Wait, Huber and Bosman team up for Trivia Tower? Holy shit, I immediately thought of the good old EZA Betting days. I hope they start screaming at each other LOL.
I know he’s not a cohort now…but I’m going to confidently say I can’t wait for him to be a cohort in the future cause this is what I dreamed of as soon as Huber tweeted about looking for more work!
Please make Huber a regular guest on the Minnmax show, I will become a Patron just for that!!! Please Ben. With that being said though, Huber REALLY needs to improve his audio set up.
Haha yeah that made me pause, too. I guess it's a familiarity thing, it feels weird to refer to someone by their last name when you don't know them super well
FYI In backstage pass, they asked him what he prefers. He was like I’m cool with Michael or Mike or Huber, so he kind of left it up to each person to decide lol
HUBER! *HYPE!!* COHORT!!! The world, the _world,_ would be pure perfection with Huber around as a Cohort on MinnMax. Yes, this is how we hype stuff--and the hype is real--Ben and Huber are my absolute top Games Media people. Miss Suriel, love Kyle and Jeffm, and I miss Ben Moore above all--but I digress: *HUBER HYPE* :D
I think this might finally be the time when the Yakuza series is recognized as having some of the best writing in the Industry, it takes a lot of effort to make a game both funny and emotional and swinging between those two effortlessly countless times.
I definitely agree with Huber about The Last of Us 2 looking and playing better than it ever did, granted I'm playing with uncapped frame rate on which seems to consistently sit around 100 fps.
I think that's the thing. Depending on your settings, there might be an upgrade or no change at all. Jacob probably was playing on the performance mode that changes the least.
I feel like this is a 3 month trial period to make sure he’s a good fit. EZA is going down the drain fast.. Brad left and went to LSM. Huber will need a new job eventually, hopefully he can be a mainstay at MinnMax in the future.
For the TLOU II commentary, you can watch all of it without gameplay. There's a cutscene selector in the menu now, just watch it all through there, it'll automatically move to the next cutscene if you turn on commentaries.
In response to Kelsey, she's right to be a little confused at people saying this is what people want out of Pokemon since its so different than the Pokemon games. The thing is, people have been asking for drastically different Pokemon games for years that abandon the same exact formula of the majority of the game being the trainer and pokemon themselves having very little interactivity besides "go battle for me" and "stay still for me to catch you" . Despite Palworld being a survival/adventure exploration game inherently, its incredibly dynamic to be in this world where Pals can be fought alongside you rather than in proxy of you. Not only that, they can be made to do crucially meaningful things to the gameplay by assembling resources and sustaining other pals on their own, while still keeping the identity of their "type" to be so previelnt (fire pals cook and forge iron, for example). Pokemon's idea of "living with pokemon" is just incredibly shallow by comparison for most of the game. Theres a reason people's favorite part of a lot of the games is which Pokemon can be ridden as a means of travel, and GameFreak somehow has made hardly any advances there in years The Pokemon shallowness is also made 1000x worse with the braindead dialogue in the mainline Pokemon games, especially recent ones. Theres ways to make things fun for kids and not have nearly everything story related feel so soulless/boring. Palworld, by contrast, just takes away nearly all that friction, using its environment and gameplay loop to generate your feelings towards this world instead. The fact that its Early Access which leaves it to have more potential for growth, as well as it being fullly co-op multiplayer, play a huge role in the immersion and excitiement as well.
Something about Kelsey's exasperated "that's not copy that's cut!" was the biggest laugh in this episode for me. Oh and Kelsey talking about how it's weird if you're playing Infinite Wealth while the dub reminded me of watching Persona 4. When they're taking English classes there's a funny line where someone says something like "English sure is hard. Because we're speaking Japanese. Because we're in Japan." Maybe not as meta as I'm making it but it's one of those funny dub moments where you're like "oh right"
Jacob saying "Here is the arcade mode of a game where when you shoot someone in the stomach they scream like they're actually dying" is an incredible line
I don’t understand the criticism personally. Because the game has a serious subject matter, they can’t take systems in the game and make a fun clearly marked, very arcadey side mode? What is this, the 1990s?
@@Nathan-oo2ikThey can, but it's not just the subject matter, it's that the gameplay, visuals, sound design, and narrative of TLOU2 are all intertwined. You change the tone and narrative but not any of the other parts and it feels jarring. On the other hand, something like RE4 Mercenaries works really well because the animations from the base game all felt a bit goofy anyways.
