Good afternoon, morning, evening or night, ladies and gents, and welcome to Corncast number 42.
I'm your host, Alex, joined as always by...
I don't know who I'm looking at right now, but I think it's James.
Me?
Yeah, and then, uh, in the, in the background, we got Mama or Jim.
Yo, what's up?
Oh, and there he is, the Mass Effect follower came on in Ruben.
Yeah, I'm just cooking.
Now it is.
Before we get too deep into the show, let me shout out the Jam Media Patreon.
They make the audio version of the show possible.
And have your names shred out in the first week of each month.
Have a look over there for the perks.
42, guys.
Or should I say 41?
I'm not going to explain what happened with the last episode,
but it wound up being numbered 42,
so I guess this is actually 41.
So good luck if you're confused about the numbers or whatever,
but I'm not going to adjust that.
Wait, how did this happen?
We're better than this.
We're smarter than this.
I don't know.
I guess I just decided it was episode 42,
so I just made the thumbnail be like a 42 and stuff.
So then it was like, oh, so is this 43 or should I go back?
No, now, let's take 42 again.
Yeah, we got three options.
We either continue to 43,
or we say this is 42 again or this is 41.
No, no, we correct the timeline without going back and correcting the timeline.
This is 42.
Yeah, what would Captain America do?
I feel like in Final Fantasy, you know,
since Final Fantasy games can release as like 13-2,
we can just do episode 42 too that's fine that's one option it's that time guys it's that
time for the for the corner someone else just whip out a name for this segment because i don't
ain't got nothing for the for this week's without a name housekeeping yeah oh i still mean a name
for this section um mansion looking after ring
welcome to Mansion looking aftering
the segment of the show
where we go back to comments from the last episode
and just bust a few balls really
Tom Tom Tom is going to start us off
this guy and Jim inventing the same shitting technique
is like Edison and Tesla coming up with the light bulb
at the same time
It's more impactful
There were a few comments regarding
I called it in the time codes
Ruben's game theory or something, hence why they phrase it this way, but
the Vandals says, a great example of Ruben's game theory is TF2.
At release, it was pretty well balanced and simple, the art style was consistent, and there
was very little distractions in gameplay.
Nowadays, you have people, the fuck?
I don't know what word they're supposed to be saying here, but people, I guess,
converging with banana hats and unicorns floating around, and there have been full
subclasses made from the extra
weapons introduced over the years. There's a great
video you might find interesting about this
called Death of an Art style.
I find... Yeah, I know
the video, actually.
Yeah, thoughts
on the TF2?
I actually, I cited
TF2 in my dissertation because
of the silhouette and the
hats totally ruined, the silhouette
thing. Yeah.
Now, just balance doesn't matter anymore.
Apparently, no one cares.
And on the same topic, Fierreembrus said Warframe is a game that expanded to a point where it's become a chore to play.
I know you've dabbled in Warframe.
I don't know if you've played it enough to fully agree or disagree with that comment there.
Yeah, I think it's a pretty, immediately I was like, you know, I don't want to fucking play this.
I don't want to play any of them anymore.
You know, they just can't be able to it.
Yeah, it gets quite high, isn't it?
Yeah, so it's annoying.
because I'd be down to play
Warframe, like that game
feels fun as fuck
but I don't want to have to be
Googling shit constantly
because I didn't know
it's crazy
how much Googling it to do
I have tried with that game
but it was just too difficult
to, there's too much like management
that
and last one on this comment
or this topic, sorry
from Chung-Skingi
to add to the over-expansionation
conversation, siege has every form of monetization possible. You first have to buy the
base version of the game with one shit character which is about 10 pounds when not on sale,
then to unlock every one of the base game characters playing the game casually will
probably take you about a week, unless you just buy them all, but that's not even counting
all the other more expensive characters that can take a week to unlock, which are essential
to the game's matter, which is heavily defined by the amount of characters you have access
to. So on top of that you have alpha packs, loopboxes,
which gives you skins and such.
And then, if that wasn't enough, monetization,
you also have a seasonal battle pass,
which is the fastest way to unlock the new characters introduced.
I feel that many siege players who have played for years and years
don't realize how fucking nutty this is.
And that's a bit of a trend too,
because I feel like Destiny has a similar problem too,
where it has its weird microtransaction store,
but it also has, like, you're charged for seasons
and also expansions have a cost as well.
It adds up quick.
Destiny is probably more expensive than like just paying five bucks a month for like an MMO.
Yeah, I'd way prefer to just buy a game and have the game.
And if you do want to do a live service,
don't cram it full of so many different ways of like bleeding your personal.
Sorry to interrupt this, but we are being attacked in the game
and we're going to get swarmed in a minute and it's going to mess everything up.
Are you serious?
Yeah, they're at our gate.
There's a massive monster at our gate.
Look at it.
No, but the thing with Siege is the one that's being missed is the, like, the 20-pound
DLC skins as well, like Apex.
Yeah, yeah, the elite skins.
Yeah, but Apex is free, I guess, it's the big diff.
Yeah, no, I think Siege is a fucking joke.
It's because it's been around long enough where it was, it came out in the time of
battle packs or whatever.
It came out in 2015.
the time of battle pass so just cram them all in and it's fucking bullshit because i replayed that
game a fair bit and you're the whole cosmetics you'd only get them through packs the best thing i
got from the packs was a doge charm but now it doesn't matter because there's a battle
i um it's funny there's a there's a fucking book i've been reading i think i mentioned it already but
just it was it mentions how capitalism brings with it a desacralization
of culture but and also repackages things on an ad hoc basis and that's that's it there
siege is just like it was just like okay this is what games are and it just added every new thing
as it happened every new innovation every new way of just like taking money from people because
they're fucking stupid it was just yeah this can go in the game now we're going to have this in the
game as well we just repackaged it on an ad hoc basis so i just so it rang very true there
and siege is a really horrible example of it siege is gross
Yeah, it's just too much at a certain point.
Like, when people describe Destiny is free to play, I'm like...
Really? How?
What can you actually do in Destiny if you don't want to spend any money?
I think you can go to the Cosmodrome.
Yeah, like, it's not content.
Do nothing there.
You can, like, it's around with, like, the public events.
Um, fuck, what are we talking about?
Destiny 2 being free to pay?
We all done with that topic anyway, to be honest.
Yeah, we've done it to death over the last couple.
weeks.
My fault.
We had a final bit on
this pasta
debate that's been going on. A couple
comments here. One from Graham Thompson
saying, Jarl's ongoing
pasta discussion is further proof
that British cuisine is a joke.
How does that make you feel?
Go fuck
yourself, 15 year old.
And Simmy's
boy actually said, what the fuck
are box pasta and frozen pasta?
Paster comes in bags, what the fuck?
and yeah
well sometimes it comes in boxes
I think it's an American thing
because pasta is just
you're buying bags
yeah sometimes it's in
carbo boxes
but I don't know what
this frozen pasta
bullshit is all about
and you can't
you can't insult
fucking English cuisine
when Americans stick
fucking pasta
well we don't know
where this person is from
yeah we don't know
where this person's from
true
guarantee
also I don't like
this thing about British cuisine
it's like
We were talking about when you get home from work and you want to cook or something.
