Latest / WASD and Beyond / HOTFIX: The road to episode 69!
Transcript
- 0:00Optics. It's a hot night.
- 1:08Hello everybody and welcome back to another episode of a wasd.
- 1:12Hotfix as always. I'm accompanied by the wonderful
- 1:16Matthew grants. I had a way better intro for
- 1:19him. But then the website we used
- 1:22reset itself. So now he just gets wonderful.
- 1:25Well, Nick is saying is that he fucked up and he's trying to
- 1:28blame it on the internet. He's trying to act like he's
- 1:30Timmy Turner and fairy godparents.
- 1:33Just like fucking what the fuck do you do here?
- 1:35Yeah, internet. Yeah, the internet.
- 1:38Timmy ever got caught looking at things.
- 1:40He maybe shouldn't have been looking at a hundred and fifteen
- 1:43thousand percent. Yeah.
- 1:44Oh, yeah, actually, no, no, because it away.
- 1:48Yeah. A, he could wish it away if you
- 1:49really needed it to or be the fact, I mean, he has Fairly
- 1:53Godparents because he's a, like, a neglected child in the first
- 1:57place, right? Nobody fucking cares about them.
- 1:59Yeah, his dad's got his mom and dad.
- 2:00Don't go fucking no and Vicki's. A fucking piece of shit.
- 2:04Yeah. She's a bitch.
- 2:05Also. We talked on mr.
- 2:07Crocker. Mr. Crocker, if that if there
- 2:10was a teacher, like mr. Crocker following me around all
- 2:13the time, screaming about my fairies.
- 2:16I think my dad would put put one between his eyes.
- 2:20It shouldn't be very hard to get that teacher fired.
- 2:22Yeah, right. I mean they can still stalk you
- 2:24and your in their off time, I guess until they get caught
- 2:27doing that but like yeah, mr. Crocker sitting.
- 2:30There was a bunch of his quote unquote, fairy dust in the palm
- 2:33of his hand. You know, I'm saying I'm gonna
- 2:35get Timmy. And I'm saying not good.
- 2:40That's kind of, I understand what you're trying to say.
- 2:43I don't approve of what you're trying to say, took it to a dark
- 2:45spot. This is a hotfix though.
- 2:46All the haha that's will be saved for the main episode.
- 2:49I'm sure we'll go right back into mr.
- 2:51Crocker, being a problematic character.
- 2:54So me, Evan in myself, rather. We're on Diggity podcast
- 3:01recently. We did talk about this subject,
- 3:03but I did think it'd be cool to kind of touch up a little Lil
- 3:07Bit on the Sony showcase to see what you thought of a couple
- 3:11games, we're going to go through all of them.
- 3:12Just the games that I thought, maybe, because I'll be giving
- 3:15my, I'll be giving Matthew my PS4 and I would have a PS5.
- 3:19I just a PS4 is going to collect dust if I don't, I don't get all
- 3:23the hand-me-downs, all the hand-me-downs.
- 3:26Yes, but a couple key games. I really wanted to maybe bring
- 3:30up and see what you thought of the first.
- 3:32Being, the Knights of the Old Republic remake.
- 3:35That's pretty sweet. I think that might only be for
- 3:37PS5 though. Well, yeah, so like a lot of
- 3:40these are going to be free for PS5 but just like in general,
- 3:43like your take on. That is bullshit.
- 3:46I'm getting it. I'm getting a PlayStation 4 and
- 3:49there's a game that I want to play.
- 3:50That's only for the PS5. Kind of nonsense.
- 3:53Bullshit. Is this, we'll hear something
- 3:55cool though. So God of War Ragnarok is going
- 4:01to also be on the PS4. I've heard that's sweet.
- 4:05I'm excited to be able to actually play the new God of War
- 4:07games. Now that I'll have a, I'll have
- 4:09your old PlayStation. Yeah, I mean, and honestly, I do
- 4:13think that the last God of War that came out was in 2016.
- 4:17I want to say, maybe you, so, I think it's 2016.
- 4:22Damn. I'm 17.
- 4:24Let's I don't know. We now look it up.
- 4:26I'll look it up. We need a super producer.
- 4:28What I'm saying. Is this, it ran great on the
- 4:30PS4. Unlike ghost tsushima, which is
- 4:34a game. I did enjoy.
