Hello. It's me. Connor, if you say Ash ain't
here again one more fucking time, we're going
to fall out, bruv. He's a dirty little ginger
cunt, isn't he? Not my fault. I haven't been
here for four weeks. Not one has been my fault.
It hasn't, to be fair. Not one of them. No. So
any more talk about removing my face from merchandise
can suck my ball bag. Fuming. Fuming. Now that's
out of the way. It's because he's got a sense
of entitlement. Because he's ginger. Yeah. He's
ginger and he has to drive a lot. Always me.
Got no soul. Fucking hell. Giza needs to stay
in his own lane. Fuck him. To be fair, he did
get us out of a pinch and we also had a very
good episode. Have you listened to it? Yeah,
I did. And then he said that he's going to remove
my face from the merch and that, oh, Ash ain't
here again. And I punched my phone. Yeah. In
rage. Which is unlike me these days. I'm quite
a relaxed guy. But that pushed the wrong buttons.
Put your back, and now we normal. No more courses.
I'm done. So there should be no more things in
the way. Understand. No more London visits. We're
good to go. Yeah. Suck that, bitch. Yeah. Shout
out, Axel from Audi. All right? That's what we're
getting. nah Rich told me you wanted to a little
shout out and you listen all the time so yeah
thanks for you buddy appreciate it don't say
your name on the Patreon though no no no avid
listener not avid payer yeah so fucking useless
to us really yeah I don't might as well stop
listening actually fuck you fuck you Axel yeah
I wouldn't bother it's a waste of time alright
Josh thanks man I'm not oh fuck us a whole month
Is that how fucking long it's been? I haven't
been here since I completed Rogue Trader. That's
what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. I don't
even know how the end of Rogue Trader... It's
been so long I can't remember, bro. You finished
Rogue Trader. I didn't find out what it is. Me
and Steph are on a playthrough of Baldur's Gate
3 as well. There's a lot that's gone on in the
background. Dying like the beast. You ain't even
ready for the biggest bombshell I'm going to
drop. Go on. Got a PC. What? I've got a fucking
fully -fledged, beefy gaming PC. Yeah. Where?
Where have you set that up? On the dog crate.
Fair one. When did you get that? What? A couple
of weeks ago. What one did you get? Why did you
get that? I don't know. What do you mean? Well,
Giza at work was selling it a while ago. Fucking
months ago. Yeah. It was like 500 quid or something.
Yeah. because he's got like a big beefy one now.
He built it himself from that bollocks. And then
I see him again the other day and he was like,
oh yeah, I've still got that PC. My sister didn't
want it. I was going to give it to her. I was
like, you're going to give it to her? You should
sell it to me for fucking half a bag of sand.
Fuck off, bro. I said, I'll tell you what, I'll
give you an offer. One, I'll take it or leave
it. He's like, done. I was like, sold. Does it
work? Yeah, mate. Yeah, it works. It's the fucking
fastest thing I've ever touched. What have you
put on it so far? Fuck all. World of Warcraft?
No. So, a funny story about it. I mean, no. I
give him a one -up, went round his gaff after
work, picked it up. This is showing my age, I
believe. He came out. Here you go. I popped on
the back seat. I was like, I'll see you in a
minute. He was like, where's the rest? He was
like, that's it. I was like, well, where's the
screen? He's like, no, you bought the PC. There's
no screen. Yeah, you bought the tower. Hold on.
Where's the keyboard and mouse? Yeah, exactly.
I thought I was waiting for the whole shebang.
Yeah, no. No. So I went the next day, spent another
one on a monitor, fucking keyboard, mouse. Got
home, set it all up, fucking went on YouTube,
test it all out. No sound. Brilliant. And got
no speakers. Yeah. Yeah, fantastic. Yeah, yeah,
you need speakers. Oh, yeah, no, it's mustard.
You turn it on, fucking. The whole thing lights
up red. Of course it does. He's built it all
like... Weird thing, though, mate, because I
know you listen, which I didn't know. He's a
secret listener. He said he listens. There's
quite a few. We've got quite a few secret listeners.
Don't be ashamed. He said... I can't remember
what he said. Well, yeah, fair enough. Yeah.
Oh, no. I had to buy a fucking Ethernet cable
because he didn't install a Wi -Fi thing in it.
Yeah, why would you? Why wouldn't you? Who don't
have Wi -Fi in a computer? Because an Ethernet's
a lot quicker. Yeah, but then you've got to plug
it into the fucking router. Well, yeah. Long.
Yeah, there's a whole point. No. Plug it straight
in, run a cable up the ceiling. Oh. Well, I had
to do that anyway, but yeah. Oh, you did plug
an ethernet in? Yeah, yeah. He said, oh, you
can just put this little adapter in. You've just
got to unplug this and screw that out. I was
like, fuck all that. I was getting a cable made.
