Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:02:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
What are you thinking? Oh yeah.
00:02:10
Brother Devon
It's real sad, real sad.
00:02:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
See, the one thing you love you had to,
00:02:12
Brother Devon
It's all some friends.
00:02:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
You know, put down and just talk to, talk to people that they don't care about you.
00:02:16
Brother Devon
Trust me. No, you know what the worst part was? Like this was the worst part. I had to fucking like, we're cleaning up the house to have company over.
00:02:28
Brother Devon
So all i I was just like, man, I just really want to just sit down and just save the Imperium.
00:02:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hey, keep going, man.
00:02:34
Brother Devon
But instead I just got to wipe down the weird spot behind the trash can that we've never, you know, really wiped down before.
00:02:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
Let it up.
00:02:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Let me ask you, Devin.
00:02:42
Brother Devon
And then.
00:02:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
Let me ask you, wipe it down that spot. How did you make it make you feel?
00:02:46
Brother Devon
Maybe we feel like I was missing my brothers in in the Imperium in the space bringing war against Exactly Also, it's the moon of Daven that's where Horace fell to chaos officially The moon of Daven That was a little pre-podcast banter we were having
00:02:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
Moon of Devon It was a moon, right?
00:02:59
Phantom Libtard
The moon of Devon.
00:03:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
i thought it was important
00:03:12
Brother Devon
wow But yeah, so no, but, uh, yeah, not to play in space marine two and.
00:03:19
slimeballsteve
Spicemarine!
00:03:21
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hey space marine
00:03:21
Brother Devon
Unfortunately,
00:03:24
Brother Devon
unfortunately the Tyranids are just bug creatures, so they don't get to say, why are you doing on my ships? pi spra They don't get to talk like that.
00:03:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
Devin question, how would they talk?
00:03:34
Brother Devon
Yes. How would a Tyranid talk?
00:03:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
And may I give you an option?
00:03:40
Brother Devon
I would love to hear an example. Yeah.
00:03:44
Brother Devon
They don't talk like that. Hey, can I just highly put in a little feeding tubes?
00:03:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'm gonna turn you into biomatter.
00:03:57
Brother Devon
Yeah, no, they do that.
00:03:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's what I'm gonna do.
00:03:59
slimeballsteve
Pretty good.
00:03:59
Brother Devon
They certainly make everything disgusting.
00:04:02
slimeballsteve
Everything's goop.
00:04:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's not me!
00:04:03
Brother Devon
Those bugs.
00:04:04
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's disgusting! That's how I eat!
00:04:05
slimeballsteve
A lot of goop, a lot of visceral, a lot of gorgeous lying about.
00:04:11
Phantom Libtard
Mmm.
00:04:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hmm. I like it.
00:04:12
Brother Devon
Yeah, you know what? ah You know, it's it's been getting a lot of play ah in terms of just like people tweeting about it. And they're like, man, why don't they do games like this anymore?
00:04:24
Brother Devon
Which is always cool to see. But I think like one of the specific examples is like, man, I really miss when games would have like big massive things happening in the background while you're just playing the game.
00:04:36
slimeballsteve
Mmm.
00:04:38
Brother Devon
And that is something Space Marine 2 does very well.
00:04:42
slimeballsteve
It's kind of spectacular. There are points in the game where they're like, you have to hold off your ground until something happens in the background. And then it does.
00:04:51
Brother Devon
Yeah Yeah, and if you like shoot at them like you will kill those enemies Yeah, I was just shooting at them.
00:04:51
slimeballsteve
And you're like, God damn, that's a lot of tyranny running like.
00:04:58
slimeballsteve
Yeah, you will you will get points for them.
00:05:00
Brother Devon
It just leads 3 trillion fucking tear nids in the background running Yeah, dude like the scale of the game is I mean it's it's Warhammer is just like 40% scale like if you had to just distill what the game what the concept is yes Yeah yeah
00:05:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
So are you guys reacting to like scale, like just some so many of something?
00:05:07
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
00:05:14
Phantom Libtard
It's like Warhammer 40k.
00:05:17
slimeballsteve
40K, yeah.
00:05:18
Phantom Libtard
It's like 40k on 40k on 40k Chris.
00:05:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
40%.
00:05:22
Brother Devon
on 40 millimeters.
00:05:24
Phantom Libtard
That's 120k for Warhammer 120k.
00:05:24
Brother Devon
yeah
00:05:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
Nothing but the best, 120%.
00:05:26
Brother Devon
Yeah. Yeah.
00:05:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
40K.
00:05:30
Brother Devon
But, uh, no, I, uh, but I've been playing it. I've tried all three modes. Uh, although apparently online connection was a bit spotty this, this weekend.
00:05:41
slimeballsteve
Yeah, my my game where I try to do PV when it like, which is kind of cool.
00:05:41
Phantom Libtard
It's a bit spotty.
00:05:47
slimeballsteve
You were explaining this before the podcast, but the game will make you do like some campaign missions and then the campaign mission will be like, oh, we need to make sure the other squad goes in and takes care of this first before Target's unit can go in and do this.
00:06:00
slimeballsteve
So like you can play that squad doing that mission.
00:06:04
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, that's cool.
00:06:05
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
00:06:05
Brother Devon
Yeah. And.
00:06:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
So is it like a just like one squad is doing like a distraction while the other squad can go in?
00:06:11
Brother Devon
I mean, that was like the first of them, and I think there's like six or seven of these like kind of co-op missions. And yeah, so it was like I had to go save this um tech priest. Who like refused to leave his his like post or whatever, but also I had to like help like launch this fucking virus bomb, essentially, ah with this other squad as like a distraction to thin out the the hordes of the Tiernids in this particular sector of the planet.
00:06:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
Exterminatus.
00:06:47
Brother Devon
So then like this three man squad of, you know, a heavy, you know, I played it as a heavy weapons guy, which was a lot of fun, but yeah.
00:06:57
slimeballsteve
I did tactical the first time because like my brain didn't really like decipher the units.
00:06:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh my God.
00:07:03
Brother Devon
And not like I like sucked. I wasn't like super comfortable with it. But yeah, I like played it. And just there's this guy that was clear. He was like already like level 20.
00:07:14
slimeballsteve
Oh, you had one of those guys.
00:07:15
Brother Devon
I was like, fucking all right, cool. And he was just jump packing with this thunder hammer, just wiping everything out.
00:07:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, Thunderhopper's in the gate?
00:07:21
Brother Devon
But they are six, six, six, six. Oh, yeah.
00:07:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh boy.
00:07:23
Brother Devon
And so like we're doing all that stuff. And then ah near like at the end of it, It's like, oh, so ah they're just going to assault. You know, you got to like.
00:07:36
Brother Devon
line up the the gun, the big gun or something before it happens. And then you're waiting for the thing to charge up. So you have to fend off this assault. And it's just in the background is just tearing.
00:07:48
Phantom Libtard
Thank
00:07:49
Brother Devon
It's just running across. And then when it's like, OK, defend your spot, like you see all the tuner, it's turning run towards you and they do that cool thing where they run up against the walls and they just start climbing and.
00:07:51
Phantom Libtard
you.
00:07:57
slimeballsteve
Hmm.
00:08:02
slimeballsteve
They do the World War Z thing where they all snack.
00:08:04
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:08:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, goody. I like that.
00:08:05
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:08:06
slimeballsteve
Hmm.
00:08:06
Brother Devon
And it's funny enough that is it's made by the guys who did the World War Z game where they did the stacking thing, which is like.
00:08:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
You know, that's that's something I was missing with with Helldivers, because like there's that scene and in Starship Troopers where they're in that base and there's just like a field of those what are rack them what do they called?
00:08:21
Brother Devon
Mm hmm.
00:08:24
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:08:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
I can't remember anyway.
00:08:28
Brother Devon
Bugs.
00:08:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
Bugs. There's like a field of bugs coming at them and.
00:08:32
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:08:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's something that held every couldn't couldn't really not perfectly like the way that the visual Yeah, I'd say so
00:08:37
Brother Devon
Yeah, yeah. That was the one aspect that they they were definitely like lacking. Yeah, and this is like exactly that stuff, right? And and then there's like this little thing you turn it on and then it just shoots like a bunch of fire out and just wipe out like 1000 of them at once. And then there's, you know, 3000 more come in. And we were playing on like as the default difficulty. So it was like really You know, it's kind of like embarrassingly easy, but I did that.
00:09:07
Brother Devon
And then I did one PvP mode where i we just did like a capture and hold.
00:09:14
slimeballsteve
Uh-huh.
00:09:14
Brother Devon
And I sucked. I was the worst player on both teams. um But still, it was fun. And then I was like, I'm just going to start.
00:09:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
which which your loadout
00:09:25
Brother Devon
Well, my loadout, it didn't. So, Steve, I don't know what your situation was like, but like every time I joined either the PVP or the the co-op mode, I'm saying co-op like the the the operations mode, it kind of was just like, OK, you have 20 seconds to get in like and then you're going to play.
00:09:38
slimeballsteve
Hmm. Yeah.
00:09:46
Brother Devon
So like I didn't really have a chance to customize either my loadout or my look.
00:09:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
What's your loadout, Devin?
00:09:53
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
00:09:53
Brother Devon
So I was just getting like the default everything, which was like, Oh, okay. Or like whatever I could fit in in the 20 seconds. So I'm assuming there's a way to get in there and then just like, you can set all that stuff up before you, I guess become like an active player.
00:10:08
slimeballsteve
Yes, ah there is, um you know that part where you're walking and those two bombs were like blocking that pathway and the one guy was like kind of yelling at that guy and he was like, get these out of here.
00:10:09
Brother Devon
ah
00:10:19
Brother Devon
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:10:20
slimeballsteve
There's a part where that clears up and it just becomes like one of the, I guess it's a library and I kind of forget there their names. um Dude, um I'm sorry, dude.
00:10:28
Brother Devon
no sorry It was a tech priest.
00:10:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
A custodian?
00:10:31
Brother Devon
It was probably a tech priest yelling at the servitors.
00:10:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's a custodian.
00:10:32
Phantom Libtard
Peace.
00:10:32
slimeballsteve
Yeah, as a tech priest. um
00:10:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's a good a custodial artist.
00:10:36
slimeballsteve
But like he comes down in like one of the chairs and he's like, hey, you can like figure out like your loadouts and stuff here. And ah that's where I like went in and I was like spending points. And it's cool because it's like you spend points and you can like pick which chapters you kind of want to like spend points into if you want to kind of like, expect yourself to be like a certain um like space marine chapter. Or you can also do your like weapon loadouts there too, which um
00:10:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
Steve, you mentioned you were, you chose Space Wolf. What are the options?
00:11:04
slimeballsteve
There's a lot. um And then there's also like go nuts. There's definitely like a go nuts, like create your own custom chapter.
00:11:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
So I could be a death guard if I wanted to, right?
00:11:13
slimeballsteve
You could be, it looks like you can be anybody.
00:11:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
Nah, I'm just kidding. You can't be in there. They're bad guys.
00:11:18
slimeballsteve
I saw, I mean, you could paint your models to look like, yeah.
00:11:19
Brother Devon
You can set up a your chaos. Yeah, you can set up a traitor.
00:11:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, really?
00:11:23
Brother Devon
Well, in the PVP mode, right?
00:11:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
No shit.
00:11:25
Brother Devon
Yeah, you can be.
00:11:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, and PVP. I see, I see, I see. Okay.
00:11:28
Brother Devon
I think.
00:11:29
slimeballsteve
But it it looks like they just like let you go nuts with that stuff.
00:11:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
I wanna be a stinky boy, you know what I mean?
00:11:35
slimeballsteve
but it it is cool. It is cool seeing and like all the chapters and I think they broke them out by like which books they're from. Cause I, there was like the first like chapters and then there was like four or five pages showing like each chapter.
00:11:50
slimeballsteve
So that those might be like which are the chapters and like which runs of like current ah space Marine.
00:11:56
Brother Devon
What the fuck are you talking about?
00:11:58
slimeballsteve
Like, you know how there's like,
00:11:59
Brother Devon
You're saying chat like.
00:12:01
slimeballsteve
um I keep saying chapters, I'm sorry.
00:12:02
Brother Devon
You're talking about books and chapters.
00:12:03
slimeballsteve
You know how there has been like iterations, you know how there have been iterations of the game?
00:12:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh boy.
00:12:08
slimeballsteve
Like it'll be like Warhammer 40k, this will be like their like fifth or sixth book or whatever.
00:12:17
slimeballsteve
i'm talking I'm talking about like the actual game.
00:12:19
Brother Devon
OK.
00:12:19
slimeballsteve
How like they keep like updating the game. Like you know how D and&D has like
00:12:24
Brother Devon
All right. You're talking about like the different chapters, the different like the ultra rings, the blood angels, but the black.
00:12:29
slimeballsteve
Yes. Yes. They have them. I think they have them split up by like, you know, like these are the, these are the chapters that came out when the game first released. And then here's that are like, you know, new ones and stuff like that.
00:12:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, I see what you're saying.
00:12:41
Brother Devon
Yeah. Well, there's things called like foundings and stuff like that.
00:12:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Ah.
00:12:44
Brother Devon
There's like a sec.
00:12:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
So you you saw ultramarines and you were like too basic, right?
00:12:45
Brother Devon
There's successor chapters.
00:12:49
slimeballsteve
I mean, I remember when I was like, ultra Marines are neat. And Devin was like, ha ha ha. You idiot. You basic. You enjoy your pumpkin spice.
00:12:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
What about Grey Knight? Can he be a Grey Knight?
00:13:01
slimeballsteve
I think so.
00:13:02
Brother Devon
cannot be great. I'll tell you that right now.
00:13:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, really?
00:13:04
slimeballsteve
There's a lot, man.
00:13:05
Brother Devon
I mean, you could probably get a great night color scheme, but like in terms of.
00:13:05
slimeballsteve
There's a lot, man.
00:13:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
Okay, the actual chapter.
00:13:10
Brother Devon
That's like a different thing. Yeah, that's it. I mean, that's like if you were like, I want to be a custodians. You fucking idiots.
00:13:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
I do.
00:13:17
Brother Devon
Guys, come on.
00:13:17
slimeballsteve
I don't
00:13:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'd love to be a custodian.
00:13:21
Brother Devon
yeah i bet Yeah.
00:13:21
slimeballsteve
think he'd be custodian.
00:13:22
Brother Devon
Yeah, I wish you were all worthy janitors.
00:13:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
Be a great custodian.
00:13:26
slimeballsteve
It's cool though, it is it makes you feel like, you know how Helldivers is like, you're you're fighting this big bug war but you're a clumsy bumpkin and you're gonna die a lot?
00:13:37
slimeballsteve
This is like, what if you were fighting that war but you were like a big ass, just piece of meat.
00:13:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
You got big ass meat.
00:13:43
slimeballsteve
You're slapping your meaty arms against a bunch of bugs.
00:13:43
Brother Devon
Yeah, just murdering shit.
00:13:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
Slap that meat.
00:13:48
Brother Devon
And I mean, you know, I'm I'm a few hours in, but so far it has not gotten old that when I parry and I just stick my arm up and I just catch a tear in it and this fucking don't get into the ground.
00:14:01
slimeballsteve
The choke-slam animation is awesome.
00:14:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
Feels good.
00:14:02
Brother Devon
Dude, it looks like because there's these parry attacks, right?
00:14:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
Juice.
00:14:06
Brother Devon
And, um you know, the bigger enemies, you're just doing like a parry. But with the smaller like enemies, like like literally, if it's like a little blue icon and if you hit it on time, you'll like just chop them in half in midair or you'll catch them and just like rip them apart or slam them into the fucking paste.
00:14:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
Mmm. Slam him.
00:14:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's cool.
00:14:26
Brother Devon
And it always feels good to do that. And yeah.
00:14:29
slimeballsteve
i I forget, but um do all the enemies kind of have like their own unique like animations for those?
00:14:38
Brother Devon
Um, I mean, for the most part, like the, the, the warriors, right? The 200 warriors, which is like the big ones that like, when you kill them, they kill everybody else.
00:14:46
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
00:14:48
Brother Devon
There's like four or five. And then I think there's weapons specific. Like there's like two or three versions of like the chain sword kill two or three versions of the power sword kill and stuff like that.
00:14:52
slimeballsteve
OK.
00:14:55
slimeballsteve
Hmm.
00:14:59
Brother Devon
Um, and it seems like the same with the, um, the thousand sun Marines, uh, the rubric Marines, uh, as we're called,
00:15:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
So Devin, what do you think of what do you think of the story? How's that capturing you?
00:15:10
Brother Devon
Um, I I mean, I kind of dig it ah right now. They're very much tying into the first game at this point because you do play the same character.
00:15:23
Brother Devon
And I think it's a it's a I mean, I'm I'm glad like you're playing as Titus.
00:15:25
slimeballsteve
Spoilers
00:15:31
Brother Devon
But like the fact that in the game, there's no real like this is what happened for a game that came out 14 years ago.
00:15:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
There's no, there's no like this.
00:15:40
Brother Devon
whatever it was.
00:15:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, really? Nothing.
00:15:42
Brother Devon
No, no. So it's just like, hey, I hope you watched a YouTube video that says this is what you need to know.
