Malukett: Will Wheaton's Geek and Sundry Lawsuit & Death Stranding

I'm going to say something that's going to shock you and every other person who has ever travel with me welcome to multiple nerdgasm with your hosts Matt Luke and Dan multiple nerdgasm your guide to All Things nerdy go on I don't fly out for 3 days for my trip yes I already packed really yep are you like packed like a normal human or are you luk packed I'm I'm I'm luk packed but I'm Luke packed early all right well I guess the first time you pack I guess has to be sort of more organized than than the later packs that I've seen you do cuz yeah for for

listeners the way Luke packs or the way that I've seen Luke pack is that we we' be traveling and we'll get to a hotel and then he'll just kind of like tip his suitcase out uh on the bed yeah it just sort of explode yeah and then he just sleeps amongst that uh as you as you spend time in a in a location and then when we're ready to go somewhere else uh he just kind of uses his arm to scrape all of the belongings back into the suitcase uh and then sits on it to force it shut always get all my stuff packed never left anything behind yeah you I mean the suitcase is big enough that that's feasible generally speak uh I did see a photo of your suitcase you have a uh an R2-D2 suitcase I do it's very easy to spot at airports yeah yep unless there's another child on the plane which

they might also have one got my Donald Duck hat in there I saw that I saw that as for Disney I guess you have a Hawaiian shirt from what I saw in the photograph I do mhm that's cool I now want dress nice one day dress nice no like if we want to go to a fancy restaurant you can wear your Hawaii exctly I I've decided I'm going to go to we should go to a fancy restaurant in Paris and I'm wearing in a Hawaiian shirt yeah okay good um I'm excited uh you guys leave on uh you guys leave on Wednesday right yes so we probably won't hear you on the show next week listeners probably won't hear your voice no there's a good ch she will I don't know what the time difference is

but I'm taking my microphone I'm taking a laptop okay all right cool I'm going to try to record what's the time in Amsterdam now I don't know I think it's uh I think it's weed o00 I was making I I was going to make jokes about how like you guys are going to be smoking a ton of weed and then I realized it's legal most places in this country too at the moment so it's not even it's not I probably will smoke while I'm there just cuz I miss smoking oh okay I mean I zero interest in smoking weed ever I've got no interest in smoking weed I just miss smoking so you'll smoke weed to get to perform the action of smoking yeah cuz that it's not addictive yeah whereas if I have to go and like smoke a few packets of cigarettes I would get addicted overnight [ __ ] hell you're

Keen oh if I'm doing it I'm doing it yeah that's your motto so I figure if I go and I smoke weed I'll just get that I'll get to enjoy smoking again for a bit before I have to stop again yeah but I just had a look in Amsterdam at the moment it is just after 1:00 in the afternoon oh all right interesting so it's very good chance you will hear me next week or I'll be tired or I'll be on a tour of a gin Factory oh you'll just be really stoned or or drunk cuz I have not drunk in weeks well don't don't just start up again oh no I I got permission from the doctor or she just agreed to it that I'm drinking while I'm on holidays well what does that mean though I'm going to enjoy a couple of drinks while I'm on holidays oh see

that's fine see that's different to the the implication that you you you made there which was that you just going to write yourself off in 3 weeks no I'm not going to write myself off for three weeks all right oh well very exciting uh there will be a I assume there'll be at least a week or two to though that we don't do a show unfortunately listeners because I think it's going to be difficult to coordinate I think that much I think yeah in like yeah I think next week will be fine cuz you and Dan can at least record y oh Dan's not here by the way oh yeah yeah good point yeah yep um so next week should be fine the week after I think's the tricky one yes and then the week after and then uh even maybe the week after I forget how long

I'm gone for but when do you get you guys get back probably before I'm back or something so you guys can cover I don't know when do you get back uh I will be back I will not be back until this is I don't know how interesting this is for the listeners but that's fine I can edit this down into something that's a little more succinct um I will be back on the show on the 15th of September ah cuz yeah I fly back in that week as well right oh look we'll figure something out yeah even if that means that something might just be we don't do an episode but we'll figure something out yeah that something might be nothing right you'll find out in a couple of weeks what happens at the same time we do so um I'm

