Give me the money instead even you it was 50p 85 00:06:33,820 --> 00:06:40,200 I'll kid you not my nan sits there and writes probably 150 cards every Christmas and then and then delivers them by post 86 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,480 It's just mental and it's depressing someone hands you a card 87 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,120 You know, there's money in it if I'm shaking that and there's nothing moving. I'm not interested 88 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:51,360 I might as well just love it in the bin. So that happens be careful. Yeah is if I open the card 89 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:59,000 Yeah, it's nice. I've got to sit there and pretend that it's lovely or if it's one of them cars where it literally says to Reese from 90 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,480 Stanley right where you put no effort in it fucking waste of time for both us still got to sit there and go 91 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,560 Thank you so much. Even though we both know that that cards going in the bin 92 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:13,320 Straight away that awkward thing when you open the card and like a tenner falls out and you don't look at 93 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:17,680 Yeah, you just look at their face. You're just focused on the right. Oh my god. What's this? Oh my god 94 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,680 There was a tenner in there. Oh, wow 95 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,920 And you didn't get me a present. So thank you for the money 96 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:30,120 There's a couple of cards.

I 122 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,120 Don't know what this guy's on about. It's something to do with Star Wars 123 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:28,240 I won't sit here and rinse him and pretend that he's a like, you know, I mean take the piss because I 124 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:34,000 Empathize with him, but I don't understand what's going on. Well, it hurts Knights the Old Republic has been 125 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:41,380 Delayed slash cancelled. So there's a is a little report Jason Shrier leaked this the 126 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,440 Prolific leaker that I've said before he's very reliable 127 00:09:45,560 --> 00:09:47,680 Doesn't tend to get anything right to be honest with you 128 00:09:47,680 --> 00:09:51,840 I can't remember him getting a single thing wrong, which is even more concerning because if there is one time 129 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,840 I wish he was wrong. It's right now 130 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,160 please 131 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,000 This is on games radar comm 132 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:05,480 Star Wars Knights the Old Republic remake delayed indefinitely report says I know not another remake 133 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,120 Yeah, but it's not 134 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,820 Start it's not a remaster. It's a remake from the ground up. Is it the delay? 135 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,560 Reportedly comes from a disappointing demo and studio firings 136 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,880 Fireings firings have been they've been sacked off breath 137 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:26,780 The Star Wars not see old republic remake is reportedly in serious trouble and has been delayed indefinitely 138 00:10:27,220 --> 00:10:29,220 It doesn't sound good. Does it? 139 00:10:29,500 --> 00:10:35,180 No, it doesn't I should quote and unquote so people know is me talking and not do you know I mean I 140 00:10:36,100 --> 00:10:43,160 Quote that's according to a new report from Bloomberg speaking to people familiar with the ongoing development of the remake at aspire media 141 00:10:43,820 --> 00:10:50,300 Throughout July according to the report studio heads have been meeting with employees to inform them that the Knights the Old Republic remake is 142 00:10:50,300 --> 00:10:56,820 Effectively on hold this is reportedly so that studio can search for new contracts and development opportunities 143 00:10:57,340 --> 00:11:02,500 Unquote they've run out of money. It doesn't sound great quote in late June aspire media 144 00:11:02,700 --> 00:11:08,700 Reportedly presented Sony and Lucasfilm with a vertical slice of the remake to represent their vision of the final project 145 00:11:09,060 --> 00:11:16,620 In the meetings the following month studio heads told employees that the vertical slice wasn't where they wanted it to be and that 146 00:11:16,860 --> 00:11:18,860 two studio heads design 147 00:11:18,860 --> 00:11:25,780 Director Brad Prince up the princes and art director Jason Miner had both been fired from the company 148 00:11:26,460 --> 00:11:31,860 Ultimately the fate of the Knights the Old Republic remake remains unclear according to the new report 149 00:11:32,140 --> 00:11:36,540 It's claimed that aspire media originally wanted to release the remake announced in September 150 00:11:36,780 --> 00:11:38,780 2021 by the end of 2022 151 00:11:39,540 --> 00:11:45,740 Employees speaking as part of the report now believe that a more realistic release window is at some point in 152 00:11:46,500 --> 00:11:48,500 2025 153 00:11:48,500 --> 00:11:49,780 25 154 00:11:49,780 --> 00:11:56,980 That's not happening. Is it there's also a belief that developer saber who was collaborating with aspire media on the remake project now might take 155 00:11:56,980 --> 00:12:02,100 Over the game completely the Star Wars Knights the Old Republic remakes still slated to be a ps5 console launch 156 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:07,780 Exclusive, but we'll have to wait and see any further details about its ongoing development troubles 157 00:12:08,540 --> 00:12:12,560 Unquote that doesn't sound very good. The problem is 158 00:12:13,380 --> 00:12:16,920 So they've been working on it for quite I think three years 159 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:23,500 I see they've been working on this they announced in September. I jumped off the sofa when it when it when it was announced I was 160 00:12:24,580 --> 00:12:26,580 pretty excited 161 00:12:26,660 --> 00:12:33,280 But I knew this was coming because when you want when you want nice things and you in your hopes and things 162 00:12:33,900 --> 00:12:38,620 It never happens. You know, you can't have nice things in this world. So there you go 163 00:12:39,020 --> 00:12:42,540 But when they they're presenting their vertical slice 164 00:12:42,540 --> 00:12:46,740 You know which I you know, I'm not a developer, but I would imagine that would be 165 00:12:47,460 --> 00:12:50,300 You know a bit from the beginning a bit from the middle a bit from the end 166 00:12:50,300 --> 00:12:54,020 Here's a vertical slice of the game going all the way through have a look see what you like 167 00:12:55,020 --> 00:12:58,540 And they basically said what the fuck is this? No good 168 00:12:58,540 --> 00:13:03,980 No, but they they're claiming that it was good and they were very excited about presenting it 169 00:13:03,980 --> 00:13:09,020 So I'd love to know what it was that made them go. What what is yeah, obviously wasn't good 170 00:13:09,020 --> 00:13:11,180 If they've gone and sacked everyone well 171 00:13:11,180 --> 00:13:16,580 They haven't sucked everybody they've sucked a couple of people but I'm not being funny if they're bringing in another developer Sabre 172 00:13:16,580 --> 00:13:22,580 It seems to me that they're just gonna be restarting it from scratch if it even gets restarted 173 00:13:22,580 --> 00:13:28,980 But this game people have been crying out for the Kotor remake since I can remember it's you know 174 00:13:28,980 --> 00:13:32,940 It's one of the pioneers of RPGs is probably the biggest 175 00:13:33,540 --> 00:13:37,300 RPG to ever be made if you if you look into RPGs 176 00:13:37,300 --> 00:13:41,340 As a whole a lot of this would have stemmed from Kotor 177 00:13:41,340 --> 00:13:49,260 Which was made by Bioware in their in their prime we're talking Kotor 1 then Kotor 2 got made by Obsidian 178 00:13:49,260 --> 00:13:51,260 I believe 179 00:13:51,260 --> 00:13:55,260 But we're talking like Bioware at the peak of their powers 180 00:13:55,260 --> 00:13:58,260 Nights of the old I'm sorry. I'm just having a look to 181 00:13:59,180 --> 00:14:02,820 Before I start talking I want to be a little bit more 182 00:14:02,820 --> 00:14:07,580 Informed about what I'm looking at. Hmm. What am I looking at? 183 00:14:07,580 --> 00:14:10,980 What am I looking at? I'm so confused with the start with the Star Wars 184 00:14:10,980 --> 00:14:16,420 Right, so you're confused because there's Star Wars Nights of the Old Republic also known as Kotor 185 00:14:16,420 --> 00:14:22,540 But there's also the online MMO, which we were playing. Yeah, which is called Nights of the Old Republic 186 00:14:22,540 --> 00:14:26,500 I think right. So so right. Okay, so 187 00:14:27,500 --> 00:14:28,940 They're completely different 188 00:14:28,940 --> 00:14:34,260 Right. I have reason see I never played Kotor before 189 00:14:34,260 --> 00:14:36,260 Okay, and 190 00:14:37,300 --> 00:14:43,100 So is it not an MMO? No, it's like Mass Effect. It's like an RPG choices dialogue 191 00:14:43,100 --> 00:14:47,780 Combat I say turn based with a party of people. I understand 192 00:14:47,780 --> 00:14:51,900 Okay, you know your classic Bioware your classic Mass Effect Dragon Age that sort of stuff 193 00:14:51,900 --> 00:14:53,900 I get you I get you 194 00:14:53,900 --> 00:14:59,020 And I never really played it but I'd heard so many good things, but I thought you know 195 00:14:59,020 --> 00:15:05,060 It's old now. It's old. I think it came out on the Xbox the original Xbox possibly 196 00:15:05,060 --> 00:15:07,060 and possibly Xbox 360 197 00:15:07,060 --> 00:15:10,300 I think it might be the original Xbox. Anyway, I digress the 198 00:15:10,940 --> 00:15:16,580 The game looks old. It looks janky and I was like, I don't want because I know it's coming out on VS 199 00:15:16,580 --> 00:15:19,100 5 I don't want to ruin the experience by playing something 200 00:15:19,100 --> 00:15:24,100 It's been ruined for you now. No, but then it came out on switch 201 00:15:24,100 --> 00:15:26,220 It wasn't remade. It was like a port 202 00:15:26,220 --> 00:15:30,100 But it was a pretty good port and I was like, you know what? I'm gonna crack on so I'm gonna get this 203 00:15:30,100 --> 00:15:33,220 I'm gonna smash through it and then when the new one comes out 204 00:15:33,220 --> 00:15:37,780 I've got something to compare it to you know, I mean, so I'll know how quirky the old things was 205 