- 4:36I just don't think if you don't have a PS4 Pro, it's a bit of a
- 4:40difficult game to play in certain areas of the combat
- 4:43system. It's can be kind of a pain in
- 4:46the ass, which is a bummer because go tsushima is a
- 4:49wonderful and beautiful game. So we were wrong.
- 4:55It was 2018. Okay, two years off.
- 4:58We are Gamers, we make mistakes. So we saw, that's unacceptable
- 5:02unacceptable. We're not allowed to make
- 5:04mistakes. Also, they're, they're putting
- 5:06out a new game. It's, it's been three years.
- 5:09There have been busting. Our asses was what it sounds
- 5:11like to me. Yeah.
- 5:12That I think they have this shit ready to go.
- 5:14It looks beautiful, though. The trailer look great.
- 5:16There was a big stick. It was a nice mix of gameplay
- 5:19and cinematic trailer. So it looks good.
- 5:23That's that's nice. It's always nice to see actual
- 5:25gameplay in trailers. I feel like that's a, that's a
- 5:28trend. We don't we don't get too often
- 5:29anymore. You're just guessing like, how's
- 5:32it going to be exactly? So that's going to be sweet.
- 5:36I think and I know you just said your side to play God of War now
- 5:40on the PS4. Yes, so and then I can hopefully
- 5:43play God of War Ragnarok as well.
- 5:45That'll be dope. Let's see.
- 5:48There's a new Wolverine game by the guys who do, who did
- 5:51Spider-Man and there's a new Spider-Man game.
- 5:54So that's pretty cool. You have the trailer for
- 5:56Spider-Man 2. Looks interesting to me that
- 5:59looks like it's going to have a bit of a co-op system to it
- 6:02because you could see both Peter Parker and As Morales.
- 6:06That's pretty sweet Heather. So I'm kind of thinking it'd be
- 6:09cool. If you could do a two player
- 6:11online. Co-op one is Miles Morales.
- 6:13One is Peter Parker. I think that'd be pretty cool to
- 6:17swing through New York together. They can be a lot of fun.
- 6:20Oh, yeah, the main villain in this series is going to be Venom
- 6:27nice. So that's sweet.
- 6:28Speaking of did you see the new? Then I'm trailer for the second
- 6:34one with Carnage. Yeah, I saw that trailer and it
- 6:37looks glorious. I do.
- 6:39Wish given Carnage as a character and given the subject
- 6:44material that it would have been an R rating.
- 6:47I'm hearing it's a PG-13 still I think they could still do a lot
- 6:50with that, they can top but it doesn't have to be rated R.
- 6:55That's been a very strong argument of mine for a while.
- 6:58No, I understand that. There's certain movies in my
- 7:00opinion, like blade. Like if they were to make a
- 7:02blade film and it was to be PG-13.
- 7:05I really think you'd be taking like I'm not saying a movie need
- 7:09score to make it a point to make it that special or make it that
- 7:13much better. But for like the subject matter
- 7:16in Blade, I think an R rating is appropriate now for Spider-Man
- 7:21Venom Carnage. You can go over the piece of 13,
- 7:24I think but to add in that extra bit of flare or Just that extra
- 7:29Panache to it. You know I'm saying an R rating
- 7:32would be beneficial but I think it's still going to be fine
- 7:35PG-13, right? Yeah, if they'll do a wider
- 7:39Market, you know, they want to get everybody.
- 7:41They can to see that movie because Venom's to was not a bad
- 7:45film, but it didn't do well, you need a better one Venom one.
- 7:51Yes, the, the last I was like, I was like, this is the third one.
- 7:54What the fuck? Huh?
- 7:55The first Venom film. It wasn't bad.
- 7:57But it also Didn't do that. Great in the box office either.
- 8:00I don't think so. They're gonna probably want
- 8:02everyone to come back around. Like, oh, shit.
- 8:04Look, it's Carnage and Venom. So and then everybody, you can
- 8:07bring your kids to see it, you know?
- 8:08Right back to games. Yeah.
- 8:13Rainbow Six extraction. It's all looks kind of cool.
- 8:16I guess I'm not super but I got plenty of those survival Co-op
- 8:20shooters that like, I don't play and no one ever wants to play
- 8:24with me like GTFO, still have not played that everyone keeps.
- 8:28Helical wheel download download it so we can play it and then
- 8:30they never do. I don't own it.
