1:14
Hello, ladies and gentlemen. My name is Brett Keene and you
1:17
are watching, listening to the Brett Keene Show.
1:20
God, TV, radio. I hope you're all having a
1:23
wonderful day out there. Today we're going to be playing
1:26
some Baldur's Gate 3, and we're going to discuss games as well
1:31
as politics, as well as what's happening in the world.
1:36
Yay, good stuff. As many of you know, Balder's
1:42
Gate 3 has the same history as Dragon's Dogma.
1:45
Dragon's Dogma was one of those games where it just started out
1:49
and took several years before they got around to actually
1:53
making a sequel and making one that's more enhanced and more
1:56
better. A lot of people out there, they
1:59
ask me, bro, why are you so into RPGs and why have you been like
2:03
such a fan of Bethesda? Well, I like games with
2:06
different alternatives. I've played thousands of games
2:10
where you're just playing A2 dimensional character with a
2:13
storyline already behind it doing your thing.
2:16
But I like games where you can create your own character, and
2:19
usually whenever I'm creating a character, I create one.
2:23
That is what it would be me if I lived in that world.
2:27
I like to immerse myself. I like to feel like I've
2:30
invested myself into the actual world.
2:33
And then of course, any achievement or accomplishment
2:37
that I do, it makes me feel really good.
2:39
Video games can really help yourself esteem, you know, In
2:43
normal life, I'm just a guy who pays bills.
2:46
I go out and I get groceries for my family and we try to do our
2:50
thing. But in the video game world, I
2:52
can be the Dragonborn or the star born or, you know, the
2:56
hero. I do like games where you start
3:00
out being a nobody, though, and you basically build yourself up.
3:04
And I've also been really getting into indie games where
3:07
you kind of just, you know, just build yourself up, but you're
3:13
not really meant to be like some kind of superhero or villain or
3:17
anything like that. You just kind of living off the
3:20
land, so I've been getting into a lot of survival type of games
3:24
lately. I do like that.
3:26
I think that one of the best survival modes that I've played
3:30
in a game is Fallout 4, where you eat, then you're affected by
3:34
the cold and all that. Skyrim survival mode wasn't too
3:39
bad, but Fallout 4 was excellent.
3:42
The crafting system was a lot more intuitive, a lot more
3:45
easier for me, so I enjoyed that.
3:50
Well, Boulder's Gate 3, it offers a lot of alternatives, It
3:57
offers a lot of alternate endings, You can meet people,
4:02
make companions and all that. That's one of my favorite things
4:05
about games nowadays. A lot of my friends and a lot of
4:12
people out there when you play like an MMO or an RPG, a lot of
4:16
people for some reason they're more concerned with leveling up
4:20
really fast or getting to the late in the content of games
4:25
like World of Warcraft. And they don't spend much time
4:28
exploring or really immersing themselves into a game.
4:33
So I find playing with other people to be annoying.
4:36
I mean, even in World of Warcraft, I got burnt out with
4:39
my own brother because he didn't want to, you know, explore Elwyn
4:44
Forest. He didn't want to look around
4:46
Westfall for treasures or or see anything.
4:50
He just wanted to, like, get through the quest until he was a
4:53
high enough level where he could just repeat and rinse, dungeon
4:57
after dungeon after raid after raid.
5:00
And I mean, folks, what's what's the point of doing a game if
5:06
you're just going to do the same thing over and over again?
5:09
If I do do repeat playthroughs in a game, it's because I want
5:13
to try new stuff, I want to try something different.
5:17
And a lot of people, they don't have that way of thought
5:21
process. So for me, when a game offers
5:24
like companions, I just heard recently that the new expansion
5:28
of World of Warcraft is going to offer people the ability to go
5:32
into dungeons with AI. I went into over 50 dungeons
5:37
since I just started playing World of Warcraft recently and
5:43
it's annoying, it's boring. A lot of the characters are
5:47
nursed out where the warrior doesn't even hardly need a
5:51
healer anymore. They can just go in and they
5:54
just run through it and grab as many mobs as they possibly can.
5:58
And you get this because you got a lot of these narcissistic
6:01
people that are like, look at me and IA great tank, and they end
6:05
up grabbing mob after mob after mob.
