This reminds me: are all windows in the Uncharted universe made out of sugar glass? Or is Nate's face completely impervious to lacerations at this stage of his life?

I think that it would be difficult for Nadine to fight Gex because Gex is a lizard and a gecko, so he could just stay high up on the walls where she can't reach him and it will be difficult for her to punch him.

Also, would it be awkward for her to just, I dunno, punch a lizard? I'm pretty sure that would be a factor in that fight. I know I'd find it awkward to punch a gecko. That would be super weird, and I wouldn't want to do it.

God drat, the physics in this game moves my heart in such a way that is not physics-based. In a good non-physics-based movement way. So much so that I have completely forgotten about the multiplayer videos Chip forgot to record for UC3.

Not gonna lie, I was hoping that the place would start collapsing on you this episode. Really felt like the right time.

And I can totally get you being busy these days. Though, it's an anecdote from poo poo I do in my actual life, so I'm hesitant to speak about it. I prefer my privacy while I have it.

This level must have a solid hour of straight up walking and zero difficulty platforming. This level sucks. Sure, it looks alright, but that's about all it has going for it.

I don't fully agree with you, but I totally see where you're coming from. If it weren't for the dialog as well as the aesthetics of the stage, I'd find it lackluster, myself.

Whereas I dug the platforming and the calm moments, and stealthed my way through a lot of the shooting sections.

I tend to do that when given the option, though. I'unno why.

A lot easier to think about your next move when you don't have bullets flying overhead. That's how I feel, anyways.

Actually from personal experience it's better to do it the opposite way; pour the gunpowder into your mouth like a squirrel storing food in its cheeks, and just blow into the requisite holes on the gun. That way your hands are both free and if someone scores a headshot on you while you're reloading there'll be some pretty fireworks!

Badass. I almost wanna try that.

I want that tankard. I want to attach gems to it and sell it to my nearest gun runner for awesome loot.

Oh, and before any naïve gonna try it, don't punch rocks, even if they're stacked like ancient cairns. Punching rocks hurts. And so does kicking fairly sturdy walls down.

I know this because I have bad ideas.

More relevant to Uncharted, it's been confirmed that the DLC to this game is a standalone, which means it won't require owning the base game to play. It's also going to be starring Chole, who will be working with Nadine, and it's taking place in India.

I really hope Cutter's in it too, to be Nathan to Chole's Sully, because let's face it, if anyone can out-nerd Nate on old obscure historic facts, it's Charlie Cutter.

Wait, you mean the same Nadine that's currently hired to murder the Drakes? Huh, what a small world.

This is gonna be hilarious.

There's been more tension within the two sides than between them: Rafe and Nadine increasingly don't get along, and Nate has (failed) to balance between brother, faux-grandpa, and wife. The actual competition for the treasure has been very by-the-numbers, perhaps because it's not a particularly interesting aspect to try to do again.

Fair enough. Though I'm still of there opinion that there might not be a treasure anymore, and that there's gonna have to be a climactic battle between drug lord man and the Drakes.

Still don't see how Nate's gonna fix his marriage though. He really did take it out to the back of the yard and shoot it in the head.

I would like to say that I did not see the betrayal of trust coming because I tried to be optimistic about how much Sam cared about Nate. This is probably because I'm sort of the Sam of my family, and I've been trying for years to mend my ways.

Now, I'm just angry and disappointed in Sam for giving no shits about his brother's life, instead co-opting it for himself despite everything Nate built up without Sam in his life. What a loving poisonous person.
