 Ohhhh it's a big day today
 I'm so excited. I am too man
 I really am
 Uh, I'm ready. I got everything downloaded. I've got my shit all good to go.
 Like this is the first league I prepared for
 without
 like basically I actually
 you know I got everything ready. You know, before the day it happened.
 So yeah, I'm excited.
 I got the download ready.
 I got everything good to go man.
 Did you do your own banner?
 No, if I did it would have been worse man.
 Update loot filter?
 Filter blade wasn't updated last night so I wasn't able to do it.
 Or I would've...
 It's live now. I'll probably do it before
 I get started into everything
 But yeah. I just got done
 I'm on Twitch, what's up? Yeah
 I'm chillin' man! I am good
 Good afternoon How Yeah, uh
 how are you today? I'm good man
 As i said
 I stayed up kinda late last night
 I really shouldn't have done that but
 um, y'know I was just fucking around doing different stuff
 and uh, that's pretty much it.
 Yeah, what's the build I'm gonna run?
 Imma do a minion build.
 Imma go all the way in man, absolutely!
 Looking forward to you going rank 1 and beating Quinn in PoE?
 I feel like he'll end up beating himself,
 I've watched his clips for a long time man.
 Like absolutely,
 I know how it goes.
 Who's that last night grinding New World? Dude, Absolutely, I know how it goes.
 Who's up last night grinding New World? Dude, I haven't played New World!
 When was the last time I played New World?
 That's a good question.
 New World...
 Where is it?
 What did I last get into it?
 November 8th, 2023.
 So,
 It's been almost an entire year Since I played New World.
 That's weird man
 Because like
 I feel like um
 You know
 I don't feel like
 I really haven't
 not wanted to play it.
 I just uh
 you know
 been doing other shit man
 that's it
 Are you following a build guide?
 Uh
 Not one for one
 Like
 I just usually find a talent tree somebody has,
 and then I just kind of work off of that
 because I don't want to have to plan out the talent tree
 inside of the league.
 But yeah.
 When are you pulling for Chang Li and doing her story?
 Oh, in Wuthering Waves
 I don't know
 Like, I don't know if I want to do that on stream or not
 I've had so many other things I've had to do
 I don't know if people really want to see that a whole lot
 But yeah I haven't really played Wuthering see that a whole lot. But yeah, I haven't really played
 Wuthering Waves a whole lot in the past few days.
 I got to Union
 level 60.
 I maxed everything out.
 I got all the way up because i i got to like the level five on all the holograms
 because i was gonna do the sixes on stream and uh you know i just haven't really gotten around
 to it man well then this is boring as shit it's a great game i just haven't really gotten around to it, man. Well, anyway, this is boring as shit.
 It's a great game.
 I just haven't really played it a whole lot.
 That's it?
 What about Xenolus on Zero?
 I have not played Xenolus on Zero ever since...
 Well, I logged on and I played it for 30 minutes and then I went to bed
 I feel like it's better than i've seen a lot of asmr videos. I've never seen something better than that
 I'll tell you something
 Oh my god!
 It's not even really that bad,
 I just haven't felt like playing it man
 That's it? New banner came out?
 I bet it did!
 What are your thoughts on Deadpool and Wolverine movie? I was talking to my dad after I ended
 my stream yesterday. This is one of the reasons
 why I ended earlier yesterday too
 is my dad was like, oh we should
 get dinner this week and I was like yeah for sure
 and so I was like we should do this the day before PoE League comes
 out because I'm going to be fucking busy right?
 So uh...we went
 my dad and I got barbecue last night
 that was good
 he got the..I what i watch couple movies with
 them
 because uh... about that movie uh...
 but you have had civil war moving and then use some of our over in a deadpool
 movie and uh...
 yeah like we used to watch movies
 like my dad would take me
 to the movie theaters.
 It's like that's what we would do
 on Saturdays, right?
 Because I would usually hang out
 with him on Saturdays growing up, right?
 So yeah. It was so good. Absolutely.
 Yeah, we get... I remember we would get Wendy's
 and then we'd go to the movies. That's what it was.
 Marvel's mostly woke.
 Marvel... I'm gonna be real
 Marvel the Thanos Infinity War saga
 Fucking amazing
 I loved it
 From Iron Man 1 to Endgame
 Amazing Fucking cinema Iron Man 1 to Endgame, amazing fucking cinema.
 Absolutely peak superhero cinema. After that nobody cares, who cares?
 The only character I really like, honestly is Ben
 as uh...I was gonna say Benedict Cumberbatch
 but it's the fuckin' Doctor Strange
 It's just cause I like the actor
 to be honest. Like- and I
 think he's interesting and cool Other than that. I could give less no less about fuck bad
 Yeah, Deadpool. I feel like I've seen enough dead pool you know
 My blockbuster yeah, he's handsome. He's a great guy
 I've watched him ever since Sherlock and so anytime he's in the movie...
 You know we played Khan in Star Trek?
 Perfect! Amazing!
 So yeah that's the way I see it.
 Are you ready to dominate this league?
 Absolutely. Sure off is so good. Yeah with Martin Freeman. Yeah
 you gonna watch June 2?
 I haven't watched June 2 yet. I've watched
 June 1. I haven't seen the second one though
 but uh..one day I will. Deadpool
 Wolverine was amazing. I bet it will be
 hmmm
 Wasn't a fan of Marvel movies but I feel like they're better than the DC movies.
 I was actually talking to him about that last night.
 I think the reason why DC movies...
 Personally, I think we had one good DC movie.
 Aquaman.
 Aquaman I think was objectively awesome.
 I loved it,
 I watched in movie theaters with like my girlfriend at the time
 It was great.
 Outside of that
 I feel like
 I would say Man of Steel was as good
 as it could be but
 you know, I just think Superman is a boring premise
 and I don't think they know how to tell the story.
 Alright, I like Man of Steel. Yeah,
 I know a lot of people liked it.
 I've never liked Superman as a hero
 to be honest.
 I've always thought he was a boring character. So yeah.
 I disagree. Aquaman
 wasn't that great? Yeah, well to me I thought it was
 great. I liked it a lot. But
 uh, yeah. Superman's just
 too OP. Well the the problem with DC is that
 The enemies in DC
 Are so...
 The power scaling is so high
 That it's not personal
 Right? Like, Thanos is really strong
 but Darkseid versus
 Thanos... It's not even
 close. Even with the
 Infinity Gauntlet, it's-it's not even remotely
 close. Like it just... They're too strong
 or too powerful, right? And it's the same problem
 with the Celestials in Marvel.
 The scope of it and scale of it is
 incomprehensible and it's not interesting.
 That's why I think things like the boys is interesting too, right?
 Because like the characters aren't like
 you know uh planetary level god mode destruction powerful
 And uh I think that makes it more compelling
 Darkseid's way to strong
 He is!
 You gonna try the Marvel game out at all?
 Oh, I saw that came out recently, but uh...I don't know when I will. I'm not sure.
 I don't know DC, but I-I don't know a single enemy other than the Batman ones.
 Well like here's his reality.
 Like everybody knows like there were two cartoon shows that had no business being as good as they were.
 Number one is the Star Wars Clone Wars, number
 two is the Justice League from the 90s
 The show was
 fucking amazing! It was
 so good! Insanely good.
 Thundercats? I watched that, but like
 didn't really get into it the same way I did with
 all of the other shit. But yeah, Batman
 animated series? Yeah. Well, I mean
 that kind of goes into the whole thing. Like the DC animated shows
 right? Those were so good.
 I don't know how they got so good. What the fuck happened?
 Yeah.
 Experiment X-Men from the 90s? I watched X-Men
 from the 90s back in the day, I did get into that a lot
 Would I have to see a Doctor Doom in a movie?
 I
 I don't
 think that they can
 do him
 Yeah, I'm gonna be honest, like they they can do him.
 Yeah,
 I'm gonna be honest,
 like,
 they tried to do him,
 right?
 Before?
 Uh,
 I don't know if they can.
 Like,
 I think that,
 like... Because Doctor Doom is,
 like,
 kind of a complex character
 and so,
 uh,
 you'd have to have like a really
 you'd need an actor
 that, like, is
 passionate about it
 on like a super high
 level.
 Yeah, they tried twice
 exactly.
 Yeah.
 And it's every time
 it's just super surface
 level.
 Right.
 So yeah. Fantastic 4
 with Alba not bad. Yeah, for sure.
 What is this here?
 Weebs 1 GG. Oh boy.
 What is this?
 I'm sure this is probably some kind what was the
 is this is a
 I don't even know but let's just look at it and let's see what it is
 I have no idea. Just a minute...
 Okay
 The Olympics
 421ABC7 Wow.
 Honkai Star Rail sponsored The Future Is Now?
 I guess it is, man.
 Holy shit.
 Bro, like...
 It's like you had the anime girls at that dodgers game you've got honkai star rail on
 the olympics man i don't know what to say. This is getting kind of scary.
 Yeah, we're in the best timeline? Well, we're in a certain timeline,
 I'll tell you that! There's no way the IPC bought out
 the Olympics.
 I guess so man! Holy fucking shit!
 This is insane!
 Yeah, I don't even know what to say.
 Uh, we're living in a simulation?
 Yeah, it's- I mean like well
 the thing is the games are so influential and they're so popular
 Now
 And it's crazy how
 Because if you really take a step back with Honkai Star Rail
 You'd realize that
 There were a lot of things about Honkai Star Rail
 that are actually really good.
 Like, for example, nothing in the game plays badly.
 And I know this might seem like it doesn't matter,
 but I think what makes the biggest difference
 is that
 attacking an enemy and going
 into combat, animations,
 everything in the game flows together
 absolutely perfectly. The story
 is not dog shit,
 okay? Now it's still
 an anime gacha game
 storyline and it's not as good
 as something like Metal Gear Solid but at the same time it's not as good as something like Metal Gear Solid,
 but at the same time,
 It's pretty good. And I would even say
 Pinnaconi was actually good!
 It was good objectively.
 It's not good for a gacha game
 or it's not good for a gotcha game, or it's not good for a pay to win phone game.
 But just objectively I think it's good.
 And so yeah, Pinnacle Honey was epic, yes it was.
 Is that nothing plays badly is another great thing, right?
 And something to be expected.
 No no no!
 What you don't understand is that
 the majority of games back in the day
 did not play well.
 Most games do not play well and they never did.
 It's not like we had some sort of golden era
 Of all the-all of the games play well
 No no no
 Even in Super Nintendo N64 days
 There were so many games that played like absolute
 shit. But the difference was we don't remember them anymore because they
 were forgotten and just garbage. That's why every time people come up with examples
 of bad games that don't play well they're always the
 like really contemporary examples or like ones that were like legendary failures like superman 64
 or like et on atari so like outside of that, almost all these other games
 I mean let's be real guys
 they just get forgotten. Nobody
 gives a shit at all. They play it
 once or twice and you're like this doesn't play very well
 Like for example, I'll give you one example.
 The Lord of the Rings game for
 the first movie was just
 bad. It was a bad game. It wasn't very good.
 And nobody remembers it.
 Nobody talks about that anymore, but guess what happens?
 You know, everybody talks about Return
 of the King. Everybody talks
 about fucking The Two Towers even
 which I think that Return of the King was way better
 than that in a second movie game.
 But yeah, Jotaro's Rock, it was pretty good, I would say.
 Yeah, it was pretty good.
 And Twilight Princess with Motion Tech in 2006 played amazing?
 Yeah, exactly.
 But that's also Legend of Zelda.
 And Tears of the Kingdom now plays amazing right? I've seen the gameplay it's great! And so...
 I think that really it's always been like this where most games are bad.
 Return of the King was awesome. Dude I'll never forget, but we would play it on Xbox
 at Cody and Jeff's house. And we would come over
 and uh...I think we could have everybody playing at the same time or some shit.
 Right? Because I remember everybody had a controller.
 It was like me, Cody Jeff, and Cameron.
 We would get into it, man.
 Yeah, Third Age was a great RPG as well.
 Yeah, yeah.
 I mean,
 Amazon is coming out with
 a Lord of the Rings MMO and
 I have asked two separate people at Amazon
 for information about this MMO
 ... about this MMO? We'll see what happens, right? Like they have not told
 me anything. They said they'll tell me something if I sign
 an NDA but I don't want to do that
 because I want to tell you guys so yes, I don't want to do that because I want to tell you guys. So yes,
 I don't know anything about it yet,
 but all I know... Didn't they cancel it?
 So that's really interesting you ask that
 because yes and no.
 They did actually cancel the game originally,
 and this was in like 2020, I think.
 And then they...
 And I think this is a problem.
 I think the reason why they canceled it
 is because it was being done
 in a partnership with the Chinese studio,
 and their relationship fell apart or something like that.
 That's what kind of felt like to me.
 And they're actually making...
 No, they're making another game.
 They stopped making one Lord of the Rings MMO,
 and now they're making another Lord of the Rings MMO, and now they're making another Lord of the Rings MMO.
 So with their flawless track record
 of releasing incredible games like
 Lost Ark, New World, and
 not Tower of Fantasy.
 They should do that one too, actually.
 It's a good idea.
 And fucking what's the new one?
 Throne of Liberty. Yeah.
 What more do they need than another MMO? You know, another Amazon
 MMO. I don't know what to say man
 They're reshooting the game like
 they have to reshoot shows? Yeah that's what I think so
 Why'd you send a Riot MMO and DA
 then?
 Because I got to go there and everything
 like if i got to go the Amazon studios
 and see all this stuff for The War of
 the Rings MMO, I'd do that for sure but
 not just you know it's like I went
 to the studio and everything for that.
 So it was a little bit different.
 So yeah.
 You saw the Echo announcement for Savage?
 No, I didn't see any of that.
 I'm assuming that's your Final Fantasy.
 But I don't know.
 Are you going to be trying SOD Phase 4 at all?
 I have heard nothing good
 at all,
 at all about Season of Discovery
 Phase 4. Not a single thing.
 It's sad, actually.
 I wonder why?
 They're reworking New World Store for the second time
 it's hilarious.
 I hope they finally get it right. I really like New World, I think it's got a lot of good ideas.
 AGS fuck Blue Protocol?
 It's end-of-service before
 even being released?
 Well, Blue Protocol...
 The thing is that game it's really sad
 because like blue
 protocol had a lot of
 potential but they just
 uh,
 the developers.
 I think that the problem is that
 over in like, I feel like in the east
 they don't really have as much concern
 with loading screens and escapism
 as I think players in the west do.
 I don't think they care about it as much because i feel like games in
 the east are much more willing to have a lot of loading screens for example like i know that sounds
 weird but i feel like that's actually true. And invisible walls
 loading screens, right? Yeah, because to me
 as a Western player, I feel
 like that's very immersion-breaking and
 it's very annoying, but I don't think that they
 see it the same way. I don't know why, I don't know if I'm even
 right about this, but that's just my perception
 and so uh, the problem is
 that Blue Protocol is just really not
 that deep or that interesting of a game
 and it's sad because I was excited for that
 game for three years, but I played the beta
 for it and it was okay,
 but it really didn't leave me with any sort of
 desire to look forward to it coming out.
 Like, and even in comparison like New World
 dude you remember me and McConnell and everybody we were so
 excited about New World. We were fucking ready to play! And then
 obviously game comes out it wasn't really as good
 as we thought but like with
 Throne of Liberty and Blue Protocol I don't even feel like
 I have that enthusiasm for the release
 You know? Like
 That's it
 Would you ever play Elder Scrolls Online?
 I played it just a little bit but
 I didn't really like
 it that much to be honest.
 Not gonna lie, I doubt Amazon MMO will beat
 20 years Lord of the Rings rings yeah that's probably true actually uh blizzard
 after five years of gaslighting community into overwatch 2 being a completely new game doing
 anything as new ways to monetization overwatch two is officially bringing 6v6 back
 they should rename it and call it Overwatch Classic. Or Classic Overwatch, you know what I mean? Not officially they're doing a test of it
 It's not 100% going in the main game
 The tests will determine if the game should permanently go back
 to the old format. I personally
 I mean, I kind of like
 the 5v5 format because I felt
 like I could make more plays as an individual.
 But, I think that also... Like, I'm not really a big Overwatch player.
 My friend Jeff for example, he's literally top 500
 in Overwatch and uh, I don't, like he played
 the fuck out of that game and
 I know Cody has gotten pretty high in the game
 too and so
 I don't know, I'd probably really just listen
 to them right? They know it better than i do but people forget
 the big argument from 5v5 was visual clutter of 6 v6 well the problem really is that overwatch
 has too many uh like i think that for an example overwatch would be in immediately a better game if
 you didn't have like here's your screen and like if you're getting shot
 it's like this. Why can't I turn this off? It's so annoying! Like I don't want to have that on my screen. It's obnoxious! Yeah and it puts like
 the yellow and blue shit on you...yeah, I don't want that. And again
 you should be able turn it on. It's, like you should be able to turn it on.
 It's not like you should delete it, but I should have the option to turn it off.
 It's fucking annoying.
 It gives me like a headache playing the game.
 Yeah, it takes up too much of the screen.
 It does.
 It's awful.
 I hate it. You become blind to it after a while? Yeah, it takes up too much of the screen. It does! It's awful, I hate it.
 You become blind to it after a while?
 Yeah, but like...
 The after-a-while is going to stop a lot of people.
 It's gonna be a filter, right?
 We play PoE later when it releases?
 Uh, I don't know, man.
 I am awake for the league start.
 I'm wearing a shirt that says Path of Exile.
 It says Path of Exile League in the title.
 I don't know.
 I mean, hey, who knows?
 Who knows?
 Anything could happen, right guys?
 Anything could happen.
 Yeah, no, we're going to play Honkai Star Rail today.
 No, yeah.
 The amount of settings for all those top 500 guys changed to
 visual transform and decoder the screen is wild?
 Yeah, I think there's too much visual
 noise in Overwatch. I think that's a huge
 problem. Fast food served the right way what's this That was funny.
 Because I was thinking, like, bro...
 I was like, this is nasty, bro. Like, they're gonna
 be some fat ass that wants this.
 But, yeah, okay. It's funny.
 And what build do you leak?
 Starting and why does it bleed? I don't want to play Bleed. I'm going to play
 Minions. Yeah, I'm going to do minions yeah i'm gonna do minions this time man
 no check the oil nuclear fundament bro yeah no i know that i i know all about it china is
 preparing for covid 2024. oh wow they're bringing it back that's great i love the lockdowns
 there are my favorite thing because i never had to do anything
 and i never had to see anybody nobody would ever like the abro like this is great
 and um mmm mmm
 Jesus
 I don't have a problem with this,
 but the fact that people are using
 their chopsticks and getting
 in there with it...
 See, if you had
 a cup and you would just take it from the cup and you would
 Put it in the bowl. It would be fucking fine
 But like you got some cross
 Contamination there right because
 People are sharing germs doing it that way
 It's outside bro? Well I know,
 but like that's not even what would bother me.
 So I mean some bird
 shits in it you just eat around the shit
 But like uh, you know
 this is different
 Imagine birds flying over it? Yeah maybe they don't have Like, you know, this is different.
 Imagine birds flying over it? Yeah, maybe they don't have any, but
 are there birds in China or did they get rid
 of birds? Do they have
 birds over there?
 There's no birds? Yeah, because I'm thinking about it.
 I've never seen a single bird in China ever.
 So they just don't have them. Damn that's crazy wow!
 Yeah cause we got a lot of birds over here
 They're illegal?
 Shit okay
 But yeah anyway the thing is like
 I would have no problem with something like this but
 The fact they're going in there
 like this, that's something special man. I would not do
 that. That is promoting racism? Get the fuck out of here. Shut up.
 Shut up. What's this here? What y'all rate out of 10? W set up ignore my bird oh shit damn that's a big
 one god damn God damn!
 That's a turkey, yeah bro.
 Like you can tell they're turkeys because they got that dick nose.
 Oh yes, big boy's a big boy! Yes!
 Look at him!
 Well, apparently these things
 are aggressive. I watched some videos before
 about these things. They go and attack
 people, and people fucking hate these things man!
 Like yeah they're actually super aggressive
 This used to be a velociraptor
 And so, you know like
 Kind of fell off a bit, right?
 But yeah.
 Great setup, man.
 No, you can own one of these things?
 Yeah, you just go buy one.
 Just go get a turkey.
 No, but like the thing is
 I feel like you
 probably don't want to have a turkey as a pet man
 and I feel like that'd just be annoying
 Yeah birds fell off frozen
 yeah you buy one of course cockatrice bro like why didn't they put
 those in a dragon's dogma too like that's so dumb like Why didn't they not have those?
 What the fuck?
 Those were so cool!
 Sleep on the trees, yeah.
 Maybe in the DLC... That takes too long.
 What's this?
 Oh my god.
 Somebody actually fixed
 an Apple product on their own?
 I guess,
 he has to go to jail for that or something, right?
 Yeah, it must be.
 So this is a MacBook Pro that Apple the Apple store said would cost $1,200
 to fix and wasn't worth doing all right let's take a look and
 see if that's true so you can see the apple logo there watch if i take
 the light and i put it through there you'll actually be able to see everything on the
 screen so this is my microscope light and when i put it right through here yeah i can see
 that you can see that there's a cursor there and then it's moving so most of the screen is working
 properly it's just that the backlight is working right this could be either due to a
 bad screen a bad motherboard bad cable but we'll figure that out once we open it up Alright, so let's take a look on the inside of this.
 Now, this is where the screen
 is going to connect to the computer.
 So the first thing I want to do is examine that area of it
 to see what it looks like.
 See the pin that's sticking out?
 That pin is actually most likely the pin for the backlight.
 It's messed up!
 As you can see, it's probably not making contact because it's bent outwards.
 And I got my set of tweezers over here and I'm just going to try to push that
 back into the slot and try to get it back into its groove so that when i re-plug in
 the connector, it'll work. At the Apple store they suggested this was water damage? Well you
 can see that there are water indicators that have turned red.
 So that's why they got the idea and thereby the battery.
 This is a water indicator
 These turn red when they see liquid
 However, these don't only turn red when they see liquid. However, the thing here is that these
 only turn red when they see liquid. They also turn red anytime there's humidity.
 So if you have this in a very humid room all of these sensors will turn even
 if you never spilled liquid on the machine.
 Alright, so let's plug this back in and hope for the best!
 As you can see we've got an apple and we have a light so it's fixed yeah now that took you like one
 and a half minutes maybe so if i walked in off the street
 with this problem what would you charge to for the repair
 you just did if somebody wanted me to just bend the pin back,
 I wouldn't charge them for that.
 I'd say,
 I'm going to rework your original cable
 That may not last long term but here it's free
 if they want us to replace the cable
 depending on the model anywhere from 75 to 150
 Depending on the difficulty of opening that model.
 But something like this we wouldn't charge for
 And 99% of the time just bending the pin back
 It'll allow it to last until the end of the life of a computer
 apple's got to shut him down
 they gotta shut this down quick.
 Bro, if people find out about this...
 It's going to be bad.
 It's gonna be real bad!
 Yeah they already tried though? I bet they did! Yeah, they're on their way exactly... No, this is crazy like
 I didn't even know about the whole right to repair shit
 Like I can't even... How's that
 even real, man? Like, what the
 fuck are you talking about?
 He's been doing this for a long time and it's getting increasingly difficult
 for him to do his job. They're making it more and more impossible
 to get the parts he needs because Apple doesn't want him,
 and people like him fixing their computers this cheaply.
 He's a strong advocate for consumers' rights
 to get their equipment repaired where they want
 so they don't have to pay $1,200 for something like this.
 How is this even a question?
 That's what I'm curious about
 how is it even a question
 that you can't make and buy
 and use a component in an Apple product.
 Like, what the fuck are you talking
 about? Free market? It's not!
 That's the crazy thing, is
 that if it was a free market,
 you would have right to repair.
 The reason why you don't have the right to repair is because Apple can legally stop
 you from doing it.
 That's the reason! It's not like it's some kind of other random
 thing, it's because they have these
 copyrights and these rules
 and these trademarks, not trademarks but mainly
 copyrights and patents on these systems
 and then nobody can do anything about it.
 So no! It's actually... Guys I really want people to understand this
 most of the bad things that come out of a free market
 in our society now
 is due to the fact that the market was free
 somebody cornered it and then they pulled
 the ladder up so nobody else can exist
 in a free market after that.
 That's what happens, and of course it's bad for customers. Now that we have... There's like that guy J.D. Vance, right?
 The vice president for Trump.
 And then there's Kamala Harris.
 Y'all should be young enough to know
 that this is stupid.
 Y'all need to figure this shit out.
 Because I can understand
 Joe Biden doesn't know Apple
 bro
 Joe Biden probably didn't know how to use a fucking Apple PC.
 He got no idea, he didn't even know what the fuck it is.
 Probably thinking about the apple that you eat.
 But like come on with 60?
 Yeah, that's a lot younger than 78 or 82, huh?
 Yeah. Like, that's
 the... No, bro. If you're 60,
 you got no excuse.
 Zero excuse
 on the idea of how much Ferrari maintenance costs compared to normal cars?
 I mean, again, I think that's stupid
 too but like a lot less people have
 Ferraris so it's not really as high on a
 priority list. Like let's just be honest here
 right? This is a lot worse.
 No, I'm very much an advocate of this.
 I totally support Louie.
 I think he's right 100%.
 Yeah, and I hope that finally people get their heads out of their ass and they realize it, man.
 Is this legal though?
 More of a gray area?
 Oh, I don't know.
 Like, uh...
 I'm not sure.
 Ninja never wants to be alone with...
 I saw this.
 Look at this.
 This is funny.
 So Ninja goes, he posts this, right? I saw this. Look at this. This is funny. So, NinjaGozi
 posted this, right?
 Like, I don't do that.
 I go
 out of my way to make sure that
 I am never even alone in another room with a woman, ever.
 Ever.
 The craziest thing is I'm the opposite.
 I do as much as I can
 to make sure that I'm alone
 in a room with another woman, but
 the outcome is the same as Ninja.
 Yeah, it just doesn't happen.
 It never happens.
 Any moment? Yeah, it just doesn't happen. It never happens. Any moment?
 Like...
 Yeah, I can relate to this.
 Even like my PR person.
 Like, it doesn't matter who it is.
 I don't care if they work for me or whatever, bro.
 Sorry about the volume.
 If there's someone else in that room at all times,
 if we're alone,
 I leave instantly.
 That's like that's unlike fidelity right as for anything else dude it just I don't DM anyone idea my boys
 like IBM like guys in the community.
 Now there's no private messages going on with any girls.
 If there are... It's someone like Chica...
 Or like...
 You know...
 Just people in this space.
 And then I let my wife know.
 And as for,
 the people that I know, bro,
 if I don't know you,
 I'm not DMing you.
 I don't want to get to know you, dude.
 I don't want to find out
 your only seven...
 Yeah, I think he's obviously
 saying this is a response to the Doc stuff
 so it makes sense in the context
 but a lot of girls are getting mad
 about this. I saw this on Twitter.
 Let me see if I pull it up myself.
 Where the fuck is this?
 Is it over here?
 Where is it?
 Oh, my God.
 Give me a second.
 I'll look at this.
 I think this is kind of funny.
 Ninja woman. Ninja woman.
 I think that'd probably be enough, right?
 Yeah, I'm never alone.
 I don't do that.
 Yeah.
 I go out on my way to make sure...
 So people
 go in and they say, like I said forever ago,
 the line of thinking is so deeply
 misogynistic you do you but I guess
 you're admitting you see a loan's presence
 as inherently sexual,
 you're directly contributing
 to the gaming industry,
 remaining a boys club.
 God, if I made
 as much money
 as this dude,
 if I was somebody else
 I would do things differently
 just like gamers
 are not okay?
 So this is not really gamers uh
 mike pence said this uh himself right and mike pence is a i mean let's be honest like if he was
 a sith inquisitor i'd be like for sure of course course everybody knew that but here's the thing
 He's right no
 So this is... actually thinking about this
 This is the male version of do you want to be alone in the woods with a man or a bear
 this is the male version of that and i want to explain what i'm talking about
 is that the fact that a lot of these girls don't understand this they don't see it
 because they don't think about it from their perspective of a man and they
 don't think the way a man thinks the way a lot of guys think is it is not, most guys do not think in terms of any degree
 of idealism.
 I think that guys in general are more pragmatic with stuff in general.
 Like there's not as much of a, this is how
 things should be as much. It's like
 this is what I'm going to try to do
 and I think that based off of that
 the truth
 is that women who say, like give false accusations, false allegations.
 This is a minority case.
 This does not usually happen and in fact it's quite
 infrequent however the chance is there
 and the fact that the chance is there is
 enough for them not to want
 To go into this situation.
 In the same way
 That girls think
 That the chances are there
 For the bear And they would rather stick with the bear instead of the man
 this is the exact same thing but for guys
 you have to be alone in a room uh unless you're a mean woman hater
 yeah that's what it is well but i like this analogy
 no i think this is absolutely it yeah 100 percent uh a chance to wet cheat um so there's
 a lot of ways that this can go badly. Obviously, let's cut out
 the extreme ways, okay?
 Extreme ways where it's like
 sexual harassment or
 false accusation, right?
 Let's cut out the extremes.
 Now let's think about the less extremes. Let's think about your wife being
 distrustful because you're doing that with another woman and again
 maybe you can say oh well she should be more secure etc.
 But at the end of the day this is a two-way street.
 I think obviously somebody feeling a certain way is their perception right?
 He's famous, yeah he. Yeah, he's successful.
 He's famous.
 You know, like et cetera, right?
 It's respect for your spouse.
 It might make
 your spouse uncomfortable.
 Everybody...
 So this is a perspective
 that I have, right?
 I personally have no problem dating a girl who does OnlyFans.
 I have no issue with it. It doesn't bother me.
 However, a lot of other people do and I think that's totally valid
 And my opinion isn't right and yours
 isn't wrong, neither is my opinion
 wrong or your opinion right. It is a
 personal viewpoint and it's the way
 something makes a person feel
 Right? And it does not make me
 feel that way.
 And I think this is
 the exact same thing
 is that everybody
 always likes to tell
 other people
 what they need
 to be comfortable with
 in their relationships
 but the truth is that if something
 makes you feel uncomfortable and
 you don't like the way it makes you feel,
 then that's the end of the conversation.
 It doesn't matter. Like, you
 are not obligated to make your feelings congruent with somebody else's expectations.
 So, now you ask me? No I know! What I'm saying is that in the same way that I have an extreme
 in one direction, and I don't think there's anything wrong with the way
 that I see it. Ninja has an extreme
 in another direction and there's nothing wrong with the way he sees it.
 Because it's his life,
 It's his relationship
 And the only person who he is accountable to
 Is his spouse
 He's not accountable to every other woman He's not accountable to every other woman, he's not
 accountable to every feminist that shaves their head on Twitter
 and talks about how men are bad. No! This has nothing
 to do with them, that's not their life
 it's his life did a girl those only fans are not a man
 that's fine if you think that it's it's not relevant
 to me what you think it's not going to me what you think.
 It's not going to change the way that I feel.
 Like, at the end of the day there are
 things that... like for example
 how many of you guys have something like a...
 Maybe like- For me it's wasps. The sound of a wasp just freaks
 me out. I'm like fuck right? It's like red alert mode. How many of you guys
 have something like that?
 Yeah, yeah.
 Exactly right.
 You are not obligated to justify why you feel that way.
 You're not obligate, you don't have to justify that to anybody else.
 You don't have to prove the way that you feel about whatever it is, is like justified or anything like that. Even OnlyFans conflict with another partner? No no
 no I would say just like posting like you know sexy photos or something
 like that i don't really care a lot about that.
 That's not over my line.
 But what I'm saying is that
 I find it to be incredibly hypocritical
 and extremely entitled
 for other people
 to think that they can define where another
 person should be comfortable in their relationship.
 And I'll go back to what I'm saying right whether it's
 the way he feels the way I feel or the way
 she feels every single way is valid and the only person you're accountable to
 was the other person you're in a relationship with. That's it! So,
 The other issue too
 is that whenever
 your public creator like Ninja
 if he goes and does a stream
 with um Like here's a great example right i'll just use a real example
 myth and pokeman do you guys remember whenever pokemon started playing with myth
 and everybody started shipping them together and everybody started shipping them
 together, and everybody started talking about that.
 Nope yeah it was a Valkyrie
 but it was one or the other right?
 And so everybody turned into this thing
 and if you are
 in a relationship with that person
 and everybody is spamming and talking
 about how you're actually interested in another
 person, this has a very
 negative emotional effect on you. And I understand
 that people might not be able to relate to this because it's such
 a unique, nuanced problem and like you can only relate to it from
 an outsider perspective unless you've been in the situation.
 But as somebody who has been
 in this situation, ask Nick about
 this by the way. I'm sure he'll see what
 he says. I'm sure he's had situations
 like this himself right? Yeah look at yeah, look at that, right?
 So the best thing to do
 is to not put yourself in that situation.
 And I just honestly, I feel like this is a very reasonable thing to do.
 It's an extremely reasonable and smart thing to do for a guy
 And I think that guys look at being in a room alone with another woman
 In the same way women look at the choice between being alone in the forest
 Between a man and bear. It is the exact same thing
 Its not that the chances are high that it could
 happen, but the possibility
 is so damaging that people
 would do anything to avoid
 the possibility of it happening
 and this is why women don't understand it because women don't have the same experience
 that men do they don't see the false accusations in the same way that like a guy does
 it's totally different so yeah I get it
 for sure I'm sure there's a lot of girls that do get
 but like the same with the man and bear thing
 sure I get it absolutely
 but there it is
 and it's bad actors that have ruined the
 dance and relationships between men and women
 at large? I think that it's not actually
 bad actors, I think that there are too many cultures
 that exist right now in America
 and the culture became too diverse
 so the like social
 language of how to behave
 was so disconnected
 and is so disconnected that
 like for example if a girl says no she actually wants you to ask her again
 is actually true with some girls and in some cases it is absolutely
 but the problem is that whenever you live in such an abstract culture
 That doesn't have like one uniform experience
 Then, you're also taking a risk of completely freaking somebody out
 You see what I'm saying that's weird as
 fuck i i'm not i'm not here to debate like
 what's good and what's bad all i'm saying is that in the culture back in
 the day this was a this was a song and dance that men
 and women would play. Right? Absolutely.
 Now it's not like that anymore. It's because the culture has
 you know, it's broadened so much. And so
 you can't really go into it expecting that person will have the same cultural expectations
 that you will. So yeah, every person's roaming character? Yeah exactly
 Still a little bit if I'm told no,
 I move on.
 It's like computer
 games, not life
 games.
 I'm not...
 Listen, that's what
 most people do now
 right?
 And the reason why
 here's the way
 I see it
 the reason why
 that what do you call it? the reason why that uh what do you call
 it the reason why that's the case is very simple
 it's because i have spent like a long time on the internet
 reading comment after comment, message after message
 of women saying how much they hate it
 when guys won't take no for an answer.
 So growing up like you can watch a Disney movie
 and this happens in the Disney movie or you can watch some old
 romance movie and it happens in that.
 But then whenever you have actual girls saying
 this, from my perspective,
 if I'm trying to proposition and talk to a girl
 it's because I'm interested in her
 and I want to be with her
 and I would want to make her happy.
 So why would I want to do something
 that would intentionally
 make that person unhappy or uncomfortable?
 That is like the exact opposite of what I would
 want to do, right?
 So yeah, and how
 many of you guys are the same way?
 Like you read all these girls that say they don't
 like this and I'm like, I don't want to take a risk with this
 it seems too it it seems too risky yeah same exactly give me one second i'm starting to realize I'll turn down the AC. Just a second.
 I have it at 76 and it gets a little bit musty up in here unless I turn it down.
 And actually, like last year, I got all of the insulation and everything in the house.
 I spent $20,000 getting everything in a house. I spent $20,000
 getting everything in the house fixed for like home insulation so
 now it's all better and everything is good. 76 what the fuck?
 Yeah yeah 76 but put it down to 69.
 It's not 76 now outside.
 I'm saying like inside of my room
 because it's an upper...
 What do you call it?
 It's like an upper area so heat rises, right? It's like an upper area, so heat rises.
 Right? It's one of those situations.
 But yeah, I think Ninja is totally justified in this.
 A lot of people are mad at him for saying
 this, but at the end of
 the day, if you are
 making your partner uncomfortable
 then that's a problem
 and any smart man at his level would do the same.
 I mean,
 I don't really worry about this a whole lot
 to be honest with you.
 I really don't.
 For me,
 I try to just act normal as much as I can and that's it.
 Right? Yeah.
 I don't really worry about not his level.
 No, I mean yeah, Ninja is much more famous
 than I am, right? I mean regardless
 of how well his stream is doing now, Ninja's a
 fucking celebrity. I'm not. So yeah
 you're right about that. He also
 aren't in a relationship? You're right and I'll tell you this, whenever I't in a relationship. You're right, and I'll tell you this whenever
 I was in a relationship interactions that I would have with other female
 streamers would cause friction they would
 absolutely They would. Absolutely!
 Status plays into it a lot?
 Yep, 100%.
 Nothing's going to deal with the problem if it ever arises
 and there is no point in living in fearent. Yeah, exactly. Jealousy?
 Absolutely, yeah, yeah. And the thing is
 like
 it's easy to say oh just don't
 care about it but when people are like
 posting and telling
 your girlfriend or
 somebody you're talking to, oh wow he already
 replaced you. The new girl is way
 younger and hotter and all this
 stuff right?
 It feels really bad.
 So I think that whenever they get put in that position,
 it's a lot different, right?
 It's all about optics?
 Yeah, it's about the way it makes a person feel, right?
 That's it.
 Didn't Mike Pence have to deal with this during Trump presidency?
 Yeah, yeah, he did. Let me read a few more of these
 Permanent mask protects himself from potential risk to his reputation
 There's a lot of people who gravitate towards him for their own interests
 Exactly, yeah
 Like this is... any smart guy would do this.
 And also like it's not even any smart guy
 I think that the reason why he's doing
 this, it's actually
 not because of like a public reputation thing.
 It's because he doesn't want to cause friction with
 his wife.
 Maybe she gets jealous, because
 you know, people will start spamming about him
 oh, he's finally leaving her and she's
 gonna go to another girl this one's way better yeah that's the
 real reason it's got nothing to do with like getting cancelled or something
 like that it's gotta do with the fact that whenever ninja ends his stream
 and he goes into the living room, and she's like
 this. And it's
 like, aw, fuck.
 Aw, fuck! You know, now
 I've gotta deal with it. Great.
 Now it's- now I've got three more daily quests that
 I have to do today just so I can get
 back to the point where I'm supposed
 to be at. You know? Yeah, classic
 exactly! It's crazy!
 And people that do that are weird, what the fuck
 yeah but like that's just the way it is
 I'm just saying that again, that's just the way
 it is. Remember when everyone gave him a hard time for this
 sadly we have examples of why's playing it smart always made sense
 It's just for his wife and I'm like, it's not that complicated. What's this? This is not fair in Planet Fitness
 What One. Yeah?
 How is that possible?!
 Yeah?
 HOW?! Yeah? HELL!
 Yeah?
 NOT FAIR!
 I'll tell you exactly how it's possible bro, like I'll tell you exactly how it's possible, bro. Like I tell you exactly is because that kid is running around eight hours a day.
 He run around eight hour...
 I used to have calluses on my hands whenever i was a kid because we'd be doing this
 yeah, but we're doing
 this constantly
 Yeah trampoline jumping around
 doing shit like this
 absolutely soccer yeah ran on your hand. Well yeah doing shit like this. Absolutely. Soccer, yeah.
 Yeah, we do all kinds of stupid
 ass shit like that.
 Yeah, no, it's like you think about
 because I was thinking about how much physical activity
 I would get whenever I was a kid. Man,
 I feel like I was exercising four
 hours a day!
 But we would go outside, run around,
 jump around, play, do shit, fucking hit
 each other with sticks, go down to the woods, walk to
 7-Eleven, get a hot dog
 walk back to the house, go to the park
 fucking go out there, ride around
 get on the bike, ride around the bike
 play video games. That's four fucking hours wrestling
 around in the bedroom.
 Yes! We were going ape shit!
 Yeah, what do you
 mean?
 A few muscles, yeah.
 You actually blame him on genetics? Oh maybe that could be it
 I don't really know but
 I'm sure genetics always plays a factor
 But also its that a lot of people
 exercise alot whenever they're kids.
 They don't think about it in the same way.
 Absolutely not.
 Let's see here.
 Little shit.
 What's this?
 Oh, my God. Okay.
 Okay, uh... hmm okay uh damn
 damage sucks it's like in a way is funny
 right is funny but in another way it's funny. Right? It's funny but in another
 way I feel bad for the girl
 I do. I feel bad for her that sad
 That sad she gets put in that situation
 you know
 They said nah yeah cue up Yeah let me go and cue up real quick all right
 poe cute i know i know i know i'm gonna get it chill Do I gotta do download?
 Fuck, okay.
 I'll do this real quick.
 Yeah streamer queue?
 No no they don't have that anymore.
 People got pissed off about that?
 The same happens to men when they're being picked by girls too?
 Yeah I know.
 It goes without saying, you don't do steam? No I've done it like this ever since 2012.
 Just literally Asmon what's this?
 How dudes with no close friends,
 No job,
 No social skills or effort
 And no social media
 Expect to meet their soulmate?
 Oh fuck!
 Oh fuck! oh haha Hi, I saw you inside and watch the play.
 Easy!
 If only it was that easy man
 man
 they're playing rocket league Rocket League?
 Look at the chair!
 Oh my god
 this is the and the title is,
 this is literally Asmon.
 I feel like
 this dude just watched
 a video to be
 like... he watched it
 to like right here and he was
 like oh I know where I'm gonna
 oh I know what to do with this
 oh give me a minute
 there it is. Yeah we're gonna go sit... We know exactly who to send this to.
 Yeah that's what I think is going on man.
 It's just a little bit of that.
 Uh Baldi comes to mind? Yeah exactly they. They're just dating AI? Yeah, exactly.
 What is this here?
 Let me see how I log in real quick.
 Yeah.
 Alright, I'm in
 oh man
 I turn it down for now this is 20 K 20k queue, it is what it is It's gonna end whenever it ends
 and i'm gonna play whenever i'm gonna play
 like, I mean, what the fuck? Right?
 Yeah, what do you want me to do?
 I'm in 17k.
 Alright, I'm not going to get that upset about it
 or anything like that. It is what it is
 So yeah
 Didn't Asmod literally say a few days ago they you do something like this new squid game just dropped wealthy Russian people are hiding luxury yachts which are heavily armed to sail North Somalia on pirate hunting expeditions.
 Their goal to hopefully attract pirates and approach them so they
 can open fire with grenade launchers
 and automatic weapons. This is the closest
 thing to The Purge currently available."
 Nah bro, like if people do this in every game...
 Is like there's gonna be people that are camping outside of the city and a contested zone?
 Bro they're ready to gank you. Exactly!
 Yeah no this is what happens. And like you know really what this is?
