Let's Play - Splinter Cell: Blacklist - Spies VS Mercs

[@night4345]

That first game was like a comedy guard duo running up against Black Widow level spies and the second a pair of incompetent spies against hardened ex-military guards.

[@VulpineGunslinger]

That is good haha.

[@RandomGuy325]

I like how Geoff as a spy with a water gun attacks an armored merc face to face, dies horribly and then he calls bullshit on the game...

[@RoximRox]

Weird thing was that whatever team Ray was on, won. Most of the time, he wasn't even the best one on the team; a few times, some might say he got carried. He brought out the best in his teammates and was able to support them in the way they needed. Ryan's good at killing: find him targets Geoff's good at hiding: distract the mercs and lure them out. Gav's surprisingly good at noodling around avoiding death and dealing it: focus on the objective letting him do that. It was interesting.

[@werevick7390]

And that is simply because Ray is good at everything

[@Mechakitty]

Aarekk Gavin the noodle guy

[@Jay-qn4ez]

Aarekk great because everyone needed someone to point out a completely useless detail

But he wants to be CoD good at this, and just rinse then every time.

One of my favorite things about this let's play is seeing how they slowly learn and get better at the game. It's pretty cool to watch.

[@cherniza_]

Gavin & Geoff have both been involved with RT since 2003 and knew each other by 2007 (if not earlier), Gavin lived with Geoff, etc. been through a lot together.. It’s not that crazy that they’re so close

Edison Trent i am convinced Gavin had to be doing some of that on purpose. That or he really is that dumb and unobservant.

[@the5gyammers235]

One moment Gavin died and crouched with his hands up

[@aperturesciencegames]

Ray and Ryan are the perfect examples of how to play as spies or mercs and Gavin and Geoff are the exact opposite (in Gavin's case he is the ultimate failure of an spy)

[@WinterRoseYT]

[@Alliewolf-nk1wi]

This is one of the best let's plays with the R and R connection to watch.

watching Geoff and Gavin attempt to play spy is painful. It's like they don't understand the concept of stealth.

Why would you put the closeted murderer and the All-star MLG pro on the same team? That's so freaking unfair.

[@iainkilcar7463]

For those who aren't aware it's so dark because they're playing the version of svm that is trying to be more faithful so it's made to be darker than normal to encourage people to use their flashlights and night vision.

This is so cool, they should play this more often, also RouLetsPlay brought me here.

[@OmikronTitan]

Ya'know... I've watched this video dozens and dozens of times over the years (love the Blacklist videos), and it just now clicked with the joke Gavin made with "changing all the 1's and 0's" after Geoff's "transgendering data" comment. Just whooshed over my head. Love realizing little things like that that should have been blatantly obvious.

[@brotherbarnaby4464]

Blacklist and Chaos Theory are pretty much uncontested as the best in the Splinter Cell series.

[@charliepruett1932]

***** THANK YOU! why is there so much hate or this game? sure ironside is gone and it sucks but i dont get how people say its an action game. on perfectionist you get 2 choices, you can be stealthy, or you can die. conviction was a very annoying third person shooter where stealth was impossible and allowed for zero strategic planning since the enemies bum rush your position more often than not.

[@SirBigWater]

Charlie Pruett Blacklist is a good game, especially after Conviction. But it is too fast and it can get pretty action paced when compared to all of the ones before (and including) Double Agent. In a stealth series, that is not the best thing. But still good.

[@brotherbarnaby4464]

Alex Groleau Its how I have decided to play it as well. Conviction and Blacklist I both play in their own bubble, pretty much just ignoring the rest of the series. They are more like stealth action games than pure stealth games. On their own they are good but they are nothing like the old games in terms of style.

[@dio0dio640]

I think I’ve watched this video 10 times since it came out, classic
