God damn it Ridley Scott. You can watch us record the podcast live on twitch.tv/superbestfriendsplay

All right, I love the revolution that Pat didn't know that the movie knockoff was about exploding jeans Okay, we're actually right here. No, I know. Okay. No, that's not hot now. We're hot. I'm hot I really like the revelation that Pat didn't know that the movie knockoff was about exploding jeans I don't know you actually wanted to start on that one. Okay, that's one of those things that you told me and I could look it up Right now, but I don't want to and no, I don't believe you know you you don't believe me But you also don't I Explicitly don't want to believe you and I don't want proof that I'm that you're right It's counterfeit jeans that explode when you like your ass. How does it explode poor stitching? Oh

Okay, that's what that changes the context Significantly, yeah, yeah, because when you said jeans that explode I thought you meant like you put the jeans on and your legs like explode You don't mean like combustion. You just mean they rip apart. Yeah, maybe okay Okay, cuz I thought you meant like combustion nighters in it. I feel like that's a relatively vital detail. I don't know Okay, are you more or less? Are you going to see it before you see alien? Yes, I'm asking if we're intrigued. Have you piqued our interest? I don't think you have I would that wasn't the goal. All right, never was well the goal is actually to

Put that Mac and me put that Mac and me clip in the podcast I mean, I I can it's very easy to do. I'm gonna see what other lips. I can get in there now that It seems like no one notices until it's too late. The Mac and me clip is a visual So if I put it in it's no you can hear you can and the podcast video You can totally hear like that kid flying down the cliff I Look, I just played it. Yeah, you can't even tell really have you if you listen to just the audio clip of Paul Rudd talking to Chris Evans and like a like backstage segments. He's like so I've been on Conan a lot

Yeah, yeah, yeah every every time and he's like, but why? Why do you do this? Just like I played it the one time and then I thought it was so funny You have to commit and and he's like towards the end where Conan's like you've been showing this clip on my show For 15 years and every time I ask you are you gonna show it? You're like no and you come up with good excuses like well the the company found out and they're like stop showing the clip But they never found out really so he's always showing it like and then and then Paul Rudd would explain that like his movie companies that he was doing promos for we're like stop showing that clip

You're not advertising the movie and he's like all right. Can I get two clip slots? I'll play the Mac and me one then I'll play your clipper or whatever you want and I'm like Paul Ryan is so amazing And I've seen that explicit episode of Conan where he's like, okay, listen cuz that's one of Conan was on the road I had all right. I showed the clip. All right. Here's the real clip from the movie The best part of the whole thing is the fact that it The idea that Conan has no control over his show and the guest comes on and it's their power that makes It's like the gas it has control over the other parts

But all Conan can say is here's a clip from like this is 40 or like but whatever the code and production team Has to listen to the guest. They have no say in the matter no matter what he says Ant-Man Hanging out with Captain America telling him how he trolls fucking talk show hosts. It's just amazing. It's pretty good Oh, well, I hate to bother you, but I've completely lost all sound. Are you still plugged in? Yeah, I even unplugged myself and plug myself back and turn it around turn the little thingy around in it That's what I do. It's okay. Could it possibly be your headphones, sir? No Cut to the clip of Mac and me while we fix pretty much, right?

I got a tiny bit of Matt going Hello, I don't know Okay, oh if you yeah, did you just put your headphones into his thing? I'll be back There's thousands of backup You know, I tried both ports and it's fine. So it's okay. It'll be fine in the end What's up with you man, you know, honestly not much I mean it's just it's got to be more to you The ass week after a while, you know after a while of going through like what the technical issues and whatnot Which you know mixer is sorted OBS is sorted. Yes. Yeah stream is sorted. It's all sorted

You can't account you can't account for hardware, you know, you can't account for the bits that always Come up with all these don't go. Yeah, do your thing. That's mine, but those are yours Yeah, oh, I'd actually prefer to have those but I already sweated in these so okay, you don't want days Oh, well your sweat constant problem. Yeah Oh, are we doing it? Oh This is the extended cut. Yeah, this is Mac and me please gentlemen. We might as well stall for time here All right, yeah, hey man

The kids oh shit, what's gonna happen? Oh, no, it's in the wheelchair I've never seen this much little girl That kids Why is a puppy have to look like that? That's a good puppy. Yeah, no the Mac looks good, too Has anyone ever committed to watching the full movie Not me not I've known no one that does it. I don't even know what this movie the bomb shows up I don't remember this. I know there was a mom. What what the fuck?

So someone said this is a bad ET movie that's sponsored by McDonald's Like McDonald's features heavily in it. Wow, like that was a character that they were pushing. I don't I don't know Oh Well, we've now learned more about me than we ever knew that's super. Oh, that's super scary to see that He yeah, Mac pushes the kid out of the wheelchair No, none of us knew what actually happened milky Golem eyes like Disappated into the depths of the murky water. Holy shit. I don't like that Wow

You can see on the side it says Paul Rudd Conan That's a compilation of every time you showed it and it's six minutes long That's that may not sound like a lot, but when you watch it, you're like it's a marathon You want to get some popcorn out while you're watching it and Conan? You can see that halfway through this 15 year span He starts to be like it's gonna be the only just resigns to saying it in this dead way You know, I'm sure every part about that is that he looks like he's aging because of the clip Conan yeah, yeah, not not cuz it's 15 years

It's sorry. It's just I don't ever you when you see Conan I'm like Conan the barbarian and otherwise. I think of Conan. You know Conan in the late night My name was Conan. I'd call myself Conan and not Conan. Um, yeah, that's fair Yeah, now to truly appreciate I want to make sure that the everyone knows that you have to listen to it You can't if watching it detracts from it. So audio listeners you got the better version of that Yeah We'll just put Mac in me and to end into YouTube and you'll be fine. We now have podcast homework

We'll go on this ride together will we over a cliff and Into and to water I'll just put banana wooly in the seat next to you and you you won't know it's not me Yeah, and then I know I won't you can go over the cliff. No, I won't there you go Fucking kept that thing Why the fuck didn't I keep it? That's what you have regrets about keeping not the dragon dildo I'd like one of those current login God, that's damn it. I'm literally the only person never got it It's one of why watch it once I asked you before how was your actual week? That's what I was alluding to. Oh, unless you have another

Segu well, no the the truth is is that I mean I was gonna wait for Pat to finish off there But I didn't have one so there's that okay. I think I know what actually happened my head. What happened to your headphones I think even when they're off and being used as like pure headphones I think they still have to act in a powered state and I think it ran out of juice finally So are you gonna do this podcast without headphones? Yeah, pretty much. These are too big I can't they they're falling off when I put them on my head. Wow, okay Retract you do you walk with like buds or anything like that? No, no, I'm good. I'm gonna do it raw. All right raw All right, they were tracked though. I guess that's that's how we do it. They were tracked. It's still like oh

Well, they're man-sized headphones so I can understand my head is gigantic. His head is gigantic. That's ridiculous I don't know. Yeah. Mmm. That's right. Diculous. Well All right. All right school style, right? Here is fine like those old singers that would put their finger in one of their ears block it and then just listen to the tone Anyway, so yeah, um the don't don't don't yeah, there's nothing here I got no week. So about you so you were just in a in a Lazarus pit for seven days. No, I I Like built I built furniture. I emptied boxes from my old place and I went to a wedding You had a week

There you go. It's not really a podcast week. That's it was weird because we had our wedding battle on Saturday It wasn't much of a battle. What is that huge? I know you like it's so funny the difference between How things are done out because like Matt puts the picture up and I was like I don't put the picture Yeah, yeah, I put the picture up and I and I just replied I was like oh shit. We're at a thing too and like I'm never scared Never scared. Yeah, because she's like, you know, don't be scared and Matt's like coming at it with the guns out attacking leprechaun Just whatever to be fair. I was his wife is just like, oh my gosh Then look how pretty you guys are here. She looks so good and I was just like thank you and Derek

From soft skeletons from fighting in grace. So we so we met in yeah in Seattle. We're like we're cute too But to be fair I want to apologize. I was kind of drunk. Oh what you had a wedding Okay, I wasn't okay. So there was a contest how many mints can you steal from the bar? So I didn't I didn't participate but David and Leanna David's like I stole a lot of mints And she's like I stole more mints than you and then he's like no no you didn't so we go to we go home We go to bed we get this text in the morning that David's like 55 Mints picture of all them on the table and we had a luxury house like 12. Oh, so you got your ass blown

That was not even a contest Crazy, I guess slowly turning in the stamper over there. They're they to be fair. They were free mints But with the challenge that's right. No, but you steal more than your allotted amount That's 58. I guess 50. I guess the only like notable thing about the wedding was that It was a Chinese Italian wedding. I've been to I've actually been to no I didn't I was next door to one of those. Yeah, okay Yeah, the groom was Chinese and the the bride was Italian and both families came out like in full regalia That must have had some good food. Well, that's a mix of no

It was pretty good food. It was pretty good food But like, you know, it's serious when they've got the goddamn like pursuit cutter Yeah, like, you know, and they got the the the Capacol and the Gabba Gula rather and and whatnot And you've got the like the the meat machines. They are in the order of seven exactly And it was it was an interesting kind of hall where like they knew that yeah Everyone's gonna be here and they're gonna be stuffed and lazy So after everyone's drinking in the in the general like area waiting for the reception to start We didn't realize that as you're standing around eating or girls and talking

They just moved the walls around and turned the area everyone was in into the reception. Okay, so they just built The thing around as you and then suddenly music and lights turned on you like oh that was the dance floor Yeah, no, it was it was kind of the same of mine where it was there was a reception area We're just drinking waiting and they had like hors d'oeuvres or it was like it was like a lamb hawk Yeah, and they gave me a napkin and I'm like I'm trying to eat it and it's going real badly Then they're like, okay move to this next room and just as we're moving we turn and we see fog start rolling in I like that I like when they know everyone's fat and lazy and they build it around you

Yeah, they bring the party don't worry. We have this we got I guess actually I Kind of forgot, but yeah, I did play arms I did do the the punch test and I did play arms a good game Yes, it is the gate. It is a very good game. It's very fun. Um, it reminds me a lot of Pokken Where are you like what's about moving moving and yeah moving and dodging and then like if I can You're playing fantasy strike on fisticuffs. Yeah, it does remind me of the thing you're saying is like

Execution doesn't really matter that much. No, it's making the right decision at the right time And that's it because like arms like fantasy strike everything is basically just one button or one thing or whatever exactly And and because you know everyone is Because like throwing is such a tempting thing to do such as big damage and you know pulls the guy in and but you know you know you have this like like Game where like throwing is basically like what you can expect to be coming at you a lot of the time at the beginning I suppose but like but like when punches come in there are going to be a throw you can still punch that those them out Yes, or you can block or you can dodge. We can't block it. No, if it's a throw you can but if they're punches

Yes, yeah, and or you can jump and then the air maneuvering really adds like some a lot of fun to it So like I was playing as a ninjara. Yeah, I was a master mummy a lot and his air dash is really good Well, his his fucking block when he's blocking and someone throws a punch. He gets a free teleport Yeah, I didn't know that okay if someone throws a punch at you and you block and if you successfully block He automatically teleports to the left or the right and you just Cool, wow super good that way, but like he doesn't do a lot of damage Yeah, and you know, I was trying to get the hang of like all the different arm abilities Yeah, was there a standout that you really liked? Uh, I I know that I was having a hard time with

Noodle girls laser Yeah, because it's on such a delay Exactly, so I understand that there's a it's very I can see the how it's strong if you set it Combine it with something else, but like you're committing to it being out there So you don't have the ability to always come back with like a combo as strong as other characters can I really like the big heavy like a bowling ball a wrecking ball thing the master mummy ones Yeah, especially if you pair it with something that's fast So you have someone dodge something that's fast and then you just like that that's where when I started playing it after like my second match

I played a little bit of PAX Eastbath my second match was like, okay. This is so good especially when like in this in this Demo whatever there's a limited amount of arms and there's gonna be more in the main game. I'm like that's that's I mean I'm trying to think of another fighting game or any type of other fight thing that has that I guess it's kind of like variants and MKX where your special moves it's it's it's equipment, you know I mean like let's let's call it what it is. It's a good man It's quite also reminds me more of something like the armored core versus mode than any actual like traditional fighting game. Yeah, or Insanely, yeah, no, but like a robo a little bit. Yeah

It's about your kit. Yeah, your body has some special but in this case, it's just each arm but you can mix and match for each arm and I really one thing I really like is that they show you the damage numbers. I think that's a really cool thing You get to see right away like okay Mummy's has a throw that does like 50 more damage than the average Mummy master mummy replenishes his health if he blocks exactly so just standing just doing a neutral block just regain your health It's slow, but I mean it's really interesting So the fact that the numbers are out there it gets you to quickly understand like what weapons are

Stronger here or like better at this or that like you can kind of very quickly see the applications because you know The damage values right away. Is there a character you didn't like that you played. Um, I Only hates Twintel Wasn't No, cuz I mean I honestly like because of the way the punch test was it was like you could just kind of do what you can With what you with what you get? I like Ninja hour a lot And I I missed his mobility when I didn't have it, but I think I think I pride the most trouble with noodle girl Yeah, right men men I think I men men for the win-win. Yeah, I think I had the most trouble with it with just her dragon

I spent and then the other thing is that like so so yeah Let me just summarize the thought like the game is really good and fun and and playing local two players really fun as well That is that is down and working and it's what screen right split screen exactly And because you're punching and at the game is vertical like it makes like the way the screen is split You're fine. You're super fine. You don't need all that horizontal space exactly, you know, and you're focused on the other player What wasn't fun about the punch test and perhaps in the final mode is the party mode because the way that set up is baffling for some reason where you can go online with two people, uh-huh, but it will put you into random game types and Oftentimes that'll include one of you not playing

So you're like you'll have a bubble with the main player and then your buddy second player and you're floating around joining like different matches and it'll sometimes pull in like a Solo player here a solo player there and then you guys they become a team and you do two on two, right? But then sometimes it'll pull in solo solo and then make you do three versus each other This feels like this is like why do those like, you know quick match in many games a little forego Like a lot of matchmaking considerations. Yeah character picks This feels like the fast like the fastest quick match of like what it what is available bam Yeah, if it's not if that's not fixed in the final build

What it should be is like if you link up with a one friend on Overwatch and you have like the green line connecting you play together They always throw you guys but but then you don't get into a match if it doesn't have two open spots I take a little but but I mean what the thing is the thing about that is that like because it does Something like where it grabs the same players, but then it just either it arbitrarily cuts one out or doesn't I find that Silly and I find it should always have the two players playing together. No, I think so too Or you know what I mean or like and sometimes it'll go solo But till it player two goes up, you know, I was playing just by myself and I like the party mode and that like

Okay, now it's gonna be the V-ball which I really like the second ball mode. Yeah, I wasn't too I wasn't a fan of it I love it, but I mean again, it's party mode So I know for sure that it's like it's there for a variety and I'm glad that we have variety But I'm not gonna be playing what a what a liked more than that is when just you're in the ninja stage the the sloped Stairway stairway and one-on-one. That's what I'm like. Oh shit. Okay. Now now we're gonna go Yeah, and I had although like stage disadvantage is huge there like high ground is so much better I I if there was I wasn't I guess I usually was on the high ground I think about it because you because it's the same in shooters where it's simply looking up

