Hi, it's Tuesday. What is it? It's the 18th. 18th.
One and an eight. Yes. December 18th, 2018. This is the Giant Bombcast.
Your final normal giant bombcast for 2018. Nothing coming in. Yeah. This one's going to be normal.
That's right. Yeah. This is the normal one. This is the default one.
Yeah. Reporting normal one here. I'm Jeff Gersman, Brad Schumaker on assignment. And Ben Pack, Jason H.
Riker. Hello. Hello. Hi.
Hello down there. Hello. Running it. Yes.
Running it. Running it. Thank you for running that shit. You're introducing us.
I forget who you guys are sometimes. Seriously. Yeah. No, it's especially like this front part of the week.
Like I've had a couple of days out of the office and working with home and doing stuff and then I get in. It's like, who the fuck are these fucking people? Morning, tall guy. Hey, other guy.
Morning. That guy's sitting over there now. Who's in Dax? Yeah.
Jan, yes. The wrestling pay-per-view was local. It was. I understand you went.
I went. Yeah. I got there late because I picked up a homey from the airport. But I did not miss much.
Some could have said you could have just hung out the airport. You missed like one match. Just do you watch it on the network? Yeah.
It was the half that I did catch. Yeah. Fantastic. Cool.
Okay. I was bummed I missed the natty and Ruby right match just because I like tables. Yeah. But I really think they got to stop naming paper views after gimmick matches.
Totally. And then just expect everything to have the game. What the fuck is a chair's match? Oh, I can take the hell out of this.
Okay. You got four people in the ring and you got three chairs and they start playing the music and they run around the chairs and when they stop the music, everyone has to pick it up a chair and hit somebody else. If they had explained that, I think it would have made a lot more sense. You're not when I went to the bathroom during the chairs match because that was my bathroom break.
I heard a little kid ask his mom. Mom, are they just playing musical chairs in the ring? Yes. Yes.
And then that would have been way better. And then just like here's a match where you can use chairs. So it's no disqualification. Like kind of just like you can kind of use whatever, but like you're compelled to use chairs because it's a chairs man.
It's just a sledgehammer. No, no, no. Absolutely. Do you not touch the stairs?
Yeah. That's not a stairs match. That's something in three matches the stairs. Yeah.
Who won? Who won what? The whole thing? The big event.
The fans did. That's right. The new authority. That's certainly not true.
I don't know. That's the Daniel Bryan age. I was matching good. Yes.
And I like Asuka. So I love her. I'm glad she's the best. She's credible again.
Yep. She's no longer a tag team. Daniel Bryan has Daniel Bryan been back in the mix. Yeah.
Something like that. Yeah. He's back. He's a bad guy now on the platform of you people and your sort of wastefulness.
He's a vegan. He always was. And now they're just like that's his character is just like fucking like they recorded this thing. They dropped it into like some kind of it was a promo for the pay-per-view of like these two just faces.
I don't know who the fuck they were hosting this thing wearing sweatshirts. And he just walks onto it and is just like, I'm not here to sell merchandise. It's wasteful. It's just like this whole anti-consumer thing.
It was like a really good. It was really good. And that's kind of his character sure. And that is it.
Yeah. And any vow that if you won this match, he was going to replace the leather on the title belt. Yeah. Fantastic.
That's where that character needs to go. It's very much like the when CM Punk was like, I'm straight edge and that makes me better than you type stuff. It reminds me of that a little bit. Too many matches on the car.
Oh, yeah. Like Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose, you'd be hyped for that match. But then you realize it's like a Shield member versus Shield member. Very two.
Yeah. In like an intensely boring match. I was not expecting the crowd to change. This is boring.
They literally apologized for it last night on TV. How so? Like, dude. So they've had their lowest ratings in the history of the program this last month or so.
Yeah. It's been an abysmal three hours of television. So either comparing it to when WCW was on its way out. Yeah.
Just programming. Just fucking garbage. But also like they started having a storyline that was like, you're responsible for the ratings being bad. Like just playing into it in a very WCW sort of way.
They'd be like, this is embarrassing on top of embarrassing now. Wow. And so they fucking started their Monday night show last night. Like they had to tease it.
They said like Vince McMahon's coming back to Monday Night Raw. And he's got to shake things up. And you're like, what the fuck ever? Yeah.
And it's like, it's a ratings record. They pull whenever they're like, oh, we got to put the demands on the show, which is always like the saddest statement about like wheeled them out. Because that's like the most meta thing you can latch on to. Yeah.