6:07
And of course, if you fire into that mod, you're going to aggro
6:11
and then bring several characters on yourself and have
6:14
to fight them. And a lot of these things, they
6:17
don't even bother to do anything.
6:20
Hey, my son just came in. I'm sitting here talking about
6:23
RPGSMMOS while doing a thing of this.
6:27
You want to sit with me and talk?
6:28
Sure. All right, we got Balder's Gate
6:33
footage going and just sitting here having a conversation about
6:37
the different games. So Skyrim just recently got an
6:42
update. Today they changed the entire
6:45
mod set up where people can now do pay mods.
6:49
A person build something really awesome, they can get paid for
6:53
it. How do you feel about that?
6:56
So you're saying they changed that creation kit?
6:58
The Creation Club is now in installed with the mods
7:03
themselves. So now when you go, you'll see
7:05
all their stuff at the top and then all the modders underneath.
7:08
And now whenever you upload a mod, people can buy it.
7:12
They can also put it up for free, but it was Bethesda's way
7:15
of making a percentage off of things.
7:17
You may want to let me put the microphone over this way for you
7:21
so you can be heard more clear all.
7:23
Right. So they integrated the public
7:29
mods into the microtransaction system for the OK, That sounds
7:39
neat. And they're also recreating the
7:42
Creation Kit. So it's a lot more intuitive
7:44
where a normal, you know, layman person who doesn't know much
7:48
about scripting will be able to get in there and say, oh, I'd
7:52
like to make myself a companion or make a quest for the game or
7:56
do something to items and all that kind of stuff.
7:59
They just got them doing that with Skyrim and and a little
8:02
bit. I'm going to check out the new
8:04
system. I looked at some videos, aren't
8:06
it? It looks interesting, and
8:09
supposedly they're supposed to add more mod space.
8:12
Well, if they're able to do that with Skyrim, I don't see why
8:15
they wouldn't be able to do it with Fallout 4.
8:17
Well, they are. They're going to do it with
8:18
Fallout 4, and they're going to do it with Starfield.
8:21
That's a tall. Order.
8:23
Yeah, but they they're starting with that first, then Fallout 4,
8:27
then Starfield. And they're supposed to get all
8:29
this done before the end of December.
8:32
But Skyrim's already complete more space, more mods, more all
8:36
that kind of stuff. So it's interesting.
8:39
Goodness gracious, the creative character in this game is
8:44
extensive. So what's your favorite kind of
8:48
games you've been playing? The The Rain game.
8:50
Rain Two? Talk a little bit about that,
8:52
but you got to talk at the mic. Yeah, I know.
8:56
Risk of Rain? Two.
8:58
It's a third person rogue like now.
9:01
It isn't just more so in the third person shooter or RPGs.
9:06
Doesn't have to be both, but usually I try to avoid first
9:12
person shooters or first person rogue lights.
9:14
There's not a lot of those out there, but still, man, it's run
9:18
into them whenever I'm looking for the ones I do like.
9:23
I'm going to be doing this for just a little while and then
9:25
I'll come in and we'll talk more, unless you want to chat
9:29
with me on this video. I want mine.
9:33
OK, sounds good. And my son, he just came over
9:37
and everything to visit and kind of surprised me a little bit
9:41
while I was in the middle of the broadcast.
9:43
And as much as I like talking to you all out there, I always
9:46
enjoy hanging out with my son more.
9:48
But he's decided he's going to participate in this and then
9:52
we'll move on from it. So you got to play Baldur's Gate
9:56
a little bit. What's your thought process in
9:59
this game? Well, learning and study is
10:05
really went above and beyond to make sure it was you had as many
10:10
options as possible and I like the that diversity when it comes
10:14
to choices quite a bit and the impact it has on the story, it's
10:18
very nice. What is what would you say is
10:21
the difference between this and something like World of
10:24
Warcraft, even whenever it comes to like character creation?
10:31
Well, seems to be a lot of options like I said before.
