My favorite thing is that I'm pretty sure Kevin was trying to catch you off guard with the cold open. Yeah. Because he hit the 3-2 out of like, oh, man, I'm trying to help you with your hair.
I was like, does my hair look fine? You're like, yeah, you got one thing. He's like, 3-2. I'm like, let's do it. Let's fucking go.
And so I think he was trying to prove a point to us. But then he got himself. Forgot to press the second button.
You got yourself there, Kevin.
No, no, no. It's like all automated. And for some reason, the system connects to the thing that controls the camera. Didn't want to work. So I had to manually go and hit the button.
It's working now. How are we doing? Blessing.

We're brought to you by Shady Rays and Rocket Money, but we'll tell you about that later. For now, let's begin the show with what is and forever will be the Roper Report. Time for some news. We got seven items on the Roper Report. Number one. Ladies, gentlemen, and NBs.
That doesn't work from this angle.
It doesn't work from that angle. We have played Assassin's Creed Shadows. When I say we, I mean myself, Greg Miller, number one Assassin's Creed Odyssey fan, and the boss baby himself, Barrett Courtney, the holder of Assassin's Creed in review and ranked. Yes. Hi, how are you? Doing well, Greg. How are you? Good. Thanks for joining us. Thanks for coming out.

Chapter 3: What are our impressions of the Xbox Developer Direct?
But it's like, well, Yasuke makes more like... Combat sense.
Combat sense.
Tactical. And it's like, okay, and then I fight as Yasuke, and at the end he's still not dead, and then Naoe goes in for the kill. This is like a weird balance that I don't know if I'm going to love through the entire time.
Something I thought was interesting, though, right, was I saw it called out there. Bill Erickson, I see you asking about immersive mode. I want to talk about that. They had cannon mode was something you could pick from the launch, right? Yeah, I picked cannon mode. And that's where, what, they choose the dialogue for you? Yeah.
Did you get to choose a lot of dialogue? Yeah. Oh, wow.
Yeah, yeah.
I chose another.
Well, that's crazy.
You chose that.
