Character Introductions and Roles

00:00:37
Speaker
to play.
00:00:37
Speaker
Hey guys, how you doing? It's Lee. i've been It's been a while since being on the casting. Things like happens, but I'm back and I'm excited to continue our rugby player one and bring some shenanigans to our team. So yeah, let's get let's let's get it going. Hi, I'm Luke and it's been a while being a cast on things. So I'll be playing Balderdash today. Currently on Freyr, I believe. Hi, I'm Davida. She was texting. I was texting. I don't know. um I played Vita. Oh, I'm Arwen in a Wasp outfit and we're about to go shopping. So I'm excited. Yes. And our amazing guests. Why don't you introduce yourself? Thank you for joining us once again. Hi, I'm Mike. How's it going? I am McMaster 91 and I am currently a Lucky Charms elf. Not elf. Lucky Charms. What's the word?
00:01:33
Speaker
Leprechaun. Leprechaun, there you go. Good shot. I am, yeah. Amazing.

Game Mechanics Discussion

00:01:40
Speaker
And that is us for now. I'm gonna rewind.
00:01:48
Speaker
I want you to roll perception. We're gonna rewind the clock for a second. okay And I'm gonna ask you to roll perception. Okay, ah that'll be a 12, Jess. I'll say with a 12, that's fine. You see Luke and Davida fall into the Harry Potter game. Okay, the door, like, into the game. Yeah, into the game for them to play. And at that moment, as you see them fall in, you see a clock appear on your, I don't know, your field of vision that starts at 30 minutes and it starts counting down. OK. Oh, so because because because we're in a video game, is there like a pause menu so I can look at settings and see what this means?
00:02:32
Speaker
No. Okay. Um, 30 minutes. This is like, if you think of like dead space, the way they pause menu in dead space where it doesn't pause the game. oh Okay. Yeah. That's pretty funny. Okay. Oh, that'd be mad. Um, okay. So you I remember briefly, I can remember like you have to have the keys to go into doors. So I don't have a key to actually go into. okay But this this clock never came up whenever we went into any of the things. No, that's weird. Oh, I don't want to jump into the door because I can't go into the door. See, the problem is with your universe, everything wants to kill me. So this probably is a ah clock of death. So I'm like ticking me down to like me being logged out or something.

In-Game Challenges and Strategies

00:03:15
Speaker
You know, I'm just trying to like figure it out.
00:03:17
Speaker
You can roll insight. Yes, please. I need it. OK, my insights trash. I got a five. So I'm not that smart. You don't know. You don't know. I'm freaking out. I'm like, what is time? What is this? It's not even a real thing. What am I doing? OK, is there anyone else like around hanging around outside these loads of people? let's say you see like I don't know it's like a clan of the justice league society or a justice society you see you see another clan uh like Michael Jackson and his zombie a zombie crew that's cool you see one lone skeleton you see like the little fruit emoji like the faces not emoji the fruit the fruit guys that are on a line you see that's like with the faces so you can go up to any of those
00:04:05
Speaker
okay i think for banners i would love to go up to michael jackson and the zombies and go through my emote wheel and start doing the friller dance just to like try and like blend in and say hey so i'll say rome persuasion or real performance i think i think or i'll take that 18 I am not going to portray Michael Jackson because I have my own views on him. You see Michael Jackson join your thriller dance and some of the other zombies, but you see like one lone zombie just like.
00:04:37
Speaker
Hey man. Quick question. I'm new to this whole like game thing. Um, what happens, uh, if you get like a clock appear on your, like your front screen, cause like I'm hanging out and just like walking around and all all of a sudden a clock has appeared on my screen. What's what what has has that happened to you guys at all or anything like that? I'm going to roll for that. Nice. I don't want to get like murdered by Michael Jackson. That'd be hilarious. There, here's the T20. Okay, let's see. The zombie's like, oh yeah, you, how many keys do you have? My team have a lot of keys. I personally don't. They've been doing a lot of the challenges because I'm a bit of a- If you see a clock, you have to have a minimum of five keys and then your chest starts counting down. Right. Okay. So that means I'm assuming if my team
00:05:27
Speaker
Oh no. So you have 30 minutes to finish the rest of the to get whatever keys to finish this game. Okay, so I'm praying that my team don't die because they have all the keys in there because we've already gone through this before and we've lost a lot of keys. What weapon do I have if they come at me? I'm trying to remember. They can't. I'll tell you right now, it's very obvious you don't have to worry about that because they can't come at you. You're not in a battle royale situation. Okay, that's good then. Okay, that's fine. That's sick. Okay, I'll go stand by the monitor then and just like watch them play Quidditch I guess.
00:06:03
Speaker
are Now you are outside of the game going to the portal to the moon with everyone. You see Mike, you now have the second key. Davida has found the portal and now my caveats is what I was saying before. As this is the last key, I will no longer be nudging you guys. You choose this adventure now. Now there will be some events that will happen that could nudge you in a direction that's up to you to