 This is that level 40 rogue comes out and he's killing all the level 15s in Westfall or Duskwood or something
 and he's killing them it is no problem. It's easy
 for him, right? But then
 you have the
 Russian billionaire
 The GDKP Enjoyer
 Full Tier 3 Level 6 DKP Enjoyer full tier 3
 level 60 rogue
 shows up.
 Yeah, you got Dimitri pulls
 up on him with his fucking yacht,
 With machine guns and a mercenary army.
 And just blows this dude the fuckin' part!
 Here's the thing... Thank God they're doing this.
 This is great. Finally.
 Why can't Russia do
 this instead of fucking with Ukraine?
 Like, this would be great.
 This is a great idea!
 Why don't they just go do this send all those ships and shit
 and we'll just have them blow up the pirates to solve the problems yeah
 yeah i feel like this fits right together in
 the world we can do both bro you think so
 Those pirates are straight-up savages. Yeah
 They're pirates just shoot them
 What are you talking about? It's not even a question.
 Psycho tank, no it's not! They're pirates!
 They go around robbing people to shoot them!
 Why not?!
 Why would you not just shoot
 and blow them up?
 That's it.
 What are you talking about?
 What do they need to be there for?
 Guys, it's a risky job.
 That's a risk.
 That's the risk that you take whenever
 you are pirate.
 That's the way it is.
 Yeah, there's no laws on international waters.
 That's right.
 What about Russian Navy? no laws on international waters that's right that's right about russian navy is too heavily invested in their submarine police that's okay they can blow them up from underneath
 that's not that's that's fine man that's why they They can figure it out.
 Yeah, it's okay.
 Yeah, they'll 100% kill you so why let them?
 Absolutely, bro.
 There's no reason.
 The thing is if you ever show somebody like this sympathy they're going to take advantage of it. They're going
 to hurt somebody else bro. Like you never, ever do that. If somebody is being a rat,
 somebody is committing crime... These people are going around with guns right? They killing
 people and doing all kinds of crazy shit.
 No, you just kill them.
 It's done. That's it.
 It's such an easy decision.
 Anybody that has trouble with that decision,
 don't vote. Don't vote. You don't have the stomach for it.
 You don't know what actually
 is right and wrong. There's a lot
 of people that like
 to give sympathy to bad people
 because they think that makes them a good person.
 It doesn't, it makes you a bad person because what you're doing is
 you're enabling a bad person to hurt someone again.
 That's what I think.
 That's my perspective. There's what I think. That's my perspective.
 This is
 2020, this league
 is going to be going crazy.
 Big, big, big league.
 Fuck them shootingem that's right
 yeah mindset is too common I know I know it's versus him one rugby player bulldozes
 oh my god. Jesus!
 She almost made it too.
 Crazy She almost made it too!
 Grabbing her fucking throat? You're able to do that?!
 Oh my god. God damn, why for sure- I don't know what to say. God.
 God damn, why for sure?
 I don't know what to say, man.
 She didn't make it by the way?
 That's fucking funny, man.
 That's great.
 I remember there was one time this girl... We were like 14 at the time right? Maybe 15. And she wanted to borrow my video camera so she could record herself getting in a fight with another girl and they they were gonna get in a fight at school at night
 and uh i was like hell yeah you can borrow my video camera for that absolutely and so like because I mean the reason why is I was like the kind of kid it's like yeah well I liked her a
 lot she didn't like me me, but that's the story
 of my life. Anyway, so she
 goes and she records the fight, and
 she gives me the camera back the other day. I say,
 how'd it go? And then she left, and
 she showed it. When I i would not look at it
 she was like this skinny girl
 and uh... like the skinny blonde world
 and uh...
 she went up against the Juggernaut, man.
 And she got fucking destroyed.
 This is like right at this same time that that I'm The Juggernaut bitch meme started getting popular.
 And we would keep saying this shit to her.
 Man,
 there's probably a reason she didn't like me, you know?
 That's what it was.
 She should have waited for the balance patch.
 I mean...
 Damn bro, like you say that and the thing is
 that your kinda right because
 I saw her recently
 She's a bit of juggernaut herself now too.
 I just...
 That's great, that's cra- You know what? Let's move on.
 Let's talk about something else.
 That's just the way it is, spend some runes.
 Yeah, yeah.
 She was still in early access I guess. But she's not going to be able the way it is, Spencer Maroons? Yeah. Yep.
 Uh... She was still in early access? I guess so, man.
 Yep.
 That's amazing. Stay to your
 sub. This contains
 uh... If you believe this is an error,
 what was it?
 The post contains terms related to off-topic discussions.
 What's the point of this disclaimer
 and every post on here
 that's discussing exactly these things?
 Can't wait to see more Asmon-related content
 unless a brain rot.
 Why is it every day somebody on this Reddit is getting mad about the shit that's on their Reddit?
 Like, shut the fuck up! Just post whatever the fuck you want!
 I don't want it to turn into like a circle jerk for like one topic right
 because it's just exhausting but like y'all want to post something that's fine like god damn
 people get mad about this shit all the time. Just post what you want.
 Yeah, it's not that hard. What was he posting? Let's find out
 what this bitch is posting.
 Chess?
 Chess? Bro, what's this meme from 2009?
 Damn! Good idea they banned your ass for this shit.
 This is a 2009 meme! Get the fuck outta here. You got scammed by somebody?
 It's a propaganda war? I don't even know- oh, this guy posted something but it got removed
 by Reddit. This guy got his comment
 removed by Reddit.
 Yeah, this is a dude that
 he got a lot...
 I did recently join the sub.
 And I watch Asmon uh and this rw dumpster crap
 rw right wing
 right wing that's what he's thinking about singing about right wing i get it
 that's cute
 Give me a second
 Yeah, i don't know what to say ban him
 Do you think I should ban him? Ban him for this-
 I should ban him for a meme
 He posted on a different subreddit a month ago.
 Maybe that's a good idea.
 I feel like
 that's a decent idea.
 I think about that.
 Well, I guess that could be something special.
 We got a number of Indian viewers?
 I got no problem with it.
 People watch whatever the fuck...
 Like, the thing is that you want to know why
 there's a lot of right-wing discussion on my Reddit
 is because I don't really shy away from
 conversations about stuff like this. A lot
 of people on the internet don't want to talk about
 anything, right? Because they're worried about being
 painted in this bad light. I don't need
 to worry about that because everybody hates me anyway
 so now, I can just go and talk about it
 whatever the fuck I want
 if there's something that people agree with
 I'll just say yeah, I agree with this
 and so there's nothing really problematic
 with that and so yeah people are going to be mad
 so the reason why you see right-wing stuff here is because we have
 a you can have free speech in my subreddit unless you say something that I don't like
 and then I ban you permanently.
 But besides that,
 you have free speech
 and so it's like
 whatever opinion you want to have
 you can post whatever the fuck you want
 and we ban you maybe if I feel like it, but
 there's not a principle behind it
 other than the fact that don't make me look bad
 or worse,
 right? Y'all post some of this
 racist shit. Get the fuck out. It's not even y'all post some of this racist shit. Get the fuck out...
 It's not even y'all, it's like three people
 Those three people, we banned one of them
 One of them is gone, we got two left
 And that's a problem
 That's a problem. We've got to stop that,
 but otherwise everything else is fine.
 You've got a bunch of incels in there?
 You know why I've got a bunch of incels
 on my subreddit?
 Why everybody says
 it's like the leader of the
 incels
 i wonder why i wonder why that would be.
 I don't know,
 I got no idea.
 People say chat reflexes,
 that's what some people
 say, right?
 I mean,
 I'm not saying
 that's what it is,
 I'm just saying
 that's what
 some people say.
 But like,
 here's the thing,
 Morningstar has
 watched Destiny for sure,
 I don't know,
 but all I'm saying
 is...
 No, yeah, she's not the girl?
 Not really.
 To be honest, like, not really.
 But, um...
 Oh, fuck.
 Like... I don't think you're in.
 So, like, the reason why is that
 a lot of people, like a lot of guys
 like to shit on guys that are incels
 but like I will try to listen to what somebody's
 trying to say rather than what I want them
 to say and I think that a lot of incels,
 even though they know
 that I'm not really on their side
 with a lot of stuff,
 they know that
 I will hear their side.
 And I think that
 that's the next best thing.
 You see what I'm saying?
 So like, because I will watch videos
 and I will approach something that somebody says
 in what I believe to be
 right? What I believe to be
 an honest perspective and so that's it
 where you're telling me this is an incel meeting stream?
 No, we were talking about how women were bad earlier
 today. We're going to do it again too. Don't worry about it
 but like yeah, I'm just saying in general
 because you want topics on discussions that are normally banned or shunned
 in other spaces. This is exactly it.
 This dude really puts it out there.
 Look, read it.
 Because you allow discussion
 on topics that are normally banned or shunned in many spaces, those people
 gravitate towards you. There it is
 That's the real reason
 That's the actual reason
 Yep
 I let people talk about it and that's what it is
 These people asthmamone attracts,
 even if this rule didn't exist the sub can't handle politics
 they say the most unhinged shit
 makes it look bad for the community
 I don't really take a lot of
 like I have to ban people on Twitch
 because of the
 rules. But other than that
 somebody in my community says something bad
 I say okay
 Like, I'm not controlling them
 I'm not controlling them.
 I'm not telling them what to say.
 They're going to say whatever the fuck they want.
 It's not my problem.
 I'm not saying it's a TOS.
 Yeah, bro, like,
 the TOS is the only thing I give a fuck about, right?
 Am I a racist then uh you showed the the race of the ching chong clip
 yesterday you didn't ban the poster uh i deleted the post and and the reason why
 i didn't ban him here's the reason why i didn't ban him, here's the reason why I didn't ban him.
 It's because I think that most people don't know that that's a racist term.
 I genuinely believe that they don't think,
 they were not posting it with the intention
 of being racist
 They were posting it because they just thought
 it was a stereotype or some sort
 of like, a word that like Asian
 people would say or something like that.
 Oh, really? Yeah, exactly.
 There's a lot of...
 So here's an example.
 I'm trying to think which one can I use
 in conversation that won't get me in trouble
 that I can give as an example of something that's racist
 that I can say.
 Clerks 2?
 Bringing it back, right?
 Yeah!
 Cracker? No, no.
 Cracker because everybody knows that's a bad one.
 Uh... because everybody knows that's a bad one. I'm trying to think of, like,
 a good one.
 Yeah, Vanilla Effect? Ghetto?
 Not really ghetto like
 i'm trying to think is there a single one that i can even say bro
 i don't even think i could say any of these. Yeah.
 Oh, I got one. Mongoloid.
 Got it. There's the word.
 Mongoloid is considered racial
 because it is used as
 a word that's derogatory and its derivative from Mongolian.
 So, that's a good example. A lot of people don't know
 that has a racial connotation. They have no idea. So I let it slide because I assume that people
 just don't understand the nuance behind them and now if somebody keeps saying it,
 I'm like you've got to tone it down. Right? Because again, it makes me look bad. But
 like
 I don't automatically
 I don't shoot first and ask questions later.
 You see what I'm saying? I didn't know
 that. Yeah, I know.
 Hey,
 hey,
 hey.
 I know all of them.
 I know every single all the
 all of them
 every single one
 and all the words
 absolutely and these among us single one, all the words. Absolutely.
 And they used to be long ways and moved to retard?
 No, there's a lot of different words that people use for that but the point is that word isn't really
 used anymore because it's considered
 to be racial or racist, right? That's why people
 don't use the word as much. That's why I don't use the word
 as much. And so... Because I used to use that word all
 the time. I stopped using it because it's
 TOS, right? We can't say that.
 So yeah, it's that simple.
 Okay, but you're can't say that. So yeah, it's that simple. The clip of your dad
 saying I know them all?
 No, he's the only person
 that knows more than either...
 Yeah, he knows a lot of them.
 Like... either yeah he knows a lot of them like
 it's crazy that's really crazy but you have no idea idea what word you can call Ukrainians?
 No, you're right, I don't actually. Yeah, there are a few words for people in that region but I'm not sure if there's one that's specific.
 No, I really don't.
 Yeah.
 Some Russians? Yeah,
 I really don't know. But anyway, what's this here?
 China tests anti-sleep lasers on the highway.
 Uh oh.
 Uh oh.
 Damn bro, I feel like I'm playing Mario Kart.
 You got Rainbow Road!
 Jesus!
 What? Jesus! Damn, it looks like... Yeah bro that's a
 Skrillex concert. Yeah what the
 fuck? Does that actually help?
 I bet it probably will wake me the fuck up, absolutely.
 Would it work? Uh...I don't know. I feel like it would also be distracting.
 It's hard to know how to do something like this and have it work.
 Camera 1, Activist 0. An eco-activist was hit by a camera? I saw this and watched it again, that's funny.
 Watch this.
 Watch this. Watch.
 Man!
 Oh man, that's what you get!
 Oh that's what you get and I hate to say it
 No, I don't
 I want to once again apologize
 If apologize is two more upper middle class white people
 that want to make everything about
 themselves.
 See, it's like that's the only
 thing because you know
 I can call this out
 now I guarantee you if somebody
 else calls this out, there's not
 why people are going to act like
 oh they're racist
 it's like I can't believe
 that like
 they're saying this
 but as a white person
 I can say this
 I'm sorry
 that we fucking
 do this shit
 this attention seeking virtue signaling sorry that we fucking do this shit. This attention-seeking,
 virtue signaling, it's
 all about me bullshit.
 I'm actually the victim.
 Oh my god.
 It's not your fault? I don't know why we're doing this,
 We gotta stop this bro!
 We gotta have like a white people convention
 and tell them to stop making everything about themselves
 Holy shit
 This is annoying People came straight out of Pepsi commercial?
 Yeah, luxury beliefs.
 That's what it's all about man.
 I remember the days when I was excited to go shopping, but now...
 Find everything you need today? Yeah.
 Great.
 Okay.
 I've seen this like five times bro.
 I'm not ready to see it again.
 Yeah, it's basically just her spending all the money uh right like we've seen this too many times i went to the grocery store i'm trying to think about when
 i went to the grocery store last time i I went to Target after I bought...
 When did I buy my bed?
 I bought my bed maybe two or three weeks ago
 when I went to the grocery store.
 I bought a bunch of protein bars
 and I bought brownies, Iies about cookies i bought muffins i bought uh i got ice cream
 oh what the i get this i got beef this... I got beef jerky.
 I got beef jerky too.
 I got lemonade!
 And uh yeah that was about it
 I got some candy
 That's right
 and so real food
 We've got the real food we fool dot the real shit in there
 and so anyway state action didn't get staked it
 but any way up
 i don't even know how much money it was but it was over two hundred dollars
 because to be fair i did buy new bedding for my
 moneybed right and so that was a bit of money but god damn that's a lot of
 fucking money holy shit yeah
 it's a little too much money people are spending on shit.
 Like, I'm like... You know, I had a friend of mine and he and I went to fucking middle school together or high school together
 We were- I've known him
 my whole life basically.
 He'd come over to my house
 he'd bring his Xbox over
 we'd play Halo on Halo
 Xbox Live together like we've been boys for a while, for a bit.
 20 years.
 20
 years. Holy fuck.
 21 actually now. Yeah,
 21-22. And so yeah, that's it. and so yeah that's it
 and so he comes over and he's telling me bro like he's got a job
 now
 he said he works 25 hours a week he makes makes over $100,000 a year and most of it's remote.
 He comes into the office once a week.
 He's like talking about all the vacations. He's good.
 He's like,
 yeah,
 we got to go over here.
 We're going to go up to Chicago to visit like some other dude that
 we know we're going to go.
 Yeah,
 of course we're going to go to Japan.
 What we get,
 what's the job is some IT tech shit, right?
 We... Whenever
 we were in high school together, like, we did tech
 repair so he'd been doing it for a long time.
 By the way, I was way better than
 he was. I had to teach him everything.
 But you know, so like,
 it's kind of...
 You know,
 I got the ball rolling there
 but yeah,
 jobs like that exist?
 They do!
 Bro,
 it's a free farm
 and like
 I was talking about it and he's like, yeah
 if I didn't get put
 in this situation, I don't know if I'd still even
 be able to live in Austin now
 He didn't even know
 That's what it was
 That's crazy. Last week was probably no fun though he didn't even know that's what it was
 That's crazy last week. It's probably no fun though funny thing about that I asked him about it
 He slept in that day Woke up, he's like nah woke up
 it was like 930
 damn 75
 missed messages
 is good now
 okay alright well let me know if y'all need It's good now? Okay.
 Alright, well let me know if y'all need anything
 That's it
 That's it, yeah. Some people have it so easy. Yeah bro you gotta start
 freeform however you can. Is data analytics? Nah it's not data analytics
 If it was data analytics, he'd be making more
 because we have another friend.
 He owns a data analytics company
 and yeah, like he says everybody in his company
 makes like 150 easy, right?
 Like, yeah yeah and that was
 like maybe a few years ago they're
 probably up to 200 now senior engineer
 yeah yeah working from home is awesome
 totally well yeah but you got to be a
 You got to work though. That's the problem right?
 It's because a lot of people like they want to get
 paid a lot of money but they don't want to work
 There's a lot of people who don't want to work
 It's sad
 You're going to probably have to 1 million now? Yeah a lot of people don't want to work. It's sad.
 Probably up to one million now? Yeah, no, it really is like I'm doing that now.
 Because I noticed this whenever I worked at the government
 bro, like to me, it's
 if I feel like I'm getting paid
 Why is it sad? It's sad because
 Like this is why I think it's sad
 It's sad because you're dedicating
 The majority of your life
 Your waking life to something
 that you're not
 interested in and
 you don't like
 and you don't
 care about.
 I think
 that's sad.
 It is
 like straight up. I think that's
 fucking it's sad it's depressing do you know
 any poor people yeah of course
 yeah absolutely and
 yeah it is what it is and I know right
 it is what it is right you're in that situation, and I get
 it, but there's
 a lot of things like somebody breaks their leg.
 It is what it is, yeah, but it's sad.
 I totally agree with you. Yeah, exactly.
 This is going to sound kind of you yeah yeah exactly like i
 like this is going to sound like kind of like contradictory because it's not
 really the attitude that I have with a
 lot of other things but like whenever
 I worked for the IRS
 I worked my ass off, I worked my ass off every day
 because I felt like
 I was being treated the right way
 and, you know,
 I wanted to keep that job.
 I wanted to have that job.
 I was happy with it, right?
 And so...
 Like, I enjoyed it.
 I thought it was good
 and so, like so I feel really bad
 for people
 that don't have that situation, right?
 It sucks.
 Garment jobs are so chill.
 But then I saw other people
 and it's like
 some woman's on a phone
 with her sister
 talking about how bad
 her job is
 like you're not even
 working bitch
 like what the fuck
 are you doing?
 They're paying you
 $15 an hour. This was over 10 years
 ago, by the way. $15
 an hour and you're getting paid overtime to sit on the phone?
 Work
 bitch! What are you doing? They give you money work
 Jesus easy leave job. Yes
 Being a mom is the job how dare you I mean look I agree with you absolutely
 but that's not even what they're saying
 I barely get employed in my country yeah yeah trading time for money
 yeah yeah but anyway has modern monetization killed off core
 gamer games? What the fuck...
 Think about it. Why is Diablo
 the only one of their original franchises
 that's still around? It's easier to monetize an
 ARPG. Blizzard has basically abandoned the oldest and most loyal market segment
 they have purely for monetary reasons. It's purely a monetization racket now,
 making games is just a vector for predatory marketing."
 I think this is a super popular Reddit post
 that has no bounding and no basis on reality.
 I don't think that's true. The reason why Blizzard isn't making
 RTS is because nobody gives a fuck
 about RTS. Like, there
 are people that are trying to bring out RTS.
 Like, they are billions came out
 you've got Stormgate.
 They're really trying, man.
 And you've got people
 trying to make new games
 but it just simply fell off.
 Don't get mad at Blizzard
 because the market interests change.
 Like I'm sorry, but that's where it is.
 Like Stormgate? Yeah, yeah.
 And like, I get that
 that...
 It's not really hard to make and sell skins in RTS. Yeah, the genre itself is just not popular.
 Yeah it's just not popular.
 Outside of this game there are old fan favorites like Age of Empires.
 You know why people liked Age of Empires so much? people liked the age of empires in 1999
 okay like it's a it's a nostalgia game man it is if they release that game today
 it wouldn't have the same impact and cultural penetration that it did then.
 But back then, it was
 world-chang... It was crazy!
 And how many of you guys, your parents
 let you play the game more because
 it had an educational component? Because my mom was totally fine with
 me playing Age Empires all the time." Yeah, exactly! And so there's a lot of reasons why people are
 positive about Age Empires. I think it makes sense.
 Asian Empires 2 is more important? Yeah, yeah.
 And so
 the genre is not so mainstream?
 This guy,
 this guy,
 I think the RTS genre needs its Baldur's Gate 3 moment.
 I really,
 really,
 really like this comment
 but I'm not sure if I agree with it
 and I'm trying to think about
 like, what do I really
 think about this? Like, I mean
 cause like
 XCOM? Well
 Sorry, I turned the shit down a little bit.
 Because Baldur's Gate 3 wasn't like
 a breakout for CRPG
 because they already had Divinity 2.
 Divinity 2 was already
 a popular, well-selling
 game.
 Whereas RTS... I feel like the closest thing that we really have
 To RTS nowadays
 This is, I hate that I have to say this
 Is Clash of Clans
 It's like these phone games.
 Ballersgate 3 isn't a popular format?
 It's not a popular format, but
 it's not a super unpopular
 format. And the point I'm making is
 with RTS, RTS is like super unpopular.
 And that's the difference.
 The reason why RTS isn't popular
 is simply because the...
 I think a big reason is that being good at the game isn't fun
 that's the main reason it's not fun to micromanage four different bases
 and do economy for four different bases
 at the same time. You need to think?
 It's not just that you need to think, it's
 that the act of doing that
 doesn't feel good.
 That's the way I see it. 200 plus APM? Well, like what I'm saying is that an RTS that wants to be successful has to figure out a way to lower the skill ceiling of micromanagement.
 And if an RTS can do that, I think it can succeed.
 There's a lot of genres and developers trying to approach
 that but it is hard to do rts is not immersive
 it's not engaging it's just stressful i think that there's
 a good reason for people to say that yeah i can see what you're saying.
 Would StarCraft on a phone work for Blizzard?
 Don't give them any ideas man. Stop it. Stop typing that.
 Stop it.
 One skin and wow earn.
 Bro.
 Oh, man.
 God, that was a crazy clip.
 They could easily monetize RTS skins etc?
 Yeah yeah but I don't think they killed off core gamer games
 like we're getting ready to play a
 core gamer game right now how is it that like they've
 killed off core gamer games whenever there are massive popular core gamer
 games it's just not true.
 The Star Forge on the
 title is not correct? Or was it really? I don't know,
 I'll fix it later on. But yeah, that's good to know.
 The industry realized RTS is more profitable to train
 AI models with instead of selling boxes.
 And so that's really what I think is happening, and shitification?
 No it's not...I think this post would not be popular
 the only reason why its getting upvoted is because it's Blizzard bad.
 That's my opinion.
 Die claims he's at 50...
 Hold up.
 Hold up!
 Brought to you by the EveryDollar app app start budgeting for free today I am in a
 bit of trouble actually so I would I guess how do I need to start so I guess, I don't want to get started.
 So I guess in the last year,
 I've been building up some debt.
 That's always a bad thing.
 You don't wanna build up, guys. Debt bad. You don't want that. That's real bad. You don't want it.
 Kind of hiding it from my family. Smart.
 And, it all recently came out and pretty much is tearing apart
 my family at this point.
 Good job!
 How much debt man?
 About $50,000.
 That's only like on a scale of I fucked up my life.
 That's only like a 4 or 3 to be honest
 yeah it's really
 not that bad
 it's rookie numbers
 my mom had a way higher score than this
 credit card My mom, she had a way higher score than this.
 It's all credit card.
 What are you buying?
 So that's the worst part is not really buying anything. It's actually a streaming.
 Um, so I, uh, I used to play video games a lot.
 I'm actually in the military. So, uh, so I used to, you know,
 play video games as a way to kind of cope.
 Yeah, usually guys in the military that do that,
 usually they spend all their money on like a Dodge Hellcat or something like that
 that's,
 like,
 financed at,
 like,
 37% interest.
 Yeah,
 Camaro,
 Mustang,
 yeah,
 like,
 bro,
 this guy has got it twisted.
 Basically,
 uh...
 I got into streaming
 and watching other
 streamers play video gaming
 and kind of helped
 pass the time
 especially when
 I'm at work.
 Why are you giving them money?
 And I just –
 I kind of got into the whole gifting options.
 Couldn't really control it.
 I can say I've never been addicted to anything. Couldn't really control it. I can say I've never been addicted to anything.
 Couldn't really control it?
 That's your problem right there, you lazy bitch.
 You a grown-ass man.
 You couldn't control it?
 You mean you didn't control it?
 Yeah, for my life.
 It has got to be the
 closest thing.
 I can't say that
 yeah, I guess... The definition
 of addiction is
 a pattern of behavior that continues
 after the person
 knows it's hurting me.
 And I continue...
 Well, fuck.
 If that's the case, then I think there's a...
 Uh-oh.
 You didn't do it anyway.
 Can I tell you, this is me just being
 straight up with you
 I don't know if I fully believe you
 because it's so stupid like
 you would think that it's fake
 that's true, that's a good point he brings So stupid, like you would think that it's fake.
 That's true.
 That's a good point he brings up.
 As Montan has addiction takes?
 Well, it's not really a take, it's just a fact.
 You want to stop something from happening,
 stop doing it.
 What else were you spending? $50,000.
 I only see that in extreme like you suddenly have
 somebody else that
 you're
 courting or
 you have
 you're struggling
 with drugs
 you're struggling
 with gambling
 yeah
 it honestly
 I know it sounds crazy, but that literally is it.
 You just sit there watching Twitch.
 No, here's the reason why he probably doing it.
 He probably doing it because he's lonely and every time he does it,
 everybody in a chat is like wow this guy
 is so cool. He's great.
 There's two reasons actually. It could be that number
 2 could just be a girl who trying to get money too
 so she'll date him, right? That's probably what
 it could be but the other instance could be
 that people are addicted to that attention.
 You know?
 It's that five minutes of glory.
 Exactly.
 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
 Gifting thousands of dollars away
 to people?
 Yes.
 I got so into the hype
 you know
 when you drop that
 $500, you know 100
 subs everybody goes crazy
 See I told you I told you his people is a pathetic little bitch addicted to attention
 Because the parents never gave him enough and he's sitting there pissing away all his money
 He working his fucking ass off, he signed
 his body away to the military, the United
 States government so we could spend
 that money on giving some
 fat scrawny or probably fat
 or scrawny little nerd playing fortnight all their money
 but it you know hype train yeah bro like Jesus Christ this is embarrassing well
 oh you don't I love with these financial audit shows is whenever the guy just calls them a fucking loser.
 And he says, listen bro you are dumb as fuck.
 I don't know what you were thinking.
 You're totally wrong and the reason why is because that's what they need to hear,
 is because the more that you coddle...
 Oh it's okay! It's okay! Everybody makes mistakes!
 Bitch this is a big mistake!
 You fucked up!
 You know they hype you up and I got so into it
 I don't know it just kept happening
 I wasn't keeping track i wasn't paying attention you know as soon as uh one credit card
 max go straight to another one over what course of time
 how how long did that take you to acquire this debt
 it was over a year damn bro i'm having a hard time with it same no see they don't get it because like
 they probably not that like they're probably about my age,
 right? And, like, they went the path of not being
 addicted to the internet. So, like,
 they probably don't get what's going on here but
 like, yeah, no, this shit used to happen. Like,
 this is all the time it happens. Yeah.
 Absolutely.
 Probably older? Yeah.
 I'm older, man.
 Are you married?
 I am. I have kids and that was the hardest part, once I realized how bad it was.
 Dude you would know man Alex, you would know. Like maybe if we're sitting there trying to
 explain this to your wife or something she'll buy this
 but you would you had to actually go open new credit cards i did so you didn't just open
 your eyes and it was 50 000 when so the credit cards were old ones that we had zero balance on i'll give
 you all some advice never use a credit card it's a scam
 never use credit card nothing absolutely not like the only people that should
 use credit cards is people like my dad like my dad used a credit card and uh
 you know he gets some money back every time but here's
 the problem right is that the people that don't need credit cards should use
 credit cards and the people that think they do need credit cards shouldn't use credit
 cards. That's a better way to say horrible tech? No, it's a fact. It's a
 fact I've seen so many people fuck their life up with credit cards.
 That we had used from
 years prior when
 during COVID
 we were using... My wife wasn't able to work so it was just
 my income that was supporting us and you know mortgage rates in colorado are
 not very good at all and they haven't been for a long time
 then we just basically were using credit cards to kind of survive.
 Once we came out of that and she was able to start working,
 we were able to pay them down.
 We even refinanced the house at one point
 to be able to get some money back.
 So you refinance the house to give people money for attention and chat room?
 That's crazy, man. This dude really fucked up his life, huh?
 And again, I tell you like...
 Listen.
 This is only a 3 or a 4 on the scale of fucked up your life.
 It's really not that bad.
 Like, I've seen people
 that are at the
 six and seven,
 it's hard to even
 see a nine,
 right?
 A nine,
 that's a crackhead
 under a bridge
 with one leg
 and three fingers.
 You gotta one leg and three fingers. Like,
 I mean, you got a ways to
 go until you really hit
 rock bottom. Fixable in five
 years? Yeah. Let me ask
 a little bit of a more tactical question. You've got $50,000 in credit cards.
 You've gotta make minimum payments.
 Stop making the payments.
 If they call you, hang up the phone.
 This is what you need to do. You need to declare
 bankruptcy. You need to stop
 paying the phones. If they call
 you, say it's not you.
 If they try to do anything,
 like do whatever you can
 like consult a lawyer
 look online for legal advice
 Can they put you in jail?
 Can they garnish your wages
 90% of the time
 They can't
 So you've got to do whatever
 you can, bro,
 to take that money and keep it
 because
 fuck them.
 Credit unions consolidation loan one card at a time.
 Yep bro like you gotta get away from it.
 Go on cooldown? Yeah yeah use the cool down.
 How did she not notice hey there's hundreds of dollars going out in a month
 He hid them. That's why
 In minimum payments
 I'm guessing you guys keep the money separate so she couldn't see that
 Well, so I actually went and opened up a checking account on the side. So
 that way I could have some of my paycheck right but she's damn that's crazy.
 So he opened up a second card while he is married in his name alone just so that he can give his money away?
 This is a professional dick eater!
 This is crazy!
 Oh my god, how you do this?! This is crazy. Oh, my God.
 How do you do this?
 He's fast-tracking the voice.
 There's a lot less money coming in than there used to be.
 And that didn't raise any red flags?
 For her?
 I'm just trying to... She probably didn't know, right?
 That's really what it is.
 What's the hatred you have for the government?
 I love it.
 I think government's great. Like, in some ways, government's great. Like you have for the government? I think government is great in some ways. Government is great, like you need the government. But like I hate credit companies because I think they're completely parasitic and I think that they exist purely at the expense of other people. I think the entire idea
 of a credit score
 is not really that much different
 than a social credit score in China.
 I think it's disgusting,
 I hate it
 and I think that
 the introduction of these extremely high levels of debt should be criminally prosecuted.
 I think it's actually horrible.
 It's crazy. So for me,
 like, I don't hate the government
 because the government is the one that lets it happen.
 You type in the same message
 over and over, bro. Like you you're doing too many of it?
 Now I'm going to let y'all know, I'm not going to read
 the second one because now you're doing this as a
 normal thing. It's too many times,
 bro. Like that's just an instant perma.
 Again, it's not what you said.
 It's the way you say it.
 It's annoying you type like that.
 Get the fuck out of here.
 So yeah.
 I don't know what you were thinking bro.
 Why would you do that?
 It's such an obnoxious type of behavior.
 Spammers get fucked.
 Yeah, if you spam in chat,
 you just instant perma.
 That's it.
 And the landscape of your marriage.
 All I can say is that we were never really good
 with finances when it comes to keeping track,
 as long as we knew
 we had money
 to do things
 and pay things,
 uh,
 we weren't really
 paying attention.
 But you didn't have
 money though,
 right?
 Because you said
 before that you
 didn't have any
 fucking money
 and now you're
 saying as long
 as we had money,
 what you mean is if we had somebody else's money.
 Uh-oh.
 As much as, like, I never really cared what she was spending money on. She never really cared what she was spending money on,
 and it didn't get to that point.
 That's crazy that both of them...
 Because they were already having
 money problems, and neither one of them care what
 they're spending money on man. Man, that's crazy.
 So she didn't realize it was something bad?
 So like $500 or $800 could be gone and her not even notice.
 Mm-hmm.
 Yeah.
 Wow.
 Bro, Jade and I make a lot of money and I will tell you right now,
 dog,
 I know if money's missing.
 Sheesh.
 All right.
 So how can we help?
 And yeah.
 So,
 I mean, at this point i mean uh the basic thing is i'm just terrible with
 money obviously and i i have no idea what i'm doing he's not terrible with
 money he probably is to an extent but he's terrible
 with self-control. The thing is a person like
 that problem is going to manifest
 itself in a bunch of different ways in life
 If you can't control yourself and you're addicted
 to attention then you're going to have a lot
 of problems in life that are not just money related.
 Money is just the way that that
 problem is manifesting itself right now
 but if you've got an empty
 cup inside of you that you're trying to look somebody else
 to fill up, you're going to go and figure it out somewhere else.
 And so the moment that you can't do it with money, you're gonna try and do it with something
 that's different than money.
 You're gonna do it with like a girl you're going to do it with
 doing stupid shit for
 attention. At the end of the day
 that's
 he's got a self control problem
 I can't do that.
 Financial advice should be taken with a grain of salt
 here? Where you need to be positioned
 financially is unique to your situation? Please take
 what Asman says with a grain of salt, please?
 No, what I'm saying is completely true like there's
 there's no like there's never a situation where what i'm saying isn't
 true
 it's not like it it's literally true in every situation that's not the problem bro yeah like you're living
 in an altered reality like you have to go get beneath that.
 If we take you at your word, which I'm telling you right now
 I've just been doing this for too long,
 I'm struggling with it.
 I immediately believe it.
 If I take you at your word and when MasterCard said
 I can't let you have any more
 money. And then you went open up
 another account to keep paying that bill
 and this isn't just, oh my gosh
 I was just clicking on something
 and suddenly I was $50000 bucks in the hole.
 Yeah, that's right.
 You knew step by step by step along the way,
 I'm going to keep going down.
 No, he probably didn't look at the amount of money he was spending
 because a lot of people don't do that.
 They will just start spending money
 and they will intentionally not look at it
 because they know that it's bad
 and they try to hide it.
 That's why I like a lot of people,
 like I've known a number of people
 they say they spent this amount
 of money on gotcha games,
 and if they actually ever
 go back and look at it,
 it's always more
 than what they assumed.
 It's the same with Gamba
 or anything like that.
 Take you at your word, sir. or anything like that. And the reason why
 is because subconsciously they know
 that they're wrong. Subconsciously,
 they know they're being stupid.
 That's the reason. Watching other people play video games and you giving them $500 at a time brought you
 more life, made you feel more alive than your own home?
 Yeah see this
 yeah bro like this guy's
 getting in on it because he knows what's going on
 when you use the Asimov channel have you encountered instances like this
 maybe a big gift or trauma dumps about racking up debt
 not really I mean like the thing is that
 I try to keep a pretty big, uh, a wall up, you know, I try to build the wall where like,
 I don't really let people try to penetrate into that and talk to me like that because it just
 like if it's like that's a that's like a boundary that I don't want to have
 people trying cross right cuz like one thing as a streamer this is one of the a boundary that I don't want to have people try and cross, right?
 Because like one thing as a streamer this is one of the most
 fucking socially taxing things for me personally
 it's like people try to pierce that boundary.
 They try to get inside
 your personal space for whatever reason
 i hate that like that's the one thing i really like if i was gonna say there's
 one thing i don't like about streaming that it. People try to get inside your space.
 Life that you're creating here.
 That's what you have to deal with
 because that's a case of
 you are living this quiet life
 of desperation
 and these little...
 I can't even wrap my head around this.
 I can't, it's stupid.
 Dude, my whole career
 has been sitting with people
 who've made some wild choices
 and I've never heard this. fifty thousand dollars i think the reason why
 he doesn't understand it is that he doesn't understand the reward structure of donating
 a lot of money on stream and then getting the recognition.
 Because he's thinking about it from paying people to play video games,
 that perspective.
 But if you thought about it from the perspective of I'm doing this
 so I can get validation and recognition,
 then I think it would make a lot more sense to him i've seen five thousand i've seen like
 ten that i've never seen fifty thousand bucks the second thing is
 is in you're a guy that doesn't tell his wife the truth.
 The third thing is you're a guy that put his kids financially at risk.
 Those are the things we need to deal with.
 Alex, are you telling us that you're done?
 Like you've called in to talk about the money aspect of this.
 So that makes me think, okay he thinks
 he's finished with his behavior.
 What is causing you to think
 that you're finished with his behavior
 is what I want to know.
 Otherwise what I tell you is not gonna
 matter at all yeah um so i mean we've started doing family counseling marriage marriage counseling.
 I've deleted all
 my accounts.
 There's also
 the probability that he's
 unhappy in his marriage and he's donating
 a lot of money to a female streamer, which
 is why he didn't tell his wife about it.
 I'm not saying that's what it is, but I'm saying that's what it could be.
 Given my life access to every single thing
 that I have...
 Did you give her the receipts?
 Yes.
 He's donating to Asian Bunny or Amarath?
 Yep.
 Every single transaction.
 Okay, all right.
 Good for you.
 I mean, we've been married for 17 years and I love my wife more than anything.
 She's my best friend.
 And I honestly have no idea why I got into it.
 I think that's part of the counseling them
 that we're going through good for you understand good for you
 so i'm proud to be honest no but i don't want to lose that
 okay i'm proud of you on that man you're gonna have to work through the money
 side of it and you're gonna have to follow through the money side of it.
 And you're going to have to follow baby steps and pay it off,
 hang on the line.
 We'll send you a copy of total money makeover and help you on your journey.
 Create your free every dollar budget today.
 The simplest way to budget for your life.
 Jesus, bro like...
 My dad won't give me access to my money?
 Oh my god this is nuts man
 This dude really got his life all kinds of
 fucked up I guess. I never even have seen
 this before. Oh my god
 this is dumb. Like I'll link y'all
 this video. I've never seen his channel or
 his show before this is nuts
 yeah there it is basically said bro we can't help you
 well i mean like here's the thing is the guy i mean
 that's hard to watch. It's not
 hard for me to watch. I've seen people fuck their
 life up all the time, man. Absolutely
 it's people just stupid like that
 really all there is to it
 The owner of the show always says credit cards are a scam
 Yeah that's because they are
 A scam
 And again it's what I said
 It's the people that should use credit cards
 Are the people
 That don't need to use credit cards are the people that, like, the people that
 don't need to use credit cards are the people that
 should use them and the people that do need to use
 credit cards are the people that shouldn't use them.
 So, that's what happens is they get these
 people... They get these morons right? is they get these people, uh, they get these morons.
 Right.
 And they get them on the,
 on the hook for like interest payments.
 And then like that shit gets away with you because it gets
 away from you.
 Like,
 cause the,
 the way like interest and principle and like compounding interests, like it's just the way interest and principle and compounding interest,
 it's just the way the numbers work.
 Why is this a problem?
 I bet all these people know that
 they know
 what a fraction is, They know about algebra too
 but none of them know
 what compounding interest is
 and so that's really what happens.
 Yeah, you need this to become rich?
 Yeah, exactly.
 You got solid advice for sure.
 I have no debt
 but now it's not very much money
 and it still teaches me
 small ways to save.
 Yeah.
 It's nuts, man.
 17 years of marriage
 is too many years
 to fuck up over stream donations?
 No,
 I think that if anything
 that probably goes to...
 That goes closer to what I was saying before about
 how it could just be a girl. Right? The guy's
 bored or unhappy with his marriage so he's
 doing it for attention and then the chat
 attention is also another component to it.
 So yeah, that's the way I see it, right?
 OnlyFans? Probably not OnlyFans,
 but just in general
 I think this is a very
 common thing. There's a lot of people on twitch that have very bad self-control
 uh big surprise video game website is full of people that has no self-control who could have
 ever guessed that so yeah you think he's a mod? I hope so.
 He better be a mod at this point. God damn!
 Let's be real. Dave Ramsey advice is great. People who live by
 Dave Ramsey advice are insufferable?
 I don't know.
 I mean,
 I feel like
 I'm glad that this guy
 just fucking
 he just
 he said him straight.
 I was glad
 that he said that
 because it was like
 if you understand the psychology of it, then it's easy to understand why it happens. Imagine he got banned after donating $50K, that'd probably be the best thing
 that could happen to him. Like, Imma be real.
 I'm not gonna watch this whole fucking thing. We did it. What's this?
 We're very confused. ACAB people people voting for a cop? Blue Line, people voting
 for a felon?
 Oh man, that's funny. That really Oh, man.
 That's funny.
 To be fair, that is really funny.
 Holy shit.
 God damn.
 That's actually hilarious?
 Yeah, that's really good, man.
 And what the hell is this? New B league so make you despise 343 why why what's this
 this a 20 minute video i'm not about to watch a 20-minute video actually you
 know what?
 This is a pop-up. I bet this is a really good video because he's only got 2,000
 subs and it's
 got 81,000 views. I bet
 he cooked.
 We got time.
 Guys, we have some huge developments happening in the Halo community.
 The co-creator of Halo essentially confirmed that Joe Staten and Paul Bertone were laid off by 343 Industries.
 It's gonna get heated. There is a lot to unpack, and it's given a glimpse
 into the future for Halo, Xbox
 and maybe even PlayStation?
 I'm gonna just get right into it
 and what the past couple weeks have revealed
 On Thursday, June 6th, Tom Warren, a reputable journalist at The Verge shared an eye-catching report around Halo that quickly went viral.
 Other journalists passed on the report claiming Microsoft
 is reportedly working on a
 remastered version of Halo
 Combat Evolved and could
 potentially release the game on
 PlayStation 5
 I can't believe that 343 is still in charge of that
 fucking game how is it that you release halo 4 halo 5 and halo, you have three strikes. You miss every strike. Well I guess that's what a
 strike is, you miss. I'm just thinking about something else. Uh, you dumb
 as fuck. What are you doing?
 They should get rid of them! Like how
 are they still there?! How Microsoft
 not shut down that studio yet?!
 Whoa. Cause it's still selling it's not first and foremost
 confirmed it's just a report and should be treated as
 just a rumor until proven otherwise let's's discuss it during the day. Remaster another
 Halo commentable.
 Immediately upon
 hearing this rumor,
 you might think,
 wait...
 You know what that
 says to me?
 That says,
 you know what?
 We know it's never
 going to get better
 so the only thing we can do is
 coast on millennial
 nostalgia every five
 years by remaking the same game.
 They're taking this, uh... The Skyrim
 approach.
