00:02:16
Chris
Probably not a bad idea. Yeah.
00:02:17
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, I think it's just a permanent thing now.
00:02:21
SirRonthePoor
It's not You know, really enforced by a little.
00:02:26
Chris
Yeah.
00:02:26
SirRonthePoor
And you still have a lot of your fire pits and campfires and stuff, you know.
00:02:29
Chris
oh yeah that's it what we no one should be doing that yeah yeah yeah i can't imagine trying to explain to somebody like you know well you know yeah here's your house and here's your backyard that's where you can put your burn barrel
00:02:31
SirRonthePoor
But we also don't let you burn trash and shit in our town in our county, so.
00:02:37
SirRonthePoor
No, no, they shouldn't.
00:02:52
SirRonthePoor
There's your pit that you burn your trash in.

Landscaping Choices: Mulch vs. River Rocks
00:03:25
SirRonthePoor
So,
00:03:25
Chris
Well, I mean, also, I mean, you could use it as mulch. you could
00:03:30
SirRonthePoor
so what they do for ours is they take it to a site, they make the mulch, and then you can come pick up the mulch.
00:03:35
Chris
Oh, that's nice.
00:03:36
SirRonthePoor
You don't have to do it at your yard, which kind nice.

00:03:47
Chris
No. It looks nice for like a day.
00:04:04
Chris
Yeah.

Chris
Yeah, using in it as a litter box.
00:04:38

SirRonthePoor
i'm just to get of a rock. And...
00:05:18

It's good for stopping wildfires or spreading your house.
00:05:22
Chris
Yeah, that's true. That's true.
00:05:24
SirRonthePoor
i mean, not that that's a thing I worry about too much in my neighborhood.
00:05:24
Chris
Yeah. Let's say, are you worried about wildfires?
00:05:26
SirRonthePoor
but
00:05:28
SirRonthePoor
No, no.
00:05:29
Chris
Okay. Just checking.
00:05:30
SirRonthePoor
But I am worried about the cats shitting in my front yard all
00:05:33
Chris
ah yeah Yeah, that's a big thing. Yeah.
00:05:35
SirRonthePoor
Yeah.
00:05:36
Chris
Yeah, which I don't know. the wife and I were trying to figure it out yesterday. know I have to replace them, but the little ramp that goes up to my shed, one of the boards was ripped out and flipped over.
00:05:49
SirRonthePoor
It's a ghost.
00:05:49
Chris
was like, did i did I have a honey badger try to get under the shed? i mean, what the hell? So of course I asked the kids, I'm like, did you mess with that? And they're like why the hell would we mess with that?
00:06:00
Chris
So yeah. Yeah. Now I'm looking at the dogs. I'm like, did you do this? And they're like, no, no.
00:06:07
SirRonthePoor
even have a ramp for my shit. I just lift my lawnmower up like a mane.
00:06:11
Chris
That's what I'm going to start doing.
00:06:13
SirRonthePoor
It's just just easier.
00:06:15
Chris
I need to redo my shit anyway.
00:06:18
SirRonthePoor
wow, I'm getting a new shed to have as a second shed. And my brother's like, how many sheds do you need? I'm like, well, apparently I need two. Like I'm living the high life because I got two sheds.
00:06:32
Chris
thing.
00:06:33
SirRonthePoor
I'm moving all my e-bikes and stuff out of my house.
00:06:37
Chris
that's that's a good thing
00:06:39
SirRonthePoor
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:06:43
Chris
Yeah, that's what we, uh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:06:43
SirRonthePoor
It's going cost me some money.
00:06:46
Chris
Well, we, and we just, you know, paid to have the down stores downstairs reef downstairs refloored.
00:06:51
SirRonthePoor
stores.
00:06:51
Chris
So that's yeah. Downstores. Yeah. So we have nice new, it it looks beautiful.
00:06:54
SirRonthePoor
It has your reflore go.
00:06:57
SirRonthePoor
Yeah?
00:06:58
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:06:59
SirRonthePoor
Did you get, like,
00:06:59
Chris
Especially since we had to get a new water heater also.
00:07:03
SirRonthePoor
did you get the hardwood laminate put in?
00:07:05
Chris
It's the yeah LVP or whatever. i don't know. But the thing with that is where it's, and I don't know, shorter or whatever than the hardwood was.
00:07:15
Chris
So now I have these gaps.
00:07:16
SirRonthePoor
Oh, all the baseball caps. Ugh.
00:07:19
Chris
Yeah. So I mean, they put corn around around a lot of it to close it up, which looks fine. But like where the door trim comes down, there's like gaps there. So we got to I'm probably going have to redo all the molding.
00:07:33
SirRonthePoor
It's a never-ending process of suck.
00:07:36
Chris
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah.
00:07:39
SirRonthePoor
Just for the rest of your life, your house is just going to be one more part.
00:07:40
Chris
which
00:07:43
Chris
It's just, oh, yeah, yeah, because already it was. Yeah, i like the color. But now the banister looks different. Oh, my god.
00:07:53
SirRonthePoor
Oh, God.
00:07:53
Chris
god And that you know will tie into the upstairs. it's yeah Like you said, it just it's just if you give a mouse a cookie kind of thing.
00:07:57
SirRonthePoor
Oh, boy. I know.
00:08:01
Chris
Yeah.
00:08:02
SirRonthePoor
oh that's okay because we're getting a we have a large picture window that's original to the house single pane not an energy efficient doesn't open so we're finally breaking down and getting it replaced because the poor guy comes in he's like well what
00:08:08
Chris
yeah
00:08:14
Chris
Yeah. Mm-hmm.
00:08:21
SirRonthePoor
how old is this thing? I'm like, 50 years? I don't know. It's like, it's really good shape. I'm like, yeah, but it's 50 years old.
00:08:28
Chris
Yeah.
00:08:29
SirRonthePoor
So we get to
00:08:29
Chris
Yeah. Yeah, I can taste the lead coming out of it, sir.
00:08:33
SirRonthePoor
the whole process, whole process. It takes three hours the other day. I was so, the guy's like, oh, it'll be like a 30 minute thing and we'll be done. It was three hours.
00:08:43
Chris
How the hell did it take three hours? You measure it and you're done.
00:08:46
SirRonthePoor
oh he measured it and then he had to remeasure it well then because it's an odd size it couldn't there were so every option we wanted we're like you can't do this you have to do this you can't do this one you gotta to do this ah it was like annoying so we get it all done three hours pay our money it's a lot of money a lot of money when he told me how much one window was i knew i was in trouble you
00:09:04
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:09:11
SirRonthePoor
you will never guess what one window costs from this company which is a higher end window company one no no no thirty three hundred dollars a window thirty three hundred don't think so and he was like yeah we we should probably look at other windows i said
00:09:18
Chris
one window? Yeah, probably $2,000.
00:09:24
Chris
Jesus. Oh my god.
