Host describes discovering a Star Fox Direct teaser just before the show and the initial surprise of a Star Fox 64 remake being announced.

Maximilian Dood reacts to the Star Fox Direct reveal, curious about a Switch 2 Star Fox reimagining that leans into Star Fox 64’s rails while upgrading visuals and scale.

Summary

Maximilian Dood dives into the Star Fox Direct reveal, sharing his instant reactions to Nintendo’s comeback bait and the surprising visual rework. He leans into the “Star Fox 64 again?” moment, noting how the new trailer updates character designs and stage variety while seemingly preserving the core rail-shooter formula. Maximilian praises the scale and newer lighting, but he also worries the experience risks feeling repetitive unless new gameplay hooks (co-op, new modes, or expanded briefings) flesh out the familiar path. He flags the Switch 2’s power as a driver for the upgrade and looms over the possibility of a future, more ambitious Star Fox that departs beyond Lilac Wars. Throughout, he toggles between genuine excitement for a modern Star Fox, and a desire for bolder experimentation beyond redoing Star Fox 64. He also riffs on how the star of the show (Star Fox) stacks against prior Star Fox entries like Star Fox Zero and Star Fox Assault. Finally, he loops back to other fresh reveals in the stream (Dead as Disco, Soros) and ends with a personal push to actually play the updated Star Fox 64-era experience and hope for future evolution.

Key Takeaways

  • Star Fox 64 is being remade again for the Switch 2, with updated visuals and the Lilac Wars opening reinterpreted for modern hardware.
  • Maximilian notes the trailer emphasizes scale, big environments, and lighting which makes the rail shooter feel more epic even when the gameplay loops resemble the original game.
  • The Direct trailer includes new mission briefings between stages and multiple difficulty modes (easy, normal, expert) to extend replayability beyond a single run.
  • Online private matches and four-vs-four Battle Mode are highlighted, with team Star Fox vs Team Star Wolf adding competitive variety without strict co-op play in the base mode.
  • Maximilian hopes for a future, bolder Star Fox that experiments with rail-shooter conventions (multi-player co-op, new mechanics) beyond a one-to-one remake.
  • Dead as Disco and Soros are teased in the same stream, showcasing Maximilian’s appetite for fresh indie and niche titles alongside Nintendo content.

Transcending history and the world. A tale of dudes and souls eternally retold. We don't need to shine to see how far we've come on our journey. How far you have to go? Searching for deep in the night. I pray in my heart for that special light. Shower me with love. Shower me with power to sh. I can't imagine. Yo, what's up, dudes? All right, chat. Uh, wow. Things are happening. Things are indeed going down. My god. Uh, trying to fix Oh god. Oh jeez. Hi. Hello. Hi. Wow, that's all messed up. Let me fix that. OBS always does this to me. I don't know why. Um, anyway. Hi. Uh, Star Fox came back. Yeah, that's crazy. Uh, with crazy timing. Like with crazy timing. Uh, we got things to play. I want to try Dead as a Disco or Dead as Disco. Uh, it's out now. And then, um, we got to play more Soros. I really want to play Sorrowos. I like all these things. I want to play them. Um, Concor, thanks for the Prime, dude. Take, uh, take a little bit of a break from Invincible Versus and stuff like that. Stranger Than Heaven. Also, Xbox gameplay thing. They have a trailer. I thought there was like a giant showcase and I'm like, do they have just have a trailer? Do they just have a trailer? Um, Fiery, thanks for the prime, dude. Trailer, end of stream if I want to watch the full stream. Um, ease a section. Thanks for the five gift subs. I don't want the whole direct. I just want to see the game for the sake of the game. You know, there's been trailers already. I'm curious. I'm curious. The trailer is amazing. I'll watch the trailer. Yeah, I'll watch the trailer. Main topic. Let's get right into it. Nintendo's out here with the most hidden Nintendo Direct, dude. 10 minutes before the Nintendo Direct drops. They're like, "Hey, we have a Star Fox Direct happening in 10 minutes." And it's like, I missed that completely. Uh cuz I was just doing things and then I went upstairs and I checked on an upload on YouTube and I saw that Nintendo was live and I was like, "What?" And then I caught the very tail end of it and then I saw some wild Vtuber stuff and I was like, what am I look what? All right, I just got to wait. So I'm like, let me just let me just watch this later. Um, and then Twitter was just blowing up. And then I started retweeting stuff because yeah, as we understand it now, they're pretty much remaking Star Fox 64 for the fourth time. Um, which is a choice. And the character designs are crazy. They're a lot different. Uh, third. Oh, I I beg to differ. Hold on. So, let's let's talk about that. Star Fox. Okay. Star Fox 64 has made a third time. You're right. Star Fox. Star Fox 64 is practically a remake of Star Fox. It's all about the Lilacot Wars. It's all about Andros, you know, and his invasion on uh Corneria, right? So, that's Star Fox. So, they do that again in Star Fox 64. It's like the same thing. And then after that, the events go to a couple of different games, right? And then we get to Star Fox 64 3D, which was an actual just like remake. And then which is which is legit just the exact same game. And then they have Star Fox Zero, which is like, okay, yeah, Star Fox, so this is going to be all different, right? And then it opens with the Lilac Wars. I from what I remember, it opens with like the Lilac Wars, and you're literally on the assault on Corneria again. and and Ad Andros is the big bad guy. And I'm like, so this is the fifth time we've done this. And they are becoming exceedingly efficient at it. Um, so anyway, it's it's technically the fourth remake of Star Fox, which is wild. Absolutely wild. Uh, I asked Jessica like, "Does the DS version like that?" She's like, "No, it's got it's more unique than that." Um, so anyway, without passing mega judgment, I haven't seen a lot of gameplay and stuff like that. I think my initial shock of it just being Star Fox 64 again doesn't give me the most immediate like, woo, like, dude, that game still plays really good, you know? Like, if anything, I would like to see what in 2026 we could do with like a rail shooter. How do we push rail shooters beyond, you know? And it seems like, nah, we perfected this [ __ ] We perfected this [ __ ] back in like 1996 or something like that. Got to keep doing it. Um anyway, let's fire up the entire thing. I want to check this thing out. Don't fix what's not broken. Yeah. And again, Star Fox fans are going to buy it and eat it up because whenever again, I love Star Fox 64. It's actually my favorite N64 like game as as just like a singular game that came out right on N64. loved it the moment it came out. The rumbling controller, all that [ __ ] I just it was a great time. And I was also a massive fan of uh of rail shooters. I just really dug rail shooters at that time. Panzer Draon, Star Fox, they were just like right next to each other. So to me, it's like I dig this game, but it still plays really good, you know? It still is really good on we fired it up not that long ago on N64. It still is good. So, let's see. All right. Nintendo Direct. Let's do it. What is Miiamoto going to put in front of my face? He's definitely going to talk about the movie. I'm Sheru Miamoto. Last month, we released the Super Mario Galaxy movie, which was enjoyed many people around the world. To everyone who saw it in theaters, thank you very much. The movie features a certain charact part of the Super Mario series. Why is trying to go to the movie? No, no, no. Let's not do movie footage. No, no, no. We saw the movie. Now Fox and his men return in their own Nintendo Switch 2 games, right? This game is called Star Fox. You know what it is? The epitome It is the epitome of modern logo design. like Star Fox SNS. I'm sorry I'm going to be pausing this every once in a while. This is the epitome of classic logo design, you know, where you have this really cool logo and we're just going to minimalize the [ __ ] out of it. Uh either way, I really dug the old Star Fox like orange on purple and blues and stuff like that. I thought it was cool. I thought it was cool, but I I get it. I think it's clean. You know what? I still think it's clean. And now I'll pass it over to Kisuman. Koisum Manisan. Hello everyone. I'm Yoshiaki Koisumi. From here on I will be your Did you just say it's the same? Whoa. Whoa. Did I just look at the YouTube chat and y'all saw that