@@Nathan-oo2ik What the other person said. Also, its not just that the core game is serious. Its that the core game is nearly photorealistically violent and filled with nasty feelings, and the combat is designed to make you feel that way. The Last of Us 2 isnt just some serious game, it is trying to be one of the most serious games ever made. Would you want them to make a Hellblade spinoff mode where its you need to press the buttons on the controller to the rhythm of the psychotic voices in her head singing? Like cmon lol, thats essentially what we're dealing with here
@@PantsaBear I feel like the Hellblade comparison doesn't work because what you're describing is not part of the original game and Hellblade doesn't have good gameplay. It's fine if people don't want to play more of the Last of Us 2 in a roguelike context, but like Huber said, you could already replay the encounters in a sort of arcade-y version of the original without the context of the story with modifiers/cheats even. On one hand I do get it, but on the other it's really not hard to dissociate the gameplay/combat from the story. I think it's also why GoW had a lot of story with their roguelike mode and Last of Us has none.
Dang Huber feels like a nice breath of fresh air and voice of reason; love seeing more of him (honestly I know nothing about him besides his last hosting of trivia tower)
I haven't watched Minnmax in quite a while but I genuinely love that you guys all play the game being reviewed. Even if no one finishes the game or someone only plays a few hrs it means everyone gets to talk. One of my biggest pet peeves in discussions is when only one person is talking about the game as everyone just nods their heads.
One thing folks aren't mentioning about Palworld is how much it reminds me of the old Monster Rancher games a bit. I just want to literally raise monsters on a ranch/ base. How has nobody cornered the harvest moon pokemon cross over fans?
It was interesting to hear Jacob say that he expects Like a Dragon to end up in the "5 to 10" range for him at the end of the year. The only game I can think of that would usurp it for me is Dragon's Dogma 2. What are these 4-9 amazing games Jacob is looking forward to? Great discussion on the game, thank you folks for the work you put in every week!
Niceee, Huber!! What a great mix, I loved seeing him. He’s like a fine wine too, only gets better with time as he gets more comfortable with his environment. RIP Huber at E3, truly some of the most jolly videos of any content. -FUNKNOWN
As someone who's never played or had awareness for Yakuza games I feel like a new one is talked about every other month and I hear they're always filled with content. 😂 Idk how they keep making them and then how does anyone keep up?!
I get the impression that the wish fulfillment of Palworld is more about giving the creatures more stuff to do. Not so much about it being a survival game.
1:49:00 All of the promises of Fable were fully realized! .....In Fable 2. But yes, I loved Project Ego, and lament how I never got to play the game Peter Molyneux pitched.
The palworld discourse is weird considering the long legacy of doom clones, street fighter clones and more in the history of the game industry people would always copy the successful stuff the only difference is that when a street fighter clone gets popular it becomes fatal fury and king of fighters but now somehow is wrong
The difference is the things you're talking about are gameplay clones. Copying gameplay is legal and fine (assuming it wasn't patented anyway which it usually isn't). Palworld discourse is about copying the art itself which is copyrightable.
@@pachecodejesus So that's a case in point there. The gameplay clones you brought up as a group were fine but specific instances where art may have been copied or to closely derivative of other art was not. That's what the Palworld discourse in this video is about, is the art to close.
On the language discussion for Infinite Wealth, Kasuga does say the half Japanese guy that joins your party with the glasses at the start will act as your translator. So that is I think how they explain going forward from that point how you can automatically understand the English speakers
Great episode overall! Although I prefer the old overlays. The smaller boxes for guests (during the like a dragon part) made it hard to focus on the speaker, especially on mobile. I’d rather see the peeps than generic gameplay 😊
I feel like Pal World is being downplayed a lot in the discussion. You guys should play it more because it's not just a survival game where you chop up Pikachu's. After a few hours in, you've built your base and unlock the ability to fly and then the game really opens up for you. You can go ANYWHERE in a way better way Scarlet/Violet did. The game evolves from a Survival game into a Pokemon game, and then shortly after into a Monster Hunter game WITH YOUR FRIENDS. Does it have longevity? That doesn't matter really. It quickly sold 7M, maybe even double by the end of the year. They already accomplished what they wanted to do lol when a game comes out are we thinking of the longevity of it? We aren't. I think this games getting unfair critiques/goals set on it just because it's a "bootleg Pokemon game" when it really isn't. It's far better than any Pokemon game in the past decade but it's not really comparable even then.
Yeah Jacob was completely dismissive of it and hadn't even played the game. It's fine if he has no interest in it, but would be nice if he at least tried it before completely writing it off.
If Jacob disagrees about even 1 percent of something politically or morally, then it is automatically terrible in his eyes whether he's actually played/watched/experienced it or not. He basically says it himself in this video. @@Echo__plex

