1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
We're on. We're here.

2
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:03,000
We're live?

3
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:05,000
Yeah, yeah.

4
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:06,000
Thrilling.

5
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,000
Oh, God.

6
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,000
We're here.

7
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,000
Get comfortable.

8
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,000
Um, morning, everyone.

9
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,000
Afternoon, evening, wherever the fuck it is where you are.

10
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,000
Hello.

11
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,000
Where's the energy gone?

12
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Is it all gone?

13
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,000
We had a big conversation before we pressed record.

14
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:32,000
We were sort of, um, fatigued our vocal cords.

15
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,000
Spoke to you about five minutes during the last week.

16
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:36,000
That's enough.

17
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,000
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

18
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,000
Yeah, we actually haven't really spoken.

19
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:42,000
It's a common occurrence now.

20
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,000
We never do anymore.

21
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:44,000
Nah.

22
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,000
Because we're running an empire on a weekly basis.

23
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,000
It's sad because we used to talk daily.

24
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,000
Yeah, but now we talk on an hour schedule.

25
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,000
We've got two hours with each other a week.

26
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:55,000
It's more than enough.

27
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,000
It's pathetic.

28
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,000
Um, you're still playing Marvel Snap.

29
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,000
Yep.

30
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,000
You haven't got off the fucking finger.

31
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,000
It's the first time I've seen you today without being on it.

32
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,000
Yep.

33
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,000
Decent.

34
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,000
You're screwed over, Kyle.

35
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,000
Uh, yes, I snatched him.

36
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:13,000
Well, I didn't.

37
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,000
I beat him in the first game, then he beat me in the next two.

38
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,000
Oh, he actually beat you?

39
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:17,000
Oh, so he fucked you up?

40
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,000
Yeah, he fucked me.

41
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:19,000
Oh, you both kept that quiet.

42
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,000
Was that, oh.

43
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,000
Yeah.

44
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,000
Oh, dear.

45
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,000
But yeah, it was interesting.

46
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,000
We were both pooing and we were both snapping.

47
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,000
That's a good, um.

48
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,000
It's a good game.

49
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:33,000
That's a good, uh, uh, podcast to consumer interaction right there.

50
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,000
Yes.

51
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,000
Yeah, it was a quick, uh.

52
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,000
Take a shit with us and play some Snap.

53
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,000
Yeah, fight me bitch.

54
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,000
And he was like, yeah, all right.

55
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:40,000
And then that was that.

56
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,000
That was the one.

57
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,000
Decent.

58
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,000
No pay to entry, yes.

59
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,000
And then he's out of it and there's not pay to win.

60
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,000
I don't think it is.

61
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,000
He's talking bollocks.

62
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,000
You're both talking bollocks.

63
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,000
No, I don't think it is.

64
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,000
Sick game.

65
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,000
I've already played Marvel Snap and Bowlers Gate, so I have very little to offer.

66
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,000
I don't have that much to offer either.

67
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:58,000
You haven't.

68
00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,000
This is great.

69
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,000
A little bit.

70
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,000
Uh, you haven't played any Phantom Liberty yet.

71
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:08,000
No, but I did play Cyberpunk for about 30 minutes yesterday.

72
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,000
Just to get your bearings.

73
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,000
I was just doing the intro missions.

74
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:18,000
What Ashley, um, uh, has done is fully committed and deleted all of his saves.

75
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:19,000
Yep.

76
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Everything.

77
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,000
You cannot, um, you cannot get it back.

78
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,000
It's done.

79
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,000
It's gone.

80
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,000
So he forced himself into a brand new playthrough.

81
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,000
And I was talking to Mark about, why don't you just start a new game?

82
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:33,000
And I know exactly why he didn't, because I'd do the same thing after about an hour in.

83
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,000
You'd go, oh, fuck it.

84
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,000
I've got used to it now.

85
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,000
Let me jump on my actual site.

86
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,000
Well, I did start a new game.

87
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,000
And then when the new game stopped going through cutscenes, I went into the save files and

88
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,000
deleted everything because I was like, I'm going to load an old one.

89
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,000
So that's why I did that.

90
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,000
Exactly.

91
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,000
Which is fair enough.

92
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:55,000
And you've just haven't had any time to play it because boulders gate is taking up every

93
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,000
second of existence.

94
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:01,000
I have when I am child free in the evenings and the goat is the goat still the goat still

95
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,000
better than witcher.

96
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,000
Yeah.

97
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Yep.

98
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,000
Act three now.

99
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,000
Crazy.

100
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,000
So wait, hold on.

101
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,000
So it's taking you 40, 50, I'm going to 55 now.

102
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,000
But it took you 48 hours to get through like the first act.

103
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,000
It took me a long time.

104
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,000
Yeah.

105
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,000
The act two, I kind of, I didn't rush it.

106
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:23,000
But the area, I weren't fond of it just because it's one of them light, dark, dingy, dark

107
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,000
and dingy.

108
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,000
Don't go into the poison areas.

109
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,000
If you just adds to so many variables, I'm sorry.

110
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,000
I'd rather not be here.

111
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,000
Was it like, um, what was that place on Elden Ring with the Scarlet Rock?

112
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,000
Where was that fucking?

113
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,000
Yeah.

114
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,000
Not to that extent.

115
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,000
So was it still something say on it?

116
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,000
I can't remember.

117
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:44,000
But yeah, every form of software games got fucking poison swamp in it somewhere and it's

118
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,000
no different.

119
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,000
Yeah.

120
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:50,000
This is like, you've got to have a fucking lantern out and it's just fucking bollocks.

121
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,000
But it's, um, I didn't diminish anything.

122
00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:00,000
I, I, I, I'm sure I was making the mistakes, but I was like, well, when it said, if you

123
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,000
go forward here, you may not be able to come back.

124
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,000
I was like, get me out of here.

125
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,000
K Lid.

126
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,000
K Lid.

127
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,000
That's the one.

128
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,000
Oh, I remember.

129
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,000
Um, yeah, I'm with you on that one.

130
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Them dark dingy areas.

131
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,000
They always, it sounds so odd.

132
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:20,000
They always make me hyper aware that I'm playing on my own because I'm in such a, I'm in a

133
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,000
dangerous area.

134
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:27,000
It's like when I play any games with any form of horror in them, I always remember I'm completely

135
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,000
on my own here and I'm scared.

136
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,000
Hold me.

137
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,000
I don't like playing horror games.

138
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,000
No, I genuinely get scared.

139
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,000
Oh, I guess I get scared of the jump that I know I'm going to have.

140
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,000
Yeah.

141
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,000
Yeah.

142
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,000
Not the actual thing that's on the screen.

143
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:43,000
I'm always paranoid that I'm going to get scared and have a heart attack.

144
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,000
So I'm going to die.

145
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,000
I don't like it.

146
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,000
Yeah.

147
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,000
No, not that bad.

148
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,000
Sorry.

149
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:58,000
Act two is still great, but I, but also there was a second reason why I finished it quickly

150
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:03,000
and it's because I feel, I probably haven't, but I feel like I've done everything in act

151
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,000
one, like everything that was possible to do.

152
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,000
I feel like I've done it.

153
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,000
I feel like you definitely haven't.

154
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,000
I feel like I have.

155
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,000
I don't feel like I couldn't find.

156
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,000
Connor, I'm further than him, you know?

157
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,000
Yeah, but he also spent about 10 years on act one.

158
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,000
This is true.

159
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,000
He won't know what I've done.

160
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,000
So yeah, I think I've done everything in act one.

161
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,000
So I was like, well, I'm definitely going to do a second playthrough, not for a while,

162
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,000
quite a while, because my backlog is getting ridiculous.

163
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:34,000
So I want there to still be stuff that I've never seen before, just in case.

164
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,000
Obviously the stories are going to be different.

165
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,000
I'm going to take different paths, but I want there to be like actual stuff.

166
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,000
I'm like, Oh, I didn't know this was here.

167
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,000
Understandable.

168
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,000
So yeah.

169
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,000
And act three at the moment, it's fucking huge, the area and the stuff.

170
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,000
And yeah, I'm, I'm a bit overwhelmed by act three, to be honest with you.

171
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,000
That's where it happens, ladies and gentlemen.

172
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,000
Well, this is where you stop playing.

173
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,000
The overwhelmed feeling comes in.

174
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:04,000
I am overwhelmed, but it just feels like, I dunno.

175
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,000
I put myself in some fucking sticky situations.

176
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:14,000
I really did in terms of, uh, cause there's a system in it where you go, you,

177
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,000
well, you know, you go to camp, right?

178
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,000
So you can rest up to heal.

179
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:24,000
But then there's places in the game where you can't go back to camp because you

180
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,000
know, you just can't because you're locked in a design and you have to do what

181
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,000
you're doing.

182
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:33,000
Uh, so I've had myself in some situations where I can't go back to camp to heal.

183
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,000
I've got no short rest things either.

184
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:41,000
And I've got no health potions, but I have to get through this fire to proceed.

185
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:46,000
So I, and, and it's very, uh, generous in its auto-saved, auto-saves loads.

