Uncharted 2: Among Thieves | The Definitive Playthrough - p14 (Nolan North, Troy Baker, Amy Hennig)

[@GenerationWest]

What a triumph this game was, and helped cement Naughty Dog as the powerhouse it is, with the help of Amy Hennig. Also, I'm so happy to see Nolan progress as he did, he's come so far! Now, we wait for Drake's Deception.

[@TheGhost-rp3ko]

And possibly A Thief's End

[@TheGhost-rp3ko]

@J Prez they meant to say Nolan

[@phoeni3902]

We seriously need some kind of 'Naughty Dog Roundtable' like that show The Roundtable where they assemble people who worked on a film or their own projects to talk and share, I'd love to see that with a Naughty Dog game and have more cast and crew discuss their projects

[@quinnmarchese6313]

i like how bringing the two most heard voice actors in general gaming (outside Steve Blum) turns into lets dish on how great Naughty Dog is specifically

[@candidlyopinionated19]

Dude I would watch the hell out of that

[@AshflowEX]

Yes please

[@psyrolz1626]

THIS!!! Get this man a t-shirt or something. Its THE best idea ever!

[@MythicSuns]

I wouldn’t mind seeing that for the Jak games. And not just out of nostalgia, but because it feels like those games get overlooked even though they were Naughty Dogs first attempt at more serious storytelling.

[@LadyDonegan]

I just wanted to say I really really appreciate Amy She is such a wonderful person to listen to herstories for behind the scenes and to hear her expound on her own technique on creativity as a writer really really encourages me as a writer! Thank you Amy!

[@NikolajCarlson]

It is also kinda sad that she has not been on a released game since Uncharted 3(as far as I know). I truly hope that the next game she is working on will actually get released, cuz she seems like she is really good at her job

[@AndyGilleand]

Man, when Amy talked about how it sucks when a publisher doesn't have faith in you, I felt that. Looking at you, EA.

[@reeceburns8077]

I thought it sucked no one had faith in her for uncharted 4 as a fan of uncharted 1,2 and especially 3 I hope they discuss that at one point

[@unlimited971]

@@reeceburns8077 i have faith in her since soul reaver. EA are a bunch of greedy bastards.

[@laithmanleo]

Nothing's better than bringing a guest that actually worked on the game, especially Amy.

[@DragoonBG]

Amy is a special kind of lady, always brining interesting points and intriguing conversations, or behind the secenes stories. She is pretty much main leading this episode and joy to listen (very typical for good storyteller). I often found myself wanting to hear more or ask a question (not to forget the big shout out about Legacy of Kain!). Great job guys!

[@SuperBexley]

I love that this whole episode is with Amy talking about the whole creative and production process without the distraction of game play. Plus the respect and love from Troy and Nolan is perceptible.

[@adamross2256]

"Do you have a plan to go along with that grenade" ....Is one of my favorite quotes of all time.

[@ChrisLT]

Amy's incredible. Shame we haven't seen her recent work come to fruition lately because her record is flawless. Everything she does is gold.

[@aaronskinner4973]

Anyone notice the subtle tease for the Uncharted 3 playthrough at 49:55 ? The ring at the low right corner is the loading screen for Uncharted 3. Uncharted DF=Gold Piece Uncharted 2=Purba Dagger Uncharted 3=Drakes ring

[@kratosgow342]

Uncharted 4=Pirate Coin

[@harrymcallister90]

I did, nice catch :) I'm playing Uncharted 3 again on original PS3 in Stereoscopic 3D(even though I have all uncharted games on ps4 as well lol) plus I'd kinda love to see Nolan play Uncharted Golden Abyss if that's even possible on a TV. Probably not gonna happen lol

[@ReceitaFederal2]

​@@harrymcallister90 Maybe it works on that PS Vita TV thing? I wish they ported that to ps4, so much people interested in more Uncharted...

[@harrymcallister90]

@@ReceitaFederal2 Yeah same, they probably won't play that one since it's on Vita but more importantly because it wasn't done by Naughtydog(which makes the game that much more impressive in my opinion lol)

[@MelkShek]

And the music was a massive hint as well nice catch

[@jasoncreedfilms]

Troy raised his hair game. Well done, Maestro.

