Every ORV fan shitting themself when Garnt brought it up. But genuinely as someone whose read the ENTIRE original 550+ chapter webNOVEL (and doesn't typically read korean webnovels/comics at all) its genuinely amazing, and so much more than what Garnt explained. It's so complicated and intense I honestly forget it starts so simply, meta doesnt begin to describe it. Also squid game was a horrible comparison, and fucking hilariously ironic for a joke about Dokja that's relevant later.

He's coming from the perspective of someone who didn't really try to understand it too. But i don't mean this as a harsh criticism to Garnt, everyone has their own tastes and there will be a bunch of really great games and other experiences that you'll enjoy but are out of your confort zone. In his view, randomly generated is stricly negative, which is a way to see it. The way i see, his main problem with it seemed to be not feeling like things are created in an intentional way, but there's intention in choosing and tweaking randomness. There's a vison of a desired experience in what choices you can and cannot make and how all of it affects gameplay and how much you can do to play around through experience and strategy. Maybe as long as Garnt can understand that he could enjoy it a bit more. Honestly, well designed rouguelikes feel like they're the easiest games to play, crisp gameplay and intuitive mechanics paired with the inconsequence of losing and trying again makes a very relaxed experience to me, he's doing the opposite of how i personally enjoy rouguelikes by overthinking...anything at all, just don't think, enjoy the game.
I think he's probably coming from the JRPG perspective where procedurely generated maps exist for the purpose of padding out content and are really simple and monotonous. It's different from a roguelike that specifically tries to take advantage of randomness to improve the experience. Like randomness in slay the spire exists as a thematic element as well where you are exploring the unknown. It plays into Balatro's randomness aspect of being a card game and roguelikes have to be randomly generated since you could just replay it. I think Garnt just hasn't played too many games outside of mainstream titles, especially since almost all good roguelikes are somewhat indie (other than maybe Hades, but even then it feels very indie-like, but maybe im just capping lol) He mainly just plays JRPGs (like Palaces in Persona 5 are so much better than Mementos which is randomly generated) In my opinion, there has to be consequence for procedurally generated games to be fun, and those games aren't for everyone. Like in RPGs in general, you only really gain and can't lose anything so a random dungeon isn't scary or tension inducing compared to a roguelike where it can be a run-ender. Like randomized Pokémon without nuzelocke is just boring, since there is no consequences, it becomes a normal game without the intention behind it. Randomness is a great way of adding tension and unknown into games, but it only works for games that have permanent loss like Roguelikes or want to capture discovery (like in Minecraft)
the ignorance joey has 😩 luv the guy but you don’t know anything about hip hop when you’re claiming this is the “biggest” rap beef in history. like niggas die all the time from rap beef, how don’t you know that and sat there and talked about it with pure confidence 💀

Grant recommending Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint is really good. While it shares some of the tropes of most novels, the story is presented in a way that gets you hooked. Worth a recommendation!
@@leepicgaymer5464 As a Taejun Pak fan, Lookism really doesn't have the narrative quality of ORV or many other series, and arguably has worse art as well. I think it's a B-tier manwha objectively speaking.
So a lot of people don't know this but the beef actually started with a Song called Control by Big Sean feat. Kendrick Lamar and in it Kendrick's verse was playful rivalry but Drake didn't like it so he started sneak dissing Kendrick for years until the last straw which was First person shooter then Future and metro boomin had beef with Drake and it lead to where we are today.
"I don't know what a Roguelike is." "Okay, well, tell me what you think it is and I'll tell you if you're close." "Uh...I don't know what a ROGUE is..." I'M DEAD! XDDD
The pain i felt when they didnt mention the binding of isaac while talking about rouge likes, one of the most influential games to come out of that genre
Omniscient reader's viewpoint mention 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥 1:43:09 Read the Light novel Grant it's fucking 10x. better because they haven't adapted. It yet on the webcomic, It's definitely a masterpiece. Shit goes hard in the LN. For context the webcomic only adapt about 15% of the LN. it's not even on it's final form. It's a one of a hell ride, it's 51% Story and 49% action. (And yes I'm a omniscient reader's viewpoint fan).