186
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:51,000
So you will never get proper stuck, but where I've committed to this, no, these

187
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:57,000
choices are the choices and this is the way I've had to like proper grind out

188
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,000
some things.

189
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:03,000
And I am blessed and grateful for the ability to be able to save during combat.

190
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:08,000
So there's been a fight where I took on some evil necromancer guy.

191
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,000
He was sick, man, like Balthazar or something.

192
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:16,000
He is a fucking cool character and I can't wait to side with him one day, but

193
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,000
this time didn't feel right.

194
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:25,000
And every fucking time we started to fight, old rain would get a barrage of

195
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:30,000
poison that is at him, but he'd done so much damage that it pretty much one, it

196
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,000
KO'd him.

197
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,000
And if it didn't, the geezer done like two more attacks after that.

198
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:39,000
Anyway, if, if he didn't, if that didn't put him down, something else did, then

199
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:43,000
there was a, after reloading, like five, six times, there was a time when he

200
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,000
didn't hit me with any of it missed.

201
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,000
Save.

202
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,000
This is now where we start the fight.

203
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,000
So it was every time like I made a bit of progress, I would get a

204
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,000
save and I had to keep doing that.

205
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:57,000
Otherwise I'm just toast.

206
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,000
There's no way.

207
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,000
Is that not saves coming?

208
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,000
I'm talking more decisions.

209
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,000
Like if, no, I'm not having that because what do you mean?

210
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,000
You're not having it because I see the anger in your eyes.

211
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,000
I'm not angry.

212
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:12,000
Just disappointed.

213
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:18,000
Uh, the only option would have been to reload a save before that and then go

214
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,000
back to camp rest and all that.

215
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,000
Otherwise I'm not getting through that fight at all because I've got no healing

216
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,000
potions.

217
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,000
Yeah, but you would have done.

218
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,000
No, I wouldn't.

219
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,000
It would have been physically important.

220
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,000
Also, all my spells were used by my healer.

221
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,000
So there was no healing available.

222
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:37,000
I had no health potions and I had to fight a fucking fat necromancer.

223
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,000
So what happened when he, when he did the abilities at Mischia and then you

224
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,000
saved, what happened after that?

225
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:48,000
Well, then I had to bang my head against the wall for about two, three hours.

226
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,000
So you technically could have done it without any saving.

227
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,000
Uh, yeah.

228
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,000
But what's the point in reloading?

229
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:56,000
Hoping he misses you.

230
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,000
I'm dead reloading, hoping he misses your arm dead.

231
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,000
I'm with you on it.

232
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,000
I'm just saying it's on air.

233
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:03,000
I see what you're saying.

234
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:04,000
It's live.

235
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,000
No, it's not what I'm saying.

236
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,000
It's what you said in that you wouldn't save scum.

237
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,000
Now to me, that's not safe scum chat.

238
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,000
What do you think we need some advice on this?

239
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,000
That sounds like safe.

240
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:17,000
I made a decision yesterday that got me thrown in jail.

241
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,000
Right.

242
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,000
And I was also in a bad situation.

243
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,000
I could have reloaded the save and not got thrown in jail and chose a different

244
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,000
option, but I didn't.

245
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,000
And I had to try and escape prison and get all my comrades and fight.

246
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,000
And it was difficult.

247
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,000
What did you do?

248
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,000
I just, what put you in jail?

249
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,000
Started on someone.

250
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,000
They started on me.

251
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:42,000
And I was like, well, you got the option to be like respectful and say, okay, I'm

252
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,000
sorry.

253
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:44,000
And blah, blah, blah.

254
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,000
Or it was like, don't talk to me like that.

255
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:46,000
And there's no way you can prison.

256
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,000
Something like that.

257
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,000
You've let the worms overtake you, haven't you?

258
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:51,000
Yeah.

259
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:52,000
And I am indulging.

260
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,000
Yeah.

261
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,000
Connor is not very impressed with that.

262
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,000
But.

263
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,000
Well, cause you let the worms take over.

264
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,000
I am becoming a lifted.

265
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,000
I am becoming squid man.

266
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,000
So what's what?

267
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,000
What?

268
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,000
Connor don't like the squid?

269
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,000
I don't think so.

270
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,000
But Connor's ginger.

271
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:06,000
So the opinion's not there.

272
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,000
Yeah, this is true.

273
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:08,000
Just keep his mouth quiet.

274
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:09,000
Burns in the sun.

275
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,000
Why don't you just shut the fuck up?

276
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,000
Shut your dirty mouth, Connor.

277
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,000
Horrible man.

278
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:22,000
So yeah, well, the problem is I've got, I'm in love with shadow heart.

279
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,000
And I don't mean like, I don't mean.

280
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,000
You don't mean like the sweaty nerdy kind of, I love her posters on the wall type.

281
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,000
No.

282
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:30,000
Yeah.

283
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,000
That's exactly what I mean.

284
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,000
I thought you didn't mean in game.

285
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,000
No, no, no, no.

286
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,000
Rain loves her, but I love her more.

287
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,000
Right.

288
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,000
Okay.

289
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,000
So I've fallen in love with her.

290
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:41,000
And Gem, Gem can.

291
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,000
He's got with his wife.

292
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,000
Gem can confirm this.

293
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,000
Yeah.

294
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,000
She's got competition.

295
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,000
I had my headphones on the other day.

296
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,000
She was doing whatever she was doing sitting on sofa.

297
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,000
Yeah.

298
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:59,000
And when I got offered the worm and I was like, oh, but shadow heart, what?

299
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,000
Cause she's like, well, I'm going to change a little bit.

300
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,000
And I thought, is she still going to love me?

301
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,000
Is she still going to care for me?

302
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:06,000
Is she still going to want me?

303
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,000
Yeah.

304
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,000
So.

305
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,000
Who offered you the worm?

306
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,000
I don't want to do like spoilers and stuff.

307
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,000
So I'm just going to, you know, but yeah.

308
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:18,000
So I was just like, well, I don't know, man, do I?

309
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,000
Don't I?

310
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,000
And the only thing stopping me really was shadow art.

311
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,000
And I was like, I fuck it.

312
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,000
I'm going to eat it.

313
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,000
So I ate it.

314
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,000
And then the first thing I did was run to shadow art and make sure she weren't like,

315
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,000
oh, you monster get away from me.

316
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:35,000
And she weren't best impressed, but I managed to persuade her to eat one too.

317
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,000
Right.

318
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:41,000
So now we're just a couple of squids doing our business.

319
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,000
Does any squid paraphernalia end up coming out of you?

320
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,000
What do you mean?

321
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,000
Why do you end up getting squid bits?

322
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:51,000
Well, I'm, I'm, it says I'm partial illithid.

323
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:55,000
So I'm not, well, I showed you a picture of what I looked like.

324
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,000
I looked like venomous, just spunked on my face.

325
00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,000
You look like a vampire.

326
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:00,000
Yeah.

327
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,000
I look, but I've got some fucking abilities now, man.

328
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,000
Gives you some cool shit.

329
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,000
Well, obviously you can eat them.

330
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,000
You have the worms anyway.

331
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,000
Oh, squiddly diddle.

332
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:13,000
And then a little bit into the game, you get the option basically to, you know,

333
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,000
eat more.

334
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:20,000
And then you get like a whole new skill set menu, which is like a,

335
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:25,000
a skill screen basically of a brain and each node is a piece of your brain.

336
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,000
And then when you pick one, once you found a tadpole,

337
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,000
it burrows into your brain is very dirty and cool.

338
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,000
But that's where like powerful abilities lie.

339
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:38,000
So I'm like on the outer ring of the powerful abilities now.

340
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,000
And I've got some fucking shadow.

341
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:42,000
Yeah.

342
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,000
Yeah.

343
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:47,000
She's, she's, yeah.

344
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:48,000
Yeah.

345
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,000
So now I've got some fucking sick abilities and a bit of a weird fringe.

346
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,000
And she says gone now.

347
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,000
Oh, you can say no, she switched herself up.

348
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:57,000
Oh, he was bugging out.

349
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:58,000
Oh, she changed it.

350
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,000
Oh, Jim Jim thinks I'm mental.

351
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,000
I was like, what you done to your hair?

352
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:07,000
I ran over and obviously I had headphones in so I can't hear how loud I'm talking.

353
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,000
And she's changed her hair.

354
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,000
Her hair is white now and she's got rid of the fringe.

355
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:12,000
And she's like, do you like my new look?

356
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,000
I love it.

357
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,000
Shadow art.

358
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:15,000
Is there a picture of it?

359
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,000
Oh, what you mean?

360
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:17,000
Fucking like that.

361
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:18,000
Yeah.

362
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,000
Yeah.

363
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,000
Shadow art.

364
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,000
Good Lord.

365
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,000
Yeah.

366
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,000
But I think that's cause I'm the decisions I've made and like I say,

367
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,000
I don't want to go into it and decisions that I've made her or not made her made,

368
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,000
help her made it's just fucking sick.

369
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,000
Sick is going to have played by some fucking distance.

