And then I'm like, but dang, I 30 00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:48.879 can't have that glass of water. But then you go, 31 00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:51.319 but then you go, you know what, who else can't 32 00:01:51.359 --> 00:01:56.079 have glasses or people in certain life situations where they 33 00:01:56.120 --> 00:01:59.040 can't access this kind of food easily and water easily, 34 00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:00.920 and this is what they have to do with every day. 35 00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:03.680 So you have to do it for one month, suck 36 00:02:03.719 --> 00:02:06.920 it up. And now that you've in that moment, like 37 00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:10.120 you think that thought process, and then you appreciate not 38 00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:13.120 only glasses of water, but being able to have it anytime. 39 00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:14.599 And then you're like, you know what I want, don'tate 40 00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:18.639 to charity a bit?

So uh man, it's 97 00:04:58.279 --> 00:05:02.720 it's good though, I think like the new Dungeon is 98 00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:04.839 fucking dope. It's being opening up the pit. The song 99 00:05:04.879 --> 00:05:07.639 and the New Dungeon is like it almost starts with 100 00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:10.480 like a like a like a doom kind of vibe 101 00:05:10.519 --> 00:05:13.360 to it.

But anyway, 108 00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:44.319 this Dungeon's fire. Though, Like I can't talk. I don't 109 00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:46.279 want to. There there are folks who listen to this 110 00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:50.560 podcast who are avid fourteen players and some who've actually started, 111 00:05:50.879 --> 00:05:53.759 so I don't want to like talk about story specific stuff. 112 00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:55.639 But it is very good and like the lead up 113 00:05:55.639 --> 00:05:57.920 to it, there's a lot of cut scenes, and because 114 00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:00.160 you know, we love them cut scenes, and they're there's 115 00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:04.000 a lot of like implications and tying up old story threads, 116 00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:06.879 which I think happened a little quick, but there's a 117 00:06:07.040 --> 00:06:09.759 there's a great sense of urgency in the current world 118 00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:13.959 of Final Fantasy fourteen, So it's I I kind of 119 00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:16.959 attribute to that to where like, oh, things are happening fast. 120 00:06:17.000 --> 00:06:18.160 It's kind of weird. Oh, all of a sudden, we 121 00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:20.519 got solutions for this thing and that thing. But it's like, yo, 122 00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:23.240 the fucking world's about to end, so let's get some 123 00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:27.160 shit done. So that's kind of what's happening there. Also 124 00:06:27.199 --> 00:06:30.240 did the Near Raid, the Near the third, the final, 125 00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:34.319 the final part to the Near Automata series Alliance Raid 126 00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:38.079 in Fantasy fourteen. Man, that shit is fucking good too, 127 00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:41.600 because here's the thing. It's not like the lead up 128 00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:44.720 has been kind of like a sort of side story 129 00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:47.920 for Near Automata, but this last one is like straight 130 00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:53.360 up like marketing for real Near Replicant like this, this, uh, 131 00:06:53.560 --> 00:06:59.519 this latest raid part is heavy on Near Replicant and 132 00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:03.000 I I've been playing your Replicant, so I uh, I 133 00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:05.199 get all the references. I'm like, oh, shit, this is 134 00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:07.120 this is so cool that I'm like literally playing that 135 00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:10.360 game right now and I'm seeing all of it, all 136 00:07:10.399 --> 00:07:13.199 of it represented in Final Fantasy fourteen. I'm like, yo, 137 00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:16.120 who the like Yoko Taro and now Kiyoshi are like 138 00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:18.600 in a room laughing like, ah, this dude, Michael hi yo, 139 00:07:18.759 --> 00:07:21.079 we got his back.

And like so there's 142 00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:31.240 there are bosses in that raid where the mechanics represent 143 00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:34.439 what the bosses do in your replicant. So when I 144 00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:36.560 was doing my first run, I was like, I know 145 00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:39.040 this mechanic. I know what the bosses are doing here. 146 00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:41.560 So then when I'm went in the raid, I'm like, okay, 147 00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:43.519 I'm going to Oh I already know. I already know 148 00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:45.040 what to do. And it's like I'm playing a completely 149 00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:46.879 different game and I already know what to do because 150 00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:50.120 I played the play the source material. Man, It's just 151 00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:54.680 it's like, oh my god, the ben the you gotta 152 00:07:55.360 --> 00:07:56.920 I'm gonna let you, like, well. 153 00:07:57.160 --> 00:07:59.120 Even even beyond because you're you're talking about how you've 154 00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:01.439 been playing Replication and and everything else, and it's been 155 00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:04.199 been kind of trailing through with automata all the way through. 156 00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:06.439 It actually has a bunch of Dragon Guard stuff in 157 00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:10.680 it too. The literal ends Boss is like it's the 158 00:08:10.680 --> 00:08:14.800 same setup as the end of Dragon Guard. Like it like. 159 00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:18.439 It's it's just who played Dragon Guard. 160 00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:22.959 I feel like people I probably should. I'm pretty sure 161 00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:26.439 I want to now one of the endings. You keep 162 00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:30.399 it kind of up in the air. Sure, yeah, yeah, yeah, 163 00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:34.039 But it's it's impressive that, like through this whole thing. 164 00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:36.679 The big thing is definitely the music, because you're you 165 00:08:36.759 --> 00:08:39.000 got music from the Zoom which is fantastic, You've got 166 00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:41.320 music from from the New Year Games, which is fantastic. 167 00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:43.360 And they I felt like they kind of just went 168 00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:45.080 all out right from the beginning and did way to 169 00:08:45.159 --> 00:08:48.120 the world, mixed with the prelude from Final Fantasy. But 170 00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:52.159 they've somehow found a way to outdo themselves with the 171 00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:54.720 one for the Last Boss in this one, and it 172 00:08:54.919 --> 00:08:59.480 also pulls from Final Fantasy. The whole series, Uh, Dragon 173 00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:03.679 Guard and Near like all mixed up together in one song. 174 00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:05.440 It's nuts. 175 00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:08.879 I don't wanna, I don't want to say exactly what 176 00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:12.080 song plays, but Ben, You're you've been watching me stream 177 00:09:12.159 --> 00:09:16.039 near the original near, so you're familiar with I'm just 178 00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:18.600 gonna say you're familiar with that song. Yeah. For me, 179 00:09:18.759 --> 00:09:21.080 when it played, I like, I literally like I sunk 180 00:09:21.120 --> 00:09:23.679 into my seat like obviously, okay, you're not yell on 181 00:09:23.720 --> 00:09:25.240 a video, but I like suck into my seat like, 182 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:29.559 and I was just like I tried so because that 183 00:09:29.559 --> 00:09:32.600 that last boss fight is wild. There's a lot of 184 00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:36.840 fucking mechanics, uh, and like Final Fantasy fourteen does this 185 00:09:36.879 --> 00:09:38.960 a lot where they introduce you to mechanics and as 186 00:09:38.960 --> 00:09:41.480 the fight goes on, they keep layering them on, so 187 00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:44.480 then you juggle basically every mechanic that you've seen in 188 00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:47.120 that fight towards the end of it. And I don't 189 00:09:47.159 --> 00:09:49.279 know I was in the I was in the motherfucking 190 00:09:49.360 --> 00:09:53.519 zone because I was like, Okay, the color attacks this way, 191 00:09:53.519 --> 00:09:55.440 I gotta face that way, and then the trains come 192 00:09:55.480 --> 00:09:58.480 in this way. But then like, oh, I'm getting getting targeted. 193 00:09:58.519 --> 00:09:59.879 I got to get away from the group, and then 194 00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:02.080 what's that set there? I gotta avoid the aoees And 195 00:10:02.279 --> 00:10:05.639 like I'm like, I'm not even thinking, I'm just reacting 196 00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:08.919 to what I'm seeing on screen, it's a man, are 197 00:10:08.960 --> 00:10:11.679 you playing alone? No? This is well I'm playing with 198 00:10:12.039 --> 00:10:13.679 I was playing with random. 199 00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:15.919 Random players, So you're random, yeah, because. 200 00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:18.000 You have to for that. For all the Near series, 201 00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:19.919 you have to play with twenty a group of twenty four. 202 00:10:20.159 --> 00:10:22.000 I was supposed to take Michael with me, but then 203 00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:23.799 our whole group was like, no, we're all down to 204 00:10:23.840 --> 00:10:26.240 play today, and then I abandoned my boy like the 205 00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:27.039 worst person ever. 206 00:10:29.240 --> 00:10:30.000 I hate to see it. 207 00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:32.600 I really hate to see it for people. 