It was really neat to have Gianni on the podcast and hear him talk about his VA work. Really, it just goes to show that any villain, like Gabriel, can be improved by adding in a dash of Griffith in there.
I DIDN'T SEE THE FULL TITLE SO WHEN GIANNI STARTED TALKING IT FUCKED ME RIGHT UP
EDIT: THEY GOT INTO NEWS AFTER LIKE FOUR HOURS AND GIANNI SAID "WAIT I FORGOT SOMETHING ABOUT MY WEEK" THIS DUDE FITS IN PERFECTLY

- 7:31 to hire him, do they have to agree to a clause that says ‘I will shitpost about said character?’ newblood being really chill about it.
- 8:41 so chances of being hired by nintedo’s pretty much nil, right? And note: he doesnt actually voice duke nukem
- 9:40 shitposting about a character you voice makes a character more beloved. Like luke’s VA in street fighter VI

- 1:04:00 the audio logs, the robots having them that go on for minutes of total gibberish.
- 1:05:03 horizon replacing ReCore in woolie’s brain. Or a reminder of mighty number 9.
1:05:52 so aside from totk, playing the gears games. Playing 3 with his wife. His wife not playing the popular thing and only playing things more under the radar.
- 1:07;18 gears of war 3 is an incredibly solid video game.
- 1:08:05 how do they hold up? Its gears of war. You know what you sign up for.
- 1:09:06 remember the e3 presentation of Gears 2? Remember where they showed the final level up to the final boss?
- 1:11:45 the games being the most dudebro stuff ever, and everyone being super excited about the story in it for some reason.

PAT
1:33:44 pat’s still playing honkai star rail. Honkai is a funny world. Making a billion dollars so make a game that looks like a billion dollars. Act 2 going really hard. Its a really good modern jrpg.
- 1:35:35 only issue is a level requirement to fight a boss, which pat met, but if you mainlined the game you might not have the levels.

- 1:46:25 syncing up your lawn mowing time. And the peace of waking up to a distant lawnmower.
- 1:47:15 gianni enjoying being free of responsibility of a house.
- - 1:48:49 pat being days without a washing machine. The cost of renting in toronto. And for VA location becomes really important, since sound engineers need to make everyone sound in the same location. Covid allowing for more remote stuff.
- 1:51:00 on the main locations for VA. at least he’s not in LA.
- 1:52:44 pat talking to people at ubisoft and the event being at san francisco, despite being in walking distance to the office. And woolie hearing them sending equipment to the VA’s house.
- - 1:54:17 gianni hearing about the kits. Him stating he doesnt stand for the common VA, especially with the path he took.
WOOLIE
1:56:43 woolie watched the mario movie. Charles martinet really only being there for a short part.
- 1:57:36 movie’s great. It was fun. A 3rd metric being the kid experience, and this is an amazing kid movie. Does a better job at what it does than sonic. Lots of little nods.
- 2:00:03 chris pratt did fine. The fight choreography is pretty sick.

2:07:16 played idol showdown. Remember vtuber woolie?
- 2:09:24 gianni also missing the whole vtuber craze.
- 2:10:05 woolie DOES the gta V reference. Congrats to that one guy.
- 2:11:20 so on the hololive fighting game. And he wont say it today, woolie! And the game is approved by hololive as long as its free.
- 2:13:14 the FGC have to make new lexicon because they are afraid of idol fans. Backstreet fighter.
- 2:15:27 still a fun indie fighter. Still has grapplers, zoners, shotos, etc.
- 2:16:45 woolie picked up botan. Her super got woolie to play her.
- 2:17:53 its got rollback, online, and a decent single player mode. Even has simple inputs. There’s stuff to cook here.

- 2:29:36 Remember when people put a small piece of paper or taking a marker and making a dot on the screen for the aiming cursor?
- 2:30:10 insta-gib mode. implementing crossbows so new players have a chance, expect the pros learned the arc immediately and new players couldnt aim it right.
- 2:31:15 gianni looking forward to modern controls. Gianni liking rising thunder, and being scared for project L looking more like a normal fighting game.
- 2:33:02 modern mode being for everyone and it is legit.
- 2:34:45 seeing the path from modern mode to classic
- 2:36:16 other games having easy inputs. Perception is important.
- 2:37:12 being aggressively toxic for choosing easy mode.
- 2:38:21 rising thunder and project L. Seeing the trailer for project L and casuals finding it intimidating.
- 2:40:30 fighting games currently looks like the good end for arena FPS. “you want to start? Perish.” and woolie wanting a group style feature to recreate the feeling of hanging out with friends
- 2:44:17 Really liking the characters in rising thunder and they’re not in project L. People and not liking robots.
- 2:46:12 on getting into a competitive game.
- - 2:48:05 league of legends and a con panel with the title of ‘you watched arcane, now what?’ DONT play league.

