I
Need a job Jesus Christ. Mm-hmm. What? Yeah, that's not it
It's a bit of the ceiling fuck it. Yeah, there we go
Try to find out where I am
So like what so our gaming chairs in fact the solution is this what we're gonna have to do
I don't know because I feel like right now these office chairs. We have are not great
I don't know if they're the answer so
Like woolly your armrest started to fall apart a little while little bit
Then these are these are those big boy office chairs that all the big office people sit in all the time
Oh, my armrest is gone. I'm not like it. My chair is perfectly fine, but it's not all that comfy
I have to pull all this fucking additional Matt ass support. What is yeah, I see it if
Does anyone know what a good chair is? This is the worst tripod I've ever seen. It's a monopod. It's the worst monopod
It's the worst tripod I've ever seen. Did you did you know? Hey, it's fine
It's got three legs everyone at home. Did you know that Matt isn't just permanently at like a 20 degree angle?
It's like he's actually need to get tying up on this bolt down there. Actually. Yeah, that's right. There you go
Hey, look, I've never been more straight. That doesn't matter
I'm gonna right now assume the podcast started. Yeah. Oh you start because
People can people can hear the camera tilt. Oh fuck. That's weird and the chairs creak
The what they can do the bulk what they can hear is these chairs falling apart as we sit on them because they live
They've not held up a lot of asshole damage going on on these chairs
I don't know what the deal is because you think you like okay
So this is what people spend their money on and then it's gonna last a while because it's all
Comforted and it's got all these special bullet points on the back of the box
It's a and now I'm like I fucking it's already got to go
But I was talking to someone they're like the chairs that we all bought
Therefore what is assuming someone that sits down in an office for like a little bit and does other shit
It's like for your home. Yeah, you have to get the ones they're designed for boring bland offices
You need to get that look really uncomfortable, but actually are not need to get the accounting chair
Yeah, you need to get like yeah
The thing that I don't get is it's happening to me and wallies as chairs
Why are the armrests going how much stress? Yeah, I don't know. I don't know, but is it is it is it?
I don't rub my asshole on the arm. It might be in fact time to get fucking e-sports chairs up in this
You want to have a e-sports chair? We might need to go where fake ties
We might need to go e-sports chairs because that seems to be the future. I don't know
I want to try one. We should ask my people say it fucking runs
You should say max has had the same three or four gaming chairs in his stream room for like five years
And they've been comfy and you know what eight hours of street
Yeah, no, they those those have been super comfortable like I feel like we might actually need to step
It's probably yelling at us not to you should call my cross and see if he has any of his old e-sports chairs
That he doesn't need anymore. He doesn't need those chairs. I need a e-sports. He regularly has bonfires with them
Oh, man, I'm gonna burn down all of e-sports
That's a backyard. He has a permanent fixture, which is the e-sports chair bonfire burning since is he made those comments
Is good is good text still an e-sports? Yeah, okay. I always seen or heard of good text in like a while
He's doing shit. He keeps going to the future and back again. Yeah, that was the last thing I heard
He put a book out on Amazon
And it did really well and yeah, you should have made it an audio book
How not to get scummed up by e-sports? Is that what it was about and how not to go on to an e-sports?
I don't I'm
I mean you ever get one in one of those traps where there's a word that you just enjoy to say and
Then you just say it too much like like e-sports like he's I keep I keep wanting to say e-sports because it's funny to me
It's just by itself. Well, it's not a sport. It is. Why is it all my e-s-pn?
It's not a sport. It's just I mean it is a sport. It's just a shitty sport
Yeah, yes, yeah, like one of the primest real estate locations in our city
On Saint Laurent and and and fucking whatever is a Montreal e-sports. Yeah
It's a huge like and there's teams. There's team logos
Yeah, something something grizzly the grizzlies. That's that's some GSP's team the the overall and the overwatch group
That's cool. They yeah, I would want to have sports team type logos for me
If I was on if I was good enough if I was good at video games
I was on an e-sports team. Yeah, the sports logos or I could be the mascot like I could wear the bear costume
Yeah, I'll be that guy. Should we start at e-sport? No
Depends on what the game is
No, Willie I dress up like Rocco, I dress up with your own giant head
We can we could like like we couldn't we couldn't get into any overwatch leagues or any like major
Dota championships, but we could probably get a general jousting team together. I feel we could get some
Sponsors
Esports, what is is that bad now people are getting paid to play overwatch the end?
I think there was someone on a team that said a bad thing. Yeah, no, that's that's that's that is a one-to-one
Overtime scenario on every league that happens champions be that's why will he warns us when the mics turn on before the podcasters in case
But no, I think I think we could probably put some some sponsorships together for Don Don't already leave
Yeah, steam poverty
Super pillow fight. Did you see Max was actually streaming that trash? That's cuz I told him to yeah, I know I know that was obvious
That was very obvious. Well, I was on a stream and he was playing now
It's Prince of Persia because of course I was I just show up and Max was like
Yeah, he heard the call
And I was like hey you guys seen super pillow fight because again
You know, we're always five steps ahead and they're like oh, it's okay. Yeah. Oh, yeah
We got a stream this now tomorrow super pillow fight
What was the other game there's brothers no, it was a weird combination of super pillow fight and yeah dead pool
Okay, okay, cuz of the topical
Wait shit that come out. Yeah shit. Dang you guys see it. I didn't see it. Is it good. It's funny and
That's a weird reaction to that question. It's it's hilarious
Okay, one of the mid the the post credit scenes is like one of the so so that's that's where we go, right?
Like what did you do this week? Should I should I just go after the podcast to watch Deadpool?
Yeah, do go do it go watch go watch Deadpool. Um, so no no spoiler cast necessary because I wouldn't think quite frankly
It's just it's Deadpool. It's a it's really funny. Um
The is it good question is almost like it almost doesn't matter because the movie itself doesn't care about being good
Oh, that's interesting. It's bull. I like that. It doesn't care about
Anything and it's just fucking hard-swerving into
Punchline takes precedence over plot all other priorities at all times, right? Okay, so
How is how is Thanos as cable sure?
Yeah, no, they know that was a question. I you know what cables fine
Domino's great and the movie's fucking hilarious having a resurgence of love on Domino
I remember not really being every cuz every time I remember every time I came out
Yeah, cuz every time I'd bring her up in a way you'd be like you and Domino
I don't like you know you and that one fucking fucking story
Green and Domino's fuck around the world. Oh that's sex and violence bringing that up again. No, no, no
Talking about Domino as a character Domino's brings it up every time like recently like even like a bit before the movie was ever shown
Yeah, yeah fucking Domino and it but it's good
But it's but it's in that same life held wet a way where it's like she just luck
You know what I mean? That's all there is to it. It's long shot was lucky, too
So, so yeah, it's a very fun power to write into your story because it lets you do anything. It does it does also
Yes, fuck fighting should be celebrated at all times
Anyway, no da Deadpool's Deadpool hilarious
It's worth watching and and like it it is I will say like it fucking puts the the
Punctuation at the end of the sentence that is post credits
shenanigans, okay post credits like like blooper joke or whatever the fuck so
Here's here's okay. I'm gonna ask you a question and I know it's not gonna be the less
I say the better remember that so the the ultimate post credit sequence that I've always wanted has been of
You know two-hour movie or whatever and then you do whatever and the post credit sequence is like
18 minutes long
Through the full credit sequence yeah, yeah, yeah, and then the post credits is like the full rest of the movie
Right was ever gonna be a movie that would do that it would be dead. Yeah, and and my question is is it that is it?
It's a 20 to 35 minute long extra credit in an hour and a half. It's absolutely not that okay
So now I can set my expectations accordingly. It's absolutely not that what it is to me
Is better than the film itself?
That's how good. I'm hearing it's it is and I don't know what it is. I I don't know what that means
I don't know what I don't I'm not gonna say anything else except I
How old okay, so I okay
I have a question about its context. I don't want to say anything else fine
So it's a right. It's a and what does that mean that you would be happier if this had been released as a skit
But or no, it needs it needs the movie
Okay, that's that hundred percent. I would I would uh
Yeah, no, I was at home all day, so I didn't go with any of you guys
But like I wanted to see it, but I was like no I can't but I
Sucks to miss your howl because I just remember the first opening joke in Anchorman 2
Where it's like the baby the exposed breast and you were done
A good five minutes you were done
There's it it's sometimes it just gets you I have a general question about the movie that you can just say yes or no
Yep, is there a villain that the trailer does not show is
There is there a villain in the movie that the trailer never talked about or showed at all
Yeah, okay, I figured okay
Um
Cool, I'm gonna go see Deadpool now. There's more than one but like a known one well
No, the other the other the other is just like yeah anyway
There's there's there's stuff that the trailer doesn't tell you at all for sure again. Is spider-man in it
Anyway, so I feel like we're at this point now one no more questions
It's not it has nothing to do with Deadpool, but I feel like because Disney owns everything now
That every single comic book movie thing is going to be just rife with the worst
Series of questions ever of like did Wolverine show up in this one? Yeah
Yeah, like I think I was telling this to Willie before it's like while they got sold
It's like you know Fox will not be under any new banner until like 2020
So right so see any actual
That unless they they
But like they're but like all of the promo material has had those things like
Crossing out the word 20th century Fox and just going like question mark TBD all that stuff and like yeah
They point to that going like whoa might be it might be under the same pattern, but anyway
Yeah
You know how like you know how one P. Diddy puff daddy
Yes, I'm vaguely familiar
Said one time don't worry if I write rhymes. I write checks
This is like that. This is don't worry if I'm good. I got jokes
And and good joke. That's it. Okay
So yeah, I'm glad you enjoyed your movie. I am hoping to enjoy it very quickly did that um
No, none of you guys are bothering with Westworld right now, right? Um, no, so I
Briefly heard at some why you mentioned it you mentioned on the podcast that was back and it you it was like three or four in
Mm-hmm, and I'm like well if I missed it by now
I might as well just wait till it's like a couple weeks and then it's over and then let's through it
Yeah, and then I saw something. Yeah made me upset
Yeah, and it was you again, and it was you talking on Twitter, and it was you saying oh fuck
Westworld's falling apart. Mm-hmm, and I went oh
Please tell me more about that
So in general story because like you said plot holes are starting to compound on each other in a way that is making
Instead of covering the plot holes, they're goat seeing them wider
right and
They're doing the best they can to just yet to just you know Manos grande
The problems into a you know, why would you make it wider?
But here's the thing though like in the process of doing that like
school shit still happens
But like though and like the westward doesn't concern itself with being good
It sure doesn't um that is a humorless program the
The latest episode in particular, and it feels like a bunch of the season two in general is doing um
Fan service is the best way I can describe it that is not why I watched that first season
I did not expect this to be a series that even had that exactly
Exactly right and service in universe or is it fan service to the people who are actually watching fan service in universe?
and and it's and it's like
That's the best way to describe it. I feel because it's like
The it's not like the first season is really good because it's spending its time
Trying to ask subtle questions. It's it's it's a really I don't know what this it's was it ten episodes
The first season yeah, yeah, but and like but it feels super long
It does like it it is it there's a lot of really slow shit the last episode if I didn't watch it
But I just know this last episode was a movie. Yeah
I remember reading somewhere so so the like the one of the best one of the best ways to I think put it in context is
The first episode of the first season mm-hmm the stinger of that episode is great is
The most it's a gesture. Mm-hmm. You know what I do? Do you remember what I'm talking about like?
No, I didn't watch all of the first season. Oh, did you want the first up first episode? Yes
It's it's remember the last thing in the first episode. No, I don't okay at this point
I don't mind just saying it's a single moment mm-hmm a fly
Flies and lands on someone. Yeah, okay, and it's like, huh, right that that and then it's like it's just object
That's all that happens and you go oh
It leaves you going interesting because it's so really creepy shot
But it's but it implies a lot and there's a lot of thought going into such a small little thing
Oh, where's this story gonna go?
subtlety, you know subtlety and then Jonathan Nolan takes that and carries it all the way through to the end and
Season two he's a lot less involved in the writing. I can see his name his I went to check and he's behind like two of the five episodes so far
I think um and
It's not that at all and it's not handling anything in that subtle way
It's just being much more
Brash loud raw raw and it's and it's like the the the setup between where the plot had to go was going to become a louder more
pointed um action story but
Uh, they're but they left
Interesting questions on the table and now instead of answering them
They're kind of just rolling off or the cats just pushing it off slowly until it crashes
There was a feeling that I got watching the last episode of the first season of Westworld in which
Before obvious loose threads started to manifest
And it actually looked like things were going to resolve and then have one big open question
That would just stay open because that would be the end and for some reason
I'm like oh, is this going to be a mini series and then you get to the last half hour and just like loose and loose and loose
and
like the the the uh the season finale of the first uh season as well
Um while not while not going into detail
I'll just say like it introduces quite like moat things that make you go
Oh, whoa, what what right because that's what a season finale does when it wants to
Hook your balls and pull you along to get your get re up tether you right and so it goes
What what what and like those like holy shit. What is that?
What is that things now the second season is starting to like explore them?
But or at least introduce them, but there's not as much depth to them as focusing on the central
Plot of the initial story. There's just these little like fan service things that they drop in and they make you go
Oh, fuck. That's cool
but
What else so you know there's there's there's a I mean there's there's obviously every story's got it's it's it's
Parts right you have your theme you have your character. You have your plot
Right and you have your setting. Yeah, right the first
The first season was near
overwhelmingly
Like setting and theme
Instead of character based or plot based and what I'm hearing from you now
Is that the second season is now like overwhelmingly like plot or action or?
Overwhelmingly it is it is majority it is majority
there's there's action and
um
New setting and then you go. Oh wow new setting because oh that's setting that we want. I'm curious
Okay, that one great. You know I I wow. Okay, huh?
I was curious to see where
The rest of this like what the deal with that shit was yeah, okay
And you're and so like that has a level of interest behind it, but um, but then once you're there
It's like, okay, but what else are we doing? Are we going back to those like?
Developing questions about AI are we going back to those like, you know
Those those david cage become human questions. Yes, you know what I mean?
Are we going back to that moment where a fly lands on someone or are we?
Kind of just gonna like has there been a single pull a machine gun out has there been a
And walk forward while we use it in this new season
That has the same not even not even as good, but has the same tone or feeling as what door
Because that because that's the best moment
There's in in west world. There's something up. There's something approaching that that happens. That's good
um
But it's good and bad at the same time because
It's like that sounds really good. And this is what so this is why I tweeted out the fact that I'm like like
That's all right. Like when you have like you take like you you introduce like a black mirror type premise in a way
Where you go? Oh, that's a fun thought experiment. That's some brain candy, right? But also
um
It it's like if you follow through on this interesting idea like it's an interesting idea to introduce
But then if you follow through on it, it becomes a crutch for lazy writing and you're worried
I'm worried that it'll become a crutch for lazy writing. What if you know and and and what if humans were the robots the whole time?