00:15:37,780 --> 00:15:41,420 Etc etc. And I loved it on the switch. It was absolutely 206 00:15:41,420 --> 00:15:43,900 10 out of 10 and this game is absolutely 207 00:15:43,900 --> 00:15:49,300 Old as balls. I mean, you know when you're running through like barren worlds and you're like 208 00:15:49,300 --> 00:15:54,300 This is what yeah, nothing going on here. Yeah, but despite that the story itself was 209 00:15:55,020 --> 00:15:58,940 Fascinating. I mean the big twist in it. I obviously won't spoil it for anyone 210 00:16:00,220 --> 00:16:02,220 It was very very obvious 211 00:16:02,220 --> 00:16:06,300 But at the time when this came came out that twist wouldn't have been used that much 212 00:16:06,300 --> 00:16:08,300 So it would have been quite shocking 213 00:16:08,300 --> 00:16:14,100 So I put myself in the mindset of playing this back in I don't know whenever this came out 2000 and 214 00:16:14,500 --> 00:16:20,380 10 I don't know probably a lot earlier than that. So yeah, I put myself on that self in that mindset and 215 00:16:20,900 --> 00:16:26,100 Yeah, what what a fantastic game? So I was super excited for the the ps5 version 216 00:16:26,100 --> 00:16:29,100 And I know a lot of people were and yeah, just a little bit 217 00:16:29,100 --> 00:16:33,900 It's a little bit heartbreaking to see this because not only has it been 10 years since the last one 218 00:16:33,900 --> 00:16:41,940 It's a little bit. It's a little bit heartbreaking to see this because not only has it been delayed indefinitely that to me that just screams 219 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:46,060 cancellation and I've read a lot of things this week on it and 220 00:16:46,380 --> 00:16:53,260 Yeah, that is the vibe we're getting that if it does restart it will be restarted from scratch which puts it 221 00:16:53,260 --> 00:17:01,780 You know, you're probably gonna get fallout 5 by the time this comes out if it ever does and as a huge Star Wars fan 222 00:17:01,780 --> 00:17:05,740 This upsets me fuck off Center Park's email me every day 223 00:17:06,340 --> 00:17:09,860 I'm already coming back bugger off. Yeah 224 00:17:10,540 --> 00:17:16,260 Bugger off. Oh, well, they want don't know they just keep going. I want more of your money. Yeah, you're right 225 00:17:16,260 --> 00:17:21,060 Ash you won't come back. Yeah, we know you've paid for a room, but the toilet paper isn't included 226 00:17:21,060 --> 00:17:25,140 So when you turn up we'll charge you 20 quid per sheet because that's what we do 227 00:17:25,140 --> 00:17:28,500 You don't throw that much shade at Center Park. It's all right. It's not as though 228 00:17:28,500 --> 00:17:33,860 It's not as though haven't been you've never been the world. I was meant to go but we won't get into that drama 229 00:17:33,860 --> 00:17:35,860 What I will ask those number one 230 00:17:35,900 --> 00:17:40,220 Why does it have to be a remake of all the things in the Star Wars universe? 231 00:17:40,740 --> 00:17:45,980 Story wise I'm not slating the game at all. Let's not get this twisted. I'm not about to sit here and rip the game apart 232 00:17:45,980 --> 00:17:48,260 I haven't even fucking played it. So I sort of can't 233 00:17:48,940 --> 00:17:51,700 I'm learning I'm developing I'm growing myself 234 00:17:51,700 --> 00:17:57,420 So why a remake number one of all the things that you could do with Star Wars 235 00:17:57,420 --> 00:18:05,420 Why why not just fucking do some do you got the bases do something else? You know, I mean and then to if 236 00:18:06,420 --> 00:18:12,660 Money was becoming an issue, which I have no doubt. It probably was why not do a bit of crowdfunding 237 00:18:13,380 --> 00:18:16,900 People go mental you if they turn around and said look Ash 238 00:18:16,900 --> 00:18:22,620 Give us 20 quid and when this game comes out we would I don't know 239 00:18:23,500 --> 00:18:25,500 Give you something 240 00:18:26,500 --> 00:18:30,900 Don't know we fought this fruit. We'll give you we'll give you a lightsaber of of 241 00:18:32,180 --> 00:18:37,500 Fucking know lightsaber. You say a 50 quid they give you something. They'll give you something right? 242 00:18:38,020 --> 00:18:42,660 You're you would you would give them the money wouldn't you? Yeah, of course. Of course you would and I think 243 00:18:43,620 --> 00:18:45,620 Everyone had a 244 00:18:45,620 --> 00:18:49,340 Everyone who loves Star Wars would do the same so 245 00:18:50,300 --> 00:18:53,860 What's the fucking remake and I think stop it? 246 00:18:53,860 --> 00:18:58,980 I think this is an interesting decision in the first place to be given a spire 247 00:18:59,820 --> 00:19:00,860 the 248 00:19:00,860 --> 00:19:06,100 Nice the old Republic remake gig because a spire are only really known for porting games. They're not known for 249 00:19:07,100 --> 00:19:14,260 Remaking games when you think of remaking I'm instantly thinking a lot blue point blue point being the remake 250 00:19:14,260 --> 00:19:18,820 Remakers, I guess. Mmm. Resident Evil 2. Mmm. Resident Evil 3 251 00:19:20,740 --> 00:19:24,580 Demon souls, you know just a couple off the top of my head and they're like 252 00:19:25,820 --> 00:19:31,220 Top quality. Yeah, you know amazing. So when the spy I was already a little bit like 253 00:19:32,060 --> 00:19:34,980 I give them give them some faith. I mean 254 00:19:35,700 --> 00:19:39,260 Spire we're doing all right. They're doing Mass Effect and Dragon Age. So maybe they're a bit busy 255 00:19:39,260 --> 00:19:43,780 But yeah, I mmm the reason they're remaking this is 256 00:19:44,300 --> 00:19:49,100 As I've just said is if you talk to anyone about RPGs 257 00:19:49,900 --> 00:19:51,900 anyone of my age 258 00:19:52,140 --> 00:19:57,580 Not that I played it back then but this is like, you know, one of the starting points for proper 259 00:19:58,140 --> 00:20:02,340 You know, this is where this is where Mass Effect and that stem from in Dragon Age 260 00:20:02,340 --> 00:20:05,900 This is where these these games come from. This is the foundations is 261 00:20:05,900 --> 00:20:11,740 Is the calm to remake this would bring a whole new sluice of fans come through the doors? 262 00:20:11,740 --> 00:20:16,180 Do you know what I mean? This this would be incredible for people that have never experienced it 263 00:20:16,180 --> 00:20:23,260 Especially how many new Star Wars fans there are yeah, and the Old Republic is not really a very explored 264 00:20:24,740 --> 00:20:27,220 Time period in Star Wars media 265 00:20:27,940 --> 00:20:33,820 Because the old public is long before the Star Wars films that you would have watched long long long before them is 266 00:20:33,820 --> 00:20:36,300 It's essentially the founding of the Jedi 267 00:20:37,060 --> 00:20:40,420 and the original Republic and stuff like that 268 00:20:40,420 --> 00:20:44,460 So this is long before your Darth Vader's and your Luke Skywalker's 269 00:20:44,980 --> 00:20:50,700 So it's like a whole history of Star Wars that they can explore and you you're looking at Resident Evil 2 and 3 270 00:20:51,420 --> 00:20:58,500 Things like that if this does well more than they could remake Kotor 2 and then if that also sells well 271 00:20:58,500 --> 00:21:04,500 Kotor 3 is you know, it's their game to make whatever they like I can understand it's never been made 272 00:21:04,500 --> 00:21:08,660 So they can just create what they want and that history that hasn't been explored 273 00:21:08,660 --> 00:21:11,780 They basically got a free rein to write whatever story they want 274 00:21:11,780 --> 00:21:15,140 But it won't happen will it because it'll get to 2024 and they'll go yeah 275 00:21:15,140 --> 00:21:20,100 We actually haven't been doing anything with this game. We just said that to keep everyone quiet. It's not gonna happen 276 00:21:20,100 --> 00:21:25,940 I can understand why they said 2025 because I feel like with the amount of games where 277 00:21:25,940 --> 00:21:29,300 How many games get fucking delayed every game gets delayed? 278 00:21:29,780 --> 00:21:36,100 If you're looking forward to any game, it's gonna get delayed unless it's FIFA because no thought or effort goes into that being made 279 00:21:36,100 --> 00:21:41,380 That is literally just a carbon copy of the one before it who hurt you did someone kick footballs at you and you're what it is 280 00:21:41,380 --> 00:21:46,740 Right as I used to love FIFA and then when secondary school started all the people that used to bully me for being a nerd 281 00:21:46,740 --> 00:21:49,300 Were the people that played FIFA and it stuck with me 282 00:21:49,300 --> 00:21:52,340 So if you play FIFA, you're a bit of a dickhead in my eyes 283 00:21:52,340 --> 00:21:57,700 You're just one of those types of people until I get to know you and then then you're probably a sound person 284 00:21:57,700 --> 00:22:02,260 But before that point it's because I was bullied in school by the people that played FIFA 285 00:22:02,820 --> 00:22:08,340 So fuck him. Fuck FIFA. Fuck mark. Let's bring that one back. Yeah, fuck him 286 00:22:09,620 --> 00:22:14,500 Would it help if I took you outside and we played Wembley? I just think I just think it is and volleys 287 00:22:14,500 --> 00:22:16,980 But I like I'm whack. I like playing football 288 00:22:16,980 --> 00:22:20,740 This is the thing though three and in and I probably would like to play FIFA 289 00:22:20,740 --> 00:22:26,100 Three and in and I probably would like playing the games, but I just oh they were so mean to me ash 290 00:22:26,100 --> 00:22:28,500 So if you're listening, I won't start naming names 291 00:22:28,500 --> 00:22:31,940 Maybe next episode when I get really annoyed about it if you're listening 292 00:22:32,340 --> 00:22:38,660 Which you probably aren't if you are you know who you are. You can go fuck yourself. Don't kick footballs at people. It's not very nice 293 00:22:40,580 --> 00:22:44,660 I've completely forgot what I was going on about. I just don't go. That was it. That was another 294 00:22:45,300 --> 00:22:47,300 2025 because 295 00:22:47,300 --> 00:22:51,140 What happens a game has a release date say I don't know 296 00:22:51,700 --> 00:22:58,340 Fucking December of this year and then maybe in October that whatever developer goes. Oh, well 297 00:22:58,900 --> 00:23:00,900 We've actually got to delay it 298 00:23:01,380 --> 00:23:05,540 And then they end up getting death threats because of it like with cyberpunk and then look what happens 299 00:23:05,540 --> 00:23:10,420 They release a game that's not even fucking finished because people are threatened to let a bomb the developers 300 00:23:10,740 --> 00:23:11,060 All right 301 00:23:11,060 --> 00:23:16,020 So I can understand why they would go with something like 2025 because that gives you enough of a scope to really 302 00:23:16,020 --> 00:23:19,380 Try and sort something out. I just don't think it's gonna happen 303 00:23:20,020 --> 00:23:24,020 You know, I just like to see me suffer. You just happy that I am not going to be happy 304 00:23:24,020 --> 00:23:30,980 No, I don't want to see you suffer at all. Yes, you