Let's Drown Out Resident Evil 4 Until We're Sick Of It - Episode 3

[@Whitewingdevil]

Fellow worshippers of the glorious Red9, come forth and be counted! Together we will defeat the heretical Blacktail cult!

[@Ihavethetouch]

+Whitewingdevil Iä Iä Red9 FHTAGN!

[@ExileTwilight]

+Whitewingdevil Fuckin' love the Red9 :D

[@flightlesschicken7769]

Red9 is the only way. I used to be a member of the Blacktail cult, but then I saw the light and realized it was naught but a false profit. I follow the true pistol now. Hail the glorious Red9

[@flightlesschicken7769]

glorious Red9!* Mobile doesn't let me edit.

[@Crowley9]

I have sometimes thought what it would be like to relive my life with my knowledge intact, and personally I think it would be horrible. For the first 10-15 years of your life you would either have to pretend to be an idiot or freak out people by knowing more than you should. And not just in a "wise beyond their years" kind of way. You meet someone for the first time and you have to be careful to not let slip how you know much more about them than you should. Or that you know future events that will happen. Then what about all those people who became significant close friends to you but you first met them in a chance encounter? Would you try to re-enact those meetings or just leave them be and live with the memory of what you have lost?

[@hurrdurrmurrgurr]

+Crowley9 You would feel miserable and alone, surrounded by children who don't know fuck all and every adult would patronise you. You would know what companies to invest in to make yourself and your family extremely rich but your parents would refuse to invest their money on your word alone.

[@huntervelicky7502]

anybody ever read the Salinger short story Teddy? it's about a boy with a previous live's memories intact. spooky stuff

[@jnserantes2]

I think that it basically the plot of every modern Isekai.

[@RukaSubCh]

Yay something interesting to watch, finally. This show is a highlight for me every Sunday.

[@Bluelunes]

+Eineus21 Me too. It's become an important Sunday ritual. Comes out early in the AM here in the states, so I always eat breakfast and watch.

[@Mothman1992]

+Bluelunes I don't watch, I just listen to it. so I put it on, put my headphones in, and listen as I walk up to a local cafe I really like to get my morning coffee/breakfast

[@Bluelunes]

Oh that's a good idea. I don't get much data though so it'd be expensive to do that.

[@Mothman1992]

+Bluelunes I managed to get a decent unlimited data plan from sprint. it didn't work out today though. I had a muffin and a cappuccino as I waited for my chorizo breakfast burrito with sriracha. ordered a black coffee to drink with my burrito (I have them put sriracha and smoked jalapeños on mine) and got half way home before the pit of my stomach dropped out and I had to waddle sprint home to avoid shitting my pants

[@Bluelunes]

Ha ha ha, yep! Black coffee, sriracha, jalapenos... Sounds like a recipe for disaster if you're caught out in the open. Once when I was a courier caught out in a rural area and got diarrhea all at once, that was the worst day. My sympathies.

[@sebastianvelcro]

I thought the line "Look out, it's wood!" was freakin' hilarious. The wooden delivery of the line is what really got me.

[@mitchdouglas9844]

15:48 - Stop mumbling Yahtzee, we talked about this

[@jeffha3]

"Amber Ring? Ooo, what does that do-oh-wait... not Dark Souls."

[@voievod7541]

Who needs drugs when you have Drown Out?

[@thefreebooter8816]

+draghici alex What about drugs AND drown out

[@cBreeze]

+draghici alex Fuckin oath I vote both.

[@rushiera2692]

+The Freebooter doing it right now sir !

[@LiquidShamanMan]

Let's Drown Out... my sorrows

[@cBreeze]

Let's Drown Out all sense of inhibition and end up naked in a church with the local law enforcement involved.

[@JonnyMcBane]

The frame rate turns this series in to a Zach Snyder film.

[@therealdavidcage4761]

I'm early let me think of a joke: I have crippling depression and the only way to prolong my inevitable murder-suicide is by watching a British guy and an Australian playing video games.

[@VIeshPilled]

+Nate Richards That's pretty funny, nice punchline

[@bobthebuilder7544]

Sounds awsome.