00:09:30
Chris
What?
00:09:33
Chris
Are they voice activated?
00:09:38
Chris
Yeah.
00:09:42
SirRonthePoor
Nah, I think we're going to stick with the one. Because that one's going to cost me three windows worth.
00:09:49
Chris
yeah yeah
00:09:49
SirRonthePoor
So anyways, we finish all of this. Come up with the plan. My wife wakes up the next morning. I'm just not sure about that. Like, are you kidding me?
00:10:01
Chris
oh my god did you punch her immediately yeah oh gosh yeah yeah
00:10:01
SirRonthePoor
Because we have... It's like we have 72 hours to cancel it. So if you want to cancel it, you have to make a decision now.
00:10:13
SirRonthePoor
And picture window, to replace our... So we're replacing it with three double-hung windows.
00:10:19
Chris
yeah
00:10:20
SirRonthePoor
But to replace it with a picture window, which has less moving parts, would cost more money.
00:10:26
Chris
why that doesn't make any sense yeah yeah yeah you could have sashes and pulleys and don't know things latches and what the hell
00:10:26
SirRonthePoor
i don't Explain that to me. I don't understand. Yeah. He's like, what's more glass? I'm like, yeah, but the glass is the cheap part. It's all the other crap that you got to do.
00:10:41
SirRonthePoor
Right. And things.
00:10:49
Chris
Hmm.
00:10:50
SirRonthePoor
Yeah.
00:10:50
Chris
What's it? Yeah, it's.
00:10:51
SirRonthePoor
My wife got done and I'm like, think about this way. We'll be able to clean the damn thing. Because right now, you can't clean it. You have from the outside.
00:10:56
Chris
Hmm. Hmm.
00:10:59
SirRonthePoor
Yeah.
00:10:59
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. My wife is like, oh, yeah. Do you like the color in this? I'm like, yeah, it's great. i yeah I don't know. It's I just it's floor. That's all I care about.
00:11:10
Chris
Yeah.
00:11:10
SirRonthePoor
Right. And know we have to have our floor done, and it is the project I least ever want to think about.
00:11:16
Chris
Hmm. Yeah.
00:11:18
SirRonthePoor
Because I have hardwood all through my stairs.
00:11:20
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:11:22
SirRonthePoor
And if you're going to do it, you have to do it all.
00:11:24
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:11:24
SirRonthePoor
Because you'll have weird lines otherwise.
00:11:24
Chris
Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, I can tell you, Matt, the carpet guy, stands behind his work. So yeah, he does.
00:11:32
SirRonthePoor

00:13:32
Chris
Yeah.
00:13:32
SirRonthePoor

00:13:33
Chris
Sure, yeah, let's go to topic one.
00:13:35
SirRonthePoor
boy, we lost everything. Boy, this
Catching Up on Pop Culture: Mandalorian and Nicolas Cage
00:13:38
SirRonthePoor
is more of a ah me self-own. I don't know. Did you even realize that the Mandalorian movie was out?
00:13:48
Chris
Yes, but
00:13:50
SirRonthePoor
Okay.
00:13:51
Chris
Yeah, i was I was thinking about going last weekend, but maybe this weekend. i don't know. But then it's, know, my wife's like, oh, you should go. You like Star Wars. I'm like, but it's going to the movies.
00:14:00
SirRonthePoor
Right. I legitimately didn't know it was out in theaters. didn't I knew it was coming out this year. I had no clue that it was out. I think I've lost touch.
00:14:18
Chris
Well, it's not. that way I think it's also... I mean, the media you're taking in you know, you know, I think most of the advertisements in all now are, you know, social media and things.
00:14:30
Chris
So it's,
00:14:31
SirRonthePoor
And as a my lack of social media is, I guess I just don't see it anymore.
00:14:36
Chris
yeah, I blame your wife.
00:14:37
SirRonthePoor
It's kind of nice.
00:14:38
Chris
She should have let you know. Yeah.
00:14:40
SirRonthePoor
She should have let me know. I also didn't know that there was a Spider Noir movie.
00:14:46
Chris
Oh, is it a movie or a series?
00:14:48
SirRonthePoor
Oh, I don't know. It has Nicolas Cage in it. I assumed it was a movie.
00:14:50
Chris
Yeah, it's yeah, because it's on Disney Plus.
00:14:50
SirRonthePoor
clue.
00:14:55
SirRonthePoor
No clue.
00:14:56
Chris
Yeah. i Yeah. i A buddy of mine was talking about it. I was like, I don't know. Nick Cage being Nick Cage. I just.
00:15:06
SirRonthePoor
but didn't get to play Superman, so i it play Spider-Man.
00:15:09
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. but Just inevitably you can watch it in black and white or in color.
00:15:15
SirRonthePoor
Oh!
00:15:16
Chris
yeah so yeah and you can like flip it on the fly it's like yeah i don't know i'm sure i'll check it out eventually it's just oh no spider noir isn't i mean the whole noir thing isn't my jam for the most part so and nick cage is crazy
00:15:17
SirRonthePoor
That's kind of cool.
00:15:33
SirRonthePoor
Right, yeah.
00:15:38
SirRonthePoor
Well, but he owns his crazy.
00:15:41
Chris
oh yeah he does i mean what was that movie ever but uh the
00:15:45
SirRonthePoor
Oh, the one with Pedro Pascal?
00:15:47
Chris
Yeah, price of, don't know, whatever.
00:15:49
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, that whatever that... was a crazy movie.
00:15:51
Chris
Yeah, that was, yes, it was. Yep.
00:15:53
SirRonthePoor
Yeah.
00:15:54
Chris
So, but the man, I think in the last two years has been in 85 movies, so.
00:16:00
SirRonthePoor
Well, apparently he has to do that because he has terrible spending habits, so he just is broke constantly.
00:16:11
SirRonthePoor
So he's a always in movies.
00:16:12
Chris
Oh my gosh.
00:16:13
SirRonthePoor
That's that's why I've heard. Yeah.
00:16:15
Chris
i guess i mean I guess that's a screenwriter's dream. They're like, hey, you know when in doubt, Nick Cage will be in it.
00:16:21
SirRonthePoor
Right, yeah. Yeah, he did that Renfield movie. It was pretty good.
00:16:25
Chris
Yeah.
00:16:26
SirRonthePoor
He was a very over-the-top vampire.
00:16:29
Chris
He's a very over-the-top man.
00:16:32
SirRonthePoor
He is.
00:16:32
Chris
Yeah.
00:16:33
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, it works in some movies. It's...
00:16:35
Chris
Yeah. Like face-off.
00:16:38
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, but it does work in FaceTime.
00:16:42
Chris
Yeah. I don't...
00:16:44
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, I just feel like i've i'm I'm out of the loop.
00:16:45
Chris
Hmm.
00:16:47
SirRonthePoor
Actually, on top of this topic, like, side-tank to this topic, because I was on vacation for three, two weeks, right?