And when you're a busy person or a busy life and so,
I'm just going to make some dinner quickly.
You know, I want to get it done.
I don't want to make a, like, I don't want to have like a half an hour prep,
and then an hour and a half a fucking around at a stove for every dinner that I have.
So, oh yeah, just make your own pasta.
It's easy.
How does this talking about what pastas we prefer?
Like, how does that suggest that British cuisine is bad?
Also, it suggests that...
What do they think we eat?
What do they think we eat?
It's just plain pasta.
Beans.
Plain pasta and baked beans, yeah.
I mean, regarding this food debate thing, the other one of note was the brief cake versus ice cream debacle, which...
It went down to a vote on the jar media Twitter.
And it was obvious who was going to win.
Lesbue Bill. So ice cream. Ice cream was 60%
K is 40%. Ice cream wins again, baby.
Yeah, we were right. Yeah.
It doesn't deserve it. Yes, it does. Ice cream's incredible.
Yeah, the question simply was which. No, no, nothing else to explain like what was being asked, but...
Which? Ice cream.
Definitely. Always going to be ice cream. Yeah, clearly, uh, we're in the minority, James,
unfortunately with that one.
more cake for us
yeah
who needs shit ice cream anyway
who needs shit
to base Tesco basics
vanilla ice cream
let's do some topics
I want to start with this one
because it's just
it's a core jar media
kind of topic that being
a trailer for a new movies
come out
an anticipated sequel
I hope you guys not talking about Venom 2 have we seen this
yeah I've seen the trailer yep we've all seen the trailer yep so we're all
fan-gasming like pretty through the roof right I've already edited four fan cams
I couldn't believe this in 2007 or I guess it'd be more like say 2010 YouTube
remember all those fan edits where like people put a filter over the venom footage
and made it red so then it looked like it was carnage
we don't need to watch those anymore because we're just getting it now
Woody Harrison's playing him and it's going to be emotional
and definitely really cool
and the action's going to be so sick
I actually think Woody Harrison is a good
casting choice for him he looks creepy
as that you know just as a dude
I mean like he's a good actor in the same way
Tom Hardy's a great actor
but it's like
what's the full name again like Venom 2
Monsters Unleashed or whatever
let there be carnage
be carnage
what do you think of that name
awful
but in one hand
I quite like it
because it does just
it's very upfront
it's just like look
this is the
this is the venom movie
of carnage in it
that's all that you need to know
and it's probably all
that the film's going to be about
there's nothing else
that's going to happen
so it's basically
it's like the King Kong
fucking Godzilla movie
it's just so you know
you didn't really need to know
anything about it other than that
yeah yeah it's all explained in the title it seems to just be a comedy day
yeah how do you feel about venom being like it's like an anti-hero i guess in this universe
he's like a wacky anti-hero no don't eat the old lady you eat the candy instead venom
yeah he's barely even anti-hero i don't want to do that though did you like him singing at the
start yeah that was great i just like picturing tom hardy in like the booth like just doing the
Venom voice...
Wait, he does the Venom voice?
I'm pretty sure he does.
It sounds like a...
No way.
Like a boosted version of his voice.
Listen really carefully, yeah.
I guess that makes sense because, you know, the voice would come from him because he's the host, yeah.
And who else would like voice it?
Is there like a classic Venom voice actor that I didn't know?
Yeah, the guy from Spider-Man 3?
Oh, um...
The guy from that 70s show.
Yeah?
Yeah, so I'm glad we'll hype for it.
Yeah, I hope we can see that one at the cinema as well.
The one to, yeah, save cinemas.
I think it is gonna only be in cinemas.
I don't know if they're gonna drop it on digital, like everything else.
How do you think they got Tom Hardy to be in these films?
Um, either loads of money or they somehow tricked him, got some dirt on him.
Like he turned down Suicide Squad to be in Venom and Venom T
I think you're fun in that regard
Maybe he didn't like do enough research and thought it was going to be in the MCU
And he just like didn't realize what he was signing up for
Yeah James, any final thoughts on Venom 2, Carnage Unleashed
I'm very excited I've got high hopes for this movie and I think it's gonna be a
Oscar winning movie
Did you ever see the first one James
No, I just know that one of George did a song for it
So shit man
Oh yeah they did didn't they
Really
Yeah really boring
Yeah
Yeah because that was obviously outclassed by the
True song from that movie
Venom
We're gonna get them
But it's still an RTJ song
So it's still better than the majority
of music theme
Guys it's
It's time for the MassFet
Follow to come out I think
Yeah
The Mass Effect
Legendary Edition came out
Yesterday as of us recording
this
So I've been
Just knee deep in MassFet 1
Which
Was reminding me weirdly of
It wasn't
help him with this groundhog day thing because like the new game coming out being mass
effect one of one of those games that I used to like rinse so much and like I'd if I know any
game series like the back of my hand it's like the mass effect trilogy so I've been playing
mass fat one on the hardest difficulty just rocketing through it because I just know everything
about this game but this new version of it I feel like was being like underplayed and how
much they tinker with it and changed it and improved it because this version is sick i can't believe
how good it's genuinely impressed i was just like oh my gosh this feels like a real game
there's actually like a cohesive like thing going on with the trilogy now if it looks it doesn't
feel necessarily it definitely feels worse than two and three but now that it kind of looks part
of the same thing instead of mass fat one being this weird outcast where it's like yeah the ugly duckling
that was, it was like the foundational experiment.
The swans.
Yeah.
Because it's like, I was really thinking about it, just how ambitious Massifit 1 is specifically.
They clearly didn't know like what they really wanted it to truly be yet.
And it wasn't until 2 where they kind of refined it down.
And it's like the best and worst thing about it because you have this, this crazy establishment of this universe.
I was just thinking about how good like the first, just the first like 30 minutes of mass.
