Hip, hip, hip, hip, hip, hip, hip, hip, hip hop, hip hop.
Hello.
That was terrible.
I feel like mine.
All of the intros that we've ever done.
Hip hop. This is 119.
Hip Hop Anonymous?
That was awful.
Have you not seen Big Daddy?
No, but what are you on about?
Hip Hop? Hip Hop Anonymous?
You've never seen?
No. Are you having a stroke?
You don't get it, then.
No. No, no, no, it's just beyond me.
You all right?
Yeah, you?
You've been doing much?
Loads.
Loads of nothing.
I've been busy.
What did we say last episode when we were talking about fucking...
What are we doing?
What is this?
Is this Patreon or is this V?
No, no.
This is for the fucking regulars.
This ain't for the paying customers.
Let's just say I know what I can say and what I can't.
Okay.
I will save the good stuff for the fucking paying people.
That's what I'm saying.
Give these a lot of the shit and then go on to the good stuff in the paid section.
Like bowel movements.
Yeah.
It was great, wasn't it?
I've been playing nearly finished Callisto Protocol.
Oh, yes.
I'll see you play that.
Yeah.
Not my first ever horror game.
I think it might be the first ever horror game that I'm going to complete.
It's not as scary as I first thought, but it's very, very fun.
It's very fun.
You've got this weird anti-gravity hand thing where you can just fucking pick people up
and go, vroom, see you later.
It kind of takes the scariness out of it because when something pops up at you, which happens
quite often, you just pick the cunt up and go, see you.
Then another one comes out and you go, I'll pick you up.
See you later.
It's very fun.
Why do you get such bad reviews?
Or is it just you don't know?
No, I don't actually know.
Because that got terrible reviews.
It did get terrible reviews, didn't it?
I don't actually know.
I'll have a quick look because I did read somewhere that it had bad reviews.
Terrible reviews because I was excited for that game because they got hundreds and hundreds
of different death animations.
Yeah, loads.
There's some gruesome ones, but after you see them a while for a couple of times, it's
annoying.
Why does it say TV program?
It's definitely not a TV program.
Maybe it was a performance-based problem with the game then that's now been fixed.
I don't know.
But anyway, let's talk about it.
Yeah, yeah.
I have, I have a couple of questions about it.
The first one is, here we go, about someone asking if it's worth buying in 2024.
Yep, I bought it full price and enjoyed my 12 hours.
I'll replay it this year for sure.
I've only played in PS5 so I'm not sure about a PC state, but for $8 I think it's worth
the gamble.
I think I got it for free, I think on one of the PlayStation Plus things or maybe I
I don't remember. But I can't really see what the problem is, if I'm honest. It's a small campaign.
The voice acting is good, the graphics are good, the gameplay feels pretty decent.
The story is pretty decent. I don't know, but I'm not in the loop of horror games. So it's a bit
difficult. In the same instance of I'm not in the loop with Call of Duty. So I don't know what's
fucking what ones were good in the last five years and what ones were shit. It's a bit difficult.
Yeah, I don't know. I think I can download it on my console. So maybe because this is
download to console, but then there it says it's 55 quid. But then I go on this,
which I definitely haven't got. It says add to cart. So maybe it was a PlayStation plus thingy.
Yeah, probably. You probably add it to your library and then fucking off you go.
Yeah, boy. I've got another game like that. This on there that I see yesterday, fun enough,
called Dead Space. Yeah, I'd got that. I've got that at some point so I can download that when I
feel the need. Just looking at my PlayStation points. I don't know. 971 of them.
What was you going to talk about? I don't know. What was I going to talk about?
I felt like you had something to talk about. Probably. I got distracted.
Scrolling through your phone. No, I was just distracted by the PlayStation
stars points thing. But it doesn't seem like that. It seems like they've changed it now. I feel like
they've changed it. So now I can't get them free little vouchers that used to get
weird. I know. Yeah, you can. Rewards. Have they still got the vouchers? Yeah, yeah.
Five pound 1250. I can't even get a fiver. Fuck it. Yeah, good game. Glad. I'm glad you're having fun.
I'll never play it probably. Fuck it. Now this is a bit painful this section. Jesus Christ.
Well, you need to tell us more about the game. Fuck me. I just did. It's only a small campaign.
Yeah, but what's going on in it? I ain't finished it yet. Fuck all.
Fuck all. No, you're not a smuggler. You're just a geezer that does fucking interplanetary,
basically DPD, but for space. And you end up crash landing on a prison planet, essentially.
And it's like it is literally like one massive prison. And the guards of the prison and the
people that runs it find you and you got like this fucking contraband cargo in your ship.
And you have no idea what it is and blah, blah, blah. You know, one of them jobs where it's like,
look, I'll give you 10 grand. You fucking keep your mouth shut. Just go and deliver this box.
And yeah, he gets arrested, but he's like, I'm just a fucking, I'm just a courier. Like what?
Oh, it's a problem. And then all the prisoners basically turn into zombies and shit. It's very,
what's the fucking, there might, there must be some kind of, um, fuck, you know, this is terrible.
This is, I'm glad that people ain't having to pay for this one. I'm reading the reviews.
Repetitive survival horror that feels like a life sentence. Clistoprotocol is as bereft of life as
the harsh conditions of the moon in which is set. And then, uh, a more positive review. Clistoprotocol
makes some mistakes with general computing. The good winds by far is true. They're somewhat angry
to see this is, this is written in Spanish, so I can't even read that. It's all different,
different typos and stuff. Um, not only did it fail to live up to expectations laid upon its
shoulders from its industry for bears, but by its own merits, it is a prophetic waste of human effort
on fit for anything other than the trash bin. Where, where are people getting these reviews from?
This is on Metacritic. I'm just popping them off. I don't understand where people are getting these
negative reviews from. Crawling simulator with bashing one enemy for half an hour and only one
type of enemy, one boss and two weapons, which you can't upgrade over 20% through the whole game.