still enjoying Far Cry 5 a lot uh and I I guess I didn't expect to so this is a pleasant surprise but uh makes me wonder if maybe there are some other games that I should try that I just didn't I dismissed out of hand I just didn't think I would like it but I I do I do like it I've already talked about it a fair bit so luk are there games that you think I should give a shot that I perhaps haven't H um you've played all the Gears of War Games haven't you but you've only really played the single player they get a bit long at some points I've played I finished the first one I played I've played a little bit I play fair bit of the second one I think I would say uh and I played a little bit of the third

one uh they're all right yeah but yeah they can get a bit long the fifth one's coming out with they're very syy like the thing I like about Far Cry is that I can do different stuff like it's sort of the same but not really I'm doing different things and you're also playing Watch Dogs 2 yeah I can't really think of anything at the moment that sort of you probably wouldn't have played you played Borderlands I guess I've just played everything yep you played all the games in the world yeah I'm no I'm sure there is something out there but look you're enjoying Far Cry you finish that experience before looking for the next one oh all right fine I mean I mean I guess I guess that does sound sensible now that you put it that way because did

you finish Watch Dogs no no didn't no no no no you played the yeah uh yeah I did actually uh well I played uh I finished the first one I played a bunch of the second one uh I didn't finish that got distracted by something else uh and I haven't played the third one but I have it because it's on Game Pass so I could play it so yeah may actually you know what maybe I should finish two and try three yeah I probably have a few games I should I should play oh jeez yeah yeah you probably got a pile of games that you have actually even paid money for that are sitting there that you haven't played I certainly do and I just remember that you already you already

recommended uh was it hellblade uh yes so probably probably don't need recommendations however podcast at multiple nasm.com if there's something you think I should check out you going to bring your switch with you I am going to bring my switch ah all right what uh what games do you have on it now you only had Zelda right for a long time you just going to play Zelda and Mario Party oh Mario party's good on the switch Yeah it's fun I got a ton of games on there yeah no I've got yeah just those two I do have a couple other games that I've purchased and then never played mhm mhm I've got Minecraft on there oh really I have it on my iPad just for the achievements of course oh speaking of uh switch achievements uh there is some

achievement tangential news uh there some Microsoft switch news can you fill me in on this yes okay so Microsoft have just sort of put in a patent and it's I don't know it sort of looks like they're trying to make their own switch Okay so it's it's a paint for a controller which okay sort of one side in each hands and it can connect to a screen right like physically connect to a screen like physically it's and those controllers have been around for a while you've got them for like um handh uh mobiles and right even iPad there are some but yeah Microsoft has sort of put their own version in and I think this is leading towards their project xcloud so their streaming service oh you've got a controller that you can

just take with you plug it onto any screen and there you go streaming away wherever you are slap it on the side of of a giant TV yeah so it could be interesting but I don't know cuz I I I like the idea of just being able to play Xbox wherever I am yes of course you do but doesn't really work in Australia yet no not without internet I'm not convinced it would work here either I uh we talked about how i' been trying out that uh GeForce now and I mean it was it was fine but it was not it was not perfect by any means I'd like the idea if maybe you could sort of take this and maybe just download some games to it but then it's you're not if you're downloading the games it doesn't really

have the power yeah it literally has to be an Xbox in which case yeah Xbox is quite bulky so yeah I don't know I like I like the idea of it I would I would probably buy one if it came out but I I'd only really be able to use it at home I mean you could say that about anything Microsoft makes you would prob bu I've done the whole streaming I can stream like um the Xbox on the computer and things like that that that works fine when I'm at home but that's cuz I'm all running on my own network MH mhm but this I'd like to sort of take to work with me mhm yes but then I can't really connect to the Wi-Fi at work are you doing a stream with Ninja I saw he's doing streams with people I might yeah all right I don't no I don't think so I might I'm going to get into streaming in

2021 when it's the fed's over oh yeah that makes sense yeah when no one else is interested in watching streams that's when that's when you'll do it that's when I'm coming in and striking yeah so those he's sort of come out and said that he he hasn't moved for the money which I don't I call [ __ ] on that well that's the thing he hasn't said what he's moved for he said oh what was the quote I'm just trying to find it um bear with me a second I can't give you guys specifics but trust me money was not the incentive that I can tell you well see that makes it sound like there was something he was unhappy with at twitch or something that he was particularly happy with at at mixer or Microsoft yeah I think there's maybe a

project coming up but so vague but to me it's money like all he does is play games I me money was certainly nice he'd be fool not to admit that although he does already have a lot of money doesn't he so I don't oh he's like he was the biggest didn't he get paid a million I mean not a million dollars is not a lot of money these days but yeah but he did get paid a million dollar for Apex Legends or something didn't he yeah just just to play it so just to play and then he was also at some other event where they paid him to go like yeah it's that's money but yeah well he doesn't need money I well it seems to me that he doesn't but yeah yeah I I think there's money behind it oh um and it's something that's sort of weird um you know the

