Oh man, Rick and Gene addressing the comments was gold!

I can never unsee this thumbnail

Hoeg did his best to sell Star Wars outlaws after the update. Still doesn’t make me want to open my wallet

Makoto is the waifu yes siiiiir Gene! Kasumi is on par for me as well.

Russell Robinson

I'd be down for that. I didn't know he was such a funny guy until I first saw him as a guest on Castle Super beast. Been a fan ever since.

Miguel Elmes

Bloodborne is coming on a 10th anniversary… I’m just saying 🤷🏻‍♂️

Shadi Haddad

Gene should be the 2nd co-host of Summon Sign and add 2 more guests

Honest Abe

Agreed... Love Yagami

Hey I really appreciate including my write in for Persona 5! For context I was mainly referring to the criticisms P5 does receive, especially within the hardcore JRPG and Persona communities. I am well aware of how beloved the game is in the broader context.

I’m fine with missables if the game isn’t too long. I feel like my personal limit is 30 hours, if the game is longer than that with missables I just don’t have time for it.

Thumbnail is so upsetting. :(

People have different perspectives of what a good time is. I don't necessarily care about 100% completion, but I will follow a guide to make sure I see everything important in one playthrough. I want to see all that the devs intended efficiently so I can move on to the next game satisfied, instead of having to replay for what was missed. That would be a bad time in my book and it doesn't feel like a job to avoid.

What does the N in NSYNC stand for

Speaking of Metroidvanias, I’m bummed we never got a sequel to Strider (2014). That game was sick.

It’s way more fun to play a game blind, organically just to experience the art than to follow a guide, trophy hunt, dissect every little thing about it. Coming from an avid trophy and achievement, Xbox and Steam for more than a decade. If you really love a game, played it a bunch and just can’t get enough? Go for it. Otherwise you’re setting yourself up for a bad time. Don’t turn your enjoyable hobby into a job you must commit to

Gene Park

happy to deliver

Gene Park

haha i’m good on the shogi chick. into the fortune teller tho

Haru Discourse

Always pleased to hear Lost Judgement getting the love it deserves.

Ryan Zimm

@Gooch Not gonna lie...I didn't care for P3 Reloaded. So dont llet that sway you. I liked P5, really liked P5 Royal, and loved P4 Golden.

Ryan Zimm

If Ubisoft would fix the Pro Patch, I'd love to buy Outlaws....but apparently it is really poor

plzsendpie

Her and the Shogi chick were doing something for me 😅

Jeffrey Rommel

That episode pic will give me nightmares 😂

Spanky

Ms. Kawakami is best girl.

Dylbun

FUCK YEAH GENE MAKOTO BEST GIRL YOU KNOW BALL

Gene Park

i loved teddy. morgana is definitely worse lol

Gene Park

best menu for sure

Bartevious

Lmaooo fair point. Great episode Gene and all. Love your guys’ chemistry together

Gene Park

it’s the short hair for me.

Gene Park

ok i feel like saying mona is the worst would be too obvious, it should go without saying lol

Gooch Gobbler

Y'all enjoy, I get so sick of the constant persona talk across all gaming podcasts lol I tried to get into P3, just not for me

Bartevious

Morgana: weird ass simp cat who shits on the male party members and runs away for two months when someone claps back, literally does anything Ann asks, makes me go to sleep all the time, annoying cringe ass anime voice Ryuji: says come on man and for real sometimes I get what you’re saying though. On second thought I understand. I think morgana distracted me from being annoyed by ryuji lol

Ryan Zimm

"For real!?!?"

Ryan Zimm

Morgana is kind of annoying in English. Much more tolerable in Japanese. Although, I'm in the camp that loved Teddy from 4 Golden. So not sure how popular/unpopular that opinion is.

NukeDukem

Did people seriously complain about Rick interrupting Gene on the DA spoilercast? Gene is the King of talking over people.

Bartevious

How does one “hate” ryuji? Edit: I know you explained Gene but cmon that dude is awesome lmao

Joseph Gedgaudas

I don't know how any other Persona 5 character can be hated, when Morgana exists.

Ryan Zimm

Finally. Someone who shares my hatred for Ryuji. His English performance is TERRIBLE. He's a little better in Japanese, though . As for romance. I romanced Makoto in P5. And in P5 Royal, I romanced Kasumi
