Starting point is 00:00:00 Yo, what's up? Welcome to Kind of Funny First Impressions. I'm one of your host, Blessing at AOA Jr. joining me is Twitch.tv slash Andy Cortez. Andy, how are you doing? Just sipping on some on some Coke energy, waiting for Coke gaming to come by the stream. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:00:23 Waiting for Coke gaming. Can't wait. Can't wait. Of course, this is kind of funny first impressions. Each episode, we join you to talk about new and exciting games that we're able to get our hands on. You can access it live right here on Twitch. slash kind of funny games. Right, Barrett, we're live, right?
Starting point is 00:00:37 We are alive. I don't know. Maybe you'll never know. You'll never know. We'll never know. Or later on YouTube.com slash kind of funny games and on podcast services
Starting point is 00:00:45 around the globe on the gamescast's feed. Today, we're playing Bleeding Edge, specifically the closed beta that's out for the Xbox 1. Now, Andy, both me and you got codes for this. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:00:57 I've not touched it yet. I don't even think I've seen gameplay of Bleeding Edge. Now that I think about it. Have you gotten to play it at all? No. So I guess it unlocked today, right? Because that's when I started seeing the tweets.
Starting point is 00:01:10 Yeah. Hey, it's now open. Everybody jump in if you have access to the closed beta. Now, I did get to watch our good friend, Twitchiot TV slash Sancho West. Oh, the homie. And it looks very much like a more of a third person view moba. Like, you know, everybody's fighting with melee and stuff and you need to have healers. You want to make sure that you are kind of, you want to make sure you're just.
Starting point is 00:01:35 Dungling in the middle row or whatever those goddamn League of Legends dorks talk about. I went and I looked up descriptions of this game just to make sure I have everything right and correct for the show. And I saw Mova come up and I was like, certainly that's wrong. But you're telling me that that's accurate. I mean, it's not a top-down view. It doesn't look like Dota. It doesn't look like League of Legends. Is it more of like a Battleborn kind of deal?
Starting point is 00:01:54 It kind of has those characteristics. Yeah. From third-person view, there's all these different heroes or legends or whatever the hell we want to call these edges. Bleeding edges. Bleeding edges? Leading edgeman. Oh, man. Bleeding edges sounds wrong.
Starting point is 00:02:08 That sounds really terrible. Edging and just blood and stuff. Yeah, so there's a bunch of different heroes you can select from. Again, I don't know exactly what they call them, but we're going to hop into the training. This is a little bit more, this is a weirder first impressions, but I was talking to Barrett earlier, because normally when we do one of these, either of us have played before, and we know things to talk about, or we know when to point out, oh, so this is a cool thing. That way audio listeners can kind of get a grasp on what we're talking about.
Starting point is 00:02:39 But we're just jumping in blind here, man. Yeah, this is coming in fresh. We are Blind Fury right now. To lay out some game facts for you guys, right? The game releases March 24th, 2020. I think it did do like an alpha early access thing. Really? Like a few weeks after E3, yeah, because remember that being a big push.
Starting point is 00:02:54 And I was interested in this game because I love Ninja Theory. Ninja Theory is the one who develops this, right? In Ninja Theory, they do games such as Hellblade. They do, they've done enslaved, what you could call it, Odyssey to the West, whatever that game's called, right? Heavenly Sword, DMC, Devil May Cry. They've done games that mainly Hellblade and DMC are the ones that I've played and enjoyed, right? I love Hellblade. And so Ninja Theory is a studio I really like, and I like the direction and all this stuff.
Starting point is 00:03:17 This is a weird game for them because this is multiplayer. This is, like you said, like Mova-ish, right? It has, I've heard it analogized to Overwatch, right, in some ways. It's essentially a melee Overwatch. Yeah, right? And so I've had a fascination with this game, but I've not really taken the time to really look into it and dig into it, right? I've been kind of waiting before I jump in so I can come with everybody else. And so, again, published by Xbox Game Studios, Developed by Ninja Theory.
Starting point is 00:03:42 And then, yeah, right here we have the combat basics. Keep calm and hit things. I'm waiting for, Barrett has to adjust some stuff for us. Are we already on that screen, by the way, Barrett? They can see gameplay, yeah. Oh, tight, okay, cool, cool, cool. That's right, because we were recording this a little bit differently. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:57 So let's see what the hell this is about. I'm using my Xbox Elite 2 Series 2 That I bought it a couple weeks ago Feels so good Already I think this game looks Cool So it looks very much like Borderland
Starting point is 00:04:12 It's got this sort of It's not cell shaded But every character has sort of an outline on it Yeah So I don't know who this character is Head and hit jump Okay, I've jumped before in games The characters move kind of like
Starting point is 00:04:25 Sunset Overdrive a little bit Yeah, yeah I could see that, yeah Beautiful visuals. Have that like animated? Yeah, this game looks awesome. So right here, just a little insider game development knowledge, what you want to do with these maps right here, blessing. This map has more specularity, thus making it look like water. But it's not really water.
Starting point is 00:04:43 It's just all fake. Oh, inside game dev knowledge for you guys. Wow. Yeah. Specularity maps making stuff look like metal, making stuff look like stone. Every fighter has a basic attacks. You can before combos. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:58 All right. I mean, you're a big fighting game fan Plus, so I feel like once you get your hands on this, you're really gonna dig it. No, yeah, I love games that are super mechanical, right? Anything that can get in, like, Devil May Cry, like Near, like stuff that has combos and stuff that has...
Starting point is 00:05:12 How good is Neer Man? Oh, dude, you played Neer Automata? I did, yeah. I did the... I did like, one and a half playthroughs. Yeah. And then I was like, okay, I don't want to keep doing playthroughs.
Starting point is 00:05:21 I'm just going to watch them YouTube videos. It's one of those things where the structure of it, I understand why they did it the way they did it because you kind of have to get through that second play-thru to really understand certain things about the story. And then once you get to play through like 3, 4, 5, or endings, what comes after? C, D and E, right?
Starting point is 00:05:39 Once you get to the later endings, the game branches off totally differently. You're not doing the same thing, but yeah, dude, NIR is such a good game, but we're playing Bleeding Edge. So I went to their website and pulled some, I wanted to see how they talk about the game, right? And so they have in Big Phon here.
Starting point is 00:05:54 It's a... Looks like Gizmo wants to make things interesting. Interesting. This is a good opportunity to evade. Okay, so they still... Looks like the teaching as a dodgerl. Teaching you some things, yeah. So they describe as a 4V4 team fighter, right?
Starting point is 00:06:10 When they say experience one-of-a-kind multiplayer that fuses combo mechanics with dynamic third-person action, team up and execute powerful, synergized attacks to become an unstoppable force in the face of your enemies. Freeze falls in time, control minds, ride missiles, and unleash electrifying guitar solos in a fast-paced, yet strategic combat system that rewards technique, timing, and teamwork. And all this sounds, it sounds appealing to me.
Starting point is 00:06:36 It does. The only word, the thing I'm worried about is, is this going to be one of those games where it's going to be tough if you don't have a dedicated squad on comms? Because I was talking, I was chatting with Sancha. I was in Sancha West's chat. And he was like, I tried playing solo earlier and it wasn't a great time. Mostly because obviously everybody's still getting to the hang of things. Not everybody knows all of the mechanics.
Starting point is 00:07:00 And he just said, I was getting, I was getting stomped. I was dying nonstop. But then eventually I joined up with some friends and we're all kind of coordinating. Hey, heal me here. It is similar to Overwatch as well where we're going to keep saying Overwatch today. But the arena's the way they were built, there are health packs in dedicated spots. Okay. So if you aren't getting the heels you need, you can possibly try to maneuver yourself and work towards a health.
Starting point is 00:07:26 Yeah, I mean, that's another thing they put out in the website, right? Like another bullet point they have is treacherous terrain. Use your environment to your advantage with deadly arena hazards and gain the upper-handed moments of chaos, yank opponents into a high-voltage electric fence with Buttercup's Buzzsaw, whilst Damon lies stealthily in weight, charge enemy aggressors into the path of an oncoming train with Makudu's shoulder-barge, trapped careless enemies within mave's magical cage, and light a raging fire beneath their very feet. It sounds like the levels that you're playing in are going to be important, right?
Starting point is 00:08:01 Like the environment is going to have an importance to how you approach certain situations. Oh, sure, yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's going to be like most, like any sort of hero-based shooter where certain environments, you know, you would feel more encouraged to pick certain people because they might have abilities that just suit themselves. But really quick while you're talking. Yeah. I didn't really hear much of what you're saying because I was just thinking, follow me. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:08:25 me free. I've had that, so earlier today, obviously, like, I'm wearing, I'm still wearing my Sonic gear. I have my tail hat right here, right? We just got done with Scream Fast, where we talked about Sonic for a full hour, and I've had Escape from the city stuck in my head for the last few hours. Are you liking this? These stuns, dog.
Starting point is 00:08:40 Holy shit. Woo! Fucking follow me. Fucking set me free. I don't know if this is the Xbox 1X in, like, the 4K, but I really like how this game looks. It's likely being abreast of 4K, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:55 Much like other competitive shooters or competitive games where they have that mode where it'll... It'll sort of crisp up. You use attacks. Oh. That's right. Wait. Oh, sick. Okay. So there is an evade bar. Yeah. Oh, okay. Which will get used up.
Starting point is 00:09:15 Whoa. What the hell is that? I forgot I have the paddles on this thing. I'm trying to evade, but... This big man is just like... Maybe I should attack this little woman. first, which is something that really bad out of context. Yeah, so I clips that and tweets
Starting point is 00:09:34 that, I could get you in trouble. Yeah, uh-oh, who's this gentleman? Oh, here we go. Here come to support rolls. Oh, okay. So this man has snakes on his hand. I don't know how he's going to support me in what way. And they spelled whoa wrong,
Starting point is 00:09:50 which is just a disgrace. No, I know, that's the correct one. That's the correct one. That looks like the right. But what if the snakes, instead of like when they bite you, instead of giving you poison they give you like help you know what a milt maybe yeah Gatorade yeah to be clear this is a pvp game right you're playing with you're playing against other players the multiplayer four before a game but right now we're playing with bots because this tutorial yeah correct good time in zero cool
Starting point is 00:10:18 oh that's his name zero cool like from that hacker movie hackers you all are too young I mean I don't remember either but okay so he'll hackers come on like the 2000s? Kind of, yeah. Oh, never mind, it's 1995. Oh shit. Wow. Hold X to shoot enemies, okay.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Wow, so right now you're in like a... And then I can... You're in a turret kind of vehicle. Yeah. So some of the healers have these abilities where you want to stay far away. For example, the little lady that I wanted to attack earlier, mount up... Mount up. Mouth pudding.
Starting point is 00:10:55 Oh, cool. Oh, mount up. Yeah, and follow Damon. So, uh, the little little lady that I wanted to attack earlier. little lady that was in the arena earlier, she, oh, look at his little digital steering wheel. That looks really sick. Oh, yeah, that does look like.
