1 00:00:00,300 --> 00:00:03,300 Ten days from today. Welcome to seven days of play 2 00:00:03,300 --> 00:00:04,900 your Weekly. Mobile game review program. 3 00:00:04,900 --> 00:00:06,800 I'm Edwin. And I'm Sam, and for the past 4 00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:11,400 seven days, I have challenged Edwin to play a very complicated 5 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,800 game called drug. Alia lost from Nintendo and we 6 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:19,500 shall find out if it dragged on and I lost my attention. 7 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,800 If I were to explain the regalia lost, I would say three things. 8 00:00:26,300 --> 00:00:31,800 Okay? One Very mobily kind of game to. 9 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,800 It feels like a pay to win, but it's actually, I think they did 10 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:37,700 some good things here. But you know, it's like one of 11 00:00:37,708 --> 00:00:41,600 those games where it's like made to monetize, right? 12 00:00:41,900 --> 00:00:45,400 But I did not experience exactly which is actually what I'll get 13 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,200 to later on as well. I beg your pardon and then 14 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:53,100 thirdly very Japanese RPG ish role-playing game. 15 00:00:53,100 --> 00:00:56,000 Ish, there's dragons. You need to bond with 16 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,100 characters. You need to have relationships. 17 00:00:59,100 --> 00:01:02,500 Boobs everywhere. Oh boy, I was not expecting 18 00:01:02,500 --> 00:01:06,400 that. So this is a sound game law. 19 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:10,600 Also story in dispersed with some games. 20 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,500 This is essentially is kind of a lot like returners. 21 00:01:13,500 --> 00:01:17,000 A hero. Lot of story, smaller games, a 22 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,900 lot more Story Time. Video game War. 23 00:01:19,900 --> 00:01:23,300 Story during the game. I'm seeing a pattern here. 24 00:01:24,900 --> 00:01:27,600 How did this happen for your need for story? 25 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:31,600 So, So, I think so. Okay, in most cases, whenever a 26 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:35,700 company tries to make a game like this, It's either they 27 00:01:35,700 --> 00:01:39,100 didn't index enough in the story, and by getting what they 28 00:01:39,107 --> 00:01:43,100 seem like an RPG style, you know, like any sort of mobile 29 00:01:43,100 --> 00:01:48,000 pay-to-play pay-to-win sort of game, like, Clash of Clans or 30 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,800 whatever. That clashes, you know, any 31 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,400 other any other game where you see a soldier or a warrior 32 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,800 screaming showing their teeny-weeny face exactly where 33 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,100 you have to build, like, a city where you have to, like, just 34 00:02:01,100 --> 00:02:05,800 upgrade Every single of the 500 facets that you have in control 35 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:10,199 of you know in cases like that like I feel the stories always 36 00:02:10,199 --> 00:02:13,400 get lost or the stories or so inconsequential that. 37 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,600 It doesn't really matter what the stories are so they just 38 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:20,400 like put in some random fluff that is completely nonsensical 39 00:02:21,100 --> 00:02:24,600 ranted. The story here is very 40 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,400 nonsensical but the wagons all my friends. 41 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:33,900 There is some sort of cohesion here where I feel They took the 42 00:02:33,900 --> 00:02:37,000 right steps to introduce the character to the world and to 43 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,100 what's happening, right? Because we should say this is an 44 00:02:40,100 --> 00:02:44,200 original concept. This is UI P IP, meaning 45 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,900 intellect restoring. Interesting properties. 46 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,900 What does IP actually stand for? When they say, like, oh, this is 47 00:02:50,900 --> 00:02:54,100 a new movie with a new IP intellectual property. 48 00:02:54,500 --> 00:02:57,000 That's not really a normal thing to say, though, is it well, 49 00:02:57,100 --> 00:03:00,900 movie executives are not normal people, but this is a new idea, 50 00:03:00,900 --> 00:03:02,500 a new story, new characters to do. 51 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,400 Isn't Super Mario running along. It's not Legends of Zelda with 52 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,400 halitosis of the wild, right? It is so brand-new. 53 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,400 This is a completely newly branched story with characters 54 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:18,500 that are kind of built for you to like and enjoy some of us. 55 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,300 Some of us might like it and enjoy it. 56 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:25,700 Some of us may not. So, what did you think of the 57 00:03:25,700 --> 00:03:28,100 story or the game? Ooh, boy. 58 00:03:28,300 --> 00:03:31,600 Well, let's see. As as usual, I sort of glossed 59 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,400 over the story of course. Because, you know, that's, I'm 60 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,000 not here for story. I'm have a games. 61 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,900 Give me the action, give me some action, sweetheart is what I 62 00:03:39,908 --> 00:03:43,200 would say. To a mobile game, very heavy on 63 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,500 the story. Yes, they're in fact, like three 64 00:03:45,500 --> 00:03:47,200 different ways that they tell the story. 