Means you have less range to like target and play with and when you're looking down It's your whole screen. I loved Helix's stage like with the the glass The glass guys in the test tubes. Yeah, and just like punching around the Nintendo or a marketing firm can be like Oh, yeah, this stage is crazy because you got a punch around the things to get advantage I'm like, yeah, whatever. We'll see when you're actually playing it You're like, it's a huge advantage to hide behind and fucking curve punches around until until you smash through it Sorry, let me ask you guys about that because I didn't get hands-on on it. What control scheme did you guys use? So here's the thing the way it starts out

It does a tutorial that forces you to do motion controls right and then afterwards I switched to playing as Playing with the controller. Okay, I wanted one of you to tell me you use both, but here's the problem I use three different. Oh, yeah, but here's the problem is like I want so yeah I and I and I would switch to that but because of the way the party mode was set up It would constantly mean to play a versus match. We'd have to restart and Go back to the forced motion control tutorial. Okay, and then that first match that wouldn't up and that's because it's the global test punch I don't know. Yeah, so I

Got to do both and I like at first. I really didn't want to play with motion controls like at all I'm like, I just I know myself. I'd rather just aim with the put the sticks and buttons and whatnot But because of how inconvenient it was to keep switching back and you know, they're gonna use the motion I ended up getting used to them. Exactly. And in the end Compared to the other thing I played like these motion controls were functional and fine and weren't much of a problem My biggest issue with them is that movement requires tilting your hands Like your character just shifts to the left shifts to the right to walk around you have to treat Your hands as if they were sticks. Okay, like virtual. Yes

And That's one thing I just don't like it works But it feels clunky a little bit because I the simply like the the time it takes to switch Your hands and get the movement going now That control that is like you point them in different directions or is it all just like one bit Both your hands are one big analog stick. Well, it's if you punch with one hand and then you have to aim it Okay, and yeah, you are doing independent. How do you aim it when you're using regular? Yeah, I was gonna say one thing about that is you do you just flick the sticks left and right

And you curve them one thing about the motion controls versus the sticks as I find curving punches was a thousand times easier With motion because you you just go like that. There's so much more of a range of movement where the sticks I found maybe I mean I played I played primarily with traditional controls because I I did in handheld mode Then I took out the pro controller I liked it better in handheld mode just because I'm still not a massive fan of the switch Pro controller. Oh really? I love it. Uh, it's it's good But I much prefer the we use pro controller because it's it's it's chunkier and like I don't know it's just I just don't prefer it, but I I'll I'll use it. Yeah use it on street fighter

Yeah, I'll shoot fighter. I mean at the end of the day like I feel that like Because when I flick the sticks I find my punches go like this then they go like So so the way the curve as well But that's the thing is like if like at first I thought it was like wind jammers right where it's like You do like a half circle and then it's going to go and follow that motion But it's not like that because of the way the the punches work It's you throw it out and then you correct afterwards. Yeah, because it takes What a second so if you if you if you punch and then correct afterwards instead of trying to create the entire swoop

Yeah, it will Correct where you so with the analog sticks You're just waiting a little longer for you to correct and that because it's a sharper angle Well, no, it's actually you have more time because it's like you've tapped the stick up And then you're watching the whole thing happen Okay, whereas like when you throw a punch out with the motion you're engaged the whole time and kind of like trying to you know This is interesting to me because like because the the switch has the handheld mode Which is going to be a lot of people are going to be playing games

Nearly exclusively you you guys are playing it nearly Yeah, I use I mean I'd say I think the last time we talked about this I said I spent about 80 percent of the time playing in handheld mode And the rest of the time I dock it. Yeah, and like this is a situation where like It's kind of requires like traditional control viability. Like it doesn't have to be perfect Yeah, I remember seeing people complaining that like certain kinds of movement are considerably more awkward with the standard controller Well, it's just at the end of the day if you want to play this a lot You're you don't want a game that has like when you do a super you have to waggle

You have to do this because to do or all right So so you don't want a game that you're playing a lot of have forcing you to do that Yeah, well, I got a no matter what anyone says. Yeah, but it's Sure, but at the same time, you know at the same time. Well, if you're creating this game Are you telling me you're not gonna let people or or absolutely not like it's it's no no no It's fun that it's there and and but I just I'm just saying like I feel like anyone who's gonna like put time into it is gonna be like play this competitively. Yeah I got it. I need to probably why I imagine the actual thing is that are you gonna play this for 10 hours in a row?

Well, that's what I mean Like just check it out. Check it out. And here's here's the way I see it. Here's the way I see it, right? If to you this is gonna be the same way you played we boxing where Party time. Well, okay, but like friends come over, you know what I mean? And you're doing multiple things and or it's uh You're having a night out a party or whatever and you guys are just like, ah, fuck. Let's stick around and play some some arms Right, then. Yeah, absolutely stand up. Do some do some some uh, Motion controls in the same way you'd play like rock band or something. Yeah, and it's that type of activity

No, you're right, but if you're sitting at home on your couch playing a couple hours of arms Yeah, I think it makes more sense, you know, you know what I want to be the natural like and result of this I want like tech to be discovered that's only possible with each control I want like okay directional impacts are actually only possible with very specific hand motions But certain forms of guard ba ba ba are and so tier lists get organized based on one thing I can't say is that because of the movement controls, uh The idea that uh, what should we call it everything the the main idea behind the game seems to be like everything has such long Cool down, you know, so like your arms got to retract when you fail

Yeah, so when you're on a controller, you're gonna kind of be like you're gonna have to be patient With some movements and motions, you know, because like it's very it's it can be slow at times when you're not moving to control it Um, but it's very fun that party mode has problems and I don't intend to use it Uh, however, when you can pick your own modes and play the ones that you like I'm sure it's going to be a good time Because it was the only mode that was available as party mode just because it Through you into matches really quick because all this was was to get online data about how matchmaking data

We need to figure out what's right exactly I played it on the first day then I played it on the second the first like I had zero Problems like buttery smooth nothing no drops. No nothing second day like in the morning. Yeah, they're I disconnected from like maybe Out of like two dozen matches. I disconnected out of maybe half Did you have any super versus super moments where you could like? Yeah, because uh, like you're who was it someone shoots hurricanes like little whirlwinds It's either master mommy or ninja or someone's throwing that and then someone's doing a super to me and it was just Yeah, it was kind of a jojo fight at that moment one thing they do

Uh with the 2v2 is you guys are tethered together. Yeah, so yeah, it's interesting like that Well, it's interesting because I can I it's annoying, but I understand why they did it And like when you don't spaghetti arms all all over each other Well, no not even I think it's because another player can't then just go all the way when you sandwich because you can't sandwich some Team and when you do it's so fucking hard to get out or yeah It's like you're trapped in morgan's bullshit Yeah, and you don't know what's coming behind you and your focus is on one or the other And if your partner partner is leaving you high and dry and you're getting and you're like in between four noodle arms coming

It's kind of like morgan and goro had a baby and then their their baby is just Fucking narrowing you with all of its arms. Yeah, it's bad And and you see that you see that happen when you when you get put into a three way Is the only thing to do is like three way is super fun. Just because it's no, it's not Oh, I thought it was great. No, it's not three way is Like two people when it's two on one triple threat. Yeah, yeah, it's three way dance when it's a three way dance Like if two if whoever is looking at someone else If you look at the person they're targeting and you and you like two v one it

You cannot win and it's there's no there's no like um never give up. There's no, uh, uh For honor style like if you're skilled enough, maybe you can from this. I don't know. I mean, there was a punch test So like I'm making I'm making a judgment call nice and early here But it feel it felt almost impossible to to win just because of the flurry of punches coming at you And then occasionally a throw and like you're just like I'm recovering if I try to go on the offensive for anything There's no way I'm not going to get blasted. Well, I guess I found items and recovery I guess I found the three way dance fun because I was always the one that was doing that

Sure, I never got I played a three way dance. Maybe twice. I didn't get them I didn't get that a lot So when when I got when I got stuck in it like yeah, I I did that too I was like, I'm just not gonna I'm like we're all targeting each other and I'm like, no I'm gonna look at the other guy and we're just gonna two on one it and it was just like it was a joke It was a cake walk, you know, there's no chance but um arms is definitely uh, uh, it's if you have a switch It's a must it's a must that's gonna be a I don't know if it's a seller

But I will say that it is a part of it's a waifu seller I wouldn't call it a seller. I'd call it a justifier. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's quite essential to your collection God, you've already gone for a gun ever Yeah, I think the peacemaker is a little better. I like just like they're both good. They're both strong But I like just a fire a bit more Uh, and the and I played an ultra street fighter two. Um, how is it and ultra street fighter two is street fighter two I have some things to say about so for one the Uh, like can uh, evil violent can and evil re you are just the best their jokes

And the game the greatest because their jokes the game itself is kind of a joke Like there's if you pick them at all, it's just there's no point. It's the best There's no attempt at making it that busted. Yeah. Yeah And it it's we're talking like jump in basic combo ending and sure you can For full damage 100 kill. Yeah Or tatsu juggle into tatsu And if it doesn't kill if you drop the combo then they just get stars and then you just do it again That's ridiculous. I mean like those characters might not as well not even yeah. Yeah, it's it's a joke

It's like it's just wacky ass stupid fun. So you're paying the extra 30 dollars for yeah Well, that's that's the question right so you might as well like if you want to play super turbo and you want to play, um Online with people and whatnot then I haven't I didn't do any online. I don't know if you can turn them off I was about to say is there a fair of fucking cuz like third strike you can turn off gill, you know, like I don't know if they have that in this online mode, but it's ridiculous There's no game I might get two glares from across the table But I went to both games and I searched I have now clocked in more hours on ultra street fighter 2 than street fighter 5 Wow, um, not to say anything horrible, but

Book No, actually just playing online because I'm working on my computer And I I just start up arcade mode. I'm waiting for someone to render So someone joins up and then I just I just fight them and I've had Perfect online play so far. Okay, like I just played what is it? Guerrero on the ps4 like a month ago and it was fucking unplayable and that And that's because of the people doing the port. I assume so And I'm just like this this works very well. I'm like, yes, are they ludicrously unbalanced?

Of course, but you start having violent ken versus violent ken matches and it's probably the most fun as I'm going to ask Obviously with what you say. Oh, you start having fun. I'm going to imagine you were playing as violent ken online Yeah, okay. So are you saying that if you could have played with better online in sf5 with a completely broken and overpowered character You would have spent more time in sf5. Yeah, that's what I fucking thought. Yeah, okay I see. Yeah, uh, but wow, that's a That's the trick to get player retention. Just break it. Just make one character make rainbow mode Make rainbow mode all the time for one character and make the game bad Yeah, but but there's more so than that like other than street fighter

HD remix there are some things like I much prefer in this port like Completely axing udon's portraits where they tried to replicate what the st portraits look like Those are gone from every graphic filter. Now. It's just HD up res Like classic st portrait art, which I know this is a minor thing, but I'm just looking I'm like, oh god This this looks so much better like well, though a lot of the front end art and a lot of the art I saw was from Turbo revival. Yeah from nn or whatever which is weird and turbo revival straight super turbo art was the best Yeah, the game head when you go down the main menu like I have it right there

But like yeah, you see you see you'll see his art, but then there'll be two or three options that are that's been hd And it's then you'll see street fighter for real for a stupid way of the huddle You see the turbo revival art and then you see the way of the huddle and then you see the um the portraits for color edit Which the first and and most important test was a pass I successfully managed to go into color edit Yeah, I managed to go to skin color on dj and drag that slider all the way down To create the real the real version of them Color, it's pretty nice

Is he just a void with teeth and then I did the same for balrog and then balrog and dj became the true team The darkness taken over the street fighter world uh The the mode that should be called um, um dramatic battle buddy battle The mode that should be called dramatic battle is buddy battle as far as feels condescending for nintendo fans That feels like it is to be fair as cool as dramatic battle is that's something that's lost in translation from japan to english I think dramatic battle is perfect. I think so too as well. It's it's it's it's it's I prefer it, but it's like this is playing out the story. That is a japanese thing

Yeah, that yeah, but it's also a term that's like 20 years old at this point. So that being said, um In capturing the same spirit of what the whole game is dramatic battles are ridiculous and of course like you have Almost no chance of really losing good like just beasting on the how dramatic the computer I was talking you can only lose one round and then the game is over. There's no continues whatsoever You share the life bars and so that's how they kind of compensate for it I was talking to liam not sure you said this to you

He's like, uh, buddy battle's fine But it'd be cool if they could give you scenarios where you have various handicaps or uh life bars change you have super You don't have super. It's like your lot. No special moves. It would be it'll just change like challenge missions It would be cool if they did create little scenarios for it But they instead they just kind of like have you going up against like the heavenly four And and it's a very quick mode too. Like you don't go through the whole roster You go through like the the bosses and secret bosses and then the load's done Did you um, did you try the remastered uh sound effects and music? Yes

I I put that on I really there's a couple standouts So I'm like because basically street fighter for sound effects. I think Where they either had them redid just for this game I'm not sure if they did but a lot of it sounds really familiar to me So a lot of the new voice packs for characters like they're crystal clear They're new recordings or at least recent ones. There's some that stand out really bad like Dalsam is just over the top. He's like, he's like yoga teleport like I'm like, is this from street fighter four? I can't tell everyone else is fine

I mean, yeah, although like less we forget if english cammy now though Less we forget sonic boom from now. It's now. He's good in this. Yeah. Well, he's back. I was at the classic sonic boom Kind of yeah, it's it's japan all that. It's japanese voice actors. None of it's like the american cast from I like the hyper fighting version. Well, he sounds weird You mean you mean big bird sonic? Boom, which one? Sonica boo like that one. Oh, that's alpha. No, that's sonic. Sonica boo That's charlie. Is that alpha sonic kaboo is like cvs and out Alpha three summer soul because I think the worst one by yeah alpha three and cap cumbersome

Super version, which is just sonic boom. Yeah, that's that's the big bird one I hate that big bird one And the and the the new tracks were really nice too Yeah, and there's a violent can gets his track and also violent can I guess is now canon to The street fighter or universe because His ending makes it canon svc chaos was not enough of us It was not enough A marker. I don't know. It's kind of spoiler

svc street fighter too. I don't but it's a new ending I should I say it whatever let people go if they want to go. Yeah, but uh later, you know, um Or it's you you tube it whatever, you know But uh, yeah the the that's that's fun now that afro can is is A thing That they can actually possibly use at some point in the future if they ever wanted to Now we've been sandbagging it long enough. We should probably talk about way of the head. I had not tried it You didn't touch it. No. Oh my god. I wasn't on that stream that that would be a stream

So there's a special mode called way of the haddo, you know, oh that fucking thing first person ryu That uses street fighter 4 and street fighter 5 So it's a street fighter. It's a street fighter 4 ryu, but it looks more detailed So it's it's like but the shadow lugais that come out are like from street fighter 5. Yeah, and and and uh I think the bison is the bison's from 4 as well But again, they're improved models and then they're you're in a 4 stage and then the hide and the Training look are all from 5. So it's just a mishmash of bullshit But it doesn't matter because wow, it's terrible

And that's what you're paying the extra 30 dollars and the fucking way this the controller setup is is Like the way it detects your hand movements. It shows you the little like when you're doing a tutorial It shows you like almost there almost there green. Yeah So it's kind of like connect so you can see how bad it is And detecting your hand movements and the gyro system in general awesome And then it actually compensates by giving you the option to do I've never seen this you can go into movement controls and change the sensitivity on everything So you have like probably 10 15 different options with a number that you can go like, okay, uh still sensitivity

twist sensitivity um Forward thrust and like all the different things that you want to like find all the options that this mode deserves And you can fine tune it, but it doesn't matter because it's it's garbage anyway And even when I got it working, it was not fun and terrible and you hold your hands in a hadoken motion And it's like you gotta play this I could never get it going Sounds amazing and by the end I was like doing a tatsu motion Which is swerving your hands from left to right because that's because that's how Ryu does it

