“At 57, I'm not winding down—I'm spiraling in. This is not the finale. This is the reclamation.”In this Wisdom Walk edition of the Soulcruzer Podcast, I step into the mythic terrain of Act III—the Reclamation Phase. Blending Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey, James Hillman's mythic imagination, and the soul-deep symbolism of the Osho Zen Tarot, this episode explores the turning of the inner wheel and the soulful integration that defines the latter chapters of life. In this episode: What it means to live in Act III—not as decline, but as the return with the elixirHow soul integration and legacy begin with letting go of split identitiesEmbodied reflections on the three Osho Zen cards drawn for this walk:The Torn One (Schizophrenia) – the inner conflict of clinging to two worldsThe Dream Gazer (Postponement) – the cost of waiting to step into the full-color lifeThe Cosmic Dancer (Change) – surrendering to the rhythm of the turning wheelA real-time mythic meditation on life, death, purpose, and legacyThe personal reckoning of letting go of the "safe structure" in order to fully serve those who've awakened from the MatrixThis isn't just a podcast—it's a soul signal for those who've stirred from the dream of the ordinary and now find themselves blinking into the mythic light, wondering, What now?

Donald Macleod explores Danish composer, Carl Nielsen, through his temperaments Carl Nielsen (1865-1931) is probably the most eminent Danish composer. Known mainly for his talent as a symphonist and for his incidental music for 'Aladdin', he also pushed the boundaries of Romantic music, whether in his work on the voice or his exploration of dissonance. Born in the fairy tale-looking island of Fyn, his music is indeed full of characters: Nielsen was fascinated by the multiplicity of human emotions and personalities. To the extent that they frequently were the source of his musical creativity. After all, he was himself a passionate character, something that transpires in his very scores, in which the composer often hides behind the music. This week, inspired by his second and fourth symphonies, Donald Macleod invites you to discover Carl Nielsen's story through the prism of five different aspects of his temperament.Music Featured: Saul og David (Prelude to Act II) Symphony No 2, Op 16, FS29 ‘The Four Temperaments' Fynsk Forar, Op 42 (excerpt) Polka in A major, FS1 Little Suite for strings in A minor, Op 1 (3rd mvt) Aladdin Suite, Op 34 (excerpt) Søvnen, Op 18 String Quartet in D Minor, FS 3d (3rd mvt) Saga-Drøm, Op 39, FS 46 Concerto for Flute and Orchestra, FS 119 (1st mvt) The Heavens darken, vast and silent, FS 106 Dream about ‘Silent Night', FS 34 Farewell, my respectable native town!

We are firmly in Act III of the Gospel of Mark today as Jesus is anointed for burial by a woman at the home of Simon the Leper. This anointing points to Jesus' Kingship, Messiahship, and pending sacrifice. The woman's total commitment to Him is shown in this “no going back” breaking of this extremely expensive vessel in order to bring Jesus honor to the greatest extreme of which she is capable. There are moments in our lives when we receive the same nudge, including the daily call of Jesus to follow Him with total commitment. This woman's devotion is seen in stark contrast to Judas' betrayal, which ends this “sandwich” episode that begins and ends with men who have no clue (religious leaders, then Judas) with the “meat” of the sandwich being this heroic, insightful, Sprit-led, nameless woman who surpasses them all and thus is set in our memories by none other than Jesus Himself.To investigate this most important of stories further, go here.

This sermon will challenge and inspire you to prioritize God above all else and trust Him in every step of your journey.

Recorded December 20, 2024. Part 3 of the 6-part finale. Very laid back and chill episode. For the final three episodes, I will try to make them (slightly) more interesting by preparing notes of topics to cover ahead of time. For the final episode, I am considering making it 10 hours, recording over several different dates. Thanks for listening.

The panel discusses the play's self-awareness, its complexity of character, the presence of character flaws which serve to advance the action of the drama, and the contrast between reason and emotion, rhetoric and sophistry, and idealism and pragmatism.Continue reading

Send us a textToday, the 19th of November, Pluto (the slowest moving planet- who transforms) is moving into Aquarius for the 3rd time since March 2023.  But now, it will STAY in Aquarius (as oppose to going retrograde back into its previous sign) for TWENTY YEARS. I've done two episodes on Pluto in Aquarius before now. One on March 23rd 2023 and April of 2023.  They are listed on my Buzzsprout platform. You might want to listen to them if you haven't already. The Universe gave us two run-throughs (theater speak) -so you should be familiar with the energy! Glance back to May 20th 2023 for details in your own life- as Mars was also in the same placement it is right now- LEO....and during the May 2023 period we had the FIRST Mars in Leo oppose Pluto in Aquarius. It was a life changing time for me- personally; cemented in the mind. So now, we will travel on to embrace the next two decades of Pluto traveling through Aquarius... exciting times! Support the showAstrology:http://www.kitchensari.comJewelry:https://www.Etsy.com/shop/parkermcpDonations Via PayPal:https://paypal.me/parkermcphinney1?country.x=US&locale.x=en_USBuy me a chai/coffeehttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/parkercI am on RUMBLE.COM now- with short videos of: Astro/Art/Naturehttps://rumble.com/c/c-1989012 All content © 2020-2024 Stardust Stereo .

If you're planning your novel or have a finished draft and don't know where to begin with revisions, you need to hear this episode. This is a special two-part discussion with the brilliant book coach, developmental editor, and author Savannah Gilbo as she breaks down the main plot line—or the big picture—in J.K. Rowling's debut and phenomenon, HARRY POTTER AND THE SORCERER'S STONE (HPSS). In today's high-level discussion, Savannah and I chat about some foundational knowledge that can greatly benefit you when outlining, writing, and revising your book, such as understanding your content genre, the 5 Commandments of Story Telling (Story Grid), and how to identify the main scenes that govern your story. This pieces pulled from this episode come from an interview Savannah and I did with Story Grid for their YouTube channel, which you can watch here. To do this, Savannah and I first explore the 5 main scenes that make up the global story in HPSS. After, we zoom-in and dissect what we call the skeletal structure of HPSS; in other words, the 20 key scenes that make up the story's main plot line, split into the beginning, middle, and end (also known as Act I, Act II Part I, Act II Part II, and Act III). By the time you finish this episode, you'll have a better grasp on how to use plot and structure to test the strength of a story, all of which is modeled in a masterwork that changed history. The key points made in this discussion also pull from Savannah's recent book, THE WRITER'S STUDY GUIDE: HARRY POTTER AND THE SORCERER'S STONE, which you can purchase by clicking this link. What should you listen to next? Check out Savannah and my analysis of the first chapter in HPSS: First Chapters: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