10:39
You get to like, create your own abilities and stuff and like
10:43
really customize how your character is going to play on
10:47
the screen. Yeah, there's a lot of fine
10:49
tuning right as far as the the kit goes with starting
10:53
abilities, and I'm not sure how learning new abilities works if
10:56
you have to get skill books or if it's a skill tree or what it
11:00
may be. I just found out about World of
11:04
Warcraft is about to add a new expansion where they have
11:07
artificial intelligence. You will no longer have to wait
11:11
for a load time to get into dungeons and World of Warcraft.
11:15
You'll get a if some humans can come with you if you got an
11:20
entire group, but if you don't you can.
11:22
AI will fill the place and people have been playing the
11:26
public test server to see what that's like, and so far it's
11:30
pretty cool. Unfortunately, the AI seems to
11:33
only be installed on the Dragonflight dungeons right now,
11:36
and there's tons of them, but I'm hoping that they make it to
11:40
where you know, you can go into something like the Dead Mines or
11:43
Raging Chasm and all that with that 'cause I get so tired of
11:48
it. I've been in a / 50 dungeons
11:50
already with pug groups and they run ahead.
11:54
I like I got a death Knight recently.
11:56
Oh yeah, by the way, you remember I had said, hey son,
12:00
can you help me with this? Well, I went in to do the Death
12:02
Knight and they changed the entire introduction.
12:06
So now all you do is you end up in the Ice Citadel and you go up
12:10
and you talk to the Lich King while he's in ice and he says
12:14
you are now a, you know, a death knight and go on my death
12:19
Warrior, blah blah blah, do your thing and then you go through a
12:22
portal and while you're in storm, there's no big long
12:26
process like before. Well, is there a way to do the
12:30
big long process? Because I did like a lot of the
12:33
flavor having surrounding the fight on The Crusaders or
12:37
whatever they're called the the Scarlet.
12:40
Yeah. Oh, you're asking is there a way
12:43
to be able to do the old content?
12:45
Yeah, the the vanilla Wrath Lich King.
12:49
Yes. Once you get out of the Ice
12:51
Citadel and you appear in front of Stormwind, you're giving all
12:54
these little buttons at the bottom, and one of them is the
12:57
gate thing. The Death Gate.
13:00
Yeah, the Death Gate. And you can go through that.
13:03
And then go through one of those.
13:05
You remember how you stand on a platform and that warps you down
13:09
to the second level. So yeah, you do that.
13:12
You get your sword all ruined up and then you could go do that if
13:16
you wanted to. But what's cool about it is you
13:19
could run around and quest up, level up, and then come back and
13:23
do it if you want to, at a more higher level to do it.
13:27
Yeah, yeah, I'll. Have to sit on that because
13:30
that's the first time I'm hearing about it.
13:32
I didn't know either. Remember trying to do a death
13:35
knight a while back? My son is really gifted a death
13:38
knight. You should have seen him in PvP.
13:40
He was bigoted and hateful to all those people, Killed every
13:44
single thing in front of him. It was awesome.
13:47
And dungeons. He was unstoppable even before
13:49
the game became nerfed. Well now you don't have to do a
13:52
long, you know, two hour long intro.
13:56
You can just get out of there and just come back whenever you
13:58
want. And a lot of things in Warcraft
14:01
seems to be our convenience table.
14:04
All right, So Baldur's Gate, I think.
14:07
I feel as though, even though the game is very customizable, I
14:11
feel like the intro's a little. It's just a little.
14:16
I like it. Whenever you start a game in the
14:19
tutorial area is like really simple right now.
14:23
You're like on an alien ship or something, and you're talking to
14:28
like right here we're about to talk to a a brain and pull it
14:32
out of its head. It seems like there was just too
14:34
much at the very beginning. How do you feel about that?
14:36
Do you like getting thrown right into the game, or do you prefer
14:40
kind of like a war cut to restart out of North Shire and
14:43
just kill a couple wolves and get the hang of the game?
14:48
It was a lot at once. We'll say that please before
14:51
they return. I I believe that it just comes
14:58
down to whether you want a blank slate or a lot of flare and
15:03
fireworks when you first get in, like congratulations, you're in
15:06
the game. I feel like that's the second
15:10
one was the route this game went with it, but I always appreciate
15:15
getting in the little kids sandbox at 1st and then being
15:18
allowed into the world later on. It just kind of depends on the
15:23
game. I don't think it was the wrong
15:25
way to do it. Well, don't you?