Starting point is 00:11:07 This guy's sick. Yeah, this guy's cool. He looks like Viz Kid from Burger King, the Burger King logos. Again, you guys are just way too. Yeah, I was going to say, that's a reference that. Scott, I was going to say like, there was a kid, there was a kid in a wheelchair. There was a girl with red hair. They basically look like the recess, the cast of recess. Oh, okay. And then,
Starting point is 00:11:23 but recess ripped off Burger King. But there was a kid named Viz Kid. He had a little visor. Recess ripped off Burger King. Yeah. I mean I have it on good authority of that You can use a vade to get up safely Using evade this way costs no stamina Okay, use evade now to get up hold directions in any direction press RT
Starting point is 00:11:44 Oh okay So I can keep my an at my Oh okay okay so I hold square I hold Y to heal my dudes Uh huh And that's when it turns to this sort of green It's sort of like mercy. Gotcha. Playing Mercy in Overwatch.
Starting point is 00:12:06 All right. Again, that's a fifth Overwatch reference. Everybody keeps coming. Yeah. Oh, he's going to respawn shortly. Oh, he's going to respawn. Okay. Again, very different for a Ninja Theory game.
Starting point is 00:12:21 I mean, totally. Yeah. So we always kind of hoped that this was hopefully going to be a game that they put out. Obviously, I don't want to say that this is a half-assed game. We know that this is a game that they, had been working on prior but just didn't have budget to finish it. Yeah, that was like the story of, during the development of Hellblade, right, they were also working on this, but they were like, okay, let's actually shift all our resources
Starting point is 00:12:44 to Hellblade because this need, like, we need to shelve this for now. We have, like, grand ideas for this. It's going to take more time. Yeah, it's going to take more time, right? What I'm hoping this does is I'm hoping this game is financially successful enough to continue to fund future Ninja Theory projects. on the grander scale, like the things that they hinted at with that little horror. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:07 Horror short. Every time I say horror, it just sounds like I'm saying horror. No, yeah, I have the same issue. Horror. Horror. Horror. Horror. Horror.
Starting point is 00:13:17 Oh, who's this woman? Wow, this looks like, what's her name from? From Borderlands. I'm sure there's going to be a million comparisons to everything. Yeah. But immediately looking at the guitar guy, he looks like the guitar dude from guitar here or rock band, one of those. Oh, yeah. They look like guitar here where you can get the skin looking dude.
Starting point is 00:13:35 Now we have a full team, cool, tight, okay. Cool, Leveh. This game definitely has a style that is core and for. Okay. It's like the, this game is for people who say the word badass. Control, oh yeah, ironically. Controlled change to Damon, this guy's such a badass. I can use my stealth, okay, to get in behind behind.
Starting point is 00:14:04 Oh, tight, okay, so abilities and supers. Oh. Supers and abilities. So audio listeners, I don't know how to help you out here. But it's 4V4 audio listeners, and it looks like, you know, similar tank, DPS, healer sort of compositions, abilities. And I can, I'm stealthing right now. Okay, so yeah, just go to visible and I'm sneaking behind Kulev. And I guess because he's the healer.
Starting point is 00:14:30 God, he's so scary looking. Right? So he's the healer. And it's just like in a lot of place, a lot of much like over. You want to go after the heel of first. You take the head off the snake. No pun intended. Shit, I'm out of stealth mode.
Starting point is 00:14:43 Oh, I have a time limit. I see. We're busy talking engine theory. Apologies. Let me see. There's like a last bullet point here in the website that I'll go in the highlight, right? It says, mod your combat, show your style. Give yourself an edge by creating unique loadouts for every fighter.
Starting point is 00:14:59 Choose from hundreds of cybernetic mods to fully tailor your build to suit your personal play style, all earnable through gameplay. Customize each fighter's, let's see, hoverboard. This dude's Genji. With Blazing Trails, unique stickers, and basically you can customize. This dude's Genji. Oh, yeah, he moves like in his dude's Genji, and he throws those little shiricans. Uh, yeah, pretty sick.
Starting point is 00:15:30 This game just feels like it's almost required to have, uh... Like prior knowledge. Or, or, like, it would benefit you to have a controller, like, it would benefit you to have a controller, like this where you have you have access to paddle buttons because you walk up, you attack, and then the next thing you know they're around you immediately so you have to take your hand off the attack buttons, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:53 Had that controller control. Yeah. Stay together as a group. Does it feel nice to play? Does this game feel like everything's right? You know what I mean? I mean, nothing right now is blowing me away mechanically. It feels like it ought to, but it doesn't...
Starting point is 00:16:10 It's not like, oh, this is the one. No, it doesn't feel super tight. The attacks are very, are very automated. Like, you... It's like very, like, area of effect kind of thing. Yeah, like, if you are aiming at this dude and you hit the B button, he's going to throw the shirikins at the dude, as opposed to, like, having to aim in a certain way.
Starting point is 00:16:26 Okay. See, that gives me pause, because I don't know if that's going to be... That's not necessarily my gym. I like the skill involved in, like, actually hitting a thing. I think those are just because they are projectile moves, but when I was watching Sancho West play earlier, he was the giant dude who has the ball in his, in his stomach. There's like a sphere in his stomach that kind of he's like a robot, a humanoid guy.
Starting point is 00:16:45 And that was very much run up to the guy, try to combo moves, knock him up into the air, and do all sort of stuff. Gotcha, yeah, I want that option. Objective control. So yeah, it could be character by character, how that stuff plays out. Yeah. Okay. King of the Hill style. Okay.
Starting point is 00:17:12 Oh. Blue some fire. There we go. Good job, Andy. Huh? Good job. We did it. We captured it.
Starting point is 00:17:22 We captured it. We captured it. Objective A. Can I get 10 gifted subs guys for capturing that point? Thanks, everyone. Let's see here. And code gaming, where you at, bro? What the fuck.
Starting point is 00:17:35 Come, friend. I'm mounting up. Tond of mount up. Oh, man. That's it. I was it, I guess. So this game has a mini map. I just realized that.
Starting point is 00:17:51 So the arenas are not so small as we thought. Yeah. I guess that is where, like, the mobile comes in. Like, the explorability of the arena. That was pretty sick. I guess once you start to figure out combos and how the different abilities lead into the next ability, I feel like that's where it can kind of get satisfying. But, like, you know, I use the B button down there and there's a cool down.
Starting point is 00:18:23 You kind of got to remember there is a cool down. X is just your standard attack, but there's always a cool down with the special ability. Oh, so we really did get 10. Yeah, shout out to Joe Beezer. Joe Beezer went off to that. Hell yeah, Joe Beezer. See, you guys, Nitro Rifle speaks. They answer.
Starting point is 00:18:39 NRA answers. The cool NRA. Oh, nitro rifles, the cool and good NRA. Yeah, I was like with the NRA. Yeah. I don't know if I want them to answer.
Starting point is 00:18:48 Yeah. We usually don't, but this is a different situation. Yeah. All right, so we got some of them. Combat action. The one kind of
Starting point is 00:19:00 annoying thing is you are constantly going to take your hands off of the attack points. Is there like a lock-on kind of thing at all? Yeah, there probably is. You know, there probably is.
Starting point is 00:19:10 Probably is. Wait, because this is their first time I actually playing on this. Yeah. There was a lock on while I was healing earlier, but there didn't seem to be... I don't know if there's a lock on actually. Let's see. Controller, oh, there's accessibility options. It's always good.
Starting point is 00:19:29 Oh, input mapping. Here we go. Lock on. Okay, so lock on is left trigger. Gotcha. That's tight. No, what did I do? I didn't get out of this.
Starting point is 00:19:37 Just back on, Andy. Tight, okay. Let's see. Yeah, left trigger is lock on. clicking the right stick changes targets. Gotcha. Oh, okay, so bright trigger is evade as well. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:54 So I guess maybe if you're in lock on mode, it's no longer evade. No, you write thumbstick to switch. Oh, right thumbstick, sorry. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. I want to see what a match looks like. I wonder how long this tutorial is. Yeah, I kind of want to back out of the tutorial
Starting point is 00:20:13 and just get in it. Power cell control? I wouldn't be opposed to it. All right, chat. We're doing it. Yeah, we're doing it. We're doing it all. Chat, can I get a bunch of two hornies in chat right now?
Starting point is 00:20:23 Put some two hornies in chat. This is a very unconventional. First impression. Yeah, this is always going to be in the middle. This is more of a weird one. Like I was telling Barrett, when Greg plays Halo or when Nick plays Last of Us, we're more in the entertaining mode as opposed to the editorial mode. Yeah, do they inform? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:40 Let's get into... It's kind of mixture of both, though, because we're... We're in this adventure together. And that's what makes you the number one gaming journalist, Andy. You're a little bit of both. It is, yeah. If you all notice, I tweeted out a couple days ago where I asked Ken Levine what he was doing. I did see that.
Starting point is 00:20:57 This is an old tweet from about two years ago. And I said, Ken, what's you up to? And he said, making video games. I was like, nice. Yeah. And then I got a lot of replies that are like, man, that is some gaming journalism at its finest. How the fuck do I get to the menu, bro? What do I do?
Starting point is 00:21:11 You're stuck in that top right corner. Maybe you have to back out. There you go. Oh, yeah. So it's like graffiti on the wall. It's a different, yeah, I was trying to get to the left. I just, I was stuck in that little mode up there. All right, let's go out of fight.
Starting point is 00:21:27 Searching for game. So I like this main menu. Yeah. I'll play a map and then we'll switch off. Sounds good. Tutorials, I guess don't know. I guess you could do stuff while you're waiting for a match. That's good.
Starting point is 00:21:41 Practice moves. Let's see. we can't wait to see these characters yeah there's a lot of really cool uh different uh aesthetics for different uh like there's a lot of cybernetic sort of uh vibes going on on this game once again this is in closed beta and so if you pre-ordered the game i believe or if you have xbox game pass i believe you have access to this double check me on that destroy canisters to collect power cells and the other team has to deliver power cells to drop zones to earn
Starting point is 00:22:13 No, are we both doing that? We're all doing that. See, people in chat are confirming it's closed to GamePass and pre-orders. Gotcha. That's pretty sick. Yeah. This controller, man, I'll tell you what.
Starting point is 00:22:27 I still need to work on getting the back buttons correctly mapped. So when I play Apex, I got heel and grenade. Oh. You know what I mean? Yeah, that's nice. Yeah, because I have the D-Pact.
Starting point is 00:22:37 That's, like, one of the things I don't like about the controller layout of Apex is using the deep hat to switch over. Oh, so it suggests people. Oh, that's a really nice system right there. You got Zero Cool, Kulev, Gizmo. So everybody,
Starting point is 00:22:52 it looked like a couple people are taking already. Nidhager. Wow. After I said that, I was like, did I just say something bad? Yeah, you're close. I mean, it's fine for you. You can say. I mean, that's his literal name is Nidhager. I mean, I wonder if he's a really big fan of the game Nidhog.