370
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:37,000
I'm so powerful now, but I am regretting eating the worm.

371
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:38,000
Oh yeah.

372
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:43,000
Well, I just, I am and I'm not like, I don't like the way I look now.

373
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,000
As I say, it looks like Venom's just fucking finished all over me.

374
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:47,000
Yep.

375
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,000
Nice.

376
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:52,000
18 inches of venom, 19 inches, whatever.

377
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,000
19 inches.

378
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,000
19 inches of venom all over my face.

379
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:00,000
So yeah, I'm not, I'm not too keen on the way I look, but,

380
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,000
and also rain's a good guy, man.

381
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:07,000
He's not really, I'm not really, he's not really making terrible decisions.

382
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,000
He's doing things that he would do.

383
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,000
Right.

384
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:14,000
But the way I've got it in my head is he's trying to do the right thing.

385
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:18,000
So he's, he's, he's doing this for the greater good.

386
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Right.

387
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:23,000
And if you don't, kind of, if you don't know the story, you won't know what I mean.

388
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,000
Obviously I'm not going to go into it,

389
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:29,000
but I feel like obviously there's going to be massive fucking twists and turns still.

390
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:34,000
And I think Act 3 is like the biggest act, so I could be in it for another 50 hours.

391
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:42,000
But yeah, I do think that, because I asked Connor, I said, can I play rain in a D&D session?

392
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,000
He was like, yeah, pre-eliphage you can.

393
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,000
And it also makes me believe, two things make me believe,

394
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,000
and I don't want you to Google it and tell me I want to find out on my own,

395
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:56,000
but two things make me believe that you can turn full eliphed.

396
00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:04,000
And one is that on the, don't, on the, on the skill screen, it says literal partial eliphed.

397
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:05,000
Yeah.

398
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:06,000
Why would it say that?

399
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:07,000
Why would it say partial?

400
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,000
If there wasn't a step up.

401
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:13,000
And then two, I just feel like the way the story is, I think,

402
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,000
I don't know if you'll be able to play as it, but I think it might be like, right,

403
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:20,000
the final thing is do you want to turn into a full squid man?

404
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,000
Basically, and then everyone's just going to abandon you.

405
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:23,000
But this is fine.

406
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,000
That's fine.

407
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:25,000
That's all I need.

408
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,000
That's all I need.

409
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,000
As long as she's, well, so is my other companion.

410
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,000
Oh, they've all got the worm.

411
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,000
Well, two of them have.

412
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,000
All the other companions that I've possibly could have had really are dead.

413
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,000
So I can't, I can't really ask anyone else to eat the worms,

414
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:44,000
which is why it's so great because the stories that I've yet to be told from other companions,

415
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:48,000
or I can play as them, can fully start as them.

416
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,000
Yeah.

417
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:53,000
It's just be like a whole new story because there's like fucking three companions

418
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:58,000
that were dead within seconds of meeting me that I didn't even really have a moment with.

419
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:03,000
So it's like, I'm so excited for this game and I hope they do expansion,

420
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,000
even though there's too much to do already.

421
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,000
But there's not.

422
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,000
I want more.

423
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,000
I want it injected into my bum through my eyes.

424
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:11,000
I know the answer.

425
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,000
Well, I don't want to know.

426
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,000
But yeah, it's the best game I've ever played.

427
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:16,000
It never will be.

428
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,000
You don't want to know the answer?

429
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,000
No, I don't.

430
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:19,000
I'll tell you that.

431
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,000
Don't even look at me.

432
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:24,000
It will never be a better game than Baldur's Gate 3.

433
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,000
Because it's right here.

434
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,000
The answer is shut the fuck up.

435
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,000
Baldur's Gate 4.

436
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,000
Here I come.

437
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,000
And so does D&D.

438
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,000
Anyway, let's move on.

439
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:36,000
Do you want to know if your companions can just shut up and talk about Assassin's Creed Mirage?

440
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,000
You can't find a close it.

441
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,000
If you don't want to know, I don't know.

442
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:42,000
You don't want to know.

443
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,000
Oh, it's quiet.

444
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,000
Shut up later in.

445
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,000
Talk about Mirage.

446
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:49,000
I've closed the window.

447
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:50,000
Thank you.

448
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:51,000
But I hold the knowledge.

449
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,000
Brilliant.

450
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,000
I hold the knowledge.

451
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,000
That's good.

452
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,000
That's all I need to know.

453
00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,000
Yeah.

454
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,000
My second collector's edition of a game.

455
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:03,000
Assassin's Creed Mirage.

456
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,000
I probably brought the little statue out to show me.

457
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:06,000
But never mind.

458
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,000
Oh, fuck.

459
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:08,000
Yeah, I forgot.

460
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:09,000
I'll do it after this.

461
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,000
I'll do it after this.

462
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:14,000
Because me and Steph, that picture that I took of it and showed you, obviously she's got

463
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,000
a big old cabinet where all the stuff is.

464
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:22,000
And Bassim is with all the other Assassin's Creed figures and Ellie.

465
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:27,000
I've put two hours in because I didn't get that much time.

466
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:31,000
I did because I didn't start work until about 11 o'clock today.

467
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:38,000
I did have the anticipation of playing until the early hours last night.

468
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,000
But I was just so fucking tired.

469
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,000
So two hours is all I could manage.

470
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:45,000
And in those short two hours, I really like it.

471
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,000
What have you done?

472
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,000
Why don't you know how to figure out the head?

473
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,000
They're annoying.

474
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,000
And they, to be fair, they are a bit stupid.

475
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:54,000
Yeah, that's right.

476
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,000
You sorted it right.

477
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,000
The headphones are causing.

478
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,000
Yeah.

479
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,000
Yes, I like it.

480
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:08,000
They so playtime is about 20 hours.

481
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:15,000
Now, Mark was marked part of a platinum trophy group thing on Facebook

482
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:20,000
where people post the times that they've done a platinum on all sorts.

483
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,000
And he said someone's platinum in 23 hours.

484
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:27,000
So that leads me to believe that it could be less than 20 hours worth of gameplay.

485
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,000
And in the two hours I've played, I can see that happening because so far

486
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:35,000
the story has progressed quite a decent chunk.

487
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:40,000
This is obviously reflected in the price point because it's 45 quid brand new.

488
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,000
They're not asking 70 quid off of you.

489
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:46,000
It's a very decent game made by a very big company.

490
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:50,000
But yeah, they're not asking for big boy prices.

491
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,000
And yeah, they've gone back to their roots properly.

492
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:59,000
From what I can see, like I say, the story is not that long.

493
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,000
The area is not massive.

494
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:06,000
The free running feels fucking fantastic.

495
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:10,000
It might be because it's been a while since I played an Assassin's Creed game,

496
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:15,000
but it definitely feels better than when I played Origins 100 percent.

497
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,000
It feels so much nicer.

498
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:21,000
One gripe that I've already got is the I think a lot of people are saying

499
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,000
the voice actors are quite poor.

500
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,000
I quite like them.

501
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,000
Bassim's voice actor is a bit hit and miss,

502
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:32,000
but the facial animations are awful.

503
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,000
Oh, really?

504
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,000
They're awful. They're just not good.

505
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:42,000
How we speak or any normal person or any fucking normal game,

506
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,000
they give you the facial expressions.

507
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,000
You can tell if someone's angry, upset, sad.

508
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,000
You can see those things or when they're laughing, you're able to.

509
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,000
I always know that they can never get the eyes right, can they?

510
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,000
The eyes and the mouth sometimes.

511
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,000
Inside the mouth.

512
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,000
Yeah, always a bit odd, but you gloss over it.

513
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:04,000
This, on the other hand, it's just blank expression for majority of fucking

514
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:12,000
dialogue, which doesn't spoil it, but it is quite annoying

515
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,000
because you think you can definitely do better than this.

516
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:19,000
Like I said, I'm only two hours in, so it could get a bit better.

517
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,000
But to me, it seems like that's how it's designed.

518
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:27,000
I can't see how something like facial animations are going to progressively

519
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,000
get better within the game.

520
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,000
You know, I mean, the further you get along, it's to me, that seems like an

521
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:37,000
integrated thing that everyone's going to behave this way.

522
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:43,000
But other than that, the combat feels good.

523
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:49,000
Much more slow paced than the last couple of Assassin's Creed in a sense of

524
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:58,000
there is a proper like parrying mechanic and it is a bit hack and slashy.

525
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:03,000
But I'd imagine that's where the skills come into play on that one.

526
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,000
And yeah, just just generally much slower.

527
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,000
The stealth is decent.

528
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,000
However, it does seem the NPCs are a bit thick.

529
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:16,000
Now you can put it into hard mode where your stealth and things like that are

530
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:21,000
obviously much more there's much more smaller scope for for fucking up,

531
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:25,000
which I probably will switch over to because I started in normal just to get a

532
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,000
fucking feel for it because it is only easy, normal and hard.

533
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,000
There's no extreme hard mode or hardcore or anything like that.

