Hello everybody, and welcome to another episode of the Elder Trolls Gaming podcast. If you are new and joining us today, we are three brothers who get together and talk about gaming. We may also tech talk, tech, TV movies, and other nerdy geeky stuff too, but we never really do we should. What we should do is have an episode about the new Fallout series. That would be cool. That would be cool, But I've never played the games, so either I had I can talk about tech today, I can talk about tech cool. But first off, I am nasty night and I am take it easy John O. Now I'm Dan dolfh the Wise, and today we will be continuing the AI video game character a Battle Royal fighting tournament thing. Uh, what's going on? It's going to be a doozy of a fight. Last week was a doozy, or two weeks ago was a doozy, but this one is going to be ridiculous. It's actually probably gonna be pretty stupid if you think about it. I don't know if I want. I don't know if I want to tell it now because I've made a little pre lower story that kind of goes into it. Kind of cool guy, You guys will hear it, don'try Okay, But first anything going on? What's up? What's up? Well? I got a new tech toy. I got tech toys. We talked about tech sometimes, you know sometimes, Well, I think I'd say we talked about tech more than we do TVs at movies. So maybe we should change that. We may also talk tech. Yeah, can we definitely talk about the amount of fucking movies we quote? I think covers the base of talking about movies. Oh, I don't know. I think we're definitely pretty strong on the movies. Well, I got a new set of speakers boys for my home theater. A new set of speakers set it for best Buy left center right LCR, we call it in the home theater. I got a new LCR. No, not best Buy, just got them on Amazon A Mason man, see you later, best By? Like, why do we even need best Buy anymore? You know? I mean sometimes they have sales and deals and whatnot. I bought my TV at best Buy, you know, but I suppose. But yeah, So I had previously a set of towers, old towers like from like I don't know, two thousand and ten, like an old set of POLP towers and a shitty pulp center channel, cheap entry level stuff okay, poke poke audio, and my room is small, so they didn't really like the towers are not a great fit in there. It's like they look huge. They're just taking up space. You don't really need towers. First of all, anyone listening here, tower speakers are for people who don't have subwiffers, first of all, and just like want to listen to music, you know, like in a stereo because they point zero, Like do they have multiple cones in there? Yeah? Yeah, so they got a base cone and a medium and a mid town drivers dry drivers. That's what I'm looking for. Yes, so yeah, they're supposed to have a full range of sound. Right, So it's for people who don't want a subwffer, don't have you know, room for suburbs. They just want a couple of towers you know boom. Okay, So like so something with a soundbar, but the soundbars usually come with the subs. What are you talking about? Soundbar? What if you had a soundbar and then some tower speakers? No, no, no, why would you do that sound far? First of all, no one should use sound bars. Okay, yeah I do, But anyway, I got rid of them, and I got a nice set of bookshelves because I have a suble for already, bookshelf speakers. Not a pair of bookshelves, No, yeah, not a pair of bookshelves, a bookshelf speakers. I can't replace my speakers with bookshelves. They sound great if they don't sound like anything. An, I got a pair of CAF that's k E f Q three fifties with a matching center channel. They look nice. They look so nice. Did you try it yet? Oh yeah, they're set up. We got to watch them, Dune. They're set up, and they make the room just they make it look nicer in there. It's less space, It takes up less I space, you know visual Collis. Before you had your tower speakers and half the speakers was getting blocked by the couch anyway. Yeah, on the left side, my little left tower was just being blocked. Not that the driver's at the top anyway, but the port was at the bottom, at the front, the base port. But yeah, so now they're perfectly I got full range from each of my speakers going at me, nothing blocked by the couch. Got some nice stands for them. Oh she looks sexy, liks me is sexy. Now, I just need to update my receiver because it's just on the cusp. I think of not really being able to power them, you know. I feel like they're because I have to turn it way up now because they're not as sensitive as the old speakers, so I have to turn the volume up and get a little more juice to them. And I feel like with a better amp or a better receiver, it would really just push them better, you know. But they sound sweet. You know, Hey, you get a good set of stereo. I don't know if you at this Daniel with your monitors, but a good set of speakers has really good imaging and really good center a center image, you know, you know the center image, like you you test that. You put it in stereo and you listen. You position them right and you listen and it should sound like the sound is coming straight right at your nose at your TV. Yeah, from your TV. And that's I did that, and I turned it up and I was like, wow, this is just like lighting, just like lighting. See, It's just like it sounded like this TV was the sound was coming straight out of my TV, and it was like I always wonder if that's if you can improve that by like just doing more math and angling and distancing and shit. M hmm, because like, but I tried my soundstage. Yeah, I tried my best to angle my monitors where I sit and use the triangle roule like that. It's about a three foot by three foot for me where I sit, so and I've tried to like measure them and make sure they're the same depth this way, because like I'm just eyeballing it. So I have no idea if maybe one speaker is a little more forward than talking about Yeah, So I've like used a measuring tape to kind of like see if I can if there's a line. But it's hard speaker. Each speaker could be manufactured differently and might be off just a tiny bit from the other one. Yeah, but generally that's why they have that's why they have those little wands that you can check the Yeah, it would be cool to have somebody do it for me, because I don't know what the fuck I'm doing. But then but then like I don't know one of the moves or something. It's just like, oh my god, like because I nudge them all the time accidentally, and I'll and I'll have to like kind of reposition and make sure they're still in check, but you can do it. When I listen, I do notice that, Yeah, it does generally sound like it's coming from like you know, because I have my two monitors like screens. It sounds like it's coming from right right in between the two monitors in the center. So I think, I'm okay. I don't feel anything off kilter or anything, so yeah, anyway, it's good. My next will be like new, a new receiver, new amp there, but that's very expensive, so we'll see, because like right now, I also need a new receiver because my PS five. I'm putting my PS five through my receiver and it doesn't do one hundred and twenty hurts and it doesn't do VRR, so it can't pass that through, so I can't use VRR or any of the like HDMI two point one stuff. How old is a receiver? Fucking old? Like ten years? Okay, so it's also old and pretty bottom of the line. It's just so that would be another reason why I would get a new receiver. But like, a new receiver is fucking expensive, especially like a nice one with like the nice room correction, software tech. That's what it's all about. Sech and the home theater is all about room correction. That's the biggest thing, room correction. Who's got the best room correction? You know? And someun some of the receivers have it built in, have the really good one built in. The AI, bounce it around and then measure and yep, you get a little microphone lit AI. Get the AI in your sound too. They eq everything. They measure your room everything. It measures the distances, the frequencies everything. See where you get lumps and dips and whatever, and that tries to eq it out. And that's what it's all about. And then people spend lots of money just doing that manually, like