00:00:01 --> 00:00:03 Thank you for coming back from our replay reviews.
00:00:03 --> 00:00:06 My name is Leah. And my name is Kathy. We are
00:00:06 --> 00:00:08 two friends who are here to replay, review, and
00:00:08 --> 00:00:11 analyze your favorite video games. And since
00:00:11 --> 00:00:13 Kathy has never seen the games before, it helps
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15 me view them through her fresh eyes, almost like
00:00:15 --> 00:00:17 I'm discovering them again for the first time.
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19 We hope it will be a similar experience for you.
00:00:26 --> 00:00:33 I mean, what's left to say? Not much. Well, first
00:00:33 --> 00:00:36 of all, welcome to the Uncharted summary. We
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38 have some burning questions, but we couldn't
00:00:38 --> 00:00:41 find any answers. In fact, all I found for my
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43 burning question, which is who closed the artifact,
00:00:43 --> 00:00:46 all I found in my search is another question,
00:00:46 --> 00:00:50 which was who set the traps, which was a fair
00:00:50 --> 00:00:54 question. They used pieces of their plane to
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56 build it, so obviously it's someone new. yeah
00:00:56 --> 00:00:59 anyway another burning question maybe navarro
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01 because he seems to know about everything i feel
00:01:01 --> 00:01:05 like that's better speculation than my burning
00:01:05 --> 00:01:08 question which was who was inside the treasure
00:01:08 --> 00:01:12 like the statue and i couldn't find an answer
00:01:12 --> 00:01:15 i think it goes into another game because maybe
00:01:15 --> 00:01:17 i just wasn't using the right keywords so it's
00:01:17 --> 00:01:20 searching it it talked about game four and it
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22 was bouncing between different games anyways
00:01:22 --> 00:01:26 i just got too confused and i decided to not
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28 go too far into my research to not spoil things
00:01:28 --> 00:01:33 yeah our questions just led to more questions
00:01:33 --> 00:01:36 no answers and maybe they're not that big of
00:01:36 --> 00:01:38 a deal just a little bit of you know they didn't
00:01:38 --> 00:01:42 explain it should we continue on to topic two
00:01:42 --> 00:01:45 it's overall opinion about the game i think we
00:01:45 --> 00:01:50 kind of know mine pretty well at this point wasn't
00:01:50 --> 00:01:52 thrilled with the gameplay i like the story i
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54 have no issues with it Sure, they could have
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56 done things a little better here and there. But
00:01:56 --> 00:02:01 honestly, I liked it. So I get the benefit by
00:02:01 --> 00:02:03 not needing to play and focusing on just watching.
00:02:03 --> 00:02:09 And we did do a 400th episode where I did a jet
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11 ski thing. And I understand it's not really fun.
00:02:11 --> 00:02:13 It's very frustrating. But if you focus on just
00:02:13 --> 00:02:16 the storyline, I like how nostalgic it feels.
00:02:16 --> 00:02:19 It's like your typical early 2000s adventure
00:02:19 --> 00:02:22 movie, like Journey to the Earth. It's lighthearted.
00:02:22 --> 00:02:26 It's straightforward. I like the storyline. But
00:02:26 --> 00:02:29 I also don't know if this is a series that we
00:02:29 --> 00:02:32 want to continue going on for a podcast or just
00:02:32 --> 00:02:35 for in general playing this game. I have a feeling
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37 that the rest of the games are just going to
00:02:37 --> 00:02:39 be a repeat of this game just because of how
00:02:39 --> 00:02:43 straightforward the plot is. All I know is that
00:02:43 --> 00:02:46 the fourth one is pretty acclaimed. Okay. So
00:02:46 --> 00:02:50 I don't know. I was going to say something. Oh.
00:02:50 --> 00:02:54 When you were doing the jet ski section is when
00:02:54 --> 00:02:56 I learned you don't have to aim to shoot in that
00:02:56 --> 00:03:01 section. You were just blasting and hitting targets.
00:03:01 --> 00:03:03 I'm like, you're not even moving the joystick.
