Hey everybody, welcome back to the Max Frequency Podcast, episode I don't know what number this, four, three, it's in there.
*00:00*
And being like, hey, we gotta beat them.
*00:00*
Yeah, that was pretty cool.
*00:00*
Uh they were like uh wow Andy's really stepping it up or Barrett you're really stepping it up or something and it's just like and then like none of them could say anything like they were just like all ignoring these comments
*00:00*
And I always of course wanted to retweet it and be like, this is great and everything, but I I couldn't I couldn't I couldn't do any of that.
*00:00*
Uh but yeah no it was it was it was it was interesting in those first few months uh seeing people respond to things and saying things were good or even m some negative comments and I couldn't respond to it at all.
*00:00*
And I was just like, oh my god guys, come on, come on, let me have this.
*00:00*
What do I do outside of work?
*00:00*
Like it's it's they have like those uh those tabs that are very easy for you to kind of understand what's happening.
*00:00*
I was like F this and I took the entire thing and I threw it into DaVinci Resolve.
*00:00*
See, it's interesting.
*00:00*
It's so strange that they went for that that like pr it like Da Vinci is almost like I shouldn't say copy, but it's definitely taking cues from Premier and, you know, very other uh other nonlinear editing software.
*00:00*
Yeah, it's interesting.
*00:00*
And I could just live my life and then just like go back to it and then just be like, Hey, I did that ten years later.
*00:00*
But I have adult fanfiction of of Splinter Cell, where I have this idea that um it's just gonna be like a regular, like it's a regular trailer or whatever of like
*00:00*
And it's upsetting.
*00:00*
He bought it.
*00:00*
No, Chaos Theory was not on 3DS.
*00:00*
I would always see it and I I saw like they had like the weird uh in order to add like the 3D element to it, they had uh in conviction when things would just be on the wall, like like in terms of like, oh, enter the bank or whatever.
*00:00*
There's a bunch of weird ones and it's just like well just give me one.
*00:00*
Oh crap mate.
*00:00*
I've been also playing uh uh Mario 64 uh for the first time ever.
*00:00*
I may I'm say younger, loosely, like 17, 16.
*00:00*
Yeah, exactly.
*00:00*
And he's like, yep, my I said, my name is Alex or whatever.
*00:00*
And then also she was very not negative, but she didn't really care about Chloe like as much.
*00:00*
And then yesterday, I figured or uh it was yesterday maybe or Monday, I figured out how to use an external hard drive on the Vita TV because those proprietary memory cards suck.
*00:00*
Or pop, whatever their names are.
*00:00*
Yeah, no, I we so when we started it and I was doing a lot of social videos and the videos were very different than the things we were doing that that Kind of Funny was doing before I joined.
*00:00*
Rod Roger Bacordi getting hired are kind of funny and I'm and I like I thought it was in my best interest to be like, I wish guys and then immediately people started responding being like, huh, that's what they always say.
*00:00*
Where I'm like, oh I gotta be, you know, worth equals uh working equals worth and things like that, which is just not a healthy thing to have, but I still have that in a little bit.
*00:00*
You know, th they were like, you know what, let's let's I think this might be the best move.
*00:00*
I would much rather you be here and I think that you would much rather be here and I think we can make it happen.
*00:00*
You know, I didn't have to do metadata for any videos, like I didn't have to upload them.
*00:00*
Yeah.
*00:00*
Dude, can I be remote?
*00:00*
So it's tough to be like, oh, we can't do that at all.
*00:00*
And it was very early.
*00:00*
for the Max Roberts tweet.
*00:00*
Premiere.
*00:00*
kind of funny games every Monday.
*00:00*
You know what I mean?
*00:00*
People are like, well, that's the one from Was that the Russia one?
*00:00*
God I can't believe that it was just on an open form on like the homepage or whatever it was.
*00:00*
Just like, well, I don't know how even how you did that, but okay.
*00:00*
Bloomberg did this piece that really blew over and no one no one in the years since has come out and found evidence of this.
*00:00*
Uh I'm gonna make sure to text you when that Splinter Cell gets announced.
*00:00*
But um in the reveal, I say this every year.
*00:00*
Yeah.
*00:00*
You know, maybe we do a flashback mission halfway through.
*00:00*
And then that was like a though he's killed his daughter.
*00:00*
Yeah.
*00:00*
They're making a TV show for it too.
*00:00*
Heck yeah.
*00:00*
How much are they gonna get a return on that?
*00:00*
So I always thought it was a good thing.
*00:00*
Yeah.
*00:00*
It's been interesting.
*00:00*
Uh I They just came out on PC so I didn't know.
*00:00*
I think you're one of those.
*00:00*
Uh she's never played it before.
*00:00*
Smart.
*00:00*
About Uncharted.
*00:00*
Like it's a rough it's a Uncharted One is rough.
*00:00*
I'm a little hungry.
*00:00*
Watch, watch, look at the moment look at look look what happens.
*00:00*
Five Nights at Freddy's Five Nights at Freddy's for Friday.
*00:00*
It's a solid one.
*00:00*
First one or second?
*00:00*
So she who did not care about Ndeen, which is fine.
*00:00*
I was like, yeah, but like this is like all about like instead of just showing you everything, a charter doesn't i instead of showing you like what happened to them or whatever, like you're playing through this point of view and playing and I Yeah
*00:00*
Yeah.
*00:00*
I mean, I'm not sure.
*00:00*
Punch up a bunch of like it was just super simple and I was just maybe angry honestly.
*00:00*
This is a great tool.
*00:00*
You know what I mean?
*00:00*
It's just garbage.
*00:00*
Hi Roger.
*00:00*
Sounds official.
*00:00*
Oh, that all sounds like something a producer may do.
*00:00*
Which I should probably close in the background.
*00:00*
Two weeks later the embargo lifts and it it's nothing like what you thought.
*00:00*
you know, you're our friend and we're excited for you.
*00:00*
really close to like offers and things like that from different companies.
*00:00*
The freelancing is very uh uh when it rains it pours, right?
*00:00*
Um so like there was a lot of great opportunities happening all at once and then um kind of funny offered me the job.
*00:00*
He's a very phone heavy guy, he calls people.
*00:00*
uh in instead of texting it uh to you.
*00:00*
It's nice to get a a Tim Geddes phone call here and there.
*00:00*
and then breaking away for maybe a day and then coming back and then having a little bit more of that puzzle figured out and then com and then breaking up and coming back again
*00:00*
Him and I talked about it in in detail and we kind of figured it out.
*00:00*
how professional kind of funny gets.
*00:00*
the back end of everything and uh the way that we do business is is is rather professional, which is something that I I was a little bit surprised.
*00:00*
I would think the scale of just the the the content that you you produce and cover and the companies that you work with, like you there you do uh th the whole crew really does put off this um dumpster truck
*00:00*
uh the way that we upload videos and the way that we segment things.
*00:00*
It was it wasn't like hey here's a job offer immediately.
*00:00*
I don't know your specific upload and edit schedule for everything, but like would you if COVID wasn't necessarily a thing, would you have
*00:00*
I mean they rhyme, right?
*00:00*
uh if you could even call it that of just, you know, team building and just being there with people and that's a completely different the
*00:00*
The serendipity of like being in person.
*00:00*
stuff.
*00:00*
the studio above the comic shop.
*00:00*
you know, COVID and all that stuff.
*00:00*
So I put my internet on your situation and think it's miserable, but apparently you have great internet.
*00:00*
I'm on I'm on West Coast time right now.
*00:00*
And he texts me and my boss at eight o'clock in the morning our time, which is five in the morning for my boss.
*00:00*
So that was a that was a lesson to learn is something it's something.
*00:00*
I feel like exporting should be the least nervous time of the Yes of the edit.
*00:00*
I think branding is a huge part of this.
*00:00*
that gets a lot of people in.
*00:00*
Um like even Da Vinci like has a weird, really weird uh way of doing things.
*00:00*
My renders are still taking like an hour plus and I have 64GB of RAM.
*00:00*
Like I I have like uh I have I've the some of the best stuff you can ever get and then yeah at least in this in this range of of video editing and this is the stuff that they recommend you get and it still doesn't work well.
*00:00*
Right.
*00:00*
So it's like whatever one fourth of four ADP is, I'm watching.
*00:00*
By the way, this is the this is the closest we've ever cut it with a blessing show episode.
*00:00*
conceivably should be very very simple in terms of like the planning that I put into it.
*00:00*
what I imagine, you know, is these Apple fanboys, you know what I mean?
*00:00*
the professional end, you know, twenty thousand, thirty thousand dollar screens.
*00:00*
Um so then it just brings you to After Effects so that you can do all your work at After Effects.
*00:00*
Um so it's it's a bit of a it's a bit of a gamble.
*00:00*
Which is um which is annoying.
*00:00*
I mean it is visual, but it's a different type of visual learner.
*00:00*
So like it it's it's not a bad um translation.
*00:00*
I would totally be down, but I think I'm just like I'm like an old man at this point.
*00:00*
cost me like thirty five bucks a month, so that's how I feel with something like TikTok.
*00:00*
And then my and then Abby, Abby is like all over TikTok.
*00:00*
I think it was her phone or whatever.
*00:00*
I said Abby.
*00:00*
E3's information leak this year.
*00:00*
A few years ago, I want to say twenty eighteen, Bloomberg posted an article called like The Big Hack or something.
*00:00*
that there were a bunch of like tiny microchips implanted on Apple, Amazon, Google servers around the world.
*00:00*
the amount of money I could put into a PC.
*00:00*
uh they're switching their whole lineup here within the next year and a half to their own processors.
*00:00*
one day you'll wake up and they'll have like the M M three or whatever in a in a Mac Pro and it'll y the the scales will fall from your eyes and you'll see the light.
*00:00*
But I wouldn't I wouldn't be surprised if something's like.
*00:00*
You know, I feel like ever since uh the passing of Steve Jobs, people have always been like, they haven't been original, they haven't been doing anything new.
*00:00*
performance and things like that.
*00:00*
It's it's interesting and I'm I'm I'm always looking out for it and I I'm always um we're my type of family at least.
*00:00*
If they were able to have that ecosystem that I could be like, okay, like I I don't feel like I'm missing out on PC stuff, then I would go over.
*00:00*
I actually don't know if you can go buy it like in a store like you used to.
*00:00*
Think about it.
*00:00*
I am always hounding you for Sam Fisher content.
*00:00*
Boom.
*00:00*
And he's telling he's he's telling Michael B.
*00:00*
Ever it doesn't make any sense.
*00:00*
the regular voice actors, like you know, how you can do in animated things, but apparently they're like, nope, we gotta we gotta be so realistic with this.
*00:00*
You know, I don't know, like, you know, like there's there's terrorists and there's bombs and there's th you know, all these peop people stole steal oil or something.
*00:00*
And like that, I feel like there's just a lot of potential for a game like this and just in general for Stealth, like Stealth is kind of having a bit of renaissance here and there, and I don't think it's a dead genre whatsoever.
*00:00*
Yeah, it's And it's a amazing.
*00:00*
It's weird.
*00:00*
Like why why are you going to prioritize a game like even beyond two souls?
*00:00*
Asking like Jeff Grubb's comments and things like that.
*00:00*
I I think I would want like a true open world experience um if they were to do anything other than linear.
*00:00*
Right?
*00:00*
a hitman game for sure.
*00:00*
I still have my PS2 copies of the first game and Pandora tomorrow.
*00:00*
Oh yeah, it's the Spawner Cell three D.
*00:00*
There's um the PSP um Splinter Cell was it black uh was it something it was like uh let me see if I can find it.
*00:00*
Might replay it.
*00:00*
And like and like Switch.
*00:00*
On a serious note, I mean, if you if you play one you finish one and you you enjoy it, two is excellent.
*00:00*
Uh playing Kingdom Hearts 3, you know, after waiting so long for that game, it really is a PS2 game at its core.
*00:00*
And it's just good.
*00:00*
You know, d it's t the heart of Kingdom Hearts is is remained strong for for all these years.
*00:00*
It's it's it's it hayley Joel.
*00:00*
So I've been playing uh very it's almost like whiplash, I've been playing a lot of Kingdom Hearts and then I go into the Sopranos.
*00:00*
Which is great.
*00:00*
Was it Call of Duty or God of War?
*00:00*
and you're just like, hey, I want to slice some dudes in half.
*00:00*
Yeah.
*00:00*
Uh fam, she plays she has a thousand hours plus an Animal Crossing.
*00:00*
She asked, she was like, hey, are am I gonna get like jumped leaving the store?
*00:00*
Just please pick these up.
*00:00*
Um so sh but she also her and I have been playing a lot of Fortnite recently.
*00:00*
Uh yeah Uncharted 1 is is is is difficult to go to if it's your first time.
*00:00*
The day after Christmas is one of the best Christmases ever.
*00:00*
So like we would stand the one time a week that we see each other playing uncharted and for like a good two weeks until it we finally were able to finish it.
*00:00*
Three was a a moment.
*00:00*
them.
*00:00*
Uh you f they fall into the water and Nathan's like, Hey, are you okay, uh Lena?
*00:00*
Just it was just also like, oh the yeah, that's true.
*00:00*
She was actually a a wonderful trooper when part two came out.
*00:00*
It honestly on the nose at the ending for my taste, but it's a few.
*00:00*
The first of Persona 5.
*00:00*
Uh I feel like I wish I had more mom and cop uh mom and grot pop shops.
*00:00*
And then Easter happened and they mentioned the thieves uh at church.
*00:00*
She's like she's gonna be a little bit more.
*00:00*
the the the the Jason game what's that what's like uh uh um Friday the 13th it's Friday the 13th Jesus I'm just this is how this is how corrupted my brain is I just said fr
*00:00*
Nope.
*00:00*
Yeah.
*00:00*
This was a moment I wasn't there for that.
*00:00*
And yeah, that it's it's very true.
*00:00*
the fact that, you know, it doesn't end, it doesn't it doesn't take doesn't become like a depressing depressing game like lots of us do it it become it's still it has that storybook ending which I which I really appreciated that they suck their guns to.
*00:00*
The fact that a ca the studio that made Last of Us was able to be like, okay, we know that what this game is, we're gonna continue with it, and we're gonna be very truthful to it, and I I really appreciate it that way.
*00:00*
Honestly.
*00:00*
Yeah.
*00:00*
You know, and stuff.
*00:00*
Roger they go for over a hundred and fifty dollars.
*00:00*
3D All-Stars and I bought it I checked at midnight and it was still there.
*00:00*
But like so like it should have it worked fine, you know what I mean?
*00:00*
And she's like, I don't think we can sport fifty thousand dollars in video game period.
*00:00*
I'm I'm a individual.
*00:00*
uh every week, Monday, I believe at nine AM PST that goes up.
*00:00*
I get your hue again, what we talked about at the top.
