WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.379
Hello everyone, it's another roasting day, 31,

00:00:03.720 --> 00:00:08.539
32 degrees, and we're here, aren't we? We are.

00:00:08.640 --> 00:00:10.880
We are, welcome to Watch the Buttons. This is

00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:14.939
your gaming podcast with very little gaming knowledge.

00:00:15.140 --> 00:00:20.620
We try our best. Struggle our way through. Episode

00:00:20.620 --> 00:00:26.679
141, 141. Nearly 150. It's a big boy. And yeah.

00:00:28.550 --> 00:00:33.270
Any news? I don't know. Have you kept up with

00:00:33.270 --> 00:00:35.390
anything? I haven't really seen anything. The

00:00:35.390 --> 00:00:38.070
only thing that I saw that was a little bit interesting,

00:00:38.170 --> 00:00:40.350
only because we've spoken about it not too long

00:00:40.350 --> 00:00:44.729
ago, was they're getting rid of PlayStation Stars.

00:00:45.090 --> 00:00:47.770
Oh, yeah. They gave me a trophy or something

00:00:47.770 --> 00:00:50.460
the other day saying, thanks. So I was like,

00:00:50.539 --> 00:00:52.200
oh, it's coming to an end, is it? Cash them points

00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:54.280
in. Yeah. Got myself a little fiver. Yeah, that's

00:00:54.280 --> 00:00:56.159
what I said to Mark on the way home. I said to

00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:57.140
him, I said, I'm pretty sure they're getting

00:00:57.140 --> 00:00:58.380
rid of him now. And he was like, what, all the

00:00:58.380 --> 00:01:00.140
vouchers and stuff? I was like, yeah, I think

00:01:00.140 --> 00:01:02.179
so. He was like, fuck, I better cash them all

00:01:02.179 --> 00:01:05.700
in. Yeah. Cheeky little cunts. Yeah, I've done

00:01:05.700 --> 00:01:09.980
that. I saw Donkey Kong got raving reviews. Nintendo

00:01:09.980 --> 00:01:13.400
got 10 out of 10. It's like the best action platformer

00:01:13.400 --> 00:01:16.200
-y thing for all time. You see Cyberpunk had

00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:18.159
an update. Yeah, I watched the live stream of

00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:20.549
that, actually. Yeah. How long was the live stream?

00:01:20.750 --> 00:01:22.950
They live streamed it? About an hour or so, yeah.

00:01:23.129 --> 00:01:25.730
Yeah? Decent? Yeah. Did you see all the stuff

00:01:25.730 --> 00:01:29.390
they're doing? I saw the announcement trailer

00:01:29.390 --> 00:01:32.450
for it and then it come up with a fat list at

00:01:32.450 --> 00:01:35.590
the end of it. I saw new quests and new vehicles

00:01:35.590 --> 00:01:38.409
and stuff like that. Yeah, so they added... New

00:01:38.409 --> 00:01:40.109
missions. I don't know if you were playing it

00:01:40.109 --> 00:01:42.909
when they originally added the... I can't remember

00:01:42.909 --> 00:01:44.590
what they called it now. So you can change the

00:01:44.590 --> 00:01:47.269
colour of the cars. yeah crystal coat i think

00:01:47.269 --> 00:01:49.849
it's called yeah so you can like see a car and

00:01:49.849 --> 00:01:52.569
then scan it and then like your car will then

00:01:52.569 --> 00:01:55.129
change the color of your car on the fly that's

00:01:55.129 --> 00:01:57.090
cool but they only did that for a certain amount

00:01:57.090 --> 00:02:00.390
of cars because they said anything they do in

00:02:00.390 --> 00:02:02.069
the updates has to be law accurate so there has

00:02:02.069 --> 00:02:04.409
to be a reason for this stuff happening it can't

00:02:04.409 --> 00:02:06.189
just be a random update where you add stuff yeah

00:02:06.189 --> 00:02:08.229
it has to be a reason so they were like oh it's

00:02:08.229 --> 00:02:10.629
like a new technology that came in on like the

00:02:10.629 --> 00:02:12.710
high -end cars but then obviously they wanted

00:02:12.710 --> 00:02:15.960
to add it to pretty much all the vehicles they're

00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:17.379
like doesn't make sense to have an old banger

00:02:17.379 --> 00:02:20.340
it's got crystal coat in it so they've made it

00:02:20.340 --> 00:02:23.759
law accurate by saying that you're using like

00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:26.360
a hacked version of it on a vehicle so when you

00:02:26.360 --> 00:02:29.520
use it in an old banger like the the the screen's

00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:32.060
all like jittery and this is unauthorized oh

00:02:32.060 --> 00:02:34.819
that's cool yeah it's very cool um but yeah i

00:02:34.819 --> 00:02:36.400
think a lot of people are very upset about the

00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:39.300
update because whilst obviously you know people

00:02:39.300 --> 00:02:44.500
are just ungrateful um And they said... Because

00:02:44.500 --> 00:02:46.219
I think the announcement kept getting delayed.

00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:49.759
So people were like, oh, new expansion or something.

00:02:49.860 --> 00:02:51.659
Like, bringing it up in their own heads more

00:02:51.659 --> 00:02:54.120
than need be. Yeah. And then it just turned out

00:02:54.120 --> 00:02:57.039
to be a few vehicles and some colours and Mac.

00:02:57.939 --> 00:02:59.699
You can play it on the Mac now or something.

00:02:59.699 --> 00:03:02.419
Yeah, yeah, I saw that. And loads of PC stuff.

00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:04.599
So, like, better graphics and all this other

00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:06.180
shit. Because they're saying that they want it

00:03:06.180 --> 00:03:10.360
to be, like, also a tech prototype thing. So

00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:13.110
people can... use it as like a showcase game

00:03:13.110 --> 00:03:17.150
yeah because i saw um i saw in the thing that

00:03:17.150 --> 00:03:22.490
they added a lot of um things for amd uh yeah

00:03:22.490 --> 00:03:25.629
added support for amd fidelity super resolution

00:03:25.629 --> 00:03:31.449
um and then yeah a lot of basically just a lot

00:03:31.449 --> 00:03:34.669
of support to make the game look and feel better

00:03:34.669 --> 00:03:37.919
um frame generation available and compatible

00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:40.360
hardware blah blah blah I won't bore everyone

00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:43.479
with the details for it but it's all foreign

00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:46.139
to me I don't understand PC stuff but I don't

00:03:46.139 --> 00:03:49.180
massively understand it I know parts of it but

00:03:49.180 --> 00:03:51.639
by the reading of it they've just made it so

00:03:51.639 --> 00:03:54.219
that it will be able to run even beefier which

00:03:54.219 --> 00:03:55.939
is quite cool because it was already a very very

00:03:55.939 --> 00:04:00.099
pretty game but people getting annoyed about

00:04:00.099 --> 00:04:04.099
it like lack of stuff they were expecting more

00:04:04.099 --> 00:04:06.580
but obviously that's their own but I mean at

00:04:06.580 --> 00:04:09.539
the same time sort of this was they had a final

00:04:09.539 --> 00:04:12.199
update like five updates they're doing No Man's

00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:14.099
Sky they keep announcing more updates when they're

00:04:14.099 --> 00:04:16.240
like oh there's going to be no more so like just

00:04:16.240 --> 00:04:18.420
be happy that they're still supporting a single

00:04:18.420 --> 00:04:20.000
player game they're making no more game money

00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:23.480
from yeah because the game is done not as in

00:04:23.480 --> 00:04:27.379
like finished but the game is the story is done

00:04:27.379 --> 00:04:31.310
and then obviously you had the DLC So it's sort

00:04:31.310 --> 00:04:33.850
of like, well, what? How much more do you want?

00:04:33.850 --> 00:04:36.569
People keep crying about... I turn the comments

00:04:36.569 --> 00:04:38.949
off because it annoys me, the live chat, because

00:04:38.949 --> 00:04:40.850
normally it's desynced, so they start saying

00:04:40.850 --> 00:04:43.269
stuff and it's all out of whack. But everyone

00:04:43.269 --> 00:04:45.430
just kept spamming New Game Plus. I think people

00:04:45.430 --> 00:04:47.170
just desperately want that for some reason, but

00:04:47.170 --> 00:04:50.110
whatever. I thought it already had a New Game

00:04:50.110 --> 00:04:52.610
Plus. Not by the comments, it doesn't, but...

00:04:52.610 --> 00:04:57.470
What? I swear. What, really? I don't think so,

00:04:57.569 --> 00:05:00.920
unless they were just being trolly. Let me have

00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:04.740
a look. Oh, yeah, the first thing. New game plus

00:05:04.740 --> 00:05:08.600
when? Still hasn't. I'm wrong then. It's been

00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:11.220
a while since I've finished Cyberpunk, so maybe

00:05:11.220 --> 00:05:14.500
it doesn't. Why would you want a new game plus?

00:05:14.879 --> 00:05:17.180
I suppose, I guess, because you then get to keep

00:05:17.180 --> 00:05:21.720
all of your upgrades and all of that, kind of.

00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:24.399
Yeah. You get that? That's part of the game,

00:05:24.459 --> 00:05:27.199
though, isn't it? Leveling up, journey through

00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:29.519
becoming like a little street thug to like a...

00:05:29.819 --> 00:05:33.220
Big time, Charlie. Added four new vehicles, including

00:05:33.220 --> 00:05:38.439
several side jobs tied to acquiring them. Then...

00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:42.839
We've added auto drive. Auto drive. This cutting

00:05:42.839 --> 00:05:44.980
-edge autonomous driving feature will take you

00:05:44.980 --> 00:05:49.259
to your chosen destination. If you have no set

00:05:49.259 --> 00:05:51.199
destination, it will take you on a leisurely

00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:53.560
ride through the streets of Night City. Simply

00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:56.399
hop in. Any of your vehicles, make sure you're

00:05:56.399 --> 00:05:59.800
on a road and hold H, which is for PC, or left

00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:02.959
stick on the consoles to activate. That's cool.

00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:05.680
That is quite cool. You've got taxis as well.

00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:07.939
You can use Delamain as a taxi service. Self

00:06:07.939 --> 00:06:10.300
-driving Delamain cabs are now available on demand.

00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:14.240
Yeah, crystal coat. They're trying to make the

00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:17.899
game, they were saying in the live stream, they're

00:06:17.899 --> 00:06:20.459
trying to make the game like the world more.

00:06:21.080 --> 00:06:23.100
You know what I mean? People love Night City,

00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:24.959
so they're trying to make Night City. So what

00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:27.220
they've done before they've done the railway

00:06:27.220 --> 00:06:28.879
system is you can catch a train now. But you

00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:30.399
could in the first trailer. People were like,

00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:32.779
oh, there's trains. People love trains for some

00:06:32.779 --> 00:06:34.420
reason. I think there's definitely something

00:06:34.420 --> 00:06:38.879
there for being able to play a game like that

00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:43.139
and in that world, but then make it sort of normal.

00:06:43.459 --> 00:06:47.680
Yeah, yeah. Like I can have a robotic arm that

00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:50.240
will slice someone in half. but I want to be

00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:54.160
able to get on a bus. There's something about

00:06:54.160 --> 00:06:59.060
that. I think that's probably why, natively,

00:06:59.060 --> 00:07:06.800
something like survival games have that popularity

00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:11.519
because it scratches that. Or like, say, RuneScape,

00:07:11.579 --> 00:07:13.120
for example. We've all fucking played RuneScape,

00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:16.100
whether we was five or 72. We've all played it.

00:07:16.220 --> 00:07:17.959
There's something about just standing there and

00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:20.259
cutting a tree. I'm not even doing anything,

00:07:20.379 --> 00:07:24.319
but I'm just cutting a tree. Numbers go up. Yeah,

00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:27.139
and it's just so satisfying. So there's definitely

00:07:27.139 --> 00:07:29.240
something there for being able to do normal shit.

00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:31.300
Everyone that's ever played GTA at some point

00:07:31.300 --> 00:07:33.079
has driven slowly and stopped to realize. Every

00:07:33.079 --> 00:07:34.720
person's done that. Why do we all do that? I

00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:36.319
don't know, because it's normal. Exactly. Because

00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:37.600
you think, oh, fucking hell, I'll do this in

00:07:37.600 --> 00:07:41.060
real life. That's probably why things like simulators,

00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:45.819
like farming simulator, are so popular. Because

00:07:45.819 --> 00:07:48.879
it's like, I get to... I see a lot of like Euro

00:07:48.879 --> 00:07:52.220
truck simulator with like full rigged setups

00:07:52.220 --> 00:07:54.259
and shit like that. And then it's like, you find

00:07:54.259 --> 00:07:56.759
out these people are actually HGV drivers outside.

