We are still thinking about the big Nintendo Direct last week and we want to dig deeper into people's reaction to the Direct. Tons of games were announced and Nintendo shared a lot of news but somehow, there are fans who still don't seem very excited about what's to come. Why is this? Is the Nintendo Direct formula, something that Nintendo started 10+ years ago, still working to meet Nintendo's goals when there are so many expectations placed on these presentations? We dig into the history and the original goals of a Direct and examine if it's still working for Nintendo. Also in this episode, we're playing a handful of new indie games and we discovered some new details about Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 on Nintendo Switch 2. We wrap it all up with questions from our wonderful Patreon subscribers. All this and more is coming right up! 0:00 - Settle on in! 9:07 - Nintendo Direct expectations are out of control 54:16 - Games we are playing 1:17:20 - News news news 1:34:39 - Questions from our Patreon community Patreon Shout-outs! - All Hail the Final Boss - Aaron Hash - Thank you Super Stars: Ben Eichorn, MaruMayhem, Eigenverse, KissMyFlapjack, Mike Chin, Roy Eschke, Switchingitup_, vgmlife, Link The Hero of Winds, Angela Bycroft, Thomas O'Rourke, Kyle LeBoeuf, Roberto Nieves, Fredrik Ulf Konradsson, Andrew Youhas, Chilly, Simon, krashuri, Master Discord, Ash, Ajay Kudlass, Fortygig, Travis Torline, EchoLadair, That'sSoOLANELL, MSMPokegamer, Cameron, Rburns, Aigami, Kitt 10K, Adrien, Nafon Clover, TheSharkAmongMen Follow Us! https://www.patreon.com/kitandkrysta https://twitter.com/kitandkrysta https://www.tiktok.com/@kitandkrysta https://www.instagram.com/kitandkrysta/ http://www.facebook.com/kitandkrysta/ https://bsky.app/profile/kitandkrysta.bsky.social -Kit & Krysta

On this episode of the Super Retro Podcast, we laced up and reminisced about the most nostalgic non-Jordan sneakers from back in the day, shouted out the legendary Nintendo Game Counselors, and celebrated PlayStation hitting the big 3-0. We dove into latchkey kid culture, took a trip back to the mall food court, and talked about the holy grail of toys - the G.I. Joe Aircraft Carrier. Plus, we dropped some gems in the Discord, opened some epic mailbags, broke down the new Mario Galaxy movie news, soaked up that football-weather weekend vibe, checked the fits, and so much more retro goodness.Today's episode was brought to you by Salty Water.

Matt aka Stormageddon emerges from a pipe to surprise Case and Sam with the power up of a movie, The Super Mario Bros. Movie! Can they make it through with only three continues? Music by Vin Macri and Matt Brogan Podcast Edited by Sophia Ricciardi Overview In the podcast recording discussion titled "Another Pass at The Super Mario Bros Movie," hosts Case Aiken and Sam Alicea, joined by guest Matt (Stormageddon), delve into their cinematic experiences of the 2023 film, praising its 92-minute runtime and appeal to both children and nostalgic adult fans. They highlight standout performances, notably Jack Black as Bowser and Anya Taylor-Joy as a proactive Princess Peach, while critiquing Chris Pratt's portrayal of Mario as merely average. The hosts discuss the film's visual splendor and numerous Easter eggs, though they express disappointment over its reliance on pop music rather than classic Mario compositions. Despite some criticisms of the plot's formulaic nature and suggestions for improvement, the overall consensus is positive, deeming the film entertaining while respecting the franchise's legacy; potential sequels and upcoming projects are also touched upon as they conclude the episode. Notes Introduction to The Super Mario Bros Movie Discussion (00:02 - 08:33) Matt (Stormageddon) returns as a guest to discuss The Super Mario Bros Movie (2023) Case Aiken introduces podcast with co-host Sam Alicea The hosts discuss their viewing experiences of the film The 92-minute runtime is highlighted as a positive factor that keeps the movie from overstaying its welcome Initial thoughts: The film works well for both children and nostalgic adult Nintendo fans Cast Performance and Character Representation (08:33 - 18:50) Jack Black as Bowser receives unanimous praise as a standout performance Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach also praised for making the character active rather than a damsel Charlie Day as Luigi received positive reviews Chris Pratt as Mario described as 'just fine' - not as bad as internet feared but not exceptional The group appreciates Charles Martinet's cameo as Mario's father and Giuseppe The opening commercial sequence featuring the 'Super Mario Super Show' song noted as a clever homage Keegan-Michael Key's performance as Toad highlighted as charming The film successfully modernizes Princess Peach as a proactive character rather than a damsel in distress Music, Visuals and Fan Service (18:50 - 30:01) Major criticism: The film relies too heavily on pop music needle drops instead of using iconic Mario game music Case and Matt express disappointment that classic Koji Kondo compositions weren't featured more prominently The DK rap inclusion was appreciated, though Grant Kirkhope wasn't properly credited initially The visual design receives high praise, described as 'one of the most gorgeous animated films' they've seen The group appreciates the many Easter eggs and references to various Mario games Notable references: Mario Kart customization, power-ups, Rainbow Road, and Luigi's Mansion sequence Film balances content for children with nostalgic references for adult fans of the games ️ Plot Structure and Pacing (30:01 - 40:01) The basic plot follows Mario Brothers from Brooklyn to the Mushroom Kingdom Main criticism: The plot feels 'paint by numbers' and moves from set piece to set piece for fan service The hosts appreciate the quick pace preventing the film from becoming boring Donkey Kong's substantial role questioned as potentially excessive for this film The 'plumbing scene' at the beginning described as feeling too 'illumination-style' and skippable The Mario Kart sequence, while visually impressive, doesn't serve the plot significantly The movie makes excellent use of character power-ups during action sequences Luma (star creature) from Mario Galaxy highlighted as a standout supporting character Suggested Improvements (40:01 - 50:06) Matt suggests removing or reducing the Kong Kingdom sequence to streamline the story The hosts discuss using more game music instead of pop songs for needle drops Fred Armisen's casting as Cranky Kong questioned; suggestions of other older actors who might have been better The group agrees the final act works well in terms of hero's journey storytelling Suggestions that Donkey Kong could have been integrated differently - as a mid-boss or obstacle rather than major character Discussion of how the film could have better incorporated game mechanics into the storytelling The movie's brief runtime (92 minutes) praised as preventing it from overstaying its welcome Final Thoughts and Future Discussion (50:07 - 01:00:38) Overall positive consensus: While not groundbreaking, the film is entertaining and respects the source material The film succeeds as a fun, colorful movie for kids while providing nostalgic entertainment for adults Comparison to other video game adaptations like Detective Pikachu and Sonic Discussion of potential sequels and the upcoming Donkey Kong movie The hosts appreciate the film's visual quality while acknowledging its formulaic approach to storytelling Matt mentions returning for future episodes to discuss the Venom movies Discussion wraps with information about where to find the hosts and their other podcasts