Zero puzzles, zero exploration and zero scares. What? There's above average graphics, combat as
weight, great gore and great ragdolls. Unfortunately, the combat melee, which the game pushes you into
a lot, lacks depth. You can only dodge and attack the same combat animations. It's just, yeah,
it's got, it's got a hundred out of a hundred by Dex, Dexerto. Yeah, it's good. It's a good game.
Well, I can see what the fuck. Yeah, but it's just fucking, it's just the same as, uh,
days gone, man. This is the sort of reviews that shit came out too. And, but then everybody that's
ever played it loves it. So who knows? It's just one of them enigmas that it's not, it's not by
the wayside. It's not the scariest game in the world by any means. Um, but I don't, I don't really
get what it is linear, but there's, there's little secret rooms that you can find. Um, I mean,
saying that there's one type of enemy there isn't, there's, there's like your bog standard fucking
zombie people. There's these, these other weird ones that can spit shit at you. There's ones that
run around like fucking dogs. There's big fucking ones. There's ones that are like clickers where
they're blind. There's these weird, like, they look like four skins in the ground. And then when you
go near them, a head pops out and fucking grabs hold of you like a snake and it's like, and you've
got to fucking stab it in the face. And then, and then it goes, there's little worm things. Oh,
what? I don't get it. And let, unless these are reviews when it first come out and then they've
fucking massively changed the game now and how it's completely different. But I asked,
cause I just remember the bad reviews and then going, well, I'm not going to, I don't know where
those reviews are corresponding because so far I haven't, I haven't experienced any of that. I'm
on, and I'm on the, there's eight chapters and I'm on chapter six. So I feel like I've put in enough
time to understand what's going on. And then the same with the weapons, there's, you got the,
you got the like electric baton, a fucking pistol, and then a secondary type of pistol,
and then two shotguns, and then you're fucking anti-grav hand thing. So I don't know where the
fuck they've got two weapons from because there ain't. It's just fucking sweaty. It's all right.
It's not the best horror game in the world, but for me it's all right. I played some deep
rock galactic survivor. Ever played that? Yeah. It's the most ADHD autistic game in the world.
What do you mean? It's just, there's a list of games. I remember sending it to Connor and it's
like, if you play any of these games, you are autistic. Fuck off. It's just great. It's just
great fun. They got another one coming out in there because it was free on game pass. That's
how I started playing it. Are we talking about the same game? Yeah. Deep rock galactic. No,
deep rock galactic survivor. It was two different games. What do you mean? Deep rock. Is it? What?
Yes. Two different games. No, you're talking absolute shit. Absolutely not. Telling you now I'm
not. Deep rock galactic survivor. You got it buddy. Yeah, but it's the same. It's not the same.
Oh, early access. It's very different. What is it then? It's basically vampire survivors, but. Oh,
but deep rock galactic. But it's a lot, I'd say it's a lot more in depth. It is very in depth,
actually. It's very fucking good. And I'm going to say it's fucking good. I mean, it's like,
I can't stop playing the fucking thing. Having put hundreds of hours into vampire survivors,
holo cure and other games in this growing rogue light genre, deep rock galactic survivor is
familiar enough that I was able to hit the ground running, but also immediately sets itself apart
from them. Starting as one of the four distinct classes with auto firing weapons. You deploy a
hostile deployment to a hostile environment to squash endless insectoid enemies. The unique angle
survivor brings to that formula is mining as you'll need to dig up gold and nitro to buy upgrades
between floors, harvest rare minerals to unlock permanent upgrades on the main menu and rush to
collect specific resources on each floor to complete a bonus objective for a big payout.
What are these pictures of it? Oh, that looks quite nice, doesn't it? What are you playing that on?
It's a very, uh, it's just vampire survivors. It's very simple. How much did you pay for it?
A couple of quid, I think. I don't know. Cut a quid. I bought it a while ago. Just fucking cut a quid,
mate. A couple of quid, a couple of queen's noses, you know, son. Yeah, no, it's a good,
uh, it's a good little game, man. Just keeps you entertained. And then you realize that you're not
entertained. You're fucking, you're sucked in and you can't turn the cunt off. I'm surprised you
never went for fucking Pokemon Pocket. I've collected almost every card, bruv. What are you on about?
You're mad. Why have you never spoken to me about it? Why, why I need to? You just know. Roman's got
all of them. Yeah, pretty much the same as me, bruv. Yeah, he's above you, but he spent fucking silly
money on it as well. I haven't. It's good though. It's, uh, it's a bit, I don't really like the bat
then. I just like the collecting part of it. The battling is a bit, yeah. But you have to kind of
battle, don't you? The fucking collect most of the shit. No, you get two packs a day. Yeah. But
otherwise it's going to take forever. You can just fucking battle. No. Yeah. But you don't really get
anything for battling. You just level up very, very, very, very slowly. That's one of the people's
problems with it because you don't get anything. You're battling players online. Yeah, but it'd
been out for like two weeks and people were like, oh, there's not enough in the game. Two weeks.
It's been out for ages. It's just been beta, hasn't it? It's been in beta. Um, yeah, it's just Pokemon,
bruv. It doesn't matter what it is. There are people going to buy it and play it and it's about
170 million I think it earned in its first week. Ridiculous amount of money. It's Pokemon. Yeah.
What's, what are you going to do? You got the right formula. Exactly. Oi, look at this. Reminds me.
This, um, geezer at work. All right. He was playing the Pokemon, the pocket the other day and
he's only just got it like a couple of, uh, couple of days ago and I will show you what the fuck came
out of his fucking pack, bruv. Look at that. Really? All right. So that then, then he got,
so he got, first of all, we got a God pack, which is, you know what God pack is for anyone that
doesn't, it's just like all like ultra res in the same pack and they're only ultra res. I said,
as soon as the first card popped up and it was venus, I was like, Ooh, you could have a God pack
there because you don't very often see them at the front. So as he slowly turned it and saw,
I was like, we was like, wow, gasses and that. Then he popped the first venus and then gold
Mewtwo popped out, which is one of the three rarest cards in the game equal to that. It's like
0.02% or some shit like that. 0.2%. Exactly. And then after that, another one popped out straight
after it and then two more venus. So the chance of getting a gold pack is 0.05%. The chance of
getting a Mewtwo is like, yeah, 0.03%, I think. And then he got two of them. So the, what are the
odds of all of that? I don't, the odds of that is got to be something ridiculous. A God pack
and two gold Mewtwo. The odds have got to be astronomical. They've definitely got a thing
where your first time playing the first couple of packs you get, you get decent shit to fucking
entice you into spending a bit of dough. Gotcha. Yeah. That's how it fucking, that's how it is in
it. That's how it rolls. But enough about that game because I fucking can't bother with it. Yeah,
fuck it. I can't be bothered. I've been playing another game called Stalker. Oh, have you been
playing that? I have, I have. Bearing in mind, we spoke about it last week. Yep. I set the Xbox up.
