Brad, my kids gotten real into repo.

0:37.5

Oh. Yeah. How could you let this happen? Yeah. Like, look, she knows what the bad guys are called. Wait, they have names? Oh, yeah. There's a whole thing. Is this like an inky, blinky type situation? The names are fair. Like, one of them, the, the nightmare thing that comes out when you pop the red balloons is called the birthday boy. There's a cleanup crew that like has a bunch of lumpy faces on its back. There, like there's the big head guy is called the head man. Uh, you know. Just sounds like some five nights of Freddy Slop. It just sounds like Freddy Slop. Wow. I mean,

0:38.0

does Freddy have,

0:38.7

does Freddy have prox chat?

0:40.1

I don't think it does it?

0:41.0

Oh,

0:41.1

I have no idea. It's just, I've ever played Five Nights, Freddy's. Those names sound like the types of characters you would get from that style of game. Maybe I'm generalizing too much. Yeah, like, well, that's a whole thing that I really like in games.

0:52.3

Like, remember,

0:53.3

remember when PubG came out and the map didn't have labels on it

0:56.1

except for, like, the five big cities?

0:57.9

Yeah. So everybody just came up with. Yeah. Coming up with your own vernacular for a game is awesome. In fact, what were those names? I don't remember. Well, it was like, it was like that you had prison and you had school. School. Yeah. was labeled I think, but it was. Okay. Maybe not. But like, I just, I just remember dropping at school a lot for some reason. Yeah, that was that was one of the hot drops. But there were all these other places were named. And then, and then eventually they like, they put the names on the maps. And some people found that they were wrong. And some people found out they were were right and all was right in the world. And I miss early PubG. I guess I'm preaching to the choir here. Yeah. Well, but I mean, there's a thing about PubG. It's funny. I was talking to what I was talking with a client about this the other day and there's a thing about like in, there was a blue sky post yesterday.

1:47.2

I really liked, that was super smart and made something clear that I hadn't really thought about this way before.

1:51.8

But, like, Fortnite, people don't play Fortnite because, I mean, some people play Fortnite because they love Fortnite.

1:58.3

But Fortnite is a multiplayer competitive game that you can play with friends with wildly different skill levels. And it's a good, good way to just hang out. Right. Like you don't, you don't, it's not like Counterstrike where you're always doing something. You have to hold the right corner and it's high stress. And if somebody messes up, then it jacks up your entire team's game. It's not, it's pretty low stakes in terms of like competition.

2:22.1

Because with a, with a battle royale, like there's 25 other teams.

2:26.8

You expect to lose, right?

2:28.3

A winning is not the 50-50 outcome.

2:30.8

Winning is a one in 25 chance of happening on a four-player squad game.

2:35.8

And like a lot of cope games kind of work the same way, but not a lot of multiplayer games

2:40.7

do, like PVE games do. So it's, yeah, it's a, it's a weird, PubG had that same vibe for me.

2:47.0

Like, PubG was a game that had a lot of downtime. There was a lot of time to fart around and chat with your