208 00:10:32.440 --> 00:10:37.799 Who might be just starting Final Fantasy, starting zev there's 209 00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:40.080 no like timer on that event is there. It's just 210 00:10:40.440 --> 00:10:42.039 forever there, forever, always there. 211 00:10:42.279 --> 00:10:44.879 It's a it's a whole quest line, so whenever you 212 00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:46.679 get around to it, it'll be there for you. 213 00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:50.879 It is. It is the shadow Bringer's main Alliance raid set, 214 00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:54.799 because each each expansion has its own, like twenty four 215 00:10:54.879 --> 00:11:00.679 man raid set, and like the one four Blood was 216 00:11:00.799 --> 00:11:03.799 all the Evilly stuff that had to do with Tactics 217 00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:06.120 and Final Fantasy twelve. So you literally go back to 218 00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:07.759 Robin Oster and all that and you get to see 219 00:11:07.799 --> 00:11:13.519 all those people. Yeah, it shows up, yeah, m Yeah, 220 00:11:13.679 --> 00:11:17.960 he's there there. Man, They're always. 221 00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:27.120 Yeah, guys, delete this the deleted delete this that's his name, right? Fuck? 222 00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:27.559 I forgot? 223 00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:33.399 Like fourteen? Is that game that because I obviously work 224 00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:35.840 with you and see you all post about it all 225 00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:39.000 the time and just see how much everyone loves it, 226 00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:42.120 is the game that I am so like, I really 227 00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:43.919 really want to dip my toe into. But it just 228 00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:50.360 seems very very intimidating because I've never played an MMO before. 229 00:11:51.639 --> 00:11:54.840 I sho tried wow, but it wasn't for me. 230 00:11:55.519 --> 00:11:56.679 I definitely feel you on that. 231 00:11:56.919 --> 00:11:59.159 But would you how would would you recommend? Like it 232 00:11:59.159 --> 00:12:00.759 would be fine for me to just like I've played 233 00:12:00.759 --> 00:12:02.360 a lot of Final Fancy, is that okay for me 234 00:12:02.399 --> 00:12:03.039 to just go in? 235 00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:04.159 Yeah? 236 00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:04.360 There? 237 00:12:04.440 --> 00:12:09.159 There's there's an article on GameSpot dot com called you 238 00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:12.600 should you should be playing Final Fantasy fourteen Starter's Guide 239 00:12:12.679 --> 00:12:14.240 something like that. I think it'll pops it. I think 240 00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:16.000 it's like the top search thing in se O when 241 00:12:16.000 --> 00:12:19.399 you search Beginner's Guide Final Fantasy fourteen. But I should 242 00:12:19.399 --> 00:12:20.159 definitely peep that. 243 00:12:21.360 --> 00:12:23.720 I think I've read that. I genuinely think I've read it, 244 00:12:23.759 --> 00:12:27.200 but it's like it's still very intimidated. Do I do 245 00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:29.799 I need it? Do I need it? Do I need friends? 246 00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:30.679 No? 247 00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:34.360 So I did not. Here's here's what you should notice. 248 00:12:34.440 --> 00:12:38.519 See the first like we've said this before, the first 249 00:12:39.159 --> 00:12:43.440 kind of expansion realm Reborn, then vanilla stuff is it's 250 00:12:43.519 --> 00:12:47.440 dry as fuck. It's not it's not fun. Everyone everyone 251 00:12:47.519 --> 00:12:50.639 kind of accepts that. Keep it will what will. What 252 00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:54.159 makes it good is it's a podcast that's a that's 253 00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:58.159 a thirty hour podcast game. As someone who's done it 254 00:12:58.159 --> 00:13:01.080 twice and is now in there like halfway through the 255 00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:03.120 second run of a rum Riborn or something. 256 00:13:02.919 --> 00:13:05.000 Like that, Oh did you get screwed by square in X? 257 00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:05.559 Yeah? 258 00:13:05.559 --> 00:13:07.960 I got screwed by Square in X, so like I 259 00:13:08.000 --> 00:13:10.000 had to do it the second time. It's a very 260 00:13:10.039 --> 00:13:13.200 good podcast game. What I do is I've mapped every 261 00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:16.639 command that I need to, like my mouse, I've got 262 00:13:16.679 --> 00:13:19.480 a mouse with loads of buttons, and then like I'm 263 00:13:19.480 --> 00:13:22.519 playing basically playing one handed. And then on the other hand, 264 00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:25.960 I'm like just on my phone or whatever I can. 265 00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:28.360 I can have like a second monitor. 266 00:13:28.320 --> 00:13:29.600 Not even paying attention to. 267 00:13:33.840 --> 00:13:36.519 I can't PLAYMOS without that. That's the only mousse I'll 268 00:13:36.519 --> 00:13:39.039 ever use. It's a it's like him is. 269 00:13:39.080 --> 00:13:40.960 Right, you probably won't be paying a lot of attention. 270 00:13:41.039 --> 00:13:43.440 But then I said that how much. 271 00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:46.039 How much is there to care about in that? Because 272 00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:49.879 there is not a lot to care about in that first. 273 00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:52.519 Anything that's voiced, pay attention to it. 274 00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:56.879 Yeah. The thing about a Rumberborn is it's very dry, 275 00:13:57.000 --> 00:14:01.120 and you're getting introduced to all the characters, and it's 276 00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:03.120 in that moment of going through a rumber Borne and 277 00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:05.720 you're like, oh, god, Dan Kred's doing whatever he's doing. 278 00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:10.240 I guess cool. It's it's when you get to the 279 00:14:10.240 --> 00:14:14.240 the like Heaven's Ward and storm Blood where you have 280 00:14:14.320 --> 00:14:16.159 that background on those characters that it kind of comes 281 00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:18.320 around and you're glad that you sort of picked up 282 00:14:18.360 --> 00:14:21.559 on it. Yeah, it's it's all late payoff, which really 283 00:14:21.559 --> 00:14:25.159 sucks to say all the time, but it's at least. 284 00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:27.480 Streng Yeah, you get that burn. And like I said, 285 00:14:27.519 --> 00:14:31.000 it's streamline. But so I would probably. 286 00:14:32.840 --> 00:14:33.080 Is it? 287 00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:34.720 I can I log into my account and play it 288 00:14:34.759 --> 00:14:36.519 on PlayStation if I'm. 289 00:14:36.399 --> 00:14:42.240 Playing what maybe maybe? Who knows. That's not for me 290 00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:43.000 to decide. 291 00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:46.120 You can as long as you rebuy the game on 292 00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:49.159 the other console because you need to have licenses for 293 00:14:49.240 --> 00:14:51.240 the game on both places when you're playing. 294 00:14:51.720 --> 00:14:55.399 Oh okay, gotcha. So that's not like, you know, I 295 00:14:55.440 --> 00:14:58.279 would be stuck to PC or something if I because 296 00:14:58.320 --> 00:15:02.879 I think I have fourteen, don't they I'll have all 297 00:15:02.879 --> 00:15:03.600 the expansions. 298 00:15:03.639 --> 00:15:06.799 When you download the client on PS four, it asks 299 00:15:06.840 --> 00:15:08.639 you to log in as if you were opening a 300 00:15:08.679 --> 00:15:10.960 PC client, and then you do that and then it 301 00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:13.559 loads up the game. But like Ben says, as long 302 00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:16.120 as you have a license for the p S four 303 00:15:17.360 --> 00:15:19.200 or what like when you buy the P or when 304 00:15:19.200 --> 00:15:21.720 you get the PS four version or PlayStation version, because 305 00:15:21.720 --> 00:15:23.639 now there's a PS five, which I should I should 306 00:15:23.639 --> 00:15:27.240 also mention published on games dot com, just freshly off 307 00:15:27.279 --> 00:15:31.000 the hot off the presses, my impressions of it. But yeah, 308 00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:33.159 it's it'll just be like, okay, you're gonna you buy 309 00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:35.320 buy it on the PlayStation Store, and then you log 310 00:15:35.320 --> 00:15:36.600 into you account. The first time is like do you 311 00:15:36.639 --> 00:15:39.960 want to tie your squareness account to this PSN account? Oh? 312 00:15:40.000 --> 00:15:41.919 You got that on your ps N account? Cool, Now 313 00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:44.120 you go play the game. That's how it's supposed to go. 314 00:15:44.159 --> 00:15:49.159 But that's you know, a squarenest account is wild knows 315 00:15:49.159 --> 00:15:49.759 all about that. 316 00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:53.360 I have a PlayStation for account. 317 00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:56.519 For they said, thought. 318 00:15:57.559 --> 00:16:01.080 You cannot have that account and if you make an 319 00:16:01.080 --> 00:16:04.000 account on the PlayStation. I've mentioned this before, but it 320 00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:07.200 basically ties it to your It doesn't create an account, 321 00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:12.480 it ties it to your PlayStation profile. So you cannot 322 00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:15.320 make another account because you are allowed to have one 323 00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:18.039 account tied to that. If you're like me where you 324 00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:20.240 get locked out of it because of some nonsense on 325 00:16:20.320 --> 00:16:24.679 Square any acidey, you cannot create a second console account. 326 00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:26.960 To be honest, I feel like we have this conversation 327 00:16:27.080 --> 00:16:30.080 every time we talk about so kind of I'm kind 328 00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:31.039 of tired of it. 329 00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:33.759 Yeah, for sure, I like I think, I think, like 330 00:16:35.120 --> 00:16:38.279 I'm hoping that the PlayStation five version is good. So 331 00:16:38.320 --> 00:16:39.639 then because I'm gonna. 