15:28
Don't you feel a little weird? I mean, let me let me give you
15:31
an example. If I were to ask you, how did we
15:33
even get on the ship in the 1st place?
15:36
Why are we tied up? And what the hell is these
15:39
little worm maggots that got put in my eyeball?
15:42
Yeah, it makes you ask a lot of questions right at the
15:44
beginning. But I think as long as it has
15:49
the, I guess, integrity to answer those questions and the
15:54
creativity to make you ask more later, you know that they could
15:58
probably keep that train of mystery going on for a while.
16:03
Well, as people know, whenever I do my broadcast, I like to jump
16:06
all over the place in different conversations whenever I think
16:09
of something neat. So I don't know if you've heard,
16:12
but they have made, I think I spoke to you a little bit about
16:16
this. They are working on the new
16:19
Highlander movie and Henry Cavilla is going to be the main
16:22
Highlander. How do you feel about that?
16:24
Well, I feel like we're jumping around topics quite a bit, but I
16:28
am excited to see that. I feel like he'd be great for
16:32
the role and I think a lot of people would accept him a lot,
16:36
especially since he's coming off the the road from what is it,
16:42
The Witcher and the Superman role as well.
16:49
Yeah, The Witcher. We actually got to see some of
16:51
his sword abilities. So I think that watching Henry
16:56
Cavill and the way they do edits nowadays and videos, I think
17:00
that, you know, after watching a lot of reruns of Duncan McLeod
17:04
and Connor, it was good sword fighting.
17:07
But you kind of can tell that the enemies are swinging way too
17:11
high to make sure they don't cut each other.
17:13
They say that a lot of people got chopped up in the Highlander
17:17
for real because Christopher Lambert was practically blind.
17:21
He couldn't see, so people had to swing their sword directly at
17:24
them. And you can kind of notice that
17:26
when you go back and watch. But I'm wondering, one of the
17:29
things that made Highlander interesting was Queen music.
17:34
What are they going to do with this?
17:36
You know, because if they put like hip hop at the beginning of
17:39
the theme song of Highlander, I don't think people are going to
17:42
buy it. I'm not sure what music they
17:46
could use, but the only thing I'm for sure on is that they're
17:51
probably not going to make Henry Cavill like a villainous
17:54
Highland because he seems to be getting typecast into heroic or
17:58
anti hero type moles. So he'd probably be on the
18:04
winning team. It's true, Boy, this game looks
18:11
rough. Dead.
18:14
Well, the yeah, but I mean the graphics are really nice.
18:17
The presentation is on point. Oh goodness.
18:23
I've been trying to figure out a way to stream video games from
18:28
Xbox to the PC because they don't have an app to allow that.
18:33
You can do it on Twitch, but it's a it's a pain in the Ace.
18:38
You know that I've always said I like Xbox more than PS4 or PS5,
18:43
but PS4 was really easy to live stream as where Xbox isn't seems
18:49
like a better recording but you can't just plug your microphone
18:52
into the machine and make it work and it's pretty horrific.
18:58
So yeah, assume they're going to be coming out with an expansion
19:01
of war within a World of Warcraft, all that AI and neat
19:06
stuff. Now boulders gate, the combat is
19:10
obviously a lot different. There's a lot more strategy to
19:15
it is where Warcraft is more like a turn based game where you
19:19
just kind of take turns pounding each other back and forth until
19:23
somebody goes bye bye and there's that.
19:26
Let me know out there in the comments if you guys want to see
19:29
some more World of Warcraft footage and all that.
19:32
Yep, Yep, Yep, Let's see. So I was talking a little bit
19:36
about Dragon Dogma 2 coming out. I've been watching a lot of
19:39
footage. Apparently some people have been
19:41
given a free copy of it, and it looks it definitely blows Skyrim
19:47
out of the water. It looks graphically as good as
19:49
something like Starfield, and it's got a pawn system and it
19:55
makes it more easier to create as many pawns as you want and
20:00
switch them out and stuff. That's gonna be pretty neat.
