How are you guys doing today?
26
00:00:51,666 --> 00:00:52,166
Thanks for being here
27
00:00:52,166 --> 00:00:52,833
with me, by the way.
28
00:00:53,875 --> 00:00:54,416
Yeah, thanks.
29
00:00:54,416 --> 00:00:55,000
Good to be here.
30
00:00:55,250 --> 00:00:56,250
I'm glad to be back.
31
00:00:56,250 --> 00:00:57,416
I was sick last week.
32
00:00:58,333 --> 00:01:00,666
Yeah, I remember it was unfortunate.
33
00:01:01,625 --> 00:01:01,833
Yeah.
34
00:01:03,500 --> 00:01:04,500
I'm doing decent.
35
00:01:05,125 --> 00:01:06,041
I'm knocking on wood.
36
00:01:06,041 --> 00:01:06,833
I haven't been sick much
37
00:01:06,833 --> 00:01:10,708
this year or this winter.
38
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:13,750
And it's refreshing.
39
00:01:15,041 --> 00:01:16,666
I totally feel Gardener on that.
40
00:01:17,291 --> 00:01:18,291
Yeah, I'm still kind
41
00:01:18,291 --> 00:01:19,250
of recovering myself.
42
00:01:19,500 --> 00:01:23,375
I was a, I like got super, like I was
43
00:01:23,375 --> 00:01:24,875
kind of feeling kind of under the weather
44
00:01:25,083 --> 00:01:27,125
when we last recorded and then like right
45
00:01:27,125 --> 00:01:28,500
after we recorded, I
46
00:01:28,500 --> 00:01:30,041
got like really sick.
47
00:01:30,416 --> 00:01:32,000
So get the recording.
48
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:32,625
We did.
49
00:01:34,250 --> 00:01:34,708
So what have you guys
50
00:01:34,708 --> 00:01:35,250
been playing though?
51
00:01:35,666 --> 00:01:36,500
James, what are you doing playing?
52
00:01:37,583 --> 00:01:39,208
I've been playing the copium game.
53
00:01:39,750 --> 00:01:42,500
I've been playing it so hard since, uh,
54
00:01:42,666 --> 00:01:43,708
and we'll, we're going to talk about this
55
00:01:43,708 --> 00:01:46,208
topic, but the hint of some maybe
56
00:01:46,208 --> 00:01:47,625
half-life news coming this year.
57
00:01:47,916 --> 00:01:49,083
I mean, a lot of people
58
00:01:49,083 --> 00:01:49,875
are saying half-life three.
59
00:01:50,166 --> 00:01:52,125
I'm still skeptical on that, but I am
60
00:01:52,125 --> 00:01:53,291
playing that copium.
61
00:01:53,291 --> 00:01:54,041
Honestly, that's what I
62
00:01:54,041 --> 00:01:54,625
spent this week doing.
63
00:01:54,666 --> 00:01:56,166
I was doing like deep dives into some of
64
00:01:56,166 --> 00:01:58,958
the stuff and doing a video beyond that.
65
00:01:59,541 --> 00:02:01,458
Uh, Indiana Jones, that's it.
66
00:02:01,458 --> 00:02:01,750
That's it.
67
00:02:02,208 --> 00:02:02,916
Those are the, those are
68
00:02:02,916 --> 00:02:03,708
the games I've been playing.
69
00:02:04,958 --> 00:02:06,250
How about you, Gardener?
70
00:02:07,083 --> 00:02:07,541
Oh man.
71
00:02:07,541 --> 00:02:09,416
I have been playing dome keeper.
72
00:02:09,416 --> 00:02:10,541
Have you guys heard about this?
73
00:02:11,791 --> 00:02:15,083
I think I have, but I haven't played it.
74
00:02:15,666 --> 00:02:16,375
I haven't played it either.
75
00:02:16,875 --> 00:02:18,458
Dome keeper is like,
76
00:02:18,458 --> 00:02:20,375
uh, if you took like Mr.
77
00:02:20,583 --> 00:02:23,291
Driller and dig dug and then put it into
78
00:02:23,291 --> 00:02:27,166
like a, uh, like a sci-fi rogue like, um,
79
00:02:27,166 --> 00:02:29,250
where it's also sort of, uh, you have to
80
00:02:29,250 --> 00:02:30,541
like defend your dome
81
00:02:30,541 --> 00:02:33,375
from, uh, from these
82
00:02:33,375 --> 00:02:35,416
like monsters, like these waves of
83
00:02:35,416 --> 00:02:37,000
monsters that come in and
84
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,250
you have to like dig down
85
00:02:38,333 --> 00:02:41,000
underneath your dome, find resources, and
86
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,541
then use those resources to upgrade your
87
00:02:43,541 --> 00:02:46,291
weapons, your jet pack, all your, all the
88
00:02:46,291 --> 00:02:48,291
different things, dude, it is one of the
89
00:02:48,291 --> 00:02:50,208
most addictive games I have ever played.
90
00:02:50,250 --> 00:02:52,250
I have literally, I've been sick, so
91
00:02:52,250 --> 00:02:54,208
that's been helpful to like, just invest
92
00:02:54,333 --> 00:02:57,625
time into a game, but like, I could not
93
00:02:57,625 --> 00:02:58,791
have found this game at a better time
94
00:02:58,791 --> 00:03:01,750
because I've literally put like dozens of
95
00:03:01,750 --> 00:03:03,291
hours into it in the last week.
96
00:03:03,958 --> 00:03:06,791
Um, it is so much fun.
97
00:03:07,125 --> 00:03:08,500
And it's, it sounds fun.
98
00:03:08,500 --> 00:03:09,125
I'll have to check it out.
99
00:03:09,500 --> 00:03:09,708
Yeah.
100
00:03:09,708 --> 00:03:10,125
Same here.
101
00:03:10,541 --> 00:03:12,791
After me, I've been
102
00:03:12,791 --> 00:03:14,000
grinding the shadow blotch.
103
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,541
I've been trying to a hundred percent.
104
00:03:16,500 --> 00:03:16,791
Nice.
105
00:03:17,291 --> 00:03:19,208
And can you a hundred percent that?
106
00:03:19,500 --> 00:03:20,125
You can.
107
00:03:20,625 --> 00:03:22,041
I thought that game, you beat it by
108
00:03:22,041 --> 00:03:23,000
crashing it like Tetris.
109
00:03:23,750 --> 00:03:26,208
Well, yeah, that's technically the way
110
00:03:26,208 --> 00:03:27,583
you like quote unquote beat.
111
00:03:27,833 --> 00:03:29,000
I mean, you beat the game by reaching
112
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,791
anti eight and beating that.
113
00:03:31,375 --> 00:03:33,750
And then you also like really beat the
114
00:03:33,750 --> 00:03:36,625
game when you reach anti 39 and like,
115
00:03:36,625 --> 00:03:38,833
uh, you start getting a, not a number of
116
00:03:38,833 --> 00:03:41,416
issues, but not a number.
117
00:03:41,708 --> 00:03:42,291
That's awesome.
118
00:03:42,291 --> 00:03:42,500
Yeah.
119
00:03:42,500 --> 00:03:44,333
So basically, is that like a real thing
120
00:03:44,333 --> 00:03:46,250
or is that like the, the program
121
00:03:46,666 --> 00:03:48,125
actually hitting the not a number?
122
00:03:48,416 --> 00:03:48,750
Yeah.
123
00:03:48,750 --> 00:03:50,416
It's the like, so the score requirement
124
00:03:50,416 --> 00:03:54,000
hits not a number, nan, if you will.
125
00:03:54,250 --> 00:03:57,125
And then, uh, and then, uh, what happens
126
00:03:57,125 --> 00:03:59,458
afterwards is that, uh, you can reach
127
00:03:59,833 --> 00:04:02,125
not, you can reach NAN infinite if you
128
00:04:02,125 --> 00:04:05,250
have the right build, but it's not,
129
00:04:05,250 --> 00:04:06,333
also, it's also not a number.
130
00:04:06,625 --> 00:04:07,916
So it just doesn't work.
131
00:04:08,875 --> 00:04:10,250
Is it, what are they,
132
00:04:10,250 --> 00:04:12,250
what is Bellatra written in?
133
00:04:12,416 --> 00:04:12,625
Lua.
134
00:04:13,208 --> 00:04:13,416
Lua.
135
00:04:14,208 --> 00:04:17,291
Oh, it's written in Lua.
136
00:04:18,500 --> 00:04:18,666
Huh.
137
00:04:19,541 --> 00:04:19,750
Interesting.
138
00:04:20,333 --> 00:04:20,583
Yeah.
139
00:04:20,583 --> 00:04:21,458
There's like not a number,
140
00:04:21,458 --> 00:04:23,291
uh, error and stuff like that.
141
00:04:23,291 --> 00:04:25,500
Or parsing is different
142
00:04:25,500 --> 00:04:26,291
in different languages.
143
00:04:26,583 --> 00:04:27,208
So you don't need to
144
00:04:27,208 --> 00:04:28,500
dive into that boring stuff.
145
00:04:28,583 --> 00:04:28,958
Yeah.
146
00:04:29,166 --> 00:04:29,375
Yeah.
147
00:04:29,541 --> 00:04:31,583
So the way you, the way you're supposed
148
00:04:31,583 --> 00:04:34,250
to 100% as per the achievements is you're
149
00:04:34,250 --> 00:04:35,791
supposed to be the gold stake, the
150
00:04:35,791 --> 00:04:36,416
highest difficulty
151
00:04:36,416 --> 00:04:37,750
with every single deck.
152
00:04:38,958 --> 00:04:41,083
And then get a gold sticker with every
153
00:04:41,083 --> 00:04:43,250
single, uh, joker in the game.
154
00:04:45,333 --> 00:04:47,791
So you need to take like every single
155
00:04:47,791 --> 00:04:50,166
joker in the game at some point and
156
00:04:50,166 --> 00:04:54,875
be gold stick with it, which is really
157
00:04:54,875 --> 00:04:56,250
difficult because some jokers are really
158
00:04:56,250 --> 00:04:58,916
bad, like the basic jokers, like it gives
159
00:04:58,916 --> 00:04:59,875
you plus four multiplier.
160
00:05:00,583 --> 00:05:00,750
Yeah.
161
00:05:01,041 --> 00:05:01,875
It was really bad.
162
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:03,666
That's interesting.
163
00:05:03,875 --> 00:05:04,000
Yeah.
164
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,875
It's the joker system on that.
165
00:05:05,875 --> 00:05:06,625
It's really cool.
166
00:05:06,625 --> 00:05:09,166
I like it, but I still don't think it's
167
00:05:09,166 --> 00:05:10,250
as hard as the game I'm playing.
168
00:05:10,916 --> 00:05:11,500
I don't think anything is as hard as the game I'm playing.
169
00:05:11,666 --> 00:05:15,083
Which is hoping for half-life three.
170
00:05:15,458 --> 00:05:16,500
Nothing ever will.
171
00:05:19,541 --> 00:05:22,250
How do you, how do you beat Copium?
172
00:05:23,625 --> 00:05:27,625
Uh, you dive down, make a video on it
173
00:05:27,625 --> 00:05:30,541
and, uh, pretend to not be crazy.
174
00:05:30,833 --> 00:05:31,875
That's, that's how it is.
175
00:05:31,875 --> 00:05:32,500
That's how you beat it.
176
00:05:32,500 --> 00:05:34,000
It's just, as long as you're not in the,
177
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:35,708
like the, the crazy house or you end up
178
00:05:35,708 --> 00:05:37,750
going like insane, I
179
00:05:37,750 --> 00:05:38,291
think you're winning.
180
00:05:38,875 --> 00:05:39,041
Hmm.
181
00:05:39,333 --> 00:05:40,458
Well, I think the best way to beat Copium is to be like, you know,
182
00:05:40,500 --> 00:05:41,666
beat Copium is to
183
00:05:41,666 --> 00:05:42,625
look forward to tomorrow.
184
00:05:43,208 --> 00:05:45,416
The technology of tomorrow today.
185
00:05:46,041 --> 00:05:46,666
Seeing yes.
186
00:05:46,666 --> 00:05:48,666
2025 is around the corner.
187
00:05:49,541 --> 00:05:51,958
So James, I think we've talked about this
188
00:05:51,958 --> 00:05:53,833
a couple of times, but have you decided
189
00:05:53,833 --> 00:05:54,458
if you're going to see
190
00:05:54,458 --> 00:05:55,333
yes or not this year?
191
00:05:56,916 --> 00:05:59,125
So I was, I was eyeing over my retirement
192
00:05:59,125 --> 00:06:01,541
fund thinking maybe I should, uh,
193
00:06:01,541 --> 00:06:02,500
cash some of this to
194
00:06:02,500 --> 00:06:04,666
go and I'll be honest.
195
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,166
I was, I was, I was close at times, not
196
00:06:07,166 --> 00:06:08,125
the cash little thing, of course,
197
00:06:08,125 --> 00:06:09,041
but cash a little bit.
198
00:06:10,666 --> 00:06:12,291
Because, you know, Christmas just
199
00:06:12,291 --> 00:06:13,541
happened, paid for a
200
00:06:13,541 --> 00:06:14,916
bunch of stuff, got a
201
00:06:14,916 --> 00:06:16,916
bunch of new things, didn't have the
202
00:06:16,916 --> 00:06:18,208
budget at this point
203
00:06:18,208 --> 00:06:21,041
to go, but I, so close.
204
00:06:21,833 --> 00:06:23,625
If I was really thinking it through,
205
00:06:23,916 --> 00:06:26,000
maybe like, if I did this way earlier, I
206
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,291
could have gone like, cause it would have
207
00:06:28,291 --> 00:06:29,583
been better prices for hotel and
208
00:06:29,583 --> 00:06:30,500
everything, everything's like
209
00:06:30,500 --> 00:06:34,250
500 plus a night in that area.
210
00:06:34,916 --> 00:06:35,083
Yeah.
211
00:06:35,166 --> 00:06:36,041
So it's yeah.
212
00:06:36,083 --> 00:06:38,250
So for those who don't know, um, see,
213
00:06:38,250 --> 00:06:40,750
yes, is a trade show where a lot of tech
214
00:06:40,750 --> 00:06:42,791
companies come together, they show off
215
00:06:42,791 --> 00:06:44,541
their latest gadgets and other
216
00:06:44,541 --> 00:06:45,500
technologies and whatnot.
217
00:06:46,083 --> 00:06:48,000
And, you know, sometimes companies come
218
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,750
in with extremely prototyped prototypes.
219
00:06:51,833 --> 00:06:54,666
Hopefully you get some investors and it's
220
00:06:54,666 --> 00:06:55,500
not explicitly gaming.
221
00:06:55,916 --> 00:06:57,208
Like there's a lot of companies that do
222
00:06:57,208 --> 00:06:59,083
things on gaming, like robots and shit.
223
00:06:59,875 --> 00:07:00,666
Robots are pretty cool.
224
00:07:02,250 --> 00:07:02,583
Oh yeah.
225
00:07:02,875 --> 00:07:04,791
I think a good way to think of it is
226
00:07:04,791 --> 00:07:07,458
like, um, the game awards and some of the
227
00:07:07,458 --> 00:07:10,375
other like E3 is for what games are, that
228
00:07:10,375 --> 00:07:11,708
is what this is like, this is for
229
00:07:11,708 --> 00:07:14,666
hardware, this is for technology, but it
230
00:07:14,666 --> 00:07:16,375
can incorporate, you just wouldn't see
231
00:07:16,375 --> 00:07:18,416
like a game announced at this unless
232
00:07:18,416 --> 00:07:20,333
valve really wants to be, unless valve
233
00:07:20,333 --> 00:07:21,958
really wants to be controversial, which I
234
00:07:21,958 --> 00:07:23,375
am all for them being controversial.
235
00:07:23,958 --> 00:07:27,041
But, uh, usually there's a lot of stuff
236
00:07:27,041 --> 00:07:30,250
that's like, for example, Alienware,
237
00:07:30,291 --> 00:07:33,416
one of the first, in my opinion, the
238
00:07:33,416 --> 00:07:36,458
first like actual realized decent
239
00:07:36,500 --> 00:07:39,250
designed, uh, handheld gaming device that
240
00:07:39,250 --> 00:07:41,166
they never released was the, uh,
241
00:07:41,166 --> 00:07:43,416
Alienware UFO was unveiled
242
00:07:43,416 --> 00:07:47,458
at, um, at a CES like years ago.
243
00:07:47,958 --> 00:07:49,583
And so oftentimes that's another thing
244
00:07:49,583 --> 00:07:50,750
that's a little disappointing about E3
245
00:07:50,750 --> 00:07:52,125
is that you'll see a lot of cool things
246
00:07:52,125 --> 00:07:53,375
that never come to light.
247
00:07:53,750 --> 00:07:55,916
Cause it's also a, it's for journalists
248
00:07:55,916 --> 00:07:58,083
to come and like test the waters, right?
249
00:07:58,166 --> 00:08:00,041
Or not for journalists, but for the
250
00:08:00,041 --> 00:08:01,166
companies to come and test the
251
00:08:01,166 --> 00:08:02,541
waters with journals that is so.
252
00:08:03,833 --> 00:08:04,041
Yeah.
253
00:08:04,625 --> 00:08:07,000
So who do we know is coming to CES?
254
00:08:07,333 --> 00:08:09,250
We know of course Lenovo is coming to CES
255
00:08:09,250 --> 00:08:12,375
supposedly with valve, but word
256
00:08:12,375 --> 00:08:13,916
also has it this kind of bleeding to the
257
00:08:13,916 --> 00:08:16,375
next topic valve themselves may be
258
00:08:16,375 --> 00:08:18,333
preparing something big there too.
259
00:08:19,333 --> 00:08:21,125
As per sadly, it's Bradley is a tweet.
260
00:08:21,791 --> 00:08:22,750
So let's just make
261
00:08:22,750 --> 00:08:24,541
this one mega CES topic.
262
00:08:25,125 --> 00:08:25,666
Let's do it.
263
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:26,083
Yeah.
264
00:08:26,208 --> 00:08:28,458
So from what I can see here, it looks
265
00:08:28,458 --> 00:08:30,375
like they're setting up different
266
00:08:30,500 --> 00:08:33,250
startup variants, like different startup
267
00:08:33,250 --> 00:08:34,625
movie variants, you know, like this,
268
00:08:34,625 --> 00:08:35,958
the steam deck boot screen.
269
00:08:36,666 --> 00:08:36,875
Yeah.
270
00:08:37,500 --> 00:08:38,833
I don't really know
271
00:08:38,833 --> 00:08:41,708
what this is all about.
272
00:08:42,833 --> 00:08:45,250
To me, I'm looking at the, the sadly it's
273
00:08:45,250 --> 00:08:47,958
Bradley, uh, diff here.
274
00:08:48,291 --> 00:08:50,625
And it looks like they're renaming the,
275
00:08:50,625 --> 00:08:53,833
uh, the startup movies or the, the
276
00:08:53,875 --> 00:08:55,208
emails for the startup movies.
277
00:08:55,791 --> 00:08:57,541
And, uh, essentially it looks like the
278
00:08:57,541 --> 00:09:00,416
default is going to be for like
279
00:09:00,625 --> 00:09:03,291
OEM, uh, steam OS installs.
280
00:09:03,833 --> 00:09:06,375
And then the deck blue and deck orange
281
00:09:06,375 --> 00:09:09,083
are going to be, um, for
282
00:09:09,083 --> 00:09:11,583
the LCD and LED models.
283
00:09:12,375 --> 00:09:12,666
Um,
284
00:09:14,041 --> 00:09:15,458
uh, I'm just curious
285
00:09:15,458 --> 00:09:17,208
why this matters so much.
286
00:09:17,208 --> 00:09:19,083
I really wish that they would for
287
00:09:19,083 --> 00:09:21,375
developers like me, I'd love some like
288
00:09:21,875 --> 00:09:24,000
behind the scenes explanations on some of
289
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,500
these, uh, diffs because like there's
290
00:09:27,500 --> 00:09:29,416
an invalid state, what does that mean?
291
00:09:29,416 --> 00:09:30,041
Why, why not just play
292
00:09:30,041 --> 00:09:31,458
these are startup movies?
293
00:09:31,458 --> 00:09:32,416
Like, why not just play it?
294
00:09:32,416 --> 00:09:33,375
It might not look perfect.
295
00:09:33,541 --> 00:09:36,666
So I'm assuming like screen ratios and
296
00:09:36,666 --> 00:09:37,250
stuff like that kind
297
00:09:37,250 --> 00:09:37,958
of come up with a play.
298
00:09:37,958 --> 00:09:38,250
Right.
299
00:09:38,833 --> 00:09:40,916
I'm going to guess that the invalid is
300
00:09:40,916 --> 00:09:44,875
going to be like the, the, um, this is
301
00:09:44,875 --> 00:09:46,250
just my guess, I have no idea, but I
302
00:09:46,250 --> 00:09:48,750
think the invalid is the startup movie
303
00:09:48,833 --> 00:09:52,208
when you launch big picture and then, um,
304
00:09:52,541 --> 00:09:54,625
generic is going to be like the generic
305
00:09:54,625 --> 00:09:56,833
steam OS boot up and then they're,
306
00:09:56,833 --> 00:09:58,666
they're branding their own hardware with,
307
00:09:58,916 --> 00:10:00,500
with the deck blue and
308
00:10:00,500 --> 00:10:02,666
deck orange startup movies.
309
00:10:02,791 --> 00:10:03,000
Yeah.
310
00:10:03,250 --> 00:10:04,291
That sounds like it makes sense.
311
00:10:04,875 --> 00:10:06,500
I mean, it's an enum, which means these
312
00:10:06,500 --> 00:10:08,458
are just like types that they use
313
00:10:08,458 --> 00:10:10,666
throughout the code, just as a, to give a
314
00:10:10,666 --> 00:10:11,916
little bit of context for this.
315
00:10:11,916 --> 00:10:13,000
So that's what enums are.
316
00:10:13,250 --> 00:10:15,583
They're just a way to control naming and,
317
00:10:15,583 --> 00:10:19,250
uh, and, and usually checks throughout
318
00:10:19,250 --> 00:10:22,458
the code so that this will be potentially
319
00:10:22,458 --> 00:10:24,291
exactly what you guys were talking about.
320
00:10:24,666 --> 00:10:26,625
Um, checking to see if it's big picture
321
00:10:26,625 --> 00:10:29,291
mode or maybe, maybe they'll be doing
322
00:10:29,291 --> 00:10:31,458
something special for some of the, uh,
323
00:10:31,458 --> 00:10:32,083
valve specific
324
00:10:32,083 --> 00:10:33,916
devices with startup movies
325
00:10:33,916 --> 00:10:34,291
and stuff.
326
00:10:34,500 --> 00:10:37,000
So, so I will say the startup movie
327
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,500
aspect ratios, they're all 16 by 10 as
328
00:10:39,541 --> 00:10:42,500
per usual, but of course we'll be seeing
329
00:10:42,500 --> 00:10:44,250
some 16, we'll probably be seeing some
330
00:10:44,250 --> 00:10:46,458
16 by nine devices running steam OS at
331
00:10:46,458 --> 00:10:47,625
some point, so they had to figure out
332
00:10:47,625 --> 00:10:48,500
what to do with that as well.
333
00:10:49,541 --> 00:10:49,833
Yeah.
334
00:10:50,666 --> 00:10:53,583
I think that's pretty simple, um, to
335
00:10:53,583 --> 00:10:55,416
support with the way that they do it.
336
00:10:55,583 --> 00:10:56,708
But yeah, I think it's
337
00:10:56,708 --> 00:10:59,625
still good for them to check it.
338
00:11:00,166 --> 00:11:00,458
Yeah.
339
00:11:01,083 --> 00:11:01,458
Yeah.
340
00:11:01,458 --> 00:11:03,541
I think the thing that they're doing with
341
00:11:03,541 --> 00:11:05,416
the different aspect ratios, and I
342
00:11:05,416 --> 00:11:07,000
could be wrong about this, but I believe
343
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,666
they're just doing like an object fit
344
00:11:09,333 --> 00:11:12,000
for the video player, um, which just
345
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,208
crops the top and the bottom.
346
00:11:14,333 --> 00:11:17,833
Um, but yeah, I mean, right now it's a,
347
00:11:17,833 --> 00:11:20,083
it's a, it's a black video on a black
348
00:11:20,125 --> 00:11:22,208
background for, for these generic
349
00:11:22,208 --> 00:11:23,416
bootloader videos anyway.
350
00:11:23,791 --> 00:11:25,250
So yeah.
351
00:11:26,458 --> 00:11:26,666
Fun.
352
00:11:26,958 --> 00:11:28,541
So did you guys ever, okay.
353
00:11:28,541 --> 00:11:30,500
I have to ask because this is, this was a
354
00:11:30,500 --> 00:11:32,666
fun part of the beginning of the steam
355
00:11:32,666 --> 00:11:35,000
deck era, did you guys ever do any of the
356
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,875
custom boot boot, uh, boot videos?
357
00:11:38,250 --> 00:11:38,583
I've done.
358
00:11:39,041 --> 00:11:40,875
I've done some too, but I've been a
359
00:11:40,875 --> 00:11:42,250
little lazy these days.
360
00:11:43,208 --> 00:11:43,833
They're, they're awesome.
361
00:11:44,166 --> 00:11:46,375
I, I have them a part of
362
00:11:46,375 --> 00:11:47,333
one of the software pieces.
363
00:11:47,541 --> 00:11:49,166
Like I build software for the deck.
364
00:11:49,416 --> 00:11:50,625
I just haven't released in a while.
365
00:11:51,041 --> 00:11:53,416
And so I'm revamping it, but I have like
366
00:11:53,416 --> 00:11:56,333
a hundred plus of these that you can
367
00:11:56,375 --> 00:11:58,083
install technically just through like
368
00:11:58,083 --> 00:12:00,625
clicking a button, but, uh, before I had
369
00:12:00,625 --> 00:12:01,916
a script that did it.
370
00:12:01,916 --> 00:12:04,833
And so the, the, the four times of them
371
00:12:04,833 --> 00:12:05,791
actually supporting it.
372
00:12:05,791 --> 00:12:07,958
So it was always, this is a
373
00:12:07,958 --> 00:12:10,083
fascinating stuff for me alone.
374
00:12:10,083 --> 00:12:11,791
It's just this, uh, variant stuff of
375
00:12:11,791 --> 00:12:14,750
like, why they're,
376
00:12:14,750 --> 00:12:15,958
they're changing all the
377
00:12:15,958 --> 00:12:18,208
stuff up and maybe there's some extra
378
00:12:18,208 --> 00:12:19,916
special stuff that they're working on.
379
00:12:20,833 --> 00:12:21,041
Yeah.
380
00:12:21,541 --> 00:12:22,958
To make those variants different.
381
00:12:22,958 --> 00:12:23,166
But yeah.
382
00:12:25,958 --> 00:12:26,125
Yeah.
383
00:12:26,333 --> 00:12:28,000
Oh, I'm curious what this other
384
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,250
screenshot is for, um, the steam UI movie
385
00:12:31,458 --> 00:12:34,416
steam OS suspend, uh, and steam was
386
00:12:34,416 --> 00:12:35,416
suspend from the robber.
387
00:12:37,083 --> 00:12:38,416
I'm curious what those are.
388
00:12:38,416 --> 00:12:39,000
Do you see those?
389
00:12:40,791 --> 00:12:44,791
So the suspicious, uh, steam was suspend
390
00:12:44,791 --> 00:12:48,125
from the robber must be less state
391
00:12:48,125 --> 00:12:48,958
that it gets into.
392
00:12:49,291 --> 00:12:51,500
So yeah, there's a, there's like
393
00:12:51,500 --> 00:12:53,708
animations or like movies that can, uh,
394
00:12:53,916 --> 00:12:55,583
uh, there's a startup, there's a suspend.
395
00:12:55,583 --> 00:12:57,708
So like when you press the button and the
396
00:12:57,708 --> 00:12:59,500
deck goes to sleep, you can actually play
397
00:12:59,500 --> 00:13:02,583
a movie, um, or play like a video.
398
00:13:03,125 --> 00:13:04,458
And I don't know why they call movies.
399
00:13:04,500 --> 00:13:07,291
It's a little weird, but yeah, it's like
400
00:13:07,291 --> 00:13:09,791
an animation or a video.
401
00:13:10,291 --> 00:13:12,541
And so the suspend with robber, I not
402
00:13:12,541 --> 00:13:14,166
100% sure what that even would
403
00:13:14,208 --> 00:13:15,666
entail, but I would assume it'd be a
404
00:13:15,666 --> 00:13:17,375
state that the suspend
405
00:13:17,375 --> 00:13:18,916
would probably get into.
406
00:13:18,916 --> 00:13:20,708
That was maybe weird for them.
407
00:13:21,333 --> 00:13:23,500
Um, speaking of boot animations, have you
408
00:13:23,500 --> 00:13:25,791
seen the new one for the, uh, the winter
409
00:13:25,791 --> 00:13:29,375
sale that just passed the one, the one
410
00:13:29,375 --> 00:13:31,500
featuring the steam, uh, the steam cat
411
00:13:31,500 --> 00:13:32,625
girl delivery girl?
412
00:13:33,500 --> 00:13:34,125
I have not.
413
00:13:35,333 --> 00:13:37,125
You should check it out.
414
00:13:37,125 --> 00:13:38,958
But anyways, uh, speaking of which the
415
00:13:38,958 --> 00:13:40,791
artist put out a note saying that that
416
00:13:40,791 --> 00:13:43,208
was her, uh, lat that it was a fun time.
417
00:13:43,208 --> 00:13:44,833
And unfortunately that was the last art
418
00:13:44,833 --> 00:13:47,375
she'll be doing for, uh, valve.
419
00:13:48,958 --> 00:13:50,958
That's unless unless they, uh, unless
420
00:13:50,958 --> 00:13:51,708
they contact her again
421
00:13:51,708 --> 00:13:52,416
or something like that.
422
00:13:52,416 --> 00:13:55,166
But they could, they could, but it sounds
423
00:13:55,166 --> 00:13:56,416
like the contract or at least
424
00:13:56,416 --> 00:13:58,166
like it's, it's, it's done for now.
425
00:13:58,708 --> 00:14:00,041
I think she did a great job.
426
00:14:00,416 --> 00:14:01,000
I think so too.
427
00:14:01,875 --> 00:14:02,000
Yeah.
428
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,125
I'd love to see more of it.
429
00:14:03,166 --> 00:14:04,583
I really liked that's one of the things I
430
00:14:04,583 --> 00:14:06,291
like about the steam cells as opposed
431
00:14:06,291 --> 00:14:08,750
to other places is that it just seemed
432
00:14:08,750 --> 00:14:10,625
like a fun, cozy place to be when you're
433
00:14:10,625 --> 00:14:12,416
buying stuff, it just, it felt fun.
434
00:14:12,625 --> 00:14:15,791
And I really appreciate that in today's
435
00:14:15,791 --> 00:14:18,291
world of like, try to make things as
436
00:14:18,291 --> 00:14:21,083
cheap as possible, and we're only looking
437
00:14:21,083 --> 00:14:22,833
for the cheapest price, but also making
438
00:14:23,625 --> 00:14:25,291
the seasonal fun sell.
439
00:14:25,291 --> 00:14:25,625
I don't know.
440
00:14:25,625 --> 00:14:26,375
I have, I find it fun.
441
00:14:26,958 --> 00:14:27,833
Maybe my brain's broken
442
00:14:27,833 --> 00:14:29,583
on that, but it's fun.
443
00:14:31,541 --> 00:14:31,875
Yeah.
444
00:14:32,166 --> 00:14:35,083
So, so back to CS, who else do you think
445
00:14:35,083 --> 00:14:36,000
is going to be there too?
446
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,208
Cause I know, uh, retro game core is
447
00:14:38,208 --> 00:14:39,083
definitely going to be there.
448
00:14:39,083 --> 00:14:39,916
We'll have asked him about
449
00:14:39,916 --> 00:14:41,583
what he saw at some point.
450
00:14:42,583 --> 00:14:44,500
So can I add a quick note
451
00:14:44,500 --> 00:14:45,666
with the throbber stuff?
452
00:14:46,291 --> 00:14:46,541
Yes.
453
00:14:47,041 --> 00:14:48,416
The robbers still is a loading icon.
454
00:14:48,583 --> 00:14:49,458
I never call it this,
455
00:14:49,458 --> 00:14:50,291
but it's a loading icon.
456
00:14:50,291 --> 00:14:51,541
So when you see it spinning,
457
00:14:52,166 --> 00:14:53,291
Oh, like when it's
458
00:14:53,291 --> 00:14:54,041
like building up a game.
459
00:14:54,708 --> 00:14:55,000
Yeah.
460
00:14:55,375 --> 00:14:55,541
Yeah.
461
00:14:56,291 --> 00:14:56,666
I see.
462
00:14:57,208 --> 00:14:57,500
I see.
463
00:14:58,291 --> 00:14:58,833
So yeah.
464
00:14:59,083 --> 00:15:01,666
And if you look above, there's also, um,
465
00:15:01,958 --> 00:15:03,750
above the additions here, there's also
466
00:15:03,833 --> 00:15:06,375
Oled suspend animation and Oled suspend
467
00:15:06,375 --> 00:15:08,208
animation from throbber.
468
00:15:08,500 --> 00:15:09,833
So I missed that when I asked the
469
00:15:09,833 --> 00:15:11,458
question, but so it looks like they just
470
00:15:11,458 --> 00:15:12,541
have like a generic steam
471
00:15:12,541 --> 00:15:13,708
OS one that they're adding.
472
00:15:14,083 --> 00:15:14,291
Yeah.
473
00:15:14,916 --> 00:15:17,250
Um, which kind of reinforces my belief
474
00:15:17,250 --> 00:15:19,166
that the generic is going to be just
475
00:15:19,166 --> 00:15:21,500
a steam OS boot up icon.
476
00:15:23,083 --> 00:15:23,333
Yeah.
477
00:15:23,333 --> 00:15:24,166
That makes sense.
478
00:15:24,166 --> 00:15:24,958
That makes a lot of sense.
479
00:15:25,458 --> 00:15:27,458
So, I mean, everything leads towards
480
00:15:27,458 --> 00:15:29,291
steam OS is coming for everything.
481
00:15:29,791 --> 00:15:30,916
Like they're releasing steam OS.
482
00:15:31,708 --> 00:15:31,916
Yeah.
483
00:15:34,875 --> 00:15:35,208
Yep.
484
00:15:35,541 --> 00:15:37,458
That, that'll be interesting.
485
00:15:37,750 --> 00:15:39,375
So like, yeah, with the CES stuff, like
486
00:15:39,375 --> 00:15:42,250
we, we know that there are like, there's
487
00:15:42,250 --> 00:15:44,000
good rumors that Lenovo is going to be
488
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,333
releasing something there with valve
489
00:15:46,500 --> 00:15:47,958
potentially being there and all that.
490
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,166
Do you think another handheld device
491
00:15:51,166 --> 00:15:54,000
could be revealed at CES and maybe turn
492
00:15:54,125 --> 00:15:56,291
the flip it around to where valve
493
00:15:56,291 --> 00:15:57,958
actually might like, I don't know if we
494
00:15:57,958 --> 00:15:59,333
can see if they actually have a booth,
495
00:15:59,333 --> 00:16:01,625
but if they had a booth where they
496
00:16:01,625 --> 00:16:02,625
partnered with a couple of different
497
00:16:02,625 --> 00:16:04,083
companies like Lenovo and actually
498
00:16:04,083 --> 00:16:04,875
that's where we're showcased.
499
00:16:06,416 --> 00:16:09,000
I can see maybe MSI being there.
500
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:10,791
Cause that's where they showcase the MSI
501
00:16:10,791 --> 00:16:13,708
claw at CES last year.
502
00:16:15,291 --> 00:16:18,416
And, uh, I know Nvidia is definitely
503
00:16:18,416 --> 00:16:19,916
going to be there because there's
504
00:16:19,916 --> 00:16:21,000
something around the corner,
505
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:21,875
which we'll talk about later.
506
00:16:22,250 --> 00:16:26,000
If they, if they did come out with, uh,
507
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,791
like if there was another company with
508
00:16:27,791 --> 00:16:30,125
steam OS hardware, it would be
509
00:16:30,125 --> 00:16:31,125
interesting to see if
510
00:16:31,125 --> 00:16:33,458
they debuted like support for
511
00:16:33,458 --> 00:16:36,666
anything other than AMD APUs, because
512
00:16:36,666 --> 00:16:40,333
right now, as far as I understand it, uh,
513
00:16:40,333 --> 00:16:43,958
they only support AMD, CPUs and GPUs on
514
00:16:43,958 --> 00:16:46,333
steam OS from my understanding.
515
00:16:47,666 --> 00:16:50,166
I definitely would not plan on them
516
00:16:50,166 --> 00:16:50,958
supporting anything because they're
517
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:55,833
been so, um, cautious on releasing steam
518
00:16:55,833 --> 00:16:58,958
OS, um, like the, the, the three version
519
00:16:59,041 --> 00:17:02,458
three, um, I feel like they're so
520
00:17:02,458 --> 00:17:03,916
cautious with that, that
521
00:17:03,916 --> 00:17:05,250
I'd be shocked if they've
522
00:17:05,250 --> 00:17:07,458
released it for anything beside, like if
523
00:17:07,458 --> 00:17:08,958
they, let's say they partnered up with
524
00:17:08,958 --> 00:17:10,458
Lenovo or MSI that did
525
00:17:10,458 --> 00:17:11,250
release it for Intel.
526
00:17:11,666 --> 00:17:14,833
I'm assuming AMD through this first
527
00:17:14,833 --> 00:17:17,625
portion and then I could see them support
528
00:17:17,833 --> 00:17:19,333
like Intel probably wouldn't be an easy
529
00:17:19,333 --> 00:17:20,625
or wouldn't be a hard one for them to
530
00:17:20,625 --> 00:17:24,750
support, but it's just because the AMD
531
00:17:24,750 --> 00:17:26,166
architectures are so similar.
532
00:17:27,250 --> 00:17:28,208
That's there.
533
00:17:28,208 --> 00:17:30,125
There should be no reason why steam OS
534
00:17:30,125 --> 00:17:31,208
shouldn't work on these other
535
00:17:31,208 --> 00:17:34,958
devices, like enough, as long as the
536
00:17:34,958 --> 00:17:39,250
drivers are installed, but I am curious.
537
00:17:39,625 --> 00:17:42,500
They also with these changes going on,
538
00:17:42,500 --> 00:17:44,125
these generic changes, could they also
539
00:17:44,416 --> 00:17:48,125
lend towards other rumors that valve is
540
00:17:48,125 --> 00:17:50,625
working with maybe other companies
541
00:17:50,625 --> 00:17:52,666
were working on their own hardware for a
542
00:17:52,666 --> 00:17:53,791
steam machine release?
543
00:17:53,916 --> 00:17:55,916
Like could this also translate over to a
544
00:17:55,916 --> 00:17:57,708
steam machine, not just a handheld?
545
00:17:58,500 --> 00:18:00,125
Yeah, I think, yeah, I
546
00:18:00,125 --> 00:18:01,291
think it's totally possible.
547
00:18:01,958 --> 00:18:06,250
Um, yeah, I would, I would imagine just
548
00:18:06,250 --> 00:18:09,041
because valve has special branding
549
00:18:09,208 --> 00:18:12,083
for the LCD and the OLED that they would
550
00:18:12,083 --> 00:18:14,833
also have some kind of special branding
551
00:18:14,875 --> 00:18:16,416
for Fremont, whatever
552
00:18:16,416 --> 00:18:17,500
that ends up being called.
