MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, come on! I'm just talking about video games, man!

00:01:16
Devon Kopete
Oh, oh, I'm doing push ups at the gym right now because I'm on Fuego.
00:01:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
He doesn't talk.
00:01:21
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hey, look, I'm I'm flicking me. That's what he said in one episode.
00:01:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
I remember but that.
00:01:26
Devon Kopete
The episode. Yeah.
00:01:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
That episode.
00:01:28
Devon Kopete
Mr. Bean, the syndicated TV series.
00:01:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
There's only like five episodes, four or three, three episodes.
00:01:33
Devon Kopete
Yeah, because of BBC, it may as well have been 300 episodes.
00:01:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
Three episodes. That's almost getting that crazy.
00:01:38
slimeballsteve
I mean hugely successful on YouTube too.
00:01:42
Devon Kopete
Hugely successful.
00:01:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
You got a turkey stuck on his head.
00:01:47
Devon Kopete
That's still my...
00:01:51
Devon Kopete
Is that Mr. Bean?
00:01:57
Devon Kopete
Or is that my father talking to me and you thought I might try to interact with him?
00:02:05
Devon Kopete
Oh, no, but listen, I'm excited because we are officially in the the liar month.
00:02:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
oh That guy always gets me man gets me Oh wire liar
00:02:13
slimeballsteve
Sorry, what?
00:02:13
Devon Kopete
Just September. September is the biggest liar month of the entire year because it it tricks you in thinking, oh, it's going to it's cooling down and it's going to continue to cool down. But we only have about two weeks of this.
00:02:26
Devon Kopete
And then it's going to get weirdly hot again.
00:02:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yo, brother, I think we're gonna have a hot Halloween.
00:02:30
Devon Kopete
Yeah, no, that's what I mean.
00:02:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
All right.
00:02:31
Devon Kopete
It's going to get like stupidly hot. And I was going to be like, what happened? Because the last two years specifically, as soon as August ends, it's like September understands the assignment.
00:02:42
Devon Kopete
It's like, OK, you ready for like peak 83 degree days? Like, OK, yeah, let's let's just go there.
00:02:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
Evan, we're all gonna be in bikini variants of our costumes this year.
00:02:53
slimeballsteve
Oh, you're saying it's it's a bikini ween.
00:02:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's how hot it's gonna be.
00:02:56
Devon Kopete
Some guys wearing a hoodie today and, uh,
00:02:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
Basically I'm going to be like the bikini version of Jason. Devin's going to be the bikini version of, uh, let's say leather face, probably knowing him.
00:03:05
Devon Kopete
yeah, that's fair.
00:03:06
Devon Kopete
I do like steak.
00:03:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
Um, but yeah, we don't want to sweat, you know?
00:03:08
slimeballsteve
I'm chilly.
00:03:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
So we just wear a bikini.
00:03:11
Devon Kopete
Who's the bikini version of Freddie?
Drive-In Movie Experiences
00:03:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
He's got like a, it's a striped bikini, red and black, you know, like nice and tasteful two-piece covered in scars and burns.
00:03:19
Devon Kopete
A lot of burns, a lot of, yeah.
00:03:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
and just the dirtiest things come out of his mouth, his or her mouth for the costume. But that's what we're hoping for.
00:03:30
Devon Kopete
He falls in the sand and is just in pure agony. Oh my god.
00:03:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
I get my dick out of my dick hole.
00:03:36
Devon Kopete
Everything hurts. It's in my wounds. I like to think he's always freshly burnt.
00:03:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
um like I'm okay with the hot Halloween. I'm okay. I mean, not okay, like globally speaking, as far as the world ending.
00:03:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
But like, as far as me existing, during a hot Halloween, I don't mind too much.
00:03:56
slimeballsteve
you gotta You gotta play in your costumes out accordingly based on the weather.
00:03:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, totally. I mean, you can't be wearing, can't be Robert Baratheon.
00:04:00
Devon Kopete
Well, i have to plan out I have to plan out a new dog costume.
00:04:01
slimeballsteve
You can't be a mummy. That guy's just all wrapped up.
00:04:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
Depends what you wrapped up in.
00:04:09
slimeballsteve
but Maybe it's like a loose-fitting bandage.
00:04:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
Something that breeds, you know, like some nice silk wraps.
00:04:14
slimeballsteve
Did you say something in that room?
00:04:14
Devon Kopete
last The only mummies I want to deal with are are the ones wrapped up in duct tape. You know what I'm saying?
00:04:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
Whoa, that's weird.
00:04:21
Devon Kopete
I don't want them getting out, dude.
00:04:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's like some serial killer stuff.
00:04:23
Devon Kopete
No, thank you.
00:04:26
Devon Kopete
Hey, I'm just saying, it's a better material.
00:04:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think Koonan did that. The guy that killed Versace.
00:04:30
Devon Kopete
then Then Papyrus, you know, that's lame.
00:04:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, well anyway, hot Halloween's on our way. Uh, September, like Devin was saying is a month of a tickle in the ball sack and running away licking the dick tip and walking away.
00:04:45
Devon Kopete
Mm-hmm. Just...
00:04:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's not a lie, but
00:04:50
Devon Kopete
it waited It waits until you get really excited and take your pants off. it And it goes, whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you dude? You're weird now?
00:04:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think it could be like that for film. I know that for a fact. I think August and September kind of bleed into one another to be nowadays.
00:05:04
Devon Kopete
You say this on the, on the eve of my beetle juice, Beatle juice, Chris, you say that I think scuttle butt says pretty good.
00:05:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
That movie is going to be so fucking bad. ah Is it really?
00:05:18
Devon Kopete
Uh, 78%, which is much better than I thought it'd be 40 reviews, 78%.
00:05:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
Really? Is that what they say?
00:05:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, a rotten tomatoes?
00:05:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, that's not too bad, I guess.
00:05:27
Devon Kopete
Yeah. You know, then again, we, we walked into alien Romulus thinking we were going to get something special.
00:05:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
All right.
00:05:32
Devon Kopete
And, uh, we were both like,
Terminator Anime Analysis
00:05:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
You got to be careful nowadays with Rotten Tomatoes. I don't really think it's a good as good of an indicator as it was.
00:05:42
slimeballsteve
People are just excited to go outside.
00:05:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
I to some degree, I think people are excited that film exists still in a theater.
00:05:49
Devon Kopete
I'm always excited. I'm like, ooh.
00:05:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
I know I. I know I talk a big game and I hate on a lot of shit, but man, I would be really upset of movies. I couldn't go to a theater and watch a movie. I would suck, you know?
00:06:01
slimeballsteve
See, i I've been getting more picky about what the years I'm going to.
00:06:02
Devon Kopete
Somebody admits it.
00:06:06
Devon Kopete
Steve, I don't think you go.
00:06:07
slimeballsteve
has to be actual film reels.
00:06:10
slimeballsteve
No more digital projectors.
00:06:12
Devon Kopete
Get out of here.
00:06:13
slimeballsteve
I need to make sure that there's two reels, one for sound, one for visuals. um
00:06:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
You got a guy running two guys running them back there because of course the visors.
00:06:22
slimeballsteve
I need to see those little hats, too, the little usher hats. And I need to see their little like flashlights. Yeah. um And I want them
00:06:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
You want the cigarette burns come back.
00:06:31
slimeballsteve
Oh, I need those. And I also i I want them to make sure that the the movie theater popcorn that they have an air fryer at the theater so I can air. No, I'm sorry. A freeze dryer.
00:06:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
Freeze dried popcorn.
00:06:45
slimeballsteve
Watch up. Watch up freeze dried candies. Look up freeze dried candies like gummies and stuff like that. chris It turns into like pork rinds but of candy.
00:06:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
I, you know, I have seen that where they, right. And then there's like, you can breathe out like cold air and like smoke.
00:06:58
slimeballsteve
Yeah, i wouldnt that's what I wanna be. When I go to the movies, I wanna be crunching on some pork rinds, making as much noise while the screen crackles and like all all it's all messed up film real glory.
00:07:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
Robert De Niro in Cape Fear.
00:07:11
Devon Kopete
You know, I'll be honest.
00:07:12
slimeballsteve
That's me.
00:07:14
Devon Kopete
I feel like, uh, I kind of slept on the drive-through or drive-through, uh, drive-in movies this summer.
00:07:21
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, me too. you know Both of us.
00:07:21
slimeballsteve
You really did, you used to be Mr.
00:07:23
Devon Kopete
I kinda, usually I kind of try to catch one or two.
00:07:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
of i Oh, yeah.
00:07:25
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, I don't know man when we saw we saw what what did we see there in it was uh Nope, it was hard to see
00:07:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
That was bad.
00:07:32
Devon Kopete
It was, it was very dark.
00:07:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
That was a rough experience.
00:07:33
Phantom Libtard
It was really hard to see. Yeah, I don't know if I enjoyed the experience.
00:07:36
slimeballsteve
What do you mean? It was like hard to see because it was like...
00:07:38
Phantom Libtard
like It was too dark.
00:07:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
to Steve, what happens is if somebody turns their headlights on in a dark drive it through or drive-in,
00:07:39
Phantom Libtard
It was like too dark.
00:07:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
um it reflects off the screen and it causes this huge glare.
00:07:51
slimeballsteve
Do people do that?
00:07:52
Phantom Libtard
Well, the thing is that the rule is to turn it off.
00:07:52
Devon Kopete
yeah but yeah yeah yeah
00:07:57
Phantom Libtard
But they also have you listen to it on your car radio.
00:08:00
slimeballsteve
So you have to have your car running.
00:08:01
Phantom Libtard
And I guess with car, yeah, cars these days, your your headlights will just automatically turn on anyway.
00:08:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's true.
00:08:07
Devon Kopete
And also like just somebody will just one, there's just going to be an asshole or three. And then also it's like if somebody wants to leave because there are two movies. ah So generally somebody will turn their lights on like 10 minutes into the second movie and decide they want to leave.
00:08:23
Devon Kopete
And then they have to slowly find their way out because it is dark.
00:08:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that's true.
00:08:28
Devon Kopete
And then so like it's not a quick experience and you're just fucking waiting. But
00:08:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's not, it's not the optimal experience to see like a new movie.
00:08:39
Devon Kopete
It's always fun, you know.
00:08:40
MERLINCHESTNUT
But if you were to see like an older film, I feel like that would be better in that, in that environment.
00:08:46
Devon Kopete
So you can get some.
00:08:48
Devon Kopete
Some some being, you know, some being action in, you know, backseat, you know, I'm saying.
00:08:50
slimeballsteve
oh Oh, I see, I see some, some naked.
00:08:52
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like if you gave me If you gave me a double feature dawn and day of the dead and a drive in on me, I'd shit my pants.
00:08:59
Devon Kopete
Chris is hooking up with someone in the backseat, you know.
00:09:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
I, you know, I'd be like, get the fuck off my dick. Oh, this is, you see that scene where all the hands can have the wall.
00:09:07
slimeballsteve
Dude, that's messed up, dude.
00:09:09
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's messed up.
00:09:09
slimeballsteve
Don't touch me. don't't Come on, dude.
00:09:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
Did you see that?
00:09:12
Devon Kopete
That guy's a bad guy. He deserves it though.
00:09:14
slimeballsteve
That's the bad boy.
00:09:16
MERLINCHESTNUT
He got his arm.
00:09:16
Devon Kopete
You know, actually it's interesting that you brought up snoot in a little snobby 35 millimeter or whatever you said, I'll film as I watched a movie that was right.
00:09:18
Phantom Libtard
Thank you.
00:09:22
slimeballsteve
ah thank you, thank you, thank you. Yeah.
00:09:27
Devon Kopete
It was riding the line. A snoot really was, uh, uh, I saw strange darling.
00:09:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, you went to go see what is it? Strange darling, how was that, man?
00:09:37
Devon Kopete
You know, uh, it was actually did quite like it, but like, So the movie starts and it says this film is shot 35 millimeter.
00:09:51
Devon Kopete
Like it says like this entire film shot.
00:09:53
slimeballsteve
Oh, they're letting you know.
00:09:54
Devon Kopete
Yeah. And then it says this is a story in six parts. And I was like, well, this is getting real fucking snooty eyes.
00:10:04
Devon Kopete
And I was almost out immediately. And then it says part three. And I was like, OK, wait a second. We're just starting with part three.
00:10:13
Devon Kopete
And like I kind of sat down and I let the movie kind of go over me.
00:10:20
Devon Kopete
And I very, very much liked it.
00:10:25
Devon Kopete
I was really into it. um There are some bits that were kind of just, I don't think it works like perfectly, um but it definitely deserves, it's like, you know,
00:10:37
Devon Kopete
I don't know what it is or not tomatoes or anything like that, but it's it's not as good as long legs better than cuckoo.
00:10:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
Let me ask you.
00:10:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
OK, let me ask you a question.
00:10:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Does the breaking up into parts kind of soften the blow of, let's say, one part being a little slower or a little less engaging than the previous? Like, you're just waiting for the next one.
00:10:55
Devon Kopete
It's interesting because like.
00:10:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
You're like, oh, it could be better.
00:10:59
Devon Kopete
Yeah, because it's interesting because like the movie really is. It it controls its own pace, like even more so. because of the chapter ah method.
00:11:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that's i I do like that.
00:11:10
Devon Kopete
um There is there is a yeah, there is a bit of a twist.
00:11:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't hate that.
00:11:14
Devon Kopete
I'm not saying it's like it gives it away in the trailer, but like this is a movie much. It's better just watched. Without seeing a trailer, right?
00:11:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Cool. We'll do strange darling.
00:11:24
Devon Kopete
um Yeah, Strange Darling, Hour 36. So nice.
00:11:29
slimeballsteve
That's not a bad, that's not a bad.
00:11:29
Devon Kopete
Yeah, not nice.
00:11:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
Who directed this man?
00:11:31
Devon Kopete
I think The Rock. ah
00:11:35
Devon Kopete
he Can you imagine? It was written and directed by the same
Film Critiques & Storytelling Techniques
00:11:39
Devon Kopete
guy. J.T. Mollner.
00:11:40
MERLINCHESTNUT
ah tea the
00:11:46
Devon Kopete
He did a bunch of stuff I've never heard of. Outlaws and angels.
00:11:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
What's his name again? I'm sorry. CJ Mullum.
00:11:52
Devon Kopete
nineteen J.T. Mollner. M-O-L-L-N-E-R.
00:11:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
18 molar, huh
00:11:57
Devon Kopete
ah So he did, he wrote, let's see. He's definitely a writer-director. Outlaws and Angels, Flowers in December, Sugartown, Henry, John, and the little bug.
00:12:10
Phantom Libtard
Sounds like a bunch of bands from the 2000s.
00:12:12
Devon Kopete
Yeah, no, it's definitely. So Outlaws and Angels is the only other movie that he's he's made.
00:12:15
Phantom Libtard
Flower, sugar flower.
00:12:19
Devon Kopete
