My Hero Academia's creator is heavily involved in the Netflix adaptation. WB is going to be sold to somebody, but maybe not the Saudis. Labubus are coming to the big screen via Sony.

This week Frank celebrates his birthday in the studio with Jon, keeps the vibes relaxed, and still manages to pack in a full slate of geek news and debates. The two kick things off with updates on Shogun Season 2, breaking down the ten year time jump, the politics of feudal Japan, and how Western audiences connect with Asian history and tropes on screen. From there they pivot to Valve's newly announced Steam Machine concept and what it means for the future of consoles, PC gaming, and cloud streaming. Then it is trailer time. Frank and John react to the new Fallout Season 2 trailer and its New Vegas setting, the Super Mario Galaxy movie trailer from Illumination, and the first official images from the live action Legend of Zelda movie. They also dig into Disney's Moana live action remake and use it as a springboard to talk about when fans want faithful recreations and when they actually want a fresh take. In the second half, Frank launches a new recurring bit called Shallow Dives, a timed debate game where one host takes a position and the other plays devil's advocate. Topics this round include whether physical media is really coming back, if critic and audience scores should be hidden for a movie's first week, and how central cosplay is to modern fandom. The episode wraps with recommendations for Welcome to Derry and a timely revisit of V for Vendetta. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 – Birthday intro, in person recording, and why this episode is more relaxed 01:00 – Shogun Season 2 news, ten year time jump, and how the show handles Japanese history and European trade politics 05:30 – Valve's new Steam Machine concept, console vs PC, and why price point might decide its fate 11:20 – Fallout Season 2 trailer reaction, New Vegas connections, Elvis ghoul Kings, and Macaulay Culkin's role 15:40 – Super Mario Galaxy movie trailer, Bowser in a jar, Bowser Jr, Rosalina, and Illumination's animation style and music 18:20 – First look at the live action Legend of Zelda movie and a deeper talk about faithful adaptations vs reinterpretations 24:00 – Moana live action trailer, shot for shot remakes, green screen fatigue, and who these remakes are really for 28:15 – Introducing Shallow Dives, the 5 minute debate game and how it might work at conventions 29:30 – Shallow Dive 1: Is physical media actually making a comeback or is streaming still king 35:00 – Shallow Dive 2: Should critic and audience scores be hidden for the first week of release 41:00 – Shallow Dive 3: Is cosplay a core part of fandom or its own parallel hobby 46:20 – Weekly recommendations: Welcome to Derry and why V for Vendetta still matters 48:10 – Wrap up and sign off Key Takeaways Shogun Season 2 will jump ten years into the Edo era, exploring what it means for Toranaga to not just conquer Japan but govern it while foreign powers like Portugal and Britain push for control. For Western viewers, Shogun can be a gateway into Asian history and storytelling, with Frank and John comparing it to Game of Thrones style politics filtered through a real world lens. Valve's new Steam Machine raises real questions about timing and audience, but John argues that if the device hits the right price and lives in the living room it could appeal to younger PC focused players and convention setups. The Fallout Season 2 trailer leans hard into New Vegas iconography, from Elvis themed ghoul factions to Roman inspired forces, while doubling down on the tension between Lucy's idealism and the brutal wasteland reality. The Super Mario Galaxy movie and the Zelda live action first look both seem to be chasing a very faithful visual style, keeping game aesthetics intact while polishing them for film, especially through music and world design. Moana's live action remake sparks a bigger conversation about when fans want a nearly shot for shot remake and when they want a reinterpretation, with both hosts skeptical about the flat, overly digital look of some recent remakes. In the Shallow Dives segment, the physical media debate lands on a nuanced middle ground: streaming is convenient, but physical and local digital collections still matter for ownership, longevity, and curation. The discussion about scores leads Frank to explain why Geek Freaks removed numeric ratings from posts, preferring to describe how a story feels instead of flattening it to a single number. On cosplay, both hosts agree that it might be its own fandom as much as a subset of any one property, but it absolutely boosts the sense of community and safety at cons by signaling "you are with your people." Memorable Quotes "I would rather put out a relaxed episode than no episode." "Each vault in Fallout is just a wild experiment, and that weirdness is the charm of the show." "Physical media might not be for everyone anymore, but owning a copy means nobody can pull it off your shelf overnight." "Reviews should tell you how a story makes you feel, not just slap a number on it." "Cosplay is like an instant signal that you are in a safe place to be as nerdy as you want."

In another social media announcement, LEGO and Nintendo showed off their second LEGO Zelda set, coming in 2026 and featuring Link battling Ganon from what looks like the end of Ocarina of Time-inspired scene.Beyond Nintendo, the guys dig into Valve's newly revealed Steam Box, Steam Controller, and Steam Frame, the next evolution of their gaming hardware ecosystem. They discuss how these new devices integrate with the Steam Deck, how Valve's hardware lineup will stack up against what Nintendo is doing with Switch 2, and how it compares to Microsoft's current "Play Anywhere" strategy.Plus, Atari opened pre-orders for RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition, getting a physical Switch release via Limited Run Games in March 2026.

In episode 204 of Film Focus, today, I return with my thoughts on the first trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. A few days ago, Nintendo held a short Nintendo Direct to show off the new trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, along with the announcement of who would be voicing Rosalina and Bowser Jr. As you may know from two previous podcast episodes, I love Mario Galaxy and think there's a lot of potential for this sequel if they play their cards right. However, there are also some reasons to be concerned. In this episode, I'll discuss some specifics, and I hope you'll enjoy our brief conversation.

Su obra filosófica entiende la esencia femenina a la luz del fundamento de la vocación divina del hombre y la mujer. La vida de esta mujer está marcada por una constante búsqueda de la verdad y ver en el sufrimiento un significado de abandono en Dios.

Robin and Rosalina react to the Indiana Fever's bold new marketing campaign.
Welcome to the next episode of Evie Unbounded
In the natural reserve of Rosalina Mare, Italy, we walk up from the beach, where we can hear crashing waves, moving up a sandy path where we can hear the gentle, low sounds of insects and birds in the early evening. Recorded by Cities and Memory.
Just three years after Thomas Keir told everyone that his first wife Jean left him and their young son behind to be with another man, his second wife Rosalina was found dead and severely burned on her bed. Keir's claims to be unlucky and grief-stricken were questioned by investigators as well as family, friends, and […] The post The Two Wives of Thomas Keir appeared first on Tiegrabber.