Yeah. Got game pass for a month and downloaded it. How do you, how would you find it? What are you
thinking? I think it's fantastic. Yeah. It's really good. Yeah. It depends what your, it depends,
your mileage will vary because it depends what you like. Um, if you like easy fallouty,
bopping around, it's definitely not for you. Well, once I saw the fucking inventory menu where you
have to, the little squares and you can only put certain bits in it, it turned me off straight away.
I was like, no, I'm all right. I'm out of that. It's not really an issue. I cannot be bothered
with that survival bollocks. Just press one button and then it goes to inventory. Yeah, no,
it's annoying. And then you have to eat. Bro, the eating is you just press one button and eat some
bread. Yeah, I hate it. But you don't have to do anything. Why? Yeah, but you have to eat, don't
you? Don't you? Don't you have to eat? You get a hunger symbol and then you just press one button.
Switched off straight away. Why have it? Why bother having it? If it's that simple, get rid of it.
Yeah, it is that simple. So to get rid of it. We said this with No Man's Sky, you hit a point where
there's no point to put in oxygen in your fucking backpack because you don't need it. In that you
don't think about it anymore because you've got such a surplus of it. Get rid of it. Yeah, but then
it, but then when you haven't got it, cause you've been taking advantage of the fact that you have
had it. You're like, Oh fuck, you got something else to do. Yeah. But then it's just annoying
at that point. It depends. That's why I say your mileage may vary. Cause it's fucking hate
survival, man. People like that. I like that. I like the form of, Oh fuck, I need to go find some
food. And, and there's just post-apocalyptic thing in it. Yeah. But do you not get enough of that from
fucking Daisy? No, that's why I play Daisy. Cause it's fun. Yeah. But it's just different strokes
for different folks. Oh yeah. But every cunt does it. Every, every fucking game that is coming out,
even, even that horizon rip off following the same sort of shit. It's every fucking game. And some of
them look really, really cool. And then the minute you see any form of house building or the word
survival thrown in, Oh fuck off. It's the new battle Royale. Everyone's making a survival. Everyone.
They're all shit because they're so popular. I hate them. I hate them so much. I'm enjoying
when the minority, I know, especially when there's building mechanics as well. Oh yeah. You can build,
look at these fucking wonderful places. You can be, no, no, fuck off. I'm no good at the building.
I'll give you that. But yeah, the survival was very light. It's not even worth paying attention to,
but so far anyway, but yeah, the game's very, very, very hardcore. Like it's, it's not Daisy level of
flight madness, but it's, it's hard to explain, but you I'm playing a normal and it's fucking hard.
If I see an enemy on running and hiding and just shooting them from miles away and then just dying
anyway, it's fucking, there's no hit markers. There's no light. You can't see them. So it's only
if you see them, you can shoot them. But then it's like, have I got them? I don't know. I can't tell
unless I go over there and they're laying down in the dirt. I can't see. Um, but yeah, the atmosphere
is fucking unbelievable. It's all dark and need your little headlight on. Very, very jump scary.
Yeah. I've seen some scary shit. I've shit myself bro. I, there's a bit, I was going through a little
tunnel the other day and something just, when it wasn't like, this is why I saw good cause it's
not scripted. It just appeared. It happened. It come around the corner and I fucking screamed like
a little bitch. Um, yeah, it made me jump, especially if you've got the headphones on.
So it's even more like, uh, yeah, just going around, killing people, picking up stuff.
What's the anomalies and shit that you see? So, so the law of it, basically what I've got from it,
cause I'm not a stalker expert by any means. I know nothing about it, but I've looked into it.
So it's got the Chernobyl disaster. Yeah. So Chernobyl disaster happened. I'm sure we all
know about that, but why the Chernobyl happened, the disaster happened in the game was because
they were doing scientific research on humans there. Right. And something went wrong. So then
obviously the ex they become an exclusion zone. So the nuclear power, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
But then they used that to their advantage and was like, well, no one will definitely come here now.
So we can carry on our research in complete secrecy. So they carried on doing human research and stuff.
And that's why there's all mutants and all sorts of weird shit going on. And then the anomaly is
just like the nuclear shit reacting and all this other stuff, but, um, there's all sorts of different
ones. Then you can get little artifacts that have been created from the anomaly, which give you
boost. They're basically like little fucking, I don't know, perks if you want, you find them
and it could have random perks on it, like increase your radiation or fucking buoyancy and water or
whatever it may be. But, um, yeah, I'm not doing it wrong. I've only played it for about three,
four hours, but what I have played has been thoroughly enjoyable. It's very buggy. Uh, it's
very noticeable stick drift on it at the moment. I thought it was my ex-boy,
because I'm walking forward, but I'm always walking forward and a bit to the right. And I'm like,
what the fuck is going on? I haven't played the Xbox for ages. So I thought my control was fucked.
And then, uh, yeah, I've seen some people complain about like really bad stick drift.
Um, and yes, it's buggy, but like I say, they give Bethesda and all these other companies,
a lot of fucking praise and, oh, it's just Bethesda, especially the stuff that this
dev team has been through in Ukraine. They need time. They allow, they should allow these people
time. Um, the game, the, the, the core of the game is really, really good. They just need to
smooth the edges. Well, I haven't seen that much bad record.
