I'm already out of foolproof ideas

MORE UNCHARTED, which my fingers keep insisting is actually "uncharter" (I am apparently fond of adding R's into things. "Disnery" comes to mind...).

Anyway, chapters 6-12 now.


Hm. More guys shooting at me. And a room full of weapons! None of which I can pick up! … Well, I mean, I could take the gun, but I prefer the one I have. So. Alas. I really ought to use grenades more often. They'd be more useful to me that way.


Ha HA, Unexpected Quicktime! YOU DIDN'T GET US THAT TIME! No boulders to the brain for me today!


… hahaha, I'm so used to there being no background music that whenever it starts, I always immediately look around for (a) enemies and (b) places to hide.


… oh for god's sake. HERE I AM, trying to take a shortcut down the tower after fetching the keys, and TWICE NOW I have hit O one time too many and dropped from the top platform to the bottom platform to THE BOTTOM and died. STOP IT.


……. Oh look. The rope's attached. MAYBE I CAN JUMP AND GRAB IT.

Oooor maybe not.

WE'LL GET IT NEXT TIME, NATE, I PROMISE.

YOU KNOW. By just grabbing the rope at the top of the tower, and all. ALL MY SHAME.


Totally expected there to be an army of bad guys on the other side of this door.


Aw, hell, it's another turret.



… BUT NOW IT'S *MY* TURRET. YEAH! NOT SO FUN NOW, HUH?


Nate, haven't you got a light? I know you used to. Maybe you left it on the plane. Because it is dark in here and I wish to see.



THAT, SIR, IS A FANTASTIC QUESTION. Yes, where is Elena? She's off being awesome. WITHOUT YOU.


RAR WALL CLIMBING PUZZLE

(by which, of course, I mean, FALLING TO MY DEATH REPEATEDLY)


It's okay, though, I did finally figure it out.


NATE FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, after all I did to keep you safe and you go and get caught like that?!

… kinda interesting they're catching me now instead of killing me, though, gotta admit.

HI ELENA HI are you here to rescue me??? Haha! Excellent! (She laughs, too! Who does he think he is, needing to rescue her? She is not the one in a cage!)

Hey, uh, Eddy, was it? Stop shooting at me and maybe your men will stop dying quite so much, yeah? I mean, that won't help with whatever's ganking 'em elsewise, but… every little bit?

How much trouble could one girl be? Well, those sound like some famous last words. C'mon, Elena! Show him how awesome you are.

Hahaha THE WHOLE WALL!

Nathan, I swear to god, if you don't take that piece of paper out of his hands… okay, thank you.


Also, I thought for a second that she was moving over so Nate could drive and I was ANNOYED but not! He is banished to the back.


(wtf is "buka pintu" anyway)


[Ah. Thank you, internet.
Drake: Buka Pintu! (Open the door!)
Guy: Siapa ini? Bicara sekarang? (Who is this? Tell me now!)
Drake: Sialan lo! Cepatan! Buka pintu (WTH! Hurry up! Open the door!)

... XDDD This was in the top search results.]



UNLIMITED GRENADE LAUNCHING CAPABILITIES BOOYAH


Tricking them into driving into each other = best.



… oh jesus I see where this is heading.

BUT THAT IS OKAY because I have company, and the sea monsters usually don't show up when there's two people flailing about.


Nate, if anything, you are gonna be the bullet-riddled corpse. You're probably just being angsty about Sully, but I am 99.9% sure he's fine and will pop up again later, so just relax. (Or, if you are that worried, Elena and I will go on and you can just… do whatever.) Yeah, see, she's not having your bullshit, either. Sorry. -10 to the machismo.

Hey, if you're driving, she's shooting, so, uh. Well, why not.



What!? The whole city's flooded!? HOLY SHIT! I'd never have noticed! Thank you for informing me. ._.

NATE YOU ARE A TERRIBLE JETSKI DRIVER.

… Elena, whole colonies have up and vanished before. (They even made a Supernatural episode about it once!)


What? Aww, man! She's ditching me.

FINE. I'll go look for a route BY. MY. SELF.

:<


AND THEN I'LL FALL IN THE LAKE AND DIE. YAY!


Oooh, chapter 9!


More jetski, more bad guys blowing my face off… More dilapidated buildings and the climbing thereof! I really like that last one, though, it's fun.

