I've seen fun you people wouldn't believe.
Tiki torches on fire off the summit of Kilauea.
I watched disco balls glitter in the dark near the Brandenburg Gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like crowds in rain.

Time to sleep.

pat mentioned the defunctland video before woolie retook control of the conversation, and I have to recommend that one as well. defunctland is one of the best channels on youtube.

Thanks, just watched this and it's also very good, covers a few things that weren't in the documentary too. The big thing it's lacking in comparison is interviews from previous guests and staff.

Imagine hitting an enemy. Imagine punching them and reducing their health to 0 and believing that makes you the victor. What foolishness.

I don't think he did. But he killed gostoc anyways cause he wanted access to his shop again.

TBH I didn't notice that.

Yeah, I'm joking about Snailborne. Here's what really happened.

Caught Woolie's Elden Ring stream for the first time. He found a chest, stood in front of it with his shield up discussing if it was safe, checked the bloodstains and examined why they died, walked around the corners to see if any enemies were coming, then opened the chest. Did he loot it? No, no. He walked around the corners again with his shield up, waiting for any enemies to appear. After a few moments, he looted it.

Shortly after, when he defeated a boss in the dungeon, he recorded a replay and watched it multiple times to dissect why he healed when he drank from his flask.

Snailborne never die.

YouTube just got to this, he was confused because he mashed the button and double sipped. Still nuts though.

Worse in my opinion was when he found some armor he liked that wasn't the loving barbarian starter set but then switched back. I know doing poo poo for aesthetics is basically his Achilles heel, but I kinda wonder if he remembers it's a starter set and that's why the numbers on new poo poo almost always look better. I guess it doesn't matter too much, at least he's not still ignoring vigor.

Armor basically doesn't matter at all in Elden Ring so that's a non-problem.

It's fine.
Don't worry about it.
Woolie and Pat always fixate on the granular differences in outfit defenses in the Soulsborne games. Like even during the Bloodborne playthrough they only changed when something looked so rad to them that they could ignore the defense changes, but even then they'd agonize over incremental differences before deciding to deal with it.

And they also kept selling all the armors they weren't using, leading to them selling the #iconic Bloodborne hunter set lol.

Lol at Woolie being demoralized as he beat the Godskin apostle with the Moonveil. I mean, he's been pumping points into INT, of course the Moonveil is going to pack a punch.

Didn't Woolie say he dropped the Moonveil on last week's podcast?

Yes, but in the most recent stream, he had to relied on it to get past the Knights of Jars and the Godskin Apostle. The Caestus wasn't quite cutting it.

This topic and even my point has probably been said in this thread 100 times, buttfuck it.

I liked LP Liam, but Podcast Liam was the member who would annoy me both the most and the worst. He was very knowledgeable and very funny out of nowhere and he seemed like a genuinely pure person. In hindsight, overall he was probably my favorite member?? But I 100% can see why people didn't like him at all on the podcast. Hell a lot times I didn't either much really. Either way I hope he's out there somewhere now happy and kicking life's rear end.

E: I'm not gonna speculate on Pat and Liam's friendship (which I know nothing about to begin with), but it didn't help that Pat was the polar opposite of Liam's voice on the podcast. All of the times Liam backed himself into a corner and sounded like he was going to cry were probably because of Pat lol.

I actually didn't know that. It's not surprising in the slightest.

Also Liam was pretty young back when the podcast started, right? He was like 21 or something? Sorry if this has been done a million times hahah, but I haven't thought about this stuff in so long that it's fun to think about all this time later. Pat really was Liam's kryptonite though.