Everything else, I think, was shorts. um But it has, it stars Kyle Galner, who's, he's that guy.
00:12:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, he's adapting the long walk by Stephen King.
00:12:27
Devon Kopete
He's been in a lot of things. You've seen his face.
00:12:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's cool.
00:12:35
Devon Kopete
Yeah. And then Willa Fitzgerald is is plays opposite of him. And she's in a bunch of shit I've never she.
00:12:46
Devon Kopete
Yeah, not a lot that I'm super familiar with. um But she's really good. I think they're both very good kind of co-leads.
00:12:58
Devon Kopete
And, uh, it's, it's a little funny. It's a little, it's not like scary. It's definitely more of like a thriller. I'd say, uh, but it's, it's interesting because it's like when the, when the, the kind of thing happens kind of, I'd say like in the middle of the movie, it's the right time for it to happen. Um,
00:13:21
Devon Kopete
And there's really not like a ton of weak spots. It's just kind of like most people will kind of guess, guess it before we get there. But still, it's still like, OK, like I still want to see the journey.
00:13:33
Devon Kopete
I want still want to see how these characters got to this point because it's it's not a sequential movie at all. It's like three, two, one or three, two, four, one six or something like that.
00:13:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
This is so Mark's Giovanni Ribisi's debut as a feature film cinematographer.
00:13:44
Devon Kopete
It's a chapter.
00:13:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's interesting.
00:13:55
Devon Kopete
I you know what, I remember seeing a trailer, i Chris, I think it was with you and we both were like, this is what they were basically like in this.
00:13:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that's right. Where's that guy been since Avatar?
00:14:04
Devon Kopete
It's just like it's just like that. I just want to shoot. I usually shoot things. I wonder if he's married to somebody or.
00:14:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
It doesn't, does, does it look good? Is it well shot?
00:14:13
Devon Kopete
Yeah, yeah, I'd say it's well, it's not like spectacular.
00:14:17
Devon Kopete
um I wouldn't say like walked away.
00:14:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
Kind of, kind of simple, simple and to complicate, not too stylish.
00:14:22
Devon Kopete
Yeah, yeah, not too stylish, um but. Yeah, yeah, the movie kind of goes in a a little bit of a direction near the end where I was like, does this guy hate women?
00:14:31
slimeballsteve
You're welcome.
00:14:37
Devon Kopete
ah The director, I mean, like just because it's like. I don't know, it's kind of hard to discuss with without kind of giving away the whole movie, but.
00:14:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh yeah, i'm gonna um I'm gonna watch this one.
00:14:47
Devon Kopete
This was definitely worth my time.
00:14:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
That sounds pretty interesting to me.
00:14:49
Devon Kopete
Um, I'd say a good sit. And again, I'd say if, if I liked it more than cuckoo, a little bit less than long legs, but it's like, it's there.
00:14:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
You liked it more than Cuckoo, you said?
00:15:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
i see You know, I feel like...
00:15:03
Phantom Libtard
What about ah about monkey man compared to monkey man?
00:15:05
Devon Kopete
I liked it more than monkey man, like the way more than monkey man.
00:15:09
Phantom Libtard
Oh yeah, that's right. Because you hated monkey man for no reason.
00:15:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, you said that was the worst film you've ever seen.
00:15:11
Devon Kopete
I actually, I was, I was cutting holes out of my hood before I went and saw strange daughterly.
00:15:17
Devon Kopete
It was late to the film.
00:15:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
um Wasn't gonna say um oh I I've seen on the internet that long legs the water is cooling around long legs and i so I don't understand that Too much because I still I like it's so great to me I guess like I feel like a lot of people's reactions have been like really this and I'm like, yeah, man
00:15:22
Devon Kopete
No, it was still good.
00:15:34
Devon Kopete
Fuck them. Yeah.
00:15:41
Devon Kopete
yeah I saw a lot of people like that guy we talked to outside the theater.
Cinema Experience & Pop Culture Reflection
00:15:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
I mean less less less hate more like this is overrated and I don't think it is.
00:15:47
Devon Kopete
You hated it too, right?
00:15:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
I really don't.
00:15:55
Devon Kopete
So this is not a spoiler by any stretch, but there is a scene or there's a sequence that takes place in like this kind of like mountain house, right?
00:15:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
I wouldn't describe.
00:16:06
Devon Kopete
These mountain people like live in this house and
00:16:11
Devon Kopete
i I like realize, aesthetically, I love this. But like, apparently, when she's this the one character running up to the house, ah there's just like megaphones placed all around the property, just playing a radio, like just playing the radio, like talk radio.
00:16:28
Devon Kopete
And I was like, I love this.
00:16:30
Devon Kopete
I want to live in a house where there's megaphones all around my fucking property. And I'm just blasting a podcast or something like that. It kind of gave me Alan Wake to vibes.
00:16:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
Was like Alex Jones.
00:16:44
Devon Kopete
No, no, it was just but it was like some guy calls on and he starts to cursing. He's like, well, no, hey well you know, we are one rule the radio. You don't cuss. No, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm just saying. And it was just like this.
00:16:55
Devon Kopete
And this is not really like tonally. They're not at all like each other. But it just kind of reminded me, brought me back to that point where I'm just playing Al and wait to listen to cool radio stories.
00:17:07
Devon Kopete
But no, just aesthetically, I'm all about putting megaphones around the house and listening to cool shit. Uh, and also, uh, college owners got a really fun haircut in this.
00:17:19
Devon Kopete
And I, I was like, I just couldn't stop looking at it. I was like, I want this guy's haircut.
00:17:24
Devon Kopete
So big time haircut, dude.
00:17:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
Big time haircut.
00:17:27
Devon Kopete
It's a weird haircut, but I, it was working for me.
00:17:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'm excited.
00:17:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
I want to see this.
00:17:33
Devon Kopete
No, it's movies. Dope. Smooth. Dope. Yeah. Hashtag worth your time.
00:17:40
slimeballsteve
Hashtag week UK.
00:17:40
Devon Kopete
Yes. T a worthy dude.
00:17:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
I got something that I watched over the week.
00:17:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
I like saying it like that.
00:17:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
um I watched the Terminator anime, Terminator Zero.
00:17:53
Devon Kopete
Oh, I watched I watched two episodes of that.
00:17:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
Okay, okay. What do you what do you what what are your thoughts on it thus far?
00:18:01
Devon Kopete
It's extremely violent, not impressed with the plot, but again, I'm only to it.
00:18:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think that's pretty fair assessment. um Listen, you know, I brought this up on the discord before about how I felt about it being a bit convoluted.
00:18:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
And John pointed out, well, that's.
00:18:19
Devon Kopete
I mean, it's Terminator.
00:18:19
Phantom Libtard
oh Yeah, I was like I was like isn't that on brand for terminator I mean even terminator 2 is a little and terminator 1 could be a little convoluted Don't make me send you that clip from hot tub time machine where where he has all the coke on his face and he's talking about
00:18:20
Devon Kopete
It's Terminator, Lord.
00:18:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's it it is and I think it is a past the terminator to like everything is.
00:18:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
it's It's it's it's not because it's still functioning within the same framework of the single person traveling through time like
00:18:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think, to be honest, I think the series gets more convoluted as it goes on because it's trying to tie in so much like other time travel that has occurred.
00:18:49
Phantom Libtard
Oh, yeah, for sure. I mean, I think my yeah, um my point is like any any time travel movie series is going to is going to get it's going to get kind of wonky at some point, you know.
00:19:04
MERLINCHESTNUT
True to some degree. But I feel like this one doesn't explain it well enough. And I feel like when it does, It's usually just an exposition, um which you know that's it's the anime trope thing, where they just explain everything and in one.
00:19:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
and Basically, there's there is a dynamic between two characters that is just explaining the entire show to you and the purpose of it.
00:19:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
And you know like that's not it's not great storytelling.
00:19:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
um it's It's kind of lazy. and But that being said, I think the beginning of it, especially everything that takes place in a certain spot, is extremely effective.
00:19:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like scary, like Terminator 1 was more so than Terminator 2.
00:19:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
I definitely see more of Terminator 1 in this than than I see in Terminator 2.
00:20:01
Devon Kopete
Yeah, where he's like a stalker villain, like he's a killer, he's a monster.
00:20:04
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yes. It's definitely giving me like Michael Myers vibes in the, in sort of in the beginning. And the only thing that there's limitations to the show that they address, but it still doesn't like sit right with me.
00:20:21
MERLINCHESTNUT
One specifically being that this is 1997 in Tokyo.
00:20:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
So there are no guns, like there are no gun shops.
00:20:27
Phantom Libtard
Whoa. Interesting.
00:20:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like there's nothing when I think of Terminator, I think of shotguns, pistols, machine guns, like all of this stuff. But this Terminator literally is attaching a crossbow to his wrist.
00:20:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
you know, like building crossbow bolts in this little place.
00:20:48
Devon Kopete
Yeah, I mean, that's pretty cool, to be fair.
00:20:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's neat. And I'm not going to say it it's not ah accurate, like historically, but like, I don't know. I i think you're missing something with the Terminator show that doesn't have a lot of guns in it, at least in the beginning, at least in the beginning.
00:21:01
Devon Kopete
Well, I mean, I would also say that it's interesting that they do that, but then there's like full of mecca kitties, like kittens.
00:21:10
Devon Kopete
And I'm like, what kind of 1997 is this, where there's robotic kittens that
00:21:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
In 1997. Well,
00:21:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's something that you gets kind of explained to you as the show goes on because there is, there is a very much a negative outlook on time travel in the show, uh, which is interesting.
00:21:20
Devon Kopete
Okay, all right. God forbid there's a gun though.
00:21:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think that part of it makes me like, Hmm.
00:21:34
Phantom Libtard
Well, yeah, it's it's Terminator that they tried to prevent a future and ended up enabling.
00:21:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, no, no, no, no, no.
00:21:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's, it's more like they're not doing anything.
00:21:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like the they it's useless.
00:21:49
Devon Kopete
Yeah, it is kind of pointless, yeah.
00:21:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's very fatalistic. And it's like, oh, they're just creating new timelines. Like every time somebody travels back, it's just a new timeline. Like it's not changing their timeline.
00:22:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
They're just making a new one. So it's kind of like there's no point to it, really. And I guess that's cool. I guess, you know, like but somebody had to come out and say,
00:22:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
We gotta stop with the time travel on this Terminator series.
00:22:17
Devon Kopete
Yeah, it's not really fixing anything.
00:22:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's not good.
00:22:20
Devon Kopete
It won't fix everything in our timeline. So it's the fucking point.
00:22:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
Right? Like, and I like that outlook. I do perspective, the perspective that the show takes, but I don't know. I just don't think it's like executed perfectly. Like something like the Castlevania show was or edge runners was.
00:22:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
Um, I think there are some cool little twists too.
00:22:43
Devon Kopete
I mean, visually, it's it's fucking crazy look.
00:22:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
that that work.
00:22:46
Phantom Libtard
Was it studio trick like was it a was it a known um anime studio that did this one?
00:22:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
I can't remember the name of it, but I did see it pop up.
00:22:54
Devon Kopete
I think so, like it must be because it's really well, it's really well animated.
00:23:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, it's I saw like yeah I saw the company pop up a few times. Oh, developed by project production it's an animation studio in Japan and they did ooooooodoo Ghost in the Shell blood the last vampire kill bill volume one the animation sequence in that um Yeah The Matrix those works of influence.
00:23:20
Phantom Libtard
Let's see, let's look them up.
00:23:21
Devon Kopete
Ghost in the Shell.
00:23:27
Phantom Libtard
Oh, interesting.
00:23:28
Devon Kopete
I think Ghost in the Shell is probably all you need. You're like, okay.
00:23:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
no, no, they influenced the matrix. Okay, that makes sense
00:23:38
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, so it's legit, it's a legit studio.
00:23:40
Devon Kopete
Yeah, they've been around since 87, yeah.
00:23:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, I didn't. It looks cool. Like everything looks great. The animation looks neat, especially with the, you know, the great part of every Terminator movie where you see the degradation of the Terminator, like the face falling apart
Game Remakes & Critiques
00:23:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
and revealing the skeleton, like everything is happening. be It's cause and effect.
00:24:04
MERLINCHESTNUT
You know, like he gets fire thrown in his face. So now there's a big chunk of his face missing in a red eye and he has to cover it up in various ways. And I think everything with the actual T what 800 or T 100 works really well. Like the voice acting is really good. Uh, but look is cool and everything works there. I think it kind of falls apart when it comes to who is trying to be saved.
00:24:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
throughout the series. I wouldn't call him the main character, but he's like the character of most importance. And ah yeah, I just think that plot line doesn't work 100%.
00:24:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
But I didn't hate it. I really i enjoyed it.
00:24:49
Devon Kopete
The dad's a dick. I don't like the dad.
00:24:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, dad sucks. He's terrible.
00:24:53
Devon Kopete
That's a fucking asshole, dude. And this ah yeah it's yeah, No, he's extremely unlikeable.
00:24:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, it's hard to like him. I don't i don't like
00:25:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
And I guess that may be the point even after watching it, but I don't know if that was entirely intentional.
00:25:08
Devon Kopete
You know, this has nothing to do with the anime, but I was watching a Mr. Sunday movie about Terminator 2. And they brought up this little bit of trivia, which I never knew, which is apparently in the novelization.
00:25:24
Devon Kopete
Skynet bringing or sending the T-1000 is kind of a desperation play. Like they didn't want to do it because he's such a you because he's such an experimental like unit. And they were like, we don't really know what's going to happen if he succeeds in his mission. Like they were really wary of that.
00:25:46
Devon Kopete
And I was like, Oh, of the T 1000 of like the T 1000 succeeding and then just like, cause then there's no, he's a prototype.
00:25:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
That of time travel oh Because he's a prototype Well,
00:25:55
Devon Kopete
