Stray info for BLG: - the cat does not get hurt! It will be ok all the way to the end of the game 👍 - The story can be very poignant and bittersweet, but it does have a lot of hope. I don't think it would be too depressing. - It DOES have some very spooky moments. You might find it a little too horror-esque at times. Still, there's no haunting existential horror, if that sways your decision I'd love if yall played Stray, I think Casey would adore it ❤
There are a few times in the game where the cat can die and you get a game over screen, but the overall story is lovely and ends on a bittersweet but heartfelt note. The kitty makes it out fine, though! And yeah, would definitely love to see BLG check it out! It's pretty short so it shouldn't take too long to get through
43:04 Thats because those aren't Metroids. They're Mochtroids, the much weaker failed clones of Metroids you see in Super. Note that they only have one nucleus, while normal Metroids have multiple.
This but my "especially" is Dream Team. Inside Story was my first love but I am officially married to Dream Team. (Unfortunately since all but OG Superstar Saga are on DS/3DS, I'm not gonna get my hopes up. 🥲)
I would LOVE to see a Mario & Luigi series playthrough!! Edit: AND Tropical Freeze! Edit: AND Luigi's Mansion 2! Edit: AND the rest of the Metroid Prime games!
This was a GOOD direct, specially excited about Echoes of Wisdom. Also: Good to have Ian back, or kind of back? don't know if the recovery is done. In any case, Welcome back!
Nice "we dont want to get sued by Just Dance" substitution. Also, if you want Stray without the drama, I'd highly recommend "Little Kitty Big City". It's a game you also play as a cat, but its much more light hearted and goofy.
Just to be that guy and explain, Dragon Quest 3 is THE game, not just of Dragon Quest but of JRPGs. It's neat that DQ1 and 2 are also getting remade, but 3 would absolutely be the one they did first even if they didn't have the chronological excuse.
Sounds like the same reason final fantasy 7 got the remake before older games in the franchise. Its remembered, referenced, and its most fans entry point into the series
Dragon Quest III is actually like Final Fantasy I where you make your own party picking up the classes you want (only the protagonist is always the Hero class. And the classes are different from FF of course). So you might like it. The setup is literally like a D&D campaign in that you pick your party members (either presets or creating your own which is what everybody does) at a tavern shortly after starting the game. And yeah doing 3 before 1 and 2 is certainly a choice. 3 is the most popular of the trilogy, and honestly it is the better game. The project started as just a 3 remake and then got expanded, since might as well do it (a chunk of the map is shared between all three games, many monsters are the same, etc). Chronologically 3 is a prequel so it works out fine as well.
I will tell you the status of the cat at the end of Stray, but if you don't want to be spoiled on that, don't press read more. I can confirm that the cat survives :D
Mario and Luigi, the first Zelda game, and Metroid Prime 4 in one day is crazy. Memories in Orbit looks fun too. I don’t know what all that was announced today y’all plan on playing, but I can’t wait to watch y’all’s reactions to some of these games when they finally come out!
"You can't just give them food and then eat them." Zelda: "Watch me." And I think the last Zelda game with Deku scrubs was Minish Cap. Also, you can't just say you wished someone dies in a bikini.