332 00:16:39.879 --> 00:16:42.320 Yeah, you should should you should keep the article on 333 00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:46.039 GameSpot dot com. There's you know, how off the presses 334 00:16:46.080 --> 00:16:47.399 your PS five version is fire. 335 00:16:47.960 --> 00:16:50.240 There's gameplay videos if you want to see how it runs. 336 00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:54.399 Now, Yeah, it looks good in beta, but I'm waiting 337 00:16:54.399 --> 00:16:57.039 for it to kind of like I want that final 338 00:16:57.080 --> 00:16:59.440 word to be like, now it's worth going through the 339 00:16:59.480 --> 00:17:01.360 hassle of. 340 00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:03.519 Yes, the way that go ahead? 341 00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:05.000 Man, I was gonna say, I also want to talk 342 00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:06.839 about some of like the dumb things that they didn't 343 00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:08.960 know that they didn't need to do. But I kind of, 344 00:17:09.000 --> 00:17:12.400 like weirdly appreciate because everyone knows like the dual sense 345 00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:15.839 controllers are like these weird neat things and they do 346 00:17:15.880 --> 00:17:19.319 stuff with the rumble and all that they made different 347 00:17:19.640 --> 00:17:25.039 rumble patterns for every mount you every mount, every mount 348 00:17:25.240 --> 00:17:28.839 feels different in the way that it like steps or flies. 349 00:17:29.039 --> 00:17:32.839 You can feel the wings black walking on different terrain 350 00:17:33.039 --> 00:17:36.000 with your feet makes the controller rumble differently. And I'm 351 00:17:36.039 --> 00:17:40.640 like you, guys, you could literally spend time with anything 352 00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:43.759 for this, and you decided to make dirt feel different 353 00:17:43.759 --> 00:17:45.519 from walking on a sidewalk for me. 354 00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:48.200 And to be fair though, like given, I think the 355 00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:52.880 difference is when you play games like Astro and Spider 356 00:17:52.880 --> 00:17:55.119 Man and Miles Morales and then you go to like 357 00:17:55.160 --> 00:17:57.759 another Triple A game like something like Cyberpunk, where they've 358 00:17:57.759 --> 00:18:00.720 done nothing for the duel sense stuff. I really appreciate 359 00:18:00.759 --> 00:18:04.119 that because the difference is so huge, and so I'm 360 00:18:04.200 --> 00:18:07.319 I'm down for that. I love that is That's a 361 00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:09.039 level of intricacy that I'm here for. 362 00:18:09.759 --> 00:18:11.960 Yeah, p S five version is is pretty good and 363 00:18:12.039 --> 00:18:14.440 basically the way it works is like it's called a beta, 364 00:18:14.480 --> 00:18:18.200 but really what it is is it's a it's just uh, 365 00:18:18.279 --> 00:18:20.640 it's it's like a like an early version of what 366 00:18:20.720 --> 00:18:23.119 because they said, if everything goes smoothly, we're just gonna 367 00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:26.240 roll the beta into a full service game and that's 368 00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:28.680 that on that and we'll have subsequent patches to like 369 00:18:28.720 --> 00:18:31.640 improve things here there if hiccups occur. But like right now, 370 00:18:31.680 --> 00:18:34.119 I mean I played all day yesterday on PS five, 371 00:18:34.119 --> 00:18:36.720 I'm like, yeah, this shits. This is fire Like there's 372 00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:38.559 performance hiccups, and I think that that's what they want 373 00:18:38.559 --> 00:18:41.400 to do, is like do further optimizations. But right now 374 00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:45.480 it's like, yo, this is this is dope. It's like beta. 375 00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:48.519 That's the full game. There's there's no they're just calling 376 00:18:48.519 --> 00:18:51.960 it beta just like you know, be careful with it 377 00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:55.000 in case something does happen. But basically it's like, oh, 378 00:18:55.000 --> 00:18:56.799 we have a PS five version of the game. Now cool. 379 00:18:57.319 --> 00:18:59.799 That's that's that's basically I wrote a thousand words just 380 00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:00.720 saying that. 381 00:19:02.480 --> 00:19:05.680 Also, it's wild that uh we got our first uh 382 00:19:06.240 --> 00:19:08.440 like UI update for the game too, in terms of 383 00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:12.240 like resolution, so that game is old for everything. So 384 00:19:12.279 --> 00:19:14.920 that game is so old that all of the assets 385 00:19:14.920 --> 00:19:16.400 for it were meant to be displayed on like a 386 00:19:16.440 --> 00:19:17.599 seven to twenty p output. 387 00:19:18.839 --> 00:19:19.200 Wow. 388 00:19:19.319 --> 00:19:23.640 So if so yesterday when we all logged in, uh, 389 00:19:23.759 --> 00:19:26.119 the font that was used for like player names was 390 00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:30.200 finally being displayed in like the proper resolution ratio. So 391 00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:32.119 it was super thin and kind of hard to read 392 00:19:32.160 --> 00:19:35.000 for people because it wasn't as blurry and thick anymore, 393 00:19:35.119 --> 00:19:38.279 which is wild to me. But uh, yeah, the high 394 00:19:38.359 --> 00:19:40.640 resolution stuff for the UIs need. And apparently they're going 395 00:19:40.680 --> 00:19:43.559 to start updating old textures too. I read somewhere yes, 396 00:19:43.960 --> 00:19:47.039 which is yeah, because older gear, if you get real 397 00:19:47.079 --> 00:19:49.039 close to it, looks kind of gross sometimes. 398 00:19:49.440 --> 00:19:51.200 Yeah, I was looking, I was looking at some of 399 00:19:51.559 --> 00:19:54.240 row Bond's his get up and like, dog, you need 400 00:19:54.279 --> 00:19:55.400 to update your fucking. 401 00:19:55.400 --> 00:19:59.000 Right your your your cape you get that high. 402 00:19:59.240 --> 00:20:03.839 Yeah, but yeah, Final Fantasy is uh fucking dope. 403 00:20:03.880 --> 00:20:04.119 Man. 404 00:20:04.240 --> 00:20:06.680 Yeah, I'm I don't know man, that that new I'm 405 00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:08.799 still thinking about that new near ray Man, because there's 406 00:20:08.839 --> 00:20:10.599 a whole story that that's a tie that's tied to. 407 00:20:10.680 --> 00:20:12.440 It's not just like oh go into this dungeon like 408 00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:14.160 cool shit happens. You see two B and you see 409 00:20:14.240 --> 00:20:17.240 nine S. There's a story of tied to. There's a 410 00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:20.200 story tied to it that's actually in universe, so it's 411 00:20:20.240 --> 00:20:24.039 not just like this wild near thing that happens and 412 00:20:24.079 --> 00:20:26.160 low key, I'm like, yo, this is fucking like kind 413 00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:32.359 of sad uh because the the Dwarves in uh In, 414 00:20:32.440 --> 00:20:35.400 like the Shadow Bringers universe, they're so cute. They're like, 415 00:20:35.400 --> 00:20:38.680 they're they're very they're very expressive, they're they're adorable. Like 416 00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:40.400 the way they talk, the way they interact with each other, 417 00:20:40.440 --> 00:20:41.680 the way they talk to you. It's like, oh, they're 418 00:20:41.720 --> 00:20:44.519 kind of they're really endearing. But there's this whole arc 419 00:20:44.599 --> 00:20:50.279 about sacrifice and like building a village and building a community. 420 00:20:50.559 --> 00:20:54.119 That's that kind of contextualizes the the Near story. And 421 00:20:54.480 --> 00:20:56.559 I'm not gonna say this is a spoiler, but there is 422 00:20:56.599 --> 00:20:59.640 a wild motherfucking parallel. If you played, if you played 423 00:20:59.640 --> 00:21:02.359 in Europe, you've played Near Automata, and you play this raid, 424 00:21:02.680 --> 00:21:06.759 there is a huge parallel between two of the key 425 00:21:06.839 --> 00:21:10.200 characters in the Final Fantasy fourteen universe that parallel to 426 00:21:10.519 --> 00:21:13.359 major characters in the Near universe. And when I hit 427 00:21:13.400 --> 00:21:19.599 that revelation, I was like, you motherfucker, it's oh my god, Okay, anyway, 428 00:21:19.640 --> 00:21:21.240 that's that's that's that's it. 429 00:21:21.319 --> 00:21:23.319 So we haven't even talked about the flipp it the 430 00:21:23.480 --> 00:21:26.359 end of the Final Fantasy seven weapons too, because they 431 00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:27.720 added the last one of those in there. 432 00:21:28.440 --> 00:21:31.839 Oh shit, I didn't know that. Yeah, oh yeah, never mind. 433 00:21:31.960 --> 00:21:32.160 I know. 434 00:21:32.359 --> 00:21:35.000 The whole Evangelian storyline. 435 00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:38.599 The Gundam story. It's Gunda, It's Evangelian. It's also yeah, 436 00:21:38.599 --> 00:21:39.000 you get. 437 00:21:39.519 --> 00:21:42.799 A literal Gundam for like half of these quests that 438 00:21:43.519 --> 00:21:46.359 Sid builds for you, and and it ties. 439 00:21:46.200 --> 00:21:50.759 Back to an og villain from the base game, and 440 00:21:50.920 --> 00:21:53.559 it's just like how like and like the whole thing 441 00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:56.240 about five point five is tying up old story threads 442 00:21:57.119 --> 00:21:59.720 or bringing back a lot of things that haven't been 443 00:21:59.720 --> 00:22:03.519 resolve and then resolving them. So but yeah, this patch 444 00:22:03.759 --> 00:22:08.960 is like the first part of the whole tie that 445 00:22:09.079 --> 00:22:13.000 goes into the next expansion pack. So late may I 446 00:22:13.000 --> 00:22:16.160 assume the week after Final Fantasy, for the Final Fantasy 447 00:22:16.519 --> 00:22:19.680 Fan Festival, they're gonna launch the Part two, a five 448 00:22:19.720 --> 00:22:23.039 point five Part two, which is going to finalize this story. 449 00:22:23.039 --> 00:22:26.359 And it's gonna be it's gonna be wild. Because I've 450 00:22:27.079 --> 00:22:30.119 played Final Fantasy fourteen for a bit over over two 451 00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:32.599 years at this point, but it's all been contextualized in 452 00:22:32.640 --> 00:22:35.640 Shadow Bringers, which is what it's the current expansion. Like 453 00:22:35.680 --> 00:22:38.119 I was playing leading up to it, it came and 454 00:22:38.160 --> 00:22:40.640 I covered it and I did it all Like I 455 00:22:40.680 --> 00:22:41.960 love this game. I feel like I've been playing it 456 00:22:42.000 --> 00:22:45.279 for ten years. But if only like Shadow Bringers is 457 00:22:45.319 --> 00:22:47.799 the thing that that hooked me in, so to leave 458 00:22:47.839 --> 00:22:53.319 it behind is gonna be a really weird feeling. But yeah, great, great, great, 459 00:22:53.319 --> 00:22:54.839 great game. And I kind of already talked about a 460 00:22:54.839 --> 00:22:57.599 near replicant, because you can check out my preview. I've 461 00:22:57.640 --> 00:23:02.240 been reviews coming soon.