And like, then he kind of, they don't know what the fuck he's going to do after. Like the other terminators, they're like, Oh yeah. Well, he'll just like sit in a fucking corner until like the end of the world happens.
00:26:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
they can't self-terminate of course
00:26:07
Devon Kopete
Yeah. Yeah, of course. But, uh, yeah, how the hell are you going to self terminate that? So, I don't know. I just was like, Oh, that's me. I just never knew that. I never knew that the two 1000 was kind of like, uh, we don't really love doing this, but I guess we have to.
00:26:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
You know, nothing beats that visual, though, of the T 1000. Like, i it just doesn't nothing in any of the Terminator movies or the show in particular, nothing comes close to that, especially that being the villain.
00:26:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's such an effective looking and just an effective villain in general. Cause it's, and it's a a movie that is told with as little exposition as possible.
00:26:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
There is, I'm not going to say there isn't, every movie has it, but it's done in in such a way where it's clever and smooth. You don't notice it, you know, this is the one.
00:27:00
Devon Kopete
Yeah. But this is in a but like this isn't like cyberpunk quality.
00:27:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh no. Edgerunners is like a way better story too.
00:27:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
It was like.
00:27:13
Devon Kopete
Yeah, I think it was just I don't know. It was like it didn't grow didn't grip me.
00:27:15
Phantom Libtard
Did you cry, Chris? Did it make you cry?
00:27:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, Edge Runner's kind of got me close when Lucy got here when we were back.
00:27:21
Phantom Libtard
No, I mean the term is terminated terminator you cry.
00:27:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Whoa! Oh, no, no, nothing in Terminator made me cry.
00:27:24
Devon Kopete
When the Terminator fails in its job, Chris Webb,
00:27:25
Phantom Libtard
ah No thumbs up in a moment.
00:27:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
Fuck no, nothing like that. That's like whole level of above this. I don't know how to describe it.
00:27:38
Phantom Libtard
Oh, how would you compare to Castlevania?
00:27:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
And listen, I i i will...
00:27:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, Castlevania's way better.
00:27:45
Phantom Libtard
Well, this is Castlevania of Japanese. It's not a Japanese studio, right? It doesn't count.
00:27:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, like I think, listen, Castlevania has better voice acting, has better writing, better plotting. Like, I think there's more than just the animation. I think it's just a better show in a lot of ways.
00:28:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think the voice actor for The Terminator was is really good. Everyone else, I'm like, this is not great, you know? Especially hearing them curse.
00:28:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
It was like, oh, that's,
00:28:14
Phantom Libtard
During a Terminator curse.
00:28:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, no, the other characters, the voice actors.
00:28:17
Phantom Libtard
Oh, but the terminator was like, fuck.
00:28:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
I would love that so much.
00:28:20
Devon Kopete
fucking fucking asshole Every time they shoot them what the fuck It hurts what I'll be fine.
00:28:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
That would be my favorite show.
00:28:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
Son of a bitch, really? God damn, you put a fucking pipe bottle in my chest? Shit. I'm all right, but like, come on.
00:28:40
Devon Kopete
It's just rude dick
00:28:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Um, yeah, so I watched that, but I also, I plotted Elvin ring. So at this point, I really still, it's inconclusive and I'll explain, um, because I tried it obviously on my other TV and various other HDMI ports in the larger TV that I have in my room.
00:28:51
slimeballsteve
Yes, let's go.
00:28:51
Phantom Libtard
Yeah boy, finally.
00:28:52
Devon Kopete
Yeah. So, so yeah yeah, I was going to say, I guess the PlayStation, uh, HDMI scare, uh, fix it.
00:28:58
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, what was the problem? Was it the cable?
00:29:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
It was not working at all. It was showing a boot menu, but it was also not projecting the the image of the PlayStation 5's home screen. After the boot menu would come up, it's weird.
00:29:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
It would just go to no signal. So I was like, okay, this there's something wrong here with the TV and the PlayStation 5. So I moved it into my bedroom, which is a smaller television, and it is running fine, perfectly fine.
00:29:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
But I still think there's something wrong with that, the PlayStation 5.
00:29:42
Devon Kopete
wait Wait, so you've just been playing it in, in your, in your bedroom now.
00:29:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yes, it sucks.
00:29:47
Devon Kopete
Whoa. That's annoying and as fuck.
00:29:49
Phantom Libtard
Not on the big TV. Have you tried it on the big TV yet or no since since it worked?
00:29:52
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, I mean, I tried both ports. No, not since. No, I have not. I haven't tried retrying everything.
00:29:58
Devon Kopete
Hey, Chris, he's not trying to rock that boat.
00:30:01
slimeballsteve
He's like, I got it, I got it back.
00:30:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
I really, that's kind of the way it felt.
00:30:03
Devon Kopete
Yeah, I'm not.
00:30:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'm gonna call Sony tomorrow. I have like a hotline number. um and they, I'm gonna be transferred.
00:30:15
Phantom Libtard
Oh, man, be careful.
00:30:18
Phantom Libtard
Be like a No, because though if you say that it sounds working like three days ago, they'll be like, well, it looks like you just plattened a Belden ring yesterday.
00:30:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
What the fuck are you talking about, dummy?
00:30:29
Phantom Libtard
That sounds like your PlayStation's been working fine, sir.
00:30:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
Get out of here.
00:30:31
Devon Kopete
Well, I guess you're I guess you're a piece of shit my bad
00:30:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hang up. ah I just did it.
00:30:36
slimeballsteve
You can just be like, I'm just that good.
00:30:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't even have to see it.
00:30:40
slimeballsteve
I did it by sound.
00:30:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't even have to see the screen. No sound either. That was weird thing. There's no sound, no video. I don't know. And I've tried different cables, different ports in the back of the television.
00:30:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
so I really, I don't know. It's, it's beyond me at this point. I'm just going to call them, and see if there's a similar issue. Cause the cool thing about my PlayStation five, my TV, they're both Sony things products.
00:31:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
So yeah, it's a, well the TV I'm playing on right now, it's a Samsung TV.
00:31:08
slimeballsteve
with the TV you're playing on right now.
00:31:14
slimeballsteve
But the TV you usually play on is a Sony.
00:31:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
in my room.
00:31:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
Exactly, yes, it's a Bravia, Sony Bravia.
00:31:20
Devon Kopete
So horny, dude, yes, horny.
00:31:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
And the great thing, the cool thing about it though, it would turn, if I turned on my PlayStation 5, it would turn the TV on.
00:31:23
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, skinny.
00:31:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
It was off.
00:31:31
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, it usually does, yeah, it'll it has that link that link thing where and then if you yeah, if you turn on it'll switch to the to that input like that kind of thing.
00:31:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
Beautiful.
00:31:40
MERLINCHESTNUT
Now, that might be the problem, right?
00:31:40
slimeballsteve
That might that might be what is.
00:31:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
That might be the problem, right? That's what I was thinking too.
00:31:47
Phantom Libtard
Oh yeah yeah, so what you could do Chris is. You could turn on your bedroom TV now. You can go through the settings and see if you can turn that feature off and then try it.
00:31:59
Phantom Libtard
See if that works.
00:32:00
MERLINCHESTNUT
Okay, so that that is a feature I can shred off and then give that a shot.
00:32:03
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, there's a yeah, ill when we're done here, I'll i'll turn it on.
00:32:04
Devon Kopete
Yeah, yeah, there's an option.
00:32:06
Phantom Libtard
I'll turn mine on. I'll try to find the the setting page for you. But yeah, that could be that could be the issue.
00:32:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's weird.
00:32:12
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, that could definitely be the issue.
00:32:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
I know my parents have a similar television and they're having issues with their HDMI ports too. So that's also on top of everything else.
00:32:22
Phantom Libtard
Did you check this is such a weird thing to ask to, but like, did you check to see if like your TV's firmware needed to be updated or or whatever?
00:32:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
There's that.
00:32:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
Everything's updated.
00:32:30
Phantom Libtard
Because so everything is updated. Dang.
00:32:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
100%. Yeah. Up to date. I checked that first. Cause that's, I agree. Like that's what my dad said initially. There was like a firmware problem, but it looked, everything was up to date.
00:32:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
I weird Yeah, and I I beat beat fucking be redone kick this fucking ass up and down that tower Maybe I don't know and There's an input like yeah, it's um, yeah that DLC is beautiful um
00:32:46
Devon Kopete
Well, like you said, you got it working. So that's the important part.
00:32:57
Phantom Libtard
So maybe it was the TV that was holding you back on Radon. That input lag. Latency.
00:33:12
Phantom Libtard
Man, were you a little disappointed by like the quote unquote ending because they they just gave it like a three second like video memory after you beat after you beat them and it's like that's all we got.
00:33:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
I mean, listen, I get to the point where that that entire DLC is basically just feeling like this is how it started and this is how it ended.
00:33:25
Phantom Libtard
And and everything is empty.
00:33:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like this is the story from beginning to end.
00:33:34
Phantom Libtard
Yeah. But I wanted a little bit of a longer. Like memory, at least, you know.
00:33:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
I guess, but it's also kind of, i yeah like I was more upset.
00:33:43
Phantom Libtard
You we yeah, it's just like you grind so.
00:33:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
I was more upset at the boss fight than I was at that.
00:33:49
Phantom Libtard
Right, yeah, right, OK, and that's what I'm saying is like they give you.
00:33:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's the thing I'm upset about.
00:33:53
Phantom Libtard
They give you the boss fight and then like it's actually kind of like sad because like everything is just you feel empty after like you don't there's nowhere else to go.
00:34:00
MERLINCHESTNUT
I mean, that's, you've just killed a God. You killed a God that was trying to make everybody happy like happy and peaceful in the worst way possible. You know, like, but he would have made people happy.
00:34:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
It would have been like brave new world. Everybody wouldn't have any control over their lives, but you, you, you did kind of maybe got rid of the only hope that's in that world, but you killed it.
00:34:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
You know, that could that could be argued but like um I think the storytelling is better in the DLC to like I think the environmental storytelling and experiencing everything that Micola got like shredded from his body To become a god is that that whole story is great.
00:34:43
Phantom Libtard
Oh, yeah. Oh.
00:34:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's phenomenal and It's my I think my favorite story in in Elden Ring
00:34:48
Phantom Libtard
Yeah. Yeah, that's great.
00:34:54
Phantom Libtard
In the in Elden Ring.
00:34:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
Definitely because it's just somebody who's like I'm just gonna sacrifice everything and do exactly what mark mark a did but better and It's just such a bad idea from the get-go You know, it's gonna end in tragedy fucking sacrifice the only thing he loved St.
00:35:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
Trina in a bottom of a fucking hole It's like brutal
00:35:17
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, that's pretty that was pretty rough. It was rough. of The um like the the Super Smash Bros NPC battle right before that was pretty rough too.
00:35:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
The fact that like, it shows you how awful those people were too, because like, the charm was the only thing even more.
00:35:28
Phantom Libtard
It's pretty sad.
00:35:33
Phantom Libtard
Even more. More was a sweet boy.
00:35:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
i I mean, listen, the charm was the only thing holding them back. Like that was it. All those people were pieces of shit.
00:35:42
Phantom Libtard
I was like, da yeah.
00:35:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
I mean, maybe Anbok was cool. Thalier was a poisoner. Lita is a needle might psychopath the horn sent or genocidal maniacs like they're all not good people Yeah, it's just it's and it's totally really well I just I loved it.
00:36:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
and I was a little sad when I planned a bit too It did feel like that like I It did feel a little like after I got the last Talisman and I got the
00:36:10
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, end of an era. Nothing to go for anymore, you know.
00:36:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
the ending I needed. I felt a little empty.
00:36:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'm not gonna lie, like all things considered.
00:36:27
Phantom Libtard
What was the last thing you needed?
00:36:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
The Urtree favor plus two.
00:36:34
Phantom Libtard
What was that one?
00:36:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's after, it's in the Ashen capital.
00:36:39
Phantom Libtard
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:36:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Surrounded by ulcerated tree spirits.
00:36:41
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, yeah.
00:36:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
Then I just ran out and grabbed it.
00:36:44
Devon Kopete
Jesus, that's terrible.
00:36:45
Phantom Libtard
Oh, like in that little like lake area that looked like it used to be a lake or whatever.
00:36:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, yep, with the big pieces of trees, like the timber is just sticking out.
00:36:51
Phantom Libtard
Yeah. Yeah, there's like two or three of those tree spirits. Belly flopping around.
00:36:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
There's three of them down there. I never been there.
00:36:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
It was the first time I was ever there.
00:37:01
Phantom Libtard
It's awesome.
00:37:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
But yeah, once I got that, I just platinumed it.
00:37:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
It was crazy and I was like, oh, oh, you know, this is maybe top two, top three video games I've ever played. You know, like, had that,
00:37:16
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, it's gotta be want number one, Chris.
00:37:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
um Maybe You know, I had a I had a revelation there and it was just like oh, this is it man.
00:37:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
This is over now on everything What China China did Oh Isn't that the first Chinese triple-a game like my food con
00:37:26
Phantom Libtard
Well, somebody said that Blacksmith Wukong, it was the ocarina of time of this generation. and No, some dude on Twitter. And he got cooked.
00:37:38
Phantom Libtard
He got cooked for it. I don't know if he was kidding, though. He said it was a joke later, but it didn't feel like a joke. Original.
00:37:45
Devon Kopete
ah I Don't know if it's the first but it's it's a big one.
00:37:49
Devon Kopete
It's a big boy It might be nice like modern AAA.