00:16:54
Chris
Yeah.
00:16:54
SirRonthePoor
Whatever it was.
00:16:55
Chris
Yeah.
00:16:56
SirRonthePoor
Going back on vacation again, starting Monday.
00:16:59
Chris
Good for you.
00:16:59
SirRonthePoor
But, yeah. I, like, didn't log in to my phone for, like, a week. but Like, I did my Duolingo, and that was it.
00:17:08
Chris
Yeah.
00:17:09
SirRonthePoor
And I literally told my wife at one point, i was like, I don't know what day it is And I don't know what's happening anywhere. like
00:17:19
Chris
Yeah, but you but you knew what was happening, what mattered in your little bubble around your house. So yeah.
00:17:24
SirRonthePoor
Sure. Yeah, yeah, totally. But I had zero concept of the world around me.
00:17:29
Chris
Yeah.
00:17:30
SirRonthePoor
And it was kind of great.
00:17:32
Chris
Yeah.
00:17:33
SirRonthePoor
I'm not going to lie. like
00:17:34
Chris
Yeah.
00:17:35
SirRonthePoor
It was super nice to just not know what's going on.
00:17:40
Chris
Yeah, I think more people need to do that.
00:17:43
SirRonthePoor
um I think they'd be a little help happier and healthier.
00:17:48
Chris
Oh, absolutely, yeah.
00:17:50
SirRonthePoor
Worrying about other people's shit all the time
Social Connections and Workplace Dynamics
00:17:52
SirRonthePoor
is not good for us.
00:17:52
Chris
Yeah. No, it's not.
00:17:54
SirRonthePoor
we like it' so like Years ago, i nice somebody was talking about socially, we're really only meant to deal with 20 people. right like we were We evolved in little groups of 20 people, and that's like the limit of what we can care about.
00:18:10
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:12
SirRonthePoor
When we start caring about more than that, it gets really out of control.
00:18:17
Chris
And I think especially when it's people that you don't even know or have contact with, or, you know, impact with.
00:18:24
SirRonthePoor
Right.
00:18:27
SirRonthePoor
Yeah.
00:18:28
Chris
Yeah. What?
00:18:29
SirRonthePoor
Think about like trying to be friends, quote unquote, with like 100 people.
00:18:35
Chris
No.
00:18:35
SirRonthePoor
It's a crazy concept.
00:18:37
Chris
Yeah, no, no.
00:18:38
SirRonthePoor
yeah I'm friends with like four people.
00:18:40
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. yeah
00:18:42
SirRonthePoor
Like, there are four people in my life who, if shit went down, no matter what, I'm coming.
00:18:50
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:50
SirRonthePoor
Right? That's about it.
00:18:52
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. No. Yeah. okay well
00:18:55
SirRonthePoor
Besides my wife, you know, family.
00:18:57
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. But you get to that point. You, like you said that, you know, the hundred and everything, I think that's part of I don't know. Down, not downfall. I don't know how to really put it, but the bad part of like social media and things. Cause you, you're like, Ooh, I'm friends with this person and this and that, but you get to that,
00:19:17
Chris
bullshit stage with them no thoughts and prayers and stuff and it's now
00:19:23
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, it's, it's, um, it's unhealthy and it's, but it's funny.
00:19:27
Chris
yeah it spreads your bandwidth
00:19:30
SirRonthePoor
Um, yeah the, the, the French guy was riding the engine the other day and he said, uh, I like Salisbury's. You guys are like a family. And I'm like, kinda. mean, we used to be.
00:19:44
SirRonthePoor
and he's like, what? I'm like, I really only know like 20 people in the Salisbury Fire Department anymore. He's like, what? I'm like, there are people legitimately on B-Shift who I have never interacted with, couldn't identify, barely know if they work for the Salisbury Fire Department.
00:19:57
Chris
right
00:20:00
SirRonthePoor
A lot of times when you guys send out a little emails saying, congratulations to this person, I'm like, I don't know who that person is. Legitimately don't know who this person is.
00:20:08
Chris
do we need to start putting a picture well that's like i that's why i try sometimes to put you know like congratulations to you know like you know johnny two-step on 2c so that way people can't lease this oh he works on you know c shift over at two okay
00:20:10
SirRonthePoor
maybe
00:20:27
SirRonthePoor
and i mean it's partially me because i don't interact with them anymore but it's partially just we're we've become past my little bubble of i can deal with you you know i can't
00:20:36
Chris
right yeah yeah exactly yeah because those are the ones at your station it's yeah
00:20:39
SirRonthePoor
When we were a shift of 12 people, you were very close with 12 people. yeahre We're now shifts of 22 people in our shift, 23 or something. I'm really only close with five of them.
00:20:53
SirRonthePoor
Right. And it's... I can identify them all. But it's it is a different world. And that, like... He was... like
00:21:03
Chris
i just just imagine like somebody doing a mutual or overtime from yeah like 16b and they walk in you're like are you even ah employee how'd you how'd you get in the building show your paper son
00:21:13
SirRonthePoor
Right. now youre um paul How did you get in this building? yeah
00:21:20
SirRonthePoor
Yeah. I mean, there are people who work for the city who I know, like i know their names. i can i They're like, I've worked here for seven of years.
00:21:26
Chris
yeah prove it uh
00:21:28
SirRonthePoor
I'm like, i really?
00:21:35
SirRonthePoor
Yeah. It's it's really off-putting for me because they all know who I am. but I don't know who they are.
00:21:39
Chris
Mm. Yeah.
00:21:41
SirRonthePoor
I feel very awkward about that.
00:21:44
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:21:45
SirRonthePoor
Because there's like, and there are some people in 2C who are like, I don't know if I'm like, it feels really weird because they're always like very happy to talk to me. And I'm like, I don't really know who you are.
00:21:58
Chris
Yeah.
00:22:00
SirRonthePoor
Like I got the 1C people down.
00:22:00
Chris
Yeah.
00:22:02
SirRonthePoor
I got the 1A people down. interact with them.
00:22:04
Chris
Well, yeah, because you interact with them routinely.
00:22:07
SirRonthePoor
Past that, it's tough.
00:22:08
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:22:10
SirRonthePoor
We haven't promoted anybody I don't know yet.
00:22:13
Chris
That's good.
00:22:14
SirRonthePoor
I say yet.
00:22:15
Chris
yet Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:22:19
Chris
yeah How's he being getting put to sergeant? he doesn't He's only worked here for two months.
00:22:24
SirRonthePoor
Right.
00:22:24
Chris
ah He's been here 12 years.
00:22:26
SirRonthePoor
Yeah. I'm becoming the old doddering man that I used to be. ah
00:22:35
SirRonthePoor
I need my ammo screws to wear blue, my engine screws to wear red.
00:22:35
Chris
Yeah.
00:22:39
Chris
Yeah.