*00:00*
I don't agree with him, but then I just keep that to myself and go, You're still a cool guy, blessing.
*00:00*
I met Blessing I think at PAX East.
*00:00*
Yeah, but like you know, I feel you know I feel in my heart that he's a little shorter.
*00:00*
I I really I'm gonna edit this out because I really don't remember where the strength was going
*00:00*
We were going through a bunch of different names and I feel like that was the one that sounded most official and uh most vague.
*00:00*
I remember an old I think one was like Game Cake.
*00:00*
Meeting in the middle, see meeting halfway.
*00:00*
pretty much right like it's it's um it's kind it's kind of funny the video content producer that's the that's what uh Tim and I can came to the conclusion of
*00:00*
uh just for the for the next gen um uh consoles and things like that.
*00:00*
I I think that's actually really cool that people not only could tell that there was something different in the product, whether it it's g it was better or worse.
*00:00*
And the community is full of a bunch of detectives and and people that may have too much time on their hands that they can just speak you know, they can like
*00:00*
The they can infer I mean, I used to be like that in a in a way.
*00:00*
Bah ba bah ba this is clearly he means this and you've got your red strain and your your uh cork board and you're you're figuring out and then two weeks later
*00:00*
Uh I think when the kind of funny like the um the January uh anniversary event was about to happen, I tweeted something like, Oh I'm excited to see what they do.
*00:00*
like sixteen we've been talking about it like somewhat jokingly in the beginning, but then it got a little bit more serious as as time went on and you know with pandemic times and you know January fourth coming up pretty fast, we were like
*00:00*
Um, but so I w I was having long periods of droughts of like not having a lot of work to do.
*00:00*
And I would n I would not have thought him as a call people guy.
*00:00*
Um but then the time came where uh I was getting an offer or two and then I mentioned it to him and we're like, Okay, like I think it's time for you to come on the team.
*00:00*
Um so it was a process, but it was it it was great.
*00:00*
goofing around and just doing stuff.
*00:00*
So it's interesting to see it like in the first hand point of view.
*00:00*
What is it I I'm honestly super curious about working remotely.
*00:00*
They're out obviously in San Francisco.
*00:00*
The back end of everything, like I can edit videos fine from home.
*00:00*
w you all do, I think b that is a c can be a key factor in that type of work.
*00:00*
we can kind of all figure this out together.
*00:00*
Uh and that's very extraordinarily ri rigid, right?
*00:00*
um dichotomy of you know, I I can go to my my bosses and and be completely honest and we can figure it out from there.
*00:00*
I would say not the easiest in the world, like working from home for sure, especially in a creative field and especially in a creative field that I haven't like you know, I I I'm friends of friends with everyone on the team, but I haven't like
*00:00*
work and, you know, necessity of like who needs to be in the office, who doesn't need to be in the office.
*00:00*
Everything's f everything's everything's great on that end.
*00:00*
the thing that uh that is the biggest downfall I feel like from working from home.
*00:00*
It's okay.
*00:00*
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
*00:00*
the working from home situation like time difference and internet speeds are the least of my concern.
*00:00*
crappy um gaming um laptop that I had earlier that I was running all my edits from.
*00:00*
So uh I don't know, maybe a month ago, you said you were switching from premiere to resolve.
*00:00*
Um that workflow is just so nice and I I have not been able to find anything um remotely as good, but
*00:00*
Uh when I was a teen I was doing stuff in After Effects.
*00:00*
have like a Photoshop after effects like weird, you know, the way that they're doing things.
*00:00*
um when you actually get into the nuts and bolts of what this program does.
*00:00*
has to edit uh he had to edit a um a male uh a super Super Smash Bros melee um highlight video that he did for like a contest.
*00:00*
and he never had any he n had no idea what he was doing and I walked him through it and it was it was very simple and you you can kind of get your your head around it really fast, more so than I feel like than a lot of other um editing softwares um that are supposed to be for the pro level.
*00:00*
with Premiere, it just breaks apart to the point where my favorite thing, my favorite thing is when, first of all, in every project that I've ever had, there's always a new thing that breaks apart.
*00:00*
You Google that exact problem, people have those issues since twenty ten.
*00:00*
is that these same exact problems have been going on since 2010 and they don't they don't address it.
*00:00*
But then it's just broken in the core of it.
*00:00*
Barely.
*00:00*
And it the upsetting thing is that just Da Vinci just doesn't have a great workflow for after effects.
*00:00*
in it but I will say I'm sorry if I'm this is just a a random escapade going off all over the place.
*00:00*
Whatever, it was just a whole nightmare, but that was way easier than me dealing with Premier's crap.
*00:00*
I really do wish that I could use Final Cut.
*00:00*
showed his editing process, which, you know, I think to get behind the you know, to see how people do things is fascinating.
*00:00*
Because so the whole thing is that um with Premiere it's just literally a right click and you do uh attach a dynamic link or whatever
*00:00*
And uh uh uh if let's say one of those hands comes in a little later early, I can go right back into After Effects, move it, press save, and then it uh uh adapts into Premiere.
*00:00*
Like seamlessly, which is great.
*00:00*
Um so it's easy, it's great to have like that back and forth, but the only way for me to do it with um Da Vinci would be for me to export it fully.
*00:00*
Maybe I'm gonna start doing that.
*00:00*
It takes me literally five seconds to do something a premiere, which would take me literally twenty minutes in in Da Vinci Resolve when it comes to that stuff.
*00:00*
how long you've been using the Adobe product.
*00:00*
Where I have spent a lot of time and then I'm moving to something new and it's just I'm like, but it's so much better this other way.
*00:00*
For me at least uh i the the actual Da Vinci, like going into into I don't know if you've ever have you played around with DaVinci Resolve at all?
*00:00*
too dissimilar from Premiere at all.
*00:00*
We're just gonna go off the deep end.
*00:00*
I've for the past few years I've just been more conscious about what I'm willing to give tech companies.
*00:00*
Um but then I just started like I I was very much let like that for a while and even like that in that stage I also downloaded like LastPass
*00:00*
I cannot imagine my life without a password manager.
*00:00*
Oh, the person actually broke into her bank account as well.
*00:00*
than your Facebook account.
*00:00*
Awesome.
*00:00*
one of those things that like I feel like identity theft unless it happens to you is so like far fetched sometimes where it's like all right who cares about it.
*00:00*
at the time was just a dual shocker's like a managing editor.
*00:00*
The wildest one was, um, for me at least, I mean of course all of them were terrible.
*00:00*
becoming more of like a focus like on camera stuff and they were eventually gonna do that but it was just like it kind of like pushed them into like oh like now everyone knows like found my Facebook like everyone knows how I look like
*00:00*
That's terrible.
*00:00*
She does like girlfriend reviews and one of her favorite games is DiddyCon Racing.
*00:00*
I'm like it's girlfriend reviews.
*00:00*
It is it is it is so wild that it wasn't like even a bigger deal.
*00:00*
that comes up.
*00:00*
One blog that I read regularly, anytime he cites, you know, a Bloomberg article, he always has um like a footnote every time that says
*00:00*
But that's interesting.
*00:00*
Uh yeah, again, not really corroborated and with sources that uh d it's a mess over there.
*00:00*
departments and completely different authors with editors and things like that.
*00:00*
and I didn't know anything about if I if I l was uh if I was you, I would think the same thing.
*00:00*
take ha know that in my heart that I can like take out my graphics card and put in a new one or remove my motherboard if it goes bad or something.
*00:00*
Um I think that it's just there it's just overpriced in my opinion in terms of like the amount of money I can put into a Mac in terms of
*00:00*
Along that like line of thinking, I am curious, I don't know how c how closely you follow any of this, but their new M1 processors.
*00:00*
person in terms of like knowing everything about uh these processors or anything like that, but I do watch a little bit of Linus Tech Dips.
*00:00*
going in and creating their own silicone.
*00:00*
But I well I mean Go affordable and Apple don't really go in the same sentence, but you get what I'm saying.
*00:00*
uh like the high tier performance.
*00:00*
Um, well what about Verizon?
*00:00*
a dryer, you know.
*00:00*
Something that I've I'm I'm I'm friends with uh Yuf Yusuf McGee, uh who works at uh Ubisoft and him and I have a running joke of just like I remember the first time I met him, I like was just like it was right before E3 and I was just like
*00:00*
some dude uh k uh whatever.
*00:00*
Um, yeah, no, say it's it's that's what I think.
*00:00*
Where like like this is the this is the thing that always got away.
*00:00*
interact with another NPC unless there's some scripted moment I'm probably forgetting.
*00:00*
For honor, that's that warrior game.
*00:00*
Right.
*00:00*
That's kind of been the Ubisoft model, I think maybe outside of the Watchdogs, which were predominantly single player open world games.
*00:00*
In a world where we are constantly not doing original IPs in anything, and we always bring back things that are dead or semi-dead or just freshly dead, like Dexters becoming back again, like why, sure, whatever I guess.
*00:00*
Um but like even like a like like um s I'm okay now I'm starting to say a bunch of games that are cancelled.
*00:00*
It's just annoying to me that it's like it's it's it's they have this franchise right here that people are fond of like even if it isn't like the biggest like success like it sold millions of copies in in uh blacklist like
*00:00*
It was successful or at least uh noticeable to sell millions of copies.
*00:00*
And they just can't figure out what they want.
*00:00*
Yeah.
*00:00*
They could definitely do DLC chunks later and a big map area with different approaches.
*00:00*
I think that it needs to be like kind of like that weird hybrid, or it needs to be fully open world.
*00:00*
created and I love it for that.
*00:00*
fights and then it's just like the music for way too long and then it's just a weird zoom in on like whoever character did the most damage or whatever it is
*00:00*
Dumb.
*00:00*
I I went to the midnight launch.
*00:00*
For your girlfriend, very sweet of her.
*00:00*
Uncharted.
*00:00*
uh on the PS3 that I got for Christmas.
*00:00*
It was something.
*00:00*
I feel like a lot of people I talked to actually uh Cam, we just talked about this on the episode I recorded with him, and he was talking about how there's
*00:00*
Uh he felt there was a lot of that later game that could have been cut, and I I'm just thinking, no, no, that is the game right there.
*00:00*
all of the stuff on Libertalia is what I'm here for.
*00:00*
Like the idea of like the pirates fighting each other and then seeing like the whole backstory and how it mirrors what Nathan is going through with Sam and uh it's in
*00:00*
I want that game.
*00:00*
Oh my god.
*00:00*
So she's like obviously she's aware of my love of Uncharted, because I don't I don't shut up about it.
*00:00*
the rule follower in me is like, they can't do that.
*00:00*
And I called every single mom and pop place in Maryland and I asked, do you have Persona 5?
*00:00*
So you're d they're talking about um what is his name is Saint um Dismas.
*00:00*
Target had like those buy two get one free things.
*00:00*
Yeah, it's it's interesting though, because I don't know I mean I'm gonna try to play it with my girlfriend Leonza, that's her name.
*00:00*
What if we put these two people in a game?
*00:00*
It really is is Uncharted One kind of length the first time through?
*00:00*
a cutscene or a montage of like Nate's now an official explorer and has magazines and all this stuff.
*00:00*
feelings about the way that they I mean they they clearly marketed it in a way that you thought people are gonna die and no one dies.
*00:00*
No, but I'm sure I can get one for ten dollars.
*00:00*
Homebrew college.
*00:00*
put that on my Vita and I knew Golden Abyss is one of the games you can't play on the Vita TV uh officially because it actually requires motion controls and some touch stuff.
*00:00*
And then you can play the game.
*00:00*
Yeah, I mean how could I forget, right?
*00:00*
Quest for booty.
*00:00*
143, and until next time, have a great day.
*00:00*
You, sir, are is your I wrote in my document kinda funny video man.
*00:00*
Just like stuff you really don't want in your life.
*00:00*
Look this up in your podcast player of choice.
*00:00*
How did that go?
*00:00*
I was surprised and not surprised.
*00:00*
Roger, how were you not hired before?
*00:00*
And really great work from people that I enjoy.
*00:00*
What what was that conversation like?
*00:00*
It's a little bit Or is it more official than that?
*00:00*
It's it's interesting because yeah, it's it's kinda it's the aura that we give off give off and also I think it's also just because, you know, with the content we create and the way that we create it.
*00:00*
Time work's almost there.
*00:00*
the way things are done and how to keep things orderly and how this garbage truck on fire, quote unquote, uh is able to to keep on running in a s in a smooth and orderly way.
*00:00*
can be and typically is the default.
*00:00*
had to move out to California or would you stay like Yeah.
*00:00*
make this the norm for you.
*00:00*
So I know that that's always been a um a a kind of like, hey, like if if we want to bring you on, like, you're gonna have to move to San Francisco.
*00:00*
where um it's been like, hey, like maybe we could you could stay here during the pandemic and maybe like possibly afterwards.
*00:00*
you know, been in person with them a lot to so it's tough for like team building and everything like that.
*00:00*
that that content and d downloading on my internet connection, which is like maybe three hundred megabits on a good day, and I'm just f
*00:00*
I think of my work connection 'cause I have I have to go through a VPN for my job and it just slows to a crawl.
*00:00*
for years.
*00:00*
I am slowly regressing backwards.
*00:00*
Very basic stuff.
*00:00*
But for the most of my life I've been using Final Cut.
*00:00*
And uh so he's like 23 gigabyte files.
*00:00*
What was it?
*00:00*
So I want to ask though, so it sounds like After Effects is really kind of the thing keeping you in the Premier Land.
*00:00*
Export that slash brin it into the Yeah.
*00:00*
Fusion, which is the like after effects equivalent of DaVinci Resolve, which is also, by the way, I should add, built into DaVinci Resolve and free
*00:00*
Like which is just like okay like uh cool great but it it's just like it's a I don't do you know anything about nodes like it's a node-based system
*00:00*
So in literally like I would say five hours from starting to starting booting up Da Vinci for the first time, I was rocking and rolling and I was able to edit an entire video.
*00:00*
I could get the same results or similar results.
*00:00*
While it is true that it is a company in China and specifically that app is just it has an incredible algorithm that just seems to really nail what people are interested in, it's incredible, but it's also just taking all of your information and I try
*00:00*
and like was trying to be a lot more safe.
*00:00*
No joke.
*00:00*
How how do you not it on the very least understand that like your bank should have a different password?
*00:00*
uh was just widely available online.
*00:00*
does not like Dunky.
*00:00*
That's a great that was a great video and also just the the the the poking fun at the formula of girlfriend reviews is great like the whole office bits and everything.
*00:00*
Um, turns out like they had very few sources, no one corroborated it.
*00:00*
If it was real, it would have come up by now.
*00:00*
Bloomberg posted the big hack, they have refused to retract it and until then such and such.
