1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,540
I'm going to do it. It's my

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:11,040
intro. Uh hello everyone.

3
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:13,880
We're back again for episode

4
00:00:11,100 --> 00:00:15,580
eleven. My name is Rhys Leng

5
00:00:13,940 --> 00:00:17,580
Doggy Doggy. It feels ****

6
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:18,780
weird when I say it myself. I'm

7
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:20,380
not going to do that again. My

8
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:22,180
name is just Reese and with me,

9
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:25,420
I have the prince among men.

10
00:00:22,260 --> 00:00:27,020
Hello. Do you know next week?

11
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,420
Yeah. It's going to be a 12th

12
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,420
episode which means we would

13
00:00:29,420 --> 00:00:33,420
be talking about the quarter of

14
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:34,920
a year. How long it's been?

15
00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:36,420
What's a strange journey it's

16
00:00:34,980 --> 00:00:37,320
been? It's crazy. I was

17
00:00:36,480 --> 00:00:39,860
thinking that the other day. I

18
00:00:37,380 --> 00:00:41,760
was like, at least at least 10

19
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,960
hours spent just sat here

20
00:00:41,820 --> 00:00:46,400
talking absolute waffle.

21
00:00:44,020 --> 00:00:50,400
**** I love it. Uh today is the

22
00:00:46,460 --> 00:00:53,300
release of Rings of Power and I

23
00:00:50,460 --> 00:00:54,900
can't be more **** excited. I

24
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,400
want to get this hour out the

25
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:59,300
way. I want to be done with

26
00:00:59,300 --> 00:01:03,300
this because I've been avoiding

27
00:01:02,060 --> 00:01:06,260
spoilers all **** day all day.

28
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:08,060
Gandalf dies. I've I've I know

29
00:01:06,340 --> 00:01:10,200
it's not true but I can't ****

30
00:01:08,140 --> 00:01:12,100
wait. I cannot wait to two

31
00:01:10,260 --> 00:01:13,640
whole episodes. A minimum of

32
00:01:12,180 --> 00:01:15,140
two hours is sitting there

33
00:01:13,700 --> 00:01:18,040
waiting for my viewing pleasure

34
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:19,340
and I'm all for it. So, what

35
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,740
food you're going to eat with

36
00:01:19,420 --> 00:01:22,220
it? You can't watch something

37
00:01:20,820 --> 00:01:23,120
like that and not eat stuff.

38
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,180
See, I don't know if I'm going

39
00:01:23,180 --> 00:01:25,220
to have had dinner by then. I'm

40
00:01:24,260 --> 00:01:26,680
not sure I might even treat

41
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:29,260
myself and go and get a kebab.

42
00:01:29,260 --> 00:01:32,620
I'm not sure she doesn't hear

43
00:01:31,780 --> 00:01:33,820
that. She's not going to hear

44
00:01:32,700 --> 00:01:35,260
that until next week when she

45
00:01:33,900 --> 00:01:36,800
listens to it. Sorry if we

46
00:01:35,320 --> 00:01:39,600
hadn't had a had a kebab already

47
00:01:36,860 --> 00:01:41,260
Steph. I apologize. So, I I

48
00:01:39,660 --> 00:01:43,800
don't know but I agree. Snacks

49
00:01:41,340 --> 00:01:45,700
will be needed because I will

50
00:01:43,860 --> 00:01:47,240
be glued to the screen but I

51
00:01:45,780 --> 00:01:48,780
I I need to be shoveling food

52
00:01:47,300 --> 00:01:50,300
in my mouth while I'm doing it.

53
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,740
That's the problem I have.

54
00:01:50,380 --> 00:01:53,180
Obviously, I'm trying to diet

55
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,640
properly. I'm back in the gym

56
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,820
trying to get myself ship shape.

57
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,180
Mm hmm. I struggle to watch

58
00:01:58,180 --> 00:02:00,820
stuff. I'm not sure I'm going

59
00:01:59,380 --> 00:02:02,160
to be able to do that. I just

60
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,460
get fidgety. Yeah, I normally

61
00:02:02,220 --> 00:02:04,560
flick on my phone and Steph goes,

62
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,960
you're not **** watching it. I

63
00:02:04,620 --> 00:02:07,120
go, I'm I'm listening. Yeah,

64
00:02:06,020 --> 00:02:08,620
see, I can't do that because

65
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,500
that that annoys me. I'm on

66
00:02:08,700 --> 00:02:11,460
Steph's side. That's

67
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,060
infuriating. Jem's like, oh,

68
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,500
should we watch something? Oh,

69
00:02:13,140 --> 00:02:15,700
go on in. We watch that and

70
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,740
then she's sitting on her phone.

71
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,340
It infuriates me. Yeah, but

72
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:18,200
that's infuriating for you

73
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,140
because whatever you're

74
00:02:18,260 --> 00:02:21,400
watching, you're interested in.

75
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,500
Yeah. So, if you're watching

76
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,980
something that you're interested

77
00:02:22,580 --> 00:02:25,980
in and she was flicking on her

78
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,980
phone. Well, neither in or

79
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:27,720
there, is it? You wanted to

80
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,560
watch something else? Yeah.

81
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,160
Yeah, but I can listen. No,

82
00:02:30,620 --> 00:02:33,660
it's not good enough. I won't

83
00:02:32,220 --> 00:02:35,160
be doing it during rings of

84
00:02:33,740 --> 00:02:37,060
power. That's all I'm saying.

85
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,000
I'll be eating and I'll be, my

86
00:02:37,140 --> 00:02:40,300
phone will be away from me. I

87
00:02:39,060 --> 00:02:42,180
might even put it in a different

88
00:02:40,380 --> 00:02:44,080
room. I always think Doritos

89
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:46,740
are a good. I hate Doritos.

90
00:02:44,140 --> 00:02:49,140
Ugh. I get out. I don't hate

91
00:02:46,820 --> 00:02:50,720
them but they're never a crisp

92
00:02:49,220 --> 00:02:53,080
that I'm going to pick up over

93
00:02:50,780 --> 00:02:55,720
anything else. What's to go to

94
00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,780
with salt and vinegar or or

95
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:02,220
discos, squares, anything salt

96
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,580
and vinegar is normally what I

97
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,060
go for. Discos, discos, I can

98
00:03:03,660 --> 00:03:06,720
get behind. They are

99
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:10,720
flavoursome. Discos are delicious.

100
00:03:06,780 --> 00:03:12,000
Delicious. So strange. We've

101
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,400
got our little list of things

102
00:03:12,060 --> 00:03:14,800
that we're going to talk about.

103
00:03:13,460 --> 00:03:16,160
First thing I want to talk

104
00:03:14,860 --> 00:03:19,400
about or we want to talk about

105
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:21,040
is the uh new Assassin's Creed

106
00:03:19,460 --> 00:03:22,600
that has been leaked and then

107
00:03:21,100 --> 00:03:24,200
announced and we'll find out

108
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:30,200
what's going on in Assassin's

109
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:31,760
Creed Mirage. Mirage. I am

110
00:03:30,260 --> 00:03:33,200
looking forward to finding out

111
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,640
some more info on it if I'm

112
00:03:33,260 --> 00:03:37,640
honest because I think it could

113
00:03:34,700 --> 00:03:39,200
be quite decent. I feel like

114
00:03:37,700 --> 00:03:41,180
they're going back to their

115
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,640
roots is something that I'm I'm

116
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:45,240
paraphrasing is what I see and

117
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,640
that they're going to focus

118
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,620
less on the open world aspect

119
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:51,060
and more on the uh stealth

120
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,760
mission side of things which to

121
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:58,160
me is what Assassin's Creed

122
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:59,760
used to be like um and I'm all

123
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:04,440
for it. Let me read this from

124
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:05,780
Kotaku. Go for it. Um Ubisoft

125
00:04:04,500 --> 00:04:07,800
officially reveals Assassin's

126
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,480
Creed Mirage after protagonist

127
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,340
leaks. So, what actually

128
00:04:09,540 --> 00:04:11,780
happened was there was loads of

129
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,920
leaks and then Ubisoft

130
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:13,920
obviously just got a bit

131
00:04:12,980 --> 00:04:15,120
annoyed and was like, yeah,

132
00:04:13,980 --> 00:04:16,280
alright and they tweeted

133
00:04:15,180 --> 00:04:17,280
basically saying, yeah, the

134
00:04:16,340 --> 00:04:18,280
next game is called Assassin's

135
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,180
Creed Mirage. We'll show you

136
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,680
more next week. They probably

137
00:04:19,260 --> 00:04:22,160
leaked it themselves. That's

138
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,160
what we're going to talk about

139
00:04:23,620 --> 00:04:26,720
in a bit. A bit of artwork from

140
00:04:25,220 --> 00:04:27,820
the long rumored Assassin's

141
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,200
Creed Mirage appeared to leak

142
00:04:27,900 --> 00:04:32,100
late last night. Then this

143
00:04:29,260 --> 00:04:33,360
morning, uh Ubisoft finally

144
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,800
confirmed that the game is

145
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,840
real. Maybe earlier than it had

146
00:04:34,860 --> 00:04:37,000
intended to make the official

147
00:04:35,900 --> 00:04:39,100
reveal. It's quite a leaky ship

148
00:04:37,060 --> 00:04:40,200
over there. Like yesterday, a

149
00:04:39,180 --> 00:04:41,300
piece of artwork that appeared

150
00:04:40,280 --> 00:04:42,680
to be related to an upcoming

151
00:04:41,380 --> 00:04:44,140
entry in Ubisoft's long running

152
00:04:42,740 --> 00:04:45,680
stealth action series popped up

153
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:48,080
online sporting an Assassin's

154
00:04:45,740 --> 00:04:49,580
Creed Mirage logo. It depicts a

155
00:04:48,140 --> 00:04:51,480
white hooded figure staring

156
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,460
at the sword. The exact

157
00:04:53,460 --> 00:04:56,920
context is unclear but it's

158
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,360
possible the leaked image is

159
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,160
tied to future DLC planned for

160
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,600
the just announced game.

161
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,900
Assassin's Creed Mirage

162
00:05:02,660 --> 00:05:05,400
previously code named Rift is

163
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,200
the follow up to 2020s Vikings

164
00:05:05,460 --> 00:05:08,800
themed Valhalla set in ninth

165
00:05:07,280 --> 00:05:10,480
century Baghdad and originally

166
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,680
planned as an expansion to

167
00:05:10,540 --> 00:05:15,440
Valhalla. Mirage will put Valhalla

168
00:05:12,740 --> 00:05:18,380
supporting character Basim Ibn

169
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,980
Ishaq in the lead role. Feature

170
00:05:19,980 --> 00:05:23,960
will be based primarily on

171
00:05:21,660 --> 00:05:26,460
stealth gameplay. Many of these

172
00:05:24,020 --> 00:05:28,700
deets. I hate that. I hate that

173
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,700
word. I hate that word. A

174
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,200
sixteen-year-old wrote this

175
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,300
article. These deets. No, many

176
00:05:31,260 --> 00:05:34,840
of these details. I'm going to

177
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,200
say we're already uncovered by

178
00:05:34,900 --> 00:05:37,900
Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier

179
00:05:36,280 --> 00:05:39,300
in February. Jason Schreier, one

180
00:05:37,980 --> 00:05:41,480
of the leakers that I've always

181
00:05:39,380 --> 00:05:43,880
said is top tier and never

182
00:05:41,540 --> 00:05:46,880
really gets anything wrong.

183
00:05:43,940 --> 00:05:48,320
Um with Schreier saying that

184
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,100
Mirage is a game that would

185
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,540
uh purporting that the game

186
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,940
will land sometime in spring

187
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,940
2023. Now, between the leaked

188
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,240
image and Ubisoft's official

189
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,100
announcement tweet, we've got

190
00:05:58,300 --> 00:06:00,300
our first glimpse of what Mirage

191
00:05:59,180 --> 00:06:01,780
will look like and while it

192
00:06:00,380 --> 00:06:03,280
isn't much yet, it at least

193
00:06:01,840 --> 00:06:05,340
looks like a quintessential

194
00:06:03,340 --> 00:06:06,640
Assassin's Creed. As you can

195
00:06:05,420 --> 00:06:08,040
see from the images above which

196
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,280
you can't see, just Google them.

197
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,280
The leaked art shows our hooded

198
00:06:09,340 --> 00:06:11,480
assassin equipped with a short

199
00:06:10,340 --> 00:06:12,980
sword and the iconic hidden

200
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,260
blade. They're standing in what

201
00:06:13,060 --> 00:06:15,520
appears to be a sandy crypt of

202
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,020
some sort preparing to face off

203
00:06:17,020 --> 00:06:20,000
against the Mongol invaders.

