comic books, movies, whatever. So what have you

00:01:29.560 --> 00:01:31.200
guys been doing? What have you been into recently?

00:01:31.620 --> 00:01:34.640
I'm still reading my Try Guns. Almost done. I

00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:37.599
got one more book. Nice. I want to watch that

00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:39.439
anime, that new one that just came out. You've

00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:43.780
read five books already? Well, four, but I'm

00:01:43.780 --> 00:01:46.500
almost done with the fourth one. Oh, there's

00:01:46.500 --> 00:01:48.939
five? I thought there was six. Well, there's

00:01:48.939 --> 00:01:53.700
the one regular and then the maximum. Oh, so

00:01:53.700 --> 00:01:55.959
there's six with the regular. Okay. Yeah, yeah.

00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:59.280
Oh, okay, okay. So, just been going through that.

00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:04.180
Still pretty good? Oh, yeah, dude. Nice. It gets

00:02:04.180 --> 00:02:08.039
a little crazy sometimes. Sometimes the story

00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:10.659
is a little hard to follow, but it's not too

00:02:10.659 --> 00:02:14.000
bad. I do want to read them. They look awesome.

00:02:15.139 --> 00:02:17.680
Yeah, they're good. They do get a little redundant,

00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:23.620
but not bad. I started Stellar Blade. Nice. Yeah,

00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:26.520
dude. That game is so good. I'm having a blast

00:02:26.520 --> 00:02:28.780
playing that. Is it like a hack and slash? Is

00:02:28.780 --> 00:02:31.419
that what it is? Yeah, I know you like those.

00:02:31.909 --> 00:02:34.370
It's kind of like a Dark Souls kind of thing.

00:02:35.449 --> 00:02:36.930
I don't know if I thought that. Yeah, the combat

00:02:36.930 --> 00:02:41.750
was pissing me off at the beginning. Yeah. Is

00:02:41.750 --> 00:02:43.090
it sluggish, though? Once I got the feel for

00:02:43.090 --> 00:02:46.030
it. No, it's not sluggish. It's just when you

00:02:46.030 --> 00:02:48.289
dodge, you can still get hit. Yeah, see, that

00:02:48.289 --> 00:02:50.569
drives me crazy. And if you're in the middle

00:02:50.569 --> 00:02:53.930
of a combo, you can't cancel it. Yeah, that drives

00:02:53.930 --> 00:02:57.650
me crazy, dude. Yeah, it's tough. I still struggle

00:02:57.650 --> 00:03:00.090
sometimes. Well, and then all that, and then...

00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:02.800
Dark Souls is just slow on top of it. It's like,

00:03:02.819 --> 00:03:05.860
Jesus. Yeah. No, this is fast. It's definitely

00:03:05.860 --> 00:03:07.620
way more fast paced. All right. That's kind of

00:03:07.620 --> 00:03:09.340
like, like the new God of Wars are kind of that

00:03:09.340 --> 00:03:11.219
way. Like they had that same stuff, but they're

00:03:11.219 --> 00:03:14.199
also like quick. So it's not too bad. I'd say

00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:16.020
it's probably faster than that because Kratos

00:03:16.020 --> 00:03:17.780
does feel sluggish. Yeah, he does sometimes,

00:03:17.900 --> 00:03:21.379
but yeah. No, it's good, dude. It's fun. I love

00:03:21.379 --> 00:03:24.840
the little, this game is so good with like rewarding

00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:28.639
exploration. Oh yeah, I love that. That's cool,

00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:31.879
yeah. Because so many games have this giant open

00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:35.419
world and give you nothing. And in this game,

00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:39.020
there's just little things to find. And all the

00:03:39.020 --> 00:03:41.080
costumes and stuff are pretty cool. That's cool.

00:03:41.340 --> 00:03:44.340
But it's fun. I've been playing the hell out

00:03:44.340 --> 00:03:46.659
of it. I was schooning for that number one spot.

00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:52.120
Yeah, number one schooner. I think you mentioned

00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:56.159
it when we recorded, but the leaderboards weren't

00:03:56.159 --> 00:03:59.580
working right. Yeah. So we can go back. I had

00:03:59.580 --> 00:04:02.400
to go back. Yeah. I had to go back and get that

00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:04.740
because some dude took our number one spot. Yeah,

00:04:04.759 --> 00:04:07.639
we can't have that. We can't have that. No. I

00:04:07.639 --> 00:04:10.060
actually found him on Instagram and followed

00:04:10.060 --> 00:04:13.219
him. Oh, nice. Nice. Yeah, yeah. That's cool.

00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:18.420
But I had to take that spot back. Yeah. I've

00:04:18.420 --> 00:04:21.220
been trying to stop playing on my phone at nighttime.

00:04:21.439 --> 00:04:23.819
So I bought like a little book light and I've

00:04:23.819 --> 00:04:27.240
been reading books in bed. And I started that

00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:30.139
Dungeon Crawler Carl book. Yeah, that looked

00:04:30.139 --> 00:04:32.259
interesting. I was interested in that book. Isn't

00:04:32.259 --> 00:04:34.279
it good? It's pretty good. I'm not super far.

00:04:34.360 --> 00:04:37.160
I'm like 40, 50 pages into it. But it's good,

00:04:37.220 --> 00:04:40.339
man. I like it. Yeah. I see it recommended all

00:04:40.339 --> 00:04:41.800
over the place. Yeah, I did too. I've seen a

00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:44.300
lot of it, so I'll have to check it out. It's

00:04:44.300 --> 00:04:48.779
almost, well, you guys need to watch Solo Leveling.

00:04:48.819 --> 00:04:51.860
Yeah, I know. I do want to check that out. It's

00:04:51.860 --> 00:04:55.250
worth it. Yeah. But it's almost like that. you

00:04:55.250 --> 00:04:58.689
know it's like levels up his his person and stuff

00:04:58.689 --> 00:05:02.870
like that that's cool so but yeah that's pretty

00:05:02.870 --> 00:05:05.529
much true when i like reading a book before i

00:05:05.529 --> 00:05:07.170
go to bed and that helps me a lot just like helps

00:05:07.170 --> 00:05:11.009
me like you know d uh like i don't know just

00:05:11.009 --> 00:05:13.449
like compressed yeah decompress and stuff yeah

00:05:13.449 --> 00:05:17.990
yeah yeah well dude sleeping puts me to i mean

00:05:17.990 --> 00:05:21.240
reading puts me to sleep yeah Yeah. That's what

00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:24.420
sucks. I read like three pages and I'm out. So

00:05:24.420 --> 00:05:28.160
I don't ever make any progress. All right. Cool.

00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:34.779
Who's next? I bought, well, so when we went to

00:05:34.779 --> 00:05:37.879
do the books and stuff, book shopping and all

00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:41.500
that, I just thought, I don't know why this popped

00:05:41.500 --> 00:05:44.800
in my head, but I never like opened a pack of

00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:48.209
cards. Yeah, for whatever reason, like in my

00:05:48.209 --> 00:05:50.370
whole lifetime. So I find that hard to believe,

00:05:50.389 --> 00:05:53.790
bro. I never have, dude. I don't know. I swear

00:05:53.790 --> 00:05:57.470
we've had Pokemon cards. We've had cards, but

00:05:57.470 --> 00:05:59.930
I've never opened them. Yeah, I could have sworn

00:05:59.930 --> 00:06:03.069
that you did, but maybe not. I mean, if I did,

00:06:03.189 --> 00:06:06.209
that wasn't. Must not have been a good pool.

00:06:06.529 --> 00:06:09.509
Well, that was when I was three years old or

00:06:09.509 --> 00:06:11.470
something. I don't know. You never got any for

00:06:11.470 --> 00:06:13.790
like your birthday or Christmas? No, I've never

00:06:13.790 --> 00:06:17.759
gotten packs. Okay. So I don't know. I guess

00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:21.000
if I was at that point that they weren't, I mean,

00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:22.980
Pokemon's always been huge, but I guess that

00:06:22.980 --> 00:06:26.519
wasn't the thing. I don't know. Whatever. Yeah.

00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:31.259
So I bought three packs for like eight bucks

00:06:31.259 --> 00:06:34.339
each. I was like, dude, fuck this. Yeah. So I

00:06:34.339 --> 00:06:36.339
remember you were telling me about the Medizus.

00:06:36.379 --> 00:06:39.220
And I warned you, I warned you when you bought

00:06:39.220 --> 00:06:41.139
those that they weren't going to be the last

00:06:41.139 --> 00:06:44.759
three that you bought. Yeah, I mean... And now

00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:48.660
he has like 600 packs. They were, if it wasn't

00:06:48.660 --> 00:06:51.439
for the price. Well, Pokemon, yeah, but I'm just

00:06:51.439 --> 00:06:53.879
saying, now you bought three booster boxes of

00:06:53.879 --> 00:06:56.199
MetaZoo. No, no, no, no, no, no. I bought five.

00:06:56.740 --> 00:06:58.980
Yeah, get it right, dude. Get it right. I bought

00:06:58.980 --> 00:07:05.439
five. But, dude, $13, $14 a box. I like the MetaZoo,

00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:07.399
dude. They're cool. I like them. I do, too. Yeah.

00:07:07.959 --> 00:07:11.269
So, I mean... A lot of people are shitting on,

00:07:11.370 --> 00:07:14.350
like, actually the playing of it. The game's

00:07:14.350 --> 00:07:16.470
kind of silly. Yeah, the game itself is kind

00:07:16.470 --> 00:07:18.449
of silly, but I like the art and the cards and

00:07:18.449 --> 00:07:21.230
stuff of them. I do, too. Are the quality of

00:07:21.230 --> 00:07:23.370
the cards good? Yeah, they're fine, yeah. Yeah,

00:07:23.490 --> 00:07:26.769
dude. The cards themselves are fine. Yeah. I

00:07:26.769 --> 00:07:29.949
think it's just the way they have the game set

00:07:29.949 --> 00:07:33.120
up. Just the physics or the mechanics of it is

00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:35.740
just really goofy. Yeah, it is. It's super goofy.

00:07:35.839 --> 00:07:38.180
And it's not very balanced compared to, like,

00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:40.540
the other, like, Pokemon and stuff, but. Yeah.

00:07:40.779 --> 00:07:43.199
Well, I mean, they don't have, like, giant tournaments

00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:45.160
for that. I mean, they have tournaments and stuff,

00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:46.920
but, yeah, not, like, obviously not the size

00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:48.399
of, like. But I'm sure it's not as serious as,

00:07:48.459 --> 00:07:50.680
like, Pokemon or Yu -Gi -Oh or whatever. No,

00:07:50.740 --> 00:07:54.540
no. No. If you can buy 36 packs for $14, no,

00:07:54.680 --> 00:07:56.420
it's not going to be that serious. Yeah. Yeah.

00:07:57.180 --> 00:07:58.879
But they're dope, though, dude. The art's fucking

00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:02.120
cool. Yeah, I love them, yeah. I mean, they have

00:08:02.120 --> 00:08:05.259
the normal, like, hollow and reverse hollow stuff,

00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:09.620
so. But, I don't know, the art's dope, and it's

00:08:09.620 --> 00:08:13.060
all, like, cryptids and monsters and a couple

00:08:13.060 --> 00:08:15.180
of other stuff. Like, the UFO one's pretty dope.

00:08:15.379 --> 00:08:19.180
Yeah. They got cool stuff. It's got, like, aliens

00:08:19.180 --> 00:08:22.079
and then, like, men in black and stuff like that.

00:08:22.139 --> 00:08:24.720
It's pretty cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But, yeah,

00:08:24.779 --> 00:08:28.060
dude, they're dope. I've been liking them. I

00:08:28.060 --> 00:08:30.639
haven't really opened too much. Jacob opened

00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:34.059
a couple the other night. Yeah, they're pretty

00:08:34.059 --> 00:08:36.240
cool. You opened more than I thought you would.

00:08:37.620 --> 00:08:40.679
Yeah. I don't care. I have a shit ton, but I

00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:43.720
was like, oh, damn, Jacob's... It catches on,

00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:46.500
bro. It'll get under your skin, I'm telling you.

00:08:46.519 --> 00:08:49.799
It is fun, bro. Yeah, it is. Jacob actually pulled

00:08:49.799 --> 00:08:53.440
some really good cards. I know. I was telling

00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:57.509
you that story about Dad getting mad at me. what

00:08:57.509 --> 00:09:01.029
yeah remember the fred store that we had oh yeah

00:09:01.029 --> 00:09:04.889
he gave me like to go get milk and you bought

00:09:04.889 --> 00:09:07.669
ten dollars worth of money and he went from just

00:09:07.669 --> 00:09:09.509
like go get a thing of milk and i came back with

00:09:09.509 --> 00:09:12.429
like a milk and like two packs of pokemon cards

00:09:12.429 --> 00:09:15.970
and he's like where's the rest of my money oh

00:09:15.970 --> 00:09:19.110
man that's so funny i was like i bought some

00:09:19.110 --> 00:09:22.960
pokemon cards And then you were telling, dad

00:09:22.960 --> 00:09:24.659
was there too. You were telling dad, he's like,

00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:27.360
I wouldn't get mad at that. Well, you did. Yeah,

00:09:27.379 --> 00:09:29.960
he did though. He was like, don't ever spend

00:09:29.960 --> 00:09:33.220
money on cards like that again. Yeah. That's

00:09:33.220 --> 00:09:34.700
so funny. Mom does the same thing. She's like,

00:09:34.779 --> 00:09:37.720
I'd never say that or do that. I know. Oh man,

00:09:37.779 --> 00:09:39.940
that was funny. I think that was the last time

00:09:39.940 --> 00:09:43.759
I bought a pack of cards. Yeah, probably. Traumatized.

00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:45.220
You didn't get anything good out of it. It wasn't

00:09:45.220 --> 00:09:47.899
even worth it. Dude, I did actually get a nice

00:09:47.899 --> 00:09:50.220
card that was like a foil, but it had like a

00:09:50.220 --> 00:09:52.179
freaking crease in it. Oh, yeah, that sucks.

00:09:52.299 --> 00:09:55.179
I was mad, dude. Oh, that's funny. All right,

00:09:55.179 --> 00:09:57.139
well, Ryan, I hope you don't spend too much more

00:09:57.139 --> 00:10:00.059
money on the cards. Not for a while. I get enough.

00:10:00.500 --> 00:10:02.000
Yeah, you say that a lot. Maybe like $300 more.

00:10:02.279 --> 00:10:03.940
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, this should be enough.

00:10:05.539 --> 00:10:07.860
They'll start piling up and then I'll have too

00:10:07.860 --> 00:10:09.620
much and be like, I can't do this anymore. Yeah,

00:10:09.659 --> 00:10:13.639
that's exactly what I did, yeah. 24th. Oh, my

00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:18.340
God. 24th what? That's when I get my next box

00:10:18.340 --> 00:10:22.919
of cards. Oh man, that's 10 days. Holy shit,

00:10:22.980 --> 00:10:26.379
bro. Why does it take so long? Weather issues.