Starting point is 00:23:06 It's a risky one. I mean, obviously he's a fan of Nidhog. Yeah. That R, that R is... It's scary. It's very scary. Here somebody say that online. You're right.
Starting point is 00:23:15 I'm just getting scared right now. I'm getting real scared. Let's see here. Minimac. Okay, you could select your super rocket. We ride a giant missile. Longer the ride, the bigger the bang. Press X2 explode.
Starting point is 00:23:27 Okay, I'll do that. Sure. We're mounting up. So we're going to go try to destroy some cells. So she's not even melee. She's just straight up shooter, it looks like. There's that close-up shots, right? It looks like you can't do, like, long-range stuff.
Starting point is 00:23:52 Yeah, this little freaking character right there. Yeah, this is a little freaking nature. Thinks they're clever. So, yeah, your whole thing has got to get, like, a mid-range distance with this character. I like it. I keep saying this, but I really like how this game looks. Like, stylistically, it looks. Oh, it looks sick.
Starting point is 00:24:04 It's appealing to me. This guy's obviously an MLG level already. I don't know what the hell I'm doing. I'm dead. So she doesn't feel super cool. When you're getting, yeah, when you're getting kind of pummeled at close range and you're a shooter, So maybe that's why they told me Another player was suggested
Starting point is 00:24:22 Alright, so you can change characters midway through Is what it looks like Yeah, it looks like at least after every After a death After a death Yeah Which still, I haven't died in this game yet Which is really impressive
Starting point is 00:24:33 Good job, Andy Thanks Thank you What's your deal? Are you playing or what's going on? I think they're just messing around Are they waiting for me maybe All right
Starting point is 00:24:44 So you're supposed to be collecting power cells Oh yeah Right? Right now looks like the other team has two. Your team has zero. There's a countdown going on. Oh, this gentleman is so hurt. This gentleman. This gentleman. This gentleman is just... This is the polite way.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Needing it. Oh, gosh. I got to get it to the heels. There we go. So, yeah, I'm supposed to be collected cells and this... Oh, he wants it so bad, dude, this guy. This little freak of nature down here. So there's phases. like right delivery phase starting in about 13 seconds all right I really just I'm so set on killing this man oh he's scary hand in points activated I don't know what the hell that even means so I think that then changes the objective to deliver
Starting point is 00:25:42 power cells to drop zones oh I'm gonna die I'm gonna die I'm already to get salty and be like where's my support at where's my heels they can't hear a word Where my heels at? Oh, I thought it said victory. I was like, why? We win already? I'm like waiting for us to enter a match and just hear like a kid's screechy voice and be like, oh Yeah, oh, thank God. Where's my heels? I'm gonna stick with this dude just to see what the hell What he's all about. I love the animation. Yeah I think this game presents really well. Yeah, absolutely absolutely I was trying to lock on to somebody, but it didn't feel like maybe I wasn't doing it L too
Starting point is 00:26:27 I probably wasn't doing it right. It's all about again Just you got okay oh cool so those those are those the cells I guess so I take it back maybe Where are we going my dude oh to the A let's yeah yeah you have your map right there bottom right or top right oh yeah yeah Okay sick okay Oh ha ha ha ha wait I do I do something what the fuck that I do? Who knows who knows Still exciting all I need a I need a double team this I don't say it like that No, say it like that
Starting point is 00:27:06 You're fucking dead, bro You're fucking dad dude Alright so there's some power shells that have spawned I think they're the X's on the map But I'm not positive I didn't do this correctly I should have done it around people I didn't know what the hell it did
Starting point is 00:27:21 Yeah Alright so that Swords thing I think might be Actually I don't know what I'm talking about Just give me a Slayer mode You know what I mean Oh yeah,
Starting point is 00:27:34 Oh, freak, I'm dead I'm gonna die Oh, that little bit of jerk Where's the healer? No, I got a little bit of heels Somebody switched to mercy Towards the end Do you want to try?
Starting point is 00:27:44 Sure I don't really know What to even tell you Yeah, I'm not used to using controllers with paddles on them Because PlayStation So you can remove them Because, and you might want to
Starting point is 00:27:56 Because they activate face buttons I'm not sure with the buttons What the paddles are default to do But I think it's like X and Y or some bullshit Okay. Now how'd you use your board? Uh, hit right on the D-pad. You have to like hit it and kind of wait there for a Oh, spot it mount. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:28:12 Alright. So something's gonna be here in 10 seconds. That's half. Yeah. I don't feel like it moves fast enough to warrant like the time to get up there. Oh yeah. So break that. Destroy that shit. Yeah. Oh, this, holy crap. Take a chill pill, dude. Oh my god, you're getting dis... Yeah, I'm getting... It is a gang bang right here. I just got jump. This is gang bang. Creak pie of Subradict.
Starting point is 00:28:38 How do you use your abilities? Uh, because I just went in there with the X button and that was it. So, so, so, so, so, um, a bunch of X's is your, your combo, your center melee. Uh-huh. You'll see on the bottom right, it'll, uh, B, Y, and R B. Gotcha. Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. And you can like X, X, and then RB and then X, X, and Y.
Starting point is 00:28:58 Y is. Okay, that's the flame and then RB looks like it'll... It's like the slide. Slide, okay. It's like an attack slide. Gotcha This is the dash Oh man
Starting point is 00:29:09 So these controls are a little bit Complicated It's a tad bit Wow I also just think it's like Based on what you might be used to You know Oh yeah you're killing it You're killing it bless
Starting point is 00:29:19 Get this little charge node Whatever the hell that means And go do something cool Go drop it off at A At A I think Do I have a thing now? I don't know
Starting point is 00:29:30 I think that's just like Upping your attack All power cells handed in I don't even Yeah I think it ups my attack is what it looks like oh okay what where's your team I think they all got yeah they're all dead it seems like it's an overwatch thing where it's since we're all going in one at a time yeah they're stagger guys we're staggered
Starting point is 00:29:49 yeah their whole team is just like get right not why are you rushing in there dude you got no heels on you man fucking Jesus Christ this guy's cool though I like his little uh there's a little hoverboard thing yeah I like it do he rides it around like he's bored as fuck though and my ultimate See, I would have changed my character by now, but my ultimate's building up. I wasn't talking about this guy. I was talking about the little Vizkid guy with the little glasses. I like his little hovered device.
Starting point is 00:30:16 I think these are the power cells? It's very possible. Yeah, those guys weren't there. I mean, this game's up to going to 50, and right now it's 44 to 6. So it's going pretty bad. This lockoff sucks. Does it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:32 It doesn't, you have to hold it, is what you have to do. I don't think I tried it. Damn, you just lock off. lost three power cells. Oh, man. It's rough out here. It's rough out here in these bleeding edge streets. Dude, that's what turns to the game. Turns the tide. 45 to 6.
Starting point is 00:30:53 Oh, God. The sudden realization that you're getting worked. I've never been worked like this before in my life. Hey, you know what, Andy? You were two of those points, though, so be proud of that. Was I? Shut the fuck up. No way. I think so. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:31:09 You had two cells and you gave it to like whatever thing. Damn it. Damn it. I'll save it up for it too. Oh, and it looks like you can see when the other players have their ultimate up, unlike Overwatch. So if you look up on the... You can see it all overwatch. You can see when your team has it, but not when the other team has it.
Starting point is 00:31:29 Oh, when the other team has it. Gotcha. I guess you can't see the other team here either. Because you can see your team's progress on their ultimate, on the cards on the top. And the other team isn't show in progress. So never mind. I take back my statement. God damn it.
Starting point is 00:31:47 Coke Gaming. Where are you at? Come on, guys. Somewhere better. Somewhere way better, but... You can't set lock-on to toggle. I think there wasn't a menu. You probably can.
Starting point is 00:32:03 Yeah, there's a lot of them. There's definitely, I definitely saw one. But I don't love toggle... Oh, toggle. Sorry. I was thinking that person meant left-click in. I don't know why. I don't want my brain went there. Stupid.
Starting point is 00:32:18 Stupid. So thanks for chat. Thanks chat for that suggestion because, actually I'm changing my fighter and I'll use my ultimate. Change it, is this what you started with? That's what I started with and she was like, uh, Sancho liked her a lot. Maybe go to the top left dude. Yeah, try that. Damon, demon. Oh, the Genji man. Gengi looking dude.
Starting point is 00:32:34 And then I can choose my... Dude, he's gonna tear it up, man. This guy looks sick. Let's see, grants extra damage against your marked target if you kill them and cast this again. Whoa, you got a free ultimate ability. That's really sick. That's pretty sick. That's pretty sick.
Starting point is 00:32:48 That one seems easier. That seems like a more sure bet of an ability. So right now, audio listeners. So everybody has a snowboard. Oh, everybody's got snowboards. Yeah. Ah, you lost? No way.
Starting point is 00:32:58 It was a close game. It was. It was so close. Eight to 50. I think visually this game is nailing it. Yeah. Like, it reminds you a lot of the first time I played Splatoon where everything seems so in sync in terms of the visual language.
Starting point is 00:33:14 And the, not only the UI, but, like, right there where it just said defeat. Like, the choice as a designer, like the choice of fonts and cool visual overlays, I think this game is all kind of. Yeah, visually, I think, in presentation-wise, I really dig this. Yeah. It's definitely one of those ones where it looks like you're going to want to play the tutorial. Yeah, for sure. Because, like, Overwatch, I remember the first time I played Overwatch. Like, I did even go to the tour.
Starting point is 00:33:39 I went straight into the game, played a match. You picked a shooter. Yeah, it's like, oh, this game is easy to learn. Like, Overwatch, by the, by the time I finished the first match, I knew what was going on. Here, I'm like, there seems to be a lot going on, and I should know. Like, there's phases and stuff that you need to know what to do. Yeah. So it looks like it keeps you back to the main menu in the closed beta between matches.
Starting point is 00:33:58 And so let's look for another one. Oh, no, you're, well, you did click searching, gotcha. The arrow's on training. Kind of a weird thing. I guess because you can do other things while you search. You can still go to options, though. Check to see what. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:13 Or go to social, you know what? See which are your friends are online. I don't ever use Xbox. Oh, Rayn Arvay's on. Brown Man. Yeah. And Ziger and Victoria the Geek chick. Yeah, I haven't played. I haven't used my Xbox in a while.
Starting point is 00:34:33 Mostly because of all my Overwatch friends are on PS4. See, that's the tank, dude. That's tank. He's more, he's a very punching focus dude. So I just realized the rolls are, there are separated by. Oh, sure. So bottom is tank, so these are our tank characters. Bast, El Bast.
Starting point is 00:34:50 We got support here, and then we got damage at the top. Go to the bottom left, dude. Is that El Basardo? Oh, it is. That's really cool. That guy looks awesome. I'm going to go to this guy. The character artists fucking kicked ass in this game.