of MassFit 1 are
how much it has to do
and how efficiently it does it
with how much it sets up the world
you have the threat set up
like sarin the whole spectre thing
all the new alien races
and doesn't feel overwhelming
yeah exactly yeah it's crazy
yeah it's actually so clever
that whole universe
and like this is the story beats
in Massifate 1 too
I would go into a bit more
but I feel like breaking down things like
that right as the new version came out would just be antithetical I guess if there are people
jumping on maybe just yeah it's actually a genuinely good story and now that they've they've
adjusted the old archaic gameplay stuff a bit you can at least play it it's very playable it's
very playable now and it's in just the addition of like hit markers and and slightly changing
the way the recoil is sort of isn't is your you the way they demonstrate it to you so that you can
interpret the recoil i guess it's much better i was like equipping different guns and they actually
like felt different and looked different which i don't even remember in massive at one because everything
just felt the exact same i used a burst assault rifle today and i was like was these in the game to begin
with i don't remember there being a burst assault rifle i got like a guest gun that like i remember
that's in two and three but i don't remember yeah being in one and just stuff like that there is stuff
that just does suck
and always sucked
like the
the side mission experiment
stuff with the
like the way they did it in Massa 1 with these like random
planets that you have to survey
I like the idea of that
and the game really does feel expansive
it makes it feel like you're exploring a universe
but when it gets down
as those side quest thing is they're really
bad Mass Effect 1 really fucking boring
and the Mako thing too
they did improve the controls but
made me realize it's not even really the controls of the Mako that's the problem with that
it's where you're going it's worse to be honest they put you in so many environments that are
ridiculous terrains with these like really vertical hills just everywhere tiny vertical hills and
it's like really awkward to traverse around in some of the maps and that's just no fun but
like the main missions there is some awkward shit and
there that makes it feel like it is from the year it's from but i just i just think i've cleaned it up
so well and i'm so impressed with what they've done with it and i'm like really excited to go through
the whole thing now because i've heard one is that is the standout in terms of like it's obviously
aged the worst because it's just the oldest and by the time you get to three apparently on this
version it's almost looks so good it might as well be like a new game sort of level so
I played them all last year even
I just didn't finish three
but you know like last time
with MassFit 1 I had to
I played it through but then I had to get someone
I had to just like download a save
because I didn't want to play MassFit 1 twice
to get to the highest level and so it was kind of a
disjointed experience for that reason
so playing one knowing that I'm actually
going to keep this character now
and I'm not just going through the motions
and then downloading a save at the end because I was like
I want to play it makes sense
and they're all like linked with the like the galactic readiness apparently applies to all three games now
so there's actually like a link mechanic like just the way it's packaged makes way more sense
makes it also the um the new like bio the other bioware like logo like splash logo thing they have
it's actually really nice just like yeah you know it's nice for them to just i know that i guess
depending on the game that are different characters but i feel like it's you know
bio way should really be playing to their strengths and you know it's like yeah commander shepherd
his whole bullshit or in a weird way it was almost annoying me because I was like oh man
yeah this is why I liked them this was this was biowat to me no wonder I was like so
into this and this whole thing and like why did they abandon this formula because I feel like
Mass VAT 1 that that formula like they hadn't nailed it by the end of MassFet 3 there's
still more room to go they could have improved that but instead they went back to the
drawing board I guess and abandoned it
So they didn't realize what they had on their hands quite until it was too late.
But yeah, that was that.
So it does feel like a new experience.
Like I was saying, I played it last year, but this is, I'm like okay with playing it again right now.
Like I'm genuinely enjoying it.
None of it feels like a chore because I am pleasantly surprised by what they did to it.
It's not just, oh, it's 4K now and the lighting's a bit better.
There's way more to it than that.
It's actually deserving of the title of Legendary Edition.
It actually deserves that.
Skyrim, Legendary Edition doesn't deserve that.
Just the environments and lighting and character models being updated helps so much with just like navigating through the levels
Because I remember like just never knowing like what I was shooting at really or like what the fuck was going on in the combat of the first game
It's like such chaos, but now you can actually like engage a bit more and it's still the funny quirks like the the charging enemies are funny and there's those like geth things that pounce around are like
the most annoying fucking enemies
on the harsh difficulty
but
it's quite satisfying
as a tactical shooter now actually
yeah when you're using all the like
abilities and stuff it's
pretty fun
does anyone got any food
I'm gonna die
meat back on the fire
meat is on the fire right now
so
Jim are you uh
well you can eat that
my expectations
were partially so low for this
mass fit one thing
because I just kind of gotten used to Jim
just ragging on MassFit 1
but don't get your expectations high
it's going to be shit bro
I've been defending it the whole time from Jim
he's just like shit
I'm saying
pricking your ears or anything
yeah go on you little hater
go on I'm looking at you
from what I've seen
I mean
I don't like the way it looks
no you can't go off YouTube clips
you have to play it
Like, it does, it does look wrong.
Play it, I know again, that's, like, on a Discord stream.
It doesn't look how it's been.
You have to see it yourself, genuinely.
Can't even stream it in 60 frames for you.
But nothing could make me want to play that game again.
It's too well.
Should.
Take it, dip your toes in.
Go on.
Wiggle them around.
Nah, because I was watching Ruben do one of those things.
He's fighting a big squid on a...
Threshamor.
On a planet that's just barren.
And that's the side stuff you don't have to do it.
That is the side stuff.
You can just go through the main missions, no worries.
Nah, I don't know.
There's something about playing games like that
where I feel as though I have to do all that shit.
I get it.
Yeah, because you're like, what if I won't get enough paragon,
right?
I'll miss out on a tiny throwaway line of dialogue and two
about something I didn't want.
And then,
I've played through the game,
twice before and that my problem with mass fact one has never been the way it looks
I quite like its weird visual style late that game kind of had like grit and
an ugliness to it that I I feel like added to the character of it the first one
they did slap film grain all over the fucking thing yeah yeah but like um the
the Normandy was like really dark on the interior it was like a horrible bowels of
ship like you know just military of a thing you know had yeah which is something i thought was kind of
cool but like i don't know from what i've seen in the remaster it doesn't it doesn't look like
that and like yeah i don't know it part of it as well as knowing how mass effect three ends
and where the series goes being andromeda i don't want to get invested into something that i know
is going to let me down.
I see, I've...
You can disregard that andromeda.
Yeah, I've grappled of that,
like, that psychological block already
where it's like, I just sort of have my own thing.
I'm like, you know what?
It must with three may end in a weird place,
but Citadel is pretty fantastic,
so that...
Yeah, with three...
Yeah, I never actually played that.
The DLC makes a difference.
Yeah, the deal C is really good.
The way I wrap my head around it
is that I just, while the ending is disappointing,
like, the journey of that third game
does have a lot of...
the beats like from a satisfying third story that you'd expect and want anyway that are like
genuinely really good it does just fall apart towards the end um which does suck but and the extended
version didn't help last time i remember playing it but i think that's the last time i've actually
seen the ending of mass effect three was playing on the day they released that that update that
fixed it quote and quote that's the last time i've seen it so i've not done it myself either last
Like I was saying, I spent the last year, I just didn't finish three.
Didn't do it.
Yeah, no, because I do the same thing every time I try and play three.
It's like a cycle of like, why do I don't, why do I dislike this game?
Because I like like the way it, like, builds up and there's a lot of cool shit in the game.
There's just a certain point when Troy Baker's character comes in.
It's like that boss part.
He sucks.
He sucks.
That's the part.
It's the fucking bit on the Asari Homeworld.
I always finish that and then I run out of steam.
at that point. I just...
Right, yeah.
I have never liked Mass Effect as much as you guys do.
I don't know why.
I think when it comes to games,
I like more of an emphasis on gameplay.
Right.
Yeah, because of course a lot of it is just conversations.
