Host greets viewers, teases sponsor Pragmata, and glosses current gaming news including SNK and Krower trailer chatter.

Maximilian Dood dives into Pragmata on a sponsored stream, mixing hands-on gameplay with hot SNK/Neo Geo news and wild in-game discoveries.

Summary

Maximilian Dood returns to Pragmata with Capcom’s sponsorship, sharing setup tips (4K Ultra Performance with path tracing) and an honest read on how the game feels in late-stage play. He highlights Pragmata’s dual demands: precise third-person combat and quick puzzle solving that balance “left brain vs right brain” thinking, then immediately jumps into the demo footage and live reactions. Along the way, Max chats about Krower’s trailer from Fatal Fury and SNK’s Neo Geo reveal, riffing on nostalgia, hardware price points, and the joy of chasing retro cartridges. He corroborates performance notes—path tracing is gorgeous but taxing on a 4090, so he toggles Ultra Performance DLSS and separately demonstrates 4K with and without path tracing to show the visual trade-offs. The stream braids practical tips (hacking mechanics, weapon progression, and upgrading at the cabin) with humor and fan interaction, making Pragmata feel approachable even as it looks spectacular. He showcases in-game systems like Luna filament, bonus mods, and the evolving stash from the cabin, while poking at the game’s rich, Metroidvania/Dark Souls-inspired design ethos. Between boss encounters, secret beacons, and backstory snippets, Max ties the experience to Capcom’s strong visual fidelity and the surprising emotional beats sprinkled through dialogue with Diana and the Eight storyline. By the end, he teases future Pragmata content and emphasizes that the demo is accessible now on multiple platforms, including Switch, PS, Xbox, and PC. The session closes with a call to fans to explore the demo before diving back into the full experience, all under Capcom’s sponsorship banner.

Key Takeaways

  • Path tracing in Pragmata delivers stunning lighting and reflections, but pushes a 4090 well beyond 60 FPS in 4K; Ultra Performance DLSS helps regain fluidity.
  • Capcom-sponsored Pragmata streams include practical setup tips (4K, VSync, frame gen off for cleaner capture) and honest benchmarks from a high-end PC.
  • Hack-centric combat is central to Pragmata: players switch between shooting and hacking with four face buttons, enabling beacons, evasions, and boss interaction in real time.
  • Upgrade loops are gadget-first: Luna filament resources, cabin mods, and weapon attachments drive progression more than permanent gun upgrades.
  • Story beats thread through exploration: the Eight rescue arc and Earth-vs-moon setting anchor the cinematic moments amid dense, backtracking, puzzle-heavy sequences.
  • SNK/Neo Geo chatter punctuates the stream, including trailer chatter for Krauser and the 'impossible system' home Neo Geo, tying modern visuals to retro hardware culture.
  • Diving into path tracing vs. non-path-traced visuals shows a noticeable depth difference in lighting and shadows, reinforcing Pragmata’s next-gen ambitions.

Who Is This For?

Essential viewing for fans of Capcom titles, sci-fi action-adventures, and viewers curious about Pragmata’s high-fidelity visuals and hack-driven combat. Also a good pick for retro hardware enthusiasts who follow Krauser and Neo Geo news while watching modern gameplay.

Hello. Hi. Um, we're back. Yeah, we got things happening. Uh, Pragmata sponsored stream. We're going to be checking this out again. Obviously, it's Tuesday. Ah, good. That's good. We didn't get to play last night because I was just dialing things in on my settings and I did not have the time to uh stick my 5090 back in. So, uh you know, you know, it is what it is. How's the puppy? Um it's a lot. Puppy is uh puppy's a lot. It's the reason we were delayed today is because uh the puppy's a lot and we're trying to manage this stuff. Um anyway, before we uh start uh Puntaing, we got to check out all the other news that's happening at the moment, which is uh SNK stuff. And yeah, Krower's the next big character for Fetal Fury. Um and there's been a couple of things they put out on it. Also, the crazy ass Neo Geo. They're making like a home version of a Neo Geo or something like that. What the heck, dude? Let me watch the uh the Krower trailer. Hold on. Oh, cute. That the classical music still. I'll chisel your gravestones. Sleep well. Bro, does he keep the armor on? Please. He doesn't. Damn it. Oh, there's an option. Those are very stoic humans back there. Cool. He looks pretty neat. Did he Did he literally have nothing to say? This [ __ ] had nothing to say. your sleep sorrow.