Shopping for In-Game Items

00:06:39
Speaker
choose. But I am not going to say, Oh, maybe you should roll insight here. Oh, perception could be nice here. Rolled, you know, like unless the rules say rolled strength check or strength save deck save, I will not guide you otherwise.
00:06:55
Speaker
So if you ask me, could I do this? I'm just going to shrug. If you say, I'm going to roll in inside that completely, that's great. I'm not, but I'm not going to say yes or no of if you should or shouldn't do that. Cool. Just to make it a little bit more of a tension. I mean, not that you have it now. So there's that. And now we begin with everyone going through the portal to the moon marketplace. And I've been, I've been trying to figure out a name for like the Costco of the place, but I, I just like, I was like,
00:07:37
Speaker
Did I do like all shops? Do I do it backwards? Do I like? I don't know. So ah what we're going to do is if you want to shop for a specific thing, there are possibly separate shops, but there is a mega shop in this place. I'll just call it the mega store. That's it. not The Omega store.
00:08:03
Speaker
Oh, that's it. That's the Omega store. There we go. Yeah. So you guys step foot into the moon and then you see some activity happening in the sky to where Bliss pops up and Davida's name once again pops up on the second key found Sariel. I believe it was Sariel at the beginning. I don't remember. though, even star, sorry, i even star, even star, sorry, forgetting to say my username. Yes, even star is my username. Yes, even star is, again, top of the list is the first one is now. There's a lot more on the first key. Now, there's over 10 now. Okay.
00:08:49
Speaker
Probably over 20 now. But yeah, she's the first one on the second key. And then with that, you see a shooting star shoot off into the distance. Where do you guys want to shop? Frowns. Frowns. OK. No, that's fine. What are you looking for? I don't know. I just remember shopping there before. So I know what I want. That's the Amazon store. I want a pokeball. A pokeball. OK. Now, now do you want a Pokeball or do you want a Pokemon in the Pokeball? Do you want a Pokeball, Ultra Ball, Great Ball, Master Ball? Oh, I'm helping you.
00:09:33
Speaker
Stop it. Get the master ball. I don't, uh, I want a one that has like a Pokemon in it, basically. Okay. Okay. Like, I don't want to capture something. Well, I guess I could, could. Yeah, of course. Well, that's hilarious. I want one pock poke ball that has a Pokemon in it. And then I want other Pokeballs that are empty. Okay. Do you have an idea of master balls? yeah okay see why You want two master balls? two master balls and a pokeball with a Pokemon in it. Okay, so with my list, I mean a pokeball, probably 20 gold. They're not expensive. they You could get loads of them. You can get that. And then, oh, but a master ball. Oh, that's, that's fair. A master ball is probably like 200 gold, actually. Okay, I'll get two.
00:10:26
Speaker
Okay, two two master balls, both empty? Yes. or Okay, you want two empty master balls and then there are a list of Pokemon coming from common to ultra rare. I will ask my my companions what Pokemon is the best Pokemon? That's a varied opinion. ah Yeah, that's that's a million dollars. That's why I'm asking you your opinion. Because, like, I can already fly, so I don't necessarily need a flying Pokémon. But, like, something that's powerful, oh, maybe something that can, like, hypnotize one of, like, Mime, or... Or somebody could put them to sleep, like, you know, jigglypuff. What, use it, like, like, so, like, Cheekypuff, or, like, Abracadabra, or something like that. yes psychic pokemon psychic Yeah, Alright. Yeah. I was just gonna say, like, if you want a frickin' Pokémon, just go Mewtwo. Just go around with a nuclear launcher, like, seriously.
00:11:28
Speaker
my My idea is just get give him also an M40. Just have that. That's like the best visual ever. Just like Mewtwo comes out with a minigun. Like what more do you need in life? Just thinking. I'm also, um I'm just remembering that I'm writing all what Jess wrote down about a shooting star. So I've got an idea of what I want for mine. But it's up to you, honestly, for Pokemon. I feel like there's, like the psychic Pokemons are kind of weird. I guess, I guess, um, the Abercadabra is not that weird. Like, but like, I feel like, uh, what's her name with the purple hair and the red lips is like creepy-ish. I wouldn't necessarily want that. Jinx. Jinx, yeah. Jinx is terrifying. I don't think I would want her, uh, or Mime because Mime is also kind of creepy because he's a clown.
00:12:18
Speaker
But it's probably not a very powerful one either, but like it would be fun to have a cute Pokemon. it Just hypnotize them and then they can do whatever. Or heal. I could get a healing, I could get Chansey. Oh, Chansey would be adorable actually. Thank you. But don't we have loads of extra lives though? Or have you guys come through them? no we still have we still have extra lives okay but we don't have anything that heals lives like heals heals health points we don't have we don't have something that heals health points but we could buy something like that well the GM's gonna gonna answer my question so at some point because i might i think it's a loophole but i don't i think he would like it because of how specific it is as an item but
00:12:59
Speaker
I might be able to sort out the healing issue. It just varies on him. I feel like a Pokémon that can psychically control you is pretty good. That would be cool. Yeah, could Abra do that, right? That's the evolved version. Yeah, because you got Abra. No, isn't it? Alakazam. Alakazam! That's the one I want. With ah with a mustache. yeah yeah going And two spoons. How much for an Alakazam in a Pokeball? Maybe like 500. What's up budget guys? I'm just curious.
00:13:37
Speaker
Well, I have 2000 gold, but that's just my own gold. You guys have $6,000 to share. ah phone tank ah Mike has his own gold. Mike has his own gold that he already has. I ah forgot. You don't even know. ah so basic like and nuke I say rounded to, let's say, an extra thousand. So what was the bait? what what So you got 2,000 in the clan. So each of you got 2,000, well not each, three of you got 2,000 in the clan. And so you six thousand you have Yeah, you have 3,000. You have an extra thousand. yeah Basically, we each got 2,000. Mine is just in my own store. And you guys, your guys's 2,000 is in the shared gold section.