My name is Cody (0:00:36) Jonnie: My name is Johnny. (0:00:37) Codey: And we are here today to talk about cottagecore games (0:00:42) Jonnie: Whoooo! (0:00:45) Codey: Okay, I’m not gonna ask Johnny how he’s doing cuz we’re that’ll just get us right into the issue so the issue at hand (0:00:54) Codey: So I’m going to first mention today’s topic is what game what games we think shouldn’t (0:01:00) Codey: Include farming. So these are games that do not have like big farming components or there (0:01:06) Codey: It’s like a series that has not had a farming game (0:01:10) Codey: Specifically that we think are like ripe for the plucking (0:01:15) Codey: So that’s what we’re gonna talk about we also have a bunch of game news (0:01:19) Codey: And then we’re I’m gonna talk about what I’ve been up to but Johnny does not want to talk about what he’s been up (0:01:26) Codey: To he has something else to talk about (0:01:28) Jonnie: Well, that’s because I haven’t had time to play games because I’ve been raging about last week’s episode (0:01:35) Jonnie: uh where Kev and Al made a (0:01:39) Jonnie: Tier list and I’m hoping you can hear the finger quotes that I was making when I said that they made a tier list (0:01:41) Codey: Uh-huh. (0:01:43) Codey: I did. (0:01:46) Codey: I did hear those finger calling. (0:01:46) Jonnie: because (0:01:48) Jonnie: I’m sorry guys. But what was that? That was a terrible tier list first of all. Okay. I am a tier list purist (0:01:56) Jonnie: I feel like so many tearless now, they just… (0:01:58) Jonnie: …people undermine the purpose of having an S-Tear. (0:02:02) Jonnie: S-Tear is meant to be for the elite. (0:02:05) Jonnie: You cannot have 20 characters in S-Tear. (0:02:05) Codey: Yeah. (0:02:09) Jonnie: Which I don’t know how many they put in, but it was a lot. (0:02:12) Jonnie: There were too many S-Tear characters. (0:02:12) Codey: Yeah. (0:02:14) Jonnie: Are you a purist when it comes to tearless Cody like me? (0:02:17) Codey: I, yeah, I think that like, so from listening to the episode I didn’t have any strong feelings but I did feel like there were some people that they put in the S tier that I felt like they were more, they felt more strongly about and like that’s the situation where like, that’s like, those should be the people (0:02:35) Codey: in their own tier, or like in a tier above S tier or something or like bump everyone else down to A I’m not entirely sure how they want to work on that but as it stands like it was just kind of, I mean, I didn’t necessarily disagree with where they put a lot (0:02:51) Codey: of people, but I agreed with some of the sentiment talked about in the slack. So what what were those sentiments. (0:02:58) Jonnie: And so, like, so first of all, too many in S-Tear. Agree with you, Coda. You bump everyone down. (0:03:05) Jonnie: Also, no F-Tear. Like, Stardew Valley has F-Tear characters. It’s very clear. (0:03:05) Codey: Correct. (0:03:07) Codey: Yeah. (0:03:12) Jonnie: A tier list is not about being nice and making friends. (0:03:15) Jonnie: A, these are digital characters. Who cares? (0:03:17) Jonnie: And B, who’s saying that Demetrius, Pan, and, uh, (0:03:22) Jonnie: Mayor Lewis are not F-Tear. They’re my personal F-Tear characters. Uh, like, they are F-Tear. (0:03:28) Jonnie: No D. Add an F-Tear. (0:03:29) Codey: Okay. (0:03:31) Jonnie: Oh. (0:03:32) Codey: Yeah. (0:03:33) Codey: Well, and I feel like they would have, the boys, (0:03:35) Codey: I mean, Kevin and Al are probably like, (0:03:38) Codey: they think Clint is F-tier. (0:03:40) Codey: Like I was shocked that they didn’t use F-tier for that. (0:03:44) Jonnie: Oh, so Clint is below F tier. Clint is in Clint tier. (0:03:48) Jonnie: I have done my own tier list, which I have put into the Slack, so if you are interested (0:03:53) Jonnie: in seeing a real tier list, patreon.com/dhspart. (0:03:54) Codey: Yeah. (0:03:59) Jonnie: I don’t know, maybe Al can link my tier list in the show notes for this one, because I (0:04:03) Jonnie: feel like it’s a much better tier list. It’s soon to be officially endorsed by the show. (0:04:08) Codey: Yeah. (0:04:09) Jonnie: It’s just objectively, objectively better. (0:04:12) Jonnie: But I even feel like some of the (0:04:14) Jonnie: choices of who they put into S-Tear is just like confusing. (0:04:19) Jonnie: So my personal S-Tear, just to be clear, is Hayley, Linus, and Willy. (0:04:25) Jonnie: Right? (0:04:25) Jonnie: For me, they’re the three characters with the most story that, not that I relate to, (0:04:32) Jonnie: that’s the wrong word, but that I feel some attachment to the story, right? (0:04:36) Jonnie: And each person, I’m sure, would have different characters that they would put in there. (0:04:40) Jonnie: I’m sure everyone would probably have Linus. (0:04:44) Jonnie: Who’s, when I’m saying like, “What do I like about the characters in the game?” (0:04:49) Jonnie: Like, those are the stories that I’m most going to refer to. (0:04:52) Jonnie: And like, that’s independent, right? (0:04:54) Jonnie: Like, the character I probably romance, or have romance the most across the game is Leah. (0:04:59) Jonnie: But Leah is like a solid B-Tear character, you know? (0:04:59) Codey: Yeah, I was going to say. (0:05:02) Codey: Wow. (0:05:03) Jonnie: She’s fine, but boring, so she’s a B-Tear character. (0:05:05) Codey: Yeah. (0:05:07) Codey: I guess like that was the other thing is that they were going off of like how they thought the characters were. (0:05:13) Codey: It was unclear to me how the grading was because they were like, no, no, like not how we feel that they are as a character that has been created but who they are as people. (0:05:25) Codey: and that’s like kind of difficult to judge because (0:05:29) Codey: you’re getting like the one-sided situation from a lot of these people (0:05:33) Codey: like I don’t know clint’s backstory I don’t know I don’t know who hurt him you know (0:05:38) Jonnie: Clint hurt Clint. It’s all his own fault. (0:05:43) Codey: oh no (0:05:44) Jonnie: And that’s why he gets Clinted. That’s why he gets Clinted here. (0:05:47) Jonnie: Um… (0:05:49) Jonnie: Uh… (0:05:50) Jonnie: Do I have anything else to say about the… (0:05:52) Jonnie: Oh, look, I feel like the other thing that really stood out to me on the tier list is (0:05:58) Jonnie: there’s like a little snip that I took of S-tier (0:06:00) Jonnie: that has Jodie, Leah, Robin, and Penny all together. (0:06:00) Codey: Yeah. (0:06:06) Jonnie: I just, I don’t want to know, you know, if there’s- (0:06:08) Jonnie: there’s maybe a sort of similar visual style between those four characters. (0:06:12) Jonnie: Um, I’m just gonna let that one- (0:06:12) Codey: Uh-huh, perhaps perhaps all with a certain hair color perhaps (0:06:20) Jonnie: Right? Right? (0:06:25) Codey: Yeah, I I didn’t even think about that until you showed me you showed me the picture and I was like, oh no (0:06:27) Jonnie: But to be honest, right. (0:06:35) Jonnie: And it’s just funny because the way they put it in the t- (0:06:35) Codey: They’re all (0:06:38) Jonnie: list that they were just all together with Linus sort of hanging out in the middle and I was like, “Yeah, it’s just Linus and his lady, sir.” (0:06:42) Codey: Yeah! (0:06:44) Jonnie: Just hanging out. (0:06:46) Codey: Linus and his four redheads, yeah. (0:06:48) Jonnie: Yup. (0:06:50) Jonnie: But to be honest, this is why I like tier lists, right? (0:06:54) Jonnie: Like one, people have different approaches. (0:06:56) Jonnie: And I think people do tend towards being too nice. (0:06:58) Jonnie: And it’s like, we’re just going to, you know, push things up above where they need to be, which I would like to see people move away from. (0:07:04) Jonnie: away from, but it generates (0:07:08) Jonnie: good discussion right because it’s it’s one of those things where it’s like (0:07:11) Jonnie: actually the act of going through that it’s kind of or through creating