Overly Attached Girlfriend yes yeah you know she just quit I I saw that she had and I know that she posted some sort of emotional video about it because she has like uh say depression issues or something that I think what a lot of it is is cuz being in this industry it's not really you're not guaranteed a paycheck every week no no and that's why she should of bowed out like she can't keep up with this you got to keep producing content to make your money yeah that's why she's sort of stepping back I've I've there's a few creators that I've followed over the years there's a guy called Andrew Hong who does like music stuff on YouTube uh and his Channel's great he does like really cool stuff and there was a point where he put out a video that said he has to dial it back and

hopefully the point of the video was that he can't continue to produce content at the rate that he was cuz he was just going to burn out um and so he was going to have to slow it down and try something different and uh and hopefully that won't just mean the death of his channel because yeah it's so competitive but but you just I don't know and that's why I don't feel like someone like ninja sort of makes it to that level and sort of just starts taking that I don't blame them yeah yeah yeah like yeah like you you're only going to be in this Limelight for so long and if people just lose interest in you and move on to the next shiny thing on the internet mhm you're sort of left with nothing so you just got to listen to Cypress Hill man save your money save your

money well I think good thing about yeah well if if he's smart you buy a house streaming I don't think actually costs a lot of money once you get set up no I can't imagine it does it cost money for the the twitch or mixer not for not for you yeah but then money too 2021 me and ninja you heard it here first folks yep I'll do it for 20 bucks you can afford you well who knows he might have burnt through a bite now do you know I speaking of that uh a show that I've I think I've talked about this before but I I caught a little bit of it yesterday when uh Vanilla Ice his renovation home

renovation show have you seen that I haven't seen it but such a strange concept it's it's the stupidest show cuz he does all this really idiotic stuff like it's yeah just he makes all these awful gross decisions but that's why it's funny is cuz it's he buys like these really really expensive houses makes these [ __ ] ridiculous modifications to them and then apparently sells them for for more money than he bought them but uh it just reminded me of the fact that he he was a [ __ ] really famous wealthy person in what the '90s with Ninja Turtles 2 and all that [ __ ] came out and then y like famously just [ __ ] blew it all and then was stealing lawn furniture like from when that's right in the 2000s we

talked about on this show the fact that he and his friend were stealing lawn furniture and got arrested and uh yeah save your [ __ ] money save your money invest it wisely you can blow it you can blow it on silly stuff also no that's you also you hear it as these people who win like $40 million on the lottery and stuff and they're the ones that end up bankrupt yeah because they don't know how to they don't know what to do with it they've got like this oh you want a house in a car I'll buy you a house in a car like it's just you yeah you got no you lose sort of winning but if you only win like a little bit well you go out you buyself a house you buy yourself a nice car you have a holiday and then you go back to work yeah yeah you're still very well off but yeah just

invest it and then go cuz I mean [ __ ] I would get bored as [ __ ] if I didn't have a job that's what I've always said like if I did win like $40 million I would still go to I'd work parttime yeah but I'd still need something that I'd retire cuz and you would obviously share the money with me and uh I wouldn't have to work anymore so that'd be all right yeah you wouldn't have to work I just still continue to go to work and yeah but no you you need something that you have we share your pay then we that would that would ensure that I wouldn't have the same problems yeah yeah yeah that that sounds great yeah all right so I'll I mean what 50 % of the winnings I I would I would take ah you would I mean I could take well what what what if I just s

what if I just do this I sign everything over to you sure and then you would look after that and just invest that wisely for me yep in in a bunch of weird [ __ ] y things are going to get weird around here yeah no no I I need the leopard it's it's an investment it's an investment it's there to play with Atlas yeah I'm sure Atlas would love them well maybe I'll just spend it all on loot boxes because uh apparently loot boxes are are not gambling they are was surprise mechanics that's what that's what EA said right surprise that's what they're trying to call them now um

