    This is kinda what I thought when I played that part of the game.
    Also ancient caves in the uncharted universe apparently have autolighting torches.

    The title confused me, I thought this was another Extra Credits thread.

    Nathan Drake, Crusader for Social Justice!

    (I would so play that)

    The Praetorian Guard of the Roman Empire figured this out, killed their emperor, and sold the empire to the highest bidder. Pretty smart those Romans.

    Did anyone else read his dialogue in Sterling Archer's voice?

    ...I do now.

    Archer's writers need to write a game. Like right now.

    Unionize?

    Thanks for cutting into my profits drake.

    It is not as lucrative being a warlord as it once was.

    You shoot everyone. Do you know how much my premiums would rise considering I have to pay life insurance on anyone who has ever seen you EVER.

    I hire hundreds of people and share my wealth among my employees. You share your money with an old man and a girl you can't date for more than a month. You don't even spend money on new clothes or guns (which you steal from my company).

    YOU Nathan Drake are the one percent.

    I'm sure the contract was for 'at-will' employment. If you don't like it, GTFO.

    You actually need to very much. Uncharted is easily one of the best game franchises of all time. Sure, lots of soulless henchman die, but I mean, come on! They don't have souls!

    I rate these ratings "savage" and "carnivorous," but not necessarily in that order.

    i created an account just to say that while ctrl-alt-delete is running its fucking 8th panel about about a dumbass penguin genius-thing, and vgcats has now become defunct, this is the one webcomic ive been able to rely on for several years, from grade school to high school to college. I don't know if those guys read these forums, but if they do, job fucking well done

    PA is currently only two weeks shy of its 13 YEAR anniversary.

    In other words:

    EDIT: Sorry Tube.

    Slightly more on-topic: in 1998, Naughty Dog (developers of Uncharted) were still working on their first successful property: Crash Bandicoot for the PS1.

    hey, that warlord is a job creator.

    sure, 99% of his employees die...


    some of them mere days after being hired...


    in all kinds of extremely gruesome horrible ways..

    but if you Obammunist libtards want to slap him with all kinds of job-killing safety regulations, then he'll just outsource his labor to China.

    I know, right? For a second there I was almost certain the thread title changed after I clicked it. Like, I remember reading Extra Credits in the title. Whatev.

    Anyway, maybe the mercs have some sort of incentive system laid out? Like, the first time you kill Nathan Drake, you get a positive comment on your employee file. If you manage to kill Nathan Drake several times, you might be eligible for supervisor training. I'd run into a burning building for that.

    Seeing this made me think back to when you're going after Fist, in Mass Effect.

    There's a part where you've gunned down all of his guards, and the only guys standing in your way are two warehouse workers.

    I like the paragon dialogue in that scene.

    Shepard: Now might be a good time to find another place to work.

    Worker 1: Uh, good idea.

    Worker 2: I never liked Fist anyway.

    The end.

    I guess penny arcade will start getting moodier and more edgy. Being a teen is pretty difficult from what I hear

    Is this really what passes for comedy in the UK these days?

    Gone are the halcyon days of a man in drag beating up old ladies in a montage to yakety sax.