Phantom Libtard
First AAA. all AI generated, all ai AI generated artwork for that game.

MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that's not good.
00:39:49
Devon Kopete

00:39:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's not good.
00:39:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that was rough.
00:39:58
Devon Kopete
Once you get past that. It's at least like the the story really gets moving and just it's a better area, you know.
00:40:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, I beat everybody in Queens blood. That's all that matters.
00:40:09
Devon Kopete
So every oh, no, you have not.

00:40:18
MERLINCHESTNUT

00:40:43
Phantom Libtard
It was so good.
00:40:45
Devon Kopete
Yeah, I literally I just went to jail. I was like, this is so much better. So much better than all of like, you could say season of four is not bad in a bubble.
00:40:55
Phantom Libtard
No, it was bad. It was bad. It it and was bad.
00:40:56
Devon Kopete
But like, no, I'm like, this fucking stinks, dude.
00:40:56
MERLINCHESTNUT

Devon Kopete
It sucks compared like, yeah.
00:41:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, five.
00:41:02
Phantom Libtard
Like the even the the from the get go like, I think I fell asleep during the first episode of season four.
00:41:07
Devon Kopete
Well, I mean, I remember we got to a point in like, you know, at some point in season four where I just went to, je I was like, this just, you're just waiting for something to happen. Nothing's happening.
00:41:18
Devon Kopete
Cause like there was the crazy brother and I was just like, how many times are are they going to tease that he's going to go crazy?
00:41:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, you got, you got to see monk, monk, monk, munch, munch.
00:41:28
Devon Kopete
Yeah. Yeah. So I, we ended up, we ended on episode,
00:41:28
slimeballsteve
Monks in that game. The show.
00:41:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think it's much actually.
00:41:33
Devon Kopete
Yeah, yeah, we ended on episode three I think where he like went into a cave and covered himself in mud Yeah,
00:41:33
Phantom Libtard
Munch it munch.
00:41:40
MERLINCHESTNUT
I love that guy.
00:41:41
Phantom Libtard
Hell yeah.
00:41:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
I love that guy.
00:41:44
Devon Kopete
he's I live here now ah like what that I mean there is Yeah, yeah, he's a mama.
00:41:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
You are, you know, he calls her mother too, right?
00:41:53
Devon Kopete
I'm going out tonight mama what
00:41:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
I want pancakes mama.
00:41:57
Devon Kopete
Yeah, so weird.
00:41:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
That guy's great.
00:42:01
Devon Kopete
No, but like super good. And also I've been watching this show called Chimp Crazy. It's like so the guy that did Tiger King did a new show called Chimp Crazy on HBO.
00:42:17
Devon Kopete
And it's basically you meet Jill Exotic. Like it is just like the same level of fucking crazy.
00:42:24
Devon Kopete
Uh, this woman's like, I just, I, I love chimps more than I love my kids. And you're like, well, I'm really, I'm sure they're your children are thrilled that you just said that on TV. Um, but it's basically about this woman who owned, uh, you know, like a kind of a roadside zoo, but for, with just chimps, like a chimp enclave.
00:42:46
Devon Kopete
um And then this other person came up to like a sis. She's like, oh, my God, I just always loved chimps. And then she's like, I fell in love with the chimps. And then there were other people that were working there.
00:42:57
Devon Kopete
And then essentially ah the one woman just felt so bad for the the chimpanzees that live there that she just called PETA. And then there's like a whole then like there's a whole episode about how PETA got involved and fucking um Jim Cummings.
00:43:13
Devon Kopete
No, not him.
00:43:15
Devon Kopete
um Alan Cumming, the yeah, yeah, Nightcrawler.
00:43:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, my crawler.
00:43:21
Devon Kopete
Like he's he's in it because he's like a big PETA guy. And he talks about how he did this movie where he worked with this chimp called Tonka. And he's like, yeah, you know, when his chimps can apparently only at the time, they don't obviously they don't even do it now.
00:43:36
Devon Kopete
But he's like at the time, you know, they can really only act until they're like five. before they get kind of too old to kind of, you know, wrangle, essentially. So he's like, yeah, he's like, I gained a a really close relationship with Tonka. And then eventually, you know, they just said, oh, yeah, he's retired. and He's just like hanging out. And then he didn't realize like the poor.
00:44:00
Devon Kopete
you know standards this chimp was living in and then like PETA gets involved and then this woman fucking they think she stole a chimp and then she's like that's crazy why would I do that and then you you just know something fucky about the whole situation and she's an idiot and her husband's an idiot but despite that like they just kind of keep getting away with stuff and it's it's a page turner man in terms of a show
00:44:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
I can't, I can't do it. I can't do it again.
00:44:28
Devon Kopete
Dude, I was into it like by the end of season or episode two.
00:44:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
And I, not with animals. I can't do animals anymore.
00:44:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
Cause like when I watched that tiger King, it was in the first episode was an indictment of why he shouldn't own tigers.
00:44:40
Devon Kopete
Yeah, exactly.
00:44:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
And I'm like, I, why am I watching somebody abuse animals?
00:44:45
Devon Kopete
Well, you know what the fucked up part was? So the guy said that and I didn't realize this, but the guy that did Tiger King, you know, he was like I was he's like I grew up in the animal kind of he was like he was a Worked in the circus and stuff like that. He's like really well known in the circles. That's how he got all the Access they did for Tiger King but he's like since then obviously it's it's people just fucking they tell him to fuck off now so he hires up what he calls a proxy director and I was like, how is this just not them straight up lying to this woman and
00:45:23
Devon Kopete
because he basically he's he found another guy and he's like, yeah, he asked me to be a proxy director.
00:45:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
This is so slimy.
00:45:28
Devon Kopete
I don't know what a proxy did. It's slimy across the board. Like it really kind of is. But like, you know, just watch it. I'm like, Jesus Christ, this is I can't stop watching.
00:45:41
Devon Kopete
It's, a you know, it's quite good to be to be completely honest with you. But, you know, I get it.
00:45:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'll be honest with you, that could be the best documentary I'll ever watch.
00:45:53
Devon Kopete
Well, that guy's also doing the WW.
00:45:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
how much that oh about another animal uh cool animal that owns other animals it's
00:45:55
Devon Kopete
He's doing the Vince McMahon documentary in like December. Yeah, exactly.
00:46:01
Devon Kopete
Um, yeah. So, uh, yeah, you poops and peas on those animals. Yeah, it's going to be crazy.
00:46:09
MERLINCHESTNUT
like a gorilla that owns lions oh
00:46:10
Devon Kopete
Yeah. And, uh, I also, I, I beat robo cop the video game.
00:46:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
I gotta do that too that's on my list I know I was
00:46:17
Devon Kopete
That's a fun game, man. Chris, how far were you?
00:46:20
Phantom Libtard
Did you win? Did Robocop win in the end?
00:46:22
Devon Kopete
Robocop one dude there was so there's a lot of like RPG elements in the sense of like You talk to people like there's a there's a ah election going on and everybody's trying to get Robocop's like to vote for him and You know, so like at at various points they ask you your opinion on this candidate versus that candidate because there's like the the mayor from Robocop to
00:46:48
Devon Kopete
ah the young mayor who's like, fuck OCP, OCP is the worst. But then there's this other mayor who's very pro OCP, but then also he's like, if I'm elected, I'm going to give people like Robocop, like human rights. So then you're like, oh, who do I, who do I, you know, ah back in terms of my, ah you know, them trying to get elected as mayor. And no, it's just it went a lot deeper in the story than I was honestly expecting.
00:47:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think I, where I stopped, I was, I was going to a biker gang hideout.
00:47:25
Devon Kopete
Oh, man, so you're pretty pretty early in still.
00:47:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
Okay. All right.
00:47:30
Devon Kopete
Yeah, I will say it does run a little bit longer than it probably should. And I think that's solely because the mechanics of the game is like you do a mission and then you go back to.
00:47:42
Devon Kopete
Uh, the police station, which is awesome.
00:47:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
The station. Yeah.
00:47:45
Devon Kopete
But then it's like, and then you, then you go to like the city area and then you like patrol more. And then you do a mission and then you go back to the police station.
00:47:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
They put you in the blowjob chair.
00:47:55
Devon Kopete
And they kind of do that like one time too many.
00:47:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
And then, yeah.
00:47:58
Devon Kopete
And there was a point where I was like, Jesus Christ. And it doesn't help that while extremely authentic, it doesn't help that Robocop is very slow. Uh, so you're like, dude,
00:48:11
Devon Kopete
What the fuck? It's like, oh, go to this mark. That's like 200 feet away or 200 meters away. And you're like, this is going to take me three minutes. Just the fucking.
00:48:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
You just hear that for the whole game.
00:48:21
Devon Kopete
Yeah. Yeah. And it's like it's just like Walther's combat.
00:48:25
Devon Kopete
Like he has a dash move. ah But like you can't dash in non combat.
00:48:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
Now, when you're writing car tickets, you can't do that.
00:48:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah I think it's it's it's kind of funny, too, because you're doing you're doing really stupid like police shit.
00:48:35
Devon Kopete
but So I will say, I think it runs like a little bit longer than it should. But like overall, du I was. I have a lot of fucking fun with that game.
00:48:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
where he's writing tickets for like people that are parked next to like their times run out on a meter.
00:48:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
And they're like, Hey man, time ran out. And you have a choice. Like you write them a ticket, like time run out. That is the law. Or you could be like, don't let it happen again.
00:49:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
And you kind of serve
00:49:08
Devon Kopete
Yeah, you just gi more you can either uphold the law or serve the public trust.
00:49:13
MERLINCHESTNUT
the public trust.
00:49:14
Devon Kopete
And I will say I, for the most part, serve the public trust unless they were littering.
00:49:19
Devon Kopete
And then I was like, you're going to fucking take it, my guy. We throw fucking bottles in the water, you fuck.
00:49:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that's pretty shitty, right
00:49:26
Devon Kopete
Yeah. Well, the trash people, they take my trash. It's like, fuck it. I don't care, dude.
00:49:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, he's dumping all this trash up there
00:49:31
Devon Kopete
Eat shit. Yeah, but ah the cool it well, one of the coolest features is so you have Robocop's classic gun and then you have a sidearm and the sidearms are fun.
00:49:46
Devon Kopete
They're all pretty cool. And it's just really fun to just pick up like an SMG and just spray and pray just like fucking go nuts.
00:49:53
Devon Kopete
But you can get these chips that further enhance Robocop's main gun. So his main pistol will always be viable. And then there's like different firing modes that you can get on.
00:50:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
it's a it's a cute little mini game too or you gotta line up these little things that's
00:50:06
Devon Kopete
Yeah, yeah, it is. It's it's but like, dude, it's fucking a lot of fun, dude. It really is worth like I think I got on sale for like 40 bucks. Like I was so into this. So.
00:50:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
what that's after Final Fantasy 7 and and Dave the Diver
00:50:18
Devon Kopete
Yeah, and it is. Yeah, it is budget, though.
00:50:22
Devon Kopete
Fucking full like there's they have money for one voice actor and it's Peter Weller like
00:50:29
slimeballsteve
That's still a damn good one to get for a Robocop game.
00:50:30
Devon Kopete
No, no, no. Yeah.
00:50:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, it's good it's a good pull.
00:50:32
Devon Kopete
That's it. But like in terms of everybody he interacts with, I was like, dude, they just got the guy.
00:50:38
Devon Kopete
They got some interns in the fucking in the booth.
00:50:39
slimeballsteve
they They just got this the staff. Come on in here.
00:50:42
Devon Kopete
yeah Yeah. Some of it's like like the guy and the guy playing the sergeant, like the guy who's like, but we're not ever going to go on strike.
00:50:43
slimeballsteve
hey Hey Pete, since we're paying you so much, can you do some other voices real quick for us?
00:50:50
Devon Kopete
Like I was like, this is terrible. Like you should never pick this man. This just doesn't sound like he's close.
00:50:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
I like the jerk off OCP guy.
00:50:59
Devon Kopete
Yeah, Becker. Yeah.
00:51:00
MERLINCHESTNUT
He's pretty cool, actually.
00:51:01
Phantom Libtard
fucking corp
00:51:01
Devon Kopete
No, yeah. Yeah.
00:51:02
Phantom Libtard
Fucking corporal Courtney's a corporal rat So am I
00:51:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
He's a corporate piece of shit.
00:51:04
Devon Kopete
And then, of course, which led me. Yeah.
00:51:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, 100%.
00:51:07
Devon Kopete
And then this, of course, led me into a rewatch of Robocop, which is, you know, so weird to say that movie holds up, guys. I don't know if you know those, but Robocop, Robocop is still really good, guys.
00:51:16
slimeballsteve
It's a masterpiece.
00:51:16
Phantom Libtard
Not yet. Yeah, that's yeah but say class classic.
00:51:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
Kind of lightning in a bottle, I think.
00:51:21
Devon Kopete
Yeah. Fucking so good.
00:51:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
Kind of hard to replicate.
00:51:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's a hard one to replicate.
00:51:25
Devon Kopete
And of course,
00:51:25
slimeballsteve
I mean, they literally tried and failed.
00:51:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, 100% bunch.
00:51:28
Devon Kopete
Yeah. And of course, I was like, Jenny, I really want you to see rollercoaster movies really important. So of course you fell asleep at 10 seconds.
00:51:34
slimeballsteve
Oh, is that the tweet?
00:51:34
Phantom Libtard
This movie was really important to me.
00:51:35
slimeballsteve
I saw your tweet and I was like, I wonder what movie.
00:51:35
Devon Kopete
Yeah, I was like that. night You know what pissed me off, too, is like she woke up like near the end and then she was like, oh, no, as if she was watching the whole time.
00:51:47
Devon Kopete
I thought I was fucking serious.
00:51:49
Phantom Libtard
How dare you how dare you Yeah,
00:51:50
Devon Kopete
I mean, how dare you do?
00:51:51
slimeballsteve
Dude her brain might have been filling in gaps of the movie that she was like asleep for Oh No
00:51:53
Devon Kopete
Good. yeah Because there was like this scene where fucking they like the at 209 shooting Robocop and he's being betrayed She's like, oh no, I was like, don't you even fucking dare?
00:52:04
Devon Kopete
It's like you barely got to the part where he got blown Yeah, oh
00:52:06
Phantom Libtard
yeah Robocop could have been could have been a pet of serial killer killer this entire movie you wouldn't even know don't even
00:52:13
Devon Kopete
I'm a spit on her I'm so disgusted Jesus Christ Yeah, are you kidding me?
00:52:17
slimeballsteve
You're rooting for that RoboCop?
00:52:21
Devon Kopete

00:52:23
slimeballsteve
This guy's disgusting, man.
00:52:28
Devon Kopete
Yeah, no, that that's it for me. I it was a lot, but I was I was watching a good keynote this week.
00:52:34
slimeballsteve
That sounds like a like a good week.
00:52:36
Devon Kopete
I'm playing some good keynote this week.
00:52:37
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, I didn't really, I didn't why't watch any Kino.