00:15:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, that's good to know.
00:15:48
Brother Devon
Yeah, I would definitely recommend that because there's a pretty big plot point that just popped up and it was like, oh, what, the what, what the hell is going on? But what is interesting, and this is kind of chunky deep lore, which are I like is So they're they explain how Titus went from a standard of starties, like a first born starties to a primaris marine, which is like a whole thing. But then his new squad ah are there are like originals, primaris marines. And they're like, hey, this guy's over 200 years old. Like there's no way he was a primaris like
00:16:36
Brother Devon
He must have been a firstborn first born first. Then one guy is like lowkey salty as hell that Titus is your new like a lieutenant because it seemed like he was next in line.
00:16:45
slimeballsteve
He asks a lot of questions.
00:16:47
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:16:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
Ah, I see.
00:16:48
Brother Devon
And he's like, oh, that's fucking cool, I guess. And then, you know, there's there's some interesting, the lower implications about Primaris and first born.
00:16:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
But Titus was born, was born for that position, right? Like more so than that guy. He said he was the first boy.
00:17:01
Brother Devon
I mean, yeah, I mean, you know, like, well, Titus was a captain. And then he was demoted when, yeah.
00:17:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
I remember that. That was in the first game, right?
00:17:09
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
00:17:10
Brother Devon
Yeah, exactly. And he was demoted and they're like, well, you're a left-handed now.
00:17:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
I do remember that.
00:17:14
Brother Devon
Cause that's how they pronounce it.
00:17:15
slimeballsteve
They thought he was, um, they thought he was, uh, yeah.
00:17:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
He's a renegade cop. He's the cop that nobody believes.
00:17:20
slimeballsteve
Cause he was like, he was kind of like questioning things in that first game. If I remember correctly, right.
00:17:24
Brother Devon
Yeah. Yeah. He was, he was, uh, the, the Codex of Startes is basically the rule book of which All Marines typically follow, all terrains literally wrote the book.
00:17:38
Brother Devon
So they're like the most asshole, like asinine about the whole thing.
00:17:43
slimeballsteve
Hmm.
00:17:43
Brother Devon
And there's that guy in the first game. He's like, this doesn't support Dakota to startings.
00:17:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, he was like, he was like the chief of police where he's like, God damn it, you got my sciatica acting up.
00:17:49
Brother Devon
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
00:17:52
slimeballsteve
Eh.
00:17:52
MERLINCHESTNUT
You're causing so much goddamn damage in downtown.
00:17:55
Brother Devon
look Yeah.
00:17:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
Commissions breathing down my neck.
00:17:57
Brother Devon
So sort yeah, yeah. So there's that guy, right? And that guy kind of like ratchew out at the end of the first game, which is why Titus is in the death watch in the beginning of the game. um But in terms of just like overall lore, there's some interesting stuff going on with primaries and firstborns. It's a whole thing that I will not get into on this.
00:18:23
Brother Devon
Podcast today because it will be five hours long, but I
00:18:27
Phantom Libtard
No, let's go. um I want it all.
00:18:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah continue
00:18:29
slimeballsteve
Come on, sell us, Nevin, sell us on it.
00:18:30
Phantom Libtard
and Unleash it.
00:18:31
Brother Devon
Refuse I refuse I refuse All I'm saying is Primaris Marines are definitely different than first board of stardies and when the Primaris Marines were brought in There was a lot of hesitancy
00:18:31
Phantom Libtard
Unleash it, Evan.
00:18:46
Brother Devon
about what the fuck's going on with these guys. Why are they are they replacing us? This is kind of fucked in the primaries. Marines on their end don't feel like, you know, their their chapter, their own chapter, trust them and all that stuff, because they are kind of bigger and better and more efficient Marines at the end of the day.
00:18:52
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, continue.
00:19:05
Brother Devon
ah They're just like design better. You know, think like universe soldier.
00:19:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
I see they're getting their obsolete.
00:19:13
Brother Devon
ah Yeah, and there's some cool stuff in the lore with certain characters that are like Brother they're watering us down These guys are just ultra Marines in a different color Or like these aren't like our saviors. These are our replacements All that fun stuff and then if you want to look at it in the real meta sense all the first-born Marines are getting phased out in terms of the models and the units and
00:19:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, in like the actual game.
00:19:41
Brother Devon
So, yeah, yes, everybody's like, what the fuck? Because, you know, you get you get attached to that stuff and like you get attached to, you know, the traditional space marine helmet.
00:19:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah.
00:19:55
Brother Devon
Well, the Primaris Marine is like a different space marine helmet. And I'm not saying like.
00:19:58
slimeballsteve
Uh oh.
00:20:00
Brother Devon
I'm just saying aesthetically, that is like one of the big key differences, right? It's like if you look at a traditional space marine helmet that you've known that you've known, you know, in the 90s or 2000.
00:20:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
I mean, does it still look like, like a knight settlement? Like a knight, like medieval knight?
00:20:17
Brother Devon
Kind of like it's interesting because the first you guys got me going, but um
00:20:25
Phantom Libtard
i what We wanted it, Devin, so keep going.
00:20:26
Brother Devon
No, no, listen, listen, I'll say this space Marines, the first born space Marines, they're monks, right? They're just battle monks that are in fucking tank armor. And they just are just, you know, they pray and they have chaplains and they do all this stuff. And they just, you know, they're very like religiously giant meccas.
00:20:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
So you said Primaris Marine Helmet. What's the other? What's the first one?
00:20:51
Brother Devon
I think like, uh, uh, I think it's MK eight helmet. Let's see. Okay.
00:20:57
Phantom Libtard
Mortal Kombat 8, Mark 8.
00:21:00
Brother Devon
Space Marine helmet.
00:21:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'm just trying to get a look and see what's different because.
00:21:04
Brother Devon
Yeah. Right. So, so yeah, if you Google MK eight space Marine helmet, right? That's like the traditional space Marine helmet that like we're all pretty much used to.
00:21:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
OK.
00:21:16
Brother Devon
Like that was the original, like on that, This is like the one that most people are familiar with. And then if you Google Primaris, P-R-I-N-A-R-I-S marine helmet, it looks different.
00:21:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah.
00:21:30
Brother Devon
And they're just, that's like a ah key indicator of like, okay, this is a Primaris marine versus, you know, a traditional stardust helmet.
00:21:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hmm.
00:21:41
Brother Devon
And some people like the new design. Some people hate the new design. You know, it's ah it's it's interesting.
00:21:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's really just the vents in the front, right, that are different?
00:21:51
Brother Devon
Yeah, but like that old school design is is very, you know, it was a big deal was what I would.
00:21:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, this is okay. Wait, I'm seeing one. That's okay. That's a lot different now because it's like the head is thinner.
00:22:06
Brother Devon
Yeah, but like basically the primary Marines are like more tactical.
00:22:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
And there's like a big weird thing on top.
00:22:11
Brother Devon
Like almost think of a moment as like Special Forces and stuff and like so you're losing a little bit of that character. when it comes to, you know, like when it comes to that kind of vibe and design and some people are not fans of that change in direction ah that they're going in.
00:22:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
Okay.
00:22:30
Brother Devon
But anyway.
00:22:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
I mean, isn't it just more of the same, right? Like they're just doubling down on the whole aesthetic.
00:22:39
Brother Devon
Yeah, I mean, like, yes, at the end of the day, like that is pretty much what they're doing.
00:22:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's what I drink.
00:22:44
Brother Devon
They're just updating the look a little bit. And it's not to say that they don't have models that don't have like that traditional space wearing helmet that you're used to. But, ah you know, it's just people are like, oh, I miss my first born.
00:22:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
What I do?
00:22:56
Phantom Libtard
now it's what it that it's what the devin do miss it might have been might have recorded on your it might record on there
00:22:57
Brother Devon
It's my first born. Right.
00:23:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
Devin, you're kind of cutting in and out a little bit, but I got a little bit of what you said there.
00:23:03
Brother Devon
Yeah. Am I right?
00:23:07
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
00:23:08
Brother Devon
Oh no. Am I better now?
00:23:10
slimeballsteve
It it's it's it's had run the end of what you were saying really quick.
00:23:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah.
00:23:15
slimeballsteve
So he sounded like you were on crack at that moment.
00:23:16
MERLINCHESTNUT
I was like.
00:23:19
Brother Devon
Pretty much was, I think.
00:23:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think you said it that fast. I think you said it that fast.
00:23:23
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:23:23
slimeballsteve
He just got so excited.
00:23:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
gentlemen
00:23:25
Brother Devon
Blah, blah, blah. Yeah, yeah. Wake up!
00:23:29
slimeballsteve
Grab the makeup.
00:23:30
Brother Devon
Spacer governments are going to complicate it!
00:23:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, um, I gotta say, uh, when old, uh, daddy Galani gets ahold of his big money bag, he's going to throw a little bit to space Marine too, because, uh, I definitely want to play as well.
00:23:43
Brother Devon
Mm hmm.
00:23:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
It looks a lot like it looks great. It looks fucking great.
00:23:49
Brother Devon
and Yeah.
00:23:51
slimeballsteve
I like when you shoot your gun.
00:23:52
MERLINCHESTNUT
No shit. Really?
00:23:55
slimeballsteve
There's there's a thing where like you do a certain you do a heavy attack, and if you hit somebody, it like puts a little target on them, and if you like pull like your shoot button, it does this like super intense close up of you pointing your gun at them, and you just blast them away.
00:24:12
Brother Devon
Yeah, like, so like, think of like, when Blade shot that guy in the Deadpool and Wolverine.
00:24:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, okay. I see what you're saying.
00:24:19
Brother Devon
He like does one of those.
00:24:19
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
00:24:21
Brother Devon
It's like a weird zoom in and he just shoots their face off.
00:24:23
slimeballsteve
and you get health from it.
00:24:25
Brother Devon
And it feels good every time.
00:24:26
slimeballsteve
Mm-hmm.
00:24:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
That sounds cool.
00:24:28
Brother Devon
um But yeah, no space wearing two rules. I'm very into it. And basically the best thing I've ever played in my life.
00:24:40
Brother Devon
So, of course, of course.
00:24:40
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah. Okay. That makes sense.
00:24:42
slimeballsteve
Have you played Eshrobot yet?
00:24:42
Brother Devon
Uh, no, I have not. Uh, that is, I do want to play it. Like I actually really want to play it. Especially because it, uh, I don't know if you guys know this.
00:24:54
Brother Devon
I don't know if you guys have been on fantasy critic lately or not. Uh, but your boy snagged Astro bot and now you boys in first place. I'm basically once again, the king of video games.
00:25:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oof.
00:25:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
Wow, how do you you went you won last year too, right?
00:25:06
Brother Devon
I am the uncrowned King.
00:25:07
Phantom Libtard
Well, well, I put up I put up that meme, Devin of of Jason Momoa creeping up on Superman.
00:25:08
Brother Devon
Oh yeah.
00:25:17
Brother Devon
ah yeah well It's fine. It's fine. We can't all be winners, you know.
00:25:21
Phantom Libtard
I'll post it and I'll post it and shit talk.
00:25:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
what do you What do you got left, John? The year's ending, babe. but do you What do you got it in the tank?
00:25:26
Phantom Libtard
Flight Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is slated to release in November.
00:25:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah
00:25:34
Brother Devon
So John didn't get any new games since the initial draft. And now he's left with peanuts.
00:25:43
slimeballsteve
Dude that's a strat
00:25:44
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, but I have yeah, but I have money I made a couple I just made I just made a couple bits now that the whole thing is the what really sucks about this whole system is that you only you can only
00:25:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, but those are airplane peanuts, because he's got flight simulator.
00:25:47
Brother Devon
Yeah, but you have You have money. You have money to buy, ah you know, McDonald's trash bag fries. like That's what you got. That's what you have all on offer. OK.
00:26:05
Phantom Libtard
You can only bid during a certain time during the week and then it locks you out of bidding for like three days. It's a really weird system.
00:26:14
Brother Devon
Well, it's like the bids don't become public or something, right?
00:26:19
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, and after they become public, then you can't put in any new bids for any other games like it's stupid.
00:26:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hmm.
00:26:25
Phantom Libtard
So you only have until.
00:26:25
Brother Devon
Well, you could put in i've I've been on multiple games at once.
00:26:29
Phantom Libtard
After Thursday.
00:26:31
Brother Devon
Well, like if I make my bid, right.
00:26:33
Phantom Libtard
No, you know, it doesn't let you it doesn't let you from Thursday to Friday. You're not allowed to bid on anything.
00:26:38
Brother Devon
All right, but I'm saying like if i I can make like five bids on Wednesday, if I want to make.
00:26:39
slimeballsteve
Right, yeah.
00:26:43
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, but what I'm saying is like. What if I only have time to look at this between Thursday and Saturday, you know?
00:26:50
Brother Devon
Let's say.
00:26:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
steve where are you in all this
00:26:53
Brother Devon
I mean, that's.
00:26:53
slimeballsteve
a Let's just say Space Marine ah messed me up a little bit.
00:26:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
Where's... Get it now.
00:26:58
Brother Devon
Yeah. So Steve counter picked space rain.
00:27:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, O'Deary.
00:27:01
Brother Devon
and So home is going to lose like 12 points.
00:27:02
Phantom Libtard
Yeah. yeah
00:27:06
slimeballsteve
Dude, i was back I was banking on this game not coming out. I was putting Space Marine 2 in the same column that Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines 2 was in.
00:27:16
Brother Devon
Well, Steve was like, Hey, uh, yeah, I just, uh,
00:27:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
Wow. Holy shit.
00:27:23
Phantom Libtard
And how does it calculate how does it calculate the points that you get with a score?
00:27:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
And you said...
00:27:27
Brother Devon
So any points over 70 get you one point. So 70 to 89 will get you one point. And then any points 90 or above, double your points.
00:27:40
Brother Devon
So for Astrobot, I got a score of 95.
00:27:41
Phantom Libtard
oh
00:27:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
I will your pleasure.
00:27:44
Brother Devon
So I got 30 points for that. But like this other game, like nine souls got 84. So I got 14 points from that. So.
00:27:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
Nine souls?
00:27:57
Brother Devon
I got a.
00:27:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
What the fuck is that?
00:27:59
slimeballsteve
It's like a indie game with a fox.
00:27:59
Brother Devon
I don't know, it's just some fucking game I picked.
00:28:02
slimeballsteve
Dude, Devin doesn't care about the games he picks.
00:28:02
Brother Devon
Just some game I picked because I'm fucking awesome because I'm awesome at picking games.
00:28:05
slimeballsteve
Devin jevin just slaps meat into the furnace and just lets it roast until it gets him a dub.
00:28:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
oh He's got the he's got the crown But John's got flight simulator coming out soon And I'm gonna give it a good review because I love that motherfucker.
00:28:16
Brother Devon
Yeah, well, the thing was, so this is what I and.
00:28:18
slimeballsteve
He does, he does.
00:28:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, yeah There go
00:28:23
Brother Devon
Listen, the only reason, the only reason I'm really bragging about this is because John basically ruled this entire competition with an iron fist by lazily picking, by auto drafting.
00:28:33
Phantom Libtard
Not looking at it, I just uh, I just put in a couple bits so see
00:28:38
Brother Devon
Yeah. Yeah. All right. Good. Good. But, but basically up until this week.
00:28:39
Phantom Libtard
The thing is, I have all the money left. Nobody has any money left.
00:28:43
Brother Devon
Yeah. Yeah. But up until this week, John, just like fucking. had like his his auto draft to go and he was clearly beating everybody.
00:28:54
Brother Devon
And it was a knife in my chest until I hit big Vasterbot. Because as we all know, hard work beats talent and talent doesn't work hard.
00:29:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'm gonna be honest with you, Devin. Flight simulator, I'm gonna give it at least a nine on my site.
00:29:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
At least, at least a nine.
00:29:10
Brother Devon
Now, that being said, listen, I am definitely counting my chickens because Also on my list is Silent Hill 2 Remake, which is, you know, I'm rolling the dice of that one.
00:29:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, good for you.
00:29:23
Phantom Libtard
I mean, that i mean that's it that's like that's a gamble, right? So it's got to be what? It's got to be over 70 for you to get points.
00:29:29
Brother Devon
That's a, that's a big game. Yeah. So, so for example, ah like a squirrel with a gun, Sten got this game squirrel with a gun, scored a 66, so he lost four points.
00:29:34
Phantom Libtard
It'll be over 70, right?
00:29:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
ah
00:29:46
Brother Devon
Uh, Cassina Frank stone rain picked that one. Uh, the game that Steve was like, this game is a lot of fun. I'm really enjoying it. Uh, he, he has, well, he was actually negative one points.
00:29:58
Brother Devon
Uh, now he's down to zero points for that because it only scored a 70.
00:30:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
So you got a point from Stallone.
00:30:03
Brother Devon
He got zero points for that. Yeah.
00:30:05
slimeballsteve
Yeah Frank Stallone got nothing yeah he ended up just a wussig A
00:30:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
Frank Stallone got nothing?
00:30:08
Brother Devon
Yeah. Well, I mean, it got a 70. But for him that that netted him only, you know, zero points, which is better than the negative two that it was like two days ago.
00:30:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, wow.
00:30:17
slimeballsteve
90 will get you 20 points Yeah
00:30:20
Brother Devon
Exactly. Yeah.
00:30:21
MERLINCHESTNUT
So Devon, how much are you leading John by?
00:30:22