Just because they're probably sadly the most recognizable thing. And that's like the problem is that they haven't really been good at making huge, huge stars the way that they sometimes are. You know, there's no next to John Cena. Right.
There's no wrong. There's no next to exactly. So it's like everyone is kind of in the middle. And you know, like everyone likes someone different and all that.
But like you're not going to sit through three hours to watch the one match you like. Yeah. You're just going to like hear about it after the fact like it's all forgettable stuff. So they start the show by having this man come out and then he calls out, you know, Stephanie McMahon and Shane McMahon and Triple H.
Oh, wow. All the McMans are here. And then they proceed to kind of halfway apologize for the state of the show and say like, this is at the top of the show. It's the very beginning of the show.
Hey, we know it's been shit. And this one's probably also going to be sick because we have enough time to fix it. Exactly. So they pretty much say in the coming weeks, you're going to see new matchups and and new faces and new characters and knew this and knew that.
And it's this halfway admission from like Vince McMahon himself saying like, I can't really do it alone. But then calling out those three people who have all been there for decades. Yeah, like it's not like, you know, well, Shane came and went whatever. Sure.
Fucking they changed jack shit. Yeah, like and came out and and oh man. So Jeff, are we all in this together? Yeah.
So they came out and said like, we're going to do your the authority now, the fans, you're the ones calling the shots. We're going to listen to you. And then they proceeded to have this guy, Baron Corbin, who's like a fine young wrestler, like whatever. They put him in the role of he is the the figure head authority figure for the Monday night show for role.
And so he makes the matches and blah blah blah. And he's a bad guy because the person in charge is typically a bad guy. So he's helping his friends and fucking over the good guys. And they called him out and then had a bunch of people kick his ass in this symbolic like so it became part of these ongoing storyline of like, we're changing everything.
Now we're going to do the same fucking hope he shit. We've been relying on for decades and have a bunch of people come out and beat up the authority figure as a way to send him off. And it's just like, it's fucking embarrassing. Yeah, of course, one of the first people they have to beat up Baron Corbin is like one of the most recognizable names Kurt Angle.
Right. We'll just have like a 50 year old beat up this dude. Exactly. Yeah.
Because he was the authority figure before that and then he got screwed over. So it's like him getting his revenge or whatever the fuck, you know, just a, just a, a lot of choices were made. But like, and then for the rest of the show, you have the announcer saying, this is the new era. Look at all these changes.
It's so different. You can't just say it's a new era. Exactly. But that is exactly what they did.
Yeah. And I guess they, so they're not live next week because it's Christmas. Sure. And so they recorded two shows back to back.
And well, I guess I won't spoil the fucking matches of next week's show, but I read what that stuff was and heard the report about what it is. That's the new age, right? The exact same fucking shit. Wait, so they recorded six hours?
Totally. Imagine being in that audience and fucking sitting out for that six hours of television. No. No.
No. Santa ever wrestled? Yeah. No, Stone Cold gave Santa a stunner at one point.
Yeah. Yeah. Orange Henry was saying at one point. Okay.
Balls Mahoney played Zanta Claus with an X instead of an S, I believe. Is that right? Yes. But that TLC match at the end.
Amazing. That was good. Yes. Who was it?
Yeah. Charlotte, Becky, and Oscar. Damn. Yeah.
Pretty predictable. I guess I didn't necessarily predict the actual ending, but I figured Oscar was going to win at that point because the thing you wouldn't expect and it frees up the other two to get into this round of rousing shit that now they're that they need to build to WrestleMania. I was dreading that Nia would come in. Yeah.
Right. Actually break someone's face. Just a, it's been some fucking rough television. But not for a while.
And I guess, I guess I should be, it has been some of the roughest, like, you know, I've watched wrestling off and on for a very long time. Yeah. It is some of the worst lately. It is some of the worst TV.
Smackdown has been, yes. Yeah. There have been parts about Smackdown that have been okay, but it's still this general malaise of just like, none of this is stuff you need to see or care about or anything. Here's something to do.
Okay. They need to, okay. All right. This is, I mean, you are now in charge of these shows.
All right. We are the booking committee. Well, yeah. So when the ratings don't improve, I'm going to come out and say, Hey, we put this on you, we put this on the store, and then Kurt Angle's going to fucking do three German suplexes to you.
I would, yeah. Free song. I'd like to just watch that. Yeah.
