GapFiller:
not only have the unread LRRMtG subs carried over but so has the title and category apparently
RockPusher: !search for treasure
LRRbot: You find: a Pit Trap!
GapFiller: speaking of not doing things havent had a chance to rewatch the episode and my only memories are that Beej didnt do any stories on Nintendo or Sonic
Juliamon: drone story, AssCreed artbook leak, OW2 lootboxes, uhhhh
Juliamon: oh, SHOVEL
GapFiller: yeh the shovel
TheAinMAP: Title change.
TheAinMAP: Shovel, for digging holes.
GapFiller: okay the common ActiBlizz L still happening even w/ Microsoft up top is ringing a bell but AssCreed Dagron Age and Helldivers... absolutely nothin
GapFiller: sign of age presumably
LurkerSpine: !next
LRRbot: Next scheduled stream: ChillPoint (Paul, Beej and Heather chat about Video Games and Video Game related news!) at Fri 02:00 PM PST (39s ago).
DoodlestheGreat: I understand making fun of what's-his-face with the drone, but... My brother's ex-wife is a therapist in Woodland Hills, and NINE of her patients lost their homes in the Palisades fire.
mtvcdm: Oof
GapFiller: eurhg
DoodlestheGreat: And a dozen people died.
DoodlestheGreat: Right now, the consensus amongst the local population is that the jerk should be taken up in a Super Scooper and dumped in the ocean.
Juliamon: I hope he gets sued for, like, wrongful death
MalFnord: @DoodlestheGreat I was gonna say, he ought to have been fined the full replacement cost of the plane then thrown in the ocean as an offering to the Drowned God.

Thanks for subscribing, RassilonDND! (Today's storm count: 2)
RassilonDND: Are you talking about the dev from treyarch? Yeah that mf took a firefighting plane offline in the middle of a fire
RassilonDND: There should be jail time involved
Juliamon: That's what we're talking about yeah
Juliamon: and how it can be directly tied to at least 10 deaths
RassilonDND: I don't know the theoretical death count, but he should be charged with manslaughter at the least.
GapFiller: !picnic

THERE IS NO NEED TO PANIC, IT'S FINE.

Thanks for subscribing, ramonaviking! (Today's storm count: 3)
DoodlestheGreat: The death toll in the Palisades is 12, and 7 other people are missing. May they just be dumb about checking their voicemail.
RockPusher: Light the Megan signal!
Going_Medium: It's like cow and beef?
Natedogg2: Good ol' rock. Nothing beats rock.
Juliamon: Stone is carved. Rock is just rock.
TheMerricat: "In geological terms, "rock" is a broader term referring to any naturally occurring solid mass of minerals, while "stone" usually refers to a smaller, more manageable piece of rock that has been weathered and shaped by erosion, often used in construction or decorative purposes; essentially, all stones are considered rocks, but not all rocks are considered stones. "
DoodlestheGreat: Rock is what you use when you're about to do some sick guitar licks.
mtvcdm: Tibiaware china
GapFiller: *fossils* checkmate atheists
Coloneljesus: bones of rock and the skin of stones?
ghyllnox: Consider this: Rocking is more legal than stoning. Eh? Eh?
TheAinMAP: Bones can turn into rock thanks to fossilization.
SquareDotCube: but what is the vagina bones of rock?
Going_Medium: What does rock rhyme with Beej?
Juliamon: oh I'm not explaining, I'm just offering a theory
DoodlestheGreat: And I'm just being silly.
GapFiller: Beej yr whole MO is deriving authority to speak from not knowing or caring
GapFiller:
it is the zeitgeist tbf
DoodlestheGreat: @GapFiller Works for Orange Boy.
Gekyouryuu: I totally wasn't expecting to see a website I *definitely* am not familiar with show up on beej's ass creed story
Gekyouryuu: >.>
GapFiller: 4 Carl or For Karl
TheAinMAP:
RockPusher: Huzzah for conquering illness!
mtvcdm: Well-loved
MalFnord: Cave-aged
mtvcdm: Pre-owned news
RockPusher:
Beej did warn us those stories would be used 
GapFiller: the real news is two weeks and not a single story on either Nintendo or Sonic smh
RockPusher: *Clearly*
Juliamon: the Palworld fight was mentioned tbf
GapFiller: Juliamon cant remember was that the show itself or post show (they did talk abt it but when... )
Juliamon: I think it was post-show bc there really wasn't any meat to the story
Juliamon: just "Nintendo has been pelting the patents office"
DoodlestheGreat: They pulled some of it out of the plane's wing.
RockPusher: Going from an unspecified dumbass to a specified dumbass
GapFiller: Juliamon imagining that as a Nintendo rep literally chucking bushels full of legal notices at the actual Patent Office building
Juliamon: maybe they did, I don't know how patent filing works
niccus: from asshole in question to unquestioned asshole
GapFiller: who was it that recently said "people need to stop literally recording themselves doing crime"
GapFiller:
mightve been Beej actually
RockPusher: Flying a drone in *restricted* airspace
RubikDarkwill: DJI stopped enforcing those fences
RockPusher: I don't think it can account for temporary restrictions
RockPusher: I assume it is just the fixed aerodrome list
ButterBall000: And this is why we can't have flying cars
raulghoulia: there's nothing in the rules that says a drone can't play football
Geldaran: i think the service said to the LA community.
BusTed: tru
MalFnord: Clearing out the wreckage that he helped cause by fucking up the plane.
DoodlestheGreat: Heather droppin' truthbombs like a Super Scooper.
CaptainSpam: Juneuary.
RockPusher: Graham is busy and time is hard
raulghoulia: it's been a long year
CaptainSpam: Look, I'm still telling people it's Febtober.
GapFiller: heat of the moment Beej dont worry abt it
GapFiller: no pun intended
Mr_Dirty: Yet you remember you forgot
Programmerman1: I thought it was still March of 2020
RockPusher:
ADR but with Heather doing the VO
GapFiller: RockPusher ohhh Beej w/ Heathers voice
DoodlestheGreat: January, June... L.A.'s just a tinderbox 75% of the year.
ButterBall000: Were you paying attention audience? There'll be a test
Laserbeaks_Fury: this is like the 58th March of 2020, June was *so* long ago
GapFiller: Graham w/ Heathers voice mb
RockPusher: ooh ya ya
Laserbeaks_Fury: OH LA LA
DoodlestheGreat: And the other 25% are like today, mudpie time.