00:22:41
Chris
What's like the other day, i can't remember who it was. Oh, it was, uh, it was, ah the Lieutenant from one C, when they were over for the cancer testing and the fire marshal, he was like, who is that person? I was like, oh, that's the chauffeur at it. Station one.
00:22:59
Chris
Really? Yeah. How long has he been here? a while. Huh? Interesting. It's like, yeah, yeah.
00:23:08
SirRonthePoor
I think you guys have less excuse than I do.
00:23:08
Chris
Yeah.
00:23:11
Chris
Well, I could see the fire marshal's office because he's back in his, you know, area.
00:23:16
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, but he probably should be out interacting with the guys.
00:23:19
Chris
Yeah, he does on calls.
00:23:22
SirRonthePoor
Does he?
00:23:23
Chris
Well, he sees the people he knows and.
00:23:26
SirRonthePoor
Yeah. Yeah, he comes talking to me because he knows He doesn't talk to anybody else.
00:23:29
Chris
Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I just. Yeah, I think, you getting back to your thing, it's the whole bandwidth and what can you maintain?
00:23:41
Chris
what should you maintain? What's healthy to maintain?
00:23:44
SirRonthePoor
Well, I think my bandwidth is going down.
00:23:49
Chris
Yeah.
00:23:50
SirRonthePoor
I think legitimately my bandwidth for interaction with people is is the lowest has ever been in my life. I don't know if that's a good thing a bad thing, but I think that's just where I'm at.
00:24:03
Chris
Well, mean, who Research suggests the sweet spot, it's just like span of control, is three to five close friends.
00:24:12
SirRonthePoor
Well, then I'm right in there.
00:24:12
Chris
You have your core circle of three to five, the the acquaintances up to about 150, a broader network of people you're friendly with, known as the Dunbar's number, but you don't really interact with.
00:24:33
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, I mean, I'm friendly with 120 people because they work in the song same fire department as me.
00:24:38
Chris
Right, yeah.
00:24:39
SirRonthePoor
like It's about it.
00:24:42
Chris
Yeah.
00:24:45
SirRonthePoor
if If I haven't been to your house in a year, can I consider you a front close friend or talk to you?
00:24:50
Chris
Yeah.
00:24:55
SirRonthePoor
Right? Like talk to you personally over a year.
00:24:55
Chris
Right. Yeah.
00:24:59
SirRonthePoor
Are you a friend at that point? I would imagine you're not.
00:25:02
Chris
Yeah, that's yeah. See, this is why we need like stats and stuff, because I could easily see, ah look, yeah know you're an acquaintance.
00:25:12
SirRonthePoor
yeah and i have friends who or people who were close friends who are now acquaintances because i don't interact with them anymore they've moved away or you know they just their life choices are different than mine you know and still friendly with those people but i i don't have bandwidth to know what's going on in their lives no no i probably really only know what's going on in
00:25:20
Chris
Yeah.
00:25:26
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:25:30
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:25:32
Chris
Yeah, know.
00:25:35
Chris
Yeah.
00:25:38
SirRonthePoor
three people's lives that are not now my own family.
00:25:40
Chris
Yeah. Oh, yeah. yeah Yeah, again, I mean, that's yeah your inner circle, which is, yeah.
00:25:45
SirRonthePoor
Yeah.
00:25:46
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Signs you've reached too many friends. Shallow connections. You have hundreds of casual acquaintances or social media followers, but no one you can truly confide in. Yeah, that's not a good thing.
00:25:55
SirRonthePoor
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
00:25:56
Chris
ah You feel constantly drained or overstimulated because you're trying to keep up with too many different social outings.
00:26:03
SirRonthePoor
Mm-hmm.
00:26:03
Chris
Mm-hmm. And you find yourself mass inviting friends to save time for getting important dates or details about the people who matter in the most. Yeah.
00:26:10
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, yeah. To be fair, I have a friend who I've known 20
00:26:12
Chris
Yeah.
00:26:17
SirRonthePoor
plus years at this point, probably 20, almost 30 years. I talked to this man twice a week at a minimum, at the minimum twice a week.
00:26:26
Chris
Yeah. Mm-hmm.
00:26:28
SirRonthePoor
I don't know what his birthday is. Legitimately. I know what month it's in.
00:26:31
Chris
Yeah.
00:26:32
SirRonthePoor
That's about it as close as I can come.
00:26:35
Chris
yeah yeah
00:26:38
SirRonthePoor
and i don't think i've ever known his birthday
00:26:40
Chris
yeah but that's another that's don't know guys are different about that yeah there
00:26:45
SirRonthePoor
that It's fair.
00:26:47
SirRonthePoor
I went to his birthday party last year.
00:26:50
Chris
you go yeah
00:26:50
SirRonthePoor
I can tell you what month it is.
00:26:54
Chris
yeah yeah mm-hmm yeah
00:26:54
SirRonthePoor
Early-ish December. Close friend. Actually, my besides you, my other closest friend, I know his birthday week.
00:27:06
Chris
hmm okay yeah well yeah yeah let me go back to your hole oh yeah
00:27:06
SirRonthePoor
His wife and him are both born in the same week, and I can't tell you for the life of me whose birthday is which day. But it's close enough. I just like wait for that week go' like, happy happy happy birthday, guys. And then I feel like I'm over here.
00:27:21
SirRonthePoor
And I just go back to my hole. Yeah.
00:27:26
SirRonthePoor
And it's going be weird because majority of my friends are going to turn 50 at the same time.
00:27:31
Chris
hmm
00:27:32
SirRonthePoor
Like in the same year. It's going to be a lot of 50th birthdays. I'm to have to like feel obligated to be like, oh, I just have to do something with your birthday.
00:27:43
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, i mean, I feel like that's a big birthday, right? That's a thing you...
00:27:47
Chris
I guess. don't know. I just went to a 50th party last night, but I don't know.
00:27:55
SirRonthePoor
I mean, you're turning 50 before me, so we'll see what how we handle it.
00:27:59
Chris
yeah Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. Yep. That whole day. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. yeah
00:28:06
SirRonthePoor
I know, your birthday?
00:28:08
Chris
yeah yeah yeah Yeah, I know yours. i know the guy on 16 Cause we're right there together.
00:28:15
SirRonthePoor
yeah
00:28:18
Chris
that I will say my handy dandy little phone helps me out because you know, I'll figure out at somebody's birthday, send them a text message and it says, would you like to add their birthday to their contact info? Yes, I would. So then I have it.
00:28:33
SirRonthePoor
I do that too, and then I never check my phone.
00:28:36
Chris
Hmm.
00:28:37
SirRonthePoor
I'm so bad at checking my calendar that I almost miss my haircut appointment every time.
Scheduling and Personal Mistakes
00:28:47
SirRonthePoor
They send me a text message like two days before the thing, you know, reminder of your appointment, buth blah, blah, blah. And then i still forget.
