Bem nas vésperas do lançamento de Assassin's Creed Shadows, rolou um vazamento geral do jogo. E o que a Ubisoft tem a dizer sobre isso? Protejam-se dos spoilers! E por falar neles, o terceiro jogo do Homem-Aranha foi confirmado por ninguém menos do que o seu ator, Yuri Lowenthal. E ele garante que o cabeça-de-teia original vai ser importante no jogo. Tem também as repercussões da WB Games, os anúncios do Pokémon Presents e muito mais!Só aqui no Flow Games News você fica por dentro de tudo!

Ryan welcomes Jocelyn to the world of Avowed and how if you loved Skyrim like we did, Avowed is an excellent follow up! You know, since a certain fellow Xbox Studios isn't bringing Elder Scrolls 6 anytime soon. After a quick update on TGI Game Club, we move over to the news, where WB Games closes down three studios, Fable slips to 2026, LEGO Horizon Adventures gives us an affordable Horizon LEGO set, Yuri Lowenthal says Peter Parker will be off the couch in Spider-Man 3, and Pokemon GO is up for sale.

In todays' Daily Fix:Assassin's Creed Shadows is about a month from release, but that hasn't stopped copies from showing up in online marketplaces. Apparently older builds of the game are out in the wild, and people are already streaming it (those streams, of course, have been taken down). In other news, Spider-Man voice actor, Yuri Lowenthal, has confirmed Peter Parker will be in the third Insomniac Spider-Man game. In what capacity, he didn't say, but he teased that Parker won't just be sitting on a couch and letting Miles have all the fun. And finally, the trade war between the U.S. and China could be affecting gaming hardware, and Sony is preparing for just such a situation. They plan to move as much of the PS5's production outside of China, and stockpiling enough of them in the U.S. that hopefully they can meet demand until production costs level out.

My name is Al (0:00:39) Al: and we’re here today to talk about cottage core games. (0:00:43) Kev: woooooo (0:00:44) Al: Kevin’s not distracted by writing something in the show notes at all. (0:00:47) Kev: Yes (0:00:50) Kev: Look look, okay, you know, I you see the foghorn leghorn trend on twitter. Oh (0:00:55) Al: No I have not. (0:00:56) Kev: Oh my gosh, I thought about doing it for this show (0:00:59) Kev: but I I I lost uh some of the energy for this weekend, but um, uh, basically (0:01:04) Kev: People have just been putting foghorn leghorn into anime scenes (0:01:08) Kev: Or just like images and just a whole rant of him that he would say and it’s been hilarious (0:01:13) Kev: Like so much (0:01:14) Al: I think, yeah, I think didn’t is the best option there. (0:01:15) Kev: um (0:01:16) Kev: Anyways, I was thought about introing like that, but I didn’t so you’re welcome people (0:01:28) Al: Transcripts for this episode are available in the show notes and on the website and hopefully (0:01:33) Al: they’ll be quicker generating from now on because I have a new iPad which is much faster (0:01:37) Al: than my six-year-old iPad. (0:01:41) Al: I think I ran Transcriber. (0:01:44) Al: That’s what that’s what happens when you spend six years between between iPads is you get an insane (0:01:49) Kev: yep (0:01:53) Kev: oh wow wow okay that’s that’s good that’s faster (0:02:03) Al: insane speed increase so this episode we are probably going to talk about homestead arcana (0:02:06) Kev: we have the technology (0:02:13) Al: It depends on how you do it. (0:02:14) Kev: That’s a game. (0:02:14) Al: It depends on how much kevin has played it. (0:02:18) Al: I have played it, I have opened the game and I have done stuff in it. (0:02:23) Al: I have a save file with a character and I have some opinions. (0:02:24) Kev: Okay. Alright. (0:02:26) Kev: Good opening, Salvo. (0:02:28) Kev: Salvo (0:02:30) Al: So we’re going to talk about that. (0:02:33) Al: Before that we’ve got a bunch of news including a couple of new games and some exciting news. (0:02:43) Al: before all of that, and before what we’ve… (0:02:44) Al: been up to. I want to respond to Johnny. So, was it two episodes ago? Johnny ranted about… (0:02:51) Al: Yeah, it was in the Rusty’s retirement episode. Johnny ranted about Coral Island. He ranted (0:02:54) Kev: Uh, yeah, I’m in the middle of it, okay (0:02:57) Al: about Coral Island, and he said that it’s ridiculous that I’m suggesting that Coral (0:03:02) Al: Island is the standard for farming games. And what I would like to say is Johnny is (0:03:07) Al: right in everything that he says, except… except that’s not what I s… (0:03:09) Kev: He’s right, because wildflowers should be. (0:03:14) Al: said. I did not say that it’s the standard for farming games, or if I did, I didn’t mean (0:03:20) Al: it. What I mean is that Coral Island, the farming part of Coral Island, should be the (0:03:27) Al: standard for farming games going forward. The features that it adds to the genre, that (0:03:35) Al: is how things should be. That is what I’m trying to say. He’s absolutely right about (0:03:39) Al: everything else he says about Coral Island. It is definitely unfinished. I have complained (0:03:43) Al: about this before. (0:03:44) Kev: Hahaha! (0:03:44) Al: . I still think it is the best, if not the second best farming game, personally. (0:03:47) Kev: Well. (0:03:51) Kev: Well. (0:03:52) Kev: Hey, good news, though. (0:03:54) Kev: Being unfinished already IS the standard for ghost games! (0:03:59) Kev: Hahaha! (0:04:00) Al: Fair fair. And it is still to see whether 1.1 will finish Coral Island or not. We will (0:04:01) Kev: Hahaha! (0:04:08) Al: see the betas coming out in a week, I think. (0:04:09) Kev: Okay, okay (0:04:13) Kev: Wait, they’re doing a beta for the 1.1. Oh (0:04:15) Al: They are, yeah. Yeah. (0:04:17) Kev: My good. Oh, wow, nothing evokes confidence like saying we’re (0:04:19) Al: I refuse to play that, though. (0:04:24) Kev: Beta, we’re doing a beta post launch (0:04:26) Kev: a (0:04:28) Al: And obviously, nothing will ever live up to Stardew in its longevity, I don’t think, so. (0:04:36) Kev: Oh, concern date refuses it for anything else to do. So I know that’s foreshadowing. (0:04:41) Al: Well, we’re gonna talk about that later. We’ve got we’ve got stuff. We’ve got news on (0:04:44) Al: stardew. Well, news on stardew who’d have thought it. So that’s, that’s why I wanted (0:04:50) Al: to wanted to point out, I’ve talked to Johnny about this on slack. Anyway, and he thinks (0:04:56) Al: that he, I believe he said what I said is fair now that he understands that it’s about (0:05:01) Al: the farming aspect of things. But I felt it was important to talk about on the podcast (0:05:02) Kev: We don’t want fair. We want reactionary content. (0:05:05) Al: as well. Because I don’t think I’ve been on the podcast for like four episodes now. More (0:05:12) Al: More than that, oh my word, the last episode I was on (0:05:15) Al: was over a month ago. (0:05:17) Al: Wild. (0:05:18) Kev: Wait, was it the one I was on? Was EPUF on last time? (0:05:21) Al: It was. (0:05:26) Al: Wow. (0:05:27) Al: It’s a Cody show now. (0:05:29) Kev: There, well, you know. (0:05:30) Al: Cody was on the last four episodes. (0:05:32) Kev: Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh… (0:05:34) Kev: Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh… (0:05:36) Al: No, oh wait, yes. (0:05:37) Kev: Aww… Yes? (0:05:39) Al: Wait, have I? (0:05:39) Kev: Have you? Oh… (0:05:40) Al: No. (0:05:41) Kev: Yeah, I was about to make a reference. (0:05:43) Al: I think it’s on my list to watch. (0:05:43) Kev: Okay, well you should. (0:05:44) Al: I can’t remember what… (0:05:45) Kev: I was just gonna say the fans have voted. (0:05:47) Kev: Just like Smormu. (0:05:49) Kev: Um, but, alright. (0:05:50) Al: No, I’ve not seen it. (0:05:51) Kev: Heh, I’ll get to watch it. Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh… (0:05:52) Al: That confirms it. (0:05:53) Al: I don’t understand the reference, therefore no. (0:05:55) Al: Right, okay, cool. (0:05:56) Al: So, blah blah blah, a lot of stuff to talk about. (0:05:59) Al: Kevin, what have you been up to? (0:06:02) Kev: Um… (0:06:04) Kev: Non-video… (0:06:06) Kev: It’s been a chaotic week for me. (0:06:08) Kev: Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh… (0:06:10) Kev: Um, alright. (0:06:12) Kev: I caught up and finished X-Men 97. (0:06:14) Kev: Hey, guess what? That game is good. (0:06:16) Kev: You know what? We should talk about it sometime. (0:06:17) Al: laughs Imagine that. Foreshadowing! laughs (0:06:18) Kev: Heh, heh, heh, heh… (0:06:20) Kev: Just the thought. (0:06:22) Kev: Heh, heh, heh, heh… (0:06:24) Kev: X-Men 97, very good. (0:06:26) Kev: Heh, heh, heh, heh… (0:06:28) Kev: Let’s all say all that for now. (0:06:30) Kev: I caught up on (0:06:32) Kev: Uhh, well yeah, Smiling Friends. It’s very short so probably since the last time I watched it I binged that. (0:06:39) Kev: Very very funny, very enjoyable. I suggest you go watch it out. It’s Adult Swim, so they’re like 10 minute episodes (0:06:44) Kev: So you can knock it out real quick (0:06:45) Al: Yeah, I haven’t seen this one but it was on my list to watch at some point (0:06:48) Kev: All right, we’ll go do it. Season 2 is ongoing (0:06:52) Kev: They’re releasing new episodes and very excited for that. Like, one should be this weekend, I think? I don’t know. (0:07:00) Kev: Outside of that I’ve been doing a lot of (0:07:02) Kev: my daily grinds because that’s comfort gaming for me, Pokemon Unite. (0:07:06) Kev: Falinks came out and he’s funny and adorable and as great as I’d hoped. (0:07:11) Kev: Umm… (0:07:12) Kev: The game in general is… (0:07:12) Al: Does he split up and beat people up? (0:07:15) Kev: Yes! He can! (0:07:17) Kev: He has two, he has two, uhh… (0:07:20) Kev: So every Pokemon basically has two, like, branches for their attacks that you can pick. (0:07:24) Kev: Falinks has either they all stick together and form a big shield, or they all separate and beat up people. (0:07:29) Kev: And his is united his ultimate move (0:07:32) Kev: The little guys just start spinning around him just just carouseling around him and beating up anyone. It touches. It’s great (0:07:40) Kev: Yeah, I love falling sees fantastic little dude or dudes, let’s see Disney speedstorm (0:07:40) Al: Love it (0:07:49) Kev: The the Disney racing game the (0:07:52) Kev: Wreck-it Ralph season is ongoing (0:07:56) Kev: Boy they’re they’re just getting more (0:07:58) Kev: Money they want money (0:08:01) Kev: because (0:08:02) Kev: They actually split the season into two parts, so you have to buy two passes if you want the premium characters or whatever (0:08:10) Kev: Heart one was Vanellope. She was like the premium character and I bought it because I like Vanellope. Heart two was Sergeant Calhoun the that lady (0:08:19) Kev: The from the hero’s duty game or whatever (0:08:21) Kev: I’m not buying because I don’t care about her that much but the the racetrack from the game and sugar rush is there (0:08:27) Kev: It’s very fun. I like to beat storm still very fun game (0:08:32) Kev: Marvel snap continues to be Marvel snap (0:08:36) Kev: The game’s really big there’s a lot of cards I keep up with it (0:08:41) Kev: I think for I don’t know for better or for worse, but I still play it (0:08:42) Al: I think I’ve given up on it. (0:08:47) Kev: That’s good for you, you know what you’re smart man, yep (0:08:49) Al: It was a period of time for me, I enjoyed it while it was a period of time, but I think (0:08:53) Kev: Yep (0:08:54) Kev: That’s that’s fine. I salute you for that. So those are my daily stuff. Um Ori and the Blind Forest I have (0:09:02) Kev: I’ve gone through that. Are you familiar with that one now? (0:09:04) Al: I’m I’m familiar with it, but I’ve not played it and that’s a metroidvania, right? (0:09:08) Kev: Okay, what yep it is and it (0:09:11) Al: Yeah, I think I heard you talk about it. I think I heard you talk about it on Rainbow Road radio (0:09:15) Kev: Yeah, yeah (0:09:17) Kev: Yeah, you can hear me talk about it there. Well, yeah, I’m just gonna repeat what I said there (0:09:20) Kev: It’s it is a metroidvania, but unlike say Metroid (0:09:24) Kev: Dread or other metroids. It’s not so much combat focused. It’s much more (0:09:29) Kev: Like platforming obstacle focused which (0:09:32) Al: Yeah. (0:09:32) Kev: I think I might have a harder time with. (0:09:33) Al: Oh, interesting. (0:09:35) Kev: Some of them can feel very challenging because you have to (0:09:39) Kev: time your jumps, you have to extend jumps, turn in mid-air, you have to bounce off (0:09:43) Kev: enemies or projectiles. Wild, wild nonsense that they come up with. (0:09:47) Kev: The game is very pretty and enjoyable. I’m still going through it. (0:09:51) Kev: There’s that. (0:09:52) Kev: Speaking of Rainbow Road Radio, the podcast I do with our mutual friend Alex, (0:09:57) Kev: I have, I think like since the last time I’ve been on, (0:10:00) Kev: I played through a lot of the classic (0:10:02) Kev: We’ve been doing good the spring time for jump man. That’s what Alex calls it (0:10:06) Kev: We the original Super Mario Bros. We did the lost level Super Mario Bros 2 and 3 and a world is upcoming (0:10:13) Kev: So I’ve been going through that getting my fresh course in Mario history. I guess what Mario platformers are good shocker. I know (0:10:20) Al: Yeah, I really know (0:10:21) Kev: Lost levels - yeah, go ahead. Oh (0:10:24) Kev: I was just say lost levels is good, but it’s also really hard to mean (0:10:30) Al: yeah I really like lost levels um I found too very funny because it’s it’s (0:10:32) Kev: » Yeah, yeah. (0:10:42) Al: sure it’s a mario game but it’s not a mario game it’s it’s like a skinner a skinner on top of (0:10:44) Kev: That is correct (0:10:48) Al: another game and and it makes it makes it so weird in so many ways right because it’s like (0:10:49) Kev: That is literally what it is, yes, uh, yes you are right it is (0:10:56) Kev: Right (0:10:57) Al: so different to the first one but also so… (0:11:00) Kev: Yep (0:11:00) Al: different to everyone since. There’s so much stuff in this game that never happens again. (0:11:03) Kev: Absolutely (0:11:08) Kev: Yeah (0:11:09) Kev: And it’s and what’s really weird is they some things did stick around maybe not like mechanics or whatever (0:11:14) Kev: But like turnips and shy guys and you know different things like