(0:00:34) Al: My name is Al, and we’re here today to talk about Mario- wait no, Cottagecore Games. (0:00:36) Kev: And I’m Kevin. (0:00:42) Kev: I’ll talk about Mario. (0:00:44) Kev: I’m actually obligated to. (0:00:46) Al: I suspect I’ve already made that joke though, haven’t I? (0:00:49) Al: I probably made that joke a year ago. (0:00:51) Kev: Yeah, that’s fine. (0:00:52) Al: Um. (0:00:53) Kev: Oh yes, cottagecore. (0:00:55) Kev: But we’re here to talk about Cozy’s studio Ghibli likes. (0:00:59) Al: Yeah. (0:01:01) Al: Yes. (0:01:01) Al: So we are going to talk this episode about Mika and the Witches Mountain. (0:01:07) Al: This episode is the reason that Dave the Diver Month got delayed, basically. (0:01:07) Kev: finally (0:01:14) Al: We, we managed big news and full disclosure, because we have to say this. (0:01:14) Kev: Yeah (0:01:20) Al: Uh, we got a free code for Mika and the Witches Mountain for review. (0:01:25) Al: Uh, so, um, thank you to Chibi Games for that. (0:01:28) Kev: both of us oh oh okay sorry well ah that’s how you got it okay like (0:01:29) Al: No, just you. (0:01:31) Al: I paid for mine, but you, you got yours free, I paid for mine. (0:01:35) Al: Uh, I mean, to be fair, I paid for it like three years ago in Kickstarter. (0:01:42) Al: Um, so because of that, we then had like a specific time that they (0:01:48) Al: wanted the review to be done by. (0:01:50) Al: So we are doing the episode now, which means that hopefully next episode will (0:01:55) Al: be the final episode of Dave the Diver Month, or maybe not because of new (0:02:01) Al: I’m not going to talk about the Dave the Diver news in this episode, (0:02:02) Kev: I was about to say or maybe not. (0:02:04) Al: because there is Dave the Diver news. (0:02:06) Al: We’re going to talk about that in the next episode, just cause it’s so close. (0:02:09) Al: Um, so there we go. (0:02:12) Al: So yes, uh, we’re going to talk about Mika and the Witches Mountain. (0:02:12) Kev: And we can finally say #sponsored. (0:02:15) Al: Um, the hashtag sponsored hashtag, hashtag ad. (0:02:22) Al: Uh, I think it’s actually hashtag gifted. (0:02:25) Al: It’s not an ad. (0:02:25) Al: It’s not sponsored as gifted as a difference there. (0:02:28) Al: Cause we’re, we’re obviously. (0:02:30) Al: Getting the review code would not change our review. (0:02:33) Al: We would be reviewing it in the same way, whether we were paying for it or not. (0:02:36) Al: Uh, yeah. (0:02:36) Kev: Yup, that’s why Nintendo won’t sponsor Alex. (0:02:43) Al: Yes. (0:02:44) Al: And, um, unlike the developers of that new game that I can’t remember the name of, (0:02:49) Al: uh, we will talk about the politics of China. (0:02:52) Al: Uh, yeah, I think that’s something like that. (0:02:53) Kev: Oh my gosh, Black- Is it Black Wukong? (0:02:58) Al: I can’t remember what the name is, but yeah, it’s something like that. (0:03:01) Al: Very, very awkward. (0:03:03) Al: All that news of them trying to stop people talking about things that people (0:03:07) Al: are obviously going to talk about. (0:03:08) Kev: Yeah, oh good. (0:03:08) Al: Uh, but as far as I know, there’s no, uh, there’s no kind of big political issues (0:03:16) Al: with chibi games, uh, so we’re going to just talk about the game, um, because (0:03:20) Al: there’s no controversies that I know of to talk about before that. (0:03:23) Al: We have some news and first of all, Kevin, what have you been up to? (0:03:26) Kev: Well, a lot of meat primarily, but on the off chance I do get a breather, I look in (0:03:36) Kev: meek at time of course, I played hey guess what, a Mario game, Chalker, particularly (0:03:45) Kev: where was it, Mario World 2 Yoshi’s Island, I forget the swirlder land, but Yoshi’s Island, (0:03:50) Kev: the first Yoshi’s Island for the SNES, yep it’s the one with the bait. (0:03:52) Al: Is that the one with the babies? (0:03:56) Kev: The SNES always surprises me, like how modern it looks compared to the NES or whatever, (0:04:07) Kev: but anyways, I mean it’s a Yoshi game, it’s good, have you played any Yoshi games now? (0:04:12) Al: I have played this one specifically because when I was playing through the Mario games, (0:04:20) Al: the way that I defined it was anything that says “Super Mario” and is a platformer. So (0:04:26) Kev: Okay, sure. (0:04:26) Al: this one being called “Super Mario World 2, Yoshi’s Island” meant that I played this one. (0:04:31) Al: But I also included then the first Wario World as well, because that was a Super Mario World (0:04:37) Al: 2. Was it 4 or 3? I can’t remember. It was one of them anyway. So yeah. (0:04:38) Kev: That was three, wasn’t it, I think. (0:04:40) Kev: Yeah. (0:04:42) Al: Back when they would make a random platformer for another character and just slap Mario’s (0:04:48) Al: name on it. Yeah, yeah. Well, why not? I don’t think I’ve played any of the other ones. I’ve (0:04:50) Kev: It was a good strategy. They go, “I should go back.” (0:04:53) Kev: Um, yeah. (0:04:56) Kev: Mm. (0:04:57) Al: been meaning to play Willy World for a while just because it looks fun. But I don’t think (0:05:00) Kev: Yeah. (0:05:02) Al: I need to have a look at the list of (0:05:04) Kev: Yeah, well, shocker. (0:05:05) Kev: The core of the game, of a Nintendo game, has stayed pretty intact all these years. (0:05:11) Kev: Um, it’s a fun one. I like it. (0:05:14) Kev: Yoshi’s Island, um, (0:05:16) Kev: introduces all the Yoshi mechanics that are just (0:05:20) Kev: Mario stuff right not just the the eggs but the the flutter jump all sorts (0:05:24) Al: Yeah, but I guess the interesting thing about this one was that it was you were (0:05:24) Kev: of the Yoshi cop they’re all sorts of fun things if you want here (0:05:30) Al: controlling Yoshi rather than controlling Mario on you. (0:05:32) Kev: yeah that’s true yeah it’s true no longer your loyal steed slash jump (0:05:37) Kev: assist when you throw him in the pit didn’t make that jump but yeah if you (0:05:45) Kev: want to hear extended thoughts on Mr. Yoshi’s first (0:05:50) Kev: spotlight feature, well that’s not true, he had that Yoshi puzzle game, whatever, (0:05:56) Kev: go listen to Rainbow Road Radio, the show I do with Alex, that’ll be the next (0:06:01) Kev: episode, he’ll be out by the time this is out, so yeah, go check that out. Other than (0:06:07) Kev: that, I’m pretty sure I talked about Battle Cats a long long time ago on this (0:06:12) Kev: podcast, it’s a mobile game, it’s tower defense, you control these goofy cats (0:06:17) Kev: that’s sending your or me (0:06:20) Kev: to get units to go fight the enemy CPU units or whatever (0:06:25) Kev: I go on and off it (0:06:27) Kev: one thing about it, they do collabs with all sorts of different properties (0:06:32) Kev: the most wild ones like they’ve done Evangelion, Street Fighter (0:06:36) Kev: and they happen to do one with Ruruni Kenshin (0:06:39) Kev: which brought me back in hard (0:06:42) Kev: do you know Ruruni Kenshin now? (0:06:44) Al: - I do not, I was just about to ask, what is that? (0:06:45) Kev: Oh, okay, um, it’s a manga/anime, uh, unfortunately. (0:06:50) Kev: Of course, the very problematic creators I will acknowledge. Uh, by problematic, I mean awful. I won’t… yeah, not a