• 4:36
  That live is insane. You have been obsessed since
• 4:40
  like what? Three days.
• 4:41
  Two days. Three days.
• 4:42
  Three days. Yeah, I've been watching knots.
• 4:44
  I watch it at work with Logan. I know I checked, I would check
• 4:47
  this court on my phone and I would see you in there like the
• 4:49
  entire day more than Nick is ever in a Discord while he's at
• 4:52
  work, and he's just sitting there and I know he's laughing
• 4:55
  his ass off of some stupid stuff that's going on about it.
• 4:58
  Why don't you tell everybody what fish tank is?
• 5:00
  If they're not familiar, I'll describe it the First, I'm able
• 5:03
  to it's so it's it was created by Sam hide in his friends from
• 5:07
  what I understand. And Sam height is very is a very
• 5:13
  controversial figure in the YouTube and Adult Swim seen and
• 5:17
  all of that like he's, he's a shock guy, man.
• 5:20
  Like he's really. He just like a shock jock.
• 5:22
  Yeah. He's a very just wants to be
• 5:24
  shocking and sometimes it's very funny and sometimes it's not we
• 5:29
  won't get into really Sam hide. But this is a project of is
• 5:32
  where I think is Actually. Really cool.
• 5:36
  It's been done it. You've had the real world,
• 5:39
  you've had big brother but this is on an internet 24-hour a day.
• 5:43
  Life cycle, always streaming. Always recording.
• 5:47
  Its eight people in a house. No phones.
• 5:50
  Can't go outside. There's rules, there's fucking
• 5:54
  like, like, contest things. They have to do, challenges,
• 5:59
  vote offs. Shit like that, right?
• 6:02
  And it's for six weeks, I thought it was maybe like 10
• 6:05
  days for six weeks. These people are stuck in that
• 6:10
  fucking house, right? So, the house is always online
• 6:14
  and you could fuck with them. You could like, turn the heat up
• 6:17
  as high as it can go. You can turn it down as low as I
• 6:19
  can go. You could fucking swap the shit
• 6:21
  in the fridge into the freezer in the freezer into the fridge.
• 6:24
  You can steal someone's bed for the night, dude.
• 6:27
  Like It's insane and like I thought like I tuned into it,
• 6:34
  not expecting much. And then I just cracked the fuck
• 6:37
  up. I've been cracking up for three
• 6:39
  days with Logan and now Ethan's watching it and now I know I'll
• 6:42
  suck her Evan and watching it. He's he's been grabbing me
• 6:46
  today, folks. I'm sorry, like he's been
• 6:49
  actually kind of convincing me that it's, I mean, I'm typically
• 6:52
  not a fan of stuff like that though, right?
• 6:54
  I don't care for the real. I'm not even real.
• 6:58
  This were no, I am not eating a fiance, I'm out, that's right
• 7:01
  guilty. Pleasure, that's a guilty
• 7:03
  pleasure, whatever. Whatever this.
• 7:06
  But this is legitimate though. Like these people, you don't
• 7:10
  like, these people are in a fucking house, and we control
• 7:14
  what happens? Yeah, and I've seen and I've
• 7:16
  seen I have not seen anybody do it personally yet, but I know
• 7:19
  that like you've explained to me, that that's what they can
• 7:21
  do. Like and the heat thing is
• 7:23
  definitely something that we referenced on Twitter earlier
• 7:25
  today. So that's so fun.
• 7:28
  Any that he loves so glad I made it so funny.
• 7:32
  I'm so glad I found ya. I'm typically not a fan of stuff
• 7:36
  like that, but I'm not going to I like I've watched that more
• 7:39
  than I've watched probably any other reality show other than
• 7:41
  like walking through the living room.
• 7:43
  My mom was watching you know 90-day fiance or some crap like
• 7:46
  that. I feel bad for my father because
• 7:47
  he has to watch it too. But like I've never been a fan
• 7:51
  of that stuff. Right?
• 7:52
  And yet I am kind of watching it because I think it's just it's
• 7:56
  got an internet feel to it. Does that make sense?
• 7:58
  And it feels like something that was made for people like us.
• 8:00
  It's yes, where a lot of the like, like 90 day fiancé.
• 8:04
  And like the other reality shows, the older crowd.
• 8:06
  They're like I don't 41 but like but like therefore TV
• 8:10
  generation. They're like yeah for my like my
• 8:12
  mom loves that stuff. She probably doesn't really like
• 8:14
  fish tank. Like she probably know she would
• 8:16
  hate this. No, and I mean that's also
• 8:19
  probably partially due to the chat.
• 8:22
  So like if you're going to check it out, be aware.
• 8:27
  It's not. Oh man, the chat is revived
• 8:32
  cornered. It's rough.
• 8:34
  It is rough but it has these nuggets of just hilarity, it's
• 8:39
  just gold. Yeah.
• 8:40
  The text-to-speech function that they're doing to these people
• 8:44
  is, it's not always good. There was a point yesterday
• 8:48
  where the producer had to come up and go.
• 8:49
  I know that sense we turn Texas speech on you guys have been
• 8:53
  hearing racial slurs, this isn't that and it's been terrible.
• 8:57
  We are trying our best to filter it.
• 8:59
  Yeah. Yeah, but that is also a good
• 9:02
  thing that they can't. The Producers came up and said
• 9:04
  we're doing our best to fucking ban these people so choose their
• 9:09
  issues. They're like they're legit in on
• 9:11
  it, right? It's not just a quick cool
• 9:12
  thing. It's like, hey, we're very sorry
• 9:14
  that this is what you're hearing.