00:10:28.440 --> 00:10:32.620
How though? This one's coming from Nevada and

00:10:32.620 --> 00:10:34.799
the three packs that I already have came from

00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:36.940
California. How are they having weather issues?

00:10:37.220 --> 00:10:41.799
It's a fucking desert, bro. They're having Desert

00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:44.899
Storms out there. Yeah, Desert Storms. No, that's

00:10:44.899 --> 00:10:58.440
over. Oh, man. Bro, I think you've kicked your

00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:01.019
Barb's addiction. You're going to be getting...

00:11:01.019 --> 00:11:05.340
You're going to start fiending for cards. Yeah,

00:11:05.779 --> 00:11:09.320
maybe. I mean, I'm going to be taking laxatives

00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:13.740
in a day or two, so. Yeah. Flush out all those

00:11:13.740 --> 00:11:15.500
barbiturates. Yeah, get them all out of there.

00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:18.840
I won't be constipated, that's for sure. I hope

00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:21.039
when you wake up from anesthesia, you just, like,

00:11:21.059 --> 00:11:27.200
rip a pack. I'm going to tell mom to bring one.

00:11:31.559 --> 00:11:36.029
Oh, God, dude. I'm ripping packs. Just clutching

00:11:36.029 --> 00:11:37.809
it while they're fucking performing surgery.

00:11:37.909 --> 00:11:41.649
I'm gonna put one up my ass. The doctor's gonna

00:11:41.649 --> 00:11:45.190
be like, What the fuck is a midget? There's a

00:11:45.190 --> 00:11:53.250
foil card in here. It's brown foil. I bought

00:11:53.250 --> 00:11:56.730
that, and then I bought two of the Arizona Tees,

00:11:56.730 --> 00:12:03.049
the Fallout ones. The Apple one was good. But

00:12:03.049 --> 00:12:05.269
the orange, I think it was orange, I think. Yeah,

00:12:05.269 --> 00:12:07.870
the orange. No, that wasn't that good. Oh, yeah.

00:12:07.970 --> 00:12:11.269
Okay. Yeah, it was all right. But, dude, they're

00:12:11.269 --> 00:12:14.529
strong. Yeah, the guy who bought it, the guy

00:12:14.529 --> 00:12:16.070
was like, just to let you know, these are above

00:12:16.070 --> 00:12:18.629
average. Yeah, he was like, this is stronger

00:12:18.629 --> 00:12:21.389
than a monster. I was like, I don't know if that's

00:12:21.389 --> 00:12:25.929
true, but. How much is that? 190. That's crazy,

00:12:26.169 --> 00:12:28.889
Jesus. It is a lot for an energy drink, but they

00:12:28.889 --> 00:12:31.029
don't, it doesn't have the taurine in it or the.

00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:33.220
You know, the other stuff. Yeah. Because taurine

00:12:33.220 --> 00:12:36.340
raises your heart rate. It's still crazy. Like,

00:12:36.340 --> 00:12:40.039
really quick. Or not, like, high, but taurine

00:12:40.039 --> 00:12:43.519
really is, like, acts quick. Mm -hmm. So, it

00:12:43.519 --> 00:12:45.379
doesn't, I don't think it has any of that, but

00:12:45.379 --> 00:12:47.559
I think it's just the caffeine more than anything.

00:12:47.860 --> 00:12:51.259
Mm -hmm. But I would like to get the other ones

00:12:51.259 --> 00:12:53.700
and just try them out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So,

00:12:53.720 --> 00:12:56.679
I mean, dude, I have drinking this shit ton of

00:12:56.679 --> 00:12:59.720
energy drinks. Yeah. When you take a pre -workout,

00:12:59.720 --> 00:13:02.000
when you take pre -workout, energy drinks don't

00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:04.139
mean anything. Yeah, I used to take that five

00:13:04.139 --> 00:13:11.860
days a week. Oh, man. I mean, I stopped drinking

00:13:11.860 --> 00:13:14.019
on that, but I had that liquid death ones. They

00:13:14.019 --> 00:13:16.419
were okay. Yeah, those were pretty good. I like

00:13:16.419 --> 00:13:19.980
those. Yeah. I just don't like sparkling water.

00:13:20.579 --> 00:13:23.039
Yeah. I just don't like carbonated water. I'm

00:13:23.039 --> 00:13:24.580
not big on it either, but for some reason the

00:13:24.580 --> 00:13:25.960
liquid deaths are just, I don't know what it

00:13:25.960 --> 00:13:29.100
is. I'm okay with those. Those I can drink. And

00:13:29.100 --> 00:13:30.759
I'm not even a big fan of a lot of their stuff.

00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:33.159
It's just the soda ones, dude. I love their soda

00:13:33.159 --> 00:13:35.460
ones. They have the ones that taste like soda.

00:13:35.740 --> 00:13:37.860
I'm obsessed with those, dude. They're so good.

00:13:38.860 --> 00:13:42.039
Yeah, they are good. They're good. I'd still

00:13:42.039 --> 00:13:44.950
rather just drink those. Zero sugar soda. Yeah,

00:13:45.009 --> 00:13:46.750
I don't know. Like I said, I've completely given

00:13:46.750 --> 00:13:49.289
up on soda and all that stuff, so it's a good

00:13:49.289 --> 00:13:52.309
substitute. Yeah, Sprite's the only one I drink

00:13:52.309 --> 00:14:01.309
now. Cool. Anything else? No. Just cards. A lot

00:14:01.309 --> 00:14:05.830
of them. Oh, me and Chris were playing that Isaac

00:14:05.830 --> 00:14:09.090
game too, The Binding of Isaac. That card game

00:14:09.090 --> 00:14:10.990
that I have. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that game's

00:14:10.990 --> 00:14:12.750
fun, yeah. I brought it over to his house one

00:14:12.750 --> 00:14:15.129
day. He's like, oh, dude, I love this game. It

00:14:15.129 --> 00:14:17.070
is fun. It's a good game. Well, he was big into

00:14:17.070 --> 00:14:20.269
that game, right? Yeah, yeah. And he's a big

00:14:20.269 --> 00:14:23.970
card game guy, too. Yep, nice. He likes the tabletop

00:14:23.970 --> 00:14:25.690
stuff. Yeah, that game's fun, though. Yeah. But

00:14:25.690 --> 00:14:27.309
we played at his house the other night, and then

00:14:27.309 --> 00:14:29.309
he came over today to play it, and I beat him

00:14:29.309 --> 00:14:35.490
all three times. Nice. So, but it is fun, though.

00:14:36.110 --> 00:14:40.850
But they have a... expansion for it, and it's

00:14:40.850 --> 00:14:44.049
like $20 or something. I really do want to get

00:14:44.049 --> 00:14:47.110
it, but... It don't seem too bad. No, but I mean,

00:14:47.129 --> 00:14:49.850
this is the first time I've touched this game

00:14:49.850 --> 00:14:53.289
in fucking five years, so... Yeah. Dude, I'd

00:14:53.289 --> 00:14:56.070
love to play some tabletop with you guys. Dude,

00:14:56.769 --> 00:14:59.730
that Isaac game is actually really fun. It's

00:14:59.730 --> 00:15:06.250
not really, like, eventful, but it is fun. Yeah,

00:15:06.309 --> 00:15:09.759
I remember when you first... uh bought it i don't

00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:13.419
know well i don't know you um you came home like

00:15:13.419 --> 00:15:15.399
for a week or something and we played it in the

00:15:15.399 --> 00:15:18.500
kitchen it was pretty fun yeah yeah yeah it was

00:15:18.500 --> 00:15:22.320
fun but then now like the expansion almost has

00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:24.500
like double the cars i think so it makes it twice

00:15:24.500 --> 00:15:29.240
as big nice so it's cool sounds exactly like

00:15:29.240 --> 00:15:33.220
the game yeah pretty much i think that came out

00:15:35.079 --> 00:15:37.440
Before Afterbirth? I think it came out before

00:15:37.440 --> 00:15:42.379
one of the big DLCs. And then I think the expansion

00:15:42.379 --> 00:15:46.320
is the rest of it. I'm not too sure. I don't

00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:47.919
know if it was supposed to be Rebirth or what.

00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:51.080
Jacob, what do you got? So I've been getting

00:15:51.080 --> 00:15:55.059
more into Silent Hill. I played and beat Silent

00:15:55.059 --> 00:15:59.240
Hill Homecoming. It's not good. Pretty much any

00:15:59.240 --> 00:16:04.029
game past Origins is really not good. They're

00:16:04.029 --> 00:16:07.490
all pretty... There's really nothing good about

00:16:07.490 --> 00:16:09.289
them except for the soundtracks. The soundtracks

00:16:09.289 --> 00:16:16.590
are... Is that the last PS2 one? Yeah. What about

00:16:16.590 --> 00:16:20.269
Downfall? We're going to get there. I know you're

00:16:20.269 --> 00:16:26.330
excited. But no, Homecoming is just... It's gameplay

00:16:26.330 --> 00:16:29.009
really isn't that great. The combat just sucks

00:16:29.009 --> 00:16:31.690
and the puzzles you can easily brute force. like

00:16:31.690 --> 00:16:34.009
there was two puzzles in that game that, you

00:16:34.009 --> 00:16:35.350
know, I was just trying to figure them out, you

00:16:35.350 --> 00:16:37.149
know, just play around with them so I could figure

00:16:37.149 --> 00:16:39.309
out, you know, what I was supposed to do. And

00:16:39.309 --> 00:16:43.929
I accidentally saw both of them. So, and then,

00:16:43.929 --> 00:16:49.490
um, the story is also like pretty basic. I mean,

00:16:49.529 --> 00:16:52.929
it's not good, but it's really not that bad either.

00:16:53.330 --> 00:16:55.590
I just, I mean, it's a good concept. I like the

00:16:55.590 --> 00:16:58.789
idea of like, uh, it's like a soldier coming

00:16:58.789 --> 00:17:04.029
back home. and they find out that the majority

00:17:04.029 --> 00:17:05.869
of the people in their hometown are missing,

00:17:06.089 --> 00:17:08.609
so they have to go to Silent Hill in order to

00:17:08.609 --> 00:17:11.789
free them. But I feel like that could be a good

00:17:11.789 --> 00:17:13.630
concept, where it's like a soldier coming back

00:17:13.630 --> 00:17:17.410
home to Silent Hill, and they find out Silent

00:17:17.410 --> 00:17:20.049
Hill is this creepy town now full of this fog,

00:17:20.289 --> 00:17:22.950
and maybe they're haunted about something that

00:17:22.950 --> 00:17:27.269
they did in the war. By the way, I think that

00:17:27.269 --> 00:17:29.410
game is inspired by the first Silent Hill movie,

00:17:29.529 --> 00:17:33.829
which... also is pretty bad. Dude, I'll disagree

00:17:33.829 --> 00:17:35.269
with you on that one. The first Silent Hill movie

00:17:35.269 --> 00:17:38.269
was pretty good. I mean, it's not... I don't

00:17:38.269 --> 00:17:40.369
heavily dislike the first Silent Hill movie.

00:17:40.470 --> 00:17:43.309
It's alright. It's fine. It's not a great movie,

00:17:43.430 --> 00:17:45.930
but yeah. It had the hot creepy nurse in it.

00:17:48.789 --> 00:17:53.450
That's redeeming. So yeah, I started playing

00:17:53.450 --> 00:17:56.890
Downpour, which is the other PS3 Silent Hill.

00:17:56.910 --> 00:18:01.339
That one I do not like at all. I think the story

00:18:01.339 --> 00:18:05.640
is better, but the exploration just sucks because

00:18:05.640 --> 00:18:08.200
there's like five different side quests that

00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:11.039
you can do at a time. And it's not really clear

00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:14.480
when you're doing a side quest. And it's fairly

00:18:14.480 --> 00:18:17.200
open world, too. You can go into like different

00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:20.380
buildings and there's a good amount of open space.

00:18:20.500 --> 00:18:22.259
And I just don't think that works that well with

00:18:22.259 --> 00:18:24.079
Silent Hill, especially considering there's only

00:18:24.079 --> 00:18:26.299
so much direction that it gives you. Is there

00:18:26.299 --> 00:18:28.519
anything in those open spaces or is it just open

00:18:28.519 --> 00:18:34.619
space? No, not really. Oh, okay. Just kind of

00:18:34.619 --> 00:18:38.299
like germs? Yeah, well, I mean, there is weapons

00:18:38.299 --> 00:18:41.000
and medkits and stuff like that, but otherwise,

00:18:41.140 --> 00:18:46.180
it's fairly empty. Yeah, so I went and saw Return

00:18:46.180 --> 00:18:49.319
to Silent Hill, and it was easily the worst film

00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:52.880
out of the three Silent Hill movies. It's absolutely

00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:55.240
garbage. There's really nothing good about it.

00:18:55.720 --> 00:18:59.460
The characters were butchered to shit. They changed

00:18:59.460 --> 00:19:03.180
so much about the story. The visuals really don't

00:19:03.180 --> 00:19:07.480
look that great. It's just not good at all. But

00:19:07.480 --> 00:19:09.119
I still wanted to see it anyway, just to see

00:19:09.119 --> 00:19:11.240
how horrible it was going to be. Apparently it

00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:15.900
has like a 2 % of Rotten Tomatoes. Yeah, I mean,

00:19:15.920 --> 00:19:17.819
I heard it was pretty bad, but damn. One more

00:19:17.819 --> 00:19:21.380
Silent Hill thing. There's a completely original

00:19:21.380 --> 00:19:23.940
Silent Hill book called Silent Hill Betrayal.

00:19:24.140 --> 00:19:28.269
For reading that, it's okay. There's two things

00:19:28.269 --> 00:19:30.769
about it that I think aren't that great. The

00:19:30.769 --> 00:19:33.390
first thing is, it just seems that, what's it

00:19:33.390 --> 00:19:35.950
called, rehash similar events that happen in

00:19:35.950 --> 00:19:40.450
the games, in the books. And it's not like they're

00:19:40.450 --> 00:19:42.950
similar, it's almost like they're identical,

00:19:43.210 --> 00:19:45.930
I guess you could say. The other thing too is

00:19:45.930 --> 00:19:49.309
that it seems like the reading level is lower

00:19:49.309 --> 00:19:52.990
than it needs to be. Sometimes when two characters

00:19:52.990 --> 00:19:55.190
are talking to each other, it doesn't feel as...