Hey it's great to see both of you again! Hope you're doing well. I was wondering if yall had seen this! I watched some of it myself when it came out but honestly I fast-forwarded through most of it to get to the ace attorney bit and then stopped so it was good to have an excuse to watch like. 80% of it for the first time (including the new metroid that I hadn't heard about! would love to see more of that!!!). Also the reactions. (the fact that both of you got excited enough to shake the camera at least once each :3). Pretty much all of them yall seemed interested in I would be down to watch too ^^ (also circling back to the aa investigations games: I cannot recommend enough playing the second investigations game enough, especially if you haven't before, because it's absolutely brilliant, my favorite in the series. saying this with 0% intent of it being on the channel. literally just that if you like the series you should check it out for yourself personally)
Heya you two glad to see a new upload with you two and I’ll watch it right away, but before that I felt the need to write my thoughts down a bit as I find you two so outstandingly funny that I don’t wanna be just a silent watcher. Firstly I’m really glad you are feeling better and that is wasn’t you know cancer. It would have felt really weird and bad when I came and discover this channel and it immediately goes… well I’ll leave that thought be. In any case I used the pause to binge throw so so much. I’ve watched Pokemon Diamond Nuzlocke of which it’s sad you never came to the post game but I enjoyed all your reactions as it really was unique having a blind Gen 4 playthrough, Pokemon Arceus I’m still in the process of getting through it but it’s fun so far, Pokemon Scarlet I finished and it was hilarious sorry if I repeat myself but it just is that… like Ians Hour long meltdown… man… but on that note this is one wish I would have is for you two to play the DLC of Scarlet, I wanna see the adventure of Bumble continue in the Teal Mask and Indigo Disk as they are so so good by far my favorite Pokemon story to date, Pikmin 4 I saw and I hope to see you play Pikmin 3 Deluxe one day to change your mind about it perhaps as it’s the game that got me into the series, Tears of the Kingdom of course which got me here in the first place and it definitely drove me crazy how Ian kept doing literally everything else to the point where I though you’d suddenly start playing BotW as a bit before continuing story🤣, Metroid Prime of which I loved Casey finally be on the player side and Ian absolutely lose it in anxiety but I’m sad it is unfinished, I started watching Mario Rabbids and look forward to see how you like it, I saw both Ori Games and I was a bit stumped for how you two reacted to it’s story or Casey at least. Not to say it was bad, but it confused me at some points, Metroid Dread I saw second after TotK and not much to say there, Paper Mario Origami King I also finished and how you cheated at Shy Guys Finish Last was not new, I did the same😂. How Casey was so bummed over Bobby was also intersting😅. Age of Calamity I finished the fastest of them all. I dunno why but you two where extra unhinged there, my fav moment was in the Daruk episode where you suddenly started talking about not knowing to eat in front of Ians parents and how Casey stuck food in her bra… was certainly a moment… And that is it for the time being but I plan to watch way way more. What you two say and speak so fluently from normal topics into absolutely crazy stuff with totally normal unfazed voices is just the purest energy😅. I really like that energy so I’ll keep on watching for a long time yet and look forward to what you’ll play. Still what I’d wish for most is see you play the Treasure of Area Zero DLC, it really is that good… and maybe finish Metroid Prime. I know I can’t tell you what to play, but I hope you’ll consider it😉. The most fun thing about any of your LPs is the crazy stories you share from time to time. Like Casey thinking Ian was spawned in a lab until he was 20 and met her cause he doesn’t know how to suck on a straw… that Diamond Part killed me, I had to stop for a hot minute to collect myself again. Let’s see what else… oh yeah Ian likes Olives that’s right isn’t it🤣
I'm so excited for the new mario and luigi game as a long time fan of that franchise and I'm so pumped for the new legend of zelda. M.I.O looks cool as hell as a big metroidvania fan. I'm so pumped to see whatever you guys play next for the channel!
If you two are seriouslly concidering playing the Mario&Luigi games that would jsut be SO COOL. I think they would fit PERFECTLY on the channel, theyre very whimsical, creative and fun (maybe aside from paper jam, theres some complicated stuff going on with that one) While entries 1 and 3 have remakes made of them honestly yall probably would be better off playing the originals? Many people say the remakes jsut feel slower and also take a bit away from the creativity of the originals, sicne they were released kind of in that "safe" period for Mario spinoffs. So yeah in my opinion, originals all the way
I respect releasing the dragon quest games in chronological order but suspect this will cause issues if they don't continue to be very obvious that the recommended play order is 3 1 2.
Thats is indeed a clown class, in DQ we call then Gadabouts! I feel like the vibes you two have would mix really well with the punny sense of comedy, of embracing of sillyness, that the Dragon Quest series has.
I would absolutely LOVE to watch you guys play the Mario and Luigi Series. It’s a shame most of them are trapped on game boy and ds. I would still enjoy watching you play the new one. Hope to see as a future lp?