Star Fox logo right here and you saw this and you just said it's the same thing? Are we being serious? Did you just Are you I mean, if you're deaf, I completely understand. I get it. I get it. If you if if you're either like colorblind completely or deaf, it's cool. Then yeah, it's actually pretty similar. It's actually very similar. You're right. You're right. Star Fox is based on the Nintendo 64 game Star Fox 64, but the visuals have been completely updated. All of the characters in the game have also been redesigned. All right, let's take a look. I saw the VTuber thing. Let me see this. Whoa, bro. This is opening like Star Wars. This is kind of amazing. Whoa. Oh, this is kind of amazing. Atmospheric entry complete. Extend the wings. They're going back to basics. They're doing what Tekken ain't always should have done. G diffuser systems check. Sound off team. Slippy here. So far so good. This is Peppy. All systems. Py looks cool. Falco here. G diffuser seems Fal looks okay until you see his legs, which I got spoiled on. Enemy targets up ahead. Let's rock and roll. Wow. What you're seeing is footage of the game in action. While stage layouts have been kept the same, the visuals have received a major upgrade. And I do I do think like what they're getting right here, which is the thing that which is the thing that the Panzer Draon remakes sort of miss a little bit, uh, is scale. It actually has really good scale. I like it a lot. Flippy, stay in form. Banter between characters is also bad. Now you've done it, Slippy Bogey. Big environments, you know. Cover me while I finetune my sensors. Oh, you got him. Thanks, Fox. Man, it is just Star Fox 64. Wow. Hey there, General. There's got to be new stuff on this cut scene. But as it happens, my team's This is Fox Mloud, leader of Okay. The Star Fox mercenary squad. Prep the R Wings. We've got a job to do, Star Fox. We're going to take the system back from Andros, one planet at a time. Falco Lombardi is their ace pilot and Fox's rival. Sounds perfect. There's no way Andros would expect us to launch. He looks like a parrot. What? What? I mean, I guess he was always a parrot, but now I'm like really noticing it. He's like a He's like a bird that goes in a bird cage. He eats seed. There. You up for another challenge, Fox? Scans are showing unidentified energy emanating from with Lippy toad is the team's engineer extraordinaire. So I think it was Doto or somebody on Twitter said, "Bro, can we take the DLSS5? Can we take the DLSS5 filter off of Slippy?" And I was like, "Oh god. Oh god. This greasy lizard frog is a frog. Incredible is a toad. Do you realize how rare it is to experience a stable war channel? Did you see the distortions? That base is the gateway to the wider system, Fox. And Peppy Hair is their strategic mastermind. Bro, Star Fox isn't spunky at all. He's like flat. Sorry, I'm pausing this a lot. He's so flat. Like, is he sad because his dad died or some [ __ ] He's so flat. Holy [ __ ] Veteran pilot into enemy space. Look at Look at the life in his eyes. It's just as not this [ __ ] again. Holy hell. Will this stupid rabbit shut the hell up? Mastermind and veteran pilot into enemy space. Just this. Hit them quick and hit them hard. Pepe looks cool. The fate of the light. Zero issues with the rabbit. On their shoulders. We're doing this again. Is a high performance aerospace fighter piloted by Fox and his crew. They really didn't do any crazy redesigns to the Rwing. This looks really similar to, and we just played it not that long ago. Uh what was it? Star Fox Assault. What was the one on I always get confused the one on DS and the one on GameCube. Was that Assault? Was the Sar Fox? Not Zero. No, Assault is the Gamecube one. Yeah, they have like the super Bandai Namco like techno ships and stuff like that. It's like close to like Gundam looking stuff. Um, it looks like that. It It has like a very similar sort of like design to it or launch bombs that cover a wide area. The Rwing can break boost and barrel roll and barrel roll to repel enemy fire. Did you do anything else? And even somersault. Oh, it is the same. It is the same besides the R1. Wow. I mean, it looks great. Holy [ __ ] Called the Landmaster. It does look really good. It is Star Fox 64 again, but it looks really good. And a modified exploratory submersible called the blue marine can also be a level that depending on not frequently received on at least the first few runs in Star Fox 64. The campaign will take you to diverse planets as you seek out the enemy's stronghold to restore peace in the lilac system. Corneria is a planet teeming with life and the beating heart of the system. Wow. That's that that area. Wow. H looks crazy covered in ice and snow. All right, this this one this has gotten definitely a big upgrade. Solar is the lilac system scorching hot second star. This is a much better realization of the old one. This is also mad cool. Holy hell. Ocean planet that was stripped of all its natural resources. Pull your cat. There's also it is the same things you do though. It certainly is still laser tech. And the inside of a nebula from planet surfaces to outer space. A variety of stages await. With free flying dog fights in all range modes, don't let anything through and massive boss battles. You can look forward to intense aerial combat. Holy [ __ ] that looks cra that looks it looks amazing. It's crazy because we've done this a billion times. Like Star Fox 64 was already an insanely like replayable game. So you've just like played out those levels a billion times and then they would come out with like game after game after game that were doing the same thing again and again and again and again and again and now we're just doing it again and again. It's like I think I I think for me it would just be so sick if we had a again Star Fox 64 is great, but I think it would be so sick if we had a modern interpretation of what a rail gun shooter could be. It's great that they don't want to switch the formula cuz Star Fox 64 is just one of the best rail shooters ever, but not trying something new with it outside of visuals like anything. It's like it, dude. This is the the exact same games, man. Depending on the objectives you complete, the number of enemies shot down, and other factors. I wonder if they're going to show Falco going into the waterfall, which has been happening for the past 30 years. Stages with a different approach to find ways through that are Bro, I haven't watched this, brother. Brother, I haven't watched this. I saw the end, brother. the pre-watched legit pre-watched. You'd better be right about dude. That's the second thing because we've been looking at this [ __ ] We've been legit looking at this [ __ ] forever. Scenes have also been added. These include never-before-seen mission briefings between stages, allowing you to learn more about the characters and the Star Fox. Falco's chicken legs. Fall in team. How are we doing? You can choose between easy, normal, and expert difficulty settings. When playing on easy difficulty, your shield gauge will be actual difficulty isn't baked into the levels, making it ideal for novice pilots. Challenge mode. You can replay stages you've already cleared. Complete a variety of objectives that Yeah, they have so they have to they have to fill this out in some way because like Star Fox 64, like even if you want to see all of the levels, if you know how to get to them all, it's like less than two hours, dude. Like a run in Star Fox is like borderline 15 to 20 minutes. It is not a super long game. And if if you run through the game just like on first playthrough, you can do I don't know, you can get like within 20 minutes a first playthrough done. It's not super hard either. And then if you do the other levels, which can be varying levels of challenge of like unlocking them and then maybe dying in some of the harder levels because they are path locked, you know, 15 to 20. No, man. You haven't played Star Fox 64? Like we we did we just we dude we just did this on Yo Video Games. We just did this and we were like, "Yeah, let's just see all all of the levels and it was under like 2 hours." If you don't know where to go, you would just be repeating levels. Don't get me wrong. New challenges to each mission that you won't Oh, it's cheaper. It's 50. Okay. Okay. You never played it? Okay. Yeah. It's not a super long game. It's about like replayability and getting better scores and finding how to kill every enemy. How do you unlock, you know, the accomplish of every single level? Take on these now. They're baking in all these normal or expert difficulty. All these additional challenges. Battle mode puts you in four versus four dog fights. Players are split between team Star