204
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,460
What's also hazen over one of

205
00:06:20,060 --> 00:06:23,040
the images is the text Forty

206
00:06:21,540 --> 00:06:25,340
Thieves Quest which refers to a

207
00:06:23,100 --> 00:06:26,940
Middle Eastern fable about a

208
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,980
prince taking revenge against

209
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:31,280
Mongol invaders. Mongol

210
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,680
invaders. The style of the

211
00:06:31,340 --> 00:06:34,180
leaked image is identical to

212
00:06:32,740 --> 00:06:35,940
the style Ubisoft had previously

213
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,580
used for promotional artwork

214
00:06:36,020 --> 00:06:38,920
tied to DLC and other

215
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,420
Assassin's Creed games such as

216
00:06:38,980 --> 00:06:41,820
Valhalla's the legacy of

217
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,220
Beowulf. That's very true. That

218
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,660
does look very similar. It's a

219
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:45,920
sort of image you'd see

220
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,620
somewhere in the middle of the

221
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:50,120
age. Some believe Ubisoft

222
00:06:48,700 --> 00:06:51,700
itself accidentally leaked the

223
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,360
artwork through its store. On

224
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,860
the other hand, an exchange

225
00:06:53,420 --> 00:06:55,860
Shryer had with someone on

226
00:06:54,940 --> 00:06:56,860
Twitter suggests the link may

227
00:06:55,940 --> 00:06:58,940
have been the work of some

228
00:06:56,940 --> 00:06:59,800
external party. Either way,

229
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,040
Ubisoft is cracking down on the

230
00:06:59,860 --> 00:07:02,300
leaked piece of artwork issuing

231
00:07:01,100 --> 00:07:03,840
take down notices and scrubbing

232
00:07:02,380 --> 00:07:04,780
it from the internet. Take down

233
00:07:03,900 --> 00:07:06,180
notices. As fast as it can. You

234
00:07:04,840 --> 00:07:07,680
know how that goes though. It's

235
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,840
out. It's already out and it's

236
00:07:07,740 --> 00:07:11,720
not they aren't standing in

237
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:14,020
front of a little figure. It's

238
00:07:11,780 --> 00:07:15,880
a massive motherfucker with a

239
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:29,360
Large

240
00:07:17,660 --> 00:07:32,860
monument to the King's

241
00:07:29,420 --> 00:07:39,740
headquarters of a nearby

242
00:07:39,740 --> 00:07:44,300
When reached for comment, a Ubisoft representative simply pointed Kotaku to its official tweet as

243
00:07:44,300 --> 00:07:49,420
confirmation of Mirage's existence. Mirage isn't the only Assassin's Creed game Ubisoft is working

244
00:07:49,420 --> 00:07:54,220
on right now, the studio is also developing a live service project codenamed Infinity,

245
00:07:54,220 --> 00:07:58,780
which will reportedly feature different but interconnected Assassin's Creed games,

246
00:07:58,780 --> 00:08:03,980
with ongoing content updates adding more settings and timelines. However, other details have been

247
00:08:03,980 --> 00:08:10,700
revealed about this project as of yet, it should say how other details have not been revealed,

248
00:08:10,700 --> 00:08:13,180
I think it should say it doesn't say that. But yeah that was um...

249
00:08:17,900 --> 00:08:25,100
An article. There was an article from Kotaku, I'm sorry I can't find the uh Levi Winslow um

250
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:29,420
yeah shout out to Kotaku and Levi Winslow for that article but yeah that's that's basically

251
00:08:29,420 --> 00:08:35,340
what it's very very limited information they must be pissed because if they didn't

252
00:08:36,540 --> 00:08:42,540
intentionally leak that themselves you must be annoyed if you weren't prepared to to announce

253
00:08:42,540 --> 00:08:47,340
that until well saying that though they've got their thing on the 10th so if that was something

254
00:08:47,340 --> 00:08:53,260
that they were gonna announce then it's not really too too much of an issue it's probably a leak

255
00:08:53,260 --> 00:08:59,340
intentionally to drum up the interest for the presentation yeah i think it looks it does look

256
00:08:59,340 --> 00:09:05,820
good um from the from the two images i've seen so your standpoint on Assassin's Creed Mirage from

257
00:09:05,820 --> 00:09:12,380
what you've heard going back to the roots that excites you greatly yeah yeah because it it um

258
00:09:13,500 --> 00:09:19,100
as we've discussed before the current Assassin's Creed games that are that are the latest ones that

259
00:09:19,100 --> 00:09:25,260
are out being Valhalla origins they're they're not um they're they're very different to the original

260
00:09:25,260 --> 00:09:29,740
Assassin's Creed and i'm not doubt i'm not saying that they're not good games because i know that

261
00:09:29,740 --> 00:09:36,300
they are but it's not Assassin's Creed if that makes sense it should be labeled as something else

262
00:09:36,300 --> 00:09:41,500
so if they're going to go back to the likes of Assassin's Creed 2, Brotherhood, Revelations,

263
00:09:41,500 --> 00:09:46,940
Black Flag, they aren't the the older style then i'm all for it i think it could be quite good i

264
00:09:46,940 --> 00:09:51,420
know you're a huge Assassin's Creed fan so that speaks to you whilst me on the other hand

265
00:09:52,860 --> 00:09:56,940
i slip on the other side where i like where they've gone with the new ones not entirely

266
00:09:56,940 --> 00:10:03,660
convinced on them but i think they're far too big way too big they are way too big um i think they

267
00:10:03,660 --> 00:10:13,020
are well yeah unnecessarily large too many uh collectifons yeah and i also i know it's a uh

268
00:10:13,020 --> 00:10:18,780
a common theme with people saying it but i agree that it should just be a separate entity they

269
00:10:18,780 --> 00:10:23,660
should stick to Assassin's Creed while it was and then they these games i Valhalla it should just be

270
00:10:23,660 --> 00:10:30,780
Valhalla yeah yeah you could take out all you got to do for Valhalla is slight tweaks to the story

271
00:10:30,780 --> 00:10:35,180
and take the animus out and it's nothing to do with Assassin's Creed yeah yeah they were very

272
00:10:35,180 --> 00:10:40,700
loosely holding on to the whole animus side of it towards towards the latest games it like you

273
00:10:40,700 --> 00:10:45,820
like you just said you could quite easily cut that bit out the interesting part about it is i

274
00:10:45,820 --> 00:10:51,820
slogged through Valhalla and i am obviously as we all know i'm a huge Vikings fan um shout out

275
00:10:51,820 --> 00:10:59,340
Ragnar Lothbrok and um yeah i that was like i was the most excited i've been for an Assassin's Creed

276
00:10:59,340 --> 00:11:03,660
game ever because there's never really been a Viking game that i could recall and uh that that

277
00:11:03,660 --> 00:11:08,700
game probably took me three or four sittings to go through and when i say sittings i mean playing it

278
00:11:08,700 --> 00:11:15,420
for a month stopping and then going back and i and it yeah it took me probably over a year to finish

279
00:11:15,420 --> 00:11:20,460
that game yeah and it took me and i and i pretty much there were some times where i was messing

280
00:11:20,460 --> 00:11:24,940
around with Cyprus and stuff but predominantly i'll beeline the quest and that game took me

281
00:11:25,580 --> 00:11:32,220
i think it was 90 hours it's a long just to do the story but it wasn't like 90 hours of story it was

282
00:11:32,220 --> 00:11:37,820
90 hours of bloat and and when the story was when it's like a main story and it was kicking off it

283
00:11:37,820 --> 00:11:44,700
was really good yeah it just takes so long to get to to to the the juicy bits yeah yeah it was almost

284
00:11:44,700 --> 00:11:53,660
um just too far over on the open world scale um because it it was they're off they are

285
00:11:53,660 --> 00:11:59,820
fucking huge um and yeah that's the thing that put me off is that there's just too much shit to do

286
00:11:59,820 --> 00:12:06,220
it it was there was too much shit and it's not a sandbox so it's not even like you could really

287
00:12:06,220 --> 00:12:10,940
fuck around in the environment that you're in it was you are doing quests you are doing a specific

288
00:12:10,940 --> 00:12:18,380
thing so you couldn't exactly much how like something like gta is massive but you can fuck

289
00:12:18,380 --> 00:12:22,940
around on that so you can sort of warrant it being massive whereas things like assassin's creed

290
00:12:22,940 --> 00:12:28,060
origins so huge you're just constantly doing side quests and eventually you lose track of

291
00:12:28,060 --> 00:12:34,380
what it is that you're doing it's just i found it very difficult having put about 60 hours into

292
00:12:34,380 --> 00:12:43,260
origins i found it very difficult to keep uh well keep awake almost like keep paying attention while

293
00:12:43,260 --> 00:12:48,380
i'm playing it was very mind-numbing i do think they tried more with valhalla i think it's a bit

294
00:12:48,380 --> 00:12:52,780
disservice to say that you couldn't mess about in it because you definitely could you could go and

295
00:12:52,780 --> 00:12:58,060
raid any settlement you wanted you just pull up in your boat pull up on foot burn the village to

296
00:12:58,060 --> 00:13:03,100
the ground plunder all the loot steal everything upgrade your little base there was a lot more to

297
00:13:03,100 --> 00:13:10,460
it than origins um but once again it is just far too big and they the systems in place weren't

298
00:13:10,460 --> 00:13:17,980
deep enough to keep you interested in it so it was very the tasks originally become like they're

299
00:13:17,980 --> 00:13:22,620
interested in their fun but quickly they lose their novelty and become quite mundane and like

300
00:13:22,620 --> 00:13:26,780
don't really want to do this again yeah for me anyway um and i think a lot of people

301
00:13:27,580 --> 00:13:31,900
uh tread on that side of the water but obviously you're a big assassin's creed fan you've got

302
00:13:31,900 --> 00:13:37,900
assassin's creed tattoos i am so it's going to be good for you to go back to what it is so what is

303
00:13:37,900 --> 00:13:46,940
it that is exciting about going back to its roots because the the funny thing is i'm not a huge

304
00:13:46,940 --> 00:13:52,380
assassin's creed fan i like valhalla and i like origins once again i'll reiterate i don't think

305
00:13:52,380 --> 00:13:58,860
they should be assassin's creed games but you're massively into the animus part of it whereas i

306
00:13:58,860 --> 00:14:03,500
love the animus part whereas myself when i was because i actually slogged through valhalla's

307
00:14:03,500 --> 00:14:08,940
entire story whenever there was a part where you could get out the animus i was just getting

308
00:14:08,940 --> 00:14:12,540
straight back in it i weren't exploring i weren't looking about i was just like get me back in the

309
00:14:12,540 --> 00:14:18,380
game because they're so different worlds i don't want to play yeah but then they eventually merge

310
00:14:18,380 --> 00:14:23,100
what i love about the animus side of it is that it's almost like you're running two different

311
00:14:23,100 --> 00:14:31,820
stories and eventually they combine and they they mold together very very well um so i i liked

312
00:14:31,820 --> 00:14:39,820
desmond as a character as well i enjoyed who he was and the the relationships and the storyline

313
00:14:39,820 --> 00:14:45,020
that he gains from outside the animus and obviously when he becomes xeo when he's in

314
00:14:45,020 --> 00:14:52,300
the animus i i i like that aspect and i think when you when you dull that down and don't really

315
00:14:52,300 --> 00:14:58,860
pay attention to that it's no longer what assassin's creed is you see you see what i mean

316
00:14:59,740 --> 00:15:06,140
when you because because assassin's creed one wasn't i started at assassin's creed two i've

317
00:15:06,140 --> 00:15:11,900
played one but i started at two so two onwards is where is where my love for assassin's creed

318
00:15:11,900 --> 00:15:18,140
began and it was very very animus based and then when you when you've got yourself into um

319
00:15:18,140 --> 00:15:24,220
um origins and valhalla and i'm trying to remember the fucking one that's in between uh odyssey

320
00:15:24,220 --> 00:15:28,220
odyssey that's one i just couldn't couldn't fucking think of arguably my favorite one

321
00:15:28,220 --> 00:15:34,540
see i it's just it's just too much it's the the thing with something like assassin's creed two

322
00:15:35,500 --> 00:15:43,180
or my other favorite revelations is that it's although it's um sort of open world it's a

323
00:15:43,180 --> 00:15:49,500
little bit more linear so you you you know what you're doing it's not as easy to get distracted