00:19:55.649 --> 00:20:00.089
mature as it could be. So something like Eric

00:20:00.089 --> 00:20:05.970
could read? That's probably above my level. Is

00:20:05.970 --> 00:20:08.450
there pictures in the book? Yeah, there's a few

00:20:08.450 --> 00:20:11.630
pictures. You might be able to get through it.

00:20:11.809 --> 00:20:14.869
Yeah, that's not bad, yeah. Dude, every time

00:20:14.869 --> 00:20:17.490
I pick up a book now, I pick it up backwards,

00:20:17.730 --> 00:20:22.869
dude. I'm so used to reading it backwards. That's

00:20:22.869 --> 00:20:25.099
funny. All right, Jacob, anything other than

00:20:25.099 --> 00:20:28.839
Silent Hill this week? Yeah, I played and beat

00:20:28.839 --> 00:20:32.200
Dispatch, and that was a pretty good game. Oh,

00:20:32.220 --> 00:20:34.940
really? Oh, yeah, that's that new superhero game,

00:20:35.039 --> 00:20:38.599
right? Yeah. It's pretty fun, though. I only

00:20:38.599 --> 00:20:41.279
beat it once. There's multiple endings. There's

00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:43.059
so many different choices that you can make throughout

00:20:43.059 --> 00:20:44.720
the game, so I think I'm going to go back and

00:20:44.720 --> 00:20:50.059
do the exact opposite of what I did for my first

00:20:50.059 --> 00:20:52.140
playthrough. Is it like a tail cell game? Is

00:20:52.140 --> 00:20:56.730
that what it's like? um kind of okay there's

00:20:56.730 --> 00:21:00.289
like an actual gameplay part of it okay i know

00:21:00.289 --> 00:21:03.190
telltale games are like mostly just choices yeah

00:21:03.190 --> 00:21:05.849
you're one character and you make choices but

00:21:05.849 --> 00:21:10.289
there's an actual uh main gameplay part i guess

00:21:10.289 --> 00:21:12.630
you could call it okay where you have like a

00:21:12.630 --> 00:21:15.849
certain amount of characters right yeah um you're

00:21:15.849 --> 00:21:20.200
surveying a certain area And there's crimes that

00:21:20.200 --> 00:21:22.039
happen, and you have to choose which characters

00:21:22.039 --> 00:21:26.279
you want to send to that crime. And then, depending

00:21:26.279 --> 00:21:29.980
on who you send, depends on whether or not they

00:21:29.980 --> 00:21:33.960
were successful in stopping that crime. Alright,

00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:37.480
yeah, let's see. So, I mean, I know, what was

00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:39.079
it, a couple weeks ago, we watched a bunch of

00:21:39.079 --> 00:21:44.200
movies. Yeah. We watched Mad God, which was...

00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:46.740
I mean, visually it was cool, but otherwise,

00:21:46.859 --> 00:21:49.400
what a weird fucking movie that was. Yeah, it

00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:52.519
was definitely weird. It was like no story or

00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:55.640
anything. It was just a bunch of cool stop animation

00:21:55.640 --> 00:21:58.940
kind of stuff. Yeah. I mean, the amount of work

00:21:58.940 --> 00:22:00.579
that went into it is... Yeah, I mean, it was

00:22:00.579 --> 00:22:04.440
impressive for sure, but it was just a weird

00:22:04.440 --> 00:22:09.319
movie. Just like no story. Yeah, yeah. Then we

00:22:09.319 --> 00:22:12.660
watched Good Boy, which was honestly an incredibly

00:22:12.660 --> 00:22:16.190
boring movie. yeah mediocre boy it was yeah i

00:22:16.190 --> 00:22:19.170
didn't like it that much honestly um and then

00:22:19.170 --> 00:22:21.130
we watched death stream which was like the best

00:22:21.130 --> 00:22:23.309
one out of the three that none of us expected

00:22:23.309 --> 00:22:27.170
it's probably one of the best horror movies i

00:22:27.170 --> 00:22:29.069
watched in a long time dude yeah it's actually

00:22:29.069 --> 00:22:31.509
really good it was about like a youtube really

00:22:31.509 --> 00:22:34.069
like that like checking out a haunted house and

00:22:34.069 --> 00:22:35.549
like trying to survive it and stuff but it was

00:22:35.549 --> 00:22:37.930
actually pretty good i liked it i thought i was

00:22:37.930 --> 00:22:39.890
gonna hate that movie yeah it looked really stupid

00:22:39.890 --> 00:22:41.349
but it actually turned out to be pretty good

00:22:41.349 --> 00:22:45.299
so It was really good. It's like a comedy horror

00:22:45.299 --> 00:22:48.960
movie. They did a good mixture of funny and horror.

00:22:49.799 --> 00:22:53.380
They did that actor, I don't know his name, but

00:22:53.380 --> 00:22:55.440
he did a really good job being annoying, but

00:22:55.440 --> 00:22:59.099
you also wanted him to succeed. It was a pretty

00:22:59.099 --> 00:23:04.839
good mix. The typical streamer. Just that annoying.

00:23:05.319 --> 00:23:10.700
Just obnoxious. It was good. I definitely recommend

00:23:10.700 --> 00:23:14.180
that one. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, for sure. And

00:23:14.180 --> 00:23:16.819
then we watched Sweet Home, which we'll talk

00:23:16.819 --> 00:23:20.099
about later. And then, let's see, not much else.

00:23:20.119 --> 00:23:21.779
I've been playing the Vita still. I started a

00:23:21.779 --> 00:23:24.240
game called Nun Attack, where you play as a bunch

00:23:24.240 --> 00:23:28.940
of nuns just, like, shooting evil spirits and

00:23:28.940 --> 00:23:30.680
everything. It's fine. It's a little, like, nice.

00:23:30.680 --> 00:23:32.440
I've never even heard of that game. It's weird.

00:23:32.680 --> 00:23:34.420
It's kind of like a mobile game. It's like a

00:23:34.420 --> 00:23:38.200
touchscreen RTS type of game. It's fine. It's

00:23:38.200 --> 00:23:40.119
okay. It's not bad, but it's not the best game

00:23:40.119 --> 00:23:43.089
ever made. That's on the Vita? Yeah, I think

00:23:43.089 --> 00:23:44.609
it might have been a mobile game that they ported

00:23:44.609 --> 00:23:48.490
over to Vita. But it's decent. I'm having fun

00:23:48.490 --> 00:23:52.970
with it. And then, yeah, like Ryan said, we went

00:23:52.970 --> 00:23:54.890
shopping. I got a couple of video games. I picked

00:23:54.890 --> 00:23:58.809
up Zybots for the Atari Lynx, which I've been

00:23:58.809 --> 00:24:01.250
playing a little bit of. It's an old arcade game.

00:24:01.589 --> 00:24:03.329
The arcade game is actually pretty cool. There's

00:24:03.329 --> 00:24:04.829
actually a place right down the road that I played

00:24:04.829 --> 00:24:08.029
it on. The arcade game is cool because the joystick

00:24:08.029 --> 00:24:10.730
actually twists. So when you want to turn to

00:24:10.730 --> 00:24:12.309
the left or the right, you actually twist the

00:24:12.309 --> 00:24:13.809
joystick to the left or the right. That's cool.

00:24:13.990 --> 00:24:16.369
Yeah, it's cool. The game doesn't do that on

00:24:16.369 --> 00:24:19.150
the links because you just use the D -pad, but

00:24:19.150 --> 00:24:22.009
I don't know. It's a really cool concept. Yeah,

00:24:22.069 --> 00:24:25.789
other than that, I've been playing a little Ragnarok,

00:24:25.809 --> 00:24:27.210
trying to finish that game up. I've got to do

00:24:27.210 --> 00:24:29.470
all the cleanup on that, so get that plat for

00:24:29.470 --> 00:24:32.410
that game. Yeah, and then they freaking shadow

00:24:32.410 --> 00:24:35.150
dropped a God of War prequel game that I bought

00:24:35.150 --> 00:24:37.910
that I want to play. Yeah, dude. That looks dope.

00:24:37.970 --> 00:24:41.359
Yup. Well, so I'm trying to get to that, but

00:24:41.359 --> 00:24:44.039
I know it looks awesome. Yeah. I think that's

00:24:44.039 --> 00:24:45.680
going to be the next thing I start. Yep. Probably

00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:48.319
what I'm going to do too. Yep. Yep. So I love

00:24:48.319 --> 00:24:51.059
God of War, bro. Yeah. Same. And like a frigging

00:24:51.059 --> 00:24:52.740
prequel, like expanding the story. That sounds

00:24:52.740 --> 00:24:56.759
so dope. All right, guys, what have you guys

00:24:56.759 --> 00:24:58.339
been listening to? Or what do you guys been into

00:24:58.339 --> 00:24:59.859
recently out there? Let us know. We like hearing

00:24:59.859 --> 00:25:02.640
from you guys. So, but all right, that's it.

00:25:02.680 --> 00:25:04.059
That's what we've been enjoying. So let's go

00:25:04.059 --> 00:25:06.400
ahead and jump into our view for Sweet Home.

00:26:05.149 --> 00:26:07.789
Thirty years ago, there was a great artist, Ichiro

00:26:07.789 --> 00:26:10.309
Mamiya. He built a mansion deep in the mountains,

00:26:10.450 --> 00:26:12.930
far from the city, and painted his frescoes there.

00:26:13.369 --> 00:26:15.470
He had a wife and child, and the three of them

00:26:15.470 --> 00:26:17.769
lived happily together, but some great misfortune

00:26:17.769 --> 00:26:20.569
befell them, and all three passed away. In the

00:26:20.569 --> 00:26:22.490
thirty years since then, no one has dared to

00:26:22.490 --> 00:26:24.490
go near the mansion, which has come to be feared

00:26:24.490 --> 00:26:27.950
as haunted. Now, five members of a TV crew have

00:26:27.950 --> 00:26:29.730
entered this forbidden place to report on the

00:26:29.730 --> 00:26:32.089
artworks painted by the genus Mamiya, but here

00:26:32.089 --> 00:26:35.019
a tragedy unfolds. The mansion shakes, the ceiling

00:26:35.019 --> 00:26:37.980
collapses, and they are now trapped inside. Ghosts

00:26:37.980 --> 00:26:40.259
of the Mamiya family appear. Can the five find

00:26:40.259 --> 00:26:43.000
a way out? How many will survive? A terrifying

00:26:43.000 --> 00:26:52.240
battle begins in Sweet Home. Sweet Home was developed

00:26:52.240 --> 00:26:56.220
by Capcom and published by Capcom in 1989 for

00:26:56.220 --> 00:26:59.720
the Nintendo Famicom. This is another Japanese

00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:01.500
exclusive that was never released over here.

00:27:02.119 --> 00:27:04.880
This game is actually based on a movie with the

00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:07.759
same name. The stories are pretty similar, actually.

00:27:07.799 --> 00:27:10.500
The game has a couple of differences. The game

00:27:10.500 --> 00:27:15.099
director, Tokuro Fujiwara, he was actually the

00:27:15.099 --> 00:27:16.900
director of Ghosts and Goblins, and he worked

00:27:16.900 --> 00:27:19.799
on the Mega Man series, too. So he's a pretty

00:27:19.799 --> 00:27:24.160
prolific Capcom developer at the time. He directed

00:27:24.160 --> 00:27:25.920
the Mega Man games? I think he was the director

00:27:25.920 --> 00:27:29.579
for the Mega Man games, yeah. Nice. Which I think

00:27:29.579 --> 00:27:32.259
came... After? No, it was about the same time,

00:27:32.299 --> 00:27:33.799
I think. I think Mega Man 1 had already been

00:27:33.799 --> 00:27:36.460
out at this point, but... Yeah. It was at 85,

00:27:36.759 --> 00:27:39.500
right? I don't remember how early it was, but

00:27:39.500 --> 00:27:42.779
yeah, probably around that time, yeah. Actually,

00:27:42.880 --> 00:27:46.700
both the movie's producer, Juzo Itami, and director,

00:27:46.940 --> 00:27:51.140
Kiyoshi Kurosawa, they actually worked with Fujiwara

00:27:51.140 --> 00:27:52.980
to help make the game. I don't think they, like,

00:27:53.000 --> 00:27:54.990
you know... were there day to day, but I think

00:27:54.990 --> 00:27:57.250
they helped him talk about the script and, and

00:27:57.250 --> 00:27:59.569
ideas and stuff of the movie to help make the

00:27:59.569 --> 00:28:01.789
game. So, which I think actually helped a lot

00:28:01.789 --> 00:28:04.950
because this game is pretty close to the movie.

00:28:05.009 --> 00:28:06.950
And I think it, it, you know, it's a pretty decent

00:28:06.950 --> 00:28:09.170
game. So, and then the other big thing to mention

00:28:09.170 --> 00:28:11.630
obviously is that this game was a huge inspiration

00:28:11.630 --> 00:28:15.250
for the resident evil series. Um, like a lot

00:28:15.250 --> 00:28:17.150
of the stuff in resident evil probably wouldn't

00:28:17.150 --> 00:28:19.049
be there if it wasn't for this game. As a matter

00:28:19.049 --> 00:28:20.829
of fact, I think resident evil actually started

00:28:20.829 --> 00:28:25.880
out as a remake of this game. Yeah. This game

00:28:25.880 --> 00:28:28.420
was picked by Ryan. Ryan, what was it about this

00:28:28.420 --> 00:28:32.420
game that you were interested in? Definitely

00:28:32.420 --> 00:28:36.220
the inspiration for Resident Evil. Those older

00:28:36.220 --> 00:28:41.039
Resident Evil games are just so good. I'm a big

00:28:41.039 --> 00:28:45.480
horror guy too. I just like the old retro horror

00:28:45.480 --> 00:28:49.559
stuff in this game. Definitely stuck out. Yeah,

00:28:49.619 --> 00:28:51.339
this game is definitely one of the big ones.

00:28:51.420 --> 00:28:52.859
It's kind of weird that we didn't get this one.

00:28:52.940 --> 00:28:54.539
I know it's an RPG and they weren't big back

00:28:54.539 --> 00:28:56.480
then, but I don't know. I feel like this game

00:28:56.480 --> 00:28:58.960
would have done good. I think this was kind of

00:28:58.960 --> 00:29:01.640
a bad decision on Nintendo to not bring over.

