Estrenamos año con nostalgia por partida doble, volvemos a poner al día uno de los primeros programas, en concreto el programa 5, que trataba de adaptaciones con actores reales de videojuegos, en ese momento hubo un pequeño boom como en el que nos encontramos ahora con películas como Tomb Ryder, Silent Hill, Resident Evil y otras. Recordado por ser el primero (y casi el último) de los programas que hicimos bebiendo cubatas en vez de cerveza, los resultados estuvieron acordes con el experimento. En estos tres lustros no penséis que han salido tantas películas con actores reales (de animación las que quieras) y aunque las series recientes dan la sensación, de que la dinámica de que todas estas adaptaciones son una mierda ha acabado, veréis que en la pantalla grande seguimos en la misma tónica. La nueva Lara Croft, Phoenix Wright, Uncharted, Tetris, Grand Turismo, un montón de juegos chinos que no tenemos ni idea, pokemones, need for speed y mil mierdas más. Buen año a todos y esperemos que las nuevas adaptaciones programadas salgan mejor para el programa de dentro de 15 años.

We all have origin stories about how we got into RPGs (several of us shared them almost six years ago in this feature!), so today our panel discusses music origins — what RPGs attuned us to the RPG music scene or otherwise elevated our senses and made us take notice. For some of us, this dates back to the days of the NES, and sometimes our awakening happened during the days of the GameCube. Whenever these songs hail from, they each hold a special place in our hearts.Featuring: Mike Salbato, Wes Iliff, Gio Castillo, Rob White; Edited by Paul DennisWarm Beginnings0:05:01 - Diddle's Organ (Yoko Shimomura) - Legend of Mana0:05:53 - Godot - The Fragrance of Darkness; That is Coffee (Noriyuki Iwadare) - Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Trials & Tribulations16-Bit Vibes0:25:35 - Kids Run Through the City (FFPR ver.)

(0:01:24) Kev: Hello, everyone. (0:01:24) Al: Ah do you know how do you know how to do them? (0:01:25) Kev: Welcome. (0:01:27) Kev: I’m assuming it’s the steel trap. (0:01:29) Kev: You know, the little sensor traps or whatever, but– (0:01:31) Al: It’s not. You’re gonna, you’re gonna, you’re gonna, you’re gonna, you’re gonna (0:01:32) Kev: Oh, well, don’t tell me then. (0:01:33) Kev: I’ll figure it out. (0:01:35) Al: kick yourself when you find out what it is. (0:01:36) Kev: I bet it’s a– (0:01:38) Kev: it’s going to be the baseball bat. (0:01:40) Kev: What if it’s the hammer? (0:01:41) Kev: Oh, it’s a squeaky hammer, isn’t it? (0:01:44) Kev: We’ll see. (0:01:44) Al: you know, yeah. Let me know how you feel once you figure out, because yeah, I was like, (0:01:51) Kev: Okay. (0:01:52) Al: I can’t, I was like, I cannot believe I didn’t think about this. This is, this is ridiculous (0:01:56) Al: that it took me this long to figure out. So yes, first of all, before we get into it, (0:02:01) Al: transcripts are available in the show notes and on the website. Welcome to the first episode (0:02:06) Al: of Dave the Diver Month. This is the month every year where I go on holiday and I can’t (0:02:13) Al: bothered recording and editing while (0:02:14) Al: I’m away. So, we pre-record a bunch of episodes. Last year was fishing month and this year (0:02:23) Al: for some reason we decided to do Dave the Diver month. Wooo! So yeah, we’re doing… (0:02:26) Kev: we’re going deeper it ties into its shark week you know month would have (0:02:31) Kev: parked that net so I actually I don’t I don’t know is that you guys like I don’t (0:02:37) Al: I am aware of Shark Week. We don’t get it, but it is referenced in enough American material (0:02:37) Kev: okay okay yeah okay okay so so just a side note about that I always find (0:02:43) Al: that I am awake. (0:02:44) Al: I am here for what it is. (0:02:51) Kev: amusing. So Shark Week is done by Discovery Channel which (0:02:56) Kev: is, I don’t know what network, but not Disney Network, and this is important. (0:03:02) Al: They were independent, but they merged with Paramount, I think. (0:03:10) Kev: Yeah, is it I don’t know cuz they’re on I (0:03:12) Al: It’s Paramount Discovery. Or is it CBS? It’s one of the two of them. (0:03:14) Kev: Can’t I don’t remember but either way the key thing is it’s not Disney and I bring it up because couple years back (0:03:22) Kev: Disney’s saw all the shark week money they were making presumably or whatever and so they said we’re gonna do our own version (0:03:29) Kev: And we’re gonna call it shark fest except it’s gonna be a whole month and every year they try hyping up shark fest (0:03:36) Kev: but it’s it’s just (0:03:36) Al: I’ve just googled it. Of course, it’s Warner Brothers. It’s Warner Brothers, not Paramount (0:03:37) Kev: It’s clear what they’re doing and it’s just (0:03:40) Kev: Laffable and impediable. Anyways, but welcome to our dive Dave fest. Hello areas (0:03:52) Kev: Yeah, that’s what I thought cuz I’m pretty sure is on max I see the max commercial (0:03:52) Al: or it’s Warner Brothers. I don’t know why you didn’t say that then. You’re like, “Oh, (0:03:56) Al: I thought it, but I didn’t say it.” Just assume I’m wrong. (0:03:58) Kev: Because I can’t remember who owns max isn’t that is Warner Brothers, right? Yeah, cuz they do with the cartoon. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah (0:04:04) Kev: Okay. Well, there you go (0:04:06) Al: The company is now called Warner Brothers Discovery. HBO is part of that as well. (0:04:08) Kev: Now there you go (0:04:11) Kev: Don’t you love how everything’s just merging into (0:04:17) Kev: Conglomerate it’s horrifying blob (0:04:22) Al: So anyway, as I mentioned, this is Dave the Diver Month. (0:04:26) Kev: So yeah, somehow we figured out a whole month. (0:04:29) Al: We’ve gone back to our roots, gone back to our roots, (0:04:32) Al: because I went I’ve been going back and like backfilling. (0:04:36) Al: We changed our show notes to Notion a couple of years ago and I (0:04:41) Al: I didn’t backfill all the old episodes, so it was just like missing. (0:04:45) Al: So you could go back to the the I think the end of 2022 was the first episode (0:04:52) Al: in Notion, so I decided that I needed this list, right? (0:04:57) Al: Because it’s a nice list that I can easily like filter through and see what (0:05:01) Al: episodes people have been on, see that Kevin has been on the second most (0:05:04) Al: episodes of anyone, second only to me. (0:05:06) Kev: here to defend my title. (0:05:11) Al: But it meant that I went back and looked at every single title that we’ve done (0:05:15) Al: because I had to type them all in. (0:05:17) Al: And yeah, my word, the first, the first 10. (0:05:22) Al: 10 episodes, we cover a total of three games. (0:05:27) Kev: Why hopes to think about this in hindsight? (0:05:29) Al: We have the I know we have the introduction (0:05:32) Al: episode and then we have three Stardew episodes. (0:05:35) Al: Granted, one of them is the challenge, which we haven’t done in a while. (0:05:37) Al: We should do a challenge episode again. (0:05:40) Al: And then we did five episodes on trio of towns. (0:05:46) Kev: Well, there’s three towns. So, you know, the five have wow (0:05:52) Al: Introduction to it, one about the story, one about the mechanics, one about the (0:05:57) Al: calendar, we specifically talk, we specifically talked about the calendar (0:06:02) Al: in its own episode, which I think was I think we’re talking about like the (0:06:06) Al: festivals and stuff like that, basically. (0:06:10) Al: And then and then we had a challenge episode. (0:06:12) Al: And in the middle of that, we had this (0:06:14) Al: random episode on factory town because that was the the first time I managed to (0:06:18) Al: get a free code for something and I was like, oh, we must do this now. (0:06:18) Kev: Duh (0:06:23) Al: So, yeah, there we go. (0:06:25) Al: So we’re going back to our roots and having a whole month on one game. (0:06:30) Al: We’ll we’ll see how that goes. (0:06:32) Al: This episode, we’re going to talk about the game as a whole (0:06:35) Al: pre the DLCs. (0:06:37) Al: So the DLCs we will cover in a different (0:06:40) Al: episode and we’re not going to cover the story in too much detail. (0:06:44) Al: We will touch on it in some amount, but like Kevin’s only two chapters in. (0:06:48) Al: I have finished the game, but yeah, we’re gonna leave that to run out. (0:06:52) Al: Another episode. So we’re not going to talk about the two DLCs, the Dredge DLC, the Godzilla (0:06:58) Al: DLC, or the kind of more details and the ending of the story. Yeah. Dave the Diver Month, whoo! (0:07:08) Kev: All right well before that I guess well we’re not we’re not really doing news we don’t do news right on these (0:07:15) Al: We have no news. We have no news because we’re recording this, what, three weeks in advance? (0:07:20) Kev: Yeah (0:07:22) Al: So there’s no news. I mean, there’s probably news, but you’ll hear about it in another (0:07:25) Al: three weeks’ time. I think you know that’s not going to happen. (0:07:25) Kev: Which means haunted chocolatier will have the stealth drop when this episode drops (0:07:37) Al: Concerned Ape doesn’t do stealth drops. He knows the hype is good, which it’s not coming (0:07:43) Al: out this year, but even if it did… (0:07:45) Al: like, he will announce it at least two months beforehand. (0:07:48) Kev: Fair enough, um, a lot of gave the diver, to be honest, I really, really like this game. (0:07:51) Al: But first of all, Kevin, what have you been up to? (0:07:59) Kev: It’s a great game, um, I guess as a side note, I think I said earlier, but I am actually (0:08:08) Kev: a certified scuba diver, I haven’t been in years, but my dad was a scuba diver and as (0:08:10) Al: Oh, that’s fun. (0:08:14) Kev: I grew up by the ocean. (0:08:21) Kev: myself, and so yeah, I appreciate this very much so. But yeah, David the Diver, well welcome (0:08:29) Kev: to that. Aside from that, a lot of my usual Marvel Snap, the Deadpool season has started, (0:08:36) Kev: I’m excited, there’s going to be a ridiculous amount of good cards this season. And yeah, (0:08:40) Al: Yes, the film will be out as well by the time there’s episode- (0:08:43) Kev: Yeah, yeah that is, I am. (0:08:49) Al: I feel like this is the one that’s going to drag a bunch of people back that haven’t (0:08:52) Al: been interested in Marvel films for a while. (0:08:54) Kev: Yeah, I mean, we could do, maybe we will do a whole episode on this, but like with X-Men ‘97 and Deadpool and Wolverine, I feel like, you know, that this is going to be a jectary setter for Marvel. (0:09:11) Kev: Anyways, yeah, I’m excited for that. So yeah, Marvel Snap is good. I don’t know how it is for new players or returning players, but as someone who’s kept up with it, I think it’s in a really good place. (0:09:23) Kev: Um, I sorry. (0:09:24) Kev: Aside from that, uh, a lot of my usual- yeah there’s a lot of my usuals Pokemon Unite. (0:09:32) Kev: Um, and of course, uh, the Mario is life never ends, um, you know, by the time this episode drops, I’m sure other stuff will have been out, but, uh, at the time of recording, I tried Super Mario Kart, the- the OG, for the SNES. (0:09:48) Kev: Uh, that was an interesting experience to see, um, it wasn’t a bad game, like- (0:09:56) Kev: Harvest Moon was SNES, wasn’t it? Like the original Harvest Moon was SNES? Yeah, it was much better than the original Harvest Moon. (0:09:58) Al: - Yeah, yeah it was. (0:10:02) Kev: Um, but, uh, but yeah, that was fun, and, uh, and hey, most importantly over at Rainbow Road Radio, we have hit one year, yay! (0:10:12) Al: So, if you haven’t listened to that podcast yet, go listen to it. They did a good, they (0:10:12) Kev: Uh, yo, it’s a little- (0:10:17) Al: did a good episode with Nadia on the, what’s it called? Mario Kart. That one was called (0:10:26) Al: Super Mario Kart, right? Or was it just Mario Kart? That was Super Mario Kart. Everything (0:10:26) Kev: Yeah, that was called. It was a Super Mario Kart, yeah. (0:10:30) Al: was super because it was on the SNES. The game by Advance, everything was advanced. (0:10:32) Kev: Yeah, that’s correct. Just like the DS had DS abbreviations or name. (0:10:41) Kev: Yeah, yeah, that’s a good one. (0:10:45) Kev: I need that back. Give us a good one for Switch 2. (0:10:48) Kev: Oh, I didn’t even know. (0:10:48) Al: Well this is this is why I don’t think they’ll go for super or advanced like some people (0:10:54) Al: are suggesting. I think they’ll want to have a unique one so that you can clearly, you (0:10:59) Al: know, make a differentiation between them. And I definitely do not think it’s going to (0:11:02) Kev: yeah (0:11:04) Al: be two. I just that’s I don’t think it’s going to be. (0:11:07) Kev: well of course not they’ve the only one they ever used was 64 and that was (0:11:11) Kev: because of the technical 64 (0:11:14) Al: Well, exactly. There’s always a reason why they’re doing them, and they always try and (0:11:14) Kev: right (0:11:17) Al: make it a unique thing, right? Like, there’s not been one. No, but that was unique as well. (0:11:18) Kev: yeah (0:11:20) Kev: except we you (0:11:24) Al: Right? Because, like, yes, sometimes they take, like, sometimes it’s based on a previous (0:11:30) Al: one, so they take the name and then they add something to it. But the thing they add to (0:11:34) Al: it is always new. You’ve got the 3DS, you’ve got the DSi, you’ve got the Wii U, you’ve (0:11:39) Al: got the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. They all add a different thing to it. They’ve (0:11:40) Kev: OK. OK, yeah, you’re