So I don't know if any 493 00:24:35.680 --> 00:24:37.480 of you guys have heard about it at all. 494 00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:39.839 I've heard a little bit about it on some hubbub 495 00:24:39.880 --> 00:24:40.319 on Twitter. 496 00:24:40.440 --> 00:24:43.200 Yeah it's uh so, it's it's there's like, this is 497 00:24:43.240 --> 00:24:45.119 a game you could play on like a browser or 498 00:24:45.160 --> 00:24:47.759 something a long time ago, and they decided to take 499 00:24:47.799 --> 00:24:49.640 the concept of it and apply it to like a 500 00:24:49.640 --> 00:24:52.680 full game. And it basically the concept of it is 501 00:24:53.200 --> 00:24:56.480 you're a person who's recently passed away and you have 502 00:24:56.559 --> 00:25:01.480 to get ferried away to where for your you're headed 503 00:25:01.640 --> 00:25:04.960 in like your you're afterlife, and the person running the 504 00:25:04.960 --> 00:25:08.359 ship forces you to look back on the life that 505 00:25:08.400 --> 00:25:10.559 you led so that they can tell the gatekeeper a 506 00:25:10.599 --> 00:25:14.480 story to convince them to let you onto the good 507 00:25:14.519 --> 00:25:19.359 area of that. And so the idea is you play 508 00:25:19.359 --> 00:25:22.319 through these are these moments play out and every time 509 00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:24.079 you have to play it with your webcam, and every 510 00:25:24.079 --> 00:25:26.880 time you blink, the moment's over and it moves on 511 00:25:26.920 --> 00:25:31.759 to the next one. So like it'll it'll play like 512 00:25:32.200 --> 00:25:36.119 a real like sad moment in your life with your family, 513 00:25:36.119 --> 00:25:39.240 where like your your parents are upset because they can't 514 00:25:39.279 --> 00:25:41.359 make ends meet and they're trying to like feed you, 515 00:25:41.400 --> 00:25:42.759 and they're not trying to let you know because you're 516 00:25:42.759 --> 00:25:46.359 a little kid, and you'll blink and then all of 517 00:25:46.400 --> 00:25:48.279 a sudden, you'll be at the point where you're you're 518 00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:50.359 sitting at the beach after you've snuck out with your 519 00:25:50.400 --> 00:25:53.039 first love you ever had, and you're like, I don't 520 00:25:53.039 --> 00:25:54.519 want to blink for this because I want to like 521 00:25:54.559 --> 00:25:58.799 see all the good stuff, but you can't, like keep 522 00:25:58.799 --> 00:26:01.200 your eyes open. And it's interesting because it's it's a 523 00:26:01.279 --> 00:26:04.240 very emotional game, and the fact that they're forcing you 524 00:26:04.319 --> 00:26:07.480 to keep your eyes open already makes your eyes water, 525 00:26:09.160 --> 00:26:11.400 and so your eyes are already watering because you want 526 00:26:11.400 --> 00:26:14.720 to see these good moments play out, and then you 527 00:26:14.799 --> 00:26:17.359 just like as as the game goes on, you kind 528 00:26:17.359 --> 00:26:19.519 of learn like a weird twist to it and you 529 00:26:19.559 --> 00:26:22.559 see a whole bunch of other stuff. It's I don't 530 00:26:22.559 --> 00:26:24.200 want to ruin it for anyone. It's like an hour 531 00:26:24.200 --> 00:26:26.440 and a half long and it's like ten dollars on Steam, 532 00:26:27.119 --> 00:26:30.519 but I'd highly recommend it if you have like an 533 00:26:30.559 --> 00:26:33.160 afternoon where you don't have anything else afterwards, because it'll 534 00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:35.720 totally kind of throw off your day a bit, maybe, 535 00:26:37.039 --> 00:26:39.599 but it's it was it was really really good and 536 00:26:39.640 --> 00:26:43.400 really really emotional, and I kind of like that idea 537 00:26:43.440 --> 00:26:46.880 of like moments can be gone at any moment, and 538 00:26:46.920 --> 00:26:48.559 you've got to sit there and kind of enjoy them 539 00:26:48.599 --> 00:26:50.680 while they're there. Don't blink. 540 00:26:51.359 --> 00:26:53.480 I mean, yes, a blinking thing is the thing that's 541 00:26:53.599 --> 00:26:57.880 really just adds a whole other level to it. 542 00:26:58.359 --> 00:27:00.880 Yeah, there are so many moments I just get. I 543 00:27:00.880 --> 00:27:05.079 was literally upset at myself because I was like, there's 544 00:27:05.119 --> 00:27:07.599 one way you get a really good letter from the 545 00:27:07.640 --> 00:27:11.599 person that you're in a relationship with, and I got 546 00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:13.960 like a moment of relief for the character, which made 547 00:27:14.000 --> 00:27:16.359 me automatically blink before I could read the second half 548 00:27:16.400 --> 00:27:20.359 of the letter, and I was upset at myself. It 549 00:27:20.400 --> 00:27:23.480 was basically them being like, hey, I like you too. 550 00:27:23.519 --> 00:27:25.960 I feel the same way. But and then it had 551 00:27:26.000 --> 00:27:27.319 like all this other stuff I never saw. 552 00:27:28.279 --> 00:27:31.440 Oh hate to not see it. 553 00:27:31.440 --> 00:27:33.279 It's it's pretty cool. 554 00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:36.440 Yeah, it's it's really interesting and I'd recommend it to 555 00:27:36.480 --> 00:27:39.440 anyone who's uh was kind of into that stuff. 556 00:27:40.079 --> 00:27:42.839 Yeah. I feel like I've said as much before, but 557 00:27:43.480 --> 00:27:46.319 I'm very selective when I play games now. I feel 558 00:27:46.359 --> 00:27:49.400 like I'm too old to be to gamble on my time. 559 00:27:49.559 --> 00:27:52.880 I guess like there's a lot of games that seem interesting, 560 00:27:52.960 --> 00:27:56.559 but honestly, at this point in my life, I'm like, 561 00:27:56.640 --> 00:27:58.519 I need to have a sure fucking bet that what 562 00:27:58.559 --> 00:28:00.960 I'm gonna spend time with is going to pay off. 563 00:28:01.400 --> 00:28:03.799 And I feel like I've I've come to really understand 564 00:28:04.359 --> 00:28:07.440 what hits like, what my tastes really are, and what 565 00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:10.480 resonates with me that thousand percent sounds like. Also, like 566 00:28:10.519 --> 00:28:12.720 you said, it's like what two hours max, So it's 567 00:28:12.759 --> 00:28:14.480 not even that long, say. 568 00:28:14.359 --> 00:28:17.960 Less game store as well, there you go, what you've 569 00:28:17.960 --> 00:28:18.400 been playing? 570 00:28:19.559 --> 00:28:25.920 So I have been playing a bunch of things. Primarily 571 00:28:25.920 --> 00:28:31.000 I'm gonna speak about the Backbone, which I purchased. For 572 00:28:31.079 --> 00:28:34.799 those unfamiliar with the Backbone, it's basically a little controller 573 00:28:34.880 --> 00:28:37.640 that you jam your iPhone into so you can play 574 00:28:37.839 --> 00:28:42.000 video games on it. And it's really good. Yeah, it's 575 00:28:42.039 --> 00:28:42.680 super good. 576 00:28:42.759 --> 00:28:45.359 Like everyone anyone who's mentioned it on Twitter has said 577 00:28:45.440 --> 00:28:46.599 nothing but good things about it. 578 00:28:46.680 --> 00:28:49.640 Yeah it is, So it's good. So I've got mine 579 00:28:49.680 --> 00:28:53.240 hair Like, it's really small, really simple design, elegantly designed, 580 00:28:53.279 --> 00:28:56.359 and like it's real good to play games on the iOS. 581 00:28:56.640 --> 00:28:59.000 So I've been digging into a bunch of games. I 582 00:28:59.039 --> 00:29:03.640 bought it for a fantasic yeah game. Yeah, so because 583 00:29:03.680 --> 00:29:05.519 I bought it primarily for that because I was like, 584 00:29:05.559 --> 00:29:08.200 I need it's a it's a guc game, so I 585 00:29:08.279 --> 00:29:09.200 got to check it out. 586 00:29:09.400 --> 00:29:12.079 Shout out to the check out that my interview with 587 00:29:12.119 --> 00:29:14.160 the Vibes. 588 00:29:14.640 --> 00:29:18.680 Yeah, and also the platinum game World of Demons. I 589 00:29:18.680 --> 00:29:21.160 think it's called which is. I played a bit of 590 00:29:21.240 --> 00:29:25.400 that and it's been fun. Where it really shines, though, 591 00:29:25.599 --> 00:29:29.880 is when you use the iPhone to kind of do 592 00:29:29.960 --> 00:29:33.839 remote play on PlayStation and stuff like that, because then 593 00:29:34.039 --> 00:29:37.000 you can play like something like a Persona or you 594 00:29:37.000 --> 00:29:39.559 can even play You can play most games perfectly fine 595 00:29:39.599 --> 00:29:43.359 with it borring any delay, Like if you are used 596 00:29:43.400 --> 00:29:46.519 to playing a first person shooter on controllers, it will 597 00:29:46.559 --> 00:29:50.119 feel good. I have no qualms with Like I feel 598 00:29:50.160 --> 00:29:55.640 confident that if I wanted to Internet connections kind of permitting, 599 00:29:56.240 --> 00:29:58.759 if I would feel fine about jumping into an Overwatch 600 00:29:58.759 --> 00:30:02.920 match right now. And that's that's that says a lot 601 00:30:02.920 --> 00:30:05.480 about it. The only thing that I think is not 602 00:30:05.640 --> 00:30:10.319 great is the dpad. It feels like a weirdly squishy 603 00:30:10.359 --> 00:30:13.000 at times. It feels like it's designed more to navigate 604 00:30:13.039 --> 00:30:19.079 menus and for like precise kind of aiming or anything 605 00:30:19.119 --> 00:30:22.039 like that. But then the the thumbsticks are super good, 606 00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:27.279 like so really really good. The thing that I'm excited 607 00:30:27.319 --> 00:30:32.960 about is like having like remote access to Xbox games 608 00:30:33.000 --> 00:30:35.680 and game Pass and that kind of stuff through through 609 00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:41.200 the Backbone. So but the the the iOS has itself, 610 00:30:42.319 --> 00:30:44.559 the Arcade has got a bunch of games that are 611 00:30:44.640 --> 00:30:48.960 real good with controllers, like and Cozy growths great on it, 612 00:30:49.039 --> 00:30:51.559 and Backbone has their own app where you go into 613 00:30:51.599 --> 