was something kind of like DLC.

2221
01:46:16,239 --> 01:46:18,119
Speaker 2: They were trying ship. Yeah, the card reader thing. That

2222
01:46:18,159 --> 01:46:19,960
e reader is like the most Nintendo way to go

2223
01:46:20,000 --> 01:46:22,319
about that for sure. Like even I couldn't get on board.

2224
01:46:22,319 --> 01:46:24,680
I'm not buying this thing to play a few levels.

2225
01:46:24,800 --> 01:46:27,880
Speaker 1: It was hell. It was hell a cool though.

2226
01:46:27,680 --> 01:46:30,920
Speaker 2: Interesting concept for sure. I think Phil's idea here of

2227
01:46:30,960 --> 01:46:33,279
wind Waker. I think there's a He's right about the

2228
01:46:33,680 --> 01:46:36,520
dungeons being weaker in wind Waker, but like imagine like

2229
01:46:36,560 --> 01:46:38,640
a shadow of the urd Tree type like you know,

2230
01:46:38,960 --> 01:46:41,720
Beefy delC of wind Wakers set and like maybe that

2231
01:46:42,279 --> 01:46:44,439
high roll from Underwater where it's like you get a

2232
01:46:44,479 --> 01:46:47,399
glimpse of like like imagine just that you know, like

2233
01:46:47,439 --> 01:46:49,720
remove the ocean elements, which I think is fine.

2234
01:46:49,560 --> 01:46:51,840
Speaker 5: Just for like a little bit. Yeah, for like this, Yeah,

2235
01:46:51,920 --> 01:46:54,800
I mean, I like when's dungeons, it just needed like

2236
01:46:54,840 --> 01:46:56,520
two more of them, right, So that is a game

2237
01:46:56,560 --> 01:46:59,960
that would have really benefited from expansion of some kind. Yeah,

2238
01:47:00,000 --> 01:47:01,840
I think that would have been cool for sure for sure.

2239
01:47:02,479 --> 01:47:05,800
But love yeah, yeah, I don't know what some Usually

2240
01:47:05,880 --> 01:47:07,760
I'm not really a big fan of the kind of

2241
01:47:07,800 --> 01:47:12,800
expansion or DLC. I guess expansion is different, like if

2242
01:47:12,800 --> 01:47:15,000
it's like diobolo like to me, like, oh yeah, that

2243
01:47:15,039 --> 01:47:18,039
makes sense. Expansion for these from software games that makes sense,

2244
01:47:18,399 --> 01:47:20,199
even like Breath with a Lot, which I love, They're

2245
01:47:20,239 --> 01:47:22,600
like we added a car and like some new shrines,

2246
01:47:22,640 --> 01:47:22,960
I'm like.

2247
01:47:23,159 --> 01:47:24,039
Speaker 1: I don't do there.

2248
01:47:24,640 --> 01:47:27,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, you felt like another like almost a sequel, like

2249
01:47:28,039 --> 01:47:29,560
you were saying they have at the Eliza p thing

2250
01:47:29,560 --> 01:47:32,439
almost feel like like those, I'll play. But if it's

2251
01:47:32,479 --> 01:47:34,720
just like I don't. Here's a couple other things. I

2252
01:47:34,760 --> 01:47:35,399
never play those.

2253
01:47:36,359 --> 01:47:40,960
Speaker 1: I would, uh, like maybe DLC for the original Pokemon games,

2254
01:47:41,000 --> 01:47:43,199
for like Red and Blue, like I don't know, maybe

2255
01:47:43,199 --> 01:47:46,800
some more gym battles or something like that other Pokemon,

2256
01:47:47,960 --> 01:47:49,600
but specifically in that format.

2257
01:47:49,760 --> 01:47:52,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, but that's not what two were, like Scarlett like,

2258
01:47:52,800 --> 01:47:56,640
instead of doing like Pokemon Gray or like you know,

2259
01:47:56,680 --> 01:48:00,039
the Pokemon Yellow, they do do DLC and we get that,

2260
01:48:00,319 --> 01:48:03,840
and again I'm like, I can't imagine engaging with those things.

2261
01:48:03,880 --> 01:48:04,279
Speaker 1: I don't know.

2262
01:48:04,359 --> 01:48:06,600
Speaker 2: I think Twisted Metal could add. You know that that's

2263
01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:07,960
an easy one. Just introduce a new co.

2264
01:48:09,319 --> 01:48:13,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, thank you. Phil From Austin,

2265
01:48:14,560 --> 01:48:18,560
Simon writes in Hello Bombers, whenever you Midwest boys talk

2266
01:48:18,560 --> 01:48:21,800
about cold weather, it makes me realize how different our

2267
01:48:21,840 --> 01:48:24,800
countries are. On the last dumb truck. Dan mentioned it

2268
01:48:24,920 --> 01:48:28,600
warmed up to a brisk fifty degrees fahrenheit, which was

2269
01:48:28,600 --> 01:48:32,319
feeling warm. I'm in Perth, Australia, where our winter average

2270
01:48:32,439 --> 01:48:37,199
is about forty six to sixty five men max. It

2271
01:48:37,239 --> 01:48:41,119
will very rarely hit thirty to thirty five degrees fahrenheit overnight,

2272
01:48:41,359 --> 01:48:44,399
and when it does, it's big news. I genuinely cannot

2273
01:48:44,439 --> 01:48:47,119
comprehend the cold temperatures you guys go through over there,

2274
01:48:47,359 --> 01:48:50,600
though I hope to experience it one day. Always wanted

2275
01:48:50,640 --> 01:48:52,920
to have a snowy Christmas that I grew up with

2276
01:48:52,960 --> 01:48:55,399
in the movies instead of swaltering a sweltering hot one.

2277
01:48:55,720 --> 01:48:59,159
Is there anything you've heard about other another country's weather

2278
01:48:59,319 --> 01:49:01,880
or lifestyle that just blows your mind? How do you

2279
01:49:01,920 --> 01:49:04,439
guys fare in hot weather? Of course we have to

2280
01:49:04,479 --> 01:49:06,840
deal with hot summers that can be up to eighty

2281
01:49:06,880 --> 01:49:09,359
five two one hundred and ten degrees and much hotter

2282
01:49:09,479 --> 01:49:12,399
in rural towns that have a cracked one hundred and

2283
01:49:12,439 --> 01:49:15,479
twenty two degrees. Keep up the great content of the

2284
01:49:15,520 --> 01:49:18,920
site and Pod Simon. I can I can't fathom where

2285
01:49:18,920 --> 01:49:19,359
you all live.

2286
01:49:19,479 --> 01:49:22,359
Speaker 2: I mean I can do the only place that good

2287
01:49:22,560 --> 01:49:22,840
I was.

2288
01:49:22,760 --> 01:49:26,079
Speaker 3: Gonna say, the only place that really blows my mind

2289
01:49:26,239 --> 01:49:32,399
where people live is like the northwest Canadian territories or

2290
01:49:32,439 --> 01:49:37,399
places where like the winter is just like stuck at

2291
01:49:37,479 --> 01:49:41,760
negative fifty fahrenheit like for six months, and they're just

2292
01:49:41,800 --> 01:49:44,319
like it's called today and you're like, no, you're good.

2293
01:49:44,600 --> 01:49:48,039
How do you do it? I mean, I think that's amazing.

2294
01:49:48,279 --> 01:49:50,119
I mean, and then like the you know, there's like

2295
01:49:50,880 --> 01:49:54,399
other countries where it's just constantly you know, twelve months

2296
01:49:54,720 --> 01:50:00,840
of unbearable Russian winters and stuff like that. Everything else

2297
01:50:00,920 --> 01:50:03,359
I think makes sense. I guess I could see how

2298
01:50:03,399 --> 01:50:06,960
someone lives in you know, well I can't see how

2299
01:50:06,960 --> 01:50:08,399
someone lives in Florida, but I can see how someone

2300
01:50:08,399 --> 01:50:12,159
lives in Floridian weather right where, you know, it's just

2301
01:50:12,239 --> 01:50:13,199
like that all year round.