• 9:16
  Well, yes, the intent is to spice things up and make this
• 9:19
  more interesting. Not to just insult one of you
• 9:22
  because somebody is, you know, POS online.
• 9:26
  Exactly. And I like that because you told
• 9:27
  me today, Nick asked me to Because I have no idea what it
• 9:31
  is still really other than like that.
• 9:33
  Like, I understand the basics and Nick just goes, Evan, would
• 9:35
  you do this? And I'm like, yeah.
• 9:38
  And then, as you keep describing it, I'm like, I think I wouldn't
• 9:41
  do this because I don't think I could do it.
• 9:43
  You said no phone and like that immediately to me was like,
• 9:46
  okay, I can't even watch TV. That kind of bums me out.
• 9:49
  There's like a VHS player in this house somewhere.
• 9:51
  What the fuck, can I bring books?
• 9:53
  Yeah, some couple of people have books, they have puzzles, they
• 9:56
  have okay, vibrating guitar, you know.
• 10:00
  No, I'm not bringing a guitar with those animals in the chat.
• 10:03
  Are you kidding me, dude? They've like something.
• 10:04
  Qatar up your ass do it now even the worst types of things?
• 10:08
  Now, absolutely not known after like week three.
• 10:10
  They'd be like shut the guitar up your asshole said you a snack
• 10:12
  bag. The big.
• 10:13
  Okay. Yeah, I'm starving in there.
• 10:15
  Yeah. But if I can bring like books
• 10:18
  and stuff, I think I could do it because I always want to find
• 10:20
  more time to read and this would probably be a perfect time to do
• 10:23
  it. Yeah, but while you're waiting,
• 10:25
  you're getting text to speech because you can text to speech
• 10:28
  per room, it's not just through it so you could Target
• 10:32
  individuals. It's not because everybody would
• 10:36
  see. I know that chat would see me
• 10:38
  reading and they'd go, you know what, he's not causing any
• 10:40
  problems to anybody. We should probably ruin his life
• 10:43
  and that's exactly what they do. It is.
• 10:47
  Okay, it is not nice. No, they're fine, really, really
• 10:52
  and they are targeting certain people.
• 10:54
  We're not I'm not going to get into it here.
• 10:57
  It's bad I couldn't help. Put chuckle you don't mean like
• 11:06
  like that was mean laughs. And I'm like come on man.
• 11:11
  Like this is like chubby guy on the show and being Logan or
• 11:15
  watching it and he woke up in the chat went watch out here
• 11:18
  comes Fatso and I was like it was like I was like man be nice
• 11:23
  to this guy but I laugh because it's just like it's so mean and
• 11:27
  absurdist but that's a part of the experiment to I Think more
• 11:32
  than anything. These people are the experiment,
• 11:34
  but we're also the experiment right to see how fucking shitty.
• 11:37
  We are. People reacting.
• 11:39
  Yeah. They're like 08, people are
• 11:41
  locked in a house and they don't have any phones and we can do
• 11:43
  anything. We want the entire house.
• 11:44
  That's fucking ruin their lives and that's what I love.
• 11:47
  You told me that earlier. You're like the producers are
• 11:50
  really struggling and I'm like, what's up?
• 11:52
  And they're like well they're not using the fish toys yet,
• 11:54
  which are like the ways you can like change things and you're
• 11:57
  like they're not using them yet. I'm like.
• 11:58
  Oh why not? It's like how long is it?
• 12:00
  He's like well it's six weeks of Three days in.
• 12:02
  I'm like, oh no shit. And they're like, yeah.
• 12:04
  And it's like oh no shit. They haven't kept off because
• 12:06
  these people are trying to like kill them.
• 12:08
  Dude. They're trying to exactly speech
• 12:09
  for 12 hours straight. Yeah.
• 12:12
  It's $100 per message. By the way, Jesus, I don't know.
• 12:17
  And I don't want to hear anyone ever bitch about people who pay
• 12:19
  for ships and I don't want to add If You're Gonna Want hundred
• 12:21
  dollars to say fuck you big man to some guy in a room somewhere.
• 12:26
  Filthy you fucking dick man. Yeah you got other issues dude.
• 12:31
  It's cool though. It's a cool little thing.
• 12:33
  I'm enjoying right now with like everybody who will watch it.
• 12:36
  I don't Jules was really dying. Alex is cracking up against
• 12:40
  thing I'll say is and I'll say that I'm very like had to bring
• 12:42
  it up because it's definitely like.
• 12:44
  All right now it's definitely one of the hottest things on the
• 12:46
  internet for sure. I say yeah.
• 12:50
  Hilarious. Also, damnation me and Logan are
• 12:54
  part of the damnation, bro. So I don't know what that means.
• 12:57

  the damnation, dude. I'm a damn mahalik.
• 13:18
  Yeah. Damn, mahalik.
• 13:20
  All right. On top of being an alcoholic.
• 13:23
  All right. So this week stranger like this
• 13:27
  stranger. It wasn't really a transition
• 13:30
  but it wasn't a transition. We're going right into res evil,
• 13:32
  for remake. Wow.
• 13:34
  So on top of fish tank. Taking over my life.
• 13:36
  This is a game that I really took my time with.
• 13:41
  I was me and Evan, have been excited for each and every
• 13:44
  Resident Evil title. Either new or remake?
• 13:49
  Yeah, coming out because they've been so phenomenal.
• 13:51
  The engine they're using is so beautiful and just re inches.
• 13:57
  Can we like if we had to do like a top ten list for engines?