00:30:53.240 there and you can like add games to it and 614 00:30:53.279 --> 00:30:56.559 it will also highlight games. The actual controller itself has 615 00:30:56.599 --> 00:30:58.799 got a bunch of cool features, like you can take 616 00:30:58.839 --> 00:31:01.039 snapshots and record videos in the same way that you 617 00:31:01.079 --> 00:31:03.480 would in a modern controller, and also share that stuff 618 00:31:03.480 --> 00:31:06.839 to Twitter and stuff, so it functions like a real 619 00:31:06.920 --> 00:31:09.720 good controller. Like there's a lot of gulf out there 620 00:31:09.720 --> 00:31:15.640 for buying accessories for mobile games, but this is one 621 00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:20.079 that I can like recommend without reservation, Like don't don't 622 00:31:20.079 --> 00:31:23.880 waste your time looking, just buy a Backbone. And I 623 00:31:23.960 --> 00:31:26.640 know that a bunch of other people have I've seen 624 00:31:26.920 --> 00:31:31.000 have been playing and using it, and like Greg, for example, 625 00:31:32.160 --> 00:31:35.680 Greg kind of funny approved like like I put a 626 00:31:35.720 --> 00:31:37.599 picture of it up and primary like one of the 627 00:31:37.599 --> 00:31:39.240 reasons I bought it was because I heard him talking 628 00:31:39.240 --> 00:31:40.720 about it so much. I was like, I'm going to 629 00:31:40.799 --> 00:31:44.200 try it. It's one hundred dollars. It's the worst case scenario, 630 00:31:44.319 --> 00:31:46.519 you know, I just you know, it's not I'm not 631 00:31:46.519 --> 00:31:48.359 thinking too much money into it. I mean, one hundred 632 00:31:48.359 --> 00:31:51.200 dollars a lot of money, but still Poller. 633 00:31:51.279 --> 00:31:53.640 Oh my god, I got that managing editor money. You 634 00:31:53.680 --> 00:31:54.200 know what I'm saying. 635 00:31:54.240 --> 00:31:57.880 Oh, it's like San Francisco. That's two meals. 636 00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:04.240 Greg posting about it you now, but also Brian Altano 637 00:32:04.359 --> 00:32:08.200 and so like I I'm very very interested. And also 638 00:32:08.240 --> 00:32:11.839 because we have a big flight next week, I'm like, 639 00:32:11.960 --> 00:32:16.039 oh yeah, Cozy Cozy Grove is generally the game that's 640 00:32:16.039 --> 00:32:17.880 making me want to get it because Cozy Grove is 641 00:32:17.880 --> 00:32:21.960 so good. So my shit, I can't remember we've talked 642 00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:24.519 about it before. It's basically like an animal crossing meat 643 00:32:24.559 --> 00:32:28.640 spirit Farer type situation. It's on Apple, Arcade, NPC and 644 00:32:29.000 --> 00:32:34.799 Switch too, but like it's it's kind of I don't 645 00:32:34.799 --> 00:32:37.319 particularly enjoy the touchscreen part of it to move around, 646 00:32:37.759 --> 00:32:40.960 and so I was like, what if I got a backbone. 647 00:32:40.960 --> 00:32:43.079 I can like, if you're going to get I wouldn't 648 00:32:43.319 --> 00:32:47.359 if you've got to San Francisco meals worth of money 649 00:32:47.519 --> 00:32:49.160 to spend. 650 00:32:49.400 --> 00:32:51.759 I just I just spent to San Francisco meals worth 651 00:32:51.839 --> 00:32:52.880 on a new suitcase. 652 00:32:53.160 --> 00:32:55.920 So yeah, I would. I wouldn't like hesitate, like because 653 00:32:55.960 --> 00:32:57.839 I know that it's one of those things where you 654 00:32:57.960 --> 00:33:01.000 just it feels good to know that you've got it. Yeah, 655 00:33:01.200 --> 00:33:03.279 and like I've I've played a bunch of Crazy Grove 656 00:33:03.319 --> 00:33:05.640 as well, and I'm excited to check that out on 657 00:33:05.680 --> 00:33:09.680 the backbone. But yeah, that's that's That's been the thing 658 00:33:09.680 --> 00:33:12.359 that I've been checking out a lot. I've also been 659 00:33:12.359 --> 00:33:16.240 playing a lot of Metal Solid too. I'm streaming it, 660 00:33:16.559 --> 00:33:22.480 uh TV watch my stream Let's go. But that game 661 00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:26.799 is phenomenal. So I bought the original Gog version, which 662 00:33:26.839 --> 00:33:30.680 is just absolute trash. 663 00:33:30.759 --> 00:33:33.880 Like similar because when I was playing. 664 00:33:34.480 --> 00:33:38.480 Yeah, it's it's as bad as it's like really really weird. 665 00:33:38.559 --> 00:33:41.759 But someone in my chat try lends shot to you 666 00:33:42.039 --> 00:33:44.519 and was like, Yo, there's there's this mode out there. 667 00:33:44.599 --> 00:33:48.200 Try it. And I applied the mod and it makes 668 00:33:48.279 --> 00:33:51.920 that game excellent. It introduces like full screen support, wise 669 00:33:52.119 --> 00:33:56.799 full screen support, it's got better textures, it's got uh 670 00:33:56.960 --> 00:34:00.519 it adds in support for dual Shock for on Xbox 671 00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:03.400 One controllers, and now I'm just like having a great 672 00:34:03.400 --> 00:34:06.640 time with it. So solitude popping as straight. And the 673 00:34:06.720 --> 00:34:09.920 last thing I got was the which I highly recommend, 674 00:34:10.039 --> 00:34:13.800 is they released the WAA asks book Ask Your Water 675 00:34:14.800 --> 00:34:18.599 Words of Wisdom from Toria Water, Nintendo legendary CEO. And 676 00:34:18.960 --> 00:34:21.400 I'm not that far into it, but it's really, really, 677 00:34:21.480 --> 00:34:25.480 really good because like they opened by saying, you know, 678 00:34:25.559 --> 00:34:27.360 Iwata was a person who didn't really like to talk 679 00:34:27.400 --> 00:34:31.719 about himself in his interviews, and that very much is 680 00:34:31.760 --> 00:34:34.239 the case. Like whenever he was talking to anyone, he 681 00:34:34.280 --> 00:34:36.920 would be talking about the game itself and very rarely 682 00:34:37.079 --> 00:34:40.559 it would be about him. But he had a relationship 683 00:34:40.639 --> 00:34:44.599 with a public a website called the Hobo Niktoy Shimbun, 684 00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:48.920 which was like just an online publication, and I believe 685 00:34:48.960 --> 00:34:52.599 gumpey Yakoi was involved in that publication. Gumpey Yakoi being 686 00:34:53.000 --> 00:34:57.719 you know, another legendary Nintendo developer, worked on a bunch 687 00:34:57.719 --> 00:35:00.920 of devices and software games, and so he would pop 688 00:35:01.039 --> 00:35:05.159 up and give interviews to them, and they felt a 689 00:35:05.199 --> 00:35:07.760 little more personal. So that site has got probably one 690 00:35:07.760 --> 00:35:11.000 of the best collections of personal anecdotes about the life 691 00:35:11.079 --> 00:35:14.119 and times of Iuaa. And what they've done is they've 692 00:35:14.119 --> 00:35:16.239 put together with this book that is as much about 693 00:35:16.360 --> 00:35:18.840 him as it is about those I asks. It's a 694 00:35:18.880 --> 00:35:24.480 mixture of WA's own personal history and it's kind of fascinating. 695 00:35:24.519 --> 00:35:29.760 And there's like a everyone you know whenever someone dies 696 00:35:29.920 --> 00:35:32.519 that's famous and you're like, oh, that sucks, man, And 697 00:35:33.280 --> 00:35:35.159 it can hit different when it's someone that you know. 698 00:35:35.599 --> 00:35:37.400 It was within the industry, and I remember it was 699 00:35:37.519 --> 00:35:40.320 a really really like there was like a dark cloud 700 00:35:40.360 --> 00:35:41.559 over the industry for a while. 701 00:35:41.679 --> 00:35:43.559 I remember being the office, in the office. 702 00:35:43.840 --> 00:35:46.119 Yeah, I think I wrote it. I wrote the obituary 703 00:35:46.199 --> 00:35:51.639 for it, and it was rough, and and reading this 704 00:35:51.760 --> 00:35:54.800 book you realize very quickly why it hit people so hard, 705 00:35:54.960 --> 00:35:57.800 like that dude was. I don't know if he's going 706 00:35:57.880 --> 00:36:00.320 to ever be recognized as like a genius in the 707 00:36:00.400 --> 00:36:03.480 same way that people absolutely throw their toys out of 708 00:36:03.519 --> 00:36:07.039 the pram about Elon Musk and Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, 709 00:36:07.119 --> 00:36:10.079 But for me, he transcends them in so many ways. 710 00:36:10.159 --> 00:36:12.599 And the fact that no one talks about him that way. 711 00:36:12.639 --> 00:36:15.800 He's just a humble person, says it all. But like 712 00:36:15.800 --> 00:36:18.280 I'm reading this book and like tearing up at this 713 00:36:18.519 --> 00:36:22.519 the loss of this guy who's clearly he through and 714 00:36:22.639 --> 00:36:25.000 through just wanted to make games and he wanted to 715 00:36:25.079 --> 00:36:27.400 make people happy and bring games to as many people, 716 00:36:27.800 --> 00:36:30.159 and you realize, like, damn, this dude was. He was 717 00:36:30.239 --> 00:36:32.119 like a one of a kind, like once in a lifetime. 718 00:36:33.039 --> 00:36:35.559 It's almost like I'm glad that I got to exist 719 00:36:35.599 --> 00:36:39.119 at the same time as this guy. And yeah, I 720 00:36:39.239 --> 00:36:42.199 highly recommend reading it. It's just sweet and really nice 721 00:36:42.239 --> 00:36:47.840 and supports his legacy. So legend Yeah on Amazon. Rest 722 00:36:47.920 --> 00:36:50.079 in peace, Rest and peace to the Goat. 723 00:36:50.760 --> 00:36:56.119 Well, I haven't been doing or watching anything new because 724 00:36:57.400 --> 00:37:02.880 I've mostly just been packing and so the only things 725 00:37:02.920 --> 00:37:06.000 I've really done is at the weekend. I did watch 726 00:37:06.199 --> 00:37:09.719 a couple of movies for the first time. I watched 727 00:37:09.920 --> 00:37:12.559 Good Fellas, which i'd never seen, never seen Fast Times 728 00:37:12.599 --> 00:37:15.320 at Bridgemont High, and had never seen The Grand Budapest Hotel. 