65 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:52,000 There is one, the full-on cutscene where it's completely 66 00:03:52,000 --> 00:04:00,000 animated With full voice acting, yo Q There is just to image and 67 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,700 like different Expressions on their faces with the voice 68 00:04:02,700 --> 00:04:05,300 acting. And three. 69 00:04:05,500 --> 00:04:10,200 There is just a text with just the images, so they tell the 70 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,800 story in three different ways. Oh, and if you're, if you're 71 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,899 very lucky, you'll have an animated segments, which is made 72 00:04:16,899 --> 00:04:19,899 by full-on like, cartoon style animations. 73 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,800 Well, there's my favorite. I couldn't wait for those when 74 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,700 they popped up. Now, I will say, the one thing I 75 00:04:24,707 --> 00:04:30,100 did appreciate is if you skip the story segment and I did, it 76 00:04:30,100 --> 00:04:34,200 would give you a little summary sentence of what the story was. 77 00:04:34,500 --> 00:04:37,900 So the impatient people like me. Yeah, we could just skip through 78 00:04:37,900 --> 00:04:42,400 it like oh yeah, blah blah, blah, Dragon blob befriends, the 79 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,100 evil Prince. We've gotta save, I don't know, 80 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:49,100 my assumption, the story is your Valiant Knight, you befriend 81 00:04:49,100 --> 00:04:54,400 dragons and somehow turn into them with some Elemental 82 00:04:54,500 --> 00:04:57,600 physical things. There's like a type of elements 83 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,000 need to collect or something or other. 84 00:04:59,300 --> 00:05:03,200 Well then there's evil people that you just Slaughter. 85 00:05:03,300 --> 00:05:05,300 Okay? So Kind of yeah. 86 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,400 So where I'm at your set off on this mission to collect these 87 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,400 shards right? Charles Schulz power Crystal. 88 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,500 Oh yeah, essentially crystals, huh? 89 00:05:13,500 --> 00:05:14,900 Of course, it was going on the crystals. 90 00:05:14,900 --> 00:05:15,500 Yep. Yep. 91 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,800 And these crystals have a special bond with Dragons, 92 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,100 right? Fuckin crystals, right? 93 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:25,100 And in order for you, get the crystals, they're crucial 94 00:05:25,100 --> 00:05:27,700 because people can use them for evil, right? 95 00:05:27,700 --> 00:05:30,800 So if they got into the wrong hands, they'd be able to use it 96 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,800 for evil, which means that it's the end of the known world. 97 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,100 As you go and collect the crystals before you actually get 98 00:05:37,100 --> 00:05:40,400 the crystal, you have to make a bond with a dragon because the 99 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:45,600 dragon is protecting it, right? So you go into like this test 100 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,900 of, you know, am I worthy to gain this dragons trust? 101 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,800 And so the first section of the game is essential date with 102 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,500 them. You, you know, you take them out 103 00:05:54,500 --> 00:05:59,300 for dinner, buy them some appetizers, you know, maybe get 104 00:05:59,300 --> 00:06:02,900 for a 2420 at Applebee's on of the flame grilled steak. 105 00:06:02,900 --> 00:06:03,600 Oh nope. Sorry. 106 00:06:04,300 --> 00:06:06,800 Wrong choice. Dragon is no longer your friend. 107 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:13,800 Oh damn it, you've got the pork so you test your might and test 108 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:18,400 your might all right doesn't Mortal Kombat reference us and 109 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,900 the dragon approves. He's like oh yes you remind me 110 00:06:22,100 --> 00:06:25,200 of your ancestor who first made The Pact with the dragons? 111 00:06:25,300 --> 00:06:28,700 I like to think of him sitting at a speed-dating table with all 112 00:06:28,700 --> 00:06:32,300 these wannabe Warriors who me uh look at my crystals. 113 00:06:32,500 --> 00:06:37,500 So as your crystals You're about to get this Shard of power, not 114 00:06:37,500 --> 00:06:41,800 shark of power, shard of power. I can be unfortunate an evil 115 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:49,600 version of your father, the king appears and essentially says No, 116 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,100 that's mine. Hands off my shot, right? 117 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,200 Don't touch my shot. Don't touch me shod. 118 00:06:57,500 --> 00:06:59,000 And you're like, who is this person? 119 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,300 You're my dad but you're not my dad. 120 00:07:01,300 --> 00:07:03,200 Oh no, the whole ganga. Yeah. 121 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,700 Oh and so there is this thing going on where there's like this 122 00:07:05,700 --> 00:07:09,500 alternate universe. So as we unfold, there's quite a 123 00:07:09,508 --> 00:07:13,000 bit of story there which is actually quite intriguing but 124 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,700 yeah, which will be lost if you're an impatient Imelda. 125 00:07:16,700 --> 00:07:18,100 Like I am. Yes. 126 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,300 Okay, well, she's no story. I kind of try and get ahold of 127 00:07:22,300 --> 00:07:24,600 that story. That seems mildly interesting. 128 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,600 I should say, I'm not a big fantasy person right in general. 