Starting point is 00:35:05 Good job to them. They had a lot of fun. Yeah. Everything from concepting the characters to actually modeling them out. That looks like it was a lot of fun to work on. Does your team have a support? Oh, I guess it has to. Yeah, you have the little snake man as a support.
Starting point is 00:35:28 Capture objectives. See, this is the part of the game that I don't love already when there's somebody low and you're just chasing them. Yeah. That feels very unfun. It feels like you're wasting time almost. Yeah. All right, so this is a different mode.
Starting point is 00:35:42 It looks like because we're capturing objectives. Gotcha. As opposed to... So C is unlocked right now. B and A are not unlocked yet. But they will unlock soon. Parts like this. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:35:54 That didn't look safe. And remember, you can hit Y to go invisible. Oh, smart. And then you can attack people from behind and believe. Use RB, no. I don't know. You know what I mean? Like, precision-wise, it just feels, I guess you really have to use the lock-on.
Starting point is 00:36:17 Yeah, it seems like that. In the lock-in feels like it doesn't, it's not as snappy as I'd like it to be. Yeah. You just walking on water like Jesus Christ? So C is still the only one on. lock so far. But right now, your team dominating, bless. Eighty-two to five, and frankly, I would say that
Starting point is 00:36:41 you are a big, important piece of that. Of course. Of course. Dominating on the field. Objectives, activating. So A and B are going to unlock right now. Yeah, baby. They're getting there. Right now is there... Are they all locked right now? I don't see one on the map. No, they're
Starting point is 00:36:57 all locked, but A and B are currently, like, you could see a little progress bar on them, and they're about to unlock in. Five, four, three, Two, one. Oh, I see. Okay, so you like get ready and then you have to go after them. Makes sense.
Starting point is 00:37:12 That makes sense. Chasing can be executed fast in this game, unlike for Honor. Says White Mambaile, White Man Bailey, I don't know. Interesting. So I don't need to chase after that person. Because these guys are going to try and come around. Actually, no, we can get it.
Starting point is 00:37:35 But I think it all depends on are you traveling with somebody? because I feel like you want to travel in packs but this dude's alone yeah and he's not even paid attention idiot it what a doofus look what a what a fool look what a fool he's invisible behind you he's trying to he's getting a little too horny right now yeah he got the job on me shirking him shirken oh what's budget the shirk oh b you see they did they just home in right on on and gotcha oh damn I don't love that you're evade is limited. Yeah, no, it's very I don't like that. Cool down needs to be faster. The thing I will say is
Starting point is 00:38:16 actually having my hands on the controller, this game doesn't feel as snappy as I'd like it to be. Like as like mechanical. Sure, yeah. I see, now that I'm playing, I see what they're kind of going for as far as feel. And for a melee multiplayer kind of game, or for a game where like one of the selling points is that like, hey, we're doing like an Overwatch kind of game, but it's melee focused.
Starting point is 00:38:38 I wish there was more like good feedback when you're like chopping people up. And I think some of that might be due to the fact that when you play a game like DMC or near Autometer where the enemies are getting hit in a way to where it looks like you are... You're like chuckling them and like... Yeah, where you are directly sort of affecting them. But in multiplayer games like this, it's kind of hard to give that off because the other players trying to evade and do stuff, you know?
Starting point is 00:39:07 Yeah. It's a hard thing to balance. Yeah, they're not going into a sort of, this really long, predetermined animation of I'm getting hit right now, you know? Yeah. Oh, God. Oh, geez. Oh, bless.
Starting point is 00:39:29 Oh, yeah. Oh, this is unfortunate. Yeah, that was very unfortunate. I thought I had him. I thought I had him. You almost had us in the first half. Yeah. KCU says not really digging this level design.
Starting point is 00:39:42 I don't hate it. I like the different levels. I don't think that there's maybe I don't know if the the two-story level approach and it's not even really stories. It's just kind of like a little bridge that goes above where the points are. It doesn't feel like it's drastic enough. It doesn't feel like it's a What is that ability? I don't know. Oh, you went invisible and then you immediately went uninvise an univisible and then you immediately went uninvisible. Jesus, this guy's horny as hell. Too horny. Dude, I'm getting the hands
Starting point is 00:40:21 right now. I mean, this dude's been playing eight years since the game came out of eight years ago. Been playing a whole eight hours. I already knows all the strats. You're hopping into CS Go when there's been people playing the game for 20 years. This lady with the chicken legs. The chicken legs remind me
Starting point is 00:40:37 a lot of, in Middle Gear Solid 4. Oh, I know what you're talking about. The one that moo. Bipedal. Yeah, the ones that moo. And Ryden's slicing them all up. I mean, I'm just going to stick with the person I got. I like him best so far.
Starting point is 00:40:54 He looks the coolest on the hoverboard. Yeah, he does. He looks like he's been doing this for days. Perry is RT. Yeah, we know what Perry is and stuff. It's just when you have that on a cool down, when it runs out, it just kind of sucks. Wait, is Perry RT? Because I thought it was, like, Dodge Roll.
Starting point is 00:41:09 Well, no, yeah, dog. Or, like, dodge, but. you can't do it while running or dashing. Oh, okay, that I didn't know. Gotcha. And that doesn't take any... Again, another one of those things where I read a word, thought it was another word. It wasn't that word. Word.
Starting point is 00:41:24 Perry, I was like, oh, Dodge. Nope, different things, Andy. Because when I think Perry, I need to think about the Daigo Umahara Evo Perry against Justin Wong. Drake and Pohn in the chat says, is this free to play?
Starting point is 00:41:42 No, I don't think so. No, but it's on Xbox Game Pass. Yeah, it'll be Game Pass Day 1? Yes, because it's an Xbox game. Actually, you know what? Did we ever even look at the price?
Starting point is 00:41:51 I don't know. Yeah, I don't know how much it is, but I think it's definitely not free to play. I want to say I'm positive, but now that I'm saying it out loud, I'm like, I'm a doubtful person, right, I doubt everything I say, and so maybe look it up there.
Starting point is 00:42:04 Don't worry, don't worry, I got it. Welcome to my life. $30,000. $30. $30. $30. $30? So for audio... So for audio listeners, $30. In case they didn't hear it earlier.
Starting point is 00:42:23 In case they didn't hear it. I was going to say, I was like, wait. Nothing but top to your comedy here. Kind of funny. I was trying to figure it out of my head. Legit, I was doing like the Greg Miller math on the screen kind of thing. I was like, why would the audio listeners need that extra clarification? I think that's a bit high for a game like this. I kind of do.
Starting point is 00:42:38 Yeah. So far from what I've seen, it doesn't... I don't know, man. I just feel like there are so many of these games that there are so many communities that are just so spread thin. And it's got to be so daunting to make a game that requires active players. Yeah. Oh, for sure. You know, where there are people, there are a shitload of people playing Cod and Overwatch and Apex Legends and Splatoon and, you know, there's...
Starting point is 00:43:13 Are people still playing Splatoon? Swatoon? Yeah. Oh my god, yeah. Nintendo fans love Splatoon. Oh, my God, yeah. Splatoon is huge in Japan, dude. But it's just so hard to kind of create, again, like, the game that Roosterteeth made that immediately kind of failed. And they laid everybody off because it's, you know, it's so, vicious circle.
Starting point is 00:43:36 It's so hard to have to find a dedicated fan base that's going to be their 99-9 that this fan base isn't going to go play another game, you know. Oh man, so they took the lead. Jesus. Yeah. But you know what? Not your fault, though. Not my fault at all. Where's the arms community have?
Starting point is 00:43:55 Jesus. Panzer G. I've never been more wrong about a game, dude. Ooh, I like that. I thought arms was going to be the biggest game of the planet. I was like, dude, I was like, y'all don't understand, right? I love wee boxing. This seems to be a whole game of that.
Starting point is 00:44:08 This is going to be excellent. And then I played it and I was like, man, I've never been so wrong in my life. I've never been more wrong. I mean, so the thing is I played it and I still thought that. But it's not that like I was going. good or bad at the game. It was more of a... Well, you know, I'm kind of shitty
Starting point is 00:44:21 at this game, but I could still see this taking off in a big way, and I was so wrong. Remember, like, when you and I were really into tennis? And we thought like tennis was going to be, like, huge for a while. Well, and it was because Nintendo's online services are so good. They're so good. Wait, you know,
Starting point is 00:44:37 my tennis Aces? Yeah. Yeah, dude. That was hot for... A hot minute. Like, three weeks. Yeah. Nintendo's online services are so good. It was kind of funny live four or three. Three? I don't know. Three, I think it was kind of, or maybe it was kind of funny prom. No, that was it prom? Yeah, was it was a prom? I was working at IGN, so yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:54 Because, yeah, I think it was kind of funny prom where, like, that was like the big game, and then after that, I don't think I touched Aces again. Is it because Bowser Jr. was Ope. Yeah, everybody figured out, like the meta. I mean, you're getting healed, though. You got support. You got support, bless. Oh, you, oh, you're, the wall. Oh, my God, her face of death was so horrifying. You want to take over? Yeah, let me, let me see what's. This is all about. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:19 Let me see what it's all about. Spice Runner 90 in the chat says this will be a battleborn situation. You guys agree? I kind of agree. I don't know if it'll be a battleborn situation because one, this doesn't have an Overwatch coming out on the same week or whatever. Right? It doesn't have like a direct competitor.
Starting point is 00:45:32 But then also I feel like certain elements of this. Like so far I understand this more than I understood Battleborn. And I like I tried that Battleborn beta or whatever. But Battlebore was a lot of PVE too, right? Like. It was. it was like PVB, but it was like very moba, but you are fighting minions
Starting point is 00:45:51 on the field, right? And like it's, it was very much a moba that took place in first person. And I feel like the onboarding process of Battleboren was not good. Like, I took me, like, by the time I finished playing Battlemore, I was still like, I don't understand all the ins and outs of this game in a way where in other
Starting point is 00:46:07 multiplayer games that do pull me in. I feel like, at this point of the game, right, at this point playing Bleeding Edge, I'm like, okay, I'm starting to get what this is. I'm starting to get like the flows of these matches. Like, still whatever movie played before this mode where it was wave-based of like this first wave is this okay now you're collecting the
Starting point is 00:46:23 whatever is and bringing them back here right that I can still get a little bit more clarity on but like so far like this mode I'm like okay I understand what we're doing here I understand how these mechanics work capturing points we've done this the abilities we've done this like I think the thing I think the thing that I'll make it tough for this game is will this
Starting point is 00:46:39 translate like as far as the actual gameplay feel and like the satisfaction of getting a kill or winning a match will that translate as well as other games? Because so far, even like the one or two kills I got during that match, I was like, all right, cool. Like, I didn't feel like I earned them.