@@cennozoic5042 Yeah but wouldn't it be more great in a visible format. Like imagine if JJK was a light novel how much of an entertainment we would have lost.
@@AhmedinUA-cam. that's the thing, the novel makes it possible. there are many action scenes that the webtoon doesn't fully encapsulate just through drawing. the emotions, motivation, and pain that have led up to them aren't enough to be expressed just through visuals. the novel tells a different story, it makes you feel as if you were the one experiencing it.
yea man im a media major in uni and we covered kendrick vs drake when it was happening. it seems silly but its actually super interesting taking a look at how these things affect culture etc
ORV is actually really good. Basically Kim Dokja reads this ten year long novel that updates like everyday as his lifeline. However, when the novel ends, the main protagonist of the novel got a rather vague ending which Kim Dokja thought wasn’t the ‘good ending’ his protagonist deserved. Hence his main goal is the reach the end of the story with the best possible ending. I personally prefer the novel more despite how long it is as it better conveys emotion (and most importantly angst) and has some hecking good characterisation building and world building. You can read it with a shit ton and spoilers and not actually be ‘spoiled’ due to how the plot is built up. Anywho give a read please. I’m actually begging you to read it.
I personally prefer the manwha for a couple reasons: 1. I find manwha to be more expressive when the artist is good at drawing 2. I like the weekly hype/anticipation of a new chapter coming out 3. It's probably the manhwa with the best art 4. I'm a child that can't read chapter books because of my short attention span
@@realization8919 lmao I understand reason four but I literally read all of ORV in one month. The art of the manhwa is also really amazing, especially the action scenes. I think I prefer the novel because I’m a big literature nerd and I like how the style changes from kinda amateur-ish when Kim Dokja is still clearly a ‘reader’ and when he becomes a ‘character’. The wordplay and style is something hard to encapsulate in images. The experimentation with formatting is also great and I think inner thoughts and emotions are more poetically portrayed. The manhwa is absolutely hecking amazing tho and they somehow incorporated these difficult ideas from within the novel into well drawn and formatted pictures. I look forward to how the manhwa will continue to produce chapters that heighten the ORV experience through imagery.
Garnt is so picky with his games sometimes lmao "Exploring an underground cave in TOTK? I hate that!" "Random Generated Dungeon Crawler? I hate that!" "Soulslike with Dark Fantasy theme? I hate that!" "Whaling to get the limited 5 star on the next banner? Sign me up baby!"
Sounds like he is just scared of failing at a video game. He wants something safe and predictable. I can understand that life is scary and unpredictable, why bring that into your relaxing hobbies. But I think it’s a safe way to explore dealing with unpredictable situations! Garnt should try Slay the Spire!
Hearing Garnt trying to sell them on the regression trope was hilarious. I love that he somewhat succeeded with ORV because it is genuinely good compared to the mountains of slop manhwa and korean webnovels.
Omniscient Reader's Point of View is such a hard sell. I didn't like the synopsis or the concept either but the more you read it, the more you get invested in the entire thing. Highly recommended. Also, if Connor can stick to FFXIV all the way to Endwalker that'll be our proudest moment.
Speaking of hater energy; for years, and even now, I have read every new chapter of One Piece just to hate on it. Because if I dont, then the fans of that damn show at times go 'well, if you had read the newest development, then you'd know it's peak!' and that frustrates me.
Connor: Potential biggest monkey moment for paypal to wrong E-Mail Also Connor: Potential biggest chad for helping stranger, even walked them to Tokyo Station exit that wasn't even his destination station.
Heavily agree on Garnt's recommendation of ORV, it's one of the only "regression" webtoons that I think is actually top tier. It does a good job of taking the standard regression trope and doing it a different way that ends up working really well. It's also such a great series to binge because those first couple of chapters immerse you into the story so hard you end up flying through the series. Hopefully it gets an anime adaptation sometime soon because that series really deserves a good one.
It's funny to hear Garn'ts opinion about webcomics/toons compared to manga, because I often honestly think the exact opposite. So much Japanese manga is really generic and uninspired, while Korean webcomics often show a lot more maturity and creativity. Not to say that those do not have cliches, and there are a lot of bad ones, definitely, but the overall level of quality appears higher to me.