Yeah, no, you like doing like the stupid little pat dance, right? Yeah, it's you're doing that to do a tatsu But then he just starts doing hadokens because it thinks that my hands are rotating Uh, what do you do for srk? So sure you can you hold one hand still and the second hand goes up and that always works. Okay. That always works. That's cool But the absolute worst is to do a shinku hadoken. Oh, you turn your hand sideways. You gotta do it twice you should You turn your hand sideways, right? And the sticks have to be facing each other if they're not facing each other even slightly

You're not charging a hadoken properly. Why don't they let you do it twice? So you hold them in play in play lace. All right, so that they're facing each other You then press the inside buttons the really hard to press ones. Why wouldn't use the triggers? No It's not the trigger. No, shut up Like the triggers I think are for blocking. No blocking is crossing your hands. I forget, but you know, you're not allowed Just shut up So you press the fucking inside it's hard to press buttons And hold them and then you're charging a shinku hadoken and then you thrust your hands out

Okay, and it's fucking garbage. All right, like me I don't know much about like this area of video gaming and how to make it but like if you thrust twice to do a hadoken No, no, no, no, just just you bear with me. Let's go on this ride together If you do a second one and if it detects that you've done it in the space of like one second How would that not be easier for it to detect that you've done it because Because the normal thing of the normal flow of gameplay is doing as many as you can Because the game fucking sucks and you can't kill the you can't get it actually have to do it that Because it doesn't work. Oh, it doesn't work. Okay

And then you're getting five guys coming at you. Yeah, and you're trying to one by one hadoken them and it's not working So you're spamming it non-stop Obvious solution would have been to be able to detect You taking both controllers Yeah putting them facing each other like we'll be described Then having to pull them down to your hip And then having to put them back out for for that motion But that requires them to be able to determine whether or not they're going down or up

Which the controls should be able to tell them because of the hd. Whatever fucking what I think so but This is something I could see james small putting a dozen hours into This is a mode that I can unlock night's contract. Like I I like I feel I feel like this was a Switch tech demo that switch tech demo. They did internally that was lying around and then they threw it in We can get Why can't you just put a fighting game out

Why and so so so Um, that's a good question. The one the one cool thing about the mode is when bison shows up and fights you Right and he attacks you with Liam said it was the best part of it It's the best part of it is he attacks you with a Head stomp and you block it and you watch the first person head stomp of him bouncing backwards And like that would be cool and that was that was cool and you understand how weird that is Yeah, I totally it makes no sense. But whatever. He also flies into psycho crushers No, but I mean like you finally get the proper image of like how bizarre that looks as

I mean, yeah, yeah into the air but like what's coming on your head But like while while he's coming down is when you like you get the block down time is like bam And then he jumps back and that was a cool thing But otherwise a complete worry waste of a mode a complete waste of your your budget really good job goku Yeah, you know, hey, there's an art book in there goku simulator. It's a good art book Yeah, but I I thought it was I didn't realize it was actually just Um One of the already existing art books. I thought it was a new collection of of things put together. Yeah, no, but it's actually just

One it's the one with chun li on the cover. It's the one that's only on the cover And it's the one that goes through every artist individually like here's all uh, which is nice It's it's nice for a glance at every game because it has one through four Yeah, no, yeah, just one through four rufus was the latest thing that they had But it doesn't have any sketches of concept art that never showed up. You wanted you wanted bass. I wanted bass No kinkobra None of that fun stuff, you know So, you know, there's still better art books out there for each individual piece

You know and like the third strike art book you get to see the sketches of the frames You know of the characters doing their amazing animations. So Yeah, but it's cool that it's there I think it's the best art book you can get digitally included in a game, but that's that's I think for anything Yep, except for like maybe kickstarter like whatever did what about in slave game? I don't even I have nothing I have nothing for you here. Okay. So, yeah, you know, oh no, that was your non-week Yeah, I I completely forgot that I played those games non-week. I forgot that I played them. Um And and I guess

While we're on ultra shoe fighter 4 might as well just take a moment to use the the news Say ultra shoe fighter 4 ultra shoe fighter 2 When as well like get the news story out there that the whole capcom test thing Was actually a mistranslation. Yeah. Yeah. So what so it came out that that was a gaffer mistranslation Ultra shoe fighter 2 is not being held as a capcom test ransom for the switch But what the that's that became even without the translation thing that became really obvious a few days later with the monster hunter thing Yeah, what it was it was We what the statement was meant to say is we will watch how the system performs

Which is what any company would say And it's like oh if it continues to sell gangbusters Yeah, but I'm sure we'll wait like another year and they'll be like, okay That in our tests that we said we weren't having we did hey, let me ask you a question How excited are you for ultra street fighter 3 that includes the basketball minigame using the same? As if we wouldn't buy every version of third straight, but it also uses the bad shan model from 5 And it's just as bad wait, you know what I and it is wait 3d Basketball is the parry the parry challenge is the original game still there. Yeah, but it includes new characters

Such as completed 12 and human necro. So guess what totally broken guess what? Okay, but guess what that game is still awesome because it's one input and all it's all it all comes down to your timing Yeah, so whether i'm watching the game. No whether i'm watching hold on Hold on whether i'm watching the basketball coming at me from side or from first person view I'm just hitting parry. Okay parry Parry and that's fine. No, but it's not that you that's what you said. That's what you said No, I said the basketball game. I didn't say it was the same one. It's a new basketball game Red con and red con and no, it's not a retcon

Yes, the point is is that the mode is just as terrible as this one if it was shooting basketballs with bar balls And you have to do the same motion. That's not what you meant. That's not you said the basketball Realize that what you said and you cool and you fucked up you back it up It would be fine to be parrying first person and it includes no You fucked up I would pay for smashing the car with motion control. Sure. I would do that Sure, but you know what I'd actually pay for a third strike is what we didn't get Give me every version of street fighter three generations the anniversary version that we all thought we were gonna get

Yeah, we were gonna get with online edition never came Yeah, it all in all in one game where you can just make some match modes for the hell of it Well, not don't put on the switch because we put on everything because I'd love to I'd love to see a Third strike chuddling like hyper versus hyper street fighter two. Where are you able to mix? Yeah Yeah, and I'd love to see like second impact to boogie. You know, obviously like coming in and see how she ranks Dad with the online edition. That'd be fun. I just want one more last thing to say Street fighter two is that like like for me like it's it's still too expensive. It should have been $20 at most But like Canada it's extra. It's extra. I don't have to pay the Canada tax

So, um, that's literally what it's called. And but you also get extra sales tax compared to a lot of us states Uh, that if it ever does come down in price like if you want to play a good version of street fighter two I don't care for all those extra modes and like good online play like I I have a decent bp rating now Yes, and and the online play just works like I'm having fun with it like I was playing it on the way here So, uh, but it's still way too expensive for for 40 bucks, but whatever It ends up being like 52 or something with tax, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, uh, it it's just it's unforgivably expensive. Um When you think about when you think and especially when you consider the times we live in and what you're not buying with that money Yeah, you could you could buy

You could buy like Two or three good kickstarter games. Oh my god. Is it not worth it? Especially right now? Uh, but pat tell us about your week. Uh, I played rhyme for about 10 seconds Awesome. I just want I don't know I I loaded it up to to fuck around with it and then I went to play something else Didn't play anything new the only thing that I watched of note and I'm really hoping matt watched the last two episodes No, I didn't watch the last one. I watched the I watched one more. Okay, so that new twin peaks. There's four episodes out Matt is it on netflix? No

No, it's on crave tv and it's on showtime. So they're not dumping the whole season in one show No, what's really weird is they dumped the first four episodes in one shot. Yeah That's weird. So we want to try and do netflix type things but not but no then episodes are gonna this season is 18 episodes But then episodes are gonna come out regularly Like at a point more episodes came out this weekend Weird yeah, because like the the hbo not hbo the showtime thing They got their four episodes and then those were exclusive for like weeks Now it's showing on television. It's it's weird

But uh matt hit the nail on the head of like boy, you spend not that much time in twin peaks You spend way more time in fucking Las Vegas in nega versus fucking alternate dimension Fucking yeah Hi jinx um That thing's great. That's lynched to the max To the absolute fucking maximum is it is it like Lynch just using twin peaks in name as a vehicle for all the things hasn't done

This is this is my personal opinion. I have no reason to believe this other than the way I look at the show This feels like the kind of show That you go back to twin peaks for maybe 10 minutes of every hour, right? And you deal with the sheriff's officer, you know a character here or there, right and I get the feeling that Uh, this is going to be the kind of story that most of the story actually takes place outside of twin peaks but Halfway through to 75 of the way through

It's going to end up in a situation where all threads lead back to twin peaks. Let's do it guys And let's solve the problem all roads meet there and then the Set the the final arc or what have you takes place entirely with the town. That's perfectly reasonable. Hmm. That sounds good Yeah, that sounds a bit like what they did with fargo and fargo was fucking incredible. So um Kyle McLaughlin. I don't know if I'm saying his name, right? He's doing a fantastic Fantastic varied role. Yeah in many different forms of acting He is doing a very good job Uh, and it that move that new twin peaks means like boy, did you watch fire walk with me?

Uh, I tried boy. I gotta go back and watch fire walk with me I don't know because that ring is more important than I thought it would have been. Oh, fuck now. I gotta Liam still has my fucking blu-ray side of 20. It's hey, man. That thing is good, but it's it's Yeah, twin peaks was contemporary to its time and it was airing alongside stuff like Dallas and all those kind of melodramas This new twin peaks is contemporary for its time. It is not a throwback to the 90s. It is A modern weird lynchian nightmare And that first one Matt and I were talking about the other day off camera like that first one's a fucking horror movie Yeah, it's genuinely terrifying and I didn't talk about it last week

But like yeah, there's like a whole scene that's just Whoa, that was super scary. Actually Even though I've never said about twin peaks cheap But cheap in a really cool way. Yeah, anyway, uh, it's it's great. You should definitely watch it I would I would term this season to be Completely nonsensical without knowledge of the original series. Yeah, if you try to jump in on this I would I would say this is the most Required watching kind of show or game. I have I have ever seen in my life. It is

total nonsense without Like for my knowledge. Yeah, not only are we not going to explain it to you But like there's like anti information well, there's There is so much in the red room, which is the end of you must have seen the red room in the whole thing It's like the red drapes and all that shit. You know where all the magic happens Permanent you saw it. You've seen simpson parodies that have the red room perhaps whatever But there's so much in that fucking alternate dimension. Oh the pod screen. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, okay

And like the characters that are all there Are not introduced period. Mm-hmm. Yeah, they're just there And they're like, oh, you know them, right? And if I was a new viewer, I'd like no Who is why is that? Yeah Why is that cg monster someone that these characters know? Oh, man, it's it's a trip. Also, it's fun seeing who ages well and who aged like a second shade Most like I think all the women aged great most of the men have not well hawk looks fine hawk looks great Of course, he does gray hair. I think uh, I think uh, andy is wearing some kind of fat suit

That doesn't look real at all and it's a total bummer that sheriff Truman didn't come back Yeah, it's it's the So let's not talk about what they did do with that character But what they did do with that character is amazing Like I think I can't think of anything in fiction that has done anything like that I'm trying to think if episode three or four is the one where you get to see one of the older kids Yeah, no, you wouldn't you would know I want to talk to you about that because everyone's actually older time has passed in the world

Straight up 25 years later. Well, it's because the very first the very first scene Is is the from the original show and it's Laura Palmer talking to cooper in the red room is like i'll see you in 25 years They literally put that line in because they thought maybe we'll make more in 25 years just in case That's funny. Yeah. No, it's so good I really love the line of the old show where coop is talking to hawk. Yes hawk You're an incredible man if i'm ever lost. I hope they send you to look for me Yeah, it's amazing That's a I I that that couldn't be talked about less without going in the fucking and even then we don't really know what's going on

Uh There's some people that have done some deep digging I'm sure there is I just mean us and there's this weird part with cream corn That people figured out but well my my brain just did something based on what the sentence you just said But I I haven't seen it so I can't really summarize these headphones. Yes. Yeah, like You said Laura Palmer talked and said something. Oh, thank you. So I'm like, oh okay The the red room is a weird alternate dimension in which there's characters don't have to be alive or crazy things happen

So like probably the most impressive thing about this is that aside from aside from One or two characters that just left like those characters are not on issues anymore And two actors that decided not to come back, which is uh the sheriff and don hayward's actor Everyone is back now. Everyone being back doesn't mean that their character is alive or even that character anymore I see. Okay. Never mind them, but they are All there there's one character in the background of a shot that I go that dude's dead And then you go in the credits and it's like, oh, it's the other brother you didn't know about

Okay Like it's it's it's a fucking trip Don't watch it on the influence of substances. You will have a bad trip It's it will fuck you up. Especially that third one. Yeah, that third one is the weirdest thing I've ever fucking seen It is there a 20 minute wordless fucking wordless. I forgot nightmare sequence through Fucking infinity. It's not that weird that it's wordless because In many scenes in the previous episodes, there's not words for a good amount of time actually There's lots of long silences. So when that that 20 minute wordless scene happens. I was like, well, you haven't seen Twin Peaks, right?

No, have you seen some of Lynch's stuff? Yes Because Lynch has a very specific Zoom in style for his characters that he is actually Overdoing for funsies here because they which is I threaten them It's it's the shot reverse shot in which the shot reverse shot is like 10 different reversals For maybe five full minutes and no one says anything. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. That's David Lynch That's awesome. It's usually characters that are trying to process whatever they're doing and or saying one character says something weird

And then the it's you pan to the other character and they go Uh, and then you pan to the original and they're totally normal and they pan back to the second one And now some people that might not be familiar with Twin Peaks or Lynchian movies to begin with uh, that might sound weird and boring But it's not it's actually kind of captivating. It's super exciting Just the way it's just done. I don't know how this went It's like, you know, the the giant's there and he says one thing and then Koop just stare set him for five minutes And I'm like just say something more. I just want you to say something else. Everything you say is so great Yeah, yeah. No, that's good. That's good

man You live long enough and like everything comes back gets rebooted or gets a sequel Hopefully We live forever Well, Twin Peaks is slightly different because it's not it didn't reboot or get a sequel. It's never got finished Like how much but I feel like I feel like the um I don't know how far we're going back to like wrap it all up in but like in the last 10 years We've had we've revisited so many things from the previous like 40 eternal

Right, have we gone through any so like like like the previous 40 years of all almost had like like summaries and and and uh Reboots and sequels and such in the last 10 and I feel like The next 10 Will like speed it up even quicker. Yeah, and you'll get like the backstreet boys revival You'll get the revivals faster and faster Until it's just like five years another one like get their skeletons out. Yeah, okay You know I buy buy buy and if you can and if you can reboot spider-man three times You can in in like you will in one person's like teenage to adulthood

Lifetime speaking of revivals or speaking of revivals that fucking fizzled. Uh, I saw alien covenant Well, how about you hold that? I will because We because we have we have there's men that we have to read ads for they're sponsors. They're sponsors And let's take a word from them. Let's take a word from them. Okay This week the spot cast is sponsored by who? It's sponsored by dsc the dollar shave club Now now now, I don't know if you guys are a member of any clubs.