*00:00*
Um every job like full time in in person, like video editing place I've had had Max.
*00:00*
And I just I first all I'm a person that likes being able to tinker with things that I I have.
*00:00*
people like uh the the Verizon people or like the cable people usually come around um knocking on doors back in the day and they'd be like, hey, we see you got Optimum, which is the local one around here.
*00:00*
best.
*00:00*
like purchaseable, you can only get it in that Surface X Pro computer, whichever one has the ARM chip in it.
*00:00*
Roger?
*00:00*
operate like him in any capacity.
*00:00*
This is like the only thing in my mind.
*00:00*
every single uh animated movie or TV show now where they have like fight sequences.
*00:00*
And and then it slowly starts to become like weirdly personal for Sam.
*00:00*
And uh I think that there's a n uh kind of a want for a big Triple A single player game now.
*00:00*
Great game, uh most assuredly getting a sequel.
*00:00*
And they just wanna and Assassin's Creed.
*00:00*
Like it's just weird that they wouldn't take this chance and it seems like from at least like from like rumors and like what people have said like here and there because sometimes people ask about Spawner Cell like one of one of the twelve people that are fans of it like
*00:00*
Like in Sly 2, like those open world hubs where you could kind of sneak around and approach and you'd go into a linear level to do whatever you needed to do.
*00:00*
really satisfied.
*00:00*
Uh uh it'll to me it'll be like uh when they announce Paper Mario Origami King.
*00:00*
Or, you know, Xbox One series whatever it's called now.
*00:00*
It's just fun gameplay, really tight design, I think, but the the story I think is really rich.
*00:00*
About Kingdom Hearts and that was a whole mess.
*00:00*
and they were uh taking over his house uh and they were screwing with the internet connection and he couldn't play God of War Ascension.
*00:00*
You were playing Uncharted.
*00:00*
Two or oh yeah, I mean I love Uncharted Two, but also a T Uh oh yeah.
*00:00*
Did you get the cards, the Hello Kitty cards?
*00:00*
After like 45 minutes, to make it a long story short, I thought, hey, I wonder if the Target in Indiana where my mother lives it
*00:00*
Some of it's a little stiff.
*00:00*
And um and it was like I think before that, before you fall in the water, like some ground falls or whatever, as uncharted games happen, the ground falls, you all slide.
*00:00*
Like like like there's so many explosions and people dying and and things happening in this in this game and the things that stood out to me was in towards the end of the game when uh spoilers I guess for Uncharted 4, uh when you're when you're with a late time.
*00:00*
Um yeah, no, so th that for me those were the moments that that and like the um when they're going on the elevator and they're looking out and the yeah, like like the very understated moments in like this big action massive gang.
*00:00*
I I I was dragged by a caravan in uh in Madagascar to get to this.
*00:00*
Uh this is this is my kind of double standard.
*00:00*
Um, but he it was his birthday was was it was right before the launch of the game, like three or four days before the launch of the game.
*00:00*
It's weird to say this, but I was fortunately furloughed at the time.
*00:00*
It actually really worked out well for me as far as my job and and things.
*00:00*
Italy uh to do the the first heist for the Chr the cross.
*00:00*
I I don't like I played like I played the first hour of Ryzen Zero Dawn, didn't like it.
*00:00*
I replayed the uh all of them last year and uh I platted it.
*00:00*
There's really strong moments and uh it's fun.
*00:00*
And including Sam, which we spent like fifteen hours with or whatever.
*00:00*
And maybe part of that is because you were the one playing it and she wasn't.
*00:00*
See?
*00:00*
Oh my god.
*00:00*
But no motion control support even though there's a motion in the dual sense.
*00:00*
But I wasn't like that big of a Vita guy.
*00:00*
It's it's don't even get me started.
*00:00*
Serial mascot battle royale.
*00:00*
Um cereal.
*00:00*
of April, uh so watch that uh over at Kind of Funny Games as well.
*00:00*
It's everything you could have dreamed of and more.
*00:00*
Uh I'm I I want to second the blessing show.
*00:00*
I don't remember.
*00:00*
Thank you, Roger, for joining me.
*00:00*
And the naming the website and then I was like, I need a name for the podcast.
*00:00*
Right.
*00:00*
He sent a text message one morning to me and my boss, uh, who is in California.
*00:00*
I know time differences can really screw some people up.
*00:00*
You know at this point.
*00:00*
Uh that's that's part of the issue is that I've spent so much money on this frickin' PC and I am I it's it's just it's the same amount of of jank that I've gotten on my
*00:00*
So it's it's it's just ridiculous and 4K I can't even edit in 4K.
*00:00*
Would not it would not like and I would I but I had them in the in the timeline already edited and I would start scrubbing and it just would be like media loading media loading and they would just freeze every single time and I was
*00:00*
To me, they're not worth it.
*00:00*
Yes.
*00:00*
Same password for her bank account.
*00:00*
You could have looked those people up and found emails and probably the business address I would think.
*00:00*
M1 m you know, ARM Mac chips ever.
*00:00*
good um so like I I I would love to see what what Apple does.
*00:00*
Silicon, silicone in-house um is going to be able to tomato.
*00:00*
The P the Windows side of it, I'll t briefly it it uh it Windows just uh Microsoft j just needs to release like an well they have an ARM version of Windows ten, uh but they don't have it
*00:00*
Um so yeah, that's I uh anyway, I just I always find this stuff interesting and w how people do their work and
*00:00*
You know, 'cause I I do I don't do nearly as cool work as you do, but I I edit some videos, some training videos
*00:00*
Training training material for companies is not as entertaining, Roger, as the stuff you put out.
*00:00*
um who did uh Darth Maul originally and they brought in another stunt woman and they did like the actual choreograph fight, but then they animated it and they did the voices of
*00:00*
Yeah, Ghost Recon um Ghost Recon Wildlands had a r renaissance or what's the new one?
*00:00*
Like I think that they they should do straight linear, like here's level design.
*00:00*
the uh the reveal like you like you're saying like that.
*00:00*
It's the same thing for me with uh with uh that new Breath of the Wild uh Dynasty War Warriors game or whatever, uh Hybrid Warriors.
*00:00*
Red.
*00:00*
Still sits super strong with me.
*00:00*
You you can skip some stuff.
*00:00*
I w work I I I work in my PC all day, so then my PlayStation is like my relaxing time and like I lay in my bed and I play.
*00:00*
I played that multiplayer.
*00:00*
I mean I wouldn't be nice, but he definitely is a father.
*00:00*
I knew uh this this probably maybe a month or two ago.
*00:00*
The moments for me that stood out in Uncharted 4 specifically were moments that were so understated that I totally thought they were bigger moments.
*00:00*
Uh when you're with Elena and you're um you're you're going to the um uh I guess Avery's house uh and you go and you and you fall into the water
*00:00*
Dang we actually, no joke, we just started playing Uncharted four.
*00:00*
Blankets over um over the blinds to block out all light.
*00:00*
to start that and if she wanted to go back uh two and three or honestly lost legacy are you gonna play that next I see I haven't played Lost Legacy ever
*00:00*
So I I think I might You're in for a treat.
*00:00*
Yeah, I'm excited.
*00:00*
I t to me that I it's a seven it's a seven to eight hour game.
*00:00*
Um she was not that she didn't like it, but she was like they sh she felt like they showed too much of like the kid and like like she just like didn't feel any like she cared a lot about these characters that she spent four games with.
*00:00*
Like w yeah in the beginning of the game, you're in uh Nate and Elena's house, and if you go in the bedroom, you can look through their wedding album.
*00:00*
Yes, Roger, it's so bad.
*00:00*
Not out here, you know, playing Killzone Mercenary online to uh auto sniping people.
*00:00*
What do you want me to do with that?
*00:00*
Size matters.
*00:00*
Tools of destruction's good.
*00:00*
Back in the day, I did a podcast with Logan, uh more Michael Ruiz, and Mario Rivera.
*00:00*
Give me some of the names though.
*00:00*
semi I I feel like unprofessional is too harsh, but like yeah, th but like what does Greg's always say?
*00:00*
They closed the studio.
*00:00*
And I was like, I didn't tell him this, probably should have just been like, hey, if your internet goes out, you don't need to text the boss man.
*00:00*
complain about just the the speed of the export.
*00:00*
It's never an old thing.
*00:00*
So they're they're they're beefy boys, but they're 1080p, they're 60fps, but still.
*00:00*
With in real speed at all ever.
*00:00*
And I I he uh Blessing didn't have time to record any gameplay for the game and also just you know he's who has time to play you know ten hours of Bloodborne or whatever.
*00:00*
Um I uh so I downloaded, I ripped like all of the the Souls games you can imagine, just like the long plays of it, like 10 hours of it, eight hours of it.
*00:00*
I gotta know Roger.
*00:00*
will evolve because right now the computers available are like a MacBook Air and a 13 inch MacBook Pro and a Mac Mini.
*00:00*
Why?
*00:00*
Hitman hit like that Hitman formula of approach your target from any direction honestly has been a a part of Splinter Cell for years.
*00:00*
You can go into a a mission in Blacklist and not like no uh enemy
*00:00*
Most Ubisoft games were launched rough and then over the years turned into something extremely popular.
*00:00*
Yeah, the I don't I don't know whether the cost you know, of course obviously it costs millions of dollars to make a game like that.
*00:00*
I I'm saying seven, but I could be totally wrong.
*00:00*
I am like a detective in the kind of funny community.
*00:00*
It today, if you playing it for the first time today, it's really tough because it is it's all in one location
*00:00*
Dude, when I was a child, I had so much time.
*00:00*
Back to Uncharted, I I decided to just start with four.
*00:00*
a lot of um goodwill towards Nadine at all.
*00:00*
And if you don't want me to spoil this, I won't.
*00:00*
It's one of the th it's the it's really the reason I like Naughty Dog the most is because they put those moments on the controller and in your hand instead of just showing you.
*00:00*
hits harder for people that have it almost sounds unfair to say it's like I was here first.
*00:00*
That's uncharted related.
*00:00*
D I I'm Roger, I sat Abby down tonight with a spreadsheet and said, these are the games on PS3 and Vita I need to buy.
*00:00*
I feel like if I was choosing a serial mascot, I probably would have chosen Tony the Tiger, probably.
*00:00*
Well, if any of that just follow his mentions if it happens, it happens.
*00:00*
the the size of the files that you have to deal with.
*00:00*
Why?
*00:00*
Let's just think about it.
*00:00*
Roger, he not first of all, he's filthy r rich and has um the best of the best, which he should.
*00:00*
But this other way keeps falling apart and breaking them like it's better.
*00:00*
Yeah.
*00:00*
But what if you remove that, go into a linear level, and like you just have this open space to play in and appro you know you've got to get to this spot or this room and there's different approaches.
*00:00*
Ugh, I miss Sam.
*00:00*
Surprisingly, that kind of still holds up as like a spirit type thing.
*00:00*
To not have work when The Last of Us Part 2 came out was incredible.
*00:00*
Um incredibly thankful.
*00:00*
it knowing her and like what she would be willing to sit through, like four has the bombastic action and everything and the relationships and the development and stuff.
*00:00*
But um the Vita TV actually added support for the DualShock 4, so all the touch stuff is done on the touchpad.
*00:00*
So like as soon as I stu we started putting up these videos of like edits or just funny things going up um in terms of like video editing
*00:00*
Like I probably probably a pr uh uh uh uh only a fraction of people that use premiere probably only uh use after effects and then even more of a fraction of people
*00:00*
But they they just don't work.
*00:00*
hardware that people need on that capacity.
*00:00*
And it just across the theater and everyone loses their mind.
*00:00*
I think so.
*00:00*
It's stupid.
*00:00*
Well does it wasn't one of the first episodes of Sopranos?
*00:00*
Do you do you remember um House of Cards, Kevin Spacey?
*00:00*
She's watching it.
*00:00*
Yeah, and they gotta they gotta tell their their story their way.
*00:00*
My time is taking out.
*00:00*
Earlier this year I was like, I have a feeling they're gonna close this stuff down soon.
*00:00*
Man, what a console.
*00:00*
So it's like it's like so much pressure over there.
*00:00*
And then it happens and your address and your phone number.
*00:00*
I was able to get it through in Indiana and then I called my mom and said, I need a favor.
*00:00*
Yeah, that's why he used his PS3 for most of the time.
*00:00*
Let's meet in the middle.
*00:00*
I would have been actually really been surprised if it was just a hey, you want to work here because that that's not professional for that kind of scale.
*00:00*
I should say that.
*00:00*
It to me it's sec e I get it.
*00:00*
Barely I'm squinting the entire time.
*00:00*
It's beautiful.
*00:00*
Yeah, it's not an option in my way.
*00:00*
Is that the end gauge?
*00:00*
But then if I do that, then I'm like, you know what, then I should just round out and play Blacklist too, and then it just becomes like all a cycle, so maybe not.
*00:00*
Oh crap.
*00:00*
No, not Dune twenty sixteen.
*00:00*
Sure.
*00:00*
You know what I mean?
*00:00*
I want to have an actual conversation with you about Adobe Premiere because really I just give you a hard time about it and tweet about.
*00:00*
Like like I was this a similar way.
*00:00*
I d I didn't not know about that, huh?
*00:00*
So I threw a grenade in the water in the middle of him saying he's hungry, so that she completely lost what he was saying.
*00:00*
I've had my fair share of uh buy two get one L's.
*00:00*
30 FPS and I attach the proxy and when I start adding anything it drops immediately and I'm I'm watching it 480p one fourth the pre the preview
*00:00*
Yeah, they they were that was before they they anyone knew their names.
*00:00*
Because that's just it it's just mind-boggling.
*00:00*
I've that's always been that's always been my like my my the thing I've always had in the back of my head.
*00:00*
It's upsetting because I think that there's a lot of people that don't even like Splinter Cell, that aren't like a big Splinter Cell fans that can be brought into this franchise because of the success of a game like Hitman.
*00:00*
I mean Ubisoft definitely has a focus on live games.
*00:00*
I have a lot of Twitter time on my hands, okay?
*00:00*
I'm like, it's digital only, we have to get it.
*00:00*
It's just Barrett Blessing and Joey joined our last episode.
*00:00*
I was about to say, Roger.
*00:00*
I where was I going with this?
*00:00*
So it's like Yeah, so it's it's it but it's interesting though because it's it's it's I feel like COVID has kind of like chang it's kind of it's definitely changed the world and it's changed the way that we look at
*00:01*
Like, and we're still kind of all figuring that out together.
*00:01*
He did a Skillshare thing.
*00:01*
Um so I I'm I'm have that same mindset.
*00:01*
They totally could put Splinter Cell in if it if they didn't do episodic where they released it chunk by chunk
*00:01*
I don't know.
*00:01*
Like in, okay, cool.
*00:01*
Yes.