[@dragonraizen]

+Nate Richards The title of the series is truly resonating. What a calling!

[@fredericksmith7942]

+Nate Richards It's funny because it's true.

[@Sergeeeek]

+Nate Richards you mean postprone.

[@dixego]

Are you still planning on deconstructing Silent Hill 2? You know, before Yahtzee dies or whatever...

[@LiquidShamanMan]

Someone should ask him how thats going, in the LDO questions.

[@asendimchev1996]

+Joseph Dipalo Which is quite worse.

[@Farscryer0]

Why? America is fine. It has its problems but no more, or worse, than most other Western countries.

[@darcgibson5099]

(More) But they mean it would be worse as Gabe isn't moving with him, he isn't Yahtzee's man.

[@bigrigjoe5130]

He did a Livestream of it where he talked about everything he was going to say in a Lets Deconstruct

[@dalekmun2010]

54:50 I wasn't entirely focused on the video for a bit and though all the stuff about dumping her in a box was a joke. I was on the fucking floor when she sprung out of the dumpster like some kind of chicken in a box that just heard someone yell "Watermelon".

[@nickallport754]

Best part of my hungover Sunday's, is getting the notification that a new lets play is uploaded :D

[@concavekimono8036]

Whoever said that about souls combat being the industry standard was right on the money

[@jacob4189]

And Gabe and Yahtz saying it’s too niche and difficult lmao

[@paulkerrigan9857]

"Don't come" is what you get when translating Japanese to English, literally, without bothering to localize it or make it sensible. "Stay back" would have been just as easy...

[@janinecat1865]

Hah, listen to Yahtzee stifle his disappointment when Gabe didn't say that he's the most famous person Gabe has met.

[@Veloceipro]

These videos are way too addictive.

[@lehelisbored]

And they still are 4 years later, my friend.

[@brucesalzwedel2323]

Watched/ listened to the two of you for, oh, maybe 20 minutes or so. Very entertaining. I, myself, am no longer a video-gamer...(arthritic hands / fingers) plus, a wife who does not appreciate ....well, you know... Just wanted to tell you I subbed, so I can watch MORE of your "stuff"! Thanks for posting. You will get a kick out of this: The last time I gamed was messing around with PS-2' s San Andreas. My sons finished the game...all I wanted to do was drive, fly, use cheat codes, cause mayhem, etc. !

[@AlexDMC]

Are you on drugs? They stopped doing videos like 8 years ago

[@jbkjbk1999]

I love how Yahtzee repeats Kenways dumb joke definition of the difference between a ship and a boat that he tells his daughter at the end of the game, but as if it's an actual fact. Also, he fucks it up. The actual line is "a boat can fit inside a ship, but a ship can't fit inside a boat". The two words aren't actually rigidly defined. That line is kind of jokey rule-of-thumb definition. For sailing vessels, a ship is a vessel with at least three masts, and a boat is a vessel with fewer. For motorized vessels, the definition is even looser, and the distinction is mostly that ships are meant to be ocean-going, deep-water vessels, and are therefore usually bigger, and boats are the opposite. It's just a fun example of of Yahtzee being such a great example of the dunning-krueger effect.

[@TheADK74u]

I miss "lets drown out" :(

[@AltimeterAlligator]

I love watching these at half speed. Yahtzee and Gabe have great voices for it.

[@bubba200874426]

The achievement being secure the ballistics is actually a self-reference. I guess Capcom really liked that joke.

[@acidstrummer]

I woke up at 2 this morning and decided to play along with you guys when I couldn't get back to sleep. I bought RE4 on PSN years ago but never got more than 20 minutes into it because of the strange controls. Anywho, I just killed the giant troll thing and have been waiting excitedly for you to upload this installment

[@LiquidShamanMan]

Yahtzee and Gabe are my two favorite benders on the interwebs.

[@nindger4270]

that's not the difference between a boat and a ship at all, but carry on.. :D

[@shelbyherring92]

Well, Leon's clothes are basically a black Under Armor T-Shirt, grey tactical cargo pants, a WW2 bombardier jacket, and a pair of black boots... But to Gabe's point, yes Bombardier jackets are expensive, especially if you get authentic sheepskin ones.