Uh, you know, what if the interesting question of like two sides
That are both right that are fighting each other. Yeah
what if
a sudden third party
Were to exist and then both parties could turn and go. Oh that though
Yeah, don't worry about the interesting complexities of our dynamics and our conflict. Yeah, we can just
Look at that. That's not not that's not what I'm saying is happening
But I'm saying that's an example of how it would be like shitty to ignore
an interesting
Conversation between two people by bringing in hitler and just going like it's it's the fuck that old conversation
So it's so what there's hitler. So what you're saying is is freddie and jason are fighting, right?
And you're like, oh man, I wonder who's gonna win freddie versus jason. Oh, this is gonna be so exciting
And then gi joe shows up and then they decide to fight gi joe and you're like, but no, I wanted to know
I wanted to know who was gonna win between freddie and jason. I don't I don't want to see a team up
That can work, but it has the third party better fucking like
It was freddie versus jason ash from evil dead needs to show up and then you're like
Oh my god, that's so cool because it thematically works
But if it's like a third party like you're saying like you're describing. It's like, yeah, that sounds messy
I'm I'm I'm reserving final judgment till the end of the season
Um, but I'm commenting on where we're at right now
And like what you've been forced to swallow at this point. There are problems
There's some fun stuff too and they can still write themselves out of
Some of those problems I have I have but there's some of them that but not all of them
I have a stupid question that is not as stupid as it appears but bear with me
Um, is anthony hopkins in the season?
As an actor
Did he get paid did he get paid for something you might have okay, that's sure. Thanks
um
that's a
Yeah, I that's a that's a hard to answer. Anyway, uh, obviously
Because that first season
Rode on his coattails. Let's just sort of offer this dad that entirely. Uh, stop thinking about the, um
The the what I was gonna say is there is an interesting problem to this
I haven't seen in a long time in in any media where, um
You know, okay, so you might you might have heard about this look on you might have heard about part five of jojo a little bit
Yeah, I've heard a thing and one of the funnest one of the funniest parts about jojo part five is
There is literally a character that is so powerful
That they have to just be written out of the story. Yeah, that's what purple haze man
Don't worry about it because some people still haven't you know, but like there's a character that's just like no, that's too good
That solves the problem. I accidentally overwrote this. Yeah. Um, and so westworld has a little bit of that problem where it's like
There's someone that's so powerful. Someone needs nerfing
But they and then they kind of only realized at the last second that they needed to nerf this character
And so they
They started nerfing the character. That was a problem in the later season. Oh, but then yeah, okay
I know what but then as they started nerfing the character. They were they were burping them at the same time
They were burping buff nerf, but that's not a word. It is a word. You made it killer instinct. Go look it up
What really? Yeah. Oh, no, and so they started burping this character
and uh
It just gets ugly as you're watching them scramble to like
Create problems for someone that's too strong
There was a character in season one that was starting to be established as having no limits
So I assume you're saying they had to have limits put on them
But it doesn't but it doesn't otherwise. What is conflict, right?
Oh, because I yeah, I remember thinking like what if that character just starts walking around like charlie or akuma or
What is what is conflict when you are like top tier and the answer is
Bad writing. Yeah, so so
They so yeah seems really cool. Let's put it in
They fixed it
You want to think about it if the seat like like like just make the character wear weighted clothing the entire
No, that's not the problem with this one season one season one could have literally closed itself off
Yeah, I like it could have it could have but anyway, um, you know reserve judgment till the end, but definitely weaker so far
um
So and and and any and again like the other things any more detail I go into is going to start giving you ideas
So you're saying they put the handcuffs on kodi, but it made kodi even stronger
You oh god
It does because it makes them more intimidating
It was no no so you had the handcuffs on right and then you took one off
Yeah, and the other one's on
And you're like look, but he has one handcuff off and you're like
But what's the difference between not having any handcuffs on or having it on one arm your arms are still free
Okay, but you know
Okay, your arms are still free and you're like no, but he still has it hanging from one
But now he can swing a little piece of metal around too. So you get that's what it is. Okay, you know that sounds
That sounds just awful, but we kept it on. Yeah. Anyway, uh
Boy, how's the acting still good performance is still good. Oh, yeah, that's yeah. Um
I especially like
Yeah, some real
huge props and chops to
uh
the actors that like
performed
Speaking different languages. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah
Fucking impressive at that the most the most impressive thing about what season one's acting was all the robot characters having to turn on a
Dime in bizarre situations. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, you're saying they're adding languages to that actor
There's there's you know, you know, you know, I like people have to learn elvish to fucking do lord of the rings and what not
Yeah, well, okay, but those anyway, no those those
Those some some impressive you infected me with that
With thinking that's funny
I never thought that fucking elrond or whatever for more of the rings was funny
Until you like one day just started losing it over agent smith with the little with the little side curve
coming down his fucking face
They're very much the same character
And uh
In and and for both think humans are not great. Yeah, that's true
Um, and I played like a couple things and these are things that um
This is I'll this that you're under nda. Are you under nda? No, but I'll say but I'll be close
Okay, I'll I'll preface this these I'll preface this with don't at me. Okay. All right, don't at me
Is it you know what I mean? Because like these are things that are in the process of going and obviously
heavy spoiler possibilities and such and I want to just enjoy so one
Uh, I have started near auto automata. I just I added you right
Automata automata
Whatever I call automatic tomatoes automata. Yep. So that's going right now and that's really fucking good so far
The music is incredible. The action is incredible. Everything's incredible. Uh, but is it character action?
Yeah, there's no actual ranking of your I don't know. I I don't know what I don't know
Oh, sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Okay
I'm I answered the question you didn't ask later down the conversation. Obviously it's character action
This is what happens to me a lot. Sorry to put a pause to you start jumping ahead
I jump ahead in the converse or I'll say something or leave something open, right?
And then people will hear you say is it character action and I'll go
I don't know and then that'll become a topic where woolly. You're an idiot, but no
But you actually said that's character action
But I don't know if it's pure because it doesn't have the ranking systems at the end of the fight
And and and I mean the answer is a fucking course. It is right
I said, I don't know in response to of course it is
But why would you say this back on that conversation you had about what's character action?
And then my my I don't know was I don't know what my definition is and if it's good or not
So I answered a question that no one asked
But it was back to back with yours and it creates an out of context awful moment where it sounds like I don't know
What the fuck I'm talking about what I usually don't greatest flaw
What a huge so the music obviously stands out very quickly very fast
Would you say that it's it's good enough to win an award but not actually be shown at that award?
Yeah, sure that sure dude that gets as you as you go through the game remember that and get more mad over time
It's stupid. Yeah, it's it's it's fucking incredible. Um, no, uh, I literally
Don't know uh
What I should call a character action or not because like I said it was a thought like about maybe all style should be a
Part of it, but I I don't like someone had a nice character
Neutral lawful. Oh man, those are cracking evil evil. Uh, you know, I mean answer the question
It doesn't answer the question and I don't think there's an answer
I don't know because there's never been a definition and it's not like
Uh, uh, Kimia ever came out and what this is the what it means. Well, actually, he never he never used the term
No, it came from uh, you know, he said he said stylish hard action
Stylish action game and it was something that came from a review that people latched on to that we latched on to
I believe it was actually from like a god or two reviewer
Yeah, and it was never a it was never a hard defined term
It was but it was just certainly like a feeling that we got when it came to I'm gonna define it right now
Does your character have a launcher that enables combos?
Done that's a character action. That's kind of where I stand. That's where you stand. No, that's that's a place to
That's that's the broad and then you go bam, bam, bam, all the all the different little subdivisions. Certainly. Yeah
You can you can use that because there's there's like
Very clear similarities between
The 2d shit like dishwasher and Muramasa and devil may cry and then you know, you couldn't get into
Um, the absolute the clear similarities with like games like heavenly sword and god of war and devil may cry
I think it's almost like when someone's like, oh game is souls like it's like there's not really anything it's doing
It's just like the presentation how the health bars and the hot are and is the game hard
I think it's like harder to find like character action is where i'm like the souls like isn't really a
Genre it's just an action rpg
It's it now that there are enough games and there are some copycats
I feel like it kind of has become a genre like
I would have agreed with you right up until lords of the fallen surge code vain came out, you know
It's like I don't I consider those rip offs and not making its own genre
But everything's a rip off until it becomes a genre right so like think of all the street fighter 2 rip offs
That were street fighter 2 clones or doom rip offs. Yeah, and then those became that style of shooter
But there's been a lot less souls like games than we ever thought
I thought we were saying like two or three years ago like oh, it's gonna
Burst and there's there's been like three. I remember saying a year ago. I'm shocked
There are not more copies of that that shot does kingdom hearts have a launcher in it
Absolutely in tons of your moves launch. Okay ff 15
Not directly. No, but there's a launcher, but there's our combos. There are combos, but on grounded. You can't launch
Kingdom hearts is absolutely character action
The ff 15 is absolutely you could lobby that yeah, so
But I at some point in my head
I always thought that like the the the ranking and and style and such had a
Bearing on it, but perhaps it doesn't
I'm willing to just throw my hands up and say I literally don't know the so I never ever ever would have thought of this
Comparison or link prior to the way you phrase this conversation so far willy
But your explicit disappointments with season 2 of westworld
Will cause your experience with near to improve
Interesting over the average player. Good. Good. Good. Good. I mean it's got robots. It's got the yes, right? Yeah
But no, um stage in the desert
Yeah, oh, yeah, and I was excited I was excited for that desert stage because I wanted to see what was in that fucking desert
And if it had any bearing on the previous deserts, maybe because that's the other bit too is I didn't just start
the game, but I I months ago caught up finished that that original near lp with uh,
paddling him and I
Uh, then went through all of mr. Clems videos and then went and just stay away from those new ones
And I and I yeah, of course I went through all not all I should say all of the ones pertaining to
Um draking guards one two three and near original
Isn't it nice that it clubs is not the only one. It's just the one that like I like the best
But isn't it nice that people went through those dragon guard games and did that so that you don't have to fucking play them?
Yes, yes, it is
awful
Uh, there there's but there's a lot of interesting concepts to them and like one of the ones that i'm fucking
Hard so interested in is finding out more about a chord. So
Like we'll see where that goes. Uh, but I'm
Like there's some weird crazy shit in characters that get introduced like in the later ends of drunken guard that's fucking
It's goofy. What is this yoko taro?
Unbound unchained. Is that what that is? Like anyway, but with good gameplay yoko taro is always unbound
Uh, three dragon guard three in particular though like
really
stands out as
Tonally different
From the rest. Yeah, I looked at that game for a little while dragon guard three is a bad game also frame rate
What the fuck are you thinking? So you we'll see we'll see but um, yeah, that's amazing so far
I will you know go from there and I'll see where it's at fast as you can. I am don't stop for any reason
I am I am um
and uh
And there's gonna be a point where you're gonna kind of want to slow down go faster
Yeah, well, well, uh, I'm going I mean right now. That's going up on on my channel on the side, but like
Yes, that's going up. I will leave versus. I want to also just uh, say that the
um, the answer to how often is it going to come out
is
Like
I'm not sure yet. So I'm struggling not to just fucking. Yeah, throw me throw me another run under the bus
That's fine. It wants to come out of my mouth so bad
No, the the like but it's like twice a day
No, the the answer the answer to that is that uh, I'm going to I know I want I'm excited to play it
and
I know people are excited to watch it and I'm not going to over commit to something that I can't
Actually stick to so it's going to go up frequently enough that I'll be moving through it
But I'll decide that hopefully it'll be going faster than you caught up to get to this point because that took you about a year
Yeah, and I don't want to go. I don't want to make the mistakes of like, you know, what I've done with previous
Yeah, shit that game came out more than a year ago. Yeah, so the the only thing is is that uh,
Normally I would not point this out because like in in the way that we schedule LPs is not an issue
But there it well, I mean you're gonna have Liam with you
So he's he knows that shit backwards and forwards
But there's a lot of subtle stuff that you may not appreciate unless it's fresh
enough in your memory
like
It was oh like I saw that a couple days ago
You would remember it like subtle things like subtle character things
Whereas you might not pick it up if you you wait like, you know a week or two weeks between whatever
And I don't specifically mean between playing I mean between like the two link. Yeah got it
Yeah
No, but that that's exactly it. So um, um, you know, I don't want to promise a pace
I can't keep but I'm definitely like going through it excited to play and I know people want to see it
So I'm going to just and and you're you're finding a nice medium
And you're in just like don't talk to me about near automotive. Don't at me. Don't at me
Uh, all similarly don't at me about dag and rampa v3 because oh you're doing it
I'm on the first chapter of that and wow you've just opened yourself up to the world of don't look at the whole internet
So we'll see where that goes as well and
There's certain games you like if you want to play it's like there are certain ones you if you sleep on it
Like there are memes or the real spoiler images for the last year or two or whatever
Well, you know depending on the game the honest like the real trick is to just do like we did with
A way out a way out and just don't say shit until it's done. Why I'm sitting here going like
Why would you tell anyone you're playing the new dang and rubble?
Why wouldn't you just lie and then just say later?
Yeah, I was because I was because I was like
Um, because I do have thoughts that I wanted to
Talk about because he needs a subject to talk. Yeah. Yeah, and I do have things
I want to say so about it so far, but I just like you're right
It is a dumb thing that you probably can read anyway
You're that's did you know the world we live in once we beat God of war that we should go sleep in the bed at the house
Make sure that's where the good end go sleep in the bed at the house. Don't make sure
No spoilers. Just go sleep in the bed at the house. Yeah in the pot while you're doing the post game stuff
Exactly, exactly, right? So yeah, um, but no like uh, what I do
Like so far is that the cast is the strongest it's been
When you introduce like a bunch of new students and they're all ridiculous extremes
It feels like they've refined their roster over the course of like
Three games and an anime series. Yeah to eventually get to a point where you're like, we've called like the best
We we've the best and the brightest we've called the like the hateable qualities
And left the ones that are like
I shake my fist, but you're good. Is the anime series an adaptation or is it like more canon? Okay, okay
All right, that's interesting canon that is not covered in the games
So like it's not like persona where it's like, let's go over what you already know
Yeah, it's if you want to know the whole thing you have to watch
So what you're saying is the two games you're playing right now are both japanese games that require like
A textbook
To get out of other shit. Yeah, because there's there's novels as well. There's light novels for dang and rampa
So you're gonna really appreciate the near-automata clems videos because he goes he goes into full on review breakdowns of all
Of the plays. I imagine that it's the same thoroughness that he went into the original but it's
Yoko Taro is is the worst at that shit. It's the worst ever stage plays. I don't care. Oh man. Yeah, that's uh, why would you at the concert has spoilers?