*00:01*
It was it was beautiful just to see her face when Sam came about out of nowhere and she was like, wait, we have a brother?
*00:01*
She could she could touch the screen and and rub off some dirt and there you go.
*00:01*
And you you started that this year, right?
*00:01*
You've got two months there where you're secretly working it kinda funny.
*00:01*
Uh honestly, my boss is up probably 5 36 anyway, his time.
*00:01*
I give it five AM and like he was like gr had the groggy voice and everything.
*00:01*
Anyway, two of those displays all run by this computer.
*00:01*
Yes.
*00:01*
She was obsessed with these games.
*00:01*
Uh Fractured Butthole, which honestly is probably one of the best game titles ever.
*00:01*
Like it's it's so hard.
*00:01*
Girlfriend Reviews did a video for DiddyCon Racing.
*00:01*
I think that's how it panned out.
*00:01*
And like that moment for me, like always stood in my mind.
*00:01*
Hello, nice to be on the Max Frequency Podcast.
*00:01*
Like what is my purpose?
*00:01*
Why do we use why is Premiere so the standard when I see a lot of people, not just you, but you know, other YouTube professionals.
*00:01*
It's always a new thing.
*00:01*
My my sister-in-law.
*00:01*
Why doesn't it exist?
*00:01*
Oh crap oh crap.
*00:01*
So she was watching So she was watching these two-mirror games being like, this is the pinnacle of action video games.
*00:01*
Yeah, she's watching it.
*00:01*
I'm excited.
*00:01*
And now I feel like there's this added pressure of the stores closing.
*00:01*
Come on.
*00:01*
Captain Crunch won, I think That makes sense.
*00:01*
So I think it's interesting.
*00:01*
And I think it works better for Splinter Cell because of course you're not dressing up as characters, you're not doing anything crazy like that.
*00:01*
Um you just if you continue with this journey, buckle up.
*00:01*
I'll go get it.
*00:01*
You work at a company that has like 50 podcasts.
*00:01*
Give me some of the other names.
*00:01*
Him Tim.
*00:01*
Yeah, I mean, you know what I mean?
*00:01*
And yeah, and then how much is Michael B.
*00:01*
I mean I'm satisfied of course if I see the three three lights, right?
*00:01*
I'm having a great time with just how dumb and stupid.
*00:01*
There's many per s but the first time it was actually coming out on PS3.
*00:01*
Uh uh at Rajformer on Twitter.
*00:01*
Um so that's yeah.
*00:01*
Yeah, exactly.
*00:01*
I have a boyfriend and he is a gamer.
*00:01*
Like like I if I don't do fanfiction.
*00:01*
Yeah, and wasn't it gonna be um George Clooney?
*00:01*
I miss him.
*00:01*
Um it's funny because um so she's she's like um very specific about the game she plays.
*00:01*
If they do, yeah, that'd be interesting.
*00:01*
Um yeah, so my girlfriend, she's very specific about the game she plays.
*00:01*
Uh-oh.
*00:01*
I don't think he's short.
*00:01*
Um you can fill in the blanks and i it'll line up with that job role.
*00:01*
And so I have a very limited understanding of After Effects.
*00:01*
I've seen those displays in person.
*00:01*
Um that's so bad.
*00:01*
It came it came with it.
*00:01*
Yeah, it's it's definitely the circumstances of the world.
*00:01*
Like come on.
*00:01*
God of War Ascension.
*00:01*
And I think that for me, I had a lot of I mean I was very emotional when I finished that Uncharted 4 for the first time.
*00:01*
I'm even more glad that I have one now because the store's closing and stuff.
*00:01*
So I can play Golden Abyss all the way through on the TV as they intended.
*00:01*
I I so it's like I I haven't really used it.
*00:01*
I had I remember when I started because I I've I've been doing this for a long time too, like in terms of like working with I remember I was like seventeen and I was calling I remember I like uh a video wouldn't go up for like a freelance and I ended up calling him
*00:01*
And I'll tell you this.
*00:01*
It's just it's just annoying because I also I this is how dedicated I am to like get away from this ecosystem is that I like am trying to learn like the
*00:01*
We're going we're going insane and it's just it's it it's interesting that they did that, but I definitely know that if I put a lot of time into it
*00:01*
You and I are part of a small community.
*00:01*
Yeah, beyond that.
*00:01*
That was good stuff.
*00:01*
I'm I and I always forget that I have this game.
*00:01*
It's ratchet.
*00:01*
Yeah.
*00:01*
But on the back, I mean, you gotta run that like clockwork.
*00:01*
I don't I I you don't have to tell me.
*00:01*
Yeah.
*00:01*
Um and I I just uh who was the last one you did?
*00:01*
What?
*00:01*
She rolled her eyes so hard, Roger.
*00:01*
You two c cuddle up for the Vita?
*00:01*
Or the honey honey smacks frog.
*00:01*
Oh it's real.
*00:01*
But the whole team I know is just the the they thrive off of and we thrive off of like that environment of being with you know creative people and doing creative things in person.
*00:01*
Uh you can watch you can watch uh party mode.
*00:01*
Like like even Google is doing it.
*00:01*
Like it like if I were to spend three thousand dollars on a PC comparatively to three thousand dollars on an Apple PC, maybe they might be com comparable in the future.
*00:01*
Yeah, I I I I've been having the itch to go to conviction to uh recently.
*00:01*
It actually launched the same night as like a StarCraft game and so everyone was there for StarCraft and I was there for God of War.
*00:01*
Yeah.
*00:01*
Yeah.
*00:01*
The ATT 3G model.
*00:01*
Him, Tim.
*00:02*
Yeah.
*00:02*
You know what I mean?
*00:02*
She can't stand his voice.
*00:02*
Yeah, the end gauge.
*00:02*
So three D it's like it is it is chaos theory, but it has fiction stuff.
*00:02*
It is a really good style.
*00:02*
The date that that the store's gonna close.
*00:02*
Um you can check out the writing over at maxfrequency.
*00:02*
Like that's you know, that's what I've done, is what you've done.
*00:02*
And it's also like it's it's Adobe, right?
*00:02*
If it was your job and color grading and editing and like that stuff, I absolutely think it's worth it.
*00:02*
And it was like a four digit number and I was like, let me guess, this is the same as your bank account, right?
*00:02*
Yeah, and then just every single person that ever logged into the Twitch channel.
*00:02*
Yeah.
*00:02*
We can do half the price or whatever.
*00:02*
They just three dots.
*00:02*
Yeah, even though that game's like never coming out.
*00:02*
There's no way.
*00:02*
So a two's great, and then I'm partial to birth by sleep, which was the PSP prequel.
*00:02*
Like I love like even like the little weird quirks that it has like um like when you do the when you play the Coliseum
*00:02*
Yeah, it's just like okay, whatever.
*00:02*
Yeah, I I love I love a good you know what I love?
*00:02*
And then she did not have to sit there the next three or two times I've played the game.
*00:02*
Yeah, exactly.
*00:02*
Sure.
*00:02*
Um he hooked me up because there's uh if you can imagine the community surrounding uh persona
*00:02*
Don't even get me started.
*00:02*
Yeah, we're canceling it already.
*00:02*
I'm like, you've gotta be kidding me.
*00:02*
It's but i he's wearing a ski mask, right?
*00:02*
I miss it.
*00:02*
Joel Osman, yeah.
*00:02*
Okay, fine, and I did it, and I did it.
*00:02*
Three was a moment for her, and the everything about that game just hit on a different level, and then we just finished four last weekend, and it was
*00:02*
God bless her, she said yes.
*00:02*
Oh.
*00:02*
That sounds traumatizing.
*00:02*
Like like I I have to be okay with like not working sometimes.
*00:02*
I think that we we we have a great uh way of pretending that we're not very uh we uh professional but
*00:02*
I'm just what that'll be.
*00:02*
I think even The Crew.
*00:02*
Assassin's Creed has had its kind of renaissance too, but again, single player, no multiplayer.
*00:02*
That was a whole thing.
*00:02*
But when you look at it in the context of when it came out, this game's revolutionary.
*00:02*
And I walk into the store and on the shelf is The Last of Us and I go, Are you selling that too?
*00:02*
No, what was it?
*00:02*
She's a bad guy.
*00:02*
I think I bought it because of I was peer pressured by Greg Miller and everyone on podcast Beyond to buy it.
*00:02*
It should be like, oh Batman on c on p on like uh my Vita, wow.
*00:02*
And we were just amazed that no one had hired you before.
*00:02*
And they're they're they're they do have another studio that they're trying to build up.
*00:02*
Um, and that's something that's great for me because I'm not the greatest at after effects or anything like that, so I make mistakes a ton.
*00:02*
For sure.
*00:02*
Like my my my idea would be to always have this be like start off as something very simple like
*00:02*
Yeah, uh for the fifth time or whatever.
*00:02*
And I don't know if Breakpoint is making it come division like a division, division two.
*00:02*
Um so yeah, because I immediately immediately sold out on my target thing.
*00:02*
It was so weird too, because we she would talk about it a lot early on in the relationship.
*00:02*
And that's a tough one to to just be like, hey, this is this these are characters I care about.
*00:02*
Obviously, they're video game people, like I'm not going to the wedding.
*00:02*
So I think that'll do it.
*00:02*
Oof.
*00:02*
What are they?
*00:02*
Yeah, exactly, exactly.
*00:02*
LastPass sucks now.
*00:02*
Yeah, for sure.
*00:02*
It's interesting something to look out to.
*00:02*
It never makes sense.
*00:02*
And it seems like like a Splinter Cell game has been in production multiple times over the years, but it just keeps on getting scrapped.
*00:02*
What a console.
*00:02*
I had one I had one uh penultimax, because uh penultimate's my favorite word, and I was like, I don't know, sure, that's uh it sounded really bad.
*00:02*
You know what I mean?
*00:02*
Because they should have hired you ages ago.
*00:02*
I started working with uh freelance were uh for um achievement hunter for a little bit, which was really amazing
*00:02*
Um so yeah no him yeah, which um it's kind of a dying art form.
*00:02*
Bouncing ideas off each other.
*00:02*
Um it's like completely um not user friendly and for someone like me who's very much of a
*00:02*
I want to figure out where's Kratos been in the past.
*00:02*
Roger, I love Uncharted.
*00:02*
I actually th I played it all in one sitting on my CRT.
*00:02*
You're like you're like tapping her arm and being like, Look, he's hungry.
*00:02*
And so people have come together and they've made like a HD patch for uh persona four golden.
*00:02*
He's never eaten it, never seen it.
*00:02*
And you spell it like this in uh uppercase letter here in the middle or whatever.
*00:02*
It was like okay let's let's let me think about things.
*00:02*
And I uh I really appreciate that honestly because like I know my mom, like she's working from home.
*00:02*
I I think the the the if anything, the only the the negative for me is just socially, right?
*00:02*
It's second nature.
*00:02*
You haven't been up for three hours doing this and drinking cups of coffee.
*00:02*
It's always something new.
*00:02*
And and that's the most ups upsetting thing is that like and then I go over to Da Vinci and Da Vinci's fine.
*00:02*
It's so interesting because then also people like I was I was at my aunt's house, um, and she's she's an older woman and she doesn't really get like any of the stuff, but she was I was like, yeah, what's the password to your like your
*00:02*
Don't worry about it.
*00:02*
Why won't we use a Mac and just jump on this final cut train?
*00:02*
So you tell me now.
*00:02*
Are you serious?
*00:02*
But um yeah, so no, him and I are talking about we're originally working on um some projects before and also we actually was working on um some Borderland shows and things like that.
*00:02*
Logan had to change his phone number.
*00:02*
You you watch this E3 video on YouTube from s 2006, and here's where you live in your social security number.
*00:02*
Like it's it's what you make out of it.
*00:02*
Jordan how to do things.
*00:02*
Yeah, that's that's that's fair.
*00:02*
Yeah, I was gonna play them on PC but I didn't want to wait.
*00:02*
God of War Ascension.
*00:02*
She was obsessed with the uh the Tomb Raider games, uh the new ones.
*00:02*
Yeah, it's gonna be your favorite game ever.
*00:02*
No, it's less official if anything.
*00:02*
And then they keep on adding these updates.
*00:02*
That's how it should be.
*00:02*
It's just I don't think I have the energy uh as of now.
*00:02*
Why does no one love it?
*00:02*
But I really I actually think the Hitman examp style could work because remember when Hitman One was actually episodic?
*00:02*
Uh the first one was Metal Gear Solid Four and I I borrowed a buddy's PlayStation while he was out of town on vacation and played that in a week.
*00:02*
That's against the rules.
*00:02*
Right.
*00:02*
It's like the only podcast that like I I don't have pressure on ever is the Next Gen podcast, which you all should listen to.
*00:02*
I don't know.
*00:02*
Yeah, imagine having to explain like what what's the name of your podcast?
*00:02*
Does it does Greg just slide in your DMs and go yo want a job?
*00:02*
Um and uh I like that.
*00:02*
Um Tim and I have had this conversation for years now almost of like, you know, it's it's almost it's definitely like the
*00:02*
And I'm like three I'm like oh in the other side of the country and everything like that.
*00:02*
So you you work on obviously PC.
*00:02*
Like it's it's very similar and you can also even go into the settings and change like to Premiere um key commands.
*00:02*
Yeah, I d this is what's most frustrating is that I've I talked to so many people and like what's my password?
*00:02*
Yeah, exactly.
*00:02*
It was a port it was a port of Chaos Theory that had some conviction elements in it.
*00:02*
If you tweet something, Roger, and I see it, I my brain starts going.
*00:02*
They would be very hungry.
*00:02*
And then yeah, and then he went there and apparently the guys were very sus.
*00:02*
Alright.
*00:02*
Like everything is a place for everything.
*00:02*
So yeah, it's it's it's been almost a year, uh half a year, and um it's I'm learning a lot in terms of like
*00:02*
It's it's it's just it's tough for me to wrap my head around.
*00:02*
And you know, just I feel that way with anything.
*00:02*
Yeah.
*00:02*
I think they need to do like this m the man in the chair thing where he's just he's just the w guy in the ear and then
*00:02*
Yeah don't you remember that?
*00:02*
And it's on PS4 for some reason.
*00:02*
It's ratchet.
*00:02*
Your style comes through it and I enjoyed a lot.
*00:02*
Like let me have this element of surprise.
*00:02*
I shouldn't say backwards.
*00:02*
Uh-huh.
*00:02*
Yeah.
*00:02*
Because it's it's it's it's the lo I shouldn't say logical, but it's the first instinct, right?
*00:02*
The reveal, I have it all coordinated out.
*00:02*
Like I'm gonna be freaking out crying and everything like that.
*00:02*
I actually I just I just bought Chaos Theory.
*00:02*
I definitely South Park.
*00:02*
Like the you use Premiere and After Effects to create your videos.
