Welcome agents to strain 98-JBP.
I can't speak tonight of the zero point report the number one broadcast all about the news surrounding the secret world IP Today is Thursday, December 19th 2024 and with me tonight.
We have two ton waffle Where Down there where if it's Jimmy the rabbit checked out
Hey-o!
Hey Jimmy, how are you?
Ugh, you know, apparently I'm the sleepy dwarf.
He's so epee.
sorry, that was a reference to me falling asleep on stream last weekend.
You know, I've been there for hours.
Hours?
OK, no, I haven't been there.
that's OK.
A lot of people think there was a couple hours of me just doing this.
then and then there was just a chair.
Listen, couple hours.
Listen, if you streamed enough, you've fallen asleep on stream.
You have.
I hadn't, and I've done marathons.
But in my defense, I had no sleep pretty much all week.
I also somehow have like no caffeine for a good like eight hours prior.
That's weird of you.
I'm like a two mountain dew every four hours kind of person.
like for me to have no caffeine is really odd for my body.
Like and then I drank on top of it.
So no sleep, no caffeine and booze.
And I just fucking straight up.
My body was like, nah, we're done.
I remember when I started streaming, I started streaming in 2017.
And when I started streaming, it was when basically my son was first born and my wife and I took shifts, essentially.
So she could get some sleep.
And then I basically stayed with him until like a little after midnight.
And then
Then I woke her up and then she...
Or no, then he slept and then she woke up early.
That's what it was.
But either way.
So I took that time and I was like, well, what do I, you know, I can just play games, I can do whatever.
So was like, I'm to take up streaming.
I'm just going to stream.
And but also, yeah, it's tiring.
So I know at least once, at least once I fell asleep.
You know what mean?
Mm
Like, someone raided me while I was sleeping.
Didn't you raid me twice, but I was ending?
I'm fucking have like an achievement for that shit.
I did that twice this week already.
I rated people and like I rated into them like ending or being offline.
But when I go to look, the thumbnail is still them being live.
So it's like the Twitch thing.
it's basically Twitch not being.
Yeah.
Being good.
So that's not my fault.
Being good, exactly.
Well, welcome, agents.
We're here to, of course, talk to you all about the news.
Thank you for joining us.
you're doing so, Vomr, how are you doing?
See you in our chat.
Hope you're doing well.
But of course it is now Krampus knocked here in Secret World.
Thank you, Jimmy.
Got to thank, as we saying, you got to thank Jimmy for for all of our events.
no, not all of them, just some of them.
Some of them.
He's the one that pulls the handle of starting these events.
So do you want explain how you helped start this one as you were telling us before?
Just poking people.
That's not very nice.
Yeah.
Do you they appreciate it?
you think they're like, yes?
do you think they're like, gosh?
Yeah, since Vomber and I have communicated so that we don't like over...
It's sort of like a, do you want to tell them or should I?
Yeah, yeah, because we don't, we both don't, we don't want to like impose, you know, and we also don't want to like, you know, flood people unnecessarily or make it so like they
stop paying attention.
You don't want to be the boy who cried wolf.
Essentially, No one no one wants that
but yeah, yeah, there was, there was definitely some manual intervention required to get this shit, to get this thing on, on track.
I would say usually I haven't noticed that the Christmas event starts at a weird time or at least because I have been keeping track of when events have started compared to
previous years and then also when they are off by a couple days in comparison like if one has a login and when that starts as opposed to when other things start.
And this is at least the first one that I have noted for winter.
I'm pretty sure like all of them recently have required like some manual po- Now it's also possible that like the Christmas one being Christmas, you know...
Someone may have on their own been paying more attention or something.
Maybe.
Yeah, I, this is what I was talking about like, like prior to the stream bombers, like I'm pretty sure that the events are supposed to auto start and they just don't.
Like something is broken.
I think once we theorize that it had to do with like, not time changes, but like, if we have a year that has a...
that has like a leap year or something that stuff gets off.
They basically have confirmed that like leap year will mess with things, but it should only be off by a day.
It shouldn't cause it not to start.
You know?
True.
So yeah, there's obviously something's not working correctly.
But also I'm pretty sure it's been like that.
Because I feel like I...
So here's the thing, I wasn't planning on talking about this.
That's why I was talking about it before the stream.
Well, yeah.
I don't want to call attention to things like that too much usually.
since we're talking about it, will say like...
I can't think of one that started like on its own for at least a year or two.
I mean, that's sort of like why it's sort of like, you know, I think it's OK to talk about that is because it is a thing that is just perpetual.
is a thing that is.
I also think it's not supposed to be like, yeah, again, like the daily locker rewards actually click off automatically.
There was an issue with those.
think I want to say the first year I remember some conversation where like they actually didn't go off when they were supposed to.
Like there was an issue with the script and then they did fix it.
And so now logger awards are actually pretty consistently come on like when they're supposed to.
But it's the events actually starting themselves.
It's only recently that Vomr and I started coordinating and I let Vomr know, like, hey, those events that were always two days off, that's just because I was waiting to see if
they would start before I poke somebody.
It's been like this for a while.
know what I mean?
We just haven't been talking about it.
I've been seeing it since I've been keeping track of that, since 2021.
is the first time that I noticed that it was like, this isn't off.
This is not when it was, you know, and it was, it was an envoys event.
It was the, login for the envoy starting, but the envoys didn't show up until the next day.
No, mean, yes, we've done that.
But I think if I recall when we talked prior, there was also ones where.
At from our, I remember from our conversation, there was at least a couple of times where you just thought they were like a day off sync or something and they weren't.
That was them getting poked.
My point is it's been going on for a long time.
So I don't think it, I guess what I'm saying is I don't think it ever has worked.
think the logger.
Whatever the auto start thing is.
The auto, the logger award script was broken like the first year they tried to put that in place and then they fixed it.
And I think they thought they fixed the event one.
So it's supposed to auto work and it just never has.
Also, it's even possible, depending on different situations, who's looking at what, it's also entirely possible that even if it didn't work, someone was paying more attention in
previous years.
You understand?
Whereas like now they have so much other stuff going on.
I don't think- Awakening, Coden Exiles, yeah everything is still- you got, Metal Hellsinger needs- Metal Hellsinger- People looking at it, right?
Like, like they've got a lot going on, so I don't think there's maybe like as close of a tension.
I'm just saying like in the past I think it was more possible that like, that it doesn't trigger and within like an hour like someone catches it or some shit, you know what mean?
As opposed to like just no one's paying attention for days.
Unless you send up a flare.
But we know, we know also that they, that yeah, it's not, and it's not just like, their, their mind is on other games.
It's more like they're really working hard on those other games.
Like, their eight hours are full, you know.
Hopefully it's eight hours.
That's probably not accurate, actually.
No, probably not.
They're like, you mean my 15?
My 15 albums are full.
It's not.
Let's be fair.
that yeah the people are like hey but secret world and they're like right right right yes yes secret world it's a it's a thing
See what I get.
Did I get anything good?
I didn't get anything because I had too many mission reports.
I didn't realize it when I entered.
Whoopsie doodle.
As they say, I don't know who they are that says that other than me, but you know, there you have it.
Whoopsie doodle.
That's a good one.
Curl toe slippers red.
Nice.
who doesn't like a good curl toe slipper?
should be on everybody's Christmas list.
I already have it, of course.
Made by a couple of weeks.
You, person standing next to me.
Do you want some curl toe slippers, my dude?
that sounds vaguely like offensive or something.
It's definitely sketchy.
It doesn't sound like a person in a dark alley.
The trench coat's like, hey, you want some curl toed slippers?
Yeah, it doesn't sound appropriate.
Don't worry, they didn't fall off the back of a truck.
Do you want some curl toe?
You're like, ooh, slippers.
Wait, what?
You gonna curl my toe?
slip.
You're much a I'm in.
Like a girl.
That's a good one.
Dude, that- had- I love that Rick and Morty episode.
does that.
Son of a bitch, I'm in.
I'm in.
As someone that has seen, like, all the goddamn, you know, like, oceans and then a number movies, you know what I mean?
Like, it's pretty funny.
like wait all my passive all my passive points it was like up you're at you're at cap for passive and I'm like wait a minute I maxed that out already I don't have anything to put
it into that's right took me long enough
Yeah, I'm in like the, I don't know, like 600 plus SPAP, I think on Jimmy.
Yeah.
And yet I still have like 680 AP to go.
Yes, darkening out and not and not spending it
Most of time, eat up your AP and your SP.
But yeah, you you cap out on SP like way before the AP.
Like way before, way before, yeah, that's what I'm saying.
OK, I haven't haven't marked pretty pretty hard and.
It's.
Yeah, the AP is.
But my SP is at zero and I've got 78 points.
stacked up and my AP is I still need it.
Six hundred and forty points in order to complete.
Everything.
Yeah.
So I on ephemeral, I've I completed the all the passives and I my SP is clocked up to one hundred and sixty two SP.
But I still need like.
I don't know.
Eight more capstones or something.
OK, yeah.
Like eight times four.
Like 320p more or something, anything like that?
Yeah, like it's not exactly balanced as far as like when you hit the top of SP, you'll hit the top of AP too.
no, not remotely.
Yeah.
One person really loves snowballing waffle.
That also sounds inappropriate.
Bummer.
I'll allow it.
Filthy, Vomr.
Filthy.
Again, snowballed.
But yes, Krampus Noct has returned.
It's eighth year here in Secret World Legends from December 15th.
At least the logins.
It's December 15th to January 4th, I believe.
That's how the math works out for that.
with, hourly bosses probably going from the 15th to whenever they turn it off.
Unless that's automatic, in which case it's probably the sixth.
Who knows?
But of course, the Winter Holidays brings a whole bunch of fun from the hourly bosses to the bounties.
