I love these Gamesfest streams, we always learn about the things that really annoy Mike. Salty Mike is an odd treat. Also, the whole gang had strong Elder Millennial energy today. My people. 😂
I was fully vibing with Mike's energy the whole livestream. From hating numbers coming out, to isometric perspectives, to being excited about Zombie Mudrunners, even to excusing FF7's numbers coming out.
Alright, gave the _Lies of P_ demo a whirl, and it's...pretty neat! There's a lot to dissect regarding the way it adapts the typical From Software mechanics, sure (it feels like it incentivises blocking, despite seemingly borrowing more tricks from _Bloodborne's_ fast-paced, side-step-based playbook), but it _feels_ good to play, it runs smoothly, and I'm genuinely interested to learn more about its additional mechanical flourishes (buffing as a skill, instead of item-based, what difference a different arm would bring, and so on). Not fully bought into its style as a work of fiction and/or adaptation - _of course_ their version of Jiminy is called Gemini - but, all in all, the demo was a competent treat. The full game'd better have good fashion, though...
I did a double take when they wished Porsche a happy 75th birthday. While I was trying to remember what year it is I read on screen 1948-2023. I'm assuming that's when they started manufacturing their own cars because as everyone knows they were involved with a famous car for a certain mustachioed Austrian in the 30's...
Mike mentioned that sone people where really upset about him being a little jokey mean in this and i just wanted to say how funny and wonderfully charming i thought it was. So while i understand changing it up for the next year i did want to make sure Mike knew that some of us really did enjoy this approach as well
28:30 Mike isn't wrong to ask "What was Remnant 1", but the comment later about it looking shooty and co-op-y is absolutely correct. The first game was really good, a solid 7/10 game,flew under a lot of people's radars, but the sequel looks like they took seriously all the criticism the first one got and improved it drastically. I would absolutely love to watch you guys play Remnant 2 on the channel!
Ah this Remnant 2 reaction hurt a bit lol. I'm sooo looking forward to this game!! At least Jane made it to Warm. If only it had someone that looked like Timothy Chalamet in it!
It was one of the few games in the show that didn't look like another game in the show, and they were all like, meh... I hope it's as good as it looks. Very atmospheric.
In the live, I said I was most excited for MK1… but in thinking about it more, I think I’m most excited for Prince of Persia. I loved Sands of Time when it came out, but the games after weren’t quite as good to me, and the one on PS3 with the cell shaded graphics crashed when I got to a certain point, so I never properly finished that one. All that to say, I’m excited to see a game I loved go back to its roots for a new story.
Calling it now. Lies of Pi will have a system like humanity where beating bosses and stuff like that makes him more human, but dying will make him more puppet
Mikes dislikes so far: -Isometric -Numbers coming out of people -Anime -Playing as a little goblin guy -Day of the Devs (because he thinks they will all be isometric) -MMOs Will update as further details come in (Edit: all in good fun, no hate here)
Regarding Crash Team Rumble: I played the beta, and had a BLAST! I had my suspicions, but being able to try it has swayed A TON of people including me into liking it!
Man I have never been very good at dbd but damn I would play the hell out of that game just to play as Nicolas Cage ♡ I could just sit and listen to him talk about video games all day ♡
(Womble music starts) Upper cut, Spin kick, Fa ta la ty The Wombles of Mortal Wombat are we, Using our fists to break your spine, Don't tell Uncle Bulgaria cause it may be a crime.
Man Mike negative vibe this stream 😮 Like watching a film with a friend who's read the book when you've not . And all they do is complain about it not being as good as the book lol Guess he was saving all his positivity for FF7R
After watching this stream I went back and watched Outside Xbox play Snowrunner, and fairly early in the stream they mention that the developers previously made World War Z, and they start talking about how they want Zombie DLC for Snowrunner….a few years later we don’t get DLC, we get a complete game.
Maybe it’s a timing thing, but these always show up at the best times. Thank you guys for covering this. It’s like my best friends are in the same room at a release party.
Mike has already forgotten about Fallout 76 & Redfall from the sounds, haha! I'm not sure just what to expect from Bethesda anymore, sadly. High hopes but low expectations for both Starfield & the next Elder Scrolls game.
So what I'm taking from Luke's comments on Prince of Persia is that if I remember the original, and Another World and Flashback when they originally came out, and I was an adult, then I might as well crawl into my coffin "A million years ago"? Dearie me
