Pac-Man 99

hello everyone should be ready to begin in a moment hello all right hello everyone you just pop out this chat here do that like so yeah you must have all known this was coming because i was talking about pac-man just recently thank you ryan thank you uh yeah so i was giving pac-man some praise just recently right so my excuse already is that i have no sound i still haven't sorted out my sound problem i think i will do that now because i probably want to stream this again and i've been streaming a lot more lately so i'll get my setup sorted out but i have no sound so you know bear that in mind as we we go forward we know i was praising pac-man on a recent stream and uh i'm not that good at it i'm not that good at pac-man i don't want to disillusion anybody here you know but uh i never said i was good at it you know um so yeah i gotta pack one last night but uh only one out of like 10 games or something like that so oh that doesn't count for the speed up okay that's good to know so i think um i think not to give away my strategy give away all my secrets but i think it's worth clearing the board twice at the start when it's easy because uh if you do a board clear you get a speed up and that turns out to be handy in later stages but you know i find it hard to control when the speed gets too high so i'm probably only going to do it twice and then i'll just worry about chomping ghosts i'm gonna select the train option alien soldier 99 yeah i wish that sounds like fun yeah i've been working out some of the strategy slowly um so i think as well it's it's worth trying to make the the pellets count because your level is your level seems to be independent of everybody else so the effectiveness of your pellets is only going to decrease as the game goes on you know um so it's worth trying to try to make them count oh it's bad oh already yeah i not a trailer for world of demons i don't think it looks amazing i can move this over a little bit closer i think i don't need to see the side of the screen i don't think it looks amazing or anything although i like the style of it i like the style quite a lot actually visually but uh yeah it's nice that they were able to salvage it everybody thought it was dead so it's good for them that they were able to bring it back like that you know [Music] oh yeah i meant to set my thing to speed i worked i think it's worth putting it on speed in the beginning to get those board clears as quickly as possible before people start ramping up i'm gonna try and chomp some ghosts early as well oh i shouldn't have done that okay now that was a huge mistake that was a huge huge mistake so now that the pellet if i understand the game correctly it's it's just like the the base game you know the the pellet is less effective now it's not something that happens over time for everybody it's just depending on when you how often you change board the round thing the round indicator on the right there two i think those arrow indicators mean that the ghosts can take those pads at that point because they can't they can't normally i don't know where they all are but i know that there's some some parts of the map that the ghosts can't actually go through which is how you can exploit it to uh right i don't want any more speed than that because i find it too hard to control at that point okay oh yeah so i don't need i don't need to clear dots just gotta keep that in mind now i wish i knew how to send the red jammer pac-man because they're way stronger than the the other ones they're just by the way if you haven't played the game the red ones are just an instant kill and they will oh okay i didn't get enough dots yeah so okay i didn't get enough dots i forgot i sort of started ignoring the dots but you can't ignore them completely because the next fruit spawns in depending on how many dots you eat so you have to eat about half of them or something like that or maybe it's some absolute number that you have to bring it below you know why was that a mistake i can't remember i can't remember what i said was mistake oh yeah i i had to fruit too soon at the start of that round uh which every time you eat the fruit your pellet gets less effective it has a shorter timer on it although it seems like after a while when it gets low enough it seems like it will uh regenerate as you eat ghosts so that you can eat a train of them you know so it's not all bad news there's definitely a period where it's short and it doesn't regenerate though which is the worst probably the most one of the most dangerous parts of the game okay so that that pellet doesn't count i should get speed up here i did okay i'm just trying to work out the rules there's there's absolutely no information explaining the game which you know i like figuring things out for myself but i thought there would be like a little how to play thing explaining some of the new elements or something um there's not and it it's fine except that you can't spectate in this one for whatever reason if you if i could spectate i'd be able to work out what everything does much quicker i still have no idea how to send red jammers like i'm wondering does this the the combo that you get send red jammers what is it what is it that causes them i don't know yet is it the stronger option on the left i don't know so yeah i'm just basically i'm just trying to circle around a little bit to collect some dots to make sure i get the next screw spawning in before i'll need it i want it to come i want it to appear before i'm gonna get it so i can just make the choice whenever i think it's time to refresh the pills and i'm trying to keep the thing active as well like there that's no good i'm gonna have to go down here i have to imagine there's some benefit to getting that number very high you know good it's a a really bad temptation but when you first get the the red jammers it's very tempting to just run into them when you pick up a pill you know it's got greedy bomberman 99 would be great if you if it was everybody playing on one board you know and the bombs could only reach maybe a screen's worth of length or something like that that's probably a restriction you'd have to put on it but yeah that's that'd be cool bomberman 99 on one board you'd probably have a big advantage if you're around the edges but [Music] hey it's for anyone who doesn't know that sparks are a pre-turning mechanic so if you turn if you're holding the turn button before you make a turn pac-man actually takes the turn a little bit faster and that helps you gain distance against the ghost so it's worth uh it's worth picking your turns ahead of time i'm meant to be clearing the board i'm re i'm really bad at remembering things okay thankfully that didn't come back to bite me there but i could've roof i didn't need the dots there i don't think there's any advantage if you're not looking to spawn the fruit and you don't need to get rid of any jammers or whatever there's really no advantage to oh wait what what they say that about the jammers but that doesn't make any difference you're not looking to get the speed up and you don't want to spawn a fruit then there's really no point in eating the dots um that's a really bad position for him to be in [Music] okay yeah yeah okay thanks apparently some people can't see the stream or something i don't know what i'm supposed to do about that i mean i can stop and restart it but i don't really want to bother it was unavailable for a few minutes well you got in eventually i'm gonna leave it for now i i mean there's no guarantee that stopping the stream and bringing it back up is gonna it's fine now okay okay because i don't know if restarting is going to fix it and it would it would split the vod up be annoying the working now yeah yeah okay well whatever it's fine thanks that's technology for you don't get me started i don't have a very big combo so i don't need to worry too much about maintaining this i'm not on speed that's unfortunate i think this speed and then swapping to train strategy is decent but i don't know for sure that's fast enough for me i did i did three board clears one game last night and it just it was uncontrollably fast for me like i said i've never been that good at pac-man so i'm relishing the opportunity to get better though i'm very happy that this is the next game that they picked for the 99 thing i'm kind of curious if they're going to keep doing them now though it seems like it's just a thing that they do maybe it's just uh miyamoto's pac-man fondness responsible for this one this is why you need to keep to stop turning away from me you need to keep this thing trimmed down because there's a limit on the number of ghosts you can have in it if you have the max number then it stops stops uh spawning anymore even if you grab the little outlined ones i think the only real sound cue that i'm missing here is there is a a pretty definitive cue that happens when one of the red jammers spawns which would be useful to have oh for sake like that yeah yeah i appreciate the quick matchmaking as well it's a big part of why i like these games i it's one of my biggest gripes with multiplayer games it's just the absurd matchmaking times that you get sometimes you know you spend as long or even longer waiting to get into a game as you do playing it it's just a really bad a really bad ratio you know and there's a lot of games that are like that i just want to play something i really i really should prioritize the the board clears over eating them at the start all right one more board clear then we swap the train that's the strategy i do wish i had sound i didn't think i'd miss it this much i tried uh i tried plugging my headphones into the switch does anyone remember if i was able to do this before oh i think i remember what i did before as i moved the switch to my desk and i played on my monitor instead maybe i should have done that i up didn't i forgot to clear the board i like getting the big combos on it there we go okay over the train so there it i think that'll always happen at round four that those arrows will appear that's bad that the lowest of right now i ranked even lower earlier didn't i i can't turn my mic up anymore this is it yeah i'm playing with the uh the the joy cons instead my my pro control the battery seems to be dead in my pro controller so that's one reason but i think i might have picked these anyway just for the d-pad it's a bit better okay we can't do any worse than that 98 let's get that one out of the way no the drift somebody says robo guy says have you managed to avoid the drift no the drift has come for me uh i put some i put some uh wd-40 i think i think you have to use like an electrical variant of it or something anyway i gotta i got a can of it and i sprayed some of that in there and it seems to work but it doesn't solve the problem i don't know the the drifting apparently the ps5 controllers have it as well i don't have a ps5 so i don't know but uh it's really up because like i said recently i've been going on a ps2 binge you know and i'm using an old ps2 controller that's that must be nearing 20 years old now it's not the one that i had at launch but it's old you know and yeah maybe it hasn't seen that many hours of use over those years you know but it's it's been through a bunch of games and uh it's holding up perfectly fine you know there's nothing there's nothing wrong with it so what the why is it getting so much worse why is it so much worse these days and it is worse the joy cons are are bad they're just bad i i don't like playing in i mean it kind of it kind of um dampens the appeal of the switch because i don't like playing games portably that would benefit from using the joy cons you know so there's a whole bunch of games that i'm just not going to play in portable mode because i don't trust the joy-cons to hold up i always forget to use the little bridge between the two sides i gotta get a pillow so i think the main reason i've been dying on stream is the jammer pac-man been dog piling me which they seemed a lot more harmless when i was playing before maybe i think the yeah i think the difference between now and then when i was playing last night is i didn't really understand that there's a benefit to not picking up the pills so i was picking them up really quickly and that was helping me deal with the jammer pacman but then now now they're more div but it was ultimately hurting me as well because you know the game was becoming faster quicker so now i just need to i just need to balance it out a bit more and get used to dealing with the jammer pacman i think that's it it's like i said i've said this before on stream sometimes if you want to get better at something you gotta go through the value of punishment you know what i mean the the value of punishment holds the the keys to success because it will eventually get to the point where other people work this out and uh and they they all have the same strategies you know i really really need to pick up that fruit okay that's good that was very close oh we got a lot of eliminations this game need the fruit i need the fruit it's there is it it is the picking up the fruit gets rid of the red jammers which is crucially important oh oh man he spawned in a really bad place come on come on that was a really bad spawn there that's unfortunate your devil may cry commentary finally got me do my own