IDK, to me, the average art quality is so much higher in manwha but the general quality of the story is usually a bit lower. I guess the difference is that I've gobbled up so much manhwa that the same tropes show up 20 series in a row sometimes.
As someone who’s typical consumption of manga has been almost entirely replaced by manhwa now, that manhwa segment was so frustrating to listen to, lol
I read all. The manga that are great are really great but they take forever to release. The weekly manga are usually pretty bad and the weekly manhwa are a bit more entertaining
Biggest disservice they ever did to soul leveling was they did nothing but the f****** pre-log ... , and and also killed momentum because of a damn rehash in the middle of the climb to finale of the prologue
Connor, I hope you read this. the relevance of this beef is not just petty fight. It is a cultural thing. Kendrick has been a person who has put his black experience upfront in his music for so long. He has been the voice of so many people that were born in the same situation as him or worse. Drake has been the opposite, he came from affluent background and instead of just expressing his life through his music. He has just been hijacking black culture while not ever being a part of it. A lot of rap songs, at least in the early days, have violent theme in them not because they are just black(which you hear a lot of racist people say) but because thats what they lived through, they are just telling you about their experiences. And kendrick has always sneak dissed drake because of this and some other personal stuff. But now even black people who didnt rationalize why they do not vibe with drake are now realizing why we do not vibe with him, because he has been a colonizer. I dont know if you need a mainstream white approval for kendrick but if you do, he has won a Pulitzer prize. And also for why this hasn't gone into law enforcements, it is because of the distrust we have of the police system. Women and minorities have always taken the L when it comes to being served by law enforcements. The concept of community policing in america comes from black neighborhoods. And kendrick was born in it and his experience tells him to not trust the police, which he shouldn't imo because we have seen them turn a blind eye to so many public figures doing horrible shit.
1:43:04 Yes!!! Omniscient Reader is such a good one! It's one of the only ones I kept reading Pro tip avoid the comments because it's half full of people going "erm actually in the novel.." those people are irritating to me but other than that I adore this series

Can we have a "connor thought this story has been said before on the pod" counter?
1:50:00 Connor - "haven't played any of the games, show is good" Garnt 5sec after - "So did you played any games?"
your time stamp is wrong
He pulled a Sidney 😂
THIS IS THE FASTEST IVE EVER OPENED AN EPISODE
Honestly same
Same
Bro, I read "FATTEST"
Have a wonderful day 👍
Why?
Grant recommending Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint is really good. While it shares some of the tropes of most novels, the story is presented in a way that gets you hooked.
Worth a recommendation!
Lookism is something he really should have recommended or read if he hasn't, even it's not related to the regression topic still a great Webcomic
@@leepicgaymer5464 As a Taejun Pak fan, Lookism really doesn't have the narrative quality of ORV or many other series, and arguably has worse art as well. I think it's a B-tier manwha objectively speaking.
“It’s like Castlevania we just don’t have Dracula.”
When did the UK get rid of the bloodsucking tories?
Soon brother, soon.
Glad to see Connor being responsible with money as always😭
"A Stepmother Märchen" is GOATED
i,e. Fantasy of a Stepmother
FR it’s written so well with complex characters
YES!!!! i love the drama its absolutely delicious
1:12:39 square enix really said "welsh people aren't real" 😭😭
21:45
As someone who has listened to every Trash Taste episode, most of them TWICE or more
I am 100% certain he never told this story
Agreed
So a lot of people don't know this but the beef actually started with a Song called Control by Big Sean feat. Kendrick Lamar and in it Kendrick's verse was playful rivalry but Drake didn't like it so he started sneak dissing Kendrick for years until the last straw which was First person shooter then Future and metro boomin had beef with Drake and it lead to where we are today.
The way they describe ORV made me cringe but still got me excited to see that the story is getting so popular
Starting off season 5 with a BANGER boys
Nah man it’s season 2 part 4
Garnt gives off so much favorite child energy that even the company card is giving him "free" stuff
"I don't know what a Roguelike is."
"Okay, well, tell me what you think it is and I'll tell you if you're close."
"Uh...I don't know what a ROGUE is..."