I feel like once you get given instructions past
unplug, it's too much. Yeah, no, I'm out. So,
yeah, no, I've got it. To be honest, the main
reason I bought it is for the kids because a
lot of their homework's online and they don't
really have a way of doing it. properly yeah
yeah so or evelyn especially her homework's online
so yeah so now she does all i need to keep it
updated mate i have mate you wouldn't believe
what i done i went on there when i because you
taught me do all the updates check all the updates
bang done all them and then whatever the new
windows is right windows 8 9 fuck knows whatever
it is what is it is it more than that no it's
windows 8 all right so the new windows 9 is coming
out soon then and it was like check to see if
your computer's ready for windows 9 so i clicked
it said you're not ready for windows 9 and i
was like okay and it said you need you need this
fucking thing so then i googled it and it said
you had to like go into the debug menu so i had
to restart computer go into this weird digital
realm like cyberspace shit and i had to change
all these settings yeah I had to watch YouTube
videos. Have you updated your drivers? Yeah,
I don't know what I did. I did loads of stuff
and it said, you're now ready for Windows 9.
Well done. And I was like, I'm learning, man.
Yeah. I'm learning, but it's confusing. I don't
suppose you know what graphics card's in it.
I ain't got a clue, mate. I wouldn't be able
to tell you. How would I know that? Well, he
played all games. Well, you can probably see
it. What's the tower like? Big black. It's not
Seafrook. It's Seafrook. You can probably see
where the... I'll have a look later. I know he
played proper games on it, like Call of Duty
and all the latest and best. He wanted a new
PC because he wanted more. More speed, more power.
Whereas, as I said, the most exotic game I'll
be playing on this will probably be Football
Manager. Maybe World of Warcraft. It's not going
to be good. Any AAA games, I'll just play on
PlayStation. Fair enough. It's nice to have a
computer. but I've done nothing on it. I've downloaded
Warhammer Dawn of War or something, but it's
an old game they remastered and I'm just not
built like that. It's just too complicated for
me. I'll just fucking log now. Should have had
a look on the old Steam sales as per last week's
episode. Well, not last week's episode, Monday's
episode. It was Monday's episode. I did look
on Steam. Double whammy. But there's nothing
I really want. Anything that I can play on PlayStation,
I will. I'll never choose PC over that. That's
cool entering the world of having a PC, though.
Yeah, so eventually I probably will be able to
play WoW properly. But I still... The trouble
is I need a desk now because it's no good on
Dog Crate because there's obviously a crate here
so I can't put my legs underneath. So I'm kind
of just like... It's awkward. But yeah, it's
cool. So yeah, it's been quite a... I was going
to tell you, I got it like two, three weeks ago
and I thought, fuck it, I'll tell him on Friday.
I'll tell him next Friday. I'll tell him the
Friday after. Yeah, yeah. Lucky I didn't forget,
to be honest. Yeah, it's been quite a heavy one.
But yeah, it's cool. What else has happened?
Nothing. Oh, I've been playing Star Wars Outlaws.
Have you finished that yet? Nah, but I still
bought Dying Light the Beast. Yeah, yeah. Couldn't
stop myself. Have you played that? Yeah, yeah.
How far in are you there? I don't know. It depends
where you are. I've played a bit. Played a bit.
I've played a bit. I mean, the last thing I did,
I exited some mines. It was the main story. It
was main story, was it? Yeah. Maybe I've done
that. What, with the... Not with the dad? No,
yeah, I've done that as well. Yeah, where you
have to arm all the explosives. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was funny enough, the thing I'd done before
I did that. What the fuck did I finish with?
Because I'm not crazy, crazy firing. No, no,
me either. I'm like level six or seven, I think.
Yeah, I'm level six. It's probably about the
same sort of point. Yeah. Basically, you go into
a cave because the Baron's in there. That's all
I'll say. Yeah, I haven't done that bit yet.
Yeah, so that's the last thing I did. I need
to jump on it. It's good, man. It's very good.
It is good. I'm enjoying it. It's fucking gory.
The night time is... I don't go out at night.
Neither do I. The only time I've gone out at
night was one of the first missions where it
makes you go out at night. And even then, I held...
You know where you have to chase the volatile
sort of at the beginning. And it takes you to
that... There's a couple of cars on fire and
that lorry that's under the bridge and it's got
the black light on it. or the blue light, whatever
it is. And I spent so long hiding out in that
lorry that it turned into day. So the nighttime
mission turned into a daytime mission and I was
able to finish it. But other than that, I will
not go out at night. I can't do it, bro. It's
too dark. It's very dark. It's completely dark.
You've got your fucking flashlight. That is it.
And then these things kill you so quick. There
was a mission I was doing and I came out of the
mission. I think it was like, when you repower
the power plant. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think it
was that, and I came out of there. What, the
water one? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I came out of there,
it was pitch black, and I had to get back to
the cathedral. So I jumped in a motor, and then
all the chases going up, one, two, three, four.