The and that was that not wasn't that before the the
Thing actually came out before the game actually. No, no, no
No, it it came out afterwards
But remember we had Clems on the podcast and he talked to me about the spoilers from the the concert
But those were the fake leaked spoilers that yoko Taro
Invented to throw people off from the real spoilers in the concert
That are actually the true ending. Is that a good thing?
No, I'm so if you want to look mad if you looked at the which is probably a good thing the list of
Supplemental material for the near slash dragon guard universe. Yeah, there are about 10 times more short stories plays
uh, uh
Fucking uh supplemental material radio dramas, etc. Then there are games radio dramas
How many metal gear radio dramas did I miss all of them? Yeah the the uh, the other name
I heard too is valkyrie aurora as a a channel that does
Breakdowns and stuff of yoko Taro things as well. Um that uh, lia mentioned is is worth checking out too
So, uh, yeah, that's that's going but anyway, um, um, um, and yeah
Like just beyond that between I need to take a mental break between these just really heavy
Yeah, you kind of want yourself in a so tonal spot. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I know occasionally
I need my break and that break is Kirby star allies
Of course that game continues to be fucking just just name the podcast. We'll replace a Kirby game just perfect
It's so fun. It's just got the best
of fucking
Every Kirby. Oh
It's lots of free dlc
dude
If you like have a star ally that you're like, oh man, but I want it to be that guy. All right. Or like I want you can
Okay, so you can choose to either
Have the Kirby power. Yeah that you enjoy the which like for me. I fucking love
What is your favorite power? My favorite power is the uh throw. So judo the bugsy, right?
That's by far in every Kirby game that has it. That is my favorite number one with a bullet every time
And not only can you get that in this and and do a suplex Kirby as much as you want you can
If you call if you make friends with bugsy who just follows you around like the actual boss bug beetle
You could just jump on his back and control him
And sometimes they have unique movesets that are a little bit different from your normal suplex power
See my favorite Kirby power is none. My favorite Kirby power is Rick
Okay, it's like my favorite character. Okay, like he's my favorite thing. Yes, Kirby. Yes, I can't really fully even explain
Why okay my first song in an issue of nintendo power. I was like
And you saw that loop of his idle animation. Oh, yes. Yes, okay, and that was like
Yeah, that's good. I'm gonna be playing star allies tomorrow night. Totally in there alongside all the other
the buddies yeah from uh
From his game. So yeah, do you ever lament not being able to go to the Kirby cafe in Japan where if you're alone
They set up a waddle D to sit next to you. That's fucked man
That's a little that's a sad reminder a thing that we don't have
Um, but even more so is that that role of sliceable Kirby
Yeah, where you can just lay it out and it's a perfect little Kirby copy and you just cut into it like cheese or sushi
And I'm like I want one. I really want one. Maybe you can have one shipped to you
Just to slice a little Kirby off every time I need to look at it
Okay, don't at willy about the games he's talking about but if you have Kirby slices
At me hard go ahead and add him real good at me hard rick shoots fireballs at me hard with Kirby
That's that's a good subtitle. I what do you want Kirby at me hard?
That's like the the cartoon. Yeah, right back at you. Yeah, right back at you hard a good Kirby video
A good wholesome Kirby picture is like it's the same as like a little like those uh cute emergency
You ever see those there's like oh cute. Oh, yeah, like quick. You need a little quick little puppy thing
Or like it's that goat we covered his eyes with his ears and the goats like
And all that that's what it is. That's what it is, but
bookended by fucking amazing gameplay
Exactly. Yeah, that's me. Whatever
I played a bunch of games all I can blast through. Um, I talked last week about on rush
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So on rush had its open beta and that's all right. So that's what well that was on the docket
So we'll just all scratch that but like yeah open beta
Yeah, and I was like I never understand betas in the sense that like I don't keep up with them
So I'm like what's I I didn't get a code for the beta and someone will go well
It's not it's you just download the beta and I'm like, oh, okay, christ
Um, so I talked about last week. I'm like, oh, I'm really looking for that looks cool
It's like an arcade like uh racer from the developers of motor storm. Yeah, there's neat class based gameplay and like
Um, sorry to sort of say, um, it's it's just super not for me
Um, most because I'm not sure you guys can tell on the trailer. Maybe there'll be a different mode
In the full game or whatever. No, that's the ad
Oh, yeah, that's the ad. Oh, why would you do that? There's no
Like finished line in this game at least in the multiplayer. I don't know if there'll be more traditional races
I'm just going by what I played. Well, there's a bar
And it separates into both teams blue and orange
And by the end of the round whoever has the most points wins that seems so you in the and the beta
It doesn't seem like you can win a race. What's the what's the mode called? It was
Quick race. Okay. I don't know what it would be in the final game seems like the worst thing in a while
That's fine for a multiplayer mode if you want it
But it's like everything is like it's it made me feel like overwatch a little bit where
I'm not directly winning myself. I'm on the team. That's cool. But I'm like, wait, is this all the game is?
Yes, so in the start
Is there no single player which I know that the multiplayer is like it's heavy emphasis
And don't get me wrong when you're actually playing like the game looks gorgeous
Yeah, like those powers look incredible when your cars get their alt
Yeah, yeah, yeah and you use their alt and they're all different that you can do some cool things
I saw like I am a big hill and one of my teammates hit another hit a
An opposing team member into the sky like bumped them in the back and he flew into the sky
I used my my alt or my boost and I hit him again
Well, and I was like, I've never seen that in a racing game. That's cool. Looks really cool
And that was in the first like, you know, five minutes of playing so the mode was the problem
That mode in the beta was it's not a problem. I was just not into it
And I'm just like is there going to be more than this is this all the game is
Okay, and like all the stages that I did see at that point
We're all like outdoorsy stages like a forest and like some mountains and I'm like, well, I hope there's more stages
I'm sure there will be is it is it stampede mode. Is that
Kind of because that's what that's what I'm looking at the little breakdown here six v six
And you're all just hitting each other and whatever team gets the most points at the end of the time limit
That's that just seems to be that mode. Yeah, it says okay. It says there's overdrive and there's countdown
Yeah, so I I was I was also looking it up and I typed in on rush and one of the first results
Was an end gadget article from march that says on rush
You have been selected as the potential. Yes
Uh on rush is a racing game with no finish lines
So I believe they all have there is no
There is no race
To the end of the track. Okay, and and that's you know
That's that that that kind of sucks to me in the sense that the game is good
It's fun to race
But I wanted to race as well
This multiplayer mode is fine for people that want it because you're supposed to be
Working with a team and that's cool in a racing game as an additional mode
And I would play that a little bit, but I would I can't learn the track
Okay
Maybe you can't
It's work because I'm like it's it's almost sounds like um like in in uh like roller derby. There's no like finish line
There's just the group and you kind of you kind of lap people to get points, you know
Like like there's ways to do that, but I imagine there will be a more traditional mode
When the game fully releases the game is being pitched as not having a race at all
And the game comes out and like that's what the article I was just looking at
I see plus it comes out fully in like two or three weeks. It comes out in june
Gotcha. Okay. Now. I don't want to be some kind of stodgy genre traditionalist. No, not you but
I don't know maybe a racing game should
Have a race
Yeah, but yeah, I mean sometimes people you know, you want to try something new and if it's fun enough
Then you can bank on it if if there's a DLC mode planned like I'll play that
Did you just say try something different and then
And I looked at you
And it took a second. Yeah
So like I'm still gonna look at this when it comes out and hopefully there'll be like a DLC mode
That's just a traditional race just so I can get used to all the mechanics and whatever
But because it's just throwing you into a team-based thing where there's people hitting you every single second
Five guys like uh in their cars or bikes
And that's the other cool thing is like they have all these you have like motorcycles you have big humvees
You have buggies you have like yeah cars. There's a lot of shit going on and I like that stuff
I'm just like it's all contained in this one type of singular mode or at least two of them. But
Yeah, I was I was a little disappointed. I talked to max about it. He streamed it for a couple hours
He's like, yeah, he's like it's not for me. It's not what I wanted
But I mean it looks nice. I'm like, yeah
And it sucks because I know a fan that listens to the podcast works on this
And like I said, I'm not even saying the game is bad. It's just the the the way it's set up is just not what I was feel good
Yes, cool. Uh, it also felt really good again
Is Hyrule warriors. Yeah, it sure does on the switch. Everyone's back on that
I'm super back on that because I'm like looking at I'm like this looks better back on their bullshit
Way more fucking troops on screen
I thought it does well of characters unlocked at the start. It doesn't die when you hit them
It it I I got super back into that for like an entire day where I was just like, okay, no
I'll try one more mission. I'll try one more mission
One merian
They're not one merian troops and
Uh, Liam was able to point me. It's like if you want adult minna, you just go to adventure mode. She's right there
We'll take you a little while, but that's where you gather and in the original Wii U version was way way harder to get her
Yeah, they they've basically taken all the stuff that ever came out with all the other versions and they've integrated them so that they
Know they're they don't feel like their dlc anymore. They just feel like they're
Part of the I didn't know that a volt god volcanis with a volt volcano dragon knight vulvega vulvega and sia were just
Added to the game free at some point in Wii U
Like there weren't dlc
They're just patched in at some point and people were like, well, they didn't tell us about this
They're just there and I didn't know. Yeah, it's it's it's fucking great. What?
Uh, what kind of moves is is adult mid-norocan? I know I don't remember ever seen a trailer for her
I don't know sex moves. Okay. She glows. Yeah her glow once she spin
And there there's a fairy that you can be that does the reverse of what link does
That has this crazy hard to get weapon that you need to play a hundred hours in that's all I'll say
The reverse of what link does it does it when when when when fairies are involved it does a twirl attack
Someone else is inside the fairy bottle not a fairy. Oh
Or something
I don't know. Are you are you telling me about this spoilers? I don't know
It's a weapon. Oh, okay. I don't know. I don't know if it's a pig or not
I'm like linkle not Lincoln Lincoln's great wrinkles really good wrinkles wrinkle wrinkle
Lincoln's very good
I bought the 3ds version as well
And I put some time into that because I was like, I want to play as Lincoln and the other two characters
And I didn't get she's one of my favorite characters. She's so good
Um, I also played battle chasers on the switch. I've been waiting for this version for a while night
War
Battle chasers night war. Yes. Yes. Okay. That was weird. That was because like my brain always says night cry
Yeah, okay fair enough. That's very different. I know which is why I have to correct it every time
I played just a little bit. But one thing I did kind of notice in the handheld mode
You can barely read the text. Oh, no
The text is exactly the same size it would be in any other version
Uh-oh, but that doesn't scale the same way it doesn't so I do wish it was a bit bigger
But I'm like
Because I do want to play it on the go if I'm like on a plane or whatever and I'm like, okay
Well, I can read it. It's fine. But I'm like you gotta I for me at least I got a squint just a little bit
But uh, that seemed really good
I played a bit of omen sight
Which is something we're planning to do later this week. That game is really good in a sense that I
When I go on steam and I see you with the sequel to stories
Yeah, when I see um
On steam and I'm like, oh this thumbnail and it says action. I'll click on this new game and I'm like, oh it has
survival and tower defense
That looks cool. And oh
I just kind of want an action game
so
when I when I actually saw what omen sight is I'm like, oh, it's like
A ps2 ish era like more fantasy based sly cooper
And but building off of character action building off of what they did in stories. Yeah, which is like really which is solid combat
And the voice acting is cool
And you have like a time rewind mechanic to live the the last couple of days of major characters
And you see what brought them to that point and you try to
Like piece together. It's a murder mystery all in one as well
And I'm like this game is really neat. Yeah, it's well
It's taking the like multi-ending thread thing from stories, but it's going in a different direction with it
We're like exactly you jump into different characters and find out stuff
Um, and I told you about this on netflix. There's a netflix original movie. It's john woo
And it's a hard boiled
action movie
about
Like a
A chinese lawyer and he's framed for something to commit and lots of people take
Multiple guns that's correct shoot each other and this was not advertised at all on netflix for when like it was
Stuck in the like the foreign section. Yeah, whatever and I'm like this should be a bigger deal
Like I know john who hasn't been a big deal in a while, but they wouldn't push something with subtitles in it
Does it have subtitles?
Because after you guys, uh, uh left the other night I was like, oh, I'm gonna watch I'm gonna watch it
Randomly without any explanation. Just we're talking english
To japanese people japanese people talking english to chinese people. Is it teckening? Yeah, it's an english movie
No, no, it's teckening
they
Every japanese and and chinese person in this movie all know english and will flow from all three languages
Okay, they're speaking in their language to each other and everyone understands place in japan
Okay, or some in china. So I didn't get far in the movie. The movie stopped it. Okay
The movie switching languages with no explanation. I wonder why netflix didn't advertise and there's no subtitle track for there
Is a subtitle track. What happened?
I don't know. I don't want to read words
What your obfuscation is confusing me. I had I had like general subtitles on like clicked on netflix
So it just gave me english for everything. Yeah, even when english is happening
But do I I didn't try taking the generalized subtitles off of the netflix settings to see what do they do
Do they do nothing man? That's what I want. I don't know so i'm watching this movie
I'm like this is really
Not great. Hmm. It like it's it looks so hd and it looks cheap and like oh the soap opera thing
Yeah, and and a lot of the stylistic like uh cinematography choices
I'm like it shows people's multiple eyes flashing on the things and a guy's all confused
And he's walking down the street the guy that's been accused of murder and he's just like uh, and I'm like, what is this?
This is getting really strange little budget
I mean
Budget for an action movie
I guess and the trailer had a lot of gun had a lot of gun fights. I'm like that looks cool
I guess but i'm like I really don't understand what's going on. It's hard to keep up
But maybe we need to give it another go. Uh, so what's the last one? It's called manhunt by the way
What's the last wool movie? Um red cliff. I saw red star biography
And before that paycheck, I can't believe you actually took a second. Have they
Because i'm like I haven't heard him of him in a while red cliff is the last
Like movie that he made that I knew that I knew and was it still moving it up
Uh, well, it was a dynasty warriors. It was like a warring
It was like the okay warring states warring states
Because I
My train of thought here is like did it did it was it good?
It seemed good. I watched it the one time. It was very very long. It's four hours long the cut that I saw
I remember the movie you're talking about now. Yeah, yeah, it was very gray
No, it's very colorful
But it was but it was like called red cliff
I remember seeing a trailer for a warring states like movie
There's a million of them. That was like really high budget and like had like big cg fights
Big cg armies fighting each other. Did it have that? Yeah, kind of
Anyway, anyway, uh, the last kind of thing is like, you know when we make the joke of like, oh parks and rec face
And then we'll set it up. Yeah. Have you ever actually done it when you didn't know you're doing it because you've heard some
I'm sure I'm sure so that happened to me yesterday where I was at a um a family thing
And there is like someone that wasn't related to us, but they're there they're 10 gently related or whatever
and
a senior member of the family like the like the grandfather just goes
and
His his his daughter is married to a man and then there's a there's a there's a granddaughter
And someone's a blah blah blah blah blah and there's a bunch of conversations going all over and it just kind of quits down for one second
Amelia and are just sitting on it on a couch like just talking then we just hear like
Oh, well, that's good enough because you know, you know for me. I'm supporting two families, aren't I?
