Thanks for the episode guys

good show as always! Did the live stream crash?

We do have air conditioning over here in Europe 😂 Don’t know where that rumour comes from.

Data says less than five percent of homes in England have air conditioning. www.forbes.com/sites/marshallshepherd/2022/07/15/most-homes-in-the-united-kingdom-have-no-air-conditioningunprecedented-heat-looms/

​@@SIFTDGamesI used to live in UK, now I'm in Portugal. Home AC is rare in both. Makes sense in the UK as the weather is only very hot about 2 weeks of the year. In Portugal the houses are built for warm climate, so it's actually quite cool indoors, people focus more on the heating aspect for winter.

@@SIFTDGamesMaybe in the UK, definitely not the case in the EU. Most of us have AC.

Nope. Just 20 percent of European homes have air conditioning. All it takes is a five-second google search. www.cnn.com/2022/07/22/opinions/america-europe-air-conditioning-climate-hockenos/index.html#:~:text=In%20Europe%2C%20according%20to%20one,to%2090%25%20in%20the%20US.

I know my past few places in Seattle have not had AC. Tho it is generally a decent 70 *F. There have been a few hot weeks out of the year.

thanks for the podcast

Great Discussion on games

Good episode guys. Enjoying the show.

TY

i just resubscribed on twitch with prime.

Its unfortunate what happened to PSVR2.. I think a lot of people are missing out on VR gaming. VR games is so much fun, I play less flatscreen games now because of Quest headset. Works well on PC and standalone. Quest needs more competitor in the VR space..

Is it just me but i always wanted a Beyond Good and Evil 2 more like a sneaky stealthy Zelda game? Jade and Iris Network sneaking around getting the scoop on some government. But i'm sure it'll be more Ubisoft style open world objective checklist. Oh well great show as usual.

You have to remember that the original game was supposed to be an Ocarina of time style adventure game, that pivoted to a Metal Gear style Stealth game halfway through development. While I love the game and it's story I never trusted UBI after that because it means that the franchise had no focus. By ending the original on a cliffhanger and then announcing a prequel, they are basically saying that there are not 2 but 3 games in this franchise, and they can't even give us 2

Great show guys.

Best gaming podcast!

I didn't think the dlc for Elden Ring was hard. The last boss slapped me around, but that's about it.

I’m *maybe* nearing the end. I’ve been taking my time and honestly got lost and confused how to get two of the map fragments. Now I’m clearing as much as possible, but yeah I’ve found more non boss enemies to be harder than some of the bosses lol. However, this particular character is a pretty OP strength/faith build. I’ve mainly been using the cragblade star fist combo and it’s insane how it continually staggers bosses. Combined with the right talismans it’s nearly unstoppable

Also, before I even hear what you guys say about shadow of the erdtree: it’s hard but it’s not as hard as people are saying. I don’t even have that many scadu blessings and I’ve made most of the bosses look like scrubs. I’ve not even looked into a lot of the backlash, but yeah I mean fromsoft always does this with new games or content. They always find a way to challenge the player in a different way. What did people expect?

And of course Matt immediately backs up what I just said lol.

"The fans" that told you to get good do not represent the majority of Fromsoft enthusiasts, and the ones that tell you to "get good" usually only do so when people complain about how difficult the games are. Also, the people complaining about the expansions difficulty, are different people, they are mostly comprised of people new to the franchise that hopped on with ER. No fromsoft fan was expecting anything less than a ball-buster.

Matt is on point as usual with this series. Though I would agree the sum total of the story in previous souls games is underwhelming, I feel the presense of Martin really added depth and originality to the total story in this game. Where previously I didnt care about the lore, I fiend for it here.