And I think, I'm all right, I'm in a motor. But
they're all jumping on the car and that, bro.
So I thought, oh, you just run through them.
Nah. They jump on the car. They got the car on
fire. And I was like 30 meters away from the
cathedral. And you have to go right across town
to get there. Yeah, cathedral's a cunt. And then
they banged me. I was fuming. Because you lose
all your HP. Oh, so angry, bro. I had the exact
same thing. But I didn't. I come out of that
place. It was nighttime. And I was like, I can't.
I can't. Because normally what I'll do if I'm
in that situation and I'm by a light. I'll just
stand by it and go make a cup of tea. I'll wait
for that shit to turn the day. But it won't turn
in a day. So it obviously wanted you to fucking
run in the night. And the cathedral, Cathedral
of Everyone's Wondering, is sort of like one
of your HQs. Unless you know the entrances, it's
a fucker to find them. I hated it. The first
time I went into the cathedral and come out of
it, I was like, this is shit. Why can't I just
go through the front door? I can come out the
front door. I can't fucking go back in it. It
makes no sense. Until you find that window or
whatever. So yeah, when I come out of that power
plant, fuck me, I had to book it to the cathedral.
You can go in the front door. Yeah, you can.
But for some reason, at the very beginning, it
wasn't allowing me to go in the front door. You
needed to break in, didn't you? Yeah. But fucking,
yeah, I was chasing. They are terrifying. Absolutely
terrifying. I killed one. Yeah, I've killed a
couple. I've killed none. But I got an achievement
saying, you've killed a volatile. I was like,
sweet. He must have fallen off or something.
When did I kill one? I killed one, funnily enough,
I think it was in the power plant because you
go underground, didn't you? That might have been
where it happened to me. Isn't that when you
save the engineer and his family are underground?
I think it is the same place. And you save the
engineer with his wife and his child. And you're
like walking through the sewers and shit. But
there's all different areas you can go in. And
there was one area where I went in and it makes
you climb under. a grid on the floor so you're
prone and at the end of it it was a fucking volatile
and I was like I haven't done that I was like
are you kidding me that's a different power plant
I haven't been in that one I don't think it was
a side I didn't meet no engineering family bro
it might have been a side mission then possibly
a side mission but yeah there's this volatile
there and I was like what what am I supposed
to do what the fuck am I supposed to do here
but I had those throwing knives that stun The
electrical ones. I had four of them. So I just
fucking banged him with them. Threw that. Just
smacking him up. And then just kept throwing
them. It was a good little thing. Solo, that
works. I reckon if there's two or three of them,
I'm fucked. All day. I don't know. I haven't
even attempted to fucking attack them. They're
lethal. I've been against one when I'm the beast.
They just get fucked. I feel absolutely unstoppable
when I'm the beast. I'm currently saving up.
for the ability to not go into the beast when
it hits the full bar. Just unlock that, yeah.
It's nice. You just keep it primed whenever you
need it. Yeah, that's what I want to get to.
It's decent. I've got some good weapons. I'm
enjoying it. I'm going to play it. It's good,
man. It's very good. It's very fucking good.
It's just more of what I wanted from the last
one, except now there's cars, which I love. Yeah.
I like getting fuel and that. I don't know. It
just scratches an itch in my brain. Because they
got brought in on a DLC for Dying Light, didn't
they? Yeah. And then obviously brought over...
I don't really touch the vehicles, to be fair.
Oh, that's good. It's... Yeah. Especially because
you can go in third person in that as well, so
you can see everything. Third person's nice.
But I literally, the last time I played it, I
just got... Because I was still rocking, like,
level two and three weapons. Same. And then hit
level six, and then the vendor unlocked a load
of level six weapons, so I bought some, and then
fucking crafted some, and upgraded them, and
blah, blah. So I went from, like... weapons that
do they were doing like 160 damage to now i've
got a weapon i think it does just under 400 so
i was like oh and it's like some fat off scythe
thing with two mods on it i was like yeah i'm
gonna i'm gonna fuck shit up with this but i
haven't used them yet it's very satisfying about
scavenging in that game i just like picking stuff
up it just makes me feel happy when it's like
and you're picking shit up. I haven't got the
grappling hook yet. No, I haven't. I didn't even
know it was in the game. I got spoiled by looking
at the skill tree. Yeah, same. Oh, yeah, the
beast. Use the grappling hook while you're the
beast. I was like, what? I was like, what grappling
hook? I forgot that was even in the second one.
Yeah. That's good, man. It's good. We need to
talk about Star Wars Outlaws, though, because
that's a good game. That's a damn good game.