Yeah. Okay. Love it or hate that Game of Thrones has changed how TV works. A lot of people come into these prestige television shows and expect the unexpected, right?
Yeah. Big deaths. Just like, oh, that's kind of bled out until a lot of other shows. Like, you cut no character is safe at any time.
Right. They just need to start killing off wrestling. Yeah. I actually, so I think that they do a pretty good job of that themselves, but killing careers.
Yeah. Yeah. So it just takes the gears for them to kind of bleed out, just like get more of them and start killing them off. Well, they announced six new people coming to the roster as if that will fix it.
They have so many people, so many talented people, like throw six more people into the mix and then not put them on that much either. I was heavy into the NXT for a long time. Yeah. Yeah.
I really like, you know, the match of the picture, the actual wrestling I'm into. Then they bring them up to the main roster and then they just completely squandered their talents. That's actually why I went out. But it seems like they're doing a lot more of that.
Are people like now wanting to go back to NXT? There's been some talk about like, hey, maybe we'll kind of cross this a little bit, you know, like have this be a little more of a fluid thing and Tyler Breeze went back. Yeah. He went back for a little bit and then just showed up on.
Yeah. They did nothing with him when he came up. Right. Well, they were doing the fashion police thing and like that was, you know, whatever.
That was good shit. It's not like main event stuff. Like, you know, like perfect mid card. Yeah.
Feeler for the show. Yeah. You have to have, you have to have a spot for everybody. And they have too many people.
So actually, I think what you're saying about killing off characters, they should probably actually fire out a third of their roster. Yeah. Instead of acquiring half. Yeah.
Exactly. Or start another television show on, that's only on network. No. And it's like, don't, you know, people are like, hey, if you want to see this type of wrestling, we got this.
If you want to see this type of wrestling, this in this one, everyone is like, it's, it takes like the cage and it's MMA like, this one. All chairs, all of the time. Exactly. Sure.
Why not? Why not? What about slam ball? What about slam ball?
What about slam ball? What about slam ball? Yeah. Oh, they're busy with the XFL.
So maybe once that takes on, yeah, that's what they're all stuck in the mix. Yeah. We didn't get a team. We don't need to have good.
There's no San Francisco slam or XFL team. No, yeah. We lost. There was last time.
Yeah. And it didn't work out. So what's the closest thing we got? Who are we latching on to?
Oh, hey, is there a Las Vegas team? I think there's a Vegas team. It's got to be there would be there has to be another LA team. Sleezy fucking football.
Oh, my God. Can't wait. Anyway, hi, the exit for extreme. Oh, okay.
Oh, wait a minute. I'm back on board now. I thought it was something completely different. Xerox.
Yeah. It was a sponsor. No, no, no. Standing for the anthem.
Is that what it stands for? Oh, God. You guys can't tell that a lot of video. Come out here.
Yeah. So yeah, I don't know. I just I saw that Janet gone to that show and had to. It was good.
It was good time. Talk a little bit about how much it's going to a wrestling show running up. It depends like a day of snacks and stuff to how much for the whole night. Okay.
So here was my problem. For whatever reason, the San Jose Arena, there was no people coming to through the aisle selling concandier lemonade or ice cream. And then it was just where we were sitting with my friends. We were kind of like crammed into an aisle that'd be super awkward.
And I hate doing the thing. We're getting up midway through the show was like, Oh, excuse me. Sorry. Oh, hey, thank you.
Cool. We're just standing and climbing over people. Yeah. So we didn't get a snack the whole time.
Okay. You know, we also came late. So I didn't want to miss any more of the show. But there was no one, no concession stand workers just selling anything weird.
That was that was my biggest beef. Even they were bored. They were just like, like, I'm trying to think of they normally do that at wrestling shows. If there are people walking, I guess, I don't go long since I've been to a show.
Yeah. In Oakland, like they'll be like HRO cock candy. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. And I've been to San Jose Arena. They've had concession stand workers before. Yeah.
It's funny. I just realized this weekend, while Jan was watching wrestling, I also went and saw a show featuring lots of shirtless glistening men doing flips. Yeah. On top of each other.
And how was the storyline? Actually, unfollowable. Right. Okay.
Yeah. Well, then I saw Cirque du Soleil. I saw the new Cirque du Soleil. I don't want to talk a lot about it.
Who is the face of Cirque du Soleil? I don't want to just spoil it. It's ninja. The main dude that the plot revolved around looked exactly like ninja.
And he had the blue hair. He had people chasing him around with cell phones. Like a lot of the plot was about him trying to escape away from people with cell phones and then also be a magazine. Okay.