are. I just I just don't think that it's gonna happen because 305 00:23:33,140 --> 00:23:35,140 It hasn't happened already 306 00:23:35,140 --> 00:23:41,780 But it has been happening. They've been working on it for three years and they announced it and something has happened 307 00:23:41,780 --> 00:23:43,780 We don't know exactly what? 308 00:23:43,780 --> 00:23:48,180 from what I heard originally it was that they spent a lot of 309 00:23:48,900 --> 00:23:51,300 money and resources and time 310 00:23:52,740 --> 00:23:55,540 On the game, but they hadn't progressed far enough 311 00:23:55,540 --> 00:23:59,780 So what they'd spent on say, I don't know how much a quarter of the game 312 00:23:59,780 --> 00:24:06,420 Then them standards need to be kept up for the other three quarters. Do you understand? Maybe so their their projection was 313 00:24:06,740 --> 00:24:12,020 Originally 2022 but the people that they're showing the game to are like nah 314 00:24:12,020 --> 00:24:17,860 This ain't coming out for 2025. We can't afford to sustain that for another three years 315 00:24:18,580 --> 00:24:20,980 We're gonna have to delay slash cancel 316 00:24:21,620 --> 00:24:23,620 Indefinitely, whatever it may be 317 00:24:24,180 --> 00:24:28,500 And and go from there, but I don't think the work per se from what I can understand 318 00:24:28,500 --> 00:24:33,300 I don't think the work itself was bad. I just think they put so much resources in early doors 319 00:24:33,940 --> 00:24:40,660 They're not gonna hit the window that investors want therefore. They're gonna have to be taken off that'll probably be what it is 320 00:24:40,660 --> 00:24:44,100 You've got you got the people that are remaking this game are 321 00:24:44,980 --> 00:24:46,980 die hard star wars fans 322 00:24:46,980 --> 00:24:50,500 They're in the videos. They're very passionate. Yeah, they they want to give it the 323 00:24:51,060 --> 00:24:54,260 Best crack that they can so they will put the effort into it 324 00:24:54,260 --> 00:24:56,660 And then yeah when it comes to investors and the people who are 325 00:24:57,140 --> 00:25:01,460 Giving you the money to do that. They probably don't even give a fuck about star wars 326 00:25:01,460 --> 00:25:05,140 They've just seen the money they can make off of it. So when it comes to 327 00:25:06,020 --> 00:25:09,060 It being released and it's in its development 328 00:25:09,060 --> 00:25:15,220 They probably don't one care or understand that the people that are making that game actually 329 00:25:15,780 --> 00:25:19,540 Want to put as much effort in as possible because they know what it means to the fans that are going to play it 330 00:25:20,100 --> 00:25:23,620 So yeah investors have probably looked at that and I agree with you have probably gone 331 00:25:24,180 --> 00:25:26,180 You ain't as far as you need to be sir 332 00:25:26,980 --> 00:25:28,980 Fuck off and we'll get someone else in 333 00:25:30,020 --> 00:25:36,260 Maybe greed there could be many answers and i'm sure the truth will out and i'll be interested to know 334 00:25:36,260 --> 00:25:41,860 Fingers crossed something good comes from it because it's such a shame. It's a massive massive 335 00:25:42,500 --> 00:25:44,180 humongous ip 336 00:25:44,180 --> 00:25:50,020 To to just bin and can especially after putting three years of work in and I feel for the developers that have 337 00:25:50,340 --> 00:25:56,100 Put their time and effort into making three years worth of stuff to essentially just be like well for nothing 338 00:25:56,100 --> 00:25:59,380 This might end up being nothing now. Yeah, and and that's heartbreaking 339 00:25:59,380 --> 00:26:01,620 Especially when you put your heart and soul into it 340 00:26:01,620 --> 00:26:05,700 So yeah, I feel for them fingers crossed everybody's got the money to do that 341 00:26:05,700 --> 00:26:08,740 everybody's all right and uh, we get something in the end of it, but 342 00:26:09,620 --> 00:26:11,620 Coming from a heartbreak for me 343 00:26:12,180 --> 00:26:13,300 um 344 00:26:13,300 --> 00:26:18,340 Not necessarily a heartbreak for you. It's not a heartbreak at all as a huge lord of the rings fan 345 00:26:19,140 --> 00:26:20,820 It looked wank 346 00:26:20,820 --> 00:26:23,460 Gollum's been delayed surprise surprise. I think 347 00:26:24,180 --> 00:26:30,180 They released that little that gameplay trailer was fucking awful, would it? 348 00:26:30,180 --> 00:26:35,540 It was shite. Well, it weren't for me, but then you say that but 349 00:26:35,860 --> 00:26:37,860 Correct me if i'm wrong. Mm-hmm 350 00:26:38,340 --> 00:26:41,860 Was you not enjoying stray that you've just been playing? Yeah 351 00:26:43,060 --> 00:26:49,140 Is there much difference in straying gollum? It's just a little bit of wandering about sneaking about difference. What's the difference? 352 00:26:49,780 --> 00:26:51,140 well 353 00:26:51,140 --> 00:26:53,140 stray is is 354 00:26:53,220 --> 00:26:55,940 It's nothing like gollum for a start and it wasn't 355 00:26:55,940 --> 00:27:01,620 I'm not talking about the the don't get confused style. I'm talking about the gameplay because we're shitting on it for saying 356 00:27:01,620 --> 00:27:03,620 It looks a bit boring looks a bit bland 357 00:27:03,620 --> 00:27:10,340 But then essentially from what i've seen of stray people only really are like ice is great because you're a cat 358 00:27:10,660 --> 00:27:15,300 Other than the fact you're a fucking cat. It's good fun. It's yeah because you're a cat if you like cats 359 00:27:15,300 --> 00:27:18,900 You're gonna like stray. Yeah. Yeah, that's what i'm saying. So correct me if i'm wrong 360 00:27:18,900 --> 00:27:25,140 Was stray not the same as gollum in terms of the gameplay you just no 361 00:27:26,500 --> 00:27:32,980 You're just sneaking about no, you're not doing nothing. You haven't played stray. No, i'm saying i've seen people rave about it 362 00:27:33,060 --> 00:27:38,580 I've watched people play and i'm like, yes, you're a cat. Yes. Yes, you can meow. Yes. Yes, you can knock off plant pots 363 00:27:38,580 --> 00:27:45,380 Yes, that's fucking it. So what is the no, there's a story there as well. What what the issue is stroke? Yeah 364 00:27:45,380 --> 00:27:53,060 Hi, hello. No cat cat meow meow meow. Shut up. No, let me speak. It's rubbish. It's a bad game about cat 365 00:27:53,220 --> 00:27:59,220 Listen, i'm not shitting on stray. Although it sounds like it. I'm just trying to i'm just trying to get a comparison game where we 366 00:27:59,780 --> 00:28:05,220 Slash you are saying gollum looked shit. You all i'm seeing is very similar stuff 367 00:28:05,220 --> 00:28:11,540 But you know stray but you don't like the look of gollum lies. You're a wet lettuce. You saw the gameplay trailer 368 00:28:11,780 --> 00:28:13,300 Yeah of gollum 369 00:28:13,300 --> 00:28:19,060 Did you like it? Did it look good other than other than the the scenery did that gameplay look good? 370 00:28:19,220 --> 00:28:21,220 Did they show anything decent? 371 00:28:21,300 --> 00:28:26,500 No, they didn't it looked janky for for the money that's behind it 372 00:28:27,540 --> 00:28:32,580 And consider you're comparing gollum to a cat. You might as well be comparing him to a snail 373 00:28:32,580 --> 00:28:38,340 They're two completely different things a cat can only do very very little meow and lick its own ass and knock fucking plant pots off 374 00:28:38,340 --> 00:28:43,940 Of whatever whereas gollum is an entire humanoid can do various different things 375 00:28:44,180 --> 00:28:50,820 And we've seen it in the movies and we know what he's capable of rather than just crawling around in the bushes doing fuck all 376 00:28:51,140 --> 00:28:54,660 That's why we weren't impressed with it. And what they've done is they've done 377 00:28:55,300 --> 00:29:00,420 They've listened they've listened to everyone go. What the fuck is this and they come out and they've gone. Oh 378 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:07,220 Apologies everyone. We've had to delay it for technical issues. It's because it looks wank and you know, it looks wank 379 00:29:07,220 --> 00:29:13,460 They've done the right thing. They've listened to us and they've listened to everyone go. What the fuck is this stray is different and plus 380 00:29:14,100 --> 00:29:16,820 Lest we forget stray is only like 20 quid 381 00:29:17,380 --> 00:29:20,580 Whereas gollum you just know if it was released in that state 382 00:29:20,580 --> 00:29:23,940 It's sort of a 50 quid price tag on it may be even higher. So 383 00:29:25,060 --> 00:29:30,980 Stray is is and strays a very short campaign. It's only eight hours. There's a trophy to do it in under two hours 384 00:29:31,940 --> 00:29:33,940 spoilers, yeah, but 385 00:29:33,940 --> 00:29:35,700 It 386 00:29:35,700 --> 00:29:41,060 Just wind me up. This is what it is. You wound me up now good. No, you know, I feel I got it in my head that 387 00:29:43,380 --> 00:29:45,380 Fuck off 388 00:29:46,100 --> 00:29:49,060 I'm not being funny though. They've delayed it by a couple of months, correct 389 00:29:49,700 --> 00:29:51,060 Yeah 390 00:29:51,060 --> 00:29:53,060 Yeah a couple of months it's not going to be enough to 391 00:29:53,460 --> 00:29:58,420 To fix what we perceive to be the problems as boring gameplay and nothing going on 392 00:29:58,420 --> 00:30:06,500 Mmm, if you want it to switch the entirety of the gameplay style, they need a year. They didn't show enough a a one minute 393 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:15,140 30 second or something little gameplay trailer. It was not enough. They did not show enough now, whether the the the questions you have is 394 00:30:15,620 --> 00:30:20,660 Did they only do that because that's the only footage they had or did they only show that because they didn't want to show off 395 00:30:20,660 --> 00:30:24,180 Everything else because it could be one or two if it's if it's the latter 396 00:30:24,740 --> 00:30:25,700 then 397 00:30:25,700 --> 00:30:31,780 This could be good. But if they've only shown us in a minute and a half's worth of gameplay because that's all they have 398 00:30:32,340 --> 00:30:35,940 then that's a bit of a shocker, you know, I mean that's that's going to be a bit of a 399 00:30:36,740 --> 00:30:39,940 A bit of a weird one. You know what? I'm not fucking hot for anyway 400 00:30:41,700 --> 00:30:45,220 Yeah, fuck off. We've got no man's sky. What do you want? 401 00:30:45,700 --> 00:30:48,980 From golem if it you say you're not hyped for it, but it's lord of the rings 402 00:30:48,980 --> 00:30:52,420 It's your favorite thing if if they were to go right, you know what? 403 00:30:52,420 --> 00:30:56,020 Fuck this race would you want us to make and it's it's gotta be about golem 404 00:30:56,580 --> 00:30:59,060 What do you want them to do to make you go? Oh, actually, it's good 405 00:30:59,700 --> 00:31:03,860 Because for me golem can't really do a lot anyway, and we discussed this saying he's not the right character 406 00:31:03,940 --> 00:31:07,620 We don't think he's not gonna use the lord of the rings ip