Hey blame. Mitch blame. Mitch headberg But he's dead. Yeah, and he's hilarious, but um, I mean I can't blame him adequately Well, I'm not gonna go to his skeleton. Okay. Well, then who can we blame for that mess happening on your face? That rag dropping off your jaw. Oh man, he took a person

It's just I we right now It's more normal to have a mistake happen in the recording session than it is to not

So eventually we'll get back to normal. I'll blow up the podcast. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no, that's fine I didn't blame the podcast or any of this equipment. No I just I'm hoping that one week we might be able to get back to doing a session without having well then We're gonna have to go on. I know It sucks, but it's fine. You know what else sucks alien covenant Oh boy Um, I'm gonna wait for one of you to actually actually you're gonna wait forever for me because I'm not gonna say

I I I'll I'll go see it. But again, like I said, I had I said I would go see it this week as long as I didn't have more important things to do I literally started this week by saying I did nothing I forgot I just forgot until just this moment. I had garbage to carry you you had you had farts to fart Sandwich, yeah, I can't I can't I can't go see alien covenant. I'm a little busy Staring at toast So, yeah, I'm not gonna go into spoilers now, but like generally it's very very very displeased watching this motion picture You're sitting there watching going. Hey, I'm displeased. We'll he will know this maybe a bit better. We'll he what do I hate when I'm like

Looking at media or something. What is my absolute fear about what this media is and what its general quality will be You know, I know this one when it's just a five Yeah, I hate a five when you land in the middle and you're not terrible Enough to laugh at or great enough. I think it'll go for you guys Would you rather see a five or would you rather see samurai calm? Yeah, exactly? I was thinking deadly prey. Well, what it comes I guess what it comes down to is like the extremes validate your time being used. Yeah Show me something stupid

Don't show me nothing the problem is that from what I can tell from that movie is it doesn't show you stupid things It tells you stupid. It tells you some stupid. It tells you some really really stupid You know what we all we all hate Prometheus That's true But the problem with Prometheus is that there's some interesting dumb things that meant to make no sense But the problem with the alien covenant more so is that it doesn't have any cool shit from Prometheus It doesn't really have any cool shit from alien or aliens It's it's it doesn't serve any purpose really for even existing. There's just

Nothing interesting going on at all. Does it fit into uh, what I called the the safe sequel archetype like Jurassic World It I and a couple of the other things we've had recently I would say that that that is how you can structurally describe it Unfortunately on like Jurassic World or something and there's like absolutely for me at least absolutely no

Excitement no tension. No, I actually care about what's going on. I heard John C Riley's good Ouch, I think probably the most Just Coming off of um, oh no Danny McBride. Oh, excuse me because I thought you were doing a king kong dig No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm Danny McBride. I'm Danny McBride. He's barely in it. I think probably very John C Riley was in king kong Danny McBride Alien right John C Riley is amazing in king kong king kong right. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Yes, but just It just absolutely just bored just looking at the screen just not really caring about whatever's whatever's going on because

I don't know and I don't know what it is. I don't know this direction I don't know it was a script and I don't know the acting all I can say is that for sure I like the crew of the covenant better than the crew of the Prometheus Yeah, that's not hard to do. I mean Idris Elba was in there, but Idris Elba was in there very little and just Michael it's it's the Michael fastbender show It's it's more about him and the aliens it's a more about David and Aliens are barely a factor. They come in in the last little bit

Anyway, um, and that's what we were talking about a few weeks ago And I said the marketing made it seem like this really tense awesome horror Alien movie if you want to see that type of thing and it wasn't really it wasn't There was one scene where they show a new creature And the creature is birthed in a new way and I was like it not not a startling new way But I was like that's pretty good if you saw the half in the bag. I think uh, uh, jay describes it Yeah And just I'm watching it and I'm just like, okay, that was it

I saw with four people and they all went that was awful and another guy was like, yeah, I was all right And I was like, yeah, I was all right. I give it a six or five one guy said that was one of the worst movies I've ever seen Which is a little hard. I'm I'm just like everything like about that It just almost doubles down in my head what we said if it helps I'll go see it with you again Because I want to talk with you immediately after because it has the janitor the terminator I said genesis before but I fucked up. I meant to say terminator salvation Of if after you've seen it you start thinking of all the small things not big plot things The overall quality may be a bunch of non-sense

Fucking horseshit that you're like, why did that happen? Why did that guy do this? Why it is because no one I have a question for you because you watched the movie. I would like to know an nitty gritty detail So one of the stupidest fucking things in prometheus by far Like the absolute one that makes me like it's gonna stick with me forever Is the part and well, you're gonna remember this because you hated it too Where they fucking go into the ship thing right and they're like, oh my god This air has oxygen in it. That's fucking crazy. Everyone take their fucking helmets off right now Now I've watched some trailers of the movie

And I've seen them walk around outside of the ship with no helmets on at all or any attempt to What's up with that? Okay. So, you know what you just just described in prometheus? How they go down on they go down on the planet with helmets on And then, you know, like as you described a character goes, hey, I just tested the air a little bit I think it's fine in here in that structure. Yeah, so then she as this bold space adventurer Takes off her helmet in covenant. I fucking forgot Oh Like

I fog of word that To not be annoyed by it anymore And you just reminded me that it happens Hold on. Fuck. It was stupid. I contact with me In covenant, they doubled down on not caring How they just don't even show up with helmets on They just walk off the ship Now there's a reason for this in the movie

The reason why is because they, you know, like a lot like mass effect and andromeda And in an opposite way, they run tests from their ship over the earth's surface and say though the air is breathable It's totally fine. There's there's a clip in the trailer of the black goo going inside someone's fucking head from a mushroom So within five seconds like things infect people because the air is breathable You're totally right. They nailed that shit. But there's a problem is if there's crazy bullshit all over Your job your job is to fucking protect people From any other type of bullshit particles that might exist in the breathable air When we're talking about an alien planet, there's the two parts one is oxygen very important

Oh my god, right? But the second part is you don't know what else is you don't know what animals are there You don't know what like just because something's not in the air at that second you scan it Doesn't mean shit can't get into the air later when you're walking around You could be walking around on titan and for all we terraformed it and the air is breathable But then a fucking enormous I don't I don't get you. I don't get out of the ground like kills you Ridley scott is not dumb He's not an idiot. He's a smart director. How do you fuck that up? But I don't think he cares that much about writing and like I don't think he thinks about well, it's not important

Did he gloss over that page? I don't know. Well, what's important is space jesus. I don't also That there's not going to be any directors cut of this film And there's a lot of directors cuts of his films because they've cut out shit loads of from hit like think about it Blade Runner kingdom of heaven from ethias Uh, there's another one. Um, whatever Uh gladiator gladiator had a decent one too And in this one, he said now we have no there's no real major story stuff all the cuts we made were for

Um editing and flow purposes. There's no information. There's nothing going on that I want to put in I'm like that that's a testament to to the thing. So by the way, everything we're complaining about is surface level just science stuff Like the the spoiler things are character motivations and their past. That's the real thing of the movie and that's what I'm not My my my main spoilery problem is its connection to the future is so like I I don't I think it's very very Tenuous the way you were worried about I haven't seen it like I don't know what you've read or whatever I don't think it was anything that made me go the future movies are ruined You could say that they are but you could easily say that they're not I I'm saying that they are well, then that's your prerogative

I'll like I want to hate this movie by all I know Not and it's flaws and not like things that tries to yeah, but I don't want this movie to exist I don't want Prometheus to exist. I didn't want alien 3 or So so so like I I feel like and I said it last time like If a shitty new entry is happening. I don't need it The only thing that was interesting to me about Prometheus was David So And I guess the engineers yes, but but I mean that's a good show

But it's like him in relation to David and the engineers Yeah, but it's like him in relation to them, you know what I mean But like so I kind of feel like I'm like that's the part where you know if they're like, yeah This movie is all about him and stuff. I'm like, okay really probably had the same idea You know where he's like he looked at and he was like, yeah, that was probably the best part The most interesting aspect of it You know, but the idea of I guess turning like the alien franchise into like a thing just about him and whatnot is like If it's if it's destroying the rest of it, then fuck, you know, I wouldn't even say destroying it

I don't like the way that it interacts. Okay. Well. Well. Yeah, you said it. You said it's it's it's it's it's too safe to be interesting So I'm still I'm still holding out and I'm gonna see and and the other main thing I won't say what it is It's all papad I won't say what it is here, but like there's a Like stinger thing that gets revealed at the end. That's the most obvious. Well, that's the thing I have the problem with There's 20 minutes to the end of the movie They go they present you a scenario and then they just like it's up to you to To think about what's going to go on with this scenario and it was the most obvious thing ever And I was like the movie better not be hinging on this reveal to be the final shot ever since

Ever since resurrection ever since resurrection. That's been the case is the last minute mutation You know what I mean to close out the credits. This is worse. The resurrection is this is considerably dumb. Oh Anyway, and well, not even need to see this and only not even like you say ever since resurrection like every single alien movie does that Yeah alien it gets on the ship. Yeah, but no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no But but that's but that's not that's that that's different. I'm talking about like the it's the new creature that just pops out at the last Second Like one and two. No, this isn't this is something much different. It's a different thing. Yeah, okay. All right fine But it is a revelation

But like, you know, give give alien through some guff the the last few seconds of alien three Oh, hey, wait a second Yeah, if if alien I thought aliens had been visiting earth since the Mayan era That's what AVP said. Yeah, but humans didn't know Oh, fuck. Wait. No, you mean like their creation. Yeah, whatever. I I They existed AVP's a separate. Oh, I guess it is Even though wayland utan is in it um

the last Five very bad alien movies of alien three The last five the last 10 minutes of alien three or like save the rest of the movie. I think I completely disagree I think that movie's kind of a mess Yeah, but the last 10 minutes is I think the best part of that movie is them talking about the alien in the fucking medical bay They're like, this is bullshit. It just fucking kills the guy right there. It's like That's my uh, anyway. Yeah, that's alien. That's that's I'm done. Uh, just really quickly because yeah, um I was watching mystery science theater a few thousand like the new stuff a few weeks ago

I talked about it I saw a new episode that I have to recommend to every single person It's it's one of those episodes where people are complaining that like jokes are coming too fast And and you can you they they need a little room to breathe. They did an episode for a 1960s korean kaiju movie I've never heard of called young gary That's young that's young gary. Okay, not young gary, but everyone says young gary. Oh And one of the jokes is like where's old gary? Oh, damn so

Young gary is one of my as you could probably surmise my favorite classic mystery science Yeah, my favorite classic mystery science zero three a thousand episodes are when they did godzilla movies Is that a young gary action figure behind you? It is not That's kafulu. Oh, okay But those are some of my favorite episodes and this episode Completely like made me think of those and that it did take its time with jokes because the dialogue is is fast dubbed Uh, so oh man that thing looks stupid. Yeah People talk very fast and a lot

So they they have to let the characters talk a bit and there's not that many like, you know Long spaces of time where they can just make uh thousands of jokes per second Even as funny as they are but the young gary episode fucking Like destroyed me. I was laughing so I was watching it late at night lianna sleeping next to me and i'm going like I have pillows pushed in my face because i'm going like Try not to wake her up and then she's like are you farting all night? What's that noise? And i'm like, no, i'm just going No, that's the new one. That's the new one. Don't look at that

You want to look at you want to look at the old bad one? I'm looking up. I'm looking up young gary. Uh, you want to find pictures That's it. That's it. Okay. Yeah, look at that stupid thing. It's just a bad godzilla knockoff or whatever Uh, so that episode was was amazing. Um, I I recommend it If you want to check out that show on on netflix, um, you know, you can just go to whatever episode doesn't matter I found the art you drew back when you were yeah, I did not know about And the last thing is that I bought a car How about that? Yeah, it didn't it didn't work out the first time we went to go How was it driving around? Uh, we're we're we bought it, but we're picking it up tomorrow. How's the handling?

It's it's a honda crv. It's basically like a hatchback like kind of mini Uh, you know utility vehicle, whatever. How do you like driving it? I'm not gonna be driving it Now that I own a car you probably rather than borrow one occasionally I might like start the impotence to gain a license is slightly higher You didn't get you didn't get a minivan so that you can take all the cats to soccer practice Well, this thing is got lots of room. Yes. It is a crv. That is crv. So, um, so yeah, uh It's a it's a used one and whatever just kill something. Was that the moth? Yeah, you got it. Wow. Of course I did good job

It's been weeks, but we got them. Oh, you're gonna killing insects. Yeah. Yeah I don't like them. Yeah, they need to go you shriek and leave the room. No I used to do that, but now I can shriek once it's dead final fair enough. Can you can you like catch flies? No That's tough. I've I've done it. I've gotten it. You did it once. I see, you know, I've done it You can get it in and then you just know the the reason why I'm decent at it Is I can tell when I have the five seconds you need to sneak up on them, you know, you need the time You need the prep time. I uh, I usually let them out, you know, fuck them Yeah, I used will the I used to live in for done. Oh god a little spider. Oh mothman said

Uh, anyway, I'm gonna be airbrushing predators and yeah punish our logos onto this thing today's today's episode of the friendcast featuring moth for like a second Woff, boss. All right, that's me. So all right, um go see alien covenant. Yeah. No No Matt I will key your car Because I can do that now. You know what you'd be like you see the movie and you key my car. You're like fuck you and I'm like Fair enough. Oh, no, he looks out the window and just goes. Yeah, he keys alien covenant for life Yeah, that's fine, too

We got some news walls. Yeah, we might have some news might have some news I'm gonna save the the the puncturing of your tires for when it really counts. Please do. Yeah They're tough. They're tough wheels though Um, they're not firestone wheels. Are they? I don't know. Those are the ones that'll kill you Duh, those explode. No, they just killed a bunch of people because they suck Um, that's not very dramatic and more sad. Well Speaking of dramatic damn Final fantasy seven anybody. Oh you want to talk about that final fantasy seven anybody? Uh, yeah, maybe in like four years

Yeah, I don't think all right. So think about it. Just uh, I play a game by this company a lot and I follow its development very strongly, right? And in the background of the 14 development, there's always this weird edge of like We're fine over here with all of our stuff Right. Yeah. Yeah, um Everything about the way square manage square annex manages its larger projects for the past what 10 years It seems like at least Yeah

2007 to 2017 like I'd say the The fort the 15 you can stretch it the the 13 versus period. Yeah Yeah, fabula nova cristales. Yeah, everything since fabula nova cristales. Yeah, yeah, yeah, like So the the proper article is that the remake undergoes a extremely large development change in which they're pulling it off cyber connect and pulling it internally and shifting around some management roles And they're putting the uh main programmer behind lightning returns haoki hamguchi In the lead role. I'm not familiar with him, but

He also makes a new BS lightning returns ran like shit. So I don't know. Um, now I mean, it's not much anyone would be personally responsible for that Like I don't like I feel as if it's weird because you know, I think cyber connect is Like Proven masters of style. Yes, if not gameplay because I still if not gameplay if not Usually not gameplay The though and you know with their their jojo stuff and whatnot like recently we can see that like yeah, man those dudes are like

With they like if someone handles the design for the gameplay that's not them They can do good work. So I've never So this though This is a weird thing because I mean you can when I look at that screenshot, especially now having played so much of um Fucking 15 you can see how this is. Oh, yeah No, really really just 15 with other models in it. You know story and and whatnot. Yeah, and and uh, you know what? That's kind of fine. Yeah, because that engine was fine and I enjoyed it

um but but I guess like I I kind of feel like most of this is gonna be like Since we aren't the engines there and like everything's just kind of like playing out and it's probably going to be very similar to how 15 moves and plays and handles I I don't see like how this is going to really drastically affect things Well, here's here's the way that I see it, right?