Ha, been playing PoE since 2013. Came out around the time of Diablo 3 but it was free to play and so much better. I don't see Diablo 4 being better than PoE or PoE 2. Time will tell.
it kinda disappointing that the only stuff that excited me was stuff I already knew about. Seeing a date on Palworld was the highlight of the Fest for me, but I mean it's been on my Steam wishlist for well over a year now so...
Thats a fair reaction. I got a little annoyed as well. A bit difficult to get excited for upcoming games if people are constantly criticizing it in the background..
@@whenallelsfails21 I'd leave that for whoever is watching to decide. Even setting aside the quality of the games it is really annoying to hear someone voice their distaste for every other title that pops up. Feels like watching the stream with a grumpy grandad who doesn't get anything that's being shown on screen and hates all of it.
I'm with Mike when it comes to not liking isometric games. Remnant II is the one I'm most excited for. I really enjoyed what I've played of the first one. It's 3 player co-op, but the co-op is entirely optional and not really necessary at all. I think there's a boss or two that's awkward to deal with solo, but it's not impossible. It's a really cool, underrated game. The guns feel pretty satisfying as well. Remnant II is just about the only one I'm excited for. Yes, Ellen! When I saw it I immediately got BioShock Infinite vibes from it on top of the Bloodborne vibes I already had. I was looking forward to Lies of P, but I'm less excited for it after the new trailer for some reason. Not really sure why. I'm going to give the demo a try though. I have some Souls fatigue. I'm working to finish DS3 and I so just want to be done with the game at this point. I want to move onto Sekiro for a slight change of pace with focusing on parries and everything with Sekiro. That and try out other games too.
Some days when things go wrong, life biting you. Trying to dodge the darkness that seems to follow. I listen to Ellens laugh and the feel that good she brings. Sometimes its just a simple joy to lift the soul.
Thank you Outside Xbox and Xtra for this epic reaction stream to such an epic event such as this, games are certainly back people and they are coming at us thick and fast. Yes to summer gaming everyone, yeah! (LA Knight Style)
Why no one on the OX team knows or cares about the Path of Exile 2 (or the original PoE as well)??? Its a better and free to play Diablo! I was hoping you will play it when the PoE2 comes out but now... just try it out, it will be fun i bet (if its anything like the first game :)).
Would love to watch Luke or Ellen or Mike or Andy or hell, even Jane, play the Lies of P demo. I've just finished it. Feels quite Bloodborne-like, but a bit less smooth. Love the aesthetics and the lore seems interesting though I don't know much about the original Pinnochio story.
I enjoy ProZD but also find myself in the group of people who are like “what is the channel called?” When Mike was like but who is it I realized I didn’t actually remember the channel.
Mike: this looks the same as everything else in that genre. also mike: i like racing games
Drinking game for those on VOD, drink every time Mike says “what’s this?!”
Do you want to give people alcohol poisoning?
Or "cold!" 😂 but all nothing compared to him on Ellen's Alien Isolation stream "Motion tracker!!" if you drink to that it will kill you!
Or I'm not into that.
@@joeking1956Mike hates ghosts and MAGIC lol
Mike sounding like a grandpa 😂
I love how games are back is now a catch phrase for the whole crew and how little proud Luke is about it
I loved the hot takes from field reporter Andy
I dunno... it's missing something. Something to preface the commentary pertaining to attire. A fashion intro, if you will.
I agree, except the Venom one. The suit looks fine 😅
Stream starts at 0:00, turns out! Lies of P, FF7R, and Spider-Man 2 look great!
17:34 for Andy's fashion judging (also see 47:58) (also also see see 1:14:51)
Serious cranky dad energy from Mike in this love it :D especially the "Ellen!" during the FF7 bit :D
1:23:21
The next day Mike received a mysterious letter in his mail:
*"King Dragon sends his regards."*
I love these Gamesfest streams, we always learn about the things that really annoy Mike. Salty Mike is an odd treat.
Also, the whole gang had strong Elder Millennial energy today. My people. 😂
I was fully vibing with Mike's energy the whole livestream. From hating numbers coming out, to isometric perspectives, to being excited about Zombie Mudrunners, even to excusing FF7's numbers coming out.
Nic Cage "[...] it took me nothing but a split second to say 'yes!' [to be in Dead by Daylight]"
WHEN DO YOU EVER SAY 'NO' NICHOLAS? WHEN??!!
I don't think anyone mentioned, but ProZD was in a Dicebreaker video as well.. I think it was 'Codenames', and he was typically hilarious
My hype meter is hot for Mortal Wombat