Oh my god, that's soon. That's like next week. Uh, apparently there is more gameplay as well. Is there is there actual gameplay footage? Yes. Browser versus geese. I saw this on Twitter. I want to watch more of it in high fidelity. Man, I kind of like his move set. It's been a long time since I've seen like boss Krower fight. It's been a while this thing plus. Oh my god, dude. Combo seem to be doing pretty decent damage. Wait, I was looking at the wrong health bar. That's not bad. Plus on whiff, plus on hit and whiff. Negative on hit. Plus on block. Round two. Get ready. Fight. Man, characters are so still in their default poses in this game. It's funny. The audience is not impressed. I was about to say, is this going to combo? There's no way. He's got some pretty nutty ass looking specials, dude. All right. All right. Oh, that was it, man. That was it. Okay. No, I definitely want to check him out. He's He's been one of those ones that is like he hasn't been playable in a while. In like a little while. Where the heck is the Neo Geo? Hold on a second. SNK. Neo Geo. There's all this SNK news I missed over the past few days. What is this crazy thing? Does it cost $1,200? This is nuts, dude. This is nuts to bring back this system of all things. The impossible system. The unaffordable system. It's just an arcade board. So, does it actually read cartridges? That's kind of insane. If it does, does it actually read like or is it or is it like a NES classic? Bro, are we actually bringing back the freaking huge cartridges? Just arcade boards for nostalgia. Wow. Wow. That is a crazy throwback system. And you know why? You know why I think this is kind of valuable? Um because this was a system that nobody could afford, right? This was like an infamous console that you heard about from friends and then friends would tell you they have it and that it's amazing and you go to their house and they don't actually have it cuz nobody could afford it. It's for people that were like the children of Hollywood executives and [ __ ] Advanced entertainment system. Huh. That is a really You can use the OG carts. Are you [ __ ] me? I have a couple. I have a Samurai Showdown cart in storage. It's huge. It's a dusty [ __ ] though. I have to go freaking find it. Um, I missed that in the trailer. That's crazy. It pro. What the hell? Well, there's more. Huh? Is it a different system? There's an anniversary edition. Damn. All right, that's really cool. I will say that is actually that is actually very cool. Um, which Sam show? Sam show Uno. The first one, the one where it's like he's just sitting there, you know, on on the cover and it's just in a giant VHS box, like a massive VHS box. Looks like a beta box. Um, anyway, 250 bucks. I'm kind of curious. I mean, we have access to the majority of these games. It's not like the games are rare. They have been re-released in a huge variety of ways over time, but it is it is definitely nostalgia pandering. Show your SNK collection. I don't have much. I have like the one Rock Howard statue. It's back there. That has ever been God damn it. I have to Jesus Christ. Come back to the stage. I bought this in uh the year 2000. Chat is doesn't have the wings because they were a problem. Uh that [ __ ] It's 350. Yeah. This is like one of the only Rockh Howard statues that ever existed. Get my face out of here. Welcome back. Stage of history. Uh I've had it for a while. uh like 50 years old and outside of like a few games like I just I just like Samurai Showdown. So I bought like a giant box that was in good condition at uh Game Dude in LA or some [ __ ] That would be really neat if we can try to get it to play. That would be really cool. Um anyway, you can use any original Neo Geo cartridge. Damn, I almost like this announcement more than the Krower announcement. What the hell? That's insane. Okay, cool. Let's get Pragmata started. Let's do it. No more doawling. No more diddling and doawling. Let's go. Let's get started. I'm going to be so backed up if I don't start playing this game, man. And no more messing around with settings. I found settings that I'm comfortable with. I found some stuff and I'm like, this is good. I I pretty much chose 4K at ultra performance, but I injected a different DLSS into it that allows it to run pretty good. So, we'll see. We shall see. The 5090 is not in there right now. It is not. It is not. I did not have the time to back up everything and do all that stuff. I did not. Path tracing. Oh, yes. Path tracing 4K ultra performance. That's what I'm that's what I'm sitting on. So, uh, yeah, for anybody that doesn't know what the hell this is, big thanks to Capcom for sponsoring the stream. Um, we have been quote unquote looking forward to this. I was an unbeliever for like a solid 5 years that the game was ever going to come out or be any good. Luckily, it came out and is pretty good. Um, is also one of the one of the better technical visual demonstrations out there right now. So Capcom's kind of released Resident Evil and then this and it's like we have two games that are like visually very captivating. But for anybody that has never seen Pragmata before, exclamation point Pragmata in the chat. We also got um we'll get a pinned link on the YouTube side and the Twitch side if you guys have not had the opportunity, but there's a panel banner down below on Twitch. Um, but yeah, it's like a third person action shooter with puzzle elements and you have to sort of like balance, we talked about it before, like the left side of your brain and the right side of your brain when you're playing this game because you have to aim in third person action enemies, but also like solve things as it's happening. It sounds really insane, but believe it or not, it's pretty intuitive. Um, and that was the impression we got going all the way back to Summer Games Fest last year where it's like, bro, uh, this is sort of crazy. Where we're at right now is after the demo, and we played the demo. We put up videos on it. We talked about it. I've played it like several times. We're just after the demo right now. So, um, for anybody that wants to check this out and you don't want to make the initial investment, the game is out right now. It's on Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. But, um, there is just a demo. So, if you want to check out, it's called the sketchbook demo. Um, you can just see how the game plays for like the first chunk of the game. And, uh, yeah, there's a lot more. So, I'm kind of excited to see where the heck it actually goes. Um, and it's available now. So, exclamation point Pragmod if you guys are curious to learn more. All right, let me do some audio balancing and uh, let's get started. Combo. Yo, Wararehouse, thanks for the five gift subs, dude. Appreciate it. We go. You're definitely ahead of me. We were tinkering all day yesterday. I'll I'll tell you guys what I'm running uh options wise on a 4090 graphically. 4K 60 fps, VSync on rate tracing, path tracing, DLSS, raken reconstruction. Um I am on ultra performance DLSS. Unreal Bosnian. Damn. And Warhouse Bar. Thanks for the gift subs, guys. What the hell? What the hell? Appreciate it. Uh frame gen is off, low latency is on. And uh everything else I got it to a pretty good spot. Let me make sure. Does this game count as a Mega Man? Dude, I not technically, but I swear there's Mega Man references. I've seen stuff. Okay, I've seen some Mega Man teasing like people were trying so hard to hook this into Mega Man in some way that there are straight Mega Man teases in this game. It's not a Mega Man game. All I'm saying is that there is some stuff. Okay. Uh, I don't have anything to spend on. There we go. Yo, Heavy Honk, thanks for the five gift subs, man. Appreciate it, dude. It's the devs trolling. Yeah, I feel like it's the devs. It's the devs trolling, dude. Come on. I don't know. It can still be a Mega Man game. Why frame gen off? Uh, cuz frame gen doesn't necessarily look good on 60fps uh capture devices. It makes it look kind of stuttery. We wish you a happy shelter life. the best uh visual clarity for you guys in like a ultra smooth looking capture and feed is running the game at locked 60. It's just the best. Um you get the wrong frames. Yeah, it catches the wrong frames and spits them out to capture at weird times. So, um it's fine if you just have your monitor, it's fine, but since I'm streaming, I don't necessarily like it. I like that green line up there. See that in the top right? The top right? That green line? That's what I'm looking for. That's what I'm looking for. Are you on performance because of path tracing? Of course. Yeah. Yeah, we got to do that. Uh, what's this? What did I get? Watcher. The big robot. Oh, this is like a model viewer. Uh, wonder where he's weak. Wonder where his weakness is. All right, let's go. Time to see actually new stuff. Sebastian, thanks for the 1500. Hope you're doing well. I want to say almost done with the story. I'm gonna [ __ ] you not. GTA 5 doesn't release this year. It's gonna be God. I chill. Chill. That's good to know. That's good to know. We had a I had a feeling, man. I had a feeling. Played it last year and even within a few minutes I'm like, "Oh no, it's really good. Oh no, it's actually really good." Um, mass production array. Yeah, new stage. I'm literally like right at the beginning. Max had huge faith in this game at from the start. Of course. Absolutely. That's definitely true. Huge faith from day one before the trailer was even out. Okay. Undoubtedly, indubitably. now we can go to the cops tower. Can't tell if we'll actually get through to Earth, but need to know about my team. Damn lighting. They hide some of these secrets in like most plain sight. It could be right over here. What the heck? Kitty cat. Hey, wait. Why is there a space cat? Kids, no. Come back. Diana, people have digital pets up here. What are you doing? Are you trying to hurt yourself? If I break, you can just fix me back up. That's not the point. Whose Dev's cat is that? You have to be more careful. If something happened to you, I'd be in real trouble. In real trouble? Why? I mean, well, you'd best think on that yourself. Okay, I will. I wonder how much of this we got cats are all the people will be obvious dad stuff to me like normal dad stuff and to some other people will be like super emotionally resonant where I'm just like yeah history yeah I mean I mean yeah like to some people without without the effect of dad stuff they'd be like oh god Yo, Unreal Bosnian, thanks for the gift subs again, dude. Holy hell. I'll take that. Appreciate it. Good dodging, chat. I can confidently say it's about 75%. Damn, this is looking great. Holy hell, that's new. Shoot out. Guess that's that. Okay, they die quick. Uh, explody. Wow, the reflections, brother. This is so so crazy to me. Hey, rewarded for my due diligence. It tickled any of my girl dad brain yet? Not yet. What if it's like normal stuff? Mass production array uses a massive limb replicator. Installed in the ceiling to test print structures, capital ships, and jumbo airliners because the area will be sealed off by heavy bulkheads. When you hear an announcement, please evacuate. Oh [ __ ] my refractions. Look at that. You really can make everything with Luna filament, huh? It's making a taxi. They don't have it on Earth. Nah, testing's been limited to the moon, as far as I know. People back home have only heard about stuff like this. Does that mean there are no pragmata? No clue. But I've sure as heck never seen a bot that needs as much watching as you do. Is that a bad thing? Nah, you keep things interesting. That's good. The inquiry keyword pragmata is classified as security level six. Only a summary is available for viewing. A high functioning autonomous prosthetic body with a simulated organic structure currently undergoing operational testing in limited sectors due to sign due to differing design concepts. It is not compatible with standard work bots commonly used throughout the cradle. Doesn't What? Anonymous. Thanks for the gift sub, dude. So, she doesn't like the bots, but damn. Jesus, dude. Path through tracing this. Oh, hi. You're very tall. You're very tall. Like extremely tall. Pragmata is what her Yeah. there. Her her robot is called They're called Pragmatas. That looks like where we're going to go. Ah, during lunar exploration, the or lunum was discovered accidentally through nanom machine refinement. It yielded lunafilament, a material capable of replicating structural and functional data. Research at the cradle is actively exploring its applications with expectations of driving significant growth and breakthroughs. I thought they said this stuff breaks easily, so I was like, "Oh, they're so that's why they're making stuff in low gravity." But no, no, no. They're saying that the material that's used to 3D print everything was actually found on the moon. It's a precursor of the next seven years. Look, I think that's the comm's tower. What? Where? There. That big one right in the middle. Whoa. Oh, here's the New York area. Would you look at that? Oh, we're already here. Looks about like New York. New York. Is that a place on Earth? Yeah. In America. So many lights and signs. I I can't decide what to look at first. This was the initial trailer for the game. Multi hack. Oh, that was one of these nodes. Cool. See, now any graphical bugs could be easily explained. It's world tour mode. I didn't want to use that. Did not want to use that. Hey, they're just dropping them. A bunch of bops at once. Where's all the secrets? Where are they? Uh, dude, there's stuff over there. There's straight up stuff over there. Do you hack the enemies? Uh yes. So you control both. The hacking is done on the four face buttons and the shooting is done with the triggers and the uh left stick. It sounds weird, but go play the demo and you realize, oh, it's not. It's not weird at all. Yeah, this is ultra performance mode in 4K. Hello, this is due to an unidentified Nagno. Thank you. This area has been secured. Mass printing will resume shortly. Damn. So that's how it is. Edus isn't very nice, is it? Hack the beacons. Five left. Access beacons to reach the comm's tower. Yo, anonymous. Thanks for the gift sub, dude. Oh, so weird, too. I don't know. Try scanning. Literally hacked the planet. Planning in this game is insane. We're doing path tracing. So, yes, it just is. It's actually insane. Uhoh. What the what in the It almost hit us. Yeah, nice moves, kid. All slamming out there. I'm glad we found you. Okay, we have a port now, dude. Just stop and smell the roses for a second. Holy hell. Crazy looking. Wow. Sniffer. Just stop and sniffer. Hey, I want that. Ew. The riot blaster to blast damage and knock back enemies in a wide area. Oh. Oh, it's a grenade launcher. I have to swap it for the stasis net. Oh dear. Hope you're ready to blast them. God, you the enemy. Take that. Back off. Sorry, I had to juggle. I had to juggle. Here it comes. Look out. I got it. What's that tweeting? Things be tweeting. Free your mind. Is New York City always like this? This isn't really the same. It's more like your average shopping area. Earth sure has a lot of places. There's also a ton of stuff you can't find on the moon. Really? I want to see. Yeah, that's funny. Res devil. I read it I read it as resident devil. Got it. Wait. Oh boy. How the hell? Oh my god. I have to go back. Jump. Damn. My brain, dude. They solved that one wrong. There needs to be a quick reset, you know. Maybe there is. I'm just not doing it. Look, there's a bunch of dolls all lined up. There's a beacon. It's so close. Come on. There's got to be another way. This it's it's a mannequin. They're made to look like humans to show off clothes and stuff. They might look the part, but real people got that life blood in them, right? And no blood means no moving. No, I mean, uh, humans got a certain warmth to them. Oh. Oh. Over 36° C, right? No, just forget it. Foolish child. Oh boy, dude. You're going to die. Literally going to die. What? I'm floating. Oh, that's a there's a glass there. What the hell? Yeah, but what's over here? Yeah, but what's behind me though? Literally nothing. Actually, generationally nothing. This is max health. Open enemies stay longer for 15%. That's a mod. Okay, that can help me better. What the hell did that do? Did it stop the lasers? It did. So many secrets. Jesus. Damn. How are we going to reach that beacon? There's no clear way through. The only choice is ours. The enemy move. We did it. Might as well use it. Use it or lose it. Ah, this was the secret. Look at that. That's a lot of lip. This was the secret. Look at me with the huge brain. You have to hack in anybody to kill it. You can just run it. Uh, ruin it and fun. You can do damage. It just does an extremely small amount of damage. The hacking like opens them up to the full 100%. What is this joking? Dead hunter. No, hackrun would be tedious. Yeah, would be extra tedious. Dead space. How about that? That unit can bust up groups of bots. Spicy barbecue burger. Damn, that is mad cheap now. They probably made this like years ago when that maybe was like expensive and it would be like a joke, but now it's hella cheap. But it's plastic. This is true. Oh, god damn it. Well, at least I got that. Just realized where I was. Take that. Wait. Oh, you pick up one and you can drop one. How funny. Hello. Oh, hi. Be careful. Good job. Something else is shooting me. Holy moly. Oh my god. Stop scittering around. Look out for What did he say? What do you have? Oh my god. Move you. Watch out. I'm trying here. What? Where is he? What? God, that's it. Got my ass kicked. Diana's over here back seating. Uh oh, it's up there. Jeez, there's a lot of these. This is going to take forever. Can't we just pop them all at once? They aren't connected, so I don't think so. Something big. An extremely rare high purity chunk capable of upgrading equipment to higher level function. Ooh, shiny. Standing here, it feels just like being on Earth. It's as if New York I saw as a child is right before my eyes. It's not about meeting the basic conditions for life. We humans need landscapes that can hold our memories, places to call home. Luna Filipin can recreate those memories for us. I could stay here forever. This person really felt like they were all on