00:00:00 --> 00:00:04 Back with another morning recording. It's 1220.
00:00:07 --> 00:00:13 On a Sunday, so that's early. I am drinking coffee
00:00:13 --> 00:00:18 right now, to be fair. Thank you for coming back
00:00:18 --> 00:00:20 from our replay reviews. My name is Leah. And
00:00:20 --> 00:00:22 my name is Kathy. We are two friends who are
00:00:22 --> 00:00:25 here to replay, review, and analyze your favorite
00:00:25 --> 00:00:27 video games. And since Kathy has never seen the
00:00:27 --> 00:00:29 games before, it helps me view them through her
00:00:29 --> 00:00:31 fresh eyes, almost like I'm discovering them
00:00:31 --> 00:00:33 again for the first time. We hope it will be
00:00:33 --> 00:00:42 a similar experience for you. In this episode,
00:00:42 --> 00:00:46 somehow we're in a sewer again, but this time
00:00:46 --> 00:00:50 it's for the plot. Is she a robot? And Playboy
00:00:50 --> 00:00:53 Steve really needs to keep some things to himself.
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56 Vito is released from prison early and picks
00:00:56 --> 00:00:59 up right where he left off. Though his first
00:00:59 --> 00:01:02 day of freedom does not go as planned. So chapter
00:01:02 --> 00:01:07 7. In loving memory of Francesco Potenza. Do
00:01:07 --> 00:01:09 we even meet that person? I don't know if we
00:01:09 --> 00:01:14 do. Is that the dead body? Maybe. Frankie, I
00:01:14 --> 00:01:18 guess? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I think so. Anyway,
00:01:18 --> 00:01:22 Empire Bay, April 10th, 1951. Galante did manage
00:01:22 --> 00:01:26 to reduce Vito's sentence by four years. As he's
00:01:26 --> 00:01:29 released, he says, it's a whole new world. No,
00:01:29 --> 00:01:33 it's just not winter anymore, Vito. It's that,
00:01:33 --> 00:01:37 but it's females dress less conservative. Because
00:01:37 --> 00:01:40 that camera immediately pans over to them. You
00:01:40 --> 00:01:44 were like, is she naked? The color was off. She
00:01:44 --> 00:01:48 was not, in fact, naked. Backless dress, people.
00:01:50 --> 00:01:54 Unsurprisingly. Vito heads to Joe's and he has
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56 an apartment secured for him and also gives him
00:01:56 --> 00:01:59 some money and a gun and says that he needs to
00:01:59 --> 00:02:02 introduce Vito to someone. We both reacted to
00:02:02 --> 00:02:05 the gun placement. And she's on the couch. Why
00:02:05 --> 00:02:08 is it so casually placed there? Tossed it on
00:02:08 --> 00:02:12 the couch when he came home last night. God forbid
00:02:12 --> 00:02:16 someone sit on it. I don't understand why the
00:02:16 --> 00:02:19 first thing he does coming out of jail is to
00:02:19 --> 00:02:23 see Joe. and not maybe his sister or pay his
00:02:23 --> 00:02:26 respects to his mom's grave. Like, he completely
00:02:26 --> 00:02:29 forgets about his sister and his mom at this
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31 point. And I'm done with him. I don't know if
00:02:31 --> 00:02:34 we ever get mention of his mother again, if I'm
00:02:34 --> 00:02:38 being honest. I don't recall. But I agree with
00:02:38 --> 00:02:41 you. They drive off to Vita's apartment, and
00:02:41 --> 00:02:44 we learn that Joe hasn't seen Henry in a few
00:02:44 --> 00:02:47 years, and that he is now working for the Falcone
00:02:47 --> 00:02:50 family. this is gonna get them killed by changing
00:02:50 --> 00:02:53 families i don't know what the loyalty stuff
00:02:53 --> 00:02:59 is gonna be like but i think this is gonna backfire
00:02:59 --> 00:03:02 yeah i mean i guess they were being lied to and
00:03:02 --> 00:03:08 extorted for the five grand but still risky all
00:03:08 --> 00:03:11 dressed up at joe's we meet eddie scarpa and
00:03:11 --> 00:03:14 they head out for a drink scarpa says don't let
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16 me drink too much i gotta take care of something
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18 later I hate that. If you don't want to drink
00:03:18 --> 00:03:22 too much, that's on you. Yeah. Stop making it
00:03:22 --> 00:03:25 other people's problem that you can't get your
00:03:25 --> 00:03:28 own things done in all your decks in a row. I
00:03:28 --> 00:03:31 don't know if you want to do your notes. My next
00:03:31 --> 00:03:33 one is just why the is he doing this during a
00:03:33 --> 00:03:38 conversation? That's my note. So the next part,
00:03:38 --> 00:03:42 we're in the club. We see a lot of stuff. And
00:03:42 --> 00:03:46 then we also see Eddie having a conversation.