[@DakNJaxter]

40:20 As a video maker, I find his section comforting. It's good to know it's a universal thing.

[@ladamedesaraignees1764]

Fun fact! That Dog already has his own game! That Dog is a reference to Hewie from Haunting Grounds.

[@GreenEyedDazzler]

La Dame Des Araignées no way that’s fucking awesome

[@victorsimmons6769]

Ladders are quite the enigma, a device used to scale latge objects, yet once you're up, there's no way down. So mysterious...

[@fangsup726]

46:15 Gabe: "I bet there was someone out there rigorously defending the Mine Thrower." Okay so I've got a story for this. My last run of RE4 was a challenge run I called "Treasure Hoarder Leon" The Rules: A) Pro Mode B) Must Collect ALL Treasure C) Cannot Sell any Treasure (This means you're gonna be a bit strapped for cash to upgrade with and have general worse weapons most of the run) And a rule I decided at last minute: D) You cannot use the Special Rocket Launcher Ada throws you in the final boss fight. (Since its unique and you only get one per run, I considered it too special to use.) which means you have to defeat Saddler the old fashioned way, by pumping loads of damage into him instead. The Mine Thrower turned this fight from "Fucking Difficult" to "Cake Walk" because it can so easily drop Saddler into his Damage Setup state where you can stab him in the eye. Mine Thrower can and will single-handedly carry you if you give it the chance. But as the Merchant himself says: "Not only will you need cash, you'll need GUTS to buy that weapon."

[@GreenTengu97]

The TMP I recall being pretty fun and useful during that one part with the truck and the Ganados climbing up on top of it.

[@Runie549]

Oh geez, it was doing the slowdown thing for me too, and all this time I thought it was just my PC being crap or something. ... Oh well. This is why I still have the Wii version :P

[@PastyBabyface]

Damn Gabe & Yahtzee talkin about pegging in 2016. Streets ahead

[@96caboose]

Send help, Ashley just sprang out of the dumpster and I can't stop laughing

[@Wandergirl108]

Knifing bats makes about as much sense as kicking a bee, but I've seen that done effectively. XD

[@jaynedavis4667]

I live in Swindon, we have Flat White coffee, thats pretty much all we have, that and a roundabout, but its not just Aussies

[@grantd165]

But what a roundabout.

[@unholyzoe]

Its 2:14 pm on a nice Sunday and I wake up to this. Day has been made.

[@fangsup726]

37:02 It took a few watches to pick up on this, but the timing when Yahtz says "See? We're gonna do it right now!" lines up perfectly with Saddler smirking.

[@9313James]

I really enjoy the rifle shot at 47:44 killing both enemies and then Yahtzee wondering where the second guy had gone 😂

[@tomax9003]

2017...I really miss these Let's Drown Out episode. I used to take these for granted. How I wish Yahtzee would be a shittier writer and get rejected for American job... :(

[@ShinobuSakurazaka]

Yahtzee's move to the states was mainly so he could live with his girlfriend and he can technically do his job anywhere so long as he has access to a computer and a internet connection. That being said, I agree that I miss LDO especially when they do a long plays like this although I'm aware that they never actually finished RE:4.

[@stankgamin7749]

i've never been so invested in a drown out like this COME ON GUYS, you gotsta finish dis

[@lehelisbored]

Well, they never finished it.

[@jethropacker2417]

The noises fighting the giant guy omfg loooolololol

[@TrueRiderFan]

The fact that Gabe is listening to Simpsons commentaries is neat. I too listen to the commentaries (or did listen to them years back) in order to gain a better understanding of some of the thought that went into an episode.

[@zaarkin9199]

We have in real life New Game +. It's called Nepotism.

[@XanderShadow]

The singing at the end was the greatest part of this xD

[@khclupus]

Turn that sniper rifle back around please

[@RukaSubCh]

Now since you've said that they probably won't do it , just to piss you off. Lol

[@besidethebishop]

"Wow, she cannot make conversation." In fairness Luis just opened with "I see you have massive tits" (paraphrased). I probably wouldn't much want to talk to him either.