And if you're not interested in going through,
through because I've just been going through actually listening to the dialogue and yeah and me
I've not been skipping anything this time I've actually been paying attention to the law and shit and
yeah that cut scene with no I can't really say but when they kind of start explaining what the
reapers are and in like mass fat one you don't really know any of it yet so just thinking about it
from that perspective so this is actually like a really cool way of like drip feeding out a story
in making it
build up more and more
well what about you james are you
at all tempted because you always
go on about mass fat one like that's your one
you like the soundtrack games
i actually love the way
the first mass effect just
like the way it shows you the world
and all the the small details
that like feed into mass effect two and three
like i love that
but it played like garbage
but it doesn't now
now it feels fine
play is the
I don't care about two or three
I want to play one
and I want to play one
when it's good
so yeah
so this is what you've been waiting for
yeah
but I'm not painful price for it
is the thing
yeah if you just want one
yeah just wait
I'm just gonna wait
because it might
it might go on game pass
eventually or something like that
so I'm just gonna
I'm gonna wait out
but
Hmm.
I will probably have a good time of it
because I love Mass Effector 1.
Like the whole...
What's that?
I can't remember what the level is.
It's to the later part of the game.
Navaria?
Where you...
It's when you find out about the Reapers.
Yeah, that's...
Yeah, yeah.
That whole soundtrack there,
the whole vibe there is incredible.
And I still have that theme
stuck in my head and I listen to it sometimes.
And it encapsulates everything
that is good.
about Mass Effect, found
the vibe, everything.
I just fucking love it.
It'll be interesting to see how I feel about it
when I do play it, but that'll be for the future.
Jim, we've got to deal with this.
I just remembered another reason
where I don't really like Mass Effect.
That being...
Because I like a good dialogue
system in a game.
But I think the
dialogue system in Mass Effect is
trash.
Wait, the simplification of it, you mean?
The goody option and the baddy option.
Yeah, I don't, I don't, I think, I think that works for like a Star Wars game, but
for a game that's meant to have, like, more depth, it just doesn't really work.
Yeah, and saying that, I was finding the old thing that was kind of, kind of surprising to
me, like, I did a side quest to Mass Effect 1 where Garris, like, he tells you about
this case or whatever that, with this, like, Salarian series.
killer or something and it winds up with you confronting the guy and some weird
freighter that you find and the guy's like he's saying that it's not him but
Garris is insisting it's him so you've got to choose like do you let Garris kill
him do you kill him like do you confront him it's like a cool choice and I was
like oh I don't remember like this in MassFit 1 this is cool yeah I just remember
the stuff that's more like in Mass Effect 2 like for example where you can
like help Garris
kill someone or something
and that is just like a
loyalty mission
yeah his loyalty mission
and that is just like a good option
and a bad option
it's pretty lame
and it doesn't allow for any
player expression
no I think host
Mass Effect 1
they really streamline the RPG elements
while they didn't in Mass Effect 1
yeah one actually I've noticed
on a couple of occasions
just constantly doing
the paragon option can you know you can actually piss people off or you end up making things
worse by being like oh i've got to do the good thing right now and then there are all the the
skill checks in aspect one too which a little bit into the three are way more options that come
of it from the first game but i would say if someone hasn't played any of the mass effects
is a great deal because
they're improved but also getting all the
DLC with the exception of the one
you don't want to play
I think it's a really good bargain
if you just want to experience
Mass Effect's like properly
Yeah it was one of the like remaster
re-releases that needed to be done
because the way it had been released
was so fucked up with the DLC and everything
because then the last time they really
they released the trilogy
it was like all the games
but without the DLC or some bullshit like that
just like so stupid
stupid because Mass Effect has a series, like the DLC is so, it's like essential, I just consider it part of the games.
The best parts of the games are the DLC.
Like, Cosumi, Mass Effect 2 has a whole different vibe and it's really enjoyable.
It's like a different play style and it gives you different things away from the main game.
Shadowbroker.
Shadowbroker is one of the best DLCs ever.
It's actually just incredible.
And then you've got Citadel on Mass Effect 3, which is a...
also really good.
Leviathan,
hugely underrated
DLC.
No one talks about
Leviathan.
Really good.
I actually
have never played
any of the DLCs
for any MassFet game
apart from
like the shitty ones
in MassFet 1.
What?
You've never played
any of the stuff in two?
Yeah,
you never played like Shadowbroker.
No, I never played
any of it.
No, really missing out.
Yeah.
They're so fucking good.
Yeah, Citadel
in particular was like
such an apology for the ending of three.
Yeah.
I think Jamie needs to buy it
and actually play through them all with the DLC.
I think that has to happen now.
I'd be curious on his thoughts
on one and three with the DLC.
You probably know two pretty in and out.
Yeah, but again, I haven't played
the DLC in two either, so...
It's really good, like, yeah.
Yeah, I don't like the pricing.
It's quite a lot for some pretty old games.
See, I thought that too, but I think it's justified when you're just playing the game and you see what it's done to it.
Yeah, I guess it's three games as well.
Yeah.
They've actually done quite a bit to them.
It's just got to respect it.
The length of them is a turnoff for me as well.
They are long.
Yeah, that's a huge time sink.
And I prefer like a sort of 10 hour.
like Resident Evil
yeah
sorry there was just a creature
making some like this
yeah it's fucking horrible
um yeah yeah
because I just recently finished
Resident Evil
and now I'm just
like it
you finished it did you?
Yeah yeah
oh did you like it
I thought it was fucking awesome
oh good
really good ass game
and it sort of got me into
the story more
of Resident Evil
really
all the convoluted bullshit
that's going on
really
I'm like halfway through this two and a half hour video explaining all the lore of that.
Oh funny, I didn't know that that was a thing.
You love to send me that because I've been curious myself.
Yeah.
Because it's so bad shit and the way they like tell the stories is so like disjointed.
You just get like little tiny bits in each game.
Yeah, but also it seems like sort of planned out.
Yeah, yeah, that's what I mean.
That's the most interesting part.
But yeah, the way the mass fact, I'm really,
Resident Evil 8 ties everything together at the end.
Mm-hmm.
Pretty cool.
Yeah, that looks cool.
I've started Resident Evil 8, but I'm really looking forward to playing more of it.
Just Mass Effect kind of.
Mass Effect is Mass Effect, and it.
Mass Effect's one of my safe games.
You know, I feel safe playing Mass Effect.
It's a comfort.
It's a nice, like, oh, yeah.
Good old Mass Effect.
Always count on you.
Right, unless anyone else has anything to add about Mass Effect to Resent Evil or whatever,
we'll back after these messages.
Yo, how it is, cuz?
JAR Media shirts.
Go check them out.
Description below.
Cheers, bro.
In it.
Welcome to the second half of the corn
where we answer questions
from the JARMedia subreddit.
Head over to the suggestion thread
if you want to ask us anything you like.
86, the Stakes, it's going to start us off.
How many James clones, unarmed,
would it take to defeat a 20-foot-long alligator?
Hungry?
Question mark. I guess they're saying that alligators hungry at the same time, but I feel like either way, it's still quite intimidating and scary.
Easy.
Two.
I've seen wild boys. You just hold them up from the from underneath their head, and you stab it in the chest.
They do specify to defeat it, though, is the thing. So you need to, like, wrestle with it.
If you can't bite me, then the rest of the clones will just rip out its insides.
You said two, though. So there's only one of the clone?
Yeah, easy.