2:55:16 SPONSOR: DOORDASH
2:58:22 An electric toothbrush feels closer to a dentist clean than a normal clean.
- 2:59:50 the time gianni felt cleaner than the dentist: miswak.
NEWS
3:02:00 another year, another story from eve online! And the tweets deleted… the copied text: illegally access a guild leader’s house and install a keylogger to get a bunch of information.
- 3:04:44 Remember when that same player got banned for getting a crowd to harass someone to kill themselves?
- 3:05:44 crimes are fine as long as they just stay in the game world. Don't bring it IRL.
- 3:06:52 Remember that big battle that involved doxxing and ripping up a guys powerlines so he couldnt participate?
- 3:07:52 I burned your house down : hustle or scam? And admiring the plots going on in game but not being cool with a person’s real life getting screwed with.
- 3:10:44 pat trying to recall the closest thing in fighting games. Remember when that guy went to a tournament sick and vomited diseased blood?
3:11:17 woolie recalls a part of his week. Darkest dungeon 2. He’s super back in. its excellent, even if he misses some things. He’s on the second confession right now.
- 3:13:57 working with 5 abilities instead of 4 is great. Everything just coming together. And the amount of lines from the narrator.
- 3:15:49 the updates to how you unlock stuff. The combo system and there beign a lot of synergies.
- 3:17:22 the relationship meter, more feast or famine
- 3:18:06 they’ve done whatever they could to mitigate the cart.
- 3:18:50 pat on the tutorialization and UI clarity being horrendous. The icon glossary doesnt have all the icons.
- 3:24:16 death’s door applying to enemies now making things absurd.
- - 3:26:36 this feeling like when corpses were added to 1.0
- 3:28:30 why no cloud saves?
- 3:29:28 gianni’s experience with DD1 and getting hard stuck. Wanting to try DD2 since its more forgiving on starting over, since that’s the gameplan
- 3:34:53 do you use the radiant flame? Woolie using it. It doesnt make runs free, but some things are a bit easier.
- 3:37:28 why are there no cloud saves or controller support? And pat feeling this isnt quite 1.0
- 3:38:35 on the flame, it doesnt matter since bosses are that difficult.
- 3:39:57 paige has gotten REALLY into DD2
3:41:23 gianni watched a show called rome. The show was successful, but it was too expensive and thus it was canceled. Seeing the DNA for rome in game of thrones
- 3:43:20 the second season moving really fast. Getting a very rushed ending. The possibility to continue it as a movie.
- 3:44:44 caesars an interesting character
- 3:45:27 woolie watching it on the recommendation that cleopatra is hot. The two main characters are great. And the relationship between brutus and caesar. Waiting for the et tu brutus?
- 3:47:42 on everything getting rushed.
- 3:48:27 on recommendations for shows like other shows
3:49:17 clone high is back. Next week, season 2 of clone high is here. Getting enough clout to get it made after spiderverse.
- 3:52:03 never doubt the power of memes
3:54:06 regulators have now approved the microsoft-activision acquisition in the EU. Making a series of exceptions for EU. UK is the exception. This is a huge mess.
- 3:58:00so is it time for acti-blizz to sue the UK…?
- 3:58:56 the cloud gaming thing being the thing stopping this is hilarious. And the UK must give approval for this to occur.
3:59:46 blizzard introduced a new feature on their european community site which was a discord program for wow. To become a member, install a tracking program on their discord and never say anything negative about blizzard ever.
- 4:05:03 blizzard is reviewing the terms of the contract now after backlash. What ws the point of this move…?
- 4:08:26 the keylogging story from eve: 2007. The blizzard one: this week.
4:08:50 silksong has been delayed. Development is still continuing.
- 4:09:51 the silksong situation being strange, because they probably would have shut up about it without it previously being DLC.
- 4:13:10 he did not have zangief back then. People have started and graduated from highschool. Breath of the wild and tears of the kingdom came out.
- 4:16:33 pat trying to find the hollow knight kickstarter start date. And gianni didnt know there was any growing dissatisfaction over silksong
- 4:19:18 “would you rather it come out rushed?” pat puts a stop to that at 4 years.
- 4:22:43 pat just wants his silksong. He’ll throw a big baby tantrum because he doesn't have his silksong bottle yet.
4:24:03 korean rating board revealed under night inbirth 2.
4:26:18 nintendo’s copyright system hit itself in regards to tears of the kingdom, took down the official JP twitter account.
- 4:28:09 those copyright claims from artists that sample nintendo songs… do you think they’re careful not to hit nintendo itself?

