vaporwave","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":247.76,"end_s":256.5,"text":"outrun this is the whole thing that was the whole thing because we went

don't","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":268.56,"end_s":274.08,"text":"understand how people use Pinterest it's like all over the place it's a lot it's","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":272.46,"end_s":278.52,"text":"nice if you want absolutely everything in like a big internally scrolling

you do this like because we so the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":292.38,"end_s":298.199,"text":"idea one of our ideas was to have uh","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":295.74,"end_s":301.62,"text":"The Talk The the TechLinked set and the game length set kind of be like","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":299.699,"end_s":305.46,"text":"reflections of each other or be like connected we were going to have a","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":303.18,"end_s":308.639,"text":"physical set and have one half of the set be tackling to one half of the set","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":307.08,"end_s":313.38,"text":"be game LinkedIn you could kind of like see a bit of the other set in the other","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":311.58,"end_s":317.16,"text":"in the in one of them you know what I mean um so you came up with this like split","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":315.72,"end_s":320.94,"text":"logo thing yeah because I figured like vaporwave which is inspired by like","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":319.02,"end_s":323.639,"text":"early 90s would really fit in with techlinked because like you know you're","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":322.5,"end_s":327.84,"text":"thinking about computers in the early 90s and the big boom of of tech like","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":326.039,"end_s":331.919,"text":"that sort of fits and then outrun is supposed to be inspired but it's the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":329.16,"end_s":335.759,"text":"this retro futuristic 80s inspired thing and that's makes sense because it's you","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":334.68,"end_s":341.1,"text":"know that's around the time of the big boom of like gaming like like gaming consoles yeah we were I mean we were","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":339.0,"end_s":343.68,"text":"thinking about it yeah we went deep we went deep into our minds and into the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":342.84,"end_s":348.72,"text":"internet then it was decided we're actually going","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":346.32,"end_s":354.8,"text":"to do a virtual set yeah it was revealed to us you know edzel had this idea to to","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":351.84,"end_s":359.639,"text":"have a virtual set within Unreal Engine so which is kind of cool because it's a","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":357.6,"end_s":362.58,"text":"gaming channel yep but we'll I mean quote unquote gaming channel we'll

take the green screen footage and we put it in the computer and then process it it's processed in real time","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":381.479,"end_s":388.86,"text":"as we film and then it's like sent right to the the editor in its current state","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":387.419,"end_s":393.96,"text":"with the background already baked on so that's pretty cool I

this","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":412.139,"end_s":420.0,"text":"video was kind of like the channel itself game-linked content and what","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":416.94,"end_s":422.94,"text":"we're thinking about uh uh in that","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":420.0,"end_s":428.16,"text":"regard so one thing that we noticed when we launched the first video was people","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":425.28,"end_s":433.199,"text":"kind of being confused about the format or the content uh let us know in the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":430.259,"end_s":437.819,"text":"comments if you were confused because some people thought that when Linus who","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":435.84,"end_s":442.919,"text":"talked about this channel way before he was supposed to talk about it on wancho","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":440.34,"end_s":447.599,"text":"when he mentioned it he kept calling it a gaming channel and so people were like","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":445.44,"end_s":452.22,"text":"oh are you gonna be playing games on the on the channel and maybe we will I don't","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":450.06,"end_s":456.78,"text":"know I I've that's not in the cards right now I mean even before that the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":453.9,"end_s":461.819,"text":"first day I started uh one of the colleagues at Labs Tim he said he said","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":458.94,"end_s":464.88,"text":"I'm so excited for GameLinked and then I talked to him ER like more recently","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":463.86,"end_s":469.38,"text":"and he's like yeah I thought you guys were gonna be doing gaming reviews","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":467.22,"end_s":473.4,"text":"yeah