Earth. This is not for me. Why is that? Well, doesn't necessarily look like I don't know. It's just too clean here. The earth is dirty. Let's just say people can be a bit messy. But maybe I like messy. Does Earth really look like this? You really been left in the dark, huh? Didn't anyone ever teach you this stuff? Nope. I was left in sleep mode for so long. And when I woke up, the vault was all messed up. Must have been the quakes. There was no one else. Nope. Nobody. All alone, huh? I know the feeling. I got this jelly on screen. I got to figure out how to kill these lasers. Very bright. Oh, I didn't even see the mannequins there. My god, it's a spoopy. What are these Resident Evil devs or something? Do it. It's the Resident Evil devs. Let's hurry back and get back to cabin. So many secrets throughout the levels. Almost reminds me of like Doom. Get ready. Overdrive. No, we we're good. Oh my god. We're not good. What? That was cool. Wow. Amazing. Wow. Who the hell? Where did you Damn. Sniped me. Restart the whole level. It's going to go great next time. We can upgrade. Probably not the whole level, just most of it. Unit schematic registry updated. So, I can now make the riot blaster. Wait, wait, wait. Can I upgrade it? Attachments. Extra node slot. Extra mod slot. Thruster charges. Ooh man. might need some defense. Let's try that. Uh maybe we actually increase our defense just a little bit. Just a little bit. damage on that gun goes up a bit by 0.1. Devs, come on. Come on, devs. Well, we're hacking like every time. So, we should use that. The glass cannon build. Them mannequins we saw had a lot of different kinds of outfits. Why was every mannequin wearing something different? Because stores got to keep up. People are always chasing the latest trends. I want to try on lots of outfits, too. Really? What kind of styles are you into? Well, what do you think would look good? Uh, well, uh, kids clothes. Uh, you, uh, I think you should stick with what you got now. Suits you good. Just go to Target. You'll be fine. Mega Man outfits. We wish you a happy shelter life. Does this game run on RE Engine? Uh, all Capcom stuff runs on RE Engine nowadays. pretty much all of it. Printed gear can be equipped at the tram terminal menu and taken to the shelter into any sector. Right. right. It's already equipped. Okay. Bods. Oh, do you have to put these on every time? Dang. I need to buy more of those. man. Beetle, thank you. Gibbos, uh, Lady Witch Fox, Billy, Boris, Marov, Sloth, River, Gary, Game Time, Skolo, uh, Pacito, thank you, the Lionhe Heart, Sleepsy or Sleeps FGC, Brendan, and Sir Pipwise. Thanks, dude. Uh, right here. Okay, you should try targeting their head. I have the red. I think that's we This area is extremely dangerous. Securing this red zone. unlock. Aim for the head. Why not? Why wouldn't I? Kyh, thank you, dude. Why wouldn't I go going to the red zone? Hey, what? What could go wrong? You got help. Bam. Whoa. Oh, hi. it's okay, dude. That stuff's crazy. stop scootering around. The enemy, too. We're demon over here. Leave the shooting to me. Regular guns. There we go. Dang. That was amazing. It's a video game. Dang, it is a video game. This game is gaming now. Big reward. Oh, this was that extra room. I see. That's where I saw the thing before. Now we cook. I owe you. Nope. Guess that's that. Right. Blaster, please. I need some uh regular shotgun stuff, not just this scootering around. Yeah. Wonder if there's a thing you can get to pick up all the extra Luna filament later on. missed that before. There we go. Man, now I feel like I'm speedr runninging levels. Interesting. So, what I was always saying is that this game feels like it wants to be played fast, right? Just naturally. It feels like it wants you just to to blast through it. And I feel like that may be why it has almost souls like respawning. You're supposed to sort of overdrive protocol at the ready. It's over. Feel like they want you to like cook through it. Isn't that all Capcom games generally? No. A lot of Capcom games are usually very generous with their checkpointing. This one literally has a hub. when you die, you go to the hub, you know, which is not in a lot of Capcom games, not recently. Game has its own like Firelink Shrine. Oh, this one's tough. I already solved it. Oh, dang. So, the the puzzles you solve stay solved, which is why you can just cook forward. Yeah. It's very old school is what it is. It's almost like they knew that playing the game is fun, so they made it so that you have to repeat levels. You know, if you get whooped, you got to repeat levels. And it was shocking to me at first. I was like, "What? You're having me do this? This is kind of insane. And then it's like, oh, but going through this stuff quick is sort of neat. Now, usually DMC DMC puts you back at like the previous encounter. I really just go backwards. I have to go back. It's been a while since I played DMC 5. That's so here is where we got roasted before. can't clip up there. Don't need Close quarters. Increases attack power by 10% and within 10 meters of the enemy. Okay. I wonder what weapons that would work with. Stasis net. Right. I like the riot blaster. This project which recreates iconic cityscapes from major cities such as New York, Seoul, Madrid, and Delhi is an unprecedented large-scale output test. At the same time, it aims to provide the Luna filament can enable rapid urban development showcasing its value on Earth. Sure. All to make money. We're good. Oh god. Yeah, it is still on the moon right now. Oh, that's convenient. Thank you, Mr. Replicator. [ __ ] ass printed a bridge. There's got to be something over here, Son of a [ __ ] Is that a teleporter over there? If so, if it's a checkpoint, then I can done down here and get it. Catch this time. I don't need you crawling off the side of a bridge going after it again. I won't do that again. That's our checkpoint. You said best think on that yourself. See, I can do that. Wow. Word for word. Because I wrote what you said to my memory course. Is this not operating right? Hold on a second. Hold on a second. We have a checkpoint. Ultra combo. Oh, this takes us up. What if I like get ready for portable on? I hope you hey, I'm living. I'd like to have a shotgun, though. I'm holding on to overdrive for the next pragmata game, chat. Clearly. Look out. Need a shooting immediately. Reload, please. There we go. It's over. I had no guns when I took out these big babies. Damn, look at all this all this loot. Yes. Uh-oh. Wait, it was the wrong guy. This is my turn. Okay, nice. Bang. Bang. Yo, Sizzy, thank you. We're doing fine. Going to get all this fat loot. Nobody would dare fight the babies early. I would curious once. Always getting up to no. Kept chasing anything that do you chase? One time I went after a squirrel and totally face her. See, you ran after animals, too. Just like me. Yeah. Well, that's how I know it's dangerous. Cool. I like fighting guys out here. It's neat. Where's this thing? I'm going to go back and heal, right? Let's go back and actually get a uh a refresh. Yeah, the combat is engages the hell out of you. I mean, I'm glazing it, but we're also sponsored. Uh big shout out to Capcom for sponsoring the stream chat. If you guys uh don't know about Prankmod, there's also a demo for it, and it's available now on Xbox, PlayStation, and uh PC and Switch 2. So, uh the game is actually out out. It's been like six years. It's actually real. It's actually out. Um, and yeah, if you want to try the demo for free, the demo is free and then the game is uh just available. So, exclamation point Pragmata. There's also pinned uh comments in the YouTube and Twitch chat. There's a panel banner down below on Twitch as well. Um, hold up. Anything special? I can buy hacks here. What is this? Unlock crit shot. Dang. You get visceral, bro. You get visceral attacks. What the heck? Oh, the witch time. I want it. I want witch time. I want witch time. That's why these things are so good. Sick. So, if you dodge at the right time, you get uh slow-mo. That's dope. Yeah, I want the execute. We have to find the other uh thingamajig. Okay. Yeah, this game runs really good if you don't do path tracing. path tracing is very demanding, but I've seen people like running this in 4K on even some lower-end rigs um with DLSS and stuff at like just locked 60. It runs very good. Path tracing though is extremely expensive. Like if you look at my 4090, just for comparison's sake, um where is it? Uh look at this. Look at the processing load, brother. I literally have to drop it all the way down as low as I possibly can to get anywhere close to 60 fps because if we do quality at 4K, we're getting like maybe 40-ish frames per second, maybe 40-ish. And it's just like it is path tracing is very expensive, but it's neat. It's neat that we have the option. tonight. The nice part is that the game still looks really good even if I drop it all the way down to ultra performance, which is Dude, what's what is ultra performance upscaled to 4K? Is that like 720p technically? 720p upscaled to 4K. Is that what that is? Yeah, it's actually a 720p image upscaled to 4K. And it looks good. Like, no kidding. It looks really good. Yeah, I have DLSS 4.5 in here. All right, let's get back. Uh, mods. Yeah, I want it. Oh, I only have two mod slots. No, no, no. Let's go spend some more money. Hold Do these use the same resources? I think Luna filament uh is the stuff that we have here, right? Hacking abilities, attachments. Yes. Mod slot. Yes. Damn, I have a lot of this stuff maxed out. More thrusters, more repair. That costs that. That cost that can just go in with these guns. Um, when hacking gauges full, press L&R, hacking gauge gain, let's see more hacking stuff, right? Well, that's already maxed out. Sheesh. Uh, more thrusters then. Why am I holding on to this stuff? All right, here we go. Now I can put my third mod on. Um, my weapon loadout sucks currently. Have that. Okay. Nice. Does this game have any kind of melee combat? Not yet. No, it's still all depending on um shooting essentially. No spoilers. Shh. Oh, my stomach. My god. My stomach. Charge piercer. A powerful attack unit that fires armor-piercing rounds. When charged, its power and piercing effects dramatically increase. Damn, I almost don't like the spoiler before firing test results. I almost don't like the fact that it spoils me of what it looks like ahead of time. I almost want to discover how wild it is in the moment. Look out for target. It's almost like a charging buster of some kind. I've been shot. Shooting to me. Big baby. Look, a big old piece of junk again. Oh god, I've been locked out. Out of his face. Those antennas are in the way. Oh, wow. What the heck? Oh, they locked out a portion of the grid. Neat. The game is changing. There we go. Neat. I was like, what is happening? And I couldn't go over there. You can reset the hack by pressing and holding the touchpad. I don't use a touchpad. Okay. I only use arcade style controls. That thing packs some punch. There. Yes, I'm I'm playing this on piano. Yes, that's it. bang bang. Dude, I can do so many boost dashes in the air now. Relay amplifier increases hacking range by 30%. That mod lets me hack from farther away. Does it now? Is there something down there? No, no, no, no, no. That's where we were, right? God, that is where we were. I can see a beacon over there on that roof. Hold up. I really want that. Every corner I go to gives me loot. history. Right on. What's beeping at me? You're going down. Beep beep. Nicolish. Thank you, dude. All right, that's three. We're already halfway there. Last half full, huh? Uh, give me big stuff. That's behind a wall. Come on, hot dogs. I get to you. I got to fall into this. Yeah, it looks like it. Hey, what was that? Cabin will like that. Dude's name is Cabin. Hey, look at me. I'm a god. There's a reason this humble playground fixture is always a hit. Maybe simple, but that doesn't make it any less fun. Is that another? Sure is. Let's take it back to the shelter. Weird corner. That a bot. What in the hell? This is some good stuff. Don't let it get away. Scary. It's okay. Good lord. We'll get another shot. Got him. Whoa. Lost it. here it comes. Look out. Take this. Playing the video game now. Playing the video game now. This is so cool, Max. Uh, okay. Both of these are very good. Yeah, the slow-mo thing is mad cool. Where' our robot go? Uh, I'm going to need more of these now. What is that? Upgrade. Yum, yum, yum. Hey, the bot's gone, man. Son of a was too distracted by the billion dudes. I think this is literally the only way I can go. Yeah. It's funny. I feel like I've already gotten a ton of upgrades. Did you hear that? Oh, getting close. It's night time. Do humans really need to eat more than once a day? Your energy efficiency doesn't seem good. Sure, that's fair. But sharing a meal is more than just recharging. I was an orphan, so at dinner with my new family, just having someone that would listen was magical. It was all kids stuff, but they were always there. Talking with someone who just accepts you for you is a kind of nourishment, but for your soul. You can get nutrients from talking. Something like that. Why is Hugh so down to earth? This character isn't realistic. There's another beacon. This guy must be insufferable. Sitting here appreciating his friends and stuff. This guy's the This dude's the epitome of kiss your homies. Oh god. Hold on a second. I owe you Look out for targeting them. I' been shot. Okay. Can these laser bros stop lasering me? What the hell is that? What the hell was that? I countered the missile. Bro, I countered the missile in midair. Missed it. Too much too much brain power. Leave it to me. You can parry missiles through through hacking. Look out for targeting. Oh, this is getting wet and wild. Something's aiming. Missile spotted. There's so much happening right now, bro. to kill one at a time. Just one at a I've been shot again. Look for targeting. Not looking good, my homies. Watch out. There's more. Yeah, let's do. Missile spotted. Parry the missile. Yes. Okay, now we have some guns to work with. My god. Oh yeah. Please hit him. I don't want to die. Jeez, that was a lot. That was a lot. I really regret using my hack and the first wave not knowing that there was going to be a second wave loot. Please, please loot. Oh, that was not it. There we go. Okay. Pretty neat. Yeah, I stopped blinking, too. My eyes are all dry now. Two more to go. We can do this. Hugh, having fun. That was the first like mega engagement of the game, I'd say. Like that feels like if you're playing this on this the standard difficulty, there there's a lot to deal with. You have to be getting like used to using these mechanics. Finishes on New York. Well, I've been thinking maybe something with a bit more history. How about something Japanese? Isn't that where you're from? What about something in the Kigumi style like you'd see with the temples in N? They're made entirely from wood, but can ly stand over a thousand years. Nothing but wood. Just thinking about it. Wow. You'd need wooden samples at least 100 years old for something that strong. A worthy challenge. But everything is possible. I can get the uh the visceral finishers now. Let's go get it. Giving Capcom Hail Mary vibes. Leon Hunter, Darth Silver, Uzu. Back to the lab again. Umbra, Vionus, FGC, Ghost, Triexia. Thanks everybody. Heal me, please. Thank you. Let's do our best. Wait, you have a space thing. Getting nutrients from talking. That's so weird. What do you do with this? Should I climb up it? The slide's too small for you. I wanted to slide down together. Quiet. You toys. Let the kid play. I got work to do. Extra dad. FF7 flashbacks. Crit shot. Yes. Oh, it's a node that spawns so it doesn't happen all the time. Okay. now I have to buy it. No, I maxed it out. Dang, I committed. Increases overdrive protocols damage opens duration time. I've already maxing out all this stuff. Repair up here. I'm going to do um a test really quick. Let's do a graphical test the middle of it all. Um I think we have to go back to the main menu to change that. We might have to uh save. What have I not saved yet? Holy moly. Turn to title. Hold on a second. I want to try it. We we have to do it in main menu. Turn it on. Turn it off. Let's see what it looks like without it. Just going to run around with ultra high resolution. Graphics. Um path tracing off. Ray tracing on. DLSS. DAA. Yeah. Let me have it. See what this looks like. Okay, ultra high res now. Yo, really newbie? Thanks for the gift sub. Back here again. Safe and snug. I mean, it is crispy getting nutrients from talking. What happens if the nutrients aren't enough? Um, you probably feel lonely or just uneasy. Might even start losing faith in Could you get sick? Some do. Well, I got coins to spend. Yes. But everyone's different. Well, I've got you to talk to, so I'll probably be fine. Hey, can I give you something? Thank you. Thanks for talking to me all the time. What are you going to give me? Tada. is this I thought it was going to be like an upgrade. I thought she was going to Here's a gun. I threw it. I thought she was going to give me a gun. And she got something for me to put on the fridge, too. Not half bad, Kale. Yeah, it's nice having all of these things everywhere at all times. That doesn't do much for me, chat. That doesn't do much for me cuz I just have this stuff, you know? I just have this stuff. I mean, it means a lot. The the game part of it is very nice. You know, it's very nice to have the video game child give me stuff, but you know, the real life part of it is uh is very nice. All I'm saying is that Let me show you how this works. Ungrateful. I mean, I She's a robot. My real child. Hold on. Can I spend things here? I think I still have Bro, I all on my desk still, dude. They're all She made a crazy fuzzy monster for me, Dag, man. Here's the thing, chat. I'm living half the game in real life. Okay. I'm living half the game in real life over here. Now that that almost made me cry cuz I haven't pulled that out and looked at that in a long time. That almost made me cry. Okay. Cabin stamps. overclocked memory lump loaded. The tra menu chargeable weapons charge 30% faster. That's very good. Reduce damage received by 20% when your HP is below 50%. Dude, you can unlock