What are you playing like right now, Jason? When you go before you go to bed or like I am working through the Oblivion remaster, actually. I played it as a kid and- I think I played it after playing Skyrim and- I got really hung up with the the quality of life improvements that Skyrim had over Oblivion and it also kept crashing on me. So, actually getting to play through Oblivion, which I think has a much stronger story right now, has been quite the treat because now it's just now it's really pretty and, it's the right amount of jank. Uh do you know what kind of character I'm I'm running, Muel? Oh, no. I'm playing as a Argonian and I have not picked up a single weapon. Oh, yeah. My my my unarmed is at like 70 out of 100. And I'm just beating the crap out of everyone. It's It's so much fun. Oh, I'm still holding out hope for a Morowind remake. See you, Jason. Oh, wait. Who knows? Honestly, as a kid, I was 25 when it released. I How old are you, Jason? Me? Yeah, I'm 26. 26 this year? Uh, 27 this year. What's your birth month? I should know this. Uh, November. That's from me. Oh, okay. Oh, yeah. We're both autumn kids. I remember, actually. We what topping mess with rat reggu? I don't know if I'm that far yet, Marv. I'm sorry. I don't I don't get the reference. I believe it's a blast to play again. See, it is. Um, it's really unfortunate that Claire Obscure came in and, at least for me dunked all over it and, cuz- I Yeah, believe but also I've had I've had so much like big game release hype that I, the hype I had so much hype for big games that I was waiting for for a while. Mons onto the Wilds was one of them. Metaphor Refantasia was one of them. Um, Oblivion was like something I would probably dabble in if I had the energy and I wasn't waiting for other stuff. and so on. But whenever these things release, I just don't I just don't I can't muster the energy to get into them. Big games are too big at the moment. Wondering if Yeah, Oblivion is still Oblivion in both good and bad. Yeah, it it it it really is like the right way to remaster a game. [Music] really really really good with faith.