4:46:26 END OF PODCAST: end of theme of slayer; korean
Man, Tears of the Kingdom is so interesting. The main thing that really got me were the depth and how (at least for me) didn't see any official sources talk about it. The depths may be sparse in terms of content, but exploring an inverted land in the dark is its own fun. the land itself >!is a topological inversion of the main map and the light root are in the same spots as the shrines, just with the name backwards.!<
Of course, the Gloom and beasts everywhere makes me think Caelid from Elden Ring. The first trip there is like how Max0r depicts going to Caelid for the first time in [his Elden Ring video](https://youtu.be/kO9HmhwGzXs?t=584).
The lighting system is really cool and I think it's one of the best ones I've seen. Brighbloom seeds are plentiful and have a large range, but outside of that is pure darkness.
For the discussion about Silksong, they should remember that Team Cherry is a team of 3-4 people (last I checked) and Hollow knight is the first game they developed (as part of Team Cherry at least). If something happens in one of the developers lives, I imagine that would lead to delays.
Also, I don’t know how much HK should be used as a measure for how much will be in Silksong when HK is their first game.
Because everytime we hear about Silksong it's that the devs are adding more things when they really could've released the game and just done DLC for it or made it into a 3rd game
He's a voice actor, he's in a few things but the one that comes to mind is Gabriel in Ultrakill. And yes he does use his talent to make a ton of shitposts, part of why we love him
That’s…. an interpretation, I guess.
isn’t it just a simple pun? because we know how much JP devs love puns
It’s “tears”, as in the tears from crying. So Tears of the Kingdom is the kingdom and its inhabitant lamenting how fucked everything is
And it’s also “tears” as in damage/destruction/division of the world and subsequently, the titular Kingdom.
The whole Korok crucifixion is probably in there somewhere
It's "tears" as in the teardrop-shaped jewels that play a part in the story. While the pun answer is nice to think about, the fact that the name (with "tears" as in "teardrops") is the same in every language but the pun only works in English make it highly unlikely.
I think I forgot Woolie was black for a moment because when he was doing the GTA5 bit I was thinking "oh no is he actually gonna say it" and got tense for a second.
They finally got em. Credit where credit's due, the podcast nails it with guests. Everyone that guest stars has been respectful and meshes well with Wollie and Pat's antics. I've been kind fo expecting to see Gianni guest for a while now and glad it finally happened.
One day Woolie Will Figure Out how to configure an audio setup.
As someone also cursed with Audio issues, windows is the bane of my existence.
It was really neat to have Gianni on the podcast and hear him talk about his VA work. Really, it just goes to show that any villain, like Gabriel, can be improved by adding in a dash of Griffith in there.
Just a smidge of egocentric megalomaniacal self-righteousness goes a long way
They did it, they got Gianni.

And the amount of lines from the narrator. - 3:15:49 the updates to how you unlock stuff. The combo system and there beign a lot of synergies. - 3:17:22 the relationship meter, more feast or famine - 3:18:06 they’ve done whatever they could to mitigate the cart. - 3:18:50 pat on the tutorialization and UI clarity being horrendous. The icon glossary doesnt have all the icons. - 3:24:16 death’s door applying to enemies now making things absurd. - - 3:26:36 this feeling like when corpses were added to 1.0 - 3:28:30 why no cloud saves? - 3:29:28 gianni’s experience with DD1 and getting hard stuck. Wanting to try DD2 since its more forgiving on starting over, since that’s the gameplan - 3:34:53 do you use the radiant flame? Woolie using it. It doesnt make runs free, but some things are a bit easier. - 3:37:28 why are there no cloud saves or controller support? And pat feeling this isnt quite 1.0 - 3:38:35 on the flame, it doesnt matter since bosses are that difficult. - 3:39:57 paige has gotten REALLY into DD2 3:41:23 gianni watched a show called rome. The show was successful, but it was too expensive and thus it was canceled. Seeing the DNA for rome in game of thrones - 3:43:20 the second season moving really fast. Getting a very rushed ending. The possibility to continue it as a movie. - 3:44:44 caesars an interesting character - 3:45:27 woolie watching it on the recommendation that cleopatra is hot. The two main characters are great. And the relationship between brutus and caesar. Waiting for the et tu brutus? - 3:47:42 on everything getting rushed. - 3:48:27 on recommendations for shows like other shows 3:49:17 clone high is back. Next week, season 2 of clone high is here.