*00:02*
And that's what I like about Costani is that like it is this this o this open and honest like if
*00:03*
Yeah, you know what I mean?
*00:03*
And I'm like, okay, that's fine.
*00:03*
Just give me something.
*00:03*
Just the first one.
*00:03*
Yeah, I enjoyed that a lot.
*00:03*
Were you able to get the cards?
*00:03*
So like but then the more I think about it, the more I think it's just a perfect ending for me.
*00:03*
Well at least you have the homebrew.
*00:03*
Let's p let's pull out the notes.
*00:03*
I mean I think we all are.
*00:03*
That was like four years ago, five years ago.
*00:03*
Put him in a chair.
*00:03*
Jordan gonna take out of the pie, you know what I mean?
*00:03*
But then for this game, for some reason they have like the real like the red and white like aesthetic.
*00:03*
They played Mario Kart sixty four?
*00:03*
Yeah, I I I played a little bit of it, I should say.
*00:03*
So I bought that game.
*00:03*
You cannot.
*00:03*
Do you what do you want to plug plug away, my friend?
*00:03*
Yes.
*00:03*
But it was more of like it was more of us trying to figure out what is best for our both of us and it was kind of like a
*00:03*
And COVID makes working from home made working from home really a normal for a lot of people.
*00:03*
Like they're r they're running on they're running on the lowest spec things, you know what I mean?
*00:03*
They're gorgeous.
*00:03*
I mean Rip LastPass.
*00:03*
So I didn't have anything to do.
*00:03*
Yeah it's Uncharted.
*00:03*
That sounds like a mediation, you know what I mean?
*00:03*
I would just send it to Tim and then he would do all that work for me basically when I would do a video.
*00:03*
Like it's like it's it's all top down, like hey, like whatever they say goes.
*00:03*
And it's it's frustrating when I have I'm at the point now where I'm editing things like we're editing I'm doing party mode now, which is uh usually.
*00:03*
That's how I'm editing.
*00:03*
And but I would I would be editing it with it and it'd be fine pretty much.
*00:03*
Um he's got the top Mac Pro, he's got two.
*00:03*
So yeah, and those screens are ugly.
*00:03*
But I did it for um the the the blessing show and it was it was not that bad.
*00:03*
I'm like, uh tried.
*00:03*
Yeah, it was the Russia one.
*00:03*
Yeah, but they did the Facebook first.
*00:03*
They actually earlier this year put out semi-follow-up, like a sequel, like a bad sequel.
*00:03*
Yeah, exactly.
*00:03*
Yeah.
*00:03*
Um Alexa Ray uh uh tweeted back at me and was like, you need to play these games like very earnestly.
*00:03*
He's a he's a father.
*00:03*
You know what I mean?
*00:03*
Yeah, I mean I guess it works.
*00:03*
Oh, okay.
*00:03*
Like it's a pirate game.
*00:03*
I'm out of the company of the blessing show.
*00:03*
Uh awesome stuff.
*00:03*
I I I it was it was interesting because honestly, and I'm not gonna, you know, say specifics, but like things were happening right before I got hired are kinda funny.
*00:03*
Yeah, no, it's um it it was i I I think it's you'd you'd be surprised how
*00:03*
Like when you get into very basic edits, like it's pretty good.
*00:03*
And Bloomberg just doesn't acknowledge it.
*00:03*
For like the amount of money that I paid for this PC, I would not be able to get near the uh the level of of of performance that I have for the for this PC if for over at Mac.
*00:03*
And um yeah, it's it's it's it's a fun time, and I think that like I I made the mistake of tweeting something like
*00:03*
Whenever I see you tweet about a game, I'm like, this is what the next blessing the show is gonna be.
*00:03*
What a time period.
*00:03*
It's it's I exclusive.
*00:03*
That was fun.
*00:03*
So uh I'm eternally bl blessed for that and um I'm blessed for all the opportunities that I've had in the past and um yeah I'm glad that it took some people from uh for surprise at least.
*00:03*
Yes.
*00:03*
And I think that the idea of a creative cloud and having all these apps run together, even though half the apps you're probably not gonna
*00:03*
And it this was the first time I ever signed up for a trial of Skillshare.
*00:03*
She had her Facebook account broken into, which in and of itself, sure, whatever.
*00:03*
Yeah.
*00:03*
Yeah.
*00:03*
I feel like I feel like like people should still bring that up when the E3 conversation ever pops up.
*00:03*
But it's just it's weird.
*00:03*
Like I think their next phone I think is gonna have their own chip in it, right?
*00:03*
And my dad would be like, deal immediately.
*00:03*
But there are a ton of ports of Chaos Theory.
*00:03*
You've got Goofy.
*00:03*
Like this is this is why I'm here.
*00:03*
I was I was fortunate enough to get the game a few days early.
*00:03*
So I'm excited to try it out and and um And it's a lot it is a lot shorter
*00:03*
I know, right?
*00:03*
I mean he's a captain, right?
*00:03*
You know what I mean?
*00:03*
So I was getting in a few uh Victoria Royales before this podcast.
*00:03*
But people some people guess it.
*00:03*
Um it was really kind of a beautiful moment because like I had this is the the thing and you definitely know this.
*00:03*
Yeah.
*00:03*
And I wouldn't be surprised if if they were able to create something that was like the cutting edge and was uh comparatively affordable to the other things.
*00:03*
And I like I've been playing it, I've been enjoying it.
*00:03*
That's what we were just playing before this.
*00:03*
I was like, I want to p I want to pick.
*00:03*
It's not a big moment.
*00:03*
All too briefly.
*00:03*
You know, Blessy gives me short guy energy, even though I know he isn't probably.
*00:03*
Like I have high speed internet, you know, I have great computer, like I can totally do it.
*00:03*
That's just what I had in high school and then used on my own personal computers and stuff.
*00:03*
It's definitely not an option there.
*00:03*
Like smoke.
*00:03*
First, Ubisoft can't animate women.
*00:03*
I've never played any of them before.
*00:03*
Sure.
*00:03*
So uh a local store typically does sell new games early.
*00:03*
I had I have Blackgate Origins uh whatever, Origins Blackgate or whatever, which is just awful.
*00:03*
Great name, by the way.
*00:03*
I started in November actually.
*00:03*
But then my favorite thing about that is then you look up that new thing that broke.
*00:03*
Uh no, as as uh I I I feel like it's been very positive.
*00:03*
Like I remember when the Face app or whatever it was was like, you know, then then the whole thing was like it would randomly like start like uploading things to the cloud.
*00:03*
He wasn't a a prominent voice, um, you know, I don't think Greg's information, but d you know, Greg or Tim, like
*00:03*
Xbox Series X.
*00:03*
Uh what's up with the part?
*00:03*
Uh you can follow me there.
*00:03*
And you know, editing is also part of that technically, so it's like, you know, it has some leeway with it.
*00:03*
And I'm almost coming up on six months working at the company, which is wild.
*00:03*
I don't know if they've kept whatever that third space they were gonna move into a bigger studio anyway, but I do remember when they they turned the light off at the uh
*00:03*
I'm like, you know what, I I know my thing.
*00:03*
Um so whenever I play a Dunky video on my phone or whatever, she goes, Why is this man in our house?
*00:03*
It r it it kind of reminds me of um I don't know if you were aware
*00:03*
Windows 10?
*00:03*
But still, like that game is like has more of a pressure.
*00:03*
They did it on 3DS.
*00:03*
Remember this botlight?
*00:03*
We were just we're just ranking cereals and going crazy and like a hundred people assume it.
*00:03*
I don't know.
*00:03*
Like and when you have nothing going on, you have nothing going on.
*00:03*
Oh that's would also be really?
*00:03*
I feel like it's forwards at this point to uh Da Vinci.
*00:03*
Don't even get me started on that.
*00:03*
The issue is the fusion page, which is supposed to be like its after effects, d looks nothing like After Effects.
*00:03*
I mean the performance is great for those products in in that space.
*00:03*
Uh so if if Apple were to be like, hey we're doing this also we have, you know, Steam and all these things are built are able to run everything perfectly.
*00:03*
Yeah, you can do a perfect n playthrough of that game and never
*00:03*
Right?
*00:03*
Like that's her.
*00:03*
That's a good Twitter thing.
*00:03*
I see I did I did a similar thing for uh Alex O'Neill.
*00:03*
Bruh.
*00:03*
It was awesome.
*00:03*
Maybe you should play the first one.
*00:03*
You were like, why is this not like Arkham City?
*00:03*
He feels like it's a fake thing that you'd see in the background of Mac Malcolm in the middle, which I kind of agree.
*00:03*
Oh, it's a good time.
*00:03*
You know, the way that that someone would talk about a certain product or not talk about it and you're reading between the lines and just getting all
*00:03*
Would this have been the norm or did the circumstances of the world
*00:03*
You've gotta be kidding me.
*00:03*
Like I know my girlfriend, she used to do uh sonic fanfiction when she was a little kid.
*00:03*
And then and then now he has to let go and let Michael uh uh Michael B.
*00:03*
They announced at a TV show for Skull and Bones.
*00:03*
Of course, like do it like blacklist where you're able to like but like I think that the blacklist is a lot more linear than
*00:03*
Like I'm I'm Are you?
*00:03*
I I'm I'm I'm ruined because it's kinda funny.
*00:03*
I needed it up the next day.
*00:04*
They are not worth $5,000.
*00:04*
They make they make incredible stuff.
*00:04*
Yeah, it's a tr I I think that's honestly like uh if anything is coming out of this whole I'm not again, I'm not like the biggest like
*00:04*
You know what I mean?
*00:04*
Like there I think single they just they just don't.
*00:04*
That's what I hear from a lot of people.
*00:04*
I was trying to very, very nicely.
*00:04*
She's one of them, yes.
*00:04*
Yeah.
*00:04*
Who won?
*00:04*
So look out for that.
*00:04*
I yeah, I don't know.
*00:04*
Yeah, no, he actually is.
*00:04*
Yep.
*00:04*
Right?
*00:04*
And he's like taking down people and then takes it off.
*00:04*
It's just so stup like it's it's a great era in they've never they've never lost that charm.
*00:04*
I love a good video game moment in TV.
*00:04*
You were I try to piece together what like I I
*00:04*
Yes, I love Uncharted too.
*00:04*
It might be a bad game.
*00:04*
I mean yeah, we all did.
*00:04*
Like it's just like, yeah.
*00:04*
A hundred percent.
*00:04*
Press save and if you have like let's say you have an issue with something, like I I was I was editing something today where I had a bunch of moving hands that I was animating.
*00:04*
Yeah, it's uh it's it's it it's interesting.
*00:04*
There's ten there's dozens of us.
*00:04*
Why is he a character in Rainbow Six Siege?
*00:04*
Yeah.
*00:04*
Yeah, so for me, I have a bunch of different options, right?
*00:04*
And that's that's my project.
*00:04*
I n the crew, what was the other ghost protocol
*00:04*
Like I'll take it.
*00:04*
Uh and also going to the Sopranos after that, which is very funny.
*00:04*
So I was like, alright, I gotta buy it now.
*00:04*
See, that's the thing, that blessing in the last episode.
*00:04*
Um it's it's interesting because him uh him Tim and I
*00:04*
I was like, up, I'm never doing this again.
*00:04*
Logan Logan went to E3, uh was was this two or three years ago, and all of the E3 information
*00:04*
I'd be like, why don't you just go?
*00:04*
Yeah, yeah, you can.
*00:04*
So are you saying that Michael Ironside is in a cave somewhere?
*00:04*
He can sit in a chair and read.
*00:04*
I think that was the ring.
*00:04*
Interesting.
*00:04*
Are these cards like valuable?
*00:04*
Played the first hour of uh the Lost Legacy, never went back to it, played literally maybe 20 minutes of Friday the 13th, never played it again.
*00:04*
She was bad mouthing her the entire game.
*00:04*
Oh that's solid.
*00:04*
Yeah.
*00:04*
I I do have a I do have a sw I do have the game.
*00:04*
Roger.
*00:04*
I I don't want to hold you up anymore.
*00:04*
And I had a list of all these different ideas.
*00:04*
So uh one hurdle I do know in your job, because you complain about it all the time.
*00:04*
It totally should.
*00:04*
Uh I also feel like Sony Vegas is just weird.
*00:04*
Little little Greg came out in you there.
*00:04*
So it's it's it's just a frustrating experience and I I I've I do unironically like for if we're not talking memes like
*00:04*
She's like, really?
*00:04*
Um yeah, and yeah, that yeah, there was a ton of weird and there's also there's also um
*00:04*
You've got Sephiroth.
*00:04*
Um for the Christ.
*00:04*
So then she she cared about those characters, but then she felt like, oh like, I don't care about this kid and everything.
*00:04*
Come on.
*00:04*
Bye-bye.
*00:04*
You just you work remotely.
*00:04*
Like and that is the most frustrating thing about this
*00:04*
Like they have these updates where it's like, okay, well now it's gonna use your your Nvidia graphics card.
*00:04*
Jesus.
*00:04*
And then you have like a flashback mission where it's like, oh, like he dealt with these people already.
*00:04*
It's there's some gameplay design things from that era that we don't need anymore.
*00:04*
Now you're now you're an illegal boy.
*00:04*
She's like, but it's called Quest for Booty.
*00:04*
I mean it's it's it's uh it's uh I feel like that's even more official like having it in writing.
*00:04*
No, I've I've I've been working with people on the West Coast f uh
*00:04*
You did something where it was just like I just like dot dot dot.
*00:04*
I can't tell you how many di tweets I see about uh how nervous people get when they export in Premiere.
*00:04*
He's scrubbing through real time 4K thirty.
*00:04*
Pandora Mormon.
*00:04*
And I'm I'm very fortunate and and blessed to, you know, have been in that situation.
*00:04*
Sure.
*00:04*
So it's like I I think I'm gonna try it out and I think it's she's probably gonna end up liking it, but it's still like I think it's gonna be a little bit of an uphill battle.
*00:04*
She said, uh why is Ratchet why is there a Ratchet and Clint game called
*00:04*
It was a good time.
*00:04*
See, I when you said when you said super smart guy, I thought you said super short guy.
*00:04*
Uh I've had uh Meeting in the Middle.
*00:04*
Pretend that you don't know, I guess.
*00:04*
I would I would actually never have pegged that for Tim.
*00:04*
Um and I it's it's interesting um as someone that hasn't just been on the outside looking in or even when I was freelancing it was very much like
*00:04*
Like it was a lot of that those conversations of less breaking away, like having the conversation, trying to figure out what to do.
*00:04*
It's I actually we just hired a new team member and he
*00:04*
If you if you throw in, you know, uh a a one percent uh opacity image of Sam Fisher in there, you know what I mean, it's a good time for you then
*00:04*
There's a bunch, yeah.