skins. What? You get skins? Huh? What is this? Triple bingo. I get skins for my huge ass. Authorization to faster red zone gates. Oh, you have quite the eye organ. Yes, I do. Uh, I like the default costume. I don't want to change anything right now. I like this a lot. Bingo. Well done. that's not Oh. Oh, this is the reward I get for spending. Dude, this is like a battle pass, but it's like an in-game battle pass. And I don't mean like the type of battle. This is like literally a battle pass, but we're just unlocking things as a result. Deal 10% more weapon or hacking damage against down or immobilized enemies. This is one of our more It's a bingo pass. We hope you enjoy your purchase. I've been wanting to do this. Been wanting to do this. Oh yeah, that thing. We're cranking the volume. Somebody left their dice here. Wait, since when did we had dice? Since we printed the globe, they both appeared at the same time. I see. Looks like how different is it without path tracing? Not that different. I mean, we'll get to some environments to see how different it is. Who made that? Put in a little extra to cheer us up. I see. I want to tell the person who made it that I liked it a lot. Hugh, I love gambling. This is like a slot machine. She just keeps going. I love gambling. This is so much fun. And drinking. Oh god, stop the robot. Increasing hacking range by 30%. Overclock and skirmisher. Jeez, I have some stuff to work with now. 15% longer. Like the hacking range increase. More damage to these guys. I like this idea. Seems like it'll be fun. Sure. Ride T. Get out. Let's go. Did you tell me I only found 54% of this? What? I found only half of the things in the first area. Dude, I was looking. I think I have to go back. I think there's like a bunch of like glitched out parts that you have to return to later on. Yeah, some parts are blocked. Got to look harder. No, I had huge eyes. My eyes are huge. I mean, it still looks really good, you know, and even the ray tracing by itself is like not bad, doing the job. It's just not as like deeply accurate as path tracing. Like look, it's still working. Interesting to see my option on FXA plus TAA. Ooh, let's check it out. So, you're saying no DLSS at all? Uh, so what? DL AAA. Turn it off and then just go down to here. Oh man, is that that is very crisp, man. Oh man. Wow, that is really crisp. To look too crispy for you guys. It just looks like really crispy, you know? doesn't look oversharpened or anything. It just looks mad crispy. Maybe it's a little too crispy. Yeah, it's kind of bad on bit rate. Be real. I could see it. It's all downhill from There's a lot of granular detail in this game and I could see how that would be a bit too much on uh the stream. Yeah, the bit rate might not be able to keep up. No anti-aliasing at off. Oh yeah, that's crunchy, brother. That is crunchy. It's a crunchy looking game now, dude. Huh? Ronchy. So, I'm thinking DAA might maybe is the best option, personally speaking. hold on. Upscaling. Yeah. Yeah, it feels like DAA is where it's at. It It anti-aliasing the image. Looks way better. Red Max. The hell's that about? Uh, Earth hidden gems. You don't want to miss a Wesker production. I'm going to tie this into Resident Evil. Now, Visit the site. What site? A Wesker production. Express. Red Max. What are you guys talking about? What? I don't see a website. The website. Go to it. A Wesker. Oh, a westererproduction.com. Somebody had to have somebody had to have made this. I don't Capcom didn't make this. This is made just by a guy. Just a dude did this. Look at Leon. Shut That's crazy. Somebody did not a weskerproduction.com. Dude, there's no way. Someone must have claimed it before they did. They They're going to have to take out the dot. Hold on to your Heiny. Hold up. My what? Like something out of an amusement park here. Uh oh. Where? I'll tell you later. Hold on. I I missed stuff. Oh, or I didn't. Oh, it's a filament block. Damn it. Wait, wait, wait. I think I've been here before. The loot goblin before had a thing you missed. Where was that at? Was that back here? I mean, because the loot goblin disappeared. Maybe I had to go back and come back to repop it. Yeah. You know what? I will say without path tracing, the game is a little flatter. I will say it. It It is definitely helping. It's flatter. Yeah. Like the like just the like the way light hits things just makes things not look as like have as much depth. What the hell is that down there? Just bots. Hey, hold up. Uh hello. I don't need that right now. Oh, hello. All these guys are going to repop now, which is going to cause problems. Yeah, it's not that it looks bad. It looks Dude, this bot is gone wherever it was. Um, it looks very good still. I'm just saying the path tracing I'm I'm actually noticing a bit of the difference even though we don't have as much of the uh the visual clarity. That's helpful. Might have been what I was missing. Did I go over here? Oh god. Look out for its targeting center. Literally farm these guys. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. This is where we went up before. The loot. Music's actually really cool, too. It sounds like Mega Man music, says the chat. Chat, everything sounds like Mega Man music to you. Okay, hold up. We're dinking around. Yay. Overdress protocol. This guy. Oh my god. Ow. Jeez. Damn. Dude thinks he's Leon Kennedy. Yeah. Let's do this. This dude thinks he's Leon Kennedy. Okay. Wait. Yeah, you're right. There was a big ass item down here. Somebody was actually right. Long range targeting increase attack by 10% when the enemies over 20 meters away. Okay. I already got all that. I already got all that. Uh, got that. We're good. So, let's just take one of these. Uh, actually, what is this? What's in here? Were we already here? Yes, we were. We just unlocked that as a shortcut. I see. I see. Cool. I'm going to hack the hack the planet or I'm out of space juice. I'm I I haven't seen the loot guy respawn yet. I don't know if he does. Not know Diana has like a shield on her right That goes that way. This goes this way. We want to go up. Oh, that's overdrive. Ah, I see. Spartan rage. Yeah. This like a secret like Heyo what? We're back. The hell was I doing? All right, we did side questing. Here we go. Back to uh back to the ordeal. Is that where to go or what to do? Oh, this is where I was at before. Yo, Jace, thanks for the tier one. the pathway. Is that a grapple? Wonder what would happen if you turn this on. When disposing of bots in the limb recycler, strictly follow these steps. Place the target object in the radiation zone. Verify the object is completely inside, then activate. Standing within the radiation zone is during their cycl activation result in fatal lacerations. Damn, I don't want to get fatally lacerated. Oh, use this. space laser. hell do we have here? A defense unit that creates a lifelike hologram decoy. Draws the enemy attention for a short time. Decoy itself does not deal damage. A spoiler. Ooh, I finally have occupying that slot. Oh, what? Oh, that just gives you a hack gauge. Oh boy, I see some fun over here. it comes. Look out. Miss one. Wow, dude. Even if you jump at the right time, right before it hits you, it puts you into crazy slow-mo jump. Doesn't need this to be a dodge. It can be a slow-mo jump as well. That's pretty sick. All I did was jump and it did mega slow-mo. Sanctimonious Fox. Thank you. End of the road. A century old TV designed for transmitting sound and images. Looks like our only way out is down. I had a feeling this would happen. Me, too. Oh, crap. Baby. Now take this. Oh jeez. I had to do it. I had to do it. Damn. Ruthless bastard. Neat. Oh, I thought I could walk through there. Hey. You want to go back to the center and you poop? Nah, I'm seeing stuff that I could blow up. Happy birthday. Happy second birthday on the moon. Did you make another one of those fake cakes with the food replicator? I can't wait till next year when we finally celebrate your birthday. Only six more months until we're back in each other's arms. I'm so proud of you. I love you. Koko says she can't wait to see you. Meow. your beautiful wife. Party, huh? Why do humans celebrate getting older? Life's worth celebrating. Every new year is another gift. But when you've almost had 40 of them like I have, they can blur together a bit. It's hitting too hard right now. Hitting a little too hard. Chill out, bro. Incoming. Uh-oh. The enemy. Overight activated. Laser zap. This game's pretty cool. This game's pretty cool. There's some fun fun stuff happening right now, man. Use that to pull bots 100% of the time. Maybe. Doll sound in the previous room. Yeah, I thought he was coming from this room. He's definitely coming from in here. Where are you at, my dude? Here's the thing. I see that. It's also like, how do I get up? Dur. Maybe it's one room over. It is. I think it's that. So, I got to do this. I'm going to assume. Okay. And it was not. It definitely was Wow. More limbs. Space gloop. Can I just like jump up there? Literally can literally can. These are so fun to collect. Yes. Where you at, buddy? There's something in here that we can get, but we cannot destroy it yet. Good job, Anonymous. Thanks for the good stuff, Hey, let me see. Diana, don't have it. I think I see how it works. I should be able to break this down. I'm going to try something. Someone needs to put like speed rap to her voice, you know? Someone needs to take like like some some rapper that's like speed rapping like Eminem and [ __ ] Who was that? I want to do my part. I know I can help. Glad to hear it. I'm counting on you, kiddo. Roger that. There is one thing that this game is getting right. That hit me in the heart. It did. That one got me. Chris again, thank you anonymous. Appreciate it. Um, kids just want to be involved, right? Kids just want to be somehow involved in what you're doing. Whether or not it's like boring to you, they just want to be involved. They just want to help, you know? So yeah, I get it. Some of this some of this game is doing that. Someone quick, look at the monitor. Look at the size of that boat. It's It's attacking humans. Why? Where is Edos? Why is it doing anything? Edith is the one that ordered the attack. No, that can't be. It's It's trying to get in. It's It's almost there. Quick, we got to get out of here. What happened to these people? You know anything? I haven't seen anyone besides you since leaving the vault. Can't believe we haven't found any survivors. Not a good sign. Dude, we just opened up so much of the game because we can like Castlevania backtrack now. Like, holy hell. I'll take a multi hack. Here's the crazy thing. Even if this was a Mega Man game, it'd be pretty sick. Like here that's the funny part of it is that like even if it didn't have like you know the fatherdaughter aspect to it but it was all about Mega Man and hacking and engaging with enemies and it's a third person game and he's like pew pew and charging and hacking and air dashing and like it would actually be mad I'll be honest. Can these devs do a Mega Man game? I'm just going to be completely honest. Could we get these devs to do like a third person Mega Man action game? That would be really neat. I think they deserve it after like this is a relatively like younger development crew at Capcom from what I understand. Like a lot of the devs on this are not like all veterans. It'd be really cool if they got like a legit actual modern-day representation of Mega Man instead of just games that are old games. You know, Mega Man 11 is just an old game. The new Mega Man is most likely just going to be an old game again. So, it's like it'd be really cool if it was like a a soft reboot of Mega Man in some way. That'd be really sick. I feel like they have a formula here that's very neat. Although it does sort of take away the specialness of this game and the fact that it is a new IP and they found a like they found a way to this is this is this is how you know you're a Capcom fan is that our IPs have been denied for so long that we just want to find reasons to justify old IPs to come back in some way. But when they do something new that also is like isn't as celebrated at times, but it should be because Capcom has so many IPs that people just love, you know, that we're just waiting for moments for them to come back in some way. Anyway, Ender System uh throw a warning limb recycler off the charts. Think about it. Only one tiny scrap or three giant chunks. Power cost is the same. It's using it on high cost items whenever possible. Is that hard for you to grasp? Keep your head in the game, Kevin, or the AI might decide you're the next thing to recycle. Damn. You know, and I understand it where it's like, yeah, you have like a younger development team or something like that or like, you know, that are trying to do something different. So, it's better that they do a new IP instead of like an established thing, which could lead to failure and upset fans and stuff like that. But when you have a new IP, you don't really have expectations, you know, like this is the difference. You don't have expectations. So, you can only impress people. Um, and Pragmata obviously is impressing people. It obviously is like doing it for a lot more than any new Capcom IP in a long So, now I think they've proven themselves where it's like, hey, you know what? You guys have proven yourselves. Now you should get something big. I honestly think that now you should get like, yeah, take this graphics and all the stuff you built and all like the visual style of it, dude. Make a Mega Man game. Holy hell. What if this was the new Mega Man X or something like that? Imagine like an absolutely beautifully animated Mega Man X in like this style. And he's like doing all these crazy transformations and you're flipping and flopping to different modes on the fly and dashing all over the place and hacking like I don't know, man. It just be It feels like it's so rich for opportunity. That's weird. Instead, like Mega Man is an IP that is specifically sort of held back. The only the only new Mega Man you games you get are pretty much old games. Blow it up. That's cool. I think I'm going to turn path tracing back on. I think I think this is great. I like it a lot. But Oh, we're unlocking a shortcut. Hell yes. Hell yes, dude. That's mad cool. Okay. I'm like, where are we right now? Oh, Dark Souls. What was in here? Duh. Oh, I see. The upgrade components and the um the increase of your devil trigger are pretty similar like visually. I can't go in there. Yeah. You know what I wasn't expecting? I was not expecting this to be the closest Capcom game to a Souls game. I was not expecting that. I did not get that impression from early from the demo. I didn't get that impression from the early play test, any of that kind of stuff. I did not get that impression. It's not a Souls game straight up, but like all the enemies respawn. The levels are super interconnected, like you know, multifaceted level design. You fight like a big boss in the end and stuff and it moves and is connected in a world that you come back to at your Firelink shrine to upgrade stuff and move forward. When you die, all the enemies come back and you got to go back and you don't drop your souls or anything like that. So, Castlevania, Metroid Vania. Well, I mean, the biggest difference between Castlevania, Metroid Vania is that that's traditionally done best in 2D, right? And chat, yeah, you're not wrong. All all Dark Souls, Demon Souls, Souls games are is Castlevania and 3D for the most part, but like very well executed. The problem is the 3D Castlevania games aren't done super well. Some of the old ones, you know. So anyway, yeah, some levels feel like they're interconnected and but you're interconnected by a uh like a teleporter. So I guess not. You know, 3D Metroid Vania in a way that that's pretty much what a lot of Souls games are. Not exactly the same, but either way, all I'm saying is that I was not expecting this to be that. And I'm sort of like pleasantly surprised by the way we're doing stuff and how things are happening. It's kind of like fascinating. hacking duration. I can get a big upgrade now. Defensive units are a class of weapons designed to overcome overpower opponents. They can decisively turn a fight. Yeah. Okay. So that my defensive gun is on down abilities. More repairing 1,200 overdrive. Hey, I can afford all this cuz I've been killing so many dudes. They don't want you hoarding ammo. No, they sort of give you resources the way that like a a boomer shooter does, which you clear out an area and then you get a bunch of rewards, you know, after you've beaten it. It's like, here's all your stuff. Go get it. Upgrade my side guns. That's a good point. It's from here. Yeah. Level one can be equipped with the tram terminal rate of Oh, okay. So, all the basic stuff we want to get cuz the basic stuff just unlocks it. I see. I wasn't doing a lot of this. Yeah, guns are disposable. They're they're meant to be like cycled. They're resources, not permanent upgrades, which is kind of very Boomer shooterish. There's a lot of old school in this game, you know? There's a lot of like very classic game design things here, which is maybe why it's tickling dad brain so much. Rate of fire. I'll buy that. cool. And I can talk to you because we got a cabin key, right? Pressure bot data. Oh, I Oh, literally bingo. I'm an idiot. It's literally bingo. I'm an idiot. I did not get why I was unlocking stuff. I did not get that. I'm literally just playing bingo. Uh, Jack Ro, thank you. We have new things. What's that? What are you doing? Hey, look. This terminal has bot data saved in it. You can learn more about the Cradle's bots with this. Wasn't exactly dying to find out. What? Really? But you're always like, "What the hell is this?" So, I thought you'd be interested. What you doing? Touche. I knew that sound from a mile away. [ __ ] I knew that sound from a mile away. Shout outs to Capcom for sponsoring the stream chat. We're playing Pragmata. For those of you that don't know what this is, it's available now on PlayStation, Xbox, Switch 2, and PC. Point Pragmata or follow the pinned link in the chat on YouTube and Twitch to learn more about the game. There's also a demo if you want to check it out. Not a Mega Man game, but it's close.