00:03:47 --> 00:03:49 While multitasking. I don't know. He's being
00:03:49 --> 00:03:54 attended to. Yeah. By someone's mouth. And so...
00:03:54 --> 00:03:58 It's unnecessary. It kind of reminds me of Nishitani.
00:03:59 --> 00:04:01 It's way worse. But it makes that scene a little
00:04:01 --> 00:04:04 bit better. A lot better. Also, why does this
00:04:04 --> 00:04:09 lady look like a robot? Like, she looks not okay.
00:04:10 --> 00:04:13 And her neck is outstretched long like a turtle.
00:04:14 --> 00:04:19 And the face she's making is like... freaking
00:04:19 --> 00:04:24 drunk eddie is pretty much throwing really mean
00:04:24 --> 00:04:27 they're not slurs but i mean just really not
00:04:27 --> 00:04:31 nice words they should be naming them yeah i'll
00:04:31 --> 00:04:37 say it come dumpster and this entire scene made
00:04:37 --> 00:04:41 me so uncomfortable like why i don't know if
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43 it made it better or worse that the animation
00:04:43 --> 00:04:50 is so Eddie offers to let Vito in on the work
00:04:50 --> 00:04:53 for Falcone. He accepts. He's way too excited
00:04:53 --> 00:04:56 about it. And then as the night goes on, Joe
00:04:56 --> 00:05:00 and Eddie are just absolutely drunk. Poor Vito.
00:05:00 --> 00:05:03 I think this is maybe the only time that we can
00:05:03 --> 00:05:05 say poor Vito and actually mean it. Yeah, that
00:05:05 --> 00:05:10 is true. So they're leaving. Vito has to drive
00:05:10 --> 00:05:14 because he's the least drunk. And it takes the
00:05:14 --> 00:05:17 two of them forever to get into the car. And
00:05:17 --> 00:05:21 it irritates me so much. You're done with it.
00:05:21 --> 00:05:23 And then what's going to be even more irritating
00:05:23 --> 00:05:28 is that we learn the reason why Eddie said don't
00:05:28 --> 00:05:30 let me get too drunk is because there's a freaking
00:05:30 --> 00:05:33 dead body in the trunk. And I'm not saying that
00:05:33 --> 00:05:36 it's like a recent dead body. This is like there's
00:05:36 --> 00:05:41 flies around this body that's white. Blood has
00:05:41 --> 00:05:46 been drained from it. Yeah. You wonder what would
00:05:46 --> 00:05:48 have happened if they didn't smell the smell.
00:05:49 --> 00:05:52 Eddie just going, must be Frankie Potts. Why
00:05:52 --> 00:05:55 isn't he prioritizing taking care of the dead
00:05:55 --> 00:06:00 body before going to the club? He has a problem.
00:06:00 --> 00:06:04 Maybe two. Maybe two addictions at play here.
00:06:04 --> 00:06:09 So poor Vito has to drive to the grave that has
00:06:09 --> 00:06:12 already been dug and... Bury Frankie Potts in
00:06:12 --> 00:06:14 it. And then drive them home while they're singing
00:06:14 --> 00:06:19 to the radio. I will say it is nice to see Vito
00:06:19 --> 00:06:22 get irritated. Like he doesn't like the situation.
