Unprofessional Fridays: 12/17/2021

Jason deemed a game "(almost) not good enough" for UPF... never did I think that day would come... :D

1:36:55 "That's a riddle not a puzzle"

But a riddle is a type of puzzle!

Hey just an FYI on the Final Fantasy game........the framerate target turns on DYNAMIC RESOLUTION. You cannot disable this without a mod. That's why it looks so blurry. It's lowering the resolution to hit the target.

why does Rorie think Ruined King is a card game?

Kind of a short upf after skipping all the FF7 stuff, good show though regardless

Jeff with the Pop the Glock reference. (Uffie)

I'd have to argue that Frozen and Frozen 2 are, in fact, VERY cool.

Also, @unastrike, I think if you got Griffin his own controller, it can be set up to automatically sign him into his own account when he turns it on. If you set that one to your primary one, he can play all the stuff you have downloaded, but you'll still have access to everything because they're yours.

There's now a mod on Nexusmods that disables dynamic resolution.

@pimblycharles:Pretty terrible that an independent modder needs to fix something so default that should have been there in the first place

Can't believe my biggest issue here is that Frozen 2 is legit a great flick with great music. It's just not Frozen 1, which is a difficult crime to answer for.

It's a bit disingenious to describe the PlayStation version of FF7R as '$70', that's not a good comparison to the PC version. You buy the PS4 disc verison which also upgrades to PS5 for as low as £15 already in the UK.

@asherwise1: Magic has rotted his brain

$70 is cheap nowadays with inflation over the years. People are just selfish. If you are still making the same you were 15 years ago. My god.

Rorie is always awesome. Great UPF!

"Are you describing the Giant Bomb twitter account?" oh my god Jeff killed Rorie live on stream

"all the FF7 stuff" was about 20 minutes out of a 2 hour stream. I think you're going to survive.

I loved Frozen 2!

I once, as a child, found a human poop in a McDonald's Play Place. I found it while climbing up to the slide.

@kazzerscout: Couldn't agree more. And with the added $70 cost and being on a store lacking lots of basic features, I wouldn't recommend anyone buy it in its current state.

Norway representing! Lefse is great.

Jeff roasting Matt's tweets lol

babble royale is INCREDIBLE

@kazzerscout: Eh. This argument I buy less. You could have gotten it free via PS+ and have it upgraded for free now. But that doesn't change that the price on PS5 is, indeed, $70. It's disingenuous to suggest otherwise. Same as how I will tell everyone to use the conversion deals to get Game Pass Ultimate for 1/3 of the price, or to buy NSO on sale (does it.. ever have sales, actually?). But that doesn't change the actual price that they're selling the service for.

@dijidiji: Haha, and a great example of both. I remember hearing that one in my youth. It is fun to hear people play with words

HOOK

@cyrribrae: I just don't see who in their right mind is spending $70 on FF7R when it's a quarter of the price if you look literally anywhere else. The price on PSN doesn't exist in a vacuum.

As a dad of a 3 year old who has been on the Frozen II tip for a while now. Those songs have grown on me a lot.

I wouldn't describe myself as "new here," but... who is the guy at the bottom right, who may or may not have spoken at all up to where I am in this video?

@wittynickname: GameSpot's Jean Luc, filling in for Jan as producer. He is, indeed, quieter.

I'm still very in love with almost everything Jess does

Hearing ChipChizum being promoted on Giant Bomb warm my hearth. I watched so much of his Lets Play. His Metal Gear series was incredible!

@ydross: I watched ChipCheezum's entire FFVII remake let's play in the last week. It is insanely well edited and a lot of fun. I'll definitely watch more of his stuff later!

I hate to be "that guy" that's coming in to correct everything, but Ruined King is not a roguelike or a card game. It's a turn-based party RPG, it has more in common with old Final Fantasy than with Slay the Spire. it's made by the people who made Battlechasers, and is super similar to that

I always find it so weird when people show off games that they just don't like. I know FF7R just came out on PC and it's having issues but it's obvious Rorie didn't like it before either. So it's just like this port is bad, also I hate it regardless.

Jess did make me laugh so hard when she pimped her partners let's play of FF7R though.

@jscovic: Nah, that isn't some annoying pedantic comment or anything. He genuinely got every aspect of the game incorrect aside from it being a LOL thing, so it's good having your comment for anyone who might see it and might be interested in it if they know what it actually was.

Also: While I've never played any other LOL thing, I actually really like Ruined King so far! :)

Turns out I'll always enjoy watching questionable wrestling games, as long as the character creator is pretty good.

But Ruined King isn't a roguelike or deck builder, it's basically a JRPG so that was confusing to hear.