the elements and features floating and all that stuff, right? (0:11:22) Kev: Like I still kept some of that. So I guess they were happy with what came out, but it is (0:11:28) Kev: It’s wild like I can’t think of another example where they you know (0:11:32) Kev: Reskinned a game and they kind of claimed ownership to that and it still stayed but not really (0:11:38) Kev: wild wild nonsense (0:11:38) Al: Well the funny thing is as well, it’s a skinner on top of a game, but it’s also the 5th best selling game on the NES ever. (0:11:45) Al: Like, I don’t think any other skinner box game has ever done that. (0:11:52) Al: Like, that’s wild. (0:11:54) Kev: Yeah, it is. (0:11:55) Kev: I didn’t know that. (0:11:56) Kev: That’s what, that is wild. (0:11:57) Kev: Holy moly. (0:11:58) Al: It’s just so weird. (0:11:59) Al: “It was critically well received for its design aspects and for differentiating the Super Mario series.” (0:12:04) Al: That’s because it wasn’t a Mario game! (0:12:08) Al: It’s a different game! (0:12:12) Al: I mean, I really like it. It’s fun, but it’s really funny. (0:12:15) Kev: Maybe, yeah it is. (0:12:18) Kev: Maybe other things should start doing that more. (0:12:21) Kev: This is how we’ll save the MCU. (0:12:22) Al: I put Spider-Man in every film that he has referenced in the MCU. You know that old film’s (0:12:22) Kev: We’re just gonna copy other movie- (0:12:24) Kev: -put Spider-Man in it. (0:12:29) Kev: Oh yeah. (0:12:30) Kev: Um… (0:12:32) Kev: Wow, that’s great. (0:12:42) Kev: Yeah. YEAH. AHHH. He’s been there. That’s why he knows it. He’s been there. Ah, okay. (0:12:43) Al: alien? That old film’s Star Wars! (0:12:52) Al: And then just make it self-referential so he has to refer to the fact that he’s in this thing that (0:12:56) Al: is like a film that he he knows of. Good fun. (0:13:03) Kev: So that’s all the fun stuff. The unfun stuff. I got laid off this week. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Oh, (0:13:08) Al: Just remember, this is the family friendly episode, no swearing. (0:13:12) Kev: man. So, I mean, you know. Yes, okay. I will not. But it came out of left field. It was, (0:13:27) Kev: and I asked them, because of course when you find out you’re losing your job, you know, (0:13:32) Kev: you’re like, “Is it anything I did?” And they’re very adamant. It was nothing personal about (0:13:37) Kev: me or my performance or whatever, but they just had to get some jobs. (0:13:42) Kev: mine happened to be on that list I was laid off last year as well but that (0:13:57) Kev: was a different scenario because that company was a small startup and basically it collapsed (0:14:03) Kev: it just failed so the whole company died all employees were laid off at the same time right (0:14:12) Kev: so it was very sad because I really liked we all really liked that company we liked (0:14:16) Kev: each other our co-workers and whatnot and at least we were in it together more or less (0:14:21) Kev: right like we all went out to lunch and just drank our sadness away or whatever (0:14:25) Kev: um we’re like this is a massive so the company I worked for directly was a large company (0:14:36) Kev: that’s like headquartered in pencil in pittsburgh different state from where I am and they’re (0:14:40) Kev: owned by an even bigger company, Amor. (0:14:42) Kev: The biggest stinger is just, you know, why me over other people who might be working in similar positions to me, right? (0:14:59) Kev: So like, I can’t help but feel like there is probably some weight of performance issues, but yeah, I mean, I could get into the whole thing. (0:15:07) Kev: like I don’t think it was my performance but like light work was light and ultimately it all just (0:15:12) Kev: money right like they felt like they weren’t getting enough money so i’m they’re just gonna (0:15:16) Kev: get rid of me um (0:15:19) Al: Yeah it’s one of these things where you need to not overthink these things because it could be (0:15:23) Al: for any number of reasons. It could just be first in, last first in, first out sort of thing. You (0:15:24) Kev: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you’re right you’re right (0:15:27) Al: just never know and it’s not fun, not fun but sometimes stuff like that. (0:15:31) Kev: Yeah, but c’est la vie, um (0:15:34) Kev: But the the silver lining bits one (0:15:36) Kev: I have already been actually I picked up uber as a side hustle just a few weeks ago (0:15:40) Kev: So I can double down on that now. It’s not the obviously not the same level of salary (0:15:46) Kev: I was making right but it’s more than unemployment (0:15:48) Al: Keeps you going. (0:15:49) Kev: Yep, and and because this company is big they I actually got some severance (0:15:54) Kev: pay and stuff like that so I have at least a little to keep me going (0:16:00) Kev: obviously there’s a lot of pressure to find a proper job to get a steady (0:16:04) Kev: paycheck and whatnot but but yeah that’s that’s just how it is sale of me all (0:16:10) Kev: right what about you I hope you haven’t been laid off what it what else have (0:16:12) Al: No, thankfully I’ve not been laid off, I’m still at my terrible job. I’ve not done a (0:16:14) Kev: you been up to (0:16:20) Kev: that’s correct (0:16:23) Al: huge amount of games, I feel like I’ve been procrastinating with gaming in general because (0:16:29) Al: I didn’t want to play Homestead Arcana and the problem is if I’m procrastinating playing (0:16:37) Al: a game for the podcast because I’m not enjoying it, the problem then is that I don’t play (0:16:42) Al: it because I feel guilty when I play different games so I just end up not playing games which (0:16:44) Kev: I built! (0:16:46) Kev: Yea! (0:16:48) Al: is really bad but we’ll get into that we’ll get into that later but what I have done is (0:16:50) Kev: Yea! (0:16:52) Kev: Blang! (0:16:54) Al: I did before I picked up Homestead Arcana because I think we only decided to do this (0:16:58) Al: two weeks ago, I played Let’s Go Eevee because I hadn’t finished that game so I have now (0:17:06) Al: played and finished that game, caught a shiny seal in it, oh boy that was a long slog. (0:17:08) Kev: Okay, yeah (0:17:13) Al: The game I still really like Let’s Go and I think it is one of the best Pokemon games (0:17:17) Al: full stop. I understand why some people don’t like certain aspects of it but personally (0:17:18) Kev: Okay (0:17:21) Kev: Yeah (0:17:23) Al: I think it is one of the best in so many ways. (0:17:26) Kev: Sure sure like I get that like there’s like visually it’s it’s a beautiful beautiful game right absolutely one of the best and (0:17:35) Kev: There’s it’s very cute (0:17:38) Kev: It does a lot of things, right? (0:17:40) Kev: My problem with me is I don’t like the go-catchy (0:17:42) Kev: So, if that’s the core mechanic, yup (0:17:44) Al: Yeah. No, I know. That’s and that’s and that’s what I’m saying. And that’s what I’m saying. (0:17:48) Al: That’s why I think I think that that’s I know that’s why people don’t like it. And I understand (0:17:52) Kev: Yeah, and to be fair, that’s like a completely subjective thing, right? (0:17:53) Al: that. (0:17:56) Kev: Like, I know, like, I think