I haven't seen that much bad recourse from, from the bugs and everything, as much as you would from
a different type of game from, from, from a AAA game or whatever. I feel like because of that reason,
because you know, like didn't, didn't half of their dev team like die.
I think the creative director died. I believe.
So it's like, well, give them, give them, give them a break. I mean, the, the game still come out.
Um, and I feel like that's that, that's why I haven't really seen all too much in terms of
people kicking off about bugs and shit like that. Maybe, maybe this time around people have actually
switched on a little bit and gone, well, it's probably not the fucking, it's probably not the
best thing to whinge about it. It's really cool. I really enjoy it. I think once he's had a bit of
time, a bit more time in the oven that I've just read on Twitter now that they've just raised another
patch or patch. So hopefully that improves some shit when I get in. But, um, yeah, the premise of
the game is fantastic. Anyone that likes military shit, they'll be all over this. What I really like
about it, which no games do like the, if I could think of one, it probably would be Daisy is when
you like get a new gun or a, or a, a good weapon, you're like gassed. Yeah. Not a dime a dozen,
you're picking up shitty guns and you kill everyone. You can pick up everyone's gun, but nine
times out of 10, their guns are broken. So you can't really do anything with them. Yep. Um, so yeah,
when you find a, I don't know, I haven't found one yet, we're just saying them for, I've seen some of
the guns people are picking up. You're like sick. This is great. Then obviously you've got to be
careful with what ammo you put in it. Cause certain ammos do the durability more, but then more
powerful ammo. So you have to keep maintaining your randomly placed or is it all in the same,
it's got a thing in it, right? Which I've never heard of before. It was, it's called,
Oh, it's called a, a something, a, a level, a team, something like that. It's got a weird
name and it's basically, it's not working correctly at the moment, but it's like a stalker
thing that they've had in all the old games. But basically what it is is like the zone is
what it's called, which is the whole Chernobyl exclusion zone. It's an open world map. Um,
there's all these different factions in the, in the zone and they all go around and they do their
own thing. So like, I don't know what the factions names are, but they will fight in for different
things. So loads of times I've been like going along and I've hearing gunfire and then there's
just people fighting, like shooting each other, but that's dynamic. That's not just a scripted
event there everywhere. That shit happens everywhere. If you're running around and you've
got a fucking mutant, Jason, you have a people will shoot the mutant. You know what I mean?
It's very dynamic, but what they're doing is they, they go, they'll all these survivors and people
like that, they're shooting other people and then taking over their bases and then setting up home
there. So it's all like, it's all dynamic. It's always happening. The whole world is going on,
not if they're not spawning, they're still there doing their shit. That's not working properly at
the moment. So once they get that going, it's going to change the whole game because right now
I think they've got a weird thing where people are spawning like 80 meters in front of you when
they should already be there doing their stuff. It's a really unique feature they've got that
I've never, I've never seen. I've been, I know Bethesda have talked about it before and people
going around their daily lives and stuff, but apparently when it worked in the old stalker
games, it was fantastic because you could get like a really high vantage point, get your binoculars
out and just watch like all these different wars happening and people taking over and stuff,
but it was all dynamic. So once they get that fixed, which is like one of their main priorities,
then I think it's going to change the game entirely. But yeah, once they, once they get it fixed,
it's going to be a damn fine game and they're going to add mods to it. There's already loads
of mods on PC, but they're adding console mods. That's what I'm saying. There's not mods on your
side as well. Not yet. They're going to add mods to Xbox and I think, you know, everyone just thinks
he's coming out on PlayStation in a few months. I'll probably just stick with it on Xbox because
mods will be better on Xbox because PlayStation mods are shit. They don't allow for what Xbox does
because they're funny, isn't they? With their asset switching and stuff. So they don't let you
actually add like new stuff in it. It's only switching of assets that are already in the game.
So yeah, I think, I think it's one of them games that you, it's definitely my sort of game where
you can just play. I think someone like Darryl would love that because it's just military
gas masks, you know, going in there fucking stabbing people up and shooting them and taking
their loot and stuff. And it's just something very satisfying about the freedom. So yesterday,
I'll just give you a quick little quest I did. I was just bowing about, went to a windmill,
because I had to find this geezer that people were looking for in the zone. Because he double
crossed someone or some shit. I don't fucking know. I went up there, he was rabbiting on saying,
he wanted to, he wanted to escape. So I was like, it's obviously got choice. You can just shoot him,
get the option. I'll fuck you, traitor or whatever. Or yeah, I'll help you. So I was like, yeah,
I'll help you. Always the underdogs. You know what I mean? I help the underdogs. And he was like,
oh, I need this. We need this artifact that's in a cave. If you can go and get the artifact for me,
then we'll leave. And I was like, cool. So I found the little cave, went in there and then there's a
fucking, I don't know what they're called, but people call them bloodsuckers. They're like,
you know, them things in dying light, the big scary fucking thing. It's like that. It's got big
fucking fangs and shit. He jumped out and he keeps going invisible. He killed me about 12 times.
I managed to kill him, but I was getting pretty fucking annoyed. But yeah, I killed him, went up,
got the artifact, went back up there. And then one of the dialogue options was like,
you didn't want to tell me that that thing was down there. He was like, oh, if I told you that was
down there, you wouldn't have done it, would you? I was like, nah, anyway, yeah, complete the mission
or whatever. Or saying, yeah, let's go. And he was like, right, let's go. And then just as we was
about to set off and I was going to take him out of the zone, because that was part of the mission,
I just decided to shoot him in the head. You literally tried to kill me. So that's just
changed the whole mission. But that's the dynamic part of it, because you're making the decisions
on the fly, you know? So I decided that you've double crossed me and I was going to help you.
So now I'll just kill you. So I killed him. But the game's dynamic in that way where you can just
shoot anyone and just- So it's going to go down your boulder's gate route of you just fucking
killing everyone again? No, no, he double crossed me. I said, I was trying to help the little geezer
because there's a whole faction after him. I even shot people that came to the windmill looking for
him. And then he tried to get me killed or just wanted me to put myself in danger with that mutant.