surprise and the weird thing is like like there's been like the UK's got in and looked at them and they've come out and gone no they're not gambling yeah it is odd like they are gambling right yeah it's not just me like they are I I get that it's like it's a little different cuz you're not winning money but you still have to spend money I think the reason why people aren't are sort of not being classified as gambling is you're not winning when you're winning something you're not winning something that has a physical value so you're winning just yeah you well we've had this conversation with regards to the the horse armor remember when the horse armor came out and we were like I purchased it of course you did but we we

talked about like you're buying nothing like yeah and honestly for me it was nothing I saw mying these days my horse died and then I never played the game again so yeah but yeah so the industry the entertainment software associ ation has announced that they've got some new policies coming in that people are going to have to abide by uhuh so coming in next year they're going to like all the big Publishers are going to come out and have the what's the word I'm looking for odds oh okay the odds of winning right so you're you'll know how likely it is that you're going to G anything good yeah the the 0.1% of getting the thing you want [ __ ] hell yeah

so but Australia still that we're still in the midst of looking into it so they're going to announce in about a month's time I think the report comes out whether what they're going to do with it and I hope they come out and say yeah I got no problem with people going out and bl buying cosmetic stuff but the thing I don't like about it is I mean this is these are products generally speaking they aimed at kids and yes it's just I don't know just this behavior of spending a [ __ ] ton of money on on nothing really like I don't know like I said before on the show like a friend of my work his son every time there's a new season on uh fortnite he comes up and goes to his head and goes I need money cuz I need to buy stuff yeah I mean look

I'm no I'm not an expert but I just it does worry me and I can't see how people could be so confident that it's not something to be concerned about but then that's cuz they're [ __ ] making a [ __ ] ton of money money off it so yes well it's like 30% of EA's profit is loot boxes or something I love how whenever there's an article about this stuff like this one uh it's always [ __ ] Star Wars Battlefront 2 that's in the screenshots because well I think that's what that's the one that I think upset the most people because it didn't just bring in loot boxes and his pretty stuff it brought him pay to win yeah I know and you had to get loot boxes right to progress in the game yeah whereas I know that the division has them now but you don't have to do that you can just

ignore it I didn't even know it was there for a long time but yeah with this it was yeah if you wanted you you could in the multiplayer you could level up your character very quickly if you want to spend a lot more money that's so [ __ ] annoying I think you could do that in the first one if you wanted to Battlefront no no the first Battlefront didn't even have different skins or anything okay I'm remembering that wrong no but you had to you had to unlock all the guns and stuff right and then I think you pay to do that didn't you did you I thought I thought you had to unlock them by basically using them yeah well see that makes One S that's how a [ __ ] game works yeah this was no you had if you unlocked and you got the

special card then you can apply it to here and what what happened to me a lot in Battlefront 2 is every time I unlock something I'd unlock stuff I didn't want to use well that's a surprise the stuff I actually wanted no well that's how gambling Works isn't it I gave them no money good except what I paid for the game I didn't play to cuz didn't look like I car something I would care about I [ __ ] love Star Wars but uh I was so disappointed in the story oh that's right sing I [ __ ] forgot about that yeah the single player was there and it actually looked really interesting and then they had to have princess leer and Lando in there and I'm sort of like they don't have to be there they work in every battle oh I I learned a on a this is our

weekly uh Matt's reading a book update um yep and you may know this already but do you know why uh Han Solo's frozen in carbonite in Empire Strikes Back cuz Han Solo sorry H solo Harrison Ford was has been begging for [ __ ] Han Solo to die since New Hope and they when they were writing the script and getting ready for The Empire Strikes Back he was like I don't know maybe I'll do it but I probably won't do another one and so they were like all right well we need to set it up so that if he changes his mind at some point he can just be shuttled off out of the story back out and I remember that in um even during with return Jedi he was basically going I want to die and it'll be me sacrificing

myself so everyone else can go yeah he's been begging to [ __ ] kill that character it's like since the first movie like he was like well he finally got his wish I know like he was they want he wanted to die at the end of the [ __ ] first one which is that's sort of weird though that he want that because that was like his second act second gig yeah he's just [ __ ] obsessed with the idea of his character being [ __ ] killed that's why I still think he's going to go back and remake everything he's ever done he's going to do a sequel to everything and he's going to die in them all and yet Jon is next that's his thing yeah well they're making another one right yeah it's better than the last one well I don't think mut's coming back no I