and I guess I guess probably what happened is in the years since uh in the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":471.599,"end_s":477.3,"text":"year since TechLink was first announced like not the the people that were there","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":475.44,"end_s":480.72,"text":"for it were the ones the game like no TechLinked people who were there for","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":479.039,"end_s":484.199,"text":"TechLinked they kind of they're more familiar with what techlinked is so","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":483.18,"end_s":490.38,"text":"they're the ones that are actually watching Tech link whereas the LTT audience at large there's a large","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":488.4,"end_s":494.4,"text":"proportion of that audience that isn't also a TechLinked audience so they","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":492.419,"end_s":497.16,"text":"probably just saw like oh there's a tackling Channel there's also a gaming","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":495.599,"end_s":501.18,"text":"channel maybe they're related in some way and then when they hear Linus saying","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":499.259,"end_s":504.06,"text":"oh it's a gaming channel 15 times they're like oh so they're gonna be","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":503.039,"end_s":509.699,"text":"doing like game reviews they're gonna be doing like all these other things like like all this gaming stuff finally LTT","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":507.599,"end_s":513.12,"text":"is breaking into gaming which is you know","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":510.78,"end_s":517.08,"text":"we are it's just when we started tackling here at LMG in 2018 a bunch of","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":516.18,"end_s":522.36,"text":"people wanted something like GameLinked LMG","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":519.539,"end_s":527.1,"text":"has kind of dipped its toes into gaming content at various times but it

the reason why","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":538.08,"end_s":542.76,"text":"you're interested in all this like gaming PC Hardware is because you play","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":541.68,"end_s":549.36,"text":"games but for whatever reason every time we","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":544.92,"end_s":551.399,"text":"like made gaming content on LTT or you","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":549.36,"end_s":554.64,"text":"know on on techlinked we made we had like gaming content as the we","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":552.839,"end_s":558.42,"text":"experimented with having gaming content as the thumbnail a few times and the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":556.56,"end_s":564.6,"text":"videos didn't do very well and we're like it just seems like the LMG audience","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":561.66,"end_s":570.6,"text":"even though they're all Gamers they must be they don't want to see gaming content","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":567.06,"end_s":573.42,"text":"from us so I kind of you know people had","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":570.6,"end_s":576.24,"text":"the idea in the company to to start game link they're like when are we gonna get","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":574.68,"end_s":579.24,"text":"gambling started you know and I was kind of like I don't know because it seems","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":577.98,"end_s":585.66,"text":"like every time we've done gaming stuff it hasn't really done very well and you","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":582.48,"end_s":587.76,"text":"know LMG does let us pursue passions uh","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":585.66,"end_s":592.14,"text":"they you know Linus let me do two Tech loggers that took ridiculous amount of","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":589.68,"end_s":597.72,"text":"time but at the same time we have to be data driven yeah and it was kind of like","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":594.54,"end_s":599.7,"text":"it's a business but for whatever reason","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":597.72,"end_s":603.18,"text":"Last Summer I I got the directive being like all","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":602.1,"end_s":609.959,"text":"right we're gonna do the GameLinked it's time oh really that was one yeah okay in the summer I remember

so","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":621.48,"end_s":626.88,"text":"here's why when you're like I was hired as the game-linked guy I'm kind of