with aftermarket DSPs and shit. It's fucking wild. Yep, guys, come over watch done there? Should? I should? I'm going over to Greg's house tonight where I set up the one hundred inch. Oh I'm coming to Oh you're coming to watch the game? I invited myself? Perfect, So yeah, I got a one hundred inch set up over there. We got the full Paradigm five point one point two Dolby ATMOS system set up there. He spent a lot of money. He spent a lot of money, and I know millions. I told him what to buy and we set it up like last weekend. Fucking that thing is bright, dude, that projector is bright the daytime. It's the daytime scenes. The daytime scenes are they look unbelievable. But the nighttime scenes, the darker scenes, is where the flaws come out. Obviously. Well, you know it would be cool if they don't project any of the darkness. They just project what is light. There's no technology that I just make like a wall in the back. They do that, though, but the light bleeds. It's like light bleeds. Oh, you can't focus. You can't just focus a certain spot. It's still rather no lead one inch. What if you get a wall screen that is like kind of three D in a way where the light will fill like three D holes. The light doesn't lead like you are bizarre. Speaking of projectors, I also got one. Oh okay cool. It was one of those cheap Amazon ones, the tany DP Amazon projectors. I got it for forty percent off because I get to put it outside. I'm gonna put it on the wall of the house outside so when we have a fire, we can put in the game yard. That's going to project your webcam wall on the house the house wall. No, no, no, I'll have one of those pulled down screens like attached to the wall. Oh okay, okay. It's like it's got like a waterproof cover on it and it like zips down. I just pull it down and then we'll project it on there. Because last time we had a fire out there, I was trying to watch the hockey game and I had like this. I brought the TV outside. I hooked up all these power cables. I was like, oh my cat, it's just a mess. So this time we'll just have it on there. We'll have some drinks, the fire's gone, barbecue, and at like nine o'clock at night, it'll be good, good, big good time. You brought the TV outside, Yeah, well I have like, no, not my old lead. I wouldn't move my old head. Just like a shitty like seven to twenty p TV I have, oh yeah, yeah. And I had p Q and Eric over because I was building Eric's new computer and they were trying to I was like, okay, well we're gonna test video games on this thing to see how it goes. So we hooked up the switch and we were playing like switch games on it, but the input lag to the projector was like really bad. Yeah, but it said gaming and outside projector. I was like, oh, that sucks because I was I was like, oh, let's play Mario. Was there a gaming mode that you can put it in? I have to I have to check her. I have to go through this. I didn't see. It's not going to be great like the projectors. That's another thing. They're not very good. That sucks because I was like, oh, let's play Mario like the New Wonders on the like whatever in screen it is. It's weird that you would notice it in a game like Mario. That must be really bad. No, but like you jump and like he's like slide you know how you jump and he kind of like slides a bit right and you have to like correct and then jump onto your next platforms and like that is really bad. You're like, she's like yeah, And then they were trying to play Battle Toads like old Battle Toads and they said it was just awful. They're just fucking bad. So I'll probably just use it to watch stuff in the backyard and maybe if if album has her friends upstairs or vice versa. Then I'll go just go downstairs watch a TV or movie or the game instead of or I can work out in front of the projector. You know, you should put it in behind put your screen behind a little bit of Jane Fonda. Also, I was wondering, do you think it would work if I would use the projector as a background for my photography. Eh, I could like put different backgrounds on the projector and then alter it later, just like if someone's like, oh, I want like a I want like a window background looking over a city scape, and I'm like, okay, and I put it up on the projector put it behind them. Why don't you just do that in post? Because cutting them out looks really bad? Right, it'll always look bad. I don't care who you are. I don't know. It depends how right it is. Probably you wouldn't capture. It's not a camera very well, you know anyway, do you know anything new? Well, you know, I've been I've been doing some some programs at work and finally doing my job that I'm getting paid for. So I did like a Beatles program, which is really fun. So I wrote, I wrote, like ten Beatles songs. I wrote some Beatles song the hell do you think you Are? I practiced like twelve Beatles songs or something, and then I'm kind of just like shopping around different units and kind of singing it for different groups and they seem to be enjoying it. I don't know, but it's nice to kind of finally be doing music stuff. But I'm all spend some more time. Yeah, yeah, there's no idea, and I'm like, I'm facing like a crossroads. I'm like I could lie or I could tell the truth. I'm like, yes, I did right. They're like liar Beatles, Like, damn it, I haven't spending more time in the studio to working on something right now. That's kind of coming together song wise, so kind of neat because I'm actually doing it as I record, as opposed to writing a song at a piano and being like okay, so the song is like done, and then taking it into the studio and then building it that way. Instead, I'm just kind of letting the ideas come in a sandbox mode kind of thing and just like oh I like this, I like this, and I'll record some vocals and play around with that for the chorus. And just kind of building it while I'm recording, which I haven't done before, and I feel like it's coming together better than all my other song recording and writing experiences. So I might just kind of fuck with that a little bit and hopefully something comes out of it. But that's pretty much a little bit of gaming, you know. Nothing too new to report. Got my new car coming in soon. It's a first week in May, hopefully if everything lands on time from Japan. Oh you got that boat? Yeah, they gave me the tracking number. I haven't looked at it yet. I should check. I had to like sign the boat, yeah, super and folks, I can never did that me. Fuck no. I had to find the boat. I had to see when it left. And then you can watch the little boat and then it'll tell you if it's transferring boats. I remember watching my boat got stuck in like this channel. It's like a puddle the Panama Canal. Yeah, and I was like, what the fun hasn't moved in like two weeks the canal? The canal like in three body problem. Well, that's kind of the good show thing I'm that's kind of the thing I'm hoping not to happen that's what I mean by like, if everything goes well, I should have it by the first week of May, because that's when they projected. But yeah, they gave me the tracking number, they gave me the name of the boat and everything. Oh wow. I was like, Oh, that's kind of cool. So that is cool. Yeah, exciting because driving driving home for with my echo and I'm just like, just drive that thing off a fucking cliff. What are you gonna do with it? When you turn the inner lights on, like the dash lights, my gearsh engine lights on sometimes and my gas your feet fall, his engine shuts off when he turns on his headlights. What are you going to have to sell it? So I have to hit the dash for the gas light to come on, but now that's not working anymore. So I'm driving home nine o'clock at night from Ottawa and I'm just like, and I can't see how much gas I have, but every time I hit the center console the lights will come on, like the gear shifting lights. I'm like, oh, at least there's that, And then sometimes the sounds like my sunfire when I sometimes the lights with the heater like the heater lights, the dash lights on the heater and the radio and shit don't come on. So I have no idea like how hot I have something unless I like shine my light on my phone light on it. But yeah, I'm getting very, very fucking