00:06:22 --> 00:06:25 Kind of like how in a previous game in Red Dead
00:06:25 --> 00:06:28 Redemption, I wanted John to be irritated. It's
00:06:28 --> 00:06:32 nice to see Vito be irritated. I agree. And the
00:06:32 --> 00:06:35 next day he's still irritated. So should we move
00:06:35 --> 00:06:38 on to... I don't know if it's the next day. Hold
00:06:38 --> 00:06:41 on. It is the next day. Okay. So let's move on
00:06:41 --> 00:06:43 to scene two then, which is chapter eight, The
00:06:43 --> 00:06:49 Wild Ones, Uptown, April 11th, 1951. Some guy
00:06:49 --> 00:06:52 who we'll learn is named Marty is tossing rocks
00:06:52 --> 00:06:54 at Vito's window, and he and Joe call him down
00:06:54 --> 00:06:58 once he's awake. Joe asks Vito to drive the truck
00:06:58 --> 00:07:01 in his possession to Riverside because it's going
00:07:01 --> 00:07:04 to make them some cash. Marty's gone, but we
00:07:04 --> 00:07:06 learn that he was a kid that lived down the street
00:07:06 --> 00:07:09 from Joe years ago. So it turns out the truck
00:07:09 --> 00:07:11 is full of cigarettes and they're selling them.
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14 And in the truck on the drive, we learn that
00:07:14 --> 00:07:16 Marty doesn't work for Eddie. He's not even 18.
00:07:17 --> 00:07:21 But he runs errands, etc. for Joe. Vito gives
00:07:21 --> 00:07:23 him a little bit of gruff about this, which I
00:07:23 --> 00:07:26 kind of appreciate that he's... I feel like he
00:07:26 --> 00:07:28 could... This could be a redeeming quality for
00:07:28 --> 00:07:30 Vito that he maybe kind of sees Marty as himself
00:07:30 --> 00:07:34 a little bit. Sort of being led into this too
00:07:34 --> 00:07:37 young. I didn't really think much about that.
00:07:37 --> 00:07:40 I just... Remember thinking how much you really
00:07:40 --> 00:07:45 were annoyed by Marty's voice? I can't even do
00:07:45 --> 00:07:55 it. Well, insert it. They park and you get these
00:07:55 --> 00:08:00 greasy looking men come out and they're like,
00:08:00 --> 00:08:03 ho, ho, ho, I'm the bigger macho dude right here.
00:08:04 --> 00:08:07 After a bit of escalation, it really escalates
00:08:07 --> 00:08:12 because Joe just shoots him. I mean, they did
00:08:12 --> 00:08:17 throw a Molotov cocktail or whatever that thing
00:08:17 --> 00:08:20 is. So yeah, they kind of did start it. But for
00:08:20 --> 00:08:24 Joe to go straight into murder? Point blank,
00:08:24 --> 00:08:27 pretty much. Right in the face, chest, I'm not
00:08:27 --> 00:08:32 sure. He did not like being called Porky. And
00:08:32 --> 00:08:34 why are they just like... Circling around in
00:08:34 --> 00:08:37 those cars looking stupid. Yeah. Looking out
00:08:37 --> 00:08:41 the window. They chase after them, but lose them.
00:08:42 --> 00:08:45 I lose them. And so then they call Eddie, who's
00:08:45 --> 00:08:48 pissed. He paid $2 for the truck and wants
00:08:48 --> 00:08:51 his money back. However, he also happens to be
00:08:51 --> 00:08:54 meeting Steve, or meeting with Steve, the guy
00:08:54 --> 00:08:57 from the dock, about how to handle the same gang.
00:08:57 --> 00:08:59 And they say they're going to attack them, but
00:08:59 --> 00:09:05 no shooting. Too late for that. And then Joe
00:09:05 --> 00:09:07 says, what's Steve doing working for Eddie? He
00:09:07 --> 00:09:09 works for Derek, and Derek's with Vinci's crew.