534
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:36,000
But like, for example, say there's a group of enemies about 10 foot in front of

535
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:41,000
me and I'm in the typical tall grass and then you get that that glow over you to

536
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,000
say, say like you're in stealth.

537
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:47,000
You can whistle people over, which you've been able to do in pretty much every

538
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:48,000
single one.

539
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:53,000
Now, if there's a cluster of people, it would make sense that if I whistle,

540
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:57,000
everyone is going to come fucking having a little look because I can't just

541
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,000
singularly whistle to one person.

542
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,000
But no, if you whistle to someone, one person comes over.

543
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:06,000
However, everyone in that group turns around and starts fucking looking, but as

544
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,000
if they're all going to come over, which is a bit freaky.

545
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:15,000
But you can, for example, whistle someone over and then the prompt will come up

546
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:19,000
to take them down long before they're in the grass and you can take them down.

547
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:23,000
So you run out of the grass, like grab hold of snap the neck, do whatever and

548
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,000
then drag them back into the grass.

549
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,000
But I can do that in front of a load of people and it won't prompt them to come

550
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:35,000
and attack me, which on one hand makes the stealth sequences a lot easier and a

551
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:36,000
lot more manageable.

552
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,000
On the other hand, ruins the immersion side of it.

553
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,000
It's like how true do you really want to go with it?

554
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,000
I guess probably down to difficulty.

555
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:48,000
Yeah, I feel like I'll have a much better opinion of it when I play it after

556
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:52,000
this, of which I will change the difficulty on it just so that it is that

557
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,000
little bit more.

558
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:58,000
I got a couple of mates who have also said the same thing where they don't

559
00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,000
like the combat.

560
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,000
Maybe I just haven't experienced enough of it yet, but I don't mind it.

561
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:10,000
I don't know. I prefer the older style of combat of Assassin's Creed to the

562
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,000
Valhalla's and all that.

563
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:13,000
It definitely feels older style.

564
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:19,000
Because it used to be, I've got not a great memory of it, but it seemed to be

565
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:23,000
more akin to the Batman games where it was like when you...

566
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,000
Or Shadow of War type shit.

567
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:29,000
Yeah, they're about to hit me so I press the triangle and they'll block it.

568
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,000
You're hacking and slashing, but as long as you can dodge at the right time and

569
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:33,000
all that shit.

570
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:37,000
I preferred that because the combat of Valhalla and Origins and that was very

571
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,000
hack and slash, big old health bars.

572
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,000
And it was just silly.

573
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,000
It was just like geezers that were nine foot tall.

574
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,000
At the end of the day, I think what they've done in terms of going back to

575
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,000
their roots is they've definitely done that with the combat.

576
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:54,000
Yes, there's abilities there with chain assassinations where you can teleport

577
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,000
over and stuff like that.

578
00:23:55,000 --> 00:24:02,000
I see that as being the newer era of stuff melding in with the older style of

579
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:06,000
Assassin's Creed, which I haven't unlocked that stuff yet, but you can see it.

580
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,000
It's in one of the trailers, right?

581
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:09,000
Yeah, and I like it.

582
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:10,000
I like the look of it.

583
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,000
But yeah, I'm with you on that.

584
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,000
I prefer the older style of combat.

585
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:24,000
One thing that I'm not too keen on is, again, I'm running on a limited basis

586
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,000
here because I've only got two hours onto it.

587
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:31,000
But as far as I'm aware, you can't just go to like a blacksmith and buy new

588
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:32,000
weapons.

589
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:36,000
You can only upgrade the weapons that you have and it's sword and a dagger.

590
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:37,000
That's it.

591
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:42,000
But again, I have not, don't take my word for gospel on that one.

592
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,000
I have not explored this game.

593
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:49,000
So I'm going to assume I'm wrong on that and I'm just not far enough in.

594
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:55,000
But in a 18, 20 hour game, how far do you need to be in to start being able to

595
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,000
get different types of weapons?

596
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,000
Yeah, I imagine it's just the same weapon.

597
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,000
They're trying to streamline it.

598
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:06,000
I read yesterday that this was for a long time, this was actually just an

599
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,000
expansion to Valhalla.

600
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,000
And then they decided to make it a standalone game.

601
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,000
There's Transmog.

602
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,000
You can change the appearance of it in your outfits and shit like that.

603
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:23,000
It just seems like a weird choice to make because Bassim is the kind of a big

604
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:27,000
deal in Valhalla and he plays a quite a pivotal role, especially towards the end.

605
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:32,000
He's massive in the story and he's still in the whole game of Valhalla was left

606
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,000
on a cliffhanger of Bassim.

607
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:39,000
But it just seems so strange to then go back to his origin.

608
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,000
Yeah, you start right from the beginning before he's even an assassin.

609
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:47,000
When I watched the review of it yesterday, it really gave off, because it showed a

610
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:51,000
lot of the early gameplay and how the game starts off and stuff.

611
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:58,000
It really gave off like Aladdin vibes, like he's a bit of a street rat going

612
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,000
around doing bits and bobs.

613
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:04,000
It really gave me the start of Aladdin, which was cool because I like it, it's

614
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,000
my favorite Disney film.

615
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:14,000
Yeah, he starts off as you are just a thief, basically, trying to make ends meet

616
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,000
and all that shit.

617
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,000
And it just so like your typical, just so happens the person that gives you most of

618
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:26,000
your jobs is currently doing your effectively doing jobs for the assassins

619
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,000
without realizing that you're doing jobs.

620
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:34,000
And then you meet like the fucking, I think a Roshan or something like that.

621
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,000
That's not a ghost spoilery, yeah.

622
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,000
That's not spoilery.

623
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,000
That's not spoilery.

624
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,000
I'm still giving you the plot.

625
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,000
That's all right.

626
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,000
I just don't know what spoilers is not.

627
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,000
I haven't played it.

628
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:53,000
And yeah, you're that is what I like about it, because when I played things like

629
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:58,000
when I played Origins and when I played Valhalla, everything felt like it took

630
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,000
fucking forever to get involved with.

631
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,000
It does.

632
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,000
It felt far too long, far too annoying.

633
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:07,000
And this doesn't because I've been having this for myself.

634
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,000
All right.

635
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,000
Now, this Assassin's Creed is what 45 quid?

636
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:12,000
Yeah.

637
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:13,000
Yeah.

638
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:14,000
It's a short game.

639
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,000
Yep.

640
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:16,000
Good.

641
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:20,000
But comes with a physical disk as well.

642
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:21,000
Yeah, that's great.

643
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:27,000
But the argument I'm going to have with it is physical case to Spider-Man 2 is

644
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,000
apparently 15 hours long.

645
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,000
But that's 70 quid.

646
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:41,000
So it's a difficult one because I just think that 15 hours is not a lot.

647
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:45,000
But then once again, you come with the argument of if it's a really good game,

648
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:49,000
really good story, really tight, fair enough.

649
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:53,000
But then should it still be cheaper, regardless of how good the game is?

650
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:59,000
Because I wouldn't go to the cinema and watch a three hour film.

651
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,000
I would go to cinema and watch a three hour film for the price of the ticket.

652
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,000
But I wouldn't go and watch a half hour film for the same price of the ticket.

653
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:10,000
There's got to be some comparison to be had there because I'm excited for

654
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:14,000
Spider-Man 2, whether I fucking finish Boulders Gate by the time it comes out,

655
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,000
I don't know.

656
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,000
And I've got to do Phantom Liberty first.

657
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:23,000
But it just seems really short because I can do 15 hours in Boulders Gate in

658
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:24,000
like two, three nights.

659
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,000
Yeah.

660
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:26,000
You know what I mean?

661
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:34,000
It is definitely a it's a it's a weird one because I feel like with kind of

662
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:44,000
with Spider-Man, you you expect that polished near perfect experience with it,

663
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:51,000
whereas with Assassin's Creed, Ubisoft, that that start with that price point.

664
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:56,000
It's a weird is weird because I was going to say you you almost forgive if it's

665
00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:01,000
not polished, but at the same time, it should be the price shouldn't denote

666
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:05,000
whether the on the quality of of the product that you're not that you're

667
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,000
playing.

668
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:12,000
My point is, though, or my question is, should a game be cheaper if it's short?

669
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:16,000
Should that come into the price point of games in the future?

670
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,000
I feel like, yeah, maybe if the game short than yeah, because when you get

671
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:24,000
down to the actual fucking like imagine if you were putting in an invoice for

672
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:30,000
it, well, I'm giving you 15 hours worth of content that has then meant that

673
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:35,000
rather than it taking a thousand hours to make this, it's taking 500 hours.

674
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:40,000
Everything has to be scaled down, surely, if you're getting.

675
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:45,000
But again, you could argue, all right, well, I can give you a 50 hour game

676
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:50,000
and it be shit and not be as good as the up to par with the fucking game.

677
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:51,000
That's 15 hours.

678
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,000
What am I going to charge you 70 quid for this one and 45 for the better one?

679
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,000
That's where it's different.

680
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:56,000
What are you?

681
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:57,000
What are you supposed to?

682
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,000
I don't really.

683
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,000
I don't really know how they.