2302
01:50:13,279 --> 01:50:14,359
Speaker 1: I think it's so.

2303
01:50:16,479 --> 01:50:18,479
Speaker 3: You know, for me, it's like, I what much rather

2304
01:50:18,600 --> 01:50:21,479
be cold? Obviously, Like when it warmed up this weekend

2305
01:50:21,560 --> 01:50:23,920
and it was like sixty eight degrees, I get I

2306
01:50:23,960 --> 01:50:24,479
got mad.

2307
01:50:25,039 --> 01:50:27,960
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm sixty you know, it's great. Yeah,

2308
01:50:28,439 --> 01:50:29,159
I was just mad.

2309
01:50:29,199 --> 01:50:31,359
Speaker 3: I was like, oh it's a little warmer if I

2310
01:50:31,479 --> 01:50:35,600
know springs coming, I'm a little I'm a little you know,

2311
01:50:37,159 --> 01:50:40,199
just to see winter go in such a violent way.

2312
01:50:40,239 --> 01:50:41,920
Although I think we're going to get one more week

2313
01:50:41,920 --> 01:50:44,479
of like winter temperatures. Yeah, you know that.

2314
01:50:44,640 --> 01:50:45,239
Speaker 1: That's where I'm at.

2315
01:50:45,319 --> 01:50:47,159
Speaker 3: But people who live in these like because I love

2316
01:50:47,199 --> 01:50:49,199
watching videos of people who are like I have a

2317
01:50:49,239 --> 01:50:52,800
cabin in the northwestern Canadian territories that I can only

2318
01:50:52,880 --> 01:50:53,760
visit once.

2319
01:50:53,600 --> 01:50:54,680
Speaker 1: The river freezes.

2320
01:50:54,840 --> 01:50:57,119
Speaker 3: And when the river freezes, I take my snowmobile out

2321
01:50:57,199 --> 01:50:58,960
and I go out there and I have to burn

2322
01:50:59,239 --> 01:51:02,439
eleven trees every hour so that I'm survived. And I'm

2323
01:51:02,479 --> 01:51:04,600
just like your mother, Your motherfuckers are crazy.

2324
01:51:04,680 --> 01:51:06,920
Speaker 2: Hey, I could take this type of like Minnesota isn't

2325
01:51:06,920 --> 01:51:09,239
like Northwest Canada, col but you will have like long

2326
01:51:09,279 --> 01:51:11,680
stretches of negative twenty, negative thirty things like that. And

2327
01:51:11,760 --> 01:51:14,560
like the thing is you just if it's zero degrees,

2328
01:51:14,720 --> 01:51:17,319
you're not going outside. If it's negative twenty negative thirty,

2329
01:51:17,359 --> 01:51:19,840
it's not that different really, you know, unless you're working

2330
01:51:19,880 --> 01:51:21,359
outside or something. So it's just like no, you're just

2331
01:51:21,399 --> 01:51:23,039
kind of hunkered down. You just make it company in

2332
01:51:23,039 --> 01:51:25,199
the house and everything. And I could take that, even

2333
01:51:25,199 --> 01:51:26,760
though it is a long winter here and it gets

2334
01:51:26,880 --> 01:51:29,359
very cold, I would take that over a place that

2335
01:51:29,399 --> 01:51:33,800
gets like regularly over one hundred and humid, Like I

2336
01:51:33,800 --> 01:51:36,640
I can't do like super hot, Like I'm not a

2337
01:51:36,680 --> 01:51:39,680
fan of that. Like it gets to the mid nineties here,

2338
01:51:40,000 --> 01:51:41,720
Like maybe you'll have a day or two that's like

2339
01:51:41,800 --> 01:51:44,960
hits one hundred and that's just miserable outside. I can't

2340
01:51:44,960 --> 01:51:47,520
imagine regularly sweating through that, you know.

2341
01:51:48,600 --> 01:51:51,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, when I went to Japan two years ago, it

2342
01:51:51,840 --> 01:51:54,720
was like during the summer and it was super duper humid.

2343
01:51:54,920 --> 01:51:58,119
I didn't realize I could sweat in that many places. Yeah,

2344
01:51:58,119 --> 01:51:59,000
it's kind of amazing.

2345
01:51:59,159 --> 01:52:01,359
Speaker 2: It sucks up your clothes and fucks up the smell,

2346
01:52:01,479 --> 01:52:03,199
and like cold is a pain in the ass. You

2347
01:52:03,199 --> 01:52:04,840
got to put on all these layers and everything, but

2348
01:52:04,840 --> 01:52:06,520
it's like your clothes aren't like fucked up. When you

2349
01:52:06,600 --> 01:52:08,359
get back home, you know, you just kind of warm

2350
01:52:08,439 --> 01:52:10,800
up and you're not like dealing with the after effects

2351
01:52:10,840 --> 01:52:11,680
of it as much, you know.

2352
01:52:12,720 --> 01:52:18,920
Speaker 1: Mm hmmmmmmm. All right, moving along here, Matt writ sin

2353
01:52:19,640 --> 01:52:21,560
with a little tip for folks at home. If you're

2354
01:52:21,560 --> 01:52:24,800
a Premium subscriber, Hey, duoters, just wanted to thank you

2355
01:52:24,840 --> 01:52:26,720
for taking the time to explain how to use the

2356
01:52:26,800 --> 01:52:29,720
RSS feed. Recently, I might be in the minority, but

2357
01:52:29,800 --> 01:52:33,279
I prefer watching GB content on my TV because y'all

2358
01:52:33,279 --> 01:52:35,920
deserve the biggest and best screen in the house.

2359
01:52:36,239 --> 01:52:36,479
Speaker 2: Wow.

2360
01:52:36,520 --> 01:52:38,960
Speaker 1: Thanks, and for me, YouTube is the easiest and most

2361
01:52:38,960 --> 01:52:42,319
preferred method of watching your videos. However, as a premium member,

2362
01:52:42,560 --> 01:52:46,079
this has one distinct disadvantage. The amazing premium content is

2363
01:52:46,199 --> 01:52:49,640
essentially locked to my tablet or phone. Now, with a

2364
01:52:49,680 --> 01:52:52,520
power of the RSS feed, I have the Premium video

2365
01:52:52,560 --> 01:52:55,239
feed loaded onto my podcast app and I can now

2366
01:52:55,239 --> 01:52:57,000
stream it to my TV from my phone.

2367
01:52:57,159 --> 01:52:57,239
Speaker 3: Now.

2368
01:52:57,279 --> 01:53:00,039
Speaker 1: I understand that this is probably common knowledge for a

2369
01:53:00,039 --> 01:53:03,000
lot of subscribers, but for me, it's a Eureka moment

2370
01:53:03,079 --> 01:53:05,800
of the century. So thanks again for explaining the miracle

2371
01:53:05,960 --> 01:53:08,239
of modern science to us all. Now you'll have to

2372
01:53:08,279 --> 01:53:11,239
excuse me because it's time to watch some Marry Me Tomadaci.