00:30:44
slimeballsteve
The running out of games.
00:30:48
Brother Devon
Now, granted, I don't know what he bid on. But the issue that John's running into is that, you know, a lot of the good shit's already been picked. So John's got to put his hard hat on.
00:30:57
Phantom Libtard
um I'll tell you you want me to tell you what I bid on I on bid on Dead Rising and um Monument Valley 3 is coming out Which is a sequel to a very highly well, they like shadow dropped it so nobody really knew it was coming out until like what a couple weeks ago Yeah Steve's full

00:31:40
MERLINCHESTNUT
He never wins those.
00:31:44
slimeballsteve
You think I'm gonna drop?
00:31:46
Brother Devon
Yeah, space ring two hasn't.
00:31:46
slimeballsteve
Space Marine hasn't hit me, but you know what? Space Marine has lost a point since I last checked. It was the same score as Helldivers 2. It is now one point lower than Helldivers 2.
00:31:56
Brother Devon
It's bullshit, you're going to have like 20 points by the end of this.
00:32:00
slimeballsteve
You know, I'm gonna have more points.
00:32:01
Brother Devon
Which, yeah, which actually it's still going to put you.
00:32:02
slimeballsteve
I'm gonna have even more points by the end of this.
00:32:05
Brother Devon

Okay. The winner gets the pick. So, Devin, you get to pick the butt tattoo. Oh, boy.
00:33:14
Brother Devon
Because again, I'm talking a lot of shit, but I could literally.
00:33:16
MERLINCHESTNUT
What if it's Titus's face and his mouth is the butthole?
00:33:18
slimeballsteve
Oh.
00:33:21
slimeballsteve
It's just tight ass.
00:33:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Titus! Yes!
00:33:25
slimeballsteve
Yeah, there you go.
00:33:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
You would love that, Devin.
00:33:28
Brother Devon
Yeah, and ah real quick, though. um I did start the quarry after I played Robocop.
00:33:37
slimeballsteve
Mm hmm.
00:33:39
Brother Devon
Robocop, a lot of fun. I think I talked about that last week.
00:33:40
Phantom Libtard
What's the quarry?
00:33:42
Brother Devon
The quarry is the game by the guys that made Until Dawn. So it was the game. They made a bunch of games after that, but yeah, they made the quarry and then their next game after that or their next, I guess.
00:33:50
slimeballsteve
Rank stone.
00:33:52
Phantom Libtard
and
00:33:55
Phantom Libtard
they like the blum They're like the Blumhouse of video games.
00:33:59
Brother Devon
Honestly, kind of, yeah.
00:33:59
slimeballsteve
Yeah, they kinda are. You're not wrong.
00:34:01
Brother Devon
Yeah, so and then their newest game was the casting of Frank Stone, which Steve is currently playing.
00:34:06
slimeballsteve
I beat that twice.
00:34:07
Brother Devon
Yeah, twice.
00:34:08
slimeballsteve
I beat it twice. i did I did one run and then I did another run.
00:34:12
Brother Devon
What's the what were the differences between your runs?
00:34:15
slimeballsteve
ah It's just who lives and dies at the end.
00:34:17
Brother Devon
Did you do? OK, you didn't do like a I'm going to do a shithead run.
00:34:22
slimeballsteve
I do wanna do that. I do still wanna do that. um the um Yes.
00:34:25
Brother Devon
Did everybody. All right. You don't get specifics, but.
00:34:29
slimeballsteve
I'm gonna get real specific.
00:34:31
Brother Devon
In your initial run, how many people died?
00:34:36
slimeballsteve
Two.
00:34:37
Brother Devon
Two. And then in your second run, did you save everyone?
00:34:44
slimeballsteve
More people died.
00:34:46
Brother Devon
Was that on purpose or were you?
00:34:47
slimeballsteve
ah Because I kind of wanted to see the other choices, and because of those other choices, I ate a lot of crap.
00:34:50
Brother Devon
ah Okay, okay. Okay, all right.
00:34:54
slimeballsteve
um the thing The thing though is, um the casting of Frank Stone is stow. Frank Stone is very much a game that I imagine people who are playing Dead by Daylight enjoy.
00:35:06
slimeballsteve
um I don't know if it's gonna be something that resonates with people who are not ah into like that Lauren stuff. um
00:35:15
Brother Devon
So, man, I saw those hooks and I got I was interested.
00:35:19
slimeballsteve
I mean, that's the thing. like It hard ties into that universe. um But like I can't imagine someone who has no idea what that game is, playing that and being like, oh, this is cool. You're probably like, what the hell? They don't explain anything? what Huh?
00:35:33
Brother Devon
Is Frank Stone a cool killer?
00:35:36
slimeballsteve
ah Frank Stone is neat. And it kind of, ah the casting of Frank Stone has kind of like a double meaning on it, where it is both a movie term, as well as a like actual like casting of like, um like you putting something into like a, like a, like a molt.
00:35:38
Brother Devon
OK.
00:35:55
Brother Devon
ah mol molten metal.
00:35:56
slimeballsteve
Yeah. So it is, it is kind of neat that they're, they're playing with that terminology, but um
00:36:02
Brother Devon
Okay.
00:36:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
Who is Frank Stone?
00:36:04
slimeballsteve
Frank Stone's just a metal worker who works in a steel mill, but also ah is a psycho serial killer who tries to kill a baby in the sixties.
00:36:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
Man I love that guy.
00:36:15
Brother Devon
Chris, he looks pretty cool.
00:36:16
slimeballsteve
Oh yeah.
00:36:17
Brother Devon
He has a cool little helmet.
00:36:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
Okay.
00:36:19
slimeballsteve
I would say this is a game that when it's $20, check it out.
00:36:19
Brother Devon
Oh, yeah, but
00:36:25
Brother Devon
Okay. But for you, uh, a DVD guy, you're like, you don't feel bad that you got a full price.
00:36:27
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
00:36:32
slimeballsteve
No, I don't feel bad. It was fun. It was fun. i yeah
00:36:34
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:36:35
slimeballsteve
It's definitely like big teasing into like future characters that could be in Dead by Daylight, but that's the Mega Man character, Metal Man.
00:36:41
Brother Devon
Okay.
00:36:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Metalman.
00:36:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, Metalman will be in it.
00:36:46
Brother Devon
but
00:36:47
slimeballsteve
But I still think Quarry and Until Dawn are gonna be like the more um the more memorable of the super massive games.
00:36:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
You think the story in Until Dawn is a little better, it's a little tighter?
00:36:57
Brother Devon
alright
00:37:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
Because I think most of those games, they kind of ah really depend on the story and the characters, right?
00:37:04
slimeballsteve
i think
00:37:08
slimeballsteve
Yeah, I think i think it's it might be a little more fun.
00:37:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's all it is.
00:37:12
slimeballsteve
um You know, you got like yeah got like eight monsters gunning you down in it until dawn.
00:37:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
Okay. there Yeah.
00:37:17
Brother Devon
Alright.
00:37:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yes. It's a lot of problems.
00:37:18
Brother Devon
Jeez.
00:37:19
slimeballsteve
quaria Quarry, I don't remember. Quarry has like a few, like there is a wolf man in Quarry, if I remember correctly, right?
00:37:25
Brother Devon
i I don't so I in my time of the quarry because obviously I i put it down from space marine, but I'm still doing like the like we just got to the part where we all made a bunch of bad decisions like let's just stay here after dark.
00:37:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
Whoa.
00:37:40
slimeballsteve
o
00:37:41
Brother Devon
ah So like nothing.
00:37:44
Phantom Libtard
but
00:37:45
Brother Devon
they We play truth.
00:37:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah
00:37:45
slimeballsteve
the
00:37:46
Brother Devon
We're playing truth or dare around the fire pit. And then everybody's getting mad at everybody and then split up. So I'm assuming people are going to bodies. We're going to start dropping soon is what I think was going to happen.
00:37:55
slimeballsteve
Hmm Ted Raimi's in that too
00:37:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
What did somebody know?
00:37:59
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:37:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
Is he the wolfman?
00:37:59
Brother Devon
Yeah. Ted Raimi's in there. It was kind of cool. I was I was playing with Jenny and I was like, Jenny, what should I say? And then she was just making every bad decision.
00:38:09
Phantom Libtard
Ha ha ha!
00:38:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
and Perfect.
00:38:10
Brother Devon
And I was like, yes, this is
00:38:11
slimeballsteve
Doesn't that have a a die together mode?
00:38:14
Brother Devon
and does, but, you know, I'm just sitting there with her washing and I'm like, Jenny, do I want to be flirty or do I want to be an asshole?
00:38:18
slimeballsteve
I feel like that's a good game to like sit down.
00:38:21
Brother Devon
She's like.
00:38:22
slimeballsteve
like
00:38:24
Brother Devon
Yeah, you know, it's a nice little. ah Yeah, it it's a cool game. I'm into it.
00:38:30
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
00:38:31
Brother Devon
But ah yeah, so core is good.
00:38:33
Phantom Libtard
yeah yeah
00:38:33
Brother Devon
ah Still trucking through Fargo. You just watch the puppet episode. Or the doll episode, I guess.
00:38:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
The doll episode.
00:38:43
Brother Devon
Fargo season five the Yeah, yeah Literally watched out like right before I jumped on and then ah I saw Yeah, and then I saw ah I watched Beetlejuice Beetlejuice This weekend so I'll Beetlejuice a Beetlejuice
00:38:44
slimeballsteve
The doll episode?
00:38:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh!
00:38:45
slimeballsteve
Oh.
00:38:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
Margot.
00:38:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
God, what a show that is!
00:38:58
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, yeah.
00:38:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, cool.
00:38:59
slimeballsteve
You did? You saw Beetlejuice?
00:39:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
I hear it's not that bad. I hear it's not as awful as people.
00:39:05
Brother Devon
It is an interesting movie. I said somewhere somewhere on the discord, I said it is one of the most self-indulgent movies I've ever seen in my life.
00:39:18
Brother Devon
But despite that, yeah, no, no, but it's like Tim Burton going like, I don't care at all.
00:39:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, it's a Tim Burton movie, I see.
00:39:25
Brother Devon
Like what's a plot line? Like, fuck you. I don't I don't give a shit. But like despite that, I still walked away from being like, I still really like really enjoyed that. like I still had a lot of fun with it.
00:39:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
Okay.
00:39:36
Brother Devon
But like like I'm actually convinced, Chris, you would hate this. like more than this might like If you saw this, you might be like, this I hate this movie more than any other movie this year.
00:39:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
um
00:39:50
Brother Devon
I was like, yeah, that's kind of what I think.
00:39:50
Phantom Libtard
I I don't I don't think that's shocking at all to be honest
00:39:54
Brother Devon
I mean, no, I think like, because most people are like, yeah,
00:39:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
Now How's Keenan and how's Michael Keenan that really depends if that if he's good I might not feel that way I like him quite a bit Yeah, okay She's always good man
00:39:59
Brother Devon
He's awesome, right? theres Yeah. Well, I mean, I think, to be honest, he does a he does a lot of heavy lifting, right? So the the best parts of the movie are Keaton, Catherine O'Hara, who I really kind of think should be nominated for this movie.
00:40:16
Brother Devon
She's so good at this. And I really liked Willem Dafoe in this.
00:40:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Wow see I mean you got some good ones there.
00:40:23
slimeballsteve
I love the carpet.
00:40:23
Brother Devon
He's a lot of fun. but
00:40:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
They're good actors
00:40:27
Brother Devon
Yeah, but like the movie itself is like it reads or it it views like Tim Burton was working on a Beetlejuice 2 script for like 10 years and he had all these drafts.
00:40:41
Brother Devon
And then he said, you know what? I'm just going to do every one of them. I don't care. And then. Like, honestly, it was it watched like ah like an American Horror Story season where there's a lot of interesting plots that then just fall off and die.
00:40:58
Brother Devon
It just rap like.
00:40:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hmm.
00:41:01
Brother Devon
Very like it was like narrative whiplash. It was like, oh, oh, oh, we're just done with that one. Okay.
00:41:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
See, the thing about Beetlejuice, what I think the original works so well is they don't linger on certain things like they just kind of give you a little.
00:41:08
Brother Devon
Sure. Why not?
00:41:13
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:41:17
Brother Devon
They definitely do not linger on the lot these. spot linesing
00:41:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, like that's I mean, it's like a quick little scene like. These are the ghosts that have been exercised and it ties into the end. Like it's very, everything ties in to the very end of the movie, of course, but they don't go too hard on the afterlife.
00:41:35
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:41:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like it's little vignette scenes.
00:41:40
Brother Devon
This is very there's a lot of afterlife in this, which is fine. Like I do like that. It's a very interesting part of, you know, the.
00:41:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
See a lot of sandworms.
00:41:53
Brother Devon
You do see some sandworms, ah but like the Monica Belushi who plays.
00:41:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's Beetlejuice Ride 1, a la, la Dune Part 2.
00:42:00
Brother Devon
No, he does not. He does not do that.
00:42:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
Damn it.
00:42:03
Brother Devon
Uh, but like, dude, there's just scenes where like, he's like Tim Burton's like, I want Beetlejuice to just tell this entire story, uh, with a very badly overdubbed Spanish like voice.
00:42:16
Brother Devon
Like we're just going to, he's just going to be speaking in Spanish and you're like, okay.
00:42:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, Jesus. That's rough.
00:42:20
Brother Devon
And then it happens like three times and you're like, why, why are we, why are we doing this?
00:42:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's not good.
00:42:26
Brother Devon
And then, uh, I don't try to think of the name of the song. Do you guys know? Remember the song MacArthur Park? It's the.
00:42:39
Brother Devon
OK, you know, the Weird Al song, the parody of Jurassic Park.
00:42:45
slimeballsteve
Yes.
00:42:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, of course.
00:42:46
Brother Devon
It's that song, right? That song is like an eight minute rock opera, basically. And Tim Burton's like, yeah I want that entire seven minute sequence just like in my movie.
00:42:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's empty.
00:42:59
Brother Devon
and It's just and like crazy shit's happening, but you're like Okay, okay, and it's Beetlejuice. So Beetlejuice is doing weird crazy random Beetlejuice type shit and it's entertaining ah but it's just You know, it's ah it's just very much he just did he's say I'm doing everything I want to do I don't I do not care I don't care.
00:43:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
empty
00:43:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's all style, no substance.
00:43:22
Brother Devon
Oh this character that you think is a big deal has three lines on the movie sure does and Is that problem going to be solved very quickly and randomly? Absolutely. Why not?
00:43:33
Brother Devon
Fuck it. I don't care. Like you're going to see it's Beetlejuice. And it seems like that was the case, because I think it made a second biggest opening of the year, I think.
00:43:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
Wow. Is it really hard?
00:43:48
Brother Devon
I don't think so, um because there's definitely there's one F bomb.
00:43:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
I can't remember. PG-13, right?
00:43:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
Okay, it's probably not.
00:43:55
Brother Devon
Uh, and then he, he, then he says fuck again, but it's literally bleeped out. Uh, which is, you know, done for comedic effect for sure.
00:44:05
Brother Devon
But, uh, I don't know. Um, I don't know. Yeah, it's, it's weird. I, I did just walk out and be like, yeah, I really liked that. Like I had a lot of, yeah, PG 13.
00:44:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
PG-13? Okay. Yeah, I mean that's, I think the original was too.
00:44:23
Brother Devon
Yeah, well, that may have been like PG at the time.
00:44:24
Phantom Libtard
Was it scary at all?
00:44:27
Brother Devon
No, no. Well, actually, so um there is a fun. ah
00:44:35
Phantom Libtard
was wednesday Was Wednesday good in it?
00:44:39
Brother Devon
Yes, she she was.
00:44:40
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, the original Beetlejuice PG.
00:44:43
Brother Devon
Yeah, but I think that was like before PG-13 was a thing.
00:44:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, it was.
00:44:45
slimeballsteve
Yeah, was that before template doom?
00:44:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
no 1988 no right temple doom came out before that yeah 84 temple doom came out 88 it's interesting
00:44:59
Brother Devon
I don't know, like I'm sure that stuff took a while to kind of get going, probably. But they so there's a very so the big kind of moving plot point here is Charles, played by Jeffrey Jones, dies.
00:45:10
slimeballsteve
That is interesting.
00:45:22
Brother Devon
But he's also in the movie
00:45:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
oh they they couldn't put that guy in there oh no okay okay
00:45:24
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
00:45:25
Brother Devon
know But he's also in the movie, a shocking amount, but they sidestep it in a very fun way. Because Jeffrey Jones is obviously not in the movie, but his character is, but it's, it's a lot of fun with how they do it. But that's like, it's pretty gory, like, it's, it can be pretty gory in the sense of not like scary, but like,
00:45:52
Brother Devon
It's a lot of just aortas shooting blood out everywhere for comedic effect type stuff.
00:45:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
Whoa.
00:45:58
Brother Devon
So I don't know. I don't know if the kids can handle that.
00:46:00
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'm definitely, I'm definitely gonna watch this. I'm just not gonna, you know, pay more than my streaming service than whatever it comes on.
00:46:04
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:46:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
You know what I mean? Like, I will watch this max.
00:46:08
slimeballsteve
Probably be Max.
00:46:08
Brother Devon
Oh, yeah.
00:46:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, it's gonna be max.
00:46:12
Brother Devon
Yeah, but ah not man.
00:46:13
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'm gonna see it.
00:46:13
Brother Devon
Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice. It's a it's a good old fuck for me.
00:46:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like, I'm not gonna watch the crow at all, right?
00:46:18
Phantom Libtard
Thank you.
00:46:21
slimeballsteve
Not until you're Galanium Crow.
00:46:21
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like, I don't even go out of here, crow.
00:46:22
Brother Devon
Chris, go watch the crow. Come on, just watch it.
00:46:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
I actually watched a ah breakdown about it on YouTube. And apparently, like about 60 to 70 percent of that movie is like a romance. Like they're building this. That's just like awful.
00:46:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's just like the the worst dialogue ever.
00:46:39
Brother Devon
Yeah, no, no, it's it's bad. Yeah, I saw it. It's really bad.
00:46:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, yeah, you saw that's right. You did see it.
00:46:45
Brother Devon
Yeah, and it's it's just stupid.
00:46:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
um
00:46:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's like they say it's it's so poorly written. There's what they say. There's one good scene. I think it's they said the highway scene. was pretty decent where you get yeah like they say it's visually cool but like anytime they talk in the movie they're like oh yeah it's bad it's no good and then I watched something about borderlands and they're like it is like they came out so close together that people are comparing them and they're like oh crows way better
00:46:56
Brother Devon
oh Oh, yeah, when he's like it's like he's initially trying to like kill these people, but. Yeah.
00:47:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
like Like everybody is unanimous.
00:47:21
Brother Devon
Well, really, dude,
00:47:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah. Like Borderlands is boring. That's what like everybody is saying.
00:47:26
Brother Devon
OK, I was going to say like there is a part of me that does kind of want to watch it. Borderlands, I mean, like.
00:47:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, yeah, I mean, because it's so bad. Sure.
00:47:35
Brother Devon
Yeah, yeah, I just heard so many terrible things about it.
00:47:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
Definitely. I feel the same way. Like I want to see why, you know, because like even with that IP does carry just
00:47:45
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:47:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
And, you know, like a ah a bare minimum of charm, how you could really make it so boring. That's really fascinating to me, but, um, not so much to the general public because I'm moving folk and bowl.
00:47:58
Brother Devon
Mhm.
00:48:04
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hey, you know what I learned actually to something really interesting. LA Romulus, that movie is doing great business. Uh, it's, it's particularly, uh, globally.
00:48:11
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:48:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
And I found out that China has been easing up their, their,
00:48:17
Brother Devon
Oh!
00:48:18
Phantom Libtard
China.
00:48:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
China has been easing up their their their censorship and There they allowed our rated No, I don't think it's because of their economies in the shitter So they're trying to build up as much money as they possibly can and they're allowing our rated movies to come to their movie theaters and Alien Romulus was one of the first Yes, yes, it was and that's why it's just making so much goddamn money
00:48:26
Phantom Libtard
Because a alien.
00:48:42
slimeballsteve
Really?
00:48:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's mostly because people are in China. This is like the first our rated movie. A lot of them are seeing Or at least are rated in a theater, you know, I'm sure they get like pirated copies of stuff but like yeah that that's gonna be a thing now moving forward where our rated movies are now gonna Be more of a global box office hit Absolutely, definitely
00:48:56
Brother Devon
OK. Yeah.
00:49:11
Brother Devon
So they might actually be successful.
00:49:16
MERLINCHESTNUT
And I think Deadpool Wolverine is just, you know, it's even more proof of the pudding, right?
00:49:16
Brother Devon
I mean.
00:49:21
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:49:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's just now everybody's gonna be making R rated movies, which is, I'm happy. um That makes me happy. I got no problem with that. um It'll be interesting too, because I think what will happen is you'll just get this huge dichotomy between ultra kitty kitty movies and super adult oriented films.
00:49:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
And I think a lot of PG-13 films that would originally have been popular aren't going to be as popular as they once were.
00:49:47
Brother Devon
yeah
00:49:53
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:49:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
um So you get movies like that Minecraft movie that's coming out, which is very much aimed to kids, like 1 million percent aimed at the children.
00:50:01
Brother Devon
Yeah. Do that, like, looks really like really bad.
00:50:06
slimeballsteve
Dude, I don't know who that's aimed. I feel like they're hoping they're going to get the Sonic the Hedgehog backlash, but for the entire movie.
00:50:15
Brother Devon
Dude, you know, you know, it's funny, you know, that like, perhaps I've treated you too harshly meme for like Thanos.
00:50:20
slimeballsteve
Mm-hmm.
00:50:21
Brother Devon
It's like, as soon as that came out, it was like me watching Borderlands and it's like, perhaps I've treated you too harshly.
00:50:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
a I just...
00:50:27
Brother Devon
Like, dude, maybe man, I don't know. This is, uh, this is pretty horrible. Um, that one. Yeah. Like, uh, I mean, I'm, I'm too ma sure emotionally mature to get mad about a Minecraft movie trailer.
00:50:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, like why would you get mad about it?
00:50:43
slimeballsteve
Mm hmm.
00:50:45
Brother Devon
But like, yeah, I saw that. and I was like, this looks like it looks really bad.
00:50:48
Phantom Libtard
It looks bad.
00:50:49
slimeballsteve
Yeah, it it feels it feels like the the after the song or after the Mario movie, it feels like all the studios were probably clamoring or clamoring to grab whatever intent like video game kid licenses that they could grab and they got Minecraft and they just went.
00:50:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
It sure does.
00:50:50
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:50:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
It sure does.
00:50:51
Brother Devon
And ugly. Yeah.
00:51:10
slimeballsteve
Oh, I hate this. This is stupid.
00:51:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah
00:51:15
slimeballsteve
And it's like, keep in mind, like Minecraft is like one of the biggest franchises ever, like gaming wise.
00:51:20
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:51:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
And it's crazy and it has like a story too where you find like the Ender Dragon all that
00:51:20
slimeballsteve
So, yeah, the well, that's the thing.
00:51:26
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:51:27
slimeballsteve
they've had They've had Minecraft story mode, which was the, um what was that? Pat, oh, Pat and Oswald was like the main character.
00:51:32
Brother Devon
ah Pat Oswald, Patton Oswald. Yeah. And yeah, like a there are two tale tale games of that. And I actually like very much enjoyed that first one.
00:51:44
slimeballsteve
I've always wanted to play it.
00:51:44
Brother Devon
I really liked it.
00:51:45
slimeballsteve
It's, you know, telltale. They always crush it.
00:51:47
Brother Devon
It's awesome, dude. it It really is like really good, in my opinion. um But yet, you know, you could just do an animated film in that style.
00:51:57
slimeballsteve
Yeah, like it's kind of weird.
00:51:57
Brother Devon
And they were just like, let's dress up Jason Momoa in.
00:51:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like the Lego movie or something.
00:52:01
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
00:52:01
Brother Devon
Yeah, exactly. Right. But instead, they're like, let's dress up Jason Momoa in some pink stuff. And because that's going to be funny. And they just put a bunch of actors in ah in a green green screen.
00:52:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
Honestly, I think digitally.
00:52:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think digitally animated movies are more expensive though.
00:52:14
Brother Devon
That's all.
00:52:17
Brother Devon
God. Well, yeah.
00:52:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
Because they have to hire more people to do it.
00:52:19
Brother Devon
Yeah. like And like they look ugly, like they're square, but like not really like.
00:52:25
slimeballsteve
they They all have the weird Sonic teeth, which which makes me think of that. I'm like, why why would you give everything in this game like or in this game movie that like, look, when mind when when Minecraft has a very specific look.
00:52:38
Brother Devon
Sonic teeth.
00:52:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think this whole movie is made for, cause they want it to be mean.
00:52:43
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:52:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like there's no, there's no substance to it.
00:52:48
slimeballsteve
You might be right.
00:52:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's not going to be, it's not going to have a story or characters that are interesting. So they just are going to create these like contrived scenes to set up these visuals that people can steal and use online.
00:53:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's, that's what I see when I watched Australia.
00:53:06
slimeballsteve
they They bought the Minecraft license knowing it was already like a massive like license. And they were like, let's that's do what... Who's that guy who used to make all those shitty video game movies?
00:53:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yui Bowl?
00:53:19
Brother Devon
Oh, yeah, ooey bowl, yeah.
00:53:20
slimeballsteve
Yui Bull. Yeah, maybe they're doing the Yui Bull thing, but they're doing it on like a monumental scale with Minecraft.
00:53:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'm glad you brought him up, because he's back.
00:53:27
slimeballsteve
What?
00:53:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
He's back, baby!
00:53:30
slimeballsteve
What is he doing?
00:53:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
Baby, he's back!
00:53:32
Brother Devon
Oh,
00:53:32
slimeballsteve
Who let him out? Who let him out of jail?
00:53:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah! Yes! Yes! Yes! Whoo! He's trying to crowdfund Postal, too, but it failed, and it's not happening.
00:53:44
Brother Devon
oh so he's not back.
00:53:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
He's not back! God damn it! Son of a bitch!
00:53:51
slimeballsteve
Wait, we stopped him? Yui Bull has been stopped?
00:53:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, within the the the whole time I was talking, and it just ended.
00:53:54
Brother Devon
Yes.
00:53:57
slimeballsteve
Oh, he just lit, okay, that was, thank God.
00:53:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, yeah.
00:53:59
Brother Devon
Yeah. You just watched the countdown of his failed Kickstarter. Let's go to zero. Didn't do it. Sorry.
00:54:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, it did not not go back.
00:54:07
Brother Devon
Did you get any of that money for a failed Kickstarter?
00:54:10
slimeballsteve
No.
00:54:11
Brother Devon
It would be missing by like 10 bucks.
00:54:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, I think, from what I've heard, it was around the $1,200 mark is where they ended up out of like 15 or 5 million.
00:54:19
Brother Devon
Oh, good.
00:54:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think they wanted 5 million.
00:54:24
Brother Devon
That's what he deserves.
00:54:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yikes.
00:54:25
Brother Devon
That's literally what.
00:54:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah Yikes.
00:54:26
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:54:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
For a postal 2, $5 million for postal 2.
00:54:32
Brother Devon
That guy sucks. I'm so glad he's not making money.
00:54:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
Does he suck or is he actually a genius?
00:54:36
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:54:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
you
00:54:39
Brother Devon
Maybe maybe I'm wrong. Probably not.
00:54:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
Maybe you're wrong. Maybe you didn't do your research.
00:54:46
slimeballsteve
Do your research, Devin.
00:54:49
Brother Devon
I guess I should have. Yeah, I'm sorry. ah
00:54:52
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that guy sucks. And I'm glad he's not making another movie. I think we're all happy. I think we're all better off.
00:54:57
Brother Devon