• 14:00
  I think I would probably put the re engine at least in like the
• 14:03
  top six. It would have to be, it has
• 14:05
  been. So it's just it's so pretty and
• 14:07
  it does everything you like in terms of a game format, like
• 14:11
  we've had risen Evil 7 and 8 and the 2 3 and 4 remakes on that
• 14:16
  engine and all of them play so well, they're so well optimized
• 14:21
  like every crashes, but that's it.
• 14:24
  It was a weird bug. It was a weird bug.
• 14:26
  I didn't even if you. Well, it's if you had, it was a
• 14:30
  bug that some people are encountering if you had Ray
• 14:32
  tracing and And hair at Max really.
• 14:37
  Okay. Well yeah then I never would
• 14:38
  have experienced it. I never had it up that high.
• 14:40
  So I had them all up that high to start the game and it was
• 14:43
  running at a solid 120. Yeah, it's tired of it.
• 14:48
  They've got those crashes runs so.
• 14:51
  Well, this game on this engine is amazing.
• 14:54
  I remember playing this on the GameCube at Ed's house.
• 14:59
  Same and I just would play the fuck out of this.
• 15:03
  Do Dude, and yo-yo. How old were you?
• 15:06
  When you played that game. Oh shit.
• 15:09
  Let me tell you. Well what does our with it
• 15:12
  already come out? So you know, I can't do more,
• 15:15
  you know? I, you know, I don't know how to
• 15:16
  do math. You came out 2004 2005.
• 15:20
  I was born in 91. Okay.
• 15:23
  So you were what? 15 16 15. 16 years old.
• 15:27
  Yeah yeah okay I was five dude. I want to like I just want to
• 15:32
  make you feel old for a minute. Yeah, I don't like it, I don't
• 15:35
  like it but like dude at six fifteen, sixteen years old,
• 15:38
  playing this game on a GameCube cuz GameCube for me at that
• 15:43
  point, my time in my life, I was Xbox PC or Playstation.
• 15:46
  So GameCube was for babies. Nintendo was babies.
• 15:50
  Right, like it's weird to think like that but like that's
• 15:53
  console wars were raging with when I was that old though, like
• 15:56
  right, the tender was for the babies and you if you were you
• 15:59
  were an elite player on PC or you were a console, schlub
• 16:03
  playing Xbox or Playstation. And if you didn't have one of
• 16:05
  the other or if you had one of the other you were a piece of
• 16:07
  shit to each side. That's just how it was.
• 16:10
  I mean, still kind of like that but it's not as bad, it's not as
• 16:12
  bad. I mean, yeah, my experience was
• 16:14
  I think I played, I think I played like an early PlayStation
• 16:16
  because I remember playing Ratchet and Clank PS3. /?
• 16:20
  No really was PS2 yes to. Oh yeah, no.
• 16:24
  I like I started playing games and I was young, I think I had
• 16:27
  the first time I played a game. I think my dad told me, I was
• 16:29
  like to say it is PS2. Holy shit.
• 16:32
  Yeah, right. Is it was like Ratchet and
• 16:33
  Clank. It was, it was story based
• 16:35
  stuff, you know, like ash Bandicoot and then I moved up
• 16:38
  from that to, you know, the the Xbox games.
• 16:42
  And I don't remember if I played more PlayStation games I did, I
• 16:45
  don't even remember how we got a GameCube.
• 16:47
  I just remember, playing Resident Evil.
• 16:50
  Some racing game on it and like yeah.
• 16:53
  I remembered re4 because of the chainsaw guy and like that
• 16:56
  little village sequence, that's what I remember the most of and
• 16:59
  it was open world to me at the time, right?
• 17:01
  You know my greatest understanding of it was I got to
• 17:04
  walk more than like just around a little path, a beaten path, I
• 17:07
  was designed for you to write to move through.
• 17:10
  So yes it was really it was one of those moments for me of like
• 17:14
  I'm so glad they're remaking this I remember playing.
• 17:18
  Through the beginning section of the village in surviving the
• 17:21
  chainsaw guy. I remember the boulder, I
• 17:23
  remember tapping that a button for what felt like five minutes
• 17:28
  just outrun the stupid Boulder. The Indiana Jones wouldn't even
• 17:31
  put up with, and I remember fighting the lake monster and
• 17:35
  the Giants, the ogres. I remember fighting all those
• 17:38
  guys and I only remembered the basic combat.
• 17:42
  I never remembered the story. I understood the basis of I
• 17:45
  played a guy named Leon and he had saved president's daughter.
• 17:48
  But I didn't know anything other than that.
• 17:49
  So, like to come back to that with, with this remake huge,
• 17:54
  Nostalgia trip. Well, it's also you get to come
• 17:57
  back to with an open mind and a fresh mind because it's been so
• 18:00
  long as you touch the title. Right.
• 18:02
  I only ever got to the lake monster when I was that that
• 18:05
  old. Yeah, ever got there.
• 18:08
  That's the case far as I yeah, for my skill level, I would, I
• 18:11
  mean, for me, I was playing games.
• 18:13
  I always playing the original resin even when I was younger,
• 18:16
  but I stopped because there was fucking Halo There was half
• 18:19
  life, there was doom, and those were the games.
• 18:21
  I really gravitated to the FPS and Arena Shooters unreal,
• 18:27
  Quake? That was me, man, as like a
• 18:29
  fucking early teenager. Okay, that's all I wanted to
• 18:32
  touch. So, again, like this, if it
• 18:34
  wasn't those games, or if it wasn't the legacy of Kain Ames,
• 18:38
  I didn't want to touch it, so to shelf it and then come back at
• 18:42
  31 and we go, oh shit, I could play it again.
• 18:46
  Yeah. But this time it's Presented.
• 18:49
  Its, it's presented in a way that my eyes will visually go.