129 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,500 Okay dragons, the rest of it. I mean like, yeah, Harry Potter, 130 00:07:30,500 --> 00:07:36,100 sure came of Thrones, yeah. Otherwise, not quite my genre 131 00:07:36,300 --> 00:07:38,900 normally for a game like this, like that kind of story would 132 00:07:38,900 --> 00:07:41,500 kind of just go above my head, or like, I would not have the 133 00:07:41,500 --> 00:07:43,500 patience to actually read through it, you know? 134 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,400 But I do feel like, in this particular game, they made the 135 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,900 writing Redirect. And, like, without that much 136 00:07:50,900 --> 00:07:53,300 fluff words, and that's what I realized. 137 00:07:53,300 --> 00:07:57,100 Like it quite well written. It's quite well written, despite 138 00:07:57,100 --> 00:08:00,200 the subject matter like, it's actually like, to the point. 139 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:05,200 No, silly fluff words that make you, you know, read 20 lines of 140 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,500 stuff for just like, one line of meaning. 141 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,600 And so, I was able to like, just, you know, actually go 142 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,100 along with it because it was, it was, you know, it depicted the 143 00:08:13,100 --> 00:08:16,000 characters really well, gave a little bit inside of to the 144 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,300 personalities and actually kept the story. 145 00:08:18,700 --> 00:08:20,300 Without dragging on. Uh-huh. 146 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:21,800 Uh-huh. Drugging lost. 147 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,700 Did we find out what Drew Galia was and why it was lost no-till 148 00:08:27,700 --> 00:08:29,400 mystery? Oh no there's no. 149 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,200 There's no reason why this is called regalia loss. 150 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,700 As you predicted on last week's episode much like Bravely 151 00:08:35,700 --> 00:08:38,400 Default. There is like, no meaning to 152 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,400 these silly names. I don't even think your Galley 153 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,100 is like a name of something. Yeah, they named like 17. 154 00:08:45,100 --> 00:08:47,200 Other things that are kind of sounds like it sounds like Drew 155 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:51,200 Gooden, but But yeah, nothing. What did you name? 156 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,900 Your main character? Let's see. 157 00:08:53,900 --> 00:08:57,800 I don't even remember, I will be honest, this does not bode well 158 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:01,500 for our 7-Day rating. As I think the default is, you 159 00:09:01,500 --> 00:09:04,800 didn't ya? Oh yeah, the music's. 160 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:09,300 Great music is something. That's again, very Sam. 161 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,400 All right. I don't know how to fuck well. 162 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,800 Maybe this is one segue into slightly. 163 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:21,000 Baffling point is you have no idea what a pain anywhere, the 164 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,500 screen is button vomit. It really is. 165 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,900 Then I could tap, I think times on the screen and I could find 166 00:09:27,900 --> 00:09:29,500 about different buttons to tap each time. 167 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:31,800 Oh mine. I'm dragon's blood. 168 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:37,100 Prince, any name. Because as usual, all the names, 169 00:09:37,100 --> 00:09:41,900 I thought of it would not let me use really Panda queef. 170 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,900 Nope. I want to see their list of 171 00:09:45,900 --> 00:09:52,100 names to Hawaii. Let's go to the 3X3. 172 00:09:52,100 --> 00:09:55,600 Let's do the 3 by 3 is 3 things. Good and three things not so 173 00:09:55,600 --> 00:10:00,300 good Original Ip. I think we need to applaud any 174 00:10:00,300 --> 00:10:02,600 time a movie studio, or game Studio comes out. 175 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:07,200 We like an original idea. I feel the need to applaud them. 176 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,400 It's so easy. Like, so much today is this, 177 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,500 like, oh, we can't build anything without an existing 178 00:10:11,500 --> 00:10:12,900 audience. So we have to recycle these 179 00:10:12,900 --> 00:10:14,600 books Comics. Yep. 180 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:18,000 Anything make that a movie. Make that a game because we've 181 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,400 got these inbuilt audience already. 182 00:10:19,700 --> 00:10:22,100 So, Nintendo's, taking the neck out, with, like, completely new 183 00:10:22,100 --> 00:10:25,300 characters, completely random, but random idea. 184 00:10:25,300 --> 00:10:28,700 Yeah, I mean, also, Very nice that doesn't seem particularly 185 00:10:28,700 --> 00:10:31,800 tailored to a western audience, maybe that is my limited 186 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,400 purview, but anime dragons and stuff. 187 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,900 I'm like, yeah. Is that what is that? 188 00:10:37,900 --> 00:10:40,800 Kind of, what a popular game would look like in America? 189 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,000 I don't know, it's kind of, its kind of bored. 190 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,300 Like I do feel like they are sticking their neck out or 191 00:10:46,300 --> 00:10:47,800 something like this. And you don't normally see 192 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,400 Nintendo during this, where there's so much Japanese 193 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,000 influence with the game, right? And kept it to its Japanese 194 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:56,700 Roots. Like, Mom is Italian plumber. 