Didn't tell me about it. If he just said, there's a mutant down there, but I need that artifact,
I mean, all right, cool. I'll still get it for you. But he did-
You just said you wouldn't? No. You literally just said, a minute before,
you said, why didn't you tell me that that was down there? And he said, because you wouldn't
have gone down there. And you went, yeah. Yeah, well, whatever. He said, you wouldn't
have gone down there. There's no saying that I wouldn't have, but I would have because,
you know, I'm all for the little man. And then he fucked me up. He fucked me over,
made me die 12 times, made me angry. So it cost him his life. It's a costly lesson for him,
isn't it? But I like that dynamic where you can just make your decisions like that.
And that's very fun to me in games. So yeah, I'm excited. It's a very good game. I'm enjoying it.
Yeah. That's it. See you later, everyone. That's all I've got to say on Stalker, really.
What's this Horizon bollocks? Don't know. I just-
Have you not looked at anything on that either? What was it called?
Just see that picture and it made me laugh. What was it even called? I have no idea. What
did you fucking send me? Let me have a look. Let me have a look. More, Mortyrum, Light of Mortyrum.
I find it shocking that that is not instantly just flagged up and can be instantly sued. I
don't understand. Light of Mortyrum on Steam. Here we go. Polaris Quest is the publisher and
the developer. Release date to be announced in a world overrun by colossal machines. Explore the
vast open world. Build your base of operations. Oh, fucking course. Advanced technology. Train
me-mechanimals and take on formidable bosses starting from primitive age. Forge a new path
of development. Defy the mach- the machination. Machination? Survive the mechanimals. I fucking
hate that. I hate that- that wording. Machination. Machination. Machination. Fucking hell. That's
very stupid. And yeah, wow. It's very, um, oh my god. Yeah, it's very Horizon, isn't it?
It's ridiculous. Very, very Horizon. Even down to the fucking lights on the robots.
But you know where it will absolutely flop is number one because it's pretty much a direct
ripoff of Horizon. But number two is because they've taken a game like Horizon and turned it
into a survival with a building mechanic and other things that are fucking boring and rinsed over
constantly. You see what I mean? Every fucking game, even the ripoffs. Oh, let's make it so we
can build our base rather than just having a fucking base. Oh, oh, it's fucking terrible.
I hate it so much. I hate it. I bet it does, Will. Of course it won't. Why not? Because it just won't.
It won't. It'll be- it'll be exactly the same as fucking Power World. Yeah, Power World did.
There's a fucking video of someone cutting down a tree and oh look, the tree has health.
So every time I hit it- But Power World did exactly the same shit. It ripped Pokemon off and then
made the survival game out of it and it done very well. Yeah, but Pokemon's fucking huge.
Yeah. Horizon isn't- of all the things to rip off. I mean, Horizon's cool. Horizon is unique in its
premise, but it's so odd. And then you've got a ghost like Destiny. Oh yeah. Which is really weird,
which looks exactly like a ghost from Destiny. Yeah, realistic physics based building. Oh,
that was yummy. Unleash your creativity with a free-form building system powered by realistic
physics simulation. Construct a fortified stronghold or a cleverly designed shelter.
Every beam and brick is subject to real world physical forces, ensuring that your structures
are both visually stunning and able to withstand environmental challenges. Let your imagination
run wild as you explore the endless possibilities of architecture. Great. So let me
build a base that's going to get fucked up by the wind and by the rain that I'm constantly going to
have to repair. And that's going to be fucking ridiculous in terms of resources to build.
That's the fun part for people, isn't it? Going out and repairing stuff.
It's not fucking fun. I mean, it's not my game. It's obviously not aimed towards me, which is fine.
There'll be people that like that stuff that look at you going,
why are you playing WoW over and over again? Fuck me. Does it have to be every game?
Does it every game? I reckon if you've got a list of all the games that have been released over the
last, what, three, four years, guarantee more than two thirds of them are survival games.
No. It's just bollocks. Everything's got fucking building in it. Everything.
Yeah, I don't. I'm not a massive fan of building. I'll be with you on that. But then there'd be
more people that are. So you have to just suck it up. As long as it's not mandatory. It is what it
is, isn't it? The the the the the real one that made me realize that I definitely, definitely am
never ever going to be any sort of builder in any game was Valheim. Because I couldn't even build a
fucking shed in now because you have to put like support beams in for the support beams.
And then you put it. Yeah. I don't how you put a panel in and it goes from green to orange.
And then when you finally place it, it goes to red and then you've got five seconds and everything
fucking falls apart. What the fuck is this? This is ridiculous. And then you go on you go on YouTube
and you see the things that people are building. How did you even get the resources to do that?
I'm struggling with my little car. Yeah, because you had to build a car to even put stuff in it
just to carry it. Yeah. Whereas you were running back and forth. And then even the car is fucking
bouncing up and down and shit's falling out of it. I'll tell you what our problem is, is that they're
they're very fun and in practice when you're doing it, very, very fun. I like the gathering
resources part. Yeah. However, I feel like you and me are the same in that one little slight
inconvenience. I ain't fucking doing it again. Yeah. If I've gone and built an entire property,
not even anything crazy, you're talking like two or three stories and they're just boxes,
but they've got all my stuff in them. Something breaks and it all falls apart. I'm not doing it
again. That game's being switched off and uninstalled. It's not happening. I think that's
what happened with Valheim is I had my little car fucking attached it to myself. I had a good system
going, went and fucking got the resources and then a troll fucking whacked me and I lost my car with
all the shit in it. So I went, nah, I ain't having it. I got raided by a bunch of fucking enemies
because you get raided on that and they smash my house to bits. See, I worked around that
and not rebuilding because you could terraform the environment. Yeah. Well, no, I built a, I built a
a fucking mountain range around my base. I had my base kept getting raided and then realized that
you can actually make mountains. So I literally just made a fucking wall around my base of just
fucking rock that I terraformed so that when my base was getting raided, they couldn't fucking,
cause they couldn't, they can't break through the floor essentially. So I was sweet as a nut and I
felt very, very fucking safe and secure and I loved it. And then my house fell apart. You can do it.