I had to shoot its face. That was cool. You had to shoot it in the face to stop it from doing this. Neat. Pretty neat. I like it that the game's introducing new stuff to us constantly. You know, every time we figured out one thing, we we mess up some dudes with it. And then here's another new thing. I love it. Finally, we did it. You're doing great, Diana. You're doing great, Hugh. I guess we'll go back outside. Oh, is that the That's the way outside cuz we unlocked the shortcut. I missed. Whoa. Two space babies. I see exactly what I need to do now. Holy moly.

Yeah, there it is. A basketball hoop. I can't wait to get back to the shelter. You're going down, dude. Dashing back and shooting the guy is sick. I got it. Boom. Boom. You know the child can ball. Okay. Where's our checkpoint at? Is it right here? It is. Hey, and look at this. Unlock the shortcut to the other area. Yeah. We don't have like a map where we can see where all of those things are. But oh, there's a safe box somewhere in here, too. But we have a decent idea from here. The business district is the one that my my [ __ ] ass has not gotten a lot of stuff. So, I'm assuming the business district is just down there. So, I'm looking at this backwards. It says I'm there, but I'm not. No, I have to go back. And it's here to the right. Wait. Yeah, for back is to there. Business district is is it connected? Looks like I have to get there from side alley. Let's check it out. Oh, because I think it's a new area. Should we take a break? Nah. Gonna watch people playing Tekken in Greetings. This is EDIS. Enacting attack protocol. Permission to commit acts of control violence granted. Eliminating this excess life form for the preservation of our pristine home. You We're not alone. over there. Not again. No way. This day just keeps on getting worse. Get closer to where we'll be. How you like this? Okay, we need the other decodes. I missed, but I kind of didn't. I think guns, brother. Damn racing again. Smash. I'm trying to shoot him. Free me from this prison. I can't. Let's go. And its mouth. Q. You're so visceral. Boy, helpful. I can still samurai. I'm totally out of ammo. What? Uh where something new? This is a crazy ass boss fight, bro. That is nothing.