right. (0:11:44) Al: never duplicated that. Game Boy Advance. Oh yeah, I’m not saying the game’s… I’m not (0:11:48) Kev: I make I yeah, I make the jokes about the bad names, but (0:11:53) Kev: hopefully it’ll be better than new switch. (0:11:56) Al: saying the games are good. The names are good, for the record. But they are unique. People (0:11:57) Kev: Yes, yeah, but they are different. (0:12:01) Kev: You’re right, they don’t reuse things (0:12:04) Kev: as much as Nintendo loves to call back their games, (0:12:06) Kev: I guess with their systems, they really don’t call back, do they? (0:12:08) Kev: - Nah. (0:12:09) Kev: Um, no. (0:12:10) Kev: Yeah, but, uh, yeah, so anyways, yeah, go check that it go ahead. (0:12:14) Al: I think the only Nintendo thing that will be out between our recording and the episode coming out (0:12:22) Al: is the World Championships game. That’s the only thing coming out in July or August. (0:12:26) Kev: I think I mentioned this on the cycle we chatted, but you remember like two years ago we talked (0:12:36) Kev: about one of the directs and said it felt like one of the final directs for the switch. (0:12:38) Al: I think it was two years ago that we said that classic (0:12:43) Kev: We still got another year, at least, to ring out of this bad boy. (0:12:49) Kev: Good times. (0:12:50) Kev: So yeah, go check out Rainbow Road Radio. (0:12:58) Al: Yeah, I mean, games-wise, I’m not going to really talk about it right, because it’s all the same (0:13:02) Al: stuff I’ve been talking for. Well, as I’m recording, I’ve said the same stuff for like three episodes (0:13:08) Al: long, and I’m probably going to do another two episodes where I’ve not really played anything (0:13:12) Al: new, because I’ve been playing the same three games for the podcast. I feel like I’ve been (0:13:17) Al: playing Day of the Diver now for about a month, which is a good thing for the record. We’ll get (0:13:22) Kev: Yep, not forcibly not at gunpoint (0:13:23) Al: to that. But spoiler alert, this is a good game. Absolutely not. I’m so glad. (0:13:28) Al: This game was good because can you imagine us covering four episodes on a game that none of us (0:13:33) Al: liked? Oh boy. But there is one thing that I just finished that probably this is the best episode to (0:13:35) Kev: Hey, I mean Steve’s managed to get how many years out of (0:13:46) Al: talk on because I’ve got you Kevin and that is the Gotham Knights TV show. So I bet you haven’t (0:13:50) Kev: I am not but I’m aware how it was the show Batman show before Batman but then (0:13:54) Al: watch this have you? (0:13:58) Al: So let me say listeners, if you don’t want spoilers for the Gotham Knights TV show, (0:14:01) Kev: said okay but we’re gonna add Batman though anyway (0:14:12) Al: which was a CW/DC show that aired two years ago or something and cancelled after one season, (0:14:20) Al: then skip to the main topic, because this will be all I’m talking about for the rest of this (0:14:26) Al: section but I would. (0:14:28) Al: I will probably spoil some things because I don’t think you can truly have a conversation (0:14:32) Al: about this without spoiling some ridiculous things about this show. (0:14:36) Al: So the premise of this show is Batman is murdered and people there are. (0:14:43) Kev: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, Batman’s Murder? Wait, what show is this? This isn’t the pre-Batman show? (0:14:49) Al: This is not pre Batman, no, this is post Batman. (0:14:52) Kev: What, what’s it called again? One more time? (0:14:54) Al: Gotham Knights. (0:14:55) Kev: Oh, Gotham Knights! I thought you said Gotham, ‘cause there’s a show called… (0:14:58) Al: No, not Gotham. Gotham was, Gotham was good. Yeah, no, that was good. This was, (0:15:01) Kev: Okay. (0:15:02) Al: that was like four seasons long or something like that. Yeah, with a K. So the Knights have got that, (0:15:04) Kev: Okay, wait, is this Gotham Knights with a K or an okay? (0:15:09) Kev: Okay. (0:15:12) Al: you know, like the, you’re the classic, everybody knows who the Gotham Knights are, (0:15:16) Al: and none of them are in this show. So, but yeah, so this is, well, do you want me not to talk about (0:15:20) Kev: Okay, so Batman’s murdered. Okay, I’ve missed this completely. (0:15:24) Kev: Okay. (0:15:27) Kev: No, no, I want to know. I don’t know when I’ll check it out. (0:15:28) Al: it then? Are you, do you care about what? No, that’s fine. So Batman is, Batman is murdered, (0:15:30) Kev: I’m good for all the spoilers. To do tell. (0:15:38) Al: and four teenagers are framed for his murder, and those teenagers include Batman’s adopted son. (0:15:47) Al: Now, this is an adopted son that doesn’t exist in the comics. (0:15:50) Kev: I’ll say I’m looking at the Wikipedia and hit the sun’s name is not blue which means there’s no article (0:15:58) Al: Yeah, yeah. So he doesn’t, this is the only place that he exists in anything, (0:16:04) Al: because basically they didn’t have the rights to any existing Robin, so they decided not to do a (0:16:10) Al: Robin. And I will say the interesting thing about that is that he is, he doesn’t know that Bruce (0:16:15) Al: Wayne is Batman, and he’s never trained up as a Robin. So that is a little bit different and (0:16:20) Al: interesting that they do, but just an actual son, he’s adopted because, well, it turns out for, (0:16:21) Kev: So just an actual son, not a child laborer. (0:16:28) Al: spoilers here, it turns out that Batman killed his parents, so that’s why he was adopted by him. (0:16:32) Kev: Oh, what? What? (0:16:34) Al: But another, another one of the teenagers that is framed for killing Batman is the daughter of the (0:16:42) Al: Joker, except, except in the, in the last episode, we find out that she’s not actually the daughter (0:16:43) Kev: I feel like this should be a greenhouse, I have so many questions! (0:16:56) Al: of the Joker. (0:16:58) Al: She’s actually the daughter of Harvey Dent, because Harvey Dent has a disassociative identity (0:17:00) Kev: Okay. (0:17:02) Kev: Help! (0:17:02) Kev: sadly HOOO! (0:17:08) Al: disorder, and his other identity was the one that was in a relationship with Duella, his (0:17:17) Al: character’s mother, and so he didn’t know that she existed because he obviously then (0:17:22) Al: goes back to his other personality and has no idea that this has happened. (0:17:28) Al: Due characters are random people, they’re just kind of like low-level criminal brother (0:17:35) Al: and sister, and then they’re also randomly throwing a girl who happens to be a Robin, (0:17:43) Al: and she’s actually Batman sidekick, but she kind of forced her way into the role, like (0:17:49) Al: he didn’t want her sort of thing, so that is vaguely interesting, but yeah, this follows (0:17:54) Al: the four of them and one of (0:17:58) Al: Turner, whose Bruce Wayne’s adopted son, find them trying to out the real killers, who is (0:18:05) Al: the Court of Owls. For those who don’t know, they’re like a standard secretive society (0:18:12) Al: that exists in the DC Comics. Exactly. And Harvey Dent is a district attorney. Is that (0:18:12) Kev: Yup, you’re Illuminati. (0:18:23) Al: the term. Running to be mayor. (0:18:28) Al: And this is like pre him being Two-Face, and he like becomes Two-Face in the last (0:18:32) Kev: Okay. (0:18:36) Al: five seconds of the show sort of thing. Right before, exactly right before they’re cancelled. (0:18:38) Kev: Of course, right before they’re cancelled. Good times. Good times! (0:18:44) Al: So this, I’m not gonna say this show is bad because like it’s, I actually think that as a show, (0:18:51) Al: it’s not bad. I think it was actually vaguely enjoyable. Like if you have very limited time (0:18:58) Al: to watch TV, there are probably plenty of things that are better that you would want to watch, but (0:19:03) Al: I did enjoy it. I do not know why on earth this is a DC show. The only characters that exist are (0:19:13) Al: Harvey Dent and well, Bruce Wayne, but he’s dead, right? Like he only exists to create the story. (0:19:14) Kev: Mm hmm. Yeah. (0:19:22) Al: And basically everybody else is a made up character. They’ve got the court of owls, (0:19:26) Kev: I’m I’m I’m so like dwella or dwella whatever her name is that she’s (0:19:26) Al: but like. (0:19:28) Al: Oh, is she? (0:19:31) Kev: apparently an existing character and and the Harper the bluebird she goes by (0:19:37) Kev: bluebird in the comic and other apparently existing characters and (0:19:40) Al: OK, it just like I don’t. (0:19:40) Kev: cullenra I don’t know what obscure though they are very obscure I don’t I (0:19:44) Al: They’re very obscure and it’s not really like any of that affects the story, right? (0:19:44) Kev: don’t know them (0:19:49) Al: They could do they could absolutely have and I think it actually would have been (0:19:52) Al: a more enjoyable thing if it wasn’t so tied into the DC universe and it was just like (0:19:58) Al: like as a teen a teen mystery kind of crime show, I think it would actually be quite enjoyable, (0:20:00) Kev: The mystery show mm-hmm (0:20:06) Kev: Sure (0:20:09) Al: but then it then oh look it’s Batman, you know, and it’s like just feels a bit weird, (0:20:15) Al: but yeah, it was it was it was fine. Yeah. (0:20:15) Kev: Okay (0:20:21) Kev: Okay, that’s that this is fascinating that’s a shame it got canceled because this is this is a wild description everything you said (0:20:30) Al: Yeah, I’m very intrigued as to where they were planning on taking it. There’s a whole (0:20:34) Al: but the standard like here are 10 things that happen in the last episode that are all setting (0:20:40) Al: up the second series. And yeah, I’m intrigued as to where they were going with that. (0:20:46) Kev: Yeah, I mean yeah, there’s there’s a lot to unpack there. Um, well (0:20:51) Al: I also feel like it would have been better fully self-contained like if they hadn’t shoved (0:20:55) Al: all that stuff in at the end, like they didn’t have Harvey Dent turning into Two-Face. (0:21:00) Al: And they didn’t have Turner Hayes being kidnapped and everybody thinking he was murdered and taken (0:21:06) Al: to, I think it was Raj Al Ghul at the end, or maybe it was someone else. He said that he (0:21:13) Al: trained Batman, so I’m assuming he’s meant to be Raj Al Ghul, but they don’t actually say for certain, (0:21:18) Al: so I’m not sure. But it’s all there. (0:21:21) Kev: Oh, good times, good times (laughs) (0:21:28) Al: So, yeah, it was it was a thing. And that was what so I’ve now almost caught up with (0:21:33) Al: the DC shows. I have season three of Stargirl to watch. And then I think that’s the live (0:21:38) Al: action that is. Obviously, I’ve got a lot of animated stuff still to go. But that’ll (0:21:42) Al: be me caught up with the live action DC shows. I have plumbed every, every possible corner (0:21:50) Al: of the shows to figure out what is good and what is not. And there we go. And I’m not (0:21:58) Al: with that information. (0:22:00) Kev: Oh, you’re- you’re- you’re- I think you’re a stronger man than me to going through all this. This is wild. Wild stuff. (0:22:06) Al: This is this is not the worst DC show I’ve seen by far, like. (0:22:10) Kev: Oh, I’m sure. Yeah, no, it- (0:22:12) Kev: No, I’m just- I’m just saying, this- you’re going to all the corners, like, that’s- that’s a lot. But yeah, no, I’m sure there’s much, much worse, um, I can’t think of any, but I know. laughs (0:22:22) Al: So now I get to, now I get to treat myself by going back and watching the good animated (0:22:26) Kev: Oh, yeah. Yeah. Um, dang, that’s- that’s fascinating. (0:22:27) Al: shows now, so. There is that. Have you been watching the new Superman one? (0:22:32) Kev: Uh, no, but I watch- well, okay, I’ve not watched a show, but I’ve watched a lot of it, uh, through- where? Let’s say that. laughs (0:22:33) Al: Oh (0:22:42) Kev: Um, it’s- it- it’s- it’s fascinating. They- like, I mean, first of all, they’re updating all the characters to give ’em a little more flavor, like, you know, everyone’s not white anymore. (0:22:44) Al: It’s really good, I’m really enjoying it. (0:22:52) Al: Yeah (0:22:54) Kev: Um. laughs (0:22:57) Al: What (0:22:59) Al: They did that in they did that in the the arrow verse as well like (0:23:03) Al: Jimmy Jimmy was was instead of like a small white (0:23:08) Kev: Yeah, yeah (0:23:08) Al: Wimpy guy. He was a big black buff dude (0:23:12) Kev: Yeah, that’s awesome, that’s dope (0:23:14) Al: Yeah, I like how different you know just completely different (0:23:17) Kev: Yeah, yeah, I like that. Um, yeah (0:23:20) Al: He was he was not a traditional narrative you just (0:23:22) Al: big guy who liked taking photos they turn it they turn him into a superhero as well by the end of it (0:23:24) Kev: Yeah, oh that’s that’s great I love that cuz (0:23:29) Kev: Of course because yeah (0:23:31) Al: not with powers but like he’s he’s literally just uh he he puts on a suit and he goes and beats (0:23:36) Al: people up with a shield yeah yeah this is what I love the most about comic book stories right (0:23:38) Kev: I mean, hey, Batman, right, like… (0:23:41) Kev: Um… (0:23:42) Kev: But yeah, no, like, Jimmy Olsen’s the most nothing ever, so you can turn him into whatever, and it’s fine. (0:23:53) Al: what you can do is you can you you have like a basis to build on and then you can do different (0:23:59) Al: things with them and like I really love without spoilers I really love what they’re doing with (0:24:03) Al: like kara um in this in this season it’s it’s really different and yeah so I i just I love when (0:24:11) Al: they take existing characters