357 - That's a Wrap!
Fred’s nearing the end of Metro Awakening (Chapter 10!) and wrapping up his journey with Darkest Dungeon 2, finally tackling the last confession. Jake? He’s still deep into Indiana Jones and the Great Circle-on Game Pass, naturally.
This week, we’re diving into our PlayStation Wrapped for 2024! Fred and Jake both played 35 games this year, with Fred’s journey starting with Final Fantasy XVI and ending with Darkest Dungeon 2. His top games include 90 hours in Darkest Dungeon 2, 39 hours in Helldivers 2, and 34 hours in FFXVI. Jake’s list is, well, under wraps for now, but we know his 512 hours of gaming outpaced Fred’s 285.
Fred’s role-playing gaming style saw him snag 263 trophies this year...

8:40 Why didn’t you shoot it down? Does it have propellers? Jet engines?
I like that Jake is so skeptical.
No clue. I didn’t see anything like that, it was too dark. We also love Jake’s foothold on all things reason.
I think I am like Jake for all this talk I have seen just a few seconds of video. Merry Christmas
@@psthisisawesome did it make any sound/ noise?
I agree with Jake, I had more fun playing Immortals Fenyx Rising than Breath of the Wild.
I haven’t played either!!! That’s awesome that you agree with him on this. I bet it’s kind of a controversial opinion. I trust in Jake’s opinions for the most part haha
@@psthisisawesomeIt looks to be under 15$ for a physical copy.
This is really off topic but you did mention Christmas Songs recently. Do you know if your stand in co-host LJ has a Christmas Album? I see he does have a few Christmas song on RUclips music. Thanks.
I'll check with him! Thanks for asking!
Thanks for thinkin of my band, Malingo! That's very kind of you. We do have a few Christmas songs and it's on an ever growing EP called Evensong. Here's the one we recorded last year. ruclips.net/video/vt5gW9gSANg/видео.htmlsi=7K8iWkg-ckJgE-2h
Just a quick note your 220° temperature is in Celsius so that would be 428° Fahrenheit. Something I am still getting use to. Glad you got it figured out and repaired.
Hahah that’s crazy. I forgot they use the Celsius scale! Hope all is well dude! Episode 350 is also on track to being delayed. We’re having trouble finding time between work and life. We’ll get it out asap though!
@@psthisisawesome I understand that you guys have some great hobbies and activities that keep you busy, (your bands, golf, hockey and so much more.)
Thanks for this weeks podcast.
Thank you for listening!
6:25 In 2022, there were 5,849 deer-related crashes in Pennsylvania, resulting in nine fatalities and 1,265 injuries.
That’s an insane stat! Wonder how many of them were motorcycle related?
I was thinking the same thing. This is the reason I have a guy hunting at my house.
Suggestion for 3D printing project. How about a stock for your VR2 Sense controllers. Then you would have it for FPS games. You guys often mention how you missed out on the original for PlayStations first VR system.
This is a great idea man. Thank you!
@@psthisisawesome Please keep us updated.
Does Fred know about GI Joe: Wrath of Cobra? Looks like it’s out now on PC and later for PS5?
Yes! Totally on my radar, I really want to try it. I will for 100% sure play it. Thanks for the reminder!
Good to hear you got a FDM printer. I am sure you will like it. I use mine often for home and work.
You’ll have to teach me a thing or two!
@@psthisisawesome Ask any time. I am still learning FDM printers over 1.5 years.
Thank you being one of the few podcast I listened to this week that had a reasonable discussion about the PS5 Pro.
Absolutely! Glad you enjoyed the episode!
Looking for the PS VR2 adapter on amazon doesn’t work too good. It is 60$ when buying from Amazon direct. GameSpot website has the correct link to the Amazon listing. Thanks for this week’s podcast talking about the PS5 Pro.
Thanks for the info. That helps a lot! Thanks for tuning in and we really appreciate you listening every week!
You’re welcome, listen to you guys 1st today since there was great news and games today.
Jake mentioned maybe getting the PS VR2 PC adapter. Looks to be available on Amazon for the past few days or so.
thank you so much! i'll bring it upto him right now we're recording 342 atm.
Ok. Looks to still be in stock.
Since you both are fans of War Hammer 40,000 did either of you get the Gold or Ultra Edition so you could play early? Thanks for today's podcast.
As far as I know we did not. I’m very excited to dive in. - Fred
@@psthisisawesome Ok thanks for the reply.