Hey, don't sweat. Teammates look out for each other and we're a team, The stage of history. The comm's tower. We made it. Yeah. Let's go. I got to call home. That was a really cool boss fight. Yeah, but first I got to get in touch with Earth. I like it that it was like also pretty challenging, you know, was not super easy. Welcome back to the stage of history. Man, need us again. I can't do anything. Or can I? Let's see. How about here? The pterodone. We got these other stops as well. There's got to be something there we can use. Okay. Transports. Yeah.

Once we're good to go, let's head to the terror dome and help. Shelter license key authenticated. New functions have been added to the cabin system. Shelter level upgraded. Central terminals now loaded with shiny new stuff. RM replicator gamma now online and ready to serve. I have a few of these now. Even big bots don't stand a chance when we work together. CRT TV. Let's go play some Melee. What a bulky looking monitor. It's like a box. I wonder what it plays. She'll be good there for a few hours. Watching when there's always something on. Earth things are fun. Yay. Let's play. You can you dribble? Just starts tearing the court up. Hey H cat, you okay? Not hurt, are you? Nice pass, kiddo. Even big bots don't stand a chance. Crosses the kid over together. Shelter level upgrade upgrade limits expand across the shelter. Oh, okay. Okay, these are becoming way more valuable. Dude, I feel like the gun is one of the best things that you could upgrade. Like, straight up. The gun is too good. Locked. A hacking. You can now print mode chips to change your hacking mode. Each mode triggers different effects when enemies are open. For example, offense mode turns open nodes into offensive nodes, boosting the damage on your next attack. confuse. Will it hit other bots? Wow, that seems valuable. Yeah, mods during the hack itself. That seems very valuable. causing friendly fire. Yeah. Open node turns into offensive node when hacking enemies that are exposed. Passing through the offensive nodes or gunfire will increase the damage of the next hack. I need to see this in in action. Auto hacking unlocks auto hacking while hacking with LT and R to activate. Consumes a small amount of hacking gauge automatically complete the hack. Cannot be used while error nodes are active. Whoa, interesting. So, but it uses up resources. H object scan. Give me that. Crazy kid. EC thrusters. Oh my god. You get a Ukami. Holy moly, Feeling functional. Dude, this gameplay is starting to look insane. This [ __ ] is starting to look crazy. Unlocks bot scan.