 That evolved anniversary already exists, why would
 they make another version of it?
 Well I also wonder the same
 thing but the community went reaching
 for potential reasons
 and considered that it would introduce PlayStation players
 to Halo,
 and help grow the game's population
 since hardly anybody is playing it now.
 That's bad. I actually think that's a really good point,
 and I think this probably is going to happen. The reason why
 I think it's gonna happen is actually primarily because
 of the merger
 Microsoft had with Blizzard
 I think they came very close
 to getting regulated and
 having that merger blocked by the FTC
 so, I think that what
 they're going to try to do is they're going to
 try to bring more of their titles to other platforms and make
 more of their money off of Game Pass.
 I think also that's going to happen because...
 I don't know this, but I bet internally Microsoft sees
 the Xbox as
 not a product
 that they're going to have in the distant future.
 Which is smart.
 If that were the case though,
 That begs the question,
 Why not just port the Master Chief Collection to PlayStation instead?
 So people continue to think,
 Could it be a reboot of the entire Halo series?
 It better not be.
 Maybe it has to do with their supposed plan to make Halo on Unreal Engine? A decent amount of people seem to think so, with some
 believing that it could serve as a good
 starting game for 343 Industries.
 Any game that
 343 Industries makes about Halo is going to be bad.
 Because if you have an apple tree, it's not like one day
 that apple tree is gonna just have a golden egg
 that drops out of it.
 It's just... You're just gonna get apples.
 You can't expect... They not going to come up with something that's good. They've had three games to make a good game, three opportunities. They failed at every single one.
 They're going to fail at this too.
 They've only failed
 the warm-up, if you will.
 And once they release a new Halo
 CE, they can do the same
 for Halo 2 and Halo 3.
 That's an odd way to look at it
 in my opinion.
 It says, if 343 don't have a good understanding of what makes Halo special but instead of
 letting people who do understand it work on it we're wanting to keep the less qualified developers
 and give them years and years of more chances
 until they... I think Microsoft should just shut down that whole studio
 That's what i think they should do
 I'm being honest
 They just shut down the entire thing
 take it out behind the barn.
 Do what needs to be done.
 And by the way, they are lucky that they have had 10 years of life support to fail hopefully figure it out
 what the heck i can maybe understand if they wanted to have The original trilogy built for Unreal Engine
 But that doesn't even seem like a great idea
 Nobody cares about that
 First of all,
 The last time 343 produced a remake
 The entire art direction changed and gave people mixed opinions
 With numerous fans disapproving still to this day
 13 years later.
 Secondly, how many of you are willing
 to wait another decade before we get a truly new Halo entry?
 Assuming 343's work habits remain the same
 We'd be getting a new remake
 or remaster every
 four to five years. That's bad.
 Which means they wouldn't have a Halo 3
 remake done until at least
 a whole decade.
 Thirdly, will people care enough about playing the old Halo
 games again? Don't get me
 wrong, I think a Halo 3 remaster
 would be amazing to do.
 No it wouldn't. Here's the reality why. Because
 Halo 3 for its time was
 one of the greatest FPS games ever made
 but that time was
 2007
 The industry and the market has evolved
 and changed
 and 343 doesn't
 have a good pulse
 on what that
 market and
 industry want
 because if they
 did,
 they would've
 made Halo 5
 and Halo Infinite
 better.
 Like, I think here's the best
 frame that
 you can see it in.
 Halo Infinite did not release
 with a Battle Royale.
 ... Infinite did not release with a Battle Royale. Nothing will
 convince me that they are incompetent more
 than that.
 It's so obvious that people like battle royales, and you just didn't do it?
 You're stupid. Like, you don't know what you're doing.
 Like,
 I'm sorry. That's it. You're just stupid.
 That's a super dumb take?
 No, it's not.
 Battle Royale is one of the most popular game modes It doesn't require any team play
 You can play it at any time
 Halo could have easily transitioned into a battle royale
 And they chose not to do it could have easily transitioned into a battle royale,
 and they chose not to do it.
 That to me... It's like if I was Phil Spencer,
 I would say that is the one point on the graph.
 I don't need to make a line.
 That's enough right there by itself.
 You're done.
 It's crazy.
 Yeah, think about... crazy. Call of Duty,
 yeah think about remember whenever
 Call of Duty did it
 with Warzone?
 Totally fucking
 revitalized the franchise.
 Totally blew up
 the game again.
 They're just stupid
 but not in the current climate of halo no i don't know what the
 fuck they do however it seems that a fair portion of the current community are only having fun playing
 the classic Halo titles and some are getting tired of it. in today's environment it won't heard of that including me and it's not because they're boring
 it's just that after 10 to 20 years it's kind of like I feel like...
 It's the same game.
 Yep. It's stale, we need something fresh.
 Some people in the community are thinking that the classic Halo formula is outdated and they're wishing-
 Yes, that includes Sprint.
 The problem is that
 these people don't want to...
 I feel like the Halo fans have a
 very reductive view of the game, and I think that
 that reductive view has caused the game to not take risks
 and chances that it should've. Like for example
 Halo 4 with having loadouts
 turned out to be a bad idea.
 But it was a good idea
 that they tried it.
 Why would
 Sprint... does this really matter
 does sprint have anything to do with the problem like that's not why the game
 isn't good
 there would be modern mechanics in their
 supposed CE remaster,
 like Sprint. While that
 may sound like a nice idea on paper,
 that would give a drastically
 different experience than what the classic games
 had
 even if done minimally. I personally believe the way to go
 is to have a one-to-one recreation with improved performance, upgraded
 graphical fidelity and extra
 features outside of the legacy
 experience.
 They need to stop trying to remake
 anything that happens in Halo 1 2 or 3. Stop thinking about that.
 In my opinion the best foundation to build a Halo game off of is Reach
 because this is the Halo lore.
 Okay?
 In Reach, that's where a bunch of the Spartans were killed.
 And at the time of Halo 1, 2 and 3
 This is way in the future. And there's basically no
 Spartans left at all.
 Masterchief John
 117 is one of the only ones.
 I read The Halo books as a kid by the way.
 I know all of this.
 So yes,
 Reach is a much better foundation to build a story off of because
 you can go in a lot of other directions.
 You can sell better cosmetics with it too
 and also like you can introduce new archetypes of characters that make sense
 inside of the lore.
 Like,
 that's what they should do.
 Reach is a prequel?
 Yes.
 Reach should be what they build off of. Wasn't reach a prequel? Yes, Reach should be what they build off of.
 Wasn't Reach a prequel? It was. That's what I'm saying,
 right? Is like in Reach...
 Remember the last mission in Reach where everybody's dying
 and everything? That's because that's
 what happens in the story of the game.
 That's actually what happened.
 Remember SWAT mode?
 Yeah, well, SWAT was like an actual game mode
 in Halo 3, right?
 In Halo 2 it was a custom game.
 One thing I've been seeing around the report is that
 the wording of this...
 Same concept as SolidSoulPoet?
 Yeah exactly.
 ...was specifically saying that Microsoft are making a Halo CE
 remaster, not 343
 Industries which is a very
 good catch. If this careful
 wording was intentional
 that could mean that the team reportedly working on
 the game is not 343
 and instead a
 different developer. If this
 case, 343 are likely going to be
 managing or publishing rather than developing this project.
 No, nothing!
 Which I don't think is the ideal situation.
 It's not. The ideal situation is they're completely out of it entirely.
 They have nothing to do with it whatsoever.
 Man, you remember lighting up that bridge?
 Man... Man. Was this like Truth and Reconciliation mission?
 Probably would ultimately be better.
 One more big development happened around this report,
 and that involves Hayley Era,
 who's made ripples in the scene for her insider information,
 game knowledge, and occasional sarcasm.
 She never worked on Halo she didn't
 actually invent the battle rifle
 she was the first to
 report on Joe Staten's departure from microsoft
 and she also revealed last year that the master chief collection was wrapping up
 all further developments here's what she had to say about the report on the CE remaster.
 343 laid off Joe Staten and Paul Bertone,
 the original creators of Halo who did a lot of Halo CE story
 and mission design, and then decide
 to do a remaster, not
 confirmed, of the game
 without its creators.
 What an insult. I hope this-
 Bro, Haley is based. I hope the studio gets shut down. Abso-fucking-lutely. Has nothing to do with that by the the way. But yes.
 Why not remake the Halo games
 343 made? Makes no sense to start
 from the beginning because a remake
 only works if it has nostalgia attached
 to it.
 Like why would somebody want to play a remade version of a game that they didn't like
 studio gets shut down no i don't think she makes a good point and brings
 attention to how insulting
 the situation is, and
 I'm not the only one who agrees.
 Marcus Leto, the guy who
 helped create Halo
 and Master Chief, liked her post.
 Other Bungie devs,
 even former Microsoft executives
 have also shown support
 for her and liked her posts in the
 past. Some former 343 devs have
 too. If that doesn't speak volumes,
 I don't know what will.
 In my opinion, I think
 what they need to do
 is they, like Microsoft
 I don't
 think that the people that run Microsoft
 are stupid
 but the fact that they've allowed
 343 to kill one of their prime...
 There are two, in my opinion,
 two prime Xbox
 franchises.
 Halo and Gears.
 That's it.
 And if you are a guy that was in college
 in 2010,
 you were playing one of
 those two games
 or Modern Warfare 2.
 That's what it was all about.
 And now,
 both of those franchises...
 Think about how
 hard the Xbox showcase went like E-Day,
 The Gears of War E-Day at the very end.
 Oh my fucking god!
 It was perfect.
 Leaving a Like on that post,
 Marcus then made this post in response
 to why a remaster should be
 done. What if cut missions
 weapons characters and
 storyline elements were reintegrated along with more contemporary core mechanics
 that improved gameplay while remaining faithful to the original.
 I fully support that idea and I'd hope everyone would, it may not be the easiest
 goal to accomplish but that shouldn't stop developers from putting in the careful work
 required for it. If there's any time that Halo needs that care, it's now
 Marcus knows how to deliver
 Halo but he's not involved
 in any remaster which we'll
 be able to assume why with what I
 read next. The day following Let Well, like let's be honest
 right? I mean like every
 Halo game that's come out has been bad.
 I mean like I don't
 think that the people
 that are making the game right now have
 the insight how to make the
 game... It's like if you
 take the same people that are making
 current games, and then you have them
 make this is a, you know,
 I said this was wild too.
 Right?
 Where it's like,
 yeah,
 I want world of Warcraft two,
 but World of Warcraft to being made by developers that working at Blizzard now would just be dragon flight.
 That would just be another dragon. That would just be another
 Dragonflight, so like what the
 fuck?
 Again, an apple tree
 apples come out of an apple tree
 don't expect a pear Don't expect a pear. Don't expect a
 fucking grape.
 ...Post,
 Haley shared alarming
 insight into management at
 3 for 3. So last night, Marcus
 Leto, the co-creator
 of Halo, got exposed
 for liking the tweet just before he
 mentioned the Halo CE remastered.
 I want to share something that no one else
 knows. 343
 didn't want Marcus, they made
 it clear to both him and Marty
 that there was nothing for them...
 Marty O'Donnell was the guy who composed the music that you're listening
 to, I'm pretty sure now. He's the original
 music composer for Halo.
 343. I keep seeing fans saying
 that 343 should hire him
 so I just wanted to let people know. There's a reason I do not like
 this company but there are some good people there too. Sometimes people see my posts and
 think wow she really doesn't like 343. It's because 343 have done a lot of bad things that no one
 knows about i know things that I've never talked about publicly some for legal reasons
 but i do plan to in the future.
 It's not just what they've done to Halo it's also how they treated the original creators!
 Some at 343 have downplayed their contributions trashed their games and mock their fans.
 Right. So there are plenty
 of different reasons someone can like or
 dislike someone and that's no exception
 for 343. They're not
 perfect but they can certainly be better
 with some of the things they've done.
 That doesn't apply to everyone
 who works there, but unfortunately
 there are a lot of bad apples
 at the studio who give the whole company
 a bad name. And just like Haley,
 I also have my reasons for
 how I think of them. So respect people's
 reasons. It's only fair.
 Hardy Labelle,
 AOC multiplayer lead designer... it's only fair. Hardy Labelle, ALCE multiplayer
 lead designer... Should fire that guy.
 Should get rid of him. He doesn't know
 what the fuck he's doing. The game sucks.
 Nobody plays it
 what would we talk about
 is not a question
 to reach out one for a long time ago so
 I made it clear to him that they wanted
 nothing to do with him Paul Russell
 halos former environment artist and who
 gave halo its name once applied for a job at 343.
 They made him wait in the parking lot for an hour after the interview, their lead artist
 came out and said they'd call him back, but they never did. Later,
 a friend on the inside told Paul
 sorry, no bungee people.
 If Microsoft if microsoft shuts down 343 i will buy an xbox i will do it i I will buy an Xbox
 I'll even buy one of the good ones
 I would have never done this normally
 but i need a new machine to play Netflix on
 and it might just be time for me
 to upgrade
 I think that we might have to do...
 We got to put...
 Give five to ten?
 Well, if I give
 five to ten Xboxes, they're probably going to make
 more money off of that than they did out of Halo Infinite.
 Oh, so 343
 have had a no
 Bungie rule for anyone
 who works there? Why?
 What good reason can you think of for that?
 Ego, because they think that they can do it
 better than Bungie did.
 Even though what they did...
 So it's funny, right? Because like so
 it's really funny.
 Because if you look at...
 This is what...
 Don't we love graphs?
 Let's look at some graphs.
 So let's look at Destiny 2 And now
 Let's also look at Halo Infinite
 So you have the Halo Infinite player base, which is at 2,000 players right now on a steady and slow decline just
 creeping towards
 the eventual
 end of service
 circling the drain
 courting entropy
 it's over drain, courting entropy.
 Just it's over and they
 don't even know it.
 And you look at Destiny 2
 60,000
 people playing the game with a concurrent
 like 60,000
 and this is like a patch
 came out semi-recently
 but not recently enough to explain
 this.
 So, you want to know why they don't want to have bungee
 people on the team? It's
 because the people on the bungee team are going
 to make them look like fucking idiots
 and they think that they can do it better. Well, guess what? You can't
 you haven't and you won't.
 You look at the graph! That's what the graph says this isn't my opinion. It's just a fact!
 Ego bullshit, it is! It's just a fact. Destiny 2 should have been Halo in the Reach universe.
 And it's not!
 Fuck!
 Is that not just a petty grudge they're holding against Bungie? It's obviously not a matter of talent, qualifications or passion.
 So what is it?
 It sounds like they are wanting to preserve as much influence
 of their own
 as 343 regarding what goes into Halo.
 As if they're eager to make their mark on the franchise.
 Yep, that's what it's about.
 They're trying to make their mark.
 Yeah, they have made their mark. The same what it's about. They're trying to make their mark. Yeah, they have made their mark the same as those climate protesters made their mark on those fucking paintings protesting Stonehenge. Let's spray paint Stonehenge the fuck out of here.
 Should put them in jail.
 Put them in jail for ruining my game that I grew up playing.
 I think
 that would be fair. You can't argue that it's not this or that.
 Yeah!
 Bungie is the reason Halo even exists.
 Exactly. And they consistently delivered
 amazing games... There's a reason why 343
 even exists. Keep that in mind.
 That fans loved! Compare that to now, we've lost Halo's identity and would be lucky to have Paul compare it-
 Wait no bro this isn't in halo right is this in halo
 that's crazy.
 So now we've lost Halo's identity and would be lucky to have quality features that
 are also fun. The Bungie
 era of Halo was... See, they made
 Cortana not as hot as she used to be
 That's another mistake
 I look at the new Cortana, she doesn't have
 her boobs aren't as big as they
 used to be. What the hell were you thinking?
 Were you stupid?
 Why would you do that?
 ...become significantly better.
 Anyone should be able to see that, even if
 you enjoy a 3-4-3 game or two.
 Despite that, 3-4-3 have
 the gall to believe...
 We gotta pull up a chart.
 We're gonna pull up a chart.
 I gotta try and find a good one.
 Fuck, I can't find a good one. They don't have...ohhh
 Yep... What happened?
 What are y'all doing this for?
 What's this, four is fine?
 Yeah but look at six. Look at five.
 What're you doing?
 Why would you do this?
 It's crazy.
 Like, I don't understand.
 What is this?
 Four has got to... Yeah, I think three and four.
 Three and four
 is the perfect balance?
 Yeah.
 And look at it now.
 To be fair
 four was made by 343
 and somehow every game they made it worse 4 was made by 343.
 And somehow every game they made it worse.
 What were you thinking?
 Better off working on Halo
 without any of the original
 creators of the franchise. You know,
 the ones who literally made Halo
 and Xbox globally
 successful as the titans
 of the industry. Gosh.
 Anyway... How many of y'all bought an Xbox to play Halo back in industry. Gosh. Anyway, she goes on to say
 343 never wanted the
 original devs working with them.
 They only brought on Joe Staten after
 the disastrous Halo Infinite reveal.
 Joe offered to help Bonnie and steer 343 in the right direction as a favor,
 but they decided to hire him instead because they knew they were in real trouble and needed his expertise.
 But despite Joe being one of the
 creators of Halo, some
 idiots there still pushed back against
 some of his ideas. Alex Wakeford
 was a member of the Halo community
 who had become infamous in Halo circles
 for writing absurd articles
 about Halo and Bungie, and making
 claims that they included references
 to a word that sounds like
 grape in their games.
 He even wanted Marcus to confirm whether it was true or not.
 Alex also criticized
 Joe for referring to Cortana
 as... There it is.
 There it is.
 343 brought him out of the community.
 See, there it is. It's sad, bro.
 It really is sad.
 Girlfriend.
 Despite being disliked by many in the community...
 343 brought him onto their
 community. What a mistake bro.
 343 were also really mean to Jeff Steitzer
 Halo's iconic multiplayer
 announcer. They tried
 to replace him and made him aware of it, which upset him.
 Jeff wants to keep the details of it private though
 It's no secret that 343 also tried to replace
 Steve Downs-
 They trying to make it their own, bro.
 It's like, you know what?
 You know what 343 should do?
 They should go work at Netflix.
 Go work at Netflix.
 Go do... You know what?
 You're going to find a lot of people over there,
 they got the same mindset that you do.
 It's like all of these creative people...
 I love the creative.
 It's a pejorative in this case where they're not creating anything,
 They are like the opposite. The only thing that they can create
 Is a worse version of something that already exists
 It's insane, man!
 How do you do this?
 Yeah, like what the fuck?!
 Jen Taylor The voices of Master Chief and Cortana.
 Hold up.
 Can we talk about this too?
 343 disrespected Jeff Stitzer
 and wanted to get rid of him, Steve Downs, and Jen Taylor.
 The three voices you hear most in Halo.
 Excuse me, but the three of them quite literally gave character to Halo
 That's the game man. and helped form Halo's signature.
 They became staples of the Halo franchise, making Halo recognizable
 just with their voices. Almost everyone back then, not just
 Halo fans, knew Halo
 medals and how they sounded simply
 because of Jeff Stizer's
 voice and how he delivered his
 line. See it's These people have no respect.
 They have no respect for the game
 that they're trying to make
 and the shoulders
 that they're trying to stand on
 and in fact,
 they resent them.
 They resent the fact that everybody is positive
 about these other people,
 they're trying to put their mark on it bro.
 They're trying to put themselves in a situation
 where they look good.
 They hate the game, bro.
 Like yeah.
 It's jealousy I know it's just sad
 bro like
 you know. It's just sad, bro.
 You know what's funny to me about this? This is what happened
 in Lord of the Rings.
 You know,
 with Melkor and Morgoth?
 Like this is what he tried to do.
 And he was the bad guy!
 So what the fuck?!
 People knew him... so what the fuck
 it's people knew him as the voice of God yeah which is a testament to how impactful his voice in the game is and
 he's the guy!
 Master Chief and Cortana
 were just as iconic.
 Steve Downs doesn't have a ton of lines
 as Master Chief, but his voice
 is still memorable and naturally a big part of the main character.
 No matter how much fans and gamers in general appreciate him, 343 haven't cared for him.
 Jen Taylor has done so much as Cortana and delivers her lines with a voice that rings
 in your head, that you can hear just the thought of her character.
 She's become a perfect compliment
 to Steve Downs' voice. It's more than that,
 bro.
 Microsoft has put
 Cortana into Windows.
 That's how big the character is.
 However
 big you think Halo is,
 Windows is 50x
 that, 500x that.
 And has synergized beautifully with her character.
 They got rid of her?
 You know what, I'll tell you one thing
 they wouldn't have gotten rid of her if Halo
 Infinite had
 200,000 concurrent players.
 They wouldn't have done that
 because everybody knows who she is.
 It's because nobody knows who the fuck Cortana is anymore
 because the game fell the fuck off.
 Get rid of her before Infinite? Yeah, sure.
 I mean, Yucca said the same thing about Halo 5.
 Why? 343?
 Because they're bungee scum?
 They don't deserve to work on Halo now
 because they'll taint it with their
 gross mark? You know, now that I
 think of it, the name Halo
 is actually from Bungie. Yeah
 Maybe you should get rid of that mark too
 Everyone knows you're the greatest
 after all
 To finish with Haley's Everyone knows you're the greatest, after all. Yep. Jesus.
 To finish with Haley's post... It keeps going?
 She continues with,
 There are so many more things and stories that people
 don't know of. Jamie Grismer,
 former Halo design lead, even recently said that 343's relationship with Bungie was unnecessarily hostile.
 It's all about bro like this is you know what it reminds me
 of.
 It's like no dad I don't need
 your help.
 I can do it myself and then
 like you come out out two hours later or four hours later and the kid's trying to replace a tire on his bike
 and somehow now both of the tires are off the bike.
 He was just sitting there looking at it.
 Fuck you,
 Dad. Why'd
 you let me do this?
 Now I can't use my
 bike!
 A lot of things
 I've been saying for a while.
 This hostility is also seen
 in how 343's community team
 treats Halo fans.
 Just look at how Snickerdoodle and Cowgirly343
 have unfairly blocked
 hundreds of us from
 Wait Do they know about the pro?
 Does the Xbox leadership
 know about this?
 Like, I don't
 understand how Xbox headquarters
 isn't on fire.
 Like, how are you not on fire
 furious at this
 that this is happening. They're taking
 this game and they're
 destroying it!
 They're destroying the biggest franchise
 that you have!
 It's only natural I hate a... Oh!
 ... for three, my respect. What have they done to deserve it? They basically gave their
 middle finger to the creators of Halo
 and The Fan, destroying a
 franchise that revolutionized console
 shooters and online gaming
 and which built the Xbox brand. See, Halo 3
 is the best of the three but Halo
 2 was the best for its time
 Halo 2, I was talking about this
 with a friend of mine
 Halo 2 was the game that brought online gaming to the mainstream
 that was the game that that was the bridge that was the gateway drug. Now, you had people on PC that were on CS 1.6 right? For sure. And you know like CS originally right? Ultima Online. But I'm talking about mainstream console Andes.
 Halo was
 that game, bro.
 It's like the
 tenure of it is not to be understated. of our lives. I don't see how anyone could respect them after all that
 I know that's a lot of information
 to take in but bear in mind
 that actual Halo developers
 both old and new
 have supported Haley's post
 and know she's in regular contact with people on the inside.
 Bungie devs even follow her,
 and so do Ed Fries and Peter Moore,
 both former Microsoft executives who let... Here's how I know it's true.
 Because
 it's true with every other series
 where a new studio
 or a new group of people
 take the series and they change it.
 It's the same as with The Witcher,
 it's the same as with Star Wars,
 and it's the same with Halo.
 These people think that they can do it better
 the teams behind the original xbox and xbox 360.
 the things haley says have merit.
 With all the other stories we've heard about 343
 and some of the ridiculous things we still see,
 I think it's about time we stop 343... Look at those shoulders.
 You gotta understand understand Spartans are
 number one
 Olympic-level quality
 athletes and physical condition.
 On top of that,
 they have a suit of armor
 that makes them extremely strong.
 It's the Mjolnir armor.
 Then on top of that,
 there is genetic engineering
 that goes into them.
 Looks like a girl armor?
 So what?
 I bet you put that woman
 from that rugby team in that armor and it would look a lot more badass than that.
 Uh-uh, bro!
 The ridiculous things we still see? i think it's about time we stop defending them if you're still
 firmly on 343 side at this point you're either still growing you you're in denial, worried
 about your career or you simply
 just don't care about what happens
 to Halo. I really believe
 those are the only options.
 It's not necessarily wrong to be any of those, but it
 could contribute to making Halo worse
 in the long run. Ultimately
 it comes down to the companies running the
 franchise. The sooner we acknowledge
 that and deal with it, the less harm will be done to
 Halo. If you're still growing
 though, that's a bit of a different story
 Think about it
 At around the age of 5-6
 We start retaining memories This is the age
 of the average 343 Halo
 enjoyer.
 ...our experiences.
 We tend to look back fondly on
 what we grew up with or experienced first sometimes saying stuff like
 back in my day things were the best well it was an experience that happened before
 that time though even if we try to. Stuff like
 the golden era of Halo
 may only be experienced by those
 of us who were actually there.
 These people, they don't
 remember what it was.
 Like, Halo was the game
 It was THE fucking
 game
 And those of us who
 grew up with it
 as sad as this may be And those of us who grew up with it.
 Now, it's like... As sad as this may be,
 the majority of Halo players now
 have not experienced that golden era.
 Like, I remember...
 This is crazy.
 I think about this.
 Roosterteeth did an interview where they interviewed a bunch of people this is from like 2010 or something like that
 and they asked like what character do you like the most or do you relate to most too?
 And, like, 90%
 of the guys said Master Chief.
 Yeah.
 The fucking chief man like yeah that's what it was about
 and if that's not true
 it will be soon 343
 Industries was given complete control of the Halo
 franchise in 2012, which
 was 12 years ago now.
 Kids who were 5 to 6 years
 old back then were potentially
 forming fun memories of Halo 4.
 343's first new Halo.
 Because they didn't know...
 You know how old these 5-6 year old kids are now?
 17 to 18
 years old. Yeah, they're the ones tweeting about this shit.
 Halo fans who are 18 years old
 or younger grew up
 with 343s. That means they're stupid.
 That's pretty shocking to me. But it's not like you're
 wrong to be young. You just grew up in a different environment, played different games.
 It's nothing to be ashamed of.
 Your preferences were just based on what you experienced, which you can't always...
 He's trying to say,
 You don't know any better.
 It's not your fault man.
 See, you weren't there for the glory
 See this is like the same thing with WoW
 People don't understand I see people that are
 22, 25
 play WoW and they
 don't understand the way it used to be man.
 They can't... Like, they can't even imagine
 what it used to be.
 343 were the ones who created
 such a different experience of Halo
 and now we're
 having tensions and conflicts
 we've never seen before in the franchise.
 Half of the community hates the other half.
 Tons of fans aren't being
 listened to. Developers have become cold and careless, communications
 run dry in tone-deaf, and people from all sides are being treated with hostility.
 We don't deserve this, and there are plenty of
 developers who don't either, yet
 here we are." So
 who's to blame? This kind of
 stuff doesn't just happen by coincidence
 Look at this bro like look at this stupid ass
 fucking Optimus Prime
 knockoff garbage piece of shit joke.
 What the fuck are you
 trying to do with this?
 He got them skinny arms.
 You're not going to have
 a Spartan with arms like that. Get the fuck outta here.
 What's this limp dick bullshit? Who thought of this?
 A Pepsi Spartan.
 I really have to answer that for you?
 Come on, the Switch gears a bit.
 It's starting to look like
 a great time to forget about Halo.
 The Xbox Games Showcase just happened
 and we were shown
 a very solid
 lineup of games
 not just exclusive
 to Xbox either.
 Call of Duty Black Ops 6
 is coming
 there's an Indiana Jones game
 Fable, Perfect Dark
 Doom, Spirits of War
 and more
 nothing at all for Halo though
 which made some people freak out or cope
 with the infamous saying
 let them cook. Uh
 no no we shouldn't let them
 cook because we've done that
 for the past decade.
 And we've been given meals we don't like, didn't ask for
 or just don't satiate our hunger.
 The customer service... As I said
 I think that the fact that they didn't put a BR
 in the Halo infinite on release
 that to me if i was the xbox leadership i would have fired the entire studio
 leadership because of that it is like that alone
 Is such a stupid decision
 And it was totally unnecessary
 There's a BR now, it's too late
 Like
 That would have been it
 you intentionally don't follow a trend
 why
 not even trying
 prices are high, doorknobs are broken
 and anyone who's been
 paying attention
 can see how chaotic
 and messy the kitchen is
 we gotta get out
 of this restaurant
 quit ordering food
 and eating there
 and stop having them cook!
 To wrap things up though,
 Halo really is in a terrible place.
 That's clear for everyone
 or almost
 everyone... we're getting there.
 It's not clear for everyone
 because most people don't even care about it enough
 to even know. That's the reality
 is that nobody even gives a shit about it anymore.
 Nobody cares.
 That's what is really sad.
 I think that Halo Infinite came out, people are already tired of it.
 They're already, you know...
 It is what it is right?
 On the other hand we've got a nice stack
 of games on the horizon and I think
 we can all find something to enjoy
 if we just take a chance even if it's not a game give
 a chance halo isn't everything and while i used to think that i could only have fun with
 halo man is it easy to step away from it now.
 It feels so relieving to let it go.
 Many people have grown numb
 and apathetic to anything with Halo
 which is very understandable
 but they just don't know know what they're doing.
 It's like the thing is
 do you remember those missions
 in the library in Halo 2
 with the flood? That shit was actually kind of scary.
 And like that scene with Gravemind
 in Halo 2, that was so cool
 it's not the same as it used to be
 bro, like it's just, it's not the same as it used to be bro like
 it's just
 it's not like
 it's just not happening
 man like
 it's just
 remember to step away
 and let your mental
 well-being heal
 staying in an
 environment that
 garners so much negativity
 and plays with your emotions
 is not healthy. There are
 people out there who once loved
 Halo, and have grown so attached
 to it that they'll stick with it no matter what. But even if they're hurt by
 it, they don't leave. They'll continue giving it chances and forgiving mistakes just to end
 up getting hurt again and continuing the cycle. That's just abusive
 at that point. Please look out for
 yourself, seriously.
 I'm still keeping my eyes and ears
 open for anything exciting happening
 with Halo but it's safe to say that
 we're far away from anything
 good. Let me know what you think about
 all this in the comments though and
 don't be afraid to speak your mind.
 Well, it looks like
 some things never change.
 So yeah,
 I feel like this is really sad.
 I do because Halo
 was a franchise
 that I grew up with
 and if you go
 and look at my room downstairs
 I've got Halo posters everywhere
 I was drawing pictures of Master Chief
 shit like that. Halo
 was like my game. I went from being obsessed
 about Halo to being obsessed about WoW
 and I was right, by the way
 this video was great. These guys only got
 2,000 subs so make sure to give the video a like
 give them a sub if you liked it man man. 343 fucked it up, yeah.
 And it's so sad that anybody
 is trying to act like these pitiful-ass
 fucking joke developers
 that can't come up with a good game in 10 years
 should be anything more than fired like who the fuck
 goes to work every day for ten years and brings out bullshit and then they don't get
 fired. Like you do that at your job probably for three days, you're going to get fucking
 fired. Like what are you talking about?
 How is this even a question?
 It's not even a possibility that
 this is a good or bad decision.
 It's awful, and so diversity hires
 it's not diversity hires, it's people
 with an ego
 that think that they can do it better
 than the people that made
 the game. Well, if you can do it better
 then why aren't you making your own fucking
 game? I'll tell you why. Because you can't.
 That's it! And you don't want to follow
 trends, you wanna- oh, I wanna do
 it my way, I'm gonna do it MY WAY
 let's do it MY way! Okay fine
 You did it your way. Three times it didn't work. Stop doing it your way.
 It doesn't work. You're bad. Like that's
 it.
 It's so sad also
 because Xbox grew up with Halo. Yeah bro like
 Halo died like Xbox died in relevance
 when Halo died.
 Bro, those stocks
 are the same.
 Halo and Gears go up!
 Xbox, oh we love Xbox! Halo and Gears are up. Xbox, oh we love Xbox! Halo
 and Gears are dead. Oh, Xbox dead.
 Ooh, Xbox dumb is bad. Ooh.
 That's what it is.
 343 was the first company in Trendster to show
 all these companies how to make games and act today? Yeah.
 It's just sad. They don't even
 fail fairly. They had a huge head
 start, and they failed harder than starting from scratch.
 Well,
 it's crazy that
 like... it's crazy that like
 I think
 what I find to be so
 incredibly fucking annoying
 is the arrogance of
 it. The absolute unfettered, uncontrolled arrogance
 where it's like, oh, well, we know how to do it.
 We know what to do and that's what it's all about
 it's about them acting like they fucking know what
 they're talking about and they don't and the thing is like if halo if like
 three four three said you know what?
 Bungie doesn't know what the fuck they're doing.
 We're going to make our own game.
 And they went and they made Halo 4
 and Halo 5
 and it was fucking insanely good, everybody would be saying,
 yeah, great job guys. Great job! You're awesome!
 But you didn't.
 You didn't. That's what it
 was. Pee-wee does, nobody
 does a thing but complain. Yeah, exactly.
 Cliff isn't even part of yours
 anymore as well? Yeah, exactly.
 It's sad, man. Video is amazing to be applied to so many things, not just Halo?
 Yeah, that's what's fucked up about it, right?
 We see this about Halo, but how many other franchises...
 I bet WoW was like this too, bro.
 I'm so sick of uh as i said man it's
 like melkor and lord the rings you just you
 you can't make anything your self and so you just gotta everything else up
 i'm so tired of this bro like it's so exhausting uh is all yeah it's all of them. Yeah, it's all of them! Like I...
 I'll be right back. so um so so so All right.
 All right, we're, all right we back, we're back.
 Okay.
 This is a what's this here real quick?
 I'm gonna read it. This is designed what's this here real quick? Let me read it
 This is designed to happen whenever activist college kids started working in the real world fucking arrogant dumbasses
 You know what a lot of devs are it feels like to me
 This is like people that have problems with their parents it's like you know no dad i'm gonna
 do it the way i want to do it i'm going to get a piercing it's no you can't tell me what i'm not
 going to church i'm not going to do that. No, I'm going to be my...
 I'm going to do what I want to do.
 Get the fuck out of here, bro.
 Like, god damn.
 Participation trophy. Yeah,
 I'm a winner. I got 7th place
 in track and field out of 10 people.
 Out of 5 people more like it. It's nuts, man.
 If you let them cook and they feed you rats, would you go back? Yeah.
 We did let them cook. That's that's why i said with halo infinite
 i said they need to take as much time as they need
 the fact that halo infinite did not release of the br the BR?
 How'd you let that happen?
 Or a forge?
 Yeah.
 And at a certain point...
 Because, okay,
 if you have...
 If you're a manager
 and you are...
 You work at...
 You're a manager of a McDonald's
 and instead of hiring employees You're a manager of a McDonald's.
 And instead of hiring employees,
 you hire baboons.
 You have four baboons
 in the kitchen.
 And you have those four baboons in the kitchen for ten years.
 Imagine what that kitchen looks like after ten years.
 I'll show you what the kitchen looks like after 10 years actually.
 Where is it? There it is. Looks like that!
 A lot of shit in that kitchen.
 And at a certain point...
 It's kind of your fault for hiring the baboons.
 Because you can say,
 Oh well they're messing everything up. Yeah but
 why'd you keep them in there for 10 years?
 Didn't you figure this
 out? Didn't you think to
 yourself, hmm
 maybe I shouldn't have people doing this.
 Top comment? Yeah,
 it's crazy. MoneyHungry343
 executives and shareholders too?
 Nah, it's not for money bro like
 they just don't know what they're doing man.
 The inner studio after a character that betrays Master Chief? Do you get
 it yet? I don't even remember that happening to be honest
 with you. The fire 343
 people were right. See, I said it
 Remember how I said it last year
 I was one of the first people to say that you need See, I said it. Remember, I said it last year.
 I was one of the first people to say that you need to kick these losers to the curb.
 Everybody got mad at me.
 They said, You can't say that.
 I said, I said it.
 It's a fact and now everybody is saying that I was it. It's a fact, and now everybody's saying
 that I was right.
 I was right. Everybody knew it.
 No, look at the
 pink comment. Nice music.

 But like in a general sense, I think he's a good guy. He's a nice person.
 Right? He's a good person. So yeah.
 Is he Republican? Yeah, he is. You sure what the video title was?
 Bungie Leaks to Make You Despise 343
 Somebody went and linked this to me, they want me to look at it
 So yeah. Wawa Chatter Go Figure
 Yeah I know. Saying VR is oversaturated
 Is a fallacy i know
 well like you go you look at this right real quick look at this
 um br Um... BR.
 Let's see, where we got?
 Oh Halo Infinite is actually doing pretty well I guess they're doing like an event?
 Yeah they are doing like an event? Yeah, they're doing a
 fucking tournament.
 Apex Legends.
 Apex Legends on
 a random day. Fortnite. Yeah.
 Look at this. Three games games all br is doing better
 every single one of them minecraft got a vr yeah there's a reason why brs are popular
 so i'm actually a big fan of Battle Royales.
 I really like
 Battle Royales, I think they're great.
 The reason why I like them is that
 every game is different.
 The way that you play the game it's like a roguelite
 game or roguelike game
 and also you can play it
 solo and you don't have to rely on anybody
 else. I think my favorite
 BR...
 Looking back,
 I think the best BR was either Warzone on release or PUBG.
 Yeah. on release or PUBG? I think it was the
 best one.
 I just, yeah, I'm gonna
 be honest, I think it's the best one.
 Blackout was dope. I hated Blackout out i remember train would always want me to
 play blackout and i was like oh like i played it and i was just like oh my god i hate this game
 like i just didn't like it like Like, I'm sorry. I wanted
 to like it. It wasn't...
 It just was not me, man.
 It just was not for me.
 Verdansk? 10 years ago? Nah,
 it's 2020. I remember because
 I watched Nick play it a lot.
 Nick Merckx
 because he was playing
 on controller.
 I always thought
 he was a cheater.
 I was like yeah
 you played on controller
 but like
 you think
 you could shoot them
 with that auto aim
 shit. Uh-huh, yeah right.
 That aim assist.
 I would always get mad because his tracking was
 so good. I would be so
 pissed watching that shit.
 Remember Release Apex?
 Yeah, Release Apex was crazy good.
 Well, I think
 Release Apex was...
 For whatever
 reason, I can't see players in Apex.
 I don't know why, but like the visuals
 in the game...
 I just can't easily discern
 where a player is in Apex.
 It sounds weird, but yeah, it's
 brown and red? Yeah! It's just not...
 It's just not there. And so
 that's on purpose? Yeah, well I don't like
 it. But
 I'll say this.
 Visual clutter?
 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
 You ever play Rust?
 Yeah, I put hundreds of hours in it.
 Probably over 100 hours into Rust.
 I love Rust.
 Like, I got friends who play Rust a lot.
 You tried Titanfall 2? No.
 It has bad anti-aliasing? Whatever it is, it's problematic.
 Like, I think Fortnite is probably...it's a great game but
 I personally just like pubg and warzone more
 you tested to see if you're slightly colorblind? No, I'm not.
 I did a test and I'm not color blind at all.
 Yeah like...I don't know. It's just that I'm not so
 no it's just the way the colors flow together uh why don't you like valorant
 because i don't play it enough.
 I think that's the reason.
 Like,
 I think that if there was nothing to play
 and like,
 I was younger
 I would probably play
 Valorant a lot.
 I kind of like
 the aesthetic
 of Counter-Strike more
 but I think
 Valorant is
 more interesting
 whereas like
 I think that CS
 is like a Valorant is a game
 That when it loses popularity inevitably
 The esport of it will die
 Whereas CSGO will never lose its esport popularity
 Because of how easy it is to
 understand the game.
 Power Ramp
 Movement makes it so trash? I mean, like
 look, I grew up
 playing these games, right? I was a huge fan of these games.
 Like, I played CS all the time.
 I had CS on the Xbox.
 I played it at school every day.
 Like, I was really, really into it.
 Let me actually make sure... By the way,
 I'm gonna make sure I get my filter updated for this
 Uh, Filter Blade update
 Available, load new version
 Load a new version again
 Okay, that's like a bug.
 Let me see here.
 3.25 Okay.
 Let me see if I can open this up.
 Hmm. I'm getting a weird bug.
 Has anybody had this happen?
 I go to load new version, and then it doesn't do it.
 Hmm. it yes same okay i'm just gonna do what i'm
 going to do is i'll just do the first
 three or four acts like i don't need a
 loot filter for the first like
 4x honestly like i usually install
 a loop filter at like act eight or like you know as soon as i get into maps
 control f5 ah you know what they did say to do that right
 it's a hard refresh
 weird man had to use incognito
 ah you can download just put Ah.
 You can download, just put it in your folders?
 I can't even... Yeah, I don't know what this is.
 My POE crash went from 3k to 90k?
 Jesus, that sucks.
 What build are you league starting?
 I'm going to do a Necromancer build.
 I have a talent tree.
 Oh, I have a talent tree for it, but...
 I don't really have a lot of guidance for it at all.
 And so I'm pretty much gonna play it like...
 The only thing that I really like copying is like talent trees, and I have...
 Oh wow! Okay great! So...
 Alright create new filter. Okay we've got never sync. Let's do
 hmmm Let's do... Yeah, let's do this.
 Semi-strict.
 Export to PoE.
 Okay, public.
 Auto load. Sync. click, uh, auto-load,
 sync or download. Yeah, semi? Yeah, I'm gonna do semi.
 Please enter a valid name. Oh, um...
 Sleekhold? um sleek called
 settlers of katan. Okay.
 Oh.... so Great. Okay, so it should be good then.
 Okay hopefully I don't have to restart. usually it does it without me having to restart
 do you think this is a good time to start poe for a new player
 this league actually is compared to the other leagues.
 This is a better league to start as a new player
 because they remove some of the friction points that new players experience.
 Okay. move some of the friction points that new players experience.
 Obviously, guys, PoE is really hard to get into.
 By the way, this is my build guide, just so you guys understand.
 This is the build guide I have, okay?
 So yes if this doesn't excite you
 you're probably in the wrong place.
 In back of it, eight years? Yeah, yeah, for sure.
 Many nodes, big brain. Yeah, I know,
 right? But it's planning out where they're gonna
 go and everything like that.
 I'm thinking
 we go
 here, I'm not even going to get
 this survivability stuff
 all this, I don't think I really need it
 I'm thinking that we go here
 we get this here first
 and then we probably immediately hit these nodes
 here. This one
 here minion accuracy won't matter
 until later in the campaign
 So like we hit this and then I'm thinking
 We probably go to the life node,
 we don't even do reservation efficiency. I really want to hit this death attunement
 as soon as we can so we have like the higher specters and minions
 and then we'll probably go i'm not going to go with this this is defensive i won't need defensive
 until yellow maps and then we hit both of these. We clear campaign,
 I finish out the defensives,
 I get this one here over here,
 this is a really big one
 and then I kind of round
 this out.