@@psthisisawesomeHope you guys enjoy the game.
I grew up playing soccer on the State Hospital grounds. It's cool to hear about things are were rumors/urban legends.
It was great seeing you in Altoona. Glad you made it to your Aunt's safe.
Thanks so much man. I appreciate you joining the Patreon. I’ll get your sticker out this weekend!
This aged well
Would LJ want to share the name of the band he is in? I think Fred mentioned LJ plays the guitar? Thanks for the podcast.
Hey! Yes. LJ Plays Bass guitar in a band jamgrass band called Malingo. Thanks for tuning in on the reg!
@@psthisisawesome Thanks for the reply.
@@1blktalon I don’t see the comments all the time but I’ll reply to them as soon as I do!
I understand you have a lot going on. Work, yours bands and the A/C problems.
I think the podcast version is a copy of last weeks?
Yep that’s totally my mistake (Fred) I’m going to try and fix it right now. Wish me luck.
Hope it’s a quick fix.
@@1blktalon here’s the updated rss feed link but it’s gonna take a moment for the podcast servers to “see” the change and correct the file. feeds.acast.com/public/shows/61264de161486b0014b35d68
The newest episode has been reuploaded. It should work now. If not just be sure to delete your private download of it on your listening device and go back to the show to redownload it. It should load the correct episode!
@@psthisisawesomeThank you.
It is part of the Ivalice alliance which is a universe within the final fantasy expanded universe which Matsuno created. so it has no relations to final fantasy 5 but it in fact is a linked story of final fantasy 12
Thanks for writing in! This is an older video so we're just now seeing your reply. Happy gaming!
Thank you for this weeks episode.
Just a reminder in Stellar Blade there is a setting for auto loot.
You just read the one from a couple weeks ago. Thank you.
Jake addressed this in the latest episode! Thanks for the pro tip!
You’re welcome and thank you for the reply.
For Stellar Blade please tell Jake there is an auto loot setting in the menu.
So we want it on psvr2!!!
Aww i miss them days. Base wars was awesome! There was a football game like that too called Mutant League Football, except it wasnt mechs, it was brutal
YES! Dude! Coming through with the Base Wars Knowledge! haha yeah that game was awesome. I don't think I ever played Mutant League Football. I'll toast to a Base Wars Remake when it happens!
Right
Jake mentioned my RUclips avatar today. Can you please ask him and maybe his brother if he went to any of the Diamond Star Motors (DSM) events at Norwalk OH? In the early 2000s? Just wondering and thank you.
Please have Jake keep us updated on tractor talk.
11:40. I was at a park when I was a kid. I wish I could forget it happened. It is so gross.
What We need is a new punisher game with the return of the interrogation system and special kills.
that'd be awesome
Philosophizers! I have been contemplating for the past 2 months about going one week without any electronic stimuli in my life. No games, no phone, no radio, no nothing. I would permit myself a book for leisure activity only. I can not believe how hard I've been dragging my feet on this. Have either of you ever considered anything like this? Any advice or words of encouragement/discouragement? PS: This would mean no PS This is Awesome but please do not let that cloud your response.
yo dude! hope to hear how this goes!
Fellow Helldivers, Am I crazy for thinking Helldivers 2 is going to have a (smaller) PUBG like influence on the industry? It's essentially a PvE Battle Royale... - Drop 4 friends onto an open world map. - Make it difficult so you need eachother. - Force engagements with timer (circle). I've really enjoyed Helldivers 2 but I think it's doing a number of things wrong. Could you see a few other studios look at that formula and try to take it to the next level? Main complaints: - Objective variety is lacking. - Traversing the map becomes boring after you've unlocked your stratagems + weapons. - Planet drop screen could be way more strategic + fun. - Weapon & stratagem balance is terrible. Are we going to get a Fortnite, Apex, and Warzone type wave after Helldivers 2?
We talked about this on 318. Thanks for writing in Bigbox!
It was supposed to be a black flag dlc. Has less features than that had.
Jake! WTF didn't you pick up Helldivers 2?! You don't need a mic and you there's like 9 difficulty settings so you don't have to feel pressured to do **** for your team. Fred, talk him into it! To me, it represents why videogames are such a cool medium. The amount of unscripted "movie moments" the game provides is awesome. Plus, it'll get supported for years now that it's such a big hit. Fred, talk some sense into him!