In front of his son-in-law
And I turn to lianna and she turns to me and we just go like
And then the conversations just keep rolling and no one says anything it didn't get awkward, but we heard it and we're like
Oh
Wow, that's an aggressive move. Oh, man. So we're getting to the car later and we're about to drive home
We was like, yo that fucking dunk though. Oh my god. I was like that was actually it
Why don't those always happen in that weird moment during large family or everyone suddenly gets quiet
For a one or two second period just all conversation stops and that's the only moment that those statements get uttered
Yeah, no, it wasn't as awkward as I made it sound because the the conversation just
It just died down for a second and then something picked up just as he finished saying that
So I think no, that's a raw super
As far as family gatherings go you got hit though. Yeah. Yeah, you ate it
You ate it if you didn't come back right away or like play it into a punchline of some kind
Yeah, you just ate it. So it was brutal
Yeah, that was man

What'd you do pat? I have a question. Mm-hmm. What the hell's memorial day?
Memorial day is the day where I went to the mall today to get a meal before this podcast and it was closed
That's the day. No, that's victoria day slash st. John baptist. Yeah, so we have the week
We have victoria day here in canada. I don't like the mall was closed today. Okay, okay
That's how you denote holidays. Yeah
Yeah, memorial day is is is what you call it. Is it a war thing? Yeah. Yeah, it's those who
Okay, it's like remembrance day. Remember it's day for those who served in the states basically
Americans we have that but in november
Yeah, with the poppy's today today's today's victoria day for canadians. Okay, and and st. John baptist day slash faint national for
various stripes of french canadians
Depending. So if you go up to if you go up to a bell pervace, it's probably gonna go uh, fermi echoes the
St. John baptist or fermi echoes the faint national
It's for nothing, you know what I found out apparently in ontario, they have something called family day
And I'm like, I don't know what that like that's a weird initiative
That's a weird initiative that got pushed everywhere in canada
Golden week for ontario
I don't know it's weird in parts of canada family day is a statutory holiday occurring on a monday in february
In parts of alberta manitoba ontario new prismic. I wish we had that literally every other province except us has this family day thing
And it's super weird. It's not weird if I didn't have to go to school. Willy. We don't have it
Matt, you haven't been in school for like 20 years. I'm talking about when I was
We
Get over it. You haven't been you haven't had to go to school for decades. I'd be so much happier if we had that day
Are you wait? Are you
When in the winter when it snows real hard? Do you still get excited for a snow day for the school?
No, I get jealous
Okay, there it is. All right, okay, but here's but here's the thing though
It's a super new thing that most provinces started observing in like the mid aughts
Okay, well, then that doesn't count. Yeah in the mid aught somebody said we need
2006 2007 no, I could have missed it. I could have missed a day
No, you're paying to go to college. That's different
You want to go to the class?
Not the ones I had at that time. None of us ever fucking went to class. We just wasted our time playing video games
We don't get we don't get our mlk days up here. We don't get our
Our um, like, you know, like there's jewish holidays that just come like almost almost once a month
There's all these crazy cool jewish holidays like sucote and stuff for you never heard of that one
There's a lot of them. That's the one where you think you you have to sleep in the tent outside
That seems cool, but it's like you get all these days off and it's like if you can maximize that time
No, totally don't you can maximize as much time off school and work as you want if you can like
Just work in the religious angles and the cultural angles
Work it work it right one foot on the canadian border one foot on the american
Just celebrate as many holidays as you can in five states and not go to school
What is okay? I think that's what elie did. Can you combo?
Can you be like a person in the right country with the right cultural backgrounds with the right religion?
That lets you get a long period of time off and what's the optimal?
I think you can do it. The opte
Like can you get like a month and a half off if you just happen to be like
The right thing I think a month and a half is real ambitious. That's I'd say maybe a week
Because but there's weeks already right so it would have to be more than a week like in general
Like you you'd have to take you'd have to from march break
That's something you'd have to take your spring break and combine it with like
Something else that lasts two days
And a long weekend
When you're at like a work job and you get you have the sick days then it's easy
You can just like attach it to uh, yeah, no wait. No, you don't get spring break off if you work
What the fuck? That'd be awesome. Everyone's on spring break. Can you everyone adds yet spring break?
And what spring break means break your back during crunch buckers
like like if if
One parent is like celebrating kwanzaa. Yeah, but
Had well, okay. No, here's the solution
Here's the solution. I just thought of it up. Okay, make your own holiday
Festivus that make make a hundred and eighty nine festivus days
But you can't get recognition for those if you try really hard you might be able to know
It's that's too much work. Well, it's easier to just say I celebrate festivus
And I also celebrate hanukkah and I also celebrate Christmas fucking to the railians get days off
They don't do they go to school?
No, they go to new york. Uh, really? Yeah, they had a new york. Yeah. Yeah, there was a whole um, um
a free the nipple like
Campaign that was going on and like everyone was like doing the whole like like supporting the cause and then it turned out that like
Rallions were the ones organizing the whole thing
And then at the end of the march all led up to a podium were the fucking railians
The aka the alien cult from cobec. By the way, yeah, we should vet the railians is the kebeks
Super alien sex cult that believes we need to make an embassy for the aliens to come down and take us to the new plane of existence
They were the ones behind it. And so everyone that was marching
for free the nipple
Just ended up at a speech
Where they're like so
Yeah, nipples great, but also
Aliens though and everyone was like
whoa
What?
Yeah, yeah, it was I'm excited to go on the internet after this and talk to people who listen to the podcast who did not know that
We had a a local creepy alien sex cult like the longest con
It's the funniest shit ever where it just the end of this march, you know
At some point gets to a cult speech at some point you have to respect. Oh, absolutely. It's a great PR move
It's fantastic. The hustle is real. It's a respectable hustle
So what was this about memorial day? Oh, yeah, I didn't know what a memorial day was. Okay. Yeah. Uh, so what I do with my week
Okay, there's two
alien
Uh, yeah, hi matt. You're super right. Hi roars is the the shit it's it's so fucking good
I'd love it and runs really well. Yeah, I know that when I read reviews for it
It makes me question as always like people's eyesight
Because when you read like five reviews like it's amazing. It runs at a locked 60 fps. I'm like, yeah, it's not a lot
You motherfuckers are blind
shit
Because this like but it's the difference I defeated it of a style like a like a just a commander
And like the frame rate dipped like to like
Sub 20 for like two seconds. Yeah, so the the well, did you play a lot of high roars in the Wii U?
Uh, yeah, I beat it on
The original I beat the original version, but I didn't touch the dlc much. So
Uh, like that game ran at 30 and then would drop to
This runs at 60 and drops to like
30
So hey, look it's like a play uh the game matt answer me this does the game seem way faster to you now that the frame rate is higher
Yeah, yeah, there seems to be a lot of animations that because they chugged up the frame rate
We're never able to actually play at their regular speed
The one that makes me think of the most is impas uh slash
Where she slashes the ground and the water spurts out. Yeah, that seems sped up like three times
Because the Wii U seemed to always play that at like
22 frames a second
But now it almost always plays at 60 and I think that it just speeds up as a result that game's awesome
That game's the shit
I
Uh, it's still no gross
No gross
One of the biggest oversize if it does it if it doesn't happen now. It's never happened. No, they're not going to add any deals
That's what I mean. That's what I'm saying. If it didn't if it didn't happen with this release and it also
I have a friend of mine who's a total fiend. He spent like 400 hours on the Wii U version kind of thing
And I was talking to him. It's like so what's up with these adventure maps, right?
Because you remember the first the first release came with two
Yeah, and then they added a season pass worth like three or four, right?
And then they added the the the fucking
3ds version which had more and then the 3ds version got a season pass and had more so now there's like
50 or whatever
Those are all way way way longer than the story mode each
Yeah, no, they're there
That's the main and there's a bunch of characters and weapons like half the game is only in that
Yeah, no liam was going on about just how full that mode is compared to the story and and like
A bunch of them have separate gimmicks. So they're all themed based on like different legends of zelda games, right?
So the majority's massive measure map
Every number of there's a certain number of terms where at all progress on the map will reset
The only difference is is that if you can get to the corners of the map or the cardinal points
There are all statues there that you could teleport to immediately
Because every number of turns the moon hits the fucking map and it reverses
So it plays just like majora's mask
There's the low rule map, which is I think the last map because it's the toughest
There are two maps in it and you swap between them at at like teleport points just like you didn't like between worlds
Okay, like it's it's there's that's cool. That's cool much
um
In terms of another any
No, okay, not even close. No, not even close
All right, because especially with the stuff that matt's talking about we're like, hey, here's two characters that
Here the game starts you off with like 12 characters unlocked. Hmm
It's it's like fun. Then maybe I like then perhaps like what would be second place
probably dragon quest
Wait, are you talking warriors game specifically? Yeah, okay
So
No, like, okay, there's a bunch that we have in play
I know people have said like the one piece ones certain ones of those are really good
I I don't know. I really hated berserk
not because it was not because it was like
Bad bad because it was berserk and like my expectations are just like I don't know. I liked warriors
Fire emblem warriors enough. I know some people don't like it as much but like
It's the the the hour or so I play that I'm like, I need to I know I want to play this more and I never got around to it
I'm sure there's there's one samurai warriors or dynasty warriors game that people hold up as like this is the really good one
but
It's general consensus seems to be the hyrule warriors is the absolute shit. What about um
The tecmo one one that was that we played. I didn't see anybody talking about that at all one with Ryu Hayabusa. Yeah
Yeah
The one thing that you forgot to mention, which is something that they added in the 3ds version, but now it's here
And woolly since you played the original version, you'll appreciate this
Remember on those mats where you picked link and you're playing as link and impa and lana and zelda are all on the map
Yeah, and you're like boy. I wish I could just hit a button and switch to them at any time. Yeah
Yeah, I guess why
That's good
So in the later episodes of the story
You can't do that because they're very focused on link
But in the adventure mode when you go into a map with two or three playable characters
You can just switch between all of them at any time and it helps because you can point them at certain keeps
And go hey lana go over to the southeast or whatever and she'll do shit all like they're goddamn awful at fighting the enemies
But when you want to when you want to take it over just switch to her and take the key like it's a big deal
I um
I've made peace in in my heart with the idea that like muso games
For them to be what they are
They require somebody else to
No, no, no, no, they require that thing where like I said every time I see a bunch a crowd runs up to you and they just stand there
I kind of go like
but
Like this is a ridiculous amount of just flair and style and fun and like
Like even like you're not really thinking about what you're beating up on you're just beating up on things that are not doing anything
But whatever you're doing combos, right? And and like whatever do combo. Yeah, and and um
Do the xxx and the yyy and it's just and I know it's just a genre thing
I guess but like I just wonder I'm like what would the difficulty be like if not if they
Had more like health or if they did more damage, but just if they all attacked
I imagine it would be totally unmanageable and impossible
They would have to then buff the characters have some sort of defense for all that if it's coming at all angle
Well, think about think about devil may cry for
Uh on pc and the modes where it was like what can your computer do? Okay? Yeah, I played that mode. It's fucked
It's crazy, right? It's super crazy. I want to see what that would look like in a game where your move set was meant to handle crowds
Yeah, well
Like there there are tiers in this game and the tier is is how wide are your attacks?
That's absolutely it. How many people can you suck at?
Hey, guess what links super good because every single y attack he does is a spin
Because I I just think that um like every time a new character shows up in these types of games
Like it's awesome
And like but like there's a diminishing return on like how much fun I would have yeah based on the thing that you do
Uh, I think I think the primary that I summed it up talking to somebody else over the weekend was that the game's not all that deep
But it's it's not a very deep pool, but it's the widest shallow pool you've ever seen right infinite ocean
Yeah, infinite infinite ankle deep. It's the biggest kiddie pool ever
That was used already. It's a fruit or something. I forgot we use that at some point, but just like yes an ocean that is ankle deep
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh, I'm barely gonna go into it in terms of gameplay details because I'll I'll I've done that on stream or whatever
But I I'm back in on 14. I left for six months seven months
And then well, you might have had this happen to you in a fighting game. There is a similar feel here
Where for whatever reason you kind of get tired of a of a fighter, right?
Just it's not drawing you anymore or it's a little stale
And then an update comes out and you're like no and then an update comes out. You're like no, that's good
That's a good feature, but yeah, you know, it's just not grabbing you
And then the somebody says hey, did you hear they buffed your character?
And you go
Let me let me take a look at that
Yeah, that hasn't that hasn't happened to me in any way thing
I could think of but I've watched that happen to friends. Okay, and you're like
Oh, so soul survivor now, uh, yeah after 15 seconds it gives you 20% of your life back
I like like like I've watched I like there's there's a career zangief player in Montreal that will like
Be working his normal job. Yeah, and the moment it's not when zangiefs in the game. It's when zangief is good
And when zangief is good, he just shows up like yo, what's up guys?
What up love love love love love tap tap sits down and just plays
situation where
A storm blood came out last year and I played 4.0 and I played 4.1 and I play a dark night because that's my favorite class
And they're really bad
They're just they're really bad and it's a class that in its entire existence over three years has never received one buff
ever
only only not slightly modifications and everybody else and I'm like just
And there are a lot of other reasons, but I'm just uh
And then this patch is the patch they go
Hey, you guys want
9 or 10 buffs that are all things that you wanted like okay, so maybe I wasn't that tired of it
Maybe I wasn't right, right?
And hey game's still great. It's just maybe when you burn out you should take breaks
The one thing that I do want to nice when you have knowledge of a thing that makes you like
All right decent at best and then without doing anything that same knowledge makes you
Way stronger. Oh, yeah when the world just moves around you with no effort
It's like hey look this this cool down that I used when it's whatever is now twice as strong
So hey great, right the other thing is they added some overwatch. It happens all the time. Oh, yeah, absolutely
They added something. Um, it's a long and short story, but the the game always has a really grindy thing to get a super weapon
And it used to be just run dungeons all day for months and it was very boring made you want to die
There's a phrase called arf till you barf because there was a fucking
Dungeon that you would run that was the most efficient one you could run called a therochemical research facility
And it's like so arf. Yeah, it's like what do you want to do?
Do you want to run it 20 times a day to get this done in a week?
Fine kill yourself do that shit and fucking get miserable
They finally added a thing. Oh, it's a big open zone and it's weird because they made like a miniature final fantasy 11
It works completely different from the whole rest of the game. You your level resets every that all the mechanics are different
But the most interesting thing is that when you die you lose experience and you can d level that's
Just like back in the good old days with ff 11. That's a lot of fun
And this has resulted people love that. Are you guys familiar with the terms baron's chat?