It’s 75 years since they got their general operating permit and started producing sports cars 🙂
Wow Mike shitting on isometric. It's for people like me who get motion sick, Mike, let me keep my isometric non nausea inducing games please D:

I feel so seen by Jane wanting a DA Dreadwolf trailer, us BioWare fans are starving and dehydrated
Under the waves deserves more hype.
It was one of the few games in the show that didn't look like another game in the show, and they were all like, meh... I hope it's as good as it looks. Very atmospheric.
Mike's likes: Race simulation. Everything else: what's this!?, oh Sam Lake!

I loved the return of Ox's journalism and divided opinions!

Mike only likes 2nd perspective racing games where you have the point of view of the road as the car you control drives over it.
Regarding Crash Team Rumble:
I played the beta, and had a BLAST! I had my suspicions, but being able to try it has swayed A TON of people including me into liking it!
Man I have never been very good at dbd but damn I would play the hell out of that game just to play as Nicolas Cage ♡

So close to 1 million subscribers and Luke having to play Kingdoms of Amalur for 24 hours straight.
(Womble music starts)
Upper cut,
Spin kick,

The Wombles of Mortal Wombat are we,
Using our fists to break your spine,
Don't tell Uncle Bulgaria cause it may be a crime.
I'm excited for Alan Wake because yes it looks awesome but also to see if Jesse from Control has a cameo or mention
Man mike came in laoded with some spicy takes.
9:37 I do find you very calming jane. Except when you are laughing at Ellen during when she's being chased by zombies.
29:33 if I had a hype meter, it would be on fire. I love Remedy games.
54:12 the darkness was missing a heart.
I didn't get to watch this live but bloody hell Mike is pretty much beef jerky with how salty he is.
Man Mike negative vibe this stream 😮
Like watching a film with a friend who's read the book when you've not . And all they do is complain about it not being as good as the book lol
Guess he was saving all his positivity for FF7R
An entire show without a woman on stage almost as if this industry hates women 🤷
I'm still crying over the utter disdain for Path of Exile 2... PoE is still better than anything Diablo-related!
Oxboxtra, camera angle snobs😂
After watching this stream I went back and watched Outside Xbox play Snowrunner, and fairly early in the stream they mention that the developers previously made World War Z, and they start talking about how they want Zombie DLC for Snowrunner….a few years later we don’t get DLC, we get a complete game.
Ellen hasn't played Abzu? I reckon that'd make a good stream or two, especially when it's time for something chill and low-stress.
I cant believe nobody has commented on how hot the guy from the Dont Nod game is, what the hell, its pride month I need the representation! :D
I know the OX team isn't huge on the Diablo scene, but I'd like to point out that you can pet the dogs in the new one. 😁
Maybe it’s a timing thing, but these always show up at the best times. Thank you guys for covering this. It’s like my best friends are in the same room at a release party.
People are taking mike's faux pessimism too serious i think haha
Witchfire and Remnant 2 are on top of my list. Immortal Aevum looks like it has potential.
Mike has already forgotten about Fallout 76 & Redfall from the sounds, haha! I'm not sure just what to expect from Bethesda anymore, sadly. High hopes but low expectations for both Starfield & the next Elder Scrolls game.
He did specify Bethesda Game Studios, so it was just FO76 he forgot. If only we could all forget.
Lies of P and Lysfanga are games I'm low-key excited for, but Mortal Kombat 1 has completely wowed me
So what I'm taking from Luke's comments on Prince of Persia is that if I remember the original, and Another World and Flashback when they originally came out, and I was an adult, then I might as well crawl into my coffin
"A million years ago"? Dearie me