first link type Channel and now GameLinked what does that mean what game length is the world's second linked type Channel shout out to my boy hideo Kojima well whatever linked whatever TechLinked or GameLinked is now there's there's two of them basically yep yeah you guys might have noticed if you watch techlinked the channel this video is going up on that we launched GameLinked uh recently it's been a few weeks I don't even know yep I think we have eight episodes that's before well there will be one more by the time this goes up on Monday but anyways uh and you might have noticed I mean we've didn't really address it on this channel that much we did a community post we did there was an LTT video that's true so here we are if you guys were wondering what the heck is up with GameLinked what kind of content um you can expect I mean clearly you know we've done some videos already but we have ideas plans and if you're wondering about the uh the background and how it came to be that's what this episode's gonna be so stick around and the reason we're here today doing a talk land is because of you know we had LTX people work throughout the weekend we're taking today Monday off so we recorded this before LTX to publish instead of a regular TechLinked we recorded this in the past you're watching it in your present tell let us know let us know how it feels is everything cool I'm here with Jacob Rush the guy who was hired to write GameLinked yeah in October last year in October of last year only to wait how long months but I mean many months like eight months or something eight months no really eight and a half oh June 30th I think June 29th is when we launched it okay so that will say eight that might also be wrong I don't I I just switched to Windows 11 and I don't know where that's that's fine the calendar is the point is it was months first of all how did that feel being hired for something that didn't exist okay now to be clear you were hired as the TechLinked and games right yeah yeah well but then you were hired and you were like no games yeah that was that was the weird thing is like spelled a-e-m-z no games no games so my first day you and James pulled me into a conference room you guys go hey remember GameLinked it's not happening uh not yet so you're writing for Mac Address no I remember I remember James literally said he's like so I guess we're just gonna have to find some Disney work for you to do on Tuesdays and Thursdays okay sweeping the floors yeah picking up people's empty coffee mugs uh boosting Linus so he can grab the top shelf yeah um yeah I'm sorry about that we've talked about this yeah there are a bunch of reasons why it didn't launch right away number one is because you know we've already we're TechLink was already on a one day one video A Day schedule and we were doing it three times a week yeah a channel launch where we do another episode on Tuesday and Thursday would mean you know a video a day five days a week yeah and Edsel and Nicole who are are editing people uh they they leave the editing department they were like we just don't have the bandwidth for that you know LMG how many channels do we have I don't even know seven seven functioning channels so they needed to hire another editor they did that I think in in the fall I think they hired one before Christmas and then I'm like all right we hired an editor can we uh when can we launch and they're like we need to hire another one editor two came on board same problem uh but at that point it was kind of like all right we need to get a new set we need to we can't film GameLinked on the tech link set do you remember what some of the ideas were for the game length set early on yeah I mean I designed a few of them like I was going for like a vaporwave outrun this is the whole thing that was the whole thing because we went through a whole set design process where well it wasn't like a set design process we knew that we knew that they wanted inspo from us we were making Pinterest boards we made a Pinterest board for inspiration yeah and then I realized okay this is kind of messy honestly I don't understand how people use Pinterest it's like all over the place it's a lot it's nice if you want absolutely everything in like a big internally scrolling thing let's not go on a Pinterest engine I want this to be a Pinterest review episode does anyone use Pinterest I'd like used paint I spent like 20 to 30 minutes in paint yeah you do this like because we so the idea one of our ideas was to have uh The Talk The the TechLinked set and the game length set kind of be like reflections of each other or be like connected we were going to have a physical set and have one half of the set be tackling to one half of the set be game LinkedIn you could kind of like see a bit of the other set in the other in the in one of them you know what I mean um so you came up with this like split logo thing yeah because I figured like vaporwave which is inspired by like early 90s would really fit in with techlinked because like you know you're thinking about computers in the early 90s and the big boom of of tech like that sort of fits and then outrun is supposed to be inspired but it's the this retro futuristic 80s inspired thing and that's makes sense because it's you know that's around the time of the big boom of like gaming like like gaming consoles yeah we were I mean we were thinking about it yeah we went deep we went deep into our minds and into the internet then it was decided we're actually going to do a virtual set yeah it was revealed to us you know edzel had this idea to to have a virtual set within Unreal Engine so which is kind of cool because it's a gaming channel yep but we'll I mean quote unquote gaming channel we'll get to that yep um so I mean you know all these details are in the LTT uh video If you haven't guys haven't watched it uh it's a good one because they go over the whole technology about how we're doing live uh green screen compositing where you know we don't take the green screen footage and we put it in the computer and then process it it's processed in real time as we film and then it's like sent right to the the editor in its current state with the background already baked on so that's pretty cool I mean it's basically you know basically laptops are doing this PCS are doing this with like you know streaming software um but it's like that but way higher Fidelity I mean if