s-rank run and gave me a greater appreciation for a game i already loved i'm glad to hear it i got a greater appreciation for it uh by doing the video as well so the red jammers kill you straight up and yeah the power pill doesn't doesn't get rid of them yeah yeah i got pack one once i think it was just once what do you think of xbox game pass well i don't have it but um it seems to be the way things are going i don't know i i uh i understand the convenience well there's there's a few problems i think i suppose it's not really it's different for games than it is for streaming because you know with streaming they i suppose it's not really that good i'm just thinking in terms of preservation you know and preservation means uh another word beginning with p very often you know and uh yeah i suppose it's possible it's gonna be possible either way because you're gonna have to download the game and people will crack them and they'll they'll still be around so that's not going to be a problem because you know what happens is it's just what one frustration i have with films right you don't really get this frustration with games yet and hopefully it won't be so bad but you know you can kind of see it happening with games where it's splintering right it used to be that everything was on steam and now microsoft is trying to come in with game pass and maybe they won't release some of their stuff on steam as a result and you know there's the epic store and stuff and what pisses me off about films is that i'll i'll think about a film that i want to watch you know some some old film let's say that i've never seen and i go yeah i want to finally get around to watching that one and i want to watch it and i'm totally willing to pay for it i'm totally willing to hand my money over but it's just there's no service that offers it or if it is it's just like the only thing i would watch on that service or something like that you know that's that's shitty that's really really bad um so that's a problem uh and i think i think the other problem which is a bigger problem for me is that i don't believe so far that streaming services have produced better they haven't produced better tv or films than what we have before i feel like tv and films have been getting worse or at least i'm just generally not as interested in them you know um like i'm a big fan of jorgo salantimos and he's still making films and that's good you know but i don't care to watch any of the marvel stuff i'm not interested in watching a cinematic universe of any kind really i just want to watch a good film you know and uh or a good tv show um that has like nice nice themes and nice characterization going on you know and i just i'm not convinced that their streaming services have actually made that better i really don't think they have we don't we don't have better stuff than we used to have you know so what's the what's the problem with that i don't know is because everything is metrics driven nowadays right they've got so instead of some guy as much as as much as it's bad right some guy's sitting in a boardroom and going oh i like the sound of this show and i think we should make it because i think it would be good right and you can argue that there's kind of there's kind of an elitism to that you know that they get to decide what we're watching and yeah that's that's bad but i don't know if the alternative of uh let's just look at what keeps people's eyes glued to the screen the longest uh is doing us any better you know so i would hate to see the same thing happen to games and i think that uh if it's gonna happen it would be a subscription service like that i should have picked up the pill should have picked up the pill gotta get used to the jammer uh i wasn't sure if he was gonna kill me that's one thing that i really don't like about the game so far i feel like um i feel like the jammers when they stop they maybe shouldn't stop instantly they should be stopping on like a tile based system where they're very clearly in one tile or another you know what i mean i think that would make more sense i don't know you'd have to test it out and stuff um i think i had one where i was down the bottom you know that long stretch down the bottom and there was a jammer and he was just like kind of peeking into the lane and i was so i was so hesitant to run past them that i died i backtracked and i got snagged by a ghost i just think it might be better if they kind of not snapped but if they just at least move to their next tile and then stopped you know [Music] when was last yeah somebody says i i think games have been at that point for ages now when was last time we got a genuinely innovative double a or aaa game yeah uh well i i don't know if i i don't think i kind of got this point across enough when i made the review for a breath of the wild uh i think the breath of the wild is innovative might be over selling it i think it builds on what they had laid down before in some in some less than in some less obvious ways you know like how i pointed out that the chemistry system kind of it wasn't there in the sense that it wasn't systematized in the previous games but you can kind of see that they were they were thinking about that stuff back in the day and how do we evoke that feeling in people even if they hadn't quite um if they hadn't quite figured it out um but i do think uh maybe something that i maybe should have trumpeted more when i made the review is that that okay it's maybe not innovative but i do think that breath of the wild is probably one of the risky it's one of the i don't know about riskiest even necessarily it's one of the ballsiest aaa games in a long time and i can understand if you didn't like it you might think i'm talking out my ass because you might think it's overrated because everybody loves it but i think if you imagine the amount of money that went into that game i mean it had so many employees on it right there was something like like a hundred nintendo employees and then they got another 100 um monolith soft employees to come in and help them finish off the map and stuff there were so many people involved in that and it's such a big name franchise and it was such a big game to help push the switch and the wii u and all that right and for them to i think on the development team you know among the higher-ups on the development team somebody clearly went like the reason i talked about intrinsic motivation when i was making that video is i really believe that somebody on the development team actually used the word intrinsic or thought about the game in that way even if they don't have that that word over there they were thinking that you know i'm tired of seeing games push players through things with these uh check boxes you know like chore lists of chores that you have to do and all that kind of stuff and uh i'd like to make an open world game that just rewards and allows people to enjoy intrinsically moment to moment and so that we don't have to cram it with so much you know stupid list making and all that kind of stuff i think that that somebody on the development team thought that whether it was just only the director or some higher up gameplay guy or something i don't know but i do think that was ballsy because i think the vast majority of big budget games are very extrinsically driven right they give you a big list of to do um you get you know achievements or you unlock skins or whatever number of hours um and i think for them to not do that on such a big budget an important game is probably the biggest uh weird move that's been done in a a triple-a game even probably even bigger than the last of us too uh although maybe i just feel that way because i like the breath of the wild more you know i think that the last of us too was was risky as well i just don't oh that's i just didn't enjoy that risk as much now that's that's uh that's pretty bad i don't know about that i don't know how i feel about that one i i don't know i don't know i think that that strength like i always have such a hard time conveying my thoughts to people i know most it must sound like sometimes when i'm on the stream you know i think i do a much better job of being convincing when i get time to sit down and make a video but i don't know when i think about it now like i do enjoy that that's stranding focused on traversal and that's good right but i do also actually think that breath of the wild was riskier and was stranger and stuff i just got to speed up for free there that's cool uh because the the um because that stranding is still ultimately supported by when you deliver this package you get an exoskeleton that makes delivering the next package easier right that's that's the kind of motivation that drives the vast majority of games that are already out there now so in that sense breath of the wild is much more different than death training even though i do appreciate what that's trending brought in terms of making traversal uh more challenging and more intricate and interesting in that way and i think breath of the wild actually of all games could have benefit from that a little bit more you know like even just including sculptures or whatever to keep that to keep the the climbing more interesting but no i think it's a bigger risk again you have to put yourself in the shoes of someone who uh there there's a hundred million dollars well i'd say breath of the wild is probably cheaper than something like the last of us or or the new god of war or whatever right um because nintendo nintendo tries to do things on the cheap right so it's it's maybe considerably more cheap than those games but there's a huge amount of money on the line there's the reputation of a company that you probably knew when you were in school right you probably knew that you wanted to work for nintendo since you were a five-year-old kid or something right um and there's and there's also hundreds of jobs on the line right all your friends if the game sells poorly all your friends are gonna be sacked right uh well maybe not zach but you know what i'm saying right there's there's so much writing on it and it really does in the case of games like that it really does compel people to say to put a number of carrots on the stick and say chase the carrots you know and that stranding does that for breath of the wild it does in some places you know but to a much lesser extent giving the player all of the runes at the start and stuff like that i don't know i i don't think i got some of that stuff across in my my review or at least i don't think i got the full extent of how how i feel about it across you know what i mean and again you know me i'm not saying it's a flawless game or anything oh jammer nearly got me there hello i don't know is the is the the spawning animation shorter when uh when the level goes up because it seemed like i would have been able because i saw him come in there and i was able to avoid him but i really felt like i actually couldn't have avoided the one i just died too a minute ago but maybe i just maybe if i watch it back then i'd understand the q might be a bit longer than i thought it was this is a nice little setup here so getting getting the fruit doesn't get rid of the white ah [Music] it's always confusing because that makes it look like your second but i'm actually fourth i thought it was third so getting rid of the fruit doesn't get rid of the white jammers i need to keep that in mind as well i'm enjoying pac-man 99 very much i'm not stomping people the way i did in the mario 35 but uh but uh i you know i i i'm a big fan of pac-man i always wanted to get better at it this is my chance to play it a lot more and get a better feel for it and stuff so no i totally disagree drew uh it says that i respect breath of the wild's commitment to having the player go anywhere and do anything out of the tutorial but it could have benefited from some sort of upgrades and classic zell items well i say i totally disagree i think i agree i agree to a point i agree that what was there could have been better like if you i don't know how many people actually pause to read what my suggestions were on the um on the little suggestion sheet that i had in the review but there the game does actually give you some upgrades as you go through it um uh come to think of it i'm just kind of putting this together now but come to think of it the game the chat outside of maybe the champion stuff the game does a good job of not telling you that you're about to get an upgrade and so that you should go there and do that so you get an upgrade you know what i mean uh like you you don't know that you're going to get when you get mifa's uniform that you're going to be able to swim up waterfalls you don't know that before you go and do it and that's good anyway so there is some things like that you know and i do think they could have been handled better by just sort of attributing them to you as something that you permanently get rather than putting them on the clothes you know but the point where i would disagree is if you said that you need and like it should have items where you get the items so you can progress in a new area that would totally defeat the purpose of the game the whole purpose of the game is that you never need to do that to progress and i i love that about it and i think that's more zelda you know and i think uh i think