00:07:57.240 --> 00:07:58.959
Like what the fuck? So you're a trucker to go

00:07:58.959 --> 00:08:01.660
home and then do more trucking, which is sort

00:08:01.660 --> 00:08:07.920
of like, I get that. Like I do get that. Streaming

00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:11.399
simulator. Get me on it. I'll jump on it. Like

00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:15.849
it's, yeah, it's definitely got that. flavour

00:08:15.849 --> 00:08:19.670
about it. In terms of Cyberpunk, though, would

00:08:19.670 --> 00:08:24.050
you want to see it do a No Man's Sky? Or would

00:08:24.050 --> 00:08:25.629
you get to a point where you just want another

00:08:25.629 --> 00:08:27.170
Cyberpunk? Yeah, well, they're already working

00:08:27.170 --> 00:08:28.709
on the next one, aren't they? They've already

00:08:28.709 --> 00:08:30.350
said they're working on the next one. Obviously,

00:08:30.350 --> 00:08:31.990
it'll be out way after The Witcher and stuff,

00:08:32.129 --> 00:08:35.009
but they're already working on it. But yeah,

00:08:35.070 --> 00:08:38.309
just little and often updates on little updates

00:08:38.309 --> 00:08:40.389
like that every now and again are nice. It keeps

00:08:40.389 --> 00:08:43.169
people invested, keeps people coming back. But

00:08:43.169 --> 00:08:45.230
it can't be too resource heavy. These things

00:08:45.230 --> 00:08:48.250
take a lot of time and they're trying to be law

00:08:48.250 --> 00:08:50.470
accurate and stuff. They don't want to just add

00:08:50.470 --> 00:08:53.389
things in for the sake of it. So I think what

00:08:53.389 --> 00:08:56.129
they've done is very good. But if that's your

00:08:56.129 --> 00:08:58.110
sole game, that's the only game you play, and

00:08:58.110 --> 00:09:00.250
you start getting a bit upset thinking they were

00:09:00.250 --> 00:09:02.590
doing something bigger, then unfortunately that's

00:09:02.590 --> 00:09:04.169
something you've built up yourself, isn't it?

00:09:04.210 --> 00:09:08.070
Yeah, because if you get lean into what the community

00:09:08.070 --> 00:09:10.559
is saying, lean into hype. You go, oh my God,

00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:12.159
there's a DLC coming and there isn't. Yeah, I'd

00:09:12.159 --> 00:09:14.399
imagine that you would get pissed off by that.

00:09:14.799 --> 00:09:18.840
But like you say, it's more for you for speculating

00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:21.000
so much on that. Temper your expectations, man.

00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:23.720
Expect to be disappointed and you can never be

00:09:23.720 --> 00:09:27.840
disappointed. We definitely can. Can, have been

00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:31.919
and will be. Probably. Space theme still going

00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:34.960
well? Yep. Yep. Yep. Death Stranding's done.

00:09:35.500 --> 00:09:37.980
You've done it, have you? Done it, baby. Good.

00:09:39.230 --> 00:09:43.309
Yeah, I'm glad it's done. No, I loved it. Glad

00:09:43.309 --> 00:09:45.029
it's done, though. Is there something where we're

00:09:45.029 --> 00:09:47.330
able to talk about it, or are you going to be

00:09:47.330 --> 00:09:49.169
too worried about spoiling it for other people?

00:09:49.409 --> 00:09:51.169
I can talk about it. Obviously, I won't say what

00:09:51.169 --> 00:09:53.450
happens. Yeah. It's just different, isn't it?

00:09:53.590 --> 00:09:56.090
Yeah. I'd say that the story towards the end

00:09:56.090 --> 00:09:58.610
started getting a bit more confusing again. I

00:09:58.610 --> 00:10:00.750
was like, because a lot happens in a short space

00:10:00.750 --> 00:10:02.289
of time, and I'm just like, whoa, whoa, wait,

00:10:02.710 --> 00:10:04.690
what, huh? And then it's on to the next, whoa,

00:10:04.889 --> 00:10:08.259
whoa, what? It's just constant. And then as soon

00:10:08.259 --> 00:10:11.139
as I finished it, I went straight on YouTube

00:10:11.139 --> 00:10:13.720
and was like, right. What does this mean? Ending

00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:17.059
explained. The whole story explains, you know.

00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:23.179
Yeah, once again, I did quite a few sub -orders

00:10:23.179 --> 00:10:26.179
early on, which are like extra orders where you

00:10:26.179 --> 00:10:28.080
can get the SS rating and then you can unlock

00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:31.539
new stuff. But then after a while, I was just

00:10:31.539 --> 00:10:32.980
like, fuck it. I'm just going to do the main

00:10:32.980 --> 00:10:34.320
stuff. I'm just going to finish it, you know.

00:10:34.419 --> 00:10:36.879
It's on Brutal as well. There's like... I finished

00:10:36.879 --> 00:10:38.620
it on the hardest difficulty. I don't know if

00:10:38.620 --> 00:10:41.460
there's a new one that unlocks, maybe. But yeah,

00:10:41.539 --> 00:10:44.700
fucking hell, man. The whole game was fine, but

00:10:44.700 --> 00:10:47.379
there was a few bits towards the end. I was like,

00:10:47.539 --> 00:10:50.399
you are fucking taking the piss here. How is

00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:52.960
this even possible? But it's one of them games

00:10:52.960 --> 00:10:54.679
where you have to find your own way of doing

00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:57.740
it. You can't just stand there shooting. You've

00:10:57.740 --> 00:11:02.940
got to think outside the box. Yeah, the game

00:11:02.940 --> 00:11:09.149
is great. The ending's great. Good. Interesting

00:11:09.149 --> 00:11:12.350
about the third one. I won't say no more now.

00:11:12.409 --> 00:11:16.429
I'll tell you off. Oh, what does it? Oh, yeah,

00:11:16.470 --> 00:11:18.190
definitely. A little interlude into it. Yeah,

00:11:18.190 --> 00:11:20.950
it leans into the next one, which is interesting.

00:11:21.309 --> 00:11:23.730
I didn't know they were doing another one. Well,

00:11:23.789 --> 00:11:26.809
you don't know, but you assume from the ending

00:11:26.809 --> 00:11:29.490
that there will be. That there will be. I mean,

00:11:29.509 --> 00:11:32.590
we assumed that with fucking Days Gone. And look

00:11:32.590 --> 00:11:34.450
what happened. Yeah, I know. This is Kojima,

00:11:34.470 --> 00:11:35.610
though, isn't it? He can do what he wants. This

00:11:35.610 --> 00:11:37.289
is true. He can do what he wants. But you've

00:11:37.289 --> 00:11:39.529
got... I mean, they ended it from the very beginning,

00:11:39.549 --> 00:11:44.769
to be honest with you. It's... The whole theme's

00:11:44.769 --> 00:11:47.429
about the plate gates. So the plate gates open

00:11:47.429 --> 00:11:50.590
once Chiral Network's been expanded. So a lot

00:11:50.590 --> 00:11:53.070
of plate gates are opening, or a plate gate opened,

00:11:53.190 --> 00:11:55.600
which is then how you get to Australia. which

00:11:55.600 --> 00:11:57.240
is basically connecting one part of the world

00:11:57.240 --> 00:11:58.820
to the other part of the world and they think

00:11:58.820 --> 00:12:00.740
by expanding Australia it's going to open more

00:12:00.740 --> 00:12:02.500
plate gates to more parts of the world so then

00:12:02.500 --> 00:12:04.100
you can unite more parts of the world and eventually

00:12:04.100 --> 00:12:06.399
the whole world is united so in your head you're

00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:07.899
thinking alright the next one's going to be in

00:12:07.899 --> 00:12:10.340
another country but there's nothing that tells

00:12:10.340 --> 00:12:12.019
you this and there's nothing I'm not spoiling

00:12:12.019 --> 00:12:14.720
anything this is just me and knowing Kojima I

00:12:14.720 --> 00:12:17.600
reckon eventually maybe not the next one but

00:12:17.600 --> 00:12:19.580
maybe space it's going to end up in space of

00:12:19.580 --> 00:12:20.620
course it'll end up in space it's going to end

00:12:20.620 --> 00:12:23.480
up in space at some point but wouldn't you need

00:12:25.169 --> 00:12:29.289
Because isn't the whole premise is that it is

00:12:29.289 --> 00:12:32.009
the world as it is. I know it's not the world

00:12:32.009 --> 00:12:35.450
as this world is, but the countries and everything

00:12:35.450 --> 00:12:37.789
were already in place with governments and settlements

00:12:37.789 --> 00:12:41.110
and people and blah, blah, blah, blah. So surely

00:12:41.110 --> 00:12:43.029
if you were then going to take it into space,

00:12:43.250 --> 00:12:48.830
you would need and civilisation in space. Because

00:12:48.830 --> 00:12:50.490
you won't make that work. You'll just make something

00:12:50.490 --> 00:12:53.149
up, won't you? Oh, now you went for this door,

00:12:53.190 --> 00:12:55.870
now you're in space. Work it out. Yeah, figure

00:12:55.870 --> 00:12:58.169
it out. It's obvious, you idiots. Yeah, there's

00:12:58.169 --> 00:13:00.509
aliens. You've always known there's aliens. Yeah,

00:13:00.509 --> 00:13:02.850
yeah. Been hinting at them for the last two games.

00:13:03.350 --> 00:13:06.289
But no, interestingly, like, this is why he's

00:13:06.289 --> 00:13:08.570
such a genius, because there's, I forgot to mention

00:13:08.570 --> 00:13:12.070
this last time, actually. There's a door in it,

00:13:12.169 --> 00:13:14.929
and it's part of the main quest. You just go,

00:13:14.950 --> 00:13:16.429
you get to this place, like you always do, just

00:13:16.429 --> 00:13:18.450
deliver a package. You get to this place, and

00:13:18.450 --> 00:13:21.220
it's like... You have to enter a code to get

00:13:21.220 --> 00:13:23.399
in through the door, and you go up to it, and

00:13:23.399 --> 00:13:25.639
then you press the button until you're just expected

00:13:25.639 --> 00:13:27.240
to do it for you, but it comes up with a number

00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:31.759
thing. You're just like, I don't know. I don't

00:13:31.759 --> 00:13:35.080
know what the code is. But me knowing Kojima

00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:38.299
since I was a boy, I bet it's my date of birth.

00:13:38.740 --> 00:13:41.740
Fucking is. My date of birth was the code to

00:13:41.740 --> 00:13:43.980
the door. Your date of birth? Was the code to

00:13:43.980 --> 00:13:46.779
the door. What do you mean, your date of birth?

00:13:47.259 --> 00:13:49.019
Well, when you start the game, it asks you for

00:13:49.019 --> 00:13:50.559
your date of birth. Oh, it asks you, right. But

00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:52.799
that is like 30 hours before that. Do you know

00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:54.799
what I mean? But yeah, just me just thinking,

00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:57.919
Kojima's weird. He can't do what he did on Metal

00:13:57.919 --> 00:13:59.580
Gear Solid 1 because it isn't a box. I bought

00:13:59.580 --> 00:14:02.200
it digitally. Yeah, yeah. It's either on a package

00:14:02.200 --> 00:14:05.059
that I'm carrying, which is too obvious for Kojima.

00:14:05.820 --> 00:14:07.759
And it's a four -digit number, so I'm thinking,

00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:13.889
hmm. But then also, it does it fucking... The

00:14:13.889 --> 00:14:15.690
American way. So I put it in originally and I

00:14:15.690 --> 00:14:17.470
was like, ah. Wrong way around, yeah, yeah. Try

00:14:17.470 --> 00:14:19.750
the other way, of course. But yeah, that's the

00:14:19.750 --> 00:14:22.149
kind of genius he is, man. I can't remember what

00:14:22.149 --> 00:14:24.110
I was saying before that. What was behind the

00:14:24.110 --> 00:14:26.889
door? Can you remember? Yeah, it was just like

00:14:26.889 --> 00:14:29.669
a main character's laboratory. Yeah, yeah. But

00:14:29.669 --> 00:14:32.590
you have to put the code in. But yeah, he's just,

00:14:32.690 --> 00:14:34.950
he's a genius, mate. He's a genius. Oh yeah,

00:14:34.990 --> 00:14:37.269
that's what I was saying. So like the end, the

00:14:37.269 --> 00:14:40.909
last chapter of Death Stranding 1 is called something

00:14:40.909 --> 00:14:45.559
and then but that matters and it all makes sense

00:14:45.559 --> 00:14:47.940
in the second one, like towards the end and stuff.