tired of this car and the winter tires. My back right tire I constantly have to fill with air pretty much every other day. I have to fill it up to like thirty four PSI or whatever. It keeps dropping down to like twenty in like two or three days. And I'm like, I'm not going to go spend money on fixing this tire, patching it up or the rim, I should say, just for happening again. Yeah, I get some of that green shit from Canadian tire. Oh yeah, I use I must have used a thousand of those bottles in my lifetime. Anyway, That's that's pretty much it. I'm looking around to see I there's anything else, but I don't. I don't think so cool. All right, let's talk video games now into game time. Alright, everybody, let's talk about some video games and what we've been playing. I'm gonna start, okay, Oh, I beat Dragon's Dogma two m hm, and I went with the true ending quote unquote true where it extends the game for another handful of hours, un like this. Uh huh, it's like alternate universe thing. Yeah, I'm not gonna get in too much of it, but it like extends the game for a little bit longer and makes you kind of flesh out some stuff that was left over. Uh, pretty cool. The ending was cool. I enjoyed it. What a game, very very cool game. I'll probably go I actually probably replay it in the new game plus just because I just love going around in that world. But hm, until well, then after DD two Dragon's Dogma two, I became lost. I struggled to find a game to start playing, you know, like I was just like clicking around, just said. I sit at my computer for like an hour, starting and stopping games like I didn't know what to play. Then all this hubbub about Fallout started because of the TV show, And then like the sheep I am the sheep, the ship the sheep I am. I also want to start a Fallout game. I've never played Fallout one, two, three, or Las Vegas or New Vegas. Sorry. I did play a little bit of Fallout four, but then I stopped. But now I went back and I have a falloout New Vegas on Steam from like I don't know how many years ago I bought that, but I spun that up. It does not work, did not work on my computer, did not work on my Legion go, and I was like, oh my god, because so old. And they just dropped all support for it as of like Windows maybe seven or eight, so like Windows eleven. Trying to get that thing to work on Windows eleven, I went through so much shit. I was like doing a bunch of crap and it would not work. And if it did work, it was like two frames per second like slideshow, like really bad. I was like, what the fuck is going on? So then I scoured the modding forums and all these moders have like revitalized this game where they've come out with mod like a mod pack, where it's just fixes for the game, right, so you just apply this mod and it fixes the game to like today's standards. So I applied that mod. I actually have a YouTube video on how if you're getting like the freezing at the loading screen issue, I show you how to install the mod to fix that once it goes into the game. After that, it's like a slideshoke like fifteen fps. It's brutal. So I downloaded a few more fixes, another mod pack with the fixes. But still, if you're running the game in full screen, you're not going to get your maxim fps for whatever reason, I don't know. So how I'm running it now is in windowed mode, like max windowed mode. So I had to dial in my resolution, the custom resolution in the configuration file to max the screen out on my monitor to make it look like it's full screen, you know what I mean. And then it works. The fps is proper and it works. So I've been playing it like that on my Legion Go and I'm I'm like three or three hours in New Vegas, New Vegas. Yeah, it's pretty cool with Matthew Perry when he loves take place in like the timeline. What's this timeline? Well, it's all two hundred years after I think, So each each follow it's like two hundred and three years later, two hundred and four years later, two hundred and five years later, right, like each follout is like a year apart from each other. But it's two hundred years after the initial bombing I think. And the show takes place after all the games. Yeah, but different parts of the country. So Vegas, New Vegas obviously is Vegas. Then there's Falling. Four is in Boston, followed three's another East coast I think, like Washington or I think Washington yet, but they all take place different parts of the country, a little bit between each other. But it's like two hundred years after the initial bombing, right, so followed in New Vegas. You're not a vault dweller, so you're not coming out of the vault. You're just a courier that has been shot in the head by some like bandits or something like that because they were after the package you were holding, I think. And so now you were you're brought back to life or fixed by this doctor and now you're out looking for who shot you and why they shot you. So that's what I'm doing now. So I just I just helped defend a little town from some from some bandits. But it's cool. It's really like the controls are really gross, Like you can tell it's like, oh, like trying to shoot the guns. It's like really no, no, no, I'm playing on the Legion go oh, but like Legion ghos. It's about fifty fps on max settings, pretty good, pretty good. I'm just playing around. It feels good, like what made you start with New Vegas then, as opposed to anything else because I had it on Steam. I'll play a Steam game over a Windows app Windows game Pass game any day of the week because that app is absolute trash. But you can't like they all they're all on the game Pass app. But I was also getting the same issue freezing in the loading screen on the game Pass version as well, which my fix also works for. So if anybody's having that issue and it's freezing on the loading screen, hit over to our YouTube. I've got a lot two minute video there about how to fix that. Yeah. Other than that, well I just twenty six that's for sure. But it was like playing the Elder Scrolls Online, but follow it's like the most recent thing and it's all online, and it's got the same kind of menus, like speech menus and stuff as Elder Scrolls Online, and it's got the same concept where you're just playing a follow out game, but it's all on the internet. It's all online and you can like join instances with people defeating like bosses and monster hordes and shit like that. But there's also full full full fleshed out quest lines too, like just like the single player games, and the graphics are probably the best followout graphics I've seen. I don't know for sure. It must be. It must be because I've never seen four four. Fallout four just came out with an HD four K texture packs office. I would like to see which, Yeah, which? I like the I enjoy the follow up games. I just kind of want to see a brand spanking new one in like today's like twenty twenty four kind of thing. I watched the show. Have you watched any of the show? No? No, I have fallen behind on all the shows. Like, I kind't know. I watched the first two episodes. I'm done. I think the first one I was very long. It was like an hour and twenty minutes the first episode, and I fell asleep like three times. So it's like kind of fragmented in my brain of what happened. So maybe you can kind of Jonathan, can you tell me? Like the guy at the beginning Walton Goggins, Walt they get blown away spoilers for first episode. He's in the show. He's yeah, he's in the show. He's like the one of the main characters. Nice spoiler wall if you haven't watched the first episode. But it's just the first episode, so whatever. He comes back as the Ghoul, right, the guy with the missing nose. So I was falling asleep, I woke up, and I remember these guys in a graveyard, like digging up graves, right, and then him out, the Ghoul like comes out of the ground in a coffin. What was that because he was like chained up there. I guess I somehow, I guess someone put him there to like hold him there, okay, and like drip fed him the medicine or whatever to keep him alive, alive or whatever. Okay, he was just kind of someone did that to him, like like held him there. We don't know that yet though, I don't think so. No, Okay, that was the only thing that really bothered me. But