553
00:18:18,375 --> 00:18:21,416
Um, but yeah, I mean, making this system,
554
00:18:22,208 --> 00:18:24,250
the boot up movies and whatever more
555
00:18:24,291 --> 00:18:27,125
robust and able to support so many
556
00:18:27,125 --> 00:18:29,875
variations, I think that it makes sense
557
00:18:29,875 --> 00:18:33,916
that they would, uh, Release Fremont and
558
00:18:33,916 --> 00:18:36,166
have it be its own branded thing.
559
00:18:36,500 --> 00:18:39,500
Do you think so in the future with these
560
00:18:39,500 --> 00:18:41,500
diffs, you think that like in these
561
00:18:41,583 --> 00:18:43,708
enums, you think we'd see a Fremont style
562
00:18:43,708 --> 00:18:46,958
label, like whatever gold or whatever.
563
00:18:46,958 --> 00:18:47,333
I don't know.
564
00:18:47,333 --> 00:18:49,250
I don't know why they do the naming
565
00:18:49,250 --> 00:18:52,166
convention they do, but so you'd probably
566
00:18:52,166 --> 00:18:53,625
say that's maybe just credit as maybe
567
00:18:53,625 --> 00:18:55,291
Fremont being announced at this and it's
568
00:18:55,291 --> 00:18:58,250
just more maybe could be a steam machine.
569
00:18:58,500 --> 00:19:00,750
Just it would be a third party, not like
570
00:19:00,750 --> 00:19:02,625
a Fremont because I think three months
571
00:19:03,083 --> 00:19:04,750
it's supposed to be first party, right?
572
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:06,708
Like valves on hardware.
573
00:19:06,708 --> 00:19:08,125
My, from my understanding valve is
574
00:19:08,125 --> 00:19:09,375
working with the same
575
00:19:09,375 --> 00:19:10,750
manufacturing partner that
576
00:19:10,750 --> 00:19:12,000
they did with the, uh, with
577
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:13,291
the steam deck for Fremont.
578
00:19:13,958 --> 00:19:17,791
Um, and I would imagine when we see diffs
579
00:19:17,791 --> 00:19:21,458
like this for another, uh, type of
580
00:19:21,500 --> 00:19:23,541
hardware, we would, uh, that's when we
581
00:19:23,541 --> 00:19:25,208
would expect to see Fremont debuted
582
00:19:25,208 --> 00:19:26,375
some sometime soon.
583
00:19:26,750 --> 00:19:27,875
It's quantum people, right?
584
00:19:29,291 --> 00:19:29,875
Is it quantum?
585
00:19:30,458 --> 00:19:31,500
I think it was.
586
00:19:31,791 --> 00:19:32,083
Quanta.
587
00:19:32,625 --> 00:19:32,916
Quanta.
588
00:19:33,125 --> 00:19:33,708
Quanta.
589
00:19:33,708 --> 00:19:33,916
Yes.
590
00:19:34,125 --> 00:19:35,583
Oh, yeah.
591
00:19:35,833 --> 00:19:37,291
Like, like, at least I
592
00:19:37,291 --> 00:19:38,083
know that for the LCD.
593
00:19:38,583 --> 00:19:39,750
I don't know if it's the same for the
594
00:19:39,750 --> 00:19:41,375
OLED, but I mean, it probably is.
595
00:19:41,375 --> 00:19:41,583
Right.
596
00:19:42,208 --> 00:19:42,833
I would imagine.
597
00:19:43,541 --> 00:19:44,125
Um, yeah.
598
00:19:44,291 --> 00:19:44,500
Quantum.
599
00:19:44,500 --> 00:19:45,833
You said quantum computing and I was
600
00:19:45,833 --> 00:19:49,666
like, Oh, here we go with a black Mesa.
601
00:19:51,416 --> 00:19:53,625
Uh, you just triggered me on like
602
00:19:53,625 --> 00:19:55,333
half-life always has to be innovative.
603
00:19:55,333 --> 00:19:57,333
Every time it releases, it's like quantum
604
00:19:57,333 --> 00:19:59,000
computing confirmed this year.
605
00:19:59,041 --> 00:20:00,083
It's coming out this year.
606
00:20:00,083 --> 00:20:01,125
Half-life is going to be the first game
607
00:20:01,125 --> 00:20:02,708
to support quantum computing.
608
00:20:04,208 --> 00:20:06,291
That's where my mind, I'm sorry.
609
00:20:08,791 --> 00:20:09,916
I couldn't imagine that.
610
00:20:09,916 --> 00:20:10,291
Let's crit.
611
00:20:11,583 --> 00:20:13,625
One thing that I want to mention is, have
612
00:20:13,625 --> 00:20:16,458
you guys noticed that, uh, it's blue
613
00:20:16,500 --> 00:20:20,708
for LCD and it's, uh, uh, orange for L
614
00:20:20,708 --> 00:20:24,083
uh, LED, which are the color of portals.
615
00:20:24,833 --> 00:20:25,000
Oh,
616
00:20:27,625 --> 00:20:30,083
oh, no.
617
00:20:30,291 --> 00:20:31,416
Oh my God.
618
00:20:31,958 --> 00:20:33,041
Half-life or I'm sorry.
619
00:20:33,041 --> 00:20:33,833
Portal three confirmed.
620
00:20:34,583 --> 00:20:37,875
What's all three confirmed portal here.
621
00:20:38,250 --> 00:20:38,625
First, bro.
622
00:20:39,666 --> 00:20:41,125
Portal three needs to have three portals.
623
00:20:41,500 --> 00:20:41,625
Three.
624
00:20:41,625 --> 00:20:42,666
Don't like the portals, dude.
625
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:43,500
Portal three.
626
00:20:43,750 --> 00:20:44,166
Oh man.
627
00:20:44,500 --> 00:20:46,333
That's my number one, most winning game.
628
00:20:47,083 --> 00:20:47,458
Is it?
629
00:20:47,708 --> 00:20:48,708
I love portal.
630
00:20:49,291 --> 00:20:50,833
I had it's half-life for me, but then
631
00:20:50,833 --> 00:20:52,000
portal is really close.
632
00:20:52,250 --> 00:20:54,208
It's just up until very recently portal
633
00:20:54,208 --> 00:20:56,208
was my most played game on steam.
634
00:20:57,333 --> 00:20:57,875
Portal two.
635
00:20:57,875 --> 00:20:58,291
I'm sorry.
636
00:20:58,291 --> 00:21:00,208
Portal two is really good.
637
00:21:00,208 --> 00:21:03,166
They did a fantastic job with the story.
638
00:21:04,166 --> 00:21:06,000
Like it's, it's a fun ride.
639
00:21:07,125 --> 00:21:09,833
Did I hope one day we'll get, uh, we'll
640
00:21:09,833 --> 00:21:12,500
get portal three or half-life three for
641
00:21:12,500 --> 00:21:12,791
the matter.
642
00:21:13,708 --> 00:21:14,458
I think we will.
643
00:21:14,458 --> 00:21:16,375
Honestly, I think, no, I think we, I
644
00:21:16,375 --> 00:21:17,166
think we're going to, well, I don't
645
00:21:17,166 --> 00:21:18,333
know if they'll be called three.
646
00:21:18,791 --> 00:21:19,708
Like you could argue that
647
00:21:19,708 --> 00:21:21,750
half-life Alex is half-life three.
648
00:21:22,250 --> 00:21:22,583
Yeah.
649
00:21:22,583 --> 00:21:23,666
And they're just trolling us.
650
00:21:23,958 --> 00:21:25,625
Like it will probably be half-life four
651
00:21:25,625 --> 00:21:26,375
that comes out this year.
652
00:21:26,500 --> 00:21:28,750
And they're just like, Hey, sorry guys.
653
00:21:28,750 --> 00:21:30,083
Half-life Alex is half-life three.
654
00:21:30,083 --> 00:21:31,375
We just wanted to troll you guys.
655
00:21:31,375 --> 00:21:32,500
And I'd be down with that.
656
00:21:32,500 --> 00:21:33,500
Cause I could see Gabe doing that.
657
00:21:33,500 --> 00:21:35,791
He gets really frustrated with people
658
00:21:35,791 --> 00:21:37,541
asking you when, when
659
00:21:37,541 --> 00:21:38,375
half-life three's out.
660
00:21:38,375 --> 00:21:39,750
And I know that he's like, if someone
661
00:21:39,750 --> 00:21:40,625
else says it again, I
662
00:21:40,625 --> 00:21:41,708
know half-life three.
663
00:21:42,125 --> 00:21:43,291
That could have been his
664
00:21:43,291 --> 00:21:44,750
promise was half-life Alex.
665
00:21:44,750 --> 00:21:44,958
Sorry.
666
00:21:45,166 --> 00:21:48,208
My, my conspiracy has been on this week.
667
00:21:48,208 --> 00:21:50,333
So how about half-life X?
668
00:21:52,500 --> 00:21:53,958
Would you prefer it be called half-life
669
00:21:53,958 --> 00:21:55,208
three or half-life X?
670
00:21:56,250 --> 00:21:57,166
Well, that's half-life ten.
671
00:21:57,166 --> 00:21:58,458
I get one.
672
00:21:59,166 --> 00:21:59,958
Yeah, I'd do right.
673
00:22:00,500 --> 00:22:01,250
If we're going off of
674
00:22:01,250 --> 00:22:03,000
apples, maybe convention.
675
00:22:03,916 --> 00:22:04,916
I don't care.
676
00:22:05,166 --> 00:22:08,250
Half-life X one, then half-life X two.
677
00:22:08,916 --> 00:22:09,916
Look, I prefer to call
678
00:22:09,916 --> 00:22:10,916
it half-life Twitter.
679
00:22:11,416 --> 00:22:11,625
Okay.
680
00:22:12,041 --> 00:22:13,708
Oh my gosh.
681
00:22:15,166 --> 00:22:15,583
Half-life.
682
00:22:15,833 --> 00:22:16,000
Shoulder.
683
00:22:16,250 --> 00:22:16,708
Um, yeah.
684
00:22:16,916 --> 00:22:19,041
So I don't, I don't care.
685
00:22:19,416 --> 00:22:21,458
I think the evidence points that like
686
00:22:21,458 --> 00:22:23,666
Left 4 Dead X was a
687
00:22:23,666 --> 00:22:25,000
code name for Left 4 Dead 3
688
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:25,958
before they canceled it.
689
00:22:26,208 --> 00:22:28,875
So it sounds like it might be a way that
690
00:22:28,875 --> 00:22:31,083
they code name things, um, sort of.
691
00:22:31,083 --> 00:22:33,333
Why did they, uh, cancel Left 4 Dead 3?
692
00:22:35,250 --> 00:22:37,166
Um, they probably just didn't
693
00:22:37,166 --> 00:22:38,375
feel like it was fun enough.
694
00:22:38,916 --> 00:22:40,458
Uh, they could also put
695
00:22:40,458 --> 00:22:41,250
it on the back burner.
696
00:22:41,541 --> 00:22:42,666
Maybe they morphed it
697
00:22:42,666 --> 00:22:43,458
into a different game.
698
00:22:43,458 --> 00:22:43,875
They do that.
699
00:22:44,125 --> 00:22:46,750
Like valve is a very weird company when
700
00:22:46,750 --> 00:22:47,458
it comes to development.
701
00:22:48,541 --> 00:22:49,208
Which I love.
702
00:22:49,750 --> 00:22:52,375
So that doesn't mean half-life or, uh,
703
00:22:52,375 --> 00:22:54,125
Left 4 Dead 3 could not happen.
704
00:22:54,750 --> 00:22:56,333
It's just, they didn't think
705
00:22:56,333 --> 00:22:57,750
it was worth it at the time.
706
00:22:58,166 --> 00:22:59,166
So they canceled it.
707
00:22:59,416 --> 00:23:00,000
Is one of them.
708
00:23:00,458 --> 00:23:03,208
That was just, that was the era of valve,
709
00:23:03,666 --> 00:23:05,416
like just canceling everything too.
710
00:23:05,791 --> 00:23:08,000
Like, I mean, after Dota 2, right?
711
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:08,833
Like it was just, there
712
00:23:08,833 --> 00:23:10,416
was nothing for a long time.
713
00:23:11,791 --> 00:23:14,208
I think they did release one, uh, card
714
00:23:14,208 --> 00:23:15,916
game that did really poorly too.
715
00:23:15,916 --> 00:23:17,333
And I don't think that helped.
716
00:23:17,833 --> 00:23:19,500
So they released something
717
00:23:19,500 --> 00:23:20,791
that probably didn't help.
718
00:23:20,791 --> 00:23:22,500
It's almost, you can almost see valve as
719
00:23:22,500 --> 00:23:24,166
like a person in its own self.
720
00:23:24,500 --> 00:23:25,791
Like they did really well
721
00:23:25,791 --> 00:23:27,875
the first, uh, two games.
722
00:23:28,416 --> 00:23:30,708
Then they had some expansions in both
723
00:23:30,708 --> 00:23:31,833
half-life and half-life too.
724
00:23:31,833 --> 00:23:32,916
That just did okay.
725
00:23:33,208 --> 00:23:33,750
Even though they're very
726
00:23:33,750 --> 00:23:35,083
iconic, they just did okay.
727
00:23:35,666 --> 00:23:37,708
And that might've caused some self doubt.
728
00:23:37,708 --> 00:23:41,541
And that's why, um, portal one happened
729
00:23:41,541 --> 00:23:42,708
because we're going into
730
00:23:42,708 --> 00:23:43,958
deep dive territory here.
731
00:23:44,250 --> 00:23:47,000
Portal one happened because it was, um,
732
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,166
essentially a tech demo from a college
733
00:23:49,291 --> 00:23:50,375
student that was applying or something
734
00:23:50,375 --> 00:23:51,541
like that, some along those lines.
735
00:23:51,541 --> 00:23:53,375
So they brought it on, finished it.
736
00:23:53,666 --> 00:23:55,166
And then portal two came from that.
737
00:23:55,375 --> 00:23:56,666
So, and they do iterative
738
00:23:56,666 --> 00:23:57,875
stuff really fast like that.
739
00:23:57,875 --> 00:23:59,333
So if they do really well with the first
740
00:23:59,333 --> 00:24:01,375
one, they have a lot of ideas for
741
00:24:01,375 --> 00:24:02,833
the second one that they get out.
742
00:24:03,291 --> 00:24:07,666
And so once like left for dead and portal
743
00:24:07,666 --> 00:24:10,000
was out, they kind of fumbled around.
744
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:11,083
And I think they kind of
745
00:24:11,083 --> 00:24:12,416
had lost some self-confidence.
746
00:24:13,083 --> 00:24:14,083
That's what it sounds like.
747
00:24:14,833 --> 00:24:16,083
Um, and so that's why I think we're
748
00:24:16,083 --> 00:24:16,791
starting to see some of that
749
00:24:16,791 --> 00:24:18,000
self-confidence come back.
750
00:24:18,791 --> 00:24:19,000
Yeah.
751
00:24:19,208 --> 00:24:20,958
They also didn't need to release new
752
00:24:20,958 --> 00:24:22,583
games for a while, but you know,
753
00:24:22,958 --> 00:24:23,541
they still don't know.
754
00:24:23,541 --> 00:24:24,916
I don't think that's, I don't think
755
00:24:24,916 --> 00:24:25,958
that's how they play though.
756
00:24:25,958 --> 00:24:28,041
That's the thing they, if, if they were
757
00:24:28,041 --> 00:24:29,500
like, that's what makes them interesting.
758
00:24:29,500 --> 00:24:31,291
And they still do capitalistic things
759
00:24:31,291 --> 00:24:32,541
that are kind of annoying sometimes.
760
00:24:32,541 --> 00:24:32,708
Right.
761
00:24:32,708 --> 00:24:34,333
We talked about that last week with the,
762
00:24:34,666 --> 00:24:36,583
the whole gambling thing where
763
00:24:36,583 --> 00:24:37,833
they can maybe squash that more.
764
00:24:38,583 --> 00:24:42,166
But internally, we don't know exactly how
765
00:24:42,166 --> 00:24:43,750
much of that's being
766
00:24:43,750 --> 00:24:45,000
run by who and whatnot.
767
00:24:45,750 --> 00:24:47,958
So if they, if there were like a lot of
768
00:24:47,958 --> 00:24:50,083
other game companies or companies, they
769
00:24:50,083 --> 00:24:53,000
would just stop making games and just
770
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,083
would have stuck with one or two live
771
00:24:55,083 --> 00:24:58,000
act or live service and steam and they
772
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,458
wouldn't, but so I, there's a lot of
773
00:25:00,458 --> 00:25:01,333
passion and you can
774
00:25:01,333 --> 00:25:02,166
see it with a game too.
775
00:25:02,166 --> 00:25:03,916
There's a lot of, they, he didn't need to
776
00:25:03,916 --> 00:25:07,083
quit Microsoft and do valve him and his
777
00:25:07,125 --> 00:25:09,000
co-founder, like they
778
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:09,666
didn't need to do that.
779
00:25:10,250 --> 00:25:13,666
So I think that's rooted in the whole
780
00:25:13,666 --> 00:25:15,916
company's like mantra and hopefully
781
00:25:15,916 --> 00:25:17,166
that doesn't go away anytime soon.
782
00:25:17,166 --> 00:25:18,125
So we'll see.
783
00:25:18,666 --> 00:25:20,250
Valve is one of those companies that you
784
00:25:20,250 --> 00:25:21,041
can never predict
785
00:25:21,041 --> 00:25:21,875
what they're going to do.
786
00:25:22,083 --> 00:25:24,000
Like, no, I don't think like not even
787
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,041
like five years ago, we wouldn't have, we
788
00:25:26,041 --> 00:25:27,208
wouldn't have ever predicted that valve
789
00:25:27,208 --> 00:25:29,291
would make a PC handheld and not
790
00:25:29,291 --> 00:25:31,208
actually make that market viable.
791
00:25:31,500 --> 00:25:31,708
Right.
792
00:25:32,833 --> 00:25:33,041
Yeah.
793
00:25:33,500 --> 00:25:34,541
Like no one would have
794
00:25:34,541 --> 00:25:35,416
ever seen that coming.
795
00:25:35,583 --> 00:25:37,958
And yeah, they killed it.
796
00:25:38,583 --> 00:25:39,333
No steam machine was
797
00:25:39,333 --> 00:25:40,333
another thing that caused them.
798
00:25:40,333 --> 00:25:41,541
I think some hesitation too.
799
00:25:41,541 --> 00:25:42,958
Like I think they lost a lot of
800
00:25:42,958 --> 00:25:45,416
confidence in the early 2010s.
801
00:25:45,625 --> 00:25:49,916
And so, um, but luckily they didn't give
802
00:25:49,916 --> 00:25:52,416
up and kind of more, like they kept on
803
00:25:52,416 --> 00:25:54,333
going and yeah, I mean, it's been a
804
00:25:54,333 --> 00:25:55,333
decade long endeavor
805
00:25:55,333 --> 00:25:56,541
for them to like make
806
00:25:56,625 --> 00:25:58,791
Linux viable for gaming, like no offense.
807
00:25:58,791 --> 00:25:59,125
Carter.
808
00:25:59,125 --> 00:26:00,333
I know you've been following Linux and
809
00:26:00,333 --> 00:26:02,583
getting for like decades now, but like,
810
00:26:03,833 --> 00:26:04,333
I think you understand
811
00:26:04,333 --> 00:26:05,125
where I'm coming from, right?
812
00:26:05,125 --> 00:26:05,500
Oh yeah.
813
00:26:05,750 --> 00:26:05,958
Yeah.
814
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,083
I mean, I was, so I started my channel
815
00:26:08,083 --> 00:26:12,083
like, uh, just after valve announced the
816
00:26:12,083 --> 00:26:15,458
steam machines and, uh, because I was
817
00:26:15,458 --> 00:26:17,291
really, I loved the idea.
818
00:26:17,291 --> 00:26:19,083
I was like, and I had been a Linux gamer
819
00:26:19,083 --> 00:26:21,166
for years at that point before that.
820
00:26:21,625 --> 00:26:24,583
Uh, and so I was like, totally gung ho.
821
00:26:25,375 --> 00:26:27,791
And, uh, and then they didn't really do
822
00:26:27,791 --> 00:26:29,458
very well, but there were still
823
00:26:29,458 --> 00:26:30,791
a ton of games to talk about.
824
00:26:30,791 --> 00:26:32,791
So, uh, I don't know.
825
00:26:32,833 --> 00:26:34,208
I'm not going to take credit for valve
826
00:26:34,208 --> 00:26:36,166
coming back to Linux gaming.
827
00:26:36,166 --> 00:26:37,083
They never really left.
828
00:26:37,083 --> 00:26:39,833
They've been the driving force, but like,
829
00:26:39,833 --> 00:26:42,333
dude, I mean, it was, it was rough
830
00:26:42,333 --> 00:26:44,250
there between steam machines and proton.
831
00:26:44,500 --> 00:26:45,666
It was really rough.
832
00:26:45,666 --> 00:26:48,000
It was, it was very, it was
833
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:49,708
an uncertain time for sure.
834
00:26:50,708 --> 00:26:52,833
Now you say you play games on one X, but
835
00:26:52,833 --> 00:26:55,416
we saw what you played last year.
836
00:26:55,416 --> 00:26:56,375
It was not on Linux.
837
00:26:56,708 --> 00:26:57,666
I know it wasn't.
838
00:26:57,875 --> 00:26:58,083
I know.
839
00:26:58,250 --> 00:26:58,500
I know.
840
00:26:58,750 --> 00:27:00,916
I'm, I'm, I'm messing with.
841
00:27:01,291 --> 00:27:03,791
No, no, it literally like, that was the
842
00:27:03,791 --> 00:27:06,625
most weird year, like, because I was
843
00:27:06,666 --> 00:27:09,791
developing dudelings and God, I haven't
844
00:27:09,791 --> 00:27:11,500
had any time to play games, but.
845
00:27:12,166 --> 00:27:14,500
But thankfully, uh, steam, uh, the steam
846
00:27:14,500 --> 00:27:15,583
deck counts as Linux gaming.
847
00:27:16,041 --> 00:27:16,500
So it does.
848
00:27:16,708 --> 00:27:16,958
It does.
849
00:27:17,250 --> 00:27:18,791
So I'm guessing I just about.
850
00:27:19,958 --> 00:27:20,250
Oh yeah.
851
00:27:20,958 --> 00:27:23,541
So I do, I do want to ask one
852
00:27:23,541 --> 00:27:25,000
more thing with the CES stuff.
853
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:25,500
And let's get in the
854
00:27:25,500 --> 00:27:27,416
Nvidia with the CES stuff.
855
00:27:27,416 --> 00:27:29,125
Cause I'm really curious if you guys
856
00:27:29,125 --> 00:27:30,875
think anything, like, is
857
00:27:30,916 --> 00:27:33,000
there any predictions that you have of
858
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:33,833
anything else that's
859
00:27:33,833 --> 00:27:35,291
going to occur there?
860
00:27:35,875 --> 00:27:38,500
Um, because there's, this is a plethora
861
00:27:38,500 --> 00:27:40,333
of like stuff that could happen this
862
00:27:40,333 --> 00:27:44,583
year at this CES, um, and what's going to
863
00:27:44,583 --> 00:27:46,250
be like, I think handhelds are going to
864
00:27:46,250 --> 00:27:49,625
be taking a pretty big, like, cause it's
865
00:27:49,625 --> 00:27:51,416
just so many companies are, are treating
866
00:27:51,458 --> 00:27:52,916
handhelds more as a viable option.
867
00:27:54,500 --> 00:27:54,750
Right.
868
00:27:55,541 --> 00:27:58,500
Definitely a lot of AI, lots of AI.
869
00:27:59,250 --> 00:28:01,791
I, I love AI.
870
00:28:02,416 --> 00:28:04,500
I hate how AI is marketed.
871
00:28:05,541 --> 00:28:07,916
Some kind of AI handheld just for you.
872
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,625
So here's the thing, stop putting AI into
873
00:28:11,625 --> 00:28:12,666
the name of the chipsets.
874
00:28:12,666 --> 00:28:15,708
Like we know that you have, um, uh, API
875
00:28:15,708 --> 00:28:18,000
or you have cores on
876
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,041
there for AI specific
877
00:28:19,041 --> 00:28:21,250
dedicated AI cores, stop
878
00:28:21,250 --> 00:28:22,500
putting AI into the titles.
879
00:28:22,500 --> 00:28:23,125
We don't need that.
880
00:28:23,791 --> 00:28:24,375
But that's for the
881
00:28:24,375 --> 00:28:25,708
dumbasses that don't know.
882
00:28:25,708 --> 00:28:26,916
And that they want AI in their machines.
883
00:28:26,958 --> 00:28:31,250
There is, there's no way a dumbass is
884
00:28:31,250 --> 00:28:32,791
going to understand the naming
885
00:28:32,875 --> 00:28:35,375
convention of an AMD APU anyways.
886
00:28:35,583 --> 00:28:36,541
Like you look at that thing, that's going
887
00:28:36,541 --> 00:28:37,958
to make them more confused and probably
888
00:28:38,625 --> 00:28:40,708
like, um, I'm not going to go on that.
889
00:28:41,416 --> 00:28:42,333
It's, it's bad.
890
00:28:42,791 --> 00:28:44,000
Like there's, I don't, I
891
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,000
don't, I get it, but yeah.
892
00:28:46,708 --> 00:28:48,083
It's marketing jargon for it.
893
00:28:48,083 --> 00:28:50,250
Probably develop, uh, for their, um,
894
00:28:50,250 --> 00:28:51,250
investors and stuff like that.
895
00:28:51,458 --> 00:28:53,500
Probably because anything that's an AI
896
00:28:53,500 --> 00:28:55,666
name, but they could still have named it
897
00:28:56,541 --> 00:28:58,416
the Radeon AI or something like they
898
00:28:58,416 --> 00:29:01,250
could have put it into the actual, um,
899
00:29:01,500 --> 00:29:04,250
line name instead of at the very end of
900
00:29:04,250 --> 00:29:05,666
like some weird special chip set.
901
00:29:06,083 --> 00:29:08,166
They need to come up with their own like
902
00:29:08,166 --> 00:29:11,125
branding for AI powered stuff.
903
00:29:11,208 --> 00:29:11,500
Right.
904
00:29:11,750 --> 00:29:14,875
And so like there's Radeon for, for their
905
00:29:14,875 --> 00:29:16,541
GPUs and they should have something
906
00:29:16,541 --> 00:29:18,458
like, I don't know, like show Dan or
907
00:29:18,458 --> 00:29:20,916
something for their AI powered stuff.
908
00:29:21,500 --> 00:29:23,000
Um, I don't know if you get that
909
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:24,708
reference, but it's the AI from a,
910
00:29:25,791 --> 00:29:28,541
uh, uh, uh, system shock.
911
00:29:28,541 --> 00:29:29,666
It's like AI.
912
00:29:30,125 --> 00:29:30,375
Yeah.
913
00:29:30,625 --> 00:29:31,250
That's right.
914
00:29:31,958 --> 00:29:32,208
Damn.
915
00:29:33,416 --> 00:29:33,625
Yeah.
916
00:29:37,916 --> 00:29:39,625
Speaking of AI and video.
917
00:29:40,750 --> 00:29:42,791
So some prices have been revealed for
918
00:29:42,791 --> 00:29:46,000
Nvidia more specifically in China, but
919
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:47,541
these aren't completely off the mark
920
00:29:47,541 --> 00:29:48,375
compared to, uh,
921
00:29:49,250 --> 00:29:49,916
compared to what's in the
922
00:29:49,958 --> 00:29:54,541
US. So the RTX 50 90 has been listed for
923
00:29:54,541 --> 00:29:58,000
18,999 you watch Chinese Yuan,
924
00:29:58,583 --> 00:30:01,958
which is around $2,600 or, or the 50
925
00:30:01,958 --> 00:30:05,250
eighties blue been listed for 9,999 Yuan,
926
00:30:05,541 --> 00:30:08,541
which is about 13, uh, $1,350.
927
00:30:10,333 --> 00:30:10,583
All right.
928
00:30:10,583 --> 00:30:13,250
Here's the marketing pitch for the, the,
929
00:30:14,041 --> 00:30:15,833
uh, uh, was it the 50 90?
930
00:30:16,291 --> 00:30:16,500
Right.
931
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,250
There's an announcer comes on the screen.
932
00:30:19,291 --> 00:30:20,875
And they're like, Hey, Eddie, you want to
933
00:30:20,875 --> 00:30:22,875
double or triple the price of your PC
934
00:30:22,958 --> 00:30:27,083
build by a 50 90 you want some more AI
935
00:30:27,083 --> 00:30:29,833
and quadruple your,
936
00:30:29,833 --> 00:30:31,166
your power budget too.
937
00:30:31,458 --> 00:30:32,250
I'll be honest.
938
00:30:32,916 --> 00:30:35,041
It doesn't say RTX AI on it.
939
00:30:35,041 --> 00:30:36,041
I'm not buying it.
940
00:30:36,500 --> 00:30:37,541
I think they're going to fail.
941
00:30:37,541 --> 00:30:39,000
I have a feeling that they're going to
942
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,750
fail at this fucking Adam Jensen.
943
00:30:42,041 --> 00:30:42,833
You dumb ass.
944
00:30:42,833 --> 00:30:43,791
Don't you know that AI
945
00:30:43,791 --> 00:30:45,583
is the way of the future?
946
00:30:46,083 --> 00:30:48,500
Buy it, buy it right now.
947
00:30:48,958 --> 00:30:51,291
That's why they're valued so high is, is
948
00:30:51,291 --> 00:30:54,708
because of like, um, both AI and also
949
00:30:54,708 --> 00:30:58,541
their other like branding, like gaming is
950
00:30:58,541 --> 00:31:00,250
the one that at least I think valuable
951
00:31:01,791 --> 00:31:05,208
revenues that they have, which is crazy
952
00:31:05,208 --> 00:31:07,000
that they would price hike it like this.
953
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:08,083
So I think you think you, they would
954
00:31:08,083 --> 00:31:10,500
lower it and have, because the demand
955
00:31:10,500 --> 00:31:12,500
would be there, but they, and they see
956
00:31:12,500 --> 00:31:13,875
the demands there and I think they could.
957
00:31:14,583 --> 00:31:16,000
Match it with production.
958
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,666
So like this whole like supply and demand
959
00:31:18,666 --> 00:31:20,750
doesn't make sense for me and Nvidia
960
00:31:20,750 --> 00:31:22,208
keeps on going higher when it's supposed
961
00:31:22,208 --> 00:31:25,708
to even out and go lower as it's, I don't
962
00:31:25,708 --> 00:31:26,416
think it's that much more
963
00:31:26,416 --> 00:31:27,583
expensive for them to make.
964
00:31:27,583 --> 00:31:29,666
I think there really is just a.
965
00:31:30,041 --> 00:31:31,291
Agreed take, which makes me
966
00:31:31,291 --> 00:31:32,833
even more off put by Nvidia.
967
00:31:32,833 --> 00:31:33,500
And I'm going to probably
968
00:31:33,500 --> 00:31:36,083
be doing more AMD builds.
969
00:31:36,833 --> 00:31:37,916
I just really don't like seeing this.
970
00:31:38,083 --> 00:31:40,875
Like I don't see, there will be people
971
00:31:40,875 --> 00:31:42,333
that will probably, because they're
972
00:31:42,416 --> 00:31:44,541
doing, you know, if it's $2,600, which I
973
00:31:44,541 --> 00:31:47,083
read somewhere else is 22, but, um, even
974
00:31:47,083 --> 00:31:49,291
if it's $2,600, so people will buy this
975
00:31:49,291 --> 00:31:51,333
and we'll offset some of the people not
976
00:31:51,375 --> 00:31:52,666
buying it, but I don't know if it's
977
00:31:52,666 --> 00:31:54,250
actually going to be enough as opposed
978
00:31:54,250 --> 00:31:55,666
to if they drop the price.
979
00:31:55,791 --> 00:31:58,458
So I will say this China does employ that
980
00:31:58,458 --> 00:32:02,125
a 13% that so after adjustments, the
981
00:32:02,125 --> 00:32:04,291
prices of the 20, 58, it'll be around
982
00:32:04,291 --> 00:32:08,083
$1,200 and the 59 it'll be $2,200, which
983
00:32:08,166 --> 00:32:10,208
I've said before, but it's still like a
984
00:32:10,208 --> 00:32:13,750
30% hike for the, uh, for the 90 series,
985
00:32:13,833 --> 00:32:15,250
uh, 92, 18 years.
986
00:32:15,708 --> 00:32:17,750
Expect that to be drastically higher.
987
00:32:17,833 --> 00:32:20,000
Cause, um, there's going to be an
988
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,000
American VAD on that or not a VAD.
989
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:23,291
I wish it was a VAD.
990
00:32:23,583 --> 00:32:24,875
VADs actually have a value added.
991
00:32:24,875 --> 00:32:26,916
It's a value added tax as opposed to, um,
992
00:32:26,916 --> 00:32:28,833
we're going to be having tariffs most
993
00:32:28,875 --> 00:32:30,541
likely and it, and it definitely looks
994
00:32:30,541 --> 00:32:32,541
like there's more doubling down from a
995
00:32:32,541 --> 00:32:33,458
certain amount of registration that's
996
00:32:33,458 --> 00:32:34,166
going to be taken over soon.
997
00:32:34,208 --> 00:32:37,333
So 2025 is going to be a very interesting
998
00:32:37,333 --> 00:32:39,041
year with hardware like this.
999
00:32:39,750 --> 00:32:42,083
And prices for everything to be honest.
1000
00:32:42,833 --> 00:32:43,041
Oh yeah.
1001
00:32:43,250 --> 00:32:44,708
If, if you're really, if
1002
00:32:44,708 --> 00:32:46,166
you're, here's my biggest advice.
1003
00:32:46,166 --> 00:32:48,416
If you planning on buying any type of
1004
00:32:48,416 --> 00:32:50,458
hardware and you want to save some decent
1005
00:32:50,458 --> 00:32:52,000
amount of money, it just might be worth
1006
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:53,666
getting now as opposed to waiting.
1007
00:32:53,916 --> 00:32:55,791
It, cause if those tariffs do go through,
1008
00:32:56,416 --> 00:33:00,083
you're going to be paying a huge price.
1009
00:33:00,083 --> 00:33:01,541
Like this is that probably going to be
1010
00:33:01,541 --> 00:33:02,500
one of the biggest price hikes we've
1011
00:33:02,500 --> 00:33:04,291
seen potentially on this
1012
00:33:04,291 --> 00:33:05,333
type of hardware in history.
1013
00:33:05,708 --> 00:33:09,166
So if it goes through, I'm skeptical.
1014
00:33:09,625 --> 00:33:10,083
Fucking it.
1015
00:33:10,250 --> 00:33:10,458
No.
1016
00:33:10,916 --> 00:33:13,666
Now to play the devil's advocate for just
1017
00:33:13,666 --> 00:33:15,125
a moment, here's a question.
1018
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,208
I believe high tech, maybe two episodes
1019
00:33:18,208 --> 00:33:19,916
ago complained that
1020
00:33:19,916 --> 00:33:21,000
they have artificially
1021
00:33:21,208 --> 00:33:24,208
limited the amount of VRAM on their, on
1022
00:33:24,208 --> 00:33:25,625
their 40 series cards.
1023
00:33:25,625 --> 00:33:26,416
And even, I think
1024
00:33:26,416 --> 00:33:27,875
they're 30 series cards.
1025
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:28,541
Is that right?
1026
00:33:29,250 --> 00:33:30,375
For the six, for like
1027
00:33:30,375 --> 00:33:31,875
the 62 GPs, I believe.
1028
00:33:31,875 --> 00:33:32,333
Yes.
1029
00:33:32,750 --> 00:33:33,166
Okay.
1030
00:33:33,166 --> 00:33:35,125
Are these the 50 90s here?
1031
00:33:35,125 --> 00:33:38,833
Are they going to have, uh, more VRAM
1032
00:33:38,833 --> 00:33:40,833
than other than the previous cards?
1033
00:33:40,833 --> 00:33:42,625
So I believe these are supposed to have
1034
00:33:42,625 --> 00:33:46,500
32 gigs of DD, GDD or seven RAM.
1035
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:48,250
Wow.
1036
00:33:49,291 --> 00:33:52,125
So that 32 is like the highest I've heard
1037
00:33:52,125 --> 00:33:53,833
it like, isn't it like 24 is the highest
1038
00:33:53,833 --> 00:33:55,208
I've heard it before, unless there's a
1039
00:33:55,208 --> 00:33:58,541
card I'm mistaken that has higher, like,
1040
00:33:58,833 --> 00:34:02,541
so the, the, the 40 90 and I think the 40
1041
00:34:02,541 --> 00:34:03,958
90 has a 24 gig, doesn't it?
1042
00:34:03,958 --> 00:34:06,458
And then the 30 90, which we have, uh, we
1043
00:34:06,458 --> 00:34:09,333
have, I think, Carter is right.
1044
00:34:09,541 --> 00:34:10,750
I have a 30 90.
1045
00:34:11,666 --> 00:34:12,083
Yeah.
1046
00:34:12,083 --> 00:34:15,291
Which has what 20 or 80?
1047
00:34:15,291 --> 00:34:15,958
I don't, I don't know how
1048
00:34:15,958 --> 00:34:18,000
much VRAM has, but yeah.
1049
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,500
It has, uh, what,
1050
00:34:21,500 --> 00:34:23,500
where I have 12 gigabytes.
1051
00:34:24,333 --> 00:34:26,041
Oh, I have the bigger one then.
1052
00:34:26,166 --> 00:34:27,666
Um, they have two different models.
1053
00:34:27,750 --> 00:34:28,958
That's another thing that's really stupid
1054
00:34:28,958 --> 00:34:30,000
is that they allow for
1055
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:31,041
different VRAM model.
1056
00:34:31,416 --> 00:34:31,583
Sorry.
1057
00:34:31,708 --> 00:34:32,500
You have a 30 80.
1058
00:34:32,500 --> 00:34:32,833
That's right.
1059
00:34:33,250 --> 00:34:35,083
So the 30 80 also has two models too.
1060
00:34:35,083 --> 00:34:37,291
I think the 30 90 potentially has two
1061
00:34:37,291 --> 00:34:39,375
VRAM models, but, um,
1062
00:34:40,375 --> 00:34:42,666
this, like usually the,
1063
00:34:42,708 --> 00:34:44,666
the, the 90 series has
1064
00:34:44,666 --> 00:34:46,208
always had plenty of RAM.
1065
00:34:46,583 --> 00:34:47,958
So that's never been the problem.
1066
00:34:48,333 --> 00:34:50,291
Even with the 30 90, like with the one I
1067
00:34:50,291 --> 00:34:51,916
have, I shouldn't have too many issues
1068
00:34:52,083 --> 00:34:54,708
with a lot of heavy, uh, textured games,
1069
00:34:54,708 --> 00:34:57,208
like, uh, large textured games.
1070
00:34:58,166 --> 00:35:02,250
Uh, but the 60 series, like their mid
1071
00:35:02,250 --> 00:35:03,250
range has always been
1072
00:35:03,250 --> 00:35:06,666
like, they've really neutered
1073
00:35:06,666 --> 00:35:08,708
it a lot and it's really infuriating
1074
00:35:08,708 --> 00:35:10,208
because it really just
1075
00:35:10,208 --> 00:35:12,250
ultimately what it does is
1076
00:35:12,416 --> 00:35:15,291
it causes other, like they're forcing
1077
00:35:15,291 --> 00:35:19,041
upgrades every few, like few years.