- 8:32I wanna get it but I don't know what it I bought it specifically
- 8:35so I could try to play and I still have not, I've never even
- 8:37launched. I've never hunt Showdown honcho
- 8:40down. Looks sweet.
- 8:41It always as is just everybody is playing it now too.
- 8:44So it's like fuck. Do I do I now get into this game
- 8:47like past all these playing it? I mean, General Sam's been
- 8:51playing it. So I don't know.
- 8:55I don't know. Uncharted Legacy of fear.
- 8:58Thieves, so that's cool. And that's going to PC as well.
- 9:02What does that is? That just like a whole fuckin
- 9:04remaster of the the entire series?
- 9:06I don't believe. So, or is that a new Uncharted
- 9:09game? Now, like the sea, let's see use
- 9:13collection of collection. I'm looking up right now because
- 9:20I was unsure, what? It could be or what charted for
- 9:23and Lost Legacy will be remastered for PS5 and PC.
- 9:28So I'm more interested in the PS or the PC remaster.
- 9:34Because that shows that Sony is every time they're putting a
- 9:37game on PC. It is doing well.
- 9:39It's Janice just doing going. It's just so much better for us.
- 9:42PC players do it is, it's getting me getting that much
- 9:45better. We have every X we won the
- 9:47council. I just want to really did, we
- 9:50have every Xbox game and now we're starting to get all of the
- 9:53Sona games. Although I don't think we'll
- 9:55ever get any Nintendo games. No.
- 9:58No, they're never going to, even though I think if they were put
- 10:00breath of the Wild on PC, they would fucking if they would make
- 10:03so much money. I literally want to buy a switch
- 10:05like almost exclusively for breath of the wild.
- 10:08I will let you borrow mine. I'll bring that over Sunday to
- 10:10you could borrow my switch. I haven't touched it in months.
- 10:13Yeah, we all right. Let's keep your got you I got
- 10:17you so that looks that's pretty neat though.
- 10:21I'm really stoked to see Sony do things like that.
- 10:25Yeah. Same with with death Loop.
- 10:29Yeah, dude, so Legend, which actually just it actually just
- 10:33released to Evans been playing it.
- 10:35He's in play. He likes it so far.
- 10:37It looks good. I think watching it via Discord
- 10:40isn't giving it justice though. Like I like watch and play on.
- 10:44My go looks okay, but it's like, oh, I'm literally just watching
- 10:47it through Discord. So it's not up to like, how it's
- 10:51going to actually look. Once I'm actually playing right,
- 10:54how it's going to look how it feels things like that.
- 10:56But yeah, so Yeah, I mean, you know, it looks cool.
- 11:01It definitely has the same Dishonored formula up to its
- 11:04gameplay, but just like a different storyline to it.
- 11:07It seems like so, I mean if you're a fan of Dishonored,
- 11:10you'll like death loop, I ever got super into dishonoured.
- 11:14Yeah, that there were there were, there were fun, but then
- 11:17like I just lost its Flair to me quickly, but I figured well,
- 11:22that's kind of how I was with it.
- 11:23I was like, that's cool. But, you know, I don't see
- 11:27anything about for sale for Getting either, I didn't see
- 11:30what that was or spoken is a pretty cool looking game.
- 11:34You have to look it up. It's kind of hard to explain but
- 11:38it does look me like, a lot of like physics.
- 11:40And yeah, I'm looking at. Oh, yeah, like water bottles and
- 11:43all details. And like, use of the environment
- 11:47itself. It looks really cool.
- 11:48Actually. Yeah.
- 11:49This is looking pretty cool. Okay, folks, around this is
- 11:52unreal 5 as well, that's not surprising.
- 11:55No. It's a beast of an engine.
- 11:57Yeah, the fact that there's I love Unreal Engine 5 and more.
- 12:02So for like visual effects and things, you're able to do with
- 12:04that now for like Cinema will place in a month.
- 12:07Like I'm from 1919. Let's go on down to the cinema.
- 12:11Hey, Sorry, you're ridiculous. They gave unreal 5 out.
- 12:16Like, I have it on my PC Justice.
- 12:18I played that demo game. They really sounds like it's
- 12:20pretty cool. Is there any other game on this
- 12:23list that you care to speak about?
- 12:24Before we go into our last two topics?
- 12:27Not really to be honest. Okay, GTA 5.
