I like having physical copies of books instead of a digital copy. I love the smell of books. The silent screams of wooden manslaughter gets me intoxicated
Me too, although for different reasons. If I'm reading a book on a phone well I may as well check instagram, TH-cam or Twitter and just basically get distracted. When I'm reading a proper book well then that has my full attention.
i buy physical media because i love having artwork and memorabilia for things i like, a lot of games and movies i dont mind having digitally, but for the ones i really love i HAVE to have the physical version i'm also the guy who buys strategy guides. not a lot, but i have a collection of older ones and a few newer ones. i mostly love the artwork and comprehensiveness of the guides, having top down maps with weapon locations for halo is honestly great. when i was a kid i'd take guides to school or in the car, so even when i was away from the game i could be reading about it and learning about it and getting excited and looking at screenshots. even just recently i bought a mega man 11 guide, its a beautiful hardcover with a print inside, interviews, artwork, basically like the DVD extras for the game, so if you love that stuff then i think having that sort of thing is great, i love art books too
some people have really ass internet & most of the game is already downloaded when it’s a physical copy and takes way less time for them. my friend downloaded RDR2 digitally and his download speed was literally going from 55hrs to 99+ back and forth while mine only took 7hrs in total physical and my internet is even more ass than his. that’s my view on it. plus collecting. the only thing i like getting physical is games. everything else doesn’t really make sense to imo
We've waited 6 years for a new Diablo or 4 years for a new DLC, but no we get a phone game, I've nothing against it but Diablo is more of a PC game, not some android/iOS cash grab.
I wish people had higher standards when it comes to video games. Too many people roll over and just parrot whatever commercials tell them to think about the products without a second thought.
J. Herrera, I could not disagree more strongly. You might enjoy living in a world where people lavish praise upon mediocrity, but I sure as hell don’t.
In defense of Pokemon Let's Go, they were open about the game being a casual Pokemon experience right off the bat. A more traditional Pokemon game is coming out next year. In fact, Pokemon Let's Go is the antithesis to the Diablo Immortal situation. They were honest about what it was right off the bat and promised that there was something for hardcore fans coming up. The Immortal announcement wouldn't have been as damaging if they announced Diablo 4 after, which was in the works mind you. I do hope the new Gen 8 Pokemon game doesn't use Let's Go's art style though.
Most of the dvd's or blu-rays I get are either cult classics/so-bad-it's-good that you can't find on most streaming or digital media platforms (or Itunes taking anything not in their store without asking you since you already bought it), or movies/tv shows that I am obsessed with in one way or another. And I love special features, I would always watch any bts or deleted scenes as a kid to now, especially if it involved costume, animatronic or mask making.
You gotta take into account that the switch only has 32 gb of internal storage. Even with a decent sized sd card, just downloading botw, the witcher, and xenoblade will cut that in half or more
Kaya I want nothing more than to tell you how wrong you are about Pokemon. There is a whole community of players that take Pokemon very seriously. We play the games with different challenges like Nuzlockes, but there is also a whole competitive scene. We use Pokemon Showdown to simulate matches and build optimal teams built around the meta game. There are tiers and the like. There's also VGC which is the official format endorsed by Nintendo that is done in doubles. I don't personally play it, but it has its own meta game.
Kaya really got my respects in this. I have autism and my diagnosis is the biggest meme on the internet and seeing kaya show respect to autism makes me smile
Kaya, I get what you're saying, I agree in a vacuum they should take the money and use it to treat the children. However plenty of charities refuse money everyday because the source of the money conflicts in some way with their public ethos. Sometimes this doesn't make any sense, but sometimes it's a calculated decision to dissociate themselves with these groups, on the assumption that they will recieve a greater or equal sum of money in the future. St. Jude's is a fairly big charity, and they have to carefully culture their public perception. The risk of being associated with "nazis", at this time parricularly, is substantial; people can be irrational, and headlines rarely feature corrections. At this point, it'll be standard protocol to refuse that money, indeed many charities refuse large donations out of hand that don't come from an anonymous donor or a fundraiser that is not registered with the charity. It's dumb, but it's what it is. Public perception is valuable, and working to cure children of cancer can not be enough to weigh the court of public opinion on your side, if you are seen to be associated with undesirable groups. I hope the fundraisers here redonated the money anonymously, but on their part it may well have been their own publicity stunt, and the rejection might be met with hostility.
psychopurple Thank you for explaining this rationally. I agree with many of the sentiments on this podcast, but they often forget to try and understand, or at least explore reasons why things are the way they are instead of just complaining about it. This especially is the case with Kaya and Andrew.