No
All right, so let's for the viewers at home. So baron's is a location in world of warcraft
It's a big desert on the western side of the map that all the horde players had to go live in from level 10 to 30
And the reason why baron's chat is a thing is because it's the largest zone in the game
It's more or less pointless and nearly the entire half of the server is dumped there and this is back in 2004. Wow
so baron's chat becomes
Just a much faster
dumbass 4chan just
Just the stupidest nothing to do but talk there's nothing because you're running for 10 minutes
So there's nothing. Yeah, exactly. There's nothing to do with talk
So when you have a really fucking stupid shithole chat area
Just nothing but idiots right in shout chat just screaming dumbass crap
That's baron's chat. Okay. Well because of the grindy nature of this thing
Because of the long distances that you run because mounts are all disabled because of the requirement to party up and because of the
ability to die and lose experience
It has recreated
A new baron's chat and compared to the rest of the game where everything is pretty nice and normal
And what you would expect of a modern mmo. This is like traveling fucking back in time 10 years
To just back when mmo chat was the most toxic dumbass shithole imaginable and it's great
It's the best. It's so stupid. It's so awful
I don't know if you guys saw but late last night the first time I walked in
I had dudes whisper. I had some asshole whispering everyone on the server to leave
Asking like hey, can you guys please leave because the boss's health scales up with the amount of people in here
And we're very we're dedicated high level players
So if you just if you could just leave the instance for about 10 minutes so that we could be that'd be really appreciated
Just the that sounds the worst that sounds like fun it is
It is so much fun because it's awful
And it it takes a certain personality
To enjoy that because I have friends that have been playing eureka and they hate it
They absolutely can't stand that stupid shit, but I I just want to roll around in its awfulness
It's so bad
Did you leave?
I stayed on for about half an hour longer than I planned. There you go
Yeah, that's and I if you want to go look I put it up onto and I made sure to
It's like is this motherfucker actually just asking people in whisper so that he doesn't have to be the asshole in shout chat asking
Hey work to shit to beat the boss. Can everyone just please leave? Yeah, that's that that's her like I was I was going to bed
But I was I was about to yeah, yeah, but now yeah, yeah, you're right right now. I'm fucking back off
It's it's it's something and so yeah f of 14 is great. I'm back into that. I'm I'm gonna be streaming it tomorrow afternoon
Of as much as I can and then you guys should check out Matt's stream at eight, right? You're doing Kirby Kirby
Good game
And the other thing that I did was I started watching something and I don't know if I like it or not because I don't get it
But I still laugh
And it's um, I finally caved and started watching this show called aqua teen hunger force
And I don't get it order. Yeah. Oh, wow. Okay. There's a lot of it
There is
And I don't get it. Yeah, I just don't get it very specific
Pat but I but I yeah, but I still laugh
Every now and then like once or twice or episode I get a hearty chuckle. Um, and I don't know why so I'm
Right there with you because
As someone who we don't have adults from up here, so I can't casually catch it. I mean we do but we don't
Yeah, so
When we know but we actually don't back then we didn't when it when opportunities like we have it now
Yeah, we have anyone can get it. We just don't yeah, but our televisions
We just don't but if you were poor, but if you didn't have cable you wouldn't have it. No, yes, you can it's easily
Don't you have to order it specially? Yeah, but you still get it
But I mean in america in america it wasn't on tv. Yeah. Yeah us. No you have to have you have to have your specialist
I didn't do any of that shit. I found it. But but but well
Yeah, but what I but what I mean is that like the point is that like I've only I've only count it like when
Like away, you know like in the states or whatever and there's always some weird
Probably hilarious or just fucked up shit that happens
So this this was this was surfaced by a bunch of friends of mine in discord
Just they got on the kick where you know, you're just hey remember that bit remember that that arise chicken bit. I don't know
And posting clips and I would look at the clips and I go ha ha. That's funny. I don't understand. Yeah, and yeah
I started to watch it from the beginning
This was the stupid thought the stupid thought was well if I start to watch it from the beginning
I will have the context and it'll make it funnier right the first words. You're familiar with the characters. There's the the food
And then there's carl. Yes
The first words out of carl's mouth are yeah, whatever food monster out of my way
So okay, so there's nothing there's absolutely nothing. I don't know. It's they're just weird magic food monsters
It's 90 95 percent. I don't get it and five percent. Oh fuck, right?
And I'm thinking of there's an episode I saw where I just it was in the middle of it
It was just because again, perfect hotel tv. Yeah turned on and and uh the fries
Uh frylock frylock
Was wearing the flesh of some guy and pretending to be this woman's husband
And she wanted nothing to do with him
And she was like super horribly grossed out
But she was he was like just I can wear his flesh and be him though and then you'll like me
And so and he's they fitted his flesh over his fry body
And it was fucking horrifying
And we weren't better on meatball the the moment me the moment that got me in and the moment the clip that somebody sent me that got me in was uh
A fucking oh god. Well, it was from the aqua teen hunger force movie
For my friend jim sends to me and it's it's the lobby song, you know like let's all go lobby
Yeah, but then it gets replaced with the weird death metal version which includes the line
Um
Don't bring your baby to the theater
Leave it outside in the street run it over after the show
Just played dead and then uh
Carl gets impregnated by the mermaid and explodes into eggs
And then everyone in the show starts to explode into eggs. There you go. And then shake goes. Oh, yeah, I had so much sex with her
I call it's weird how i'm not exploding into eggs right now
Any minute and then it's the end of the episode and I laugh, but I don't understand it makes me like
Yeah, page has this thing where I watch uh eric andre and she watches an episode and then I start to watch the second episode and she's like
Okay, I gotta leave the room because it makes me anxious right right eric andre makes her anxious
I'm the same way when i'm watching aqua teen where the fact that I can't follow the sequence of events at all
Makes me get super like it makes me upset and i'm laughing because i'm upset and I don't know if I like the show
But i'm gonna keep watching it
I I don't that's about right. I feel like a lot of the world
Our world specifically the internet world that we live in is going to make a little bit more sense after I watch a bunch of this
Shit, but I don't think you're meant to watch a bunch of it
I think you're meant to catch it randomly while you're living your life that's it's intended like that that's how it should be
Digested yes, you know is what you're just you had a whatever fuck day and then 15 minutes of this comes on and you go
All right, all right, and then you continue living until it happens again
It's just it's it's just it makes me
It makes me very bothered to put it on dvd is beyond anyone and probably the thing that I somehow missed
The whole time ever that i'm shocked when I watch it
Is how hip-hop the show is?
Yeah, sure. The intro seems the intro song. Yeah, but did you
Did you all also realize that between almost every scene transition there's like a hype man going oh man
I can't believe it meat. Why what are you doing?
Every every time like what I don't
Shake's a cunt by the way fuck shake
Freloks the cool is that's I'm putting it down now. Carl's the best whatever
But yeah, I'm gonna keep going on that and I don't know how to update people on that because there's at that
There's no what how do you this yeah this show i'm in this arc. Okay, here's this show despises the word continuity
Okay, I here's my suggestion. I think you should hit a playlist
Yeah, and let it play mute it at all times and mute it and then when you feel like it open that window up
And unmute it for a while and then remute it and minimize
I gotta know it all
I mean fuck. I think they've died in half the episodes that I've watched
It's like Kenny to the extreme right makes it makes it not a gimmick. It makes it woven into the carl carl
Alrighty, yeah, I don't know
No, um, oh also, um, um, um, are you caught up on megalobox?
Yeah, okay. Are you cut up a megalobox? I think i'm at i'm at five whatever you got to the bit where the
Or the whole series changes into a different series and it becomes my favorite thing in the world. Yeah, see there is
Because that's that's that's what everyone oh
Oh, look, it's my favorite thing in the world. That's cool. Oh, yeah
That's nice. Yes. I like when my favorite thing in the world sneaks up on me
Uh, there there is the last episode is a hell of a cliffhanger and I genuinely think it's gonna become a different series again
Cool. Uh, it's very very interesting. Cool. Unfortunately. Someone excited spoiled a bit of that a bit a bit of uh
Going have you seen where this is going hashtag and then big?
Now I did. Thank you. I don't know if it's called. I don't know if it's big spoilers because it's episode three
Well that that happens in but it but it what I didn't
It was so far outside the realm of what I thought was gonna happen
Well, it's that that happened that I saw that I was like I know exactly what that is if you have not watched megalobox
What we're describing is the way that the show was pitched and advertised is very different
The way you're actually then what is actually going to be occurring though it is a boxing anime through and through
It is my favorite thing in the world
Surprised it doesn't turn into a slice of life midway through. Yeah. Yeah, that's good stuff
It becomes a very different boxing anime than you expected. Oh, yeah, it's good. Did you catch up on hero?
No, hey, guess what?
That's uh, that's ask a retrieval arc is real good this time. Nope
dope dope dope
What we do have is some news
Oh
This goes on for like one more bar than it needs to it's important. Yeah, maybe
You should also make sure to like gradient it down to nothing
Because that's like new shows you like classic new shows used to yeah, but since this is my voice. Do you want it to go?
No, you just be quieter. I don't know how to do that. I know
Well new things there's a couple of new things going on about the new things one of the new things is a mysterious
uh
Mysterious project, but what could it be from the people that made wild arms reloaded
So tango project atari's name is thrown around somewhere
Uh, there's nothing to really go on here, but natsume and tango project are the people behind the power rangers
one-on-one fighter ninja warriors
Ninja warriors was good shit ninja warriors again and wild guns reloaded wild guns reloaded and uh, they got something called
Yeah, the tango project. Yeah, so on their website on their website. It just has like new project coming up
and
I just hope it's a ninja warriors revival because ninja warriors again again. Yeah ninja warriors. Oh really?
Again, that's it. That's the announcer right there. This blue thing
So everyone's looking at that fun and going well, that's kind of futuristic, right?
It could be ninja warriors ninja. Why is it on cyborg ninjas?
Why is it on an inverted mega mega drive background?
Um, well, yeah, I don't think there's much to read into that though. Maybe but but if it's I I just want ninja warriors
Just because they did such a good job with um
Wild guns reloaded. I agree. Look at these guys. What are you?
Ninja ninja and like kama kuni. Uh, come on. Come I touch it. Come I touch it. Come I touch it. Yeah
I designed
the kunoichi before kunoichi
Yeah, that exact type of ninja character down to the blonde phony
It's a generic ninja with a blonde ponytail and a little cool hair flick
But I had that as one of my fucking they stole your idea. That was a trapper keeper character really original
It sure was did you though because she appeared in the arcade original?
You can see that which I didn't know about because I only knew about
Ninja war she she was the character of ninja warriors the original widescreen arcade game
But I only knew ninja warriors again on the super nintendo. Don't worry. Well, they leapt forward in time to rip you off in the past
It's so good that they dropped again because they knew how dumb ass that is but I like saying it. I know
But ninja warriors. It's like can't you say two?
Or like new generation
Again another ninja warriors. Yeah. Yeah, I hope it's ninja warriors
Ninja warriors dash wouldn't mind something all new
They're made in sprites because they're updated new sprites and and while guns looked incredible
So couldn't believe they just redrew bosses. Would you want it if it was also fucking impossible?
Like ninja warriors is back and it's harder than ever you'll never get past this version
They added like an easy mode for it because yeah, while guns reloaded is harder than the super nintendo version
Yeah, balanced for four players, but balanced not balanced for one balanced for fuck you
Um, yeah, that's cool. They're natsume atari. Natsume atari. Why who how?
Businesses is weird, man. Is it infrograms again infrograms again. No
Oh
No
It says pachinko get out of here bro. Doesn't atari mean something isn't it? It is it is a word. Yes. Yes, and it's also a
It's it's really I know I know it in relation to go the board game, but I don't know what it actually means
Yeah, it's a it's a position and go
Um, you learn something over there
Goes the best
Infrograms again
Infogrames the second
Or imagine just a company where they they like they straight up called themselves like infogrames returns like like they read
Implying implying the finally. Yeah. Oh man. I'm back
It's me infrograms back at my weird armadillo infrograms. Don't call it a comeback
Um speaking of comebacks
Okay, well first of all did you see
I love the new
I love the new uh trend of tweets because there's only been two so far that i've seen but they're both been great of
People standing in an area where there's a lot of echo. Yeah going
Halo
During the halo theme and then you get you get like this one or like, um
the recent tweet was uh
Girls think guys go to the bathroom to jack off when really here's what they're doing
And it's a bunch of girls sneaking up to a bathroom and they peek the door open and you just hear a chorus of guys going
It's great. Anyway, halo
David busters. Oh, he's doing it. He did it. I knew it was coming
Um now halo has really made it halo fire team raven arcade experience reveal
Dave and busters exclusive. Um, so world premiere
Uh, I you know, I put out a cruising retrospective video where I'm like, yeah raw thrills that the people that dominate north american arcades
The only ones like no, they don't he talking about. I'm like, that's what i'm talking about. They're fucking making a halo arcade game
Yeah, and this is also really similar to the tomb raider game that I played
It's four players and I think the developer that made that tomb raider game fridos is even helping out on this thing
I feel like raw thrills just realize that like this fucking this is like
prime
Real estate for the taking is the arcade genre at this point
There's fucking teenagers and young adults all the time that just want to shoot some shit
And do they want to shoot halo crap on 130? Yeah, bro. I love halo
And they have and they're making they're making dumb toy guns that are always the same in their different games
But they're great because they're themed to the thing you want
And then you see they shove them in theaters and david busters and all these places where you can still play arcade games
Hey, man, before I see Deadpool you want to see you want blow up a halo?
Yeah, you want to you? Hey, I'm mad. Would you madly john?
Would you take a job working for raw thrills?
Yes, it's the only people left doing this type of that's just because you get a business card that says, yeah
Raw thrills. I really want to try that new t.m. And t beat him up. That's what just put out
It's only had david busters. I think what's a david buster. It's uh, chucky cheese
But bad bad alcohol and not for kids. Okay. Well, that's better
Well kids can go there, but they can't drink the alcohol. I like how I like how I reference the thing
We also don't have to explain the thing that we don't have
Yeah, yeah, but that one's a bit the chucky cheese is more
It has more cachet in the mind share
But it's like that's where new games are coming out. This is a fucking new rampage game
Hey, uh, yeah, just a quick question. Is there any uh, is there any smash brothers news this week?