00:29:02.380 --> 00:29:05.200
Yeah, yeah, I agree. But I mean, I guess I can

00:29:05.200 --> 00:29:06.880
see it was based on a Japanese movie and all

00:29:06.880 --> 00:29:10.920
that stuff, but... Yeah, yeah, that's true. But

00:29:10.920 --> 00:29:12.940
I mean, even then, I mean, even if you didn't

00:29:12.940 --> 00:29:14.980
know the movie existed... Yeah, the game works

00:29:14.980 --> 00:29:19.630
pretty well on its own. It's self -explanatory,

00:29:19.670 --> 00:29:23.849
so I don't know. All right. Were you guys able

00:29:23.849 --> 00:29:28.250
to complete this game? Yeah. Jacob, you didn't

00:29:28.250 --> 00:29:31.809
finish it? Mm -mm. How far did you get? I couldn't

00:29:31.809 --> 00:29:34.210
even get out of the first room. No, I don't know

00:29:34.210 --> 00:29:37.170
how far I got, honestly. Okay. I just didn't

00:29:37.170 --> 00:29:41.750
beat it. Did you get the generator running? No,

00:29:41.769 --> 00:29:44.390
I don't think so, no. Oh, dude. You played five

00:29:44.390 --> 00:29:47.539
minutes of this game. It seems to be a common

00:29:47.539 --> 00:29:55.960
theme. The story of the game, and as always,

00:29:56.000 --> 00:29:57.380
there's spoiler warnings whenever we talk about

00:29:57.380 --> 00:30:00.119
these games. If you don't want to hear them,

00:30:00.180 --> 00:30:04.220
don't listen. Like I said, it's pretty close

00:30:04.220 --> 00:30:06.420
to the movie. A news crew is looking for frescoes

00:30:06.420 --> 00:30:10.619
of a famous painter, Ichiro Mamiya. I guess he

00:30:10.619 --> 00:30:13.299
left a bunch of famous frescoes in an abandoned

00:30:13.299 --> 00:30:16.170
mansion. And when they make their way inside,

00:30:16.349 --> 00:30:18.109
they're trapped and they must find a way to escape.

00:30:18.529 --> 00:30:20.109
As they make their way through the mansion, they

00:30:20.109 --> 00:30:21.670
piece together a story of the family that lived

00:30:21.670 --> 00:30:25.009
here. Ichiru's son had fallen into an incinerator

00:30:25.009 --> 00:30:27.970
and was killed when Lady Mamiya turned it on,

00:30:28.049 --> 00:30:30.970
unaware that the child had fallen inside. Afterwards,

00:30:31.089 --> 00:30:33.789
she kind of went crazy and she lures other unsuspecting

00:30:33.789 --> 00:30:35.829
children into the incinerator to kill them and

00:30:35.829 --> 00:30:39.269
try to provide playmates for her dead son. Filled

00:30:39.269 --> 00:30:41.329
with regret, Lady Mamiya kills herself and is

00:30:41.329 --> 00:30:43.410
now trapped in the mansion as a vengeful spirit.

00:30:43.769 --> 00:30:45.869
The news crew must find the items necessary to

00:30:45.869 --> 00:30:47.950
exorcise Lady Mamiya and end the curse of the

00:30:47.950 --> 00:30:50.470
mansion. They get help from a mysterious character,

00:30:50.609 --> 00:30:52.869
Yamimura, who gives them clues and tells them

00:30:52.869 --> 00:30:55.210
what needs to be done. Eventually, he sacrifices

00:30:55.210 --> 00:30:57.569
himself and the team is able to defeat Lady Mamiya

00:30:57.569 --> 00:30:59.670
and escape as the mansion falls behind them.

00:31:00.150 --> 00:31:02.490
So this game actually has different endings depending

00:31:02.490 --> 00:31:04.309
on how many characters survive. So you play as,

00:31:04.390 --> 00:31:06.430
what is it, five characters? There's five characters

00:31:06.430 --> 00:31:08.529
in the game. And depending on how many make it

00:31:08.529 --> 00:31:09.869
to the end, because they can die at any time.

00:31:10.539 --> 00:31:12.140
And depending on how many make it to the end,

00:31:12.200 --> 00:31:13.599
there's different endings, which is pretty cool

00:31:13.599 --> 00:31:17.420
for an old NES game for like this for a time

00:31:17.420 --> 00:31:20.500
period. Yeah, different mechanic. They're like

00:31:20.500 --> 00:31:23.359
not even two minute long endings, but it's still

00:31:23.359 --> 00:31:25.279
pretty cool that they're in the game. Okay, so

00:31:25.279 --> 00:31:27.900
this game is, I would call it a survival horror

00:31:27.900 --> 00:31:31.220
RPG where you're just trying to get through the

00:31:31.220 --> 00:31:33.539
mansion and you're trying to keep everybody alive.

00:31:33.740 --> 00:31:36.480
And the main goal is kind of get to Lady Mamia

00:31:36.480 --> 00:31:40.380
and defeat her and escape the mansion. You play

00:31:40.380 --> 00:31:43.279
as five characters and you can team up. So you

00:31:43.279 --> 00:31:45.240
can team up with like up to three characters

00:31:45.240 --> 00:31:48.019
at a time and make your way through kind of like

00:31:48.019 --> 00:31:50.039
a former party, I guess, and then make your way

00:31:50.039 --> 00:31:52.839
through the mansion. And I feel like kind of

00:31:52.839 --> 00:31:56.460
the the strategy is to make a team of three and

00:31:56.460 --> 00:31:57.920
a team of two and just kind of keep them close

00:31:57.920 --> 00:32:01.180
to each other. Because you can switch to the

00:32:01.180 --> 00:32:03.240
characters anytime and move them around and stuff.

00:32:03.299 --> 00:32:05.720
And then each character has like a specific use

00:32:05.720 --> 00:32:09.569
that they have, like. What was it, Taro? He has

00:32:09.569 --> 00:32:13.170
the camera, right? I think. Akiko, she's kind

00:32:13.170 --> 00:32:16.269
of like the medic. She has the medkit and stuff.

00:32:16.410 --> 00:32:20.910
Yeah, the medkit. There's a lighter, a camera.

00:32:21.650 --> 00:32:24.710
Asuka has the vacuum. The vacuum, that's right,

00:32:24.789 --> 00:32:28.869
yep. And then the key. Yep, which is Emi. Yeah,

00:32:28.890 --> 00:32:29.990
and that's pretty important because you've got

00:32:29.990 --> 00:32:33.299
to unlock a lot of doors in this game. Yep. Which

00:32:33.299 --> 00:32:35.740
one of the big things from this game is the unlocking

00:32:35.740 --> 00:32:37.779
scene, which is pretty cool. It shows a little

00:32:37.779 --> 00:32:40.079
cut scene of the door and it shows a little animation

00:32:40.079 --> 00:32:42.799
of it opening, which is pretty creepy. But obviously

00:32:42.799 --> 00:32:45.460
that was a huge inspiration that came for Resident

00:32:45.460 --> 00:32:48.160
Evil. Yeah, that went to Resident Evil. It's

00:32:48.160 --> 00:32:50.079
pretty cool to see that inspiration from this

00:32:50.079 --> 00:32:53.319
old like 8 -bit game. Yeah. It's pretty cool.

00:32:54.500 --> 00:32:57.880
But yeah, so go ahead. I was going to say it's

00:32:57.880 --> 00:33:00.880
weird too because this like game came out in

00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:06.009
89 and that's it. nothing no sequel no re -release

00:33:06.009 --> 00:33:08.589
nothing and then resident evil starts and then

00:33:08.589 --> 00:33:11.329
fucking blows up oh it's the hugest thing ever

00:33:11.329 --> 00:33:14.809
yeah yeah now requiem is going to come out which

00:33:14.809 --> 00:33:18.250
is what the ninth game yeah ninth main game yeah

00:33:18.250 --> 00:33:22.029
insane probably 50 side games yeah yeah yeah

00:33:22.029 --> 00:33:24.609
it's insane dude yeah so you're trying to make

00:33:24.609 --> 00:33:26.880
your way through the mansion just and so It's

00:33:26.880 --> 00:33:29.900
a RPG in that there's random battles as you're

00:33:29.900 --> 00:33:32.079
walking around, you'll just, you know, eventually

00:33:32.079 --> 00:33:34.539
end up in combat. And combat's pretty simple

00:33:34.539 --> 00:33:37.880
for an RPG, kind of like baby's first RPG for

00:33:37.880 --> 00:33:39.359
sure, because all you can really do is attack

00:33:39.359 --> 00:33:42.680
or pray, which is kind of like magic, I guess.

00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:45.279
One of the really cool mechanics of this game,

00:33:45.380 --> 00:33:48.140
and I don't think any other RPG has ever done

00:33:48.140 --> 00:33:50.359
this, is that when you're in combat, you can

00:33:50.359 --> 00:33:53.859
actually call over other characters outside of

00:33:53.859 --> 00:33:56.730
combat. It's really freaking cool. so if you

00:33:56.730 --> 00:33:59.029
have like two of your characters you can call

00:33:59.029 --> 00:34:00.910
a third character and if they're all partied

00:34:00.910 --> 00:34:03.230
up you can walk those characters over to combat

00:34:03.230 --> 00:34:05.390
and they'll join combat which is really really

00:34:05.390 --> 00:34:08.730
cool so i had no idea you could do that my first

00:34:08.730 --> 00:34:11.070
playthrough yeah it's a really cool concept well

00:34:11.070 --> 00:34:16.210
so you can have all five yeah yeah it's really

00:34:16.210 --> 00:34:18.429
cool and like i said i don't think there's any

00:34:18.429 --> 00:34:20.309
other game that's ever really done that before

00:34:20.309 --> 00:34:23.869
so i like that a lot yeah so then like you're

00:34:23.869 --> 00:34:25.489
creating you're going through the puzzles you

00:34:25.489 --> 00:34:27.090
have to learn you have to kind of like figure

00:34:27.090 --> 00:34:29.389
out where you need to go and what you need to

00:34:29.389 --> 00:34:31.369
do but actually this game's not too difficult

00:34:31.369 --> 00:34:33.829
because so you have these frescoes that you can

00:34:33.829 --> 00:34:36.530
do and sometimes you have to vacuum if they're

00:34:36.530 --> 00:34:38.730
dirty but when you take a picture of them they'll

00:34:38.730 --> 00:34:40.750
like give you a hint kind of a clue of what you

00:34:40.750 --> 00:34:43.469
need to do and then there's also like zombies

00:34:43.469 --> 00:34:45.769
or like skeletons you can talk to there's writings

00:34:45.769 --> 00:34:48.250
on the wall like there's a ton of hints in this

00:34:48.250 --> 00:34:50.429
game and this game will actually if you look

00:34:50.429 --> 00:34:53.519
around and take a look around it's actually not

00:34:53.519 --> 00:34:55.000
very hard to figure out what you need to do.

00:34:55.239 --> 00:34:58.039
It's actually pretty good at giving you hints

00:34:58.039 --> 00:35:01.039
and clues of what you need to do. Yeah, just

00:35:01.039 --> 00:35:05.260
finding the areas is the difficult part. Yeah,

00:35:05.300 --> 00:35:10.059
navigating the mansion is the worst part. Yeah,

00:35:10.079 --> 00:35:12.300
the mansion's definitely designed to be kind

00:35:12.300 --> 00:35:14.860
of maze -like, to definitely get lost in it and

00:35:14.860 --> 00:35:18.559
stuff, for sure. So many doors and avenues and

00:35:18.559 --> 00:35:20.940
alleyways and stuff. But once you learn it, everything

00:35:20.940 --> 00:35:23.929
just... It's just so easy. Yeah, you have to

00:35:23.929 --> 00:35:26.389
map it out. It's also a pain, too, because just

00:35:26.389 --> 00:35:31.190
some areas are so, like, ridden with monsters.

00:35:31.269 --> 00:35:34.429
You can't walk for, like, five steps without

00:35:34.429 --> 00:35:35.150
going into battle. That's kind of one of the

00:35:35.150 --> 00:35:37.289
downfalls of, like, random battle RPGs, for sure,

00:35:37.389 --> 00:35:38.710
is that, like, when you're trying to explore

00:35:38.710 --> 00:35:41.429
shit and then you get constantly put into battle,

00:35:41.530 --> 00:35:43.769
it's annoying, for sure. It is annoying. It is.

00:35:44.409 --> 00:35:47.130
And then this game also has random events, as

00:35:47.130 --> 00:35:49.429
well, where, like, stuff would, like, like a...

00:35:49.880 --> 00:35:51.739
a spear will come at you and stuff and you have

00:35:51.739 --> 00:35:53.619
to like dodge the spear sometimes it works sometimes

00:35:53.619 --> 00:35:58.320
it doesn't um which is true i watched some video

00:35:58.320 --> 00:36:00.280
and some dude said it doesn't matter what you

00:36:00.280 --> 00:36:03.440
pick i think it's random yeah yeah just literally

00:36:03.440 --> 00:36:06.000
random but it's still pretty cool that an early

00:36:06.000 --> 00:36:07.599
game like this had i mean they're kind of like

00:36:07.599 --> 00:36:11.159
an early qte honestly which is pretty cool okay

00:36:11.159 --> 00:36:13.760
so and then also there's just a bunch of items

00:36:13.760 --> 00:36:16.099
everywhere scattered across the mansion so one

00:36:16.099 --> 00:36:17.420
of the big things is you got to figure out what

00:36:17.420 --> 00:36:20.809
item you need and then item management is like

00:36:20.809 --> 00:36:22.889
a huge part of this which is also another inspiration

00:36:22.889 --> 00:36:25.050
for resident evil because you have i would say

00:36:25.050 --> 00:36:28.269
it's like the main focus of this game yeah kind

00:36:28.269 --> 00:36:31.289
of yeah because like it's huge you have five

00:36:31.289 --> 00:36:33.530
characters but they can all carry two items each

00:36:33.530 --> 00:36:36.090
so you only have 10 items at a time but there's

00:36:36.090 --> 00:36:38.690
probably i would say almost hundreds of items

00:36:38.690 --> 00:36:40.349
in this mansion it's crazy how much stuff is

00:36:40.349 --> 00:36:42.289
just thrown about but one of the things that

00:36:42.289 --> 00:36:44.670
i notice is i think it's i think you can like

00:36:44.670 --> 00:36:47.380
soft lock yourself out of this game Because one

00:36:47.380 --> 00:36:49.420
of the things you can use is these wood planks

00:36:49.420 --> 00:36:52.820
that kind of help you go over, you know, chasm

00:36:52.820 --> 00:36:55.199
areas or whatever. But if you go over them too

00:36:55.199 --> 00:36:58.480
much, they eventually break. And I guess if you

00:36:58.480 --> 00:37:01.480
use them all up, you'd be screwed, I guess. Yeah,

00:37:01.679 --> 00:37:04.019
I think so. I mean, I think you'd have to do

00:37:04.019 --> 00:37:06.460
it a lot to really get that far. Yeah, you would

00:37:06.460 --> 00:37:09.940
have to purposely try to do it. The possibility

00:37:09.940 --> 00:37:11.380
is still there. And then the other thing, too,

00:37:11.460 --> 00:37:13.460
is the tonics. There's only so many tonics in

00:37:13.460 --> 00:37:15.349
the game. So this was kind of a weird thing I

00:37:15.349 --> 00:37:17.769
felt about this game is that there's no way to

00:37:17.769 --> 00:37:20.809
heal your characters unless you use a tonic.