But overall I’m still really enjoying, overall I’m still really (0:03:29) Al: enjoying Snap. I’m loving the idea, like different strategies and stuff like that. And yeah, (0:03:34) Al: as you mentioned, I’ve hit infinite for my, for the first time this season, which is, (0:03:38) Kev: Clap, clap, clap. Good for you. (0:03:41) Al: is fun. Yeah, I honestly never thought I would get to this point. So it’s, it’s fun to be (0:03:46) Kev: And there you go and the cool thing is it’s you know, relatively easy, you know next season cuz you’ll just be down to 70 (0:03:54) Al: Mm. Yeah, yeah, I. (0:03:54) Kev: You only have to go 30 levels not a huge climb (0:03:58) Kev: So yeah, good on you man. Um (0:04:02) Kev: Marvel snap aside (0:04:04) Kev: Sorry, go ahead (0:04:05) Al: No, no, I yeah, no, you go. (0:04:06) Kev: Okay. Okay, Marvel snap aside. Um, I’m continue to plays endless zone zero the (0:04:13) Kev: will you overst… er… er… (0:04:18) Kev: I don’t know what to call this, but it’s kind of become a daily for me because you can log in and if you want you can just do your dailies in like 5 minutes or so. (0:04:28) Kev: Because it’s really easy really quick. (0:04:32) Kev: It’s interesting to be in a game as it’s just releasing content, you know, it’s still early on. (0:04:38) Kev: There’s 3 chapters of the main story and I completed them all right so I’m just kind of… (0:04:44) Kev: my wheels, but I’m just dedicating time to improving my character. (0:04:46) Kev: It’s still not spent any money on it, but it is a game that works well for me to get in and just zone out, or whatever, and just push buttons and whatnot. (0:05:04) Kev: Yeah, that’s it. I know there’s a new chapter coming, I think they’re saying, but yeah, that’s it. (0:05:16) Kev: It’s a good style. What about you, what’s going on, other than Snapworld? (0:05:20) Al: Yeah, well, I just want to say you’ve not spent any money on that game unlike Marvel (0:05:24) Al: Snap. (0:05:26) Kev: Oh my god. Oh, I don’t want to talk, oh. (0:05:29) Al: Look, just think about what you get from it though, the amount of fun you get from it. (0:05:30) Kev: If I think about that for one second, just try to even consider how much I spent on Snapworld. Nope. (0:05:38) Kev: Were mistakes made? I don’t know. It doesn’t feel like a mistake. (0:05:42) Kev: I I do have down a lot of good for it, but (0:05:46) Al: I try and limit myself to just the season pass. (0:05:46) Kev: Yeah, me too, especially in this day and age. (0:05:51) Al: Nothing more, but I always pay for the more expensive season pass. (0:05:58) Al: Also, when I say try to, I don’t… I haven’t. (0:06:02) Al: I haven’t just stick to the season pass, but I try to. (0:06:02) Kev: Yeah. Yeah, me too. Rarely. Yeah, I agree. I haven’t done it since getting unemployed (0:06:05) Al: Most seasons, I just do the season pass. (0:06:08) Al: But yeah, there have been a few good pass packs that I’ve purchased for a fiver or whatever. (0:06:17) Kev: because obviously, but beforehand, yeah, no. And there were some that I had to like, “Oh, (0:06:17) Al: Well, yeah, yeah. (0:06:23) Kev: my rule of force.” It’s those cheap ones, you know, like the $10 one. Like, “Oh, man, (0:06:26) Al: Yeah, yeah (0:06:27) Kev: look at all this bull and the bull.” They get ya. (0:06:29) Al: Yeah, they’re dangerous (0:06:31) Al: Look, I’ve put in way less money into snap than I have into Pokemon go. So so that’s okay, right? (0:06:32) Kev: You know what? Yes. Wait, wait. Yeah. Yeah. Yes. Either way, you look at it. Yes. I haven’t (0:06:44) Kev: put any money in going. I’m proud of myself for that. So, you know. (0:06:47) Al: It’s a wise a wise decision (0:06:51) Al: What else have I been playing I have played and completed astrobot the new (0:06:56) Al: the new astrobot game which is just called astrobot. It’s confusing because (0:07:03) Al: they have astros playroom which was the free one that came with the ps5 and they (0:07:09) Al: have astrobot which is the new one that came out but they also have what was the (0:07:13) Al: other one called there was a psVR one ask no it wasn’t astrobot rescue mission (0:07:16) Kev: Wasn’t Playroom the VR one? (0:07:20) Al: that’s the VR one. I haven’t played that one but (0:07:21) Kev: Oh. (0:07:26) Al: yeah whatever. Astrobot is so fun it’s basically like it feels like a cross (0:07:33) Al: between Mario Galaxy and Mario Sunshine and I think it it’s a really nice (0:07:39) Al: crossover between those two things and it does a really nice job of every (0:07:47) Al: level feels the right length it feels like everything comes back just enough (0:07:53) Al: that you don’t get sick of anything (0:07:56) Al: like you don’t go, oh, not another one of these levels. (0:07:59) Al: And the game is a good length, I think. (0:08:02) Al: So I’ve 100%ed it, and I’ve got the Platinum trophy. (0:08:06) Al: And I think it took me about 35 hours, which (0:08:08) Al: feels like a good length to me. (0:08:11) Al: It’s not a super difficult game, but there (0:08:14) Al: are a few levels that are, if you (0:08:17) Al: want to 100% it, that are quite difficult and difficult (0:08:23) Al: platforming challenges. (0:08:27) Al: Kind of think about it like with Mario Wonder, (0:08:30) Al: most of it was reasonably easy, like not difficult. (0:08:34) Al: But there was a few right at the very end (0:08:37) Al: after the main story that were super challenging. (0:08:40) Al: But you didn’t need to do them to complete the story. (0:08:42) Kev: Okay, it’s curvy-ish in nature, um, that’s cool. (0:08:42) Al: It’s kind of like that. (0:08:46) Al: Yeah, yeah, yeah. (0:08:48) Al: No, I really think it’s super fun. (0:08:50) Al: And I mean, it’s a big PlayStation nostalgia fest. (0:08:56) Al: Like, you’re collecting bots that are all old characters (0:08:56) Kev: Yeah, it’s… it’s a shame that Sony fails to protect their