Chat Transcript:

6:51 PME. Zachary Knight​Hello Everyone

6:59 PMRyotaiku​How’s Kiwami 2?

7:09 PMRyotaiku​Why did the chicken cross the road? To get the highest score!

7:22 PMCodeNameZ​hi

7:23 PMCodeNameZ​Sorry for beeing late I was playing Crash on my Switch

7:29 PMCodeNameZ​You wanna see and edit a mans junk?

7:31 PMCodeNameZ​You know how many channels would get copyright strikes because they show a mans junk on channel?

7:32 PMCodeNameZ​I think the developer once says VVVVV is read as “weeeeee”

7:39 PMCodeNameZ​“There is a new game” Really people are still making games

7:40 PMaddictedtochaos​Sorry I’m late, storms came through and knocked out power.

7:41 PMCodeNameZ​In Brawlhalla there is a LGBT flag that can be set even as a taunt in game

7:42 PMaddictedtochaos​I see where both sides are coming from.

7:42 PMA Leaf​It’s really not a big deal. It’s no different than including the flag of the USSR

7:44 PMA Leaf​so should we ban terrorists in videogames?

7:45 PMA Leaf​There are still marauding hordes of terrorist organizations in the world. Should be censor them from games like in CoD?

7:45 PMaddictedtochaos​In CoD you are fighting the terrorists though.

7:46 PMCodeNameZ​Yea but we are talking about a game that have worst of the worst in one place if anything having a neo nazi tattoo would fit perfectly

7:47 PMScottyJayMan​If they wanted realism, they should replace the Nazi symbol with “MAGA”

7:47 PMA Leaf​Oh I didn’t know it was the player character. That’s a little more on the strange side.

7:51 PMCodeNameZ​But are Nazis such a big deal in todays world? I mean when is the last big thing nazis did? There are so far a small group of people that cannot do much

7:51 PMAndrew Eisen​Are you kidding? What country do you live in?

7:51 PMA Leaf​Yeah I agree that certain people like to exaggerate how big of a threat modern day nazis are.

7:52 PMA Leaf​I believe that many people who have nothing to do with fascism get labelled it too loosely today.

7:52 PMA Leaf​I live in Canada if that matters for some reason

7:54 PMScottyJayMan​I live in Australia and we just had a senator use the term “ Final Solution” in their speech to the senate. It’s a big problem.

7:55 PMScottyJayMan​You’d have to wonder if Microsoft or Nintendo were in the same position sales wise if they would still allow cross play.

7:56 PMaddictedtochaos​The roles were reversed in previous gen. And Microsoft said no.

7:56 PMCodeNameZ​You can play PS4 on a train with no problem you just need a mini TV and a portable power generatior

7:56 PMScottyJayMan​I can confirm if your account is Sony locked you can still cross play with Xbox Switch if you use the Sony account on a pc or mobile

8:00 PMScottyJayMan​Sony. The same company who joked the you can use used games in their system.

8:01 PMScottyJayMan​They still sell those.

8:03 PMCodeNameZ​I think it was made by Panasonic and even it got its own version of the GBA player

8:03 PMScottyJayMan​Made by Panasonic

8:05 PMScottyJayMan​It’s funny to think that Nintendo never released a system even with optical drives that can play dvds by themselves

8:07 PMScottyJayMan​Haha now I’m thinking about Xbox 360 HD-DVD separate drive.

8:07 PMCodeNameZ​And when Wii U came out DVD was pretty much dead and digital was the new thing for movies

8:08 PMScottyJayMan​And everyone ripped on Apple for starting the trend.

8:08 PMCodeNameZ​Dont movie it when it is on?

8:11 PMScottyJayMan​Being critical of BOTW is not an issue. It’s when you’re critical of Dark Souls that you have to fear for your safety.

8:11 PMaddictedtochaos​Treat Zelda like a choose your own adventure.

8:11 PMaddictedtochaos​I use the pro controller exclusively.

8:13 PMCodeNameZ​I ordered the Pro Controller because of Crash, games like that needs a D-pad and so far I’m using a 8bitdo controller

8:13 PMaddictedtochaos​That is what fast travel is for.

8:14 PMCodeNameZ​When I use the Joycon I hold it like the Wii remote and nunchuck (no rails on)

8:15 PMco2Paco​same here Codename Z – allows me to sit super comfy

8:16 PMCodeNameZ​Back in the day in the prime of World of Warcraft, usually a quest goes like that. You go for 15 mins to the marked space, than spend 5 mins killing, than another 15 mins to the next place

8:17 PMaddictedtochaos​That is part of the point. The game doesn’t hold your hand. Basically it is just try not to die.

8:17 PMCodeNameZ​only to pick up a thing and spend 25mins return to the starting point

8:17 PMco2Paco​yea, the game isn’t perfect, but all the criticism is what I enjoyed.

8:19 PMaddictedtochaos​Have to use the cooking pot

8:19 PMco2Paco​lol still funny rants

8:19 PMScottyJayMan​It’s either this or Skyrim.

8:21 PMaddictedtochaos​They want you to figure it out for yourself. There are multiple ways to do most things.

8:21 PMco2Paco​yea wind waker sailing was a little too “real”

8:22 PMCodeNameZ​Even in the remake you can miss really easy the speed sail because it is a random item on the auction

8:22 PMScottyJayMan​Just overclock your Switch to speed up link!

8:23 PMSeakkenned​I liked finding the tingle bottles from people in Windwaker but I hear you can’t do that anymore.

8:23 PMCodeNameZ​You cannot collect it anymore because the tinglebottle was linked to miiverse and now miiverse is down

8:24 PMaddictedtochaos​You can make potions to speed him up.

8:26 PMCodeNameZ​Usually when a link is to slow you get a faster internet

8:27 PMSeakkenned​Did you ever go to any of the mazes in breath of the Wild? Those were real cool.

8:28 PMaddictedtochaos​Guardian Scout type III or IV are rough in shrines.

8:28 PMaddictedtochaos​Some of them are multi room

8:30 PMco2Paco​yea those labyrinths look cool but to get through them, eesh!

8:31 PMaddictedtochaos​North east corner of the map is one of the labryinths

8:32 PMaddictedtochaos​Complete Rito divine beast to get Revalis gale it will make traversal so much easier.