Coloneljesus: oh man I miss Craig's show
niccus: <tiktok voice> January
Mr_Dirty: All future ADR should be in French so it blends in
Laserbeaks_Fury: Lean in to it
GapFiller: who doesnt love a good mismatched voice
Programmerman1: like that simpsons super bowl episode
GapFiller: lesson here is clearly nxt CP+ everyone swaps voices
Programmerman1: napstravaganza!
Invitare: Beej had 3 hours of sleep once and he's been using that as an excuse ever since
raulghoulia: beej is still in sleep debt
RockPusher: The PH *Im*balance
Coloneljesus: he has an excuse for today so just blame everything on him
wilco96: just because he had another 4 hours after his 3 hours of sleep, doesn't mean he didn't have 3 hours of sleep
Akaiatana: He's on 3 hours of sleep, also on 4-5
gibbousm: Rule 1) Support Heather. Rule 2) Support Paul Rule 3) Support Beej
mtvcdm: !addquote (Heather) [now] Chat, I don't want to see you defending Beej.
LRRbot: New quote #9257: "Chat, I don't want to see you defending Beej." —Heather [2025-02-14]
RockPusher: 120%!
Juliamon: the moment that story popped into my feed I knew it was gonna be a Beej story
Coloneljesus: instead of transcribing it in minecraft?
Programmerman1: DMCA working as intended! you only have to take it down when you're asked to
GapFiller: never forget for a long time Pornhub was a HUGE priacy hub
GapFiller: as Paul has just noted
TehAmelie: More Sleep™!
Laserbeaks_Fury: The only other option would be to check *every* porn site for copy rite materials and what company wants to do that on a regluar basis
Programmerman1: yeah that screenshot screamed 2001
ButterBall000: White typeface on a white background
GapFiller: turns out porn sites are not only at the tech vanguard theyre also key to archiving tech history
Laserbeaks_Fury: Is this like an art book you get in a "Deluxe Edition"
mtvcdm: They want the art book sold before people know if they actually like the game or not
RockPusher: Assassin's Creed: The Movie: The Game
TheAwkes: Spaceballs the Flamethrower has been a joke for a long time, and it still works.
TehAmelie: ha, remember when we said porn sites electing not to use crypto was proof that the technology had no real application?
Spacecarl: I imagine you get less sold if you wait too long too. While people are peak excited
Laserbeaks_Fury: When would you sell an "Art of Concord" book?
GapFiller:
TheMerricat:
You all like this not only does the art book come in a special version of the game. There is a deluxe version of the art book you can buy. 
mtvcdm: An art book sold later on only really works if people have already established the game is popular and successful, and even then you've only got so long.
Mai_Andra: Yeah, Ubisoft wants the big AssCreed games to last for a year of more.
Mai_Andra: (The last one had 3 years of DLC, but there were Circumstances in 2020...)
Coloneljesus: 100% agree with you, Paul
ButterBall000: New Game-
Thefluffiestguineapig: That sounds like it would suck
Coloneljesus: it does!
SocraticMethod: The Vampire perk trivilized the combat in SR3
Mai_Andra: They need to have a "bonus unlocked after completing a certain part of the story" for these things. (some do)
mtvcdm: Oh, right, like that one time we played GTA5 on stream and they had a blimp on offer as a preorder bonus the crew had.
mtvcdm: And the James fell out of the blimp.
TheAwkes: I don't know any of them personally, but there are people out there who just want the fully unlocked sandbox.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Mai_Andra They ruined them when they fucked the French Revolution one up so royally (hehe, jokes!) that it didn't even really run so they gave up on one of the things everyone liked, the cinematic aspect
RubikDarkwill: One of the things they give you is the strongest Persona in the game
duallain: They could at least have the box of stuff have a little note about it. Explain what you get if you click the button
RubikDarkwill: Because they were collabs
Thefluffiestguineapig: @TheAwkes Depends on the game, forget which stream but a LRRstream recently mentioned Just Cause and those games having the sandbox entirely unlocked has no downside, the AssCreed games with a story mode there IS a downside
Thefluffiestguineapig: Sorry, I used to be a big fan of the AssCreed games, then they messed up, I am also interested in Shadows, but extreeeeemely hesitantly
RockPusher:
Paul prefers the stabbing over the art 
Mai_Andra: This is the first time that I'm actually "current" on Assassin's Creed when they're releasing a new one.
Thefluffiestguineapig: The one in London
Laserbeaks_Fury: sound slike Syndicate
Mai_Andra: Syndicate had twin characters.
Mai_Andra:
The last "real" Assassin's Creed game. 
Invitare: a sister? Wait did Ubisoft manage to model a female character??? They said it couldn't be done!
Mai_Andra: (the next one changed to modern "open world" and "action" controls)
Laserbeaks_Fury: I think we might have passed the "present" of AC?
Laserbeaks_Fury: Or have they kept up
Thefluffiestguineapig: 2, Brotherhood
Thefluffiestguineapig: Yes, he's drunk and escaping from an angry dad
ButterBall000: Yeah
Mai_Andra: The modern story hasn't really kept up... AC3 was current when it released in 2012.
Thefluffiestguineapig: It's so effective
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Mai_Andra The American Revolution one?
ButterBall000: It was originally meant to show off the landscape of the newgen graphics
SocraticMethod: @Laserbeaks_Fury They have kept up, usually the "modern" time is at the release date post AC3
SocraticMethod: AC1-3 is 2012 because *reasons*
Thefluffiestguineapig: @SocraticMethod Because Desmond is dead and something or whatever bla bla no idea
PharaohBender27: Or your expectations
ButterBall000: @SocraticMethod I thought it was for the 2012 apocalypse
kusinohki: meows
SocraticMethod: EA play had a time-limited demo. If they count that in, it would distort
SocraticMethod: @ButterBall000 Shh, spoilers :V
Thefluffiestguineapig: Also the argument for things being this expensive of "oh the poor companies need to make money" is BS, it's only if the companies need to make more money than the GDP of most countries
Thefluffiestguineapig: @kusinohki Brrp!
Laserbeaks_Fury: IF their "expectations" were realistic, would they have decided to *not* make the game?