Buying something physically allows it to retain it's original price partially. Lets say you buy a game digitally, after beating it it's just going to sit in your digital library forever. But if you have a physical copy you could sell it again(albeit with a small loss). There's also the collectors aspect since having a nice box-art on your shelf is a lot better than just the name in your steam library.
Andrew! Not a 4chan prank. I got it from a reddit comment "Blizzard 10 years ago would have announced this as an april fools joke". I was not banned from Blizzcon. I stayed the whole time. Carry on!
In response to kaya, I used to have a ps vita where I bought alot of digital games but once that platform went under all my digital games went with it. So I no longer "own" them.
"You picked Charmander because you have good taste" Well that's a contradictory statement if I ever saw one, obviously the only justifiable pick is Bulbasaur
Yes, the Goblet Of Fire dvd had games where you can play all the triwizard tasks. And in CoS, you can travel through diagon alley~! It was the sole reason i got a dvd player. It was the closest i would ever get to the wizarding world...
On the games, I prefer physical for the simple reason that I can take my games to my friend's house or to parties because nerds parties play games. Of course, I also prefer games where all the code is on the disk and you don't have to sync to the internet to play it or update it every 3 days. Shit like that ruins games imo. They're just too much hassle to play at that point, especially if you just want to play offline and not get interrupted by anyone.
I still buy physical games and yeah, it is purely for collecting. I just for some reason prefer to have my games displayed on a shelf. It’s not like I only buy games on disc, I just prefer to. But yes it is much more practical to buy digital games.
I'm glad you brought that up man, glad I saw this even though for SOME REASON I never got the notification. I'm referring to the kaya killstream thing obvously.
Why buy physical things? Maybe because you actually own it if you buy a physical copy, if you buy something digital, as far as I'm concerned you don't really own it. A physical copy you will always have, it's as simple as that. That's why companies like Sony and Microsoft push people to buy digital shit, to try and out stores like Gamestop that sell used copies. They want to have complete control of the product, they don't want these companies selling their used copies when they could get all the business and traffic. Not to mention with physical games, why the fuck would I want to install the game with my WiFi, when I could just buy a physical copy and play it instantly. As for movies, buying a bunch of digital movies that aren't even tangible seems silly to me, movies you can only watch on one device. Have a digital collection of movies is just silly and not even satisfying, you don't really own shit. All those streaming sites for music, yeah, you don't really own it.
@@emileroberge9459 No, there is actually a big difference between the two. maybe explain why you think there's no difference? You don't own it, there's a such thing as digital management rights. If you have a Steam library full of 600 games, they can take that away with little recourse. You don't really own it, it's even in the terms of service with companies like these. All those games, or music, or movies could be gone at any moment if you have to buy content through these companies. Convenience obviously wins most people over, but I just prefer having a physical copy that I have in my possession. Not something purchased through a company that is in control of whatever I may have purchased.
the redshirt guy did AmA and he did not read 4chan or get banned from the convention, all happened was that he was not allowed to ask anything on SC2 QA. he is well and good and his wife is rolling her eyes at the moment of fame the guy got.
The reason why I buy the physical games is because I'm poor as f. I'll buy a game, play through it, then sell it for almost the same amount as I bought it for. If it's a 2nd hand game, sometimes I even make money on them once I'm done. Most of the switch games are at locked prices (have been the same price or close to it since release) so 2nd hand copies go for quite a lot. You can buy them 2nd hand then sell them afterwards for no money lost at all alot of the time. I can understand why you guys prefer digital though.