00:03:03 --> 00:03:06 That's because I struggled with aiming and driving
00:03:06 --> 00:03:10 and I just smashed all the buttons. I would have
00:03:10 --> 00:03:12 liked to know that game that I didn't have to
00:03:12 --> 00:03:17 actually aim to fire in that section. Well, I
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19 think that's kind of it. I mean, any other closing
00:03:19 --> 00:03:21 thoughts on this game for you? I kind of like
00:03:21 --> 00:03:24 how cutesy it kind of is without it being overly
00:03:24 --> 00:03:27 cute. It's comforting. It's comforting. I think
00:03:27 --> 00:03:28 that's what the word I'm looking for. It's a
00:03:28 --> 00:03:31 very comforting game and it's somewhat nostalgic.
00:03:31 --> 00:03:36 It has that vibe to it. All right. KFC? Yes.
00:03:37 --> 00:03:40 It's going to be very obvious and very easy,
00:03:40 --> 00:03:43 but I'll start with Steel Biscuits. There's a
00:03:43 --> 00:03:46 lot that could be thrown in there, but... I don't
00:03:46 --> 00:03:48 know if you want to take a stab at who I think
00:03:48 --> 00:03:56 my KFC is. Stale biscuit. I honestly weirdly
00:03:56 --> 00:04:00 want to say Sully. Oh, I could see that. For
00:04:00 --> 00:04:04 me, I chose Navarro just because we barely know
00:04:04 --> 00:04:06 anything about him. And last minute, he's like,
00:04:06 --> 00:04:09 haha, I'm your villain. He's just there in the
00:04:09 --> 00:04:12 background. He's just stale. I think this is
00:04:12 --> 00:04:15 what I have to disagree with you on. I was going
00:04:15 --> 00:04:17 to say it was between Eddie and Sully. I could
00:04:17 --> 00:04:21 see Eddie. Yeah, I see your logic. I wouldn't
00:04:21 --> 00:04:24 pick him just because he ends up being the villain,
00:04:25 --> 00:04:28 you know? Yeah, but Eddie seems to have more
00:04:28 --> 00:04:32 scenes than Roman or Navarro. Or more backstory,
00:04:32 --> 00:04:37 at least. Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I think
00:04:37 --> 00:04:39 they're all kind of... Stale. Yeah, I think they
00:04:39 --> 00:04:43 all have kind of a claim to that. I'm fine with
00:04:43 --> 00:04:47 that. Okay, well, moving on. Post -game KFC.
00:04:47 --> 00:04:51 I think you know who it is. It has to be Nathan,
00:04:51 --> 00:04:55 right? What? What about Yelena? Oh, I thought
00:04:55 --> 00:04:59 we were on KS. Oh, no, KFC. Then, yeah, I would
00:04:59 --> 00:05:01 have said Yelena. I don't know if it's my mouth
00:05:01 --> 00:05:07 or your ears. Always. So, yeah, it is Yelena.
00:05:07 --> 00:05:10 She's smart, she's witty, she's not annoying,
00:05:10 --> 00:05:12 which is apparently very difficult for female
00:05:12 --> 00:05:15 game characters. So she wins post -game KFC.
00:05:16 --> 00:05:18 Even just one of the most realistic characters,
00:05:18 --> 00:05:22 period, that we've seen. Besides the battery
00:05:22 --> 00:05:27 thing. Yeah, come on. What was that? Moving on.
00:05:27 --> 00:05:31 Post -game KS, Kentucky Scorcher. There really
00:05:31 --> 00:05:35 is no one to pick besides Nate, so... Yep, it's
00:05:35 --> 00:05:38 Nate. I mean, the shoulder holster really sold
00:05:38 --> 00:05:43 it. Sorry, I was just reading your notes. What?
00:05:44 --> 00:05:46 I was, like, reading exactly what you just said
00:05:46 --> 00:05:50 out loud. It was funny. Okay, well, what you
00:05:50 --> 00:05:54 said back in April is, of course, first row,
00:05:54 --> 00:05:57 middle dude. That's Nathan. It's the hair, the
00:05:57 --> 00:05:59 rolled up long sleeves, and the shoulder holsters
00:05:59 --> 00:06:02 that does it for me. Oh, it's word for word.
00:06:02 --> 00:06:05 However, if I was into the bad boy type of dude,
00:06:05 --> 00:06:07 it would maybe be first row third guy. That's
00:06:07 --> 00:06:10 Navarro. But for my blind kiss, it's definitely
00:06:10 --> 00:06:13 first row middle guy, Nathan. And then, of course,
00:06:13 --> 00:06:15 you have to put your reference in there. Especially
00:06:15 --> 00:06:18 since he reminds me of Tom Hiddleston in Kong
00:06:18 --> 00:06:21 Skull Island. It's just honestly any white male
00:06:21 --> 00:06:26 wearing a shoulder holster. I don't see it. It's
00:06:26 --> 00:06:29 just the t -shirt. Exactly. I don't know why.