Laserbeaks_Fury: *sigh*
Mr_Dirty: Yeah pretty sure EA has killed any hope I had for mass effect even though I liked veilguard
Thefluffiestguineapig: THEY'RE locked in on
Thefluffiestguineapig: WE don't want that necessarily
SocraticMethod: I think it's also not good that everyone seems to be reading "engagements" as "sold units." Especially the polygon article that was comparing it to metaphor
Laserbeaks_Fury: The Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer mode was *amazingly* fun
Geldaran: mass effect 3.
Thefluffiestguineapig: The story of veilguard seems pretty cool
Mr_Dirty: Just add lootboxes
Geldaran: @Laserbeaks_Fury beat me too it.
duallain: pay to mission
mtvcdm: I mentioned this in the mod slack, but... if you're doing a live service game, live service games are time sucks. People can only play so many. Making a live-service game inherently, by definition, means you're trying to be a Fortnite killer... and you're not.
Mai_Andra: not really seeking that. largely because companies keep shutting down games before I have a chance to play them. (sometimes not even 1 year after release...)
SquareDotCube: follow Chinese Zodiac rules
161 raiders from SergeYager have joined!
Spacecarl: Oh how I miss playing a Krogan Vanguard in ME3 multiplayer.

Mai_Andra: Mass Effect 3 multiplayer was fun.
Thefluffiestguineapig: Welcome brew crew!
Invitare: wait no Paul
Invitare: ME3MP was beloved
Geldaran: the only part i disliked about that was the multiplayer added resources to your galactic sucess pool.
Spacecarl: It was so good
g0blinslide: Nah, it was fun as hell. The multiplayer was great.
incslayer: @ExachixKitsune its nice to see that we still share that one braincell
niccus: ME3MP was a cult favorite
Laserbeaks_Fury: Oh yeah, I played *so* much Multiplayer, all my new games I would start at 100% readiness
Invitare: Cam speaks positively of it too
mtvcdm: @Thefluffiestguineapig Yeah, like, there's like five or so big kahunas and you gotta go displace one of them.
Geldaran: the multiplayer was fine, but i didn't like that they "required" it.
ExachixKitsune:
@incslayer I'm going to sleep you can use it for a bit 
SocraticMethod: ME3 multiplayer was excellent. It's the part that that it was used to be necessary for SP portion that people disliked
incslayer: @ExachixKitsune actually im also going to bed
accountmadeforants: Mass Effect 3's multiplayer was really fun, because you could change damage and rewards (including the microtransaction currency) by editing an INI file.
g0blinslide: everything but the ending of ME3 was well regarded. it was a mode like Gears of wars alternate mode or whatever, endless waves of enemies
Spacecarl: I think initially there were some people not happy that it was incentivized to play multiplayer for the war readiness thing
TehAmelie: you could make getting the good ending easier with multiplayer
ButterBall000: Multiplayer afftected the story
Wiliart: Yeah, had to play multiplayer to get a better singleplayer ending.
SocraticMethod: It was *necessary.* You counldn't get 100% without it
Invitare: the Multiplayer in ME3, DAI and MEA, which were all the same sort of thing, were all good
SocraticMethod: Until it was rebalanced to not require
TehAmelie: at least by the time i played it was patched so you didn't need it
ludusprime: you could grind points to get and ending you'd otherwise need to make crucial story decisions to get
Spacecarl: I think if you came in to the game with certain bonuses from the first two games you could skip it maybe?
Spacecarl: But man it was actually quite fun. You could play as the various aliens in the multiplayer with very cool stuff
Mr_Dirty: I mean he is an ai in a suit
Mai_Andra:
Assassin's Creed is a "shared world" - shared across games. 
Decaped: Helldivers milks the barest minimum of "shared world" features to great effect.
accountmadeforants: "I meant to spout some words, I didn't mean for them to *mean* anything"
ButterBall000: Business vs Art
SocraticMethod: @Spacecarl *kshhht* I AM A BIOTIC GOD
Laserbeaks_Fury: It does feel like they personally wanted this feature and decided to lean on that as a reason the game underperformed
GapFiller: in faced w/ investors yr really do havta fake it till making it
Spacecarl: @socraticmethod yeah that one, Krogan Vanguard, Turian soldier. Mmmmm
saiarcot895: 100% global penetration, minimum
MalFnord: Madden or FIFA, one of the two
TehAmelie: Andromeda has been discounted from the "main series" huh
Spacecarl: It sounds like it's fairly early on still. Especially if they don't need the full studio staff
Mr_Dirty: Beej that was mass effect 2
mtvcdm: At this point I'm holding out until I actually see it released as opposed to cancelled
Laserbeaks_Fury: I mean, Shepard dies once, and it didn't take.
SquareDotCube: they want more exploring the galaxy and scanning planets
Juliamon: ""Loaned""
Mai_Andra: contracted? like a disease?
Spacecarl: I do not envy their job to figure out where to have the story go from the end of 3
mtvcdm: An individual component of this has a theoretical basis in logic
RockPusher:
*be seconded to role B* *role A is made redundant* *secondment to role B ends* 
Juliamon: It's a good idea... as long as you can return to where you WERE afterward
Spacecarl: See that makes sense... If the location shift isn't bad and if you can go back eventually...
SocraticMethod: @Spacecarl I guess they could take the most boring option and continue from high readiness Destroy. Maybe Retcon EDI death because she was popular
Thefluffiestguineapig: Or having a team purchased then immediately put on things they have no expertise in
Spacecarl: @socraticmethod that's my bet, say that some of that the kid said was a lie
TehAmelie: ME3 ends with Shepard deciding the fundamental course of life in the galaxy, it would be fun if they make three different games based on that
Laserbeaks_Fury: Doesn't count as firing if you moved then and quietly eliminated the role
TehAmelie: (but they won't)
Thefluffiestguineapig: Or a fucking live service game
Mr_Dirty: It feels bad to put all my bioware hopes on spiders, but all the recent news from ea about bioware feels bad.