1078
00:35:19,500 --> 00:35:21,666
Because you almost have to with the way
1079
00:35:21,666 --> 00:35:23,875
that textures are a big way to improve,
1080
00:35:24,750 --> 00:35:25,875
uh, the way games look.
1081
00:35:26,541 --> 00:35:29,000
And unfortunately, if you throw more or,
1082
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,083
uh, uncompressed in
1083
00:35:30,083 --> 00:35:31,875
the more lifelike they
1084
00:35:31,875 --> 00:35:32,833
look, they're going to be, they're going
1085
00:35:32,833 --> 00:35:33,791
to take up more VRAM.
1086
00:35:34,041 --> 00:35:35,250
So I.
1087
00:35:36,375 --> 00:35:36,583
Yeah.
1088
00:35:36,833 --> 00:35:38,041
So to add to that
1089
00:35:38,041 --> 00:35:39,208
garden, yeah, I did say that.
1090
00:35:39,500 --> 00:35:41,083
And they're doing it again with the 50
1091
00:35:41,083 --> 00:35:44,750
60, the 50 60 is going to have eight gigs
1092
00:35:44,750 --> 00:35:47,000
of VRAM, much like the 40 60.
1093
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,250
And I believe 30 60 had like 12 gigs.
1094
00:35:49,250 --> 00:35:50,916
If I'm not mistaken, let me look at that.
1095
00:35:51,125 --> 00:35:51,333
Actually.
1096
00:35:53,041 --> 00:35:53,583
30 60.
1097
00:35:53,875 --> 00:35:55,958
They also had different variants too.
1098
00:35:56,166 --> 00:35:57,666
Like, um, a lot of these, even mid range
1099
00:35:57,666 --> 00:36:00,125
cards had like, you'd have to look for
1100
00:36:00,125 --> 00:36:01,750
the VRAM I'd always recommend
1101
00:36:01,750 --> 00:36:03,208
anyone that buys a video card.
1102
00:36:03,500 --> 00:36:04,333
I'd recommend to get
1103
00:36:04,333 --> 00:36:06,250
as much VRAM as you can.
1104
00:36:06,750 --> 00:36:07,041
Yeah.
1105
00:36:07,041 --> 00:36:07,666
That might not be as
1106
00:36:07,666 --> 00:36:09,250
big a deal soon, but yeah.
1107
00:36:09,250 --> 00:36:09,458
Okay.
1108
00:36:09,458 --> 00:36:09,583
Yeah.
1109
00:36:09,583 --> 00:36:12,000
So the 30 60 had 12 gigs of VRAM.
1110
00:36:13,458 --> 00:36:16,000
So I don't know why they cut down on the
1111
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:17,250
VRAM for the 60 series.
1112
00:36:17,583 --> 00:36:19,791
Probably just probably the like quote
1113
00:36:19,791 --> 00:36:21,708
unquote save a buck, but really just to
1114
00:36:21,750 --> 00:36:23,791
push you to buy the more expensive units
1115
00:36:23,791 --> 00:36:25,083
or something like that.
1116
00:36:25,458 --> 00:36:27,416
Word has to be 50 60 TI.
1117
00:36:28,541 --> 00:36:31,166
We'll have 16 gigs of VRAM.
1118
00:36:32,041 --> 00:36:33,750
But again, why do they
1119
00:36:33,750 --> 00:36:35,166
even bother with a TI?
1120
00:36:35,500 --> 00:36:37,125
It's, it's fucking stupid.
1121
00:36:38,041 --> 00:36:38,250
Yeah.
1122
00:36:38,458 --> 00:36:40,583
And now like, and I'm just asking, I
1123
00:36:40,583 --> 00:36:41,791
don't, I don't know the question, the
1124
00:36:41,791 --> 00:36:46,666
answer, uh, the, the jump in, um, VRAM
1125
00:36:46,666 --> 00:36:48,666
doesn't come close to justifying
1126
00:36:48,666 --> 00:36:49,750
the jump in price, right?
1127
00:36:50,041 --> 00:36:50,291
Yeah.
1128
00:36:50,666 --> 00:36:50,791
No.
1129
00:36:50,916 --> 00:36:55,250
Also, also with landing the, the, the 50
1130
00:36:55,250 --> 00:37:00,375
70 is supposed to have 12 gigs of VRAM.
1131
00:37:00,500 --> 00:37:04,250
Come compared to the 50 60 T I's 16 gigs
1132
00:37:04,250 --> 00:37:07,333
of VRAM and the 50 70 TI is supposed
1133
00:37:07,333 --> 00:37:08,666
to have 16 gigs as well.
1134
00:37:09,833 --> 00:37:11,791
It's just gouging at this point.
1135
00:37:11,791 --> 00:37:12,041
Right.
1136
00:37:12,041 --> 00:37:12,916
I mean, this is ridiculous.
1137
00:37:13,666 --> 00:37:15,666
The worst part is that AM worst part is
1138
00:37:15,666 --> 00:37:18,500
that AMD basically does nothing to oppose
1139
00:37:18,583 --> 00:37:18,875
this.
1140
00:37:19,500 --> 00:37:21,041
They're, they're happy to watch Nvidia
1141
00:37:21,041 --> 00:37:22,500
hike the prices up because that means
1142
00:37:22,500 --> 00:37:24,000
they can hike it up too, even though they
1143
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:25,375
may not even justify it.
1144
00:37:25,583 --> 00:37:26,750
Not that Nvidia did or
1145
00:37:26,750 --> 00:37:29,416
anything, but like AMD even less so.
1146
00:37:30,625 --> 00:37:32,291
Maybe that's why we need Intel to really,
1147
00:37:33,291 --> 00:37:35,500
maybe Intel is our saviors on this.
1148
00:37:35,500 --> 00:37:37,458
Like their, their GPS are getting better.
1149
00:37:37,833 --> 00:37:39,041
I've heard great things of
1150
00:37:39,041 --> 00:37:41,541
their new GPU, but for the price.
1151
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:42,208
Yes.
1152
00:37:42,916 --> 00:37:45,083
But then again, they're pretty big too.
1153
00:37:45,083 --> 00:37:45,708
I don't know.
1154
00:37:45,708 --> 00:37:46,541
I feel like there's going to be some
1155
00:37:46,541 --> 00:37:47,875
price fixing lawsuits coming out.
1156
00:37:48,583 --> 00:37:49,750
Um, on some of the stuff
1157
00:37:49,750 --> 00:37:52,166
personally can't happen soon enough.
1158
00:37:52,666 --> 00:37:53,125
Yeah.
1159
00:37:53,416 --> 00:37:54,041
Yeah.
1160
00:37:54,041 --> 00:37:56,666
I mean, monitors went through that a few
1161
00:37:56,666 --> 00:37:57,375
years ago where they
1162
00:37:57,375 --> 00:37:58,291
had some major lawsuits
1163
00:37:58,291 --> 00:37:59,375
against them because there was price
1164
00:37:59,375 --> 00:38:02,125
price fiction fixing going on, which is
1165
00:38:02,500 --> 00:38:06,000
companies, um, talking amongst each other
1166
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:10,791
and artificially making, um, the cost go
1167
00:38:10,916 --> 00:38:12,708
up when they doesn't need to.
1168
00:38:12,708 --> 00:38:14,875
It that's, that's price fixing.
1169
00:38:15,125 --> 00:38:15,333
So.
1170
00:38:17,208 --> 00:38:17,833
Yeah.
1171
00:38:18,208 --> 00:38:19,166
I don't know.
1172
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,791
I don't, I mean, Andy and Nvidia on the
1173
00:38:22,791 --> 00:38:25,125
outside have a lot of competitive,
1174
00:38:25,666 --> 00:38:27,791
mean spirited battles in the past.
1175
00:38:27,791 --> 00:38:29,125
I don't know if you guys have seen, like
1176
00:38:29,125 --> 00:38:30,208
they've said, they've done some pretty
1177
00:38:30,208 --> 00:38:31,916
nasty things, but, uh,
1178
00:38:31,916 --> 00:38:33,000
behind closed doors, who knows?
1179
00:38:33,791 --> 00:38:35,958
Um, I mean, they've been sued in the past
1180
00:38:35,958 --> 00:38:37,958
for price facing both of them.
1181
00:38:38,458 --> 00:38:39,916
They've been sued for colluding.
1182
00:38:40,666 --> 00:38:41,375
Yeah, they have.
1183
00:38:42,791 --> 00:38:45,625
So like what better PR stunt than to make
1184
00:38:45,625 --> 00:38:47,041
it look like you hate each other.
1185
00:38:48,333 --> 00:38:49,666
And then just price
1186
00:38:49,666 --> 00:38:50,541
fixed behind the scenes.
1187
00:38:51,291 --> 00:38:53,000
I definitely wouldn't say AMD is like a
1188
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:54,416
saint with this, but I definitely trust
1189
00:38:54,500 --> 00:38:58,125
AMD a lot more than I do Nvidia because
1190
00:38:58,125 --> 00:39:02,375
the CEO has had said very, very
1191
00:39:02,458 --> 00:39:05,625
specifically mean-spirited things about
1192
00:39:05,625 --> 00:39:09,458
both gamers and also the gamers are like
1193
00:39:09,500 --> 00:39:13,125
the GPU, the GPU market, and they don't,
1194
00:39:13,125 --> 00:39:14,541
because they don't make enough money
1195
00:39:14,541 --> 00:39:16,833
from it, I think they just don't care.
1196
00:39:18,125 --> 00:39:19,750
That they can price I could however they
1197
00:39:19,750 --> 00:39:20,875
want instead of being more competitive.
1198
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,458
AMD or, uh, AMD or Nvidia.
1199
00:39:24,458 --> 00:39:24,666
Nvidia.
1200
00:39:25,625 --> 00:39:25,875
Yeah.
1201
00:39:26,166 --> 00:39:26,625
Fucking Nvidia.
1202
00:39:28,541 --> 00:39:29,416
But they do make good stuff.
1203
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,125
I like their cards.
1204
00:39:31,375 --> 00:39:31,916
I really do.
1205
00:39:32,166 --> 00:39:36,791
I just, it's very off-putting to be, um,
1206
00:39:37,208 --> 00:39:38,875
taken advantage of and I don't like it.
1207
00:39:39,250 --> 00:39:40,458
Cause that's what it feels like.
1208
00:39:42,125 --> 00:39:42,500
Yeah.
1209
00:39:42,500 --> 00:39:44,416
And just the fact that like they have
1210
00:39:44,416 --> 00:39:47,208
had, they have like this, uh, history
1211
00:39:47,500 --> 00:39:50,083
of just being like just shitty to people
1212
00:39:50,083 --> 00:39:52,500
that don't make them a ton of money.
1213
00:39:52,500 --> 00:39:54,916
You know, like I don't way, way back in
1214
00:39:54,916 --> 00:39:57,291
the day, they like removed a bunch of
1215
00:39:57,291 --> 00:39:59,458
features from the Linux drivers so that
1216
00:39:59,458 --> 00:40:01,708
they were feature parody with windows.
1217
00:40:02,500 --> 00:40:04,750
Because there was like some driver, like,
1218
00:40:04,750 --> 00:40:06,500
I think they supported more monitors or
1219
00:40:06,500 --> 00:40:08,166
something on Linux
1220
00:40:08,166 --> 00:40:09,375
than they did on windows.
1221
00:40:09,708 --> 00:40:12,916
And they removed that because whatever,
1222
00:40:12,916 --> 00:40:14,375
like they didn't want to maintain it.
1223
00:40:14,416 --> 00:40:15,875
It was probably a Microsoft rep or
1224
00:40:15,875 --> 00:40:16,541
something like getting
1225
00:40:16,541 --> 00:40:18,208
that it was, there was
1226
00:40:18,208 --> 00:40:19,791
some closed doors stuff on that.
1227
00:40:20,291 --> 00:40:20,500
Yeah.
1228
00:40:21,125 --> 00:40:21,500
Guaranteed.
1229
00:40:21,875 --> 00:40:23,625
At least they have like the open source
1230
00:40:23,625 --> 00:40:25,750
stuff now for their drivers and the
1231
00:40:25,750 --> 00:40:26,916
kernel, which is good, but
1232
00:40:26,916 --> 00:40:28,791
there's still, I don't trust them.
1233
00:40:29,416 --> 00:40:30,000
They're behind.
1234
00:40:30,083 --> 00:40:30,916
Yeah, exactly.
1235
00:40:30,916 --> 00:40:31,500
Don't trust them.
1236
00:40:31,958 --> 00:40:36,333
And at the end of the day, I think this
1237
00:40:36,333 --> 00:40:37,833
is another reason why I like, I know some
1238
00:40:37,833 --> 00:40:39,208
people in the communities and I can't
1239
00:40:39,208 --> 00:40:39,458
remember what you
1240
00:40:39,458 --> 00:40:40,666
guys are stance are like
1241
00:40:40,666 --> 00:40:43,083
on FSR and they like these either frame
1242
00:40:43,083 --> 00:40:45,541
generation or machine learning
1243
00:40:45,625 --> 00:40:46,166
techniques.
1244
00:40:47,583 --> 00:40:51,375
I like them and I like them for multiple
1245
00:40:51,375 --> 00:40:52,500
reasons, but they can
1246
00:40:52,500 --> 00:40:53,458
be done very poorly.
1247
00:40:53,750 --> 00:40:55,458
But it could be, especially if we have an
1248
00:40:55,458 --> 00:40:57,833
open source, which I think AMD does more
1249
00:40:57,833 --> 00:40:59,125
open source, which is another reason I
1250
00:40:59,125 --> 00:41:00,000
kind of like AMD more.
1251
00:41:00,291 --> 00:41:02,750
So they tend to champion open source, but
1252
00:41:02,750 --> 00:41:04,375
that could be another way to combat some
1253
00:41:04,375 --> 00:41:06,750
of this stuff is how it is like using
1254
00:41:06,750 --> 00:41:07,291
those types of
1255
00:41:07,291 --> 00:41:08,291
technologies to not have to
1256
00:41:08,333 --> 00:41:09,875
buy the top dog, but
1257
00:41:09,875 --> 00:41:11,291
to buy the mid range.
1258
00:41:12,166 --> 00:41:14,208
When I was, when I first bought my, like
1259
00:41:14,208 --> 00:41:17,041
my first HD TV, I was
1260
00:41:17,041 --> 00:41:18,041
like, you know what?
1261
00:41:18,500 --> 00:41:19,541
I don't, I don't get it.
1262
00:41:19,541 --> 00:41:20,375
I don't understand this.
1263
00:41:20,625 --> 00:41:21,625
And then, cause I
1264
00:41:21,625 --> 00:41:23,125
only had an X-Box, right?
1265
00:41:23,125 --> 00:41:26,291
Like an original X-Box and the stuff,
1266
00:41:26,291 --> 00:41:27,583
most of the games that I played on there
1267
00:41:27,583 --> 00:41:29,125
didn't support much other
1268
00:41:29,125 --> 00:41:31,416
more than like four 80 P right.
1269
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,875
And then I got a 360 and I connected it
1270
00:41:34,875 --> 00:41:37,916
and I was like, Oh, now I get HD.
1271
00:41:38,333 --> 00:41:40,500
Because there was the raw signal from the
1272
00:41:40,500 --> 00:41:42,083
console going right into the TV.
1273
00:41:43,291 --> 00:41:45,958
But now it's like, in order to get like a
1274
00:41:45,958 --> 00:41:48,041
raw signal at the native resolution, you
1275
00:41:48,041 --> 00:41:51,708
have to introduce this muddy, gross, like
1276
00:41:51,708 --> 00:41:54,875
AI upscaled image that I don't, I don't
1277
00:41:54,875 --> 00:41:56,916
personally like how FSR looks.
1278
00:41:57,333 --> 00:42:00,750
Um, and so that when, when I have, uh,
1279
00:42:00,750 --> 00:42:02,625
when I'm like playing games, I want it to
1280
00:42:02,625 --> 00:42:05,875
run at either the native resolution or if
1281
00:42:05,875 --> 00:42:07,291
it can't support running at the native
1282
00:42:07,375 --> 00:42:09,583
resolution fast enough, 10 ADP, and then
1283
00:42:09,583 --> 00:42:10,833
just upscale it that way.
1284
00:42:11,500 --> 00:42:13,541
I don't, I don't, I don't want to have a
1285
00:42:13,541 --> 00:42:15,291
game that's like AI upscaled.
1286
00:42:15,291 --> 00:42:16,083
I think it looks like
1287
00:42:16,083 --> 00:42:17,125
crap most of the time.
1288
00:42:18,166 --> 00:42:21,708
I think it, I completely
1289
00:42:21,708 --> 00:42:23,500
disagree to a point on that.
1290
00:42:23,708 --> 00:42:25,375
I think some games look really good with
1291
00:42:25,375 --> 00:42:28,291
FSR three, especially, and with some,
1292
00:42:28,291 --> 00:42:30,166
especially some of these newer ones, but
1293
00:42:30,166 --> 00:42:31,666
it really depends on the game.
1294
00:42:31,666 --> 00:42:33,583
It depends on how it's implemented and it
1295
00:42:33,583 --> 00:42:36,875
depends on, um, the certain
1296
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,500
outputs and, and I think how greedy the
1297
00:42:39,500 --> 00:42:40,833
algorithm is set to.
1298
00:42:41,041 --> 00:42:42,916
Um, maybe I've played them on like the
1299
00:42:42,916 --> 00:42:45,250
most performance setting or something,
1300
00:42:45,250 --> 00:42:46,458
but I just don't like how
1301
00:42:46,458 --> 00:42:47,416
it looks most of the time.
1302
00:42:47,625 --> 00:42:48,083
I can tell.
1303
00:42:48,375 --> 00:42:49,291
Cause I agree with you.
1304
00:42:49,291 --> 00:42:52,083
Like it can look pretty bad at times, but
1305
00:42:52,083 --> 00:42:54,375
where I've played it, where it's more
1306
00:42:54,375 --> 00:42:57,166
set to visuals, it, it can actually
1307
00:42:57,166 --> 00:42:58,750
really help with the
1308
00:42:58,750 --> 00:43:01,041
fidelity with no cost to
1309
00:43:01,041 --> 00:43:03,166
performance, maybe even a decrease in
1310
00:43:03,166 --> 00:43:05,500
like your, or an increase in your FPS.
1311
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,875
So I really think cyberpunk is one of
1312
00:43:08,875 --> 00:43:11,291
those ones where it has a, it's a blurred
1313
00:43:11,291 --> 00:43:13,041
line, it can look really crappy, or it
1314
00:43:13,041 --> 00:43:14,750
can make it look actually quite a bit
1315
00:43:14,750 --> 00:43:16,416
better, which is really cool.
1316
00:43:17,416 --> 00:43:18,166
Once again, though.
1317
00:43:18,875 --> 00:43:22,208
Um, and another reason for these frame
1318
00:43:22,208 --> 00:43:23,666
generation things is also up.
1319
00:43:23,791 --> 00:43:27,000
So the newer ones, what they do more than
1320
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,541
quality is they actually increase our
1321
00:43:29,541 --> 00:43:31,833
frame rate, which can just make it more
1322
00:43:31,833 --> 00:43:33,291
pleasant experience, right?
1323
00:43:33,916 --> 00:43:36,166
Which those ones I haven't actually seen
1324
00:43:36,166 --> 00:43:37,333
as much, I don't know if you guys have
1325
00:43:37,333 --> 00:43:38,791
have noticed, but I haven't seen too much
1326
00:43:38,791 --> 00:43:42,750
of a degradation in quality, but the like
1327
00:43:42,875 --> 00:43:43,750
playing games at 60
1328
00:43:43,750 --> 00:43:45,166
frames is just as beautiful.
1329
00:43:45,875 --> 00:43:48,750
And so if I don't lose any quality and it
1330
00:43:48,750 --> 00:43:50,750
can up into 60, that's all I care about.
1331
00:43:50,958 --> 00:43:52,541
That's all, honestly, all I really care
1332
00:43:52,541 --> 00:43:54,833
about is not having my game skip around
1333
00:43:54,833 --> 00:43:56,500
and it looks well
1334
00:43:56,500 --> 00:43:57,500
enough, like good enough.
1335
00:43:57,708 --> 00:43:59,083
Like that's all I want for my steam deck.
1336
00:44:00,125 --> 00:44:00,291
So.
1337
00:44:01,833 --> 00:44:03,250
I haven't tried any of the frame
1338
00:44:03,250 --> 00:44:04,333
generation stuff yet.
1339
00:44:04,750 --> 00:44:07,250
I don't like the frame generation stuff.
1340
00:44:07,250 --> 00:44:09,083
It just looks too smeary.
1341
00:44:09,083 --> 00:44:11,541
A lot of the time it looks too smeary.
1342
00:44:11,791 --> 00:44:13,208
Honestly, nothing.
1343
00:44:13,875 --> 00:44:14,083
Nothing.
1344
00:44:14,125 --> 00:44:14,333
Nothing.
1345
00:44:14,875 --> 00:44:17,000
If it works like when you're in VR and it
1346
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,166
glitches and it like, like slides the
1347
00:44:19,166 --> 00:44:19,625
image around.
1348
00:44:19,958 --> 00:44:21,458
No, no, that is.
1349
00:44:21,708 --> 00:44:22,416
That makes me sick.
1350
00:44:22,875 --> 00:44:23,166
Yeah.
1351
00:44:23,166 --> 00:44:26,166
That one is more of a, what is it called?
1352
00:44:26,208 --> 00:44:28,708
Sorry.
1353
00:44:28,708 --> 00:44:30,666
It's that's a little different.
1354
00:44:31,208 --> 00:44:33,208
What you probably want to do high tech
1355
00:44:33,208 --> 00:44:35,250
maybe is limit your FPS.
1356
00:44:35,500 --> 00:44:36,750
So you might want to adjust some of the
1357
00:44:36,750 --> 00:44:39,541
settings and then limit the FPS output
1358
00:44:39,833 --> 00:44:42,416
to be more stable at a lower, because if
1359
00:44:42,416 --> 00:44:43,791
it goes too high, you
1360
00:44:43,791 --> 00:44:44,500
could get it to blur
1361
00:44:44,500 --> 00:44:45,500
more.
1362
00:44:46,666 --> 00:44:47,583
I guess so you might want to.
1363
00:44:47,916 --> 00:44:49,500
Yeah, you might want to like, if it's on
1364
00:44:49,500 --> 00:44:51,666
the steam deck, you might want to limit
1365
00:44:51,666 --> 00:44:52,500
your FPS.
1366
00:44:53,791 --> 00:44:54,875
Don't get too greedy with that.
1367
00:44:55,750 --> 00:44:57,083
That's that's my opinion on it because
1368
00:44:57,083 --> 00:45:00,708
all it really does frame generation is it
1369
00:45:00,791 --> 00:45:03,083
just takes it can, you can kind of think
1370
00:45:03,083 --> 00:45:04,166
of it as doubling your FPS.
1371
00:45:04,916 --> 00:45:06,583
It just, it just takes the previous image
1372
00:45:06,583 --> 00:45:08,000
and kind of guesses a little bit how it's
1373
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:08,333
going to be.
1374
00:45:08,541 --> 00:45:10,333
And then just fills them in between.
1375
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:11,583
It's all really does.
1376
00:45:12,375 --> 00:45:15,208
It's not perfect, but for certain games
1377
00:45:15,208 --> 00:45:16,083
is I definitely
1378
00:45:16,083 --> 00:45:18,000
prefer it, but we don't, we
1379
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:19,291
don't need to beat this horse anymore.
1380
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:21,708
I think it's a, I think
1381
00:45:21,708 --> 00:45:22,291
it's a good technology.
1382
00:45:22,583 --> 00:45:24,416
I'm hoping that like, but then again,
1383
00:45:24,416 --> 00:45:25,291
it's very flawed and
1384
00:45:25,291 --> 00:45:26,083
but it's gotten better.
1385
00:45:26,083 --> 00:45:27,666
Like in the early days, it was garbage.
1386
00:45:30,166 --> 00:45:32,166
I'm very hopeful that it can maybe combat
1387
00:45:32,166 --> 00:45:33,291
some of these high prices though.
1388
00:45:33,333 --> 00:45:36,166
Cause if you want to be like sure out
1389
00:45:36,166 --> 00:45:37,458
like as good as
1390
00:45:37,458 --> 00:45:39,500
possible, like raw, like you
1391
00:45:39,500 --> 00:45:40,708
gardener, you're going to have to buy
1392
00:45:40,708 --> 00:45:43,000
like the best card
1393
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:44,041
oftentimes, depending on if
1394
00:45:44,041 --> 00:45:45,500
you're playing, depending on what type of
1395
00:45:45,500 --> 00:45:46,000
game you're playing.
1396
00:45:46,958 --> 00:45:49,708
But you guys play more indie games though
1397
00:45:49,708 --> 00:45:51,708
that tend to not be as power hungry.
1398
00:45:51,708 --> 00:45:55,250
So you don't even really need oftentimes
1399
00:45:55,250 --> 00:45:55,916
this type of stuff
1400
00:45:55,916 --> 00:45:56,708
that we're talking about.
1401
00:45:56,750 --> 00:46:00,000
So I have a 30 80 in my PC that I think
1402
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:00,750
I've might've played
1403
00:46:00,750 --> 00:46:02,166
like an hour or two of
1404
00:46:02,166 --> 00:46:05,125
games on, but I do, but I do enjoy the
1405
00:46:05,125 --> 00:46:06,416
occasional triple a game.
1406
00:46:07,041 --> 00:46:09,625
And, uh, I do like running my triple a
1407
00:46:09,625 --> 00:46:10,291
games at high
1408
00:46:10,291 --> 00:46:13,500
resolutions, high frame rates and
1409
00:46:13,500 --> 00:46:14,916
maximum graphical detail.
1410
00:46:15,166 --> 00:46:17,916
Sometimes I'm a PC gamer too.
1411
00:46:17,916 --> 00:46:19,416
Sometimes not in the
1412
00:46:19,416 --> 00:46:20,250
don't get it twisted.
1413
00:46:21,958 --> 00:46:25,041
I did definitely used to be chasing the
1414
00:46:25,041 --> 00:46:29,125
best, uh, fidelity that a game could do.
1415
00:46:29,125 --> 00:46:30,250
I like, okay.
1416
00:46:30,750 --> 00:46:31,958
If half-life three comes out, I
1417
00:46:31,958 --> 00:46:32,625
definitely probably would
1418
00:46:32,625 --> 00:46:34,291
be buying a new system to,
1419
00:46:35,041 --> 00:46:36,083
you know, gardener
1420
00:46:36,083 --> 00:46:37,625
understands buying a headset for that.
1421
00:46:37,625 --> 00:46:39,750
It's crazy for the half-life Alex, but I
1422
00:46:39,750 --> 00:46:41,500
might do that just cause there's certain
1423
00:46:41,500 --> 00:46:43,416
games that are so nostalgic that I'd have
1424
00:46:43,416 --> 00:46:45,833
to, but I'm starting to get to the point
1425
00:46:45,833 --> 00:46:46,666
where I'm like, I don't know
1426
00:46:46,666 --> 00:46:48,375
if I care so much about it.
1427
00:46:48,500 --> 00:46:49,708
We were getting to a place where things
1428
00:46:49,708 --> 00:46:52,000
look good enough at medium settings.
1429
00:46:52,833 --> 00:46:53,708
And that might be just
1430
00:46:53,708 --> 00:46:54,791
where I set for awhile.
1431
00:46:55,166 --> 00:46:58,541
If half-life three comes out and it
1432
00:46:58,541 --> 00:46:59,416
doesn't launch with
1433
00:46:59,416 --> 00:47:00,666
Fremont, I'm going to play it
1434
00:47:00,666 --> 00:47:01,666
on my steam deck and
1435
00:47:01,666 --> 00:47:02,500
I'm going to be fine.
1436
00:47:02,958 --> 00:47:03,541
I don't care.
1437
00:47:04,791 --> 00:47:05,958
I bet you that is going to
1438
00:47:05,958 --> 00:47:07,708
look great on the steam deck.
1439
00:47:07,708 --> 00:47:09,833
I bet you it's going to be like doom and
1440
00:47:09,833 --> 00:47:11,166
doom looks amazing on the steam deck.
1441
00:47:11,166 --> 00:47:13,125
It looks so good on the steam deck.
1442
00:47:14,041 --> 00:47:15,458
I've been able to, I've been able to turn
1443
00:47:15,458 --> 00:47:16,500
on ray tracing on a
1444
00:47:16,500 --> 00:47:17,458
steam deck and it works.
1445
00:47:17,541 --> 00:47:17,875
Yeah.
1446
00:47:18,416 --> 00:47:20,125
Have you guys tried it on a 4k TV?
1447
00:47:21,333 --> 00:47:22,166
Like from the resolution?
1448
00:47:23,458 --> 00:47:23,916
I have not.
1449
00:47:24,291 --> 00:47:24,750
I haven't needed.
1450
00:47:25,375 --> 00:47:26,666
Have I tried on, will it upscale?
1451
00:47:27,250 --> 00:47:30,375
So, uh, TVs have upscaling too kind of
1452
00:47:30,375 --> 00:47:34,208
built in, which helps, but it looked, I
1453
00:47:34,208 --> 00:47:34,583
can't remember if I
1454
00:47:34,583 --> 00:47:36,083
ran it at 4k on the TV.
1455
00:47:36,083 --> 00:47:36,875
I think I did.
1456
00:47:36,875 --> 00:47:38,041
I have to, I have to go back cause I have
1457
00:47:38,041 --> 00:47:41,708
videos of it, but even if it's not 4k,
1458
00:47:41,708 --> 00:47:43,750
but it upscales, it looked amazing.
1459
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:44,583
I was shocked.
1460
00:47:44,875 --> 00:47:45,500
I was like, this looks
1461
00:47:45,500 --> 00:47:47,250
like it, if it was on my PS4.
1462
00:47:47,916 --> 00:47:49,416
Like maybe even better.
1463
00:47:49,750 --> 00:47:51,958
I was so amazed by that game.
1464
00:47:52,666 --> 00:47:53,375
I sorry.
1465
00:47:53,375 --> 00:47:55,875
It's just like, I will simp for that game
1466
00:47:55,875 --> 00:47:57,375
every day with how well
1467
00:47:57,500 --> 00:47:59,083
they balance the performance.
1468
00:47:59,416 --> 00:47:59,875
Oh yeah.
1469
00:48:01,291 --> 00:48:01,500
Yeah.
1470
00:48:01,500 --> 00:48:03,333
It's a shame that no other developers do.
1471
00:48:03,750 --> 00:48:06,625
So speaking of, uh, valve and frame,
1472
00:48:06,625 --> 00:48:08,291
watch, do you think we'll see, do you
1473
00:48:08,291 --> 00:48:08,791
think we'll see the
1474
00:48:08,791 --> 00:48:10,791
Deckard or the frame at CES?
1475
00:48:12,916 --> 00:48:13,166
No.
1476
00:48:15,083 --> 00:48:16,250
Um, either.
1477
00:48:16,250 --> 00:48:16,416
No.
1478
00:48:17,375 --> 00:48:19,375
Maybe Deckard, but I doubt it.
1479
00:48:19,375 --> 00:48:22,833
Honestly, like, I doubt it.
1480
00:48:22,875 --> 00:48:24,791
The decker can't come soon enough.
1481
00:48:26,041 --> 00:48:27,833
Does valve even really do
1482
00:48:27,833 --> 00:48:29,208
anything at these shows?
1483
00:48:29,208 --> 00:48:29,708
I don't know if I've
1484
00:48:29,708 --> 00:48:31,208
ever seen them at CES.
1485
00:48:31,833 --> 00:48:33,291
I don't think they've been in CES.
1486
00:48:33,291 --> 00:48:34,500
I don't think they've been either, but
1487
00:48:34,500 --> 00:48:35,583
yeah, time to change it.
1488
00:48:35,583 --> 00:48:36,833
It's not like, it's not like they have
1489
00:48:36,833 --> 00:48:37,833
their own booth, right?
1490
00:48:37,833 --> 00:48:39,500
They're going to be there with Lenovo and
1491
00:48:39,500 --> 00:48:41,041
it's just going to be like one rep.
1492
00:48:41,666 --> 00:48:42,791
As far as I understand it.
1493
00:48:42,791 --> 00:48:43,666
Do we know that they're not
1494
00:48:43,666 --> 00:48:44,416
going to have the wrong booth?
1495
00:48:45,083 --> 00:48:46,500
I don't know that, but I haven't heard
1496
00:48:46,500 --> 00:48:47,250
that they're going to
1497
00:48:47,250 --> 00:48:48,000
have their own booth.
1498
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:49,375
We would probably, yeah, you're right.
1499
00:48:49,375 --> 00:48:51,208
Like, I think we would, if we, if they
1500
00:48:51,208 --> 00:48:52,708
had their own booth and we knew it,
1501
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,083
that'd be a massive story.
1502
00:48:55,541 --> 00:48:55,750
Yeah.
1503
00:48:56,833 --> 00:48:58,166
I would think they were gearing up for
1504
00:48:58,166 --> 00:48:59,458
something huge if they had their own
1505
00:48:59,458 --> 00:49:01,000
booth, but I just don't see it.
1506
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:02,791
But I bet they could do it.
1507
00:49:02,791 --> 00:49:03,458
They could have done it in
1508
00:49:03,458 --> 00:49:05,333
secret and no one could have.
1509
00:49:05,958 --> 00:49:06,166
Yeah.
1510
00:49:06,666 --> 00:49:07,458
I think it would have been leaked.
1511
00:49:08,375 --> 00:49:10,333
I think, well, they could always, uh,
1512
00:49:11,375 --> 00:49:12,500
Lenovo comes out and
1513
00:49:12,500 --> 00:49:13,375
then they just like still
1514
00:49:13,458 --> 00:49:14,541
the show at Lenovo's booth.
1515
00:49:14,750 --> 00:49:15,208
That'd be fun.
1516
00:49:15,416 --> 00:49:17,416
One kind of do the Lenovo comes out and
1517
00:49:17,416 --> 00:49:20,125
then, and then like the walls fall
1518
00:49:20,125 --> 00:49:22,125
backwards and then valves
1519
00:49:22,125 --> 00:49:23,791
logo rises from the floor.
1520
00:49:23,791 --> 00:49:24,458
And it's like, this is
1521
00:49:24,458 --> 00:49:26,666
actually the valve booth to be fair.
1522
00:49:26,916 --> 00:49:29,291
That'd be such good.
1523
00:49:29,708 --> 00:49:29,916
Lenovo,
1524
00:49:30,958 --> 00:49:31,833
valve eyes.
1525
00:49:32,041 --> 00:49:32,250
Lenovo.
1526
00:49:32,875 --> 00:49:33,416
Oh my God.
1527
00:49:33,791 --> 00:49:34,000
Yeah.
1528
00:49:34,625 --> 00:49:35,750
See, that's the type of
1529
00:49:35,750 --> 00:49:37,000
stuff I want nowadays.
1530
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,708
I, we need stuff like that to
1531
00:49:38,708 --> 00:49:39,833
make things more interesting.
1532
00:49:40,625 --> 00:49:42,041
Companies actually just having fun again.
1533
00:49:42,458 --> 00:49:44,333
Well, that's like what valve did with
1534
00:49:44,333 --> 00:49:45,958
their game development
1535
00:49:45,958 --> 00:49:47,833
for a long stretch of time.
1536
00:49:47,833 --> 00:49:49,958
Like they acquired mod developers and
1537
00:49:49,958 --> 00:49:51,833
they acquired like, I mean, you, you
1538
00:49:51,833 --> 00:49:53,333
mentioned an Arbacular drop, which was
1539
00:49:53,333 --> 00:49:55,458
like portals, original thing.
1540
00:49:55,458 --> 00:49:56,000
That's right.
1541
00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:56,416
Yeah.
1542
00:49:56,416 --> 00:49:59,375
Uh, like the tech demo, they valve went
1543
00:49:59,375 --> 00:50:02,250
to that college and saw the tech demo and
1544
00:50:02,250 --> 00:50:04,750
they were like, want a job and gave all
1545
00:50:04,750 --> 00:50:05,750
of their team that
1546
00:50:05,750 --> 00:50:07,000
made an Arbacular drop.
1547
00:50:07,500 --> 00:50:09,125
And it's like, dude, that's
1548
00:50:09,125 --> 00:50:10,166
how valve used to operate.
1549
00:50:11,416 --> 00:50:12,625
They actually, they
1550
00:50:12,625 --> 00:50:13,875
still do operate like that.
1551
00:50:13,875 --> 00:50:15,625
They just don't do it as much or we don't
1552
00:50:15,625 --> 00:50:16,958
hear about it as much too.
1553
00:50:16,958 --> 00:50:19,208
You know, they brought Campo Santo and
1554
00:50:19,208 --> 00:50:21,833
that was, they also hired the guys that
1555
00:50:21,833 --> 00:50:23,791
made Risk of Rain, um, Hopu or whatever.
1556
00:50:24,333 --> 00:50:24,541
Right.
1557
00:50:24,916 --> 00:50:25,125
Yep.
1558
00:50:25,875 --> 00:50:26,750
Uh, Firewatch or
1559
00:50:26,750 --> 00:50:27,833
whatever that one's called.
1560
00:50:28,041 --> 00:50:28,750
Campo Santo.
1561
00:50:29,041 --> 00:50:29,250
Yeah.
1562
00:50:30,541 --> 00:50:32,500
And I believe they made Half Life Alex.
1563
00:50:32,500 --> 00:50:32,916
Do they not?
1564
00:50:33,166 --> 00:50:33,708
They did.
1565
00:50:33,708 --> 00:50:33,916
Yeah.
1566
00:50:34,583 --> 00:50:34,916
Yeah.
1567
00:50:37,041 --> 00:50:37,333
Yeah.
1568
00:50:37,583 --> 00:50:37,791
Yeah.
1569
00:50:38,208 --> 00:50:38,541
Yep.
1570
00:50:38,541 --> 00:50:39,333
So they could buy Lenovo.
1571
00:50:39,708 --> 00:50:40,083
That'd be cool.
1572
00:50:40,791 --> 00:50:42,041
That would honestly.
1573
00:50:42,625 --> 00:50:44,000
Vow branded laptop ThinkPads.
1574
00:50:44,750 --> 00:50:45,541
Oh my God.
1575
00:50:46,291 --> 00:50:46,833
That's right.
1576
00:50:46,833 --> 00:50:47,458
They bought, they have,
1577
00:50:47,666 --> 00:50:48,750
oh gosh, I don't know.
1578
00:50:48,750 --> 00:50:50,416
They have, I think they know, I think
1579
00:50:50,416 --> 00:50:51,916
they would also own IBM too.
1580
00:50:51,916 --> 00:50:52,750
Cause, uh, don't they,
1581
00:50:52,750 --> 00:50:54,250
doesn't Lenovo own IBM now?
1582
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:56,125
They own the ThinkPad series.
1583
00:50:56,500 --> 00:50:58,583
So IBM, I think, uh, Jettison, some of
1584
00:50:58,583 --> 00:51:00,916
their IP, uh, some of their branding.
1585
00:51:01,333 --> 00:51:01,541
Yeah.
1586
00:51:01,875 --> 00:51:02,458
Lenovo bought it up.
1587
00:51:02,708 --> 00:51:04,333
What does, what does
1588
00:51:04,333 --> 00:51:05,541
IBM even do these days?
1589
00:51:05,791 --> 00:51:06,416
Just like super
1590
00:51:06,416 --> 00:51:09,875
computers with AI in them?
1591
00:51:10,375 --> 00:51:10,583
Yes.