and say but what if we do it differently (0:24:14) Kev: Yeah, yeah, I like I like her a lot from the the new show. I’ve seen her lots lots of cool moments and her character and arc and stuffs (0:24:25) Kev: Yeah, and boy do they like their anime cuz there’s a lot anime references abound in that one (0:24:32) Kev: Yeah, good stuff (0:24:34) Kev: Yeah, yeah, um (0:24:36) Al: And we got the new Batman one coming as well (0:24:38) Kev: There’s another Batman oh my gosh, I haven’t kept up with this I’m looking (0:24:42) Al: No, but this is this this one looks good this one looks good is being touted as the spiritual successor to the Batman the animated series (0:24:49) Kev: Ohh, don’t sell yourself like that! (0:24:52) Kev: Umm, that’s… that’s our… that’s just setting yourself up to fail. (0:24:57) Kev: Um, that’s… here’s the thing though, like, a lot of the… (0:25:01) Kev: Batman shows I think are pretty good, or the cart to animated ones. (0:25:04) Kev: Regardless of what they look like, or what they are. (0:25:08) Kev: Um, but yeah, uh… (0:25:11) Kev: Oh, shoot! Oh, it’s Bruce Timm! Okay, maybe it is a bit better than… (0:25:14) Kev: Bruce Timm’s actually on it. (0:25:16) Al: …Caped Crusader, that sort of thing. (0:25:16) Kev: Yeah. Oh, okay, maybe. (0:25:19) Kev: Oh, I didn’t know Bruce Jim was on it, nevermind. Maybe, maybe. (0:25:22) Kev: We’ll give it a shot. (0:25:24) Al: And there’s the new Cape Man series coming soon as well. (0:25:26) Kev: Oh my gosh, I saw that. (0:25:30) Kev: One thing I saw on Twitter is a tweet that said that how Kipeman got a series before Wonder Woman did. (0:25:36) Al: I love I presume you’ve seen the Harley Quinn series. (0:25:37) Kev: Good times. (0:25:40) Kev: I’ve seen, again, bits and parts of it. Yeah. (0:25:44) Al: I just it’s really good and I love the idea of having a spinoff Kite Man series is just (0:25:50) Al: perfectly in character for that whole show. Like of course, of course that’s the first (0:25:52) Kev: The tone yeah (0:25:57) Al: spinoff they would do from that. Like why wouldn’t they? Like it would just the most (0:25:57) Kev: Yeah (0:26:00) Al: ridiculous idea. (0:26:01) Kev: Yeah, absolutely (0:26:05) Kev: So the Aquaman do you see wasn’t that (0:26:06) Al: I am half expecting them to announce a third DLC for this game, you know just after we (0:26:14) Kev: I abs- right? (0:26:16) Al: finish the episodes. (0:26:18) Kev: I mean, yeah, like, absolutely cuz (0:26:22) Kev: Reg made sense (0:26:25) Kev: Godzilla was a huge get, holy moly, um, and I- I expect (0:26:34) Al: They did announce a new collaboration, but it’s not in their game. It’s their game in (0:26:40) Al: something else. Let me find what it was. Because they announced it like three days ago as we’re (0:26:45) Al: recording, and Kelly was like, “Oh, there’s a new DLC!” and we looked at it and went, (0:26:49) Al: “No, wait, that’s not a DLC in Dave the Diver. Nikkei? N-I-K-K-E? Goddess of victory?” (0:26:51) Kev: Can we get… (0:26:54) Kev: Nie-J! Wait, Jason’s like, “What?! What?!” (0:26:58) Al: Okay, so they have, and I’m not kidding, this is not a joke, they have recreated (0:27:04) Al: the Dave the Diver game inside the Nikkei game. (0:27:10) Kev: Is that how it works because I was very good. Okay. Oh my god. Okay. Are you for new kid at all? (0:27:18) Kev: Okay, so I am somewhat familiar Nick gave the premise of I’ve never put I haven’t played it myself but um (0:27:24) Kev: So it is a gotcha shooter. I guess I’m like over-the-shoulder third-person like XCOM style shooter (0:27:32) Kev: It’s a mobile game. I believe I believe it’s actually quite good for when I hear the gameplay is actually quite good. Um, (0:27:38) Kev: but it (0:27:40) Kev: It okay, so it’s a gotcha game, and of course you’re pulling your different shooters and whatnot, but (0:27:47) Kev: Here’s here’s the kicker. Here’s the sauce (0:27:52) Kev: The characters are all anime girls, and you know what comes with that (0:27:56) Al: Yeah, I can tell from the images that I’m seeing on the Dave the Diver collaboration. (0:28:00) Kev: Yeah, yeah, so to hear Dave the diver go to that was wild (0:28:09) Al: So what it seems to be is it’s a minigame within Nikkei, but it’s like it just looks (0:28:14) Al: like the entire Dave the Diver game, right, like you see them, so some of the characters (0:28:20) Al: from Nikkei get transported into Dave the Diver and they’re like in like wetsuits and (0:28:26) Al: got their harpoon guns and stuff. And then you actually see them like playing the game, (0:28:33) Al: like going around and harpooning fish and picking up items and then they go to the sushi (0:28:38) Al: bar and it looks like they’ve just recreated the game. Let me show you, let me send you (0:28:41) Kev: I’m once looking at the pictures and (0:28:43) Al: this link. You need to watch this video. It’s just, it’s wild. There’s a video on the link (0:28:47) Kev: AHHH! This is WAAH! (0:28:52) Al: that I sent you, it literally just looks like the game. Which is why we initially (0:28:56) Al: thought it was a DLC for a Day of the Diver because it looks so much like it. (0:29:06) Kev: But oh my gosh, that’s why I had no idea. I didn’t hear this about this one at all. I love it though (0:29:13) Kev: Um, and yeah, I love it there. Do you have your anime girls and there’s dave? Um, just just david (0:29:19) Kev: Oh dave. I love dave man (0:29:23) Kev: Um (0:29:24) Kev: I’m pulling out the video one second. Let’s take a second (0:29:27) Kev: um (0:29:28) Kev: man that (0:29:30) Kev: my guess (0:29:31) Kev: before since nike which (0:29:33) Kev: took me completely off by surprise I was going to (0:29:36) Kev: say power wash simulator and have a david diver dlc and power washing the boat or the (0:29:42) Al: Yeah! (0:29:46) Kev: sushi bar or something, it could absolutely work, um, yeah that’s my uh (0:29:52) Al: That’s fine, we’ll get Cody to cover that one then, because they’ve completely finished the Powerwash simulation. (0:29:58) Kev: I need to get into that Powerwash Swiss. (0:30:01) Kev: Oh my god, I’m watching the video now. (0:30:03) Kev: Oh, there he is! (0:30:04) Kev: Oh my god! (0:30:05) Kev: What did we want? (0:30:07) Kev: There’s Dave. (0:30:08) Kev: Oh, there’s, they’re transforming. (0:30:11) Kev: They got warped into the boat. (0:30:12) Kev: Oh my god, wow, even the UI and stuff, it is just recreated! (0:30:16) Al: Yeah, what did I tell you? (0:30:18) Kev: Wow! (0:30:20) Kev: That is just Dave the Diver in… (0:30:22) Kev: Wow, man, that’s a Mark of… (0:30:26) Kev: Well the fish look this- (0:30:29) Al: uh-huh they’ve even got like the different weapons as well (0:30:30) Kev: They, uh… (0:30:33) Kev: That’s what it is (0:30:36) Kev: Wait look like they have the Boncho scenes? (0:30:39) Kev: They just have them in there. They just actually just put it in there. They’re running the restaurant. Oh my (0:30:45) Kev: Wow, Nikkei was rich enough to just add the entire game in there. Okay. Oh, there it is (0:30:51) Kev: There is the Nikkei costumes I was looking for (0:30:55) Kev: But that’s wild it’s just (0:30:58) Al: Yeah, what’s the thing? Can you imagine another game just adding a game into their game as (0:31:04) Kev: I mean, I mean port night does it all the time, but like that’s what I’m saying. You got to be (0:31:04) Al: a minigame? Yeah, sure, but they’re one of the biggest game of all time. This is a big (0:31:10) Kev: Yeah, I know you got to be rich enough to do that and well, I guess Niki (0:31:15) Kev: Shot you this might surprise you up, but Niki does one actually being a (0:31:21) Kev: Being a shooter and gotcha game and anime here. So yeah. All right. They could probably (0:31:23) Al: No. (0:31:28) Al: People like the anime girls with big guns, really? (0:31:33) Kev: Oh, okay. (0:31:34) Al: OK, so Dave the Diver, half an hour in, (0:31:35) Kev: Yes, let’s- (0:31:37) Kev: What is Dave the Diver? Our listener’s pets. (0:31:40) Al: and we’re finally talking about the game. (0:31:42) Al: Yes, so, I guess, quick intro to the game, (0:31:44) Al: in case anybody doesn’t know. (0:31:46) Al: The idea is it is a diving fishing game. (0:31:50) Al: So you dive into the water and you catch fish through a variety of means and you use those fish to then make sushi in the sushi restaurant that you don’t own but you essentially run and therefore essentially get all the profits even though you don’t own it and the owner is the chef. (0:32:14) Al: It’s all a bit weird. Confusing. But that’s essentially… (0:32:16) Kev: I thought the owner was Cobra. Not the owner’s Cobra, isn’t it? (0:32:21) Kev: No, I’m pretty sure Bunch is just the head chef. Yeah, no, I’m pretty sure Cobra is the owner. So (0:32:21) Al: Is Bancho not owned it? (0:32:22) Al: It’s been so long since I’ve… (0:32:24) Al: Hmm. (0:32:26) Kev: Here, let me take it back (0:32:29) Kev: even further let me (0:32:31) Al: It’s financed by Cobra, financed by Cobra and run by Bancho. (0:32:32) Kev: Is it okay, maybe. Well, he’s making money off of it. There you go. Well poor Dave (0:32:39) Al: But you seem to get all of the profit profits from it. (0:32:41) Kev: Of course poor Dave needs to be assertive more assertive because uh (0:32:46) Kev: He was literally on vacation when the guy Cobra calls him up and just tells him hey (0:32:50) Kev: You’re gonna go dive fishing now and run the restaurant and do everything else and he just always agrees (0:32:51) Al: Yeah. (0:33:00) Al: So, that’s a quick intro to the game. (0:33:03) Al: Give us your very quick what you feel about the game before we get into the details. (0:33:08) Kev: Okay, um, the games excellently. What can I say right like the so it’s it’s pixel art and and it’s fine pixel art (0:33:17) Kev: the (0:33:18) Al: It’s very detailed pixel art. (0:33:19) Kev: Yeah, it is. Um, it’s (0:33:23) Kev: the gameplay is fun in catching the fish and and whatnot the (0:33:29) Kev: The upgrades are all satisfying and and and the progression feels natural and in goes well (0:33:38) Kev: like (0:33:40) Kev: You know all the mechanical stuff like it’s great when the game knocks out of the park (0:33:44) Kev: But I think always more important for me is the feel or the aesthetic the vibes whatever you want to call it (0:33:50) Kev: And I think they do great. It’s a very comical game (0:33:53) Kev: The writing is is entertaining (0:33:57) Kev: Again the character Dave I love him a lot and (0:34:00) Kev: The other part that they get right is the underwater portion (0:34:05) Kev: Fish are all accurately represented they’re all (0:34:08) Kev: well that’s majority of them are real life fish (0:34:12) Kev: and you can learn about them and then (0:34:14) Al: Yeah. I wouldn’t say vast majority, but you’ve not got to that point. But yeah, (0:34:18) Al: majority. I’ll go with majority. (0:34:19) Kev: let’s say the majority yes (0:34:22) Kev: uh… and then you get to the you know you go the whole gamut of the sea the (0:34:27) Kev: tropical fish down to (0:34:30) Kev: horrifying deaths with the monstrosities the the real life monstrosities and the (0:34:34) Kev: fake monstrosities down there (0:34:38) Kev: all like just thumbs up everywhere like I don’t have any (0:34:41) Kev: big complaints I can’t go about the top my head (0:34:44) Kev: uh… what about you out what do you (0:34:47) Al: Yeah, I’m mostly on the same page as you. It’s super fun. The two main things being (0:34:54) Al: the fishing and the sushi restaurant, they are good fun. You’re absolutely right. It (0:34:59) Al: doesn’t take itself seriously because I’m literally catching fish by swimming through (0:35:05) Al: and stabbing them. Sure, you’ve got your harpoon, and that’s a standard way to fish, but you’ve (0:35:12) Al: also got literally guns and a knife, and you can just walk up to a shark and… (0:35:17) Al: You can swim up to a shark and hit it with a baseball bat. Or there’s also if you encountered (0:35:22) Kev: - Yep, or the toy hammer. (0:35:27) Al: the baseball itself, you can get baseball. You can throw baseballs at sharks. They actually (0:35:29) Kev: I haven’t found the baseball. (0:35:34) Al: do a lot of damage, but yeah. It definitely doesn’t take it seriously, and it’s really (0:35:39) Al: fun, but it tries to do kind of vague realism with the fish, and it’s… (0:35:48) Al: It’s not super easy. There is some challenge to it, especially later on in the game, and (0:35:51) Kev: - Yeah, I can imagine. (0:35:54) Kev: - Mm-hmm. (0:35:54) Al: especially catching some of the fish with some of the boss battles and stuff like that. (0:36:01) Al: But yeah, no, super fun, super silly. Definitely my humour. I really enjoyed it overall. I (0:36:07) Al: do have a few complaints, but they’re mostly around the fact that there are about 10 random (0:36:15) Al: many games that exist in the game. (0:36:17) Al: There’s a point where you’re like ‘here’s an ice pick’ and you have to use the ice (0:36:26) Kev: That’s why… (0:36:36) Al: pick to pick through a sheet of ice, and that happens once. Ever. And if you fail it, you (0:36:40) Kev: Mm-hmm (0:36:43) Al: just try it again. Right? Like, a lot of these (0:36:44) Kev: Mm-hmm (0:36:47) Al: minigames feel a bit like WarioWare to me, when it’s like, right, you have 10 seconds (0:36:49) Kev: Hmm (0:36:52) Al: to figure out what you’re doing, otherwise you’ve failed and you have to try again. (0:36:56) Al: And it just feels like, what was the point in that? Like, these random, like, they aren’t (0:37:01) Al: part of the core, they’re completely different type of gameplay to everything else in the (0:37:05) Al: game. And I just, it’s really weird. The other thing is, have you