Advantages of Blu Rays: 1. No dip in picture quality 2. Don’t have to worry about the platform losing the rights to the movie 3. No need for internet connection The second one of big for me, 95% of the time I try to watch something on Netflix they either never had it or lost the rights to it. It’s more convenient for me to buy a Blu Ray and permanently have access to it
I like physical media because its insurance that I will be able to still use it in 20 years if I want to. Like think about how many downloadable games have already been removed from steam, xbox live, and playstation network that cannot be re-downloaded legally anymore.
Im glad that someone just liked this comment because I was just saddened the other day that I couldnt purchase Transformers War For Cybertron on steam because it was removed last year
Buying physical for switch allows you to save memory Kaya, because unlike Xbone or PS4, Switch doesn't download the game from the cartridge, so it only stores the save files on the system.
I buy physical media because I like actually having a market place to sell them in when I’m done. Also how lazy do you have to be to think of changing out a cartridge as being inconvenient?
As a 27 year old with Aspergers I could tell about a year ago Kaya may have been undiagnosed, but you know what? It aint stopping us from being awesome! Were smart we just cant do shit well in public :P
I mean there's a difference between streaming and downloading something. And there's different downsides to each. With streaming, you never actually own anything you watch or play and you have to be connected to the internet at all times. With downloading something, you have to pay full price for each individual thing but you actually own that thing and can use it even if your internet is down. But you never when the service you bought the thing from might shut down. For example, the Wii Shop Channel is shutting down, so you can no longer redownload any games that you bought with the Wii Shop Channel, so if your Wii breaks or something, there's no way of getting those games back ever. And downloading stuff takes up space or your PC or whatever console. Sure games have "big day 1 patches that you have to download anyway" but if your system has a pretty small hard drive, you need to save as much space on it as possible to make room for those patches. You could always buy external hard drives or SD cards or whatever but those can end up being pretty expensive if you want a lot of space.
I feel personally attacked this episode. I have a collection of over 30 game guides and I actually love some of them. Some of the best were the metroid prime 2 manual and the windwaker manual. The windwaker one was actually great because it had an abbreviated version of the ocarina of time guide in the back because I had never beat that game before I got it. In fact that I never got all three spiritual stones cuz I got the fire one and then just had no idea where to go or how to find zora domain.
first part of this is essentially "Don't you have a streaming service?" I don't see why everyone hates physical media now, it's not like anyone's forcing you to buy it, it's there if you want it but not necessary.
I buy physical things because screw streaming. And I'm not too lazy to swap discs. I prefer digital for portables tho because that crap can be lost easily.
all my ds cartridges still work, none of my 10 year old sd cards do. servers for your digital games get shut down too physical media will always be superior
Physical games, especially on switch and ds, cut down on internal storage space. I'd rather use my internal space for games I cant buy physically. Even on like xbox n shit, it's faster to download, and it doesnt take as much space
In middle school I used to write all the combos and fatalities for the original Mortal Kombat in composition notebooks and sell them for 6 bucks a piece
I was trying to unlock everything in 007 agent under fire. The problem with youtube tutorials, is you have to pause, fastforward, and reload them. The problem with gamefaqs is they have no images. I recently found the stratagy guide at a retro game store for a dollar and it has full floorplans of the level with everything you need to know and how to do it.
the other day i realized that, in games, you become more convincing by having high charisma its really something to think about, since its kind of happening in real world where you dont have to be correct about things, you just need to be convincing now this might mean that, even in real life, you dont have to be smart or capable, you just need to be convincing, this does not mean that you can be useless, since being smart and capable is a convincing argument, but if you are the best in the world, you might and probably will still be f*cked by anyone with high charisma in a social environment (especially if you are better than them and they perceive you as a threat)
At least with ps4, if I put a disk in all I have to deal with is an update rather than wait 4 hours to play the game when I first purchase it. Xbox doesn't matter, I have to wait through a download for like 2 weeks (not exaggerating) either way
Jackson Who defines hatespeech? If it can happen to someone for simply associating with someone that youtube doesnt like, it can happen to you if the people that youtube doesnt like changes The policies used to punish them, will be used to punish you
St. Jude's: "We don't need that $27,000." Also St. Jude's Commercials: "We need your monthly donation of $19 a month. Without it, children are going to die." I'll also take the moral low-ground here and admit that if I was dying of a disease that I couldn't afford the cure to and Hitler himself offered to pay for my treatments so I could live, I would accept in a heartbeat.