legacy, though. (0:09:00) Al: and stuff like that. (0:09:06) Kev: You saw that tweet, right? (0:09:10) Kev: Okay, what? So, I didn’t understand. Are those just little… what are those characters? (0:09:16) Kev: Are they skins or are they just hanging out somewhere? Like, I don’t… you know? (0:09:20) Al: So there are other bots that you have to save who help run your ship, and some of them just (0:09:24) Kev: Okay. (0:09:26) Kev: Okay, I see. (0:09:26) Al: happen to look like characters in games. The best part about it is you’ve got, (0:09:32) Al: obviously, you’ve got Crash Bandicoot. There’s a Crash Bandicoot one. There’s an (0:09:36) Kev: Yeah, of course. (0:09:37) Al: Eloy from Horizon 1. There’s loads of other ones that I were like, “Okay, (0:09:40) Kev: Mm-hmm. (0:09:42) Al: I kind of vaguely know what that is.” There’s a Pyramid Head one. (0:09:44) Kev: Mm-hmm. (0:09:48) Al: It feels like the whole- (0:09:50) Al: The whole rest of the game is very much like kind of cutesy kidsy and then you’ve got this (0:09:55) Al: bot dressed up as pyramid head (0:09:58) Kev: Uh, well, you know, he was already in a, in a Bomberman game and his cute cartoony chibi. (0:10:06) Kev: So, okay. (0:10:07) Al: But it’s quite funny because they don’t name most of them right they have these like kind of funny names (0:10:14) Al: that kind of try and (0:10:16) Al: explain something about them without actually using the name. (0:10:20) Al: So it’s a little bit weird in that it feels kind of, I heard someone describe it, it was kind of like they’re using it without the rights to the characters. (0:10:28) Al: So it’s like a legally distinct sort of thing and the pyramid head one is he’s called the executioner. (0:10:28) Kev: okay (0:10:31) Kev: okay okay (0:10:37) Kev: why are just calling him that? (0:10:39) Al: Yeah, it’s very funny, but. (0:10:43) Kev: oh my gosh I just saw him call threat us dad of boy (0:10:46) Kev: and hgs boy (0:10:46) Al: Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. (0:10:48) Kev: that’s incredible (0:10:50) Al: Well, exactly. It’s stuff like that. It’s just very funny, silly stuff. (0:10:54) Al: I’m trying to think what else it was. Oh yeah, Thor was Thunder God. (0:10:58) Al: And it’s not like the– Aloy was Machine Hunter. (0:11:02) Al: It’s not like they didn’t have the rights to these characters. (0:11:04) Al: They are. They’re characters. Right? Like, but it’s, yeah. (0:11:04) Kev: - Yeah, yeah. (0:11:09) Al: Nathan Drake is Raider Dude. (0:11:12) Kev: Yep (0:11:14) Al: So yeah, it’s really fun. I enjoyed it a lot. (0:11:17) Al: I would really OK, I would recommend. (0:11:20) Al: I would recommend it to anybody who has a PS5. (0:11:22) Al: If you have a PS5, I don’t think you have a good reason not to buy this game. (0:11:26) Al: If you don’t have a PS5, obviously do not buy a PS5 for this game. (0:11:30) Kev: Why would you do that when you could buy the PS5 Pro for this age? (0:11:37) Kev: Well, the one with the old colors. (0:11:43) Al: Oh, it just I didn’t even notice this at the time, but they have a Boku from Boku no Natsuya Sumi. (0:11:49) Kev: Oh, wow, there you go. There’s your cottage core (0:11:56) Al: All right. Cool. I think that’s I think I’m probably done talking to Astro about now. (0:12:01) Al: Three episodes in a row. That’s probably enough for you listeners. (0:12:06) Al: Cool. So we get into some news then. (0:12:08) Kev: Yeah, I guess so. Legally obligated to. Like, no one. (0:12:13) Al: We have. First of all, Orange Season have announced that there are 1.0 releases coming on the 24th of October. (0:12:21) Kev: Okay, all right. (0:12:25) Kev: Which one’s hard? (0:12:25) Kev: Wait, is that this one or you’re growing orange trees, right? (0:12:29) Al: I don’t think it’s like specifically growing just oranges. I think it’s a standard farming game. (0:12:34) Kev: Oh, okay. (0:12:35) Al: This is the one that had like a longer name and they renamed it. It was something something Orange (0:12:38) Kev: Okay. (0:12:39) Al: season rather than and then they renamed it to just orange season (0:12:41) Kev: Oh. (0:12:43) Kev: Oh, I… (0:12:44) Al: Yeah, it just feels like a pretty standard farming game there’s nothing about this that’s like oh, I must get this (0:12:47) Kev: Yes. (0:12:50) Al: - Yes. (0:12:51) Kev: Obviously, this is an us problem, because we’re the ones (0:12:51) Al: the (0:12:54) Kev: always reading the news and whatever, so we’re the ones who feel the fatigue. (0:12:58) Kev: Oh, it’s so rough, when, you know, it’s hard to stand out, like, (0:13:02) Kev: I feel so bad that I feel- (0:13:04) Kev: so unexcited or you know like it is this one’s very paint-by-the-numbers farming. (0:13:12) Al: Woofed apparently the first early access version of this was (0:13:18) Kev: Aw, sick. (0:13:20) Kev: Oh, good times. (0:13:22) Kev: Good time. (0:13:24) Kev: Well, hey, it made it. I will say that it did make it. (0:13:26) Al: Next we have Petite Island, have released a story trailer for the game. This is definitely (0:13:39) Al: not Animal Crossing. I mean it looks nice blah blah blah, too many games. (0:13:42) Kev: It’s, it’s animal intercession. (0:13:46) Kev: Aww. (0:13:48) Kev: Let me see. (0:13:50) Kev: Yeah. (0:13:52) Kev: They have, what is that? (0:13:54) Kev: Calico cat? Is that what it’s called? (0:13:56) Kev: It’s a cute, it is a cute cat. I’ll say that. (0:14:00) Kev: Oh my gosh, I don’t understand. (0:14:02) Kev: Did you have to go for the island motif? (0:14:04) Kev: You, you horizons cave out. (0:14:09) Al: Everything has to be an island or a valley, or both. (0:14:12) Kev: Oh gosh. All right. (0:14:14) Al: Next we have Paleo Pines. (0:14:16) Kev: Oh, oh wait, this one I care about, actually. (0:14:18) Al: New DLCs and a new update coming out (0:14:21) Al: on the 26th of September. (0:14:22) Kev: What are we getting? (0:14:26) Kev: Two deals. Wait, they’re playing it. (0:14:30) Kev: Michael Jackson’s Thriller is to Michael. (0:14:34) Kev: The trailer is to Michael Jackson’s Thriller. (0:14:36) Al: I don’t think they’ve announced anything about them. I’m just looking at their news. All I see is the names and then the announcement that they’re coming on the 26th. So we’ll see. (0:14:38) Kev: I didn’t expect that. (0:14:40) Kev: Oh, spooky stuffs, I guess. (0:14:48) Kev: Mm-hmm, okay (0:14:55) Kev: Okay, they’re probably just in-game events then adding new holidays or something. That’s probably what it is. All right, cool cool cool (0:15:00) Al: Yeah. We’ll see. We’ll keep you up to date when we get more information. (0:15:07) Al: Next, an update that we do have more information on. Gogotown, their major content update is now out. I think we recorded last time like four hours before it came out. So we didn’t have a lot of information. (0:15:18) Kev: Of course, of