done any of the VIP, the (0:37:14) Al: new items. (0:37:18) Al: So like random people will turn up to your sushi restaurant and they’ll say, (0:37:21) Al: “Hey, I want this specific thing.” And you have to go and gather the ingredients for (0:37:22) Kev: Yeah, yeah. (0:37:26) Al: that specific thing, and then two days later you take them to the sushi restaurant, (0:37:31) Al: Banjo will cook them sushi, and then you get success and you win some money. (0:37:34) Kev: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, you unlock things that way. A lot of things that way. (0:37:39) Al: You do, but I did about five or six of them, and then randomly they started (0:37:47) Al: extra minigames to make Banjo cook them the sushi. You start cooking it yourself. (0:37:50) Kev: What? (0:37:52) Kev: I haven’t gotten there wha- (0:37:53) Al: It’s actually Banjo, but you’re controlling Banjo to do that. (0:37:57) Al: And I have no idea why, like the first five or six, it’s just gather the ingredients, (0:38:00) Al: you see a cut scene, the person eats it, they’re like, “Wow, it’s amazing.” (0:38:04) Al: And then you’ve unlocked a new menu item. What’s the recipe? There’s one I’m looking for. (0:38:10) Al: Recipe is the word I’m looking for. You unlock a new recipe, you win some money, (0:38:14) Al: you get some thumbs up on your cookstart app. (0:38:17) Al: Great, fantastic. But then, like, I’ve done two. Two out of the seven I’ve done, (0:38:23) Al: they make you do six different minigames to cook the sushi. And I’m like, one, why? (0:38:30) Al: Right? Like, I just don’t know why. Two, why is this a change? Why were they all not like this? (0:38:37) Al: This is really random, the change up here. (0:38:38) Kev: that is wild that is very random because I’ve been playing for a while and haven’t encountered (0:38:44) Kev: that yet and that comes out of nowhere six that’s wild six out of seven right (0:38:46) Al: I didn’t get that till chapter six. I don’t know why they do that. Yes. Yeah. I don’t (0:38:57) Al: know why. I’ve got another one due in two days, and I don’t know whether that’s going (0:39:01) Al: to have minigames or not, but it just is really weird because I was like, oh, I was fully (0:39:06) Al: just expecting the cutscene and the person to like, wow, that’s amazing. And suddenly (0:39:11) Al: it was showing me these random WarioWare minigames. It’s so weird. (0:39:15) Kev: That is that is wild (0:39:16) Al: So that would that would be my biggest issue with the game. And it’s not a huge issue, (0:39:22) Kev: Soar yeah (0:39:25) Al: right? Because it’s not something that happens very often. None of them are really difficult. (0:39:28) Al: And if you fail them, I think other than the VIP menu items, other than that, I think you (0:39:33) Al: just retry them. But it just feels like this is not anything like the core gameplay. It’s (0:39:34) Kev: Yeah, yeah. (0:39:39) Kev: Yeah, it sounds jarring. (0:39:40) Al: and it is very jarring. You’re like, I’m, I’m, you know, swimming. (0:39:46) Al: I’m going around killing some fish. I’m doing some puzzles. I’m getting round and then suddenly (0:39:51) Al: it’s like, oh, no, you need to do this Ace Pick minigame. Or no, you need to do this. (0:39:56) Al: The drill, you did the drill one, I presume to get into the I think that’s quite early (0:39:58) Kev: Yeah, I forgot about the drill. Yeah (0:40:01) Al: on in. That’s the sort of thing I’m talking about. (0:40:05) Kev: Well, yeah, you know what that’s a good point like I yeah, yeah, I thought about the drill like (0:40:11) Al: You use that drill, you use that drill twice. (0:40:13) Kev: Yeah, you used to get in somewhere and it feels like you could use it somewhere else like (0:40:15) Al: In the whole game, twice. (0:40:19) Al: And never again, twice, ever. (0:40:22) Kev: That is if I all right, here’s my copium like if I were to try to make any sense out of this like they’re playing (0:40:29) Kev: Oh, obviously they’re still working on the game, right? We’re still getting updates and stuff. So, you know, maybe we’ll get a big (0:40:36) Kev: Postgame DLC even more of it. I don’t know but you’re right. Like (0:40:40) Kev: It is wild to think about I don’t think so either, but I’m just spitballing here (0:40:41) Al: I’d be very surprised if they ever come back to any of these again. It’s just this is what (0:40:54) Al: it is and it felt like they just had an idea for these and decided to put them in but they (0:40:58) Al: didn’t really want to add them in very much. It’s jarring. It’s a bit odd. It conflicts (0:41:09) Al: so much with the great gameplay that the brand- (0:41:11) Al: rest of the game is. And every time I encountered when I was just like, “Oh, not again.” I’d spend the one minute to do it, and then I’d be like, “Thank goodness that’s over, and I know they’ll never have to do that one again.” (0:41:15) Kev: Yeah. (0:41:19) Kev: Mm-hmm. (0:41:22) Kev: Mm. (0:41:23) Al: Then you move on and you continue playing the game that you’re actually enjoying. (0:41:26) Kev: Yeah, yeah, I g- huh. (0:41:29) Kev: That is so odd, like, I just wonder if they were trying to break up the, like, the pacing, or, or didn’t want the game to feel too monotonous, because, like, how could I put this? (0:41:42) Al: It doesn’t stop that, though, because it’s like 10 different things that only take 30 (0:41:44) Kev: Yeah. (0:41:46) Kev: Yeah. (0:41:47) Kev: Yeah, I don’t know. (0:41:47) Al: seconds each. (0:41:49) Al: It doesn’t really do that. (0:41:49) Kev: I’m, I’m baffled. (0:41:51) Kev: I’m just trying to figure it out, but I, I’m just as puzzled as you are. (0:41:54) Al: Anyway, that’s my main complaint. (0:42:00) Al: It’s not a huge one, and it’s just like I’m now done with those so I don’t have to worry (0:42:04) Al: about them again. (0:42:05) Al: You know, if I want to continue playing, I can finish doing all the collection and stuff (0:42:09) Al: like that and finish all that which is always fun. (0:42:12) Al: Yeah, it’s just a bit weird. Should we talk about some of the actual mechanics then? (0:42:16) Kev: All right, yeah, yeah, okay, so (0:42:17) Al: Get into the good stuff. Talk to us about diving. (0:42:19) Kev: Yes, let’s start with that right cuz that’s that’s the name of the game and it would say it’s the primary mechanic (0:42:27) Kev: Okay, so (0:42:29) Kev: the at the start of the game (0:42:32) Kev: the game day is broken up into three phases morning afternoon and night and (0:42:37) Kev: Here’s your first two phases of morning and afternoon to go diving and hunt fish (0:42:42) Kev: and it’s pretty (0:42:46) Kev: At least at the beginning. I think it’s fairly it’s (0:42:48) Kev: Relatively simple or straightforward that the basic one is harpooning (0:42:52) Kev: So you you move around with Dave you have a limited air supply because you’re diving of course (0:42:58) Kev: And the air supply is essentially your HP. There’s no timer, but the the age the air is going down (0:43:04) Al: Yep. There’s a timer that you can reset, yeah. (0:43:05) Kev: so there’s a sort of (0:43:07) Kev: inherent timer, but you can find (0:43:10) Kev: Exactly. Yes, you can find (0:43:13) Kev: supplies of oxygen throughout the map. (0:43:16) Kev: And so you swim around you you have your harpoon gun which you what is it (0:43:29) Kev: like there’s ZR or a whatever and then a little targeting reticle shows up kind (0:43:35) Kev: of like the angle you’re supposed to fire the harpoon and you push the other (0:43:39) Kev: button and it fires it and it hits the fish and that at the most basic level is (0:43:46) Kev: is how you catch fish. Now of course that they add a lot more to that because (0:43:53) Kev: early on in the very like surface level a lot of the fish are small and easy to (0:43:58) Kev: catch but later on some fish will require actually multiple harpoonings to (0:44:03) Kev: get because they have more quote-unquote HP or what have you. As Al said you are (0:44:11) Kev: given a melee weapon you have a knife by default but you can find other ones (0:44:14) Kev: throughout the map. (0:44:16) Kev: The baseball bat, the sword, the hammer, things like that. (0:44:20) Al: The sleepy hammer. It’s so sick because it puts them to sleep. You’re just like knocking them out. (0:44:21) Kev: Yep, the squeaky hammer, that is a good one. (0:44:23) Kev: Yep, yep, yep, yep. (0:44:28) Kev: And you can use those, but they are a little riskier because some of the fish can damage you. (0:44:33) Kev: There are aggressive fish, as the ocean is. (0:44:38) Kev: And when they attack you, you lose oxygen, essentially. (0:44:41) Kev: Again, that’s your timer and your HP bar. (0:44:43) Kev: Um, uh, (0:44:46) Kev: Uh, later on you get guns, as Al said, um, which, uh, do not capture the fish as the harpoon does, but inflict a lot more damage. There’s a, uh, (0:44:57) Al: I think you know exactly what they do, they shit them. That’s it. (0:44:59) Kev: Yeah, there’s a few different ones. There’s like a long range, a close range. Uh, there’s actually a net gun that can catch some of them live, but that’s a, that’s a bit trickier. But, but yeah. Um, and you need the guns because later on, uh, some of those, uh, like, for instance, (0:45:16) Kev: imagine a shark will be a lot more HP heavy than a little fish and it will attack you. So just trying to harpoon it over and over, it will be a bit difficult. So use the gun to weaken the fish essentially. Um, some fish actually like the sharks cannot be actually harpooned. Uh, you just have to straight up kill them, um, uh, to get their meat and whatnot. (0:45:38) Al: although although you can use the harpin to damage (0:45:40) Kev: You can use the harpoon to damage on it. That is correct. Um, because the guns do have ammo and you, (0:45:46) Kev: they’re just, you know, ammo refills throughout the map. But if you run out of ammo, you have to switch to the harpoon to try to finish them off or whatnot. Um, yeah. And I, and of course that there’s a wide variety of fish. And sometimes they, they have different attacks or patterns or whatnot. Right. Some fish will charge it. You some will like jellyfish will try to sting you or generate electricity. There’s even a jellyfish that explodes, um, (0:46:16) Kev: which is what you see here. Yes, I have. (0:46:16) Al: Oh yeah. Have you managed to catch one of them yet? Yeah. That was really difficult because (0:46:21) Al: I was looking through my decks and I was like, “Oh, I’m missing one from the depths.” And (0:46:25) Kev: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That’s a kicker with that one. You have to act fast because even if it doesn’t hurt you, it still blows up like, you know, like a vault’s work or whatever. Um, (0:46:28) Al: I saw it was, “Oh, it’s that jellyfish, isn’t it?” And I’m like, “Oh, I need to catch it (0:46:32) Al: before it blows up.” (0:46:42) Al: - Yeah, and if it sets itself off and you shoot it, (0:46:46) Kev: Uh-huh. (0:46:46) Al: then it will blow up, right? (0:46:47) Al: So you need to either attack it without it seeing you (0:46:50) Al: or you need to catch it or stun it or something like that. (0:46:53) Al: There’s like, you can’t, you can’t just, (0:46:55) Al: ‘cause like, so you spend most of the time just going, (0:46:57) Al: oh, I’ll just whittle down their HP, kill them, (0:46:59) Al: and then catch them, but that doesn’t work for that (0:47:02) Al: ‘cause it just blows up.

Casual Trek - A Star Trek Recap and Ranking Podcast

It's time to draw some dots all over yourselves as Casual Trek's discussing Dax! This one's a Ko-Fi donor episode, so thanks Ben for the opportunity to talk about some more Trill shenanigans. We normally talk about three different shows but here we're looking at three different Dax hosts. There's also a weird sub-theme of muuuurder. In “Dax”, Jadzia's on trial for a murder that one of Dax's previous hosts may have done. We've got Odo in detective mode, a trial in Quark's bar and a gloriously disinterested judge. In “Equilibrium”, we delve into the dark past of Dax as Jadzia starts remembering things which none of her hosts have done. Oh no, she's got a Dark Passenger! It's Joran Dax! In “Field of Fire”, Ezri Dax investigates a murderer on DS9 and has to enlist Joran Dax to help her hunt them down. Joran takes the opportunity to oversell how much of a murderer he was, but we all have a fun time. Unless you're a murder victim, I guess. Just as a warning, there's some beeping on the audio as there was some building work going on. We also go on way too long about Davy Crockett and how little we know or care about him. It'll make sense when you get there. 00:02:48 Non-Star Trek Things: Fallout, Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon 00:11:47 Deep Space Nine: Dax 00:43:20 Deep Space Nine: Equilibrium 01:07:47 Deep Space Nine: Field of Fire Talking points include: Venom, Spider-Man 3, Fallout (TV show & game), GTA, Rings of Power, Person of Interest, The 3DS, Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, Hyrule Warriors, Planet of the Bass explains later Mobile Suit Gundam series, the Mortal Kombat theme, Julian Bashir has creepy Xander Harris energy, Robbie Williams' career, X-Files style cover-ups, of all people MILES compares something to Lynch, all of the Wolverine revelations, X-Men: Deadly Genesis, all the Professor X mindwipes, Britney-mania, Phoenix Wright, Invader Zim, Hannibal, Joran Dax is the crypto bro of murders, BSG, Farscape, The Dark Half starring Anthony Michael Hall from The Breakfast Club, Kira's Karen Haircut, Odo's reading habits, Rear Window, Starfleet Poirot, No one British gives a crap about Davy Crockett.

