I always think the "it aint easy" line about suicide from Joel is from experience. In the series he admits he tried suicide but failed, and I think thats what the game is hinting at here, as he thought he had nothing to live for after Sarah, then Tommy left him and the world went to shit. However with Ellie coming into his life, it gives him reason and purpose for living once more.
Haha, I love that the first set piece with the Clickers and Hunters, which is set up for you to stealth kill them, you just blasted your way through them taking about a dozen times. A good laugh! I thought with you doing that, you'd have a lot of issues in the metro section with more of them, but you did well with your stealth, all without using your listening abilities. Impressive.
"Maybe do some star jumps..." 😂 Just for comparison I probably took half an hour to figure out the frozen lake room. And even more to get the hang of the raft eaten by soooo many sharks. 😂 Honestly really loving this playthrough. Thank you.
40:34 I think that is like sea coral or something similar. Not a brain. I mean I have a massive head, and I doubt even that would be able to fit inside.
11:28 Given all the puns and one liners coming from Penguin in this scene, I'm starting to see why they cast Nolan North for the part. Some of these were Nathan Drake level.
I've been thinking about it and I just realized that I was guilty of backseat gaming. So, I apologize for that and will do my best to keep from doing it again in the future.
Thank you for saying so 🙏🏼 I know for many it comes from a place of excitement, to hope I see as much of the game as possible ☺️ You’ve always been such a positive community member, so I understand
This isn't about the game, but I did see something online today on IGN's website they posted information about a Playstation World Concert Tour, where music from games like God of War, The Last of Us, Horizon and others was going to be performed. There were several dates in the UK in April of next year, and I think tickets might be available. Sounds like it could be a good concert, so if you're interested in things like that you should check it out.
1:02:45: That was not Black Mask inside of the display case. Remember, Penguin is a collector and likes taking things from his enemies as trophies. All members of Black Mask's gang are required to wear masks, not only to conceal their faces, but because Roman Sionis has a fixation on the concept of masks and how all people are hiding what they really are under a mask of some kind. This is something that he learned from his parents who pretended to be upstanding citizens but privately, they were bitter and neglectful.
5:00 I've been a fan of this series for nearly a decade now, and I had no idea there was a gap on the fence for the RC Batarang on the left hand stairway, I've always gone through the gap on the right hand stairway, gone up it and back down the other!
Thankfully unlike whimsy you haven't got a shark phobia so a little bit easier for you 🤗 fabulous episode Nat the sheer joy you're getting from the game & dialogue is such a pleasure thank you for all you do for us 🙏🙏💖🌻🐝
Whimsy has a shark phobia!! I had no idea 😳 oh bless her for getting through, I was just giggling away… if it was a spider, well, you saw what happened in Uncharted 🤣
That whole drop kick instead of silent takedown thing could really bite you in the ass later on in this game but its also really fun to watch sooo yeah good luck.
I'm glad you're enjoying this game so much! :) It's such a good one. The museum is one of my favorite locations in this game, there's just so much detail. And Freeze is easily one of my favorite Batman villains, he's such a tragic character. Hope you keep enjoying this game as much as you are the further you go!
@@PhoenixNat Yay, I'm glad to hear that! Batman has the best rogues gallery, in my opinion, there are so many layers to them, which makes it really easy to love them- and I feel like this game really starts handling them in a way that brings that across even more. They're such well-written characters. The Batman lore in general just has great characters, his closest allies have great stories, too! But yeah, the dark settings of this game and its stories really brings across that depth they have :)
I thought I was going crazy but when you finally got close to Penguin, I realized that his character model was invisible lol. Never seen that glitch before XD
Watching you solve puzzles in this game will never not be enjoyable to watch. Also, apologies for back seating in earlier episodes. I respect that you, as a gamer, want to experience this game purely blind and I've really enjoyed seeing you improve throughout the series!
Hey I know I'm one year late but I want to share a fun fact: In the US version of this game, the sacrifice in the cage at 45:03 is actually a living soldier who will beg Kratos for mercy not to burn him alive instead of a roaring zombie😅
That officer you're stressing about died in a cutscene earlier. You, the player, are not being timed. Though, storywise, Batman is. I noticed something that might be helpful. When you're above an enemy and it says "drop attack," you don't have to do it every time. It alerts others when you do. That can be useful for luring, sure, but when an enemy is alone, it's usually better to just glide to the ground right behind him and do a silent takedown.
By the time I figured out I could change the inverted controls on the remote batarang, I was too used to it. I was wobbling and stuffing up all over the place. Even if you don't like inverted controls, it imprints into your memory more than you thought it would.
Hi Nat really ice episode the shark got me the first time i played this, also the voice actor for MR Freeze was Maurice Lamarche, really enjoying watching. hope you have a nice evening
There is a ship at Falcone Shipping that requires a password that says CITYOFTERROR which requires the Cryptographic Sequencer. It won't spoil the story it also has a special surprise for you.
🤣 you clearly haven’t watched many of my videos… apart from the fact I’ll be doing an entire riddler video, so I therefore know I’ll be coming back, puzzle games are my passion, there’s no chance of me giving up. I move on from puzzles when it’s slowing an episode down.
Freeze is one of my top 5 favorite villains he is only a bad guy out of desperation and circumstance to save his wife. And they’ve also mentioned my favorite villain The Demon’s Head, Ra’s Al Ghul.
1:13:38 Oh no definitely not, that's easily Joker. Penguin is definitely the pettiest. He's also cruel, sadistic and egotistical, but despite that he's one of the few Batman villains who is legally sane. It's why when he's arrested he is always sent to Blackgate Prison instead of Arkham Asylum.
1:07:38 Fun Fact: That is Harley Quinn's original classic design. It's Most of the design of the robots in the steel mill with the recordings. It's still to this day her best and most iconic design.