don't think so yeah but I don't I don't know I don't know if they are going to make it do you know actually one one last thing that I learned from the book just an interesting quote was that um you know they did the original trilogy and then George was like no that's it for now and then he apparently it was a conversation he had with somebody in during the you know the in between period and he said that one day the children who saw the first movie in theaters will have children and that will be the time to bring back Star Wars um so he had always planned to wait like you know 30 years that's what he did yeah like he said he told people back then they were like we you should make more and he's like no it's not not the time not yet

mhm so I still kind of wish he didn't yeah yeah yeah Star Wars sorry Craig Right Moving On Moving on uh there was a an event this this past week uh Evo 2019 uh the Tekken tournament oh is that what it is that makes sense based on the article it doesn't say that's what it is in the article I don't think it just I just knew that it was some Tekken related thing that this happened but they took uh clips of solid snake from one of those games Metal Gear games uh and they made like a little I guess funny video of uh of you know Solid

Snake talking to snake and everyone lost their mind thinking new character yeah they're thinking snake Snak going to join the game no they just uh they just made that without anybody's permission and said sorry it was a joke and I'm sort of what was the joke yeah it's such a weird thing to do yeah but yeah David hater the I think it's David um the voice actor yeah he was not happy no because they [ __ ] used his work for profit yeah without [ __ ] consulting or paying him or you know and he's contractually obliged to that's why a lot of uh voice actors if you uh people get upset cuz they're like oh could you you know record me a voicemail message or something as a character they don't always own the

rights to those characters so don't get upset with them if they won't they want to do it like and and also they don't know what you're going to do with it so but also with this I don't think they could actually claim this as parody or anything like that no it's just kind of weird yeah yeah like I don't what what was that end game here yeah it's confusing for the audience and then it didn't it just didn't really seem to have a point I guess maybe somebody was just a a fan of uh of somebody who works for the company I guess was a fan of metal gear and oh cuz the other thing is too apparently the clip that they used was something that David hater had recorded for a fan and so um like it wasn't even from the

official game it's just weird so I don't know why you would do this it's just a strange thing to do I guess lesson learned yeah like yeah it's just yeah I just find it weird like they came out and said sorry it's a joke but I mean look we've you just got you got everyone excited and then went the joke is ha we're not doing that like that time Dan interviewed Peter Dinklage on this show and everyone got really excited uh but he didn't actually interview Peter Dinklage no sorry to to break the news to everybody that was just a joke too he doesn't really have attack dogs oh I mean maybe he does yeah we don't know that yeah he's you know good point Peter write in and let us know yeah if you're Peter Dinklage podcast at

multiple nerd gm.com MGM on Twitter multiple n gasm on Facebook multiple n GM on Instagram uh if you love the show uh and you I mean Peter Dinklage can afford to to back us on patreon so head to patreon don't ask for a lot patreon.com mpasm for $1 a month you can support this show and and we would love you to do that uh for five bucks a month you can get the show a little bit early uh and then you get some little bonus stuff from time to time and then for 10 bucks a month you can get the Afterparty which is where we keep talking so what what's happening with well not so much Star Trek but will weaton news yes will weaton uh who you listeners May either know I think most likely know him from Star Trek as he was

Wesley Crusher on Star Trek and then he was also the host of tabletop for Geek andry and our listeners are probably aware of that uh and then he also did a a series on there called uh Titan's grave the ashes of vulcana which I guess uh is a role playing or or game of some sort right is that what that was based on yeah I sort of I the only thing I really watched on geek and sunry was sort of the tabletop series there's not much else on there that I actually got into okay but I do know that they have some D and D stuff on there yeah well critical role used to be on there but they uh they they left they're on the they're doing their own thing now uh cuz they realized they could make infinite money uh

basically yes they [ __ ] killing it and good on them cuz the show's great but [ __ ] know that I didn't did not expect D and D to to I didn't expect this to happened you know what I mean like when I was playing Dungeons and Dragons years ago that's that's [ __ ] interesting um so Titan's grave will weaton was hosting it and he had a deal apparently that there's actually some interesting details regarding how much he was getting paid uh in here just cuz I we didn't have this information before but he was going to be paid uh $50,000 and 50% of the net profit from the series that was the deal but also they would contain they would retain distribution and promotion rights but uh the contract apparently says they had to