great person, but the manga/… yup. Yup, not good things. Yeah, okay, criminal. Okay, let’s… okay, a criminal. A criminal creator. Let’s bump it up a little. (0:06:55) Al: I’m going to Wikipedia and looking at, oh right, okay, yep. (0:07:07) Al: That’s not just problematic, we’re not going to talk about that. (0:07:20) Kev: - But, which is unfortunate, ‘cause the manga slash anime (0:07:22) Kev: was very popular, was from like the ’90s, I believe, (0:07:26) Kev: and very well-liked and whatnot. (0:07:30) Kev: I watched it when I was younger, actually, in Mexico, (0:07:33) Kev: because Mexico had a lot of anime going on back then. (0:07:36) Kev: It still does. (0:07:38) Kev: It’s a, you know, it’s a whole thing. (0:07:40) Kev: It’s about samurais, basically. (0:07:41) Kev: I’m just really cool and really enjoyable. (0:07:44) Kev: And so, yeah, hearing that Colab got my attention, (0:07:48) Kev: so I got into it back in about, (0:07:50) Kev: and that was fun to see. (0:07:52) Kev: And then, Zona Zen Zero, the whole reverse game, (0:07:56) Kev: I continue to play it. (0:07:57) Kev: I’m actually kind of getting finally invested (0:08:00) Kev: into the story a little bit after like a month, (0:08:04) Kev: some time to get through all the gobbledygook (0:08:08) Kev: and nonsense words they use to finally understand (0:08:11) Kev: what’s going on. (0:08:13) Kev: One thing interesting about it is because it’s, you know, (0:08:16) Kev: ongoing engine-type game. (0:08:18) Kev: Like I– (0:08:20) Kev: Kind of hit. I think the end of the available story, right? (0:08:22) Kev: They do chapter drops or whatever and so now I have to wait for the next one. (0:08:27) Kev: Which is just an interesting experience. I don’t think I’ve ever had to really deal with it, at least in a video game, right? (0:08:33) Kev: But yeah, that’s what I’ve been up to. What about you, Al? What’s going on with you? (0:08:38) Al: Well, I have obviously been playing Mika as well, and we’ll talk about that. (0:08:44) Al: I have also, we are recording on the 23rd of August, which is the day the Harvest Moon Home (0:08:50) Al: Sweet Home comes out. So, or came out, or has come out. It’s out. So, I have bought it, and I have (0:08:52) Kev: against all odds with no no work no not a whisper of anything about it but it (0:09:09) Al: a little bit. Obviously not very much, because it’s the first day, and I’ve been working today. (0:09:15) Al: Well, I will obviously have a lot more thoughts about this in the future, but my first (0:09:24) Al: thought is this game has basically no controller support, but it’s not completely not, right? It (0:09:32) Al: has, I’ve found one thing that has controller support for, and that’s conversations. When you’re (0:09:38) Al: you can proceed the conversation with the controller. Nothing else. And it’s so weird. So weird. (0:09:42) Kev: That’s so weird. You have to play on your phone, but when you hit the conversation pick up your controller (0:09:49) Al: It’s so weird. Well, that’s the thing. Because I have an Android phone, and I have an iPad, (0:09:56) Al: I have to decide on which platform I’m going to purchase on, right? Because I’m not going to (0:10:00) Al: purchase on both. Although I will say, interestingly, it’s not that expensive. It’s 18 (0:10:05) Al: £14 on IOS and it’s £14. (0:10:08) Kev: Oh, I’m a darned. (0:10:08) Al: It’s weird that there’s the difference there, but it’s not an insane, you know, it’s not (0:10:14) Al: it’s not a ridiculous amount. (0:10:16) Al: It was pretty good for what it is, but I’m probably still not going to buy it on both. (0:10:23) Al: So I had to decide and I was like, I can’t, I think I decided originally to buy on Android. (0:10:28) Al: So I bought it and downloaded it and opened it and it crashed. (0:10:33) Al: And apparently they’ve had an issue on Android where the game is crashing just now. (0:10:33) Kev: Oh (0:10:36) Kev: Say yes, I have to buy both (0:10:37) Al: And so I was like… (0:10:39) Al: I went on to the Play Store and there was a refund button. (0:10:42) Al: So I was like, “Oh, well, I’ll refund that and I’ll go buy it on iPad then.” (0:10:46) Al: So I’ve been playing it on the iPad. (0:10:48) Al: But the problem with that is obviously I would like to use my controller (0:10:50) Al: because it’s on my iPad, right? (0:10:52) Al: Like I don’t want to be like holding my 13-inch iPads, (0:10:56) Al: trying to play touchscreen controls. (0:11:00) Kev: Back to the Wii U days, baby. (0:11:02) Al: It’s worse than that. (0:11:02) Al: It’s so much bigger than that. (0:11:06) Al: I do have an iPad mini. (0:11:08) Al: So I will try it out on that and see how it feels on that as well. (0:11:11) Al: But this this might not be a good start to it. (0:11:14) Al: Although I will have to see. (0:11:16) Al: I need to check this. (0:11:17) Al: I meant to check this earlier (0:11:20) Al: because Mac OS has a thing now where you can install iPad apps. (0:11:23) Al: So I need to see if I can install that and maybe I can play it on my Mac. (0:11:25) Kev: Ooh. That’d be nice. (0:11:26) Al: We’ll see. (0:11:27) Kev: Is there no blue stacks equivalent on Mac? (0:11:30) Al: What that is, that is that. (0:11:32) Kev: Oh, that is. Okay. Okay. (0:11:34) Al: Yeah, it’s the same thing. (0:11:35) Al: and technically developers can deceive. (0:11:39) Al: So, we’ll see whether they’ve disabled it or not. (0:11:39) Kev: Mmm, let’s see. (0:11:42) Al: I would hope not, but we’ll see. (0:11:42) Kev: Okay. (0:11:44) Kev: Um, okay, about the game, okay, the big question about the game itself, (0:11:49) Kev: is it, you know, a farming game? (0:11:51) Kev: Don’t even know what it’s supposed to be. (0:11:52) Al: Yeah, I would say it’s basically, it’s a Harvest Moon game. Now the question is whether it is a (0:11:56) Kev: Okay, it is a harvest move. (0:11:59) Al: Harvest Moon game, and they’ve definitely thought about it in terms of touch screen first. I would (0:12:04) Al: say touch screen first, or touch screen only, clearly, because they don’t have the controller (0:12:07) Kev: Okay. (0:12:08) Al: support. Which is, I mean, the fact that they’ve thought about it touch screen first is good, (0:12:09) Kev: Yay. (0:12:14) Al: the fact that it doesn’t support controllers is bad. But yeah, it’ll be interesting to see (0:12:16) Kev: Yeah. (0:12:20) Kev: Okay. (0:12:20) Al: how things go. I’ve not put enough into it to- (0:12:23) Al: You know, an opinion on the story or the full mechanics or anything like that. That episode will come. (0:12:24) Kev: Sure. (0:12:27) Kev: Sure. (0:12:30) Al: But yeah, so start off disappointing. We’ll see. We’ll see where it goes from here. (0:12:36) Kev: - Nah. (0:12:41) Al: I think I also- I launched- I bought and started playing (0:12:46) Al: Natsumon? Is that real? Yeah, Natsumon, 20th century summer kid. I haven’t played a lot of that, though. (0:12:52) Al: That’s probably for the future, because there’s a lot happening just now. (0:12:57) Al: That was one of the games that Micah talked about, I think, last year. End of the year. (0:13:00) Kev: Ahh, okay. Oh, I love that art style. (0:13:04) Al: And they only added the English translation at the beginning of this month, so. (0:13:09) Kev: - Okay, cool, cool, cool. (0:13:11) Al: So yeah, that’s what we’ve been playing. So, into the news. Speaking of mobile games, (0:13:17) Kev: Eh? (0:13:17) Al: we have some Animal Crossing news. It’s been a while since we’ve had some Animal Crossing news, Kevin. (0:13:22) Al: And now it’s time to talk about a game, (0:13:23) Kev: It’s good for once. (0:13:25) Al: now it’s time to talk about an Animal Crossing game that neither of us have really played. (0:13:30) Al: I think I have downloaded it and I’ve opened it and got really bored really quickly. (0:13:35) Al: But that is Animal Crossing Pocket Camp. (0:13:38) Al: So the news is that the game is shutting down. (0:13:42) Al: But don’t worry, they’re releasing it again offline. (0:13:47) Al: So this is very interesting and I wanna know what you think. (0:13:50) Al: But my opinion is that this is. (0:13:52) Al: Because I think exactly what we want online games to do is when they shut down, they (0:13:59) Al: release another version that allows you to play the whole game without in-app purchases. (0:14:05) Al: And granted, it’s going to cost money. (0:14:07) Al: And I accept that because it takes work and that’s life. (0:14:13) Al: But it’ll be interesting to see how much it costs. (0:14:15) Al: That will be the killer, I think. (0:14:18) Al: I think overall, although some people we disappointed because they obviously… (0:14:22) Al: It means there’s no new events in the game. I think that overall it’s a good news because it’s not going… (0:14:28) Kev: All right, I heard, I cannot source or confirm, I heard that they will try to do some events (0:14:34) Kev: still for the first, like, while for the offline version, but… (0:14:38) Al: No, I haven’t seen anything about that. What they have said is that they’ll be doing events (0:14:44) Al: and adding some items until the end of the current version, which ends, which is running (0:14:48) Kev: Oh, okay, that’s why it would have hurt, nevermind. (0:14:51) Kev: Um, but still. (0:14:54) Al: until the 28th of November. That is when they’re going to shut it down. So they said there (0:14:59) Al: will be some more events and items before then, but I haven’t seen anything about new (0:15:04) Al: stuff in the in the. (0:15:07) Kev: if uh if i’m employed by that point I will pick this up because i’m much more interested now that (0:15:14) Kev: I can just play it all especially offline um because that’s uh that’s my idea (0:15:21) Al: It’s going to be very interesting to me how much it costs. Will it cost like what Mario (0:15:27) Al: Run cost? Was that like 20 dollars? Something like that? Or whether it ends up going like (0:15:32) Kev: I was about to say, it’s in the new nintendo to pick the latest entry into the animal crossing (0:15:36) Al: a full price switch game. I would be surprised if it did. But you never know, it is Nintendo. (0:15:47) Kev: series, full price animal crossing, locket camp deluxe. (0:15:51) Al: - It turns out the Switch 2 runs Android. (0:15:58) Al: Look, we’ve got a new Animal Crossing game for the new console. (0:16:02) Al: Yeah, the other thing is, they haven’t said for certain that it’s definitely 100% offline. (0:16:09) Al: Let me see if I can find the wording. (0:16:11) Al: It says, “We’re developing a version of Animal Crossing Pocket Camp that users (0:16:15) Al: can continue to play with their save file.” (0:16:17) Al: So that’s a key point your data will carry across. (0:16:20) Kev: Oh, yeah that yeah, can you imagine if it did? (0:16:21) Al: You would think that would be a minimum required thing for this, but just it’s good to have the clarification. (0:16:29) Kev: You know in this day and age yeah, yeah, it’s good to have that clarification (0:16:33) Al: You carry over your saved data by linking your Nintendo account. (0:16:37) Al: It says, but you cannot carry over any remaining leaf tickets. (0:16:40) Al: I think they were the like paid item that unlocked things in the game. (0:16:42) Kev: score. Right. (0:16:44) Al: So obviously it doesn’t make any sense if there aren’t, because it says it’s a paid app without in-app purchases. (0:16:52) Al: The question of course is whether that means everything in the game, all the items will be unlocked for everybody. (0:16:59) Al: And if so, do you have to do something to unlock them? (0:17:03) Al: Like are there going to be challenges or is it just you can access everything like you had paid for it? (0:17:10) Kev: if I were making the decision / this is my guess I’d say you there’s a new fake (0:17:19) Kev: premium currency new leaf tickets what I would call it and you have to do (0:17:24) Kev: challenges to earn that and that’s what so that way they can just leave like (0:17:26) Al: That’s a possible. I wouldn’t be surprised if that wasn’t the case purely because that (0:17:33) Al: sounds like work and is probably more less work just to have like I can’t I don’t I (0:17:40) Al: don’t think I played long enough to know how these things unlock but I’m presuming it’s (0:17:45) Al: just a shop somewhere and so instead that shop just has a cost of zero for everything (0:17:50) Kev: - Oh, okay. (0:17:52) Kev: Or can they change it to, I don’t know about this games, (0:17:54) Kev: non-premium currency, I don’t know. (0:17:56) Al: Yeah, we’ll find out. The other thing is it says it does not require constant data communication, (0:18:02) Al: but that word constant would imply that maybe there is some internet connectivity to it, (0:18:08) Al: but why would they do that if they’re shutting down the game? So I’m a little bit intrigued (0:18:11) Al: as to what that means and what exactly it’s going to look like. They have said they’re (0:18:16) Al: going to have more details about the new app in October, so I guess we’ll find out. (0:18:21) Kev: - All right, but like I said, I’m looking forward. (0:18:23) Al: Yeah, I will. I will almost certainly purchase. (0:18:26) Al: This will I regret purchasing it? We’ll find out. Stay tuned. (0:18:35) Al: Next, we have a renamed game. What was previously called a last song is now called MeloBot, (0:18:43) Al: a last song. MeloBot, MeloBot is a good name. I’m not a huge fan of like subtitles in games, (0:18:44) Kev: I love Metabots! (0:18:46) Kev: Classic. (0:18:52) Al: but I get why they’re doing this one, right? Because it makes it very clear that it’s a (0:18:58) Kev: yeah yeah i’m actually a fan of subtitles and the reason like because if they want to make you (0:19:08) Kev: know franchise or whatever sequels like having different subtitles I think is better than the (0:19:14) Kev: the numbering thing (0:19:16) Al: I mean, I personally I prefer just numbering because then it makes it very clear the order. (0:19:22) Al: But that aside, I think part of the reason I don’t like subtitles is because it implies (0:19:28) Al: that they are going to make a franchise and it’s like, don’t assume that you’re going (0:19:31) Al: to be successful enough to do a franchise. And often subtitles are really, you know, (0:19:40) Al: stupid and not like, so let’s talk about the art games, for example, right? (0:19:44) Kev: Yeah, yeah the pinnacle of subtitles (0:19:47) Al: A perfect example of bad subtitles. They have their first game was Ark Survival Evolved, (0:19:53) Al: right? Which, OK, sure, fine, you’re making it clear it’s a survival game. That’s fine. (0:19:59) Al: Evolved, maybe that’s talking about the dinosaurs. Who knows? What I find confusing about it, (0:20:07) Al: though, is that when you get to a second game, you then start to