00:14:47.980 --> 00:14:50.919
And you're just like, did you plan this? Or have

00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:52.580
you just, you know, then planned this around

00:14:52.580 --> 00:14:54.740
that? I don't know, man. I often think that when

00:14:54.740 --> 00:14:58.440
you make, so let's just use Death Stranding for

00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:02.500
an example. Like when you make the first one

00:15:02.500 --> 00:15:05.039
and then when you start making the second one.

00:15:05.850 --> 00:15:08.690
did you make the first one in mind knowing that

00:15:08.690 --> 00:15:10.470
you were going to make a second one so therefore

00:15:10.470 --> 00:15:13.750
built the foundations of that lore knowing that

00:15:13.750 --> 00:15:16.429
you could have a sequel to it or did you make

00:15:16.429 --> 00:15:19.950
the first one and then go oh shit yeah no yeah

00:15:19.950 --> 00:15:22.509
we can make a second one and then go oh fucking

00:15:22.509 --> 00:15:25.029
hell like what we're going to have oh wait no

00:15:25.029 --> 00:15:26.710
because remember this happened in the first one

00:15:26.710 --> 00:15:28.950
so maybe we can twist that and turn it into that

00:15:28.950 --> 00:15:30.970
and we can do this i'm always intrigued to see

00:15:30.970 --> 00:15:34.620
how they How that works. It's a bit of both,

00:15:34.700 --> 00:15:36.879
but people are going to say they foreshadowed

00:15:36.879 --> 00:15:42.419
it. Yeah. Or you're at such a level where you

00:15:42.419 --> 00:15:44.980
go, well, no, what I did is I come up with one

00:15:44.980 --> 00:15:48.159
concept, but it was too big to squeeze into one

00:15:48.159 --> 00:15:51.779
game. So we just split it, knowing that we were

00:15:51.779 --> 00:15:54.419
going to make a second one. You can always trust

00:15:54.419 --> 00:15:56.500
Kojima to come up with some crazy stuff, man.

00:15:56.639 --> 00:15:58.700
Because Cyberpunk, not Cyberpunk, sorry, because

00:15:58.700 --> 00:16:03.850
Death Stranding isn't a... It's not a law thing,

00:16:03.929 --> 00:16:06.870
is it? As in, like, there isn't... It's not a

00:16:06.870 --> 00:16:08.750
game where there's already predetermined law

00:16:08.750 --> 00:16:11.029
before the game has actually been made. No, although

00:16:11.029 --> 00:16:14.129
there is a movie, so... Coming. Coming, yeah,

00:16:14.190 --> 00:16:17.210
yeah, yeah. Is Norman Reedus going to be in that?

00:16:17.250 --> 00:16:19.289
I imagine so. He has to be. For some part, at

00:16:19.289 --> 00:16:20.590
least. Fucking surely, Jesus Christ. But just

00:16:20.590 --> 00:16:22.710
look at... Well, I'm obviously not going to say

00:16:22.710 --> 00:16:24.649
it, but the final boss fight of Death Stranding

00:16:24.649 --> 00:16:28.129
2, you're just like... Kojima, man, what's going

00:16:28.129 --> 00:16:31.019
on in your head? It's so weird. Like, there's

00:16:31.019 --> 00:16:34.139
real serious moments in that game where you're

00:16:34.139 --> 00:16:37.019
like, I don't know, you're feeling, like, emotional.

00:16:37.100 --> 00:16:40.460
You're getting a bit like, oh, man. Like a person's,

00:16:40.460 --> 00:16:42.500
like, just about to die on a table or something.

00:16:42.659 --> 00:16:44.240
And then they'll just lay there and then they'll

00:16:44.240 --> 00:16:45.559
just stick their thumb up and you'll get that

00:16:45.559 --> 00:16:47.740
like noise. And you're just like, what are you

00:16:47.740 --> 00:16:53.080
doing? Like, ba -bow. One like received. It's

00:16:53.080 --> 00:16:57.509
like, what's going on, man? So strange. But yeah,

00:16:57.549 --> 00:17:00.549
he's just a quirky guy, man. Here we go, six

00:17:00.549 --> 00:17:03.789
months ago. Hideo Kojima, genius, crazy or a

00:17:03.789 --> 00:17:06.569
mad genius? Just started playing Death Stranding

00:17:06.569 --> 00:17:08.529
and Madden. Either I'm dumb as hell or Hideo

00:17:08.529 --> 00:17:11.170
Kojima is straight up insane. Honestly, I think

00:17:11.170 --> 00:17:13.269
he's walking that fine line between madness and

00:17:13.269 --> 00:17:15.799
genius. They say every genius is a little crazy,

00:17:15.859 --> 00:17:18.200
right? The story in this game is one of the weirdest,

00:17:18.299 --> 00:17:20.720
most nonsensical things I've ever come across,

00:17:20.880 --> 00:17:23.400
and yet it's a freaking masterpiece. I don't

00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:25.160
know how he does it, but it's like watching art

00:17:25.160 --> 00:17:26.920
come to life. Anyone else feel the same, or am

00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:30.000
I just losing it? Someone said, did you play

00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:32.660
the first Metal Gear Solid, a game that can read

00:17:32.660 --> 00:17:34.559
your memory card and know what you played? From

00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:36.599
that moment on, he was playing above the others.

00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:39.559
Yeah, he was. It was weird, man. Imagine playing

00:17:39.559 --> 00:17:42.019
a game when you're... I was a kid, man. I don't

00:17:42.019 --> 00:17:44.319
know how old I was. 10, 11? Playing a game and

00:17:44.319 --> 00:17:47.519
you'd be like, I hear you like football. And

00:17:47.519 --> 00:17:51.700
you're just like, yeah. Do you like Ape Escape?

00:17:52.380 --> 00:17:55.160
Yeah. It's like all the saved games on your...

00:17:55.160 --> 00:17:58.559
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Full out. So what, did the

00:17:58.559 --> 00:18:01.299
voice actor have to read out every single possible

00:18:01.299 --> 00:18:03.920
game on a catalogue to work that one out? I imagine

00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:06.880
the PS1 had a much smaller catalogue and it probably

00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:09.380
went for the big hitters. So if it hit the big

00:18:09.380 --> 00:18:12.779
hitters that were out... But yeah, it wasn't

00:18:12.779 --> 00:18:15.799
just games. It was like if you save a lot or

00:18:15.799 --> 00:18:19.200
if you don't save a lot or you die a lot and

00:18:19.200 --> 00:18:21.559
all this sort of stuff. And then, like I say,

00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:23.319
then it's, I'll put your controller on the floor

00:18:23.319 --> 00:18:25.960
and then I'll move it with my mind and you put

00:18:25.960 --> 00:18:27.240
your controller on the floor and then he just

00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:29.059
vibrates the controller and it just goes across

00:18:29.059 --> 00:18:32.579
the floor and you're like, ah, mental. It's crazy.

00:18:32.779 --> 00:18:34.680
And like I say, you can only read your mind because

00:18:34.680 --> 00:18:37.559
you can't read your mind when you put your controller

00:18:37.559 --> 00:18:39.599
in controller port two. Who thinks of that shit?

00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:42.559
How was I supposed to know that as a kid? How

00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:45.299
do you work that one out? I don't know. I wasn't

00:18:45.299 --> 00:18:46.839
supposed to be playing the game anyway. I was

00:18:46.839 --> 00:18:48.700
obviously too young to be playing it, so I suppose

00:18:48.700 --> 00:18:53.339
that's partly the reason. But, yeah, the screen

00:18:53.339 --> 00:18:56.599
goes black. I remember he does something, Psycho

00:18:56.599 --> 00:18:59.319
Mantis, and then the screen goes completely black

00:18:59.319 --> 00:19:01.500
and it just says Hideo at the top, which obviously

00:19:01.500 --> 00:19:03.140
I didn't know meant Hideo Kojima at the time.

00:19:03.769 --> 00:19:05.609
And then that is when you're supposed to take

00:19:05.609 --> 00:19:06.549
your controller out and put it in controller

00:19:06.549 --> 00:19:08.650
port two. Otherwise, you just can't even hurt

00:19:08.650 --> 00:19:10.490
the fucker. You just fire bullets at him. He's

00:19:10.490 --> 00:19:12.009
like, I can read your mind. And he's just moving

00:19:12.009 --> 00:19:13.950
around like a maniac. You can't do nothing to

00:19:13.950 --> 00:19:16.589
him. So as soon as you put the controller in

00:19:16.589 --> 00:19:19.670
two, he's like, I can't feel you anymore. Genius.

00:19:20.109 --> 00:19:23.569
Genius. Oh, weird. But he breaks that wall, doesn't

00:19:23.569 --> 00:19:25.349
he? The fourth wall is it. He breaks it. Because

00:19:25.349 --> 00:19:27.930
you're just like, you're in my head, man. How

00:19:27.930 --> 00:19:31.349
are you doing this? You're making it real. Okay.

00:19:31.950 --> 00:19:34.269
I've been a fan of his and played nearly everything

00:19:34.269 --> 00:19:36.410
he's made. It's always been a weird ride of gameplay

00:19:36.410 --> 00:19:38.970
unlike anything else out there. Plus a certain

00:19:38.970 --> 00:19:43.750
touch of abject weirdness. Kojima. I made a game

00:19:43.750 --> 00:19:45.750
that's a literal walking simulator. You deliver

00:19:45.750 --> 00:19:48.470
vital goods over rugged terrain and you have

00:19:48.470 --> 00:19:51.190
to take care of a baby. Also Kojima. And you

00:19:51.190 --> 00:19:52.970
make grenades out of pee and poo to help you

00:19:52.970 --> 00:19:58.829
fight ghosts. Lol. Exactly. Exactly. Oh yeah,

00:19:58.869 --> 00:20:01.210
because you do have grenades that are... You're

00:20:01.210 --> 00:20:04.589
shit, aren't you? Yep. It's so weird. I don't

00:20:04.589 --> 00:20:05.849
know if you have it in the second one, to be

00:20:05.849 --> 00:20:11.109
fair. It's so weird. There's so much cool shit

00:20:11.109 --> 00:20:13.269
in the fucking second one, man. Oh, he has a

00:20:13.269 --> 00:20:18.849
book. The Creative Gene. He is a genius. He's

00:20:18.849 --> 00:20:21.430
even done a doggy move, man. He's put famous

00:20:21.430 --> 00:20:24.589
quotes from Mel B's Solid in there. I think it's

00:20:24.589 --> 00:20:27.680
Higgs. the bad guy from the first one i think

00:20:27.680 --> 00:20:30.000
he's where he's in the second one i think that's

00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:32.319
well known but he comes out and he says kept

00:20:32.319 --> 00:20:34.500
you waiting huh that's what solid snake says

00:20:34.500 --> 00:20:38.039
that's his most famous line a snake says that

00:20:38.039 --> 00:20:41.329
bro but kojima made it for konami so Who really

00:20:41.329 --> 00:20:43.470
has the right to that? I don't know, bro. A bit

00:20:43.470 --> 00:20:45.529
weird, isn't it? But yeah, there's a character

00:20:45.529 --> 00:20:48.849
in there that is just Solid Snake. He looks like

00:20:48.849 --> 00:20:51.450
him. He wears a bandana like him. He smokes like

00:20:51.450 --> 00:20:54.809
him. He's literally, if you just saw that cutscene,

00:20:54.990 --> 00:20:57.490
you would think that was Snake. I haven't looked

00:20:57.490 --> 00:20:59.589
into it, but I assume everyone else is like,

00:20:59.690 --> 00:21:03.789
yeah, that's Snake. So obviously him, but obviously

00:21:03.789 --> 00:21:06.289
with a different name and stuff. In Death Stranding,

00:21:06.390 --> 00:21:10.250
a character named Neil. Yeah, Neil Vanner. bears

00:21:10.250 --> 00:21:12.450
a strong resemblance to Solid Snake, leading

00:21:12.450 --> 00:21:16.150
to fan speculation. While not actually Solid

00:21:16.150 --> 00:21:18.390
Snake, the character's design, including a bandana,

00:21:18.450 --> 00:21:20.150
intentionally references the Metal Gear Solid

00:21:20.150 --> 00:21:22.950
protagonist. Kojima Productions' Hideo Kojima

00:21:22.950 --> 00:21:29.470
even acknowledged the resemblance with Marinelli

00:21:29.470 --> 00:21:32.910
initially believing he was playing Snake. Oh,

00:21:32.910 --> 00:21:38.420
really? Yeah, apparently. Hideo Kojima is a madman

00:21:38.420 --> 00:21:41.160
for putting Snake in Death Stranded. Can't believe

00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:43.359
that fucking conspiracy theory YouTube channel