and you've got that 407 00:31:08,020 --> 00:31:10,740 You've got that license to to do with as you please 408 00:31:11,540 --> 00:31:13,940 And you've just gone with golem. I feel like I don't know 409 00:31:14,340 --> 00:31:16,580 They're probably going to surprise us and be like actually wow 410 00:31:16,660 --> 00:31:17,860 That was actually very good 411 00:31:17,860 --> 00:31:22,740 I'll tell you what if you're flinging in remakes like everyone is and putting the effort in that you remember the old lord 412 00:31:22,740 --> 00:31:24,740 Of the rings game. I cannot remember what it's called 413 00:31:24,980 --> 00:31:27,940 But I remember playing it lots and lots and lots. You basically got to play all of them 414 00:31:27,940 --> 00:31:30,180 I bet it was called lord of the rings. It probably was 415 00:31:30,740 --> 00:31:32,580 I'm not going to take the time to fucking google it 416 00:31:32,980 --> 00:31:37,640 But i'm sure a lot of people remember that game remake that motherfucker 417 00:31:38,020 --> 00:31:41,700 And then incorporate a little bit of guardians the galaxy style of how that's played 418 00:31:42,580 --> 00:31:44,740 You know, I mean the this golem 419 00:31:45,860 --> 00:31:46,980 game 420 00:31:46,980 --> 00:31:48,100 Who asked for it? 421 00:31:48,100 --> 00:31:51,940 What if they go full mcu on it and they're like right we're going to do a golem game 422 00:31:52,340 --> 00:31:56,820 And then they're going to do an aragorn game and then they're going to do a frodo game 423 00:31:56,820 --> 00:32:01,220 It wouldn't work and they're all going to tie in no because it's it's too much effort just 424 00:32:02,580 --> 00:32:08,100 No one asked for golem and even if people did ask for golem. No one asked for for him 425 00:32:08,820 --> 00:32:13,700 At the end of his transformation you want to see it all if you're going to put it in a game 426 00:32:13,700 --> 00:32:16,900 You want to be able to play as when you're a little hobbit? 427 00:32:16,980 --> 00:32:22,740 Because no one really got to experience that I know it was in the movies. You see blah blah blah spoilers 428 00:32:23,380 --> 00:32:25,060 sorry, um 429 00:32:25,060 --> 00:32:28,820 But you could run with that a little bit and then and then gradually get to our fucking hell 430 00:32:28,820 --> 00:32:33,220 Like i'm golem now now i'm gonna eat fish and fucking pickpocket. Wow 431 00:32:33,620 --> 00:32:34,420 uh 432 00:32:34,420 --> 00:32:36,420 It they just they just shut up 433 00:32:37,300 --> 00:32:40,660 Fucking rambling i'm gonna play it when it comes out. I'll probably love it 434 00:32:40,660 --> 00:32:45,860 But for now i'm just not excited about it at all. I don't even think they'll do pre-orders for it 435 00:32:46,100 --> 00:32:50,820 Of course they will they'll pre-order anything. But what what can they do though? This is what I don't understand about the game 436 00:32:50,900 --> 00:32:52,340 So all I saw 437 00:32:52,340 --> 00:32:59,380 From my recollection is him sneaking around in bushes and and crawling through little holes and doing nothing. Yeah, is there gonna be like what? 438 00:33:00,020 --> 00:33:05,060 It's hard to be so critical when you don't know we don't know what the premise of this game is 439 00:33:05,060 --> 00:33:07,060 What is the story? What? 440 00:33:07,060 --> 00:33:12,100 What do I do when i'm starting out? What is the end obviously they can't tell us all of that because then there's no point 441 00:33:12,100 --> 00:33:16,260 Actually bringing out the game, but they they did not show enough 442 00:33:16,980 --> 00:33:18,740 For people to get hyped about it 443 00:33:18,740 --> 00:33:24,260 They should have and I hope they did expect the backlash that they got because what did they expect? 444 00:33:24,980 --> 00:33:26,740 You know what I mean? What? 445 00:33:26,740 --> 00:33:29,620 What did they want from us? Did they expect us to look at that one minute clip and go? 446 00:33:29,780 --> 00:33:36,020 Fucking hell, that's incredible. I can't wait for that. I don't want anyone to you know, receive backlash over a game trailer 447 00:33:36,020 --> 00:33:40,180 Yeah, you know no one deserves that but it is interesting to know why 448 00:33:40,580 --> 00:33:43,780 No, but you want to excite your fans and no one was excited for it 449 00:33:43,940 --> 00:33:47,780 Right, but maybe they're very pleased with what they've done and from the inside looking out 450 00:33:47,780 --> 00:33:52,980 They might believe that that is going to excite people and you know, unfortunately, I don't think it did 451 00:33:53,700 --> 00:33:56,900 So maybe they have to reevaluate it and don't get me wrong 452 00:33:56,900 --> 00:34:03,380 This is the reason for trailers baiters tests of all kind you you put it out to the public get the feelers and 453 00:34:03,380 --> 00:34:08,740 All right, the feedback weren't fantastic. Let's let's take a look at it and see what else we can do to really 454 00:34:09,620 --> 00:34:10,980 Shake things up a bit 455 00:34:10,980 --> 00:34:15,220 Yeah, and maybe they've done that but if that is the case and and there's a lot to work on then either 456 00:34:15,220 --> 00:34:18,820 I don't believe three months is enough and that might expect another delay 457 00:34:19,540 --> 00:34:22,420 Yeah, probably and um, we won't care 458 00:34:23,220 --> 00:34:27,540 Well, no, I'll probably play when it comes out as well. Oh, yeah, I will play when it comes out 459 00:34:27,540 --> 00:34:31,700 I just I just not I'm not losing sleep over it one thing for sure 460 00:34:31,700 --> 00:34:34,980 They're not going to send us a fucking copy the way we've spoke about it 461 00:34:36,100 --> 00:34:38,020 Fuck them. Yeah, why? 462 00:34:38,020 --> 00:34:40,900 we'll never get a copy of a game to test because 463 00:34:41,860 --> 00:34:43,780 We're not already famous 464 00:34:43,780 --> 00:34:47,700 You only get that shit if you're famous, you know, I mean they don't give it to little developers 465 00:34:47,700 --> 00:34:50,340 I still haven't got my alpha invite from fucking blizzard 466 00:34:51,380 --> 00:34:55,060 You know, I'm at thousands of pounds. They've got for me means fuck all of them 467 00:34:55,620 --> 00:35:00,660 If I had if I had a million followers though, this is false. This is false information false information 468 00:35:00,660 --> 00:35:05,620 It's 100 false information. There's many youtubers out there that I've watched that have got like 469 00:35:06,240 --> 00:35:12,100 1,000 2,000 subscribers and they get codes for games early. Well, we have a thousand downloads. Yeah, all right 470 00:35:12,180 --> 00:35:16,580 Well, that's what i'm saying. You're the one shitting all over it. Not me. Well, you have to apply for these things 471 00:35:16,580 --> 00:35:20,900 They don't just dish them out like candy. You have to go. Well, they do dish out like candy though 472 00:35:21,860 --> 00:35:23,860 Is playstation beta? 473 00:35:25,300 --> 00:35:26,820 I've got five 474 00:35:26,820 --> 00:35:32,740 PlayStation beta updates to give away. Well, he's got four because one of them's coming to me allegedly 475 00:35:32,980 --> 00:35:36,580 So yeah, holler at me on the socials. Yeah, which is 476 00:35:39,060 --> 00:35:43,780 Fucking no, you know what it is. If you're listening to this, you know what the socials are clicked on the link 477 00:35:43,860 --> 00:35:48,180 You know, I mean there's a link tree there. Just use it. Fucking hell. The instagram and the twitter are on there 478 00:35:48,180 --> 00:35:51,060 I'm pretty sure the twitter is at what's the button 479 00:35:51,060 --> 00:35:57,140 I think the is the link only for ps5 and the instagram is at what's the buttons podcast?

I googled it and it says in but maybe in the next two years 505 00:37:55,240 --> 00:37:59,400 Fucking hell, it's been in development for ages. And then even then it's been leaked that 506 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:04,280 That it's it's going to be a sort of bonnie and clied style, which I really like that 507 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,600 I think that's that's that sounds really cool 508 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:07,960 um 509 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,040 You get to play as a woman you get to play as a bloke 510 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:14,840 Sorry for the people that aren't playing as women but that's going to happen. You can just play as is it clied? 511 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:16,840 That's the man in bonnie and clied 512 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:19,400 It is clied in it 513 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:25,320 That one you get yeah, whatever but I I don't like the idea that apparently it's going to be set in miami 514 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:26,200 I think we did the same withMake crowd 515 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:48,520 You got to be in Reeth 516 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:55,960 America. Please don't don't shoot me over it. But just there's all these places that you could 517 00:38:55,960 --> 00:39:01,080 explore. Miami seems like somewhere where it's been done. Yeah, but they're going back to Vice 518 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:05,560 City, aren't they? So of course it's gonna be again, again, not exploring new shit. Let's go 519 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:11,160 back to let's go back to something we've already done. Why don't need tried and tested, tried and 520 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:17,160 tested. It's been in this has been in development for years. You've had plenty of time. I don't know. 521 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:22,520 It's not all about you, you know. Oh, it's just, it will be fantastic when it comes out. I know it 522 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:30,440 will be anyway. I just it's gonna be delays. Female Latina protagonist. My hopes for that 523 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:36,360 is it's not tacked on Latina shit. Of course it will be because I hate if you want to do it, 524 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:40,520 do it properly. We're about to offend and no, no, if you want to do it, do it properly because I 525 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:45,720 know what they do. They just go down the classic tropes of like, uh, you know, what's the, what's 526 00:39:45,720 --> 00:39:52,840 the words that Latina's use like, Hey, hombre, you know, it's like, don't just do that. They've said 527 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:58,600 do proper like translation. So like do proper Latina, get a proper Latina lady in to do our stuff 528 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:04,760 and then have like translation for certain bits. Not all of it. I believe that in what, what this 529 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:12,840 article was saying is that, uh, rock star themselves have decided to go down a different path and 530 00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:19,880 almost reinvent themselves. They've said so themselves that they are known for being the, 531 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:29,000 the basically was it say, uh, playing on, on typical stereotypes and always going for the 532 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:34,760 cheap jokes and, and all that type of shit. And basically they're trying to rebrand themselves 533 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:42,440 and come away from that. So I'm hopeful for GTA six to be like what you just said. They'll put 534 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:48,600 the effort into that, that, that Latino background and, and things like that. I think, I think they'll 535 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:54,280 do it justice. It, they, I think they're, what they're doing is they're getting with the times 536 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:58,280 understanding that they can't just keep doing the same shit that they're doing because eventually 537 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:02,040 they're not going to be able to keep getting away with it. And I think they're modernizing themselves. 