Hey everyone. The comments sections are doing pretty well, just keep the general spoiler policy in mind, and please try to keep your comments constructive. Thanks.

Also, if you're about to comment on holding people up, climbing cracks, tossing magazines, camo, or really anything else...you may want to take a minute and browse through the comments so far. It's probably already been said. Unless you don't mind saying the same thing as 20 other people.

Is this episode not-premium on purpose?

I hear they call them the Diamond Dogs.

Loading Video...

Also, Joy Division, The Cure, Japan, this game really has a killer soundtrack.

The wet box is a pre order/CE thing. It will not resist rain, it just has marsh camo. You need to unlock the WR (Water Resistant) box. You unlock it by collecting invoices.

Drew needs to remember Jeff and Vinny spent entire episodes fusing Personas in the Endurance Run. A couple minutes in some menus does not warrant an apology.

Don't gimp yourself for the audience's sake, Drew.

Do you keep/unlock weapons you take off fallen enemies? I've been avoiding that up until recently when I found a rocket launcher.

2% at the start of Part 03. So, at least 97 more episodes. Sobering.

I hope there's a box party in the episode. Those are the best kinds of parties.

Hahahaha that 01:40 mark!

Wow. I didn't learn crack climbing until about 60 hours in.

@drewbert Exactly this drew! We just want to see you enjoy playing this game and the frustration you get from "wasting our time" or whatever you think it is - is silly. Develop some weapons! Spend hours in the menus trying to decide what to do! We came to see you play the game! Don't stress it. ;)

I really hope Drew starts listening to tapes, at least the yellow ones.

Not just on side ops, you can listen to tapes while developing and customizing things.

Or just sit there and listen, they're not that boring.

I know this is weeks earlier than what's being recorded now but I'll chime in to echo the sentiments of those who say "Play it like a video game, not like a video production." If you want to spend time doing mundane things, spend the time. I guarantee you most of the audience can have this going in the background and be multitasking, and they aren't going to fall asleep or fly into a rage over twenty or thirty minutes of doing what you need to do.

I wonder how many episodes it will be before Drew realizes that wearing a Sneaking Suit during broad daylight in the desert may not be as effective as...I dunno, Desert Camo?

It'll be a while if Dan keeps telling Drew that camo doesn't matter.

Drew should have a mini episode where he and Dan listen to cassettes. Lots of story in there.