Yeah, flag and mirrors.
Right, to the investigation.
Nippleheim!
Icy claws.
All the all the fun that we're generally used to here in the holiday season here in secret world.
going around hunting the Krampus.
If it's a 21 days, it's expected to be ending January 7th, 2025 at 9 a.m.
Eastern, roughly.
I never, whenever an event is like, we end on whatever time at like, yeah, nine o'clock in the morning.
I'm like, I don't count that day.
I only generally count nights.
So was like, how many nights is the, is it taking place on?
I'm not getting up at 9am.
Well, no, but you could, you know, be up all night until 9am.
That's true.
You could just not go to sleep.
Yeah.
No sleep till Krampus.
or something like that.
Like, I'm gonna be awake until they turn it off.
See, then they just won't turn it off.
I had yeah, I had I had to make up for the stream where I fell asleep So like the next the next night I did like a fucking nine-hour stream or something It was all Killing udas by
the way It was it was an entire stream of just just doing money Dude and I got fucking four bunny heads out of goddamn like nine hours and like
20 SD cards.
Fucking annoying shit.
And by the way, that was with running two clients and playing two copies of the fight at the same time.
So I was on both characters.
Yeah.
So I was on two characters, all tabbing between them farming for that for for that long and still only got fucking four bunny heads.
tell you man, drop rates.
Drop rates, it's a thing.
Now, did we learn it?
It's not a thing.
Yeah.
It's not a good thing.
You know where you really learn about DropReach 2 is like,
You know how you have to the Krampus, right?
the the summoning pieces or whatever.
Shadowy Forest one is way lower drop rate because.
The item it drops turns into five.
It like you drop the hand and you write fingernails.
Yeah, so it's drop rate is adjusted for that.
So you can fucking run around Shattered Forest for like hours trying to fucking kill Krampus to get a goddamn hand shot.
Let's see, I have Kingsmith, Savage Ghost, Blue Mountain.
What am I missing?
I've got a lot, but I always forget which one is which.
Bomber loves farming, shadowy forest Krampus, in a non-sarcastic fashion.
You start worrying when you say, I'm gonna be up till they turn it on, right?
I'm gonna start the event as soon as it starts.
Like, no.
yeah, right.
Because then you'd be up for a week waiting for the event.
I get you.
Taking up what you're putting out.
Like if you're like, I'm going to be up until this event starts.
They might be like, you know, part of their social part of their, you know, checks might be like, who's streaming our games right now?
Let's go check out their streams, see what they're doing, you know.
They're sleeping.
They're sleeping on stream right now.
Sleeping right now.
How dare they?
game is boring as shit.
I fell asleep.
I will say this, I don't think I would have fallen asleep playing like a different game.
The problem is I can play this game in my sleep.
Yeah, you can.
I have.
I've like micro slept during like dungeon fights before.
I my brain is too used to this game.
So like it's too comfortable if I was playing something else like I it would require more brain power.
I get that.
You're just on autopilot.
Yeah, I'm on autopilot and autopilot is bad if you're, you know, tired.
You
You fall asleep every single-
Dog regional I thought you were saying game like yeah, everyone sleeps every day
The plate plays on instinct.
absolutely.
I imagine Jimmy does.
You know, I because OK, because every year I do the extra life marathon.
I multiple multiple times I straight up have.
I remember being like in an on Dungeon tanking it and like doing like this number and just like.
You know, nodding off in between cooldowns, basically.
It just gave me a really weird thought for a run.
that you could do.
Sleeping run?
No, but it's like, as you say, you have the game basically on autopilot, Mm hmm.
Have you done one where the game randomized your own keybinds?
Key Binds?
mean, even though it's randomizing the directions, it's more or less similar.
It's similar, yeah.
I already did the randomizer one though, where it scrambles the abilities, which is pretty close to what you're talking about.
Right?
Because the buttons are.
That's a lot the the things the buttons do are.
So.
And I'm thinking the buttons themselves.
It's sort of like it would it would majorly mess you mean like, so like
now it's like comma to do something or I to do something like you just sort of use a you use a game pad.
You use a controller.
So it'd be like that.
I would do it on keyboard because otherwise randomizing the controller is like not a that'd be way harder to do.
But and and be like it wouldn't be as interesting.
I don't I just I just imagine that it just it would just seriously mess with muscle memory.
Like all the muscle memory that you've acquired, all of a sudden it's like, my, what is, and it would just, definitely not maybe give you a new appreciation for the game,
obviously.
I mean, I could see like, like randomized keyboard.
I have, I could look into that.
I've done the, you remember the run I did where it was like, auto sprint was on the whole time.
It was like the speed, the flash.
Like there was a mod so our one was always on.
I was just always running forwards the whole time.
But something like that would just yeah, it would just screw with with muscle memory, which for most games, that's, know.
Muscle memory is basically how we roll with the majority of the games that we play.
Once we get it in our head, we just give it Yeah, already fucks with that pretty hard.
Yeah.
Right.
Because the directionals randomly fucking around is...
But I mean, yeah, not just directionals, but sort of like, you know, what what button would do the abilities?
No, I know.
I'm saying it's similar.
It's similar, though, in the sense that like of that.
But yeah, I don't know.
I don't know.
I'm curious.
I don't know, just a thought.
bet you could do that with AutoHotKey maybe?
Maybe?
Like AutoHotkey, can say, like, I press this key and it does this instead, right?
So like...
I don't know.
gravel controls with souls likes.
like you can't really do it.
So it's like, it changes every like, I don't know, minute or something like that, because just hunting for which key it actually is would take you, you know.
OK, so I would think ideally you would have something that shows you what it's been mapped to.
So it shouldn't it shouldn't be like trying to hunt is dumb no matter what.
Like, right.
Even even if it was like, you know, otherwise, basically then you're just playing by like
wiping your hand across the keyboard repeatedly.
Like that's not that's not good.
I mean, that's why I kind of suggested using the controller, because at least the controller like you got a lot less to choose from than if you use the entire alphabet.
Yeah, but it would be cool to just have like the the visual on screen, you know, like you can get the display thing to display your input.
No, yes.
Yeah.
Right.
And then say and then it's like what highlight that the keys have now been rebounded.
this, this and this, you know what saying?
So then just go, okay.
let me claw my hand in a weird position.
You know, and then it does it again.
That would be kind of cool.
I'd be down for that.
Yeah.
I wonder exactly how much that would mess with your muscle memory.
God damn it, this guy's gonna die, isn't he?
Fuck me, dude.
Even Carpathian things I'm god too strong for.
I'm trying to get a portal and the the talisman spawns like a gatekeeper that like one shots the fucking.
The Krampus.
Like, you know, you have to get the Krampus to like half health and they go open a portal.
But like the hard to do when you just one shot.
It's cracking the talisman proc and then that guy auto hits them.
was like nothing I can do about it.
Say invite us invite us to group.
I will.
okay.
do I have?
I've got a whole bunch of...
my god, I was inviting a group and missed killing him fuck the portal went away son of a bitch Got him
I don't have a bunch of each, but I do have a good amount.
I have a set.
Vomr would also care to Niflheim.
Yeah.
Vomr would care.
look into a group window.
Yeah.
You could look at the game.
I could look at the frickin' screen for once.
God!
You're right.
could do that.
The only thing I like about about Niflheim is is that the the portal inside is like a is like a master portal, you know, like from here you can then portal to anywhere.
You just click the pictures?
Yeah.
You're like, where do I need- some big bitch!
And tiny.
I see you.
There you are.
I'm here.
Hiding behind bomber.
I so call you Big John and I so call you little Jane.
That works for me.
I'm cool with that.
Yay, one big one tiny.
That's what she said.
WHAAAT
I swear I'm gonna
Sorry, sorry, fixing my build, fixing my build.
Here I come.
why marie dying because you change your bill so the equal footing buff has to re-kick in
Yeah, lordy.
Where are you coming from?
Hey, what the fuck?
that was a render thing.
was like, I saw a little Krampus alive with the big one.
There come stand next to Krampus.
Waffle.
Almost.
Yeah, pretty decent.
Pretty decent.
Krampus looks scared.
is just Krampus, dude.
This is nothing.
That's why he looks scared, because he knows.
Bam.
Yeah, who's taller now?
All right, you guys want regular or nightmare mood we
You sound less than confident, sir.
Yeah, I am not confident.
That's why we could do it.
yeah, Tiny Ocho with a face of hell.
you're gonna...
this is gonna be fine.
This is gonna be fine.
Alright, we shall anger the spirits.
Yeah, we'll see if I can see it at all.
We'll see what happens.
you to aggravate the spirits of deathless cold?
I dare.
Alright, I think I have a full set of summoning stuff.
I'm gonna say it goes...
don't need a healer.
God damn it Vomit, you ruined my set.
or professionals, we don't need no healer.
I'm betting Waffles now first one to die.
He said it.
He said it's gonna happen.
Don't worry, I got you.
I carry all of you.
Literally.
Into the grave.
Everybody jump into my backpack.
ride your body like a toboggan into hell.
What's the drill quote?
I will face God and walk backwards into hell.
Bomber, did you want me to activate this one?
I think Bomber stopped after.
Well, they activated like three more.
I'm not sure what they're doing.
was that the wrong side?
Yes.
I said I felt bad and stopped because I felt bad ruining your perfect count.
Well yeah, but you already ruined it.
So like the damage is done now.
That's true.
Might as well keep going.
You don't undo it by like by stopping doesn't make any sense
You can't untoast the toast.
Have you tried?
Are we missing this?
Is that what happened?
you bring us...
I guess so.
Dude, that like health hit when EFB goes away hurts so bad.
I didn't put, It's like, yeah, for a second it's like, you're dying and it's like, am I?
I can't change my shortcut shit, really?