324
00:15:49,500 --> 00:15:54,460
and do something else and because it's not so huge if you were to get distracted it's not going to

325
00:15:54,460 --> 00:15:59,900
take you fucking 10 years to get back to what you were doing and i like that and i prefer the uh the

326
00:15:59,900 --> 00:16:05,740
parkour on the older games than the newer games i just prefer it i think it's better i think the

327
00:16:05,740 --> 00:16:12,220
characters have more story to them i can see i hope they could carry on uh with the game that

328
00:16:12,220 --> 00:16:17,660
they're doing at the moment or the game style in valhalla and origins and odyssey but obviously

329
00:16:17,660 --> 00:16:21,980
just take the tag of assassin's creed off it because i like what they've made yeah yeah i'm

330
00:16:21,980 --> 00:16:27,340
pretty sure they've made or they're making i'm i'm pretty sure i'm right in saying i make they're

331
00:16:27,340 --> 00:16:34,300
making a star wars game um which if they put that formula into a star wars game i am all there

332
00:16:34,300 --> 00:16:40,700
imagine the parkour style of it in star wars open world just how big they don't make they they make

333
00:16:40,700 --> 00:16:46,060
open worlds they don't make open maps you know the odyssey is like the whole of greece it was

334
00:16:46,060 --> 00:16:52,540
humongous it took 20 minutes to sail from one island to another it was mental and uh you know

335
00:16:52,540 --> 00:16:58,220
i ended up fast traveling a lot because i got sick of doing the bloody boat stuff but i digress yeah

336
00:16:58,220 --> 00:17:05,340
if they can emulate that into star wars oh my gosh i'm all you'll be away i will be away god

337
00:17:05,340 --> 00:17:10,460
exciting stuff so i imagine you'll be tuning in for the assassin's creed reveal yeah yeah yeah

338
00:17:10,460 --> 00:17:17,340
i'll be i'll be i'll be getting any info that i can and then when we come back for our 13th episode

339
00:17:17,340 --> 00:17:22,460
i'll talk about it for five minutes because i will have inevitably forgotten everything that will be

340
00:17:22,460 --> 00:17:30,460
mentioned so basim yeah he you don't know who he is then no not really i won't pretend that i do

341
00:17:30,460 --> 00:17:38,060
spoilers for anyone that hasn't played valhalla turn it off uh if you're gonna play it i'm gonna

342
00:17:38,060 --> 00:17:47,100
try and remember loosely because i'm struggling so there's did you play valhalla at all for about

343
00:17:47,100 --> 00:17:51,420
an hour yeah so there's avor the main character i actually read the valhalla book as well that's

344
00:17:51,420 --> 00:17:57,740
how into it i've got um there's avor who you play as and then he's got a brother he's not actually

345
00:17:57,740 --> 00:18:04,060
his brother but he's like adopted brother called sigurd and then sigurd goes missing for a long

346
00:18:04,060 --> 00:18:12,540
time and then he turns up with basim um who who is this character and he's all like yeah i've got

347
00:18:12,540 --> 00:18:19,500
a hidden blade look at this and then i can't remember i'm pretty sure sigurd gives you a

348
00:18:19,500 --> 00:18:24,540
hidden blade and basim's like no i don't feel right about that yeah don't be doing that yeah

349
00:18:24,540 --> 00:18:28,460
he's like top cities cut your fingers off yeah because he's like take a finger and he was like

350
00:18:29,020 --> 00:18:32,220
no i'm doing that we'll just use the blade with all my fingers because it because he

351
00:18:32,220 --> 00:18:36,140
goes because he goes over the top rather than below yeah it doesn't take fingers

352
00:18:36,860 --> 00:18:42,780
yeah why don't they think of that yeah it's dominant um so yeah that's that's that that

353
00:18:42,780 --> 00:18:49,420
happens but the interesting thing is it's hard to remember exactly but there's like another whole

354
00:18:49,420 --> 00:18:52,700
world in it so you've got the animus part of it you've got the valhalla part of it

355
00:18:54,060 --> 00:19:00,940
or the england part of it i guess and then there's a whole other side to valhalla where you go and see

356
00:19:00,940 --> 00:19:06,140
uh the witch doctor i can't remember what they're called seers i believe yeah and you drink a potion

357
00:19:06,140 --> 00:19:11,900
and then you go into midgard basically you essentially kratos's world do you know i mean

358
00:19:11,900 --> 00:19:16,940
you're living in the land of the gods yeah but you when you go in there you are um

359
00:19:18,860 --> 00:19:26,380
uh how am i forgetting his name who's the leader of you know who's four's dad who's the main man

360
00:19:26,380 --> 00:19:32,300
oh odin yeah yeah you so yeah you're you're the norse mythology man i had a brain fire i don't

361
00:19:36,860 --> 00:19:46,700
yeah so you play as you play as uh odin basically and then um sigurd is someone else

362
00:19:47,820 --> 00:19:55,100
and basim is loki so obviously as soon as he becomes loki you start to think well obviously

363
00:19:55,100 --> 00:20:02,220
he's a bit he's a bit naughty he's a bit of a trickster um so yeah the story transpires anyway

364
00:20:02,220 --> 00:20:06,620
um it's all a bit convoluted and confusing i never really understood what was going on

365
00:20:07,180 --> 00:20:11,820
but the interesting part of it right which i never really understood

366
00:20:13,980 --> 00:20:21,660
once the game finishes and you get out the animus yeah and where they've set up the animus

367
00:20:21,660 --> 00:20:27,420
is the grave of evil all right so they've got all the little numbers around his grave and all that

368
00:20:27,420 --> 00:20:39,420
stuff but basim turns up in a t-shirt not just his normal clothes but he's like an assassin

369
00:20:40,780 --> 00:20:45,340
but i'm trying to think i can't remember whether what do you mean he rocks up in a t-shirt what him

370
00:20:45,340 --> 00:20:50,060
himself yeah he's got jeans on and how is he in one thing and then exactly but i'm i'm trying to

371
00:20:50,060 --> 00:20:56,140
think i'm pretty sure and how is he mirage yeah yeah but in mirage just like when he was young

372
00:20:56,140 --> 00:21:00,700
apparently how he became an assassin and stuff that's his story but yeah i can't remember he

373
00:21:00,700 --> 00:21:10,060
either i think what happens is they find the animus machine and then he gets like he he swaps

374
00:21:10,060 --> 00:21:14,220
places with one of them then comes out the animus or something i can't remember it's very weird

375
00:21:14,220 --> 00:21:20,700
yeah but yeah he turns up and then he's like hello evil old friend like leaning over his grave it's

376
00:21:20,700 --> 00:21:25,180
weird you'd have to youtube it doesn't make any sense now i think about it but he's a cool

377
00:21:25,180 --> 00:21:29,180
character he's a cool character i did want to see more from him yeah well now you've got an entire

378
00:21:29,180 --> 00:21:33,180
fucking game coming that's going to be around him yeah don't get me wrong it's been a long time since

379
00:21:33,180 --> 00:21:39,820
they've done an assassin's creed that was you know the old style so if they can uh push it forward

380
00:21:39,820 --> 00:21:46,220
a bit into modern gaming then i think they they could have a really special game but the

381
00:21:46,220 --> 00:21:50,780
assassin's creed games just became so stale that's why i didn't what a strange life cycle they have

382
00:21:50,780 --> 00:21:56,700
so they started with their obviously their old one so so assassin's creed one and then have

383
00:21:56,700 --> 00:22:02,780
developed it into assassin's creed now and it's been so long that they've now been able um

384
00:22:02,780 --> 00:22:10,300
potentially obviously it's not confirmed um able to go back to their roots to make even more games

385
00:22:10,860 --> 00:22:16,380
based off of something that they created to begin i find that type it's it looked like the same sort

386
00:22:16,380 --> 00:22:20,780
of shit with fashion you know i mean how you can make something it goes out of date do something

387
00:22:20,780 --> 00:22:25,580
else and you can go back to that in years because it'll then be back in date it's been so long it

388
00:22:25,580 --> 00:22:30,140
will feel fresh yeah yeah i find that that's so strange because so many games do it world of

389
00:22:30,140 --> 00:22:35,180
warcraft does it with their expansions they always end up returning to old shit it's quite a it's

390
00:22:35,180 --> 00:22:40,380
quite a known thing to do i but i just find it baffling that with big heavy hitting games like

391
00:22:40,380 --> 00:22:47,660
that or even call of duty you can have little slivers of the past but update them um and then

392
00:22:47,660 --> 00:22:55,580
then be exciting how fucking fantastic is that wow yes yes i love it mom

393
00:22:55,580 --> 00:23:04,060
mom caught the lamb hold on quickly what's um what sort of bees make milk

394
00:23:06,940 --> 00:23:12,300
what what sort of bees make milk milk bees boobies

395
00:23:17,820 --> 00:23:22,380
i'm just gonna chuck in a joke every week that's that's my that's my game plan anyway moving on

396
00:23:22,380 --> 00:23:25,500
yeah carry on it's pathetic fucking boobies

397
00:23:29,740 --> 00:23:37,900
yeah i finished it basically i finished i finished the game that takes six hours to complete i

398
00:23:37,900 --> 00:23:44,700
finally did it got that under my belt it only took me two weeks but i've done it uh very fun

399
00:23:44,700 --> 00:23:51,980
i got i got down to seven people in my cult and i finished with 29 i think we're in my cult by the

400
00:23:51,980 --> 00:23:57,340

401
00:23:57,340 --> 00:24:01,660
done i've done it now i think i i don't even think it's installed on the playstation anymore

402
00:24:02,220 --> 00:24:06,620
i think i just deleted it straight away you're cut throat you ain't yeah because i'm done with it

403
00:24:06,620 --> 00:24:14,380
i'm not gonna touch it again but i very very much enjoyed it even the um even making your little

404
00:24:14,380 --> 00:24:21,180
base and all the weird shit you can put in it i enjoyed that i made it uh it was it becomes self

405
00:24:21,180 --> 00:24:27,020
self-sufficient i had my farming plot was farming itself and putting itself it was harvesting

406
00:24:27,020 --> 00:24:34,620
itself i loved it uh and it was just it got it to a good little state after connor's advice on

407
00:24:35,420 --> 00:24:41,980
the uh the the uh rock refineries and the the lumber yards and all that shit and getting as

408
00:24:41,980 --> 00:24:46,700
many as possible to make your life easier so i took his advice and it did make life easier and then

409
00:24:46,700 --> 00:24:52,860
lo and behold i completed it not two hours later so i very much enjoyed it it's a good game ash

410
00:24:52,860 --> 00:24:57,660
hasn't completed it yet well can we do a little spoiler review just tell me what happens at the

411
00:24:57,660 --> 00:25:02,700
end kind of thing why well because i know i won't finish it so it's just the way i am well you will

412
00:25:02,700 --> 00:25:06,380
finish it no i won't i'll never play again probably why that's just the way i'm with it now yeah

413
00:25:06,380 --> 00:25:09,820
probably you've had your fun with it yeah yeah i don't if i'm the last to complete i'll give up on

414
00:25:09,820 --> 00:25:15,420
it you you give give ten seconds one two three four you've got to leave if you haven't if you

415
00:25:15,420 --> 00:25:19,820
want to be spoiled goodbye six seven eight nine ten did you get it right do you fight the devil

416
00:25:19,820 --> 00:25:23,660
at the end you do fight the devil at the end you have the option to fight the devil at the end

417
00:25:23,660 --> 00:25:28,860
so you kill all four of the little mini boss people some of the last one some of them are

418
00:25:28,860 --> 00:25:35,900
quite fucking oh quickly um my game actually bugged out four times very fucking annoying

419
00:25:35,900 --> 00:25:41,900
obviously the dungeons that you go into they have three tiers like three layers and then it's that

420
00:25:41,900 --> 00:25:50,780
boss isn't it of that dungeon and i on the last tier is quite they're quite long tiers um especially

421
00:25:50,780 --> 00:25:56,540
the last ones and obviously you have the different options of when you go up when you go up a level

422
00:25:56,540 --> 00:26:00,700
you can i don't know you can go right and get yourself some fucking logs or you can go straight

423
00:26:00,700 --> 00:26:05,660
and get a new follower blah blah blah anyway i was looking to build up my cult because i only had

424
00:26:05,660 --> 00:26:12,300
seven people and every single fucking time i picked a follower bugged out i'd get to the follower

425
00:26:12,300 --> 00:26:16,620
kill all the little minions that are in there bar one that would disappear and then i'd have to