684
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,000
Well, there must be a bracket because there's no there's not really any

685
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:03,000
difference.

686
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,000
I have a 45 quid.

687
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,000
I have a 45.

688
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,000
No, sorry.

689
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:10,000
Usually on the very cheap ones like 35 up to 70 in it.

690
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:14,000
Yeah, I mean, any game that comes out nowadays, regardless of how good it is

691
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,000
in five is normally 60s, 70s.

692
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,000
Yeah, the only cheaper ones normally are like indie titles.

693
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,000
Standard PlayStation five game is 70 quid now.

694
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:23,000
That's just the norm.

695
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:28,000
Now is Assassin's Creed that because they're trying to win some fans back over,

696
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:32,000
get some people back in, get a cheaper price point or is it because it is a

697
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:36,000
smaller game and they're like, well, we can't really charge full price for this.

698
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:40,000
Where Spider-Man 2 is and then some maybe maybe a bit of both because I suppose

699
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,000
if you've if you've just come off the back of Origins Odyssey and Valhalla

700
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:49,000
too much massive, massive fucking games and you're charging 70 quid for each one

701
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,000
of them, you then bring out another game and then charge 70 quid for that and

702
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:56,000
people can have it done if they really wanted to a day.

703
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,000
Although I do feel like right the Valhalla.

704
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:05,000
I played Valhalla much more than I played Origins, but I think I played Odyssey.

705
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,000
I was obsessed with Odyssey for a long time.

706
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:11,000
I played over 100 hours into Odyssey.

707
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:15,000
I do feel like they get a bad rap because what they actually put into them games

708
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:16,000
is nuts.

709
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:20,000
Like the amount of light I know you don't see like the same structure more than

710
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,000
once.

711
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,000
I mean, they saw handcrafted towns and cities.

712
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,000
Now there's not a lot to do in them towns and cities, but if you like walking

713
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:31,000
around and looking at the architecture and like historical things, then it's

714
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,000
there.

715
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,000
Yes, there.

716
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,000
And I think they do get a bad rap when it comes to story.

717
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:42,000
Valhalla was balls just because it's the same thing over and over again, which

718
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,000
is sad because it's a Viking game.

719
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:45,000
That's what I want.

720
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:46,000
Yeah.

721
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:53,000
So it has a bit more actually with the novel of Valhalla, the game as well.

722
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,000
It's sad because I really wanted that to be really good.

723
00:31:55,000 --> 00:32:00,000
But the game itself was just I think they get bad raps, but they are too long,

724
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,000
too bloated, too wide.

725
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:07,000
But I also feel like this may be too short without playing it.

726
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,000
So I kind of have an opinion, but I feel somewhere in the middle.

727
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:11,000
It needs to be.

728
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,000
I see.

729
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,000
I like the fact that it's a short game because it means I'm more than

730
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,000
confident to finish it.

731
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,000
That's not me saying I'm unable to finish long games.

732
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:23,000
It's just I have a serious thing or if the game isn't holding me, I'll just

733
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,000
fuck off.

734
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:25,000
I won't bother putting the time in.

735
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,000
If I already know that I'm not interested.

736
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,000
The minute I start debating whether I'm going to finish it or not, I already

737
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,000
know that I'm not going to finish it because I'm already debating it.

738
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:38,000
Whereas a game like this where it is only X amount of hours long.

739
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,000
It's like, yeah, I can confidently.

740
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:45,000
But I suppose it all depends on how much fun you're having in the game.

741
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,000
Like the last was part two.

742
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,000
I could have swore was like a 60 hour campaign.

743
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:51,000
It's not 20 odd hours.

744
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,000
It's like 24 hours.

745
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,000
That took me over 30 definitely.

746
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:56,000
If not 40.

747
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,000
It took me a long time to finish it.

748
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,000
Admittedly, I was only playing it when Steph was around.

749
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:04,000
So that was like once once every week, like week.

750
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,000
But it's so it's like.

751
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:12,000
It's no bigger than Mirage.

752
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,000
So is it is it an issue that is that it's a short game?

753
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,000
I'm not sure.

754
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,000
Would it be an issue if I paid 70 quid?

755
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,000
Almost definitely.

756
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,000
However, I paid 130 quid for a collective edition.

757
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:24,000
It's got a fat statue with it.

758
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:30,000
Come with a with a cool map, like a broach thing, a steelbook,

759
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:35,000
a fucking physical copy of the game with the fucking physical disk as well.

760
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:39,000
So I've got both things and then some downloadable content.

761
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:43,000
As far as a collector's edition goes, it's quite decent.

762
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:44,000
Like I'm happy with it.

763
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:47,000
The only bit I didn't like about is that the box itself is quite flimsy.

764
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,000
It's very thin.

765
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:52,000
Yes, the average play time for last was part two is 20, 24 hours.

766
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:53,000
Definitely not.

767
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:54,000
Not for me.

768
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:55,000
You could swear that it's long longer.

769
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,000
It definitely was longer for me because I could have.

770
00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:01,000
I could have swore I put about 20 hours into the first half.

771
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:05,000
And then when the second half started, I was like, for fuck's sake.

772
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:09,000
And I could have swore I googled it and it said like, yeah, you're there for about 30 hours.

773
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,000
I was like, where was I getting my info from then?

774
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,000
Because I remember it being a lot longer.

775
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:16,000
I definitely put in more than 30, 100 percent.

776
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,000
Maybe I'm just slow.

777
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:23,000
But yeah, if if this is the new direction of of Assassin's Creed,

778
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:30,000
of where Ubisoft is taking Assassin's Creed, then I'm all for it because I much prefer the older games to the newer games.

779
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:36,000
So far, do I think it's as good as the likes of Assassin's Creed 2 or Brotherhood or Black Flag?

780
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,000
No.

781
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,000
But you haven't been with him long, have you?

782
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:40,000
Exactly.

783
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:46,000
So after this weekend where I'm effectively going to be able to play it all weekend, you never know.

784
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:50,000
I think Steph's out on Sunday, so I might even have it fucking done by Monday.

785
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:57,000
I'll be able to give a much more informed idea next episode.

786
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:04,000
But so far, I think for the price tag, it's definitely worth it because it's 45 quid.

787
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,000
I'll definitely be picking it up. It won't be too long.

788
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,000
You can just borrow it off of me.

789
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:09,000
Yeah, it's physical.

790
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:10,000
Exactly. You can just borrow it off of me.

791
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:15,000
That alone is crazy for a collector's edition to have a physical copy because that does not happen anymore.

792
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:20,000
So I've got an actual steelbook where I can put the fucking disc in the steelbook, which is cool.

793
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,000
Yeah, that's a relic of the past these days, isn't it?

794
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:23,000
Yeah, of course it is.

795
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:29,000
I was looking at, speaking of that, I was looking at Boulders Gates collector's edition the other day.

796
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,000
Big?

797
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:33,000
Oh yeah, comes with an illiffed statue.

798
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,000
It's fucking goated.

799
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,000
It was about a grand.

800
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,000
Fucking hell.

801
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,000
Fucking grand.

802
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:44,000
Well, it wasn't. I remember seeing it go up.

803
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,000
Oh, it wasn't when it first came out?

804
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:55,000
Nah, I was excited for Boulders Gate, knowing what I knew about Divinity, but little did I know I would be like this.

805
00:35:55,000 --> 00:36:03,000
And yeah, I'm obsessed and I need it. I need the collector's edition.

806
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:04,000
You can't have it.

807
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,000
But I can't have it. Not unless I've spunked my savings.

808
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:11,000
I mean, look at that. Sorry, I just burped into the microphone.

809
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:16,000
Oh, sorry. I forget that's the worst thing. I'm pretty sure you're part of your shit on these microphones.

810
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,000
I can't zoom in, but look at that.

811
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,000
Let's have a little gander.

812
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,000
So what do you get? That's the statue itself, the old squidy squidy.

813
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:26,000
And you get all that other stuff.

814
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:27,000
Who's the geezer that's on it?

815
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:28,000
I don't know, I haven't looked into it.

816
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:33,000
It's very cool. And then what's that? You get some patches as well.

817
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,000
Oh, you get Magic the Gathering cards.

818
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:36,000
All sorts of shit, man.

819
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:40,000
Magic the Gathering, a fucking D&D dice.

820
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,000
Oh, those fucking D&D cards. Yeah, I don't know.

821
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:46,000
I think they're a character. That's all I want.

822
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,000
And like a weird key ring thing, a map.

823
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:58,000
What is that? The game itself, a book, a certificate, another picture in the background.

824
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,000
I think I think it was about two hundred fifty dollars.

825
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:02,000
That's very cool.

826
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,000
Probably about two hundred quid.

827
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,000
But yeah, now you're looking at a grand.

828
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:12,000
Yeah, well, what you actually get is.

829
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:24,000
Here's two hundred and fifty nine ninety nine euros is what it was for PS5 or for PC.

830
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:29,000
It is a mind flayer versus a drow battle.

831
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:36,000
Two twenty five centimeter battle, dear armor of a mind flayer and a drow locked in a deadly exchange of blade and psionic might.