Well, you mentioned mind share and I mean I might as well we might as well talk discuss that um
the
Like there's a port of resident evil coming to the mind share
I don't get this this japan only by the way, but I don't understand what this is
Resident evil 7 is coming to the switch via the cloud the infinite power of the cloud
cloud version
Of re7 requires an internet connection because you're streaming the game
It also costs 20 something dollars to buy a 180
180 day rental
So on those
Like on live type streaming services
Or you're or you're like your playstation stream connection and whatnot and things like that
Like this is one being offered not as a
The streaming service, but specific for a game. It's so weird specific to a console
It's so weird and it's a why would I want to region by the way? Yes. Why would I want to play the
Worst possible version of a game that's already like more than a year old. So the things that streaming
Games is a is a business model that I think has not really taken off
But it's still going to be around internet need to go faster and what they want to do
Is I guess try out offering games
Individually because the whole ordering of the service thing didn't really pick up
No, this feels like like and the idea is an experiment to see if it works like well
Shit if any game is going to work. I guess it's our this feels dead well very much
Like an actual capcom test and here's the here's the thought process right this works out
We can put non switch games on the switch. Yeah
Without actually having to develop them
That's weird and straight up offer people like better than but only in japan
Yeah, and this will never come out here our internet's garbage. Yeah, it's not good enough for the average person
It's garbage. Japan internet though was pretty good. Um, I'm like at my house. We're using the streaming on the regular because
For what? Uh, so my girl's going through p5. Yeah, and uh, and we're using my vita tv
And it's on it's in another room. Uh-huh and we're streaming
It from my ps4 in the living room. Okay to over in in okay. Yeah. All right
And I could do that. Yeah, so because I'm like because sometimes I need the tv or whatever
so so like air just stream it and and use the console and
It works
80 percent of the time
What happens the other it just it thinks it's already connected it disconnects randomly
It's you know what I mean? It's just not a solid thing and I'm like I have like pretty good internet
Like and and I have boosters
Yeah in my house to to like make sure the wi-fi is at better and you know
And then like going full ethernet as well all the way over because eventually it just became a
Let's just do cable to k and even with cable to cable. Yeah, it still is not super reliable
So I feel like um after hearing about how amazing online internet is in korea and in japan like korea is special
I mean, well, they don't have the same they probably don't have the same stigma around like streaming services
You were there you had a portable wi-fi device that thing is better than most people's internets
Yeah, like the the portable wi-fi device you pay 60 bucks a month for to just have wi-fi everywhere
That's better than most people's wired connections in this continent
Yeah, every once in a while like you know someone from the states will like remind us that like oh like I've still got
Comcast or something like that. Yeah, and then I and then you talk to your friend who fucking lives in one of the cities getting google fiber
And they're like hey suck my dick. I get google google fiver
But we're still we're all behind asia forever on that. Yeah, because we have more surface area and more meta bots
Yeah, well also fiber is great until you hit a part of the network that has shit
And then it doesn't matter
That's why your downloads from steam go very fast, right? But your downloads from everywhere else. Yeah, the strength go up
Strength go up on steam downloads go low go
But anyway, um capcom's trying some shit
I mean, I guess I expect this to be
A success that we never hear about again because it's not a big success
Like there again the moxie is is one that you know is is not sure if it's this is not moxie
This is this is shit out
But if but the idea being if it works then we can switch shit out more we can put shit on the switch
Yeah, like you couldn't play on the switch otherwise
They they're probably already using some of the stuff they did to get some of their games onto the
Onto the playstation network, right?
Yeah, I'm just thinking though that like if you don't if you have a switch and you don't have any other platform
And you want to play like one of these games. You can play a terrible version of you can play a terrible version of one of these games
That's correct. That's exactly what that's exactly what i'm saying. Yeah, well matt said it first. It was one of the first things he said
Yeah
Okay
Star wars slash mario muso, yeah, okay
What?
Did matt send you this? Is that why you're reacting with was with shock?
Yeah, because tecmo is like hey, we want to make star wars and mario muso
Hey, it worked for hyrule warriors
So so
You want to you want to you want to take us through this?
Well, basically, I think it's just the president. Did someone just say something or did someone find something?
the
According to speaking to kotaku koe tecmo president has actually
Koinuma know that he wants to do more games based on star wars and mario
He really wants the the former. He really wants to be a warriors game. That's well. Yeah, that makes sense
I'll fucking play a star wars muso. Yeah, why not?
Only if one swing of the lightsaber just chopped through everybody. Well, there's gonna be a technical thing
No one's gonna. Well, no any grunts would let you
But then there's no combo because
Oh
You combo the combo against guys that do have lights
Like you're sore you hold your lightsaber out and then you just you move it
He even describes luke taking on hordes of storm troopers, but the latter sounds like an open-ended project. I think
That would be great. Even a simulation would be good. I can't think so
This was this was an interview where the dude just threw out the idea. I can't think of a single cast of characters
Uh
More than the mario series that would just be straight up goddamn awful in a fucking muso game
I don't know. I think if you like redesign it a little bit it could actually like
Jumping on a million goombas
No, I just mean like think of the range of mario's arms
That's true. They're really small. Yeah, they'd have to get creative and use all of his power-ups from all of his games
Oh, man, you know, it was a weird moment playing hyrule warriors
I played a bunch of tokyton 2 and all a bunch of the bosses reuse animations between the two games
Yeah, that sounds like tech mom goma the the spying on a spider guy from he uses
Or rather the the spider boss from uh tokyton uses almost all his animations. It's it's weird
Um, yeah, I could see I could see a situation where like stubby lim mario is using fireballs the flood
um from halo his cape his
Uh
What all all the crazy ass costumes and power-ups over the years to do shit and it would work it would be fine
I mean this line also rings true as a nintendo has always been highly protective of their ip
But lately mario rabbits kingdom battle hyra warriors hyra memorial warriors
Like it stands the reason that a not too violent mario warriors could happen at some point and even look pretty cool
Colorful star effects after unleashing an ultimate not to mention the enemies would be stubby too
Yeah, a bunch of goombas with no limbs are surrounding all the bowser's armies are the perfect fodder
bunch of shells and
Like there's there's tons you could actually do with it. Oh man like a horde of booze that like
They only come at you from behind
Yeah, that'd be awful. You know what'd be really good. You know what really fits the muso style. Oh, what's that metroid?
Yeah, it does. I the high octane
Combos of metroid with good transition. You're 100 accurate that nintendo all stars starring and star and samus would talk
All the time starring samus the metroid to the other
bounty hunters that are on the field
Or the galactic federation. Yeah
Earthbound warriors. I'm just saying put it out there. No man mother warriors mother warriors mother warriors. Why not?
She's your pk powers run around punch out mr. Satter and player
Who are you punching out?
The world just boxers showing up around the world. Yeah
I like it. And then you go. What's the field?
Referees are just showing up and
You're just
Picking fights with people
Yeah, you should know. Yeah f zero
Captain falcon running around. No, no, you're in the car. Oh, you're in the car in the blue falcon, right?
It's just a like a weird like karma getting spin off
And then you jump out of the car to do your falcon punches and then jump back in no the car does it
The car does the falcon punch. You never get out. Yeah, don't get out. But how do you how do you punch her?
The car punches. No, but no a big fist comes out of the car. No, but but the ultimate falcon punch that destroys reality
Yeah, no, it's even bigger because it's a car car. It's a fish out of the car. Yeah
It's a car fist when what are you punching just black bulls other cars the other cars samurai goro
No, okay other cars that are wearing boxing gloves. Okay in new york. Yeah, there you go
Muso. Yeah, it's very hard to tell me a genre that can't be muso game
We can always do it with stupidity sex in the city muso. Yeah, remember that throwing shoes
Yeah, yeah, sara turns into a horse and tramples around like a pona and it could be like
Tecmo warriors where you you control the squad. Yeah, and you have bring out all four and then they're like
You are god, what's that stupid guy that was always in it unlock from law and order
Unlock or dick or whatever you looks that you can serve all day. Yeah. Oh samantha perfect easy
Yeah, I don't I only know Samantha
I don't Samantha and the other one. What is pitch perfect? I've I know there's three of them
Kendrick and they're they they lip sync. Who's that? How do I Scott pilgrim sister? I need to lower myself to thank you
Cheers, I appreciate it
I thought like I could just go blank scoff
Yep, got it
Hey, woolly, how do I send you a message to get a story on the docket?
You you just say it. Okay
There is no smash brothers news is you want to talk about the sign-up sheet for smash brothers that you free
Give out about melee again. You want to talk about the rumors about
Um, uh, uh, rumored characters that's not confirmed. What do you want to talk about?
No, man. I want to talk about this talk article about smelly smash brothers
What is this article? Why do they smell so bad? What's up with this? Do you know about this? I don't know what this article is
This isn't real. You can you can it's absolutely you you've you've so the you've grabbed the wheel
So the reason why I know about this is because hungry box was going absolutely
He's going ham on kotaku for calling asking him for a comment
On what's up with the deal with smash brothers at players being very smelly and bad smelling
So I didn't say smash brothers. They say fgc. No, they said smash smash specifically
And uh in the article there are a ton of quotes from to's and whatnot being like, yeah, dude
We have to start kicking people out because they smell so bad. What's up with this?
So then I dig deeper into an actual article. Oh, yeah, it is
wow
And
I look into it and I go. Oh, surely they just mean general fgc thing
And it's like no apparently
Smash is worse
And I wanted your opinion woolly on do you know about this? No
Do you know why smash is worse or if it is indeed much worse than the rest?
I don't
They've if smash is more unwashed than the unwashed this is the basement kings from smash. Just don't know what
I don't know. Do you are you implying that something about the nintendo ip just attracts someone that doesn't shower?
No, no, I think it's wave dashing makes you smelly got it
So it's it's there's a tournament organizer that goes around to different pools and says fucking wash
I will say this. I will say that's what this article is. So so so quite so anytime you're at a major
Um, there's always that spot in casuals
Where someone's been there for a while and you can just be like, okay. Okay. This is here it is. Yeah
You can shower, but if your clothes smell like garbage, you will also smell like garbage
Wash your clothes too. Yeah
That happens. That is a quote that this walking around a room
Usually rocker walk around a venue is fine, but there's always one spot in casuals where someone just doesn't fucking get it
um
and
You know depends on on how nice the people surrounding him are but so they might get told. Hey
Fucking I I went through a bunch of I went through a bunch of threads and a bunch of places on this on this topic to see like
Is this manufactured and the fgc opinion seems to be that for whatever reason the smash area
Is like a good 20 or 30 percent worse
For whatever reason. So there's a turn to me. There's a turn to me
There's a tournament that's being organized called smash and splash and the hope is that since it's at a water park
People will not smell because they will get wet got you
That's real. Uh, I'll I'll I'll say is I'm shocked. Yeah
I'll I'll say is I guess that one of the telltale warning signs that I'm aware of
Yeah, um is
You look for the sweaty brow
Coupled with the hoodie. That's uh, oh no. Oh, no, right? I can smell because the hoodie's gonna open up
The hoodie's gonna open up at some point and when that happens. It's not good. Um, so if you know if you have stories about
uh
About this keep him
Contact me on twitter
Or you can you can send them to super best friend cast at gmail.com
Keep them keep them
Keep them. I need more data on this
I knew there was no smash news. That's absolutely news. Yeah, absolutely
How is smash gonna get into e-sports if it's smell sports?
Well, uh, athletes smell in general
Because they they work out and they they get sweaty. So
Um more e-sports that way. Oh, yeah. Yeah, okay. That's right
Smash is the most e-sports because it smells the worst the most sport of all fighting games. Yeah
Okay, he's shocked. I lost my my segue so I'll just swerve another way. Um
Whatever whenever you're ready. Yeah, I'm just that's fine. I got my moment. You got your moment
You know what else is gonna get its moment. What's that?
Yeah, see that's good or what else had its moment. No man's sky. Oh
Man, it had a moment though. It had a moment at a moment before pre-release. Yes
It had a moment doesn't doesn't imply anything besides moment
I genuinely don't know how to feel about this. No man's sky any xt update
The next update is uh launching along
Uh
On july 24th, and it's a full multiplayer
Including the ability to meet up with friends and strangers work together to survive
And build bases and prey on others and so on and so forth. So
They kept going
I didn't realize that was going to be the case after that last huge update
This this one has a they've been updating it and it's becoming a better game, but this one is
some there's a weird
Cynical tone to it. It's like this is a feature. They actually just said was in the game when it came out
This is what i'm calling spiked patches
Ooh
Spiked patches. These are spiked patches spiked patches. Do you get to have spiked when you're a huge liar?
Is it is that if the future corrects you it makes you not a liar that is not how that fucking works
Right, I mean they're make goods
But like on other make goods on people that like had expectations
But but it feels like that's what's what's going on a little bit in the sense that like
I mean, fuck they did a lot in that last patch and this is a huge ass add-on as well
And we know that dmc devil may cry got patched into being good. Yes, so
spiked patches are a thing
Yeah, is that no that's
no that
Hey, this thing's in the game. Hey, no, it's not. Oh, damn you. I'll put it into spiked. That's no woolly means like when they're when they
Press publish on the patch. They go fine
Here's the thing you want. Okay
Fine that attitude doesn't seem justified
No, it's not and and and and you also have to consider too that especially if a lot of folks are just like
If a lot of the negative like the the vibe is negative already, yeah, then it's kind of like it's like a
I'll show you here. We'll just success is the best revenge, you know, and that is sure I like success is the best
I do love that saying it's great
Living well is the best. Yeah, I do feel that I feel that I feel a bit of that. Um, but but hey, um
Someone's excited for that
Moving on yeah
That's someone I guess if you only have an xbox and you've always wanted to play the best version of this I guess that makes sense
Um, tell you what I am excited for tell me what you're excited for. Hey, guess what indivisible
delayed to have first half of 2019
take
Fucking all the time you need. Yeah, also
everyone else
Is also delaying every like if you saw there's another story. It was like
uh dark ciders 3 and that new uh, uh, not god metro game metro exodus
Everything's getting delayed to 2019 now it seems
Um, everyone's like, oh, we're gonna release in october or red dead. Fuck do it's like
When you talked at least a little while ago about how everybody moves the fuck out of rock stars way
Yeah, didn't think they were gonna move all the way out of the fucking
End of the year then they look at november then they all december is a weird month
No, don't don't sell games in december because then everyone's already spent their money
I'm glad that most like of what I saw the the fan reaction to this has been like
Mostly positive it seems but you know, they're like when they draw the picture
Of god, what's the character's name ajna ajna when she she's like this. She's like
Yeah, she's scared. Yeah
So they're at least racing
Take your time lab zero
There's no shortage of great games right now and we want
Fuck a delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad
Shigeru Miyamoto, but I did see like other people going like, you know, you know what got delayed for years
Is that not the quote? I do not believe because the delay game is not necessarily eventually good
No, but that's but he did say that though. I think that's the spirit of a rush. I think he says a rushed
Yeah, let me anyway. Um, but uh, I did talk to someone that's like, you know what got delayed a lot mighty number nine
Yeah, sure did. I mean, we're also talking to kickstart a game. So like being delayed is yeah
Make the game better a rushed game is forever bad
Uh
A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad. Oh man shigeru Miyamoto. That's not true
Is it later rushed? It's both. Yeah, it's literally a delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad
That first part. I'm sorry. Well, you did get the quote completely right. The problem is that the quote is wrong
A delayed game is eventually good. No
That's not true at all. Hmm. I think the spirit of what he's saying is oh, yes, absolutely
Whether or not the language is accurate. Yes, but we're also talking to the man that says give samus different heads
Also, so blame the translate the translator retro
Samus should have different heads pat insect head. Yes
Blame the translator of whatever japanese word for delay is
And then and no, it's not the delay. It's the eventually good
Being delayed doesn't automatically let make your game better. No, it doesn't it doesn't but it's the it's a process
That can make your game good. So like again the spirit of what he's saying is
Well, yeah, the spirit is you're better off delaying your game and working on
The frustration you will feel from your game not coming out now now now now now is temporary
And forever afterwards is forever if the game's gonna be good delaying it often makes it better
If the game's gonna be bad delaying it may save it or not
Now since indivisible is almost assuredly going to be a very good game
This will very likely make it only just a little bit better just a little bit just that little bit
Yeah, but you just you don't you you want to hope that you're not
Rather, I hope that they're not
Going to have really angry
Backers being rude and shitty about that kind of stuff because in the end it's it's for the best
That's not how kickstart works and also for good and for ill right the kickstarter
We're getting all the money to for this huge delay and I like that at least they say it's like 505 games
It's going to just fund the rest of it. Anyway
505 games
Yeah, 505 is at least something now. They were there were nothing years ago. So it's nice
You uh, you see what's going on at splatfest
Yes
Listen, I think I think I want to say the upset of the century some crossovers going down and uh, are you fucking for real?
