## Transcript

Yo, yo, let's go. I know I have another intro normally, but I want to pray. So that's what we're going to do. Uh-oh. What am I doing? Barry screwed up my camera so bad.
Oh, my God. Barry, what did you do? My camera was off the screen on the top. I don't know what you did, but that's a new one.
Okay. That's a new one. He turned on the Australia binary.
No Australia or yes Australia? Apparently we were yes this morning. Yes Australia. Okay, bring it over here. Z-I-P-A-N-G. We're going to do the same. Alchemist to start the day off.
Although I think I may... We were just in the process of putting down a thing yesterday. What happened to that? Why didn't we put down our... I know we died. We're running out of time. I should have put down a train altar. That's what I need to get in the habit of doing. Whenever I'm done with a play session, like, put an altar down wherever I am.
And that way we can just warp out to wherever that is. Yeah. We'll do that here in the future. We are going full mage today. I'm giving today to the mage. I'm going to see how I like it. I'm going to really see if I can work on making it feel like something I want to play.
And if it is, we'll stick with it. Or maybe not. We'll see. We're going to play around. Make sure I can eat some food here. That's our last piece of Wolfmeat, so we're gonna keep that in mind.
We need to get a little bit of rock here soon. We are definitely not done exploring this town. I want to explore this whole town thoroughly.
Hmm. Cute, cute, cute. Another one in here. Oh.
Unlock wand specialization when you can. That is part of the plan. Yes. Part of the plan. I think here's where we are right now. I got double-jumped because I needed it. I came down and got blinked. And I'm working down here to one special vision. I might in fact need one more point. We can get it
Yeah, then they will get one division attacks to Yeah, dude, I think we're gonna look at all this stuff area one to all the sounds awesome one focus on that because you're very cool
Oh interesting we we gotta look at this stuff to get our fire damage this stuff up over here Okay. We'll look into this for sure.
Let's keep going for now. Do I want to be collecting old books, chat? They're a little weighty, which is why I've been a little hesitant to keep doing it. Oh, good, some dry fur. Nice, we've got some fur drying right now in our base.
Re-assign a key to bring out a staff to mouse side button. You can use a numbered key. Yeah, you know, I was thinking about that. What I did was put it on my hot bar. maybe I think what you just suggested is a much smarter thing to do so if I go to
Q do we have something for this now? no it doesn't seem to be bound right now which is great I prefer that we're looking under general gameplay and I'm looking for the Q key it'll probably be in like the combat area right here so let's make you a
secondary here. Oh yeah dude see that'll be just fine. That'll be just fine. Great and then I can take it off my hotbar which is excellent. We can put
more stuff down here which we need. So that's good. Thank you. Now I'm just going to completely forget I did that keybind, fumble with my controls on my next combat session, probably die from it. But hey, you know what, we got a plan.
I hope I can make more fireballs, man. I need more fireballs.
I'm being rat-tated right now. I'm being shatted. I just got shatted so hard. Fireballs there. Wonderful.
What do we got down here? I need headphones today, man. I'm feeling headphones for this game. I don't know why. I think it's just that immersive for me. I don't know what it is. But I really like headphones in this game.
Sir, you have rats in your basement. This is not a palette change. What you said holds some truth, friend. I do want to keep getting metal scraps
although I'm not really making metal armor now but I have a feeling I'll need it for something I got a little hole up there to check out diggity, ooh, look at this yeah baby oh look at that, it's worth fireballs
that's my birthday chat, look at that Look at that. Ask and you... Bitch and you shall receive. That's right.
Can I get some rope down there? I need some rock. What am I going to do? I just need some basic-ass rock. Um, can I just, like, get it over here? Can I do this? Is this a thing? Oh, oh!
Look at that! This game's so good. I love that. Hopefully I'll do that. Um, all right. Do you... So, put it in the town square, I guess. Is there, like, a better place to put this over here?
Like, if I put this by the farms, is it going to grow more food? If I put this in a town square, is that going to do something? Anyone have any suggestions on this? Oh, my God, I just... Julia, are you in here?
I just realized... Oh, my God, I did it again. I forgot to put the emos in. I'm going to make this happen. We're going to wait for some downtime today, and, like, during the stream, I'm going to put Julia's amazing emos in.