The magazine is cool. I don't know why ninja was the Cirque du Soleil guy. I don't feel like there was an action on purpose. Yeah.
But he fucking looked just and they were all chasing around with cell phones wanting selfies with them. Selfies are bad. Selfies are bad. Selfies are bad.
I mean, Cirque du Soleil. I can. That's a take. I don't know.
I'm largely in different about selfies. Whether chairs at Cirque du Soleil, like the performance. Yeah. There were some chair stunts.
They were the coolest. The one was like, they had this big trampoline that they would spin around and have people jump and wall run. There's a lot of wall running. Okay.
So straight up parkour. All right. That was pretty cool. I mean, we want to put some more time fall.
Great. Fine falls back and Cirque du Soleil did it. And we even had people walking up and down trying to sell a snack. So weird.
I mean, it needs to learn a thing or two. I got up. They had a, they have, this is the first time I've ever seen these, but hot cans. Okay.
It was just like a little, you know, the thing next time you're hot can. So my hot cans are burning. Okay. You know, the thing that's like safe way between the aisles that have the Coke's and Mountain Dew's and them.
So you can grab them cold. Yeah. Yeah. Sure.
So they had that, but it was hot. It was hot and there were cans of coffee inside that were hot, hot cans of coffee. I like this. And I, I liked it too after I realized what it was, because I reached in.
I'm like, Oh, nice, nice coffee. And I just reached in. They just really have a side on that. Cause it's even like blue on the inside.
It looks exactly like one of those things, but it's hot. It needs to be red. You're simple for the shit is hot. Or explosive.
Or you can shut that. It would do something. I don't know. I mean, something's got to keep it hot.
Right. It's got to be a propane tank somewhere. See, I thought you were going to say that someone was walking around the aisle, selling soup with like some hot cans, like just pouring out some chili. Yeah.
Yeah. Bring your own bread ball. I'm more like soup to so late. I'm fucking in.
Oh my God. So what was the name of this circus? So they show vault vault vault. Okay.
All right. Well, I saw Mr. and I saw. Oh, oh, oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah. The start of search displays. Oh, I saw in the blue man group. Those are those are all the shows I saw of that caliber.
All of them, because the video game industry used for a lot of events. Oh, sure. I saw a lot of shows. I tweeted this out, but it really was just the human version of Tetris Effect.
The songs that were playing were straight out of like, it was just some like world music. We got together, man. To each other. I'm like, oh, wait, okay.
Hot. How much actual fucking was there during the show backstage? I guarantee you, there was some fucking going on. There was some tension there between those, especially there was like these two guys who were just like flipping around on strings.
I don't know what happened, man. I kind of just let, let it all wash over you. For sure. Hot.
Just like the year in video games, which is damn near over. Yeah. Not a lot of new releases. Went out with a bang though.
Yeah, it seems like there was a pile of stuff here. You've been playing a little bit of below. Have you not? A tiny, tiny bit.
I can't really speak to it too much. I know Brad's been playing about it. They're going to record a quick look of it out east this week. Yeah, look forward to that.
Because yeah, I've actually been playing more EDF than EDF. EDF 5. It's a brand new one. Yeah, it's a familiar recipe.
They keep going back to it, but they changed it around some ingredients. Did they make it good this time? Goddamn it. It's so good.
Every time. I don't know what you're talking about. I really like EDF. So yeah, this is another, we're shooting aliens.
We're shooting bugs and stuff. It's very much like the hunger system. You know, how often do I have to respect my core survival elements? No, yeah.
No, there's not at all. You literally just shoot everything. It's kind of so nice. It's kind of what I need in my life right now.
I feel like the last few EDF games, it's just like, you know, it's can't be, right? I mean, it's like totally all the singing and the bug is don't really animate well. Like the battle made. Yeah, you don't need them to.
So yeah, they're really embracing it this time. And I don't know if it's too, it's detriment or not, but like it's almost too over the top campy, regardless. Yeah, like they're doing the sci-fi music. That kind of stuff.
Yeah. Yep. And so they've gotten rid of a lot of the giant robots and replaced them with frogs, which is actually kind of cool because they're like bipedal frogs. Okay.
And you can blow off their limbs and shit and you can blow off their fucking legs. They'll still keep shooting at you. They don't give a shit. The frogs are holding guns.
Yeah, frogs are holding guns and shit. It's pretty rad. How is that more? How is it more efficient to design your killing machine, like a frog rather than a human?