course. (0:15:21) Al: But yeah, we do have more information now. The biggest question I had was how the redoing of the industry zones works and you can basically decide how much space and how many on industry zones you have. (0:15:37) Al: Which is cool. I’m still not sure because I haven’t actually booted up the game since they’ve updated it. I’m still not sure how that affects the literal cave that exists and whether you can move that or not. (0:15:48) Kev: Mm-Hmm (0:15:50) Kev: Huh. (0:15:51) Al: But the rest of it makes sense. I guess you can just go. This is an area where we have mining and this is the area where we have trees and stuff like that. And more importantly, these are the places we have farming. (0:16:04) Kev: I’ll wait for 1.0 and this is good news, it sounds like stuff that’s good for 1.0. (0:16:04) Al: because they pointed out like you could set up one farm for animals. (0:16:06) Al: And a lot of crops, for example, so that’s cool. (0:16:10) Al: I need to spend some time with this update and see how it actually feels. (0:16:21) Al: Yeah, yeah. (0:16:22) Al: And they’ve added a bunch of expanded areas which you can purchase as you go, which is cool. (0:16:28) Al: And we got more information about the subways as well, so they’ve added in subways. (0:16:33) Al: It’s a little bit weird in that it’s very much. (0:16:36) Al: Clearly meant to be like a train subway, but you just walk in and then you walk out of a different exit to get to a different place. (0:16:44) Al: So it’s just kind of, it’s not even going to, it’s not even pretending that you’re actually getting on a train, which is a little bit weird, but simplest, probably implementation. (0:16:50) Kev: can’t they at least can’t they can’t they at least throw in the spider-man the metro (0:17:02) Al: Yeah, exactly, exactly. (0:17:03) Kev: little cutscenes in between (0:17:06) Al: Um, and the, the bike place spaces and the car parks are pretty cool. (0:17:13) Al: Uh, I noticed that they have a way to be able to summon vehicles that aren’t a (0:17:17) Al: specific one, which is nice as well. (0:17:18) Al: So if you’ve lost a vehicle or you’re on the other side of a map. (0:17:24) Kev: No, that’s great. (0:17:25) Kev: Alright. (0:17:27) Al: Yeah I think that’s the main three things. There’s a bunch of other kind of extra (0:17:31) Al: content and stuff but yeah I definitely need to need to try this out. (0:17:36) Kev: Mm-hmm (0:17:36) Al: Next we have Moonstone Island. We’re getting all our favorite games today. (0:17:43) Al: The festivals update is coming on the 30th of September and this has, can you guess, new (0:17:49) Al: festivals! There’s also some new spirits. I feel like this is one really good thing about… (0:17:50) Kev: Wow. Blowing my mind here, Al. (0:17:57) Al: they seem to add in a new spirit every update no matter how big the update is. (0:18:02) Kev: Yeah, it does like so (0:18:05) Kev: Okay, I think I’ve discussed this before like I wish I I appreciate them putting the work in love for it (0:18:13) Kev: But I’d rather they just make the spirit and hold off till they can release like kind of them at once (0:18:18) Al: interesting. Why do you say so? (0:18:19) Kev: Yeah, I like okay. Well, you know what? It’s honestly like going back (0:18:24) Kev: Let’s say that’s the motivating factor for me, right? Like I like to collect the spirits, right? Just going back for one (0:18:29) Kev: I don’t know. It feels very (0:18:32) Kev: Whatever because it’s not like anything any sort of special event fruit or whatever. You just it’s a random counter in the wild, you know (0:18:40) Kev: It’s a very small thing to look forward to whereas if it’s a ten (0:18:44) Kev: Okay, that’s at least a little more to to go through and motivate me getting getting them (0:18:46) Al: Yeah, so this this one’s four specifically (0:18:51) Kev: Okay, all right, um, the designs are usually good though, so I’m looking forward to see what they are (0:18:57) Kev: One big thing (0:18:58) Al: The the cooking update also get added for I’m just checking the previous ones as well (0:19:00) Kev: - Yeah. (0:19:02) Kev: I don’t know, well, it’s been a few updates, (0:19:04) Kev: so maybe I will check it out soon. (0:19:06) Kev: No, why not? (0:19:07) Al: Yeah if you’ve not if you’ve not played it since the first version it definitely feels like it’s (0:19:08) Kev: Maybe it’ll feel like 10. (0:19:11) Al: It’s a good time to jump in (0:19:13) Kev: Yeah, but honestly, the biggest problem for me (0:19:16) Kev: with Moonstone Island and their updates, (0:19:18) Kev: like it just, I don’t know, (0:19:21) Kev: it almost doesn’t make sense to me how they’re doing it, (0:19:26) Kev: because all their updates feel very like, (0:19:29) Kev: you know, the Cottagecore focus on decorations (0:19:33) Kev: and festivals and things like that, right? (0:19:35) Kev: But the game is still so very, like, (0:19:38) Kev: plot mode or objective motivated, let me say that. (0:19:43) Kev: And they haven’t really added more missions (0:19:45) Kev: or post-game things like that, (0:19:46) Al: Hmm (0:19:47) Kev: just left to decorate your house. (0:19:50) Kev: And like, and spirits, right? (0:19:53) Kev: Like, so, you know, you collect the spirits, (0:19:57) Kev: but I guess you have them, and that’s it, I guess. (0:20:00) Kev: I don’t know. (0:20:02) Kev: Oh, cool, now I see the little image (0:20:04) Kev: of the spirits being added on those mitten, that’s good. (0:20:08) Kev: But I don’t know, yeah, that’s all I really want, (0:20:10) Kev: more than anything from Moonstone Island, (0:20:12) Kev: you know, something actually to work towards (0:20:14) Kev: or to feel like to use my spirits for. (0:20:16) Al: Yeah, so it looks like it it looks like one of the so I’ve just gone through all the updates (0:20:18) Kev: Yeah, because, mm-hmm. (0:20:23) Al: since they released. One of them had three and all the others had four. So, yeah, it (0:20:24) Kev: Yeah. (0:20:27) Kev: Okay, all right, well, that’s a decent number altogether. (0:20:29) Al: doesn’t feel like a ridiculously low number to go with each update for but. (0:20:32) Kev: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I agree. (0:20:36) Kev: All right, but it is what it is. (0:20:38) Kev: I’m glad the game’s still being worked on, I’d still give it. (0:20:43) Al: Next, we have Seasons Spree. We talked about this at some point. I can’t remember when. (0:20:49) Al: I know we talked about it because it’s on my wish list. It’s out now, so if you care (0:20:57) Al: about this game, which again, definitely not Animal Crossing. I think it does do one interesting (0:21:04) Kev: how gosh one of the first things (0:21:07) Al: thing. It says that you control the flow of time just by walking around. (0:21:12) Kev: That’s okay, I don’t know I’m looking