Devon Kopete
What, too, you mean you piece of shit?
00:52:47
slimeballsteve
I'm sorry, book two, uh, look to pardon me, excuse me.
00:52:51
Devon Kopete
How is the mise-en-scene?
00:52:53
slimeballsteve
Let me just say the mise-en-scene is quite phenomenal in the avatar. Uh, I just finished the the episode where they go through the secret tunnel. Um, and that was a fun one, uh, because it has put an earworm in my head of just people singing.
00:53:09
Devon Kopete
Man, that doesn't ring any bells for me.
00:53:12
slimeballsteve
Doesn't ring about, there's a part there's a part where they go, secret tunnel, secret tunnel, through the mountain, secret, secret, secret, secret tunnel.
00:53:16
MERLINCHESTNUT
Secret tunnel Yeah, dude Yeah
00:53:23
slimeballsteve
And that's just been in my head. I'll just be like like doing stuff at home and I'll just be singing like doing dishes.
00:53:28
Devon Kopete
I think like I like i remember the book one, like most of book one and then the last book because it's like
00:53:38
Devon Kopete
Like she gets real at that point.
00:53:39
slimeballsteve
book book book one is like it's light and then book two uh they dude it's like they go back to all the places like the fun little like earth city where they're like going down all the ramps in omashu is just take it over no
00:53:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
Ba Sing Se.
00:53:50
Devon Kopete
Yeah. Yeah, dude, I love. Yeah, yeah. Wait, do you so Toph, you met Toph at this point.
00:53:57
slimeballsteve
not yet not yet not yet not yet not yet not yet not yet not yet not yet yeah
00:54:01
Devon Kopete
Yeah. Pop is once Toph shows up, that's like when the show gets going, dude.
00:54:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
Steve, you didn't get to the sad Uncle Iroh episode either, little thing.
00:54:09
slimeballsteve
Dude, every Uncle Iroh moment is fantastic.
00:54:12
slimeballsteve
I love that guy. ah He's the best.
00:54:14
Devon Kopete
Yeah, uncle I was clutch, dude.
00:54:16
MERLINCHESTNUT
he's great
00:54:16
slimeballsteve
He's the best. Even in season one, when I'm like, you know what, Fire Nation, ah you know I get they're the bad guys, but also like this Uncle Iroh, he's got a good head on his shoulders.
00:54:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'll be honest with you, that live action show, that was the weakest part.
00:54:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
Was, oh yeah, he was not good.
00:54:33
Phantom Libtard
But it was, the show was okay though, right?
00:54:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
Show was okay.
00:54:35
Phantom Libtard
As a whole.
00:54:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
There was a lot of good things about the show, but he wasn't good.
00:54:39
Devon Kopete
but if you fuck up uncle ira
00:54:41
slimeballsteve
Uncle Ira man But I like it I think this is a show that like I definitely have like sat on my hands just because I don't know like I I think there's a part of me that is like sometimes very ignorant of things that are ah Quote-unquote popular.
00:54:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
He wasn't good. He was very, like, not as charismatic as Gliros.
00:55:02
slimeballsteve
So it's like I'm really sorry about this thing. I'm not gonna watch it I'm not gonna watch it. I'm gonna watch some weird thing that nobody's ever watched.
00:55:08
slimeballsteve
I'm gonna watch a I a Nipple man on YouTube Hipster No,
00:55:12
Devon Kopete
Why am I blanking on what the term is?
00:55:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
That was a nipple, man.
00:55:14
Devon Kopete
They're like a very specific term for what you do. I can't remember what it is though. Yeah, I guess.
00:55:21
Devon Kopete
Yeah, I guess you won't.
00:55:22
slimeballsteve
but I know what you're talking about but uh, I think it was just like, you know, ah like len let me see what this is about
00:55:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
You're going against the green, man.
00:55:29
slimeballsteve
Yeah, cuz that's the thing I think I'd been burned before cuz when I think about being burned before I think about when I thought I'm gonna mention this last week where ah ah Let's attack on Titan I thought attack on Titan was gonna be like some fun taken down giant show I Did not I did not real contrarian.
00:55:47
Devon Kopete
A contrarian that's.
00:55:49
slimeballsteve
Thank you. I did not realize it was misery porn. So I
00:55:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
well Yeah, yes I I think avatar does a really good job of Making a show that's not it's adult enough like
00:55:54
Devon Kopete
Yeah, it does turn a corner, not to like fun, but it like it it goes to like misery porn to like Game of Thrones, like.
00:56:02
slimeballsteve
i'll i'll take I'll take that though.
00:56:03
Devon Kopete
Political intrigue and you're like, what?
00:56:04
slimeballsteve
Wait, are we talking about Attack on Titan?
00:56:06
Devon Kopete
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:56:07
slimeballsteve
Okay. Attack on Titan, yeah. I want to go back to it at some point.
00:56:19
slimeballsteve
It is adult enough, yeah.
00:56:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
It rides that line between being a kid, especially in book two and book three of being a kid show and being for adults. And it does it really well. And that's a hard line to ride.
00:56:31
slimeballsteve
If I was watching this back when it came out, I'd probably, yeah, i'd I'd be in, but I think at the time it was coming out, I think there was a part of me that was a little bit like, come on, I'm not gonna watch Nickoludid.
00:56:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, a lot of people said that.
00:56:46
slimeballsteve
I'm not gonna watch Nickoludid. Me and Chris Galante are gonna watch Giallo down at the local cinema.
00:56:53
Devon Kopete
Yeah. And then you s spit in my face.
00:56:56
slimeballsteve
but The mise-en-scene, Chris!
00:56:57
Devon Kopete
but Yeah. yeah
00:56:59
slimeballsteve
The mise-en-scene!
00:57:00
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, I know. I spit in Devin's face too.
00:57:06
Phantom Libtard
and Wolverine and Deadpool make a cameo!
00:57:11
Devon Kopete
and twelve are at thatpo
00:57:12
Phantom Libtard
ah Watch a Marvel movie, pussy!
00:57:17
slimeballsteve
It's so good. I'm having fun with it and you know, yeah
00:57:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that's a great show. Great show. Really, really great. ah what anything else
00:57:26
Phantom Libtard
What else?
00:57:26
slimeballsteve
Oh, I bought Castlevania Dominus Collection, the DS games of Castlevania, and it is it's a thing that like my brain was like, how are they gonna do this?
00:57:28
Phantom Libtard
What else?
00:57:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
Dominate me, Castlevania.
00:57:32
Phantom Libtard
Tom and Atrix Collection.
00:57:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
Dominate my asshole.
00:57:39
slimeballsteve
And then when I started playing it, I was like, oh, they took out most of like the ah like the actual like needing to use the stylus. The other screens are just to the right, so like you constantly have the minimap on the screen.
00:57:52
Phantom Libtard
They were done patched. They made it easier to appeal to the casual audience.
00:57:57
Phantom Libtard
That's, you know.
00:57:58
Devon Kopete
Also known as making it remotely playable.
00:58:02
slimeballsteve
like that's one of those things because they they really had a ah hard time doing that for um of course what was that i mean you are correct with with styluses at least
00:58:03
Phantom Libtard
Oh, because touch screens don't exist anymore. they they they They went out of style after the DS came out.
00:58:16
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that's why I think I do work.
00:58:16
Devon Kopete
You'll say, the could yeah, the switch is touchscreen, right? Yeah.
00:58:19
Phantom Libtard
I still use my finger for some of those seals in the, um, by the, by the, hehehe, flicking that bean.
00:58:22
Devon Kopete
I bet you do, you'll creep.
00:58:27
Phantom Libtard
Now, but I mean, uh, I remember playing, playing Dawn of Sorrow on the DS and when you're, when you are at a boss fight, I had to take the stylus out and hold it in my hand while I was playing, just so I knew to be ready, you know?
00:58:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yep, you hold it in the other hand, like...
00:58:45
Phantom Libtard
ah so Then there's something cool about that. I don't know.
00:58:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
I agree, I think...
00:58:49
Phantom Libtard
Konami why don't they just make more fucking slot machines instead they just do that Just remit get blueber team to to fucking to remake a classic No, it's only the purists and Tim will Tim is a purist but the ultra pure Silent Hope purists are a the only ones like actually like really really upset about it
00:58:53
slimeballsteve
yeah God it, what? No!
00:59:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hey man, they might knock it out of the park. how hi Everybody's down, shitting on it, it could be good, it's all hell too.
00:59:18
slimeballsteve
i'm I'm very upset about it. every Every trailer I have seen where it has a cutscene, it just feels so wrong. it's It feels like they're emphasizing the wrong syllable in every cutscene, basically.
00:59:29
Phantom Libtard
do you think Do you think the people you think that people that hate hated Resident Evil 4 Remake felt similar to similar vibes when they were playing Resident Evil 4 Remake?
00:59:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, I didn't see any cutscenes.
00:59:42
Phantom Libtard
ah Like the people like Croabcat that thought that Resident Evil 4 Remake was soless soulless remake.
00:59:46
slimeballsteve
i think I think the difference, I think Crobcat did that because he was looking for the latest thing to make money off of on YouTube.
00:59:56
Phantom Libtard
You think that's what he does?
00:59:56
slimeballsteve
So he was, I think i think he was hoping to drum up drama on that one.
00:59:57
Phantom Libtard
I don't know. i know i mean To be honest, I think he really felt I mean I I think people some people really do feel that way about the remake of Resident before and it's okay I didn't feel that way but um Yeah Yeah, some people are actually racist they actually feel that way about people that aren't white, you know
01:00:10
slimeballsteve
I mean, you can be a criminal, just like, you know, be loud and proud about it. like
01:00:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, listen, listen, if they if they don't if they can't get the cutscenes right, if it's not that weird tone, then maybe they're gonna fuck it up.
01:00:27
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, it's just the math. It's just the fact that the studio that's doing it is like. I don't know. Like you feel like. For somebody to remake a game like that, like you should you should hand pick note like no fucking budget limitations and hand pick a studio that'll be that'll do it right, that you know, they'll do it right.
01:00:49
Phantom Libtard
Somebody that's like that's proven themselves before, you know.
01:00:52
slimeballsteve
maybe like them with what they're doing with Metal Gear Solid 3, because that looks so good.
01:00:54
Phantom Libtard
It's Silent Hill 2. Yeah, maybe get their top their top studio to do it, you know? oh
01:01:02
slimeballsteve
That remake looks incredible.
01:01:04
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, it does.
01:01:05
Devon Kopete
You know, it's funny because I, every preview, not everyone, but I walked a preview and all they did was complain about how they didn't change anything.
01:01:14
Phantom Libtard
For what?
01:01:14
Devon Kopete
And it just, it, no, for a middle of your solid Delta, they were like, well, like, you know, they didn't, they're like, it just feels like it it's a reskin.
01:01:15
Phantom Libtard
For Silent Hill?
01:01:18
Phantom Libtard
Oh. Well, what are they gonna fucking change?
01:01:25
Devon Kopete
And I'm like, no, funny enough. but That's what half the people complain about when they get a remake that changes things.
01:01:32
Devon Kopete
you know And it's just like, dude, you really can't win.
01:01:35
slimeballsteve
Either either do your damn.
01:01:35
Devon Kopete
Somebody's going to bitch.
01:01:35
Phantom Libtard
yeah Yeah, it's just whoever it's whoever's the loudest will get their voice will get their bad opinion out their bad takes out
01:01:38
Devon Kopete
Somebody's going to complain. Because I'll be honest, yeah.
01:01:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, it's easy to criticize a remake, right?
01:01:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like it's the easiest thing in the world, I would imagine, because you have something else to compare it to.
01:01:50
slimeballsteve
What are what are the like best viewed remakes in the worst viewed? I mean, I think Resident Evil four, one of the best Resident Evil two Resident Evil in general has a ton of.
01:01:57
Devon Kopete
I was able to. Yeah, Resident Evil 1 might be the most like well thought of remake, I think.
01:02:05
slimeballsteve
That's like the pivotal game remake.
01:02:09
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, yeah, I'd say so.
01:02:09
Devon Kopete
But ah yeah, I mean, just...
01:02:12
Phantom Libtard
And if and any to be honest, too, like that game basically. I don't want to fucking like reduce what it was because it really wasn't a fucking masterpiece, but it was basically a reskin.
01:02:25
Phantom Libtard
Right. I mean, not necessarily a reskin, but like they didn't change how the game is played intrinsically.
01:02:31
Phantom Libtard
You know, they it's still tank controls. It's still it's still Resident Evil.
01:02:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
I will say as somebody who's playing Rebirth right now, I kind of wanted them to change more about the story in that.
01:02:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like I think that was the one part of Final Fantasy 7 that could do with the remake. And I don't think they did enough. I mean, I listen, I haven't finished it, of course.
01:02:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
But like I, I wanted more change.
01:02:57
Phantom Libtard
Isn't aren't a lot of people's problems with that is that they change too much? okay
01:03:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, but the first, the first game they did the first one, they changed a lot and that was cool.
01:03:02
Devon Kopete
Yeah. Yeah. No, I mean, yeah.
01:03:03
slimeballsteve
The first one, yeah, that was a lot of people.
01:03:07
Devon Kopete
But I mean, like in general, yeah, but I mean, just in general that they they're just mad that it's not a one to one and it's like, I don't.
01:03:08
slimeballsteve
I loved the dad about the first one.
01:03:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, like I didn't want this part of final fantasy seven to be a one-on-one because it's not the strongest part of the game.
01:03:21
slimeballsteve
The strongest part of the game is the beginning of that game.
01:03:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
I wanted them.
01:03:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
It is like I, if anything, I would want all the change to happen now and rebirth. And then the last one where the change is needed, you know, like I, that's the way I look at most remakes.
01:03:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like you can fix the bad parts, fix the parts that are dated that don't work. Don't fix the parts that work, you know, like keep that shit there. That's good. That's what I look for.
01:03:49
Devon Kopete
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, like rebirth main thing. And I mean, I don't think less of them for kind of leaning on this, but like one of the biggest selling points is like, how are they going to do the scene at the, you know, in rebirth?
01:04:04
MERLINCHESTNUT
I guess, but like, I don't like those scenes in the original Final Fantasy seven. Like I don't like them. but Like, well, Eric definitely like, but I don't like everything with Zach.
01:04:10
Devon Kopete
You don't like, you don't like the earth death scene.
01:04:16
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's just stupid and convoluted and dumb. Like they should have, they should have nipped that shit in the bud and made it better.
01:04:19
Devon Kopete
How about that?
01:04:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like that's, that's, I guess so.
01:04:24
Devon Kopete
But I mean, I think they are because the Zach stuff in in the original is very underplayed. It's like very underplayed. It's like.
01:04:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
It is, but it's so important to the plot.
01:04:34
Devon Kopete
Right, which is why when they expand on it in this one, I'm into it.
01:04:38
slimeballsteve
I'm not gonna lie, the beginning of Rebirth confused the shit out of me.
01:04:44
Devon Kopete
Right. But I think that's also the point, right?
01:04:45
slimeballsteve
I was like, it's probably the point, but also like, it kind of made me go like, oh, maybe I needed to play that Battle Royale on mobile to get what's going on here.
01:04:46
Devon Kopete
You're supposed to go, what?
01:04:55
Devon Kopete
You did not know that at all.
01:04:55
Phantom Libtard
now No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:04:57
slimeballsteve
Like, what is happening? I definitely i definitely feel the dick of the Kingdom Hearts director slowly pressing up against the asshole of Final Fantasy VII.
01:05:09
Devon Kopete
Uh, listen, if there's, if there's, yeah, if there's one game that I would be like, may maybe play this and even even, even then it won't really answer a lot of questions, but it will just get you more familiar.
01:05:10
slimeballsteve
It was a very lewd description. I don't know why I said that.
01:05:23
Devon Kopete
Zach is that Zach final fantasy game, which is of course, uh, fucking, I have no idea what it's called. Uh, yeah, but like they, they remade it.
01:05:30
slimeballsteve
Yeah, what was that?
01:05:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
i'm never goingnna do that
01:05:30
slimeballsteve
The the PSP one, right?
01:05:35
Devon Kopete
Uh, in, in the other one, crisis core. Uh, it's a crisis core reunion or something like that. Um, but even then that like, there's not a lot that makes you go like, Oh, sure.
01:05:47
Devon Kopete
But in terms of figuring out like what kind of characters Zach is, because that obviously translates, translates into all the Zach stuff in rebirth.
01:05:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'm never gonna do that.
01:05:58
Devon Kopete
It's like, okay, that is the same guy. Like, okay. Like I understand. He acts very similar and also Zach might be just the funniest character.
01:06:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
Listen, I'm 10 chapters in and I don't, I have no, I don't have a better outlook on Zach than I did when I played it originally.
01:06:16
Devon Kopete
Oh, you had no outlook on Zach when he recently.
01:06:16
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like I really didn't.
01:06:19
Devon Kopete
Yeah, you have.
01:06:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
I mean, and I, and I, it's, it's that part of the story that I don't give a flying fuck about at all, like at all.
01:06:21
Devon Kopete
There's at least something there.
01:06:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
and And I, to me, that was the easiest thing to cut or change. And I didn't do it. at least not yet yeah no that's not good just that got rid of yeah but we're we're talking about a ah game that's like functionally changing time and reality and
01:06:35
Devon Kopete
Well, I mean, they they changed it. They just added more of it, which I don't know. yeah Where it sounds like you're like, I want that. But like Zach's is so important to the main story. It's just.