Starting point is 00:46:55 It felt like I just walked up and I just started blasting. The satisfaction was in there, you know? Yeah. The satisfaction of a really sick headshot or, you know, a well-timed rocket or anything like that. And it could be because I suck still, right? Like, we're just like, we're just now starting this game. We're not good at it yet.
Starting point is 00:47:11 It might be a thing where it's like once you speak for yourself. Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm not good at yet. But once we start getting combos and like, like, once we get like a three, three person kill, right? Like, is that going to feel satisfying? So far, I don't know. Like, I feel like that first kill should feel like something. And for me, the first kill I got in this game, I was like that, I felt nothing. God damn it.
Starting point is 00:47:31 This is another select or deliver and whatever the hell. The power cells. Yeah. All right. So they picked Ninja Man, Damon, uh, Nid Hogger, Mave. Oh, she's a creepy. looking. Oh, here it is. Oh, wow. I'd love for her to just
Starting point is 00:47:49 kick me down. No, I'm saying. Do you kill me with those thighs? Hell yeah, dude. Choke me, you know what I mean? Wow. I want to pick this dude, I think. Or should I pick El Bastardo? An aggressive bruiser relies on defensive shields generally. I kind of like him. I really like his long cowboy hat. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:06 Oh, it's got a camera in it too. I'm not a big cowboy person, but... Your life support overloads El Bastado is... Dealing constant damage. What do you think... Wait, actually, oh, no, no mind. The height of his hat reminds me of Dale Demitum from... Is there something crossed out in his name after the L, or am I just... Do I just have bad eyesight?
Starting point is 00:48:22 No. There's nothing crossed out there. Okay. It's just El Basava. It's supposed to look like a knife. Gotcha. Okay, I was trying to figure that. I was like, my blind?
Starting point is 00:48:32 If I don't, if I don't dig this dude, hold on. Ooh. I like how that looks, though. That looks satisfying to, uh, to do. That looks like, just give me like some dark soul vibes. Oh, that's sick. Okay. Oh, there's his shield ability.
Starting point is 00:48:47 Bill swings better be powerful. See, again, this game releases March 24th, 2020. This is the closed beta we're playing. Thank you, Microsoft for the codes. All right, what we gotta do is like, you gotta focus down one dude pretty much. And this dude being a little baby crier, running away. Somebody in chat said the right trigger, like the dash move
Starting point is 00:49:12 is good for chasing people that are getting away from you. It's closing that gap. Which, like, I like that method of thinking. Like, I like the idea of, like, oh, yeah, we're meleeing right now. Oh, I'm frozen. I have to chase you down and have to close that gap. But I feel like there's a tightness that I want with that, that I'm not necessarily getting into this game.
Starting point is 00:49:31 This mofo is so low on help, dude. Oh, a little bit of lag there. Who's cheating? Is somebody clicking turning off the router and standby? That's an old term. You guys don't really get it. See, back in the day when we played Halo Online, there was a way that you could turn off your router and turn it back on,
Starting point is 00:49:46 and it would freeze all the other team. Oh. And then you'd be, it was called standby. You were being standbyed. And the other team would be like running into a wall and you would just shoot them while they're running to the wall. Very, very illegal. Yeah, man.
Starting point is 00:49:58 That sounds like way before my time. Oh, here, we can get this, dude. Barry, how old are you? 12. 25. Where are you 25? When was your birthday? How did you not know that, Bless? Dude, Barry's birthday was like last week.
Starting point is 00:50:12 He didn't say fucking say shit. Wait, what? Yeah, dude. Bro, happy birthday. Why do we not know this? Where is the party? I don't talk about my birthday. Where was the high fives? Cool Greg was like, it's your birthday? Ah, it's cool, man. Happy birthday. And I thought y'all were fucking around.
Starting point is 00:50:25 I didn't even know, like, how he found out, though. That was the weird thing. Do you not have it on Facebook? No. Let's get this little freaking nature. Man, I wish you and I'm playing together right now. Yeah, I wish so too. I feel like it would be a lot. It'd be nice to like be able to communicate and be like, okay, yeah, like, let's all, let's team up on this person. And like, we're together and stuff, you know, like that. Yeah, better together.
Starting point is 00:50:48 Oh, freak on a leader. Freak on a leash dude. I am getting mowed down. Oh, freak. Oh, nice. Nice. They froze them in there. Oh, hell yeah. Cancel death spiral. Yeah, cancel that shit. You gotta find some health, dude. I mean, this jumping ability looks aesthetically cool, but mechanically, I still need to figure out how the fuck to do it. Yeah. Oh, freak. You little freak. Is that chicken legs? No. Like why is that not doing more damage?
Starting point is 00:51:25 Yeah, that's my thing. That feels like it should do more damage. Yeah. Oh, no. Here it is. Here's this little jump move. Like, how the fuck do I even control that, man? Were you locked on me?
Starting point is 00:51:36 Oh, that's a good point. Because that might then automate it. But I don't, that's just me saying things. I don't truly believe that. I don't think it'll actually automate it. Son of a bitch. All right. All right.
Starting point is 00:51:46 Okay, I'm feeling this guy more and more. It's all about just like I have to be around a team to live. I forgot what my ultimate does. So I still don't have an ultimate ability? Ultimate is LB. You're at 74. I thought I... Dude, no, no, I am fully charged.
Starting point is 00:52:00 That was his. That was his. It was a... It was a... Spectating. Okay, okay. First, I'm going to try out this whole locked-on ability thing with the LB. The squad, we got to roll together, man.
Starting point is 00:52:11 I like the look of this map. Look at his fucking boots, bro. Holy shit. Oh, my God. Jesus. Oh, wow. Yo, imagine getting kicked with them... Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:52:23 This money kicks you, but it feels like he got stabbed. All right. I need to be. Is that your ultimate? There you go. But it looks like they're also using their ultimate. He's so fucking weak. Get this little bastard! Get this freaking nature! Game! God, this little bastard. How the... where did you go by the way? Huh? Where did you just go right there? God damn internet? Oh, freak out of leash dude. Is that I'm guessing one of them is like Alright, so I'm locked on to him.
Starting point is 00:53:04 Oh, okay, sweet, sweet. I'm shocked you... I'm about to 2V-1 these full shit up, dude. I'm shocked you're still like... Oh, no, no, Andy, get out of there! Get out of there! You got your cells! It's getting real bad.
Starting point is 00:53:16 I have cells? What do I deliver them? I don't know! Ah! Shit! You put up a fight though. Because the thing is, one of them was a healer, right? So you're...
Starting point is 00:53:28 Yeah, they're getting... You're in a pocket mercy, man. Yeah. This goddamn dup is at a pocket mercy. You're lasting for a while there. Son of a bitch. Somebody says, is this Xbox? Yes, it is Xbox.
Starting point is 00:53:38 The game's also coming on on PC. Yeah. So it's not coming on on PS4 at all? No, because it's a Microsoft game. Freak on Elite. Yeah. Oh, yeah, that's right. I guess you're kind of forgot about that.
Starting point is 00:53:49 Yeah. See, as the number of those game journalists, I got my ears in all these different, like, circle. Oh, we only have two players. Two of our players quit, bro. Hey, I mean, it's still a close match, man. Are you fucking kidding? Yeah, dude, 28 to 6. 28 to 6?
Starting point is 00:54:01 You got a chance. 296. This game's already turning into that, dude. It just started, man. If we weren't streaming, just quit out. This match is like, no, it's over. I don't got time for this. Leave me alone.
Starting point is 00:54:20 This would have fun. Fucking shit, dude. Ah! Fuck! Yeah, ATW is saying lock on with left trigger before you use the lunge move. Oh, yeah, yeah. I've been locked down to this little fool,
Starting point is 00:54:33 this little freak on unleash. Okay, what's up? Oh, my fingers slipping, dude. Crazy. Whoa, no. Wow, that sucks, man. That's unfortunate, yeah, sometimes you click the wrong button
Starting point is 00:54:43 and that happens. Yeah, it's a new controller. It's still being calibrated and stuff. Oh, you probably hit the paddles. Yeah, it was probably programmed to do that. Yeah. I thought I heard something there. That's unfortunate.
Starting point is 00:54:50 Bluetooth. Yeah. The other thing is, I want this game to be, to be excellent, but so far, it is like the, one, it's hard to kill people, right?
Starting point is 00:55:00 It's one of those things where people have a lot of health, and it seems like you, it's a lot of, ship damage, but it doesn't feel satisfying to, like, have those one-on-one encounters. Well, so, so, so I feel like we kind of felt that way, what, eight minutes ago? Where I was like, you know, is this satisfying yet?
Starting point is 00:55:19 Taking on those guys, I was so close to getting that kill and I would have been so excited. Yeah, if you got those? Okay. But, like, we just couldn't pull it together. As a team we went out there, we couldn't get the job done. At the end of the day, you know, it falls on me. It falls on the coaches, coaching staff here. You know, we got to go out there harder next time
Starting point is 00:55:34 and just practice and prepare more. It's part of the process. It's how football is, you know? What mindset are you having in the locker room that you need to breaking back onto the field, Andy? Yeah, you know, you just got to go out there and prepare more. You know, it's all about practicing and getting out there and getting better.
Starting point is 00:55:48 You know, you want to play a better game. I go into my Andrew Luck voice all the time. You want to prepare better. You know, you want to play a better game. Let's see. I'm going to be this man. Makoot. Man, I like his, uh, he's cool as shit.
Starting point is 00:56:08 Yeah. This he has a swag to him. Yeah. And he has like a belly that rolls. That's what I'm saying, dude. This game is very innovative, stylishly. Yeah, I feel, dude, that's, that's a term. Innovative stylish. I like that. Red, uh, shining bands.
Starting point is 00:56:25 Now like, so is he, he's just ahead? I think so. Like, right, at the end of the day, he's just ahead. Is he, he could be the ball. I never selected my ability, sorry. I imagine that rolling ball is the power source, the powers the rest of the team. He's got legs too. Yeah, no, his leg.
Starting point is 00:56:43 Whoa. Whoa, that's cool. He's like the exorcist. Yes, exactly like that. Oh, he can heal himself. This little freaking agent can heal himself. This guy gets it. I like him.
Starting point is 00:57:00 Oh, that's sick. Okay. So he's kind of like, Lucio. He's got a healing movement. What the fuck? He's like a tank though. Oh fuck. No, but I mean like in terms of like healing yourself Yeah, I'm a leash. See like I could switch if I hit right right trigger Oh, I can't dodge. I see that's what you sort of sacrifice with this guy. You cannot do an evade move because right trigger is Switching between your fast speed or heels gotcha very lucio like oh so he is like lucia. Yeah, yeah, gotcha again this dude just kind of chilling back
Starting point is 00:57:38 very nice little situation he's got himself in. Do we sell four players we do? Great. That's great. You gotta capture them objectives. That's great for us. People are comparing him to Roadhog. I mean, he looks like Roadhog, but that's about it. I guess Rodhog heals himself. But Roadhog doesn't have a speed boost or anything. I'm gonna jump on this little pool. It's a little free. I didn't do what I wanted to do there, actually.