at it like it’s around spherical world (0:21:18) Al: Yeah, but that seems to be your progressing time as you’re moving left and right. (0:21:23) Kev: Yeah (0:21:25) Kev: Then that is an interesting mechanic. I will say that (0:21:30) Kev: So I wonder how well they utilize that (0:21:34) Kev: That is interesting (0:21:37) Kev: But are you excited for a cozy world because that’s one of the first things pieces of text in the trailer (0:21:41) Al: I love a cosy world nothing makes me more excited to be game than cosy world. (0:21:43) Kev: Wow (0:21:47) Kev: There you go, well season sprees got you covered don’t you worry (0:21:54) Al: We also have a steam page up for my time at ever shine now with a lot more information (0:22:00) Al: it’s very funny because they announced that this game was coming with no information and (0:22:04) Al: then like a week later the steam page is up with paragraphs and paragraphs and like ten (0:22:11) Al: different videos and screenshots of what’s happening in the game. (0:22:14) Kev: You know, I kind of like that, actually, like that, you know, (0:22:19) Kev: the first announcement isn’t a proper teaser, actually, right? (0:22:23) Kev: Like just if there’s a thing and we just wonder (0:22:26) Kev: and then they drop all the information. (0:22:28) Kev: I like that. That’s you. (0:22:29) Al: But like a week though, that feels really fast. (0:22:32) Kev: Oh, you’re right. OK. Weak is fast. You’re right. (0:22:35) Kev: But in general, I like the strength, but I like you. (0:22:39) Kev: Well, but hey, hey, what really matters? (0:22:42) Kev: You know what? Everyone wants to hear out. (0:22:45) Kev: The biggest announcement they’re developing (0:22:47) Kev: for currently unannounced Nintendo platforms. (0:22:50) Al: Oh no, I didn’t want to talk about this! (0:22:54) Kev: Oh, you thought you were going to get away with me on here? (0:22:54) Al: Oh my word, I forgot all about this. (0:22:56) Kev: It’s just. But. (0:22:58) Al: Okay, right, so, so many articles popped up and like, “Oh, (0:23:05) Al: first game confirmed for the Switch 2. Oh, we’ve got Switch 2 game!” (0:23:10) Al: And you’re like, “Okay, well let me read what they’ve actually said.” What they’ve (0:23:13) Al: said is, “We are committed to releasing this on the next (0:23:17) Al: Nintendo console and you’re like (0:23:20) Al: that is not first of all shut up secondly that is not anything like what you’re saying it is (0:23:28) Al: and thirdly it’s not even the first game that said that there are many games that have said (0:23:33) Al: they’re going to do that this is not a first it made it sound like it was an official announcement (0:23:40) Al: about the new console and it was nothing like that. (0:23:40) Kev: Yeah (0:23:45) Kev: Search to announce through my time at ever seen update (0:23:51) Al: I’m just- the good- the interesting thing about this- (0:23:53) Kev: Still more games than the PlayStation 5 already. I just want to say (0:24:00) Al: I mean half of the- so there’s only like 20 exclusive ps5 games and half of them are remakes. (0:24:06) Kev: Sick (0:24:08) Al: What was I saying? Yes, so the interesting thing about My Time at Evershine is that they do appear (0:24:14) Al: to be using a new character model which looks like much more like actual humans. (0:24:18) Al: Thank you very much. (0:24:21) Kev: Wow, I want to step up. (0:24:22) Al: Proper dimensions and proportions. (0:24:25) Al: I mean, I think it is. (0:24:26) Al: I think they look much better like this. (0:24:29) Al: I think some people probably prefer the previous character models. (0:24:30) Kev: No, I get what you’re saying. (0:24:32) Kev: Yeah, I get what you’re saying, (0:24:34) Kev: but it just, it also can sound like (0:24:36) Kev: they were using freak abominations before. (0:24:40) Al: They did have very big heads in the previous game. (0:24:41) Kev: Yeah, oh no, those, yeah. (0:24:44) Kev: Those are people, people, all right. (0:24:46) Kev: Wow, that’s a Breath of the Wild. (0:24:48) Kev: Wow. That’s good. (0:24:50) Kev: Breath of the Wild with dofers with hats on there. (0:24:53) Kev: Okay. Okay. Oh. (0:24:54) Al: I mean, I’ll be honest, unless they’ve fundamentally changed how the crafting works, I’m not playing (0:25:00) Kev: Yeah, no, I mean, it’s like, oh my gosh, I don’t know how to feel about this. (0:25:05) Kev: Okay, it feels, I don’t know, and going more in a normal portion, it almost feels a little more generic. (0:25:12) Al: Yeah, that’s fair. That’s fair (0:25:12) Kev: Um, uh, here we go, my time at power, non, non-loss-suit edition. (0:25:14) Al: You (0:25:22) Kev: Let’s, uh, okay, well, there you go. (0:25:24) Al: All right, well, we also have some new games because the list of new games is never ending. (0:25:33) Al: First of all, we have The Last Farmer. (0:25:36) Al: The Last Farmer is not just a tale of survival. (0:25:40) Al: It’s a journey of restoration amidst the sprawling deserts of a forgotten Texas. (0:25:45) Al: I mean, don’t we all wish Texas was forgotten? (0:25:48) Kev: Okay. Oh, oh wow. Wow. This is not what I expected. Sorry, I just clicked on the little. It’s not (0:25:48) Al: Your farm becomes a symbol of hope and persistence. (0:25:59) Kev: the aesthetic I expected at all. No, no, I didn’t. Oh, no. The local looks like (0:26:00) Al: You didn’t expect, you didn’t expect a zombie game? (0:26:05) Al: And oh, my word, there’s the. (0:26:11) Al: Zombies, just listen to this sentence. (0:26:15) Al: Zombies can be processed into fertilizer, helping you restore the fertility of the dead land. (0:26:22) Al: You have a literal meat grinder that you put a zombie on and it turns it into (0:26:27) Al: fertilizer and it does not. (0:26:30) Al: It does not hide away what it’s doing. (0:26:32) Kev: Aww, it’s SICK. (0:26:32) Al: It is like so clear what is this. Horrific. (0:26:35) Kev: That’s kind of sick. That’ll, you know, leaning in all the way. (0:26:39) Kev: Oh my gosh, so… oh my god. (0:26:42) Kev: I’m just… still recovering from the sh… the jump scare I got you from, but that, like, jump scare just completely unexpected. (0:26:53) Kev: So when they say “the last farmer,” they mean “the last of us farmer.” (0:26:58) Kev: that’s what they mean because that’s that is the aesthetic that’s (0:26:58) Al: - Yeah, yeah, that’s pretty much what it is. (0:27:02) Kev: the local that is what they’re saying you are the last of us (0:27:05) Kev: far oh wow (0:27:06) Al: Farming is only part of survival. You’ll need to craft tools and firearms to defend yourself and maintain your farm. (0:27:12) Al: Resources can be processed into biofuel, which is vital for keeping your operation running and surviving in this harsh state. (0:27:12) Kev: there you go (0:27:20) Kev: there you go (0:27:23) Kev: oh okay (0:27:24) Kev: you got me oh