538 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:08,600 I don't think they're, I don't think they're going to stop doing everything they do in terms of the, 539 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:15,160 the shit that they make certain characters saying things like that. But I think it, it, it won't be 540 00:41:15,720 --> 00:41:22,520 your typical like GTA five, GTA four style of, I think they will modernize it and it will be quite, 541 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,800 I think it'd be quite good. I wish they'd get away from, from their, 542 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:33,160 their comedy. I'd, I think it ruins it personally. I'd write, I'd like a greater tone. I don't like 543 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:37,880 it's some of it's so eccentric and over the top and silly. It's, and then some of it, some of it 544 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:42,920 suits, but I think a lot of it should be, you know, the premise of the game is, you know, you're 545 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:47,960 shooting your Robin, you're stealing. I'd like a bit of a darker GTA and leave that other shit to 546 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:54,600 Saints row, do all the comedy stuff. Um, but some of it is, yes, it's painfully cringy. 547 00:41:55,080 --> 00:42:02,040 I think that I agree with you. They need to get away from that, that style of comedy, not completely, 548 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:06,600 but I think they need to maybe, maybe try something different, which I believe is, is, is the path that 549 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:10,280 they're going down if they're planning on reinventing themselves. And that's one of the things that 550 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:15,960 they'll have to do. And, and yeah, hopefully think of some different shit to do. I think it's just, 551 00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:21,080 there's too many generic characters in this too many, like stereotypical over the top, 552 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:25,000 eccentric, and you're like, no, I want, you know, you're going to meet a nightclub owner. I mean, 553 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:29,560 he's just like way over the top, silly. Well, no, why don't we go down the grittier road where it's 554 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:36,840 like serious business? Like I know there's, there's a huge market for the funny silliness, but I'm, 555 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:40,120 I'm just a bit bored of that personally. One thing I'm somewhat concerned about is that in 556 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:47,560 this article, it says that, um, what they plan on doing is updating the game as it releases. Now I 557 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:53,880 get a little bit iffy when developers say that type of shit, because to me, it sounds like you're 558 00:42:53,880 --> 00:43:00,680 going to release a game that's not 100% and then add in the other bits to the puzzle later on. Now 559 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:04,760 it can go one or two ways. You can either release a game and it'd be really, really fucking good, 560 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:10,760 but the content will only hold people for a week because they'll blitz through it as they naturally 561 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:19,640 will. And then they'll be bored and it will drop off or they will add a decent amount of content 562 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:24,440 and then update and keep that. You see what I mean? Whereas you had something like Elden Ring, 563 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:29,400 where fucking incredible game, everyone loved it, but there was no new content added. 564 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:37,800 So people sure enough sunk in shit ton of hours in a very small space of time and essentially 565 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:44,600 rinsed it and we've had nothing new. Well, all like battlefield prime example there game came out, 566 00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:50,360 everyone loved it. They didn't add anything to it. So it died off. So when a developer says, 567 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:56,440 yeah, we're going to update it when it comes out and add more bits, we'll have to see. 568 00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:03,480 I see on the other side of the fence. I think it's better this way. I think release an absolute 569 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:10,200 Titan like GTA. It just comes through and everyone avoids any, probably the year GTA releases, 570 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:15,320 people are like, I'd rather not release the game, our game. I'd rather wait, get GTA out of the way. 571 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:22,040 The absolute juggernaut that is comes in, bulldozing everything out of the way, ruining careers of game 572 00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:25,480 developers because they've put their heart and soul into a game and they just happen to accidentally 573 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:31,320 drop their game in the same month as GTA. And it's just like, well, rip. Like Horizon. Exactly. 574 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:38,760 Exactly. Very bad luck. So I think if they release it and the trouble is we don't know whether they're 575 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:45,880 talking, are they talking single player or are they talking multiplayer? When they feel like, 576 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,560 I feel like they'll run with the same way they did with GTA five, where the single player will 577 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:55,160 come out and then, well, it took a while for the multiplayer to come out. It was about a year, 578 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:58,440 wasn't it? It was a while. Yeah. And even then when it came out, it was absolutely fucked. 579 00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:03,320 Yeah. Most of the time looking at clouds, didn't you? Yeah. Yeah. Well that's still, 580 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:07,800 still now, but I think if they're going to go down that road, I think that's more exciting 581 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:13,560 because you get in. I mean, GTA is not a game you, you jump in and you go, right, there's 582 00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:20,120 50 hours and I'm done. GTA. You can just mess around. Yeah. And just talking about it now makes 583 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:25,720 me want to play GTA. You should just stop it. Get out of my brain. So we did that. It was boring. 584 00:45:25,720 --> 00:45:33,080 Nah. Yeah. It was boring. There was a new update yesterday. I don't give a fuck. Fuck GTA. GTA five's 585 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:37,880 done. Let's leave that alone. All right. All right, mum. It's not happening. Sorry. No, man. Um, 586 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:42,440 anyway, the, I think that's exciting that they're going to add stuff over time because then 587 00:45:43,240 --> 00:45:48,680 you will get new content and it's not just going to be, oh, here's three new motorbikes, a plane, 588 00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:53,960 and you know, a jet ski that shoots rockets out his ass is going to be a whole new map 589 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:59,560 somewhere else to go see, hopefully new stories. Um, and yeah, I think that's much more exciting 590 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:05,160 because then it, a steady stream of content over a period of time, hopefully they can transition 591 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:13,800 single player and multiplayer seamlessly because there's no, having no DLC for GTA five single 592 00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:20,760 player or red dead to single plays just criminal waste waste. And I know why, because it's not 593 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:26,200 financially lucrative enough for them because no one's buying fucking shark cards on single 594 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:30,840 player. They all want it on fucking multiplayer. They want to rinse all the money they can see 595 00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:37,080 the little busts. The single player DLC is, it's like, take a lot more time to create the stuff 596 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:42,840 that they need to create. Um, and when they can just make more money just by adding a few guns in 597 00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:48,520 multiplayer. So pretty much, hopefully they're going to steer away from that and realise that 598 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:53,080 a lot of market they're missing out on of a single player games that people don't like 599 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:56,520 playing multiplayer. A lot of people don't like playing multiplayer. There's only certain games 600 00:46:56,520 --> 00:47:01,400 that I actually enjoy playing multiplayer. It's only sometimes I'm even in the mood for competitive 601 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:07,720 multiplayer or co-op like apex legends. Exactly. I've gone off that. It's just had enough of like 602 00:47:07,720 --> 00:47:14,040 the competitive nature. Cause it you start off going, Oh no, silly. I died. Oh dear. So, Oh fuck 603 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:19,400 sake. I died. It's a fucking hell. I can't deal with this game anymore. My ranking, my ranking has 604 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:24,600 gone down by one point. Exactly. And then it takes fucking seven hours to get it up again to one 605 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:32,200 point extra. Exactly. So you, it's difficult to balance the competitive side of myself because I 606 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:36,680 start off all relaxed and by the end of it, I'm, I've got a pillow and I'm headbutting it. Saving. 