 What's over here?
 Damage energy shield golem what's over here
 damage energy shield golem commander how far away is going that's pretty far away i guess i mean the second golem is
 gonna be my i'm gonna go carry and go on be my... I'm gonna go Carrion Golem
 1, and then I'm probably gonna go Stone or
 Chaos Golem 2.
 So...
 Yeah.
 You check the new bandits? No, I didn't.
 I did not. I just assumed that I was going to go with kill all and get two points.
 Yeah, that's what my plan was.
 Bill O'Leara?
 I don't know what the updates were.
 Now Kill All is one?
 Really? Okay. Um... now kill all is one really okay um
 what are the different bonuses All res. alera is 15 all res so they haven't been changed because that's what it's always been seven what are y'all counting down for but you get one passive too Creighton's
 8% move speed?
 I don't think that matters.
 Maybe I should help Alara.
 Elira?
 Cues suck?
 Yeah, it's stuck.
 It'll be ready when it's ready, man.
 Like, I'm gonna log in whenever I can.
 I mean, it's not that complicated.
 Help Elira 100%? Yeah 100 yeah yeah let's do it let's do that did you buy supporter pack
 already i didn't actually i probably should
 oh it's going down it's going down. It's going down. Okay, here we go.
 Alrighty, boys!
 Ooh, we're ready!
 You gonna do MC in Season of Discovery?
 I heard that the MC in Season of Discovery? I heard that the MC
 in Season of Discovery was like
 literally a big red ball.
 That was it.
 Just a big, red fucking ball.
 It was like The Last boss or something, it sounded
 so stupid. Why no melee
 for this patch?
 Because I didn't
 feel like any of the melee builds were interesting.
 That's kind of the reason.
 Also, Melee's buff 2x. Well for example, melee is still melee at the end of the day it's still melee you still have to get up close to them and take the hits and i'm sure that
 it will play well but this is what i'm really hoping for.
 I'm really hoping that
 I can take advantage of the melee buffs
 with some things at least,
 I don't know how the support gems work for melee damage, but hopefully
 with the minions that I have, I can maybe
 dip a little bit into that myself.
 2x totem buffs? Yeah,
 that's what I'm really hoping for true melee will be expensive as
 yeah and i think also everybody will be playing at this league like i went through every melee build
 that you could have played and i didn't see any of them that seemed good.
 Even the slam build
 that I was thinking about going
 didn't seem that appealing to me.
 Did they buff melee?
 They did massively.
 The minions are melee, it's a melee build? Yeah, exactly.
 Didn't know you were going to play the start of the league. What building are you gonna play?
 I'm gonna play Minions.
 Animate Guardian will be insane? Oh, I'm going to be using Animate Guardian.
 Yeah, I will.
 Like back in the day
 I had like Animate Guardian
 with all of the expensive shit on them, right?
 Like the axe and all that.
 It's been the win league cyclone
 i just
 i really strongly considered going cyclone but the problem is that i don't think cyclone is really good unless you have massive area scaling
 cycling silver done yeah Cyclone's so overdone. Yeah.
 Cyclone lost Physical Tag, so it's nerfed?
 Cyclone has huge AoE? No, it doesn't have AoE like getting 50 minions on the screen and having them
 do everything for you has aoe also i'm uh i will take trades from other players
 but i'm not taking any uh any free stuff from anybody.
 Like, you know, if I'm trying to sell something on a currency thing,
 I would do that with somebody else.
 That's no problem.
 But like, I don't take currency or anything from other people.
 So just keep it in mind.
 No ABC? No, no. The game's all about character progression.
 If you have people give you the stuff the stuff, there's no reason even to play
 the game. I think that it's
 fine for you to do that if you want
 to but like my experience
 that I wanna have is I wanna play the game and
 play through it myself right?
 What's the last league I played?
 I played Affliction League a little bit.
 But only for like maybe three days.
 I'm trying to think of
 the last league. Like, I know for a fact
 I played Ritual like crazy
 but I think I played...
 Oh,
 I played Calandra.
 Yeah,
 I played Calandra
 a pretty good amount too.
 Necropolis was garbage? Yeah, maybe it was good amount too
 necropolis was garbage yeah maybe it was it was necropolis i don't remember
 man
 you still playing the first descendant i
 am
 uh i am i'm actually almost done like
 perfecting a new character.
 I've been trying to level up Bunny and get all that done,
 and I only need two more level 40s
 so I have every single one locked down and finished.
 I did play Ultimatum,
 I played Ultimatum a lot.
 Love the First Ascendant,
 it's a great game.
 How many hours do you have on PoE?
 Probably a few thousand,
 couple thousand.
 I played it ever since closed beta.
 It went from 75 to 65 in four minutes,
 that's fine.
 I think it depends, right?
 It's probably the closer you get to
 the bottom of the queue,
 the slower it happens
 and like
 the people that are at
 a really,
 really high
 queue
 are probably going
 to end fast
 because there's more
 people
 that are out
 of high
 queue
 Like you guys
 ever had this
 at McDonald's drive-thru where
 there's seven people in line and two people
 pull out of the drive-thru and leave? That's
 what's going to happen whenever you're at a long queue.
 People are going to see they're on a long queue
 and they're going to be like, oh fuck, I'll just play later on, right? And so they're at a long queue and they're gonna be like oh i'll just i'll play later on right
 and so they're going to drop out
 let's hear you don't take stuff want to put the game oh no that's why
 I play a lot of games right but it depends on what the game is and also like
 like if i was if i was trying to like finish out a build or do something
 for like expectacle for stream i would absolutely take people's stuff.
 A hundred percent. But that's not the
 experience that I'm looking for in the game right now.
 That's all.
 Look forward to your build?
 Yeah, I do too. I really hope it's gonna go well
 Let me make sure I get all this set up. We'll make sure we get the music on and everything
 There we go. Okay
 All right Should be good Okay. Alright.
 Should be good!
 Hashtag ad? Nope.
 Playing it for free.
 Don't forget the golden hand job quest uh wait which one kind of minion build zoom answer yeah
 do you use scripts or macros for PoE?
 No.
 Oh, it's a multiplayer game.
 So it's cheating.
 Like, I have no problem
 cheating in something like Elden Ring
 with a macro or cheating in
 Granblue Fantasy because
 it's not an online
 game, so it doesn't really matter
 but
 I don't cheat on games that So it doesn't really matter. But, um...
 I don't cheat on games that are
 multiplayer.
 They actually are partially? Yeah but like not-
 It's not the same thing right
 and also i feel like you don't need a script in poe like what script would
 you have in poe
 i feel like yeah there's there's nothing also like here's another thing I want to let y'all know.
 What do you call it?
 Flasks?
 You just use the orbs.
 Yeah, just use the orbs.
 What's the problem with that?
 Except trade macro? I haven't really any of that. Have you used macro for flask? No, I never did.
 You can orb light flask?
 Yeah...I want to use it myself.
 Oh shit! I'm almost done! Okay here we go.
 Also like, I'm not going to try and speed run
 the campaign so if you want to see somebody who's
 finishing the campaign really fast I'm not that guy.
 I wanna play through the world and do it at my own pace, y'know?
 Okay!
 So we have Settlers of Catan...
 And we're gonna do right there
 standard. Alright! I did do that, right? Yeah
 I did. Okay. And we have the witch...
 okay. Asmon...
 ...Nephro again.
 Alright!
 Let's fucking do it.
 Skip all the tutorials...
 Okay, let's get to work!
 It's weird playing quick-to-move.
 Okay... Okay.
 Alright! Dude, I haven't played in so long...
 I don't even feel a lot- it's weird playing a quick to move game because i haven't done that in such a while
 okay let's go fireball yep
 yeah it feels weird to play again.
 Oops! I missed. Alright now I get Arcane Surge right?
 Yeah I do.
 Go ahead and buff this up.
 This makes me do more damage and also makes me save mana.
 We gotta fight this big fat guy.
 Watch.
 This obviously isn't really what I want to play,
 but it's just what I have to do right now in order to get the minions.
 And we're about to fight the first boss here.
 There's a special
 chest piece that I always get off of
 this boss here, watch watch it's called tabula rasa no I thought i'd be a dead woman by now.
 It didn't drop!
 What happened?
 Is it broke?
 It must be broke, guys.
 Yeah! I'm pretty sure...
 Yeah.
 What the hell?
 That's weird.
 What the he-
 Damn, look at everybody!
 I haven't played a League Star in such a long time.
 I'm not familiar with that.
 Okay... um... there we go.
 Okay... alright what are we gonna get?
 Rolling magma, raised zombie- okay well there we go! We got raised zombie already.
 Okay great and then we'll also get our first level We got Ray Zombie already. Okay, great.
 And then we'll also get our first level and we're going to put it right into there.
 Okay.
 And we do intelligence over two.
 Do I want to do quick recovery first?
 I don't think I will.
 I think we're going to towards Sacrifice and Spiritual Command first,
 uh-and then we'll move our way up to um...
 Is it this one here? Yeah, Death Attunement.
 Yeah, I think that's probably the best idea okay let's go
 talk to johanna and go to king's march oh yeah
 visit kingsmart this is the thing, right?
 Introduction
 Start early? Yeah let's
 start right now.
 My people the Kagurans are attempting to build a settlement near here. We could use someone with your talents.
 You know the land, you know the dangers. Will you join us? I'll await your answer in King's March.
 Let's do it! Alright we're gonna visit Kingsmarch now.
 Ooh new loading screen.
 I can't! Okay, never mind.
 Alright, so...
 Um...
 So you've got Rogg, Isla, Chuzin, Danig, Faustus...
 Johan. So these are a lot of the people- some of them from Heist and the other ones are also from uh...
 Expedition, obviously.
 Okay, let's talk to this guy.
 ... all exiles in this foreign land. As the King's Hand,
 I serve as treasurer of King's March.
 Come to me for all
 financial and resource management matters.
 Okay. We have contracted
 Captain Faustus of the Fair Marylene for ties to the markets of Wraeclast.
 Speak to him next, I am certain we will all be working together very closely.
 Okay.
 Hail! As it is Calcutta's name. Okay. Take me up as these Caldicott and say, you've just met your most important ally in this
 strange new town.
 I am Faustus the captain of the fair mary dean does the intro section change kind of well

 for a small fee of course wow okay good luck to you! Ahoy there!
 Alright currency exchange...
 Oh wow! I want-
 Holy shit!
 Okay, I want Mirror of Calandra
 I have Scroll of Wisdom.
 Okay, it's looking like there's no sellers right now.
 We'll have to check back in a couple of minutes, okay?
 Next, you should familiarize yourself with
 our recruitment processes introduce yourself to ralph hire a
 recruit and then return to me to discuss placement okay oh johan and danny brought you on don't worry i'll get all the
 necessary paperwork shortly i'm ralph the meridian free Traders, my guild...
 This is a free game by the way.
 ...executing the charter. I connect laborers and specialists with those who have available jobs in capital!
 I've heard you may be
 making some decisions around here,
 so we should definitely do
 business. Okay.
 Always a pleasure.
 Talent improvements?
 Establish recruitment? i'm gonna do it oh
 established mining what's this or a cham ore, and I need more gold.
 Okay.
 Alright, so that's done.
 And now let's go over here and talk to this guy.
 So this is my town.
 Nice to meet you.
 I'm the harbormaster around here.
 But there ain't much to master.
 If you catch my drift,
 could use some investment in our dogs and shipping.
 Okay, so... Don't give up.
 Ooh, I need to get more ore.
 This is my own little city here
 and I have to build this city up through the entire league
 This is mining? Oh, I'm gonna do this!
 Oh wow!
 Nice! Okay, ore marked...
 Manage workers.
 Can I bring a worker?
 Hire or recruit by speaking to Rolf and investing gold.
 Let me go over to Rolf and invest the gold.
 Town recruitment!
 Okay...
 Wait, I just spent the gold he gave me? So now I don't have the money... We gotta go back.
 Yeah, we gotta go back. Off to a great start? Yeah. I failed...
 I actually failed the tutorial.
 That's incredible.
 Can't...
 Can I buy more gold on the store?
 Like what is this?
 There's gotta be...
 I think there's something wrong, guys.
 Can I buy
 like an attack speed or something like that?
 Uh, no.
 I'm not even gonna worry about that.
 It's fine. Let's just keep going.
 Let's get to...
 Let's get a little bit farther.
 I'm not gonna say how far we're gonna get or anything like that
 but let's just get a little bit farther
 and then we'll turn back around
 and do the rest of the League mechanic.
 That way I have enough gold to really
 kinda get into it.
 Okay! We have our first minions here. There
 we go! We've got three dick boys... I think we
 have an maximum of- oh okay, it's only three.
 I thought was four.
 And so it begins.
 What's this red thing?
 Oh, that's the...
 Ooh.
 Okay, zombies are leveled up.
 Nice.
 Clear the area for the prospectors.
 Crimson Iron. Okay.
 Let's click on it.
 What happens?
 Okay, this asshole comes and attacks me.
 Well I think I have to kill these.
 The music is good, I like that!
 Get the fuck outta here!
 Can I kill the other one?
 Nice! Okay, well we got some more ore Nice.
 Okay, well we got some more ore and does it show me how much gold I have?
 It does.
 Okay, um...
 Alright, well let's keep going.
 So we'll try to loot all of these in each of the different areas so that way we'll be able to
 you know, loot as much of this as possible. Oh looks like I lost a zombie too.
 Zombie boy dead?
 I know.
 It's okay. You guys are gonna see how much
 minions they're gonna ramp.
 I'm gonna be honest like minions or op as in like early game like they're actually broken so like yeah it's gonna go crazy But yeah, I've been playing this game.
 Obviously a lot of people...
 This isn't really much of a game
 I play a lot on stream, but
 I actually started playing PoE
 in the closed beta.
 I remember a fateful night that
 I came home from my dad's house and I saw Kriperion, who was my favorite streamer,
 talking to Chris Wilson about this game path of exile
 and i really like how it plays the um
 the war while you're walking so you don't have to wait for it
 i wish more games did something like that.
 It says 12? Yep!
 And I immediately started playing the game,
 because they had a free weekend and then i played past the free weekend
 i just i'd spend money to get in
 i thought we found that like uh elite it does like fire damage okay i got one goal
 all right Let's go this way. We'll get this
 and we'll go inside of here
 Okay Okay.
 How much dox farming? For me, it was Vaal Temple at the time.
 Vaal Temple was the endgame and you would go through a vol temple four times. There were four difficulty notes I
 Just got a chromatic what the fuck oh
 My god What the fuck? Oh my god.
 One thing that's like really refreshing about PoE, by the way...
 Is the fact that you can die at level 3.
 You guys saw that? Like I kinda fucked around there and I almost found out.
 Yeah the ledge farming... See, I didn't do ledge.
 That was before my time.
 Okay, let's
 do this again.
 Because we need to make sure
 We get all this so we can keep maxing everything out
 Is it quick to move?
 Unfortunately, it is
 I wish it was WASD, but it's not
 I need more mana on I almost got caught. Nice!
 I wonder if I'm supposed to get loot off of that.
 Damn, these entailed corpses... Are these new? I don't remember these at all.
 No, yeah, I haven't played since then.
 Okay... We gotta kill this guy here.
 As soon as I get Summon Phantasm on Kill and that support, uh...
 I'm going to be really a lot better off than i am right now
 things right now are a little rough you know
 okay and we pick that up and let's go back.
 I think I'm actually going to go with this before I go the other direction.
 Loot filter? Oh, I'll get a loot filter soon. Don't worry about it.
 Okay and we will go with Quicksilver obviously
 And then...
 Summon Phantasm? Let's go with this.
 Okay.
 And we have one more to do.
 Alright. So now what I think I'm going to do is I'm going to do Summon Phantasm
 in place
 of
 Arcane Surge
 and then we're going to move the zombie thing
 over to Fireball.
 Oh, I guess actually
 I can have both of them. I didn't realize it's a chest piece.
 That's garbage.
 Just get rid of that. Okay.
 Am I well rested? Yeah, no,
 I'm good man. I'm good. All right let's keep going
 We're gonna do the league mechanic again when it- when we kill Brutus
 I think that's the best idea
 Black storm the best idea. Do I have to do the Fetid Pool?
 I always, like...I heard they
 changed it but I always forget anyway.
 No? Thank God!
 And you'll see like soon I'm gonna start ramping.
 As soon as I get skeletons it's going to be over.
 Oh, I need that helmet.
 Okay, let's go this way.
 I'm still at four?
 Or...
 Oh, I'm at at five now oh my god
 you need more money
 is it fine
 is it fine
 is it fine oh it's summon phantasms oops oh it's summon phantasms oops oh it's summon phantasms oops okay yeah the phantasms are really good low level
 yeah see every time my zombies kill something they summon one of these spirits.
 There's a chance for them to summon the spirits which helps out a lot.
 It'd be cool if zombies were based off the mob that raised them.
 Well, that is in the game. They're just called phantasms.
 And there are actually certain phantasm's that they've actually had to nerf a number of times because of how overpowered
 they are.
 Spectres?
 Oh yeah I meant to say spectre. Sorry.
 Yeah. I will get spectres at about level 30
 Maybe a little bit before then
 Okay here we go. Kill this one over here. Make sure I get that flask.
 Oh, I can't! I'm too low level.
 Oh, I'm not even level 6 yet! Oh my god!
 Okay, we actually need that.
 Blind to level?
 Okay.
 There we go.
 I don't think I have a belt either. No, I don't.
 We'll do that. Alright let's go! There is one more.
 Gonna start ST Bleed? Yeah, a lot of people are going bleed builds.
 For me I've never really been a fan of bleed builds.
 I think that they're boring and slow
 but i know a lot of people like them
 I need one more set of minions
 then I can stop playing the game.
 And I could just let the minions do everything for me, but
 I need one more set of them first.
 It's all about the ramp yeah exactly
 oh got another gold i bet you're probably gonna get so much
 of this at high level level
 that's not over this one
 summon raging spirits that's what i'm gonna do as soon as I can, like I actually hate Summon Raging Spirits but I will use it because it's just effective
 at this current time
 and I'll probably also swap some Unraging Spirits out and make sure that I have the...
 Where the fuck is it?
 Where'd it go?
 Motherfucker.
 Maybe I got them all, is the other way?
 Yeah but certainly not this way. I'll tell you that!
 Let's get the hell out of here.
 This is good anyway though like
 It-It's good that I'm moving around because
 it was already so low level.
 Summon Skeleton Legion? Support combo is sweet?
 Oh! The Infernal Legion.
 Yeah.
 Okay, there we go.
 I already had it.
 Okay.
 Alright. Okay. All right.
 I'll go ahead and turn this back in.
 Okay... Frost bomb...
 Yeah.
 Yeah, that's actually huge.
 Okay...
 Let's go back over to here.
 And what we're going to do now is we're going to take Ray's zombie and put it over here.
 Then, we'll use Summon Raging Spirits.
 Frost Blink will have that as well.
 Okay, good! That's my movement ability.
 Then I'll have this on here so we're gonna stop using fireball basically
 yeah these guys are really good.
 Okay... Of course he's playing SRS? Well, that's only the Okay.
 Of course he's playing SRS?
 Well, that's only because it's good right now.
 I don't want to play this.
 I just have to. I'm like obligated to do it. Jesus!
 Almost got fucked up there.
 That's insane!
 What's SRS? Summon Raging Spirits
 I feel like it was a little bit too loud
 Okay, there we go.
 I feel like the League reward at
 low level isn't really very good.
 Like usually doing League mechanics at low level gives you pretty
 good stuff, I feel like this one doesn't really.
 I'm gonna go ahead and just pick this up now for 20 intelligence
 it's not really a great decision but it's just good to have something you know
 there we go.
 As soon as I get skeletons, that's whenever things are really gonna change because the skeletons are really good.
 And then you can get golems, specters... there's like four different types of minions. I need to do the Flooded Depths, right?
 I'm pretty what I thought. There we go.
 You can see, like...
 I feel like I'm doing pretty well.
 I'm gonna be honest.
 I'm feeling pretty good.
 This is going great. I Florida Depths is down at the bottom
 okay that's got in there
 I'm on a beach taking a nap. Yeah, it's the uh... actually there is a beach later
 on in the game but nobody will be there for another hour I would say. Oh, wow.
 Those are kind of rare.
 Very early game they're very rare.
 Not obviously late game they're very rare. Not obviously...
 Late game, they're not a big deal, but right now
 they are.
 I mean, what the fuck?
 I'm gonna drop a mirror in Act 4.
 It's just what's gonna happen.
 Is this POE 2
 gameplay? No, but it should
 be indicative of what you can kind of expect
 from POE 2.
 I think that really like,
 PoE is going from PoE 1 to like
 PoE 2 very slowly
 I feel like the time that
 I realized that the most
 was... Make sure I loop that right there.
 Having more mana would be really useful.
 It was in Heist.
 Heist was, like like a huge quality upgrade
 and a lot of people,
 Heist was kind of negatively received
 because it felt like
 it was kind of annoying to do
 I think for a lot of people
 at least that's how I felt
 but it definitely was like a really big
 quality increase
 you can see now like, now I'm popping off.
 You can see
 these spirits
 just go fucking crazy.
 Like they're super aggro
 They're massively aggressive
 they're just popping
 the fuck off.
 It's actually my zombies that can't stay alive.
 Maybe I should get like some minion recovery pretty soon...
 ...I don't know.
 Nice!
 Okay, um... there's no three-link unfortunately. This is a three link but I can't really use it right now.
 Actually you know what? I'm gonna loot that chest piece.
 I'll throw this away, but I'll loot the chest piece.
 I can probably use... oh.
 I misjudged that.
 Oh, I need to use my filter!
 Let me put my filter on after I get out of this area.
 Do you like Delve?
 No, not really.
 I don't actually.
 Oh wow!
 He's an essence?
 Didn't know that.
 You see we got all the dick boys coming out here just destroying this dude.
 Make sure I summon the zombies again?
 Easiest game of my life.
 And we got a fucking blue, that's huge!
 Okay, and so that's all done, I guess we've gotta turn it back
 around.
 Okay.
 And we'll go pick this up.
 Represent Mind Over Matter, I don't think I want to go with that.
 I don't think that's necessary.
 Is this Barbarian? No it's not!
 Uh... This is a pretty strong melee league
 but I chose not to play melee
 and I just kill these because
 I feel like I'm kind of behind on levels
 a little bit you know?
 And after we fight the first big boss, I'm gonna go
 and do the League Mechanic because I know a lot of people
 like the League Mechanic
 is actually
 very compelling to me.
 I find it to be very interesting because
 what I think that Grinding Gear Games is trying to do, is they're
 trying to beta test long-form gameplay retention mechanics
 things like...that functional like daily quests
 and they're basically using leagues
 like this to beta test it. You guys
 see how this is happening right?
 And so I think this is really smart for
 them to do this because this is the best way for them to beta test it inside of a league
 without having poe 2 come out and follow the same paradigm and then have
 it not be potentially received well.
 So yeah, it's a great idea.
 Exactly. They're backporting stuff? Yeah.
 I'm happy I already got
 a three link. I'm not sure when I can get minion damage, though.
 There's a couple of other things
 I can get that might actually work with that too.
 Can I go around?
 We'll just wrap around.
 I think I'm actually just wasting my time right now.
 Are you not going Minion?
 So the reason why...
 I don't think it's the right one.
 The reason why I went with this build and not a melee build
 is that
 I don't think that melee builds in this game are
 extremely fun, but I think that
 minion builds in the game offer
 a playstyle that is really interesting
 and unique. And I don't think I can get that playstyle
 out of Diablo 4,
 and I also can't...
 I don't know if I can get it
 out of Last Epoch.
 I was going to say I can't,
 but I really don't know the answer to that.
 But yeah.
 Melee got buffed?
 Well I've played like
 um
 the only league
 where I got a headhunter
 actually was a league
 where I played Cyclone.
 Um
 it was cast on crit Cyclone and it wasn't like Um...
 It was cast on crit Cyclone, it wasn't like raw Cyclone.
 But um...
 No I know that. Okay,... the shield? I'm gonna take the shield anyway. That shield could actually be useful.
 Okay.
 Are drops already on? I'm not
 sure, um...I-I'm gonna have to look. I think that they're usually
 directory wide so I assumed it would already be working.
 Could he use a Tabula Rasa? I have one!
 Are you asking if somebody like 1 hour after the lead can use a Tabula Rasa?
 Yeah, I bet they probably can.
 But I'm not going to take it.
 I'm just going to play the game my own way, right?
 Give it to somebody else.
 Did you know Turtle Wow got hacked?
 That's disappointing, but that's the risk that you take whenever you play on a private server.
 Actually, that's not even true. I can't even blame this on Turtle WoW
 because Sony is not a private server.
 You know, like...
 How did...
 Yeah, I mean, is it really their fault?
 I don't think so.
 How many millions
 does Kiwi spend on promotion on Twitch?
 The great thing about a good game is that it doesn't have to spend
 a lot of money on promotion for people to play in.
 I did
 get sponsored to play POE in the past, one time
 but
 I think that I've play PoE in the past one time. But, um...
 I think that I've spent a lot...
 I'm not even sure if I've made my money back with
 that. Actually, to be fair, I...
 I'm a pretty big streamer
 so I get paid a lot of money. So I probably did but uh...
 I bought numerous $480 packages for PoE
 I actually spent at a certain point in time
 I spent over half my net worth on Path of Exile.
 Because my net worth was $20, and
 I needed to spend 15 to get inside of the
 um... uh, inside of the closed
 beta. And so
 yeah, I-I spent all my money on it.
 I wonder what's down here?
 This is new...
 Or at least I don't remember that.
 Man there's a lot of cockpits
 oh oh they repositioned this guy he was not here before
 damn
 oh damn Oh, damn!
 You can see how I start ramping right?
 And as soon as I actually start doing damage it just goes crazy.
 Let's replace some of these flasks here.
 What am I still missing out on?
 Missing out on a neck,
 and I guess we're going to put this on instead
 get a little bit more energy shield
 and I don't really think I need
 that a whole lot and
 we'll go ahead and put this on too.
 The chest piece?
 I need to shield and fire res...I don't think it really even matters, like
 I'm level fucking one basically
 And let me see what I'm gonna do with my next level
 Let's go here and then we're going to
 there. Do spiritual command
 Oh this will be really good
 yeah yeah we're gonna have a really good situation here this is gonna be a super
 super good early game
 do i have four zombies yet? No.
 And you're seeing like how i'm starting to ramp right
 like i'm not delusional
 did your king's mark uh yeah i. I did the beginning of it.
 I
 so they gave me 30 gold
 and I immediately didn't read the quest and I spent
 the 30 gold on something else.
 So oh I got my first yellow! Let's see what that's gonna be. Oh it's pretty
 good. A two green isn't super useful. I don't think I'm going to get attack speed increase anytime soon, so it's not gonna be that important.
 Ramping an Act 1? Yeah... That's exactly right. Yeah.
 That's exactly right.
 I'm a chromatic on it?
 I don't think we're gonna be... I'm not using crafting materials at Act 1, okay?
 Is this Kuz'kun? Yeah it is. As I said, I haven't played in quite a while so I'm a little bit unfamiliar with how... if anything's been changed with the campaign.
 So look at this damage.
 You see like I'm going fucking 8-kick on him.
 Got destroyed.
 You're here, why can't I subscribe?
 Uh you'll be able to soon
 unfortunately uh probably quite soon you'll be able to soon, unfortunately.
 Probably quite soon.
 Yeah, don't worry.
 Ooh!
 That's another ring.
 I'm not really upset about having to partner, but you know it is what it is and i'll make money off of that too like
 i'll get money and so it'll be nice.
 Do you have a date? No, I don't.
 In all meanings of that word.
 Okay! Here we go.
 Yeah now it's really easy.
 You guys see what I'm saying about how like...
 Yeah this is going way better.
 I'm not struggling at all.
 Jesus! Good scaling? Yeah, minions are really strong early game.
 . What do you have partner?
 Um, I don't actually.
 They were gonna put ads on my channel and I'm like well okay if're going to run ads on the channel I might as well partner
 right? Because it's like
 if you're going to get paid for it, I might as well
 get paid for it. But I'm not really a
 big fan of having ads but I'm also
 like
 I don't hate
 ads or anything like that.
 Right? I mean, I understand you need
 ads for content on the internet
 It's just that I think the ad delivery
 system of Twitch is kind of annoying.
 There are too many ads that happen at the same time.
 Let's make a third channel. Yeah, it's terrible. It really is and it seems like
 there's been a decline in Twitch
 viewership but it's hard
 to say what the reason for that is, right?
 I mean you can't really go and say like oh it's because of the ads.
 It's very hard to say why but it is worth noting that it's happening.
 Doesn't switch your dog shit?
 Yeah, I think so too.
 One thing that's good is, like, for a long time the...
 The league mechanic scaling
 was way higher than the rest of the scaling
 in the game. it really created like kind
 of a bad experience because like
 you'd be doing fine in the game and then
 like you hit the league mechanic oh
 shit i have a legion Oh man. Isn't this a little early?
 I feel like it's a little early to have a legion.
 Oh, there we go! I feel like it's a little early to have a legion. Okay, let's do it! I'm doing my best guys, okay? so I think I messed up. You're good?
 Yeah, I think
 I'm okay.
 They're burbys There better be something good in this box, that's all I'm saying.
 Like there's something really good in this box. Here we go!
 Pretty decent.
 Actually pretty decent.
 I got a shield.
 It's better than what I have. And a sword? Not useful at all.
 Could be worse. Yeah, I mean like
 I actually need to shield anyway right? Because I'm not using any sort of
 defensives yet.
 And you'll see this will make a really big difference on the damage I take.
 If you look at it right here, it says chance to block 25%.
 A block actually reduces a lot of damage that I take so it should make a big difference.
 Hmm... I like shield. Is it hardcore? No, I don't play games on hardcore mode.
 For me, playing a game on hardcore mode is...
 That's kicking the fun out of it
 because it makes it too serious.
 It's anti-fun? Yeah.
 I think watching the hardcore deaths and everything is really fun,
 but in terms of me being interested
 in playing it, I'm really kind of not.
 Man, this guy sure...
 There we go. Okay, we're good.
 I'm gonna loot that chest piece. I think I might actually use that.
 That's pretty good. Um... I'm gonna swap that over later.
 Only unfun and hardcore is Minecraft?
 No, I mean...I just...
 Yeah.
 I'm just not a hardcore player.
 Uh, I don't have like the right attitude for it
 And I-I'm very much like a progression focused player
 So if I'm playing a game and I feel like
 I lose progression in the game,
 I lose interest in the game too.
 Loot filter would help?
 Oh no, loot filter's fine. I mean......I could do that. Okay let's go back.
 Alright yeah it just not my cup of tea you know.
 Okay cool. just not my... Not my cup of tea, you know?
 Okay. Great.
 And we'll go ahead and get this too.
 Added a light... Oh wow.
 Damn!
 Damn, I'm getting this already?
 I didn't even realize this. Holy shit!
 Okay great.
 Um... No, I don't have Skeleton.
 Um...
 I don't have Vitality either.
 Okay, I did get a 3-link didn't I?
 I did.
 Let me do this...
 Go to here, use that
 and then I'll go ahead
 and pick this up
 put this over here
 Frost Blink
 we'll put that
 over to
 here so we have Sum summon Raging Spirit,
 summon Phantasm and then we're going to have
 Minion damage. And now the minion damage is going to affect the phantasms
 and also the other mobs too.
 This should actually be a pretty big
 increase for me.
 Let's see if I can sell.
 I'm just going to show all this.
 Okay, great! So now we've done all that and
 I think we're ready to go back we're almost at the boss and then
 we're going to go back and do the league mechanic again
 this also makes some unraging spirits more expensive
 but you can see the damage difference right there
 that's nuts i didn't even expect it to be that much
 jesus
 okay now we've got some actual leads see how this does Not great.
 It's okay, but not great.
 A little slow.
 Do you need to agree to play the game?
 Oh, that'd be
 a good start.
 Oh, I don't have an amulet, do I? No, I don't have an amulet do I? No, I don't.
 Okay great.
 To be honest there's people that probably spent more time on this game
 than it would take to get a degree and they probably know less about
 this game then they do about the degree.
 That it would take that much time to get.
 Like this game is very complicated
 But like I wouldn't say that it's like that's not really a reason to
 like let it intimidate you from playing but it certainly is uh
 it can be overwhelming for sure.
 It's always changing, yeah.
 Yeah. Watch Graduated learn nothing? Yeah, I know. Uh...I didn't really learn a lot in school either to be honest.
 I felt like it was always kind of a
 waste of time.
 Yeah,
 it just is like...
 The reason why is I
 kind of went to school
 because I didn't really care
 about going to school.
 I just went to school
 because it was something
 to do.
 But to be honest all I ever really wanted to do is make videos and play video games and hang out with people, right?
 And so that wasn't really something I was like particularly um enthusiastic about
 how's he in health plus?
 Oh, I didn't give a fuck about it at all.
 Uh-oh.
 Uh-oh.
 I'm gonna kill that guy right there. That was close we started losing our zombies
 Do the same? Yeah.
 Well, for a long time, uh......I was streaming and playing video games
 And doing what i'm doing now
 it's just that wasn't getting paid for it that's the difference
 yeah you can do what i'm doing now you can do it right now just you're just not
 gonna get paid money maybe but like you can do it sure just like now yeah
 yeah this difference...
 You can see it on the single target, right?
 The damage increase is much better.
 I probably should have gone there, but I didn't.
 This is like an area in the game where...
 You're going through these trials, and...
 ...you have to fight basically Odysseus at the end of it.
 He's like an undead emperor Worst part of the game, in my opinion? You don't like Labyrinth?
 I'm not a Lab disliker.
 I can see why other people are though
 It feels old and outdated.
 It's weird that in the Atlas tree, there is only one node that modifies the labyrinth.
 Yeah I'd definitely say that because there's not really a lot that you do with
 labyrinth at all as the new player do i choose ruthless settler no do I choose Ruthless? Settler? No. Do not choose Ruthless.
 Just play the base game. Like, play... like join- like do the settler thing and then do it normal without, without ruthless or hardcore checked.
 I'll go this way.
 Lab is for enchants?
 Yeah well they made it to where you can get Labyrinth champs from other
 places now too.
 Because people used to have characters dedicated
 just to running Labyrinth.
 There were mainly juggernauts with
 like fuckin' a lot of
 single target damage
 and like nine
 fucking endurance orbs, or whatever
 Minions? I thought you were going melee?
 I am! My minions are doing melee.
 Okay, this is a really big...
 This is a big node for me right here. Sacrifice?
 That's huge.
 Okay. right here. Sacrifice? That's huge. Actually fucking
 massive.
 Because, like, it's going to really help out a lot with
 like... Oh! I have now... I have four zombies
 now too. I just realized that.
 Yeah, we're starting to start ramping.
 Okay Okay.
 And where is Brutus?
 I think he's in the next area after this.
 There's no Abavin chance anymore?
 Oh yeah, it's like new weapons or something like that, or skill gems.
 Let's get another mana blossom.
 Gems, yeah.
 Sometimes the minions can be kind of stupid.
 Like you get to a point where the minions, especially whenever
 you don't have a lot of damage
 like minions have spread pressure
 on five things
 what minions really excel at is
 just destroying one mob but like whenever it's like mob
 clear there's like different things that you can have to give them like cleave
 basically, but aside from now they can be very frustrating to do.
 Ooh what's this? Can I go through that?
 Is that new?
 Fuck, I can't get over there there's a lever nearby
 what the hell is it oh shit okay what's in here? Chemist strongbox.
 Bitch! That's... Let's go ahead and replace this one.
 We're going to replace this one,
 and we're replacing this one.
 Holy shit!
 Great!
 Okay. Great You're shocked your house and once human I need to Cody's been putting in work onto that man. He's been going crazy!
 Is the Settler League good for a newbie
 to get into? Yeah, I actually think this is probably one of a newbie to get into yeah i actually think this
 is probably one of the most if i'm understanding it correctly
 it's going to be one of the most friendly to new player leagues that
 they've ever made Once Human's super addictive.
 I have, like in Once Human
 I have all legendary gear
 Like I can crit for 50,000
 Uh, like I basically beat the game
 oh wait yeah it's nuts like i can one-shot the elites.
 Okay, there's another one too.
 Is Sanctum in the game?
 It is? Okay. Yeah, I didn't know.
 ... Okay. Yeah, I didn't know.
 I really need a new Mana Flask. Oh! That would be good in some other circumstances, but it's just not with mine. Okay, after this we should have our first actual boss.
 Yep here it is. Alrighty boys let's do it. Tsk tsk stuff please Where's this fat bitch?
 Where'd this fat bitch at? not over here Oh, it's this one.
 I'm done.
 It was? Yeah no, I'm done.
 Yeah, I didn I even see them.
 There's a dead guy.
 Nope! Nope. Oh, he's getting big-dicked!
 ... so Man, he really likes killing my minions
 man Word of Legendaries! What?
 Word of Legendary. What?
 War of the Legendary!
 What the hell?!
 What in the foot?
 Where are your minions?
 That's a great question, man.
 I wish I knew the answer to that. They're gone.
 They roached out. I just got fucked up, man.
 Okay let's go get these.
 Alright now we're gonna go back to that area.
 Clarities... there it is! Yes!
 Now gentlemen,
 now we will begin playing the game.
 We got the skeletons.
 Okay, and...
 I will keep Raging Spirit here but I'm probably not going to use it anymore because
 I prefer Summon Skeletons. I think that's way better.
 Okay now we've got $300.
 So let's go over to King's March, I guess this is it? Okay.
 Hmm...
 All right we're gonna get later okay good the last thing we need to discuss is investment shit we gotta give them money
 structure will require substantial resources
 for now make our first investment in our recruitment capabilities just to learn the process okay so
 manage the town with johan and add gold to the treasury okay managed. Manage town, and then
 let's add treasury gold. We're gonna
 add... I guess
 we're gonna add 69 gold.
 73? Okay, I can't do that.
 Okay, good.
 And then for mining...
 ...I guess I can do mine crimson iron.
 And I click on this and then I assign Adam.
 Wait, let me just have them
 tell me what to do
 Charter's laws, everything will go according
 to plan. Charter's law? Is that like a union
 or some shit?
 Assign a worker
 to mining your information board. Okay.
 Manage town. Alright alright so we're gonna go
 look at the mining town right here
 Crimson Iron and then we're going to assign
 this worker here
 okay good
 yeah he yearns for the mines 60 per hour so that's how much he's farming
 and he needs six gold per hour okay we are now in a position to build mining infrastructure.
 That's right!
 Okay, we got big money?
 Establish shipping... Oh I get to make the ships now!
 Okay here we go
 oh i can't i need more iron ore.
 Okay, so if he's mining right
 now this means I probably need to just come back in like 20 minutes.
 Right?
 I'm gonna buy one more person.
 Yeah, we're going to put another guy on here just so we can...
 No no they are being paid guys. Guys they are being. That's not what's happening.
 Okay... uh... let's see. Now we gotta go back.
 Oh I can't- I can't teleport from here.
 They're paid slaves? Yes.
 Okay now you guys will see why I like the skeletons. See that? Let's do that.
 That's level one.
 I can summon them anywhere I want, they spawn over there, not on top of the mobs.
 Like, I'm going to be in such a good situation right now.
 By the time I get some Marveille and I have them leveled up...
 It's going to be...
 I'm going to be living in a whole new world.
 Actually, let me look at my... Okay, it's UI, right?
 Filter, filter, filter, filter,
 items, filter.
 ... items filter in game In game. Alright, we've got settlers of Catan.
 We're good.
 Alright.
 Oh I need to get my zombies out.
 If I'm so far behind...
 You have to update your filter?
 I just did.
 Um, I did before.
 I mean we'll see like yeah it's working. What's this?
 What a bitch!
 And if I really want to, I can actually summon even more.
 Look how many
 I have now.
 That's amazing. How many I have now? Oh Oh.
 I need more mana?
 I haven't gotten a single mana flask. We'll get that right there.
 See if this is any good.
 Dexterity?
 This is actually a really good item. Um Yeah, we're gonna put this on.
 Because I don't really need fireball anyway.
 Okay... where are we going?
 Oh, you gotta go down this way.
 Yeah, you see how good
 this is right? It's like I just
 summon him right on top of this guy
 and also keep in mind every level i get is going to make me do way more damage
 like this is all minion attack speed and cast speed and shit. 20% increased
 effective offerings.
 I think we might go with that.
 Yeah, that seems really good. Unholy Might?
 You think so, like this early on? You can see obviously like now it's a...
 It could be a bit of a struggle.
 It's like with multiple mobs, it's still kind of hard to do. There is one down.
 Pretty good, yeah we're doing okay.
 Not great but we are doing okay. Okay.
 Okay.
 Unfortunately nothing good out of that.
 I was hoping I'd get more of a reward, considering
 I just had to kill two uniques.
 Thank fucking god!
 Holy shit!
 Now I finally have a real mana flask
 doesn't want to have drama to react to? No, I didn't.
 I took a break. Also,
 I feel like there hasn't really been a lot going on.
 It's that MrBeast
 stuff maybe but that's not really... It's like that Mr. Beast stuff, maybe...
 But, like, that's not really...
 I feel like that's kind of already defined, right?
 Ooh, okay.
 What do we want out of this?
 Two things
 Vol haste or
 vol summon skeletons
 That's what we need there's a special boss at the end of this that's like, kind of annoying to kill
 And if we get one of those items it will be a very good day for me
 I'll just say that.
 Ball summon skeletons
 is fucking ridiculous, by the way.
 When I get ridiculous by the way when i get a chaos orb I'll buy it off of somebody
 bro guys are dying.
 Oh my god!
 Um, boys? Yeah you missed all the chests chests yeah that's because they're bad
 the chest never drop anything good man
 at least i don't think they do, this is actually really big for me.
 Yeah that's a huge increase.
 You don't loot chests in POE?
 Yeah, I don't do it unless
 it's like and divines.
 All right.
 Oh,
 that was pretty good.
 I mean,
 I don't need those items
 but you know
 if I did need them
 it would have been good.
 Chromatic Orb? Okay. Okay. them it would have been good chromatic orb okay all right we're at the boss This game is just like League Swarm?
 Yeah, it's kind of like that except it's not the same I feel like we're gonna take that.
 Okay, here's the boss.
 Here we go.
 Please bro, please... Please, Vol summon Skeletons. please bro please
 please ball summon skeletons That's so dumb, bro.
 Like that's actually...
 That's so dumb.
 What a dumb game.
 Like that's so stupid. What a dumb game, Mike.
 That's so stupid.
 How about Gauntlets?
 Do I need anything for the Gauntlets?
 I don't even really think it matters. It's not that much better, let's just leave.
 What a joke man.
 What a fucking joke. huh what a joke that's so stupid
 it's corrupted anyway yeah i know that but
 you don't understand I gotta get more minion life, man.
 Okay. I'm gonna loot that in case I wanna use it.
 Okay.
 It's weird to see gold, man.
 We've got another chest!