Thankfully, this run will probably be for a while, so we'll keep the neutrality modes in for a bit. Oh, anything inside the radius will not respond. So if I'm using these farms for plant fiber and food harvesting,
then I do not want to have that near here. Okay, cool. Great. Thank you. Perfect. Perfect.
Gloria has been kicking so much butt in M&M's. She's got an amazing sight in that game. Julia is kicking the booty. Let's pop you down here.
Great. Okay, so first we were not done exploring the church. We did explore the basement, but I want to see if there's a way we can get up. I think Kibriel mentioned yesterday there were some interesting things to see up here.
Let's go take a look. Oh yeah, there's a grapple point right there, look at that That sound effect though
What the hell is that sound? That was awesome, but I had no idea what it was Okay Hey Nick and Dave, what's up buddy?
Oh. Man, super high damage item.
Um. I should update our staff. Yeah. But I don't know if I want this staff. I feel like we're kind of more fire than anything else right now. I'm going to salvage you.
Oh, wait. Oh, it's my took one. Whoops. I'll start with you. I think I'm going to go ahead and start with you. Well, yeah. We're not doing this right now. Today is Mage Day. Today is Mage Day.
Okay. Excuse me. Can I go any higher? I don't think so. Alright, so I didn't explore the other buildings here yet. Let's do that before we keep moving.
I'm going to explore this big one. Oh, dude, thank you so much, man. Glad you enjoyed the Emberville demo, dude. Thank you, thank you. Really thrilled. We've gotten the feedback
from the demo has been amazing. Thank you everybody so much who's been playing it. Every time you play that game, you're helping us in ways you probably do not even understand. It is awesome.
So thank you very much for everyone who's been checking that demo out. what do you think my torque is? hey sopiane awesome dude thank you that's fantastic
I feel like the spoder webs in here Chad I'm not really feeling the spoder webs Alright, let's do up first.
Nice edge. Love to hear it, man. Oh, locked it. Locked it. Wait, no, he has his ass outside. Aw, aw, aw. Wasted locket. Torch him?
Man, I hope he can make a better torch soon. Can I make fireball? Oh, I can make firebolt too. It takes resin.
Interesting. Okay. Hmm. Manitry. I can make manitry. I can make a fishing rod. I know I can make a fishing rod. We need to, we need to make a fishing rod.
Okay. Oh, yeah, I'm doing something. Oh.
Whoa. No lore items or anything.
The music here is really pretty. Oh. Hey, nice. Mysterious Blast. That's one of the ones that gives us more time in the... In the... Yeah, time in the... Oh. Pavement multiplier 10%, but minus two minutes times on this round.
Oh, it's minus, so you can't be in a draw. My final journey. My brother, all hope seems lost for me. The nurse, Helen, says there's nothing for me to do but rest.
But I won't have it. The people of the Kindle Wastes speak of the ancients as if they're almighty. Do you recall the obelisk? That ancient monument that captured our childish minds so, so long ago?
I will make my way there no matter what. Perhaps there's a cure for me yet. Do not follow. You can't stop me. That's all.
Dang. Get it, buddy. Okay let grab these two two Okay so many spoder webs No spoders Oh secret door Nice Now I know what to
Look for it. They're all over the place. I love it. Oh, hell yeah. Oh, it's a fire one.
What's overcharge? Oh, dude. Give me that thing. And we can add fire damage to it and mana leech? That sounds good. Okay, cool.
We're going to upgrade this to go home, I think. Hell yeah. Oh. Do we bust through this? Is this bust-through-able?
Hmm. This does not feel like it is very bust-through-able. Oh, also, did you realize these drop things? Oh, God. Oh, these drop a lot of things. Oh, no.
Okay. Well, that was a fun sidetracking. Let's go home and let's thank real quick. and then we're going to fast travel back out and keep going the opposite way. Coaches who enjoy being a mage? I'm digging it so far.
I'm definitely digging it so far. The wand holds a chance to amplify its damage output, attacks your bonus damage up to the overcharge percentage.