go, well, is Evolved the first (0:20:12) Al: or the second game? Because Evolved would imply to me that it’s like an evolution of the previous (0:20:16) Al: game. And then their particular problem is they have a remaster of the original called (0:20:23) Al: Ark Survival Ascendant, which is very not clear what, like, why? Why those two names? (0:20:31) Al: And how you meant to know which is which based on those names? That’s my main problem. And then, (0:20:35) Al: of course, their new game is just called Ark 2. So they just can’t decide what they want to do. (0:20:40) Kev: Beautiful. (0:20:41) Kev: I like that. (0:20:42) Al: But anyway, as subtitles go, this is not a bad subtitle. (0:20:43) Kev: Mm-hmm. (0:20:48) Al: I guess just a reminder to people, this is the game where you play as a robot on an alien planet and you are healing plants with salt. (0:20:58) Kev: Yeah, there is in fact rhythm gameplay in this game. (0:21:04) Kev: I was looking at the trailer. (0:21:06) Kev: That looks nice. (0:21:08) Al: Yeah, so it’s a little world that you walk around in and you find plants and then you (0:21:12) Al: have to use your rhythm to heal them, which is a fun little idea. And, you know, I like (0:21:16) Kev: - Mm-hmm, yeah. (0:21:19) Al: the idea of kind of combining a, I don’t know if it’s open world or what, but like, you (0:21:23) Al: know, a world traversal, also with rhythm. (0:21:28) Kev: And somehow there’s still combat. I don’t know if that’s rhythm based, but there is you (0:21:32) Al: I think it is. I think it is rhythm-based as well, based on the trailer. We’ll see. (0:21:37) Kev: Which is a cool idea, um, it looks nice i’m down for this september 12th. That’s not far off (0:21:42) Al: Yeah, so that’s the other news. It’s coming out on the 12th of September, and they’ve (0:21:44) Kev: plus a month (0:21:54) Al: or three weeks three weeks is that three weeks to go till it comes out next we have the full patch (0:22:00) Al: notes for the new disney dreamlight valley update dapper delights so if you want them they are now (0:22:06) Al: available and (0:22:06) Kev: Did they add hot hot ones to the game the reverse of the collab? (0:22:12) Al: Uhhh… no. I feel like I’m missing a reference. (0:22:16) Kev: No (0:22:18) Kev: Okay, you know what hot ones is right (0:22:19) Al: The, like, wings challenge. Yeah. Yeah. (0:22:22) Kev: Yes, yes, okay. Yes the talk show where people eat spicy food in the meanwhile or whatever, right? (0:22:28) Kev: They’re they’re doing with Donald Doug and animated Donald duck (0:22:30) Al: Um… why? (0:22:35) Kev: It was I think (0:22:36) Kev: 90th anniversary, I guess (0:22:43) Al: Oh no, that sounds (0:22:49) Kev: I mean the animations good. I will say that they’re not limping on it. But um, I (0:22:56) Kev: Gotta love how the host is just gonna be talking (0:23:00) Kev: itself I guess or standing Donald (0:23:03) Al: I really don’t know what to say. I’ve never watched a full episode of Hot Ones, (0:23:03) Kev: Good you got a little bit (0:23:06) Kev: I (0:23:11) Al: I’ve just seen clips on TikTok. Sorry, what now? No. As in, like, the animated character or as in… (0:23:12) Kev: Haven’t either but um, yeah, I’m excited for it. Will this be as good as doofenschwertz on shark tank? I don’t know. Oh (0:23:22) Kev: You didn’t know that dr. Doofenschwertz from a Phineas and Ferb was on shark tank (0:23:30) Kev: That is correct, yes (0:23:31) Al: But… (0:23:33) Al: I don’t know what to say. So no, The Hot Ones is not suddenly in Dreamlight Valley. (0:23:35) Kev: I’ll see you tomorrow. (0:23:36) Kev: Bye! (0:23:46) Al: But no, this update adds Tiana from Princess and the Frog, and she brings a restaurant with her. (0:23:51) Kev: Oh, okay. (0:23:55) Kev: Uh-oh, Rami’s facing competition now. She’s got to pick a side. (0:23:56) Al: I don’t think I’ve seen the Princess and the Frog. Is that a thing she’s known for? (0:24:00) Al: I’ve not seen the Princess and the Frog. (0:24:02) Kev: Oh, that’s her entire thing. Like, (0:24:05) Kev: her ho- she’s- works in a restaurant, wants to save up to own- open her own restaurant. That’s her dream. (0:24:10) Al: Fair enough? Well, yeah, so the full details on the update are right now. And I did notice (0:24:19) Al: that we do have confirmation now that the Act III of the DLC, which comes out with the update, is (0:24:26) Al: the final in the Rift of Time expansion, which I think confirms that the next thing that they’re (0:24:34) Al: hinting at, the next expansion they’re hinting at is our new expansion, because I looked on Steam, (0:24:38) Al: and when you’re purchasing the (0:24:40) Kev: Mm-hmm (0:24:40) Al: expansion, you are very explicitly purchasing Disney Dreamlight Valley Arift in Time. So (0:24:45) Al: I think that’s Arift in Time is complete and the next thing that they’re hinting that comes (0:24:49) Al: later this year will be another paid. (0:24:52) Kev: Sure, and other things, yeah. I wonder what it’ll be. (0:24:56) Al: Yeah, I don’t think that I don’t think we’ve got any real hints on on that yet. (0:25:00) Al: So we’ll we’ll see. (0:25:02) Al: We’ll see what comes. (0:25:06) Al: Next, we have a new update for Steam World Build. (0:25:10) Al: The Skull Valley update is out now. (0:25:13) Al: So this adds a whole new map (0:25:15) Al: filled with piratey perils and opportunities. (0:25:18) Al: Build your town town. (0:25:21) Al: Build your town amidst palm trees, (0:25:23) Al: canons and the looming shadow of the Kraken. (0:25:25) Al: So there you go. (0:25:26) Kev: Okay, I have not played this one. I’m out of the loop here. (0:25:26) Al: And so this is the, it’s a town builder, a SteamWorld town builder. (0:25:30) Kev: Kraken’s are cool. (0:25:34) Kev: Yeah, I remember that. (0:25:36) Al: So this is just a new map for the town builder with some new stuff in it, which is cool. (0:25:41) Kev: The brand-new map is pretty cool (0:25:45) Kev: Yeah (0:25:46) Kev: Rockin school. Oh, oh there. I’m seeing the picture. It’s it’s cracking like in the desert. Okay. You could do is expecting that (0:25:54) Al: Yeah, I don’t know whether anything will come with that or not, because it does say looming (0:25:59) Al: shadow of the Kraken implies that something might come from that. But it does look very much dried up. (0:26:05) Kev: yeah that that’s actually a fun aesthetic dried up pirate island um and I like that that’s cool (0:26:10) Al: Yeah. (0:26:13) Al: So if you’ve been playing SteamWorld Build, go get the update now. If you haven’t been playing it, (0:26:17) Al: and you’re like, you know what I really want, what will make me buy this game? (0:26:21) Al: Pirates. Well, there you go. Now you can go. (0:26:24) Kev: You know what would make me buy a game, Al? (0:26:25) Al: Nothing you say is gonna be true right now. (0:26:29) Kev: Spinach. (0:26:30) Kev: What if they’re gonna have spinach? (0:26:33) Al: Oh, my word. (0:26:33) Kev: You’re– ooh. (0:26:36) Al: Farming Simulator 25, in our continual coverage (0:26:39) Al: of this game for some reason, we’ve (0:26:43) Al: got some more information on the game, more reveals. (0:26:45) Al: There is a new map and there’s spinach. (0:26:50) Al: So I don’t hate spinach, but it’s (0:26:50) Kev: Do you like spinach, Al? (0:26:55) Al: something I would particularly choose. (0:26:58) Kev: So, I like- (0:26:58) Al: But if I was having a meal that had spinach, (0:26:59) Al: I’d be like, yeah, that’s fine. (0:27:01) Kev: Yeah. (0:27:02) Kev: I like, you know, baby spinach, the green leafy stuff. (0:27:05) Al: Yeah. (0:27:06) Kev: But, when you, like, book it too much and it turns that Popeye mushy stuff, uh, no, I can’t- (0:27:11) Al: Yeah, that’s part of the problem. (0:27:13) Al: You basically can’t cook it. (0:27:15) Al: You just need to mix it into your hot food (0:27:17) Kev: Yup. (0:27:18) Al: and otherwise it’s overcooked. (0:27:19) Kev: There’s… (0:27:20) Kev: …too much dang water in there. (0:27:22) Kev: Um… (0:27:24) Kev: Well, there you go. (0:27:26) Kev: Spinach fans rejoice. It’s incredible. (0:27:29) Al: Oh, you’re gonna love this. So I’ve just been looking through the other previews they’ve (0:27:34) Al: given us. So they are releasing with this game an ignition lock, a physical ignition (0:27:44) Al: that you can buy, and insert the key to turn on your tractor. (0:27:48) Kev: now we’re talking I like that forget controller support where’s my physical (0:27:50) Al: Oh dear. But that’s basically what it is. There you go, there’s a link you can (0:27:56) Kev: key and lock support oh that’s that’s uh (0:27:59) Al: look at, Kevin, this is quite something. So this comes with the collector’s edition (0:28:08) Al: of Farming Simulator 25. (0:28:10) Kev: oh my gosh this is great I love that this is genius always on the cutting edge um little farming (0:28:17) Al: I was on something, though I will say the collector’s edition in the UK is 60 pounds. (0:28:26) Al: So that’s not bad for coming with, you know, the physical ignition key, if that’s what (0:28:33) Al: you want. (0:28:35) Al: It comes with two keys as well, in case you lose one. (0:28:38) Al: There you go. (0:28:38) Kev: I definitely would so I appreciate that they’re thinking. (0:28:42) Al: I feel like my key would just sit in the ignition the whole time. (0:28:45) Al: I mean, it’s not like (0:28:47) Al: someone’s actually going to steal it. Since we wanted to ensure a quality product that’s not (0:28:53) Al: just functional, but also robust and reliable, our specialists sat down, designed and engineered (0:28:59) Al: it directly in-house. It is something, that’s for sure. And the last piece of update news (0:29:01) Kev: You look at that, look at that is expertise and it’s fine. (0:29:13) Al: for games is that Smishy Come Home, I’ve got a limited physical release. (0:29:17) Al: Which includes trading cards. (0:29:20) Kev: that’s interesting five there’s uh three of five there’s only five of them um it’s like one of (0:29:29) Kev: each biome um and then a nice one with art um five that’s okay I guess you know what all I care (0:29:38) Kev: is that that box art is beautiful I might not I won’t be getting right now under my circumstances (0:29:45) Kev: but that is beautiful and smooshie is a lovely um home (0:29:51) Kev: you know what I posey is a foul word but it that is actually cozy and enjoyable and lovely game (0:29:57) Kev: I highly recommend it to pretty much anyone it’s if you want a nice game to actually (0:30:04) Al: My issue is not with the word cosy, it’s with developers or publishers using the name, using the word. (0:30:12) Kev: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, yep, you know what, yeah, fair enough, yeah, so yeah, if you want (0:30:13) Al: I think it’s fine for people to describe a game they like as cosy, I don’t think it’s okay for developers to say “this is a cosy game” (0:30:25) Kev: a hug in a video game form, go play smooshy, smooshy, smooshy, smooshy. (0:30:30) Al: So we also have two new games that have been announced. One is called Herdling (0:30:36) Al: and this is the new game being published by Panic who do a bunch of stuff. They (0:30:46) Al: did Untitled Goose Game and Firewatch and they make the the Playdate, the little (0:30:53) Al: controller. They had a little games console with the Crank… yeah. (0:30:56) Kev: Wait all those guys did that it’s a wild array of things (0:31:00) Al: Yeah, it is. They are a wild array of people. Anyway, this game is being (0:31:06) Kev: Yep, I you know hats off to them they are not cowards, but they will go with the good teeth (0:31:13) Al: published by them. They’re not developing it, but obviously they’re not like a (0:31:18) Al: massive publisher, so they must see something in this game which immediately (0:31:22) Al: makes me interested. The blurb for this game is “Guide a Herd of mysterious (0:31:28) Al: creatures on a stirring and beautiful day. (0:31:30) Al: journey into the mountains and beyond, um, yeah, I mean, that’s exactly what it is, (0:31:37) Al: right? (0:31:38) Kev: Yep, I’m watching the trailer, and you are hurting. (0:31:38) Al: Like if you watch the video, you are guiding a herd of majestical creatures, I don’t… (0:31:44) Kev: They kind of look like full cow things, buffalo things. They’re hairies like yaks. (0:31:48) Al: Yeah, different sizes, different sizes and colours and stuff like that. (0:31:50) Kev: Um, it’s a pretty game. Yep. Some of them glow a little, twisty horns. (0:31:57) Al: Yeah. (0:31:58) Kev: It’s a very pretty game, very pretty world. (0:32:00) Al: And it looks like there’s some… puzzles? You do. (0:32:04) Kev: Take ’em on a boat, push things with your… (0:32:08) Kev: It’s a cool thing. (laughs) (0:32:10) Al: Yeah, do they have a name for these creatures? I’m not seeing any- Oh, here we go. (0:32:14) Al: Calicorns. (0:32:16) Kev: Okay, I’m down for. (0:32:21) Al: Yeah, no, this looks cool. They’ve not announced when it’s coming out. (0:32:25) Al: it’s on Steam, but they haven’t said what platforms it’s on. (0:32:33) Kev: It says, “An emotional wordless tale.” (0:32:35) Kev: Oh no, this game’s gonna hit me bad. (0:32:38) Al: They have said it’s coming to console, but they haven’t said what consoles, so. (0:32:38) Kev: It’s gonna do something to hurt me bad. (0:32:40) Kev: I can already see it. (0:32:47) Kev: Tell me to the play date. (0:32:48) Al: More information as it comes. (0:32:49) Al: I highly doubt it will come to the plate. (0:32:53) Kev: It’s exclusive. (0:32:55) Al: It’s a cool little console, but I don’t think it could cope with that game. (0:32:59) Al: And finally, we have Floetopia. (0:33:01) Al: Have you watched this trailer yet, Kevin? (0:33:02) Kev: Oh, no, let me see. Are you ready for my… (0:33:03) Al: Right. (0:33:04) Al: Okay. (0:33:05) Al: that you need to watch this trailer. (0:33:08) Al: Pause the episode, go watch this trailer, it’ll be in the show notes. (0:33:10) Al: Go, honestly, go watch the trailer before we talk about it. (0:33:15) Kev: okay listen with my library action let’s see first reaction there’s an ad so (0:33:22) Kev: give me a second one second almost there okay here we go oh the words ending (0:33:30) Kev: that’s nice (0:33:31) Al: Yeah, not ideal no ideal (0:33:33) Kev: with cute little should be people (0:33:37) Al: Yep, they’re running around trying not to die (0:33:38) Kev: there’s there’s somebody very nonchalant about it (0:33:42) Al: The end means I don’t need to go to work I mean fair (0:33:46) Kev: there I admire the hustle they’re saying the world’s ending so come live to the (0:33:53) Kev: cloud photopia people islands you definitely is yep you go from actual (0:33:56) Al: So, I mean, that’s quite a dramatic shift in tone there, right? (0:34:05) Kev: apocalypse with giant tornado in the background to