 Portal scroll! Wow!
 Let's open up another chest
 What did we get? Nothing!
 Oh man.
 It could be anything...
 What build am I going? Just a necromancer build basically.
 Okay let's go over here. Ooh we have a box!
 That's a lot of mobs that's crazy
 that really is a lot of mobs i got another one of those.
 I'm gonna loot this just so i can hold on to it for now.
 Oh actually, I have this. Is it better than what I have?
 It's about the same like I don't really care
 about too much
 I should probably use another weapon. I don't think i'm gonna get a convoking wand anytime soon, it probably won't drop until like act five
 three slotted yeah but i don't have an ability to put in three slots yet for
 there it is.
 You know what, let's go ahead and do this now, and let's do...
 Let's do Unholy Might
 because this is gonna help me a lot with clear speed
 damn that's actually pretty good Okay, I'm back.
 You popping off yet?
 Yeah, I'd say I am actually.
 I'm doing pretty well.
 After we finish Act 1, we're gonna go back to our base.
 The way that most people play the game is they just kind of run through
 everything. I've done
 that before in different
 leagues, but i generally
 I only feel comfortable doing that once
 I kind of have like my build
 Like going you know
 I feel like right now my build is not
 Going
 It's okay, but it's not great.
 Can I have a reminder? You enable portals by being close proximity? Oh yeah!
 What's that all about that.
 I'm thinking maybe I should take one of these coral rings and use a...
 How do you guys
 feel about me using an alchemy orb on
 one of the coral rings?
 I think that's kind of a good idea.
 It's a waste?
 Alright, I won't do it.
 Okay... Game's not- yeah that was probably a little bit too loud actually.
 Where the hell is the fucking ship graveyard?
 Where the fuck is it? Are you kidding me?!
 Rather on a four link. Oh, you know what
 You guys bring up a really good point. Yeah I should save it for a four link oh you know what you guys bring up a really good point yeah i should save it for
 a four length you're absolutely right
 yeah let's do that.
 Jesus! We're gonna bring in the other guy What is this?
 We're gonna bring in the other guys here too.
 Caved Wand... I already have one of those where I would've gone with it. Oh, wait! Oh, I need this actually!
 Cool... ummm
 Man, these mobs sure do a lot of damage.
 Nice! What's this?
 Oh... Nice! What's this? Oh.
 Ooh.
 He just gonna do that for a while?
 Okay.
 Cool!
 Am I 30 yet? I'm 34.
 Oh no, it sucks bro.
 Yeah...
 Not good. yeah he's not good I feel like they really should have made the mining things give you better rewards inside of the leveling process.
 Because, I feel like I've done five of them and. I haven't really gotten anything that was substantial at all
 War Age outcome does? Really, I didn't get shit off of that one then
 I guess I got fucking scammed.
 That seems like some bullshit to me.
 Use it to upgrade the base?
 Yeah, I guess. But it's just like...
 I want to get the items there too
 Okay
 Yeah somebody is already level 36.
 Yeah, the people that speedrun this game I think it's kind of impressive to do considering like
 how much uh variability there is
 you're gonna screw once you get 40 unless you're fat or something yeah true
 230k players on steam well this league i think that PoE is one of those games
 that a lot of people...
 It's one of those games
 that a lot of people want to try
 but they feel like it's too unapproachable.
 And I do think that it's possible for PoE to be approachable to new players, but at the same time...
 I don't know, like...
 Does this increase golems?
 It doesn't.
 Fuck.
 Um...
 It does increase everything else though.
 Ooh we got a cocksucker here.
 Let's try it. It's free?
 Yeah, it's a free game. I would absolutely recommend it.
 Okay.
 That's a bitch
 we got more zombies it still have five no is it four
 all right now we have to fight this guy.
 You had to help this guy and then he betrays you. What an asshole?
 Yeah, I know. He is an asshole
 Look at the damage though
 You see that? That is crazy bro
 That guy got fucking destroyed
 You see that?
 Holy!
 What's this?
 That's actually a pretty good item.
 Uh, okay. Give me an That's actually a pretty good item. Okay, give me a minute.
 I'm gonna go ahead and swap this
 over to here
 and then... Sunraging Spirit
 we're going to put that over...
 Put this here and then we're gonna put this,
 this, and this.
 Raise zombie...
 We're in kind of an awkward position with gems, but it's okay. Yeah I think I need to swap that over.
 I think it's better. Yeah, I probably...
 I didn't realize it was as fucked up
 as it was. But
 It's okay
 I'm losing a little bit of gems and everything, but
 I'm sure it'll fix itself soon.
 Ooh.
 God damn it!
 Yeah, I don't have the
 Summon Raging Spirits right now.
 Do you ever wish
 you had to quit gaming and streaming
 and go start a family?
 Well, I don't know.
 I mean, not had to, right?
 I think that there's...
 I-I don't think anybody wants to have to do anything you know
 Jesus who is this cocksucker?
 He's just killing all my mobs.
 Fuck.
 Nothing too good unfortunately
 peak concurrence for poe yeah well what i was saying is like this league i think is definitely a league where
 a new player can come into the game and
 it's easier to
 you know understand what's happening.
 I'm not saying that it makes the league
 easy to approach or anything like that.
 But I'm saying it improves the probability
 that somebody can understand what's happening.
 Yeah, should I pop this off? Yeah did my video about it was really popular too
 okay
 oh yeah this is huge.
 This is massive.
 Okay.
 This is gonna sound, but I think I might actually have to replace...
 Let me do Elemental Resistances here throw that away I'm going to replace this with this so I can keep all my other abilities.
 Because I feel like I am losing out on a lot of abilities right now, and there's no reason for me to.
 Even though this has the wrong gems.
 Why not sell? Oh, I don't know, I just don't feel like it.
 Okay.
 Okay, spark... we'll get rid of that. Oh yeah!
 It goes into Gem Tab.
 That's right.
 I just want to get rid
 of everything for now.
 Okay, let's keep going. What would you recommend to a new player?
 Play with the build or follow a build guide?
 You should follow a build guide.
 I think that's the best way to play the game.
 The reason why is because
 following a build guide will give you the ability to like
 you should follow a build guide and then be willing to take risks on your own so like don't
 don't go and follow a build guide
 and think to yourself,
 like, okay, this is what I have to do.
 But the odds are that
 the guys that made the build guide
 understand the game way better than you do, and you will probably be wrong every single
 time that you diverge from the build guide. But it will be a learning experience that
 will make you understand why you were wrong.
 That's what I would say.
 Does it really pay towin mechanics in PoE?
 No, not really.
 I think they have a battle pass or something like that now
 but that's not really pay-to-win.
 Next time I get transmutation I'm'm gonna use it on my flask here.
 Oh stash? Yeah yeah that's actually...
 So you can get stash tabs,
 and stash tabs make it easier to play the game for sure.
 That's a good point.
 So if I use this thing here,
 this flesh offering,
 it's like super good.
 What it does is for five seconds
 it makes my minions basically attack
 super fast.
 Okay. I'm going to go ahead and use this.
 Instant recovery for mana.
 That's actually really good.
 I want to get rid of my existing one. Actually, this has always been easy... Well, no Mageblood? No. I've actually never got a Mageblood before.
 Usually I will play a league and then I kind of drift away because there's like some other game that's coming out.
 And or, like, I hit a wall in the game where it's like I can't go any further because it's just really hard
 and i'm just like...
 Okay, I'm quitting.
 I'm done.
 Okay, we have another Ori Chalcomore.
 Alright! Here we go, gentlemen. Okay. All right.
 Here we go, gentlemen.
 Let's get it.
 Come on! Man, these guys sure are doing a lot of damage. I thought y'all said I was supposed to get something out what... Where is it?
 Who was it said that there's a bunch of stuff in- where is it? They lied. they lied
 they did bro
 oh This is fucked up. I think i'll get a Spectre in Act 2, I'm not sure.
 Hopefully soon. an act two i'm not sure hopefully soon
 you're supposed to mine it no there'd be an interaction uh icon if i was supposed to mine it.
 Okay.
 Please be good.
 See, look at that damage!'s really good that is good
 okay
 what we're really gonna have to know is on the boss, though.
 How are you on?
 I was in the queue at the beginning
 so it made it easier for me
 to get into the game.
 Come on. There's no way I can, right? Nope.
 Okay.
 So we're gonna go to here, and then we're gonna go up to here. Death Attunement.
 And then we're gonna
 down to here.
 I think i might use spiritual aid even though it probably isn't good,
 It probably might be good early game because i'll have like different random abilities
 is the game music off no it's on
 that'd be your first time seeing you play a magic build in the game.
 I've used magic a lot in games, but it's true that I do prefer melee.
 Okay here we go! This is the first big boss Man, she's really killing a lot of my minions huh
 there's two phases to this fight by the way i am
 fucked Man, these minions are dying really fast.
 I haven't played a minion build since they changed the campaign.
 I didn't realize it was this fast.
 Jesus! What? I need more money.
 Fucking destroyed!
 She's regenerating her shield!
 Uh oh.
 We're gonna have to go back.
 We just go back.
 We have to go back!
 Okay, here we go.
 Jesus... Jesus.
 Okay... Okay, that's phase one is over. This is not looking good for me guys.
 This is looking very bad. Man.
 Man.
 I think we might have to go back again. Oh, no! I'm out of mana. We are.
 We're going to have
 to go back again.
 Okay. Wait, maybe not.
 Yep. Jesus, bro. This is bad!
 This is real bad!
 Man... man Jesus guys that was
 I was bad. It's nice to see this still some life in this twitching out was bad.
 That was bad, bro! Like, god damn!
 It's okay we're gonna keep going. Uh things will keep getting better guys I promise.
 Okay what about this staff? Is this any good? Not really...
 Yeah none of these are all that great
 Okay we got one more. One hour and 30 minutes for act 1? That's a new record actually. Let me go back to the area. Alright, now what?
 So how do I get my resources?
 Do I go back over to this?
 Let's find out.
 Town map, okay.
 Let's see how this
 works.
 How do I loot?
 Or is it automatically given to me?
 Mine door. Okay, I have it.
 There's crim... Okay, I got it now.
 Okay, it does it automatically I don't have to loot or anything. Alright here we go!
 This should be really big.
 Here we go.
 Damn!
 Okay, so...
 Send a shipment. Alright? Let's send the shipment.
 And ship to Ribonfell?
 I don't think I need to do that. to Ribonfell.
 I don't think I need to do that.
 Maybe I do.
 Let me double check over here.
 Okay, upgrade
 to rank two.
 I think we just need more Ori Chalcombe.
 Yeah, talk to Tuzian?
 Oh yeah you're right.
 Ship items.
 Oh, I don't have crew yet!
 Okay.
 I think at this point
 what we really need to do is
 we just need to
 farm What we really need to do is, we just need to...
 We just need to farm. And I'm just gonna go all the way through Act 2 and then I think we'll be ready to go.
 You can buy crew with gold? Yeah but I think that's what I need to do. so Man.
 These guys cannot fucking stay alive.
 Oh, man. These guys cannot fucking stay alive. This is bad.
 You mean pickup range is crazy? Yeah, it's a good thing. I hate having to worry about little things like picking up mobs and stuff or items and stuff right? It's just super annoying. I wonder if I should even try to summon these anymore.
 You know what I really need to do is, I need to be using the...
 Oh, this is good.
 That's big good.
 I need to be using flesh offering more.
 Is it their minion armor affixes?
 Yeah, um, I just going to be a struggle until I kind of overcome it.
 I'm actually surprised.
 This is the most that I've struggled on making
 a minion build this early in a long time.
 But I think the other reason
 could be because I'm also not, uh...
 I haven't really done it ever since they buffed the campaign.
 So I think that's probably the main reason actually.
 I don't know if they used WASD, they are in POE 2. I'm sure that they'll add it into POE 1 but they just haven't done it yet.
 Okay...
 Let me just sell these two items.
 Okay, let's go!
 Get minion damage support? I did. You know what i really should do is,
 I should get two of them.
 You know what let me actually take a second
 and really like look and see what i need to get
 okay purchase items nothing out here in here i can't
 minion damage cuts hp it does but if the mobs are dead then they can't do damage to my
 to my guys.
 Okay, purchase items.
 Alright.
 Arcane Surge, Prismatic, Channeling, Spell Cascade... arcane surge prismatic channeling spell cascade summon phantasm Hmm.
 I know exactly what we're gonna do we're
 going to get two melee splash supports
 and we're gonna wait until we get a red
 and then we're gonna put it on these a red. and then we're going to put it on these
 and I'll also get one more minion down
 Oh, I don't have enough!
 Fuck
 Well, I don't want the one with the gym. Yeah, that's kind of bad. I fucked up.
 But this will make a really big difference whenever I can use it though even though I can't use it
 right now
 okay let's go back over to here I'll put these in now though so they can start leveling.
 I've got too many greens.
 Okay, let's go this way.
 You wasted a wand? One red, one blue? Yeah I know, but I get it. That's my point, this game makes you qualified for certain jobs.
 I mean, this game is very complex right?
 And um...I think that complexity is...in some ways the complexity is...
 In some ways,
 the complexity is a good thing.
 In some ways, it's a bad thing.
 Like, uh,
 I would say in most ways it's a good thing.
 Like, I think it's an overall positive.
 But, um...
 There's definitely some things that I think
 they could improve on
 to make the complexity more approachable
 for new players, you know?
 See, like now i feel like having flesh offering really made a big difference
 wow okay um Okay, um...
 I feel like I don't really need any of these.
 We'll take the ring maybe? see if it gets anything good.
 That's actually pretty good.
 Uh...I'm gonna go ahead and just get on that.
 I think I need to do this, I don't remember though. This by the way was the thing that I saw a Creperian playing
 That made me want to play the game
 It was like this area. He was fighting a bear in like a cave like this.
 Flesh Hoffing is very good, yeah!
 I want to fight someone self-taught I wanna play solo-softbound. I feel like I don't have enough game knowledge.
 I really liked the idea of trading, and for example whenever Diablo decided to get rid
 of trading...
 I really was disappointed.
 I really, really, really didn't like that.
 And so ever since then,
 I've really liked PoE for having trading.
 To me, trading makes it feel like and i don't think by the way i think if you like solo self-found that's not like a wrong opinion right
 uh it's just like to me i really like trading and i like the gameplay that it creates
 yeah see now we're ramping you see this? Holy shit.
 You see that?
 We are big dicking them.
 This is what the game's all about.
 Let's all about. See this cobsucker right here? He's getting destroyed.
 Get out of my life!
 Okay... Okay. Probably should loot this.
 Oh, no! Do you use loot filter?
 I do.
 I'm using...
 Okay, here we go.
 All right, here's the big cop.
 Let's beat him.
 Look at this.
 I'm destroyed.
 Okay.
 What are we getting out of this area?
 What are we getting guys?
 Vaal summons skeletons.
 That's right.
 It's going to happen for sure. Gold?
 Nope.
 I actually don't like this instant recovery.
 I thought I would like it more than I do.
 Man, bro,
 we are struggling.
 I'm gonna be honest.
 Like, this is bad.
 Okay.
 Kind of the point of this.
 We're gonna get a little more extra health too.
 Okay. point to this we're gonna get a little more extra health too
 and so we're going to help alara and so what it is now is you still get the same amount of points but you get one extra point versus two
 is that pretty much how it works Yes, okay.
 Man, this shit's going on for a bit.
 Alright, here we got the boss.
 Let's do it.
 Alright, we're big dicking it. Come on.
 I'm fucking frozen. so It is what it is, right? Sell them? I'm not even going to worry about selling them right now. It's too early.
 Oh, there we go! There we go! There we go! I'm not even gonna worry about selling them right now. It's too early
 More garbage that dps is trash It's so bad, right? No my damage sucks dick right now.
 It's so bad.
 I'm actually, uh...
 I-I'm really, really not doing well right now.
 Like, I'm surviving but like barely. I'm hanging on by a thread.
 Boomer DPS?
 It's just garbage DPS. Like it's not boomer d- it's just garbage gps like not boomered
 it's just trash that's it
 there we go. He's still not dead?
 Jesus!
 Minions in a melee league?
 Guys, guys, it's not...
 We're doing great right now, okay?
 What do you mean?
 You What do you mean? You'll see, it's gonna turn around. It's gonna turn around real soon like everything is going to be way different
 Where are you guessing, Quinn? I feel like this build is probably worse than the average Quinn build.
 I'm gonna be honest it's even worse
 I think it's because I haven't invested in any sort of like secondary benefits
 for the gems, I'm just kind of like uh
 freewheeling it
 Like it-it's probably a mistake
 to do that.
 I guess we'll kill Creighton first.
 Okay.
 At least here we'll get a little bit of life. Okay. At least here we'll get a little bit of life.
 Need more minion bonuses?
 Really?!
 Huh?! Really? Huh.
 Yeah?
 I think you're right.
 I do, I agree with you.
 What the fuck is this?
 I had to get another flask.
 What a joke!
 Okay, maybe I got something good here? Ah fuck you...
 what a piece of shit.
 Yeah let's keep going.
 Just need to do more DPS? I know that's what...I'm know, I'm trying.
 SRS plus minion damage is fine until maps?
 Yeah well what if i told you that I had items to use for minion damage splash
 but I sold them?
 Yeah, so I sold all the good items
 that I was supposed to have
 and I don't have them anymore because now they're gone.
 Pretty cool, right?
 So like all this cleave damage That I would theoretically be doing right now
 Okay, I'm dead
 We gotta kill one mob at a time.
 Real bad.
 This is real bad guys.
 It's real bad. Uh oh.
 I'm out of mana, gotta fort back!
 We've got gotta go back! okay Okay. Oh, Jesus Christ
 Oh god
 Oh god
 Alright Let's keep going we're doing great guys just keep going everything's fine
 another mana flask? Good idea.
 Man.
 Got this for sure, guys.
 For sure.
 Oh, we got another war thing!
 Oh boy.
 Oh boy, I'm sure this is gonna work out
 real well.
 Oh Oh boy. Here we go. And they're all dead.
 Okay, so let's think about how we're going to handle this.
 Alright. Um, this one's almost dead.
 Maybe kill that one?
 Okay, that one is dead.
 Alright, kill these over here.
 Okay, start building back up
 this is
 oh man this is...
 This is really something.
 I have to run one?
 Damn! That's really good
 oh a breach oh boy
 oh yeah this is going really well. Wow.
 You need clarity?
 You're right.
 All right.
 That DPS, though?
 This is...
 It's really...
 Honestly, I think this is kind of impressive.
 I do. I don't think i've ever
 it's i don't know.
 Struggle build is real?
 It's really impressive.
 Trail of Lightning, I think that's a new one, I don't remember that.
 Okay we got a pair of gloves. These could actually be good.
 Alright, anything is better than what I have.
 Ohp, I missed something.
 Where's the, uh... where's the thing? Oh here it is. Okay.
 Alright so we're gonna kill this guy so This is going great. This is no problem. yeah
 this is perfect
 what am i gonna get though? Oh!
 Oh!
 Would you say it's a good time to start? Yes, alright.
 Okay...
 Let's get life.
 Jesus, what a piece of shit!
 Fuck! Okay.
 It's just the way it goes, guys. It's the way it goes.
 You gonna be okay on Oak? tomorrow? He got his health regen. No, no it'll be alright.
 I need to see the bathroom real quick.
 Oops right here. oh so so so so um Thank you. All right. Alright, we're ready to go. Zero to hero?
 Why is it 0-1 out of 100?
 This is not looking good boys.
 We are struggling.
 We're barely hanging in there
 go down to the bottom here I'm fighting for my life out here man. but things are getting better
 they are You're ramping? I am.
 And getting this life node will help out a lot too.
 What I really need is, I just need more...
 More investment right now.
 Like, just more minion damage investment.
 You need damage?
 Yeah, that's what I just said.
 Yeah, that's right.
 That's exactly what I meant. Yes, 100%. So true. I need more money. Okay, all those are garbage.
 Come on give me something good. I deserve it!
 I deserve something good!
 Oh! I deserve it. I deserve something good. Oh, what do you mean? What is this game bro oh we gotta go down here wait what the fuck is this
 wait Wait.
 What the fuck?
 Evolve some of the skeletons for a second,'ll wait until I get more, I feel like that's too cheap especially
 at the beginning of the league okay let's keep going you want it it's Well, I don't think anything happened right?
 Oh, I'm big stupid. Okay, I get it.
 Let's go this way.
 Wasn't that the sanctum thingy?
 I have... Oh!
 This is another statue here.
 There's three statues. Huh.
 You don't remember that at all?
 Is PoE playing Diablo 4? Well, Diablo 4 has improved a lot actually. I mean like...
 Diablo 4 is a great game for really casual ARPG players.
 I think if you're really looking to like, y'know... it's like if you wanna put 100 hours
 into a game, you're probably gonna get
 more out of that hundred hours.
 Actually, y'know what? Let me look at it like this
 If you put 100 hours in the PeeWee and
 100 hours into Diablo 4 You you'll probably get more out of
 Diablo 4. But if you put a thousand
 hours in the PoE and a thousand dollars
 into Diablo 4, you'll get
 more out of your hours used to it in PoE
 I think that's kind of a...
 That's how I would look at it, right?
 Because
 I don't think Diablo 4 is a bad game.
 I actually
 think it's okay now, but...
 Oh! Oh! Errgh!
 Uh. It's not red though.
 Yeah, it's not red.
 Oh, if we're good now? Yeah.
 I don't know if you guys agree with that or not but like that's the way uh that's like that's my experience with it right
 explodes explodes it's gonna kill me.
 Oh wait it didn't... okay. That- that's nice. I'm glad it didn't kill me.
 What a piece of fucking shit!
 When do i get the good loot?
 What the fuck is this?!
 Okay, this one's pretty good. Oh, I had gray boots on.
 Oh, that's probably...
 That probably was bad for my damage, huh?
 Oh yeah!
 Oh, that wasn't good at all.
 We need to get the zombies leveled up too with new abilities and shit.
 I need to get that minion damage support.
 I'm going to do that next time I go back to town.
 Comes on at full camera rotation, ruined every other RPG.
 There's a lot of things that
 other ARPGs do well
 like
 I don't think PoE is like a perfect game
 in a lot of ways but it tries to be a perfect game in a lot of ways but i think that it tries to be a
 perfect game and that goes farther than most other games
 like imagine when i get melee Like, that's gonna be crazy.
 Okay.
 I don't know if it was over this way or the other way.
 It's not going to damn well try us? Yeah.
 I think they're receptive to feedback and I I-I think also like one thing is that
 they solve problems in
 ways that I think are
 um...
 Like...
 They solve them in like measured and smart ways basically, right?
 Like they have good ways of like solving problems.
 For example, one issue is
 that a lot of people used to use a macro to use their flasks
 so you would press one button
 and you would have all your flasks down here
 activated all at once.
 And it was called pianoing the flasks,
 right? People would have different terms for it, but
 that was one of them at least, right?
 So, instead of like instead of like just kind of like saying oh yeah this is bad you shouldn't do this it's
 cheating what they did is they added orbs into the game that
 can automate your flask usage
 so that you don't feel like you need to do
 that. So it's like
 instead of basically punishing
 the players, they decided to improve
 the gameplay systems.
 I think that's a really good example of what I was talking about.
 As well as an item? Yeah, exactly.
 They have very well-reasoned solutions for things.
 That's actually pretty good.
 It's better than mine, actually. I'm gonna throw this away.
 We have to do the second level.
 Wouldn't you enjoy an option for damage numbers in PoE?
 Abso-fucking-lutely.
 I wish I had damage
 numbers in this game. I think that there's actually a problem because like it-
 It's, like not having damage numbers is
 I think one of the big reasons why
 A lot of people want to use third party tools
 It's because it's so hard to figure out
 what are you doing?
 Am I doing anything right? Am I doing it wrong?
 Because there's so many variables in
 endgame that can happen simultaneously
 that it makes
 like reverse engineering things
 really hard for someone to do
 that doesn't already have
 a tremendous amount of experience
 in the game.
 Okay, here we go
 are there damage numbers in kiwi 2? There are
 um you are going to get damage numbers in QE2.
 Only two or a Chaotham.
 Dude who the- what fucking idiot said you'd get a bunch of items out of this.
 Like, that's the biggest fucking lie!
 I'm getting a single thing! There's one of my mods, too.
 You can check the skills DPS if you hover over it. Yeah, but that doesn't really measure attack speed and other components of damage too.
 And I feel like... Again, it's not impossible to do. It's just harder to do. It's just that it's harder to do, and
 I think that any time
 that a player has to go to a third-party
 resource in order to solve a problem
 in the game, this is generally
 a shortcoming of the game.
 And I think that's one of the big
 issues that PoE has,
 is that you have people that want
 to... You have people that
 wanna play the game, but then they have to go and look online on these other websites
 And download this other program and a bunch of other stuff
 It's kind of non-approachable for an average person.
 And I think
 there's also something to be said
 because... I think this is something people
 don't really bring up a lot, but
 one of the reasons why PoE has been able to
 retain its identity
 really well compared
 to other games that have gained a lot of
 mass popularity. I think
 one of the reasons why is actually because poe does have this like big filter in the game
 which um like uh they're like the barrier to to entry is such a high level of
 gatekeeping that it keeps
 casual players from coming into the game
 and then wanting a bunch of changes
 and then trying to push for the changes
 from the devs. it filters out retards it
 does
 and like you can say that's like a good
 thing and like in a way it kind of is
 right but at the same time i think that
 like
 i think you can have a little bit of
 both gatekeeping yeah i think you can have a little bit of both
 gatekeeping yeah it's basically functions as a gatekeeper is what i'm saying Alright, let's go down this way.
 Okay... I just got Vol 7 Skeletons? That's crazy, man.
 That must be nice. Awesome. Good for you.
 Wow.
 Okay. Wow. Casuals, especially in competitive games, give you a headache?
 I think it's different
 than PoE. PoE isn't really a competitive
 game at all.
 Or at least it doesn't have to be.
 But I think
 what ends up happening is that
 you have casual players that come into games and then they they want to
 have the game changed in a way that like obviously accommodates them because that's what they want
 and that's it's fine for them to want that it's not like it's a bad thing but um you
 know sometimes in the pursuit of trying to make casual players happy you end up alienating your
 original player base and i think that one of the reasons why PoE hasn't had that happen is because
 The developers of the game, like basically well the game is really hard to do.
 And I think that's a big reason.
 That's actually a pretty good item.
 I feel like they're about the same, but this one gives you movement speed
 so I'm gonna go ahead and use it.
 I think that is how it is.
 Can this upgrade? Yeah, I think so! See, now I'm starting to do a lot better.
 You see this?
 This is actually going pretty well
 Long gem sockets unfortunately
 Okay Okay. What's hard, Socket? It's leveling a passive tree that you can't really access and narrow down much?
 Yeah it's like planning out your skill tree I think is pretty hard for a new player to do.
 For sure.
 Sell items... okay let's get rid of this, we'll get rid of this,
 get rid of that, get rid of this we'll get rid of this get rid of that
 get rid of this i probably shouldn't get rid of this but
 I'm just going to anyway it doesn't really matter
 I'm also gonna go and get another minion damage from Act 1. Okay. I'm thinking maybe we should go down to here.
 I am, I feel like we don't get the bonus first, because this is so far up here...
 ...I don't think it's the right decision to make. I think we should go down farther first.
 Okay, purchase items. Alright.
 Minion.
 Okay.
 Minions. Okay Let's get minion damage support.
 And then...
 Fuck, I don't have any more orbs?
 Shit!
 ... Be well.
 Give gold please bro, I'm struggling.
 We've got to go back and use those.
 So what we're going to do
 now is we're looking for Ray's zombie
 Now he can give them minion damage, so this will
 make them a little bit stronger, which
 will help out a lot.
 Okay stronger which will help out a lot
 having those auras will help out too like precision will be really useful for life my minions
 not very useful unfortunately
 is this a melee league yeah i was hoping to use like melee
 minions and hopefully it would be like uh really good so far i've really had a hard time Yeah, it's been really bad. Are you kidding me? I'm getting nothing!
 This is crazy! No, right. It is uh...
 So range is the worst build this league?
 I don't know.
 Yeah, I'm not sure.
 Do you have ships out getting loot? No, I need to.
 Yes. Maybe after i finish this i'm gonna go do that. there. Nope, wrong ones.
 At least now I feel like we're doing a lot better.
 Like our damage is better.
 Pretty much everything now is better.
 Am I finally doing damage? Kind of, yeah!
 I think having that zombie kind of yeah
 i think having that zombie uh that zombie damage really helped out a lot
 more than what i expected That's not good either.
 Is this game like a hard Diablo? Uh, that's one way to put it.
 It's like Diablo with a bunch of extra steps.
 Like...a bunch.
 Yeah, I think the minion health scaling has actually improved a lot.
 Look at that. Yeah, things are improving quite a bit.
 Okay let's go over here.
 I think it's over this way. Diablo, have you built diversity and actual bosses?
 Yeah, um... I mean,
 Diablo has improved a lot.
 Jesus! Look at that damage!
 I was just talking about how they're surviving
 And now they just all died
 fuck
 um
 anyway yeah yeah no you're right Anyway, yeah.
 Yeah, no, you're right.
 I think that also like really
 a lot of ARPGs
 don't really have
 great fundamental gameplay
 but they're fun to have great fundamental gameplay.
 But they're fun to explore and play builds in, right?
 It's mainly a character builder
 more than like a gameplay simulator, right?
 That's what I would say.
 Jesus.
 That's not very useful. Actually, yeah it is.
 Let me see what this is gonna be... 42% armor is fucking massive.
 Okay, but I'm this way? I think it's actually the wrong way i'm going the wrong line
 double mortal d4 feels more fun uh than this game can't get into it yeah it takes a lot
 of time for somebody to like really get into this game there's a lot of time for somebody to really get into this game.
 There's a lot of complexity to it, and I wouldn't really view it as an issue if it's hard for you to get into.
 This is definitely like an ARPG
 enthusiast game.
 So if you're not super into
 ARPGs, then it's gonna be
 hard for you to get into this game.
 It's very high barrier
 to entry? Yeah, it's probably one of the highest barriers
 to entry for any game.
 But it's like once you get there and you're doing well
 and popping off, it feels really good.
 Okay. Jesus, where are the fucking... Where's the items man?
 Oh my god.
 There finally.
 Okay we're making it
 Someone ironically said Diablo 4
 and Diablos are better than POE
 Yeah a lot of people think that.
 The reason why is because most people like... You've got to keep
 in mind, like, most people that play video games
 you know, inside of the bell curve
 are in the middle, right? They're not going to be like by just
 nature what that means. Um... they're casual players
 so they're not really trying to play and take a game super seriously or whatever,
 They're just trying to enjoy themselves and do whatever the fuck.
 And so PoE is definitely like a hardcore game
 It would make sense that a lot of people that are
 less hardcore players would be more than willing to
 play just Diablo 4. And that's more than enough for them.
 Right? That's not really a bad thing either.
 Nice! This thing is insane.
 See, now we're doing a lot better.
 After I clear this area
 We're gonna go back and send out our guys
 You gotta understand
 No one starts as a hardcore player
 Yeah, but like there are games
 Like so you want to have a game that like
 Inspires casual players
 To become hardcore players
 That's my mindset of it right
 Is like that's what really kind of separates a good game from
 a bad game is which games makes you
 want to spend a lot of time playing the game.
 Like I said
 before, a good game doesn't waste your time
 but it makes you want to waste your time
 and I think that's game doesn't waste your time but it makes you want to waste your time
 and i think that's kind of the way that i look at poe
 uh oh i think this is going to kill all my minions. Uh oh. Okay, that one's dead.
 Alright.
 Is he playing a minion build? Yeah, it's kind of hard but uh...
 It's going a little bit better now than it was before.
 Like this is actually- you know what's really sad? This is good.
 We're doing really well right now
 comparatively SRS will definitely carry the endgame though. Yeah, I just don't like SRS.
 I think it's annoying.
 Dude this damage is so bad! Oh my god! And it dropped nothing!
 SRS is a lot of spam? Yeah.
 Like, I like the idea of being able to summon in skeletons on somebody
 but like having to deal with all this stuff oh it's too much where the do i Where the fuck do I need to go?
 Oh, this is it right here.
 I need to turn around after this though and make sure i do the labyrinth trial here
 skullies aren't bad just use also in skeletons that's a great idea It's funny because like the boss, this guy is going down like a bitch.
 Jesus! That was great!
 Garbage. garbage.
 Okay.
 I think we go down.
 I do,
 I think that we're so...
 We're so down bad for damage right now that we just full invest into this,
 and I feel like if we do that,
 we're going to be in such a good situation.
 Like, in probably
 20 minutes or 30 minutes, we're going to
 be popping off.
 Where's lastpoch stand? I didn't play the new league of Last Epoch.
 I feel like the end game system that they had,
 I didn't really like it because of how short it was.
 And it's like...I liked that at the beginning but then I started to dislike it.
 I don't know what it was, it just seemed like the endgame hook didn't keep me that interested.
 I don't know, what do you guys think? Do you guys like it?
 Yeah. What do you guys think? Do you guys like it? I like Wolcen.
 I played Wolcen when it came out,
 and I remember Quinn was playing a lot but i didn't really like it that much
 momentum what the hell is this
 must be new.
 I just want a couple days with one human? I think so, yeah.
 I don't really know.
 Like the only game that I've really been putting a lot of time into recently has actually
 been The First Descendant.
 I've been playing that a lot.
 ... that a lot. Pay-to-win game?
 Uh, there's some elements to it
 that are pay-to-win, yeah.
 Okay. elements to it that are pay-to-win, yeah. But not
 really...
 I don't want people
 to get the wrong idea.
 There are advantages in this game that you can spend money on and achieve a goal faster if you spend money on this advantage.
 The Albi spin is crazy? Yeah, I heard about that.
 Okay, that's three out of six.
 Oh my god damn.
 God damn!
 They are just bro like it's...
 We're down bad.
 Okay, is that any good? Yeah, it is actually kind of good but doesn't have the gems...the sockets I want
 That's garbage. Let's get out of here
 Ultimate Val'vi soon? Yeah people had like that one build for her
 that was really good.
 Use momentum on your minions?
 I don't think that's the way it works.
 Last Descendant will have Giga Power Creep,
 I think.
 I don't know, like know like oh what's this I don't think a single one of these provides me with any actual value besides desecrate. Yeah.
 Let's go ahead and just
 go with that.
 Okay.
 And I'm gonna go get...
 I think I'm gonna go get...
 I think I'm going to get the accuracy one first.
 Purchase...
 Precision.
 I don't have enough for the other ones,
 because precision will help my minions do more damage
 which'll mean that I won't have to spend as much mana because they'll be doing everything for me and I won't
 have to worry about it.
 Also, Vowel Beast shows even more skin than Ultimate Bunny, the first gooner.
 The thing is, like...
 Oh actually you know what?
 Let me go do my shipment.
 Okay so
 we'll go over to King's March
 Now we're going to King's March.
 And I'm going to recruit a guy...
 Hire workers, okay hire workers okay
 and then we're gonna have can i do it from here
 i can
 okay we're going to assign her.
 Okay send a shipment. Alright let's go send our shipment out.
 Shipping. Crew one out of two shipment prepare the shipment I guess I'll ship out...
 What should I do? Should I ship this out?
 I'm gonna just do it and see what happens
 have you all of it Let's do it. Who cares? Let's just do it.
 Select port, okay.
 Set sail.
 Alright, boy!
 We gotta get some corn!
 We gotta go all over there and get some
 corn then we gonna gonna be alright and i think that collector awards
 this okay it's 42 minutes okay now let's get out of here
 go back.
 New content for TFD on August 31st?
 Yeah, I think that the First Descendant is actually more successful and better than...
 ...I think a lot of people predicted it to be.
 Yeah like, I actually think that... I think a lot of people predicted it to be. Yeah, like
 I actually think that
 I think it did better
 than I expected at least.
 Like
 I thought it was going to be trash.
 And uh...I think what it really shows is that
 making sure a game plays well matters a lot
 because the First Ascendant,
 it does definitely play well.
 Does he have proper betas?
 They did.
 They had multiple betas, and so did Once Human for that matter.
 Yeah, bro, we're really struggling with our damage here. This is bad!
 Jesus, we can barely kill one of these mobs.
 Oh, we got another Breach! Thank God.
 We did do the gameplay loop go for destiny too but like am i crazy
 for thinking that the first descendant looks way better than destiny
 i think destiny doesn't look that good it's like a visually unappealing game. We did it!
 Alright, that was pretty good!
 Destiny got no hoes.
 Oh yeah, I have precision. I totally forgot about that.
 Yeah... Yeah.
 I think that
 the First Ascendant having like
 hot characters matters
 but there's a lot of games
 that have hot characters
 that are bad.
 It's not like if you have hot characters
 it's some kind of a cheat code
 for the game. However,
 not having hot characters
 and intentionally making them ugly
 is a cheat code for making a game bad. I'll tell you
 that! I think that's very true. Jesus, just gonna teleport over there myself
 those are zombies
 you know exactly like and i think it's also like...
 ...I don't even think it's really the fact that like the characters could be unappealing
 I think it's more that
 The kind of people that want to make a game with ugly characters
 and aren't appealing.
 Probably, like...
 They don't really care a lot about what gamers want, you know?
 Kind of like what it implies.
 Yeah. Kind of like what it implies. Jeez, this slowing aura is awful!
 It will ruin Cortana? Yeah yeah, why would you not make cortana super hot it doesn't make sense all right what do we get?
 It's dog shit.
 Guys, it's dog shit.
 We got a piece of shit.
 Shit. We got a piece of shit.
 Great!
 Pull out the boots.
 Those are okay, but not great. Alright, let's go back to this one.
 Does PeeWee make you play through the whole campaign?
 Yeah, it does.
 I don't mind playing
 through the campaign.
 I wouldn't have minded it in D4 either.
 The problem is that the campaign was just shitty.
 Let's go to the bottom first,
 then we'll come back.
 I don't mind at once...
 Well, I don't mind going through the campaign but
 for me, I don't play every POE
 league. I play like every
 five or every other
 or like every three POE leagues.
 So because of
 that, I don't get like burnout on the game in
 the same way that i think other people would have
 which is i think a smart thing to do by the way
 rather than like you know playing every single league and burning yourself out,
 which is I think what some people do.
 Jesus, where are all these mobs coming from?
 Alternatives to campaign? Yeah yeah. All garbage.
 Okay, here we go.
 Big loot!
 Oh! loot does it give a benefit if they introduced a new way to level each league with the
 without the campaign that's interesting like maybe you could level all the way through Delve or something like that
 I personally think that's a You Think You Do But You Don't situation actually
 I think people might say they want that, but like,
 I don't think they'd really like that.
 Jesus. Jesus, this is taking a while. I thought my delve would be dope?
 The delves are fun?
 Yeah, I heard a little bit about that whenever they did one of those recently.
 Man.
 I am not getting anything.
 Like, I feel like I'm due to get lucky guys.
 This is fucked.
 This is really fucked.
 So we're helping Alara, is that right?
 For the Resist All?
 I'm feeling like that's probably the right decision, isn't it?
 I always kill all yeah but apparently they changed that Hmm.
 I got movement speed?
 Kill all is one passive honestly maybe i should just kill them
 maybe that is the right decision
 because like for minion builds like your your passives gives you a lot Hmm.
 Stupid?
 Well, it only gives one but like as a minion build you still get a lot out of those
 passives though like I don't know.
 I really don't.
 Necro gets free res from Ascendancy.
 Yeah, like I feel like I never have to worry about resistances really as a necromancer so
 Like...
 I think I'm kind of wasting my time by trying trying to get next uh i'm gonna kill all of them
 and you can respect that later on in the game anyway so it doesn't really matter I think it's a better idea.
 I don't know, maybe I should- I don't know.
 Fuck man!
 I really don't know, maybe I should- I don't know. Fuck man! I I don't know what the answer is
 kill crate help creighton i already killed him he's dead he's done
 yep we're not helping them.
 Hmm... Let's just get the 15 resistances. Let's just get it.
 It is going to make the gameplay smoother.
 I have changed my mind. We're gonna help Alora, we're gonna get
 the resistances and if it's a big problem later on i can always do it again right so it's a big problem later on, I can always do it again.
 Right? So it's not a big deal.
 Do I need to go into the spider cave?
 I caught some rats
 it's done yes i do okay so 15 all res is a good idea.
 You can't really get that on a node?
 Yeah, and it's also...
 I feel like it's just going to be useful.
 Like straight up, it's just gonna be useful. And uh
 especially going into maps and
 having that all res really early on
 in the game makes
 It removes so much friction.
 Okay, I'm just going to try Black Barn.
 POE hit all-time peak players?
 Well yeah...
 I mean that's not a surprise like
 The thing is like
 A lot of people really like PoE
 And also this league is
 a huge league. I mean...
 With having all this
 autoplay stuff?
 Because I think that
 so... and this is a big thing where it's obvious that
 A lot of games have these offline gameplay mechanics because that causes people to stay invested
 in the game longer.
 They're going to be invested
 and playing the game for a longer period
 of time, and that
 obviously gets more people to uh you know like it's like every day
 that you every day you log on there's a chance
 that you log on for the last time which is like sounds like morbid right
 but like from a developer
 that's usually what happens.
 And so having reasons for people
 to come back and play the game
 I think is really important.
 Quick Q I think it's like really important. If my computer can handle this?
 It got a bad fucking computer, then if you can't play-handle PoE, holy fuck. Do we resume right as well?
 No time grabs, still many mechanics.
 Yeah.
 Because I think that's the main concern
 that people have is that it's not even
 that
 let's go ahead and use this
 this is actually really big
 for me
 it's not even that people Let's go ahead and use this. This is actually really big for me.
 It's not even that people don't like those mechanics, it's that those
 mechanics are so often pretty much synonymous
 with Pay to Win or some other form of very unpleasant game feature
 that's not player focused.
 Cone helmet? That's new.
 At least I certainly don't remember it.
 Fuck, we're gonna. There we go. Daily Quest chores like WoW? Yeah exactly! But the issue is that...
 I think the thing is that it's not really a bad thing in a lot of ways
 because a lot of people really like the daily quest stuff
 and it also keeps people engaged in the game so it's like wait Where did my flask go?
 Did I throw it away?
 Oh. I read it as an IC.
 I know what i did wrong.
 I thought it was a mana flask You gonna play War Within whenever it releases?
 Yeah, I will.
 I'll tell you though like WoW hasn't really...
 I feel like there's not a lot of reasons to play WoW right now.
 I think that just more and more it's
 just like the game kind of has a
 you know, its got like core player base
 but i don't really think that a lot core player base i guess
 but i don't really think that a lot of the
 oh my god i'm fucking dying here
 oh my god. so I feel like I is so much of a kind of it's
 like a known entity right? Like for me playing the game
 I don't really feel like I'm...
 I don't feel like
 I'm doing anything new.
 Like every season
 and every...
 Every expansion
 feels the same.
 And I think, like,
 a really good way for me to say it is, like,
 I remember whenever Ian said
 at BlizzCon
 he was like, yeah, don't worry
 guys
 we're still gonna have He was like, yeah don't worry guys.