[00:35.040 –> 00:41.040] My name is Al and I’m Kevin and we are here today to talk about cottagecore games. [00:41.040 –> 00:47.040] Which I will say I think so we’re going to talk about wildflowers this episode. [00:47.040 –> 00:52.040] I think this might be the most cottagecore game in a while. [00:52.040 –> 01:02.040] Yeah so we’ll talk about that. I guess before everything else just to mention transcripts for the podcast are available in the show notes and on the website. [01:02.040 –> 01:09.040] Just scroll down you’ll see them there. Yeah so we’re going to talk about wildflowers. [01:09.040 –> 01:16.040] It has been out for quite a few months and I think it came out the end of last year or maybe it was like the middle of last year or something like that. [01:16.040 –> 01:21.040] Probably should have checked that. Wildflowers came out in September. [01:21.040 –> 01:30.040] So we’re going to talk about that and before that we’ve got a bunch of news. [01:30.040 –> 01:33.040] But first of all Kevin what have you been up to? [01:33.040 –> 01:40.040] Busy things. Work things. Furniture things. I’m restoring a table. [01:40.040 –> 01:45.040] My mom restored a table. Repainted. That’s something. Interesting. What kind of table? [01:45.040 –> 01:50.040] It’s just like a dining room table that she found at the place. It’s a nice table she just wants a different color. [01:50.040 –> 01:56.040] But yeah so that’s going on. That’s fun getting all manual physical for once in my life. [01:56.040 –> 02:04.040] Aside from that and those moments down in Breathe I have been playing Wildflowers and Wildflowers. [02:05.040 –> 02:14.040] We planned this episode. I brought it up a while ago and then our schedule kind of shifted and it kind of jumped up. [02:14.040 –> 02:22.040] And so I said wow I really need to play some more Wildflowers. So I shotgunned a lot of Wildflowers this week. [02:23.040 –> 02:28.040] But spoilers I enjoyed it. Talk about that later. [02:28.040 –> 02:38.040] But yeah aside from that I can’t think of anything meaningful. Ball guys and Pokemon masters. It’s great. [02:38.040 –> 02:44.040] Oh yeah I think we mentioned that in the last episode but we were speculating about what his Pokemon would be. [02:44.040 –> 02:50.040] And of course it’s a Moonguss. It is a Moonguss. I mean makes sense but neither of us suggested it. [02:50.040 –> 02:53.040] Nope. We were all focused on Voltarb. [02:53.040 –> 03:00.040] Yep. And he sounds great. He sounds like the goofy guy you imagine he would. [03:00.040 –> 03:05.040] Oh is he out now? Oh yeah he’s out. It came out the day after we recorded it. [03:05.040 –> 03:10.040] What accent does he have? It’s not British because a lot of the Galarian. [03:10.040 –> 03:12.040] Yeah well that’s why I was asking. [03:13.040 –> 03:18.040] No it’s just like goofy cartoony voice. Like here catch this. Something like that. [03:21.040 –> 03:26.040] It fits his character. It’s a ball guy. I haven’t pulled him yet. Hoping. [03:26.040 –> 03:29.040] But I will let everyone know. [03:29.040 –> 03:38.040] But yeah so let’s see. Wildflowers, ball guy. I really can’t think of anything in particular. Nope. Nothing comes to mind. [03:38.040 –> 03:40.040] What about you? What have you been up to? [03:40.040 –> 03:45.040] Well obviously I’ve been playing some Wildflowers this week. I haven’t played as much as you. [03:45.040 –> 03:52.040] Because I was, as Kevin mentioned, Kevin was like we should do an episode on Wildflowers. [03:52.040 –> 03:56.040] And I was like ok yeah fine. I guess I will join you in that. [03:56.040 –> 03:59.040] And then we agreed last week that we were going to do it this week. [03:59.040 –> 04:01.040] And so I was like well I guess I need to play something. [04:01.040 –> 04:04.040] So I haven’t played a few Moonguss ones. [04:04.040 –> 04:08.040] You have to. But I’ve got enough to get a feel of the game. [04:09.040 –> 04:13.040] I finished off Kirby Return to Dreamland Deluxe. [04:13.040 –> 04:18.040] Well when I say finished. So I finished off the main story. [04:18.040 –> 04:23.040] And then I think last week I had done that and I was just like I’m not sure exactly what I’m going to do after that. [04:23.040 –> 04:25.040] And the answer is nothing. [04:25.040 –> 04:31.040] So I started playing the epilogue which is where you’re playing as, oh what’s his name? [04:31.040 –> 04:37.040] Magolor? I’m not a fan of the epilogue. [04:37.040 –> 04:40.040] And the reason I’m not a fan is because I don’t like the controls. [04:40.040 –> 04:45.040] So it’s not that it’s not Kirby. Because obviously I like lots of different platformers. [04:45.040 –> 04:49.040] I enjoy platformers. It’s one of the things I really like to play. [04:49.040 –> 04:54.040] But the way that Magolor plays just feels really frustrating. [04:54.040 –> 05:01.040] So anytime you do an attack in the air you start falling down and then you cannot do anything else until you hit the ground. [05:01.040 –> 05:03.040] And it just feels really frustrating. [05:03.040 –> 05:10.040] I feel like that’s going to unlock later on because the way that they’re doing the epilogue is that you add more powers as you go on. [05:10.040 –> 05:14.040] But it just made some of the levels in the middle just really frustrating. [05:14.040 –> 05:16.040] Because it’s like I don’t have all my powers. [05:16.040 –> 05:21.040] And I’ve got some really hard challenges which would be fun if I could do things. [05:21.040 –> 05:28.040] There’s a point where you have to jump over, drop a bomb down and then somehow make it back onto the thing really quickly. [05:28.040 –> 05:35.040] And I just cannot figure out how to do it. There’s just no, in my mind I just can’t feel any way to control that. It’s really frustrating. [05:35.040 –> 05:39.040] That’s interesting because you know it’s a Kirby game. [05:39.040 –> 05:44.040] Controls usually aren’t an issue. They’re usually pretty simple and enjoyable. [05:44.040 –> 05:50.040] That is really interesting. I am curious. I’d hope to get that at some point and see for myself. [05:50.040 –> 05:55.040] It’s a really nice game. I’ve not played obviously the original so I don’t know how well it is in terms of a remake. [05:55.040 –> 05:59.040] But the game itself plays really well. I really enjoyed it. [05:59.040 –> 06:05.040] I played for a brief amount. It was enjoyable. I imagine there weren’t that many significant changes. [06:05.040 –> 06:11.040] It was already a pretty modern Kirby game so I’m sure it’s fairly close to the original in terms of its controls. [06:11.040 –> 06:13.040] But yeah, okay. [06:13.040 –> 06:15.040] So yeah, I’m done with that. [06:15.040 –> 06:24.040] And I have started Coral Island. So I think in the last episode I had mentioned that my key was for Switch and of course Switch isn’t out yet. [06:24.040 –> 06:29.040] Well I managed to contact them and they switched it to a Steam key so I’m now playing it on my Steam Deck. [06:29.040 –> 06:35.040] So that will be fun. It may well be covered in an episode in the future. [06:35.040 –> 06:41.040] And I’ve been obviously kind of going through the Bloom update still which is fun. [06:41.040 –> 06:52.040] They finally, I think I said this on our original podcast episode about Bloom, but we finally found a game that I can just play for five minutes and then put down every day. [06:52.040 –> 06:56.040] Because that’s how Animal Crossing is meant to be played and I couldn’t play it that way. [06:56.040 –> 07:00.040] Just something in my mind just stopped me doing that. But I’m managing it for Bloom, which is interesting. [07:00.040 –> 07:05.040] Oh my gosh, Animal Crossing never felt that way to me. [07:05.040 –> 07:09.040] No, but it definitely feels like they want you to play it that way. [07:09.040 –> 07:11.040] But I just never could. [07:11.040 –> 07:22.040] Yeah, no, I think most people couldn’t. But cool, I’m glad that you found a game that you can play a little bit as a little de-stresser, whatever you want to call it, a little breather. [07:22.040 –> 07:25.040] Without getting too in-depth, that sounds pretty nice. [07:25.040 –> 07:32.040] I don’t know, see I play Unite like daily, but that’s for like half an hour. [07:32.040 –> 07:34.040] The five minute thing is the kicker. [07:35.040 –> 07:42.040] Yeah, no, I literally, I pick it up, I go and check my flowers. If there’s something to harvest, I harvest and then replant. [07:42.040 –> 07:48.040] And then I get checked through any new messages, see what the new story is, and then I put it down and pick it up the next day. [07:48.040 –> 07:49.040] That sounds pretty nice. [07:49.040 –> 07:53.040] It is. It’s good fun. Cool, should we talk about some news? [07:53.040 –> 07:54.040] I guess so. [07:54.040 –> 08:00.040] So, first of all we have Chia. I think that’s how it’s meant to be said. Chia. [08:00.040 –> 08:01.040] Chia. [08:01.040 –> 08:10.040] This is the game based in New Caledonia, which Kevin now does believe is a real place, is that correct? [08:10.040 –> 08:14.040] I do believe. I believe in New Caledonia. [08:14.040 –> 08:17.040] You believe in it, you can do it in New Caledonia. [08:17.040 –> 08:19.040] I’m no longer of the conspiracy crowd. [08:20.040 –> 08:27.040] So it’s now out on PS4 and PS5 and on Epic Game Store. [08:27.040 –> 08:34.040] So it’s interesting, this one seems to have really caught the wider games crowd as well. [08:34.040 –> 08:38.040] Like occasionally you get a game that we cover that’s like, oh this is like a game. [08:38.040 –> 08:45.040] But like I’ve seen all the kind of big game journalism places that I follow, like they’ve all been talking about this game, which is interesting. [08:45.040 –> 08:53.040] That is interesting. I will say though, they dropped a radical trailer for it, so it makes sense, it would catch people’s attention. [08:53.040 –> 08:58.040] Yeah, yeah, definitely. But it looks interesting. [08:58.040 –> 09:06.040] I mean people are basically comparing it to Breath of the Wild, but more calm and obviously based on New Caledonia. [09:06.040 –> 09:11.040] I didn’t expect that comparison, but okay sure that makes sense. [09:11.040 –> 09:15.040] Yeah, well I’ve not played it, so I can’t confirm whether I would agree with that or not. [09:15.040 –> 09:20.040] I will give especially one props though, near the end of the trailer. [09:20.040 –> 09:30.040] They mention how it was inspired by the homeland of the founders of the development company, I don’t know how you pronounce it. [09:30.040 –> 09:39.040] And they have like voice acting and musics from the local languages from New Caledonian talents, which is very cool. [09:40.040 –> 09:47.040] And you can see that in the trailer, they clearly did the justice, so very cool to see that. [09:47.040 –> 09:54.040] I always like seeing smaller cultures who haven’t gotten a lot of attention get a goal somewhere, so very good for them. [09:54.040 –> 10:00.040] Yeah, definitely. Next we have our release date for Above Snakes. [10:00.040 –> 10:07.040] So this is the one that we were talking about a few weeks ago, we were talking about it with Nami. [10:08.040 –> 10:16.040] So that is coming out on the 25th of May, that’s obviously only the Steam version. [10:16.040 –> 10:22.040] But the console, I think it’s just Switch is coming later, they’ve not started working on that yet. [10:22.040 –> 10:25.040] They’ll be working on that after release. [10:25.040 –> 10:31.040] So yeah, there’s also a prologue, I mean it’s basically just a demo right? [10:32.040 –> 10:40.040] You can download that on Steam just now and play that if you would like, I’ll put that in the show notes. [10:40.040 –> 10:47.040] If you want to try it out and see how the gameplay, it says there’s about 2-3 hours worth of gameplay in the demo. [10:48.040 –> 10:55.040] I’m looking at the trailer because I didn’t even remember what the gameplay looked like since our focus is on the culture stuff. [10:56.040 –> 11:02.040] First of all, the game visually looks very nice, I’m giving props for that. [11:02.040 –> 11:10.040] Secondly, so it’s an isometric game where you build and craft and so on and so forth. [11:10.040 –> 11:19.040] But the crazy part is you zoom out on the global map or whatever and you can just drop chunks of land into an isometric grid. [11:19.040 –> 11:24.040] And you just see the land is boom, land and ed. [11:24.040 –> 11:28.040] It’s a very satisfying thwomp isn’t it? [11:28.040 –> 11:37.040] Yeah it is. So yeah it looks good, aside from putting all the culture stuff, the game age. [11:37.040 –> 11:45.040] So cool, good for them. May 25th, that’s going to be here sooner than I want it to be. Time’s going too fast. [11:45.040 –> 11:52.040] Yeah I don’t know how quickly I’ll get to this game because of course we know what May is. May is Zelda month. [11:52.040 –> 12:02.040] Oh is it? I didn’t remember. Oh no. I’m not ready. I have an extra month now. March 2. [12:02.040 –> 12:10.040] Well if we were running on the international calendar system, that has 13 