Starting point is 00:58:13 Oh no. I didn't like that very much. What was Perry again, RT? If you're standing still RT, but I don't know if it's just that one character, because he's like a samurai. Oh, because this is a different move, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you're probably right.
Starting point is 00:58:29 I don't know if it's only that character. I think multiple characters have Perry. They're staying still oppressed RT. I already don't love this, dude. I'm switching back to this man. Because I want to get a kill with El Vasado. Overload. Let me read his moves again one more time.
Starting point is 00:58:47 Life support overloads. dealing constant damage to the line. Okay. Gotcha. So we're getting our asses whipped again and I think a big part of it is just on me. Like I think I'm a big reason for that. I'm gonna say every match so far. Oh, gamer! We've been on the losing side.
Starting point is 00:59:03 That was pro gamer moves right there, dude. God damn, dude. Dude, I like this guy. He's sick, dude. This guy is super sick. He moves like a Dark Souls character. With them big slow swings. So let me lock onto this dude.
Starting point is 00:59:18 Bam, bitch! Man, I'm gonna go home place more blood-borne Oh, oh, you bitch This guy is just... This guy is just... Oh, he said to a little healing thing for him. Aw, you little freak. Yeah, so there's a lot of team aspects.
Starting point is 00:59:34 I wish... Let's get this guy! Yeah, fuck you, bitch! Go to hell! I wish I had my own mini-tivis so I can play with you because I feel like those team tracks go a long way. Oh, fuck me. Oh, Jesus, fuck.
Starting point is 00:59:50 Oh, they got us right where they want us. Get run get in there bro off whoa Wow that put that is a May I's yeah that's unfortunate because I hate that Maywall Whoa He went invisible scary Oh we got well we got him soloed out let's get in there Oh my god
Starting point is 01:00:13 Like you keep getting so close to murdering these people I know I'm going to I'm going to bless Maybe I'm not I'm gonna die I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead Their compages so good. They're playing good team ball right now. Yeah. They're playing good team ball.
Starting point is 01:00:28 Whoa, that was a cool little slow-mo move to show me dying. Way to showcase my death. Magic salmon in chess says the attacks are pretty weak. That's what I'm saying. Like, I feel like it takes forever to try and put somebody down. Yeah. Which could be fun in theory, but I feel like there's not the snackiness, you know, where it makes that satisfying. I feel like I have to keep chasing people down and like...
Starting point is 01:00:51 Let's get this guy. He's so close! See, like that right there, it's like, man. It's so annoying, man. Like, you have to keep chasing people down. It's frustrating. It's what it is. By the time you catch him, they're already healed up.
Starting point is 01:01:00 Yeah, that's fucking frustrating, dude. I mean, again, this is just a beta, though, so there might be like... Yeah, there could be more balanced. Yeah, for sure. I'm sure they're hearing a lot of feedback right now. So I don't want to give it too much flak. Get him, Andy. Get him.
Starting point is 01:01:15 Oh, man, he's yours. Oh, you piece of shit. You fucking bitch! Oh, man. Oh, I'm gonna... Howard for audio listeners now. Now I'm in their territory. I'm screwed now. Who's the dummy now? Me. I'm the dummy. Played me like a damn Phil. For audio listeners, he went back into his own respawn point, enemies can't go into. At this point, audio listeners, just switch the video.
Starting point is 01:01:37 Oh my God, I'm so salty, dude. He knew what he was doing, too. Oh, wow. See, this girl's played a lot before. White Mamba here says, need a combo specials to do more damage, and you don't have to chase. The main thing is the team work. Yeah, and that's the thing. Like, I feel like having teammates goes a long way. Yeah, for sure. I do like the idea of comboing specials. But I feel like I was trying that a little bit when I wasn't too successful. But I also am not too familiar with the specials and so. Jesus, I'm getting worked. Like, I No, okay, I guess that isn't Perry for everybody. I guess it maybe it only is the ninja guy.
Starting point is 01:02:28 Is it? Controls, input mapping, attack special. Yeah, I guess Perry's maybe only for that one dude. Yeah. I don't know. No, it's not cool at all, okay? We're getting our asses whoop, dude. Let's go to B, everybody, focus. There's that Maywall. Oh, way to put up the wall! Way to put up the wall! Stop me from attacking. Selfish, dude. That is very much like, verbatim. They played Overwatch, and they were like, Yeah. Let's just take this one. It's not even trying to mask it. It's not act like it's not an Overse thing. Let's just take this wall and use it. Get her. Get this son of a gun. Get this son of a gun, dude. I want her. I want her. I want her.
Starting point is 01:03:11 I want her dead dude. Where's my team at, dude? What's going on here? And also, why do I feel like I'm just stuck? Is this just this ability that I'm stuck in? Yeah. I feel like it's their little area thing. Oh, this little freaking nature.
Starting point is 01:03:26 He's so low. He's so low, bro. You got this. You got him. This piece of garbage. I fucking hate this game, dude. Dizaru says for a combo melee game, I would have thought this would be more 1v1, less ganging up IMO.
Starting point is 01:03:39 I think I had a similar thought going in, but it seems like this is very much like you want to You want to use your team. You want to stick together. Whoever's coordinating the best. I'm going to hunt down the soft demon. I'm tired of this motherfucker, dude. This person has ruined my life.
Starting point is 01:03:55 Hunt them down. One way too many times. You got this, bro. I believe in you. I'm pissed, dude. Yeah, I was going to say, you can capture that point. Free point, dude. Free from me.
Starting point is 01:04:05 Stay over there, dude. Stay over there. Oh, they're coming off. Fuck, guys. What do I do? I mean, our guy just got destroyed. Pippo Ryu says this reminds me of anarchy rains. I can see that.
Starting point is 01:04:17 I always went to play anarchy rains. I never got to play it. But it has similar vibes. This definitely has anarchy rains vibes. Get the hell. Oh God. Oh God. Oh, God. Oh, God.
Starting point is 01:04:28 Oh, God. Get the hell. Fuck my face. Damn. Where's my team? You know? No, I know, man. I know.
Starting point is 01:04:34 Jesus. I'm with you. Oh, damn it, dude. Want me to chop in? Get the fuck in there. Yeah, man. I feel like I can make a change. Obama, wait.
Starting point is 01:04:44 Mm-hmm. Hope. Hope. A hope. A chance. Yes, we can. That's from the World of Warcraft South Park episode. Great episode.
Starting point is 01:04:58 Oh, look at that. That little freak of nature. Hold RB. Hit RB when that dude's locked on and suck him off. What? Jesus, man. Oh, he's gonna track him back to his thing. I already know the strats.
Starting point is 01:05:09 You got point B, go to, maybe move to C since, or... Well, they're gonna try to. Man, like, if you're playing with friends, you're communicating and you're like, everybody, you're calling out the dude. Basardo, Basardo, Basseado, out of though you know may one may one may one fair fair fair fair very div do you know what I mean oh shoot I have this piece of your good on hell dude I'm sick of this squad I'm sick of this goddamn team down on D-pad is communication ping interesting really yeah oh oh oh oh my god where's your team I don't know man what are these
Starting point is 01:05:50 losers doing? I'm not here alone man. These guys ever played a video game in their life? I'm sick of this shit dude. Co-gaming! We got this man, we got this. We're not too far behind, you know, we're only... Oh man. Look, as long, hey, you both had three digits. It's true. You know? It's true. Look, right here is where like multiple people you gang up on the big tank. You gang up on Zaria right here. We'll move with the pink hair. But the other, you guys. But they're just not listening. They're not hearing you.
Starting point is 01:06:27 They're not. You know? Hit Y, hit Y. Oh, yeah, and they all just die. Sucker off. Yeah. Stop it. You need, like, they need to be healing you.
Starting point is 01:06:36 They are healing you, it looks like, but just not very much. Oh, man, they really went for me. All right, I'm changing characters. I need somebody quick. I need somebody fast. I need that Genji boy. Can both play on one console split screen? I don't believe so now.
Starting point is 01:06:48 No. Like split screen? No. Let's tear it up. Is there already a tank? Uh... So you don't have a tank, but who gives a shit? Because this team doesn't even care.
Starting point is 01:07:02 Yeah, NSX suggested. This team doesn't give a goddamn dude. No. They need me on DPS, trust me. Yeah. This is useless squad. I swear, dude. I'm gonna report them all, dude.
Starting point is 01:07:13 Report them of Phil Spencer directly. I've got connections. Oh, fucking shit. Never mind. It's close. It's a close game. It's a good comeback at the end. Yeah, we try to get there.
Starting point is 01:07:24 Okay, I want to do one more, and then we'll call it today. I'll fucking... Because I have some hope. You can call it. I'll call it a franchise. It's getting dead already, bro. I'm pissed. Calling it now.
Starting point is 01:07:34 Battleboy two. Dead on arrival, bro. Man, more like Brink. Am I right? But if I get good with it, then it's really good. You remember Brink? Did you ever try out of Brink? Hell yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:43 Dude. I've never gone from... That was like the first... To just disappointment so fast. I bought that shit used at Best Buy when I worked there. And that is a... I feel like that was kind of one of the... The games that a lot of these other hero shooters and stuff kind of took influence from in terms of aesthetic where it was very stylized cartoony humans.
Starting point is 01:08:06 Yeah, their proportions were very, you know, cartoon-like. It looked really sick. Yeah, dude, I was all in for Brink. I was like, dude, free running with this style? I guess Team Fortress too did the same thing. True, yeah, that's a good point. Yeah, Team Fortress. That was like the start of it started.
Starting point is 01:08:20 But yeah, Brink was like probably one of the first ones to be like, oh yeah, let's jock that. Let's do our own thing. And it looked amazing, right? It's published by Bethesda, all this stuff, which I guess this is the same era as wet in other games. Yeah. But still, like, that trailer had me sold. And then I tried out the game and I was like, this game is literal trash. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:40 I'm about to use this disc for a frisbee. Frisbee golf. It's not good. Yeah, it quickly went on sale. Oh, yeah. I remember it, like, being one of those games. It just was not moving units. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:53 The game's logo is fired, too. I agree. Everything visually about this. Man being in that presentation was five. They have nailed everything in terms of aesthetic. At the very least, I'll say this game is better than Brink. Sure. Because Brink was not good.
Starting point is 01:09:04 Sure. Brink played pretty badly. But here's the thing. Imagine if this game had fucking cool. It had guns. Oh, man. Oh, had guns, yeah. But it's first person view.
Starting point is 01:09:16 And you shoot the other team. And you can do free running. Yeah, and you get snip. Let me tell you about this game, Andy. I don't know if it was a game called Overwatch. Out now on all platforms. been out for a while. Am I just jumping into the middle of matches?