Finalizing Shopping and Entering Halo 3

00:14:24
Speaker
Yeah. Okay, so we'll do two empty master balls, a abracadabra and a pokeball. And then I would like a potato gun, potato launcher gun. How much is for that? 20 gold. Okay. And then I would like a... Potatoes are extra though. Okay. Then with 20 potatoes. Then 20 more gold. Oh my gosh. I was thinking about this yesterday. I was trying to remember the things I wanted.
00:14:54
Speaker
I have all the gum, the potato gum. I'm intrigued. I'm intrigued. Oh, a loaded dice. A loaded dice. Ooh, that is very uncommon and and actually very forbidden. So you won't get that at, ah you won't get that at Froude's.
00:15:14
Speaker
That's a, that's what's it, dark web of this universe, kind of. Yeah, exactly. which you command That's where we've got to go. Yeah. Okay. An illegal mod or whatever. I love that. It's a great fight. Like, I think that's fantastic. But yeah, you can actually, I could actually, instead of rolling my d20, I could use my, my, um, load and die, right? I don't know. um know where am i going Okay. So, um, I want, at Froun's, at Froun's, okay. At Froun's, I would also like to have a, um, gosh, what was it? A, um, yeah, like some, I would like to have some healing potions, I would say, like rest restore. Right. That's, uh, how many? So to restore to full health, I would say how much for five?
00:16:05
Speaker
Now, are you asking of one that restores to any full health, or are you asking one that could restore your specific amount of full health? What's the difference? What do you say? One costs more. One. One of them is more expensive from the sound of it. Okay, so I can't tell what the difference is. Oh, look at this guy. It doesn't work on an audio video. Am I there? Yeah, yeah, you're there. I think. I don't know. Did you go with, go to with her to frowns? I'm probably just, she's running around and I'm just kind of trying to keep behind her, you know? No, you order things on a computer screen, right? Oh god. You're on a computer screen. You're just literally running around with a trolley shoving. No, no, no. She's doing it on a computer screen, yeah.
00:16:47
Speaker
Yeah, but my understanding would be if, if you had somebody who had like 2000 health versus you to fill up the entire 2000 versus however much you have, you know, so oh yeah, I guess, um, I will tell you, there is a selection. So there's health potions that can heal five, 10, 20, 30, 50. Okay. That makes sense. Okay. So then I would like to see if the one that heals 10. or no five because oh yeah about 10 we'll say 10 how much ten is 10 is 100 gold each gold each she's literally just buying she's not a kid in a candy store it's amazing this is less of can i do this and more of like is this within your rules um because you got weird made up rules and you keep changing things all the time um shot fired by the Canadian
00:17:42
Speaker
I'm kidding, I'm sorry. um if If I was rolling to see if I could find my stuff without having to to take the spotlight, and I got like three, two, seven, whatever, every single time I was like, I just had this kind of this. No, I think i think you you go shopping. I don't think you need to roll for that. like if you're okay it It depends on what you want. Like I said, usually, I mean, this is, right this is 100% in open world for the vast amount of things. So it depends on what you want, where to get it. Like I said, there's a mega shop that has most thing. Which is where I'm at right now. Yeah. No, you are at, you were at frowns. That's a different place. What was the, what was the place, Mike? The Omega store. The Omega store.
00:18:33
Speaker
is what has most things. Now you can go to the little shops and try and find the other things, but going to the mega shop, you'd probably find what you need. Omega Store, the last shop you'll ever need to go to. Yeah, I like it. That's so good. I like it. That's fantastic. It says that every time you walk in and out, so it's getting that repetitive, annoying voice, but like the tagline, just like, oh gosh, I've got to stop coming in. This won't be the last time if you don't stop. Yeah, it's just like, I won't come here again, I swear. So anything else? So yeah, those, I'm going to get three of those then actually. Okay. Three of the health potions and I think that'll be it for this store.
00:19:13
Speaker
Let's move on to somebody else for now then. ah who Whom is going where else? What are you looking for, Luke? Continuing my question. If if I like rolled and I got a 20, and then I was like, oh, but I wanted it with this bonus, and I got another 20, can I get that thing? No. matter what it is No. No. if it's not onbe If it's not there, it's not there. This is not like create character creation. This is... Well, this is, I think, like like it's a D and&D magic item. Okay. with so bonus. Okay, what is it? one Before I got too into it, I wanted to get a bag of holding. Okay. um But if something were to ever happen to me, it would send to one of the clan members all the stuff that's in the bag of holding, just so I don't lose it.
00:20:00
Speaker
the no I'd say that with twenty s you know what that exists but it's a hundred grand. is Like that that sounds like to to be able to transfer something without moving it to without dropping it and giving it to somebody else is the biggest luxury you could ever have. Could I get it that it's got... You could have a bag of whole clan object permanence, where like, it just has dropped and whoever picks it up. It's gonna be way out of your price ranges right now. You're gonna have to steal it if you want it. Yeah, there you go. Oh yeah, we could, couldn't we? Also, I will say the last task took about a day, by the way. So you also lose another day.
00:20:52
Speaker
Okay. So we're on four. Okay. No, no, they are on less than four. I have three days left. And then we gain days for completing tasks. No, they had to use days in order to do the last challenge. Oh, I didn't lose a day, but they did. Yeah. Oh, we had to sacrifice a five days in order to get the last key five days each. Fudge. That's insane. Yeah. Mutually is shocked, but we're good. So I will say there are bags of holding yeah on the shelves. They, I would say probably like 300 gold. Are you on the, ome are you at the Omega store? Yeah, i I moved over to the Omega store. Okay. Then yeah, i'm gonna do I mean, there's like infinite amount of a lot of different things. So they have so much stock that it's about 300. Anyone else want anything?
00:21:46
Speaker
I want a superhe but super A super sheep. From worms, yeah, of course. Yeah, yeah, no that's fine. I'll say it's about 100 gold. It doesn't seem too bad. yeah Okay, I'll go with that then. The other one's a bit more pricey, I think. I want a dragon radar from Dragon Ball Z. So this thing locates stuff, so this is where I'm like... I think that's gonna be like a thousand. Yeah, I'll take that, I'm fine with that. Okay. They're the only two things I want. I realized I can't have the infinity hot dog from future armor because that would break the game. Yeah, probably. Yeah, probably. Almost finished it. Oh no, I'll press the button again. Oh, it appears again. Fantastic. I'll keep eating. I'll press it again. You know, infinite loop. Can't have that. No, I'll take, I'll take a super sheep and a dragon radar. Sure. Okay. Uh, Mike, anything? I would like cloud sword.