[@WhatsMyFandom]

17:46 "I'm having a dumb." "Not a dumb." Troy's voice. So serious lol. I LOVE watching y'all play games but these are def part of my top fave videos. Just listening to y'all talk about the games and what happened. Very fun! Thanks and cheers to you as well. Love the UC loading screen at the end. SO EXCITED FOR 3!

[@heloisa7712]

You know those family meetings when you were a kid and you see/listen the growns ups talking and you didn't understand anything about it but you could see the joy, the fun, the passion whatever they were talking about and you thought it was sweet so you just stayed there, maybe even a little far or in a corner, just listening, watching them share their knowledge and love and stuff. I felt that watching this. Felt a lot like family. I'm happy here.

[@christina3537]

Heloisa cant relate, so i dunno what you’re talking about. none of my family were happy together

[@anthonyscaccia6478]

Hearing Amy talk about this or any game is like getting a masterclass in video game production. We should all be so lucky that have some one like her at the helm. Thank you Amy!

[@shafaatoo9328]

I love you guys, you really imrpoved the format. Love the idea of finishing the game, then discussing everything with Amy Henning. Thanks for making my mondays better guys! Much love

[@d3mystic93]

My younger self is guilty of thinking that voice actors have the easiest job in the industry. Read the lines, say it, then done. But the games in the last decade have shown me that the individuality they bring to the character is more important than the voice. And it still amazes me how they do it so brilliantly. After spending 3 weeks with Troy as Vincent Brooks, and then instantly switching to Delsin Rowe, it was obvious that it was Troy yet so completely different, so completely unique.

[@listofromantics]

With Troy playing The Last of Us to roughly coincide with the launch of The Last of Us 2, I keep holding out hope that Nolan's playthrough of the Uncharted series 1 - 4 will cap with a Sony / Naughty Dog announcement for more Uncharted on the PS5. P.S. - We need Claudia & Laura back for Lost Legacy.

[@gabe1655]

seeing sam and sully together would be a gift from Heaven

[@gtone339]

@Cptn_Avery Fingers crossed! 😁

[@justwatch7091]

I hope they leave Uncharted. They made an epic finale for main series and a great side game. I want them to make new things, not milked endless Uncharted games.

[@petesgurl101]

That would be amazing!!!

[@themaker151]

Hopefully no Nathan Drake. Established characters or make new ones

[@Beyar90]

Anyone watch Mr. Sunday Movies? Troy is rocking the "Worst Haircut In Movie History" Hawkeye hair 😂

[@michaelgranger146]

Have him guest on Retro Replay!!!

[@MTTT19]

Love Amy Hennig’s work. It’s a shame that EA pulled the plug on her Star Wars game. When will EA learn that Multiplayer games are shit and Single Player Story Driven Games are the real winners

[@justwatch7091]

MP games are not shit but how EA handle them definetely is.

[@christopherwashi]

Have you even played a non microtransaction multiplayer game? Titanfall 2 is a good one. Plus EA is learning

[@atomicpower2438]

EA will never learn money owns them

[@Bman54X]

The Mission Impossible 3 connection is really cool. Never noticed the parallel, even though I love that movie. Also, it's Michelle Monaghan, not Bridgette Monaghan, Troy

[@DragoonBG]

Huge repsect for Amy also, because often people are vey insecure or adamant talking about inspirations!

[@gritynity]

I caught that too! It’s also Bridget Moynahan

[@TheFuchsiaRosa]

Can't wait for Uncharted 3

[@js100serch]

A playthrough of the Legacy of Kain series with Amy would be amazing. Specially Soul Reaver 2 and Defiance which lore wise, are the strongest games in the entire series.

[@RafaelMendes-xl5gn]

This channel is the dlc that we have never had about Drake brothers living their own lives! Amazing!

[@helixvfx8569]

This channel honestly keeps me going day to day knowing Nolan and Troy and the whole replay gang are doing when they are some of the most well known people in the gaming business!!

