I'm kind of offended that Peace Walker seems to have skipped out on a robot named "Imago".

This is like, a loving month late but I just found out today, "Imago" is the Mammal Pod's codename. The other AIs are just called by their pod's codename, but Peace Walker has two of them :v:

GW-Pupa-5000 - Pupa
TJ-Chrysalis-6000 - Chrysalis (you can actually hear it say it's full name in the first level when it's sent to go kidnap Amanda)
TR-Cocoon-7000 - Cocoon
AL-Aurelia-8000 - Peace Walker's Reptile Pod
BS-Imago-9000 - Peace Walker's Mammal Pod

I'm betting Strangelove mentions this stuff in a cassette we haven't listened to yet, I just found this stuff out from research. Also frankly when we listen to tapes, I'm more interested in hearing what Cecile says than Strangelove.

I preferred Chloe because I tend to gravitate towards whoever has the most Lloyd-like moveset, so Chloe in Legendia, Guy in Abyss, Alvin in Xilia, etc. That said I never finished Legendia because the character quests were just SO LONG. Like I'm unsure which is the longer game between Legendia and Abyss.

Related to Peace Walker content: by "turn on you" don't you mean "unleashed a flood of gifs"?

If you want to see the storm of panda pictures, they're still in the image tab in the stream chat :v: there were way too many to put into the episode itself.

I do get to go see red pandas at my zoo! At the end of the month when I'm finished with this year of grad school I will be celebrating by going to see them here in Nashville. I need to make a trip to the Knoxville zoo because apparently they have had more baby red panda births than any other zoo and are the 'red panda capital of the world' and all newborn cubs in US zoos trace their ancestry to Knoxville's zoo. If you two ever want to come down to visit I will take you on a Let's Panda adventure.

In my defense, gently caress Zadornov :colbert: For anyone curious, the reason Grace couldn't fulton Zadornov is because he wasn't in a pacified state. He still needed to be either tranqed, smacked with a rifle, or held up. Or shot gratuitously but Miller didn't like that much.

We temporarily suspended the drinking game for Peace Walker, mainly because we played it blind and I don't trust Grace at all, but it'll be back for Phantom Pain. I'll keep an eye out though, I'm always down to try new ciders :v:

I'll admit I love it every time you switch between yelling that whatever Grace is doing is a warcrime, and just firing rockets and machineguns at people even after Grace knocked them unconscious.

To be fair, gently caress snipers.

Let's Play Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker Episode 31 - Dan And Grace Fight Our Giant loving Robot

Miller I don't loving know what esoteric-rear end setup you have with these base defense weapons but apparently every strut she's on is assailable and also not assailable at the same time. Anyone about to complain that I did it wrong, notice that I did it 100% correct the first time, and Miller told me to gently caress off. Therefore I assumed I did it incorrectly and reverted to just smashing poo poo up manually. :colbert:

Something I'm proud of is that Grace immediately gunned for the Radome too :v: We all learned from REX

This is genuinely one of my favourite Metal Gear battles, and it burns me up inside that the stream lagged during one of the most crucial moments.

Wait, the GZ level is "tiny"? It seemed huge by MGS standards and compared to the types of games I play. Guess the TPP level(s) will blow me away?

Strange to see the tagging mechanic show up at the very very end of PW and then it's common from here out. Was that final battle really the only instance in which it shows up in PW?

There's a few things about GZ that bother me mechanics-wise.

1) The enemy marker remains the same color regardless of if they're pacified or not, and only shows if they're KO'd or asleep.
2) Enemies in GZ either take an extraordinarily long time to wake up from sleep or just don't at all. I've only ever seen an enemy wake up from being KO'd by CQC.
3) It's weird going from infinite-suppressor dart gun in GZ to crappy tiny-suppressor tranq gun in TPP.

Otherwise, it was a neat experience. Also, Dan, here's your reward for completing Ground Zeroes' main story. Maybe you can use it as the new red_panda_twittering.wav or for #yoloswag nonsense later, but all the same, I couldn't wait until MGSV to show this one. I can wait until MGSV to show off the even better remix though.

Camp Omega is 'tiny' for a single game I mean :v: Marking WAS in Peace Walker, but it was such a pain to do that we never bothered. It's also not as useful since the maps are a lot tinier than in GZ and PP.

Ground Zeroes has uh, issues with draw distance sometimes. I don't remember them being quite this bad, or existing in Phantom Pain.

I sprinted directly to the car the first guy gets into, shotgun him and get rid of his buddy, sprint to the gate where the other guy shows up, shotgun him as well, then steal his car and get out before anyone can process what happened.