Granted... It's had a lot of work done, ain't
it? You know what I mean? I never played it when
it first came out. I don't think it released
fantastic. I don't think it was bad, but I don't
think it released great. But then the biggest
problem people used to have with them was the
fucking, like the auto -fail stealth missions
and stuff like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They took
them out, didn't they? Because I imagine, stealth's
not fantastic, so I imagine, yeah, that would
be very irritating. But if you're a Star Wars,
you probably wouldn't get out what I'd get out
of it. But if you're a Star Wars fan and you
just love Star Wars, just being able to look
around places and going to Imperial Starships
and just looking at shit, it's a Star Wars fan's
wet dream, mate. I don't see what... I'm struggling
to see what the problem is. It is very Ubisoft
-y. I get that. It's got that Ubisoft touch to
it. Granted, it's Ubisoft. But as just a Star
Wars game, mate, that's probably up there with
one of the better ones, for sure. So, yeah, and
the quality, like the detail, the attention to
detail and the graphics and all that, and the
sound design, fuck it. Now, when you're on the
speeder and you're going past trees, it gives
you that... I've never heard that in a game before.
It was taking me aback a little bit. It's got
good reviews. Mostly positive reviews at the
moment on Steam. It's good, man. It's very good.
I'm enjoying it. I'm fairly enjoying it. The
trouble is, at the moment, I'm very, like, in
and out of games. I'm not really committed to
anything. So I'm like, I'll play a bit of Star
Wars and then I'll jump on a bit of fucking FIFA
and then I'll jump on a bit of fucking Dying
Light. Nothing's really grabbed my bollocks.
I played a bit of DayZ the other day as well
because Dying Light and DayZ kind of go hand
in hand. Yep. And then all in preparation for
the big bad boy today, isn't it? Dropped the
one on it yesterday. Yeah, I didn't drop a one
on it. Yeah, I didn't want to. I tried not to.
But I just did. The skins. Skins, man. Skins
and the battle pass and the 25 skips. Well, the
way I saw it was the battle pass is probably
10, 15 pound anyway. Yeah, I mean. And I'm probably,
I know you probably wouldn't, but I'm probably
going to buy a battle pass because I'm a slag.
Yeah. If it's going to cost me that anyway, it's
20 quid more. So I might as well pay the fucking
20 quid and get the skins and a battle pass.
I probably won't bother with a battle pass. Understandably.
It's weird because I'll play a lot of it. I'm
excited for the campaign. Like, I won't sink
as much time into it as I think that I will.
I just know I won't, so therefore the need for
getting a Battle Pass, I'm like, nah. There's
too many games. You've got fucking Ghost of Yotai
as well, which I still need to get. The thing
I'm most excited for is Outer Worlds 2, which
is crazy. Out of the whole catalogue of games
that have released in the last month, Outer Worlds
2 is the one that I'm most excited for. Who gives
a fuck? That's going to blow up, bro. I doubt
it will. You don't think? No, I don't think so.
You want to bet? No, I don't think Ark Raiders
will blow up. Ark Raiders looks good. I have
a friendly bet with you that that game is going
to blow the fuck up. You reckon? I know. I can
feel it in my bones. In your bones? In my bones.
The problem is with Ark Raiders is that I've
seen lots of clips of people playing it, but
they're obviously people that are being paid
to play it. So therefore, I always think, well,
you're immediately biased. And then they've got
that fucking annoying streamer talk where, you
know what I mean? Where everything's over -exaggerated
and exciting and they're just sat in a fucking
pause menu. But they are having or have already
had an open beta. So there is a lot of people
that have just played it casually or will be
playing it casually. One or the other. Upcoming
third -person extraction shooter. It's going
to be big, mate. I'm telling you, there's too
many games coming out this month. So we've had
Ghost of Yotai, fucking Battlefield 6, Dying
Light, Ark Raiders, Outer Worlds 2. There's something
else as well. Little Nightmares 3. Little Nightmares
3. Not that I'm interested, but I know a load
of people are. There's more. There's so much,
man. There's so much. Oh, Vampire Bloodlines
or something. That looks really fucking good.
That comes out this month as well. It's just
like, mate, I fucking... You've got Ninja Gaiden
4, Ark Raiders. Big. I mean, these can't all
be coming out this month. Yeah. I mean, it says
Assassin's Creed Shadows on it, so that one can't...
I asked for a list of October Ghost of Yotai,
Super Mario Galaxy plus Super Mario Galaxy 2.
And then we've got Digimon Story. Time Stranger.
Battlefield 6. Disgaea 7. I don't know what that
is. Little Nightmares 3. Just Dance 2026 Edition.
Pokemon Legends Z to A. That's the new one. That's
going to be huge. Keeper. Jurassic World Evolution
3. Ninja Gaiden 4. Vampire the Masquerade. Bloodlines
2. Wicked. Painkiller. Dispatch, Double Dragon
Revive, Once Upon a Katamari, and then Plants
vs. Zombies Replanted, and The Outer Worlds 2,
and Dark Raiders, and Dragon Quest 1 and 2, and
Mortal Kombat, and Virtual Fighter, and then
finishing off with Mina the Hollower. It's a
big month, man. It's a big month. Add to the
fact I'm already playing fucking Star Wars Outlaws,
dying like the beast. Set in a future world where
humanity has been driven underground by dangerous
machines, Ark Raiders is a multiplayer extraction
shooter from Embark Studios. Originally designed
as a free -to -play PvE shooter before it swapped
genres, Ark Raiders will cost $40 when it launches
this month. As a member of the underground society
of Speranza, it's up to you to venture to the
surface to explore a devastated world with supplies
while the Ark machine... are dangerous. You might
want to keep an eye on your fellow scavengers
just in case they decide to turn on you. It's
going to be huge. Did you ever play the finals?
