Unprofessional Fridays: 08/10/2018

Jazz is very free-form, anything goes! Just like UPF! We have some cool cats and a lot of dead cells this week!

The end of the week is here! You made it! Let's sit back, relax, and close the week out in style with some video games.

Aug. 11 2018

Cast: Jeff, Brad, Ben, Jason

@janman

Maybe it's just the CDN, but it seems like the video is not playing, and download is not possible since the video files are not found. Thanks Jan!

Hah, clearly they had some problems with the archive file. Not only is this up very late, they've got "pleaseworkthistime" in the file name! :-D

Ok I figured out what is going wrong with the videoplayer for me.

On any quality higher than low the video always stops and asks to replay after +/-15-20 mins on hmtl5 on ps4. Consistently. For non premium content the player defaults to youtube and that works fine.

You want to use paper towels (the pick A size), Ben. They rip real nice in one direction, so you can divide them in half for your nose. After a while, you don't notice the texture on your snoozle, though mine feels a little bit 'rough'.

I have what you might call delicate sinuses, and I haven't used a kleenex in years.

A little leery of toilet paper though....

I love almost everything about The Hunt except the fact that it can turn into a PvP game.

EDIT: also wait, can you actually not aim down sights at all? That is so weirdly old school.

Ended up working in firefox but firefox is pretty bad on android although I do prefer it on PC over chrome. I guess until they fix the video issue is a good idea to use firefox for now if you are also unable to play videos on android chrome.

In regards to the cat half life mod I was really turned off by the dialogue in that game and the first 10-15 minutes were just awful and even Ben seemed bored and Brad wasn't there for most of it. They need to strip all that early stuff and cat dialogue and get to the bar scene because everything before that was like it was written by a 13 year old channer. I know it isn't like a main stream game but most people are going to roll their eyes at 98% of the dialogue. It had a cool concept in the end though and I am sure it is fun but man that dialogue between cats was terrible.

In regards to Dead Cells, I'm having a ton of fun but just can not kill the boss in the crypt (if that is a spoiler, every game has a boss in acrypt lol) because everytime I go there my weapons are bad for him and I just die to attrition. Any suggestions? I almost always am going full tactics by the time I get to a boss and I have a super hard time hitting him with any of my attacks unless I have throwing daggers since he charges me before I can usually get a few shots from a bow to make a difference. I just am not getting any good blueprints and it is killin me to keep going with the bad weapons I keep getting stuck with but the game is phenomenal at the sense of progression you really do get and the fun and difference between runs. Brad really did a great job considering he hasn't/ seen a mushroom until today, since those things are serious bastards especially when you have 2 and can't get to the other one and shits popping off. Thanks to Jason again for his love of this game compelling me to try it finally.

The "Hunt: Showdown" game looks rad as hell -- almost looks like it's set in the "Deadlands" table-top RPG setting. Hopefully they iron out their control wonkiness; I'll definitely look it up.

It's the Monty Python and the Holy Grail "Intermission" music.

Picked up Monster Hunter for the PC instead of Dead Cells. Will definitely be picking up Dead Cells later in the year though as it looks cool as hell.

You can never get enough of Dead Cells (I really need to go back to playing some more, I think I'm going to start it up right now.)

I will definetly play that gmod thing. At first I was like what the fuck Jeff... then it clicked once I saw the bus pop out of the wall, the amazing vintage soul music, talking dapper cats.

Those indie gmod devs are going to make something special one day, imma follow them.

God watching this I become so passionate about mods in video games and how much they push forward the medium...

PUBG was a mod, Counter Strike was a mod, league of legends was a mod...