00:37:20.829 --> 00:37:23.750
That's the only way to heal. Usually a lot of

00:37:23.750 --> 00:37:26.429
RPGs have some kind of inn or something that

00:37:26.429 --> 00:37:30.110
you can go to and sleep and heal, but this game

00:37:30.110 --> 00:37:32.690
doesn't have that. They are fairly generous with

00:37:32.690 --> 00:37:34.610
the tonics. Yeah, there's plenty around, but

00:37:34.610 --> 00:37:38.150
in theory... This game is very easy, though.

00:37:38.369 --> 00:37:40.989
Yeah, it's not difficult, no. I don't think I've

00:37:40.989 --> 00:37:43.510
ever died by combat in this game. It was all...

00:37:43.670 --> 00:37:46.250
other shit but i don't think it was ever by combat

00:37:46.250 --> 00:37:49.769
right i just i'm just saying in theory it is

00:37:49.769 --> 00:37:52.190
possible to like kind of soft lock yourself out

00:37:52.190 --> 00:37:54.050
of it you know if you use up all the tonics and

00:37:54.050 --> 00:37:56.429
then you get to a boss you can't beat then you

00:37:56.429 --> 00:37:58.809
know you feel like that's like just a design

00:37:58.809 --> 00:38:02.329
of the game because you can also get locked out

00:38:02.329 --> 00:38:06.590
if one of your characters die of what like if

00:38:06.590 --> 00:38:09.530
one of your characters like if m dies yeah true

00:38:09.530 --> 00:38:13.019
if you can't unlock a door yeah you can't unlock

00:38:13.019 --> 00:38:16.760
doors no you you that's not true actually really

00:38:16.760 --> 00:38:19.000
well i know there's i know there's other items

00:38:19.000 --> 00:38:23.539
in the game that you can like use yeah but if

00:38:23.539 --> 00:38:25.900
you're not at that point i don't think you can

00:38:25.900 --> 00:38:27.920
do anything about it oh that's true yeah i don't

00:38:27.920 --> 00:38:29.679
know if you if eventually you can't get to those

00:38:29.679 --> 00:38:31.500
items yeah i see what you're saying yep yep yep

00:38:31.500 --> 00:38:35.400
yeah i'm sure that's a design the door to like

00:38:35.400 --> 00:38:39.380
the corridor to the generator i think Yeah, but

00:38:39.380 --> 00:38:41.780
if she dies and you can pick up the lockpicks,

00:38:41.880 --> 00:38:45.219
then you don't need her anymore. Yeah. There's

00:38:45.219 --> 00:38:49.179
other items. Yeah, there's rooms where you can

00:38:49.179 --> 00:38:52.619
get another vacuum or another lighter. That's

00:38:52.619 --> 00:38:55.099
what Eric's saying. If you don't get to that

00:38:55.099 --> 00:38:56.519
before that point, then yeah, I'm not actually

00:38:56.519 --> 00:38:59.079
sure how that... I don't think the lockpicks

00:38:59.079 --> 00:39:02.679
show up to maybe after the first quarter of the

00:39:02.679 --> 00:39:05.800
game. I know the other ones do, but the lockpicks

00:39:05.800 --> 00:39:08.940
are probably the last one. so i think that's

00:39:08.940 --> 00:39:11.139
just part of the strategy of this game is just

00:39:11.139 --> 00:39:14.539
saving constantly yeah which is which is a nice

00:39:14.539 --> 00:39:16.320
addition to this game is because you can just

00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:18.360
save anywhere that's true yeah you can save it

00:39:18.360 --> 00:39:20.039
at any time and the game will start literally

00:39:20.039 --> 00:39:22.019
right back where you were which is cool which

00:39:22.019 --> 00:39:24.199
i was so scared to turn the game off the first

00:39:24.199 --> 00:39:28.599
time i know i was too yeah which was a kind of

00:39:28.599 --> 00:39:32.360
not normal thing back then yeah I mean usually

00:39:32.360 --> 00:39:33.579
you had some kind of save point or something

00:39:33.579 --> 00:39:35.239
yeah to be able to save yeah well you'd have

00:39:35.239 --> 00:39:38.679
to go yeah exactly not just off of whim and be

00:39:38.679 --> 00:39:41.280
like oh well I'm done now I can just start off

00:39:41.280 --> 00:39:45.079
exactly where I left off for sure which is really

00:39:45.079 --> 00:39:46.519
cool this is one of those games where you just

00:39:46.519 --> 00:39:50.039
save a lot yeah it is yeah definitely there's

00:39:50.039 --> 00:39:51.519
a lot of those puzzles and stuff in there but

00:39:51.519 --> 00:39:53.139
like I said I don't feel like anything was super

00:39:53.139 --> 00:39:54.840
difficult in this game especially if you like

00:39:54.840 --> 00:39:56.960
looked at the frescoes or like read the clues

00:39:56.960 --> 00:40:00.179
and stuff I don't I don't really remember getting

00:40:00.179 --> 00:40:03.280
stuck anywhere at any point. Yeah. I think the

00:40:03.280 --> 00:40:06.420
only part I got stuck on was towards the end

00:40:06.420 --> 00:40:09.000
of the game where you had a backtrack a couple

00:40:09.000 --> 00:40:15.480
of times and it wasn't really like obvious, but

00:40:15.480 --> 00:40:19.599
that was towards the very end of the game. Right.

00:40:20.019 --> 00:40:23.360
So that, that got me a little bit where you're

00:40:23.360 --> 00:40:27.139
like underground. Oh, yeah. That part was a pain.

00:40:27.199 --> 00:40:29.780
With the sand pits or whatever they are. Yeah,

00:40:29.800 --> 00:40:31.559
I know what you're talking about. That was confusing

00:40:31.559 --> 00:40:35.360
for a little bit. It's just when you have to

00:40:35.360 --> 00:40:40.280
get all the items for beating Mamiya. That was

00:40:40.280 --> 00:40:44.019
about the part I got stuck on. For sure. That

00:40:44.019 --> 00:40:45.840
part is tough, man, because you have to have

00:40:45.840 --> 00:40:51.820
four slots. Well, the nice thing is you have

00:40:51.820 --> 00:40:54.179
to bring all five. If you have all five of them

00:40:54.179 --> 00:40:57.030
alive, The nice thing is you just get rid of

00:40:57.030 --> 00:40:59.909
everything else once you get up to that point

00:40:59.909 --> 00:41:02.949
and then just use those items. Because once you

00:41:02.949 --> 00:41:04.489
have all of them, you know you're going to go

00:41:04.489 --> 00:41:08.010
fight her. Yeah. The crazy thing is you can beat

00:41:08.010 --> 00:41:12.289
this game with one person. Yeah. Yeah. True.

00:41:13.230 --> 00:41:16.469
I don't know how, but I think, I think I haven't

00:41:16.469 --> 00:41:18.030
actually tried it, but I think you can run away

00:41:18.030 --> 00:41:19.650
from the fight and then go get the items and

00:41:19.650 --> 00:41:21.210
come back and the fight will still be in the

00:41:21.210 --> 00:41:25.449
same area. Yeah. Yeah. I think that's how it

00:41:25.449 --> 00:41:26.750
works. I haven't tried. I'm not a hundred percent

00:41:26.750 --> 00:41:27.889
sure, but I think that's how it works. I thought

00:41:27.889 --> 00:41:31.050
you would just let everybody die and then use

00:41:31.050 --> 00:41:34.969
the last item or whatever. I'm not sure. I don't

00:41:34.969 --> 00:41:37.030
know. I'm not a hundred percent sure, but. Well,

00:41:37.130 --> 00:41:39.679
yeah. I mean, there's an ending for it, so you

00:41:39.679 --> 00:41:42.019
have to get it somehow. My guess is that you

00:41:42.019 --> 00:41:44.400
can leave the fight and come back to it at any

00:41:44.400 --> 00:41:46.219
point and it's still where it was. That's my

00:41:46.219 --> 00:41:49.440
guess, but... I'm just thinking you get to that

00:41:49.440 --> 00:41:51.480
point where you need to use the last item and

00:41:51.480 --> 00:41:53.860
then everybody just dies. Maybe. I don't know.

00:41:53.940 --> 00:41:57.539
Besides one person. Could be. That is pretty

00:41:57.539 --> 00:42:00.380
funny, though. Did you guys know... I might sound

00:42:00.380 --> 00:42:02.699
like an idiot, but did you guys know what frescoes

00:42:02.699 --> 00:42:06.579
were? No. Okay. I did not know what the fuck

00:42:06.579 --> 00:42:08.340
a fresco was. Really? You guys didn't know what

00:42:08.340 --> 00:42:10.760
frescos were? I thought that was a drink, bro.

00:42:11.500 --> 00:42:13.519
I didn't know what the fuck it was. I had to

00:42:13.519 --> 00:42:16.059
look it up. I was like, what is this game talking

00:42:16.059 --> 00:42:20.000
about? I thought it was a translation thing.

00:42:20.360 --> 00:42:23.039
You know, just a weird translation thing. So

00:42:23.039 --> 00:42:24.639
I looked it up and I was like, what the fuck

00:42:24.639 --> 00:42:28.099
is a fresco? It's just like an old style of painting.

00:42:28.300 --> 00:42:30.980
I think it's specifically on a wall, right? Well,

00:42:31.119 --> 00:42:34.239
it's like a type of Spanish. Yeah. Not, like,

00:42:34.260 --> 00:42:36.539
Renaissance, but pretty much, like, a Spanish

00:42:36.539 --> 00:42:40.219
Renaissance -style painting, yeah, on a, like,

00:42:41.260 --> 00:42:43.440
house wall or something. Yeah, okay. I'm surprised.

00:42:43.579 --> 00:42:44.820
Okay. I didn't know you guys didn't know that.

00:42:45.219 --> 00:42:48.019
No, dude, I started the game... Oh, dude, the

00:42:48.019 --> 00:42:50.219
first, like, hour of this game is tough, though.

00:42:50.460 --> 00:42:52.780
Yeah. Oh, figuring stuff out, for sure. It's

00:42:52.780 --> 00:42:55.559
tough. Especially when you don't know what the

00:42:55.559 --> 00:43:00.820
fuck a fresco is. Well, and to be fair, too,

00:43:00.880 --> 00:43:03.539
it doesn't, like... you know with the nes graphics

00:43:03.539 --> 00:43:06.079
it's kind of hard to to kind of see what you're

00:43:06.079 --> 00:43:07.639
looking at at first if you don't know what that

00:43:07.639 --> 00:43:10.739
is it's just like oh well go you know go look

00:43:10.739 --> 00:43:14.539
at this fresco or you know not knowing what a

00:43:14.539 --> 00:43:17.280
fresco is and then not knowing how to like look

00:43:17.280 --> 00:43:19.139
at things because you have to press multiple

00:43:19.139 --> 00:43:22.219
buttons to do that and then you get lost like

00:43:22.219 --> 00:43:25.019
oh dude what am i supposed to do that is that

00:43:25.019 --> 00:43:27.539
is a very old school design where you Press open

00:43:27.539 --> 00:43:31.360
up a menu to take actions. Yes. Yeah. So that's

00:43:31.360 --> 00:43:32.960
one of the things is you press the button and

00:43:32.960 --> 00:43:34.519
then you'll get a menu of actions that you can

00:43:34.519 --> 00:43:37.280
do. And you have things like look, you can look

00:43:37.280 --> 00:43:39.840
at your party, your items and stuff like that.

00:43:40.800 --> 00:43:43.019
Yeah. And then that's definitely an old school

00:43:43.019 --> 00:43:47.000
for items. You have to go up to the item. yeah

00:43:47.000 --> 00:43:50.860
click open the menu click item and then you either

00:43:50.860 --> 00:43:53.320
click an empty spot and then it'll ask you if

00:43:53.320 --> 00:43:56.300
you want it to move it or yeah to move and then

00:43:56.300 --> 00:44:00.119
or you can put it on another item slot to swap

00:44:00.119 --> 00:44:03.900
them out yeah yep that took me forever to figure

00:44:03.900 --> 00:44:06.519
it is it is tough and the thing too that i've

00:44:06.519 --> 00:44:08.079
had forgotten it took me a minute to figure out

00:44:08.079 --> 00:44:10.780
was the weapons So the weapons have a specific

00:44:10.780 --> 00:44:13.079
slot at the bottom of the menu, which I didn't

00:44:13.079 --> 00:44:14.719
realize was there at first. And I was like, why

00:44:14.719 --> 00:44:16.219
the hell can't I pick this stuff up? What the

00:44:16.219 --> 00:44:18.639
fuck's going on? And the game doesn't tell you

00:44:18.639 --> 00:44:22.199
that. And only the ladies can use certain weapons

00:44:22.199 --> 00:44:24.460
and the guys can only use certain weapons. Oh,

00:44:24.480 --> 00:44:26.739
is that true? I hadn't noticed that. Yeah, they

00:44:26.739 --> 00:44:30.619
can't use like heavy weapons. Oh, okay. I didn't

00:44:30.619 --> 00:44:34.099
even notice that. Yeah, it's a weird thing. It'll

00:44:34.099 --> 00:44:36.820
tell you that you can't use it. Oh, okay. Yep.

00:44:37.719 --> 00:44:40.519
But. Yeah, it was weird because when you try

00:44:40.519 --> 00:44:43.219
to put an item or a weapon into one of the slots,

00:44:43.440 --> 00:44:45.199
it's like, nah, you just can't do that. Yeah,

00:44:45.219 --> 00:44:46.679
it's like, that's not available or whatever.

00:44:47.079 --> 00:44:49.579
Yeah, it doesn't say it's a weapon or an item

00:44:49.579 --> 00:44:51.260
slot. It's like, yeah, you just can't do this.

00:44:51.519 --> 00:44:52.940
Yeah, it took me a minute to figure that out.

00:44:53.460 --> 00:44:55.000
It would have been nice to be like, oh, this

00:44:55.000 --> 00:44:57.059
is a weapon slot. You can't put an item in here.

00:44:57.199 --> 00:45:00.239
How are you supposed to know that? I mean, that

00:45:00.239 --> 00:45:02.420
I learned pretty quick. Once I got the menu down

00:45:02.420 --> 00:45:05.539
and I looked up what a fresco was, I was all

00:45:05.539 --> 00:45:10.190
right. Okay. That initial start was tough. I

00:45:10.190 --> 00:45:12.010
played this game for, like, an hour and a half

00:45:12.010 --> 00:45:14.969
or two hours the first time, and I made some

00:45:14.969 --> 00:45:16.949
good progress, and then I got stuck, and I'm

00:45:16.949 --> 00:45:19.610
like, I'm just gonna use a guide. Yeah. Yeah.