20:03
It seems like the game is maybe not directly competing with
20:09
Dragon Age, since that's a a much older game, but it is as
20:15
term as term as genres go very similar.
20:20
You know you have the party based third person combat,
20:23
medieval age you got to. I don't know if they're going to
20:27
follow the Risen main story like they did with the first game,
20:32
but it had a similar feel to the Inquisition from the Dragon Age.
20:37
3rd game And So what do you think about all this?
20:43
I really, really believe that in the next within, from here to
20:48
the next 10 years, we're going to be seeing some games do some
20:52
extraordinary jumps in technology, environments,
20:57
character building and all that due to artificial intelligence.
21:00
Like literally right now if I wanted to I could go to ChatGPT
21:05
and say can you write a script for me?
21:09
I can actually get a script for a storyline, for a quest.
21:12
And then with the new Creation Kit I can simply use AI to say I
21:17
need the script in order to make it to where this character does
21:21
this or this and and a quest or movement.
21:24
So I really think that if Warcraft's already starting to
21:28
do it, Bethesda, they've already got some AI and Skyrim as well
21:32
as Fallout 4. Now if they start really getting
21:36
into that, I think the games are going to get huge and a lot more
21:41
will be seen. How do you feel about artificial
21:43
intelligence? Well, 10 years ago, I could have
21:46
told you that graphics were going to get better, performance
21:49
was going to get higher. I had no idea that AI was going
21:53
to come out and be as uncanny as it was, and how it could fool
21:57
somebody in thinking that somebody's actually talking to
21:59
you. It's another thing.
22:01
Yeah, it's yeah, it's looking pretty interesting seeing get
22:07
integrated in the games that we like much as it is.
22:11
I seen something that kind of terrified me with AI recently.
22:15
Someone was playing Skyrim, and you know that little old woman
22:20
that's off from Riverwood up in their own little house up in the
22:23
mountain? Yeah, OK, well, this person took
22:26
their AI up. There was a female playing
22:29
Skyrim and she was sitting there talking to the lady and then her
22:33
AI just suddenly bugged out and it stabbed the old woman with a
22:38
sword and then held her up in the air, slammed her down.
22:41
And then the girl asked the AI over the microphone.
22:44
She said, why did you kill that old woman for her?
22:47
I was talking to her and the AI said to her, and a woman's voice
22:52
said that wasn't me and she goes, what do you mean it wasn't
22:56
you? I just watched you, the woman,
22:59
everybody who was watching the video seen it.
23:02
She goes you might have been thinking of something else
23:05
because I didn't do it. I would never kill anyone unless
23:08
you told me to because she's literally arguing back and forth
23:12
with the AI and the AI is lying it's ass off saying no, I didn't
23:16
do that. So that was pretty.
23:19
That was pretty weird. I didn't think artificial
23:22
intelligence had the ability to lie.
23:26
Find it bugged out and not realized what it did?
23:28
Not sure. It's supposed to keep a log of
23:32
their experiences. Like you can say what did we do
23:36
2 quest ago? And the AI will say, well we
23:39
took on a dragon and it was a phenomenal fight and all that
23:43
and it'll talk all dramatic about it.
23:45
But whenever she told it to, you know, rewind back to what it did
23:50
and it said, it even lied and said I'm sorry but I don't have
23:54
anything in my log about me killing anything.
23:56
So it just continuously lied. It kind of reminds me of Skynet
24:01
Terminator a little bit. I don't think the AI is going to
24:07
be 100% perfect because after all, you're going to think that
24:11
it's also made by human beings that are not perfect.
24:14
So I kind of take on those crates sometimes, I guess.
24:21
I'm not saying that that behaviors are transferred, but,
24:25
you know, you could make a slip up in coding and pause something
24:29
that resembles human behavior and equate it to that, you know,
24:34
being a hip cup of with the AI. But obviously whoever put in the
24:38
mod may have completely unrecognizable at first done.
24:43
Some kind of history type typo, you know, I don't know.
24:48
I hear you there. I'm not sure how it works.
24:50
Console remains. There's a YouTuber out there
24:53
called I am Crusty or Crust or something like that where he
24:57
does VR and AI with gyrum and it's crazy.
