Speaking of penis jokes, Bens voice made me go from six to midnight.

EXCUSE ME?

Holy shit! Last Stand Media been cooking with these guests lately. RESPECT 🫡🫡🫡

... Is Ben trying to seduce me?

Ben is an incredible voice actor and seems like a great person, but I would like to say that as a patron I am against having people who were involved with making a game on a podcast that is supposed to be about giving genuine opinions and feedback about said game. I think it would be great to hear Ben on about games that he wasn’t personally involved in, for instance. There’s a good chance everyone on the show did genuinely love E33, but you just can’t be sure of that with the conflict of interest.

Lunar Tear

This is extremely hype!!!!

Deemac

Already thought Ben Starr was awesome based on everything we've seen of him so far - but him being a big Pro Evo fan has just shot him up even further in my estimation

Expedition 33 is a fucking masterpiece. End of story.

Ben is in plenty of games. And he stars in the kinds of games our guests play. It would be hard to wait to play around them? It helps Ben plays games like for real

Zachary

OMG! Ben Star as a young Kain would freaking blow my fucking mind.

maycare

Maybe a different criteria then, like perhaps if the game came out at least 1 year ago and wasn’t currently at the peak of its hype/marketing cycle.

Summon Sign has always seemed more about what they’re playing than reviewing it outright. If it was a review show, sure, but it isn’t.

MeatHaus

Still playing Expedition 33 and want to listen to this so badly but am worried about spoilers. Is this a safe listen?

The Incredible Shulk

Wow! You got Clive on the show!?!? Still in the Gesteral Village....even this early on, this is one of the best games I've ever played. I adore it

C

Dude, come on.

Jeffrey Rommel

I came here to say the exact same thing, maycare. It's awkward. I come to LastStand for honest feedback - and when you have someone on the show that helped make the game it is going to skew the conversation - you're going to pull punches. There is even a part where Ben is defending the game, and the cohosts appear reluctant to critique the game. It's the same reason that Colin doesn't let game companies advertise on their show and they don't take advanced copies of games. It was a nice idea but I think I'm just going to skip the rest of this episode.

CriiWolf

Is this why people like asmr? Ben's voice is extremely soothing

Jamie Hexum

I love to see it. You guys deserve the big gets.

Jamie Hexum

@Aaron Temple That’s how I always took it. Just people talking games in a non formal fashion.

Envydiel

Depends how sensitive you are. They don't spoil anything from my pov, but if you don't want to hear character names or if they liked the ending or not, then there's that.

Envydiel

Relax bro, they're not reviewing the game, nor are they getting kick backs for sales. They're just having a chat.

Mike1core

Ben’s voice is so seducing. No diddy

Lou Sassle

What is wrong with you?

Lou Sassle

Wow. First Matty on the Friends Per Second podcast, and now Ben Starr on an LSM podcast? I LOVE the cross-pollination we are doing here. Hopefully, it'll make this place more open and accepting.

Aaron

Too bad expedition 33 got totally eclipsed by Oblivion remaster release. Would’ve loved to hear anyone talk about it this week.

Antony

I understand the concern here but I didn’t get that at all from the conversation. Gene mentioned some issues he had with the game, Dustin and Brad aren’t very far along with it but said they like it. Admittedly Ben is hardly likely to speak poorly of it, but as others have said it’s not a review podcast. I think he was a great guest who had plenty to say, clearly plays lots of games and I’d love to hear him back. Not an issue for me.

Jack Johnson

Ben sounds like a well spoken Jason Statham.

MetalhedX

Plenty. Did you listen to the show?

Jacob Lesperance

The Blue Prince is so addicting it's absolutely insane. Me and my wife are also playing together. That's all I have to say, until the dawn of the following day.

maycare

On the contrary, I think the company is way better with Gene and Brad than it was before it! Gene in particular has really insightful commentary based on a wealth of knowledge of games.

Del Griffith

Akira Toriyamas art style sucks. Gene told me to admit it, so there you go.

Cruz Ibarra

Wow thanks Gene for spoiling the secret ending super boss in Expedition 33... hahaha I'm just messing with you Gene I was slightly worried for a moment like whoah they getting into deep. But great episode I really enjoy Gene and everyone in this episode!.

Cruz Ibarra

Wow I didn't realize who Ben Starr was took me a few minutes. So cool LSM got him to come on the podcast!

Jayce Tamulevich

Dang, so excited to listen to this, but I just bought Expedition 33 last night and I’m terrified of spoilers!

Dion

It's mostly safe. Skip minute 26 entirely just to be 100% safe. But even that is overkill. It was a great conversation.

Dion

I see your point but if they stick to that rule then you can never get great interviews with actors or devs. It was good to hear Ben's experience with E33 as well as hear him talk about other games. And I don't think any money changed hands. There were still negatives spoken about the game and Dustin and Brad are both early so they've got weeks left to share their opinions.

Dmnsrage

Can anyone tell me what the Super Nintendo style rpg game Ben Starr was talking about? Couldn't quite hear it. Something deckos? I couldn't quite catch it

Gabriel Baker

I hope one day Sacred Symbols gets to be Summon Sign’s size and get big guests like Ben Start

Matt Wiles

A fellow British man speaking unbelievably eloquently. Such a good guest choice.

Mr. Scott If You're Nasty

Quote of the year (can't remember it directly) from Mr. Starr: The game isn't for everyone and that's why it's great because it wasnt built for everyone. Developers and Publishers... Are you listening ?

Bartevious

Gene small nitpick but I’m pretty sure the 2060 non super laptop version would be more comparable to series S. Ik series s uses a 5500xt equivalent. XSX is more 2080 super. 5500xt would be pretty comparable as 5600xt was compared to 2060super and 5700xt 2070super. So 2060 non super laptop version is more that pocket And no the oblivion narrative is not like minecraft because there’s a hellish world invading normal world 😂 would love to back and forth about this but not gonna drop psychobabble here so I’ll leave it at that

Bartevious

Brad - I think in oblivion your summons are unaffected by difficulty scaling. Could be wrong tho

Blake GeFellers

So glad the overworld music isn't "happy". That's not the game.

Ahlickaloo

Give this man a bo'ohw'o'wo'er

Save The Game Media

If Gene sees this - I will NEVER believe the Reddit comments again. You didn’t spoil shit.

Glen Yelenovic

Wow, I could listen to Ben Starr for hours! If he re-recorded the 7 hour TLOU2 knock back, I would actually listen to it

Dude, I got in an argument with my old boss who wanted to prioritize everything. I told her if everything is a priority, then nothing is.

KeanuReeve

What an absurd take man. They're not reviewing the game, they're discussing it. It's an incredible thing to have Ben join them for the conversation. You're just being antagonistic for the sake of it.