1592
00:51:10,666 --> 00:51:12,500
They make a, they
1593
00:51:12,500 --> 00:51:13,791
build Jeopardy contestants.
1594
00:51:14,750 --> 00:51:15,208
God business.
1595
00:51:15,625 --> 00:51:16,041
Damn it.
1596
00:51:16,458 --> 00:51:17,541
Oh my gosh.
1597
00:51:17,916 --> 00:51:18,250
That's funny.
1598
00:51:19,791 --> 00:51:22,833
So, uh, can we, can we do it?
1599
00:51:22,833 --> 00:51:24,083
Can we finally get into this?
1600
00:51:24,083 --> 00:51:24,500
Can we, yes.
1601
00:51:25,500 --> 00:51:27,750
Half Life is hashtag valve
1602
00:51:27,750 --> 00:51:30,458
hashtag half life hashtag G man.
1603
00:51:30,458 --> 00:51:32,833
Hashtag 20, 25.
1604
00:51:33,833 --> 00:51:36,583
Our good friend, the voice actor for the
1605
00:51:36,583 --> 00:51:38,291
G man, Mike Shapiro or
1606
00:51:38,333 --> 00:51:40,375
Shapiro, actually, um, uh,
1607
00:51:40,375 --> 00:51:42,125
posted a mysterious video.
1608
00:51:42,583 --> 00:51:43,958
It's a 30 second video.
1609
00:51:43,958 --> 00:51:47,500
I was talking about a new year and I
1610
00:51:47,500 --> 00:51:50,583
don't know what the background is, but he
1611
00:51:50,583 --> 00:51:51,166
hasn't posted
1612
00:51:51,166 --> 00:51:52,666
anything in like five years.
1613
00:51:52,916 --> 00:51:53,375
Yeah.
1614
00:51:54,500 --> 00:51:56,416
And the half, it's a painting.
1615
00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:57,208
Yeah.
1616
00:51:57,583 --> 00:51:59,666
We don't know what's going on though.
1617
00:51:59,666 --> 00:52:00,875
And basically, well, there's a painting
1618
00:52:00,875 --> 00:52:02,916
and then there's a rumors of, I think
1619
00:52:02,958 --> 00:52:06,166
the orange in it is a color that is how,
1620
00:52:06,416 --> 00:52:08,333
like it's some, we go to conspiracy
1621
00:52:08,500 --> 00:52:11,166
theories, man, they confirmed half life
1622
00:52:11,166 --> 00:52:13,125
three through the color palette on it.
1623
00:52:13,458 --> 00:52:15,833
You know, people they'll, they'll find
1624
00:52:15,833 --> 00:52:18,666
fun stuff, but so I posted a video about
1625
00:52:18,708 --> 00:52:20,916
this and I mentioned that I didn't know
1626
00:52:20,916 --> 00:52:23,166
what that, that painting was.
1627
00:52:23,166 --> 00:52:24,291
Do you know what the painting is?
1628
00:52:26,458 --> 00:52:28,041
I've read about it multiple times and I
1629
00:52:28,041 --> 00:52:28,583
still don't fully
1630
00:52:28,583 --> 00:52:29,875
like remember what it is.
1631
00:52:30,208 --> 00:52:32,416
So Mike Shapiro is
1632
00:52:32,416 --> 00:52:34,458
actually a musician as well.
1633
00:52:34,791 --> 00:52:38,083
And so the painting in this video is the
1634
00:52:38,083 --> 00:52:40,000
album art of his most recent album.
1635
00:52:40,208 --> 00:52:41,041
That's what it is.
1636
00:52:41,041 --> 00:52:41,250
Yeah.
1637
00:52:41,416 --> 00:52:45,333
Oh, which doesn't seem valve related, but
1638
00:52:45,333 --> 00:52:47,958
the fact that he's using, he's draw, he
1639
00:52:48,041 --> 00:52:49,583
starts off sounding kind of like Barney
1640
00:52:49,583 --> 00:52:52,666
and then he kind of goes into being the
1641
00:52:52,666 --> 00:52:56,333
G man and boy, I want to
1642
00:52:56,333 --> 00:52:57,708
know your take on this James.
1643
00:52:57,750 --> 00:53:00,666
Cause I'm this got me so excited.
1644
00:53:00,666 --> 00:53:02,500
My, my Spidey sense was tingling.
1645
00:53:03,750 --> 00:53:06,500
As always, uh, I, you were, you even had
1646
00:53:06,500 --> 00:53:09,000
more like copium than me, like, like
1647
00:53:09,500 --> 00:53:10,583
during the game awards.
1648
00:53:10,875 --> 00:53:11,083
Yeah.
1649
00:53:11,833 --> 00:53:16,583
For me, I think half life, I think a half
1650
00:53:16,583 --> 00:53:18,500
life games come in this year, whether or
1651
00:53:18,500 --> 00:53:21,083
not it's half life three, or if it's like
1652
00:53:21,083 --> 00:53:22,666
a half life game to support maybe the
1653
00:53:22,708 --> 00:53:24,333
decker or maybe some other project that
1654
00:53:24,333 --> 00:53:25,750
they're releasing, because they they'll
1655
00:53:25,750 --> 00:53:26,416
do that obviously
1656
00:53:26,416 --> 00:53:27,333
wake with the steam deck.
1657
00:53:27,333 --> 00:53:30,083
They did a portal ask game.
1658
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:32,416
They could be doing that too with this
1659
00:53:32,416 --> 00:53:34,041
once again, I don't care.
1660
00:53:34,375 --> 00:53:36,500
And if he's getting involved, G man's
1661
00:53:36,500 --> 00:53:38,166
coming back means we're probably going to
1662
00:53:38,166 --> 00:53:39,750
be getting, you know, a full, some type
1663
00:53:39,750 --> 00:53:40,708
of full fledged half
1664
00:53:40,708 --> 00:53:42,416
life game, whether it's
1665
00:53:42,416 --> 00:53:44,041
announced this year or comes out this
1666
00:53:44,041 --> 00:53:44,750
year, I would be
1667
00:53:44,750 --> 00:53:46,083
shocked if it didn't come out
1668
00:53:46,083 --> 00:53:49,583
this year though, um, with how valve has
1669
00:53:49,583 --> 00:53:50,333
been doing things lately.
1670
00:53:51,041 --> 00:53:56,083
So my hope is like, my, my, my extreme
1671
00:53:56,083 --> 00:53:57,416
hope is that this is halfway three
1672
00:53:57,416 --> 00:53:59,333
confirmed I've said this multiple times
1673
00:53:59,333 --> 00:53:59,958
over the years though.
1674
00:53:59,958 --> 00:54:04,500
So it seems so like dead to me to say it,
1675
00:54:04,500 --> 00:54:06,291
but I can't have my three confirmed, but
1676
00:54:06,833 --> 00:54:07,625
they could also do half
1677
00:54:07,625 --> 00:54:09,041
life for do some other.
1678
00:54:09,666 --> 00:54:10,916
All I know is we're going to be getting
1679
00:54:10,916 --> 00:54:12,166
another iteration in the series.
1680
00:54:12,416 --> 00:54:13,333
That's what I'm hoping for.
1681
00:54:13,750 --> 00:54:15,166
I really do think this, and I think we
1682
00:54:15,166 --> 00:54:16,208
have a lot of leaks because there's
1683
00:54:16,208 --> 00:54:16,916
another leak.
1684
00:54:16,916 --> 00:54:18,166
I don't know if you guys saw it.
1685
00:54:18,458 --> 00:54:19,458
No, we didn't.
1686
00:54:19,833 --> 00:54:20,708
I didn't.
1687
00:54:20,708 --> 00:54:24,500
Is it Gabe, Gabe follower mentioned that
1688
00:54:24,500 --> 00:54:26,625
half life, a half life game is in play
1689
00:54:26,625 --> 00:54:28,166
test with friends and family.
1690
00:54:28,625 --> 00:54:29,666
It's an active play
1691
00:54:29,666 --> 00:54:30,875
testing is what they call it.
1692
00:54:31,666 --> 00:54:33,583
The last stage of
1693
00:54:33,583 --> 00:54:35,291
development for a valve game.
1694
00:54:36,750 --> 00:54:41,333
But this, when, when a half life, Alex
1695
00:54:41,333 --> 00:54:43,875
went into active play testing, they ended
1696
00:54:43,875 --> 00:54:46,166
up scrapping the entire story and
1697
00:54:46,166 --> 00:54:49,625
rewriting it, um, using the, all of the
1698
00:54:49,708 --> 00:54:50,791
levels and assets they
1699
00:54:50,791 --> 00:54:51,583
had, that they had built.
1700
00:54:52,166 --> 00:54:53,791
And it took them another year and a half
1701
00:54:53,791 --> 00:54:56,458
from active play test to final release.
1702
00:54:57,333 --> 00:55:01,041
So I am very, I, I, I would be James.
1703
00:55:01,041 --> 00:55:02,541
I want this to be a thing
1704
00:55:02,541 --> 00:55:04,125
and I want it to be this year.
1705
00:55:04,666 --> 00:55:06,291
If it is this year, it's
1706
00:55:06,291 --> 00:55:08,291
going to be like late, I think.
1707
00:55:08,708 --> 00:55:09,875
And I don't think we're going to hear
1708
00:55:09,875 --> 00:55:11,958
anything official until summer.
1709
00:55:12,125 --> 00:55:14,125
At least that's, that's where
1710
00:55:14,125 --> 00:55:15,791
my head's at on this summer.
1711
00:55:15,791 --> 00:55:19,375
Could be doubt it.
1712
00:55:19,375 --> 00:55:21,500
I don't valve announces
1713
00:55:21,500 --> 00:55:23,416
games now with a tweet.
1714
00:55:24,041 --> 00:55:25,083
They don't, they like,
1715
00:55:25,083 --> 00:55:26,375
they'll, they'll release a trailer.
1716
00:55:26,375 --> 00:55:27,208
They'll just drop a trailer.
1717
00:55:27,208 --> 00:55:28,041
They don't do like the
1718
00:55:28,041 --> 00:55:30,000
events like half life.
1719
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:31,333
Alex, I mean, I think
1720
00:55:31,333 --> 00:55:32,625
when, uh, what was it?
1721
00:55:32,625 --> 00:55:34,458
What's the, the, the card game, the DOTA
1722
00:55:34,458 --> 00:55:37,791
card game when that, uh, was released
1723
00:55:37,958 --> 00:55:40,125
on stage and the reaction was so
1724
00:55:40,125 --> 00:55:41,666
overwhelmingly negative
1725
00:55:41,666 --> 00:55:43,625
valve kind of swore that off.
1726
00:55:43,875 --> 00:55:44,208
Yeah.
1727
00:55:44,875 --> 00:55:45,208
Okay.
1728
00:55:45,208 --> 00:55:46,916
But to be fair though, that
1729
00:55:46,916 --> 00:55:49,000
was a, no one wanted a card game.
1730
00:55:49,208 --> 00:55:50,625
If it was half life three, I think that
1731
00:55:50,625 --> 00:55:51,083
people would have
1732
00:55:51,083 --> 00:55:53,208
erupted in, uh, tears of joy.
1733
00:55:53,958 --> 00:55:54,166
Yeah.
1734
00:55:54,708 --> 00:55:56,500
I think that's part of the problem was
1735
00:55:56,500 --> 00:55:58,333
that they came out with something that
1736
00:55:58,666 --> 00:55:59,583
everyone wants more
1737
00:55:59,583 --> 00:56:01,375
portal, more half life.
1738
00:56:01,708 --> 00:56:03,083
They'll even take more left for dead.
1739
00:56:03,708 --> 00:56:05,458
Um, and new, and new IPs are fine too.
1740
00:56:05,500 --> 00:56:07,458
But even for me, like Dota, every time I
1741
00:56:07,458 --> 00:56:08,333
hear valve mentioned
1742
00:56:08,333 --> 00:56:09,500
Dota, I get disappointed.
1743
00:56:10,333 --> 00:56:11,916
I am not a Dota fan.
1744
00:56:12,541 --> 00:56:14,750
Uh, Dota two, like the original Dota was
1745
00:56:14,750 --> 00:56:16,166
fun on with Warcraft
1746
00:56:16,166 --> 00:56:17,500
three, but I actually
1747
00:56:17,500 --> 00:56:19,041
preferred League of Legends split off on
1748
00:56:19,041 --> 00:56:20,416
all that and Dota just
1749
00:56:20,416 --> 00:56:21,333
isn't like Dota two is
1750
00:56:21,333 --> 00:56:23,666
not really, I don't really care for it.
1751
00:56:23,666 --> 00:56:24,958
Dota does nothing for me either.
1752
00:56:25,333 --> 00:56:25,708
Yeah.
1753
00:56:26,500 --> 00:56:28,125
So whenever time they, they mentioned
1754
00:56:28,125 --> 00:56:28,750
stuff like that, I
1755
00:56:28,750 --> 00:56:29,666
get super disappointed.
1756
00:56:30,166 --> 00:56:31,791
I understand, but I'm just
1757
00:56:31,791 --> 00:56:33,791
like, this is not my jam.
1758
00:56:34,041 --> 00:56:35,000
I want something else.
1759
00:56:35,250 --> 00:56:37,375
You can't bad mouth Gabe's baby.
1760
00:56:37,375 --> 00:56:38,583
That's his most played game.
1761
00:56:39,333 --> 00:56:39,541
Yeah.
1762
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:43,166
That can be the most he's going to, uh,
1763
00:56:43,291 --> 00:56:44,583
he's going to, uh, he's
1764
00:56:44,583 --> 00:56:45,750
going to curse your, you
1765
00:56:45,750 --> 00:56:46,500
and your household
1766
00:56:46,500 --> 00:56:47,416
and your steam account.
1767
00:56:49,041 --> 00:56:50,000
Well, I mean, I'm not
1768
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:50,833
saying it's a bad game.
1769
00:56:50,833 --> 00:56:52,041
I don't care for it.
1770
00:56:52,708 --> 00:56:54,666
And I'm glad that like people love it
1771
00:56:54,666 --> 00:56:56,000
because the people do love it.
1772
00:56:56,166 --> 00:56:58,333
Um, I just, it's like, I got too much
1773
00:56:58,333 --> 00:56:59,083
into League of Legends
1774
00:56:59,083 --> 00:57:00,000
and that's kind of like,
1775
00:57:00,250 --> 00:57:01,125
if I play those types of
1776
00:57:01,125 --> 00:57:01,916
games, it's League of Legends.
1777
00:57:02,791 --> 00:57:08,500
Um, but yeah, I don't know.
1778
00:57:09,041 --> 00:57:11,291
Like it gets, it's still disappointing.
1779
00:57:11,291 --> 00:57:13,666
And I, I know that like Gabe likes the
1780
00:57:13,666 --> 00:57:17,375
other, uh, IPs, but
1781
00:57:17,375 --> 00:57:19,166
the problem lies with, I
1782
00:57:19,166 --> 00:57:20,750
know the lot of them are worried that
1783
00:57:20,750 --> 00:57:24,000
like Dota does well and it has a good
1784
00:57:24,041 --> 00:57:27,041
reputation for them, but it's not like
1785
00:57:27,041 --> 00:57:28,083
half-life status
1786
00:57:28,083 --> 00:57:30,166
reputation is not the same
1787
00:57:30,208 --> 00:57:31,000
thing, right?
1788
00:57:31,750 --> 00:57:35,083
Half-life and portal have just like the,
1789
00:57:35,083 --> 00:57:37,458
and especially half-life Alex somehow
1790
00:57:37,541 --> 00:57:40,125
raised the bar even again, like, which is
1791
00:57:40,125 --> 00:57:41,041
the title of the
1792
00:57:41,041 --> 00:57:42,000
book, you know, raise the
1793
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:43,875
bar, like it's rate.
1794
00:57:43,875 --> 00:57:45,333
Like they raised the bar every time they
1795
00:57:45,333 --> 00:57:46,958
released a new single player game.
1796
00:57:46,958 --> 00:57:48,250
And that's can be very daunting.
1797
00:57:48,833 --> 00:57:51,291
And I couldn't imagine how many
1798
00:57:51,291 --> 00:57:53,000
anti-anxiety like meds
1799
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:53,791
they have to be taking
1800
00:57:54,041 --> 00:57:56,583
to make a game like half-life three.
1801
00:57:57,666 --> 00:57:59,291
So I have two questions.
1802
00:58:00,375 --> 00:58:03,125
Number one, do you really think that it
1803
00:58:03,125 --> 00:58:05,958
will be, uh, if half-life three releases,
1804
00:58:05,958 --> 00:58:07,000
it'll be a VR game?
1805
00:58:07,500 --> 00:58:09,166
Like if it's like for Deckard, do you
1806
00:58:09,166 --> 00:58:10,208
think that would be a thing?
1807
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:11,250
Yeah.
1808
00:58:12,500 --> 00:58:15,125
Sorry, go for high tech.
1809
00:58:16,041 --> 00:58:19,708
I think it could be VR optional.
1810
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:21,541
Like you can play the game in VR.
1811
00:58:22,500 --> 00:58:24,875
Uh, I don't know.
1812
00:58:24,875 --> 00:58:28,791
I, I honestly, we don't know.
1813
00:58:28,916 --> 00:58:30,166
Like half-life Alex
1814
00:58:30,166 --> 00:58:31,208
could be its own series.
1815
00:58:31,208 --> 00:58:32,291
That's just VR related.
1816
00:58:32,291 --> 00:58:34,041
So half-life Alex two could be coming out
1817
00:58:34,041 --> 00:58:36,500
that has a specific to VR.
1818
00:58:37,250 --> 00:58:38,583
I could see them go on that route and
1819
00:58:38,583 --> 00:58:40,916
then sticking with half-life being maybe
1820
00:58:41,291 --> 00:58:42,333
a handheld first.
1821
00:58:42,541 --> 00:58:45,125
Honestly, I could see it being, um,
1822
00:58:45,458 --> 00:58:47,750
flagships with like, with their, um,
1823
00:58:47,750 --> 00:58:51,583
hardware, so it's going to be designed to
1824
00:58:51,583 --> 00:58:53,166
work with maybe the steam deck or the
1825
00:58:53,166 --> 00:58:54,041
steam controller to
1826
00:58:54,041 --> 00:58:56,000
really well and the steam deck.
1827
00:58:57,375 --> 00:58:59,958
That's one thing I could probably, I bet
1828
00:58:59,958 --> 00:59:03,416
all my money on is that half-life will
1829
00:59:03,416 --> 00:59:06,666
work really well on some
1830
00:59:06,666 --> 00:59:08,666
type of valve hardware.
1831
00:59:09,291 --> 00:59:09,500
Yeah.
1832
00:59:09,708 --> 00:59:10,291
And that's probably
1833
00:59:10,291 --> 00:59:10,875
what they're targeting.
1834
00:59:11,208 --> 00:59:14,541
And there's some cool physics things that
1835
00:59:14,541 --> 00:59:15,958
they could probably be doing too with the
1836
00:59:15,958 --> 00:59:16,333
gyro.
1837
00:59:16,541 --> 00:59:17,791
I wouldn't be surprised if they're also
1838
00:59:17,791 --> 00:59:19,291
requiring that with their handheld, like
1839
00:59:19,291 --> 00:59:20,333
with the controllers, third party
1840
00:59:20,333 --> 00:59:21,291
controllers and stuff like that.
1841
00:59:21,833 --> 00:59:23,375
I could see them playing off that
1842
00:59:23,375 --> 00:59:24,750
because, um, strong
1843
00:59:24,750 --> 00:59:25,791
rumors are that they have
1844
00:59:26,041 --> 00:59:28,791
some pretty advanced physics
1845
00:59:28,791 --> 00:59:30,708
that they've been working on.
1846
00:59:30,958 --> 00:59:33,166
And I we've, we've heard of swarming and
1847
00:59:33,166 --> 00:59:34,916
stuff like that in half-life threes
1848
00:59:35,375 --> 00:59:36,833
previous before half-life Alex.
1849
00:59:36,833 --> 00:59:38,375
They never used any of that swarming, but
1850
00:59:38,375 --> 00:59:39,708
they're swarming tech that you can look
1851
00:59:40,041 --> 00:59:41,583
at, um, a great channel to
1852
00:59:41,583 --> 00:59:43,166
follow is, uh, Tyler McVicker.
1853
00:59:43,625 --> 00:59:45,291
He does a ton of deep
1854
00:59:45,291 --> 00:59:46,500
diving into code and all that.
1855
00:59:47,500 --> 00:59:50,291
Um, and there was a swarming mechanic at
1856
00:59:50,291 --> 00:59:52,458
one point, which sounds like it was very
1857
00:59:52,500 --> 00:59:54,541
physics heavy and I don't know why they
1858
00:59:54,541 --> 00:59:55,250
didn't continue that.
1859
00:59:55,458 --> 00:59:56,250
There must've been some type of
1860
00:59:56,250 --> 00:59:57,375
limitation and I have a
1861
00:59:57,375 --> 00:59:58,583
feeling that they might've
1862
00:59:59,166 --> 01:00:00,416
overcome that by now.
1863
01:00:01,333 --> 01:00:01,541
Yeah.
1864
01:00:02,875 --> 01:00:04,416
The other question is, do you think we'll
1865
01:00:04,416 --> 01:00:06,666
see half-life three before we see an
1866
01:00:06,666 --> 01:00:07,916
official deadlock release?
1867
01:00:10,541 --> 01:00:10,833
No.
1868
01:00:12,458 --> 01:00:14,375
Yeah, I don't know if half-life or I
1869
01:00:14,375 --> 01:00:16,000
don't know if deadlock will officially
1870
01:00:16,208 --> 01:00:18,500
release in a official manner.
1871
01:00:18,500 --> 01:00:19,083
I think it's going to
1872
01:00:19,083 --> 01:00:20,125
probably be a slow rollout.
1873
01:00:20,791 --> 01:00:21,000
Okay.
1874
01:00:21,875 --> 01:00:23,125
Um, but I don't know.
1875
01:00:23,125 --> 01:00:23,500
I could be wrong.
1876
01:00:23,541 --> 01:00:25,750
Like it is definitely very like early
1877
01:00:25,750 --> 01:00:27,250
days of deadlock, even though it plays
1878
01:00:27,291 --> 01:00:29,500
really well, like they're, they, like a
1879
01:00:29,500 --> 01:00:30,416
couple of months ago, they didn't even
1880
01:00:30,458 --> 01:00:32,750
have assets, like true assets for some of
1881
01:00:32,750 --> 01:00:34,458
their icons and stuff like that.
1882
01:00:35,541 --> 01:00:37,750
I don't, I have a feeling it's two
1883
01:00:37,750 --> 01:00:39,416
different teams and then I don't know.
1884
01:00:41,041 --> 01:00:41,750
Deadlock is probably
1885
01:00:41,750 --> 01:00:42,708
going to be one of those.
1886
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:44,500
It could take years before they feel
1887
01:00:44,500 --> 01:00:46,083
comfortable releasing it.
1888
01:00:46,375 --> 01:00:46,541
Hmm.
1889
01:00:47,041 --> 01:00:47,250
Okay.
1890
01:00:47,500 --> 01:00:51,666
So that's my take on it.
1891
01:00:52,708 --> 01:00:53,166
I don't know.
1892
01:00:54,500 --> 01:00:57,208
Oh, they can, they can
1893
01:00:57,208 --> 01:00:58,708
release it as like an internal beta.
1894
01:00:58,708 --> 01:01:00,250
They, that is an option.
1895
01:01:02,583 --> 01:01:03,250
Internal beta.
1896
01:01:03,583 --> 01:01:05,333
What keep an early access forever.
1897
01:01:06,041 --> 01:01:08,166
Of deadlock for deadlock.
1898
01:01:08,166 --> 01:01:08,583
For deadlock.
1899
01:01:08,583 --> 01:01:08,833
Yeah.
1900
01:01:08,833 --> 01:01:09,041
Sorry.
1901
01:01:09,416 --> 01:01:10,500
Is it not open, but,
1902
01:01:10,500 --> 01:01:11,750
uh, is it not open yet?
1903
01:01:12,333 --> 01:01:13,208
Is it not public still
1904
01:01:13,208 --> 01:01:15,458
invite only, but I think of this.
1905
01:01:15,458 --> 01:01:16,166
Oh, is it?
1906
01:01:16,208 --> 01:01:17,375
Yeah, I believe so.
1907
01:01:17,375 --> 01:01:17,541
Yes.
1908
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:19,708
At this point, I think
1909
01:01:19,708 --> 01:01:20,833
you could find someone.
1910
01:01:21,166 --> 01:01:22,041
It's really sad if you
1911
01:01:22,041 --> 01:01:22,791
couldn't find someone.
1912
01:01:22,875 --> 01:01:24,166
That means you need to maybe find some
1913
01:01:24,166 --> 01:01:26,750
more friends, but yeah.
1914
01:01:26,791 --> 01:01:27,083
Yeah.
1915
01:01:27,083 --> 01:01:30,791
I, I honestly, I want to see what their
1916
01:01:30,791 --> 01:01:31,583
algorithms, I want to
1917
01:01:31,583 --> 01:01:32,250
see the data on that.
1918
01:01:32,250 --> 01:01:33,250
I want to see how it's
1919
01:01:33,250 --> 01:01:35,166
like the bacon thing, right?
1920
01:01:35,166 --> 01:01:37,583
How many, uh, levels are you
1921
01:01:37,583 --> 01:01:39,291
separated from a Kevin bacon?
1922
01:01:39,708 --> 01:01:40,875
I want to know how many levels I am
1923
01:01:40,875 --> 01:01:42,000
separated from Gabe Newell.
1924
01:01:42,291 --> 01:01:44,083
Like he, I want to know if he was the
1925
01:01:44,083 --> 01:01:45,666
main invite, he invited his employees.
1926
01:01:46,166 --> 01:01:47,750
And then Dave, in fact, I want to know
1927
01:01:47,750 --> 01:01:49,041
how far away I am from him.
1928
01:01:49,333 --> 01:01:50,125
That's what I want.
1929
01:01:50,125 --> 01:01:51,000
That would be a cool one.
1930
01:01:51,666 --> 01:01:52,708
That's data that I
1931
01:01:52,708 --> 01:01:54,041
guarantee you they have.
1932
01:01:54,458 --> 01:01:56,750
Like they can pull that data for sure.
1933
01:01:57,166 --> 01:01:58,083
So now, yeah, here's a
1934
01:01:58,083 --> 01:01:58,875
fun little hypothetical.
1935
01:01:59,666 --> 01:02:02,833
If valve asked any one of you guys, if
1936
01:02:02,833 --> 01:02:03,666
valve said that they
1937
01:02:03,666 --> 01:02:04,375
were having a special
1938
01:02:04,375 --> 01:02:07,750
event for a new hardware next week, and
1939
01:02:07,750 --> 01:02:10,166
they asked you, and they said that they
1940
01:02:10,208 --> 01:02:13,041
would fund you flying out to their
1941
01:02:13,041 --> 01:02:15,166
headquarters and like hotels and like.
1942
01:02:15,333 --> 01:02:15,791
Whatnot.
1943
01:02:16,666 --> 01:02:17,625
Would you drop everything
1944
01:02:17,625 --> 01:02:19,500
this, this next week to do it?
1945
01:02:19,958 --> 01:02:20,291
Absolutely.
1946
01:02:20,541 --> 01:02:22,875
I hear, okay.
1947
01:02:22,875 --> 01:02:23,500
Here's the thing.
1948
01:02:24,125 --> 01:02:28,416
Of course, of course, even if they didn't
1949
01:02:28,416 --> 01:02:31,083
invite me, I would probably drop
1950
01:02:31,125 --> 01:02:32,500
everything and find a way to get there
1951
01:02:32,500 --> 01:02:33,500
and pay for it myself
1952
01:02:33,500 --> 01:02:35,541
and figure something out.
1953
01:02:35,750 --> 01:02:36,000
Yeah.
1954
01:02:36,625 --> 01:02:38,916
You can, you can, uh, you can see us.
1955
01:02:39,583 --> 01:02:41,750
If this is CS, if it's Washington, I feel
1956
01:02:41,750 --> 01:02:43,833
like, like CS says, I can at least get in
1957
01:02:43,833 --> 01:02:44,500
there and at least talk to
1958
01:02:44,500 --> 01:02:46,125
people that witnessed it.
1959
01:02:46,125 --> 01:02:47,666
If they, if it's close behind closed
1960
01:02:47,666 --> 01:02:48,208
doors, but I can
1961
01:02:48,208 --> 01:02:49,458
still be at the CS event.
1962
01:02:50,458 --> 01:02:52,000
Washington, that's going to be, that's,
1963
01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:52,458
that's a whole other
1964
01:02:52,458 --> 01:02:53,333
security issue thing.
1965
01:02:54,458 --> 01:02:56,333
So, uh, I have a
1966
01:02:56,333 --> 01:02:57,625
secret I kept from you guys.
1967
01:02:58,166 --> 01:03:02,291
I got invited to CS on like a most
1968
01:03:02,291 --> 01:03:03,791
expenses paid thing
1969
01:03:03,791 --> 01:03:06,458
and I was going to go,
1970
01:03:06,916 --> 01:03:09,166
but then I got sick and I didn't know
1971
01:03:09,166 --> 01:03:10,000
when I was going to recover.
1972
01:03:10,291 --> 01:03:12,125
So I decided not to go.
1973
01:03:12,291 --> 01:03:15,541
Hey, dude, I really wanted to go too.
1974
01:03:15,625 --> 01:03:18,250
I was so excited and then, and then I
1975
01:03:18,250 --> 01:03:20,083
went to Christmas and
1976
01:03:20,083 --> 01:03:21,375
freaking got sick with
1977
01:03:21,375 --> 01:03:21,916
COVID.
1978
01:03:21,916 --> 01:03:23,125
I was like, God damn.
1979
01:03:23,541 --> 01:03:24,500
Can you disclose who
1980
01:03:24,500 --> 01:03:27,541
like, no, no, I can't.
1981
01:03:27,791 --> 01:03:30,000
Can you be like, Oh, I'm better now.
1982
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:30,583
Can I go now?
1983
01:03:31,416 --> 01:03:32,416
I sent an email.
1984
01:03:33,041 --> 01:03:35,500
I will see if I can actually go, but I
1985
01:03:35,500 --> 01:03:37,208
don't, I think it's too awesome.
1986
01:03:37,458 --> 01:03:41,583
If God, I had to pay for my hotel and
1987
01:03:41,583 --> 01:03:44,500
because I didn't buy the hotel.
1988
01:03:44,625 --> 01:03:45,416
Cause I got sick.
1989
01:03:45,416 --> 01:03:47,166
Like when I was going to buy it, the
1990
01:03:47,166 --> 01:03:48,541
prices are a lot higher now.
1991
01:03:48,541 --> 01:03:49,250
So I don't know if I'll
1992
01:03:49,250 --> 01:03:50,083
be able to do it anyway.
1993
01:03:50,083 --> 01:03:51,541
They're a lot higher, but if you don't
1994
01:03:51,541 --> 01:03:53,000
mind walking, you can
1995
01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:54,958
get or, uh, take an Uber.
1996
01:03:54,958 --> 01:03:57,541
You can just stay further away and just,
1997
01:03:57,541 --> 01:03:58,916
I wouldn't do Airbnb.
1998
01:03:59,541 --> 01:04:02,458
I do, I do, uh, 20
1999
01:04:02,458 --> 01:04:03,666
minutes away from the event.
2000
01:04:03,875 --> 01:04:06,375
Probably maybe 30 and Uber in.
2001
01:04:06,500 --> 01:04:08,416
It's like on like Vegas strip.
2002
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:10,833
I believe it is.
2003
01:04:10,833 --> 01:04:11,000
Yeah.
2004
01:04:11,500 --> 01:04:13,125
Um, there's a couple of events.
2005
01:04:13,375 --> 01:04:15,708
It is across a whole
2006
01:04:15,708 --> 01:04:16,666
bunch of different buildings.
2007
01:04:16,958 --> 01:04:18,000
Like, so it's not just
2008
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:19,291
in one convention center.
2009
01:04:20,250 --> 01:04:22,000
There's a, there's a couple of really big
2010
01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:23,416
convention centers that have connecting
2011
01:04:23,833 --> 01:04:24,875
things I'm trying to remember.
2012
01:04:26,375 --> 01:04:27,250
You could stay in one
2013
01:04:27,250 --> 01:04:28,333
of those casino resorts.
2014
01:04:29,083 --> 01:04:30,458
You know, you don't have to gamble.
2015
01:04:31,125 --> 01:04:33,000
It's optional, but you can.
2016
01:04:33,750 --> 01:04:34,000
Yeah.
2017
01:04:34,708 --> 01:04:35,333
You can try to gamble
2018
01:04:35,333 --> 01:04:36,791
to make up your CS funds.
2019
01:04:37,666 --> 01:04:38,750
Oh my gosh.
2020
01:04:40,250 --> 01:04:42,000
I have really good luck when I'm not
2021
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:42,791
trying and really,
2022
01:04:43,083 --> 01:04:44,208
really bad luck when I am
2023
01:04:44,208 --> 01:04:44,500
trying.
2024
01:04:44,875 --> 01:04:46,333
So I avoided gambling.
2025
01:04:47,166 --> 01:04:47,416
Oh yeah.
2026
01:04:47,416 --> 01:04:50,083
That's you stay at the state.
2027
01:04:50,375 --> 01:04:51,583
Uh, those, uh, hotels
2028
01:04:51,583 --> 01:04:54,250
have hidden deals too.
2029
01:04:54,250 --> 01:04:56,916
Sometimes you can find that I'm jealous.
2030
01:04:56,916 --> 01:04:59,208
Like, like I said, I, I was this close,
2031
01:04:59,208 --> 01:05:00,208
but I just was like,
2032
01:05:00,208 --> 01:05:01,250
well, what if I go and
2033
01:05:01,250 --> 01:05:01,875
there's nothing really
2034
01:05:01,875 --> 01:05:03,291
that interesting at CES?
2035
01:05:03,791 --> 01:05:05,375
Mm-hmm.
2036
01:05:06,666 --> 01:05:08,583
To be honest, I don't know.
2037
01:05:09,125 --> 01:05:10,875
Well, I've not seen enough for you.
2038
01:05:11,958 --> 01:05:14,791
It is, but like if it's just a Lenovo
2039
01:05:14,791 --> 01:05:18,000
device having steam OS on it.
2040
01:05:19,458 --> 01:05:19,666
Yeah.
2041
01:05:20,458 --> 01:05:22,375
I think that'd be fun, but I don't, it
2042
01:05:22,375 --> 01:05:24,166
wouldn't be worth my two, like $2,000.
2043
01:05:24,416 --> 01:05:26,125
I'd probably end up having to spend on it
2044
01:05:26,125 --> 01:05:29,500
that I can spend, uh, going to Japan.
2045
01:05:30,500 --> 01:05:31,541
If Gardner is able to
2046
01:05:31,541 --> 01:05:33,166
go though, would you?
2047
01:05:34,083 --> 01:05:36,291
If Gardner showed up there, I might
2048
01:05:36,291 --> 01:05:38,333
actually go down and visit because I, my
2049
01:05:38,333 --> 01:05:39,458
parents live just two
2050
01:05:39,458 --> 01:05:40,250
hours away from Vegas.
2051
01:05:40,250 --> 01:05:41,666
So I could just go stay there and just go
2052
01:05:41,666 --> 01:05:42,458
down for a day or two.
2053
01:05:42,750 --> 01:05:44,833
Like I thought about doing that.
2054
01:05:45,833 --> 01:05:47,750
I still, I still might, but I don't know.
2055
01:05:48,625 --> 01:05:49,791
It's so close now.
2056
01:05:49,791 --> 01:05:50,833
And then let's see.
2057
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:52,250
So we know retro game
2058
01:05:52,250 --> 01:05:53,166
core is going to be there.
2059
01:05:53,666 --> 01:05:53,916
Yeah.
2060
01:05:54,500 --> 01:05:56,041
The Fox was going to be there, but
2061
01:05:56,041 --> 01:05:57,916
apparently he couldn't find the time off
2062
01:05:57,958 --> 01:05:59,291
because of his real life
2063
01:05:59,291 --> 01:06:02,458
work as an IT professional.
2064
01:06:02,500 --> 01:06:03,125
I don't actually know
2065
01:06:03,125 --> 01:06:05,458
like what he does besides IT.
2066
01:06:07,041 --> 01:06:07,458
He does.
2067
01:06:08,333 --> 01:06:08,541
Yeah.
2068
01:06:08,541 --> 01:06:10,666
I think he has a pretty cushy IT job.
2069
01:06:11,416 --> 01:06:14,458
Um, I would imagine so, especially since
2070
01:06:14,458 --> 01:06:15,458
you're buying all these PC
2071
01:06:15,541 --> 01:06:17,583
handhelds from like, I a Neo.
2072
01:06:19,958 --> 01:06:22,791
Does, does anyone get I a
2073
01:06:22,791 --> 01:06:24,041
Neo devices sent to them?
2074
01:06:24,666 --> 01:06:25,791
Or is that something that like they don't
2075
01:06:25,791 --> 01:06:27,458
really send those out?
2076
01:06:27,458 --> 01:06:30,000
Uh, fan the deck had a bunch of I need a
2077
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:31,333
lot of tech tips always gets
2078
01:06:31,416 --> 01:06:32,208
I need devices.
2079
01:06:32,541 --> 01:06:32,958
Yeah.
2080
01:06:33,041 --> 01:06:34,708
Well, they have a deck did it.
2081
01:06:34,708 --> 01:06:36,458
So like a while ago, I think the last one
2082
01:06:36,458 --> 01:06:38,333
they got was the idea couldn't.
2083
01:06:38,625 --> 01:06:41,500
I got an email from them saying, yo, you
2084
01:06:41,500 --> 01:06:42,291
want to review this?
2085
01:06:42,291 --> 01:06:43,125
And I was like, sure.
2086
01:06:43,500 --> 01:06:44,625
And then I never heard back.
2087
01:06:44,958 --> 01:06:46,208
Dude, that happens to me every single
2088
01:06:46,208 --> 01:06:48,000
time, especially with one X player.
2089
01:06:48,583 --> 01:06:49,000
Oh yeah.
2090
01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:49,291
Oh yeah.
2091
01:06:49,291 --> 01:06:50,666
One X player did that to me too.
2092
01:06:50,666 --> 01:06:50,875
Yeah.
2093
01:06:51,416 --> 01:06:52,541
They did that to me.
2094
01:06:52,541 --> 01:06:53,833
They even like, we've mentioned this
2095
01:06:53,833 --> 01:06:55,541
already, but they even mentioned me in
2096
01:06:55,541 --> 01:06:57,333
like a big marketing email of theirs.
2097
01:06:58,500 --> 01:06:58,750
They're like,
2098
01:06:58,833 --> 01:06:59,583
dude, tell them to review.
2099
01:07:01,541 --> 01:07:03,916
Well, I didn't know that they mentioned
2100
01:07:03,916 --> 01:07:05,416
like my video and they're like, yeah,
2101
01:07:05,416 --> 01:07:07,000
we're going to be sending them a video or
2102
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:08,291
a device in every gun.
2103
01:07:08,291 --> 01:07:09,791
I'm like, damn it.
2104
01:07:10,125 --> 01:07:10,625
Oh well.
2105
01:07:10,625 --> 01:07:12,458
I didn't push the thing well enough.
2106
01:07:12,458 --> 01:07:15,000
I I'm really bad at pushing to get stuff.
2107
01:07:17,125 --> 01:07:17,250
Yeah.
2108
01:07:17,500 --> 01:07:18,625
So you got to get to it, man.