you would maybe fall into this category where a lot of people don’t care much for the battling (0:18:04) Kev: or just grinding endlessly in the other games, right? (0:18:04) Al: Yeah, absolutely. (0:18:08) Kev: So, yeah, that’s completely to taste, but I will say, like, what I see, I think, it is a well-done game. (0:18:16) Kev: It is very competent, technically, it looks very good, and I didn’t–any discourse on it, I didn’t hear about, like, let’s say Scarlet Violet, any technical issues, glitches, or crap. (0:18:26) Al: No, no, I think, I think the most of it, so it’s definitely going through a resurgence (0:18:31) Al: of rose-tinted glasses with people, you know, people who didn’t like it at the time now (0:18:33) Kev: Okay. (0:18:35) Al: like it because that’s just the cycle with Pokemon games, right? (0:18:38) Al: People don’t like it and then they like it because the newer thing is something else (0:18:41) Al: they don’t like, so they have to compare it to just, oh my word, so it’s just the classic (0:18:42) Kev: If you thought that was bad, just wait till we drop NOW! (0:18:48) Al: cycle of Pokemon games but yeah, I think the main thing that people didn’t like was the (0:18:52) Al: catching and I understand that I it’s not like (0:18:56) Al: I think it’s amazing but I like that it’s different I did I don’t like catching in (0:19:01) Al: pokemon games in general I don’t think it’s fun and so doing something different I think is (0:19:06) Al: exciting and fun in being different in and of itself right the whole yeah and I actually think (0:19:10) Kev: I am glad they did something different, I will say that. (0:19:15) Al: that what they did with the legendaries in that game was the best where you have to battle it to (0:19:19) Al: whittle it down and then once you’ve defeated it then you can catch it I think that’s actually (0:19:24) Kev: And that is fun. (0:19:26) Al: and then they ended up doing that later on with raid battles right so now we have the (0:19:31) Al: raid battles where it’s essentially that is you have to defeat it and then once you’ve (0:19:34) Al: defeated it you get guaranteed catch that for me is actually the perfect thing defeat a pokemon (0:19:39) Al: then catch it i’ve never understood oh if you knock the pokemon out you can’t catch it i’m like (0:19:43) Al: why not it’s just lying there just let me throw a ball at it surely this would be the easiest time (0:19:44) Kev: You know what? Well said. Well said. I don’t even need a Pokeball, I can just drag it! (0:19:50) Al: to catch it (0:19:56) Al: yeah yeah yeah um (0:19:58) Kev: The clip looks right there! You know, that is an excellent point. Yeah, no, I can see (0:20:10) Kev: cassette piece you can hear about that on that greenhouse I did (0:20:14) Kev: it has the mechanic where when you say you’re going to catch on a turn the the (0:20:25) Kev: target monster will not die right otherwise it can die normally but if (0:20:30) Kev: you’re saying I’m going to catch you this turn it will not die which I think (0:20:33) Kev: is a clever way of solving that problem (0:20:34) Al: Fine, I’ll play cassette beasts already. My word. I just need to find some time to do (0:20:38) Kev: it’s (0:20:42) Al: that. I will do it. All right. Goodness me. We need to have like a bunch of episodes in (0:20:48) Al: a row that are not game specific game based so I can just play a game without feeling (0:20:53) Al: guilty about not playing a farming game. So I’ve also done there was a bunch of Pokemon (0:20:54) Kev: Heh heh heh heh heh heh (0:21:01) Al: violent events that I’ve done which I’m still enjoying lots of sh- (0:21:04) Al: is in the outbreaks and the I like the raids blah blah it’s fine you don’t need to comment on it (0:21:10) Kev: I’m not, I’m not. (0:21:11) Al: um and um I’ve also picked (0:21:14) Kev: I will say I salute them for keeping the game going. (0:21:19) Al: yeah yeah and they’ve not recycled anything other than like one one seven star raid they’ve recycled (0:21:25) Al: they keep bringing out new ones which is pretty impressive we’re you know we’re what 18 months out (0:21:25) Kev: So yeah that is impressive, I salute them for that. (0:21:30) Kev: Yeah that is impressive, almost two years, yeah. (0:21:31) Al: So, uh, almost. (0:21:35) Al: Stretching it a lot there almost two years. Yeah. That’s why I said 18 months. That’s why I said 18 months Kevin. Oh (0:21:36) Kev: A year and a half! (0:21:38) Kev: Year and a half. (0:21:40) Kev: Look, the next six months will fly by, just you wait. (0:21:45) Al: Sure sure and then in six months, I will say it’s been two years, but I won’t say it’s almost two and a half years (0:21:49) Kev: Okay. (0:21:50) Kev: Now mathematically, if you round, if you’re… (0:21:51) Al: Will I? (0:21:55) Kev: Five, you round up to the nearest ten. (0:21:58) Kev: Alright. (0:21:58) Al: And I’ve just recently picked up Farm RPG which I don’t want to say too much about it (0:22:04) Kev: What is Farm RPGA? (0:22:05) Kev: Tell me, I don’t remember. (0:22:08) Kev: Oh, oh, is there another time you’d like to talk about it? (0:22:08) Al: just now but basically it’s a text-based farming game on mobile so I don’t want to talk much (0:22:15) Kev: Oh, okay. (0:22:21) Al: more about it but it’s a thing that may well be mentioned in the future. (0:22:26) Kev: Yeah, okay. (0:22:28) Al: He says looking at the list of upcoming episodes right next to the show notes all right cool (0:22:38) Al: should we talk about some news because apparently we’re 25 minutes in and we’ve already done (0:22:41) Kev: Already, wow, okay. (0:22:41) Al: an over an over an hour long greenhouse so the first few bits of news are pretty quick (0:22:48) Al: so first of all we got fabled them 1.0 is out now there we go done it is it is still (0:22:52) Kev: Yes! And it was on sale. I don’t know if it still is, but I bought it. It was on sale. Yes! (0:22:57) Al: on sale. (0:22:59) Kev: Uh, yes, for 1.0. Yes, I bought it, I installed it, I haven’t played it, (0:23:03) Kev: but it’s there ready for me to fire. Uh, yeah, I did. Yes. (0:23:12) Kev: James! This is the village builder. Alright, well. (0:23:14) Al: if no one else has covered it by the time i’m done with stars drop vagabond I will do that (0:23:20) Al: but that’s a month away uh next we have fields of mistra um their early access is coming out on the (0:23:28) Al: 5th of august I i this so this this was the one that when it was first announced it was like all (0:23:30) Kev: Okay, let me see. (0:23:31) Kev: Hold on. (0:23:33) Kev: I don’t remember this one. (0:23:37) Al: these high quality graphics and then the the first game they showed they showed it was like pixel art (0:23:43) Al: and were like “I was not expecting pix- (0:23:44) Al: al art” based on all of the images you’ve already put out. It says it’s RPG so presumably there’s (0:23:55) Al: more of a story to it but other than that it just looks like it’s just another Stardew type thing. (0:24:02) Kev: I’m looking at it. It’s Stardew-y. Their aesthetic is different. Like, even from the base art, (0:24:02) Al: so yeah I don’t know maybe I’ll play (0:24:14) Kev: like they’re trying to invoke 90s-ish anime Sailor