Fox and Team Star Wolf. Then compete to earn the most points by clearing missions and taking down foes. You can select from three stages, each with its own rule set. Is there no like co-op thing? Is it only versus domination opponents and seize control of the zone around the satellite towers on Corneria. Damn, that DLSS kicking in. Star Fox completed the objective. I think one of the things that I was looking forward to the most when we were talking about a possible Star Fox game in the future was like, dude, how cool would it be to go through levels of Star Fox with four player co-op where everybody takes a character, you know, where we all like work together and do cool ship team up stuff with each other and stuff like that. Like that's what we were all hoping. We were we have we have been we were saying that like over a month ago. Um, and I don't think this is going to have any co-op. It's Star Fox 64, dude. They're not going to they're not going to render this from different character perspectives. Collect as many energy crystals as you can while dodging meteor or retrieve cargo from space pirates and take it to your base in sector Y. These are big old range mode missions. You can create private matches with your friends online or match up with random players from around the world, making for a variety of ways to join team battles. Plus, it kind of I'm kind of bugged that it's all range mode. The old range missions were my least favorite missions in Star Fox 64. They're not bad, but they're not as fun as the other ones. in game share via game chat. By holding your Joy-Con 2 controller like a mouse, you can seamlessly swap to mouse controlled targeting for intuitive aiming and steering. Wow, Slippy, stay in form. Cool. Okay, now you've done it, Slippy. Bogey on your tail. By sharing one of the Joycon 2 controllers with a second player, you can split pilot and gunner duties in co-op. We're entering. Well, you can do it in third person. Okay, interesting. Trash the place. I'll try this with JJ because she loves Star Fox. Like she loves Star Fox. Not even 64, just Star Fox in general. Dude, even my wife who who like loves Star Fox. when she found out she I I I told her it's a Star Fox 64 remake and she's like no even she was like no we've already had those like again even even her that is like not super into the gaming sphere like crazy she was like again is not a new game I'll target the lights on the left this looks mad Wow is that cat what the [ __ ] it's a trap these look [ __ ] amazing dude I love The lighting. Oh my god. A swarm of lowly flies. Get ready team. We're approaching. Oh, we're not going to get the old We're not going to get like daddy daddy squealled real good before he died. Like, we're not going to get the address. I failed you. Like, all the cocky little freaks. Damn, dude. Star Fox 64 is so quotable. They need to have DLC of you of you adding the old voice lines in airspace. Racist Falcoh. Okay. Don't let him know. What did you think? As you just saw, Fox and Company have a more animallike design in this game. Reborn exclusively for the Nintendo Switch 2 system. Star Fox launches June 25th. Wow, that is soon. By the way, this game also supports How weird of it to just like you wouldn't save this for the Nintendo Direct. That could be in the next month or so. Maybe they're trying to get ahead of leaks or something like that. Maybe they're Maybe they're trying to get ahead of this [ __ ] They don't give a [ __ ] I mean, it's it's a big this is a big Who's making this, by the way? That's a big It's not even a No, it's not a small game. This is like a big This is a game like this. This doesn't look like Star Fox Zero looked, dude. Where it was just like very visually blleh. Like, no, it actually has a visual identity, you know? Like I think some of the stages especially look better than even the characters. character avatars which let you change your face off might have helped your character like this. This is the VTuber [ __ ] that I saw. This is crazy. This almost makes me want to play this with your video games, but it doesn't just capture your head movement. What are we going to play? There's like no but we have to fight each other or something like that. Blinks. and your eyebrow movement as well. Like it that they're explaining this like we have no idea. We've never seen it before. Like this is new technology. Look at that. No, dude. They have to have like the space behind them zooming by and [ __ ] When using character avatars to look like a Star Fox character. Will, can you please hang up the call? I'm just trying to play Mario Galaxy here. Will, go to bed. playing other games can also see. He's like, "Do a barrel roll." [ __ ] Please go to bed. Let's rock and roll. Your new look. But this game also supports the Nintendo 64 controller. Those who played the Nintendo 64 version can enjoy controls that feel even closer to the original. It's probably going to play exactly the same. Super Nintendo Entertainment System. The Star Fox series has had a long legacy on Nintendo platforms. Along that journey, it set out for adventure. This still is not on Switch 2, is it? Join the battle in the Super Smash Brothers series. We're grateful that you've continued to support the series for more than 30 years. If you've never experienced the series before, we hope you'll give Star Fox a try. I think they've done a very good job with scale, right? If there was one thing even the old N64 game did well, it gave you a sense of like you're in something very epic, right? Like the the space around you, how it's rendering things in, like it it did a very good job at making all of that feel like super impactful. If there was one thing that was like missing I remember from some of the Rwing missions uh in Star Fox Assault, the regular Rwing missions in Star Fox Assault and also Star Fox Adventure when you play as the ship levels in those, they're like these are okay, but they don't hit the same way that like Star Fox 64 does. And to in my opinion, even like games like Panza Dragon 1 and two on Sega Saturn, they feel smaller. Yeah. Things just feel like slightly off. like that they're not tuned to the ways that they have historically worked before. So, I kind of understand that like they've gotten criticism on that in the past with previous games that are all Rwing games or have Rwing missions and now they're like, "All right, so let's just copy the old [ __ ] you know. Finally, we'll finish this presentation by sharing the game's prologue, which depicts a past battle involving James Mloud, father of the protagonist Fox." Bro, they are really making them look like the puppets. I think that's the interpretation, right? The old SNES cover puppets. Is that what they're going for? These proportions are something. They look like big They They look like people in costumes, you know? I I'm curious. I I have to go back and compare and contrast because I think like the I saw the cover art for this. It looks identical to the old Star Fox um like SNES cover art. The past battle involving James Mloud, father of the protagonist Fox. Thank you very much, dude. Bro, the part that got me the most excited was like the opening. the very opening where it opens like Star Wars and I'm like, are we leaning into this? And actually, it is just Star Fox 64 again. And I'm like, oh, the music though is Star Wars A. Star Fox, this is Corneria Defense Force headquarters. Do you read? Loud and clear. James Mloud here, General. Star Fox is on approach to Venom. No indications. suspicious activity. We'll let you know what we find. Proceed. He looks cool as [ __ ] You're the first to set eyes on that place in years. And thank you for accepting this mission change. For those that don't know, you're the only one that can handle it. General Pepper, do you read me? This isn't in the old game at all. Something's jamming long range comms. Stay sharp. Cool. We get to play this. You seeing this, James? According to my instruments, the atmosphere is highly toxic. And we're doing this job for next to nothing. We're supposed to be mercs, not a good guy. There's more at stake here than our bottom line. Big. Yeah, sure. General Pepper says his people have detected signs of activity on Venom's surface. He's concerned it has something to do with Dr. Andros. It's been years since Andros was banished here, James. If the atmosphere is poisonous, all the more reason to figure out what's going on. Dr. Andros made mistakes and he paid the price for them. But do you do you think if we complain like we did for Sonic, they will change the character design? Bro, the game is already going gold. No. Like the they're the the game code is already being pressed to cartridges. Like no, there's