This Subnautica 2 Story is INSANE - Kinda Funny Games Daily 07.10.25

30:24This sucks. This is not good. But there is a conversation to be had of. There are thousands of games being developed and dropped on Steam on all storefronts everywhere, every single day throughout each year. There are also games that come into early access and don't hit. There are games that come into early access that hit but don't have enough to them, enough meat on the bone for people to stick around and want that. right now for subnautica 2 it's a little bit different it's the sequel to subnautica people kind of know the quantity they know what they're going to get what they can expect they want to jump into that but on the flip side right you want to make sure in 2025 and beyond you're dropping a good product so people can get behind that and hopefully purchase it and stick around and stay with it through the long run right a lot of these games come out they don't have enough we rely on community feedback but guess what the initial purchasers are people that want to jump in don't because it takes time to make this game as good as it should be because they want to hear from community feedback so you go okay like give them enough time enough runway to make it there right but when you hear the three founders of course on the flip side now when we come back to reality when you hear the three founders go hey we felt like we were at the finish line we were ready to put it out there so we could get community feedback yeah and build it to make it so it's perfect it's like oh well that sucks because it seems like it was ready to rock and role yeah and they just you know this crafting team clearly just wanted to save the money that sucks yeah yeah dude i feel for the hundred you know developers at crafting especially the ones that were like oh man i'm about to get paid paid i spent i spent however many years i spent four years five years six years working on subnautica 2 like you know we've been having our team meetings and like they've been talking about like yo we're at the we're almost at the finish line we're gonna launch this early access those bonuses are looking likely now like imagine working for however much it is right even if you are like making six figures or whatever and like thinking that at the end of the year you're gonna make 500k or a million or like 100k or whatever it is and then you just don't not by any reason like you're looking you see the finish line but the fucking bigger corporation that's above your bosses all that shit also see the finish line they take the finish line and they move it way forward that's crazy you should also be mindful of like crafting pub g battlegrounds pub g mobile yeah right these are two like very popular money making machines but of course there's never enough money so you got to make more but these are two big names they also currently got Tango Gameworks they supported that team after that got let go from Microsoft so there's another team that you like root for and you're like oh shit like if they're doing this to the Subnautica team what does Tango have in the future I hope that's protected right so you got to start kind of looking at the bigger picture now as well if this team is not doing right by the Subnautica team what's to say they'll do right by anyone yeah i'm so fascinated to see if we get more info about this i'm also fascinated to see like what litigation looks like like if there's if there's any sort of like i guess legal movement on like hey can we can we sue for this like what does that look like as far as like jason schreier says that like this story is far from over and yeah like this story is far from over i think we're gonna be talking about this for a while yeah this one hurts because i'm very excited for subnautica 2 this is a game that i very much anticipate i cannot wait to share with my friends because it is a co-op experience now and it hurts because i really want this game and now at the same time there's a little bit of a sting to it there's a stank to it that i don't really want to be near but at the same time charlie max and ted over here worked really hard with their team to make this game that a game that i know i'll love and it's like man i want to see that i want to experience that and so yeah this is gaming in 2025 there is the duality of it all there's the business and the consumer side where the consumers 95 of them won't ever know this story yeah won't ever hear this they'll just click on that tile 90 jump right in for subnautica 2 a game that again is the second most wish listed game on steam currently i'm sure like week one we're talking about millions of units sold right like 99 of people aren't going to know this is happening we will unfortunately forget in the news cycle that we're currently living and we will forget about this story in a week to two weeks and it will suck but hopefully we'll come back to this as jason says and we will hear more from and hopefully things are done right maybe there is a payout maybe maybe they amend the deal they're like oh we'll extend it next year they're not gonna extend it next year but i hope like i would hope same story oh this is one you have to hear you got to read up on and uh yeah that's an insane one um i might i'm gonna see if