00:09:09 --> 00:09:12 Vito responds, how the hell should I know? Which,
00:09:12 --> 00:09:15 fair enough, but Joe's asking a valid question
00:09:15 --> 00:09:17 here. It seems like there's a lot of cross -pollination
00:09:17 --> 00:09:20 going on. Well, the fact that Joe's smart enough
00:09:20 --> 00:09:22 to ask a question is a bit surprising for me,
00:09:22 --> 00:09:28 but it's kind of a hypocrite because Joe was
00:09:28 --> 00:09:32 one to switch loyalties, so okay. Steve wants
00:09:32 --> 00:09:34 to switch, but this is also, like, foreshadowing
00:09:34 --> 00:09:36 probably an all -out war between all the families.
00:09:36 --> 00:09:39 I guess Joe fully flipped. You know, it seems
00:09:39 --> 00:09:44 like Steve's maybe just involved with both. But
00:09:44 --> 00:09:46 I don't know. Is that allowed? I don't know.
00:09:48 --> 00:09:50 At the meetup, Joe is surprised to see that Marty
00:09:50 --> 00:09:53 will be participating. They shoot up the gang's
00:09:53 --> 00:09:56 bar, even though Eddie said no guns, so immediately
00:09:56 --> 00:10:00 we break that rule. Next, they go to the foundry
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03 to confront the gang, who have guns, so they
00:10:03 --> 00:10:05 have to shoot back. I don't think anyone's disappointed
00:10:05 --> 00:10:08 about the shootout, though. They kill pretty
00:10:08 --> 00:10:10 much all of them. Vito is worried about how Eddie
00:10:10 --> 00:10:13 will react, but Steve isn't. Vito and Joe steal
00:10:13 --> 00:10:15 some cars from the gang to earn the two grand
00:10:15 --> 00:10:19 that Eddie is owed. And of course, Joe is the
00:10:19 --> 00:10:23 one taking the lead, taking the cash. How is
00:10:23 --> 00:10:26 Vito okay with this? I get that Joe hasn't betrayed
00:10:26 --> 00:10:30 him quite yet. But seeing small instances of
00:10:30 --> 00:10:33 this, why is Joe the one taking the cash? I don't
00:10:33 --> 00:10:35 know. Because for a while now, it's been the
00:10:35 --> 00:10:37 two of them, so it's not like he's... I mean,
00:10:37 --> 00:10:39 he's fresh out of jail, but he's not new. You
00:10:39 --> 00:10:43 know. After paying him, though, Joe asks if he
00:10:43 --> 00:10:46 needs anything else from them. As he says he's
00:10:46 --> 00:10:50 got something he's gotta take care of. Uh, what
00:10:50 --> 00:10:54 might that be? Suspicious? I just feel like Joe
00:10:54 --> 00:10:58 is going to betray Vito. There's no way that
00:10:58 --> 00:11:01 that's not happening. Anything else on scene
00:11:01 --> 00:11:03 two or should we move on to chapter nine? Let's
00:11:03 --> 00:11:07 go to chapter nine. All right. Balls and Beans
00:11:07 --> 00:11:11 is the name of the chapter. Uptown May 6, 1951.
