Sacred Symbols, Episode 132: Divining the Details

For some peculiar reason, Sony simply refuses to officially announce how many PlayStation 5 consoles have been sold, which leaves us only one choice: We've gotta speculate. Really, we can actually do a little bit better than that -- reliable inside sources note PS5 is a meteoric success -- but we're left to wonder why Sony won't say anything itself. Say something, why don't you?! Plus: Cyberpunk 2077 draws its first class-action lawsuit, People Can Fly's Outriders has been delayed, Tenchu may be coming back, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Should Colin be excited about Final Fantasy XVI when he didn't care for XV? Is SEGA about to experience a Capcom-like resurgence? Which 2021 PlayStation exclusive will score highest on Metacritic? If you could flip a coin and either win $50 million or die, would you do it?

I haven't even used it recently.

Colin Moriarty

I'm surprised more people haven't complained about the PS App on mobile. I haven't experienced the PS5 store, but the app has gone from useful to useless for basic functions as well as use of the store.

Bos10George

I am more relaxed. Last time I was on video, I was fucking miserable. =D

Colin Moriarty

Tread carefully, that's all.

Colin Moriarty

I want them to do their show, and we're gonna do our show. I don't want them to be the same thing, with the same format and whatever.

Colin Moriarty

It's been a while since I've seen Colin's face and I have to say you look different but not in a bad way you just look a bit more relaxed

Blake Wall

I'm horrified that my typo is now forever locked away in an internet time capsule. Thank you for not banning me 🙏

Rob Kvasne

Hey Colin, im a PlayStation gamer but I've listened to defining Duke, any chance we can get a PlayStation game pick from yourselves to play like your xbox podcast has

Zack Fair

Ok, my bad. Just thought I remembered you talking about playing it before

Cole Minder

Maybe I'll get back to it? I dunno.

Colin Moriarty

I'll read more!

Colin Moriarty

I highly doubt it's "rad" =D

Colin Moriarty

No problem. =)

Colin Moriarty

I'm not a rusher of games, so no worries there.

Colin Moriarty

Yeah, I did say that. No? I didn't play it.

Colin Moriarty

<3

Colin Moriarty

What's with the name? LOL.

Colin Moriarty

I'm glad you're enjoying it!

Colin Moriarty

I'm listening to P4G's soundtrack on Spotify as we speak. =)

Colin Moriarty

Write into the show. =)

Colin Moriarty

I know! =D

Colin Moriarty

Oh, I already played a bit of it when it came out. I just wanna go back to it.

Colin Moriarty

No, it was recorded on Thursday evening.

Colin Moriarty

The video is live.

Colin Moriarty

The video is live.

Colin Moriarty

Immortals Fenyx Rising is okay. I’m about 30 hours in and am kinda hitting the point where it’s feeling more like work than play. I had the same experience about halfway through Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, which is made by the same team.

MostlyCharlie

Hey boys! Just a quick note about Outriders, the developers have stated the game is not a game as a service. Looks like it’s structured like borderlands

Drew Sleezer

Haha, yes! I played that game for the first time last year... I was not expecting it to be that good!

Miles Williams

That's rad! - Kiryu

JD

Yakuza 0 is the perfect starting point, Colin. It takes place before the rest of the series. It's fucking rad too!

Miles Williams

Saw the video post and thought I'd have to leave the video open to listen, then I realised there was an audio only post as well. Thank you sincerely for doing both!

nevernosam

Hey Colin glad to hear that you picked up FFXIV, it's by far one of the best FF stories in my opinion, up there with the greats. My advice is to try not to rush through it, take your time and enjoy it. The multiplayer aspects are not too intrusive so hopefully it won't turn you off to one of the best games of the past decade let alone mmo.

Empty Symbol

Colin did you mean to say CrossCode? I though you already played that.

Cole Minder

LOL there was a mommy in there saying “keep it high and tight” Try it out

Need help! I’m at the $5 tier but how do I join the discord server?

Ricardo Chavez

Coming from a classic Worms fan, Worms Rumble is a blast! They even added some nice dualsense functionality to the ps5 version. Just a comment to the guy saying last months ps plus lineup was weak. Also, I’m really excited to play the new Yakuza game when the ps5 version comes out in March. It will be my first Yakuza game, but I’ve heard that it’s fine as a starting point. The new combat style they introduced just looks so cool!

Samuel Ashley

Anyone able to access the persona ost’s on Spotify? I went to check it out after hearing the boys mention it being available and I’m not finding it.

Cory Mitts

The audio is not just exported and uploaded. It’s highly edited compared to the raw video audio. According to my export info, audio meter, and ears the sound is the same volume as previous episodes.

Ben Smith

PlayStation 5 update out for Destiny 2. You playing Chris?

Robbie Agnew

Tim Allen got caught smuggling coke in the 70's. He was facing a life sentence. He snitched to get a reduced sentence. It's a crazy story!

Miles Williams

Please don’t put yourself through ultra despair girls....I thought I was going to have a brain aneurysm from the sheer amount of painful repetition.

Zachary Parsley

Noticing this ep is much quieter than typical. Wondering if video audio was just exported and left as is. Would really appreciate a boost with just the audio version to match past episodes.

Alan Hardee

I get email notifications for every post so even when they get deleted I get the heads up.

NeO JD

Yeaaahhh what the hell? Didn’t show up on my feed either.

Will Hahn

Was this recorded before Wednesday’s historic events?

Conor Wilson

Man, Patreon is a mess of a website. Didn't even show it on my feed. Thanks!

Nathanael Haller

Video was in the other post. https://youtu.be/XuFwc5TwVtA

NeO JD

Where da video at? Lol

Will Hahn

I hope not. Would much rather had an unedited video than wait.

Nathanael Haller

i've been wondering the same thing

Alexander McIntyre

Is the video only released once it becomes available to everyone?