00:45:20.010 --> 00:45:22.250
I don't know, once I got past that hour... I

00:45:22.250 --> 00:45:22.909
mean, there are puzzles in this game that you

00:45:22.909 --> 00:45:24.690
have to figure out, you know? I mean, it's not

00:45:24.690 --> 00:45:26.849
a walk in the park, but, like I said, I feel

00:45:26.849 --> 00:45:29.010
like if you read the frescoes enough, and, like,

00:45:29.050 --> 00:45:32.309
there's other, like, wall text and, like, talk

00:45:32.309 --> 00:45:34.670
to the zombies and stuff, I don't feel like it's,

00:45:34.690 --> 00:45:37.360
like, impossible, you know what I mean? Oh, yeah,

00:45:37.440 --> 00:45:42.559
if you, like, um... It's not like survival kids.

00:45:43.139 --> 00:45:46.960
Yeah. If you explore and everything and, like,

00:45:46.960 --> 00:45:49.019
go through every avenue, the game will literally

00:45:49.019 --> 00:45:51.820
tell you what to do at any given point. Except

00:45:51.820 --> 00:45:57.119
for at the end. I mean, it does tell you, but

00:45:57.119 --> 00:46:00.800
it's a bit more archaic than the rest. It's not

00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:05.320
as direct, for sure. So it's a little more vague.

00:46:05.849 --> 00:46:08.469
But, I mean, if you've put the time into it,

00:46:08.510 --> 00:46:11.070
you'll figure it out. That's my biggest thing,

00:46:11.110 --> 00:46:13.230
dude. If I had the time to literally sit down

00:46:13.230 --> 00:46:14.989
and figure everything out, I probably would have.

00:46:15.449 --> 00:46:17.769
Well, you know what's funny? You guys watched

00:46:17.769 --> 00:46:19.510
the movie. You didn't see them clean the fresco

00:46:19.510 --> 00:46:22.469
in the movie? No, that I figured out. Yeah, I

00:46:22.469 --> 00:46:24.110
seen that. Well, then you still didn't know what

00:46:24.110 --> 00:46:26.530
a fresco was at that point? No, I didn't know

00:46:26.530 --> 00:46:28.829
what a fresco was when we started the game. Yeah,

00:46:28.869 --> 00:46:31.150
we started a game before. I had to look up what

00:46:31.150 --> 00:46:33.869
a fresco was when I started the game. I didn't

00:46:33.869 --> 00:46:35.349
start. I started after we watched the movie.

00:46:35.449 --> 00:46:38.590
Yeah, I started before. Oh, that's right. Yeah,

00:46:38.690 --> 00:46:40.409
I already beat the game before we even watched

00:46:40.409 --> 00:46:42.309
the movie, dude. That's true. You know what's

00:46:42.309 --> 00:46:43.750
funny? If you watch the movie, it actually kind

00:46:43.750 --> 00:46:46.070
of helps you play this game. It's true. Yeah.

00:46:46.449 --> 00:46:48.250
There's a few things in the movie that will actually

00:46:48.250 --> 00:46:50.150
give you hints to play the game, which is kind

00:46:50.150 --> 00:46:51.949
of funny. Yeah, like, all the items that you

00:46:51.949 --> 00:46:53.530
need to have and stuff. Well, and then, like,

00:46:53.610 --> 00:46:55.570
sometimes the frescoes are dirty, and if you

00:46:55.570 --> 00:46:57.789
watch the movie, they vacuum one of the frescoes.

00:46:58.130 --> 00:47:01.409
Yeah. Yeah, this is actually pretty funny. Like

00:47:01.409 --> 00:47:03.469
I said, the game honestly really isn't that hard.

00:47:03.829 --> 00:47:08.329
Like, I am not a huge RPG person, and I didn't

00:47:08.329 --> 00:47:10.110
have a problem with this game. Like, I wasn't,

00:47:10.130 --> 00:47:11.809
like... You tore through this game. I do, like,

00:47:11.829 --> 00:47:15.070
fucking... I'm not gonna say... 10 hours? Probably,

00:47:15.510 --> 00:47:17.469
yeah. Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah, I beat this game

00:47:17.469 --> 00:47:19.860
very quick. That's insane. But... Yeah, because

00:47:19.860 --> 00:47:23.019
it's just not a typical RPG. It's easy. It's

00:47:23.019 --> 00:47:25.579
a very simple RPG, for sure. It's just leveling

00:47:25.579 --> 00:47:28.179
up and then just finding better weapons. That's

00:47:28.179 --> 00:47:33.679
it. There's no learning spells or who has weaknesses

00:47:33.679 --> 00:47:35.559
and stuff. There's no layering to the combat

00:47:35.559 --> 00:47:37.820
at all. It's attack or it's prey, and that's

00:47:37.820 --> 00:47:39.960
it. Yeah, that's literally it. The only other

00:47:39.960 --> 00:47:42.920
layer is you can use items on certain enemies

00:47:42.920 --> 00:47:46.019
and that'll do damage. Yeah, but... Like, if

00:47:46.019 --> 00:47:48.880
you use the camera on the bats, it'll do damage,

00:47:49.000 --> 00:47:52.539
but it really doesn't do much. Yeah, at that

00:47:52.539 --> 00:47:54.739
point, you're better off just attacking normally.

00:47:55.300 --> 00:47:59.079
Lower levels, it helps. Yeah, I guess so. But

00:47:59.079 --> 00:48:02.420
once you hit a certain point, it's useless. Speaking

00:48:02.420 --> 00:48:04.940
of the bats, I did say it was a random battle,

00:48:05.019 --> 00:48:07.619
but they also did have enemies floating around

00:48:07.619 --> 00:48:09.460
on the screen that could attack you, too, sometimes.

00:48:09.820 --> 00:48:12.840
Yeah, like the bats. Yeah, and then the knights.

00:48:15.159 --> 00:48:18.380
Which were loud as shit. Yeah, they made a lot

00:48:18.380 --> 00:48:21.440
of noise, they did. Which is fair, they're a

00:48:21.440 --> 00:48:24.840
whole piece of armor, like, full set of armor,

00:48:24.940 --> 00:48:29.039
but you can hear them coming. Yep, they're definitely

00:48:29.039 --> 00:48:31.960
noticeable. And then when there's, like, four

00:48:31.960 --> 00:48:35.820
in a room, they're fucking loud. That was a little

00:48:35.820 --> 00:48:38.420
thing, was... There was some grinding that you

00:48:38.420 --> 00:48:40.460
had to do in this game, but it was not terrible

00:48:40.460 --> 00:48:42.880
at all. No, dude. Oh, dude, compared to, like,

00:48:42.880 --> 00:48:45.659
old retro RPGs, yeah, this game's not that bad

00:48:45.659 --> 00:48:49.119
at all. In, like, JRPGs, it's nothing. No, no,

00:48:49.199 --> 00:48:51.079
it wasn't too bad. It's not that bad. I hit max

00:48:51.079 --> 00:48:54.139
level before I beat the game. Oh, did you? Yeah.

00:48:54.320 --> 00:48:57.559
I mean, I did grind a little bit, but I was like,

00:48:57.579 --> 00:49:00.780
wow, level 20 already? I was like, okay. I was,

00:49:00.820 --> 00:49:03.199
like, three or four levels behind. Yeah, that's

00:49:03.199 --> 00:49:05.309
about where I was at. It takes you, what, 10

00:49:05.309 --> 00:49:08.489
minutes, 15 minutes to get to level 20 from that

00:49:08.489 --> 00:49:11.469
point? It took me a little bit. I had to go in

00:49:11.469 --> 00:49:15.690
the basement or whatever. Yeah. Yeah, you have

00:49:15.690 --> 00:49:17.869
to grind. You have to farm certain areas. It

00:49:17.869 --> 00:49:19.510
took me a minute. I mean, fast forward helped

00:49:19.510 --> 00:49:21.570
out a lot. I was about to say, when I got to

00:49:21.570 --> 00:49:23.210
my later levels, I was like, I'm just going to

00:49:23.210 --> 00:49:24.670
fast forward until I get a random encounter.

00:49:25.670 --> 00:49:29.510
Okay, let's jump over to graphics. You know,

00:49:29.530 --> 00:49:31.369
for an NES game, I think this game actually looks

00:49:31.369 --> 00:49:34.739
pretty good. i agree yeah it's not bad yeah definitely

00:49:34.739 --> 00:49:38.340
the the mansion looks like an old like scary

00:49:38.340 --> 00:49:41.579
dilapidated mansion um there's a lot of cool

00:49:41.579 --> 00:49:43.340
like different areas like there's the inside

00:49:43.340 --> 00:49:45.699
there's the courtyard there's the outside with

00:49:45.699 --> 00:49:49.059
the lake and everything this game does a cool

00:49:49.059 --> 00:49:50.800
thing like when it gets to like certain areas

00:49:50.800 --> 00:49:53.079
it'll like show like a full screen picture and

00:49:53.079 --> 00:49:56.860
stuff so and then like the up screen like the

00:49:56.860 --> 00:49:58.699
up close like the enemies and stuff like the

00:49:58.699 --> 00:50:00.659
pixel art is freaking awesome it's really good

00:50:01.299 --> 00:50:04.239
Yeah, dude, the enemies are dope in this game.

00:50:04.420 --> 00:50:06.239
Yeah, they're scary. They got a lot of, like,

00:50:06.260 --> 00:50:08.420
gory bits and stuff. Like, they're really cool.

00:50:08.900 --> 00:50:11.360
Mm -hmm. And they're animated, too, which is

00:50:11.360 --> 00:50:13.559
kind of a big thing for an old RPG like this.

00:50:14.179 --> 00:50:16.960
Yeah. Yeah, I know. This game actually does look

00:50:16.960 --> 00:50:19.099
really good. Yeah, I like it a lot. It's really

00:50:19.099 --> 00:50:22.539
cool. That, uh, the statue where the lightning's

00:50:22.539 --> 00:50:24.500
in the background? Yeah, that part was cool.

00:50:24.500 --> 00:50:27.260
Oh, dude, that was dope. And then when you put

00:50:27.260 --> 00:50:29.960
the... item in his hand and the lightning hits

00:50:29.960 --> 00:50:32.320
the sword oh that was so cool yeah that part

00:50:32.320 --> 00:50:34.780
was cool that was really cool i did not expect

00:50:34.780 --> 00:50:37.579
that from this game yeah it's it's a it's got

00:50:37.579 --> 00:50:40.360
a really good look to it um like i said the the

00:50:40.360 --> 00:50:42.360
level design is pretty cool there's a lot of

00:50:42.360 --> 00:50:43.980
like there's actually a lot of colors and stuff

00:50:43.980 --> 00:50:46.960
and everything so i think the game for an old

00:50:46.960 --> 00:50:49.079
nes game i mean at this point the nes was six

00:50:49.079 --> 00:50:52.940
years old so it they um and like i said man capcom

00:50:52.940 --> 00:50:56.000
has always been like they're they're really good

00:50:56.000 --> 00:50:59.849
at what they do So they knew what they were doing.

00:51:00.190 --> 00:51:02.550
But yeah, this game looks good. I think it's

00:51:02.550 --> 00:51:03.789
one of the better looking games on the system.

00:51:04.809 --> 00:51:07.710
When that dude like melted or whatever. Yeah,

00:51:07.710 --> 00:51:10.789
dude. Yamamura, when he melted, that part was

00:51:10.789 --> 00:51:13.170
sick. Yeah, this game has cutscenes, which is

00:51:13.170 --> 00:51:16.469
crazy too. For an old game like this. Yeah, dude.

00:51:16.550 --> 00:51:18.610
And they're actually like really well animated

00:51:18.610 --> 00:51:21.289
too. Yeah, yeah. They do a good job. Like each

00:51:21.289 --> 00:51:22.849
character is pretty unique. You can tell who

00:51:22.849 --> 00:51:26.500
is who by the... pixel art and everything. Definitely

00:51:26.500 --> 00:51:30.980
a sick game. With that too, so then we jumped

00:51:30.980 --> 00:51:33.860
over to the sound. It sounds pretty good. I don't

00:51:33.860 --> 00:51:37.119
think it's as good as the graphics. The music

00:51:37.119 --> 00:51:40.460
is eerie, but it's very repetitive. It's very

00:51:40.460 --> 00:51:45.500
short loops. It is. And there's only like four

00:51:45.500 --> 00:51:50.340
different tracks. Yeah. There's not a lot. There's

00:51:50.340 --> 00:51:53.239
not a ton. It changes by what area you're in.

00:51:54.199 --> 00:51:56.780
Most of it's just that one with the bass in it.

00:51:57.019 --> 00:52:01.000
Yeah. And then that one song, like that one where

00:52:01.000 --> 00:52:03.159
you're like looking at skeletons, it reminds

00:52:03.159 --> 00:52:06.480
me of a... Is it Battletoads? One of them sounds

00:52:06.480 --> 00:52:08.719
like Battletoads or like a TMNT song. I forget

00:52:08.719 --> 00:52:11.079
what it is. Every time it starts, I'm like, what

00:52:11.079 --> 00:52:15.260
is this? Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? But yeah,

00:52:15.320 --> 00:52:16.800
I mean, it's good though. It does a good job

00:52:16.800 --> 00:52:19.280
of setting the mood and everything. Yeah. And

00:52:19.280 --> 00:52:22.500
then the... I just like the main song is my favorite.

00:52:22.880 --> 00:52:25.199
Yeah. It's just got a good beat to it. I know

00:52:25.199 --> 00:52:28.400
dad likes it. He really likes it. He hated it.

00:52:30.500 --> 00:52:33.619
But what I really liked too was the sound effects,

00:52:33.719 --> 00:52:35.820
especially with the door opening. They did a

00:52:35.820 --> 00:52:37.880
really good job of making a creepy door opening

00:52:37.880 --> 00:52:42.019
sound. And then, you know, just like the combat

00:52:42.019 --> 00:52:44.239
noises and stuff were all really done really

00:52:44.239 --> 00:52:45.719
good. Like hitting the enemy was like a nice

00:52:45.719 --> 00:52:49.099
crunching sound and everything. Yeah. Yeah, this

00:52:49.099 --> 00:52:53.210
game was actually pretty advanced. for for its

00:52:53.210 --> 00:52:57.090
time yeah and like i said the guy the director

00:52:57.090 --> 00:52:59.610
he i mean he had made some pretty popular ghost

00:52:59.610 --> 00:53:01.429
and goblins megaman the guy knew what he was

00:53:01.429 --> 00:53:02.989
doing you know what i mean he knew how to make

00:53:02.989 --> 00:53:07.650
a good video game so um yeah a pretty well pretty

00:53:07.650 --> 00:53:10.650
well uh made game so we got anything else to

00:53:10.650 --> 00:53:12.869
say about uh sweet home before we move on jacob

00:53:12.869 --> 00:53:17.070
any thoughts over there no not really okay all

00:53:17.070 --> 00:53:19.590
right like i said i will say that i i feel like

00:53:19.590 --> 00:53:22.820
um This is a really good game. If you're not

00:53:22.820 --> 00:53:25.019
sure if you like RPGs or if you just want to

00:53:25.019 --> 00:53:27.000
kind of check out what they are, I feel like

00:53:27.000 --> 00:53:28.579
this is actually a really good one to start with.