I'M DEAD! XDDD
joey talking about recent anime:
joey talking about the rap beef: 🤬😡🙁😙😣🙁🤓
Garnt: “so it’s just regression” 1:24:49
Garnt really is in his regression brainrot phase😭
Team: “we like to gatekeep”
Also team: *proceeds to inform everyone to go to the better airport*
Bars and food joints are for fun - dealing with a shitty airport is massive inconvenience. The scale is way different.
they gatekeep when it benefits them
@@ThePatxiao yea no shit
@@ThePatxiaooh really? I thought they gatekeep to make things worse for them.
@@zoinksscoob6523are you the bar owner 💀
The pain i felt when they didnt mention the binding of isaac while talking about rouge likes, one of the most influential games to come out of that genre
Omniscient reader's viewpoint mention 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥 1:43:09
Read the Light novel Grant it's fucking 10x. better because they haven't adapted. It yet on the webcomic,
It's definitely a masterpiece. Shit goes hard in the LN.
For context the webcomic only adapt about 15% of the LN. it's not even on it's final form.
It's a one of a hell ride, it's 51% Story and 49% action.
(And yes I'm a omniscient reader's viewpoint fan).
How can i feel the 49% of the action through words.
@@AhmedinUA-cam. as a wise sponge once said "IMAGINATION"
@@cennozoic5042 Yeah but wouldn't it be more great in a visible format. Like imagine if JJK was a light novel how much of an entertainment we would have lost.
51 49
@@AhmedinUA-cam. that's the thing, the novel makes it possible. there are many action scenes that the webtoon doesn't fully encapsulate just through drawing. the emotions, motivation, and pain that have led up to them aren't enough to be expressed just through visuals. the novel tells a different story, it makes you feel as if you were the one experiencing it.
This is the most round way Garnt did to make Joey to watch Arcane lmao
Having played all of Trails and FFXIV, I can say with absolute certainty that Garnt will fall in love with FFXIV if/when he continues. Guaranteed.
This is Joey's first rap beef because this is vanilla compare to back in the day.
Connor just being everyone's adopted son at min 28.
I have a feeling this episode will contain a nomination for the most saltiest moment for the next awards...
And most monke moment with Connor sending money to a random Joey
Garnt pulling a fast one on Joey AND Connor is too fucking funny
Garnt hyping up bread? What bizzaro world did I just walk into?
Garnt saying "Why is it good?" about Fallout is how I feel anytime anyone says it's good cause no one can give details lol
Well. We are at a point where there is more bad Fallout content than good. So y'know
yea man im a media major in uni and we covered kendrick vs drake when it was happening. it seems silly but its actually super interesting taking a look at how these things affect culture etc
Garnt: "Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint!"
Joey: "I sleep"
Garnt: "It's kinda like Log Horizon --"
Joey: "Real shit???"
man when garnt said omniscient reader during the webtoon section i was popping off that shit is so good
I don't know if they mention it, but AAA roguelite game gotta be RETURNAL. Man returnal is soooo goooddd
ORV is actually really good. Basically Kim Dokja reads this ten year long novel that updates like everyday as his lifeline. However, when the novel ends, the main protagonist of the novel got a rather vague ending which Kim Dokja thought wasn’t the ‘good ending’ his protagonist deserved. Hence his main goal is the reach the end of the story with the best possible ending. I personally prefer the novel more despite how long it is as it better conveys emotion (and most importantly angst) and has some hecking good characterisation building and world building. You can read it with a shit ton and spoilers and not actually be ‘spoiled’ due to how the plot is built up. Anywho give a read please. I’m actually begging you to read it.
There are a lot of other stuff like the themes and allusions that are like really good but I’ll spare you from my incessant yapping.
I personally prefer the manwha for a couple reasons:
1. I find manwha to be more expressive when the artist is good at drawing
2. I like the weekly hype/anticipation of a new chapter coming out
3. It's probably the manhwa with the best art
4. I'm a child that can't read chapter books because of my short attention span
@@realization8919 lmao I understand reason four but I literally read all of ORV in one month. The art of the manhwa is also really amazing, especially the action scenes. I think I prefer the novel because I’m a big literature nerd and I like how the style changes from kinda amateur-ish when Kim Dokja is still clearly a ‘reader’ and when he becomes a ‘character’. The wordplay and style is something hard to encapsulate in images. The experimentation with formatting is also great and I think inner thoughts and emotions are more poetically portrayed. The manhwa is absolutely hecking amazing tho and they somehow incorporated these difficult ideas from within the novel into well drawn and formatted pictures. I look forward to how the manhwa will continue to produce chapters that heighten the ORV experience through imagery.