*00:04*
Holy s I thought Abby's Abby's like at 450.
*00:04*
Sure, yeah.
*00:04*
Like he's not a general but it's a captain.
*00:04*
Um for me at least.
*00:04*
And it's ridiculous.
*00:04*
Yeah, yeah.
*00:04*
Yes, absolut It's definitely like this is ha this has happened before, you know.
*00:04*
But then one day, I'm over here playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 remake campaign, and I see that they have SpongeBob, Battle for Bikini Bottom, early.
*00:04*
Uncharted one felt like thirty hours, so I don't know what you're talking about.
*00:04*
I think that's a good thing.
*00:04*
Come on guys.
*00:04*
And Blessing, super smart guy.
*00:04*
Are you still using Resolve or are you back in the premiere boat?
*00:04*
Like everyone knows Adobe.
*00:04*
I just saw Paper Mario and was like, it's back and then it comes out.
*00:04*
Oh boy.
*00:04*
A thousand hours of Uncharted.
*00:04*
And I think it was just such a pure moment, but it was also like
*00:04*
Some people I mean of course it's very easy.
*00:04*
Those screens are ugly looking.
*00:04*
That's exactly how I feel.
*00:04*
Yeah, Rip LastPass.
*00:04*
Anyone.
*00:04*
So their names uh and everyone figured out who they were and everything, and then after that they ended up like
*00:04*
Like can't wait for uh
*00:04*
I think honestly like that could be a huge part of their next generation of like
*00:04*
Like I don't know.
*00:04*
Fortunately.
*00:04*
She was like, oh, she's like good looking, but like she didn't really care.
*00:04*
First one's a good time.
*00:04*
It's it's I'm excited for that and I think that Uncharted 4 was a great time.
*00:04*
Really uh I I love the editing mostly because I know it's you and I just like
*00:04*
I think in a creative environment, which specifically is what you
*00:04*
It's great.
*00:04*
Yeah, no, but like oh maybe this could be like his like Captain Ahab um
*00:04*
Give me a PSV in the game before it closes up.
*00:04*
There's they do some really great stuff uh in the beginning of that game that really
*00:04*
He's a father.
*00:04*
And she's like, Yeah, I'm good, I'm good.
*00:04*
Yeah, I guess, yeah.
*00:04*
Okay, then I won't.
*00:04*
It just doesn't feel right.
*00:04*
Yeah, I I still I was uh I was like looking through my old soft and I was like do I just sell this?
*00:04*
Um, but mostly uh watch party mode on um youtube.
*00:04*
Uh you can also watch the Blessing Show, which goes up every Thursday, every other Thursday, rather.
*00:04*
It's a series finale, season finale, not series finale
*00:04*
Just kinda like I think Alex O'Neill is there, just kinda the Rational Passions people, and I think Blessing kinda was there.
*00:04*
Great name.
*00:04*
Like you have a beef with somebody.
*00:04*
But then out of nowhere a ton of work started coming in.
*00:04*
Even half speed, I can't do it.
*00:04*
Yes, yes.
*00:04*
Because he was he was just became best price pre vice president.
*00:04*
Um good looking game.
*00:04*
I th I played the intro part of it and I just never played.
*00:04*
Hey, remember that time you pushed me?
*00:05*
Uh and that's something that I know that like we have a very open relationship at kinda funny and I've been able to um talk with Tim about, you know, possibly, you know, do I have to be in the office all the time?
*00:05*
Yeah, that's the that's the only uh I shouldn't say the only, sorry.
*00:05*
So I can't scrub through the timeline
*00:05*
And then you know, once they had that, they had her email address and they're like, Well, let's try it everywhere.
*00:05*
And like they And I'm sure this happened to a lot of more people on uh like more severe Logan is
*00:05*
He's greedy, you know what I mean?
*00:05*
Like that's easy.
*00:05*
Microsoft Store.
*00:05*
I was like, you know what, I I want I want something to play.
*00:05*
I mean, we I played in darkness and she sat there and watched the whole thing.
*00:05*
Um f uh fr I was gonna say Five Nights of Freddy's uh f uh five uh
*00:05*
It's just it's just a good deal.
*00:05*
That's good.
*00:05*
Golden Abyss.
*00:05*
I appreciate you saying that.
*00:05*
There's there's gotta be stuff has to be done, deals have to be made, things have to be produced on time.
*00:05*
You know what I mean?
*00:05*
But they're taking weird risks on like skull and bones and like game series that just didn't really work out or just making things that like
*00:05*
I love Kratos back when he was just a hack and slash grunt yell man.
*00:05*
Um but she's never sat down and watched them.
*00:05*
Wolfenstein.
*00:05*
They are expensive.
*00:05*
So if you you can put um basically a patch in the system through homebrew that recognizes the motion in the dual shock four.
*00:05*
Um and I I you can tell me if I am right or wrong about this, but you're you you live in New York.
*00:05*
I I think you know what?
*00:05*
I had to figure out a way to do it.
*00:05*
There's a bunch of those.
*00:05*
For sure.
*00:05*
Like we're always like looking for the next best thing in this house, like whatever's cheapest, whatever is
*00:05*
No, I I I it's it's it's frustrating at this point.
*00:05*
Yeah, that's the thing.
*00:05*
Yeah.
*00:05*
Cuddle up and then she's gonna have to squint her eyes.
*00:05*
Spoilers.
*00:05*
Like if you if you if you're listening to this right now, tweet never mind.
*00:05*
So it's it's just it's just a frustrating frustrating experience because I wanna love this software and I wanna love Adobe After Effects and Premiere and and all of it
*00:05*
Anyone that registered, yeah.
*00:05*
So like every single year I just message him at during a Ubisoft conference or something like that.
*00:05*
Second, they can't get Michael Ironside to voice a character and have someone else be the actor.
*00:05*
Like they have like the mocap for like uh Clone Wars, the newest season.
*00:05*
Two I mean
*00:05*
Um so very specific about the game she plays and uh for some reason when she was younger she was really obsessed with the
*00:05*
I was like, really?
*00:05*
Um it was or PS4.
*00:05*
Yeah, I never finished that one.
*00:05*
I mean with too many people listen to them.
*00:05*
Look out for that.
*00:05*
Po power.
*00:05*
Like he call he calls a ton of people.
*00:05*
Um it yeah it's just are you still on
*00:05*
But the wildest one for me was um uh do you do you know the YouTuber girlfriend reviews?
*00:05*
Let's watch it.
*00:05*
Just go to Mac.
*00:05*
And I'm not telling that I'm just not saying that I break apart my PC every week and like add things or move things.
*00:05*
Why not use that as the perfect segue um because
*00:05*
I honestly I think all of the PS4 Xbox One generation
*00:05*
Um, so it's it's been it's been a journey.
*00:05*
It's I'm just having fun with it as its own thing.
*00:05*
And you're like, that's from Uncharted.
*00:05*
It's on the Wii U.
*00:05*
Because you had done stuff for Borderlands and uh you were doing stuff with Retro Replay and Nolan North and stuff like
*00:05*
Sure.
*00:05*
I've I've watched a ton of tutorials, I've tried my hardest and I've gotten somewhere, but it's just
*00:05*
I feel I'm like I'm like I know it.
*00:05*
So I'm like the crazy old man that's like, don't install TikTok.
*00:05*
But like people's information was dumped
*00:05*
Yeah, no, that's a that's a really fantastic channel.
*00:05*
Anything and everything.
*00:05*
And or you can play that game totally conviction style and murder everybody.
*00:05*
Did you re- Yeah, yeah.
*00:05*
And I love the mu I I love how like just indulgent and weird it is.
*00:05*
I uh Well, but do you love Uncharted
*00:05*
They're like, who sent you?
*00:05*
It was like a summer vacation I'll never get again.
*00:05*
And I I s I do also think particularly just that ending
*00:05*
Um But it, you know, it hits.
*00:05*
What was that like?
*00:05*
So it was it was fun and then we did we eventually uh settled upon I think in December we started saying that I was freelancing.
*00:05*
That's how it works.
*00:05*
So yeah.
*00:05*
And I've I've walked through a bunch of my friends, like a friend of mine, um George, he
*00:05*
And it's it's kind of ridiculous that I have to use two different editing software in order to cobble together a video that
*00:05*
This is how it goes.
*00:05*
Like it's that that's the moment that always stood out to me.
*00:05*
Um I just thought that that was a really would be a really good place for uh
*00:05*
Um with with Leanza, but the issue is that I don't think she has
*00:05*
I there's there's a moment
*00:05*
Rift apart.
*00:05*
And that's like tough for me because I always feel I have the capitalism brain in in my head.
*00:05*
Like the the which is very which is uh which is nice 'cause I feel like that's also sometimes a a big factor in terms of people doing what I do and also just generally working from different code.
*00:05*
So like I feel like it's it's just the branding of having everything under this unified umbrella.
*00:05*
Thankfully, like her bank understood and gave her her money back.
*00:05*
Uh-huh.
*00:05*
All of the companies immediately came out and said, This is wildly untrue.
*00:05*
Were you playing it on PC?
*00:05*
Impossibly with one hand?
*00:05*
Um no yeah it's it that makes sense that you would totally be on a chart uh uh busting episode, but I was actually playing it with my significant other
*00:05*
It might be a bad game.
*00:05*
I just say mom and grop pop shops.
*00:05*
Actually I platted that that was the first time plattering that game
*00:05*
Yeah, it's really it's really tight, I think, in that direction.
*00:05*
net.
*00:05*
I feel so bad.
*00:05*
Well if she if if she has TikTok, then that means you basically have TikTok.
*00:05*
And like the performance out of these first laptops, which will be the slowest
*00:05*
I don't know.
*00:05*
I would just I would just spend that time playing uh Modern Warfare for like 32 days.
*00:05*
Like I I've known these people longer, but I do think there's an element of time
*00:05*
But like it didn't have the ground pound or anything like that.
*00:05*
Yeah, and it's it's something that I think that Tim has and and the whole team has been uh I shouldn't just call out Tim.
*00:05*
So especially with the Blessing Show, it's almost unfeasible for me to edit
*00:05*
But like I was editing the Blessing Show last week and I was dealing with a lot of uh long plays because we're doing it was on Souls games
*00:05*
Like so I've worked with Max for years in a professional sense, uh working editing videos on Max.
*00:05*
Like I could always do that and I just think about it.
*00:05*
No, they didn't.
*00:05*
I'm like, no, no one should jump you for Hello Kitty, but
*00:05*
Uh Belinda Garcia over at um Sledgehammer Games, she um messaged me after I couldn't get it and she said I got a few extra.
*00:05*
Yeah, Libertalia is and it's also I think it's the best uncharted story for not the characters at all, like for like the story of the thing that they're discovering.
*00:05*
And I realized she's not gonna get all of like the subtext and character relationships and things, but I just felt
*00:05*
Um so then we can say that, oh, I'm also helping out with this.
*00:05*
And then premiere I used a little bit in college because that's what uh our journalism program wanted us to use to make our videos and stuff.
*00:05*
I'm editing that and they're they're three hour streams.
*00:05*
These ugly screens are I like the holes.
*00:05*
And basically this article implied
*00:05*
And then you also think Bloomberg, that's where Jason Schreier writes and all these really great Nintendo leaks come out of.
*00:05*
I think that's like There's a lot of demand, I think, for that.
*00:05*
Division for sure.
*00:05*
Yeah, of course.
*00:05*
And then um I forgot what the other one was, but it was also oh uh oh it was also uh Horizon Zero Dawn.
*00:05*
Okay.
*00:05*
You know, you still have one more game though that you could play.
*00:05*
Uh I want if I get this wrong, they're gonna come after me.
*00:05*
Yeah.
*00:05*
So that was that that was a a really, really great moment.
*00:05*
And that's Yeah.
*00:05*
Um because I'm working with such amazing people, right?
*00:05*
I I thought After Effects was just so cool.
*00:05*
Like it's a pretty solid like if you're editing cutting together two clips together, like it works perfect.
*00:05*
I have a NVIDIA GeForce 2080 Super.
*00:05*
When I have to learn something new, it is especially when I'm coming from an application
*00:05*
There's a bunch of those.
*00:05*
Oh my god, they're amazing.
*00:05*
Yeah, I think that's exactly what should happen for for E3.
*00:05*
Like it's it's it's fine.
*00:05*
Like Skull and Bones, like that's a game that has like a ton of cancelled?
*00:05*
Yeah.
*00:05*
Yeah, and I just love the voice acting.
*00:05*
Sure, sure, sure.
*00:05*
And it's I so I always go back and forth with that.
*00:05*
Golden Abyss.
*00:05*
I don't even know if that game has online.
*00:05*
Yeah, exactly.
*00:05*
Uh but thank you so much, Roger, for joining me.
*00:05*
Exactly.
*00:06*
I don't think I was being that obvious, but maybe I was.
*00:06*
It's it's it's a it's a really bad relationship.
*00:06*
So on April Fool's Day
*00:06*
You know what I mean?
*00:06*
What a game.
*00:06*
Today actually.
*00:06*
She's been playing the Harvest Moon game or whatever, the story of seasons, I think it's called.
*00:06*
I didn't even play it in HD.
*00:06*
Like this these are the games that you like?
*00:06*
Yeah, exactly, right?
*00:06*
So I thought
*00:06*
It was Wolfenstein.
*00:06*
Remember they had a 3G model?
*00:06*
Uh you're already listening to the podcast, so you know uh to subscribe and stuff there.
*00:06*
Thank you.
*00:06*
Like and I think that that is also a big draw is that people know this brand, people know this company, and even though it's extremely janky
*00:06*
Yeah, little Greg came out and you there.
*00:06*
I don't have TikTok.
*00:06*
And it okay.
*00:06*
We're like always the people that if um if Verizon were to knock on our door for like the like I don't know if you've ever had this, like we're
*00:06*
And she's like, How are you?
*00:06*
Right?
*00:06*
Yeah.
*00:06*
And so I've actually I've I've hacked uh I hacked it.
*00:06*
And I so I upgraded I upgraded my PS3 hard drive to five hundred gigs and I just went on a download spree and then I got this T V thing
*00:06*
You know what I mean?
*00:06*
And honestly, uh both uh myself and Logan Moore, we both were talking about the hire because
*00:06*
Um it was and I just in the the day before the video starts to go up.
*00:06*
Like I feel like them creating like their own silicone in
*00:06*
Just like the Sam Fisher Splinter Cell movie.
*00:06*
That would have been so good.
*00:06*
And I think those are the only two ways in my mind that I I would be
*00:06*
You know what I mean?
*00:06*
Uh I just never played him.
*00:06*
And it's it's a real big doozy, and I will say
*00:06*
Dream.
*00:06*
Is your internet that great?
*00:06*
Do you uh is it a PC belt or something?