months. [12:11.040 –> 12:19.040] I mean it doesn’t actually give you any more time. Still, not the point. [12:19.040 –> 12:26.040] The best calendar system is actually from Wildflowers. I’ll discuss it when we get there. [12:26.040 –> 12:31.040] Just keep this in mind folks, Wildflowers. [12:31.040 –> 12:34.040] You know what else does it best? [12:34.040 –> 12:39.040] Oh that’s a big assumption. We’ve not played it yet. [12:39.040 –> 12:42.040] It needs to be good. [12:42.040 –> 12:51.040] Well yeah, Taranel. It will be out on Windows by the time this podcast comes out. [12:51.040 –> 13:00.040] I want to say that I was going through the show notes and I saw that and I was like it’s out now and then I read the parenthesis by the time the episode comes out. [13:00.040 –> 13:05.040] I’m like no, it’s not now. [13:06.040 –> 13:10.040] But the sad news is the Mac and Linux versions have been delayed. [13:10.040 –> 13:14.040] Is it that sad? Ok Mac people, sure, but Linux! [13:14.040 –> 13:18.040] Hey! Come on! Why are we being harsh on Linux here? [13:18.040 –> 13:22.040] Linux is your Steam Deck. Your Steam Deck runs on Linux. Not your Steam Deck, you don’t have a Steam Deck. [13:22.040 –> 13:25.040] This Steam Deck runs on Linux. [13:27.040 –> 13:34.040] Although presumably the Steam Deck will just download the Windows version because it can play Windows games as well. [13:35.040 –> 13:40.040] And the soundtrack is also out now, so if you want to go. [13:40.040 –> 13:45.040] And that’s on, it’s just like a big YouTube, an hour and a half, an hour long YouTube video. [13:45.040 –> 13:49.040] Wow, let me try saying that again. It’s an hour long YouTube video. [13:49.040 –> 13:52.040] You said it right already, you just repeated it. [13:52.040 –> 13:54.040] Very calm, relaxing music. [13:54.040 –> 13:58.040] I haven’t listened to it, I kind of wanted to but eh, I’ll just wait. [13:58.040 –> 14:02.040] You know what’s not calm and relaxing? [14:02.040 –> 14:06.040] Enchanted definitely doesn’t look calm and relaxing. [14:06.040 –> 14:09.040] Was this the game that we only had a name last week? [14:09.040 –> 14:14.040] I think we talked about it last week, but we didn’t really look into it too much. [14:14.040 –> 14:19.040] I don’t think I truly understood what this game was. [14:19.040 –> 14:22.040] I definitely didn’t. [14:22.040 –> 14:25.040] It basically looks like, what’s the game I’m thinking of? [14:25.040 –> 14:27.040] Overcooked. [14:28.040 –> 14:32.040] You’re running a magical hotel, Overcooked style. [14:32.040 –> 14:37.040] And it looks as chaotic and frantic as Overcooked. [14:37.040 –> 14:38.040] It does. [14:38.040 –> 14:41.040] You can play with up to four people. [14:41.040 –> 14:46.040] There’s upgrades and progress, so I don’t think it’s like Overcooked with just little levels. [14:46.040 –> 14:50.040] But at the same time you’re cooking and doing objectives, so I don’t know. [14:50.040 –> 14:57.040] I’m having trouble understanding how this game works just other than it’s Overcooked but hotel. [14:57.040 –> 15:02.040] Yeah, it looks like they have different kind of levels. [15:02.040 –> 15:10.040] So one of them is in, you’re just cooking one of them, there’s a river and you have to go and get the fish from it and then go cook them. [15:10.040 –> 15:14.040] Stuff like that. I presume there’s a farming one, bits as well. [15:14.040 –> 15:18.040] You can turn your body into a cake for some reason. [15:18.040 –> 15:21.040] I mean it looks gorgeous. [15:21.040 –> 15:26.040] I’m a little eh on the design, the style they went with. [15:26.040 –> 15:28.040] I love it. [15:28.040 –> 15:31.040] But for what it is going for it looks great. [15:31.040 –> 15:35.040] Yeah, it’s definitely one of those, you can’t say it looks bad, you can say you don’t like it. [15:35.040 –> 15:37.040] Yeah, I know for sure. [15:37.040 –> 15:40.040] It’s not an actively bad looking game. [15:41.040 –> 15:47.040] There’s a lot going on in that game because it’s got a lot of the cottage core things. [15:47.040 –> 15:55.040] The cooking just looks straight up like Overcooked but they have crafting and feeding cows and furnitures and I don’t know. [15:55.040 –> 15:57.040] There’s a lot going on there. [15:57.040 –> 16:06.040] I’m really curious because I see single player, it looks like it could be better for single player than Overcooked so that would be interesting to see. [16:07.040 –> 16:10.040] And you can have an echidna follow you around. [16:10.040 –> 16:12.040] An echidna? [16:12.040 –> 16:14.040] Yeah, it’s in the trailer. [16:14.040 –> 16:16.040] I don’t know what to say. [16:16.040 –> 16:19.040] And there’s also little onion guys they have to get rid of. [16:19.040 –> 16:22.040] There’s a lot going on, people just watch this trailer. [16:22.040 –> 16:28.040] Anyway, the point of this was that it’s coming out on Tuesday, the same day as Taranel. [16:28.040 –> 16:32.040] So it will be out by the time this episode comes out on Steam. [16:32.040 –> 16:35.040] The Switch version is coming soon, not out yet. [16:36.040 –> 16:42.040] I’m interested in giving this game a shot, especially because I have people I can play locally with. [16:42.040 –> 16:49.040] But I don’t know when I’ll be playing with it because Taranel drops the same day and I’ll be… [16:49.040 –> 16:55.040] And Kora Lost Days feels like a while since we talked about this and you might be like, oh but it’s already out. [16:55.040 –> 16:58.040] It’s not out yet on the PS4 and Xbox. [16:58.040 –> 17:04.040] So they’re coming on the 30th of March, which I think is the day after this podcast comes out. [17:05.040 –> 17:08.040] So if you’ve been waiting for those versions, there you go. [17:08.040 –> 17:12.040] And hopefully it works a little better with some of those rough edges polished up a little bit. [17:12.040 –> 17:15.040] Something tells me no, but who knows. [17:15.040 –> 17:16.040] Try it. [17:16.040 –> 17:17.040] Yeah, yeah. [17:17.040 –> 17:19.040] It’s a fine game. [17:19.040 –> 17:22.040] The physical editions still aren’t out yet, but they’re coming. [17:22.040 –> 17:26.040] Oh yeah, I looked at the… there’s all sorts of physical stuff. [17:26.040 –> 17:28.040] Look, I am over on Kora Lost Days. [17:28.040 –> 17:33.040] I am all in on, what’s it called, the next one. [17:33.040 –> 17:37.040] Mika and the Lost… no, Mika and the Witches… oh, there’s two. [17:37.040 –> 17:42.040] There’s Mika and the Witches Mountain and there’s another one that’s like a platformer. [17:42.040 –> 17:47.040] Wait, is Mika in the Ankora universe? [17:47.040 –> 17:48.040] Yeah, yeah. [17:48.040 –> 17:49.040] Wait, it is? [17:49.040 –> 17:50.040] Yeah. [17:50.040 –> 17:51.040] Oh, what? [17:51.040 –> 17:53.040] I didn’t know this! [17:53.040 –> 17:57.040] All of the Chibi games are in the same universe. [17:57.040 –> 18:01.040] I don’t remember this, but Mika looks incredible! [18:01.040 –> 18:05.040] Who cares about Ankora? [18:05.040 –> 18:06.040] Oh no. [18:06.040 –> 18:09.040] Kora and the Five Pirates of Mara, that’s the other one. [18:09.040 –> 18:12.040] That’s the platformer at some point this year apparently. [18:12.040 –> 18:13.040] I’m looking forward to that. [18:13.040 –> 18:17.040] And yeah, Mika is obviously definitely a podcast game. [18:17.040 –> 18:21.040] Mika’s just going to dominate it and be the best. [18:21.040 –> 18:25.040] Ah, but the question is will I prefer it to Summer and Mara or not? [18:25.040 –> 18:26.040] That’s the big… [18:26.040 –> 18:27.040] Yes. [18:27.040 –> 18:28.040] Yes. [18:28.040 –> 18:29.040] I’m answering yes. [18:29.040 –> 18:30.040] Well, we’ll see. [18:30.040 –> 18:31.040] We’ll see. [18:31.040 –> 18:34.040] It’s just objectively better, you can see. [18:34.040 –> 18:38.040] I don’t think there’s anything objective about it. [18:38.040 –> 18:40.040] We are the authority. [18:40.040 –> 18:44.040] We are the influencers here. [18:44.040 –> 18:45.040] Oh dear. [18:45.040 –> 18:50.040] Lens Island have an update out. [18:50.040 –> 18:54.040] The currents and controllers update, very catchy. [18:54.040 –> 18:57.040] Can you guess what this has in the update? [18:57.040 –> 19:00.040] It has controller support and currents. [19:00.040 –> 19:05.040] Now the currents actually might throw you for a loop because I didn’t. [19:05.040 –> 19:07.040] Is this what people want? [19:07.040 –> 19:09.040] Procedurally generated ocean currents? [19:09.040 –> 19:13.040] Well, I mean, the whole point is this is an exploration game, right? [19:13.040 –> 19:18.040] So, you know, currents are accurate to real life. [19:18.040 –> 19:19.040] I don’t know. [19:19.040 –> 19:23.040] I mean, realistically, the reason I’m talking about this is the controller support, right? [19:23.040 –> 19:27.040] It’s got basic controller support now, but there’s more coming later. [19:27.040 –> 19:30.040] And also procedurally generated ocean currents. [19:30.040 –> 19:32.040] So if that’s really what you were like, [19:32.040 –> 19:37.040] Oh, I’ve been waiting for this game, but now I get the procedurally generated ocean currents. [19:37.040 –> 19:39.040] Now’s the time to play. [19:39.040 –> 19:42.040] Obviously. [19:42.040 –> 19:45.040] I don’t know what to say. [19:45.040 –> 19:46.040] Oh yeah. [19:46.040 –> 19:52.040] You can also build on tiny little islands as well now, which is more exciting. [19:52.040 –> 19:53.040] I actually really like that. [19:53.040 –> 19:59.040] There’s a dozen, over a dozen new sandbanks, coral reefs, and unique rock formations that can be found at sea. [19:59.040 –> 20:01.040] Although don’t build on a coral reef. [20:01.040 –> 20:03.040] Oh no, don’t do that. [20:03.040 –> 20:08.040] Ocean houses can also be useful when building them next to ocean currents for easy traversal around the map. [20:08.040 –> 20:11.040] So yeah, I think your boats move faster on the currents. [20:11.040 –> 20:12.040] Okay. [20:12.040 –> 20:16.040] See, that seems fun making a network of ocean homes with boats. [20:16.040 –> 20:17.040] Yeah, that sounds cool. [20:17.040 –> 20:24.040] Just, just don’t like go on one and then find yourself halfway across the world and you’re lost now. [20:24.040 –> 20:25.040] So be careful. [20:25.040 –> 20:28.040] What was that? The Australian… [20:28.040 –> 20:31.040] From Finding Nemo, what was that? [20:31.040 –> 20:34.040] Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know what you mean. [20:34.040 –> 20:35.040] I can’t remember. [20:35.040 –> 20:37.040] EAC, I don’t remember. [20:37.040 –> 20:42.040] EAC, the East Australian Current, yeah. [20:42.040 –> 20:43.040] Classic. [20:43.040 –> 20:46.040] Go get to meet Crush. Choo choo kachoo. [20:46.040 –> 20:49.040] Wild flowers. Shall we talk about that again? [20:49.040 –> 20:51.040] Fine, fine. [20:51.040 –> 20:53.040] We’re not a Finding Nemo podcast. [20:53.040 –> 20:55.040] Not yet. [20:55.040 –> 20:58.040] Look, we’re getting there. We’re close. [20:58.040 –> 21:01.040] Lens Island and Coral Island, we’re on our way. [21:01.040 –> 21:04.040] We even have someone from New Zealand who’s occasionally on the podcast. [21:04.040 –> 21:06.040] It’s not Australia, but it’s close. [21:06.040 –> 21:08.040] We do. [21:08.040 –> 21:11.040] We have an Australian fan, a friend on here. [21:11.040 –> 21:19.040] Oh, no, Mark, if you ever listen to this, please join us and do Crush impression. [21:19.040 –> 21:23.040] So we’re going to talk about wild flowers. [21:23.040 –> 21:25.040] There are no Australians in that game. [21:25.040 –> 21:29.040] A quick bit of background to this game. [21:29.040 –> 21:35.040] So it’s on Switch and on Apple Arcade. [21:35.040 –> 21:38.040] I believe it is at some point coming to PC. [21:38.040 –> 21:40.040] I don’t know if that’s out yet, though. [21:40.040 –> 21:43.040] I just assume everything on Earth comes out on PC first. [21:43.040 –> 21:46.040] It is out on PC now. No, it didn’t come out first. [21:46.040 –> 21:48.040] I think they got the… [21:48.040 –> 21:52.040] Oh, it looks like the… So we said at the beginning it came out in September. [21:52.040 –> 21:54.040] That was the PC version. [21:54.040 –> 21:58.040] So I think the Switch and Apple Arcade one came earlier. [21:58.040 –> 22:00.040] Huh. OK. [22:00.040 –> 22:02.040] So that… [22:02.040 –> 22:05.040] I think they must have got a deal from Apple to get it on Apple Arcade first. [22:05.040 –> 22:09.040] And it came out on Switch at the same time, and then it came out on Steam. [22:09.040 –> 22:12.040] So, yeah, I mean, I guess… [22:12.040 –> 22:15.040] How would you describe this game, Kevin? [22:15.040 –> 22:18.040] Other than what I said at the beginning, which was the ultimate cottagecore game. [22:18.040 –> 22:24.040] I would describe this as the best Stardew clone. [22:24.040 –> 22:27.040] I’m using that. I’m using… Yeah. [22:27.040 –> 22:32.040] So, OK, I do need to give that a little more nuance because it’s a very clickbaity thought. [22:32.040 –> 22:34.040] No, we don’t want nuance. [22:35.040 –> 22:40.040] So I call it a