No, but it's 20 foot long.
Yeah.
As I think about when like Steve Irwin is like putting down a crocodile,
he's holding it down to do some, you know, whatever you would do to them.
Like how many of Jameses would it require to hold down an alligator to, you know,
make it submit or whatever?
Well, it depends on, um, on James, really.
Yeah, that's the question.
Just how many Jameses is required.
because I would estimate
7 or 8
with a couple
you know
in the background
just in case
something goes wrong
I'm going to say 5
so you're going to have
no weapon no yes
I'm going to say 10 points
I missed
I missed the thing
is actually fighting
and I've just been trying to work it out
the whole time
a 20 foot long alligator
oh
I think it depends on
is it just like
is this like trying to think like the absolute minimum like you know a number of Jameses will die but they'll get it done yeah okay
like a safe number a number you feel secure and you know that and on 20 foot long alligator but it's going to be so like if it's proportional as well there's going to be quite a it's going to be a big fucking alligator it's going to be it's going to be so strong as well compared to just like a normal six foot human
I'm saying, you know, like, two lady dimitresses, they could get it done.
But I think for, like, normal human beings who aren't proportionally massive as well,
I'm thinking seven, I'm thinking seven or eight James clones.
Okay.
No, it would be six if it was post-Starboxer.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
Tan Lank has one for us.
Hey, Gooners, this is a discussion me and my friends were having a few weeks ago.
I'd love to hear your input.
You can fight multiple rounds with Mike Tyson.
And in each round, he's one year older,
starting from when he was a baby.
For every round you win, you get a million pounds.
You don't get to take any breaks between rounds.
How many rounds do you think you could last for?
Slash, when would you back out?
Cheers.
Okay, so...
I feel like, you know, once I've done, like, beating the shit out of a, you know,
zero-year-old to ten-year-old,
I've got $10 million dollars pounds
I don't need to keep watching a child
You know I don't really smashing the fuck out of a kid
I feel like I couldn't take on
A nine year old Mike Tyson
So I'm going to say eight
The difference between eight and nine is huge
He started
He started boxing at 18
This question's fucking dumb
Start at 18
I would
Yeah that's more fair
That makes more sense
Because then it's actually a challenge
Because you actually have to get your ass kit
Yeah you get
fucking obliterated.
Yeah, but then I wouldn't survive one round.
Yeah, exactly.
I don't know how to box.
I reckon I would try two years
and just take it just for the reward, you know?
Just for two years.
No, but then, no, it depends
because he made his professional debut at 18.
So at 16, he was probably...
He could fuck you up at 16.
Are there, like, pictures of what you look like or anything?
I am.
Like, when you look at the old pictures of the rock and stuff, and it's just like, what?
Looks like 40 when he's 15.
Uh, no, that can't, that, that, no, no, I, I, I googled Mike Tyson, like, 18.
I, I, I, I, I don't believe what I'm seeing.
Is there a picture of him?
He looks fucking whipped.
Oh, no, there's a picture of him from when he was, like, 13 years old,
he's like
yeah
dude
maybe I just do
one year
yeah
nah
he'd
fuck
we can't
because
Mike Tyson's
I go to
comparison
for if
strength
like
none of
fight him
that's not
fair
do you think
all four of us
could take him on
but could he
beat any of us
at Halo 3
no
okay
could he beat me
at Halo 3
when I was
13
no he couldn't
even do it then
I was shit
when I was 13
he's
trained for this. I trained for that.
Do you think he could make
every one of your squad members survive
through a suicide mission? No.
No fucking way. No, I don't think he could do that.
I didn't think he could do that.
He wouldn't be able to get
enough Paragon for the Paragon
check for fucking
what's the name, Jack's Laudity Mission.
You know? He wouldn't be able to do it.
He wouldn't be able to do it.
Yeah, but Mike Tyson's a millionaire because
he would choose Miranda.
And then he wouldn't have Jack's Lourty.
it's the jack would die.
Yeah, I'm looking forward to the new angles
in MassFit 2 that don't show
yeah, I'm curious about that.
Maybe they'll do just one cheeky little one,
just one cheeky little butt shot.
Just one cheek?
No, she's got to be double shot.
Double cheeked up.
On a Thursday afternoon.
Fucking idiot, you broke our campfire!
Skelly Dude 11 has one for us.
Hi job, boys.
Seeing how much you love Pussy and Willie,
I thought this would be an interesting question for you.
Would you fuck a sex robot?
This may seem like a silly idea for the distant future,
but it's actually been developing over the past couple of years.
Right now they cost thousands, but soon should become relatively affordable.
Sex robots are being designed to bring a better experience than human intimacy
whenever you want.
No need to ask for consent.
Of course, the robots will have AI to talk to you and remember your preferences.
There seems to be a billion dollar industry that will soon.
awaken before anyone knows it. It's quite a weird concept for me to think about so I would
just be interested in your guy's thoughts. Thanks. Well it's kind of fucked up because
the consent thing I feel like it's going to have the inverse effect. It's not going to be
like oh people that would be it's not good because how you look at it. It's like people that
aren't good at understanding consent have fucked the sex robot and then or they are
conditioned into not really understanding the concept of consent after fucking a sex robot.
And then it totally damages the way they view, like, human sexual relationships forever.
Yeah.
Yeah, it could be pretty doom and gloom with that kind of stuff.
But, you know, the early adopters, I guess we can get their thoughts on it, get their reviews.
Yeah, James, how's it been for you?
Shut up.
What if the technology is just undeniably so old?
awesome that it just becomes like just everyone's just has their like their draw with
their little milker in it or whatever the sex robot they're just like hang on just got to
go get milked a minute it's just James if you had a sex robot and you could oh I think why
are you asking me why these questions always directed at me we're posing with anyone with an
anime sexy figurine so if you had an had a sex robot what anime character would you make it
I wouldn't own one
But if you did
You money on car parts
No I know
You money is no object here
No James imagine
You could
You could have a
Like in your car
A milk machine
Yeah
I was gonna say
I'm inappropriate
Yeah
You could just put like a flashlight
In the exhaust
Fung
Why would you fight
No
no I think it I think that the sex robot industry is like porn just gone too far
do you think it's going to take off in our lifetimes though is there going to be
definitely yeah probably definitely I mean porn is already like totally fucking shat all over
the way people think as it is yeah if porn is that damaging how how bad the sex
robots gonna be this is so that would be our thing like man I remember the days when people
people used to like fuck each other and stuff.
Yeah, maybe that is the thing that's like, man, grandpa, you're just so old.
I'm just going to go fuck my robot a few more times.
I don't think sex robots will become mainstream.
Not for like another 50 years.
That's our lifetime.
That's our lifetime, yeah.
People have always been like that with sexual stuff.
Like, it's never been mainstream.
So I can't see if...
Porn is mainstream.
I would say porn is mainstream, yeah.
No, I'm saying porn, no, but I'm on about, like, there's been sexual objects.
Like, fuck machines already exist.
But it's different, because it's not...
It's not an answer.
Yeah, but black doors...
Once you have, like, robots that are way more realistic and responsive, you know, they say things and shit.