38:23Blessing Adeoye Jr.:And we're back. With story number two. But before we get into story number two, we do got some super chats I want to read real quick. I bet we got a lot of super chats on that one. They got to do with the last story. Oh, yeah. Clawmaster writes in and says, there's already a case like this to look at for comparison. The devs who worked on Skrullgirls are currently in a lawsuit against Autumn Games for no pay in the last few months for$1.2 million. Colin Barry has become a member for 27 months. Shout out. And says, doesn't it take some money to get rid of C-Suite like the old CEOs? they rather spend that money to cause issues than let it trickle down i mean come on this is a story this it's the ever going story right people are selfish is what it comes down to you greed all that stuff beginning in time talked about it um demon hacker says if this wasn't financial the deadline uh would extend yeah and then we'll do one more from pretty dude who says not so fun fact this basically happened to the devs of lego island back in the 90s the game was super successful when it launched and the execs laid everybody off to avoid paying the bonus hate to see it that's the type of that's the type of greed that they talk about in the bible you know what i mean like when they when they when they started talking about the fucking seven deadly sins yeah that's what they were thinking about when they wrote that shit down that's the heart of it goddamn story number two like mario kart world donkey kong bonanza was originally a Switch 1 game, Nintendo confirms.

39:54Blessing Adeoye Jr.:This is Rebecca Valentine at IGN. Donkey Kong Bonanza, launching next week, is a Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive, but that wasn't always the case. According to the game's developers, it was originally conceived as a Switch 1 title. Speaking to IGN in a new interview, producer Kenta Motokura told us that the game began its development cycle on Switch 1. However, as the team developed the voxel technology that lies behind Bonanza's destruction mechanic, it became clear that the best implementation of that tech would be on Switch 2. Director Kazuya Takahashi continued the explanation by referencing something called continuity of destruction, essentially a philosophy behind Donkey Kong Bonanza where players are led to destroy a portion of the environment and receive a reward, which then reveals another area that can be destroyed for another reward, and so on and so forth.

40:41Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Takahashi said the team felt they could expand on that philosophy on the Switch 2. Well, this allowed us to engage in creating a really extremely rich variety of materials and very large scale changes in the environment on that new hardware. And when destruction is your core gameplay, one really important moment that we wanted to preserve was when a player looks at a part of the terrain and thinks, can I break this? Because that creates a very important surprise that has a lot of impact for them. And that was something that was best done on Switch 2. well but it's not really even just the processing power of the switch 2 that i think attracted us to uh and gave us some interesting possibilities there was also the device itself uh that offered things like mouse control which you can use in co-op play for a second player to control pauline's vocal blasts or dk artist a mode where you can sculpt a large set of voxels end quote that was a wild one that was a lot the mouse control got me the mouse control really threw movie when I read this.

41:44I was like, I don't get it. They don't believe that. Nobody believes that. Oh, yeah. We kept it on Switch 2 because we like the mouse. We got really excited when they said Switch 2 is going to have mouse control. So we're like, hold up. This kid can't come to Switch 1. We can't. We've got to go to Switch 2. Hold the horses. You know the second player, your little brother or sister, the small child you have in your home. When they play the second player co-op, Pauline, we've got to be on the mouse control. Yeah, we can only do that on the mouse. We're definitely not just going to be doing this the whole time.

42:09We can only do that on the mouse. You know, we can't do that on the Switch 1. What are we doing here? we're lying is what we're doing uh the article ends notably another first party switch 2 game

42:18Blessing Adeoye Jr.:mario kart world had a similar path to release it's so funny because like the first three-fourths of the statement i'm like oh i buy that yeah yeah like you wanted to take advantage of the power of switch to it's like you know amp up the destructibility make everything as destructible as possible and like really lean into the experience of oh can i break that and then you do and it's like oh shit all right cool that reveals the thing that makes so much sense i buy that the fucking mouse part ruins it the mouse part we could have just kept the back pocket is right yeah that's like that's like when you listen to like a classic album and there's like one song on it that's like when you're listening to graduation and you get to drunken hot girls and it's like i don't like this remove the song from the album uh i mean minus the mouse controls like you said bless so perfectly yeah it totally makes sense right i'm sure this game could probably be run on a switch one uh it could have been a cross-gen game if we really wanted it to but at the same time we're trying to sell units we want to take advantage of the hardware and the the developers can look at that and say, hey, we can make an even better game.