607 00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:43,000 And my wife's like, you need to sort yourself out. And I'm like, yeah, I know, but I can't admit it. 608 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:51,000 It's I'm fine. Nothing wrong with me. I can deal with this. I, yeah. Byte marks in the control. 609 00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:56,520 I think, I think it will be, it will obviously it's going to be good. I just, I don't know. 610 00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:01,480 I find myself sitting and talking about games and trying to have a valid opinion on it when 611 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:07,080 it all becomes undone when that game comes out. Yeah. Cause you'll be all over it like a crash. 612 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:12,440 Yeah. Yeah. I'm somewhat too faced when it comes to games. I think of it, I'm just chatting shit 613 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:17,400 for the sake of the podcast. Everyone will be all over it. It doesn't matter what anyone says. This 614 00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:24,760 is, I don't think there's a bigger game in history that has, or has the power that GTA has. I don't 615 00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:29,560 name another game. Do you think that could come anywhere close to coming out and just causing 616 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:35,320 mass hysteria across the world? Simpson's hit and run. That's a good one. Yeah. 100%. I never 617 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:42,760 actually played that. Uh huh. You were. I'll say it again for the people in the back. I never 618 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:47,560 played it. You never played Simpson's hit and run. No. What about Simpson's skateboarding? No. 619 00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:55,560 This is crazy. Why? What? You missed out on Simpson's hit and run. Are you a fan of the 620 00:48:55,560 --> 00:49:01,160 Simpsons? No, of course you're not. Cause you're old and fucking crusty. You're not interested in 621 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:07,160 it are you? Let me fucking talk you wep, wep'em. I was going to call you a wet lettuce and I 622 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:10,200 realised you'd already called me that. So that's the thing. I say now I look stupid. 623 00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:17,160 I like the Simpsons. I'm not as much of a fan as everybody else, but yeah, I do like the Simpsons. 624 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:21,720 Why I haven't played it. I've no idea. I don't know when it come out. I was probably playing 625 00:49:21,720 --> 00:49:27,800 something grown up like Metal Gear Solid. See, see right there, see that's that, that's that 626 00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:32,920 jockey FIFA mentality. I was playing something growing up. Fuck off. You shit all over me saying 627 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:38,440 you don't even like the Simpsons cause you're crusty. So I have just responded with the same 628 00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:41,960 level of aggression you showed me. It's not aggression though, is it? It is, you're shitting 629 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:51,480 all over me. So I'm shitting back on you. It's disgusting. Smell it. What is this? I don't know. 630 00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:58,280 I don't know what we're doing anymore. It's getting proper toilet water in it. Yeah. I said 631 00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:02,840 this would happen at the beginning of the podcast that we'd, we'd, we'd slowly fizzle out over the 632 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:09,880 hour. We was talking about GTA. I don't know why we're talking about it. Let's get off GTA. I'm 633 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:13,640 fucking sick of talking about it. We weren't. We were talking about Simpsons. Yeah. I know you 634 00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:18,360 never played it. You should do it. It's on fucking PS2, whatever. How am I supposed to play it then? 635 00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:24,040 Is it PS2 or is it PS3? I'm pretty sure it's PS2. I can see the box saying Simpsons hit and run on 636 00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:28,360 a PS2 case. I don't know why I never played it, but there will be a reason. I'll tell you what. 637 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:34,120 I'll tell you what the reason was. I was probably a kid and I had no money. It's in, it's in nerd 638 00:50:34,120 --> 00:50:38,680 base. Yeah, but you can't play it on PS5. So I don't know where to plan it. Another little plug 639 00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:43,240 there for nerd base. Yeah. Why aren't you sponsoring us? You've fucking done anything with us. It's 640 00:50:43,240 --> 00:50:49,560 ridiculous. It's ridiculous. Look at my Funko pops. Look at the money. The money invested is crazy. 641 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:54,360 I bought a board game from you. That's going very well. I mean, to be fair, then pop figures, 642 00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:59,720 85% of them will come from online. They've come from eBay. Yeah. Thanks nerd base. Yeah. Thanks 643 00:50:59,720 --> 00:51:04,360 nerd base for getting me into Funkos and then fucking turning me into eBay. Who got you into Funkos? 644 00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:18,280 No, technically Steph got me my first Funko. No. Or was it Lucy? Lucy Steph's sister by the way. 645 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:26,200 Uh, I don't know. Either way, nerd base. Come on. Come on. There's about 10 people that listen to 646 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:32,040 this that live nowhere near you. 10 people. Think how much it can help you out. Don't disrespect us. 647 00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:39,400 It's at least 12. We're going to hit a thousand downloads after this episode. We'll do a thousand 648 00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:45,160 download special right now. Thanks very much guys. You're the best. Yeah. Thanks. Um, 649 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:50,360 that is mental though. It is pretty crazy. A thousand already. That's this. That's at least 650 00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:56,520 a thousand hours. Well, not necessarily. Well, it is because it's down. They've downloaded it. 651 00:51:56,520 --> 00:52:00,040 That doesn't mean no, they haven't. It doesn't mean that they've listened to an hour. It just 652 00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:04,920 means they clicked on it and gone, what the fuck is this? And then clicked off. Well, let's not 653 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:09,000 get into it. Don't get into analytics. He does this. He does this. I get all hyped up about the 654 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:13,960 analytics and he shits on it. He goes, I'm a pessimist, not an optimist. It's not real though, 655 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:21,000 is it? No, yeah. Yeah. We're not even far. Just enjoy it. Enjoy it. This is fun. This is fun. 656 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:24,520 I'd be happy if there was just one person listening. I'm doing this. I know you fucking 657 00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:29,480 wouldn't. I'm doing this for myself and I'm enjoying it. As long as I enjoy it, 658 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:33,880 I will continue to do so. Yeah. If something comes from it, fantastic. If it doesn't, 659 00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:38,440 well, we had a bloody good ride, didn't we, son? I hope Dean enjoys this episode. 660 00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:44,840 Listen to this one. Yeah. Yeah. Dean about to finish the greatest game of all time. 661 00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:49,560 That what was you going to call him? Cause he will hurt you, bro. I was going to call him a weasel. 662 00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:54,200 Yeah, not wise. He's not going to hurt me over the airwaves. Is he? No, but I know he live. 663 00:52:54,200 --> 00:53:00,280 What did he call me? He called me a beautifully spoken nerdy gremlin. 664 00:53:03,240 --> 00:53:09,080 He's about to finish the Witcher three, which I am a fan of. So congrats to him. He's pumped in 665 00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:15,240 about a hundred hours. That is decent. The greatest game of all time. And he is, you know, he's, he's 666 00:53:15,240 --> 00:53:20,760 plotting along there and he's done well. I can't wait to hear his thoughts on how that ends up. 667 00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:26,440 Embrace your nerd. We are now the majority. So when you speak out in public about being a nerd 668 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:31,240 and you get bullied, there will be more nerds than there will bullies. You're safe. So embrace it. 669 00:53:31,240 --> 00:53:35,560 If you're scared of being a nerd, never be scared. Be yourself. Yes. 670 00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:42,680 We could have ended it there. What a rousing speech. That was 671 00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:49,720 those people all around the lounge standing up. I sat up in my chair to say that. Uh, we, yeah. 672 00:53:49,720 --> 00:53:54,920 You did actually. Yeah. I want to talk about no man's sky a little bit. Gordon. I'm obsessed. 