2373
01:53:11,640 --> 01:53:15,159
Thanks again, and fuck Ice Matt Matt. Here you go,

2374
01:53:15,840 --> 01:53:18,680
you two at home. If your premium subscriber can watch

2375
01:53:19,439 --> 01:53:23,680
Marry Me Tomadacci, a new episode of nine lives on

2376
01:53:24,039 --> 01:53:27,720
your television screen by using the RSS feed, very easy

2377
01:53:27,760 --> 01:53:31,600
to use. I would just add like that's I would

2378
01:53:31,640 --> 01:53:33,800
love to have a way for that to not always

2379
01:53:33,800 --> 01:53:36,520
be the case where you don't have to maguy way

2380
01:53:36,600 --> 01:53:39,159
to do it, so it's, you know, just just if

2381
01:53:39,199 --> 01:53:41,479
it helps you feel any better. It's something we are

2382
01:53:41,600 --> 01:53:44,279
always thinking about, how do we make that better? Always

2383
01:53:44,319 --> 01:53:46,399
thinking about I'm gonna need you boys to look at

2384
01:53:46,399 --> 01:53:49,279
a picture here that I've pasted in the email or

2385
01:53:49,680 --> 01:53:53,760
I reckon this. Yeah, yes, Matt from Massachusetts, raight say

2386
01:53:54,000 --> 01:53:57,479
howdy bombers. With PAX East on the horizon, I wanted

2387
01:53:57,479 --> 01:54:00,920
to ask you all, what is the strangest booth you've

2388
01:54:00,960 --> 01:54:03,960
ever seen at a convention? For me, it has to

2389
01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:07,960
be the booth for Kadella Gaming at PAS East twenty

2390
01:54:08,079 --> 01:54:11,520
twenty four. The booth itself was just a larger medallion

2391
01:54:11,600 --> 01:54:14,359
you would walk up to scan your badge for a

2392
01:54:14,439 --> 01:54:17,479
chance to win a prize. No real games were actually shown.

2393
01:54:18,079 --> 01:54:20,399
Turns out it was a stealth campaign for a gaming

2394
01:54:20,439 --> 01:54:24,840
section of an upcoming Saudi Arabian city. I've attached the

2395
01:54:24,920 --> 01:54:27,039
picture of the actual booth. Have a great day, Matt

2396
01:54:27,039 --> 01:54:28,039
from Massachusetts.

2397
01:54:28,079 --> 01:54:30,159
Speaker 2: Didn't we shoot something there like we were doing like

2398
01:54:30,319 --> 01:54:32,720
a tour? Did that actually work up in the trialog?

2399
01:54:32,800 --> 01:54:33,640
Or did we just shoot something?

2400
01:54:33,880 --> 01:54:37,319
Speaker 5: Mightn't the same booth like at the games Calm we

2401
01:54:37,319 --> 01:54:39,079
were at. I feel like I remember it.

2402
01:54:39,520 --> 01:54:42,720
Speaker 2: Maybe no, no man did No Xbox had a thing

2403
01:54:42,720 --> 01:54:45,039
where you'd get coins and stuff like that and scan

2404
01:54:45,159 --> 01:54:46,279
your coins for prizes.

2405
01:54:47,039 --> 01:54:48,800
Speaker 1: I think this was there too, maybe.

2406
01:54:49,199 --> 01:54:50,479
Speaker 2: I mean that would have been like the same year.

2407
01:54:50,600 --> 01:54:53,159
I mean that would have tracked Oh right, that was air.

2408
01:54:53,279 --> 01:54:57,039
Speaker 1: I remember this, Yeah, this gigantic medallion and Dan I

2409
01:54:57,039 --> 01:55:00,359
think you and Nikky went up to investigate and we

2410
01:55:00,439 --> 01:55:01,880
came with no answers. Yeah.

2411
01:55:01,960 --> 01:55:04,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was something shady and weird for sure.

2412
01:55:05,000 --> 01:55:07,520
Speaker 1: I think one of the weirdest booths was probably uh

2413
01:55:07,960 --> 01:55:11,239
one of these. It was probably g fuel at the time,

2414
01:55:12,319 --> 01:55:15,720
just like having booth babes and booth dudes like gyrating

2415
01:55:15,760 --> 01:55:17,680
and dancing to an floor.

2416
01:55:17,800 --> 01:55:18,319
Speaker 2: I remember that.

2417
01:55:18,520 --> 01:55:20,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was always weird, like because like that used

2418
01:55:20,920 --> 01:55:22,199
to be the norm, and then there was a few

2419
01:55:22,239 --> 01:55:25,000
were like we're still doing that, and they always stuck

2420
01:55:25,039 --> 01:55:25,960
out like a sort thumb.

2421
01:55:26,199 --> 01:55:29,520
Speaker 2: I remember probably like six or something. I mean I

2422
01:55:29,640 --> 01:55:32,039
was I was deep in the booth babe era of

2423
01:55:32,079 --> 01:55:34,840
E three. I remember going to like the fringes of

2424
01:55:35,119 --> 01:55:37,520
you know, maybe Kensha Hall or something like that, and

2425
01:55:37,560 --> 01:55:40,600
there was just a fucking like peripheral company was selling

2426
01:55:40,680 --> 01:55:44,920
like GameCube peripherals or whatever, like shitty controllers, and they

2427
01:55:45,279 --> 01:55:47,319
something about like a fox was their logo or their

2428
01:55:47,359 --> 01:55:50,680
name or something. And so they had a bouncy castle

2429
01:55:51,079 --> 01:55:52,800
in the middle of the Kentsha Hall or whatever or

2430
01:55:52,840 --> 01:55:57,000
not on the fringes. They had a bunch of women

2431
01:55:57,279 --> 01:56:00,760
in there and not a lot of clothes thing, and

2432
01:56:00,800 --> 01:56:06,119
they pinned foxtails above their butts there, and they had

2433
01:56:06,119 --> 01:56:08,720
these girls and they had fox ears on and they

2434
01:56:08,720 --> 01:56:12,760
were bouncing around and there was a massive line of

2435
01:56:12,880 --> 01:56:15,520
weird dudes waiting to get in there. And you could

2436
01:56:15,560 --> 01:56:16,960
take your turn to go in there and try to

2437
01:56:16,960 --> 01:56:20,000
grab the foxtails off the girls butts. Oh that's terrible

2438
01:56:20,119 --> 01:56:21,760
for GameCube controller company.

2439
01:56:21,800 --> 01:56:22,439
Speaker 1: I don't get it.

2440
01:56:22,520 --> 01:56:27,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I don't know. Big line, biggest line. Yeah,

2441
01:56:27,760 --> 01:56:30,800
Oh that was that Air one mid two thousands, e

2442
01:56:30,840 --> 01:56:31,840
threes or something else.

2443
01:56:31,920 --> 01:56:32,720
Speaker 1: Okay.

2444
01:56:33,560 --> 01:56:38,760
Speaker 3: When I used to go to CEES, I would always

2445
01:56:39,680 --> 01:56:42,479
have about a half a day to myself where I

2446
01:56:42,479 --> 01:56:47,000
would wander the various show floors. If you've never been

2447
01:56:47,039 --> 01:56:50,560
to CEES and you're aware of what like an E

2448
01:56:50,680 --> 01:56:57,439
three or a uh, you know, packs the size of

2449
01:56:57,479 --> 01:57:02,239
that is like Cees makes is like the cost go

2450
01:57:02,520 --> 01:57:05,079
to those seven elevens, Like I just can't even like

2451
01:57:05,840 --> 01:57:08,760
begin to describe to you just how enormous the Yes,

2452
01:57:08,960 --> 01:57:12,600
they have cheap dogs at ces I don't know, I've

2453
01:57:12,640 --> 01:57:16,119
never had a hot dog, so I think. So what's

2454
01:57:16,159 --> 01:57:18,880
crazy is like you would always find these like booths

2455
01:57:18,920 --> 01:57:21,720
were like or you're just like, I don't think this

2456
01:57:21,760 --> 01:57:25,199
company understood the assignment, Like I don't think they like

2457
01:57:25,399 --> 01:57:27,640
realized what they were supposed to do here, and you

2458
01:57:27,640 --> 01:57:30,319
would always like find these like weird little fringy things

2459
01:57:30,600 --> 01:57:30,920
and you'd be.