Yes. Apparently, they're made by the same people.
Apparently, it's the same universe as well. Very
interesting bit of lore, right? They reckon.
So this is like humanity has fucking crumbled
or whatever. These people live underground. You
come out, you scavenge, you go back underground,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But all the fucking
rich cunts, all the big fucking rich boys fucked
off to space. Of course they did. And the finals
is the rich people, like Squid Game, going, yeah,
fucking off you go. Go kill each other for our
entertainment. Decent. I like that. Bit of world
building. I don't know if that's true, but I
read it, and I don't know if it's law accurate
or just speculation, but very cool. Yeah. But,
mate, honestly, I promise you now, that game
is going to be fucking massive. Massive. Trust
me. I feel like something like an extraction
shooter just won't be. No, but this is why this
is going to be, because this is going to make
the extraction shooter a big thing. Trust me,
you watch. You watch. Extraction shooters have
already been a big thing. No, not like this.
You watch. This is bringing it into the mainstream.
Tarkov, no one plays that. It's only on PC, bro.
All the fucking gamers are on console, man. PC's
just for streamers and fucking ultra nerds. I
know, I think... I think probably the majority
of gamers are on PC. I don't think so. I genuinely
disagree with that. All the people that are just
getting from work, like your average geezer that
plays games every night, they're not booting
up no PC, bro. They're playing PlayStation or
Xbox or whatever. Nah, I think there's a healthy
mix, but I don't think that console overtakes
PC. Ultra nerds, computer. Connor Coatman. Nah,
but it's not, though, because you've got a PC.
You are definitely not an ultra nerd. Yeah, but
I'm not using it. I'm not gaming on it. What
did I just tell you? I'll be playing on the PlayStation.
I'll only play things on PC if I have to, like
Football Manager or whatever. I'm not playing
no games on PC. So like all my mates that ain't
gamers but do play like Call of Duty and GTA,
they're not playing on no PC, bro. They're playing
on console because they're just casual gamers.
There's a lot more casual gamers than there are
hardcore gamers. You think how many PlayStation
5s are in people's houses that... don't really
get used or if they do they're just playing cod
a couple of times a week or something yeah there's
a lot more casuals than there is there's there's
probably more houses now with a playstation console
in than not i would imagine there'll be more
than pcs that's just what i'm saying so the casual
gaming computer systems the casual gaming the
casual gaming audience is much larger than we
give it credit for because you don't hear from
them do you you don't hear from no casual gamers
they're quiet they're the silent majority man
Exactly, and I just can't see a casual gamer
picking up something like Ark Raiders. No, but
yeah, but that's what I'm saying. The silent
majority, if this game gets massive traction,
they'll be like, yeah, I want to check this out,
but they won't play with anyone. They'll just
play on their onesies. There's no shame in that,
and they're not posting it all over Twitter or
Instagram or whatever. What's difficult is what's
the end goal? It's just that buzz, isn't it?
Getting out, getting in that loop. I don't know.
I'm just saying that game's going to be huge.
I'll live and die by this sword. It depends what
the catch is. What's the hook? Because an extraction
shooter isn't a hook anymore. It's been done
to death. Yeah, but it is to people that haven't
played extraction shooters. I've never played
an extraction shooter. I've played Vigor, which
was not really even a thing. I've always wanted
to play Tarkov, never been able to because I've
never had a computer. This, I definitely will
be. There needs to be a reason why you're doing
what you're doing. That's why something like
Helldivers, for example, is popular but has its
own niche player base where it's predominantly
filled up with people that dip in and out of
that game. Like myself, love Helldivers too.
Fantastic game. I had like an ADHD moment where
I played it solid for about two weeks. It's like
having cheese toasties. I'll have them consistently
for six months and then I won't have another
one for six years. I'll have my fix and then
I'm done. Yeah, but that's just like anything.
That's just the ADHD brain kicking. Yeah, but
that's also because there's... The shooting bugs
and robots can only go so far until you realise...
I'm doing the same thing over and over again.
What's the... Other than the surface fun. No,
I know what you're saying. But then I'm also
in the same camp as you. I'll get bored of stuff
and I'll move on. I'll get my fix and I'll be
like, yeah, I'm moving on. And then I might come
back to him and be like, why did I stop playing
this? And then play it for three weeks and be
like, oh, I'm done. But it's the same core duty.