00:54:58
slimeballsteve
He's back.
00:54:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
He's back!
00:54:59
slimeballsteve
Hey, you know what's not ever coming back? Probably. Concord.
00:55:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, what do you think? What? What?
00:55:06
slimeballsteve

00:55:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
White to slay clean I Mean how many people actually bought it though?
00:55:36
Brother Devon
Yeah, that's what that's what a karmically completely in the black now, like no bad things happen. Yeah, no, that game came out and.
00:55:45
slimeballsteve
They evened it out.
00:55:49
Brother Devon
I do that game so weird.
00:55:51
slimeballsteve
Dude, no one, that's the thing.
00:55:52
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that a new record
00:55:54
Brother Devon
Yeah, well, so yeah, so yeah, officially.
00:55:54
slimeballsteve
It is crazy. That game lasted 11 days.
00:56:00
Brother Devon
Yeah, officially they have no, no, the day before beat up by like two days or something like that.
00:56:03
slimeballsteve
Yes.

What's that though?
00:56:09
Brother Devon
Like, like, no,
00:56:09
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, but the day yeah, but the day before it wasn't like a triple a like fucking console console publisher.
00:56:13
Brother Devon
no no, you're right. You're right. You're right. But if we're just talking about, if we're just talking about games that lived and died the day before died, like two days more quickly, a hundred percent, a hundred percent.
00:56:21
Phantom Libtard
And the day before was just a blatant fucking plagiarized mess.
00:56:25
Brother Devon
This is far and away the bigger failure. Like it's not even close. Uh, but yeah, no, so Concord, Sony said, all right, we're officially shutting down, uh, Concord, uh, to reassess and, you know, we'll decide on what the next steps will be.
00:56:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
Pull the plug.
00:56:43
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, we heard all the same shit when Anthem came out.

Phantom Libtard
That's not gonna, I mean, that's, does that gonna change anything?
00:58:14
Brother Devon

Dude, I think it's tainted, dude. I think it's just tainted for good, man.
00:58:16
Phantom Libtard
Like, I don't, they might just, yeah, they might just throw it in the in the ah and the graveyard.
00:58:22
slimeballsteve
This game had eight years of development and money put into it.
00:58:22
Brother Devon
Yeah.
00:58:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
Wow, how much money, Steve?
00:58:26
Brother Devon

00:58:26
slimeballsteve
This was... This was expect, I don't know how much money specifically, but this was like on their, like their PlayStation business portfolio things. They had a big thing where they were like, these are our expected big, big blockbuster like franchises and Concord was on there.
00:58:41
Phantom Libtard
Huge tracks of land.
00:58:43
slimeballsteve
Huge tracks of land.

Astrobot: A Gaming Phenomenon?
01:01:19
Phantom Libtard
Fucking something.
01:01:20
Brother Devon
It's just so weird, man, it's just one of those things where like nobody was that into it. Nobody thought it was a good idea.
01:01:25
Phantom Libtard
This man, we got Astrobot. Astrobot's the best game of the of the decade, I believe people were saying. the Greatest game of the decade.
01:01:30
MERLINCHESTNUT

Fair games, Devin. The game is called Fair Games.

01:01:43
Brother Devon
Oh, yeah, they're my fair games is a place to update.
01:01:43
Phantom Libtard
That's what Astrobot is.
01:01:46

MERLINCHESTNUT
So who's going to buy Astrobot for real? Devin? You buying that?
01:01:51
Brother Devon
I definitely I would like to buy it.
01:01:51
Phantom Libtard

01:01:54
Brother Devon

01:02:06
Brother Devon
Let's go.
01:02:07
Phantom Libtard

01:02:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
There we go.
01:02:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
Are you going to spit on me?
01:02:16
slimeballsteve
Spit on my couch, spit on me.
01:02:16
Brother Devon
Yes.
01:02:17
Phantom Libtard
I just don't. Yeah, I just I don't know. Like I mean, I guess you got to play it to like experience it or whatever. But like just the like I was watching a bunch of twitch streams of Space Marine to like this last week and and Astrobot the last few days.
01:02:34
Phantom Libtard
And I'm like, yeah, like I mean, it looks fun like the the original Astrobot of demo, whatever you want to call it for PS5 was really fun.
01:02:44
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:02:46
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
01:02:46
Phantom Libtard
Like it was really fun. But like it just looked like more of that.
01:02:48
slimeballsteve
He was free too.
01:02:48
Phantom Libtard
Like nothing really likes Yeah, nothing really um nothing really stuck out for me.
01:02:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'll be real with you John. I'm not really. I mean I bought a Sony PlayStation 5. I don't really. I'm not into platforming games. So like this is not.
01:03:04
Phantom Libtard
That's saying I'm in the platforming games, Chris.
01:03:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
I know you know better than me and I to the to me I see this I'm like I don't. This is not why I bought a PS 5. Right.
01:03:13
slimeballsteve
Yeah. Anybody who's like a platform gamer is 100% probably not going to be like, you're going to have, you're going to have a, like a switch, but it is, it it is, not it is nice that they have this, but it is also telling that like 2024.
01:03:23
Phantom Libtard
You're going to play Dark Souls.
01:03:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah.
01:03:24
Phantom Libtard
You're going to play Dark Souls if you're if you're a platforming guy.
01:03:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that's the closest I get. That's the closest.
01:03:30
Phantom Libtard
You're going to play the most toxic version of of platforming ever if you're Chris, which is which is from from software platforming.
01:03:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, the words version of it.
01:03:40
MERLINCHESTNUT

01:03:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
You got a spoiler?

slimeballsteve
If you don't wanna hear, turn your ears off now, okay.
01:04:17
Brother Devon

01:04:18
slimeballsteve

01:04:48
slimeballsteve
Nah.
01:04:50
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:04:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
He's pretty harsh on ah on platformers that aren't Nintendo and
01:04:54
Brother Devon
Don, you're that you're basically that yeah, you're that Philly fan.
01:05:00
Brother Devon
ah You know. Just. Discussing the the fucking the Chick-fil-A or the Popeyes chicken sandwich, you're like, it's all right.
01:05:04
Phantom Libtard
Which one?
01:05:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's all right.
01:05:11
Phantom Libtard
No, I mean, I didn't play it, though.
01:05:12
Brother Devon
I mean, it's all right.
01:05:12
Phantom Libtard
That's the thing. It's just like now I just don't understand. Like, I don't know.
01:05:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
I mean, it's all right.
01:05:20
Brother Devon
Yeah, that's you watching it, you know, you're like, yeah, it looks fine.
01:05:20
Phantom Libtard
I'm just like, I don't I don't know, man, like.
01:05:25
Phantom Libtard
No, it does.
01:05:25
Brother Devon
Looks like they're chomping.
01:05:26
Phantom Libtard
Like, that's the thing, like, but like people are saying this is the best. I mean, again, maybe it's a week year for games, like for a full games or whatever they say. for full release games.
01:05:35
Brother Devon
This seems kind of like, you know, the it seems like a Rotten Tomato 98%.
01:05:36
Phantom Libtard
that They have to say that. They have to but have to say that, Chris. They have to say, this is the best, quote unquote, full release video game release of 2024 because they can't say it's the best thing to play in 2024 because everybody knows what that what that was.
01:05:41
Brother Devon
You know what I mean?
01:05:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
Of course, of course. It's the asterisk. It's like, there's the asterisk coming in.
01:05:54
Brother Devon
Now, again, this is like a this is like a 98 Rotten Tomatoes trick, you know, where it's it's.
01:05:59
Phantom Libtard
No, but like, Devin, Devin, do you think do you honestly think this better? This is better than Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Do you really think this game is going to be better than that?
01:06:05
Brother Devon
I mean, it won't. I don't think so for me, but I think they're stating like, again, they're like, well, no one's going to say no one really has a bad thing to say about it.
01:06:12
Phantom Libtard
Is the bar just low? like and Like that's my that's my whole thing. Like is the bar just low just because like there hasn't been.
01:06:18
Brother Devon
But I mean, I think they're stating like I think this is grading very high as a platforming video game, like by itself, like in its bubble.
01:06:24
Phantom Libtard
ah
01:06:31
Brother Devon
Right. But like, I don't think people are going to say this is going to clean up at the keelys, you know?
01:06:38
Phantom Libtard
That's what they're saying, dude. That's what people are saying.
01:06:39
Brother Devon
I don't know, man. I'd be I'd be surprised.
01:06:41
Phantom Libtard
Paul Tassie was saying that shit on Forbes ah.com.
01:06:44
slimeballsteve
ah Paul?
01:06:45
Brother Devon
Yes, it played it. It's even fucking touched it.
01:06:48
MERLINCHESTNUT

01:06:50
Phantom Libtard

01:06:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah
01:06:52
Brother Devon
Yeah. I don't know who that is.
01:06:56
slimeballsteve
I think the interesting thing about the Astro Bot, the games is it is the most
01:06:56
Brother Devon
Oh, okay.
01:07:03
slimeballsteve
a Sony franchise has kind of floated in the realm of feeling like Nintendo, where like it kind of gives you like that nostalgia and like that, like, no, I don't know.
01:07:09
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:07:14
slimeballsteve
de Decent gaming that like Nintendo is so fond of. And it's the first time that like Sony project like projects have been like kind of like looked in that sense. So I think a lot of the time people are like these games that they kind of just look as like I just toss them out the window.
01:07:27
Phantom Libtard
That just makes me feel icky. Steve, it makes me feel icky when people...
01:07:30
Brother Devon

01:07:30
slimeballsteve
let them Let them have one. Let them have a Mario, even though it's not.

01:07:40
MERLINCHESTNUT
like Holy shit, they died in the last game. How'd they die?

But what was interesting was that after Concord bombed, the chief financial officer of Sony was like, we don't have enough IPs. And then this game came out that celebrates a lot of Sony, like PlayStation IPs. And it's extremely popular right now. And it's like, ah
01:10:54
Brother Devon
Way to just take your own L like immediately, like immediately. He's like, I don't know. He's got to come out with better and more IP. It's like, I don't know, dude. Does not give me good feelings when it comes to Sony leadership still. It just seemed like they're idiots.
01:11:14
Phantom Libtard
Yeah.
01:11:14
slimeballsteve
i I feel like they handed the bag over to a clown.
01:11:18
Brother Devon
Well, there's two clowns now. Because remember, there's like one guy that does the money and then there's one guy that does like the ah You know, I guess like the entertainment side of things.
01:11:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'll tell you the entertainment side that they got a venom coming out I'm Trey Trey venoms in there in their repertoire That what's yeah, is that is that coming out this year
01:11:32
Brother Devon