happy joy music in the (0:34:10) Kev: clouds we’re just gonna ignore all the people who didn’t make it (0:34:14) Al: I think that’s a costume. (0:34:16) Kev: why are all these people animals well not all of them but (0:34:22) Al: I don’t think they’re actually animals. (0:34:23) Kev: they well I know dog person was digging like a dog I don’t know man somebody (0:34:30) Al: I wouldn’t be surprised if the costumes gave you abilities because they do talk about how you get superpowers and different characters can have different superpowers. So I suspect that might be what it’s from. (0:34:44) Kev: Mm-hmm. Okay, they’re sliding on a cloud now on a cloud mobile card (0:34:51) Kev: This is wild (0:34:53) Kev: What a way to start that trailer. I’m looking for more of it. Where’s the apocalypse? (0:34:54) Al: Yeah, like, I’m very intrigued. So, like, is that… My first thought is maybe that (0:35:03) Al: part is actually just the trailer for someone… Like, it doesn’t actually happen anywhere (0:35:06) Kev: Y’all definitely (0:35:10) Al: in game. I’m thinking someone in the game is trying to sell you to come to this place (0:35:15) Al: and they’re like, “Oh, real world is like the apocalypse, come here instead,” sort of (0:35:21) Al: thing or whether it actually happens and then that’s (0:35:22) Kev: It’s yeah, it’s just going to happen in like the opening cinematic and that’s it. (0:35:24) Al: just the setup for the game. (0:35:31) Al: Well, maybe, yeah, but that’s my question is does it actually (0:35:32) Kev: Oh, oh, I think it does happen. Oh, and then at the end, it’s all inside a snow globe. Okay. (0:35:33) Al: happen or does it not actually happen? (0:35:40) Al: Hmm. So there’s the other interesting question. What is (0:35:43) Al: happening here? Is this, what is this? And why are we, why did (0:35:44) Kev: I don’t know what’s happening here. (0:35:46) Al: we fly onto the moon? Why are we in amongst the stars? Like, is (0:35:50) Al: that something you can do that seems to be inside a carton (0:35:54) Al: of the snow globe on your desk? I need, I need to know more (0:36:00) Al: about this game. I will I will 100% be buying this game. (0:36:02) Kev: I need to know why the Gogotown people didn’t survive the-the-the-apocalypse. (0:36:08) Kev: Because it’s-it’s something, um, that feels like just an announcement trailer, right? So, (0:36:17) Kev: it’s all-I don’t think we actually saw any gameplay. Oh no, there’s a little bit there, minder bit. (0:36:22) Al: We can’t wait we saw limited gameplay (0:36:26) Kev: Yeah, because there’s a. (0:36:27) Al: Anyway, I’m very intrigued. I wouldn’t be surprised if this turns out to be just another farming sim (0:36:33) Al: But I’m a little or I guess it would probably be more like an animal crossing like rather than the farming sim (0:36:38) Kev: Yeah, yeah, go, go, Town Vayne, like I said, um, it uh, it, yeah, I wish they… (0:36:43) Al: Yeah, I don’t know cuz like (0:36:45) Al: Yeah, maybe maybe kind of like that (0:36:48) Al: Yeah, I don’t know, well, we’ll see, I’m intrigued, like they’re literally just (0:36:52) Al: announced this at Gamescom, and it’s coming to Steam and Consoles, but we don’t know when yet. (0:37:00) Kev: Who knows, I wish they’d lean into the apocalypse stuff. (0:37:03) Al: Oh, the website just started singing at me. (0:37:08) Kev: - That sounds right. (0:37:09) Al: Oh, no, I don’t know how to stop it. There we go, I’ve muted it. Right, let’s try that again. (0:37:14) Al: What were you saying? (0:37:16) Kev: Just, I wish it leaned to the apocalypse more, that’s all. (0:37:21) Kev: That’d be something. (0:37:22) Al: Yeah, yeah, yeah, we’ll see. (0:37:25) Al: Cool, so I think that’s all the news. (0:37:30) Al: Next we’re going to talk about Mika and the Witch’s Mountain. (0:37:34) Al: Just now that we’re starting this part of the episode, I need to put the disclosure (0:37:39) Al: out there again. (0:37:40) Al: We did receive one review code from GB Games, so that is what it is. (0:37:49) Al: our review of the game will not be affected. (0:37:52) Al: by that but that is something we need to tell you by law so a quick introduction to (0:37:52) Kev: Nope. (0:37:57) Kev: There you go. (0:38:02) Al: the game as Kevin joked early in the episode it is I have forgotten the name of the yeah (0:38:10) Kev: Studio Ghibli. (0:38:12) Al: no the film though yes Kiki’s Delivery Service it’s basically Kiki’s Delivery Service in (0:38:13) Kev: Sticky’s Delivery Service. (0:38:18) Kev: Sticky’s Delivery Service cross Wind Waker, because boy, that is a Wind Waker park style. (0:38:18) Al: in a game, right? (0:38:28) Al: Yeah, yeah very much so. So you are a little witch who has to deliver (0:38:29) Kev: They promised and they delivered. (0:38:35) Al: packages to people to get to the top of a mountain. And you honor a broom. (0:38:39) Kev: Yes, they’re paying you to get them in you can buy the broom that that’s how it works (0:38:44) Kev: It’s not as if they’re guarding their guarding your way to the mountain (0:38:48) Al: Yeah, I guess we’ll expand I guess a bit more on the broom later on. But yeah, that’s kind (0:38:48) Kev: You cannot pass until you deliver this (0:38:52) Kev: Fish to the captain (0:39:00) Al: of the summary of the game. I guess let’s start on quickly talk about the looks and (0:39:08) Al: the sound and stuff like that, because obviously, we’ve both talked about we like how this game (0:39:12) Al: looks before we’ve played it. But now we’ve actually played it. What do you think? (0:39:14) Kev: Still like how it looks! Shocker! (0:39:20) Al: Yeah, I just sometimes like, I mean, I don’t know how it runs on the switch, but it like (0:39:22) Kev: Yep. No. (0:39:24) Al: ran really well on my Steam Deck. I wasn’t seeing any issues. (0:39:26) Kev: Yeah, it was running fine. It was running fine on Switch. I didn’t see any big issues either. (0:39:31) Kev: Oh, I guess for context, Al has completed the game. I made it very far, but did not complete it as of yet. (0:39:38) Kev: But I very much enjoy the game. (0:39:44) Kev: It’s interesting how Chibi will shift art styles between different games set in the same universe or whatever, but it looks quite nice. (0:39:52) Al: Oh and and boy is this set in the universe the same universe they make it very clear (0:39:58) Al: this is set in the same universe. I counted I think four different characters in this game (0:40:04) Kev: I was like, yeah they namedrop Mara, they’ll do well, we’ll get into that in the story I guess, (0:40:13) Kev: but yeah, there’s plenty of familiar faces. Yeah, but no, I love the presentation, like it is very (0:40:21) Kev: much just, you know, imitate Wind Waker, but you know what, I really like the Wind Waker art style, (0:40:26) Kev: so that’s fine by me. They didn’t do a bad job of it, I’ll say that. (0:40:29) Al: Yeah. (0:40:32) Al: Yeah, yeah. (0:40:33) Al: And sound wise, I quite liked the sound design and the music and stuff like that. (0:40:34) Kev: Also, yep, it is, yep, and I agree. Also, I will give it problems for one more thing, so like I’ve (0:40:38) Al: It’s all all very nice as well put together, I think. (0:40:48) Kev: said, expressed before, that a lot of game companies are using Studio Ghibli-like or inspired or (0:40:56) Kev: whatever, it’s a phrase, and a lot of times they don’t quite deliver on that, but I think this one (0:41:01) Kev: actually did. It captured the spirit of Kiki’s delivery service. (0:41:04) Kev: Pretty well so much that the person who sells your books is just like Kiki. (0:41:10) Al: Yeah, that’s fun. I haven’t actually seen it yet, so… (0:41:10) Kev: Um, yeah. Oh, well, that’s the view of Ghibli. It’s charming. Um, yeah. (0:41:15) Al: I only know what people have told me. (0:41:19) Al: I have so far seen one Studio Ghibli film, but I do plan to watch the rest. (0:41:22) Kev: Wait, which one was it? (0:41:24) Al: The Boy and the Heron. (0:41:25) Kev: No, I’m not saying that, but I just looked up. All right. (0:41:28) Al: It’s good. It’s very good. And despite everything, I would highly (0:41:32) Al: recommend watching the dub, because the voice acting in the dub is (0:41:38) Al: Excellent. It’s very good. (0:41:40) Al: It’s not a lot of dubs are pretty half-hearted. This is very excellent. If you’ve ever won. (0:41:44) Kev: yeah the studio Ghibli dubs usually I think are pretty solid they get good (0:41:52) Kev: talent I got Billy crystal for us moving first castle oh really huh yeah oh well (0:41:57) Al: They have Robert Pattinson and the boy in the heron. (0:42:01) Al: He plays the heron. (0:42:04) Al: And he puts everything into that, like he’s not folding it in. (0:42:08) Al: It’s a very good performance. (0:42:11) Kev: He is a good actor, and I’m glad he put effort into it. (0:42:13) Al: Yeah. (0:42:16) Kev: Unfortunately, he was not here to voice the captain, or whatever, but overall, I loved (0:42:28) Kev: the presentation. (0:42:29) Kev: There’s a few things, like the chibigs, the Walmart, or whatever you want to call it, (0:42:37) Kev: of standard of slightly awkward English translations at times. (0:42:40) Al: Yes. (0:42:41) Kev: But in general, I didn’t have any problems with it. (0:42:48) Kev: And you have access to pretty much the whole map at the beginning. (0:42:52) Kev: You can fly around and see the different areas and stuff. (0:42:56) Al: Well, except the bits that you need to get to at the end. But yeah, they’re quite limited to the (0:42:58) Kev: Yeah, yeah, I said mostly. (0:43:00) Kev: Yeah. Yeah. (0:43:03) Al: extra bits. So yeah, it’s mostly you can access most of the game from the very start. And I guess (0:43:12) Al: let’s go into that. So we could talk about the flying and the brooms because you start off with (0:43:18) Al: a broken broom and you have to get it fixed and you have a fixed broom. And then of course, yeah, (0:43:22) Kev: Because, of course. (0:43:24) Al: Yeah, you have to do that. (0:43:26) Al: And then as you do more deliveries and you get more money, then your friend can upgrade your broom for you. (0:43:33) Al: And the broom does different things. (0:43:36) Al: It can act as though there’s like air currents, which your very first broom can’t use. (0:43:44) Al: You just kind of get pushed off to the side, whereas the second broom will let you use them. (0:43:46) Kev: Yeah, you know both horizontal and vertical so you can speed boost or rise yeah (0:43:50) Al: And then the later horizontal and vertical. (0:43:54) Al: Yeah. And then there’s. (0:43:56) Al: One that gives you this like extra air boosts that are hanging in the air that one of the brooms gives you access to. (0:43:59) Kev: Yeah, like the midair jump sort of thing (0:44:04) Al: And then the final broom there’s like a hurricane a tornado type thing not hurricane a tornado. (0:44:10) Al: On one level which you can only use if you have the final broom and that like boost you really high up in the air and that’s how you get to the top level. (0:44:17) Kev: Right. (0:44:19) Kev: Okay. (0:44:22) Al: So that’s obviously fine, it does the job. (0:44:26) Al: I will say, when I first played the game, I got very confused with the flying. (0:44:31) Al: I was expecting flying to be a bit different than it was, and this is probably a me problem. (0:44:37) Al: But I was… I don’t know why I was expecting this. You know, I’ve already talked to Johnny (0:44:43) Al: about this, and he definitely wasn’t expecting this. But I was expecting that you get on a broom (0:44:47) Al: and you can, like, fly up. You can’t fly up, basically. You’re always flying down. You can (0:44:52) Kev: Yeah. (0:44:54) Kev: Yep. (0:44:54) Al: have like if you’re close to ground. (0:44:56) Al: And you get like a little boost so you can like go up a little bit so you are actually (0:44:59) Al: above the ground. (0:45:00) Kev: Right, right, yeah, you don’t want one on the graph. (0:45:00) Al: But basically if you want to go up, you have to use the air streams or follow the land (0:45:04) Kev: Mm-hmm. (0:45:04) Al: and jump off a higher bit of land stuff like that. (0:45:06) Kev: Sure. (0:45:07) Al: And because of that, because of that’s how it works. (0:45:10) Al: Like you know how when you’re flying, you can have like two different control schemes. (0:45:14) Al: You either have like pull back, pulls you up and push forward, makes you go down. (0:45:20) Al: Or the way this was, which is when you can’t like control going up and down. (0:45:26) Al: Just control where you are. (0:45:28) Al: Like forward makes you go forward and back makes you go backwards. (0:45:32) Al: So like I was pulling backwards to go up and I was just turning round. (0:45:34) Kev: Mm hmm. Mm hmm. (0:45:35) Al: So it kept confusing me like that. (0:45:38) Al: And I suspect that’s mostly a me problem, expecting something different. (0:45:42) Al: And probably due to how much I played Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, where when you actually (0:45:46) Al: fly rather than glide, that is what it is, right? (0:45:49) Kev: Say. Yeah, yeah. (0:45:50) Al: You pull up to go up. (0:45:52) Al: So I got used to it, but yeah. (0:45:56) Al: Was a little bit kind of jarring at the (0:45:58) Kev: Sure, I didn’t have that expectation and like, I think the game, the presentation of you have, you know, a really basic broom or whatever like they’re clearly showing you’re going to be building up to it like it made sense to me. (0:46:13) Kev: But, I mean, regardless, regardless of that bit. I think the flying overall feels great. It feels exactly like how I wanted it to feel. (0:46:28) Kev: I had a demo some time ago and I was happy and they didn’t disappoint like everything else that they add to it. It all feels natural. It feels great. You can actually go pretty fast when you get the air currents and whatnot. (0:46:41) Kev: You can go far and it’s almost a sort of platforming at times, right? Because you’re trying to hit air currents or jump on islands and whatnot. (0:46:50) Kev: And I enjoyed it. Yea

We learn Mal still texts women “I had a dream about you.” (54:18) Then we debunk more right wing scare propaganda regarding Easter. Demaris presses Mal about the Drake clip and him getting killed on the timeline all weekend (1:00:34). The clock keeps ticking and all we have are more IG captions. Let's talk about music that was actually released. We give Beyonce's ‘Cowboy Carter' a review and speculate on the genre of Act III (1:17:27). It's the biggest day in women's basketball history. By the time this releases the winners will be determined but we discuss the rematch, Iowa v.s. LSU. (1:38:31) Rory has an issue with Chloe cozying up next to Gunna and Eminem plays an April Fool's prank. It's time for voicemails! We answer two fun ones today (1:50:16).
