[@PlungerMettaur]

I'm surprised that you guys talked about David Cage, but then again Pat IS here So why am I surprised?

BOY-vin

[@07azunyan]

Metal Gear remake IS confirmed and Konami has hired Hideo Kojima to hand deliver the game to your doorstep. Yes, YOU reading this, and he will come into your house, cook you a steak dinner and do a bit about all the puns in your native language.

23:00 fine milk quote

[@carl8790]

Good discussion

[@1Diddums]

Looked up Pat podcasts on a whim. Wicked find. Would've loved an MGS4 Eva escort, ngl.

[@romulocasas4906]

twin snakes is not bad, its probably the game Kojima wouldve made if he had the technology at the time. Eva literally does a back flip off Ocelots face on a motorcycle and people hate that snake jumps over a rocket? seems exactly like something he would be able to do. A Metal Gear Solid remake would need a Final Fantasy 7 remake upgrade where they extend the events of the game but you still do the same story line and events just expanded upon. I dont think the fragile metal gear fan base can handle any sort of change, so that would automatically make it a failure in the eyes of hardheaded gamers who only want the same nostalgic feeling

[@GreedAndSelfishness]

Strongest and most consistent rumor has been that Silent Hill reboot is being developed by a team that has some original Team Silent members. Silent Hills/Kojima bullshit keeps resurfacing and are immediately shot down.

[@MichaelVideoMaker1028]

11:11 bro you literally just mentioned this last episode, no hate just funny

[@PredatoryQQmber]

3:40 "Beat" ? Yes. LPed ? Debatable. Those "60%" claims came out of nowhere, were not in the "LP". 5:40 WTF, Pat ?! You've been talking about that in SBF videos ! 8:30 Ground Zeroes levels of base polish but for whole MGS1 ? If only. 9:00 You say that but MGS1 Disc 3: VR Missions really shows what MGS1 gameplay design is capable of. 13:00 Well, that's even sadder. Though originally likeness was "stolen" from Van Damme. 16:00 When Pat mentioned him going on this podcast in recent recording I tried finding it but it wasn't here, checked out random time on one of the latests ones and it was the same thing: minutes of "da sheeple on da Internetz is dum-dum, unlike us, humen of culture" :\ 18:20 Well, yeah. It's like that thing was balanced for 4 players, they just didn't care otherwise. And that story… 21:05 Are we suddenly done making excuses for RE3 ? What's next, honest bashing for TLOU2 too ? 23:48 Speaking of RE4's graphics… ever heard of "RE4HD Project" ? 28:10 Considering that it's basically a stereo subwoofer, it's not hard to do. It DOES just work. 34:48 Ahhh… the good ol' days of 9/11 ! …seriously, MGS2 was delayed due to 9/11. 36:20 How dare you say that about genius of Policenauts ? It's true that it has no breaks though. USian moralising of 2020 is annoying on its own but judging a Japanese game of 1980s by neo-puritanism ? 45:10 Now Pat just describing Brad Pitt's "Ad Astra" travesty. He also totally missed how Earth is ruined. 47:50 Breaking game with exploits trivializes it and destroys fun ? Can't be ! 55:18 Except that is the premise for actual points of those dialogues. Like, how many people are actually aware of how global balance of nuclear powers work ? MGS1 describes exactly why Metal Gear is dangerous from technological and strategic point of view. But in reality that spot is taken by drone-like guided missiles. 25:50 Yeah, like RE4 is the worst RE game, wholly being an escort mission and all. 59:40 Yeah, because THAT is the problem with TLOU2… sure. Whining about lack of "ethical consumption under capitalism" while submissively throwing your whole lives into its grinders, how quaint. 1:00:24 The Pat, DSP's younger brother, puts David Cage, his uncle, above Genius Kojumbo: confirmed ! 1:12:00 Men become demons. 1:14:30 Men become Homo Demens… and consume Monster.

[@FutaSnek]

Are... are you all right man?

[@PredatoryQQmber]

@@FutaSnek I am an "all right man" if you mean "a man that's all right" and not "man that is fully on political right". And if you meant "if I'm alright" then you should have worked on your grammar and used comma as delimiter for addressing. But we both know that what you really meant is that YOU have some kind of problem with something I've said, so it's you who is not all right.

[@PredatoryQQmber]

@@aceflibble Projecting much ? Let me guess: you're a fan of these guys or a Pat-donator, so something I've said has hurt your feelings about them ? Anyway, if you have some kind of problem then tell it instead of belching out a pointless personal attack.