 We're still gonna have you know...
 Like what was it?
 You know like four new zones eight new dungeons and one new raid
 and i was like oh great you know this is the same
 shit i've already seen oh minions well that's really big oh it's big good Minion fast.
 That's massive.
 Okay, we're gonna replace...
 Summon Phantasm
 with Minion Speed
 And we actually need two of those.
 Let me see if...
 I'll be you, Iggy. Uh-oh. if...
 All this stuff is garbage.... I'm going to see if I can buy another minion damage. It's a live service game?
 Yeah, and...
 Oh wow. hello oh wow oh i didn't even know i had that
 nice
 can i buy this
 fuck i still don't even have an orb of transmutation. Man, we are struggling.
 Someone ID'd yellow? Yeah, I know.
 I'll get one soon. It's not a big deal.
 Okay... and
 ... Okay, and...
 I think we need more damage first. We're gonna get all of these anyway, it doesn't really matter
 Okay Actually Okay.
 Actually... Oh, yeah.
 We're going to get offerings for that.
 Okay.
 The shuttle makes a ramp up more rewarding whenever it happens yeah it does that's true Now the skeletons are doing way more damage.
 You guys see?
 Look at that.
 Now this guy's getting dicked.
 See, this is the way it's supposed this guy's getting dicked
 see this is the way it's supposed to be
 okay and let's keep going yeah see this is the way
 The game's supposed to play
 You guys see this?
 Like I
 Well I'm not even paying attention
 The mobs just do everything for me
 Okay After this I should get my uh do everything for me. Okay.
 After this, I should get my point too
 and so that's going to help me out a lot.
 Did you try the gold respeccing yet? No, I didn't.
 I haven't felt a need to do that so
 I haven't tried it.
 In like probably 15 minutes by the time i finish act two i'm gonna collect my
 first shipment
 we're going to kill this guy.
 Alright.
 Wassup bitch? What's up, bitch It's going pretty well. I got all those guys attacking me.
 He's got physical resist aura on, that's what
 those red circles are.
 Okay. what those red circles are. He dead, gotcha bitch You dead.
 Gotcha, bitch. Fuck you.
 Talk to Olara for your reward.
 Okay.
 I don't think I've killed... i've let a bandit live
 in so long i don't even remember like how to do that i guess we'll go back to her
 it's a new town? Yeah.
 Because like, that's a big problem and um...
 I think that's one of the big things people end up
 Like kind of moving away from PoE because of, is
 they will...like they'll do
 something in the game and
 it will kind of like-they'll make a
 mistake with their character or something.
 And then when that happens, they're just fucked, right?
 Because you can't afford the regret regret orbs like early on in
 the league so it's like there's just nothing really that you can do
 confusing orb that's good
 stop pwe because crafting builds is too complicated yeah Yeah, making a build
 is pretty hard. I shouldn't have read that. That almost killed me.
 ...
 ... so Okay, do I kill this one? Am I using a guide? I am.
 So for me, what
 i do usually... That better be a good one
 that better be a fucking good one
 ... so jesus look at the...
 Come on! Just fucking die.
 Jesus!
 Okay.
 ... so What a piece of shit.
 I'm gonna loot all this just so i can sell it, because I want to make sure i buy that upgrade for my zombies
 how do you buy a ship?
 I don't know. Yeah, I'm not sure exactly how it's all supposed to fit together.
 Okay let's see can I teleport over the western area? No I can't fuck...
 Okay well I'm gonna finish this first though
 Jesus
 this is bad.
 Just use a guide? Yeah, I think using a guide is a good idea
 Because like there's just Using a guide is a good idea.
 Because like there's just so much to the game that it's hard for... It's hard for an average person to figure all of that out on their own.
 I know obviously
 people don't want to use a guide for
 whatever reason, but I think it is
 probably the better idea.
 Okay, there she is. We got Lucky here.
 We found her quick.
 Alright! Health! Health! Health.
 Nice!
 Okay, and Okay.
 And so, since we did all that we'll teleport away.
 Okay.
 Okay. I'm just gonna sell all this? Hopefully this is going to be enough
 To do the transmutation
 Yeah it is
 Okay we got two of them now
 That's great all right now
 we're gonna buy this one here. here and...
 Okay.
 Minion damage minion damage
 oh i already have it, I bought the wrong one.
 Huh.
 Oops.
 Well, I guess we got phantasms again.
 Eh? Well, I guess we got Phantasms again.
 And the way he goes! Alright...
 Let's go back this way.
 Campaign can be done ruthless without a guide
 oh yeah for sure it can be
 it's just that
 it's a lot harder
 and I think
 like when a player
 makes a mistake
 that they're not able to recover from,
 I think that's when they're probably going to quit the game.
 And I think having those quit moments early on
 is unnecessary.
 You don't have to have that, it's not like making a game better
 to have this. So I think
 games should try to avoid having those quit moments as much
 as possible it doesn't mean like you can't ever have
 something like that but i think that in general
 it's not really a good thing for a game to have
 this is going way better by the way like i can already tell like there's a big difference.
 Getting Crabsouls was cool?
 Oh, I mean like having... Like getting people different modes to kind of...
 Ooh.
 Do I want to do...
 Was it Incursion?
 Oh no.
 I don't think I'm ready for incursion
 Do you just need... yeah
 I feel like I'm not really going gonna be able to make much progress with it,
 or do anything that matters.
 Jesus! Jesus. Bro, everything's getting killed! Oh my god.
 Nightmare Incursions? What game was that in? That was in WoW, right?
 Oh yeah! Phase 3 of Sod sod what a piece of ship that was
 that was crazy That's actually what I needed. um
 we're gonna try and get the melee cleave actually let's do skeletons for the cleave instead. fuck
 i can't use this right now. Oh, here's another one too.
 Yeah, I think that...
 We do this. Speed and we get rid of minion damage for now,
 and we swap it out with this.
 I'm gonna see if this makes a big difference at all.
 Because, I-I'm really hoping that like his melee cleave damage will matter a lot.
 Yeah it is... You see that?
 That's huge.
 Okay. Okay.
 Act 2 still?
 Yeah.
 Yeah, I'm not trying to speed run it or anything like that. I probably could have gone by and done it faster but I didn't really want to do that.
 I feel like it's not really worth doing that
 Jesus where the fuck am i supposed to go
 okay we need one more and then we can get a big upgrade.
 Yeah, somebody's already level 63! Holy fuck!
 This is insane. I'm actually really curious to see how well this boss is gonna go because like there's a good chance I could just
 totally pop off and kill it or
 it's just going to be awful.
 What's max level?
 You can get level 100.
 I've never gotten level 100, ever.
 Every league, the first day of the
 league, I'm going to get level 100.
 And then the fourth day of the league,
 I'm not going to get level 100.
 Getting 100 is hard, uh the reason why is because you lose a lot of experience
 when you die like and-and you'll get to the point
 where like you'll be losing more experience than you'll be gaining.
 9 to 100 death penalty is too much in my opinion, way too punishing?
 Well regardless of if it's too punishing well regardless of you know if it's
 too punishing or not it is what it is and so yeah i
 I feel like it is very oh ritual. I really like Ritual.
 Holy fuck!
 Holy fucking shit. Who is this guy?
 Bro, what the fuck is this? so Jesus!
 Ah, damn!
 There's no way it's gonna respawn on here right Oh my god. oh Is it over? Oh!
 Okay, well one of these is gonna be really good okay?
 Aw damn. God damn, I know!
 This is brutal.
 Grand Mana Blast. Do I have one of those? I do. is PeeWee fun?
 Uh, yeah.
 Yeah, I mean, I'm definitely like
 right now
 people are probably like, man
 Man
 this game sucks! Let me assure you it's me not the
 game
 this is really bad, I am getting fucked.
 Like, you'll see, right?
 Whenever I start popping off...
 Oh, here we go!
 20% damage, 10% attack speed.
 This is massive guys.
 This is actually huge for me.
 I just got a really good passive upgrade.
 So now I should be doing way more damage.
 Okay. Now I should be doing way more damage. Where the hell...
 Oh, you don't go here till later?
 Where the fuck are the other rituals?
 There's one.
 The elbow 5 will kill poe yeah we'll play it play a lot last guys up plant while it lasts guys
 no it respawned the big guy I'm dead. Oh no! So, it's popping again. so Oh
 We got it've got one more.
 There's another one of these fucking things we gotta do.
 Where is it?
 Jesus. It's gotta be down this way, right?
 It's got to be down this way, right?
 It's not. Okay... it's up to be up this way? Yeah, it's up this way.
 Bro, this is no joke!
 We've got to get a Spectre... we've got to get something man
 like we've got to get a fucking carry-
 We've got to get a carrying goal goal that's what we need
 if we get a carry and golem, that's gonna change my life. you'll see Man, the build's fallen off.
 Bro, the build's not falling off.
 It is not.
 You know why it hasn't fallen off because it's never been on
 it's it's been bad at level one
 it's bad now it's never been it's never there's nothing for it to fall off of.
 Over way, okay.
 I don't have a movement skill either.
 Okay i'm dead. Dead. They're gonna get me.
 Jesus...
 I hit the wrong button too?
 Okay i hit the wrong button too okay
 um well at least now i finished this
 that's interesting i've never seen that
 before. Ring is okay.
 This ring?
 I don't think any of these are good, honestly.
 I think I'm just gonna get the neck.
 Yeah Makes cheap, it's just one C right?
 Ring is insane I can't defer.
 I can't buy it because I died i have to get the neck
 shouldn't have died
 okay let's go back.
 That was good? Yeah I know. You can't defer on a level yeah Yeah, it said you have to be 46 or higher
 to defer.
 Yeah, this is awful.
 This is so bad.
 I hope things turn around and get better soon
 because it's just it's going so badly deadly. You need big damage? I know! Yeah, I just don't really have the damage. I should probably go buy that mana regen thing too. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
 Okay. Next time we get to an area we'll go
 back and we're going to check on our shipment okay guys
 this had better be something good Okay.
 Leveling build? What build are you playing? I'm doing a minion build.
 It's ramping, okay? So like it's not good right now but in...
 143 hours it will be good.
 Yeah. To be fair, that is like I one time I did a build. It was called Ward loop and it actually took me 85 hours to complete the build but when I did it was absolutely fucking glorious.
 The build was so fucked up and so broken that it gave you a headache to even look at the screen.
 It was probably one of my biggest accomplishments I've ever had.
 You didn't even have to press a button, you didn't have to do anything
 see like what's weird is like these mobs just get destroyed
 but outside of that, I struggle so much.
 Regalia orb.
 Calling wand! Calling Juan.
 Alright!
 ... Alright.
 I'm debating whether it's worth it, because It doesn't have the gem sockets that I need and
 I'm gonna try- I'm gonna roll it with an Essence.
 And we'll see if it works.
 Dude...
 Oh my god!
 Jesus, these guys get fucking destroyed. Just by one big bear. Yeah, exactly
 Okay, well on the positive side we're going to get more health and damage right here so
 this should help me out a lot.
 Okay, we are almost here so now we will be able to try and get our new shipment.
 Okay, here we go!
 Um... um do i have to go over here let me see
 got some goods in local shipping rewards All right. Y'all ready to see the big loo?
 Here we go. so so Huh! Take all. Let me see if there's something...
 Okay.
 Now let's go over here, talk to this guy.
 Ooh! Now let's go over here, talk to this guy.
 Ooh!
 Okay... I got pizza goldfish i'm almost out what
 okay um Okay, um... I'm gonna buy all these guys.
 I'm gonna do it again! them
 we're going big money into these shipments i'll tell you that holy Holy fuck! Give me more- aw man.
 I need more of this?
 Mmm... this
 hmm
 okay
 I'm going to try them.
 I mean, I'm not adding more gold especially.
 Um...
 Okay, let me see if I can upgrade my mind.
 We gotta look at a gear and a mount.
 Don't worry, we're gonna do this. Real quick watch watch. There it is
 Okay good
 And then we have the mine
 and you ain't doing shit
 They love mines This dude is a this guy Do we need more than...
 This dude is a... This guy needs a lot of money,
 so we're going to go ahead and have him
 working his fucking ass off.
 All right.
 And then we need another boat boy.
 Where's the boat boy? There we go, okay good.
 Alright great and I can't upgrade this yet unfortunately.
 Okay so we've got Ori Chalcom that is maxed out we've got all the miners over there
 okay good and
 now we just need more orichalcum.
 Let's send out another ship.
 Motherfucker! Motherfuckers... Yeah, fuck him.
 Killed him. Okay.
 Prepare to kill him. prepare fitment i'm gonna have them send out there's not that much there's only 256 but we just go with this right?
 This is a real beast ship.
 Fuck the port.
 I might as well just send him out again.
 Dude, this is fucking crazy.
 Okay. Okay.
 I want to make sure I did everything right.
 Ooh,
 I need to get...
 Oh man,
 I need to do...
 We need to come back
 to this.
 Let's come back
 to this one
 after Act 2.
 On what level am i uh 27 okay so i get these next level
 we need to recolor though
 uh
 i'm gonna go over here.
 Okay, so what do we want to use? This is a piece of shit that's going in the garbage. Alright
 Look at this, this is fucking insane
 Look at that
 68 life at level 21
 Okay Okay. So... I'm going to go back and look at the map How do we take maximum advantage of this? Let's re-roll the helmet's colors
 okay so we have blue. We don't have green.
 How do we do green?
 Lesser projectiles. Fuck!
 I can make them do cold damage, maybe? Does that seem like a good idea?
 ... Does that seem like a good idea?
 Ah, lightning damage?
 No, that's blue. You want me to chroma it again?
 Okay. When do I get my next set of like upgrades? Because maybe what I do is I don't do any of this right now?
 And I wait
 until I get my next set of upgrades.
 Let me alch
 and see what happens.
 That doesn't really do a whole lot for me, honestly.
 It really doesn't.
 I think we keep going for now.
 Because it's just the colors that aren't right.
 Next shipment is probably gonna be better anyways. It better be.
 Okay, let's make sure we get as many of these as we can then.
 I'm so stupid.
 I forgot to get clarity.
 I'm just going to go back and get it right now.
 Yeah,
 I wanted to buy clarity.
 I forgot. What does Clarity do?
 It gives me more mana.
 Do you guys think that I should also get Vitality?
 I don't think I should.
 Note of vitality?
 That's what I'm thinking, too.
 Okay, flesh offering is mandatory.
 Fuck! There's like nowhere for me to even put it.
 Um...
 I'll figure it out.
 Because, like, the only negative with all
 the items that I already got...
 I just got a minute ago...
 Is that every single one of them is...
 Not a single one of them has basically
 armor. There's three different
 versions of an item, right?
 So there's an item that can have
 energy shield, an item that can have energy shield,
 and items that can have armor
 and an item that can have evasion.
 Evasion is green
 Armor is red
 And Energy Shield is blue.
 I got zero fucking blues.
 So it's like
 although the upgrade was very good
 and I'm glad that I got it,
 it's not what I had wanted ideally.
 Because now I only
 have four chroma keys that I can use
 to change their colors and
 if I do that then I can't use that in the future
 and those have high value later on
 in the game. Because like let's say
 you get an item that is really good
 but you need two blue sockets
 on it, but its red green for example
 right? Or yeah its red green well your example. Right? Yeah it's red-green. Well you're gonna
 struggle on that so that's why
 you saved the chroma keys for it
 I think it's this way
 You can trade for them, though? Yeah I know. But if I trade for them then I'm using the opportunity cost of trading for that item instead of another.
 There's always a cost
 did you buy the 500 supporter pack no not yet
 i should have for that for the league start i just didn't even think of it okay okay
 i'm really curious to see how this boss is gonna go
 i think it's either going to go really well or really not well. And if I had to guess,
 I think it's going to go
 really not well.
 So Wow!
 Great. Better than Diablo 4?
 This game is a lot deeper
 than Diablo 4, um...
 Like why did I stop playing
 Diablo 4 this league
 i just had other things come up uh i actually didn't quit out of boredom or
 anything like that i just had other things happening
 that i had to do instead of Diablo 4.
 Yeah, it's not even like I hate the game or anything
 I just did something...
 was busy doing something else
 Okay here we go! Here's the boss.
 Was it Elden Ring? It might have have been yeah i don't remember
 this guy used to be the last boss in the game Alright, let's do it. She's killing all of them.
 She's literally killing every single one.
 Just killed all of them. killing every single one
 good all
 just killed all my oh my gosh
 they're all dead.
 Spray. Okay. They're dead again, okay. Alright, yeah.
 Right, okay. Great.
 Great, we did it guys.
 We did it!
 Wow.
 Wow.
 Amazing!
 Let's go this way.
 We did it?
 We barely did it. Ooh, Exile.
 We'll get something good here for sure. Decent boots.
 But it's just the wrong...
 It's like, it's the wrong
 colors, man.
 Oh! It's not a race, it's a marathon? What happens if you lose both? Check the vendor in Sarn.
 You're right, you're right, you're right.
 Nothing happens? Yeah for sure.
 Probably should take some of this uh this loot I'm hoping that like with those items,
 I'll be able to get some pretty big upgrades.
 I gotta help this girl out.
 No Marauder?
 No, uh... I really considered it
 but
 I didn't feel like
 any of the builds
 were interesting or good.
 So, I decided to not do it.
 Ooh!
 That's big.
 Community chill and freeze, ignite, burning...
 Let's get rid of this one.
 Okay.
 I also don't have my movement speed anymore. Yeah, so for me...
 The effectiveness of a build
 A big component to me is how easy it is to play
 So I can play with my brain turned off.
 There's a lot of builds that are very good, but they're annoying to play and I hate them
 I will never do no absolutely fucking not
 Yeah builds Ron moments right okay we gotta go this way yeah builds are on molten's right of uh of the zenith jug
 yeah maybe i should i don't know what that is i didn't see that if i had seen it i might have gone with i feel like molten strike
 is pretty small though right and
 so you have to like sit there and cast it over and over that's annoying i don't want
 to do that like bro i'm lazy i want to be a lazy okay all right here we go you guys ready
 minions deal come on please big numbers let's go so Fuck.
 That's crazy!
 Wow!
 There is nothing else
 god damn stay out of the shadows holy
 shit
 when do i Holy shit! When do I buy the gems?
 Can I buy the gems now
 okay i have nasa does she update it now i don't feel like she updates it now right Yes?
 Okay. I can't have a green.
 I have six chances to have the right
 roll. Actually, wait a minute...
 Okay.
 So what we do now is we take this over here and we have the armor that we have now.
 And then we take Ray's zombie and we put it to here. We take minion speed, and put it to here. We take Minion Speed, we put it to here
 Then we take Melee Splash and put it to here
 Then we look over here
 Then we purchase
 See if there's any more support
 What do we have? We have Spell Totem,
 okay, there is no other red support for us
 to use yet. It seems like
 there's not but there will be
 so what we're going to do now is we're
 gonna put this chest piece on instead of this chest piece, we get rid
 of this and then we put this on and now we have
 this bonus with this here too.
 That way I don't have to use the items.
 Okay, I'm thinking...
 Oh and now I can use clarity!
 Okay good.
 Then... what about my other items here?
 It would be really nice to What about my other items here?
 It'll be really nice to use this item.
 Look at this item.
 That's big dick, that's huge.
 Massive!
 But I feel like I'll be losing too much out on this.
 One, two.
 Literal trash.
 Literal trash rolls. It's not worth it.
 I guess what i'm gonna do is...
 ...I'm going to use an orb of- No, no, no!
 This is so bad, this is so bad.
 Let me just put these away.
 I'm going to vendor them later but I don't want to deal with it right now.
 Okay... Okay.
 No, it's fine. I don't want to essence... Because essence won't increase its item level.
 It just has a very low base right now.
 Dude, this is fucking massive by the way!
 This is insane!
 This is disgusting! How the fuck did this happen?
 Is the ship back? No, it's not. But we'll be able to upgrade
 the ship area after, like maybe...
 Maybe next time we go back to town.
 We'll look at the ship area.
 Okay let's make sure we do this.
 I guess I'll put this here.
 I can just clear that slot.
 Okay, W and T.
 That's good.
 Alright, and...
 Make sure we get all these upgraded too.
 Can I still only make five? The four. Yeah, so you see how my mana is coming back really fast now?
 Like that's why I wanted to do that.
 So like as soon As I get a melee damage support
 I'm gonna put it on this
 On the chest piece
 And it's gonna be a huge increase.
 You guys see how the damage is now? This is nuts.
 I actually think this made a big difference.
 What do you guys think? this made a big difference.
 What do you guys think? yeah this is Oh no, I can't use that. Never mind.
 I misread it.
 You should ascend? I can't, uh...I have to do act- It's like Act 4 or some shit
 before i can ascend.
 If I could, I would.
 Because it's the other way around. This one?
 But no, as soon as I can ascend
 I will ascend
 because
 I feel like the
 necromancer...
 Is it act three?
 Okay, good.
 Well whenever I'm able to... What level iscer? Is it Act 3? Okay, good. Well, whenever I'm able to...
 What level is it? Is it 35 or 25?
 The fuck is it?
 33? Oh man.
 Maybe if I get that shield...
 You just need the trials, okay.
 Yeah we'll go for it.
 You can do it earlier but it's tuned for 33.
 Okay.
 Because these areas is like 24 and i feel like i'm pretty far ahead here Ascend is not level based? Yeah, but I was just getting...
 Just so I could get a read on how difficult it would be.
 That's not very good. so sure you mean this can survive it though at your current build.
 Bro, my minions couldn't survive the fall over soul you think they're gonna be able
 to survive a zaro?
 There's no way!
 Get the fuck out of here! Oh, you're gonna get destroyed!
 Now I will say that it'll be way easier to resummon them though because now I have
 the uh... what do ya call it?
 Ah, no I've got other uh
 i've got the clarity so i can just resummon them
 you guys notice like i'm not having to get mana anymore right
 and that makes a huge difference.
 Yeah, now I- you know what?
 I feel like that weapon really changed things.
 Yeah, that's really made a big difference.
 Jesus...
 Jesus, this is bad. This is why I think I can't beat Azaro.
 This is brutal.
 Holy fuck!
 Okay...
 I guess I should probably try to roll this one too, right?
 No.
 Yeah it's weird how like some mobs...
 Like this is one thing I wish POE would kind of do a better job of.
 Is I feel like in a lot of cases there's like...
 It'll go like 0 to 100
 In a way that I think is kind of weird.
 Where you'll fight bosses
 that are weaker than random
 yellow mobs.
 It'd be good if they had more
 congruency there, you know?
 This any good? Nope.
 Why not pick up the loot?
 Limited inventory space... I feel like it's not worth it in most cases
 that's pretty good all right
 leather carp that's actually very good we're gonna put that aside Translockop, when are you?
 Uh oh bro like that's Not we don't do that bro
 Yeah I know
 That there's people that want me to go back and play
 WoW but um I'm sorry guys but uh you know not gonna happen anytime
 soon until the expansion comes out it's just not really worth playing right now.
 The game is very, uh... Very stale.
 I think.
 Like, for me when I heard that they were adding difficulty levels
 from molten core, I kind of lost interest in
 Season of Discovery.
 I'm like, this is cringe.
 Like what do you mean
 you're adding in difficulty levels?
 That's so stupid.
 Come on, all of us! Okay, how many more do we need?
 We need two more.
 Oh, I guess so there's the one, and then the one in...
 No.
 Okay.
 I'll figure it out.
 Yeah, all of them weakly MC? Yeah, it from weekly MC.
 Yeah, it's just like...
 I just don't like it.
 I don't know why the Season of Discovery team would do that, too. It doesn't really make sense
 to me.
 So you sold yourself like Blizzard? Tell me you didn't, bro. No I just don't want to play the game right it's really not a... It's not that deep
 Yeah I mean I don't know what you want me to say.
 It's just not worth playing. Okay.
 Let's see here... alright, um...
 okay yeah we'll go back.
 Now we should be able to get the keys.
 Yeah, wow Andes?
 Yeah that's not Deeprow it's just a game's ass?
 Yeah, that's basically it right?
 I mean like I feel bad for saying it but i think
 it's true pride take more physical damage
 I'm probably just going to get purity elements. I want to level that up in an off
 elemental weakness That would be really good because I'm doing physical damage right now. non-union allies so Maybe I do like hatred or wrath.
 What do you guys think?
 Maybe pride?
 I don't know. Hmm.
 Purity of Elements? Yeah, let's go ahead and...
 Let's use that for now.
 Okay, oh this is huge for me righteous army massive
 okay and
 i think we need to go to this next.
 The specters, zombies and skeletons?
 This is going to be huge for me.
 Debating whether I should get this too. Okay, well that's done.
 And we are going to use purity of elements 100%.
 Okay.
 I get that like some Twitch chats, the spammy thing...
 I hate that stuff so guys don't do that.
 It's going to annoy me or I'll ban somebody? Okay, and...
 Life flask. I guess we'll actually use this.
 Oh I need to vendor this too.
 Yeah I don't really have much of a sense of humor for that. I think it's cringe.
 Okay, let's see if we can get a good upgrade with the Essence
 maybe.
 Uh... I think we just do an alchemy orb on this.
 I'm going to do it.
 Wow, that's really bad
 yeah that's really bad. Okay.
 Well whenever I get a green support gem I will probably use this too
 Scour an Elk? It's not worth it
 It's such a low level like it doesn't matter that much.
 Okay.
 Now let's go back.
 I'm gonna get our badges
 for tomorrow night- oh, oh yeah! I don't know if I'm gonna go or not for tomorrow. Oh, yeah.
 I don't know if I'm going to go or not.
 Like, I'll let you know in the morning, right?
 Because like...
 I'm not sure really how I'm going to feel or anything or...
 I just don't know yet.
 But I will...
 I'll text you when I wake up sorry i didn't see that okay we gotta go this way
 and then we have purity of elements. Oh my god!
 That's a lot of...
 I can't do that. That's too bad.
 I'll keep leveling it up though.
 I'll be able to use it eventually.
 Got her back to gaming? Oh, I'll be back to reacting.
 You know, I'll be back to reacting. You know,
 I just do whatever I feel like doing, you know?
 There's a lot of people that are...
 It's funny because
 there's actually more people that watch that are fans of reacts than fans of gaming
 But you would think that if you read feedback, it's the opposite
 The gaming people are very outspoken and like very vocal about like
 not liking react content but like a lot of react viewers just like
 you know they just watch it then they don't right? It's not really a big deal. See I'm here for both
 yeah kinda true, yeah that's why I've never really taken like
 that type of feedback very seriously, honestly.
 Like both? Yeah. Someone's watching YouTube? Yeah I think that's what happens
 right as a lot of people do
 There's only one there's two in the beginning area. Yes, I feel like there is.
 You ever seen contents good? Yeah. When you fall asleep, do you react as well as your gaming?
 Yeah exactly. Uh...I feel like that's what
 a lot of people do but like there are
 super vocal people that just like hate the idea of reacts I just did I know
 okay Okay. It's actually going pretty well.
 I'm surprised I'm doing as well as I am! Nice!
 I fucking did it.
 Holy shit! I didn't expect that.
 God damn. Goddamn!
 Okay, let's loot these and see if we get anything good. Of course
 we didn't. It's all garbage.
 Alright, let's keep going.
 And we gotta go back
 up to the top.
 Two stone ring?
 Yeah, it's actually pretty valuable this early on. Let's loot it.
 Attack speed and mana per kill... that's actually really good.
 I think we're just going to replace this now. Even though the other one had life and mana,
 I feel like this is gonna be better.
 I think also, like,
 we're getting very close to being able to self-sustain with mana.
 So, like...I actually feel right now that we are good.
 Don't be a sir out streamer, don't do this bro you just a retarded annoying person get the fuck outta my chat
 I've tried to answer two of your questions
 you're so stupid.
 I swear to god like the WoW players that
 I don't know what it is but like
 WoW- Like WoW players are so dumb
 Like its SO crazy to me. I don't know how that happened!
 I mean just raiding you'd know that's true but like it's nuts how dumb some of these people are
 this is very good
 i'm so obnoxious there wants to scan the fire? Yeah. No, I noticed
 that when I stopped playing WoW.
 I never had a game
 where people would be like
 that angry at me for not playing it.
 It was... a very weird situation to be in.
 Whenever I- hopefully, I get a Chaos Orb soon.
 I'll buy a...
 ...Val Skeletons with the Chaos Orb whenever I get one.
 Yeah, we're doing really well-
 I'm feeling good now guys, I'm gonna be honest.
 Like things are looking up.
 Okay, uh...we got to up to the top. Alright so...
 I'm thinking offering effect, right?
 It's either top or bottom.
 I just don't know which one, like...
 Which one do you guys think is better?
 Top? You guys are- Because I just- I don't know what the... I mean, 50% seems really
 good right? So let's just go with it.
 I think I'm gonna get get all three, though.
 Maybe it's a bad decision in the long run,
 but right now I'm thinking about it and it seems really good.
 We'll see.
 Okay. I Yeah, because being able to do more physical damage and just killing the mobs faster is huge.
 And also right now I'm full physical damage so's just a massive advantage that I have.
 But the offerings would help out
 a lot too. I don't know.
 We'll figure it out.
 Okay.
 There it is.
 Yeah, this is way better
 guys. This is nuts.
 We're finally not garbage
 this is amazing
 i forgot what this even felt like is pw2 coming out yeah we're ramping yeah we actually are it's not a meme anymore anymore.
 Oh, God.
 I think after this... Like, I think what we need to do
 is we need to go for
 um... is we need to go for...
 I'm trying to think.
 We go for Uber Lab, or not lab not uber lab but this lab wait is that what i think it is
 no it's not Is there any way I got that right?
 That would be crazy. If I got it
 Should I try to 2p- uh to like four socket it because I have some gems so i can use
 it on him let me take this one
 yeah okay i'm thinking the same thing One time I had a build that died on this guy, and I quit the game.
 Probably one of the best decisions I've ever made.
 Okay, I'm gonna try and do it right now. none of these are good
 yeah none of these are good i don't need any of this.
 I'm just thinking, like is there anything else I-I need at all?
 Discipline right? I like that's the best one.
 This is a big dick.
 There we go.
 Big dick upgrade.
 And, we have both of these upgraded now and we're going to go to
 this death attunement.
 I'm just thinking
 is there anything else I need here?
 No.
 This is Minion Life Regen... not yet.
 Ooh! That's really good.
 I feel like, yeah, Retribute.
 Let's just get that.
 Like, I mean, this is such an easy W, right?
 Okay.
 Here we go, guys.
 We have three of these that we can use on the helmet one two three
 fuck Oh. Look, it's such a good item that...
 Even later on, if I get it, I'm still gonna use it again.
 Yeah fuck it.
 Three sockets, zero link? I know i know i know it's really bad but i tried to take a chance
 it was just a bad decision that's all Okay, let's go this way.
 What the fuck is that... Petrifying Amber?
 What the fuck?
 31?
 31 rough. 31 Is it over?
 I guess it is. Cool! Alright...
 Well, we did something there. I don't know what
 it was but we did it!
 We got ourselves another champion's trial here.
 It's kinda like Blight, reallyight really okay that's what
 it seemed like whenever they were spawning farther away but like i wasn't sure
 let's keep going. dog shit dog
 nice Nice.
 Bro, I'm feeling so much better now.
 Oh! Ooh ooh! We got the ship came back!
 Prismatic Tincture.
 Oh, wow.
 That's the first one I've seen.
 Okay, let's go over this one.
 Next time we get to a port, We're gonna go and do it.
 Okay... Go back this way.
 Build's made? Yeah, the build is much
 better now. Like you guys got... I mean
 like bro, this was...
 Imma be real.
 Like, I was thinking to myself
 I was like man
 Am I gonna have to fucking quit the game?
 This is bad
 I feel like I was in a very bad situation earlier today, but now things are a little
 bit better.
 Silk slippers.
 Oh good.
 You're not in LA building? Nah. Ah, it's all garbage.
 Let's go this way. What I need to do is get a movement speed ability.
 I think actually now I could.
 Okay...
 One more! okay one more
 one more and we are done
 okay okay okay here we go boys let's see what we got hmm you should check out what came in from ribbon fell
 all right That's pretty good.
 Bound rune.
 I don't think any of these really have
 a lot of value to me.
 I-I think I'm gonna take this one, and I'll take these...
 But I don't really think these... These are all bad.
 Let's discard these.
 Yes.
 Okay. and now...
 Let me see if I can do all my upgrades
 and everything.
 Okay, so we're going to upgrade the shipping
 to Shipping 2.
 Okay.
 So now we've got shipping level two and
 let's take a look at the mining area
 okay that's good. And we can't do this yet, we don't have the wheat...
 Oh shit!
 We got a peacock? Damn!
 Alright.
 Okay, let's do recruitment level 2.
 Speak to Danig... okay. Let's go talk to him.
 Oh I have to talk to both of them?
 Alright, let's see what this is
 there you are i know you can't see it now
 but this little jewel on the sea will be home to a legendary forge
 someday we just need the will to create it
 and the resources okay well i'm gonna do it I'm going to unlock runesmithing
 can rune smith using bound rooms should i do this i'm gonna do it i did it right now it's done Oh shit!
 Damn! back in my head damn
 holy shit
 kill an ignited enemy. Inflict an equivalent of night?
 Oh my god!
 So now we have all this too,
 and that's the runesmithing table
 That's the smelting information.
 Okay, well we don't need to... I'm not gonna start smelting yet.
 Oh, oh I'm supposed to? I need to. Okay, alright. I'm going to do... okay
 I can't do this yet.
 I need to go by the workers.
 Okay let's go over here. Hello? all my experience farming tells me this spot should be lifeless and yet
 the plants teacher workers not available yeah i know we should till and so
 i'm very intrigued to discover the secrets of this land
 You native you call me Sonia if we'll invest in the proper tools
 I'll be farming here. And if anyone else wants to help well that's on them
 okay cool so we're gonna unlock farming and then we're gonna unlock pumpkins.
 Assign crops to a plot, okay?
 Currently farming wheat...
 Okay and we're going gonna have this one farming
 corn. Oh shit! Did you see that? I didn't even notice that.
 Speak to Johan for a reward.
 Yeah, I know that. We can now set up farming capabilities.
 Yeah, I know that.
 Okay.
 Farewell for now.
 So now we need to do town recruitment and we refresh.
 Ooh,
 we're going to hire this guy right now. And we're going to buy him too.
 And then let's see if
 we can get two more.
 No, these are all bad.
 I'm going to do
 one more.
 Maybe I should get the shipping... Can I buy this guy for shipping?
 Think I'm going gonna buy him. Our team continues to grow!
 Okay, so now let's make sure we allocate everybody to where they need to be.
 Okay, two gin... alright, shipping...
 And let's go ahead and put...
 Okay it's two of two
 right so nothing too big of a deal there prepare shipment
 i could do a really big shipment.
 What do you guys think about that?
 Like an $800
 shipment?
 Let's big dick it.
 Yeah, we're gonna do it.
 Red bar? It's fine I won't get hit. Nothing will happen.
 Fuck, I don't have corn... Okay, okay, so the favored resources are trading...
 Okay, I understand it now.
 Okay, well in that case let's go ahead and try
 and do this one here.
 Okay.
 That's a little bit longer. Alright.
 And I don't have any smelters right now so let's see if i can put these guys onto this here manage workers okay Manage workers. Okay.
 Wait, so can I have him farming wheat and then I have this guy farming... corn?
 Okay! Oh wow, oh there they are!
 That's right! Work bitch!
 He looks like my zombies.
 Okay, and...
 Now we just need more gold.
 No if they unionize
 We'll just kill them. It's okay.
 I don't know what I'm gonna do with this. I'm going to put this down here for now.
 Yeah, don't worry guys. Everything will be fine.
 Alright! Let's keep going.
 I'm still at five, right? Or four? Yeah okay, let's go.
 Oh fuck!
 I gotta go around it.
 Shit! Katabata? Shit.
 Kataba today?
 Yeah, of course. I'm gonna kill Kataba. It's not a big deal.
 Kataba is actually pretty close especially now that my build
 is like actually working.
 Because like,
 I'm going to be real,
 halfway through Act 2,
 I was like man, I really hope I finish
 Act 3 by tonight.
 But like now, I feel like we're really doing work. Everything's fine.
 Yeah, I'm not feeling like as much of a loser.
 If they unionize, we euthanize?
 Oh, I like that. That sounds really good.
 Okay, so this is one two three four five six
 So 6 levels and I get death attunement
 That's kind of a pretty big investment
 I hope that I don't really have a it's not like a problem with that
 yeah look at this damage this is insane
 this is so much better. Holy shit!
 I wonder if I can use Frost Blink
 again? Do I have it with me? Yeah,
 I do. Where's Frost Blink?
 Yeah, I can. Oh, thank God. Okay.
 ... What hemisphere of the skill tree are you on? The America Hemisphere. the america hemisphere
 the uh the northern uh the northwestern hemisphere yes
 which ironically is for all of the mobs that serve me like slaves. Interesting, um... okay let's go this way.
 Where do I need to go?
 Okay, so there's this.
 Aren't I supposed to kill that general guy?
 Pretty sure he's over here somewhere. What level is it?
 Yeah, I think I am.
 Let me make sure
 I do everything here before I leave.
 I think I'm messing something up.
 Double check...
 Yeah, this is so much better man!
 I still feel like we don't have that good of damage though
 like it's okay but it's not like great
 i think it'll get a lot better that's pretty good Go ahead and swap that out.
 Is there a way to Lunara's temple?
 Really?
 Man, what the hell am I thinking then? I know.
 I get it.
 I know what
 I'm doing wrong.
 I got confused.
 I guess we'll do the docks now
 anyway. I think I have to do fair graves, right?
 I'm pretty sure.
 Fair gravest of the docks.
 Yeah, yeah.
 So I was wrong.
 Let's grab a soul point.
 Okay, there's something I need to do here.
 Okay. Okay, there's something I need to do here. Yeah this is so much better man... holy fuck! Holy fuck.
 This level doesn't really mean a whole lot right now I'll do later
 okay skip fair graves you don't need them?
 Are you sure? I thought I did.
 I needed something out of the docks, right?
 That's what I needed.
 Yeah, I needed
 that there.
 I guess I'll just
 find him anyway and uh then teleport back the shipyard terror what the fuck Oh!
 Nice.
 Can I? No.
 What level am I?
 Let me see, I'm like 30-something?
 Low 30s.
 32.
 So this means that...
 I think the last ascendancy thing is in...
 It's in the garden, right?
 Yeah. Yeah, okay
 That's what I thought Yeah, here we go.
 I might as well pick up this quest
 okay and i don't have the eric damn it i gotta go all the way back now I need to tune on Settler's League? Yep.
 Yeah, I'm playing the new league.
 This is... It's been good so far.
 The only thing, I wish that the league mechanic
 you interact with in each zone was more rewarding
 as you were doing it.
 Because it feels kind of bad that you...
 Like you do the League mechanic but there's a lot of delayed gratification
 and it doesn't feel as good
 as let's say ritual
 or ultimatum
 where you're immediately presented with a reward
 And I do wish that
 was the case.
 Yeah, shipments are great though? Yeah, shipments ARE great.
 I just wish there were a little more reward out out of the per map stuff, right?
 Especially like... I mean,
 I would even be okay if it wasn't that big
 during maps. But I think especially for
 people who are leveling
 giving people something pretty cool that they can
 look forward to each area,
 it kind of makes leveling
 spicier. It makes
 it more interesting and
 I think that's a good thing
 well, I don't know.
 I feel like in Ritual and in...
 What do you call it?
 In Ultimatum League, for example.
 Both of those were pretty rewarding,
 I would say.
 Yeah, at least
 I thought they were.
 Okay. Yeah, at least I thought they were. Anything good? Nope. It's like that right there, it would be really cool if I got something more out of
 that rather than just being like okay you're done with the thing
 So yeah, I would have preferred that.
 I think maybe we can come around this way?
 No. Okay, I'm just gonna turn around It's obviously this way, you know
 Actually, maybe it's this way so Nothing good.
 Here's the thing gives a buff,
 uh... The other ones don't provide anything.
 Yeah, yeah, the buff is cool. I like
 the buff.
 I just mean, like, a currency
 reward because I feel like
 one thing that's kind of interesting for casual
 players is a league mechanic
 that gives you really good gear early on.
 Things like getting a really early
 Wanderlust or Tabula Rasa
 or
 that Wanderlust or Tabula Rasa or, you know, like
 that helmet.
 The purple helmet that has
 zero level requirement. I think
 that kind of stuff would be really cool if you were able
 to get that. Goldrim. rim yeah yeah exactly and so it's
 like i and i always see that being like that
 wouldn't ruin the game right uh it just makes the leveling experience
 more interesting for people so that that's really what I'm getting at.
 It's like fighting these is okay, but
 there's not any sort of real reward for it.
 It's just, okay I do the thing.
 Yeah like Legion.
 Legion is another really great example of a cool one where you just are immediately
 given rewards.
 It's kind of like how some
 of the heist boxes now would
 give you cool stuff, whereas
 before it would only give you that and you get from ice so it makes opening
 the heist boxes feel better i don't need that minion cuck absolutely Minion cock? Absolutely.
 Okay, let's go this way.
 I think minions are actually kind of hard to play now or they're harder to play than they used to be.
 They eliminate anticipation? No, I don't think so at all because like you could
 have both of them.
 Because for new players
 and more casual
 players, there's not really that much
 anticipation that the game
 has in the same way
 melee's popping off this builds a banger though yeah it's it's getting a lot better now
 not a cockroach okay i forgot if i have to do anything on here or not It's getting a lot better now.
 Okay, I forgot if I have to do anything in here or not.
 Oh yeah,
 yeah, I loop this. That's right.
 How'd you balance out instant gratification over time?
 Well, I'm just saying for leveling
 it would be good if the...
 It would be good if you got more rewards while leveling from the league mechanic that were not time sensitive.
 Like for completing the individual events during a campaign you got like a higher chance of getting
 unique or like some other cool items like that's really what i'm saying like i like
 for for maps it's probably i don't really even have the same opinion for maps
 it's mainly just for for campaign because we've already had stuff like that from
 from maps right like harvest for example where it's like every time you do harvest it's not like you're gonna
 get a bunch of cool stuff but like you're working towards something
 can i no Can I? No.
 Makes sense always while getting and finding legendaries and uniques, while leveling. Yeah it makes you feel
 like your kind of... It makes you feel
 like you got lucky you know?
 And I think that's a good thing.
 I see there it is holy fuck
 finally we found it.
 Now I'll take that over to Delilah and we're good to go!
 Perfect and we'll be good to go. Perfect!
 Blight? Well, blight you can get
 things out of the boxes, right?
 Okay Right? Okay, and what do we want to go with?
 I think we'll go with...
 Dexterity.
 Okay Okay. Is this any good?
 No, it's literal fucking garbage.
 I don't even want to look at it.
 Okay. Okay.
 Gonna be only playing D4 Ray RPGs? Yeah, Diablo 4 again it's like
 It-it's more of a casual game
 right? It definitely is.
 But I don't think it makes it bad.