00:21:43.359 --> 00:21:45.559
called Death Stranded in a secret Metal Gear

00:21:45.559 --> 00:21:51.039
Solid was right. Yeah, Deadass is going to be

00:21:51.039 --> 00:21:56.880
called Bone Marrow Snake. I love this. That's

00:21:56.880 --> 00:22:02.039
mental. But what... I just can't... I can't fathom

00:22:02.039 --> 00:22:05.000
a mind that's like that. especially when it comes

00:22:05.000 --> 00:22:08.380
to creating games because that must be a fucking

00:22:08.380 --> 00:22:13.240
absolute blast to be able to have that sort of

00:22:13.240 --> 00:22:16.259
funding that sort of popularity that notoriety

00:22:16.259 --> 00:22:20.740
and then have so many crazy ideas and just look

00:22:20.740 --> 00:22:25.009
at a team of people and go make it happen Wales

00:22:25.009 --> 00:22:27.109
make it happen this is what we want to do we

00:22:27.109 --> 00:22:28.809
want to freak people out and do some weird shit

00:22:28.809 --> 00:22:30.890
we've got the money let's just fucking make it

00:22:30.890 --> 00:22:33.769
he's just a master of his craft isn't he he's

00:22:33.769 --> 00:22:37.750
a pioneer and that's what happens when you make

00:22:37.750 --> 00:22:40.829
stuff of value stuff that people care about you

00:22:40.829 --> 00:22:42.910
get put up on a pedestal same as like Larry and

00:22:42.910 --> 00:22:46.369
now and Sven like the main geezer from him everyone's

00:22:46.369 --> 00:22:49.789
like he's a pioneer he's for indie games and

00:22:50.349 --> 00:22:52.269
You know, stick it to the industry and people

00:22:52.269 --> 00:22:53.890
that are just cash -grabbing and stuff. He's

00:22:53.890 --> 00:22:57.990
a man of the people. You get that from creating

00:22:57.990 --> 00:23:00.329
stuff that resonates with people, stuff that

00:23:00.329 --> 00:23:03.230
you clearly have put your heart into, and Kojima

00:23:03.230 --> 00:23:07.009
done that from many, many years ago. So he deserves

00:23:07.009 --> 00:23:09.089
it, man. And then the first one was a bit...

00:23:09.089 --> 00:23:12.470
I'm still not sure. Obviously, the director's

00:23:12.470 --> 00:23:14.890
cut, I think, was a big upstep for people. I

00:23:14.890 --> 00:23:16.529
think people really liked that compared to the

00:23:16.529 --> 00:23:19.109
first. But it's one of them, man. You let him

00:23:19.109 --> 00:23:22.230
marinate. And you're like, I get it now. I do

00:23:22.230 --> 00:23:23.769
get it. When I first played it, I was like, you're

00:23:23.769 --> 00:23:25.670
weird, man. What is this? You're trying to be

00:23:25.670 --> 00:23:28.869
too quirky. But no, no, I get it now. I get it.

00:23:28.930 --> 00:23:31.509
I see where he's going with it and deserves all

00:23:31.509 --> 00:23:33.670
the applause he's getting, to be honest. Fair

00:23:33.670 --> 00:23:37.549
play. Well done, Hideo. Round of applause. I

00:23:37.549 --> 00:23:41.210
doffed my hat. So that's done then? That's done.

00:23:41.589 --> 00:23:44.089
That's Death Stranding ticked off the list. Yes,

00:23:44.210 --> 00:23:47.849
Death Stranding is ticked off the list. I made

00:23:47.849 --> 00:23:52.539
it to... diamond rank in rematch oh yeah cool

00:23:52.539 --> 00:23:55.099
cool yeah did that last night funnily enough

00:23:55.099 --> 00:23:59.839
yeah promoted to one division from Masters which

00:23:59.839 --> 00:24:02.740
is top the top division I've never reached anything

00:24:02.740 --> 00:24:06.680
of this height in any game in my life so yeah

00:24:06.680 --> 00:24:10.099
I'm pretty proud of myself just saying there's

00:24:10.099 --> 00:24:12.259
nothing more to say than that that's it you're

00:24:12.259 --> 00:24:15.740
just killing the rank scene yep what else have

00:24:15.740 --> 00:24:19.690
I done I downloaded Dark Tide Sweaty. Oh, yeah.

00:24:20.089 --> 00:24:21.950
Yep, got that. Have you played any of it? I've

00:24:21.950 --> 00:24:23.410
played a little bit of it, not much. What do

00:24:23.410 --> 00:24:25.789
you think so far? Yeah, it's good. I've no idea

00:24:25.789 --> 00:24:27.990
what I'm doing. Just killing shit. Yeah, I'm

00:24:27.990 --> 00:24:30.150
not really a horde shooting guy, so I haven't

00:24:30.150 --> 00:24:31.690
really played like the Left 4 Dead and stuff,

00:24:31.829 --> 00:24:35.630
so it's all new to me. Just fucking kill stuff.

00:24:35.730 --> 00:24:37.609
Anything comes at you, you just kill it and then

00:24:37.609 --> 00:24:39.730
you kill it again. Yeah, but I wasn't sure if

00:24:39.730 --> 00:24:41.849
it was friendly fire and stuff and I don't know

00:24:41.849 --> 00:24:45.319
if I was hitting my own teammates at times. Obviously,

00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:47.259
there's an armory and this and that and this

00:24:47.259 --> 00:24:49.579
and that. It's just a lot to take in. So, yeah,

00:24:49.660 --> 00:24:52.579
I'm slowly working my way through that. And obviously,

00:24:52.640 --> 00:24:53.839
a lot of people already know what they're doing.

00:24:53.920 --> 00:24:55.559
So, if you drop in a mission and people know,

00:24:55.720 --> 00:24:59.059
they're just like, vroom. The first time I died,

00:24:59.279 --> 00:25:02.039
they all jumped off this thing onto something

00:25:02.039 --> 00:25:03.799
else. I was obviously lagging behind because

00:25:03.799 --> 00:25:06.859
I'm slow. And, yeah, I didn't jump far enough

00:25:06.859 --> 00:25:08.960
and I just fell to my death. It's embarrassing.

00:25:09.630 --> 00:25:11.970
and then that makes you get captured and then

00:25:11.970 --> 00:25:13.869
they have to rescue you, which is even more embarrassing.

00:25:13.869 --> 00:25:15.549
Even more, yeah. You go, oh, fuck it. I'm the

00:25:15.549 --> 00:25:17.289
useless person now. They're going to take time

00:25:17.289 --> 00:25:20.650
out of their thing to save me. Yeah, yeah. No,

00:25:20.869 --> 00:25:23.250
it's a good game, though. I like it. That's why

00:25:23.250 --> 00:25:26.109
I worry about jumping back into Helldivers 2

00:25:26.109 --> 00:25:29.210
because of how much more progressed everyone

00:25:29.210 --> 00:25:31.210
else is and you think, oh, fuck it. I've got

00:25:31.210 --> 00:25:32.930
to grind it back out. In reality, it doesn't

00:25:32.930 --> 00:25:36.829
matter, does it? Because I was playing a rematch

00:25:36.829 --> 00:25:39.680
last night. And I was having a stonking game.

00:25:39.799 --> 00:25:42.799
I mean, stinky, stinky. Nothing was going right

00:25:42.799 --> 00:25:44.440
for me, man. My controller was broken, to be

00:25:44.440 --> 00:25:46.799
fair. I was getting a new controller. So I'm

00:25:46.799 --> 00:25:48.440
using an old controller that was already broken,

00:25:48.480 --> 00:25:50.119
but it's less broken than my newer one. I don't

00:25:50.119 --> 00:25:51.599
know why it keeps happening. Maybe I need to

00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:53.640
just take it apart. What's wrong with it? It

00:25:53.640 --> 00:25:56.359
just fucking keeps going right. It's really annoying.

00:25:56.680 --> 00:25:59.440
It's got stick drift. Yeah, no, but like, as

00:25:59.440 --> 00:26:03.259
if it's constant. Stick drift sometimes. sometimes

00:26:03.259 --> 00:26:05.640
happens but this is just constant I don't know

00:26:05.640 --> 00:26:07.099
maybe I need to take it apart and clean it but

00:26:07.099 --> 00:26:09.359
nevertheless I'm using a slightly less broken

00:26:09.359 --> 00:26:14.059
controller and yeah that's not the excuse though

00:26:14.059 --> 00:26:16.359
because I was just shit having a stinky game

00:26:16.359 --> 00:26:18.299
nothing was going right I couldn't put a pass

00:26:18.299 --> 00:26:20.660
together and I thought to myself if someone comes

00:26:20.660 --> 00:26:24.279
on the mic in a minute and goes like you're shit

00:26:24.279 --> 00:26:27.259
I'm going to unmute myself and say yeah I'm having

00:26:27.259 --> 00:26:29.759
a really bad game man sorry what can you say

00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:31.930
to that? I've literally just owned up. I'm having

00:26:31.930 --> 00:26:34.829
a stinky, stinky game. Where most people are

00:26:34.829 --> 00:26:36.670
like, yeah, fuck you, man. You're fucking shit

00:26:36.670 --> 00:26:39.009
too. But yeah, I was just going to be like, no,

00:26:39.109 --> 00:26:42.269
I've had a shit game. Sorry. And see what it

00:26:42.269 --> 00:26:45.009
sounds like. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Cool. No worries.

00:26:45.849 --> 00:26:47.490
Do you reckon that's the response you would have

00:26:47.490 --> 00:26:48.869
gotten? No, no, no, I doubt it. Everyone would

00:26:48.869 --> 00:26:50.650
have kicked off. I just wanted to see what someone

00:26:50.650 --> 00:26:52.430
would say, but I was expecting... If you're playing

00:26:52.430 --> 00:26:54.809
a ranked game and you go, mate, you're playing

00:26:54.809 --> 00:26:56.710
fucking terribly. Can you sort it out? And they

00:26:56.710 --> 00:26:59.410
go, oh, sorry, mate. I'm just having a bad game.

00:26:59.740 --> 00:27:03.200
Get out the fuck... Leave then. Leave. It's even

00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:05.240
worse. What, put a five -man team down to a four

00:27:05.240 --> 00:27:07.200
-man team? Leave. I'd rather you leave. Let me

00:27:07.200 --> 00:27:12.160
deal with it. You're fucking it up. Yeah. This

00:27:12.160 --> 00:27:17.299
time I'm just having a bad game, man. But I was,

00:27:17.299 --> 00:27:19.059
though. I'm normally the one that ends with the

00:27:19.059 --> 00:27:22.460
most points, man. Can't help it. I sent you a

00:27:22.460 --> 00:27:23.759
picture the other day how much I carried that

00:27:23.759 --> 00:27:25.980
team. Yeah, yeah, yeah. More than double anyone

00:27:25.980 --> 00:27:29.089
else's score on both teams. Just... I'm just

00:27:29.089 --> 00:27:32.829
that guy, bro. I'm not selfish. Fair enough.

00:27:33.009 --> 00:27:35.910
So we're still firmly in the space scene, which

00:27:35.910 --> 00:27:39.369
is good. I'm playing Rogue Trader as well, which

00:27:39.369 --> 00:27:43.390
is the Warhammer Baldur's Gate version, basically.

00:27:43.529 --> 00:27:46.809
Yeah. I put 20 hours into it originally, and

00:27:46.809 --> 00:27:48.009
then obviously I have no idea where I was. You

00:27:48.009 --> 00:27:49.630
keep mentioning Rogue Trader. I don't actually

00:27:49.630 --> 00:27:51.630
know what the fuck it is. Let's just think of

00:27:51.630 --> 00:27:56.470
Baldur's Gate, but Warhammer. Warhammer 40 ,000,

00:27:56.509 --> 00:28:00.079
Rogue Trader. Oh, yeah. Yeah, so I had 20 hours

00:28:00.079 --> 00:28:02.900
in it originally, and then... Made by Alcat Games.

00:28:03.140 --> 00:28:06.000
Yep, the goats. And then I didn't know where

00:28:06.000 --> 00:28:07.660
I was or what I was doing, obviously, so I was

00:28:07.660 --> 00:28:09.460
like, fuck it. So I started it again. Oh, it

00:28:09.460 --> 00:28:12.619
came out in 2023? Yeah. I thought this was an

00:28:12.619 --> 00:28:17.779
old game. No, they made Wrath of the Righteous,

00:28:17.799 --> 00:28:21.240
King of Pathfinder, or, yeah, Pathfinder, which

00:28:21.240 --> 00:28:23.279
is another Baldur's Gate kind of game, but now

00:28:23.279 --> 00:28:26.380
they make fantasy games. Very positive reviews.