673 00:53:55,480 --> 00:54:01,000 I'm obsessed. This is the, what we've been playing this week part, by the way, this game is just, 674 00:54:01,720 --> 00:54:08,520 I'm going to just put the mic down. Let you ramble. Oh my God. It's just incredible. I can't get over 675 00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:15,480 that you can learn actual languages with these little fucking cretinous things and you can change 676 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:22,360 your appearance. There's capes need I say anymore. I will, but there's capes annoyingly when I play 677 00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:26,040 with actually can't actually see my cape. I don't know why I've changed it to a backpack now because 678 00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:31,800 I was sick of fucking being excited by it, but no one can see it. But the ships, the freighters, 679 00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:37,960 colossus, exo crafts, the minerals, that's just mental. It's minecraft, but space. 680 00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:43,160 He's genuinely put the mic down and he's just letting me ramble on. It's just, it's, it's, 681 00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:47,880 it's, I was looking for something. I let my world of warcraft subscription run out. 682 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:51,640 I thought, fuck it. I can't be asked of it. I'll wait for dragon flight to come out. So I'm not 683 00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:56,360 going to touch it. Therefore my laptop has remained shut. It only opens up for this podcast. 684 00:54:57,320 --> 00:55:03,240 So I was looking for something to fill the void. I bought all the DLC for destiny. What a waste of 685 00:55:03,240 --> 00:55:08,680 fucking money that was. It's not over. Destiny is not over. I bought it and then was playing it for 686 00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:13,080 a little bit. And then I was playing with Ash and I went, no, let's play a bit of no man's sky. 687 00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:18,760 And haven't looked back. Just been playing it nonstop. And like I say, I'm dreaming about it. 688 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:24,520 That little refiner, putting my copper in, getting chromatic metal out of it. You see, 689 00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:29,640 I'm remembering all the little things. Oh, have you got, have you got the backpack refining yet? 690 00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:33,160 Yeah. You made me get hold of it. Yeah. Very important. So much easier. 691 00:55:33,160 --> 00:55:37,720 And then going all your little space stations and getting, filling up, filling up your exo suit, 692 00:55:37,720 --> 00:55:44,040 getting more space in that just, oh, and the Sentinels, them fucking little things. They just 693 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:49,640 attack you for no reason because I've killed a fucking scarab. Leave me alone. Let me crack on 694 00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:55,400 with my day because you're just going to get popped in the face with a bolt caster. Look at you. I'm 695 00:55:55,400 --> 00:56:01,160 like a proud father. Hearing you reeling all these names off. It's so mental. And you get to, 696 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:08,200 what I find crazy is that it is huge. The game itself is massive. I don't think if you've never 697 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:13,240 played No Man's Sky, you cannot comprehend how big this game actually is. I don't understand how it 698 00:56:13,240 --> 00:56:20,280 works. I really don't because it is the universe. And I'm not downplaying that. It is genuinely, 699 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:26,840 get a pic, get a map of, of the observable universe, print it off and have a look at it. 700 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:32,120 That is No Man's Sky. Every single little galaxy with their little planets and their moons, 701 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:37,640 and you genuinely discover them all and you get to actually name them. My base is called the log 702 00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:47,560 house. His name, can I give out a PlayStation? His name's the stinky log. So that's why it's 703 00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:52,280 called the log house. That is, that is the stinky log. And that is a capital T, a capital S and a 704 00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:57,880 capital L. I was going to change, cause he's called the stinky log, I was going to change my, my 705 00:56:57,880 --> 00:57:02,760 PlayStation name to the stinkier log. And then Clarkie was going to be the stinkiest log. 706 00:57:03,720 --> 00:57:07,640 And we could still do that. It's perfect. Yeah, we could. It's one of the greatest names I've 707 00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:14,280 ever heard, the stinky log. I remember, I remember asking you what your PlayStation name was and you 708 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:21,960 went, ah, and you paused. And I was like, what's he about to come out with, man? I was not expecting 709 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:31,000 the stinky log. I just, I'm all over this game and I really am. It is, and it feels good to play. 710 00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:37,320 That's the, that's the, the best bit about it, especially the, just the fly and the ships and 711 00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:43,400 shit takes actual hours. If you fuck up and you haven't got any, any fuel in your ship to warp 712 00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:48,040 somewhere, that's it. Wherever you are, you're stuck there until you find something to, to, 713 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:53,080 you find another warp core. You know what I mean? Or just, ah, 714 00:57:53,880 --> 00:57:58,760 It always seems to be something to do in No Man's Sky. My problem is I get paralysed because I'm 715 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:04,280 looking for X, Y and Z. I'll start looking for X, Y and Z, but I'll forget why I was looking for X, 716 00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:09,160 Y and Z. So I'll collect them and be like, what was I doing with this stuff? And that happens to me 717 00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:14,440 all the time. And I never really know what I'm doing. I'll just piss about for a bit, get a few 718 00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:20,120 things, mess around. Yeah, but that's what makes it fun. I never know when I'm, I feel like I'm 719 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:24,040 doing stuff wrong all the time, but it's not a game where you can do anything wrong. Cause it's just 720 00:58:24,040 --> 00:58:29,560 do what you like. There's no monitors monetisation in there. There's no egregious money grabbing 721 00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:34,200 scheme. Where are they getting their money from? I did say this. Where, where is it coming from? I 722 00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:41,160 can't understand. I retract everything I said from the last episode where I was like, because I was 723 00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:47,880 talking shit again. Right. As usual. Where are they getting their dough from? Because this game is 724 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:53,240 mega. This is mental. They just released the freighter update, which is their 20th major 725 00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:59,480 update since release. For free. For free. Every single one for free. Who is make, how are they 726 00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:04,520 paying for this? I don't understand what they're doing. Cause I'd give them money. I'd give them money. 727 00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:08,760 You want some money? They'll give you some money. Cause you deserve it. This game is- 728 00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:15,000 companies like this, that you do wish there was some kind of way to pay them monetisation because 729 00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:20,920 the X, the, the death star store, as we'll just call it. Cause I can't say anomaly. The anomaly. 730 00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:26,040 I did it. Thank you. Thank you. Character development. The store in there, they've got a 731 00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:30,120 special currency called quick silver, which as soon as you click on it, you're like, right, 732 00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:33,960 where do I buy the quick silver? Where's the store? No, no, no, no, no. No, you just own it. 733 00:59:33,960 --> 00:59:39,560 You just earn it. Oh, nanites. Where's the store? No, you just earn it. Credits. Yeah, you just earn 734 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:44,760 it. There's nothing in there for you to buy. And I would happily buy it. Yeah. But it's not even 735 00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:49,400 like they, it's not even like it's a currency that you can't pay for and it takes fucking forever to 736 00:59:49,400 --> 00:59:53,960 get hold of nanites is sort of like you've got your credits, which is your basically your pounds, 737 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:59,720 your dollars, whatever your fucking currency is. And then nanites is, is the next one up. 738 00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:04,280 And then quick silver is like the top tier type shit. And you would expect that for something 739 01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:08,440 like nanites is where you buy your vehicle upgrades and all that type of shit. And you 740 01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:12,200 would think that, oh, these are going to be quite difficult to get hold of. They're not. They're 741 01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:17,880 everywhere. They're not. And then credits, you can scan stuff. So you can, you land on a new planet 742 01:00:17,880 --> 01:00:24,600 or whatever, and you've never been there before. You, you have to find out what minerals are in 743 01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:30,520 what and, and basically what anything is. You can fucking scan a rock to find out what it is. And 744 01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:36,360 you get currency for doing that. And Ash bought a little upgrade for his scanner that increased the 745 01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:43,480 currency you get by like 9,000%. And I bought it as well. So now you can make some serious dough, 746 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:48,360 just looking at shit. You know what I mean? They don't make it difficult to get hold of the currency. 