Are they machines? Are they just legit giant frogs? Okay. I think that's cool.
Okay. So genetically modified giant frogs. Yeah, I'm actually getting kind of a through line with the storyline, you know, in between all the chatter of, you know, it's like, I'll lay down my life for the EDF. And some other guy going, cool.
Or it's like, wait, why did you join EDF? And the other guy's like, for love. That's frog love. Frog love.
Wait, is this because of the fluoride that they put in the water? Is this what's happening to the frogs? Probably. Okay.
So they actually make reference to that movie, Signs and why would the aliens come to a planet that's like mostly full of water, right? So these aliens, sorry to spoil EDF for you, but they're allergic to air pollution. So, yeah, so we have to pollute the air to get the aliens out. So like, yeah, we have to break the machine there.
It's like, you know, horrible smog and shit. It's like, we take them down to LA and, you know, that's where we'll have our last stand or something. I don't know, man. This fucking EDF.
Okay. How's the shooting? Shooting is not as good. Actually, yeah, there's a lot of weapons where you would, like in previous games, you would just hold down the button and would repeatedly, you know, shoot.
Yeah. Now it's like a, with a lot of the weapons, you hold it in and it'll actually charge when you release, then it shoots and it doesn't feel as good. Yeah. So it's like, if you've got like a, like a focused laser or something like that, you would, and now you would hold it down and then release.
And then it just goes for a while. And it's actually not really all that satisfying. Yeah. So that's kind of a bummer.
But I'm liking the frogs. Yeah. For sure. I'm good.
I like the frogs. There's big aliens that you like a bipedal, like the gray aliens, under where I'm like, halo armor and shit like that. So we've got some new types of aliens to shoot our guns at. And the quips are the best that they've ever been.
And that's saying a lot. Yeah. All right. It's still fucking EDF.
If I've never played an EDF and I want to get in, is there a certain place you'd recommend starting them or should I just jump in here? Anyway, I think. Yeah. Post wing diver, I think.
Okay. Let's just say like that was the thing. The last couple of games have been like, hey, there's a character class that flies around all crazy. Yeah.
Is that still? Yeah. That's still the case. So that's the four types of aerator, which is like, you know, calling in tanks and shit like that.
Also calling it air strikes, regular ass ranger, which is just a soldier access to a lot of different weapons. Fencer, which is a big burly kind of buff guy. Yeah. And then wing diver, which is just like fucking flying around like an insect and shoot and all kinds of like energy weapons.
Okay. Is there a local go up in this? Yeah. This split screen.
Actually, yeah, student, you have two persons with three and a thing. Yeah. I think just four player on say four player online. I haven't tried the online.
Yeah. But I think we might try and do that for the, uh, yeah, I was playing some of it as well. So man, dude, it's been super therapeutic. Just Oh my God.
I need, I need a video game. Ask video game. I was, I played a little more red that online couldn't do it. I was trying to play some other things, couldn't do it.
I almost downloaded Spyro just because I was like, what's something that's so light and I could just pick up and not really think about maybe watch some TV while I do it. This sounds like it could be a good choice for that. Yeah. Yeah.
You can, you can pay zero attention. And yeah, kind of like a clicker in that respect. Now I'm in. I don't know.
I mean, yeah, I just never, I'll try this one out. I feel like I try them all out. It's just never worked for me. Yeah, the shooting has never been good enough, even back when it was a lot of regular ass weapons and this charge shot stuff doesn't sound like.
Yeah, I don't appreciate that. But once you do find like a really good weapon, like I've got a really good homing weapon and it's, it just fires off a continuous stream of missiles and it's so satisfying just like holding down the button and just watching this, this line of missiles just like courts through through the air and into the face of a, you know, bipedal frog. All right. There's nothing to do that.
Yeah, it's totally something to do that for sure. I can't, I can't say enough about the quips. They're really, really good this time. All right.
We'll see it in our quick look. It's a roll. Quiplash. That's, that's about it.
Yeah. Ben, you're playing the other? You said, you're trying to write it online. It's still playing into the breach.
Yeah. Okay. Into the breach over lunch. I actually loaded up destiny because I wanted to jump back in.
I was like, okay, now's a good time to check out forsaken. I started on a little bit. I played a little bit over the weekend myself. So as somebody who hasn't loaded it up since that first raid dropped.
Okay. So you haven't even touched any of the DLC at all? Anything. I open it up, click through like 20 screens of here's all this shit.