01:11:44
Brother Devon
Oh, is it let there be that?
01:11:44
MERLINCHESTNUT

01:11:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
Dance with the Venom, right?
01:11:49
Phantom Libtard
This is crazy, this is crazy, yeah.
01:11:50
Brother Devon
Yeah, then I'm three.
01:11:51
slimeballsteve
Venom the Last Dance, it's a musical.
01:11:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
Venom the Last Dance, yeah.
01:11:54
Brother Devon
No, yeah, I think, it yeah, you're right.
01:11:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's about when he won the NBA championship.
01:11:56
Phantom Libtard
Steve, how does this how does this headline make you feel? How does this headline make you feel? The first Astro Bot impression suggests that PlayStation finally has a game that can challenge Mario's platforming crown.
01:12:01
Brother Devon
October 25th.
01:12:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
Okay, there we go. We got a Venom coming.
01:12:08
slimeballsteve
I mean, you know what?
01:12:09
Brother Devon
john This is getting your goat, dude. I love it.
01:12:12
Phantom Libtard
it's good It's getting under my skin, I'm not gonna lie.
01:12:13
slimeballsteve
i don't i don't I don't believe it, I don't believe it.
01:12:17
Phantom Libtard
No, because the the thing that people were fucking retweeting all weekend was the fact that they were saying that this is this generation's Super Mario 64.
01:12:17
slimeballsteve
like
01:12:25
Phantom Libtard
And it's like, why? Like, what the fuck does that even fucking mean? Like, is is this a launch title for the PS5 that changed gaming forever and created created a new fucking genre of video games?
01:12:36
Phantom Libtard
Like, is that is that what Astrobot is? Is that what this is?
01:12:38
Brother Devon
John, look at this guy dancing, dude. Come on. He's awesome.
01:12:42
Phantom Libtard
I was just like.
01:12:45
Brother Devon
but
01:12:45
Phantom Libtard
oh My god, I just can't dude If the donkey video comes out and it makes me cry like the Mario Odyssey one Then and I'll play it.
01:12:49
Brother Devon
ah Yeah. All right. So like what, John, what would, what would be the thing that you're like, all right, I'm going to, I'm going to get this shot. Is it if like the donkey video comes out and he's like, no, legit, this is like awesome. Yeah.
01:13:08
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, but it won't I don't think you can
01:13:11
Brother Devon
All right.
01:13:13
Phantom Libtard
And I think, don I mean, to be honest, like I know I'm trusting Dunkey. Dunkey is a reviewer, but like he's going to be super biased.
01:13:17
Brother Devon
Yeah, it's like.
01:13:20
Brother Devon
Yeah, I know.
01:13:21
Phantom Libtard
He's a Mario fanboy. He's a Mario fanboy.
01:13:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Definitely.
01:13:24
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:13:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, absolutely.
01:13:24
Phantom Libtard
so but So that's why. And that's why I'm holding it to him. Like if he if he says that, like if he says it's better than Super Mario Odyssey, then that I think I would have to play it at that point.
01:13:38
Brother Devon
Well, I mean,
01:13:39
Phantom Libtard
But um'm um' um I'm banking on him just taking a shit fat shit all over it.
01:13:41
Brother Devon
I heard I heard this game also basically has a ah champions road in it.
01:13:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
What's that mean?
01:13:48
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, but that's not what makes Super Mario Odyssey great.
01:13:51
Brother Devon
No, no, I'm just saying I'm not.
01:13:51
Phantom Libtard
It's a really nice thing, right?
01:13:52
Brother Devon
I'm just saying like, ah you know, like there's there's something for the hardcore platformer fans, too.
01:13:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, I see what you're saying.
01:13:57
Brother Devon
It's not just.
01:14:00
Brother Devon
Do he turns into a sponge in what I've never seen that I've never seen Mario turn into a sponge.
01:14:05
Phantom Libtard
but did ah Did IGN review it?
01:14:07
Brother Devon
and I think it was a nine, maybe.
01:14:07
Phantom Libtard
Did they just give it a fucking 10?
01:14:10
Brother Devon
I don't know.
01:14:11
Phantom Libtard
Let me look it up a nine. Oh, so it was hot.
01:14:14
Brother Devon
This is trash.
01:14:15
Phantom Libtard
No, it's hot trash Yo, IGN t-shirt coming in the mail for me tomorrow.
01:14:16
Brother Devon
yeah
01:14:20
slimeballsteve
Haha.
01:14:23
Phantom Libtard
Oh Let me look this up.
01:14:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hey, man, you see, you see what they gave.
01:14:24
Phantom Libtard
Let me look this up Yo, they're there be yeah, they're they're um being real Chris.
01:14:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
You see what they gave the Joker part two. They're not happy. They're being real. They're being real now.
01:14:32
Phantom Libtard
We're back IGN is back.
01:14:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's back, guys. Finally.
01:14:35
Phantom Libtard
I Want you I want you to get the word out there that we back up.
01:14:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
We get yeah the magazine, everybody.
01:14:38
Phantom Libtard
No. Okay. So here's Here's the reviewer for IGN that get you. OK, so I Jan gave it a nine. Asher by his collection of endlessly inventive levels and fantastically fun abilities.
01:14:50
Phantom Libtard
It delivers joint space, never once becoming even remotely dull or repetitive. Team Asobi has crafted a mascot platformer that goes near enough toe to toe with Nintendo's best efforts, nine.
01:15:01
Phantom Libtard
And then the writer says for those asking why isn't it t because I guess a lot of people were mad that it wasn't a 10 for IGN.
01:15:06
Brother Devon
Mm hmm. Yeah.
01:15:08
Phantom Libtard
He says, I just felt ah just felt it didn't quite hit the masterpiece heights of the likes of Mario Galaxy and Odyssey.
01:15:09
Brother Devon
Not enough diversity.
01:15:16
Phantom Libtard
But it is about as far as Nintendo has been pushed regarding platformers.
01:15:20
Brother Devon
Wow.
01:15:22
Phantom Libtard
Asherbot is the best game I've played this year, though. Hope this helps.
01:15:25
Brother Devon
Well.
01:15:26
Phantom Libtard
OK. So this guy's not full dick. He's maybe like half dick riding. He's like grinding on one of the legs, but not it doesn't he he's not spread spread over him like a surfboard.
01:15:35
slimeballsteve
He's like, he's like best game I played all year, but this is a slow year.
01:15:36
Brother Devon
Wait, wait, who's the Dick riding Nintendo or Sony in this, in this comment?
01:15:39
Phantom Libtard
He's kind of grinding Sony a little bit, you know?
01:15:41
Brother Devon
All right.
01:15:43
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, he's not he's not full dick riding.
01:15:45
slimeballsteve
This is a slow year.
01:15:45
Brother Devon
Sounds like he was. All right. All right.
01:15:47
Phantom Libtard
Should add that this isn't meant as any sort of defense or justification. Just wanted to give a little extra context to anyone who wanted it.
01:15:54
slimeballsteve
He got threatened.
01:15:55
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:15:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, he got wild.
01:15:55
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, he got he got he got shit on.
01:15:56
Brother Devon
He for sure got threatened, dude.
01:15:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
He got swatted.
01:15:58
slimeballsteve
Dude, there's controversy that came out today about Astrobot. Days Gone Dev upset with Astrobot cameo.
01:16:07
Brother Devon
What?
01:16:07
slimeballsteve
Dude, the Days Gone Dev pissed. Pissed about Deacon's portrayal.
01:16:11
Brother Devon
Dude, that guy, i wait.
01:16:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
Don't put me in your game! Don't put me in your game!
01:16:15
Brother Devon
Dude, I mean, that guy is ah he's pretty ordinary, that guy.
01:16:22
Brother Devon
Because he's salty as fuck that they didn't just give him this equal.
01:16:22
Phantom Libtard
Oh, man yeah, there's here's some here's somebody's Matt. That's Matt. Yeah, here's here's somebody that's Matt Chris. you'll You'll like this to each their own.
01:16:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
Ooh, I like
01:16:29
Brother Devon
Oh, shit.
01:16:30
Phantom Libtard
This is a reply to this reviewer to each their own. But quote, because it's not Mario Galaxy, does it seem like a fair critique like Elden Ring isn't blood born gets 10.
01:16:43
Phantom Libtard
Elden Ring did merit its 10, but it is almost unanimously agreed to be not quite as tight as Bloodborne. Is that true?
01:16:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah No!
01:16:52
Phantom Libtard
Is that true, Chris?
01:16:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't know.
01:16:55
Brother Devon
Well that sounds true to me.
01:16:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
nonsense.
01:16:57
Phantom Libtard
Again, you review, not mine.
01:16:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like, got a man's an idiot.
01:16:59
Phantom Libtard
Glad you enjoyed. This guy's seething, Chris. This dude is fucking seething.
01:17:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, well, it is not unanimously agreed.
01:17:06
Phantom Libtard
Elden Ring did merit its 10, but it is almost unanimously agreed to be not quite as tight as Bloodborne. you dadly agreed
01:17:14
slimeballsteve
We improved.
01:17:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
He's made that shit up.
01:17:15
Phantom Libtard
bro maybe is this tim this is tim right tim wrote this tweet
01:17:18
MERLINCHESTNUT

01:17:20
Phantom Libtard

01:17:35
Brother Devon
of like
01:17:36
Phantom Libtard
And it's a nine, you know, it's a good score, guys. And I say that with the with the most patronizing tone I could ever say it with.
01:17:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
fine.
01:17:42
Brother Devon
yeah come on guys I mean, but would you argue that's a fair criticism though?
01:17:45
Phantom Libtard
This is what I needed. Now people are replying, posting, posting his posting the guy's profile pic blown up like that's that's this is Sony.
01:17:48
Brother Devon
Because because because the the criticism...
01:17:54
Brother Devon
Oh shit.
01:17:56
Brother Devon
and
01:17:57
Phantom Libtard
This is Sony. David, this is Sony fans.
01:17:58
Brother Devon
What's that mean? I don't know what that means.
01:18:02
Phantom Libtard
They finally have their Mario and it's not Mario and so it's not good enough and they get mad.
01:18:05
Brother Devon
Yeah, so it gets a nine. Yeah, maybe I agree with that guy.
01:18:09
Phantom Libtard
That's crazy.
01:18:10
Brother Devon
Maybe maybe the critique of it's not Mario isn't a great critique.
01:18:12
Phantom Libtard
If this was on Nintendo, you would give you would give it a 10.
01:18:16
Brother Devon
You give it a fucking 12.
01:18:18
Phantom Libtard
I mean, he's not wrong. That guy's not wrong either.
01:18:21
Brother Devon
yeah Yeah, that's fair. That's fair.
01:18:26
slimeballsteve
Look, let's just, let's just look at it this way.
01:18:26
Phantom Libtard
Like I like I ja didn't give so many games fans.

01:19:04
slimeballsteve

MERLINCHESTNUT
They blew up.
01:19:23
slimeballsteve
They scream.
01:19:24
Phantom Libtard
What do we go by? Do we go by meta critic or open critic?
01:19:25
Brother Devon

01:19:29
slimeballsteve
It's open to anybody Yeah
01:19:30
Brother Devon

01:19:48
MERLINCHESTNUT

Brother Devon
The Metacritic will wait like IGN's 10 more so than like fucking.
01:19:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
Not the critic review.
01:19:58
Brother Devon
Joysticks 10, you know, we're open credit is just universal.
01:19:59
Phantom Libtard
Okay, so open critic open credit is a flat a aggregate aggregate.
01:20:02
Brother Devon
Yeah, exactly.
01:20:04
Phantom Libtard
Okay.
01:20:04
Brother Devon

01:20:11
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:20:12
slimeballsteve
It is.
01:20:12
Brother Devon
wait so Wait, so I'm looking at this this one of five negative user reviews that Astrobot2 got. It has a two out of 10.
01:20:22
Phantom Libtard
right, let's see
01:20:22
slimeballsteve
A 2 out of 10.
01:20:24
Brother Devon
Yeah, this is what they post it in shit talk. They just post it what the review states.
01:20:29
Phantom Libtard
It's just diversity shit the way that That's
01:20:30
Brother Devon
Just two. No, no, it's, it's that's, yeah, I'm actually keyboard giving it two.
01:20:35
slimeballsteve
They just mash the keyboard?
01:20:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
who
01:20:39
Phantom Libtard
me was that me was that me was that me oh my god
01:20:41
slimeballsteve
Just rage it out just rage it out Wow
01:20:41
Brother Devon
I think so. ah Oh, OK, wait, here's one. Here's one. I evaluate project. This guy gave it a zero. I have not a project based on a simple principle, a triangle with three key aspects.
01:20:56
Brother Devon
Gameplay, quality, shit game has a decent way. OK, three aspects, gameplay and quality. And then he doesn't name the third.
01:21:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh boy, here we go.
01:21:07
Brother Devon
Blank game has a decent level of quality and good integration physics.
01:21:07
Phantom Libtard
wants them
01:21:11
Brother Devon
They are already questions about gameplay. I believe that the game is designed for an audience of eight to 12 year olds for which for which we can make a retreat.
01:21:18
Phantom Libtard
Well, that was all the bad reviews on Mario Odyssey we're saying the same shit there's a kid for it game for babies
01:21:23
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:21:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
For babies. It's a game for babies.
01:21:25
Brother Devon
Yeah. But here's the price. It's absolutely not commensurate with what they give us. It's just money thrown away. It's zero out of 10.
01:21:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
Wow.
01:21:35
Brother Devon
Astrobot is nothing more than a blank generic knockoff of Mario. This is John's barrier.
01:21:40
Phantom Libtard
Hell yeah. Give it to me.
01:21:41
Brother Devon
It tries to mimic the charm and creativity of Mario games, but fails miserably. The level design is uninspired.
01:21:46
Phantom Libtard
Yes. Mm hmm.
01:21:47
Brother Devon
The gameplay feels like a watered down version of what Nintendo yeah what nintendo perfected years ago.
01:21:49
Phantom Libtard
Inject this into my veins.
01:21:53
Brother Devon
And there's hardly any originality to speed going
01:21:55
Phantom Libtard
I'm inhaling it, Chris, I'm inhaling it and feeling it hit the ventricles of my lungs right now.
01:21:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah Dear drinker.
01:21:59
Brother Devon
Even the character feels like a soulless attempt to cash in on the mascot platformer trend.
01:22:05
Phantom Libtard
Hell yeah.
01:22:06
Brother Devon
ah while While Mario revolutionized gaming with innovative mechanics and iconic worlds, Astrobot just rehashes the same ideas with none of the magic or creativity that made Mario a legend, period.
01:22:06
Phantom Libtard
Preach King.
01:22:10
Phantom Libtard
Yup. There it is.
01:22:14
Phantom Libtard
Slam dunk. Yup.
01:22:18
Phantom Libtard
Fine, I'm buying this game tonight.
01:22:21
Brother Devon
Zero out of 10.
01:22:21
Phantom Libtard
and I'm going to play it. I'm playing it.
01:22:23
Brother Devon

01:22:24
slimeballsteve

Phantom Libtard
Wait, what's most the what's the how to how to how how long the beat for this game?
01:22:36
Brother Devon
I think it's seven and a half.
01:22:39
Phantom Libtard
Seven and a half hours.
01:22:40
Brother Devon
Yeah, that's right.
01:22:42
Phantom Libtard