my god okay (0:27:26) Kev: sorry I just looked at the next link and I got another bitch hah! (0:27:29) Al: All right well let’s go on to the next one then. Uh cast away. Retrieve your weapons. Face bosses (0:27:35) Kev: Oh my gosh. (0:27:35) Al: to save your dog in a retro adventure focused on three dungeons. Finish the story mode to unlock (0:27:41) Al: the survivor mode. A 50 floor death tower. You’ll enjoy classic mechanics, charming visual style, (0:27:46) Al: and enchanting soundtrack. Um is this not actually farming? I don’t think this is farming at all is (0:27:52) Al: it? Why did I add this into the list? Is there no farming in this at all? I’m sure. (0:27:53) Kev: No, I don’t. I’m looking at it. (0:27:59) Al: I added this in for a reason. (0:28:01) Kev: Like, I’m looking, I’m playing the trailer. I don’t know. (0:28:04) Al: Nope I don’t know how this managed to get in there but (0:28:08) Kev: I don’t know why you added a… (0:28:10) Al: it’s a Zelda game. (0:28:11) Kev: It is not just a Zelda game. It is the Link’s Awakening. It is the power of the equivalent (0:28:17) Al: Yeah yeah. (0:28:20) Kev: of Link’s Awakening. (0:28:23) Kev: Wow, they’re character, it’s just Breath of the Wild Link, wow, wow, okay, boy I hope you’d (0:28:28) Al: You know what, I think I probably did. (0:28:29) Kev: yeah, I don’t blame you, like that’s a common trope for us, well I hope they don’t have (0:28:30) Al: I probably saw the word cast away and just assumed it was a farming game. (0:28:41) Kev: any mechanics that are plantive, oh, okay, what’s next, is the next one actually Cottage (0:28:44) Al: This one’s definitely Cottagecore. We have Artisan Story. Aspiring to be the best artisan (0:28:47) Kev: Club. Oh, oh, yeah, story. (0:28:53) Kev: You know it, you know it, it’s. (0:28:58) Al: in the world are young artisans are opening their workshop complete with a monster ranch. (0:29:03) Al: Monsters from the dungeon tend to your fan. I mean, it’s Rune Factory, right? (0:29:08) Kev: It’s- It- Every- You- You’ve ruined the genre for me, Al. Every game is just a Yahtzee of other games now. This is just a ruined factory. (0:29:16) Al: Sorry. (0:29:18) Kev: Hahaha. (0:29:22) Al: Is this how this podcast dies? (0:29:24) Al: With a whimper of the hahaha. (0:29:26) Kev: Oh, that was, that was without question. (0:29:30) Kev: What’s, oh, what’s, what’s the gummy guy game, the gummy bum drop guy? (0:29:36) Kev: I can’t remember physics based one. (0:29:38) Al: Oh, yes, Southfield, yes. (0:29:44) Kev: what is it called southfield i’m gonna go look at southfield to see what it’s just as (0:29:49) Al: Make yourself feel better. (0:29:54) Kev: verbal drink for my eyes because oh my goodness this is this is a rune factory what’s the artist (0:29:59) Kev: oh my gosh and the name it’s uh we’re just oh my gosh (0:30:06) Al: So you’re not excited about this? (0:30:08) Kev: oh but you know the worst part is it looks it it actually looks or at least (0:30:14) Kev: the trailer like I you know assuming I don’t know if this all the in-game or whatever but (0:30:18) Kev: it does look um the visual presentation is nice they’re kind of going for the octopath (0:30:24) Kev: 2.5 d what are you gonna call it right with kind of flat sprites whatever yeah with flat (0:30:26) Al: 2d HD or what? Yeah (0:30:30) Kev: sprites on a uh a uh 3d world um so oh my gosh some of the monster designs that I mean they (0:30:38) Kev: they work well but they’re they’re just ripping off other things it’s the characters that get me (0:30:44) Kev: those are just rune factory I mean you know it doesn’t help rune factories already (0:30:48) Kev: never gets into those designs but oh my gosh it’s clear what we’re going for oh (0:30:52) Al: Alright, let’s finish off the new games with Luma Island. (0:30:59) Kev: we need a section of new games in quotes and actually new games (0:31:04) Kev: uh (0:31:04) Al: Oh yeah look, it’s another island. Travel to Luma Island to go on an epic adventure by yourself (0:31:10) Al: or with your friends and family. Build your dream farm, master professions, collect magical (0:31:17) Al: lumas, find treasures and unravel the mysteries of the island. (0:31:21) Kev: Finally, we can build our dream farm and unravel missions of an island. (0:31:26) Al: I will say I quite like the the graphics in this game. It is the art style, it’s kind of, (0:31:32) Al: It feels like it’s trying to do. (0:31:34) Al: I’m going to do pixel art in three. (0:31:37) Kev: Yeah, yeah, I can see what you’re saying. Yeah, I can go where it reminds me of fabled them a little less cartoony (0:31:43) Kev: Um, like you said, I think yeah the pixel heart and 3d kind of like rounded fully rounded (0:31:48) Kev: I can kind of I see what you’re saying (0:31:51) Kev: Um, it it does look nice the visuals. Um (0:31:55) Kev: You know nothing like it’s not super (0:31:58) Kev: Super stylized the characters are fine, but it looks nice. It’s it’s well done. I’ll say that right. Um, and we can rotate the camera (0:32:06) Kev: I like that. (0:32:06) Al: Yeah, I hate how, I hate how every scene is just the camera constantly rotating, I’m feeling (0:32:07) Kev: I’ll say this. (0:32:08) Kev: I… (0:32:09) Kev: Yeah it is. (0:32:10) Kev: Yeah you can. (0:32:11) Kev: I get it. (0:32:12) Kev: You’re right. (0:32:13) Kev: You’re sober. (0:32:14) Kev: I appreciate… (0:32:15) Kev: Like I said before, I appreciate it when they go for 3D because, or generally speaking, (0:32:25) Kev: I do. (0:32:26) Kev: Looking at you, artist in story. (0:32:28) Kev: Because it’s so easy to do a Stardew clone. (0:32:32) Kev: But it looks nice. (0:32:34) Kev: I’ll say that. (0:32:36) Kev: Feels very like a san- (0:32:37) Kev: boxy sort of game, I don’t know what a luma is, but uh, there you go, luma, I’m- (0:32:40) Al: Uh, it’s the, the, the star from Mario. (0:32:44) Al: » [LAUGH] (0:32:44) Kev: I d- I’ve no- I was- I- I probably make a joke, but I lost the train in my head, so. (0:32:52) Kev: But yeah. Where’s that game? Where is this? (0:32:54) Al: I… well Mario farming game. A Luma farming game. (0:32:57) Kev: Ye- oh, yes. Tour, I don’t know. (0:33:01) Kev: Lu- yeah, why not? (0:33:03) Al: You’re just… you’re playing as Rosalina and you’re breeding Lumas, (0:33:03) Kev: Somebody’s gotta grow crops on that spaceship. (0:33:07) Kev: You know, I hate how much I love that concept of fiction. (0:33:10) Al: sending them off in to make stars. (0:33:17) Kev: Well, that’d be great. (0:33:19) Kev: Well, I’d love a game just running the starship, whatever, the observatory, whatever, with Rosalina. (0:33:27) Kev: Oh my gosh, that’d be great. (0:33:28) Al: all right there we go that’s that’s the only one that I’m looking at out of this (0:33:29) Kev: Thank you, Luma Island, for giving us that concept. (0:33:33) Kev: - Okay. (0:33:36) Al: list and going I could see myself playing (0:33:38) Kev: » Yeah, that is by far the best one, (0:33:40) Kev: because it’s the only one that’s not complete knockoff of something else. (0:33:45) Kev: » Yep, we had Last of Us, Link’s Awakening, and Rune Factory. (0:33:51) Kev: New entry synapse for them. (0:33:54) Al: All right, so that’s all the news and the new games. We are now going to do our Stardew (0:33:54) Kev: » [SOUND] (0:33:59) Kev: » Okay. (0:34:01) Al: character tier list. A few ground rules for this. First of all, it is every single character (0:34:03) Kev: » Tier list. (0:34:05) Kev: OK, so– (0:34:07) Kev: That’s the sign for you listeners to, you know, turn us off. (0:34:10) Kev: Lest you, you know, hear our awful, awful opinions. (0:34:18) Kev: OK. (0:34:20) Al: in Stardew, every single one. (0:34:21) Kev: All right. (0:34:24) Al: Secondly, we’re going to do this as there’s five tiers. There’s S, A, B, C, and D. (0:34:31) Al: We’re just going to argue about it until we agree on something. Some of them I think will be pretty (0:34:35) Al: obvious, but there might be some that we have to kind of disagree on and argue and finally get to (0:34:40) Kev: - All right, sure. (0:34:41) Al: decision. And just for listeners, if you’re hearing this part of the podcast, that’s because (0:34:47) Al: I got the video successful. We are hopefully going to have a video of this, of Bill (0:34:54) Al: building the tier list. We’ll see if it works or not, but I am sharing my screen with Kevin. (0:35:01) Al: He can see what I’m doing, and we’re going to build up this tier list together. (0:35:05) Al: If that doesn’t work, there’ll be an image of the tier list as well. I mean, there’ll be an image (0:35:09) Al: of the tier list either way, because can’t make people watch the video just to see the visual of (0:35:14) Al: it. But yeah, we’ll see how that goes. Okay, so we’re starting off. We’re just going to take this (0:35:18) Kev: Okay, let’s do this. (0:35:22) Al: in the order that they have them. (0:35:24) Al: in this list. First up we have Abigail. (0:35:26) Al: Oh, it may be alphabetical, yeah. (0:35:26) Kev: uh I think this is this alphabetical I don’t know whatever i’m at evergills (0:35:33) Kev: she’s fine I guess we I don’t know i’m pretty indifferent (0:35:38) Al: I’m thinking A, personally, because she eats rocks. (0:35:40) Kev: okay (0:35:45) Kev: wow I don’t remember that detail a for sure (0:35:49) Al: I think she’s fun, and she’s a little bit weird, and I like weird. (0:35:53) Kev: Yeah, you know, you know what? Hold on, I’m remembering. (0:35:57) Kev: He’s the product of an affair, basically, right? (0:35:59) Kev: That’s the implication we’re getting. (0:36:03) Kev: So, you know what? (0:36:03) Al: She literally, you give her amethyst and she will eat the amethyst. (0:36:06) Kev: Oh, oh, oh, that’s right! (0:36:08) Al: Like, it’s not even, it’s not even hinted at. It is very clear she eats the amethyst. (0:36:10) Kev: All right, A tier for that alone. (0:36:16) Kev: Yep, I’m down for it. (0:36:16) Al: And I love that. Okay, cool. Alex. He is the jock. Um, I will say the one thing that kind (0:36:17) Kev: I’m down for that. (0:36:18) Kev: All right, A tier for Abigail, absolutely. (0:36:22) Kev: He, I guess, he’s the jock, right? (0:36:29) Al: of like justifies him is that if you, if you are a male character in the game and you go (0:36:36) Al: the relationship with Alex he (0:36:38) Al: kind of goes through a journey of self-discovery. (0:36:42) Kev: That’s pretty cool actually, I didn’t realize that. (0:36:45) Kev: If you want to go A for that, I don’t mind it. (0:36:47) Kev: I’m fine. (0:36:48) Kev: B, A, whatever you want. (0:36:48) Al: Yeah, Mogo B. He’s a little bit more rounded than some of the other characters, but I don’t (0:36:49) Kev: That is a nice touch, the fact that they made the effort for that. (0:36:54) Kev: Alright, B. (0:36:58) Al: think he’s quite A. (0:37:04) Al: Next we have The Bouncer from Calico Desert. (0:37:08) Kev: that’s (0:37:11) Kev: Does his job well (0:37:11) Al: So as far as I know, he has exactly two lines, one of which is “No, you’re not getting in” (0:37:19) Al: and the other one of which is “OK, on you go”. (0:37:20) Kev: Perfect. Nailed it. No notes. He delivered. He promised. He came. He delivered. I had (0:37:23) Al: And that’s it. (0:37:27) Al: I don’t know what to say. (0:37:31) Kev: a boy last week. I almost want to say yes because there’s nothing else. It’s up. Or (0:37:42) Al: I mean, he’s not particularly… (0:37:43) Kev: just you have to put him in B because that’s the normal. He’s not good or bad. That would (0:37:48) Kev: be the. (0:37:49) Al: OK, sure, fine. (0:37:51) Al: Let’s put The Bouncer from Calico Desert into B. (0:37:56) Al: Next we have Caroline. (0:38:01) Al: So Caroline gives you tea. (0:38:07) Al: That’s her best thing. (0:38:09) Al: No, she’s married to Pierre. (0:38:12) Al: She’s Abigail’s mum. (0:38:12) Kev: Okay, okay, okay, okay. Oh, so she’s the one who had the affair. Oh, yeah. Oh, that’s spicy (0:38:18) Al: She’s a little bit more of a married girl. (0:38:24) Kev: I’m (0:38:25) Kev: Good. They only kind of briefly reference that they don’t lean into it too much. I can get kind of get why but (0:38:30) Al: Mm-hmm (0:38:34) Kev: Like I wish they kind of did that would be a good plot line to follow through with (0:38:39) Kev: But yes, and remembering her now. Yeah, she’s just kind of there isn’t she? (0:38:42) Kev: um (0:38:43) Al: she’s fine. Yeah. I don’t think she’s particularly bad. Are we thinking B? Yeah. See what’s the (0:38:48) Kev: Maybe see even I don’t know cuz like (0:38:53) Kev: Just not as memorable as Alex or the bouncer that’s the only thing (0:38:58) Kev: But I mean, yeah, I don’t know. I’m fine either way. I’m not TV (0:38:58) Al: OK, fine, fine, let’s go see. (0:39:02) Kev: Okay. Well this call the next one calls for the establishment of a new tier the Flint tier at the bottom (0:39:08) Al: The Clint tier where we have very bad kerning between the L and the I, yeah. (0:39:11) Kev: Do we have to go? (0:39:18) Al: Yeah, he’s D tier, right? (0:39:18) Kev: - Well done. (0:39:23) Al: He doesn’t learn anything, he never has any personal growth, he’s just a little grumpy (0:39:28) Al: who can never admit that his problems are somewhat self-inflicted and could absolutely (0:39:35) Al: be solved. (0:39:36) Al: There’s no reason why he couldn’t get into a relationship with Emily if he actually tried. (0:39:49) Al: She is a lovely person and she gives him plenty of opportunities and he never even bothers (0:39:52) Al: to try. (0:39:53) Al: And he gets grumpy when you get in a relationship with her, despite the fact that he was never (0:39:57) Al: doing anything. (0:39:58) Al: He is not a good