00:28:56
Chris
Yeah.
00:28:56
SirRonthePoor
It happened literally yesterday.
00:29:00
Chris
How do you forget that?
00:29:02
SirRonthePoor
Because I know that the appointment was yesterday.
00:29:06
Chris
Yeah.
00:29:06
SirRonthePoor
For some reason, my brain goes, oh, it's at 11 o'clock, but it was at 1030.
00:29:10
Chris
Mm.
00:29:10
SirRonthePoor
And just happened to be at 10 o'clock.
00:29:11
Chris
Mm.
00:29:12
SirRonthePoor
I like, I better check, make sure this thing's at 11, not 1030.
00:29:15
Chris
Yeah.
00:29:16
SirRonthePoor
And it was like, oh, no, it's a 1030. I'm like, motherfucker.
00:29:19
Chris
Well, at least you didn't do what you have done in the past and schedule it 9 the morning you get off.
00:29:24
SirRonthePoor
I've done that, too. i did I did that last month. Legitimately did that last month. And I was like, what? Why do I do these things to myself?
00:29:33
Chris
yeah Yeah, you literally know every day you're going to work till you retire.
00:29:38
SirRonthePoor
I know every day that I'm going to work between now and my retirement date. I know every morning that I'm going to get off. I also know that I don't want to do haircuts every morning. I also know that work two hours away from where I live.
00:29:52
Chris
Yeah.
00:29:52
SirRonthePoor
it If I pick an appointment at two hours from when I get off work, that's a bad thing.
00:29:59
Chris
Yeah. Yeah, that leaves no room for error.
00:30:01
SirRonthePoor
No! I'm a 46-year-old man who has no time management skills. It's not good. there's a time management, it's calendar management.
00:30:12
Chris
Yeah, it's Calendar. Yeah, because time, you're good.
00:30:14
SirRonthePoor
Yeah.
00:30:15
Chris

SirRonthePoor

00:32:07

00:32:09
Chris
Yeah.
00:32:10
SirRonthePoor

SirRonthePoor
I probably is. i don't disagree with you. I've just been watching.
00:32:33
Chris
Yeah.
00:32:35
SirRonthePoor
I've really been watching World War II tank documentaries.
00:32:37
Chris
Oh.
00:32:38
SirRonthePoor
That's about it.
00:32:39
Chris
OK. Yeah.
00:32:40
SirRonthePoor
I don't know, man. It's tough. my my my but My thing's shrinking. My bandwidth is gone.
00:32:50
Chris
You're bait with this golem. What's like, what was it? ah On, oh, for the PlayStation Essentials or whatever, don't know, the free games that you get. It was that Star Wars Outlaws. And I was like, oh, okay, it's free. I'll actually check it out. And started playing it, and I'm like, it's fine.
00:33:13
Chris
and I was talking to my wife about it last weekend. And was explaining it. She was like, well, what's the gameplay like? i was like, well, you know, you're this, you know, kind of smuggler and you're working with the different, you know, factions and yeah, you gotta sneak around a little bit and all. She was like, well, you know, are you a Jedi? I was like, no, no, no, you're just a smuggler or nothing. She's like, well, that's why you don't like it. It doesn't have a lightsaber.
00:33:36
Chris
Star Wars needs lightsabers.
00:33:36
SirRonthePoor
It's very true.
00:33:37
Chris
It's like, you got a point woman.
00:33:39
SirRonthePoor
got
00:33:39
Chris
You got a point.
00:33:42
SirRonthePoor
No one had great things to say about that game.
00:33:45
Chris
Yeah.
00:33:47
SirRonthePoor
Yeah. And I think that the opinion that I read from most people was exactly yours. It's fine.
00:33:54
Chris
Yeah.
00:33:55
SirRonthePoor
But then you have to think, like do I want to waste my time playing something that's fine?
00:34:02
Chris
Yeah.
00:34:03
SirRonthePoor
just don't.
00:34:04
Chris
Right. Yeah.
00:34:06
SirRonthePoor
you know I only have so much time in a day.
00:34:06
Chris
Yeah. So yeah Yeah. So instead, I saw that the latest Devil May Cry was on sale for like $6. So I was like, I'll grab that and do some mindless hack and slash.
00:34:19
SirRonthePoor
There you go.
00:34:20
Chris
Yep.
00:34:20
SirRonthePoor
And you're probably like, this is better than fine.
00:34:23
Chris
So oh, yeah. Yeah. I'm really enjoying it. So yeah. Which, that's another one. Have you watched the Devil May Cry series on Netflix?
00:34:32

Yeah, okay. yeah
00:36:19
Chris
it's actually It's actually pretty funny in some spots, so.
00:36:23
SirRonthePoor
Well, that's good because Vince Vaughn in anything where he's not trying to be funny is terrible.
00:36:27
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:36:28
SirRonthePoor
I'm sorry to tell you this, Vince Vaughn, but stop doing anything that's not funny.

SirRonthePoor
And then you go to Hulu and it's like, we don't have that movie. It's on Netflix. it's like, what the? For some reason, it's on Apple.

Gaming World Updates: Destiny 2's End and Bungie's Future
00:41:02
Chris
I'm sure you've seen the news.
00:41:04
Chris
Destiny is officially done 9th. june ninth
00:41:04
SirRonthePoor
I might not have.
00:41:10
SirRonthePoor
actually had not seen that news.
00:41:11
Chris
Oh yeah, they made this big announcement because it's been kind of like radio silence since about February as to what was going on with destiny. We knew that, you know, the next expansion for this year was going to be in June.
00:41:28
Chris
And then finally last week, Bungie came out and said, we have made the decision that June 9th will be the last ah update to Destiny 2. The game will still be playable, you know, afterward, it's just we're not going to actively support, an you know, roll out updates and things like that.
00:41:47
Chris
So, but it sounds like they're, like, unlocking everything from the vault and all, and it's just like, here is everything. Go play Destiny. Enjoy yourselves. We're sorry that it came to this.
00:41:59
SirRonthePoor
Huh.
00:42:00
Chris
Yeah.
00:42:02
SirRonthePoor
That's a shame.
00:42:03
Chris
Well, and they also said, and there's currently no uh, active development on destiny three.
00:42:12
SirRonthePoor
Huh.
00:42:12
Chris
That sucks.
00:42:14
SirRonthePoor
I don't know what Bungie's doing.
00:42:16
Chris
Well, I think when, once Sony bought them, it really changed them.
00:42:23
SirRonthePoor
But what are they now? Because they put out Marathon, which...
00:42:25
Chris
Yeah.
00:42:27
Chris
It's got less concurrence right now than destiny two does then destiny one.
00:42:28
SirRonthePoor
I don't...
00:42:30
SirRonthePoor
Alright, I was going to say... right No one seems really interested in Marathon.