00:28:26.900 --> 00:28:29.769
Yeah, people love it. Says, I don't usually write

00:28:29.769 --> 00:28:33.230
long reviews for games, but this one 100 % deserves

00:28:33.230 --> 00:28:36.309
it. How long is that review? Can fuck right off.

00:28:36.890 --> 00:28:38.970
This game quickly became one of my favourite

00:28:38.970 --> 00:28:42.250
RPGs after Pathfinder. Being new to Warhammer

00:28:42.250 --> 00:28:44.289
40 ,000 Universe, I found the game to be a great

00:28:44.289 --> 00:28:47.849
experience. Tactical asymmetric combat took a

00:28:47.849 --> 00:28:49.690
bit to get used to, but once I did, I really

00:28:49.690 --> 00:28:54.250
enjoyed it. I'm having a great time with that.

00:28:55.610 --> 00:28:58.670
I started watching some Star Wars series that

00:28:58.670 --> 00:29:01.269
came out that I hadn't watched. Which ones? Because

00:29:01.269 --> 00:29:05.089
it wasn't a sci -fi thing. Andor. Oh, Daryl's

00:29:05.089 --> 00:29:07.130
watched Andor. Yeah, I watched the first series

00:29:07.130 --> 00:29:09.130
before, but I haven't seen the second. Yeah,

00:29:09.130 --> 00:29:11.309
when he was watching it, he kept asking, he was

00:29:11.309 --> 00:29:13.009
like, have any of you seen Andor? None of us

00:29:13.009 --> 00:29:15.369
watch it, man. I'm sorry, but I could tell that

00:29:15.369 --> 00:29:17.029
he was just itching to fucking talk about it,

00:29:17.089 --> 00:29:19.150
but he's got no one to talk to it. Yeah, I'm

00:29:19.150 --> 00:29:21.009
watching the second season at the moment, so

00:29:21.009 --> 00:29:24.690
I'm enjoying that. I finished Alien. oh yeah

00:29:24.690 --> 00:29:26.670
that saga's done now is it done the alien saga

00:29:26.670 --> 00:29:29.470
but yeah but then lo and behold this is just

00:29:29.470 --> 00:29:32.710
so how fortunate am I go on just scrolling through

00:29:32.710 --> 00:29:35.250
YouTube the other day up pops fucking alien the

00:29:35.250 --> 00:29:40.269
TV series coming out yes what timing is that

00:29:40.269 --> 00:29:45.670
fucking fantastic two episodes dropping on the

00:29:45.670 --> 00:29:49.380
same day I think it's called alien At Earth or

00:29:49.380 --> 00:29:51.140
on Earth? I can't remember what the fuck it is.

00:29:51.140 --> 00:29:53.539
Alien Earth. Alien Earth, yeah. Alien Earth,

00:29:53.599 --> 00:29:56.759
when a mysterious space vessel crash lands on

00:29:56.759 --> 00:30:00.119
Earth, Wendy and a ragtag group of tactical soldiers

00:30:00.119 --> 00:30:02.259
make a fateful discovery that puts them face

00:30:02.259 --> 00:30:05.099
to face with the planet's greatest threat. 12th

00:30:05.099 --> 00:30:07.559
of August is when the first episode comes out,

00:30:07.619 --> 00:30:10.359
but that's in the USA. Comes out on the 13th

00:30:10.359 --> 00:30:12.799
in the UK. It's always a day after. It's so fucking

00:30:12.799 --> 00:30:17.339
annoying. Who's the cast on that then? Anyone?

00:30:18.289 --> 00:30:21.069
I'm terrible with people, to be fair, so this

00:30:21.069 --> 00:30:23.690
is going to be a bit of a pointless... I won't

00:30:23.690 --> 00:30:26.430
bother looking at that. So, yeah, I'm very lucky.

00:30:26.529 --> 00:30:30.769
I'm feeling very blessed right now. Playing a

00:30:30.769 --> 00:30:33.289
couple of little mobile games, Warhammer Tacticus

00:30:33.289 --> 00:30:38.089
again. I was looking at... I downloaded Diablo

00:30:38.089 --> 00:30:41.329
Immortal, again, on my phone, just to fuck around

00:30:41.329 --> 00:30:43.650
with, because I see something come up with the

00:30:43.650 --> 00:30:48.720
Druid. I swear The Druid was in it from the get

00:30:48.720 --> 00:30:52.039
-go anyway. Don't ask me. I played about 15 seconds

00:30:52.039 --> 00:30:55.079
of that game. Yeah, I swear The Druid, but let's

00:30:55.079 --> 00:30:56.779
assume that it wasn't because this trailer was

00:30:56.779 --> 00:31:01.259
about a new class being The Druid. And yeah,

00:31:01.299 --> 00:31:04.240
you can turn into a werewolf and a deer and all

00:31:04.240 --> 00:31:06.359
this other shit and bounce around and it was

00:31:06.359 --> 00:31:08.240
quite cool. So I'll give that a download. But

00:31:08.240 --> 00:31:11.700
I was actually looking through the Play Store

00:31:11.700 --> 00:31:15.349
catalogue trying to find... Decent games because

00:31:15.349 --> 00:31:17.630
I have quite a lot of points. I've got like 15

00:31:17.630 --> 00:31:21.410
quid sat on Play Store, which for mobile game

00:31:21.410 --> 00:31:23.490
prices, that's quite a lot of dough that you

00:31:23.490 --> 00:31:24.910
can spend to get some fucking... How have you

00:31:24.910 --> 00:31:28.730
got 15 quid? Because I pay for... Picture this.

00:31:29.509 --> 00:31:31.410
It's like a quid a week, something like that.

00:31:31.549 --> 00:31:34.309
So just over the... However long I've had it.

00:31:34.430 --> 00:31:35.970
Do you want to tap my play points? I'll tap your

00:31:35.970 --> 00:31:39.470
play points. I've only ever got... Seven. Why

00:31:39.470 --> 00:31:42.049
have you got... Why was yours gold? Five. Because

00:31:42.049 --> 00:31:45.740
I'm gold. Yeah? Why are you gold? Let me do mine.

00:31:47.160 --> 00:31:50.740
And yeah, I couldn't actually find anything,

00:31:50.940 --> 00:31:56.019
Prince, if I'm honest. One thing that was meant

00:31:56.019 --> 00:31:59.119
to be, which I was because... Fucking hell. If

00:31:59.119 --> 00:32:03.180
you want a game that is going to... You're going

00:32:03.180 --> 00:32:08.460
to play at infinitum. Yeah. Then I recommend

00:32:08.460 --> 00:32:12.039
Slay the Spire. Yeah, I see a lot of Slay the

00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:14.680
Spire. I have Slay the Spire. Yeah. Let's have

00:32:14.680 --> 00:32:18.619
a look. Because Once Human is obviously on there,

00:32:18.700 --> 00:32:20.900
and that seemed quite fun, but also seemed too

00:32:20.900 --> 00:32:23.660
finicky for me to be able to play it on mobile.

00:32:26.380 --> 00:32:29.400
I've played this for 80 hours on my phone. My

00:32:29.400 --> 00:32:33.720
playtime is 79 hours. On your phone? What is

00:32:33.720 --> 00:32:37.490
it? It's a card game, but it's a... So, it's

00:32:37.490 --> 00:32:39.390
a roguelite. You pick your character, you go

00:32:39.390 --> 00:32:42.809
in, and then you start. There's a weird whale

00:32:42.809 --> 00:32:45.190
thing. Yeah, and then this is your path to the

00:32:45.190 --> 00:32:47.069
boss. Yeah. It's just first floor. You click

00:32:47.069 --> 00:32:48.890
what path you want. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then

00:32:48.890 --> 00:32:51.230
this is your deck. So, for example, they're going

00:32:51.230 --> 00:32:52.970
to do eight damage. He's going to do eight damage.

00:32:53.650 --> 00:32:57.910
I can strike one. So, I need to defend. I need

00:32:57.910 --> 00:32:59.890
to defend. But then, obviously, you might get

00:32:59.890 --> 00:33:01.549
bricked on your drawers and stuff. Yeah, yeah,

00:33:01.549 --> 00:33:03.640
yeah. But then you can get... You can get...

00:33:03.640 --> 00:33:06.099
It's not free, is it, Slay the Spy? You can get

00:33:06.099 --> 00:33:08.240
relics, you can upgrade your cards and stuff,

00:33:08.319 --> 00:33:09.859
but it's all like... It's a roguelite, so, you

00:33:09.859 --> 00:33:12.039
know, once your run's done, it's done. But you're

00:33:12.039 --> 00:33:14.700
unlocking stuff. Yes, it's not free, no. Would

00:33:14.700 --> 00:33:17.759
you like to press my silver points? Oh, why's

00:33:17.759 --> 00:33:20.480
your silver? I don't know. You've got about the

00:33:20.480 --> 00:33:22.839
same as me, mate. Oh, four points. Fucking hell,

00:33:22.859 --> 00:33:25.740
pointless. Slay the Spy, yeah? See what you did

00:33:25.740 --> 00:33:28.240
there? Pointless. Ah, did you understand that?

00:33:28.599 --> 00:33:32.910
I wonder what... I wonder what... I want all

00:33:32.910 --> 00:33:35.430
the reviews are saying on Slay the Spire. Slay

00:33:35.430 --> 00:33:37.230
the Spire is one of the goat games, man. 20 quid,

00:33:37.230 --> 00:33:40.109
yeah? On Steam? Yeah. Fuck, you know, I've done

00:33:40.109 --> 00:33:46.750
it again. I'm sorry. I have a league of friends

00:33:46.750 --> 00:33:48.710
that adore the base game of Slay the Spire and

00:33:48.710 --> 00:33:50.509
I will give plenty of credit where credit is

00:33:50.509 --> 00:33:53.210
due. The bones of this game are what earns that

00:33:53.210 --> 00:33:57.829
overwhelmingly positive rating. It's the... Rogue

00:33:57.829 --> 00:33:59.950
like deck builders practically it practically

00:33:59.950 --> 00:34:03.170
started the genre and to make that kind of ripple

00:34:03.170 --> 00:34:05.289
in the ocean You need something unique and addicting

00:34:07.320 --> 00:34:09.679
Yeah. It's great because you can have a run.

00:34:09.980 --> 00:34:12.400
If you do a run to completion, you're probably

00:34:12.400 --> 00:34:14.679
looking at least an hour. But you can stop at

00:34:14.679 --> 00:34:16.300
any time and carry on. You can just save and

00:34:16.300 --> 00:34:18.780
continue where you was. Love this game. Spent

00:34:18.780 --> 00:34:20.719
hundreds of hours on my Switch and will spend

00:34:20.719 --> 00:34:23.500
many more here, especially when Slay the Spire

00:34:23.500 --> 00:34:26.639
2 comes out. Highly recommend. Can't wait for

00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:28.300
that. That's just on my phone as well. I've also

00:34:28.300 --> 00:34:30.280
got it on PlayStation. Which is where I originally

00:34:30.280 --> 00:34:31.719
had it. Oh, where you got Slay the Spire on your

00:34:31.719 --> 00:34:33.460
PlayStation. I originally had it on PlayStation.

00:34:33.800 --> 00:34:35.300
And then I didn't realise it was on the phone.

00:34:35.420 --> 00:34:36.880
And then when I found out it was on the phone,

00:34:36.920 --> 00:34:39.639
I was like, abso -fucking -lutely, Bob. Yeah.

00:34:39.920 --> 00:34:41.940
I remember where I bought it as well. I was at

00:34:41.940 --> 00:34:44.900
the hospital waiting for a scan of one of my

00:34:44.900 --> 00:34:48.119
children. before they were born. And I bought

00:34:48.119 --> 00:34:49.519
it while we were waiting. And you thought, slow

00:34:49.519 --> 00:34:51.239
the spire. I think it was only a fiver or so

00:34:51.239 --> 00:34:53.619
and it weren't a lot. It's just fucking, I'm

00:34:53.619 --> 00:34:56.219
sorry, even if it was fucking 30 quid, 40 quid,

00:34:56.219 --> 00:34:59.019
I put fucking 80 hours into it on my mobile device.