832
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:40,000
This collector's edition statue is made from high quality PVC, ABS plastics.

833
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:46,000
Features are finally painted and hand finished around scenic base, depicting the subterranean realm of the Underdark.

834
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,000
I've been in the Underdark. It's not great.

835
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:57,000
He loves the Underdark. Hardcover art book, tadpole key ring, boulders gate 3D20, character sheets.

836
00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:00,000
That's what they were character sheets. Stickers.

837
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:06,000
Boulder's gate, the game cloth map of Faerun magic, the gathering booster packs.

838
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:11,000
What is magic? The gathering got anything to do with D&D?

839
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:19,000
Magic, the gathering's got stuff to do with fucking it definitely has because I saw a boulders gate card of like the actual gate because I've been looking into the law.

840
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:24,000
Boulder's gate is just a gate in the city of Boulder's gate and it was built in 17.

841
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:28,000
I've been looking at some law collectors edition certificate.

842
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,000
Boulder's gate is just a gate.

843
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:37,000
But I want it, but I can't have it and it's killing me inside.

844
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:43,000
Yeah, there is a commander legends battle for boulders gate magic, the gathering.

845
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:51,000
Commander's legends battle for boulders gate is the second magic, the gathering commander set that is designed to be drafted.

846
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:54,000
It was released in June 10th, 2022.

847
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,000
Looks like I'm going to start collecting that shit.

848
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:01,000
I believe boulders gate was a great set for the commander format and the best set of 2022.

849
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:12,000
The commanders and the backgrounds, the set introduced were great designs that allowed you to build your own flavor of deck without forcing you into established pairings like partner.

850
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:17,000
I don't know magic gathering, so I don't know what any of that information is, but it's there for you.

851
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:24,000
I mean, that's another addiction. Does nostalgia magic the gathering card?

852
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,000
750 quid. Yeah, fucking ridiculous.

853
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,000
1200 pound.

854
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,000
Steph's one of Steph's best friends.

855
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:40,000
Her husband is a big magic, the gathering guy, and she's forever like saying like he keeps coming home with magic, the gathering cards and stuff.

856
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:44,000
We've got a fucking place to put these big, big into it.

857
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,000
Not my sort of thing.

858
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:53,000
I say that for the sake of my wallet because they brought them Lord of the Rings ones in there and I was like, no, don't do it.

859
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:57,000
Yeah, I want this so badly.

860
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:05,000
So if any of I'm going to set up a what's them things you know that the only fans people do Amazon wishlist on the boulders gate clicks edition.

861
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:06,000
Fucking wishlist.

862
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:12,000
So if you want to see pictures of my feet, buy me the boulders gate free collector's edition.

863
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,000
I'll send you a picture of whatever you want.

864
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:19,000
My balls, my nipples, my toes.

865
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:24,000
I want this so badly.

866
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,000
I will suck for stuff.

867
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:27,000
I won't.

868
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,000
That's not an advert.

869
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:33,000
You will though, won't you? For boulders gate clicks edition, I'll do things.

870
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,000
You'll do what you're fucking told to do, mate.

871
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:36,000
I'll do what I'm told.

872
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:37,000
All right.

873
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:38,000
I'll be dominated.

874
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:39,000
So just fucking get on with it.

875
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,000
I want that statue.

876
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,000
So, yeah, that's that's where I'm at with that.

877
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:46,000
That's made me really sad that I'm never going to have it.

878
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:47,000
Have you played any more Cyberpunk?

879
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:48,000
No.

880
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:49,000
Oh, no.

881
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:52,000
Have I?

882
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:53,000
Have I?

883
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,000
Yeah, no, I have.

884
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,000
I have, I have, I have, I have.

885
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:58,000
I have.

886
00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,000
Yeah, it's decent, man.

887
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,000
It's real decent.

888
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:06,000
I am obviously going to do Mirage first before I finished Phantom Liberty.

889
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,000
But Mark's finished it.

890
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:14,000
I think it took him 13 hours or something like that to finish it, which is decent for a DLC.

891
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:15,000
It's quite a big chunk.

892
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,000
It's almost the size of Mirage.

893
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,000
Yeah.

894
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:19,000
Fucking.

895
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:27,000
But, yeah, it has by no means am I put off by it.

896
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:30,000
I've just not had the time to fucking play it.

897
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:36,000
I think I see yesterday that Cyberpunk sold 20 million copies or 25 million copies or

898
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:37,000
something.

899
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,000
And Phantom Liberty's already sold three million.

900
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:40,000
Yeah.

901
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:41,000
It's impressive.

902
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,000
I'm sick of seeing people say, see, this is much better than Starfield.

903
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:45,000
Fuck off.

904
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:46,000
Yeah, I said no.

905
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:47,000
Just fuck off.

906
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:50,000
A game that I haven't actually picked up for a long time is Starfield.

907
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:53,000
Again, much like you, the backlog of games I've got.

908
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,000
I've got a balanced fucking ESO in there as well.

909
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:57,000
All right.

910
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,000
I've almost finished Cadwell's fucking Almanac thing where you got to go through and do all

911
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:01,000
those missions.

912
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,000
I've got like four things left to do.

913
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:06,000
And then I get the little pot that he wears on his head.

914
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,000
So there's just so much stuff.

915
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:09,000
You know what I mean?

916
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:10,000
There's so much stuff.

917
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:11,000
Buying a house.

918
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:12,000
You know what I mean?

919
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:14,000
There's all sorts of shit that's.

920
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,000
Thanks to the Patreons, Reese is getting a mortgage.

921
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:18,000
Yeah, pretty much.

922
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:19,000
Thanks, guys.

923
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:22,000
Keep that one coming because now I've got bills.

924
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:29,000
Yeah, but it's like we said the other week, there's a big excitement around gaming at

925
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:30,000
the moment.

926
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:37,000
I mean, I feel like I'm absolutely involved.

927
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:42,000
You ever think about something that you really like and then just wish you could jump into

928
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,000
the pool of it and be smothered by it?

929
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:50,000
Yeah, you know, I mean, I feel like that I'm being hugged by the by the mother that is

930
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:51,000
gaming.

931
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:55,000
And she's just fucking she's got a big old boobies are there and I'm just sucking on

932
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:59,000
them, getting all this gaming all over me down my chin.

933
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:00,000
It's great.

934
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:07,000
Was Dillion White once famously said, it's a bit of a weird analogy.

935
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:08,000
That's fair.

936
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:13,000
That's it's just yeah, I got lots of shit popping off, man.

937
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:14,000
It's decent.

938
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,000
I can't think of let me have a look.

939
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:23,000
I don't know if my calendar surpassed Mirage in terms of games that are coming out.

940
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:27,000
But you got things like Payday 3 come out and like that just went under the radar.

941
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,000
Me and Mark didn't bother getting it.

942
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:30,000
Spider-Man 2 is coming out this month.

943
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:31,000
I'm just not interested in Spider-Man though.

944
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,000
I know you're not, but these are the sort of big hitters that are still coming.

945
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,000
There's still some big boy bollocks coming and it's nuts.

946
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:40,000
Yeah, I haven't got anything past Mirage.

947
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:41,000
There's so much.

948
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:46,000
My backlog at the moment is, well, it will be Spider-Man 2.

949
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:49,000
It's going to be Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty.

950
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:51,000
I want to do Mortal Kombat 1.

951
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:52,000
Mortal Kombat.

952
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:53,000
Exactly.

953
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,000
I still got to jump back into Starfield.

954
00:43:56,000 --> 00:44:00,000
Oh, fucking Wolfenstein as well.

955
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,000
He's been playing Wolfenstein on the Steam Deck.

956
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,000
Plays fucking fantastically.

957
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,000
Oh, it's so much fun.

958
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,000
It's so much fun.

959
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:16,000
I'm about nine, 10 hours through the first one and they're not big games.

960
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:18,000
So I'm 10 hours or so.

961
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,000
So I'm somewhere near there.

962
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:21,000
Good fun.

963
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:22,000
Real good fun.

964
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,000
Like I say, plays really nice.

965
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:26,000
Feels really good.

966
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,000
I'm just shooting Nazis in the face.

967
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:29,000
I mean, what more?

968
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:32,000
What more can a boy dream?

969
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:37,000
I chose Street Kid for Cyberpunk.

970
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:38,000
Starting story.

971
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:39,000
Jason.

972
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:40,000
Different from...

973
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:41,000
You were Nomad last time, weren't you?

974
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:42,000
Yeah, I was Nomad.

975
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:43,000
So it's a completely different story.

976
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:44,000
Really interesting.

977
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,000
Really cool actually starting off.

978
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:51,000
It's nice to see how it transitions into the same, you know, obviously funnels to the same bit.

979
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:52,000
But it's Jason.

980
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:53,000
It's different.

981
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:54,000
It's interesting.

982
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:57,000
I felt a lot shorter than the Nomad starting.

983
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:02,000
But you can, but even just from the start, the way the menus are popping,

984
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:08,000
even going to your apartment for the first time and it's like, right, here's your weapon stash.