@@sir_mustache8555u should read lord of the mysteries.
"A squid-like story" I mean... Squid-ja-
Always nice hearing the boys yapping every Saturday morning
Absolutely true
They should do a Manhwa/Manhua episode would to see what Conner thinks about cultivation
Someone tell the gang about the 50 & Ja Rule beef, or 2Pac vs Biggie. Drake & Kendrick was Sesame Street compared to them. 😂
Yeah, rap beefs were *definitely* unhinged back in the day…
Can't believe we already have a contender for most saltiest moment this episode,.. Connor realising he can't place orders on amazon, damn.
Rounding out the Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef with Trash Taste is so wild 😂
54:00 This reminds me of the infamous Rush-E Fanchen incident. When the hater turns out to be the ridiculously powerful villain.
Garnt is so picky with his games sometimes lmao
"Exploring an underground cave in TOTK? I hate that!"
"Random Generated Dungeon Crawler? I hate that!"
"Soulslike with Dark Fantasy theme? I hate that!"
"Whaling to get the limited 5 star on the next banner? Sign me up baby!"
Makes it seem like he just doesn't like games but has somehow gaslit himself into thinking he does.
What you just describe is called preference.
Brainrot enjoyer innit?
@@NateLeonhart yeah he is gaslit by gamer Conner
Sounds like he is just scared of failing at a video game. He wants something safe and predictable. I can understand that life is scary and unpredictable, why bring that into your relaxing hobbies. But I think it’s a safe way to explore dealing with unpredictable situations! Garnt should try Slay the Spire!
An ORV call-out in Trash Taste... It's like my two favourite worlds have collided.
Please give ORV a read folks!
Hearing Garnt trying to sell them on the regression trope was hilarious. I love that he somewhat succeeded with ORV because it is genuinely good compared to the mountains of slop manhwa and korean webnovels.
Omniscient Reader's Point of View is such a hard sell. I didn't like the synopsis or the concept either but the more you read it, the more you get invested in the entire thing. Highly recommended. Also, if Connor can stick to FFXIV all the way to Endwalker that'll be our proudest moment.
Connor helping the old couple was so wholesome
52:00 Someone commented, “J Cole probably off in a field somewhere listening to that Andre 3000 flute album.” 😂 That thread was gold.
honestly it’s adorable to see garnt invested in rap beef. there’s a lot of interesting history and music he might enjoy now.
12:27 Those are always the best restaurants, especially if it's barbecue and _especially_ if they're in there by 6AM to start cooking the meat.
Speaking of hater energy; for years, and even now, I have read every new chapter of One Piece just to hate on it. Because if I dont, then the fans of that damn show at times go 'well, if you had read the newest development, then you'd know it's peak!' and that frustrates me.
That laugh at 9:30 was funny af lol HAE HAE HAE HAE HAE HAE
Connor: Potential biggest monkey moment for paypal to wrong E-Mail
Also Connor: Potential biggest chad for helping stranger, even walked them to Tokyo Station exit that wasn't even his destination station.
Come on Joey, Kendrick no music since 2020? Big steppers released in May 2022!
Of course Joey thinks people saying “you only hate it cuz it’s popular is a baby take” because he’s made that his trademark lmaooo
Heavily agree on Garnt's recommendation of ORV, it's one of the only "regression" webtoons that I think is actually top tier. It does a good job of taking the standard regression trope and doing it a different way that ends up working really well. It's also such a great series to binge because those first couple of chapters immerse you into the story so hard you end up flying through the series. Hopefully it gets an anime adaptation sometime soon because that series really deserves a good one.
If food is too good from a regular shop.