As far as ye olde game guides go, I think a lot of people forget is how obscure or absurd some of the conditions to get certain endings, items, characters, and a multitude of other things for the older games. Especially JRPGs. I get now it seems silly, but they served a purpose in the 90’s. Now I liken the new “strategy guides” as more of an art book.
I wiped my jazz up with a $5 bill for weeks then deposited it into my savings account. Moved that $5 to it's own account, then donated it to Kaya. I just want him to know this.
I like having physical copies of books instead of a digital copy. I love the smell of books. The silent screams of wooden manslaughter gets me intoxicated

In defense of Pokemon Let's Go, they were open about the game being a casual Pokemon experience right off the bat. A more traditional Pokemon game is coming out next year.
In fact, Pokemon Let's Go is the antithesis to the Diablo Immortal situation. They were honest about what it was right off the bat and promised that there was something for hardcore fans coming up. The Immortal announcement wouldn't have been as damaging if they announced Diablo 4 after, which was in the works mind you.
I do hope the new Gen 8 Pokemon game doesn't use Let's Go's art style though.

And I love special features, I would always watch any bts or deleted scenes as a kid to now, especially if it involved costume, animatronic or mask making.
You gotta take into account that the switch only has 32 gb of internal storage. Even with a decent sized sd card, just downloading botw, the witcher, and xenoblade will cut that in half or more
Also, download speeds on Switch are unbelievably slow.
Kaya I want nothing more than to tell you how wrong you are about Pokemon. There is a whole community of players that take Pokemon very seriously. We play the games with different challenges like Nuzlockes, but there is also a whole competitive scene. We use Pokemon Showdown to simulate matches and build optimal teams built around the meta game. There are tiers and the like. There's also VGC which is the official format endorsed by Nintendo that is done in doubles. I don't personally play it, but it has its own meta game.
I'm glad someone said this for me you saved me the effort
It's no different to Andrew playing magic
yeah it's like fighting games you can play casually or get down into the technical stuff

Kaya just likes to write off things he doesnt have any interest in, I wouldn't take it personally
Not even 24hrs after this podcast it's been announced that Prima is shutting down and no longer making guides. How's it feel to destroy a company? ;_;

I mean there's a difference between streaming and downloading something. And there's different downsides to each. With streaming, you never actually own anything you watch or play and you have to be connected to the internet at all times. With downloading something, you have to pay full price for each individual thing but you actually own that thing and can use it even if your internet is down. But you never when the service you bought the thing from might shut down. For example, the Wii Shop Channel is shutting down, so you can no longer redownload any games that you bought with the Wii Shop Channel, so if your Wii breaks or something, there's no way of getting those games back ever. And downloading stuff takes up space or your PC or whatever console. Sure games have "big day 1 patches that you have to download anyway" but if your system has a pretty small hard drive, you need to save as much space on it as possible to make room for those patches. You could always buy external hard drives or SD cards or whatever but those can end up being pretty expensive if you want a lot of space.
Get General Sam on your podcast

I'm glad this podcast is small enough to fly under the radar and not get shit from crappy biased news media.
I feel personally attacked this episode. I have a collection of over 30 game guides and I actually love some of them. Some of the best were the metroid prime 2 manual and the windwaker manual. The windwaker one was actually great because it had an abbreviated version of the ocarina of time guide in the back because I had never beat that game before I got it. In fact that I never got all three spiritual stones cuz I got the fire one and then just had no idea where to go or how to find zora domain.
I enjoy how everyone agreed that games were too hard back in the day and then Andrew goes on about how they made Pokémon easier
first part of this is essentially "Don't you have a streaming service?"
I don't see why everyone hates physical media now, it's not like anyone's forcing you to buy it, it's there if you want it but not necessary.