that gives them a reason to go back and do more metroid games now as well you know because if they carry on that way with zelda there's less overlap with metroid and if people get their metroid and they get that fix and zelda offers them something else and that's the way it probably always should have been you know i don't know it looks like i'm still sending white jammers i mean i'm tempted to swap over to the strong but it seems to really impact the power pellet and i don't know that i'm good enough to actually survive without a decent power i wonder if the number matters and continues to matter then getting 150 has got to be pretty good this oh that was a severe speed drop right there ugh regarding your abduction review have you used the ram drive for anything else no it's rare that you would get a game that would fit onto it and leave you enough ram to actually play as well uh yeah i don't think i used it for anything else i'm still using i haven't upgraded in a very long time i know i was talking about it on a recent stream a really long time i'm still on a hard drive my games are still on hard drives and it's just it's at the point where i just don't want to use it anymore you know what's your favorite watanabe anime bebop champloo or dandy um i like them all i think that it's been a long time since i've seen it but i remember really really liking uh champloo's final episode and that goes a long way but i think overall bebop and dandy are the better shows uh i'd probably give it to dandy i'd say danny i'm a dandy guy i think i really like i really like bebop but i think it's i think it's strength gotta stop eating the fruit compulsively uh i think its strength lies in its well it's got nice world building and stuff and it's got some really nice episodic plots but i think the thing the thing that it would have over something like dandy uh or most of her anime is that it's is the characterization you know and while i do really love the characters i think that you get better characterization in live-action stuff you know so it's not really what i'm going to animate for i'm not going to animate for characterization i'm going to generally i'm going to see something that i don't think would work in live action you know and so dandy dandy delivers on that front a lot better i'd say the the downside is probably a weak episode of dandy is worse than a week episode of of bebop there are some space dandy episodes that i would probably skip if i was gonna i've forgotten a lot of the show now but if it was like i'm gonna watch space dandy once a year which i could probably happy happily do but if i was gonna do that there's probably a couple episodes i just go okay i'm gonna skip that one can't remember what they are though do not underestimate the jammers i gotta i gotta get into the habit of waiting in place as well i mean it's a valid strategy right it burns some time it means that your opponent is probably going up in speed and you're not and that's very valuable this is dangerous this is a really dangerous situation okay there we go we got out of it oh come on so [Music] you think the circle timer should be placed somewhere else yeah i was thinking that would be kind of nice to have it nearer to you my eyes are often glancing at it it's handy to know the exact timing maybe there's maybe there'd be a way to represent it visually on the ghosts themselves or something yeah it's kind of far away from where you tend to be looking why did i do that why do i keep doing it you just see fruit and eat fruit that's just how it is brain thinking of the brain just goes see-through eat fruit i suppose the reason i don't want to sit still is because i don't want my combo to drop but if i don't have a combo there doesn't really seem to be a downside to sitting still and letting them come to me like a cat as miyamoto would say if i i think this is the next layer of strategy here okay i think i'm discovering the next layer of strategy all right if i let if i can make sure that the fruit spawns and then wear out as much time as possible on the pills the game is probably getting faster for my opponents and not getting as fast for me [Music] so it is although i'm not i'm losing like no as long as you want to balance it you want to keep the pill you want to keep the combo going but you want to wear it out as long as possible even if that means sitting still in front of a pill for a moment until the blue circle is almost empty [Laughter] that's my that's my thinking anyway i haven't been outside in a long time i don't i don't have covered probably i probably don't have code i go on the occasional walk and that's it i need to take my own advice i need to wait eat all the dots and just wait it out wait it out now the game is getting faster for everybody else it's not getting faster for me right now it's getting faster for everybody else and there we go and we get the next we get the next pill this is this is maybe not a point in the game's favor because okay well that's a shame let it drop because waiting there for those first few pills to run there takes a little bit of time ah i missed the turn uh uh jammers nearly blocked me from getting the killer okay that's a really bad corner up there i'm not going for that and the nice thing as well because the red jammers stop when you have a pill active if you're waiting for a pill you know that red jammer can't just walk into you so you can walk into them but they can't walk into you i wish i knew exactly what triggered the fruit because it's really just a good feeling of when it's going to trigger if there's maybe something i miss in there it would be good to know i think it's really just the amount of dots you've eaten there we go it's actually not that dissimilar from how you would play bass pac-man when you think about that they're waiting for the pill because you would often do that in pac-man anyway too because you need them to get closer to you so you can eat them no i never got to the end of pac-man i uh um i i know that there's patterns that you can learn but i've intentionally never learned them because i imagine it would make the game less fun to know them i just want to play pac-man i just want to play it in a nice casual way you know so we'll see i'm not i'm not convinced that this strategy has totally broken the game just because i won the first round where i figured it out uh but if it has i because people will eventually catch on to this anyway so but if it does get to be a problem then i can consider putting the limiters on like i did with uh mario my i don't know what to say right now i was speculating on the strategy before i knew it i've run out i'm not really interested in learning new strategy right now i just want to apply this one should be enough to trigger the next fruit there i wonder no it's not i was gonna i was gonna say i wonder if round five is always the freebie round but it's not it's random because it's sometimes the very first round oh that was i don't know about that maneuver yeah cost me the combo probably not worth it oh i won anyway okay haha get matt matthew is superior [Laughter] i raise a toast to you matt what's up ah not yet no i'm okay i i stand in solidarity in solidarity with matt i i stand in solidarity with him i think we've established that i'm i'm actually matthewed out you know so we'll we'll have to distinguish me from that you'll have to you'll have to address me by my proper term going forward thank you it's actually it's funny doing this now it feels more much more like regular pac-man and i don't dislike that you know me i like my pac-man so uh oh wait i don't want any more speed ups yeah i don't think i do i think i i got enough two is where i like it maybe like three do i i'll try i'll try three that's a bit fast for me is that where i've been doing it oh the jammer is right on the dot oh come on take that annoys me i'm pretty sure i had a power up the whole time right they should at least spawn on a tile as well if they're not gonna snap to tiles or like halt on tiles they should at least spawn on them right did he spawn there like that [Music] well whatever i'm gonna i'm gonna stop at two speed this time yeah speed is zero so i wanna i wanna leave it at two i think foreign okay that's it no more board clears just focus on building up a train just eat enough to get the fruit to spawn guaranteed fruit spawn and go for it ah i missed the turn missed the turn i'm gonna have to go for the pill did i keep it i think i kept that live no i missed it do lost it again there didn't i think so it's a shame that that jammer spawned there oh missed it again it's bad very bad could have a very big combo by now you hmm oh i'm i'm die no how do you feel about the battle royale format meme and its application to other games mario and pac-man i don't think that this is i don't think that this is a proper competitive game or anything same with mario and tetris it's just kind of a but it's nice i mean i think there's probably some i don't know i think one reason it works which i don't know if i'm shattering an illusion here for people but one reason it works is that it probably doesn't it probably doesn't actually work as well as it makes you believe that it does you know um people probably are not synced to the level of to the level that you might expect i don't know actually no i don't want to say that because i know in in mario was probably the best example because you could actually see the specific garbage that you were sending to people because it wasn't just generic you know jammers or pieces or whatever it was actual uh okay he's definitely gonna have a bowser showing up on his screen in a couple of seconds and that would happen so i don't know yeah well i think i think part of what makes it work is the fact that you are just kind of playing solo so you don't really you don't experience any lag on your end you know if somebody else is lagging or something like that uh you you just get a nice play experience regardless of what's happening with the other people which uh is good it's very good but for me at least that's a large part of what makes this format work and the short match times or short uh matchmaking times and things like that you know it's not like it's a serious thing or anything but it's it's a nice little twist on pac-man i think pac-man is one of the better games for it oh whoa okay yeah i forgot i'm trying to trying to run out the clock getting a feel for the jammers now as well i knew that i shouldn't i shouldn't uh try to eat all the other dots there because there was too many jammers around i knew it was going to slow me down enough that i needed to just get to the pill that's good that is a really bad place for him to spawn oh maybe the no no that could be it maybe the pill thing only kicks in when the pill energy is low when the timer on it is low if you eat a ghost when it's low so you don't just die while you're eating the train i don't know i really wish i knew for sure that the the combo actually meant something uh i was close because i was in bad shape there so i didn't win much that time yeah if you eat all the dots on the board you get a speed a permanent speed boost which is helpful in the later rounds when the ghosts start to outpace you um otherwise you have to eat a certain amount of dots to spawn the fruit and the fruit is what resets the power pills so i think you might do a video comparing tetris 99 pac-man 99 and mario 35 now uh now well i wouldn't i don't have any footage of mario 35 so that would be a problem straight away uh but yeah i don't think it's the kind of thing i would do i i don't think they're games to be taken particularly seriously on the other hand i don't know i i can't say i could see myself putting a lot of hours into this one um just because i really enjoy pac-man and this is a nice new spin on it so there's that it's it's one of those weird things it's because i can say it's not really worth taking seriously but at the same time i'm really enjoying it you know so that is important obviously that's why you play games in the first place to enjoy them uh but i don't know what i would say about it it's uh you're gonna get you're gonna get really lucky or unlucky at times and and the reason the reason i'm doing well right now is because i'm ahead of the curve strategically you know once i figured out that i should delay eating the pellets which some people probably do automatically because it is a good thing to do in regular pac-man as well um so those people are those people are ahead of the curve right now and uh that's the reason why i'm doing well once everybody works out the strategy i don't know look is probably going to play a pretty big factor in whether or not you're going to win which is not something that i like in a competitive game you know shouldn't have done that i'm supposed to get that pallet up on the top don't know why i didn't it's okay i kind of made up for it there because the combo dropped so i got to wait longer than i would have anyway i'm just gonna wait it's nice as well there's some nice subtlety to the game as well like how you obviously want to aim for the train because that's going to get you a big combo and presumably getting a big combo actually accomplishes something but you know clearing out the other ghosts is going to make you safer because they they are all in