they wanted to break to get him out to help them with some some job. The Ghoul. Yeah. Walter Walton Walton Goggins, we always think were dumb ship, big old fucking teeth on us, big forehead. He's great. All those Western shows, Yeah, Big Western, Yeah, Tombstone, Western, Tombstone in late Shanghai noon, he's in Tombstone. Isn't he No, it's too old for that. That was like early nineties. He's not. No, I'm pretty sure he was. I'm pretty sure he's in Tombstone. No, that's where the dumb sh No, the dumb ships from Shanghai Noon. That's Shanghai Noon, Okay, Shanghai non hateful late. He's in that Justified show or something. Yeah, Danny Cordery from the Office. Oh, he's in that cop show too, the one that Greg told me to watch with the corrupt, bald fat cop. Oh is he the Shield? The Shield? He's in that fucking Walton. Yeah, he's really good. It's a good show. It's so far, really good. I'm on episode five. I think, oh nice. I wasn't super impressed with the streaming quality of getting on Amazon Prime though, fine four K, I don't know. I didn't like it at all. The bit rate was not good. And it's not my internet. Okay, I have the best internet. I have very good internet. It's the best. It's their problem, not mine. Okay, I'll try the next episode. I'll try the next episode on your plex to see if I notice the difference. But from what I was streaming, it looked like every other one. I noticed that the film grain yeah, oh yeah, okay, yes, the film the Prime is very very heavy, sporadic and sometimes blurry, and it these weird artifacts. Okay. When I was streaming on Prime, I was like, this looks fucking gross, Like what is I think they're just over using the film grain. No, the film green is there, but I can see it perfectly on the other version that I was watching, and it's actually clear, whereas the on the on the stream it was kind of like blurring it and that it looked horrible. MM because I've noticed a lot of Prime shows, a lot of shows lately are really going in on that film green, like this, this has a heavy film grain. It does. It does have a heavy film Some people don't like it. I like a little bit of it. I like a little bit of film green. M Okay. I don't like it where I can like see it and I'm just like, ah, But when if I notice it just a little bit in like a nice sweeping like a way they film a certain shot and I can see a little bit subtle film grain, I enjoy that. But I don't like it in my face, Like you know what has a lot of film grain. Hook the four really the four K, the four K release of Hook, that's that's the film though, right, Like they don't put that in or anything. It's a noise for the film. Yeah yeah, I guess yeah, because it was digitally. But I find a lot of those four K remasters have tons of grain obviously because they're but they scan in the film. Yeah, they scan in the film, Actually fucking scan it in. M hm. That's crazy. You know what, they don't have a four K remaster of White Samurai or The Last Samurai, White Samurai. Can you believe that they don't have It was filmed. I looked for it like a year ago to the studio. It doesn't matter what it was filmed in. It just up to the studio to do it. They me one day. You know what, just dude, Training Day just got a four K release like two months ago. Nice thing is that's a fucking twenty three year old movie just came out. It's gonna take some time. I just hate seeing fucking random bullshit that nobody gives a ship about on four K and you're like, yeah, cool, So like Training focuses in four K, but the Last Samurai is you know what was good in four K? Mask of Zoro that was sick. They redid that in four K. That was fucking awesome. Nice freaking Catherine Zeita in that movie. Oh my god, that was extra high quality. That was peek. That was her at her Actually no, she was really good in that one with Sean Connery. Trapman, entrapman. Oh my god. I was entrapped by her and that bite that as okay, all right, getting back to gaming, are you done? Yes? Okay, well I've been playing. I started playing. You probably did too, you start playing Hearthstone again. I went through my collection and dusted a bunch of old cards, created a little deck that is way too so powerful that I won I think thirty matches out of thirty matches, So I got to platinum pretty easily. But there was also a new Battleground season which I am playing, and I didn't get as high on my own like when I was when Gillis was on. I said that I was going to try to grind the battle ground leaderboards and that didn't work out too well. I really didn't get much higher than I was at that point because the game is rigged obviously, all right, but I started playing fun Fantasy or Sorry, I kept playing Fan Fantasy seven Rebirth. This game is getting long, boys, really, I just fucking finish it. I'm almost done. There was a part main quest that I just did though, that I had to like skip through. I'm just like, I don't care about this at all, and there was like singing, and I was just like, what got this man ruined? Shit? Like, just make the original. I've already said this is the game is totally different than the original at this point, Like it's like totally totally different. But I had to just skip it. And well, here's a question. Is it so different that you would be okay with it in Game of the Year talks? It won't. I don't think. I don't think it'll be in Gaming of the Year talks. Hmm, yeah, but oh you mean because it's a remake. Yeah, is it so different that it's yeah, yeah, it's that it's very different, very very different. Like the story is all fucking different now too. It's completely different. But there was a very impressive looking scene okay, at the Golden Sauce the Golden Saucy, there was like fireworks and I went on a date with Red thirteen the dog one reason romance. I don't know how this happened. It just did. Beastiality. He showed up at my hotel door with me right now, Wow, so you had you can romance the other romance romancing, it's just your relationship was My relationship was highest with him, I guess. So he showed up. So we go hang out and go around Golden Saucer. But there was like fireworks and stuff and and they were so colorful and the brightness, the brightness on the High Sense just keeps impressing me that it was. It looked incredible. It was just wah, fireworks, woh, like nuts, really bright, colorful, fucking really cool. And I was just like, wow, this is like because the TV was I think they tested like two thousand knits two thousand knits brightness, so man, geez, yeah, well it's an old leg it doesn't get us bright but like really freaking cool. Like this TV keeps impressing me. The TV keeps impressing me. So if anyone's looking for a TV High Sense, you eight h very good. But yeah, That's where I'm at now. I think I'm a chapter twelve. I think there's fourteen chapters. So I'm almost done, but I keep just race some chocobos, you know, and go race some jocobos. They should open up the saucer to like online matchmaking and shit, well they don't. They have that in Final Fantasy fourteen. They can go to the Golden Saucer and do all this shit. Yeah, I don't know if you can race other people in the chocobos. I saw pampling fall guys in Final Fantasy fourteen, but yeah, there was like literally it was fall guys. I go to the Golden Saucer to pay other players to dance for me in their cat uniforms. Okay, that's what I do. You're probably not the only one. Probably much weirder things happened the musical in that game, much weirder things. Anyway, That's all I've been doing, Dan, Well, I'll start with a little bit of an interesting development. I don't think I told you, guys, because it happened after last time I recorded. Pretty sure. Yeah, so I finally hit year three in story Seasons of Wonderful Life. And my child, my baby toddler is now child, so she's like grown up a bit, and her like, you know, her likes have gone up and whatever, and she like talks to you and stuff, and it's kind of oh nice, kind of crazy to see that. Finally after I don't know how many hours of playing so like the first two years or whatever it is, and she's finally like running around. She's like making friends in the village and all this shit. She's wearing like different clothes and you can actually like