my (0:07:15) Jonnie: own tier list it’s thinking about like what what is it that I like about (0:07:18) Jonnie: characters in games and I think when I look at my (0:07:23) Jonnie: s tier the thing that I it’s like I like characters that (0:07:26) Jonnie: uh go on journeys and have probably relatable but not wholly positive (0:07:32) Jonnie: stories right like um all three of the characters i (0:07:38) Jonnie: have like uh challenges or or negative aspects (0:07:42) Jonnie: but but overall their stories are a positive ones (0:07:45) Jonnie: um or or about kind of like I guess different perspectives (0:07:49) Jonnie: um on things so anyway that was that was the thing I learned about myself (0:07:53) Jonnie: from uh from doing the tier list um I also just put all of the the minor (0:07:57) Jonnie: characters and dekes i’m like how do you rate the bouncer which you know (0:08:00) Jonnie: kev was keeps keeps him to have a real love for the bouncer (0:08:02) Codey: Yeah, yeah, Kev was like S tier immediately and I was like this bro has two lines my guy (0:08:06) Jonnie: - Oh. (0:08:10) Jonnie: laughing Right? (0:08:12) Codey: Or like the dwarf like all of these people that like you don’t really see that much of (0:08:18) Codey: And I don’t have enough information to make an educated guess (0:08:21) Codey: I think it would be so another thing is that I haven’t really personally gotten into a lot of the like (0:08:27) Codey: Backstory of a lot of the characters in Stardew Valley, but I have been doing that for Coral Island (0:08:32) Codey: I’d love to make an S a list for Coral Island. I would get heated about that for sure (0:08:38) Jonnie: I feel like that sounds like a great idea for an episode, and I know immediately that we would disagree on some characters. (0:08:42) Codey: Yeah (0:08:46) Codey: HAHAHA! (0:08:46) Jonnie: Because if I remember rightly, you are a fan of Scott, and I think he is like the driest possible character in that entire game. (0:08:55) Codey: I am very close to marrying Scott right now. (0:09:03) Jonnie: Ahh… (0:09:03) Codey: So I was, so I guess we’ll move forward (0:09:08) Codey: into what I have been up to. (0:09:10) Codey: On top of tearing my calf muscle, (0:09:14) Codey: I have also, that has given rise (0:09:16) Codey: to a lot of time of sitting down, (0:09:19) Codey: which means I can play games, which is great. (0:09:24) Codey: I’ve been playing Disney Dreamlight Valley still, (0:09:26) Codey: trying to get like 100% on a lot of the achievements. (0:09:29) Codey: Right now I’m trying to finish off the critters. (0:09:31) Codey: I only have two more critters. (0:09:33) Codey: And I actually, it’s a big tip (0:09:35) Codey: for people who are playing Stardew Valley (0:09:37) Codey: and who are looking for certain critters. (0:09:39) Codey: You, each critter like comes out at a specific day (0:09:44) Codey: at a specific time. (0:09:45) Codey: So like the two things that I want, (0:09:47) Codey: which I think are like the pink crocodile (0:09:49) Codey: and the red fox are both on Saturdays. (0:09:54) Codey: I usually don’t play on Saturdays. (0:09:57) Codey: So that’s why I don’t have them yet. (0:09:59) Codey: But they both come out on Saturday (0:10:01) Codey: and they come out at different times (0:10:02) Codey: and they have different, (0:10:03) Codey: like all the critters have different requirements. (0:10:05) Codey: Like the crocodiles want a certain, (0:10:07) Codey: like lobster is their favorite (0:10:08) Codey: and the foxes want sturgeon or whatever it is. (0:10:13) Codey: And so I finally just looked all of that up (0:10:15) Codey: because I had realized that they were only there (0:10:19) Codey: at certain times. (0:10:20) Codey: And so I was like, okay. (0:10:21) Codey: And when you go into the game, (0:10:24) Codey: you can look at the critter page (0:10:25) Codey: and it’ll be like, not here today. (0:10:27) Codey: Like this one’s not here today. (0:10:30) Codey: But I was like going online (0:10:32) Codey: and I was just never seeing them around. (0:10:34) Codey: And so I finally was just like, screw it. (0:10:36) Codey: I’m Googling it. (0:10:37) Codey: And I found out it’s Saturday. (0:10:38) Codey: So tomorrow is going to be lit for me. (0:10:41) Codey: I’m hoping to get both solidified. (0:10:43) Codey: That’d be awesome. (0:10:45) Jonnie: Can I ask, when you say you’re 100%ing all of the achievements, is that including the like, you know, harvest 10,000 blueberry achievements, like all of those things? (0:10:56) Codey: I already have that I already have those the one that I it is the one that I don’t have (0:10:58) Jonnie: Oh my god. (0:11:00) Jonnie: Cody? (0:11:02) Jonnie: It’s a lot! (0:11:05) Codey: right now that’s really frustrating is like water 7000 plant crops because I have water (0:11:12) Codey: like so I would plant for a long time I was planting when it was raining so it’s super (0:11:17) Codey: simple and you can just literally plant like wheat and then harvest like by the time you’re (0:11:22) Codey: done planting like a little like eight by eight square. (0:11:26) Codey: it’s already like ready on the other side so then you just go back to harvesting and then you just (0:11:30) Codey: go plant again. um but one of them is to water 7000 plants and so now i’m having to plant all (0:11:38) Codey: this stuff that I don’t care about uh just so that I can but it’s fine because there’s another (0:11:43) Codey: achievement where you’re supposed to buy seeds buy like 600 seeds or something from each of the (0:11:50) Codey: biomes and I think I still need to buy like another 300 seeds from the Glade of Trust so (0:11:54) Codey: I need to buy seats anyway. (0:11:56) Codey: It’s fine, I almost have all of this stuff for the gosh, what was the Tiana DLC called? (0:12:05) Codey: I don’t remember, but it’s the one that like brought in Tiana and a bunch of her furniture (0:12:12) Codey: and wardrobe stuff. (0:12:14) Codey: I’ve almost completed that star path and have everything that you get from that. (0:12:20) Codey: I think it still has a couple days, so I’m going to hope that that’s true because then (0:12:24) Codey: And I think that they’re gonna start like a spooky– (0:12:26) Codey: Halloween path–star path. (0:12:28) Jonnie: Do you get anything for completing all of the achievements other than, like, there was (0:12:34) Codey: No. It’s that currency. Yeah, you get like the dreamlight. I have like almost 100,000 dreamlight. (0:12:43) Codey: You which you use dreamlight to either to like unlock new realm. So like when they open whatever (0:12:50) Codey: the next realm is, let’s say it’s hocus pocus. If they unlock the hocus pocus realm, and then you (0:12:56) Codey: have to go to the castle and like open the door, the gateway to that realm, that’s like where you (0:13:01) Codey: use the dreamlight. (0:13:04) Codey: and usually the doors only need like 10,000 and I have almost 100,000. (0:13:09) Codey: yeet. (0:13:10) Jonnie: One last question because I feel like you and I are sort of the DTV correspondence on the show and I haven’t played since, you know, you and I, I think last talked about it, and that was, you know, when the story finished and I hit credits on the game, how do you feel the game is going in terms of, like, is it kind of just adding new stuff and mini stories and it’s kind of just like, if you’re into it, it’s good or like, is the game expanding beyond that? (0:13:14) Codey: yeah. (0:13:17) Codey: oh yeah. (0:13:21) Codey: mm-hmm. (0:13:21) Codey: yeah. (0:13:40) Jonnie: Or is it that you need to play it, you know, with the style paths as they’re coming out? Like, what’s, what’s your current take on state of the game for maybe someone that dabbled in it a little bit when it was an early access or something like that? Where are you at? (0:13:47) Codey: Yeah, so I would say the star paths are important if you’re interested in collecting