different locations so again you sometimes you might want to just kill the regular ghosts rather than focusing on the train i let it drop there did i yeah that's unfortunate i also like how they positioned them in the the lanes there where there wasn't much going on before oh that was close i don't know how i got away with that that was very close that's the perfect position for those extra spawning ghosts to give that part of the map a little bit more importance oh missed the turn because i was slowed mega man 99 everybody imagine in their 99s i reckon if they do another one it's going to be another classic arcade game something like space invaders or something like that galaga maybe galaga is uh namco isn't it so they might be up for doing another one after this i think i think galaga probably makes more sense than space invaders just because of the way the enemies behave you know you've already got different enemy types built in there i wonder oh i'm having i'm having some more thoughts here i have been defaulting to just picking up a pill but i don't necessarily need to do that i don't need to pick up a pill at the start of the match i mean i can just actually play pac-man for a minute you know so then if i delay getting the first pellet then i can delay for a very long time because i don't have to worry about the combo that's a little cheap there has there's got to be a work around mechanically to avoid that because that's that's not good if that's uh if that turns out to be an optimal way of playing delaying the first pellet as long as possible i mean okay you could rack up kills and presumably that does something i think in tetris it sent more garbage to the enemy the more medals he had so that's something i don't know foreign well i don't want any more speed i don't don't know why i'm getting all the dots okay i still love the combo that's very good oh oh man i thought i had picked up that pellet okay thought i had already picked up the pellet and i knew he died for no reason there i feel like i get more eliminations when i get a big combo there's got to be something to it that is a really bad placement on him there and and him and him what the i really need a fruit now oh and him as well off stop spawning near the pills oh i didn't even see where i was there man i thought it was still on this sort of highway up the middle it was moving too fast for me i was trying to turn back i was turned away from pinky and i didn't realize i turned right theoretically more speed is always better for a skillful player i suppose you're right about that yeah yeah i don't know if this if this gets faster than actual pac-man at some speed maybe speed four would be faster than actual pac-man this real pac-man doesn't get that fast it gets pretty fast but it doesn't get it doesn't get anywhere near as fast as the uh championship edition or anything like that it's just the fact that the power pill stops working after a while that makes it hard my curious if the laptop fan is coming through on the mic is it because it sounds pretty loud to me right now i don't know why it's not even warm in here was it the last game i feel like i got some pretty bad jet red jammers on that uh last game near the pills i wonder if there's there's probably some kind of algorithm i play decided i'm just going to get the fruit now deciding where they spawn somewhere in front of you maybe maybe it's totally around the mother that's unfortunate how did i get up to speed 3 anyway i must have accidentally cleared the board well if you get that uh if you get that freebie board you probably just get your speed boost to do it now say in the matter it'd be kind of nice for the freebie board to have a single dot in each corner maybe just outside just in the uh so someone's tempted to start pointing at the screen as if you can see me just say where the speed label is just to the right of that you know you put a single dot in each of those corners so that the player can decide whether or not they want to trigger that speed boost [Music] eating a train gives you as a time stop more advantageous than sitting still i don't think so no i mean well they're kind of it depends on when you're sitting still but they're uh they're not mutually exclusive actions first of all you can wait for your pill to run down and then just eat a train with it you know but you you can definitely run out more time by just sitting there waiting to pick the thing up then you would get by pausing the meter just by eating eating the train i mean i don't know what i'm saying uh i haven't been able to pay attention to what happens when you actually eat a train i presume you have to eat the entire train for the the main ghost to actually be killed by that it wouldn't really make sense any other way so the main ghost must just spawn at the head of the train when the the the power up wears off right this good it's unfortunate that i let that run out right when i got down to the last guy as well it's a shame ah okay i had to use least play genre as bullet hells right yeah that sounds about right yeah dad poor dad dad in number six just can't catch a break i think it's really funny that you see people call dad on because of the way the naming thing works it's great you hear kojima's next game might be on xbox probably won't make you get one but i think it's interesting news nonetheless i saw that there's a rumor floating around about that i don't know i haven't really looked into it i assume he's probably going to release it on pc anyway so i don't really mind i don't mind who publishes it know i wasn't as hot on that stranding as a lot of people but uh i am still glad it got made and i hope that uh i hope that he gets to making some stuff i hope that he doesn't do that stranding too although i do think that that stranding too could be good um but i think i think it would need a i think it would need a need maybe a bigger hook to it than they'd be willing to go for i don't know what am i talking about kajim is willing to do anything you know i want uh this isn't a spoiler for anybody by the way if you're listening to this but i i want that stranding on the moon you know i want the there's that intro at the start with the ludens guy and he's standing on the moon and i just thought man it would be cool if there was a space not even just not even the moon necessarily but space that stranding you know that's trending where you're you're outside you got a suit you got to manage your oxygen and all that kind of stuff you could do a lot more with it there i think maybe i suppose you you probably wouldn't want to set it on the moon because the gravity is too low to make the gameplay interesting uh but you maybe you could set it on a planet with maybe maybe set it on a planet with higher gravity than ours actually that that could be a way of uh that could be a way of making it work uh it's kind of unintuitive but you probably would want to do that rather than having a low gravity thing for that kind of game but uh something like that i think that would be cool that's me whatever i hope you make something else i don't care who publishes it i'm i'm gonna play it whatever he makes i'm gonna play it if it's death stranding too i'll play it if it's some even if it looks totally unappealing to me he's just one of those people who has earned enough goodwill for me that i'm probably gonna play despite some of my problems with the the hollywood obsession that he has and the face scanning really does bug me i know a lot of you don't get it but it's it's it's such a shitty thing to bring into games it's just a terrible terrible habit to bring across into games we don't need it that's what i'm saying games don't need it so i really hate that but uh ah it you know i'll play whatever he makes you don't need to eat the whole train ever ah that sucks you don't need to eat the whole train every time by the way you just need to trim it enough so that the next time you run past them you're not wasting them i i don't think there's any need to it's satisfying obviously it's very satisfying but you don't need to actually do that you just need to make sure that you're not wasting the the ghost pickups you know hmm yeah i uh oh i thought i lost there i thought the pill ran out and the guy coming out got me i think that the the jammer the red jammers have a higher likelihood of spawning in the quadrant that you're heading towards if i had to guess maybe it's totally random though you know the human brain is funny isn't it i don't mean mo cap no i mean yeah you're right i don't mean mo cap necessarily i mean face scanning face scanning i don't think mocap is very good honestly right now either but it's not necessarily the mocap that's the problem it's the the face scanning is the bigger problem if developers want to do mocap and stuff i will say i don't i don't necessarily think that's a good idea but i don't think it's the end of the world either like i said the last of us too has some really good facial uh moments in it and stuff you know um but putting in famous faces is just there's just no need for it man it's just it's just totally unnecessary you know i'll tell you while we're on the topic of death stranding try and guess right if you had to guess what would be my if i could have one invention from that stranding what would it be because i'll tell you because the answer may surprise you all right this isn't this is now a clickbait video the answer may surprise you okay one invention with all the cool technology in the game what's the one invention i i want out of the game i'll tell you what it is because there's a delay i might as well just tell you now the the yeah the one thing i want is in the shower the uh the big full body blow dryer thing i man i would love to have that i would love to have that when i get out of the shower i feel like i just when i'm damp like that i just feel like i can't do anything you know and it's just it's terrible if i had the option to get one of those things i would if i was rich or something i would love to have that big full bloody body blow dryer and just you just step in dry get out you're done that's it i would love it being damp is a waste of time then you can quote me on that alright oh and by the way just so in case there's any confusion i sometimes allow my hair to grow quite long so that's one reason why because i know i can try my body with a tail i know that but you know even then i don't know but it's the hair the hair that gets me i need a haircut is what i'm saying just use a towel yeah i should have clarified that first you know even with a towel it's you know it's ah i don't know it's just just i just want that i want that whole process over within 10 seconds if i can you know done that's it [Music] i'm gonna attempt to not pick up a pill for a minute why he has this is strange actually i i noticed this but i i didn't i didn't say anything but blinky has been going i need to pay more attention blinky has been no okay no i understand yeah i've been clearing out all the dots down the bottom left i was thinking blinky has been hitting me in the bottom left way sooner than he should be able to but it's because i've been eating all the dots that's why i haven't just been going straight to there for the pill so in case anybody doesn't know this uh every ghost has a home that they like to go to so blinky goes to the top right corner pinky goes to the top left inky goes to the bottom left and clyde goes to the bottom right and at the start of every round that's where they go and they'll always go to that corner so you're always if you're starting a new round of pac-man this works in in 99 as well if you're starting a new round of pac-man you can always just clear out the bottom left or bottom right with no danger because uh pinky and blinky will uh go to the top right and top left corner you know you could probably even though i like how the game is deterministic that's probably actually a little flaw with it i know i talked about this at length about how you can kind of solve the game and that's a problem but i just mean if you were if you are programming it now with all the knowledge that you have about how people are going to play it probably would make more sense to send blinky and pinky to opposite corners of the map you know so that the player has less free time where they're not worried about danger at all you want to have a ghost closer than that although i don't man it's amazing how such a simple game like pac-man can be so complicated when you think about it you know because there's a slight delay on when uh blinky and pinky emerge so if you sent them to different corners then actually that might be bad because uh because the delay would mean that uh you know blinky would off somewhere else and then pinky would be in the same corner it actually probably is a good thing that they both go to the same side of the screen uh because of that delay you know i i doubt i explained that well at all but i just mean that they they would probably if if they were in opposite corners they would probably just both be able to pile on you at a certain you know 10 seconds into the the round or something like that there would be a moment where they would kind of converge quicker than they do right now because they have to touch their home base first before they can zone in on you so i don't know if that