00:53:29.480 --> 00:53:33.280
It's very simple as RPG goes, and it's got a

00:53:33.280 --> 00:53:37.400
really good setting and a decent story to kind

00:53:37.400 --> 00:53:38.800
of push you through and everything. So if you

00:53:38.800 --> 00:53:41.380
want to start somewhere with RPGs, this is definitely

00:53:41.380 --> 00:53:44.179
one I would recommend for sure. Yep, agreed.

00:53:44.719 --> 00:53:47.519
If me and Eric play it, it's a good RPG. Yeah.

00:53:48.239 --> 00:53:52.860
I watched a dude play. I followed a dude playing

00:53:52.860 --> 00:53:57.900
a video play of this game. Yeah, it's a good,

00:53:57.960 --> 00:54:02.239
very good introductory RPG. I love RPG elements,

00:54:02.400 --> 00:54:06.480
but I don't like RPGs. I love leveling up and

00:54:06.480 --> 00:54:10.579
I love putting points into my character and stuff,

00:54:10.739 --> 00:54:15.699
but I just don't like RPGs. It has to be... Simple.

00:54:15.699 --> 00:54:17.420
What is it, the battling system or something

00:54:17.420 --> 00:54:19.380
that you don't like? Yeah, I just don't like

00:54:19.380 --> 00:54:22.760
turn -based combat. It just has to be simple

00:54:22.760 --> 00:54:25.940
to it. I don't know. I just don't like turn -based

00:54:25.940 --> 00:54:30.940
combat. I've played Final Fantasy XIII and some

00:54:30.940 --> 00:54:33.679
of that. That leveling up is easy because it's

00:54:33.679 --> 00:54:37.559
all linear. We're not going to get into it, but

00:54:37.559 --> 00:54:39.980
I think FFXIII has one of the best battle systems

00:54:39.980 --> 00:54:43.219
ever created. I love the paradigm. Yeah, the

00:54:43.219 --> 00:54:46.699
paradigm's dope. It takes a minute to get used

00:54:46.699 --> 00:54:50.940
to, but once you get it down, it's awesome. I

00:54:50.940 --> 00:54:54.219
know, I wish I beat that game. Somebody deleted

00:54:54.219 --> 00:54:59.280
my save. You and saves, dude. Somebody deleted

00:54:59.280 --> 00:55:04.159
it. Was it my fault? Okay, so let's jump over

00:55:04.159 --> 00:55:05.679
to achievements before we get to the final word

00:55:05.679 --> 00:55:09.059
here. This game has 20 achievements worth 150

00:55:09.059 --> 00:55:14.849
points, which is a pretty low number. Did you

00:55:14.849 --> 00:55:18.449
guys master this game? Yes. Yeah, I did too.

00:55:18.610 --> 00:55:20.409
It's pretty easy. It's pretty much just play

00:55:20.409 --> 00:55:22.650
through the game and find all the items. I think

00:55:22.650 --> 00:55:26.989
there's like two hidden items, but I guess you

00:55:26.989 --> 00:55:28.449
can't technically miss anything in this game

00:55:28.449 --> 00:55:30.730
because this is one of those old NES games where

00:55:30.730 --> 00:55:32.909
once you beat the game, you can't save it. So

00:55:32.909 --> 00:55:34.849
you always go back to before the final boss.

00:55:35.650 --> 00:55:39.210
And even before the final boss, you can go anywhere.

00:55:39.750 --> 00:55:40.989
That's what I'm saying, yeah. So I don't think

00:55:40.989 --> 00:55:43.289
there's any way to miss anything in here. Yeah.

00:55:43.980 --> 00:55:46.099
I mean, it's easy achievements for an easy game.

00:55:46.420 --> 00:55:47.840
Pretty much, yeah. It's just pretty much find

00:55:47.840 --> 00:55:49.639
everything and then level up all the way to the

00:55:49.639 --> 00:55:52.559
final level. Max level, yeah. Which, like we

00:55:52.559 --> 00:55:55.380
said, doesn't take that much time. Yep. Very

00:55:55.380 --> 00:55:58.900
simple set. Yep. I don't really know that they

00:55:58.900 --> 00:56:03.360
could have added anything to it, really. Not

00:56:03.360 --> 00:56:05.019
really. I can't think of anything. Nothing that

00:56:05.019 --> 00:56:07.559
would really make sense. Yeah, there's not a

00:56:07.559 --> 00:56:10.260
ton of secrets or anything in this game. Yeah.

00:56:10.420 --> 00:56:14.110
I guess maybe the... but I don't know. I was

00:56:14.110 --> 00:56:15.969
going to say maybe like find all the frescoes,

00:56:15.969 --> 00:56:17.730
but I don't know if they would even be worth

00:56:17.730 --> 00:56:19.889
it because you don't have to find the frescoes

00:56:19.889 --> 00:56:21.469
to beat this game. You could literally go, I

00:56:21.469 --> 00:56:22.949
mean, other than the first one, I think, I think

00:56:22.949 --> 00:56:24.230
you can go through the entire game without looking

00:56:24.230 --> 00:56:26.829
at a single fresco. I didn't look at any frescoes.

00:56:26.849 --> 00:56:29.289
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Yeah. They just

00:56:29.289 --> 00:56:32.070
help. I think you have to do the first one, but

00:56:32.070 --> 00:56:35.550
then that's it. Yeah. They just help if you're

00:56:35.550 --> 00:56:38.309
not using a guide or, you know, whatever. I don't

00:56:38.309 --> 00:56:40.090
think you have to do the first one. Yeah, maybe

00:56:40.090 --> 00:56:43.010
not. I don't know. Yeah, pretty easy. Pretty

00:56:43.010 --> 00:56:46.429
easy, except for a pretty decent game. Alright,

00:56:46.710 --> 00:56:49.710
that's achievements, so let's go ahead and head

00:56:49.710 --> 00:57:46.340
over to the final verdict for Sweet Home. the

00:57:46.340 --> 00:57:48.280
final verdict. We don't use scores or numbering

00:57:48.280 --> 00:57:50.539
here. We use a very simple system. Did you enjoy

00:57:50.539 --> 00:57:53.019
the game? And would you recommend a game? Because

00:57:53.019 --> 00:57:55.800
that's what it's all about, right? So, who wants

00:57:55.800 --> 00:57:58.440
to go first? I guess I'll go first. Alright.

00:57:58.559 --> 00:58:03.780
Did you enjoy the game? Yeah, I did. I didn't

00:58:03.780 --> 00:58:07.900
hate this game. It was fun. If I definitely had

00:58:07.900 --> 00:58:10.119
a lot more time to invest into it, I would have

00:58:10.119 --> 00:58:14.440
definitely done everything myself. But it was

00:58:14.440 --> 00:58:18.230
fun. Again, it's not a very difficult game, especially

00:58:18.230 --> 00:58:21.949
with the combat and everything. I think it's

00:58:21.949 --> 00:58:24.570
got a lot of charm, especially that old school

00:58:24.570 --> 00:58:27.730
retro horror vibe. I think I would recommend

00:58:27.730 --> 00:58:31.869
this game just because it is on the easier side

00:58:31.869 --> 00:58:38.170
for pretty much everything. I agree with you.

00:58:38.849 --> 00:58:41.730
Jacob, what do you got? I didn't enjoy this game.

00:58:41.869 --> 00:58:46.289
I thought it was boring. I just couldn't get

00:58:46.289 --> 00:58:48.550
into it. Maybe I'm just not into terrain -based

00:58:48.550 --> 00:58:51.829
RPGs, except for Pokemon, but Pokemon's kind

00:58:51.829 --> 00:58:55.110
of its own thing. Bro, Pokemon's boring as shit.

00:58:56.449 --> 00:59:00.469
It's like one of the most boring RPGs ever. How?

00:59:00.469 --> 00:59:02.530
Pokemon's insanely boring. Well, I don't know.

00:59:02.630 --> 00:59:04.550
I mean, maybe like the original, but do the new

00:59:04.550 --> 00:59:07.090
ones, all they do is talk and talk and talk.

00:59:07.489 --> 00:59:10.130
Yeah, I mean the old ones. Okay. I mean, if you've

00:59:10.130 --> 00:59:12.530
played one Pokemon, you've played them all. Yeah.

00:59:12.809 --> 00:59:16.929
It's all the same thing. Alright, we're not talking

00:59:16.929 --> 00:59:18.869
about Pokemon. We're not talking about Pokemon.

00:59:22.409 --> 00:59:23.309
Alright, so you didn't enjoy it. Looks like I'm

00:59:23.309 --> 00:59:25.349
the answer to the next question. Yeah, so would

00:59:25.349 --> 00:59:27.139
you recommend it? I would actually recommend

00:59:27.139 --> 00:59:30.539
it, though, because I just don't think this game

00:59:30.539 --> 00:59:33.820
was for me. And there is a bunch of cool stuff

00:59:33.820 --> 00:59:36.199
to this game. As you said, the graphics are pretty

00:59:36.199 --> 00:59:40.320
cool. You know, there's certain cut scenes. You

00:59:40.320 --> 00:59:44.460
know, the navigation seems pretty doable. I mean,

00:59:44.500 --> 00:59:46.400
I'm sure it's confusing at first, but it just

00:59:46.400 --> 00:59:49.599
didn't appeal to me. But I'm sure, you know,

00:59:49.619 --> 00:59:51.480
to certain gamers, this would be really cool.

00:59:52.139 --> 00:59:56.230
It's just old school. I'm just saying, if I ever

00:59:56.230 --> 00:59:58.190
have trouble sleeping at night, well, at least

00:59:58.190 --> 00:59:59.789
I can play Sweet Home and I'm sure it'll knock

00:59:59.789 --> 01:00:03.389
me out. There you go. You won't be dreaming about

01:00:03.389 --> 01:00:09.510
Lady Mamiya? No. Okay. I'll be dreaming about

01:00:09.510 --> 01:00:13.369
playing a better game. Okay. I will say, every

01:00:13.369 --> 01:00:15.690
time I played this game, I wasn't, like, eager.

01:00:16.670 --> 01:00:19.869
Yeah. I definitely enjoyed this game. I mean,

01:00:19.909 --> 01:00:22.530
this is the second time I played this game. So,

01:00:22.650 --> 01:00:25.369
I... I didn't remember a ton of it because it

01:00:25.369 --> 01:00:28.289
had been so long, but I think this game's got

01:00:28.289 --> 01:00:30.289
a lot of charm to it. It's an awesome setting.

01:00:30.389 --> 01:00:32.429
I love the setting. The story's actually pretty

01:00:32.429 --> 01:00:35.710
good because it's based off of an actual movie

01:00:35.710 --> 01:00:37.570
script. Not that video games have to be based

01:00:37.570 --> 01:00:40.230
off of that, but there was already a foundation

01:00:40.230 --> 01:00:43.130
for it. And then the beats are really good. There's

01:00:43.130 --> 01:00:46.010
cutscenes. The enemies are sick. If you like

01:00:46.010 --> 01:00:48.329
RPGs, it's a very simple one, but it's not a

01:00:48.329 --> 01:00:51.940
bad one. There's plenty to explore. The game's

01:00:51.940 --> 01:00:54.420
got enough clues that you can find your way through

01:00:54.420 --> 01:00:57.860
it on your own. You may get stuck in a part or

01:00:57.860 --> 01:00:59.880
two, but if you just look around and try all

01:00:59.880 --> 01:01:02.099
the actions and everything, you can find your

01:01:02.099 --> 01:01:05.840
way through. And like I said, I love that calling

01:01:05.840 --> 01:01:08.920
action where you can call other characters over

01:01:08.920 --> 01:01:10.719
into combat. I think that's a really cool thing,

01:01:10.760 --> 01:01:12.239
and I wish more games had tried that. It's such

01:01:12.239 --> 01:01:15.559
a cool, unique idea for a turn -based RPG. But

01:01:15.559 --> 01:01:18.480
yeah, I think it's a great game. I would definitely

01:01:18.480 --> 01:01:21.099
recommend it. If you ever wanted to try an RPG,

01:01:21.320 --> 01:01:23.059
if you're just even into RPGs, if you're not

01:01:23.059 --> 01:01:25.699
sure if you like them, play this game. Not only

01:01:25.699 --> 01:01:27.320
because it's just so much, I think it's fun,

01:01:27.400 --> 01:01:29.340
I think it's easy, it's got a great setting,

01:01:29.440 --> 01:01:31.559
but also just because of how important a video

01:01:31.559 --> 01:01:34.420
game history it is. I mean, this game spawned

01:01:34.420 --> 01:01:39.559
a friggin', you know, huge franchise. I mean,

01:01:39.639 --> 01:01:40.980
everyone knows what Resident Evil is, you know

01:01:40.980 --> 01:01:43.199
what I mean? So, I think it would be really cool

01:01:43.199 --> 01:01:44.860
that everyone should go back and check it out.

01:01:45.800 --> 01:01:48.460
Great game. Everyone should check it out. Ryan,

01:01:49.000 --> 01:01:52.179
it's your pick. What do you got to say? I love

01:01:52.179 --> 01:01:56.559
this game. This game was awesome. Like I said

01:01:56.559 --> 01:02:01.800
before, I love the retro horror. I love Splatterhouse.

01:02:03.920 --> 01:02:08.420
Even the 80s retro horror is my favorite. I know

01:02:08.420 --> 01:02:11.380
Splatterhouse is a little kind of like that.