195 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:01,100 Has exactly like even the music still having the Japanese words 196 00:11:01,100 --> 00:11:04,100 in the music and Japanese singer is singing. 197 00:11:04,100 --> 00:11:08,900 The music that's a big step or a western audience. 198 00:11:08,900 --> 00:11:12,600 And I feel like Nintendo is actually making the right steps 199 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,200 for for this game, in particular, for an audience to 200 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:20,500 really discover what Japanese games are all about only few 201 00:11:20,500 --> 00:11:23,900 other companies do this. Like Atlas is another one where 202 00:11:23,900 --> 00:11:27,900 they kind of persevere with like the Cultures and people really 203 00:11:27,900 --> 00:11:30,900 dig it for that right. They actually love these games 204 00:11:30,900 --> 00:11:32,700 because it is so Japanese Centric. 205 00:11:32,700 --> 00:11:35,600 Yeah. And I feel like Nintendo here is 206 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:40,600 making a pretty good move with keeping things so raw and kind 207 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,400 of untranslated. So yeah, I really loved it. 208 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:47,500 I like the IP. I think the characters while 209 00:11:47,500 --> 00:11:52,700 it's kind of generic for like a anime type jrpg, right? 210 00:11:52,700 --> 00:11:56,300 Like it's pretty well developed. Hmm okay yeah. 211 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:01,500 If you skip over the stories, these are just Bland Heroes 212 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,800 doing things that I didn't really sure what. 213 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,200 And I think I mean, to the point where I am, like, nothing is 214 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,100 really stuck out as. Wow, this is great and 215 00:12:08,100 --> 00:12:11,400 revolutionary. It's all sort of typical, you 216 00:12:11,408 --> 00:12:16,500 know, for the king, I must do this, my mission, my sister is 217 00:12:16,500 --> 00:12:19,100 here to protect me, sort of deal, right? 218 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:26,500 And that was all my good point. So the packaging of the game is, 219 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,900 is Like the production. I mentioned like the music the 220 00:12:30,900 --> 00:12:33,100 way that it feels like a complete package. 221 00:12:33,100 --> 00:12:35,700 You can tell this game existed long before the game was 222 00:12:35,700 --> 00:12:36,800 released. Right. 223 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,200 It's pretty polished. Yeah it's very polished. 224 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,500 We're supposed to take them a year to figure out how to fit 225 00:12:41,700 --> 00:12:43,300 500 buttons on the screen at once. 226 00:12:43,500 --> 00:12:46,300 That's a lot of testing. Yeah you know just a little 227 00:12:46,300 --> 00:12:49,900 things of introducing you to the 28 different buttons that are on 228 00:12:49,900 --> 00:12:53,500 the screen, but also the way like the characters interact 229 00:12:53,500 --> 00:12:55,900 with each other. So I think the whole point of 230 00:12:55,908 --> 00:12:59,800 this game is Is for you to try and collect as much characters 231 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,300 as possible, right. Go to collect them all. 232 00:13:02,300 --> 00:13:04,100 Yeah. Like the monetization part of 233 00:13:04,100 --> 00:13:07,200 this is directly related to the people that you summoned to help 234 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,500 you out, right? And they do this like really 235 00:13:09,500 --> 00:13:12,900 interesting thing of, you know, the main menu of the screen 236 00:13:12,900 --> 00:13:14,700 after you've gone through. Like all the entrance stuff 237 00:13:15,100 --> 00:13:19,900 you're just like sort of walking through the this road, but as 238 00:13:19,900 --> 00:13:23,800 you walk through you, you see the characters that you've 239 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,100 collected so far, like walk beside you, you know, Right? 240 00:13:27,100 --> 00:13:29,200 And they interact with you in ways that are like really cute 241 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,900 like they say like little one-liners that you can actually 242 00:13:31,900 --> 00:13:34,900 hear. And just like that polish 243 00:13:34,900 --> 00:13:38,000 though, the way that that sort of real time and it's done with 244 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,300 a real Graphics is done very, very well. 245 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:47,000 Another good thing for me. You know, I think there's a 246 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:52,800 conscious effort to make this like, casual yet invigorating. 247 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,600 Yeah, there is. There's a term here which I feel 248 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,300 it's like my need for mobile games these days. 249 00:13:58,300 --> 00:14:02,200 It's like I don't want to do much but I want to do something 250 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,900 where it makes me feel like I did something a little bit more 251 00:14:04,900 --> 00:14:06,800 than matching some color blocks. Exactly. 252 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,600 Like I think hold down is a great example, where a part of 253 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,900 your brain can kind of shut off. But the things that you do 254 00:14:13,500 --> 00:14:18,600 allows Or pretty good results and makes you feel like yes I 255 00:14:18,608 --> 00:14:20,900 have accomplished something, right? 