985
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:11,000
Like the cars.

986
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:14,000
I don't think you get constantly bombarded with messages about cars no more.

987
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,000
It's all on your emails on your computer.

988
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:17,000
That it is.

989
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,000
Things like that.

990
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:20,000
Just making it so much cleaner.

991
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:26,000
Items on the floor, weapons you're picking up, like the stats, the stats screen for the weapons and stuff.

992
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,000
You can actually inspect the items as well.

993
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:29,000
You can actually rotate.

994
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:30,000
I love that in games.

995
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:33,000
Rotate the actual object and have a look at what is.

996
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:35,000
We were wrong last time.

997
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,000
We said that there was no additional health things anymore.

998
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:38,000
I found some yesterday.

999
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,000
There are.

1000
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:45,000
However, the health packs themselves just regenerate.

1001
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:46,000
Same with grenades.

1002
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:47,000
Yeah, that's what I prefer that.

1003
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:48,000
It's much better.

1004
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:49,000
Which is decent.

1005
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:50,000
So you can just quick, quick slot what you want.

1006
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:51,000
Even the crafting components.

1007
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,000
It just says tier one crafting components.

1008
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:56,000
Rather than fucking all these confusing convoluted bullets.

1009
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:57,000
They've streamlined it.

1010
00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:59,000
They've definitely streamlined it.

1011
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,000
It just feels, it feels fucking smooth.

1012
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:04,000
However, I come across a mob when I was last playing it.

1013
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:06,000
Like some random interaction.

1014
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,000
On the map, it looked like a puddle.

1015
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,000
Like on the map.

1016
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:15,000
And it was a police officer having a fight with like a load of other people.

1017
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,000
And I thought I'll quickly stop and help the other people.

1018
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,000
Like help the police officer.

1019
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,000
Start shooting at these mobs.

1020
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:23,000
Health bar was not, it won't do anything.

1021
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,000
No damage was even popping up.

1022
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:26,000
I was there for about 10 minutes.

1023
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,000
Running them over, firing grenades at them.

1024
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:29,000
Slicing and dicing.

1025
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:30,000
Shooting them in the face.

1026
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:31,000
Nothing was happening.

1027
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:33,000
I was like, am I at a wrong level here?

1028
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:34,000
What is happening?

1029
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:35,000
Killed the police officer.

1030
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:36,000
That's just a bit of a bug.

1031
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,000
I turned around and I was like, what's going on?

1032
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:39,000
Popped the police officer in the head.

1033
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:40,000
He was dead.

1034
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:41,000
I was like, fuck.

1035
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:42,000
So what is happening?

1036
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:43,000
Sorry officer.

1037
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:44,000
Let me just check something.

1038
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:45,000
Bang.

1039
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:46,000
Oh, sorry.

1040
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:47,000
Killed him.

1041
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:48,000
Ended his life.

1042
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:49,000
And just carried on on my way.

1043
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:56,480
I don't know if it's part of the DLC or not, but obviously I completed my storyline with

1044
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,240
Pan Am.

1045
00:46:58,240 --> 00:47:01,200
She is my lover.

1046
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:06,000
And completed the storyline with the other, one of the other ones.

1047
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:07,000
Judy.

1048
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:08,000
Judy.

1049
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:12,240
And I completed my storyline with all of them.

1050
00:47:12,240 --> 00:47:14,000
With every single one of them.

1051
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:18,360
Except for Pan Am is the one that I've like fell in love with.

1052
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:19,640
And I thought that was it.

1053
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:24,200
However, in this DLC, there's constant conversation back and forth.

1054
00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:27,880
And I can't remember if that's part of the base game or if that's an addition on the

1055
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:28,880
DLC.

1056
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:29,880
I don't know.

1057
00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:30,880
Pan Am sent me nudes every now and again.

1058
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:31,880
Oh, did she?

1059
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:32,880
Yeah.

1060
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:35,080
She, I'd just be driving about and he'd be like, hey Vy, and then it'd just be her in

1061
00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:36,080
the shower.

1062
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:37,080
I'd be like, oh.

1063
00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:38,080
She didn't send me any nudes.

1064
00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:41,080
She didn't have the same relationship as me and Pan Am did.

1065
00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:45,680
Yeah, but I'm, yeah, but like I say, I'm the same in the game as I am in person.

1066
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:47,080
I'm caring and attentive.

1067
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,280
I've got all the patience in the world.

1068
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:51,480
You know what I mean?

1069
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:52,480
Same.

1070
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:53,480
Definitely not.

1071
00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:54,480
I'm a nice guy.

1072
00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:55,480
No, no.

1073
00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:59,320
What it is, you're the fucking, you're the bad guy and she likes bad guys.

1074
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,240
Typical, typical thing, innit?

1075
00:48:01,240 --> 00:48:03,920
Good guys being fucked over and the bad boys getting all the nudes.

1076
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:04,920
No, not at all.

1077
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:05,920
I was very polite.

1078
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:06,920
I'm always polite.

1079
00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:12,160
But if I don't like it, I'm shooting you.

1080
00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:14,520
Or in Baldur's Gate.

1081
00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,680
I'm just going to put my sword through your chest.

1082
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:24,520
There is speculation that on October the 26th, GTA 6 will be announced.

1083
00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:25,520
I've heard this.

1084
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:29,160
I've heard this fucking years and years and years.

1085
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:30,720
I just believe it when I see it now.

1086
00:48:30,720 --> 00:48:33,200
Yeah, but apparently it's come from very serious leakers.

1087
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:35,040
Yeah, I still believe it when I see it.

1088
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:37,120
And to be quite frank, I don't care.

1089
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:40,520
I've got enough on my plate and it probably ain't going to come out for another year.

1090
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:41,520
So who cares?

1091
00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:42,520
We all care.

1092
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:43,520
GTA 6 is here.

1093
00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:49,760
When GTA 6 comes out, the world is basically going to be nearly the end because that's

1094
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:50,760
just the end times.

1095
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:51,760
Yeah.

1096
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:52,760
That is the end times.

1097
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:56,920
That's when the comics going to smash into earth the day before GTA comes out.

1098
00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:57,920
Yeah.

1099
00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:01,240
But if that doesn't happen, the world is going to be taken over.

1100
00:49:01,240 --> 00:49:07,840
Gaming as we know it will cease because every single person in the world will be playing

1101
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:12,280
GTA 6 as they did with GTA 5 for the last 25 years.

1102
00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:13,680
It's going to be mad.

1103
00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:14,920
It's going to be fucking mental.

1104
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:17,360
If there's a collector's edition of that, you can bet your ass I'm going to try and

1105
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:18,360
get it.

1106
00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:20,640
I don't think there will be, but fuck me.

1107
00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:22,440
Yeah, fuck me as well.

1108
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:29,360
I wish I knew that I loved Baldur's Gate as much as I do before I did because I would

1109
00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:31,160
have bought that collector's edition.

1110
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:32,160
One million percent.

1111
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:33,720
And when did it come out though?

1112
00:49:33,720 --> 00:49:34,720
What?

1113
00:49:34,720 --> 00:49:35,720
Baldur's Gate?

1114
00:49:35,720 --> 00:49:36,720
A collector's edition.

1115
00:49:36,720 --> 00:49:37,720
I don't know.

1116
00:49:37,720 --> 00:49:38,720
How would it got it?

1117
00:49:38,720 --> 00:49:42,240
Did it come out with normal release or was it like because everyone able to play it for

1118
00:49:42,240 --> 00:49:44,160
the last fucking 17 years?

1119
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,840
Oh yeah, they wouldn't have had the full game, would they?

1120
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:50,560
They wouldn't have had the full disc release and all that shit, would they?

1121
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:54,480
But all I do know is Baldur's Gate 4, motherfucker.

1122
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:56,440
I'm getting that collector's edition.

1123
00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:57,880
How are they going to fucking top it?

1124
00:49:57,880 --> 00:49:58,880
Well, they're not.

1125
00:49:58,880 --> 00:49:59,880
No, I mean, how would you?

1126
00:49:59,880 --> 00:50:00,880
It's impossible.

1127
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:06,320
I'm probably going to be like 55 by the time it comes out.

1128
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:08,680
Diablo 4 got some new reskins.

1129
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:09,680
Oh yeah.

1130
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:10,680
Oh yeah.

1131
00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:11,680
Diablo.

1132
00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:13,880
Oh yeah, dead game.

1133
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:15,040
That's enough on that one.

1134
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:19,560
That was a game that you also said, I believe you, I remember you saying that this would

1135
00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:23,600
be on this forever and this would be the game that you could retire on.

1136
00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:28,640
This is your forever game and it lasted a month.

1137
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:30,440
My live service games.

1138
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:31,440
Destiny.

1139
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:32,880
It lasted a month.

1140
00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:33,880
Destiny.

1141
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:36,760
I wanted something different from Destiny and I thought that would be it, but it's not.

1142
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:38,480
Destiny 2, Dead in the Water.

1143
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:39,480
Destiny 2.