talk to her and converse with her whatever. You go in her room and she'll have like a little cut scene. So it's kind of cool. Finally that is it's taking shape. And I've got my what is it called the amazing field in the back of the farm now, so I looked up how to do that, and you have to like create hybrid crop seeds or whatever with this plant that randomly shows up and lives in the old guy's house on your farm, and you talk to him and befriend him, and then as soon as you like reach the friendship meter height or whatever, he'll offer, hey, you know, do you want to mix those seeds? Like if you have like two crops on you or something, do you want to mix those together and create a hybrid seed? And you're like sure, And then once you do that, the old man will tell you, hey, you know, you could use that space back there for an amazing field. So it's fucking massive. So I've just opened up the window to make far more money. But now the days will just be even longer and take a lot more stamina. Now that there's no sprinklers in this game, I know that would be sweet, or even cultivators to like collect all your crops, yeah, or the like. The elves don't help you in this game. They don't. They like, no, I don't think so they haven't helped me yet. Yeah, there's only three elves. They just don't do rehipes. That's literally all they do. And they like are the ones. They kind of used the elves as the executors of the Wonders in the game, so like you know, they use the elves to kind of like tell you about the Wonders and like the Wonders are basically just in game achievements that you get like, oh, yeah, made this much money, You've found this, Maybe your kid flowers whatever, maybe you tell your kid to go do some fucking chores outside. Well that's the thing. I think that's what it's getting to. And if they don't going for France slap, so you she'll eventually help with like animals I think and stuff. Anyway, so some interesting development into that game. The two big ones were the field and finally Year three s so there's that playing obviously Dragon's Dogma two and just kind of getting to know the story a little bit and and developing, getting new armor, just leveling up, and I finally got a chance to kind of reorganize the skill palette for my mage, so I got some like fire, ice, lightning, and I don't know what the other one is, maybe a healing thing I don't really remember. Yeah, you should be you should have at least one heel, well, unless you're always hiring one heel from the no, she's usually the one healing, so so I think I have those four on her load out. And but I haven't come across a giant monster yet to test out if she's still saying we don't have any ways to what is it? What does she say we don't have any means to exploit our enemy's weakness. So that's probably I'm assuming that's why I wasn't doing so hot against these giant bosses. But maybe now that have rearranged. She might not say that, and hopefully she can use something and be like, oh, this works, and then keep using that. I fucking thief died, I guess, but like, I don't know how that happened. We just got into a fight with one of those like, uh, what are they called, those giant lizards storians? I don't know what they're called. And he just like, I don't know, we got into a little fight. Suddenly he was just gone. And usually whenever one of your party, one of your ponds like dies, it'll show you the skull on your hud and you'll be like, oh shit, they're down. I have to go get them. Oh, I probably know what happened. He just fucking I don't know, just disappeared across the bridge. Maybe I don't know. Yeah, So one time one time I was fighting and I had to run across the bridge to get to these wolves. And I don't know what the hell happened, but I think the wolf attacked the bridge or something, and the bridge collapsed behind me and killed two of my ponds. And they just dropped into the into the nothingness under the bridge, and they'll just vanish. Cool, they won't appear back up on the cliffs or anything. They'll just go away. Cool. Yeah. So then I was like, I was like, who's why am I not getting healed? And there like look around. I'm like, oh, two of my ponds are gone and there was just me and my main pond and we were fighting that way. Yeah, so that's probably what happened. They may have fallen off something where they just couldn't get well, I was gonna say, because it happened way too fast. It just was like the blink of an eye, so maybe some sort of glitch. But there was a pile of our sea on the ground. I was like, oh geez, So I guess Zooma's fucked. So I tried to go look for him again in one of the rifts, but I didn't see him. So I just had to hire another thief. And I was like, Okay, well, hopefully they'll still do enough damage. And I guess it's working out because it's a one of the cat people. I think it's named Shiba, the kaj k Sheiba in this world. So he's doing he's doing enough damage and stuff. He's working out fine. But I got some sweet new moves, man, I got this one where you like jump in and you like stab them into the ground and then you can keep stabbing them. But I think it only works for monsters I don't know yet, or or if they're only on the ground, if you knock them down, then you can like get on top of them and keep Yeah it's sweet and it does a lot of damage. But yeah, I've been kind of working through the story, I guess because there's this captain that you speak to who asks you to do all these things so you can verify who you really are with like the queen who doubts you're always brunt or what of his name, Brandt. So remember before you finish his quest lines, do not go to the desert yet, go do other romance in quests. Right, there's a whole romancing quest with the whore from the brothel. There's a lot of run into her yet I don't know, but the she was she like interrupts you coming from the castle with her with like a fan in the oh no, the courtyard. Okay, I don't think i've seen her. She's hot. Well, there's a lot of side quests that I have, so and I'm kind of like, you know, do I do these if the fucking game just goes on without me, does the main the main quest surely can't go on without me, so maybe I should do the side quest before the main quest goes on with the cut the Kingdom Come, it does not entirely, but like there are events that you can miss in Kingdom Come in the main story if you don't like follow it anyway. So yeah, I've been playing that and it's been awesome. It's just been so cool. It's like such a breath of fresh air from I don't know, Street Fighter or the Monster Hunter game. So I'm really enjoying it. And I got a sweet new cape and I'm gonna go buy I have a ton of gold. I'm gonna go buy some new armor and just kind of keep upgrading a bit. When you hire people, okay, check their quests and then check the quest rewards, because there's the thing that going on where people will post, well they'll put their pawns out there with a quest like defeat Ogre and then they'll pay you ten thousand gold. Okay, so once you do that, and like you do it as well, so post your pawn for a quest for ten thousand gold, and then everyone's like circling all these things. So if you put ten thousand gold into the rift on your pawn, you can hire two other pawns that have ten thousand dollars rewards, so you kind of get that money back plus ten thousand. Yeah, but that's if you enable network features so that you can use other players pawns. Though you don't have that. I don't know if I turn I have to check, okay, but that's the fastest way to get more gold is higher ponds, higher two pawns with ten thousand gold rewards, and then you kind of like get more gold by doing that. Interesting. Cool. Yeah, I think that's it. That's kind of it. I'm just exploring the world and finding new camp sites because honestly, I fucking hate running back to campsites and shit. So I've just been exploring and trying to find the closest ones and stuff like that. I am relieved, I gotta say, I am relieved that when you do use camp you don't use up one of your camping kits. I thought maybe it was like a pre use thing. I was going to be so fucking passed. You can get those those who can break if you get like jumped. Like if you yeah, ambush in the night