all of (0:13:59) Codey: the like outfits and furniture things. (0:14:04) Codey: I thought that the dapper delights I think is actually what it’s called star path that (0:14:09) Codey: has a lot of Tiana stuff. (0:14:11) Codey: I really liked all a lot of the stuff that was in that star path so and also just from (0:14:16) Codey: playing consistently. (0:14:17) Codey: have a ton of moonlight, or moonstone, or whatever the heck it’s called. (0:14:21) Codey: So, you know, paying 2,500 moonstone to, which I’ve never had to pay real money. (0:14:28) Codey: I always just get it for free by playing the game. (0:14:32) Codey: Paying 2,500 moonstone to get access to the full star path was a no brainer for me. (0:14:38) Codey: But that’s really what the star paths are good for, is just the furniture, the wardrobes, (0:14:46) Codey: that kind of thing. (0:14:47) Codey: And so if you’re really not into that, the star paths are not necessary. (0:14:53) Codey: Every time they release a star path, they kind of have been releasing a new character (0:14:58) Codey: along with it. (0:14:59) Codey: But you don’t have to do the star path, you can just come and be like “I wanna meet Tiana,” (0:15:03) Codey: or “I wanna meet Mulan,” or whatever. (0:15:05) Codey: But also I don’t think that that content goes away. (0:15:07) Codey: I don’t think that if you miss when Mulan shows up, that you’re not gonna get to ever (0:15:13) Codey: meet Mulan. (0:15:14) Codey: It’s just that you’re probably not going to get immediate access to the site. (0:15:17) Codey: I’m assuming that they’ll become available like through the store, but that’s, um, like through, uh, Scrooge’s store, but you can’t pick what shows up there. (0:15:29) Codey: It just kind of like randomly goes through a bunch of stuff. (0:15:33) Codey: So if you’re wanting something specific, you kind of just have to like, um, and then the achievements, I mean, there’s no purpose. (0:15:40) Codey: I did this with World of Warcraft too. (0:15:42) Codey: Um, I just went and like pet all of the critters and did all of the silly stuff. (0:15:47) Codey: Just because it, seeing little achievements like being done just makes my dopamine skyrocket. (0:15:55) Codey: So that’s, that’s, that it’s not necessary at all. (0:16:00) Codey: So if it’s, if you’re like, not really sure, or if you’re not really tied to any of these characters, (0:16:04) Codey: or if you don’t super care, like I would just wait for a big content update or something. (0:16:09) Codey: Um, I’m assuming eventually this like rift in time thing will just become free to play and you won’t have to like, (0:16:16) Codey: to like because it’s a paid deal. (0:16:17) Codey: You’ll see currently, but, um, and it has like, it adds a whole nother dimension (0:16:22) Codey: cause it adds a whole extra tool. (0:16:26) Codey: Um, which I think messes with time, but I have not even, since I don’t have that, (0:16:32) Codey: I haven’t even unlocked any of that stuff yet. (0:16:34) Codey: And I think it also adds multiple characters that I again, don’t have access (0:16:39) Codey: to, but I’m not really that worried about it. (0:16:41) Jonnie: nice it’s good to hear like it feels like they’re developing that game in a really positive way (0:16:41) Codey: So yeah. (0:16:43) Codey: Yeah. (0:16:47) Jonnie: but also a way that kind of you know ultimately these games are you know need to make money so (0:16:53) Jonnie: it sounds like they’re striking that balance in a in a healthy way which not many games do these days (0:16:56) Codey: Yeah (0:16:58) Codey: Yeah, I definitely agree. I think the other thing (0:17:04) Codey: So the other thing I’ve been playing is coral island and last time al and I talked about coral island we were talking about 1.1 (0:17:11) Codey: And I we talked about like the different things that 1.1 brought and how we didn’t get to any of them (0:17:18) Codey: so I finally got to give the mer people what they (0:17:25) Codey: which was like five osmium (0:17:26) Codey: crops and five osmium essences and then once you give that to them it basically (0:17:32) Codey: like allows you to get a tail and and then the moving around in the underwater (0:17:38) Codey: area is so fast so that’s great after that they then ask for you to bring them (0:17:47) Codey: 75 osmium crops and 30 osmium essences and that’s where I’m currently stuck (0:17:54) Codey: because I like can’t go into a (0:17:56) Codey: bunch of the buildings because they’re like you’re not allowed in here and (0:17:59) Codey: stuff like that like just getting a tail doesn’t mean that they all (0:18:01) Codey: automatically accept you but that also means that I need to like harvest 75 (0:18:07) Codey: osmium crops I finally have improved a lot of my stuff to be able to do that (0:18:12) Codey: but whatever I’m in my second year now and I almost have most of the lake shrine (0:18:19) Codey: like temple like finished but I’m not entirely sure like how much I can really (0:18:25) Codey: do without. (0:18:26) Codey: Like getting the very specific fish that you can only get in the first seven days of fall. (0:18:33) Codey: That kind of stuff, but I’m really enjoying coral island right now. Like I that’s that has (0:18:37) Codey: my full attention really except for tomorrow when it’s going to be Disney dream my about. (0:18:43) Jonnie: Yeah, I’ve been thinking about maybe jumping back into Coral Island now at one point. (0:18:48) Codey: Yeah, so yeah, that’s what we’ve been up to. (0:18:54) Codey: So we’re going to jump into game news here. The first thing on our list that Al has procured for (0:18:59) Codey: us is Fey Farm, which is coming to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, (0:19:10) Codey: and the Windows Store. So I guess that’s it’s only been on Switch and Steam, yeah? Question mark. (0:19:18) Jonnie: Sure, why not? (0:19:19) Codey: Okay. It does say… okay, I should just read more. That’s gonna happen on the 22nd of October, (0:19:31) Codey: and on the Twitter post that they posted a quote, “The new versions will include all content up to (0:19:37) Codey: date and full cross-play with the existing PC and Nintendo Switch edition.” So yeah, currently it’s (0:19:43) Codey: on PC and Nintendo Switch, and you’ll be able to cross-play with everything. (0:19:49) Codey: So if you’re wanting it, if you’ve been like, “Oh man, I’ve been waiting for it (0:19:53) Codey: on PlayStation or Xbox, like here’s your time.” Did you play Fey Farm? I can’t remember. I think (0:19:58) Codey: you were mad at it, right? (0:19:58) Jonnie: Yeah, well I like how Fae Farm plays as a game. There’s lots of good quality of life stuff that (0:20:06) Jonnie: they do. The movement is very fun. Unfortunately, the quest story world… it wasn’t there for me. (0:20:15) Jonnie: And you know, it was so far away that I didn’t really have any desire to go back. I know they’ve (0:20:20) Jonnie: done a number of updates on it. So I think if you’re someone who more… you’re just like, (0:20:26) Jonnie: I like farming, I like doing that sort of stuff. (0:20:29) Jonnie: I think this is a very good game for that. (0:20:32) Jonnie: If, like me, you prefer more of a story narrative to your games, this is not one too satisfying. (0:20:40) Codey: Well, maybe that’s something maybe that’s next after console not what (0:20:46) Jonnie: Well, they did some work on it, but it was just that the characters were so bland that (0:20:53) Codey: Oh, I remember this, mm-hmm. (0:20:54) Jonnie: it just felt like it was, yeah, it was just so far away that I know that I’ve done some (0:20:58) Jonnie: work on it, but it’s like some work on it would maybe get it to a point where it’s (0:21:02) Jonnie: acceptable. (0:21:03) Jonnie: It felt, to me, it felt like it needed a huge overhaul and there was a lot of, like, some (0:21:08) Jonnie: of the major quests in the game, it would kind of, you would get to an important point (0:21:12) Jonnie: and it would be like, “And you went and did the thing!” and then you wake up the next (0:21:16) Jonnie: “Oh, okay, I would kind of like to see me doing the thing, that would be, that would be cool!” (0:21:22) Codey: Would have been cool, I don’t know, maybe. (0:21:26) Codey: Okay, well maybe that’ll come later. (0:21:30) Codey: Next on our list is My Time at Evershine, (0:21:34) Codey: which I did not remember this game, (0:21:37) Codey: so my brain thought that this was Ranch of River Shine, (0:21:42) Codey: which I think was the horse game. (0:21:45) Codey: This is not that. (0:21:46) Codey: Next, my time game, so my time at Portia, my time at Sandrock, this is the third installment of that. (0:21:52) Codey: So the Kickstarter is now live and there is a new fancy trailer. (0:21:58) Codey: The Kickstarter goal was $200,000 and that goal was hit in 35 minutes. (0:22:06) Codey: They then unlocked $500,000 in 3 hours, $800,000 in 11 hours, (0:22:14) Codey: And then, uh, 20– (0:22:16) Codey: 26 hours was when they reached a million, and at the time–let me see if it’s changed drastically since I looked. (0:22:24) Codey: Uh, yep, it’s–it did. It went up 30 more thousand dollars. (0:22:28) Codey: Um, it is at almost 1.3 million dollars right now. Wild. (0:22:32) Codey: And it still has quite a way to go. (0:22:33) Jonnie: Yeah (0:22:36) Jonnie: It’s it’s pretty nuts, but this is one of those things that I feel like is (0:22:42) Jonnie: Just generally good right like I think in general around here (0:22:47) Jonnie: we’re not huge fans of these games, but they clearly have their fans and (0:22:53) Jonnie: They obviously my time at Sandrock landed because my time at ever shine got funded so well and I feel like (0:23:01) Jonnie: You know looking at the trailer for my time (0:23:03) Jonnie: Like it looks like a good next iteration on this formula that is (0:23:10) Codey: Mm-hmm. Yeah, um it and they’ve got a lot of stretch goals that they hit as well (0:23:16) Codey: Um, so at 200 i’m just going to go through these rapid fire (0:23:19) Codey: Um, 200 000 was an in-game t-shirt for all backers 250 was uh flirting (0:23:26) Codey: Uh to build emotional connections with npc’s faster. Okay, uh, 300 000 you got the bathtub (0:23:35) Codey: Okay. 400,000 was player voted interaction so it’s a new. (0:23:40) Codey: Romance interaction players can design and vote on their favorite designs interesting looks like some options might be hug or I can’t see that picture very well hug or something else for romance 500,000. (0:23:54) Jonnie: And it looks like maybe a kiss. (0:23:56) Codey: Okay, disgusting at 500. (0:24:00) Codey: It was you unlock they unlocked voting for someone a character from either my time at Portia or my time at Sandrock that can vote. (0:24:11) Codey: So it would be a character that would come into ever shine 600,000 was swimming 700,000 was hot springs 800,000 was a new special pet Oh, they got me players can submit their designs are taking people’s designs 900,000 was a pajama set million was 10 new photo poses and then they put they had hidden goals and of course those goals are unlocked at this point so we have to do that as well. (0:24:40) Codey: We have the hidden goal of log on will will be Logan Logan will be visiting my time. I don’t know. Is this Logan a character a good character from (0:24:46) Jonnie: - Logan. (0:24:53) Codey: The thing. (0:24:54) Jonnie: I don’t know. (0:24:55) Codey: Okay. (0:24:56) Jonnie: It looks like it’s, (0:24:56) Jonnie: I’m assuming it’s a character from my time at Samurai. (0:24:59) Codey: Okay. Yeah, he has like a cowboy hat thing and then a visitor from the past the builder from Sandrock will visit settlement to with Logan for a story quest, you’ll be able to tweak their appearance name and really. (0:25:11) Codey: To get the desired effect. So that is where we currently that’s it. (0:25:15) Codey: I think we’ve already got that. No, no, wait, it’s not clear to be what’s going on with this goal thing. I think it is. Yeah. So at 1.2 million was that and we were already, we’re already at that at 1.4 million the stretch goal, you can now adjust your height cue the that should have been option thing and then so that was what we’re still going for and at 1.7 million is another romance. (0:25:40) Codey: Yeah, not gonna play this but cool. (0:25:41) Jonnie: Look, I keep thinking about whether or not I want to try my time at Samrock just to see (0:25:47) Jonnie: what they’re doing, so I’m not going to commit to not playing this. (0:25:54) Codey: I don’t know it gives me like when I watch the trailer, it’s giving like final fantasy vibes and I I didn’t like final fantasy internet come at me. Okay. (0:26:04) Jonnie: I don’t say that I don’t like Final Fantasy because I’ve never played Final Fantasy. (0:26:09) Codey: Okay. (0:26:10) Codey: cool. This is a safe space. (0:26:14) Codey: Next up is light year frontier. They have a new neighbors and animals update. (0:26:21) Codey: So this is an update that will that is out now actually, it became available out a couple days after we’re recording but it will be out by the time this comes out. (0:26:32) Codey: A big question a lot of people had is if they have save files already is that going to work with a new update it will 100% so you’re. (0:26:40) Codey: They will just like if you have an early access save it will just merge right into the new update. I believe this is also a free update, which is cool. (0:26:51) Jonnie: Ah yeah, so like, yeah Frank, if I remember rightly, is still in demo. (0:26:55) Codey: Yeah. Oh, no, no, it’s in early access now. (0:26:59) Codey: Early access and it has a demo, but the demo is trying to see it the demo itself is coming down on October 8 so you. (0:27:10) Codey: Yeah, so you can get if you buy it, then you can access it now and play it now, but if you have I don’t think that you’re safe from the demo goes over I think it’s your save from early access. (0:27:22) Codey: So the demo was just like a small like if you can just play it for free and see how you like it, but then if you buy it as an early access game, then you’ll get access to this update and whatever file you have will move on to the update. (0:27:38) Codey: This update is including, so it’s called. (0:27:40) Codey: Neighbors and animals, so the neighbors, uh, you invite two new characters, um, to (0:27:46) Codey: your area and it’s a rancher named Diane who of course helps you with the animals. (0:27:51) Codey: Um, and a field research scientist, uh, named all, it doesn’t really say what (0:27:57) Codey: exactly he is, but he does, he helps you like splice seeds together. (0:28:02) Codey: Um, and he has flowers in his beard and I love that. (0:28:06) Jonnie: Yeah, I tried Lightyear Frontier, it didn’t really grab me, I guess this is, I think if you were enjoying Lightyear Frontier, this sounds great, but it doesn’t seem like a huge uptake from my perspective. (0:28:15) Codey: Yeah I think like it’s just a little bit of extra like a couple characters and (0:28:24) Codey: then the animals but other than that I don’t I also don’t really think this is (0:28:28) Codey: adding that much and I am not a fan of space so. Next on our list is Stardew (0:28:37) Codey: Valley. 