Yeah, they have the straight up like which turtle do you like better and uh
The collaboration between ninja turtles and splatoon
So weird when it doesn't result in any actual crossover
Yeah, like there's no turtles dlc in the game or whatever and uh
and just like that
Donatello beats rafael not as the most popular turtle. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
That I I would not have I'm gonna just straight up say it's like you want a poll
I'm gonna fucking one. That's not my my choice weird. I'm gonna say that the splatoon audience is uh
It has different opinions than the general populace in many cases
That that's all that I can think about that because that is a weird result could be
Yeah, somebody fixed it
Somebody cheated over an Nintendo somebody pushed it's a fudge the numbers. It's the only way unexpected. I'll say it's the only way
Yeah
I knew this would be a good brought up
Moving on. Yes, badge. You see this
What
Uh mission am I developing a live action adaptation of fear the first one?
I assume so the fear franchise in general not fear 3
No, not for three or for three or for three or the prego. See, uh, you know, it's really cool
Do you remember missionaries to do these all the time? I do remember. Yes
And they're always fighting games and they're always pretty universally terrible. Yeah, what?
The you mean the street fighter and the mortal combat legacy
Well, I don't know what you're talking about great. Um, see I'm doing I I fear cool
That's neat. That might be good. Hmm. Maybe that's
That's what all the all the unlisting is about is to make it to make room and paxton fettle
All of those heroes that you know
I can't believe they actually went ahead and just called him point man for the whole series
Greg Russo is associated. I don't know who that is
He is pending the new film adaptations of resident evil and mortal combat those things that are like not out
So it means nothing really. Okay. I don't know but uh
What's this quote here?
As a lifelong gamer, it's an absolute honor to pardon the shenma the pre eminent provider of digital content to gamers worldwide
Fear holds a special place in my heart. I'm excited to bring my personal. Okay. Well, that's that's
Well, he just got rid of the story the mouse did it and I don't that's you know, that's fine. That's fine, you know
But yeah, when are we gonna get the next entry and how is the number gonna be incorporated into the title?
Yeah, exactly. Is it five year? No, man. There's a skipping one. There's four four then there's the expansion pack
For fear or fear
No, here's fea four. Yeah, dude. No, cuz like fear three
Yeah, it's f
Three a r. Correct. Well four looks like an a so it's just gonna be fe four r
Okay, cuz r also looks like a 14. Yeah, see. Yeah, okay. Oh, yeah, you're right. Yeah
But then the five would have to replace the f because so you want you want fee for no, I want fee for
I want and we get to fee for but then at a point you have to get to five three four r
I want to find the guy that named fear and put the three in the logo and had that stupid dumb ass box art
With the eyeballs of Alma and the guys like shoulder cracks
I want to find out where that man is today. Maybe we can eventually replace the r entirely and just have four completely new numbers
And that's the series now way this is just name it's scary
And then and then you'll have you'll have you'll have the s to turn into a five and five carry
What if you're stand for first encounter salt recon right? Okay
It was a decent pun the very first game. Yeah
The guys in the universe that thought the name I must have been like, oh man
We're nailing it. Yeah, man. We're so cool first encounter. So we come in we're 15. Yeah
Speaking of nailing it
There's an explanation for why there's no single-player campaign in call of duty con blobs for yeah
It's because oh man the battle royale, man
This is better. It's gotta be battle battle royale
So people did the math on the map on this because they put out a quote
Is it four or is it black ops two two in it? It's so
Apparently roman numerals are stupid. We get to make up our own and you actually can write
Four as four ones. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
Interesting and it also lets them make a little logo that looks like that. Uh, this is the codlops four is what we were describing
talking about and
Uh, so they showed up they did an event just now like yesterday or some shit where they said, hey
You're gonna have vehicles and they show oh, you're gonna be able to fly a plane or the helicopter and this
and that it's the biggest map ever and then a quote that came out from this was
It's
1500 times bigger than nuke town
And nuke town is the smallest map they ever made
However, because people know like you can just go into a nuke town map right now and pace it and know exactly
So it's gonna be a big map. It's gonna be a little smaller than fortnight. It's gonna be four and a half kilometers square
Probably the most interesting thing about it is that what they've just they described in that event. It's a little unclear, but they said
We're gonna be bringing you know, the you know, the foot
Themselves also like we're gonna bring all the years of experience of the most
Fucking polished fps. Fuck whatever. Yeah
And then they say we're gonna bring parts of all of your favorite maps to this map
That sounds like a mess. It sounds like
They're going the the way that you so
Well, you must remember when you played pub g
There's the the farm and then there's the factory and you know every the different corners of the island
So it looks like what they're thinking of doing is going to be like this part of the map is a slightly larger version of call of duty
4 is overgrown and this is the the map that has the similar layout to china town and whatnot
And that's actually really interesting
To play on like the mega call of duty map the blop verse the blop verse map still sounds like a mess
Like mega man zero well
Yeah, see the thing is mad is the battle royale is a fucking mess. That's the whole genre is
It's a big fucking mess that you throw yourself into I saw a take on this that said wow
If I could think of any series of the call of duty like mini series that
I would not take the single player out. It's black ops
They were just like black ops had the best story or the most interesting one and the other ones were like the most disposable
Oh, it didn't matter what happened in the last one and they're like why this one?
Weird choice uh the all that I can think of is that I saw some rumblings that like
They were working on a single player. I saw that too, but that it was a massive internal disaster
And that they're like
Well, the the the quote is that it was never in the cards. That's bullshit. That is garbage
There is no
Fucking way it's part of the fucking call of duty formula to get you to pay 60 bucks for a multiplayer game
Is that you make that three hour campaign?
There's that that is absolute nonsense
According to trey arkad dan blunting traditional multiplayer campaign was never in the cards
they set out to make a different game inspired by how the community was interacted with blops three and
More players were doing multiplayer zombies and it influenced them to just make a different style of game
Yeah, these games have to come out every year and if there's should have been called like call the duty zombie or whatever battle royale
Like why call it because blops is a name that means a lot that means single player campaign
This is the this is in addition to multiplayer for sure
Well, I'll I'll I'll have to disagree with you there matt because I don't mean I don't mean like only the call of duty fan base
Has been like it they're they're they're multiplayer people and that's why they're such a big push
For hey, can we just get a 30 dollar version of this game? That's just the multiplayer. What about what about the no
No, no, not not only will you not get that?
You will get a 60 dollar version that has two different multiplayer
Which is probably the weirdest thing about this. What about the vr heads like because one of these modes is gonna die
Guaranteed one of these modes is gonna be better than the other one on the same disc
um
What's it gonna say?
You know what rings, you know, it's a lot more uh smooth to the ears willy when your guy says hey, don't worry
Single player was never that sounds a lot better than yeah, we just cut it because it was a disaster. Oh, absolutely
Of course, it sounds better. Yeah, that's true, but I mean
it's
I feel like big lies and big untruths
In in video games are becoming easier to see
I mean to me it's kind of well, it's like it has been that way forever, but I couldn't
Like I could I could there see there being a point where they just eventually are like fuck this they look at the clock
They look at the the the the months ahead and they just go fuck it. Why why not just well
That's what i'm talking like do this thing these games
Like they they the the dates that this game comes out on is is nailed down three years ahead of time
And that's when it's gonna fucking come out
Period. Yeah call of duty games. Don't get delayed because they have to ship that quarter every single year
So if you fuck up your single player
Somehow you better have something else to make the the the corporate overslugs happy
And you know what's hot right now the battle royale. It's the hottest
Yeah, and we'll always be the hottest with no signs of slowing down
That's probably gonna be around for years and years. Yeah, we need to build on the blop averse
I'll be quite honest. I'm interested in this because call of duty does play well. It's smooth and it feels good to play
so
That would be a nice change of pace. It'd be nice from the current
Battle royale. It'd be nice. I think woolly and I would agree. It would be nice if they just changed it all to predators
Maybe there's a predator thing that's an off-brand predator
Maybe
Speaking of universes, you know, it'd be a great bet before you know, it'd be a great battle royale matt
one versus 99
Fucking battle royale like snake versus the guards but a hundred people
I would actually depending on the franchise. I would always probably give that a go
Be if it's predator or it's alien or it's if the if the one has a shot like a real honest
Oh, yeah, no, it's the predator
Then yeah, it's the predator
Yeah versus a hundred people on a big map
Well, the the ghost recon wildlands dlc that I bought it was four people against one predator and you still couldn't do it
It was ai for fuck's sake
But like couldn't you couldn't beat him but couldn't like let's say even if there was like invisibility like hard for real invisibility
Couldn't the hundred just make a giant circle and then just fire and closing any of them would be that organized
You need to get a hundred friends to you say that but there's replays online of ridiculous shit
That's true, but that's for like, you know, giant mmo make them have to do
After watching what motherfuckers did in armored core on the the when the servers were going down
Oh, you mean you mean the where they turned armored core into macros like I anything is possible kevin granate
I I believe it
Um speaking of anything being possible
Fuck shin Godzilla 2 dead
New hotness massive kaiju filled cinematic universe
Yeah, so you know what what?
shin Godzilla
The best thing like fucking that I've seen gods Godzilla related ever for sure
Evolving into this as opposed to being ditched for this needs to be clarified because if it you know why though
Why well it's not in this press release, but like, you know the guy that shinji hankuchi
Whatever guy that the guy that co-directed shin Godzilla, but also directed the attack on time movies
Yeah, he was at a thing and he is just basically pretty veiled but still like
I was unhappy during the making of this
Of this film because like they were getting in the way of the producers at toho
What do they wanted this they wanted that so him and enno are ne they said we're never no never doing this again
So yelling me I think toho we want to be like well, let's not try it again
Because we're just not going to be able to make a good follow-up in that style if they're not going to do it
So let's just
You're telling me that well that sucks issues on an anno with hit it a piano. Yeah, are you
I don't
Believe so it's not just that the name is scrapped. It's that the actual concept of their being shin gods
That sucks
Now to be fair there are like lots of
decent Godzilla movies to good ones where it was just a one-off and then they stopped they didn't go for
I mean dude now there's precedent for a legendary
Godzilla was fine. Yeah. Hey, you know what that's its own monster verse if you remember
Yeah, these are different. Yeah, there's two monster verses because legendaries runs out in 2020
So once that's done, they're gonna be like and they say they say some of these
We want to make one of these every two years, which i'm like no
Like that did that once that thing set up a lot of uh, you know
It set up other monsters in the world and it was fine, but shin was so much better
That it just makes me forget the rest, you know, it's like it's funny because that's a fucking bummer
Like we just talked about battle royale games, right and everybody's trying to get on the bandwagon for battle royale
And you look at the marvel cinematic universe and now everyone's trying to get on the cinematic universe train, right?
A lot of people were trying to do that most of it already failed
Yeah, but the difference is is that the the marvel cinematic universe gimmick
That takes like five to ten years. It's not like a genre. You could just go bam
We're gonna make we're gonna make a monster movie just like marvel date or whatever
And just watching it crash and burn so much more slowly
Then you're gonna see it in games is so interesting to me
Because
Like matt you just pointed out most of them have already failed, but people are still jumping in trying to do it
Yeah, after they watched tons of people fail
Because like even like fast and the furious you wanted your spin offs
So we have other even star wars is basically doing it
Where we're having the cinematic universe by having prequels every other year and do you
We could have had a
Shit godzilla were like all of a sudden a fucking elevator from beneath the city pops up and an avas in it
Like do you remember this was the this was the most interesting thing ever where
World of warcraft came out and was the hottest shit remember and then everyone announced their mmo's
We're all gonna do mmo's
And then a year went by and then a second year went by and then another batch of people announced their mmo's because
Wow, it got even bigger like it doubled in size
It was like and then the first batch of copycats came out and all failed
And then and then everyone who was making the the second batch got to look at that and go oh
Well, it's we uh, it's too late now
We can't this is what I see with movies these decisions are being made
Because you're committed and now they're committed you're committed
But then you get to watch everyone just crash and we're like the fucking mummy thing was the the worst one the dark universe
Speaking of which I saw like on a sidebar there on the previous article you said turns out the dark universe is still alive
Like you need to make one have it be a good movie
Make a second one let that independently be good and then you can think about making the rest
That's why legendaries things so far has been okay because legendary godzilla like made enough money then
Is skull
Kong skull island came out and I was like not into that all that much
But it still made a decent amount of money then they're doing one more godzilla then they're doing king kong versus godzilla
That's it. That's always been the plan like let's just get in with a solid plan of all the movies and then stop
Or because we ran run out of the license whatever and I'm like that could work, but we'll see
Jesus that was scary. Yeah, look at that scary. I was looking for the article you mentioned, but uh
It was like over there. I don't know. Okay. Well, anyway
Uh, yeah, don't stop with your your cus. Everybody stop it. Stop it unless it's really good or don't
Keep trying said I'm still maybe gonna get like to what godzilla movie every two years and I can't be too angry
Are you ready for the monster hunter cinematic universe?
We're how often were they coming up before that though in the 2000s?