DQ3 is one of two games in the series which uses a party of player created characters instead of fixed story characters. Point being: she was spot on, there is in fact what could reasonably be called a clown class. Knight, healer, monk, etc and then also the clown, which is the shitpost option for self handicap.
A quick note about Prime 4 is that you would want to at least see (if not play) the story of Metroid Prime Hunters because that's where the "new" villain is from. It also might be smart to wait to play the other Metroid Prime games until they announce a date for Prime 4 in case they do another remaster/rerelease of 2 or 3.
So funny thing: DKC Returns did not originate on the Wii U. I played it when I was a kid on *the Wii* . The Switch Release is technically its fourth platform.
It's cool to see you two react to this, though it looks like you didn't watch it live. Impressive that you managed to remain unspoiled about what the Direct featured before actually reacting to it!
I would adore y'all playing the M&L games! Their comedy and plot is right up your alley! Please do Bowser's inside story at least, its the one i think you'd like most
[This has no spoilers] If you guys like the paper mario games I think you'll like the Mario and Luigi series. If you want to pick one up I would sugest the first one mainly because it's the start of the narrative that has carried to at least one other mario and luigi game, Bowsers Inside Story. That being said the games were made so you don't need to have played the other games to play any new ones. Mario and Luigi Paper Jam is a colab with the paper mario series and has paper mario as a playable character in it [thats in the trailers if your worried about spoliers] and a bunch of other paper mario characters in it, though I'm too broke to get it and try it myself. If you do play any of them I would use a ds because a bunch of them have features that require the ds in a few ways [example Bowsers Inside Story needs you to blow into the mic]. While I do think some emulators got past those I'm not sure. That being said If you can find one to play please do, I would love to see you guys play the series.
Heya! I would love to see you guys go through all the Metroid Prime games! Was hoping to see them remaster Prime 2 and 3, but who knows - maybe they will port them over while waiting for the 2025 release date for 4. I loved your playthrough of Prime 1, and hope that even if you don't finish that playthrough on the channel that Casey gets to experience the full game one way or another!
Speaking of ghosts you guys should play ghost trick if you haven’t already! It’s by the AA dev team and amazing …it doesn’t even have to be for the channel you can just play it for yourselves if you want. Either way is good
So Dragon Quest is in a weird position because 3 is a prequel to 1 and 2. They're releasing the games in Chronological order rather than release order.
Have you guys seen Beastieballs? I don't know why but it strikes me as an Ian game. It's by the same developer as Wandersong and Chicory and it's like Pokemon mixed with sports anime. It's really silly and fun!
I'm no seasoned DQ fan, but for what it's worth - having played some of the DS ones and planning to pick up 11 soon - I highly recommend the series if you're interested in a nice, classic, good ol' turn-based RPG. Generally, it seems like most people recommend 3, 5, 8, or 11 as the gateway games. DQ3 has a really strong character-creation/team-building system ala FF1/3, so you get to experiment a lot with different builds and setups. 5 and 8 have very strong stories. And 11 is the newest and (to my understanding) most all-around accessible entry thus far. If you're curious, 11 does have a demo available, on PC and Switch and other consoles and whatnot. So that might be a good way to test the waters and gauge whether you vibe with it or not!
Heck yeah, I was hoping for this. Especially wanted to see your reaction to the Zelda game lol There wasn't anything in this that personally I'm super super excited about, but M&L and Zelda should be fun.