- 12:33I don't even want to hear that. Anyway, I don't care.
- 12:35She ate 5 DLC because why give you another game.
- 12:40When we can, just give you more of the same game for the last
- 12:43seven years, there were estimates, they're working on
- 12:47it. Anyways, so that's that's,
- 12:51that's a bit of the Shoni. So case Sonia showcase Shoni
- 12:55Tony. Okay, we talked about this on
- 12:57Diggity. So if you want to hear more
- 12:59about we all except for math, because he was busy that day.
- 13:03Had to say Evan myself at Brody. You can hop over the Diggity
- 13:07podcast and listen to that. Battlefield has been delayed by
- 13:11a month. Oh my God, not shocked.
- 13:16But a month means that they are fine-tuning that whole.
- 13:21Okay. Well, hold on.
- 13:22Hold on. Because we've been we've been
- 13:24getting that before with like fucking cyberpunk and I don't
- 13:30think like even like no man's sky and stuff like that.
- 13:32You know, it's it's, I don't think it's quite that.
- 13:37But I'm just saying, like, a month.
- 13:39No longer means like, oh, yeah, they just got some bugs to work
- 13:42out real quick. I could just be like, this is
- 13:44the farthest. We are physically able to push
- 13:46this game back. That is the under like
- 13:49underlying deadline at that time.
- 13:52It gets shipped out whatever state.
- 13:54Yeah, you know, it could be. It could be one of those
- 13:56scenarios. So now I'm worried sick.
- 13:59I'm optimistic. But yeah, I'm cautiously
- 14:01optimistic, though. Yeah.
- 14:02I'm not fucking pre-ordering it. That's for sure.
- 14:05No, I'll see you. I'll see how it launches.
- 14:07I'll give it a week in the launch before I buy.
- 14:10Yeah, we've I am gonna buy this game regardless eventually. and
- 14:13a little buddy is if it's living up to like If it was up to like
- 14:20half of my expectations, I think I'd be happy with it.
- 14:23Yeah. Yeah.
- 14:24Yeah. I mean, I like V, right?
- 14:27V or Battlefield one. I did not care for either of
- 14:29those. And while they may not have One
- 14:33didn't like run terribly. I just wasn't a fan of like the
- 14:37Shot like, you know, World War One area and stuff like that.
- 14:40But Battlefield 5 was definitely quite a blunder.
- 14:45Yeah, that's, that's saying it lightly as well, in my opinion.
- 14:48Yeah. Yeah.
- 14:50So that's Battlefield 5, it's been delayed, death Loop is also
- 14:54out. This is a game.
- 14:56I'm going to wait on I believe, I don't know.
- 14:59Man. It looks cool.
- 15:00We were talking a minute ago. It does just look like another
- 15:02Dishonored, right? Because there are being, there
- 15:05are reused assets. Looks like there's reused
- 15:09animations. It's sort of like it's sort of
- 15:12like from software with, you know, Dark, Souls Dark, Souls,
- 15:16Dark Souls, you know, and then here's blood-borne where you're
- 15:20like, it's basically the same thing and then now like, you
- 15:23know, second row, Shadow Steed called something, right?
- 15:26Yeah. It's all basically like, hey,
- 15:28it's the same formula just in a different setting and you're
- 15:30just like, all right, cool. Thanks.
- 15:32So here's my question, because a lot of people sometimes myself
- 15:35included, when they see. See, something like this and
- 15:38it's not. I want to keep.
- 15:40I want to keep from in this conversation though.
- 15:42Specifically. I want to keep them in the
- 15:44conversation. When you see a company do
- 15:47something like this, where they have a game like this honored
- 15:50and dishonor to, which did very well, both games to very
- 15:53fucking. Well, they have huge dedicated
- 15:55fan base, has who still play Evan and John will repeatedly
- 15:59Speed Run the game together and it's it is cool to watch.
- 16:03When they do something like this where they release a game, like
- 16:05death Loop and it's noticeable. People get irritated.
- 16:09Like what the fuck was that? You want to put more time in to
- 16:12do something new. But when from does it with Dark
- 16:15Souls demon, souls Dark Souls, Dark Souls 2, 3 blood-borne when
- 16:19born yeah second row. It's a crow kind of changed up
- 16:23here and there but whatever. I mean, it's still the same
- 16:25basic its gameplay Loop rifles game and then L didn'r Elden
- 16:30ring is going to be different though.