Here's the Christmas shit. Here's the, you've, you've done two of these, like, they're like challenges. Yeah. There's a whole new tribe system in there, all that stuff.
And then I got to the overworld map and there was like three new planets and like a million new symbols. And I sat there and I, I was like, a little worried before I even opened up because I'm like, I don't really remember the loop. Like once I get in and I'll remember it, I'll come back to me. I'm sure.
But like, I don't know where to start. And then it was completely fucking different from top to bottom. Like there's the, the little gold symbols by every place. Yeah.
Those are like your, those are like your dailies and weekly. Okay. There's a thing on Mars that it costs, it says I should be 310 light to do. That's probably the next like story DLC.
Okay. That's probably the first, uh, there's the forsaken corner and it wants me to buy forsaken, but I wasn't ready to make that commitment. Yeah. I just had like, I was like, I was like, pardon me was like, okay, just jump into a planet and start shooting things.
And then you'll eventually figure it out. But then I was even too intimidated to do that. There's, there's no onboarding for destiny. Anything, you know, so that there's that was that you pull L2 and it slides out the little like, Hey, here's the shit.
Oh, right. Okay. That stuff is still good. Okay.
Uh, for at least like figuring out that stuff, though, then you have the powerful to your quest, the daily's a weeklies, all that sort of stuff. But that's the one thing I was forgetting. Yeah. If you pull out that side tab that tells you what to do, it'll still tell you what to do.
Uh, it'll pick you up where you left off. But then even then it's still stuff like, hey, a new season has started. So visit the vendor that sells things for real money to get like your free taste. Like I had to hopefully buy some silver and it's like, I have a quest on the, on the traveler.
Yeah, the social area of the hub. Yeah. Um, and they're all like, here's a thing, but also there's this other thing that you should probably buy. Yeah.
Yeah. And then even, there's competitive emotes. There's just so much stuff that I was like, ah, God, I jumped in over the weekends. Just I loaded up over the weekend and had a similar experience.
And I played all that. I played up through Forsaken. Yeah. And so the Black Armory is the thing that launched more recently and then the Christmas events.
So I got like the intro of that Christmas event, a thing saying, hey, it's season five or whatever the fuck season it is. And so there's new emotes. And as another, it's another season of valor, earn your rank up and all the stuff to check that you're never going to touch. I'm like, all right, whatever, I'm never going to touch it.
I made some cookies and delivered them to the guy for the Christmas thing. And then it was like, all right, do that 20 more times. I'm good. I'm good.
Oh, no. And I went to the Black Armory and got a cut scene and then I gave me an item that I think will turn into a gun if I do a bunch of other stuff. And then I was like, I'm good and didn't actually do anything. But yeah, I don't know.
I think I will dive back in like loading it up getting that that music again, the visuals, there was something to coming back to destiny after a long break that, you know, you hear people talk about destiny and it's just like, Oh, God, you know, you're talking, let's just shooting. Like, what are you going to really? But it is an experience. That game does like have a powerfulness to it to like when you all that up, you're like, Oh, shit, this is made by some people who know what they're doing and have some money.
It's some good shit. It's just yeah, like it never felt like a game that was worth playing every day. And also now that I've taken a big break from it, it's hard to get back in. So it's this weird middle ground of like, you should probably play it once a week or something if you're going to stick with it.
But I didn't do that. Now here I am at 517. I think is where I got up to. Yeah, I'll blaze through all the DLC probably and then just call it.
I might even check out the new Black Armory stuff. I heard that's like end game focused and that's really in there for the people that's kind of are on the daily grind. But I guess the one of the changes they made if I was reading it right was that they made it easier to like more good shit will drop if you're below a certain level to try to get you into that range, which could be good, but I still have my mighty multi tool to equip. That's so out of the man.
That's like season two. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know. I like Destiny Jan, you play anything. Had a one rating over the weekend.
Pokemon go, still a thing. It's used to be a thing, unfortunately. So even when the weather is foul, you're still outside. They had a weekend event to, they had special raid bosses.
You could catch either Lugia or Ho-oh. And man, my experience with like me. Ho-oh-oh-oh. My experience meeting just random people and just raiding with them is always like hit or miss.
Sometimes people will be super cool and like super nice everyone's friendly. But because there were so many Lugia raids going on today, people were playing like, hey, you're going to go to this one? You're going to go to that one next. And then I'd ask like a couple dudes that I had seen before kind of like just knew them by face.