What's the hook there? You just play it over
and over and over and over and over again. There's
no hook. Battlefield. Just like shooting shit.
You know what I mean? It doesn't... It doesn't
have to always be some mega hook, but I get what
you're saying. I think that's probably why something
like with Battlefield, why I know I won't play
it as much as younger me. Maybe I'm just fucking
growing up. World of Warcraft has got that constant
progression. There's always something to be doing,
whereas that's why you always go back to that.
Also, I feel like I'm getting old. I'm not as
good as first -person shooters as I used to be.
I'm getting old. I'll be honest. I'm nowhere
near as good. This last week, I felt like I was
falling out of love with gaming, bro, because
I was getting in. I can't be bothered to play
nothing. I was literally, last night, I opened
up the laptop because World of Warcraft Legion
Remix is out, where you can get loads of really
cool mounts and all sorts of cool shit. And I
never played Legion, and it's one of the best
expansions that they made. So it's like, cool.
I get to... Jump back into that. I haven't played
a lot of WoW since we got Curve, blah -de -blah
-de -blah. Opened the laptop, updated WoW, turned
it off. I thought, I can't be bothered. So then
I went and sat in the front room, turned the
PlayStation on, went to load up Dying Light,
and then went, I can't be bothered. So I watched
Attack on Titan instead. Binged like fucking
eight episodes of it. I love it. But I think
just tired, man. we've got a lot going on in
the backgrounds that's what I said I feel like
I'm burnt out because stress worry anxiousness
excited there's just a lot of stuff there's a
lot going on there's a lot of stuff occupying
my brain which is which is very important stuff
and also like not just important for me it weighs
heavily on my family and my whole life as a whole
so when it comes to like playing computer games
I'm just like I haven't got the energy the brain
power to put into it yeah So, yeah, that's where
I feel a lot of mine's coming from is just worn
outness. It's all good stuff, but it's not...
It's good stuff. It's also the negative to having
such a jam -packed month is my brain's like,
there's too much, so I'll touch none of it. None
of it, yeah. There's too much. It's too much
money. I fucking don't want to spend all of this,
but I need to and I want to. I'm not going to
do any of it. I don't want to. I wasn't going
to buy Battlefield, believe it or not. Because
I'm dying light. I'm playing fucking... Same
here. Fucking same here. I literally, I had the
conversation with Steph. I sat down with her
and I went through the list of games that are
coming out that I'm interested in. And I said
to her, I said, I can't buy all of these in one
month. I said, I could, but I'm not going to
because that's just irresponsible. So it makes
no sense. So I was like, either way, I said,
I'm playing Battlefield 6. So I said, that can
be a definite. But I was like, there has to be
something else here. I said, I'm already playing
Dying Light. I said, I don't want to be buying
another game. She was like, well, do that then.
She was like, finish Dying Light before you buy
anything else. Because I know full well, if I
buy Ghost of Yotai, Dying Light's getting binned.
I know, I know, I know. Because Dying Light is
the type of game that will get binned. Nothing
against Dying Light, but you're slashing up zombies,
and it's like a fucking 30 -hour campaign, if
that. So that's going to get binned, if anything's
going to get binned. But I don't want to bin
that, because I really enjoy it. Ghost of Yotai
gets sacked off. What I need to do is I need
to get it fucking done before Outer Worlds 2
because everything will be getting sacked off
for that. Oh, I fucking hate it. I hate it. But
then that's why I bought Battlefield because
I'm like, well, I can always just jump on and
shoot some shit and turn it off. There's no...
When I'm dying, I feel like I have to concentrate
a bit and understand the story and what's going
on. That's what I feel like and then I'm like,
if I'm on my own and then it turns into night
time, suddenly I'm playing a horror. Yeah, it's
scary. And I don't want to do that. I don't want
to do that. I want to hack and slash in the day.
Let me have a setting that prevents it from turning
into nighttime. I'll tell you what does fucking
scare me is just the random people's microphones
coming into my game out of nowhere. Yeah, I've
turned the lobby into private. I turn that off.
Do I have to do it every time? I don't know because
I haven't been back on since I turned it on.
Because I turned it on private and then I was
on the other day and then before the message
popped up saying such and such has sent an SOS,
I just heard some kid screaming, I'm the daddy
man! I was like, what the fuck is that? And I
just see the little voice thing at the top. It's
painful. What's going on? I was finishing a mission.
It was night time outside. It had just switched
over to night and I knew I was miles away from
base. But I was in this building. Where the next
objective, it was like, open the doors and exit.
I was like, fuck, am I doing that? I'm going
to stand right here and I'm going to wait. I'm
going to fuck it. And I pottled about and went
and did other stuff, right? I come back. Some
fucker had joined the lobby. They joined the
lobby and opened the doors. Fuming. Fucking fuming.
Luckily, I was fine. Booted them straight out,
closed the doors and then off we go. Like, carry
on. Do you know how to check the time? Yeah.