256 00:14:20,900 --> 00:14:24,500 And I think the way that the gameplay is actually done allows 257 00:14:24,500 --> 00:14:26,500 for this to happen, where it's like sure you're going through a 258 00:14:26,508 --> 00:14:28,900 store and you're entertained, you can kind of go through it 259 00:14:28,900 --> 00:14:32,100 without thinking a lot, but when the gameplay will actually comes 260 00:14:32,100 --> 00:14:37,200 in, it's it's pretty streamlined to wear like, you don't really 261 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,500 need to be thinking about stuff, but if you don't do it, you'll 262 00:14:40,500 --> 00:14:43,400 actually fail. And I think that's, that's like 263 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,700 a pretty good balance to strike. Like in a mobile game, only have 264 00:14:45,700 --> 00:14:48,500 a rebuttal to that. Yeah but we'll save it for the 265 00:14:48,500 --> 00:14:51,000 batteries. Yeah, my final good point is 266 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:56,100 that this wild the story and all that stuff may seem a little 267 00:14:56,100 --> 00:14:58,900 generic. I felt like they did a pretty 268 00:14:58,900 --> 00:15:03,800 good job and actually coming up with a new and invigorating way 269 00:15:03,900 --> 00:15:07,000 to get you involved. Like I didn't think it was that 270 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,500 silly. That's a that's a quote for you 271 00:15:09,500 --> 00:15:11,900 right there. I didn't know you've been saying 272 00:15:11,900 --> 00:15:15,000 shards of power speed dating with Dragons. 273 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:23,000 I didn't find it quite silly, seven days to play five stars on 274 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,500 Tuesday, bad points onto the bad points, hoo, boy, I mean, to 275 00:15:26,508 --> 00:15:29,800 quote Verbatim, what I wrote is my first bad point baffling 276 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,800 menu, I that rewards you with simplistic. 277 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,900 Tedious gameplay, this is crazy. This is Christian, are do 278 00:15:36,900 --> 00:15:39,900 Ronaldo. Those kickoff Chicken Run level 279 00:15:39,900 --> 00:15:43,200 of Bonkers amount of buttons. I think is even more buttons, to 280 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,300 be honest. Yeah, this is even more buttons 281 00:15:45,300 --> 00:15:49,000 than the slot on Legends before they cleaned up the buttons. 282 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,300 Because it's not only a bazillion buttons. 283 00:15:51,300 --> 00:15:54,800 There's also tabs and they have a bazillion buttons on. 284 00:15:55,300 --> 00:15:57,600 And to be honest, I couldn't even tell you what these buttons 285 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,900 are. I don't even Taps half of these 286 00:15:59,900 --> 00:16:04,800 buttons home upgrade teams Castle, summon more events. 287 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,100 Join a co-op. Jumpstart Endeavors. 288 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,900 Special events. Yeah, I mean, oh my gosh, this 289 00:16:10,900 --> 00:16:13,200 is banana pants. I can't understand. 290 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,300 I even, I would forget how to start the game. 291 00:16:16,700 --> 00:16:20,200 I guess this beige and I'm like, okay, well, I want to play and 292 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:26,200 then it's like the lower third of the screen on the right is as 293 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,800 quests, and that's actually need to play the game. 294 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,800 So now you're going to tap on that and then you add a little 295 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:36,700 map, they have a tap on the chapter 0 and then you get Get 296 00:16:36,700 --> 00:16:41,200 chapter for one of four, he would tap on that and then a 297 00:16:41,208 --> 00:16:44,800 baffling screen comes up where you need to choose the people to 298 00:16:44,900 --> 00:16:46,500 play the thing with you. I guess. 299 00:16:46,500 --> 00:16:47,400 Yeah. That's that. 300 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,300 Which was just like. I like I can click on optimize 301 00:16:51,900 --> 00:16:53,700 which brings up an even more baffling menu screen. 302 00:16:53,700 --> 00:16:54,300 We're okay. Sure. 303 00:16:54,300 --> 00:16:57,800 All optimized and then again you get the tiny big win. 304 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:04,200 Big win Quest. And now oh you might ask about 305 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,300 to play a game. Yes you can play a game. and you 306 00:17:07,300 --> 00:17:12,500 get to play a game, which is Few minutes, it's too many is also 307 00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:16,200 like regardless of the characters I chose. 308 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,800 I mean I've played, so yeah, I'm up to chapter 4, which means I 309 00:17:19,808 --> 00:17:22,900 probably played five or six levels all of them. 310 00:17:22,900 --> 00:17:26,400 I've beaten first time not really knowing what I'm doing. 311 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:31,100 You can use it to just walking walking around and these pop-up 312 00:17:31,100 --> 00:17:32,300 that's happened. You / them. 313 00:17:32,300 --> 00:17:33,900 Yeah. And then you got some buttons 314 00:17:33,900 --> 00:17:36,400 underneath where you can turn into a dragon. 315 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:38,500 Do something involving Overdrive. 