He's got 42 mutual friends. Accept the damn request Robert. What's up guys and welcome back to my channel where I talk and do everything pinball. So if that sounds interesting to you, then hit that subscribe button down below. It is very close to midnight. I'm already exhausted as it is and still had to get up at the crack of dawn to go to work, but I have received some actual decent footage of gameplay for Raza. Now, there has been some footage that has been released by individuals with their cell phones, but honestly, it's quite poor. the the angles are just not giving a lot of people the the best look of what the game is capable of and even then not it's not just the camera angles that are holding this back it is the players and so i not insulting all of you people that are playing this game because i haven seen all of you but for the ones that i have seen you are obviously going to need some more time on this game to learn the shots because a lot of us are getting very upset is that all we seeing is people hit brick brick brick brick brick and so it's giving it's not giving a lot of people the the footage that they need to give them the real feel of what this game can do so i have gotten in touch with edward vanderbeen he is down there in Houston and I asked him a big favor if he could try to get us some better footage above the game. Give us more of a player's view of what this game can do. And so he has provided me some footage. It's not a lot but it is definitely better than what we've got to go on so far. He told me that he will be possibly giving me some more footage tomorrow so we shall see how that goes. I'm not going to put a lot of time into this video guys. I'm just going to start this intro, show you the gameplay footage, and then it's going to leave because I've got to get to bed.