• 18:54
  Holy fuck. I've never seen it like this.
• 18:56
  Let's do it. And there's differences in the
• 18:58
  game and its quality of life is there.
• 19:03
  Yes, it is. So it's the same game, but it's
• 19:07
  not. And that's what I do.
• 19:09
  Appreciate about what they are, Capcom is doing.
• 19:12
  It's not just a fucking flash in the pan.
• 19:14
  Let's quickly make these games remake them.
• 19:17
  It's Let's help people who couldn't, who weren't around or
• 19:22
  weren't old enough, or don't remember playing these titles,
• 19:25
  revisit these titles or visit them for the first time in a way
• 19:29
  that they will not be disappointed.
• 19:31
  And I think that that's relatively new in terms of
• 19:35
  gaming, the gaming industry, right?
• 19:38
  I mean we've had, we've had remakes and remasters goals.
• 19:42
  Yeah, we've had things like that.
• 19:43
  But like recently, we've had not only the re re We've had a dead
• 19:48
  space remake and I love, I mean, I never played dead space but I
• 19:52
  played the Remake and I was like holy shit.
• 19:54
  The no wonder people love this back in the day but I get to see
• 19:56
  it with because that's the that's what people run into.
• 20:00
  They run into, you know, the Master Chief Collection.
• 20:02
  I mean I remember Halo like for Halo 2.
• 20:04
  I know they read it all the cutscenes I made that look,
• 20:07
  fantastic. So like, you know, you have
• 20:10
  those little bits that people have been going through of like,
• 20:12
  okay, we've already made great games and if we remake them for
• 20:16
  a newer generation, Just like they do with movies and TV.
• 20:19
  Like they're remaking Peter Pan and the Little Mermaid and they
• 20:23
  have, they're remaking other Disney proud better for worse
• 20:26
  for better for worse. Sure.
• 20:27
  But to but, you know, again it's for younger kids.
• 20:31
  Kids, who have never seen these stories before, so, like, yeah,
• 20:34
  I saw the little mermaid when I was like four, am I gonna go see
• 20:37
  this one? Probably not, but there's going
• 20:39
  to be a four year old who does go see it and they're going to
• 20:41
  look to be a 30 year old. Who's going to remember it too
• 20:43
  though, right? And I'm going to have a
• 20:44
  Nostalgia trip. The same.
• 20:45
  The same way just like we do with with games like this.
• 20:47
  Yeah, yes. And I would agree.
• 20:49
  You're absolutely right. When you say they're not a flash
• 20:51
  in a flash in the pan like they are, they take time, I mean,
• 20:54
  what 3 came out four years ago? So the oh yeah.
• 20:58
  Granted. We've had a bit of a, you know,
• 20:59
  pandemic and that time. But, you know, still that, that
• 21:04
  I still think it would have taken, like, they would have
• 21:06
  waited, like, 23 years to work on it anyway.
• 21:08
  I don't think they would have it would have taken time regardless
• 21:11
  and I'm glad it took time. Yeah.
• 21:13
  Because, you know, it would have really bummed both of us out if
• 21:16
  we had to, hey, Remaking our you for, I love that game from when
• 21:20
  I was a kid and then you get it and it's like, oh well, they
• 21:22
  just made the they say 4K textures, but it's the same game
• 21:25
  from when I played it on a GameCube.
• 21:27
  She saw shit tank controls, you know?
• 21:29
  I mean, but that's not the case here.
• 21:31
  Well, for didn't have tank controls.
• 21:32
  It was all. We got tank controls but it was
• 21:34
  still very clunky. Move it back.
• 21:36
  It was the first like, third person game of that kind of.
• 21:39
  Yeah, so absolutely. It wasn't going to be like, how
• 21:41
  we have it now where are not already.
• 21:44
  Sorry. Well, Ari is RE 2, 3 & 4, you
• 21:47
  have. Like and all newer games that
• 21:49
  are third person, right, Red Dead GTA 5.
• 21:51
  Yea, you know, all that kind of stuff The Last of Us.
• 21:55
  Sorry, I had to throw that in for all of the viewers that know
• 21:57
  how much I can't reference Half-Life here, but we gotta
• 22:00
  Last of Us reference will get. I will get a third person
• 22:03
  Half-Life mod. I'm sure.
• 22:05
  Did you see actually side note they made a first-person last of
• 22:08
  us might /. You can play the game in first
• 22:12
  person. It looks really, really weird.
• 22:14
  That is very interesting and I'll have to look into this
• 22:17
  would love and re4 first person mod, if they could do it, like
• 22:20
  how they've done, seven and eight, I would want them.
• 22:23
  I would want cap condo Capcom, they do it?
• 22:25
  Because they can try to do that now.
• 22:27
  Right, you can do the V are beset in seven or eight know
• 22:30
  seven or eight. You could fucking with ya but in
• 22:32
  seven or eight years before you can do the VR version so well,
• 22:35
  seven and eight. Now Capcom is added that third
• 22:37
  person in that game and those can you do for 47.
• 22:40
  I thought it was only 48. Maybe it's just eight but
• 22:42
  regardless like they obviously knew it.
• 22:44
  They just do it, do it? Yeah.
• 22:45
  Its I don't know. Actually, I haven't played re
• 22:48
  Village until it was. Since that I didn't play the DLC
• 22:51
  with rose. I didn't play The Mercenaries or
• 22:54
  third person. I've heard that the DLC.
• 22:56
  I heard the DLC for Roses bad though.
• 22:58
  This is it yeah it's like kind of like quick thing and it's
• 23:00
  like it's really quick and like if you have high me, right?