That's annoying as fuck.
Windy there.
we pushed into the next phase.
I got a light going pretty quick.
That's a little bit.
Holy shit
I wanna- wait she didn't even do a spin dude!
I wanna snowball her in the face.
Bomber you can't hit before the tank does.
That's gonna be bad.
I moved too slow.
You needed to stand closer.
Dude, my controls were flipped.
I had to auto run that shit.
Must've been the way-
Yeah, it must have been a bug.
Well, we managed to kill half the group.
Also, I wasn't right.
Vomr died first.
Waffle did die second time.
I'll have to take sauce on the fact that that waffle was the the first of the people on stream to to die.
shit.
no, I think I got it.
I got it right.
Actually in order to figure it out I need to look at you.
Ha!
That's funny.
Because the little icon above my head is too small.
They drew first blood.
This is gonna take a while.
Not that Jimmy can't do it.
What?
Is it nothing you can't do it you obviously can.
Do what?
Solo.
Nightmare Hell.
yeah, I already did.
Yeah.
You're making this go too quickly, like you've only gotten to throw like two snowballs.
Stop keeling her.
Do you have the snowball?
Well, you should have the emote.
I don't know if you have the item.
I've got the emote.
I know I have the item, but I absolutely probably forgot the item.
I have it.
just fucking didn't put it in my quick slot.
And apparently you can't switch your quick slots.
Stupid.
Nope.
yeah.
It's a good thing.
I was like, wait, is this no, I to be on the dark side.
Yeah, see I can't- No, because it's different for every person.
That's right.
You want me to wipe?
I can.
Up to you.
to ask the audience.
would say Waffle right now has a top down view of.
Get off you, killing hell.
You'll spin already, bitch.
Thank you.
She doesn't want to flinch today.
I'm like trying to find the emote on my...
They put it at the top, that's why I couldn't find it.
I just realized I keep pushing my push to talk even though don't need to.
Again, it brings up the whole idea of the muscle memory.
Yeah, it's foot memory though.
I think it's different.
some more news.
Star Anvil bundle for Savage Worlds stuff is all 50 % off on DriveThruRPG until December 24th.
Just a reminder that the 50 % off digital bundles end on December 24th.
In case anyone wanted to grab a set before the next book, North America...
...in Illuminati launches.
So pick that up.
If you have not picked up the secret any of secret world stuff on drive thru RPG now is a good time.
shit.
I apparently was in that and didn't realize it.
That was not good.
I'm just going to hide over here and heal for second.
If you buy the emote snowball item from Dr.
Caligari, after unlocking the emote, you can put it in your quick access bar for easier snowballing of foes.
Yeah, that's what I do.
But I forgot to, I have it in my inventory.
I forgot to put it in the the store.
I want to say I have it.
I have the item in my bank.
My controls flipped there as well, that was annoying.
Go, go, go, go, go, go.
So yeah, it's report.
I'm trying to get the icy claws.
So yeah, because it's holiday season, of course.
Did we lose Mikey?
Or did I drop?
No, he dropped a little bit.
He's back.
TomCast?
It's that, you know, resetting the BroadCam or bandwidth.
There's only so much that you can use per day.
And then they just get angry.
Get a refill the bucket.
What did it change to?
An hour, which means in a half hour of another 10 second drop.
I actually called him to complain about that today.
I was like, guys, it's been a little longer than normal.
Usually when you do this, it's only for like a week or so.
But what they do is they've set my IP address lease to once an hour or once every two hours.
And if it's once every hour, it's after 30 minutes, it'll just renew the lease again.
And if it's every two hours, then after an hour, or no.
She flinched.
Yeah.
After an hour, it'll renew the lease, which leads to a five to 10 second drop every like half hour to hour.
That is crazy.
And so I called them today.
I was like, can you stop?
Can you not do that?
Can you change that?
So.
And they were like, there is no way.
And they were like, well, if you want to renew your your IP lease, all you got to do is just hit, you know, go into command prompt and IP config slash release and IP config slash
renew.
And I'm like, that's not it.
Like, no.
I especially I don't want to do that.
I want you guys to leave my fucking IP alone.
And they're like, well, we can't change that.
I'm like, you can change that.
You are the ones that denote the least time.
You, you are the one.
You have the power.
But you could do that yourself.
I'm like, no, I can't.
Be like, sure, for my own equipment and stuff that's on my own.
That person doesn't know what they're talking about.
Yeah.
That person has a script.
They were hired to read the script.
They do not know.
Yeah.
So I was like, I will.
I'll have to have to try again.
Because, because yes, it is true.
You can.
Well, actually, no, even that I think is heavily wrong because that should just renew.
That would just renew your, your lease from like the router, not like the IP of the public IP.
You'd have to go into your router to do that.
Right.
Which is like technically possible, but I don't know how much their system even pays attention to that.
Right.
Like, I don't know if you can force it to give you a new public IP.
You can force your router to give you a new internal IP or something.
The stuff that I can do is mostly give me a new internal one, but I can, regardless, they control the lease timer.
Correct.
Yes.
On their end.
Be like, you control the lease timer for your own network.
But outside, way too short.
Yeah.
And I feel like they do this to like, if they're doing like work in the area.
or if they're doing something that it's a way they just kind of set everyone's lease to short time period.
that kind of makes sense.
So I think this is what they do is they're like, if we're doing work or if something is wrong or we expected to be doing work, we'll just set everyone's lease time to a smaller
thing.
Do the work.
Then after like an hour, everyone's lease will re up by itself.
They won't even notice except me.
know.
And they also leave it like this for like a week.
Two weeks.
Website DNS, right?
You set the time to live on the DNS really short.
You're going to be doing changes so that the things propagate faster.
And then ideally you set them back to longer time periods because you don't, A, because you generally pay for short leases more, because you get more queries and that's usually
cost more.
But when you're doing stuff, when you know you're going to be doing say like a
maintenance or something we're switch DNS things around like you'll you'll purposely like The week ahead of time fucking set the time to lives really short
so that when you make changes, they propagate out quickly.
And then when everything's good, usually set them, if you remember to, you set them back
But they do this periodically where they'll do it.
And I remember I called them one time about something and they were like, they're like, well, no one else is complaining about this.
And we're like, I don't care if no one else is complaining about it.
Can you fix it?
But that was about another issue that was affecting literally everyone in our area.
Like, well, no, yeah, no one else is complaining about it.
I don't care if anyone else is complaining about it.
I'm complaining about it.
Yeah, I feel like another one of those instances of like, sir, you're the only one complaining about it, so it must not be an issue.
I'm like, it's an issue to me.
It's one of those things where like you basically just roll the dice when you call that kind of shit.
Like sometimes you'll get lucky and you'll find someone answers that actually kind of knows what's going on.
And then for the most part, you just get someone reading a script that doesn't actually know what they're talking about.
Yeah, people are just reading scripts and.
Which is super frustrating for me because, you know, that's like I've been doing tech support for 26 years.
So I know what you're telling me is wrong.
I'm like, sir, let me support you support me.
Yeah.
I tell you that that is not the issue.
I have eliminated that as a possibility.
know that because it's my fucking job to know that.
But simultaneously, like, you know, they get people who are like, I already did that.
And it's something simple.
yeah.
Did you just try restarting your device?
Yeah.
And they're like, I already did that.
And then, know, they didn't.
They took off their monitor.
Yeah.
That's like that was like.
my God.
Jesus Christ, dude.
I almost made.
Yeah, that's that's pretty common like mm-hmm even today people say like I turned off my computer and they just mean they turn their screen off Yeah back on again Like that
doesn't fucking do anything Yeah, no, that's not what I meant
4 % left, by the way.
Good for everyone else.
No one else is noticing it.
Yeah, it was like a time when my upload was just absolutely hosed.
was an issue where I think almost like I was getting like a 5 % 10 % packet loss on everything.
so download barely worked.
Upload didn't work at all.
It was just...
They're like very basic things.
It worked on very basic stuff, it like it didn't work on like so streaming was just absolutely just could not do it.
And yeah, when I told them about it, they were like, well, no one else is complaining.
It's like, God.
I don't even think they probably notice, you know, if you're watching a streaming show, it's buffering and there you go.
Hey, all right, guys.
Good.
Yay, we were in the stands.
We were here.
I offered to wipe.
No, we don't.
Yeah, now again.
It would last longer.
Hey, I got an icy claws.
Well, yeah, everyone did.
yeah, that's true.
They did flinch.
I will donate I made her flinch.
So everyone gets one.
That's how that works.
I will donate it to your collection.
Thank you, sir.
Here you go.
trade too far away you're like
Busy.
Yeah, bomber bomber interacted first.
All right now.
Now I'm going.
where is this?
Icy Claws.
I got Krampus Rockets.
they still useful?
No, right?
fixed those.
are inventory.
They fixed the Krampus Rockets.
We gotta hand it to Jimmy.
Ching.
Waffle uses signet distillates.
Never.
What?
Never.
No.
And before Waffle says, what are signets?
Yeah, what are signets?
What is this that you speak of?
Distillate?
That can't be right.
That doesn't sound like a word.
Displate?
that's a news Talking about Displate.
There are secret roll posters now available on Displate.
Like that segue to a sponsor.
Well done.
There are now many different IP things available.
Funcom IPs, available on Displate, which is a website that might do more, but it's mostly posters.
So if you want a poster of like the login screen to Secret World or all of the main characters looking at you as you're on the ground.
I don't know that's what they're doing.
that that way.
They didn't sound like that at all.
You know what I'm talking about.
They're all looking like down.
So it's like you're looking at them from like a very low angle.
Right, Vomr found them before Funkam announced them.
Which probably prompted Funkam.
have Steak of World ones, they have The Park.
Yep.
They have a shit ton of Conan ones.