So the to take away that I get from this the number one Is okay guys, we announced it two years ago But we're gonna start working on it for real now Which is what we saw for verses 13 for like what fucking seven years That could be the right and the other thing is that how many fucking projects is namura gonna direct? That have these kinds of problems that get excuses because oh luminous engine is fucked up and then But at the same time nothing here nothing here expressly says this is a restart Uh, this is a this they said it's a handing over of you know

Responsibility and they're taking it from external into an internal so that they can handle the quality You're right, but I don't trust square annex to tell me when something's actually in development But switching like the handling of like, you know switching out maybe cyber connect When the game is still three years out to me doesn't strike me as uh, Your your work is done. It strikes me as you were you're fired Well possibly but but I guess all I'm saying is like all we can do is speculate on that angle And and and like and if that's the part that like is what would get you upset It's like that's the part that we don't know enough

Well, here's here's something you do know a little bit more about it's like let's look at kingdom hearts 3 Whether or not you care about it or not. How long ago was that announced two years ago longer for sure I'm thinking of the trailer. It was it was announced way before the ff7 remake And how long has that been in real development under numera? I don't I don't know and they say oh kingdom hearts 3 and ff7 remake. They're they're good to go in maybe 2020. It's like Man, did uh, what what just came out that's too long ago. What do you mean? What what kingdom hearts related thing just came out The 2.5 the the fucking hd remixes was hd remasters. Were the people working on those the people working on three? No idea okay

I know it was their port team that does the you know did the ff10 remaster kind of stuff to my knowledge Okay, I was they have a whole group. I thought it was I thought it was new content That does like I thought there was a new content being put in the remasters of like, you know What was it? It was 10 first and now it's then it was the kingdom hearts games and now it's 12 Yeah, all the 12 is the one right 2.8. Um Yeah, all I see is we don't know what we're doing numera can't make a game go ever Until we take him off in five years And put somebody else on and this this this news came right out after after that fucking ff15 survey came in

You see that thing? Well, you load up ff15 and it says hey What stuff would you like us to put into the game next? And it's got like eight different story things that should all have been in the game in the first place like hey What's up with lunafrea or the backstory of ardent or stuff like that question here hypothetical How would you feel about a square enix that uh Kind of disappeared into the shadows like blizzard did That only shows up every couple years and goes here's a game. They should do that

It's it's the the whole I get the overwhelming impression That the only reason they announced these things so early is so they have something to actually tell people they're working on Because other otherwise Yeah, well you do it actually go like four or five years with Will announce things when we're ready, especially when you have investors that are sitting around going like okay So you're telling me to sit tight for How many months but like four years, you know Ios like just put out idos games in the meantime while you they let go of your shirt put up put over

Well, yeah, yeah, you know what I mean like dragon quest ios square owns idos and idos it was said Yeah And each of these studios is being treated as an individual studio with different releases But but I just mean squares main team as a whole I I definitely feel like it would benefit from just like yeah, just Just disappear and then come in drop a thing and then disappear again Because I feel like um The more news about these things like the more upset people get well

Here's the thing right and announcing something early. It turns a huge hype bomb into into sour grapes So think about this right and it sucks because You then have to like hit it somewhere in the middle because then you go from sour grapes to here's a hype trailer And now it's out and then everyone kind of goes back to zero when they could have rid it out from You know how I feel about the ff7 remake now I feel about it the same way that I feel about versus 13 I feel the same way about it that I feel about beyond good and evil too In which I don't trust that it's even being fucking made anymore

Right or if it is they're gonna get two years in and go Oh, we have to throw it all out because we were too slow or whatever in your perception Uh Assuming that a release date stays the same and you're too mad. Did they ever what even imply or they stay? No, they just said 2018 is the soonest you'll ever Consider that's all they said and this is going to still be episodic Assuming that yes, it will exactly assuming that things are always going to be coming out on the exact same thing Okay, so the it's say the release date 2019 whether they tell us or not it doesn't matter

How soon do you personally want to know about it eight to ten months beforehand like every other fucking game? Yeah, like a year max. Mm-hmm. Okay out before the release day because and and it's it's doubly vital for Square Enix Because I no longer even trust that those games are going to come out at all for I'm of the opinion and this is kind of a weird way to look at it, but versus 13 never came out because And if you and if you play all the way through 15, you can see where there are pieces of In the same sense that rising never came out exactly. Yeah, that that's exactly how I mean it. Yeah and

Like ff7 remake is episodic like All I wanted was new models and textures on the old shit Has that's all I ever fucking wanted has there ever been a game that was not announced too early But was leaked early and then it then you had to kind of like wait for a long ass time before Confirmation and then it didn't come out or come out and then it well it led to a similar frustration. Yeah tighten Yeah, yeah And then tighten didn't happen. Yeah, that's true That's a big one and you got overwatch in it, but like overwatch is not tighten overwatch is not tighten

But it's pretty fucking good. Yeah, but how how long That was how long was tighten a word decade for two years at least to me to me It was it got leaked out during like the fucking burning crusade expansion. It was it was crazy Like I don't want that that sucks that makes my excitement invert itself now Where I look at every piece of news of uh every piece of news. That's not like here's It's been two years. We should be watching the launch trailer for that fucking thing right now if it's episodic That's a three max, but we should be watching gameplay demos of like hey Hey, I'm a producer from such and such. Here's how

Right When they come out like well, here's the other thing too is like Why is even why even announce this story? Really, uh because when they came out and they did announce it and everyone went nuts and then they went Okay, but really though. Don't even think about this. Just stop thinking about it. That's why it's because they don't want the I guess the only reason to announce this to say hey You might be assuming that uh, we're gonna be releasing this soon, but we're super not I don't think it's probably I don't think it's it's

Gonna hurt you if you announce it tell everybody not to think about it, but then Just stay quiet until it's actually ready. Yeah, you know I say like go for it if you must and like maybe let your investors know what's going on if you have to Maybe but don't actually do this thing where you now have the opportunity to get bummed out by Whatever the fuck is coming out about this, you know Anyway, it's bummed anyone trying to break in someone trying to break in here. I don't know. Okay. All right I got a mic stand nearby. We literally have no reason. That's okay. All right. That's fine ever

The only person that would have knocked the only person that would ever Ever visit is the landlord of the building and he always calls us Yeah, so why would anyone be knocking on our fucking door? I'm scared I'm the closest to the door. I'll be the first to die. Oh, yeah, you should be I can flip this over and Have a little shield. It's not gonna stop it if anyone's got a like bullets or anything Okay, then come on at the very least it'll it'll put you in the danger zone I should have brought one of my axes and chances are I'm kind of confused that one of them isn't around Chances are dangerous that if someone breaks in here and they need to take someone out and they take you out

They'll feel satisfied and then they'll be like, yeah, I'm gonna die like really hard and awesome Like good for murder like oh that guy really screamed and shit his pants really good I enjoyed this That'll do me. That'll do me. That was satisfying. Yeah I got it all out of my system. How would you rate being satisfied with this murder? Would you say you were very satisfied? Just hit the little button on your way out the door. Yeah, you're very satisfied with this pants. Shit Oh, man, so speaking of being satisfied with pants. Shit's How about oh man the mon hunt? Yeah

Yeah, I'm so glad you actually put this in here. So um now now would you say Before we even talk about this monster hunter xx nintendo switch version So the the the name i'm seeing thrown around is double monster hunter xx s Okay Oh, right. Just throw more on it. Would you agree with the statement that there were too many monster hunter games on 3ds? Yes Okay, this is one of limon eyes biggest like gripes. It's just like three the four

uh four g it was uh Well, are you going japan or xx out here? Well, I guess I mean for talking so let's go for all of them. Yeah, let's let's say it's three three g four four g x Double x that's six. Yeah, that's ridiculous over the course of Six years. I want to say maybe how long the pretty much is it annualized? Uh, no, but okay, so the three three g

No three did not come out on the 3ds only 3g because three was on the the wheat. Okay, so 3g came out Right as like nearly like I want to say four or five months after the 3ds came out Okay, so monster hunter has been on the 3ds for pretty much the whole lifespan of it and it's been frustrating from day one Because I'm pretty sure people listen all episodes of podcasts and you hear me and Liam talk about this the game straight up looks better on the psp Like it was a downgrade back in 2007 Right. Oh, no, what we're not we're 2017. What 2010 or 2011, right? It was a downgrade right away And we it took all these years to get the nub Right and now it's for finally at the point where

Like I learned this game on the we you That's my first game in this series on the we where I had two analog sticks. Okay, and it took me this fucking long To get a second analog stick back um So it's not annualized, but there's never been more than two years with that one No, because they release the g versions which are the expansion. Yeah, okay variants So, uh, yeah more information coming on may 27th says the article, but monster hunter, uh double cross Is uh, this is the one that you saw that strider article. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and I would assume that

This is gonna get dropped with all the dlc included Over time they what the way they do it is that um, the the dlc gets released every week for free Like every week there's some new thing So like remember when they did the you may have remembered like the daunte like palico costume ads for for you or whatever Or it's like you can dress your guy your cat up like they did like every cat prom brand Like some of those took a year to come out Hmm And here's the fun part, but they're already available on on 3ds. Yeah, well

Well xx is not out on 3ds yet. Oh shit. Okay. I don't wait is it Because I thought the way they thought that this was already out and that those packs would then be included Well, the the goofy thing is that they already exist when they when they when they localized it the same schedule applied So you could tell like okay. Well in the eighth week japan got this one So i'm not sure how that's gonna work that being said those dlc things are mostly trivial Occasionally they'll add like a challenge monster or a new type of monster that it was unaware xx is It's like the marvel of this series like it's all sorts of mash-up shit

Uh, the goofiest thing and the thing that so I screamed when I saw this I literally screamed Similar to liam's reaction with neuro automata. Uh-huh. Um, and just like Ah um and There's one thing about it that actually Genuinely concerns me and it's a great feature and everyone should be happy But it like it makes me cynical inside and it's the fact that the 3ds players can play with the switch players

Uh with no camera nub or will will will okay. Is there any difference between what you can do? No It's no difference. There's no feature difference. It is a straight port And you look at that switch trailer and it's like you can see the ps2 models You can see which which monsters came from the psp at a glance Right, you can go. Oh, that's the psp model still are there any touchscreen controls or anything like that? There are but because the the extra controls on the switch like the the triggers Yeah, you there is there they're going to have like that you can see in a screenshot Basically, there's super moves that you would hit the the touchscreen for you can see in the trailer that there's uh

Like a hold r and then just hit a face button to toggle it kind of thing you actually yeah You actually can't do everything. Oh, no, there's no functional difference whatsoever and switch has such screen anyway Yeah, no, that's um, I was thinking yeah, but it makes me like deep deep deep freaked out in my heart Because one of the things for monster hunter that people have been frustrated with for Christ it's two monster hunter two So they've never improved the model significantly ever they've never improved the graphics ever It always has looked like shit. We're always working on ps2 models. Yeah, if you look at that trailer, will you you're going to see 1080p ps2 models

right and The animations are identical and for some reason for sometimes has gameplay sometimes that's you know old And seeing that this has they're they're making a big deal to cross play with the 3ds I'm genuinely worried That the monster hunter 5 or monster hunter whatever right is going to be 3ds switch games Even for the next couple years because the 3ds install base is so large

Right. Hmm. I mean like I you can you can you fault capcom for wanting to make that money? They have not spent any money on that shit in like 12 years I can't then the problem is that people need to stop buying them. No, it's so good because There's no reason because because they could no one they could throw they could throw a ton of money and make it a switch exclusive or Like like proper next-gen game But like yeah, there's a lot of people in Japan still spending money on these things on 3ds

Tired of how shitty like Plesioth looks and fucking Gravios and guys like that. Are they are they are are the models of the monsters not getting like touched up or they are Occasionally some of them get touched up Some of them pretty much like in the 3ds game. They brought back and for you They brought back a bunch of monsters that hadn't been around since like the second one and you can tell Hmm How much of a of a of a crazy job would it be like to actually do all of that over a lot? They've built up a lot. Would it be like would it be like the demons in in smt? Yes. Okay a catalog of

If you're taught like there's some guys they brought back like there's a giant one That's called lao shang long that has actually been completely remodeled because it would it would look ancient at this point Yeah, but we're talking like Let's say like 80 to 100 large scale like enemy types that have like, you know hundreds of animations Right like the these are these are boss fights in any other game And to completely redo them you're looking at a situation where that people would also worry about say hey, here's monster enter 5 There are 32

Monsters in this one right the fighting game problem. Uh, yeah, it is exactly the fighting game problem Yeah, and xx where it's just grabbing stuff from all over that list is as high as it's ever gonna get I think it's approaching 100 but Like i'm just Even now when I finally got the thing I wanted I can't escape the stink of the 3ds It's the one thing that just taints it now. What is cool? Well, it's it's it's a it's a it's a problem of the success of the series like now

I might be overly cynical because there is actually a really good. No There is a really good reason for that cross play to exist because xx is the expansion kind of thing for generations or cross You can transfer your save file That's from the old game to the new one and you'll keep all your stuff Yeah, and watch there be like an equal if not greater install base Of 3ds players when this comes out when you go online Well switches. I hopefully I hope oh man watch that happen

Like when you jump online, tell me what you what you see because i'm sure it'll tell you what console they're on I don't think it even would because there's no functional difference But but I mean but like PS like when you play like street fighter like they tell you what yeah, but there's no point There's no fucking voice chat. I wonder okay If they do if they do it'd be interesting to see like it would like are there actually more people Still just playing the 3ds. Oh surely then there are like in japan. Yeah But out here who knows I'm excited to

Get that finally cool finally it also looks like you can play the port the docked Switch version with your 3ds. I don't know what those arrows mean, but there's console arrows of a 3ds Pointing to a switch dock and it's unclear exactly what they're trying to say So what's a bummer for the cross play stuff is that I saw people Going through articles and that the cross play between the two platforms is online only you can't have your 3ds connect to this Yeah, you say you had a 3ds and I had the switch. We can't just play together locally. We'd have to I wouldn't expect that I would that's a bummer considering the the kind of portability this has

Uh, I'm very excited. They showed a new form like Here's another series that everything I say you guys don't know, but it's like they showed a new form of diabolos Yeah, I should check out monster hunter. The uh, the logo reminds me of fucking patchy slot Oh Over the top it's starting to become uses the same like because it's x but like the second x is like exploding like, uh It's it's um, if you've ever seen the the devil may cry patchy slot logo. It's doing shit like that Uh, anyway, it's actually overly hype Like there's too many graphics. There's too many explosions. There's too much lens flares. That's how you know

It's a patchy slot. It's trying to make it exciting the way japan likes it. Yeah, to be honest, but uh Anyway, uh, so yeah, that's monhorn. Yay um I hope that game runs. Okay. The fucking wii version of uh, three you like ran pretty poorly was not good And like there's there was no reason for that game to run poorly Yeah, so may 27th in japan. Cool. So, um, the one extra thing about that is that usually the uh, American or english version of those is really delayed like extremely extremely delayed compared to