Game over.
I think VR is a more likely thing anyway.
But VR's gonna happen. You combine the two. It's just VR.
It's just VR.
Fuck machine.
That's a wedy thing.
Just accept it.
We need to be robots.
Brub 5 has one for us.
On the topic of eagles,
birds have very thin hollow bones,
so even just slapping or whacking them,
especially their wings,
will break them and incapacitate the creature.
You would get injured,
but if you could even land one good hit, you would win.
I wanted to include that
just sort of as a
slight against this one person
that just hates every time we bring up
like animals we can beat in like a fight
or whatever
just this is one person that like
just hates it as a topic
and I just wanted to bring it up for them
no but this is
this is on my side of the eagle debate
yeah
yeah that's why I could be an eagle
but they also said
on pasta
yes the American was right
both pasta sauce and pasta do take
a long time to make but pasta sauce just sits
there in a pot slash pan
simmering away and requiring basically no effort
whereas making pasta is involved
and requiring kneading shaping etc
so in effect the actual time you're
taking to make it is way longer
I think that's actually
the perfect full stop to put on this topic
they kind of put into words
just the breakdown
Instead of just being angry and furious
because we're the ones
having it directed out of us
Oh fuck off, no
Actually
Warlock Wabbit
Has this to say
Do you find yourselves ever making
groaning or sighing sounds
When doing activities that don't require it often
Sitting down, drinking something
stretching, etc
I never paid mind to it at first
But ever since I heard from someone
That it's one of the signs that you're getting older
I notice it more and more
To the point that I wouldn't blame myself
if they slap me for doing that.
Do you guys notice yourself or catch yourself doing that?
The old,
you're sitting down.
You know, like when I stand up, it's like,
I scream.
Yeah.
You gotta verbalise,
and you're like lifting your leg up.
I don't.
Really?
What do you do when you sit down then?
I sit down.
No, I just sit down
I don't
I've never noticed myself make noises
well you're going to be in for a surprise
anyone else have any noises
Ruben what's your noises
um
I don't know I mean
I just sort of I don't
I try not to do it too much
whenever I catch myself doing I'm like
Bro, shut up.
You don't even need to make that noise.
That's usually what I'm thinking.
It's like, just be quiet.
Really?
What about if you're, like, doing a strenuous exercise or something?
You never do the old...
Or something like that.
Really, because, like, if I've got my headphones in,
I'm trying to be quiet.
It's usually just like an exhale.
Like, of like, all, like, you know, through gritted teeth kind of shit.
Yeah.
Or, so whenever I kneel down, I just fart.
Ever you know down.
No exception to that.
I was coming up the stairs yesterday and Paisley was following me and she was just like farting, like almost with the steps.
I'd never heard anything like it.
It was fucked.
Triple Joe has a question that made me laugh out loud when I read it.
A couple Swindon questions.
Will you guys ever do as Swindon as bad as they say?
But more importantly, if you guys hate Swindon so much, why does it seem like you're always there?
like do you go there for holiday or sabbatical or something
we haven't been to swindon in
this year
no i guess they're just speaking like broadly
ignoring the like pandemic and stuff
oh no um barely actually
you know guess what i missed the question
i was distracted well you're fucking fired get the fuck out here
look i'm sorry i was posting something on the chat media reddit as we were speaking
I'm sorry
I read it
is so fucking fucked
the rules
just the rules
like they've changed the cover
to be
goon
just a massive
or the movie poster
I guess it must be
like the cropped
title for it or whatever
just there
and then our rules
like when I was posting
it shows you like what the rules are
and it's just like
It's the tick-old bitsy's lyrics
And then just at the end
A man where the fuck is married you
It's still there
It just really got me
Your fucking shit it's
So yeah
You should post questions on it
Piddle Knob has this to say
Hi Mingers I was wondering what you thought
About Pokemon being dibbies
Are all Pokemon dibs by default
Or does some escape being dibs
By virtue of being gross
Like muck
or Garbadour
or not cute enough like
Ray Quasar, I guess it's Ray Quaser
or Garados, thoughts
Um
Pokemon are kind of the go-to
like Dibby, aren't they?
The Pikachu
but I haven't really thought about it.
They're not all Dibbys.
Did we dedicate an entire section
of an episode to going through
the Pokemon generations
to talk about dibbiness?
No, we're just talking about
ones we liked. It wasn't anything
to do bivis.
but the answer is there are a hell of a lot of them but there are ones that aren't not I guess yeah just assume they are unless they are like a dragon thing or like me i'd say it's about 50 50 yeah because they're with Pokemon designs they either they're going for cute or they're going for cool you know yeah yeah those are the two like types of Pokemon designs so yeah the goad has one for us your last comment about
history in the last 100 years got me thinking. I'm a university student and I've spoken to a lot
of innovators and people in the engineering industry. And what a lot of them are saying is that we're
actually progressing in terms of technology a lot slower now than we were in the 1900s.
All the latest tech coming out, 3D printers, supercomputers, driverless cars, lasers, VR, augmented
reality are actually all technology that has existed in some primitive form during the 70s or 80s.
We are developing very few new innovations that are instead kind of designing a lot more improved versions of technology that already exists.
If you look at sci-fi movies during the mid to late 1990, uh, during the mid-late 1900s, they always show future technology that is far more advanced than what we tend to have when their fictional time periods become reality.
Back to the futures 2015 and Blade Runner's 2019 are good examples.
Whereas the future is envisioned by people during the early.
the 1900s was actually less advanced
in those futures than they
actually came about. Just something interesting
I thought you guys would like to know that perhaps
during our lifetimes they might run out of ways
to innovate and improve our technology.
What do you think companies would do when this
happens? Would they
do a lot more cosmetic changes to our
technology to make it look more new and
advanced than it actually is? Or could it even
potentially result in the collapse of our current
world order? There are a lot of heavy thoughts
but I'm curious to know what you guys
think to see where the word is going in the next
50 years or so. Let's break, let's break this down. There was bigger technological growth in the
1900s because of World Wars because of the Cold War and World War II. That's where technology
advances because we want to kill each other. 22,000's, there's not been a war on that scale.
Hence why technology hasn't advanced as much as people would have fought back in the 1900s.
You've got to apply some pressure and the current pressure that we have is like, yo, fossil fuels,
like we're going to be careful about that
because we're going to maybe run out
and you know maybe
make the planet too hot
so look out for that
that's like our current pressure
and no one seems to be reacting to it
so
you know until it's like
five you know until a city gets like
swallowed or some shit
and I mean anything's going to happen
yeah no humans
humans are like
we live at 5%
when there's a war or disaster
we live at 100%
everything gets done at the 100%.
Climate change is horrifying
but we'll fucking fix it last minute.
Yeah, and loads of people have to die first as well.
Yeah.
That's kind of how technology's advance.
It's how we do things, man.
It's quite a hard thing to quantify the
technological advancements.
Because even though we are just improving
what we already have
without innovation,
They're being improved at a pretty ludicrous rate.
Well, nuclear fusion is like, we're progressing with that quite well at the moment.
