The weird not knowing the franchise comments Damiani keeps making (playing as Chuck Greene in the “alternate” DR 2, describing Resident Evil 6 as his ideal RE sequel) are hilarious when you imagine Huber sick at home watching it live and having a stroke

[@Sputnik34]

Thanks for pushing through and getting this episode out. Still a good time with the small head count :') Edit: get yo self some veggie tacos!

[@zacarybruner2600]

Will always a defend RE6 when people attack. It was great.

[@thewhitewolf4968]

Literally replayed it a few weeks and it's not. Re 5 is much better

[@AlexJames840]

Damiani’s audio quality was really poor this episode

[@anthonymitnaul3595]

Peaky right?

[@user-ct8my8rv9c]

Agreed it is terrible

[@comradestannis]

This episode be like: "We have Easy Allies at home."

[@NickBLeaveIt]

They were never gonna be there, but I wish someone had said either The Iron Horses from Sly 2 or the nightmare train (whatever it's called) from The Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogie's Revenge.

[@sirmel11]

I prefer American Mexican food.

[@sagemodeq544]

I know if Huber was here he’d be disappointed on how low the RE0 train was on the list 😂.

[@planzproductions2631]

Pretty sure he (rightly) hates that game

[@sagemodeq544]

@@planzproductions2631 he loves the train, hates everything else 🤣

[@archonrex5600]

Looking great you two, serious, Steppin' in for the fam on this very particular weekend is much appreciated! Tons L&R

[@lireid1825]

dude doomtrain RULES

[@Julio3324]

Haven't watched the show yet but please tell me Bertha from AC syndicate is on the trains list

[@fayte0618]

Finished Dawntrail MSQ and its not as bad the internet says it is. The most “refreshing” expansion ive played. Everything is actually turned up to 11 tbh. The story probably throws most people off because its a subversion of shounen cliches by being more introspective and diplomatic while also not being about you but the “new world” around you this time but in your POV.

[@bratsampsonyt]

The internet's favourite hobby these days is going off on something they haven't come close to finishing / processing within 48 hours of release. See also Shadow of the Erdtree.

[@kephalai]

i watched the first cutscene and immediately switched to japanese and enjoyed the whole story :D it feels like a story written in japanese, instead of the previous expansion's feeling of a story written in english. ff16 also feels like a story written in english

[@enginctn]

❤️

[@TheNamekianClown]

If the patrons don't vote Missle from Ghost Trick as the best dog they are objectively wrong.

[@EricShoe]

I prefer undertale dog

[@HaruVibes_]

I still love the vibes of these lowkey episodes :) L&R

[@l90316]

18:50 Dude, that’s RE6.

[@SIXminWHISTLE]

Yeah, I think he forgot too much. Having the 4 campaigns definitely spread them too thin, and they all pretty much just felt like extreme action due to the movement, quick fire ability, and finishers. He is the fan that only came to the series with RE4 that Capcom was aiming for with 5 and 6.

[@jepicondyle]

Great energy from these two considering the small cast this time!

[@Lord_Heisenberg]

Actually really enjoyed this episode!

[@MuMasoo]

Honestly, you guys should have waited to get at least one of the other allies.

[@xandypunk7350]

Agreed

[@EasyAllies]

We were originally going to shoot on Wednesday and pushed until Saturday. Isla and Damiani wouldn't have been available today, and no guarantee Huber would have been up to it yet either. I think it's the best option we had on our plate. Better than cancelling the episode altogether, and I think they did a pretty good job with it, too. -Bloodworth

[@scottclay9005]

Good job guys ! Intense food convo

[@DarkEggplant]

Nice, breezy little episode. Love and respect for holding the fort. 💖

[@Neon_Bayhem]

Fun episode, It had a good flow. Also, if anyone thinks Mario is not a last name there's an attorney here called Carter Mario alongside his daughter Alex Mario.

[@bruinfan05]

Great job Isla and Damiani! Fun episode despite just being the two of you, kind of a fun change of pace imo

[@charoleawood]

i'm with Huber, the Dead Rising games are amazing. i love DRs 2 & 3, Chuck and Nick are wonderful and criminally underrated heroes.

[@m.collier708]

No mention of the Train Level from GoldenEye 64? Sad.

[@EasyAllies]

it was in there. -Bloodworth

[@charoleawood]

Trains in Forza Horizon are always a highlight and i want to give a special shout out to the Gargant transportation in the "Gargan Roo" area of Final Fantasy Nine --- the trams are creatures and that just rocks. FF9 also has that wonderful funicular.

[@rallymonkey150]

FF14 is my game that I will never play as it’s hundreds of hours before it gets good/payoff but have more FOMO of that than any other game.

[@Highwind452]

I have minimal experience with MMOs and I finished the main campaign (Realm Reborn) in 65 hours. Also did it completely Solo. Although, I am getting bogged down in post game quests to get into Heavensward now.

[@d_lightnin8108]

Great episode! You two really held it down this week.

[@deathrowslag78]

Like like like ya know like ya know

[@jamesbroome4802]

The Love and Respect duet was just dreamy!

[@anthonydevetis7221]

Love and respect but man this is the worst

[@RomanGaluk]

Nintendo skip Gamescom 2024

[@Crylar44]

Isla's look off to the side at 1:06:27 xDD

[@doyker]

What the hell happened to the old game trailers crew? This is sad. Glad to see Brad and Bosman doing well after they got out of this nightmare

[@EasyAllies]

Being far too dramatic my friend. We were down a few people because life happens, but it was in no way a "nightmare." People really enjoyed our SGF coverage, we had Kyle and some other folks over. And this was a good episode despite the limited crew. -Bloodworth

[@EasyAllies]

As far as other GT people go, AJ LoCascio is the voice of Gambit in X-Men 97, Rich Brown is in the latest Detective Pikachu, Jeremy Hoffmann is leading the video team at Epic Games (and has several other GT folks with him), Brandon Jones is writing books, Geoff Keighley's got The Game Awards and Summer Game Fest. There are some folks over at Riot, etc. Some of us are here covering games at Easy Allies because that's what we want to keep doing. Overall, the old GT crew is doing pretty great. -Bloodworth

[@chariotgoblin8060]

😴

[@araknieretro]

I wish i could go back an play original Destiny 2 onboarding, now i can't understand anything. I just don't have the time to keep up with online games anymore week to week. I would welcome an offline mode Destiny 2 where they bring back for sale the deprecated expansions, being offline i think that would solve their server problems, no?

[@Kosmoloog]

It's not that your not the main character in dawntrail, it's that the main character is extremely cringe and badly written.

[@chuck1991]

No train boss from Rocket Knight Adventures? An actual train boss doesn’t make it… awful list…

[@luklopskywalk]

Ilsa is fiiiiine.