Ooh, was half not expecting a BLG reaction from this, but it seems Ian is recovering nicely! I am VERY excited to hear your thoughts on this one! Yeah, I'm very excited for the new Mario & Luigi. I absolutely loved the first three of those (somehow never got around to playing any others) and will definitely give this new one a shot after all these years. You two getting so wrapped up in the Naruto vs Fairy Tail discussion you completely miss the next game was hilarious. Though from what I experienced of Naruto and what I've heard about later Fairy Tail, both series sort of take a sharp dip into Dumb Anime Plot syndrome in the latter parts and lose any serious quality they had. My last attempts at shooting hoops are about two decades old, and they were generally misses. That MIO very much caught my attention. Will definitely be playing it when it comes out on something (it's on pc too). I've also never played a Dragon Quest, but I've seen one played a bit and absorbed stuff about the series through cultural osmosis and a surprisingly good Dragon Quest manga I binge-read this one time. Wow you guys are amazing at predicting or half-predicting these games. "New Breath of the Wild" right before the Zelda game shows up. The slow buildup to your sudden realization that yes, Echoes of Wisdom is indeed a ZELDA game was super fun to watch! Malo Mart music doesn't hit the same without the hype screen. Horizon Zero Dawn is a seriously good game (it's also on pc, btw). They definitely saved the best for last this time. PRIME 4 BAYBEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Casey should finish up Prime 1, leading into Ian playing Prime 2 and 3.
i would kill for a BLG playthrough of the ace attorney series. honestly i think casey having already played them might make it even better - though it'd be nice to see a dual blind playthrough if they get to aai2
Even without the long-rumoured Twilight Princess/Wind Waker ports this direct was so good! I was not expecting so much, especially at the end of the Switch's life. The Zelda game looks very puzzle-y, which I am into. Mildly disappointed Zelda doesn't get a sword, but I do also see them wanting her to have a different playstyle to "justify" playing as Zelda and not Link. Also Lego Horizon info (because I love the Horizon series and am SO PUMPED for the Lego version), it is essentially a retelling of the first game in the more lighthearted Lego style. I do really think y'all would enjoy the Horizon series, it has one HELL of a story and the world and gameplay are very engaging. The first game (with the DLC) regularly goes on sale for like 10 bucks.
wait. you two haven't played any of the M&L games?? Ian has only played the first one like forever ago?? is this the perfect time for a Mario & Luigi series let's play??
If you're going to play Mario and Luigi; Bowser's Inside Story (And I absolutely recomend you do, as well as the other M&L games), might I suggest playing the orriginal rather than the remake? The remake seriously messes some things up. Do play the remake of Superstar Saga, though. And definately also play Parters in Time, as that one gets forgotten a lot. Just, please, play Mario and Luigi!
5:40 "Interesting for a Naruto fan to shit on a Fairy Tale fan." Replace "Fairy Tale" with literally any shonen manga/anime, because man, those Naruto lads really want to fight about their show being better than every other anime that exists.
YEAHHHHHH!!!! Oh geez, forgot for a second. Ahem. Day 35 of reminding everyone Ian drank Casey’s chocolate milk. EEEEEEEEEE!!! SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU GUYS AGAIN! Hope you’re doing okay Ian. My highlights of the Direct were M&L Brothership and Echoes of Wisdom, but Metroid players have deserved Prime 4 for years and I’m so happy for them.
Stray does feel like a game yall would've already played. The story can be seen as kinda sad but there's a recurring theme of hope and survivorship. And the cat lives!
I dunno if this is a weird thing to say but I really enjoy your chemistry together. It's wholesome
I know right there the best
I don't know that wholesome is the correct word given some of the things they talk about I would say it's sort of cosy domestic vibes.
They are awesome!
Stray info for BLG:
- the cat does not get hurt! It will be ok all the way to the end of the game 👍
- The story can be very poignant and bittersweet, but it does have a lot of hope. I don't think it would be too depressing.
- It DOES have some very spooky moments. You might find it a little too horror-esque at times. Still, there's no haunting existential horror, if that sways your decision
I'd love if yall played Stray, I think Casey would adore it ❤
Good to know for blg and for me as well if I get around to playing it
There are a few times in the game where the cat can die and you get a game over screen, but the overall story is lovely and ends on a bittersweet but heartfelt note. The kitty makes it out fine, though! And yeah, would definitely love to see BLG check it out! It's pretty short so it shouldn't take too long to get through
hell YES i would LOVE to see BLG play Stray!!!