slimeballsteve
It doesn't matter. These don't matter.
01:24:40
MERLINCHESTNUT
None of that.
01:24:40
slimeballsteve
ah And there is an asterisk next to the Yharnam and the other outfits that say game progression required to unlock. Yeah.
01:24:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well, it'll only take me like, what, five hours to beat. So who cares? I mean, that doesn't sound, I don't, this is not where the bad partner rubs me the wrong way.
01:24:57
Brother Devon
now
01:24:57
Phantom Libtard
They should give me this game for free when they fucking auto charge me for the whole year of PlayStation Premium.
01:25:03
slimeballsteve
Dude, they've done that to me twice in a row.
01:25:03
Phantom Libtard
and Without telling me.
01:25:05
Brother Devon
No.
01:25:05
Phantom Libtard
Without telling me. They give me this game for free then.
01:25:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
ah How long is Odyssey? How long does that take you to beat?
01:25:10
Phantom Libtard
Uh, to just beat it?
01:25:11
slimeballsteve
oh
01:25:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, just beat the game.
01:25:13
slimeballsteve
It's not like a long, long game.
01:25:15
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, maybe like 10, 10, 12 hours maybe?
01:25:17
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
01:25:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
and Okay. So I guess that is kind of the way platformers are.
01:25:20
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:25:20
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
01:25:21
Brother Devon
Yeah. I think like.
01:25:21
Phantom Libtard
That's if like, no, that's literally if you're like a seven year old kid and it lets you like beat the game. But like if you want to be if you want to if you want to souls like it and play all the hard.
01:25:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, I see.
01:25:30
Brother Devon
Yeah, yeah, if you want to do a job, if you want to get the golden ship or whatever.
01:25:34
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, because so those there's levels in that game that are are absolutely impossible.
01:25:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
I see.
01:25:40
Phantom Libtard
So I wonder I'm wondering if Astrobot has has the same because like my argument for that game was that it's a good game for kids and adults because a kid can still beat it.
01:25:52
Phantom Libtard
um But not play hat like any of the levels that an adult would play.
01:25:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
I see it has like a little bit of a cutoff when it comes to all of the content.
01:25:58
Phantom Libtard
you know, or would be able to play. Yeah, but it doesn't. Yeah, but it doesn't gate keep them from from like, it's not like a seven year old trying to play Dark Souls remastered, you know, where they wouldn't be able to get past like five minutes of that game.
01:26:12
Phantom Libtard
And then that's it, you know.
01:26:13
MERLINCHESTNUT
Do I make my son play? You got to get good, son.
01:26:17
Phantom Libtard
60 bucks.
01:26:18
slimeballsteve
get in there son get in there son i mean you could just yeah you could just wait and like see if it goes on sale at some point all
01:26:18
Phantom Libtard
Oh.
01:26:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
Get in there, son. Don't be afraid. You got to fight back.
01:26:23
Phantom Libtard
I mean, I was I was going to I was going to rage by it, but I'm not going to rage by right now because it's 60 dollars. Oh, wait. I turn I'm shutting my PlayStation off now, guys, turning it off.
01:26:36
Phantom Libtard
But yeah, man, like fucking.
01:26:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
you but Get get ball that gate man, you don't like that.
01:26:37
slimeballsteve
right yeah you you're gonna like the way you look i guarantee you
01:26:42
Phantom Libtard
No, but that's the I was going to buy Baldur's Gate, but not I don't have plans to play it yet. I don't want to play it right now because I just play.
01:26:47
slimeballsteve
You need ah you need a like a divider game.
01:26:50
Phantom Libtard
Well, I that's what I thought. I asked about probably be a good like fucking cool down game.
01:26:54
Brother Devon
Good cool time. I think it'd be a good cool down again.
01:26:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
play Play Dave the Diver, that gives a lot of fun.
01:26:57
Phantom Libtard
But then. I don't know, I do have Dave the Diver. I did start that while I was in Chicago last time.
01:27:00
Brother Devon
All right.
01:27:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's pretty chill at one point and then he gets
01:27:02
slimeballsteve
What the
01:27:06
Phantom Libtard
It's tough.
01:27:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
Then you're spinning plates. Yeah, you got to keep up with things.
01:27:08
Brother Devon
I missed the Godzilla DLC. I don't know if it's worth my time.
01:27:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, damn it. What the hell?
01:27:14
slimeballsteve
hell, dammit.
01:27:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
What the hell?
01:27:16
slimeballsteve
My god, Darren.
01:27:17
Phantom Libtard
And why is the days gone die mad mad that that that that that he that the dude days gone do is an astronaut.
01:27:17
Brother Devon
What the hell was that?
01:27:23
Phantom Libtard
Why is he pissed?
01:27:26
Brother Devon
I don't know. I mean, Steve, maybe Steve knows the actual reason, but that guy, I'd assume that guy is just complaining because he really, tried he tried very hard to get a sequel up and running.
01:27:29
slimeballsteve
I didn't read the rest of the article.
01:27:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think he knows that guy.
01:27:38
Brother Devon
Uh, and they're like, no, it's just not popular enough. So he's probably like, oh, I'm popular enough to be in your stupid fucking astronaut game, but not enough to let me keep making games.
01:27:49
slimeballsteve
And they're like, bro, we put every guy in this game.
01:27:49
Brother Devon
Fuck you. Days gone dev mad Astro bot. Let's see. Let's see. Let's find it. Kind of sad to see that Deak has been reduced to promoting other games dot, dot, dot. Well done, Ben Studio. Way to protect your legacy. Wow. This is Salt City. Haha. I see my character reduced to a cartoon shill promoting some small game and I'm being harsh.
01:28:20
Brother Devon
Sit down, my brother.
01:28:22
Phantom Libtard
Yikes.
01:28:22
Brother Devon
Adults are talking.
01:28:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
That sounds like something Devin would say.
01:28:24
Brother Devon
Yes, guys.
01:28:26
slimeballsteve
Oh man.
01:28:28
Brother Devon
Fuck you. True.
01:28:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
Devin's gone. His game it came out.
01:28:33
Brother Devon
Hmm.
01:28:33
slimeballsteve
ah Tevin's gone.
01:28:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
they they car I didn't do anything this week.
01:28:35
Brother Devon
Can't believe they're used to my guy to promote a game. Just embarrassing.
01:28:38
slimeballsteve
Dude, I can't believe weapon 109, who is a very serious man and very strong, was used for baby game.
01:28:43
Brother Devon
You know how many bodybuilding competitions I've won?
01:28:47
slimeballsteve
109 of them.
01:28:49
Brother Devon
Other than nine.
01:28:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
i I played Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.
01:28:55
Brother Devon
OK.
01:28:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
I got the Nibelheim, which I will say is probably my favorite area in the game.
01:28:57
Brother Devon
Nice.
01:29:01
Brother Devon
Yeah, it's it's a. Again, ah it's it's a breath of fresh.
01:29:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
Because the Chocobo stuff, it makes traveling around that map just so much fun and easier.
01:29:06
Brother Devon
The chocobo stuff's way more fun, too.
01:29:11
Brother Devon
So much better.
01:29:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's like they they nailed it then. Like I it's so hard to move around that map on a Chocobo.
01:29:17
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:29:21
MERLINCHESTNUT
in any of those maps outside of that one.
01:29:23
Brother Devon
Mm hmm.
01:29:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
And man, I cleared all of the the objective super fast, too, which I was like, oh, that was that was a breath fresh air to like burning through those so fast.
01:29:34
Brother Devon
yeah
01:29:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, Jesus. Yeah. And what else do I do?
01:29:39
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:29:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's about it, man. I could have watched the fall guy, but I was like, I don't know.
01:29:47
Brother Devon
Oh, you should watch the fall guy.
01:29:47
Phantom Libtard
awwww
01:29:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't want to.
01:29:49
Brother Devon
Fall guy's going to go. That was fun. That was good.
01:29:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't, I don't want to see it.
01:29:53
Brother Devon
Damn it.
01:29:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
I have no interest. yeah
01:29:56
Brother Devon
God, you and most of America.
01:29:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
i Nothing. um It's hard. i I look at that movie and I'm like, that's my reaction. So other than that, there was not a lot of new drops on streaming services that I could think of that I was interested at least in. I have been watching a little bit of ah Only Murders in the building.
01:30:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
that's
01:30:21
Brother Devon
Is that good? <unk>ve I've heard awesome things.
01:30:22
Phantom Libtard
Like the new season, Chris?
01:30:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, the newest season.
01:30:25
Phantom Libtard
that Sam just loves that show.
01:30:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's it's.
01:30:28
Phantom Libtard
I tried to get into it when she was watching the first season, but Selena Gomez's vocal fry voice in the first season, like I was like, I can't.
01:30:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's kind of rough.
01:30:37
Phantom Libtard
I'll fucking, I'll have a, I'll fucking, I'll kill myself.
01:30:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't I don't really like it much either, to be honest. She.
01:30:42
Phantom Libtard
I'll jump off a fucking bridge listening to this shit.
01:30:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
She has that like kind of on the spectrum voice. I can't really describe like emotionless a little bit. It's weird. I it's.
01:30:52
Phantom Libtard
ah Asperger's like that kind of thing It's like monotone it's like my like she just talks very monotone and like and Vocal fry and I just couldn't I don't know.
01:30:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, a little bit.
01:30:54
Brother Devon
Whoa, really? I don't I don't guess I've never Okay Yeah yeah
01:30:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
Very monotone. Yeah.
01:31:05
Phantom Libtard
It just seemed like she was trying too hard in the first season Maybe she gets better, huh?
01:31:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'll tell you, I'll tell you this, like Martin Shorten, Steve Martin are great. And the the the special guests they get on, like they had Zach Galifianakis playing himself in the season and Eugene Levy playing himself because they're going to be them in a movie that they're making about the podcast.
01:31:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
that the show is about. um That was great, really funny stuff. It's just, I kind of feel the same way about this show that I do about like Ted Lasso, where it's like, it's not overwhelmingly funny, but it's clever.
01:31:43
Brother Devon
okay
01:31:43
slimeballsteve
Mm.
01:31:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
And you like, it get I get more like, it gets more of those out of me, like, you know, or might I'll exhale out of my nostril a little louder, like, like that.
01:31:48
Phantom Libtard
Yeah. yeah
01:31:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
um It, um yeah, it just doesn't, it's not gonna tickle me.
01:31:59
Brother Devon
Okay. It's Chris in science.
01:32:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like,
Trends in Comedy and Entertainment
01:32:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
like i'm I'm laughing out loud watching like, I don't know, community and there's not a lot of new comedy that gets me, I think you should leave.
01:32:15
Brother Devon
Yeah, yeah.
01:32:15
slimeballsteve
Mm.
01:32:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
That gets me laughing.
01:32:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like, I don't know, it's weird. I don't watch a lot of as many comedy shows as I used to, I've noticed. and
01:32:27
Brother Devon
Comedy is still hard, man. It's like hard to find like a good, universally funny like.
01:32:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
It is.
01:32:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like I like the Kite Man show on on Max, like that's fine. Is it it's not as good as Harley Quinn, but I've watched some of it.
01:32:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
It made me laugh a little bit.
01:32:47
Brother Devon
yeah
01:32:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
Harley Quinn, the first season is fucking is hilarious, you know?
01:32:52
slimeballsteve
Mm.
01:32:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
um Yeah, I don't know. There's just not a lot of comedies that are and as interesting to me nowadays. um It's always like, i i I feel like there's so much comedy in in movies nowadays that like a drama is almost comedic.
01:33:16
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like 30, 40% of it is is comedic.
01:33:16
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:33:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
um Yeah, like I feel like it's just instilled in almost every genre of television.
01:33:25
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
01:33:26
MERLINCHESTNUT
Uh, even like, you know, like the Marvel movies, obviously like action movies are funny now. Horror movies are funny. Sci-fi movies are funny. Like there it's. There's always an element of comedy attached to everything.
01:33:42
slimeballsteve
They've squeezed it into every genre.
01:33:45
Brother Devon
Yeah, like a straight comedy is almost rare.
01:33:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah.
01:33:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
I know like ah like a situational comedy, whether that be a TV show or a movie, it's very rare.
01:33:48
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
01:33:52
slimeballsteve
Like,
01:33:55
slimeballsteve
Deadpool and Wolverine, like the one of the gripping points of that is it's like. It is comic like it is like, you know, marvel-y, but it's also, you know, more comedy than normal, so.
01:34:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah. And it's an action movie too, like in the same breath, you know, like it's, I'm, I'm always surprised by movies like John Wick, you know, the coming out nowadays because they take themselves so serious and, and, but they do, and they're kind of tongue in cheek about it.
01:34:11
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
01:34:18
slimeballsteve
Mm hmm.
01:34:28
slimeballsteve
There's laughs in those movies, but there's laughs because you are watching something that is doing things overly serious sometimes to the point where it is wrapping around into satire and comedy.
01:34:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's satire. Yeah, yeah, I feel like that happens. I think it happened more in the beginning of the series than it did towards the end.
01:34:47
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
01:34:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think it's really starting to take itself more serious as it went on. um Yeah, it's just, it's weird to actually sit down and wanna watch a comedy, a straight up comedy nowadays.
01:35:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't know what that means.
01:35:03
slimeballsteve
I'm trying, um you know what, I'm gonna just look up comedies.
01:35:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah. Like you think about them and like most of them nowadays are romantic comedies and they're making money. Like apparently.
01:35:13
slimeballsteve
Fall guy, greedy people, find me falling, fly me to the moon.
01:35:20
Brother Devon
Yeah, you know what fall guy a straight comedy. Chris said, no, thank you.
01:35:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, I did. I you're absolutely right.
01:35:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't.
01:35:27
slimeballsteve
Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice?
01:35:30
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:35:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, I guess horror comedy.
01:35:30
slimeballsteve
Would you consider that a comedy?
01:35:31
Brother Devon
and say sir Yeah.
01:35:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's kind of.
01:35:34
slimeballsteve
Or is that drag out?
01:35:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
I'd say it's more comedy than horror, definitely, right?
01:35:37
slimeballsteve
Drag out nostalgic movies from your past and. and
01:35:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, we can't make funny movies anymore. We gotta make this again.
01:35:45
slimeballsteve
This is all we got. Sorry.
01:35:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
I feel like ah Judd Apatow's crying in his millions of dollars right now.
01:35:55
Brother Devon
no

01:36:37
Brother Devon
Chris said, no, I don't want I don't want to see Beetlejuice. Sit in my room. The Adam song on repeat.
01:36:48
Brother Devon
I don't think what he said. So you're being emo, Chris, is my point is my is my joke.
01:37:03
Brother Devon
That's true. Yeah, I mean.
01:37:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like, I listen to pod, or I watch podcasts, you know, like comedians. You know, Stavros, that guy's pretty funny. The Greek comedian.
01:37:16

Brother Devon
His actual material.
01:37:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
I've never watched his standup. I only watch his podcast.
01:37:38
Brother Devon
I've never, I watched like 20 minutes of his like actually jokes. And I was like, this sucks.
01:37:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's not good. Yeah. You see, that makes sense. He's a good, I like him in an interview setting, like when he's talking to other comedians and stuff, but I, I don't watch his comedy, you know, his actual standup.
01:37:47
Brother Devon
Yeah. Interview.
01:37:50
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:37:56
MERLINCHESTNUT

01:37:56
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:38:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
Connor O'Malley, like all those shorts that he makes, the mask short and everything.
01:38:06

MERLINCHESTNUT
I fucking love that.
01:38:10
Brother Devon
Literally, he's like, because I'm like, I don't know how much of this is a joke and it scares me.
01:38:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
Love it.
01:38:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
it's very It's kind of frightening, a lot of his stuff.
01:38:17
Brother Devon
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
01:38:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
I eat that up. I really do. um Yeah, like skits and and stuff on YouTube really dominate my comedy viewing.
01:38:26
Brother Devon
All right.
01:38:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
See, I don't even watch stand-up that much anymore.
01:38:34
Brother Devon
It's like Joe Rogan stand up. It's very, very funny.
01:38:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah
01:38:39
slimeballsteve
ah
01:38:39
Brother Devon
You just watch that.
01:38:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, I should've said that.
01:38:42
Brother Devon
That renew your love of stand-up comedy, ah Chris.
01:38:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that'll definitely get me in there again.
01:38:46
Brother Devon
Chris, you could be watching Ghostbusters Frozen Empire right now.
01:38:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
ah
01:38:51
Brother Devon
And just making that noise for two hours.
01:38:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah
01:38:54
Brother Devon
wow Speaking of potential comedies, I don't know what the deal is with this. This is truthfully like I might be eating some crow on this one, but this looks truly terrible.
01:39:04
slimeballsteve
Ha ha!
01:39:09
Brother Devon
This Nightbix trailer.
01:39:09
MERLINCHESTNUT
hi Yeah, you turn my that trailer looks rough man.
01:39:13
Brother Devon
Is this like.
01:39:13
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't know what's going on It's a shame, too Yeah, it's a it's a really good book about like Because obviously there's the the crazy You know take on the plot where it's a woman turning into a dog.
01:39:16
Brother Devon
I mean, I get it. You said it's a book, right?
01:39:29
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:39:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, that's definitely it but like it's more about how you sacrifice your so your life a little bit when you have kids and you you go a little crazy because of it.
01:39:41
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:39:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like you don't, you know, you're not fulfilled, you know, it's not bad.
01:39:44
Brother Devon
So Chris, you remember that? Remember that Tim Allen movie where he turns into a dog? It sounds like I'm not even like being funny. Like that sounds like the same fucking plot.
01:39:55
Brother Devon
It's like he's a stressed out dad who's to he works too much.
01:39:55
slimeballsteve
The Shaggy Dog.
01:39:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
I mean, yes, that the Shaggy dog movies are kind of close to that concept, but it's more, um, it's darker.
01:39:59
Brother Devon
And it's like.
01:40:01
Phantom Libtard
Silence. Silence.
01:40:07
Brother Devon
He said movies like there's seven of them.
01:40:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
I mean, there are there's it's been remade a few times and there's sequels and shit.
01:40:11
Brother Devon
Well, I mean, yeah I guess you're right. yeah
01:40:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
the The whole point of it is it's taking it under a different microscope and and a different perspective on it. And it's a little darker than like the Shaggy Dog or like straight up comedies.
01:40:25
Brother Devon
Yeah. Yeah.
01:40:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
And that's the problem with the trailer. Right. Like when I when I read the book, there is this kind of dark, weird element to it.
01:40:30
Brother Devon
yeah
01:40:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's not funny. And I don't think that trailer captured that at all. It just looks stupid in a lot of those scenes. um Yeah, I don't know.
01:40:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
I want to hope that's just a bad trailer. I really do.
01:40:51
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:40:51
slimeballsteve
You're hoping they're ah they're driving it.
01:40:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, I i think.
01:40:54
Brother Devon
I mean, did you see this trailer?
01:40:56
slimeballsteve
I'm glancing it right now.
01:40:56
Brother Devon
It's like, it's like pretty atrocious in my opinion. Like, I don't know.
01:41:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
I want to hope that this is a bad ah trailer company. That pulled together a really shitty trailer that they were trying to market to certain demographics, I guess And it just it just does not Fit the tone of the book at all So I don't know man. I want to hope this is a bad trailer. That's my that's my
01:41:26
Brother Devon
Yeah. Well, I mean, there was also this ah this teaser. This is really nothing to write home about, honestly. But ah there's a teaser for the Alien Earth show, which I won.
01:41:41
Brother Devon
I didn't know they were making a show. But it's.
01:41:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, this is the guy who makes Fargo, right? Noah Hawthorne?
01:41:47
Brother Devon
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:41:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
Noah Haley.
01:41:51
Brother Devon
Which is like, OK, one, OK.
01:41:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
Noah
01:41:54
slimeballsteve
That's interesting.
01:41:54
Brother Devon
Uh, and he apparently said, like, he kind of was like, no, this is not just going to be like a one season thing. He's like, there are going to be plot lines that are expected to go on through multiple seasons.
01:42:05
Brother Devon
Like this is not just kind of like a one off.
01:42:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
Cool.
01:42:09
Brother Devon
Um, so prequel set three decades before the first movie.
01:42:13
MERLINCHESTNUT
And it's set set on Earth, right?
01:42:16
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:42:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
Earth in the alien universe.
01:42:17
Brother Devon
Yeah. I don't think we have like too many details in terms of like what the actual plot is.
01:42:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
I believe there was never a film set on Earth in the alien universe. Pretty sure.
01:42:28
Brother Devon
Uh, maybe somebody doesn't remember aliens versus predator requiem where.
01:42:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, I'll do you one better, Devin. Not only do I not remember it, I've never seen it.
01:42:40
Brother Devon
Me neither. It's too dark, literally, just it's very difficult to watch that movie visually.
01:42:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
You know, really.
01:42:48
Brother Devon
It's the whole thing's the battle of the bastards. I'm sorry, not bastards.
01:42:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
That all the aliens.
01:42:55
Brother Devon
Yeah, about the aliens. It's just dark and rainy.
01:42:57
slimeballsteve
Not Helm's Deep, god damn it. i The one from the very last few episodes of Game of Thrones.
01:43:00
Brother Devon
No.
01:43:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
Do you think predators now get like insulted when they're called aliens?
01:43:03
Brother Devon
Yeah, yeah.
01:43:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
Because like that's what we would refer to them under the umbrella.
01:43:10
Brother Devon
Yeah, I mean, who do you think I am?
01:43:11
slimeballsteve
They're like, come on, man.
01:43:13
Brother Devon
You think I'm like basically a cockroach, dude?
01:43:13
slimeballsteve
Come on, man.

Brother Devon
That's disgusting.

MERLINCHESTNUT
No, you're thinking ah you're thinking of the other guy.

01:44:21
MERLINCHESTNUT
Let's churn it out.
01:44:22
Brother Devon
The Office? No, thank you. That's the hardest I've laughed in a decade. That's that's funnier than Mario 64.
01:44:30
Brother Devon
As I said, thanks Astrobot. Chris, you also posted a trailer for this movie called Monsters, the Lyle and Eric Menendez story.
01:44:38
MERLINCHESTNUT