01:06:35
slimeballsteve
Yeah, with with how much they changed in one.
01:06:53
Devon Kopete
Right, but it's also like the biggest feature of of remake is that he's not dead at the end in an alternate timeline. And then it's and as Steve says, as Steve says, the butthole is slowly getting pressed and you're like, what's happening?
01:07:09
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't know if that's the biggest feature for me for the end of Final Fantasy 7.
01:07:12
slimeballsteve
It's not that it was on the back of the box, Chris. Come on.
01:07:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
When Zach showing up was not the feature of that game.
01:07:18
slimeballsteve
The back says Zach's back.
01:07:20
Devon Kopete
Yeah, that's back, buddy.
01:07:21
slimeballsteve
All you Zach heads get to go nuts.
01:07:23
Devon Kopete
Get ready, Zach's back.
01:07:24
slimeballsteve
If you pre-order, you get the Zach pack, which features three new skins for Zach.
01:07:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think that would make me not want to buy it if that was on there in some way.
01:07:32
Devon Kopete
Yeah, but I mean, like the biggest surprise and change of the story is like Zach's alive and you're like, wait, what? And that's what's pissed off half the people.
01:07:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, it's not pissing me off and it's not what I figured to be the best part of Final Fantasy 7 Remake. The best part of Final Fantasy 7 Remake are the weird time changes that occur in the first half of that game.
01:07:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's the fun stuff.
01:07:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't care. I could give a flying fuck about that.
01:07:58
slimeballsteve
Well, this is this is the interesting thing, because when you're talking about the remakes like we were, you can either, you know, be meticulously loyal to the original or you can John Carpenter it and, you know, go with like the thing where like you completely change what is going on and make your own sort of story with just the premise of the original.
01:08:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think I wanted that. I think I wanted that more than what I got, but I haven't finished it. So I don't know how that's gonna end exactly.
01:08:26
Devon Kopete
Yeah. Well, apparently, uh, what's the vibe on Silent Hill to remake? Like, I know they were like, Oh, well, we change some things, but obviously they're not going to change all of it because you can't.
01:08:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
I just don't understand. I don't get how they're gonna do those weird cut scenes. I just don't get it.
01:08:46
Phantom Libtard
like the rape Like the pyramid head rape cutscene in the beginning.
01:08:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
that's the one
01:08:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, not that. No, I don't even talk about that. I'm just talking about the weird interactions you have with people.
01:08:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's so like dated, but like it fits and it's just it's weird.
01:08:57
slimeballsteve
It. It feels like what all those like liminal horror things try to do, where like everything is like exists, but it just like is like the serial.
01:09:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
And surreal and it doesn't feel real like that stuff.
01:09:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
You really got to hammer that tone in.
01:09:13
slimeballsteve
They I don't know what they did with the PlayStation two, but they captured that on that on that console.
01:09:20
slimeballsteve
and And you know, when they updated graphics for some reason, they couldn't capture that. They couldn't bottle that up again.
01:09:25
Devon Kopete
I think we just had lower standards and there's some nostalgia glasses going on with Silent Hill 2, if I'm being like completely honest.
01:09:34
slimeballsteve
I mean, the i'm i'm so I'm not saying like the graphics were great, but like just the the way everybody looks like kind of just like these like super pale, unhealthy dolls and it's weird and
01:09:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
it's the It's tone, man.
01:09:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, like that aesthetic kind of feeds into the tone of the the game.
01:09:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
if you don't If you fuck with it, but that that that game to me, it's not about gameplay. It's barely about the story. It's just like atmosphere. Like, if you fuck with the atmosphere, it's just vibes.
01:10:03
Devon Kopete
Just vibes, man.
01:10:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
You don't you get that?
01:10:05
slimeballsteve
I mean, two definitely has story, like it's.
01:10:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
I know, too, it's a story, but that's not the most important part of that game. The most important part of that game is walking around and feeling like you're by yourself all the time, loneliness.
01:10:15
Phantom Libtard
Well, for Silent Hill 2?
01:10:17
Phantom Libtard
Nah, the story's the most important part of Silent Hill 2, hands down.
01:10:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
I disagree. I disagree 100%.
01:10:21
Phantom Libtard
Nah, I- I- Did I- Did I think you didn't play the game?
01:10:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
I disagree 100%.
01:10:23
slimeballsteve
I think, I think, I think for...
01:10:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, I did play the game.
01:10:25
Phantom Libtard
I'm not to fight with you- I'm not trying to fight with you here, Chris, but Silent Hill 2 has probably the most important story.
01:10:26
slimeballsteve
yeah The atmosphere makes Silent Hill, Silent Hill.
01:10:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
nothing No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:10:31
Phantom Libtard
Probably in any video game, I think.
01:10:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
The story is great, but I think the atmosphere of that game is far more important. Far more important. Yes.
01:10:40
Phantom Libtard
I mean, but the no no, but the thing is is that the thing is is that that's ah that was already established in the first game.
01:10:45
Phantom Libtard
It was it was very it was very similar to the first games in my atmosphere.
01:10:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, no, no, but not to that degree. And I don't think it did it to the the caliber of Soul Hill 2.
01:10:53
slimeballsteve
I think, I think like one, one, one, two, and three are the silent Hill games.
01:10:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't think any Soul Hill game does.
01:10:59
slimeballsteve
And even for, which was still made by that team, it felt like it was like that team being like kicked out of Konami at the time. So that's why it doesn't feel as like true to those core three games, but it feels like every time they try to do a silent Hill now, it feels like it's just silent Hill in name only, but like,
01:11:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, definitely. did They fuck with the tone, I think.
01:11:22
slimeballsteve
silent Silent Hill 2, the story is like kind of what became like what is Silent Hill, like the idea of what the town does.
01:11:27
Phantom Libtard
That's what separates it from that's what separates it from other horror games.
01:11:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, to me, what separates it from other horror games is the way I feel when I play it.
01:11:36
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, but I mean, you could you could also like atmosphere, I think is yeah, it's important, but like it's not that this that the differentiating quality of of Silent Hill.
01:11:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, I totally disagree. I totally disagree with you.
01:11:47
Phantom Libtard
Because you you get the you get the same you get the same you get the same feelings when you play a game like Resident Evil 2, you know, it's the atmosphere.
01:11:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
Not to that degree. No, you don't.
01:11:56
Phantom Libtard
But the but the thing is is a Resident Evil 2 story isn't is not nearly as as good as Silent Hill man you're cra Dude I wish Tim was not here right now so we could beat the fucking living shit out of you for saying shit like this right now I'm not I'm not even kidding, dude.
01:11:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
No. No, um absolutely not. Absolutely not. No, it's the story and the dialogue interactions that you have in Silent Hill 2, frankly, are kind of silly with some of these NPCs.
01:12:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, listen, go back here.
01:12:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
look Look at that, let no, no, no.
01:12:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
Read the dialogue back, read it to you. It reads like some surrealist nonsense. It really does. It's the way it makes you feel when you hear it and when you play it.
01:12:29
Phantom Libtard
I don't know, man.
01:12:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's what it is. That's that that's that game's juice.
01:12:34
slimeballsteve
i think I think this is the thing, I think like you're both like looking at like the delicious flavor of Silent Hill 2.
01:12:38
Phantom Libtard
The difference is Kristina plays Silent Hill 2. It's clear he didn't play um just just i'll just ki it.
01:12:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, okay.
01:12:44
Phantom Libtard
kidding. But still, like i I agree with you, yeah, like to a point.
01:12:49
Phantom Libtard
But like what really struck what strip but struck what that story is one of the most important parts of the Silent Hill 2.
01:12:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
I disagree with you.
01:12:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, no, no, no, no, no. yeah Yeah, it's not the most important. It isn't.
01:12:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's the atmosphere that's the most important.
01:13:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's what I keep saying.
01:13:05
Phantom Libtard
I mean, agree to disagree, I guess, but like that, but in my end, like that was something to is probably one of the first games where the ah story, the story really stuck with me and and the game.
01:13:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
Totally, totally.
01:13:15
slimeballsteve
But it's like it's both guys like it's both like like you need both of those elements in Silent Hill to to make it Silent Hill like.
01:13:23
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, but I mean, like if the game wasn't foggy, it wouldn't have been a ah bad game still.
01:13:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
that's now That's not at all what I'm talking about.
01:13:30
slimeballsteve
No but like like.
01:13:31
Phantom Libtard
Just said, yeah.
01:13:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
You never played the game, if that's what you think.
01:13:34
slimeballsteve
it it's it's it's a it's a it's a It's a good game because it has both those things.
01:13:34
Phantom Libtard
All right. Okay.
01:13:38
slimeballsteve
it is It is that story. If you put that story in a different game with like you know ah some of those characters, but like you know the graphics were you know just different, it would you know it probably wouldn't give you the same ah takes or feels.
01:13:53
slimeballsteve
But also, if you didn't have those aesthetics, like if if those aesthetics were in a different game that were worse, that was Silent Hill 4.
01:13:57
Phantom Libtard
yeah but the that's yeah what and but what i'm Yeah, and what I'm trying to say is the aesthetic is is part of the baseline. It's part of the norm for that game already in Silent Hill 2 after playing Silent Hill 1.
01:14:09
Phantom Libtard
It's literally, it's just.
01:14:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
i don't think i don't think it was I don't think it was perfected until Silent Hill 2. And that's really what matters.
01:14:16
Phantom Libtard
OK, that's fair.
01:14:16
slimeballsteve
No, you're right. You're right.
01:14:18
Phantom Libtard
That's fair.
01:14:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's what matters. That's what really what what I'm trying to get across because I have been chasing, I'm not saying it's not important, I'm just saying it's not the most important thing to me.
01:14:23
Phantom Libtard
But to say to say that the story, this this
01:14:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
The most important thing to me is definitely the atmosphere because I've been trying and chasing that feeling in other games and not getting it.
01:14:37
slimeballsteve
Yeah, I get that.
01:14:38
Phantom Libtard
I'll give you a game to play.
01:14:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
Not getting it.
01:14:39
Phantom Libtard
Fatal Frame 3. Play that game, Chris.
01:14:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
but um well
01:14:42
Phantom Libtard
you get the same You'll get the same juice at Fatal Frame 3.
01:14:46
slimeballsteve
You need a camera.
01:14:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's what it's all about Yes,
01:14:47
slimeballsteve
You need a camera. you are it's the It's the reason why when people go outside, they say, oh, it looks like Silent Hill out here, even if they didn't play the Silent Hill games. Yeah.
01:14:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
and it's too I think that hammered that home Was
01:15:01
slimeballsteve
But what I'm trying to say is I'm trying to go outside and say, oh, it feels like Castlevania out here.
01:15:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
that mean like it's raining blood
01:15:07
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, I mean, i mean just yeah, that's the thing.
01:15:08
slimeballsteve
isn't 100-year-old vampire.
01:15:10
Devon Kopete
and you tonight Yeah, there's a castle in the in the distance.
01:15:14
slimeballsteve
Ah, shit. The Drax back. um But yeah, I it's interesting because it's like I keep seeing Konami teasing their beloved franchises and I think they're trying to like see what will stick.
01:15:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
So what they wait what they can sell.
01:15:33
slimeballsteve
Yeah, like like they kind of just like flirt, but they don't make new games or don't make good
01:15:42
slimeballsteve
New games, I should say they make like awesome like collections and like they keep doing like DLC for other things like ah they just added the Castlevania chapter to DVD and that is awesome.
01:15:56
slimeballsteve
It is so wild running around as alu card while Dracula turns into a wolf and chases you.
01:16:01
Devon Kopete
Why'd you say it like that?
01:16:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
Wait, wait, wait. They added Alucard? I only saw Simon, or Trevor.
01:16:05
slimeballsteve
Well, it's Trevor, but if if you buy, they have cosmetics and the cosmetics are Simon, Leon Belmont, and Alucard right now. But in the future, Soma's coming.
01:16:17
slimeballsteve
um ah ah What's the character from Order? What's her name?
01:16:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
Order? Oh, order vote. Whoa.
01:16:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't know. Something.
01:16:27
Phantom Libtard
Wait, what what what are you talking about?
01:16:27
slimeballsteve
They're just kind of going nuts. The Dead by Daylight Castlevania chapter they just added.
01:16:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
The character, the main character from Order of Ecclesias.
01:16:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
What's her name? Is it Rose?
01:16:38
slimeballsteve
I forget, but they're they're adding like all this love for the Castlevania franchise and it's making me go like, damn, you know?
01:16:44
Devon Kopete
But there's no killer, right? It's just you're also.
01:16:45
slimeballsteve
No, it's Dracula. Dracula is the new killer.
01:16:48
slimeballsteve
And he he runs around, he talks trash.
01:16:51
Devon Kopete
As you go, what is a man and then put you on a hook?
01:16:54
slimeballsteve
He does. hey
01:16:55
Devon Kopete
Alright, so I need to know.
01:16:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
Does he really say what is man?
01:16:58
slimeballsteve
His mori is he slits your throat with his nails, pulls out a goblet, fills it with blood, takes a drink, and then throws the glass aside, because he's disgusted by your gross, human dirt blood.
01:17:12
Devon Kopete
I I wish it was the Dracula dead loving it in my daylight. That would have been bye.
01:17:17
slimeballsteve
you know You know, Leslie Nielsen.
01:17:21
Devon Kopete
I Love being Dracula
01:17:23
slimeballsteve
Let's have some fun with this. Um, but I, I just, it made me one. It's exciting having a 3d model for Alucard. Cause he is hecking gorgeous.
01:17:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
They made Trevor look hot.
01:17:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
He's not usually, I don't view him as that hot.
01:17:41
slimeballsteve
You can kind of tell.
01:17:43
Devon Kopete
No, the anime is a babe, dude.
01:17:44
slimeballsteve
Oh, and the anime, he is a babe, but they, they unfortunately don't have the Netflix license.
01:17:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
He looks kind of dirty.
01:17:46
Phantom Libtard
I don't... yeah... yeah
01:17:48
slimeballsteve
So it's like, they had to do like, kind of like their own takes on it.
01:17:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
He looks clean and in in the Dead by Daylight skin.
01:17:52
Devon Kopete
I don't see him.
01:17:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
You look like he had a shower.
01:17:55
Devon Kopete
I don't know what he looks like yet.
01:17:57
slimeballsteve
He's got like an eye cut. He's got the eye cut, but they definitely had to like do their own kind of unique take. So that way it wasn't like the Netflix anime like coming across them.
01:18:07
Devon Kopete
dead by daylight. gta five Trevor. All right. He looks like he looks like Mac Mercer.
01:18:17
Devon Kopete
That's what he looks like.
01:18:18
slimeballsteve
It's fun, I I've been enjoying it and it makes me remember that like Castlevania was such a pivotal part of like all of our lives. for like so long. And it makes me miss it, man.
01:18:29
slimeballsteve
It makes me miss like that damn, just like adventuring into the castle and doing stuff.
01:18:33
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, but like how do you make how do you make a Castlevania game now though in 2024 like what?
01:18:37
slimeballsteve
Dude, souls, man. Just make it a souls game.
01:18:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
they did it yeah they made it elderly
01:18:40
Devon Kopete
you know what
01:18:41
slimeballsteve
Dude, if they, if they had the balls, just like, dude, you from software Konami team up, make Castlevania do it.
01:18:47
Phantom Libtard
I feel like if if the Souls games were like if if they if they were to make that comparison, I would I would argue and be like, well, Castlevania Castlevania Souls game would actually have good platforming mechanics because the Souls Souls games do not
01:19:03
Phantom Libtard
have a good platform mechanics at all.
01:19:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
They did it. Yeah, they made it elderly. Castlevania 64 is pretty bad in that regard.
01:19:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
3D does not do well for Castlevania.
01:19:13
Devon Kopete
Well, he turned into a bat in this.
01:19:15
slimeballsteve
Yeah, he turns into a bat, he turns into a wolf and he's and his vampire form, he throws hellfire.
01:19:16
Phantom Libtard
That's bad ass.
01:19:18
Devon Kopete

