0:00 THEME OF SLAYER; KOREAN

0:36 welcome to the castle super trying to fix audio issues cast~! Woolie has put a new noise gate on the livestream side, so hopefully he’s not peaking as much. You wont notice it if you’re hearing it on the recording.

 - 1:53 Pat prefers the compressor and limiter over the noise gate. Seems woolie’s settings may be too aggressive.

 - 2:25 this is why you do a test stream at 2 am. And the differences between woolie’s laughs.  

3:41 it's been an eventful week. There’s a lot going on. Let’s talk about joker 2 and megalopolis first.Woolie wants to experience jonkleropolis.

 - 5:13 Pat going off the temperature. On jonkler 2: it's a musical, first off, and second off the movie is terrible even without the musical parts.joaquin phoenix and Lady gaga at the premiere, people reading their lips

 - 7:06 its doing worse than morbius. MORBIUS SWEEP.

 - 7:54 wanting to see an old man’s fever dream with megalopolis. And the insane hubris of putting unseen 9/11 footage in your movie. The height of filmmaking excess.  

 - - 10:13 eyes wide shut with kubrick. Appreciating megalopolis over things like avatar.

 - 11:17 the idea of barbenheimer style double features. And Pat walking out of theaters going “that was dogshit.”

WEEK OF THE BEAST LORDS

WOOLIE

12:35 Woolie went to a wedding. It was fun.

13:07 UFO 50. Vinesauce and pronouncing UFO. UFO 50 being by the guy who made spelunky. Woolie and the best friends game concept. Woolie accruing mental damage.

 - 15:21 the games these are taking the aesthetic from. And these 50 games are REAL games.

 - 17:11 the trailer is amazing.

 - 17:57 brand new and original games near the end of the timeline, comparing to the first game.  

 - 19:22 Pat asks how long it’s been in development.

 - 20:05 avianos

 - 20:57 Camouflage

 - 21:41 bushido ball, fist hell, moon cat

 - 23:04 MORTOL 1&2

 - 24:40 quibble race

 - 26:44 super worth playing. It's a fun project.

27:20 Shadow of the erdtree. Sudden switch to survival horror. The frenzied plame.

 - 28:30 Midra Lord of Frenzied Flame

 - - 29:30 Pat and reaching Midra. On the question of “are we going to find out about the elder gods?”

 - - 30:47 the type of fight that stays with you.

 - - 33:18 Torrent wants out, and the hiding in grass mechanic. And the range of stealth mechanics in games.  

 - 36:13 go check out woolie over on woolieversus on twitch and on youtube! Phoenix wright returns this week and a metaphor: Refantazio video will be dropping soon too

PAT

37:00 Metaphor put out their streaming guidelines. Actually reasonable guidelines this time, although still a weird thing here or there. No slander here.

39:23 Pat beat the metaphor demo. In persona terms, it is the entire tutorial start section, half a main dungeon, and an optional side dungeon. On the marketing.

 - 41:21 The devil summoner class in the trailer at the end of the demo.

 - 41:58 You can't 100% the demo. The optional dungeon and how crazy the battle system is. Restarting the fight by clicking in the stick.

 - 45:29 If you’re unsure on the game, try the demo

45:59 dragon ball sparking zero came out. Pat didn’t play it because he had other things to play. There are spoilers out there, because there’s some real stuff in the what-if scenarios.

46:58 before silent hill, pat wants to talk about metamucil helping paige keep her blood sugar down.

 - 48:28 Pat decided to let a horrible fart out. Pat is now on mandatory metamucil. Pat is the fart meta.

 - 50:50 this has been a battle for multiple months.

 - - 51:30 Woolie sitting on a nuclear button.

 - 52:25 Pat’s sheer skill at weaponizing farts. Also he probably is going to lose weight from this.

53:43 Mr. MacMahon. Pats watched most of it. They definitely get into some real stuff in those episodes. This needs to be 3 times as long for them to be satisfied.

 - 55:51 people saying it is a puff piece did not watch the same thing pat did.