in the camp and then you get ambushed, your camp gear can be broken or right destroyed. Yeah, I think I have I think I have another one on somebody else, but they weigh a lot. And again the inventory management. Oh, I'm so tied heard of inventory management. I'm so fucking sick of it. You have you are over recovered, you are heavy, you cannot run anymore. You have to go through your fucking inventory for half an hour and just like sort all his ship and delete it or use it or whatever. I can't stand anymore. Man, that's realistic. Man's you can hire a pon. You can hire a pon that specialized in inventory management. So upon once you hire them, so they thought they'll organize everyone's inventory to keep everyone on like average or light. Wow, I'm specialized in an inventory management master and be happy. I would be happy to help you with this. So yeah, that's been awesome people talk about. Man. I was laughing so hard because it's so good there. I love the voice acting in the game. It's like I don't know if it's I can't tell if it's good and it's not bad, or if it's just because it's so like mediocre. But the script, it's just people reading like this old English script. I don't know, it's really funny. I love it. But yeah, there's so there's dragons, dogma. I also loaded up a little Assassin's Creed val Halle because I don't know. I was just on comms with the guys last night and I felt well to see what it looks like on the O lead and I was just playing that for a little bit and exploring and doing a quest. I think a main quest pretty sure, but I can't tell in that game because there's no like main quest side quest thing. I don't think in the in the menu. God, it looks good. I had it on performance mode. It looks beautiful. Yeah, yeah, I had any performance moe. I was like, okay, I like the sixty, but I was like, let me just check quality again, and I was like, yeah, I'm not touching this. I'm not changing it. It's just not worth it. I look around in Performance mode and I see, like in at dusk when the night is kind of the sun is just setting and it's got that really pasty, kind of gross look, and I'm looking around and all the grass is like really vibrant green at night, and it's like, nah, it's like, turn on quality mode. No, no, on performance mode. Turned on quality mode, and it was like, oh, okay, there are the shadows, there's the the shadows are just leaving it. There's no point. I'll take the thirty for graphics any fucking day. And it looks so good. The game is beautiful. I still love Valhalla over so many other Assassin's Creed games. It's a close second behind Black Flag because I've just really enjoyed the environment. The story I can't comment on because it feels like years ago when I was like linking territories with and it'll be years until you be with Vikings in the in the country. Like, I have no idea what happened to that storyline. They got all they got me all distracted, the Asgard thing, and then I got So that kind of sucks and I want to know what the fuck I'm doing now in the story. But man, it was great. So I really enjoyed that too, the fighting and all the special abilities and shit like that. I got way laid by bandits on the road. It's just classic. It's classic. Yeah, So that's about it. Just those few all right, cool, cool. I just wanted to announce that Henry Too is coming out this year. But by Henry Too, I mean Kingdom Come Deliverance Too. Maybe I was watching Deliverance American word the British, which is the British work, like watching that trailer, watching that trailer, Oh my boy, Henry Holy ship. I didn't watch it yet. He looks like he's grown up a bit. And it looks like it looks like they've captured They've kept that kind of style and feel like that you get and Kingdom come to, you know, but a little bit more polished in the graphics. Things a little bit up. I guess that's what. It doesn't look like they changed much. Yeah, I was like, the graphics looks like they've proved a little bit, but I'm still noticing a lot of the character models kind of just look like the same engine. And I guess because it's gonna be right, I don't know, it has been a while. When did it first one? Did the first twenty eighteen? I think twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen. Oh yeah, it's got to be a new engine. There's no way they're using that one. But like you could tell the amount, like the details. There's gonna be destructural, destructible buildings. Yeah, like just like the detail. They've pride themselves in the detail of the weapons, and well that's why I loved the first game. Yes, all that kind of stuff. Oh man, it looks fuck. The first game was fucking funny. Man, I gotta finish the version. I'm going to finish the first game before this comes out. I'm gonna mod the shit out of it. It's gonna be a great time. I'll maybe even stream it because it's so funny. It's fucking sick. I love it. Yeah. Fuck, yeah, it looks cool. Uh. They got some new weapons crossbows which is kind of cross bows which underbus is easier. Yeah, there's like firearms now because it's like where I think we're in the sixteenth century, probably now fifteen hundreds, so a little bit of that. I don't really know based on the trailer what the story is. I think it kind of spoils the first game really because I don't really remember his buddy's still there. He doesn't. I guess he's still in the story. He's still there and he still keeps fighting him. So I'm assuming you don't have the sixteen hundreds. If Henry's still in it, No, fifteenth Henry in it. It's an exteenth century. I thought it was. The other one was in like medieval times. Yeah, it was fourteen eight or some shit. Oh yeah, it was early fourteen hundreds. I thought it was one hundred years old. Like what you find the Secret of Youth the first game? Yeah, I was just still how it ends you brew a Secret of Youth potion in one of those huts. Oh yeah, Oh the potion making of that was so fucking good. Yeah. I am looking forward to playing it for sure. Yeah, for sure. But I have I have loaded up Kingdom Come in the past recently, and I'm like, like, graphics, it's just not there's no it looks like seven twenty p there's no fucking high reds whatever. Nothing. They didn't do anything for there's just no. I don't buy that on They didn't waste their time with it. What platform do I have? I have it on Xbox and I have it on PC. It looks like five It drops down to five dollars on PC. Like it on the Steam. What did I buy on Steam? Yeah, it's on Steam. You should should get it and then modit. Did I have it on Xbox? I think I had it on Xbox, Like you can make that game look unbelievable, like photo realistic, crazy mods. There's no way I own this on on Steam. I don't think so. I have it on Steam and I bought the there was a package because it has one DLC. Right, No, there's like three or something or four. Oh really, there's like a house building one where you become like you become like a mad village. There's another one where you're doing the adventures of like Hans Capon, like that fucking prince charming guy that you meet, the the lady schmoozer that you go and fuck around with him and do like quests with him. And there's maybe one more and I haven't played them. I kind of wish I did, but I don't want to now because it's not going to look great. It looked amazing on my little monitor twenty four inch or whatever the hell it is. It's eight bucks right now on Steam for the whole paint deal like the Royal edition, and the Royal Edition is eleven dollars. It's so worth it, Like, yeah, that's instantly pays for it. Itself anyway, So yeah, I am looking. I was almost done too. I don't know. I don't know how different it's going to be. The combat looked very similar, but I guess they're not going to stray away from that because that was their entire that was one of their biggest like selling points. They said, they said they're going to make it a little bit more accessible, and I thank God for that. Thank hekay, because they said they said a lot. What a lot of people said about the first one was the fighting could have been a little bit more accessible to people who don't want to spend all that time trying to learn. Because I did, I did find it was a bit obtuse. Yeah, try trying to get that like blocking down the way you have to do the fighting. I to simplify that just a little bit, it would be amazing, I'd say, Now I would be I don't know if I'd want to work that hard now. But back then, I was like up for the challenge. I was up for the refreshing thing. I was tired of the Skyrim hack and slash. I was tired of that crap. But now, yeah, maybe, okay, I'll take that. It's more like if you think about it, it's more like chivalry too, like kind of what you're you can fake. You can fake one way and then go and swing up top and then they can block you. Like it gets pretty crazy too great, Gonna be gonna be good. I will. I will stream this one once I finished Vegas New Vegas. I'll jump into Deliverance and we'll do that one. Okay for everyone who's still here and listening, correct anything else. That's it all right. Before we head on to our main topic today, a little word from our VR sponsors.