SocraticMethod:
@Spacecarl My worst fear would be that they would try to make game *for the fans* and pick Indoctrination Theory ending of all things 
Laserbeaks_Fury: They're not being fried, they're just going to a stupid upstate
Laserbeaks_Fury: *studio
silenceaux: Got real "I don't want to fire them, YOU do it" vibes
GapFiller: the typo still kinda works in context
Spacecarl: @socraticmethod oh geeze yeah. It's a nearly impossible line to walk. Every option has downsides. I wouldn't want that responsibility
Spacecarl: They did say that this is the first time they have only had one game in development in ages
Mr_Dirty: mass effect 4 may become the next bloodlines 2
SocraticMethod: From what I've seen ME4 is in pre-production because Veilguard was "all hands on deck" situation. It'll take a while to spin up
GapFiller: eyyy Patchs
Sethalidos: Rock and Stone
SocraticMethod: I am a 'diver and I'm digging a hole, diggy diggy hole, diggy diggy hole.
GapFiller: !hole
LRRbot: The Hole Story, with Nigel Fitzgerald Brouwer
Spacecarl: Heh, the shovels may be slightly overshadowed by the current black hole situation currently happening in that game I heard about
gnyrinn: Why is that a LRRbot command?
GapFiller:
neu hedcanon burying bodeis for Heather is the REAL reason James is always digging holes
Sethalidos: why not?
Juliamon: gnyrinn because of Holes
GapFiller: gnyrinn Do You Ever Just Think About Holes?
mtvcdm: Yeah. Why else would you keep James around if not to dig holes for Heather.
Sethalidos: !findquote holes
LRRbot: Quote #9123: "I've never met a problem that couldn't be holed." —Serge [2024-10-22]
Spacecarl: It just destroyed a planet they had been defending a bunch apparently
Laserbeaks_Fury: Space Soldiers from Super Earth -> "Fighting Bugs On an Alien Planet" <- Space Dwarves Mining Ore
gnyrinn: @Juliamon I understand now completely -
noSmokeFire: it's only a meta narrative if it's posted on facebook
LordZarano: Dark energy is 68% of the mass of the universe (IRL)
GapFiller: just the once tho
SocraticMethod: @gnyrinn "Do you ever think about Holes [2003 film by Andrew Davis]?" was a long running bit a while ago
margieargie:
Need a "hold up a sign saying 'Uh-oh'" emote then 
Laserbeaks_Fury: "Yikes!"
Coloneljesus: gas weapons? as in farts?
Juliamon: gnyrinn because Adam has never seen the film, but occasionally would ask "Do you ever thinking about Holes?" and there was even a post-it about it
Laserbeaks_Fury: It's nothing special. Sometimes a spade is just a spade.
AnimeKitty: Love that Yogscast song
Mai_Andra: "It's a living." <falls into a pit>
Juliamon: I had one of those excavator toys as a kid, and it was my favourite thing... until ants nested in it
Sethalidos: Wind Rose did a metal version]
noSmokeFire: Yogscast hut also Wind Roses
Lord_Hosk: In Star Wars Galaxies the players in game could impact the world by joining the Rebels or the Imperials. and take cities to where it would be more expensive to travel there if you were a member of the other faction, and NPC guards did more damage to you. But like 80% of the player base was Rebels so every city was rebel minutes after every monthly server reset.
AnimeKitty: @Juliamon As a hater of ants I would scream if I found that as a child
BusTed: oho
Juliamon: AnimeKitty Oh I definitely did
Juliamon: Dad cleaned it out but I never touched it again anyway
AnimeKitty: VAlid
TheAwkes: The Shovel Knight of 3D games?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Sethalidos Of Diggy Diggy Hole?
accountmadeforants: @Juliamon Dang, cool toy tho
Alex_Frostfire: Point of order, the rival corporation and its robots were added in season 1 (2021).
KBKarma: Super Meat Boy had a whole bunch of those as well.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @SocraticMethod Oh yeah, that music video slaps very hard
AnimeKitty: The Wind Rose version is superior IMO
KBKarma: Which confused me when I unlocked Jill from Mighty Jill Off, which I'd never heard of.
g0blinslide: Balatro has so many card sleeves that are from other games, it's cool
LiveLittlebird subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 72 months!

BusTed:
KBKarma: Oh, absolutely.
SocraticMethod: Balatro crossovers were worth it just so we could get Ben Starr as Jimbo
KBKarma: It's cool to see games or content creators or whatever that you like collaborating.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @AnimeKitty Eh, for me it depends, I have the Wind Rose version on some playlists and the other on my kennel cleaning playlist because the Wind Rose one will start any hounds in the kennels up immediately
KBKarma: So what, Shovel Knight crossover?
noSmokeFire: every time someone famous I follow gets into Magic or fundraising I start a countdown in my head for them showing up at a PPR or DB
EmmaPartlow: @SocraticMethod Banana.
LordZarano: Even Minecraft has splash screens of like "Also try Super Meat Boy!" "Also try VVVVVV!" ..."Braid!" .."Terraria!"
AnimeKitty: @Thefluffiestguineapig That's totally valid. I can see that happening
KBKarma: Super Meat Boy's crossovers were fascinating, because the characters in question had their own special abilities.
Lord_Hosk: as Thor of Pirate software calls it "Time To D"
control_rig: TTD: Time To Dick
accountmadeforants: If people start drawing penises they'd just add a lore explanation
SocraticMethod: Pfft
Laserbeaks_Fury: the 0toPenis for RDR2 was *very* short

Sethalidos: my bro in law plays Helldivers 2 so def not
GapFiller:
mtvcdm: LOOT BOXES. ARE. BACK.
DaxStrife:
Everyone I know who plays Helldivers plays on very high difficulties; they don't have time to draw anything. 
RockPusher: Loot boxes are back! In Battle Pass form!
Syntheticuh: did ya'll do a bit on how they tried to spin them announcing rates as a kindness instead of FOLLOWING THE LAW
CaptainSpam: I mentioned this in the Discord, but, given I don't actually play OW2, I was not aware OW2 didn't have lootboxes to begin with.
mtvcdm: Oh boy, it's the McRib of gambling
Laserbeaks_Fury: Clearly its a bit
Alex_Frostfire: "Now you have an overwhelming chance to not get anything you want!"
SocraticMethod: Aaron Keller is the current lead of Overwatch 2
CaptainSpam: But with McRibs, you get... McRibs. Not a chance to get a single french fry.