00:42:36
Chris
Well, it's cause it's, that's not, why you go to bungie
00:42:39
SirRonthePoor
Right. It's a... I don't even really... I haven't played the game, but I hear it's just basically a bad creators.
00:42:45
Chris
yeah it's an extraction shooter the gunplay in it was decent because i played the alpha and the beta and it was i mean the gunplay was there but yeah just the the overall interactions and everything that's just not
00:42:47
SirRonthePoor
Right. And...
00:42:56
SirRonthePoor
Sure. Sure.
00:43:05
Chris
Yeah, that's not Bungie. And I saw something about the, ah well, we're going to add a PVE mode to Marathon.
00:43:07
SirRonthePoor
I just...
00:43:11
Chris
It's like, no, no.
00:43:16
SirRonthePoor
Well, how long... that like it It becomes the ship of Theseus, right? like We've replaced so much of Bungie with something else. Is it still Bungie?
00:43:23
Chris
Yeah, yeah.
00:43:24
Chris
I mean, you don't have, it's it's very similar to BioWare.
00:43:24
SirRonthePoor
You know, like...
00:43:29
SirRonthePoor
right you got 343 split off of bungee right to make halos and then so you're no longer the the halo company right because bungee was the halo guys you come out with destiny which was an amazing ride like everybody i mean no one really has bad things to about any destiny that i you know
00:43:43
Chris
Yeah.
00:43:52
Chris
Yeah. I mean, yeah. The 10 plus years we've had destiny.
00:43:55
SirRonthePoor
Right. And then you're like, oh, we're going to bring back Marathon, which is the name of our first shooter that no one really cared about or or knew about.
00:44:06
Chris
Yeah. But we're going to bring it back in a different imagining because
00:44:10
SirRonthePoor
Right.
00:44:13
Chris
The original marathon and this marathon are two wildly different games.
00:44:17
SirRonthePoor
Right. And now we're, what are we? like i what what what is I don't understand what Bungie's long-term plan is.
00:44:20
Chris
Yeah.
00:44:24
SirRonthePoor
And maybe their plan is nothing.
00:44:26
Chris
Yeah, I mean.
00:44:27
SirRonthePoor
Because
00:44:30
Chris
To me, this is.
00:44:34
Chris
What Bungie is right now. so they launched marathon. it didn't perform the way they wanted it to. They are sunsetting destiny two, they don't have an active plan for destiny three.
00:44:48
Chris
I mean, will Bungie even be around this time next year?
00:44:52
SirRonthePoor
ah Is it around now is my real point?
00:44:54
Chris
Well, yeah.
00:44:55
SirRonthePoor
you know
00:44:55
Chris
Yeah.
00:44:57
SirRonthePoor
it It feels like all of the people that made Bungie Bungie are gone right at this point.
00:45:03
Chris
Yeah.
00:45:04
SirRonthePoor
i i know I don't know the inner workings of who's left from the original Bungie, but i it can't be many.
00:45:05
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:45:09
Chris
yeah Yeah. I don't think really there's anybody. There's probably like one guy.
00:45:16
SirRonthePoor
Right.
00:45:17
Chris
like ah designed the like the little guy in the basement who's my stapler.
00:45:17
SirRonthePoor
Because one guy's like, I've been here the whole time. They're like, oh. but You're still here? thought we fired you 10 years ago. you know
00:45:28
SirRonthePoor
But... It just... It feels like when they transitioned to Destiny 1, I was like, oh, this is the new Bungie thing. Right?
00:45:39
SirRonthePoor
<unk>ve we've We've developed what we want. We've got a cool story. We've got a cool universe. We're going to play around this universe. And they were like, all right, cool, Destiny 2. And I'm like, you guys are, you've rocked it. And now you're,
00:45:49
Chris
Yeah.
00:45:53
SirRonthePoor
i don't know. It just feels like they they don't know what the hell their company is. And they don't, they don't know what they are. And they fired like few years ago, they fired the guy who did the music.
00:46:05
Chris
Yeah. Oh, God, yeah.
00:46:07
SirRonthePoor
And like,
00:46:07
Chris
um a cut I can see him because he comes up on like my most played because I listen to their soundtracks all the time.
00:46:15
SirRonthePoor
Right, and like it's such an iconic part of their games is the music, which is such a weird thing to say, but Bungie rocks the music, and they fired that guy, and i was like, oh, we've they've lost their, they don't know what they are.
00:46:17
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:46:28
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:46:29
SirRonthePoor
Right, and then it was all a sudden, it's like the guy who did the sandbox development for Halo got fired, and like, oh, you're a different company.
00:46:30
Chris
Yeah.
00:46:38
SirRonthePoor
Oh, sad.
00:46:40
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. um yeah I'm trying to look up to see who from the original. um
00:46:51
Chris
Tyson Green has been with the company for two decades.
00:46:53
SirRonthePoor
Never heard of them.
00:46:57
Chris
Yeah. uh yeah i don't really yeah i mean not really anybody there's only like it's uh there's only two to four members left that were there at the 343 oh my god yeah i mean yeah
00:47:14
SirRonthePoor
Sure.
00:47:17
SirRonthePoor
And even probably most of the people who developed Destiny 1 are gone.
00:47:21
Chris
yeah yeah
00:47:21
SirRonthePoor
You know. And it's just, it's, it's, it's becomes this thing of, ah of what is your company? I mean, we talk about with Bioware all the time.
00:47:29
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:47:30
SirRonthePoor
Like, why can't Bioware make a new Bioware game? And I think it just becomes this thing of like, we don't know what we are because we fired all the people that matter.
00:47:40
Chris
Right. Yeah, exactly.
00:47:44
SirRonthePoor
and i I get it. Who wants to do the same project for 30 years? You know, but,
00:47:48
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. But there are some, there are some games or services that still do it. I mean, wow is still running.
00:47:57
SirRonthePoor
Yeah.
00:47:58
Chris
Final Fantasy 14. Yeah.
Gaming Industry Critique: Profit vs. Quality
00:48:01
Chris
um yeah yeah what is Oh my god.
00:48:01
SirRonthePoor
Look at Grand Theft Auto, for God's sakes. you know
00:48:05
Chris
I saw something stupid the other day. That Grand Theft Auto Online brings in. Like a million dollars a day.
00:48:11
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, it is the most profitable gaming franchise ever.
00:48:15
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:48:16
SirRonthePoor
and it's and And by the way, that's based off of one of the franchises. Like, Grand Theft Auto 1, 2, 3, 4 pales in comparison to Grand Theft Auto V.
00:48:21
Chris
Yeah.
00:48:26
SirRonthePoor
That's why theyre they're not worried about GTA 6, because they're like, well, yeah, that's cash cow still.
00:48:31
Chris
Right. Yeah.
00:48:32
SirRonthePoor
yeah
00:48:32
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:48:33
SirRonthePoor
And...
00:48:33
Chris
I don't know if that's what destiny was banking on to do that everlasting cobstopper, but then they kind of lost track, I think.