TRUTH!
"Im dying laughing" while not even barely smiling.
Our show is littered with hyperbole rflol
Yes
Hey y'all, thanks for the in depth look at NMS in Vr. That gave me a lot of insight into that kind of experience, and it sounds great except for the controls change 😆. You got my name correct mostly. The K is silent so it sounds like "Nipp" and you can just say Wes like you was because that's my first name and alotta people get the pronunciation wrong anyway. But also the NMS has a story which has missions like a normal game and the story is pretty good. I won't spoil in case you finish it. But the point is really to just do what you want to really. You can explore to find planets, ships, buried treasures, find glitches to display at your base, find exotic creatures. And all of your findings you can view in your discoveries tab. You can trade and sell, it's pretty much endless. I'm on Ps5 and I had to force myself to play Dredge just to get off NMS for awhile because it's just fun to exist there. So I'm on Dredge now and it's a pretty awesome game so far, well worth a play. But again, thanks for the reply on the show, great job as always, and I'll be listening every week. Great job y'all
Hell yeah Wes! Thanks a lot man. Fred here. A show or two ago I mentioned how awesome it would be to play METRO in VR. Guess what they just announced at the State of Play today?! You got it! That one felt good to predict! Thanks for the in info on NMS. Hope you dig Dredge!
Death Stranding / music question... You guys didn't find the soundtrack to be jarring? I was into the hard sci fi world, the unique tone, the futuristic themes etc...but then all of a sudden I'm listening the CHVRCHES and Low Roar? I feel like it needed an otherworldly Oppenheimer esque (Nolan) soundtrack and we got a Euphoria (HBO), Gone Home, very 2014 era soundtrack instead. You two didn't have that experience? Great show as always! PS: Fred, Billy Joel is releasing a new single on Feb 1st. That's fun right?!
We’ll address this on the next episode. For some reason the soundtrack didn’t bother me but now that I think about it… you do have an excellent point. Haha I wonder why it didn’t bother me or I didn’t notice? - Fred
The man on the top has a baby face in the side of his hat
This is the funniest shit I’ve read all week. 100% haha never noticed it until now.
You don't go to jail for making a mistake on your taxes. That's some ignorant shit. There are RUclips videos and free forms at the library and through the mail to file. This is some super ignorant shit
We speak in hyperbole a lot on the show. Clearly an honest mistake doesn’t translate to jail time but the taxes in our country have become a business in and of itself.
the right side of the top dudes hat looks like a chubby lil face
I saw where a person took thier taxes to different tax experts, tac lawyer, h&r, cpa and an irs agent And thier all came up with different amounts. In some cases hundreds of dollars.
No that's not the case, you just didn't do good in math and reading comprehension, so you think everybody is as stupid as you.
You’re right.
The government keeps it this way so you have to pay people to do it for you and then the government gets more money back from that company. It's a monopoly
It’s a question also of how much taxes. The highest marginal rate is 37.5%. That’s for every dollar above roughly $650k AGI for a married couple. Then there’s a 12.5% social security tax (6.25% split employee/employer) on every dollar to roughly 168k. A Medicare tax of 1.45% on every dollar to $200k and 2.35% to every dollar over $200k. A ~2% net investment income tax on your investment trades + tax on any profit on your trades (and the company’s you’re trading in have also already been taxed on their profits, with any dividends paid to you taxed as well). Then you have property tax, sales tax, gas tax, vehicle registration (tax by a different name), tariffs on foreign goods (tariff is a tax paid to the fed and is passed through to the consumer in an increased price), state income tax, state investment tax, the list goes on and on. Everyone seems to be fine with paying tax if we can see where the money goes, but every dollar in circulation is more stepped on than coke at a high school party.
Dude he don't know what you just said..... He can't even fill out the paperwork.
This. Right. Here. It shouldn’t be this complicated.
Always enjoy the episodes. Been listening on Spotify for awhile now. Y'all two have good chemistry. So I know y'all like vr, I haven't got to play any vr, but I wanted to know if y'all have tried No Mans Sky on vr? That's my favorite game of the last 5-10 years and would love to experience it on vr. Great show, great work, keep it up yall.
Oh hell yeah! Thanks for writing in man. I picked up No Mans Sky for $5 on clearance and played it for a bit on the flat screen…. Thanks for the reminder. I 100% want to do this in VR. I’m guessing it’ll be pretty damn fun. Forgot all about it being available in VR. Really appreciate you writing in, thanks for tuning in each week man. We appreciate the kindness. We’ll chat more on this on 313 next week!