makes any sense but i said it and it's said and that's it and you can figure out hell not my problem i don't do that anymore i'm a pac-man 99 streamer now by the way this is what i do so get used to it he thought i was an alien soldier streamer no no in this house we play pac-man 99 i feel like i was in the zone there for a minute because i barely i don't even know what's happened i was just talking about the ghosts for a minute and i have no idea i have no idea what this match was even like hmm it's a good match now i think this is the longest i've ever seen it last with three people it's a shame that was a good match though that's after usa bandit pretty good hokie says the alien soldier community will be at your throat and mr krumsky says alien soldier community is a great joke there are dozens of us a lot of you know there are dozens of us reserve the praise for the the pack ones supersonic we it's pack one our bust that's it is the alien soldier community yeah somebody asked me about world of demons earlier i didn't i didn't talk about the uh saul cresta thing now i'm not a big shmoop guy you know that not a big schmuck guy i uh i think it's cool that they're that platinum are doing a little arcade game i've wanted them to do that for ages right i i hope it works out for them my only problem with it is and of course of course i gotta have a problem with it it's like it's such a very specific thing going i think i think this developer should make this style of game and see how it works for them and then when they do it you go you know what you know actually but it's it's a very minor quibble right but uh i'm not a schmuff guy but i think i think it's a problem it's not a big problem but i don't know why they have to use an established ip for it you know i think i'd be more excited if it was a new ip and it could be the exact same game but like the problem is just that terra cresta and uh what's it mooncrest or whatever terracresta is 41 years old you know the number of people who care about it is low right like it's as old as pac-man and the number of people that care about pac-man is already quite low much lower than it should be so i don't i just think that's kind of a mistake i hope if they do more that they they although they're calling it the neo classic arcade series but i hope if they do more they throw in a couple of originals in there or something that would be nice you know but i think it's cool i'd like to see more developers do little arcade games i think i think platinum is a good fit for it i don't know i like i'm not a business guy and i don't care about business at all you know um but i think there's a certain business logic to it as well i think you know if you want to pitch something to people you it's good to at least have an argument as to why it makes sense from a business perspective too i think there is some business logic in there i've talked about it a little bit before but it's like there's a you can either you can mitigate risk by one uh taking the game that you have and homogenizing it so that it appeals to more people or two scaling back on the game producing something more niche but just producing more niche stuff and maybe in different niches you know so if you make you know you could make like i don't know make a arcade game and make a visual novel you know what i mean and just see which one comes out because okay both of them it's very unlikely that both of them will be successful but you've now doubled your chances i think in a way you know what i mean you've given yourself two opportunities that was a very easy match ghosts going diagonal what are you talking about [Music] i think yeah i did talk about this idea before and i also i did raise a good kind of counter argument which is that it's probably hard to keep people feeling the more you split up your say you have a big team with 100 or even 200 people and you go okay we're going to adopt uh matthew mitosis's brilliant genius approach to uh you know foolproof approach to uh business strategy right and what we're going to do is we're just going to split up we have 100 people that means we can have uh 10 teams of 10 people right you you think about the size of the average indie team it's less than 10 people right and and they make some good games in the community so right so now we're making 10 games instead and then it it turns out that you know two of the games are a massive success uh four of them bomb and you know a couple other ones just kind of break even well i gotta imagine it's harder to keep everybody under the one roof then it's hard to keep everybody feeling like they're all on the same team in that scenario because if you did work on the successful game you'd probably be going you know you'd probably be going uh why you know why am i why am i subsidizing everybody else here you know at least some people would think that i think everybody can say that they're an idealist and i don't know i i'm not money hungry in the slightest uh you know i've i always focus on quality over like what's gonna actually bring me in money right so i would like to think that i would behave nicely in that situation but i think there's a lot of people who would like to think that they would be fine with that situation and actually wouldn't be okay with that situation if it actually happened to them you know and they'd be going well uh right see you later you know i'm a success and you're not so uh there's no reason for me to work here anymore and i'll uh you know there's my there's my there's my two weeks notice and i'll go and make another game with these ten guys and we'll just copy what we did before and it'll be a success you know what i mean that's gotta be part that's gotta be a problem there's got to be a way of addressing that within the company you know what i mean and as well i've been thinking as well because you know me i work by myself but i've been thinking you know what if i if i wanted a little team and it's you go you think to yourself i don't know if i should be talking about this but i will because whatever right you think it would be nice if say you brought on other people if you could go well that's profit share you know i'm i'm not hungry i want everybody to get their fair piece of the pie but what i would worry about about that personally is that i know it wouldn't influence me because if i have an idea that i want to pursue i would go it this is gonna bomb but we're doing it anyway right yeah we're doing 15 alien soldier streams in a row and if you don't like it that's that you know what i mean or or you know you can either watch this the zachtronics reviews or not right and you either like them or you don't and that's it i'm going to do them either way because i'm passionate about it right i know i'm capable of doing that i don't know if i trust everybody to be able to do that so when it turns out that if you bring in a profit-sharing thing then you go you've got people on the team who are maybe more hungry and will will change the design of the game to bring in the maximum amount of money you know what i mean get rid of our get going but but the problem is so you can go like okay if it's a team you can just oversee them and make sure that doesn't happen but you know if the team gets large you want to trust it's not just going it's not just going okay i don't like that because i think it's going to appeal to more people right first of all you can't do that because you want your game to be good right you want people to enjoy your game and a large part of that is just following what you think is good uh but also that will align with what other people like a lot of the time too right so you can't just go okay well people you know people are going to like that and so you know you're doing that for the money or whatever you also want to know when it comes to every tiny little decision you know say you go to somebody uh i don't know you know we want a certain we want music for the game what kind of style do you think is going to work best you know and they come out with something that a lot of other games are doing or you know something that happens to be popular around the time that the game is made and you think you know well you don't want to always be second guessing are you saying that because that's going to give you a bigger profit share at the end of the day or do you actually think that that's what works you know yeah so it's it's and i think that that that's that's it's in the same ballpark as what i'm talking about i've digressed a little bit but i think it's in the same ballpark as what i'm talking about when i'm talking about teams making smaller games like that you know but there's got to be there's got to be i think i think you know platinum's probably got a nice balance they'll they can probably get a nicer balance going where they can make some really small games and then you use that as a training exercise for your staff you know like what happened with beautiful joe that was apparently just a way of getting some of the staff to improve their skills right it was like a design exercise for cameo and i don't know i think it was one of the first games uh inaba produced i think so it's it's building up their skills but then it's like okay well once you've done that then you know you can come and you can make this bigger game as well you probably need to have a little bit of both going on if i'm being honest but yeah in general i would like to see more small stuff i think there's a there's a right way and a wrong way to do small stuff like for example insomniac tried to do that with the ratchet series and i i really didn't like that for that i think that part of the problem there was using an established ip you know i'm not saying those games were bad i only played i think i played quest for booty and i enjoyed what i played of it i'm not sure i even finished it but it it was good it was a perfectly good ratchet game but it just it was like i know this series i i just want a little bit more meat on the bones here because i've had this before with this game you know whereas if you just go well we have this idea for something else and we can make that instead i think that can that can work better you know good and bad ways to do it i think as with most things out there i feel like i'm just yammering now how do i not have a fruit yet this is bad this is really bad [Music] no was bad i underestimated the fruit [Music] can you put public domain music in your game i don't know what that means i don't know what you mean by that i'm sure you can yeah i mean you can legally of course you can if it's in the public domain you can you can do anything with it certain prestige making a traditional single player game that doesn't come with making smaller games at least that's the vibe i get from developers i agree i agree somewhat i think um i agree somewhat i i know for example i don't know i think it depends on the person as well i for example i said this before you know lucas pope i'm pretty sure that's the papers please an aubergine developer i'm pretty sure he was a naughty dog at one point and i you know there's obviously a lot of talent at the studio but obviously but they they probably can't all be lucas pope right there's like a reason why he's had two big successes like that in a row um he's just a clever guy and he's made some good novel interesting games right uh personally if you ask me would i rather have worked on uncharted than the last of us or papers please in auburn i would rather have done papers please in overden i would rather have those under my belt i think that's a more impressive resume personally especially because he's much more intimately involved in the creation of every aspect of them you know um i don't know yeah i just don't see i just don't care about scale the way a lot of people do i think and i think a lot of a lot of people a lot of players don't care about scale as much as people try to say that they do you know there is a there is a certain aspect of it like for example if if all of those sony first party studios stopped making big a games tomorrow you would get a considerable contingent of uh of the fans the you know people who have maybe a playstation and nothing else they they would be upset you know like there's a considerable amount of people who would be upset by that and they're not wrong if they buy the console and that's what they're expecting to get out of it that's not wrong of them you know so there will be a lot of people upset by that but it wouldn't upset me personally there is i i think in terms of selling consoles and stuff like that there is it's it's definitely something you need to sell consoles i'll put it that way for whatever reason you need big games to sell consoles i think it's because i think it's because if you had smaller games it's kind of hard to keep all that in memory you know like you can say to people okay zelda and mario and metroid are exclusive to nintendo and you can only get them there and that's it whereas if you go if you list off 10 games that they're only maybe vaguely interested in and they're quite small then you go uh why do i buy why do i buy a switch again oh yeah yeah because you know oh yeah there's like those three games that i'm i'm sort of you know i can see the value in the heavy hitters are easier to remember and they're kind of