Not sure why you think kids are driving the hype behind Palworld. I just spent the week playing in a 30 person server where everyone is over 30. 30 over 30 if you will
2:09:39 Empire of the Sun is not a Tintin book, rather it's a 1987 flick starring a young Christian Bale in what I believe is his very best role and which I also think is Spielberg's best flick not called "Last Crusade".

Really looking forward to the nervous Huber energy in a game show host manner. 🎉
Huber on MinnMax is truly a peanut butter and chocolate combination.
True! now, bring his best friend Brad Ellis over for some Jolly co-op in future pods too, LSM/Minmaxx crossovers, the true dream!
You mean caca?
I love Huber! I know you said he's not a cohort, but what if he was? I'd love to see him talk about Hitman with Leo and Haley
Kyle Bosr and Michael Huber co-hosting Trivia Tower. What a dream!
Love Huber! Keep bringing him back
Yep, bring his best friend Brad Ellis over for some Jolly co-op in future pods too, LSM/Minmaxx crossovers, the true dream!
The podcast has somehow gotten even jollier!
Wait, Huber and Bosman team up for Trivia Tower? Holy shit, I immediately thought of the good old EZA Betting days. I hope they start screaming at each other LOL.
I know he’s not a cohort now…but I’m going to confidently say I can’t wait for him to be a cohort in the future cause this is what I dreamed of as soon as Huber tweeted about looking for more work!
Manifesting.
Love Huber, can't wait to play Infinite Wealth
HUBER HYPE!!!!!! He fits in so well with minnmax, BONDS!
Seeing two personalities I frequently watch (Huber and Jacob) unexpectedly in one podcast is a surprise and a delight for sure
Huber Hype!
Huber is amazing.
Please make Huber a regular guest on the Minnmax show, I will become a Patron just for that!!! Please Ben. With that being said though, Huber REALLY needs to improve his audio set up.
Two more hours of Michael Huber suddenly appears???? Fuck yeah!
I say this about everyone at MinnMax too, but Huber is the damn BEST! ❤
Hearing Kyle refer to Huber as "Michael" was so jarring to me, I'm so used to the Allies calling him by his surname.
Haha yeah that made me pause, too. I guess it's a familiarity thing, it feels weird to refer to someone by their last name when you don't know them super well
FYI In backstage pass, they asked him what he prefers. He was like I’m cool with Michael or Mike or Huber, so he kind of left it up to each person to decide lol
I thought that was mainly to differentiate Huber and Damiani as they both had the same first name.
Brad called Huber "Mike" a lot
@@battlep0t i literally always forget damiani's first name looool
It made me pause, then feel like, "oh, this is fresh and very good."
Aww man i hate hearing that some idiots shit on Haley.
Hope she doesn't get discouraged by them i always love her input
I hope she isn't discouraged either. I try not to play favorites but she's just got such great energy and I love her presence so much.
L&R to huber and the MinnMax crew :D

The writing has always been good. The gameplay has not, hopefully it's improved in this game...
@@BigBADSTUFF69the gameplay has been pretty good too :(
@@ketrub I found it extremely repetitive both in 0 and LAD, couldn't finish either
loved that lengthy yakuza 8 discussion. felt like a mini deepest dive
Huber army!

You love to see it!

Hire him you cowards!!
HYPE!
No but for real, poach Huber
I want to read this comment section for Huber love, but I'm afraid to read it for Palworld discourse
Most accurate comment. Idk what happened but everyone is ready to fight
No return is fucking fantastic, couldn’t (respectfully) disagree with Huber more here. I’ve been hooked since the second I started it.
Sweet Huber energy episode
Imagine Huber on MinnMax long term!!
10 bucks is a steal for lost levels and the rogue lite alone
I agree, I don't get this attitude towards LOUS Part 2 Remastered. The mode is really fun to play
BONDS
As someone who's never played or had awareness for Yakuza games I feel like a new one is talked about every other month and I hear they're always filled with content. 😂 Idk how they keep making them and then how does anyone keep up?!
As Yakuza fan, they seem to always up again just about when I'm in the mood to play another Yakuza game again 😄
I see Huber, I like - easy as ABC & 123

Oww this is fantastic news, love Huber and Bosman
Ben not liking doom is totally on brand yet still so shocking
Loving the updated layout with the gameplay.
Lookin super clean. Minnmax just keeps.... min-maxing 😂😂😂

100%.
Im down for Huber being on more. 🔥

After a few hours in, you've built your base and unlock the ability to fly and then the game really opens up for you. You can go ANYWHERE in a way better way Scarlet/Violet did. The game evolves from a Survival game into a Pokemon game, and then shortly after into a Monster Hunter game WITH YOUR FRIENDS.