Yeah, there's, there's, there's a bunch of Conan displays.
Yeah.
I wish you, should put the link in here.
me bring it up.
I think I have, they say, Now, including Conan, the barbarian and fan favorites such as secret world, anarchy online and dream fall.
You can get yourself an anarchy online and metal hellsinger.
They've got the unknown up there.
Right, the park.
Do they have Moons of Madness?
Hide and Shriek they have one for hide and Shriek.
Yeah.
Journey I got the link in there.
There you go.
for anyone interested, display.com.
Yeah, there's Conan ones.
There's couple metal Hellsingers.
There's like at least five or six.
I'd say there's more Conan than anything, but I think there's also...
Am I crazy or is there like a Dune one as well?
Or is that...
No, it's Anarchy Online City, sorry.
It kind of looked doomed to me.
That one's Anarchy Online.
Yeah, I think it's Anarchy Online.
I'm not sure they have Dune.
But they're able to do Conan because, I mean, they own Conan.
Yeah, they have the Dreamfall stuff.
That was against me every time.
It's sort of like, they're not even like renting the IP from anybody.
They just own Conan outright.
I like the Chad one honestly.
I'm really baiting on getting the Chad display.
The squirrel from the park.
yeah.
And Secret World.
Technically he's mentioned in Secret World.
So he counts.
He counts for both.
So yeah, I don't know.
feel like I might need to get that one.
I would like some other Secret World ones to be perfectly honest.
not like the ones they have are decent, but I would like...
They're pretty generic.
They're like, yeah, it's like, okay, that's a cover art for whatever.
That's the login screen.
Sure.
And then...
Yeah.
And then the Secret World one is, know, like they're not bad.
I'm not saying they're bad, but I would like like a scene, you know what mean?
Like I would like a concept art pieces, right?
Yeah.
Or.
They've done like, they promo stuff, you know what I mean?
They've had like battle scenes, you know what I'm talking about?
Not just like posing, but like an actual...
Yeah, like the Lurker, you know, even just alert the the Lurker, in yeah, in in the in Manhattan fusion zone, like just that like that broken cityscape.
You know what mean?
I don't know.
just something yeah something with something with a little more than just a couple of it'll get they're not bad but
I got some screenshots that could work really well.
I'm just saying.
I know it is really cool that they even are doing this.
You know what mean?
But they're even there.
Yeah.
They're awesome.
Like all of them look good.
I'm sure any of them will look good on the wall.
But I legitimately, I may have to order myself.
Now here's the thing.
They're not just posters.
They're metal.
They're printed on metal.
You can get a custom display if you subscribe to their club.
Wait, hold on a second.
Any club that would have me as a member.
to make Jimmy one.
If I can make one?
If I can make it...
If I can make one, maybe...
Maybe, You have to crop my screenshots to weird as heck resolutions, but I could theoretically have a screenshot printed.
I mean, you can make it happen.
2900 by 4059.
Yeah.
I'm not sure how that would translate, but yeah, it could make it happen.
You know the one I made a shirt of?
Like the kind of Akira inspired Jimmy poster thing?
I have that at some fucking ridiculous like AI upscaled resolution.
You know what I'm
where can I put that?
do have a bunch of metal hellslinger, but the metal hellslinger ones, of course, they're cool.
yeah.
Where?
It's this one.
Where did I put these?
Now I'm confused.
the fuck did I put this shit?
Fuck yeah.
I know I have.
Customers will be like these products, I have a 3888 by 5760.
So I think I can make it this way.
Yeah, you can make it that size.
I should be able to pare that down to that resolution.
That's 1,800 by 4059.
then how big are these?
That's the thing is how big are these?
these plates being metal they can't be that big they're decent size I've seen like people that do
Like like sponsored segments in their in their YouTube videos, right?
Like this video is brought to you by display and they show them off and you see them like on the wall behind him and stuff like they're pretty decent size.
They're not tiny.
Customers only come in medium, Matt.
Let's see, so if you wanted to order, if you want to order one, think.
So you can choose medium is 17.7 by 12.6 inches.
I think so.
Yeah, looks like it.
Okay, so like a foot, foot and a half by a foot.
I don't, it doesn't look like all of the funcom ones can go to like higher sizes.
Alright, so the secret rule, like login screen, it can go to large at 26.6 by 18.9.
And they also have an extra large size, but it's not available in that.
So large is two feet by a foot and a half.
Yeah, I don't see so far I haven't seen you go to extra lines
They're only available in medium and large, it looks like.
So.
Yeah, I don't know, but like like roughly 18 by 12, that's pretty decent size, think.
Mm I mean, it's not a it's not what you would see out of like a movie poster.
Yeah, not a movie poster, no, but.
Too large.
Yeah, it's just a nice like, yeah, like a art piece.
they're metal and I believe they have like a like a magnet mounting system so you can like swap them out.
Because the are metal.
just have the little square that sits on your wall.
the plate is attached to that.
Yeah, you can just put a disk plate on it and then be like, I want look at a different one for a while.
And just take that off and put different disk plate on it.
Also, I guess you could probably put them on your fridge.
I don't know.
I mean, yeah.
Yeah.
Well, no, because the plate itself is not magnet.
It's metal.
But it's the magnet.
It's But you I'm saying you could get magnets and just put it on your fridge.
That's all I'm saying.
It would probably stay pretty good, you know?
Yeah.
It's not like taking a piece of paper and
You know, a paper poster, you could also magnet to your fridge, obviously, but like the display would actually like probably stay better.
I know.
How would you frame the metal poster and hang it?
I mean, I guess you could.
You could.
But why?
I mean, why not?
Because I don't want to buy another another frame for the thing that doesn't need a frame.
Because it might look cool.
All right, I guess if you bought like a giant oversized frame with like like intricate matting or something, maybe.
Might not.
You might not want to deal with magnets.
I will not accept this bigotry towards magnets farmer.
Not in my house.
Now, the fun part is that if you look at the like, I picked the one of of all of the characters just standing around glaring at you.
Yeah.
And if you go to about this poster, it'll say it's artist.
is Conan Exiles.
It doesn't really.
That's awesome.
Made by Conan Exiles.
Be like, wait, what?
Well, I think Conan Exiles is the somehow is the store front.
I don't know how that works, even though it says Funcom is like the slash, like the actual account or whatever.
Right.
That they made.
seems to be Conan Exiles.
It's Conan Exiles.
Yeah.
I clicked on artist Conan Exiles and it's like, okay, here is all the ones from Secret World, all the ones from Longest Journey, all the ones from Metal Hellsinger, it's all
Conan Exiles.
I think it was originally intended just for Conan Exiles.
If you look at the bottom right, the bottom has Funcom posters.
Explore our Conan Exiles merchandise collection.
Yeah.
Right, like it clearly was intended just for Exiles and they decided to...
throw some other stuff up there.
Which is cool.
Which is fine, yeah.
We're just pointing it out because it's silly.
if you go to collections, by the way, there's Conan Comics, Conan Exiles Key Arts, Longest Journey, Metal Hellsinger, and then fucking everything else is thrown into various.
does Longest Journey get its own category?
But fucking...
Anarchy Online, Heidensried, Secret World, I'll get the park, I'll get chucked into various.
It's various, yeah.
I'm looking at the various, it's Secret World, it's the park, it's Anarchy Online, and what's this one?
I guess that's Anarchy Online too.
It's got like speed ships.
I was like, one?
One?
Okay, but then my question is, so how does longest journey not fall into the same various bucket?
Why does it get its own bucket?
It's special.
Something's rigged.
Rigged.
I'm still curious, like, how much does the club cost?
Join the club.
Mm-ts, mm-ts, mm-ts, mm-ts.
by four get 33 % off.
Buy one, get 20 % off for the next five days.
Would you have to buy a disc plate to join the club?
I don't know.
Yeah, that is you have to you have to you have to buy a display and then check join club when you're buying a display for an extra cost.
Yeah.
So so if I wanted to make my own, I'd have to buy one and buy mine.
Well, can see, yeah, that's...
You're not saying it to the void.
I'm just looking at the other screen, I've got three big screens.
So I have to like, manually rotate.
Because you know, no Neuralink yet.
guess.
Can't have text just downloaded right into your brain yet.
Some kind of noob over here without instant access.
So the prices right now are normally, I would say for a medium, it says about $50.
A large is $100.
But right now, if you buy one, they're 20 % off.
If you buy two, it's 25 % off.
If you buy three, it's 30 % off and four plus is 33 % off.
So the large is currently sitting at normally $100 down to $79.20.
you can get a frame for it too.
There's a thing where they say they 3d print their frames.
Though, to be fair, they do look kind of weird.
I feel like, just looking at the things for it, it looks way cooler that you just have this metal thing on the wall.
To me, that's the draw of it, honestly.
Yeah, they subscribe to the club.
Yeah, cool shit.
It's very...metal.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, if you look at the the one of like the the login screen, the main line, know what they need?
They need a moves of madness one.
Yes, they do.
Actually, I need a moon.
You know, like my favorite one is that shirt, the shirt that I never fucking got one of the moons of madness shirt like the that particular shot.
I really like that.
I think that would be a really cool display.
I would buy that.
I would buy that one.
Yeah, if you look at the frames, like if you look at the main login screen one with a frame around it, it looks weird with a frame.
Maybe the graphite frame, maybe if you're have a frame, the graphite one does look kind of cool, but like white, black, it just looks like it's fake black wood that's just been made
to look like wood.
yeah.
Yeah, they look a little weird.
Yeah, I'd go none.
They were up to me.
I'd go none.
You remember the shirt, I remember the shirt.
Pepperidge Farms remembers the shirt.
Pepperidge Farm.
Should we do another hell?
We can if you want.
I don't really have materials...
But we can.
I don't know.