*00:06*
He's gonna want some money.
*00:06*
I mean what is that mobile game he's in now?
*00:06*
I've just been playing a lot of old games.
*00:06*
The Christ.
*00:06*
There's but there's something.
*00:06*
And we did uh
*00:06*
Sure.
*00:06*
Is that your what's your official job title?
*00:06*
You got Yeah.
*00:06*
You know, just it is a bunch of best friends.
*00:06*
What are you talking about?
*00:06*
I don't think they actually did.
*00:06*
Yeah, of course.
*00:06*
It is.
*00:06*
Because I traded in some stuff.
*00:06*
Um it before we announced it.
*00:06*
I mean I mean well I mean I it's in my head it was it was pretty easy, but they were like
*00:06*
So like they're I know they're still figuring out that model of like what what it's gonna be.
*00:06*
So um yeah.
*00:06*
Everything I've seen from people I've seen MKBHD talk about it a million times.
*00:06*
I feel like maybe if this was like a few years ago.
*00:06*
Which is the first of all, the dumbest excuse
*00:06*
Is that a PlayStation Vita?
*00:06*
Oh my gosh.
*00:06*
What?
*00:06*
We talked about this earlier, didn't I?
*00:06*
He said that he doesn't believe that honey smacks is a real
*00:06*
But y you're doing it full time.
*00:06*
His computer uh like disconnected from it, his internet went out just for a bit.
*00:06*
They make everything look pretty.
*00:06*
That's that sounds like unfeasible.
*00:06*
He uses Final Cut.
*00:06*
And I think that I'm gonna have to end up doing that extra step just because it's just not worth it, I feel like, anymore.
*00:06*
Put it on and Dunky came in and she's like, why is this man talking?
*00:06*
Yeah, exactly.
*00:06*
No, they didn't.
*00:06*
And she had no idea.
*00:06*
Anyway, it's
*00:06*
Like I think it's like this is all about storybook like like basically like movie tropes kind of and
*00:06*
You know what I mean?
*00:06*
I'm like, they're all c cheeky titles.
*00:06*
Yeah, rift apart.
*00:06*
It's something that I'm not really particularly the best at.
*00:06*
There's a way to do it, but it's not that neat.
*00:06*
And D Intel.
*00:06*
You can go to the store and buy a box that says Windows 10 on it.
*00:06*
The theater goes dark.
*00:06*
Like something yeah, something something something uh Splinter Cell esque
*00:06*
But I don't dig deeper than that.
*00:06*
Very negative towards this character as a as just being there.
*00:06*
Or the intro of Last of Us One.
*00:06*
You should hold that against you should hold that against him.
*00:06*
Uh th th that those two months were I wouldn't say rough, because I mean it's always exciting and fun, but it's it's it was rough in terms of like, oh first of all, I have Fortnite open.
*00:06*
I would I would think just
*00:06*
That remember the man Sam Fisher and the video game series Splinter Cell.
*00:06*
It was on sale on three sixty.
*00:06*
The there we go.
*00:06*
And it's tough to as someone she didn't play the game either.
*00:06*
Like i in hindsight
*00:06*
You feel like you need it, but then you're gonna do it.
*00:06*
No, I do because I bought I'm I'm the person that bought uh I said I wasn't gonna buy it uh All Stars.
*00:06*
Why like it it's it's so wild that they couldn't even add like the combat of Arkham City.
*00:06*
You know what I mean?
*00:06*
Yeah.
*00:06*
Um smokes.
*00:06*
Completely forgot about that
*00:06*
I think it honestly has to do with branding.
*00:06*
And I'm I'm asking this out of ignorance.
*00:06*
I'm like just use use this thing and take one day.
*00:06*
And no, not even that, like somehow they just get every single person that's ever watched a uh E three on Twitch.
*00:06*
Like I have a bunch of fans
*00:06*
I was I I just I just see it and I'm like, oh wow, it's uh okay, I'm good.
*00:06*
There's a mobile version of it where it was like I played it.
*00:06*
Uh I uh the Twitter
*00:06*
It uh naming things is always the hardest, you know?
*00:06*
I started crying in front of the girl I liked?
*00:06*
I did this, this, and this and up
*00:06*
And remember that was a that was a goal, a plan a year ago or something.
*00:06*
Jeez two of those six K displays.
*00:06*
Like like they they all pop up and then they're definitely stealing images in your faces and everything like that.
*00:06*
Um Yeah.
*00:06*
That's how you have to do it.
*00:06*
It's so interesting to me though, because it's like
*00:06*
Yeah, but there's a something like that.
*00:06*
Figure it out.
*00:06*
She plays like um she's a big crossing fan.
*00:06*
You're out here breaking things.
*00:06*
He calls you about anything, you know what I mean?
*00:06*
And so it's nice to have like that um in the household at least, like have that like
*00:06*
So I just try not to wake California people up if I don't have to.
*00:06*
Um so there's there's I feel like it's very simple in the early stages, but then once you start getting advanced
*00:06*
Like compared to my bad boy of a PC.
*00:06*
Like it's not the pro level
*00:06*
Like I know that I could like just put something in at 1% opacity and no one will ever notice it.
*00:06*
I'm like, all right, it doesn't really pan off, but sure.
*00:06*
That would have been good actually.
*00:06*
They had a launch game.
*00:06*
So I think I might I might think I might replay that.
*00:06*
But she never played them, she would only watch them, and she had no idea
*00:06*
The pinnacle of gaming Tomb Raider.
*00:06*
He's hungry.
*00:06*
I was like, oh sorry.
*00:06*
It was w for some reason I was just like I want video games and then I bought it it was right when the game came out and then
*00:06*
I mean I got two, I guess.
*00:06*
Oh I have the game.
*00:06*
I remember they were selling them for like a ten dollars when they when they after one.
*00:06*
Dream.
*00:06*
Which I feel like is most of Yeah, most most vague, but also when you look at it on a response, you're like, uh sounds
*00:06*
Do you not feel the same level of stress I do?
*00:06*
Um the I can I can get to details.
*00:06*
Uh and in that video, in that course, he
*00:06*
I've been a OnePassword uh uh happy one password subscriber for years now.
*00:06*
When you're like making these things like of course I'm gonna make the same password, like who do I care?
*00:06*
And so
*00:06*
It's not Sam Fisher, it's Michael B.
*00:06*
My thing is that like
*00:06*
Specifically TV, like
*00:06*
She's like, I don't understand why anyone it took us a long time to get and we only see each other once a week
*00:06*
And then this one guy was like, yep, we have Persona 5.
*00:06*
Um you know the the penitent thief.
*00:06*
I like it.
*00:06*
Knows what he's talking about, gets into it, has interesting points and ideas, and then sometimes
*00:06*
I think he's my height.
*00:06*
It would have to be on
*00:07*
And I
*00:07*
Your pin number?
*00:07*
So like I think that's gonna maybe push uh them to have some really good innovation in terms of like the
*00:07*
Not beyond two souls, uh beyond good and evil.
*00:07*
And then w
*00:07*
Ah, I can imagine.
*00:07*
What a game Man, that's a great game.
*00:07*
Um But then Abby finally used them.
*00:07*
Yeah, that that that's where the game gets really good.
*00:07*
And they said, Yep.
*00:07*
Which South Park though
*00:07*
How do you explain it?
*00:07*
I've I've met Tim once.
*00:07*
I'm I'm pretty much back in the premiere boat, sadly.
*00:07*
Uh the did you watch their April Fools video?
*00:07*
Yes, basically.
*00:07*
No, PlayStation.
*00:07*
Yes, yeah.
*00:07*
Forgot about how uh it's a good looking game.
*00:07*
He's like
*00:07*
It was it was a PS4 game.
*00:07*
Like are you telling me a game called
*00:07*
Oh, that is cool.
*00:07*
Like all these people listen to like Xcast and things like that.
*00:07*
Yeah No, it's it's it's
*00:07*
Like I would I would put it in and then there was just a point where Premier just
*00:07*
Don't you remember?
*00:07*
I mean that in a slightly joking way but a serious way too.
*00:07*
But I think that's that's that's a while from now.
*00:07*
I think did you ever play the Sly Cooper games?
*00:07*
Yeah, that's like the basis of it.
*00:07*
You need to go to Target.
*00:07*
So you c you come to her and you're like, hey.
*00:07*
I'm gonna break I'm gonna break I'm gonna break out a PlayStation TV.
*00:07*
Smart.
*00:07*
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah that was uh which I appreciated.
*00:07*
Uh so uh no it but i it's i it's interesting because I I really I do love the idea of these companies
*00:07*
Because it's it's like for me it's like either or.
*00:07*
I recently I recently found out there were like
*00:07*
So like that's like it's
*00:07*
I I I I go back and forth on it.
*00:07*
Like I was I was like, look at these scan lines on Nathan Drake.
*00:07*
This is not a crucifix.
*00:07*
But I also had a lot of mixed
*00:07*
And I didn't really know how any of that worked.
*00:07*
Um so yeah, it's it's it's interesting and it's it's definitely um
*00:07*
Okay, that's weird.
*00:07*
I'm I'm very much of the I
*00:07*
I'm curious how that'll translate over time in general.
*00:07*
It doesn't look like him?
*00:07*
I think it was just it the website glitched and then people actually got it afterwards.
*00:07*
And so being able to play as their daughter, it just
*00:07*
Well into the Nexus.
*00:07*
Yeah, sure.
*00:07*
Let's say it's a rendering issue or it's a clip that just won't go together for some reason.
*00:07*
And especially someone I I watch all the time.
*00:07*
But it was it it's it was just unfortunate when that happened.
*00:07*
Like China was siphoning Yeah, exactly.
*00:07*
And like if there was evidence of physical chips on servers somewhere, like especially after a story like that came out.
*00:07*
We have the vision.
*00:07*
Uh I I think more honestly, like the the game that I would want is more in the vein of like a Metal Girl Salad Five
*00:07*
I'm like, oh
*00:07*
No
*00:07*
So then randomly it seems like there's just a random letter in the middle that's just
*00:07*
And it's it's just it's just great.
*00:07*
Oh gosh, holy folks.
*00:07*
And like like all these all these moments that I knew and like it's it's so funny replaying these games because
*00:07*
Yeah.
*00:07*
She's done The Last of Us and part two.
*00:07*
And I was like, you know what?
*00:07*
It kills you.
*00:07*
I was like, I did, I touched her.
*00:07*
Dream.
*00:07*
They add like a closed captioning system, which is great.
*00:07*
I I've heard differently though.
*00:07*
Jordan do it.
*00:07*
Breakpoint.
*00:07*
No, he couldn't play God of War Ascension.
*00:07*
I thought that was impressive.
*00:07*
Uh
*00:07*
Like that's not the issue.
*00:07*
She works in um the banking sector.
*00:07*
That that's definitely not the only positive, but it is it is a very big positive.
*00:07*
Every cent, especially when you compare it to the
*00:07*
I've tried Mac for years.
*00:07*
Um there's not a lot of high energy in here's how you handle a
*00:07*
It's
*00:07*
Um I um he it was his birthday and uh um persona five the first uh like the first
*00:07*
I use Final Cut.
*00:07*
So yeah.
*00:07*
No, I've I've seen like its interface on in videos.
*00:07*
I I I get I get it.
*00:07*
It's wild.
*00:07*
Like I I like I didn't not do any of that.
*00:07*
Like thirty years go by and we're just like, whatever happened to my game.
*00:07*
And you were like, hold up a minute.
*00:07*
She's like, yeah, it's so crazy.
*00:07*
And I see them posted on Facebook and
*00:07*
Were you the guy on the phone?
*00:07*
I never played it.
*00:07*
I own the game.
*00:07*
I don't think it does.
*00:07*
Yeah, dude, I had weird stuff.
*00:07*
I we announced it in January.
*00:07*
Yeah.
*00:07*
And that's kind of what was happening for me for a long period of time.
*00:07*
Da Vinci is fine for like 1080p, 60 FPS, doesn't matter.
*00:07*
It was not that big of a deal.
*00:07*
It's just it's just fantastic.
*00:07*
And that's why I have Android.
*00:07*
Rip.
*00:07*
A lot of old games recently.
*00:07*
Beyond that, there's you can be
*00:07*
And I always thought it was a bigger moment to the point where I was like, you
*00:07*
I was like, oh wait, that's not also I ruined the moment because I pressed the grenade button.
*00:07*
Yeah.
*00:07*
See, I've had my fair share.
*00:07*
When you're done with it, if you follow up with me, I'll tell you about it.
*00:07*
Yeah.
*00:07*
No one intended it to be played this way.
*00:07*
Exactly.
*00:07*
He's like five'9-ish.
*00:07*
Um
*00:07*
Yeah.
*00:07*
I got the I got the the card game.
*00:07*
But I think Captain Crunch won.
*00:07*
Or maybe Snapcrackle Punch.
*00:07*
I mean these you put videos out or the kind of funny when I say they puts videos out every day.
*00:07*
Like I'm right.
*00:07*
So the three hour difference really No, yeah, the three hour difference is fine.
*00:07*
This is what she sounds like every day.
*00:07*
So it's like
*00:07*
Like you couldn't like press like um R and Y to like like take someone down, you just have to
*00:07*
This is on the Wii U, the best system.
*00:07*
I know, right?
*00:08*
Well yeah, which is which is I think great honestly.
*00:08*
And uh maybe one day, you know what I mean, look up for kinda funny content.
*00:08*
Yes.
*00:08*
They need to put us in the room.
*00:08*
Um Rip.
*00:08*
So see so you're like one you said a lot of people don't have too much time on your their hands.
*00:08*
Yeah, fair.
*00:08*
Yes, let me learn about the la la lu la lo and w uh nano machines.
*00:08*
Um but yeah, that's a video content producer.
*00:08*
It's very very fast and loose sometimes.
*00:08*
She was like, Yep.
*00:08*
Like you can't like you can go out and buy Windows ten
*00:08*
Oh my gosh, I've never thought of this.
*00:08*
Oh yeah, that's what they have Tom World.
*00:08*
Xbox Live Network.
*00:08*
And I called my wife and said, I know I already have two copies of this game pre-ordered and the PS4, but can I buy it early?
*00:08*
Like everyone liked it.
*00:08*
I probably was
*00:08*
I have all the games.
*00:08*
And then also I'm biased 'cause it's the first actually it's the second PS3 game I ever played.
*00:08*
Unstable footing.
*00:08*
Um but yeah, no, that's-reloaded his save from two hours prior and you're like, come on.
*00:08*
Yeah.
*00:08*
And like that hits me every time.
*00:08*
Can we afford this?
*00:08*
Thank you for having me on.
*00:08*
No more.
*00:08*
That's a good idea for a podcast though.
*00:08*
Wildly different.
*00:08*
I think that's exactly what should happen.