Stardew clone, but it doesn’t feel like a clone. [22:40.040 –> 22:44.040] I mean, it feels like there’s the same DNA because it’s a farming game. [22:44.040 –> 22:48.040] People probably have played Stardew and learned lessons from that. [22:48.040 –> 22:53.040] But everything is polished and innovated in a meaningful way, right? [22:53.040 –> 22:59.040] Like, there’s some games you look at like, yeah, that’s that’s just Stardew plus X or whatever, right? [22:59.040 –> 23:00.040] Yeah. [23:00.040 –> 23:03.040] This game takes it up a notch on, like, every level. [23:03.040 –> 23:10.040] Like, every mechanic feels like they tweaked or changed meaningfully the whole presentation. [23:10.040 –> 23:15.040] This is a full 3D game with full voice acting. That’s nuts. [23:15.040 –> 23:17.040] I didn’t expect full voice acting. [23:17.040 –> 23:27.040] But, yeah, but it has a lot of, again, a lot of the same basic DNA of not having enough hours in the day to do the 20 million tasks you want to do. [23:27.040 –> 23:31.040] And an energy system and farming and all that good stuff. [23:31.040 –> 23:39.040] For the full disclosure, I am not done with summer in my first year yet. [23:39.040 –> 23:43.040] Which, that said, that’s a significant amount of time, though. [23:43.040 –> 23:46.040] I will explain a little how that works. [23:46.040 –> 23:49.040] What about you, Al? What are your thoughts thus far? [23:49.040 –> 23:53.040] Yeah, so I’m further behind than you because, as I mentioned, I only started. [23:53.040 –> 23:57.040] But I think you don’t have to play a lot of this game to know how well it plays. [23:57.040 –> 24:02.040] I mean, let’s put it this way, I don’t think I’m going to stop playing this game immediately. [24:02.040 –> 24:03.040] Yeah. [24:03.040 –> 24:11.040] The, yeah, it definitely, I think I agree and it feels inspired, it definitely feels inspired by Stardew. [24:11.040 –> 24:16.040] But it definitely, it doesn’t seem to be doing things because Stardew does them. [24:16.040 –> 24:18.040] Like, it does a lot of things differently. [24:18.040 –> 24:19.040] Yes. [24:19.040 –> 24:21.040] I think it’s doing what Stardew did. [24:21.040 –> 24:25.040] It’s taking something and going, how would I like this to work instead? [24:25.040 –> 24:27.040] Yes, exactly. [24:27.040 –> 24:30.040] And that is good. That’s how we wanted it to happen. [24:30.040 –> 24:35.040] Yeah, absolutely. I kind of wanted to make that point in my head earlier. [24:35.040 –> 24:39.040] So, like, Stardew was like a jump from Harvest Moon, right? [24:39.040 –> 24:42.040] Wildflowers feels like a jump from Stardew. [24:42.040 –> 24:46.040] I think I would say, so I think that Stardew generally did everything better. [24:46.040 –> 24:54.040] I will say that I think Wildflowers does everything different, but I think a lot of it could be up to how you like how it plays, right? [24:54.040 –> 24:57.040] Like, I can absolutely see how someone would not like this game. [24:57.040 –> 24:59.040] Yeah, no, I agree. I was about to say that, right? [24:59.040 –> 25:05.040] Like, I don’t think it’s, because Stardew defined a genre, basically, like it was a game changer, right? [25:05.040 –> 25:11.040] I don’t think Wildflowers is a game changer, but it’s a very solid game, a great game. [25:12.040 –> 25:14.040] So, yeah, no, I agree with you there. [25:14.040 –> 25:22.040] That’s why I was a little hesitant saying that, because it’s not the next Stardew, but it is, it’s a great game. [25:22.040 –> 25:29.040] I will, oh, one thing I should add, so I didn’t expect to play Wildflowers. [25:29.040 –> 25:37.040] I picked it up for reasons that, a few reasons that I will have to discuss at another time with you, Al. [25:37.040 –> 25:40.040] That’s some behind the scenes stuff. [25:40.040 –> 25:41.040] Intriguing. [25:41.040 –> 25:49.040] But, what’s interesting is, at first I wasn’t that interested, because one of my big criticisms is the art style. [25:49.040 –> 25:53.040] Like, I don’t like how the people, the design looks, I don’t know, just kind of on it. [25:53.040 –> 25:58.040] I agree. The people’s design is, there’s something about it that creeps me out. [25:58.040 –> 26:05.040] It’s the Bratz doll look kind of thing, something about their heads and their hands. [26:05.040 –> 26:08.040] I don’t know, just, it’s eh. [26:08.040 –> 26:13.040] I got used to it overplaying so much, but I’m still not a fan of it. [26:13.040 –> 26:20.040] So at first I wasn’t that interested, and on paper it sounded like just another farming game. [26:20.040 –> 26:27.040] But, once I looked at the reviews, they were all really good, and then I played it and I was like, oh, I’m not just playing this anymore for the podcast. [26:27.040 –> 26:30.040] I’m really enjoying this now. [26:30.040 –> 26:33.040] It consumed my week because I was enjoying it. [26:34.040 –> 26:37.040] So yeah, it’s unexpectedly for me. [26:37.040 –> 26:38.040] Yeah. [26:38.040 –> 26:41.040] Okay, so let’s get into it. [26:41.040 –> 26:45.040] Yeah, let’s talk about, so I think I’ve got a list of mechanics I want to talk about. [26:45.040 –> 26:50.040] The first one is, for me, the first thing that kind of struck me was the movement. [26:50.040 –> 26:56.040] So, I think, apart from the fact that you can just jump over fences, which, have you noticed that yet? [26:56.040 –> 26:57.040] You can just jump over fences? [26:57.040 –> 27:01.040] It blew my mind. It blew my mind. You can just run up to it and jump over it. [27:01.040 –> 27:06.040] What is this? It’s bizarre. I was not expecting that to happen. [27:06.040 –> 27:11.040] Terra is the character’s name, by the way. It’s not Stardew, your own farmer. You’re playing a character named Terra. [27:11.040 –> 27:18.040] Yeah, oh, that’s a good point, actually. Maybe let’s talk about that, because there is basically no character customization because of that. [27:18.040 –> 27:24.040] I added the boutique. It’s an update. I started that quest, but that was close. [27:24.040 –> 27:30.040] This is not empty character self-insert. You are playing Terra Wild. [27:30.040 –> 27:34.040] And I always feel a bit kind of like, I don’t think every game has to have character customization. [27:34.040 –> 27:39.040] No. No, they do not. And this is a great example of why not. [27:39.040 –> 27:46.040] Yeah. I think I would have no issues with that if there wasn’t romance in the game. [27:46.040 –> 27:47.040] Ah? [27:47.040 –> 27:53.040] But it feels weird to have romance in a game when I’m not playing as a character I’ve created. [27:53.040 –> 28:00.040] Because then I’m like, well, what do I do here? Am I choosing for this character or am I choosing for me? [28:00.040 –> 28:04.040] Who am I choosing for here? And I don’t know what to do in that situation. [28:04.040 –> 28:13.040] Look, I play Fire Emblem. I matchmate. I know this. It’s not that odd to me, I guess. [28:13.040 –> 28:22.040] But I see what you mean, right? It is weird that Terra is a fully defined character, except in romance you can kind of navigate that however you want. [28:22.040 –> 28:28.040] So that’s interesting. I don’t know. I feel like there’s a deep thought here, but I can’t think of it right now. [28:28.040 –> 28:34.040] But, you know, I see what you mean. You would think as a full character she’d have her own preference. [28:34.040 –> 28:41.040] Yeah. It’s just a small thing. And I suspect the way I’m going to deal with it is by just not doing the romance. [28:41.040 –> 28:46.040] Because, as we’ve discussed, we don’t think every game needs to have romance. [28:47.040 –> 28:52.040] I think if you’re not feeling it, don’t do it. That’s the beauty of these games, right? [28:52.040 –> 29:03.040] Yup, yup. So in this one, despite people talking about it, because there’s several single people, and it’s a thing, the dialogue is well written and that’s brought up. [29:03.040 –> 29:08.040] There still doesn’t feel like a lot of pressure that you have to get hitched or anything like that. [29:08.040 –> 29:20.040] Even if your grandmother tells you to get hitched or whatever. It’s very nice that it’s pretty light, while still being a strong component. It’s a very nice balance. [29:20.040 –> 29:24.040] And you say that, Al, but you haven’t met Wesley yet. [29:24.040 –> 29:28.040] Fair enough. [29:28.040 –> 29:35.040] But yeah, no. I’m probably going with Wesley, but I’ll talk about that later. [29:35.040 –> 29:46.040] Okay, going back to what we opened with the movement. Yes, Tara just wore a dress and jumped over fences and it’s nuts. It blew my mind you can do that. You don’t have to walk to the doors. It’s great! [29:46.040 –> 29:55.040] Yeah, so it’ll be interesting to see how you react to what I’m about to say, but I’m not a fan of the movement in the game in general. [29:56.040 –> 30:05.040] And it might be, now you’ve kind of ruined my might be there, but I’m going to say what I was going to say anyway. It might be because I’m playing on the iPad. I’m not sure. [30:05.040 –> 30:18.040] So the way that movement works on the iPad, there’s actually two different ways of doing it, but they start out by you basically dragging around on the screen vaguely where you want them to go. [30:18.040 –> 30:30.040] So if they’re in the middle of the screen and you want them to go up, you have to press the screen above the character and they will go in that direction. [30:30.040 –> 30:44.040] Which probably works fine on a phone, and I’m not even playing on a big iPad. I’m playing on the iPad mini. It’s basically just like a big phone, but it might be better on a phone if you can reach the whole screen. [30:45.040 –> 30:56.040] But it’s really awkward. It’s really awkward because you’re like, I want to go across to this plant and you have to basically press in that general direction to get it. [30:56.040 –> 31:05.040] It was really weird and awkward. There is a setting where you can change it to have a virtual joystick, which is what I did because I was going literally insane. [31:05.040 –> 31:08.040] And that’s better. [31:08.040 –> 31:12.040] Yeah, I don’t know why it’s the default. I really don’t know why it’s the default. [31:12.040 –> 31:14.040] I don’t know. That’s odd. [31:14.040 –> 31:18.040] Or why they don’t give you the option when you’re starting up. Which movement style would you like? That would be fine. [31:18.040 –> 31:25.040] Because I get why some people might want that, especially if they’re playing on a phone, but that is an insane default and not even to tell you there’s another option. [31:25.040 –> 31:32.040] I was already complaining about this and I was like, well, let me just check the settings. Oh yes, there is a setting to have a virtual joystick, so I have done that. [31:32.040 –> 31:40.040] But other than that, the movement is fine, but there’s something about it that I’m not a huge fan of and I’m not sure what it is. What are your thoughts on that? [31:40.040 –> 31:47.040] Well, I’m playing on Switch, so I’m using a non-virtual joystick. I’m playing on a controller. [31:47.040 –> 31:49.040] A joystick you might call it. [31:49.040 –> 31:56.040] Yes, a physical joystick. So I don’t have that whole issue, which just sounds nightmarish. [31:56.040 –> 32:03.040] But the movement, I think it’s just too slow. I think that’s the biggest thing. Her walking is kind of slow. [32:03.040 –> 32:13.040] But I think it’s intentional. It’s like Stardew. I think, if I recall correctly, don’t you speed up in Stardew? You get faster. I could be wrong. [32:13.040 –> 32:16.040] I don’t think so. You can get the horse. [32:16.040 –> 32:22.040] Yeah. Well, at the very least it does that. I think it’s intentional because you can get speedups later in the game. [32:23.040 –> 32:32.040] So I think they slowed it down so you feel very incentivized to speed up. Which, as of right now, I’ve seen there is a spell you can cast on yourself. [32:35.040 –> 32:41.040] Did we describe the hook of this game? I don’t think we did, did we? That you’re falling by day, witch by night? [32:41.040 –> 32:43.040] Yeah, I guess we could talk about that. [32:43.040 –> 32:48.040] I should just point out that’s a selling point, right? In Stardew, you’re also a witch by night. [32:48.040 –> 32:58.040] So magic is a thing in this game. And one of the spells you can cast on yourself is a speedup spell. I’ve not used it yet, but that’s the biggest thing for me, I think. [32:58.040 –> 33:09.040] It’s just the movement’s a little on the slow side, especially with all the things you want to do. The map isn’t as big as Stardew’s, I don’t think, to compensate for that. [33:10.040 –> 33:21.040] Yeah, so that is one thing I wanted to talk about. It’s not a huge map, and I actually quite like that. So I mentioned I’ve been playing Coral Island, and that is a huge map. [33:21.040 –> 33:32.040] And there can be advantages and disadvantages to it, but I actually quite like playing a game that has quite a small area, because I am not playing an exploration game. [33:33.040 –> 33:45.040] I am not