1.6 is now coming to mobile and switch on the fourth of. (0:28:45) Codey: and concerned ape said quote the console and mobile ports will release at version (0:28:52) Codey: 1.6.9 which will also come to PC around that time. I’m looking forward to having (0:28:58) Codey: 1.6 fully released on all platforms then I would like to finish Haunted (0:29:04) Codey: Chocolate to your next. Thank you. Correct. Correct. So yeah if you (0:29:06) Jonnie: I will believe it when I see it. (0:29:08) Jonnie: Sorry, in reference to haunted chocolate yet not 1.6 coming to mobile. (0:29:16) Codey: console and mobile ports for that are coming out super cool November 4th and so (0:29:22) Codey: if you’ve been waiting to jump back in until that it’s it’s gonna I also like (0:29:27) Codey: how it’s like not only coming to console and mobile at that point but it’s also (0:29:31) Codey: just going straight to like the most updated version and so it’s not like oh (0:29:37) Codey: some are gonna be at 1.6.2 and some are gonna like or anything like that like (0:29:40) Codey: everyone is going to be up to date at the same time. I really like that. (0:29:45) Codey: Next we have paleopines. So there are two upcoming DLCs. The trick-or-treat DLC and (0:29:53) Codey: the spooktacular DLC. We’re getting into spooky season y’all. For trick-or-treat, (0:30:00) Codey: quote, “This DLC is all about a brand new nighttime adventure. Explore paleopines after dark, collect (0:30:06) Codey: treats from your townsfolk pals, and uncover a mysterious trickster who’s up to no good. (0:30:12) Codey: there’s even a cool minigame award off (0:30:15) Codey: some rewards and a chance to befriend some spooky colored dinos that look like (0:30:20) Codey: they’ve crawled straight out of a Halloween movie. I don’t think that (0:30:24) Codey: they’ve put pictures of this up. Oop there’s a trailer video I’m gonna watch (0:30:29) Codey: it now because just come out of a Halloween movie like I don’t know what (0:30:35) Codey: Halloween movies y’all are watching but if a dinosaur came out looking like what (0:30:40) Codey: I would expect coming out of a Halloween movie it would be a little gory (0:30:45) Codey: cuz I watched yeah okay so I just saw one of them was a dinosaur with a pumpkin on (0:30:46) Jonnie: Yeah, I’m guessing these are going to be a little bit cuter. (0:30:52) Codey: its head that is actually adorable unfortunately and then spooktacular DLC (0:31:03) Codey: quote want to make your ranch the spookiest place on the block the (0:31:06) Codey: spooktacular DLC has everything you need decorate your land with spooky scarecrows (0:31:11) Codey: bubbling cauldrons and more you can even get in on the fun with some fang (0:31:15) Codey: fantastic thing thing vampire hot outfits for your rancher dress up and (0:31:21) Codey: show off the Halloween spirit okay so that is more like I don’t know why these (0:31:26) Codey: are they at different times why are there two why are why are they why are (0:31:29) Jonnie: Who knows? Who knows? (0:31:31) Codey: they (0:31:32) Jonnie: Because more DLC means more money. (0:31:33) Codey: it’s true well I thought that okay I don’t know they’re cute though if you (0:31:39) Codey: like paleopines and you’re just looking for more skins and cute minigames and (0:31:44) Codey: stuff, let’s come out. (0:31:45) Codey: Okay, I feel like this is the one that’s going to take a lot (0:31:49) Codey: of our, a lot of our time, unless you don’t have too much (0:31:53) Codey: to talk about it. But I assume you do. Last but certainly not (0:31:56) Codey: least, tales of the Shire. So on September 22, it was Hobbit Day, (0:32:02) Codey: because correct me if I’m wrong, that is Bilbo and his uncle’s (0:32:09) Codey: birthday. No, Bilbo and thank you Frodo and Bilbo’s birthday. (0:32:10) Jonnie: Ah, photo of Bilbo’s birthday? (0:32:15) Codey: So that came out on Hobbit Day and it was a 18 minute trailer. (0:32:18) Codey: It was super cute. What did you think about the trailer? (0:32:22) Jonnie: I don’t think there was anything new revealed in the trailer or in the in the showcase, I think it was mostly just new like more detail on stuff we already knew, so there wasn’t a ton, I think that I have to say about it, other than putting a bunch of New Zealanders to speak on camera is like the worst possible choice to get people excited about your game (0:32:48) Codey: What? I loved it! (0:32:53) Jonnie: As a people, we are not exciting to listen to and terrible on camera and I was just like this was certainly a choice and not a very good one (0:32:54) Codey: Did you know anyone who was on camera? (0:33:06) Codey: Okay, awesome. (0:33:06) Codey: Because New Zealand is such a tiny place, clearly. (0:33:09) Codey: You guys all know each other. (0:33:11) Codey: Well, that’s super cool. (0:33:13) Codey: Okay, but like what, so of the things that we saw some more content on, like did you (0:33:18) Codey: have anything that you were really jazzed about or anything? (0:33:21) Jonnie: So for me, the thing that I am most excited about with this is the focus on cooking. (0:33:28) Jonnie: And for me, it’s the idea that the game is built around a specific aspect of cosy games. (0:33:38) Jonnie: We have had so many cosy games that just do the Stardew Valley thing of, (0:33:45) Jonnie: “We’re going to do all of it, and it’s all equally important.” (0:33:50) Jonnie: what I like about this. (0:33:51) Jonnie: Is that it’s like very focused around the thing that is important to Hobbits, right? (0:33:55) Jonnie: Um, there was a game I recall, I don’t think it’s ever come out yet, but it’s been around (0:34:02) Jonnie: in the news for a while, which was based around building and owning an inn. (0:34:06) Jonnie: And the more we learned about that game, the less it felt like it was in any way connected (0:34:09) Jonnie: to owning an inn, because it just had every feature from every other cozy game. (0:34:10) Codey: Yeah. (0:34:15) Jonnie: And that’s the thing that has me most excited. (0:34:18) Jonnie: and you see it through some of the little choices (0:34:21) Jonnie: that you’re making as well, like the fact that it’s not a grid based placement system for decorating in your hobbit hole (0:34:24) Codey: Yup. (0:34:28) Jonnie: so that it can be a chaotic mess, like I imagine a hobbit hole would be, to me it just feels like those little decisions are… (0:34:37) Jonnie: it makes sense in the game that they are building and in the world that they are building that game in. (0:34:42) Codey: Yeah, I really like that was one thing that really stuck out to me is like the customization (0:34:49) Codey: capabilities of the decorating where it like showed a character putting something on a (0:34:56) Codey: couch like a pillow and they were able to like position it any way they wanted and like (0:35:02) Codey: turn it like just like 10 degrees or whatever and just make it like exactly how they wanted (0:35:07) Codey: it and I thought that I love when games do that like I’ve always loved it. (0:35:12) Codey: The Sims, after the first couple of Sims, they’ve added a way that you can do that. (0:35:17) Codey: There is a grid-based system, but you can hit a key and then it’ll let you put things (0:35:21) Codey: wherever you want. (0:35:23) Codey: So it gives more, it doesn’t feel as rigid. (0:35:26) Codey: I super appreciated that about this. (0:35:29) Codey: They also said as you play, some of the spaces in your home are boarded up, but as you’re (0:35:37) Codey: playing the game, you get access to more of those rooms. (0:35:40) Codey: get someone to help you. (0:35:42) Codey: Take the boards off of one door and then they’re like, and then you can (0:35:45) Codey: decorate that room, that room, however you want. (0:35:48) Codey: And I was like, and they showed a really cool library. (0:35:50) Codey: And I was like, y’all know, I’m just going to make a lib, all libraries. (0:35:54) Codey: Right. (0:35:55) Jonnie: yep (0:35:57) Codey: I’m going to have a living room, like a living area that has like a desk. (0:36:02) Codey: Uh, and then of course you have your pantry with all your food and your (0:36:05) Codey: kitchen and like probably a kitchen table room or what is that called? (0:36:08) Codey: Dining room, uh, probably a bedroom. (0:36:11) Codey: right, but every other (0:36:12) Codey: room that I unlock is just going to be another version of a (0:36:15) Codey: library because that would be what my house would look like. (0:36:19) Codey: So I also really, the highlight of the video for me was the art (0:36:25) Codey: director’s dog. There’s a moment