EXCEPT WHAT ARE YOU CLOWNS DOING HERE don't you realize what a chore it is to get up here and that only complete lunatics would be doing this…?


…. Nate, wouldn't it have been better to yell "stand back" BEFORE you started shooting at the door?


Chapter 10!

Wow, I didn't have much to say for chapter 9, huh?


SE HABLA ESPAÑOL.

¡NO COMPRENDO!

(Nate is omni-lingual, apparently.)

The last entry is of the statue. How ominous.



AND NOW, A MILLION BADDIES.

And now Elena opts to remain behind again. Elenaaaa. :(



MOAR QUICKTIME! Well. Sort of. There was a pretty big window on that one.


I just inexplicably thought I was at Purgonorgo Isle for a moment there. Woow, what the hell, brain.

Anyway, I like this room. Oh, sure, it's full of guys trying to kill me, but there're plenty of hiding spaces, and lots of nice weapons to club them all to death with. (SNIPER RIFLE! Of course, I only found that one after I killed everybody, but what the hey! I'll drag it along in place of my 47.)


Oh, hey, uh. You're back! Yay! Nate and I are slightly bewildered by this. HOW? (Me, I think she can just phase through walls.)

Oh! What shock! Sully is alive and with the bad guys! Goodness me.


And there went the boat. Toodles!

(aaaa the water is so pretty!)

I can't jump off the dock.


So I was GOING to admire the scenery for a moment, but NOOOOO, some ass with a gun had to come along and ruin my day. UGH! Get outta here!


… wow, this is a "sketchy-ass bridge" (to steal my brother's words).

Saw that coming!

NOOOO! THE VIDEO CAMERA! WTF! Nate, you suck.


AND NOW MORE JETSKI. So we can get to the Monastery.

So, I know the chapter is called "Heading Upriver" but what happens if you let the current pull you along? Other than a probable death? Maybe you go over a waterfall! I am not going to find out today.

PUTT-PUTT, FOOLS!

Where the fuck are all these barrels coming from? Geez, it's a good thing I've been practicing my "hitting the target without pausing to aim first" skills… (It's kinda fun, and with the amount of weapons I've been finding lately, ammo's not really a problem.)

Though being able to hit a target without aiming … dooooesn't really help when you drive yourself into the rocks and get stuck there.

Also, oh, apparently there's like 12 (well, at least 5, anyway) guys around that corner, no wonder I keep dying.

WHAT. "OH NO" WHAT. THEY ARE ALL DEAD ALREADY, YOU JUST KILLED THEM, DON'T YOU "OH NO" ME.


NATE. Those ones AREN'T STANDING NEAR A BARREL. >___> Git'cher eyes checked!


Man. This is really the little jetski that could, hahaHARG SPOKE TOO SOON hahahaha

Right as I went up over a waterfall, a barrel came over it. That ended badly.


I HAVE TO FIGHT A MAN WITH A GRENADE LAUNCHER ON A JETSKI IN A STRONG CURRENT? ARE YOU JOKING?

Round one of JUST RUN AAAA almost succeeded, so I will give it a second shot.

WHOOO! This is definitely another one of those times when my inability to drive in anything even remotely resembling a reasonable and predictable manner has come in handy.


Oh, and that was the end. Yay! I survived!




GRAVITY: 8
Jetski Barrel Failure: 2
SNIPED OFF THE JETSKI: 6
GONE SWIMMING (gravity over water): 2
CITY RUINS BADDIES: 4


And now, sleep.

(And futile hopes that it won't be so cold tomorrow as it was today. Work, why are you so far away? AND BUSES. WHY YOU NO RUN ON WEEKENDS?)

I love Elena ♥. (I also love that pony-Drake picture. Hee!)

So I was GOING to admire the scenery for a moment, but NOOOOO, some ass with a gun had to come along and ruin my day.

This happened to me in the third game, when I was admiring the desert from a plane. Ah, what a beautiful PUNCH IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD.

Oh, man, I hated the 'Heading Upriver' chapter. There is no reason for the river to be that explosive.

She is amazing oh my gosh. (Pony-Drake is also pretty great.)

They really are bad people, aren't they? NO APPRECIATION FOR SCENERY-ADMIRATION.

It's like, I have a hard enough time navigating as it is! Why are you making me dodge barrels of death?! At least it's behind me now.