43:04 Thats because those aren't Metroids. They're Mochtroids, the much weaker failed clones of Metroids you see in Super. Note that they only have one nucleus, while normal Metroids have multiple.
well, we TECHNICALLY don't know for sure, but it is a very likely theory :)
I have never heard more DREAD in Casey's voice then when they said "no. no don't do a vibe scepter"
I think you guys might like Stray. The cat doesnt get hurt and its fun to explore the world as a cat!
if you two played the mario and luigi games (especially bowser's inside story) I would litterally explode
YES PLEASE I WILL SELL MY TESTICLES IF THAT HAPPENS
Absolutely yes
This but my "especially" is Dream Team.
Inside Story was my first love but I am officially married to Dream Team.
(Unfortunately since all but OG Superstar Saga are on DS/3DS, I'm not gonna get my hopes up. 🥲)
For me the best is partners in time, would love if they played it. I have so much nostalgia with it🙏 still one of my favourite games of all time
I only played dream team and omg it was one of my fav games I rebeat so many times
The music you chose for Just Dance was a chef's kiss. 😂 They were dancing to the beat!
Laying around. Looks at phone. "OMG BLG, HAI!"
I would LOVE to see a Mario & Luigi series playthrough!!
Edit: AND Tropical Freeze!
Edit: AND Luigi's Mansion 2!
Edit: AND the rest of the Metroid Prime games!
I agree
Not just Brotherhood honestly, the games may be older now, but they're still just as good
@@jeepercreepers9 Can confirm, played through Bowser's Inside Story recently, awesome game.
I DROPPED EVERYTHING TO WATCH THIS
5:50 I burst out laughing at work omg 😂
Did whatever you dropped break?
Did whatever you dropped break?
Same! Even my new born!
This was a GOOD direct, specially excited about Echoes of Wisdom.
Also: Good to have Ian back, or kind of back? don't know if the recovery is done.
In any case, Welcome back!
The contrast between the two reactions to prime 4 were beautiful
oh my gosh ive never seen blg irl but OMG WHAT THEYRE BOTH SUPER PRETTY OMG???
Aw, thanks!
@@BornLosersGaming ofc hehehe!!!!
I would watch the HELL out of a playthrough of the mario and luigi games, inside story and dream team were my childhood
The Malo Mart music for Just Dance was gold XD
32:02 We now know that Casey and Ian sure are smart. We now know they shop at Malo Mart!
Nice "we dont want to get sued by Just Dance" substitution.
Also, if you want Stray without the drama, I'd highly recommend "Little Kitty Big City". It's a game you also play as a cat, but its much more light hearted and goofy.
17:50 pretty sure it is Ramona, we saw Scott Pilgrim

@luke i dont remember what DQ game i played first, but the one i remember most in the past was Builders. (Og i think? Idr)
Exactly. The foundation it laid is in the DNA of almost JRPG in history.

It is unreal how well the Malo Mart theme fits with that part

I can confirm that the cat survives :D
Been a while since your last reaction!
They're always wonderful surprises!
I wouldn't mind if they happened more often!
I'm down for you guys playing the Mario and Luigi series.
I second this
@@Bozusan108 I also agree!
Yes me too
Me too!
Mario and Luigi, the first Zelda game, and Metroid Prime 4 in one day is crazy. Memories in Orbit looks fun too. I don’t know what all that was announced today y’all plan on playing, but I can’t wait to watch y’all’s reactions to some of these games when they finally come out!
"You can't just give them food and then eat them."

Pokemon Scarlet I finished and it was hilarious sorry if I repeat myself but it just is that… like Ians Hour long meltdown… man… but on that note this is one wish I would have is for you two to play the DLC of Scarlet, I wanna see the adventure of Bumble continue in the Teal Mask and Indigo Disk as they are so so good by far my favorite Pokemon story to date,
Pikmin 4 I saw and I hope to see you play Pikmin 3 Deluxe one day to change your mind about it perhaps as it’s the game that got me into the series,
Tears of the Kingdom of course which got me here in the first place and it definitely drove me crazy how Ian kept doing literally everything else to the point where I though you’d suddenly start playing BotW as a bit before continuing story🤣,
Metroid Prime of which I loved Casey finally be on the player side and Ian absolutely lose it in anxiety but I’m sad it is unfinished,

even if you say that i still think it's probably most rewarding to play them in order, since the gameplay and story nod to and build off each other
@@Envy_May Fair, but only Ian has played one: and it's the first. If they plan on playing Brotherhood they'll play it out of order anyway.
