0:00.0	This is a D6 generation PEP, bite-sized content for a busy gamer, sometimes featuring Craig,
0:19.1	sometimes featuring Russ.
0:21.0	Hey, what about me?
0:23.3	Oh yeah, and sometimes featuring Raph, ah, listeners, welcome back.
0:44.1	Grape Hollywood Granger here.
0:45.3	You're listening to The Hollywood Minute Part 2 with Ryan Morency.
0:49.1	And we're going to wrap up our discussion of open world sandbox survival games.
0:55.6	And then we're going to move into the MMO known as Final Fantasy 14 because Ryan and I are also both playing that. We have some
1:00.8	interesting observations on that, I think. So I think we were talking about, we're wrapping it up,
1:05.8	was the ability to port characters over that I'll continue V rising in my own know, if or when the game allows me to have somebody come in and help me kill a boss, I think, much like you can do in core keeper because it is a good game. And I wanted to mention too in segment one. What I really liked was I would call it like building light. I'm not a huge base builder. And what I loved about it was it was like, build a wall.

2:07.5	something like that I liked the simplicity of v rising where they took a lot of the excess building
2:16.2	out to streamline it but the end product still looked really
2:20.9	cool. You could still really customize it, right? So like my castle didn't look like your castle.
2:25.5	I could put different wall textures on it, different floor textures on it, but it wasn't such