you guys have seen any of the videos you might be able to tell please watch our videos Around the Edges there's some please watch imperfection but anyways if you're interested in the technical details there's the LTT video for that but what we wanted to talk about on this video was kind of like the channel itself game-linked content and what we're thinking about uh uh in that regard so one thing that we noticed when we launched the first video was people kind of being confused about the format or the content uh let us know in the comments if you were confused because some people thought that when Linus who talked about this channel way before he was supposed to talk about it on wancho when he mentioned it he kept calling it a gaming channel and so people were like oh are you gonna be playing games on the on the channel and maybe we will I don't know I I've that's not in the cards right now I mean even before that the first day I started uh one of the colleagues at Labs Tim he said he said I'm so excited for GameLinked and then I talked to him ER like more recently and he's like yeah I thought you guys were gonna be doing gaming reviews yeah and I guess I guess probably what happened is in the years since uh in the year since TechLink was first announced like not the the people that were there for it were the ones the game like no TechLinked people who were there for TechLinked they kind of they're more familiar with what techlinked is so they're the ones that are actually watching Tech link whereas the LTT audience at large there's a large proportion of that audience that isn't also a TechLinked audience so they probably just saw like oh there's a tackling Channel there's also a gaming channel maybe they're related in some way and then when they hear Linus saying oh it's a gaming channel 15 times they're like oh so they're gonna be doing like game reviews they're gonna be doing like all these other things like like all this gaming stuff finally LTT is breaking into gaming which is you know we are it's just when we started tackling here at LMG in 2018 a bunch of people wanted something like GameLinked LMG has kind of dipped its toes into gaming content at various times but it doesn't seem like this is what one of the weirdest things about about you guys the LTT slash LMG audience uh ostensibly supposedly the reason why you're interested in all this like gaming PC Hardware is because you play games but for whatever reason every time we like made gaming content on LTT or you know on on techlinked we made we had like gaming content as the we experimented with having gaming content as the thumbnail a few times and the videos didn't do very well and we're like it just seems like the LMG audience even though they're all Gamers they must be they don't want to see gaming content from us so I kind of you know people had the idea in the company to to start game link they're like when are we gonna get gambling started you know and I was kind of like I don't know because it seems like every time we've done gaming stuff it hasn't really done very well and you know LMG does let us pursue passions uh they you know Linus let me do two Tech loggers that took ridiculous amount of time but at the same time we have to be data driven yeah and it was kind of like it's a business but for whatever reason Last Summer I I got the directive being like all right we're gonna do the GameLinked it's time oh really that was one yeah okay in the summer I remember James sitting me down in one of my uh one of my check-ins and he's like so we're doing tackling and I'm like you mean game like game liked and I'm like okay uh we're doing tackling I haven't been doing that for years well and so here's why when you're like I was hired as the game-linked guy I'm kind of like because the launch of GameLinked was also an excuse to hire you and to you know hopefully hire people to kind of flesh out the news team as we're calling ourselves so from the get-go the the there was a desire at LMG to launch a gaming channel yeah and I think that no one really knew exactly what that would look like and we are still kind of figuring that out so we can talk about some of our like content ideas none of these have been approved by the way uh at this point we don't even have approval to tell you guys about it so what you need to do after you hear this is just bombard every LTT video comment section yes yeah I mean what we're really trying to do is obviously what we've started with on GameLinked is gaming news and we want to keep doing that because we know that that's what we can do and we're pretty good at it um so we're going to keep doing that on Tuesdays and Thursdays but you know long term we definitely want to expand into other types of content ideas we're not doing gaming reviews right now maybe later but gaming reviews are also something you know it's it's tough you know we talked about this a little bit yeah we have to spend time playing the game like and like a lot of games now are open world games and they're just massive and then you have to decide what what do I need to play in order to get the cohesive experience of the game without hopefully doing the entire thing and 100 again yeah like Gerard the completionist you were you were assigned the idea to come up with some content ideas yes I was so why don't we why don't we talk about some of those because you know if you guys hear any of this and you're like well that's something I would tune in for yeah maybe we'll maybe we'll do it and maybe we'll do none of it and we'll have to see this video doesn't have quick bits but if it did they'd be brought to you by C Sonic and their focus GX 750 watt gold power supply it's a great choice for mid-range systems at a great price featuring a fully modular interface paired with hybrid fan control to reduce