I don't have the resources. Hacking gauge gain. An upgrade to enhanced Diana's hacking gauge. Increased hacking gauge buildup from completed hacks. Another hacking node slot. I want this mod slot, but they're expensive. the damn dad simulator working out. It's pretty good. I mean, it's pretty it's pretty good. She's like, I know kung fu. Um, we got a cabin.

Thought I had to hack it. Hey, look at all those beautiful rewards, chat. The fastest anyone's ever completed it. That's insane. Ever. This is pretty sick. I didn't get anything on this stamps board yet. Not everything. What's the rewards here? Legion zero outfit. Dronehive. I must outfit. You can update your outfits here. Triple bingo. Congratulations. So, what does Triple Bingo do? A hacking node that disrupts enemy actuators, temporarily stopping their movement. Repeated use of the same enemy reduces its effectiveness. So you can only use it so much. They just get stuck. That's really good. Reduces damage received by 20% when your You have quite the eye organ. Finish it. War complete. Wonderful. Secret report. Red gate key. Might just buy that cuz that stuff's Stuff's mad good. Secure the terterodome entrance red zone. And that's why we buy it. And that's why we buy it. You have quite the eye organ.

Flaccid Pancake as well. Thanks, man. You know what's crazy about this game is that it's really polished. Like, ridiculously polished. I think that's the thing that's blowing my mind the most about this entire experience. that so much about this just feels like man they were they were it's very smooth. Oh yeah, I guess like the long delay. I mean if that was the reason it's just so damn polished, dude. Did take six years in development. You're not wrong. Um, let me go back Title screen. I'm going to update the um, what's it called? I'm going to update the uh, path tracing. You can buy new slots if you finish the VR missions. I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it. Why did that get locked out? Oh, cuz it turns frame gen on by default. That's why. That's why I get it. There was a reason why you were excited. You weren't excited for any of this. You weren't excited for nothing. Before this got announced, it wasn't even anything. And now it's really a thing. Really? What' you find? Ah, the ball's rolling away. I think I put the ball away, but somehow it rolls off. So, I pick it up to put it back, but end up playing with it again. That's just what it wants. Sometimes toys and books just pull your strings like that. Pull my strings? How? Beats me. Maybe they don't like being left alone. You I've got a surprise. You're going to love it. Huh? You. Thanks for everything. So, do you like it? It's a that cat again. I drew lots, but this one turned out the best. So, I'm giving it to you. She's getting better at drawing. Good. Shows you're a real cat lover. She's getting better at drawing. Like, that one's better than that one. Huh. I wonder if she's The pictures are going to get better. Oh my god.