Like, we've talked about that.
Like, that's fucking progress that could change history.
Like, we're not, like, not doing anything.
We're constantly improving.
It's just not on the same scale because of just context.
Yeah, we should start a new war to make a technology,
improve. Yeah, how does one
stumble across new technology?
I guess it's something you can't really stumble across
space. Yeah, unless it is like
Mass Effect where you find it on Mars
or whatever. You just find the next tech.
Which is another awesome thing about
no, it's spoilers but yeah
for MassFit, but
yeah, I don't know, I guess I never really
thought about that the way
that is an interesting way of refining tech from
Yeah, that it's been around for a while.
Yeah, I guess I don't know what a new technology would be even,
like conceptualizing it.
I'm too dumb for that.
What about some sort of robot we could fuck?
Yo, and then maybe...
No, I think that's too much, actually.
What about robots that fuck each other and have babies?
Yo!
And feel emotions and stuff.
Yeah.
And have little pet robot dogs.
It's a good idea.
The one Croatian jar fan.
That's one.
Hello JAR Media Corncast.
I'm the only Croatian Jalding and I want to know.
What are your opinions on Ubisoft and their efforts to milk all of their popular properties?
As someone who played most Far Cry games, I like them all, but not a single one improves on the last.
Do you think making the same game again and again
with a new coat of paint is acceptable
or even moral in any way?
I think their games are quickly becoming like the FIFA franchise
but I also have hope that they will learn
and do you think beyond good and evil two
will be any good if it ever comes out?
If you ever wore a tie, you can thank Croatia.
Okay.
Thank you, Croatia.
Thank you, Croatia.
Next question.
Okay, so I think that
Fire Cry, the weird thing is, like you were
saying that they come out, you know, so much like the FIFA games, except it takes
something like three years to make one. It's like, this is really mediocre. Why did this
take so long? Well, like they've been running these series for like so long now. There's like
eras of like franchise now. Like Assassin's Creed has gone through different eras. You know,
there's like the Etsio era. There's the boat games era. And now I guess we're in the
generic historical whatever map eras.
light RPG loot kind of mechanics now and like XP systems and shit
single player live services whereas it used to be just sort of a basic open world like
action kind of game with a bit of stealth in there but yeah it's the reason I stopped
giving a shit about Ubisoft a long time ago whenever they do you remember the head
started saying yeah we don't want any game that can be released so we don't want any
game that can be released that isn't part of
like a franchise or whatever and that was the moment I stopped caring about Ubisoft
because they stopped releasing like the Rayman games and those cool like valiant hearts
and all the interesting shit they were doing they just stopped doing it um once I think
Ubisoft are currently the worst like big publisher out of all the main ones yeah potentially
you think they're worse than like Activision um at least like modern warfare was pretty fun
Hmm
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, I don't
I don't know a single shit about
Ubisoft anymore
I just don't
I used to be into
Assassin's Creed
and thought Far Cry 3
was really good
Yeah
Are you gonna get
The Guillemé del Toro
Farcray 6
Or
Guillemot del Torre
You mean Gus
Just brings
No
The last Far Cry I played
Was 4
And I thought it was pretty boring
Firecrow 5
was pretty shit
I thought 5 had that
awful villain that Troy Vega voice
for some reason. Yeah, Troy Baker voiced
an Asian dictator.
Yeah, what was that about?
What?
You couldn't find a single Asian actor.
Like, that's how you won up Vass.
Wow.
Okay.
Pagan men.
Yeah, that's a name
that sounds like it should have Troy Baker's
voice.
Wait, that's like multiple Asian characters he's played then.
Because he did, in Mass Effect, he plays like an Asian super soldier guy.
Weird.
It's true, yeah.
Wait a minute.
It's Troy Baker.
Hey, Lang, Kai Blang.
Yeah.
Wait a minute.
Yeah.
And then he's snowing, Final Fact, what is happening?
Wait a minute.
My boy, Troy.
Final Fantasy, are they Asian or not, you know?
I never know.
I can never tell her.
because they just look like anime characters
so I don't know what that means
what race is anime is it
Asianified
it's like Asian
Westernified Asian or Asianified Western
depends how you look at it
Yeah
Let's do this one from
Movies Music Me
We're re-listened to the cast
And I notice something that's just pissing me off
All right
James stop saying I'm not a gamer
It's been years of this going on
I'm already up to the corn stage
On this re-listen
and you need to come to
terms with it. Other members please encourage him to come to terms with who he is. James,
you are a gamer. Thanks Wings. How? No, no. You are a gamer. You are a gamer. James,
you know who the gaming merchant is, you're a gamer. You're a gamer. You're on fire again.
Do you watch the gaming merchant Apex breakdown videos?
Answer me. No, we've gone over this. You're a gamer.
No, do you?
Gamer. We've gone over this. Gamer. When I, when I say,
what do you think you think of someone whose main hobby is gaming yeah yeah
Mike that's not mine I'm not a gamer so I'm a game of no it's not about like specific
like time like if you have two hobbies and if one hobby you do more that means
the other one doesn't count doesn't work like that everyone who plays a game's a
gamer no it's different it's different but you do go on and you play OPEX for like
two to three hours every day.
I'm casual fucking gamer.
Yeah, you're still a gamer, though.
No, I disagree.
You're a gamer.
I'm not a gamer.
I would say all of us here right now are gamers.
Yeah, all gamers.
No question.
For me, I'm just a racist.
Just, yeah, different levels of intensity of gamer, you know?
Is a game of a hardy-oh?
Oh, fuck.
A gamer.
Chippo Hippo one has one.
I probably should have put in the section earlier, but it is just regarding the
this expanding services thing. You're talking about live services expanding until death, but you failed
to mention CS Go. Just wondering what your opinions are. That's a game that stayed practically the
same since launch and hasn't been affected for than skins by one million plus daily players.
Personally, I've sunk almost 5k hours and it's fundamentally the same game from when I started playing,
what your opinions on this game thanks gamers
I it's a tough one to like analyze
CSCO because it's such a like
it's such a tight concept
that they've never they've never had any reason
to reinvent it particularly they never
changed anything about it and maybe that's
what it is it's just the balls
of it because I play it and I'm like man
this is an archaic piece of shit
but they've been so defiant over like
20 years I'm just like no we're not going to change it
fuck you and people are just like okay
and they just like it and they just like
it, yeah. It does seem to be the exception to the rule, though.
Yeah. I don't know if I'd call it a live service, though.
Yeah, I'm not sure. It's not really, because it doesn't have major content updates. It just has
skins. Yeah, it's like so old, like, it's from before that era when they'd even design
like new games to be addictive in the way. I guess it just nailed that gameplay loop and
everyone just loves just replaying it endlessly.
Canned manned sand can do one of our last ones here
Hi jar, homies. I was wondering what everyone's opinion was on the Roadman accent.
It seems like it's been everywhere in the last year or so.
Every, especially in memes and the British side of TikTok.
All my mates have started saying shit like,
Ra, say nothing, G, etc.
An NGL, it's crept into the way I've talked by osmosis, lull.