00:22:38
Speaker
You mean from ah Final Fantasy? but you so I will say because it's a very specific sword, it's also a thousand. All right. How tall is that thing, by the way? I don't know. Comes in eight pieces.
00:22:54
Speaker
okay you can make it as small as you want but it comes in eight pieces just add their children ending like it shows you how big that thing becomes like that thing and just he adds more shit to it it's just insane it's insane okay well we'll raise it to a thousand five hundred then okay well i will no you said a thousand first time i'm sorry no it's fine a thousand's fine i'm just like i don't know i don't know I'm just thinking of the hilarity of it because I'm a leprechaun and I want this giant sword that's like taller than me. yeah hundreds And now as you guys have made your first purchase, you do hear an announcing voice outside and like a crowd, not a crowd, but ah you hear a lot of footsteps outside.
00:23:41
Speaker
wherever you are at. I mean, Luke, you probably patched since you're going back to frowns. You see and hear the CEO of the opposing company that wants it. And he says, did you all follow the shooting star? We know where the last game is. I will give anyone, everyone who tries to stop Evenstar from winning this game 20 billion dollars each. What the?
00:24:24
Speaker
I just realized I wanted something else before we were done jumping. No, no, that's fine. Keep shopping. ah But that's you guys. So, Luke, you hear that clearly. You see that clearly. How much is a tactic new and ah tactical tactical nuke? Probably three grand. Three grand? That's not bad for a tactical nuke, guys. It's not that bad. But it is it is ah expensive. Can't get hold of some of the stuff we want want, but we can get hold of a nuclear missile. That's amazing. Because nukes are like a dime a dozen. play There's loads of different kinds of There's a lot of guys with the color due emotes. Exactly. They want to make money. I'm just kidding. They don't really want to make money at this point. But they want to have people to have fun, so they know nuking is probably like the thing to do. So yeah, you you hear that, Luke, and you see it, and you see the crowd and and people taking off and heading to, well, Davida, you know where it is. Oh, okay. Yeah, I'm buying a droid right now. Okay.
00:25:27
Speaker
Now it is frowns, so he they don't have like a vast majority of ah variety, um but they do have decent ones. Like they have probably the iconic ones, but they're kind of pricey. I was thinking about going to like a more of like an electronics shop or something. Oh, cool. a jo can If they have a droid shop, I will actually go to a droid shop. there there's a There's a mechanic shop that is gears for you. Okay, is there there's there's not like a robotics shop or like a robot store. That's like an all-encompassing one. Gears for you. Gears for you. but There's not like a slightly nicer sounding place. Gears for you. We fix what grinds your gears. There we go, solid. I don't want to go to a mechanic. You can go to the Omega shop or the omega store. I'm skeptical of megastores.
00:26:26
Speaker
So you don't want to go to the rundown shop. but you we'll go to We'll go to a sketchy back alley, but it's perfectly fine to go to a megastore and buy a tactical new one. I'll check the bulletin boards to see if anyone's selling a droid. I'm looking for a BD droid. That's someone from... Oh my gosh. should i ah like there you do see You do see a post. You see an ad post like floating in the sky. the droitopia where we clean, care, and provide the elegant most joy. That's like a store? Yeah. so Okay. And is it here in the same area? Yeah, yeah. Okay. You have to push on the act. Okay. um And it'll take me there, basically? Yeah. And I can come back here easily. Can I roll to figure out if I can come back easily? Insight, I guess. I'll roll insight. 18.
00:27:21
Speaker
18? Yeah, you come back. Okay. I was like, I don't want to like, press this and then be like, now I'm stuck and I can't come back. All right, guys, I'm gonna go shop for a droid. I'll be right back. I push it. You push it and you get like sucked into this this ad and the ad just kind of like creates the wormhole and then kind of goes back to being flat. And you end up in a run down, really broke it up, really trashy, like back alley kind of shop. They have one droid. It looks kind of nice.
00:28:01
Speaker
could have just had Wally. Well, since it is a rundown sort of shady place, I'm going to see if they have loaded dice here then. Oh, yeah, roll. Oh, no, no, yeah. Oh, I'll roll to see. No, you see, you see the droid kind of like his eyes kind of flicker. It's like, yeah, I don't know. A customer. Hello. The droid is the the droid is the store owner. Yes, I am the store owner. Hi, I am looking for An item that may or may not be available, but I'm curious to see if you have any loaded dice. No. Hmm. Okay. Have a good day. What if you came for the droid and then as as you as he's more back kind of go back through the wormhole and you end up back where you were? Okay, that they were bad. I'm not doing that. I'm going to, I'll go to Obega's store if I'm, yeah. Those weren't the droids you were looking for. They weren't the droids I was looking for.
00:28:59
Speaker
This is why you always go to outlet stores, not these shady areas. I'm glad you still got both your kidneys though, Davita. I'm really appreciative. And yeah, so I mean, there's loads of different droids. It like, what, what are you looking for? A BD shoulder droid? Probably fine. Companion droids? Yeah, definitely. They're definitely a companion. I'd say, I'd say like maybe a thousand. Okay.
00:29:29
Speaker
us again so many if i didn't get the potato gun actually would have enough but do you need a grand no i need 40 i need 40 you just need 40 i can can i meet up with davita and give us exchange some money so she can have all the craziness because she buys everything and it's amazing i don't know why she has a potato gun but she's got a potato gun so it's fine don't know why that's going to come into use but i guess it's going to be somewhat Oh, okay. Thank you. Thank you so much. Well, it's in our shared gold. So I'll just, you know, ask. Oh, there we go. Just do that. It's fine. Okay. I forgot about that. So I'll take, uh, I'll take 40 out of our shared gold. Everybody note that. I have one more thing I would like to, I would like a handful of lucky charms, marshmallows, that when I throw them on the ground, they make a rainbow bridge over things.
00:30:19
Speaker
o I mean, like, it's got to be at least 500. I mean, no, let's say let's say it's got to be 750. Like, there's so little and you probably get low. But I'll say you can do that eight times. You can do it eight times with it? no with it but So you throw it, you throw it, it grows. You have enough for eight throws. So you don't just pick up what you throw. So once you pick it up, it disintegrates and dissolves. Yeah. Anyone else getting anything else? No, I've got a busted radar, so I'm pretty happy with that. I'm broke.
00:30:54
Speaker
you push ro Luke, no? Good. OK, what do you want to do?