Laserbeaks_Fury: No, what happens you cut to Staler and Waldorf for a "funny quip"
SocraticMethod: Probably should have brought back Jeff Kaplan for the announcement
ButterBall000: It can't be that much more expensive to make a specific US Lootbox version, right?
SocraticMethod: Battle passes are more profitable anyway
accountmadeforants: I can't wait till grocery stores add battle passes
SocraticMethod: What would that system be called anyway. Lootpass? Battlebox?
Alex_Frostfire: I mean, isn't MTGA on a battle pass system that rewards loot boxes (booster packs)?
CaptainSpam: What I was slightly both impressed and worried about with Splatoon 3 was the introduction of the "seasonal catalog" system, which is functionally a Battle Pass... but it's free, everybody gets one, and there's no microtransaction system whatsoever.
Mr_Dirty: i would assume this is to test the water then have both in the store
Syntheticuh: @accountmadeforants 1 out of 50 boxes has a dozen eggs, 45 boxes has beans and rice, and 4 have food for a pet you don't have
Izandai: Someone in the comments of the video said that this change is purely positive. You can't actually buy the lootboxes, and they replaced very low-value rewards on the battlepass. They also said this wasn't the first time y'all had negatively reported on a good change to OW2, so, I dunno. I don't play it. Just thought I'd mention.
accountmadeforants: @Syntheticuh Oh, grocery stores here already functionally have loot boxes. (You can buy an extremely cheap box of random stuff that's about to expire.)

noSmokeFire: counterpoint: It's a positive change _for now_
GapFiller: much like anything related to crypto and blockchains
GapFiller: that well has been too thoroughly poisoned
Syntheticuh: honestly, i dont hate the idea of a cheaper box of just whatever is close to expiring but this is more just of a conceptual thing and idk how it actually works in practice
Thefluffiestguineapig: @accountmadeforants I mean, if I get to decide which grocery store I get it from and I can go to any of them, I'll just go to either the local Japanese or Chinese grocery store and get some good stuff
accountmadeforants: @Thefluffiestguineapig Likewise, there's also a Turkish grocery store around the corner from me which is great.
Laserbeaks_Fury: You mean like offering a video game service for like $1 so everyone adopts it, and then slowly increasing the cost over time?
accountmadeforants: *I* don't buy horse armour all the time, I still think it's dumb.
DaxStrife: Ah, good ol' bad ol' honse amor.
AshBurnem: Mei is bae.
Izandai: My understanding was that Mei was a commonly reviled hero due to being annoying to play against, so I didn't even question it.
Alex_Frostfire: I seem to recall Mei making people salty in OW1, so as an outsider I think the pick was okay.
Laserbeaks_Fury: "Well Played"
SquareDotCube: I think Hanzo is the least liked because of who tends to play him
Thefluffiestguineapig: @SquareDotCube That's not Hanzo's fault
BlueChloroplast: Probably just the logo spray
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Thefluffiestguineapig Also as an Outsider
LordZarano: 40 minutes? Wow he must be speeding up!
Izandai: It's just a universal standard for timing.
LurkerSpine: ^
Juliamon: Going by the in-game clock is common for speedruns
Juliamon: It's easier to screenshot to prove the time
Izandai: And the game tells you how fast you won the fight down to the frame, so it's very precise.
Izandai: (except for Mike Tyson because the game goes to credits, so you have to retime it yourself for that level of precision)
SquareDotCube: yeah the in-game clock is rather fast, it probably has to do with the NES not having a method for an exact second
Laserbeaks_Fury: Well, you have to getthat RNG, and *also* be playig well that run
mtvcdm: Wow
GapFiller:
accountmadeforants: "Damn, I was mere repeated perfect execution away from the pinnacle of human achievement for this game"
Thefluffiestguineapig:
LurkerSpine:
Highly recommend watching summoning salt's video on punch out
SocraticMethod: Took a while to find a name of the game, but speedrun of Perfect Dark are borderline unwatchable because it's possible to cheat the image timer with spamming opening menu
Thefluffiestguineapig: "Look at how sweet this hard thing is!" "I did the hard thing and it was hard!"
DoodlestheGreat: People I've watched playing it are having fun.
CypherRaze: I've been having a blast with Avowed
TehAmelie: i'll never be able to play it cause i'm just gonna be thinking about Unavowed the whole time
Laserbeaks_Fury: I don't think I will even prefer "spectacular" over 60fps
GapFiller: owning the jank
Laserbeaks_Fury: That's the sign over the front door to Bethesada's studio
Juliamon: The jank is part of the charm
GapFiller: "its really buggy" "We Are So Back"
Sarah_Serinde: The last game they played on W+P was 90% jank and it was great
Thefluffiestguineapig: Yeah, that basically is the game
BlasterKyubey210: Any games that are good with Irl
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Sarah_Serinde Absolutely, that game was fantabulous
BlasterKyubey210: oR A SENSE of reality
BlueChloroplast: If its too balanced there is less room for creatively combining things
BlasterKyubey210: Because I feel angry at Starfield
BlasterKyubey210: out of sadness
jacqui_lantern234:
hey ya heccin nerds whomst i love beyond measure 
BlasterKyubey210: Like BANDITS ARE SUPERIOR THEN HEROES type of set ting
Thefluffiestguineapig: @BlueChloroplast Like Besiege
BlasterKyubey210: Because I just feel wondering
accountmadeforants: @Sarah_Serinde Sebil Engineering is beauty, it is grace, it lets you manipulate vertices to shift polygon face
BlasterKyubey210: So yea...
CypherRaze: yeah I've been jamming it
Mr_Dirty: pay to bug test
BlasterKyubey210: Kinda wondering because I just feel kinda upset at the lack of games with the feel i want
BlasterKyubey210: Like SKYRIM with guns that defeat evil magic
CypherRaze: it feels very much like a Skyrim-lite type game.
BlasterKyubey210: or something
Thefluffiestguineapig: @accountmadeforants To shift all polygon to your face
Izandai: ????????????????????????
BlasterKyubey210: So yea...
Izandai: No wait what about Hollow Knight and chocolate cake?
mtvcdm: Well now that you've said it
BlasterKyubey210: Maybe I just want to talk to soemone that knows what games exist for magicless fantasy
ImmortalLen: What cake?!?!
Juliamon: Cake?