316 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,900 That's about it at no time. Did I ever feel that was like, 317 00:17:42,900 --> 00:17:46,100 strategy or I was being like learning how to play it. 318 00:17:46,100 --> 00:17:49,900 Better never stop sneaking as you came to mind as a game. 319 00:17:49,900 --> 00:17:52,000 That does this? Well, yeah, that you're walking 320 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,400 about all this because some tactics and bit of strategy and 321 00:17:55,400 --> 00:18:00,200 actually kind of fun to play. Whereas here it's just very 322 00:18:00,300 --> 00:18:05,700 tedious and simplistic. It's really strange because the 323 00:18:05,700 --> 00:18:10,200 more like I'm at a point now where I can actually set, The 324 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,300 auto mode. Okay. 325 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:16,800 Which oh yeah. So like in the fighting part if 326 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,000 you set auto mode, it will just do it for you. 327 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,500 Don't even actually have to tap. So, it got me thinking, like, 328 00:18:23,500 --> 00:18:27,800 where is the game here right now, you've to Galia lost the 329 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:28,900 game? Yeah. 330 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:33,700 Is and I think this is sort of like goes, you know, like the 331 00:18:33,700 --> 00:18:36,500 bigger question of the game is like is the game actually about 332 00:18:36,500 --> 00:18:39,600 like collecting this? Like is it just to like continue 333 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:40,500 to lie? This. 334 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,700 So that you, you get whatever gems, whatever, 500 of the gems 335 00:18:44,700 --> 00:18:47,600 that you need, right? Actually just like collect 336 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,600 everyone and get them to the highest level is a clicker. 337 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,100 Masquerading is no PG. Yeah. 338 00:18:52,100 --> 00:18:53,700 And I think that's exactly what this is. 339 00:18:53,700 --> 00:18:57,300 And I think we've seen there are other games that kind of do this 340 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,300 without the story, right? Yeah. 341 00:19:00,300 --> 00:19:03,400 And I think this just sort of packages it and a different way 342 00:19:03,500 --> 00:19:07,600 and because I'm a I'm not a story guy, there's then we take 343 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,800 away the story and then there's no this is T is gameplay, 344 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:12,600 there's kind of Nothing Left, Right? 345 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:16,000 Just such a strange, just like, if someone hadn't told me I 346 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,200 would never guess, this was a Nintendo game. 347 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,300 Yeah, it does not feel like a Nintendo game at. 348 00:19:21,300 --> 00:19:25,200 All right. I do feel like it's it is a very 349 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,600 high quality mobile game that's made in Japan. 350 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,500 Yeah. That Nintendo felt like, okay, 351 00:19:29,500 --> 00:19:32,300 the quality here is good enough to call it a Nintendo game. 352 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:33,600 Right? Because it was largely developed 353 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,200 by another studio right now. Yeah. 354 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,200 Until you put their brand new stamp of approval on it. 355 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:39,700 Yeah. Go put that loading screen on 356 00:19:40,100 --> 00:19:41,700 Nintendo. Yeah. 357 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:43,900 Yeah. - you just steal candy floss. 358 00:19:44,300 --> 00:19:47,900 You your enticed by this sort of sugary pink wonder who? 359 00:19:48,100 --> 00:19:49,500 What is this?

Okay. 367 00:20:09,900 --> 00:20:15,900 If you have never heard of like expression said it all and you 368 00:20:15,900 --> 00:20:18,800 know the same thing you do is like you go into a dungeon you 369 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,700 hack and slash right. You all you do is you're 370 00:20:21,700 --> 00:20:23,800 clicking the mouse kind of mindlessly clicking the mouse. 371 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,400 It's sort of I mean they're going to be Parts where it's 372 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:30,600 like exciting because you're about to die but you just go in 373 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,600 there Hack and Slash and all you're really doing is trying to 374 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,100 level up your person. To get the better weapons and to 375 00:20:39,108 --> 00:20:41,800 get the better gear and that's all that's a game, right? 376 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,000 Like the game isn't really about the hacking and slashing, it's 377 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,300 about you collecting these items. 378 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,800 And I feel like, that's kind of what this is. 379 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,300 This is all about just collecting the people. 380 00:20:51,500 --> 00:20:54,600 Hmm. Maybe experiencing the story 381 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:59,000 secondary and this the actual fighting is like third. 382 00:20:59,100 --> 00:21:02,600 We have attempted to buy one of the upgrade packs or welcome 383 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,000 packs. Yeah, I think I will. 384 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,700 Yeah, I think I will like Like if there's anything that I like 385 00:21:08,700 --> 00:21:13,700 there is he's collecting carriages and assorted woman and 386 00:21:13,700 --> 00:21:18,900 befriending Dragons, thankfully not big-breasted Dragon, so hmm. 387 00:21:19,100 --> 00:21:23,000 Maybe why not gonna like? I don't know if it's that kind 388 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:27,000 of game, I'm going to bash the UI some more. 389 00:21:27,100 --> 00:21:30,200 Okay. So in addition to be confusing, 390 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,800 it's just really difficult to even start a game. 391 00:21:33,500 --> 00:21:37,000 I haven't played this game for maybe a day and I picked up 392 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,800 Morning and I just for fun counted. 393 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,500 The number of TAPS, it took twenty eight Taps from launching 394 00:21:42,500 --> 00:21:46,700 the game to actually playing a level, which is bananas. 