Entering and Strategizing in Halo 3

00:31:00
Speaker
Is the CEO guy still outside talking to people? No, no, he said his spiel. And now he's just swarmed off. Now he's headed to the game. He's heading. So can we kind of follow them? They don't know. they they they've been gone He's been gone since he made that announcement before you guys continue shopping. Right. But Davida knows where to go. Davida knows where to go. Yeah. All right. Yeah, sweet. Yeah, I believe she told us. Yeah, you also know, but Lee doesn't. But it's fine. In light of going into Halo 3, is there anything you guys want to buy now? Oh, we're going into Halo 3. Is that the last game? Yeah. Oh, shit. Yeah. OK, cool. Super ship. Cool. And I'm assuming we're going to be able to pick up weapons there, right? OK, cool. I do want a predator gauntlet.
00:31:50
Speaker
if but if If Mike can have a freaking class sword, which is one of the most fastest weapons in like RPG like things. I mean, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, what do you call it? I'm gonna minimize it regardless. I mean, I do it. Yeah, there you go. That's the word I'm looking for. I'm gonna nerf it, but. Can it have three things in it? The gauntlet? The predator gauntlet? What are the three things? Knives for close combat, obviously. It also has hilarious, like, cloaking, but you know how the cloak works. oh sure yeah It's so bad. You can see it from different angles. And then also, yeah, ah if ah if them if I lose ah tactical nuke, you know, it's just always good because that's pretty much what it does.
00:32:32
Speaker
You know, it's just a tick in time. Oh, of course. Yeah, that. Yeah, you can have that. So just like that's like standard. Yeah. It's not like it's not like I'm like, oh, yeah, it's got i mean the med kit. It's got this in it. jail You know, as I was like, wait, what are you trying? I think, you know, this place, my cat and that seems rude. Five hundred. yeahll say wait cool am good okay Yeah, Yeah. You guys ready? Do we need armor for this? I have my helmet armor and I think. I have six health. Wait a minute. but If we're playing, I'm trying to think if we're playing Halo three, my thinking is you're going to have overshield and then your health and then the shield recharges. But it depends how much Jess is going to make sure he plays one of his favorite games of all time. So, hmm. I wonder why it's the last challenge.
00:33:24
Speaker
Yeah, I feel like you're going to try and screw us over here. I forgot to do research. Oh yeah, let's do research. That's a good idea before we head to the game. Let's see. Let's research Halo 3. Here we go. Let's see. Because I don't know anything about it except for it makes Jesse cry when he plays it. Yeah, it's true. Not always. no no Halo in general makes me cry. Yeah, Halo 3 messed up. Halo 3 was a good one. Oh, shots fine. So obviously you said it's exactly like the video game to us once. You don't, you can you're not, you're going to give us a silent treatment now, aren't you? Cause the last time you said like, he said the guy likes a connection to old games with hidden doors. So I'm assuming what we're talking about here is Halo three. So it's basically a death match. We'll be on the same team. Hmm.
00:34:11
Speaker
screw it let's just go in we've got a cloud sword i've got a tactical nuke what's the worst thing i've got a super sheep let's go let's go got a spud gun like what more do we need yeah death by potato it really goes without leprechaun too it definitely does and okay can i just i just really want to do something weird because i know mine's got a sword i just think it would be really funny for him to have a chainsaw as well just so you don't have a chainsaw anymore no i just oh no that wasn't the other game wasn't the other game chainsaw
00:34:44
Speaker
Yeah, you can buy it. Yeah, I'm debating that. It'd be pretty brutal. But it'd be pretty fun. But he's got cloud sword, so he doesn't need it now that things. All right, what are we doing? What are we doing? Cool. Halo, let's go. ah we Are we all are you all a okay with that? Yep. Yeah. consensus. Okay, so you all head to Halo. now perfect team of four that's what you're supposed to do and know in a land party anyways now what you're gonna do or what you're gonna see as you go to it you see a door to halo three do you enter that door and how who what is the order
00:35:26
Speaker
Are there people, like, lots of people right here? Oh, there are e immense amount of people now. Like, you guys took so long. Are they blocking the entrance? No, no. no they it' like they They aren't blocking the entrance. They can't do anything to you in this part of the world. they game? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Loads have already entered the game. But they just can't win the key and yeah unlessly but when one now unless they've had the other two. And right now, your name is still the only one at the top. You guys, didn't I get some sort of hint that I forgot to open something? Yeah, you gotta, you gotta think. Did I get one for this one? I feel like it did. Jesse? It doesn't work on an audio medium. Did she get a scroll? Yes. A scroll or something like that? Guys, he's just giving us the silent treatment. It doesn't work on an audio medium, but he's being a bit of a douchebag right now. It's amazing. It's amazing.
00:36:18
Speaker
Does she have to roll for history? Yeah, I would, I would roll for history. Just do that. Just, just roll for history. Cause Jess is smiling way too much now. Go for it. Okay. That is 16. 16. You. recall when you last when you got the key it was an uber he walked you to the location and oh yeah and he said something like you can't do this without your friends but don't trust your friends but you can't do it without them but just don't trust them
00:36:54
Speaker
Yeah, basically. And you, you remember disregarding that and then you got your reward, which was 2000 gold invisibility for five minutes or something like that. And I believe that was it. Okay, so I didn't get any other types of clues, right? Has anyone else got any of the keys? Yeah, there's the a load of people, like probably not a load, probably over now over 25 people have gotten the, like the first key is now just becoming common. Like everyone's getting it. Okay. Because once enough people have seen it happen, it's just, now it's just happening.
00:37:35
Speaker
No one has gotten the second key yet, ah except for you. And that is all for the history check. Thank you. All So do you want to go out first? Do you want to go in? and i don' Is there like a particular thing like in Halo? If you go in first, you're like frontline of combat or something like that. Yeah, I'm assuming. Right. Okay. So quick question to our GM. So we, the physical items we bought only work in the games. They don't work outside of the games, right? He's not going to answer any questions. He's an absolute butt nugget.
00:38:07
Speaker
Okay, because this is what I want to do. Guys, I could I could break the game here if we can. um okay Let's jump into the portal. I'll take off the predator corner and tactical nuke everyone outside here waiting. So then literally, it'll only be us in there. You know, you're like killing real people, you know, just just want to make sure you I mean, there's still virtual people, they're virtual people, but also at the same time, we're about to play Halo. So we're going to murder a lot of people to be to Okay, I just want to make sure you know that. We're not going in there with pillows, we're going to be using battle rifles and plasma swords. They're not NPCs, like there might be NPCs in the Halo game. I'm just, yeah, you know, just see so that's the last ditch effort. But I'm game, you know me. Throw caution to the wind. I'll go in first screw it. I don't mind.
00:38:57
Speaker
All right. I'll go in next. and Okay. I'll go. I'll follow. Yeah. Okay. That's the order. So. Me and Luke try and go on at the same time.
00:39:09
Speaker
So I want, um, who has the fast, who's faster? Between Luke and me. Yeah. What do you have one dexterity? What do you, what do you feel? Oh, you have one dexterity. Do you have an, ah do you have a plus one to your dexterity Mike? Yeah, I do. Oh. but I feel like I have really short strides. So I'll give it to, I'll give it to. yeah think you say He's he's lose the dangerous over short distances to quote. gi
00:39:39
Speaker
We're dangerous. Do you want to roll for it? No, I'll give it to you. I was going to say, there's some Saving Private Ryan stuff about to happen, guys. You see Mike blow in half. So Mike, what? So you see, you are in a lobby, and you see Crash Bash 87, and then Crash Bash 87.1, Crash Bash 87.2, Crash Bash 87.3. And that is who you are now. You are the Crash Bash team. And Lee, you have control of the board. So what you see is... Yeah, I'm glad that you went in person because I don't know anything about Halo.
00:40:20
Speaker
you see now it's gonna be very easy for the audience and for the players uh you see the normal list campaign co-op uh extras help all those things then underneath that you see third key third key yeah third key challenge Can I go to the help bit? Yeah, you can go to the help bit, yeah. Sweet. Does that also, the help bit, also clarify what my selection process is, like what they are. it's a entailing so It it has like articles of different things. So you have a selection on the side. It's like the, uh, the regular campaign, it kind of gives you synopsis of that. And then it kind of gives like different Q and A's, but nothing about 30. Okay. Can the, can the other guys see it?
00:41:06
Speaker
Yeah, they can see everything you're doing. They can speak to you, but you are in control of the board. Sweet. And there's no like tutorial like thing. No. It's not really a real game without you to guys. What do you want to do? I mean, we're here for the third key. That's what I'm worried about. Well, I have a feeling it doesn't show up for anybody who doesn't have that second key, that button. So everybody else when probably went into the other one. And if we can click on it, it'll be our us. against the game yeah i think it'll be like the end of halo reach it'll be like an infinite wave mode is there any other npc's there any other groups and stuff like that you see nothing else oh yeah because we're the animals the video is your call you you know i'm gonna give you all the power in this episode uh let's just play the final the the key challenge okay
00:41:59
Speaker
sorry So you click on the third key? Yeah. So you click on the third key challenge and you are entered into a new room, into a new menu.