01:19:29
slimeballsteve

01:19:33
Devon Kopete
OK, I was going to say that'd be bullshit.
01:19:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
Does he turn to mist?
01:19:36
slimeballsteve
He does turn into mist. When he goes over vaults, he turns into mist form.
01:19:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
Shit. Damn girl.
01:19:39
Devon Kopete
Oh, yeah, watch it more right now.

MERLINCHESTNUT
Damn girl.
01:19:54
Devon Kopete
Yeah, does he? Is he like going to be? I'd imagine he's going to be in the game like dead by daylight.
01:20:00
slimeballsteve
i i I think Trapper has a Frank Stone, like cosmetic, but I don't know.
01:20:01
Devon Kopete
It's weird that they didn't announce anything like that. I don't know if I missed it. That's stupid. Why not just make him the Frank Stone character?
01:20:11
slimeballsteve
Cause I don't know who the hell Frank Stone is yet.
01:20:13
Devon Kopete
He's Frank Stone! It's in your favorite killer, Steve, in this game?
01:20:16
slimeballsteve
So I only know from Flintstone, Fred Flintstone. Yeah, but David do who's my favorite killer.
01:20:23
Devon Kopete
Yeah, who's your favorite killing dev idea?
01:20:25
slimeballsteve
Uh, I don't know. Trickster, maybe a Wesker.
01:20:29
Devon Kopete
I was gonna say, I was gonna say, was it not a a non-IP character? Could be an original.
01:20:33
slimeballsteve
I'm trying to, I'm trying to be there, but you know, it's, it's weird.
01:20:37
slimeballsteve
It's weird when it's a lobby with like Leon. James from Silent Hill and now Alucard and they're all running around.
01:20:46
Devon Kopete
It's the new metaverse, dude. It's the metaverse.
01:20:48
slimeballsteve
Dude, dude, it's, I'm playing space jam three dude, Lara Croft's running around in there now.
01:20:49
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, it's the it's the multiverse Yeah fucking algae rhythm
01:20:49
Devon Kopete
This is Fortnite for Murderers, dude. Yeah, this is all this is.
01:20:52
MERLINCHESTNUT
for night for murder.
01:20:55
slimeballsteve
Alan wakes up showing up that
01:20:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think when they, if they start adding real life serial killers, that'd be like, oh fuck, they've, so this is over now.
01:21:03
slimeballsteve
they've crossed the line.
01:21:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
When they add like John Wayne Gacy, that's when you're like, okay, all right, you've gone too far.
01:21:09
Devon Kopete
Yeah. They already got a clown killer. oh
01:21:13
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, we got to read the real one.
01:21:16
Devon Kopete
But I mean you don't really ever play killers these yeah, I Was gonna say every highlight I've seen there's no killers Yeah, it's true
01:21:19
slimeballsteve
ah You know, I dabble, I dabble sometimes. If I'm going to dabble with anybody, it's Dracula.
01:21:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
that's Imagine Ted Bundy killer who walks around with a big cast on his arm.
01:21:29
Phantom Libtard
Oh no, Castlevania now is just, um, it's just, uh, whatchamacallit.
01:21:34
slimeballsteve
Plinko machines.
01:21:35
Phantom Libtard
Fuck it. No, it's fucking, um, it's, uh, fuck, it's, uh, vampire survivors.
01:21:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, yeah, that's the reality.
01:21:42
Phantom Libtard
That's Castlevania in 2024.
01:21:42
slimeballsteve
Oh you're right, you're right.
01:21:44
Devon Kopete
I just need to know, I just need to know if it's more vibes or story that makes Castlevania Castlevania.
01:21:45
Phantom Libtard
That's what Castlevania is.
01:21:45
slimeballsteve
That's Castlevania for Zoomers.
01:21:49
Phantom Libtard
I guess for Castlevania, yeah, yeah, that's, yeah, that's vibes.
01:21:51
slimeballsteve
Castlevania is vibes.
01:21:57
slimeballsteve
The story is Drax back, go nuts.
01:21:57
Phantom Libtard
and gameplay.
01:22:01
slimeballsteve
Oh also, Alucard had little baby toys made by his father.
01:22:05
Devon Kopete
Remember when I made these stories?
01:22:06
Phantom Libtard
like What would you say what would you say is man gear is Metal Gear?
01:22:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't wanna cry.
01:22:09
Phantom Libtard
Is Metal Gear vibes or story?
01:22:12
Devon Kopete
Oh, man. I'd say it's story.
01:22:15
slimeballsteve
It's, yeah, it's story.
01:22:16
Devon Kopete
Because it's a 900% story.
01:22:16
slimeballsteve
It's just big political. Yeah. It's cut scenes.
01:22:21
Devon Kopete
Kingdom Hearts? I wish it was vibes, but it's they want it to be story.
01:22:25
slimeballsteve
You know what?
01:22:25
Phantom Libtard
It should be vibes.
01:22:25
slimeballsteve
This is, this is an interesting thing.
01:22:26
Phantom Libtard
It should be vibes just by definition.
01:22:28
slimeballsteve
Cause like, I think, I think Silent Hill two is one of those ones where it's like both, but I think this is interesting to go through game series and be like, what's vibes, what's story like Mario is vibes, Mario's gameplay.
01:22:28
Phantom Libtard
That should be vibes.
01:22:40
slimeballsteve
Like that's.
01:22:42
Devon Kopete
Don't you dare say story.
01:22:42
Phantom Libtard
You're right, you're right.
01:22:44
slimeballsteve
Although Odyssey's story is pretty fun.
01:22:45
slimeballsteve
That's a good story.
01:22:47
slimeballsteve
Come on, man. Come on, man.
01:22:49
Devon Kopete
There is there's no story in Mario games ever.
01:22:53
Phantom Libtard
There is a little bit.
01:22:53
Devon Kopete
It's like, yeah, it's Drax back.
01:22:56
slimeballsteve
Mario goes on vacation and has to go to jail.
01:22:57
Phantom Libtard
There is a story It's like somebody arguing that this story and Resident Evil and there really isn't Halo story.
01:22:57
Devon Kopete
It's Bowser's back. Like there's nothing you would ever really.
01:23:03
slimeballsteve
All right, Halo.
01:23:04
Devon Kopete
Yeah. Story.
01:23:07
Phantom Libtard
Yeah. Halo is all story I mean, I don't want to say that but it's like, you know, that's it's or was its strength It was its strength in one game
01:23:13
Devon Kopete
it's just It's just funny how like when the, yeah, it's just funny when the developers just kind of, I don't want to say get it wrong, but it's like like with Kingdom Hearts, right?
01:23:24
Devon Kopete
Like I was kind of making a joke, but it's like, it should be vibes, but they really want it to do be story. And it's like, nah, man, like the cool part is just like hanging out in Disney worlds and like Final Fantasy stuff and hitting shit with my key blade.
01:23:40
Devon Kopete
And they're like, no, you need to know about The endless and the heartless and the nobodies.
01:23:44
slimeballsteve
Dude, you cried. You cried when goofy died, man. Come on.
01:23:48
Devon Kopete
We all did. We all shed a tear that day.
01:23:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
Goofy diced?
01:23:49
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, Kingdom Hearts is kingdom heart is story though, right?
01:23:50
slimeballsteve
te I'm sorry. Spoilers.
01:23:52
Phantom Libtard
And they really try to make the writing like...
01:23:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
What the thief?
01:23:54
Devon Kopete
Well, that's that's my point. It's like, well, that's my point you is like they want it to be the story. So they want it to be the most important factor, like to the point where they just overdid it. And it's like, no, dude, like the coolest part of Kingdom Hearts is not the story. And it's successful in spite of its story, you know, because it's in fucking it's embarrassing to try to explain to somebody what Kingdom Hearts even is about because no one really knows at this point.
01:24:20
Devon Kopete
Or it's like, do you have 20 minutes? And that's like the really condensed version of Kingdom Hearts. But, you know, it's it's fucking dope as shit.
01:24:31
Devon Kopete
Like i I almost fired up Kingdom Hearts 3 when we were talking about it on the Discord the other day. I was like, am I firing this bad boy up?
01:24:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Why that one?
01:24:43
Devon Kopete
um Because that's the one I haven't beaten like four times already.
01:24:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
Jesus, really?
01:24:47
Devon Kopete
Like I only beat Kingdom Hearts 3 once. And I've embarrassingly bought the DLC and never played it.
01:24:51
slimeballsteve
That was like when it came out to write.
01:24:55
Devon Kopete
And I heard it's quite difficult. And at that point I'm like, this would, I'd be better suited for a full replay. than
01:25:02
slimeballsteve
That is too intimidating of a series at this point, I think I think that's like one of those series that like you have to like softly remake somehow.
01:25:12
Devon Kopete
yeah You know, what it's, if you could get away with one and two and then like a good YouTube break down and then play three.
01:25:23
slimeballsteve
Get a body vids for Kingdom Hearts.
01:25:23
Devon Kopete
You can be like. Yeah, like there's definitely I like it's it's impossible to say you don't need a YouTube video to explain some of this, especially if you want to skip over like some of the non important stuff.
01:25:37
Devon Kopete
But it's just like, dude, fucking the card game one is way too important to the plot to just skip, unfortunately.
01:25:46
slimeballsteve
That's crazy to me that they were making like Game Boy Advance games and yeah.
01:25:50
Devon Kopete
a web browser game and shit that's like, has real lore in it. Yeah.
01:25:54
slimeballsteve
there's There's an orchestra live event that has important critical lore to the Kingdom Hearts series, and they expected you to watch that.
01:26:02
Devon Kopete
Yeah. And you're like, no, I'm just not, I'm not going to do it. I'm sorry. It's not going to happen. But, you know,
01:26:13
Devon Kopete
What are you going to do? I think, uh, 99% of, uh, Sony games, uh, like Sony first party games or story over vibes, you know, Concord, notwithstanding.
01:26:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, I'd say that's fair. I think God of War is. God of War, God of War Ragnarok, there's story.
01:26:31
Devon Kopete
Yeah. I mean, got to work out away with changing its whole vibe.
01:26:32
slimeballsteve
Mm hmm. Yeah.
01:26:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
That was a good move.
01:26:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
That was a great fucking move.
01:26:39
Devon Kopete
I mean, at that point, because it's like we they went as far as they could with that old gameplay mechanic.
01:26:43
Phantom Libtard
ah so he'll come out october
01:26:45
slimeballsteve
October 8th.
01:26:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
That is not the spookiest name here.
01:26:47
Devon Kopete
Spookiest day of the year, but baby.
01:26:48
Phantom Libtard
There's nothing else coming out around then oh
01:26:49
slimeballsteve
Ooh, until dawn ah remaster.
01:26:53
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, that's actually interesting that remaster, I mean I'm not gonna get it but it's interesting
01:26:57
Devon Kopete
and Until dawn's good time, man.
01:27:00
MERLINCHESTNUT
I beat until dawn, I never played the quarry though.
01:27:03
Devon Kopete
Dude, I have the quarry.
01:27:03
slimeballsteve
I have the quarry.
01:27:04
Devon Kopete
And I just, you know what? I think that's what I'm going to fuck with ah until Space Marine 2.
01:27:10
slimeballsteve
That's fair.
01:27:10
Devon Kopete
Because I feel like I can get through that in a fairly quick, you know?
01:27:14
slimeballsteve
So have you have you a movie watch? I think I think you got yourself a ah fun thing that you could you could just pop on and.
01:27:18
Devon Kopete
Oh, man. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Your funds are tight, man, but I really want to play Astrobot.
01:27:25
slimeballsteve
Astro Bot looks fun.
01:27:26
Devon Kopete
I really want to play Astrobot.
01:27:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
That came out?
01:27:28
Devon Kopete
September? No, it's coming out like Friday, I think.
01:27:32
Devon Kopete
Dude, September is like sneakily has some bangers. It is Frank Stone, which we kind of joke about. But like, I do want to play that game.
01:27:40
Devon Kopete
Astrobot Space Marine 2.
01:27:44
Devon Kopete
Plucky Squire, which I think looks awesome.
01:27:46
slimeballsteve
That game is if that's exciting that that's coming out.
01:27:48
Devon Kopete
Yeah. Deadmatt dead rising remasters coming out.
01:27:53
slimeballsteve
There's a game called Bakkaru, which was like it came out in Japan and it ended up being.
01:27:56
Phantom Libtard
Mmm. What's that?
01:27:57
Devon Kopete
The drum game.
01:27:59
slimeballsteve
ah It's like you're like a Japanese drummer, but it looks like this like
01:28:03
Devon Kopete
Yeah, I know.
01:28:05
slimeballsteve
It released in Japan last year and people say it's like an absolute banger.
01:28:09
slimeballsteve
So I'm kind of interested in seeing how it.
01:28:10
Devon Kopete
Legend is that Legend of Zelda game. Are you playing Zelda?