[@JimC607]

Lmao

[@lseths]

You made the El Gigante fight harder than it had to be. If you use a flash grenade he just stays around in one place for a little bit and you can easily shoot him without any fear of taking damage. Freeing the dog from the traps early in the game (which I think you completely missed) also makes the fight easier , as it'll show up here and distract him for a while.

[@bloodlustshiva1]

I didn't actually MEET with him, since I didn't want to bother him, but I saw Robert Carlyle while I was out shopping. He's one of my favorite actors too. Was an interesting experience, since I saw him, thought he looked familiar, then was shocked when I realized who it actually was.

[@barubary218]

How nice of them to write that letter in song. You just don't get that kind of dedication anymore

[@probablythedm1669]

God damn it Gabriel... Australian's drink a freaking tiny sip worth of coffee compared to the rest of the world. They're very much not at the top of coffee consumption (Finland and Sweden are at the top). The average Finn consumes 12.2 kg of coffee beans a year. The average Swede (because I'm Swedish, so I looked it up and we're 2nd) consumes 10.1 kg. The average Australian consumes a pitiful 3.97 kg... All stats cited above are from the International Coffee Organization: www.ico.org In summary: It's rather amusing when most foreigners speak of drinking a lot of coffee, since they're not even drinking child-sized amounts of the watered down swill they call coffee and still think they're in the big leagues. Get on our level - rest of the world! :) (Yes, I'm being facetious for the fun of it - I give no shits if you even like coffee or how you take it - you're all just casuals to us anyway).

[@probablythedm1669]

***** www.ico.org/profiles_e.asp You'll have to check each country separately by clicking on it on the world map. Pretty roundabout way to do things, but the info is there. I didn't look long enough to see if there's just a proper data sheet available, felt like too much work for a single comment.

[@BJMcB92]

+Daniel Mårtensson just Gabriel being pretentious again

[@TheDunko1]

The water wheel area is the only place where I've ever had slowdowns in this game. Probably why there's so much of it this episode.

[@propholian3]

Ever since the ZP of RE5 and Yahtzee mentioned Ashley and the description of chimp, I never have looked at Ashley since without thinking of the word 'chimp'.

[@latincounts5020]

This game will never get drowned out

[@jakecreighton3587]

Hello Yahtzee. I know you're not a people person, but I just wanted to thank you for all of the content that you upload on this website. I thoroughly enjoy watching and then re-watching various episodes of Zero Punctuation, Un-Civil War and Let's Drown Out. You're my favourite games reviewer and I am fascinated with your knowledge of the ins and outs of the industry. I am inspired by your blunt honesty and constantly entertained by your dry sense of humour. I apologise for being cheesy and sentimental, as I know it isn't your style, but I just wanted to let you know how much I truly appreciate everything that you do. Thank you. 😊

[@Lycanthromancer1]

A Leon sandwich? That means Luis is on one side and Ashley is on the other. Kinky.

[@Philloboy123]

I do remember Ashley had a different attire in a previous RE4 build that was more conservative, but they swapped it for waifu bait.

[@Moonlightatnight2]

That dog was used in Haunting Ground. His name's Hewie :)

[@d2factotum]

I remember playing this game, but I never finished it, and I can't remember why now. I got at least to this point because I remember fighting off the villagers and then fancy-pants walking out the door...

[@NetMoverSitan]

7:55 - If we wanted bad puns, we either play Undertale or watch something with Chuggaaconroy. | 9:18 - # Yo ho! Yo HO! We sail beneath the black flag! A rollicking we go!

[@MediaMunkee]

Part of that "sing-a-long" at the end almost sounded like it was to a bastardized version of the Rainbow Islands theme.

[@StevenUlyssesPerhero]

You're gonna want to only take the left path. You have to take both paths to complete the Elegant Mask, but you've already missed the first gem for it and I'm assuming you can't be arsed. With that out of the way, the second El Gigante is a pain to fight thanks to Ashley's presence, while the horde of Ganados is nothing you haven't already been through and has more than enough dumpsters for Ashley to hide in.