THE RETURN OF THE KING
You should check out Dragon Quest 11. It's really fun and the Switch version is actually the definitive version. I think you would enjoy it.
7:26 btw i just moved to Texas from Alaska! How do humans survive here?
Heya! I would love to see you guys go through all the Metroid Prime games! Was hoping to see them remaster Prime 2 and 3, but who knows - maybe they will port them over while waiting for the 2025 release date for 4. I loved your playthrough of Prime 1, and hope that even if you don't finish that playthrough on the channel that Casey gets to experience the full game one way or another!
I did wih MP1 could have been finish on the channel, it was such a fun watch.
"nothing should be level 1000-anything"
And that, folks, is the sound of a man who's never seen a disgaea game before
AH, YOU HAVE FACES. Im used to you being a couple of disembodied voices in my head.
Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga is available on the NSO + Expansion Pack if you want something to hold you over until Brothership.
Would love to see Prime return in any form. Ball mode victory.
Speaking of ghosts you guys should play ghost trick if you haven’t already! It’s by the AA dev team and amazing
…it doesn’t even have to be for the channel you can just play it for yourselves if you want. Either way is good
IT'S HIM, MR. BORNLOSERGAMING
Return of the Ian!!!!
So Dragon Quest is in a weird position because 3 is a prequel to 1 and 2. They're releasing the games in Chronological order rather than release order.
26:12 im pretty sure thats an online mode lol
Have you guys seen Beastieballs? I don't know why but it strikes me as an Ian game. It's by the same developer as Wandersong and Chicory and it's like Pokemon mixed with sports anime. It's really silly and fun!
I'm no seasoned DQ fan, but for what it's worth - having played some of the DS ones and planning to pick up 11 soon - I highly recommend the series if you're interested in a nice, classic, good ol' turn-based RPG.
Generally, it seems like most people recommend 3, 5, 8, or 11 as the gateway games. DQ3 has a really strong character-creation/team-building system ala FF1/3, so you get to experiment a lot with different builds and setups. 5 and 8 have very strong stories. And 11 is the newest and (to my understanding) most all-around accessible entry thus far.
If you're curious, 11 does have a demo available, on PC and Switch and other consoles and whatnot. So that might be a good way to test the waters and gauge whether you vibe with it or not!
This was a banger direct ngl
Great react video i enjoyed it
Heck yeah, I was hoping for this. Especially wanted to see your reaction to the Zelda game lol
There wasn't anything in this that personally I'm super super excited about, but M&L and Zelda should be fun.
3:47 NES REMIX
Ian hasn't seen many Nippon Ichi games
WAS THAT THE FUKIN MALO MART SONG?!?!
Just saying, four sword might be a good idea to play with someone while Ian’s still recovering
She seems like she's surprised seeing marvel characters fighting capcom character's
Yeah. They should all just get along and be buds
Guys he's alive hes aliveeeeeeee🎉🎉🎉🎉😭
Ooh, was half not expecting a BLG reaction from this, but it seems Ian is recovering nicely! I am VERY excited to hear your thoughts on this one!
Yeah, I'm very excited for the new Mario & Luigi. I absolutely loved the first three of those (somehow never got around to playing any others) and will definitely give this new one a shot after all these years.
You two getting so wrapped up in the Naruto vs Fairy Tail discussion you completely miss the next game was hilarious. Though from what I experienced of Naruto and what I've heard about later Fairy Tail, both series sort of take a sharp dip into Dumb Anime Plot syndrome in the latter parts and lose any serious quality they had.
My last attempts at shooting hoops are about two decades old, and they were generally misses.