43:11Plus, it will help us sell the Switch 2 because everybody's going to want to buy a Switch 2 to play this now. You say, hell yeah, that's a great idea. Let's do this. Yeah. I'm like, I really like the philosophy of Nintendo. Obviously, they make so many weird decisions. Obviously, I hate when like so much of their stuff is like overpriced or at least priced in a way where it's like, man, this does not feel consumer friendly. Nothing goes on sales, right? Like all this shit, right? Like I had all that stuff, but i think they do have such a good marriage of business and software sometimes when it is like all right we got the switch 2 coming out like let's put mario kart world on it let's put don kong bonanza on it and like make those feel make make that transition feel meaningful as far as on the line you gotta come over drawing the line you gotta come like these are games that you that you can only play on the switch 2 but they back it up with the sauce to make those games feel like no this could only work on the switch 2 you know what i mean like i look at don kong bonanza and i'm like i don't know if the switch one can do this i don't know if the switch one is handling this i played i play mario kart world and like you know the presentation of it the the scope of it like could you have scaled that back to make it work on the switch one yeah sure like you probably could have but yeah i think there is something special about playing that game on the switch too and it being a you know 4k 60 fps like all this shit and like it feels like i'm stepping into the future with nintendo i totally agree with you bless i i like the i like the hard line of like hey you got to jump onto this next console to experience that i would love to see the business side though when we flip it of like what do you mean this couldn't be a cross-gen game right these past two titles you're telling me they couldn't play on the switch maybe they'd look a little bit different is the normal nintendo player the general audience really going to be nitpicking of like well this looks like this here that looks like that over on that one i got the you know inferior version no they would be happy to buy a brand new mario kart and i'm sure it would sell ridiculous list as well right so it's like what is the business decision of not doing cross-gen because oh you know you could easily but i'm saying it's like there's an install base there though that would easily buy mario kart world and bump up those sales right yeah but we're talking you're saying there's enough people buying the console plus the hardware or the software over there to say hey we don't need to put it over on the switch one still yes one thousand percent yeah like you're talking about the switch two is the best is like the fastest selling console all the time right Like Nintendo, it's funny because I think a lot of people, and I get it, right?

45:34I think a lot of people would call me hypocritical in the way that I talk about Nintendo versus the way I talk about like Xbox or PlayStation or whatever, right? But I think it is all about philosophy. It is all about what the strategy is and how much you lean into that strategy. And like that's why even though Xbox and Nintendo are virtually opposites in how they operate, right? Like there are things about how Xbox operates that are like obviously things I dislike when we look at the layoffs and all that shit. but like i think there's a future in platforming like or making your console more of a platform and xbox game pass and all that shit right versus nintendo where i think you have i think nintendo has to draw that line i think for them it is a thing of our main commodity as nintendo is our ip and our hardware and our ip has to sell our hardware so what happens if we made mario kart cross-gen and donkong bonanza cross-gen you have less people show like that feel like they have to buy the hardware you'd have me i bought switch 2 for the donkey kong yeah right like that's the only reason why i wanted to make this jump i could have easily passed on this or played it on my switch one yeah and i that's i think their business revolves around that that's why you look at the slate of games on each of their consoles and usually not every time but usually for most of their big franchises you're getting one per console it is all right here's one 3d mario now you're gonna have to wait a whole generation for the next one because we want to make sure we're drifting this and like maintaining the cadence to make you hunger for the next mini mario here's one well maybe this last generation here's two big zeldas right yeah but we're not going to overdo it their advice to ubisoft with the mario v rabbits was that hey only drop one and ubisoft dropped a second one and like they saw that number dip right because nintendo knows the demand that their audience has for their things now my question to you is they haven't done cross gen before i thought on the wii u to switch they did they had one that like crossed over right zelda crossed over but zelda was like if you remember it was it took forever for that game to come out it was originally announced for the wii u and it was like being developed for wii u so that was one of those like we had to put it on here because we announced it so long i believe metroid prime is the same way right like the new metroid prime i believe is switch one as well kind of funny or chat correct me if i'm wrong really i believe so yeah okay chat am i wrong about that i think yeah i think metroid prime is on switch one as well because they announced that forever ago on switch one i think they i don't think nintendo wants to go back on that nintendo's a weird company because any other company would just be like fuck it no like we're just gonna cancel the switch one version but nintendo wants i i think nintendo like there's an element to them where they're like ah no we promised it it's such an interesting one yeah i would love to dive more into the sales on that because i totally agree with you of like you make it so you have to go buy the new hardware but like the install base is so big on the switch one of like it's odd because we see PlayStation Xbox like the first year is like hey you could also get it on Xbox one you can get it on the switch one you have four major titles this year that could easily most likely be played on the switch one yeah right sure it wouldn't be up to stuff with the switch two version but that install base probably doesn't care they would still spend 60 to 90 bucks on it how much more would you make but I like drawing the hard line I like feeling like I'm jumping into this generation for a reason these games have to be played here but in nintendo's case with such a large install base i'd love to see those numbers of hey dk is on both this how much we sold oh yeah