00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:01.139
I don't know any games I've put that amount of

00:35:01.139 --> 00:35:03.460
time in in the history of the man. How much do

00:35:03.460 --> 00:35:09.099
they want on the old store? They want eight pound,

00:35:09.219 --> 00:35:13.480
no, yeah, eight pounds and 99 pence. It runs

00:35:13.480 --> 00:35:16.420
perfectly. It's got all the different... I still

00:35:16.420 --> 00:35:18.420
haven't unlocked everything in there. I'm trying

00:35:18.420 --> 00:35:21.519
to get the Hunter to level 20 Ascension before

00:35:21.519 --> 00:35:23.800
Slay the Spy 2 comes out. That's my dream. That's

00:35:23.800 --> 00:35:27.239
my goal. So every time you win a run with a character,

00:35:27.360 --> 00:35:30.619
you can then do an Ascension. So it starts at

00:35:30.619 --> 00:35:33.059
zero, nothing. You win a run, you can then put

00:35:33.059 --> 00:35:36.420
them to Ascension 1, which adds a modifier to

00:35:36.420 --> 00:35:38.139
make it harder. So the bosses drop less gold

00:35:38.139 --> 00:35:40.739
or... I'm at the point where I'm at Ascension

00:35:40.739 --> 00:35:43.500
13, 14, so I always start with a curse in my

00:35:43.500 --> 00:35:45.579
deck, and I don't get that much gold from this,

00:35:45.679 --> 00:35:48.760
and the fucking enemies have more elf, and it's

00:35:48.760 --> 00:35:51.079
just hard. What's the point of it then? What

00:35:51.079 --> 00:35:53.699
do you mean? The Ascension thing. Just to make

00:35:53.699 --> 00:35:55.739
it harder. Just to make it harder. If you reach

00:35:55.739 --> 00:35:57.840
Ascension 20 with a character and you do it,

00:35:58.000 --> 00:36:00.440
then you've basically completed it with that

00:36:00.440 --> 00:36:02.780
character. Yeah. That's the goal. And the hunter's

00:36:02.780 --> 00:36:04.619
my favourite character, so I'm trying to do it,

00:36:04.639 --> 00:36:07.260
or the huntress, should I say. Trying to do it

00:36:07.260 --> 00:36:10.519
with, yeah, get to Ascension 20 before Star Spy

00:36:10.519 --> 00:36:12.320
2 comes out. That's a lot of time to throw in

00:36:12.320 --> 00:36:14.139
a mobile game. 80 hours. That's what I mean.

00:36:14.139 --> 00:36:16.579
And how often do I talk about it? Never. Yeah,

00:36:16.619 --> 00:36:18.119
you've never spoken about it. It's just a game

00:36:18.119 --> 00:36:20.679
I just bang out and play. Yeah, you just jump

00:36:20.679 --> 00:36:23.900
on it and away we go. 80 hours. Yeah, because

00:36:23.900 --> 00:36:27.340
I've seen it pop up quite a lot, and whenever

00:36:27.340 --> 00:36:31.480
I've looked at it, it's typical me. I've seen

00:36:31.480 --> 00:36:34.219
the graphics and thought, this isn't for me.

00:36:34.380 --> 00:36:36.409
Yeah, it's fair enough. It's not for everyone.

00:36:36.610 --> 00:36:40.190
But I also believe that's just me being a bit

00:36:40.190 --> 00:36:43.110
of a whore. What it reminds me of is... Do you

00:36:43.110 --> 00:36:45.989
ever remember Adventure Quest? You might not,

00:36:46.050 --> 00:36:49.190
to be fair. You aren't from that era of mini

00:36:49.190 --> 00:36:52.070
-clip and stuff, were you? A little bit, right

00:36:52.070 --> 00:36:58.170
at the end. I've done it again! If you're wondering

00:36:58.170 --> 00:37:00.130
what I mean, everyone, you won't be able to hear

00:37:00.130 --> 00:37:02.349
it, but when I go on Steam, when the trailers

00:37:02.349 --> 00:37:05.340
play on a game... it plays through fucking full

00:37:05.340 --> 00:37:08.599
blast into our into our ears does it not do it

00:37:08.599 --> 00:37:11.039
for them no no they won't they won't hear any

00:37:11.039 --> 00:37:15.079
of that oh so they just hear shouting yeah yeah

00:37:15.079 --> 00:37:17.480
yeah it doesn't record for them they just fucking

00:37:17.480 --> 00:37:20.280
i think we're having a nightmare oh maybe i'll

00:37:20.280 --> 00:37:22.130
have maybe i'll have a look at them because I'll

00:37:22.130 --> 00:37:23.769
watch some videos, yeah, definitely first. Yeah,

00:37:23.769 --> 00:37:24.949
because it's one of those ones where I've got

00:37:24.949 --> 00:37:29.150
the money set. Because I bought Bellatro through

00:37:29.150 --> 00:37:30.869
the Play Store on my phone and it cost me nothing.

00:37:31.050 --> 00:37:32.570
Yeah, you liked Bellatro, didn't you? Bellatro

00:37:32.570 --> 00:37:33.989
was fun, man. I really liked it. Yeah, I think

00:37:33.989 --> 00:37:36.389
you liked So Spiding, so I wasn't sure. But yeah,

00:37:36.449 --> 00:37:38.750
you liked Bellatro. It's the same as that, but

00:37:38.750 --> 00:37:40.909
with weapons and characters. Yeah, because my

00:37:40.909 --> 00:37:42.730
problem with... Well, it wasn't even really a

00:37:42.730 --> 00:37:47.710
problem with that, to be fair. It was I didn't

00:37:47.710 --> 00:37:50.699
unlock all of the decks, but... To the point

00:37:50.699 --> 00:37:54.460
where I'd got with Bellagio was I did a run where

00:37:54.460 --> 00:38:00.199
it wasn't infinite, but it was heading towards

00:38:00.199 --> 00:38:03.260
an infinite run. So for me, it was kind of like

00:38:03.260 --> 00:38:05.199
where I've spoken to you about it before. It's

00:38:05.199 --> 00:38:07.300
like a battle royale. Once you get the win, I'm

00:38:07.300 --> 00:38:09.900
not fucking interested. I've done my bit as far

00:38:09.900 --> 00:38:12.940
as I'm concerned. So it kind of felt like that

00:38:12.940 --> 00:38:15.440
where I was constantly chasing and chasing and

00:38:15.440 --> 00:38:17.880
chasing to build this really cool deck and have

00:38:17.880 --> 00:38:20.440
this cool shit. And then I did that. And I was

00:38:20.440 --> 00:38:22.480
like, oh, that's great. How fun is this? And

00:38:22.480 --> 00:38:25.139
then all the fun went away because I was like,

00:38:25.159 --> 00:38:27.840
I've done it. Everything's gone. Yeah. I was

00:38:27.840 --> 00:38:31.019
like, what is it? Cause obviously everyone got

00:38:31.019 --> 00:38:33.179
real sweaty with that and then deck building

00:38:33.179 --> 00:38:34.619
and shit like that. And people are like, you

00:38:34.619 --> 00:38:37.000
want this and to do this and like, basically

00:38:37.000 --> 00:38:39.739
this is your outlay for the best deck that you

00:38:39.739 --> 00:38:43.460
can possibly get. And I feel like once you start

00:38:43.460 --> 00:38:46.099
following shit like that, it's like, what's the

00:38:46.099 --> 00:38:49.199
fucking point? It's the thing is, Similar to

00:38:49.199 --> 00:38:53.099
Blatch, I suppose. You're at the mercy of the

00:38:53.099 --> 00:38:55.920
RNG gods, isn't you? Yeah, yeah. What shows up

00:38:55.920 --> 00:38:57.340
in the shop? What do you get out of your treasure

00:38:57.340 --> 00:38:59.500
chests? What relics are you getting? What card

00:38:59.500 --> 00:39:02.340
choices are you taking? What synergises? This

00:39:02.340 --> 00:39:04.079
card that I've just... I've got a choice of three

00:39:04.079 --> 00:39:06.699
cards. One, every time I deal weak to a damage,

00:39:06.780 --> 00:39:08.599
it lets me draw a card. A card draws great in

00:39:08.599 --> 00:39:11.719
any game, obviously. This relic lets me put weak

00:39:11.719 --> 00:39:13.940
on enemies as soon as I join a fight. They synergise.

00:39:14.179 --> 00:39:15.760
That's great. I'll pick that card. You know,

00:39:15.800 --> 00:39:17.679
it's just... Getting your little monkey brain.

00:39:17.760 --> 00:39:19.800
Yeah, yeah. It's great. As I say, I'd definitely

00:39:19.800 --> 00:39:21.480
watch videos first, but if you like Bellatro,

00:39:21.699 --> 00:39:24.380
I don't see a world in which you can't like Slay

00:39:24.380 --> 00:39:26.139
the Spire, because Slay the Spire birthed this

00:39:26.139 --> 00:39:28.440
genre in its entirety, and it's still the best.

00:39:28.820 --> 00:39:31.480
I love Bellatro, but when I'm playing it, I'm

00:39:31.480 --> 00:39:33.199
thinking, I could be playing Slay the Spire,

00:39:33.199 --> 00:39:35.980
though. Yeah, yeah, I'll have it, because there's

00:39:35.980 --> 00:39:38.579
been multiple times in the last couple of weeks

00:39:38.579 --> 00:39:40.960
where I've sat there and thought, if only I had

00:39:40.960 --> 00:39:44.320
something on my phone just to fuck around with.

00:39:44.869 --> 00:39:46.869
Rather than just doom scrolling Instagram. I

00:39:46.869 --> 00:39:48.809
don't do that anymore. That's the best thing

00:39:48.809 --> 00:39:51.730
about it is that I can play it on my lunch break.

00:39:51.809 --> 00:39:53.889
I can play it for an hour. I won't finish a run

00:39:53.889 --> 00:39:56.289
or might do. Might get to the end. I don't know.

00:39:56.309 --> 00:39:58.170
I'll probably just die. But if I am and I've

00:39:58.170 --> 00:40:00.530
got to do something, I'll just save it and leave.

00:40:00.630 --> 00:40:02.030
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I'll carry on. Problem

00:40:02.030 --> 00:40:03.429
is you carry on later but I can't remember what

00:40:03.429 --> 00:40:04.730
cards I have. I have to look through my deck

00:40:04.730 --> 00:40:06.190
and be like, oh yeah, I was doing that and that

00:40:06.190 --> 00:40:08.349
and that. But yeah, there's no blueprint to the

00:40:08.349 --> 00:40:10.110
game. You just play it and you pick the cards

00:40:10.110 --> 00:40:11.769
that you like and if they synergise with these

00:40:11.769 --> 00:40:14.829
relics and it's just... great fantastic game

00:40:14.829 --> 00:40:18.849
not for everyone I have downloaded two other

00:40:18.849 --> 00:40:22.190
games they're still on my phone screen so I'll

00:40:22.190 --> 00:40:30.630
let you see them oh what what what do you mean

00:40:30.630 --> 00:40:36.099
them too yeah what Star Wars Outlaws yeah Oh,

00:40:36.159 --> 00:40:38.139
sorry. I got really confused for a minute because

00:40:38.139 --> 00:40:39.800
I thought you meant you downloaded them onto

00:40:39.800 --> 00:40:41.760
your phone. Oh, no. And I was like, how the fuck

00:40:41.760 --> 00:40:43.440
have you got Outlaws on your phone? So what...

00:40:43.440 --> 00:40:47.659
What's the... Warhammer 40 ,000... Bolt gun.

00:40:47.840 --> 00:40:51.739
Bolt gun. What's that? It's like... It was on

00:40:51.739 --> 00:40:53.320
PlayStation Plus. I actually had it on my wish

00:40:53.320 --> 00:40:56.940
list for a long time. I'm trying to load up a

00:40:56.940 --> 00:40:59.079
picture of it. It's just like a... It's like

00:40:59.079 --> 00:41:01.619
a first -person shooter but in like a cartoony

00:41:01.619 --> 00:41:07.679
kind of thing. But with gruesome gore. Outlaws.

00:41:07.679 --> 00:41:09.579
Yeah, Outlaws. I haven't downloaded the game.

00:41:09.639 --> 00:41:11.579
That's actually the demo. I played the demo.

00:41:11.920 --> 00:41:15.159
Did you? Yeah. Yeah, I played all the demo. What

00:41:15.159 --> 00:41:17.719
does it do? Drop you in a section or at the beginning?

00:41:18.179 --> 00:41:20.679
It doesn't drop you at the beginning, I don't

00:41:20.679 --> 00:41:23.940
think. It sort of puts you in... What does it

00:41:23.940 --> 00:41:25.539
put you in? No, I don't think it does put you

00:41:25.539 --> 00:41:30.050
in the beginning. I know, no, I think it does.