729 00:37:15.840 --> 00:37:17.480 So I had like a little weekend where I watched 730 00:37:17.480 --> 00:37:19.880 all of them. But genuinely, the main thing I've been 731 00:37:19.960 --> 00:37:23.119 watching and enjoying has been School of Rock, which I 732 00:37:23.239 --> 00:37:26.559 watched again last night because we were in the car 733 00:37:26.679 --> 00:37:30.639 on Sunday driving back from the park and we were 734 00:37:30.679 --> 00:37:33.639 listening to Immigrant Song by led Zeppelin. And so then 735 00:37:33.679 --> 00:37:36.280 I went on like this little thing where on Monday, 736 00:37:36.320 --> 00:37:38.800 while I was packing, I was watching Thor Ragnar Rock. 737 00:37:39.519 --> 00:37:41.760 And then on Tuesday, Tuesday, while I was packing, I 738 00:37:41.840 --> 00:37:44.519 was watching a School of Rock. So you can sense 739 00:37:44.559 --> 00:37:50.239 the theme here, thank you to led Zeppelin. Other than that, 740 00:37:50.840 --> 00:37:54.800 I have I'm reading a book What Big for Me 741 00:37:55.159 --> 00:38:02.199 well too on this podcast now. So I've been I've 742 00:38:02.199 --> 00:38:04.880 been struggling with my reading for a long time, which 743 00:38:04.920 --> 00:38:07.000 is weird because I read. I used to be such 744 00:38:07.039 --> 00:38:09.239 a voracious reader, Like I used to read so much 745 00:38:09.280 --> 00:38:11.039 and so quickly, and then I just really fell off it. 746 00:38:11.119 --> 00:38:14.599 And I'm struggling with seeing a lot of words on 747 00:38:14.800 --> 00:38:19.039 screen or like my kindle or like in a book recently. 748 00:38:19.159 --> 00:38:22.800 And so I actually started reading one because I think 749 00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:26.360 as Christine Steimer posted on her into the story, she 750 00:38:26.639 --> 00:38:32.559 was posted a book from this author, Brandon Sanderson, and 751 00:38:32.679 --> 00:38:34.519 it was a different book that I remember my sister 752 00:38:34.599 --> 00:38:36.400 had read years ago and she really enjoyed it. And 753 00:38:36.519 --> 00:38:39.320 then the reason I'm bringing this up is because I've 754 00:38:39.360 --> 00:38:43.760 never appreciated an author more. If you search Brandon Sanderson, 755 00:38:44.440 --> 00:38:46.960 you go to his website and like there was literally 756 00:38:47.000 --> 00:38:51.679 a landing page that says where to start with my books, 757 00:38:51.960 --> 00:38:54.840 and it's literally like, if you like fantasy, you should 758 00:38:54.920 --> 00:38:57.400 read this. If you don't really like fantasy as much, 759 00:38:57.519 --> 00:39:01.079 you should read this. And then he's like given, if 760 00:39:01.119 --> 00:39:03.679 you skip down the page, he gives a little synopsies, 761 00:39:04.599 --> 00:39:07.400 and then he gives a sample chapter of each one. 762 00:39:07.519 --> 00:39:12.719 And so I was just immediately kind of on board 763 00:39:12.760 --> 00:39:14.719 with it because I felt like I wasn't, you know, 764 00:39:15.000 --> 00:39:18.159 risking my you know, I was actually investing in a 765 00:39:18.199 --> 00:39:20.440 purchase that I had write up about a bit. And 766 00:39:20.519 --> 00:39:24.440 so I started to read Alantriss, which is kind of 767 00:39:24.519 --> 00:39:28.920 fantasy book three different points of view. It's about this 768 00:39:29.159 --> 00:39:34.719 old society used to be like essentially God's very beautiful, 769 00:39:34.880 --> 00:39:38.480 essentially magical ethereal beings, and then one day this beautiful 770 00:39:38.639 --> 00:39:42.159 society collapses. And then fast forward a few years and 771 00:39:42.320 --> 00:39:46.679 then you have this derelict city and people develop this 772 00:39:46.840 --> 00:39:49.559 disease and just get thrown there. But the disease is 773 00:39:49.880 --> 00:39:54.719 like you live forever, but you are essentially dead. So 774 00:39:54.840 --> 00:39:57.880 there's a bit in the first chapter where the main 775 00:39:57.960 --> 00:40:01.360 character stubs his toe and breaks it and that will 776 00:40:01.400 --> 00:40:09.559 never heal. So he's like constantly sons like Perda. But 777 00:40:10.519 --> 00:40:12.840 I'm honestly I want to bring it up just because 778 00:40:14.239 --> 00:40:16.920 we are in the middle of a pandemonium and I 779 00:40:16.920 --> 00:40:18.519 don't know a lot of people seem to be struggling 780 00:40:18.599 --> 00:40:21.239 with just like finding stuff to enjoy it. But this 781 00:40:21.440 --> 00:40:24.440 book is super easy to read, really enjoyable, and I'm 782 00:40:24.519 --> 00:40:26.400 kind of blasting through it and I have to. 783 00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:32.440 Call it a pandemonium, pandemic, pandemic, a little demi. 784 00:40:33.480 --> 00:40:35.000 So I'm really enjoying as a treat. 785 00:40:35.400 --> 00:40:36.880 You have a little pandemic as a tree. 786 00:40:37.679 --> 00:40:45.320 Not definitely not. That's the thing that gets me canceled. Wow, spoken, it. 787 00:40:45.360 --> 00:40:47.519 Took forty minutes, But is. 788 00:40:49.840 --> 00:40:50.639 Is it a good read? 789 00:40:50.760 --> 00:40:50.800 Like? 790 00:40:50.880 --> 00:40:51.480 Are you enjoying it? 791 00:40:51.599 --> 00:40:54.559 I'm really enjoying it, and I think it's because it 792 00:40:54.679 --> 00:40:57.239 reminds me so much of a book series that I 793 00:40:57.320 --> 00:41:01.280 loved as a kid called The Belgariad by David Eddings who. 794 00:41:01.960 --> 00:41:07.679 The weird thing about David Eddings is his cousin is 795 00:41:08.039 --> 00:41:13.880 the David Eddings who worked at Gearbox Oh oh at 796 00:41:13.960 --> 00:41:16.360 least I think they were related. I want to say 797 00:41:16.360 --> 00:41:19.079 they were related. But anyway, I used to absolutely love 798 00:41:19.239 --> 00:41:21.280 David and Lee Eddings when I was a kid, and 799 00:41:21.480 --> 00:41:24.199 this book reminds me a lot of their writing. 800 00:41:26.440 --> 00:41:29.159 Yeah, I'm on this this author's website and they've got 801 00:41:29.199 --> 00:41:32.360 one with steel Heart, which seems interesting. 802 00:41:32.639 --> 00:41:35.559 Yeah, because he has like an of the he has 803 00:41:35.719 --> 00:41:37.400 I can't remember which book it is or it's a series, 804 00:41:37.440 --> 00:41:39.679 and it's like, this is my Lord of the Rings 805 00:41:39.719 --> 00:41:40.920 meets saying. I was like, okay. 806 00:41:41.639 --> 00:41:46.880 He also looks like Tim Willitts he does, which is upsetting. 807 00:41:47.840 --> 00:41:48.039 Tim. 808 00:41:48.079 --> 00:41:49.920 What a you're doing writing books in the side you 809 00:41:50.039 --> 00:41:50.320 never know? 810 00:41:51.320 --> 00:41:52.199 So that's what I've been doing. 811 00:41:52.920 --> 00:41:53.119 Cool. 812 00:41:53.239 --> 00:41:55.800 All right, let's move on to one of the things 813 00:41:55.800 --> 00:41:58.039 I want to shout out before we move on.

There's different timing for different regions, 1067 00:55:24.679 --> 00:55:26.719 and then there's time limits on how long you can 1068 00:55:26.800 --> 00:55:30.599 each play you can play each demo for, so it's 1069 00:55:30.800 --> 00:55:33.280 just it's just a lot. It's again Charlie Day standing 1070 00:55:33.320 --> 00:55:36.519 in front of his yes, his thing. I was just 1071 00:55:36.599 --> 00:55:40.480 gonna say, yeah, it's very confusing.

My introduction to RPG's was 1209 01:03:03.599 --> 01:03:07.480 an amazing summer playing Mario RPG, Final Fantasy VI, and 1210 01:03:07.639 --> 01:03:10.559 Chrono Trigger.

Yo, Kevin, 1214 01:03:21.159 --> 01:03:24.800 holl at your boy, because holy fuck yo, I was 1215 01:03:25.440 --> 01:03:27.960 yo in an advanced reading classes through all of elementary 1216 01:03:28.000 --> 01:03:29.840 school in middle school. You know why, because I played 1217 01:03:29.840 --> 01:03:32.079 those three games and Final Fantasy four you can add 1218 01:03:32.079 --> 01:03:35.519 that to the list as well, because holy shit. And like, 1219 01:03:35.719 --> 01:03:38.159 ever since then, I've been chasing that high. I kind 1220 01:03:38.199 --> 01:03:40.199 of got it with Dais X the Original when I 1221 01:03:40.280 --> 01:03:42.199 finally got around to it a little bit with Star 1222 01:03:42.199 --> 01:03:45.000 Wars and I O or Public twenty seventeen was the 1223 01:03:45.119 --> 01:03:48.079 first time that I felt like I had hit that 1224 01:03:48.719 --> 01:03:50.880 same kind of peak because that was when I played 1225 01:03:52.119 --> 01:03:55.119 Yakuza zero, I played Persona five, and I played Near Automata, 1226 01:03:55.760 --> 01:03:58.320 So another trifecta right there, and I'm like, holy shit, 1227 01:03:58.440 --> 01:04:01.880 this recontextualizes what I think games can be and what 1228 01:04:02.000 --> 01:04:04.920 games mean to me, So holy shit, and then again 1229 01:04:05.440 --> 01:04:08.880 I think last year in twenty twenty with Yakuza like 1230 01:04:08.920 --> 01:04:13.000 a Dragon, Persona five Royal, and then like also with 1231 01:04:13.079 --> 01:04:16.400 a Final Fantasy fourteen with Shadow Bringers. Like I think 1232 01:04:16.519 --> 01:04:19.159 my time at GameSpot have been defined by those series 1233 01:04:19.199 --> 01:04:23.360 in those games in many ways near Yakuza Persona and 1234 01:04:23.440 --> 01:04:28.039 Final Fantasy fourteen in particular, and it's like a new peak, 1235 01:04:28.159 --> 01:04:29.840 it's a new high. It's a new paradigm for me, 1236 01:04:30.519 --> 01:04:33.280 especially when it comes to RPGs, and like, now, that's 1237 01:04:33.480 --> 01:04:34.840 that's the only thing I want to play. I only 1238 01:04:34.880 --> 01:04:36.880 want to play games that hit those same eyghes, which 1239 01:04:36.920 --> 01:04:38.599 is what I was talking about earlier when I need 1240 01:04:38.679 --> 01:04:40.960 to be very deliberate about how I spend my time 1241 01:04:41.000 --> 01:04:43.639 playing games because these are big time investments and I'm 1242 01:04:43.679 --> 01:04:46.519 better fucking be sure that that them shits is on point. 