csonic.com or through the links below the first one I started with it's kind of a staple of like gaming channels but it's something I am actually legitimately interested in and that's uh DND ttrpg actual play um uh I don't this is probably the least feasible of all of them because it requires like a three-hour commitment yeah any like the YouTube landscape is so interesting you know this this goes back a little bit to the sort of like discreet audiences thing are our is our audience one that would watch Let's Plays I don't even know if Let's Plays are really a big thing anymore it seems like streamers do it and there are these big channels that do big channels that do it I think it's harder maybe for newer let's players to break into the space but um a lot of people still like I I get recommended uh videos a lot that are like very few views but they're people playing games um so it's still something that's very much happening in the YouTube landscape I mean we have people meeting here every once in a while to play games I would love to DM you and maybe like James like a lot of the personalities I think there would be something really interesting in that you just want to suck me into your fantasy world I just like doing voices and creating worlds you just want to bring me into the world and then you would just like immediately kill you turn the turn the whole world against me everyone hates Riley Murdock give me the game wait a dice all right all right I try to cast a spell and rebounds and kills my wife all right I think I think we're done I think we covered that all right so the other one the other one is uh something like my favorite game which is just like getting different people from the company to uh talk about their favorite game and maybe get uh the host or the cop like a colleague like maybe one of us to like play one of their most memorable moments from that game that's pretty cool yeah I think there's um like my favorite game is Fallout New Vegas and I think my favorite I'm gonna double check on this but I'm pretty sure it's Vault 11. there might be one Quest that makes you go to it but you don't even have to go to it you can go to any of the other vaults it's not a required location to go to but if you go there the story that you experience is fantastic I'll destroy you and make you cry I mean that actually sounds I like that you would like it because it's it's quite philosophical the other one is the unwritten rules of game design I kind of find it interesting uh you know because me someone who's like really into the gaming space and and is so familiar because I've been gaming since I was a small child there's a lot of little Unwritten rules that like my gamer brain doesn't even contemplate anymore they're just kind of there but there's a lot of things that game designers use to communicate certain things that we take for granted because we automatically know what they are but someone who's maybe more new to right gaming would be confused by them there's actually a really great uh video a Rasputin it's called what games are like for someone who doesn't play games oh save that video yo I think I started watching it it's very interesting to watch um I so I kind of was inspired by that and I thought it would kind of be cool to like maybe talk about things that you know from games but you didn't actually know so kind of like a series talking about elements of games that uh you know non-gamers might not be super familiar with yeah so the next one uh uh is sort of inspired by something I wanted to do streaming actually but it's called humble beginnings where basically we discuss and demonstrate the earlier games in a what is now an iconic franchise so games that uh generally inspired or or spiritual successors that became iconic France prizes so like Fallout one and two uh I mean it's weird to say they inspired Fallout 3 but like they're very different games in terms of gameplay and stuff uh Baldur's Gate one and two both inspired Dragon Age because BioWare worked on those games System Shock inspired Bioshock uh Eco inspired Shadow of the Colossus Devil May Cry and piano3 it's both inspired Bayonetta so there's a lot of different games that actually have some sort of inspiration either something that the Creator had worked on earlier that uh spurred them to create this new thing that became a phenomenon and I think that's kind of a cool place to explore is to go back to those original games see what's similar see why maybe they didn't get the recognition that they deserved if they didn't or or why they did get the recognition they deserved in their time I can see this kind of being a part of maybe a broader series doing sort of like an investigation I mean like one one game longers well so game longer than Tech longers take a long time to make that's true however I feel like there might be space for like a Techquickie style gaming thing where you know we aren't doing like the deepest dive ever and going and interviewing people and like taking months to do like investigative reporting like we just kind of you know we write like a tech Wiki where John makes three in a week we'll call it game lengthy game lengthy yeah you know it's not longer but it's a little lengthy game girthy oh the other the other thing is is uh you didn't even hear that game girth you know I heard it okay thank you it was beautiful thank you rally you're beautiful stop okay next one the other one is uh game First Impressions so I think it'd be cool to like either take someone who's gamed a lot in in one