Moon-looking stuff. I think it’s coming (0:24:20) Kev: across pretty well in pixel art. It is cute. I think it might have a little more personality (0:24:28) Kev: than Stardew, just art-wise. (0:24:32) Kev: I like how there’s 12 marriage candidates and two of them are in shadow. (0:24:40) Al: Yeah, I mean, nothing about it looks bad. (0:24:42) Al: It’s just, nothing makes me go, “I need to play this.” (0:24:44) Kev: Yeah, I get that for sure. (0:24:48) Kev: It does feel like a lot of inspiration from 90s RPGs, like Final Fantasy and stuff like that. (0:24:56) Kev: Just a lot of the animations and things like that. (0:24:58) Kev: the like when they pick up the end of an item that. (0:25:02) Kev: do a little V with their fingers and it’s cute I will say the game looks cute (0:25:07) Kev: all right I don’t see any huge mechanics that make it’s screams that stand out (0:25:13) Kev: from Stardew but it’s a looks like a pretty nice stardew-esque a stardew (0:25:19) Kev: light you can’t we’re gonna coin that sir what is the difference between a (0:25:24) Al: called farming game stop it i’ll ban you from the podcast research story have their 0.8 update which (0:25:24) Kev: stardew light and a stardew light (0:25:36) Al: i’m pretty sure is out now they’ve not actually said it’s out now but i’m pretty sure it’s out now (0:25:42) Al: let’s go with this out now um uh they’ve added more farm buildings um and the ability to build (0:25:51) Al: to move and demolish them. (0:25:54) Al: Barns, sheds, fun times, and lots of other small stuff. Lots of quality of life features, (0:26:02) Al: lots of new content, new creatures, blah, blah, blah. Looks like they’re getting close to 1.0 (0:26:08) Al: if they’re at 0.8. It’s about a year it’s been in early access so far, I think. Yeah, February 20th. (0:26:22) Al: what do I look like someone who plays a game pre 1.0 come on (0:26:30) Al: uh speaking of updates my time at sandrock the 1.3 update is coming 28th of may (0:26:36) Al: and they’re also releasing a monster whisperer dlc which includes new pets (0:26:42) Kev: - Okay. (0:26:45) Al: with a new pet training and battle related content so you’re gonna get your pet (0:26:51) Kev: Oh, sick! A game where animal creatures fight each other? I, I, I, okay. (0:26:56) Al: It’s the ‘Might I’m a Sandrock’ Pokemon update! (0:27:01) Kev: This has, this idea has potential. (0:27:05) Kev: It’s like a lizard with a pumpkin on its back. Oh my goodness. Okay. (0:27:09) Kev: Um, these, some of these animals are really cute. I can’t wait. Literal dog fighting in this one. (0:27:16) Kev: Um… Oh! I was just shooting, Chris. (0:27:16) Al: Yeah I’m still not gonna play it. Moonlight Peaks have announced that they are going to be published (0:27:24) Al: by Exceed which is a part of Marvelous so that’s cool that’s all that’s that’s all the news about (0:27:28) Kev: Yep, that’s (0:27:32) Kev: What is this one I know I don’t remember this one is the vampire life (0:27:34) Al: that one uh yeah the vampire one you’re a vampire or there are vampires I can’t remember yeah no (0:27:42) Kev: Okay (0:27:44) Kev: Says you are a vampire just live the vampire life in a magical town (0:27:44) Al: I know you’re the vampire. (0:27:46) Al: Yeah, it’s got that chibi art style. (0:27:52) Kev: The supernatural dating are you excited boy that that’s that’s an Animal Crossing (0:27:58) Kev: Style that’s what that is (0:28:02) Al: Werewolves, witches, and mermaids (0:28:03) Kev: It feels (0:28:05) Kev: Yeah, it looks cute for somebody who’s big fan of lean a little horror (0:28:16) Al: I’ll probably I’ll probably play it at some point look it’s not about how skated they (0:28:20) Kev: How scary are the werewolves? (0:28:27) Al: are is it for you it’s about how good-looking they are and are they voiced by Ray Chase? (0:28:29) Kev: Well, you… you… what do you think about that? Well, you got me there. You got me there. (0:28:36) Kev: Well, you got me there. You got me there. (0:28:43) Al: If you want Kevin to like something, put Reaching (0:28:46) Al: in it. Traveller’s Rest have announced that they are going to work on a Switch version (0:28:55) Al: after their roadmap is finished. So I think that means probably in many years to come. (0:29:00) Kev: Oh my goodness, that sounds correct! (0:29:07) Al: Like there is no way that they get their roadmap done before next year and if they’re not even (0:29:16) Al: the Switch version until after their whole roadmap is finished, it’s going to be 2027 (0:29:20) Kev: Oh, Switch 2 will be out. (0:29:22) Al: before that comes out. Oh for years! Switch 2 will be two years old by then! (0:29:23) Kev: Switch… (0:29:24) Kev: Switch 3! (0:29:28) Kev: Oh yeah… (0:29:30) Kev: When was the last time a game finished a road match? (0:29:33) Al: Oh well that’s the thing yeah. Stardew maybe? Maybe not. (0:29:42) Al: speaking of switch coming to switch is gardenwood (0:29:46) Al: have announced that they’ll be releasing on switch and xbox and playstation (0:29:51) Al: they didn’t say when but the way that it’s worded makes it sound like (0:29:56) Al: probably the same time as the steam version comes out (0:29:58) Kev: You’d hope so, but it’s vague enough, maybe not. (0:30:03) Al: yeah yeah don’t hold me to that don’t hold them to that (0:30:07) Al: but it’s coming out at the end of this year so I feel like at this point in time saying that (0:30:13) Al: makes the there’s the implicate (0:30:16) Al: the implication is there I think and hopefully they’ve thought that through (0:30:20) Al: and they’ve realized that that would be the implication so therefore that’s what (0:30:23) Al: they’re saying rather than not realizing that would be the implication (0:30:27) Al: I feel like if you’re if you’re if you’re at this point where you’re six (0:30:30) Al: months away from releasing and you don’t and you say oh we’re also coming to (0:30:34) Al: console and you don’t say after the switch steam release I feel like you’re (0:30:40) Al: just asking for people to be a no (0:30:42) Kev: That is correct (0:30:43) Kev: cuz gamers man, I’m looking through the pictures here because I can remember what the game is first like (0:30:49) Kev: First of all, there’s some very cute animals in here. Look at this bunny. It’s just like a dust cloud with ears (0:30:55) Kev: And bees and there’s like little rocks with eyes. It’s very cute. I just feel so bad about this name (0:30:59) Al: The bees are very fat. (0:31:01) Kev: garden which life like it’s (0:31:02) Al: I know. (0:31:04) Al: It’s so generic. (0:31:04) Kev: Madlibs (0:31:05) Kev: Madlibs of generic cottage (0:31:08) Al: That’s a good point. (0:31:09) Al: It’s totally like they’ve just taken genres and shoved them together to make the name. (0:31:12) Kev: - Yup, yup. (0:31:14) Al: Let’s see, it’s a life sim but it’s growing things in your garden and you’re a witch. (0:31:20) Kev: Uh… laughs You can build friendships with the townsfolk. laughs You know what I would like to imagine? I’d like to imagine myself playing south. (0:31:20) Al: There you go, name sorted. (0:31:31) Al: Imagine that. Southfield. This might be the game I’m most excited for. (0:31:43) Kev: It feels like the