where he like talks about I (0:36:28) Codey: don’t even know what he says but he starts walking and the camera (0:36:31) Codey: just like zooms in at his feet and there’s just a dog walking (0:36:34) Codey: next to him. It’s this little white poofy dog. So cute. I (0:36:38) Codey: I loved that. (0:36:39) Codey: Have you pet that dog? (0:36:40) Jonnie: have not pet that dog. Okay, I’ll add it to the list of things to do next time I’m in Wellington. (0:36:47) Codey: Okay, cool. (0:36:49) Codey: The other thing that I really wanted to point out was the cooking mechanic. (0:36:53) Codey: They really seem to have a lot of options and (0:36:57) Codey: a lot of different ways that you could do that. (0:37:00) Codey: So for example, they had, I think you were cooking meat or something, but (0:37:04) Codey: you were cutting it. (0:37:05) Codey: And there was an option between going really chunky or really fine cut. (0:37:12) Codey: It just had to do with how long you chopped for, right? (0:37:17) Codey: So if you chopped for only a small amount of time, it was on the chunkier side. (0:37:21) Codey: And then there’s a bar that it’s the longer you chop that just keeps moving to (0:37:25) Codey: the right and it’s just finer and finer and finer. (0:37:28) Codey: And it kind of gives you a discrete or a continuous scale. (0:37:32) Codey: And I really like that cuz it allows for a lot of nuance in cooking. (0:37:36) Jonnie: Yeah, I agree. Right. For me, that’s one of the things that seems like has been done really well about the game is because different recipes, as I understand it, will require like some might want chunkier meat or some might want more finely diced. (0:37:51) Jonnie: Right. And so you can. And I can’t remember if it was shown in this video or a previous one, but there was different sort of flavor scales. (0:37:58) Codey: Yeah, yeah, it was like smokey, smokey versus something else, yeah. (0:38:01) Jonnie: So you’re actually. (0:38:04) Jonnie: Exactly. So you’re actually cry- (0:38:06) Jonnie: crafting dishes rather than, rather than just like kind of the standard cooking, right? (0:38:14) Jonnie: Which is just like do the action on time, which is fine. (0:38:18) Jonnie: You’re doing real cooking and that’s very much at the core of the game and it seems like it’s got a- (0:38:25) Codey: Mm-hmm. Yeah for sure. Um, was there anything else that you wanted to talk about with Tales of the Shire? (0:38:30) Jonnie: Oh yeah, so the other thing, in general discourse about this game, I see a lot of commentary (0:38:39) Jonnie: around the art style, and obviously because it’s the internet, most of the commentary (0:38:45) Jonnie: you see is people that don’t like it, and for me the art style is unique. (0:38:52) Jonnie: I totally get why people may not love this art style, but I almost feel like a lot of (0:38:57) Jonnie: the reaction is because art has become (0:39:00) Jonnie: a little bit homogenous in games recently and this is a different art style. Yes, like it is (0:39:08) Jonnie: a relatively simple art style but I think it works for what the game is and it’s not something (0:39:15) Jonnie: that I’m going to sit stand here and say it’s my favorite but I think it works and I feel like (0:39:20) Jonnie: it’s getting a lot of overly negative views on the art style simply because it’s not (0:39:27) Jonnie: aligned to what we commonly think of art style. (0:39:30) Jonnie: Where it’s like either your pixel or you know like this kind of you know legend of uh not legend (0:39:38) Jonnie: of Zelda Breath of the Wild style like you know like it just feels like there’s a small number of (0:39:44) Jonnie: categories now and if you don’t fit into one of those then people look at it and go that it’s bad. (0:39:48) Jonnie: But when I look at this I get um uh to me it kind of aligns to the an art style that was sort of (0:39:56) Jonnie: preeminent in you know mid-2000s. I think of games like Fable. (0:40:00) Codey: Mmm, yeah. (0:40:01) Jonnie: And you know Fable is like very English, old England inspired. Obviously Lord of the Rings, (0:40:08) Jonnie: the Shire, very inspired by that region of the world. So there’s something like actually (0:40:13) Jonnie: that I like about this art style that makes me feel slightly nostalgic. So anyway I just (0:40:18) Jonnie: see a lot of negative discourse and I think that’s largely driven by people being less accepting of (0:40:24) Jonnie: things that are trying something new and I quite like what this is doing. (0:40:28) Codey: - Yeah, I think that that was my initial gut reaction too, (0:40:31) Codey: was like, oh, this is the unknown. (0:40:33) Codey: Like, ah, spooky. (0:40:35) Codey: But I feel that like the more I see trailers of it, (0:40:39) Codey: the more it’s like endearing to me. (0:40:40) Codey: And I think it’s just something I just need to get used to. (0:40:42) Codey: I don’t think that it’s bad. (0:40:44) Codey: I think it’s just different. (0:40:45) Codey: And I’m excited to see where it goes. (0:40:46) Jonnie: Exactly, uh, only other thing is, uh, Lidl. Lidl, best character. (0:40:52) Jonnie: Lidl is the goose that’s got the armour. (0:40:53) Codey: Oh cute. Cool. Well that is the news. Okay so today we are talking about what games should include (0:41:06) Codey: farming. So these are games either that we’re coming up with off the top of our head or existing (0:41:11) Codey: games that just like why don’t they have a farming aspect to them really. So when this was pitched to (0:41:19) Codey: to me. I think it was pitched because of some of the conversations that like Al (0:41:23) Codey: and Kevin had been having. And I was like really sitting there. I was like, man, okay, (0:41:29) Codey: think of games that are not farming games. My brain went to like Call of Duty. And I was like, (0:41:36) Codey: no, or like Baldur’s Gate. I don’t think that’s gonna have farming in it. I do know World of (0:41:42) Codey: Warcraft did have farming in it in the midst of Pandaria expansion. It was actually pretty cool, (0:41:47) Codey: but it was just kind of like a small little way to get experience with a certain fact. (0:41:53) Codey: I didn’t even think about that! (0:42:12) Jonnie: The first game that came to mind for me was Skyrim, yeah, to me, yeah, so to me it was (0:42:24) Codey: Oh my gosh! Okay, elaborate. I’m here for it. (0:42:28) Jonnie: one of those like Skyrim is such a big game right and when I was thinking about what would (0:42:37) Jonnie: make sense for a sort of genre to add farming too. (0:42:43) Jonnie: The thing that really stood out to me is like how would it meaningfully add something to (0:42:48) Jonnie: the gameplay of the game right and I don’t recall if Skyrim had like if you could build (0:42:56) Jonnie: farms when you could do some of the house building stuff but that was sort of you know (0:43:01) Jonnie: very limited and you know I guess when I say Skyrim right it’s like any sort of Bethesda (0:43:06) Jonnie: style open world game I kind of feel like this applies to where it would be great if (0:43:11) Jonnie: if you could… (0:43:14) Jonnie: just… (0:43:14) Jonnie: more farming, because farming is a… (0:43:18) Jonnie: like, often you get resources from farms that exist, right? (0:43:22) Jonnie: Like, whether it’s potatoes or whatever it is. (0:43:26) Jonnie: But equally, kind of, the more I thought about it, the more the thing that stood out to me (0:43:32) Jonnie: is the ability to do farming in a way that’s slightly different (0:43:36) Jonnie: because you have so many different locations that you could do farming in. (0:43:40) Jonnie: and what I started thinking about. (0:43:41) Codey: Yeah. (0:43:42) Codey: Oh, I’m sorry. (0:43:42) Jonnie: was the idea of like, imagine what farming would be like in Fallout, where you have soil that is full of radiation, and maybe you are generating all of these, you know, plants that have mutations on them, or maybe