person. (0:40:00) Al: He’s not nice to be around. (0:40:02) Kev: Fine you win now (0:40:02) Al: D. I’m sorry. (0:40:04) Al: Was I trying to convince you? (0:40:05) Al: I don’t think so. (0:40:06) Al: I don’t think I needed to convince you. (0:40:06) Kev: No, that’s what he told you remember, and that’s what he says when you were all right, so that’s probably the easiest one (0:40:13) Al: Demetrius. (0:40:14) Al: Oh yeah, for sure. (0:40:15) Kev: Okay, Demetrius (0:40:17) Al: I’m thinking C for him. (0:40:19) Al: He’s fine. (0:40:20) Al: But again, not particularly, like, interesting. (0:40:20) Kev: Yeah (0:40:23) Kev: Yeah, he’s a scientist right he just sciences it up off-screen yeah, I’m fine for see (0:40:26) Al: Yeah (0:40:28) Al: He’s sciencey, but Maru does the science angle much more interestingly. (0:40:32) Kev: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I agree. Uh, let’s see his mind, ‘cause yeah, he’s just… (0:40:38) Al: Yeah, he’s fine. I don’t, he’s a little bit, he does, I will, the other reason for, I guess, (0:40:44) Al: putting him down to sea is, I feel like he, so he is, I think, canonically autistic, (0:40:52) Kev: Hm, okay. Yeah, I remember, mm-hmm. (0:40:52) Al: and he’s very much using that as an excuse rather than… (0:40:58) Kev: Right. (0:40:59) Al: like an explanation for things and trying to understand, what’s her name? (0:41:02) Kev: Uh-huh. (0:41:04) Kev: Yep. (0:41:10) Al: Yes, Robin, thank you. He doesn’t really try and understand Robin’s point of view, (0:41:14) Al: he just uses his autism as an excuse, and so that’s why I marked him down. (0:41:17) Kev: You know bumping down to D, I forgot he took Robin from me. (0:41:21) Al: All right, fine, yeah, sure, fine. Maybe we do need to add, maybe we do need to add a Clint here, (0:41:23) Kev: I don’t care, I said I juggled, but I’m fine either way. (0:41:28) Al: because he needs to be lower. (0:41:32) Al: Dwarf. (0:41:32) Kev: The D tier with the understanding coin’s actually a tier lower. (0:41:37) Al: All right, so we’ll put him there, and Clint can be at the bottom of deer tier. (0:41:40) Kev: Yeah, there you go. (0:41:43) Al: Dwarf, B tier. So he runs the shop in the cave, in the mines. (0:41:50) Kev: Ah, okay, sure, it’s cool (0:41:54) Al: you also get a little bit of backstory about him when you progress. (0:41:58) Al: progress crow buses line because the dwarfs and the shadow people had a war and they end up fighting and you have to like calm them down and say “look it’s not a war anymore, would you shut up?” (0:42:00) Kev: Mm-hmm (0:42:04) Kev: Oh, I did it (0:42:09) Kev: Whoa, I didn’t know that well, he’s that one guy (0:42:12) Al: Have you not experienced that bit? (0:42:13) Kev: No, I don’t think I have. Well, that’s cool. Like that one guy in Vietnam. I thought the world’s still going on or whatever (0:42:20) Al: Yeah, I think they both know the war is not going on but they still like, it’s like a (0:42:22) Kev: Sick (0:42:25) Al: low level feud they have. (0:42:27) Kev: Okay, good times, all right (0:42:30) Kev: Elliot (0:42:32) Kev: You know what my biggest thing for Elliot or the biggest plus for Elliot is he’s not (0:42:37) Kev: As big as of a d-bag as thought he would be just from how he looks (0:42:40) Al: Yeah, that’s fair. That’s fair (0:42:42) Kev: He’s pretty he likes to write right he’s just over there just poetrying it up or whatever (0:42:49) Kev: It’s fine. He’s not particularly mean or nasty or anything. He’s just kind of his own space doing his own thing (0:42:56) Kev: I haven’t done–I don’t remember too many events with him, to be honest. (0:43:00) Kev: Like, he’s fine. (0:43:00) Al: I think if you go into the Romance things, he is quite doting on you, shall we say. (0:43:07) Kev: Oh, that’s nice. (0:43:09) Kev: You know, I’ll give him an A. There’s a lot of awful people. (0:43:13) Kev: He’s A for being not awful. (0:43:15) Al: Emily S tier. Yeah, we love Emily. Evelyn S tier. Good, good, good. George B tier. He (0:43:18) Kev: Uh, yeah, all right. (0:43:25) Kev: Oh, one thousand percent. (0:43:32) Al: has some positives and he has some negatives. He’s a grumpy old man, but I think he has (0:43:36) Al: the right to be a grumpy old man. And also he can be quite nice in a few situations where (0:43:44) Al: you actually you realize (0:43:45) Al: that there’s reasons why he’s grumpy and oh well obviously he’s old you know (0:43:49) Kev: Yeah, I mean, yeah, but (0:43:49) Al: why he’s old but he comes across initially as just a grumpy old man but (0:43:55) Al: you find many more layers to him and he actually can be quite nice when you get (0:43:55) Kev: Mm-hmm. Yeah (0:43:58) Kev: Yeah, I agree be for that cuz he’s got he’s layered like you say right that’s that’s all (0:44:06) Al: ‘Gill’ he’s one of the adventurers guilds people. I’m gonna go for C purely because (0:44:14) Kev: Okay, that’s why his name is Gil. (0:44:21) Al: there’s nothing really we know about him other than just he is there and yeah I feel like (0:44:24) Kev: Yeah, yeah (0:44:27) Al: I want to know more about him. (0:44:29) Kev: Isn’t either one who go saves you if you fall in the caves (0:44:31) Al: All right no Linus saves you if you if you die in the caves. (0:44:34) Kev: No lines you’re right right sorry, yes, I can’t next up yes next up (0:44:37) Al: Don’t be taking it from from our guy Linus. (0:44:41) Al: Next we have the governor. (0:44:44) Kev: Oh my gosh, I forgot it comes for that one festival, right? (0:44:45) Al: So I think his I think yeah I think that’s his only his only appearance is the festival (0:44:52) Al: and let me tell you he is not very good at telling you that your soup isn’t great right (0:44:57) Kev: Mm-hmm (0:44:57) Al: he doesn’t he doesn’t he doesn’t go there oh no he goes this is disgusting. I think he’s I think (0:45:03) Kev: Mm-hmm sure I didn’t vote for him (0:45:04) Al: you see. (0:45:07) Al: Uh, grandpa. (0:45:11) Kev: Okay, I’ve never made it to grandpa I (0:45:14) Al: What? You’ve never made it past year two. (0:45:16) Kev: Made it to year two. I never know so tell me about grandpa (0:45:19) Al: What? So, right, okay. So, obviously, positive, he gave us the farm. (0:45:27) Al: That is where the positives end. Why does he wait until we are, you know, (0:45:35) Al: nearly going to kill people and are (0:45:36) Al: off his job for us to open this letter, like he tells you, you should only open this (0:45:41) Al: letter at this situation. And it’s like, why could we not have had more years of an enjoyable (0:45:47) Al: life helping people in the valley? And like, I don’t understand that. He’s really judgmental. (0:45:53) Al: He gives you, he doesn’t consider you as a whole person unless you are married and have (0:46:02) Al: children. I just yeah he he’s a little bit (0:46:06) Al: old-fashioned.