426
00:26:16,620 --> 00:26:22,060
fucking reload and then do the whole thing again and it happened four times took four times before

427
00:26:22,060 --> 00:26:27,820
i realized just stop picking the fucking follower route very annoying but i digressed once you kill

428
00:26:27,820 --> 00:26:35,500
all four of them the devil uh basically says he was like look i'm gonna sacrifice you now uh

429
00:26:35,500 --> 00:26:42,700
as the ultimate the ultimate sacrifice i don't need you anymore see you later and you either bow

430
00:26:43,260 --> 00:26:49,820
bend the knee or you refuse but naturally i refused because why would you not and then you fight

431
00:26:49,820 --> 00:26:55,180
you know he's got his two little cronies next to him you fight both of them they're a good laugh

432
00:26:55,180 --> 00:26:59,900
and then you fight the devil himself and it was quite a difficult fight and if you

433
00:26:59,900 --> 00:27:06,380
defeat the two cronies and then start fighting the devil if you die you have to do the whole

434
00:27:06,380 --> 00:27:10,460
thing all over again you have to beat those two again it took i think it was like two or three

435
00:27:10,460 --> 00:27:17,740
attempts it took me to do it um but i on one of my attempts i got a god god-like a godly weapon

436
00:27:17,740 --> 00:27:22,140
which is the highest tier weapon you can have they're quite rare to pop up and it did like

437
00:27:22,140 --> 00:27:28,220
fucking 15 damage every hit which in cult of the lamb is quite a lot when the average is like 2.5

438
00:27:28,220 --> 00:27:34,780
so i was hitting quite heavy i got lucky um and then that was it and then you can go back to your

439
00:27:34,780 --> 00:27:40,140
uh little cult and you can crack on doing building them up and doing whatever you can go back into

440
00:27:40,140 --> 00:27:44,540
the room with the devil but obviously the devil's not there there's a teleport in there that you

441
00:27:44,540 --> 00:27:52,860
can't use anymore but other than that you can continue but what's the what's the point because

442
00:27:52,860 --> 00:27:59,740
it's done well you know i mean people ain't gonna feed their selves unless they are fuck them they're

443
00:27:59,740 --> 00:28:03,580
gonna eat each other i've had enough of them now they're done dead to me you may as well just

444
00:28:03,580 --> 00:28:07,260
sacrifice yourself then and just let them everyone live happily ever after well i don't know what

445
00:28:07,260 --> 00:28:10,700
happens when you sacrifice yourself because i haven't actually googled what happens when you

446
00:28:10,700 --> 00:28:16,380
do bend the knee so i'm not sure because i'm sure most people will want to fight the devil

447
00:28:17,100 --> 00:28:20,860
i'm not really sure what happens oh i would have bent the knee so i didn't have to fight a hard

448
00:28:20,860 --> 00:28:26,700
final boss and just been like oh it's not it's not massively hard it's just you get wrapped up in

449
00:28:26,700 --> 00:28:32,300
wanting to get it over with quickly and and like uh patience is key in those types of fights because

450
00:28:32,300 --> 00:28:40,700
it follows the exact same um tactics it's the same attacks over and over again in a loop isn't it it's

451
00:28:40,700 --> 00:28:46,140
like three different attacks so you know what's gonna happen it reminds me of uh guardians of

452
00:28:46,140 --> 00:28:50,860
the galaxy when i thought i finished the game because i clicked the wrong thing in like 10

453
00:28:50,860 --> 00:28:56,540
hours in the credits rolled and i was like wow that was an abrupt ending and then he rung me

454
00:28:56,540 --> 00:29:02,940
up and i was like you didn't go to like the place where everything's gold he's like what i've finished

455
00:29:02,940 --> 00:29:07,820
it i hugged my mom yeah it was the end yeah no yeah you got stuck on that that's the party scene

456
00:29:07,820 --> 00:29:12,540
thing in it i would never have known if i didn't ask you i would have just gone that was a very

457
00:29:12,540 --> 00:29:18,220
strange ending but it's it's done now never finished that game yeah you just watched the

458
00:29:18,220 --> 00:29:22,380
fucking cut scenes i didn't even do that in the end well now i can't understand how you would

459
00:29:22,380 --> 00:29:28,700
happily well not happily but how it took you a year to do valhalla but you won't even put the

460
00:29:28,700 --> 00:29:33,420
effort in to do a fucking six hour campaign on is that because it's only like six hours you know

461
00:29:33,420 --> 00:29:39,100
it's sort of pointless no it's just okay if you took all the combat out and i just had to run

462
00:29:39,100 --> 00:29:43,500
around and then go to a cut scene and run around and do it because i thought the story was fantastic

463
00:29:43,500 --> 00:29:48,300
and the bandit was just the combat was just so boring i really didn't enjoy it it did get a bit

464
00:29:48,300 --> 00:29:53,900
a bit it's fun at first yeah i loved cult of the lamb very cool indie game i very much enjoyed it

465
00:29:53,900 --> 00:30:00,860
but it's it very much is one of those games where once you've killed the final boss there is nothing

466
00:30:00,860 --> 00:30:05,740
else to do kind of like elden ring i was talking about guardians of galaxy but yeah oh i thought

467
00:30:05,740 --> 00:30:09,980
you're talking about cult of the lamb both brilliant games all three of these are brilliant games

468
00:30:10,780 --> 00:30:15,260
by the way what what do you mean you're talking about guardians of galaxy when i said that i'd

469
00:30:15,260 --> 00:30:19,820
rather just walk oh what you'd rather not have the no i like the combat in guardians of galaxy

470
00:30:19,820 --> 00:30:24,700
so boring got so stale i didn't like the enemy types it was just to be fair you played on console

471
00:30:25,500 --> 00:30:30,700
i played it on pc so it obviously would have played differently i even got to the point where

472
00:30:30,700 --> 00:30:34,300
i put it on the easiest setting just so i could get through the combat that's pathetic so quick

473
00:30:34,300 --> 00:30:39,100
yeah but not because it was hard just because i just wanted it done asap it was just waves of

474
00:30:39,100 --> 00:30:45,020
enemies and then story and then waves of enemies and then story no there was nothing to it you

475
00:30:45,020 --> 00:30:49,580
wouldn't have survived doing it on pc to be fair of your shitty wrist you wouldn't have been able

476
00:30:49,580 --> 00:30:57,340
to do it just fuck you how about that oh god come on this is your show keep the fucking thing rolling

477
00:30:57,340 --> 00:31:02,620
fucking show as well what you want about you wrote this list no no no what's the next when it's your

478
00:31:02,620 --> 00:31:07,260
intro you do the topics and you go through it it is my next bit isn't it it's all your bits all

479
00:31:07,260 --> 00:31:12,780
mine what are you bringing to this i'm charisma what are you bringing to this because i am flicking

480
00:31:12,780 --> 00:31:18,220
through this list and there's nothing on here that is you red hot jokes you said that is nothing you

481
00:31:18,220 --> 00:31:24,060
said that is enough that will work with that and i was all right come on let's get this podcast

482
00:31:24,060 --> 00:31:29,020
started because i got fucking what's lord of the rings actually rings of power but i thought you

483
00:31:29,020 --> 00:31:40,860
was going to add something to this what's 89 oh that's the spoiler net um need to make an apology

484
00:31:42,700 --> 00:31:49,740
oliver final fantasy mmo oliver i said in the last episode that it was shit uh because i played it

485
00:31:49,740 --> 00:31:59,500
for a couple of hours and it's not my cup of tea i'm now i think i'm now 60 plus hours in 60 you

486
00:31:59,500 --> 00:32:06,140
tell this guy i don't do a lot uh yeah i'm 60 plus hours in i think um it's fantastic

487
00:32:08,460 --> 00:32:13,740
it's fantastic what a brilliant mmo this is it's it's mecha i'm telling you now world of

488
00:32:13,740 --> 00:32:19,980
warcraft could learn some serious fucking things from this game honestly it don't get me wrong some

489
00:32:19,980 --> 00:32:27,580
of it's a bit a bit skew iffy uh but for the majority of it the combat's great uh the visuals

490
00:32:27,580 --> 00:32:34,220
are great uh and i love the fact that you said you hated the visuals no but they grow on you

491
00:32:34,220 --> 00:32:39,500
honestly they grow on you i'm gonna stop giving game reviews all together because i i shoot myself

492
00:32:39,500 --> 00:32:44,700
in the foot because everyone who listens all 10 of you must probably sit there and think this guy

493
00:32:44,700 --> 00:32:49,580
hates everything and then i come back next week and go i fucking love all of this so this is this

494
00:32:49,580 --> 00:32:54,300
is it after this after this episode i'm not going to come on here anymore and say that this game

495
00:32:54,300 --> 00:32:58,220
shit and that game shit without having given it at least 10 hours worth of gameplay i'll lend you

496
00:32:58,220 --> 00:33:06,780
fifa 22 no don't give me that i don't want that i don't i don't want that except for fifa and cod

497
00:33:06,780 --> 00:33:13,020
but i like cod and i do like fifa but i don't but with that in mind we've been over that before

498
00:33:13,020 --> 00:33:20,700
can we jump on i've uh i'm gonna we're gonna i was thinking maybe we could give each other tasks for

499
00:33:20,700 --> 00:33:25,340
the week force each other to play a game yeah but that's long though isn't it well no not

500
00:33:25,340 --> 00:33:30,380
necessarily you tried that with mass effect yeah this is what i'm saying force you to play mass

501
00:33:30,380 --> 00:33:36,460
effect or cyberpunk you've got to play one of them mass effect is oh jesus christ we can't all be

502
00:33:36,460 --> 00:33:41,820
wrong you just got to get through it you just got to get through that first one it's like um star

503
00:33:41,820 --> 00:33:47,100
wars what do you mean it's like star wars you just got to slog through it well it's not a slog for me

504
00:33:47,100 --> 00:33:53,020
it's slogs for chumps like you slogs for people that don't like city effects it's just a worm

505
00:33:53,740 --> 00:34:00,860
it's the bottom feeder worm yeah anyway final fantasy i won't talk about it for long but

506
00:34:00,860 --> 00:34:07,660
one of my favorite things about it is that we call them alps in the mmo rpg world you might not

507
00:34:07,660 --> 00:34:12,780
understand what yeah alternate alternate ability alternate character alternate character so you can

508
00:34:12,780 --> 00:34:18,140
have more obviously more than one character in the games like world of warcraft if you wanted to be

509
00:34:18,140 --> 00:34:25,420
a certain class say a warrior you had to make that character a warrior what a warrior then um

510
00:34:25,420 --> 00:34:31,660
um but and if say you decided halfway through your leveling career you decided to change your

511
00:34:31,660 --> 00:34:35,980
mind and go actually i want to be a priest you'd have to make a brand new character start all again

512
00:34:35,980 --> 00:34:43,020
from level one final fantasy one character and you can fucking do it all you've got to level it all

513
00:34:43,020 --> 00:34:48,940
up but it it levels up so quick but you can just switch on the fly you ain't got to fucking make

514
00:34:48,940 --> 00:34:52,380
anything new and i love that i think that's fantastic so like the class i'm playing at the

515
00:34:52,380 --> 00:34:57,740
moment it's called a lancer i like it but there's other classes that i've tried that are much more

516
00:34:57,740 --> 00:35:02,940
fun so i don't have to worry about losing all my progress i can just switch have you used the

517
00:35:02,940 --> 00:35:07,260
samurai yet i haven't unlocked it yet you unlock that at level 50 but that is what i'm going to be

518
00:35:07,260 --> 00:35:12,140
jumping on the minute i get that i can't fucking wait because i haven't actually seen any in the

519
00:35:12,140 --> 00:35:16,860
open world what is the difference what can't you use as what or can you only use certain weapons

520
00:35:16,860 --> 00:35:22,220
yeah because so every class has specific weapons that they can only use in order for you to swap

521
00:35:22,220 --> 00:35:30,300
your classes so as a lancer obviously i have a lance if i was to be um a a pugilist

522
00:35:31,820 --> 00:35:37,500
yeah pug pugilist pugilist pugilist basically a fucking geezer that uses knuckle dusters i have

523
00:35:37,500 --> 00:35:42,620
to put on the knuckle dusters and things like that so they do have specific gear and specific

524
00:35:42,620 --> 00:35:49,740
weapons a samurai have a katana samurai has a big old fucking sword and i cannot wait so i've got to

525
00:35:49,740 --> 00:35:59,100
get to 50 i'm 37 at the moment and yeah it's it's good fun oh a little bubble in my throat then