Settings and First Challenge in Halo 3

00:42:08
Speaker
And it's basically third key challenge at the top. And it has three different maps you can choose from. And it says at after that is another like tick custom builds like come in as you are or Halo builds. So we're playing a shooter, guys. We have a spud gun. I have fireballs. You have fireballs. That is true. You do have fireballs. I'm trying to remember. I don't even know what guns I have. I don't think I have any guns. I have a sharp hat. You have a sharp hat and clown sword.
00:42:46
Speaker
You are a melee build. And a a staff that turns into a snake. Sick. Luke, what are you thinking here? ah do I like ah audience. I am not the only one struggling throughout this episode. I think we can. Can we do like some of us? Do we all have that option? No, it is. He is in charge. He is walking. So there's not a way that some of us can go in as custom builds and some of us is Halo. I feel like if we go in as custom
00:43:23
Speaker
We're not going to have the shielding. and we're That's what I feel. We're not going to have the shielding. We're going to have all our normal weapons against them. And we have to kill them. And if we kill them, we then pick up their weapons, which is a bonus. But also the problem is we don't have shielding and all the other stuff that comes with it. And we've got multiple lives as well, right? Mike, actually, Mike, do you have multiple lives? I think so, yeah. OK, so if we fail, we can always come back in. So that's fine. So let's try it with the Halo build first. But then will we lose all our items if we die? I'm trying to remember what Jess did last time, because he was an absolute numpty, because he was like, yeah, you die till you lose all your items. So what do you guys want to do? It's your decision, because we just spent a shed ton of money and you want to use them, don't you? Yeah, I'm like, I kind of want to go. Me too. but you were is ah What is consensus in our group?
00:44:15
Speaker
I don't know the Halo stuff. I want to use my stuff, but, uh, let's do that. The consensus is that we've just bought a load of cool stuff. Let's use them. Okay. So you take that box and then you have three options. You have the pit, you have. Oh, shh. Maps. Last resort and desert sand, I believe. No, we're not playing desert sand. That's a way too open map. That's horrible, but it has got crawlers on it. What was the other two? Last resort. Last resort. I think it's desert sand is the last one. Yeah. Desert sounds like snipers. Huge map with sand crawlers. I remember that very vividly because you there's a desert map. That's all. I don't fully remember. But Lee is right. This is the map. It is. And you had Spartan lasers for days on that map too many times. Pitts close quarters. So Pitts probably going to be best for all of us because of how many close core weapons we have.
00:45:11
Speaker
it's calling up a war but it's literally just like yeah we just has to do perfect so we're playing halo three no i'm doing operation desert storm it's a real thing that happened in real life price okay gosh you know happens here happens in real life yeah exactly well to be honest we just found out that we have an apache helicopter and a charizard so i'm really excited about that to be honest i think So you pick one of those three? Think Pit, I think. Probably the better one. Because, Luke, what weapons do you have? A sword that controls itself, and that's pretty much it for weapons. Yeah, so we've all got close combat weapons, so the Pit's probably the best one, because it's all close combat. Well, fireballs, though, like, not work, then, if we're in that kind of... Oh, it'd be fine. Well, you've got fireballs. We've also got... It's all metal. It's made of metal, the whole place.
00:45:56
Speaker
We'll be fine. Concrete and metal, pretty much. I know you want to Hadouken people, so that's going to happen. Hadouken. Hadouken. What's the point of hi hey Halo? It's a big question. I feel manly. yeah Murder. No, so. You have to defeat your opponent. Yeah. Basically think any first person shoot you've ever played. But like, like you have to defeat a whole bunch, like a whole army, or is it like five other? It's either going to be a team or it's going to be an endless wave. Okay. and But that's only in Halo. march Or capture the flag. All that. Yeah. We'll go. Let's go. Let's have fun. Let's go. Pit. Pit's fun. We'll go with Pit. You guys can find me that because we've all got close quarters shenanigans. Yeah. You click Pit and then a button comes up that says start game. And on top of that, it has a 5L on it. 5L? 5L's level 5. I'm going to roll Insight. Yeah.
00:46:55
Speaker
Dad, and I don't know anything about Halo 3. Let's all do that then. Do we get advantage if we play this video game, but it's been like, you know, 10 years. I'm not helping. I'm not helping. I got an 18. 18? That's a good one. Then, Lee, is you get advantage, because if Jesse's not, okay. Oh yeah, because of our clan. Oh, we get and we get advantage from our clan. Okay. I said nothing. No, you didn't, but you just went at ah and we remembered 16 for me. Luke, what are you going to roll bro? You'll have advantage. hey Oh, five. And Mike, you got an 18. So, uh, Mike and Lee, you guys kind of figure out that it says five, it costs five lives total or total each total. So five lives from how many lives do I have?
00:47:47
Speaker
You only have your life, this life. Oh. Well, Mike can't play that. Unless we give him extra lives. No, no. I said total. Total. Total lives. That means the whole group, whoever's going in with the lead person. How many extra lives do we have, Devita? Because we bought a ton. I've split up. I gave you guys each 10 extra lives. Not Mike, but... Yeah. I have eight left because I only had nine to begin with. There were 19 lives that I bought. I i gave out 10 to you guys and I took nine myself. I'm very curious. Why 19 and not 20? Because I only had enough money for 19. Yeah. Okay.
00:48:36
Speaker
I'm sorry, not 1930, 29. 29. 29 lives. She has nine. we have That's what I meant to say. So effectively, we have what, one, two, three, four, five attempts at this before we can't physically do it. Yeah, but we'll lose all our stuff after the first time, if we all know. Yeah, but then we'll default to Halo then. Yeah, I guess. Oh, well. I also have, like I said, oh, actually, you know, I do have three potions. I'm definitely giving one of my health restores to Luke. No, I'll do that. It will be fine. I have I have eight of those anyway. So I and I highly doubt I'll use. No, no, not not regeneration hearts. Health potion. Health potion. I'm going to give. oh Oh, yeah. I'm going to give you one of my health potions. That box also might be a waste. I should have bought four, but I bought three. Sorry. You wanted Pokemon. Got a ketchup. My health health potion is good for 10. Yes, FYI.
00:49:35
Speaker
I don't know if I should take it, though. No, you're going to take it. I don't care. You're going to take it. She drops it in front of you and just leaves it. I drop it. It's in front of you. I'm not picking it up. If fate doesn't pick it up, I'll gladly pick it up. final. I'll take it and just put everything into the bag holding so much space now. I have 20 health. Nice. Nice. and Then I'm getting my other one to Lee and I'm going to keep one. ah Great. So Lee, I'm dropping one for you. You get a health, you get a health potion. I go on my em email wheel and do the hilarious Zelda.
00:50:10
Speaker
da da da nice great What is, what is your total health though? Uh, 10 now. Okay. And mine is 12. D6 sounds dead. Yeah. What do you click start? We're not going to say anything cool before anyone's going to say anything. A group emote. I don't know. Some sort of group emote. YMCA. ballerina dancers i don't know yeah oh i thought for a second there mike also got what i was doing the elbow oh the elbow yeah you should do that and then i'll click okay and hilariously go finish the fight
00:50:54
Speaker
And immediately you feel a drainagely of like it feels like you died five times. Now you you enter into like it looks like you enter into like a loading screen. And in that loading screen, it shows like kind of like a helpful hint. And it's like, find the Easter eggs, get the key. OK. live long enough to tell the tale, and then another one slides off and it's like enemies to look out for. Covenant. Flood. Any opposing enemy. And I think that's about it. Yeah, those three things.
00:51:36
Speaker
now you look at this loading screen and then it kind of zooms out and you still see the loading screen against this wall and that wall then brightens up you see you're in this square in the pit. It could be a square fully. I didn't take too much note on this part of the map. Everything else is pretty detailed. But against the wall to your to the left of this screen is the loading screen still. And yeah, that is this is where you're at right now. This is where you start. What do you want to do? I'm going to equip my dragon radar. Okay. Immediately scan for where the Easter eggs are on the map.
00:52:21
Speaker
Okay. Perfect. So you see them pretty much scattered everywhere. I can direct you as you go, but you see one actually at your feet. Okay. ah su but see you thatku all theku The skull. you The is the first Easter egg. Yes. Yeah. Okay. Sure. Who wants to pick it up? I'll pick it up. Go for it Mike. boom I pick up the skull. Okay you, Mike, as you try to pick it up it says minimum to two players. It won't even let you touch it without another person with you. i I'll do it as well since I'm the other one there. Okay I want you
00:53:01
Speaker
both to roll me a strength save, a wisdom save, an intelligence save. At what level are we again? I believe you're level four, Luke, maybe three. Oh, no, you're level three because you died during this game. Yeah. But Mike, you're level four for sure. Yeah, I got 18 for strength. OK, 18 for strength. And he said wisdom, wisdom and intelligence and intelligence. Two for strength. Two for strength. Wisdom was a seven. Okay. 18. 18. And a four for intelligence. Also four.
00:53:42
Speaker
Okay, so you feel these like different waves come at you as you're both holding on to this skull and then you both end up somewhere else. You end up together or... Yeah, together. You are both on a platform and you start seeing cannons come out with ah what you can only tell are tennis balls. And I want you to roll initiative. Now, while they're doing this, what are you to be the Emily doing? I don't know what just happened. You both, you see that Luke and Mike try and go for this Easter egg, this skull. And you see them like raising it, raising it, raising it, and then slamming down and sucking them both into it. So they just died? No, no. I mean, you could think that. That's where my brain goes. I'm like, oh.
00:54:36
Speaker
and so What happened? They did? They grabbed a skull and they got smashed okay and Lee, you do see, just FYI, there is another skull right nearby where you you have to go down and then to the left. And then it's pretty much there. So Davita then, so my theory is they both picked up the skull that got transported into the skull or somewhere else to do something. So we can, if we go to the- Like a minigame? got to assume that that's what I'm going to assume. So we can go to the other skull. Let's do that. Because there's got to be there's like four. Do I know with looking at my Dragon Raider, how many how many Easter eggs are there for? There are 12. 12? Yeah, maybe 13. I'm not 100% sure on that. But I think 12. And you wanted to get this episode done tonight. Wow. Cool. ah Let's go to the other one then to be if you want to come with me, or do you want to jump in where Luke might have jumped gone into?
00:55:36
Speaker
Is it? It's not possible. It's gone now, right? No, the school is still there. They are in the school. Oh, yeah. So it's like a teleport thing. um Let's go to the other school then. Okay. Those guys have got it. Let's go. We'll do that. So you head, so you head down this way with the Vita. So for you going back to you guys, what did you roll for initiative? Five for me. Five for you. A 12. 12. Okay. So actually, you know okay. Immediately. I need both of you to roll deck saves.
00:56:11
Speaker
Me? What? No, no, no, not you. Mike and and na twenty Nat Nat 20? Nice! You're flowing. You're using that snake cane and... but You're flowing with a snake cane. I love it. You even, you know, like you you call out Jafar and Jafar like, what, what, what? And you like roll over him and you're like... You're dodging these tennis balls like mad. What'd you roll, Luke? 17. 17? Again. You're not as possessed, but you are dodging these tennis balls. Now, its your turn, Luke. I'll just start by, like, seeing if I have some kind of insight or perception to see what if we're just supposed to survive.