01:02:11.460 --> 01:02:15.590
It's a little more 90s, a tiny bit. uh dude i

01:02:15.590 --> 01:02:18.210
love 80s retro like this game is it looks great

01:02:18.210 --> 01:02:24.409
on the nes for an nes game uh cut scenes uh just

01:02:24.409 --> 01:02:28.010
like the how the monsters look like there wasn't

01:02:28.010 --> 01:02:30.570
really a lot of sprite changes in this game there's

01:02:30.570 --> 01:02:33.349
a lot of actual different monsters and stuff

01:02:33.349 --> 01:02:39.070
so um and again it's i don't like rpgs but this

01:02:39.070 --> 01:02:42.650
is a very easy rpg i didn't use a guide to maybe

01:02:43.449 --> 01:02:47.909
last five ten minutes of the game so that's i

01:02:47.909 --> 01:02:50.130
that's show that actually shows that i enjoyed

01:02:50.130 --> 01:02:52.510
this game that i want to figure it out myself

01:02:52.510 --> 01:02:58.650
right yeah but yeah the combat's easy um the

01:02:58.650 --> 01:03:03.010
game is uh it's just fun and it's just it has

01:03:03.010 --> 01:03:05.769
such a great charm to it and yeah it's it is

01:03:05.769 --> 01:03:09.650
a really good uh it's a pretty important piece

01:03:09.650 --> 01:03:13.460
of gaming history if it spawned one of the biggest

01:03:13.460 --> 01:03:17.199
video game franchises cool so that means you

01:03:17.199 --> 01:03:20.579
recommend it right yeah for sure it again if

01:03:20.579 --> 01:03:23.159
if you never played an rpg and you want to try

01:03:23.159 --> 01:03:28.340
or you love rpgs you've played them all or you

01:03:28.340 --> 01:03:31.280
just want an easy game or a game with good charm

01:03:31.280 --> 01:03:35.360
or just a retro horror game just just anything

01:03:35.360 --> 01:03:37.179
if you just want to play a game you never played

01:03:37.179 --> 01:03:42.210
this this game's perfect i mean There's really

01:03:42.210 --> 01:03:44.769
not much bad I can say about this game. Another

01:03:44.769 --> 01:03:47.590
thing, too, is if you want to try a Japanese

01:03:47.590 --> 01:03:48.989
exclusive and you've never done that before,

01:03:49.170 --> 01:03:51.469
this is a great place to start. Yeah, true. The

01:03:51.469 --> 01:03:53.690
translation is actually really good. Yeah, it's

01:03:53.690 --> 01:03:56.469
actually really good. Which one did we use? The

01:03:56.469 --> 01:03:59.869
original one. I think it's a 2008 one or something.

01:04:00.090 --> 01:04:02.369
It's Suicide something. Yeah, there's two different

01:04:02.369 --> 01:04:06.250
ones. Yeah, whatever the Suicide one was. I forgot

01:04:06.250 --> 01:04:09.139
what it was, but... Yeah, it's actually a really

01:04:09.139 --> 01:04:12.280
good translation. Yeah, it was good. There's

01:04:12.280 --> 01:04:15.820
nothing confusing. No weird translation issues.

01:04:16.079 --> 01:04:19.619
It was all actually really good. Yep. I think

01:04:19.619 --> 01:04:22.079
the only difference was they changed Taro's name.

01:04:22.360 --> 01:04:26.000
Yeah. His name's not Taro. It's something like

01:04:26.000 --> 01:04:29.579
that. Yeah, something like that. But that's it.

01:04:30.039 --> 01:04:33.840
Yeah, go ahead. That's the only difference. Yep.

01:04:34.639 --> 01:04:38.550
All right. Cool. That's our review. That's our

01:04:38.550 --> 01:04:40.730
verdict. You, the gamers out there, let us know

01:04:40.730 --> 01:04:42.269
if you enjoyed it, if you would recommend it.

01:04:42.429 --> 01:04:44.170
And then I would want to do something real quick

01:04:44.170 --> 01:04:46.110
before we get to the next game. We all actually

01:04:46.110 --> 01:04:48.909
sat down and watched this movie. What did you

01:04:48.909 --> 01:04:51.829
guys think of the movie? Snoozefest. Really?

01:04:51.969 --> 01:04:55.190
You didn't like it? I thought it was kind of

01:04:55.190 --> 01:05:00.469
boring. It was a little silly. I heard that the,

01:05:00.550 --> 01:05:03.219
I think it was the producer. He went through

01:05:03.219 --> 01:05:05.159
and re -recorded a bunch of shit without the

01:05:05.159 --> 01:05:08.059
director's knowledge. Yeah. And I feel like that

01:05:08.059 --> 01:05:09.780
was the first part of the movie because the first

01:05:09.780 --> 01:05:11.760
part of the movie was kind of silly. It had a

01:05:11.760 --> 01:05:15.000
lot of goofiness to it. And I'm guessing that

01:05:15.000 --> 01:05:17.460
was the part that he re -recorded. I'm guessing

01:05:17.460 --> 01:05:19.780
that the original director recorded a more darker

01:05:19.780 --> 01:05:23.659
movie. But, yeah, the first part's a little goofy.

01:05:23.860 --> 01:05:26.840
The last part, though, is it gets really good.

01:05:26.960 --> 01:05:28.719
I thought the last part of the movie was awesome

01:05:28.719 --> 01:05:32.159
because it gets really dark. It does pick up.

01:05:32.409 --> 01:05:35.150
Yeah, and then the special artist on the movie,

01:05:35.269 --> 01:05:37.929
his name's Dick Wolf. Or not Dick Wolf, it was

01:05:37.929 --> 01:05:42.809
Dick Smith. And, dude, the Lady Mamiya part,

01:05:43.010 --> 01:05:45.469
where she's like, that part was awesome. She

01:05:45.469 --> 01:05:47.070
was really cool looking. It had the 80s practical

01:05:47.070 --> 01:05:49.590
effect look. It was sick. That part was really,

01:05:49.650 --> 01:05:52.389
really cool. Yeah, I mean, honestly, I think

01:05:52.389 --> 01:05:55.130
the game was better than the movie. And I think

01:05:55.130 --> 01:05:56.869
that a lot of contemporary reviews said the same

01:05:56.869 --> 01:06:00.010
thing. I agree with that, yeah. Yeah, the movie

01:06:00.010 --> 01:06:03.219
wasn't horrible. It was fine, yeah. It was just

01:06:03.219 --> 01:06:07.000
that typical 80s, like, acting and... Yeah, yeah,

01:06:07.059 --> 01:06:10.599
yeah. Just a little goofy, but yeah, the first...

01:06:10.599 --> 01:06:13.099
I don't know, I want to say... Probably, like,

01:06:13.159 --> 01:06:17.000
the first half of the movie is a little convoluted.

01:06:17.219 --> 01:06:21.619
It is, yeah. It's very slow and, like, not childish,

01:06:21.659 --> 01:06:25.699
but it is very goofy. It is. And then once, like,

01:06:25.760 --> 01:06:29.369
halfway through, it changes. Yep. And like I

01:06:29.369 --> 01:06:31.329
said, I feel like that's the part that got re

01:06:31.329 --> 01:06:33.010
-recorded. I feel like the first part probably

01:06:33.010 --> 01:06:35.690
wasn't that goofy originally. Yeah. I know. I

01:06:35.690 --> 01:06:38.889
want to watch the original. Yeah. I don't think

01:06:38.889 --> 01:06:41.949
it exists anywhere. Nah. It probably does somewhere,

01:06:42.070 --> 01:06:44.130
but. The second half of the movie has a dude

01:06:44.130 --> 01:06:46.829
split in half, like trying to chase people down

01:06:46.829 --> 01:06:50.530
and stuff. Yeah. It gets pretty good. Yeah. And

01:06:50.530 --> 01:06:52.150
like I said, it's kind of funny. If you watch

01:06:52.150 --> 01:06:53.630
the movie, it kind of helps you play the game

01:06:53.630 --> 01:06:57.239
a little bit. Yeah. I would say if you play the

01:06:57.239 --> 01:06:58.940
game and you liked it, check out the movie. Otherwise,

01:06:59.119 --> 01:07:03.300
it's not a must -see for sure. Yeah, I would

01:07:03.300 --> 01:07:07.699
definitely play the game first. Agreed. Did Jacob

01:07:07.699 --> 01:07:09.139
watch the movie? Did you like the movie, Jacob?

01:07:10.260 --> 01:07:13.820
It's alright. As you guys said, the second half

01:07:13.820 --> 01:07:18.239
is a lot better. It's just a typical 80s. If

01:07:18.239 --> 01:07:20.900
you've seen 80s movies, it's that. It's a campy

01:07:20.900 --> 01:07:23.440
horror movie for sure. Yeah, but just Japanese.

01:07:25.070 --> 01:07:28.730
All right. That's enough of Sweet Home. No more

01:07:28.730 --> 01:07:32.090
Sweet Home. We're not doing Least or Most. Oh,

01:07:32.090 --> 01:07:34.329
yeah. Did this change anybody's Least or Most

01:07:34.329 --> 01:07:42.570
favorite? No. Ryan? I don't... I think this is

01:07:42.570 --> 01:07:44.969
my second favorite. All right. What was your

01:07:44.969 --> 01:07:47.809
first? Is it Splatterhouse? It's Scoon. Oh, Scoon.

01:07:47.849 --> 01:07:50.849
That's right. Just the fact of just the time

01:07:50.849 --> 01:07:53.989
we had playing that game. Yeah, Scoon was great.

01:07:54.969 --> 01:07:57.570
Unless we have that again. It's still ongoing.

01:07:58.090 --> 01:08:02.769
Yeah, exactly. It's still ongoing. I have it

01:08:02.769 --> 01:08:07.550
running in the background right now. That's the

01:08:07.550 --> 01:08:10.869
huge difference. We had such a good time playing

01:08:10.869 --> 01:08:15.309
that game. Yeah, for sure. Okay. Cool. But yeah,

01:08:15.329 --> 01:08:18.850
this is definitely second favorite. It's close.

01:08:19.689 --> 01:08:21.329
Yeah, it's definitely up there too. I think Chibi

01:08:21.329 --> 01:08:23.050
-Robo is still my favorite, but this is definitely

01:08:23.050 --> 01:08:26.300
pretty close. Yeah. But I did enjoy that. We,

01:08:26.300 --> 01:08:28.600
you know, did everything, watched a movie and

01:08:28.600 --> 01:08:30.859
played the game altogether and stuff too. So

01:08:30.859 --> 01:08:33.380
yeah, it was like a cool. And that's the effect

01:08:33.380 --> 01:08:35.699
of this. I like with this podcast is I want to

01:08:35.699 --> 01:08:37.619
make sure I want to not want to make sure, but

01:08:37.619 --> 01:08:39.239
I, I'd like to enjoy everything. You know, I

01:08:39.239 --> 01:08:40.800
feel like it's all like one package. I want to

01:08:40.800 --> 01:08:44.979
get as much in as we can. So yeah, but all right,

01:08:45.000 --> 01:08:47.699
cool. Let's go ahead and jump over to the next

01:08:47.699 --> 01:08:49.779
game then, which we're going to be playing wild

01:08:49.779 --> 01:08:54.159
Woody for the Sega CD. You guys know anything

01:08:54.159 --> 01:09:01.359
about this game? Nope. Your pencil. Yeah, I mean,

01:09:01.399 --> 01:09:04.819
I know it's just kind of a wacky 2D platformer,

01:09:04.819 --> 01:09:07.340
but that's about all I know. I've seen it before.

01:09:07.420 --> 01:09:10.000
I've never had any hands -on experience with

01:09:10.000 --> 01:09:13.239
it. Right. All right, let's take a look at this

01:09:13.239 --> 01:09:15.859
front cover right here. We got a mad -looking

01:09:15.859 --> 01:09:18.640
pencil with a piece of dynamite in his hand.

01:09:22.320 --> 01:09:25.420
Dude, if I was a kid, I would beg to have this

01:09:25.420 --> 01:09:27.859
game. Oh yeah, dude, this is some 90s wildness

01:09:27.859 --> 01:09:31.060
right here for sure. I want this so bad. He drew

01:09:31.060 --> 01:09:34.000
a piece of dynamite on the paper. Yup, yup, yup.

01:09:34.600 --> 01:09:37.880
I love the strange looking totem pole back here.

01:09:38.220 --> 01:09:41.399
Look at that face on the bottom. He's just like,

01:09:41.479 --> 01:09:48.460
hmm. A little cup and an old 90s phone landline.

01:09:49.260 --> 01:09:52.170
This is great. I love it. Oh, that's wireless.

01:09:52.449 --> 01:09:56.609
Hmm? That's wireless. Uh, yeah. Yeah, it's a

01:09:56.609 --> 01:09:58.430
wireless phone, probably. It's a giant brick

01:09:58.430 --> 01:10:02.449
in the back. Mm -hmm, mm -hmm. All right. Let's

01:10:02.449 --> 01:10:05.850
jump to the back here. We got Wild Woody. Listen

01:10:05.850 --> 01:10:08.649
up, pencil necks. As the quickest draw ever to

01:10:08.649 --> 01:10:10.930
wheel the sketch pad, Wild Woody's going to write

01:10:10.930 --> 01:10:13.050
off a lot of bad guys on his way to putting together

01:10:13.050 --> 01:10:16.329
the shattered pieces of a magic relic. To get

01:10:16.329 --> 01:10:18.470
himself out of a jam, Wild Woody can sketch up

01:10:18.470 --> 01:10:21.640
things like bombs, mermaids, cyclones, and ghosts.

01:10:22.300 --> 01:10:24.819
Or, just rub out enemies with this big eraser

01:10:24.819 --> 01:10:29.460
butt. Get the point? Includes amazing 3D rendered

01:10:29.460 --> 01:10:33.279
graphics and 3D bonus rounds. Oof. I don't know.

01:10:33.340 --> 01:10:36.079
That bottom right picture does not look amazing.

01:10:36.079 --> 01:10:40.779
That is terrifying. That is terrifying. I know.

01:10:40.899 --> 01:10:43.579
I don't want to rub out enemies. This could be

01:10:43.579 --> 01:10:47.710
amazing, bro. The 3D render graphics were so

01:10:47.710 --> 01:10:49.869
good that they had to use the same render for

01:10:49.869 --> 01:10:54.149
the front and the back. Yeah, it's got the same

01:10:54.149 --> 01:10:57.770
picture choice, that's true. It was just so good.

01:10:58.369 --> 01:11:01.170
Alright, you guys looking forward to this game

01:11:01.170 --> 01:11:05.529
or what? Yeah. Pretty skeptical. This is my bread

01:11:05.529 --> 01:11:06.829
and butter right here, I can't wait for this.

01:11:07.050 --> 01:11:09.649
I don't know what rubbing out means, but... I

01:11:09.649 --> 01:11:11.689
can't wait. I don't know what it means in this

01:11:11.689 --> 01:11:13.510
game, but yeah, how do you do with your butt?

01:11:13.670 --> 01:11:15.470
Gonna be rubbing on your butt. I don't know what

01:11:15.470 --> 01:11:19.930
it means in this game, but... Alright. Alright.

01:11:20.609 --> 01:11:21.970
Are you gamers out there? This is the one that

01:11:21.970 --> 01:11:24.229
you picked, right? Yeah, yeah. Oh, I can't wait,

01:11:24.289 --> 01:11:26.949
dude. Alright. Are you gamers interested out

01:11:26.949 --> 01:11:28.970

01:11:28.970 --> 01:11:31.850