Thefluffiestguineapig: ?????????????????????????
BlasterKyubey210: Monster Hunter sidegame with a sense of horror
mtvcdm: Did State of Play have cake?
BlasterKyubey210: would be nice to see but
Thefluffiestguineapig: Hollow Knight and Chocolate Cake?
BlasterKyubey210: I just want a Kaiju film feel to Wilds
LurkerSpine: 27th I think
BlasterKyubey210: Like pull out the mech armor for some beasts
gibbousm: it was so many Action RPGs with a Dark Fantasy aesthetic
CypherRaze: MH Wilds releases the 27th
NorthstarTex: wilds is in beta rn
NorthstarTex: or was
gualdhar: Monster Hunter games have 3-5 free content packs after release, an an expansion on top of it
SocraticMethod: Delta, yeah
BlasterKyubey210: @gibbousm Yea... just feeling sad somewhere for the lack of mech games
LordZarano: The game about shooting things to rebuild the world looked neat
BlasterKyubey210: or the lack of high tech sci-fi feel
SocraticMethod: MGS 3 Remaster
CypherRaze: It's a Delta
mtvcdm: Sonic got a new racing game for his 30th anniversary
Thefluffiestguineapig: Snake Eater is a Remaster
Thefluffiestguineapig: I think
RubikDarkwill: MGSD:SE
gualdhar: MGS3 remaster is called Delta, yeah
BlasterKyubey210: Snake Eater Substance edition
niccus: sneater...
BlasterKyubey210: Basically in Substance, there's been bonus games based on the engine
BlasterKyubey210: Ape Escape and Bomberman are there in Delta so
BlasterKyubey210: not all is lost
Decaped: Majima the Kniver
jacqui_lantern234: Ichiban
BlasterKyubey210: Basically the LIke a Dragon adventure is more water fun
jacqui_lantern234: cause he's #1
jacqui_lantern234:
i wish i was joking 
BlasterKyubey210: I mean the name punchline is there
SocraticMethod: Streets of Rage thing
BlasterKyubey210: and Infinite Wealth, Ichiban's wateryadventures are at it again
e_bloc: exclusively mahjong games
BlasterKyubey210: I wonder
jacqui_lantern234:
honestly, i genuinely want this, too
BlasterKyubey210: Any games that fit the want like Monster Hunter iwth a mech focused theme
BlasterKyubey210: Because...
BlasterKyubey210: State of Play has my goat grabbed sadly
Laserbeaks_Fury: Like Horizon?
BlasterKyubey210: Yea like Horizon is the soul, and ELDENRING IS SOULLESS FOR HTE LACK OF GUNS and muskets
BlueChloroplast: I mean Yakuza does have lots of mini game genre changes
BlasterKyubey210: Not even modern day guns, just give me a Musket in Nightreign and I'll be fine
BlasterKyubey210: Just feel sad the fact God Eater is dead
BlasterKyubey210: as much as Freedom Wars and no game is like it since feels bad
RatherLargeToad: gave my ratchet and clank vibes
Izandai: @BlasterKyubey210 What the hell are you on about?
Laserbeaks_Fury: I've maintained they could do a MH Horizon spin off that's focused more on the whole hunting, gathering, and making armor and weapons
BlasterKyubey210: @Izandai That I just want a gun-focused Souls game but
gibbousm: I've heard the lead racer gets to choose for Lap 2
ProcyonFlynn: ^
mtvcdm: Oh, the Outrun mechanic
BlasterKyubey210: @Laserbeaks_Fury Yea sadly seems nto quite there at all, with the closure for the unnamed MMO project...
Kentosaurus: Sonic is already fast. Why does he need a car?
mtvcdm: Leader picks the next leg
RockPusher: An interplanar race of sorts…
ImmortalLen: BEEJ!
silenceaux: Oh, the air boards are back
Izandai: @BlasterKyubey210 Okay? Super weird to get mad at Elden Ring for not being that.
Decaped: THe previous Sonic racing game definitely was doing more interesting things than Mario Kart
BlasterKyubey210: @Izandai I mean I just feel mad at the lack of gun-based Souls like at all
RockPusher:
Aetherdrift the Hedgehog
cmdrud87: !next
LRRbot: Next scheduled stream: Friday Night Paper Fight (The LRR crew plays Magic the Gathering! Tonight on the show we're playing Commander, with our very own Unknown Event cards! Game: Magic: The Gathering) at Fri 05:00 PM PST (1:15 from now).
Lord_Hosk: Playing this multi-player and everyone ends up on different worlds finishing different races at different times. So the pro's all want to get just that one track and will skip other tracks
BlasterKyubey210: Yea, the crossworld is weird but who knows, the release date is there
BlasterKyubey210: Still a case of keep guessing
Mr_Dirty: We already have Garfield kart at home
Izandai: @BlasterKyubey210 That also... Like, I get having a specific desire, it's good to want things, but being mad that no one has catered to your specific interests yet is weird.
BlasterKyubey210: Maybe practice on sections is there
erloas subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 47 months!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, erloas! (Today's storm count: 7)
mtvcdm: It's almost certainly 'first place chooses where everyone goes'
BlasterKyubey210: @Izandai Yea... emptyness and disappointment can hurt and still carry it...
Laserbeaks_Fury: Two roads diverged in a yellow Ring, And sorry I could not travel both...
BlasterKyubey210: @mtvcdm I'd not be surprized if there'sa more 'Classic mode' or Time Trials are practicing particular parts
Laserbeaks_Fury: You can also use the divergent track as catch up
Laserbeaks_Fury: Like one track is a little shorter, but you can only choose it if your behind
mtvcdm: I can't see them splitting the grid like that. People are going to very quickly determine which tracks can be covered faster than the others and they WILL weaponize that information.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Laserbeaks_Fury And be one traveler from I stood
e_bloc: dude gets tired
Laserbeaks_Fury: Sonic,'s not old enough to drive
Izandai: Sonic racing games should have everyone in cars but Sonic and Shadow just running.
silenceaux: The hover board implies athleticism that the vehicle does not
SAJewers: i mean, in sonic r they had sonic actually running
Thefluffiestguineapig: the 90's vibe fits way more with hoverboard
Thefluffiestguineapig: Pedal car is my headcanon
Lord_Hosk: There was that Matt Pat game theory where he broke down Sonics speed and he wasn't going that fast... If I remember it was a slow jog speed.