See, you're smart. I know I can do it, but my house fell apart, my house degraded and it fell apart
because I think one of them threw something and it just hit the right bit and it just, it just all
crumbled because it was like 10 stories high. It looked like a fucking Jenga set inside my,
because what I'd done is I'd built this massive, I don't know why I built this massive high rise,
but as a decoy, everything was underground. So I dug down and I also built up, but I built up and
then made it look like standard living quarters. It was like four or five stories up with all shit
loads of supports and stuff like that. And in all the supports, I'd made little cubby holes where
I'd put stuff and then hidden it like by putting panels in the way and other supports and stuff
like that. So if anyone ever raided me, they wouldn't be able to find off the shit. But then,
yeah, I dug all the way down by like two floors and then outwards and make basically hid it.
And then it all fell apart because I had like a million different supports.
Once again though, very smart.
Yeah, I enjoyed it. And then it's when it breaks and you go, I'm not doing this again.
I'm really not doing it again.
Do you remember how much fun we had when we went out on that raft?
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And then we got absolutely battered.
Didn't one of us fall off and drown or something or was drowning?
I think we spent maybe like an hour, hour and a half of sailing and then finally made it to
this island because we didn't take anything, did we? In case we died and there was poltergeists.
Oh mate, yeah. You started shooting at them or something.
Yeah. And they fucked us up and then we eventually fucking made it back. But the
bit that ruined that though was that when we was playing together with the, because it was cross
play, wasn't it? Is that the fucking, I was underground and knew it was fucking miles high
and vice versa. And it was a cunt. I remember the poltergeists, because I'm sure they were just like
floating along the beach. Floating ghosts, yeah.
And you was like, I'm going to shoot them. I said, don't shoot them. You shot at them. And then
all of a sudden they just come flying across the ocean.
Yeah. Yeah. And there was nothing we could do.
No, you just stuck there. And then we find like a massive turtle shell and jumped on it.
Yeah. And then it moved and you jumped off and then you were drowning.
Yeah. Fucking, so much fun.
It was cool though. It was so much fun. You do have your fun with them. It's just, I just,
oh. Yeah, it's just the building.
I just can't do the building, man. I don't like it. I mean, even after saying all of that,
some people probably listen to that guy. What do you mean? You built a skyscraper and then a
fucking underground mine. But it weren't how you think that it is. It wasn't successful.
We give a bolder case and more flowers. Please.
What, because of their January update? Because of their new update that they said
they weren't doing any more updates. And then they just go and do more updates than
most games. Well, they're bringing in cross play, ain't they? Finally.
So Larry and studio said, like an aged mentor in an inspiring 1980s film montage, we're filled
with prides in all the mods you've been crafting and using since the release of our official mod
tools in September. And just under three months, you've uploaded more than 3000 mods, downloaded
over 70 million and created a spell to turn your enemies into cheese.
For those of you looking for an introduction into using mods, head over to Larry and his channel
from hell where I'm sure that I had to say that name. I, I will break things down and
shine a spotlight on a few choice recommendations. We'll be wrapping up our feature heavy updates
for boulders gate free soon. This is not yet the end for our mod tools with the continued support
of our models in the community testing out new features. We have big updates still to come,
including adding even more functionality to let you tell your own stories. But before we bid
feroon adieu, uh, in search of stranger shores, adieu, adios, adieu, adieu, adieu, adieu, adieu,
in search of stranger shores, we have one more major patch waiting around the corner
arriving next year. This update will introduce some of the most eagerly awaited features to
boulders gate free cross play photo mode along with 12 new subclasses. Let's take a look what
you can expect to see in patch eight cross play. Um, whether you're joining PS5 players from your
PC or generally your, well, we know cosplayers. I don't need to explain that. Uh, subclasses
patch eight will introduce a new way to play a favorite class and in one new subclass for each
of the existing bard, barbarian, cleric, jurid, paladin, fighter, monk, ranger, rogue and sorcerer,
warlock and wizard. Um, expect new abilities, animations, voice effects, summons and cantrips
and unique voice dialogue lines. Um, so these are the classes for the barge. You've got college of
glamor barbarian. You've got path of giants, cleric. You've got deaths, domain, jurid. You've got
circle of stars, paladin over the crown, fighter, arcane archer, monk, drunken master, ranger,
swarm keeper, rogue, swashbuckler, sorcerer, shadow magic, warlock, hex blade, wizard, blade singing.
Oh my God, sorry. We get to pick our subclasses tomorrow. Oh yes. Photo mode, camera settings,
lens settings, scene settings, post processing effects, frames, stickers, and just, it's just
never ending and you just, they don't need to do this. They've already like won at boulders gate
as like one of the greatest games ever made. Yeah. Critically acclaimed. Yeah, but they're doing it
for the love. That's what I mean. It's the same with no man's sky. That's exactly what I'm saying.
They don't need to do this and yet they're still doing it. They really are like the pioneers of
the industry right now. But also when, if they're not doing that, then what else are they fucking
doing? Creating the next game bro. Exactly. Divinity original sin free. Exactly. So,
so if you can still do it with boulders gate, then why would you not? There's no, there's nothing
against that. Speaking of boulders gate, do you know who might make the next one?
Oh, very famous man. What a heavy, very rich man. Oh, don't say fucking someone. Don't say like
Elon or something. Fucking hell no. No, no, I'm not. He's not, but he did. I think he tweeted
just today saying how much he's Hasbro. So he wants to buy Hasbro, which is like where I get
all my toys, black series, star wars things, but also Hasbro own Dungeons and Dragons. So he wants
to ruin fucking Hasbro. I don't think you're necessarily ruin it. We've got, if you've got
the money to put the right people in power to make the game, but you know, who takes who see
boulders is a weird one, right? Cause I've never played boulders gate one or two, but they got,
they had their hardcore fans that everyone loves, you know, much like stalker. Stalker is huge,
but I've never paid anyone, but now I understand why. So boulders gate one and two have got a
massive fan base, but now boulders gates free shine the spotlight. So everybody knows boulders
gate three now. So boulders gate four is not larry. So what do you do? Who the fuck do you
give boulders gate four to? If you could, I know you don't care too much for boulders gate, but I
do. It's my favorite game of all time by fucking quite some distance. Only game that comes close
is Witcher three, but I can't, I couldn't pick a fucking developer that I would want to do it.