Pepper's farm better.
Why are you threatening Pepper's farm over there?
Pepper's farm better remember.
Pepper's farm remembers.
Gosh.
They don't remember.
Those jackasses.
You're missing...
I have a whiskey bottle.
I don't have a...
You branches Savage Coast?
I think?
What do I have?
peppers.
No.
So like there was like one or two people that were supposed to try and get me one of those shirts because it was at TwitchCon, I think it was.
It was like it was like a TwitchCon like San Diego.
And I knew multiple people that were supposed to like see if they could get me one.
And like they're like, I've got pictures with Andy and here's and here's the shirt I got for me.
we forgot to go.
God damn it.
And the and the one person I asked, I was like, hey,
I know you're going out there.
If you see them, can you get me a shirt?
He was like, yeah.
And he just, he got the shirt and he mailed it to me.
I was like, you're awesome.
I'm about different shirts.
far as I know, was only one Moons of madness shirt.
Yeah, was blackout.
one away on the show, right?
Yeah, we did.
None of us got that well, I mean the shirt that particular shirt that Mikey got got like raffled off or whatever It did.
Yes, it was raffled I've talked about something friend of I forget their name
I forgot their name who got the shirt.
But they live overseas.
took like a year.
live in Ukraine.
Yeah.
They live in Ukraine and I was like, all right.
Good luck.
Was it like I'll try or something?
I was like, I'll try my best.
It was actually relatively reasonable.
It wasn't it wasn't that bad.
But I also filled it with like a whole bunch of like random stuff too.
I was like...
Yeah, if I'm sending this over to to Ukraine, I'm going to fill it with like.
I don't know, American shot keys.
But the stuff I had to sign that was like, you're not sending money, you're not sending this, you're not sending that there was a lot of stuff that was like, you're just not
allowed to send this to Ukraine.
So was like, okay, all right.
So I tried to find like.
I got the U branch.
So I think if all we needed was the whiskey bottle U branch, we're good.
I say I've got, I say I've got a...
I had.
Well, awful, you got to get out of the instance though.
We need a new one.
Okay.
You can't summon in the already summoned one.
I don't think that works.
Gotta clear out.
You don't have to go home, but you can stay there.
The secret was is that when I received the T-shirt, yeah, we raffled it off.
I sent it off to to Ukraine.
But the funny part is that I did take a photo of myself wearing it before.
Before I sent it off.
Okay, bye.
I'm going into the portal.
So I wear it.
It looks good.
Like.
It's not a bad looking shirt.
No, it was really cool.
said like I couldn't make it to to the convention, but I knew people that were going and it just didn't just didn't work out.
But I get one apparently.
But I really do like.
Sorry, the.
I like the it was like plain black, like white, right?
Wait, we back in the same place?
Who didn't leave the instance?
we all did.
Yeah, we all did.
Well, someone had to still be in here.
No, I left.
Vomr left, you left.
Jimmy, what is behind you that is purple?
I have a purple light.
Okay.
It's shining on your hair.
I know.
And your hair looks purple.
Have you not noticed that?
No, I noticed it.
You know, I think last time I had it red.
I think it's an RGB light.
I had it red last time.
okay.
And the red is less noticeable.
Yeah.
But I had it I did not notice the red.
Yes, I could.
I it's less noticeable.
That's also a thing too, is right.
I've been watching...
I've been watching a lower decks.
I still got to watch.
Okay.
Also, I have something really, odd to share, I guess.
So my lighting down here in the basement is shit.
Like these fucking things have like shorted out and I don't want to fuck with them.
So like I was in Walmart looking for like bulbs or something and I found an under cabinet, like LED light.
Okay.
That you can like.
That can be regular and is like adjustable I can do colors and all this shit and like that is like over I kind of work right above me So the I have an RGB like floor lamp back here
but above my desk I needed like light and This thing shorted out So I got this under cabinet like fucking Rectangle light that can be controlled by my phone and I okay
Cause this is like drop tile ceiling.
So I just like fucking screwed it to a board and stuck it up there.
So like I can, I don't know if you'll see this on screen or not, but like I can literally just go on my phone and be like, I want this to be like a different color.
nice.
Okay.
Like it's, yeah, it's hard to tell it's yellow now.
Like yellow, yellow.
Green?
Does a green do anything?
you need to brighten it.
You can kind of see a green hue, I think.
saw a little bit of a change.
I don't know if I saw green.
The purple in the background is also like messing with it, right?
Because the two are fighting right now.
that's red.
you can see the red.
You can see the red.
Yeah.
You can really see the red.
Yes, Satan.
You can just mess with that.
We have that for like our outside lights, like our outside of our house, like our porch light is one that I changed to a bulb that is all kinds of colors.
Hold on.
Wait, that's all right.
Let's usually have this set to 40 percent.
That's the other thing.
Like I can.
swipe up and down to like adjust the
I adjust the brightness.
OK.
Well, yeah, that was my solution because like this drop tile ceiling down here has these little pot lights in them.
And like, I don't know who the fuck installed them in this house, but like they've started shorting out.
They were like eating bulbs and now they've straight up just like shorted out.
Like I do not want to fuck with it.
I don't want to get into that.
I was like, I just need a light above my desk.
You're like, I don't want to catch fire.
Like, I'm not.
Yeah, I'm not going to.
Yeah, I'm just leaving it off.
like that it's fine and i get that i'll have to i'll have to get a picture maybe i can put this let me get a picture and put it on discord hold on it is it is kind of funny like i
was really surprised how well it worked out though be honest it's like a little project
Yeah, but I that where I took the, where we got like a, like I put a smart bulb outside instead of the, the, you know, the normal bulb we put outside.
And so yeah, periodically it's like, I mean, most times we keep it white, but sometimes I'm like, you know, I could change that color for something.
So on holidays, like I'll change it to like green or red.
And it's the only bulb that I have that I bought that actually did that.
You my Discord password?
What the fuck?
Password 123.
close, but no.
What the hell,
What the shit?
You're locked out of Discord?
On my phone.
So the secret also is is that if you find yourself you're like man I keep one shotting every Krampus I see.
How can I stop one shotting all these Krampus.
Just change your animal location.
Drop it down to like 10 % damage and yeah, you won't be one-shotting them.
at once.
shit.
the more you know, rainbow, after I said that.
Do do do.
Yeah, do do do do.
Hold I'm gonna do this differently.
Nyeh heh heh heh.
and
don't remember what your password's feeling.
Yeah, well, they were a password, actually.
That's actually in, Shit, what does that mission call?
When the hatchet falls?
When the hatchet falls, the password is...
is password.
Which is pretty great.
Well, it's a very secure password.
Yeah.
It was like, isn't the isn't the hint for that?
Like change this password like it's a it's like I'm sending it to this.
You know, I've reset your password to just password change it when you can or like change it immediately.
Something like that, yeah.
Let's see, I need...
Cheers!
Where is?
Copy.
I can't
What the shit?
That's your password.
But the I in shit is a one.
Yeah.
Or an exclamation point.
Right.
Yeah.
It's an exclamation point.
The three.
The E is a three.
There we go.
The S is a five.
Yeah.
Totally.
What the shit.
All right.
I I got it.
I just copied it from my own computer.
Where does the pouch of soil drop?
I have the pouch of soil.
Are you trying to get one?
I'm trying to get one.
Blue Mountain.
Touch the sky, Blue Mountain.
I can always check TSWDB for that information.
It is true.
That is true.
TSWDB.
Officially a sponsor of this show.
That's not true.
I have not received my check.
I didn't say it was a sponsor that involved money.
That's what a sponsor means.
Volmers probably going what?
Yeah, wait what?
Checks in the mail
that was awesome.
Exposure, exposure.
What I normally say on stream is I'll be like, TSWDB, hashtag not sponsored, hashtag not sponsored.
Yeah, we got to like hashtag ad and pay promo.
That's right.
No, they're not paying us.
No, I just had a really cool thing.
I found one on the Krampus.
I killed the Krampus.
No, I didn't kill him.
I got him down to half health.
He started running away.
But as he was running away.
The Revenant spawned from the Shadowbound weapon, chased after the Krampus.
Krampus summoned the portal, and then the Revenant killed the Krampus.
Yep, I had the same thing happen.
I'm in a new instance, by the way.
This one has Krampus in it, so this one's good.
Is Krampus free?
No, it's not if his cramp is free that'd be a problem right there be no Krampus If there's no Krampus that means you can't you can't do it is crampus.
It is crampus filled It is filled to the brim with Krampi How many Krampi can fill one bomber kiss seems the one everyone to say cramp pussy, but like I feel like that's
offensive Yeah, let's not go there
But but that's what they were saying in the discord.
So I'm just, know, just I'm just outing them.
Passing along the news.
Yeah.
Passing along the news is not pronounced like that.
It is a hundred percent pronounced like that.
I don't see any other way to pronounce what you put in this.
That is not my fault.
If.
If Secret World were still in the main public consciousness, people would 100 % be calling it that.
First of all, there was two S's, and it's clearly crampussy.
Which is a whole different subreddit.
Yeah.
That's, yeah.
You
Look, it's Christmas, it's cold out, you need some warmth.
So it's deep and warm.
It's furry.
You know I'm just saying.
It's like his back knees.
The E is not pronounced like that.
No judge.
We don't judge here.
Okay.
We just jury and execute.
That's right.
Krampus.
I look my way better.
Yeah.
I do too.
It is funnier.
Something should be judged.
You're just saying.
next you're going to tell me there's something wrong with pregnant Sonic or even pregnant Sonic.
Well, I'll hear none of that.
Nippleheim?
Well, that's because it's a reference to A, that she, that her nipples are out, but B, it's more of reference to the South Park Heavy Metal episode, which is a riff on the old
Heavy Metal animated movie.