consult meaningfully with him before making agreements and things oh so not the yeah we sent you an email but just as sort of an FYI we're doing this it's an actual we're thinking of doing this what do you think yeah what's what's your opinion uh yeah so now he's suing them because they have made they've licensed it out to uh Hulu and a bunch of other places um without even telling him which I guess is not that doesn't count as Consulting meaningfully um and not only that he's uh he's not getting any money from that uh allegedly so I don't know net profit well I mean that seems like he should be getting all well at least some of that money a lot of money like cuz the 50,000 for he was hired to create WR executive

produc and host it so 50,000 is not a lot to do all of that no that's and I was like how long did this run for that's why I thought this was interesting because I mean like that can't be all he did for the the I don't know you just assume celebrities get paid a lot more than that but uh you know like 50 Grand a year as a celebrity seems low to me it's sort of I mean sort of will weiten is in sort of I think in one of these weird positions where he's not doing yes he was on Big Bang like he's not doing bad he was on Big Bang but he wasn't one of the ones making millions of dollars an episode he was and and he's not just getting paid 50 Grand a year I realize but just just that amount just I was like oh is that all I would have turned my nose up at

that he he's sort of above YouTube celebrity but not quite aist he's sort of in this in between area I think yeah well I think also I I don't know he is above of some YouTube celebrities he's kind of not that relevant anymore like no offense will of you're listening patreon.com gasm you can afford it yeah I'm sure he's going to give us money now give us that 50 Grand will um but yeah he uh people kind of know who he is uh he he might actually be more famous these days for tabletop than for Star Trek even I think he's more he'd be more famous for Big Bang Theory oh you're right actually good point yeah uh so he's he's expecting to get a minimum of $100,000 uh which that's for that much yeah that's also

not that much considering but then again I don't know how much how much shows make well I'm looking at if theyve like license agreements out to three of these broadcasting that to me would be a fair bit you would assume yeah yeah like I don't know that just like 50% of the net profit so the show he made 200 Grand like why the [ __ ] are they I mean not we did it if we did it and we made 200 Grand like that would be [ __ ] amazing but we're not I'm not [ __ ] legendary the the production company that presumably but remember profit this is this is after you've paid things like actors and equipment and stuff that's your profit on top of you're right I'm not a businessman I need you to explain this to me yes

everyone should take my advice what's your advice give me money good advice yeah but yeah no yeah it's what yeah you would assume that normally when you hear of lawsuits they're talking about millions of dollars seems completely ridiculous but this yeah although I mean 100 Grand is nothing to sneeze at like if if I thought somebody owed me 100 Grand on the only way I was going to get it was to sue them I would sue them yes so oh definitely yeah but then again I'm not will weaton millionaire will ween may or may not be a millionaire see Geon sunry has always been this thing that's confused me well see I somebody in the comments said uh on this article pointed out with the

critical role thing that they I can see down in the comments and cuz they left as well and I they saying I wonder if something happened with them too but I don't know if it's that or if it's just that critical role realized we could just cut out the middleman cuz and that's why I context for these shows I guess uh financially is critical role and they make from what I can tell a [ __ ] shitload of money like on that Kickstarter they did for uh for their animated series they made like like 12 million dollar for that and I know that's not profit because you got to pay to make the show but [ __ ] that's a lot of money yes like that's we struggled to make

500 5 million we certainly struggle to make yeah we do struggle to make 5 million Luke patreon.com I guess next time but the one thing that's always sort of I always weird about geek and sunry is like cuz it's got like it was fici day will waai that sort of their project but it never really got like millions of views or anything yeah look I'm looking at their newest videos now and something that's been out for like 4 days is like 13,000 views and it's just yeah it's just weird I mean that's still a lot but it's not yeah it's not ninja numbers or uh no PewDiePie pew Pewdiepie Pewdiepie I've never seen anything of PewDiePie ever I know he just does says his name like that like I

just said it PewDiePie that's all I know about him sometimes he says racist things and everyone gets mad at him and he's like yeah and like hires people to do racist things joke joke oh yeah [ __ ] like we can talk well not you I can so there's some uh exciting potential news here because there's a game that I am [ __ ] baffled by and I really want to play just to see what the hell is going on and so talk me through this so death strange mhm it's um being it's from the guy who did uh he he coima yeah yep so he's the man behind oh what was it Metal Gear yes which that