I genuinely couldn't. It used to be Bethesda. They used to be my favorite just because I loved
oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout. They were my games, but they've just took such a strange turn now
where their game systems are still the same as they were. Starfield really fucked them up.
It was the same systems that it was 15 years ago. Well, it's the same systems just with updated
graphics. It's no good. But even the graphics ain't that great. No, they're not. And you've got...
Bethesda fell off. Yeah, to a degree. I believe they have and, but they would have been the,
the choices because they do it so well, the choice and stuff like that. But not even that is dead.
Their choice system still feels like it's 15 years ago. Now other games do choice so much better.
Yeah. Yeah. I feel like when it comes to a choice system in dialogues and things like that,
Bethesda are nowhere near the fucking, the, the, the top tier of that because any cunt can come up
with fucking reactions to questions. The only company that I would ever say have done choice,
which was even close to old school Bethesda when I used to love them was Bioware,
which made Mass Effect and Dragon Age. But seeing the Dragon Age, Valguard,
which I'll play at some point, not really taken off too well with most Dragon Age fans. I know
some people like it and O'Connor likes it, but most people I've seen not too fond of it for
mainly writing reasons. Obviously there's other reasons, but writing reasons, just saying it's
very, it's very spoon fed. And when I've watched the breakdown of why people are saying this,
I'll give you an example because I've watched a lot of reviews on it because I like Dragon Age.
I've played, I've played all of them apart from the first one. So there's a scene and this is all
the way through the game. Allegedly. I'm just saying what I've seen. There's like a, they're
like creep out over this lighthouse and then there's a dock down there. And, and I think it
was skill up and these are respected review. All right. And they said, they just spoon feed information
to you like you're a child. So they'll say, there's a dock down there. Docs are normally really busy
filled with boats and people putting apples on the ships and stuff. Cause everyone knows what a
fucking dock is. Do you know what I mean? But it's that constantly. And he's like, it gets to the
point where you're just like, stop explaining what everything is and let people fill in their blanks.
Almost like when you, when you walk past a chest or something and the character will go,
there's a chest over there. Maybe it's got something unique in it. Exactly. You go,
shut the fuck up. How about that? And that sort of stuff just takes you out of the game. Right.
Cause you remember in Ragnarok when it was constantly people just shouting tips at you.
I can't remember who it was. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Um, Mamiya. Yeah. It was just like,
why don't you try using fire? Why don't you shut the fuck up? Why don't you try throwing your axe
at that spot over there? Well, let me fucking have a look for a second. Let me, let me, let me figure
it out a little bit. I know. I do know what you mean. You don't want to be, um, it, it, yeah. Yeah.
I want to be treated like an adult who can play a game and I get it, but I also want,
I, it's a tricky one, man. It really is. But if, if people that really like RPGs and I usually go
to reviewers that I know have similar tastes in games to me, like the fallout freeze, not the
fallout force and stuff like that. If they're saying the writing is bad, that will just take
me out of the experience. I will definitely play Dragon Age Valgaard a hundred percent. Cause I love
Dragon Age, but I'm just not excited for it. Like I was hoping to be after seeing the reviews. So
yeah, I can't remember why I was talking about Dragon Age. What game was I talking about?
Yeah. So it's all the choice and thing. And I would have picked Bioware, but having gone down
the route where they're not really good storytellers allegedly anymore. Cause a lot of the team that was
there for Mass Effect and the old Dragon Age aren't there anymore. Then I don't know who I would want
to do. Boulder's Gate 4. And let's have it right. Boulder's Gate 4 gets announced in whatever state
it is, whether it's another, uh, ARPG and you know, turn-based or if it's a fucking third person
action adventure, whatever it may be, that's going to have the world's eyes on it. I think your answer
to it would be to just simply come away from its style as it is now and go to something else. Go,
go to a third person, go to an action combat, go come away from how Boulder's Gate 3 is because
all you're going to, cause Larian Studios did a, did a, an amazing thing with creating that game
and an absolutely incredible job. But at the same time, they fucked it up for everyone else
because they set the bar so high and the community is so like the Boulder's, the people, the Boulder's
Gate 3 community and the people that love Boulder's Gate are, they're, they're like Trump supporters
in that you will never ever get them to change their opinion about how fucking great that game
is. They just fucking suck the cock of that game. Rightly so, very good game, but you'll never,
you're never going to deter them from that. It's the same way as Star Wars fans or fucking
World of Warcraft fans. People that, that love shit in general, it's very hard to turn people
away from something that they absolutely love. And so all you're going to get is the people that make
Boulder's Gate 4 is they're just going to compare it to Boulder's Gate 3. And if you've already set
the bar, it'll be like someone else trying to make an Elden Ring. It's not going to happen because
you're going to go, well, you ain't done it as fucking good as those people have. So fuck you,
you're, you're, you're no good. It's going to be in such a spotlight that everyone will be so fucking
critical. I've really, really noticed it after, over the last like couple of months, and I don't
know why, of just how critical and toxic the gaming community can be with reviewing games.
Some games just getting review, review bombed just for the sake of it, because people can. And a lot
of people are just assholes because they can be behind a computer screen. And when it comes to
gaming, that's so prevalent. And with games are massive like Boulder's Gate, when, if that's not
done properly or to what everyone else's standard is, then it's just going to be a big issue. And I
feel like coming away from its actual style of what it is now and trying something different,
if it's shit, it's shit, but at least you've tried something different. Because if you try and
recreate what Boulder's Gate 3 was, but put that into Boulder's Gate 4, it ain't going to work
because you won't be able to top it. It's not going to happen. No matter what, Boulder's Gate 4,
no matter who takes it, they are under a microscope. They are losing everything straight away because
yeah, it will be compared to Boulder's Gate 3 in every single aspect, facet possible. It'd just be
under a microscope from day one. But the worst thing that is even worse for them is if they do
go down that road and continue that style of game and they make Boulder's Gate 4, then Larian are
more than likely going to finish Divinity Original Sin 3. And then everyone will move over. And no,
not that. They'll compare Original Sin 3 to Boulder's Gate 4 and be like, why is that not like this?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. They've done that better than Blart and they're not even making Boulder's Gate.