BlasterKyubey210: I don't know if there's any games where well
BlasterKyubey210: Permadeath is the only mode
BlasterKyubey210: but still want a MMORPG with a permadeath only
silenceaux: Aqua Kingdom Hearts??
BlasterKyubey210: even if no one else is interested
BlasterKyubey210: Kingdom Hearts where you only get 1 HP, no weapons
BlasterKyubey210: just you running from Heartless would be nice
BlasterKyubey210: or avoid getting arrested by TMPD
BlasterKyubey210: But does anyone know any game that is close to the feel of say appreicating reality for it's flaws
Decaped: Ok, that dude's a chatbot.
DoodlestheGreat: Are they a cheese danish?
silenceaux: bit of a character swap
RatherLargeToad: as you do
Thefluffiestguineapig: Yeah, that's very Norse mythology coded
BlasterKyubey210: On Overwatch and similar games
Thefluffiestguineapig: Git gud scrubs
BlasterKyubey210: Any game that is close to the Valoratn format of one life ever?
Mai_Andra: or that one "Unknown" game that was apparently canceled, when nobody had actually heard of it before...
BlasterKyubey210: @Mai_Andra Think Unknwon as a franchise was shut down sadly
BusTed: wookiee bowcaster
DeM0nFiRe: "pulls in nearby allies" that's got major troll potential lol
Thefluffiestguineapig: Right, you knock them down to tie them up
KeytarCat: I'd let her choke me out
Thefluffiestguineapig: He's just a water bender
AFamiliarCalledEl: It's an option select - you catch them, and then you can explode them later if you want
RatherLargeToad: he uses fire, naturally
DaxStrife: Does Aqua just die going up against Mei's frost gun?
NorthstarTex: so...water bending
BlasterKyubey210: @Thefluffiestguineapig A water Tribe Na'vi is oh well
Laserbeaks_Fury: Blitzball's biggest star'
BlasterKyubey210: But codename is there
Izandai: What's his diversity index score?
accountmadeforants: "Your silhouette has DPS vibes"
RatherLargeToad: small = not a tank, I guess
Thefluffiestguineapig: I'm sorry??????????
Thefluffiestguineapig: 44?
CaptainSpam: And people whine about the amount of *weapons* in TF2...
GapFiller:
do any of The Crew (or anyone Crew adjacent) still play Overwatch
MalFnord: Wait there's HOW many heroes in OW2?
Laserbeaks_Fury: OW1 had what, 21?
mtvcdm: And now watch, Hanzo's the only one they'll put in Smash
bytecaster: League did a champion a month thing for a while
bytecaster: So that added a lot
Thefluffiestguineapig: League is a billion
AFamiliarCalledEl: Oh god, league is probably 150-160
accountmadeforants:
Frankly, every hero/class above TF2's 9 is a mistake 
Laserbeaks_Fury: Rammus4Ever
GapFiller:
how many of those Get On The Point shirts are left
GapFiller: or the Bullet Sponge shirts for that matter
DoodlestheGreat: Play those LOL characters and make those tryhards saltier than the ocean.
bytecaster: I think most Overwatch players these days really marvel at all the its rivals
mtvcdm: Please reduce Beej's inventory
BlasterKyubey210: @bytecaster Maybe, but... I just wnat Marvel Rivals with one life mode
BlasterKyubey210: My interst in Hero shooters is high risk, one life only modes but
BlasterKyubey210: Any games iwth that style
Laserbeaks_Fury: Just in time for New Years....ohhh
Izandai:
Every day i wish that I could've played Overwatch while it was The Thing. 
Thefluffiestguineapig: Oh man, magical girl skin for the manliest possible character please?
GapFiller: thinking abt it the mystery is that they havent done any Mahou Shoujo outfits until now
GapFiller: (maybe they have idk)
accountmadeforants:
@BlasterKyubey210 TF2 has had the Arena mode since 2008 
RatherLargeToad: That’s a Precure
BlasterKyubey210: @accountmadeforants Sadly, I thought TF2 being too many bots makes me feel uninterested over it...
CypherRaze: looks like sailor moon
BlasterKyubey210: Like I want the main mode to be 1 Life only
bytecaster: Are the doing a Madoka too?
BlasterKyubey210: So a want for Marvel Rivals, a Limited Time Mode that is pure Valorant style
Laserbeaks_Fury: I think that was Kiriko?
GapFiller: it figures theres at least one weeb somewhere on the Blizzard payroll
accountmadeforants: Meduka, become meguca
Thefluffiestguineapig: if they don't have these for the male characters, I vote we riot. Men and NB's can have adorable mascots too damnit!!!
Izandai: @BlasterKyubey210 Please stop trying to make everyone talk about the thing you want to talk about.
bytecaster: I'm already great at ignoring messages send to me, especially those I really should reply to!
Decaped: Blizzard is definitely the weebiest big game studio
BlasterKyubey210: @Izandai Sorry, just trying to talk about somthing about that style of game
BlasterKyubey210: I just feel like wanting to talk wtih that style of game since on that road
mtvcdm: !discord
LRRbot:
LRR has an official Discord server! And you don't even need to be subbed or anything! You can join here: https://discord.gg/lrr
Izandai: Okay but that's not what anyone else here is talking about.
RubikDarkwill: You get the message, but you won't be *notified* about it
Izandai: IIRC, if you try to friend someone who's blocked you, you get an error message, and if you try to message someone who blocked you, you don't see anyone, whereas they don't get notified of the message.
Izandai: *see anything
Mr_Dirty: sounds like a spam folder
Kentosaurus: amateurs, I've been ignoring people for years
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Mr_Dirty Beat me to it
KaleidoscopeMind: just ignore discord
GapFiller:
jacqui_lantern234:
watch one of those people be Heather 
AshBurnem: Hey, chat. Don't be a person Beej wants to ignore.
Mai_Andra: Beej supplies load-bearing memes
Thefluffiestguineapig: @jacqui_lantern234 Dude, if Beej ignored Heather and he's still alive we need to learn his skills
SquareDotCube: tbf Beej does stay in the memes/shitposts channels
mtvcdm: See, chat, if you're not in the LRR Discord, why not join? Beej probably hasn't blocked you.