1243 01:04:46.840 --> 01:04:50.159 So oh my god, yo keV oh, let's. 1244 01:04:49.960 --> 01:04:53.639 Fucking go baby. I think the thing that it kind 1245 01:04:53.679 --> 01:04:57.440 of highlights and is the same thing where I basically 1246 01:04:57.480 --> 01:04:59.599 played those games in the exact same fashion in a 1247 01:04:59.719 --> 01:05:02.639 row as well, and like a bunch of others, like 1248 01:05:02.719 --> 01:05:06.559 I had long stretches of playing RPGs. The high I'm 1249 01:05:06.639 --> 01:05:09.039 chasing that I'll never get. I don't think any of 1250 01:05:09.159 --> 01:05:11.320 us will get is the amount of time you had 1251 01:05:11.360 --> 01:05:14.119 it as a as a as a youngster where you 1252 01:05:14.159 --> 01:05:18.320 could play that many rpges back to back and just 1253 01:05:18.440 --> 01:05:20.679 do it. Now it's like we have to play two 1254 01:05:20.760 --> 01:05:23.920 or three hours here and there. So the high I'm 1255 01:05:24.000 --> 01:05:30.519 chasing is like high. The high I'm chasing, I'm high 1256 01:05:30.519 --> 01:05:33.880 I'm chasing always, man, But like it's attainable. It's just 1257 01:05:34.039 --> 01:05:36.119 I know, I feel that way when i sit down 1258 01:05:36.159 --> 01:05:38.880 on a weekend every now and then I'm like sink 1259 01:05:39.079 --> 01:05:41.480 like five six hours into a game. When I'm done, 1260 01:05:41.519 --> 01:05:44.639 I feel like, yeah, we're still like I'm still a 1261 01:05:44.679 --> 01:05:48.679 gamer still but still got it. Yeah, still got it. 1262 01:05:48.840 --> 01:05:50.400 And like the same thing happens when we have like 1263 01:05:50.480 --> 01:05:52.440 a long old watch session or something like that. I 1264 01:05:52.519 --> 01:05:54.760 come off and I'm like, yeah, I feel like I've 1265 01:05:54.800 --> 01:05:57.159 done a game of pump, you know how like you know, 1266 01:05:57.360 --> 01:06:00.280 you know, uh, gym rats going to a gym. Yeah, 1267 01:06:00.480 --> 01:06:02.239 I do a quick couple of sets and they're. 1268 01:06:02.119 --> 01:06:05.400 Like, yeah, I feel you literally feel small. Yeah yeah 1269 01:06:05.480 --> 01:06:07.159 that was good small thumbs. 1270 01:06:07.760 --> 01:06:08.679 But yeah I do. 1271 01:06:08.840 --> 01:06:09.480 I do small. 1272 01:06:10.119 --> 01:06:13.119 I do realize. And now that we had it good. 1273 01:06:13.159 --> 01:06:15.079 When we were younger, we just could just sit down 1274 01:06:15.119 --> 01:06:17.079 and play these games for hours and hours and hours 1275 01:06:17.079 --> 01:06:20.239 and then not think about any responsibilities or feel our 1276 01:06:20.280 --> 01:06:22.280 body slowly and like crumbling beneath us. 1277 01:06:22.559 --> 01:06:25.800 Yeah, mine maybe isn't from when I was a kid, 1278 01:06:25.840 --> 01:06:28.760 although like I do have amazing memories of just playing 1279 01:06:28.840 --> 01:06:31.719 through like all the crash Banic group games with my 1280 01:06:31.840 --> 01:06:34.320 sister and just enjoying that time together, like passing the 1281 01:06:34.400 --> 01:06:38.440 controller and you know, not being playing games in an 1282 01:06:38.519 --> 01:06:42.480 age pre Internet where all you had was time and 1283 01:06:42.880 --> 01:06:45.159 effort and you'd keep throwing yourself at the same problem 1284 01:06:45.239 --> 01:06:47.599 and like doing that over and over again. The one 1285 01:06:47.920 --> 01:06:50.760 the summer that I'm chasing is the summer of twenty 1286 01:06:50.880 --> 01:06:54.639 ten when so that was at university at the time, 1287 01:06:54.760 --> 01:06:58.519 and university summers are way longer than even school summers. 1288 01:06:58.599 --> 01:07:01.199 It was like two and a half months off And 1289 01:07:01.400 --> 01:07:04.159 in my summer of twenty ten, I did Red Dead, Redemption, 1290 01:07:04.800 --> 01:07:08.800 then BioShock, then Mass Effect one, then Mass Effect two. Ooh, 1291 01:07:09.320 --> 01:07:12.159 that was a lovely time. 1292 01:07:13.119 --> 01:07:15.679 Damn Legends after Legends. 1293 01:07:15.480 --> 01:07:18.320 That was so nice, And then I had to go 1294 01:07:18.400 --> 01:07:18.920 back to Uni. 1295 01:07:19.960 --> 01:07:20.599 I hate to see it. 1296 01:07:21.679 --> 01:07:23.679 Ben. What about you, Well, how are you chasing. 1297 01:07:24.360 --> 01:07:28.559 Yeah, I actually, like I've been so hardcore and playing 1298 01:07:28.599 --> 01:07:31.599 games like literally my entire life that it's hard to 1299 01:07:31.599 --> 01:07:38.239 pick like one specific point. But I guess maybe back 1300 01:07:38.280 --> 01:07:40.360 when I was at like the height of my time 1301 01:07:40.480 --> 01:07:45.840 playing World of Warcraft before it got like it was 1302 01:07:45.880 --> 01:07:47.559 a turbulent time, it went up and down a lot. 1303 01:07:47.639 --> 01:07:49.440 There are some good times and some bad times. But 1304 01:07:49.519 --> 01:07:52.440 the height of when I was I was in like 1305 01:07:52.599 --> 01:07:55.039 my guild and I was I was part of like 1306 01:07:55.079 --> 01:07:58.679 a forty man rating team. And because I was still 1307 01:07:58.760 --> 01:08:00.800 kind of like young, and they they recognize me and 1308 01:08:00.800 --> 01:08:02.119 they're like, hey, you're here all the time, and you 1309 01:08:02.159 --> 01:08:04.880 know what you're doing be an assistant leader and help 1310 01:08:05.039 --> 01:08:07.159 like bring new people in. I was like, I'm too 1311 01:08:07.239 --> 01:08:09.760 young to be leading people. This isn't right, this isn't 1312 01:08:10.039 --> 01:08:12.599 what it is, but it it was cool to have 1313 01:08:12.920 --> 01:08:15.239 that time and kind of be able to give it 1314 01:08:15.320 --> 01:08:20.039 that much dedication to kind of help lead like a 1315 01:08:20.119 --> 01:08:23.079 group of forty people through a giant raid in a 1316 01:08:23.199 --> 01:08:26.960 video game that I've never met before. And I think 1317 01:08:27.000 --> 01:08:29.399 about that a lot. And ZIV is a different type 1318 01:08:29.439 --> 01:08:32.119 of ammal experience, but I don't know if it'll ever 1319 01:08:32.279 --> 01:08:34.720 kind of touch that at least for rating that weird thing. 1320 01:08:34.840 --> 01:08:38.680 But it was such a weird deal and I loved it. 1321 01:08:39.000 --> 01:08:42.319 Hell yeah, Tom'm you trying to read this? Next one? 1322 01:08:42.560 --> 01:08:42.720 I do? 1323 01:08:43.039 --> 01:08:47.239 This comes from Just a Box. The only video games 1324 01:08:47.960 --> 01:08:50.840 based on books I can think of without a movie 1325 01:08:51.279 --> 01:08:58.760 intermediary or the Witcher games. All right, let me finish. Oh, 1326 01:09:00.359 --> 01:09:05.119 most video games that aren't an original IP scene seemed 1327 01:09:05.119 --> 01:09:07.960 to come from movies. Are there any books or series 1328 01:09:08.039 --> 01:09:11.199 that you think would adapt well into video games? I 1329 01:09:11.279 --> 01:09:14.079 feel like you could do some cool work with Sandersen stuff, 1330 01:09:14.279 --> 01:09:18.800 especially Stormlight Archives. I've read in this book by Brandon 1331 01:09:18.880 --> 01:09:22.880 Sanderson called Alantris that NOE like. 1332 01:09:23.079 --> 01:09:25.960 I was genuinely spooked when because I put a call 1333 01:09:26.000 --> 01:09:27.600 out for questions and Just a Box put this in 1334 01:09:27.720 --> 01:09:32.399 today and I was like, that's weird, that's suspicious because 1335 01:09:32.399 --> 01:09:36.199 I'm just reading it. But yeah, literally, the only ones 1336 01:09:36.199 --> 01:09:37.680 I can think of that came from books are the 1337 01:09:37.720 --> 01:09:41.560 Witcher Metro and I know that because I interviewed the 1338 01:09:41.720 --> 01:09:43.680 author of the Metro books and that was a time, 1339 01:09:44.199 --> 01:09:45.840 Like he was a very nice guy, but he's very 1340 01:09:45.960 --> 01:09:50.760 very sunglasses on in the darkened room, quite intense about 1341 01:09:50.760 --> 01:09:51.239 his books. 1342 01:09:51.920 --> 01:09:56.039 Type tale I write stories about being in tunnels because 1343 01:09:56.039 --> 01:09:59.119 all I see is dark moosh. All right, shit, man, 1344 01:09:59.359 --> 01:10:01.439 the games are five, the books are fire, So all right, 1345 01:10:01.640 --> 01:10:02.159 keep doing you. 1346 01:10:05.880 --> 01:10:09.720 Any books a series that would adapt well into video games? Dude, 1347 01:10:09.760 --> 01:10:11.880 the Mandalorian, I know it's not a book, but the 1348 01:10:11.960 --> 01:10:12.800 Mandalorian is. 1349 01:10:13.720 --> 01:10:16.119 That's Mando video game. I don't know. I read a 1350 01:10:16.159 --> 01:10:19.319 lot of I mostly read nonfiction, so I don't really 1351 01:10:19.479 --> 01:10:20.760 I can't really think I get my I get my 1352 01:10:20.920 --> 01:10:24.520 I get my fiction fix from video games. I'll say 1353 01:10:25.399 --> 01:10:27.600 I can't read. Yeah, reading stuff, you know, stuff in 1354 01:10:27.640 --> 01:10:33.239 the streets, Oral Bros. You could turn that into a 1355 01:10:33.319 --> 01:10:34.920 video game. It's called judgment. 1356 01:10:35.560 --> 01:10:35.920 There you go. 1357 01:10:37.000 --> 01:10:39.920 I was gonna say it, like I it's it's weird 1358 01:10:40.239 --> 01:10:45.560 playing God of War after reading Neil Gaiman's. 1359 01:10:46.680 --> 01:10:47.680 Mythologyology. 1360 01:10:47.760 --> 01:10:51.920 Yeah, because I think Norse mythology is so ripe for 1361 01:10:52.199 --> 01:10:54.279 taking those stories in turning him into other things. And 1362 01:10:54.359 --> 01:10:56.239 so I think God of Water does a really good job. 1363 01:10:56.720 --> 01:11:00.159 I wouldn't say they like took necessarily from games, but 1364 01:11:00.239 --> 01:11:02.840 it's like there's a lot of stuff to explore within 1365 01:11:02.960 --> 01:11:03.560 that realm. 1366 01:11:05.039 --> 01:11:09.640 Different if we're talking about series, turn all the best 1367 01:11:09.720 --> 01:11:13.520 anime into not Arena Fighters check out the check out 1368 01:11:13.560 --> 01:11:16.000 the article on GameSpot dot com by one Tomorrow Hussein, 1369 01:11:16.199 --> 01:11:18.800 who talks about why anime should not be adapted to 1370 01:11:18.920 --> 01:11:20.600 arena fighters because we've had enough of it. 1371 01:11:21.479 --> 01:11:25.039 Sucks.