game got that game's always been weird yeah he makes weird games that's his thing he does so a few years ago when he basically got out and started his own when he got out like he was in prison well no who was he working for he working for he was working he was sort of in prison Konami he was working for right Konami he was working for Konami and they basically locked him away and wouldn't let him go collect Awards and stuff for his last s of year working there I'm not joking they had him locked in a Cupboard it was sort of like they did not end on good terms and so he basically left started his own thing and then sort of was coming out with a PlayStation exclusive Called Death stranding mhm the game art is now finally out and

the PlayStation exclusive is now gone ah interesting and starting yeah people starting to think that maybe it's not an exclusive anymore and now I don't know if this will come out on Xbox it may be that it will come out on PC but there's still hope cuz I would love to play this game I need to see how weird it is cuz no one knows what it's about still yeah and and listeners if you haven't seen any anything about uh Playstation and X oh not Xbox PlayStation PC but we'll wait and see M this might be like sort of very strange for them to take that off the cover though there definitely something coming remember when they accidentally released a [ __ ] Xbox branded video Final Fantasy 7 remake well well the thing

about it is with the in in the past the the game the game cover did have PlayStation exclusive on it but the new version of it has been removed that's yeah odd H well just hoping cuz I really want to check this out and I was thinking I might just have to watch Ninja stream it or somebody I don't think n plays like multiplayer games doesn't he yeah yeah I think I think he plays fortnite mostly I was I was just kid but I'm have to watch it online but uh or if you wait till 2021 you can watch me do it online oh that's a good point when's this come out yeah hopefully hopefully I think it comes out next year yeah I think there's a lot of good games coming out next year

there you go ibe it's mainly cyber punk I guess I should start streaming things I I keep thinking about it and then I don't but then yeah what's the even if I don't if I just stream myself playing I don't even have to and just don't even think about it but why is I don't anyone would want to watch me play a game I don't understand I'm not I'm even good at them was streaming me playing that horse game yeah there was like 12 people watching me play that and I was nearly falling asleep I mean I was one of them but that's cuz it's you it's not like I know you that's different but yeah like I wasn't even fighting that game enjoyable and people watching it was not Luke I can tell you right now it didn't look enjoyable uh I mean that as that aspect made it

slightly enjoyable was that like like why the [ __ ] is Luke playing this game that there was an aspect of that I haven't played it again since I'm not surprised yeah listeners if you would watch us stream games let us know podcast at multiple.com nobody has ever I I don't think I don't think ever written in and said I will absolutely watch you play some [ __ ] game or I will watch you play Fallout uh not Fallout Far Cry 5 in my stupid [ __ ] OCD methodical way like no one wants to watch me do this now when you're playing Far Cry 5 do you play how I play and do everything but the main story no no see I I've like you mentioned I haven't finished Watch Dogs 2 yet right and I actually really liked that game but there is a danger now that

I will never play it again yeah because as much as I like it when I'm playing it I do tend to forget about it yeah so odds are still buy this the next one when it comes out even though you haven't finished the second one yeah potentially but but I might um I might uh have to go back and just play through the main story yeah just power through I went back and I played it cuz it was some DLC I hadn't played so I've done that I enjoyed that yeah right one the things I purchased a DLC AG ago but never got around to playing it the Zodiac Quest is uh is DLC I think and I have that going on in Watch Dogs the Zodiac Killer shows up but it was so

hard going back and playing it after not playing it like in years so I get back in I install DLC and I go I have no idea how to play this game anymore because you sort of learn how to play that game with like your hacking and how things work but yeah going in and I've unlocked everything so I've got all the skills but I had no idea how to use any of them I know it becomes muscle memory after a bit but then maybe believe it man that's why playing old uh you know like Nest games and stuff like that like uh I'm so [ __ ] awful at them but I guess when I was younger I just you had one game so you spent so long playing it that you just got really good at it yep like uh trying to think of an example even like the first Metroid like

I'm [ __ ] terrible at that yeah but yeah back in the day that was that was the one game you had for like 6 months to a year so that's what you played to death that's all for this week thank you for listening and we hope you enjoyed the show if you enjoyed it then please subscribe and iTunes to receive episodes automatically we'll see you next time