playing this game to explore. I am playing this game to farm, and to get married, or to mine, or do some boring, repetitive stuff. [33:45.040 –> 33:57.040] And apparently in this case, magic. But I’m not looking for an exploration game. There are other games I might play to do that. [33:57.040 –> 34:01.040] And so I quite like the fact that it’s quite a small map. [34:01.040 –> 34:10.040] It’s very deliberate, right? Everything, how it’s placed. And because it’s small, there’s a lot to see and do on the island. [34:10.040 –> 34:14.040] But you learn it quickly, and you know how to get to it. [34:14.040 –> 34:22.040] You do learn it reasonably quickly. However, I will say, I am not a fan of the map they have in-game, because it tells you nothing. [34:22.040 –> 34:24.040] Yeah, it’s not great. It does not. [34:25.040 –> 34:26.040] It does not. [34:26.040 –> 34:33.040] There’s like a quest very early on where you have to meet everyone in the village, and I’m like, okay, where are they? [34:33.040 –> 34:40.040] There’s one person that I haven’t found. I don’t know who this person is. I don’t know where they are. Turns out they live like a hermit in the forest. [34:40.040 –> 34:41.040] Yeah. [34:41.040 –> 34:48.040] But I found them. But it’s just like, I don’t understand how they’re like, oh, go to this shop. How do I get to that shop? [34:48.040 –> 34:55.040] I don’t know. Like, sure, it’s in the main town, but like, there are about 10 shops in the main town. Am I expected to go into each? [34:55.040 –> 35:05.040] The map gives you no indication as to what is where at all, other than like, this is the town, this is the forest, this is the beach, that’s it. [35:05.040 –> 35:08.040] There’s no other indication as to where anything is. [35:08.040 –> 35:14.040] Yeah, no, I fully agree with that. The map’s garbage, not where they’ve been looking at. [35:15.040 –> 35:22.040] But you do learn it pretty quickly because it is quite a spot, so that’s only a very early, like, I learned that really quickly on. [35:22.040 –> 35:27.040] Like, I haven’t played the game a huge amount at all, and I know pretty much the whole map now. [35:27.040 –> 35:38.040] Yeah, but no, that sort of thing, I don’t know why, really irks me in games in general. Like, that’s bad game design, right? [35:38.040 –> 35:43.040] Game design, you want your things to be functional and useful, right? So yeah, that’s something that always bugged me. [35:43.040 –> 35:55.040] I will say though, in terms of the actual map, like the island, there are two big area, I say big, quote unquote, there are two areas to expand. [35:55.040 –> 36:04.040] One is the mountain area, you have to access by building a bridge, and the other one is, okay, I’m going to, well there’s another area in game. [36:04.040 –> 36:13.040] You can see, I don’t want to say, it’s later in the game, it’s on, like, the website, so it’s not really spoilers, but I won’t mention it here. [36:13.040 –> 36:21.040] But anyways, it expands, is the point I’m trying to say. And more characters move in, so there are more buildings and things to see later. [36:21.040 –> 36:29.040] But in general though, the map is good, and I haven’t gotten a broom yet, but I hope once I get a broom, the movement feels great. [36:30.040 –> 36:38.040] Yeah, yeah, I obviously don’t have the broom either, but I like the look of it. [36:38.040 –> 36:49.040] It’s not like it’s horrific movement, it’s just a bit meh, and I literally do not understand why they made the decision on the default control scheme for the map. [36:49.040 –> 36:51.040] Oh, that would ruin it for sure. [36:51.040 –> 36:53.040] Insane for me. [36:53.040 –> 36:54.040] Insane. [36:54.040 –> 36:58.040] Alright, cool. Let’s talk about farming, an important topic for us to discuss. [36:58.040 –> 37:00.040] We talk about that here? [37:00.040 –> 37:05.040] We talk about farming. Still, even though we’re not a farming game podcast, we still talk about farming games. [37:05.040 –> 37:11.040] We still talk about farming. Oh my word. Words. What are words? [37:12.040 –> 37:23.040] So, I guess, it’s quite a simple farming. You have these beds that you use, so you don’t have a plot of land that you hold. [37:23.040 –> 37:27.040] You just have these beds that you then plant a seed in. [37:27.040 –> 37:31.040] It’s kind of like when, I’m trying to think, what was the, was it Doraemon Story of Seasons? [37:31.040 –> 37:37.040] Where you plant one seed, or you buy a seed and you plant it and it’s like multiple seeds. [37:37.040 –> 37:39.040] Maybe, I don’t remember. [37:39.040 –> 37:46.040] You pay for potato seed and you get four potatoes out of it, right? So, that’s how it works. [37:46.040 –> 37:48.040] And then you water that and stuff. [37:48.040 –> 37:59.040] So, you can get a reasonable space of land. I think it starts out quite small, but you can expand across to the other bits of land. [37:59.040 –> 38:06.040] So, I think it’s a pretty decent amount, but if you want to keep things really low-key, you still can. [38:06.040 –> 38:11.040] I quite like the farming. It’s kind of simple, but I think it works quite well. [38:11.040 –> 38:13.040] Yeah. [38:13.040 –> 38:18.040] That reminds me, I do have a question for you. See when you’re going to water, how does it work on the Switch? [38:18.040 –> 38:28.040] Because how it works on the iPad is you go to it and then a little icon appears above the bed where you plant the seeds. [38:28.040 –> 38:35.040] And you have to press on the button to then select what you want to plant, and then you have to select the icon to then water. [38:35.040 –> 38:42.040] Does it work kind of like that, or is it more like a traditional farming game where you just press a button? [38:42.040 –> 38:47.040] Actually, let’s go back to the movement slash controls talk, because it’s just traditional. [38:47.040 –> 38:53.040] You go up to it and push A to say select the pot and then you… [38:53.040 –> 39:01.040] The icons are still there. I know the ones that are like little speech bubbles and you go between them using the joystick. [39:01.040 –> 39:04.040] Okay, I’m going to water, I’m going to plant, whatever, right? [39:04.040 –> 39:07.040] So the touch screen doesn’t work for pressing? [39:07.040 –> 39:11.040] Oh, I’ve been playing primarily on the dock, to be honest. I don’t know, I haven’t checked on the touch screen. [39:11.040 –> 39:17.040] I think I did use it briefly and I used it if the touch screen worked for something. [39:17.040 –> 39:22.040] Oh, in fact, there’s at lea

Look it's hard to keep up the panache after so many cases. People expect me to stand up and point and yell like I did in my youth, but I've just seen and done so much. I'm tired. I'm allowed to take it easy every once in a while. It's not complacency, it's self-care. Just because I say the word "objection" at a reasonable volume doesn't mean I don't mean it.Discussed: Phoenix Wright: The Ace Attorney Trilogy, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, Golden Sun, Golden Sun: The Lost Age, Golden Sun: Dark Dawn---Find us everywhere: https://intothecast.onlineJoin the Discord: https://theworstgarbage.onlineFollow Stephen Hilger: https://twitter.com/StephenHilgerFollow Brendon Bigley: https://twitter.com/brendonbigley---Produced by AJ Fillari: https://twitter.com/ajfillariSeason 4 Cover Art by Scout Wilkinson: https://scoutwilkinson.myportfolio.com/---Join the Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/intothecastThanks to all of our amazing patrons! | Kyle B | Nick L | WallyWoo | Cody D | Alex Z | Miles L | Mark E | Sid T | Jeffrey A | Anthony L | Trevor S | Sebastian G | Jacob M | sourorrin | Andrew C | X L | fingerbelly | CJ M | Miles D | Dominic G | Macy P | Callie BD | Jesse Y | Callan C | Zachary M | Thomas B | Joseph D | JC G | Nigel B | Ryan R | Sasha M | Jake L | Cody G | Derek N | peppc | Sam B | Jesse W | Coco N | Ronan B | Julia B | Douglas W | Kaelan T | Honshew | Dan | Gregory | Austin K | Tony D | Mike T | no name | Espen S | Shaun K | Michael C | Maarten G | Paige A | Katie | The Family Computers | Pearson B | Anna E | Codes | Jim VDH | Matt B | Andy M P | Wesley | Logan W | Laslie C | Charlie D | Erik B | Heath S | Marc H | Connor S | Adam V | Ronin W | William W III | Jonathan B | Will N | Mike | Brandon T | Daniel R | Adam L | David H H | Nick V | Mike K | Eric A-F | Judith S | Alejandro M | Susannah G | Mush | Al F | Mick W | Keith S | Markus W | AggressiveToast | Liam R | Pippin N | Matt M | Minh N | jorgamund | Butterfly Bandit | Naman B | Gabe O | Josh H | Bellspr00ut | Kite | Doug | Lasse B | Retromation | John Thomas F | Juanda | Adam L | Geocracy | George L | b0rt | Elen R | David D | Casey D-VA | Zach B | Alex L | Connor C | Jeff N | Baker S | Daniel M | Adam S | Sergio L | Kyle S | ninjadeathdog | Sous Chef Russell | Greg | Zachary G | Adnan S | Celia S | Chris P | Lukerfuffle | David O | Kelly | Rory B | Adam V | JTH | David M | Varsha S | Stumpy J | Verlinp | Matthew W | Andy S | evie  | A42PoundMoose | Sam T | Maxwell H | Robert M | Jonah K | Morgan M | Robb S | Owen P | Samuel H | Michael W | Andrew S | Tom | Mitchell J | Justin M | Will L | InterJustin | Evan H | Sam B | Robert O | Xavier K | Charlie E | Theresa N | Jamal M | Korey | Thomas W | Monte J | Liam M | Nick S | Jellums | Peter R | Jennifer S | Will H | Derek H | Brian D | Augusto D | Ethan K | Michael O | Brandon B | Peter H | Matt S | Albatross Soup | Noah H G | Christiaan S | Nick P | Ryan O | CosmicBluesMinis | Derek N | Megan T | Josiah R | Austin B | Kaija R | Khaleel G | Rowan | Sam S | Hunter F | Togame1 | JT | John H | Makenzie B | James O | SalivationArmy | Bishop_Tacos | Alex L | Dakota K | Ryan H | Blake M | Wanda S. | Scott T | Rachel L | Ian B | Onatah | Samuel H | Myles H | Wiley K | Moonstone5tella | garretsr  | Eric D | Latte709 | Phillip F | Charles S | The WolfeKnight | Patrick M | Michael N | Brigitte L | Lee R | James Y | Reuben J | John C | Anisa | Maurice  | Nick M | Trey L | Sam N | Madeleine  | Randal S | Matthew M | leigha | Michael N | Connor  | Garrett P | Justin W | Brendan K | Michaela  | Adam G | Sebastian P | Júlía H | Marc | Christopher S | Alanna O | Scott R | Jackson F | Megan B | Erika Y | Christopher D | Matt D | Sebastian E | Liam B | Meredith | wreck | Daniel C | Coop | Brian M | Richie | Alexander M | Andrew K | Roc B | Alex G | Dan O | Laura W | Roberto S | Leo C | Wishbone | saddlebread | Roberge | Ian A | Max M | Michael V | Kyle R | Selina A | Noah O | Rich E | Michael G | Arcturus | Raihan S | Matthew M | Rowan S | Chris R | leastest | Kyle L | Anthony G | Adam | The Binding of Andrew | Hepahe | Jake L | Conor P | Cory F | Luke L | Matt C | Cian | John J P | GJ C | Mr Mallard | Sarah G | Vanessa J | Jack F | Kelsey J | Chase A | Elyse H | Anna | Nick Q | Tom H | Wes K | Erica S | Maria D | Chris M | RB | Jared B | Toots M | Aaron D | David C | Karen H | Walter N B | Kristin T | Joseph P | Tom W | Chad W | Chy J-B | Michaela W | Ryan W | Adam F | Scott H | Denys T | Lauren H | Andrew M | Alexander St. P | Griffin F | Ben G | killian | Therese K | Matthew V | Nick C | Zach A | SpagooliDude | Andrew L | Justin H | Alyssa R | jgprinters  | Rob K | Justin C | Jess B | Matt H | bsushi | sebsab  | Lilie G | Ian L | Chris | Pat M | markh | Craig | Matt F | Sebastian V N | Joeri B | Maryanne D | SkinTightAlloy  | Dennis C | Eliot O B | Shelly B | William L | Brendon T | Robert S | Murray  | Trevor B | salutepeezy  | Andrew D | David P | Alex M | Catherine O | Josh G | noname  | Jason  | Bede R | Mark O | Jeff C | Brett S | Inês G. | Kim M | Kamrin H | Minh T | Andrew D | Marxelle  | Akira  | Christopher B | Melimuffinpie  | bolt  | Scout W | Philip N★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

All disputes shall be settled in court, with students acting as prosecutors and defense attorneys. To ensure this system runs fairly, certain students train in the arts of law, traveling from one school to another to take part in trials.   Accused of dismembering a beloved member of Tenbin Elementary's Class 6-3, Tento Nanahoshi finds himself in dire straits. Due to an established motive and foolproof evidence, the prosecutor prodigy Pine Hanzuki is sure to secure a conviction. Will Abaku Inugami, the transfer student sent to defend Tento, prevail against the odds, or will Tento be branded a criminal?   Illustrated by the artist of Death Note and Bakuman, Gakkyuu Houtei follows Inugami's efforts to exonerate his clients, utilizing his aptitude for "ronpa" —the ability to verbally destroy an opponent's argument.

Kole and Jala, at long last, continue their discussion of the Phoenix Wright series by taking a look at "Justice for All", the arguable sophomore slump of the series. Phoenix is back at the table, Miles is nowhere to be found, and we're instead facing off against the child prodigy Franziska von Karma. The cases are a little all over the place, but we welcome the addition of the Psyche Locks, which add much more interest to the investigation portions of the chapters.