00:11:11 --> 00:11:13 Also, they really one -upped my out -of -context
00:11:13 --> 00:11:16 summary with this chapter title. Sofito is woken
00:11:16 --> 00:11:18 up by a phone call from Joe, who says they have
00:11:18 --> 00:11:20 a situation and to meet him at the bar with a
00:11:20 --> 00:11:24 gun and a decent car. So at the bar... Eddie
00:11:24 --> 00:11:28 introduces Vito to Carlo Falcone, who asks Vito
00:11:28 --> 00:11:31 how he feels about Clemente and Guarino. Obviously,
00:11:31 --> 00:11:33 he's not a fan after they tried to swindle him
00:11:33 --> 00:11:35 for the five grand, and Falcone says that they're
00:11:35 --> 00:11:38 planning to make a move on him, so they have
00:11:38 --> 00:11:41 to strike first. Falcone leaves, and Eddie fills
00:11:41 --> 00:11:43 Vito in. He says three of their guys, Beans,
00:11:43 --> 00:11:47 Balls, and Frankie, are missing. He says Guarino
00:11:47 --> 00:11:50 is suspected to be responsible, and that Beans
00:11:50 --> 00:11:52 is Carlo's accountant. If he talks, we're all
00:11:52 --> 00:11:55 fucked. Vito's job is to tail Guarino to see
00:11:55 --> 00:11:58 if he's involved and rescue any of their men
00:11:58 --> 00:12:01 if he comes across them in the process. So the
00:12:01 --> 00:12:04 whole thing about the accountant being captured
00:12:04 --> 00:12:08 is, again, maybe it's just a general theme in
00:12:08 --> 00:12:11 Mafia stuff, but in Mafia 1 we also have the
00:12:11 --> 00:12:14 accountant, that one for sure was betraying them,
00:12:14 --> 00:12:17 but this one is, I don't know if he would betray
00:12:17 --> 00:12:20 them or if it's just the other side of... accounting
00:12:20 --> 00:12:23 life where you get captured and you're tortured
00:12:23 --> 00:12:26 and you're forced to reveal your things. Watch
00:12:26 --> 00:12:30 out, Kathy. I know. You might be on a list. I
00:12:30 --> 00:12:32 know. Also, why do they all have the same glasses?
00:12:35 --> 00:12:37 It's a special accounting society where we all
00:12:37 --> 00:12:42 have to wear matching glasses. Pull them out.
00:12:42 --> 00:12:47 Let me see. So he tracks Garino to Clemente's
00:12:47 --> 00:12:50 slaughterhouse and... I thought we could maybe
00:12:50 --> 00:12:55 talk to that guy that falls. But no. He just
00:12:55 --> 00:12:59 stumbles off. Vito spots, or he sneaks his way
00:12:59 --> 00:13:04 into the slaughterhouse through the sewer. We're
00:13:04 --> 00:13:07 back to the poop tubes. He has some bad timing
00:13:07 --> 00:13:11 and he gets showered with poopy. That's so gross.
00:13:12 --> 00:13:17 Disgusting. Vito sneaks around the slaughterhouse
00:13:17 --> 00:13:19 and spots the missing men and sneakily makes
00:13:19 --> 00:13:24 his way over to them. However, the smell of the
00:13:24 --> 00:13:28 poop and pee atop him gives him away. They smell
00:13:28 --> 00:13:31 him before they see him. That's so disturbing.
00:13:32 --> 00:13:36 How bad do you think he smells for other people
00:13:36 --> 00:13:39 to be alerted? I've gone camping with vault toilets
00:13:39 --> 00:13:43 before, and those are pretty bad. But if you
00:13:43 --> 00:13:45 have to go to the bathroom, you're going to put
00:13:45 --> 00:13:49 up with it, you know? But I think for it to smell
00:13:49 --> 00:13:53 worse than a slaughterhouse is pretty telling.
00:13:54 --> 00:13:57 It probably burnt your eyes a little bit. So
00:13:57 --> 00:14:00 we're at the slaughterhouse. There's pigs and
00:14:00 --> 00:14:03 humans being dangling from those hooks thing.
00:14:03 --> 00:14:07 And then we meet Luca again. I didn't take any
00:14:07 --> 00:14:09 notes about the conversation, but I just remember
00:14:09 --> 00:14:13 Vito then getting... pretty much beaten up, and
00:14:13 --> 00:14:14 so I guess what he learned in jail wasn't enough
00:14:14 --> 00:14:17 for him. He has to fight this big guy, who looks
00:14:17 --> 00:14:19 like he's wearing the same outfit as one of their
00:14:19 --> 00:14:22 men, so I got confused. But we win the fight.
