Hello 
CaptainSpam:
Not *A* pit, Cori, *THE* Pit. 
A_Dub888: @CaptainSpam The place Bane threw Batman down in Dark Knight Rises??
FPNY41: any chance of seeing a Blue Prince stream on Talking Sim?
iris_of_ether: There's also the song Chicken in Black
RatherLargeToad: Abby Normal?
FPNY41: cool!
iris_of_ether: It's a Johnny Cash song he wrote when supposedly he needed to get out of a contract
CaptainSpam:
We're the voices, chat! Yaaaaay! 
Creideiki_SE: Oooh, Chat has been upgraded from text to voice.
iris_of_ether: He gets a murderer brain, a chicken gets Cash's brain
A_Dub888: the voices tell me to burn things and I've mostly resisted that
CaptainSpam: @A_Dub888 Of course! It's a fine pit.
Zu_o: where content is smelt
A_Dub888: Where content is
TheAwkes: The far future of no more than 8 months from now.

e_bloc: don't you year 2525 me
NotCainNorAbel: I love that Beej trained you all to push the store and then 'he' took it away
iris_of_ether: What about a squirrel suit
FPNY41: That sounds suspiciously like Airwolf
TheMerricat: That's so Airwolf.
iris_of_ether: Hahaha
remembrancer_vivi: that didn't sound like Terrible Lie
FPNY41: if you recognized that theme, remember to take your back pills
SnackPak_: live your dream, Cori
niccus: a beautiful smear across a beautiful cliff
Creideiki_SE: There's a cellist on YouTube who plays the Airwolf theme on eight cello voices. By herself. And the magic of video editing.
DAC169: there's probably that too
NotCainNorAbel: that has to be a comic someplace; one person in a fur suit at the top of the mountain "i think I misunderstood'
Singenmeister: a crochet parachute
LordZarano: If you want personal air transport, that exists. It's called a paramotor. There's a guy on YouTube that flew to McDonald's on one
eid010n: Playing Airwolf in C for Cello as they fall
iris_of_ether: Somewhere Lao wants to scream and doesn't know why
yianniannianniannianni: "We walked over to check on the cello. It was fine. She never walked again."
A_Dub888: a million shattered splinters?
Nigouki: Cello in the Death Zone is an album I want to hear
TheAinMAP:
DAC169:
wut 
Nigouki: how was the in-person experience of that Balkan Marching Band in the Moonbase for DB?
SquareDotCube: kind of like the folk story of the Civil War soldier that changed after he got shot in the forehead that pretty much cleaved the brain into its hemispheres but didn't kill him
e_bloc: gage
iris_of_ether: Apparently over time he was able to recover some ability to socially regulate, which is heartening to me
yianniannianniannianni: Sounds like religion
eid010n: Phineas Gage? The railroad construction foreman
A_Dub888: We play videogames on TS???
CaptainSpam: Hi, Morden.
e_bloc: that was the short-form podcast. for the long-form podcast please see let's nope at 8 pm
iris_of_ether: Gauntlet Legends in this house
TheMerricat: Oh this isn't the side scroller I thought it was, when did they make a tactics metal slug?
Dog_of_Myth: Oh, I have this game. It's pretty fun
iris_of_ether:
A_Dub888: Midnight Suns has Book Club
SquareDotCube: Don't trust Spider-Man with a drum full of gas
Brozard: I'm here for Fi supremaci
DAC169: they're GONE gone
SquareDotCube: @CaptainSpam Battletech (2018) does this and one of the best ways to keep a light mech protected
CaptainSpam: @SquareDotCube Sure, it's just that I feel in most tactics games, the opposite is true, at least in the sense that moving more gives you some major disadvantage that turn in exchange for the added movement.
GhostValv:
how? hi 
Manae: @CaptainSpam It does also make your own aim a little worse
A_Dub888: ur charming
CaptainSpam: So I assume we'll get Ace Rimmer next? Er... I mean Tarma.
RatherLargeToad: One does not simply walk into Morden
richard_ermen: Oh, Metal Slugs? Is it WarCrime time?
A_Dub888: @Nigouki Oh THAT'S a metal slug
Nigouki: is there a gossip system to ruin the enemy's relationships?
CaptainSpam: Hey, there's our good friend, the Metal Slug.
Nigouki: getting shotgunned in half sure is a way to go
A_Dub888: @nigouki two ways in fact
CaptainSpam: Isomometrory
RatherLargeToad: why’d we have to get paired up with the bandits with boomerang swords? Seems unsporting of them
SquareDotCube: r stick
shushu2539: that guy shouldn't be shaking his bag full of explosives
CaptainSpam: The Metal Slug games have always been more of wackiness in firepower, I'd be surprised if there were a friendly fire mechanic.
CaptainSpam: (for the player; I *wouldn't* be surprised if you can trick enemies into shooting their allies)
SquareDotCube: if it's anyrthing like Advance wars, you can check the distances of movement and attack ranges
SquareDotCube: of enemy units
shushu2539: they have the oil..
CaptainSpam:
Well... unfortunately, the Middle-Eastern villain bit is sort of established Metal Slug convention by this point... 
grumpenprole: i'm getting an ad for like a us military gaming league?
RaeonTheAroAce: Isn't America fun?
jessicaengle: Hi Chat. Did I miss MoC, or have I forgotten what day it is?
Juliamon: You did miss it by several hours
CaptainSpam: I'm afraid you missed the end of MoC about an hour and a half ago.
jessicaengle:
Oh, okay. Thanks 
jessicaengle: lul
jessicaengle: Well, I hope it was a good strem.
CaptainSpam: Watching other Twitch channels does really drive home for me how much differently LRR runs theirs.
TheAinMAP:
Brozard: Fi!
iris_of_ether:
Juliamon: also CaptainSpam I would argue that, as we are living in a post-Spec Ops: The Line world, one would hope this game to at least make an attempt at subverting its own tropes
CaptainSpam:
@Juliamon Oh, I agree, and yet... well, here we are. 
CaptainSpam: "Shot me once, you can't shoot me there again!"
Denis_Dobrolubov: It is like poison, you have to eat little bullets to become immune to big bullets.
iris_of_ether:
Juliamon: Could we, like... pivot to a different game...
shushu2539: can you sneeze to spread your cold over the enemy?