01:44:13
MERLINCHESTNUT
you look at that guy
01:44:14
Devon Kopete
Yeah, actually, I'm not going to lie, I was a little tickled to see that there are a few reasons, one, because it looks authentic and, you know, and two, I just kind of and I know he's going to get touched up, of course, but I just still love that they still went through the effort of making.
01:44:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
me too man
01:44:18
slimeballsteve
I love it.
01:44:31
Devon Kopete
um The man in the giant suit, which is just.
01:44:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
As long as it's a full CGI is no problem.
01:44:36
slimeballsteve
He looks like he's baked.
01:44:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's a good thing.
01:44:38
slimeballsteve
Like he's like a bunch of bread and his eyebrows are croissants.
01:44:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
It looks like there's different shading on the orange to like part of it's lighter in certain spots, which is interesting.
01:44:44
Devon Kopete
Like somehow. Yeah, yeah. Like somehow they got the face right, which is like I didn't think how important that would be, but I was like.
01:44:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, they really nailed that.
01:44:51
slimeballsteve
That looks ah so Jack Kirby.
01:44:55
Devon Kopete
Because like, you know, I it's not good, right? But like I've always much prefer the the other Fantastic Four movie thing just because he's live action and the fact that it's fucking Michael Chiklis in a big suit, which has the sun.
01:45:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, Michael Chiklis?
01:45:12
Phantom Libtard
Wait, how are these? how's the yeah how What are the differences between them? I don't really know. They all look the same to me.
01:45:16
Devon Kopete
Like if you. Nah, dude.
01:45:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think it's the Irish, is that really?
01:45:20
slimeballsteve
It's the it's the eyebrows.
01:45:20
Phantom Libtard
Like all the things, all the things.
01:45:21
Devon Kopete
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's yeah.
01:45:21
slimeballsteve
He's got the he's got the Jack Kirby brows.
01:45:22
Phantom Libtard
Oh, is it the big eyebrows? so Oh, is it like animatronic or whatever?
01:45:26
Phantom Libtard
It's not like CGI.
01:45:26
Devon Kopete
You just I don't know, but he just like doesn't look right. He's like too smooth in the in the Michael Chiklis thing.
01:45:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
Mm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
01:45:35
Devon Kopete
You know, he doesn't have the over it like the yeah, the the caveman eyebrows just aren't there.
01:45:36
Phantom Libtard
Interesting.
01:45:45
Devon Kopete
Yeah, like, you know, I'll post it like he's just too smooth and in in that version.
01:45:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, you're right. He is... it's... it's not craggly enough. It is on, like, the chest, but not on the head.
01:45:55
Devon Kopete
Yeah, yeah, and he's just not as big, which is like fine. I get it. But it's just so much better than the. The move sucked anyway, but the the fucking fan for stick movie is just like that's a terrible, terrible across the board.
01:46:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, that movie's awful.
01:46:11
Phantom Libtard
Wasn't that yeah we had a good time. We want to see.
01:46:15
slimeballsteve
Was there any reference to that in Deadpool Wolverine?
01:46:20
Phantom Libtard
I don't think so.
01:46:21
Phantom Libtard
It's not.
01:46:21
slimeballsteve
Yeah, they didn't even want to touch
TV Series Reflections
01:46:23
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, if they didn't even want it. They didn't even want.
01:46:24
Devon Kopete
It's in it's in like the montage.
01:46:27
Phantom Libtard
They couldn't afford they couldn't afford Michael B.
01:46:27
Devon Kopete
There's behind the scene montages, but that's it.
01:46:30
Phantom Libtard
Jordan to come back. That's what it is. They could afford they could afford. ah What's his name? Fucking Captain America, Chris Evans.
01:46:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, Chris Evans.
01:46:37
Phantom Libtard
But Michael B.
01:46:38
Phantom Libtard
Jordan is just it's on another level.
01:46:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh man, he looks so stupid.
01:46:43
Phantom Libtard
Plus Michael B. Jordan probably would actually anybody they would talk to you about that did that movie probably would just say no anyway Because it's an embarrassing Fucking miles teller to just get miles teller to do something with his life There's other things that are better way more important to worry about
01:46:48
slimeballsteve
They should have just got Kate Mara's wig in the background.
01:46:51
Devon Kopete
Yeah. And like, yeah. And like, again, I'm not. Yeah, not to like beat the dead horse, but even the CG thing and in the fan force that like his head's wrong.
01:47:03
Devon Kopete
So how are they fucking up this head?
01:47:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think they try to.
01:47:07
Devon Kopete
I know, I know, I know, but it's just.
01:47:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think they're trying to.
01:47:10
Phantom Libtard
Doctor Doom is playing. Can I remind you that Doctor Doom was playing Assassin's Creed with his eye with his eyeball?
01:47:17
Phantom Libtard
at one point that movie So He's
01:47:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's like the bad guy from grandma's boy.
01:47:20
slimeballsteve
Dude, Dr. Doom knows how to whale flip, I'll tell you how.
01:47:23
Devon Kopete
Yeah, dude, he's well flippin with his eyebrows dude Google Glass was the hot best thing in the new house It was his dude Google Glass.
01:47:25
Phantom Libtard
playing he's playing with his fucking eye dude, let's play with an eye controller with the eyeball That's the game that wasn't even Google Glass.
01:47:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
Doom doesn't have time.
01:47:34
Phantom Libtard
He was wearing like a fucking click and I don't even know.
01:47:38
Devon Kopete
Yeah, I know it's
01:47:38
Phantom Libtard
and Like a universal soldier fucking eyepiece and was playing Assassin's Creed on his on his 35 inch curved monitor is fucking horrible.
01:47:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's a pretty good movie though.
01:47:51
Devon Kopete
Well, you have like 17 computer monitors, remember?
01:47:54
Phantom Libtard
Oh, my God.
01:47:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's a pretty good movie. It's pretty good.
01:47:57
Devon Kopete
And I thought, you know, Chris, fuck you.
01:47:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
for Four bags of popcorn out of five.
01:47:59
Devon Kopete
Fuck you. Yeah.
01:48:01
Phantom Libtard
Where does that where does that dr. Doom rank versus Reverse flash on terms of pettiness cuz he was that guy was pretty fucking petty, dude
01:48:06
Devon Kopete
No, he's he's he's uber petty, but I just I think we reverse flash is just untouchable. In terms of petty, this dude fucking hates everybody.
01:48:19
Devon Kopete
Oh, man. i Well, we got a yeah a sal lot ah dead boy detectives canceled.
01:48:26
Phantom Libtard
I canceled I could have I could have told you that was gonna happen just cuz it's netflix
01:48:30
Phantom Libtard
I mean the the show is all right, but like it's just you know Netflix doesn't She like she really liked that boy detectives honestly, she's actually pretty upset I was like, you know She's the one who told me actually We saw the first three episodes before but then we ended up watching the whole first season when it came out We were we were into it um But fucking
01:48:33
Devon Kopete
Sam just said I Sam gave them the thumbs down and they canceled it. We're going to. I was going to say, did you break the news to her?
01:48:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh you guys you got you got you got the preview for Netflix, right?
01:48:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
So you saw that before everybody else
01:49:01
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, I don't know. It's just, you know, it's Netflix. So if it's not making a billion dollars in a week, then they're going to cancel it.
01:49:05
Devon Kopete
Yeah, if it's not getting three trillion Lee.
01:49:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
actually the the way they're looking at it now it's about completion so they look at if if a show has been completed like the completion rate of i think stranger things season four was eighty seven point five percent that means people got to at least eighty seven point five percent of it and dead boy detective was at like fifty to two percent but i think
01:49:08
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, if it's not, yeah, if not stranger things.
01:49:27
Phantom Libtard
Oh, they see if people finished it or not.
01:49:34
Devon Kopete
whoa that's higher than I thought I'd imagine
01:49:35
slimeballsteve
Hmm. Yeah, that's not. but
01:49:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
The cutoff is like, I would imagine somewhere in like the seventies, you know, where they're like, okay, then I saw it on the, it was like a Reddit post where they were breaking down like how they, how they look at success of TV shows.
01:49:42
slimeballsteve
I wonder if we could look that up.
01:49:53
Devon Kopete
yeah you know like how come there's not has i mean i ah lawsuits is why but like yeah you you You wonder why there hasn't been someone who's like, I worked in the algorithm department of Netflix.
01:50:04
Devon Kopete
This is what I, this is how they track this stuff.
01:50:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, a lot of people, a lot of like crew people are upset with that because they don't know how a show is doing. Like they can't plan their jobs properly because they don't and ever know if a show is going to get canceled or not.
01:50:15
Devon Kopete
Yeah, it's tough.
01:50:20
Phantom Libtard
So did did they do this? Did they do the same thing, I guess. With like old TV broadcast TV shows that were there, like, I guess they just go by drops week by week or or whatever.
01:50:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
You know, I think
01:50:32
slimeballsteve
They went with like the Nielsen's, right?
01:50:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
There was the Nielsen's, but I think completion was part two. Like if somebody finished a show or if a group of people finished a show.
01:50:39
Devon Kopete
Like, are you talking about like how Netflix would that would track how like friends is doing? Or are you just talking about like?
01:50:45
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, because it's just there like his.
01:50:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, classic television on streaming services.
01:50:48
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, because like historically historically the first seasons of of tv shows just aren't as good like they never really You never break.
01:50:57
Phantom Libtard
They never really break their stride until Until a couple seasons later Like not every show is breaking bad, you know that every show They want that now yeah, they want yeah, they they see that and they that's what they want Because like even like
01:50:59
Devon Kopete
It's just a lot easier to not foot the bill.
01:51:00
slimeballsteve
I imagine with like older shows that they're not footing the bill for it, it's probably like clicks.
01:51:07
slimeballsteve
Like interest.
01:51:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hey man, i I think that's what people want, or that's what studio execs want.
01:51:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
They don't have the patience to wait a season.
01:51:18
Phantom Libtard
Even Mad Men's first season wasn't good.
01:51:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's a little weak, it's a little weak.
01:51:21
Devon Kopete
No, it stinks.
01:51:22
Devon Kopete
I, that's when I fell off.
01:51:23
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, it was it wasn't good.
01:51:24
Devon Kopete
Literally. That's when I stopped wise. I can't, I don't like this.
01:51:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, patience for like waiting for a show to get its foothold, it's it's gone, it's all but gone nowadays.
01:51:28
Phantom Libtard
it's Yeah, it's hard. It's hard.
01:51:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
And it's a shame because I feel like, yeah, there's so many shows that we love that have just had shitty first season.
01:51:41
Phantom Libtard
What's the clock? Oh, the best example is is the office, the US office.
01:51:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
Seinfeld. It's Office Seinfeld.
01:51:46
Phantom Libtard
The first season of the Yeah, Seinfeld.
01:51:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
That sucks. That is not good.
01:51:51
Phantom Libtard
but I mean, Buffy is always a great example of of a really weak first season.
01:51:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
And that was a mid-season filler, right, Buffy?
01:51:57
Phantom Libtard
And then.
01:52:00
slimeballsteve
Parks and Rec.
01:52:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
Parks and Rec.
01:52:02
Phantom Libtard
Although the pilot, the pilot is good, I would say, the Buffy pilot is good.
01:52:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
There was a handful of good episodes in the first season, but I actually kind of liked the end of it, too, the fight at the end.
01:52:10
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, the candy bar one.
01:52:13
Devon Kopete
I love the candy bar episode.
01:52:14
Phantom Libtard
Oh, yeah, yeah, the ah the prom or not the prom, it was it the prom.
01:52:16
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that's awesome.
01:52:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
The Master Fight, it's great. It's a little, like, rushed, but it's, you know, what, six episodes or eight episodes?
01:52:24
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, but like the ah what was it with the fucking Willow falling in love with the fucking computer demon.
01:52:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
Okay, that's...
01:52:31
Phantom Libtard
That episode was.
01:52:32
slimeballsteve
I forgot about that.
01:52:33
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, there's like there's some there's some God awful episodes of that season.
01:52:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, debin Devin brought up the one where they turned into cheetahs or animals.
01:52:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Wasn't that the first one?
01:52:42
Phantom Libtard

MERLINCHESTNUT
Like they turned into cheetahs.
01:52:56
Phantom Libtard

MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah. Right.
01:53:05
Devon Kopete

Phantom Libtard

01:53:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
The cool thing is they always have them fall in love with Xander like the weird insect people You know

01:55:24
Devon Kopete
Yeah, first he's doctor who sucks from all the shit.
01:55:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
from that From a show that always straddles the line of going far so far down a goofy hole
01:55:27
Devon Kopete
No one likes it.
01:55:28
Phantom Libtard
yeah from 1956.
01:55:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
that show, it was so good at just straddling that line, like not falling in the goofball zone.
01:55:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
I mean, it did occasionally, obviously, but it was a tightrope walk, you know? At least when I remember it.
01:55:46
Devon Kopete
Yeah, and unfortunate it was just, yeah, you know.
01:55:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's usually if the villain was effective and scary.
01:55:52
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, Doctor Who, man, I used to love that show, but like. It's like you either get fucking Kino you either get fucking girl in the fireplace or you get or you get dogs and like those that was the same season I think that was dogs in Manhattan and girl in the fireplace I think we're in the same season let me see that season yeah blink is season four or season three let me say talk to you
01:56:00
Devon Kopete
Or it's like embarrassing.
01:56:04
slimeballsteve

Yep. And blink I think is that season two, right?
01:56:15
MERLINCHESTNUT

01:59:10
MERLINCHESTNUT

01:59:19
Phantom Libtard
Oh yeah, and he fucking screams at them?
01:59:20
MERLINCHESTNUT

01:59:23
Phantom Libtard
He's like, nobody human has anything to say today or whatever. He's like freaking out.

02:00:08
Phantom Libtard
Yeah. What about is Vincent Van Gogh?
02:00:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
What about the episode where he needs hell or he needs Satan?
02:00:13
Devon Kopete
I yeah, that one's I know man goes number 10, I think.
02:00:15
Phantom Libtard

MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, what are Mars rules?

02:01:20
Devon Kopete
which was, uh, angels in Manhattan, I think.
02:01:24
slimeballsteve

Ruined in Doctor Who.
02:01:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, the weeping angels one with the Statue of Liberty.
02:01:31
Devon Kopete
That was the last one. I was like, I don't think I need to keep up with this.

Devon Kopete
And I don't think that's a bad episode.
02:01:37
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, they're doing that thing. Yeah, they're doing. Yeah, but they do that thing where they're like, you know, they see something within work.
02:01:41
Devon Kopete
They took an awesome concept. Yeah. Just beat it into the dirt.
02:01:44
Phantom Libtard
Yeah. And they just like blew it up.
02:01:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
What happens, man?
02:01:46
Devon Kopete

02:01:49
Devon Kopete

Oh, they know they're doing that shit again.
02:03:44
Devon Kopete
Yeah, this is every Doctor Who episode.
02:03:46
Phantom Libtard
That's the this is the that's the gatekeeping. The gatekeeping doctor who purists lists.
02:03:50
Devon Kopete
Human nature, family of blood.
02:03:54
Phantom Libtard
The best is the very first episode that you can't even watch anymore from 1955.
02:03:57

MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, I've seen him, but yeah.
02:04:08
Phantom Libtard

02:04:12
Devon Kopete
That's it. Yeah. The case of Androzani is number two.
02:04:12
Phantom Libtard
Get the fuck out of here.

Devon Kopete
Peter Davison is there the doctor.

02:04:22
Phantom Libtard
and dad That's that's gatekeepers fuck What David Bowie Oh
02:04:24
Devon Kopete
ah David Bowie was offered the role of the mass villain. Sheriff Jack drug trafficker. He's offered. I don't think he.
02:04:33
slimeballsteve
Yeah. Why are we getting information about like things that didn't happen in this?
02:04:36
Devon Kopete
I don't know.
02:04:37
Devon Kopete
It's number two, dude.
02:04:38
slimeballsteve
My favorite part was the fact that David
Cyberpunk DLC Enthusiasm & Sign Off
02:04:40
slimeballsteve
Bowie was offered the role, but turned it down.
02:04:42
Devon Kopete
Yeah. ah Violent and riveting and a hell of a send off for the fifth doctor. Actor Davidson said if all the stories are going to be this good, he would have stayed a series of two longer. That's cute. Tom Baker, number three, Genesis of the Daleks. Fuck it.
02:04:59
slimeballsteve

02:05:32
slimeballsteve
Dude, you gotta tell us, you gotta tell us. What's the better DLC after you finish it?
02:05:37
Devon Kopete
Dude, I'm excited. I'm excited to piss this off.

MERLINCHESTNUT
Just so you know, just so you know, I will disown you as my friend.
02:05:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
So you got that, there's that.
02:05:50
MERLINCHESTNUT

02:05:50
Phantom Libtard
There are trees this best But
02:05:51

02:06:02
Phantom Libtard

02:06:02
slimeballsteve
This is this is the choice.
02:06:09
Devon Kopete
Yeah, listen, I need to know i need to know what's more important.
02:06:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
Make the choice, make the choice.
02:06:13
Devon Kopete
Stories are vibes in Cyberpunk.
02:06:16
slimeballsteve
I'm the ah the DLC green middle choice that they give you six months later.
02:06:31
Phantom Libtard
Devon, they give you a new skill tree, bro. Your fucking gorilla arms can do even more shit if you want.
02:06:37
Devon Kopete
It's pretty dope.
02:06:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
They were already broken, so I can only imagine.
02:06:38
Devon Kopete
It's pretty good. Yeah, no, dude, dude, I'm you've convinced me.
02:06:43
Phantom Libtard
And there's this there's this mechanic where like an airdrop where like a ah fucking a fucking Hunger Games like and care package flies down into Dogtown from the sky and then the fucking military of
02:06:45
Devon Kopete
I will get into it this year.
02:06:58
Phantom Libtard
Basically, it's basically Philadelphia, the demilitarized zone of Philadelphia. The military people like close in on it and are fighting with the gang goons there over over it and then you could you could kill everybody there and fucking take all the loot. And it's like really good loot. It's like tier five plus plus cyberware in there and fucking money. Yeah, it's like it's really cool because like you hear a loud sound when you're just like doing stuff in the city and then you just hear a fucking you just see a fucking airdrop.
02:07:27
Phantom Libtard
fucking huge container box to drop from the sky and then people start fighting over it in the fucking dog town in Blighttown. It's Blighttown, Chris. It's actually Blighttown.
02:07:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
You get poisoned every minute you're in there right, and the last thing I'm gonna say here is Roger Ebert comm gave the crow two and a half stars That's probably pretty good.
02:07:39
Phantom Libtard
That's what it feels like.
02:07:39
Devon Kopete
It's cyber poisoning dude
02:07:43
Phantom Libtard
Oh, it's so cool. And that's not even like it's not even an important thing. That's just if you want to get a loot in there.
02:07:55
Phantom Libtard
What? So it's actually not bad.
02:07:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
I Don't know