395 00:21:46,700 --> 00:21:48,900 I had to like bananas. Well, I'm sure we'll talk about 396 00:21:48,900 --> 00:21:50,500 the download things soon. Oh, yeah. 397 00:21:50,500 --> 00:21:54,000 Downloading a play, The Daily Game. 398 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,300 There's read this story. There's choose your characters. 399 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,700 It's just so Bonkers. Yeah. 400 00:22:00,700 --> 00:22:03,300 Like who is going to sit there and tap 28 times, just play this 401 00:22:03,300 --> 00:22:05,400 down game. They also love arrows. 402 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,500 Oh yeah, the real there are Three arrows on screen telling 403 00:22:08,500 --> 00:22:09,800 you, which direction you're going in. 404 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,200 It's just so kill Arius. There's have been like some 405 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,000 focus group with a really concerned that players won't 406 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,300 know which direction they're running in without three arrows 407 00:22:18,500 --> 00:22:22,300 because you get the Giants Arrow, where you tap on the 408 00:22:22,300 --> 00:22:25,900 screen, which takes up probably an eighth of the screen which 409 00:22:26,500 --> 00:22:27,400 serves no purpose. Yeah. 410 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,800 You know, is where your thumb is moving? 411 00:22:29,100 --> 00:22:32,600 You have an arrow around your player again indicating the area 412 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,200 they're running. Yeah, well the player is running 413 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,400 in that direction too so you can surmise the direction it 414 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,200 running. There's a mini map on top with 415 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:39,600 an arrow showing, which way you're running. 416 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:41,900 Like, I know which way I'm running. 417 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,500 Like, I understand you sure is your thumb going the right way? 418 00:22:45,500 --> 00:22:48,200 I don't even tell you, you can you can control your character 419 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,700 from anywhere on the screen, but we recommend the lower third, 420 00:22:50,700 --> 00:22:53,500 because this giant ass arrows it'll cover up everything. 421 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:55,700 It's just so crazy. I don't understand. 422 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,700 This is why I got annoyed, sure. You're not lost in this game, 423 00:22:59,700 --> 00:23:01,100 right? They take the title, very 424 00:23:01,100 --> 00:23:04,700 seriously. It's like, hey, I know it says 425 00:23:04,700 --> 00:23:06,900 reality of loss but we really don't want you to be lost. 426 00:23:07,100 --> 00:23:09,200 Here. You gotta drag that are oh so 427 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,100 you're not lost. That should be the name of the 428 00:23:12,100 --> 00:23:13,200 game call. You are. 429 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:14,200 Oh, I know. Yeah. 430 00:23:14,300 --> 00:23:16,200 There's just it's just one of those decisions. 431 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,300 This baffling is maybe three different teams. 432 00:23:19,500 --> 00:23:23,100 I won t, Maids other machines are one team, made the character 433 00:23:23,100 --> 00:23:26,300 design or nearly 13 made the UI or let it touch you. 434 00:23:26,300 --> 00:23:28,700 I and each time I like oh yeah we had put an arrow on, that's 435 00:23:28,700 --> 00:23:31,000 truly somebody. It is, you get three hundred 436 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:34,800 arrows on the screen, the number of arrows actually didn't strike 437 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,500 me as odd. It just seemed sort of All that 438 00:23:37,500 --> 00:23:39,300 go awesome about the right amount of arrows. 439 00:23:39,300 --> 00:23:42,800 Okay, we do have to talk about this download thing though 440 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:47,700 because this is not a game that's friendly or no internet 441 00:23:47,700 --> 00:23:50,100 connection at all. Oh boy. 442 00:23:50,100 --> 00:23:51,100 Yeah. Oh boy. 443 00:23:51,500 --> 00:23:53,300 Every single mission that you have to do. 444 00:23:53,300 --> 00:23:55,900 You have to download at least like two megabytes of the. 445 00:23:55,900 --> 00:23:58,100 I don't know what it is. Yeah. 446 00:23:58,100 --> 00:23:59,500 Is it the background? Is it? 447 00:23:59,500 --> 00:24:00,500 The characters that are in there? 448 00:24:00,500 --> 00:24:04,300 Is it the voice something? I don't understand like why this 449 00:24:04,300 --> 00:24:07,800 game was so large to begin with when we're going through the 450 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:08,900 Callahan's, right? Yeah. 451 00:24:08,900 --> 00:24:11,400 Like two-and-a-half Kings a download to begin with, right. 452 00:24:11,500 --> 00:24:15,000 And then seemingly it every like mini chapter. 453 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:16,600 There's little pop-up. Oh good. 454 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,800 A download another 100 Meg's. And this is, these are set 455 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,400 chapters. It's not like a branching tree 456 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,000 of choices. You made all the choices rights, 457 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,900 assemble a new level for you. Yeah, it's baffling. 458 00:24:28,900 --> 00:24:31,500 It is baffling. You also cannot play it without 459 00:24:31,500 --> 00:24:34,200 internet connection at all. Which is silly, which is crazy. 460 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,800 I think it just seems to me. That was just a sign that didn't 461 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,400 end. Oh, just doesn't quite get 462 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,600 mobile games.