• 23:04
  Yeah it's not that it's not that good.
• 23:07
  I guess from what I've heard it's got like a lot of negative
• 23:09
  reviews. On Steam but that's not.
• 23:11
  What re4 has no. Sorry for is done really.
• 23:14
  Well, it is critically. Acclaimed.
• 23:17
  It is a loved just like it was back of the day.
• 23:19
  It's still one of those games where it is considered one of
• 23:22
  the greatest games ever made and this this has helped keep it
• 23:27
  spot on that list. Fuck where we start?
• 23:32
  So again graphically I'll start there.
• 23:34
  Beautiful is Flawless, it doesn't it didn't go, looks
• 23:39
  amazing, right? Right.
• 23:40
  But it looks amazing in a Resident Evil way to where the
• 23:43
  Fidelity is there. It's beautiful, it's disgusting,
• 23:46
  it's things are shiny and slimy and gory and but it's not too
• 23:52
  much of a realistic look, but it's realistic enough for
• 23:56
  Resident Evil, it is perfect, the balance is perfect.
• 24:00
  I loved every second of it, I love playing with it.
• 24:02
  On my settings, I played on PC and it was it's a wonderful
• 24:07
  thing to look at that. Gets a fucking Solid 10/10.
• 24:11
  I would agree in in terms of the graphics, I would say that.
• 24:14
  I ran it pretty well. All settings maxed out or nearly
• 24:17
  maxed out, never really went below a bad like framerate never
• 24:21
  really went below life 4550, and that was really rare if I could
• 24:25
  drop down that far anyway, yes I am.
• 24:27
  It had to have been something that was like an explosion right
• 24:29
  in front of me, are a bunch of particles kicked up right in
• 24:31
  front of me? That kind of thing.
• 24:34
  I would say that I loved it. Seems like they don't change
• 24:37
  anything. But yet I feel like each Game
• 24:39
  looks better and better and they don't really yeah, I could
• 24:42
  agree. You know, like re two and three
• 24:44
  look great already to what comes to mind is that first scene
• 24:47
  where Leon Seas the guy's Jaws like ripped off and it's so
• 24:50
  detailed and then you have things like this where you're
• 24:53
  looking at Leon and re4 and his hair is really.
• 24:56
  I love that. They had a hair setting for this
• 24:58
  one. We react, they knew immediately
• 25:00
  like, hey you want to make the hair as realistic as possible.
• 25:02
  We have a we have an option for you there, so you can do that.
• 25:05
  And then you had Ray tracing and you had DL SS and all that stuff
• 25:09
  to make it look. Even better and run better as
• 25:11
  well. So yeah, I would agree the
• 25:13
  graphics, get a 10 out of 10 for me.
• 25:14
  I loved the, I love the lighting, especially the
• 25:17
  lighting, and shadows or what always get me in games like
• 25:20
  this. Because I'm not typically a
• 25:21
  person who enjoys Horror horror adjacent games I'd say re for
• 25:29
  fits into the latter category of that.
• 25:31
  It's very much. Just a it's scary at times, but
• 25:34
  you're given enough ammo and your gear competent enough.
• 25:38
  Your character is to where it's really, there's no threat of
• 25:41
  everything's going to kill you around every corner.
• 25:44
  All right. So but yeah and it which allowed
• 25:47
  me honestly more time to enjoy. I think what kind of goes
• 25:51
  hand-in-hand with Graphics is? Fear and, and, you know, you can
• 25:56
  really create a great atmosphere with really good graphics like
• 25:59
  Ari has and has had since the remakes and seven and eight.
• 26:02
  So everything looking pretty gives you a better atmospheric
• 26:06
  Vibe and to kind of go into the the next thing as this gets a 10
• 26:10
  out of 10 for me. And I want to hear your opinion
• 26:13
  audio. I think for me it's a 10/10.
• 26:17
  The sounds just like you said, everything looks disgusting and
• 26:20
  slimy things, sound disgusting and oh yeah, it's really great.
• 26:24
  Just to hear things around the corner that you don't know.
• 26:27
  There's a couple scenes. I'd like to reference that
• 26:30
  really mess you up with the audio.
• 26:33
  One of them being when you go under the castle and you have to
• 26:36
  deal with whatever the fuck that thing is that has like the red
• 26:39
  mask. I am really, I don't know, I'm
• 26:42
  telling you when I was in Grand Rapids playing that, I had to
• 26:45
  sit there for like 10 minutes and mentally, prepare for
• 26:47
  whatever was ahead of me because I just did not like the noise.
• 26:51
  It's yeah, it just it, I'll be honest.
• 26:54
  It scared me enough to where I was like, you got to really
• 26:57
  think about what you're going to do for the rest of your day.
• 26:59
  It's like, once you commit to this, you can't stop.
• 27:02
  Not gonna lie. I looked up a little bit of some
• 27:04
  YouTube, just to see what was ahead of me.
• 27:06
  All right, I'm just going to say that now, it was, I didn't like
• 27:09
  it. I'm very much.
• 27:11
  A person who doesn't like loud. Like, I don't know what they're
• 27:15
  called. They're probably given a certain
• 27:17
  name. But when they have those really
• 27:19
  quick, like, volume raises of like the the Redlands.
• 27:23
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 27:24
  Yeah, yeah. I just I hate that that I don't
• 27:27
  know what it is about me. I've never gotten used to it.
• 27:29
  Even when I'm even when I'm prepared for it, it'll still get
• 27:31
  me. But with that.
• 27:34
  The audio is so good. The gunshots, the kicks the
• 27:38
  stabs, and obviously, all of the horror elements.