Because Divinity Original Sin 2 is very much like Boulder's Gate. It's exactly the same,
but Boulder's Gate has just obviously got the D&D fan base. People are very fond of Divinity. It's
a huge game. But when the light got shone on Boulder's Gate for being in Dungeons & Dragons
universe, so a lot of people know all the classes and systems and stuff, Divinity is their own
creation. And it hasn't got to follow a rule set like D&D has. I think you need to come away if
you're going to take it serious. Or however, look at it from the flip side,
fucking big balls if you decide to carry on down the same path and go, no, actually, we're going to
do it better than fucking what Larian did. We're going to top that because it's, I can't see that
being possible, if I'm honest. It's the same as fucking someone trying to top what From Software
does. It's not going to happen. Some companies are just really fucking good at what they do.
And that's their niche, the specific games that they make. And you're just not going to do any
better than what they're already doing. I feel like that with Blizzard and with WoW, bring out
as many MMOs as you want. None of them. They're just not going to do it in the same aspect of
beating something like WoW. It's just not going to happen. You'll get stuff very, very close,
like Final Fantasy and other MMOs where people go, oh, this is way better. But the fucking
multi, multi millions of people that are still sat there playing that game, you know what I mean?
You're never going to shift it. I don't know. I know you're going to get upset about this because
it's your baby. I don't know if that's necessarily because WoW is the best or because it's the
pioneer. It was the first of its main kind. It's addiction. It's straight addiction. Yeah,
but it's the first of its kind. So it was the juggernaut and it's ran for years. So the content
has always been added. So it's massively like probably bloated, but it's still the best.
It's massively like probably bloated with too much stuff if you want. But there's something for
everybody in there. So for someone to come in now with a baby of an MMO and have to build that
over time and battle that is impossible. And then yeah, you're right. It's addiction because
people, people sit and go fucking hate World of Warcraft. Then they'll look at, you know,
New World. Obviously it's not even close to the level, but they're like, that's fucking shit.
Oh, I fucking hate that. Or they'll do, they'll do exactly what people like me do. And they'll go,
my God, what a breath of fresh air. That's incredible. Anyway, see ya. I'm going back.
Yeah, exactly. I need to go back. It's like, it's like going into a fucking,
it's like going into a scrap yard as a suit and knowing that you could fucking change the whole
dynamics here and make this whole operation smoother. But this place has been active for
50 years and ran by a fucking big fat ballgazer in the back and everyone respects him. His name's
Dave, but you're going to, you want to fucking remove him and replace him with a computer.
It might be better and make you more money, but everyone in that scrap yard is going to go, no,
fuck you. You've been doing this for 50 years. It's staying as it is. Get out of here with your
clean shoes. And that, and that's what it's like. You try and bring new MMOs into that space and
it'll be the same with fucking boulders gate four. You're trying to enter a space that already has
a company that has the monopoly on it. It's very, very difficult. It'd be like trying to
fucking go against Amazon. It's not going to happen. You can try it. There'll be many that
will, and there'll be many that will be very successful, but they will never be as successful
as the top dog because the bar is that the gap is already too fucking ginormous.
Yeah, I agree. And yeah, so boulders gate three is great. It's not my cup of tea. Maybe with the
cross-play aspect of it, it might be because I am, I am excited for, for me and Steph to play it
together. Cause obviously I've got it on this and I've also got it on the PlayStation. So it would
be nice to be able to, to see how that works. But ultimately it's not my kind of game. Um, but
funnily enough, DND is, I really like it when we go and play DND, but that's a different atmosphere
because we're together and it's a lot more fun. I can see, I get to see the anger in your silly
little face when I say something annoying. I can't do that from the, from the TV, you know what I mean?
No, but you can do it when you're playing with Steph and you can have your funny little interactions
right next to each other. Exactly. Which is why I'm, which is why I'm excited for it in that respect.
Um, but, but yeah, it, it, cause boulders gate four is, is going to come out. Um, isn't there fucking
GTA six trailer too was also fucking teased by rock star for December something. I saw someone
tweet out saying it's coming out between November 25th and November 25th, 2025.
Well, just banner. I think that's just a lot of, cause it, cause the trailer came out like a year
ago, people are getting all hyped up. It's funny that the trailer came out like a year ago and was
like, I bet we don't see it again for ages. And then it's literally been a year. Yeah. It's been
a long time. It's been a year. Yeah. But it's also rock star. Was it last year? It has been a year.
It always very, very close to a fucking year. That is scary. How fast that's gone, man. Oh my God.
What's all we got? It says 22 hours on fucking Reddit. Um, there are only two options left for
me. December 3rd or December 10th. If nothing happens on either of these dates, um, then only
in 2025, uh, announcement, November 29th trailer, December 3rd is the only possible left dates. Um,
it can't come out on the 10th because their online DLC comes out on the 10th and later in December is
the mafia trailer. So it's tomorrow or never boys, unless they don't announce it. And that was 22
hours ago. It did GTA five, GTA six is not coming out. I'm going to, I will wager,
I will wager 10 great British pounds that GTA six does not release until 2026.
I wouldn't take that back. Cause it wouldn't surprise me. Cause I just, I just don't see it
coming out. I think you'll get another trailer. This is exactly what we said when we, when the
first trailer come out, you'll get a secondary trailer with some actual gameplay involved in it.
And then you'll get a full gameplay trailer and then you'll get the announcement that it's been
pushed back. And then you'll get another trailer and then you'll get a release date of 2026 in the
first quarter. That's exactly what happened, but I'll leave it there. Sweet. Sweet gaze. See you later
everyone.