nothing is changing. It comes out in like a few weeks. No. But whatever else he is, he is a genius. Maybe he found a way to survive. Our leader, such a bleeding heart. Where'd they come from? Defensive formation. Eggma, where are you going? It's like you told me. I'm getting into formation. Little twotiming swine. What can I say? My new boss pays better. Ordinary. These are cool scenes. Must suffer death to all who stand in the way of my vengeance. Was that Dr. Andros? Don't let them escape. Do we get to play this? I really hope so. I hope it's not just a cut scene. I can't shake him. Hey, Peppy. Catch James. Is that how he dies? He saves Pepe. Peppy, are you there? Come in, Peppy. Do you read me? I'm losing altitude. Pepe, you need to get out of here. Warn the general. Not without you, James. That's an order. Pepe, keep an eye on Fox. Bro, I want to be able to play this. How sick would that be if you actually played out that sequence of him with the messed up [ __ ] missing messed up [ __ ] missing a wing as you're fighting just like a hundred of these dudes like I really hope so. I really hope that's playable. Is that it? That is it. It Oh my god, dude. I really hope that's not just a cut scene cuz that that to me is actually badass. That that enhances the experience a little bit, you know? that actually makes it better that you here's here's things that you can do that were not available in the original game. You know, I think that's actually mad cool if that is the case. Adding just like little bits of things here and there that flesh out the experience a little more. I really hope so. If it's a cut scene, it's like, okay, so we're just doing Star Fox 64 with cutscenes. Um, pricing it's 50 bucks. Yes, I'm very red. pricing. It's 50 bucks. Uh I I think it looks great. Whoever they got, do we know the actual developer or is it just presumed? I think whatever we're looking at, whoever the hell made it did a really damn good job at recreating some of the things that were missing from some of the other Star Fox Rwing games. Um which was that sense of scale and how everything like feels definitely a bit better. It's unfortunate that it is just the same exact gameplay things that we have seen time and time and time and time and time again. But I think the whole point of this, the character designs are something. I think the whole point of this is to try to reintroduce Star Fox to like a new audience. And they just are deathly afraid of trying anything like really new. Like they're just deathly afraid of it, man. It's been this way for a long time. like upwards of when was the 3DS remake? It's been a long time. So, h I hope it does well. I just hope it does well so that we eventually get a big grand like Star Fox game, like a really like a really big one. It's been like 15 years, you know? It's been 10 years since Star Fox Zero, but like this started happening around technically like Star Fox 3DS. Um, of course I'm going to buy it. No, I'm I'm actually looking forward to it. Star Fox 64 is amazing, but you can play this right now, right? Like Sans's cutscenes, you can play this right now and it still plays great. Like if you have an N64, it plays great on an N64. And then the Star Fox that's on Nintendo uh the Nintendo eShop, NSO, whatever it is, plays pretty good. It's pretty close. Let me see. Yeah, hold on a second. Let me do a comparison. Um, it feels like it could be a stepping stone to a grander Star Fox adventure. Yeah, but people have been saying that's in Star Fox Zero, dude. That's what That's what folks said before. Um, it felt like that from the from the Mario movie, you know? Hold on. Star Fox art. Uh, so here is Oh [ __ ] Yeah. Yeah. Give me right. And I still think this this has very 90sish charm. Right. I think the biggest difference is that this this feels like by every definition Star Wars AF and not Phantom Menace Star Wars. It feels very much anthropomorphic animal Star Wars. Um, and this Do I have the right size here? Yeah, here it is. Hold on a second. Trying to find a big render of it. There we go. Hopefully this is big enough. Um, and the character designs here are like fantastic Mr. Fox if not Dark Crystal. Looks like Jim Henson looks very different. Just like the interpretations of the characters and stuff. Granted, I don't think any of them have, you know, them have to cut off their legs because of gravity or some [ __ ] That old rumor. Um, Frank Oz versus Jim Henson. A little bit. A little bit. It looks like people in costumes. Pepe looks great. I think he looks great. KH. Thank you, chat. What level of furry is this? Wario X. Thank you. Simmons was talking about it. Level three. They're just a dog, right? It's just a dog. Level. It's like level two. 80%. No, it's like level one, two, or three. It's level two. This would have also been level two, H. It's growing on you. I feel like I will not be able to pull full conclusion until I see I see characters acting and emoting in the game more. Um, either way, I'm not blown away. I feel like the initial disappointment of it being a Star Fox 64 again is always going to be there. I I kind of just wanted something new. I just kind of wanted like what could you do with a rail shooter with modern technology and modern game design? Like how could we how could we make this crazy? And in my head, we already came up with like a few ideas of how you could do that with even four players in a in sort of like a game logic that keeps you engaged with each other and on the same rail and path where it's like, yeah, that'd be possible. You definitely could make something pretty crazy, especially like a co-op game where you team up with everybody else instead of just saving them at all times. Um, but it it feels like Miyamoto and the people that are behind Star Fox just do not want to move past the Lilac Wars, if not the Corneria Assault, because Star Fox 64 is too good. It's just too good. It's just too good. Nintendo doesn't want to take any more risks. I feel like it would if if they do enhance it a little bit and have moments where you can play as James or do these other things like in between. That could be cool. I think that actually could be very cool. 20 bucks. Thank you, dude. Chadam, thanks for the 20. Not liking is the music. I don't know. I listen to the 64 OST and it sounds better. Need to listen to more of it. I think some of the some of the ambient music during the conversation sounds very Star Warsy and I like it. like old school Star Warsy. Yeah. Yeah. Um maybe they're going to announce Star Fox 2 at Summer Games Fest. No, no, no, that's not happening anytime soon. The physical version is 60. Well, that's part of Nintendo's initiative, right? Where their physical games, their digital games are a little bit less expensive than their physical games. So that's something that they're they're doing recently. These are all new assets for the future of Star Fox. What if Falco and Fox look like this in the next Smash game? If there is a new Smash game, they're going to look like this. They're going to look like this and you're going to like it and you're going to play as them. Uh, do they have like I I think I saw renders. Star Fox renders. Oh [ __ ] No, they're up. history. That's a no for me, dude. That's a no from me, dog. Uh, his little fees and his It looks like a guy in a costume on stilts. I think that's what they're going for. I legit think these proportions don't work in Smash. Nah, you have to deal with it. That's what you're going to get now. Zero issues. Sure. It's peppy and slippy. Sure. Is this legs? Damn chat. We had to wait over a year since the launch of the Switch 2 and finally we got legs. Finally. Is this legs? it looks weird. It just looks weird. I think some of the other ones look cool. I think they just look a little off. They don't have their prosthetic legs yet. Marvelous. They called them boots in the movie. They called them boots in the movie. I don't know what to tell you. They're just cool space boots. They made it they made it a whole gag in the movie. You know, every meme that has ever existed for Star Fox was turned into a gag in the movie. Uh, Dark Dragon, thanks for the five. You will one v one this fox on Final Destination and you will like it. KH, thank you. Maybe less afraid of new things. The more we made the game we wanted, the story is finished. So, just keep doing it. I deeply appreciate the Final Fantasy 7 remake. That's the only that is the conclusion I am coming to, bro. Like really could have just been a onetoone recreation that just looks like like very good visuals just looks the same. All it's all it's coming to is that like oh like I I know I don't know what's going to happen in the next game. Like that's actually pretty