 - 58:42 MacMahon and deflection. Him on and off screen are the same.

 - 1:00:48 cutting between Vince and wrestlers, his personal charisma and appearing reasonable. This is the man who can make bodies disappear.

 - 1:04:14 there's things Pat did not know. The whole thing about Stephanie's wedding. The street fight against her.

 - 1:06:03 the energy around MacMahon where everyone knew but it didn't really hit the mainstream. Nothing seems to stick to the guy.

 - 1:08:09 the ring boy scandal. And hiring a pedophile.

 - - 1:10:04 Remember the epstein black book of names and then it disappeared?

 - 1:10:42 what an absolute shit hulk hogan is

1:12:11 pat drugs his cat

1:12:51 SIlent Hill 2 Remake. Pat tried to be fair. Pat decided not to play through silent hill 2 again just to give it the biggest chance.

 - 1:14:17 this team has made multiple bad games in a row. And the news coming out before this did not look good. All the marketing didnt help either.

 - 1:15:31 then the reviews came out and the reception was extremely positive. But the only opinion pat cares about is his own.

 - 1:16:30 before going any further, every version of the game runs badly, frame drops everywhere. Pat describes his settings to minimize it.

 - 1:18:25 Pat hopes those issues are patched up because otherwise it is pretty excellent. Pat talks about seeing the new content out of context and now the difference between them is personal taste instead of one being objectively worse.

 - 1:21:19 some changes, like maria being a lot more manipulative, and remixing areas.

 - 1:22:10 Woolie and looking at this from the outside.

 - 1:23:22 adding details to characters. Some really hit the mark.

 - 1:24:12 but can you play footsies?! Pat has a crazy amount of ammo because he can play footsies.

 - - 1:26:00 do they change the enemies to match the new combat? Does the lean toward this new combat style change much?

 - 1:28:09 comparing to dead space’s remake. Where’s this fall between dead space and RE2? The game is twice as big as before.

 - 1:30:46 Why didn't they remake 1? 2 is more popular and there’s a lot of 1 in 2.

 - 1:32:25 Pyramid head. An improvement in meeting him in the remake.

 - 1:33:49 lots of remixes of existing puzzles.

 - 1:34:21 so far, so good.

 - 1:34:58 are you the first of the pantheon of super fans to break the silence?

 - 1:36:13 Pat feels he gets what the original team meant by ‘change more.’ Changing just enough and not going too far. The new type of collectible and the lying figure.

 - 1:37:12 a certain type of scene, and them being all over

 - - 1:40:46 pat wearing a certain shirt just in case they do the thing. There is enough there that you can speculate. On if they had actually gone for it.

 - 1:44:46 this impression is not complete. And on the new Voice acting for James is great.

 - 1:46:15 the only opinion he’s looking for is: if you are new to the game and not on social media, are the background additions too on the nose?

 - 1:48:19 pat really hopes they patch it to run better. It's the worst thing about it.

 - 1:49:22 So, about those syringes… Pat taking psyche damage from that.

 - 1:53:26 pat’s solution: close his eyes until it's over. Sometimes there is no bit.

 - - 1:56:23 pat blames innerspace for this

 - 1:58:13 What if they did the same level of care for MGS delta?

 - 2:00:11 pat’s opinion on bloober has improved. They’re good at coloring in the lines.

 - 2:00:54 The director of the original silent hill 2 on the remake.

 - 2:03:16 The original will always be important, but if this game keeps up and they fix the performance, pat would recommend this version.

 - 2:06:26 Pat is very happy to be wrong. Stop editing the wiki. Stop trying to be mad.

 - 2:08:11 Silent hill 2 remake is woke, they deleted the comic sans poster from the ranch! … actually its still there, it's in the barn.

 - 2:08:48 you can still be angry at a short message, and theres still more silent hill on the way!

2::09:45 that’s it for pat this week! Go check him out at patstaresat! More silent hill 2, and thursday or friday, metaphor refantazio!