 I actually think Diablo 4 is okay now.
 I think one thing that PoE does have that Diablo 4 doesn't have is that it has a variety of gameplay.
 Like, for example... It's a lot different playing Delve versus playing Heist versus playing heist, versus
 playing maps, versus
 doing bosses.
 I think that's one of the reasons why PoE
 has a lot of longevity is that
 you can figure out whenever you're tired of playing the game,
 You can find other things to do inside
 Of the game.
 That's a huge component, in my opinion.
 He was the only RPG like that? Yeah I know, well that's why it's one of the best games right?
 That's the point. Yeah, I know. Well that's why it's one of the best games right?
 That's the point Max out unique collection?
 Yeah, I mean you can do other stuff like that.
 But I don't really think that's real gameplay.
 But yeah...
 And I'm sure some people think it is.
 Jesus bro, this guy deleted my fucking guys holy shit Oh my God. Jesus Christ. Oh, Jesus.
 Jesus!
 Okay.
 When do you get specters?
 Yeah, I feel like I should have had a spectre by now.
 40? Oh fuck! Okay it's not for a bit.
 Fuck, let's go up here.
 After Gravesius? Okay. oh maybe it's now then You just killed him? Yeah, I know. That's what I was saying.
 Yeah, I just killed him.
 He dead!
 Yeah, these mobs are a lot harder to kill.
 What the fuck?
 Yeah, this is what makes minions bad by the way
 because whenever they're like
 focusing on multiple targets like this,
 that's whenever things really
 lose power,
 lose momentum, you know?
 Garbage.
 Yeah, and they run away.
 The running
 away shit is so fucking annoying.
 It's garbage.
 Oh. It's garbage. Is it possible to micro them?
 Um, it is you have something called feeding frenzy I think that's like how you target them
 uh but yeah yeah no there are ways to do it it's just um
 it's like you don't really get that uh convo yeah you can convoke them. Exactly. I forgot about that.
 That's where you spawn all of your minions on top of yourself.
 This way? Deathmark makes him single target?
 Something like that, is that it death mark? Yeah I don't remember what it was
 Oh! It Just round two.
 It's a lot easier this way.
 Okay... Okay.
 It's only level 1, too?
 He was too hard to get into. That's what a lot of people say. I feel like it is very hard to get into, but if you want
 To get into it, there are new players to PoE every league
 That's how the player base
 keeps going up, obviously.
 So it's not like you can't get into
 the game if you don't want to.
 If you want to invest into
 it and put time into it then you'll be able to do it.
 I mean... It is just a video game, y'know?
 Oh my god.
 What a bitch. No one's interested in serving PoE? Watch PoE University on YouTube?
 Yeah.
 It's definitely hard to keep up with everything though like um with all the different
 like abilities and everything in the game like there's so many different things that are like
 some of them are like kind of like semi-redundant that are in the game.
 And it would be good if some of those things did get consolidated.
 I would say, things like... What's it called? Um...
 What's this spell block
 thing? I'm trying to think of it.
 Uh, where...
 Like
 spell suppression? Yeah, spell suppression. Like, I don't think spell suppression should be in the game.
 It's like a redundant complexity.
 And there are probably other ones that are like that as well
 nice temple background music insane yes no it's right Nice temple. Background music is insane?
 Yeah, it's nuts right?
 The screaming and shit...
 It's like mandatory for all builds?
 That's why it's bad!
 Th-that's my point, right?
 What I'm saying is you already have
 resistances and
 I think there's one other way of scaling
 spell resistance.
 And I feel like when you have three or four different things that basically solve the same problem,
 it becomes kind of redundant and hard to balance
 and also confusing for players.
 Because it's like, you know,
 okay, well my resistance is capped and I still got
 one shot by this so it's like oh I don't want this one
 capped and it's like okay well
 it's just complicated.
 And I think it's a level of complexity that's not really fun to do.
 In my opinion, I think it's not.
 Huh... Huh.
 Are there still... like didn't they get rid of travel skills?
 Like should I, do I use this?
 Like if I used Withering step can i put it onto
 yeah how does that work
 not in the left flick okay Okay, we'll go down this way. That's ruthless?
 Yeah I don't know.
 But either way that's my opinion on it, right?
 It's like when you have three different mechanics that solve the same problem
 I think that it's kind of...
 It's like over-designed.
 Is there a move suppressed in nerf spells? Yeah. I think that or build it around a different type of resistance right like where you're focusing on maximum resistances rather than trying to introduce an entire new system.
 That's what I'd like. I think that oftentimes,
 the thing is with something like PoE,
 WoW has had this happen a lot too.
 You want to add in new mechanics
 that keep the game fresh, right? But in the process of
 that sometimes like... The game has so many of those new mechanics over a period of time
 that the new mechanics now become like oppressive almost right and it's
 like okay there's so much i have to do so much i have to know this is exhausting
 and you don't want to put yourself in that situation
 uh yes this one
 there's a good side though is there a
 good side to over-designing things?
 Yeah, I mean,
 a lot of people can appreciate complexity.
 And I think that
 complexity isn't...
 Complexity in games,
 I don't really think is really
 a bad or a good thing at all like it really depends on what
 the complexity is and like there's games like for example fall guys i think it's like a super simple
 game right it's a brain dead easy easy game. But the simplicity
 is what makes it, I think, a good game.
 And on
 the other side, Diablo 4
 should have more complexity
 and the simplicity makes it bad.
 So it really depends on what the situation is.
 That's pretty good
 okay boss time
 let's do it
 oh she's getting up Damn, she got fucking destroyed.
 Alright!
 That's it? Yes! Okay, so now I get Spectre? Is that it?
 Racial Cascade.
 This is here. Oh yeah, I remember they added that.
 It wasn't very good.
 Okay we are going to get Spectre obviously.
 Okay... spectre obviously okay
 pressure was there no i know i saw it i
 just wanted to get one
 first you've been piety now you must okay so since we have a specter uh i
 guess i should just go over to act two and get the gorilla right gorilla, right?
 Yeah let's go get the gorilla the shipment no it's not ready yet
 oh i need to actually put this in somewhere
 raise spectrum I'm debating, like...
 Is there anything that they can...
 Had to make them better?
 I feel like it won't really.
 I'm just going to put it in here.
 Okay.
 What am I not using a lot of?
 I'm not really using this.
 Okay. Okay.
 Come on, come on! There we go.
 And these are the ones that do it right am i crazy Yeah?
 Frenzy boys? Okay, good.
 And so now I can just desecrate to respawn them.
 That way, whenever I get my second one,
 I'll be better off.
 This is what I'm thinking, right?
 We go and we wait for...
 We wait for...
 We wait for getting that death attunement
 and then after we
 get death attunement, then we do the
 lab.
 Because that way we're popping off with like specters we do the lab
 because that way we're popping off with like specters and everything like we're totally good to go
 i think this is it yeah it is big damage yeah
 i think your second spectre you can go back and get the power charge one
 no i'm gonna just get attack speed
 uh the attack speed is just it's simpler it's easier frenzy charges are good
 i don't have any crit scaling anyway i don't really see it being that valuable
 also i'm gonna get more specters anyway so this might matter
 yeah now bro we are popping the fuck off.
 All right let's see how we do here. so Alright!
 It's not perfect, right?
 That one almost got in No, it's not going to happen.
 Totally my fault by the way.
 Completely unnecessary for that to have happened all i needed
 to do was build and i didn't build because i thought it would be okay
 okay um let's go this way
 yeah not enough damage.
 But it's getting close man! It's getting really close! Wait, you can get multiple frenzy charges from the same guy? I don't think
 I've ever had that happen.
 Yeah, it always was the case.
 Oh fuck!
 That's really good
 okay
 we have to get the last one now I'm assuming it's going to be this one. I thought he only gives 1 for War Cry? That's what I thought he only gives one for war crime?
 That's what i thought too, but apparently not. Okay.
 You can say max saxon or do they have enough attack speed?
 Let's we get a power charge one Yeah, no, I didn't even know that usually
 i thought that like that didn't have anything to do with it
 what the fuck is this
 it's a dead ass bitch that's what it is okay good
 um where the fuck is this thing?
 The library... I don't think I really want to do that right now
 That's just fucking annoying
 Maybe I should do it, though.
 Yeah, I'm gonna go do it
 because if I do library,
 I unlock a bunch of extra stuff.
 Yeah, I need the gems.
 Oh! Yeah, I need the gems.
 Actually...
 ...I'm gonna go back.
 I'm gonna make sure I get the...
 one more.
 Uh,
 I get the warp
 because
 I don't want to teleport back and that i can't find where i was at
 also like maybe i should try to get the uh the trial here first before
 uh what do you call it no i think that's where the big area is
 yeah before i leave so it doesn't like reset the zone
 unlock the port? I did.
 Actually thought it was over here
 Think its not
 Let's turn back around.
 At the plumb?
 No, it wasn't over there.
 I just went over there.
 I think it's this way.
 I could be wrong.
 Where's top right?
 Yeah, let's see.
 Yeah! Yep! Alrighty, boys... yeah yep alrighty boys this is the final one Not before.
 Easy, easy, easy.
 Okay. Now what we do is We unlock these talents or these gems
 Then we put in the gems you make sure everything's like min max as much as we can
 Then we do Labyrinth.
 Or sorry, then we level up one more time
 and then we do Labyrinth.
 Gems? Yeah, it's Ascension time?
 Yeah, exactly.
 Okay. Yeah, exactly. Remember I died here before?
 I want to kill myself? Yeah, I don't understand how people play hardcore.
 It's always been very surprising to me that people can do that because
 To me, if I played hardcore and I died
 I would immediately
 want to quit the game.
 Like, and I'm also the kind of person
 that, like, I would want to quit the game
 and then I actually would, right?
 Like, I would be agitated about it.
 Let me see... 4 pages...
 I think you have to go another area for this run.
 I don't remember.
 You die and it's not hardcore anymore?
 Yeah, but then I would feel like I've lost.
 I have a very
 toxic relationship with
 playing... Oh, is that a boss?
 I have relationship with like playing... Oh, is that a boss? That is the boss.
 I have a pretty toxic
 relationship with losing in games
 and one thing that I've learned
 is that it's just better if I don't
 play games that
 punish you a lot for losing It's just better if I don't play games that make you like,
 punish you a lot for losing because I will actually just maul out.
 Yeah whether I should or not is irrelevant.
 It's going to happen.
 Okay.
 Is this one...
 Same?
 Yeah, yeah. I have a really,
 really bad
 frame of mind for that.
 Where the fuck are the pages?
 Is it this? Yeah, it is.
 Okay here we go. We gotta get all four of these.
 ... these
 i think it's just better than was just only wow yeah i think most people do like wow is a fun game but... Also like it's really bad.
 I see some people that try to stream WoW and they only stream WoW
 And i feel bad for them in alot of cases because its like
 You can't do what you want to do. You have to play
 this game, right?
 And the thing is also there's people
 that try to go and move away from WoW
 and then people hate them for it.
 And so it damages their stream in the long term.
 Yeah, no,
 the community for the game is extremely...
 They're not gamers, right?
 They are like WoW players which is different.
 This is probably the most painless one I've ever had.
 The shopper by the way.
 I think that they have drops for the league.
 I'm pretty sure they do
 because they usually have drops every league.
 Okay.
 That's good RNG? Yeah.
 They're radically invested in the WoW?
 Yeah, they really are. It's weird because I kind of used to be like that too.
 So...
 ...I just kinda got to the point where
 I just felt stupid got to the point where...
 ...I just felt stupid for being that way, I guess.
 Like, I don't know it's probably the best way for me to say it.
 Get arrogance from library in Act 3, Deuce Clarity? Arrogance. Um... which one even is that? Okay, here we go. Fire penetration! fire penetration burning damage That's pretty cool. I might go with that. I think we obviously do feeding frenzy, right?
 Okay. So what we need is we need
 calling strike
 and we also need...
 What's the big dick damage melee support. Is it
 melee physical damage? I feel like it's another one, not rage.
 ... Mame?
 Yeah, it might be MAME.
 Because I have melee splash.
 I wonder if I should do melee physical damage or maim?
 I think I should do maim.
 You should use multi-strike?
 What even is that?
 Name on support minions. Yeah, you're right. Let's get both of them. Let's use this for the zombies.
 And then we'll use Mame
 for the Spectre.
 And then we'll also swap in Culling Strike
 for the Spectre as well, so that it can instantly kill the mobs.
 Okay...
 I think that we're good!
 I think we are very good.
 What do you guys think?
 I'm... yeah, I-I'm feeling pretty good about this.
 Melee Splash.
 Neat Shield for Spectre.
 Neat Shield?
 That was blue, wasn't it? I could do it.
 I'm gonna do it. We're going to get rid of purity of elements.
 Damn, bro. That's big dick.
 Yeah. Damn, bro. That's big dick. That's huge!
 Oh here is what I'll do.
 I will just put purity of of Elements and we'll put Minion Damage,
 And we can't put anything else on here.
 We'll just do this right?
 Just put it on my second level.
 That way I can keep leveling them on my own.
 It's the easiest decision of my life.
 Alright, we are almost ready.
 I think, guys...
 Let's kill Dominus.
 Let's get to the next act.
 Then we turn around and
 we do the um...
 We do the thing.
 Oh wait. Oh, precision's not on. And do the thing.
 Oh, wait.
 Oh, Precision's not on and Clarity's not on.
 I didn't even realize that.
 And this should spawn
 the guy, right?
 Okay. And this should spawn the guy, right? Yeah it does. Okay good.
 I just wanted to double check
 Because i think that the power charge gorillas only come from act six or seven
 right so i can't even get those now Yeah, X7 Ashen Fields.
 Yeah, it's go.
 You want pale?
 Well I'm probably just going to get two of the yellow ones
 for now at least.
 A guide that I looked
 at said to get Crush Claws, but
 those aren't available right now.
 At least
 as far as I know they're not.
 Okay. I know they're not. I also don't have a lot of scaling on the Spectres yet either,
 so their individual damage shouldn't be
 as relevant or important.
 Crossclaws are Harvest Spectres? Yeah relevant or important. Cross-cross
 are harvest speckers? Yeah, I didn't know if there
 were other places that you could get them
 but yeah, I know that they're harvest.
 Okay. Do you think this game is better than Diablo?
 Uh, do I like this game more than Diablo?
 I would say, yeah.
 I probably do.
 But I don't want to make this
 like a D4 bad session, right?
 It's not D4 bad.
 It's just that
 I think this game is really good
 and I think for casual players bad it's just that i think this game is really good
 and i i think like for casual players diablo 4 is great
 uh it's just that you know usually i play a lot and so
 um you know i'm not going to be as negative about it
 i go around
 we are almost there to have two specters this is is going to be insane, by the way, whenever I get this upgrade.
 It's gonna change my life...
 ...this next level will.
 We're going to get it before we fight the boss too.
 It gives me more specters.
 It gives me one more specter,
 one more zombie and one more
 skeleton.
 It's actually like an insane amount of value.
 Okay. amount of value. There it is.
 Okay, let's do it!
 Death Attunement.
 And then we're also going to do Offering on this too.
 Okay, so now we'll go ahead and Desecrate... That's A desecrate
 okay Where's the fucking monkey? where my monkey at No, it should re-summon the monkey Bro.
 Because it summoned him a bit ago and now it's not. This is some bullshit, guys.
 Go to my hideout? Oh fuck.
 Okay I'll do it afterwards then. What a bunch of bullshit, man.
 Okay I think I'll go this way. So now I can summon one extra skeleton,
 One extra zombie and one extra spectre
 And the extra specter is like the really big one right?
 I mean obviously
 Oh! I can just do it here okay easy
 here we go.
 Wait, what? That's a little one! I gotta do it again. Oh, look at him boys.
 And I just had my ship come back?
 Oh man.
 This is a big ship too.
 It's really a big ship.
 Okay.
 Big money.
 Big money, big money, big money. Let me see it.
 Oh!
 Oh! Oh! oh Oh, man.
 Jesus!
 Is any of this good not a damn thing
 how much it costs I spent all my money
 on this
 i got more corn right All right, we're going to do it again.
 This one's going to be different.
 Yep this one is going to be different, we're fine.
 Done... Okay set sail.
 Good luck thank you.
 Alright do I need to upgrade this yet?
 I'll have to make bars... okay
 That was some...
 That's so stupid, man.
 Oh, I just spent all my wheat
 so I can't use it anymore? Okay.
 Oh, let me actually put more money in the treasury.
 Okay.
 Where are we?
 Specter of God... Okay, we're good.
 Make some bars... I don't have a smelter! Or I would.
 Okay so now
 We have what We need. Okay, so now we have...
 We have what we need.
 We have our two gorillas
 We have our skeletons
 We have everything that we need to totally pop the fuck off.
 Like, and this is a level 33 area, so these are the mobs that we're gonna fight
 equivalent to this in...
 What do you call it?
 In the lab.
 Excuses just when?
 I'm not going to need an excuse.
 This is going to be a joke.
 If we're going to clear this,
 it's nothing.
 No golem?
 No, no.
 You don't get the golem until...
 What do you call it?
 Until act
 the next one.
 The end of the next one. Whatever the next one is.
 Is it act four? I'm not sure.
 Okay...
 Yeah, look at this bro. Like we're destroying the ship.
 Oh my god!
 See that feels pretty fucking good. We need to get that ball summon skeletons then what do you
 guys think is a good price for it how much should i try to buy a ball summon skeleton for.
 2C? Okay.
 1c? I'll buy it for 1C.
 Good choice. Bro, look who messaged me.
 Let him know
 I watched his guide.
 It's from...
 It's your guide, man.
 Yeah, I'm literally
 doing his guide because I was about
 to be mad at this suit in the game
 of strength because it went so bad yeah i mean god i know i've watched all of his
 videos yeah i i know him he's a good guy
 i know a lot of people in the PoE community.
 Just like keeping up with the videos over
 the years, you know?
 The Overlord himself? Yeah something
 like that.
 Damn, I didn't think that would work.
 Go up here POE 1 or 2? Well you play POE 1, you get a good idea of what the game is. Like, playing PeeWee 2
 it's gonna be like if you've played every other
 Dark Souls game and then you play Elden Ring
 right? Cause like you
 know there are all these nuances
 that the game has, that you're already
 primed to just understand.
 So a lot of the systems in PoE 1
 are gonna be in PoE 2
 Things like I think think delve and stuff
 like that right
 all that kind of stuff is going to be in
 peewee 2.
 so
 not all of it but a good amount of it
 will be
 so if you play the game now you'll learn that stuff for when the game comes out I think we're just gonna lead here, right?
 Like a big basilisk.
 I think, right?
 Probably I missed
 him, I think. Okay.
 Now let's see
 how this boss goes.
 ... ghost Damn. damn we're getting them so so so so Man! Just went down like a bitch.
 Oh my god, that was good.
 That was fucking great!
 Yeah, I said to use skitterbots? I will when
 I got the mana for it.
 I know, I know, I need to get them.
 That's the one thing i haven't done Oh, it's no fishbowl.
 I'm just like...
 You got no idea how good that feels
 after what
 I've been through today.
 Like,
 after what I've been through?
 Man.
 I really feel like I deserve it.
 That's garbage.
 Incredible dude.
 I want to see against Azaro.
 I wonder,
 y'all think
 I have enough health for it?
 Like,
 I've got 700.
 I feel like
 what is his arrow
 he's not two swords right if he's not if he's not two swords i win He is?
 Alright
 You know what's really fucked up?
 Is that's been the norm so many times
 That I'm actually confident in killing him
 Even with two swords
 Because every single fucking time
 I ask that question
 Somehow the answer is always yes
 So, I'm actually pretty confident asked that question somehow the answer is always yes
 so i'm actually pretty confident killing him anyway
 this fat This fat bitch.
 Okay, we're gonna do offerings bonus.
 That's big dick.
 Since they're gonna have that on, like, any boss situation... Anything, right?
 Increases their movement speed,
 their attack speed, their cast speed, everything, right?
 Colossus Life Floss. It's pretty good.
 Get that too.
 Game changer? Yeah, exactly. Bone Offering or Flesh Offering? In my opinion, like bone offering if you need to flesh offering if you can. Right? I mean, I feel like that's clearly the decision right?
 Yeah, because you don't want to use bone offering but like if you have to
 you do i'm going to talk to her and then we're gonna go do the labyrinth Yeah, we don't get the golem for a while.
 I've got to do like a few missions and everything but like by the end of this
 we will have to go on and then we'll be like pretty much good to go
 all right we're going for one right
 we'll go on for a while yeah oh where do i get skitterbots is it here?
 Act 2 is act 2.
 Yeah, I knew it was really early.
 I don't know how I didn't get it.
 I'm thinking i might have to drop precision for skitterbots. Well, it's only 35%. I thought it was 50.
 Okay. Keep your will have made peace, Turtle 5.
 Okay.
 Oh yeah I should've- Yeah I could just check the library you're right.
 To kill? Why? could just check the library you're right
 to kill why are you still standing okay stay out of the shadows What can i replace your mind in one hand
 thinking summon phantasm i think we get rid of Summon Phantasm
 It's just like, it's good but
 I don't think it's worth it considering what
 I don't have okay and let me see how much this is
 gonna give me
 oh boy oh geez oh she's okay i'll be right back that's bad yeah guys so so so uh so so Okay. So, where are we here?
 We're not going to be using skitter bots.
 Let me see if I don't use precision, how much do i gain?
 Ah geez! Ah, jeez.
 What do you guys think? Is it worth it?
 Skitterbots are worth it?
 Yeah, I mean they do give you It's electricity and chill
 Right at the same time
 I feel like that's really good.
 Yeah, let's use them. Let's see what happens at least.
 It sucks to lose the Phantasms but they're really not very high value anyway. Shock and chill? Yeah, we're popping the fuck off. Wait, did I just go in a big circle? wow oh wow okay what the fuck there we go i ain't gonna move these brawn down bad
 stay the out of that
 ball blade flurry?
 Damn!
 Can I always try getting rid of Clarity?
 Well, I'm gonna be honest
 like this seems really smooth.
 Like I'm not using the Summon Raging Spirits
 but I'm not sure if I'll really need to
 and as long as I can keep using spirits, but I'm not sure if I'll really need to.
 And as long as I can keep using the mana I can keep just using it as it comes
 up anyway so it shouldn't be too big of a deal.
 Yeah like we're just bro. We're just destroying this
 So you're gonna go melee happened? I changed my mind.
 Alright, here we go! Let's do it!
 Oh no... Here we go, let's do it! seven little knickknacks
 all right that's one down. Easy...
 Next! easy
 next
 you have to fight him three times the third time is the easiest and the hardest. Because, the fight
 takes like... if you end the fight
 really fast
 sometimes he won't immediately die
 so it makes the second
 and first one take longer,
 but the third one has more hazards on the ground that you have to avoid.
 We'll go ahead and loot that belt. That could be good. Probably not, but it could be. These minions are gross looking?
 Yeah, that's what they should look like.
 They're fucking undead skeleton
 minion soul-like slaves. Like...
 You think they should- what, you should be wearing a top hat?
 No!
 Absolutely fucking not!
 It's too dark to see absolutely not do you still need vol skeletons i do
 all right this is the second one. Nope! Nope. Damn, I almost teleported right into it. Man, there we go.
 That was close.
 Oh man, that was almost a bad time for me!
 Alright... we got one more. This should be the easy one.
 There was a lot of adds so it distracted the minions a lot made it harder You playing the whole update today?
 No, I can't finish it in one day.
 Like this is a...
 No, there's no way.
 Like I mean There are people that like do pretty much almost everything in one day in the league. But you know, that's for like people who are super hardcore for playing.
 For me? I just basically chill.
 Do you plan on
 leveling a second character?
 I almost never make two characters in one league.
 I usually
 make one character that's really good,
 and or that i think will be good enough to like get me through the whole game
 And then I just stick with that. bitch Where the hell is it?
 Oh, it's up top.
 Am I speedrunning this?
 I am? No, I'm not.
 If you think I'm speedrunning this right now
 You haven't seen somebody speedrun in the game
 I almost leveled up again too. I don't even know what I want to put my next point into. Do you like the league?
 Uh, yeah.
 I like the new mechanics.
 Like it gives you something that's
 good to look forward to, right?
 And I like that
 with like the shipments and everything aspirant can afford to be promising okay here we go I'm getting more and more mana.
 Claw your way to the top.
 You are not in your gilded dungeon. That was almost a bad time. That was almost a really bad time.
 Let's see, what are we gonna go with? I guess I'm going to loot this......and see if that's any good.
 Okay and what do I want to go with now? Let me pull up this thing.
 Reservation account, mana reservation... I think we go this way.
 Yeah, let's start going this way.
 Let's get these... yeah. Oh wow, I didn't
 realize that was so close! Okay then we go for that right now.
 Yeah,
 that's insane.
 I didn't even... What the f-? I'm so stupid! I didn't even...
 What the f-
 I'm so stupid.
 I didn't even know that.
 Fuck!
 Okay.
 Alright. Before your emperor, you are worthy. Before the goddess of justice, you are worthy.
 And we've got Transformer's skill gem to be transfigured of the same color?
 Do- do we care about this?
 I could do like Transfigured Feeding Frenzy,
 Like I don't have any...
 Do I just do this?
 Let's see what happens!
 ... Oh, it's not a skill gem. Okay.
 I'll do Discipline then.
 Okay. discipline then which one's... What's the most expensive one?
 This one?
 How much money is this?
 Unknown item. Okay.
 Necromancer?
 Embrace the serene power of this planet.
 Oh, man. oh it's fine oh man all right so so so so I think we do commander of darkness
 I'm feeling like Commander of Darkness. What do y'all think?
 Big dick?
 Let's do it.
 So increases you and your nearby allies deal increased damage.
 Does that mean if I get this...
 Oh, teleion Damage.
 Okay, I'm stupid. I didn't read it.
 Okay, that's why you read it.
 Okay, um...
 Let's get out of here
 list frost blank right now for 3c well it's a special one so i don't know how much to sell it for I'll just put it on auction house for now. Hello. Okay, are any of these good? That's dog shit.
 Uh, 5 all res is decent.
 This helmet has really got max life, that's pretty
 good but it's not better than what mine is because of the sockets
 That's garbage, garbage
 Garbage.
 I don't want to get rid of this one yet. I'm going to go ahead and do that.
 Got the gems too.
 Okay, I'm just trying to think
 and like process everything.
 It'd be really good that feeding Frenzy, but I feel like we can't really fit it in right now.
 I still have a grey shield. I probably should replace this.
 You know, like just maybe...
 Okay let's go
 you should put gem slots it's always visible yeah i never did that
 okay so next level that means I get a huge upgrade.
 Because I get more skeletons and more zombies.
 Yeah, this is so much better oh my god
 there's a big dick for sure yeah Yeah, this is so much better.
 Am I playing hardcore?
 If I was, I'd be restarting
 because I already died.
 I died in Act 2.
 Pretty crazy.
 Time one claw. More garbage.
 I saw a video about the guy 50k in debt. Don't want to be that guy. Uh, don't buy it? The guys too fake and stupid?
 No, I believe it.
 A lot of people are stupid.
 It's really not...
 Is it so unheard of to you that people
 are stupid?
 I don't know. You tell me there's some guy who's really dumb and
 addicted to attention that's donating all of his money away to get attention
 like bro like a lot of guys especially especially like people that are more
 um... what's the word for it?
 Extroverted
 Are like fucking starved
 for attention.
 So I don't think it's like
 it's not outside of the realm
 of possibility for it to be real
 like, I feel like there's a good chance
 it is real actually
 like, I would immediately believe it
 okay, here he is
 vole
 This I am popping off garbage this is great their dash and teleport skills yeah i think introvert people will be more starved for
 attention well it's like not really at least for me right
 I don't feel like I'm
 definitely a pretty introverted
 person where I usually
 like being left alone
 basically and um i've never really had like that
 that experience
 let's go this way.
 It's also like for me, I don't really have a normal...
 it's not like my situation is like what most people go through right
 it's like just how much stuff that i have going on in a lot of the cases and i'm also
 like nice stream until I'm talking to people all the time.
 And it's, when you stream it's different than
 let's say like
 because you work at a job right?
 Generally there are some jobs like this right but like it's not as common to like have people looking at you like non-stop every second right and so
 it can be uh it could be draining to have that happen
 and especially for somebody who's like you know kind of like more
 uh introverted like i would say i am right it's definitely different
 it's definitely different.
 It's like usually, my perspective is every job,
 everything always has
 its own
 set of complexities and complications, so it's not really like...
 It's not like it's a bad thing in a lot of cases.
 That's just the way streaming is, right?
 Usually by the time i finish my stream i'm just like okay i just want to chill
 i'm very much like kind of uh you know on cooldown okay this is huge for me right now.
 Okay, I get War of the Dead.
 Absolutely fucking massive.
 Okay, and now I get another zombie. And I can get another skeleton.
 How much do you play off-stream?
 All the time. I play video games all
 the time on stream, that's pretty much
 all i do. Like for me like a lot of
 people like watching TV shows, I don't
 really give a fuck about that. Like, I'll do it
 a little bit but like...I like playing video games.
 Wanna sound this, yeah.
 And like sometimes I go through phases
 where it's like
 I'm not playing any games
 and other times
 I go through phases
 where I just literally can't fucking stop playing video games.
 So it's not really like a one or the other in all cases,
 sometimes there is like...
 Sometimes I'm interested in doing this, sometimes I'm not.
 I'm on a can't stop phase right now?
 Yeah, I am too.
 Like, I've been playing a lot of the First Descendant.
 That's been really fun.
 And
 let me think besides that...
 Uh, I would say besides that.
 I would say, that's probably the big one.
 You ever watch other streamers? No.
 Very rarely, I'll watch streamers for a game that I'm interested in
 but the truth is like I really don't watch streams a whole lot
 Uh streams a whole lot.
 Why not?
 I think most streams are boring.
 Streaming is awful are boring. It's like, streaming
 is like its awful first
 monitor content and
 it's amazing second monitor content.
 Like if I'm playing a game,
 I can put on a stream and listen to it.
 But I oftentimes never actually pay attention
 to like the stream itself.
 So like I bet a lot of you guys are probably...
 It's later in the day now, right?
 So it's like probably not at work anymore.
 But usually it's like you're at work
 or there's something
 like that going on.
 Jesus, what a fat bitch a fat didn't even drop
 anything good you
 play some more crime if you like the
 first asunda the problem is that i don't think Play some Warframe if you like the first Ascenda.
 The problem is that I don't think Warframe looks appealing.
 Like the first Ascendant looks like a great game, but Warframe doesn't look good.
 I feel like also the First Descendant plays extremely well, and I can't imagine Warframe, a game that's 10 years old, playing that well.
 I could be wrong. I've never played it. It was just my bias, right?
 I haven't gotten a single Chaos Orb.
 I wish I did that way way, I could get a...
 the ball summon skeletons.
 You know what I should probably do? I should probably sell that fucking...
 What do you call it?
 That Frost Blink thing, huh?
 Okay. They're like 3 chaos orbs? Must be nice. To be fair, a lot of people are probably a lot farther than I am. Just keep moving. Have you ever had a nicotine addiction?
 I've never had any addiction.
 Like,
 I know what addiction is.
 And I... Like, I grew up like my mom was addicted to cigarettes.
 And it basically...
 She died from COd right and that's
 like brought on by cigarettes uh like one of the big reasons for it
 it's like the overlap there is like, if it's a Venn diagram
 it's almost a circle right? And so
 yeah I would not want to be in that situation
 ... want to be in that situation.
 Is this something that bothers you? Just traveling, just IRL then?
 Just stop streaming? Would I ever want to stop streaming or
 just like take time off? Maybe, I don't know. Like I don't really think about it a lot.
 Like I used to spend a lot of time like thinking about you know things in life that
 I miss out on or whatever but I felt like the process of thinking about
 that and fixating on it just made me unhappy. And so now, I don't really think about that at all.
 But yeah, anyway,
 so yeah, I've tried as much
 as I can to avoid any kind of
 addiction at all.
 Because I've just seen how it negatively affects people. It turns people into worse versions of themselves, etc. It's just bad in a lot of ways.
 Block spell damage? I'm debating whether it's worth investing this early.
 I think I'm going to
 invest towards the Golem Commander,
 because by the time I get there
 I will need to be there. Because right now it's really easy
 so I think it's a good idea for me to kind of like
 uh you know like kind of start ramping like big abilities rather than like
 getting the big capstones right now
 so yeah let's go with that.
 I think we're gonna do one Carrying Golem and then one Stone Golem.
 Behold the goddess! Yeah, see look at this damage. This is amazing dude imagine imagine whenever I get Ball Summoned Skeletons.
 It's gonna change my life. Okay... Okay.
 Alrighty, let's go! What build
 am I playing? Minions. I i'm playing all the minions at all the time Nice.
 Yeah, I really need to get that ball summoned skeletons man.
 I really do.
 It's gotta happen.
 That's not useful, unfortunately.
 I found one you can have it?
 Yeah, no.
 I don't want to have somebody give it to me.
 I want to be able
 to at least
 be able to buy it.
 So what do you guys think?
 Next time I go to town
 should I just like
 try to sell that Frost Blink or what? Yeah. so what do you guys think next time i go to town should i just like try
 to sell that frost blink or what people are saying like 3c for it
 yeah okay let's do that.
 I'll do it whenever i go back to my base.
 Diamond flask, it's garbage. Yeah, see like the damage now is fucking crazy. This is amazing.
 Is this it?
 Oh,
 it's one more.
 Do you watch any anime?
 Yeah, I do.
 I've been watching a show called Konosuba recently.
 It's been pretty good
 i got recommended to me
 so for one out
 that's a good show yeah i think it's all right
 I love it, yeah for sure. Okay here we go let's see how this goes with the boss bro i'm gonna destroy this
 jesus so Oh my god! Got fucked over?
 Yeah, he did.
 He got dicked!
 Okay...
 Now let's see if we can sell that item.
 And we can get Vol Sum and we can get fall summon skeletons okay so we're thinking about where to go Where'd it go?
 Did I sell it?
 Oh, oh right. Alright, alright.
 So what are we thinking?
 How many money?
 How many money?
 3C? how many money 3c Bro, bro, bro, bro.
 Stop.
 No, no, no.
 I underpriced this.
 Okay.
 Frost Blink of Wintry Blast.
 No, no, nah, nah. so I can sell for five.
 I,
 I could put up for
 uh, I can put up for five.
 Eight? There's no way it's eight.
 There's no way.
 All of these are... That one's six.
 No, I'll get five real quick.
 Does somebody got a Vol Ske all skeletons to sell can somebody link me up
 i'll give it to you i'll i'll get it to you for one c or well i'll give you one seat for it
 yeah there we go easiest game of my life One sees a scam. No, it's not?
 I'll look it for one ALK.
 Yeah, nah, nah, we're not about to do this 1C bro.
 Yeah, it is a scam
 It's a scam for me. I didn't realize that no I buy does anybody have one
 That's fine okay
 I invite you. This is level one, I'm not going um That's the one
 Thank you
 I'm gonna just keep it in my back pocket for now
 Oh what I'm going to just keep it in my back pocket for now.
 Oh, what?
 Do I have a... another weapon I can put on?
 Yeah, I do.
 This one here. I want to get it leveled up first.
 Because if i do it right now, it's going to be bad.
 So we're gonna get it leveled...
 Like, I'm probably start using it at the end of this act right like realistically
 It's garbage
 This tincture, I don't know what to do with this
 You strong now? Yeah, I'm good.
 I'm big good.
 Because now we're leveling it up in our offhand.
 I probably should be leveling more things
 in my offhand. I'm not doing that.
 Okay, we should be good, right?
 What did we not have?
 What did that even have on it?
 Prosperant clarity.
 That's what I don't have clarity on.
 I forgot how to tip this off. Okay, um...
 We good? We're good. We gotta do Cam's dream. So this is what the inside of a Kairu King's head looks like.
 Damn bro, I'm just doing work!
 Oh my god. Getting those levels, this is nothing man!
 Whenever y'all see like... This is nothing, man.
 Like whenever y'all see like... Cause there's some people probably have not seen what Vol Summoned Skeletons does.
 Basically it summons a lot of skeletons.
 That's pretty much what happens.
 You know what? Let me do this.
 I just realized what it's got. Actually, plus three life? What the fuck?
 Alright, and now I'll put it on my main bar.
 But just so I can show you guys what it looks like whenever I summon all the boys.
 That way I keep it in my main slot, and I'm going to just slot it in something else.
 Watch this.
 We'll put it on W.
 Oh my god.
 Alright, I'm just going to do it after this.
 I'm not going back to town again.
 Okay. I'm not going back to town again.
 I also got 10% more move speed there, which really he got a lot of health.
 Damn, like we are cooking man! This is amazing.
 Zooming? Yeah, we are.
 It took us a bit, though,
 right? I mean, like, it was bad for a while.
 I feel like we should be good on resistances, right?
 Oh, bro, we're 100%. We're actually 75%,
 73%, 75.
 Like I'm actually already max cap on res.
 It's disgusting.
 You're cocky?
 Yeah, I know, I know.
 I feel like the next reality check will probably be... I feel Malachi is going to be easy.
 I think Malachi's an easy boss in general, right?
 He just has one ability that's
 really annoying. It's like that rock
 throw into first phase
 I remember I killed Quinn one league
 Kataba? No, Kataba's easy.
 Like, Kataba is like one of the only bosses I'm not afraid of at all.
 Like, I mean...I could make a mistake and do something wrong.
 But like...
 No, no, what I mean is like,
 I think Catawba is...
 I think it's probably the best design boss.
 One of the best design bosses in POE
 because of just like, I think it's extremely fair,
 every ability he does is like
 extremely well telegraphed
 The indicators are very clear uh there's
 like a lot of problems that like other fights have but katava doesn't have
 verticals yeah yeah it's a very, very clean fight.
 Who's the hardest?
 It depends on why, right?
 I mean like I would say that...I don't know what the hardest boss is. I'm sure.
 I haven't done a lot of bosses on the uber hard mode actually i never have uh i just
 i never really got that far into the game
 i'll usually end up stopping before i get there.
 I mean, from what it seems like Uber Steering X Arc, yeah,
 I feel like that one's really hard
 but also I bet if you're really tanky
 and you have 90% max fire, it's probably not that bad.
 It's probably kind of easy.
 And so...
 Yeah, I don't know.
 I also think searing Exarch is a really good fight too.
 Easy, easy, easy...
 Uh, it was this one right?
 Yeah yeah I wonder if I need to go max life on the minions now.
 No, I'm not going to do it right now.
 Uber Maven's the hardest?
 Yeah, I never did that one.
 Okay here we go.
 Alright here we go. Let's summon them.
 Oh they're really low health.
 They're gonna keep dying over and over.
 Oh yeah,
 I have 16 of them. You see that? That summons a lot of fucking skeletons.
 So when we can, we're going to upgrade and use those all the time. That should be good. so What's my favorite minion build?
 I don't know.
 I'd really have to think about that.
 I wonder when I'm going to use Anime Guardian.
 Because Anime Guardian
 can be really good.
 I'm probably not going to use that
 until maps, most likely.
 Yeah, because like... I feel
 like Animate Guardian is really
 good with a lot of investment.
 It's probably not that good without the investment though.
 Alright! good without the investment though. Early Guardian dies
 quick? Yeah, that's what I was thinking right?
 Because it scales off of armor
 so why even really do it?
 It's just an aura bot? Yeah, pretty much actually you're right. okay
 care about that
 jesus look at all these fucking skills i need to upgrade It scales off gem level?
 Um, I mean like
 minion skills do have
 a huge component of gem level to them.
 Like having gem level for minion skills is probably, at least
 it used to be. I'm not sure if it still is.
 It could have changed. But back in the day
 whenever I would play,
 that was really important.
 Okay, here we go we're gonna use all we're going to bring in everybody Jesus fucking destroyed Fucking destroyed. Oh my god. That was easy. Great!
 I don't think i can get the golem yet
 ... the golem yet
 nerf minions yeah i know it's great right You can?
 Really? Already?
 Okay, well I'll check.
 Oh fuck, I forgot to get my shipment.
 Okay, next time we go to... We get to a waypoint,
 we're gonna stop and we'll get everything.
 Easy. breaking the seal turn him okay Okay Yeah, having a golem is gonna be huge what the fuck oh it's this way
 which class you start as a witch and then you go to necromancer Golem's gonna be huge Golem, like you guys might not
 Understand bro Like this golem is going to change
 my life.
 But
 you'll see
 what's this here? That's a new item i don't remember seeing that before stone golem no no we're gonna go uh carrying goal 100
 like carrion glom does the most damage and it also buffs my other minions.
 I think this is the right way, i don't know Hmm.
 What we got? Yeah, we only got a few more until we get to the golem.
 Oh it's this bitch.
 Alright... Big numbers.
 Annihilate. annihilated fucking annihilated
 oh my god.
 That was a boss? It was.
 That boss actually is really hard for minion builds.
 The reason why is that the beam does a lot of damage.
 Like, the beam is meant to be avoided.
 Oh I'm at seven zombies now too
 and keep in mind that's the low low health uh
 skeletons or a low damage skeletons.
 Okay.
 Alright let's go back to our
 area.
 Okay here we go.
 This is the big money situation!
 You're ready?
 Alright.
 Trade disruptions at what so We're not going to send out another one right now.
 What we're going to do instead is we're going to look and make sure that we have...
 We're going to try to recruit some new people.
 So, town improvements. Let's's do this let's recruit again and then we're gonna go town recruitment
 and i'll we're gonna we're gonna re-roll it's's $120 to re-roll, big dick.
 Ooh this is number two ship! All right we're going to re-roll again.
 Damn!
 I'm not gonna do any more yet.
 Let me see if i can get a smelter now. Okay, so we go over to here. Smelting. Smelting
 Oriachalcum or Crimson Ore.
 Okay, let's see. Can I have them
 smelting and shipping? Uh...
 Do I want to have them doing that now? Mining?
 I guess it's really just this person, because
 he is the only person I have that's smelting
 So let's go ahead and assign this person right now
 And they can start smelting
 And then we'll go ahead
 and cancel that Okay okay that's good and then just so we can get something
 like some work being done and then farming all that's good crim Crimson Iron, this is good.
 Okay.
 How hard
 is gold to come by? It's very easy
 to come by.
 Two Maxillom Miners can mine petrified amber.
 Okay, um... How much do I have?
 I'm gonna buy this now.
 Okay so now I'm level 3.
 Well apparently they can do any job.
 This is what somebody just said...
 Two plots? Oh wow!
 Oh shit!
 Pump cans
 and we also gonna get
 more corn. Nice nice okay so for corn we're going to put mr
 corn right here
 and then we're gonna do for pumpkins.
 This is just a level one miner, so we might as well put him over there.
 This guy's dumb as hell.
 We've got to get everybody working.
 And then we'll go ahead and do Treasury Gold, add...
 I'm gonna add all the money into the Treasury.
 And...
 Let's see here.
 Shipping?
 I feel like... I feel like we really don't have a lot.
 Okay. We really don't have a lot. It's not even a lot of corn, like I...