526
00:35:59,100 --> 00:36:03,820
oliver it's very good fun uh and i will leave final fantasy on that because i could talk about

527
00:36:03,820 --> 00:36:10,620
it for a very long time um what other bullshit we got last of us

528
00:36:13,660 --> 00:36:19,100
you got a pitch in here you gotta fuck it because you you yes but we spoke and you said i haven't

529
00:36:19,100 --> 00:36:23,420
seen anything on this listen it's your show to look at anything my show i reel off the

530
00:36:23,420 --> 00:36:27,740
topic when it's your show you reel off the topics and i jump in i have just reeled off the topics

531
00:36:27,740 --> 00:36:32,460
you didn't jump in what's fucking next well let's break this massive pause while i said why don't

532
00:36:32,460 --> 00:36:36,460
you look whilst you're finishing talking then jump straight in i said last of us why aren't you

533
00:36:36,460 --> 00:36:40,460
looking as well it's ridiculous i need a new co-host the only problem is we got nowhere to do it they're

534
00:36:40,460 --> 00:36:45,420
putting nothing into this last of us bit i don't know anything i haven't bothered looking well

535
00:36:45,420 --> 00:36:53,020
that's why you say next up the last of us and i go bang all right pause next up the last of us remake

536
00:36:53,740 --> 00:36:58,540
absolutely crazy the reviews have come out not great i mean they're not bad what do you mean

537
00:36:58,540 --> 00:37:06,380
you said it was 95 and 89 no you don't fucking listen do you getting on my tits sorry the last

538
00:37:06,380 --> 00:37:14,220
of us remake the new one the remake of the first one i'm confused my boy i'm just saying myself now

539
00:37:14,220 --> 00:37:23,180
the last of us remake has metacritic at 89 the last of us remaster and the last of us the original

540
00:37:23,180 --> 00:37:32,940
on ps3 the last of us remastered being on ps4 is on metacritic at 95 right so the remake is six points

541
00:37:32,940 --> 00:37:40,140
below the remaster on ps4 and the original so the remake was the cash grab well you said it

542
00:37:40,140 --> 00:37:44,620
yeah the remake was the attempt at getting some more dough out of a game that needed to be left

543
00:37:44,620 --> 00:37:51,740
alone now i've seen very little i've seen some screenshots and the odd bit of video footage

544
00:37:53,100 --> 00:37:59,580
it looks better so it fucking should um i mean i've seen some complaints saying

545
00:38:01,020 --> 00:38:08,060
they haven't completely changed the way the game plays um some of the combat feels better but still

546
00:38:08,060 --> 00:38:14,780
it's you know it's the last of us so yeah the biggest complaint i see people have is the 70

547
00:38:15,500 --> 00:38:22,620
pounds price tag it's fucking stupid and obviously people are buying it and people are buying the

548
00:38:22,620 --> 00:38:28,300
the special collectors editions and the firefly might i reiterate that this is the guy that has a

549
00:38:29,260 --> 00:38:34,220
last of us tattoo and a last of us bag so if he's not all for it then you must listen

550
00:38:34,220 --> 00:38:39,100
oh yeah i'm not all for it at this point i've got tattoos of everything so don't really listen to me

551
00:38:39,900 --> 00:38:47,180
that's just i just like getting them but it i don't know it's not i don't i really don't understand

552
00:38:47,180 --> 00:38:52,540
sold out on amazon yeah this is what i mean it's popular i don't doubt that it's popular and i

553
00:38:52,540 --> 00:38:58,220
don't doubt that it's that it isn't good but it was good to begin with so you've taken a game

554
00:38:58,220 --> 00:39:04,140
that was already fantastic 65 quid is that's see that's just crazy for what for for better

555
00:39:04,140 --> 00:39:09,180
graphics you know why you know why just but i don't understand i don't you do understand

556
00:39:09,180 --> 00:39:15,260
they're making a last of a series they want them to go oh they want to catch series is fantastic

557
00:39:15,260 --> 00:39:20,300
yeah let me get the game play the game oh it's on ps3 oh it's on ps4 i've got a ps5 well let me find

558
00:39:20,300 --> 00:39:26,300
the nice shiny thing oh this is brilliant yeah you know that's what they're trying to achieve

559
00:39:26,300 --> 00:39:31,580
you can see where they're going with it it just feels like but it's wasted resources released on

560
00:39:31,580 --> 00:39:43,020
ps3 it's beers five we're two years into ps5 what's going on mum was what i don't get it i

561
00:39:43,020 --> 00:39:46,940
really can't understand it i'm not gonna buy i'm gonna wait until it's in the bargain bucket and

562
00:39:46,940 --> 00:39:54,380
even then i won't bother because there's nothing it's a single player campaign game so there is

563
00:39:54,380 --> 00:40:00,060
nothing new so one and done the story has not been changed you may have changed aspects of the combat

564
00:40:00,060 --> 00:40:05,980
the graphics may look better you may have changed the textures of the grass the rain may sound

565
00:40:05,980 --> 00:40:12,060
heavier but it doesn't change the story of the game which is fantastic i'm not ripping the last

566
00:40:12,060 --> 00:40:18,060
of us i'm ripping the fact that it did not need to be done what a waste of resources it has been

567
00:40:18,060 --> 00:40:23,900
yeah they could have been heavily into production for something yeah i think the series is going to

568
00:40:23,900 --> 00:40:29,420
be going to be great oh yeah i think that will be fantastic i cannot wait for it i just think that

569
00:40:30,620 --> 00:40:36,140
on one hand i understand that there will be people who because obviously we're getting on in age i

570
00:40:36,140 --> 00:40:43,580
know you're getting on further than i am but there will be people who are 14 15 16 whatever who

571
00:40:43,580 --> 00:40:50,620
went the same age that i was when i first played the last of us and may want a slice of that but

572
00:40:50,620 --> 00:40:56,140
want it with the updated graphics and everything so i understand that there may be a somewhat of a

573
00:40:56,140 --> 00:41:03,340
market for it but it isn't it weren't something that needs that needed doing it really weren't

574
00:41:03,340 --> 00:41:11,740
and especially for 70 quid what the fuck where does that come from 70 quid 65 yes but yeah but

575
00:41:11,740 --> 00:41:15,980
if i go on the playstation store it'll be fucking 70 quid wouldn't it it's a lot of money like you

576
00:41:15,980 --> 00:41:20,300
say just for textures and graphics and like i say there might be the odd improvement but then there'll

577
00:41:20,300 --> 00:41:27,420
be people out there that have probably played the last of us on ps3 or ps4 multiple times i mean i

578
00:41:27,420 --> 00:41:35,100
bought the last of us uh remaster for ps4 yes so did i so i played it i didn't finish it no

579
00:41:35,100 --> 00:41:38,620
neither did i because i knew what was gonna happen exactly so i just played it i don't know why i

580
00:41:38,620 --> 00:41:46,140
bought it you have so so you have you have the last of us the original ps3 and then you would

581
00:41:46,140 --> 00:41:52,300
have had the people that bought it on ps4 because correct me if i'm wrong you couldn't play ps3

582
00:41:52,300 --> 00:41:57,660
games on ps4 no so that i kind of understand you can play ps4 games on ps5 so did they

583
00:41:58,300 --> 00:42:03,740
because i don't want to get it wrong was it you might not know either but was it ps3 and then

584
00:42:03,740 --> 00:42:09,340
ps4 and then they remastered it or was it ps3 and then they remastered it for ps4 what do you mean

585
00:42:10,860 --> 00:42:15,500
last was one last was one only came out on ps3 so then they remastered it for ps4

586
00:42:15,500 --> 00:42:19,180
and now they came out right at the end of the console generation and now they've

587
00:42:19,180 --> 00:42:24,540
they haven't remade it they've remastered it it's not a remake because nothing story wise has

588
00:42:24,540 --> 00:42:31,500
changed you can't i don't think that you can change little tweaks do little tweaks of of the

589
00:42:31,500 --> 00:42:37,420
combat and the graphics and then call that a remake you've remastered it to a degree i mean

590
00:42:37,420 --> 00:42:42,060
yeah look at final fantasy 7 remake the whole thing bottom up like it's complete i don't know

591
00:42:42,060 --> 00:42:47,340
if you've played it but obviously the comparisons meant i mean one game came out in probably like

592
00:42:47,340 --> 00:42:55,900
90 99 the other one came out in fucking 2021 or whatever it was but yeah i don't know it's

593
00:42:57,420 --> 00:43:01,580
the only thing that would have got me to buy this would have been uh if they'd incorporated the

594
00:43:01,580 --> 00:43:06,060
multiplayer on it because i loved the multiplayer i know you didn't i loved it but yeah they're just

595
00:43:07,020 --> 00:43:11,660
some people will play last of us over and over again i like i said about last of us

596
00:43:11,660 --> 00:43:17,260
two and last was one they're one and done for me kind of like god of war once i've done i'm done i

597
00:43:17,260 --> 00:43:22,780
platinumed it i went back and and mopped everything up because i loved it so much but i i wouldn't

598
00:43:23,820 --> 00:43:28,780
it's a long way to go and start it again but having grown up i didn't like the multiplayer

599
00:43:28,780 --> 00:43:36,780
when i was younger but there's like a 10 year gap so there's been games in the past or just just

600
00:43:36,780 --> 00:43:42,700
general things that i used to hate i look at final fantasy last week well yeah now you love

601
00:43:42,700 --> 00:43:48,940
no man sky obviously they've done a lot of work with that but it doesn't mean that maybe if i was

602
00:43:48,940 --> 00:43:57,660
given the online like the multiplayer now but a ps5 version maybe i'd fucking love it so they've

603
00:43:57,660 --> 00:44:01,500
i don't know why they've got rid of that market why you wouldn't just include the multiplayer

604
00:44:01,500 --> 00:44:04,940
maybe because it costs a lot because you got to always have the service for it and blah blah

605
00:44:04,940 --> 00:44:09,420
blah they are making the factions again but it's a completely different multiplayer component so

606
00:44:09,420 --> 00:44:15,660
i don't know but obviously that's going to be separate anyway so yeah i i i don't um i'm not

607
00:44:15,660 --> 00:44:21,260
ripping anyone who's paid the 65 quid the 70 quid or even more for the different editions you do

608
00:44:21,260 --> 00:44:25,740
whatever you want is your money you're a gamer i'm i'm i'm with we've all got to stand together

609
00:44:26,300 --> 00:44:33,020
but personally i just think it's a waste of money and a waste of time and i don't think my opinion

610
00:44:33,020 --> 00:44:37,980
will change on that because i thought the original was amazing and it didn't need didn't need touching

611
00:44:38,780 --> 00:44:45,500
leave it i i wholeheartedly agree i won't be buying it and i'll be honest with you and this isn't

612
00:44:45,500 --> 00:44:51,420
because i don't like it if that was free on playstation plus i wouldn't i still wouldn't

613
00:44:51,420 --> 00:44:55,740
play it no i wouldn't bother i've just got no interest the story's done i mean i know the story

614
00:44:55,740 --> 00:45:00,620
yeah played the last of us two once again a fantastic game i literally probably would give

615
00:45:00,620 --> 00:45:07,020
that 10 out of 10 i yeah faultless i'm surprised that game even exists the how fluid and everything

616
00:45:07,020 --> 00:45:13,260
it is and the story is phenomenal um but i won't play again because there's no there's no reason

617
00:45:13,260 --> 00:45:21,020
to there is there is no need to and i think i enjoy i enjoy the story more having it as a memory

618
00:45:21,660 --> 00:45:27,420
than i do replaying it all over again it's the same i know people are different my one of my

619
00:45:27,420 --> 00:45:33,820
friends has just got through watching all of game of thrones again love that yeah but for me once

620
00:45:33,820 --> 00:45:38,700
i've watched that and i'm done you know i might watch the odd clip my my favorite i often watch

621
00:45:39,660 --> 00:45:44,300
bits of ragnar lofbrok on vikings on youtube because i like it i wouldn't want to i wouldn't

622
00:45:44,300 --> 00:45:48,140
want to sit through the whole series again because i know there's a load of dad episodes that are

623
00:45:48,140 --> 00:45:52,620
just going to bore the shit out of me yeah i think you can i think you can watch through stuff again

624
00:45:52,620 --> 00:45:58,380
because you can switch off and do other shit in the background and then you you you will know

625
00:45:58,380 --> 00:46:03,100
if there's like i do it with lord of the rings i can happily sit there and watch all of them however

626
00:46:03,740 --> 00:46:09,340
uh i films are different though to tv series yeah but you can watch that shit in the background