2109
01:07:19,208 --> 01:07:21,708
I know I need to, because I need to get
2110
01:07:21,708 --> 01:07:23,916
built up to where when valve comes out
2111
01:07:23,916 --> 01:07:25,791
with their next device, I can be on their
2112
01:07:25,791 --> 01:07:27,166
list, even though I'm kind of on their
2113
01:07:27,208 --> 01:07:29,458
list, but if I'm not really showing that
2114
01:07:29,458 --> 01:07:30,833
I'm going to do anything with it, then
2115
01:07:31,083 --> 01:07:32,041
they were not going to send me anything.
2116
01:07:32,666 --> 01:07:32,875
Yeah.
2117
01:07:33,500 --> 01:07:37,458
So hopefully we'll be big enough to get
2118
01:07:37,458 --> 01:07:38,541
the steam deck too early.
2119
01:07:40,291 --> 01:07:41,708
Oh, I definitely think Gardner's going
2120
01:07:41,708 --> 01:07:43,583
to, I think high tech.
2121
01:07:43,833 --> 01:07:45,750
I think as long as you get, um, contact
2122
01:07:45,750 --> 01:07:47,666
him sooner than later, I think you could.
2123
01:07:48,625 --> 01:07:49,041
Yeah.
2124
01:07:49,041 --> 01:07:51,208
I have some, I have some work to do.
2125
01:07:51,625 --> 01:07:51,916
Yeah.
2126
01:07:52,166 --> 01:07:52,333
Yeah.
2127
01:07:52,333 --> 01:07:52,583
Yeah.
2128
01:07:52,916 --> 01:07:54,541
I will need, I will need to push valve
2129
01:07:54,541 --> 01:07:56,791
further, but yes, I have a feeling.
2130
01:07:57,458 --> 01:08:01,291
So speaking of which exclusive, do you,
2131
01:08:01,291 --> 01:08:02,875
do you see yourselves exclusively being
2132
01:08:02,875 --> 01:08:04,750
steam deck creators or DC yourselves
2133
01:08:04,750 --> 01:08:05,833
covering the Nintendo
2134
01:08:05,833 --> 01:08:06,708
switch to or whatever?
2135
01:08:09,041 --> 01:08:10,208
I couldn't care less about
2136
01:08:10,208 --> 01:08:12,333
the Nintendo switch to at all.
2137
01:08:12,583 --> 01:08:13,500
Or the super switch.
2138
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:14,750
I don't think it's going to be
2139
01:08:14,750 --> 01:08:16,500
called the Nintendo switch to.
2140
01:08:17,166 --> 01:08:18,666
Uh, I don't know.
2141
01:08:18,916 --> 01:08:19,125
Anyway.
2142
01:08:19,583 --> 01:08:21,375
So Gardner doesn't like Nintendo.
2143
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:22,208
Yeah.
2144
01:08:22,958 --> 01:08:23,375
No, no, no.
2145
01:08:23,625 --> 01:08:24,958
I love my endo.
2146
01:08:25,333 --> 01:08:26,666
I love Nintendo games.
2147
01:08:27,083 --> 01:08:27,458
Yeah.
2148
01:08:27,458 --> 01:08:28,541
I love Nintendo's games.
2149
01:08:28,750 --> 01:08:30,791
I hate the company and how they are.
2150
01:08:31,083 --> 01:08:31,416
Yep.
2151
01:08:31,708 --> 01:08:32,083
Yeah.
2152
01:08:32,083 --> 01:08:32,375
Yeah.
2153
01:08:32,375 --> 01:08:32,541
Yep.
2154
01:08:33,458 --> 01:08:36,875
Uh, I guarantee y'all, I always say I'm
2155
01:08:36,875 --> 01:08:37,500
like, I don't think
2156
01:08:37,500 --> 01:08:38,750
I'll cover the, the, the
2157
01:08:38,750 --> 01:08:40,125
super switch or whatever it's going to
2158
01:08:40,125 --> 01:08:41,291
be, but I probably
2159
01:08:41,291 --> 01:08:42,458
will end up covering it a
2160
01:08:42,458 --> 01:08:45,750
little bit, but it's not really my jam.
2161
01:08:45,958 --> 01:08:47,250
Even though I have tons of
2162
01:08:47,250 --> 01:08:48,625
switch games, I like the switch.
2163
01:08:49,333 --> 01:08:52,666
I think that the steam deck and all these
2164
01:08:52,666 --> 01:08:53,500
other devices are
2165
01:08:53,500 --> 01:08:54,750
just drastically better.
2166
01:08:55,375 --> 01:08:55,708
Yes.
2167
01:08:56,125 --> 01:08:56,333
Absolutely.
2168
01:08:56,875 --> 01:08:58,708
I don't like the controller.
2169
01:08:59,166 --> 01:09:00,583
In fact, I had to buy a bigger controller
2170
01:09:00,583 --> 01:09:01,500
for this, this switch.
2171
01:09:01,750 --> 01:09:03,291
It was just cramping my hands too much.
2172
01:09:03,833 --> 01:09:06,250
So speaking of exclusives, final fantasy
2173
01:09:06,250 --> 01:09:07,500
seven rebirth, a
2174
01:09:07,500 --> 01:09:09,083
former PS five exclusive.
2175
01:09:09,750 --> 01:09:11,541
They say sales don't disappoint, but they
2176
01:09:11,541 --> 01:09:13,250
can't be exclusive to a single console
2177
01:09:13,291 --> 01:09:15,833
anymore as per Yoshinori Kitase.
2178
01:09:16,333 --> 01:09:18,375
I'm a producer of final
2179
01:09:18,375 --> 01:09:19,250
fantasy seven rebirth.
2180
01:09:19,916 --> 01:09:21,333
They did an interview with IG in Brazil
2181
01:09:21,333 --> 01:09:22,541
and that's what the quote says.
2182
01:09:23,291 --> 01:09:25,416
So modern games cannot
2183
01:09:25,416 --> 01:09:26,500
be exclusive anymore.
2184
01:09:26,500 --> 01:09:30,083
They say the question now is, Oh yeah.
2185
01:09:30,083 --> 01:09:32,083
And as, as we know, P the PC ports come
2186
01:09:32,083 --> 01:09:33,333
out later this month on steam.
2187
01:09:33,875 --> 01:09:35,375
It's not an epic exclusive this time.
2188
01:09:35,375 --> 01:09:36,125
I'm like the last one.
2189
01:09:36,125 --> 01:09:37,833
If you guys remember that.
2190
01:09:39,083 --> 01:09:42,750
So the big question now is, will they
2191
01:09:42,750 --> 01:09:45,500
release rebirth or remake on X-Box?
2192
01:09:46,500 --> 01:09:48,125
Cause we don't have any word on that.
2193
01:09:50,291 --> 01:09:51,708
They, these are times exclusive.
2194
01:09:51,875 --> 01:09:53,875
So they're going to eventually release
2195
01:09:53,875 --> 01:09:54,833
them on everything they can.
2196
01:09:55,041 --> 01:09:57,250
There's no point in not unless you're a
2197
01:09:57,250 --> 01:10:00,166
first party or third party owned, like
2198
01:10:00,166 --> 01:10:03,208
essentially, uh, like Sony owns a lot of
2199
01:10:03,208 --> 01:10:05,791
third party, at least exclusivities.
2200
01:10:06,458 --> 01:10:07,041
Like bloodborne.
2201
01:10:07,500 --> 01:10:09,125
I believe if there's another bloodborne,
2202
01:10:09,125 --> 01:10:10,625
I think it has, I believe it would have
2203
01:10:10,625 --> 01:10:11,416
to be on the PlayStation.
2204
01:10:12,416 --> 01:10:14,291
Um, even, even though
2205
01:10:14,291 --> 01:10:15,583
Elden ring is on other devices.
2206
01:10:16,166 --> 01:10:20,708
And so I like, this is a
2207
01:10:20,708 --> 01:10:21,750
silly, kind of a silly statement.
2208
01:10:21,875 --> 01:10:25,000
I think you can still have exclusives on,
2209
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:26,666
on hardware and stuff like that.
2210
01:10:27,041 --> 01:10:28,125
It just depends on how good your
2211
01:10:28,125 --> 01:10:29,541
exclusivity contract is.
2212
01:10:29,541 --> 01:10:30,833
And if it doesn't make up for all the
2213
01:10:30,833 --> 01:10:31,458
purchases that would have
2214
01:10:31,458 --> 01:10:33,000
been made on the other device.
2215
01:10:33,625 --> 01:10:35,541
And is it even worth for these?
2216
01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:38,791
I just, I don't think it's worth it for
2217
01:10:38,791 --> 01:10:39,666
companies to do this anymore.
2218
01:10:39,666 --> 01:10:40,291
I think they could
2219
01:10:40,291 --> 01:10:41,583
still be done and it's fine.
2220
01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:43,125
It's just not worth it.
2221
01:10:43,666 --> 01:10:45,333
It doesn't make sense for third party
2222
01:10:45,333 --> 01:10:48,208
developers to make exclusive titles.
2223
01:10:48,458 --> 01:10:49,625
It just doesn't make any sense.
2224
01:10:49,833 --> 01:10:52,750
The only reason that exclusives makes any
2225
01:10:52,750 --> 01:10:55,791
sense is if it's a first party exclusive
2226
01:10:55,958 --> 01:10:57,666
to sell consoles, like that's the only
2227
01:10:57,666 --> 01:10:58,958
reason that they exist.
2228
01:10:59,583 --> 01:11:02,541
Um, brand like Epic is a, an example too,
2229
01:11:02,541 --> 01:11:05,000
is to sell their brand or their launcher.
2230
01:11:05,375 --> 01:11:06,958
Well, I think, I mean, I think five,
2231
01:11:06,958 --> 01:11:08,541
actually seven rebirth was
2232
01:11:08,541 --> 01:11:10,708
meant to be a system seller for Sony.
2233
01:11:10,916 --> 01:11:11,541
That's why they wanted
2234
01:11:11,541 --> 01:11:12,875
an exclusive so badly.
2235
01:11:13,416 --> 01:11:15,166
But I don't think it sold nearly as many
2236
01:11:15,166 --> 01:11:16,500
PS fives as people thought it,
2237
01:11:16,750 --> 01:11:17,791
as they thought it would, I guess.
2238
01:11:19,375 --> 01:11:19,791
Yeah.
2239
01:11:19,833 --> 01:11:21,791
Well, I mean, are any of the consoles
2240
01:11:21,791 --> 01:11:23,708
doing well this generation?
2241
01:11:25,333 --> 01:11:26,291
They're doing a switch.
2242
01:11:27,166 --> 01:11:27,583
The switch.
2243
01:11:27,791 --> 01:11:28,250
Yeah, of course.
2244
01:11:28,500 --> 01:11:29,333
But, uh, which is killing
2245
01:11:29,333 --> 01:11:30,875
the PS five sales, actually.
2246
01:11:31,375 --> 01:11:32,833
Switch is two generations though.
2247
01:11:32,833 --> 01:11:34,541
Like they came out like what, just like a
2248
01:11:34,541 --> 01:11:36,125
year or two after PS four came out.
2249
01:11:36,458 --> 01:11:36,708
Yeah.
2250
01:11:37,500 --> 01:11:38,041
Like a couple of
2251
01:11:38,041 --> 01:11:39,041
years, like they're there.
2252
01:11:39,041 --> 01:11:41,125
I had Scott to consider them the last
2253
01:11:41,125 --> 01:11:42,250
generation, not this generation.
2254
01:11:42,500 --> 01:11:44,041
Well, it's still selling
2255
01:11:44,041 --> 01:11:46,333
consoles and software for it.
2256
01:11:46,333 --> 01:11:47,000
So it was PS four though.
2257
01:11:47,041 --> 01:11:49,583
Especially in other countries.
2258
01:11:50,041 --> 01:11:52,083
Like, yeah, I think is
2259
01:11:52,083 --> 01:11:53,583
like anecdotally, right?
2260
01:11:53,958 --> 01:11:57,250
I know one person in my circle of friends
2261
01:11:57,250 --> 01:12:00,791
who has an Xbox, like the current
2262
01:12:00,791 --> 01:12:03,583
gen Xbox, and I know like maybe four or
2263
01:12:03,583 --> 01:12:06,083
five people who have PlayStation fives.
2264
01:12:06,875 --> 01:12:09,291
But like, if you go back just to the
2265
01:12:09,291 --> 01:12:11,375
previous generation, pretty much
2266
01:12:11,375 --> 01:12:13,125
everyone I knew had a PS four.
2267
01:12:13,583 --> 01:12:13,875
Yeah.
2268
01:12:13,875 --> 01:12:15,041
Like everybody that I
2269
01:12:15,041 --> 01:12:16,375
knew, even like my, um,
2270
01:12:16,458 --> 01:12:19,250
um, my friend's grandmother had a PS four
2271
01:12:19,250 --> 01:12:20,791
and she played it all the time.
2272
01:12:21,291 --> 01:12:22,083
And it's like, that's awesome.
2273
01:12:22,500 --> 01:12:24,166
Dude, she's really, she's a great lady.
2274
01:12:24,708 --> 01:12:27,333
Um, but yeah, like, but now it's like, I
2275
01:12:27,333 --> 01:12:29,791
know, I, I know five people who have
2276
01:12:29,791 --> 01:12:32,125
PlayStation fives and I'm like, at least
2277
01:12:32,125 --> 01:12:33,791
just, they just don't seem to be selling
2278
01:12:33,791 --> 01:12:35,125
and they don't seem to be doing well.
2279
01:12:36,541 --> 01:12:38,333
It's honestly, it's partly the
2280
01:12:38,333 --> 01:12:39,500
exclusivity kind of thing.
2281
01:12:39,500 --> 01:12:41,208
I think partially it's that.
2282
01:12:41,208 --> 01:12:44,208
And also, um, they had a game plan for
2283
01:12:44,208 --> 01:12:45,333
hardware, not games.
2284
01:12:45,666 --> 01:12:49,000
Like the Sony, and I think this is also
2285
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:50,291
indicative of how long it takes to make
2286
01:12:50,291 --> 01:12:51,833
games nowadays, especially like really,
2287
01:12:51,833 --> 01:12:53,083
really big budget ones.
2288
01:12:53,083 --> 01:12:53,666
It takes a long time.
2289
01:12:53,875 --> 01:12:55,291
I don't think people respect that.
2290
01:12:55,750 --> 01:12:57,708
Um, when they complain about how bad
2291
01:12:57,708 --> 01:12:59,375
games are nowadays, I don't think they
2292
01:12:59,375 --> 01:13:02,041
respect how much it takes to make a
2293
01:13:02,041 --> 01:13:05,125
really, really good triple-A title that
2294
01:13:05,208 --> 01:13:07,166
they're wanting, like if it's open world
2295
01:13:07,166 --> 01:13:09,958
and all that, um, I think maybe we need
2296
01:13:09,958 --> 01:13:11,541
to cut back some of our expectations and
2297
01:13:11,541 --> 01:13:12,750
also game companies need to cut back
2298
01:13:12,833 --> 01:13:15,125
some of the, how big they make games and
2299
01:13:15,125 --> 01:13:16,500
start making more iterative.
2300
01:13:17,000 --> 01:13:19,375
Like multiple in a series instead of like
2301
01:13:19,375 --> 01:13:21,750
these massive ones, because you just.
2302
01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:24,291
The higher chances of failing, but
2303
01:13:24,291 --> 01:13:25,750
besides the point, I'm
2304
01:13:25,750 --> 01:13:28,791
just, I think like I have
2305
01:13:28,791 --> 01:13:31,250
a PS five, um, I bought it.
2306
01:13:32,166 --> 01:13:33,333
I enjoyed it for a little bit.
2307
01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:35,000
I've used it probably
2308
01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:36,083
less than my VR headset.
2309
01:13:36,958 --> 01:13:39,250
Um, and I'm starting to play it again
2310
01:13:39,250 --> 01:13:41,083
with Astro bot, which
2311
01:13:41,083 --> 01:13:42,166
was probably honestly
2312
01:13:42,333 --> 01:13:45,250
the first true first party game that I've
2313
01:13:45,250 --> 01:13:46,250
actually liked on it.
2314
01:13:46,250 --> 01:13:46,791
I think everything
2315
01:13:46,791 --> 01:13:48,000
else has been like, okay.
2316
01:13:48,708 --> 01:13:50,125
And then eventually they they've come out
2317
01:13:50,125 --> 01:13:51,541
with PC versions of it.
2318
01:13:51,541 --> 01:13:52,750
And I just waited for the PC version.
2319
01:13:53,041 --> 01:13:56,625
So they don't, and Xbox is even worse.
2320
01:13:57,375 --> 01:13:59,416
They don't have good first party titles.
2321
01:14:00,125 --> 01:14:02,625
And I don't, and I think
2322
01:14:02,625 --> 01:14:03,541
we're kind of over that.
2323
01:14:03,541 --> 01:14:04,916
I don't think it's
2324
01:14:04,916 --> 01:14:06,208
viable to even do it anymore.
2325
01:14:08,166 --> 01:14:09,000
Exclusivity is.
2326
01:14:09,208 --> 01:14:10,708
So I will say we have, we have had some
2327
01:14:10,708 --> 01:14:12,500
criticisms in the past because people
2328
01:14:12,500 --> 01:14:14,416
thought that we had some weird Xbox hate.
2329
01:14:15,041 --> 01:14:15,750
We don't hate.
2330
01:14:15,750 --> 01:14:16,416
I don't mind me.
2331
01:14:16,416 --> 01:14:17,083
I don't hate Xbox.
2332
01:14:17,666 --> 01:14:19,083
I just hate what Xbox has become.
2333
01:14:21,166 --> 01:14:25,125
I have genuine affection for all three of
2334
01:14:25,125 --> 01:14:26,875
the major console manufacturers.
2335
01:14:27,291 --> 01:14:30,000
Like, like they, I have such great
2336
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:32,541
memories of some of like the exclusive
2337
01:14:32,708 --> 01:14:33,750
games for each console.
2338
01:14:34,750 --> 01:14:39,375
And I just, I, the reason that I am so
2339
01:14:39,375 --> 01:14:40,833
down on Xbox is one
2340
01:14:40,833 --> 01:14:42,041
it's owned by Microsoft.
2341
01:14:42,041 --> 01:14:43,500
I don't really like Microsoft very much,
2342
01:14:43,500 --> 01:14:46,125
but also the fact that like they have
2343
01:14:46,125 --> 01:14:49,083
just been completely fumbling for two
2344
01:14:49,083 --> 01:14:52,916
generations in, in spectacularly terrible
2345
01:14:52,916 --> 01:14:55,291
ways and it just, I don't know, like
2346
01:14:55,291 --> 01:14:59,333
that's one, that's why I, I shit on
2347
01:14:59,333 --> 01:15:00,000
Microsoft so much in Xbox.
2348
01:15:00,208 --> 01:15:02,000
Cause I just see them
2349
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:04,166
as losing intentionally.
2350
01:15:05,708 --> 01:15:08,541
Microsoft's an interesting company.
2351
01:15:09,375 --> 01:15:13,291
They're, they're good at like th th th.
2352
01:15:13,416 --> 01:15:16,000
So like with the new CEO that came in to
2353
01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:17,958
play like what, 10 years ago, they really
2354
01:15:17,958 --> 01:15:20,125
put a lot of focus on programming and
2355
01:15:20,125 --> 01:15:21,541
some other things and they've done some
2356
01:15:21,541 --> 01:15:23,750
good stuff in that realm, even though
2357
01:15:23,750 --> 01:15:26,416
they're kind of like, just like any
2358
01:15:27,250 --> 01:15:30,375
corporation, they did, they showed that
2359
01:15:30,375 --> 01:15:32,208
like Google too, they did well in the
2360
01:15:32,208 --> 01:15:33,291
beginning, they showed goodwill.
2361
01:15:33,500 --> 01:15:34,958
And now I feel like this we're kind of at
2362
01:15:34,958 --> 01:15:36,500
that point where now it's time for the
2363
01:15:36,500 --> 01:15:38,000
backstabbing and that's a
2364
01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:38,750
little bit of my concern.
2365
01:15:39,500 --> 01:15:40,791
Blizzard was already dead to me.
2366
01:15:41,250 --> 01:15:43,041
So seeing Microsoft buy it up was like,
2367
01:15:43,041 --> 01:15:44,375
well, they couldn't
2368
01:15:44,375 --> 01:15:45,291
get, and I still don't
2369
01:15:45,291 --> 01:15:47,166
think that Microsoft could ever get as
2370
01:15:47,166 --> 01:15:48,208
bad as what Blizzard was.
2371
01:15:48,708 --> 01:15:49,541
Blizzard was horrible.
2372
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:50,750
Let's just be honest.
2373
01:15:50,958 --> 01:15:54,208
Blizzard was, was, it was going to die.
2374
01:15:54,208 --> 01:15:55,416
And I was really sad.
2375
01:15:55,500 --> 01:15:58,458
It's like watching, it's like watching
2376
01:15:58,458 --> 01:16:00,125
your favorite dog or something like that
2377
01:16:00,125 --> 01:16:03,083
get over almost, but a slow motion sounds
2378
01:16:03,083 --> 01:16:06,666
horrible, but you're just like, I'd love
2379
01:16:06,666 --> 01:16:08,750
this thing so much and you're killing it.
2380
01:16:09,375 --> 01:16:11,333
Um, and there'd be, and
2381
01:16:11,333 --> 01:16:12,458
they were assholes too.
2382
01:16:12,458 --> 01:16:13,708
Like the C level execs
2383
01:16:13,708 --> 01:16:15,125
were assholes about it.
2384
01:16:15,666 --> 01:16:17,041
Um, that's what's even worse.
2385
01:16:17,833 --> 01:16:23,750
And so I think Microsoft is, is, is fine.
2386
01:16:23,916 --> 01:16:26,750
But yeah, I, like, I don't know if we're
2387
01:16:26,750 --> 01:16:27,916
at the end of the layoffs too.
2388
01:16:28,208 --> 01:16:30,625
Like we have another like
2389
01:16:30,625 --> 01:16:32,916
with Tango game works, right?
2390
01:16:33,583 --> 01:16:37,000
They deleted that, um, studio.
2391
01:16:37,458 --> 01:16:38,333
And I don't know if you've heard about
2392
01:16:38,333 --> 01:16:40,458
this one, the high tech, but, uh, Tango
2393
01:16:40,458 --> 01:16:41,500
game works, uh, they
2394
01:16:41,500 --> 01:16:43,208
live again, by the way.
2395
01:16:43,208 --> 01:16:43,458
Hmm.
2396
01:16:44,041 --> 01:16:44,250
Yeah.
2397
01:16:44,291 --> 01:16:44,958
They're back.
2398
01:16:44,958 --> 01:16:45,416
I've heard.
2399
01:16:45,541 --> 01:16:46,500
Craftin, yep.
2400
01:16:46,625 --> 01:16:49,666
Craftin, uh, bought the, at least they
2401
01:16:49,666 --> 01:16:51,708
got the studio back up.
2402
01:16:51,916 --> 01:16:53,500
Like they, I guess, I don't know if they
2403
01:16:53,500 --> 01:16:56,541
bought, they had to get the, uh, hi-fi.
2404
01:16:56,875 --> 01:16:59,166
I'm sure they had to buy the IP, but
2405
01:16:59,166 --> 01:17:00,666
that's the only IP that I have.
2406
01:17:00,666 --> 01:17:01,666
I believe is hi-fi.
2407
01:17:02,708 --> 01:17:06,166
Um, and so, so the evil within and goes
2408
01:17:06,166 --> 01:17:08,458
to our Tokyo are still at with
2409
01:17:08,541 --> 01:17:10,583
Bethesda in my extension, Microsoft.
2410
01:17:11,416 --> 01:17:11,708
Yep.
2411
01:17:12,333 --> 01:17:16,500
Which I could see, I have a feeling that
2412
01:17:16,500 --> 01:17:17,583
they're probably holding onto that.
2413
01:17:17,583 --> 01:17:19,375
I could see if hi-fi rush two does really
2414
01:17:19,375 --> 01:17:21,416
well, which it's such a, I could
2415
01:17:21,458 --> 01:17:22,708
see it doing really well, as long as you
2416
01:17:22,708 --> 01:17:25,125
don't neuter it with game pass, as long
2417
01:17:25,125 --> 01:17:27,708
as you don't, uh, overplay the marketing.
2418
01:17:27,708 --> 01:17:30,041
Cause it's a cult classic cult classics
2419
01:17:30,041 --> 01:17:31,958
only can go so far with marketing.
2420
01:17:32,541 --> 01:17:35,083
Um, as long as they do it well, I can see
2421
01:17:35,083 --> 01:17:37,500
Microsoft well, we'll, we'll sell you
2422
01:17:37,500 --> 01:17:41,000
evil within for a lot more and maybe I
2423
01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:41,875
hope they don't ran submit.
2424
01:17:42,041 --> 01:17:43,791
I hope they do well and just give it to
2425
01:17:43,791 --> 01:17:45,833
them for a cheap price or give it to
2426
01:17:45,833 --> 01:17:48,291
them because evil within is one of my
2427
01:17:48,291 --> 01:17:49,166
favorite horror series.
2428
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:53,333
Um, and evil within two is just such a,
2429
01:17:53,333 --> 01:17:54,500
like it plays so well.
2430
01:17:54,500 --> 01:17:55,333
I really like it.
2431
01:17:55,958 --> 01:17:56,666
It's a, it's a mind
2432
01:17:56,666 --> 01:17:58,250
fuck kind of game too.
2433
01:17:58,250 --> 01:17:59,375
So it's kind of fun for that.
2434
01:17:59,375 --> 01:18:00,416
Cause there's not too many of those types
2435
01:18:00,416 --> 01:18:01,250
of games that do well,
2436
01:18:03,083 --> 01:18:03,833
but it's a niche game.
2437
01:18:03,833 --> 01:18:05,541
Like they're, that's the problem with
2438
01:18:05,541 --> 01:18:07,291
Tango game works that
2439
01:18:07,291 --> 01:18:09,583
they do amazing work, but
2440
01:18:09,583 --> 01:18:13,000
they're niche types of games where people
2441
01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:15,208
don't play, like they're not, it's like
2442
01:18:15,208 --> 01:18:16,250
dead space too also, right?
2443
01:18:17,333 --> 01:18:18,958
Not a lot of people play these types of
2444
01:18:18,958 --> 01:18:21,125
games, like enough to warrant like big
2445
01:18:21,208 --> 01:18:23,250
budgeted triplet budgets.
2446
01:18:23,250 --> 01:18:25,083
And so game companies don't
2447
01:18:25,083 --> 01:18:26,000
usually want to go after that.
2448
01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:27,166
They want to go off after the
2449
01:18:27,166 --> 01:18:28,416
biggest bag they can get right.
2450
01:18:29,083 --> 01:18:32,291
As opposed to, um, doing a lot of good
2451
01:18:32,291 --> 01:18:33,750
little bets that will
2452
01:18:33,750 --> 01:18:34,666
pay off really well.
2453
01:18:34,666 --> 01:18:37,708
As long as they don't have this weird
2454
01:18:37,708 --> 01:18:39,250
mindset that they can put in a hundred
2455
01:18:39,291 --> 01:18:40,500
thousand or a hundred million dollars
2456
01:18:40,500 --> 01:18:42,291
into marketing and expect it to re have
2457
01:18:42,333 --> 01:18:45,125
returns like that, you know,
2458
01:18:45,625 --> 01:18:46,666
so I am, yeah.
2459
01:18:46,916 --> 01:18:49,583
So I am curious how a Tango games or
2460
01:18:49,583 --> 01:18:51,750
games circle proceed without, you know,
2461
01:18:52,208 --> 01:18:54,250
some of their big known talents like, uh,
2462
01:18:54,833 --> 01:18:56,625
Shinjime Kami, uh, you know, former
2463
01:18:56,666 --> 01:18:58,458
Capcom, he made resident evil.
2464
01:18:58,458 --> 01:19:00,000
He also made the evil with him.
2465
01:19:00,125 --> 01:19:00,500
That's true.
2466
01:19:00,958 --> 01:19:04,291
And also I try to remember her name, the,
2467
01:19:04,291 --> 01:19:06,375
like, eccentric, the very eccentric
2468
01:19:06,500 --> 01:19:09,250
Japanese, uh, like developer that was
2469
01:19:09,250 --> 01:19:10,291
like, she was on stage
2470
01:19:10,291 --> 01:19:11,083
and that people loved
2471
01:19:11,083 --> 01:19:11,708
her on the internet.
2472
01:19:13,333 --> 01:19:13,791
Oh yeah.
2473
01:19:13,958 --> 01:19:16,791
Oh, oh, I'm not going to
2474
01:19:16,791 --> 01:19:17,583
be able to remember it.
2475
01:19:17,583 --> 01:19:19,333
Yeah, I don't remember, but I know what
2476
01:19:19,333 --> 01:19:19,833
you're talking about.
2477
01:19:20,333 --> 01:19:20,541
Yeah.
2478
01:19:21,333 --> 01:19:23,291
Uh, I think they could do fine, but yeah,
2479
01:19:23,291 --> 01:19:24,666
maybe, maybe that triggers
2480
01:19:24,666 --> 01:19:25,833
that evil within is dead.
2481
01:19:26,500 --> 01:19:27,041
Um,
2482
01:19:27,291 --> 01:19:27,875
Oh, yeah.
2483
01:19:28,083 --> 01:19:28,875
Not going to be, he can work.
2484
01:19:28,875 --> 01:19:29,125
He can work.
2485
01:19:29,125 --> 01:19:29,333
He can work.
2486
01:19:29,541 --> 01:19:29,791
Yeah.
2487
01:19:30,500 --> 01:19:30,708
Yeah.
2488
01:19:31,500 --> 01:19:34,125
She also did the art for the evil within
2489
01:19:34,125 --> 01:19:35,458
and the evil for the two.
2490
01:19:35,708 --> 01:19:36,583
And she basically
2491
01:19:36,583 --> 01:19:38,541
directed ghost wire Tokyo.
2492
01:19:39,625 --> 01:19:39,958
Hmm.
2493
01:19:40,708 --> 01:19:46,000
Uh, well, and she was also, she was also
2494
01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:48,458
working for cat to, she did
2495
01:19:48,458 --> 01:19:51,666
Okami, the artwork for Okami.
2496
01:19:52,291 --> 01:19:54,791
I think she's going back.
2497
01:19:54,791 --> 01:19:55,583
Like, where is she now?
2498
01:19:55,583 --> 01:19:56,500
Did she go back to,
2499
01:19:56,500 --> 01:19:58,000
she has her own studio.
2500
01:19:58,416 --> 01:19:59,041
Oh, she also did the
2501
01:19:59,041 --> 01:20:00,291
arm for Bayonetta as well.
2502
01:20:02,458 --> 01:20:04,250
So she's got a lot of, she's done a lot
2503
01:20:04,250 --> 01:20:06,250
of really like influential games.
2504
01:20:06,750 --> 01:20:08,333
Like, interesting.
2505
01:20:10,666 --> 01:20:10,958
Yeah.
2506
01:20:11,291 --> 01:20:12,875
I, I'm that kind of,
2507
01:20:12,875 --> 01:20:14,375
uh, I got my hopes up.
2508
01:20:14,833 --> 01:20:16,541
I now you destroyed my hopes.
2509
01:20:16,541 --> 01:20:17,291
I don't think there's going
2510
01:20:17,291 --> 01:20:18,375
to be another evil within.
2511
01:20:19,125 --> 01:20:20,916
Uh, there could be, there could be.
2512
01:20:20,916 --> 01:20:22,166
Well, I don't think either of them were
2513
01:20:22,166 --> 01:20:24,333
really that involved in, uh,
2514
01:20:24,750 --> 01:20:25,875
Hi-Fi rush though, to be honest.
2515
01:20:26,250 --> 01:20:26,458
Yeah.
2516
01:20:26,666 --> 01:20:29,666
And so I, it sounds like Tango GameWorks
2517
01:20:29,666 --> 01:20:31,333
is going to pivot to high fresh, high,
2518
01:20:31,333 --> 01:20:33,583
high five rush style games, which is good
2519
01:20:33,583 --> 01:20:34,416
for them, which is good.
2520
01:20:34,416 --> 01:20:37,458
I, I, I'm happy as long as they're, um, a
2521
01:20:37,458 --> 01:20:39,500
studio again and doing what they love.
2522
01:20:40,416 --> 01:20:43,458
Um, even if it kills a
2523
01:20:43,458 --> 01:20:44,791
favorite friends, tries of mine.
2524
01:20:46,500 --> 01:20:50,750
Ah, so I just want to say Krafton, I
2525
01:20:50,750 --> 01:20:52,125
believe they're the guys that
2526
01:20:52,166 --> 01:20:52,958
own PUBG.
2527
01:20:54,166 --> 01:20:54,500
Yes.
2528
01:20:54,750 --> 01:20:56,541
And I just, and I just want to say, I
2529
01:20:56,541 --> 01:20:57,666
found this out the other day.
2530
01:20:58,333 --> 01:21:00,708
So, you know how PUBG stands for player
2531
01:21:00,708 --> 01:21:02,375
unknowns about player unknowns,
2532
01:21:02,375 --> 01:21:03,833
battlegrounds, cause it's named after
2533
01:21:03,833 --> 01:21:05,375
like, you know, the guy player unknown.
2534
01:21:06,041 --> 01:21:08,333
So apparently on Steam, get this.
2535
01:21:09,041 --> 01:21:10,791
The game isn't called player knowns
2536
01:21:10,791 --> 01:21:11,625
battlegrounds anymore.
2537
01:21:11,625 --> 01:21:14,708
It's called PUBG battlegrounds.
2538
01:21:15,375 --> 01:21:16,083
Player unknown
2539
01:21:16,083 --> 01:21:18,750
battlegrounds battlegrounds.
2540
01:21:18,750 --> 01:21:18,958
Yeah.
2541
01:21:19,208 --> 01:21:21,166
Why ATM machine?
2542
01:21:22,500 --> 01:21:22,708
Yeah.
2543
01:21:23,250 --> 01:21:24,500
I don't call it ATM machine.
2544
01:21:24,500 --> 01:21:25,041
I just call it ATM.
2545
01:21:25,625 --> 01:21:26,416
I know.
2546
01:21:26,833 --> 01:21:27,041
Right.
2547
01:21:28,416 --> 01:21:28,958
Yeah.
2548
01:21:28,958 --> 01:21:29,583
It's weird.
2549
01:21:30,833 --> 01:21:30,958
Yeah.
2550
01:21:30,958 --> 01:21:31,666
It just happens.
2551
01:21:31,875 --> 01:21:32,500
That's just what happens
2552
01:21:32,500 --> 01:21:33,791
with acronyms over time.
2553
01:21:33,791 --> 01:21:35,333
They don't become act like they kind of
2554
01:21:35,333 --> 01:21:36,791
just lose their acronym meaning.
2555
01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:38,791
And you just think of PUBG.
2556
01:21:39,000 --> 01:21:40,083
Like I get it.
2557
01:21:40,083 --> 01:21:40,416
An acronym.
2558
01:21:40,791 --> 01:21:41,583
I get, yeah.
2559
01:21:41,583 --> 01:21:43,500
People calling it an ATM machine, but
2560
01:21:43,500 --> 01:21:44,833
this was a hundred percent completely
2561
01:21:44,916 --> 01:21:48,041
avoidable to be, to be fair.
2562
01:21:48,041 --> 01:21:49,000
I always forgot about
2563
01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:50,125
what PUBG even meant.
2564
01:21:50,416 --> 01:21:50,833
I know.
2565
01:21:50,833 --> 01:21:52,375
Like when you say it, like I know what
2566
01:21:52,375 --> 01:21:55,250
that is, but I, I don't, I think you'd
2567
01:21:55,250 --> 01:21:57,041
be shocked if you did a poll on how many
2568
01:21:57,041 --> 01:21:59,291
people without looking it up.
2569
01:21:59,750 --> 01:22:02,208
Knew what PUBG exactly meant.
2570
01:22:03,333 --> 01:22:03,708
Oh man.
2571
01:22:04,291 --> 01:22:04,750
All right.
2572
01:22:05,083 --> 01:22:06,666
Well, just saying marketing, man.
2573
01:22:06,958 --> 01:22:07,500
I played it.
2574
01:22:07,666 --> 01:22:08,166
Just saying.
2575
01:22:08,458 --> 01:22:08,666
Yeah.
2576
01:22:08,791 --> 01:22:10,375
I played a little bit of it.
2577
01:22:10,375 --> 01:22:12,041
It's, it was a lot of fun, like in the
2578
01:22:12,041 --> 01:22:13,916
early days, cause it was just pure
2579
01:22:13,916 --> 01:22:15,250
battle royale, but
2580
01:22:15,250 --> 01:22:17,416
yeah, it's free to play now.
2581
01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:19,583
So you know how shit, you
2582
01:22:19,583 --> 01:22:20,750
know, how shit goes with that.
2583
01:22:21,583 --> 01:22:21,958
Yeah.
2584
01:22:21,958 --> 01:22:23,750
I played it because friends played it,
2585
01:22:23,750 --> 01:22:26,000
but I really don't like
2586
01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:27,791
arena style like that.
2587
01:22:29,333 --> 01:22:29,958
Not a fan.
2588
01:22:32,708 --> 01:22:34,208
It's yeah.
2589
01:22:36,125 --> 01:22:39,458
Oh, did Krafton do Kalista protocol?
2590
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:42,083
They did as well.
2591
01:22:42,083 --> 01:22:43,833
It was, I remember it was supposed to be
2592
01:22:43,833 --> 01:22:47,791
part of the PUBG universe, but then they
2593
01:22:47,791 --> 01:22:49,083
kind of scrapped that.
2594
01:22:49,416 --> 01:22:52,625
I don't know how that was what it was
2595
01:22:52,625 --> 01:22:53,541
originally going to be.
2596
01:22:54,541 --> 01:22:56,291
I remember reading that report and that
2597
01:22:56,291 --> 01:22:57,541
was, I remember thinking that was the
2598
01:22:57,541 --> 01:22:58,416
stupidest thing ever.
2599
01:22:59,041 --> 01:22:59,500
And then it never happens.
2600
01:22:59,500 --> 01:22:59,625
Yeah.
2601
01:22:59,625 --> 01:23:02,041
That's, I mean, they, I mean, if you play it, I don't know.
2602
01:23:02,666 --> 01:23:04,791
They, I mean, if you play Kalista
2603
01:23:04,791 --> 01:23:06,458
protocol, it's not any,
2604
01:23:06,458 --> 01:23:07,166
it doesn't feel like it has
2605
01:23:07,166 --> 01:23:08,416
anything to do with PUBG.
2606
01:23:08,583 --> 01:23:10,250
No, they scrapped that.
2607
01:23:10,250 --> 01:23:11,375
They scrapped that.
2608
01:23:11,375 --> 01:23:11,666
I know.
2609
01:23:11,666 --> 01:23:12,041
I know.
2610
01:23:12,041 --> 01:23:13,958
But like, doesn't feel like there's any
2611
01:23:13,958 --> 01:23:15,041
remnants or anything of that.
2612
01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:18,458
Kalista, I'm really like sad because
2613
01:23:18,458 --> 01:23:20,041
Kalista protocol was very rough.
2614
01:23:20,041 --> 01:23:21,666
It was very good, but if I don't think
2615
01:23:21,666 --> 01:23:22,708
they're going to have another chance with
2616
01:23:22,708 --> 01:23:24,166
that, I think if they made a second one,
2617
01:23:24,166 --> 01:23:24,958
it'd be much better.
2618
01:23:26,250 --> 01:23:26,583
Yeah.