Overcoming Challenges and Regrouping

00:56:58
Speaker
With a 2? With a 2? You think...
00:57:04
Speaker
Might as well get hit. Maybe it ends the game quicker. Maybe that's the solution. Maybe dying might be the end of this episode. So, Mike, it's your turn. I'm gonna roll perception. Okay. Six. You are distracted by Luke looking so ponderous.
00:57:29
Speaker
And I'm gonna... Okay, I'm gonna need another dex save from both of you. Well. Well, okay. Two. Luke, you get hit.
00:57:45
Speaker
You get hit by 10 tennis balls, which just give you one damage each. And you, I believe that's your hit points, right? You said, oh, you're at 12. How much hit points do you have? It would be five. Oh, you only oh that's right. youll So I definitely kill you. Yes. Okay. Can you take his health portion in the middle of getting hit with his head as well? So, yeah, you, Mike, you see Luke get hit constantly. Then you see his avatar like shimmer and then just disintegrate. And then it says winner. Oh, nice. Sorry, Luke. And then, Mike, you come back and you have the skull in your hand. And everybody left.
00:58:33
Speaker
<unk> Now, you guys are at another skull. What do you do? How's this halo? Does halo have tennis balls? Grenades, more likely. but They look like tennis balls. They do. um All right, and so we so we witnessed the guys both pick this skull up and we had to do a strength check. That reminds me. Thanks for reminding me to be there. Sorry. do but We can make the joke. If he dies, he dies. also you you three see uh you see easter egg activated grunt celebration okay so what does that mean um sure not a clue because grunts are normally what you have to kill so and it said the grunt was activated the grunt is celebrating so something happens so right um let's pick this skull up and see what we have to do okay
00:59:23
Speaker
Okay. So Lee, you go up to the skull and it says minimum two players. Okay. Yeah, to be it looks like it says two. Okay. ski for So I need a strength save, intelligence save, and a wisdom save. Oh my God. All right. Strength say 16 on strength. 16 on Strength. Nat 20 on Intelligence Save. What was the last one? Wisdom. I'm not that smart. Well, so you can go with Advantage because you're you got the Intelligence Save with Nat 20. 15. 15, okay.
00:59:59
Speaker
17 for strength 15 was the intelligence was the next one yeah i think i have x no i don't oh sorry strength was 18 i have a plus one on strength 18 for strength 15 for for intelligence so what was the last one wisdom okay that is a 10 for wisdom Okay. You both hold on to this skull and you together overcome the thrall, the curse, the whatever it's called. And you both are holding the skull. It's all done. And it says, Easter egg activate hardcore.
01:00:38
Speaker
and it says It has like a list. It's like all enemies have ah double armor, their weapons are ah more accurate, and they they dodge grenades better. and yeah So, Luke, you are creating a new character. so and So you're welcome to just jump back into this game whenever you're ready. Or use one of your extra lives right now. Yeah. i ah Do I just enter the? Yeah, you just just enter right into this game. Yeah. After a character creation and you just walk into here. Yeah. All right. I'm going to walk down, I think. OK. You're going to kind of like look look around the corner because I don't know where they are. Which corner? Towards them, but not towards them. I mean, I'm looking I was going to the like the doorway and I was like looking at like both ways. Oh, OK. OK.
01:01:34
Speaker
That makes sense. yeah yeah Checking my corners. You can't exactly see them from that area. Okay. Can't wait to look at my radar. I think I'll wait here for a second. But yeah, I'll wait here. Okay. So who wants to go next? What do you guys do? I look at my radar to see if it's picked up our teammates as well as the um Easter eggs. Yeah. I mean, you can definitely see your your teammates nearby. Yeah. Yeah, we'll, we'll head back to Mike. Let's regroup. Does your radar detect covenants or floods? It will, Mike, this radar should be able to to to connect, uh, detect, uh, what we're looking for, enemies and friends. It's a giant radar. That's why I went for it. That's amazing. It is. I wanted to go with the alien tracker, but that thing's so not precise. Okay. Yeah. So we'll go with a dragon radar. It's way more cooler. So cool.
01:02:26
Speaker
Yeah, we'll make our way back to to Mike then. Yeah. Cool. So you make your way back and Mike is at the entrance to the bottom and yeah. Right. So if we, if we even meet up, then we'll also see Luke's character then as well, right? It's up to him. is Is he back in and ready? Yeah, I'll jump in. i I don't know if I have to. Do I have to give up my five lives? Nope. Okay. Then I'll just enter. Okay. So you enter and you're back. You see them all mostly just trying to find the mic again to be like, we did it. I guess we won ah collectively. Thanks for taking that in. ah Oh yeah. it was It was how you, you beat the game.
01:03:04
Speaker
Yeah. It's just, ah it's becoming a common thing now. ah don I don't want to make a joke, but I don't want to because I feel really bad. Okay. So do you join them? Yeah. You join them, Lou. Cool. Yeah. Okay. So you guys are all down there. You, Lee, you see one. So like you're on a platform right now. You, on your radar, you see a wall, like you see a platform in front, like across from you. So you have to like either jump it or come like go around. And then there is you see a skull behind that. So it's kind of like ah below that platform. There's a skull. You see one like diagonal from where you are on both directions in reality. um But one you stay on the same platform. yeah The other one you have to get down and you have to go up some other things.
01:03:52
Speaker
You see another one to your right on the screen, and that one is again below that area. So you have to go down to find it. And those are pretty much the nearest ones. I mean, if you want to go further, I can go further. No, let's try and keep stuff like let's get the ones closest to us and stay sticking together. I'll say with that radar, you do also see on the below platform, like within 40 feet. Let me see, actually measured from you guys, 15 feet. So it's pretty close to you. And you see that there are covenant there grunts and one elite.
01:04:34
Speaker
As we're walking over there, whatever I want, I roll. Oh, so you are walking to someone oh you own you oh no so before we do anything. I wanted to roll to see if I knew why we didn't have to do a challenge for that school. Oh, sure. So we passed those tests, I guess. but Yeah. Why did we, why did we pass it? And I wrote a plus with my bonus is 23. 23. Do you understand that these are tests that you need to pass and with those days you passed them. Okay. But then from hearing from Mike and Luke, they didn't pass it. That's why they were in this.
01:05:12
Speaker
thing. Like if they had rolled higher, they wouldn't have had to be in this tennis ball thing after all. Okay. Are the covenant seen us? No, cause you're on a higher level. Okay. So we've got the covenant below us. Um, there's one above them. Do two of you want to go over there and cause we'll get surprise or technically advantage on them or surprise attack. Do I use my super sheet? I'm trying to think cause we're above there below and then next to the next one we're going to go to after this anyway. No, they are past like it's past that. So what you see, you see you're on a platform and on this platform, you can go around to the next one, but it's still behind a wall. But you can go around them. Let's go around them, guys. We'll try and not have as much conflict as possible. mo I thought the sorry is they've leveled up every time we've gotten a. Oh, yeah, that's true. So if we fight them now,
01:06:11
Speaker
They'll be weaker. We will have to fight them eventually. And if we fight them later, they're going to be stronger. That's true. Can I do perception real quick and look around for some guns on the floor? Oh, sugar. We need to do that. Yeah, that's a smart thing. I mean, do that. Are you doing that? I didn't help you. I think we should because I completely forgot we're playing Halo. There's weapons always lying on grass. We need weapons. Oh, we have advantage, right? Yes. ah Good. Does fire help to defeat these guys too? Yeah. I'm assuming. 14. I know you want to Hadorken. You can definitely Hadorken them. Yeah, you see the assault rifle ah basically right in front of you guys. You also see a Needle-o behind you. Sounds like an enemy, not a weapon.
01:06:58
Speaker
Needle-o. Yeah.

