Transcript
- 0:00In this episode, was he always British? Can we
- 0:03be any more disrespectful? And what was that
- 0:07noise? I like how you thought about the British
- 0:11part because I literally just typed that into
- 0:14my notes and I'm like, we're of the same mind.
- 0:17It's not just British. He sounds stuck up. Thank
- 0:22you for coming back for more replay reviews.
- 0:24My name is Leah. And my name is Kathy. We are
- 0:26two friends who are here to replay, review, and
- 0:28analyze your favorite video games. And since
- 0:31Kathy has never seen the games before, it helps
- 0:33me view them through her fresh eyes, almost like
- 0:36I'm discovering them again for the first time.
- 0:37We hope it will be a similar experience for you.
- 0:47Anything you want to say before we start in on
- 0:49Chapter 14? Nope. Nathan stumbles upon an area
- 0:53where he can overhear Eddie and Roman arguing.
- 0:55Eddie is saying the island is cursed and that's
- 0:57why his entire army is being killed by Nathan
- 1:00and Nathan alone. Roman sends him packing. How
- 1:04does Roman have so much pull over Eddie? And
- 1:07I don't think it's just money. I don't understand.
- 1:09Maybe Eddie owes him something because no one
- 1:12in their right minds would be okay with no matter
- 1:15how much money they're getting to have so many
- 1:17of their men die. Okay, chapter 15. Nathan continues
- 1:22solving puzzles until he unlocks a secret doorway.
- 1:25And this pathway leads to a building that hides
- 1:30the vault. But it turns out Roman and Navarro
- 1:33are already at that building. That makes me question
- 1:36Sully a little bit because he like sent them
- 1:38out on a wild goose chase, but it was correct.
- 1:41It's too much of a coincidence. So either Roman
- 1:44and his guy know that Sully isn't reliable and
- 1:48they just... Or like, yeah, yeah, whatever. And
- 1:51then they do their own thing and they happen
- 1:53to be correct about it, which then begs the next
- 1:56question is how did they know? Or Sully is two
- 2:00-timing them and just feeding information to
- 2:03them without Nathan knowing, but not enough to
- 2:06get himself killed. Which I don't think that's
- 2:09likely, though. Yeah, I'd be okay with it, though,
- 2:12if it was. You know, like, he's just trying to
- 2:13stay alive. I wouldn't hold it against him. Yeah.
- 2:17Sully does create a distraction to help Nathan.
- 2:19And he's able to regroup with Sully and Elena,
- 2:22where they solve another puzzle to reveal another
- 2:25secret passage. And this is when he just like
- 2:28tosses the skeletons on the floor and like throws
- 2:31a head, a skull. And I don't know, that just
- 2:34seems really disrespectful to me. Agreed. Nathan
- 2:38and Elena get trapped inside, but Nathan shoves
- 2:41Sully out to save him and tells him to head back
- 2:44to the library. Why did Sully take so long to
- 2:47move through it and stay there? Like, why was
- 2:50he not being quick about his feet and rolling
- 2:52forward or backwards? Yeah. You know what I mean?
- 2:55And he's really mad about Nathan shoving him
- 2:57on his ass when he was saving him from being
- 2:59locked inside this. You could have died, dude.
- 3:02Catacombs. Yeah. This episode is going to be
- 3:05so short. We've been recording for seven minutes
- 3:09and we're already on the last scene. I'm okay
- 3:11with shorter episodes. Yeah. At least for this
- 3:14game. It's like, I don't want to say it's simple.
- 3:17It's straightforward. And there's so many movies
- 3:21that exist of the same theme that it's okay.
- 3:25We kind of know what to expect. And it's nothing
- 3:28against it. I actually like it. There's just,
- 3:30yeah, there's not a lot of theorizing to do.
- 3:33Anyway, chapter 16? Mm -hmm. I have a note. How
- 3:37the F did that open the gate? And I don't know.
- 3:41You jumping across things and pulling the bows,
- 3:43I think, that unleashed two doors. Maybe. Obviously,
- 3:48I was not thrilled with that part of the gameplay.
- 3:51Eddie seems to have decided to stay and fight
- 3:54for the treasure despite being fired. He busts
- 3:57in and challenges Nathan in this underground
- 3:59city -like area that they're in. And then my
- 4:02next note is, what was that noise? After many
- 4:12shootouts, we make it to a circular room where
- 4:14we find the body of Francis Drake in surprisingly
- 4:17good condition. How does hair not disintegrate
- 4:20in that situation? How is there so facial hair
- 4:23and a mustache? Didn't make sense. Or how did
- 4:27bugs not get to it? I have questions. Me too.
- 4:29But Nathan drops his ring by him and says, Wasted
- 4:33his life for nothing. See, I have a lot of issues
- 4:37at this part. Why would you leave? The ring of
- 4:39something with value and sentiment on this skeleton
- 4:42where, you know, people are going in here. They're
- 4:45just going to take the ring and maybe do something
- 4:47with it. Why wouldn't you keep that in your possession?
- 4:49Especially if it's a Drake ring and that's my
- 4:52ancestors. I agree. Dramatic. Number two, it's
- 4:56like he only cares that Drake was his ancestor
- 4:59because he thought he did something great. And
- 5:01like discovering that he died right here suddenly
- 5:04means this ancestor sucks. Right. I had some
- 5:07issues with that. I don't know. I think Nathan's
- 5:10a little disrespectful in this episode. I do
- 5:13appreciate how Elena doesn't crowd his space
- 5:16and make it about her or just fake sympathy and
- 5:20hug him and whatnot. And she's like, are you
- 5:23ready? Instead of saying, can you hurry the f***
- 5:26up? We're gonna die. Agree. Well, that's it for
- 5:31part four of gameplay. There's one part left.
- 5:34I mean, any final thoughts for you? This is the
- 5:37bridge until the final climax of the entire game.