"A talented vet could bring it back to life." Did you just quote Wraith. Mike.? I could see Mike watching Wraith, a lot.
Soooo.... Games are gone? Or are they back?
Ha, been playing PoE since 2013. Came out around the time of Diablo 3 but it was free to play and so much better. I don't see Diablo 4 being better than PoE or PoE 2. Time will tell.
I'm sorry, but we are going to have to revoke Mike's gamer card. And Luke is on thin ice, too.
57:55 Ellen's face 😆
I'm so hype for MK 🤩
"That was a million years ago."
When you get old enough, those insults don't even work anymore. You have no power over me. 😛
having played Forspoken i get the same vibes from Immortals of Aveum ... mixed with Revelations 2012
They need to check the older trailers for Palworld.... they are alot darker lol
it kinda disappointing that the only stuff that excited me was stuff I already knew about. Seeing a date on Palworld was the highlight of the Fest for me, but I mean it's been on my Steam wishlist for well over a year now so...
Hello to Jason Isaacs
Mike must be a shadowmancer with all the shade he's throwing
Alright the comments made me avoid the watchparty, thank you guys.
Man, I really got my hopes up for some new dragon age news
I'm just assuming Dreadwolf is vapour ware
Don't think you are going to hear about that this summer.
Palworld looks amazing. it deserves all the money and needs to be greenlit immediately for annual sequels.
I was hoping to see something about VTMB 2 but given their recent post I guess it was a little early for that.
Yes, I was hoping for news on Very Tall Men Baking 2 myself.
UA-cam is going Ape with the adverts.
Through your this video it’s 5:15 am.
Palworld might be this year's Bugsnax - this inappropriately weird kids game genre that we see every now and again.
Surprising how good Palworld looks. Gotta at least give it a try.
Don’t look now, but I think games are back!
Don't worry Mike, I still have no clue who the guy was during the Marvel Snap part
"im not wo easily pandered to" reminds me when luke said that last year then goku appeared XD
the PoE ignorance is comical in the chat. holy shit.
Mike really conplained for a while hour and a half, then was upset that not everyone was as excited as him for FF7. This was really frustrating...
"We're getting to know Sephiroth!" FFVII dating sim when?
How have these guys not lets played or stremed that sonic the hedgehog murder mystery game ??? I mean its free 😆
Watching something ike this with someone who seems to despise so many game genres just isn't fun. Not trying to be a jerk but it bummed me out a bit.
Thats a fair reaction. I got a little annoyed as well. A bit difficult to get excited for upcoming games if people are constantly criticizing it in the background..
@@yeetskeetbam6918 gonna be honest with you, there wasnt too much to get excited about this time around anyways.

what beer was Mike drinking and why does it make him so salty? 😅
Wakes are back!
Luke playing the rare wet blanket version of himself? 🤔
I love how Mike spends the entire stream bashing all fantasy games. Except for the one he's waiting all stream for...😅
1:06:01
Remnant II. PLEASE go play the first one. It's the best game that came out in 2019

"All up in your business" is the new "It's time for work, boys"
nice, subtle push for Horizon Forbidden west from Ellen :D

It's okay Mike, I don't know who that guy is either.
spiderman 2 comes out on my birthday but I will likely lie about it in streams for attention
also, i think it is hillarious that mike is so particular for games he will be rubbish at..
Mike aggressively hating everything that isn't a car or a final fantasy game. Is this what pre-race Mike aggression is like?
Would love to watch Luke or Ellen or Mike or Andy or hell, even Jane, play the Lies of P demo. I've just finished it. Feels quite Bloodborne-like, but a bit less smooth. Love the aesthetics and the lore seems interesting though I don't know much about the original Pinnochio story.