2460
01:57:31,000 --> 01:57:33,000
Speaker 1: Like, whyn't they they do? What are they in this

2461
01:57:33,119 --> 01:57:35,520
hall for? They they sell? It's it's wild.

2462
01:57:36,560 --> 01:57:38,760
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think like that was like the golden

2463
01:57:38,760 --> 01:57:43,079
era of just like the most inappropriate uh booth And

2464
01:57:43,119 --> 01:57:45,680
you would sort of like you almost went around looking

2465
01:57:45,720 --> 01:57:48,560
for things for content because of just how like out

2466
01:57:48,560 --> 01:57:50,960
of place and sort of like uh, you know, kind

2467
01:57:51,000 --> 01:57:55,399
of bizarre things were. But I yeah, I don't miss

2468
01:57:55,439 --> 01:57:58,680
that life that much and having a prop up a

2469
01:57:58,720 --> 01:58:01,319
booth that you're not too ber confident and it's got

2470
01:58:01,319 --> 01:58:03,439
to be a rough, a rough couple of days.

2471
01:58:03,560 --> 01:58:05,960
Speaker 5: Jan Jan Jeff Grubs and chat and wants to know

2472
01:58:05,960 --> 01:58:07,840
where he should go for tacos.

2473
01:58:08,439 --> 01:58:12,600
Speaker 1: Well, don't go near Moscone. Leave Moscone. Just go to

2474
01:58:12,720 --> 01:58:19,560
Valencia taco specifically, there's so many places. Just go to

2475
01:58:19,560 --> 01:58:22,640
the Valencia area and then the first, like Tucker, you see,

2476
01:58:22,880 --> 01:58:27,760
it'll be Britas. I'm sorry again, Oh burritos. Oh god,

2479
01:58:39,119 --> 01:58:41,560
El far Alito. I don't fuck with El far Alito

2480
01:58:41,600 --> 01:58:43,359

01:59:14,159 --> 01:59:16,319
store and the cheesecake factory.

2490
01:59:16,560 --> 01:59:20,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right there in factory Jeff and I love.

2491

2493
01:59:26,359 --> 01:59:29,119
that cheesecake matter Dan, Dan and I went to some

2494
01:59:29,159 --> 01:59:34,640
weird tourist trap like a bar based around the railcar

2495
01:59:34,720 --> 01:59:41,000
thing right after that was fine, Yeah, yeah, that weird bar.

2496
01:59:41,239 --> 01:59:44,319
Speaker 2: He's Joint is the place to showed Mike Tommy's Joint.

2497
01:59:44,319 --> 01:59:45,239
That was one of my main plas.

2498
01:59:46,119 --> 01:59:49,399
Speaker 5: Yes, Tommy's Joint was really good. And then I mean,

2499
01:59:49,560 --> 01:59:52,159
how far away was the tiki Bari went to from Union.

2500
01:59:51,880 --> 01:59:56,039
Speaker 2: Square Smuggler's Cove that I would say, yeah.

2501
01:59:55,920 --> 01:59:59,000
Speaker 5: Go to Smutler's Cove. I love that man.

2502
01:59:59,359 --> 02:00:02,479
Speaker 1: But Chris, what I would suggest go to Chinatown if

2503
02:00:02,520 --> 02:00:06,479
you're specifically around Union Square. Chinatown isn't super far. You'll

2504
02:00:06,479 --> 02:00:10,000
get great dim sum, great Chinese food, great Vietnamese food,

2505
02:00:10,239 --> 02:00:13,520
and then go or specifically go fuck what is it

2506
02:00:13,560 --> 02:00:17,600
called Nan King something some of the best fucking Chinese

2507
02:00:17,640 --> 02:00:20,359
food I've ever had. But also go to the LiPo

2508
02:00:20,439 --> 02:00:23,560
Lounge and get the best Mi tie you'll ever have.

2509
02:00:24,520 --> 02:00:28,800
They it's cash only. Go there and get inee briated

2510
02:00:29,239 --> 02:00:31,199
and get into a fight in an alley. That's what

2511
02:00:31,239 --> 02:00:33,000
I used to do all the time in my early twenties.

2512
02:00:33,079 --> 02:00:36,560
So Mike does King House of Nan King is what

2513
02:00:36,560 --> 02:00:38,119
it was that there you go, he said.

2514
02:00:38,920 --> 02:00:41,479
Speaker 5: Jeff says, this hotel's across from that cable car bar.

2515
02:00:41,600 --> 02:00:43,359
Oh that's fine. He had a burrito lest night a

2516
02:00:43,399 --> 02:00:46,479
Chinatown that was nine dollars and it tasted exactly like

2517
02:00:46,560 --> 02:00:47,000
Taco Bell.

2518
02:00:47,199 --> 02:00:51,000
Speaker 1: That was good. Then grub Actually go to La Tuckeria.

2519
02:00:51,640 --> 02:00:54,800
You'll enjoy the burrito. It will be amazing that.

2520
02:00:55,039 --> 02:00:56,600
Speaker 2: It was always a crowd pleaser when I was on

2521
02:00:56,640 --> 02:00:58,560
the West Coast when I would talk about how like, yeah,

2522
02:00:58,560 --> 02:01:00,720
Mission burritos are good, but I and I do prefer

2523
02:01:00,760 --> 02:01:05,319
the Taco Bell burritos, and oh boy, yeah, oh.

2524
02:01:05,199 --> 02:01:08,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah yeah, I'll do that for the next time

2525
02:01:08,199 --> 02:01:09,560
I have to ski up the podcast.

2526
02:01:11,199 --> 02:01:16,920
Speaker 1: I almost flipped my whole desk, but I know, I know,

2527
02:01:17,079 --> 02:01:21,119
I know, I know. It just hurts to me. Okay,

2528
02:01:21,159 --> 02:01:23,920
moving on. Last email of the show because I have

2529
02:01:23,960 --> 02:01:27,920
to go decompress now comes from ev May. I've turned

2530
02:01:28,039 --> 02:01:30,640
to the discord and no one has figured this out yet.

2531
02:01:30,920 --> 02:01:33,399
So I've had this track in my head for the

2532
02:01:33,479 --> 02:01:36,560
last few days and cannot figure out what it is.

2533
02:01:37,159 --> 02:01:41,119
I've scoured my listening history and TV slash movies I've

2534
02:01:41,119 --> 02:01:44,479
seen lately, cannot figure it out, so I tried to

2535
02:01:44,600 --> 02:01:50,199
create it in garage band. No, I don't remember any words. Yes, yeah,

2536
02:01:50,319 --> 02:01:52,239
I'm sorry. Finished. I don't remember the any words or

2537
02:01:52,239 --> 02:01:54,279
even the melody, the vocals, just this little loop? Is

2538
02:01:54,319 --> 02:01:59,079

2543
02:02:10,199 --> 02:02:24,520
if we can help ev May out.

2544
02:02:29,920 --> 02:02:34,359
Speaker 2: It's good. I think it's like Kon was like like

2545
02:02:34,399 --> 02:02:37,279
a eighties kind of pop sent thing.

2546
02:02:38,720 --> 02:02:42,359

2552
02:03:11,039 --> 02:03:16,880
Speaker 1: Uh huh, I don't know. Yeah. I I didn't listen

2553
02:03:16,920 --> 02:03:19,720
to it and prior to the show because I was

2554
02:03:19,760 --> 02:03:22,239
hoping it would just be a goof. But it seems

2555
02:03:22,239 --> 02:03:23,199
like a legitimate ask.

2556
02:03:23,600 --> 02:03:24,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know. I got nothing.

2557
02:03:26,479 --> 02:03:30,520
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know if we were really expected no offense, Mike.

2558
02:03:30,680 --> 02:03:33,760
Speaker 1: It was just whoa you can know what? Boy?