00:41:30.210 --> 00:41:32.190
I hope so, because I like games where you can

00:41:32.190 --> 00:41:34.250
do that and then buy the game and then you just

00:41:34.250 --> 00:41:36.070
carry on from where you were. And as far as I

00:41:36.070 --> 00:41:41.150
remember, it's a case of you get two hours. I

00:41:41.150 --> 00:41:43.449
think you get the set missions that you can do

00:41:43.449 --> 00:41:47.769
and then you get two hours. So obviously you

00:41:47.769 --> 00:41:50.929
can't just keep continuing, but you get a certain

00:41:50.929 --> 00:41:55.210
amount, two hours worth of time, and you carry

00:41:55.210 --> 00:42:00.239
on playing. It wasn't my cup of tea. Star Wars,

00:42:00.300 --> 00:42:02.019
though, innit? I won't lie to you. Yeah, it wasn't

00:42:02.019 --> 00:42:06.159
my cup of tea. I feel like just those types of

00:42:06.159 --> 00:42:10.199
games, I say those types. You know those action

00:42:10.199 --> 00:42:13.380
-adventure types of games? For some reason, it

00:42:13.380 --> 00:42:17.239
just wasn't interesting me at all. I don't know

00:42:17.239 --> 00:42:18.820
whether that's because I knew it was a demo,

00:42:18.900 --> 00:42:22.199
I wasn't financially invested into it. That does

00:42:22.199 --> 00:42:24.480
make a difference, you know? It does to me as

00:42:24.480 --> 00:42:26.880
well. Yeah. if i'm if i haven't if i'm playing

00:42:26.880 --> 00:42:30.199
a demo i care a lot less about the game i'm playing

00:42:30.199 --> 00:42:33.480
yeah for some reason yeah weird and i i sort

00:42:33.480 --> 00:42:39.559
of i wasn't that's the washing machine but it

00:42:39.559 --> 00:42:49.409
is um yeah yeah i liked it I didn't want to spend

00:42:49.409 --> 00:42:51.670
full price on it, if I'm honest. Yeah, but the

00:42:51.670 --> 00:42:54.829
thing I've got over you is that I'm a Star Wars

00:42:54.829 --> 00:42:57.929
nerd, so any little bit, I'll be like, oh, that's

00:42:57.929 --> 00:43:00.849
the inside of a Star Destroyer. Is that because

00:43:00.849 --> 00:43:04.570
you're in your space world at the moment? Oh,

00:43:04.570 --> 00:43:05.730
yeah, yeah. Because obviously you don't like

00:43:05.730 --> 00:43:08.630
the idea of playing something like Outlaws. Well,

00:43:08.730 --> 00:43:11.030
most fucking Star Wars fans didn't like the idea

00:43:11.030 --> 00:43:13.670
of playing Star Wars Outlaws. Yeah, I mean...

00:43:14.400 --> 00:43:16.760
It's a demo, right? So I haven't got any financial

00:43:16.760 --> 00:43:19.820
investment. No, yeah, yeah. So I'll try it. And

00:43:19.820 --> 00:43:21.659
if it's something that I want, I want to like

00:43:21.659 --> 00:43:24.820
it. Can I ask, did you struggle to find the demo?

00:43:26.820 --> 00:43:29.219
Yeah, because I wasn't looking for it. I was

00:43:29.219 --> 00:43:31.320
just looking at the game. And I went for standard

00:43:31.320 --> 00:43:34.579
edition, like 60 quid. Yeah. Gold edition was

00:43:34.579 --> 00:43:38.019
like 110 pound. Ultimate edition was about 30,

00:43:38.199 --> 00:43:40.659
which is the best version. How can you have a

00:43:40.659 --> 00:43:44.860
sale on the best pipe? The biggest package for

00:43:44.860 --> 00:43:46.960
the lowest price. And then it was like, oh, demo.

00:43:47.199 --> 00:43:49.059
I was like, I'll have that one then. They used

00:43:49.059 --> 00:43:52.500
to have the demo section in the PlayStation Store.

00:43:52.599 --> 00:43:53.940
They did, didn't they? They got rid of it. Did

00:43:53.940 --> 00:43:57.659
they? Yeah. So now trying to find a demo is fucking

00:43:57.659 --> 00:44:01.019
unbearable. Absolutely unbearable. I suppose

00:44:01.019 --> 00:44:03.400
it depends if you want to. I suppose you could

00:44:03.400 --> 00:44:04.699
probably just put it in the search bar, demo.

00:44:04.900 --> 00:44:07.099
I imagine that will come up. No, it doesn't.

00:44:07.099 --> 00:44:09.579
It doesn't because I tried. I'm not having that.

00:44:09.579 --> 00:44:13.059
It doesn't. The only thing where it still works,

00:44:13.300 --> 00:44:15.820
which is going to be where this disproves it,

00:44:15.920 --> 00:44:19.159
is in the PlayStation app on your phone. I'll

00:44:19.159 --> 00:44:22.920
put that away then. If you go onto the PlayStation

00:44:22.920 --> 00:44:26.320
store, when you go home, type it in, demo. it

00:44:26.320 --> 00:44:27.679
doesn't come up or anything because i remember

00:44:27.679 --> 00:44:29.380
when there was a specific category for it and

00:44:29.380 --> 00:44:31.159
i was like every now and then i'd flick through

00:44:31.159 --> 00:44:34.179
it and that was how because because i sat there

00:44:34.179 --> 00:44:35.699
and i thought to myself i was like i haven't

00:44:35.699 --> 00:44:38.119
played a demo because i wanted a new game and

00:44:38.119 --> 00:44:39.920
i was like i haven't played a demo in so long

00:44:39.920 --> 00:44:41.400
i was like what happened to the days when you

00:44:41.400 --> 00:44:43.400
could do that to to experience a game before

00:44:43.400 --> 00:44:46.039
you fucking paid out 70 quid for it so i was

00:44:46.039 --> 00:44:49.420
like let me find a demo and then yeah after searching

00:44:49.420 --> 00:44:52.300
for ages i googled it and and yeah they they

00:44:52.300 --> 00:44:57.719
just removed it for for whatever reason, PSN

00:44:57.719 --> 00:45:02.699
store removes... It's a good example of what

00:45:02.699 --> 00:45:04.260
we were talking about last week, though, with

00:45:04.260 --> 00:45:07.960
the PlayStation Plus, because I wanted that Warhammer

00:45:07.960 --> 00:45:10.719
bolt gun. It was like 15, 20 quid or something,

00:45:10.840 --> 00:45:13.239
a while, like, fucking ages ago, when I was last

00:45:13.239 --> 00:45:16.199
into my Warhammer. And I wanted it, but I didn't

00:45:16.199 --> 00:45:18.719
want to pay for it that much. So I wish -listed

00:45:18.719 --> 00:45:20.559
it, waiting for a sale, then I went back on my

00:45:20.559 --> 00:45:24.260
fancy ting. But then I went to look at it again,

00:45:24.670 --> 00:45:27.219
Warhammer Boltgun. And it just said download.

00:45:27.460 --> 00:45:28.739
I was like, oh, it must have been a PlayStation

00:45:28.739 --> 00:45:30.820
Plus game that I'd added to the library and just

00:45:30.820 --> 00:45:33.780
forgot about. So that's a prime example of when

00:45:33.780 --> 00:45:35.980
it works in your favor. So I've got it for free

00:45:35.980 --> 00:45:38.639
now. It says, while Sony hasn't removed the demo

00:45:38.639 --> 00:45:40.119
section from the PlayStation store entirely,

00:45:40.480 --> 00:45:42.659
some users are reporting that it's harder to

00:45:42.659 --> 00:45:45.239
find and may not be as prominently displayed

00:45:45.239 --> 00:45:48.179
as before. Demos are still available in the store,

00:45:48.320 --> 00:45:51.960
but they may be accessed through the individual

00:45:51.960 --> 00:45:55.739
games page or by searching directly for the demo.

00:45:56.500 --> 00:45:59.139
which for me defeats the whole fucking point

00:45:59.139 --> 00:46:01.340
of a demo because I thought the whole point of

00:46:01.340 --> 00:46:02.980
having a demo section was so that you could flick

00:46:02.980 --> 00:46:05.159
through and go oh I've never heard of that game

00:46:05.159 --> 00:46:08.519
let me play the demo for it not there's a game

00:46:08.519 --> 00:46:11.159
that I want let me search for the demo for that

00:46:11.159 --> 00:46:14.500
to see if I want it or not because it's like

00:46:14.500 --> 00:46:17.619
how do you know to me that just seems like a

00:46:17.619 --> 00:46:21.239
really odd tweak it is odd I tend to just look

00:46:21.239 --> 00:46:23.280
through the store what's come out most recently.

00:46:23.500 --> 00:46:25.360
Yeah. And then I look at the game and look at

00:46:25.360 --> 00:46:26.880
all the additions and if there's a demo there,

00:46:26.960 --> 00:46:29.420
then I'll download it. But I don't... Yeah. There

00:46:29.420 --> 00:46:31.119
was a demo section because I remember looking.

00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:33.039
And that's when I got the Final Fantasy one.

00:46:33.079 --> 00:46:35.739
Well, hopefully... I mean, hopefully you play

00:46:35.739 --> 00:46:39.579
it and you do enjoy it. Like I say, I wasn't

00:46:39.579 --> 00:46:42.099
a massive... I probably won't. I'm not expecting

00:46:42.099 --> 00:46:44.719
to from what I've heard about it, but... I've

00:46:44.719 --> 00:46:47.699
done it again. It's got mixed reviews. Yeah,

00:46:47.719 --> 00:46:49.380
I think they did sort a lot of the stuff out.

00:46:49.480 --> 00:46:52.880
There's a lot of forced stealth sections that

00:46:52.880 --> 00:46:55.059
they changed so they're not forced anymore. You

00:46:55.059 --> 00:46:58.780
can get caught and not lose instantly. I know

00:46:58.780 --> 00:47:00.760
they sorted a lot of stuff out, but to the extent,

00:47:00.960 --> 00:47:05.320
I'm unsure. I will give it a lot more leeway

00:47:05.320 --> 00:47:07.440
than most people because of how much I like Star

00:47:07.440 --> 00:47:09.960
Wars, so they get that in their favour already.

00:47:10.559 --> 00:47:12.360
By the looks of it on Steam, there's pointless

00:47:12.360 --> 00:47:13.980
me looking at reviews because most of them seem

00:47:13.980 --> 00:47:19.780
to be hardware issues. As opposed to the actual...

00:47:19.780 --> 00:47:24.929
When it came out and got... It's loads of negative

00:47:24.929 --> 00:47:27.409
reviews. I decided to ignore it, but bought it

00:47:27.409 --> 00:47:30.190
for 50 % off in this year's summer sale. After

00:47:30.190 --> 00:47:32.829
seven hours of gameplay, I'm surprised how fun

00:47:32.829 --> 00:47:34.809
this is, especially with the DualSense controller

00:47:34.809 --> 00:47:37.250
features being ported to PC version as well.

00:47:37.429 --> 00:47:40.110
As I see, the reviews now are mostly around crashes

00:47:40.110 --> 00:47:42.289
and bugs. In my seven hours, I haven't encountered

00:47:42.289 --> 00:47:44.449
any of those. I would recommend this game to

00:47:44.449 --> 00:47:46.710
anyone who likes a good open world game. Exploration

00:47:46.710 --> 00:47:49.550
feels pretty rewarding. Gunplay is great, just

00:47:49.550 --> 00:47:52.389
like riding around the speeder. I really like

00:47:52.389 --> 00:47:55.110
the graphics as well, though turning off RTX

00:47:55.110 --> 00:47:58.989
Direct Lighting is a must. More than half the

00:47:58.989 --> 00:48:01.610
frame of that won't be an issue. I've got an

00:48:01.610 --> 00:48:04.769
article from Polygon. Star Wars Outlaws had a

00:48:04.769 --> 00:48:06.949
bumpy takeoff when it launched last summer, and

00:48:06.949 --> 00:48:10.340
this was two months ago. And it's meh reception.

