After hearing rumors of Tetsuya Nomura (of Kingdom Hearts infamy) having a hand in the Final Fantasy VII Remake, a concerned LaughingMan cheated and, like Don Corneo, peeked up Cloud’s skirt to see the spoilers. Having played the original Final Fantasy VII, and eager to ramble about exactly how the story of the Final Fantasy VII Remake compares to the original game, he invites his long-time friend and fellow gamer, LlamaPockets, to discuss the revelations. Being notoriously bad at spoiling plot points, LaughingMan bites his tongue and waits impatiently as LlamaPockets finishes the game faster than a Netflix binge of “The Tiger King”.

And both of these Final Fantasy VII veterans have a lot to say about this long-anticipated remake of a game that each of them has played through at least 4x each.

What they discover is a game that has largely improved upon the original, but they wonder if the addition of the Whispers convolutes the plot, which has now gone off the rails.
The original Final Fantasy VII now feels like the “Sparknotes” version of this larger, fuller, and richer game.

LlamaPocket has nostalgia for Final Fantasy VII because it was his first real RPG experience, and he explains how revolutionary it was on the Playstation.
LaughingMan still defends his desire to name his first son “Vincent”, and Llama takes the piss.

We try to discuss exactly what the Whispers are, and we spin speculations of whether or not Aerith and Sepheroth are actually self-aware in the FF7 Remake of the events of the original. However, in doing so, it now appears to keep the original Final Fantasy 7 as canon.

The Walking Deadpan has LaughingMan play the decade old, but brilliantly meme-tastic RPGMaker masterpiece, Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden. We roam the wastes of Neo New York, where basketball has been banned after Charles Barkley killed thousands using his Chaos Dunk. We roam the crime-infested wastes, using neo-shekels to buy Ecto Cooler, avoiding emotionally unstable sewer furries, encountering NBA stars, and outrunning a fedora-wearing Michael Jordan as he hunts down anyone who dares play basketball.

Does Charles Barkley know about this game? If so, Charles Barkley should legitimately play it for a charity stream.

LaughingMan games out with his long-time friend, LlamaPockets (aka Bob) to play some games starting with the punk rock beat’em up, “Charlie Murder” by Ska Studio, creators of “The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile” and the critically acclaimed “Salt & Sanctuary”. Their first point of contention is that Monster Ultra isn’t “Boomer” enough, so they fuel their gaming with the resurrected Surge cola, just like they did in the late 90s.

Conversation Topics:

• LlamaPockets still can’t get over the fact that LaughingMan can’t play horror games to save his life. “I’ve never seen a more upsetting playthrough of Silent Hills P.T., ever”
• Konami is finally going back game development after an affair with pachinko machines, likely thanks to Kojima bankrupting the company. Hideo Kojima is likely an egomaniac that can’t tell a clear or understandable story.
• Mother Russia Bleeds mentally scarred LlamaPockets after he Google searched the drug of the same name.
• LlamaPockets tells LaughingMan about how his Amazon Prime was pushing low-budget, home made Native American zombie horror movies on him
• LlamaPockets and LaughingMan met in 1st grade because of Nintendo Power Magazine

Nat gets a reluctant LaughingMan to play The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, but he’s completely oblivious. They then embark on a snarky quest to find fashionable clothing for a warrior ‘lady of the evening’, destroy the gates to the heavy metal world of Oblivion, get lost in a demonic fortress, and attempt to kill Sean Bean before the stream is over.