So thank you, thank 1409 01:13:26.199 --> 01:13:30.479 your Carbon. But I guess I'll start by answering this question, 1410 01:13:30.760 --> 01:13:34.279 jazz Punk. I thought jazz Punk was incredible. Jazz Punk 1411 01:13:34.279 --> 01:13:37.640 doesn't necessarily have laugh out loud moments, but every time 1412 01:13:37.800 --> 01:13:40.560 I'm just like, I was just in a in I 1413 01:13:40.680 --> 01:13:44.359 was in such a giddy mood and then they hit 1414 01:13:44.600 --> 01:13:48.159 the like that game hits you so frequently with like giggles. 1415 01:13:48.600 --> 01:13:51.479 It's a very giggly game. But also like, jazz Punk 1416 01:13:51.600 --> 01:13:56.439 just has an incredible soundtrack, aesthetic and the way to 1417 01:13:56.479 --> 01:14:01.399 Louis Hernandez who who made that game, And yeah, if 1418 01:14:01.479 --> 01:14:04.039 y'all haven't check out jazz Punk, it is. It is 1419 01:14:04.119 --> 01:14:08.239 the most I wouldn't say it's obscure. It's extremely different, 1420 01:14:08.479 --> 01:14:11.359 and there's something about the art style and that low 1421 01:14:11.479 --> 01:14:17.000 poly kind of aesthetic that really really hits shit. Jazz 1422 01:14:17.039 --> 01:14:20.000 Punk ain't nothing like it. 1423 01:14:21.079 --> 01:14:22.199 I've never played that one. 1424 01:14:23.119 --> 01:14:25.600 What I know it was twenty four Twenty fourteen was 1425 01:14:25.680 --> 01:14:28.920 so dry. Twenty fourteen was so fucking dry. Jazz Punk 1426 01:14:29.039 --> 01:14:31.319 was the game of the year, straight up, Wait, what did. 1427 01:14:31.239 --> 01:14:33.840 We give game of the year and twenty four show 1428 01:14:35.239 --> 01:14:37.199 there's not very many chuckles to be found. 1429 01:14:37.000 --> 01:14:39.359 In Transistor came out in twenty fourteen. I was like, Okay, 1430 01:14:39.359 --> 01:14:41.359 it's Transistor Or it's jazz punk. 1431 01:14:41.520 --> 01:14:47.520 And then Tolkien swept in, swooped in and stole the 1432 01:14:47.520 --> 01:14:48.279 game of the Year from us. 1433 01:14:48.560 --> 01:14:51.600 I hate hate to see it. Well, shadow Wardor is 1434 01:14:51.600 --> 01:14:52.159 pretty good. 1435 01:14:53.680 --> 01:14:57.000 Funny games, So I'm definitely shying this one out because 1436 01:14:57.079 --> 01:15:00.319 it just dropped on Switch today. It came out PC 1437 01:15:00.560 --> 01:15:04.439 last summer. I think it's on phone, it's on iOS two. 1438 01:15:04.479 --> 01:15:07.760 But there is no game. Wrong Direction. No, there is 1439 01:15:07.840 --> 01:15:12.039 no game. Wrong Dimension is amazing and the funniest game 1440 01:15:12.079 --> 01:15:18.119 I've ever played. It is basically a game that takes 1441 01:15:18.199 --> 01:15:22.520 the piss out of other games and is very very 1442 01:15:22.600 --> 01:15:26.760 self aware, and you're basically, I don't know, like you're 1443 01:15:26.880 --> 01:15:28.760 you're player trying to play the game, but the game 1444 01:15:28.800 --> 01:15:32.640 itself is trying to stop you from playing it. And 1445 01:15:34.079 --> 01:15:37.840 there is no game run Wrong Direct, Wrong Dimension. God, okay, 1446 01:15:38.680 --> 01:15:42.600 but it's on one direction. Wow, But no, it's basically 1447 01:15:42.760 --> 01:15:46.399 like so, for example, it kind of takes the piss 1448 01:15:46.479 --> 01:15:51.760 out of adventure games in a way, and then there's 1449 01:15:51.800 --> 01:15:53.439 a there's a part where you're kind of in an 1450 01:15:53.479 --> 01:15:56.399 adventure game you're just trying to progress through, but then 1451 01:15:56.800 --> 01:15:58.920 you can turn the TV around and you see the 1452 01:15:59.079 --> 01:16:01.359 back of the game and the different sets, and you 1453 01:16:01.439 --> 01:16:04.920 can like pull on levers and different scenes come in, 1454 01:16:05.079 --> 01:16:07.680 and that's how you progress through the level, and you 1455 01:16:07.760 --> 01:16:11.319 basically break it to progress. It's very very difficult to explain. 1456 01:16:11.359 --> 01:16:13.279 I'm probably doing a terrible job of it. But you 1457 01:16:13.399 --> 01:16:17.159 have this narrator, which is the the program, the game itself, 1458 01:16:17.199 --> 01:16:20.199 who's like, no user, leave me, I am not a 1459 01:16:20.279 --> 01:16:23.079 game leave like telling you the whole time trying not 1460 01:16:23.319 --> 01:16:27.560 to play it. It's very very very funny, like genuinely 1461 01:16:27.640 --> 01:16:30.399 laugh out loud moments and dropped on switch. It was 1462 01:16:30.479 --> 01:16:34.399 in the Nindi's event Please please play it. 1463 01:16:34.800 --> 01:16:35.239 I like it. 1464 01:16:35.760 --> 01:16:39.960 That's why I sir, I'll go next. I like funny games. 1465 01:16:40.039 --> 01:16:42.800 I like things with jokes. Uh, there are a lot 1466 01:16:42.880 --> 01:16:45.920 actually that I really like Grim Fan. You gotta let 1467 01:16:45.960 --> 01:16:47.159 me build up to it first. 1468 01:16:47.880 --> 01:16:50.239 Oh my bad, my bat. I was like, oh, I know, 1469 01:16:50.479 --> 01:16:51.319 every time I see. 1470 01:16:51.119 --> 01:16:53.760 It, like a bunch of cool mini shouts like man 1471 01:16:53.840 --> 01:16:56.439 Stanley parable makes me laugh all the time. I like 1472 01:16:56.520 --> 01:16:59.840 that one. It's got some pretty okay jokes and there's 1473 01:16:59.880 --> 01:17:02.159 some times a lot of good thing alongs, but also 1474 01:17:02.319 --> 01:17:06.119 just grim Fandango. I like, you know me too well, 1475 01:17:06.279 --> 01:17:07.479 and that's what I love about it. 1476 01:17:07.560 --> 01:17:08.439 I do, I really do. 1477 01:17:09.079 --> 01:17:11.039 But yeah, Grim Fandango is a game that makes me 1478 01:17:11.079 --> 01:17:16.079 feel emotions good and and and and sad good, none 1479 01:17:16.119 --> 01:17:21.119 of them bad, but just the way that that thing 1480 01:17:21.239 --> 01:17:25.479 is written in the jokes that are just constantly throughout 1481 01:17:25.960 --> 01:17:28.399 through like the dialogue, choices of random things you can 1482 01:17:28.439 --> 01:17:33.319 interact with that game. That game shaped me a lot 1483 01:17:33.560 --> 01:17:38.920 growing up. And I can't recommend that adventure game enough 1484 01:17:39.000 --> 01:17:39.439 to anyone. 1485 01:17:39.880 --> 01:17:40.640 It's just it. 1486 01:17:41.199 --> 01:17:44.000 It's it's so good. I love Manny Calavera and all 1487 01:17:44.039 --> 01:17:47.600 of his friends and this mechanic demon pal who's got 1488 01:17:47.680 --> 01:17:50.479 only one purpose is to fix cars. 1489 01:17:51.279 --> 01:17:54.600 Many Cara Cavrella, the host of the Giant Piece. 1490 01:17:54.680 --> 01:17:58.039 Yeah, that's that's the first first thing they did right there. 1491 01:17:59.479 --> 01:18:02.000 But I don't think of a game that like genuinely 1492 01:18:02.079 --> 01:18:05.000 made me laugh. I remember being amused by all I 1493 01:18:05.119 --> 01:18:06.840 really liking the vibe of a bunch of games like 1494 01:18:06.920 --> 01:18:09.119 Grim fan Nango and Psychone. It's a lot of Tim 1495 01:18:09.199 --> 01:18:13.680 Shaeffer Double Find games like that kind of stuff. But 1496 01:18:15.119 --> 01:18:17.720 there's a game that like truly made me like laugh out, 1497 01:18:17.840 --> 01:18:19.800 Like this is hilarious video game. 1498 01:18:21.159 --> 01:18:23.359 I think yakas are like a dragon did that to me, 1499 01:18:23.479 --> 01:18:25.760 But it doesn't really fit the question because like you 1500 01:18:25.920 --> 01:18:28.680 like mo yeah, but it's like mostly you like it 1501 01:18:28.760 --> 01:18:30.560 mostly because it made you laugh.

But if you want to keep 1605 01:23:12.920 --> 01:23:14.640 up on all sorts of all the dumb stuff I do, 1606 01:23:14.920 --> 01:23:17.600 or just see me spam pictures of my stupid character 1607 01:23:17.680 --> 01:23:20.720 in zip, you can find me on dot com at 1608 01:23:20.800 --> 01:23:24.479 ben Jenka. I'm so sorry. In advance. 1609 01:23:26.960 --> 01:23:27.680 Team, what about you. 1610 01:23:28.640 --> 01:23:31.600 I'm on Twitter to Haes just doing stuff they you know, 1611 01:23:31.880 --> 01:23:35.800 just typing, typing things into the Internet, and that's it. 1612 01:23:36.359 --> 01:23:38.319 Tweets type tweets. 1613 01:23:38.399 --> 01:23:42.079 That's why I fired fire tweets. The everyone needs to 1614 01:23:42.159 --> 01:23:46.199 check out TAM's Ramadan thread. That's that's very good prime content. 1615 01:23:48.199 --> 01:23:52.359 I'm on Twitter, Lucy James Games. I'm I worked on 1616 01:23:52.560 --> 01:23:56.399 a mass effect video with Jordan that's coming up on Sunday. 1617 01:23:56.479 --> 01:23:59.159 So Jordan did a really great script about the First 1618 01:23:59.279 --> 01:24:03.000 Contact War, which is some hot mass effect law that 1619 01:24:03.159 --> 01:24:08.319 basically explains it's weird because it's barely mentioned really within 1620 01:24:08.399 --> 01:24:11.039 the context of the games, but it actually sets up 1621 01:24:11.439 --> 01:24:15.560 like just why everyone hates humanity at the beginning of 1622 01:24:15.640 --> 01:24:17.840 Mass Effect very very well. And so Jordan did this 1623 01:24:17.920 --> 01:24:20.680 really great script and I edited it. That's going up 1624 01:24:20.720 --> 01:24:25.399 on Sunday, and then other than that, I talked about 1625 01:24:25.399 --> 01:24:27.399 it a little bit.