They were coming out one a year wasn't that there was a point where it fucking just 99
2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 the slowdown was like 2010 the millennium series is called because it's
at the start of the millennium and they did way too many and
They they have the lowest revenues of any godzilla movies because they were shitting them out because they're shitting them out
Uh, let's take some emails
If you want to send an email you want to shut out an email you want to shut out an email
And then compare it to what a smash player smells like
All right, that's really not bad
That's a very good connection. You can send it to super best friendcast at gmail.com. That's I think it was worth it now
It's super best friendcast at gmail.com
Uh
And then you get your email read. All right. We gotta inhale the stink lines off these smelly emails
We got one right here. It just says important
Matt, I want you to lean over. Yeah. It's got two little bars. Very important
Yes
It's a picture of randy orton
Very important doing the legendary killer pose. Thank you. Thank you only the purple fruit amazing
And it's all cropped well and it's like it's like a transparent background. It's a png. It's high quality
Very very high quality. That's a good email. Not stinky at all. Well, except for when randy orton takes shits of people's stuff
Yeah
That's a weird one, man
It's not appropriate to do at a workplace
Okay, remember when I shat and all your stuff when if bradshaw is still employed. That means you can do anything
Yeah, you're right. Yeah, you're right. You're totally right. You shit all over bradshaw
Uh devon says dare boop boop boop friend cast first time writer a long time viewer. Um stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff
In one of my college classes
I found out that one of my classmates was also into horror and we talked about movies for a while
Silent Hill came up and we talked about the video game franchise and it turns out that she played the first four games
And a few of the later ones in the series when I asked what her favorite silent hill was she said homecoming. All right
She then asked why fans hated homecoming so much and I tried to make it more of a discussion
Um, that's smart. That's smart and it turns out the reason
Why it's her favorite is because
Uh, she couldn't stand the first three's controls and like that quote. The main character is crazy
Uh professor walked in before I could say anything and we never talked about video games are horror again
My question is have you ever met a perfectly decent person who really loves a thing?
Yeah, that you despise to the point where it changes your relationship with that person
Men slash billy. Yeah says devil may cry 2 is the best devil may cry game and he is absolutely 100 percent serious
He hangs on that fucking cross every time he dies on that hill. So we have billy
Loves dmc 2 we we have talked to a lot of we over our over the past 15 years when we talked to friends
When we talked to people in the industry when we talked to other youtubers
You hear people with a lot of crazy opinions
But no one ever
Has come close to the one that I heard like 15 years ago. Yeah, I can't think of anything. This is comparable
This is not throwing anyone under the bus. No, he set up a shop under there. He's been there
That's his favorite devil may cry game and you will not convince him otherwise
Like we can't throw him a bit under the bus a little bit where we go
Not only does he love devil may cry too, but he's like, I don't like how jokie and lame don't take
In devil may cry 3. No, you want it. You want to really fucking go there when we finished when he finished editing up the fucking
Parasite eve 2 playthrough and I really appreciate that. He did a great job
He's he messages us in the editor's channel. He's like, hey guys, you're gonna play 3. It's the best one
How about third birthday? The third birthday is really good. You guys should really play third birthday
Dude
That is that is the that is the one that is the absolute one. Is he just is he just running like the longest con? No
There's he's never cracked. This is he's never cracked because if so, he's the strongest person that's ever existed
There's no win at that. There's no winning that he's not gonna go. Ha gotcha
Maybe oh my fucking that doesn't do anything to me. I'll be frustrated. It's sure uh
John from boston. Hey boston. John. Hey boston, man
Agents of uh, hey most hey most best friends agents of mayhem is on sale on psn for seven bucks and 49 cents
Nine months after release
Or you can get the deluxe edition for 50 cents more with every piece of dlc
What is the fastest price drop you've ever seen fastest price drop ever seen good question?
Um
Here's there's something
I remember Tomb Raider was like it's not the fastest
But I remember within like no it might have been radical heights
I remember I remember within from free to know I remember radical heights again
I remember Tomb Raider the the the new Tomb Raider
Dropped like 20 bucks within like a couple weeks. What's the timeline? It was crazy fast. I remember what's the timeline on battleborn battle?
Cause to new Tomb Raider around for like a year new Tomb Raider. Are you sure it wasn't just promotion?
No, no the price got dropped to like 40 bucks within like two weeks
I don't know that doesn't sound right like I could have but I don't know
I want to say that I remember after like a bomb so bad bionic commando grin
Would like receive the massive price cut as well to like try to
Cover the losses of it not selling
Hmm
Yeah, uh, I there's probably like an actual trying to think of the bomba threads
I would just say bomba this game this price now after like a couple weeks
Battleborn was released december 7th 2015 for 60 bucks and then by july 17
It was uh at
They dropped the price in half when overwatch came out. It was at 30. Yeah
Yeah, uh january 14th 2017 it got dropped to 30 bucks
So because the ultimate price drop is that's one year is going to be from full price to free, right?
And how fast is that I kind of don't count that just because it's a different business model rather than just dropping the price
Hmm, maybe like it counts and it doesn't count to me. I don't know
It's yeah, yeah
I mean if you want to talk about trash like we've all seen games get dropped to like 10 bucks
Like two weeks after their release
But I don't even remember the names of those games because that's it's gotta be stuff like never dead and and knight's contract
Just and then there's and then there's games that never dropped their fucking price ever ever nintendo games. Yeah nintendo games
No, but I mean even the garbo ones
like
I saw a screenshot of like a fucking 3ds game of corey in the house for 3ds that was still full price
Ah, yeah, I saw that screenshot. Yeah, yeah
Um, yeah, I think battleborn is a pretty strong contender if it's not the answer. How fast did evolve die?
That's another one too. Oh that must die
That's another one too because because even with your caveat that it's different evolve went from a 60 to free to dead
Yeah, no, I think that's definitely there somewhere
Uh lawmakers
Oh, shit, is this true does anyone have data on that?
Lawbreaker. Well, what are you looking at a price trial some popular?
2014 game titles for xbox one and playstation 4
apparently when
Shadow of Mordor came out 60 dollars and it came out on september 18th
Then by november 23rd, you could buy it for 25 dollars in some places. Wow
Official like mr sp, right?
Because I wouldn't count the stuff because you know, there was things where it's like
Oh, go to future shop and you can get it like half price. Oh by the way to those of you who have best buys gamer club things
Best buy says get fucked that deal is dead forever now, which sucks
You know that thing they have the 20 percent off if you pay a small sure sure. Yeah, that's dead
Okay, best buy doesn't want you to buy games there anymore. I guess. Yeah, um
There was those deals where is like certain 60 dollar games would come out at like like 40 with you. Um
If you bought them on day one at best buy or whatever the fuck that the ridiculous discount was and and yeah
Like those that wouldn't count I'd say I'm talking about like msrp drop, you know
Um, what about brink? Do you guys remember brink barely? Yeah, exactly. I wonder how fast that died
But it died real fast
Charlie from gloss of bingland says the super frienders. I was talking to some friends earlier today
And I came up with things that really freak our shit out
um
And uh
Discounting stuff from horror games because that's a core component of this. Yeah, of course
You mean the obvious one is the redeads from his 3d zeldas. Yes
Um that fucking fish from mario 64 is to start with the convict music in Dead Rising why
The start of the convict music in Dead Rising why no, I'm gonna have to disagree with that
That pumps you up
Bond guru is such a great trash song
Uh, yeah, the question is uh, basically getting at what's the most bone-chilling like sound or music or stuff in a non-horror game
I'm gonna go with that fish from mario 64. That fish is strong, but that's music sound sound music sound
um
We talked about sonic sonic sonic drowning sonic drowning sonic drowning is anxiety in audio form
Yeah, just they put anxiety into a synthesizer and made it sound. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's it
That's you won. You won one. That's that's
I give shout outs to cycle mantis theme as well for being like nice
Oh, whenever I stand alone plays in principle
Because you know the tahaka's
Chris says, why would you this matt? Why why what did you do? Why would I this matt? What you do?
No, no sure. No. All right
um
Jake from state farm. What are your best favorite death animations? Uh leon, but it's not the animation. It's the noise
Like man, it's hilarious one of my favorites is getting too close to a bloater in last of us
Yeah grabs you rips your face off by and then rips off your lower jaw
Uh, honestly, I'm gonna just throw up the entire metal slug franchise
Those animations and metal slug of of like the different elaborate deaths are fucking incredible some of the best sprite work
I remember being blown away in tarot too whenever you use certain weapons and they'd get like holes blown in their chest and you'd see like the
um
The the ribs kind of poking out and people get like you because every every character model in that game had different sets of death
Animation no no no one had the same ones like this creature was too different from another one
So and I remember being just like wow
Lara Croft gets it pretty hard in yes in the new franchise as well. She sure does
um
But I'm gonna go for something
Like out there, but do you remember earthworm gym one sure do when you kill slug for a butt?
Not I don't remember the when you kill the final boss and like you shoot her and if you're in a circle going around and around shooting her
on her butt and no, well you're shooting her her in the body at that point and um
She's like bursts and bursts and like like like like almost like a chestbuster kind of thing happens
Where like her whole upper torso explodes
But the rib cage stays and all the guts splay out like I don't remember this at all
And it's just those gory ass like the top half of her torso is blown open and the rest is still just bleeding out there
And it was really messed up. Um, I'm gonna go man
Do you remember in dead space those
With a name of the monsters that you fought in dead space one primarily where they were made up of little tentacle monsters
And when you shot it they would fly apart. Yeah, there was an animate
There was a there was a death animation where the head would grab a hold of your neck
And knock your head off and then insert into your neck and become your head. Yeah, and then look at the camera
It was awesome
AVP games have a lot
Oh, yeah, they sure do specifically like specifically like the last one the 2010 one
I had all the every every creature had a different death animation, but I I forgot about the one
I think it's an AVB two the one the earlier ones where you started as a chest burster
And you had to work your way through the chest cavity. Yeah, that's AVB too. It's that's AVB too
So you had to you had to burst it was just that kind of counts
Uh, yeah
And master D. Yeah master D master D by an commando. Yeah, so his head explodes real good. That's it was legit
Um, and lastly we'll take one from drew who says
Andrew, what up, uh, dear pat matt marcus and the rest
Uh, for everybody who's been marcus isn't here today though. He's fucking
Just not put it in the work for everyone who's been wondering
Why do half the goldfish crackers have smiley faces and half don't
Do you think the smiling ones know something the others don't?
Or is it something more dire? No, I think the ones that aren't smiling know something. Yeah, they know that they're fucking crackers
We're about to eat get eat 100 pepperage farms refuse it or frauds and they will not answer
I hope you guys have insight fucking. I never was really into like goldfish as a kid or whatever as eating
but like nowadays they have
Chocolate cookies and cream goldfish. They have like every type of flavor. I like that original goldfish
That's easy flavor now that we know that 50% of them are alive. Yes. Yeah sentient
That's what's happening is I would say half the population of goldfish. No
and are alive and the other half are just crackers. Yeah, and
Uh, that's that's that's where you're going with this one. Yeah, that's what it is
Pepperage farm make sure that only 50 of their crackers get splashed with that god ooze that they made
Oh, yeah, the goose bring them bring bring them life. That's good. Mm-hmm
What's coming up? What's coming out? All right, so we've got more god of war coming out. Obviously all the time
We got uh, we got tokyo mirage sessions coming out all the time
Uh, we're gonna have a special series of videos based around
What the fuck is the name of the game? Oh my god, uh, be uh,
Detroit
Detroit that's oh, you're right. Okay, so this is where we explain. Yes, right? Yeah, okay
So we've mentioned it before
But I guess it would uh be like a bare re-explanation because that explanation is like two months old. Yeah, so um prior to
Well, first of all like
the the
There's there's there's been multiple episodes of this lp that have already come out exactly
We have talked about beyond a fucking shit
Detroit beyond two holes
Detroit
Become human on many occasions. Yeah, and we feel
That to do this justice before the lp that everyone deserves the context of those discussions
Episode zero is a thing and that is
uh previous discussions
And in particular a discussion that we have yet to have which we're about to have in about
15 minutes and that is what our predictions are about
What is going to happen because remember now there's three playable characters
So much more going on in this world. So every image is so dense, right?
Now here's the other thing too is that like we early early early on talked about like the bingo card possibility and such
There's so much but now there's little i've i've there are dozens
There are literally eight of them that people have made and sent out over
Not to mention very like and people have made them like for us and many of them are very good
And people have made them for themselves and other people have made them like for different articles and websites
So it's kind of like at what point like do you just pick one of like, you know what I mean?
So we have to figure out what kind of system obviously if you don't like anything that we do you can pick your own or make your own
Yeah, and the thought and the thought process. Uh, I was leaning towards was yeah, let's make our own
Yes, I believe but now that there's like again like dozens of them out there with material to pick from it's kind of like do we
Do we just
Provide
You know what I mean? Do we do we take our favorites from the like what what's the I don't know?
So we'll talk about it. Yeah in a bit. Um
That's gonna go up first as episode zero
and
Then as soon as humanly possible
We will when we get the game in our hands record it and throw it up
And begin episode one. Yeah
Because it's just we have to
Like we've been kind of flirting with doing something like this and the other ones, but it was just like
We can we can make you can win things by watching yourself
But the we can we can make an episode zero before we have our hands on it
Yes, and as soon as we get our hands on it in fact, we have to make an episode zero before we get our hands
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right. Yeah, right, but I'm saying I'm saying this is what we can do
Yeah, right and then once we do
Then as soon as possible
The episode will come out. Yes, uh, the basically it's a roundabout way of saying it's like unfortunately due to circumstances
Somewhat outside of our control. We are not going to be able to get the the first part of the lp out on friday or saturday
It will be slightly delayed
Until uh later in the following week. Hopefully not. Maybe we can make something work. Yeah, but probably so
There's a lot of anticipation obviously, but we're doing our best
It'll happen in the meantime. Please enjoy. Please enjoy episode zero many context
I need to go and get some booze
Yeah, bring it here
Get me 10 boozes. You can't drink boozes. I know get me a whole especially 10 booze a whole booze
You're right one whole booze. I think willy and I will also take a look at omen site this week site is going to happen this week
Yep
Um, and uh, that'll be that'll be the lock
And that means that uh, tokyo mirage
Detroit and god of war is going to be your best friend's channel for the near foreseeable future
Since we're 25 into god of war. No, no, we're at we're actually we're in there
We're we're in there. We're like two-thirds tokyo become our last session was really good
Yeah, yes, it was actually ah the thing happened god mirage human
That's that's the name of the ark now. No tokyo
Beyond god I said I said tokyo beyond's not even I said I said I said to I said tokyo become war
tokyo become god
or you could are
Mirage of human
All right as previously so that's what's happening on the main channel as previously mentioned woolly and liam have started a
near automatic tomato
Let's play on woolly versus that's happening part one is currently up. That's up if you want to
Please check that out over at woolly versus if you are interested in that you should go look at that
near and other things coming