exciting. That's actually pretty exciting to me. Anyway, it looks it does look [ __ ] nice though. It looks nice. Do they have Star Wolf render? Did they actually show Starwolf? What? As much as uh Star Fox 64 is good, Star Fox is always a step in the right direction, but is way too short. Interested. that there's a new Star Fox yet another remake. Um I didn't feel uh so to me I when we played Star Fox Assault again outside of the goofy control stuff even if we had a controlling perfectly the game plays out like a um oh god I forgot the name of it. Uh functionally the game plays out like a the bug game. What the [ __ ] is it, dude? Uh what the hell's the bug games? EDF. Yeah, it plays out like an EDF and very like funny stuff, you find a lot of bugs, too. It's very similar to like Earth Defense Force and you upgrade and you get new things and there's like this whole crazy [ __ ] It It reminded me of like this is what Earth Defense Force is like. And when you eventually get to the Rwing areas, which I think were weaker than even the ground missions, I thought the ground missions were actually more interesting. Um, at least to me. at least to me. So, I don't know. And then and then Star Fox Zero just like let's just take all the stuff that you like about Star Fox 64 and make it annoying. So, I don't know. I feel like there's just never been an opportunity to really lean into the the side of just it being a rail shooter and being comfortable with it being a rail shooter, right? And not wanting to deviate and do all this like other crazy [ __ ] to turn it into something else. Star Fox Assault did the same thing where it's just like here's an arena and you pretty much kill a bunch of dudes and and complete objectives in an arena. they just didn't feel as good. It was it was interesting. It was a bit different, but it didn't feel as good. So, to me, it was like, what if we just leaned into it being a really, really, really sick rail shooter? And I'm glad that they're doing it with this. It still is that, but it's like very It is It is the one of the better rail shooters ever, you know, like Ace Combat. No, Ace Combat. I I mean I haven't played a lot of Ace Combats, but Ace Combats aren't rail shooters. If you're looking for a jet style rail shooter, that would be Afterburner. And you to a to a degree Afterburner climax, you know? Um Ace Combat by definition is all range, right? Like you are you are in an you are in an area and you're engaging with the enemy with like a free and open environment. Rail shooters are you're literally on rails. You can go faster, you can go slower, but you can't deviate that much from what you have in that in that area. Anyway, very different. Like all the hype they made around the mouse and multiplayer are going to be testing bed for gimmicks. Uh like Star Fox usually is. Well, they're already doing the mouse with a bunch of stuff. So now I don't know. I don't know. You're in a fish tank on a roller coaster pretty much, you know. Damn, it looks pretty though. I tell you what, it looks really goddamn pretty. I like I like it that the Switch is getting games that look good. Let's rock and roll. Like it's it's You know what? You know what? I will give this credit. I had never seen this before it being on a Switch 2 ever and now I have. Everything that we usually see on Switch 2 is a presentation of something that you saw on something else and now it runs just on Switch 2. So it's like cool, that's crazy that it runs on a Switch 2. That's really cool. But I'm not given anything new. Like you've never seen this before and the Switch 2 is producing these visuals. Yeah, Bonanza is pretty much a good example of that where Donkey Kong was like, "Wow, look at all this crazy particle stuff they're doing. This is this is nuts." So, I think it's great that I did not know what a modern day Star Fox could look like and now it's only the Switch 2 that's able to produce that. I think that's cool. That's why this is surprising when you see this. Like, damn. Whoa. game in action while stage layouts have been kept. Dude, I wish they did [ __ ] where it's like, hey, here's four times the enemies, you know? That would be cool. That would be cool because we've played this [ __ ] 800 times. It would be neat if it was just like here is times four enemies. Whoa. And they all have to holy [ __ ] Clear them all out. You know, same. The visuals have received a major Banter between characters is also back. Now you've done it, Slippy. Bogey on You know what? Cover me while I find I legit think it is Monolithoft helping out with this. You know why? And as someone that has been around Simmons to be exposed to Monolithoft stuff a lot, they're really good at scale. They're really good at as as a support development studio with their environments and [ __ ] They're very good at that. So, what I'm what I'm also noticing is that in Monolith Soft games, even on Switch One, I was looking at how they're like rendering their environments and stuff, and it's like, dude, I barely ever see popping in these games, like they've done something to really ease the the the different the differentiating values of level of quality, level of detail as you get closer and closer to stuff. And I'm like, dude, I barely saw the transition. Like, I have to really pay attention. When I start looking at this, I see the same thing. Like I don't really see the level of detail like kick in in a way that's like super obvious. It just looks really smooth. And it's a Switch, too. It's like much less technologically capable than other modern hardware and I I can't see it, dude. Like every It's super subtle. It just looks mad good. We need your help, Star Fox. Do you prefer this kind of remake for Bloodborne if it were to happen? Dude, even if even if we got a Bloodborne remake, we don't want that [ __ ] to be one to one. They need to fix [ __ ] Like, there are gameplay things. I I want enhancements. Like, I wanted a Demon Souls upgrade from Bloodborne where it's like they added a ton of new animations and all that [ __ ] you know? Like, I want that. Yeah. I want there to be like new things I get to look at. I don't I can just go play the old Bloodborne, dude. It still looks great. You seem a little on edge, but as it happens, my team's This is Fox Mloud, leader of the fix. There's big issues in the game for uh there's a there's blood vial problems uh that mess up with the pace of the game, and there's also issues with gem farming later on when you're actually looking for gems and stuff. It's very cumbersome. It's It's just annoying. Starf Fox mercenary squad, prep the Rwings. We've got a job to do, Yeah, unique visceral animations for each weapon is all I've ever asked for. It's all I've ever asked for in Bloodborne. We're gonna take the system back from Andros, one planet at a time. would expect us to launch an assault there. You up for another challenge, emanating from within. Lippy Toad is the team's engineer extraordinaire. Incredible. experience a stable warp channel? Do you see the distortions? That base is the gateway to the wider system, Fox. mastermind and veteran pilot. Dance into enemy space. Just this. Hit them quick and hit them hard. I feel like if there's anybody who has issues with Peppe, I mean, Slippy looks like a little DLSS5 upgrade, but I I think Peppy is actually like perfect. I think the depiction, the voice, like everything just sounds good. I think it's pretty good. I don't know. I like I have no issues with Pepe. The fate of the Lilac system rests squarely on their shoulders. I think Fox is the one that is like he's just a little weird looking. The Rwing is a Anyway, interesting game. Damn, some of those visuals. Where's that montage in the end? June 25th, by the way. Yeah, this [ __ ] I'll target the lights on the left. You guys go right. God damn, dude. It's a trap. Take them down. Don't crawl back under your swarm of lowly flies. Everyone sounds like they're a teenager, though, except Pepe. You know, I'm kind of missing I'm really missing the the guttural cheese of the Star Fox 64. Everyone sounds like they are sort of like playing it straight. Address, I failed you like that [ __ ] I don't see any like extreme performances. Okay. All right. Falco is just Falco. Yeah. Yeah. What is a stranger than heaven showcase? Hold on a second. I don't want to see the showcase. I can't watch the full thing. One second. that uh welcome back to the stage of history. Um cast story and reveal trailer. Yeah, I don't want to watch the full presentation. I want to play some games tonight, dude. Hold on. Gameplay is only on stream. This is the one. Okay. Why does this dude look like Akira? for neither. is a minus one. That right there, that's the Japan you've been dreaming about. This is Japan. Stranger. It's got the sepia filter of like old films trying so hard to protect. What's your story? Is this Camaro? Just a pony for the Yakuza. Some things never change. Obsessing over one man's death. That's no way to live a life. I know. But I can't just live it alone. If I don't settle this, my life can't ever begin. Follow through the silence where the memories and hush in the air. The music is doing a lot. Music is doing a lot. You know, we could always just make our own for our own country. It's the only choice we have. Our only way forward is to make a place for ourselves. That settles it. Makoto, if this country won't accept us, we'll cut out our own right from underneath it. Interesting. All the multilingual stuff. All right. saturated stranger than heaven my way. You come here, come on, join the fun. It's our homecoming after all. America, this is my home and nothing's going to change that. That's a pretty good trailer. That's a really That's a really effective trailer. Is Xbox publishing this? What? That's coming out on everything, right? Uh, wait a minute. Is this only on Sega's publishing it? Okay, it's on Game Pass. Is it really on Game Pass? Damn. It's on everything. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Um, interesting. I feel like they're trying to they're they're doing the thing that is pretty obvious from such a longunning series been going for so long. Uh they're trying to find reset points, you know? They're trying to get you an opportunity to jump into this without having any pre-existing knowledge of previous stuff and to find an opportunity to enjoy like the Yakuza series um without it being canonically and deliberately tied to Yakuza. It looks pretty AAA for Sega in a while. Yeah, I've been hearing there's some weird things with like, you know, some of the ports of games that have been happening recently. This is directly tied to Yakuza. No, it is. But at the same point, it does not feature all the characters and the lore from the games that came before it. Where if you're jumping in in Yakuza 7, you do not know what happened six games in before that. This jumps back like 60 years, dude. So, I mean, it's it makes sense that it's literally about the the entire story is about the origin of how this stuff started or close to origin. It's going to um it's going to end with the birth of the dude from the Yakuza games. What the [ __ ] is his name? Not Majima. Kiru. Kiru is going to be born. And they're like sitting there together and they're like, "What should we name him?" Kiru, I found a place. The credits start rolling. That's it. That's how it ends. I'm calling it. John Yakuza. What if it ends that way, chat? What if it ends that way? What if that's how it ends? What if that's how it ends? Do you think that's how it ends? That'd be crazy, right? You go. Everyone owes me 100 gift subs each. If you're watching this, you Everyone owes me 100 gift subs. Um, yeah, it looks good. It looks good. Max spoiling the ending. Sorry. I'm just saying [ __ ] Things will be right every once in a while. one second. Plug in. Unplugging and or unplugging. What else happened? Huh? Oh, Jesus Christ, bro. I I We'll be back. I'll be I'll be acting like a stupid [ __ ] tomorrow because this was announced but is not announced Holy [ __ ] dude. Holy [ __ ] Holy [ __ ] Holy moly. Hell yes. Yes. Aliens Fire Team 2 finally announced after being rumored for a year. Four players, bro. Yes. Hell yes, dude. I'm so happy. I'm so These guys killed it, dude. Aliens Fire Team was, in my opinion, like one of the best Aliens games there is. Uh, it was way too good. Left 4 Dead with Alien. So, that exists. It was Aliens Fire Team one, right? Well, granted that it was only three players. Granted, it was three players, but still, I can't wait. The progression system, all of it, dude. It was It was amazing. It was so goddamn cool. So, is it all action? No horror. Um, let me show you. Hold on a second. Let me see if I can actually find out how I can look this Let me show Let me Is that what I sound like? Oh, no. Is that what I Is is Is that what I sound like? I sound like that? Oh [ __ ] I sound like that. That's That really sucks that I sound that way. I'd be really unfortunate if I sounded that way all the time. Stupid chat. Uh, hold on a sec. Hey, that's not Aliens Fire Team Elite. You That wasn't the name of it. We did the final part of this. Behind you, Max. I don't have a quick the green [ __ ] Oh my god. Man, this [ __ ] was just fun. This [ __ ] was just fun. And it started getting crazy stuff in the end. The giga queen. Get him, Flamy. Get him, Flamy. Oh [ __ ] it's coming for me. This [ __ ] was just fun. Look at this big [ __ ] thing. a great Kenny on flamethrower lighting everybody on fire constantly. Look at Simmons running on fire. I'm on [ __ ] fire. He He would just be torching us all day long and blinding me. Yeah, you could actually turn the damage numbers off in this from what I remember. What are the chances we get a yacht class? Well, I mean, it's called Aliens Fire Team. I I lost it. [ __ ] It's called Aliens Fire Team Elite 2, right? I don't think that's happening. Maybe DLC. Who knows? Take care of the fodder. Yeah, I was the smart gun guy. It was too much fun, dude. This game was actually a blast. I loved it. Flamy, let's go. [ __ ] I'm about to die. About to die. Oh, [ __ ] This game's really fun with people. Yeah, it is honestly one of my most uh enjoyable co-op experiences we've had with Yo Video Games. It was just a really good time. I wonder if the sequel is going to be crossplay. The sequel is four players. That's what's happening. That That's the announcement. That was actually uh the announcement. Aliens. I have to look up their Twitter. Hold on. Yeah. Aliens Fire Team Elite. Uh 2023. Yep. Don't know anything else, but it's going to be four players. There's four characters on the screen, dude. Hell yeah. Were there classes in the game? Yes. Um, there was like you picked a main weapon and a and a subw weapon and then there was people that also had tech that could heal and do things like that. Yeah, there was a turret guy, you know. Yeah. Did it say crossplay was they didn't announce a date that they know. It's just that tomorrow it's it's premiering like early in the morning. So, I'll probably be watching this trailer with you guys tomorrow night. Dude, if it is crossplay, that's godlike. That's godlike, man. I can't wait. If you look, they have the OG pulse rifle design. Um, they had that in the game. Yeah. Yeah, they had that in the first game. There's pulse rifles all over the place and [ __ ] It was very much aliens coded. It wasn't like a mixture of like alien and all that kind of stuff. It had all these things were sort of like present in uh the previous game. The revolver rifle I think is a shotgun maybe. I don't know. I don't know. I'm just wondering. They spent time on this dude. Like Aliens Fire Team came out what back in 2021 or something like that. Did you play Hell Divers? We tried it. It was okay. It was okay dude. We played Hell Divers and we sort of like all of us came to the same conclusion. We just missed Aliens Fire Team. It was weird. We liked it. But was there a character creator? Yeah, there was a character creator. I mean, I'm assuming yes, because there was a character creator in the first game, right? This fire team co-op only. Not only no, you can still play it with single people. Um, oh Chad, this is in 2023. Fully crossplay. So they eventually made Aliens Fire Team crossplay enabled. That eventually happened. Cool. Yeah, I'm hella interested, dude. This game was fun. Was really fun. Would I give Hell Divers 2 another chance? Hell no. This exists. What? You're asking me to play Hell Divers when this exists? Holy [ __ ] Bro, no. Hell no. I want to play this. Diverse was cool, but aliens like way greater sign starship troopers, man. Like, come on. I like Starship Troopers is neat. Is that a Predator in the right hand corner? Shut the hell up. No, this is a xenomorph. It's called literally Aliens Fire Team Elite 2. My 8:30 a.m. Farfignan. I'm not staying up that late, dude. I'm not I'm not staying up that late. I ain't doing it. 10 hour Trying to fix my sleep schedule. I'm trying to fix my sleep schedule here. Okay. Oh, Divers is better, bro. I'm sure it is. I don't want to play it. Uh, just stream it earlier earlier at night tomorrow. No. No. yeah, plenty of coffee and no, dude. Come on. Come on. Go to bed early. We should just end the stream now. Yeah, let's just let's just kill the stream now. Anyway, anything else? I think that's it. I think we're caught up on all the crazy [ __ ] Damn, I'm wearing an alien shirt today. I didn't even [ __ ] realize. I didn't even I didn't even [ __ ] realize I was wearing an alien shirt. Um, Angrid battle pass trailer dropped. Is that not old? Is that not old? F7 stuff. There's There's a lot of FF7 stuff, but nothing mega crazy. Nothing mega crazy. They're just talking about like more things. I don't think there's more FF7 news. Everything I Everything I've seen is like, okay, we're not actually like dropping new information. It is like it is more embellishing on all of this stuff, you know, video game Christmas. Yeah, the invincible skins price dropped. That is cool. I think that is actually mad cool that they are reimbursing and dropped the price of the skins because they got some flak on that. Yeah, that is very cool. They've also been very receptive to feedback. This [ __ ] looks like Rango. I just realized what it looks like, dude. It looks like Rango. You guys remember Rango? Yeah. Amazing movie, right? But it it literally has the visual design of Rango. Rango characters. Yeah, it reminds me a lot of the way Rango's characters look. The way they render their characters and [ __ ] Yeah, it's very similar. Granted, that movie is old as dirt now. Amazing [ __ ] movie. Really good movie with less charm. Well, I mean, Rango is charming because they they really got the performances in insanely accurate in Rango, which makes it very charming. 2011, not that long ago. Just 15 years. I don't have any personal affiliation with any of these characters. What is uh are people pissed off about this? Do people really like the uh the monkey dude? Is Starwolf not doing it for you? Leon looks horrible. Is this the great Leon? Is that Is that him? I can't even remember what the hell Leon who's who Leon's supposed to be. Is Leon the lizard? I am the great Leon chameleon. Whatever. This a lizard. This a dog. Come on. Are you Japanese? I literally am. I'm waiting on you guys to catch up. Leonades. Sure. And then a pig. And then there's a pig. I'm going to try to play Dead as Disco um without the streamer mode. I'm going to try a little bit, dude, to see if we can just so we can have the game be represented in the way that it's like meant to be. Good luck, Brave Man. I mean, it might just get nuked. It could just get nuked, but let me see. And then we got to play Sorrowos. I got to just jump in some Soros. Worth it. Trust me. I kind of want that experience, you know. Straight to jail. No trial. Just get in prison. Let me get this. Um, I downloaded the mixtape. Yeah, the uh Oh, I'm sorry. I downloaded the the streamer mixtape is what it's called. It's like an extra DLC that has all these extra streamer mode songs. Doctor, turn up my copyright inhibitors. Buddy Life, thank you. Tdub, Scuba, Dogfart, Curse Mark, appreciate it, guys. Omega, Fatalis, Walks, Platformer, Reed, Wade, the Spade, KY. Thanks everybody. And we thinking this game might be practice project for monolith to make a nextgen game on switch 2. They did the same thing as xenov definitive on switch one. Remake games is technical practice. I want all the music. I don't know what songs are in here. I think this the music choices are a um complete surprise to me. They're a complete surprise to me. So I think being being shocked by what song is being added or used is part of the charm of it. Let's just try it. Not everyone can sell their soul. First you got to have something the devil wants. Damn presentation of this [ __ ] Get up. Get down. Legend is back. Oh, must have been a hell of a gig cuz I don't remember a thing. Well, let's hope you still have some muscle memory. Wait, what? Yeah, I got to figure out VSYNC. Hold on a second. Uh, let's do it. Windows full screen Vsync. Ah, let me have it. Let's do it. Death has not done those reflexes. I'm sorry. Why else would you be talking to Scotland? I've been to some wild parties, man. running your boys. We got big toys for the big boys and they come with no step again Oh no. The after party. They were my friends. Oh yeah. And now they say your songwrit Why are they talking? They would never do that. We outside the top of the game. What you going to do like ain't no dance like a six. You know what it is. picked up the pen and I picked up the master. You got to pay attention. Oh my god. So, dead, alone, and broke. Yeah, I actually hope they don't talk midfight very much. Am I missing anything? Oh, yeah. Just a proper introduction. I am Vice here to make sure the contract is upheld to the letter. Vansel for fun night. No refunds. They always want free funds. I guess every comeback does need a manager. But tonight you can take back what's yours. Your songs, your fans, your power. Sen, who will it be first? A skill trees. Whoa. Whoa. gain sprint. Hold dodge to increase movement. Okay, I already have that. Reduces fever drain rate while holding fever rush. Oh, that's two grand. Okay. Charge up a devastating kick knockback. Okay, why not? And I'm not going to have anything for this. Okay. Unlock batarangs. Hey, battle what? Battle what? Huh? What's happening? Want to go back to the main menu. Cool. Holy [ __ ] Visuals. Oh, this is like your hub. Leroy. Ah, okay. So, customizable hub. I want to play back to title. I guess I have to find out where to go in here. Took myself to the bar and now I'm like where? There's an exit door somewhere. Exit door at the back. The back. Got it. Got it. The back. Not that back. Not that back. Opposite back. Got it. The other back. Hey. So, this is an interesting menu because I have no idea what it means. I'm guessing this is the names. The encore is the name of the bar. Hemlock profit decks are the names of the bosses. All right. And these ones are just locked out for the sake of being locked out. Okay. Um I wonder what the first one is or if it doesn't matter. It's literally like Mega Man boss style. Yeah, it's like Mega Man style. Music went away. Also, the music went away. Let's try this one. I can't the machine Voltater maybe took his stage name a little too. When I knew him, he swore he'd never touch body mods. Oh, the mods. Zed the juice. The whole kitten kaboodleoodle. He never was the type to settle for second best. Yeah, his perfectionism definitely got out of control. And not in a yay party kind of way. What did it cost him? In exchange for Zard's harmony makes him play endlessly. hooked up to the city's reactor. Maybe I can convince him to unplug. Oh, had to unlock hard. Okay, Charlie. Nice to see you're on time for once. Oh, so there's not like levels. Interesting, huh? There's not like a progression. Maybe there is. D, nice of you to pencil me in. You think you can challenge me? What's left of you anyway? Enough. I am 10 times the musician you ever were. You still don't get it. It was never about being the best. No, you don't get it. Yeah, I guess it's an early access thing. Don't you see? Perfection is pain. Here, let me show you. Bring it on, disco. fire. Oh boy. Oh, dodge. Oh, that's a Okay. My bad. My bad. Dead already. Okay. Okay. Uh I wonder if this is the first stage or not. I wonder. Restart bar. Restart level. Uh music is weirdly low. Yeah, I could barely hear the music. Um, hold on a second. Let's go back and see if I can change that. Music is super low. Uh, okay. Yeah, I couldn't even hear the beat of the song very well. Hemlock is first. Okay. Yeah. And do we not have the thing that is like you can zoom in on people quicker so you can like get up their grill faster? I'm I'm assuming that's an unlock of some kind. It's a later unlock. Okay. Okay. Here we go. Oh, this ought to be good. Charlie the rebel without a cause. A little on the nose for a punk rocker, if you ask I still can't believe he sold out. Oh, yeah. To harmony, no less. The very machine he used to rage against. Said he wanted to change the world. Nothing but a hypocrite and a thief. After you died, he sold care for hate. Traded your master record for the power to change things by any means necessary. Now the only change he makes goes to Harmony's wallet. Well, at least the concert venue is All aboard the patron. Is that old Charlie disco? Little late to the party, aren't you, mate? Always thought you'd die before selling Buy what you want. The song choice is so important. A song for real power. Harmony fuels this train now. Does so much. Anything that gets in the way. All that power. Bet you still can't write a song to save your life. This gives grown some balls, eh? Better hope they don't weigh you down on these tracks, mate. Or you'll wish to stay dead. How many stars go? Think I missed. Oh god. say she's crazy looking to the heart when the becomes a dance. It can be. Damn it. Look at the chat for a second. Damn. Join me on this track. You work all your life for that moment in time. It can come to That person's dead. almost