 I guess we might as well just send them out right?
 I mean we might as well because send them out, right? I mean we might as well.
 Because we got a lot of corn getting processed anyway so let's just
 go ahead and send this out and we'll send
 out maybe a little bit
 of this, maybe a little bit of that. Maybe like right there.
 I'm feeling like
 right there, that should be good.
 Okay and then we're gonna do
 uh...this is
 We're going to finish up the corn on here.
 Okay, good.
 We'll go back.
 Oh yeah! Let me get the Golem too.
 Act 3...
 What's wrong with Act 4?
 Core and Entrepreneur in the making?
 Yeah.
 Okay. Quorn entrepreneur in the making? Yeah. Okay...
 You guys about to see what's gonna happen when I get this golem, it's going to be fucking crazy.
 Spell echo on, Multistrike,
 Greater Projectiles, Unleash, Hexblowne, Bonechill...
 I feel like all these suck right?
 Oh this one could be good.
 Multi-strike?
 Nah, nah, let's go with multi-strike.
 Yeah, let's get that.
 Carrion Golemlem where is it
 perfect
 both strikes rp yeah no doubt all right down.
 Alright.
 See, look what it does, right?
 Golems deal 5% more damage. Golems grant 5- fifteen percent physical damage for non-golem minions
 you see like that's a lot of fucking damage on everything I'll hold on to this but I'm probably not going to use it.
 Is that green or blue? It's red, okay good.
 Alright.
 Golems and
 corn? Big moves? Yeah, I'm
 making decisions here.
 Okay, so
 what am I not using here
 i don't really use desecrate a lot i'm going to go ahead and get rid of this i'm going to just put
 the woman actually i'm gonna keep uh i'll keep that screen and there's my golem right
 there you see him
 watch what he does
 he's a crazy bitch.
 He jumps in there immediately, bro.
 Like...
 He is ten toes down.
 You see that?
 And whenever I get the second golem, it gives me damage reduction.
 Look at that the out of here
 i'm gonna just try and see if i get two good mana flasks maximum charges
 recovery curses.
 I'm gonna just go with this.
 I feel like
 I actually don't really need to...
 You know what? I'm not even gonna do that, because
 the one I have now gives me main recovery
 and, like, main immunity, which makes it good.
 See that golem in there doing work? Watch this.
 That's how it's done
 add feeding frenzy adds massive damage all your minions have just one. Really? So if I get
 Feeding Frenzy,
 it'll do damage...
 Okay.
 How am I going to
 fit that in?
 Like there...
 It- it-
 I know I can.
 I'm just thinking of like what the best decision is
 In order to make that happen
 Okay so
 I do Golem Feeding Frenzy
 Because I feel like Summon Raging Spirit is, like,
 not that important. And I can take
 Summon Raging Spirit out and I can replace
 that with this...
 I could put Flesh Off of minion support because sun raging spirit isn't very important for me.
 Yeah, yeah that's what I'm thinking. So I take this and then I go to here
 And then I get...
 Where the fuck is it?
 Hang on.
 I lost it. Oh, fuck.
 Feeding frenzy!
 Okay, minion damage...
 Okay so we're gonna replace flesh offering and put that in there Okay, minion damage.
 So we're going to replace Flesh Offering and put that in there.
 And then...
 It's too bad this is not a red.
 If this was a red I could go and take take this desecrate and put it somewhere else.
 But... That's a good point.
 This guy is telling me what to do he's actually right though
 so now i got the golem with minion damage and feeding frenzy
 he's hungry as a motherfucker, man. I wonder if multi-strike is better than melee foos? Yeah, I think.
 I guess probably not.
 I need one name.
 I don't know.
 At least a good boost. I don't know. Let me stick with this.
 Okay, so now we are in a completely different universe.
 Okay. universe. We are in the
 universe of
 The Golem,
 and we have... What else do we have? We have the golem. I feel like I'm missing one.
 My minion, my oras right, my oras.
 Verity, skitterbots. There now I am feeling good. I am feeling cute now.
 Okay were good. I'm feeling cute now.
 Okay we're good. The golem burfs? Yeah.
 No actually played a build...
 It was really funny like
 I played a build
 that was carrying golems
 like the league it got nerfed
 or the league before it got nerfed. Or the league before it got nerfed.
 And I remember I beat Sirrus...
 Like with like blues and I was just like
 I just quit the game i could get it so easy
 it was insane
 heist is going It was insane. Highest of golems?
 Yeah, I remember
 I couldn't even take damage.
 Like,
 I would only like
 get one shot.
 That was it.
 Damn. Damn, I cleared that shit fast. We'll lose damage. nothing bro like ain't nothing dead so fast all right good Alright, good.
 Imagine the golem- I told you Golems fucking crazy right? Alright All right, there's a boss.
 I could use... Make sure I put some bodies down.
 Here we go, watch this damage.
 Instantly fucking done. I will be reborn much sooner than you think.
 You can't win over me with your own hands,
 or the power of a man.
 I'll be reborn! all right here we go um Tch. Instant!
 Fucking instant! Oh my god!
 Where's he at? I'm challenging you, on your own selfish will.
 Nightmare is the true end of it all.
 Why... are you so in love with death? That was pretty easy.
 Yeah, that went pretty well.
 Look at that!
 Holy shit! He got pants right? Yeah bro he got destroyed
 Okay Pantret? Yeah, bro. He got destroyed.
 Okay.
 Now we have that this is the last act until Kitava
 who's the last boss.
 Make sure I talk to all of them.
 I forgot if there was something I needed to talk to him for?
 It looks like vampireire Survivors now.
 No, no, no.
 Like you think that?
 You didn't see the last build.
 Like the last time I went hard on this game
 it basically was Vampire Survivors.
 And by it basically was i mean it literally fucking was like one for one
 find a spirit do i do this blind I need to do deseret spirit
 i think i do right
 yeah let me go tell me just gonna do it Where the fuck is this bitch?
 I need to get Convoke at some point too. Maybe it's down this way,
 I feel like one of those stupid ass side quests is probably over on this direction.
 See now we're farming.
 Oh, I gotta buy another golem.
 Because I gotta have it ready, you know?
 So, we're thinking um we're thinking stone golem right i'm feeling like stone golem Can I stop this one?
 Yeah, I'm real close to it.
 Chaos! Chaos? A corn golem?
 That'd be good. Maybe I can get one of those at my base
 That's not him, right? Somebody else.
 I might try to augment my...
 Fuck this is not it?
 Okay. I gotta go somewhere else.
 Am I about to
 beat the game in one sitting? I did do that once.
 I streamed for 20 hours straight playing this game.
 Uh, am I gonna do that today?
 No. Uh, however,
 I'm gonna play. Uh, you know, I-I don't
 know how hard I'm gonna go on this league. I'm not really sure.
 Like, I... Tomorrow, like, I'm not
 sure... I guess I should probably say this, right?
 So tomorrow, I might
 actually...
 Um...
 I might not stream until later on in the day because s fan and i might do irl at a convention
 tomorrow uh i don't know if i'm gonna go or not i'm gonna pretty much like i'm usually
 the kind of guy like i don't like to make commitments
 because it stresses me out
 and then I end up like everything about it
 ends up being bad.
 But like, I'm hoping that
 I'll be in the right frame of mind
 to go tomorrow
 And when I do... Wait wait where the is it then Level 2. As Fenn said, you're going? Yeah that doesn't mean I'm going though.
 Uh but yeah...
 What a dream con- yeah some shit like that
 Like I'm not sure exactly what it is
 But yeah something like that and uh
 yeah I just, I'm not really a big
 I'm like
 I'm really really like I'm allergic to
 commitments
 and so I don't, I don't like I'm allergic to commitments.
 And so, I don't like having to do that because it stresses me out a lot
 But if i'm feeling up for it, I'll go to that tomorrow
 but we will see what happens I'll go to that tomorrow.
 But we'll see what happens.
 But like there's that, that's going on and then there's also like...
 That's a floor link, I don't, that's a four link.
 I don't think I need a four link right now.
 You're stressing already?
 Yeah, I know because I just...I'm not
 I'm a weird guy right what can I say
 Okay Okay Okay. It's not this way, we'll go the other one.
 But yeah anyway so if I do end up doing that
 I'm gonna stream with him during the day
 and then at night I will be able to get a little bit of so if i do end up doing that, I'm gonna stream with him during the day
 and then at night I'll probably come back and be streaming hang out for a
 couple hours you know maybe play a little bit more of this
 uh you know the usual. Right?
 Jesus man... I just do so much fucking damage it's amazing. Jesus
 There it is.
 Nice!
 Okay, we're done.
 I'm gonna go turn this back in and we're gonna go buy the other goal once
 i felt you've done yourself proud okay
 and now we're looking at the other golem. What do you guys think? Do you guys think chaos golem?
 Let me see what they give.
 It's not on here, I thought where the fuck do we buy it
 like is it i guess it must be the other
 vendor Yes.
 Carrion, Lightning Golem...
 Stone Golem is Life Regen. Almost cracked my...
 I'm feeling like Chaos Golem is the obvious decision, guys.
 I'm going to be real.
 Like, I feel like Chaos Golem's the obvious call.
 Somebody else says use Stone Gulp?
 Okay, all right.
 I'm going to buy both.
 That's what I do. I'll buy both
 and I'm going to offhand level
 okay it looks like we're going to use stone golem because I don't have a space for the other one.
 Uh...
 Man.
 I'm really running out of
 space.
 Like... I'm really running out of space.
 Like...
 I might just summon two carrying golems.
 Wait, I- Do, I need four-link gloves.
 Yeah, I got gray gloves.
 It's not so good!
 You level up gems in this game? Yeah yeah you do. It's not so good.
 You level up gems in this game? Yeah, yeah you do.
 Alright let's get this done
 Dual carrion is also a deal I actually don't want to have dual
 carrying i want to have the life region like 45 life a second it's fucking crazy
 look at this shit bro like Just delete the whole fucking screen.
 We gotta give them move speed so they can kill these mobs faster though.
 I hate these dick suckers man by the way I think our golden commander might be a waste of your passives in this case.
 You only get a bit of defense,
 a lot of points invested.
 Yeah, but I want to have another minion.
 And also my clear is so
 good that
 I don't think it really matters
 and after i get the the carrying golem the second one the goalmancer and i
 think you could be right by the way way. I also think that I'm over-investing
 but that's the reason why
 I'm doing it right now when
 I feel like I'm kind of ahead
 of the difficulty curve in the game
 so that way I can invest in it early and
 I don't need to worry. That's the reason why I want to do it
 Now maybe that's a bad call or like, a bad mindset but like that's the logic
 that I'm using, right?
 Is this build good for bosses? Yeah, minion builds are really good for bosses.
 Um...
 There are some cases where they can be problematic and annoying, but in a general sense I think
 they're extremely good for bosses. which is gaming yeah but we're big dick in it man
 which guide is this i'm'm using Gazi's Doom Answer Guide.
 Like, I'm not one for wanting it but for the...
 I-I'm basically like
 I looked at kind of what he was doing, and I was like
 yeah, this seems like a good idea.
 And I took his...
 I'm using his talent tree.
 Right?
 And you can just look it up on YouTube.
 And you'll see look it up on YouTube. And, like,
 you'll see the same video I did.
 He does a lot of minion...
 You know what?
 I was talking to Zuzerain. I think he's gonna do this.
 He's like...
 Dude, I feel like the spectacle of explaining how PoE crafts happen
 would actually be entertaining even to people that don't play PoE
 because of how ridiculous it is.
 I wonder if that's true?
 ... I'm going to have to do this again. Really? Yeah, maybe it's not communicated in a way that's uh that's that's understandable by
 uh like an average person it's like yeah i don't know how to do that the right way
 but i think if you could do that that could be like a really good free farm for video content
 and he's getting convoked
 that way i can make the minions come to me me
 you guys see my bro this shit's going fast now. I think i'm gonna get the minion damage leech.
 Yeah, I feel like damage Leech for minions would be really good.
 Okay, what's this? Cold Res... I don't really need resistances so
 I guess we're just gonna go with fuck. I mean
 Let's do lightning since I already have lightning
 Anything good? Cold and lightning?
 That's pretty good, yeah I'm gonna stick with that.
 Remember unlike these sometimes stick with that
 my resistances are oh fire is at 48. oh wow i should have read that.
 I should've got the... You can't win them all, guys guys that's the way it is
 craft bench dude he's not gonna kill me Yeah, it'll be fine.
 You don't need to have your resistance capped like this point in the game.
 Like I mean realistically you don't...
 Like, I've done
 maps without having my resistances
 capped. Now, is it fun?
 No. But it's possible, right?
 So it's not a big deal.
 Okay. It's not hardcore anyways? Yeah, true.
 No reason to stress out. Yeah, even the elites die fast. Where the hell do I need to go?
 Can I go this way?
 No, I can't go over there.
 Uh...
 I think it's this way, right? No, it's not.
 ARPGs are so dog shit! You think
 so? I know there is a lot of people that
 are like looking for me to play other games
 For me, like now, I feel like
 I'm in a pretty good situation where
 I'm playing a lot of games right now and
 I'm pretty happy about it.
 I'll be honest,
 I think things are going pretty well. You know, I'll be honest. I think things are going pretty well.
 You know, I've been streaming different games, been looking at other random shit...
 It's actually kind of surprising to see how well a lot of the content's been doing, like
 on YouTube especially. Oh negative resistances just what I need
 Those are all fireballs too.
 Fun to play, very boring to watch? I think you're right.
 I think ARPGs are boring to watch.
 Too bad. In a way, I actually think Diablo is more watchable than PoE because Diablo is so simple.
 So it's easy to understand what's going on. oh yeah I don't know.
 Gabbo's better in every way? You think so think so yeah i don't know about that
 i mean yahoo is fine it's a nice game but you know
 you know You know... You know.
 It's not like it's bad, that expansion bro,
 let's talk about that.
 That expansion announcement jesus man like you know what i felt like you know what i bet they
 felt like it was like you know in school whenever you got like the real dumb kid
 that like doesn't know how to do math and he's got to like explain something
 he's like real stupid like he's too he don't even know how to speak not talk right and uh
 he goes up there and he's like doing his presentation he's like like, oh, duh, duh, duh,
 page three! Oh wait I wasn't supposed to read
 that, oh duh...
 And it's like the teacher everybody just laughing at him
 calling him stupid. You know everything
 like that even a teachers is calling him a loser.
 And then the next thing is right after that there's somebody
 that knows what they're talking about and they're smart
 and they do their presentation after that.
 That's the way I feel like happened with Dyke that day.
 It was depressing, man.
 Why does it always keep giving me upgrades
 with these...
 I should have gotten a Hall of Life Blast. That's actually kinda good.
 Now he's in President? Yeah.
 Riveted Gloves, do I want those?
 Armor and energy shield.
 I think I'm actually going to try to pick those up.
 Yeah, that's actually... That could be good.
 If I could get...
 Do I have a chromatic? I'm gonna chromatic this right now.
 Watch this. One, two, three.
 I think I can actually work with that.
 Yeah. Yeah, I can work with that. yeah
 yeah i can work with that feeding frenzy minion damage carrying golem with calling strike and then i replace this with something else
 yeah that's actually big good. Oh!
 Actually you know what? Cool.
 Actually, you know what? No no it's red that's right.
 Use Black Market from the mechanic. It's OP for rings and shields shields is that the one that gives you kalandra rings or is that something else one more one more we get double double golems it's gamba oh okay
 is it like uh what's her fucking name guinen i think winem was the gamble one yeah okay Jesus.
 I'm thinking like what yellow one could we use? What green one
 could we use besides Culling Strike because I don't really need Culling Strike again. faster attacks oh that's a good one
 yeah especially on carrying guns one
 yeah especially on carrying golem that would be crazy am i still in two uh two specters
 yeah Yeah. Nope! Nope.
 They fucking with the tree!
 Okay, we're good.
 I didn't know they were going to spawn there.
 That's a lot of minions?
 Yeah, it is.
 Well, I did the W skeletons there which helps out.
 That's this way.
 You have an army? Yeah, I know. Go back and turn all these in.
 Okay... Okay.
 Just get granite, right?
 I mean, I feel like we just get granite.
 Yeah...
 Oh bro wait is this it?
 Oh my god.
 That's the golem right there, okay.
 So...
 God damn!
 Look at that!
 That's a pretty good one. i'm just trying to think what i should do so It's so...
 There's poison, momentum, pierce.
 Watcher, simply. This could be Archer. Super Cymbalee.
 This could be it, right?
 Faster attacks.
 Accuracy...
 I'm good now, right? Yeah. not Impale?
 Oh, but it's not an attack skill. Can I even do faster attacks?
 Like... Will that even work?
 Because it's not an attack skill.
 ... so The worst of minions?
 I also lose the melee splash too though.
 What do you guys think? Is Impale...
 what does Impale even do?
 ... I feel like impale kinda sucks. I just don't know what to do.
 Haste?
 I don't have haste.
 Okay, let's see what we can do here... I don't know, like... hmm Use hatred? I can't.
 I need to vol hatred.
 It says it supports attack skills,
 so it would be unintuitive that
 oh man i'm just trying to think about this.
 It's like, I'm gonna lose melee splash that's really big.
 Now there is a third option where I could try to re-roll it again.
 Like, I can try and re-roll it again and see if I get another color.
 I'm gonna do it! Okay. Fucking perfect.
 Wait a second...
 Oh no, I don't have an alchemy orb for it.
 Okay we're gonna use...
 Fire Resist.
 Wow! Wow.
 We could also use multi-strike for this, but we're not going to. probably put this over here wall try awesome on zombies. Yeah, I don't know which one is the best.
 I really don't.
 But I feel like we're in a very good situation, because now...
 Look look look.
 Now we have double golem.
 Holy shit.
 Oh my god, we have double golem
 We have two specters
 Uh...we have the skeletons We got three yet? No.
 Uh, we have the skeletons...
 Oh my god!
 We are out of control
 We're totally, we're totally out of control boys. Switch to multi if needed?
 Yeah I can always just use two carrying golems
 and also like watch how my health is gonna recover.
 Like, if it happens.
 Like, next time I take damage
 I'm gonna get health back real quick.
 I'll try I take damage, I'm going to get health back real quick. I'll try and take damage
 so you guys can see it.
 Look at that.
 Look at that look at that look at that recovery that is insane fucking recovering
 obviously going the wrong way.
 I'm not even sure the golem is like really that great.
 I might even move over to...
 Move over to using another carrying golem
 because carrying golems are so aggressive and strong,
 but against bosses, the stone Because carrying golems are so aggressive and strong.
 But against bosses, the stone golems will do really well. Okay. so
 specters yeah the carrion buff doesn't stack Spectres? Yeah.
 The carrion buff doesn't stack?
 Yeah, I know that.
 That's not useful to me.
 Yeah don't worry. I know that.
 Is this the new league?
 Yeah it is.
 Oh!. The golem itself slaps a minion setup? Yeah, I'm a big fan of golems.
 I think they're really strong because it's almost impossible for golems to die
 and also the carrying golems to die. And also, the carrying
 golems do so much fucking damage.
 Even with all the nerfs,
 they still do a lot of damage.
 Because all of their abilities are really strong
 for...
 What they can do is really good in this game,
 right? So they can do direct damage,
 they can also do spread damage,
 and they can jump in and do a lee uh like i think that's what makes them really good okay
 i'll build my running i'm doing minion
 build and this should also I'm doing minion build.
 And this should also really help me out a lot too, because I'm going to do minion defense
 and I'm going to do minion 1% life each.
 And this way my minions are not
 going to die.
 Because I feel like what could very easily happen is, like......I could kind of-
 I can get behind on the scaling and then my minions could start getting killed
 does it seem we're trying i think it is um i think this game's great
 it's a lot of investment though so like if you're not ready to invest a lot of time into it
 You're probably not going to get a lot out of it Jesus.
 96 max life at level 36. what the fuck that's crazy
 god damn Goddamn.
 I don't have to play on PS5 all day, really?
 Yeah it's just too bad right?
 I mean PoE is a...
 It's a PC-first game,
 but it definitely sucks if you can't play the game. I mean, it's not really even
 a question. Obviously sucks.
 ... Are those ghost minions and microtransactions?
 No.
 You can get... I think you can get micro transactions for the Spectres maybe?
 I don't know. But um, I don't have one.
 Yeah, I have a lot of the microtransactions but not all of them.
 And I usually like...
 I'll buy them whenever it gets to level 95 on a character and it's like okay
 now my character is killing shaper
 like he should probably look good you know but uh look good doing
 it but otherwise like yeah i don't really think about it a whole lot Juggernaut.
 Where are you going, juggernaut? Yeah I was! I changed my mind
 yeah look at this damage man.
 This is insane!
 Alright let's do it. Let's not just leave, shall we?
 Jesus. Alright here we go. Got him. got him
 we're gone Oh man.
 Oh man.
 This is really, it's like good. It's just this great.
 Man he's doing selling a lot of ads. Oops.
 I thought I could heal through it. Does that give you a stacking fire rez debuff? Because I feel like I would have had...
 Is that second death? It is.
 There we go. See, that's what was supposed to happen right there. Okay.
 Exposure I think? that's what makes sense because
 i used my flask and my health started going down faster i was like what the
 thought It's Katava.
 Alright, let's go.
 Shut up asshole! Shut the fuck up!
 Someone's reaching for me... up
 let's keep going it's all the big man now yeah i know Yeah, I know.
 Jesus! What the fuck was that?
 You know what keeps killing me?
 Fire damage. Yeah, remember when I said? Like I wouldn't need it. That's 48, man. okay screen shake enabled yeah i know okay so uh it can you see if it's unlocked Uh, it...
 Can you see if it's unlocked?
 S-Man can you see if it's unlock- I think I locked the door. I'm not sure.
 You just walked in.
 Okay. You just walked in.
 This time I'm locked. Alright, you can go now, bro. This is unlocked. so okay Where are you on the air? Oh fuck, I haven't DM'd that.
 He didn't ring me up did he?
 Yeah yeah Let me know what's happening.
 So, they're asking you to make a new second channel.
 You want me to make another one? Like, a third channel?
 Yeah. Why's that?
 Uh... they just- for an experiment.
 Okay, just to see what happens? Let's go dude.
 Fuck man. I've been playing this new league for a while. It's been good!
 How long has it been out?
 Since like 3
 The way you said that, I thought it was before today
 Yeah yeah no, it's been all day though like i've been streaming for a bit
 yeah so we're gonna do that convention tomorrow like what's the plan uh i mean yeah
 i mean if you're on fort there's a ton of people here yeah i noticed that like
 i saw like all those guys uh at like ms house yesterday
 yeah those guys um yeah and then like rage is here kai's
 here oh shit um apparently we're here okay the why is it that big of a deal
 dreamcon i uh apparently i mean i tried to go last year and then when I returned here last year I couldn't get a
 badge where they would let me stream.
 So that's why I wouldn't go or that's why I didn't go but that's why I asked like
 I asked like a few months ago
 if people wanted to go because
 this is a convention in Austin.
 We used to do this all the time when there was a convention in Austin.
 Like, everybody would show up
 for whatever reason.
 We did Dreamhack 2018 and
 this is kind of the same thing.
 What the fuck?
 Yeah I remember that.
 Back then it was like Shroud was there or Summit was there
 We watched Shroud play, remember that?
 What the fuck?
 This is crazy.
 Yeah, I had no idea.
 What the fuck?
 Yeah, I'm... Like, I'm not really much of a committer, right?
 But my perspective is tomorrow if I wake up and I'm good to go,
 I'm down to go.
 Yeah.
 At least go over there for a while.
 The greatest commitment Asim has ever made.
 Yeah.
 Hey, hey, it is what it is,
 right?
 Hey,
 yeah.
 But yeah,
 no,
 I'm a...
 That's crazy.
 There's a lot of
 fucking people over there
 then.
 What the fuck?
 Like,
 I bet
 that's gonna be a zoo then.
 Holy fuck!
 Yeah apparently it's like uh...
 It's literally like 40k view or something?
 That sign up to the kind of...
 Evo was 60k. Oh really? Yeah but I was a way bigger though right? Where was that?
 It was in the biggest convention center.
 Okay, that's probably bigger than Austin now.
 Yeah but like Evo last year was 40, so EVO grew 50%.
 Which is crazy.
 There's gonna be a tecton one today...
 Oh! There were some shit today too? Yeah. be like a like tecton one today which we're working so oh there was some
 today too yeah yeah so it started today
 so start of the day um i mean it's a convention right
 like it's we've been to 100 conventions conventions and they're not all the same.
 But uh like you kind of know what your gonna get.
 It's fun right?
 Yeah.
 No I haven't been to a convention.
 The last one that I went to was I went to that anime convention with like Emmy and tectonin them like that was
 That was crazy bro. Like they had some weird shit there
 Yeah This isn't anything Yeah, that's what I thought this was. That's right, yeah.
 Yeah, I thought this was an anime thing.
 Apparently it's like...
 It's anime and more?
 Yeah, it's really descriptive. Yeah's like i wouldn't expect to like to see like all the w
 community like showing up for this like what the fuck yeah there's like fighting game stuff
 here too yeah what the that's nuts's nuts. Yeah. Dude fighting games...
 They've got such a great community. How is EVO?
 There's nothing like it. It's just by far.
 Because the barrier of entry is so low.
 As far as being able to watch it
 like it's it's the best spectator sport uh and also like you don't really have part of the problem though, though, as far as like the game being big
 and people playing a lot of fighting games,
 I think fighting games are
 literally less popular because you
 don't have teammates to blame when you lose
 i had this realization like well i'm comparing this to starcraft yeah and like in starcraft that's the case too it's the same thing no that's actually probably true what
 the yeah because like people don't like
 the pressure of it being a 1v1 right because it's like i can't
 I can't fuck around wow right that Right. That's true, what the fuck?
 Which is why Riot's fighting game
 is probably gonna do really well because you have a teammate. Oh, the 2v2
 Yeah exactly. So now your duo is through. Bro this dude
 sucks man like god bro
 I would've won but you know how it is.
 Report my duo.
 Report my duo, please.
 Yeah, report this guy.
 He's throwing.
 Exactly.
 No, I don't know.
 Like, I'm actually really kind of curious then.
 So are Ludwig and Hassan actually here?
 Like y'all should know in chat like for sure
 because I don't even believe that.
 I think so.
 There's no fucking way.
 Dan said they were there.
 What the fuck?
 Didn't Hassan stream fuck? I think so.
 Didn't Hassan scream today?
 No, no,
 he's coming tomorrow.
 Oh, okay.
 Yeah, Hassan
 was going tomorrow.
 I don't know
 if Ludwig is here now.
 Goddamn.
 Yeah.
 Hassan's playing basketball?
 What the fuck, man?
 Son said-
 Did it say you have to catch a flight?
 Okay, then yeah, yeah.
 I guess that's probably what it is.
 Yeah, they're not streaming basketball again.
 Oh my god.
 Yeah.
 He's going with his son?
 Holy fuck.
 God damn. Like there's a- that's a lot going on!
 Holy fucking shit.
 Wow.
 That's like this is probably one of the biggest conventions in, in terms of like people
 being there for a while.
 Well I always
 told people
 that do the conventions
 and put them on
 is that if you do
 a convention
 in Austin
 then
 you will get streamers to go. Yeah, because there's a lot of there's lots
 There's a lot of streamers here
 yeah
 So like if you do want an awesome people will go cuz you know people who like coming Austin right? Yeah
 Yeah
 If you do it in Dallas
 the problem with Dallas is that people who live in Austin are too lazy to go
 to Dallas. It's a combination of being too lazy.
 It's a combination of like
 it's barely too far away
 to go for like a day.
 Dallas is a bit away right?
 Yeah so it's like 3 hours away
 4 hours away
 plus
 on top of that it's
 it's too it's too close to fly and too far to have a comfortable drive
 yeah yeah because like if it was like san antonio
 it's like that weird limbo space in between.
 We'd go to San Antonio every day.
 It's like a hunter dead zone.
 Yeah, literally.
 It's literally a dead zone.
 Yeah?
 Yeah, like if it was Oklahoma or something,
 I'd be fine.
 I'd just fly over there.
 But the problem is
 Dallas' infrastructure
 is way better
 and they have
 way better facilities.
 Right, right.
 And Austin is kind of ass.
 From what I heard is like kind of ass. Like, from what I heard it's like the
 as I've heard this from other people
 at convention they were like
 Dallas Convention Centers are just way better
 Internet, everything,
 the layout,
 the city itself,
 like there's
 way more to do
 for people
 who just enjoy
 Dallas
 when they
 enjoy Austin.
 Yeah.
 But uh,
 for streamers
 specifically,
 Austin is better
 because...
 Austin has got
 a lot going on.
 Yeah, it's weird.
 But that's...
 If we weren't?
 Yeah.
 Oh yeah, also the airport.
 Yeah.
 Tells everything.
 Everything's from there.
 From that perspective.
 That is nuts, man.
 Yeah, I still...
 I just can't believe there's that
 many people being there. Holy fuck.
 Like, I wonder what it's gonna
 be like going up there. Do we know anybody else
 that's going? Like who are you going with tomorrow besides
 them? Is it just like yeah because i asked
 because i asked months ago who wants a badge because i'm gonna start working on this now
 but i think other people are going because they got lucky with my second badges maybe
 but yeah i mean it was just gonna be us now finn wasn't a cameraman yeah but but here's the thing finn says he can only camera for like three hours
 okay because hip's bothering him yeah so i'm like maybe we maybe just do it old school and just just
 just walk around just walk around with the with carrying ourselves yeah or maybe we'll have finn
 for a bit and then if I feel like three hours
 Like, I'm not trying to be there all day
 Right?
 So, like
 Yeah
 I'm down to go there
 For a few hours
 But, like
 I don't want to fuck around
 Do that all day
 Like
 I'll probably go there
 Get some food
 And then probably go back
 Yeah, I mean
 That's what I was thinking
 Yeah, man I was thinking's what I'm thinking.
 Yeah but I was thinking like my original plan
 was maybe four or five hours.
 Yeah yeah that's what I wanted to know.
 Cause normally that's what we used to do.
 Yeah at that point where it's dinner
 we'd probably get chicken
 Yeah we'd get chicken. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
 We get food and then-
 And then just fucking peace out?
 Yeah.
 And chill?
 Usually some...
 Back then usually somebody else would stream.
 We'd still hangout.
 Yeah, yeah.
 But now our streamers are...
 Now our streamers
 are lazy.
 They don't stream anymore.
 It's crazy, man.
 It really is.
 Like I stream a lot
 still but a lot of
 people they
 you know
 they're just kind
 of clock in
 you know
 that's the way it is yeah no i'm being a
 little bit facetious right yeah yeah and then it was funny but but yeah yeah we still we still
 stream a lot i do at least i mean you They stream all the fucking time.
 Yeah, I stream too much maybe.
 Yeah that's probably why.
 Cause I need to lock down a little bit.
 Are you deser- um
 they added like a whole new area.
 Damn, that's actually kind of good.
 They added this whole new area into it where it's like...
 It's like Age of Empires, or a town builder.
 And you can have them do stuff for you
 Like go out and buy
 and sell things for you
 There is a currency market
 in each one of these areas.
 So it's like a whole new hub?
 Yeah, yeah. It's like a personal player
 hub where there are different resources
 that they can farm and do for you.
 Like, it's actually kind of like a...
 It's a really, like...
 I think people might be, like...
 They're not because, like, it's actually today
 they got the highest player peak that they've ever had on Steam.
 So, like,
 it's clearly not
 that people are downplaying it
 but
 uh
 it's extremely popular
 and uh
 Yeah, Warlords is great
 for the first month.
 Yeah, exactly right.
 Yeah, there it is. Well this this is a huge update it's right yeah there it is well this this is a
 huge update it's a massive update crazy update no i think uh that's funny
 it literally is like wow gearists though yeah yeah i know what it is and
 like that's the thing but to be fair well here's here's a good thing
 right it's like allow garrison like i think that poe should try this to see how players respond
 to it going into poe too, right? Because like that way
 because it's like this is the good thing about having leagues
 for games where it's like you go
 into it knowing that it's gonna
 go away. So like if this comes out
 and the players don't really respond very well.
 Yeah, it's not going to go into the core league
 And then that's it. It's done.
 So another point is people
 play PoE very differently than they
 play WoW. Like, WoW's
 entire core gameplay
 is centered around
 from the beginning. 40 man raids,man groups right we're doing yeah a rapid
 basement this is really not it's not a group game it's not really a group game so like it's
 not it's not super social so having something like a garrison is not bad.
 Whereas in WoW, whenever you had
 garrisons, it took the capital city and
 individualized it.
 Yeah, everybody has their own
 hideout.
 It's your own little player
 housing area and you put all your shit there
 and everything and so
 yeah, like
 I don't know. Like,
 I'm feeling like this...
 It's crazy to me
 to see how
 hard they work
 to try to make
 their game good.
 It really is.
 It's incredible.
 Yeah.
 I think, like, uh... I think, I think really is it's incredible yeah i think like uh
 i think i think poe is one of them that's like yeah
 you can reliably like okay they're gonna at least they want to constantly put out
 like updates where whether it's a good league or not a good league it'll at
 least feel like they tried to make it a bit what do you think about uh about the season of discovery
 like phase four you play because i thought he you played a little bit right i wanted to so
 i thought my initial reaction to season of discovery at blizzcon
 was I felt
 so out of place
 because everybody around me
 was losing their minds
 and I'm sitting here
 like
 mod check
 is anybody
 listening
 to what they're saying
 uh and then when I played it and I was like well listening to what they're saying.
 And then, you know,
 when I played it and I was like, well, I'll admit I had fun.
 Right? And then I talked to the devs and I was like, okay I think they... Okay.
 This sounds like there's some good direction here.
 But then everything they ended up doing...
 Everything they ended up doing was exactly what I was worried
 about, where it's like you're playing Retail Minus.
 Like, it's... I don't wanna...
 If I wanted to play Catacombs,
 I might go play Catacomblysm right it does feel like that
 so it's like i uh i do think there's a lot they could have done
 that was they could have done a lot more with less yeah And even stuff like giving everybody
 rent, right? Or
 taking off the cooldown for... Like this stuff that they
 accidentally changed on air that people were freaking out about
 Honestly half of those things
 were objectively good changes and half of them were like, what's the point?
 But the reason why they probably shouldn't change it
 is because now that you have Sod
 and now that you have Era
 I mean just let Era be what it is.
 Even though to argue
 that those aren't objectively good changes
 that they probably should have made
 five years ago
 would...
 I think it's insane.
 Yeah.
 Because that's what I said.
 Yeah.
 I mean they should have done that because that's the thing right? It's... Because that's what I said. Literally, those are the things
 I was like...
 That's the thing right?
 It's like now
 that like it's been defined
 it's like you should just
 stick with that
 and stay with that
 rather than fuck around
 but like
 I'm just hoping
 after this whole Season of Discovery thing
 They can just have a better version of it
 Because, like, I looked at, like
 Do you see the last boss in Molten Core?
 It's just a ball
 It's called the Molten Core
 Dude, I watched the video
 Are you kidding me, bro?
 I watched the video and I was like okay like i was waiting
 for like some kind of crazy mechanic that like people wouldn't be able to clear it for
 like a week yeah watch i'll show you guys this this was crazy stupid like was it a joke?
 Yeah. It's literally a ball bro like
 Fuck where'd it go?
 Watch Yeah, it's a video I saw. Why?
 Like, I thought this was like...
 It's literally just
 a ball!
 Like, I'm assuming that this is a joke
 and they were like Molten Core has no mechanics
 right?
 where you kill the Molten Core
 it's just evolving
 The Molten Core.
 It's dead.
 What?
 There was no McKennie!
 Organi-Bar! WHAT?! There's no mechanic. Organite bar!
 Wow!
 Let's go! Inga!
 Amazing.
 Yeah, um...
 You made the bubble. Yeah, um... There's so much that happens with Sod
 That I'm like who asked for this?
 Like daily quests?
 Who asks for daily quests like who asked for a daily quest
 it's just I
 mean, I
 Don't know. I'm very
 Really actually did want to place on at 60
 But I just don't have it in me to level like
 i'm sitting there a little 32. oh really yeah and i'm just like somebody paralleled me here
 hey 20 bucks somebody's yeah my account gets banned right yeah yeah i don't even care no i don't blame you
 like i would want a level but it's just like i just i'm lazy i got a million other games going
 on there's too many other games yeah there. Yeah, there's 20 other games.
 Yeah, there's a lot.
 It's like am I gonna really go and play this shit all the way over again?
 And it's also... Seeing this is like...
 It makes it more like now I'm not
 looking forward to it. Right?
 Because before, I was like, oh
 well maybe they're going to do this. But the moment that I saw
 they had difficulty modes on Molten Core, I was
 just like... Difficulty what you're why so this is a classic wow
 and here's the mark for what season discover should be yeah and they're like... there.
 Mm-hmm. It's, it, like the game is really good at its core and
 needs a little bit of tweaking around that, like just do,
 like they should have done like a Burning Crusade season
 discovery and
 just like
 Just make it in between Burning Crusade and vanilla, and it would've been fine.
 Yeah, they did too many changes for sure. Which is why I said that before
 Like at the beginning I think people really got on me
 because I was like you know
 Damn what's this annoying fucking sound in this game?
 What's this stupid ass fuck-
 Is this little bitch?
 Yeah it's him! i know it's him
 it's like some gnome doing train yeah they do like this stupid
 yeah basically yeah i can't even get away from
 like can i go over here i can't even go away from it. Can I go over here? I can't even go over there
 A goblin pet
 Who the fuck wants one of those
 I'm going to go over here, nobody's gonna be over here
 It's like a while. Somebody jump around.
 It is!
 It's annoying, bro.
 Like, yes!
 And it's like... The thing is, I know they're not doing it on purpose.
 It's just that's what the NPC does.
 Oh, man. This fucking stupid goblin
 I can... Oh my god.
 Wait, I literally
 oh my fucking
 I literally just- I can't get away from this
 shit, man. Like, there's another one over here.
 I'm gonna run all the way over here.
 I'll hide in a corner.
 Maybe this will stop him
 with that peacock over here.
 Okay.
 Yeah, that's better.
 So... Yeah. Yeah, I's better. So...
 Yeah.
 Uh, yeah I mean I feel like with Sea of Discovery...
 I mean also they- for Paladin?
 They made it play like a Wrath, more like a retail paladin
 than a classic paladin.
 So all the core
 classic paladins...
 You actually have
 button suppress?
 Well, I mean,
 we had it in Burning Crusade
 and it was perfect.
 Yeah, yeah.
 I know you liked that a lot.
 And a lot of the
 classic paladin players
 were like,
 this is it.
 Yes.
 Now there's some people
 like McConnell
 he's like a retail Paladin player
 like he prefers retail.
 Yeah, yeah.
 Maybe it was good for them
 but then there's a lot of people who are like, oh shit we have Divine Storm now.
 But then they took four phases to add in Seal Twisting.
 So they added in Seal Twisting finally and dude
 They literally patched it in and I had two devs message me, and they were like hey!
 Just letting you know.
 They're like thank God yes.
 But they put that in which is great
 and people are having fun with that,
 which is really great because like
 people were telling me now it's actually very
 fun but the problem is you have this
 things change a little bit maybe
 rotations, that's cool. The itemization has changed which is also cool
 because like if you're an rpg player and and you're like like for me it's like it gives
 you something to think about yes my brain just like like it's like oh yes like maybe i do this i'm immediately
 trying to like min max and go wait what if i got this item right that's actually very very
 intriguing to me but the problem is that's like the appeal of a game like this. Yeah, exactly. But here is what my issue is now. The way they itemize things in World of Warcraft really post-vanilla because as it's Carson Berninger said.
 Things start getting
 really heavily optimized.
 It happened in Naxx.
 It happened in Naxx.
 Yeah.
 Literally like...
 Naxx was just like
 main stat, best stat,
 second best stat,
 bonus stat.
 It was god tier.
 Yeah.
 If you had Tier 3 armor it was the prototypical S-tier armor for whatever spec it was designed for.
 Nothing could be better,
 the stats were so good.
 The paladin gear had five stats on it.
 It was literally stamina,
 ant, plus healing,
 spell crit, and mana and mana profile that's it
 insane
 it was amazing
 I feel like that's the way it is with retail
 I just
 could not give a fuck man like it's been
 like we play the same game since Legion
 there's been the same fucking game yeah
 like we'll play war within at launch
 like or but like whatever this I'm in life like we'll play war within a launch but of course
 but like we're not gonna i mean it'll
 never be it'll never be like the okay
 they're not going to be like burning
 crusade yeah tell you that
 it's nuts sick
 it was awesome man dude i wish they would do Burner Crusade era.
 I think they probably will.
 I think they're going to bring it back in like two years.
 I think
 it would be cool if they did a Burner Crusade era.
 Part of me... I say I wish they would
 but part of me hopes they don't
 Why's that? Cause then I'll play it
 That's true
 It's gonna fuck my life up all too well
 Yeah, yeah Dude, it's gonna be...
 It's crazy because so many people for years were like oh Rath is the best expansion.
 But then you went through TBC Classic and then you went through Rath Classic
 And I feel like the general consensus changed whenever R. Whenever Wrath Classic hit, because people were
 like wait a second...
 yeah, Wrath really wasn't that great and
 TBC was actually way better than it. Wrath had cool class
 design but like the actual gameplay
 was garbage or like the progression character gameplay was garbage or that progression,
 character progression is garbage.
 Wrath is just...Wrath is okay
 but I think Legion was better than Wrath
 to be honest all things considered
 That was fucking badass. Yeah,
 I had more fun
 playing Legion
 than I had
 playing Wrath
 originally.
 Like,
 I think Burning Crusade
 Classic
 was better
 than original
 Burning Crusade.
 Yeah.
 But I think Wrath Classic...
 I think one of the problems with Wrath Classic is that
 The same thing that made Burning Crusade good,
 Made Wrath bad.
 Yeah.
 Because when you're playing on the last patch
 Of Burning Crusade,
 it's like... Okay we've figured this out.
 Then when I'm playing on the last patch of Wrath,
 It's like okay let's gear up for Cataclysm.
 Yep. So...
 Yeah there is a secondary goal in that game Okay, let's gear up for Cataclysm. Yep. So...
 Yeah, it's like you...
 There's a secondary goal to it.
 Yeah.
 I'm gonna go to McDonald's.
 You wanna drive to McDonald's with me?
 Yeah, I'm down.
 Alright, guys.
 We had a good time today. 10-hour stream.
 Average S fans stream.
 Usually longer stream for me.
 I'm going to be back on tomorrow.
 Whether I do the convention or not,
 I'm not sure but
 you guys will
 know right if i if i'm gonna do it i'll type it in offline chat
 or something and like we'll probably stream it on s fans channel
 and do that if not i'll be on like probably later on in the day one way or another.
 So yeah guys, thank you for
 watching.
 There's a new War Within trailer. Would you like
 to watch it?
 I would but I think it will be awkward because you don't have headphones
 so I'll probably just watch tomorrow.
 I figure I'll just watch tomorrow.
 Yeah.