2559
02:03:33,800 --> 02:03:37,079
Speaker 5: When while when Dan showed me pop Star, He's like, Oh,

2560
02:03:37,239 --> 02:03:40,760
it'll be so funny if artist shows up, if we

2561
02:03:40,880 --> 02:03:42,760
make Mike say if he knows it or not. I

2562
02:03:42,800 --> 02:03:44,800
was like, all right, and then of course I knew

2563
02:03:44,800 --> 02:03:45,880
all of them because they're very.

2564
02:03:45,760 --> 02:03:47,439
Speaker 2: Oh you didn't know all of them, you do, like

2565
02:03:47,920 --> 02:03:49,600
Mariah Carey and Ringo.

2566
02:03:49,479 --> 02:03:53,199

2568
02:03:55,920 --> 02:03:56,319

Speaker 1: You know them.

2570
02:03:56,880 --> 02:03:58,680

02:05:26,760 --> 02:05:30,079
If you have anything specific to say to anyone's or whatever,

2601
02:05:30,399 --> 02:05:34,560
I will try and forward that over. Mister Manatti. Do

2602
02:05:34,600 --> 02:05:37,159
we got any YouTube super chests? Yes?

2603
02:05:37,439 --> 02:05:40,479
Speaker 5: Uh migsy, says Mike Manaudi. Is there a new Sega

2604
02:05:40,840 --> 02:05:42,560
Dreamcast calendar this year?

2605
02:05:42,600 --> 02:05:43,239
Speaker 1: No? Last year.

2606
02:05:43,279 --> 02:05:47,399
Speaker 5: I had my Sega hardware calendar. They didn't make a

2607
02:05:47,439 --> 02:05:49,600
new fun one this year that I saw, so I'm

2608
02:05:49,600 --> 02:05:52,760
actually just using the annual past order calendar I got

2609
02:05:52,800 --> 02:05:55,119
from Disney. So that right there is that's the orange Bird.

2610
02:05:55,680 --> 02:05:57,960
He was a kind of mascot created by Disney and

2611
02:05:58,039 --> 02:06:02,479
the State of Florida to promote the orange farming industry.

2612
02:06:02,720 --> 02:06:06,279
So that's the orangebird. They're harvesting some oranges. That's what

2613
02:06:06,359 --> 02:06:09,960
I got from March at the moment. Uh, mixy, says

2614
02:06:10,039 --> 02:06:12,159
Dan Reikert. Have you watched Bill and Ted yet?

2615
02:06:12,279 --> 02:06:12,319
Speaker 1: No?

2616
02:06:12,479 --> 02:06:15,520
Speaker 2: I have not watching Phantom Threat tonight, which I've heard

2617
02:06:15,560 --> 02:06:16,640
is very similar.

2618
02:06:16,880 --> 02:06:19,399
Speaker 5: Very similar movie. Yeah, yeah, I think Napoleon's and both

2619
02:06:19,439 --> 02:06:25,560
of them. Steven Beatty says, first part here, you're coming

2620
02:06:25,680 --> 02:06:28,760
up on a year of Giant bomb independence. I bought

2621
02:06:28,760 --> 02:06:32,039
a year there and then when you nust it at PAX.

2622
02:06:32,119 --> 02:06:34,920
What I like to know is what's the monthly or yearly?

2623
02:06:35,159 --> 02:06:37,479
Don't give me, Oh, we appreciate your support, tell me

2624
02:06:37,520 --> 02:06:43,720
what you prefer you cours, because I fucking love you guys, Smith.

2625
02:06:43,720 --> 02:06:45,159
Speaker 2: We prefer right.

2626
02:06:46,359 --> 02:06:50,439
Speaker 3: I mean, well, if the question is what gives us

2627
02:06:50,479 --> 02:06:52,840
more money, the answer is monthly.

2628
02:06:54,079 --> 02:06:57,600
Speaker 1: And you and just paying monthly indefinitely. Uh.

2629
02:06:57,640 --> 02:07:01,840
Speaker 3: That is the just transparent answer. So if that's what

2630
02:07:01,960 --> 02:07:04,720
the If that's the answer you're looking for, there it is.

2631
02:07:06,000 --> 02:07:09,359
But however you wish to support is more than appreciate it.

2632
02:07:09,479 --> 02:07:12,600
Speaker 5: There you go, Mixy's back with a few here, Jan

2633
02:07:12,720 --> 02:07:16,640
Will the Giant bomb packs be recorded premium? Question mark?

2634
02:07:17,720 --> 02:07:23,680
Speaker 1: Generally we we will grab the stream and flip that around,

2635
02:07:23,800 --> 02:07:28,520
so most and not just premium, those usually free? Yeah, everyone, Yeah.

2636
02:07:28,319 --> 02:07:31,840
Speaker 3: I gotta I gotta ask our our friends there. But

2637
02:07:31,960 --> 02:07:35,439
I believe they are recorded regardless.

2638
02:07:35,760 --> 02:07:38,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, the maybe main staged one may be a little

2639
02:07:38,880 --> 02:07:40,720
bit of a challenge, but I think they should be

2640
02:07:40,760 --> 02:07:42,600
equipped to record that for us as well.

2641
02:07:43,159 --> 02:07:46,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a there's a different wrinkle to the whole

2642
02:07:46,359 --> 02:07:49,439
thing this year that will learn when we get there,

2643
02:07:49,479 --> 02:07:51,800
and we'll message out how that's gonna work for streaming.

2644
02:07:52,640 --> 02:07:57,600
Speaker 5: Uh. Next up, Migsy asks Jeff Backler, will you ever

2645
02:07:57,760 --> 02:08:03,319
green light the wolf for GBS. I'm sorry what I

2646
02:08:03,319 --> 02:08:06,479
thought you would know? The wolf for Game Boy I

2647
02:08:06,479 --> 02:08:08,079
assume GBC means game.

2648
02:08:07,880 --> 02:08:13,840
Speaker 1: Boy Color game. I don't know what that is, Sadly,

2649
02:08:14,239 --> 02:08:16,479
I'm sorry. Okay, the wolf.

2650
02:08:16,680 --> 02:08:19,199
Speaker 5: It sounded like you will not green light the wolf

2651
02:08:19,319 --> 02:08:20,359
for game Boy Color.

2652
02:08:20,439 --> 02:08:22,560
Speaker 1: Then are you're saying wolf?

2653
02:08:22,680 --> 02:08:22,840
Speaker 5: Right?

2654
02:08:23,479 --> 02:08:27,079
Speaker 1: W O l F the wolf? Okay? I was hearing wolf,

2655
02:08:27,319 --> 02:08:28,199

2656
02:08:29,079 --> 02:08:30,880
Speaker 5: I was in I was in a speech class work

2657
02:08:30,920 --> 02:08:34,199

2658
02:08:34,199 --> 02:08:34,680

2659
02:08:38,520 --> 02:08:45,760
Speaker 1: Was okay? Somebody asked about Dune soon? Yes, okay, we'll

02:08:45,760 --> 02:08:48,079

2661
02:08:48,920 --> 02:08:52,560
so right, okay, sorry, man just made me think of that.

2662
02:08:53,359 --> 02:08:57,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, I don't I haven't seen any clarification in

2663
02:08:57,479 --> 02:09:00,960
chat about what the wolf can.

2664
02:09:00,920 --> 02:09:03,279
Speaker 3: Be be more specific. I feel bad chatter.

2665
02:09:03,359 --> 02:09:03,840
Speaker 1: I don't know.

2666
02:09:03,920 --> 02:09:06,399
Speaker 5: It's okay, Bigs has got another one here, Peeps is

2667
02:09:06,479 --> 02:09:08,239
done worth watching? Is it complete?