Uh, the japanese version because they have tons of text They have like, you know, uh, like, you know persona levels of text that much there's so much There are so much dialogue There are so many things to write. It's it's crazy but Uh, I do in fact believe that the 3ds version is out like now or soonish, right and maybe even in a few days that The switch version may be like close behind the japanese version because they would already have started to work on localization

So in in japan it's august. Hopefully we can get it before the end of the year That would that would be nice cool Other news Is it good news? Yeah, this is radical news. I fucking i'm a fan of this shit uh Check out The new genji skin named sentai

This is the overwatch anniversary edition skin for genji and he basically gets turned into a sentai slash camera writers Literally names. He's still he's just a toku. You mean a power ranger. He's just he's a toku. You mean sabon's power rangers Oh god, the number one comments is like, hey, they gave him a power ranger skin And then they're sentai nerds screaming at those people. I wonder if fucking sabon's greasy fingers Good try to get a piece of the pie. The problem is that blizzard is a company a thousand times bigger than sabon Yeah, so he's not gonna he's not gonna gut them like a fish as they say Fucking asshole like but you know, he tried you know, he's looking at it if someone someone

Yeah, he smells some shekels. He wants to come in and see if he can fucking get in on them That asshole, but either way it's very cool that uh, sorry I dressed up like a toothbrush And he's doing like his cool little crazy like a dance That's not quite a sentai pose because he's almost doing more like michael jackson moves Well, well lucio has like straight up michael jackson with his costume. Yes um, yeah this overwatch uh anniversary shit looks pretty dope and uh, I forgot to say I played I played a Good amount of it this week. I got I got a couple skins didn't get that one Thankfully didn't get zarya's awful awful skin. Um, I did get uh faras, which I enjoy. I think there's a conspiracy

I think I love like I said it on I said it in a tweet the other day But I I would rather be famous for writing the tweet that some some websites have picked up saying Fans are not happy for and many anniversary skins. I just Maybe one day my children's children's children will get a decent zarya skin I feel like she might internally be like the dan hibiki, but we just didn't know about it You know what I think then why is she not the dan hibiki in the other game that she's in? Yeah, it I don't all of her skins in that game are awesome. I think I think the overwatch team Literally doesn't understand why people like this character like I think they

They they're like oh, they want they want this right and like there's so much fan out There's so much like, you know stuff from overwatch from fans that like these characters and everyone like I'm easily going to say this I'm confident saying that everyone except Zarya has like one skin that I think like exemplifies A different version of white like like how many symmetric skins are there where she's like, you know A cool goddess or or or or the the new one the anniversary is just it's it's amazing Like soldier 76 has skins and there's like less going on with him So here's the thing Zarya Zarya's uh olympic costume is cool. It's okay I like it. I like her olympic costume a lot. It's terrible

I think it's just it's nice to see like a that version and I can see that being like Exemplifying like her as a lifter, you know like a russian power lifter I get that that's where it stopped but the problem with the the olympic skins that everyone got Basically the very similar skins to to everybody else. I did get one But like why no as cool as ryan art is why is ryan heart got like a thousand awesome costumes And some for no events whatsoever Also, I typed in Zarya anniversary And right here

Right there on the results is matt's tweet Hopefully one day my children will get a decent zarya skin And look right under there. There's another fan artist that made this awesome fucking zarya skin where she's a construction worker I saw one that she had longer hair. It's just a black suit and look cool. Like I don't get it Yeah, uh, I still I the tweet I shot at blizzard was it's not too late to change it And basically give her a rosy the riveter outfit. That's what lana goes on and on about How good which is kind of like what this fan art is similar to how good is diva's 1950s? Like skin where she has fantastic. It's amazing fantastic

You know and like zarya's new skin is like i'm a generic robot thing for a person that hates robots It's uh that fucking cyber demons. No, you know what it reminds me It reminds me more of those those costumes that the um, the avengers wore temporarily with the yellow visors kind of Like her valhalla like Valkyrie whatever thing in hots is like just put that in it. Just put that in a cyber demon ones right there The cyber demon's cool. Like don't get me wrong. But again, I don't think it fits the character in terms of what are Motivated. Yeah, but cool costume sure even but what I mean is even if it's got the wrong focus Yeah, that one looks better. You're right anniversary one. Yeah, you're right. Like it's what is going on man. I don't know just fix it

Just fix it. Oh that's that image. I put my face on we can fix it please anyway So, um, amen Yeah, but hey genji's dope. Yeah. Hey shocker everyone. It sucks that I don't play genji and I don't you're not a pro genji I'm not a pro genji and I his play style is not for me Um, that's a pro genji because I kind of there's something about it where I ah whatever like just the the fact that it's like I don't like the the his ninja star. No, I don't like it. It's just not it doesn't work for me at all

You know, but he looks awesome and he has a defensive move. He does that's that's the best. It's the best. It's super good. Yeah um Anyway, um So god is dead. Well, is he yeah, how can you say god is dead in a world where we have? uh mario plus rabbits kingdom battle that that further proves that how can you how can you how can you say that in a world? That that shot of the rabbit dressed up like peach taking a selfie is vile

It's amazing. It's the best and I people photoshopping it on in front of divas exploding exploding mecca. Yeah is pretty great um Here we are rabbits still successful still still going You might as well be uvi uvi soft branded minions Well, that's that's not might as yeah, that is in fact very much what they are I I and someone made a minion that had uh, or like rabbit ears and uh Well, and what was it like a couple other things just smashed together and it was just like the ultimate mascot market ability market more back

marketability Fucking uh, uh toy. I talked about a bit on this on twitter. It's like am I happy rabbits are in it? No, not really But it's a weird isometric strategy Action game made by ubi soft paris. It is all give that a go It is a mario rpg and at the end of the day it probably might be fun. So Turn-based combat. Oh, no, they've made a 35% exploration Again ubi soft is making this nintendo is not the one the developer weapons based

um With eight characters As some people go like well, they should put rayman in it. I'm like No child Knows who the fuck rayman is. This is clearly Trying to focus on that. Uh, well well to be fair though legends and um The other one. Yeah, they were huge sales disasters I mean, but I mean like it's it's ray rayman

But I just mean rayman has existed in in like Game space in the last couple years. Yes. Yes. Yes, you know, but it's also co-op So co-op rpg, you know, like you know what I'd rather you know I'd rather that like that still keeps the rabbits in there or whatever if you if you must it's like I wouldn't mind it like a silly little Nintendo cross ubi soft thing put etio in there put rayman put anybody that kind of fits like some type of fantasy Ish thing like maybe fucking sandfish or probably not But like at least characters you can say have transported like fucking etio's and soul caliber

What about like cocaine master from wildlands? I think cocaine master would be good. Yeah, how about uh, How about some people from call of Juarez the cartel since that was an ubi soft game very good Very good. Uh, I'm just saying that like if you're gonna mix and match things and it's this weird crossover It's like go like why why dead sec why exclusively on the rabbits The weirdest thing about this announcement is how it came out Via a series of slides that look as if they're made for I have to Internal presentation. You know what this is fucking Nintendo barely never almost leaks anything. This is a huge ubi soft Fuck up. Yeah, I think it leaks all the time. Was this was this a leak? Yeah

Yeah, this is still not formally announced. That's why we're looking at slides a big. Yeah, okay. Never mind and that explains perfectly Yeah, okay, they're trying to get this out the door before if a vendy buys because the terminology on the slides talking about the game are like Very much like trying to pitch it You know, yeah, and you can see this being like prepared for a nintendo pitch This was before this leak. This game was rumored even before like months before Yeah, like no one's going to announce their timeline about surprise an announcement convince media gamers that go big for launch So anyway, yeah Um, hey man, there's gonna be a mario rpg

Like game on switch coming soon. That's that's fine to me. This is not a mario rpg game. This is a fucking rabbits crossover game It's a mario It's an rpg. What are you? This is an rpg. Yeah, I I don't know where you are, but wow You keep saying it, but I don't see anything in it. Okay, there's no screenshots of I understand you checked out super hard So just there's a top-down strategy rpg It is a strategy rpg and it is that's not a mario rpg mario rpg is a turn base

Okay, like their turn base side scroller. All right, it's like but a mario rpg is like a kind of genre. I know I know I know I'm aware. It's it's about hitting the button when mario jumps. I'm aware I'm aware Ubisoft's one of the many many snow-based pun engines that the that exist in the fucking world It's just you know going on the line that says games presented as an rpg that makes his exploration with turn-based combat Uh Wouldn't it be goopy if it ends up that this game didn't get picked up That would be goofy

Because it is weirdly that you're right that it seems like a pitch that are just screenshots Well, if that's what this that's what this leak was. I know yeah Like it's like we pitched it and they turned this town and this game doesn't exist Nintendo pitched it and we turned it. Yeah rabbits are too valuable We can't have the mario franchise sully the rabid universe There was one rabid game I really enjoyed on the Wii which is the one where they're just in a shopping cart And they just have to make a rocket ship filled with garbage. Yeah, and that was just that was literally made by um Uh creator of uh rayman. That's appropriate make a lot of style

And it was just a fun little action game where you just zipped around and did silly things. It was pretty good It's the best rabid game I ever played Friday the 13th Apparently it's too popular. I still can't play I tried this morning. So The that's a stupid problem. Friday the 13th game is having massive server issues and is it just too much? Like too many people they were expecting based on their Kickstarter estimates that they would have 30 000 players They had 75 000 on the first day

That's more because more people bought the game like just normally than they're yeah No, your server infrastructure would die mmo's have this problem. Yeah, uh blizzard has this problem sometimes Depending on the game relays they just I we didn't we thought we thought we could do it, but we can't um So I talked about this a bunch on twitter, but yeah, basically it's just like people can't Boot up the game and that happened to me boot it. Is it online only it's online only Ah, okay, that makes it has a single player component But it's coming later in the summer which I think in hindsight they probably should have delayed the game So that if this did happen you could boot it you can at least play something and get the basics of the game

I can't there's no all right. So last night Um, I got two matches of this across three different skews I got one match on steam one match on ps4 that disconnected I've never been able to boot up the xbox one version and every other subsequent version still also doesn't work um So when you boot it up what happens that you see the splash screen the load screen and then I'll say logging you in Yeah, okay, then I'll say database failure And that's the main thing that everyone says they there's now photo shops of the game in the font

And it says database failure in the game Whatever the fail message is inevitably becomes the mean even japan does that People latch on to that really hard says database failure and like database failure is because we don't have we don't have enough Shit to make this go and we're really sorry we're working on this 24 7 People that are able to get to get into games and there they have They'll play they'll play matches. They'll get lots of matches They'll get xp because they're because they're in they'll they'll level up their jason because you can there's multiple different jasons You you gain more kills more animations database failure will also result in all your progress being wiped

So even if you do get to play This will happen and they're just and you you got to sit and hammer the button Yeah, so last night when I tried to log in the xbox one version and I was playing stream this on sunday And I was like I can't get any consistent game So I'm not and I don't want to would you say that it could you don't want to do a stream? If you sitting there looking at the fucking log like dsp does apparently it just doesn't play a game For two hours. That's a good gimmick Uh, I wasn't able to log in I'll say database failure and this morning they said hey

We've been working like I've been seeing these developers Every single second talking to every single message much better than fucking no man's sky of like a year of silence Yeah But they're like we haven't slept we've okay. We have this working now I was able to go into the xbox one version today before I came over I get into the game and I'm like all the modes are now like A thing I can click on and I searched for a game slow couldn't find just went to quick match And people say if you do this you do that you open up a private thing it can work

But I just went to quick match just to test it couldn't get into I can imagine an image of a guy on twitter Right. He's on his phone. He's doing boop boop boop and he looks over he goes. Hey jimmy How's it going and it's a man with a fire extinguisher literally like closing down literal servers that are on fires We're making progress Uh, so so there there's There's there's one other thing is that like the people that do play it that this is the most fun Ever like if you do good if you do manage to get in if you get in it's so tense if you're playing with a group It's these fun matches that go on for a while

And like people still trying to figure out how what is the average length of a match? It's like 10 minutes or something like it's because there's it's up to eight people versus jason. Thank you okay, um So it's up to to to for for eight people against one Why log horizon cal? Oh, yeah. What's your problem? Continue. Anyway, keep going. Um, but that was seriously There's something I want to talk about where I I went onto the facebook messages because they can't go on twitter and tell you All the fixes that they're making they say here's the facebook thing where it lists every single problem that we're having And what we're doing to fix it

so i'm looking at some of these comments and then What i've noticed is that horror fans horror movie fans that don't play games Don't care about games don't care how hard it is are just like here are my death threats To you because you stole my money. I don't understand why it doesn't work I know that you stole my money And here are the here Here's a very tidy list of the people in your family I would like to be killed because you've stolen my money

And I'd say this is like 20 of all the comments and there's like a thousand comments on this fucking change That's like 200 comments. That's a lot I'd say like 30 of them are people that are being really negative and being like fuck you This should be working by now blah blah blah blah blah And the developers are never they're they're being a little like okay. Look we're trying really hard none of us We're a 12 man team Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah and just I just read I just tapped out a watch every audience has to

Go through that thing because I've never been part of an online only game where it didn't work day one Like I didn't buy diablo 3. I I didn't you know these games But those who are getting in are having the time of their lives And then there's still problems other like uh, it's you know, because the the database is just don't make things laggy and shitty or whatever MMO players tend to act badly. Yeah, so when they're when they're their other life Goes down. Yeah, that's a good way of putting it. They really they really should fix the database database database Wow

Wow. Wow. Wow a couple people have you ever listened to it? And because because I mean if you're telling me that they had Set up a whole life in the database. Yes, and then that life was taken away from them They would be very upset very upset about the database. Wow Uh, here's another fun. Here's another fun fact that I paid a bit extra to get special dlc Which is that hell jason costume where he looks like he's fucking scorpion and shit and like uh more clothes for your Your characters blah blah blah like little minor things and they're like are also these codes don't work for anybody right now We're working on that too

So if you do get in games None of that will work as well. It's it's a it's a huge huge. I I really love hyper light drifter But the way that the codes for the pre-order stuff like in-game stuff came out like I never even wear I never got it to work correctly Really that's crazy and I went back and forth with humble Humble bundle over and over and it was just a mess Jim's certainly put out a video of him not playing this game. That's a good video because he can can't can't get it And he's like this sucks. I was looking forward to this but like fuck this like I can't believe it

So I saw the devs on twitter quote Jim's like twitter feed of it him like here's this video of me unhappily playing this or unhappily not playing it I just saw this so they they just wrote underneath This is absolutely heartbreaking to watch. We've worked so hard, but we're really sorry We're trying our best to get this working But I'm like like you're a dev you put in like two years of working or something You see people not even able to play your thing but when a game is online and

It's not on a console where the servers are handled and taken care of as a part of You know or or it's not it's not peer-to-peer there needs to be a singular database that you connect to This is a very known problem that like you scope out in advance Yeah, because you're paying for your own servers. You're doing it yourself. You're doing the heavy lifting and they're like Is it gonna be enough? Are you sure? Are you super sure you did all the money we add left there like they're saying to server load because we're We also kickstarted money to develop the game also There's something yeah, and I guess that's the other problem too is there's something very very important that you do

Uh Like nice and early and then you do it again right before the end and it's called a stress test. They did And an online stress test beta like three months ago Yeah, I suppose another one right before not no, okay, not a public stress test You do an internal stress test where you spoof It but what in a public one be way more active it would be well It'd be reflective if your kickstarter backers are gonna jump in on it What not I was able to get into that that thing certainly certainly but but to really push it to the maximum