Starting point is 01:09:29 Yeah. Is that we been doing that the whole time? You are filling, dude. You are feeling right now. You're down 30 to 10. Somebody quit. We have not been doing that the whole time, but this seems like one of those.
Starting point is 01:09:39 Because I feel like they just matches to start. Are you going to- You're fucking dead! You're fucking dead! You're going, cuz! Go to hell! We should know about that. A hell in a handbasket.
Starting point is 01:09:48 Man. Fucking woman with the sexy robot legs. There's chicken legs. God, fucking just put me in between them thighs, you know what I mean? I know exactly what you mean, bro. Take that, she has no idea of, fuck, now she does. Yeah, no, she knew exactly what she got a good idea.
Starting point is 01:10:01 She knew the vibes. Yeah. She knew the vibes so quick. She, she, yeah. She was like, opposition? No, man. Fucking download complete her. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:10 I really can see, like, people's outlines through the walls. Tipo Rieu says you sent that dude to Merck City. Oh, exactly. Thank you. See, I. Population 1, them, you know? Exactly. Oh, that's perfect.
Starting point is 01:10:27 Panzer G, you nailed it. Panzer G2. This game reminds you a lot of Paragon. Oh, yeah. That's a game I was trying to think of when I was talking about different mobas and stuff like that. Or it's essentially a league Dota-style game but in third-person action view. Oh, there's another game like that that was it gigantic maybe? I think it was gigantic.
Starting point is 01:10:51 Similar vibe. Oh, bro. Okay, well, nope. Oh, she's so scary. I need a teammate. Oh, the Raptor ladies coming after you. Oh, you're taking. Clever girl.
Starting point is 01:11:01 Yeah, I think those are ultimate. It's one of those things where once you see more than one other player and you're just alone, it's like, oh, no, it's not a good place to be. Smite. Smite was one I was thinking of. It reminds you of Paragon aesthetically, guys. Like a third-person moba is what I was trying to get at. I'm not talking about combat or gameplay or anything like that. It's a third-person moba.
Starting point is 01:11:23 I think are butt plugs here. Has the butt plug been delivered? No. We got the tails hat. Smite. Smite's a good one, too. Still in Idaho, bless you. Still in Idaho?
Starting point is 01:11:36 Man, it's liars on Amazon. Actually, I don't think it was Amazon. Come at me to cowards. You can't hide in the shadows. God, she's so scary, dude. She's so fast. No, she's coming after your bitch, she's. You're dead, bro.
Starting point is 01:11:53 Oh, my God. Oh my God. Where is your team? For real. Where is my team? The guy just popped up there. No, never mind. No, you are all alone.
Starting point is 01:12:04 Run away. Invisible. Fuck, no, it's over. Yeah, it was... It was over from the get-go. I think we have killed a combined, like, three people. Yeah. I think four. Because you killed...
Starting point is 01:12:16 Did you kill two? How many do you kill? No, I didn't kill two. I delivered two things. Who was this fucking weird? God damn... I killed at least two. I killed at least two.
Starting point is 01:12:27 There was the old lady in the witch hat. She's cool looking. Mave? Yeah. Hi, Alyssa. Hi, Lisa. We killed at least two people, though. I think it combined.
Starting point is 01:12:35 I don't believe you, dude. I need video proof. Because there was one person in this match and there was another person in the other match. Is that hitching in-gamer on stream? So it could be the game or it could be our awful internet. Two choices. Our connection is fine, but... So our connection to the internet's good, but that doesn't mean we're getting good download speeds or upload speeds.
Starting point is 01:12:54 Because I feel like sometimes our Wi-Fi just kind of hitches sometimes for no reason. I'm watching on this computer over here on Twitch. It looks good. All right. See, this is where I would communicate with my team. be like we're going, damn it, I accidentally used it.
Starting point is 01:13:07 I was trying to do the ping thing. Plus, no. You fucking idiot. I was trying to do the ping because somebody said there was a communication ping and I was like, see,
Starting point is 01:13:16 this is where I'll say, go to C. And I accidentally pressed LB. Freaking A. That reminds you when I was playing Overwatch with Chloe one time on stream. And I was just like hiding in a room as Reaper waiting to alt
Starting point is 01:13:28 and I just alted in an empty room on accident. It was so, I mean, it doesn't matter because I still got, gold damage like always I'm always just so fucking good stream looks good game does not yeah well uh yeah like this sort of hitching yeah that was hitching yeah and it reminds me of when
Starting point is 01:13:54 you play a nintendo online game where you know i feel like nintendo's issue is not really they do the thing where if somebody's internet is bad it ruins the internet for or ruins the game for everybody else like they don't even have do they have a support player i guess they have to Oh, one hit, one hit. She's one, she's one. Yeah, you got her. Nice, nice, nice. Chicken Lake. Oster's lady. She's one. She's one.
Starting point is 01:14:24 She's half, she's half. Oh, you're getting destroyed. You're getting destroyed by the goddamn really hot from Zelda. What do they call? The big red ladies? The Garudo. She's like a Garudo, yeah. Look at this little woman.
Starting point is 01:14:40 She's really scary. Yeah, if I saw that in like Bloodmore, something I'd run the other way. Like, I feel like they were creating, uh, like they had a, uh, just a lottery,
Starting point is 01:14:53 uh, a lottery thing, right? And they're just picking out like, all right, there's a balloon. All right, here's an old lady. And they're just like,
Starting point is 01:14:59 getting all these different aspects from how to build the character. It's like, uh, the South Park episode of like how they write a family guy. Like, it's the dolphins and they're just like, the ball like comes in. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 01:15:10 That's what it reminds you of. All right, there's a balloon attached to an old lady. She's got a half. hat and she kind of climbs around like a monkey put it together like that oh alright we got this guy named cool Greg
Starting point is 01:15:26 ninjas are a thing too put those together oh you coward you coward yeah you coward wow you're so fast chase them all the way back to respawn dude so that's kind of her one of her passives I think you play hers and she has
Starting point is 01:15:39 she can close in on enemies she can you know run down enemies damn again another really good close game What's happening? Come on, coward. Oh, I'm getting... Why? What the hell was that?
Starting point is 01:15:53 I don't know. What happened? I think their ability was to, like, put the point on fire, but... Why was it... No, thank you. Don't like that very much. Not a big... Not a big fan of that.
Starting point is 01:16:11 Nice. Let's try that again. It's an arena effect, I see. Yeah. So it wasn't activated by another player. No. Oh my god. Yeah, like... Oh no. Shuriken. Shuriken. Damn it got nobody. Wait, no, not another freaking arena effect. Shuriken! I'm backseat gaming over here. It's bullshit. This game, bro. Where's your team, dude? Where is the team? Oh, so you can push a button to set it on fire, says creative...
Starting point is 01:16:58 Oh. I'm sure there's a little pop-up notify or something like that possibly this angle though fucking follow me fucking set me free oh you're about to get alted or is that you all no oh Jesus again you're I don't even think you have a healer or do you get these hands where oh yeah I need a healer right now yeah you might want to go healer you're left Oh, there you go. There you go. So audio listens, he just got hell.
Starting point is 01:17:35 He was low hell. He was low hell. Easy. I've got you in my science. Yeah. Let's just play some Overwatch, guys. Yeah, you fucking kill that shit, bro. Oh.
Starting point is 01:17:54 Blessing, are we playing an Apex tonight? What's it? Dude, I'm now playing some Apex. What's up? They have the Valentine's Day event going on. Actually, I might be watching Sonic again. Yeah. Doing God's work. Doing God's work.
Starting point is 01:18:07 Doing God's duty. Watched Sonic. So she's super squishy. Based on her description, like she can get killed pretty easily. Yeah, which is always running away. She's so high output.
Starting point is 01:18:17 Oh, she's so fast. She misses hell. So scary. Motherfucking follow me. There's no point of that. Oh, Jesus. Get away. I don't want that smoke.
Starting point is 01:18:31 Bless. Get away. We're good. We good, because we good. Ah, we good. I want no. Oh, shit. They're everywhere.
Starting point is 01:18:40 Like, where is everybody right now? Wait, did that work? Oh, let's go. Oh, yeah, nice. That's cool. So right now the point is like uncontested. It's nobody's point. Oh, you're dead.
Starting point is 01:18:53 Let me play. Let me be, let's try to be a healer. Oh, the game's about to end anyway. It's already 500 to 300. I mean, we could do another game. I'm not rushing to end. I kind of want to do one more game. All right, let's do another game after this.
Starting point is 01:19:03 This game's about to end. This one from being informative to us being like, all right, let's just do one more. We got this. So somebody is a healer. It looked like. I'm going to go back to this Iron Maiden looking man. I like his sort of demeanor. The way he jumps.
Starting point is 01:19:24 Oh, you know what that looked like? Did you see that clip where the dude was skateboarding and he hit the hose and he just flew forward? Oh, yeah, I did see that. Yeah. That's what that looked up right there. Dude, I rewatch that clip maybe like 20 times because I was trying to figure out. I had to like freaking do like the time by time thing like frame it and be like, okay, what was wrong? what happened here.
Starting point is 01:19:45 Oh shit. Wow, what is going on? This is laggy as fuck. Oh, runaway, bro. Oh, run away. Oh, run away. Oh, what a perfect. What a perfect dodge right there.
Starting point is 01:20:05 I mean, you can come get me all the way back over. Oh, shit. They're about to die. Maybe I should go double heels. That might be, I mean, that might be a valid strategy, right? Yeah. Two and two. I'm going to go to this boy.
Starting point is 01:20:18 What was it called the Overwatch 2-2-2 thing? Not cats. Goats? Goats? Goats was 3-3. 3-3. Triple support, triple tank. Ah, got you.
Starting point is 01:20:28 Yeah, dude, go goats. All right, so this dude, Y is heel, I believe. Mount up. Taka-a-T-T-Kin. Dude, we're coming back, bro. Like, 8. I mean, it's not over.
Starting point is 01:20:48 It's not over. It's not over. Got a minute six left. the gap isn't that crazy I'm just trying to get to my dudes although I think the goal is 600 so you guys gotta play some
Starting point is 01:20:58 I'm heal I'm healing I'm healing healing healing healing healing heal you got heels you got heels you got heels you got heels you got heels you got heels you got heels you got heels somebody said I can't tell is this cell shaded I wouldn't say this is cell shaded I mean it's like it's like cartoon it has a cartoon outline every character does not really like
Starting point is 01:21:14 cell shaded looks more like borderlands than this although oh we lost shit might be like slightly self-shaded. I honestly can't tell. No, I don't think it's self-shaded. No. When you look at the close-ups of the characters, they all kind of have these outlines,
Starting point is 01:21:31 but that's kind of where it ends, I believe. Hell yeah, play that dub step. We are in 2008 right now. All right, so we're going to do one, I know I said one more match before. We're going to do another match. I'm going to go, I'm going to go heels. I'm going to go heels. You're going to go heels? Yeah. Let's do it. Somebody asked what's the story of this game?