• 27:42
  Yeah, it just, it, it blows my mind.
• 27:44
  I love how it seems, just like graphically every year, the
• 27:47
  audio gets better and better to write, you know, gets more
• 27:50
  ambient, it gets more in your head where you Do you think
• 27:55
  you're hearing something dangerous and then you peek
• 27:56
  around the corner and it's just you know, something blowing in
• 27:59
  the wind or whatever. So yeah, I mean I don't know if
• 28:02
  maybe I summed up everything for you and audio but like I just I
• 28:05
  want to hear what you thought of it audio and visual go
• 28:07
  hand-in-hand for me. That's another perfect 10/10
• 28:10
  without the audio being as great as it is the visual lacks.
• 28:14
  And I know it might sound weird but they really do.
• 28:16
  Go hand in hand here, especially for a game like Resident Evil
• 28:19
  where it's all about. That setting, it's all about
• 28:21
  putting you in the mindset of I don't know what's On this next
• 28:24
  door after this typewriter. And yes, that to me is very
• 28:28
  important. It's very important to subvert.
• 28:32
  Those who have played this game prior and know the tricks.
• 28:36
  They know what's up next and really fuck with them and I
• 28:39
  think it did do that. So it's a perfect 10 out of 10
• 28:43
  right there as well. And for me, art that goes
• 28:46
  hand-in-hand as the gameplay. Yes.
• 28:49
  So the gameplay here is Stellar not a single time.
• 28:53
  Was I shooting or For doubting an enemy to use melee or
• 28:57
  suplexing and enemies still there.
• 28:59
  Yeah, it is. It's, it is as glorious.
• 29:02
  It was even if it's goofy, it's amazing.
• 29:07
  It's good stuff. It's smooth.
• 29:09
  Its fluid. It just fits the game perfectly
• 29:13
  for the aesthetic. It goes for which we'll talk
• 29:14
  about in the next part. You know, it's straightforward
• 29:19
  as Resident Evil game. Just go shoot, stab hit kick and
• 29:25
  climb, and loot, and look and explore.
• 29:28
  It's amazing, it's 10. Another 10 out of 10.
• 29:31
  It's I just cannot praise us enough and I will toss it off to
• 29:35
  you. One thing that II would love to
• 29:39
  mention is that what feels so different from the second and
• 29:43
  third remake and seven, and eight is that I loved the
• 29:46
  variety. Of takedowns and and different
• 29:52
  you're rewarded for trying different things.
• 29:55
  Do you like you? I would find myself later in the
• 29:58
  game. I wouldn't want to waste ammo.
• 30:01
  So what do you do when you don't want to waste?
• 30:02
  Animal will instead of shooting him in the head three times,
• 30:05
  shoot their knees. So that way they drop down so
• 30:08
  you can kick them and deal more damage and then you have a
• 30:10
  Popham once when they get up. So now you've only used two
• 30:12
  bullets. Like I loved that.
• 30:15
  You got those types of moments where you?
• 30:17
  Could kick them in front of you or you could suplex them or if
• 30:21
  you shot them in both legs and they fell to the ground, you
• 30:24
  could stab them or be damaged enough.
• 30:27
  You can just stab him too. Yeah, yeah, right.
• 30:29
  You can just do it right then and there if they if you shoot
• 30:31
  him in the head they cover their eye and then you can you know,
• 30:33
  roundhouse kick them and you deal more damage and not only
• 30:36
  that it's a great crowd control method where you kick like three
• 30:39
  of them back as well. Yeah.
• 30:40
  So like I love the variety of choice that you had like re2 it
• 30:46
  always felt more of the same. I'm right.
• 30:48
  I felt like I had to keep shooting this guy in the head
• 30:50
  and then he would eventually die but I wasted half a magazine or
• 30:53
  a full magazine. Yeah, re3 everybody died, too
• 30:56
  easy. Whereas I feel like this has
• 30:58
  that nice balance of ebb and flow right there.
• 31:01
  You can just shoot people in they'll die easily but you also
• 31:05
  have if hey you're tight on ammo there's some wiggle room there.
• 31:09
  You know, you can use a blade and you can you can hurt them.
• 31:11
  You can shoot barrels that explode and yes.
• 31:15
  Like if you only have Two bullets and you'd rather not
• 31:19
  waste them both shooting this Zombie's head and not killing
• 31:22
  them, you can shoot up their knees and then just stab them,
• 31:24
  you know, you're given a lot of options and along with that,
• 31:27
  what goes hand-in-hand, as you're given a lot more weapons?
• 31:30
  Yes, I was surprised how I just kept finding guns.
• 31:33
  Like I got a couple in the while there.
• 31:36
  Yeah, but nine. Yeah, you get the red nine, the
• 31:38
  MP9, the le5, The Punisher is one that you get with using
• 31:43
  certain tokens. You get like a I don't remember
• 31:46
  what it's It's called I was going to say python but it's
• 31:48
  like a 357 Magnum was the by hop, is it?
• 31:51
  Yeah. Okay.
• 31:52
  Is that what it's called? All right, boys.
• 31:54
  Like the k98, you get M4A1 and another like long range rifle a
• 32:01
  rock with what I used. Yeah.
• 32:03
  Like you're given so much of a variety of weapons which really
• 32:05
  lets you different playstyles, buddy that ads for playstyles.
• 32:08
  Yeah, you get I had like three different shotguns throughout
• 32:11
  the story, I had the one you got for pre-ordering and getting the
• 32:15
  deluxe edition, you get a certain shot.
• 32:17
  And the striker Araya gone. It's a lever action.