00:48:43
SirRonthePoor
What? I think they just they stopped understanding what made Destiny good.
00:48:49
Chris
Yeah.
00:48:50
SirRonthePoor
And for me, when I jumped back into Destiny 2, I was like, this is a nut. I guess it's it's like the frog in the boiling water, right? You played the whole way through, so you were like, oh, this is just Destiny.
00:48:58
Chris
Hmm.
00:49:00
SirRonthePoor
But when I jumped in, i was like, this isn't Destiny.
00:49:01
Chris
Yeah.
00:49:04
Chris
Right.
00:49:04
SirRonthePoor
this is This is an MMO pretending like when you see people running around in Christmas skins, you're like, oh, what the heck is this game?
00:49:13
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:49:14
SirRonthePoor
right you got guys with lightsabers you're like what what this isn't destiny
00:49:17
Chris
Right. That's a Praxic Blade.
00:49:23
SirRonthePoor
okay it's a fucking lightsaber
00:49:25
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, at the end of the day, yeah, I'm happy that my Warlock has a lightsaber and a blaster now but you know yeah no it's not no yeah <unk> yeah
00:49:34
SirRonthePoor
Right, but if it's not Destiny, it's
00:49:38
SirRonthePoor
it's the same. it's And I would love to see a Destiny 3. I would love for them to be like, we hooked up. we're We're in development because they're have to do something.
00:49:50
Chris
yeah yeah no no but which it's funny um starting tuesday the second
00:49:51
SirRonthePoor
Marathon's not going to make money. Right.
00:49:59
Chris
Leading up to Bungie's or Destiny's final update, Marathon is free for all players for a week.
00:50:10
SirRonthePoor
But people aren't going like, oh, I love Destiny so much, I'm going to jump into Marathon.
00:50:14
Chris
ah Exactly. Exactly. So I don't i don't know.
00:50:19
SirRonthePoor
Like, loot shooter is a thing, right?
00:50:19
Chris
But yeah. Yeah.
00:50:22
SirRonthePoor
Destiny's a loot shooter.
00:50:24
Chris
Yeah. yeah it
00:50:26
SirRonthePoor
I don't want a transaction from that to an extraction shooter, right?
00:50:29
Chris
Right.
00:50:30
SirRonthePoor
And...
00:50:30
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Because inevitably with that, you get pair paired up with a couple of randos and everybody's doing their own thing. While in destiny, you can get paired up with randos, but you're doing the same goal and you kind of work together.
00:50:49
Chris
So yeah.
00:50:49
SirRonthePoor
and it's it i it's it sucks because I love the story of destiny I think it's cool it's convoluted it's crazy you know there's all this backstory lore that you have to like dig to find and then when you dig and find it it's like rewarding and they're not going to do that anymore
00:50:54
Chris
Yeah.
00:50:57
Chris
Yeah.
00:51:05
Chris
Yeah. yeah Yeah. Yeah. ah yeah yeah I mean, and you know, destiny three doesn't have to be a continuation of what destiny two was.
00:51:17
Chris
you Go back, take us back to, you know, the golden era or whatever, you know, give us some of those, you know, early stories, you know,
00:51:23
SirRonthePoor
mm-hmm yeah
00:51:27
Chris
of you know some of the first Guardians and all that.
00:51:28
SirRonthePoor
its
00:51:30
SirRonthePoor
you built this universe and and i you know it's sad right yeah yeah and it's sad i mean it's it's sad to see destiny go i think um
00:51:30
Chris
thing um Yeah. It's kind of like the Star Wars stuff. I mean, you know there's this giant universe. Don't just focus on this one little subset.
00:51:43
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Well, I mean, you talked about earlier your bandwidth and everything because of Destiny. I have three fairly close friends.
00:51:56
SirRonthePoor
Sure.
00:51:57
Chris
Yeah.
00:51:57
SirRonthePoor
Yeah. Yeah. And what
00:52:00
Chris
So that I message with on the daily and, you know, at least weekly.
00:52:06
SirRonthePoor
and what are you going do with them? Because now there's but there's nothing like Destiny to replace Destiny.
00:52:10
Chris
Yeah. Well, most of them hopped off Destiny a while ago. So it's just, you we talk about random shit, but yeah.
00:52:14
SirRonthePoor
Yeah. Sure.
00:52:17
Chris
Yeah. It's, it's a shame. Like, you know, I turned the chat off for the clan. I'm in a destiny because I'm like, I'm kind of done with it. Because, i mean, yeah, I'll definitely hop back in on the 9th and see what's going on and everything. But.
00:52:33
SirRonthePoor
And how long do you think until they just shut the servers down?
00:52:38
Chris
um
00:52:39
SirRonthePoor
Because they don't have Microsoft, right?
00:52:41
Chris
Right.
00:52:42
SirRonthePoor
Just keep their servers running, right?
00:52:44
Chris
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Sony's not going to keep these going forever.
00:52:47
SirRonthePoor
No.
00:52:48
Chris
um I hate to say it, but I would say Christmas time.
00:52:53
SirRonthePoor
Yeah. If it makes it that long, I'd be impressed, actually.
00:52:57
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:52:59
SirRonthePoor
Because, like, Halo... Halo did an amazing... Like, the smartest thing they did was they put out that Master Chief collection. So all of the the but the legacy games are still played.
00:53:11
SirRonthePoor
I mean, like, I think, like, Halo 2 is still one of the most played games on Xbox.
00:53:14
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:15
SirRonthePoor
You know?
00:53:15
Chris
Oh yeah, I'm sure.
00:53:17
SirRonthePoor
And it... That came out came out and 2004?
00:53:21
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:23
SirRonthePoor
Something like that. you know I remember calling out work from work to go play Halo 2.
00:53:30
SirRonthePoor
They did a really smart thing to keep those servers up, but I don't see Sony being like, we're goingnna keep the Destiny servers up.
00:53:33
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:36
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:37
SirRonthePoor
Because they're not going to get money out of it
00:53:40
Chris
Yeah. Halo 2 still sees between 11,000 and 12,000 players daily.
00:53:46
SirRonthePoor
it. For a game that's 20 years old.
00:53:49
Chris
Yep.
00:53:50
SirRonthePoor
you know
00:53:50
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:52
SirRonthePoor
And I don't know what Destiny's numbers are, right?
00:53:55
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:55
SirRonthePoor
But it won't. It'll be that sad thing where it's like the last guy closing the door on Destiny, right?
00:54:04
Chris
Yeah. Let's Destiny 2.
00:54:09
Chris
Roughly 120,000 players concurrently. Yeah. Yeah.
00:54:15
Chris
roughly a hundred and twenty thousand players concurrently
00:54:21
SirRonthePoor
It seems like a good proportion. I guess the problem is now these companies are like, I need a million players a day or it's not worth the time.