most unique thing in this space of gaming in a while (0:31:49) Al: I don’t play many early access games but I feel like I might need to play (0:31:54) Kev: They had a demo which felt like it could have been an early access game because it was so big you couldn’t save (0:32:01) Al: - Well, that’s the thing. (0:32:02) Al: Well, that’s the thing. (0:32:03) Al: ‘Cause I listened to you and Johnny (0:32:04) Al: talking about “Southfield”. (0:32:06) Al: Was it you that played it or was it Johnny that played it? (0:32:06) Kev: I played it. (0:32:08) Al: You played it. (0:32:09) Al: I heard you talking about it on that demos episode. (0:32:11) Kev: Yeah. Yeah. (0:32:12) Al: And based on that, yeah, (0:32:14) Al: I just feel like this early access feels like (0:32:18) Kev: I- I can easily see that I- I feel strongly that will be. (0:32:23) Kev: Um, well, o- (0:32:24) Al: which is, and I feel like this piece of news actually encourages me more about that, that (0:32:30) Al: they actually care about how it works, is they’ve said that the multiplayer is not coming to early (0:32:34) Al: access at launch. I’ll just read out their quote. “Southfield was originally conceived as a single (0:32:40) Al: player experience, but as soon as we started playtesting the game, people told us they would (0:32:44) Al: love to share this island with friends. We agree, and that’s why multiplayer has become part of our (0:32:48) Al: roadmap for a while. However, multiplayer engineering is one of the most complex things (0:32:53) Al: things to pull off at a relative rate. (0:32:54) Al: small development team meaning we’ve had to make some pretty tough decisions and one of those is to (0:32:58) Al: not include multiplayer early access launch so I feel like the fact that they realize that (0:33:04) Al: means that well one I suspect they’re probably pretty close to early access (0:33:08) Kev: Yup. Well I mean heck, I agree. I mean like for a game to release a pre-early access demo like that (0:33:10) Al: and two it means that they want they want the early access to be (0:33:19) Kev: and to be that solid like I think they care a lot. Not only that, they say they want to leave early (0:33:25) Kev: access in 2025 right? Which is pretty close. So yeah the early access should be dropping pretty (0:33:32) Kev: soon I imagine. You know what? Like I think it’s cool they want to do multiplayer, I get that. (0:33:38) Kev: I’d be uh… I’d be okay if they dropped the 1.0 without multiplayer because I just… (0:33:45) Al: - Yeah, I think I understand that. (0:33:47) Al: I think I also understand why they would want (0:33:49) Al: to get it in for 1.0, but yeah, honestly, (0:33:53) Al: I would say make that the last thing you add. (0:33:56) Al: If you want it to be in 1.0, make it the 1.0, (0:33:59) Al: like add it in right at the end, like make it, (0:34:01) Al: this is the, like, ‘cause that I think becomes (0:34:04) Al: a really big thing to bring people back. (0:34:06) Al: ‘Cause like we’ve talked about this before (0:34:07) Al: where the problem with early access (0:34:10) Al: is you’re splitting out your release into multiple releases. (0:34:14) Kev: Right. (0:34:14) Al: So there’s less like. (0:34:15) Al: The reason for people to come back, but I think I think if you if you have something (0:34:22) Al: like multiplayer, I think multiplayer is big enough that if you have that as the 1.0 feet, (0:34:27) Al: the big 1.0 feature that brings people back who have previously played it. (0:34:32) Kev: Yep, okay (0:34:34) Al: But we’ll see, but they’ve also said there’s going to be a few features that were coming (0:34:38) Al: later in early access that they’ve moved to the early access launch. (0:34:43) Al: They say to compensate, but I’m like, I don’t think. (0:34:45) Al: You need to compensate for that. (0:34:46) Kev: No, they really don’t (0:34:46) Al: I don’t think anybody care. (0:34:48) Al: Like some people, some people care, but like it’s early access. (0:34:50) Al: What are you going to do? (0:34:51) Kev: Yeah, and like I can’t stress how much of a game it feels like there is plenty in there (0:35:00) Al: every time they post something about this game I’m more excited for it like the different crops like (0:35:06) Kev: I mean, that’s the core concept of the game, absolutely ridiculous and it’s great. (0:35:06) Al: there’s one that you can eat that makes you go on fire and stuff like that it’s just absolutely. (0:35:20) Kev: I love being a gun drop guy. (0:35:24) Kev: Stay wibbly, flop in the Southfield team, that’s how they sign off, I like that. (0:35:26) Al: Yeah well that’s the thing they’re doing everything right right they’re doing things well they’re (0:35:32) Kev: They are doing it. (0:35:34) Al: doing some different things while still adding to like the stuff that we like so I am I’m (0:35:42) Al: all for in for this. Speaking of doing everything right Stardew Valley we have an article with (0:35:54) Al: an interview with… (0:35:56) Al: concerned ape about stardew valley and I just want to pick out (0:35:59) Kev: We learned where the CONCERNED comes from! (0:36:04) Al: I want to pick out just a couple things couple quotes from this article to talk about (0:36:09) Al: so the first one is they say barone that’s concerned ape it’s called eric barone barone (0:36:15) Al: now works with the team on stardew valley’s more technical aspects and he wanted 1.6 to focus on (0:36:20) Al: technical tweets and tweaks and nothing more side note I remember him saying about that when he (0:36:26) Al: was coming he was like it’s mostly going to be stuff for mods and that’s how that turned out (0:36:31) Kev: Uh-huh. Thank you! (0:36:33) Al: the quote continues but then he began to dread what fans might think if he didn’t go all out on (0:36:38) Al: yet another update i’m a little bit sad about this I have like mixed feelings on this I think (0:36:43) Al: the way that this is worded makes it sound like he felt he couldn’t do an update that (0:36:47) Al: didn’t include a bunch of new content and I think that’s sad (0:36:50) Kev: - Yeah. I mean, I just think like, (0:36:53) Kev: so I think that’s pretty much the case (0:36:56) Kev: and I’m starting to get the feeling concerned ape (0:36:58) Kev: is like very, well, I mean, not just starting, (0:37:01) Kev: like I think it’s been apparent. (0:37:02) Kev: He’s a very perfectionist-esque person, right? (0:37:07) Kev: Where he’s, or he puts a lot of pressure on himself, (0:37:10) Kev: let’s say, right? (0:37:11) Kev: He’s very demanding of himself and his work, right? (0:37:14) Kev: Like I think the other example I can point to (0:37:17) Kev: is Sakurai in Smash Bros, right? (0:37:21) Kev: You went to insane levels to make those games amazing. (0:37:24) Kev: And they’re incredible, don’t get me wrong. (0:37:25) Kev: But like, I don’t know if you heard, (0:37:27) Kev: at one point Sakurai went into the office (0:37:31) Kev: with an IV drip because he was feeling sick, (0:37:33) Al: yeah I yeah I suspect that concern date probably has a healthier work-life balance (0:37:33) Kev: but he still wanted to work. (0:37:39) Al: is is what I would say (0:37:39) Kev: Hopefully, hopefully, right? (0:37:42) Kev: That’s, I just don’t want to go to that, of course. (0:37:43) Kev: Right? Like that’s the extreme. (0:37:45) Kev: I hope he doesn’t get to that point. (0:37:45) Al: yeah yeah nobody should ever get to that point if you if you find yourself on an ivy drip in work (0:37:53) Al: that’s the point to say you’ve gone too far right you probably should have you’ve probably gone too (0:37:58) Al: far a couple years earlier right this isn’t the point where you’ve gone too far but this is the (0:38:03) Al: point to realize that you’ve gone too far because that’s ridiculous so I think then there’s another (0:38:08) Al: quote later on from concerned ape and he says once I open once I reopen the book on stardew (0:38:15) Al: I always have a hard time closing it again because I always want to add more things make it better (0:38:21) Al: make it cooler make people happy it’s exciting every single thing i’m adding i’m thinking about (0:38:26) Al: how people are going to play this and talk about it and love it it’s going to be part of their (0:38:31) Al: expedience. It could make a memory that they might… (0:38:34) Al: That’s a special thing. It’s hard for me to not want to do that. (0:38:38) Al: So when I read the first bit, I was like, “Oh, I really hope he’s not doing this because he feels he has to.” (0:38:43) Al: Then I read the second bit and went, “No, he does have to. His brain won’t let him stop.” (0:38:47) Kev: Yep (0:38:51) Kev: Yep, right and like again our Sakurai the thing that Sakurai example is an extreme example (0:38:57) Kev: But I think it’s the same sort of like mental route right where it has to be (0:39:03) Kev: Exactly how they want it to be or whatever (0:39:06) Kev: And that can be a dangerous road. So, you know, I just hope he’s taking care of himself. That’s the main thing, right? (0:39:12) Kev: Like clearly he’s finding success. He’s making money. So, you know, I’m not worried about that (0:39:20) Al: yeah there’s there’s another there’s other bits in the article which i’ll post um you know because (0:39:26) Al: people might find it interesting um but uh one other thing just quickly is that he there’s a (0:39:33) Al: hint that maybe there could be another update coming um that would have input from the team (0:39:40) Al: that he’s created around uh around stardew because it’s it’s now not just him working on it he’s got (0:39:46) Al: more people doing it, but he kind of debates, he (0:39:50) Al: basically debates whether he could actually do that or not because like could he actually (0:39:56) Al: let people do it without then getting involved himself and he’s you know trying to you know be (0:40:02) Kev: I’m going to say, “No, he can’t.” (0:40:03) Al: like oh yeah there is there is there was one point i’d remember this at the time nearly two years ago (0:40:12) Al: now there was a tweet from him replying to someone so much of his news is just like posting random (0:40:18) Kev: three word tweets (0:40:18) Al: replies to people on Twitter. (0:40:20) Al: So someone asked him two years ago, June 2022, “Will Stars You Get Future Updates?” (0:40:28) Al: And he replies and says “1.6, yes, but it’s mostly a modding focused update, (0:40:33) Al: makes modders lives easier. There will be some new content but it won’t be huge.” (0:40:36) Kev: Things that aged poorly (0:40:39) Al: And then he says “1.6, who knows? 1.7, who knows?” (0:40:46) Al: So yeah, I think that I really hope. (0:40:50) Al: he does it because he likes it and because he wants to not because he feels like he needs to and (0:40:54) Kev: Like, I’m sure he likes it, like, these aren’t mutually exclusive, right? (0:41:00) Al: you’re you’re you’re right I just I don’t I want him I yeah I know I that’s just my point (0:41:06) Kev: Yeah, I know I get it, right? (0:41:06) Al: I i don’t want him to feel like he has to because he has given us enough I don’t care what other (0:41:11) Al: people say he has given us enough in this game right like if he wants to do more do it absolutely (0:41:14) Kev: Absolutely, like, well, here’s the thing, I don’t think anyone will ever say that he hasn’t given us enough in Stardew. (0:41:20) Al: because people require it oh no there will be some people because some people (0:41:24) Kev: Well, okay, well, yeah, you’re right. Okay, well, okay, the vast majority of people, right, the general, like, of course, there’s always exceptions and outliers, but I think the general discourse, I’ve never heard anyone say otherwise about Stardew. (0:41:27) Al: there’s always some stupid people (0:41:40) Kev: But, I think the bigger problem is going to be his own inner voice. (0:41:44) Al: Let’s see if Haunted Chocolates of the Year ever actually releases. (0:41:44) Kev: That’s my concern. (0:41:46) Kev: But, we’ll see. (0:41:46) Kev: Just don’t… (0:41:48) Kev: Stay tuned for our “Concerned About Concern Day” segments. (0:41:58) Al: So our last piece of news before, we’ve got a couple of new games, but the last piece (0:42:01) Al: of news before that is some news about Phoenix Labs, which is the developer of Faefarm and (0:42:08) Al: Dauntless. (0:42:09) Al: They’ve announced that they’ve cancelled all of their projects, except… (0:42:14) Al: I don’t think we have… over a hundred people is the kind of number I’ve seen from sources (0:42:19) Kev: How many are we talking? (0:42:22) Kev: Ooooh, that’s a lot. (0:42:29) Al: but I don’t think we have any concrete numbers. (0:42:34) Al: But yeah this is interesting on multiple levels. (0:42:36) Al: So one, interesting that they’re like “oh the only two things that we’re going to continue (0:42:41) Al: doing our Dauntless and Fae Farm. (0:42:44) Al: Right, okay, I didn’t realize Fae Farm was successful. (0:42:49) Al: Two, their statement talks about them being live service games. (0:42:54) Al: I don’t think Fae Farm’s a live service game. (0:42:58) Al: Like they have updates that they’re doing but that’s not what live service is, right? (0:43:09) Al: And obviously it’s really sad that a bunch of people have been laid off. (0:43:12) Al: Obviously it goes with. (0:43:14) Al: I don’t know what to say but I need to say it anyway. (0:43:15) Kev: yeah so uh clearly right like should I say my piece okay this yeah I mean like obviously i (0:43:21) Al: Yeah, go for it. (0:43:25) Kev: feel bad for them right and like yeah yeah like I i of course I get it get into all that like it’s (0:43:26) Al: Anti-Capitalism rant. (0:43:28) Al: Anti-Capitalism rant. (0:43:33) Kev: I just want to share the like I forgot to mention earlier so when I got laid off this earlier this (0:43:39) Kev: week um first of all it came out of left field I didn’t get a two weeks notice just then in there (0:43:45) Kev: you an extra two weeks of pay but working out right now and obviously like that sucked in like (0:43:51) Kev: even just trying to process that that moment right um but the really sucky part came uh (0:43:58) Kev: came just a bit later so it was around lunch time when they called me in and they they let me know (0:44:03) Kev: or whatever and gave me paperwork yada yada and so I went the first thing I did was just go out (0:44:07) Kev: because I hadn’t had lunch