2668
02:09:08,279 --> 02:09:13,640
Speaker 1: Now? Mike? Can you do your best Dune? Yell?

2669
02:09:13,760 --> 02:09:15,399
Speaker 2: Microphone is gonna get so fucked up?

2670
02:09:15,439 --> 02:09:18,159
Speaker 1: Are people? Are people gonna say it's racist or something?

2671
02:09:18,239 --> 02:09:18,680
I do it.

2672
02:09:19,880 --> 02:09:21,760
Speaker 2: I guess we'll find out depending on how you.

2673
02:09:21,720 --> 02:09:22,840
Speaker 1: Do it, all right.

2674
02:09:23,720 --> 02:09:26,119
Speaker 5: I've always seen like that one do movie one time?

2675
02:09:26,399 --> 02:09:28,000
Can you play it against yes?

2676
02:09:28,079 --> 02:09:34,720
Speaker 1: Yes, oh that sounds racist?

2677
02:09:35,880 --> 02:09:36,079
Speaker 5: Yeah?

2678
02:09:36,239 --> 02:09:39,000
Speaker 1: Do it? Can you do it as a panel? Then

2679
02:09:39,840 --> 02:09:42,359
I do it now for you. I'll do it because

2680
02:09:42,520 --> 02:09:44,840
now Dan's right. I'm scared that it's gonna get eaten

2681
02:09:44,880 --> 02:09:54,079
up by your microphone. It won't beautiful, no, no, no,

2682
02:09:54,119 --> 02:09:56,439
but it's great. It was perfect. Go watch Dune. I

2683
02:09:56,520 --> 02:09:57,359
like Dune Part two.

2684
02:09:57,640 --> 02:09:59,520
Speaker 2: I like I like them both. I think I prefer

2685
02:09:59,560 --> 02:10:00,479
the first one a little more.

2686
02:10:01,840 --> 02:10:04,560
Speaker 1: Dave Batista is getting acting work, and I support anything

2687
02:10:04,600 --> 02:10:07,359
that man is in. Yeah, feel bad.

2688
02:10:07,199 --> 02:10:09,359
Speaker 5: For everyone in Doom. Seems like it sucks to be

2689
02:10:09,439 --> 02:10:10,399
in the Dune worlds.

2690
02:10:10,840 --> 02:10:14,359
Speaker 1: That's all right, it's not real. Don't worry, just like

2691
02:10:14,439 --> 02:10:15,600
a real.

2692
02:10:16,920 --> 02:10:20,600
Speaker 5: But Mike on Drum says, then Mike sez he will

2693
02:10:20,640 --> 02:10:23,319
Requiem story expansion ounce. I did not see that. I

2694
02:10:23,359 --> 02:10:25,800
looked into it, so yeah, he just like said it's coming.

2695
02:10:26,279 --> 02:10:30,800
Uh the director, here's play that. Well, that's the So

2696
02:10:30,920 --> 02:10:32,960
all the Resident Evil games, they always get some kind

2697
02:10:32,960 --> 02:10:35,479
of dealc. As much as I love them, I never

2698
02:10:35,560 --> 02:10:39,479
play those. It's sometimes you hear like there's some of

2699
02:10:39,479 --> 02:10:42,039
them are good. Yeah, there's a Residval seventy one where

2700
02:10:42,039 --> 02:10:44,640
your grandpa who punches people. That's supposed to be good.

2701
02:10:44,720 --> 02:10:47,399
Speaker 2: Speaking of that, let me ask the chat right now, because, uh,

2702
02:10:47,560 --> 02:10:50,680
because Grub is out tomorrow. Unfortunately, I'm not gonna be

2703
02:10:50,720 --> 02:10:53,079
able to start my blight club. But since I've got something,

2704
02:10:53,119 --> 02:10:55,039
I'm looking down the barrel with something tough, I get

2705
02:10:55,039 --> 02:10:57,960
to play a d light club. So I was gonna

2706
02:10:57,960 --> 02:11:01,079
play Beautiful Joe too, because I've never played it quick

2707
02:11:01,159 --> 02:11:04,039
in formal to no, because I remember I think I

2708
02:11:04,039 --> 02:11:05,600
didn't get as good reviews to the first one. I

2709
02:11:05,640 --> 02:11:08,039
love the first one, but would people rather see me

2710
02:11:08,079 --> 02:11:12,039
play that reson seven DLC where You're a bunch of alligators?

2711
02:11:12,199 --> 02:11:15,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I think that that's.

2712
02:11:14,960 --> 02:11:17,199
Speaker 2: I'm curious about that. So maybe I'll call an audible

2713
02:11:17,279 --> 02:11:20,359
so disregard to the schedule. Changed something there?

2714
02:11:21,399 --> 02:11:23,000
Speaker 1: I like that, swap it?

2715
02:11:23,079 --> 02:11:25,560
Speaker 2: Ok, okay, maybe I won't play that.

2716
02:11:26,680 --> 02:11:29,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I've heard mixed things about the Rose

2717
02:11:29,399 --> 02:11:33,640
DLC for a fine, it's fine, I love it, And

2718
02:11:33,680 --> 02:11:36,199
then like four has separate ways of course, and that's

2719
02:11:36,279 --> 02:11:39,399
that's good. So I wonder what this will be. I

2720
02:11:39,439 --> 02:11:40,880
don't know if you guys have noticed, but like all

2721
02:11:40,880 --> 02:11:43,720
the the resident evil fandom is in a tizzy because

2722
02:11:44,239 --> 02:11:47,039
really you could see you can see Leon's got a

2723
02:11:47,039 --> 02:11:49,840
wedding ring maybe, and everyone's all like, well, who the

2724
02:11:49,960 --> 02:11:51,239
fuck is he married to?

2725
02:11:51,800 --> 02:11:55,439
Speaker 1: So maybe that are they mad that Leon isn't married

2726
02:11:55,520 --> 02:11:57,319
to them? Well, some of them are that.

2727
02:11:57,279 --> 02:11:59,439
Speaker 5: And then some of them have very specific ideas about

2728
02:11:59,439 --> 02:12:02,800
who he should be married too, and then they fight

2729
02:12:02,840 --> 02:12:06,439
with other people who do. But what if well, some

2730
02:12:06,479 --> 02:12:09,439
people want some people want that. Some people what Claire.

2731
02:12:09,560 --> 02:12:12,159
Some people wanted to be characters that you knew when

2732
02:12:12,159 --> 02:12:13,880
they were children, and other people are like, that's weird,

2733
02:12:13,880 --> 02:12:14,279
don't do.

2734
02:12:14,319 --> 02:12:18,800
Speaker 3: That, And yeah, that's kind of weird that it's good

2735
02:12:18,800 --> 02:12:21,920
that these people exist, because I do need to like

2736
02:12:22,279 --> 02:12:23,600
envy people's problem.

2737
02:12:24,079 --> 02:12:27,000
Speaker 1: You know what you think? People said? If I start

2738
02:12:27,039 --> 02:12:29,520
wearing a wedding ring and I just don't tell anyone.

2739
02:12:29,239 --> 02:12:30,760
Speaker 2: It's a good bit. Yeah, it's a good bit.

2740
02:12:31,000 --> 02:12:33,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, people, there there'll be threads like, oh, yeah, who's

2741
02:12:34,000 --> 02:12:36,199
Jane's married to the streets. That's who he's married to.

2742
02:12:36,479 --> 02:12:37,319
That's right back.

2743
02:12:39,000 --> 02:12:42,920
Speaker 3: Exactly, I think, Yeah, man, to have those problems, what

2744
02:12:43,000 --> 02:12:44,640
a dream?

2745
02:12:44,920 --> 02:12:45,119
Speaker 7: You know?

2746
02:12:45,479 --> 02:12:46,039
Speaker 3: Uh?

