Sacred Symbols+, Episode LXXIII: A Conversation With Colin

One of the most enjoyable aspects of Sacred Symbols+ is how we get to experiment with some different permutations when it comes to host combinations. Usually it's Colin and Chris. Sometimes it's Dustin and Colin or Colin, Chris, and Dustin. Hell, it's even Matty and Dustin! But this week, we (well, I, Colin) thought we'd (I'd) bring it back down to basics, sit in front of the mic on my own, and talk to y'all a little bit. I field your inquiries on all sorts of topics: Cyberpunk 2077, PlayStation 5, Trophies, JRPGs, and much, much more. But ultimately, it's time to simply decompress, take it easy, and enjoy the end of a rather bizarre year.

Thank you for your support!

Colin Moriarty

Thanks for answering my question! Totally appreciate it! Gonna continue to be a subscriber into the next year. ✌️ Dreams is already been made.. so they should probably make a second game with a campaign, with the same game making tools, and then sell the game for like 40 dollars.

rickymahtang

Heh. =)

Colin Moriarty

Oh dear.

Colin Moriarty

I'd like to. It's on my mind.

Colin Moriarty

They matter to me, too!

Colin Moriarty

Square Enix is distributing the game, but they aren't publishing it.

Colin Moriarty

That's super interesting. I base it on PSNProfiles. The site is opt-in, but once you do, it updates your profile every now and again, so you're counted. So, theoretically, there should be continual growth if Trophies remain continually relevant. Yet, PS3 games continue to dominate the charts in overall, historic userbase, and since we don't have raw numbers from Sony, we're left to extrapolate: https://psnprofiles.com/games?order=owners I dunno!

Colin Moriarty

It's an annoying extra step. They've gotta fix this, or at least give us some options.

Colin Moriarty

<3

Colin Moriarty

I can't have this argument.

Colin Moriarty

I'm doing my best. =)

Colin Moriarty

I have no idea.

Colin Moriarty

I think you'll do both.

Colin Moriarty

Go back to bed.

Colin Moriarty

Glad to hear it. <3

Colin Moriarty

It would be cool to see how they could pull off their own celebratory product. We just assume it's to be a fighting game, or even a kart racer... but they could do a fusion RPG like Kingdom Hearts...?

Colin Moriarty

You're welcome. =)

Colin Moriarty

Not particularly.

Colin Moriarty

Maybe one day it'll come back.

Colin Moriarty

=)

Colin Moriarty

I love that you are keeping the Roman numerals going after so many episodes. Cheers !

Merry Christmas all. Just wanted to say "Marry-O" is definitely right. "Mar-Rio" is just BS. "It's-a-me, Marry-O"

Col I really think you should give FF XV another shot. Try to push through the beginning of royal edition because I remember back at KF you roasted the shit out of this game 😂 I really think it’s a solid JRPG with Royale edition.

Christian Longo

Trophy lists matter 100%. I haven’t played COD modern warfare campaign because the trophies are shit. BUT I’ve played COD Cold War for every story based trophy.

Andrew

Maybe I’m misinformed, but I thought Dying Light 2 got scooped up by Square Enix on the publisher front?

John

Hi, per your comment on achievements / trophies not being as popular as they used to be: I know TrueAchievements’ founder Rich Stone mentioned record numbers and engagement with the site as well as rapid growth statistics year over year, so I don’t know what to infer from that but it seems at least the niche audience isn’t doom and gloom for achievements. There is a growing problem with easy completion games though, for sure.

Caleb Greer

For the vertical trophy view I just go into the trophy and I do a compare with any of my friend 😂 Can't believe they thought it was a good idea. Half the time looking at a quick glance at the cards, I can't even tell if I got the trophy or not...

RD_21

No real comment this time so I’ll say thanks for still putting out content while everybody else is already on break. That kind of planning out makes CLS the best. Hope you enjoy the downtime bud.

Nick, if you're reading this, it is 100%, undoubtedly Oh-carina, you absolute simpleton. People who say Ah-carina are disappointments to their parents. No, I don't care how Merriam-Webster pronounces it. The Japanese characters on the box art read o-ka-ri-na and there are no arguments like this in Japanese language because there is always only one way to pronounce each word. ANYWAY. Love the episode so far Colin :D

Jordan Falduto

37:45 So you are basically saying it IS rubbing you the wrong way. Literally, the system is physically rubbing you the wrong way.

SteelChevron

Great episode Colin. Merry Christmas, all the best to you and everyone at CLS - we’ll see (hear?) you in the new year!

NJ

A Conversation With Colin?! What year is it? Where am I?

Kyle Borchert

Love the throwback. A Convo with Colin was my favorite YouTube show back in the day.

Eric Bolella

100% with you and the listener who wrote in about the kart racer question. Its been 8 years man, Sony should try again with a game that celebrates their heritage as well as Astro did. While I want it to be a fighter, I'll take a Kart racer, party game, or even a PS All Stars branded Hot shots golf game lol.

Real Radec

Yes! My favorite time of the week! Tnks Colin! 💙

Marco Maluf

Wanna Sprite Cranberry?

Real Radec

This show is what we are missing. A randon bullshit chat show, no lines to follow just colin (and some one) sitting about talking nonsense.

Liam Fagan

Woah I wasn't expecting that name for the episode. Amazing.