That MIO very much caught my attention. Will definitely be playing it when it comes out on something (it's on pc too).
I've also never played a Dragon Quest, but I've seen one played a bit and absorbed stuff about the series through cultural osmosis and a surprisingly good Dragon Quest manga I binge-read this one time.
Wow you guys are amazing at predicting or half-predicting these games. "New Breath of the Wild" right before the Zelda game shows up. The slow buildup to your sudden realization that yes, Echoes of Wisdom is indeed a ZELDA game was super fun to watch!
Malo Mart music doesn't hit the same without the hype screen.
Horizon Zero Dawn is a seriously good game (it's also on pc, btw).
They definitely saved the best for last this time. PRIME 4 BAYBEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Casey should finish up Prime 1, leading into Ian playing Prime 2 and 3.
i would kill for a BLG playthrough of the ace attorney series. honestly i think casey having already played them might make it even better - though it'd be nice to see a dual blind playthrough if they get to aai2
Even without the long-rumoured Twilight Princess/Wind Waker ports this direct was so good! I was not expecting so much, especially at the end of the Switch's life. The Zelda game looks very puzzle-y, which I am into. Mildly disappointed Zelda doesn't get a sword, but I do also see them wanting her to have a different playstyle to "justify" playing as Zelda and not Link.
Also Lego Horizon info (because I love the Horizon series and am SO PUMPED for the Lego version), it is essentially a retelling of the first game in the more lighthearted Lego style. I do really think y'all would enjoy the Horizon series, it has one HELL of a story and the world and gameplay are very engaging. The first game (with the DLC) regularly goes on sale for like 10 bucks.
wait. you two haven't played any of the M&L games?? Ian has only played the first one like forever ago?? is this the perfect time for a Mario & Luigi series let's play??
Fairy Tail 100 year quest is getting an anime release 🥰
Funko coming after lego's crown... there's overlap there with a few franchises I wonder how that is going to go down.
i think metroid prime 4 is going to be title release for the new console next year.
15:41 that is exactly what it is actually
Heck yeah! So good! So hyped for metroid!
WAIT STOP EVERYTHING IM LATE FOR IAN AND CASEY
LETS GOOO IAN'S PRETTY FACE
I'M REALLY HOPING FOR AN AAIC PLAYTHROUGH
If you're going to play Mario and Luigi; Bowser's Inside Story (And I absolutely recomend you do, as well as the other M&L games), might I suggest playing the orriginal rather than the remake? The remake seriously messes some things up. Do play the remake of Superstar Saga, though. And definately also play Parters in Time, as that one gets forgotten a lot.
Just, please, play Mario and Luigi!
5:40 "Interesting for a Naruto fan to shit on a Fairy Tale fan." Replace "Fairy Tale" with literally any shonen manga/anime, because man, those Naruto lads really want to fight about their show being better than every other anime that exists.
YEAHHHHHH!!!! Oh geez, forgot for a second. Ahem. Day 35 of reminding everyone Ian drank Casey’s chocolate milk. EEEEEEEEEE!!! SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU GUYS AGAIN! Hope you’re doing okay Ian. My highlights of the Direct were M&L Brothership and Echoes of Wisdom, but Metroid players have deserved Prime 4 for years and I’m so happy for them.
When Four Swords on BLG?
THEY'RE BAAAAAAAAACK!!!
20:05 battle cats reference!
You should try to play the Mario and Luigi games before brothership comes out
Ian! Hey, Ian! Ian!! Hey! Hey, Ian!!!
…. Hi!
If you do play Stray,, please don’t play it on the switch, the graphics are far better on pc and the atmosphere is much better
i'm happy y'all are sticking around :) ❤️
so glad to have you back ian, we love you.
Stray does feel like a game yall would've already played. The story can be seen as kinda sad but there's a recurring theme of hope and survivorship. And the cat lives!
S-Tier Nintendo Direct!
Completely unrelated but would you guys ever consider doing a Shin Megami Tensei V playthrough? The Remake just dropped and it’s pretty good
Yoooob only 20 minutes late nice
Yoooob moment