[@nejinaji]

i once did a suplex on a zealot in re4 and happened to put leon's head between ashley's legs on some stairs and she got mad at him for sneaking a peek

[@Nightmare78hAlo]

Oh jesus Christ, just go to options and lock your FPS to 30. RE 4 HD and the RE1 HD Remaster Remake both have a problem of going into slow mo if your PC is too shiet to handle 60 fps, so simply go into the options and set target fps to 30 instead and all will be fine.

[@DragonNexus]

+Nightmare78hAlo What was bizarre to me was in this video it wasn't losing frames...it was just playing slowly. Resi 1 seemed to be losing frames though...

[@Fortstorm]

+DragonNexus That's just the game compensating. It's pretty common in RTS games for the game simulation to slow down so the framerate doesn't die.

[@DragonNexus]

+Fortstorm Huh, it's not something I remember seeing often. Or at least not for some years. Quite interesting.

[@Franku40keks]

+DragonNexus I just go into the menu and back a few times and it's fixed.

[@emlmm88]

I think it's a software problem actually. I was experiencing it with two 780tis and 32gigs of RAM. It always happened when coming out of prolonged menu navigation.

[@Chickenbowser]

Hey it's that....oh yeah Yahtzee didn't save the dog because he's a horrible person who hates sweet adorable puppy dogs and doesn't want their assistance fighting giant Euro Mexicans.

[@MysteriumArcanum]

The most annoying escort mission I've taken part in is the first stage of the last level of Psychonauts where you have to keep that annoying kid alive while he chases after his pet rabbit.

[@Amitlu]

I learned two important distinctions today one involves boats and the other involves pegging

[@iamimiPod]

My parents took my daughter to see Matt Smith, whom she is a huge fan of. Best bit was my parents showed a picture my daughter drew of Matt Smith to him. He liked it, she was mortified!

[@Contra7311]

I feel like more games should have a newgame+ option. makes it more fun.

[@AGuyWithAChannel]

This show is the reason Sunday is a day of rest!

[@AK-tr6lo]

For whatever reason I thought they should start doge rolling every time el gigante was doing his wind up attack

[@EvilCommieDictator]

Can't wait for our favorite internet couple to do more fashion adventures next week

[@servebotfrank4082]

Aw, no "Hey it's that dog."

[@dorpth]

Wouldn't their plan have made more sense if they released Ashley immediately after injecting her?

[@jacob4189]

It would have made sense for them to try and hold her for a ransom, or at least have the appearance that they were holding her for ransom, but then let her go. Like Tarkin letting Leia go in Star Wars in an effort to find the rebel base.

[@123OmgSeriously]

Ambient wildlife, a common feature in some of the best PS2 era games. It feels like the idea's been kind of left at the wayside since then.

[@theevil090]

the slowdown is caused normally by the game selecting the wrong graphics card to use because it's not optimised for modern systems that have multiple. Use AMD catalyst or the Nvidia equivalent to make sure it's running on the right card.

[@DakNJaxter]

Those leather shin guards on Ashley's legs are called gaiters.

[@linksZsabre18]

looked up the spanish peseta exchange rate on a site that would let you compare all and even outdated currencies from all of history from around the globe. psa (spanish peseta) for about 1,000,000.00 PSA would get you over but not above 7,000.00 USD (USD = united states dollar/ US$) if the peseta was still being used today in today's economy and inflamation rates.

[@jjbussey]

"looks a little like trans Dewey from Malcolm in the middle" God damnit Gabe! Cannot unsee!

[@Drathayus]

I'm surprised that Yahtzee didn't save the dog from the bear trap. He would've helped on the El Gigante fight. :(

[@jacksonlefteye]

yahtzee needs to pull a Sterling and strike out on his own already why should he be worried about "rather pointed" e-mails from his publisher? the escapist needs him more than anything right now

[@servebotfrank4082]

They probably are paying him a shit load to not leave the site since he's the only one there at the moment. But yeah I agree that he has no reason to fear any wrath from the Escapist for saying things they don't like, there is no way they would fire him.