important for pushing consoles in that way a lot of red jammers right now i really need some fruit i that's a really bad red jammer that's a lot of red jammers there did you watch kano's journey subbed or dubbed i always watch anime subbed you can't honestly be asking if mario 64 was a big game you can't honestly be asking that question off yes it was a big game i didn't even have an n64 it was a big game don't know about you but gravity rush 2 was a ps4 system seller it didn't sell a ps4 to me because um i didn't hate gravity rush but i i was not as enamored by it as most people um but i am happy it got made i think it's it has a really nice world and i like some of the music and actually i should probably put one of the tracks on my my favorites playlist maybe but uh it's a nice world and uh you know i commend them for trying something i i think the gameplay was a little bit repetitive and uh i wasn't really that into it i didn't give the second game much time maybe it's better i know they i know they put effort into it they certainly expanded on it with the different forms and stuff so i probably should give it another chance but it was never really for me but on on the flip side the japan studio shutdown does make me more reluctant to get a ps5 because it's not just about gravity rush right it's not just going oh you didn't like i didn't really care for gravity rush so you know um so therefore japan studios there's just something nice about having that variety of games that you can't get elsewhere you know that was what i always liked about playstation i always felt like it had a i always felt like i had a nice variety it had a bigger a bigger uh variety than uh than even nintendo you know like a lot of nintendo stuff falls into the the gameplay first category which is obviously my my preference you know but at the same time i'm very thankful that sony funded a game like journey right or shadow of the colossus or whatever else so and then i just don't see that from them these days that's and the gravity rush thing is part of that you know the japan studio thing is part of that it's not that okay they need to have gravity rush for me to care right because they don't but they need to have something that i'm gonna go oh this is interesting because i as much as i i go oh i didn't you know gravity rush didn't click with me i at least did find it conceptually interesting you know here's a game where you can just fly around everywhere right you control you've got gravity under command i mean that's that's just interesting that's that's a cool premise right and i had a nice nicely rendered world and stuff and i had no idea if that red jammer was gonna kill me or not i think that's the biggest problem with this game so far i also don't really like the way the train sort of jumps like that i feel like i should just be able to sit there and eat them all this i should have i turned around and went against the train there i should have followed it now a red jammer spawned in which kind of complicated this situation i should have followed that though because i would have gotten the a lot of them and it would have taken me much closer to the pellet up on the top right so i shouldn't have turned around there that was my big mistake there so the gravity rush guys started a studio and they're gearing up for a horror title yeah i saw that yeah uh yeah i hope it turns out well for them i don't know let's see i would prefer something that's not harder personally i'm not a big horror guy i've played a lot of horror games but i'm not a big horror guy do you ever play paper mario origami king i haven't no i haven't played um i haven't played color splash uh yeah no i was right look at that blinky came right down to me is this special behavior he has when there's only pills at the start or something um that is not something he's supposed to be able to do uh i've played i played the first three paper marios and not not the rest so played thousand year door the first one thousand gear door and uh super paper mario i like them all i i you know i i don't think that super paper mario is as good as the other two but i really even back in the day before everyone started to go okay this is at least it was much better than sticker star which i haven't played so i don't know how bad that is or how good it is and i always thought that it was a bit harshly treated super fast maybe i'd feel differently if i went back to it but i thought it was all right i thought it was okay and i think uh i do think i do think uh as much as i liked the thousand-year door it was it was very much a retread of the first game i think i played thousand gear door first and then i played the original just because i had a gamecube i didn't have an n64 i had a gamecube so it was just easier to get my hands on a thousand-year door back in the day i think i played that one first and then i went back and played the original a few years later and um and i remember going wow this is really similar to a thousand year tour you know but they are they're both they're both good that's very good i like the you know you can probably guess this about me i like the uh including some skill in the turn-based combat i like that like that you don't have to take damage if you're good enough you know look you know me well enough by now don't you you don't need well enough by now i think you got an idea right i like it uh yeah i have been meaning to get around to uh color splash and then i'll try origami king eventually i'm interested i've heard a lot of people who disliked disliked uh the the later ones they they were okay with the origami king and i don't know i i am sympathetic to the i like i have again i haven't played it so i don't know that much but apparently you don't level up you use stickers or something and people really hate that it does sound kind of bad from what i know about it that you're always expending items in combat that doesn't sound very enjoyable that's how i understand it to be anyway um but uh i don't know i don't know i'm sympathetic to the idea that uh a lot of rpgs are just you know you level up and you get stronger and that's kind of it you know and it's it's stupid there's a great quote i don't know if i've used it before i was i think i was 10 i was tempted to use it in metamicro videos i just think maybe i was thinking i was tempted to use it again somewhere anyway but miyamoto has this great quote about rpgs where he talks about how your hands you know your it's like starting a game with your hands tied behind your back right i'm paraphrasing here obviously it's like starting a game with your hands tied behind your back and then the developer slowly unbinds your hands and says oh look now you're having fun see and you know technically i suppose it's correct that you're having more fun at the end and you had it to start or whatever but the nintendo approach is to start with your hands unbound and go from there you know which i i think is much better do you like mario and luigi rpgs yeah i think i i kind of like them more than the paper mario games in a way um just because i think the two button the two button combat is more interesting you know like the way enemies will target mario or luigi and you gotta press the right button and you gotta figure out what q means which one they're gonna attack and stuff like that um i think they are a bit more bogged down though you know like it just seemed like every game they just got more bogged down and story and more bog down and a bunch of tutorials and and also starting you out from zero every time kind not exactly in the typical rpg-ish way you know but uh starting out from you know you don't have the hammer or whatever right you gotta go two hours before you get the hammer again you know things like that so i really fell off after the first couple of them uh i never finished bowser's inside story and that's where i stopped i thought that i thought the premise of uh luigi's dream team looked really fun but i never got around to it supposed to be on train there i don't want all the dots i got to keep reminding myself that i don't want all the dots all the time i can almost read the chat when i'm waiting to eat about it but not not quite yeah i liked partners in time uh at least from what i remember of it i i just like that it expanded the thing today abxy you know i thought that was pretty cool it was a pretty clever way of doing it there's some nice clever stuff in there like the way oh i got ah i was mistaken there oh why some wire got crossed and i was thinking that the fruit would refresh the the pill you know um some good stuff in there like the way when when you get knocked out you what is it something happens where they gotta pick up the kid and it makes them much harder to it makes it much harder to avoid attacks with them if somebody gets knocked out oh that's in there that's in the first game right i don't know yeah when one of them gets knocked out they become much more sluggish you know that's great that's such a great little touch i don't know why i grabbed the fruit there can somebody tell me why i grabbed the fruit there because i don't know i had a pill waiting for me that's it good old blinky bring them right to me thank you blinky blinky is my bro [Music] yeah the way i i think that was a bit of a disappointment going to bowser's inside story the way the x and y were no longer used you know it's kind of because it's just tacking it's just tacking more buttons onto stuff but well it was part of the appeal of the game you know fruit tastes good eat fruit now does smt-3 ever pick up matthew a little disappointing three hours in i feel i'm just using auto attack to win and it doesn't feel engaging enough to me uh i don't know what's happened in three hours i mean depending on how you're doing that could be a different a whole different length of time uh the thing that i like about nocturne is that it's basically a jrpg boss rush i don't know if you've gotten that far yeah it really starts to it really starts to become that around the time you you fight matador although you do get a bit of a break uh there i would say it's probably more once you've gotten to thor that's really when it starts just throwing boss after boss after boss actually that's that's one thing that i really like about it is that it's just boss fight after boss fight which is where the mechanics are at their most interesting because yeah i agree a lot of the time you can just mash through basic battles but that's like every jrpg you know at least in nocturne they're pretty snappy it's not as snappy as like what games at earthbound where you walk into something and you just defeat it if you're a high enough differential you can do that in persona 5 as well right so it's not it's not that snappy or anything but i you know that's another thing i love about nocturne and it's such a simple thing but like the amount of jrpgs that get it wrong is you know when you're playing and you got demi fiend there and you hit attack the second you hit attack demifain is already halfway across the screen to punch the guy in the face you know there's no it's not filled with the type of uh you find in other games where oh we've got a 10 minute attack that you have to watch now because this was cool at the time and you know uh now nobody gives a but you're still gonna have to watch it anyway you know uh it doesn't have any of that it doesn't have any of those problems in it and uh it's got a lot of boss fights and uh that's what i like about it so if you're already at a bunch of the boss fights and you still don't like it then it's probably not for you again i was thinking the fruit would reset the timer did i lose it i did oh briefly what was it like two frames it was gone or something hell why do they keep spawning on the pills that's really annoying man can we get a pill exclusion zone or some it would be worse when it gets into the late game like this it would be worth remembering which ghost is at the head of the train i presume it dictates their behavior even when they're in the train there's a big difference between having it on blinky or clyde it's actually it's really bad for it to be on clyde i suppose you really would want it to be on blinky and it might if you could i don't know if i can process the game to this degree especially when i'm streaming but it would be worse it would probably be worth going if it's on clyde delete the whole train if you can like if you have a little bit of wiggle room get rid of the whole train so that it can go on someone else instead and then if it's on blinky whittle it down because then he'll follow you around and you'll be able to kind of nibble away at it from time to time that would be another layer of strategy but i don't think i can kind of i don't think i'm at the point where i can process the game at that level right now would you like atlas to change up the combat a bit more for shimagami tensei five i suppose so yeah i see what you're saying about prester and being used too much i don't really like the combination of press press turn and smirk i think smirk was the wrong way to go i think it's much better in uh apocalypse i forget what the exact changes were there but um there were a few good changes like that the hammer and mudo scales only being instant kills if you have smirk i think that's how they worked