00:06:30 --> 00:06:35 They don't even look the same. Anyways. Yeah,
00:06:35 --> 00:06:38 I mean, I agree with you on all counts. Except
00:06:38 --> 00:06:40 Stale Biscuit, which we got into already. So
00:06:40 --> 00:06:44 I have nothing to add. Okay. There's three stats.
00:06:45 --> 00:06:47 I'll tell you. Two of them, the game tracked
00:06:47 --> 00:06:51 for me. One of them, I tracked myself. Stats?
00:06:51 --> 00:06:54 I think it's people killed. Or, like, headshots.
00:06:55 --> 00:07:00 Which one? Just kidding! Both of them! Really?
00:07:00 --> 00:07:03 It tracked it separately? Yeah. Oh, nice. Stat
00:07:03 --> 00:07:06 one was total enemies killed. Do you want to
00:07:06 --> 00:07:14 guess? 286. No. Higher? Yeah. Could it be like
00:07:14 --> 00:07:22 800? I'll do 860. 1 . What? 115 enemies killed.
00:07:22 --> 00:07:25 God, Leah. We've been complaining about the number
00:07:25 --> 00:07:26 of people on this island, and I think we were
00:07:26 --> 00:07:30 right. Yeah. How's there so many people? Well,
00:07:30 --> 00:07:32 knowing how many people I killed, do you want
00:07:32 --> 00:07:35 to guess how many headshots total? So of that
00:07:35 --> 00:07:39 1 -something, I have confidence in you,
00:07:39 --> 00:07:42 so probably more than half. I don't know, 600?
00:07:43 --> 00:07:48 No. 800 -something? No. Okay, then you're probably
00:07:48 --> 00:07:53 doing bad. 200 -something, then. 425. Oh. Hey,
00:07:54 --> 00:07:57 you should be happy that I have such faith in
00:07:57 --> 00:08:00 you for getting headshots. Yeah, I think you
00:08:00 --> 00:08:03 forgot about the first half of the game. How
00:08:03 --> 00:08:06 bad I started out. That is kind of true. I remember
00:08:06 --> 00:08:10 by part three, you were just going all the headshots.
00:08:10 --> 00:08:12 Well, I started to not care. When you don't care,
00:08:12 --> 00:08:16 you do a lot better. That is true. Okay, do you
00:08:16 --> 00:08:18 want to guess what my stat was that I tracked?
00:08:21 --> 00:08:24 You're not going to get it. Something verbal,
00:08:24 --> 00:08:29 or is it an action? It's just counting a thing,
00:08:29 --> 00:08:31 but it's not something we've done before. It's
00:08:31 --> 00:08:39 unique to this game. Ooh. How many boats? No.
00:08:40 --> 00:08:46 Let me think. Hint. Give me a hint. I don't know
00:08:46 --> 00:08:48 how to guess. I mean, you're not going to guess
00:08:48 --> 00:08:50 it. Okay. I'll just give you a good hint. Enemy.
00:08:50 --> 00:08:53 How many enemies were, like, bald? I don't know.
00:08:54 --> 00:09:00 Close. Yellow bandana eyepatch man. What is that?
00:09:00 --> 00:09:05 I'll show you. He was everywhere. This is him.
00:09:06 --> 00:09:09 Well, it has to be enough for you to notice.
00:09:09 --> 00:09:17 I'd say 82. No. 42. I'll give you a hint. When
00:09:17 --> 00:09:20 I was counting them up, I discovered there were
00:09:20 --> 00:09:23 zero of him in the final two parts of the game.
00:09:23 --> 00:09:30 Okay. I'd say 24. 21. That's close. I hate that
00:09:30 --> 00:09:34 guy. Not to be confused with Blue Bandana Eyepatch
00:09:34 --> 00:09:39 Man or Yellow Headband Man. What? All these NPCs
00:09:39 --> 00:09:44 getting just copy and pasted. Well. That's a
00:09:44 --> 00:09:50 wrap for this game. It has charm. I won't be
00:09:50 --> 00:09:54 playing it again though. Scary Christmas next