*00:08*
Yeah, Breakpoint.
*00:08*
You're a real gamer right there.
*00:08*
And so I literally
*00:08*
Like that could have just been a cutscene.
*00:08*
Yeah.
*00:08*
Anyway, this time I've got my buddy Roger Picorney with me.
*00:08*
Which I appreciate it.
*00:08*
You can make I can make little particles fly out of my fingers.
*00:08*
Yeah Oh the old those are ugly.
*00:08*
They're they're they're switching from Intel.
*00:08*
The green comes up in the
*00:08*
He's in the man of the ear.
*00:08*
Look at um Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order.
*00:08*
It was a dual launch on three and four.
*00:08*
And so if you you so he helped me
*00:08*
com slash kind of funny games
*00:08*
I was gonna say tweet a blessing saying he's short, but that's a crazy thing to tell someone to tweet to.
*00:08*
Especially at five in the morning.
*00:08*
So I was like, you know what, I'm just gonna rip I know a few people.
*00:08*
He's working very hard.
*00:08*
No, but if I see like you know what I mean if we if we do like the the uh
*00:08*
It's
*00:08*
So like it's a lot of like weird like like kids games that I go straight into the Sopranos
*00:08*
So it's great.
*00:08*
And I was like, wow, we're going somewhere with this.
*00:08*
So that's that's Roger's doing.
*00:08*
I'm working with people that I love, that I that I want to learn from, that I wanna just hang out with
*00:08*
And ended up doing it and I had to figure out this weird uh way to get after effects and
*00:08*
He makes the best tech videos on the internet, I think.
*00:08*
But it's it's interesting because
*00:08*
It's a you know, it's taking stuff from you.
*00:08*
Like, you know, it was all fine.
*00:08*
For sure.
*00:08*
And I was like, I don't know.
*00:08*
So like I'm I'm very easy to be swindled through FOMO.
*00:08*
I'm just trying to upgrade the capability.
*00:08*
Like not everything, but like if something's happening, like he'd much rather call you up and and ask you, you know.
*00:08*
Yeah, a little bit, yeah.
*00:08*
It's the issue of
*00:08*
I feel like a part of that has to just be
*00:08*
Like I feel like that should be the first
*00:08*
I'm gonna tell her after this, I'm gonna tell after this she's gonna be her jaw's gonna drop.
*00:08*
You know, it's a little Greg in everybody.
*00:08*
And so I am curious how that
*00:08*
They have mocap where they brought in uh Ray Fisher, uh another Fisher
*00:08*
Like when he was like 20 something.
*00:08*
Oh I did not know it was um yeah, cause that correctly.
*00:08*
I can imagine.
*00:08*
But just like the the heart of it.
*00:08*
I know it's COVID times, but you need to pick up these fun little cards, these Hello Kitty cards for me
*00:08*
It's funny, actually.
*00:08*
Okay, sorry.
*00:08*
They they kinda cleaned it up later.
*00:08*
Um it's yeah, since our November, I think that's how
*00:08*
Yeah.
*00:08*
Uh yeah.
*00:08*
Fine.
*00:08*
I've never worried about an export.
*00:08*
I but she uses it for her business.
*00:08*
Doesn't look like him?
*00:08*
Screw it.
*00:08*
She was a trooper.
*00:08*
Never played it.
*00:08*
No, I mean it's
*00:08*
Besides, it's like you clearly your style and your your editing comes through the videos immediately.
*00:08*
If I want to get to the nerdy stuff.
*00:08*
But
*00:08*
I get it's probably better, but I'm just gonna I'm just gonna stick with my old thing and it's annoying because that old thing
*00:08*
Like it just has that heart.
*00:08*
Yeah, I mean But like Greg, this is your fault.
*00:08*
I don't like calling people, so but
*00:08*
Okay, yeah, yeah.
*00:08*
But anyway.
*00:08*
It's like, can I reserve a copy right now?
*00:08*
You weren't the guy on the phone, it was very sus, but he got the copy.
*00:08*
Everyone liked it.
*00:08*
I was working there since November second, I believe.
*00:08*
Like it was it was um it's it it was mostly through Tim um and him and I call each other a lot.
*00:08*
But I was j I'm just saying like in terms of like the
*00:08*
You never know.
*00:08*
I have like all the games, like all the new games that have come out, I have them, but I just have been playing Kingdom Hearts for some reason.
*00:08*
Because they could have shown
*00:08*
So I n immediately, you know, the the Kind of Funny Best Friend community is very on top of things.
*00:09*
I mean freelance working from home
*00:09*
No, I appreciate it.
*00:09*
I'm gonna make a proxy that is 480p
*00:09*
Come on.
*00:09*
Um so
*00:09*
Yeah, so I go from the Sopranos uh or t to Kingdom Hearts and vice versa all the time
*00:09*
Sure.
*00:09*
And it's
*00:09*
Like I like I don't use it.
*00:09*
Up your arsenal.
*00:09*
I really appreciate it.
*00:09*
Like if I go on there and I say like anything wrong about an Xbox thing, like I will be murdered
*00:09*
Yeah.
*00:09*
That's what they always say.
*00:09*
It was a moment that we've been we've been talking about for years, ever since I was like almost like seventeen
*00:09*
Yeah.
*00:09*
You know what I mean?
*00:09*
Yeah, but it's it's
*00:09*
Um
*00:09*
Like I I just don't understand how it existed and was
*00:09*
Yeah, exactly.
*00:09*
I'm like, that's uncharted.
*00:09*
But like five ten.
*00:09*
I mean as a f as someone that has done freelance in the past uh
*00:09*
Like how how can you do
*00:09*
Really?
*00:09*
I believe so.
*00:09*
So when the game came out, obviously all I I was also
*00:09*
Sure, sure.
*00:09*
It's a beefy it's a beefy PC, right?
*00:09*
I was like, let me guess it's the same as every single else th other thing you do?
*00:09*
We've, you know, looked at like and they've never retracted or made a follow up statement or anything.
*00:09*
I mean I I can't do that with my Android but I like being able to do it with my OS at least
*00:09*
And I was like, oh
*00:09*
He turned it on and then he couldn't go online so then he turned it off and played the multiplayer.
*00:09*
It was a very late PS3 game.
*00:09*
You know what I mean?
*00:09*
And then she we played Uncharted Uncharted 1 was a rough time.
*00:09*
I'm gonna find him an early copy of this game.
*00:09*
It's good you played.
*00:09*
But uh seriously, you're you're in for a treat for Lost Legacy.
*00:09*
I think I've gotten her around to it because I was like
*00:09*
It's just it's and it's just the problem is it's just because of after effects
*00:09*
He's hitting he's ri hit and record and press and play in the background.
*00:09*
Come on.
*00:09*
Take one day out of your life and you will never have this problem ever again.
*00:09*
Boyfriend, boyfriend, boyfriend
*00:09*
So why back to video editing really quick.
*00:09*
So it's um
*00:09*
Wildlands was the one that people like.
*00:09*
Like
*00:09*
I had a buddy help me.
*00:09*
It's just an awful video game and it it just makes me angry every time I played it as a kid, because I was youngish.
*00:09*
Uh-oh.
*00:09*
And this has been the first time
*00:09*
I'm because he's awesome.
*00:09*
I've worked on every school every school that I've ever been to has had Macs.
*00:09*
Which I can watch the uh trailer for on my GameCube copy of
*00:09*
I used to play it on my dad's phone.
*00:09*
And like it's like so strange.
*00:09*
It's just ridiculous.
*00:09*
I'm just like well next next time, next time we'll figure it out
*00:09*
Jordan.
*00:09*
But um
*00:09*
But then we finally got to two and then she sorta got it, and then three
*00:09*
Like the fact that you played it adds so much to it.
*00:09*
We did um
*00:09*
Uh which was which was kind of its own hell in and itself.
*00:09*
Yeah, it's just that's that's pretty much the
*00:09*
Exactly.
*00:09*
It's gonna have the fastest renders in the world.
*00:09*
So like and like seeing the fact that he's able to just scrub through on
*00:09*
So just it's uh yeah, you're screwed.
*00:09*
That was
*00:09*
So it is sticking with my PC for now.
*00:09*
Yeah.
*00:09*
It's like it's like floating around.
*00:09*
Um
*00:09*
Lanza liked it a lot.
*00:09*
Bring together like your childhood bullies
*00:09*
But when it comes to business, when it comes to like
*00:09*
There's no way to just do what you need to do in After Effects and then
*00:09*
I was just like, oh boy.
*00:09*
I'm not saying that
*00:09*
I have all the games.
*00:09*
It's the basically Harvest Moon.
*00:09*
But
*00:09*
Yeah.
*00:09*
And I every time I tweet about it, I I look out for it.
*00:09*
Yeah.
*00:09*
But then their after effects side of things is just like
*00:09*
Doesn't
*00:09*
Yeah.
*00:09*
They're all trying to they're trying to click their buttons.
*00:09*
Exactly.
*00:09*
This has been a real treat treat.
*00:09*
Which was um which is very very sweet and um
*00:09*
You know what I mean?
*00:09*
And then sometimes those experts take a while and then if you notice a mistake then you gotta export it again.
*00:09*
Yeah, no, and I I feel like if I was not myself
*00:09*
Exactly.
*00:09*
You know, and someday they're gonna shut the Wii U store off too.
*00:09*
Go in commando.
*00:09*
It's great.
*00:09*
So the next episode is going to be uh the fifteenth.
*00:09*
Uh clearly he's doing it
*00:10*
Oh boy.
*00:10*
Oh, that's awesome.
*00:10*
It is oh it's too bad
*00:10*
Um, but they have to listen this far to find out.
*00:10*
Who would you go against Captain Crunch?
*00:10*
But that is a this is a run, for sure.
*00:10*
It's still the plan.
*00:10*
I played none of those games
*00:10*
Doesn't it suck?
*00:10*
And you can follow me on Twitter at Max Roberts.
*00:10*
And you just have these notes and you're like, these will be great.
*00:10*
I appreciate that you kept it you kept it going without saying anything.
*00:10*
I want to get into details.
*00:10*
I feel like you
*00:10*
No, he's um I watched recently
*00:10*
Their donkey video?
*00:10*
Like w never forget.
*00:10*
Something creepy and terrifying.
*00:10*
I just I just like to be able to
*00:10*
And it's it's
*00:10*
And he's the new Sam Fisher.
*00:10*
I've been freaking out about that.
*00:10*
You finished that game too in a week?
*00:10*
But like So then we're all three of us about the same height
*00:10*
Oh good.
*00:10*
Like I feel like they could do that.
*00:10*
Uh come on, this is what you're doing now.
*00:10*
Never played it.
*00:10*
You know what I mean?
*00:10*
Well I'm sorry.
*00:10*
Yes.
*00:10*
And the fact that n like almost nothing happened to them because of that, like is wild.
*00:10*
Like having like these competitors to Intel and AMD is is always good.
*00:10*
That's how you're talking about.
*00:10*
It's finally about that and I've I've just had an itch to go back.
*00:10*
Yeah.
*00:10*
They were.
*00:10*
Tools of destruction.
*00:10*
Exactly.
*00:10*
You know what I mean?
*00:10*
They added that into this game.
*00:10*
So I guess I guess I got affirmed on PS4.
*00:10*
Call the police.
*00:10*
Yeah, splinters out.
*00:10*
And so
*00:10*
And they got into her bank.
*00:10*
Look at Siege, look at um
*00:10*
Now he's a nice father.
*00:10*
I'm not out here cheating.
*00:10*
It's just
*00:10*
Like I was I was getting like
*00:10*
Like I I would he was like basically like
*00:10*
Yeah, no, for sure.
*00:10*
It's it's for sure still is the plan.
*00:10*
Like whatever you need to do and it has a very basic like a very good learning curve I feel like.
*00:10*
But I've never played with it.
*00:10*
Uh she's like a fitness trainer.
*00:10*
And then like it's also like
*00:10*
I don't have anything to hide or who wants to hack into my account and then it
*00:10*
I mean Hitman 3 made back its money in the first day of release, like
*00:10*
Breakpoint one that sucks, right?
*00:10*
Oh boy.
*00:10*
It's it's a very beefy.
*00:10*
Oh yeah yeah those ones yeah uh yeah the Mac one looks beautiful.
*00:10*
Yeah, I mean well I I mean I like it.
*00:10*
You're real.
*00:10*
Yeah, that is true, that is true, that's true, I could have a few people
*00:10*
Yeah.
*00:10*
There was a clearance just black
*00:10*
Like I'm not never
*00:10*
Yeah, this is your fault.
*00:10*
I was like, Hi, bye.
*00:10*
com slash
*00:10*
It's so good.
*00:10*
And
*00:10*
You might see s you might see some uh Sam Fisher's in the middle of a podcast one day.
*00:10*
So that was a pretty big L on my on my side
*00:10*
Like real quick.
*00:10*
You can't just
*00:10*
Don't worry about it.
*00:11*
Yeah, to their ARM processors.
*00:11*
He's too old to do the the mo cap
*00:11*
Yeah.
*00:11*
I'm good.
*00:11*
Call in the police.
*00:11*
Like it's just so basic.
*00:11*
I'm so jealous.
*00:11*
I mean I'm more s mostly on I ha I feel like this is pretentious to say it, but I'm like
*00:11*
But it's it that's like actually honestly in terms of
*00:11*
Black Up uh Blacklist did did it really well too.
*00:11*
And
*00:11*
Call of Duty.
*00:11*
We did have a little bit of a different opinion opinion on the ending.
*00:11*
I have uh very fast internet, everything's
*00:11*
Sure.
*00:11*
Yeah.
*00:11*
Like
*00:11*
I
*00:11*
And to like when you know, we just started we actually just got to
*00:11*
There's just it's great.
*00:11*
You're not real.
*00:11*
So when I
*00:11*
So anyway
*00:11*
I had like almost nothing going on.
*00:11*
You know, very basic
*00:11*
Yeah, that's always fun.
*00:11*
Um that was
*00:11*
I haven't uh podcasted in a while like this, so this is
*00:11*
Yeah.
*00:11*
Oh my gosh.
*00:11*
Give it three seconds, it'll do an auto cachet, perfect, it's done.
*00:11*
Yeah, n exactly.
*00:11*
Warriors Fallen Order too.
*00:11*
Like it's not yeah it's apparently making an
*00:11*
Do you have one?
*00:11*
Yeah.
*00:11*
Yeah.
*00:11*
Like really when you put
*00:11*
Um
*00:11*
And I I it's
*00:11*
I know.
*00:11*
And then they're and granted they're two separate
*00:11*
And he's the new Sam Fisher.
*00:11*
You can PC game as well pretty well.
*00:11*
But it just feels so rich and

*00:12*
Which they won't.
*00:12*
So how
*00:12*
So him and I were always in contact.