2619
01:23:27,333 --> 01:23:29,166
But at least they gave them a chance.
2620
01:23:29,208 --> 01:23:31,958
Like it was a couple of devs, the old
2621
01:23:31,958 --> 01:23:33,458
devs of dead space that made it.
2622
01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:35,916
Um, I think if they like, at least they
2623
01:23:35,916 --> 01:23:36,416
gave them a chance
2624
01:23:36,416 --> 01:23:37,500
and I love seeing that.
2625
01:23:37,500 --> 01:23:40,875
So we'll at least give Krafton like, at
2626
01:23:40,875 --> 01:23:43,083
least they're given these, um, developers
2627
01:23:43,250 --> 01:23:44,875
that did iconic things
2628
01:23:44,875 --> 01:23:46,875
in the past chances again.
2629
01:23:47,791 --> 01:23:50,958
So I will say PUBG, what was the most,
2630
01:23:50,958 --> 01:23:53,333
was the top played game, like period.
2631
01:23:53,958 --> 01:23:55,958
Top, if you look at top records, number
2632
01:23:55,958 --> 01:23:58,916
one, at PUBG was PUBG at 3 million,
2633
01:23:59,041 --> 01:24:04,291
236,027 concurrent players at the top,
2634
01:24:04,541 --> 01:24:05,541
followed by a black myth.
2635
01:24:05,541 --> 01:24:07,291
Wukong followed by power
2636
01:24:07,291 --> 01:24:09,583
world, followed by CSP here.
2637
01:24:10,625 --> 01:24:11,625
No, no, no, not last year.
2638
01:24:11,625 --> 01:24:12,500
This is just all time.
2639
01:24:12,500 --> 01:24:12,833
It's all time.
2640
01:24:13,208 --> 01:24:13,458
Yeah.
2641
01:24:14,291 --> 01:24:15,541
It's peak was in 2018.
2642
01:24:16,666 --> 01:24:18,250
Wukong's the second.
2643
01:24:18,666 --> 01:24:19,041
Yes.
2644
01:24:19,583 --> 01:24:21,041
Followed by power world.
2645
01:24:22,416 --> 01:24:24,916
Power world's like a online game though.
2646
01:24:25,250 --> 01:24:26,125
Like that makes sense.
2647
01:24:26,416 --> 01:24:26,791
It's not online.
2648
01:24:27,083 --> 01:24:28,625
Well, I mean, you can play on my power.
2649
01:24:28,958 --> 01:24:30,416
It's not like a live service game.
2650
01:24:30,875 --> 01:24:34,041
No, but it's like anything else.
2651
01:24:34,041 --> 01:24:37,333
It's like seven days or any of these, uh,
2652
01:24:37,333 --> 01:24:38,000
survival world builders.
2653
01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:39,583
You almost always play it on
2654
01:24:39,583 --> 01:24:41,000
a server or with someone else.
2655
01:24:41,333 --> 01:24:41,541
Yeah.
2656
01:24:42,000 --> 01:24:43,166
It's much better that way
2657
01:24:43,166 --> 01:24:46,083
that is, but so that makes sense.
2658
01:24:46,583 --> 01:24:48,041
Wukong is kind of an interesting.
2659
01:24:48,708 --> 01:24:50,416
Yeah, because it's almost entirely.
2660
01:24:51,625 --> 01:24:53,041
If I had to guess, it's because of China.
2661
01:24:54,041 --> 01:24:55,083
Yeah, it's gotta be.
2662
01:24:55,500 --> 01:24:56,500
That's still crazy though.
2663
01:24:56,500 --> 01:24:58,458
To be fair, PUBG was also super popular.
2664
01:24:58,666 --> 01:24:59,958
In Asia, in fact, so
2665
01:24:59,958 --> 01:25:00,916
much so that they have.
2666
01:25:01,500 --> 01:25:01,708
Yeah.
2667
01:25:01,750 --> 01:25:02,000
Yeah.
2668
01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:02,791
That's probably why too.
2669
01:25:03,291 --> 01:25:06,916
And then we have CS2, Lost Ark, Dota 2,
2670
01:25:07,666 --> 01:25:09,625
Elden Ring, almost hit a million, but
2671
01:25:09,625 --> 01:25:11,500
they didn't new world.
2672
01:25:11,958 --> 01:25:14,166
Uh, and what the hell is banana?
2673
01:25:15,458 --> 01:25:16,458
What the hell is this?
2674
01:25:17,916 --> 01:25:20,958
It's banana, followed
2675
01:25:20,958 --> 01:25:22,750
by a Baldur's Gate 3.
2676
01:25:24,041 --> 01:25:25,583
Oh, that's cool.
2677
01:25:25,958 --> 01:25:27,291
Banana is probably some gen alpha.
2678
01:25:27,750 --> 01:25:28,708
Let's see what it's.
2679
01:25:28,708 --> 01:25:29,291
The game.
2680
01:25:29,291 --> 01:25:30,291
Is it a clicker?
2681
01:25:30,375 --> 01:25:32,458
It's a, it's a fucking clicker game.
2682
01:25:33,166 --> 01:25:33,500
Yeah.
2683
01:25:34,500 --> 01:25:36,166
Oh, wait, it's this game.
2684
01:25:36,166 --> 01:25:38,208
You get like banana drops and shit.
2685
01:25:40,708 --> 01:25:42,458
Dude, that's live action of
2686
01:25:42,458 --> 01:25:43,708
you finding out is hilarious.
2687
01:25:44,958 --> 01:25:46,291
You're not sharing your screen.
2688
01:25:47,333 --> 01:25:48,333
Oh my God.
2689
01:25:49,416 --> 01:25:50,291
What the fuck?
2690
01:25:50,500 --> 01:25:51,291
Is it on Steam?
2691
01:25:51,791 --> 01:25:52,541
It is on Steam.
2692
01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:55,958
They use the Steam marketplace to like, I
2693
01:25:55,958 --> 01:25:56,958
remember hearing about some
2694
01:25:57,000 --> 01:26:00,250
game where it like, like stuff and people
2695
01:26:00,250 --> 01:26:02,166
started trading bananas and they
2696
01:26:02,166 --> 01:26:02,875
kept playing this game to
2697
01:26:02,875 --> 01:26:05,250
get banana, rare bananas.
2698
01:26:06,166 --> 01:26:06,791
Oh my gosh.
2699
01:26:07,500 --> 01:26:08,333
Fucking bullshit.
2700
01:26:09,041 --> 01:26:10,750
I mean, I hate it, but at the same time,
2701
01:26:10,750 --> 01:26:13,791
I still want to copy this and do like a
2702
01:26:14,083 --> 01:26:15,041
store-based gambling
2703
01:26:15,041 --> 01:26:17,666
system with it and then retire.
2704
01:26:18,541 --> 01:26:19,000
Fuck it.
2705
01:26:19,333 --> 01:26:19,458
I'm kidding.
2706
01:26:19,458 --> 01:26:19,833
I'm kidding.
2707
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:21,125
By the way.
2708
01:26:21,958 --> 01:26:25,291
Uh, yeah, so.
2709
01:26:26,958 --> 01:26:29,791
So speaking of like, we've talked about
2710
01:26:29,791 --> 01:26:31,750
the PS4, PS5 and all that stuff.
2711
01:26:32,375 --> 01:26:33,875
Um, but there's another thing though,
2712
01:26:33,875 --> 01:26:35,916
like we haven't really
2713
01:26:35,916 --> 01:26:36,916
been able to play on the
2714
01:26:37,000 --> 01:26:39,375
deck yet and it looks like you kind of
2715
01:26:39,375 --> 01:26:41,291
can, but Emu deck just
2716
01:26:41,291 --> 01:26:44,166
added, uh, is it Shad PS4?
2717
01:26:44,291 --> 01:26:44,875
That's right.
2718
01:26:45,208 --> 01:26:45,958
Shad PS4.
2719
01:26:45,958 --> 01:26:47,000
It's a PS4 emulator
2720
01:26:47,000 --> 01:26:48,750
and it runs Bloodborne.
2721
01:26:49,416 --> 01:26:51,125
That's all that you need to know.
2722
01:26:51,333 --> 01:26:51,791
You go.
2723
01:26:52,166 --> 01:26:52,833
It runs it okay.
2724
01:26:53,083 --> 01:26:56,208
I watched the videos of, uh, deck wizard.
2725
01:26:56,625 --> 01:26:59,208
Uh, did the deck wizard was your deck?
2726
01:26:59,208 --> 01:27:00,750
What, what, what's his face?
2727
01:27:01,166 --> 01:27:03,500
Um, that's why it and I'm like, yeah, I,
2728
01:27:04,625 --> 01:27:06,708
uh, I wouldn't play it.
2729
01:27:06,708 --> 01:27:07,500
No, I wouldn't either.
2730
01:27:07,916 --> 01:27:08,458
I'd probably wait for
2731
01:27:08,458 --> 01:27:10,958
the two still cool though.
2732
01:27:11,166 --> 01:27:13,625
And it looked like crap, but it looked
2733
01:27:13,625 --> 01:27:15,458
that's, that's, it's a great step.
2734
01:27:15,458 --> 01:27:18,416
And like the cool thing is steam deck two
2735
01:27:18,416 --> 01:27:20,583
comes out this year, you know, with
2736
01:27:20,625 --> 01:27:23,083
half life three, um, with the decker
2737
01:27:23,083 --> 01:27:25,458
support, all that, like it will play fine
2738
01:27:25,458 --> 01:27:28,375
on it there, like the gaming machine.
2739
01:27:28,375 --> 01:27:30,625
It's got half life three and bloodborne
2740
01:27:30,625 --> 01:27:34,916
on that's that's a bonkers.
2741
01:27:35,541 --> 01:27:36,791
That's a bonkers to say.
2742
01:27:37,291 --> 01:27:37,500
Okay.
2743
01:27:38,208 --> 01:27:38,583
I'm down.
2744
01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:39,208
Yeah.
2745
01:27:39,625 --> 01:27:41,833
I'm looking at the Emu deck interface and
2746
01:27:41,833 --> 01:27:43,333
it looks completely different now.
2747
01:27:43,333 --> 01:27:43,875
What the hell?
2748
01:27:43,875 --> 01:27:46,000
I, yeah, it changes every couple months.
2749
01:27:46,916 --> 01:27:49,458
Like, uh, I need to do an updated video
2750
01:27:49,458 --> 01:27:50,958
on installing it and stuff.
2751
01:27:50,958 --> 01:27:52,541
Cause it's, it's different.
2752
01:27:53,250 --> 01:27:55,250
But the nice thing about any deck is that
2753
01:27:55,250 --> 01:27:58,416
like the, like it handles all the
2754
01:27:58,416 --> 01:28:00,000
configuration and that
2755
01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:01,541
is super, super nice.
2756
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:03,708
Any deck handles all of it.
2757
01:28:03,708 --> 01:28:05,458
You don't have to worry about controls.
2758
01:28:05,458 --> 01:28:06,375
You don't have to worry about
2759
01:28:06,375 --> 01:28:08,000
setting up the optimizations.
2760
01:28:08,458 --> 01:28:10,041
It does it all for you.
2761
01:28:10,041 --> 01:28:10,791
It's great.
2762
01:28:11,416 --> 01:28:13,958
Uh, and that's why, that's why it's
2763
01:28:13,958 --> 01:28:16,791
really cool to see shad ps4 being added.
2764
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:18,291
So you can almost play
2765
01:28:18,291 --> 01:28:20,000
bloodborne on here to see that.
2766
01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:20,333
Almost.
2767
01:28:20,750 --> 01:28:20,958
Yeah.
2768
01:28:21,541 --> 01:28:24,000
I mean, but also think about this, right?
2769
01:28:24,291 --> 01:28:26,583
The fact that it's now in here means that
2770
01:28:26,583 --> 01:28:29,541
like, there are, there's incentives
2771
01:28:29,666 --> 01:28:31,000
for the shad ps4
2772
01:28:31,000 --> 01:28:33,000
developers to optimize for the deck.
2773
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:34,916
I mean, there has been, but like, this is
2774
01:28:34,916 --> 01:28:36,833
even cool, even cooler, I think.
2775
01:28:37,500 --> 01:28:38,666
And the deck being like a
2776
01:28:38,666 --> 01:28:39,750
singular hardware target.
2777
01:28:39,833 --> 01:28:40,958
I talk about this all the time.
2778
01:28:41,625 --> 01:28:43,708
It means that like things can be
2779
01:28:43,708 --> 01:28:45,083
developed in a specific
2780
01:28:45,250 --> 01:28:46,875
targeted way for the steam deck.
2781
01:28:47,625 --> 01:28:48,500
I don't know if it's ever going to get
2782
01:28:48,500 --> 01:28:50,500
really good, but it might
2783
01:28:50,541 --> 01:28:52,916
become acceptably good to play.
2784
01:28:53,208 --> 01:28:53,416
Right.
2785
01:28:53,958 --> 01:28:55,208
And that's pretty neat.
2786
01:28:55,541 --> 01:28:55,875
I think.
2787
01:28:57,291 --> 01:28:57,875
Dude.
2788
01:28:58,375 --> 01:28:58,833
Agreed.
2789
01:28:59,041 --> 01:28:59,333
Agreed.
2790
01:28:59,333 --> 01:29:00,166
And there's always like
2791
01:29:00,166 --> 01:29:01,583
improvements going on.
2792
01:29:01,583 --> 01:29:04,208
And because ps4 and the steam deck have
2793
01:29:04,208 --> 01:29:06,041
similar hardware, it can also
2794
01:29:06,041 --> 01:29:07,583
help with the emulation side of things.
2795
01:29:08,291 --> 01:29:08,416
Yeah.
2796
01:29:08,625 --> 01:29:09,791
And also running it at
2797
01:29:09,791 --> 01:29:11,583
like 720p won't hurt.
2798
01:29:12,375 --> 01:29:12,583
Yeah.
2799
01:29:13,541 --> 01:29:13,833
Yeah.
2800
01:29:13,833 --> 01:29:15,333
That's an actually interesting thing.
2801
01:29:16,208 --> 01:29:18,083
They could, this emulator, I don't know
2802
01:29:18,083 --> 01:29:19,958
how they built it, but it should only
2803
01:29:19,958 --> 01:29:21,875
improve, it should get to a point where a
2804
01:29:21,875 --> 01:29:23,416
lot of games should work fine on,
2805
01:29:23,416 --> 01:29:24,958
uh, on the P on the steam deck.
2806
01:29:25,458 --> 01:29:25,708
Yeah.
2807
01:29:26,416 --> 01:29:28,583
Because the architecture so similar, they
2808
01:29:28,583 --> 01:29:30,000
don't really have to emulate much.
2809
01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:32,666
They probably just have to deal with, uh,
2810
01:29:32,666 --> 01:29:34,291
DRM and maybe a couple other issues.
2811
01:29:34,708 --> 01:29:36,791
Do we know how shad ps4
2812
01:29:36,791 --> 01:29:37,750
is doing its emulation?
2813
01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:40,125
Is it like a high level proton thing or
2814
01:29:40,125 --> 01:29:41,125
is it like a low level?
2815
01:29:41,291 --> 01:29:42,500
I hope it's not.
2816
01:29:42,541 --> 01:29:44,333
I, um, I don't know.
2817
01:29:44,333 --> 01:29:44,791
Actually, I thought
2818
01:29:44,791 --> 01:29:45,958
we'd have to look into it.
2819
01:29:46,875 --> 01:29:48,000
I think it is open source though.
2820
01:29:48,250 --> 01:29:48,458
Yes.
2821
01:29:50,916 --> 01:29:52,750
I hope it's not a proton thing because
2822
01:29:52,750 --> 01:29:54,000
they don't really need to do that.
2823
01:29:55,291 --> 01:29:57,916
I wouldn't think it might, it could be
2824
01:29:57,916 --> 01:29:59,208
like LLVM or something.
2825
01:29:59,208 --> 01:29:59,583
I don't know.
2826
01:29:59,583 --> 01:30:03,958
I'm looking at the LLVM is what, um, P R
2827
01:30:03,958 --> 01:30:07,208
P S R PCS three does low level emulation.
2828
01:30:08,166 --> 01:30:09,708
Uh, it's like a low
2829
01:30:09,708 --> 01:30:10,666
level virtual machine.
2830
01:30:11,375 --> 01:30:13,625
It has to do that almost the PS three is
2831
01:30:13,625 --> 01:30:16,500
a very, very weird architected, uh,
2832
01:30:16,500 --> 01:30:20,750
yeah, device, um, very, very different
2833
01:30:20,750 --> 01:30:22,291
compared to other anything else.
2834
01:30:22,291 --> 01:30:24,000
It costs Sony a lot to make the PS three.
2835
01:30:24,250 --> 01:30:26,208
I remember, um, uh, there was a different
2836
01:30:26,208 --> 01:30:28,291
PS four emulator that was like super
2837
01:30:28,291 --> 01:30:30,791
work in progress that essentially was
2838
01:30:30,791 --> 01:30:32,750
like a compatibility layer.
2839
01:30:32,750 --> 01:30:34,125
It was Linux exclusive at the time.
2840
01:30:34,416 --> 01:30:35,041
What was it called?
2841
01:30:35,375 --> 01:30:36,500
Backbone or something like that?
2842
01:30:36,666 --> 01:30:37,000
Spine.
2843
01:30:37,291 --> 01:30:37,750
Something like that.
2844
01:30:37,958 --> 01:30:38,375
Yeah.
2845
01:30:38,375 --> 01:30:39,666
I think it was spine PS
2846
01:30:39,666 --> 01:30:40,750
four or something like that.
2847
01:30:40,750 --> 01:30:41,000
Yeah.
2848
01:30:41,666 --> 01:30:42,250
I don't, I've never heard
2849
01:30:42,250 --> 01:30:43,416
about what happened to that.
2850
01:30:43,875 --> 01:30:46,000
I don't, I also think he just got less
2851
01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:47,791
interested in stock working on it from
2852
01:30:47,791 --> 01:30:49,833
my recollection of disappointing because
2853
01:30:49,833 --> 01:30:50,416
he said it was going
2854
01:30:50,416 --> 01:30:51,333
to make it open source.
2855
01:30:51,541 --> 01:30:53,125
But Hey, we've got shad PS
2856
01:30:53,125 --> 01:30:55,000
four now who needs spine, right?
2857
01:30:55,000 --> 01:30:55,833
I guess.
2858
01:30:56,125 --> 01:30:56,375
Hmm.
2859
01:30:58,166 --> 01:30:58,375
Yeah.
2860
01:30:59,208 --> 01:30:59,500
Yeah.
2861
01:31:01,500 --> 01:31:01,916
So let's go to the
2862
01:31:01,916 --> 01:31:03,458
compatibility list of a game.
2863
01:31:03,625 --> 01:31:07,916
So we have 169 games that are playable,
2864
01:31:09,000 --> 01:31:12,291
213 games that are in game 103 games
2865
01:31:12,291 --> 01:31:15,500
that are in menus, 200 games, 200 games
2866
01:31:15,500 --> 01:31:19,666
that boot up and about 964 games that do
2867
01:31:19,666 --> 01:31:21,666
not work like at all in any capacity.
2868
01:31:24,666 --> 01:31:25,583
So I, oh yeah.
2869
01:31:25,583 --> 01:31:26,541
So I'm reading this.
2870
01:31:26,541 --> 01:31:28,416
It says shad PS four can load some
2871
01:31:28,416 --> 01:31:30,000
modules of look, LLE mode.
2872
01:31:30,458 --> 01:31:32,375
Some are, some are necessary and some
2873
01:31:32,375 --> 01:31:33,833
have HLE replacements.
2874
01:31:35,125 --> 01:31:36,791
So yeah, I'm guessing it is low level
2875
01:31:36,791 --> 01:31:39,541
emulation and some like high level
2876
01:31:39,583 --> 01:31:41,625
emulation, I'm not, I'm not entirely
2877
01:31:41,625 --> 01:31:42,750
privy as to how it works.
2878
01:31:44,458 --> 01:31:45,000
That'll be interesting.
2879
01:31:45,458 --> 01:31:47,416
I'll have to dig into that a little bit.
2880
01:31:47,958 --> 01:31:49,041
It's cool that they added it though.
2881
01:31:49,875 --> 01:31:52,500
Um, curious how they have
2882
01:31:52,500 --> 01:31:53,541
that whole system set up.
2883
01:31:53,541 --> 01:31:55,708
I I've built something semi-similar to
2884
01:31:55,708 --> 01:31:57,500
EmuDeck at one point and I still kind of
2885
01:31:57,541 --> 01:31:58,541
support something like it,
2886
01:31:58,541 --> 01:32:00,541
but I don't do emulation stuff.
2887
01:32:00,916 --> 01:32:03,541
So I will say, uh, some of these modules
2888
01:32:03,541 --> 01:32:05,750
need to, some like modules need to be
2889
01:32:05,750 --> 01:32:08,791
extracted from your own PS4 or I guess
2890
01:32:08,791 --> 01:32:10,000
more accurately downloaded from the
2891
01:32:10,000 --> 01:32:10,750
internet, I don't know where you're going
2892
01:32:10,750 --> 01:32:13,375
to find it because even if I did know, I
2893
01:32:13,375 --> 01:32:14,958
probably wouldn't tell you guys because
2894
01:32:14,958 --> 01:32:17,625
it's the content creator thing to do.
2895
01:32:17,625 --> 01:32:19,000
We wouldn't be very good content creators
2896
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:20,250
if we provided piracy links.
2897
01:32:20,250 --> 01:32:22,458
Now what would we, would we,
2898
01:32:22,916 --> 01:32:25,250
that end also, it opens you up to a lot
2899
01:32:25,250 --> 01:32:26,666
of crap that you don't want to do it.
2900
01:32:27,750 --> 01:32:30,833
Uh, luckily I, I just jail broke my PS4 a
2901
01:32:30,833 --> 01:32:33,000
couple of weeks ago, so I totally could
2902
01:32:33,333 --> 01:32:34,416
do a video about this.
2903
01:32:35,208 --> 01:32:35,666
Maybe you should.
2904
01:32:35,958 --> 01:32:36,166
Yeah.
2905
01:32:36,416 --> 01:32:36,583
Nice.
2906
01:32:37,083 --> 01:32:37,625
Maybe you should.
2907
01:32:38,333 --> 01:32:38,500
Yeah.
2908
01:32:40,291 --> 01:32:40,958
I think it'd be fun.
2909
01:32:41,750 --> 01:32:42,125
It'd be fun.
2910
01:32:42,125 --> 01:32:42,333
Watch.
2911
01:32:42,791 --> 01:32:43,041
Yeah.
2912
01:32:43,916 --> 01:32:44,416
Oh yeah.
2913
01:32:44,916 --> 01:32:47,708
So shad ps4, it's interesting.
2914
01:32:48,000 --> 01:32:50,791
You could play, what, what ps4 exclusives
2915
01:32:50,791 --> 01:32:52,916
are there even if we have bloodborne and,
2916
01:32:53,000 --> 01:32:57,375
a lot of interesting.
2917
01:32:57,916 --> 01:32:58,166
Yeah.
2918
01:32:59,208 --> 01:33:00,375
A lot of the interesting ones have been
2919
01:33:00,375 --> 01:33:02,458
done or like been ported over to PC.
2920
01:33:02,458 --> 01:33:05,541
I feel like for me, you could play the
2921
01:33:05,541 --> 01:33:07,375
ps4 version of God of war three.
2922
01:33:08,083 --> 01:33:10,708
It might even run better than our, it
2923
01:33:10,708 --> 01:33:11,541
might eventually run
2924
01:33:11,541 --> 01:33:13,625
better on shad ps4 than
2925
01:33:13,625 --> 01:33:15,666
our PCS three.
2926
01:33:15,708 --> 01:33:16,583
Yeah.
2927
01:33:17,000 --> 01:33:18,875
Uh, red dead redemption to
2928
01:33:18,875 --> 01:33:20,083
play that, but that's on PC now.
2929
01:33:20,083 --> 01:33:22,458
It's on PC now. Oh, wait. Really?
2930
01:33:23,708 --> 01:33:26,000
I thought just red to turn two was on.
2931
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:26,833
Oh, they just came out
2932
01:33:26,833 --> 01:33:27,875
a couple of months ago.
2933
01:33:27,875 --> 01:33:29,291
Oh, I didn't know that.
2934
01:33:29,541 --> 01:33:29,916
Yeah.
2935
01:33:29,916 --> 01:33:31,458
It was more expensive than red dead to.
2936
01:33:32,583 --> 01:33:36,125
Oh my God, dude.
2937
01:33:36,500 --> 01:33:39,208
Yeah, no, they, they have like, they, I
2938
01:33:39,208 --> 01:33:41,375
think most of the exclusives that I want
2939
01:33:41,375 --> 01:33:45,083
is already like on PC, which I hope Sony
2940
01:33:45,083 --> 01:33:46,000
doesn't go away from that.
2941
01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:47,208
I don't want to say anything to jinx it, but yeah, that's another thing.
2942
01:33:47,666 --> 01:33:50,625
I mean, it's another thing.
2943
01:33:50,916 --> 01:33:51,083
Let's see.
2944
01:33:51,083 --> 01:33:51,291
Huh?
2945
01:33:51,375 --> 01:33:55,625
Let's see that ps4 exclusives not on PC.
2946
01:33:56,791 --> 01:34:01,000
I see bloodborne, of course, naturally.
2947
01:34:03,333 --> 01:34:06,000
Um, deep down.
2948
01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:07,500
Oh wait, that never came out.
2949
01:34:08,041 --> 01:34:10,291
The order of 1860s 1886.
2950
01:34:12,208 --> 01:34:12,916
I don't think that's
2951
01:34:12,916 --> 01:34:15,125
a, that's a good game.
2952
01:34:15,708 --> 01:34:16,000
Horrible replayability.
2953
01:34:16,000 --> 01:34:16,833
Like it's a TV game. It's a replayability.
2954
01:34:16,833 --> 01:34:18,083
Like it's a decent game, but
2955
01:34:18,083 --> 01:34:19,750
it did not get good or claim.
2956
01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:20,500
It gets fun.
2957
01:34:21,416 --> 01:34:21,666
I guess.
2958
01:34:22,291 --> 01:34:22,750
Yeah.
2959
01:34:22,750 --> 01:34:23,833
It's also really short too.
2960
01:34:24,666 --> 01:34:25,458
It's very short.
2961
01:34:25,458 --> 01:34:27,166
That's why it didn't do so well.
2962
01:34:27,166 --> 01:34:28,541
And it has no replayability.
2963
01:34:28,916 --> 01:34:31,833
Gravity rush too is on ps4 as well.
2964
01:34:33,666 --> 01:34:34,000
Let's see.
2965
01:34:34,916 --> 01:34:36,625
The kills on shadow fall.
2966
01:34:37,500 --> 01:34:39,541
Man, that they should revisit kills.
2967
01:34:39,541 --> 01:34:39,916
Oh man.
2968
01:34:39,916 --> 01:34:40,666
I kill zone.
2969
01:34:41,166 --> 01:34:42,500
That was a really good game.
2970
01:34:42,666 --> 01:34:45,166
Um, I actually replayed at least the
2971
01:34:45,166 --> 01:34:46,833
beginning portion like a few months ago
2972
01:34:46,833 --> 01:34:48,291
and it's, it's a really good game.
2973
01:34:48,291 --> 01:34:49,000
It really is.
2974
01:34:49,625 --> 01:34:50,875
See the last guardian.
2975
01:34:52,083 --> 01:34:52,416
Okay.
2976
01:34:52,708 --> 01:34:53,666
That's also ps4.
2977
01:34:53,833 --> 01:34:55,166
Uh, what else is there?
2978
01:34:56,625 --> 01:34:57,833
Uh, there's also
2979
01:34:57,833 --> 01:35:00,750
ratcheting clank 2026 2016.
2980
01:35:01,666 --> 01:35:03,375
Isn't that one didn't they release that
2981
01:35:03,375 --> 01:35:09,041
one on this on PC or is that, that's
2982
01:35:09,041 --> 01:35:09,708
the newest part?
2983
01:35:10,833 --> 01:35:11,000
Yeah.
2984
01:35:11,416 --> 01:35:11,708
Yeah.
2985
01:35:11,708 --> 01:35:14,166
So record of grand crest war.
2986
01:35:14,166 --> 01:35:14,708
What is this?
2987
01:35:14,708 --> 01:35:15,916
Oh, it's a light novel series.
2988
01:35:15,916 --> 01:35:16,500
Nevermind.
2989
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:18,750
See shadow, the Colossus,
2990
01:35:18,958 --> 01:35:21,958
the remake is ps4 exclusive.
2991
01:35:22,708 --> 01:35:23,291
You could play the
2992
01:35:23,291 --> 01:35:25,500
original right now on ps2 on PC.
2993
01:35:26,416 --> 01:35:26,625
Yeah.
2994
01:35:27,083 --> 01:35:28,791
That doesn't work very
2995
01:35:28,791 --> 01:35:29,958
well for me on my steam deck.
2996
01:35:30,166 --> 01:35:31,375
I found really.
2997
01:35:31,583 --> 01:35:33,000
So yeah, I tried playing
2998
01:35:33,000 --> 01:35:34,666
it and it was like 20 FPS.
2999
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:36,708
Well, the game is well, the game like on
3000
01:35:36,708 --> 01:35:38,250
ps2 was like 20 FPS.
3001
01:35:38,541 --> 01:35:39,333
It's got like frame.
3002
01:35:39,458 --> 01:35:39,750
Yeah.
3003
01:35:39,750 --> 01:35:40,375
It's got like frame
3004
01:35:40,375 --> 01:35:42,291
rate issues on the ps2.
3005
01:35:43,500 --> 01:35:45,250
So it's not just your Steve Beck.
3006
01:35:45,541 --> 01:35:46,458
Maybe I don't remember
3007
01:35:46,458 --> 01:35:47,666
playing it very well.
3008
01:35:48,125 --> 01:35:49,250
I think it was just a
3009
01:35:49,250 --> 01:35:51,166
direction that they went with it.
3010
01:35:51,166 --> 01:35:51,541
Yeah.
3011
01:35:51,541 --> 01:35:52,708
It felt like it was,
3012
01:35:52,708 --> 01:35:54,208
uh, it lags slightly.
3013
01:35:54,750 --> 01:35:56,000
Maybe that was just a style that they
3014
01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:56,750
went with or something.
3015
01:35:56,750 --> 01:35:57,541
It was a little frustrating.
3016
01:35:57,833 --> 01:35:58,958
Well, I don't think it was a style.
3017
01:35:58,958 --> 01:36:00,208
I think it just had performance issues
3018
01:36:00,208 --> 01:36:02,375
because of the giant Colossus's class.
3019
01:36:02,750 --> 01:36:04,791
I call it.
3020
01:36:05,166 --> 01:36:05,541
Yeah, probably.
3021
01:36:06,041 --> 01:36:06,666
I don't know.
3022
01:36:06,666 --> 01:36:07,083
But yeah.
3023
01:36:07,125 --> 01:36:11,083
So yeah, I don't know.
3024
01:36:11,083 --> 01:36:12,875
It just felt like it ran a little slower,
3025
01:36:14,000 --> 01:36:15,208
like just any at any time.
3026
01:36:15,750 --> 01:36:18,000
But yeah, yeah, it is what it is.
3027
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:18,333
Let's see.
3028
01:36:18,541 --> 01:36:20,833
Uncharted the Nathan Drake collection.
3029
01:36:21,041 --> 01:36:21,750
What is this?
3030
01:36:22,458 --> 01:36:23,375
That's on style.
3031
01:36:24,250 --> 01:36:24,916
You can get that one,
3032
01:36:24,916 --> 01:36:25,916
two, one, two and three.
3033
01:36:26,750 --> 01:36:27,000
Yep.
3034
01:36:27,291 --> 01:36:30,250
Uh, I thought that was just for you.
3035
01:36:30,250 --> 01:36:31,666
No, you can get the Nathan Drake
3036
01:36:31,666 --> 01:36:32,541
collection on Steam.
3037
01:36:33,041 --> 01:36:34,291
I have it on steam.
3038
01:36:34,916 --> 01:36:35,166
Yep.
3039
01:36:35,750 --> 01:36:37,208
Is that the whole one,
3040
01:36:37,208 --> 01:36:38,083
two and three though?
3041
01:36:38,500 --> 01:36:40,041
No, you got the legacy of fees
3042
01:36:40,041 --> 01:36:41,666
collection, which is different.
3043
01:36:42,333 --> 01:36:43,000
Oh, is it?
3044
01:36:43,291 --> 01:36:43,500
Yeah.
3045
01:36:43,500 --> 01:36:44,666
Cause that has four
3046
01:36:44,666 --> 01:36:45,916
and the one after four.
3047
01:36:45,916 --> 01:36:47,041
That's what it is.
3048
01:36:47,041 --> 01:36:48,583
One, two and three, which is not on PC
3049
01:36:48,583 --> 01:36:51,041
for some reason, which is.
3050
01:36:51,041 --> 01:36:51,500
Okay.
3051
01:36:52,833 --> 01:36:53,541
Yeah, that's right.
3052
01:36:54,750 --> 01:36:56,250
I always mix those up too, but I knew
3053
01:36:56,250 --> 01:36:59,250
that like, ah, I thought it was called
3054
01:36:59,666 --> 01:37:00,208
something else.
3055
01:37:00,458 --> 01:37:00,625
Okay.
3056
01:37:01,958 --> 01:37:02,208
Yeah.
3057
01:37:02,250 --> 01:37:05,833
So there's a lot like we could probably
3058
01:37:05,833 --> 01:37:07,500
do this along, but there's a lot that
3059
01:37:07,500 --> 01:37:08,708
they've already ported over.
3060
01:37:09,208 --> 01:37:09,416
Yeah.
3061
01:37:10,500 --> 01:37:13,791
So it, this is one of the
3062
01:37:13,791 --> 01:37:15,750
ones that I'm less excited for.
3063
01:37:15,750 --> 01:37:16,958
I'm just glad that they did it though.
3064
01:37:16,958 --> 01:37:17,916
I'm glad that someone's doing it.
3065
01:37:17,916 --> 01:37:18,750
I'm glad that there's an emulator.
3066
01:37:19,166 --> 01:37:20,500
I think this will be good, especially
3067
01:37:20,500 --> 01:37:22,291
down the, like in the future.
3068
01:37:22,291 --> 01:37:22,875
This will definitely
3069
01:37:22,875 --> 01:37:23,875
become more important.
3070
01:37:24,458 --> 01:37:24,708
Yeah.
3071
01:37:25,500 --> 01:37:29,666
Um, but I still want to, I want to
3072
01:37:29,666 --> 01:37:30,833
emulate my Mario 64.
3073
01:37:31,666 --> 01:37:32,000
Oh yeah.
3074
01:37:32,000 --> 01:37:34,291
There's also the, uh, face of the North
3075
01:37:34,291 --> 01:37:36,375
star game on peace on a PS4.
3076
01:37:36,583 --> 01:37:37,625
It's a developed by the
3077
01:37:37,625 --> 01:37:38,958
guys behind the Yakuza games.
3078
01:37:39,958 --> 01:37:41,666
It plays like Yakuza, but it featured,
3079
01:37:41,666 --> 01:37:43,541
but it's like in the face of North star
3080
01:37:43,583 --> 01:37:45,375
universe, you guys, you guys
3081
01:37:45,375 --> 01:37:46,416
ever read that or watch it?
3082
01:37:48,083 --> 01:37:50,000
So it's about a martial art.
3083
01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:51,250
It's about a martial artist and like a
3084
01:37:51,250 --> 01:37:53,375
post-apocalyptic nuclear wasteland.
3085
01:37:54,208 --> 01:37:56,041
And he practices a special martial art
3086
01:37:56,041 --> 01:37:57,083
called a Hokuto Shinken.
3087
01:37:58,000 --> 01:38:00,250
And he just makes guys explode by, uh,
3088
01:38:00,250 --> 01:38:01,625
pressing their, pressing their pressure
3089
01:38:01,708 --> 01:38:03,333
points in martial arts fights.
3090
01:38:04,000 --> 01:38:05,000
And it kills a lot of bandits.
3091
01:38:06,125 --> 01:38:06,958
He makes them explode.
3092
01:38:07,333 --> 01:38:08,000
He makes them like
3093
01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:10,083
explode in like gory fashion.
3094
01:38:10,708 --> 01:38:11,291
Sounds fun.
3095
01:38:11,500 --> 01:38:12,583
Sounds like a fun, fun.
3096
01:38:13,291 --> 01:38:13,625
Yeah.
3097
01:38:14,333 --> 01:38:15,833
I was like written in like the eighties,
3098
01:38:15,833 --> 01:38:17,458
I believe it's, it's kind of,
3099
01:38:17,458 --> 01:38:18,208
it's pretty cool though.
3100
01:38:18,375 --> 01:38:20,500
You can watch the anime on like, you can
3101
01:38:20,500 --> 01:38:21,375
watch clips of our YouTube.
3102
01:38:21,666 --> 01:38:22,291
It's kind of fun.
3103
01:38:22,291 --> 01:38:23,250
It's kind of hilarious.
3104
01:38:24,375 --> 01:38:25,416
Exple load.
3105
01:38:26,916 --> 01:38:27,250
Okay.
3106
01:38:28,458 --> 01:38:30,708
They'd be like playing Diablo where it's
3107
01:38:30,708 --> 01:38:31,750
just the enemies explode.
3108
01:38:33,541 --> 01:38:33,750
Yeah.
3109
01:38:33,958 --> 01:38:36,916
So speaking of exploding, Google play is
3110
01:38:36,916 --> 01:38:39,833
fuming with rage at luck be a landlord
3111
01:38:40,291 --> 01:38:42,500
potentially banned on Google play.
3112
01:38:42,791 --> 01:38:43,708
So you guys ever play
3113
01:38:43,708 --> 01:38:45,125
that luck be a landlord?
3114
01:38:46,833 --> 01:38:50,500
So it's a game where you are essentially
3115
01:38:50,500 --> 01:38:53,875
a landlord of sorts, but here's the thing
3116
01:38:53,916 --> 01:38:56,666
though, it features a rule.
3117
01:38:57,000 --> 01:38:58,500
It features a slot machine.
3118
01:38:59,458 --> 01:39:00,666
It's kind of like launcher when that it
3119
01:39:00,666 --> 01:39:02,000
uses slot machine or like it's
3120
01:39:02,000 --> 01:39:04,041
aesthetic, but there's no actual
3121
01:39:04,041 --> 01:39:05,250
gambling, so to speak.
3122
01:39:07,458 --> 01:39:07,750
Interesting.
3123
01:39:08,208 --> 01:39:10,250
And so the, and so according to the
3124
01:39:10,250 --> 01:39:12,958
develop developers, it says here, your
3125
01:39:13,125 --> 01:39:15,458
apps content that is accessible to
3126
01:39:15,458 --> 01:39:16,000
children must be
3127
01:39:16,000 --> 01:39:16,916
appropriate for children.
3128
01:39:16,916 --> 01:39:18,916
Your apps content rating does not take
3129
01:39:18,916 --> 01:39:21,458
into account references to gambling,
3130
01:39:21,708 --> 01:39:24,208
including real or simulated gambling that
3131
01:39:24,208 --> 01:39:25,666
appears in your app.
3132
01:39:28,333 --> 01:39:28,625
Interesting.
3133
01:39:29,416 --> 01:39:31,916
I feel like, I feel like a slot machine
3134
01:39:31,916 --> 01:39:34,458
is like a, like a step
3135
01:39:34,458 --> 01:39:36,250
beyond like gambling.