• 32:20
  And that's yeah, the riot gun is the the one I was using towards
• 32:23
  the end and then you get the regular one you can unlock in
• 32:25
  the village and when you start or you could also get the
• 32:27
  striker. Yep.
• 32:28
  Yeah. So like you, you have so many
• 32:30
  options for that you have flashbangs grenades.
• 32:32
  Heavy grenades. You know, you're just given tons
• 32:35
  of options in and it just makes it feel so much.
• 32:39
  Like they're like you said, there's different playstyles to
• 32:42
  be had. There's crossbows, you know, you
• 32:43
  can get certain things to just try different, you know, Avenues
• 32:47
  of Of play and see how it works. And I think that what a lot of
• 32:49
  people said, when the game came out, what I would agree with.
• 32:52
  There's a high replay value to this game.
• 32:54
  Oh yeah, you can go back through it and do New Game Plus, and you
• 32:57
  have all this stuff ready to go. So you can max out everything
• 33:00
  and all that stuff. So yeah for me, the gameplay
• 33:03
  gets a perfect 10 out of 10. It's honestly one of the most
• 33:06
  fun games I've played next to Dead Space recently in terms of
• 33:08
  a single player story. Absolutely.
• 33:11
  It's been so much fun. Like I've been playing that Dead
• 33:14
  Space Last of Us Last of Us. It was so fun but I've really
• 33:20
  enjoyed our he's level of gameplay, excitement.
• 33:23
  Like, I mean, there's really not a whole lot different in the
• 33:25
  last of us. So, for me, that, you know, is
• 33:29
  not as cool as the weapons you can get in re for and then for
• 33:32
  being a newcomer to Dead Space, you know I just everything was
• 33:36
  new to me, you know, I didn't do anything.
• 33:39
  Well, the beautiful thing about a lot of this stuff playstyle is
• 33:42
  to its you have different variety and upgrades, you find
• 33:45
  treasure, you put Emeralds and gems and find rare Treasures in
• 33:51
  these keys and these puzzles. And it's all there.
• 33:54
  It's so fun to do all these extra things, these contracts to
• 33:58
  kill rats, find the blue medallions, kill certain enemy
• 34:02
  types, and it's just there for you to do.
• 34:05
  And I appreciate that. It's just an added bit of love
• 34:09
  and add a bit of Adventure for you to keep going.
• 34:11
  And you know and my opinion the last thing to really really
• 34:16
  touch on On here is the story. Yeah, it's still it's red.
• 34:22
  It's red Co for not like nothing has changed.
• 34:26
  There's some differences, but it's still just Rising before.
• 34:30
  If you love the original, you're going to love this.
• 34:33
  If you never played the original but you like the series, you're
• 34:36
  going to love this, you can enjoy it.
• 34:38
  Yeah. Like it's an amazing story.
• 34:41
  It's goofy. It's Japan's take on American
• 34:45
  action. Is what it is.
• 34:47
  It's very apparent. Once you're playing through it,
• 34:50
  how how, like, that's what they did.
• 34:53
  And you could tell us some of the one-liners, that Leon says,
• 34:56
  both in which are corny. But it's all are so corny.
• 34:59
  But I enjoyed every one of them because you must be, huh?
• 35:02
  Yeah, when he shoot, okay buddy, yeah, he shoot somebody in the
• 35:05
  foot and they fall to the ground.
• 35:06
  He goes. You look like you slept and it's
• 35:07
  like, no, you shot him in the foot.
• 35:09
  Who's fucking toe off from. Yeah, dude.
• 35:12
  But like, that's the, that's the corniness in the enjoyment.
• 35:15
  I get out of it as Like I they know it's goofy and I know it's
• 35:19
  goofy and that just makes it more fun.
• 35:20
  We talked earlier a little and that would be, I guess maybe the
• 35:24
  only gripe I have with it but it still gets like a 99 and a half
• 35:27
  out of me because it was so like, it was so minimal to the
• 35:30
  point where it's like, it really doesn't matter.
• 35:32
  I just noticed it and I wanted to point it out as Ashley is
• 35:34
  still the biggest. That's yeah, but I get it, but
• 35:39
  yeah, but what they do with Ashley to is they they knew it
• 35:43
  was annoying. Yeah, so they take her away from
• 35:46
  you few times so it's just she's very minimized.
• 35:49
  So It's it's, it's a good mix. Yeah, so that'd be my leg right?
• 35:56
  Which would knock this game down?
• 35:59
  It wouldn't this game gets a 10 out of 10 for me?
• 36:02
  Sure, thing I would say that it's still gets a 10 out of 10
• 36:05
  for me. The only gripe I really had with
• 36:07
  it was that in terms of a story aspect it's just to a point.
• 36:12
  There are some moments where I was kind of like, okay I get it,
• 36:16
  it's goofy. I don't know if it had to be
• 36:18
  this goofy. Could we take a little bit more
• 36:20
  serious? Yeah, just like, it doesn't have
• 36:22
  to even be more serious. You could have honestly, just
• 36:24
  left that part out and it would have been fine to write.
• 36:26
  Like there are some really goofy moments that I had at both in
• 36:30
  terms of logical scouser and and just one of the hilarious things
• 36:35
  to me was just the the beginning when Leon is about to get killed
• 36:40
  with a chainsaw and he uses like a little bayonet to stop the
• 36:43
  rotating blade and it's just like I get it.
• 36:47
  You're just you know dicking around but like that doesn't
• 36:50
  work at all weird. I remember those chainsaw guys
• 36:54
  being a lot. Scarier.
• 36:56
  When I was a kid who just well, that was actually, that was a
• 37:00
  part of the group. I had really was that I had
• 37:02
  heard? Well, yes, I would agree.