RockPusher: Beej fulfilling an important public service in meme distribution
jacqui_lantern234:
@AshBurnem i dont think im a person Beej wants to ignore, but im a person he SHOULD
bytecaster: Meme distributors are an important part of the ecosystem
jacqui_lantern234: @Thefluffiestguineapig same! also, im not a dude
Laserbeaks_Fury: To be fair, adding new characters mid season too
silenceaux: So, ranking deflation...?
RatherLargeToad: that’s kind of how MTG Arena does it
bytecaster: 6 weeks seems short
jacqui_lantern234:
a season is 1/4 of the year. thats how the earths rotation works
bytecaster: @jacqui_lantern234 I'm looking forward to the spring battle pass!
Thefluffiestguineapig: @jacqui_lantern234 Apologies, I need to find an alternative to dude that is more gender neutral, in veterinary practice I learned quickly that some people get VERY offended if you misgender their animal so I swapped and now call everything "adorable floofs". I need to find the human equivalent
bytecaster: Beej advocating the "touch grass" initiative
jacqui_lantern234:
@bytecaster im getting hard nerfed this spring. though my summer patch will make up for it
Mr_Dirty: Beej for ceo of EA!
Thefluffiestguineapig: @bytecaster Spring battle pass sounds like the Mongol hoard model
tdapenguin: @Thefluffiestguineapig I'm up for being an adorable floof!
Laserbeaks_Fury: Ranks reset every day. The entire world devolves into playing Marvel Rivals 24 hours a day
jacqui_lantern234:
@Thefluffiestguineapig thank you ive been using "buddy" a lot lately, but your milage may vary
TehAmelie: better yet, ranks reset at midnight in every timezone
GapFiller: moral here is Beej def not the kinda guy to eg guard an asteroid for 8 hrs on behalf of his guild in EVE Online
bytecaster: @TehAmelie Except if it's a full moon
bytecaster: "People screamed at us A LOT"
DoodlestheGreat: Oh boy, extra wealthy.
Juliamon: fantastic use of "wealth"
KeytarCat: @jacqui_lantern234 What up, fluffers!
Thefluffiestguineapig: @jacqui_lantern234 Please just keep reminding me and eventually it will get through the fog of tired.
tdapenguin: @KeytarCat hmmm, that is less adorable
jacqui_lantern234:
@Thefluffiestguineapig will do my best
SquareDotCube: When did Sarah become a Tremere?
definenull:
GapFiller: that really is choosing violence
GapFiller:
!?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Spray bottle is only full of water the first week
Kentosaurus: the pendulum swings the other way: ranks never reset
jacqui_lantern234:
@KeytarCat that has, uhh..... certain job implications that i wouldnt be comfortable signing up for
Thefluffiestguineapig: Every week after that the liquid changes
Mr_Dirty: Beej is a malkavian, not sure a squirt bottle will work?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Mr_Dirty If it's full of lemon juice it might
CaptainSpam: I know Splatoon 3 does rank drops every season, but it's done that since day one.
gnyrinn: @jacqui_lantern234 Haven't certain medicines rendered that job obsolete?
Sarah_Serinde:
@SquareDotCube I walk away from stream for like 2 minutes...
jacqui_lantern234:
@gnyrinn i dunno, buddy, theres a reason im not in such a business
Thefluffiestguineapig: @jacqui_lantern234 Also those medicines only work for certain anatomies
Izandai: That is not something I would ever want to ask for from gamers.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Izandai Not in the modern era at least
GapFiller: we already had the trust conv earlier this stream
GapFiller: and istr the verdict was decisively in the nay column
Sarah_Serinde: But if you assume it's going to be unpopular when it might not actually be, you're predisposing people to dislike it
Sarah_Serinde: Hence why you shouldn't share your art by going "I know it's bad, but"
GapFiller: heh somebodys winning that argument either way
DaxStrife: F**kin' Dave!
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Sarah_Serinde Unless you are literally Marcel Duchamp or sharing Piss Christ
Thefluffiestguineapig: Where saying it's bad is part of the art
Sarah_Serinde:
Well yes in that case you say whatever you want
RubikDarkwill: Reality is the number 1 arbiter
Sarah_Serinde: And watch people get mad
GapFiller: Thefluffiestguineapig thing is even in those cases they werent preemptively saying the art was bad perse
enkil_42: like new coke
Thefluffiestguineapig: @GapFiller That's fair
mtvcdm: !patreon
enkil_42: everyone apparently taste tested and loved new coke over classic coke
GapFiller: long ChillPoint today

@GapFiller So Wheeler and Ben Ben 
DaxStrife: We all know the only Magic player in the group to die during a game was Alex.
GapFiller: VIBES!
gibbousm: Vibing?

Sethalidos: honse?
Thefluffiestguineapig: For anyone not watching the MtG Ian also plays Yakuza in a couple hours and talks about his murder!
accountmadeforants: @Thefluffiestguineapig So kind of Ian's spirit to leave clues behind after his death
Juliamon: I wish I could get properly cheap chocolate tomorrow, but the only place that did 50% off was Rite Aid... CVS only did 25% and the suupermarket did 30%

Thefluffiestguineapig: @Juliamon Boooooooooo!!! America sucks! In many ways!
Juliamon: yeah...
accountmadeforants: Chocolate is getting more expensive world-wide. Cacao harvests were real bad late last year, apparently.
KeytarCat: @accountmadeforants yeah, I read that the monoculture plantation style is nearing the end of its life cycle, and the soil just can't support cacao anymore
TehAmelie: and then there's the lawsuits over chocolate lead content. i think it's time to move on to other sweets
DoodlestheGreat: Nougat for all!
TehAmelie: i do like nougat
accountmadeforants: Or, you know, treat it as a luxury item. Which it should be, given the price if the people farming cacao were paid properly (or at all) and weren't incentivized to farm it exclusively.
TehAmelie: quite
accountmadeforants: (I should stress that this isn't an indictment of people who want cheap chocolate, just Nestlé and the like who created this unsustainable industry)
Earthenone: its hard to find cheap chocolate that isent made in a nut facility
Earthenone: if i even want kit kats i have to import them from canada
Juliamon: fuck Nestle, just in general
accountmadeforants: It really is just an incredible blight of a company, huh