And in that episode, they get really high on cat urine and go to Nippopolis.
So that's what I'm referencing with Nippleheim is both that she has no top, but also the whole Nipopolis thing.
It has layers.
It's a layered reference.
It's like onion.
Or ogres.
Ogres.
Ogres have layers.
It also has layers?
Cake.
This is U-Branch, right?
Yeah.
No, it's U-Branch.
It's an us branch It's a wee branch that would be the Sonic but I okay vulnerable.
I gave you two options.
I said pregnant Sonic or pregnant Sonic Soniac So no Sonic the Templar guy.
Yeah, I know I'm sure of him being impregnated as a incubator
I was really proud of that picture.
Everything is true.
I that Sonic was fucking inspired.
I was an inspired creation.
Mm-mm-mm.
Good luck.
Hell's back.
Better than ever.
So the good thing about being really tiny is I can like I can tell when I'm right behind the thing.
It's really easy for me to tell.
Ha!
Really easy for me to tell when I'm right behind the column.
god damn it, we phased without circle again.
I'm killing her so fast.
Am I supposed to be?
Nope, nope.
Got it wrong.
Yep.
my God.
Did that take out three of us?
Yeah.
I'd reset that.
Do you want me to reset?
Sure.
Okay, I'll just run three of us is a lot at one time.
If it was just me, I'd be like, no, don't worry about it.
I can't see the thing.
I was trying to figure out what it was or what's supposed to be.
I mean one side has a white face with a white swirly behind it, one side has like a black face with a black swirly behind it.
And you mash that with the color on the ground.
And you also don't want to run away from her because the way the circle split works is the further out you are, the more you have to distance.
You have to traverse to change sides.
Correct.
You're right next to her.
You have to take like one step to be on what like, well, no, that's I was close to her, but I was trying to see where like where you guys are.
Yeah, I was just like, I was on the wrong side.
It does take a little getting used to.
Well, everyone that's the other thing is everyone can get different sides.
Like you can't just go to the side someone else is on.
That does not work.
Right.
Yeah.
Well, no, I was trying see it like a chip pop up on above me.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah, it should.
Yeah.
well, you're really tall.
That could be.
Yeah.
I'll say that's my excuse is that it does it.
And I'm like, I black.
It is really tiny.
But that time I got it right.
That is really tiny.
Dude, Vomr?
Is it Vomr?
Vomr, you're just nuking the boss?
Like, what are you doing?
It's gotta be Vomr.
I think Vomr is nuking hell.
It ate me, that's for sure.
I'm sorry guys.
That's me.
It's you?
Okay.
No, I don't think so.
Bomber is the only one that's E17.
think Bomber is spamming Quite the opposite.
feel like I'm doing absolutely nothing.
I'm like pea shooting over here.
Wait, wait.
Did I not have that one right?
Probably not.
Dude, I got two snowballs thrown.
I still didn't get her.
Alright, I'm the first one out this time.
Hey, I'm actually alive.
Nice.
Well done.
I try.
I was not in the circle.
Wind.
did you sit in the store?
Well, I was trying to figure out where and I'm slow.
Just stand right in the middle.
It's a yeah.
Yeah.
Works every time.
Every time it works half the time.
I'm very proud.
I lasted a lot longer.
I mean, that's true.
You did.
Yeah.
So now that I'm down...

It's part of the winter sale of the animal.
Well, yeah, I'm coming.
But, yeah, what, why?
Waffle can't get out because he's gone.
Waffle!
No!
Is this?
No, it's not even published by Funcom.
What is this?
What?
Why?
looking at.
Empyrion Galactic Survival is part of the Funcom sale.
I didn't know this was a Funcom game.
Maybe they're just a publisher?
No, it doesn't list them as such.
On the game, it's Elyon Game Studios is listed as...
Oath?
What?
I'm going to do a quick Google search.
I'm going to Google search this.
Uhhh, Funcom.
Funcom working with Elyon Game Studios on Empyrean's sequel, Dark Faction Expansion, releasing in February.
Someone put it Reddit.
Okay.
Here it is.
Funcom PR when they put this out January 2023.
Elion and Funkom partner to expand Empyrion's sandbox ...
survival universe the partnership will deliver fans new installments in the popular ...
survival sandbox universe starting with Dark Faction the ...
first ever expansion to the original Empyrion galactic ...
survival.
Ha!
Okay.
Funcom and Elyon Game Studios announced today a new partnership.
Right, right, right, right.
While Funcom contributes...
...Imperion developers freedom to focus entirely on development of future Imperion products, while Funcom contributes with funding and publishing services.
Okay, so it is a more of a publisher.
Besides a new unannounced Imperion title, the two companies are also bringing Dark Faction, the first ever expansion to the original game, to Steam and Epic Game Stores.
February 2024.
Okay, so was much earlier this year.
Okay.
All right.
Cool.
Did we win?
No.
Why not?
We did not win.
Alright.
Out of all the games I've heard of, that one was more of a...
surprise.
Can we stop nuking the boss?
Holy shit.
Don't worry.
At least two of us will die and you'll get a phase.
Yeah.
You'll get your thingy.
How?
What am I?
Okay, I'm not even sure what I'm dying from She flinched!
She flinched!
The big bitch flinched!
Nice, nice.
I somehow got two snowballs.
How the fuck I did that?
I have armor you are you are free to resume your DPS.
DPS away like Obama's like I wanted to go healer.
Yeah, but all you have to do is it's just not DPS until she flinches.
That's.
We're like in the classic, DPS don't know how to stop DPSing situation or something.
So anyway, this Empyrean Galactic Survival game ...
Looking at it, seems pretty cool.
Says game similar to it, No Man's Sky.
Conan Exiles.
Wow, you guys did really good on that particular...
Spinny.
Spin.
Spinny chair.
What's what's funny is I don't like I don't know it bomber it doesn't strike me normally as the See thing unleash hell without
You know it's always good that exactly right.
beast mode.
no.
Yeah, that's also because bomber went beast.
You can't go beast mode before the tank hits her.
Right.
Yeah.
The last phrase, the last phrase I see, I see bomber doing is yeah.
Cry, cry havoc and let's slip the dogs.
Let's slip the gods of DPS.
Every time she does the wind phase, like her aggro resets and I have to re grab aggro.
when she teleports in the middle.
like, you can't, basically you can't like run out from behind the pillar until I do and grab her aggro.
Yeah.
Just FYI, that's, that's, this is an aggro reset happening.
I guess it's fair if you don't know that that's happening, but yeah, there's an aggro reset when she teleports away and back.
Same
So if you wanted the supernatural bundle or the operative bundle, Dawn of the Morning Light, those are all 60 % off right now.
don't think they've ever repriced them to cover the fact they don't come with ORM anymore, have they?
Probably not.
So maybe they're actually worth buying at that price point, guess, ethnically.
Let's see what the thing says it comes with.
Yep.
no.
Does not mention, does not mention arm.
You just have abandoned me in my hour of need.
Abandoned, I say.
How, Bawner?
Stay behind the thing?
snow.
Yeah.
Waffles are real outdoorsy.
a circle that's right there at my feet.
part of the Supernatural one.
Supernatural bundle includes refurbished Ornithopter, the Phoenix Raymond, exclusive title Supernatural Agent, 40 ability points, 40 skill points, and 50,000 anima shards.
Cosmetics.
I think they're all cosmetics, right?
Isn't that basically what all of them are?
Pretty much, yeah.
Well, think the one I thought was like a mount, right?
Yeah.
I guess it's also technically a cosmetic for your sprint, but it feels less like a cosmetic and more like an actual thing.
If that makes sense.
Yeah, so a mount, so an outfit, a title, some ability points, some skill points, and a chunk of anima shards.
and the Phoenix, the Phoenix Raymond.
It's like feathers on top.
like a red feathers around your shoulders.
I think I get third phase.
Yeah, there we go, third phase.
Well, it's interesting.
You can't see the rain.
From your POV.
camera's...
Like it doesn't render the entities because it's too far away.
It's like the icy rain is happening all over the place.
It doesn't seem far away though.
I guess it's enough.
No, sorry, you are too far.
So it's not where the camera is that's the problem.
The problem is your character is too far away, so it won't render certain entities.
It has nothing to do with where the viewpoint is from.
Right, so get closer.
Okay.
You're in the world, you can't.
That's not true.
Do you have the photo mode mod installed?
No.
Still?
Or that was on the old computer?
That was on the old system.
You had it at some point.
No, because I've re-flashed Windows, Linux like four or five times.
Yeah, that makes sense.
If you have photo mode, could fly your camera out and see the effects.
yeah, so when it moves the camera, it doesn't change what it's telling your computer to your client to render.
It's only renders things in range of your character, not in range of the camera.
You know what saying?
So like certain dungeons are like...
You just can't see shit from the analog camera.
I'm using photo mode right now to spy on you right behind the pillar.
I'm being stalked.
Away, away, foul demon.
It's true, I can't see anything else.
I can see you, I can see her.
Yeah, it won't like render things like outside a certain range, certain entities.
She's at 15 % health.
Interestingly enough, it's also not even rendering the floor?
Yeah.
Like the light up?
Yeah.
it's not rendering it at all.
It's just empty.
Yeah, it's just empty.
It's like a cutout, like a silhouette cutout.
Do you want talk about the,
the dune stuff?
yeah.
Right, that's Aside from that, couple of Conan Exiles and Dune stuff specifically.
Specifically, Dune Awakening had an interview of Joel Bilos performed by Pirate Software.
It said, excited to announce we'll be sharing a live chat between Pirate Software and Joel Bilos, our creative director, about all things Dune Awakening.
Now, sadly, I did not have I did not find the time to watch that I meant to today and I just.
Forgot.
Shame, shame, shame.