• 37:04
  The chainsaw guys are scary and with what we had earlier
• 37:08
  teenager, though. Yeah.
• 37:10
  And you look, I guess what we were going to.
• 37:12
  But we were going to talk about earlier or what we had mentioned
• 37:15
  earlier. And you had said, how you never
• 37:17
  got past the lake monster and neither did.
• 37:18
  I was that one of the enemy's back?
• 37:20
  Then that was so exciting. For a lot of people was this,
• 37:23
  like, butchered that has two really big.
• 37:25
  Blades for his gums and he's blind.
• 37:28
  So you had to be quiet and that was going to be one of the
• 37:30
  group's I had is that it sometimes the game felt too easy
• 37:33
  because that guy dies if you know Resident Evil game is, you
• 37:38
  know, that what you shoe for are the big ugly eyes or wherever
• 37:41
  tentacles are coming out. Yes.
• 37:42
  And that guy's weak spot is his back, so it's like I landed in
• 37:46
  that area and he started walking away from me, so it's, I got a
• 37:49
  perfect sight line on his back. All it took was like it, took
• 37:52
  233 rifle shots with that k98, and he was It.
• 37:56
  So it's like that whole atmosphere of being scared and
• 38:00
  like fighting a boss. Was pretty much taken away
• 38:02
  instantly because he died so easily and my guns weren't
• 38:05
  really upgraded either. He just were generators, the
• 38:09
  regenerate always annoying but they get all spiky.
• 38:14
  Like you said, I'm like this. So annoying.
• 38:16
  This is a going. Yeah, it definitely like the
• 38:20
  enemy types are cool. I'd say I really like the look
• 38:22
  of them like they do. There were generators are scary
• 38:25
  as shit. Like, I'm not gonna lie.
• 38:26
  I like, if I saw one of those knocking on my door, I'd be
• 38:29
  like, all right everybody. We just it's over, just give up.
• 38:31
  Like, yeah, I'm kill myself. Yeah, you're over.
• 38:34
  It's over, like there's nothing you can do, but, you know,
• 38:37
  again, they're not that scary. Until like you said, you get the
• 38:41
  biosensor scope and it's like, oh well now I had it and now I
• 38:43
  know how to count like, oh, that's so I'm boom.
• 38:45
  Boom. All your Reviving 123.
• 38:48
  I your head blows up. Yeah, and even then that's still
• 38:51
  easy because you can shoot them before they even really start to
• 38:53
  deal any damage. And all you have to do when they
• 38:55
  are Mikey is just hide behind something which is relatively
• 38:58
  easy to do. Yeah, that's yeah, that's it.
• 39:01
  I thought, you know, but yeah, like those would be the really
• 39:04
  only good like grapes I had was that?
• 39:06
  Yes, some gameplay. It just felt too easy.
• 39:08
  And then there are just some parts of the story where it's
• 39:10
  like, okay. All right, I get that, it's
• 39:12
  goofy. But this is like your it's as
• 39:14
  I'm not sure if you're in on it so much or if this is just how
• 39:18
  it was back then, but like I said, those would be the only
• 39:20
  two issues I had and honestly for me, I still give it a 10 out
• 39:24
  of 10 even with those It's just so much fun certified
• 39:28
  Masterpiece I'd say on wahds and I would agree.
• 39:31
  Yeah certified Masterpiece May every second of it.
• 39:33
  There is a teaser for re5 the in the computer screen.
• 39:37
  Yes. There's just a you're like it's
• 39:40
  there. I went oh, there it is.
• 39:42
  Okay, I guess. Yeah, yeah, it's a little tease.
• 39:45
  I would like to see five remade. The only thing I am not excited
• 39:49
  for about five is I don't remember what they were called,
• 39:51
  but I remember playing them when I was a kid and they have At
• 39:56
  later, point in the story, there are these giant.
• 39:58
  They look like giant ants, but they stand on two legs.
• 40:01
  Oh yeah, those dumb ass and I know.
• 40:04
  Yeah, here's the thing. Or if it's already 5:00 and
• 40:07
  Africa is already 6, R E5 isn't Africa.
• 40:11
  I don't know that Carl re6 takes place in like three different
• 40:14
  places or something. Yeah all I ask is that if there
• 40:17
  is anybody who knows somebody from Capcom or somebody from
• 40:21
  Capcom listens to this as a huge like major fan it's not Putting
• 40:26
  like bio mutated bugs in your games.
• 40:28
  It really makes me not want to play him sometimes.
• 40:31
  Well, the body for I really don't know, I had the worst time
• 40:35
  dealing with the flying ones. In this game, dude, I heard
• 40:37
  them. And I literally that when I got
• 40:39
  to that section, yeah, I paused I had to walk away.
• 40:42
  I hate, I hate bugs. I hate anything with more than
• 40:46
  four legs. Like, it's just the worst, but
• 40:50
  luckily, those guys are pretty easy.
• 40:52
  I don't remember them being easy when I played five herbal before
• 40:56
  in, for you, whether they're pretty 3, pistol shots, and they
• 40:59
  fall, you stab them. They're done.
• 41:00
  Yeah, I remember five. It felt like every single one of
• 41:03
  those was hard and as soon as they got to you, like, you were
• 41:05
  insta dead. And, you know, yeah.
• 41:07
  My biggest fear is being killed by an ant.
• 41:09
  That's 8 feet tall. It's at home, kill us all fast.
• 41:15
  Exactly. Yeah, that's exactly why I base
• 41:17
  Coast joke. Everybody Space Ghost Coast to
• 41:19
  Coast joke. Hey skills.