[@sumosushi7571]

You call a fish with no eyes unlooky.

[@SuperXAsh]

27:50 - Biggest Perpetrator (IMHO) was the game tie-in for the first Ghost Rider movie, in terms of fighting, with some attempts at mixing in some Devil May Cry... was basically God of War's fighting system (or an attempt to make God of War's Fighting System) if it also had seeming mandatory DMC grading of 'style' and 'finesse' of how well you did combos and weren't interrupted while attempting to perform said combos... which was made all the more stupid by how there were certain enemies later in that game that actually required a high combo/style grade to even damage. >_< it's what i get for renting the damn thing. 39:09 -The earlier stuff never quite bothered me, it had set limitations, and stuff that didn't break disbelief too much... some of it coming across as tumors/elephantitis on steroids. But it was when we got to 'Code Veronica' that things got really god-damn goofy with seemingly magical viruses that could turn you into superman... or a giant living ant-hill or whatnot. RE4 brought it back to a more constrained set of rules, (as far as the series went) but then RE5 onward went balls-out crazy with the mutations again. For me the biggest example was RE6, where the new viruses could transform you into literally ANYTHING... no matter how stupid it was. When one of the main villains transforms into a literal T-Rex, you hope someone HAD to know they'd fucked up somewhere along the way... design-wise.

[@boredtildeath666]

you missed a whole lot of stuff in the merchants cave, including a gem for that head piece :)

[@hiroantag]

He said it, right at the end of the video the weapons dealer said "Come back anytoime."

[@loupax]

Just my thoughts for the people that ask Yahtzee for advice on how to write. "Write a lot" IS good advice, but I'm guessing that people asking for such advice mostly mean "I try to start writing, but I keep not writing and I'm stuck, and I need some advice on how to get passed this initial wall". And if that's the case with you, keep in mind that what worked for Yahtzee, is writing since a teenager and never stopping since. A good way to become successful at something, but this "advice" will not help you getting past the wall you've hit. I want to look for something closer to my case, on how to start writing now and get passed this initial wall. Does anyone know any writers that started in their 30s?

[@YukoValis]

I say the most famous person I met in person was Jim Carry. He even walked up to me and said Hi. Know what I said to him back? "Please keep your legs and arms inside the slide at all times" course this was at six flags, and I happen to be a life guard, but still..

[@00naruhina]

I always run the Blacktail and the Striker, with the SemiAuto, Broken Butterfly and the mine thrower for funsies, Homing bullets yay!

[@StrawberryWolferz]

Gabe, Yahtzee... I'm going through a rather tough time in my life. Me and probably like 75% of KZbin Gameplay video viewers. I just wanted to say that I've been binge watching your Let's Drown Out series for the past month, and it's honestly kept me preoccupied enough to prevent me from overthinking everything. I don't know what it is about your voices, gents, but they have an oddly calming appeal to them. Maybe it's just because I have a fondness for accents (being that I'm from the U. S. of lame and have your typical boring northern states drone). But I'd like to say that your collective sense of humor is interesting in combination. Anyways, I'm sure, if you're reading this at all, you're probably wondering what the point in this comment is... Well PLOT TWIST! There is no point! Anyways, thank you for making these videos. I hope you both continue to make them for a while. I'm beginning to run out of videos to watch and may have to resort to rerunning your series...

[@sethorren]

what's gooey, red, and green all over? a frog in a blender

[@moosemaimer]

Goes on and on about ammo conservation Shoots bear traps instead of knifing them

[@skolkor]

Funny Yahtzee would mention his "like God of War but" schtick here considering it should probably be "like Devil May Cry but" and DMC was originally going to be RE4.

[@ShroudedWolf51]

....holy crap. I didn't know that you could kill the bats.

[@TheKAIGamesCo]

You guys should do a lets drown out of Undertale. I'd watch the crap outta that.

[@darcgibson5099]

I've got a good joke to finish: My life.

[@PainCausingSamurai]

Honestly Yahtzee, you could just do a preemptive hypothetical E3 video and probably be accurate.

[@El_Donahuego]

There was a game about the adventures of that dog, it was called Haunting Grounds.