in Skyrim, where you’re farming near the mountains, and you know, it’s really icy, maybe that changes how you farm, or in a game like Starfield, which nobody played because it was terrible, like, what is it like farming on? (0:43:44) Codey: I’m sorry. (0:43:46) Codey: I’m sorry. (0:43:48) Codey: I’m sorry. (0:43:50) Codey: I’m sorry. (0:44:09) Codey: Yeah. (0:44:12) Jonnie: a planet that’s further away from the local star that the planets are orbiting around, so I got really excited about like, the variation that’s possible within those sorts of things. (0:44:20) Codey: Yeah. (0:44:26) Codey: Yeah, I think that that is really a cool idea, like I’m thinking about, you know, the farm that (0:44:33) Codey: you would have in like Whiterun or around Whiterun will be completely different than the one around (0:44:38) Codey: Markarth, which is going to be a higher elevation versus like the one in the swampy area that I (0:44:46) Codey: hate going to that’s gonna have completely different things like it’s (0:44:50) Codey: like water and then like of course the solstheim when you go there there’s (0:44:57) Codey: probably different crops there I’m sure I’m all in for this I did a quick (0:45:03) Codey: Google and apparently there is like a content creation thing that someone made (0:45:07) Codey: that does this which I’d prefer it to be there are so many mods you can get for (0:45:14) Codey: this game it’s ridiculous but I don’t know it’s I would like it to be more of (0:45:19) Codey: of a, like, in the– (0:45:20) Codey: game thing. Um… (0:45:22) Jonnie: Yeah I want it to be inbuilt right because like I can imagine you know like maybe there’s a farming guild and you need to go and grow certain crops or at which role might require a farm in like you could I think you could build a lot more story around the nature of farming in an open world game. (0:45:23) Codey: Yes. (0:45:41) Codey: Yeah, the only so there’s there is one plantation that you can get in the game right now. It’s called Golden Hills plantation (0:45:49) Codey: So you just you start the farm, but then you have to hire a steward hire people to work the farm (0:45:56) Codey: Tell them them what to plant tell them what to build (0:46:01) Codey: By animals and then you just come up and the stewards like here’s your money. Here’s here’s the (0:46:05) Jonnie: Yeah, that doesn’t sound correct. (0:46:06) Codey: Here’s the profit and it’s like okay, but like I want to do it (0:46:11) Codey: And there could be magic that is just like growing (0:46:17) Codey: like helping to grow (0:46:20) Codey: Trying to think of what magic system conjuration (0:46:22) Codey: Ah. (0:46:23) Jonnie: but it could be it could be a new magic system right like because those those games don’t really have strong nature based stuff but it exists because you have dry ads and like that the some of the lore exists but it’s not something that’s been integral to the player character. (0:46:32) Codey: yeah (0:46:37) Codey: uh-huh (0:46:40) Codey: Yeah, it’s really not so there’s the (0:46:43) Codey: Six types of magic are alteration, conjuration, destruction, enchanting, illusion, and restoration, but like farming doesn’t really fit in (0:46:50) Codey: Oh my gosh. I am (0:46:52) Codey: You’ve sold me. Um, I love Skyrim (0:46:56) Codey: so (0:46:57) Codey: I can’t believe that didn’t come to my mind (0:47:00) Codey: Um, it’s like a whole new skill tree, too (0:47:03) Codey: Okay (0:47:03) Jonnie: Yeah, it’s- there’s so many options, right? What about you, Cody? What was- what was the thing that sort of landed for you? (0:47:10) Codey: So, of course the lowest hanging fruit the fruit that’s basically on the ground at this point, um is pokemon (0:47:18) Codey: Um and people are gonna be like oh you berries (0:47:22) Codey: There’s so much more that you could do with that (0:47:24) Codey: um (0:47:25) Codey: Or like working with pokemon the pokemon that are food already like using them to help (0:47:32) Codey: You farm like (0:47:35) Codey: I could see like the (0:47:37) Codey: Uh olive guy helping you with like trees and he’s helping you take care of trees and he gives you advice on like how to (0:47:46) Codey: Harvest different tree-based fruits (0:47:48) Codey: um, you know (0:47:51) Codey: Miltank and other such things, uh, that Wooloo wool so much wool from that baby writer (0:47:59) Codey: Uh, all the pigs could find truffle. I mean there’s like (0:48:03) Codey: So many options for that (0:48:05) Codey: There is a player made game when I was googling if this exists or not (0:48:11) Codey: In any way, there’s a player made game that someone said that is going to have this but to my knowledge it has been in (0:48:18) Codey: creation or like in (0:48:21) Codey: Development for like a decade at this point so and it’s not sanctioned so (0:48:27) Codey: I am not gonna hold my breath on that (0:48:30) Codey: Oh. (0:48:31) Jonnie: And even the ability to use Pokemon for the jobs, whether it’s using ground-type Pokemon to help (0:48:39) Jonnie: level out and create the plots that you farm in, or using Gurdo and Kin to build your farm buildings. (0:48:50) Jonnie: And just some of

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

In the third episode of Tit Talk, Rosalina guides us through a study featured in JAMA Oncology in November 2023. Examining data from nearly 50,000 women in the UK, the study investigates the potential link between vaginal estrogen therapy and breast cancer-related mortality. The study's findings reveal no evidence of an elevated risk. As always, Rosalina encourages listeners to stay informed, seek advice from healthcare professionals, and feel empowered to make decisions that align with their well-being.In this third season of the podcast, we had a dedicated episode on sexual health, where we spoke to medical oncologist and sexual health expert Dr. Laila Agrawal on a misconception about hormone-positive breast cancer and the use of vaginal estrogen. It's an episode worth catching up on, especially since discussions about women's sexual health are often overlooked.Resources: Main study: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamaoncology/article-abstract/2811413Dr. Agrawal analysis of the main study: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C0HTzb2Ad9k/More info on the model used in the study: https://sphweb.bumc.bu.edu/otlt/mph-modules/bs/bs704_survival/BS704_Survival6.htmlASCO 2018 recommendation: https://ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.1200/JCO.2017.75.8995Medical study general analysis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHsdpg1OOf0North American Menopause Society recommendation: https://www.menopause.org/docs/default-source/professional/nams-2022-hormone-therapy-position-statement.pdfRecurrence study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37535961/Dr. Agrawal's post re: recurrence study: https://www.instagram.com/p/C0P9wdsg1nf/

In today's episode, Shauna shares the confusing, isolating, and difficult road that is survivor's guilt. While she navigated how to continue on with her second chance at life, she was met with pockets of darkness when she felt she should be grateful for the light of remission. Rosalina shares the boundaries she created to protect herself and why she hasn't experienced survivor's guilt, while Shauna speaks on the spiraling grief she has felt watching members of the cancer community advance in their diseases and how it's a stark reminder of mortality when members pass on. Rather than succumbing to a guilt-ridden existence, Shauna continues to learn how to balance holding space for others.Episode Timestamps: [00:01:39] Survivor's Guilt[00:06:54] When Guilt Sends You Spiraling[00:18:38] Take Me Instead Mentality[00:20:59] Getting Lost in GriefYou can follow us on Instagram @TYFTSpodcast and email us at tyftspodcast@gmail.comPlease consider donating to our “Buy Me A Coffee” page.