00:14:23 --> 00:14:25 Frankie's dead, but the other two, Balls and
00:14:25 --> 00:14:29 Beans, are still alive. Balls wants to torture
00:14:29 --> 00:14:31 Garino despite Vito saying that Eddie asked him
00:14:31 --> 00:14:33 to take care of him personally. And I feel like
00:14:33 --> 00:14:35 that could come back to bite him. I was just
00:14:35 --> 00:14:38 thinking about that, too, because he's pretty
00:14:38 --> 00:14:39 adamant. And then the moment the guy's like,
00:14:39 --> 00:14:42 but I want him to die a slow death. And then
00:14:42 --> 00:14:45 Vito's like, oh, okay. Had Vito not killed anyone
00:14:45 --> 00:14:48 before this, I would have been like, makes sense.
00:14:48 --> 00:14:50 He didn't want to get his hands dirty and he's
00:14:50 --> 00:14:53 still not comfortable with it yet. But I don't
00:14:53 --> 00:14:57 understand why Vito didn't stay to make sure
00:14:57 --> 00:15:00 that the job got done. Yeah, I'm surprised he
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02 didn't want to watch, honestly, because he hates
00:15:02 --> 00:15:08 this guy. So Vito fills Eddie in, who rightfully
00:15:08 --> 00:15:10 demands that he go change before returning to
00:15:10 --> 00:15:13 the bar. And once he is back in fresh clothes,
00:15:13 --> 00:15:16 Joe is there, and he tells him that they're going
00:15:16 --> 00:15:19 to be brought into the Falcone family. Galante's
00:15:19 --> 00:15:21 at the bar too, and Vito thanks him for getting
00:15:21 --> 00:15:24 him out of jail early. Galante tells him that
00:15:24 --> 00:15:27 he's making good on his second promise of recommending
00:15:27 --> 00:15:31 him. Two things. One, I could not recognize Galante.
00:15:32 --> 00:15:35 Normal clothing? I was like, who is that? He's
00:15:35 --> 00:15:38 not in his uniform. Yeah, exactly. And two, why
00:15:38 --> 00:15:41 does Vito look so excited to be in the mafia?
00:15:42 --> 00:15:44 I don't get it. I mean, I guess he'll kind of
00:15:44 --> 00:15:46 explain it at the end. So maybe we should just
00:15:46 --> 00:15:50 finish up this gameplay part. So as the night
00:15:50 --> 00:15:52 goes on, both Joe and Vito are accepted into
00:15:52 --> 00:15:55 the family. Then we hear Vito in voiceover saying,
00:15:55 --> 00:15:57 You might wonder why I'd take this risk again.
00:15:57 --> 00:15:59 I have to spend almost seven years in a can.
00:16:00 --> 00:16:03 You see, where I grew up, the only guys who mattered
00:16:03 --> 00:16:04 were the guys who had the balls to take what
00:16:04 --> 00:16:07 they wanted. I don't know why he paused and said
00:16:07 --> 00:16:13 balls like that. Okay, I... I don't know if I
00:16:13 --> 00:16:15 like that. I feel like it's a cheap cop -out
00:16:15 --> 00:16:18 to immediately put words in there just to kind
00:16:18 --> 00:16:21 of tie it. Maybe as a kid during that intro scene.
00:16:21 --> 00:16:23 They should have set that up as part of the storyline
00:16:23 --> 00:16:26 saying that he saw other kids getting beaten
00:16:26 --> 00:16:29 up and then the mafia people came out and protected
00:16:29 --> 00:16:32 them but also took from them. But that's who
00:16:32 --> 00:16:36 has that chain of command. And therefore, Vito
00:16:36 --> 00:16:39 has always wanted to be in the mafia. That would
00:16:39 --> 00:16:42 have made more sense. You just saying three sentences,
00:16:42 --> 00:16:45 not you, but the game saying three sentences
00:16:45 --> 00:16:49 towards the end of this chapter just to make
00:16:49 --> 00:16:52 it give some justification is terrible right
00:16:52 --> 00:16:55 bad planning on their part for not setting up
00:16:55 --> 00:16:58 this character arc and background it would have
00:16:58 --> 00:17:02 been so easy just to add a scene of yeah feto
00:17:02 --> 00:17:06 just being impressed admiring the power that
00:17:06 --> 00:17:08 he sees with the the men in the mafia as a kid
00:17:08 --> 00:17:11 that would leave an impression as a child and
00:17:11 --> 00:17:13 he ends up by saying i was willing to risk anything
00:17:13 --> 00:17:18 to finally be somebody Shut up, Vito. Maybe you
00:17:18 --> 00:17:20 could focus on being a good son and brother.