Interesting. Okay. Great. Put you guys in there.
put all that in there I don't know if we should I guess we'll keep the extra water skins for now do we not have salt anywhere oh we used it all that's what happened we used it all
okay just want to break you down oh there we go now we should have a good amount of these things oh wait can I not I can't upgrade these can I oh no we don't have the person that we need to
upgrade this thing. Jeez. Okay here is this stuff which means I can go to you.
Who had the small bag? Really? Right now?
Light fire with fire. Ah. Small backpack. Boom. Boom. Yes!
Okay. We're good. Okay. Big move, Chad, big move.
Alright. I really need to get rid of this. I do not want this on me. Where is...
How do I take this off? Oh, there we go. Looking good. I need a cosmetic chest, apparently.
Great. Do I have a helmet? Oh, there we go. God, I look terrible.
I need a mage set so bad, chat. I should go put my cosmetic set on. Remember to upgrade your flame at the waypoint? Then.
I would want to upgrade my... I thought the only flame I'd want to upgrade is my main base. Is that not right?
Let's take a look at that, dude. Oh, we don't want to do this. No, we don't want to do this. Can you go on the land? Let's see.
Hey, animals. Thank you so much, man. Thrilled to hear. Thrilled to hear. Thank you, dude. Also love the beard. Oh, did we go in here?
Well, I don't think we did. We're going to take a quick look in here for... Oh, wait. Oh, that was here. Okay. Yeah, we did this. This is the other side of that house. Great.
Flame upgrade is universal. Alter range is for alter. Oh, yes. We'll look at that when we go back. Did you just have us at level... Okay, great, great. I see what you're saying. We'll look at that when we go back, for sure.
Also, I really need to start cutting these down whenever I see them, because we're clearly going to need a lot of resin.
Bang. Ten from that, nice. Oh my god, that rain sound. Uh, Christian.
Super chat. Hello, Co. My dog, for some reason, starts barking. When I start watching your stream, it's been thin now two weeks. Haha. I think it's because I actually talk at a frequency that hurts their ears.
I have very high-pitched, subsonic undertones to my voice. I think that's probably what it is. Yeah, probably.
Go the doggo whisperer. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, you got it All right, what is this one? Pult mine. We're gonna get up there in a little bit But we're gonna stay focused on what we're doing now for now
Nice dude, there we go What is this?
Hmm. Can I mine through this?
Yeah, just go right through.
Okay. Oop. Does the wand not use mana? Uh, no. From what I understand, the wand actually gets the mana back. Yeah, I think the wand is like your backup weapon. Your big spells are far more powerful, and they have more range.
They also use your mana. But then the little spells are more... Yeah, for the other stuff. First fireball, there we go. Oh, it resets the cooldown, huh?
Interesting. I wonder if I could do some kind of over-empower with a wand.
Cool. Good, we need wolfy bags, that's great. Entangles our recouple? Oh, if you hold left mouse button with the staff, it's auto-in?
I don't know about that, I'll have to look into that later, thank you.
Alright, there's our goal right up there. Probably need to stop wasting that. Oh lord.
Cool.
Yeah, using the spell shell, I think, is going to be just fine. I've got to use it more. No question. Video Polo. Well, I probably love the Fallout world. I've always liked the Fallout world.
The soccer world's fun, too. Yeah, those are both great. Thank you for the 33 months, by the way, man. I really appreciate that. Ew. Oh, we're doing this thing. Okay, here we go. Let's do... How's ice against you?
Oh, you need to keep moving. Too effective. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. How is it going on?
Sorry, I was getting a really weird sound from my phone. Okay. Oh, so this is resisted here. So they resist fire a little bit. Interesting.
So Ice Bolt's going to be big here. Am I out of mana?
Okay. So we're going to want to keep a couple different types of wands on us, so we have the right element for the right area. Hmm. Something to think about.
Blurp, blurp, blurp. Also, in one of these areas we should probably sprint in. Whoa. What? What has all this done?
Oh, she's... okay. Fire and ice are all you need right now? Great, okay. Keep that in mind. Thank you.
He's gonna miss all those apparently.
I think I broke down that other one too early
Okay.
Well, could have been worse, to be honest. Could have been a lot worse. All right. Yeah, no, I definitely have the wrong ones, which is, I didn't realize it was going to be that big of a deal. So we will make sure to keep at least a fire
and an ice on us moving forward. Yep, big mistake on my part.