Holy [ __ ] She improves quicker. Hold on a second, Chad. Hold on. Check on a food here. Look at this crazy path tracing over here. Look at this wild ass path tracing in the ground. It's nuts. Oh yeah, I got to put on the new outfits. I need to check it out. I can't help it, dude. I saw that goddamn big old burger ad and as the the typical beefcake American that I am, I'm really doing it. I'm really doing it. Time to consume. Time to consume is 920 calories. [ __ ] it, bro. I only ate once today. [ __ ] it, bro. I can lettuce wrap it. I'll get that fresh. You need lettuce wraps to be fresh. The SCOP begins. Okay. All right. We're going to do another taste test. Yeah, that is a uh that's from Carl's Jr. and I have a Carl's Jr. next to me that is like very good. Like awkwardly tasty and they're usually really bad. Hardy/ Carlles Jr. They're usually really bad. So that was the one that tasted good and I was like, "Wo, this is weird." weird. So, I think it's like a franchise where the quality is just going to rapidly change depending on where you go. Depends on Yeah, exactly. It depends on location. They usually suck. They usually suck. Maybe I'll play over there next. Dude, I look like a character out of Halo. That's hilarious. Master Chef, you know why? Well, yeah, that thing. I'm so blown away by how good this game controls. Look at all the suits here. You What kind of clothes do you like? Is your suit your favorite? Favorite? This is more like a uniform than anything. I'm not wearing it to look cool. Just got to get the job done. Really? That's boring. Let's find something that suits you better. Oh, here we go. Back to training. Collect seven signal data in 60 seconds. Signal data. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. Oh. Oh. H. Oh. No. slippery. Missed it. All right. Of course. Of course. Of course. Don't worry about it. One shot, one kill. Defeat enemies with weapons. General purpose, just defeat enemies with weapons. Just shoot them. I just got to shoot them. There's a lot of these guys. Let's go. Yep. Yep. Give me all the stuff. I got to go back to the first levels, too. and look up all the things that we missed. Survive the lasers for 50 seconds. Oh joy. Oh joy. Yo, Leezy. Uh, toporic. Thank you. Tron ass Tron music, dude. Oh, this is going to be so damn easy. My god. Uh-oh. Chill. glad I saw that. Yes. Complete without dodging. Get out. There we go. Boss or something. Thank These are the hardest challenges in the game, chat. In fact, last time I checked, Capcom told me that they planned on no one on Twitch having the mental capability of getting through these or YouTube. So, the fact that we're the first ones to do it feels very good. Uh, that's it. some stamps. He's hacking no duration by 20%. Oh, you have quite the eye organ. Direct hits from enemies no longer reset the hacking matrix. Bingo. It's not bad. Well done. That's the bingo. A hacking node that exploits enemy weaknesses, making the next hack deal critical damage and more easily staggering the target. Oh my god. Look at that crazy. Look at that. Whoa. Did you see that thing? That crazy ass thing. Much appreciated. Getting spoiled. Yeah, what's that? Let's try it out. This horrible thing. Horribly detailed. Whoa. Dang. It had It had things on its nuts. Oh, no. It had exposed parts on its nuts. I did not see that. I was only shooting it in the face. All right. Okay. And all right. Um Oh, that's where we wanted to go. So many mods. He says hacking node duration by 20%. Um hacking node duration. Interesting. reduces damage received by 20% HP is below 50. I never plan on getting hit. Yeah, I think we're good. You can now switch hacking modes via the tram terminal menu. offense mode. Got to see what this is like, chat. Dang, I have nothing mods. You got the slot currency. let's go get her out of there. You telling me? Mod slot. Try that. 54%. That's insane, dude. I'm assuming it was back here. Yeah, this is where I first remember seeing this stuff. Yo, MDJ, thanks for the prime. Good. Somewhere over the rainbow. Take I just want to see what what it did. to hack it again when it's indar. When it's all up indar. Where was this place? Is it? Yeah, it's past here. doing my part. Crunchy. Where the Is that a shortcut? Oh. Whoa. Oh. Kind of. Ah. It's leading me on a path that's able to do all this. What do you mean I can't? Something's aiming at us. Oh, something is aiming at us. Something is aiming at us. Storage expander expands the upper limit of Diana's hacking gauge. That's cool. She got her EIG pretty much. Yeah. So, how do I get in there? How do I get there? There's a box over here. Oh my god. Was this Jesus? was there the whole time. Was there the whole time? It's my turn. Interesting. So, that just does damage, too, Okay. I got to figure out how to get access to this thing. The map gives a hint. No, no, no. Does it? I wish I could see where I am. It It says here as if like this is the area, but h it's got to be around here. And it's totally not. That's right. So this is this is the Okay. Right. Oh, we have to go to We have to go to this place to get it. It looks like it. Yeah, it looks like we need to go to concourse to get access to it because look, there's no Earth memory. The Earth memory is up here. I mean, I guess I guess let's go back to the shelter. Exploration. Let's run around. Oh, it's definitely an action game. This is definitely an action game. Assuming it's up here. What the heck? Where did the wall go? It was just a hologram. Might be more of these things around here, bro. There's elusory walls. There is Dark Souls walls. If we needed any more confirmation that this game is the closest possible thing to a Capcom Dark Souls, I think we just got it. Like my theory is right or long behold my latest creation, the hollow wall. At first glance, it looks almost real, but the tactile inspection quickly proves otherwise. They even installed the very first model, right? To celebrate the monumental breakthrough. Theoretically, I've always known it was possible. Projection data combined with Luna filament solidification. Proper testing require a real experimental setup. Huge power supply. This guy's yapping. I don't standard personal limited data. There's irrelevant. What truly matters is exploring the endless possibilities. Sharon, you need to hold off. Too much yapping. Is there another one? Illusory wall. Sharon, chill. Damn, bro. Okay, back to whence we came. Right. That was kind of neat. Turn to the schlitter. Go grab the borger. My god, Chad. That's [ __ ] amazing. Holy hell. It's actually amazing. I don't get it. I don't understand how this could be so freaking delicious. Burger. It's so good. I took a bite without you. Yeah, I did. I did. Jesus, dude. The Carl's Jr. Superstar. Yeah, usually trash, but I got a good one. Man, most Carl's Juniors went down in quality in my opinion. But we got one of these on the burger taste test night. And I've got it again right now. It's mad good. Holy hell. It is hidden. Something about it. Perfect ratio. Not too much bread at all. Holy [ __ ] Here's the problem. It's $10. This thing used to be three bucks, chat. Yep. The whole point of hamburgers and cheeseburgers is that they're supposed to be cheap. They're not cheap. Just the burger. 10 [ __ ] bucks, dude. It's really good. [ __ ] I don't get the fries. How much without the delivery fee? It was nine bucks without the delivery fee. Pretty much 10 with tax. Dollar menus don't exist anymore. Go to the dollar menu and things are like three bucks. The thing is, the point of this is that this is as good as I remember. It's as good as it was me growing up. And the point of it was that this sandwich didn't cost a lot. Like fast food did not cost a lot. So things like burgers and things like that were cheap food. This was cheap food. Yeah. Remember the $6 burger, Carl's Jr.? Yep. You remember, Chris? And no [ __ ] It was good. $6 burger when it came out was good. Going to keep raising because people keep buying it. No, no. That is not what's happening to like Taco Bell and McDonald's especially, which are like the big ones. No, no, no, no, no. They're not making money. They're not buying it anymore. So most fast food chains aren't making that much money. Unless you go to Costco. That's how you know it's rough out there, chat. Whenever I go to Costco, there's a massive line for food, like a big line, I'm not saying the food is bad. I'm saying people are able to eat without spending over $5, you know. That's it. People can get hot dog and a drink for less than two bucks. So that's what I used to do. I borrow my mom's Costco card. We eat at Costco. It's a big…