@@psthisisawesome damn $5 is a hell of a deal. Been wanting to get back into Death Stranding too after the conversations about it on the show lately. I didn't get very far but you sold it well about the story. And I was laughing my ass off after the back n forth yall had on the game when he was getting frustrated about the walking mechanic, hilarious stuff. Looking forward to the next episode. It really helps with my work day listening to the show.
Hell yeah man. Thanks for chiming in here and saying hi. We love getting positive feedback, sometimes it feels like we’re just talking into the never ending abyss of the internet. Glad you found the show dude. Haha yeah man I totally can see why death stranding isn’t for everyone. But damn I fell in love with it by the end. -fred
The new Prince of Persia game runs at 120FPS. I will be able to play this on my new TV. I believe both of you have TVs that support 120FPS?
Yep! Well at least I do (Fred) and I’d be surprised if Jake didn’t. But yeah dude enjoy that 120! Hope all has been well in your neck of the woods. I tried the demo. I liked what I played but not sure I’m going to pick it up yet. Gotta finish FFXVI and The Devil in Me first.
Guys, Great topic this week! Legitamitely unique. I just wanted to see if you distinguish between multiplayer and single player when it comes to getting "lost in the noise". Recently, we've seen Lethal Company light up the charts. A game made by a 21 year old Roblox creator with essentially zero budget. Multiplayer is littered with these kinds of examples. (DotA, PUBG, Unturned, Valheim, Among Us, Battlebit Remasted etc...) It feels like a quality multiplayer game that can get 100 players has a chance to grow into a huge success without the help of marketing or media. It doesn't feel the same for an indie single player game. Do you agree and if so, what's the difference? Happy 2024!
Yeah I think maybe you could be right on this. I think free to play games tend to have a multiplayer aspect and the barrier of entry is literally in most cases $0. Take The Finals for instance. But that isn’t indie… but I think multiplayer fosters communities and communities attract attention. Great to hear from you! We’re getting a surprising amount of feedback on our short here so plenty to discuss next episode. Way more than we expected haha. Not all multiplayer indie games are free to play though so my initial theory is flawed but I think there’s *something* to that. Maybe…
Oh and happy 2024 to you as well!
That’s a horrible idea wtf? Just buy indie games??
We do lol but usually only indie games that we’ve heard of. What about the hundreds of indie games that don’t get press or are lucky enough to be afforded any reviews etc…? How do we discover them and how do we keep them from getting buried… the good ones. Do good games always rise to the top?
All these $60-200 games are coming out broken and not worth the $ as is. Forza motorsport being a perfect example. The game is literal garbage and a step down from the last iteration in almost everyway with absolutely nothing new added. Car selection is worse, track selection is worse, aingle player worse, no working replays, no stats, tire wear/mpg is completely different from single to multiplayer for no other reason than to have 1 set of races every other week that require pit stops, disappearing track, game literally wouldnt post for a large # of players for weeks, penalty aystem is garbage, of track "curbs" meant to stip corner cutting are unrealistic invisible crash walls that do nothing in multiplayer (where it would matter), but destroy your car in single player if you look at them funny. No drift lobbies(even though they copypastad drift suspension from previous games), no drag races(same thing). And instead of fixing any of these things they are winning awards while having an extremely negative score on steam or any other "player based rating system". All the media assholes keep giving it 10 out of 10 ao they can keep getting early access to keep "reviewing" and getting clicks. Sorry for the rant, but the industry is beyond broken right now with fallout, cyberpunk, that space game, anything from EA or Bethesda. Nba 2k and madden are some of the worse offenders. All of this and this is the time you think people would want to spend 10$ extra to package something that is usually 10$ or less by itself anyway? Just so a large corp can take 60% of the sale of the indie game anyway. Then Sony can rake their 25%. Indie dev gets maybe more sales, but walks away from programming since they are taking home less than 10% of sales(after taxes)
You’ve got a valid point we’ll discuss these comments on the podcast next week. We’ve clearly struck a nerve with some of our audience and gamers alike. Can’t wait to discuss further!
Or ya know just browse indie games
For sure. But finding Indie games that never got the attention they maybe deserved is what we’re driving at. How do those games ever get noticed? We can’t wait to discuss this more on the next episode! Thanks for writing.