Oh, there's more up there? Did they respawn?
I love Link.
Broken, how are you, bud? Um, we're going to try to go in, I think.
Bro, better. We're both hitting for...
Oh, God! We're both hitting for pennies up there. Okay, that would have been hilarious if he had died. I would have been angry, but it would have been funny. Whoops.
Not bad, bro. Okay, we're going in. Oh, almost going in. Hold on. Almost done.
Boom! That's right, dude. That is right. We need more mana. Hopefully a mage set of armor will help with our mana, dude. because this would be so much better if we had more. If I could jump in and do like five or six of those ice things,
it would take out five people per go. Three to five people per go. Oh, Lord, what do we got here? We're not just running in and getting it, are we?
Let's see. What do we have here? Oh, more duders. Rude. I feel like an ice floating ball.
I feel perfect right now. Wonderful.
Oh, that was very off.
That would have been beautiful if I had hit properly. Oh, that's right. Whoa! No...
Maybe? Yeah, sure. Uh, Provisional Strike to salvage you... And what is this thing? Stamina and Stamina Regen with Sniper and Fatal Precision Ring.
I make a lot of mistakes but I make lots of mistakes at this point. Oh Alex Wish!
Super Chat, love the streams co, always on. Will you be watching Cyberpunk update show tomorrow? Much love and goodbyes. Uh, probably not. I don't think so. Is it like an update to Cyberpunk 2077?
I'm not even sure what that is, to be honest. I don't know. Probably not. But we'll probably hear about it and talk about it for sure. Mm-hmm. Hmm.
What are we doing here? Oh, Edgware's 2. Yeah, man. Can't wait for that. Oh, Lord.
Yoink. Hmmmm.
Gonna bust all these up. Sometimes they have some pretty good stuff in them. Great.
Okay. Okay. Probably should do that.
All right. Let's keep moving up. So caught up to me in a harder difficulty in less time.
I'm just kind of doing the main people first. Yeah, man. I haven't even done any base building or anything yet. Just having fun.
All right. Let's see here. How do I switch targets when I'm on auto lock? I can't seem to... yeah there's a...
Nice! I hope we get to learn how to make fireballs soon, because we're going to run out of it
and it's going to suck. We'll see. Hi. Hi. Summon the alchemist. Yeah.
Okay. F and scroll wheel to change targeting? I will look into that in a bit.
Anything up here? Hmm.
It's very dork. Maybe that's just a way out, maybe? Oh, okay.
Yeah, just a way out. Okay. Let's take a look. Now, we need to go over here to the salt mine. how many of you are down here to do a story of fire let's go back to the altima and then we'll work out here and go do a story of fire
there we are bat guano mhm chakaka alright
Wonderful.
Gonna have to make a magic chest here pretty soon. Mm-hmm. I feel like I'm using mana pots more, I feel like. That should be more of a thing than I'm making it.
Okay, there's that. Balthazar! What's up, dude?
Hi. Good to see you, my man. I'm sure I can help you. By the ancient! You've done it, stranger! You've awoken me from slumber!
What? I am forgetting my manners. I am Balthazar, the alchemist. And you must be a flame lord. Oh, how marvellous.
We have a chance at last. Come, sit with me, my newfound friend. Let my magic aid you on your quest. Well, cool.
Uh, carpentry. This is a bed. Oh.
Alright, that's our next main quest. When disaster struck, we adapted, rose above all limitations, freed of prejudice and convention. A sprinter group of ancients, usually hidden in silence and obscurity,
works hand in hand with humans to build the cinder vault. They house the only hope humanity has left, hidden from the shroud, sleeping, waiting to be roused by the flame boy.
we are specks of dust in a whirlwind of stars my friend do you dare to reach out wishing to grasp a piece of eternity perhaps
obtaining an eternal spell would suit you one such spell was buried in an underground tomb alongside its dreadful master you could use it to do
I like the sound of this may the flame guide your way I very much like the sound of everything that man was putting down Let see Boom
What? Missing a scalper for a bed. Eh? Oh, we're fine.
Okay, so we can make health pots with ping bun water and purple berries. Health potion plus with health potions and midnight release. Fireball with resin and tar.