Battle Strategies and Equipment Choices

01:06:59
Speaker
I was going to say, that isn't that a Pokémon? Gotta catch a ball. Weedle. Or a Needle Queen, Needle King. No, yeah. yeah yeah How many did we, did you, did we, did we figure out how much of these enemies there are or? He said a few grunts and an elite. He didn't tell us the number. My dragon radar would show me though, how many bodies there are though, Jess, just to give you a heads up. There are four of us. four bodyd So there's one elite, which is scary guy. Think, think, um, strong guy. Um, that's what I have to say. And then the, the other four, uh, the other three are idiots. Uh, so I think, here we go. Goblin, uh, three goblins and then.
01:07:39
Speaker
Okay. Yeah, I would say that. Yeah. Okay. There we go. There we go. So, we'll keep with the Lord of the Rings theme. Let's keep going, guys. i know't one of the rings I know that amazingly. So, get we'll go with that. We'll go with that. Just don't know Halo. Alright, I'll go for the Needler. Okay. like of the know Has anyone got any other the range? Davia said she's got fireballs. Luke, have you got any range? No, I do not. Did you come in with new weapons when you re- Yeah, I have a new sword. ah Plus good, I believe. You also don't have a bag of holding anymore. Oh, that sucks.
01:08:23
Speaker
I'm trying to think, I can't even remember. Do I have any weapons other than the ones that I bought recently? what I'm looking. Wait, the the health potion that was in the bag of problems that also gone. Flump. Cool. Cool story, bro. Always. when this happens to lu What is your new avatar? Lowkey. But accurate, accurate lowkey. Not President Loki or Accurate Loki. Not Marvel Loki. Or Loki. Are you being Loki? Just you but being Loki. Loki better because I can be accurate. you know but Red hair.
01:08:59
Speaker
um i was I was originally going to add some fire stuff because it has been theorized that he was a Norse God of Fire, which would have been helpful if... if What's your other thing you got? You got a sword and what else did you get? I got a what I call a Frost Giant sword. but It's a normal sized sword, yeah but it's just called Frost Giant sword. and I don't... Jesse didn't look this over as far as I know. No, no. no but Or if I did, it was a long time ago. and it goes And I don't know if it has been approved, but I also have a shape changing familiar, but limited to only the forms that Loki has taken in myth. I think they did listen to this one. I think, I think I didn't see it. I don't think there's a problem with it. Yeah. Then comes in with a Pikachu and says, this is a shape shifting Pikachu.
01:09:52
Speaker
ah Look at this crazy thing. Now Lee, now you need a Pokémon. I don't need a Pokémon. I am a Pokémon. I'm toast. I am a Pokémon. People mistake me all the time. We got two short guys. The worst thing

Action Scene and Episode Finale

01:10:11
Speaker
is we're going to... Two tall and graceful mythological
01:10:16
Speaker
And two so small guys when you summon Pokemon, they're going to be bigger than us probably as well, which is even funnier. I'm sure our little clan looks hilarious. We've got the Asgardian and elf. Yeah, I was thinking that back when he said like everyone choreographed that it would be thriller and everyone choreographed that it would be fruit. And it's just us. Yeah. hot I love it. I'm towed in like a meth cooking suit from Breaking Bad. Like, what more do you need? Like, honestly, come on. Oh, okay. So. Yeah. While we were talking. Yes.

01:11:50
Speaker
How do they get in here? They can only get in here if they're the third key people. The third key people. And now I'm going to hand it over to Davida. No. I mean, but I'm OK. I'm chill. Everything's fine. I don't think we're gonna survive this guys. We've got Charizard. that fars up Now I feel like none of my equipment is helpful even though I have a so much.