01:44:41
Brother Devon
I'm sorry.
01:44:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's a series.
01:44:44
Brother Devon
Oh, a Netflix series? They never do those.
01:44:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yes, sir.
01:44:46
slimeballsteve
The Menendez Brothers are getting a series?
01:44:47
Phantom Libtard
it so Is that like the season two of the of the Jeffrey Dahmer show?
01:44:50
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, yes. So the new focus on on monsters ah this season will be on the Menendez brothers, the fellas that murdered their family, mother and father in bed while they were sleeping with shotguns bloomed to pieces.
01:44:53
Phantom Libtard
The serial killer verse
01:45:07
Brother Devon
Oh.
01:45:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
And yes, it will be on focus on the brothers themselves. and their lives and I believe their spoiled lives in which they were trying to take their father's wealth.
01:45:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
Who was also, I think, abusive. I remember correctly.
01:45:23
Brother Devon
Probably.
01:45:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, it was this whole terrible scandal and awful murder. And yeah, it's going to be a whole season.
01:45:30
Brother Devon
Are you familiar with this story at all?
01:45:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, I remember when we were growing up a little bit, ah they made fun of it on cable guy when I was a kid.
01:45:33
Brother Devon
Okay.
01:45:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
And I i remember asking my brother Like, what is that? i got I didn't get it. And he explained. He's like, oh, yeah, the two two brothers, they killed their parents.
01:45:49
Brother Devon
I do like we should do that.
01:45:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
And I'm like, whoa.
01:45:52
Brother Devon
And then I don't.
01:45:54
slimeballsteve
do do do do do do
01:45:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah.
01:45:55
Brother Devon
Do.
01:45:59
Brother Devon
But I mean, the trailer seems to apply that one brothers way crazier than the other and the other is just the dope who got convinced.
01:46:04
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah Like, I don't know the specifics if that's what you're asking.
01:46:08
Brother Devon
Yeah, yeah.
01:46:09
MERLINCHESTNUT
But I knew I knew of them and what the whole thing.
01:46:13
Brother Devon
Yeah, well, I mean, you know, reading all these serial killers, I didn't know if they were. In your in your in your top 10.
01:46:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
Well. Sorry, baby, they don't got the body count for me.
01:46:23
Brother Devon
OK, just. It's quality, Chris.
01:46:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, you're right. You're right.
01:46:30
slimeballsteve
Is it me or does the one brother like Will Forte?
01:46:30
Brother Devon
Over quantity.
01:46:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think they're going for that.
01:46:36
Brother Devon
What a real life they
01:46:36
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think they're going for that.
01:46:36
slimeballsteve
Neither going for Will Forte?
01:46:39
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think they're going, because listen, there's something I've noticed about a lot of these shows.
01:46:42
slimeballsteve
Not my belts!
01:46:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
You don't flush the door. I want to see what you've done.
01:46:54
MERLINCHESTNUT
who
01:46:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
ah I like, cause I feel like some of these shows, especially American Murder Story, which is the same guy, American Horror Story, same guy as American Horror Story, he's the same writer, Ryan Murphy.
01:47:09
Phantom Libtard
ah ryan Ryan Murphy or whatever.
01:47:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
right um i like his I like his take on historical events because I think he adds this layer of silliness to everything.
01:47:12
Phantom Libtard
The Murph dog.
01:47:21
MERLINCHESTNUT
And I just eat it up. like even Even the Dahmer stuff, there's some scenes in that show that are really silly that made me laugh.
01:47:32
MERLINCHESTNUT
like but That scene where he's in prison and he's playing whale songs at like full volume and and he's keeping everybody up like in his book. these well And the guy in the garden comes in, he's all pissed off. He's like, you gotta shut that fucking shit off. He's like, I'll just get more. Like a real prick. Oh man. That made me laugh. Um, I don't know. Like,
01:48:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
It's something to a shows like the the OJ Simpson trial, like the way a lot of those people were portrayed, I think it was a little silly like and I liked it.
01:48:09
slimeballsteve
Is this the same guy?
01:48:10
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah. Yeah.
01:48:11
slimeballsteve
Oh, okay.
01:48:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
Same guy.
01:48:12
slimeballsteve
All right.
01:48:13
MERLINCHESTNUT
Andrew Canaan in the death of Versace.
01:48:13
Phantom Libtard
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
01:48:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like all all of those. i I love them. I watch. I really do like the way he captures real life events. And he focuses on really terrible people.
01:48:28
MERLINCHESTNUT
um And it's great. It just. It's kinda trashy. A little. This is the stuff that I like though, I'm interested in.
01:48:40
Brother Devon
Yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, these guys, they seem peak fucking trashy.
01:48:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, it's definitely gonna be 90s. 90s, like early 80s, 90s trash.
01:48:49
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
01:48:49
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:48:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's the whole show is gonna be.
01:48:51
Brother Devon
Yeah. Speaking of trashy, uh, Stevie posted the Mr. McMahon trailer, um, which
01:48:56
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
01:48:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
What is, is this a smear job? What is this?
01:49:01
Brother Devon
Well, so it was Steve brought up an interesting point initially. So WWE made a, they signed a deal where in next year they're going to be like on Netflix, like their live shows are going to be on Netflix.
01:49:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, really?
01:49:13
slimeballsteve
Yeah, they're moving all their content.
01:49:15
Brother Devon
Yeah. Um, and then I don't, I don't know if it's raw and smackdown or if it's just going to be raw or, or one of the other.
01:49:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
Wait, they're not going to be, they're not going to be at all on television or is it going to be like a dual bra broadcast?
01:49:24
slimeballsteve
I think it's wrong. I know that like they're right now they're on peacock, but I think they're they're moving over to Netflix 2025.
01:49:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, I see.
01:49:32
slimeballsteve
So because what happened was because of all the Mr.
01:49:33
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:49:35
slimeballsteve
McMahon stuff, I think um there was ah I don't remember the timeline, but I know the w WWE and UFC kind of like made a deal with one another under like, join the Rock Johnson and like a bunch of people.
01:49:50
slimeballsteve
And they started this thing called TKO. And that is like, they're like, they're over company now. And they signed the deal with Netflix.
01:49:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
Interesting. So was this before or after Vince McMahon left the company?
01:50:00
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:50:03
slimeballsteve
I kind of, I kind of forget.
01:50:03
Brother Devon
This was like during kind of like this was like when they were kind of trying to get them out anyway.
01:50:07
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
01:50:11
MERLINCHESTNUT
So all were they trying to get him out so they could get the deal passed, do you think?
01:50:12
slimeballsteve
They're trying to do it quietly.
01:50:13
Brother Devon
Yeah, they're trying to get away.
01:50:17
Brother Devon
Well, this was because remember, remember when he he like retired, but then like came back.
01:50:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, yeah, thought totally.
01:50:25
Brother Devon
And then and then this stuff about his all him, you know, doing all that terrible shit came up. ah like a new thing came up and then they're like, dude, you got to go.
01:50:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah really bad
01:50:34
Brother Devon
Yeah, you got to go.
01:50:34
slimeballsteve
Mm
01:50:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
really bad
01:50:36
Brother Devon
So, yeah. So I guess my my point is, though, is like, yeah, it's like, is this going to be almost like a rehab shop? Like, well, listen, he did a lot of good stuff, blah, blah, blah.
01:50:48
Brother Devon
um But then, like later on, apparently they're saying that ah this is like a double burial of Vince McMahon.
01:50:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah,
01:50:57
Brother Devon
And they're like, no, this guy's a fucking monster.
01:50:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
really bad.
01:51:01
slimeballsteve
-hmm
01:51:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
Really bad.
01:51:01
Brother Devon
um
01:51:02
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think the Netflix deal was contingent on him not being there.
01:51:06
slimeballsteve
I wouldn't be surprised, yeah.
01:51:06
Brother Devon
I mean, at that point, they I mean, it was getting to a point where they're like, dude, he cannot be involved. But like. Yeah, I think this is by the Tiger King guy.
01:51:19
Brother Devon
um
01:51:19
slimeballsteve
Yes, I think that is correct.
01:51:20
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh boy.
01:51:21
Brother Devon
And, and you know, I'll be, I'll be honest. I'm almost disappointed because there's probably nothing in this that's going to surprise me or probably you Steve, because we're like, Oh no.
01:51:33
Brother Devon
Yeah. This is, this is old news.
01:51:35
slimeballsteve
Yeah, we just hear the stuff.
01:51:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
I mean, I've heard some things, like I've read things about burritos and yelling at people and pranks, like all that stuff.
01:51:41
Brother Devon
I know, but it's just like, yeah, you've heard all those stories, but.
01:51:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like he wouldn't eat stop eating burritos or something.
01:51:50
Brother Devon
Yeah, or like if you sneeze, he freaks out on you and shit.
01:51:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, I remember that one.
01:51:53
slimeballsteve
Hmm.
01:51:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah.
01:51:56
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:51:56
slimeballsteve
But like if it's if it's going to be a burial, that's going to be interesting seeing all the people who like played ball for years suddenly just drop it and just like dump the shit on them.
01:52:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
They're gonna come out.
01:52:04
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:52:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
You think they got the rock?
01:52:08
Brother Devon
And also like Vince McMahon was like.
01:52:09
MERLINCHESTNUT
You think they got the rock?
01:52:11
slimeballsteve
They're bigger than him now, yeah, like.
01:52:11
Brother Devon
Yeah, yeah.
01:52:13
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, I mean, do you think they got it from the documentary?
01:52:16
slimeballsteve
I mean, he's like he runs that one company, the TKO company.
01:52:19
Brother Devon
I think he's in the trailer, isn't he?
01:52:21
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh boy.
01:52:21
slimeballsteve
He might be, yeah.
01:52:22
Brother Devon
ah Yeah.
01:52:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
Juicy, juicy, juicy, juicy.
01:52:25
Brother Devon
Yeah, or or it like might be old footage from like other interviews and all that shit, but like because what he says, like what he famously says, Vince McMahon, is he says, I play a character called Mr. McMahon.
01:52:39
Brother Devon
Mr. McMahon is a piece of shit. He's this, he's that. He's you know, he's all this other stuff. He's like Vince McMahon's a grandfather, normal guy, but he's like, the character is Mr.
01:52:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
Hmm Yeah, but that applies his private life yeah Hey, man, it's like Heisenberg maybe put that on you just got it's got power trip and he was like I'm gonna be familiar and I'm Heisenberg
01:52:50
Brother Devon
McMahon. He's a fucking terror. He's a terror. And you know, it's like, yeah, but you're actually a real life piece of shit.
01:53:00
slimeballsteve
Yeah, it's like, bro, that's you. That's just...
01:53:02
Brother Devon
That's actually you.
01:53:07
Brother Devon
Yeah. Oh, yeah. But, uh, no, it's gonna be, yeah, it's gonna be fascinating. I think six episodes coming in December, I think this year, for sure.
01:53:21
slimeballsteve
I think so. Yeah, that's the thing is like I am interested about that deal because it's like I don't want to watch Peacock. So like if they are getting like that content, I might watch it more regularly than I do now, which is nothing.
01:53:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
Man, i really I really don't want to watch Peacock ever. I'm the same boat, man.
01:53:36
slimeballsteve
No, dude, anytime anytime anything's on Peacock, I'm like, I don't want to touch that.
01:53:36
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:53:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
No thanks.
01:53:42
Brother Devon
You know, you know, it's fun, though, is like because I have peacock um like with my Comcast subscription or whatever.

slimeballsteve
Yeah, same.
01:53:51
Brother Devon
So like when I'm sitting there, like picking my nose and it's like a Saturday or whatever. And I'm like, oh, Royal Rumble's on. And it's fun to just fire it up because I do have it, you know.
01:54:03
Brother Devon
But yeah, you're like, ooh, so much lands on. Let me fire up Netflix.
01:54:08

01:56:52
MERLINCHESTNUT
It was a bad idea from the gecko.

I mean, ever since Goofy died in Kingdom Hearts, he's just been kind of a loose, loose cannon.
01:56:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
He's a mess. He needs to get a rehab.
01:56:59
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
01:57:00

slimeballsteve
That's so sad.
01:57:17
Brother Devon
It's just sad.
01:57:18
slimeballsteve
and so said
01:57:19
MERLINCHESTNUT
I tried!
01:57:19
Brother Devon
Let's see. And then there's a Silent Hill to remake announcement that's going to let you turn off the old UI and apply the old school 90s filter, John.
01:57:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
Can you please turn off the game that you made so I can play the game I want?
01:57:33
slimeballsteve
I would've played the good one. Dude, I talked to Tim. Guys, i tried to I tried to talk to Tim about what we talked about last week.
01:57:40
Brother Devon
What do you say?
01:57:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
What? Yeah, I think I was there for that.
01:57:43
slimeballsteve
Tim said to me about about the the discussion we had on last podcast.
01:57:44
Brother Devon
What do you say?
01:57:44
Phantom Libtard
um about what yeah corpora
01:57:46
Brother Devon
like vibe viber or story and all that.
01:57:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, what'd he say?
01:57:50
slimeballsteve
And Tim said, I don't wanna get in between you rats.
01:57:52
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, boy.
01:57:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, boy.
01:57:56
slimeballsteve
And then he hung up on me, so.
01:57:57
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh, shit.
01:57:57
Brother Devon
oh well
01:57:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
He said he called me a rat?
01:58:00
slimeballsteve
He called us rats.
01:58:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
He called us rats?
01:58:02
Phantom Libtard
rats go back in your fucking corporate cheese hole
01:58:02
slimeballsteve
Yeah, he said, go back in your cheese hole, bitch.
01:58:05
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oh!
01:58:05
slimeballsteve
And I was like, oh my God. Oh my God.
01:58:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
God, I'm gonna talk to him. I got a letter I've been writing him for a while now.
01:58:12
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
01:58:12
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, dude.
01:58:13
Phantom Libtard
There's a theory i want to that's floating around that I want to pick Tim's brain about that I saw.
01:58:15
slimeballsteve
A game theory.
01:58:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah
01:58:23
Brother Devon
Yeah, I like this theory.
01:58:23
Phantom Libtard
Somebody saw like ah like a letter. I don't know what the context of the letter was, but it was like similar but different than the same one that was in the original game. So there's like a theory going around that that Silent Hill 2 remake is It's like Final Fantasy 7 remake where it's actually like a sequel to the original.
01:58:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
boy
01:58:45
Phantom Libtard
Backed by the the theory that James is hell in Silent Hill is like just looped like he just keeps going through it over and over again.
01:58:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
Boy Cool Tim's gonna love that No, no, no, no I was being sarcastic no Yes, yes, yes he's gonna throw up he's gonna throw up Don't bring it up
01:58:56
Phantom Libtard
You think he'll like that? You think he'll that'll make him play the game? Yeah. Oh, yeah oh, you mean he's going to hate it? You mean he's going to hate it? OK.
01:59:03
slimeballsteve
Dude, he was, he was very adamant on the, he was like, he's like, Silent Hill 2, what are you gonna do?
01:59:04
Phantom Libtard
All right, so I won't bring it up. I won't bring it up.
01:59:13
slimeballsteve
He's like, you can't, they made it longer.
01:59:16
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah.
01:59:16
slimeballsteve
And it's like, he's like, I don't trust them with that material.
01:59:17
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah.
01:59:20
Brother Devon
did I mean, Tim's in the position where
01:59:20
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, it's it's longer. And then I i posted the, i posted the they they released the track list for the soundtrack and it's like 50 tracks with different titles of the, so that that can't feel good either.
01:59:35
Brother Devon
Yeah.
01:59:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
James gets a pizza with his friend.
01:59:37
Brother Devon
I mean, like just their visit, there's literally nothing that they could do to make him happy, which is part of the fun. Let's be honest.
01:59:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yes.
01:59:45
Phantom Libtard
But also, it's like like what ah like I don't know i don't know what um like if they just if they just remade it like you know frame by frame, but with updated graphics or whatever.
01:59:45
slimeballsteve
You're right, you're right.
01:59:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Great the nature of a remake you're always you're gonna get complaints both ways.
01:59:54
Brother Devon
You get people complaining that that's.
01:59:56
Phantom Libtard
like that would be That would be bad. I think that would be bad, too. you know
01:59:59
Brother Devon
I agree.
02:00:03
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's just the way it is.
02:00:04
slimeballsteve
I think the thing about Silent Hill 2 is if that HD remake wasn't so bad or not each day remake, when they did the HD remasters back on the 360 and stuff like that, they were so bad.
02:00:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
I
02:00:15
Phantom Libtard
Did they do one for Silent Hill 2?
02:00:17
slimeballsteve
Yeah, they did.
02:00:17
Phantom Libtard
I don't think they did.
02:00:18
slimeballsteve
They did. And they they literally like some of the signs in the city use Comic Sans like.
02:00:24
Brother Devon
Yeah. Yeah. That's, I mean, there's like, it's so infamously.
02:00:27
Phantom Libtard
Was that like a remaster? That was a remaster?
02:00:29
slimeballsteve
it was it was ah It was a remaster because, um you know, they were like, we're gonna do this for like a year of Silent Hill. And apparently the Silent Hill 2 has, they lost a lot of the original stuff for it.
02:00:43
slimeballsteve
So they had to go in and kind of try and do their best.
02:00:44
Brother Devon
Yeah. They had like a version that was like 60% done or something.
02:00:44
Phantom Libtard
Oh man, it got Toy Story, Toy Story 2'd.
02:00:47
Brother Devon
Yeah.
02:00:48
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
02:00:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
What do you got against Comic Sans?
02:00:50
slimeballsteve
Oh, I love the Comic Sans.
02:00:51
MERLINCHESTNUT
Okay, yeah.
02:00:51
slimeballsteve
It always makes me laugh.
02:00:52
MERLINCHESTNUT
Makes me giggle whenever I see it, personally.
02:00:54
Brother Devon
I think the vibes of Comic Sans are more important.
02:00:54
slimeballsteve
but he It's more of a papyrus vibe, I feel, Silent Hill.
02:00:58
MERLINCHESTNUT
ah
02:01:00
slimeballsteve
um But the thing is, it's like I we are very lucky because the Silent Hill fan community is like that fervent that they went the lengths of the Star Wars.
02:01:01
MERLINCHESTNUT
Twittily winks, twittily winks.
02:01:13
slimeballsteve
The specialized editions were like those fans took those like the footage and like brought it to HD. They updated it and like people took the PC version of Silent Hill 2 and they made it HD.
02:01:27
slimeballsteve
They updated it. They updated like daily. Like I get like updates on their Twitter.
02:01:32
Phantom Libtard
Wait, so does that mean that like because my whole thing, too, was like how they could really just win everybody over is real like just put the original game inside the this release, you know?
02:01:46
slimeballsteve
If Konami wanted to, they could make a deal with GOG or somebody to just release Silent Hill 2 and use the enhanced editions like files
02:01:52
MERLINCHESTNUT
Conk.
02:01:59
slimeballsteve
Because that's what they they've done with other games.
02:01:59
Phantom Libtard
Oh, because they have them, yeah. Yeah.
02:02:02
slimeballsteve
Yeah, they could just do that. They they did that for Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines.
02:02:04
Phantom Libtard
It's like it's like 30 megabytes, like that's all it it is or something like that. Like it's it's absurd how small the files are. Just release the the original game on there, you know, then there.
02:02:14
slimeballsteve
Did you see that ah they also recently put Resident Evil, the original ones, the the PlayStation ones, Resident Evil 1, 2, and 3 on GOG.
02:02:22
Brother Devon
Oh.
02:02:22
slimeballsteve
You can play them on PC all updated.
02:02:23
Phantom Libtard
How dare they remake Resident Evil one?
02:02:26
slimeballsteve
No, they didn't remake it, they didn't remake it. It is...
02:02:29
Phantom Libtard
How dare they Release Resident Evil 1 director's cut months after the original was released.
02:02:36
slimeballsteve
i am I am so scared of this remake, but also I am so interested. I am so interested to dunk my head in and see what this beast is.
02:02:42
Phantom Libtard
I mean, I'm going to play. Yeah, I'm going to play it.
02:02:46
MERLINCHESTNUT
same Same here. and I kinda am too.
02:02:49
Phantom Libtard