48:51Blessing Adeoye Jr.:that'd be fascinating to like the ab test on that one story number three speaking of nintendo nintendo was ending the switch game voucher service this is jordan middler at vgc nintendo has announced that it is ending the switch game voucher service the service will conclude on january 30th 2026 after which time it will no longer be possible to purchase the popular vouchers. Nintendo Switch game vouchers allowed players to pay a lump sum for multiple game vouchers at once, which would result in the games they redeemed them for being cheaper. Nintendo has confirmed that the unused vouchers will expire 12 months after the original date of purchase.

49:26Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Nintendo hasn't said if it plans to introduce a new service that will also feature Nintendo Switch 2 titles. Do you remember this? No, I was going to ask you. I don't even know what these are. So this was like quite a few years ago where you would buy for like a hundred bucks. Here's two game vouchers and you can redeem them for first like switch first party games. Okay. For like the ones that they offered for it. And so this would be like a good birthday present or like gift card you so much. Yeah. And it's a way to like, if you know, you're going to buy two switch games. It's a way to save 20 bucks.

49:59Save some money. Yeah. Okay. Did you partake in some of this? No. Okay. Okay. Yeah. No, I was like, there was never a time where I was like, I know. like these are the two switch games that i want at the same time i think it was kind of a weird service that like if you knew what you're doing you could probably get a lot of use out of this yeah but for me i'm like i feel like there would be one or two first part like major first party games a year that i could think of where i'm like oh i know i'm gonna get this but i'm not thinking ahead far far enough like in may like in may i'm like oh man i want zelda right and then like and by the time i'll get around to my next one it's like okay it's fall do i want to buy the vouchers or do i do i just want to buy the game kind of thing okay story number four the sag after

50:38Blessing Adeoye Jr.:a video game voice actor strike is officially over this is claire lewis at polygon after a year of negotiations the sag after a video game voice actor strike has officially come to an end with members of the guild approving the 2025 interactive media agreement the strike which had been ongoing since july 2024 was halted last month when sag after a union members and the game companies represented by the Interactive Media Agreement negotiating committee reached a tentative agreement. This led to the strike itself ending, but SAG-AFTRA members hadn't yet ratified the agreement. Now, a year after SAG-AFTRA voice actors went on strike, the 2025 IMA agreement has been approved by the Guild, with 95.04 % of SAG-AFTRA members voting in favor of the updated agreement and 4.96 % voting against it.

51:26Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Quote, together we have achieved far more than many thought possible and have made important headway in our ongoing efforts to expand video game performers rights and ensure sustainable careers for those dedicated to this vibrant art form the union said in a press release with the contract now ratified video game performers including voice actors will immediately begin receiving a 15.17 percent increase in compensation for their work and that compensation will be increased by an additional three percent each november from 2025 to 2027. Health and retirement benefits have also been boosted with the AFRA retirement fund increasing by 0.5 % now, with another 0.5 % increase going into effect this October.

52:08Blessing Adeoye Jr.:But arguably, the biggest win for the Guild in this new agreement, and one of the main reasons voice actors were striking in the first place, is the implementation of AI protections for performers working in the games industry. SAG-AFTRA says that the updated contract, Quote, establishes foundational guardrails around AI, including informed consent requirements across various AI uses and the ability to perform the ability for performers to suspend informed consent for digital replica use during a strike. And, quote, very good news. Very good news. Congratulations to everybody out there for getting that done.