right so there were some nice changes related to smirk but the problem with smirk is that it doubles down on press turn you get you get a bonus for exploiting the weakness of the enemy when exploiting the weakness of the enemy in itself is the bonus right so it shouldn't it shouldn't confer an extra bonus on top of that if anything what what i think the combat needs is like an anti-press turn like something that means that when you exploit too many weaknesses something bad happens right or maybe not even something bad necessarily because that might feel bad you know but some kind of counter measure needs to kick in when you exploit weaknesses over and over again that's really what the game needs not not something that doubles down on the weaknesses and actually rewards you rewards you for doing the thing which is advantageous you know that's that's the problem but at the same time i gotta say i i think strange journey has a great setting and a lot of great stuff to it but the the system that they used in that the demon co-op thing was bad man it was not better than turn so if they're gonna replace press turn they need to replace it with something that's better right if it's just gonna be something that's worse than there's no point um that's my caveat you know otherwise i would like to see the replacer or i'd like to see them tinker around with it more you know do something like i'm saying where instead of having smirk you have some other system that sits on top of press turn and add some some more variety to it i think that would be good but yeah you know i'm always in favor of change as long as it's done well as long as the sun won how many wins have i got tonight anybody been keeping track did i get any good streaks i don't know i haven't really been paying this engine i feel like i haven't got any good streaks i think i get a loss i'm not even sure i've won three in a row uh yeah somebody asked i can't see the full question but i saw ghosts and goblins there somebody's asking me about it i haven't played the new game but i'll give it a go i ended up watching a video of it watching uh some gameplay footage of it and uh i remember saying that it looked bad on my last stream i still don't think it looks good exactly but i do think it looks better than i gave it credit for it's not repulsive like you can see what they're going for i think maybe i was a little unnecessarily cruel to the visuals on one of the previous streams um so that aspect has been less of a turn off for me since i watched something about watching it in full you know full hd and oh that is just a terrible spawn there oh okay all right yes of course this makes sense so i've learned something new here again the way that the jammer pac-man is facing probably tells you which direction he's going to move when he starts moving so i hadn't actually put that together until just now which is maybe stupid of me but there's there's a bit going on in this game so like i said it'd be a lot easier to figure it out if you could spectate it it should be a good and bad thing i say if you could spectate it i could just look up the video of somebody else playing or i could watch this stream back which i might do you know or i could record video on my own switch so there's that another thing i'm not understanding is the strength of the power pill seems to go up and down it's very very short right now and i don't understand why is it cause i'm on speed i was on speed too long maybe i'm dead no i'm not okay oh that was close it looks like a story book it's going for a storybook kind of look and uh i i don't think it's i don't think it's the best i would prefer to just see nice pixel art personally um but it doesn't look as bad as i thought it did at first glance it's it's to the point where i can play it so i'm gonna play it at some point i don't know if i want to buy it on the switch though up on speed i'm on speed probably shouldn't have gone for that you might be able to kept the combo that's the main thing this is gonna be a hard board to clear now i think i'm just gonna have to commit to dropping the combo here i that up somehow i'm not sure how but i that up somehow there's no way i can get all this stuff at the bottom without dropping the camera in fact it's pretty dangerous in general i probably shouldn't even be going down here that was bad that was very bad that was bad have you seen the persona 3 movies i definitely watched at least one of them i don't think i finished them [Music] uh i thought it was okay i liked the i thought they got the color palette right you know um but you're just there's certain things you're not gonna be able to capture i don't know how the later films are but you know like some of the best moments in the game are uh what i can't remember which arcana it is but you know the the uh the social link with the guy in the park that's easily one of the best social links in the game and i don't think i saw him in the film at all so yeah why did i do that why did i eat the delicious fruit why do i do it it's okay we cleared the board so it's really not that bad i didn't miss a couple power pallets though which is not great i'm also ideally i would also wait longer at the start of the game before eating a pellet probably shouldn't have gone for that oh i was tracking myself there did i lose it i think i lost it man that was a lot of jammers not doing so well now we were getting wins why are we not getting wins 24 i'm not pack 24 i'm pack one what's my favorite fruit i don't know actually bananas maybe i'd like to have a banana smoothie from time to time i don't have a lot of fruit intake ever watch venture bros no i've never seen venture bows [Music] and i haven't had grapes and ages i would have forgotten grapes existed if you hadn't just said grapes grapes what are grapes i used to eat a lot of grapes at one point they're a good snack food why did i do it why did i eat the fruit stop eating the fruit man i'm blaming chat for that one you got me thinking about eating fruit and that's no good we don't want to eat the fruit in this game fruit is bad for you in pac-man you want to eat ghosts pac-man eats ghosts not fruit pack diet the ideal pack diet consists of 90 ghosts 10 fruit fruit eaten at the last possible second before dying right that's how you you ward off death because you just eat the fruit at the last possible second well otherwise you want to eat ghosts 100 of the time we reckon ghosts taste like anyway they're blue so they must they must taste blue first of all it's gotta be a blue flavor you know what i mean uh i'm gonna say parma violets they taste like parma violets because if i saw this many parma violets in a row i could probably eat them like that i could probably do a big pac-man jump on them parma violet is a good answer i haven't been able to read the chat and i can't see i can't see but i'm betting it's a better answer than most of the chat i'm just going to try that out there because there's something there's something ethereal about the perma violin okay because it's uh it's a it's it's like a flowery taste it's the taste of a flower essentially i think right and uh and there's something about that that's that's ghostly flowers are ghostly aren't they there's something to it you know i'm right don't pretend don't pretend don't pretend you don't know i'm right okay there's some probably some trying to pretend that i'm not right i'm right okay there is something there's something ethereal about department violence and you know it and don't pretend you don't know it blinky he's my friend he brings ghosts to me he delivers ghosts to me blinky is a part of the gig economy he's a delivery driver oh it was on standard was i on standard for the whole match i'm supposed to be on train it's because it's chalky yeah you're right that's why it's cause they're chalky that's part of the reason why i think the flower thing has something to it but the chalk has something to it as well char it's like bones or something you know it's very uh it's very cemetery isn't it the chalkiness it tastes like perfume yeah and perfume is ghostly as well because when you see a ghost you go you imagine perfume they smell they must smell like perfume right now because that's weird right do you plan on making any more commentaries a la the dark souls or demon souls commentaries well i made devil may cry and beautiful joe commentaries so there's those um otherwise no i don't i don't i don't plan on making any more anythings i don't i don't make things anymore i play pac-man i eat ghosts for a living look look at me go look at me go i feel very fast okay okay we're cutting it a bit fine here we're not going to be able to keep the combo going well as long as we don't die i'm happy enough to get my speed up and carry on so i don't need all the pellets anymore i just need power pellets power pills is it a pill or a pellet is it a puck what is it seems like that probably spawns them on the closest ghost to you i haven't been thinking about that until just now oh ah i wasn't i was watching the ghost train i wasn't looking at myself and i didn't realize i was getting jammed and uh so i thought if i tapped up and down i would have eaten the pellet that's pretty good actually i think i think when when when you get swarmed by jammers like that i think there's a slight delay between because they die when they touch you they kind of die and i think there's a slight delay between different ones dying okay my hypothesis about the red jammers pointing the direction they're gonna go was that's not true they all just point upwards that would be a nice touch if they pointed the direction they were about to move there's really no reason not to render them that way unless i suppose it's deciding where to move them the second they become free to move but then you mean you can just change that behavior it doesn't have to work that way yeah it'd be nice if they turned whichever way they're gonna go hi matt long time viewer what are some games you'd say personally define the 8th gen for you or what 8th gen games will you be replaying for years to come what is the 8th gen oh somebody's already said 8th gen is ps4 xbox and i presume wii u then as well right the switch the switch is kind of on a different it's kind of in between the switch because the switch is four years ago already so you can't put it in the same category with the the ps5 can you i don't know uh i don't know i don't know man i don't remember i don't remember when i don't remember all the games uh i'm obviously going to be playing the wonderful one-on-one for a very long time and never shutting the up about it uh i don't know games like the last guardian i i don't i don't think i've done a full playthrough of the last guardian since i finished it part the reason for that is because i want them to remove the button prompts that always come up and i feel like the minute i go to play it they'll put out a patch that removes them so i haven't replayed it but i definitely will replay that uh i'm glad to have it in my library you know what i mean i don't know i'll probably go through bloodborne again sometimes yeah it's such a mess like i really like mario 3d world for example isn't it is that a switch game now right is it a wii u game uh i'll definitely play that again you know maybe soon on the switch even i don't know there's probably important ones i'm forgetting they're probably mostly smaller downloady type things though rather than big releases i can't think of many big releases that i'm that happy about the train has been very kind very kind indeed although i haven't i haven't actually gotten kos from it i lost it there didn't i okay yeah i was thinking i lost track of my pill timer but it was just that one of them was underneath the train and i forgot it was there i was wondering why i was running out sooner than i expected great i nearly didn't get that in time because i got slowed down by the jammers like so greedy greed did me in oh yeah probably 2017 yeah yeah yeah i think people will be replaying that one for a long time yeah i'll replay breath of the wild obviously uh but again i don't know whether to count that as part of the seventh generation who gives a whatever yeah it's a great game i'm gonna replay it it was kind of it wasn't really i don't know if it's greed exactly because it's kind of safety of a different sort because eating those pellets doesn't really get me anything in the interim except the knowledge that i have to eat fewer pellets down the line to spawn the fruit right that's what it was all about so i was basically just trying to ensure that the next fruit would come without much hassle and uh too many jammers too many jammers showed up that's all that's what happened foreign i like the name jammer for them good name when when they first said it in the video i was like what are you talking about jammer why would you say jammer but you know the alternative is garbage you don't want to say garbage pacman right pacman's not garbage oh i got the fruit i've just needlessly gone up a whole level that's really bad that was a really bad one probably most people are not using the strategy that i'm using so it might just put me level with them but that's a big advantage lost right there oh oh hopefully we have enough to get a fruit we do i saw it underneath the train there briefly all right round nine