2747
02:12:46,159 --> 02:12:48,039
Speaker 1: I feel bad. I didn't get to talk about Resident Evil.

2748
02:12:48,119 --> 02:12:50,039
Well we talked about in the review, but.

2749
02:12:50,479 --> 02:12:52,600
Speaker 3: I was I was a little sticky poo last week,

2750
02:12:52,760 --> 02:12:55,079
so I didn't. I didn't get to talk to It's good, Okay,

2751
02:12:55,399 --> 02:12:55,920
you should do it.

2752
02:12:55,920 --> 02:12:56,520
Speaker 1: Spoiler cast.

2753
02:12:56,600 --> 02:13:01,159
Speaker 5: Sometimes I want to maybe talk about Yeah.

2754
02:12:59,800 --> 02:13:03,079
Speaker 3: So okay, let's unpack that just for a wee minute here.

2755
02:13:03,199 --> 02:13:06,159
When you talk about it's just story spoilers, like.

2756
02:13:06,119 --> 02:13:08,920
Speaker 5: Mechanical things, like some things that happens towards the end

2757
02:13:08,920 --> 02:13:12,399
the game, right, like because there's some surprises, some mechanical stuff,

2758
02:13:12,479 --> 02:13:14,840
or just like this section of the game at the end,

2759
02:13:15,000 --> 02:13:16,840
like in where it takes place.

2760
02:13:17,880 --> 02:13:21,000
Speaker 3: I think Resident Evils probably like a top five series

2761
02:13:21,000 --> 02:13:23,039
of all time for me, like without a doubt.

2762
02:13:23,199 --> 02:13:27,439
Speaker 1: Yet I know maybe seven percent of the lore.

2763
02:13:27,840 --> 02:13:30,199
Speaker 3: It just doesn't resonate with me in a way that

2764
02:13:30,399 --> 02:13:34,640
means anything. So I have that interesting kind of like

2765
02:13:34,720 --> 02:13:37,640
relationship with the series. But uh but yeah, okay, I

2766
02:13:37,640 --> 02:13:42,119
feel like if I had every little story.

2767
02:13:40,840 --> 02:13:44,239
Speaker 1: Beat spoiled to me in front of Requiem, it would

2768
02:13:44,279 --> 02:13:45,439
have changed.

2769
02:13:45,520 --> 02:13:46,439
Speaker 2: Absolutely not for me.

2770
02:13:46,520 --> 02:13:49,760
Speaker 1: Yeah right. I don't agree with this chat that I

2771
02:13:49,800 --> 02:13:52,800
see here saying that Ada is out of his league. Ada,

2772
02:13:53,159 --> 02:13:55,079
A'm so lucky to be.

2773
02:13:56,279 --> 02:14:00,039
Speaker 5: It's just because Ada is like kind of mean and

2774
02:14:00,079 --> 02:14:02,319
like it's sexy. Everyone's like, he is allowed to be

2775
02:14:02,359 --> 02:14:03,760
a terrorist. I think she's hot.

2776
02:14:06,119 --> 02:14:07,319
Speaker 1: I mean that's an opinion.

2777
02:14:07,399 --> 02:14:09,520
Speaker 3: Look, you know what now that she's saying, you know

2778
02:14:09,640 --> 02:14:12,439
now that you Sun that allowed to be.

2779
02:14:12,359 --> 02:14:14,359
Speaker 2: A terrorist is a hilarious What.

2780
02:14:14,439 --> 02:14:16,520
Speaker 5: The community is like, they like it's fine.

2781
02:14:17,479 --> 02:14:21,960
Speaker 3: I do think Leon is like a phrasing terrorist though,

2782
02:14:22,279 --> 02:14:24,399
I do think Leon like says some of the most

2783
02:14:24,840 --> 02:14:29,319
remarkably stupid shit where I'm just like, bitch, shut up,

2784
02:14:29,439 --> 02:14:34,119
to shut your stupid handsome face and just like shoot gun.

2785
02:14:34,279 --> 02:14:38,039
Speaker 5: Yeah, this isn't a spoiler, but it is incredible. Like

2786
02:14:38,199 --> 02:14:40,840
the crux of that, Gabe is that there's this twenty

2787
02:14:40,880 --> 02:14:44,720
two year old FBI agent and her her boss is like, hey,

2788
02:14:45,159 --> 02:14:48,600
remember that creepy hotel where your mother was murdered in

2789
02:14:48,640 --> 02:14:49,079
front of you?

2790
02:14:49,439 --> 02:14:51,720
Speaker 1: Someone else has been murdered there. Yeah.

2791
02:14:51,760 --> 02:14:57,439
Speaker 5: I know that you're emotionally distant. It seemed very uh touchy,

2792
02:14:58,279 --> 02:15:00,000
but you're going allowed.

2793
02:14:59,720 --> 02:15:02,119
Speaker 2: To an best not a field agent at all.

2794
02:15:02,279 --> 02:15:06,520
Speaker 5: Like I was like, I was kind of waiting to

2795
02:15:06,560 --> 02:15:09,840
find out that the FBI director whatever was a zombie.

2796
02:15:10,039 --> 02:15:10,640
Like he's.

2797
02:15:12,399 --> 02:15:14,279
Speaker 3: I mean, she I don't know, I don't know what

2798
02:15:14,359 --> 02:15:17,560
she's qualified to do based off like everything she says.

2799
02:15:17,600 --> 02:15:19,960
Speaker 5: He's qualified to stutter the first word of a sentence,

2800
02:15:20,000 --> 02:15:21,279
which he does very well.

2801
02:15:21,319 --> 02:15:23,199
Speaker 1: Actually every time she does it. I like it.

2802
02:15:23,359 --> 02:15:26,039
Speaker 5: Yeah, So it's like, what do you mean I can't

2803
02:15:26,039 --> 02:15:28,199
go in there. I'm like, yeah, she's scared. I like it.

2804
02:15:28,239 --> 02:15:29,359
Speaker 1: Fucking bugs bunny.

2805
02:15:29,439 --> 02:15:31,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's kind of a bugs bunny voice.

2806
02:15:31,720 --> 02:15:31,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2807
02:15:32,600 --> 02:15:35,840

2810
02:15:41,439 --> 02:15:42,079
Speaker 1: It's not the.

2811
02:15:42,039 --> 02:15:46,439
Speaker 5: Game Boy color, it's the Giant BombCast naked.

2812
02:15:50,439 --> 02:15:50,640
Speaker 1: Mike.

2813
02:15:50,720 --> 02:15:52,199
Speaker 2: I also thought game Boy color.

02:16:03,920 --> 02:16:04,760
Speaker 1: Don't be so cold.

2817
02:16:05,800 --> 02:16:08,319
Speaker 5: So the super chat you're only allowed to write as

2818
02:16:08,399 --> 02:16:10,119
much as you tip for, so you have to use

2819
02:16:10,159 --> 02:16:14,439
a preview, I don't think. But to get like like

2820
02:16:15,079 --> 02:16:18,800
twenty character Yeah exactly, that is.

2821
02:16:19,199 --> 02:16:22,439
Speaker 3: That's like cool and dark at the same time. Okay,

2822
02:16:23,359 --> 02:16:26,880
I gotta help us pay the bills. Yeah so John, No,

2823
02:16:27,079 --> 02:16:33,319
John's back from Japan. I I spoke to John this weekend.

2824
02:16:34,959 --> 02:16:38,760
Speaker 1: Wait. First off, John's been on BombCast before, and I

2825
02:16:38,799 --> 02:16:41,399
think he's been on the BombCast, He's been on the

2826
02:16:41,440 --> 02:16:43,959
Power BombCast, and we've had him on the Dump Truck.

2827
02:16:44,639 --> 02:16:46,920
Oh maybe it's the dump I'm thinking of. Yeah, yeah,

2828
02:16:47,040 --> 02:16:48,719
I think John would be into it.

