I mean, even if you want to make this point, an entry where the two main characters are women of color probably isn't where it's best directed.
if it was actually 6-10 hours ( i highly doubt that), but if it's actually that long, i would assume it's 5 hours climbing, 1.5 hours cutscenes, 30min puzzles and 1 hour of action
One of those characters grew up in Australia and the other is voiced by a white woman. If their actions in the game are no different from a white imperialist then they're essentially white imperialists.
Of course I don't know about the plot to this game yet, it could be about the two of them exploring India together and then leaving without causing any death or stealing any artifacts. But given Uncharted 4 was about a white man who was so upset at his average life that he had to go kill foreigners and loot their lands one last time; and then is celebrated by the game for doing so, I'm not expecting much.
Not too hyped because U4 was a disapointment. I hope this is more shooting, less climbing again.
Does buying the season pass that got delisted count as preordering for J&D?
My bad, forgot that we can't analyze politics in games Neogaf likes.

TIL, Nadine, a black woman from South Africa, is a white imperialist.

Hey, not every thread needs to be a circle-jerk.
Aren't the vast majority of people you kill in Uncharted games just mercenaries working for the big bad and not the locals at all?
But that's not what Uncharted 4 was about. You fight a PMC group that is helping a guy who wants to find pirate treasure while you hunt for the same pirate treasure.My bad, forgot that we can't analyze politics in games Neogaf likes.

We had four Uncharted games that were primarily third-person-action-games within an adventure-setting. If they wanted to make a family-drama walking/climbing/chatter simulator with some action in between they shouldn't have called it Uncharted 4.ND can't win. UC 1-3 people complained about constant shooting galleries, and Drake being a murdering phsychopath. UC4 people complain about there not being enough shoot shoot. It's a lose, lose scenario.
This thread is dreadful though. A gone Gold thread turn full drama.
So boring that it was GAF's GotY.
YES!!! Always down for more white imperialism simulators on my favorite console the PS4! #4theimperialists
Uncharted is a series about white people invading foreign lands, killing 1000's of locals, and stealing their treasures for personal gain. I can't wait to see what new imperialist techniques they have in this one.

people keep saying how Uc4 had so much platforming that makes it boring.Uncharted 4 was a boring game, it only won GOTY because of fanboys, white imperalism.
Y'know... drama!

I mean if you're just going to assume that all these people joined the mercenary group out of their own free will, sure. I'm sure none of them of them were kidnapped as children or had their families threatened to be forced to fight for the group.
Sure.I mean if you're just going to assume that all these people joined the mercenary group out of their own free will, sure. I'm sure none of them of them were kidnapped as children or had their families threatened to be forced to fight for the group.
Besides that, Nathan's actions in Uncharted 2, 3, and 4 cause innocents to have their lives put into danger.

It's a fight he didn't have to participate in, he chose to go kill people and then loot treasures for himself because he was bored of a normal life. And there are no consequences for any of his actions.

He chose to participate in it because he believed his brother was in danger. Regardless, this isn't what you were saying before. I really think you're trolling at this point because I'm pretty sure if people keep proving you wrong you're going to keep changing your argument without admitting you were wrong, as you just did.It's a fight he didn't have to participate in, he chose to go kill people and then loot treasures for himself because he was bored of a normal life.

Holy shit, it might be time to take a step back.

Are you also going to boycott God of War where a black man plays a white guy? Also in the Unchared case the voice actor Laura Bailey was cast before the look of the character was finished.I never said that Naughty Dog is racist, probably because they might not be, but I can't ignore the fact that they hired a white woman to voice and do the motion capture for a character that is black.
Surely Naughty dog could have found a talented Black actor to play the part.
It's just a game bro chill out. You can dig into the politics of any game and find fault but that's not what Vidya games are aboutI mean if you're just going to assume that all these people joined the mercenary group out of their own free will, sure.

I would say this is the sum of all Uncharteds. Everything you have loved about it. Weve scaled the proportions of it back to some of the original Uncharteds, where they are epic as you saw, you know these Ganesh archaeological sites of the Hoysala Empire. Weve gone into more of the discovery, more of the adventure, I would say more set pieces even.
Is there something in the air today that's making this particular thread such a shitshow? I mean, it's entertaining, but some of you all are on a completely different fucking level.
Naughty Dog makes masterpiece games. I would not say that they are overrated or bad but I agree with some of the points made against Nathan Drake's character. It doesn't detract from my wanting to play through it though.Naughty Dog threads have been attracting a fair share of vocal and salty ass posters lately. It's always about their game(s) being 'overrated', 'bad', or 'immoral'.
It's 2017 so I don't say this lightly, I don't think I have ever seen anyone try so hard to be offended over nothing as you are now.I mean if you're just going to assume that all these people joined the mercenary group out of their own free will, sure.