this might be the highest round i've actually gone to that this is the point this is the point where hitting the train the delay from hitting the train is really nice that is a really significant amount of time to not have to worry about anything it's a shame enough and number four too many times i want to get top three at least you know it's a frustrating place to be uh [Music] i'm gonna ignore this here i've saved a little bit of time there by doing that i should have i waited there too long that was really bad actually that was really really bad i waited there way too long for that when i should have been eating dots there's no point just sitting there when you can clear out some dots and ensure you're gonna get the fruit i'm not even i wanted the speed boost so i wanted i wanted to make sure i cleared them all out who is it it's not clyde annoying that they're running away from me it's inky i think it's gotta be inky this blinky would have come to me before now so he's going to prefer the bottom left corner presumably anyway well they kind of lose their behavior when they're vulnerable don't they i'm not i'm actually not entirely sure what happens to their behavior when they're vulnerable i forget i hope to spawn the fruit it has just barely got away with that oh i nearly went for the fruit again by default circle around and get it this way should really think of something to talk about well before i go into a round or something so so oh just barely oh i was only barely off on that [Music] rank the ghosts oh second there's mike say hi mike i was second i didn't realize that i thought i was gonna be fifth or something rank the ghosts uh clyde is number one clyde is number one how's your knee hungo going not no no progress since last time i do the yankee and that's it i only do a few extra cards a day it's uh yeah i've never actually seriously studied it [Music] i would like to you know if i had a whole bunch of free time i would like to just set aside a couple of months and go right this is this is the japanese monster we finally you know level up on this but uh yeah i just don't have the time yeah just don't have the time i feel like i have to be doing something else all the time something something genuinely productive i don't know if it's genuinely productive it's a shame i let it drop there but i think i don't think i had a big comb on it i'm kind of zoning out now when i'm playing it which is nice i just the only thing is i have to consciously remind myself to swap over to change gears from speed to train at a certain point thoughts on luigi's mansion 3 uh i didn't finish it i gotta say okay i'll tell you what i think what i thought of it um you know i was talking earlier it's a good stream to ask this question on because i was talking earlier about uh about breath of the wild and how i liked that uh it's it's got a lack of it's driven by intrinsic motivation rather than extrinsic motivation for the most part and i think they did a good job of that and that it was a it was a nice thing for them to do and all that good stuff right uh the thing that i didn't like about luigi's mansion three is that i feel like i could probably just enjoy it intrinsically in many ways but then the game gives you the whole game you just vacuum up currency but then the currency doesn't actually do anything you know it's just this really weird mixture of i would enjoy the game more if the currency did something or if it didn't have currency but you can't make me vacuum up a load of and not do anything with it you know what i mean it's just in this really bad place um so yeah that's what i didn't enjoy about it it just doesn't make any sense to me why why put so much because it's it's fun to that's the thing the the money sort of spins out right all these dollar bills come flying out of things and they have this nice sort of physics on them where they twirl about in the air and you vacuum them up and that's really satisfying you know of course every it's like it's kind of like uh like that desire to be in a a tube with money flowing through the air right on a game show or something right it like taps into that sort of feeling there's all the in the air and you can just grab it right if you if you want uh that's cool but but then you don't do anything with the money so like what's the point you know good old clyde clyde's my friend clyde doesn't really want to hurt me he doesn't really just handing out victories here we are that's all we're doing i'm a mandible yeah the crystal maze that's what i was thinking of yeah crystal maze dome man i always wanted to be in that who didn't want to be in that thing at the end when you saw it you know all the all these tinfoil things flying around and you're just snatching them out of the air it looks so much fun it must have been really hard to tell the different colors apart though because every team picked up a load of what was it was silver and gold and if you put if you picked up silver ones they counted against you if you picked up gold ones they were for you [Music] and every team had a shitload of silver at the end and they all walked away with barely anything it must have been really hard to tell the difference between them when you're actually in that tube you know foreign hmm imagine being the second person to die imagine how embarrassing that must be jesus christ such an embarrassment you know i can't even imagine that i'm too much of a too much of a pro gamer to fall for such a trap you know i i never did uh i never did die did the first goomba i played mario 35 a little bit more off stream i didn't play it that much more than what i streamed honestly but uh i think it's kind of a vicious cycle where knowing that the game was gonna go away made me want to not get attached to it you know which is kind of horrible because maybe if more people played it then it wouldn't have gone away although i really i don't think nintendo was going to listen to anybody on that for whatever reason but uh i never died to the first goomba did i unless it happened on stream and you're all gonna call and give me a timestamp i as far as i remember i never died to the first combat goomba is a stone cold killer though okay he will definitely get me see that we circled around the top to get some extra dots that's the way we do it likewise there circle around make sure we get our fruit what is that a grapefruit oh holy how did i not get up with that what the something interferes with the power pill it's lasting much longer now all of a sudden and i don't understand why i don't get it if i could keep it at this level all the time if i knew what was influencing it i would make this a high priority because it has a big effect i need to figure this out man this is bugging me now it's low again it's shortest on round nine and resets on round ten huh i am a hacker i'm a hacker man i am i am a known hackerman i didn't watch the the uh snyder cut now red pacman out of nowhere i might have an easier time responding to it if i had the audio i need to i need to sort my audio out i need to sort my stream setup out because i'm a pac-man 99 streamer now i don't i haven't i've talked about it before i haven't seen the marvel films can you hear my stomach grumbling it's being pretty loud i think i should probably stop soon i want to keep playing but my stomach is telling me otherwise i'm not eating enough fruit yeah i made a mistake here i didn't prioritize speed i'm gonna go for it now because it'll be too late later well it was risky but it seems to be okay and i actually kind of saved some time there as well not using power pills for a minute so that's okay oh i didn't see pinky there all right i'll do one more game for now then i'll stop i'll stream this again sometime soon though i'm enjoying it a lot this is the last game [Music] three thoughts on alien soldier 99 i wish it existed i have a feeling i'd be pretty good at it so uh i always keep forgetting to put it over to train i need like a i need a timer or something i need a stopwatch that just beeps 60 seconds into the round did i miss it ah that's the jammer's fault i don't know i i can't tell if that's a good thing or a bad thing maybe it is a good thing that the the train kind of moves like that so that you can't just sit there and eat it like that maybe that's why they did it that way i don't think it's like that in the championship editions is it so if what oh my god that is bad that is that's the worst spawn i've had by far ah sake all right we gotta do one more we gotta do one more last one for real this time no matter what it turns out if i come in 50th it's over okay last one for real i'm not even talking now i'm just i'm in the zone and i just love your recommendations do you have any on the spot uh i gave some out on twitter recently i mentioned six probably someone in the chat can listen for you i think it was pray 2017. baba is you um i don't know maybe i put alien soldier in there again did i i don't think i did uh invisible ink i cannot remember the other three but they're good just because i don't remember them doesn't mean they're good now this is genuinely the last one however it turns out taking a pretty bad route there that seemed quite slow slow again here this is not good okay we got our speed up onto the train i actually could have kept back on i was that was defeatist attitude okay that's my own attitude there was the only reason that i lost that because i thought i had lost it that's why i lost it i thought the jammers slowed me down too much being my own worst enemy there that was not good i think his third pill i can't remember if there's a pill in the bottom left or not there's not that's okay circle around here nope not worth it not worth it like i think i lost it i think i saw a frame of them okay no i didn't [Music] ugh one one more one one more okay okay for real totally final the end last one we're done this is it okay this is it it's been three hours already so i need to go take a break and relax and get off the stream for a while and then i'll stream it again very soon because i'm enjoying it okay this is definitely the last one and i mean it oh why did i do that oh no no i've already already really diminished my chances again number one stop eating the fruit man don't eat the fruit fruit kills you in pac-man fruit kills you just gonna have to ignore the train for a little while if it crosses my path that's nice oh i got a free speed up anyway okay well that's something i couldn't see myself am i crazy or i kind of got obscured by all the garbage coming out of me i lost track of myself right this is really the last one i got into the top half we're really done after this okay i'm gonna go i as well you know another reason why i need a better setup for this is because it's not very comfortable i'm hunched forward this whole time that's one reason why i need to go i need to not be hunched for such a long period of time like this i need to be able to sit back in my chair i don't even see i'm going to all this effort to preserve i'm going to all this effort to preserve the combo and i don't even know if it's worth it it feels like it should be but i just don't know so oh hey yeah all right well that's the last one [Laughter] definitely [Laughter] that was a good match it was a good match okay no no no no no no you're not gonna trick me double or nothing off that was a good round to end it on that was a nice bit where i got i dodged through and i got i feel like i'm gonna watch that bit back i think i feel like maybe the jammer saved my he's saved my ass there because i was about to run into inky i think he actually saved me i'm not sure but uh it was good it was good regardless no no i'm gonna go i'm gonna go but i'll definitely stream this again soon streaming again soon it was a good narrative yeah that's a that's a nice way of putting it uh yeah all right everyone uh thanks for tuning in i hope you enjoyed watching me play pac-man because i'm gonna do it again going over replays damn you're taking seri taking the series yeah well i do want to know what spawns the red jammers that's a very important thing and it's still not clear to me at all i've played what three and a half hours on stream i must have played about an hour maybe an hour and a half yesterday so i've played about five hours and i still have no idea if i'm even spawning red jammers for other people i feel like i must be at this point but maybe you have to select stronger but stronger really seems to with the power pill it really seems to make it last a lot less so i think you'll buy any of the content it offers probably not maybe maybe it's comfy stream i'm sorry about some of the stretches of silence in there i you you need to ask better questions though that's the problem you need better questions chad i'll try and i'll try and get a topic going before i stream around and uh yeah well i'm glad it was comfy at least and uh thanks for tuning in everybody i really like this this is my favorite of the the three that's come out so far by the way um and you know i got a great win streak in mario 35 right so it's not about how well i'm doing or anything like that because i did better in mario 35 i like this one more this is this is good i really like this so uh i'm gonna be playing some more i'll stream it again soon okay all right i'm gonna go goodbye everybody bye bye bye bye