Okay. 567 00:29:59,500 --> 00:30:03,000 I'm is a, might think of the week, the week is to actually do 568 00:30:03,100 --> 00:30:05,200 things that I say. I'm going to do though, is this 569 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,900 like action notes for yourself that and you're actually going 570 00:30:07,900 --> 00:30:11,500 to do them? Yeah, I think in this, in this, 571 00:30:11,700 --> 00:30:14,500 modern culture, it has become so endemic. 572 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,400 The people do Just go. Yeah, we'll do it but actually 573 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,500 not that. I am trying to consciously 574 00:30:20,900 --> 00:30:22,600 notice. When I do that I say and then 575 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:29,700 not do it or at least be very make a very deliberate effort to 576 00:30:29,700 --> 00:30:35,200 think about things, I say yes to and then do them if I say yes. 577 00:30:35,900 --> 00:30:37,500 But then also say, no, it's a little bit. 578 00:30:37,500 --> 00:30:41,200 Like one of those books you had back in the old book club days, 579 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:46,300 minimalism essentialism the essentialist Essentialism 580 00:30:46,300 --> 00:30:52,100 essentialism by Greg McCune McCowen McEachern Kyurem. 581 00:30:52,300 --> 00:30:55,300 Yeah yeah only two and a half years up, reread it. 582 00:30:55,300 --> 00:30:56,800 I'm actually gonna try and put into practice. 583 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,000 Okay, so we will see how this goes. 584 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,900 Can you give me an example of something a little trivial 585 00:31:01,900 --> 00:31:04,200 example, but I think is something that many of us would 586 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:09,700 do, and that is only week I had said to, you know, some friends 587 00:31:09,700 --> 00:31:12,900 like, oh yeah, well, if we go for drinks on Friday and it's 588 00:31:12,900 --> 00:31:14,600 just a there very easily without actually. 589 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,000 Meaning it, right? Yeah, that's right. 590 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:17,900 Yeah.

In Jersey City. 593 00:31:22,300 --> 00:31:26,900 Mmm, which as you know, yeah, that's a death trap for anyone 594 00:31:26,900 --> 00:31:32,100 in Manhattan, but I said, no, I as much as I wanted to go home. 595 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,600 I said, no no, Ed. When you had said, yes, and you 596 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,800 shall go to Jersey City. How is he did go? 597 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,800 I went, I was, he said no to yourself, I said no to saying, 598 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:43,400 no? Okay, because I'd said, yes, 599 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:45,500 right. And I think, in the past, I 600 00:31:45,508 --> 00:31:48,000 would have flaked. Yeah, maybe mean like oh sorry. 601 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,200 Something came up. I can't make it or some other 602 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:51,600 BS. Excuse will have a headache or 603 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:55,700 whatever, but no, I went and I had some delightful drinks on a 604 00:31:55,700 --> 00:31:57,800 rooftop in Jersey City, overlooking the Manhattan 605 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,600 skyline and I was home by 10:00 our great. 606 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,700 So, I was quite proud of myself, but I say there was a thing that 607 00:32:04,700 --> 00:32:06,100 was going to that. I said I do. 608 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,600 I think the old days I probably would not done it. 609 00:32:09,700 --> 00:32:12,100 Yeah but just being just noticing myself and going you 610 00:32:12,108 --> 00:32:13,300 know what know you are going to do it. 611 00:32:14,100 --> 00:32:15,900 I did it. Yeah so I mean I sound like a 612 00:32:15,908 --> 00:32:18,600 trivial example know exactly in the past that is something I 613 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:20,300 totally would have just. The thing is like I can totally 614 00:32:20,300 --> 00:32:21,700 relate to that. Right? 615 00:32:21,700 --> 00:32:25,300 There are so many times where I say, sure I'll come out to your 616 00:32:25,300 --> 00:32:30,500 party on Saturday. And I'm Han and I live in New 617 00:32:30,500 --> 00:32:34,700 Jersey and there's no way there's no way I'm gonna be 618 00:32:35,100 --> 00:32:38,100 coming out on Saturday night to just have drinks with you, 619 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,300 right? So I totally I completely 620 00:32:41,300 --> 00:32:45,100 understand. No and maybe one day I'll get 621 00:32:45,100 --> 00:32:51,100 there but until then I'm going to continue to be a flake and or 622 00:32:51,100 --> 00:32:53,600 just pretend like I'm trying really hard to make it there on 623 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,300 the flip side of that is saying no to things. 624 00:32:55,300 --> 00:32:57,500 I think the hardest thing is fighting the fomo. 625 00:32:58,300 --> 00:33:00,600 Right. Yeah, yeah. 626 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:05,200 The police will be could say. Yeah, I think that's and social 627 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,800 media doesn't make it easier as well, because you're there. 628 00:33:07,900 --> 00:33:11,600 Sat at home saying, oh, you said no to this party, but you see 629 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,000 all your friends at this party schedule their refreshing 630 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:15,700 Instagram.

Yeah. 635 00:33:26,500 --> 00:33:29,500 So have a good reason. To be truthful to yourself. 636 00:33:29,500 --> 00:33:31,100 Yeah.

Yeah, that's not a Snappy title 640 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:43,500 but that's all I could come up with for that. 641 00:33:43,500 --> 00:33:47,100 Is that is it's hard, though. It's a hard thing onto my thing 642 00:33:47,100 --> 00:33:48,500 of the week. I'm gonna go back to the 643 00:33:48,508 --> 00:33:51,100 original formula and say, I've been playing a game called 644 00:33:51,100 --> 00:33:53,200 Spider-Man. Aha. 645 00:33:53,300 --> 00:33:57,700 Yes for hmm. So Insomniac games came out with 646 00:33:58,700 --> 00:34:01,200 Spider-Man game for the PS4.

Yeah, it's great looking. 648 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:09,500 And one of the best parts is you can fling around the city of 649 00:34:09,500 --> 00:34:13,600 Manhattan in quite detail. Using your spider web. 650 00:34:14,199 --> 00:34:15,100 Whew.