627
00:46:09,340 --> 00:46:13,420
you can't fucking play a game in the background can you you have to sit there and really give

628
00:46:13,420 --> 00:46:21,020
it your time to do it which i which is is um yeah he also watched breaking bad again for like the

629
00:46:21,020 --> 00:46:25,660
third time i love breaking the thing is yeah the reason i can understand things like that because

630
00:46:25,660 --> 00:46:31,580
obviously you know how it all folds up um so when you're watching it can you catch a lot of different

631
00:46:31,580 --> 00:46:36,140
things that you did in the first time and each time he's watched he's caught more stuff and i

632
00:46:36,140 --> 00:46:40,300
get that that's cool but like i suppose yeah you can watch that in the background you can not pay

633
00:46:40,300 --> 00:46:44,940
much attention can be doing other things like friends fuck knows how many times i've watched

634
00:46:44,940 --> 00:46:50,860
all of that just in the background just background no easy watching and yeah yeah and i enjoy that

635
00:46:50,860 --> 00:46:54,460
but with games it's completely different you've got to give it your time and attention and i just

636
00:46:54,460 --> 00:47:01,660
can't knowing how long the campaigns are for the last first one and part two it's a lot of time

637
00:47:01,660 --> 00:47:06,540
to devote there and there's no quick you can't just blitz through that shit i know people like

638
00:47:06,540 --> 00:47:12,300
try but it still takes a while it's a story driven game the whole point is to absorb the story and

639
00:47:12,300 --> 00:47:19,100
get immersed in it so yeah you don't want to be burning through that that's that and it that is

640
00:47:19,100 --> 00:47:26,700
that uh yeah next thing it's what it's what we've been playing sorry did i butt in on you fucking

641
00:47:26,700 --> 00:47:31,820
no it's not no it's not just let me do it we had a question on twitter from one of our listeners

642
00:47:31,820 --> 00:47:37,580
sam thank you sam thank you sam very much appreciated and in a nutshell we won't give

643
00:47:37,580 --> 00:47:42,700
his user handle username or his username because we haven't got his permission yeah we're not there

644
00:47:42,700 --> 00:47:47,100
we're not them people no but yeah thanks for the question his question in a nutshell was do you

645
00:47:47,100 --> 00:47:53,980
prefer older games or newer games he gave an example of uh i'm not too clued up on final fantasy

646
00:47:53,980 --> 00:48:03,100
but one of the final fantasies being a lot better than the newer ones yes he the the um it was

647
00:48:04,620 --> 00:48:11,340
do you prefer older games that were essentially let's just read the question that's a good fucking

648
00:48:11,340 --> 00:48:16,540
idea yeah let's do it pod chaps congrats on the 10th why thank you sam we appreciate it

649
00:48:16,540 --> 00:48:22,060
be interesting to know on one of your future pods if you both prefer older quality games or modern

650
00:48:22,060 --> 00:48:28,460
not so good ones i.e final fantasy has been crap since final fantasy 10 but some people prefer

651
00:48:28,460 --> 00:48:34,700
newer because more modern quicker and better graphics etc so leng doggy dog where do you sit

652
00:48:34,700 --> 00:48:42,220
with this it's such a difficult one it's it's so difficult i sat there with stef uh trying to

653
00:48:42,220 --> 00:48:49,100
to really figure out what would be some good games to to add to that question the one that

654
00:48:49,660 --> 00:48:54,220
stef come up with straight away and it is one that i will go with and obviously when we've spoken

655
00:48:54,220 --> 00:48:59,180
about on this episode is assassin's creed 2 and then assassin's creed origins couldn't stand origins

656
00:48:59,180 --> 00:49:05,980
fucking loved assassin's creed 2 now assassin's creed 2 come out in 2009 origins came out in 2017

657
00:49:05,980 --> 00:49:12,140
so there's quite a big gap there and i'm only 25 so when i was 2009 i was a wee little kid

658
00:49:12,140 --> 00:49:19,500
so i can't really go further back than that unfortunately and yeah i i me personally much

659
00:49:19,500 --> 00:49:25,980
prefer assassin's creed 2 and the older ones compared to the new ones i won't say much about

660
00:49:25,980 --> 00:49:31,500
it because we've just fucking spoken about it i'm trying desperately to think of other games

661
00:49:32,220 --> 00:49:38,860
that i much preferred when they first come out well i'll take over what you think i mean i've

662
00:49:38,860 --> 00:49:48,700
got one but yeah you crack on metal gear solid 1 metal gear solid 2 metal gear solid 3 all 10 out

663
00:49:48,700 --> 00:49:58,940
of 10s fantastic best games you could ever play then metal gear solid 4 for ps3 big jump

664
00:50:00,380 --> 00:50:05,980
not really great but it kind of followed on from them in terms of gameplay ps uh then

665
00:50:05,980 --> 00:50:15,500
metal gear solid 5 whilst renowned for being game changing in the genre it just didn't have

666
00:50:15,500 --> 00:50:20,780
the same feel because it went it went open world basically yeah and it seems that nowadays every

667
00:50:20,780 --> 00:50:25,980
game has to be open world it has to be open world it has to have a hundred billion things to do

668
00:50:26,940 --> 00:50:33,020
whereas you're looking at metal gear solid 1 2 and 3 very linear now obviously i was a lot younger

669
00:50:33,020 --> 00:50:38,700
when i was playing these games and i had no money or source of income so i just played what i had

670
00:50:38,700 --> 00:50:43,660
you know things are different then yeah but i probably played metal gear solid 1 2 and 3

671
00:50:44,460 --> 00:50:48,540
especially metal gear solid 2 i must have played that game to completion

672
00:50:49,820 --> 00:50:57,260
at least minimum 10 times i've done it on the hardest setting european extreme it was called

673
00:50:57,260 --> 00:51:03,500
hardest setting european yeah there was there was normal hard extreme and european extreme

674
00:51:04,060 --> 00:51:08,220
i've done it i think i'm pretty sure yeah european extreme you have to do the whole game without

675
00:51:08,220 --> 00:51:13,900
getting spotted i've done that i literally you know and that's this is before the days of trophies

676
00:51:13,900 --> 00:51:19,500
and achievements there's no proof of this but i know i did and i played it over and over and

677
00:51:19,500 --> 00:51:24,620
over again but now with metal gear solid 5 i played it completed it didn't play again

678
00:51:24,620 --> 00:51:29,900
i was just like that's that's that it's open world but there's something to be said for contained

679
00:51:29,900 --> 00:51:37,660
linear stories as opposed to everything being ginormous open world because there's so many

680
00:51:37,660 --> 00:51:43,180
eight times in open world games where you're just traveling from one place to another running back

681
00:51:43,180 --> 00:51:49,820
to somewhere to hand this over or you just don't want all that i think i think in today's day and

682
00:51:49,820 --> 00:51:59,980
age as a games developer i think you deserve some form of respect from having the bollocks to

683
00:52:00,700 --> 00:52:06,700
bring out a game that isn't open world a game that you can that once it is done you are done

684
00:52:07,180 --> 00:52:13,820
that's it you can't milk it for anything else i think it takes it like you just said everyone

685
00:52:13,820 --> 00:52:19,420
wants to play an open world game they want shit to do so coming out of a game that has a 30 hour

686
00:52:19,420 --> 00:52:23,980
campaign and then that's it and there will be no dlc that is the game done you can throw it away

687
00:52:23,980 --> 00:52:29,980
after that i think it's yeah it's it's uh it's something that you don't see much of now and i

688
00:52:30,780 --> 00:52:39,340
yeah i'm all for dlc yeah yeah um i'm gonna bring it up again mass effect trilogy all very linear

689
00:52:39,340 --> 00:52:43,580
you know they're open in terms of you can go to open spaces you can travel to different planets

690
00:52:43,580 --> 00:52:49,660
planets but in terms of it being open world is not there's always you know the story keeps going

691
00:52:49,660 --> 00:52:53,820
because you're always you're going through the motions you're not like i said about valhalla

692
00:52:53,820 --> 00:52:58,940
you're going through 10 15 hours of just shite until you get to the next story bit and then story

693
00:52:58,940 --> 00:53:04,140
bit was always the best bit it was very good and exciting exciting to see where it went uh and mass

694
00:53:04,140 --> 00:53:08,700
effect followed that trend until andromeda and obviously that got ridiculed for its bugs but

695
00:53:08,700 --> 00:53:14,220
it went open world yeah it went massive it went you know you can travel anywhere go to this planet

696
00:53:14,220 --> 00:53:20,140
fucking drive around open vast spaces of nothingness which potentially could end up doing what starfield

697
00:53:20,140 --> 00:53:25,980
done uh does which is nerve-wracking but there you are um so yeah it's something to be said for

698
00:53:25,980 --> 00:53:30,940
contained linear stories where the story just pulls you through rather than you chasing the story

699
00:53:30,940 --> 00:53:38,060
all the time because the trouble i have with rpg's like that the only game that's ever done in my

700
00:53:38,060 --> 00:53:45,980
opinion open world um perfectly like and i mean perfect is the witcher three which is why it's my

701
00:53:45,980 --> 00:53:52,940
favorite game of all time um because there's the main story to follow and you can go and do the

702
00:53:52,940 --> 00:53:56,460
side quests but you get confused with what's the side quests and what's the main quest because the

703
00:53:56,460 --> 00:54:01,580
side quests are so good so important whereas most games you get sucked out of it because you're

704
00:54:01,580 --> 00:54:07,260
following the main quest but then you're going to do 10 side quests they've just got no relevance

705
00:54:07,260 --> 00:54:11,100
to anything you're doing yeah and you've got this really important task you're supposed to be

706
00:54:11,100 --> 00:54:15,420
achieving i.e saving the world you've just gone and helped this woman find her chicken you know

707
00:54:15,420 --> 00:54:20,220
i mean it's like it just seems stupid so it pulls you out of it a little bit whereas the witcher was

708
00:54:20,220 --> 00:54:26,780
always like side quests obviously there are some dumb ones but the witcher was always like like

709
00:54:26,780 --> 00:54:31,900
blurred the lines between main quest and side quests so you you'd get a bit confused and

710
00:54:31,900 --> 00:54:37,900
everything felt important and that's the only game that i can ever say has done that perfectly it's

711
00:54:37,900 --> 00:54:45,900
quite it's quite a difficult question to answer properly because there's there's so many different

712
00:54:45,900 --> 00:54:53,100
genres of games and and titles where some of the first ever some of the first ones were shit and

713
00:54:53,100 --> 00:54:57,180
the latest ones were good some of the latest versions of certain games are good and you know

714
00:54:57,180 --> 00:55:04,060
i mean it's there's so much to choose from and it really does depend on i would probably go more

715
00:55:04,060 --> 00:55:14,300
towards i prefer newer games to older games but that comes from a a graphics kind of place and

716
00:55:15,100 --> 00:55:21,340
i just think that games now are so much better than previous games but they're only better

717
00:55:21,340 --> 00:55:29,100
because of the games before them facts so first time i've ever agreed with you yeah but it makes

718
00:55:29,100 --> 00:55:37,500
complete sense and i think you will always have people who say are 10 20 years older than myself

719
00:55:37,500 --> 00:55:43,980
say the people who are who are who are late 30s early 40s whatever or even maybe slightly younger

720
00:55:43,980 --> 00:55:49,180
that sit in a different gaming generation to me so like i've got a friend called neil who's more

721
00:55:49,180 --> 00:55:55,260
than happy he's got a full-on arcade machine oh with like a billion games on it he's more than

722
00:55:55,260 --> 00:56:00,860
happy to sit there and play on that and he does i'd find it boring as fuck but he loves it because

723
00:56:00,860 --> 00:56:04,620
he's got all his childhood games on it so he's obsessed with it but if you gave me an arcade

724
00:56:04,620 --> 00:56:09,900
machine that had the very first ratchet and clank on it the first god of war i'm not going to play

725
00:56:09,900 --> 00:56:13,180
it i'm not interested in it i might play it for five minutes but then i'm going to go sit on my

726
00:56:13,180 --> 00:56:20,540
ps5 because i prefer how games are now to how games used to be but like i say that's only because

727
00:56:20,540 --> 00:56:27,580
of the games that were it's an impossible discussion because everything yes a question really really

728
00:56:29,660 --> 00:56:37,340
it's uh everything appeals to different people so ie like zelda who played zelda games before

729
00:56:37,340 --> 00:56:43,980
no but stef is a dirty dog absolutely fantastic zelda rocker in her time on n64 still the highest