2829
02:16:49,760 --> 02:16:54,559
Speaker 3: And also I don't know does John deserve it?

2830
02:16:55,280 --> 02:16:58,840
Speaker 1: WHOA take your issues with him being cool dad out

2831
02:16:58,879 --> 02:17:02,000
of the equation. Hey, this is a look.

2832
02:17:02,200 --> 02:17:06,520
Speaker 3: Perhaps perhaps there's a there's some truth to that. Perhaps

2833
02:17:06,600 --> 02:17:09,719
I am a little resentful about John being the cool

2834
02:17:09,840 --> 02:17:13,280
dad that my son never had. That's a demon for

2835
02:17:13,360 --> 02:17:14,280
me to exercise.

2836
02:17:14,879 --> 02:17:17,879
Speaker 1: But yeah, I would if John wants to come on

2837
02:17:18,520 --> 02:17:21,479
the Giant Bomb cast. John's more than we.

2838
02:17:21,879 --> 02:17:23,079
Speaker 2: All right, there we go.

2839
02:17:23,319 --> 02:17:26,639
Speaker 5: I do want to hear about his Tokyo Disneyland experiences.

2840
02:17:26,719 --> 02:17:30,360
So yes, I have one more here, and it is

2841
02:17:30,559 --> 02:17:34,200
from Rio Raku Dan. Who's the core dude salt steak

2842
02:17:34,319 --> 02:17:38,239
or Walauigi solid Snake. Yeah, I mean, I don't know

2843
02:17:38,239 --> 02:17:39,159
if cool.

2844
02:17:39,680 --> 02:17:42,360
Speaker 2: I'm fascinated with Wallaweigi the way I'm fascinated with like

2845
02:17:42,440 --> 02:17:47,360
Marty Supreme. He's just like this weird easy worker, you know,

2846

to see Hm shoots some bad guys, you know.

2848
02:17:52,200 --> 02:17:55,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, Walawigi would also get someone knocked up and then

2849
02:17:55,639 --> 02:17:57,600
immediately leave to go play ping pong.

2850
02:17:57,760 --> 02:18:00,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Waaluigi would have sex with Gwyneth Palultrone shower to

2851
02:18:00,520 --> 02:18:01,360
steal her necklace.

2852
02:18:02,239 --> 02:18:03,600
Speaker 1: That was a fake necklace.

2853
02:18:03,879 --> 02:18:10,600
Speaker 3: Right now, walawug does appear to be chronically directed by.

2921

Speaker 3: Yes, a handful of codes for new subscribers. That'll be

2922
02:21:56,079 --> 02:21:59,799
a lovely event next Monday, Yeah, Mike, So.

2923
02:22:00,040 --> 02:22:02,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm excited. I love Lego Party, so I'm excited

2924
02:22:02,239 --> 02:22:05,280
to play some more of it and show my brothers

2925
02:22:05,280 --> 02:22:07,600
what's up. I can't wait to see my uh order

2926
02:22:07,639 --> 02:22:10,799
brother's reaction video to losing to me at Lego Party.

2927
02:22:11,600 --> 02:22:13,159
Speaker 1: Okay, all right.

2928
02:22:13,440 --> 02:22:17,559
Speaker 3: He's really finding every opportunity for premium folks.

2929
02:22:17,799 --> 02:22:20,319
Speaker 1: We also have Marry Me Tomadacci coming up on this

2930
02:22:20,399 --> 02:22:23,280
Thursday as well, Voicemail, dumb Truck before that, you p

2931
02:22:23,840 --> 02:22:27,399
this Friday, and the boys are gonna go try and

2932
02:22:27,399 --> 02:22:30,360
get some titters in the bank. I mean, this is

2933
02:22:30,360 --> 02:22:36,719
the run, come on, that's what we started calling it eternally. No,

2934
02:22:39,680 --> 02:22:42,879
I can't have watched Look you can't have is better

2935
02:22:42,879 --> 02:22:50,399
than it's any This is the run. It's a bad day.

2936
02:22:51,760 --> 02:22:52,120
Like it.

2937
02:22:53,120 --> 02:22:55,680
Speaker 2: People like it.

2938
02:22:54,159 --> 02:22:59,799
Speaker 8: It's descriptive and it echoes our other brand.

2939
02:22:59,879 --> 02:23:02,639
Speaker 1: I don't get what's a home run?

2940
02:23:03,079 --> 02:23:03,879
Speaker 8: And I didn't.

2941
02:23:04,319 --> 02:23:06,760
Speaker 5: To be clear, I did not name that launch look

2942
02:23:07,239 --> 02:23:09,840
all right? I think Jane did because he agrees with me.

2943
02:23:10,440 --> 02:23:11,280
Or what's to a piece?

2944
02:23:13,520 --> 02:23:17,399
Speaker 1: This is? This is a bad idea. I changed the stream.

2945
02:23:17,600 --> 02:23:21,280
I didn't do that. You didn't do plade? Who named

2946
02:23:21,319 --> 02:23:26,120
a look? I don't know? Maybe who is changed Jane.

2947
02:23:25,920 --> 02:23:29,360
Speaker 2: Grubber straungely anti launched look wouldn't have been us.

2948
02:23:30,760 --> 02:23:34,799
Speaker 1: I think kind of makes more sense. It sounds shitty,

2949
02:23:35,120 --> 02:23:38,440
don't be honest, history with his back look, why is

2950
02:23:38,479 --> 02:23:41,680
it so bad? But also I think long look is

2951
02:23:41,959 --> 02:23:42,840
just funnier.

2952
02:23:43,000 --> 02:23:44,799
Speaker 2: Look is funnier. It sounds better.

2953
02:23:44,920 --> 02:23:47,079
Speaker 5: To be clear, it's not funny. We can call it that,

2954
02:23:47,239 --> 02:23:48,360
but it's no one's laughing.

2955
02:23:48,520 --> 02:23:51,639
Speaker 2: Someone said, first look, one's like Chuck first look today,

2956
02:23:51,799 --> 02:23:54,319
that first looks better than like everything is better than launch.

2957
02:23:54,799 --> 02:23:56,840
Speaker 5: We can't do because like what the people like, launch

2958
02:23:56,920 --> 02:23:59,000
look is too much like quick look, which it's supposed

2959
02:23:59,040 --> 02:24:01,159
to be. They're very similar to things. But you can't

2960
02:24:01,760 --> 02:24:04,319
look that's even more like that's well, apparently it's a problem.

2961
02:24:04,639 --> 02:24:08,760
Speaker 1: The problem is funny. Long look is funny because it's

2962
02:24:08,920 --> 02:24:10,639
actually a longer look at the game.

2963
02:24:10,719 --> 02:24:14,319
Speaker 5: It's it's more descriptivepiness than an hour long look at

2964
02:24:14,360 --> 02:24:15,280
that thing.

2965
02:24:15,600 --> 02:24:17,440
Speaker 1: But that was a question, Yeah, and that's been the joke.

2966
02:24:19,799 --> 02:24:22,000
Do you think you could name a restaurant Titters?

2967
02:24:22,079 --> 02:24:31,360
Speaker 3: Though, yeah, you can't, Like you'd be like, oh, that's

2968
02:24:31,399 --> 02:24:33,159
not a Martinitaville anymore, it's a Titters.

2969
02:24:33,200 --> 02:24:40,040
Speaker 1: Now the Hooters exactly. Well, since Jeff Greb is still

2970
02:24:40,079 --> 02:24:42,719

02:25:31,200 --> 02:25:32,680
super smooth scoop dunbar.

2989
02:25:33,879 --> 02:25:35,440
Speaker 1: How did I get Buster Shrugs?

2990
02:25:35,479 --> 02:25:36,239
