night last night. Why is that? I started Final Fantasy X for the very first time. Really cool game so far. I'm like an hour and a half in. Of course, I know this is one that is near and dear to your heart. This is one that Mike played last year and fell absolutely in love with. And it's one that I've heard people talk about throughout the years, but I think I didn't realize how...
big the hype is for final fantasy 10 until very recently i think it wasn't like mike playing it that put me on to how much people just love final fantasy it was that in clear obscure expedition 33 oh yeah well they're very similar they're very similar games in in in terms of story and characters in a lot of ways so i i'm so excited for oh and you're streaming it too yeah oh this is so awesome now i get to watch you react to so many amazing moments in this game do you think you're gonna stick with it i know it's early but
I think so. Yeah, this was one that I've been calling this month BBL January for big backlog January. Of course, it's kind of like we kind of have the space. There are some video game releases, but there's not anything that's too big that's really speaking to me. And so I have the time. I have the space to check out a game like this. And so, so far, I'm sticking with it. So far, I'm enjoying it.
I'm like, here's what I saw last night. Yeah. I saw the sphere grid. Uh-huh. And that shit overwhelmed me. Oh, don't let it.
Overwhelmed me immediately. Don't let it overwhelm you.

Chapter 2: What is the leaked release date for Forza Horizon 6?
Okay. It is very much, at this point, I feel like we've played so many video games that have RPG elements, right?
Yeah.
Like the sphere grid is just a very, very early example of just like a skill tree. That's it.
Chapter 3: What does the drop in Nintendo's share price indicate?
You know what I mean? But it's the dopest whatever. And it's like, what if I told you that it's all one grid and they all start in different parts of the grid and over time they can connect to each other. I love that. It's so damn cool. You can take characters any direction you want to go. Oh my God.
There's like a moment where they tutorialize it. It's weird because it is like they hit you with a tutorial out of nowhere. One, I love going back to a game from what year was this? 2002?
Yeah, it doesn't too.
Going back to a game from this era and being like, okay, yes, this is bringing me back to it. But also, seeing how, I think...
far ahead maybe 2001 seeing how far ahead this game was in terms of like i mean even ff7 i talk about this but the pre-rendered cut scenes and how good that shit looks the fashion of the characters um the world i like i'm there's like you get to the back you get to the um opening like segments of the game and you can see the city in the background and i'm sure it's just like some jpegs but they do a really good job of placing them where i'm like this looks beautiful
Yeah, man, the look, the music of this game. I love the style of this game. Besaid Island is one of the standout locations for me in just video games. When you're walking around it, there's some shots that are just, to this day, breathtakingly beautiful. It's so damn cool. I'm so happy for you because I really think that this one's going to hit with you. What do you feel about the combat?
I mean, I feel like I'm not far enough to really get a hold of it. I will say there have been segments that I really like so far. There was one underground combat segment where it's me and Riku. Yes, me and Riku. And there's like a giant fish thing.
Yeah, and it does the thing where it kind of swims away and then it gives us the option of like, all right, do you want to hang out or do you want to try to pincer it and come from both sides? I like that type of shit. That reminds me of kind of like what they do in even modern Persona games, and so that I'm already into. Eddie Dean in the chat says, Tim, tell them who plays Wakka.
Oh, I learned this. Because I was sitting there, and I was listening to him talk, and I was like, what is the accent? Is he Samoan? Like, I can't tell what his accent is, and somebody in chat said Bender, and I was like, oh, okay. I can see it. I can kind of put it together.