730
00:56:43,980 --> 00:56:52,140
rate game all time 99 on metacritic um fantastic i played that as a child just over and over again

731
00:56:52,140 --> 00:56:57,020
i got stuck on the water temple for like six months genuinely i couldn't do it and there was

732
00:56:57,020 --> 00:57:02,220
no like there was no cheats for me there was no internet i just i couldn't work out how to do it

733
00:57:02,220 --> 00:57:08,700
you know but i got through it fantastic memories fantastic game same with majora's mask not so good

734
00:57:08,700 --> 00:57:14,940
but still uh same concept applies and then you fast forward i don't know 15 20 years and you got

735
00:57:14,940 --> 00:57:21,500
zelda breath of the wild yeah which is renowned for being once again game changing innovate

736
00:57:21,500 --> 00:57:29,500
innovate innovative that one and um you're welcome yeah thanks dickhead but to me

737
00:57:29,500 --> 00:57:34,220
i got bored of it it's too much nothingness but there people shout from the hills and that is a

738
00:57:34,220 --> 00:57:40,700
huge huge rating on metacritic you know stef loves that game so much she can't bring herself to

739
00:57:40,700 --> 00:57:45,340
complete it yeah no she has not completed i understand because she is she is literally at

740
00:57:45,340 --> 00:57:51,500
the final bit but won't do it and for four years now i have begged her to complete it and it's the

741
00:57:51,500 --> 00:57:58,860
same with um tomb raider she won't complete them because she loves them so much and i i envy them

742
00:57:58,860 --> 00:58:03,180
i envy that sort of love and compassion when it comes to gaming and at the same time i find it so

743
00:58:03,180 --> 00:58:07,100
fucking annoying because it's like you're missing out if you love the game so much do the developers

744
00:58:07,100 --> 00:58:12,780
a favor and finish it so you can enjoy that story but i think i think it's she's not going to be

745
00:58:12,780 --> 00:58:18,940
happy with me saying breath of the world's a bit mid well probably not i'm saying very little when

746
00:58:18,940 --> 00:58:25,180
it comes to zelda because i i i've said in the past that i don't like it but i genuinely haven't

747
00:58:25,180 --> 00:58:31,660
given it any time because i'm not on nintendo um they completely changed the formula with zelda

748
00:58:31,660 --> 00:58:39,580
so zelda from my day like gameboy i mean i played it on the snes uh linked to the past i played it

749
00:58:39,580 --> 00:58:46,780
on the nintendo 64 i was i didn't play on the nes although i did have a nes um they used to be

750
00:58:47,340 --> 00:58:51,660
you'd go in you'd go around it'd be open world yeah but there was no it was like a general

751
00:58:51,660 --> 00:58:55,660
direction but if you didn't listen to where the direction was and you forgot you'd be buggered

752
00:58:55,660 --> 00:58:59,980
you know you just find your way you'd stumble about and you'd come into a dungeon and then

753
00:58:59,980 --> 00:59:06,300
you'd find i don't know uh a bomb glove in that dungeon which is like the special item of that

754
00:59:06,300 --> 00:59:11,340
dungeon and you'll need that bomb glove to carry on through the dungeon and you'll need that bomb

755
00:59:11,340 --> 00:59:16,060
glove to kill the boss all right and then you'd then once you come out that dungeon there'd be

756
00:59:16,060 --> 00:59:19,740
loads of places in the map that needed a bomb glove that you couldn't get to before so you

757
00:59:19,740 --> 00:59:23,820
oh i remember that place i'll go down you know and that was the gameplay loop you go into another

758
00:59:23,820 --> 00:59:28,620
dungeon for a hook shot so then you could fly over caverns you couldn't before in the open world

759
00:59:28,620 --> 00:59:35,100
they took that out completely for a breath of the world and replaced it with like um

760
00:59:36,140 --> 00:59:40,140
there's over like 100 shrines or something stupid more than that and they're just tiny

761
00:59:40,140 --> 00:59:46,060
little puzzles you go in you do a bit and then you get some crappy reward nothing yeah and then

762
00:59:46,060 --> 00:59:52,540
there's like the three or four big bosses but there's no it's just took away all the zelda like

763
00:59:52,540 --> 00:59:57,420
they need if they incorporated the dungeons with breath of the world it would be for me 10 out of

764
00:59:57,420 --> 01:00:03,340
10 yeah but i think with with games like you've said so yourself you got stuck at certain points

765
01:00:03,340 --> 01:00:08,060
because you had nothing you didn't have the internet you didn't have there were no cheat

766
01:00:08,060 --> 01:00:14,060
codes you right so you had to figure that shit out on your own games like that would not survive

767
01:00:14,060 --> 01:00:18,860
now because you can just google everything so you have to come up with something else because

768
01:00:18,860 --> 01:00:22,940
if you go oh fuck i can't get through this wall because i need a certain thing i don't know what

769
01:00:22,940 --> 01:00:27,980
i need most people and you will get but you will get a fair decent amount of people that will

770
01:00:27,980 --> 01:00:32,780
genuinely not bother googling anything and figure it out for themselves but most people and i probably

771
01:00:32,780 --> 01:00:37,180
would throw myself into that category would give it five minutes and go oh fuck it i'll just google

772
01:00:37,180 --> 01:00:41,580
it and it spoils that but i know what you mean you get something and it unlocks an entire half

773
01:00:41,580 --> 01:00:45,420
of a map but that's not what i'm saying i'm not saying about that i'm saying they completely

774
01:00:45,420 --> 01:00:49,340
changed the zelda formula so instead of having the dungeons they took that away and just made

775
01:00:49,340 --> 01:00:54,220
a massive open world with virtually nothing in it it's very pretty it's very cool you can climb

776
01:00:54,220 --> 01:00:58,140
anything you can do but there's not really a lot going on they completely changed the formula

777
01:00:58,140 --> 01:01:04,940
it must have worked because of how popular it is yeah but it works for a certain fan well it

778
01:01:04,940 --> 01:01:09,020
must work for a lot of people because to the point where you have a genshin impact which is

779
01:01:09,020 --> 01:01:13,180
literally a carbon copy just yeah but then there's a lot of people that sit on my side of the fence

780
01:01:13,180 --> 01:01:18,860
it's like this isn't the same with you as assassin's creed it's exactly the same yeah it's not zelda

781
01:01:18,860 --> 01:01:24,540
it's an open world zelda with the a bit of zelda mechanics it's not zelda no more that's gonna be

782
01:01:24,540 --> 01:01:28,780
fuming i know but these are facts but she probably didn't play the zelda's i played when i was a kid

783
01:01:28,780 --> 01:01:34,220
no what's her what's her first zelda game breath of the world why are you asking me questions like

784
01:01:34,220 --> 01:01:39,500
that when i don't know the answers well no i'm just i'm interested uh maybe i don't know i don't

785
01:01:39,500 --> 01:01:45,100
think it was breath of the wild i don't because she's i she would have told me and i will get it

786
01:01:45,100 --> 01:01:50,860
in the year for not fucking remembering because i have a very bad memory but she um there there

787
01:01:50,860 --> 01:01:56,220
will be games before breath of the world that that zelda base that she'll love i mean they started

788
01:01:56,220 --> 01:02:02,380
leaning away from the zelda formula probably ocarina of time ocarina of time was was fantastic

789
01:02:02,380 --> 01:02:07,740
there's like the pinnacle of zelda i say but some people will dislike the direction they've gone

790
01:02:07,740 --> 01:02:15,020
with it like myself and some people will be like this is amazing just depends the flute the ocarina

791
01:02:15,020 --> 01:02:19,180
yeah she has one yeah that's from ocarina of time it's very cool and it actually works yeah i know

792
01:02:19,180 --> 01:02:23,420
i like him i'm a huge fan of zelda and don't get me wrong i enjoyed breath of the world but i was

793
01:02:23,420 --> 01:02:27,580
just like this isn't zelda for me same with you with assassin's creed but going back to what you

794
01:02:27,580 --> 01:02:33,500
said about googling things i 100 fall in that category now back in the day i'd bang my head

795
01:02:33,500 --> 01:02:39,180
against the wall being like if i don't do this myself i'll get no self-satisfaction but nowadays

796
01:02:39,180 --> 01:02:46,060
where my time is more limited and i get you know maybe two hours a night on the playstation if

797
01:02:46,060 --> 01:02:51,340
i'm lucky my time's valuable if i'm stuck on a puzzle and it takes me more than five minutes

798
01:02:51,340 --> 01:02:55,580
and i'm like fuck this i'll just google it yeah because i haven't got time or patience with it

799
01:02:55,580 --> 01:02:58,620
anyway but back in the day i'd bang my head against the wall until i got it you know

800
01:02:59,580 --> 01:03:06,140
yeah so it's all changed it's all changed but yeah the the interesting to ask sam actually so if you

801
01:03:06,140 --> 01:03:14,300
can let us know as you use the final fantasy example the the best example i can think of is

802
01:03:14,300 --> 01:03:19,340
the final fantasy 7 to final fantasy 7 remake because if you played the original final fantasy

803
01:03:19,340 --> 01:03:27,340
7 on the ps1 have you played the the remake on ps4 slash ps5 and what what one do you prefer

804
01:03:27,340 --> 01:03:34,380
because you've got one that is like nostalgia and you played it when you were a kid and i didn't but

805
01:03:34,380 --> 01:03:39,420
i know that's how people feel about it and it and it's lovely well you've got the remake does it

806
01:03:40,060 --> 01:03:46,140
does the remake trump the original you know what do you prefer it's what you want to know i do want

807
01:03:46,140 --> 01:03:50,620
to know your thoughts sam we want to know and we want to know the thoughts of other people because

808
01:03:50,620 --> 01:03:58,300
i thought i thought that when you sent me the screenshot of the it was a tweet on it tweet yeah

809
01:03:58,300 --> 01:04:05,580
i i thought ah one of ash's friends is asking a question and i asked him when we when we met at

810
01:04:05,580 --> 01:04:14,540
the studio today i'll call it a studio wtbhq i asked him whether or not uh you were a friend sam

811
01:04:14,540 --> 01:04:21,900
and he said no i like that i like that someone completely fucking random has asked us a question

812
01:04:21,900 --> 01:04:27,900
and we've managed to feel about 15 minutes he is a friend now is he a friend now he's become my

813
01:04:27,900 --> 01:04:32,620
friend he's become our friend he's a friend of the show oh sorry sam friend of the show sam

814
01:04:32,620 --> 01:04:39,260
friend of the show listen to this right sam first friend of the show so what so in 200 episodes sam

815
01:04:39,260 --> 01:04:43,900
will be the first friend of the show it'll be the very first friend of the show and the first 10

816
01:04:43,900 --> 01:04:47,900
people to send connor's gonna be fucking fuming first 10 people to send us money i'm gonna get

817
01:04:47,900 --> 01:04:58,060
towed does that mean if i send you some money no no i'm gonna get it done on my foot so it rubs off

818
01:04:59,180 --> 01:05:07,020
on the palm of your hand but no really honestly thanks for your question sam um it's lovely to

819
01:05:07,020 --> 01:05:11,020
uh have some engagement yeah have some engagement have some feedback have some conversation and it

820
01:05:11,020 --> 01:05:14,940
gives us talking points rather than us scratching around in the dirt trying to think about

821
01:05:15,580 --> 01:05:19,900
stuff to talk about yeah because that is what we do we open up the equivalent of an empty bin that

822
01:05:19,900 --> 01:05:24,300
hasn't been washed and try and see if there's any scraps at the bottom and so far it's been working

823
01:05:24,700 --> 01:05:31,500
so if you do want to send questions in like sam uh the twitter is at what's the button button um

824
01:05:32,220 --> 01:05:39,100
and what's the instagram is at what's the buttons is it podcast yeah that's that's it at what's the

825
01:05:39,100 --> 01:05:44,380
buttons podcast what's the button so if you got any questions feel free to send them to us um at

826
01:05:44,380 --> 01:05:52,380
either of them we will be sure to uh talk about them we've also started putting up well i'll put

827
01:05:52,380 --> 01:06:00,780
up one but i'll put up more uh reels on instagram little clips that we've gained and i would love it

828
01:06:00,780 --> 01:06:05,500
if because we get more people that see them than we do our actual fucking posts that we've put on

829
01:06:05,500 --> 01:06:11,260
instagram i would love for people to bombard that with comments telling ash to put on his fucking

830
01:06:11,260 --> 01:06:16,140
mic when he does his clips so we can hear what he's saying and if people are screaming because

831
01:06:16,140 --> 01:06:22,460
all of mine it's all allowed so everyone's screaming whereas on his can't hear fuck all