died. All Oh, wrong button. Crap. [ __ ] All right. Uh oh. You got to restart the whole level. The whole the whole thing. Okay. Just a steel town girl on a Saturday night looking for the fight of life. In the real world, no one sees her at all. They all say she's crazy. Locking to the human heart. I'm dancing here. Join me on this track, will you? I'm locked in. I can't help it, dude. Oh my god, that happened so fast. piece of mystery. You work all your life, but there's always a chance. Oh, wow. I should know. She's never a damn Watch the god damn it. Son of a [ __ ] Oh god, I'm so bad at reading these angles. Oh my god. Came in here. These guys just whooped my ass and I got to go through the whole level again. Oh no. The exact same spot. Restart. Restart. Right next to the checkpoint. I mean, for some reason, it was much harder to read the prompts in that in that angle. She's a steel town looking for the real time world. at all. My bad. Oh, all right. All right. You know what's getting me, dude? The the countdown thing is like going slow and then it gets to the end and it goes fast. So, like it it's building up and I'm like, "Oh, okay." So, there's the timing. And then at the end when they're about to kick you, it goes zink. And it zooms in really quick. And I'm like, "Huh?" So I have to go to the beats instead of the visual indicator. Um, the closer he is to you, the faster it goes. All right. So that messes that definitely is like [ __ ] with me in the side sections. I'm like, I feel like I'm doing it at the time that they're asking me to do it, and then all of a sudden it's just bam, you get your ass kicked. It's a crash girl on a Saturday night in the real time world. sees her at all. They will say she's crazy to the funeral zone. When the dancing like she's never on the And she's dancing before. Okay. Got the timing on that. It's a place. It's a one place of mystery. You work all your life for a moment in time. It can come on pass by. Bush world there's always a chance if the hunger stays the night. There's a cold stretching. Oh god, that was fast. My god, that was fast, too. Son of a [ __ ] Too locked in. Okay, now we're going to get our ass kicked again. What the hell? A button. No pressy. God damn it. God damn it. See a different level. Same place again. Yeah, same exact place again. Uh, go to here. Weird that there's no music on this menu. Just early access stuff, I guess. I'm debating like I I think it's really cool, but it feels like if they're just dropping us into boss fights and stuff like that, it's like I wonder if this is going to be the same way throughout the other levels. You know there is what you need music in the juke box. Okay. Uh something else. Well, this one has a big old cut scene. Charlie, what a great surprise entrance. Rory, I know you saw me coming. Ah, my nickname. An attempt to recall fond memories. I know why you're here, Charlie. Do you think you can charm a god? A god? Rory, you're a musician. Look around. A billion souls dance for me. Welcome to my glimpse of my intergalactic power. Why don't you dance with me? Dancy party. Where's the beat? If only I could make your world as perfect as my paradigm. I'm so morality. Why don't you dance with me? song on this one it's okay. Song on this one's okay. The uh the the Maniac 80s song is really good. It's very powerful. That one I was having a tough time finding the rhythm. let me hear the song choices over here. Charlie, nice of you. Where you guys at? I am the darkness over the mountain. I got the higher ground. I not all the pressure on my face. I will break my body to protect my right. I am your wife. I'm your only eyes. It's time you met the reality. You were bringing me home. Cool visuals. My only path to escape. Conquer the higher ground. And now I walk on water up your bra. What fighting the life. He says into my obsession. Oh boy. Echo in my mind. Tell me where to strive on my soul. Trying out the fail. I ain't I can fail. I'm searching all my friends. They're my only. Oh well. Get a little weird. anime target or be I'm like healthy. Make this cons. I can't miss this. Bam. He doesn't get hit by that destruction. I have what it takes. Oo, that timing is weird. Okay. Okay. I never miss. W cons. This is personal down. You only have to hit him so much. How dare you? Okay. Feels like I can only fight him at so many points. Boss fights are a little bit more like scripted. broken I just make it enough. perfect day. He knocked his own dude. This is a big fight. I got hit. Oh my god. Wow. What? Oh, damn. Oh, damn. Jeez. It's tough. It's tough. Some of that stuff that starts popping up in the end, man. It's tough. Uh I'm assuming the checkpoint is beginning of the fight. I can't miss. This part this fight takes a long time. My hips are heavy. I need to tune up after that. Oh, rip. This can't be So many broken king. God damn it. I got bounced around weird there, dude. This way. it's a stagger bar. No. It's going places Carter destruction. [ __ ] No. Big [ __ ] Big [ __ ] Oh no. I'm trying. Ah, yeah. I know. It's still in early access, so not all things are are finished yet. Um, but god damn it. What's the R2 plus square? It's a uh it's a super, but it takes like a big animation. Um, all right. Can't see my health. All right. Hold on a second. I think I got I think I got this. Hold on a second. It's a big fight. It's a very big fight, bro. Perfect day is to make me a play. Stitch would be disappointed. Come on. You almost disconnected me. That was weird. already really works on boss. I've been doing it. Are you guys not watching? Sorry. Dead. Oh my god. I don't want to dash into that. Oh no, that was a bad round. That was a bad round. You are You have to get locked into these, man. You really do. You have to be locked into it. Had enough. I'll put you out of your misery. pain is You make me lost in this Our lives are heavy. Come here. you. Okay, no life lost. That's good. forever. Can't be faith is cons. Oh my god. Stop attacking over there. Dude, I couldn't hit him. Would be disappointed. Okay, here we go. That's enough. You're coming with me. Last phase maybe. Make it again. Perfect game. Heat. Heat. Heat. Taste like What is this? It was fun. It was fun figuring it out, you know. Figuring it Neat. I feel like the same thing when it comes to some of these games. It's got such a cool concept and it's it's the especially when you're like in there and you're doing stuff with like characters and enemies and stuff and vibing out with the music. Um, but it feels unfinished. It just does. It does not feel like it's a full game yet. And usually in these situations, I like to give the devs the benefit of the doubt where it's like, okay, well, I'd prefer to play the game the way it is in in an eventual 1.0. You know, it is still indeed early access. I'm glad I already gave them my money uh to support this because it's incredibly cool, but there's just like, oh, he shows up here. Um, but it's clear that like progression and certain things like that are just a little a little weird. like in terms of progressing and going from one area to the next and all that kind of stuff. Get high five rush vibes from it, of course. Um, got to buy that that knife throw. That thing was really good cuz it kept you kept you in the action constantly. Um, the ranged attack. Yeah, way better. Perfect. The escalating attack increases the additional damage of fever generation. That sounds great. Was I getting enough? Was I getting plenty of perfects in there? Um, what I do like is that some of the counters, if you hit the counters perfectly, it gets you like a special counter. It was pretty neat. What is this stuff? Need hemlock to unlock. Oh, cool. Uh, press to lightning strike an enemy and shock up to three targets. RT and A. Wow. Stops health regen. Weird. Attack to dash towards an enemy. Hit by a drumstick toss. Cool. Like that's the one that ties in with the other one, right? increase max health. Boring. Boring. what was profit like? Aurora was okay. Hemlock is really cool. Skipping all story stuff because we want to I want to see what the song is like for now. You remember this place or is your brain wormhold? I'm starting to fill in the holes. A lot of destinies foretold on this street. If you wanted to stand out, you had to battle before the prophet. Now you're just another one of Harmony's gatekeepers. When did you sell out? You lost faith long before me. Top me? I was dead. You think you can lie to me? From outcast to top in the charts in a month. You sold your soul. Bet you didn't check the price. That's not how I remember it. Maybe you've forgotten how we were better together. We've been in the dark 10 long years, child. I'll show you the light. Let's start this mission.