My mind: Weed
1:41:08 not too much on The Fantasie of a Stepmother, i actually loved that one 😭😭
It's funny to hear Garn'ts opinion about webcomics/toons compared to manga, because I often honestly think the exact opposite. So much Japanese manga is really generic and uninspired, while Korean webcomics often show a lot more maturity and creativity. Not to say that those do not have cliches, and there are a lot of bad ones, definitely, but the overall level of quality appears higher to me.
IDK, to me, the average art quality is so much higher in manwha but the general quality of the story is usually a bit lower. I guess the difference is that I've gobbled up so much manhwa that the same tropes show up 20 series in a row sometimes.
Garnt guiding Connor through explaining fall out felt like a therapy session 💀
The struggles of Mogstation are an experience every FFXIV player must go through, it’s like a rite of passage at this point.
Honest question, why are Square doing this? This honestly put me off from buying & subbing
@@Iluvatar196 Japanese web developers I guess
Garnt: "Sounds like fear and hunger"
*Me who was listening to this whole playing fear and hunger:* ☠☠
As someone who’s typical consumption of manga has been almost entirely replaced by manhwa now, that manhwa segment was so frustrating to listen to, lol
I read all.
The manga that are great are really great but they take forever to release.
The weekly manga are usually pretty bad and the weekly manhwa are a bit more entertaining
same (I don't agree with the frustrating part, but the section is a little inaccurate)
Biggest disservice they ever did to soul leveling was they did nothing but the f****** pre-log ... , and and also killed momentum because of a damn rehash in the middle of the climb to finale of the prologue
I heard it was because one of the main VAs got COVID or something, but yeah, they should've just had a hiatus or something instead.
Connor, I hope you read this. the relevance of this beef is not just petty fight. It is a cultural thing. Kendrick has been a person who has put his black experience upfront in his music for so long. He has been the voice of so many people that were born in the same situation as him or worse. Drake has been the opposite, he came from affluent background and instead of just expressing his life through his music. He has just been hijacking black culture while not ever being a part of it. A lot of rap songs, at least in the early days, have violent theme in them not because they are just black(which you hear a lot of racist people say) but because thats what they lived through, they are just telling you about their experiences. And kendrick has always sneak dissed drake because of this and some other personal stuff. But now even black people who didnt rationalize why they do not vibe with drake are now realizing why we do not vibe with him, because he has been a colonizer. I dont know if you need a mainstream white approval for kendrick but if you do, he has won a Pulitzer prize. And also for why this hasn't gone into law enforcements, it is because of the distrust we have of the police system. Women and minorities have always taken the L when it comes to being served by law enforcements. The concept of community policing in america comes from black neighborhoods. And kendrick was born in it and his experience tells him to not trust the police, which he shouldn't imo because we have seen them turn a blind eye to so many public figures doing horrible shit.
Connor is the whitest man in Japan. Expecting him to care or appreciate any of this is a lost cause.
Connor: perfectly recollects bad advice he’s given from years ago about public transit
Also Connor: “you’ve already told that story on TT”
1:43:04
Yes!!! Omniscient Reader is such a good one!
It's one of the only ones I kept reading
Pro tip avoid the comments because it's half full of people going "erm actually in the novel.." those people are irritating to me but other than that I adore this series
1:49:30
BRO
don't diss solo leveling 😢
I read them alongside each other before the anime even came out for solo leveling and the beginning is a little boring on purpose so you can grow to appreciate the psychological world afterwords.
BOTH deserve a chance
Omniscient Reader is still on going that's all
It sucks because I've been mentioning omniscient reader in the comments for a while and they just now learning about it lol
@@ViktorErikFade fr. orv is that one thing that you want everyone to know but at the same time want to gate keep. overall orv is a must read 51/49 recommended
Thank you for always providing fun conversations and laughs to listen to in hard times. You guys are awesome, funny, and worked hard to get to this point in your careers.
im so happy garnt likes ORV bruhhh as a novel reader im super excited to see how webtoon only fans will react to the upcoming arc! defo will be very fun and cool! 😄
Can't wait to see the wings
Joey, you forgot that Drake's diss to Kendrick that was actually in response to what he said; Push-Ups, and then Kendrick's Euphoria.
So the order goes like this:
First Person Shooter --> Like That --> Push Ups --> Euphoria --> Family Matters --> Meet The Grahams --> Not Like Us --> The Heart Part 6