But Jimmy, you said that you caught it.
Yeah.
And.
You're telling us a little about it, but no.
While you're beating on hell.
OK.
Can you describe a couple of like the.
The points that they went over.
important thing that you're like, hey.
Nope.
You should have done it yourself.
I know.
This is your point.
I'm just kidding.
I flat out refuse.
It's my own dang fault.
Trust me.
I know.
He's not you didn't do not to my home.
I I like caught it like accidentally.
I don't even think I knew it was going to happen.
They literally caught it like on accident.
And then I ended up like like rewinding to catch the beginning of it or like the Twitch version of rewinding basically.
Mm hmm.
I think I legitimately, I'm pretty sure I have pirate software like I'm following on Twitch.
And I noticed that it said like, Joe Biles was on there.
Like, I'm like, I just clicked and they were already like in the interview.
Like I didn't know what was happening.
I would just happen to follow the guy and saw it like as it was going on.
It was like, I'll tune into this.
And then I went to like the VOD and.
There you go.
Currently on cooldown.
Yeah, you still get the icy claws though.
Yeah.
So yeah.
They had a really big discussion on Dune as a whole.
I feel like most of it seemed centered around like the more end game and PvP aspects.
I think that's where his interests and concern, potential concerns or etc.
lie.
From stuff that I've seen of him, does like PvP.
Like he does do.
I mean, it's fair, right?
If you're talking about longevity of a game like that, you do want to know how that stuff is going to work.
So
Yeah, it was a lot about that.
I was talking with the guys prior to the stream.
Interestingly enough, Pirate Software, apparently, big fan of the Secret World game, said it was one of his favorite MMOs or maybe his favorite MMO period or something like that.
He had high praise for TSW.
I don't believe he's even aware of Legends.
it's funny is like he didn't know that who he was talking to, but he didn't know that I guess connect that like fun com is who made secret world and is making dune.
And that the guy he's talking to, Joe Bilos is, you know, was the, the director, game director.
Yeah.
You were saying that sort of like, right.
He was talking to Joe Bilos.
He loves secret world.
He mentioned secret world.
But didn't connect the two together that, hey, I'm talking to then he was trying to, it was really funny.
was like, for me, it was like odd to watch.
I understand, like, and again, like I understand why he kept explaining what Secret World was because he's explaining to his audience that's watching, like, this is Secret World.
This is a little bit about it why I liked it.
But it basically sounded like he was explaining Secret World to the guy that made Secret World is what it seemed like.
which was really odd to see.
But it was also really nice.
It wasn't a negative.
He basically, I think, had said something on the lines of he got Secret World vibes from Dune.
And it was like, yeah, we make...
That'll happen.
I've made Secret World.
We worked on Secret World.
That's our thing.
Be like, I got Secret World vibes from this.
Be like, yeah, because Scrummeter that's us.
We make that.
I worked on that like, so like I worked on that and then he's like talking about and again, I feel like he's more explaining to the audience than to Joel, but because it's a
one on one interview, it almost looks like he's explaining to all like and yeah, there's the ability wheel, you know, and this part was really cool and Joel's like, yep.
huh.
Yeah.
That is the thing that we did.
It's Joel's plane.
Talk a little bit about.
something about like, you know, who he worked on coming up with the concept for the ability will and stuff like that.
Joe, Joe was a good sport about it.
Like he chuckled and, they talked for a little bit, like not super long, but like a very little bit about Seeker World.
But I think that also was a, a plus from that guy's side because
Not only like he really likes Secret World and he got those vibes and then to find out like, it's the same company that made this other thing I like.
It's the same company.
It's some of the same writers.
Yeah.
Which is again, I don't remember what's Joel said.
Like he mentioned someone that he worked with, like some other developer at Funcom that he worked with on this on specifically the ability concept or something.
And being excited about it or something like that.
So like I would say like the majority of the discussion was around like like like
End game server tech.
was really interesting discussions about the instancing of PVE versus like server meshing for the deep desert area and how that works.
I can probably find that for you guys and link it.
It's on YouTube.
Yeah, I could find it.
I don't know if it's You go ahead, I'll find it.
don't know if it's on.
It is.
On YouTube, is it?
I know it is because I reposted that.
You queued it up and didn't watch it?
That's why you know.
Here you go.
Tee-co!
you're right.
Do an Awakening Dev interview.
Yeah, there it is.
Yeah.
Yeah, they talked so okay.
you hear you can just go over the topics like the game design document, his history with Dune.
Does it it call out where he talks about
Secret World or not?
I'm kind of curious.
Yeah, secret world of the game.
It's got a, it's got a, it's marked on the YouTube bomber.
It's kind of like midway through.
You can, it's like actually like a, I don't know.
It's like maybe four minutes or something.
yeah, they talk, they talk a bit about the,
And gain content.
interestingly to me, they talked about worm riding, which isn't there saying like, isn't in, but they want to be in, which is different from what I had heard originally.
I had heard that like, they're basically like, you're not riding a worm to get it out of your fucking brain dipshit.
Like, feel like I don't know, none of the exact words were not that obviously, but like, it was kind of like that vibe originally was like.
What about worm riding?
Get the fuck out of here.
Like you're not kidding.
No, we're not doing that.
Stop it.
Was I swear to God was like the impression I got at least.
from this one, it sounds like they maybe like switched gears on that and that worm riding.
Well, it's probably eventually going to be a thing you can do.
Probably.
I can see them.
But I don't think I think it's like not at launch.
Well, you know, the whole small section about the game self hosting like that, where I think you talked about they want to do that.
They might sort of do it.
That's a new spoilers here.
But from what they've said, I mean, it's not really spoilers.
I haven't played through it, obviously, is that they've said that basically part of the main story is that the Fremen have essentially disappeared.
Like they're not there.
And part of the main story is that you have to basically search them out and find them and what happened to them.
And because it's not the same exact universe that is going on in the books.
And that's why they change certain things like the shield and laser combination creating a nuclear explosion.
They're like, that just doesn't work out.
Yeah.
I'm we just can't do that.
So it's a little different.
Some things are different.
And how they kind of explain that was they had one of the trailer videos was like it, by the way, it's basically it's it's a different universe.
Like Paul is not there or he's different or something like he's just a normal person or something like it's not it's not exactly the same.
Am I crazy?
Didn't they cover that in one of the newer trailers or something?
One of the trailers, yeah.
I think it was either the first or second look into Zoe.
Yeah, where they focus that trailer, yeah.
But it's one of those like, but you can't really have the worm riding without having the Fremen.
Yeah, so it's alternate universe.
What if Paul was never born?
Yeah.
So he's just so nice.
He's not there.
He's never born.
Right.
OK.
Sorry, I didn't mean to do that.
So then it makes sense that they wouldn't necessarily have worm writing At least in the beginning I said I feel like it was maybe miss more of like a technical thing.
Yeah, probably Like that that was that was what I was getting from it was like at least originally it was like that's a whole That's a whole can of worms guys
Can of worms?
it?
Get it?
A can of Shia Hulusi.
You're a, how dare you.
Every time I hear where they use the term, was it shy, shy, halood or shy, how they pronounce it.
that I instead think of Shia LaBeouf.
Okay, so now you just need to like tell AI to make a thing of like Shia LaBeouf's shi-u-d, like coming out of the sand.
Shia LaBeouf on a, on a sandworm.
Shia LaBeouf's head on a sandworm.
Yeah.
Like, he just is the sandworm.
know what mean?
Riding on a sandworm shy alabuff.
No, I want him to be the sandworm.
That way he, like, eats people.
We write the actual Cannibal Shy Lava song when it backs is so excited, they added a U to yes.
That's how excited bomber is about that.
But hell you is!
Going after Spice Bows, Shy LeBuff.
I don't know that it needed a song, but that is pretty great.
Make it happen.
Make that happen.
this maybe like get rid of some shit.
I don't have room for these icy co-
God damn it.
What are we here for if not all the ideas?
We're here for all the other ideas.
All the bad ideas, Yeah.
I said all the other ones.
Mmmmm
We're all just hanging around
So yeah, hopefully I'll be able to check it out tomorrow.
But that's a day too late, you know, to talk about it.
mean, guess we can always, if we think there's enough, because my memory is shit.
I watched it and I remember bits and pieces, but I don't know, man.
I've had a rough couple of weeks.
Yeah, yeah.
yeah, if we want maybe next one of these.
You know, if we feel like it's relevant, we could go over it.
Go a little more in depth.
Yeah, I'll still check it out because I still I still say, yeah, if you can go ahead and check it out.
It's just I said as a secret world person, it's worth it just to see that moment of like the world revelation.
And also just really cool to like know that, you know, some like someone like that also appreciated secret world.
So someone of that like impact in the space, right?
I'll he does seem to have a very big impact right now.
I was saying that he kind of has a he kind of gives off a vibe almost like a like a like a Mr.
Rogers or almost like Bob Ross sort of sort of vibe or at least that's what I get.
That sort of I you know, the sort of vibe of like he's supportive.
He's always giving people advice.
He's always like
You know, he's always telling people like, you know, like they were like, you know, I'm a I'm, you know, I've been thinking about making this game and doing this.
And he's like, just do it, just do it, just do it.
Because the more you do it, the better you'll get like.
Shabby doesn't know about Secret World Legends yet.
But like, you know, he's always giving advice that's generally like, you know, go ahead and do the thing.
Like do what you can because more than anything else, you're improving yourself.
Even if what you make is not great, you've learned in the process of making it and that learning is more valuable than anything else.
Like he just seems to give advice like that.
So he always feels like a...
Yeah, Bob Ross or like Mr.
Rogers sort of vibe to him.
And I dig that.
I dig that.
I think it's really cool.
So yeah, no surprise.
He's like, and by the way, Secret World is awesome.