CaptainSpam: Many hostages in Metal Slug games have high-powered weaponry. Huh.
Dog_of_Myth:
Lysander_salamander: Hello everyone
CaptainSpam: I'm trying to think of other Metal Slug enemy archetypes that might show up, and... um, do things also get problematic in MS5? My knowledge of the game kinda dries up after MS3.
j_crane330: So that guy is kicking back relexing like it's the lazy river

BorgarWithAShotgun: depends on what I ate
TheAinMAP:
SquareDotCube: that snake is hissed
NotAFireDemon: I wonder if Ralph and Clark are unlockable characters in this
CaptainSpam: I mean, way to take initiative, Marco.
shushu2539: blow that death train-ship with a single shot at the reactor through the vent
CaptainSpam: This seems bad.
CaptainSpam: This may be a restart.
CaptainSpam: (assuming that's an option)
goombalax: we pave the save, Metal Slug Ironman
TheAinMAP:
CaptainSpam: Welp.
A_Dub888: I thought I was filled with meat…
SquareDotCube: next one is obviously Tarma
TheAinMAP: Let's go.
CaptainSpam: Gotta get the core four.
CamelAttack: Camels never die!
ballesta25: @CamelAttack Yeah, it's an Indestructible environment piece
Dragoonspirits86: they are real arabic
CaptainSpam: Camels aren't rideable in this? They were in the original games. Had guns on 'em.
SquareDotCube: like a sword swallower
goombalax: Utena is really good
SquareDotCube: (and that's how they were in Metal Slug 2)
CaptainSpam: More like a sword regurgitater.
Dragoonspirits86: didt get a good look and the font is stylized, first one was, محل is shop of some kind
CaptainSpam: Eri just really wants to blow something up, but Fio and Marco are doing their jobs too well.
DAC169: counter-intuitive, but easier to program
shushu2539: these people could be jumping in the olympics instead of killing each other
Orxolon: hello hellooo
Orxolon: i love tactics and i love metal slug,sooo,this was made for me XD
SquareDotCube: 2 was mummies, zombies and aliens
goombalax: yeah...fictional...
niccus: you can probably co-op the metals slug on talking sim if you felt like it
SquareDotCube: 1,2, X and 3 are probably the best ones. Advance gets an honorable mention, 4 onwards were kinda, eh
SquareDotCube: (X was the very difficult remix of MS1 and 2 stages)
CaptainSpam: I recall Alex did at least some of the Metal Slug games back on IDDQDERP.
Gekyouryuu: dang it, I'm always late for Talking Sim because it starts as my day at work ends, and also Twitch never announces it because it's too close to Mine-o-clock going live
Gekyouryuu: off topic, somewhat: it's unlikely to be the actual intent of the creators, but I saw a great post a month or two ago citing screenshots that, if one were so inclined, could read as Fio being a trans girl, and I love that
Despoiler98: Metal GEAR
Dragoonspirits86: froim the trailer, yes
BrowneePointz: Hey! This game isn't supposed to be out! It's supposed to be in nebulous dev hell for eternity!
Marvoleath: Gunwich?
BrowneePointz: it was announced a while ago, and then just kind of...disappeared
RatherLargeToad: this has been out since November, apparently
BrowneePointz: I AM Excited for that Star Wars X-Com game next year by the Ex-Firaxis Devs though(BitReactor is doing it)
Invitare: it's Respawn, not Firaxes
BrowneePointz: It's Bit Reactor
BrowneePointz: Ex-Firaxis devs
BrowneePointz: it's Bit Reactor
BrowneePointz: I double checked
Invitare: ah it's both? Maybe Respawn are overseeing it in some way
Juliamon: The two companies are in a partnership for the game
Juliamon: primarily developed by Bit Reactor, with support from Respawn
BrowneePointz: Yea that makes Sense. Respawn is EA's go to support Studio atm
Zu_o: I don't think there's a single woman in that trailer.
goombalax: the new xcom might provide that
Invitare: Respawn did the Fallen Order and Survivor so that's good
BrowneePointz: @Zu_o I think there's a lady Mando? but could just be a Commando
RatherLargeToad: @zu_o The character with the lightsaber in the trailer is female
goombalax: X-com is about humans fighting aliens. The star wars one will feature aliens fighting humans, as a treat
RatherLargeToad: or at least they were referring to her as such in the press material
BrowneePointz: oh yea the Tognath Padawan in the trailer is a Lady
BrowneePointz: The art team for this killed it honestly
RatherLargeToad: ship has many wobblyguns