52:41And I know that took a long time. It's really interesting to me because I got lucky. I spoke with the Starfield acting team. If you remember, we had the voice actors on from Starfield and Sissy Jones was one of them. And she had the big conversation with me of telling me what they were doing on the SAG-AFTRA stuff of AI voices and why they were going to bat against this and for this, of how they wanted to make sure everybody was being safe around this because all of a sudden her voice was being used in some crazy PR meeting for a rent-a-car company. It was like, how'd you get my voice? what's going on right and so it's uh really cool i we got to reach back out to her and hear all the stories from this but great to hear that they're got this done yeah i want to give a shout out uh

53:24Blessing Adeoye Jr.:to i believe uh chris plants post games podcast uh they had an episode uh talking about uh ai and talking about the voice actor strike um where he had on a i believe representative from sag after to break it down um i believe it's how to fight brilliant and stupid ai might be the episode but i'm not positive that's the one i'm like diving into the um oh here it is yes it is it is the one so how to fight brilliant and stupid ai from post games um where they talk about uh where they he talks to sarah um elmala who is the chair of the sag after interactive media agreement negotiating committee um she breaks down a lot of the ai stuff and a lot of the concerns around ai from performers um mainly your ownership over your voice and like not wanting to essentially like lose out on yeah like people using your voice any which way and like you not having autonomy over that right which is very scary so good on that story number five now you can buy in-game dlc and pay it off later this is eddie at game spot by now pay later services are becoming more and more popular and now one bnpl provider has announced a deal with a gaming company to allow people to finance in-game purchases.

54:38Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Affirm has partnered with gaming commerce company XSola to allow people to use Affirm to pay off in-game purchases of$50 or more on payment plans. Affirm offers interest-free bi-weekly payment plans or longer-term monthly installments that incur interest. This will work similarly to how it does already where Affirm is supported. For supported in-game content, players can choose Affirm at checkout, then Affirm will run a credit check and then players can choose a payment plan that works for them this is live now in the u.s and is coming to canada and the uk soon interesting times we live in yeah bless i mean this was only a matter of time coming of course we see this being used with concerts festivals larger purchases in your life we've seen companies like a firm in here before i think it was only a matter of time coming to your gaming market like this we've had conversations with xbox and being able to pay a little bit up front and have monthly installments for your Xbox consoles, right?

55:37They've done that before. And so, yeah, hitting the gaming landscape itself for DLC and game purchases was probably only a matter of time. It comes down to the same thing as always. Everybody's financial independence and stability is different per person, right? So, whatever that is, we're respectful for you. Please make smart financial decisions. If this is something you need, be aware of it. Understand what you're getting into. But I do love the opportunity of people are able to use this, right? We live in very tough times right now, and it's hard enough to do a lot of things with your money.

56:09And so to have the option to do it is great. Also, be mindful of your finances. Understand what you're getting into. Make sure you're making financial decisions where you need to. You shouldn't be worried about others, as I know the chat will go crazy right now talking about that, right? Like, I'm not worried about other people's finances. I hope that they just make good financial responsibility choices. Yeah, I feel like, you know, choose wisely is what I'll say, especially when it comes to like a buy now, pay later situation, right? Like, I understand the uses for that in many cases. Video game DLC feels like the last place you should be using that.

56:45But also like, yeah, I'm not going to tell y 'all how to use your money, but also I'm never going to do this. I'm not touching this. This sounds like a bad idea. But hey, like, do what you do. Do your thing. Mike, a lot of big decisions people are going to have to make. Big decisions. A lot of big decisions with their money, with their game plan. On small purchases. Like$50 DLC. But if I wanted something smaller, say the tiniest news I needed to know about. Where did I go? Plus, you go to our last story, the Wii News channel, where we cover all the small news items you need to know about.

59:36Blessing Adeoye Jr.:here uh manny bagel boy sanchez says xbox and playstation only did that because the pandemic limited hardware availability only now are games current gen only nintendo almost never goes on sale they eventually sell the software example mario kart 8 big boy sanchez i completely disagree about the xbox and playstation only did that because the pandemic limited hardware hardware availability i think they're doing it to make more money as far as like cross-gen releases yeah also utilizing their technology right of like being able to use the cloud to play next-gen titles when you're still on the old gen hardware they've been promoting that for a long time now so i think next gen you're still going to have there be a long period of you playing of them making games that are cross-gen.

Next week, you will see me train up Roger Bercorni and then Greg Miller to become the very best in NCAA football. So next week, Coach Mike hits the gridiron with Roger as he is now my all-star, my player, and I'm going to coach him up to be good at football.