yet I went to go out grab a sandwich and kind of process my own thoughts (0:44:12) Kev: at that moment, right? So then I went back in… (0:44:15) Kev: to the office and started going around talking to some of the people I was (0:44:20) Kev: friends with and such and just letting people know and getting phone contact (0:44:24) Kev: numbers and things like that, right? But then this is what killed me, like as I (0:44:31) Kev: was sitting at my desk after sitting down getting ready to pack up my stuff (0:44:35) Kev: the guy who fired me who was in charge that he comes up to me and he says okay (0:44:41) Kev: I need you to leave the building like right now like my god (0:44:45) Kev: Goodness like I didn’t respond at that moment. I was just I was still such in shock, but I think I just like okay (0:44:50) Kev: Wow the the (0:44:53) Kev: insensitivity of that right and just (0:44:56) Kev: Well, it feels so bad and this this again (0:44:59) Kev: This is a very big company so clearly Phoenix Games or whatever this thing is called (0:45:04) Kev: fairly large for having being able a Phoenix Labs being able to fire hundreds of people right like I’m sure they weren’t very (0:45:13) Kev: sensitive about those layoffs either. (0:45:15) Kev: I’m guessing they aren’t, but… (0:45:15) Al: No, you can’t you can’t be when there’s that many people you’re laying off like not not (0:45:19) Kev: Exactly, right? (0:45:21) Al: if you’re going to do it like that right like it’s just not possible. And apparently some (0:45:22) Kev: Right, exactly, right. (0:45:24) Kev: And so that’s just… (0:45:26) Al: some people were laid off like apparently according to one of insider they were planning (0:45:32) Al: on announcing one of their games in three weeks and so there’s a bunch of people who (0:45:37) Al: have been for the last couple of months

Mr. Yuri Lowenthal is a Martial Arts Practitioner and Enthusiast. He appeared as the voice actor for Spiderman, Goku, and Superman to say the least. I went to New York from Japan and while I was there, I've found a Kung Fu and Wushu school. I knew after checking out the school, I finally found what I really love about Martial Arts. It had that fluid quality that I wanted. They were not focusing on sparring all the time. The Chinese instructor just wanted people to study Kung Fu. Mr. Yuri Lowenthal - Episode 814 Mr. Yuri Lowenthal, a self-proclaimed nerdy kid, grew up in the 80s as Kung Fu movies and Anime started to gain popularity.

Lowenthal's love for Japanese culture led him to Japan, where he studied the language and joined a Shaolin Kempo Club. He even fronted an American music band at the invitation of one of the Japanese students he met. At present, when Mr. Yuri Lowenthal has free time, he does voice acting for our most beloved characters in animated films and games such as Spiderman, Goku, Superman, Final Fantasy and so much more.

It takes awhile for Invisible Kid to also turn his clothes invisible but he eventually manages to do so as they fight off a time traveling terrorist organization hellbent on bringing order to the universe by any means necessary. Robinson spoke with us about why the ‘Legion of Super-Heroes‘ is significant to modern storytelling even if we reach into the future and that the idea of dystopian or utopian are not will be so long as we remain hopeful.

Cevin Soling's credits include: “The Gilligan Manifesto,” “The War on Kids,” which was honored as the best educational documentary at the New York Independent Film and Video Festival and was broadcast on Pivot, The Documentary Channel, and The Sundance Channel. “A Hole in the Head,” which documented the potential benefits of boring a hole in one's skull, aired on The Learning Channel. “Ikland” documented Soling's efforts to rediscover the lost Ik tribe of northern Uganda, who were famously disparaged in the early 1970s as the worst people in the world. The NY Times and other major media outlets heralded the film. Among his animation works is “Boris the Dog,” which premiered on MTV. Soling is currently working on “The Summer of Hate,” a documentary on the Beatles' controversial observations on religion and racism during their 1966 tour of America.Soling has written a series of nine illustrated books under the heading of “The Rumpleville Chronicles.” Prominent publishing industry reviewer ForeWord Magazine described the books as such: “These quick bursts of cracked brilliance, these splintered bedtime stories for grown folks, have the power to make readers laugh, and then think, then scoff at the futility of thinking.”One of the books "Tiffany Brittany Brooke" has been made into an animated short film. Soling wrote, directed, and produced the 15-minute film. Yuri Lowenthal and Tara Platt, whose voices are featured in Marvel's “Spiderman” video game, provided voice talent. Borrero designed the artwork, and Paul Essenhigh created the animation.

Moments like this are truly surreal and we be able to have them if it weren't for YOU, our supporters, so thank you so much. This week a VERY special guest has dropped by The Sphere, Yuri Lowenthal! Yuri has a dense catalogue but some ways you may recognize his vibrating vocal chords are: Prince of Persia, Teenage Ben Tenyson, Sasuke Uchiha, and Insomniac's Spider-Man/Peter Parker! We chat about quite alot of things in this episode and it became very clear, Yuri needs to come back and mayhaps that'll be a topic based one!

This is an episode from last year. In case you missed it, we chat with Yuri Lowenthal about his role in Marvel's Spider-Man on PS4, getting details on the process of how that process went, and even some exclusive details that he hasn't shared with anyone up until now.

Extra episode this week! Hot on the heels of our deluge of bonus episodes last week from the first DC in DC event, we've got one more surprise. That event kicked off with a premiere screening of Batman: Gotham by Gaslight. Before the screening, a big chunk of the cast and creative team behind the film did some roundtable interviews, and then we all had a chance to watch the film on the big screen at the Newseum. On this episode, we're bringing you the roundtable interviews from Bruce Greenwood (Bruce Wayne/Batman), Scott Patterson (James Gordon), Yuri Lowenthal (Harvey Dent), Bruce Timm (executive producer), and Jim Krieg (screenwriter). We've had Timm and Krieg on the show before when we brought you the media interviews from last year's New York Comic-Con (that episode also features director Sam Liu). For a full blast of Gotham by Gaslight, I highly recommend listening to both episodes and then immediately watching the film. But I'm biased.

Actor Yuri Lowenthal, the voices of Alucard from Castlevania, Prince from the Prince of Persia, and the male character from Sunset Overdrive talks about breaking into acting, growing up in Nashville, how DC Hardcore changed his life, PMA,  his time in West Africa, Roddy Piper, Shelf Life, Bad Brains,  WWE Films, Saints Row, casting stories,  taking chances in video games, Insomniac, John Carpenter's "They Live" and so much more. KG talks about Detroit family, Patreon, Juggalo Day, Ron Funches, Crazy Mary Dobson and Kaizen.