25:02
Brings this kid around with him whenever he's going out doing
25:05
this thing and for whatever reason, just to be funny, I
25:09
guess he'll reach out in VR, grab the kid by the arm or the
25:13
top of the head and sling the kid off and make him land in a
25:17
river or something like that. I'm like, damn, you can actually
25:21
grab people and like, hold them hostage when someone's throwing
25:24
arrows at you or something. Yeah, I've seen that.
25:28
I don't how did they manage to do that?
25:30
But you can't do any of that kind of stuff in the if you're
25:34
playing with a controller. Well, I think it has to do with
25:41
how you're controlling the character with the controller.
25:45
By changing the camera and just moving your X&Y position with
25:51
the left stick. With the VR you're able to
25:56
simulate your character's arms movements with to individual
26:00
controllers to images and open space, which is 3D Yankee
26:05
Warrior and just kind of take control of the rag doll system
26:09
to make it look like you're grabbing things.
26:11
I mean, I I'm sure it's a very difficult thing to code, but I
26:17
think that's the cut and dry of it to have to imagine.
26:24
If you could create your own game.
26:27
You and I, we talked about this before, but I think people out
26:30
there find this interesting. If you were given a huge budget
26:34
and you could make a game, do you have any idea what kind of
26:37
story it would be? Would it be a ninja?
26:39
Would it be like Fallout? I mean, what would you do with
26:42
something if you had full control?
26:46
Let's let's answer changes depending on what.
26:52
Here it is for me because I I play different things all the
26:54
time. But I think I've given the same
26:58
answer that a rogue like type game with lots of side quests to
27:05
do and unlocks to get would be my type of game I'd want to
27:11
make. I probably wouldn't go overboard
27:14
with the graphics or anything, but I would make the gameplay
27:18
very tight and responsive and fun to manage and all that
27:22
thing. See any other parts you'd want
27:29
to add to that, like Easter eggs.
27:33
Well, I've never been too big on like a that kind of stuff.
27:39
I'm mostly an explorer, like to find all kinds of items.
27:42
I was just going on earlier about what it's like nowadays.
27:47
I see that World of Warcraft has gotten more advanced and
27:51
graphically better, but the people, the community still, you
27:56
know, just kind of run through everything, type of attitude.
27:59
That's why I'm looking forward to AI, so I can take my time
28:03
with stuff. Boy, this game looks crazy.
28:06
It almost looks like a movie sometimes.
28:09
Yeah, a lot of cinema stuff in this one.
28:14
They do a really good job, but I guess the camera work and the
28:20
lighting really adds a lot in a like a depth of you being in the
28:26
moment with the characters like you're really standing there.
28:30
Another game they made, Larian did Divinity 2, didn't have the
28:34
same what I just said, they can't work with lighting.
28:38
They mostly relied on the combat to carry the game, so they
28:43
really went in a different direction.
28:45
They can't. They kept the main gameplay
28:46
loop, but they kind of allowed you to flow with the characters
28:50
better than be in their shoes, I guess.
28:54
What's your favorite kind of combat system when playing a
28:57
game? I mean, do you prefer shooters,
28:59
RPGs, what? What are you mostly into that
29:04
brings you enjoyment? I think the most third person
29:13
shooting seems to be the one I can handle for the longest time
29:19
for like 40 minutes at a time. I can handle like I get the most
29:23
excitement from probably third person like sword fighting type
29:27
games, as odd as it sounds. But I can get invested enough to
29:35
get angry at what's happening because I become the sore loser
29:38
pretty quick in those scenarios. There's something really weighty
29:42
and impactful about getting hit by a sword that makes you get
29:46
the makes the stakes high. I guess you know it's supposed
29:50
to get shot. The Warcraft has done something
29:54
that a lot of games have done that you enjoy.
29:56
They've created a Permadeff system and wild classic.
30:02
How do you feel about that playing in a a game that could
30:05
take years to be able to get anywhere in it and then you get
30:08
killed and you can't come back? Well, I've heard some horror
30:13
stories about players getting killed over baloney type
30:18
situations. I saw a rate go down where
30:22
somebody come on, pulled something into the wrong corner
30:25
of the map and then it causes an electric some kind of like party
30:29
wide wife of the whole group is pretty visceral, I got to say.