[@neph6098]

Congratulations to Uncle Noly once again! I was wondering if our boys can get Camilla Luddington as a guest for an episode, I would love to watch Lara Croft and Nathan Drake on the same room playing Uncharted!

[@ileamarferrer5962]

Maaaaaan I wish Nolan and Troy would have just gotten along for Uncharted 3 and Uncharted 4 Definitive Playthroughs. This is just such great content. Amy is such a great person I really hope that her next 2 projects are just awesome.

[@christinagates8622]

I absolutely love when Amy comes on here. It's so awesome to hear all of her stories and behind the scenes info. That was a wild ride, and I can only imagine Uncharted 3 will get more wild. Can't wait to see it whenever it comes around.

[@erinv.976]

She should make a podcast! I love listening to her talk about these things!!!

[@maxrates]

This game is one of my favorites. The characters, the historical intrigue, I know the graphics are old but even today I think the artstyle is amazing in this game. The music is some of the best ever, the list goes on and on with Uncharted 2.

[@alejandraperez2609]

its like to see nathan chatting with his mom,love this episode

[@jasoncreedfilms]

"Please don't break Nolan." Is this the origin for Uncle Noly?

[@combojohn7953]

Uncharted 2 is still the best and Amy is the Legend! We need another Uncharted with her lead. Maybe Uncharted 5....?

[@CookiestMonsterr]

I guess they could go back in time because there's not going to advance the story with drake unless the kid grows up and has adventures of her own

[@BobBob-gk9ej]

Not sure if this will get read, but I just want to say Amy is a legend, super modest, extremely talented, and I loved that puppet scene in the prison she wrote. Sort of bummed I won't be playing anything she worked on for the foreseeable future, but I have allot faith in whatever she is working on next (even if it's not a game) and I can't wait to hear more.

[@jeffreydean5112]

Greg Edmonson did an amazing job with the music in this series

[@Dreymasmith]

[@Adam-zc3of]

I love how Retro Replay has given so much time to brilliantly creative people like Amy Hennig, allowing us to hear all of these amazing bits of information and game dev background. While I knew of Amy already, these insights give me a greater appreciation for the craft, especially now that I landed my first game dev job myself, that will eventually lead to game writing. :P

Just wanted to say it’s always a pleasure watching these live with the rest of the Founding 500 and other viewers. Thank you for following us on social media as well. You’ve inspired us to do our own kind of “couch show” which is in development, and as you know, that is code for “We have no idea what it is yet.”

[@matthewkulak3916]

This kind of insight into game development should be shown to all fans. Maybe they would be less salty about decisions made by the devs.

[@Bad_At_Parties]

Such a timeless game, forever in my top ten gaming experiences. I'd come home from a long day at school, hop on Uncharted 2 and just play the Urban Warfare section over and over again, as the gameplay loop of the on-foot chase from the armored vehicle all the way to the helicopter chase and building collapse absolutely blew my mind and still do no matter how much I play them. This isn't to mention the character interactions and dialogues that leap off the page, and make the story so worth following. Forever in Amy's debt, as well as the rest of her team.

[@richardlinter4111]

Words are insufficient to describe how much I enjoyed the creatives playing and kibitzing the game they made famous. Thank you one and all, and especially Amy, who I think deserves more credit than some are willing to grant.

Uncharted 2 was one of the first titles that I bought when I purchased a PS3 back in 2011. The game is amazing and it holds up really well even today. It's cinematic presentation and high budget movie like action sequences were revolutionary, especially at the time. I absolutely love it. Keep up the hard work!

48:32 as a Sony fanboy, this is just a delight to listen to. It remembers me of Cory Balrog talking about the first time Shuhei Yoshida played the new God of War, and said that he was horrified, remarking that he did a "are we paying those guys to do this?" face. Fact is that Sony went through with the project, and it ended up being the GOTY. It's not about blind trust, it's about giving a chance to those that are always delivering to make a good game. (Not to start a console war, but, yeah, unlike MS rushing projects and cancelling Scalebound.)