3136
01:39:36,625 --> 01:39:38,458
Like, I mean, I mean, it is gambling
3137
01:39:38,458 --> 01:39:39,958
whether or not you're
3138
01:39:39,958 --> 01:39:41,375
putting money into it or not.
3139
01:39:42,208 --> 01:39:43,458
Like, and I always thought it was weird
3140
01:39:43,458 --> 01:39:45,791
that like Nintendo added slot machine
3141
01:39:45,791 --> 01:39:48,291
mechanics to fricking super Mario bros.
3142
01:39:48,375 --> 01:39:48,666
Yeah.
3143
01:39:49,791 --> 01:39:50,958
Uh, oh yeah.
3144
01:39:52,291 --> 01:39:52,500
Yeah.
3145
01:39:52,750 --> 01:39:53,833
So you add your own
3146
01:39:53,833 --> 01:39:55,708
symbols to the slot machines.
3147
01:39:55,708 --> 01:39:59,125
It's a rogue, like, okay.
3148
01:40:00,041 --> 01:40:05,416
So it's not quite gambling, but it
3149
01:40:05,416 --> 01:40:06,125
certainly has the
3150
01:40:06,125 --> 01:40:08,500
aesthetics of a slot machine.
3151
01:40:09,833 --> 01:40:10,708
It that's a hard one.
3152
01:40:10,708 --> 01:40:13,250
Cause I don't, I mean poker people, you
3153
01:40:13,250 --> 01:40:14,875
know, I, you can play poker without
3154
01:40:14,875 --> 01:40:16,541
gambling, it's, it's just a card game.
3155
01:40:17,291 --> 01:40:19,916
Yeah. But it does have a lot of like the chips
3156
01:40:19,916 --> 01:40:21,958
and everything like that do symbolize it.
3157
01:40:22,083 --> 01:40:24,625
So this is a part part
3158
01:40:24,625 --> 01:40:25,458
we're starting to blur.
3159
01:40:25,666 --> 01:40:30,000
Like if you pull a lever and like, it's
3160
01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:31,375
like a slot machine and then things
3161
01:40:31,375 --> 01:40:32,833
start to move like a slot machine.
3162
01:40:33,541 --> 01:40:35,375
At what point are you training someone to
3163
01:40:35,375 --> 01:40:36,291
then want to use it?
3164
01:40:36,291 --> 01:40:37,375
An actual slot machine.
3165
01:40:38,166 --> 01:40:42,125
In my opinion, this like doing the poll.
3166
01:40:42,458 --> 01:40:42,833
Oh my God.
3167
01:40:43,291 --> 01:40:44,208
Doing something like this.
3168
01:40:44,250 --> 01:40:45,458
The scroll down to refresh
3169
01:40:45,458 --> 01:40:47,333
is gambling in my opinion.
3170
01:40:47,666 --> 01:40:49,500
Like I take a hard stance on that.
3171
01:40:49,500 --> 01:40:51,625
Like the pull, the swipe to refresh is
3172
01:40:51,625 --> 01:40:53,000
designed as a dark
3173
01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:54,333
pattern to like keep you
3174
01:40:54,333 --> 01:40:54,666
addicted.
3175
01:40:55,291 --> 01:40:57,791
And I think that I'm not saying that this
3176
01:40:57,791 --> 01:41:00,041
guy did that intentionally or anything,
3177
01:41:00,041 --> 01:41:02,166
but like, I think that there's a huge
3178
01:41:02,166 --> 01:41:04,583
difference between like virtual poker
3179
01:41:04,708 --> 01:41:06,291
where you're not putting any money at
3180
01:41:06,291 --> 01:41:10,458
stake and like a slot machine, like an
3181
01:41:10,458 --> 01:41:11,750
actual slot machine in the game.
3182
01:41:12,083 --> 01:41:14,791
I can see that being a bridge too far.
3183
01:41:14,916 --> 01:41:17,875
Yeah, it is unfortunate because this game
3184
01:41:17,875 --> 01:41:19,541
doesn't feature any real gambling.
3185
01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:20,250
Yeah.
3186
01:41:20,500 --> 01:41:22,583
Like say, I don't know, your, your, your
3187
01:41:22,583 --> 01:41:24,875
average gotcha game on Google play.
3188
01:41:25,583 --> 01:41:25,791
Right.
3189
01:41:26,333 --> 01:41:27,708
But I mean, I guess it is.
3190
01:41:27,958 --> 01:41:29,875
I mean, what, let me see
3191
01:41:29,875 --> 01:41:31,125
what this game is rated on.
3192
01:41:31,125 --> 01:41:31,833
Uh, there's a rate.
3193
01:41:31,958 --> 01:41:34,166
Yeah. It's going to like, can they change the
3194
01:41:34,166 --> 01:41:35,916
rating on it and not have it be banned?
3195
01:41:36,125 --> 01:41:37,541
Like, I think they could.
3196
01:41:38,666 --> 01:41:38,833
Yeah.
3197
01:41:38,833 --> 01:41:39,083
Okay.
3198
01:41:39,083 --> 01:41:40,166
That's and then it's
3199
01:41:40,166 --> 01:41:41,333
rated E 10 for everyone.
3200
01:41:41,708 --> 01:41:44,333
For E 10 and gambling themes.
3201
01:41:45,791 --> 01:41:47,875
Is that from ESRB or is that like the
3202
01:41:47,875 --> 01:41:50,666
stupid, um, like automated thing from
3203
01:41:50,666 --> 01:41:51,000
Google?
3204
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:52,791
It's probably, I think it looks like it
3205
01:41:52,791 --> 01:41:54,000
looks like it's a Google thing, but let
3206
01:41:54,000 --> 01:41:55,041
me look at the ESRB
3207
01:41:55,041 --> 01:41:56,166
rating while I'm at it.
3208
01:41:56,791 --> 01:41:59,333
So wait, they went the route and even
3209
01:41:59,333 --> 01:42:00,666
included that said that there's
3210
01:42:00,833 --> 01:42:03,500
gambling themes in it and it's rated E 10
3211
01:42:03,500 --> 01:42:04,750
and they still want to ban it.
3212
01:42:04,750 --> 01:42:05,333
That's crazy.
3213
01:42:05,916 --> 01:42:07,166
And I'll call references too.
3214
01:42:08,416 --> 01:42:09,208
Well, here's the deal.
3215
01:42:09,625 --> 01:42:10,333
I have you ever
3216
01:42:10,333 --> 01:42:12,750
published a game on Google play.
3217
01:42:13,000 --> 01:42:14,291
I've published a few apps and
3218
01:42:14,291 --> 01:42:15,708
they it's a similar process.
3219
01:42:16,250 --> 01:42:16,458
Okay.
3220
01:42:16,958 --> 01:42:19,083
For games specifically, I believe they,
3221
01:42:19,083 --> 01:42:22,541
they have a rating system, but you have
3222
01:42:22,541 --> 01:42:24,041
to get an ESRB rating.
3223
01:42:24,625 --> 01:42:27,583
And so when I posted dude links, I had to
3224
01:42:27,583 --> 01:42:29,083
like fill out this long questionnaire
3225
01:42:29,708 --> 01:42:31,625
that was like, does this, does your game
3226
01:42:31,625 --> 01:42:33,041
have like drug references?
3227
01:42:33,041 --> 01:42:33,666
Does your game have
3228
01:42:33,666 --> 01:42:34,625
this is there violence?
3229
01:42:34,958 --> 01:42:36,666
If there's violence, is it cartoonish?
3230
01:42:36,666 --> 01:42:38,083
Is it, is it real or,
3231
01:42:38,083 --> 01:42:39,083
or simulated violence?
3232
01:42:39,958 --> 01:42:41,291
And so I went through this whole thing
3233
01:42:41,291 --> 01:42:42,583
and then I just got
3234
01:42:42,583 --> 01:42:43,541
slapped with a rating.
3235
01:42:43,625 --> 01:42:45,166
Like I didn't have to submit
3236
01:42:45,166 --> 01:42:47,125
my game to any rating board.
3237
01:42:47,500 --> 01:42:49,166
It just got a rate.
3238
01:42:49,166 --> 01:42:51,208
It wasn't an ESRB.
3239
01:42:51,208 --> 01:42:52,458
It's an ESRB rating.
3240
01:42:52,458 --> 01:42:54,291
I'm pretty, I'm almost a hundred percent.
3241
01:42:54,375 --> 01:42:57,333
I've gone through that for, um, a game
3242
01:42:57,333 --> 01:43:00,583
app, but I didn't realize it was ESRB.
3243
01:43:00,583 --> 01:43:01,375
Like I've gone through that.
3244
01:43:01,375 --> 01:43:02,583
I know what you're talking about exactly.
3245
01:43:04,458 --> 01:43:05,458
And they're pretty strict
3246
01:43:05,458 --> 01:43:06,916
with that type of stuff too.
3247
01:43:07,708 --> 01:43:08,416
I didn't, I don't see.
3248
01:43:08,750 --> 01:43:11,791
On the ESRB, uh, it might not be, I'm
3249
01:43:11,791 --> 01:43:13,583
sorry, but I, it's similar.
3250
01:43:13,875 --> 01:43:15,250
The whole, the whole rating process was
3251
01:43:15,250 --> 01:43:17,750
just like a load of baloney.
3252
01:43:17,750 --> 01:43:19,083
Cause I didn't submit it to anybody.
3253
01:43:19,333 --> 01:43:20,750
It just came up with, yeah.
3254
01:43:20,750 --> 01:43:22,625
Cause I'm pretty sure like you have to
3255
01:43:22,625 --> 01:43:24,583
send your game to the actual ESRB to get
3256
01:43:24,583 --> 01:43:25,750
like an official rating to
3257
01:43:25,750 --> 01:43:27,458
make sure you can do from ESRB.
3258
01:43:27,750 --> 01:43:27,958
Yeah.
3259
01:43:28,000 --> 01:43:29,000
How are they, how are
3260
01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:31,208
they using E10 plus?
3261
01:43:31,500 --> 01:43:33,333
I feel like that would be copyrighted.
3262
01:43:34,291 --> 01:43:35,958
Duh, I hate it if that's copyrighted.
3263
01:43:36,375 --> 01:43:38,000
It doesn't look like, like there's no
3264
01:43:38,000 --> 01:43:40,041
ESRB logo on the rating itself.
3265
01:43:40,416 --> 01:43:42,416
No, I'm sure that's whatever.
3266
01:43:42,666 --> 01:43:44,291
I guess I, okay.
3267
01:43:44,291 --> 01:43:44,500
Whenever.
3268
01:43:44,875 --> 01:43:45,041
Yeah.
3269
01:43:45,333 --> 01:43:46,666
It's let's look, let's
3270
01:43:46,666 --> 01:43:47,666
look at a gotcha game.
3271
01:43:48,041 --> 01:43:48,958
Let's look at a game.
3272
01:43:50,416 --> 01:43:51,583
Oh, Hey, we have a game here.
3273
01:43:51,583 --> 01:43:55,041
Blue archive is rated M 17 plus for
3274
01:43:55,041 --> 01:43:56,916
blood, sexual themes and violence.
3275
01:43:58,166 --> 01:44:00,083
The, the, that rating system, I feel like
3276
01:44:00,083 --> 01:44:00,875
it's pretty sensitive.
3277
01:44:01,250 --> 01:44:04,250
I, when I went through it, like I tried
3278
01:44:04,250 --> 01:44:05,916
it for a game I was going to release and
3279
01:44:05,958 --> 01:44:11,333
I just didn't, and Hey, just a few ticks
3280
01:44:11,333 --> 01:44:13,791
will make it go from everyone to mature.
3281
01:44:14,750 --> 01:44:16,250
Just a little bit of checks that is just
3282
01:44:16,250 --> 01:44:17,000
a little bit of checks.
3283
01:44:17,125 --> 01:44:19,041
We'll really quickly make that go.
3284
01:44:20,166 --> 01:44:22,500
Um, as far as like gambling aesthetics,
3285
01:44:22,500 --> 01:44:23,708
like what we're talking about,
3286
01:44:23,875 --> 01:44:26,791
uh, I mean, if it's clearly a slot
3287
01:44:26,791 --> 01:44:30,000
machine, um, and really mimics that hard,
3288
01:44:30,208 --> 01:44:32,583
then I could see, I, I'd probably rate it
3289
01:44:32,583 --> 01:44:35,125
more in the teens, maybe even mature.
3290
01:44:36,541 --> 01:44:38,375
Cause I mean, I
3291
01:44:38,375 --> 01:44:39,250
wouldn't be opposed to it.
3292
01:44:39,250 --> 01:44:40,625
And I would hope the developers and the
3293
01:44:40,625 --> 01:44:41,125
poster would either.
3294
01:44:41,500 --> 01:44:43,958
I mean, there's not like an ID check when
3295
01:44:43,958 --> 01:44:46,125
they, it's not like Google checks your
3296
01:44:46,125 --> 01:44:49,041
ID when you buy like an M rated game over
3297
01:44:49,041 --> 01:44:49,708
there, it's not like,
3298
01:44:50,208 --> 01:44:53,083
no, but they can also
3299
01:44:53,291 --> 01:44:54,875
like, there's, there's reasons why they
3300
01:44:54,875 --> 01:44:56,166
have the rating system there because they
3301
01:44:56,166 --> 01:44:57,750
can get in trouble if they're exposing
3302
01:44:57,750 --> 01:45:01,000
too many people to, I don't know.
3303
01:45:01,750 --> 01:45:02,708
I think it's weird that
3304
01:45:02,708 --> 01:45:03,458
they banned them though.
3305
01:45:03,500 --> 01:45:07,375
They usually send, um, uh, they usually
3306
01:45:07,375 --> 01:45:08,916
send warnings and stuff like that.
3307
01:45:10,041 --> 01:45:10,500
Especially if it's a
3308
01:45:10,500 --> 01:45:13,416
bigger title in the past.
3309
01:45:13,791 --> 01:45:14,250
Yeah.
3310
01:45:14,250 --> 01:45:15,416
And so, yeah, I don't, I don't
3311
01:45:15,416 --> 01:45:17,125
know what they do these days.
3312
01:45:18,791 --> 01:45:22,583
So apparently they've, uh, so apparently
3313
01:45:22,583 --> 01:45:24,250
they did change it and they did put the
3314
01:45:24,250 --> 01:45:26,541
game back up with the gambling themes,
3315
01:45:26,791 --> 01:45:28,625
with, uh, give the gambling themes now.
3316
01:45:28,625 --> 01:45:31,000
But I guess it's whatever they had to
3317
01:45:31,000 --> 01:45:32,083
fill out the age
3318
01:45:32,083 --> 01:45:33,041
requirement questionnaire
3319
01:45:33,333 --> 01:45:35,000
and they had to like essentially say that
3320
01:45:35,000 --> 01:45:37,041
the game contains gambling.
3321
01:45:38,375 --> 01:45:39,291
They didn't do that before.
3322
01:45:39,541 --> 01:45:40,208
I guess not.
3323
01:45:40,208 --> 01:45:40,416
Yeah.
3324
01:45:41,333 --> 01:45:42,125
That's that's going to, oh yeah.
3325
01:45:42,333 --> 01:45:42,666
Oh yeah.
3326
01:45:43,000 --> 01:45:43,875
That's going to knock you.
3327
01:45:43,875 --> 01:45:44,291
You got it.
3328
01:45:44,500 --> 01:45:45,250
You there.
3329
01:45:45,666 --> 01:45:46,666
It luck be a landlord
3330
01:45:46,666 --> 01:45:48,333
is at fault on this one.
3331
01:45:48,333 --> 01:45:50,208
Um, their rating system
3332
01:45:50,208 --> 01:45:51,708
is pretty explicit on this.
3333
01:45:52,583 --> 01:45:58,041
I just went to, uh, my game, uh, on
3334
01:45:58,041 --> 01:46:00,500
Google play from a,
3335
01:46:00,500 --> 01:46:05,000
uh, a, a, uh, VPN through
3336
01:46:05,000 --> 01:46:08,708
a VPN in Korea, and it changed my rating
3337
01:46:08,708 --> 01:46:12,041
to a seven rather than an E 10 plus.
3338
01:46:12,583 --> 01:46:13,000
Yeah.
3339
01:46:13,000 --> 01:46:14,875
And so it looks like Google's rating
3340
01:46:14,875 --> 01:46:16,833
system, like we'll
3341
01:46:16,833 --> 01:46:17,625
convert it into whatever
3342
01:46:17,750 --> 01:46:19,375
your locale, uh,
3343
01:46:19,625 --> 01:46:22,416
native, uh, rating system is.
3344
01:46:22,916 --> 01:46:23,666
You should see him.
3345
01:46:23,666 --> 01:46:25,166
So he rated at 18 plus.
3346
01:46:27,416 --> 01:46:27,708
Yeah.
3347
01:46:28,125 --> 01:46:30,208
I'm sure that they have like a scale
3348
01:46:30,208 --> 01:46:32,041
depending on where they're at that rates.
3349
01:46:33,250 --> 01:46:36,083
But like, they probably have like lawyers
3350
01:46:36,083 --> 01:46:37,625
and stuff that help with that too.
3351
01:46:37,625 --> 01:46:39,833
And so, I guess that makes sense.
3352
01:46:40,375 --> 01:46:40,583
Yeah.
3353
01:46:42,666 --> 01:46:43,000
Interesting.
3354
01:46:43,625 --> 01:46:45,333
So you partially that's so that they can
3355
01:46:45,333 --> 01:46:47,000
keep their own rating system and not get,
3356
01:46:47,541 --> 01:46:49,708
uh, overruled by
3357
01:46:49,708 --> 01:46:51,291
governments and stuff like that.
3358
01:46:51,291 --> 01:46:52,166
They're trying to play nice
3359
01:46:52,166 --> 01:46:53,583
so they don't get taken over.
3360
01:46:54,041 --> 01:46:54,250
Yeah.
3361
01:46:54,583 --> 01:46:57,041
So speaking of capitalism, you guys ever
3362
01:46:57,041 --> 01:46:58,166
heard of a gig called recent here?
3363
01:46:59,250 --> 01:46:59,416
No.
3364
01:47:00,416 --> 01:47:03,000
So it's an old, it's like, it's like an
3365
01:47:03,000 --> 01:47:04,583
older game at this point, but essentially
3366
01:47:04,583 --> 01:47:07,458
it was a game released in 2007 in Japan.
3367
01:47:08,541 --> 01:47:10,750
You essentially take the role of a, uh, a
3368
01:47:10,750 --> 01:47:12,541
shopkeeper that also has to go into like
3369
01:47:12,541 --> 01:47:14,458
a dungeon to get loot to sell in your
3370
01:47:14,458 --> 01:47:15,791
done into selling your shop.
3371
01:47:17,708 --> 01:47:20,000
And it's getting a, uh, it's getting a
3372
01:47:20,000 --> 01:47:23,333
remaster in the year of 2025, which
3373
01:47:23,333 --> 01:47:24,333
I think is pretty crazy.
3374
01:47:24,666 --> 01:47:26,583
I've even attached some memes and we've
3375
01:47:26,583 --> 01:47:27,625
even had some memes too.
3376
01:47:28,666 --> 01:47:29,041
Nice.
3377
01:47:29,791 --> 01:47:32,958
But, uh, it's one of the most arguably
3378
01:47:32,958 --> 01:47:34,958
one of the more influential like games
3379
01:47:34,958 --> 01:47:37,500
that it's like every, like you've seen a
3380
01:47:37,500 --> 01:47:39,041
bunch of games, the indie games these
3381
01:47:39,041 --> 01:47:42,416
days try to balance between like a shop,
3382
01:47:42,416 --> 01:47:44,666
cozy shop, aesthetic, and like a
3383
01:47:44,666 --> 01:47:46,083
hardcore dungeon crawler, right?
3384
01:47:46,916 --> 01:47:48,500
Like we've seen that with, uh,
3385
01:47:48,500 --> 01:47:51,458
moonlighter and whatnot.
3386
01:47:51,458 --> 01:47:52,208
I haven't played anything
3387
01:47:52,208 --> 01:47:53,500
like it, but I've seen it.
3388
01:47:53,500 --> 01:47:53,666
Yeah.
3389
01:47:54,250 --> 01:47:54,500
Yeah.
3390
01:47:54,500 --> 01:47:55,916
So it's kind of basically like that.
3391
01:47:57,208 --> 01:47:59,583
Except a lot of people argue that this
3392
01:47:59,583 --> 01:48:00,625
game is a lot better than moonlight.
3393
01:48:00,625 --> 01:48:01,583
I haven't played moonlighter though, to
3394
01:48:01,583 --> 01:48:06,166
be honest, but it's an older game.
3395
01:48:06,833 --> 01:48:08,000
And it says, it does catch
3396
01:48:08,000 --> 01:48:09,708
phrases like capitalism ho.
3397
01:48:09,958 --> 01:48:20,291
Oh, translation man are always so funny.
3398
01:48:21,041 --> 01:48:21,250
Yeah.
3399
01:48:22,125 --> 01:48:22,583
Yeah.
3400
01:48:22,583 --> 01:48:24,666
It's the most capitalist game ever,
3401
01:48:25,125 --> 01:48:25,958
potentially the
3402
01:48:25,958 --> 01:48:28,083
antithesis to disco lesion.
3403
01:48:29,958 --> 01:48:31,166
I thought, I thought it was pretty funny
3404
01:48:31,166 --> 01:48:34,125
because a lot of games are trying to be
3405
01:48:34,125 --> 01:48:36,166
this game, but they, I don't know.
3406
01:48:36,166 --> 01:48:37,041
There's something about this
3407
01:48:37,041 --> 01:48:38,166
that just makes it timeless.
3408
01:48:40,875 --> 01:48:42,875
It, it looks interesting.
3409
01:48:43,125 --> 01:48:45,625
Uh, so is it going to be on what's the HD
3410
01:48:45,625 --> 01:48:46,666
remaster going to be on?
3411
01:48:47,541 --> 01:48:49,208
Uh, we don't know anything about it
3412
01:48:49,208 --> 01:48:51,041
besides the fact that was it on before?
3413
01:48:51,500 --> 01:48:52,375
I don't know.
3414
01:48:52,375 --> 01:48:52,583
Really.
3415
01:48:53,000 --> 01:48:53,958
Was it on PC before?
3416
01:48:53,958 --> 01:48:54,958
So it most likely be on steam.
3417
01:48:55,666 --> 01:48:55,916
Okay.
3418
01:48:56,291 --> 01:48:56,500
Yeah.
3419
01:48:56,500 --> 01:48:57,875
They released, they did release on steam,
3420
01:48:57,875 --> 01:48:59,833
uh, steam like back in, it's like one of
3421
01:48:59,833 --> 01:49:01,291
the first non-triple a
3422
01:49:01,291 --> 01:49:04,458
games games on steam.
3423
01:49:04,458 --> 01:49:04,666
Yeah.
3424
01:49:04,666 --> 01:49:06,750
See, I, I do not know
3425
01:49:06,750 --> 01:49:07,833
anything about this game.
3426
01:49:08,375 --> 01:49:08,458
Hmm.
3427
01:49:09,750 --> 01:49:10,500
You should play it.
3428
01:49:10,500 --> 01:49:11,416
It's a lot of fun.
3429
01:49:12,208 --> 01:49:12,791
Oh, there's a demo.
3430
01:49:13,791 --> 01:49:14,708
This is the remake though.
3431
01:49:15,000 --> 01:49:16,375
No, this is the original.
3432
01:49:18,791 --> 01:49:18,958
Yeah.
3433
01:49:20,708 --> 01:49:21,208
Oh, you know what?
3434
01:49:21,208 --> 01:49:22,083
This actually looks kind of fun.
3435
01:49:23,458 --> 01:49:24,916
I think I have actually seen this.
3436
01:49:24,916 --> 01:49:26,083
It's just been so long.
3437
01:49:27,291 --> 01:49:27,541
Yeah.
3438
01:49:27,541 --> 01:49:28,250
There's, yeah.
3439
01:49:29,041 --> 01:49:29,541
I don't know.
3440
01:49:29,541 --> 01:49:30,541
It's, it's been a long time
3441
01:49:30,541 --> 01:49:32,583
since this game like cannot.
3442
01:49:34,375 --> 01:49:36,291
I think when it comes with the remake, if
3443
01:49:36,291 --> 01:49:38,750
it, uh, with the HD remaster, that is, as
3444
01:49:38,750 --> 01:49:40,583
long as the steam deck, uh, I might play
3445
01:49:40,583 --> 01:49:41,833
it on the steam deck.
3446
01:49:42,500 --> 01:49:44,000
It's always been like 18 years since this
3447
01:49:44,000 --> 01:49:45,916
game came out in 2007.
3448
01:49:46,291 --> 01:49:46,958
That's crazy.
3449
01:49:49,166 --> 01:49:49,916
I can definitely see that
3450
01:49:49,916 --> 01:49:51,541
justifying an HD remaster.
3451
01:49:55,000 --> 01:49:55,208
Yeah.
3452
01:49:56,166 --> 01:49:56,833
That's interesting.
3453
01:49:57,916 --> 01:49:59,958
There's a lot of, we're going to be
3454
01:49:59,958 --> 01:50:00,625
getting so many more
3455
01:50:00,625 --> 01:50:01,750
HD remasters of stuff.
3456
01:50:02,083 --> 01:50:05,458
I'm surprised we are not getting one of
3457
01:50:05,458 --> 01:50:08,000
like PlayStation five games yet.
3458
01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:09,333
They're starting to do them so soon.
3459
01:50:09,625 --> 01:50:10,625
So this is nice to see like an
3460
01:50:10,625 --> 01:50:12,416
older game actually get this.
3461
01:50:12,916 --> 01:50:13,458
Oh yeah.
3462
01:50:14,791 --> 01:50:19,291
So hopefully you're okay with me adding a
3463
01:50:19,291 --> 01:50:20,458
new topic at the end of this
3464
01:50:20,458 --> 01:50:21,583
because it's a new year.
3465
01:50:22,166 --> 01:50:23,500
Oh yeah.
3466
01:50:23,500 --> 01:50:25,541
I'm really curious with you guys, what
3467
01:50:25,541 --> 01:50:27,166
you guys are, uh, what your guys'
3468
01:50:27,166 --> 01:50:28,291
plans are for 2025.
3469
01:50:29,166 --> 01:50:31,166
It could be either like, I'm going to be trying to play it like
3470
01:50:31,250 --> 01:50:34,458
beat a game every month is one of my like
3471
01:50:34,458 --> 01:50:37,000
gaming, uh, resolutions.
3472
01:50:37,666 --> 01:50:40,125
Not everyone does a resolution, but I
3473
01:50:40,125 --> 01:50:41,750
need to start beating more games.
3474
01:50:41,750 --> 01:50:43,750
I've been playing a lot, but I haven't
3475
01:50:43,750 --> 01:50:44,833
been finishing it and it's not
3476
01:50:44,833 --> 01:50:46,500
been very satisfying as a gamer.
3477
01:50:47,458 --> 01:50:48,875
Yeah.
3478
01:50:48,875 --> 01:50:50,208
I mean, it sounds about right.
3479
01:50:50,458 --> 01:50:51,833
That's, that's what I want to do too.
3480
01:50:53,583 --> 01:50:55,791
Even if it's just one game I beat and
3481
01:50:55,791 --> 01:50:57,416
it's something that's like a five hour
3482
01:50:57,416 --> 01:50:59,000
game, I just want to start beating some
3483
01:50:59,000 --> 01:50:59,958
more games, especially in my backlog.
3484
01:51:00,791 --> 01:51:03,166
It feels good.
3485
01:51:03,875 --> 01:51:04,666
Let's just say that it feels
3486
01:51:04,666 --> 01:51:05,708
good to complete something.
3487
01:51:06,541 --> 01:51:06,750
Yeah.
3488
01:51:08,041 --> 01:51:11,916
So for 2025, I want to get a chest mass
3489
01:51:11,916 --> 01:51:13,500
finished and out the door.
3490
01:51:14,666 --> 01:51:16,875
Uh, that's my goal.
3491
01:51:17,458 --> 01:51:18,541
That's a good goal.
3492
01:51:18,541 --> 01:51:19,583
Are you pretty close on that?
3493
01:51:22,375 --> 01:51:23,958
I like to think that I am.
3494
01:51:24,666 --> 01:51:26,041
I have, okay.
3495
01:51:26,041 --> 01:51:28,041
So like I added some mechanics to the
3496
01:51:28,041 --> 01:51:28,666
game recently that has a
3497
01:51:28,708 --> 01:51:30,083
recently that have
3498
01:51:30,083 --> 01:51:32,833
really made it a lot more fun.
3499
01:51:33,833 --> 01:51:35,958
Um, which I'm really excited about.
3500
01:51:36,625 --> 01:51:38,916
Uh, and, but really I think the biggest
3501
01:51:38,916 --> 01:51:40,083
thing is like, I'm done with
3502
01:51:40,125 --> 01:51:41,666
mechanics and I just need to
3503
01:51:41,666 --> 01:51:43,500
finish like the art and polish.
3504
01:51:44,666 --> 01:51:47,875
Um, I probably have, if I were to like,
3505
01:51:47,875 --> 01:51:49,541
just buckle down and just work on that
3506
01:51:49,666 --> 01:51:51,208
exclusively, I'd probably have a couple
3507
01:51:51,208 --> 01:51:53,416
months left, but you know,
3508
01:51:53,833 --> 01:51:55,000
realities being what they are.
3509
01:51:55,000 --> 01:51:57,166
I don't think I can afford to do that.
3510
01:51:57,375 --> 01:51:57,625
Yeah.
3511
01:51:58,250 --> 01:51:59,458
Less life service games,
3512
01:52:00,000 --> 01:52:03,250
more, uh, games I can beat per se.
3513
01:52:04,208 --> 01:52:06,791
Cause I mean, inevitably, I mean like the
3514
01:52:06,791 --> 01:52:07,958
one life service game I played
3515
01:52:07,958 --> 01:52:09,250
a lot was destiny too.
3516
01:52:09,250 --> 01:52:10,791
And I think at that point we, I got a
3517
01:52:10,791 --> 01:52:13,458
sense of finality out of that.
3518
01:52:13,875 --> 01:52:16,083
I like, cause like the main story arc
3519
01:52:16,083 --> 01:52:18,083
that was with us for like 10 years or so
3520
01:52:18,083 --> 01:52:19,541
is gone is done now.
3521
01:52:20,083 --> 01:52:21,708
So I don't see much
3522
01:52:21,708 --> 01:52:22,791
else left for me there.
3523
01:52:23,375 --> 01:52:25,541
And, uh, I mean, Hey,
3524
01:52:26,541 --> 01:52:27,541
start beating games again.
3525
01:52:28,291 --> 01:52:29,625
Not, not the whole haven't been being
3526
01:52:29,625 --> 01:52:32,625
games, but like a lot more of them, you
3527
01:52:32,625 --> 01:52:34,750
know, I haven't been, I've been getting
3528
01:52:34,750 --> 01:52:36,583
like halfway through games and I'm not
3529
01:52:36,583 --> 01:52:38,416
usually like that with, with games.
3530
01:52:38,416 --> 01:52:40,000
I really like, I usually finished them
3531
01:52:40,000 --> 01:52:42,791
and I have not been like that, uh, this
3532
01:52:42,791 --> 01:52:44,166
past year, which is crazy.
3533
01:52:44,750 --> 01:52:47,500
So like Baldur's gate three,
3534
01:52:47,500 --> 01:52:48,541
I would like to finish that.
3535
01:52:49,250 --> 01:52:50,791
Um, it's really fun game.
3536
01:52:51,083 --> 01:52:52,666
Not my usually the type of game I'd play.
3537
01:52:53,000 --> 01:52:54,375
Like I didn't really care for the older
3538
01:52:54,375 --> 01:52:56,000
Baldur gates, but the new one is pretty
3539
01:52:56,083 --> 01:53:00,708
good, but yeah, there's, there's just, I
3540
01:53:00,708 --> 01:53:02,958
like to finish some stuff like that on
3541
01:53:02,958 --> 01:53:05,458
top of that, like I'm gonna, I don't
3542
01:53:05,458 --> 01:53:06,000
think I'm going to be
3543
01:53:06,000 --> 01:53:06,875
able to finish the game
3544
01:53:06,875 --> 01:53:07,750
I'm working on this year.
3545
01:53:07,958 --> 01:53:09,666
It's going to be, uh, this year's going
3546
01:53:09,666 --> 01:53:11,166
to be like a big discovery for the game
3547
01:53:11,166 --> 01:53:12,666
I'm working on in the sense of like
3548
01:53:12,666 --> 01:53:15,083
finalizing the style and stuff, but not
3549
01:53:15,458 --> 01:53:16,916
like, I'm not going to be flushing out
3550
01:53:16,916 --> 01:53:19,375
more than just the first level or two
3551
01:53:19,708 --> 01:53:21,666
until I feel like it's in a good place.
3552
01:53:22,833 --> 01:53:24,041
So beyond that.
3553
01:53:25,041 --> 01:53:28,333
Uh, yeah, like content wise games
3554
01:53:28,333 --> 01:53:29,125
revealed, I'll put,
3555
01:53:29,125 --> 01:53:29,583
I'm going to be working
3556
01:53:29,583 --> 01:53:30,583
on my website a lot more.
3557
01:53:30,916 --> 01:53:32,208
I have like a couple of cool things
3558
01:53:32,208 --> 01:53:33,000
coming out for that.
3559
01:53:33,541 --> 01:53:35,416
That'll be fun, but yeah.
3560
01:53:36,458 --> 01:53:36,708
Nice.
3561
01:53:36,708 --> 01:53:37,541
It's going to be a fun year.
3562
01:53:37,541 --> 01:53:38,166
It's going to be a fun year.
3563
01:53:38,166 --> 01:53:41,750
I always, I always like using the new
3564
01:53:41,750 --> 01:53:43,166
year as a look, kind of a, feel like a
3565
01:53:43,166 --> 01:53:45,333
reset of like, what did I mess up on?
3566
01:53:45,333 --> 01:53:46,708
And what can I kind of feel
3567
01:53:46,708 --> 01:53:48,625
like I can do more of this year?
3568
01:53:48,625 --> 01:53:48,750
Yeah.
3569
01:53:49,291 --> 01:53:49,500
Yeah.
3570
01:53:50,125 --> 01:53:52,875
I just came up with like an art style for
3571
01:53:52,875 --> 01:53:55,583
the card, the mechanic and in chest
3572
01:53:55,583 --> 01:53:58,125
mass, so I've been working on getting
3573
01:53:58,125 --> 01:54:00,875
those, uh, getting some of those done.
3574
01:54:01,875 --> 01:54:04,875
Um, but yeah, the big limiting factor
3575
01:54:04,875 --> 01:54:06,958
with the, with the, is
3576
01:54:06,958 --> 01:54:08,000
going to be doing the art.
3577
01:54:08,166 --> 01:54:09,666
I'm not really a great artist.
3578
01:54:09,708 --> 01:54:11,875
So I don't know.
3579
01:54:11,875 --> 01:54:14,041
I've been really struggling to find an
3580
01:54:14,041 --> 01:54:14,916
art style that works
3581
01:54:14,916 --> 01:54:16,250
that I can actually execute.
3582
01:54:19,041 --> 01:54:23,208
So when is the friends and family, uh,
3583
01:54:23,208 --> 01:54:24,291
play test going to happen?
3584
01:54:24,916 --> 01:54:26,041
And when are we going to get it?
3585
01:54:26,041 --> 01:54:27,041
One for chest mass?
3586
01:54:27,166 --> 01:54:27,541
Yeah.
3587
01:54:28,708 --> 01:54:30,500
If you want to play it.
3588
01:54:30,500 --> 01:54:31,166
No, I'll play it.
3589
01:54:31,375 --> 01:54:33,458
No, the reason I asked like, is it once
3590
01:54:33,458 --> 01:54:34,291
it's going to hit gold,
3591
01:54:35,708 --> 01:54:36,625
but I do, I do want to
3592
01:54:36,625 --> 01:54:37,250
play it.
3593
01:54:37,416 --> 01:54:37,583
Yeah.
3594
01:54:37,791 --> 01:54:38,458
I'll try that too.
3595
01:54:38,708 --> 01:54:39,791
It's like a, it's like a
3596
01:54:39,791 --> 01:54:40,875
chess rogue, like, right?
3597
01:54:42,083 --> 01:54:42,291
Yeah.
3598
01:54:42,583 --> 01:54:42,791
Yeah.
3599
01:54:43,166 --> 01:54:43,916
It's a chess.
3600
01:54:44,541 --> 01:54:45,625
Um, it's like a strive
3601
01:54:45,625 --> 01:54:47,041
strategy puzzle game.
3602
01:54:47,583 --> 01:54:49,708
So, uh, with rogue like elements.
3603
01:54:50,000 --> 01:54:53,041
So the board, there's a, like a standard
3604
01:54:53,041 --> 01:54:54,833
size chess board at the
3605
01:54:54,833 --> 01:54:55,666
beginning of each level.
3606
01:54:55,958 --> 01:54:58,416
And you have to control both the red and
3607
01:54:58,416 --> 01:55:01,291
the black pieces to earn enough points to
3608
01:55:01,333 --> 01:55:03,458
spawn the King, and then you have to use
3609
01:55:03,458 --> 01:55:05,375
whatever pieces you have left to capture
3610
01:55:05,375 --> 01:55:05,833
the King.
3611
01:55:06,583 --> 01:55:08,833
Um, it's really fun.
3612
01:55:10,041 --> 01:55:12,125
And I will send you guys keys right now.
3613
01:55:12,791 --> 01:55:13,208
Do it.
3614
01:55:13,375 --> 01:55:13,708
Do it.
3615
01:55:13,708 --> 01:55:15,125
I'll play it.
3616
01:55:15,750 --> 01:55:16,458
How's, uh,
3617
01:55:17,458 --> 01:55:19,791
and your website and everything doing any
3618
01:55:19,791 --> 01:55:22,208
cool new, uh, updates to your website.
3619
01:55:24,375 --> 01:55:25,541
Updates to my, I'm
3620
01:55:25,541 --> 01:55:27,000
constantly updating my website.
3621
01:55:27,500 --> 01:55:31,541
I actually just added a feature in chess
3622
01:55:31,541 --> 01:55:35,541
mess that lets you like play a daily seed
3623
01:55:36,041 --> 01:55:38,125
with a leaderboard for that seed.
3624
01:55:38,416 --> 01:55:39,666
And my website is
3625
01:55:39,666 --> 01:55:40,875
controlling that leaderboard.
3626
01:55:41,125 --> 01:55:44,791
Oh, so, uh, if you, if someone plays it
3627
01:55:44,791 --> 01:55:47,083
right now, and then they go
3628
01:55:47,125 --> 01:55:47,958
to the website, you can
3629
01:55:47,958 --> 01:55:50,208
actually see a listing of the top.
3630
01:55:50,916 --> 01:55:53,000
It's not a hundred percent working yet
3631
01:55:53,000 --> 01:55:54,791
because it's not ranking properly, but
3632
01:55:54,791 --> 01:55:56,125
it shows you the daily seed
3633
01:55:56,125 --> 01:55:57,416
and it ranks them properly.
3634
01:55:58,708 --> 01:56:00,875
Um, okay.
3635
01:56:01,583 --> 01:56:01,916
That's cool.
3636
01:56:02,458 --> 01:56:02,875
Yeah.
3637
01:56:03,375 --> 01:56:04,500
I do like, I do actually
3638
01:56:04,500 --> 01:56:05,666
like that is a cool feature.
3639
01:56:05,666 --> 01:56:06,833
I'm really curious to see it all.
3640
01:56:07,041 --> 01:56:08,750
I have to see it play out.