So today, guys, I'm gonna read I'm gonna read the story and lore part just to kind of introduce this. I don't know how people are gonna like this one. No, they're gonna hate it, and it's gonna be great. Well, the link versus the people. People didn't like that either. We've had a few people say they don't agree, but you know, it wasn't up this AAI have spoken. So I'm gonna read this little ore part and then we're going to go into like a little quick discussion on what we think or who we think is gonna win, okay, and if they do win, how they are going to kind of how the AI, how we believe the AI is gonna give them that victory. Okay. Link. After his victory over Master Chief looked up at the mushroom Kingdom sky with a sense of triumph. His heroic heart knew he had been summoned for a reason, and soon that reason would become clear. Meanwhile, in Bowser's castle, the villain, with his evil schemes sneered at the princess. His thoughts were set on making decisions that could tip the tournament in his favor. With all the powerful heroes emerging victorious, Bowser felt a surge of fear. He knew he had to act to stop these heroes advances if he was to take Princess Peach to the altar and make her his queen. A nervous, childlike voice broke Bowser's thoughts. Sir, the next two combatants have confronted each other. You might want to prepare for this one said the kooper Troopa to his king. Bowser turned from the dark corner he was standing in. I'm picturing the guy with his tongue cut out in robin Hood princesses. Bowser turned from his dark corner he was standing in and looked up at his many high definition o LED four K screens. This AI knows us too well, I guess there he saw his arch rival Mario standing in the next area of the of the tournament. Bowser and Peach both held their breath, feeling a not in their throats, Peach smiling with stars in her eyes, but when Mario's opponent was revealed on the screen, Peach fell to the ground, her head in her hands, unable to watch the Koopa in the cloud, with the camera focused on Bowser zooming in on his face as he cracked a smile and said, good luck Mario. Peach is as good as mine. Seriously, good luck Mario. So weird noise they're supposed to be, like Bowser laughing and Maria sixty four that's just just like ra. So you guys know who he's fighting. I do, we know, I do. I don't think the listeners know. Cepharoth from Final Fantasy seven Mario versus Going Down Mario Battle Down, a classic well matched, evenly matched battle. Although Mario has plot armor, he does, but I should know about his plot arm because I never put in that he loves Peach. I never put in these lore bits with the actual fights, so as the AI, when the AI creates the fights, it's just Mario versus Sephroth. It's not we should give Mario. We have to give Mario plot armor in the in the stipulation, it's funny. It'd be funny because he loves Peach so much, flips over breaks into that it comes up with because of his plot armor. I don't know what because this is a new AI model we're using. Well it's chat GPT for but it's like a free one, so I don't know what the hell's going to come up with. I did add some new stuff to the prompts based on some feedback I found in the previous fights. The environments were a little bit too detailed and they kind of take away from the fight, Like how much words the AI uses to describe the fight. A lot of it, like half of it was used to describe the environment, and I kind of wanted them to use the environment to their I say, you know how you say advantage advantage. Maybe it'll corporate the environment a little bit more, kind of like what Link did with with master Chief. But we'll have to we'll have to see. I also told it to leave out some words that it keeps using and phrases that it keeps using, so like palpable, I'm tired of hearing that fucking word A dance of heroes or whatever. I'm tired of hearing that dance of death A dance, yeah, dancing and time yea. So I told them to get rid of that ship. It sounds like a Disney lyric tell us all this time? Yeah exactly. So what do you guys think is going to happen here? I assume will kill Mario with one blow. I mean, I don't think so. That's not what the AI does. Though, if he's got a last it, don't worry. This one's gonna be good. This one we had to get juiced Mario. He should be dead within the first ten words. So, like, why why they're drawing it. I'm very curious to see how this is gonna go. I, like I said, I think I will exit. I will make my exit provided Mario wins. I think Mario wins. I think I think because the AI just knows Mario Moore. I think I'm going on on like a technical bias. Mario gonna win? How could he possibly win? Superstar? All he has to do is get a superstar, pop it out Superstar and just touchp Off and he's dead. That's all he has to do. He's got to touch him. Yeah, he would never touch him. He would never ever, like, he would literally never come close around, just like disappears thirty seconds. He got thirty seconds. He disappears in a cloud of black smoke, and Mario's like huh, and the star wars off and then he cuts his hand and then yeah, and you just hear like with like a cloud of red dust at Mario's slides off. Okay, so you guys are saying wins. Here is what you guys, he should But you're you're you're miss They are in the mushroom Kingdom. It's where Mario is. Okay, Mario has like video game industry plot armor, like he is like the quintessential video game character. Okay, think of you instantly think you instantly think Mario. You think so like, I don't know. I think he takes it in some stupid way that the Ai will just give it to him because he's Mario. Like, you can't beat Mario, That's what I think. Who has he won again? So far? Mario, Pikachu and just pikachuh. So this is a second fight. God, I'm nervous, all right, Daniel. In the heartland of the Mushroom Kingdom, where the lush, verdant fields blend seamlessly with the Saruu sky, an oasis of tranquility, seemingly untouched by conflict, destiny was about to inscribe a new chapter. Here, beneath the towering toads, tools, and amidst the fluttering flora, Mario and Cepharoth would cross paths, igniting a clash of worlds. Mario Titan. Mario, having recently triumphed over Pikachu in a display of agility and tactical fireball use, wandered this part of the kingdom in search of new challenges. Cephth, on the other hand, Victor, in his grueling battle against Gerald of Rivia oh Yes, was drawn to the Mushroom Kingdom by whispers of a warrior whose heart burned with the courage of the stars. Oh God, here we go. Neither had prior knowledge of the other or the powers they wielded, but fate deemed necessity the mother of confrontation. As Mario explored, he stumbled upon a clearing where stood the long, shimmering blade of Massimoune, reflecting the sunlight in an almost hypnotic dance. Fucking right. Their meeting was accidental, but the tensionate bred was palpable. Who's ansa guy? Who is a guy? Plumber? I told it not to use these words, but okay. Mario, ever, the defender of peace, saw in Cepharoth's ominous aura a threat to the Kingdom's safety. Of course, Cephth, driven by a desire to confront strong adversaries, sensed a worthy opponent in Mario's determined gaze. You sure about that? You sure about that? Hey? The environment itself, the