747 01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:53,080 And I just, oh, it's just a very, I think I've never been able to put my finger on 748 01:00:53,080 --> 01:00:58,360 what I like about it so much. And it obviously it was only in the last couple of years where I did 749 01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:05,080 enjoy it. Cause it came out, it was fucking dog doo doo. So now, but I don't know what the, 750 01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:09,640 what the recipe is because it's addictive and I don't know why I'm enjoying what I'm doing, 751 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:16,760 but I am. I like my, my main quest at the moment in my log, stinky log, in the stinky log, 752 01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:25,480 in the stinky logs log is in my mighty stinky log is literally, it's basically just talking 753 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:30,760 around to me and said, yeah, in order for you to progress, just go out and have some fun, 754 01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:34,840 go and search some shit. We'll get back to you when you've done enough, but we won't tell you 755 01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:39,480 what you need to do. Just go out and fucking do some shit. That's the beautiful thing about it. 756 01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:44,600 I love that. Is that you can just do whatever you like and there's no, well, there is goals. 757 01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:49,240 You can follow them, but whatever the fuck ever that, you know, I should set your own goals. 758 01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:54,280 That's what I enjoy the most. Cause I'm, I'm like, well, I want to build a proper base. I've built 759 01:01:54,280 --> 01:01:59,320 a couple of little wacky ones, but I'm not fast. I want, I'm waiting for that perfect planet where 760 01:01:59,320 --> 01:02:04,840 I'm like, this is the one that I, this is, this is the, this is the one. And there's many things 761 01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:09,080 like that. I'm saving money for the right ship. I'm saving money for the right freighter. And I'm 762 01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:14,040 just playing the game and every now and again, something like that looks good. Can I afford it? 763 01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:18,280 Is it what I want? No, it's not. When that, when that moment comes and it has happened a couple of 764 01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:23,320 times where you find something that you've been looking for, like, Oh yes, yes, yes, yes. That's 765 01:02:23,320 --> 01:02:29,080 exciting. It's enjoyable. It lets off the, the fair moans if that's what it's called in your brain 766 01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:36,040 and you're, you're enjoying it. It's a very satisfying gameplay loop. And yeah, what, 767 01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:39,720 what a great experience and what a redemption arc from the shit they released. 768 01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:45,400 Definitely. And I don't feel like you, I feel like when you, when you jump into open world type 769 01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:51,880 games, I don't know about you, but I always feel like there's so much to do. I don't want to miss 770 01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:56,840 out on anything. So I begin to rush things. I, I start doing the main story and then there's about 771 01:02:56,840 --> 01:02:59,800 a billion side question and go, well, I want to do, I want to do them because I don't want to miss 772 01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:02,440 out on anything, but I want to do the main story because I don't want to miss out on that, blah, 773 01:03:02,440 --> 01:03:06,280 blah, blah, blah, blah. So you end up getting overwhelmed and there have been games like 774 01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:09,880 Assassin's Creed origins where I just put the controller down and went, no, I can't do this 775 01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:15,800 because there's too much going on. I, I, I can't enjoy it because I've been given too much, 776 01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:24,200 which sounds very strange. Like you say, paralysis from just having too much shit to do and no man's 777 01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:29,720 sky, there are a billion and one different things to do, but I don't feel like I'm missing out on 778 01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:34,520 anything because you can do whatever the fuck you want. If I want to go down on a planet 779 01:03:34,520 --> 01:03:39,720 and I want to dig to the core, I can, if that's my priority to do that, I'm going to go and do that. 780 01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:45,480 But if I want to go and sit in a space station looking at the little gecks, yeah, just, just, 781 01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:49,720 just laughing at them. I can, no one's, no one's stopping me from doing that. I'm not missing out 782 01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:54,120 on anything. And I think what me and Ash have decided to do, which I think will go in our 783 01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:59,800 favour very well is not research it. Yeah. Not looking for anything. I'm not Googling what this 784 01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:05,240 thing does or how I get hold of this. I'm just letting it let, I'm just, I'm just riding it to 785 01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:11,000 see what happens. And I think that that is way more exciting than seeing any possibilities. 786 01:04:11,640 --> 01:04:15,480 I prefer that. No, it is the best way to play. It's funny. You should say that about rushing 787 01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:18,760 through games and stuff, because I was thinking about this with God of War the other day. I'm 788 01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:22,840 actually nervous for that game coming out for that reason. I'm going to rush that motherfucker. 789 01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:28,280 100%. That's what I hate. I don't want to rush it, but I will have to. We will. Because when 790 01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:33,720 that game comes out, spoilers, yeah. Yeah. And you have to get through it because it just doesn't 791 01:04:33,720 --> 01:04:37,800 take much for an Instagram post to just be like, I didn't know that was a boss. I didn't know that. 792 01:04:37,800 --> 01:04:43,000 Who's that? Yeah. And she like that. And that infuriates me. So you either have to go completely 793 01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:49,000 in the dark, cold Turkey, which now doing this podcast is an impossibility. Um, we have to keep 794 01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:52,600 up with some sort of news, although you wouldn't believe that we do because we're fucking useless. 795 01:04:53,240 --> 01:04:57,320 We've been quite relevant with what we're talking about. I mean, yeah, we have, but I mentioned 796 01:04:57,320 --> 01:05:03,400 GGA six and you had no idea. And it kind of does the news. Don't get bigger than that. But, um, 797 01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:07,480 yeah, I'm a bit concerned about that coming out and then me having a rush for it. Cause I don't 798 01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:12,040 like rushing. You want to take your sweet time, didn't you? But there you go. Uh, yeah. No man's 799 01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:16,520 sky is cracking. I think I'm enjoying it. It's especially for me. I've been playing it for quite 800 01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:21,080 a few years on and off. So it's nice to jump in on multiplayer, which I've never done before, 801 01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:25,720 like we were afraid and fly around and see the multi-play is very smooth as well. I was expecting 802 01:05:25,720 --> 01:05:30,840 it to be very jittery and very good. You literally just join someone's session and there you are. 803 01:05:30,840 --> 01:05:35,080 Yeah. It's very smooth. You're not like glitching around or jerking around. You're very smooth and 804 01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:39,880 what you're doing and yeah, there's still so much to do on there. We haven't really scratched the 805 01:05:39,880 --> 01:05:46,840 surface. Uh, so yeah, plenty to do. And it's the perfect game to see me through to, uh, starfield 806 01:05:47,560 --> 01:05:54,520 next year. I agree to be fair. So joins the roster of game pass, hopefully. Um, so yeah, 807 01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:59,880 I'm, I'm, I'm using that as a thing. And we've got to remember there'll be the summer 4.0 update, 808 01:05:59,880 --> 01:06:05,000 which is the most exciting thing for no man's sky because that's when all the changes come through, 809 01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:11,320 all the exciting updates coming, the big 4.0 update is, is coming and uh, what will be in there? Who 810 01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:18,120 knows? I'm hoping for some, some people to fight that aren't sentinels. That's one of my main 811 01:06:18,120 --> 01:06:21,960 things. That will be quite enjoyable. Um, but there's plenty of, there's plenty of things they 812 01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:26,840 can improve upon and I'm sure they will, but to be fair, they've already given more than enough. So 813 01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:31,320 God knows where they go from here. I don't know what their plans are, but shout out no man's sky 814 01:06:31,320 --> 01:06:37,160 and Sean Murray and all the team. Cause wow. Thank you very much. Just don't do a season pass. 815 01:06:37,160 --> 01:06:42,360 Please. I'd pay for that. I know. I know. And I would too, but that's sounds like they should 816 01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:49,960 do a season. Please don't do that. Yeah. Well, well yeah, I guess this, well I opened it. So 817 01:06:49,960 --> 01:06:56,200 I suppose I'll close it. This has been what's the buttons. You've been beautiful. Oh, ro. Oh, ro.