I need to know what happens when a hundred thousand connections hit this and you and you have and you have your Oh, so you fake it exactly and you have your net admin basically Put it through the ringer for a couple days Internally and see what happens because it will everything will hit a point of just like collapsing But you want to see how far you can push it and I guess if they didn't have the money for that Or if they didn't have the ability just to get that type of thing going then they couldn't have foreseen the problem one thing I could kind of size 2020 no matter what I think that if this game is as popular as it is where it's like almost like 75,000 people on day one like that's a lot

Is that maybe yeah, you should have probably had a fucking single player that people can play wall And people wanted that yeah, and and it's coming And they're like making this kind of problem because because people will still be pissed off like there's no fucking punisher game What where it was online only as well? No, it wasn't online only it you could play as you we We it was a single player thing, but it was just in a deathmatch mode But you didn't have to be online to do that But if you want to do any of the multiplayer stuff and unlock that shit. Yes, that that thing was online. No, it's just

This is worse I would say if you're fucking making a kickstarter game or anything that's that's that's very indie Do not make a fucking online only game, especially if you have a franchise that's or some type of Or just or don't like I'm like I even don't do it. It's just like if you're gonna do it Fucking don't put all your eggs into this. Yeah. Yeah, I never know have an offline training even you know what I mean That's where I'm like clearly know a lot about this from the testing and dev side But since I've been playing MMOs for quite a while like I know I've touched a bunch of them over the years And seeing this kind of failure and I I have been there for many of these specific failures

and the Basic response that you get is that you do your stress test, right? And your stress test basically informs The range that you should be expecting, right? And the problem is and blizzard is particularly guilty of this is that you look at okay We're gonna have literally 10 million people hit these this fucking thing tomorrow, right? But the day after it'll be 2 million. So how much do we want to spend? so that first hump

Is problem-free because that scales like it's exponentially more expensive You all you always have to account for the possibility of scaling and and this this situation seems like a problem in which this game is It seems like it's a good game, but it also has the bonus hook of being associated with a highly successful horror property That's bringing in people that could not have been expected Right like it's you described almost tripling their initial estimates, right? And if it had done well, it would have gone to more than triple, right? That's probably outside of even their most generous

ideals of both scalability and like The the high end of what they expected Like I am very much in the boat like this is totally on them. They this shouldn't be happening But this is the kind of thing that you usually it's fucked up for the first day and it's really fucked up for the second day I like how the second day. It's really fucked up. Well, yeah No, because the second day is when they start flipping switches and shit But what should have happened, right? I mean again hindsight is our day It starts to kind of smooth out even if they didn't have the resources to handle it, right?

What you would have gotten in an ideal scenario is again, they do their internal stress taste They get it's basically a controlled DDoS. Yeah, right and you hammer it and then they go. Oh, fuck This is awful and then the game doesn't laid And then the game gets delayed and then they go This is not coming out until we solve this and so you have that issue So that the the people that are coming and going like I don't know what a kickstarter or video games are but fuck you I like jason. So what's a video games? Here's my death threat to you now. This is the only way I communicate displeasure Here is my ordered list

Of of the family members. I want to anyway step one your dog. They had 12,000 backers on their Kickstarter. So they accounted for that and said let's expect Double that around 30,000 And then it's like no that was a they gave it. They told they they wrote that in an update No, I'm just I'm just looking at it right now. We're gonna start a thing. They had 12,000 They did say we we assumed we'd get around 30,000 on day one And it's like no, you got 75 that so 75,000 people down

Bought their game when only 12,000 backed it. Yeah So that that for that's rare I'm not sure if this has happened before in kickstarter with a big like an online game Well, they're very there are very few big online or they're very few Online only kickstarter games that have this kind of component It's the first large scale one that I can think of if there is I don't It exists as a as a It exists as a as a warning of like listen if you have limited funding

This is a problem that can be very very difficult to solve of them that it funded Like you can't There's a blizzard could just make this problem go away square could just make this problem go away Uh, uh, you know green in that can Microsoft or nintendo could make this problem go away But and if they that's the thing indie developer Yeah, if you pick a console you take a hit on your submission cost you take a hit on your qa cost You but then you don't worry about server costs And your game that's online only they're publishing it. Yeah, or no, no, no, no, no

I don't know. I mean I mean simply putting it out Yeah, right if you're putting out a game on playstation And you're and it has online play it's using psn Yeah, but when you when you submit to those particularly for your kickstarter pitch It's less like Enticing than say just putting it out on steam originally because this is on all those cars. There's on both consoles and pc Oh, it is. Oh, yeah, he's talked about ps4 and xbox one. Yeah, yeah Okay

Now the problem is the database that you connect to that isn't the peer-to-peer matchmaking is the thing that's dying That's there's one singular thing that's dying here and that's always going to be on their end Their own personal one. Okay, and they've been saying stuff like we're talking to microsoft I see some switches for us to hopefully help out, but it's not yeah, they can't no no They can't save you then no, that's that's the that's the external server they're paying for because because um, um, so for example, um Some of the some of the the stuff that we did for example like like tomb raider would have like online and whatnot But before any of that. Yeah, well Yeah, I worked on I know

But were you a voice in it? I might still be in it. I am but uh When you're not but but like all that shit aside Before that you had to connect to squaring x members. Yes And that was the only part of the game that went to an external database or connected to a third-party server Everything else was not connected at all and just the fact that that little Mode was in there completely changed the scope of online testing You know and it like

Really really ramped up the costs as well. Oh, yeah Fuck that's that's just a really well I wish them the best of luck But this does not seem like the kind of problem that'll be solved by tomorrow No, and like, you know, I wanted to stream it again and try to give it a go But it's like it's going to probably be like a month This is going to be a weird problem in which they might want to cancel the game for now and delay it The only thing I can honestly say that's like good about this is there's no shortage of games to play right now

So it's like if this was released in a lazy summer in 2002 dead by You know like what am I dead by daylight gets another few weeks to live Yeah, I guess so because this I think is a blunt dead by daylight out of the water in terms of maybe sales I don't know but uh, yeah, no, okay. I'm I'm really bummed about it But at the same time it's like I can't be too angry because it's like I really I everything I read the devs is like They they accounted for a lot of shit. It's just Okay, so hot off hot off the presses big hots Press and fix the problems. Wait, why is there? Let's let's see if we can find out more information straight up. Oh, we've apparently right now

friday the 13th game Let's get to their say let's get to their twitter. Maybe that'll have the maybe after the podcast I'll log into the steam version here. I just to see if it okay, so latest from their twitter Says 0.05 percent of players are still seeing the database login. That's across three platforms These give you that accounts we're looking into it That's the thing of for more information on what we fix and what is next That's the thing of people not even be able to log into the main menu Okay, so that might be fixed and that's what I said this morning

I was able to get past that point, but I couldn't find a game Okay, like I was I was sitting there for 30 minutes As of as of the beginning of this podcast they said they fixed it Which is three hours ago and then as of one hour ago Uh, they're yeah, they're down to less than one percent of players. Yeah. Hey, congrats. Good stuff So that's good that that the error that was stopping well from even so my stand activated once again And the game fixed itself immediately lie again again. I think you might not still be able to play it But there's

Like they're saying they're saying they're working on it right now The the database failure thing that just pops up as soon as you enter the main menu and locks all Options from even being selected that seems to be the error that's fixed right now And now is the thing of like actually going in and seeing if you can Connect to a game and even play it at that point. Okay, there's two like fucking hills to cross here Scale whatever Let's talk about far cry. Let's talk about far cry five I'm gonna play this far cry. Hell. Yeah, I'm gonna play this far cry

Look at it Joseph seed charismatic leader of the eden's gate cult eden's gate that has to have been taken It sounds so legit and real because I want to say come there must was what was the fucking cult that existed is even something No, no, I was heaven's gate. Heaven's gate. Heaven's gate. Heaven's gate was the real cult hell's gate. Hell's gate So Oh, man

You dead. Oh Damn, I got stomach. You'll enter in heaven's gate. February 27th of 2018 We're gonna get a game far cry five set in montana and You're taking out a cult in hope country There's you there's county. Sorry. Sorry. Uh, there's the resistance and You're just yeah living through That americana life. So you're talking about who is going to be the character of far cry five

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It has to be this main path. It's joseph c joseph c. Yeah, I'm thinking I am your father That's that's an easy like I I've been playing outlast two which literally has this guy And that but he but he looks like a Villain from re4. So it's a bit more grotesque than this guy But it's such an easy villain It's so easy to be charismatic because the entire point of being a crazy fucking cult guy Is that you have to be charismatic as fuck. You can't be a landstorm. No You've got to be d.o. You have to have you have to be natural 20. I absolutely love

I I absolutely adore like his Montana's is very pretty frontier like state and beautiful wilderness But then the trailer cuts to a shot of like an empty baseball field Like a little league baseball field and there's this weird Familiarity with that that it reminds me of one modern warfare. Uh took a lot of the fighting to the states Yeah, I remember there was that one stage that was literally in um the fucking little mini mart fucking the whataburger or whatever the Now I will say that I feel some of this experience. At least some of it was had in um, uh Uh bioshock infinite Where you're going through a very similar cult of americana. I disagree entirely

Bioshock infinite takes place in a fucking fantasy universe But that's why I say that's why I said partially because the main thing that sets it apart Of course besides being a flying city in the sky Is the fact that the time frame you're gonna be playing and there's a creepy cult that all believe in at the certain thing And that there's a resistance fighting them And the people that you're fighting are like like well, they're not really familiar because they're from a time from the past Or is this his modern day? Yeah, but I but I think like the american scary cult setting. Yeah, uh Hey, bray Wyatt's got his own game. Let's do it. Let's do it. Right. Yeah, let's fucking let's go investigate

The the wild white hot off. What are they the the the whites of uh What's that fucking movie called? Do you know the crazy white family? There's many Have eyes Yeah Um, the crazy white family describes a lot wrong. Sorry. No, I literally mean their last name is the whites. Oh Okay, well Yes, sure. That wasn't just a dream you had. Yeah

No, no, no, no, no, it's it's uh about the super duper The super oh, there's a bit where a guy's just running from a bear I'm like, you know, it's a good enemy for far cry a bear just a regular ass bear Well, that's the thing is that you know, uh, I was I was saying to some people on twitter I'm like I was kind of getting a little tired of the tropical It's uh, you know sort of environments you always kind of go to I mean far cry 4 is a bit different but Uh, and and it's great because they can reuse a lot of shit from far cry primals Oh, absolutely

There's a lot of like pine trees and things and even some of the animals the wild and wonderful whites of west virginia. Thank you Oh, right. This was a fantasia movie from the creators of jackass noxville and the crew followed this crazy family And they're nuts. Yeah. Anyway, that's what I was talking about You so he said they can use reuse bears and shit and I'm I'm I'm fascinated by this setting. I think it's super cool Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm Yeah, so I got a buddy of mine from out in montana Losing his shit over this because he lives in the town. He lives in a town that looks looks like it But he's and he's all he's at the point of like, oh man. I know that guy

Well, wait like the thing is like you can fly you could fly overhead in a plane and shit like that And I'm like, I'm wondering if they're ever if there's if it's gonna keep you in this fictional area Or if you're ever gonna get into There is no way this is all fiction Ville this is while county's quite large. Yeah, it's like he's he's young or whatever So like the hope county's it's probably gonna be inexplicably bound on all sides by the Rockies I guess like and there's one road out of town and it's blocked I guess it's just like if we're if something is san andreus huge

You know then like eventually you're gonna have to like hit the neighboring town or oh, they'll be all sorts of little towns Like I mean well, if you if you travel around like in you know the country even out here like there are some Fucking small towns not even one hour from here that encompass like eight homes And a store so we're getting we're getting Montana Sorry, I was just gonna say that this uh far cry primal didn't have co-op I don't think I have a co-op but like since this is the return of that I assume Yeah, this does have the good call but we're talking about okay because like I really want to want to give this a go It's it's been a while. It's literally just the player tube. Well. I'm not sure you saw the video that we did the far cry

Multiplayer where we intercut between Pat's footage. I saw some of it. It's a blast. I saw some of it Just just hey woolly get on this bike with me. Don't worry I won't crash it and not dive off at the last second while you're on the back Right, it's the best and it was the best without headsets. Oh, yeah, because we were trying it We were recording our own episodes and trying to figure out what the other guy was doing It's great Uh, yeah, so we're getting Montana. We're getting Detroit In game format. He means future. Yeah future Detroit

Um, I'm not sure if this will have towers far cry primal didn't really have towers It kind of had encampments, but you never climbed anything. You just cleared out If what if what video game settings in america have not yet been exploited? We've even had rainbow six vegas. I I don't think well, I think it's been overused I'd say I don't think the bayou has been done complete justice or a seven kind of glossed over it Louisiana louisian that might be in in a thing here and there, but I don't think it's like a big release has had A lot of focus there far cry camden

Camden camden You say the moment you it's it's one of those bullets are flying Everywhere like rain and like precipitation Delaware We're in Delaware Nothing iowa Far cry, Idaho one of those states that said the car is one particular Spokane spokane. How do you even say that name whatever is on the edges of the west and the east is Uh, maybe need like a far cry that's like in downtown like new york like it's actually just all buildings

Oh, and you got what are you hunting to get your upgrades? What what are you hunting to get your upgrades pizza? Yeah I don't know. I want hobos. Uh hobos sewer gators I want angry roving rats rats. I wanted rpg cockroaches. I want a detailed rpg that takes place on the new jersey turnpike I've been that's just the turnpike. That's a harsh environment that you have to fight survive Go into new york city. You were like, hey, we're gonna be in new york Where's the hotel? We'll tell you one word close and i'm like the hotel's in jersey That's a 40 minute ride from the fucking downtown new york, and they're like, yeah, that's why we waited to tell you player unknowns turnpike I'd play it

underwater far cry Like full like like atlantis or rapture Uh, atlantis atlantis seems more fun. Yeah, the atlantis was more fun than rapture Um Why not fuck it More more uh more blood dragon, please observations made Things that are known and accepted in the arms universe, but never questioned

There are ninjas and a ninja college slash university One ninja decides to join an international sports competition as a senior project People aren't born with arms, but instead just wake up one day. That is that that's right far the weirdest one boy decides to Join an international sports competition after he wakes up with them and says i was shocked at first, but they're pretty rad That would be you nobody knows where arms originated or why people get them and any attempts at trying to figure it out are thwarted by invisible force Ah An international corporation accidentally creates a thin synthetic being while trying to solve this mystery The synthetic being decides to join an international sports competition

A long dead man wakes up as an undead mummy The undead mummy decides to join an international sports competition to try and find is lost and assumed also dead family There are security bots that have robot dog companions A security bot and his robot dog companion decides to join an international sports competition as a single fighter and it's allowed An a-list actress decides to join an international sports competition using her hair as arms She doesn't actually have on snake boarding A snake boarder decides to join an international sports competition That isn't snake boarding to increase the viewership of his live streams snake boarding live streams

A young girl genius builds a mech suit with the purpose of joining an international sports competition Like her favorite pop idol One of the company one of the competitors is an international sports competition Is a pop idol singer a girl with noodle arms decides to join an international sports competition to promote her parents ramen shop Airtight arms the fact that there's any fiction should have any Understand this fiction is thwarted by a mysterious force.