SomebodyNowhere: theres a tactical metal slug? I though the tactic was get Rawkett Lawnchair use Rawkett Lawnchair
Zu_o: @RatherLargeToad I thought that might be the case, and hearing that gladdens me, because the trailer does look like a lot of fun.
SomebodyNowhere: !findquote metal

Dog_of_Myth:
TheAinMAP:
TheMandrew: Hobby Lobby? I hate those guys
Anubis169: Shredder's Revenge?
BrowneePointz: I mean, the Mystery Dungeon games were a shock to the system and REAL good
Anubis169: FF Tactics is an underrated gem imo
Anubis169: it has the best writing of any of the 2D games
iris_of_ether: FF Tactics is a delight
Anubis169: ahh has it got the recognition now? kickass!!
Bruceski: People call anything underrated
BrowneePointz: Pokemon Conquest was a tactics game right?
BrowneePointz: all I remember is it had Nobunaga
Dragoonspirits86: yah a couple of re-makes and re-releases and its gotten lots of good attention
iris_of_ether: Amazing
Anubis169: super mario rpg?
mercano82: Raving Rabids?
mercano82: The only tactical RPG I can think of with Mario is the Rabbids games.
CaptainSpam: Yeah, Mario + Rabbids was the tactics series.
Anubis169: probably not, but if they experience it it'll be a new good thing
SquareDotCube: their nostalgia is the ipad
niccus: do you count minecraft?
Dragoonspirits86: man, why you gotta say things like that...
DAC169: FFT is from PS1, War of the Lions remake is from PSP. neither is on Steam
Anubis169: i loved mario rabbids
DAC169: I double checked
goombalax: War on Creepers
iris_of_ether: Holy shit
Anubis169: You experienced GenAlpha yesterday in the London Drugs
niccus: i'm sure we're not *that* far away from a black hawk down tie-in for fortnite
LordZarano: The first turn based tactics game was Famicom Wars. Other games in the Wars series include Game Boy Wars, Super Famicom Wars, Advance Wars, & Battalion Wars
iris_of_ether: That's the sort of thing I could see Andrew resharing on Instagram
mercano82: chat, which came first, Final Fantasy Tactics or Ogre Tactics? They’re of a similar age.
iris_of_ether: I think Ogre Tactics actually. But please confirm
Anubis169: something = trueValue... where trueValue is a variable from an imported package, which is equal to boolean True
DAC169: Tactics Ogre came first. some of the same people worked on both
Anubis169: Nobody -ever- codes like this
Dragoonspirits86: ditto ogre tactics
Anubis169 sings the kiddie voice
Anubis169: "Don't you put it in your code... Don't you put it in your code... "
mercano82: Open the ports, Baltimore said to MV Dali
SquareDotCube: the era of overwhelming
Nigouki: one of those floating datacenters somehow ends up in charge of it's own maintenance systems and just sinks itself