Yes, Secret World is awesome.
We know this.
Of course it is.
Game recognizes game, maybe?
That's right.
yeah, like I said, I think that was really good.
I don't remember anything being like...
I don't remember anything being contentious or worrisome.
I feel like basically...
If there was any concerns or something like they seemed pretty alleviated by the conversation, at least as far as the interviewer was concerned.
OK.
I say, I have been curious to check it out because, I do.
have this idea of of what Dune Awakening is going to be and like like other games that it's like.
And I.
But of course, its own entity is not going to be like exactly like other games.
Why would they do that?
But you know how we basically compare games by you saying like it's got.
This is going to be the next wow killer.
We just compare them together.
But I have this idea in my head of what...
of what Dune Awakening sort of would resemble.
But yeah, the more I watch on it, the more I want
Yeah.
Like I said, like right now in my mind, I've got a big like Albion Online vibe and Albion Online is a, it's sort of a, it's a PVP centric game.
has, Albion Online is more of like a, like a Diablo style top down isometric view.
But at its core, it's a PVP game because they, it's a game about crafting and building up your character and crafting gear.
And then they put right in the middle of the map and the
They put all the stuff to make the best gear and then it's a PvP area.
So at a Tart it's basically a PvP game It kind of sounds it sounds very similar, right?
Yeah Yeah, also the thing too.
The thing is too about Albion Online is Albion Online is one of those sleeper games like it is
I guess sort of along the lines of like RuneScape almost like it is one of those games that's played by a lot more people than you think it is.
Right, right.
Like, like it's certainly it's not it's not considered one of the top like AAA whatever games, but it almost like outpaces a couple of them like in in pure numbers.
But it sounds a little bit of that concept with they're like, but the open desert, and that's where we're going to put the big supplies or the best stuff.
But in order to get to it, you have to risk going through everyone else.
But having a lot more systems than that.
And worms.
And worms, of course.
Can't have worms.
But I don't know, that's sort of in my head what I imagine when they talk about Dune Awakening is sort of like a Dune-styled Albion Online mixed with Conan Exiles mixed
with...
Mix with other games.
But the more interviews you listen to, the more that gets honed down.
more into what they're trying to describe.
Right.
I getcha.
What else?
Conan Exiles
And in it they basically go over all the numbers all the numbers from the year.
And going over this letter it keeps me thinking man I should really play Conan Exiles more.
Yeah it was on my steam replay for a little bit.
Just because they've added so much cool shit to the game.
They have taken away stuff like I think they said the.
They also started a new Twitch drop today.
I'm not usually excited with their Twitch drops.
Well, they got rid of the battle system.
But it's a yeah, they got rid of the battle system.
They said that.
But they stuff like.
The sacred hunts, they added stuff like taverns, they added stuff of having.
Having companions that follow you around, not just thralls, but companions with their own storylines.
You really went out on a limb with some pretty unusual items to get those kills.
3080 kills with body parts.
Nice.
yeah, did they add, did they add like executions?
Is that a thing that happened?
Yes.
Yes, they added that too, yeah.
Because that I think existed in Age of Conan.
Like per weapon of the things I actually liked when I tried Age of Conan was like you could, that had like an execution system.
Fatality.
I think that's basically just bringing something back from Asia Conan, kinda.
So yeah, sacred hunt is not holy when the night falls.
You got ambushed at night by were hyenas 9.8 million times.
my God.
Them dudes are putting in work.
A new way of life began.
You showed us there's another way to live in exile and an incredible act of kindness.
You freed 1.7 million followers from cages in 2024.
New companions were made in the last couple of months with Lu-Fei.
What's your favorite new follower over Freya?
23,659
players had luffy 13,700 Freya
So these are still barbaric lands though, your favorite types of weapons for fatalities were one handed sword, 3.9 million, one handed axe, 3 million, katana, 2.9 million.
Then they go on to talk about their creators and all the different people that do all of the different mods.
a of different creators that do stuff for them.
And then a few, a few words from the community managers from Andy and Carol.
So yeah, it's a good blog.
I feel like I could read their whole letters, but I don't know.
It's like, know, basically like, man, what a year,
But Carol just joined them in August.
So Carol is a new community manager.
Has been with Funcom for a lot longer than that though, but just joined the community management team.
They must have must have failed the psych test.
I feel like have to fail the psych test to get community manager.
I don't think you can pass one.
You're community manager now.
no.
If you pass the psych test, you're not you're not qualified for community manager, I think.
You got you have to be fucking insane.
I want to deal with all of those jackasses on a daily basis.
I feel like it's got to be a requirement.
We love you, Andy.
And the rest.
Yeah, don't and everybody in a negative way.
Yeah, yeah.
Positively.
I'm clearly not all there.
I'm just saying.
And then on a final note, kind of a sadder note, it depends.
Conan Exiles also left Xbox Game Pass in late November.
They left the Game Pass?
Yes, it says, as you may have noticed by now, Conan Exiles is leaving Game Pass on November 30th.
We sincerely appreciate those who entered the fray from Game Pass and know this news may be disappointing for some of you.
If you've been playing on Game Pass and wish to continue your journey,
But we're on the fence about buying the game to keep we will be running a considerable discount on the base game on the Xbox and Microsoft storefronts before the 30th.
Which is obviously a little late now.
Check back for details.
or not, because the month's past is done.
I thought maybe like fun com was like, man.
Yeah, probably not.
It's my guess that that decision was probably a Microsoft one, not a fun come on.
I assume, of course.
So you're buttonized today at least, we're like, hey, but we'll drop discounts for you if you actually want to pick up the game up.
And of course, right now it is still on sale for winter events.
So base game is what, $9.99?
currently as part of the sale.
So yeah, and that's it.
That's all the news we found.
We say we that I found.
And I...
I would say usually Jimmy finds some more.
How many times have I been like, this is the news that I found.
Jimmy's like, you forgot, was there this?
was this.
Well, to be fair, I did have details on the Bibles thing.
It's true.
I actually watched it.
Did you actually watch it?
So I feel like I contributed there.
Absolutely.
Added little more contents or context.
Yeah.
my butt but also my brain's just been mush like the past couple of weeks mine too man
It's been just been one of those winters.
Yeah.
At least the next couple of weeks, I'll get to get up like an hour later because the kids get winter vacation.
So true, true.
Yeah, all day.
But you know, trade offs, trade offs.
I had to walk to pick up my son from school the other day and it was when.
ways.
No, but I do I was in the middle of this this flu that I've been getting over lately.
So was right in the middle of it and it's sort of like, all right, I gotta go walk and get them.
My house is like here and the school is here and the road goes like this.
So it literally is uphill both ways.
It's both downhill and uphill both ways.
It's Escher.
It's an Escher way to get there.
It's like a valley.
The road's like a valley and the school's on the top of one side and we're on the top house on the top of other side.
When I walk, it's downhill and then up to the school.
When I walk back, it's downhill and then up to the house, right?
So it's both ways.
It's uphill both ways, yeah.
No, our school is a it's a it's entirely busing.
It's a I'm sorry, a non-busing district.
And yeah, the school is like an like a mile a mile and change away.
So it's not too bad.
It's not too bad to walk.
Okay, bomber.
I try to get more sleep.
I went to bed earlier last night and you know what happened?
I woke up fucking 630 and couldn't go back to sleep.
I end up working for like two extra hours in the morning for no fucking reason.
It's stupid.
That's what happens to my wife.
If she goes to bed too early, she just wakes up early.
Do I tried I was like I'm gonna go to bed early.
I'll get I'll get like an extra hour asleep.
My body was like nope.
Nope.
You have conditioned me to like four and half hours max.
Yeah.
can't see me dancing over here.
That's why you fell asleep on stream.
That's one of the reasons.
One of the reasons, yeah.
Lack of sleep.
the lack of sleep.
Also, like, seriously, like I consume a lot of Mountain Dew and for me to not consume any for like an eight hour plus stretch before starting a stream is very strange.
Like, I don't know what I was doing or not doing, but like.
Yeah, I was I was severely lacking in sleep and caffeine.
And then I was drinking vodka.
that's like.
Alcohol.
Yeah, alcohol doesn't wake you up unless you mix it with something.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, unless you.
Yeah, well, I mixed up a ginger beer, but that doesn't really do it.
No.
I was like my drink to gamble with was there they came around and they're like, would you like a free drink, sir?
I'd be like, yes.
Red Bull and vodka.
heart attack.
Dude, that shit is gross.
Like I'll drink fucking anything, but that shit is gross.
It really is.
It's like metallic is all get out, but yeah, not good.
But when you're gambling and I was much younger, I was like, give it to me.
I want to stay awake.
My brother used to drink the ones back in the day that were like, I think they ended up getting banned.
I don't think that you should get them anymore.
What, like Four Loko or something?
I was like the ones that give you a goddamn heart attack, like legitimately.
Yeah.
Like it has a warning on the can, like don't drink more than one in a day.
Like you literally could die.
Yeah.
But this was, this was also years ago back, before, I think there's maybe regulation on those at all.
Did get like a super tall can?
Might as well have just been like methamphetamines in a can.
They're like, it's okay.
No, it's not okay.
Don't drink that.
mean, even Red Bull and vodka.
Yeah, just, I do not suggest, just don't, don't do it.
Yeah, it's not a good idea.
No, this is a terrible idea.
But if you're going to be at a table down in Atlantic City gambling from like midnight to two in the morning.
for it.
Vodka shot.
with a lemon juice concentrate.
Really.
Okay.
Really hits you in the teeth, you know, and like shocks your system because like the lemon like straight lemon juice concentrate is like.
Super super like like I don't know like vitamin C like acidic your whole body is like shit Yeah, did you do to me?
It's not like caffeine.
It's not you know Red Bull.
