 What's up everybody I'm the man goes you are awesome and it is time for the weekly Updates and oh what a week it has been a lot of big news big news coming out of predecessor of course with their closed alpha But also big news coming out of overprime some smaller updates for fault Some even smaller updates for project stamina, and then I just want to talk about a theory a little bit No real updates for them. I just want to talk about them a little bit But let's get into these updates starting with of course predecessor and their closed alpha this weekend I'm not sure if that closed alpha is going to extend to next weekend. They do plan to open it up again But it will be closed after It should be closed now if you're watching this video because I'm gonna release it one Monday, but um Overwhelmingly successful everybody had positive impressions of the alpha. There were a few problems here and there I'll have my own video out on that later this week But for the most part the people that played had a great time playing I got to play with a lot of you Which was really fun. Some of you probably think that I'm way better than I actually am while others probably unsubscribed after the game Especially this one game I had with Narbash. It looked like I was intentionally feeding. I promise. I wasn't I was just bad But uh, you know, that's how it goes. It's ups and downs, but Overall, I think that way better than their original alpha release, which was March of what is that fucking 2018 2019 I don't even know it was a long-ass time ago when they had their original closed alpha It was uh, not great, but this one much much better There were I do want to put this out here This was an announcement that Smokey made in their discord Somebody's been going around giving giving out fake keys and just kind of trolling people Just watch out for that if you see like an email from a meta studios Then you know take that seriously, but if it's from just anybody else just some random person It's it's not a real key. I don't know what they get out of that I guess they just want to watch the world burn But if you do want to register for a predecessor key I don't I don't know if they're gonna be rolling out more keys But um, if you do want to register for one hit up their website linked in the video description below and Amidst all of this kind of sliding under the radar predecessor also released a new Murdoch skin This is their own creation. It is absolutely amazing. It is really good-looking. It's not just a recolor It's not just a weapon skin. This is a full one. I guess you would call it tier three Murdoch skin Fucking Murdoch though, why does Murdoch get all the skin love? He's always gotten all the skin love Let's get some skins for some other people, but you know, that's that's a side that beside the point It's still it's great to see that they know how to create their own at unique assets instead of just manipulating the epic assets Let's move on to over prime. They had their patch of point six update I'll also do a video on that that also that kind of explains how to manually patch because it's a lot faster than using their patcher But um, yes, this introduced monolith so now they not only have a legacy map, but they also have a monolith map and I found that I Really enjoyed legacy Paragon, but as far as over prime goes I like the monolith version of over prime a little bit better The map is very very similar to monolith and Paragon However, there are some differences because they have prime dunking in it So the prime duck mechanic has been carried over to the monolith map. They did take out travel mode Which is a big reason why I do like the monolith version of over prime a little bit better Having a lot more experience experience under my belt with MOBAs now than when Paragon first released I really really realize the problems that are inherent with travel mode and why why epic took travel mode out But yeah, give that one a try a huge roster and The gameplay gameplay was pretty good. Just like I said, I'll have my own video out on the over prime monolith update And then fault they had like a little bit of a new UI for of their own and a tease for what their new core is going to look like and They also were due And they also released their own skin. This is a skin for Kwong is a cyber skin It's kind of cool-looking. We don't really get as much detail, but it they've been producing a lot of different skins I know they did a Bora skin. I know they've done a few skins But this one is the latest one looks really good check that out And then they introduced their fault community page and it has Highlights various content creators. They'll do like one Like, you know specific highlight a week But then then you can check out the different fault partners out there including myself but um Yeah, and it's not just like Twitch and YouTube content creators It's anybody that creates content like their first the first highlight is Jay Offlane who does art for fault And it's like he does really amazing stuff really cool-looking stuff I kind of feel bad during the meeting like when they said Jay Offlane I was like, huh, there's a lane just for Jay and off and then like I giggled like a The man child that I am for the rest of the meeting. But anyway, check that out really good stuff And then projects stamina now the updates for project stamina are mainly through their patreon and I'm not gonna just show that stuff off because that defeats the purpose of them having a patreon But patrons will know that cake the what is it called the community architected kit experiment? It's where they Take surveys and input from the community to create a character. It is coming along really well. It looks amazing I wish I could show it to you, but I cannot show you cake And I'm not gonna not even gonna say what the gender of cake is and you're you'll have to find out on your own Later on when the gate when when cake is released into the game or if you want to become a patron You can go to patreon.com that'll that'll be linked in the video description below as well And then you can find out all about cake and vote on Oh I leaked it. I leaked it. You vote on its Various abilities and looks and all that so good stuff And now for ethereal like I said, I don't have any updates for ethereal But I've been seeing a lot of comments in my videos lately saying like hey, you should check out this game ethereal You should check there's this undying company that's making ethereal. I really appreciate it I really appreciate you guys letting me know about other cool game games and projects that are out there But I am very very deeply involved with with ethereal. I know all about ethereal If that's probably if unless the game is just absolutely terrible, which I don't think it will be That's going to become the main focus of my channel. So if you think that I'm just ignoring ethereal I'm not I'm definitely not ignoring ethereal. It's just that they are Deliberately trying to downplay the hype for that game right now until they have Something to just really just blow the doors off the barn so to speak But I yes, I I know about ethereal. I appreciate the heads up. I mean I I actually I proofread and edit a lot of the lore for ethereal So I kind of worked for undying in a roundabout sort of way, but yeah, I did appreciate it But yes, I know I know about ethereal So that is all we have for this week Next week should be another big huge one because fault should be out Coming out on the 17th their early access So then we'll have predecessor fault and overprime all three to play If you got lucky enough to get a key for predecessor or if you purchased fault or if you Just downloaded overprime anybody can play overprime But that is going to be it for this week. And this is the mangoos signing off you guys. Have a good one Mango