I buy physical things because screw streaming. And I'm not too lazy to swap discs. I prefer digital for portables tho because that crap can be lost easily.
all my ds cartridges still work, none of my 10 year old sd cards do.
servers for your digital games get shut down too
physical media will always be superior
this is the first time I've listened for more than 10 minutes
Some fighting games have strategy guides that contain frame data which is important and saves a lot of time analyzing a game frame by frame.
I really Appreciate That Kiba Refrence
Physical games, especially on switch and ds, cut down on internal storage space. I'd rather use my internal space for games I cant buy physically. Even on like xbox n shit, it's faster to download, and it doesnt take as much space
Yup! Same. Id rather be able to just put the game in and play instead of clearing space/re-downloading a game
I buy Blu-Rays for my favorite movies and shows just to see it in the highest quality. But yeah, I still stream most things.
In middle school I used to write all the combos and fatalities for the original Mortal Kombat in composition notebooks and sell them for 6 bucks a piece
Yes, I very much do.
Hey!! He doesn't have a phone because he chose to be poor. Eric told him what would happen but he didn't listen and chose to be poor.
I was trying to unlock everything in 007 agent under fire. The problem with youtube tutorials, is you have to pause, fastforward, and reload them. The problem with gamefaqs is they have no images. I recently found the stratagy guide at a retro game store for a dollar and it has full floorplans of the level with everything you need to know and how to do it.
i love your show thx for making it
Love this podcast
100th episode made me watch the podcast this is only the beginning
I reccomend to watch the guest episodes if you can reconogize somebody there.
the other day i realized that, in games, you become more convincing by having high charisma
its really something to think about, since its kind of happening in real world where you dont have to be correct about things, you just need to be convincing
now this might mean that, even in real life, you dont have to be smart or capable, you just need to be convincing, this does not mean that you can be useless, since being smart and capable is a convincing argument, but if you are the best in the world, you might and probably will still be f*cked by anyone with high charisma in a social environment (especially if you are better than them and they perceive you as a threat)
Very video gamey way to think about things but it does make sense with media sensationalism which focuses on convincing a large crowd
I am very moisturized when i got a notification
Petition to remove the stock 'woosh' transition sound effect being used in the intro now
No it's 😊
Pls burn
Both of these comments
Especially with the emoji ☺️
r/whooosh
At least with ps4, if I put a disk in all I have to deal with is an update rather than wait 4 hours to play the game when I first purchase it. Xbox doesn't matter, I have to wait through a download for like 2 weeks (not exaggerating) either way

Who defines hatespeech?
If it can happen to someone for simply associating with someone that youtube doesnt like, it can happen to you if the people that youtube doesnt like changes
The policies used to punish them, will be used to punish you
One week til greatness
St. Jude's: "We don't need that $27,000."
Also St. Jude's Commercials: "We need your monthly donation of $19 a month. Without it, children are going to die."
I'll also take the moral low-ground here and admit that if I was dying of a disease that I couldn't afford the cure to and Hitler himself offered to pay for my treatments so I could live, I would accept in a heartbeat.
Accept it then kill him when your healthy and call him a dumb as*
As far as ye olde game guides go, I think a lot of people forget is how obscure or absurd some of the conditions to get certain endings, items, characters, and a multitude of other things for the older games. Especially JRPGs. I get now it seems silly, but they served a purpose in the 90’s. Now I liken the new “strategy guides” as more of an art book.
i haven't had a phone for 2+ years now... For real. it's glorious.
I wiped my jazz up with a $5 bill for weeks then deposited it into my savings account. Moved that $5 to it's own account, then donated it to Kaya. I just want him to know this.
I still exclusively watch movies on dvd/sometimes blu ray or in theaters. I have a DVD collection of over 1000 DVDS and I still collect.
I have to watch everything on VCR. I convert most media to tape except shit on my phone. Just love the feeling of inserting a tape into the VCR.
Holy shit you guys did a leesa ad read and then a leesa commercial came on tv
Physical books are worlds better than digital reading
I still buy physical copies of stuff in case my internet provider fucks up again
Maybe it's being out of touch but I still buy physical games and movies. Digital is convenient but i prefer physical way more.