- 16:31I from what I could see. But when they do it is fine,
- 16:35rinse, repeat. That's what you're good at.
- 16:37So like my question is, why is it?
- 16:39Okay when one company does it? And not another company, right?
- 16:44Like it kind of seems and I'm hypocritical on this aspect too
- 16:47because I like I said, when I first saw that the balls like
- 16:49looks like this honored, I don't care, right?
- 16:51Got lazy. Well, yeah, them being lazy.
- 16:54No, it's works. Right.
- 16:56Exactly. I mean, that's, that's a fucking
- 16:58that's the entire thing in the industry right now.
- 17:00You have all of these just like yearly every year.
- 17:05That's this Creed. Fucking.
- 17:07You had your Call of Duty's, your, your initial battlefields.
- 17:12Your what else is there? Don't even get me started on
- 17:16sports game. Well, like I don't I don't quite
- 17:20yet problem with it. Yeah, you know, I I definitely
- 17:26understand the argument of like give us something new but
- 17:29honestly, it's not that it's not the end of the world.
- 17:31If it's a good game and you're like, hey, this works for our
- 17:34fan base. We're just going to keep making
- 17:35games for our fan base. Like this.
- 17:37That's totally fine. Here's the thing between death
- 17:40Loop, you know, and who's the fucking company that does it the
- 17:45the developers of death loot death, Loop and Dishonored and
- 17:49stuff like that. Well, the thing between them I'm
- 17:53actually going to so it's Arcane.
- 17:55Okay, so between Arcane and from software, I'm okay with them
- 18:00doing something like it compared to Ubisoft or Battlefield or
- 18:05Call of Duty when it comes to like Assassin's Creed.
- 18:08And, you know, those other games with like at least from software
- 18:14and arcane's games work, and they are polished when they
- 18:17release, you know, there's few bugs.
- 18:20You're not going to get all bugs, but there's few bugs.
- 18:23You know, it runs. Well, it's compelling story.
- 18:26You can say it would be worth your money, especially if you're
- 18:29into that style of game versus something like Assassin's Creed,
- 18:33where they rinse and repeat every year.
- 18:35And every year, the game gets fucking worse and worse and more
- 18:38buggy and glitchy unplayable, time.
- 18:40And they're your bright. Exactly.
- 18:43So, I think for me, it's more of a case by case scenario where, I
- 18:47think it's okay for from software and our came to do
- 18:51stuff like that. Because, at least I put the the
- 18:53time, Attention into making sure that it is at least slightly
- 18:56improved over the last Games model, adding new stuff to a new
- 19:00content, different content, things like that compared to
- 19:04stripping your content for leasing it, even earlier on
- 19:07buggy, you know, unfinished buggy lack of fucking real
- 19:12gameplay to so you can make more money.
- 19:15That's not to say that these games don't come out with bugs
- 19:18or glitches or problems because I do Dark Souls is, you know, it
- 19:22will come out with like huge issues and even bleats, even not
- 19:27fucking buggy that game is stupid when it comes to like
- 19:30Blighttown and won't you could Dart like Darkness maps and shit
- 19:34like that. And what would the fucking areas
- 19:35called when dark salt, wouldn't Demon Souls release for PS5?
- 19:40There was an exploit where you can flip a golden coin.
- 19:44You can basically increase your, your luck stat to like, oh, you
- 19:48can. Yeah, you can do that in all my
- 19:49most games. Well, it's been it's been
- 19:52patched. But in that's like Demon Souls
- 19:56is. Yeah, I know, but like there's a
- 19:57weapon where it, there's a weapon that stats up with more
- 20:01luck. So, basically, your luck goes to
- 20:0410 million, your one, shotting everything.
- 20:07Yeah, but so, let's not say, is games while perfect but like, my
- 20:10main point on this because when we start wrapping up is these
- 20:14are these are these games. Like Styles, right?
- 20:18Like from makes that style of game, Arcane is making this
- 20:22style of game now. So it makes sense for these
- 20:24games to be similar, write what, you know, and you can see
- 20:28Activision, has their hands in a lot of different types of games.
- 20:32Blizzard has their hands in a lot.
- 20:33So, you know, to see companies like that, go and rinse, repeat,
- 20:37it's like, but you can't, you have the means, and you've done