Because I only found that out the other day.
Oh, the old touchpad. Yeah, well, I thought you'd
be able to look at your watch or something. It'd
be much cooler, but whatever. What? Can you look
at your watch? What have you been doing? Just
pressing the start button or the touchpad and
it comes up in the top left. No, you look at
your watch, mate. How? Hold the touchpad. Oh,
I didn't know that. Yeah. I did think, why am
I not looking at the watch? Because the watch
is cool. If you hold the touchpad, you bring
your watch out and you can look at it. Oh, I
didn't know that. Yeah. So, yeah, we press the
touchpad where it comes up with your inventory
and journal. In the top left, it says... 18,
60, three hours till nightfall. Hold the touchpad.
I will be now, yeah. Then you can see what's
going on. Did they explain that? I don't remember
that. No, they don't explain that. You want to
know why they don't explain that? Because I had
to Google it as well. Because I saw a clip of
someone climbing up a scale in a wall and they
looked at their watch. I went, where the fuck
are they doing? I said, how have they done that?
Because I was like, I swear they used to be in
every dying light you've been able to look at
your watch. to see the time. Well, he does it
in a cut scene. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I was like,
so I just assumed eventually they'd be like,
oh, by the way, you can look at your watch. Yeah,
no, they don't explain it. Well, that's cool
then. I'll be giving that a go. Yeah, hold the
touchpad down and it goes, and then fucking gets
rid of it. Do you reckon we're going to get into
Battlefield tonight? I reckon the queues are
going to be mad. You know, they don't come out
till four o 'clock. It's ridiculous. Why do they
do that? Well, the game don't come out till four.
No, no. Really? Yeah, I downloaded it yesterday.
And it says 20 hours until... Well, mine still
needs to turn up. Mine ain't even fucking here
yet, which is annoying as shit. Let me check
that, actually. Where have you bought it from?
Amazon. I bought it from Amazon, but for some
reason it's being sent by Royal Mail, and Royal
Mail have fucked up. They go, sorry, your parcel
from Amazon needed to be rerouted. Brilliant.
Yeah, nice. Probably because of that fucking
road shut cunting thing. Six weeks that shut.
It's a fucker. Tell me about it. It's a fucker.
I was perturbed. Tracking history. So at two
in the morning, Amazon sent the parcel. And then
at, wow, at 20 to three in the morning, it was
received. And then at half nine this morning,
it got sent to the wrong fucking place. The wrong
depot. And then I just got an email saying, oh,
it's been... I guarantee that, sorry, your item
was sent to such and such, S -P -D -O, in error,
so we rerouted it immediately. More information
will be available as it travels through our network.
I'm not getting that today. Doesn't sound like
it. I can guarantee you now, that's coming by,
Royal, it's 10 to 4 now, Royal Mail ain't popping
up at 10 to 4 to give me a fucking parcel, are
they? I doubt it. So I'll be complaining. I would,
I'd complain, I'd buy it online. cancel the Amazon,
get your money back, complain, get a voucher
and still have the game. Yeah, what I'm probably
going to do is something similar where the game's
going to turn up and I'm going to get onto Amazon
and I'm going to go, didn't show up. Game didn't
show up, mate. So I'll have a refund, please.
Or I'll have another fucking version and I'll
sell it. Don't admit to your crimes on the airwaves.
Dirty cunts. You shouldn't admit to your crimes
on the airwaves, man. I think I'm pretty sure
I did last episode. You shouldn't do that. Well,
we'll get over it. Yeah. Do you know, is there
a specific class? No idea. I know nothing about
Battlefield. I played the beta. What do you mean
you know nothing about it? No, I know nothing
about this new one. Other than I played the beta
and I just stuck with Assault, I think I was
just running about. So I don't know. I'm pretty
sure in this one you can use all guns in all
classes or something, which I don't know how
I feel about. Yeah. you can mix and match everything
around see that kind of takes away the point
of you should be hamstrung in certain classes
you shouldn't be able to use anything there's
a game mode where you are yeah but I just want
it to be in the normal game because I only play
the normal shit but yeah nevertheless whatever
I'm going to rock the M4 and whenever I play
a game like this I always just go bog standard
which is normally just a salt in it But I might
fuck about with engineer because I like blowing
tanks up and shit. So if they get anything that's
more like anti -tank. They do. RPGs. That sounds
like anti -tank. I'll probably fuck about with
that then. Because I like being the geezer. Because
that stuff you can't move around. So the main
weapons and the secondary you can. But yeah,
all the tactical gear and all that shit. As far
as I'm aware from the beta, you can't move any
of that around. So I'll be playing a medic. yeah
i know i'll be i love that shit because if i
can't kill people with weapons which i've as
i discovered in the beta i'm quite shit at now
i'm sure as hell gonna run around and fucking
do the objective and revive people because i
also get so pissed off by people playing a medic
save me and they just run past you it's your
job this is your job you're not an assault you're
not an engineer you're not a recon save me i
did enjoy the sniping i might have a little bit
of that as well i did enjoy that i'm just excited
man it looked it it felt and played like old
battlefield and it was good and i might like
see all the maps and I don't know what the fuck
Black Ops 7's going to do. Oh, mate, it looks
disgusting. It looks like a fucking teenager's
fever dream, doesn't it? It looks terrible, doesn't
it? It's fucking all colourful and shit, bro.