3641
01:56:08,958 --> 01:56:09,666
I'm having a hard time
3642
01:56:09,666 --> 01:56:11,333
managing, uh, imagining this.
3643
01:56:11,708 --> 01:56:12,791
So cool.
3644
01:56:13,291 --> 01:56:13,708
Um, yeah, yeah.
3645
01:56:15,708 --> 01:56:15,791
Awesome.
3646
01:56:16,333 --> 01:56:18,333
It's definitely something else.
3647
01:56:18,583 --> 01:56:21,083
Like for this year that you guys, uh, you
3648
01:56:21,083 --> 01:56:22,041
plan on it or should
3649
01:56:22,041 --> 01:56:23,333
we wrap this episode up?
3650
01:56:24,166 --> 01:56:26,208
Um, plan and get more videos out as per
3651
01:56:26,208 --> 01:56:28,291
usual, making it bigger in
3652
01:56:28,291 --> 01:56:29,541
the world of content creation.
3653
01:56:30,375 --> 01:56:31,500
It's always a bit of a, it's always a bit
3654
01:56:31,500 --> 01:56:34,291
of a grind, but I'm always down speed.
3655
01:56:34,500 --> 01:56:37,125
If it's a grind, but I'm curious, like
3656
01:56:37,125 --> 01:56:37,875
you bring that up,
3657
01:56:37,875 --> 01:56:38,708
like, are you going to be
3658
01:56:38,708 --> 01:56:39,750
doing something different this year?
3659
01:56:40,791 --> 01:56:45,125
Um, maybe more detailed videos, longer,
3660
01:56:45,125 --> 01:56:47,291
more detailed videos is my plan.
3661
01:56:48,708 --> 01:56:48,916
Yeah.
3662
01:56:49,500 --> 01:56:50,875
I do want to review more stuff though,
3663
01:56:50,875 --> 01:56:53,041
because my like non-steamed, like related
3664
01:56:53,083 --> 01:56:54,458
reviews don't do all that well.
3665
01:56:54,875 --> 01:56:56,583
Like I just reviewed a controller called
3666
01:56:56,583 --> 01:56:59,750
the game start tarantula pro and that's a
3667
01:56:59,750 --> 01:57:00,375
pretty cool feature.
3668
01:57:00,625 --> 01:57:02,000
So basically, you know, how a lot of
3669
01:57:02,000 --> 01:57:04,166
gamers have issues with like the button
3670
01:57:04,166 --> 01:57:05,041
legends, like they don't
3671
01:57:05,041 --> 01:57:07,000
know where X is for A or B.
3672
01:57:07,625 --> 01:57:08,958
So this has a feature where it
3673
01:57:08,958 --> 01:57:10,833
mechanically changes
3674
01:57:10,833 --> 01:57:12,208
depending on the mode you switch,
3675
01:57:13,291 --> 01:57:14,625
which is kind of interesting.
3676
01:57:16,000 --> 01:57:19,000
And, uh, I mean, aside from that though,
3677
01:57:19,000 --> 01:57:20,333
it's a very competent controller.
3678
01:57:20,333 --> 01:57:22,458
It also has a PS4 mode that lets you, uh,
3679
01:57:22,916 --> 01:57:24,791
yeah, play games as, as though you're
3680
01:57:24,791 --> 01:57:27,041
using a dual shock for, which is kind of
3681
01:57:27,041 --> 01:57:28,291
crazy to me, but that
3682
01:57:28,291 --> 01:57:29,500
is, that is actually
3683
01:57:29,500 --> 01:57:30,416
very nice depending on
3684
01:57:30,416 --> 01:57:31,375
what type of game it is.
3685
01:57:32,250 --> 01:57:32,458
Yeah.
3686
01:57:33,500 --> 01:57:35,000
But, uh, it, uh, yeah, also
3687
01:57:35,000 --> 01:57:35,791
has giant and all that stuff.
3688
01:57:35,833 --> 01:57:38,500
But I mean, yeah, I do want to, I do want
3689
01:57:38,500 --> 01:57:40,166
to review more non-steamed like
3690
01:57:40,166 --> 01:57:41,916
related stuff and hopefully I'm not sure
3691
01:57:41,916 --> 01:57:43,500
how to make that, you know, make those
3692
01:57:43,500 --> 01:57:45,375
videos go do a little better.
3693
01:57:46,583 --> 01:57:51,125
Um, like it's just like, yeah, I mean,
3694
01:57:51,125 --> 01:57:52,750
you can always ask them what kind of, uh,
3695
01:57:52,750 --> 01:57:54,500
hardware they're like excited for, for
3696
01:57:54,500 --> 01:57:55,625
this year and try to reach out to those
3697
01:57:55,625 --> 01:57:58,375
companies for reviews or for copies.
3698
01:57:58,958 --> 01:58:03,833
Um, yeah, I mean, there's the controllers
3699
01:58:03,833 --> 01:58:05,541
are a hard one because they're, you know,
3700
01:58:06,375 --> 01:58:07,166
the controller for me,
3701
01:58:07,166 --> 01:58:09,000
there's a controller, right?
3702
01:58:09,250 --> 01:58:10,791
And so for me, I love, I
3703
01:58:10,791 --> 01:58:12,000
just like this controller.
3704
01:58:12,416 --> 01:58:14,875
Um, I, the only one I'm excited for is
3705
01:58:14,875 --> 01:58:16,333
the steam controller too.
3706
01:58:17,500 --> 01:58:20,541
Uh, anything else is a little too extra
3707
01:58:20,541 --> 01:58:21,333
because I'm more of a mouse
3708
01:58:21,333 --> 01:58:24,750
keyboard person anyways, but I don't know
3709
01:58:24,750 --> 01:58:25,750
anything that's exciting.
3710
01:58:26,000 --> 01:58:26,666
I mean, I'm always
3711
01:58:26,666 --> 01:58:28,166
down to see cool things.
3712
01:58:28,750 --> 01:58:30,000
That's just my opinion on that.
3713
01:58:30,791 --> 01:58:35,750
Me, I find that like my videos do best if
3714
01:58:35,750 --> 01:58:41,416
it's an interesting topic and only,
3715
01:58:41,416 --> 01:58:42,708
I don't know, I don't, I feel like I
3716
01:58:42,708 --> 01:58:44,083
sometimes go into really big details
3717
01:58:44,083 --> 01:58:45,583
on some of my videos and they do worse.
3718
01:58:47,958 --> 01:58:50,458
So it's finding that balance for me and,
3719
01:58:50,458 --> 01:58:54,500
and, and posting more like consistently.
3720
01:58:54,791 --> 01:58:56,208
I know gardener, like you post what twice
3721
01:58:56,208 --> 01:58:58,083
a week and you're pretty consistent with
3722
01:58:59,166 --> 01:58:59,291
Yeah.
3723
01:59:00,625 --> 01:59:00,916
Yeah.
3724
01:59:00,916 --> 01:59:03,458
I'm in terms of like content stuff this
3725
01:59:03,458 --> 01:59:05,916
year, I want to focus more on evergreen
3726
01:59:06,000 --> 01:59:08,958
content because right now, like the, my
3727
01:59:08,958 --> 01:59:11,083
best, my best performing videos are our
3728
01:59:11,083 --> 01:59:12,750
news videos and after a
3729
01:59:12,750 --> 01:59:14,041
week they get no views.
3730
01:59:14,791 --> 01:59:17,541
So I want to have videos that like, we'll
3731
01:59:17,541 --> 01:59:19,833
have a life beyond just
3732
01:59:20,666 --> 01:59:22,375
the weekly news, you know,
3733
01:59:22,833 --> 01:59:26,708
what kind of a game, cause like reviews
3734
01:59:26,708 --> 01:59:29,041
can be evergreen content, but they even
3735
01:59:29,041 --> 01:59:32,625
die out a little faster than like tips
3736
01:59:32,625 --> 01:59:34,458
and tricks, chips and tricks will last a
3737
01:59:34,458 --> 01:59:35,083
little longer.
3738
01:59:35,875 --> 01:59:36,000
Yeah.
3739
01:59:36,000 --> 01:59:36,625
What kind of evergreen
3740
01:59:36,625 --> 01:59:37,750
content are you thinking about?
3741
01:59:38,791 --> 01:59:40,583
Uh, stuff about like
3742
01:59:40,583 --> 01:59:42,666
emulation and stuff like that.
3743
01:59:42,916 --> 01:59:48,416
Probably like, I've done essays and they
3744
01:59:48,416 --> 01:59:51,166
can work, but like, I don't know.
3745
01:59:51,583 --> 01:59:54,458
I, the, the thing is like right now where
3746
01:59:54,458 --> 01:59:57,500
I am in business and in my personal life,
3747
01:59:57,708 --> 01:59:58,958
I don't have a lot of time
3748
01:59:58,958 --> 02:00:00,416
to do stuff for the channel.
3749
02:00:01,250 --> 02:00:05,250
And, uh, I can't justify the cost of like
3750
02:00:05,250 --> 02:00:08,041
investing way, like so much time,
3751
02:00:08,125 --> 02:00:09,625
like, like some other creators can.
3752
02:00:10,416 --> 02:00:14,041
Um, so for me, it's like, you know, I
3753
02:00:14,041 --> 02:00:14,791
want to focus on
3754
02:00:14,791 --> 02:00:16,708
things that continue to get,
3755
02:00:17,750 --> 02:00:22,833
um, views, but also I don't have to spend
3756
02:00:22,833 --> 02:00:25,208
hours making, you know?
3757
02:00:25,666 --> 02:00:25,875
Yeah.
3758
02:00:26,250 --> 02:00:28,083
Cause in the past, like when I was, I
3759
02:00:28,083 --> 02:00:30,166
worked a full time job and then I just
3760
02:00:30,250 --> 02:00:34,000
did YouTube and back then it didn't seem
3761
02:00:34,000 --> 02:00:36,166
that ridiculous to have YouTube as a
3762
02:00:36,166 --> 02:00:39,791
hobby and I would spend, you know, 15,
3763
02:00:39,791 --> 02:00:43,500
20, 30 hours on a video and it seemed
3764
02:00:43,583 --> 02:00:45,791
fine, but now that I like work for myself
3765
02:00:45,791 --> 02:00:46,708
full time, I have to
3766
02:00:46,916 --> 02:00:50,291
like put food on my own table and it's,
3767
02:00:50,291 --> 02:00:52,083
uh, I understand crazy.
3768
02:00:52,208 --> 02:00:52,708
Yeah.
3769
02:00:52,708 --> 02:00:54,000
It's, it's, it's much harder.
3770
02:00:54,458 --> 02:00:57,208
And I find myself reaching for the news a
3771
02:00:57,208 --> 02:00:58,125
lot more these days too.
3772
02:00:58,125 --> 02:00:59,458
Cause I used to do a lot more green.
3773
02:01:00,125 --> 02:01:00,333
Yeah.
3774
02:01:01,208 --> 02:01:04,875
Um, yeah, I just stuff that would last a
3775
02:01:04,875 --> 02:01:06,500
lot longer, but they're so hard, like
3776
02:01:06,500 --> 02:01:09,333
tips and tricks or recording the steam
3777
02:01:09,333 --> 02:01:10,875
deck and doing guides and stuff was
3778
02:01:10,875 --> 02:01:13,041
just so much harder and it didn't like
3779
02:01:13,041 --> 02:01:15,958
over time it works well, but things
3780
02:01:16,041 --> 02:01:17,708
were changing so much I'd have to change.
3781
02:01:18,000 --> 02:01:19,333
I got tired of it and stopped doing it
3782
02:01:19,333 --> 02:01:21,000
because guides would go out of date.
3783
02:01:21,750 --> 02:01:23,333
And then you just get tons of angry
3784
02:01:23,333 --> 02:01:24,666
comments and I hate that.
3785
02:01:24,666 --> 02:01:26,208
And I don't want to list the video cause
3786
02:01:26,208 --> 02:01:27,500
then it just really screws up everything
3787
02:01:27,541 --> 02:01:27,958
else.
3788
02:01:28,500 --> 02:01:28,708
Yeah.
3789
02:01:28,750 --> 02:01:32,916
And so, yeah, I need to do some more
3790
02:01:32,916 --> 02:01:35,166
long-term content too.
3791
02:01:35,375 --> 02:01:38,541
That's, uh, tips oriented.
3792
02:01:38,541 --> 02:01:39,208
It'd be interesting.
3793
02:01:39,625 --> 02:01:40,166
It'd be a fun year.
3794
02:01:40,375 --> 02:01:41,250
It'll be a fun year.
3795
02:01:41,250 --> 02:01:43,083
Like I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm with you on that.
3796
02:01:43,125 --> 02:01:45,833
I'm trying to find my own, uh, balancing
3797
02:01:45,833 --> 02:01:49,375
of time and, and doing everything else.
3798
02:01:49,583 --> 02:01:51,791
Cause you're a busy person, gardener.
3799
02:01:51,791 --> 02:01:52,625
I'm surprised you're able
3800
02:01:52,625 --> 02:01:54,083
to get the videos of you out.
3801
02:01:54,291 --> 02:01:55,000
You do get out.
3802
02:01:56,875 --> 02:01:57,166
Yeah.
3803
02:01:57,833 --> 02:02:01,875
I may, I, I reserve one day a week or
3804
02:02:01,875 --> 02:02:04,333
well, one day per video to get them done.
3805
02:02:05,000 --> 02:02:06,250
And then I do the rest of my
3806
02:02:06,250 --> 02:02:07,875
work around, around those days.
3807
02:02:08,791 --> 02:02:09,000
Interesting.
3808
02:02:09,875 --> 02:02:10,125
Yeah.
3809
02:02:10,625 --> 02:02:12,416
If I can't do a video in one day, I
3810
02:02:12,416 --> 02:02:13,750
generally won't do it.
3811
02:02:13,750 --> 02:02:15,875
And I have a pretty good handle on how
3812
02:02:15,875 --> 02:02:17,166
long something will take me.
3813
02:02:18,583 --> 02:02:18,916
Yeah.
3814
02:02:19,541 --> 02:02:20,833
I'm, I'm similar to these days.
3815
02:02:20,833 --> 02:02:22,250
I want to do more videos
3816
02:02:22,250 --> 02:02:24,166
that do be that include B roll.
3817
02:02:24,166 --> 02:02:25,916
Like I have a 3d printer video that I've
3818
02:02:25,916 --> 02:02:27,333
been, that I've on and off
3819
02:02:27,333 --> 02:02:30,458
but wanted to do over the past year.
3820
02:02:31,208 --> 02:02:32,375
Cause I've done one already.
3821
02:02:32,666 --> 02:02:35,041
That was like a few years ago, but it
3822
02:02:35,041 --> 02:02:35,666
takes a lot of work.
3823
02:02:36,166 --> 02:02:36,458
Yeah.
3824
02:02:36,708 --> 02:02:38,375
I have a 3d printer video coming too,
3825
02:02:38,625 --> 02:02:39,625
which I'm really excited about.
3826
02:02:39,666 --> 02:02:40,083
Ooh.
3827
02:02:40,416 --> 02:02:41,750
You got 3d print some stuff for us.
3828
02:02:42,208 --> 02:02:42,500
Yeah.
3829
02:02:43,000 --> 02:02:43,708
It's going to be cool.
3830
02:02:44,916 --> 02:02:45,458
That's exciting.
3831
02:02:45,791 --> 02:02:47,625
I, I need to do some more collections of,
3832
02:02:47,625 --> 02:02:48,583
is this steam deck related
3833
02:02:48,583 --> 02:02:49,916
or just a 3d printed?
3834
02:02:50,583 --> 02:02:51,500
It's steam deck related.
3835
02:02:51,833 --> 02:02:52,000
Yeah.
3836
02:02:53,708 --> 02:02:54,250
Well, damn.
3837
02:02:54,791 --> 02:02:55,000
Yeah.
3838
02:02:55,500 --> 02:02:55,708
Yeah.
3839
02:02:55,708 --> 02:02:57,083
I better get mine out quickly then.
3840
02:02:57,083 --> 02:02:57,833
No, just kidding.
3841
02:02:59,166 --> 02:02:59,750
There's no way I'm
3842
02:02:59,750 --> 02:03:00,916
getting mine out anytime soon.
3843
02:03:01,916 --> 02:03:06,625
Uh, there's a, there's, there's a video I
3844
02:03:06,625 --> 02:03:09,041
wanted to do and I still, I have
3845
02:03:09,125 --> 02:03:09,750
it planned.
3846
02:03:09,833 --> 02:03:11,250
It's a hundred things you can do on the
3847
02:03:11,250 --> 02:03:13,125
steam deck video, but
3848
02:03:13,125 --> 02:03:14,333
it's a very daunting
3849
02:03:14,500 --> 02:03:14,833
video.
3850
02:03:15,916 --> 02:03:16,125
Yeah.
3851
02:03:16,875 --> 02:03:17,500
A hundred things.
3852
02:03:19,125 --> 02:03:19,375
Yeah.
3853
02:03:19,375 --> 02:03:20,875
I have a, I'm not kidding.
3854
02:03:20,875 --> 02:03:23,750
I have a 22 page script that I just have
3855
02:03:23,750 --> 02:03:27,916
not recorded because it's just what's so
3856
02:03:27,916 --> 02:03:28,500
long.
3857
02:03:29,583 --> 02:03:33,500
It, uh, I'm not going to say, but it's,
3858
02:03:33,500 --> 02:03:38,416
it's, uh, it's things you didn't know
3859
02:03:38,458 --> 02:03:39,333
about the steam deck.
3860
02:03:39,333 --> 02:03:39,625
Okay.
3861
02:03:39,625 --> 02:03:40,166
I'll say it.
3862
02:03:40,666 --> 02:03:42,458
And it's 22 pages long.
3863
02:03:43,000 --> 02:03:43,333
Yeah.
3864
02:03:44,000 --> 02:03:47,250
And it's like lots of little tiny like
3865
02:03:47,250 --> 02:03:48,666
things that you didn't know.
3866
02:03:49,500 --> 02:03:51,333
And the longer I sit on it, the less
3867
02:03:51,333 --> 02:03:54,541
relevant it becomes, but it's so, I just
3868
02:03:54,541 --> 02:03:55,791
know that it's going to be like an hour
3869
02:03:55,791 --> 02:04:00,041
long video and I just editing that is
3870
02:04:00,041 --> 02:04:00,958
going to be a pain in the ass.
3871
02:04:01,291 --> 02:04:03,500
So you want to know how you do that.
3872
02:04:04,208 --> 02:04:06,375
You, you, you record the hour long video
3873
02:04:06,375 --> 02:04:08,125
and then for each point you break it off
3874
02:04:08,291 --> 02:04:09,166
and don't release it.
3875
02:04:09,166 --> 02:04:10,958
You just break it off into a short.
3876
02:04:11,791 --> 02:04:13,208
And you probably don't do shorts, but
3877
02:04:13,208 --> 02:04:14,708
shorts are still like important for
3878
02:04:14,750 --> 02:04:15,625
channel growth.
3879
02:04:15,625 --> 02:04:19,625
And so that's also how I've thought about
3880
02:04:19,625 --> 02:04:20,875
doing like the hundred things you can do
3881
02:04:20,875 --> 02:04:21,500
on steam deck.
3882
02:04:21,500 --> 02:04:22,625
But once again, like I said, like you
3883
02:04:22,625 --> 02:04:24,333
were talking, it's, it
3884
02:04:24,333 --> 02:04:25,041
could be an hour long
3885
02:04:25,083 --> 02:04:25,541
video.
3886
02:04:26,250 --> 02:04:27,333
It's going to be annoying to edit.
3887
02:04:27,333 --> 02:04:28,375
And is it going to do well?
3888
02:04:28,958 --> 02:04:31,708
Like I think it will, but that's a lot of
3889
02:04:31,708 --> 02:04:33,500
time to dedicate to something.
3890
02:04:33,916 --> 02:04:34,250
Yeah.
3891
02:04:35,166 --> 02:04:35,958
I have a feeling that
3892
02:04:35,958 --> 02:04:37,958
it'll do really well, but
3893
02:04:38,791 --> 02:04:40,166
I just haven't done it.
3894
02:04:40,833 --> 02:04:42,458
I have something similar
3895
02:04:42,458 --> 02:04:45,041
like that too, but it's yeah.
3896
02:04:45,500 --> 02:04:46,416
I don't really have any
3897
02:04:46,416 --> 02:04:47,958
grand plans for anybody is.
3898
02:04:48,375 --> 02:04:50,625
I probably should, but I don't.
3899
02:04:50,625 --> 02:04:51,125
I just kind of do
3900
02:04:51,125 --> 02:04:53,000
whatever, whatever you like it.
3901
02:04:53,583 --> 02:04:54,208
You've had some pretty
3902
02:04:54,208 --> 02:04:55,916
grand plans in the past though.
3903
02:04:56,500 --> 02:04:59,500
Like you've done, uh, multiple series.
3904
02:05:00,458 --> 02:05:01,291
Yeah, I have.
3905
02:05:02,666 --> 02:05:03,166
That's true.
3906
02:05:03,166 --> 02:05:06,291
I, I, I have my monthly game overviews.
3907
02:05:06,291 --> 02:05:07,458
They just tend to do pretty well.
3908
02:05:08,208 --> 02:05:11,250
As well as, um, what else have I done?
3909
02:05:13,083 --> 02:05:14,041
Oh, steam sales.
3910
02:05:14,041 --> 02:05:15,375
I cover those too.
3911
02:05:16,416 --> 02:05:16,583
Okay.
3912
02:05:16,958 --> 02:05:17,208
Yeah.
3913
02:05:17,208 --> 02:05:17,458
Yeah.
3914
02:05:17,750 --> 02:05:18,458
I used to do that,
3915
02:05:18,458 --> 02:05:21,750
but I, it got so boring.
3916
02:05:23,500 --> 02:05:23,791
Yeah.
3917
02:05:24,041 --> 02:05:25,500
Lots of stuff like the steam deck
3918
02:05:25,500 --> 02:05:28,416
masterclass series, which I would do more
3919
02:05:28,416 --> 02:05:31,291
of, but I'm trying to figure out what
3920
02:05:31,291 --> 02:05:33,458
more I could do with it.
3921
02:05:33,500 --> 02:05:37,458
Besides just remaking the episodes for a
3922
02:05:37,458 --> 02:05:40,500
modern, like, because the steam deck
3923
02:05:40,500 --> 02:05:42,875
does change because the steaming does
3924
02:05:42,875 --> 02:05:44,958
change quite a bit because of, uh, well,
3925
02:05:45,250 --> 02:05:50,833
you know, yeah, yeah, it does change.
3926
02:05:50,833 --> 02:05:51,666
And there's new things
3927
02:05:51,666 --> 02:05:52,500
that are added to it.
3928
02:05:53,208 --> 02:05:53,500
Okay.
3929
02:05:55,833 --> 02:05:58,958
I mean, there's always RTX because
3930
02:05:58,958 --> 02:06:02,000
there's some games that will use RTX or,
3931
02:06:02,083 --> 02:06:03,458
uh, ray tracing starting to RTX.
3932
02:06:03,500 --> 02:06:07,541
But retracing cheese, uh, but yeah.
3933
02:06:08,791 --> 02:06:09,416
Oh, okay.
3934
02:06:09,875 --> 02:06:11,000
I mean, it sounds like it's going to be
3935
02:06:11,000 --> 02:06:11,958
an interesting year though.
3936
02:06:12,250 --> 02:06:14,583
Like if half-life comes out, I'll
3937
02:06:14,583 --> 02:06:16,000
guarantee that there's going to probably
3938
02:06:16,000 --> 02:06:18,250
be like 10 videos for me on that.
3939
02:06:18,666 --> 02:06:21,000
Um, uh, anything valve comes out with,
3940
02:06:21,000 --> 02:06:21,833
they'll be, you know, be
3941
02:06:21,833 --> 02:06:22,958
multiple videos on that.
3942
02:06:23,875 --> 02:06:25,791
Uh, I probably should start preparing my
3943
02:06:25,791 --> 02:06:27,500
video for CES for next week and
3944
02:06:27,500 --> 02:06:28,750
just start preparing a script.
3945
02:06:29,291 --> 02:06:29,875
Yeah, you should.
3946
02:06:29,875 --> 02:06:30,833
I want to do that too, actually.
3947
02:06:32,083 --> 02:06:36,250
So, and then also, let's just, I'm just
3948
02:06:36,250 --> 02:06:38,250
really hoping that next week's episode
3949
02:06:38,250 --> 02:06:40,291
of this will be really, really fun
3950
02:06:40,291 --> 02:06:41,458
because we had a really
3951
02:06:41,458 --> 02:06:43,125
interesting drop at CES.
3952
02:06:43,958 --> 02:06:44,166
Yeah.
3953
02:06:45,333 --> 02:06:46,250
So there's something I was hoping.
3954
02:06:46,791 --> 02:06:49,083
I'm curious what the audience's plans are
3955
02:06:49,083 --> 02:06:50,833
for this year and why
3956
02:06:50,833 --> 02:06:52,833
isn't it subscribed to this show?
3957
02:06:53,583 --> 02:06:54,083
Exactly.
3958
02:06:54,666 --> 02:06:55,416
I like that.
3959
02:06:56,750 --> 02:06:58,000
Why, why is it not that?
3960
02:06:58,625 --> 02:06:59,583
Why aren't you subscribed?
3961
02:06:59,583 --> 02:07:00,291
Why didn't you like?
3962
02:07:00,875 --> 02:07:03,208
Yeah, get subscribed, follow us on the
3963
02:07:03,208 --> 02:07:06,708
Fetaverse and, uh, and hang out and let
3964
02:07:06,708 --> 02:07:08,041
us know what you think of
3965
02:07:08,041 --> 02:07:09,500
the show and YouTube as well.
3966
02:07:10,125 --> 02:07:10,666
And YouTube.
3967
02:07:10,666 --> 02:07:10,875
Yeah.
3968
02:07:11,583 --> 02:07:12,583
Yeah, exactly.
3969
02:07:13,500 --> 02:07:14,791
Like, and what else are you
3970
02:07:14,791 --> 02:07:15,916
doing game wise this year?
3971
02:07:16,166 --> 02:07:17,083
If you, if you have a
3972
02:07:17,083 --> 02:07:17,916
way to give us feedback.
3973
02:07:18,666 --> 02:07:18,875
Yeah.
3974
02:07:21,208 --> 02:07:22,000
New device you're buying?
3975
02:07:22,750 --> 02:07:22,958
Yes.
3976
02:07:24,458 --> 02:07:25,500
Well, uh, one more thing.
3977
02:07:25,500 --> 02:07:26,000
Wait for those tariffs.
3978
02:07:26,333 --> 02:07:26,583
One more thing.
3979
02:07:26,583 --> 02:07:31,666
We leave if Lenovo does in fact, come out
3980
02:07:31,666 --> 02:07:35,166
with a lesion go S with steam OS built
3981
02:07:35,250 --> 02:07:36,666
into it, why are you
3982
02:07:36,666 --> 02:07:37,500
guys going to review it?
3983
02:07:39,000 --> 02:07:39,958
I probably will.
3984
02:07:40,416 --> 02:07:40,958
Yes.
3985
02:07:41,250 --> 02:07:42,750
If I can get my hands on it, if I can get
3986
02:07:42,750 --> 02:07:43,625
my hands on it, if it's going to be a
3987
02:07:43,625 --> 02:07:46,083
really annoying to buy and let's, because
3988
02:07:46,083 --> 02:07:47,916
I've, I've bought stuff and then I did a,
3989
02:07:47,916 --> 02:07:50,875
like I've, I've, I've recorded B roll and
3990
02:07:50,875 --> 02:07:52,916
done videos to almost a point where I
3991
02:07:52,916 --> 02:07:55,250
released it, but it was so far past that
3992
02:07:55,250 --> 02:07:56,083
I didn't feel like it was relevant.
3993
02:07:56,333 --> 02:07:57,500
And that's a me problem
3994
02:07:57,500 --> 02:07:59,125
that I didn't release videos.
3995
02:07:59,333 --> 02:08:01,500
I probably sitting on like multiple
3996
02:08:01,500 --> 02:08:02,208
videos I've not
3997
02:08:02,208 --> 02:08:03,958
released over the past year and
3998
02:08:03,958 --> 02:08:06,958
a half, as long as it's within the first
3999
02:08:06,958 --> 02:08:08,708
month or two, then yeah, I'm fine with
4000
02:08:08,708 --> 02:08:10,333
that after that, I, I
4001
02:08:10,333 --> 02:08:11,000
don't know if I will.
4002
02:08:11,708 --> 02:08:14,583
I will do everything in my power to get a
4003
02:08:14,583 --> 02:08:16,791
pre-release version of it.
4004
02:08:16,791 --> 02:08:19,541
So please, yeah, I highly doubt I'd be
4005
02:08:19,541 --> 02:08:21,583
able to pull one, but even if I can get
4006
02:08:21,583 --> 02:08:24,500
a day one, I'll try to get one.
4007
02:08:25,583 --> 02:08:25,958
Yeah.
4008
02:08:25,958 --> 02:08:27,916
So next, next week's going
4009
02:08:27,916 --> 02:08:29,083
to be an interesting week.
4010
02:08:29,416 --> 02:08:31,000
Uh, it's not some Monday, right?
4011
02:08:32,500 --> 02:08:34,958
Or let me see when it starts actually.
4012
02:08:35,625 --> 02:08:38,500
So Tuesday, Tuesday
4013
02:08:38,500 --> 02:08:40,333
working from home that day.
4014
02:08:40,333 --> 02:08:41,041
Very nice.
4015
02:08:41,041 --> 02:08:41,708
Very nice.
4016
02:08:42,041 --> 02:08:42,500
Like makes me.
4017
02:08:44,500 --> 02:08:44,916
That's good.
4018
02:08:46,000 --> 02:08:47,125
I might do a video each
4019
02:08:47,125 --> 02:08:48,958
day just to kind of recap.
4020
02:08:49,916 --> 02:08:50,250
Really?
4021
02:08:50,250 --> 02:08:52,333
Surely there's not going to be that much,
4022
02:08:52,333 --> 02:08:54,458
like super relevant to us every day.
4023
02:08:54,458 --> 02:08:54,791
Right.
4024
02:08:55,625 --> 02:08:56,416
Or you can talk about
4025
02:08:56,416 --> 02:08:57,500
robots and stuff too.
4026
02:08:58,208 --> 02:08:59,166
I'll talk about robots.
4027
02:08:59,416 --> 02:09:00,375
I'll talk about 3d printing.
4028
02:09:01,500 --> 02:09:02,250
Yeah.
4029
02:09:04,166 --> 02:09:04,500
Yeah.
4030
02:09:05,250 --> 02:09:06,750
I'm going to each day is insane though.
4031
02:09:07,041 --> 02:09:10,000
Like I see deck wizard making video every
4032
02:09:10,000 --> 02:09:13,666
day and like I respect, I respect
4033
02:09:13,666 --> 02:09:14,208
the work ethic.
4034
02:09:14,875 --> 02:09:15,875
I don't think I can do that.
4035
02:09:15,875 --> 02:09:17,875
Even if it's like not really all that
4036
02:09:17,875 --> 02:09:18,875
edited, to be honest.
4037
02:09:19,708 --> 02:09:19,791
Hmm.
4038
02:09:20,791 --> 02:09:23,458
I dude, honestly, like the longest part
4039
02:09:23,458 --> 02:09:25,541
of my entire production process is the
4040
02:09:25,541 --> 02:09:29,750
writing, like I spend a solid four hours
4041
02:09:29,750 --> 02:09:31,500
or five hours writing a video.
4042
02:09:31,958 --> 02:09:35,375
And then I record for 25 to 40 minutes.
4043
02:09:35,708 --> 02:09:37,750
And then I edit it in like an hour.
4044
02:09:38,375 --> 02:09:40,541
Like I'm a really fast video editor.
4045
02:09:41,958 --> 02:09:44,125
My editing's the longest part of mine.
4046
02:09:44,333 --> 02:09:44,541
Really?
4047
02:09:44,708 --> 02:09:46,750
So I always absolutely, but I've changed
4048
02:09:46,750 --> 02:09:48,416
the way my videos are.
4049
02:09:48,458 --> 02:09:50,541
I put, I'll put like fun memes and stuff
4050
02:09:50,541 --> 02:09:51,916
in it just cause I have fun
4051
02:09:51,916 --> 02:09:53,208
to kind of adding certain things.
4052
02:09:54,291 --> 02:09:56,083
But I, it's just a different iteration on
4053
02:09:56,083 --> 02:09:57,583
like, I'm kind of changed how I've
4054
02:09:57,583 --> 02:09:59,250
released videos cause I used to do a lot
4055
02:09:59,250 --> 02:10:02,958
like more research upfront and then
4056
02:10:03,416 --> 02:10:04,125
recorded it.
4057
02:10:04,125 --> 02:10:04,791
I used to release
4058
02:10:04,791 --> 02:10:05,916
videos almost every day.
4059
02:10:06,458 --> 02:10:10,625
In fact, there was for, uh, in order to
4060
02:10:10,625 --> 02:10:12,250
get my channel to where it was, like, I
4061
02:10:12,250 --> 02:10:14,458
think for three months, four months, I
4062
02:10:14,458 --> 02:10:15,625
released a video every day.
4063
02:10:16,458 --> 02:10:19,125
Um, did fairly well, burnt out.
4064
02:10:20,333 --> 02:10:22,125
And so trying to get back into like
4065
02:10:22,125 --> 02:10:23,416
releasing just a couple times a week.
4066
02:10:24,416 --> 02:10:28,416
Cause it's fun, but I have a lot of fun,
4067
02:10:28,416 --> 02:10:32,958
but the problem comes down to deciding
4068
02:10:32,958 --> 02:10:34,541
what kind of, what, what does focus on
4069
02:10:34,541 --> 02:10:37,041
deciding what to do and writing
4070
02:10:37,166 --> 02:10:38,958
sometimes can be very daunting.
4071
02:10:39,416 --> 02:10:44,208
And so, yeah, I usually get stuck up in
4072
02:10:44,208 --> 02:10:45,000
the editing process.
4073
02:10:45,000 --> 02:10:47,375
I, I can record multiple videos, but
4074
02:10:47,375 --> 02:10:48,708
editing still different.
4075
02:10:49,916 --> 02:10:51,250
Cause I want to meet, I, yeah, well I'll
4076
02:10:51,250 --> 02:10:52,708
sit there and polish it for too long.
4077
02:10:52,708 --> 02:10:53,541
And it just doesn't matter.
4078
02:10:54,750 --> 02:10:55,041
Yeah.
4079
02:10:57,125 --> 02:10:57,416
Yeah.
4080
02:10:57,416 --> 02:11:00,083
For me, besides like, if I'm capturing B
4081
02:11:00,083 --> 02:11:01,166
roll, that's going to be the
4082
02:11:01,166 --> 02:11:03,916
longest part of my videos, but like, I
4083
02:11:03,916 --> 02:11:05,541
can, I can throw together like a
4084
02:11:05,541 --> 02:11:07,333
video really, really quickly now.
4085
02:11:09,458 --> 02:11:09,666
Yeah.
4086
02:11:09,875 --> 02:11:11,875
If I'm not adding B roll or anything
4087
02:11:11,875 --> 02:11:13,250
that's over, like it's just me talking.
4088
02:11:13,583 --> 02:11:16,291
I can get it edited in like 20 minutes, I
4089
02:11:16,291 --> 02:11:17,833
guess, as long as the video is,
4090
02:11:18,458 --> 02:11:20,708
which is not usually 20, but if I'm
4091
02:11:20,708 --> 02:11:22,958
adding anything really, sometimes
4092
02:11:22,958 --> 02:11:23,791
I have stuff prepared.
4093
02:11:23,791 --> 02:11:25,958
Sometimes I don't.
4094
02:11:26,458 --> 02:11:28,583
I'm in that, like the editing portions,
4095
02:11:28,583 --> 02:11:30,208
the kind of like the fun little area
4096
02:11:30,208 --> 02:11:33,250
where I'm having fun playing around with.
4097
02:11:33,666 --> 02:11:35,291
And so that's probably another reason why
4098
02:11:35,291 --> 02:11:36,083
it's taking me so long.
4099
02:11:36,375 --> 02:11:37,833
Cause I like to play with it, but also
4100
02:11:37,833 --> 02:11:40,750
wanting to like make it better
4101
02:11:40,958 --> 02:11:42,125
than it probably needs to be.
4102
02:11:43,541 --> 02:11:45,125
For someone because it's like news stuff.
4103
02:11:45,125 --> 02:11:45,666
Like you just talked
4104
02:11:45,666 --> 02:11:46,791
about, like it's new stuff.
4105
02:11:47,083 --> 02:11:48,791
Like as long as there's good stuff on
4106
02:11:48,791 --> 02:11:50,708
screen for them to like understand it,
4107
02:11:50,833 --> 02:11:51,708
it's not as big a deal,
4108
02:11:51,708 --> 02:11:53,833
but long form content.
4109
02:11:53,833 --> 02:11:54,541
That's where it
4110
02:11:54,541 --> 02:11:55,500
starts to get much harder.
4111
02:11:56,375 --> 02:11:56,583
Yeah.
4112
02:11:58,916 --> 02:11:59,125
Yeah.
4113
02:12:00,708 --> 02:12:01,125
Oh, cool.
4114
02:12:01,416 --> 02:12:01,625
Cool.
4115
02:12:01,666 --> 02:12:03,916
Uh, do we want to wrap this thing up?
4116
02:12:04,666 --> 02:12:05,000
Yeah.
4117
02:12:05,000 --> 02:12:06,208
I want to go see how my video's doing.
4118
02:12:06,208 --> 02:12:07,500
I don't think it's I'm, I'm sure it's
4119
02:12:07,500 --> 02:12:10,708
doing okay because Half-Life 3's, uh,
4120
02:12:10,708 --> 02:12:11,791
the topics I covered
4121
02:12:11,791 --> 02:12:13,083
are like five days old.
4122
02:12:13,416 --> 02:12:14,958
It took me way too long to record and
4123
02:12:14,958 --> 02:12:16,375
edit, but speaking of
4124
02:12:16,375 --> 02:12:17,625
editing, but I really,
4125
02:12:17,875 --> 02:12:18,875
I want to go see what it's like.
4126
02:12:19,666 --> 02:12:22,750
So should we end?
4127
02:12:23,333 --> 02:12:23,625
Yeah.
4128
02:12:23,625 --> 02:12:24,083
I think we should.
4129
02:12:25,208 --> 02:12:25,666
All right.
4130
02:12:25,875 --> 02:12:26,708
Good show guys.
4131
02:12:28,000 --> 02:12:28,250
Yes.
4132
02:12:28,458 --> 02:12:30,208
Thank you for a great show.
4133
02:12:30,500 --> 02:12:32,000
I'm very happy with this.
4134
02:12:32,000 --> 02:12:33,208
I'm glad to be back again.
4135
02:12:33,625 --> 02:12:33,875
Yeah.
4136
02:12:34,458 --> 02:12:35,208
Welcome back, partner.
4137
02:12:35,750 --> 02:12:36,041
Yeah.
4138
02:12:36,041 --> 02:12:36,541
Well, glad you're back.
4139
02:12:36,833 --> 02:12:37,166
Yeah.
4140
02:12:37,166 --> 02:12:38,083
Glad you're feeling a lot better.
4141
02:12:38,791 --> 02:12:39,125
Yeah.
4142
02:12:39,916 --> 02:12:41,500
Bring the insight for us, man.
4143
02:12:41,500 --> 02:12:42,583
Hopefully you'll be able to go see.
4144
02:12:42,583 --> 02:12:43,000
Yes.