00:17:21 --> 00:17:25 Maybe there's that. Too late on the son part.
00:17:25 --> 00:17:30 And then we hear, I don't think it's Falcone,
00:17:30 --> 00:17:32 but one of his right -hand men go, no dope, that's
00:17:32 --> 00:17:34 our policy, which seems to be a running theme
00:17:34 --> 00:17:37 in these games. And then we get a montage of
00:17:37 --> 00:17:40 Joe and Vito living the life and benefiting from
00:17:40 --> 00:17:45 it. That is so cringy and silly and stupid for
00:17:45 --> 00:17:49 that ending. It's almost the equivalent of a
00:17:49 --> 00:17:52 couple frolicking through the fields in a meadow
00:17:52 --> 00:17:56 of just having happy, happy times. But then just
00:17:56 --> 00:18:01 punching someone out. There's that. So I just
00:18:01 --> 00:18:07 think it's a stupid way to end the scene. I agree.
00:18:08 --> 00:18:14 Not a big fan of this game so far. That's why
00:18:14 --> 00:18:17 it took me two times to play it. And a lot of
00:18:17 --> 00:18:21 editing. Well, those were all my notes. Did you
00:18:21 --> 00:18:23 have anything else on part three or should we
00:18:23 --> 00:18:26 close it out? I did have one quick note. During
00:18:26 --> 00:18:29 the whole initiation process of going into the
00:18:29 --> 00:18:32 mafia or for their family, that's crazy intense
00:18:32 --> 00:18:34 having a burning sheet of paper so literally
00:18:34 --> 00:18:39 holding fire in your hands. I guess the only
00:18:39 --> 00:18:40 way to tell which family they are, if you look
00:18:40 --> 00:18:44 at everyone's palms, and if there's third -degree
00:18:44 --> 00:18:46 burns, that's how you know they're with the Falcone
00:18:46 --> 00:18:50 family. Also, why was the knife so giant to just
00:18:50 --> 00:18:52 do a little pinprick? I was worried they were
00:18:52 --> 00:18:55 going to cut the finger off. Could have used
00:18:55 --> 00:18:57 a steak knife, if we're being honest. Yeah, the
00:18:57 --> 00:19:01 drama. And the music that they wanted us to be
00:19:01 --> 00:19:04 sad or something? I don't know. Yeah, that or
00:19:04 --> 00:19:08 being really... emotional and happy for him i
00:19:08 --> 00:19:11 don't know what was going on but didn't work
00:19:11 --> 00:19:14 yeah i feel like i'm such a big critic in these
00:19:14 --> 00:19:16 games because i'm always pointing out the bad
00:19:16 --> 00:19:18 things like i didn't like this i didn't like
00:19:18 --> 00:19:22 when john was just um not being strong enough
00:19:22 --> 00:19:24 and and i have so much critique about all the
00:19:24 --> 00:19:27 video games we play i feel like such a debbie
00:19:27 --> 00:19:29 downer and it didn't hit me until how much i'm
00:19:29 --> 00:19:33 hating on veto in this game so far and i'm like
00:19:33 --> 00:19:36 okay i promise you guys that i'm a lot More positive.
00:19:37 --> 00:19:47 Well, no, I'm kidding. Well, on that note, should
00:19:47 --> 00:19:51 we close it out? Yeah. Audacity on one. Three,
00:19:51 --> 00:19:54 two, one. Thank you for listening, and don't
