chitoryu12 posted:I think Chip and Ironicus were serious about how the Drakes pay for everything: when they get short on cash, they just sell off some trinket he picked up and get 4 or 5 figures. Yeah salvage pays really well, but there's tons of risk because you've got a lot of up-front investment (boat, people, gear, etc.) and if a single risky job doesn't work out you may just have hosed your financials forever. The game's depiction of basic milk-run salvage jobs that keep things running vs the shady high-risk job that would be a big score is pretty accurate from what I've seen.

Goddamn, Nolan North and Emily Rose are just earning their goddamn pay in this game. North gets made fun of a lot because of how ubiquitous and typecast he's gotten, but the guy's legitimately a goddamn fantastic VA.

If we're getting pedantic, can I just point out that it's not really "Nate's" salvage company - the name is Jameson Marine Inc (you can see it on the sign @13:22). Jameson is the Black guy Nate was talking to. Nate's maybe co-founder or something. Also, am I the only one who finds it interesting that Nate's big objection to the proposed treasure hunt is that they don't have permits, given how this series began?

All right guys, I just heard some really disheartening things about comments left on DeviousDrake69's channel and that poo poo has to stop. We won't keep making videos like this if people keep acting like assholes over it. Using a camcorder is not a moral failing.

Well, when you can clearly afford stuff like a destination wedding or a fancy rear end Cintiq-esque tablet but still refuse to get proper LP equipment, maybe it should be  just cut down on delivery and sodas for a month and how hard could it be to save up, jeez

All the details in that video were so good, and the Nate/Elena interaction was so sweet!  Basically, Ironicus is my emotional stand in here.

Nathan would probably be able to do pretty well in academia if it weren't for his kleptomania and the fact that he ends up destroying every ruin he finds. I don't know why Elena is encouraging him to go off the straight and narrow, they seem to be alright financially. They could just go on another vacation instead.

North gets made fun of a lot because of how ubiquitous and typecast he's gotten, but the guy's legitimately a goddamn fantastic VA. I should mention that in previous games, the actors did the VO and body motion capture for the cutscenes. This is the first Uncharted game where they're actually mocapping the actor's faces as well, and it really shows. Pretty much everybody in this game is an awesome actor, but Emily Rose especially knocks it out of the park in later parts of the game. There's some specific facial animation stuff later on in the game that's just fuckin' mind blowing to me. Like, there are times where you see people swallow nervously after finishing talking in this game and it just looks completely real.

Because it's fairly obvious that Nathan's going through Treasure withdrawal. The small stuff he finds while salvaging keeps him going but he's really hankering for his next big thing and there's this Malaysia job where everything is good except the permits it seems like it would be a nice, 'safe' risk to take. Elena has already forgotten that sending him on a treasure hunt means something's going to explode horribly and collapse, but she's only been on what, two of his adventures total?

When you love someone you want to see them fulfilled and happy, even if their path to happiness inevitably ends up with them being flung around by some catastrophic transportation-related disaster, and is also littered with corpses

Drake says it came up the river during flood season. Not that it came from up the river. As in it was down the river, and was washed up there after after a flood. Logistically that makes even less sense than if it actually had come from upriver considering it's at the top of a waterfall but hey whatever. edit: Alternatively he might have meant that during the expedition it was flood season, and they parked it there and didn't come back (because they all got killed by weird gremlin descendant thingies) and thus it became marooned.

I always wondered about that, because you hear the Decendants in that part of the game, but it's a completely different area. Then again Drake and company probably never told anyone about the death monsters that probably need dealt with.

No the lawsuit is because Drake didn't agree to have his likeness used by Naughty Dog when Sully sold them the license. It's also the reason Drake and Sully haven't seen each other in two years. On the up shot people in the Uncharted Universe get to play as Sully, with Drake as his sidekick. You would not believe how many sex mini games there are.

That was too cute that episode, I'm also one of the people who never played Uncharted (what's a TV?) and my only exposure is through your LP's so it felt really weird having an emotional connection to that scene.

You can complete the level, it's not very long. If you make it to the end there's one of those warp stones you stand on and are taken to the scoring screen just like you would if losing all lives.

You can beat her score, there's a cheevo for doing it. I dunno how it changes the scene but I'm assuming Drake gloats instead and it's just as heartwarming.

If Uncharted existed in the Uncharted universe, you could have Elena trying to teach Nate to play his own game. e: Nathan - "Augh, this is nothing like the real thing"
