Fuck all of them, you guys keep it real and put out good shows week after week. Rise above it and ignore the playground mockery of weaker minds.

TheGeneral

Hey! Use the weekly threads. Sacred's are posted on Wednesdays.

Colin Moriarty

Yes.

Colin Moriarty

That would be cool, but it doesn't seem like anyone is keen on doing the Mass Effect thing.

Colin Moriarty

Hey CDC hope you guys are doing well! Question for you three. Can Multiplayer games be critically successful or win GOTY (for as much as its worth)? Sony has multiple studios creating GOTY RPGs over the past few years, whereas XBOX seems to be multiplayer focused. How much has that contributed to Sony's dominance from the PS4/PS5 era? Thanks as always for the amazing content!

Chris' brightly colored hat makes him look even more like a young boy.

Andrew Gambill

Regarding GOW: Ragnorok. I've always had this idea that with GOW (2018), with all the other realms present but behind closed doors and Ragnorok looking like it will continue exactly where it left off; imagine that you buy Ragnorok on PS4, your 2018 version updates, you load it up and the game literally continues where you left off. The world expands with all the other realms being unlocked and you continue the story like you never left. Obviously, I've no idea how that same experience would work if you buy the game on PS5, but it's something that's always been in the back of my mind when I first noticed the other realms on the Bifrost.

I still have to play Hades. Bought it, naturally.

Colin Moriarty

Hollow Knight and Hades are two of my favorite games of all time, and I’ve been playing since the NES days. Those games are truly GREAT!

Arquimedes Quintero II

Oh god, I hope not lol

Liam Mcnulty

It's going to be an open world game more than 2018's.

Colin Moriarty

LOL.

Colin Moriarty

Thanks Liam!

Anastas Lyakh

Yeah, he means for next week's submissions, pal

Liam Mcnulty

God of War Ragnorok needs to bring back the over the top, large scale, bombastic set pieces from the original trilogy, and Ascension. God of War 2018 was great, but it was pretty much The Last of Us, but Kratos lol. And I hope the FFIX remake is legit. I also hope it's not like the FFVII remake, I want it exactly as it is, but modernised graphics, that's it. In the same style as Dragon Quest III.

Liam Mcnulty

Nah I know, I was just drunk last night and apparently needed to vent 😅

Greg McDonald

In Deathloop, all the enemies got alerted to Chris because he opened the spam mail on the computer.

Dwentay

Sorry, I'm not native English speaker. By "write in" you mean I should leave comment about this to the thread of the next week episode?

Anastas Lyakh

Write in! I don't know why I said that.

Colin Moriarty

I don't think it's gonna go the other way.

Colin Moriarty

Wait, Ghost of Tsushima didn't released on PC. Nor it were announced for it.

Anastas Lyakh

On the subject of the DualSense honestly I don't really care if it's useable on the PS4. My concerns the other way round. The dual sense is just fine for the majority of 1st/3rd person action adventure games but for eg 2D platformers, fighters, soccer games, it's just not good enough. This is a combination of the d-pad and face buttons being to stiff/mushy and the ergonomics of the handles just being plain worse than the dual shock 4. Personally I hate adaptive triggers and the haptics I could take or leave. It's got to a point where if there's a choice to download a PS4 or PS5 version on my PS5, I'll take the PS4 option for most games; case in point Cyber Shadow, an excellent game I'm proud to have beaten, but one I'd have been simply unable to with the Dual Sense.

Greg McDonald

LOL.

Colin Moriarty

I knew he was the right guy, and I'm glad he's slayed the doubters these last three years.

Colin Moriarty

The Shatter soundtrack is incredible.

Colin Moriarty

Good to know. I'm getting ads for things I don't interact with; I wonder how much those cost.

Colin Moriarty

&lt;3

Colin Moriarty

That could be cool... but then, why not a new IP?

Colin Moriarty

Colin Moriarty

=)

Colin Moriarty

Me too. =)

Colin Moriarty

CLS Out of context: in this episode Chris says he "...hates dead space..."

David

Chris has become really adept at conveying a games mechanics and design in such a way that when he talks about a game he likes and is into, he legit makes me want to play it and I have zero interest in Psychonaughts. Colins 1st son has come a long way.

Craig Mcguire

Yo SHATTER is coming back! That's awesome the soundtrack just makes that game even more special. I highly recommend ppl to download it or stream it, the soundtrack...psnow only has it streaming cmon! Psnow you can do better. I almost did a fucken back flip when Colin mentioned chrono remake, but it was chrono cross so I got a little limp dick after that. Chrono Trigger is my favorite game of all time so I'd love if square Enix gave it FF7 remake treatment, but honestly chrono cross needs it, that game just plays weird and the exploring feels like you're walking on a picture. I just couldn't continue playing it.