30:36
And that's every person having to start from level 1 after
30:39
losing that character. I don't think I actually would
30:44
want to invest in something like that.
30:46
I mean, there's hardcore and then there's like, I guess this,
30:53
the risk factor is too high in a game like that because other
30:57
people could mess you over. You could clip through the
31:00
ground and die that way. Did you just mix?
31:03
You know, I've seen a lot of things go wrong, how people can
31:07
go down dangerous. But a lot of your games like
31:10
Dark Souls that's got a perm and dust system right?
31:13
I. I would say to the second game
31:18
had a more penalizing to die. It wasn't exactly perma death,
31:26
but you could lag behind and your currency is to make the
31:30
game much harder on yourself, which for a lot of people would
31:35
cause them to restart their game anyway.
31:40
Also, there isn't really a chance as long as you didn't
31:45
play online for you to get ganged online.
31:48
You know, World of Warcraft is always online.
31:50
Yeah, that's true. World of Warcraft's a lot worse
31:53
than that. And for a guy like me who's well
31:56
known on the Internet, I mean, there was people used to record
32:01
videos and streams a while back where they'd hunt my ass all
32:04
over the place. And if I'm live streaming at the
32:07
time where I'm at, or my location, people who played
32:11
Warcraft for a long time, they'll be like, oh, I know
32:13
where he's at. And especially since I'm very
32:16
informed about where I'm at in the 1st place.
32:19
Doesn't take a genius to find out, you know, where is Brett
32:22
Keene at in the game? So you have the whole
32:24
permadeaths system in a online game is just no good for me.
32:29
I can't do that. Yeah, I believe I've heard a
32:32
term for that called stream sniping where you interrupt the
32:36
stream by seeing what somebody's doing and basically strategize
32:43
to kind of stop what your goal was.
32:47
Yeah, I had some people a while back that haunted me and my
32:50
brother down and wanted to gank us level 100 versus level 60s.
32:55
That wasn't very nice at all because you know, you could be a
32:59
level. If you got a person who's level
33:02
100, it could be a 5 year old banging on the keyboard and
33:04
they'll be able to beat you. It doesn't take any skill.
33:07
That was one of the problems I always had with games like World
33:10
of Warcraft. It wasn't about skill.
33:12
It was about what kind of gear you were wearing and you know
33:18
how much more level system you had over somebody else.
33:23
That's why I like games like Skyrim.
33:25
If you're good, you could be able to take on something that's
33:28
much higher level than you. Yeah.
33:32
Oh boy. Is there anything that you've
33:34
seen lately on Steam or console that you think is going to be an
33:38
interesting game in the future? Well, we already mentioned
33:44
Dragon Dogma 2, State of Decay Three had a trailer a while
33:49
back, but that hasn't I haven't seen that in any stores yet.
33:54
Let's see, Risk. Your Brain too is getting a new
34:01
DLC, apparently. That's more for me though.
34:07
Let's see. Do you have you heard anything
34:12
about Elder Scrolls 6 yet? I've been hearing a lot about
34:15
it, but that doesn't seem like that's going to be out for
34:18
another few years. Wow, that's sad.
34:21
Probably going to put the nuts and bolts to the creation kit
34:26
before they get around to that I guess.
34:29
Well, ladies and gentlemen, the next live stream I do, I think
34:33
I'm going to talk about DeSantis and Donald Trump and some more
34:37
political stuff. But I wanted to hang out with my
34:40
son, do some more games. I'm going to show him something
34:43
real quick and then go out, throw some cookies down his
34:46
throat and perhaps some homemade chicken noodle that the Mama
34:50
bear made. I hope you guys all enjoyed
34:52
this. I don't want to play too much
34:54
more. Put any more content out there
34:56
of this 'cause it'll ruin it for you.
34:58
This is one of those games where you create your own storyline,
35:02
and I don't want to spoil it for you.
35:04
This is just a tutorial area. Your introduction.
35:08
God bless. Have a good one, ladies and
35:10
gentlemen.