Is there an inner is there another there's a smaller version of me piloting myself? You know, I mean and black is a good movie if you want to if you want to like you reveal something I mean, this is the way to do it. Okay.

I heard that I wanted you. Oh, you never do silly voices. Sorry. I'm just having to have podcast funsies over here Podcast funsies is the invisible force but the but the but again, it's to me. It's like it's the word funsies. That's so ridiculous Who says funsies? You said it. I said LP fun. I really never you invented the word funsies. That was your brain Man, I say funsies. No, I say funsies sometimes. Yeah. No, no when it happened. I just I said LP fun I have to look back. Yeah, your brain. I'll take that. Your brain just feel like that was like funsies It's one of those misattributed quotes

Oh I said the other day like I'm going steady and no one says that Matt Uh Whatever, what's the emails? Yeah, you can just go shut up. I have a car now Yeah, but someone's gonna key it at any second Someone's keying it right now. Someone's keying it and then I was like, what are you doing? You're like car funsies I'll put a banana in your tailpipe fucking invisible force over here. Let's take one from Nicholas Hey, mr. Pickles, what up? Hey boom boom blaster knots love reading and writing about AI

So I have a simple question for you Imagine an apocalypse where humans became a simple dumb simple and dumb except for one dying scientist Who managed to make a robot who was immortal powerful and all knowing right before he died A task nobody was able to replicate you not even the robot itself And this robot proceeds to guide the human race into a perfect future. Yeah would uh My question is who would these dumb humans choose to be their god the savior or the creator of the savior Well, they if they're done, they're gonna take the robot. Yeah, because the robot lives forever and that guy's dead

Yeah, that's easy. Well, I mean literally you can analog that to what we have where Jesus is the robot and the father Holy shit the say is the creator damn And so in that case it's like all of them Well, yeah, but that assumes that the scientist is forever also Yeah, but all you're missing is a holy ghost there So you can just go like so the creator the robot and the robot ghost create the treaty So what you're saying is that the humans won't be able to agree There's our videos of the guy strife

Is there videos of the scientists doing stuff to people actually remember seeing them? Yeah, the clip goes. My name is dr. Thomas light Okay Fair enough If you're seeing and you have to get dr. Wahee. Wahee uh We got one coming in from the house roll Uh, one coming in from why I built you jemton, uh pratt batam. That's not real

I think it might be like jemson pratt batam at gmail.com says, uh 2017 7 quarter fiscal annual audit report dear sir madame We hereby acknowledge the receipt of your email Note that uh, we are the senate committee and we've been probing foreign depths delaying your payment Your name was shortlisted however In that regard we officially want to inform you that the central bank of nigeria have accepted approval For the part payment of the ministry of finance after several failed attempts to divert the funds to your government officials And the banks formally handling your payment file You're expected to come to nigeria to sign off on your fund release order

We look forward to your prompt response important. You better get on that Yep, you better get on that woolly and only woolly will do jemton will do You're right. I was wrong. That sounds very real Dare to reinfuck face. I vaguely remember a conversation several months back where you expressed your frustrations with Aka the world ends with you

And I wanted to know if you ended up trying out the mobile version solar remix of the game. Um, yeah, I did talked about it a bit It's on my permanent list of games to play on my phone But I never play it. I'm still a couple hours and I'm still in the middle of it And it definitely helps and allows me to get through it But I still feel that the way it's not the the the fighting the the gestures you draw Still feels random It still feels like you're just randomly swiping at the screen and I feel that having inputs would have been better But that being said, I tried the mobile version. I hated it

I thought it was incredibly inaccurate compared to the ds version and I have no explanation Fair enough Why why you can get a grasp on that and I'm swiping a million times and nothing is nothing's happening on screen It's because and I'm using an iPad. I I hated the puck pass, you know, so I'll take anything without it. I it was annoying to me. I don't know what to tell you Uh pat, why do you hate style switching in combat? Uh, super best opi food Nari sama cast I love pat I really do but I noticed in games like yakuza in bloodborne

Uh, excuse me yakuza in bloodborne He seems to hate combat that transfer transitions into each other For example in yakuza, he plays magma and he doesn't use breaker style as an opener He also doesn't space before attacking to wind up the breaker attacks to be more effective So he can build me to really fasten a group of enemies and then switch to another style I think that's just pat not knowing not that he doesn't want to do it. There's a no, he's right Especially during bloodborne when he doesn't use transformation attacks When page is playing he actively would say that weapons like the the boom hammer and the tontranus are garbage

And simply transitioning between attacks to get transition attacks to charge up the weapon before attacking again Is it just those games? What's the deal? I don't like characters that change stances in in fighters as well and that's been on On a point that I can't stand characters with lots of stand switching I want to have everything that I have Locked in and as it is at all times I want to play. I don't switch styles with dante. Damn You're missing out on some points. I prefer nero. You're missing out on some spoken style

Give a shit. Oh, I want to play I want to have a completely defined locked character that has everything available Instantaneously that is unfortunate because switching styles is the coolest and most stylish thing. It's awesome Lei wu long man. I don't like lei's dance switching So cool. I don't I like to to a certain degree There's not going to be much beyond on this answer of like I don't want to change it Yeah, I want it to be rigidly set and if it's not rigidly set. I will rigidly set it Um, I don't like I don't know. I don't like it hero B says not a question, but I wanted to

Uh praise willy and matt for this ongoing friendship with pat without giving him shit about how he absolutely can't whistle But damn well thinks he can wait who's can't whistle. I can't I can whistle I can't really Not him after all this time is deserving of some kind of metal you guys are great. Thanks for all the content It's as close as I can do it Yeah, that's that's better whistling. Okay. Okay, I can't I can't carry a tune for shit, but But and I I hella can't do the the you know that you put your fingers in that you make the really no, that's hard to do I

See that's pretty good. I sorry. Did we ever talk about whistling where we were like no It just apparently someone has evidence that you know, it's awesome All this blowing into the microphones that we've been doing as a result fantastic There we go Matt uh Justin from long island wants to know if you've seen the movie a cure for wellness Or if you've heard of it. Uh, yes, I have and uh, what you thought a cure for wellness is the Weird horror movie that gore verbinski like did after a bio shock the movie got cancelled

For no reason. Yep. Uh, then he's like, I don't make this weird fucking thing So there's like kind of water scares in there. There's weird tendrils and things Um, it starts the guy that played uh, harry osborne in the amazing spider-man movies Which I I like that actor. I have not yet seen it. Uh, it was not playing at any movie theaters around I was kind of an indie thing, but I heard it's I heard it's very interesting I heard it's it's kind of one of those difficult like almost david lynching like I don't under what's going on But I would like to see it. Uh, I don't know if it's out now on vod's or anything But if it is let me know because I didn't want to see that one

okay, yeah, uh apparently it is a Yeah, horror movie that he said got middling reviews, but I haven't heard of it weird name Yeah, it's kind of like like people are going nuts. And there's like this weird, uh, hospital and I don't know a lot about it because like I watch a trailer and it was one of those things I don't I don't know what's going on. You know, it's kind of weird, but uh, I did want to check it out okay, uh

Take one from Oh, yeah, we should probably uh, uh, Hanzo's asking what's going on at the website Player's changing, isn't it? I believe that is the case Um, yeah, so anyone who's having trouble with the website, which is everyone Yes, uh, ever since the start of the playthrough for uh, la noir. Yeah, the website hasn't been working So that's because I think we're changing out the player As far as we know. Yeah Gotta make more inquiries. We don't actually run the technical end of the website. We do not

Because we don't know how to do that And one there's a random screenshot for a cure for wellness Okay, that's a fun screenshot. It's a guy with a weird guy again weird dentist shit and it's one of those things they put on um on Like clockwork orange. I knew you're gonna say but for your mouth rather than your eyes. Yeah yeah which You know, it's scary shows up in other types of videos. Yes. Yes, it does

Uh, and lastly, let's take one uh from lucian. They're super best crime lords recently Yeah, recently took woolly's advice and I released a fan game to a much beloved series Unfortunately, the publisher who have been instructed not to name as the trial is ongoing is suing me I'm looking at 10 years in the big house that got me thinking If you were sent to jail because of following woolly's terrible legal advice That's right and could train under any fictional character to learn their style to defend yourself in the slammer Who would you pick? Right here? Hmm

That's a good jail to break me out of jail Well, just in general to defend yourself is safe in jail. Keep me safe in jail. Yeah, so a prison buddy No, a mentor to teach you a style Yeah, you happen to share your cell with a really nice guy Okay, allow me to read it back verbatim No, no, no, I heard the start and I heard the end so I thought it was someone to defend you so you don't go to jail No, no, no, no, no, you're in jail. Okay, if you were sent to jail And could train under any fictional character to learn their style to defend yourself. Yes, who would you pick? Sajima?

He does pretty well But all of his friends end up getting fucking killed. Oh, well That's the guy though. He's pretty cool. Yeah, uh, maybe he went worth miller You can bring me out of jail there for get some prison break going Uh As much as I'd love to say Jolyne, I wouldn't be able to do shit without getting arrowed So I'm getting arrowed. It's a pretty raw dice roll. It is it is

Uh Unless you have a crazy diamond nearby to cheat. Yeah But I'm gonna say or a gold experience either one. Yeah, yeah I mean to cheat cheat. I'm gonna say dr. Strange Uh-huh because Being able to leave my body while in prison means I can just go out and be awesome And if anyone wants to fuck with me in prison, I can go fuck with them in their cells And you can just watch them fuck with you

No, you know outside your body be like, oh wow. They're really fucking me up No, before they got to fuck with me. I'd go in and astral form astral plane It just why don't you even be in jail at this point? They I followed my own legal advice. Oh, it was terrible. It was bad. Yeah. Yeah, I released it That sucks how you put that guy in the big house. I mean, hey, you're yours. I told him not to listen to me I feel like that sentence is like intellectually dishonest because if you tell people not to listen to what you just said Why did you say it? You fucking say that all the time to me What you'll say to do something and then I'm like, okay, and it's a huge bad advice

You look wise listen to me. I guess you trapped me in my own lies because if if how bad the advice is is Outweighed by how funny it is. Yeah, then fuck you. That's the reason you're getting a match about the window Oh, I died. I didn't tell you to do that. That would be the best end to a podcast, bro It would be It would be But fortunately an invisible force throws me back in All right, um So what's coming up? What's coming out?

Okay, what's coming out tech in tech in seven on friday friday How probably not gonna get a not gonna get a um fisticuffs and time If that would mean we'd have to record it like that afternoon We'd have to whip billy and then more than usual. We have more and that's so that'll be though the next That'll be next week. I don't know unless that'll give us time to practice Yeah, I'm gonna be streaming it on friday night because I want to play tech in I haven't played as king in like four years five years Oh, man. First four has this awesome tech in king statue We didn't talk about the fucking tech insult guy

That motherfucker resolution. Oh, yeah, we forgot to talk about that super motherfucker. Isn't wasn't that kotaku Embellishing something well, I saw the footage of him changing the shit No, I but I saw mark man right into kotaku saying hey that that wasn't cool. You didn't you didn't report on this properly I don't know. I think killer instinct having uh, it's evo moment 37 was more hype Because there was a ridiculously sick comeback in a in a oh, I saw that I think slowly where where um cinder Was fighting um saber wolf and he's got the bombs on him and the clocks running out and With like no life left. He lands a touch and immediately goes into an ultra

And it's the sickest thing. It's a perfect comeback the same theory time of the combo breaker Yeah, but we're talking about the guy that was like fuck this resolution. That's why you won. I'm talking about killer instinct No, I'm talking about that. Yeah, he's talking you're talking about the resolution. Yeah, okay. Sorry. I thought we were a guy who The guy who gets perfected and then immediately goes and fucking fucks the resolution sections things in the middle of the match which I don't know about you, but shouldn't that be like an immediate loss to like pause and quit out of the game Yeah, so I don't know what I don't know what kotaku had to say about it But I mean, I don't know the details either. I just saw some people saying something like they were they were misrepresenting

What the story was about? I don't know. Let's find out I guess you can't trust tech and players Uh Corrected in brackets. Oh, no. So what's the correct? Oh, this is less fun now. Let's find out what happened At combo breaker, uh, yeah, kodia kazooia player who had just been on the wrong end of a perfect round Uh hit the playstation guide button to check the resolution the crowd commentators and the opponent surprise After changing the resolution and moving on to the next game the commenters elaborated Some pros believe that the game performs better when played at 720p rather than 900 or 1080. It's still unproven But he believed this was the reason for his performance in game one in a perfect

Yeah Yeah, it would then follow that he should perform better with the new resolution But uh tanukana who was on a roll from the main stage and she seemed to be fine And continued to with that resolution. What's the correction took the game? Three to one. Okay. So the update says kodia reached out via twitter to say he does not blame the resolution for his loss And at least five people have also complained of the lag Related to the resolution another and then another correction says the main article And its headline initially inaccurately said that kodia blamed the resolution for his loss

But he fucking exits out of the game to go change the resolution Well The fact that he doesn't say it it's not the resolution It's the fact there's apparently a frame disadvantage on that resolution if that's a different thing That seems like the most trivial correction ever. Yeah, I think it is maybe I don't know I didn't say that's why I lost I just went and changed it in the middle of the match, which should have disqualified me There's a tweezers, but I never blamed anything get it right. Hey man. Hey man. That's horses. Maybe he's like I I lost that round. That's quiet salt that I lost that round. I got owned. Okay. Hey, let me check the resolution

Let me you know, it's not john's if you don't you're not familiar with the tech internment I'm gonna assume but I know you are extremely familiar with evo rules If you were playing evo grand finals And after a perfect somebody fucking hit start and fucking went and changed resolution on the game Is that not an automatic disqualification? No No Because a lot of the official rules for tournaments are main are based around the idea of active play So, uh, if you hit an ultra

That is going to kill the character and the round is still playing and I pause The round is still over. It doesn't matter So that's in the same place even if you if I walk away while you're doing a fatality Okay, even if you change parts of the setup without the acknowledgement or permission of yeah, that's of the other player Yeah, so that so that going into settings and change like just exiting the game Right when you're not actually actively playing is not in itself an infraction So when he goes and changes Changing the settings on the console would usually be a yellow card by pause. Hey, what are you doing? What the fuck's going on here?

Did you do it? Did you do it during like characters? It was after the match. It was it was it was during a match That should be fine. So that's what so that but but I'm saying like to just like that's how you it's not a disqualification What if what if the other players like no, I want to play at that resolution that I walked in at and it's like No, no, no, no the setup the setup's condition is determined by the judges and I find that and the the venue You know like uh, or rather the tournament the to like you don't have a player changing other shit I think that's bizarre. That's not that's not okay, you know, but Um, but to just to get you disqualified or to have you lose the round or whatever active play Okay, that makes that makes sense. I don't like it. I actually think because I know

But it's like some fighting games or some games in general competitively have points where it's like it's active play But it's not so once you once you get Once you get all once you get knocked out of bounds and smash and the character You know when if the character's flying by and it takes a while for you to lose You need to have the time to stand up and throw your controller through a wall If you're playing marvel and two and someone's doing a loop an infinite loop. Oh, you can just get up Yeah, assuming they don't drop their combo which happens. Yeah all the time. There's great videos I was that guilty gear moment. That's never gonna go away. What are you standing up for?

What are you standing up for? What are you standing up for? Ah, that's great. So yeah, ah, anyway, uh coming up coming out tech and seven To show that eagle teaser. Oh, yeah, they did. Yes.