Frank G.

It is more than enough time.

Piston Pants

FYI Colin, the dashboard ads under the explore tab next to the store are based on the games you follow. Every game you buy or install is automatically followed. At the bottom of the the list on the quick bar and top right of the explore tab have a settings button to unfollow the games and that page will drastically reduce the number of things you see.

Charles Carroll

Congrats on the Apple shout out! I know y’all are super nice, but man the comments the usual suspects make make me feel like they have such a child mentality the whole “yikes” and “yuck”. These dudes need to grow up, man.

Kenneth Oms

How is 4 to 5 years not enough time for a character to rest! I can understand wanting time off but needing more than 4+ years to be excited/interested in a sequel just doesn’t make sense to me, especially business wise.

Kano

Why not a twisted metal game like the mad max game? Driving around and competing and upgrading your ride. And if you wanna go really hardcore, if your car gets destroyed in a battle you start from scratch again.

Morgan Williams

Nice to see Chris repping the Teddy Fresh!

George Hall

The "Take care guys" coinciding with the platinum trophy is an excellent touch Dustin.

Wipeout mobile card game sounds weird but if it has trophies I will absolutely play it!

Sumojoe118

Well I'm only an hour in, as I said.

Colin Moriarty

We shall see.

Colin Moriarty

I hear you. It's just like... why can't we have that one thing? Why can't we have that? It's weird.

Colin Moriarty

Thanks! We're excited to get it into the wild.

Colin Moriarty

Glad you enjoyed it. =)

Colin Moriarty

See, the Injustice 3 one is one of the ones that tells me it's real, because it has a subtitle.

Colin Moriarty

Thank you.

Colin Moriarty

That sucks to hear, Andrew. That stuff is painful, I know. There are a lot of vile people in the industry, and they make themselves readily known.

Colin Moriarty

!!!

Colin Moriarty

Hey.

Colin Moriarty

You got the story kind of wrong in Tales of arise the race that can't use magic is the race that are slaves the race that has high technology and can use Magic AR the Masters

Kc Wright

Hot take, Kratos lives and Loki dies at the end of GoW 2

Michael Thew

Colin, next time some supposed "leftist" on Twitter starts giving you that alt-right boogeyman shit, just laugh it off. Even if they did manage to get your logo removed from some corporation's advertisement, you have come far without such support. You can let them know that you have at least one communist in your wide subscriber base that proudly and firmly believes in Sacred Symbols. Never heard of that Nathan Grayson character, but I've been following you since I was in middle school, and I've never caught you aiming to hurt anybody. Stay cool gang. I love Sacred Symbols.

MJ SKA BOI

The thumbnail is genuinely heartwarming haha so good to see the three of you together. Can't wait until the panel video

Nathan Henderson

Second post from me! What Chris said about Psychonauts 2 is so spot on. I finally completed the game last night on Xbox Series X and teared up at the end. The story it tells, the gameplay... It's an incredible game! I unlocked all of the achievements and tried to do every possible thing I could do in the game.

Andrew

The NVIDIA leak is convincing until you dig deep in the details. Why are there specific titles for games but then KH4 is listed which knowing Square’s past with Kingdom Hearts is unlikely. Then there’s Injustice 3. My understanding is that the current rumors are that NetherRealm is skipping the next Injustice game in order to work on the next Mortal Kombat. I’m just not convinced yet.

Matthew Kohlman

Just started the episode, but I loved the SS+ with MBG! And congrats on being on the ad, you guys deserve it!

Peter Pham

I'm listening to this now and I'll just add on to the positive comments at the top of the show and say I think you guys do a great job. Those tweets about the Apple podcast feature were crazy. As you said Colin, the intention is obvious in what the negative ones were trying to accomplish. I just want to share a personal anecdote: I listen to a few other gaming podcasts and support them on patreon. A few days ago I wanted to look up a friend of one of the hosts to follow them on twitter and found out I was blocked by them. I've never tweeted them. I've never argued with them. From everything I know about that person, politically we probably align really well. I can't think of any reason I'd be blocked other then being a supporter of LSM and being vocal occasionally on social media about my support or I was included in a "block list." It's really weird. Keep up the great work. It's great to feel welcome here.

Andrew

You're clearly just upset that they have delicous smelling farts while you do not. Envy is an ugly emotion.

Tonys_Always_Write

Love the podcast. Could do with a tad less of you sniffing your own farts so often. Just my opinion

TreyDogg

Another 4 HOUR banger?!? Let's fucking go!

Cláudio Faria

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

RFK Rodgers 2024

SO GOOD LOL