1144
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:40,480
Completely fucking dead.

1145
00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:41,480
The goat.

1146
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:45,480
Destiny 2, when there's no expansion, I'm not going back to it.

1147
00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:47,040
No, because there's no point.

1148
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:48,040
I think I'm over.

1149
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:52,960
I'm not even going to go because the final expansion, not light fall.

1150
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:54,600
Is it light fall?

1151
00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:57,520
No, that was the last one.

1152
00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:02,880
The final shape is the last expansion to sum up the whole of Destiny, the whole story and

1153
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:04,720
then who knows what's going to happen.

1154
00:51:04,720 --> 00:51:06,040
I'm not even going to go back for that.

1155
00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:10,280
Although I say that, I probably will, but at this moment in time, I've got no plans

1156
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:11,280
of buying it.

1157
00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:13,760
I've bought every single expansion, pre-ordered them.

1158
00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:18,080
I'm not going to do it because I'm confused by it.

1159
00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:19,920
I don't understand the game anymore.

1160
00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:22,600
I don't understand what they want me to do anymore.

1161
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:24,320
It's too much, too convoluted.

1162
00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:26,920
The community when you play with people is so toxic.

1163
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:28,600
They're twats, basically.

1164
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:29,600
Welcome to Blizzard, baby.

1165
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:33,600
Ninety percent of the people I've raided with are nobeds.

1166
00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:34,600
Blizzard and Bungie.

1167
00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:38,400
They're just rude and there's people in the group that don't know what they're doing.

1168
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:40,960
They just get shouted at and it's just pathetic and I hate it.

1169
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:41,960
They...

1170
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:48,800
Destiny and World of Warcraft need hard, hard resets.

1171
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:50,560
They need a brand new game.

1172
00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:51,960
They need another installment.

1173
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:53,160
You need Destiny 3.

1174
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:55,280
Well, they've got a new game coming out, haven't they?

1175
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:56,280
That shooting game.

1176
00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:59,280
I can't remember what it's called.

1177
00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:01,960
Well, yeah, they have got a new one.

1178
00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:03,800
I can't wait for the Division 3.

1179
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:05,240
Fuck the Division 3.

1180
00:52:05,240 --> 00:52:07,680
That's all I've got to say on the mail.

1181
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:08,680
Love the Division.

1182
00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:09,680
Very, very fun game.

1183
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:10,680
A lot of fucking...

1184
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:14,360
I can still remember where I was when we started talking about Division 2.

1185
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:16,640
We was down a road in Tottenham.

1186
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:17,640
We were.

1187
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:22,680
Outside a gate where I was about to drive a big vehicle to move big bags and we were

1188
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:29,040
just talking about Division 2 and I said, it sucks balls and he was like, no, it's great.

1189
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:33,240
And then that's how we become friends, I guess, if that's what you call this.

1190
00:52:33,240 --> 00:52:36,440
What, we was moving the fucking...

1191
00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:37,440
The cab star?

1192
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:39,720
Was that when we were doing it?

1193
00:52:39,720 --> 00:52:41,920
When we were emptying out them lake things?

1194
00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:42,920
Yeah.

1195
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,440
I was going to move the tractor thing.

1196
00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:46,920
Yeah, the skid steer.

1197
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:48,400
Yeah, the big one.

1198
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:49,400
Yeah.

1199
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:50,400
Yeah.

1200
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:51,880
Yeah, and then we played it, didn't we?

1201
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:52,880
Yeah.

1202
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:53,880
And we were both nervous.

1203
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:54,880
Like children, you were.

1204
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:55,880
I can hear it in your voice.

1205
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:58,400
Now that I know you, you were as nervous as well.

1206
00:52:58,400 --> 00:52:59,400
I was not nervous.

1207
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:00,400
You were as nervous as I was.

1208
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:05,720
And then, yeah, didn't play the Division again after that.

1209
00:53:05,720 --> 00:53:06,720
No.

1210
00:53:06,720 --> 00:53:07,720
Didn't really play anything together after that.

1211
00:53:07,720 --> 00:53:08,720
You made me play it.

1212
00:53:08,720 --> 00:53:10,800
I bought the stuff that I needed to buy.

1213
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,280
I bought the expansions, the dark zone, all that crap.

1214
00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:15,280
And then we done it.

1215
00:53:15,280 --> 00:53:16,280
And then you was like, well, I'm off.

1216
00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:17,280
And I was like, see you later.

1217
00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,440
I played it for a bit that night.

1218
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:22,200
And then never played it again after buying it.

1219
00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:23,200
Fucking pointless.

1220
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:24,200
I can't help you there.

1221
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:26,040
You know what I mean?

1222
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:27,520
It's just different times, man.

1223
00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:28,520
Different times.

1224
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:29,520
We're both grown up.

1225
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:30,520
You've become happier.

1226
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:32,400
I've become out of my shell more.

1227
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:34,200
You know what I mean?

1228
00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:37,080
I think the Division's a very good game.

1229
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:41,800
It's just a lot of these games where they're live service games, eventually they hit a

1230
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:47,840
point where it's like, right, there must be a decision of do we stop this and try something

1231
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:51,080
new or do we just keep adding to this bullshit?

1232
00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:53,160
Like what Destiny and World of Warcraft are doing.

1233
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:56,680
The pair of them just keep adding shit.

1234
00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:57,680
Stop it.

1235
00:53:57,680 --> 00:53:59,520
I want Baldur's Gate to keep adding to the bullshit.

1236
00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:00,520
Please give me more.

1237
00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:02,040
Yeah, Baldur's Gate's different though because it's fucking brand new.

1238
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:07,600
World of Warcraft needs to shut down and they need to do World of Warcraft 2.

1239
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:11,640
I want Baldur's Gate online and I want Starfield online.

1240
00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:13,040
All right?

1241
00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:14,040
That's what I want.

1242
00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:15,040
I just want WoW 2.

1243
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:19,120
And I also just want more of the stuff that they've already done, but I want Baldur's

1244
00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:20,120
Gate.

1245
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:24,680
I just want them to go, right, Baldur's Gate 3 is now just called Baldur's Gate and we're

1246
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:28,800
just going to add content into this game every day for the rest of your life.

1247
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:30,320
I'll be like, wicked.

1248
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:36,840
I want World of Warcraft, but Star Wars.

1249
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:37,840
What do you mean you want that?

1250
00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:38,840
I want that.

1251
00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:39,840
It'd be exciting though, wouldn't it?

1252
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:40,840
I just want that.

1253
00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:46,240
Luckily though, I've got ESO and that shit is still holding me with a firm grip.

1254
00:54:46,240 --> 00:54:47,240
It's great.

1255
00:54:47,240 --> 00:54:48,240
I really love it.

1256
00:54:48,240 --> 00:54:49,240
It's fantastic.

1257
00:54:49,240 --> 00:54:50,240
Right.

1258
00:54:50,240 --> 00:54:51,240
That's enough.

1259
00:54:51,240 --> 00:54:52,240
I want to go play Baldur's Gate.

1260
00:54:52,240 --> 00:54:55,240
We've got to feed the Patreons yet though.

1261
00:54:55,240 --> 00:54:56,240
Yeah.

1262
00:54:56,240 --> 00:54:59,240
So we'll fuck these lot off and then go back to the people that we actually care about,

1263
00:54:59,240 --> 00:55:00,240
the ones who give us money.

1264
00:55:00,240 --> 00:55:01,240
The people that matter.

1265
00:55:01,240 --> 00:55:02,720
Funnel money straight into our pockets.

1266
00:55:02,720 --> 00:55:05,520
We'll go and talk to them instead of the new fuckers.

1267
00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:06,520
Absolutely.

1268
00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,160
Oh, I'm getting all the hoodies and shit tomorrow.

1269
00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:10,160
Nice.

1270
00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:13,480
So that will be fucking primed and ready.

1271
00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:15,080
As Maui said, you're welcome.

1272
00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:16,080
Decent.

1273
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,880
See, if you was all part of the Patreons, you wouldn't be able to get access to all

1274
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,400
of them, but here's what it is.

1275
00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:23,680
Let you know.

1276
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:24,680
What?

1277
00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:25,680
Half the people aren't part of the Patreons.

1278
00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:27,840
This is a test run, all right?

1279
00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:29,720
So there might be some merch coming at some point.

1280
00:55:29,720 --> 00:55:32,760
We're just testing on the guinea pigs that are our friends.

1281
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:33,760
All right?

1282
00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:37,040
So just have some fucking patience with us, please.

1283
00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:39,360
Have a little patience.

1284
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:40,360
I'm going to pause this.

1285
00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:41,360
I'm going to stop this.

1286
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,640
We're going to go and do the Patreon.

1287
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:45,160
We'll be back next week.

1288
00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:46,160
Yep.

1289
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:47,160
Decent.

1290
00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:48,160
Sweet.

1291
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:49,160
See you later.

1292
00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:50,160
All right.

1293
00:55:50,160 --> 00:56:03,360
It's time for a question?

1294
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:11,800
M irgendwann.

1295
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:17,220
Okay.