832
01:06:22,460 --> 01:06:28,620
and it's annoying because i he messaged me he's like i've got this clip everyone was screaming

833
01:06:28,620 --> 01:06:33,020
but you can't hear it that's what people want to hear man they want to hear the screaming when i

834
01:06:33,020 --> 01:06:37,180
put some of mine up you'll understand because people go oh you sound like an idiot i'll tell

835
01:06:37,180 --> 01:06:40,780
you i love it when you put yours up i'll be turning the volume down going fucking oh that's

836
01:06:40,780 --> 01:06:46,300
annoying i wish there was no sound to this no i'm telling you now i'm telling you now people will

837
01:06:46,300 --> 01:06:51,420
agree with it i don't think so but yeah once again thanks for your question sam we haven't really

838
01:06:51,420 --> 01:06:57,500
answered it if i had to go and sit on one side of the fence do i prefer older games or newer games

839
01:06:57,500 --> 01:07:04,140
i would say i prefer newer games i prefer newer games but i don't want to go over the whole thing

840
01:07:04,140 --> 01:07:09,980
again but one more thing i will add is what older games suffer from is a lot of what i said on mass

841
01:07:09,980 --> 01:07:14,540
effect one a lot of running about with nothing going on you know they've they've streamlined

842
01:07:14,540 --> 01:07:18,780
that because the you need a lot of retention and especially in open world games i watched a

843
01:07:18,780 --> 01:07:23,340
documentary once it was like they need something to happen or to see something or to be engaged

844
01:07:23,340 --> 01:07:28,540
by something in an open world every like 45 seconds or something yeah and anything less than

845
01:07:28,540 --> 01:07:32,300
that even if it's like a mountain over there or there's a fire over there there needs to be

846
01:07:32,300 --> 01:07:38,700
something constantly engaging the player older games don't really hold that retention and it's

847
01:07:38,700 --> 01:07:43,740
hard sometimes nostalgia is best left as nostalgia you go back and try and play an old game you're

848
01:07:43,740 --> 01:07:51,180
like i agree i 100% agree world of warcraft classic does exactly that and i can't do it exactly

849
01:07:51,180 --> 01:07:57,900
exactly so yeah i'd say i saw it with lang dog on that on the newer game side um but don't get me

850
01:07:57,900 --> 01:08:06,060
wrong there's a lot of games i wish were remastered they might ruin it that's that then so we do what

851
01:08:06,060 --> 01:08:12,300
we've been playing have you actually been playing anything yeah it's a staple it's a staple of the

852
01:08:12,300 --> 01:08:16,300
podcast yeah but last week you haven't played anything and i don't know if you've played

853
01:08:16,300 --> 01:08:22,540
anything this week well i've seen you pop online every now and then regardless we're talking about

854
01:08:22,540 --> 01:08:27,420
it well what have you been playing call of duty right well that's that been done i've been playing

855
01:08:28,380 --> 01:08:33,500
you saw my call of duty clip you saw you saw that triple kill sem text if you didn't see it go on

856
01:08:33,500 --> 01:08:39,340
watch the buttons podcast on instagram and watch the clip yeah what's the clip i'll go for it

857
01:08:39,340 --> 01:08:46,540
we had no chance of winning it was a 3v3 we was down the bottom of the cliff they was at the top

858
01:08:46,940 --> 01:08:53,820
the circle was was about to move we will never know whether it pulled towards them up the mountain

859
01:08:53,820 --> 01:09:00,140
or it pulled away down either way i don't see a way we win because if it pulls away we've got

860
01:09:00,140 --> 01:09:04,460
to run out in front of them while they just beam us off the top of the cliff if it pulls to them

861
01:09:04,460 --> 01:09:09,740
we've got to try and run uphill when they know there's only one way for us to get up there

862
01:09:09,740 --> 01:09:15,260
i got beamed as you can see in the clip i'm down i'm i'm in trouble i'm not down but i'm in trouble

863
01:09:16,300 --> 01:09:23,500
i threw a sem text i got a hit a hit marker it didn't break his armor it just hit it just hit

864
01:09:23,500 --> 01:09:30,220
him the second one i threw came up with the big notification that it's stuck to this individual

865
01:09:30,220 --> 01:09:36,860
this individual panicked this individual ran to his teammates screaming for help

866
01:09:37,740 --> 01:09:46,460
unaware of the situation they said what's going boom victory royale a triple kill

867
01:09:46,460 --> 01:09:53,820
sem text yeah they must have been fuming yeah you would be fucking fuming in my time of playing call

868
01:09:53,820 --> 01:09:58,700
of duty and as as he stated it still says i don't know if these are facts but if you go on the

869
01:09:58,700 --> 01:10:03,180
leaderboards on core duty it still says i'm in the top zero percent for kills and i i stopped

870
01:10:03,180 --> 01:10:11,260
playing it for about a year um and i've probably thrown god say i say throw thousands yeah say i

871
01:10:11,260 --> 01:10:17,340
throw one sem text a game i've probably thrown three thousand sem texes um and i've probably

872
01:10:17,340 --> 01:10:21,820
got about five kills in the whole time and there's three of them there's three of them right there

873
01:10:21,820 --> 01:10:29,180
yeah so yeah that was a it was a joyous occasion and many lulls were had this day uh what a victory

874
01:10:29,180 --> 01:10:35,580
royale it was but yeah i've basically been playing core duty i i dabbled in destiny uh last friday i

875
01:10:35,580 --> 01:10:41,340
believe or saturday had a little go got sucked right back into it but when the boys want to drop

876
01:10:41,340 --> 01:10:46,540
into caldera unfortunately it's called not for vansk i'm there i'm dropping in with the boys

877
01:10:46,540 --> 01:10:52,060
uh but when the boys aren't available i'm jumping back into destiny and i'm cruising on through

878
01:10:52,700 --> 01:10:59,900
i love that i love the enthusiasm about you yes i'm final fantasy haven't touched the playstation

879
01:10:59,900 --> 01:11:07,740
whatsoever and call of the lamb oh yeah and call of the lamb yeah i i i felt a duty to complete

880
01:11:07,740 --> 01:11:14,860
call of the lamb because i promised everyone that i would so i did that quick time and then respect

881
01:11:14,860 --> 01:11:22,780
that and then uh off the back of the last episode saying how i felt bad because i'd i'd i'd pulled

882
01:11:22,780 --> 01:11:29,820
stef into eso again and then just dropped her there uh i went back to eso and am thoroughly

883
01:11:29,820 --> 01:11:37,100
enjoying it i only play it when i'm when i'm with stef uh so so that i'm not missing out on anything

884
01:11:37,100 --> 01:11:41,500
with her and she's not missing out on anything with me uh she's free to play it whenever she

885
01:11:41,500 --> 01:11:48,460
fucking wants um and then in the other times i'm playing final fantasy trying to get hold of a

886
01:11:48,460 --> 01:11:54,540
mount you gotta wait you gotta get about a good decent way through the main story and it took me

887
01:11:54,540 --> 01:11:58,860
hours to realize that i was doing all sorts of side quests going where the fuck do i get one

888
01:11:58,860 --> 01:12:05,740
of these mounts why didn't you just google it i did after about 20 hours um and some of the mounts

889
01:12:05,740 --> 01:12:14,380
that you can buy oh i'm gonna spend some money you can be a snowman a full-on snowman with gloves

890
01:12:14,380 --> 01:12:19,500
and everything and when you run you're in the snowman and when you run you lift up the snowman's

891
01:12:19,500 --> 01:12:24,780
head and you're in it just fucking running it looks fantastic and there's just there's just

892
01:12:24,780 --> 01:12:31,020
loads of shit how much how much are we talking it is 12 it's on sale at the moment about nine quid

893
01:12:31,020 --> 01:12:37,900
so i'm i'm gonna be getting it and there's loads of other shit so it yeah it's not looking good

894
01:12:37,900 --> 01:12:43,180
breath it's not looking good but they you have to pay a monthly subscription much like world of

895
01:12:43,180 --> 01:12:47,740
warcraft and the bit i love about it is when i bought it got 30 days free hit level 30 they

896
01:12:47,740 --> 01:12:53,260
gave me 15 days free as well so i've got another two weeks for free and i'm hoping that when i hit

897
01:12:53,260 --> 01:12:59,020
say level 50 or 60 they give me some more game time there is a glitch at the moment which i read

898
01:12:59,020 --> 01:13:05,180
a little bit about before i got back into like playing final fantasy and it said that players

899
01:13:05,180 --> 01:13:13,980
were logging in and had uh millions worth of gold or they call it gil or jill whatever um and that

900
01:13:13,980 --> 01:13:21,420
the final fantasy developers were praising people who were giving that money back to the creators

901
01:13:21,420 --> 01:13:24,860
and they were rewarding them because obviously they're logging in and it's a nice community

902
01:13:24,860 --> 01:13:31,420
in there going well this ain't mine anyway when i started playing about 10 hours in i had about

903
01:13:31,420 --> 01:13:39,180
7 000 gold i logged in yesterday over a million wow i'm not gonna say fuck off

904
01:13:41,500 --> 01:13:48,460
i'm gonna keep that dough i turned to stef and i went i've i've been given the glitch so where's

905
01:13:48,460 --> 01:13:52,300
that come from then i don't know it's a it's a glitch or something what do they say when they're

906
01:13:52,300 --> 01:13:57,420
praising people for giving it back how are they doing that i don't know they're because you can

907
01:13:57,420 --> 01:14:03,180
obviously you can talk you can talk to support and i'd imagine because i haven't done it yet but on

908
01:14:03,180 --> 01:14:08,460
world of warcraft they're called games masters and you can physically you used to be able to and you

909
01:14:08,460 --> 01:14:11,820
still sort of can but they made it slightly more difficult but you used to be able to physically

910
01:14:11,820 --> 01:14:16,460
talk to someone like a live chat and they could do whatever they fucking wanted with your account

911
01:14:16,460 --> 01:14:20,140
they could make you float in the sky if they wanted to or just flat out kill you obviously

912
01:14:20,140 --> 01:14:24,700
the abuse of power so i would imagine it's the same with final fantasy where you can just talk

913
01:14:24,700 --> 01:14:29,900
to someone and i'd imagine you'd go i've logged in and i've got all this money that i didn't that's

914
01:14:29,900 --> 01:14:36,300
not mine uh take it away so that sounds like an awful lot for where you're at in the game then

915
01:14:36,300 --> 01:14:42,380
it is an awful lot when you when you um how much you average in a quest like a couple hundred

916
01:14:43,980 --> 01:14:47,420
i'm sitting with the millies so you need to you need to look into

917
01:14:47,420 --> 01:14:52,140
what rewards these these are getting for and in this cash back oh yeah i maybe i should have a

918
01:14:52,140 --> 01:14:56,300
look just to see because they might give you the snowman may yeah maybe they give me a mount or

919
01:14:56,300 --> 01:15:04,540
something like that or i just pay the 12 dollars and keep my millions and build upon that millions

920
01:15:05,740 --> 01:15:12,140
million i'll find out i'll find out if it's worth it for me this time next week i'll be i'll be

921
01:15:12,140 --> 01:15:19,820
upset because i've been banned let you pay a month subscription first then they'll ban me

922
01:15:19,820 --> 01:15:26,060
other than that i haven't really been playing anything else i was going to before we started

923
01:15:26,060 --> 01:15:31,420
the podcast but i haven't so i'll do it after is redownload battlefield haven't done that yet i

924
01:15:31,420 --> 01:15:38,060
saw a clip of it today looks delicious it does look very good and i just want i just want in it

925
01:15:38,060 --> 01:15:43,900
it was everyone in a lift going up classic battlefield and they had they put two shields

926
01:15:43,900 --> 01:15:49,980
on the lift and obviously it was just full on fucking warfare when um when the lift doors

927
01:15:49,980 --> 01:15:54,780
opened and the people that were in the lift were the ones that that were victorious and i just want

928
01:15:54,780 --> 01:15:59,820
that sort of gameplay again and also i want i'd like a little bit more of an excuse to go on the

929
01:15:59,820 --> 01:16:04,940
playstation and play with people like yourself and and mark and other people um because there

930
01:16:04,940 --> 01:16:10,060
aren't many people that i play with on the laptop so something like battlefield is very much something

931
01:16:10,060 --> 01:16:14,300
you can just pick up and drop whenever you want and like you say you always drop in with the boys

932
01:16:14,300 --> 01:16:20,940
well we might be dropping in on battlefield yes sir and that is that that's me that's you that's us