I'm like, what is going on? This looks dead,
bro. They're fucked up, man. They announced loads
of shit yesterday. Oh, there's no skill -based
matchmaking anymore. None of this shit happens
without Battlefield taking over because they're
scared now. They're running for the hills trying
to change everything because they know they're...
Fucked. I don't think they will recover. I hope
not. They need to learn their lesson, man. They
really do. Because they've been going downward
spiral for a long time. It's about time they...
Because this is why competition is good, isn't
it? They had the old fucking Fortnite influence,
didn't they? Get skins in all the fucking weird
shit. Why is Beavis and Butthead in here? What
is going on? What the fuck is happening here?
You've completely lost your way. And then boom,
here comes Battlefield 6 with Raw. Did you see
the trailer they did? Oh, it was so funny, wasn't
it? Which one? With all the celebrities of Battlefield
6. Yeah, where they took the piss. Yeah, just
blew them up. Because I saw that and I hadn't
heard or seen nothing of it. And I was like...
why have they got Paddy Pimlin? I was like, they
are doing exactly what they said they weren't
going to do. So when they blew him up, I was
like, expecting them to like walk through the
smoke. And I was like, who are them guys? I don't
know. Anyway, objective B or whatever. I was
like, yeah, that is a fucking fuck you to cod,
isn't it? And I loved that. I rated that highly.
That made me laugh. Oh yeah, I'm gassed, man.
I like Battlefield mainly just because, or just
any shooting game in that respect, is that it
doesn't require any thought I can just turn it
on put my headphones on and just shoot some people
if I'm having fun I'll carry on playing if I'm
not I'll turn it off and there's no there's no
harm no foul you know and it's I think where
it's where it's objective based makes it seem
like I just said if you're having a bad game
which will be me and you can't get the kills,
you're struggling, blah, blah, blah. You can
always just go and fucking do the objective.
Mate, just capturing something. If you capture
something on your onesie and there's no one there,
you're all gassed. I did that. I did that. There's
like 180 players on this and I captured that
on my own. Sick, man. It's good feeling. It's
a good game. I'll be so happy to be able to play
it tomorrow when it turns up. Fucking pathetic.
To be honest, you won't be able to play it at
night anyway. Them queues are going to be divvy,
bro. They are going to be divvy. They've already
tweeted out saying they're making like, They're
making some pre -emptive adjustments or something
to filter queues. I don't know. It's going to
be buggy. It's going to be... No, as long as
it's not as bad as 2014. As long as we can log
in and not play the same map 27 times in a row,
I'll be happy. As long as we can get some variety
going on and some fucking... Some regular updates
and content being thrown into the game, then
I'm all for it. No wingsuits, please. There's
no wingsuits, is there? No. Good. No, there's
none of that shit. It's very grounded in what
you can do. Because they also changed the sliding
as well. they massively massively nerfed it so
i'm pretty sure it makes it useless if you're
using it in a in a slide cancel fucking shoot
kind of way they've like because obviously that
was one of the main things that feedback wise
came from the beta was was people were saying
the movement is is is too quick it's too unbattlefield
it's too call of duty fucking fix that Get rid
of that. The amount of cunts I see that will
slide cancelling around corners and stuff like
that. And I was like, no, no, no, no, no. Do
not start doing that. Get rid of that shit now.
Fucking filter out people that play like that.
Send them to Black Ops 7. It's where they belong.
Rats. Indeed. I agree. Scum. And now we can do
the Patreon. Patreon .com. Yeah. Unfortunately,
Axel won't be there, so you'll miss the best
stuff. So you've got to mention it at the beginning
and the end. Yeah, I mean, look. If you don't
want to spend the fiver, don't spend the fiver.
I'm just saying. There's stuff there. There's
hundreds of hours of stuff. There is hundreds
of hours. There is literally hundreds of hours.
There's what? A hundred and... Let me quickly
look. There is... It's nice and slow. There is
137 episodes. on that Patreon. That's a lot of
stuff for a fiver, isn't it? That's decent. You
spend a fiver, you get access to fucking all
of that. Some are shit. You could listen to them
all in one month and then cancel. Yeah. I won't
lie to you, some of them are a bit poo -poo.
Some of them are. Some of them are rough. Some
of them are absolute gems, but some of them are,
some of them are worth skipping. We won't tell
you which ones. Yeah, you can find them out yourself.
See you later, everyone. Ooroo. Ooroo.