00:48:10.500 --> 00:48:11.679
They've stuck with it since. Because of that

00:48:11.679 --> 00:48:13.599
reception, forums like subreddit are constantly

00:48:13.599 --> 00:48:16.739
flooded with prospective scoundrels asking, is

00:48:16.739 --> 00:48:18.780
the game worth it? Let me tell you, if you've

00:48:18.780 --> 00:48:21.099
ever wanted to channel your inner Han Solo and

00:48:21.099 --> 00:48:23.579
explore the underbelly of Star Wars, it most

00:48:23.579 --> 00:48:25.599
certainly is worth it. One of the main criticisms

00:48:25.599 --> 00:48:29.119
of Star Wars Outlaws at launch, where it's automatic

00:48:29.119 --> 00:48:32.239
fail stealth sections, which I know more after

00:48:32.239 --> 00:48:35.119
a November 2024 update. Now, if a buckethead

00:48:35.119 --> 00:48:37.940
finds KVS sneaking around an Imperial base, in

00:48:37.940 --> 00:48:39.599
almost all cases, is you can channel your inner

00:48:39.599 --> 00:48:42.719
Danny DeVito and just start blasting when K's

00:48:42.719 --> 00:48:44.440
in trouble. The gunplay's very fun and during

00:48:44.440 --> 00:48:46.280
my time with Outlaws, I enjoyed both the challenge

00:48:46.280 --> 00:48:48.800
of giving sneaky stealth an honest try as well

00:48:48.800 --> 00:48:51.360
as pew -pewing a stormtrooper in the face. With

00:48:51.360 --> 00:48:53.500
the frustrating auto -foul out the way, there's

00:48:53.500 --> 00:48:55.539
a lot to love in Outlaws. It's a planet -hopping

00:48:55.539 --> 00:48:58.179
adventure showcasing recognisable Star Wars planets.

00:48:58.460 --> 00:48:59.780
I don't want to read what ones they are because

00:48:59.780 --> 00:49:01.820
I'd like to find out myself. Old heads and new

00:49:01.820 --> 00:49:04.699
fans alike will surely marvel at massive recreation

00:49:04.699 --> 00:49:08.440
of Tatooine, home to Spaceport's most... the

00:49:08.440 --> 00:49:11.019
famous cantina has a scorch march from where

00:49:11.019 --> 00:49:14.099
hands shot first oh that's sick that's cool man

00:49:14.099 --> 00:49:16.820
you know what he's talking about yeah he shoots

00:49:16.820 --> 00:49:19.860
greedo oh yeah cool see stuff like that let's

00:49:19.860 --> 00:49:22.579
put a smile on my face and you can even visit

00:49:22.579 --> 00:49:24.619
jabba's palace and discover some fun easter eggs

00:49:24.619 --> 00:49:27.340
inside cool of course i want to star wars outlaws

00:49:27.340 --> 00:49:29.099
is perfect it's stuffed with ideas and mechanics

00:49:29.099 --> 00:49:31.119
and it features a typical collectifon annoyance

00:49:31.119 --> 00:49:34.400
you'd expect from a ubisoft game However, if

00:49:34.400 --> 00:49:36.559
you don't want to engage with any of its many,

00:49:36.679 --> 00:49:39.079
many gameplay features, don't. I didn't entertain

00:49:39.079 --> 00:49:41.019
a single speed of race and I only played out

00:49:41.019 --> 00:49:42.860
space battles when the main story required it.

00:49:43.260 --> 00:49:45.880
Instead, Star Wars Outlaws offers plenty of Uncharted

00:49:45.880 --> 00:49:48.860
-esque platforming and solid third -person shooting

00:49:48.860 --> 00:49:51.219
to keep you away from the mechanics that don't

00:49:51.219 --> 00:49:54.050
tickle your fancy. It also has Sabacc. Ah, it's

00:49:54.050 --> 00:49:56.369
got Sabark in it. I love that. It's a card game,

00:49:56.469 --> 00:49:58.710
which really should be spun into its own game

00:49:58.710 --> 00:50:01.230
like The Witcher 3 Gwent. Sabark is one of the

00:50:01.230 --> 00:50:03.550
best minigames you'll find in an RPG. It's simple

00:50:03.550 --> 00:50:05.730
and exciting. Mechanics would fit right in at

00:50:05.730 --> 00:50:07.969
a Vegas casino. I don't typically purchase DLC

00:50:07.969 --> 00:50:10.389
for games. There's just too much to play, you

00:50:10.389 --> 00:50:12.949
know. But Outlaw's wildcard mission, which saw

00:50:12.949 --> 00:50:15.150
Kate infiltrate a high -stakes Sabark game before

00:50:15.150 --> 00:50:17.590
shit hits the fans, too good to pass up with

00:50:17.590 --> 00:50:21.059
its exhilarating Sabark centrepiece. Outlaws'

00:50:21.179 --> 00:50:23.460
second story DLC, A Pirate's Fortune, was released

00:50:23.460 --> 00:50:25.539
on Thursday, May 15, potentially putting a bow

00:50:25.539 --> 00:50:28.840
on new content. content for Souls Outlaws. Still,

00:50:28.980 --> 00:50:30.699
the game isn't done yet. It hits Nintendo Switch

00:50:30.699 --> 00:50:33.260
2 in September, meaning you'll be able to gamble,

00:50:33.300 --> 00:50:35.360
fly through space and pew -pew on the go in between

00:50:35.360 --> 00:50:37.659
races of Mario Kart. If you picked up Outlaws

00:50:37.659 --> 00:50:39.400
at launch but quickly bounced or if you're simply

00:50:39.400 --> 00:50:41.199
in the mood for an engrossing open world adventure,

00:50:41.360 --> 00:50:43.860
check it out. Outlaws is worth it for Sabacc

00:50:43.860 --> 00:50:47.219
alone. So I might say, yeah, you might be absolutely

00:50:47.219 --> 00:50:50.519
fine then. Yeah, Sabacc, they had Sabacc in Knights

00:50:50.519 --> 00:50:57.659
of the Old Republic, which is, um, like, when

00:50:57.659 --> 00:51:01.599
Obsidian were at the, or Bioware were at their

00:51:01.599 --> 00:51:05.079
forefront. So they made Mass Effect and stuff.

00:51:06.019 --> 00:51:07.719
It's the game that everyone talks about remaking,

00:51:07.760 --> 00:51:09.679
right? You've seen it before, the Knights of

00:51:09.679 --> 00:51:12.139
the Old Republic trailer that everyone went mad

00:51:12.139 --> 00:51:14.099
for the remake and then it's just gone into fucking

00:51:14.099 --> 00:51:16.280
development turmoil, of course. Because nothing

00:51:16.280 --> 00:51:19.619
ever good happens for Star Wars games. So yeah,

00:51:19.639 --> 00:51:20.880
I don't know if that'll ever come. But yeah,

00:51:20.920 --> 00:51:22.179
I had it in there. It was quite a little fun

00:51:22.179 --> 00:51:25.460
game, but I imagine it'll be better. on a modern

00:51:25.460 --> 00:51:29.219
game with modern systems. I look forward to hearing

00:51:29.219 --> 00:51:31.400
about that then. It might take a while because

00:51:31.400 --> 00:51:33.780
I've promised myself and I actually stuck to

00:51:33.780 --> 00:51:36.880
it for the first time ever that I'm not going

00:51:36.880 --> 00:51:39.039
to just keep fucking jumping from game to game.

00:51:39.219 --> 00:51:41.099
So I started Death Stranding 2 so I finished

00:51:41.099 --> 00:51:43.719
Death Stranding 2 because I wanted to do nothing

00:51:43.719 --> 00:51:46.280
more than play Darktide but I didn't buy it.

00:51:46.400 --> 00:51:50.199
But whilst I was on what I thought was the end

00:51:50.199 --> 00:51:52.429
of Death Stranding 2 I thought, right, well,

00:51:52.530 --> 00:51:54.590
I'll get Darktide downloaded now. So I bought

00:51:54.590 --> 00:51:56.469
that, downloaded it while I was still playing

00:51:56.469 --> 00:51:58.050
Death Stranding 2. But he'd done that classic

00:51:58.050 --> 00:52:00.469
thing where it was 10 o 'clock at night and I

00:52:00.469 --> 00:52:03.010
was thinking, I'm right near the end here. I

00:52:03.010 --> 00:52:04.909
was still up at 2 o 'clock trying to finish it.

00:52:05.130 --> 00:52:06.789
Because I was like, you know when you're right

00:52:06.789 --> 00:52:08.650
at the end, but you're like, I don't want to

00:52:08.650 --> 00:52:10.289
put it down and just play it for 10 minutes to

00:52:10.289 --> 00:52:12.599
get to the end tomorrow. Detroit Become Human.

00:52:12.820 --> 00:52:14.619
Yeah, I just need to finish it. But it just wouldn't

00:52:14.619 --> 00:52:16.980
fucking end. It wouldn't stop. It's like, yeah,

00:52:17.000 --> 00:52:18.639
this is the end now. This is the end end. And

00:52:18.639 --> 00:52:20.539
you're just like, fuck off. It almost ruins it,

00:52:20.559 --> 00:52:21.760
doesn't it? It pisses me off. And then you've

00:52:21.760 --> 00:52:23.800
got like an epilogue. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You go,

00:52:23.880 --> 00:52:26.960
oh, fucking hell. Yeah, like Expedition. You

00:52:26.960 --> 00:52:30.119
go, just let me finish. Yeah, Expedition, prime

00:52:30.119 --> 00:52:32.840
example. Just fucking end, man. I'm done. I'm

00:52:32.840 --> 00:52:35.019
done. Just end. I've had a great time. Let me

00:52:35.019 --> 00:52:37.719
fucking go. And it's always late at night as

00:52:37.719 --> 00:52:39.500
well. Yeah, exactly. Like I say, Detroit Become

00:52:39.500 --> 00:52:41.190
Human was one of the fucking worst. I remember

00:52:41.190 --> 00:52:43.030
Steph was with me because we sort of played that

00:52:43.030 --> 00:52:47.889
through together and yeah it was like we're I

00:52:47.889 --> 00:52:50.389
think the last of us part two as well was the

00:52:50.389 --> 00:52:52.610
same we're like we're almost done like this is

00:52:52.610 --> 00:52:54.409
it this is the end and then two hours later and

00:52:54.409 --> 00:52:57.090
you go fuck and then you sort of like hit a tipping

00:52:57.090 --> 00:53:01.690
point where like you go I'll give it another

00:53:01.690 --> 00:53:04.010
20 minutes And then you give it another 20 minutes

00:53:04.010 --> 00:53:06.110
and then it looks like it's about to end. So

00:53:06.110 --> 00:53:07.869
you go, all right, well, I'll carry on then.

00:53:08.030 --> 00:53:09.630
And you almost hit that point where you go, all

00:53:09.630 --> 00:53:10.929
right, well, I've gone too far now because I

00:53:10.929 --> 00:53:13.389
might as well, I'll need to continue. I definitely

00:53:13.389 --> 00:53:15.170
can't stop it now. You sit there and you think

00:53:15.170 --> 00:53:17.769
I've just wasted or I haven't wasted, but I was

00:53:17.769 --> 00:53:19.710
like, I don't want to get up tomorrow and just

00:53:19.710 --> 00:53:21.989
do 10 minutes when really there was four hours

00:53:21.989 --> 00:53:23.909
of gameplay that I could have carried on with

00:53:23.909 --> 00:53:27.630
feeling fresh and happy about it. Exactly. But

00:53:27.630 --> 00:53:31.800
I'm proud that I did that. So now I've done the

00:53:31.800 --> 00:53:33.800
terrible thing and started Rogue Trader, which

00:53:33.800 --> 00:53:36.539
is a huge game. And I didn't just do that. I

00:53:36.539 --> 00:53:38.880
also bought, because since I last played it,

00:53:38.900 --> 00:53:42.559
they've had like all season one DLC, which had

00:53:42.559 --> 00:53:45.480
like 15 hours a piece. So I've added 30 hours

00:53:45.480 --> 00:53:48.739
into the game. So that game is going to take

00:53:48.739 --> 00:53:51.579
me a long time. I'm going to finish it before,

00:53:51.659 --> 00:53:53.480
because if I stop playing it again, I'll have

00:53:53.480 --> 00:53:55.719
to start a new play, save file again, and I know

00:53:55.719 --> 00:53:57.780
that I will never do that again because I don't

00:53:57.780 --> 00:54:00.320
want to do the start for the third time. So,

00:54:00.420 --> 00:54:03.059
yeah, I'm invested in finishing it now, so I'll

00:54:03.059 --> 00:54:05.059
play that. I normally do one or two games at

00:54:05.059 --> 00:54:06.599
the same time. You know this. I like to do a

00:54:06.599 --> 00:54:08.119
little multiplayer game, so I've got rematch

00:54:08.119 --> 00:54:12.840
or a little shooty game or something maybe. But,

00:54:12.960 --> 00:54:15.119
yeah, I'm sticking with Rogue Trader now, so

00:54:15.119 --> 00:54:17.500
that'll be me for a while. You heard it here

00:54:17.500 --> 00:54:20.440
first, ladies and gentlemen. Tune in next week

00:54:20.440 --> 00:54:22.440
and see how we're getting on with it. See you

00:54:22.440 --> 00:54:22.900
later, everyone.