I've heard some people say it's goofy as hell accent. Cheers boys.
you're racist if you call it goofy
first of all
yeah don't be racist
yeah don't be racist not cool
it's a cool accent
it's just
it's the most cringe thing when people
who don't have the accent
like pretend they have it
like there's like a sect of people
that do that and that shit
do a roadman accent
I can't
ask who you can
I can't
I'm not doing it
you always do the ting thing
I'm just like well I suck you mumble
I'm not doing that
I just keep saying, like, cringly shit that no one really says.
I just keep saying stuff.
It's like old references to, um, uh,
just like the grime thing of like, it's,
I can't even think what it is.
It's a JME song where he just tells him, like,
suck to your great,
grand for your dad's bassy crease, rude boy.
Yeah, so, thank you.
You gotta say it clearer?
Suck your dead great gran
for your dad's bassy crease,
boy.
That would be a great
title if it wouldn't be instantly flagged.
Alex, you do a
roadman accent for us then.
Just for the people.
Righty ho, bro.
Righty-ho, ting.
No, I do say ting
quite a bit. That's worked as well
into my vocabulary.
Because it's
say nothing or say less.
That's the one you just say, I'll say less.
Even I felt that one
like creeping in
and I try not to
speak out
like you know
in an affected way
because I'm like
that's just not
what my accent is man
it just sounds
ridiculous if I say
shit like that
yeah but proper tingo
bro
shut up
shut up
shut up
shut up
mr of sims

Wait what

The second one, it's already happening,
we've already got the second one before the first one.
It's unprecedented.
We're getting the second movie before the first one.
It's going to be a masterpiece.
Yeah.
It's going to be a fucking awesome film.
No, they've convinced me.
This film is just going to be good.
It's going to be funny.
It's going to be emotional.
It's going to win Oscars.
It's going to be awesome.
It's going to win at least one Oscar.
I'm saying that now.
I guarantee it.
I bet big money.
I bet on James's batty crease.
Toby Rabbit has one.
Hey fellas, you jokingly call each other the HALO Follower sometimes.
Is this in reference to the Halo follower channel?
I accidentally stumbled across their
Why is Quartana naked video a few days ago?
Loll, it seems like a lot of people are not too keen on the channel.
Thoughts?
Yeah, that is lie.
is why, it's because of their channel.
And like, yeah, it's pretty
shit.
Can we say that?
What are your thoughts on Halo follower, James?
Difficult one.
I think his video production
is really good. I think he's got a really great
personality and he's quite lovable.
But Halo's fucking shit.
No, you can't just make it.
That wasn't the question.
The question was about Halo follow.
The problem with Halo followers
that he's following Halo.
No, he made destiny follower.
I'm going to let you guys in onto a little tip bit.
You're the Halo follower.
No, but I nearly was the Halo follower.
He used to like,
no, I wasn't really the Halo follower.
He used to, like, you could, like, apply to do the voiceovers
because I guess it's not his biggest strength.
The voiceovers in his videos or whatever.
So I, like, nearly recorded one.
because I was like wanted to be on the Halo Follower channel.
This is before I had my own channel, I think.
But I never followed through on it because I was too scared.
Wait, what? No, Halo Follier was after your channel.
Really?
No, he made Halo F follower for like Halo 4, didn't he?
Yeah, it was Halo 4.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wait, so you could have been the Halo follower.
I could have been the Halo follower.
Damn.
That's the name of the appellor.
episode then.
I could have been the
Halo follower, question mark.
Yeah, and then have a picture of the halo
follower doing a poll place.
Yeah, doing a podcast. Exactly.
Let's end on this one from the
other Jamie.
Question for the Metal Gear followers.
You've previously
expressed a fondness for the Phantom
Pain, but what are your opinions on the
shortcomings of the game? Obviously
it's blatantly unfinished.
Hashtag fuck Konami. But I personally
feel that the game also has balancing
issues. Objectively, the best load out is two stun weapons, usually rifle and pistol,
the sneaking suit, since it reduces foot noise and the camoes don't offer enough to use them
over the sneaking suit, and D-Dog with the stun knife so that nearby enemies are spotted,
which is a passive ability rather than quiet spot everyone on this specific area move.
The game punishes you for killing, so why would you use any other load-out?
This could be okay if ammo management was a concern and maybe you were forced to use enemy
weapons when running out of ammo, but you can airdrop ammo at nearly any point in time for
very little cost. Venom Snake is just two op. This isn't to say that MGSV is a bad game. It's a
very good game that I sunk many hours into, and Skull Face is a great meme of a character
anyway. Which Metal Gear Solid games are the cast of Madagascar? Don't answer that bit. Just answer the first
bit. Um, I mean, it's true. Yeah, it's definitely true. But, um, go away. Shut up.
off don't you say that I'll be taking no further questions it's the first game I found
um and it it's always kind of annoyed me when I've heard other people say this shit
but like make your own fun apply your own restrictions and you know fuck with the
sandbox like there's a reason um donkeys videos are so good because he always
fucks of the sandbox he's just a creative guy yeah and it really
if you
there's not much point in the game
in like
doing everything perfectly
like if you're chasing the
S ranks or whatever then yeah sure
but if you just want to
jump into this open world
with these dudes you can fuck with
like have a good time
just do it man
because when I've been playing it
like I
wasn't taking all the OPEs
shit. I was
intentionally making the game
somewhat harder.
And on top of that, I don't think
any of the
Metal Gear games have been
particularly well balanced.
No, I was thinking that. I was like,
two and three, where I was like, all you would
really use is like, well, I was watching
a video today and it's like, there's just so much
dumb shit that you can exploit in those
games. It's never been about, it's just
been about knowing and just doing it all, or deciding
not to, or just deciding to do the silly
thing that gets you through the game quickly, or maybe not quickly, but effectively.
Yeah.
Yeah, I definitely prefer if the game was more balanced, and it would make it a better game.
But also it makes it more accessible for people that aren't so inclined to do the big brain plays.
Maybe they'll do like a Snyder cut.
that game one day.
Oh, could you imagine?
We're gonna do it, we're gonna finish Metal Gear.
The Schneider cut of Metal Gear Solid 3.
Also, Metal Gear Solid 5 not being finished.
It's because it's a phantom pain.
You know, it's not finished, and you wish it was there, but it's not there.
But it feels like it's there.
Yeah, there's so much shit that you can read deep into with,
like every Metal Gear game, but especially five.
That's cool.
I hadn't thought about that.
yeah
yeah a lot of
fanboys argue
that it was
intentionally unfinished
I feel like he
I don't think it was so much
it was intentionally but I feel like
Kojima possibly knew from the start
yeah
they weren't going to let him finish it
and so he planned for that
in a way where I don't know
he just planned for it and he made sure the game
could be sort of as finished as finished
in all the right places you know to be a fucking game
before I got taken away from him
well motherfuckers man
motherfuckers do you like Mount Goosello 5 Alex
I mean I've got nothing against it
I've always thought it looks fun
a fun sandbox
I'm not that interested in playing at the
I think that's it folks