Starting point is 01:21:50 or what's the somebody fill them in, right? We're playing Bleeding Edge. It's a 4B4 multiplayer PVP melee combat game. Moba. Moba, but I feel like
Starting point is 01:22:03 I think if you just say it's a 4V4 hero-based fighting game. Yeah, that's kind of more what it is. Because like mobile, I feel like you kind of associate with like having minions and lanes.
Starting point is 01:22:14 And there's no lanes in this game and you don't have your minions, right? You just kind of go to the objective. Yeah. Tank, heals, damage. Yeah, it's like Overwatch where there's different modes, like different maps have different objectives. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:29 And you're just trying to fulfill that objective. How good does this controller feel, though, bless? It feels different. I don't know how I feel like. Maybe it's just, I've got to learn the paddles. Or it might, because I have it on a higher tension, to where it's a little bit of tough. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:40 I like the higher tension. I like when the game pushes back and says, no, sir. Is this actual last match? Or how many last matches are we doing this? This is the last match? A pro pro pro pro pro pro pro pro pro pro So there are No I'm just giving you guys this
Starting point is 01:22:56 Somebody said hero brawler That sounds about right It's a hero fighter Yeah fighter is a weird term Because I don't want to get this confused Like a fighting game We've once again been put on a team That it's getting their asses
Starting point is 01:23:09 Oh you were in the middle of it But I'm healing this dude And you better fucking do the thing You better kick ass bro I think hero brawler is a great way to describe this You've got heels you got a pocket heel You take his ass down heal him and like also take the point man
Starting point is 01:23:23 somebody said how about Gotham City Impostors right guys dude I played Gotham City Impostors for good two days I never tried it man I tried it and I was like this is a weird thing What was that like 2012 or something like that Yeah that sounds about right 2012 2012 2011
Starting point is 01:23:39 Get out of the way train I want to help this guy down there Fuck they could put out a new Gotham City Impostors and I feel like it do well today I remember that being announced I remember that being announced and it was like shortly after Arkham City and I was bummed that it wasn't an Arkham sequel. Dude, such a weird... Weird idea.
Starting point is 01:24:02 Very weird idea. Yeah. I'm the healing these dudes and they're not supporting me. You know? They're not treating you. I am their support, but they need to be my support as well, you know? Relationships go both ways. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:24:17 Hey, we're coming back though, dude. Again, if you have somebody who's like... You are coming back. If you have somebody who's like, I'm gonna heal you this whole match and I'm going to be dedicated to that role. The odds are you're gonna win. Like if this ninja dude decides to do anything, decides to be worth a damn. Oh, here's the wall. Oh, yeah, I fucked up. I put up the wall. I didn't mean to. Alright, let's get back through there.
Starting point is 01:24:51 Oh, I need... Alright, here we go, here we go. Alright, kill this dude, please. Kill this dude, please. Kill him. And I can shoot him too, you know, see what I'm saying? Pretty cool. Oh, she's so low. About to die. Ha ha, dead bitch!
Starting point is 01:25:22 What's the point that's available? C is, yeah. I mean, we're right here, baby. Yeah, you're right there, you got it. Where is it? If it feels good to heal people also. Yeah, man. Like, if you're doing a job, you're doing a damn, you're doing a job.
Starting point is 01:25:41 Yeah. Like, where's this freaking nature going? Like, you're sending people up to- Let's take his ass down. Oh, yeah, see, this is what I'm talking about. This is what I... You see? This is how you play the game!
Starting point is 01:25:53 You guys, you guys are taking the lead. Oh shit, she's alting. You know what I mean? You attack when you need to you heal when you can. Where's the rest of our team at though? That's a big problem Oh Jesus. A giant-ass train. We're dead. We're dead. Oh man. The train got in the fucking way. Oh, we go to the right. You can jump over. Oh, oh my god Nice. Sick. That's funny. That's hilarious. Oh, they're taking it back. Like we're like for a where's my team guys? Where are they? You know? They're all killed.
Starting point is 01:26:30 Two of, three, yeah, two of them just respond. I'm just sick. They all just respond. And they're picking different heroes now. Yeah. I need to just, like, be in getaway mode so they don't try to pick me off at the last second. They're all coming after me right now. They're all behind me.
Starting point is 01:26:44 Oh my gosh. Son of a bitch. I need to go find. They're still chasing you? I need to go find my squad. They're definitely still chasing you. Yeah, they are. All right.
Starting point is 01:26:55 Hey, where are you going? Oh, no, they're right there. We need to go to point. Wait, well, oh, oh, they're definitely. There isn't a point available yet. Dude, we have the lead. The point, the two of the points are about to go live. We have the lead.
Starting point is 01:27:04 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Two points are going live right now. We need to get to a point right now. Where the fuck are these points at? Oh, up here. Right? No, no, no, no, no. That's a home base.
Starting point is 01:27:14 Yeah, you gotta go downwards. You gotta go this way, yeah. It's right there. That's B, and then if you hang A right, you'll go to A, but you don't want to go there by yourself. No, I put up a while. I didn't mean to. Sorry, I put a ball.
Starting point is 01:27:37 I didn't mean to. Again, we're playing Bleeding Edge on Xbox One. Game releases March 24th, 2020. Get out of the wall, you fucking loser? Published by Xbox Game Studios developed by Ninja Theory developers with Hell Blade and other great games. Ah, I keep putting up this stupid wall and I don't mean to, man. Oh, I trapped this out back there.

Starting point is 01:29:44 There we go, we got it. We got his ass. I was going to say if he didn't go down. You would have just have to turn this game off. We got two points. We got two points up right now. They're hacking point B. Are they?

Starting point is 01:30:19 I want to stagger his bitch ass so bad. Nah, I think I'm a... The attacks are too far away that they're not even locking on anymore. Oh, man. You guys are... right there. We're right there, guys. We're right there. We're going to win this one, man. I got a good feeling about it, dude. So audio listeners, I apologize. We're deep in it now. We're deep in audio. We're deep in it, right? This isn't about learning the game anymore. It looks like B just opened, by the way.
Starting point is 01:30:43 Yeah. What was that, Bair? It looks like B just opened. Yeah, B is open. We got to get there. And now I've got to go help out these little freaks of nature, heal them up, but they're getting too far away. This is where I'd say, back out, back out, back out. Oh, they have like a little ability that's a, uh... Watch, we're gonna solo these two dudes, dude. Freak on a leash, freak on a leash. Why? He's gotta protect you.
Starting point is 01:31:15 There we go. Freak on a leash. Ah! It's okay, it's okay. You're in there. You're still going. Andy just dead. Each jump will use and evade.

Starting point is 01:33:44 Last time I checked you get it's still in the lead. Barely, but you're there. B is open. This is open. This is the last. This is the one. This is the one. This is the one, bro. This is the one right in the middle, dude. The fur the whole inch of la la, the whole tamale. They have no heels and they're going down. Borela. But holes are tight. It looks like we had, dude. We're going to win this, dude. We're going to win this, bro. Oh, they're coming. You're lonely. They're coming for you. Yeah, but we have full squad right here. Oh, here we got full squad, baby. Oh, that was like an adventures moment right there. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:17 Oh, no, they took it. I mean, I thought they were all coming. Where is your team? Yeah, bro. That's what I'm saying, bro. Oh, you guys are... Let's go. We end on a V, people.
Starting point is 01:34:31 And I had a super right there that I was about to use, just overwhelm these guys. Look, I set up a wall. Didn't matter. You know what I mean? Get the hell out of here, dude. Look at that. God. Damn.
Starting point is 01:34:40 Best game ever, man. That was a great video game. Now that, I mean, now that you play the game where you, where you're, feels like you know the loop, you got the, you got an idea of what direction the character is supposed to go, all this stuff, right? How do you feel? Like, that's one reason why I love playing support because you keep your team up and there's a level of cohesiveness, but it felt like when you and I were trying out DPS or tank, the heels just weren't there. Yeah. And that is like, that's not the game's fault. That's more of a, that's a player communication thing, you know.
Starting point is 01:35:11 And it seems like that's going to be benefited if you have people to play this game with. Yeah. If you know that like it's like when me and my friends play overwatch online at night it's like all right i guess i'll go heal since we need heels you know and i think this game as long as you're playing with friends and there's constant communication that's where it can be fun but before that it was just rough because we were getting worked yeah it was just no level of communication now there is that little communication wheel we just didn't utilize it didn't know how to use it yeah but try to use it use my ultimate instead that's true that's true i mean you know it's it's it was fun there at the end because we won, but
Starting point is 01:35:46 you know, does that outweigh? Yeah. But like this last match though, it seems like you, like your head was in the right place, right? We got the grasp of it. We know the, we know the abilities, we know the rules, all the stuff. It seems like there was more there. There was more of a vision there at the end
Starting point is 01:36:03 because I could see clearly, you know? Do you have an urge to pick my gunner glasses? Do I have an urge to what? To pick up this game when it comes out? We'll see. We'll see. Like, again, if you guys decide to play, I'll be down to hop on for a few matches. Yeah. But I'm not
Starting point is 01:36:18 like, I got to play this now. Yeah, I think from I'll be there for the first couple days and see, you know, I'll be one of those ones where it's like, all right, let's see how this goes. Because it's on Game Pass, right? And it's $30 bucks, but I'll be picking it up on Game Pass as opposed to paying the $30. But, you know, with that accessibility, I feel like it's worth it at least
Starting point is 01:36:36 trying out for me. Do you think you're going to because I think a lot of it comes down to will you find a main? Yeah, that's true. A main that you can feel that you're super comfortable with all their abilities and their combos and stuff like that, I think that's where like somebody in chat mentioned, once you
Starting point is 01:36:52 start comboing the super abilities or just combing abilities, period, that's where the kind of the secret sauce of the game is, you know? I think my thing is like the easiest comparison for this game is Overwatch.
Starting point is 01:37:08 As we brought up a million times, right? Like this game has a lot of Overwatch elements. And I think that Overwatch kind of has, that keeps me coming back is the variety in modes and maps keeps me engaged in the way that I really in this game so far only like the capture the point modes and it seems like that's that's half the game right it seems like it's that and of course is the closed beta right and so maybe they'll be more in the end but I wasn't really feeling the um which I'm call it collect the power cells thing that didn't seem too appealing to me in the ways that like the first time I played push the payload
Starting point is 01:37:39 in Overwatch I was like oh I'm in first time I played capture the point in Overwatch I was like I'm in So far, the capture of the point in this game seems fun, but even then, like, it's not all the way fun, right? Like, it seems like there's still places where this game can improve. You know, there's time for it to improve within the next month and a half. I mean, I had a blast there at the end. Once you get a grasp with everything, I think that's where it starts to feel right. There you go.
Starting point is 01:38:05 Well, ladies and gentlemen, you can, of course, see any of the possibly play this game more over on Twitch. com. We'll see. On March, whenever this game comes out.