02:02:50
Brother Devon
I'm excited to like finally be able to play it.
02:02:53
Phantom Libtard
Oh, shut the fuck up, Devin.
02:02:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
a
02:02:56
slimeballsteve
Come on, come on, be nice.
02:02:57
Phantom Libtard
Shut up, shut up.
02:02:58
Brother Devon
Serious. I'm serious.
02:03:00
Phantom Libtard
Oh, shut up, Evan.
02:03:02
Brother Devon
Oh, fuck off.
02:03:03
Phantom Libtard
How dare you? How dare you play silent play one of my games?
02:03:08
Brother Devon
Like a play, ah ah an actual playable version of this game. The Silent Hill 2 stinks on fucking toast.
02:03:13
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, Tim, ah he had he gave me the enhanced edition. I just have to figure out how to fucking play it on my computer.
02:03:19
slimeballsteve
is that There's a lot ah a lot of hoops you gotta jump through for that.
02:03:23
Phantom Libtard
He's like, oh, it's easy.
02:03:23
slimeballsteve
but
02:03:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
so Jump dude some hoops.
02:03:24
Phantom Libtard
It's just this 15 step process that you got. I'm like, OK, that's awesome.
02:03:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
Uninstall windows. What?
02:03:30
Brother Devon
Yeah.
02:03:30
slimeballsteve
Yeah, he's just trying to Yeah.
02:03:30
Phantom Libtard
I just don't I just don't know.
02:03:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
Uninstall windows?
02:03:31
Phantom Libtard
I just don't understand. Like it's weird when you remake a game that you've never actually like released multiple times. Anyway, it's weird. It's kind of weird, I think.
02:03:42
Phantom Libtard
I don't know. Because like this, they're like like it's it's it came out so long ago.
02:03:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah.
02:03:49
Phantom Libtard
Like it would make more sense if they did like Final Fantasy IV remake, right?
02:03:52
slimeballsteve
Mhm.
02:03:54
Phantom Libtard
Because we've seen it on however many platforms already, right? I know that Final Fantasy 7. Oh, wait. Excuse me, David. I know it's not a remake, even though it's called Final Fantasy 7.
02:04:07
Phantom Libtard
It's definitely not a remake.
02:04:07
MERLINCHESTNUT
yeah
02:04:09
Phantom Libtard
Let me think.
02:04:09
Brother Devon
It's a Right,
02:04:09
Phantom Libtard
Let me think of it. Let me think of another example. Resident Four is a bad example because they've released that 35 times a year since it came out.
02:04:18
Brother Devon
I mean there is an original, um you know reme remand master of obviously seven
02:04:23
Phantom Libtard
but Like Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil, Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3, like. They've released that, you know, the same game for multiple different consoles generations, like since PlayStation one, right? To the point where like sometimes it's limited and and those copies for like Xbox 360 and or just end up like GameCube or whatever were were like overpriced or whatever. But like, you know, that's a game that different generations have gotten a chance to play the original. So like a remake is a remake of it is kind of like
02:04:59
Phantom Libtard
Like, I don't know, like justified at that point.
02:05:05
Phantom Libtard
I don't know what I'm trying to say here, like.
02:05:09
Brother Devon
So you're saying like there should be something like it needs to justify this level of remake that they're doing.
02:05:09
Phantom Libtard
Like a game.
02:05:15
Phantom Libtard
I guess because, yeah, I don't know, like. Because, yeah, like you're going like it's a it's a high risk to it's it's high risk because it only came out like what there's only one version of the game basically before.
02:05:23
Brother Devon
Yeah.
02:05:28
Phantom Libtard
And we're going off of like nostalgia and like, you know, people reminiscing about a game that has come out forever ago. It's not like people were able to play.
02:05:40
Brother Devon
yeah
02:05:42
Phantom Libtard
Play it a few times, you know. Like, you know, Resident Evil 2 is like, oh, yeah. You know, we played it. I played it for PlayStation one.
02:05:52
Phantom Libtard
I played it for N64. I played it, you know, play played Resident Evil 2 again on on playstation port PlayStation Portable or whatever.
02:05:58
Brother Devon
Yeah Play the pc port But is that even like yeah, I guess that's more like a re-release though, right because it's not like
02:06:02
Phantom Libtard
Like, yeah, we're due. We need we need a remake of this game.
02:06:09
Phantom Libtard
No, but I mean, that's why they that's why like that's why it was like kind of do that.
02:06:09
Brother Devon
This should large leave its name.
02:06:13
Phantom Libtard
Like we we needed an actual remake of the game because they're they've released the original. They've re-released the original so many times or, you know, a few times before.
02:06:25
Phantom Libtard
Whereas Silent Hill 2, it's like you can't even get your fucking hands on the game if you wanted to play the original right now.
02:06:31
slimeballsteve
Yeah, it was a PlayStation 2 Xbox game.
02:06:32
Phantom Libtard
Which is like, which is kind of silly. Because I'm sure a lot of people that are kind of interested in the game too are like, oh, like maybe I should play the original as well, you know, and see how, see how it works.
02:06:45
Phantom Libtard
Like, you know, there are fucking sickos out there that want to do that, you know.
02:06:50
slimeballsteve
it is It is kind of crazy that like Silent Hill has like stayed in our lexicon, even though like we haven't gotten like a good Silent Hill game since that era of like Silent Hill.
02:07:02
Phantom Libtard
Just like three, I guess.
02:07:03
slimeballsteve
Yeah.
02:07:07
slimeballsteve
like it's like you know people People still talk about like like those games and like Pyramid Head and stuff like that.
02:07:16
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, like now pyramid has just like a fucking gym. He's a gym guy, a gym, bro.
02:07:20
slimeballsteve
Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's just.
02:07:20
Phantom Libtard
Like that's a pyramid.
02:07:21
Brother Devon
He's got an eight pack, dude.
02:07:21
Phantom Libtard
That's a pyramid. It's like Jim Bros are like they they have pyramid head muscle shirts on when they go to the gym like that.
02:07:32
Brother Devon
Yeah.
02:07:32
Phantom Libtard
It's like how punter like cops have punisher skulls on their on their cop cars where it's like, you don't get it, dude.
02:07:36
Brother Devon
Yeah, I mean, he literally had he had ah his juicy ass need to be patched out of dead by daylight.
02:07:38
Phantom Libtard
You'll get it.
02:07:44
Brother Devon
Or something, right?
02:07:44
Phantom Libtard
Oh, man.
02:07:45
Brother Devon
But yeah.
02:07:45
slimeballsteve
They did, you right.
02:07:48
Phantom Libtard
Yes, I don't know, man, because, yeah, it would be nice to just, you know, fucking spend ten dollars on the original game.
02:07:49
Brother Devon
Oh.
02:07:56
slimeballsteve
yeah
02:07:56
Phantom Libtard
I don't know this year or last year to play through it.
02:08:00
slimeballsteve
No matter what like you would make money if if you just put out both Now
02:08:01
Phantom Libtard
It's just as. I just feel like Konami is just Konami is not him. Konami is not does not have that dog and then that Capcom does, you know.
02:08:12
slimeballsteve
they got the Plinko money man Yeah
02:08:12
Brother Devon
i mean Honestly, you're not wrong.
02:08:12
Phantom Libtard
It's like a part like a like a part of it feels like it's a cash grab, you know, because they see the remakes of these horror games coming out. They see Resident Evil 4 fucking, you know, like the world on fire again.
02:08:27
Phantom Libtard
And then, you know, and they're like, oh, we have a popular, very popular like fucking
02:08:33
slimeballsteve
We got scary game.
02:08:33
Phantom Libtard
survival horror game, that's, you know. Yeah, we have Silent Hill, too, which is like, you know, a classic. Let's fucking let's let's spend the least amount of money on a studio to fucking make it.
02:08:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
imagine Imagine us if we were as resident, pun intended, about Resident Evil 4 Remake, as Tim is about Silent Hill 2.
02:08:48
slimeballsteve
Hmm.
02:08:55
Phantom Libtard
No, but I I I kind of was, too.
02:08:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
Imagine if the world that we would live in, you were, really?
02:09:00
Phantom Libtard
a little bit like, you know, like we would remember they were there were the um remember the whole thing. It was like a fucking robot Salazar's not like the the the whole, you know, it was still in this, but like we but but like, you know, I was like, I hope they don't they don't lose that aspect of the game.
02:09:09
MERLINCHESTNUT
I know, but that was more just silliness. like
02:09:18
Phantom Libtard
Like, I hope they don't try to make it serious, more serious.
02:09:19
Brother Devon
Yeah.
02:09:22
Phantom Libtard
Like, because, yeah, because Resident Evil 2 is pretty fucking serious, seriously fucking scary, you know.
02:09:22
MERLINCHESTNUT
more serious, you know?
02:09:22
Brother Devon
Yeah. oh
02:09:28
Brother Devon
Yeah.
02:09:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, I get that.
02:09:29
Brother Devon
Also like, also though, like.
02:09:30
MERLINCHESTNUT
But like, I think we were a little bit happy that it was being made by them, you know, like the people that were making it.
02:09:34
Phantom Libtard
it would Yeah, yeah, yeah, like it was like yeah, cuz what what happened they dropped the Resident Evil 3 team and they put the Resident Evil 2 team on it or something like 1-4 Yeah, but also the the
02:09:36
slimeballsteve
Mm-hmm On for ya
02:09:44
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, we knew, we knew.
02:09:44
Brother Devon
Yeah. And but just like, you know, like two and three remakes, I don't know if you whatever feel about three, but it's like Capcom still had a really good history of remaking their own games where like Lueber Blueber is just a lot of concerns there.
02:10:00
Phantom Libtard
Resident Evil 4 also was was low risk like in comparison to Silent Hill 2 right because Yeah, cuz like if it didn't do well, like if it was a failure like it's not like, you know, I Don't know.
02:10:06
slimeballsteve
yeah
02:10:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
Um, yeah, yeah.
02:10:06
Brother Devon
Yeah.
02:10:09
MERLINCHESTNUT
I, yeah.
02:10:16
Phantom Libtard
It's it's not like it would have mattered because You know then you know the fucking and purists or whatever would just be like, yeah, it's whatever Well, I guess like it's all to two isn't is it is it high risk?
02:10:28
Phantom Libtard
I guess I don't know it's
02:10:31
MERLINCHESTNUT
Resident Evil 4 is a masterpiece.
02:10:32
Phantom Libtard
It's high risk because it's not like.
02:10:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
Like the original is a masterpiece.
02:10:34
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, the original the original is a masterpiece, yeah.
02:10:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
But I trusted, i I trusted those people because I played their games before and I knew they they, I knew they could do it.
02:10:37
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, and I just recently played it too. Like yeah, that's the thing I would. I'd recently played it like a year by year.
02:10:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
There was no, there was no, there was very little doubt in my mind that team wouldn't make a good game, a great game actually.
02:10:56
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, I think that I think what was. What sold it for me was the one the trailer that they released. And like think of I forgot what what event it was.
02:11:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
They got Steve telling me the only thing Bloober Team made was some sort of game called...
02:11:08
Phantom Libtard
I think it was a PlayStation event.
02:11:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
Odd World? Yeah, I don't...
02:11:16
slimeballsteve
Yeah, they did ah Abe's Odyssey.
02:11:18
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, I mean, that's it. That's all we got. And I love Odd World, but come on.
02:11:21
slimeballsteve
It's a world.
02:11:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
And I'm just an Abe in it.
02:11:26
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, the state of the state of play in twenty twenty two. When you heard when you hear this, you heard the Spanish music.
02:11:35
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, come on.
02:11:36
Phantom Libtard
You know, like that's when I was like, OK, all right. All right, we got where they're cooking.
02:11:39
Brother Devon
we're We're in a good spot here.
02:11:41
Phantom Libtard
They're cooking here.
02:11:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
There was no Spanish music moment for Soundheld 2.
02:11:42
Phantom Libtard
They're cooking.
02:11:45
slimeballsteve
it that is That is kind of worrying where it's like, they yeah, you immediately knew when you saw the Resident Evil 4 trailer, yeah.
02:11:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
Remake.
02:11:53
slimeballsteve
you You were in for a safe ride.
02:11:54
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, you're like, therere yeah, there're I was like, OK. I was like, all right, but I think they're I think they're on the right track here. I think I'm i'm good. But ah yeah, but with silo too, when they revealed that it was like, I don't know, this is kind of gross.
02:12:09
Phantom Libtard
This is kind of gross what they're showing.
02:12:09
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, not right. Something's not right.
02:12:13
Phantom Libtard
Like, and I guess they've changed some of those things since then, like the way James looks and. Because I think what what was the controversy before that he was older or younger or something like?
02:12:25
Brother Devon
Oh, like initially.
02:12:25
Phantom Libtard
I don't know. Yeah, initially when they first revealed it.
02:12:28
Brother Devon
It was like they didn't look the way his hair looked. That was it. we At the end of the day, we're still talking about gainers, you know?
02:12:32
Phantom Libtard
The way the like the tone the tone of his voice or whatever.
02:12:36
Brother Devon
They were like, his hair looks funny.
02:12:38
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't like the way any of your hairs look, but you don't see me complaining.
02:12:38
Brother Devon
I don't.
02:12:41
Brother Devon
That's jealousy.
02:12:43
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't care. I'm like, oh, I would do so much more with that.
02:12:47
Brother Devon
I have no idea what they're doing.
02:12:47
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's what I'm thinking.
02:12:54
Brother Devon
I'd make that a fauxhawk. They're crazy.
02:12:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
What you doing with that dumb haircut? That's all I think.
02:13:01
Brother Devon
Yeah, it's just I think honestly. Like. Most people probably won't even care that, like, so I would do like the right. Oh, cool. This is like a good. I heard about this game. I like this game. Like when I at the end of the day, they were like, I heard Silent Hill 2 was really good. I played it and I really enjoyed it.
02:13:24
Brother Devon
You know, you're going to have the maniacs, the Tim's of the world that are just going to hate that it exists.
02:13:29
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think he's a Hulkamaniac, if anything, but I wouldn't call him a maniac.
02:13:35
slimeballsteve
I think like the best case scenario is like this game follows Silent Hill to a T. The worst case scenario is Bloober Team bloobs all over it and blube it to hell.
02:13:45
Brother Devon
I want them to, I want, I want to say that and be like,
02:13:45
MERLINCHESTNUT
And you know, and the name is not helping.
02:13:47
slimeballsteve
Dude.
02:13:48
MERLINCHESTNUT
The name is not helping them.
02:13:49
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, but yeah, but the thing is, like, if they if they follow it to a tee, like, is that is that good, too? Because think about they've changed. They changed they change like a bunch of different little things in Resident Evil 4 remake, but they were all like really good changes that that added to to the experience.
02:14:01
Brother Devon
Yeah.
02:14:05
slimeballsteve
I can't, I can't trust Bloober Team after I saw what they did with their other games.
02:14:05
Phantom Libtard
You know.
02:14:08
Phantom Libtard
I think that's where that's that's what it boils down to, is the studio.
02:14:09
slimeballsteve
They just, they don't have the maturity to handle concepts like that.
02:14:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
They don't have the finesse. They don't have the finesse, the little, little things.
02:14:16
slimeballsteve
They would be really good with maybe like a booger man.
02:14:23
MERLINCHESTNUT
I don't want them touching that.
02:14:23
slimeballsteve
ah Maybe, maybe like Chuck Rock.
02:14:24
MERLINCHESTNUT
No, no, no.
02:14:24
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, because it's not like they remade, they did a remake of Silent Hill 1 and it was really good.
02:14:27
MERLINCHESTNUT
There you go. Thank you.
02:14:32
slimeballsteve
Right.
02:14:32
Phantom Libtard
Like Resident Evil did with with all the other remakes that came before 4.
02:14:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah.
02:14:36
slimeballsteve
You they they handed the keys to the best game of that franchise to this.
02:14:41
MERLINCHESTNUT
Which is weird.
02:14:43
slimeballsteve
Like they didn't go for like the test run.
02:14:44
Phantom Libtard
So it is high risk. It is high risk then.
02:14:46
slimeballsteve
I would say so.
02:14:48
Phantom Libtard
Because this could be like, the reason I'm saying it's high risk is if this is a super flop, butre We're probably never going to see another son of a game ever again.
02:14:56
slimeballsteve
No, no.
02:14:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
Probably.
02:14:56
Phantom Libtard
I think in my opinion, because like we we haven't seen one in a while and like this could be like it's almost like um I guess Resident Evil seven in that sense where the franchise is almost dead.
02:15:08
MERLINCHESTNUT
Make it or break it.
02:15:11
Phantom Libtard
Like, is this going to be a good game or no? And it was really good. So like. I feel like a Resident Evil seven was ah like a fucking commercial flop.
02:15:22
Phantom Libtard
like it would have been or a were a critical flop to like it would have been we probably would have wouldn't probably a while before we saw another Resident Evil game even if re the remakes were not we would have never seen Resident Evil 2 remake probably right
02:15:25
slimeballsteve
Hmm.
02:15:32
slimeballsteve
Well, remember. Do do remember that Capcom had the sense to put out Resident Evil HD remake re make like in like was that 2014, 2015, right when the PlayStation four came out that that I was like, oh, yeah, this game still slaps.
02:15:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
Oof. Mmm. Yup.
02:15:53
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yes, it does.
02:15:54
Phantom Libtard
Yeah.
02:15:55
MERLINCHESTNUT
That remake's amazing, too.
02:15:56
slimeballsteve
Yeah, that's one of the best remakes ever made.
02:15:59
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yes. So, the GameCube Resident Evil.
02:16:00
Phantom Libtard
Which one, the first one?
02:16:01
slimeballsteve
The GameCube one?
02:16:02
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, no, that's yeah, that's all.
02:16:03
slimeballsteve
Mm-hmm.
02:16:04
Phantom Libtard
Yeah, that's cheap yeah, it's like because that's a little bit that's that's that's what they need. I guess that's what they should be doing with Resident Evil or with Silent Hill 2, right?
02:16:14
MERLINCHESTNUT
I think that's the way to do it.
02:16:14
slimeballsteve
They could have just released that enhanced edition to test the waters. They could have.
02:16:18
Phantom Libtard
Right. Because also Resident Evil because Resident Evil gamecube remake remake is not it's not it's not just a remaster like a graphical overhaul like they actually built it from the ground up but like made it the same game you know they made the same game and added crimson heads and yeah they they made same game aticrus head yeah it made it made it yeah out there out there
02:16:31
slimeballsteve
Right.
02:16:33
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yes.
02:16:33
slimeballsteve
Mm-hmm.
02:16:34
MERLINCHESTNUT
That's the way it should be done.
02:16:37
MERLINCHESTNUT
Yeah, Curzon heads fucking rule too.
02:16:41
slimeballsteve
Oh, they added Lisa too.
02:16:42
MERLINCHESTNUT
and Oh, oh you made the same game it made it scarier. Oh, whoa you how dare you?
02:16:46
slimeballsteve
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
02:16:49
MERLINCHESTNUT
who
02:16:50
Phantom Libtard
Well, yeah, so that's the thing. Like, do you think that's a possibility with with silo to remake then, Chris? Like, do you think they can do that?
02:16:56
MERLINCHESTNUT
love man
02:16:57
Phantom Libtard
Do you think it blueber like, i like, take take the take the um take the variable of of the studio out of the equation here and just think like, do you think it's po like, would it would it be a good game if if they remade silo to from the ground up, but just, you know, added crimson heads and so to speak.
02:17:06
MERLINCHESTNUT
See
02:17:15
MERLINCHESTNUT
and No, no Like it's a different tone like and it's a different story Like it just doesn't like that in Resident Evil makes sense.
02:17:17
Phantom Libtard
OK.
02:17:20
Phantom Libtard
Right, right, right, right, right.
02:17:25
MERLINCHESTNUT
You're in a spooky mansion There's another spooky element to the spooky mansion like it fits Yeah, you're fucking dead these things are chasing you Yes, that's Let's say