And bone meal. Okay. Oh, grinding stone. Like that. Spiritual cane is a little better than ours.
Oh, here's the alchemist. What do we need for this? Bone meal. And aerated banshee gel. Okay. What's this stuff do? Gives more mana. Perfect, perfect.
I make some booties. Fire in your veins, guys. Heck yeah.
Oh. Nice. All right, you get doing your thing.
We have no charcoal. Let's get some charcoal. There's really, like, no... You just have to add all of them or one at a time?
Oh. Oh, maybe this? Oh, that's what we needed. Awesome. Okay, that's what I was looking for. Wait, can I make tar? Can I make tar? Oh. Make some tar.
Cool. Okay. Get some of that done. all right I think we're gonna head like right back out let's get some food let's get some of you

Great Let's go fill them all up Oh, farmer will put you on the right path? Great, okay. Just gotta get the farmer. See if we can get the carpenter next. We're gonna do this fire quest first.
Excuse me, then we'll probably go after the carpenter.
I'm just going to go ahead and fill up all these water skins with water, because why not, right? Great. Oh, you know what?
Let's update our wand while we're here, too. Can we do that now?
I think so. Yeah! Nice. Get some man o' leech on there.
I don't know what this stuff does. Eternal spark and spell eater and stuff? Like what is that?
Is that like here? Oh! Cool! Nice! I like it. Okay.
Great! Alright, we got some good updates here. Boom, boom. Boom. Boom. We got some good moves now too.
Alright, let's go here. Oh, you have to have a point in it to get the free point. Okay, that's good to know.
Very good to know. All right, so now we're going to here. Is this marked properly?
No, it's not. How do I... I think I need to set that quest as active maybe? Or you fire.
There we go. Perfect. Perfect. Let's go.
Alright, the place you're going is kind of right around this corner up to the left. Hey Bullzy, what's up buddy? 10 more aces, I just finished your Emerald demo in 2 hours and loved it Awesome, awesome dude
Can't wait for you to meet the town I can't wait to meet the town Let's see
Oh, we got a little lake out Oh, I wish I brought a fishing rod, bro I could do some fishery. What is this little place? No more anything. Okay, we could see,

Ooh! Woo! Good god it looks good underwater. Wow! So easy to move around. Great. Okay.
Hey, manor regenerate! Uh oh. Nailed it.
Oh, do I just have a bunch of purple rings of mana regen? No, these are blue.
Oh, man, we need to upgrade. We need to upgrade these. Damn. This is just even better. It's like a better version. Okay, cool. Great.
All right, we'll keep moving. Apparently what we want is, like, right up here? How are we doing this? How am I getting up there?
This is like Valheim where I can just build up. Well, I mean, I guess I could, technically, couldn't I? Is Skyrim in this game? Skyrim Goat? Oh, here we go. This kind of goes up a little bit. Let's go this way.
Have you been this way? Not really. It's nice to explore anyway. That is doing so much more damage. Oh my god.
Wow. Excellent. You could have just mined through the mountain with a pickaxe. That is so amazingly alpha. I love it.
Next time. Next time. Next time we need to go up a mountain, we're just going to mine up it. Alright, man, we're pretty good up here.
What's even over here? Does it sound like a little village accent? Yo! Look at all this! We don't have any fast travel over here, do we?
There's nowhere near here. Oh, maybe we should glide down a little bit now that I'm looking at it. Okay, not too bad. Let's see what this is real quick.
How much space do we have? Oh, we got plenty of space. Plenty of space for lootering. Dude, that is awesome. Oh, man.
Woo! Digging magic. Digging magic.
We just got so much good wolf meat, too. It's our main food right now. Peaceful Acres. Oh, wait, dude, I just realized, we made a, um, we made like eight discoveries for our workbench
that we haven't looked at yet, and I have no idea what they are, I'm gonna have to check Check that out. My town now.
It's mine, I keep it. I've seen multiple people in chat saying this is the spot I use for my base, that's awesome. I love that.
Deactivate altar. We're gonna go ahead and deactivate this one, because we can just glide down to here, and we've pretty much explored this area. Okay.
Okay. This can go.
This needs to... We don't have any... Oh, that's paper wreaths. That's right. We probably don't have any of those. We're going to put some leave in here.
One second.