specific genre like they have like one genre that they're very familiar with or just people who haven't gamed a lot at all and get them to spend like five to ten hours in a game and then have like a little talk with them like a talking style yeah this is kind of the thing that maybe could fill in this like reviews uh pocket that people are you know people thought we were going to do game reviews we're probably not going to do full game reviews where it's like here's our definitive take on the subject but what we might do is you know this kind of like Diablo 4 launches a bunch of people in the office are gonna be playing it uh a lot at home so then once they've put in a certain amount of hours we can all kind of like get together and like have like talk about it maybe talk about our experience I I think there's kind of two prongs to go about it so there's one where you're talking to people who actually know a lot about the about that game and then I think would be cool to also have someone who's like never played the game before and like there's a place completely different genre of games or doesn't play games yeah that could work really well and have them kind of talk because you can have one person really nerd off and one piece person be very confused and be totally looking for answers after their five to ten hours of whatever confusion confusion can be very entertaining yes here's the last one that I finally kind of came up with it's kind of I've kind of got two names for it uh flawed reviews slash review reboot so flawed reviews is I'm trying to think of a way that we can sort of do reviews but it still sort of fits into the comedic flavor of of linked channels while also fitting within a time frame what it's time to Troy Baker okay we'll get to that so like I was thinking either like one hour two hour reviews where we literally just review the first one to two hours of the game which would be really funny for games that have like really in-depth uh character creation we could have uh so this is what he was talking about previously the old man Murray throwback they had they had a they had a really strong critique of game design in like the late 90s where everyone just had crates so they developed this this start to create Magic old man Murray so there were online uh website okay uh and they don't know yeah and so uh they would basically count the number of seconds it would take for you to run into your first crate or Barrel and that was that was your that was your start to create score but I thought maybe we could update that for like modern game tropes like uh time to tutorial screen that pauses the game so time to Troy Baker is because Troy Baker is in almost every game the man is the man does work so we're gonna have to like look up who if if Troy Baker plays a character in the in the game and then see how fast we encounter that character yeah basically I mean think think think of the freaking like series and he's he's probably voice a character and it's it's almost certainly yeah uh time to actual effing game yes which is uh you know games that start with a barrage of cut scenes games where you're supposed to be this cool character in a mystical world with magic but for the some reason the first 45 minutes of gameplay are you walking through an apartment building trying to find a cat for some reason that's the worst anyway uh can you make a monster which is basically we judge the character creation based on how far how much we can offend god with our creations now that that is like a let's play concept that I think could work where where there you know we're basically doing like Mario Party mini games where we're we're in one part of a game and we're trying to see who can do a certain thing first and then uh my my last idea was does it have couch Co-op and if not zero out of ten uh so the whole idea of like what uh review reboot because I was kind of thinking I didn't bring this up to you but so I had the flawed reviews idea but then I thought of like what if we just for fun decided that every different review we would be reviewing that game on a completely different metric that was somewhat arbitrary reviewing it on like view distance yeah like just like just like everyone had like like a very specific verticality yeah like some sort of very specific metric that only applies to like that game tears of the Kingdom would win on that one yeah so so like that would be like one like it would be like you can fall for like 10 minutes or something okay so I mean if any of those if any of those Concepts uh tickled something in inside of you in a totally platonic Wireless way uh let us know and leave a comment um you know we're excited to have game link launched and we're excited to do some more stuff with it other than just news maybe uh again this is all very speculative but we basically want to know what you guys want to see uh so we can hopefully make some content on this gaming channel not just gaming news but for now 100 what we're doing is gaming news yeah and then in the future you just let us know how you want these monkeys to dance I I take offense uh to that I don't dance and I'm not a monkey ape um sorry we're good these Apes can Boogie all right so that's all the time we have for today thanks for watching guys this is I mean this is sort of a talk linked it seems like we're only doing talk linked on days where we physically can't go and upload a regular tackling episode but uh subscribe uh let us know if you want to see more of this let us know what you want to see on gamelink and uh we'll see you soon and as always I love you I used to that's my thing love you I love you too sorry yeah right cut that"}