00:54:27
Chris
yeah
00:54:29
SirRonthePoor
You know. But also you didn't put new Destiny out. You haven't even really put out a story expansion in a year, right?
00:54:34
Chris
yeah yeah yeah the last one was renegades yeah which
00:54:41
SirRonthePoor
Right. So what do you expect of the player base if you don't give them the thing that they're there to play? It's sad. This is why we should be in charge of the world.
00:54:53
Chris
yeah yeah yeah which i mean for what it's worth i know it's it doesn't do anything but i signed the petition for destiny 3. So I think it's up to like 310,000 players have signed it so far.
00:55:10
Chris
know Sony will look at that and be like, OK, good for you.
00:55:13
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, cool.
00:55:13
Chris
But
00:55:13
SirRonthePoor
We get a a million people play Spider-Man a day. you know We don't care about
00:55:17
Chris
yeah. Yeah.
00:55:19
SirRonthePoor
That's the problem. it is is Now you're in the Sony-verse and your numbers are never going to be good enough.
00:55:23
Chris
Yep.
00:55:26
Chris
Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's the thing. Well, and it's also, you when I'm sure when Sony bought Bungie, they were like, cool, we want you to put up Fortnite numbers.
00:55:38
SirRonthePoor
Right.
00:55:38
Chris
And it's not how that works.
00:55:41
SirRonthePoor
No.
00:55:41
Chris
So yeah.
00:55:41
SirRonthePoor
Yeah.
00:55:44
Chris
Yeah, it's it's greed.
00:55:44
SirRonthePoor
Oh
00:55:45
Chris
I mean, that's why Destiny 2 is shutting down. It's greed.
00:55:48
SirRonthePoor
um oh yeah, 100%.
00:55:49
Chris
So
00:55:50
SirRonthePoor
Which, again, their company they're company, going to make money.
00:55:52
Chris
yeah.
00:55:53
SirRonthePoor
And the problem is they want they want Fortnite money and they're not willing to accept Destiny money.
00:56:00
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:56:03
Chris
right oh yeah yeah yep yeah or or grand theft auto yeah yeah
00:56:03
SirRonthePoor
Right? Like they could easily, Destiny 3 could come out and make a profit, but it will never be Fortnite money. Right? It'll never be Call of Duty money. Right. It'll never be Grand Theft Auto money. Right.
00:56:17
SirRonthePoor
I don't know how Grand Theft Auto makes all that money. I can't stand it. But people love it.
00:56:23
Chris
yeah
00:56:24
SirRonthePoor
And they spend a lot of money on it. You know. this You're not going to make that money in a Destiny game. Because that's not the player base.
00:56:34
SirRonthePoor
and And it sucks to be in that player base going, oh, well, I'm getting shut out of everything.
00:56:38
Chris
yeah yeah
00:56:41
SirRonthePoor
That's how I feel. I feel like the games that I love, because they aren't these massive money makers, are just going to go away more and more and more.
00:56:50
Chris
yeah grand theft auto continues to make millions of dollars
00:56:51
SirRonthePoor
you know Yeah, sure.
00:56:56
Chris
Based on microtransactions in the game called Shark Cards. Shark Cards give players millions of virtual dollars used to buy high-end cars, apartments, businesses without having to grind for them. Huh.
00:57:10
Chris
Wow.
00:57:13
SirRonthePoor
And that game is a decade old?
00:57:13
Chris
um
00:57:16
Chris
Yeah.
00:57:20
SirRonthePoor
Right? I think it's least a decade.
00:57:20
Chris
GTA. sheet
00:57:27
Chris
Um, yeah.
00:57:35
Chris
Wow. Yeah. It's been around since, uh, 2015. Yep. Yeah.
00:57:39
SirRonthePoor
Yeah?
00:57:42
SirRonthePoor
Oh my God. GTA 5 has generated nearly $10 billion.
00:57:46
Chris
Yeah.
00:57:47
SirRonthePoor
Yeah. Yeah. No. billion dollars
00:57:51
Chris
Oh my gosh. That's ridiculous.
00:57:59
Chris
i yeah Yeah, I mean, that that's ah that's a bar no other game company can achieve.
00:58:11
SirRonthePoor
It's never going happen.
00:58:15
Chris
Yeah. Wow. So, yeah, just I'll log in next week, see what it's like, play for a while, and yeah.
00:58:26
Chris
hang out with some people I haven't hung out with in a while online and yeah
00:58:31
SirRonthePoor
Yeah.
00:58:34
SirRonthePoor
And then it'll be gone.
00:58:35
Chris
yeah it will yeah yeah yeah yeah
00:58:37
SirRonthePoor
It'll be sad. I'll be sad for it. And I don't even play it anymore. And I'll still be sad for I'll be sad for, I'm not sad that Destiny 2 is going away. I'm sad that the Destiny 3 is not going to happen.
00:58:50
Chris
yeah
00:58:51
SirRonthePoor
You know, it's kind of how I feel like the new, the Halo that's supposedly coming out that, you know, I don't know that I care about it anymore because the game has gotten so far away from Halo that I don't know what it is.
00:58:51
Chris
yeah yeah
00:58:58
Chris
Right. Yeah.
00:59:02
Chris
Yeah.
00:59:05
Chris
Yeah. It's a shame, like you said, when game developers forget what made them good and yeah do stuff like that.
00:59:15
SirRonthePoor
Yeah.
00:59:16
Chris
Lock all the Bioware and ONG and PlayStation 343 Xbox people together and just have a stern talking to.
00:59:25
SirRonthePoor
Yeah. I'm going sit you down talk to you.
00:59:28
Chris
Yeah.
00:59:33
SirRonthePoor
Well, on that side note, goodbye to Destiny.
00:59:35
Chris
Yeah. yeah
00:59:38
SirRonthePoor
And, um, Enjoy the games you enjoy, folks. Don't play stuff that is mediocre.
00:59:42
Chris
Yeah.
00:59:45
Chris
Right. Yeah. Yeah. Life's too short to play not great games.
00:59:49
SirRonthePoor
Yeah.
00:59:50
Chris
Yeah.
00:59:50
SirRonthePoor
And i can tell you this, I find more pleasure in non-AAA games than anything else of these days.
00:59:50
Chris
Yeah.
00:59:56
SirRonthePoor
so
00:59:57
Chris
Oh, yeah. Yeah. yeah I mean, there's a ton of fun to be had in and take what critics say about things with a grain of salt there. I've had a ton of fun with six out of tens and hated my experience with nine out of tens.
01:00:09
SirRonthePoor
Mm-hmm.
01:00:12
SirRonthePoor
A lot of times.
01:00:12
Chris
So yeah. Yeah. It's like we always talk about you do you.
01:00:17
SirRonthePoor
Yeah, do you?
01:00:18
Chris
Yeah. And yeah, take care of yourselves.
01:00:21
SirRonthePoor
Yep. See you, folks.