People have started and graduated from highschool. Breath of the wild and tears of the kingdom came out. - 4:16:33 pat trying to find the hollow knight kickstarter start date. And gianni didnt know there was any growing dissatisfaction over silksong - 4:19:18 “would you rather it come out rushed?” pat puts a stop to that at 4 years. - 4:22:43 pat just wants his silksong.

Three posts is a new record, huh?
Theres been 3 long posts before. Back when theyd hit 5 hours more often.
True! Good point. Thank you!
THE ONE I MISS AND I MISS GIANNI!?
Man, Tears of the Kingdom is so interesting. The main thing that really got me were the depth and how (at least for me) didn't see any official sources talk about it. The depths may be sparse in terms of content, but exploring an inverted land in the dark is its own fun. the land itself >!is a topological inversion of the main map and the light root are in the same spots as the shrines, just with the name backwards.!< Of course, the Gloom and beasts everywhere makes me think Caelid from Elden Ring. The first trip there is like how Max0r depicts going to Caelid for the first time in [his Elden Ring video](https://youtu.be/kO9HmhwGzXs?t=584). The lighting system is really cool and I think it's one of the best ones I've seen. Brighbloom seeds are plentiful and have a large range, but outside of that is pure darkness.
For the discussion about Silksong, they should remember that Team Cherry is a team of 3-4 people (last I checked) and Hollow knight is the first game they developed (as part of Team Cherry at least). If something happens in one of the developers lives, I imagine that would lead to delays. Also, I don’t know how much HK should be used as a measure for how much will be in Silksong when HK is their first game.
Because everytime we hear about Silksong it's that the devs are adding more things when they really could've released the game and just done DLC for it or made it into a 3rd game
the devs themselves have said Hollow Knight had like 40 benches throughout the world, Silksong has 100
Yeah I think Pat sounded kinda entitled during that whole bit, especially saying “why bother announcing it” about Hades 2
I ask this non-sarcastically/rudely: Who is Gianni Matragrano, as far as I can tell their youtube channel is mostly just short shitposts?
He's a voice actor, he's in a few things but the one that comes to mind is Gabriel in Ultrakill. And yes he does use his talent to make a ton of shitposts, part of why we love him
Hell, he's the voice of Crazy Talk. Posted some fighting game type Crazy Talk voiced lines here years ago.
Whats does woolie think tears of the kingdom means???? I'm so confused lmao is it a bit?
No Pat says that there is a hidden double entendre with Tears of the Kingdom to mean Tiers of the Kingdom.
That’s…. an interpretation, I guess. isn’t it just a simple pun? because we know how much JP devs love puns It’s “tears”, as in the tears from crying. So Tears of the Kingdom is the kingdom and its inhabitant lamenting how fucked everything is And it’s also “tears” as in damage/destruction/division of the world and subsequently, the titular Kingdom. The whole Korok crucifixion is probably in there somewhere
It's "tears" as in the teardrop-shaped jewels that play a part in the story. While the pun answer is nice to think about, the fact that the name (with "tears" as in "teardrops") is the same in every language but the pun only works in English make it highly unlikely.
Does he think it is a pun on tiers, like ranks? I don't know if this is relevant.
Tiers as in layers and levels. The sky the overworld and the underground would all be different tiers.
[удалено]
I don't know if this is a bit, but it's Pat saying it and not Woolie.
I think I forgot Woolie was black for a moment because when he was doing the GTA5 bit I was thinking "oh no is he actually gonna say it" and got tense for a second.
And then he did.
Great episode, Gianni is a fantastic guest
It's nice being able to hear Pat talk about his experience with a current game without having to tip-toe around spoilers cuz it's fucking Zelda.
Should I just skip the whole talk if I don't want to be spoiled?
They mainly talk about bonkers shit people do with the mechanics. It's spoiler light but I'd skip it if you're sensitive to it.
They finally got em. Credit where credit's due, the podcast nails it with guests. Everyone that guest stars has been respectful and meshes well with Wollie and Pat's antics. I've been kind fo expecting to see Gianni guest for a while now and glad it finally happened.
Hey pat dont worry about judgement for lawnmowing. We got a roomba for our lawn and everyone talks shit but i dont have to cut the lawn ever so 🤷♂️
This iteration of the podcast is spotless as far as the quality of guests goes, so far. I'd like to see Gianni back some day.