environment itself seemed to hold its breath, the towering mushrooms casting long shadows, creating a natural arena. It was here, under the watchful eyes of the Kingdom's flora and fauna, that their battle commenced, with a burst of speed granted by his superhuman agility, Sepharath launched himself at Mario, his masimoney, slicing through the air with deadly precision. Mario, relying on his instincts and remarkable acrobatics, dodged the initial strike, retaliating with a barrage of fireballs. He doesn't see him, like Mario. Why does he have fireballs? He didn't grab a power up or anything. The magic and might of their opening salvo scorched the earth and sky. As the battle escalated, Mario's versatility came to the forefront. Grabbing a nearby superstar, he charged, cloaked and invisibility, sorry invincibility, forcing Sephara to rely on his teleportation abilities to avate the relentless assault. Okay, so we called some stuff here. The clash was a spectacle of light and energy, each attack more fierce and desperate than the last. Yet for all hysincton power ups, Mario found himself increasingly challenged by Sepharroth's swordsmanship and magic, conjuring a storm of dark energy, unleashed it upon Mario, who narrowly escaped using his acrobatic skills. The battlefield, once a peaceful clearing, now bore the scars of their confrontation. Recognizing the need for a change in tactics, Mario summoned Yoshi his trust is companioned, and descended into the sky. From this new vantage, he launched a series of aerial attacks while sephiroth undeterred countered with devastatingly precise energy blasts. The turning point came when Mario, I feel like this story is very Mario charged. The turning point came when Mario, exhausted and nearly out of power, ups made a daring move I hate this so much, evaded into an over confident strike, then, using the last of his superstar power, launched a direct assault. Surprised by the sudden ferocity, attempted to teleport away, but Mario's timing was impeccable. As they collided, a shockwave of energy erupted, sending both combatants crashing to the ground. Oh As the dust settled, it was clear that there would only be one standing. The silence of the aftermath was broken by the soft groan of the fallen warrior. Though powerful and nearly invincible, had underestimated the heart and resilience of his opponent. He lay defeated his consciousness slipping away while Mario battered, but unbowas stood victorious. This is such bullshit. The mushroom Kingdom had once again been defended by its greatest champion. Mario's victory was not just mario victory is not just a testament to his strength and diversity, but to the indomitable spirit that had seen him through countless battles. As he looked around at the transformed clearing, he knew this victory was but a moment in the endless cycle of challenges he faced. Yet for now, peace would return to the Kingdom until destiny called upon its hero once more. I can't believe that should wow, well this this is what this is. Jonathan's like cursor moving up and down the notes as he was reading. I was like, is he going to change the story? Just change the text? I'm like, except for Rock wins period. I liked it. I liked how they both knocked each other out, and I was kind of I was like, oh, does Seph Fross just stand up here? I was hoping for a draw kind of thing. At least it was way too merry. Yeah, no, it was like Mary, that's the thing though. If I put if I put seph verse Mario, do you think it would come out different, like we we chatted about before, if you put a name first, a name second, you know what I would like to see? Because this this is ridiculous. Don't put versus, say make it a word it differently, say I want and yeah. Now, then they'll just write in the sunset together. One fighter's name is this? One fighter's name is this? They battle? I don't know. This is just ridiculous. I think it also knows integrity. The integrity has been compromised of this. I think it also knows that Mario is a good guy, right is a bad guy, And then the AI is always coded to be more I don't know, good towards you do you think that might be the problem. But then you know, why did Pikachu lose? Kind of thing? So pikachu' is a fucking rat. But why did Shokan win because they were both evil? Right con won over Diablo? Yeah, I mean, the plot armor is real and the AI seems to know it. We didn't even have to put that in there, Like this is a severe case of plot armor, very thick invincible plate armor plate plot plot plate. We only have good guys. Now, right, so Mario should lose first first one. Yes. So so now now that he's Verse, he's going to be versus the winner of Credos and Link. So the next fight's Kratos versus Link. I can see him winning against Link, like with the AI thing, but like once it comes to Crados and Mario, there's no there's no way. Because that's what I'm saying, there's there's too much history in Mario on the Internet. I think that the a I just knows more about Mario and loves Mario just like everyone was Mario because he's Mario. Well, no, I think it may It might not be so much that there's so much history. It's just that it knows that they're in the Mushroom Kingdom, that Prince Princess Peach is the victim and Mario has to save her kind of thing. Like I feel like it's just doing that on its own. You know what we should have done. Sep Roth could have teleported Mario outside the Mario the Mushroom Kingdom and he would have just became a plumber in New York City. Yeah, you know, but he couldn't touch him because of the superstar that's true. If he got if he got to his Superstar before could touch him, it didn't even tell us that he picked it up or that. Yeah, it's like he's pulling him out of his pockets. But Mario can do that. You can't have a Superstar in your pocket and Fireflower in your pocket because you can keep them in your ventory on the world inventory, in your inventory on the world map. So he could have just popped them out. Just fucking keep popping on superstars. I mean, in all honestly, in a real fight, if there was no but like, you can't take that away from Mario, right, that's his that's his abilities, his abilities are to have this exactly whatever it makes sense, I guess. Well, I mean I'm not happy. I'm not a happy. This is what it is. This is the AI has spoken and this is uh, that's what happened, and like it or not, I do not like it. If I have an overwhelming negative response to this story, I will redo. If anybody wants to comment, do the comments, Okay, comment us on Twitter, YouTube comments. I'll take those comments and I will reprompt with comments. If you guys come up with fair prompts for me to add to this to redo it, I'll redo it. We don't know. We're not redoing it. I'll redo it, but read it. It's accurate, and if Mario comes out on top again, If Mario comes on top again, then everyone can shut up. This is just for entertainment purposes. Who cares who wins? Like this is not real. It's not like that guy who does those Goku versus Superman videos Like this is not like that. This is just fake, stupid ship that we're just for entertainment. All right, This isn't a real calculation of who would win versus Mario and Sephrop. Obviously Mario would die very fast, but it's not That's what the power. That's what we're trying to bring forward of the power of Ai is to finally, like have these fights and who would come out on top based on their strengths and weaknesses and their lower and power. Well, I don't think it's been working out too well. Well, like if you think about it, like, well, this fight, I guess if you think about its gets stopped by loud right, Crowd's no god, He's just some dude with a sword that has some magic. Right, Well, he has a group of friends with him. You know, it's a team of powerful people. Yeah, well it's still Sephroth. Mario has a team of superstars and Yoshi fireballs. Yoshi was cool. Add I like that. That was pretty cool. I thought he was gonna punch Yoshi and then Yoshi just eats Sefroth. I would have been ships an egg and he's like the sword stupid. All right, that's it, Jonathan, take us out of here. All right, Well that is it for this week's episode. What can we say? If you want to comment, just comment?
