IIRC the weird pacing of the game is due to the turbulent development of the game (Druckman taking over the development very late from Amy Henning) when already large parts of the game were finished.

Uncharted 4 is the worst one by far. Even the graphics are overrated.

It’ was ok. I played it right after playing Horizon for 80 hours and I had much more fun with Horizon.

I think there was very much a major case of sequel escalation though through the first three games. Uncharted 3 was pretty much just taking all the set pieces and ramping it up to 12.
What more could they do there? It was time to look at other things to impress with

The melee combat suck ass compared with tlou melee combat imho.
Less heavy feel, no gore, worst camera work.

Do you want even more feminist-inspired dialogues/storytelling?
I say bring back Bruce Straley:
On Uncharted 2's 10th anniversary, its developers look back on the making of a perfect sequel
Bruce Straley, Robh Ruppel, and Jonathan Stein reflect on the making of Uncharted 2
www.gamesradar.com
"I would love to play another Nathan Drake game, but I would want to see it done in a way that is mindful of the original concepts that we pushed for in Uncharted 2. That is, keeping everything core, everything on the stick, all the set pieces playable. If I was back there, I would be pushing Uncharted even further into the realm of player choice, and exploring how that affects the adventure. More than that, though, the industry still needs well-drawn characters and good storytelling that doesn't take itself seriously like a lot of games now tend to in the triple-A space."

I really don't think LL is that great of a game. it is worse than 4 for me. Puzzles were boring, characters largely uninteresting and villain super typical. + there were no stakes and no set pieces besides ending.
3>2>4>LL>1

lol Uncharted 4 has some of the best melee combat in any shooter, if TLOU is number 1 then Uncharted 4 is right behind it

I like Uncharted 4 way more than Lost Legacy: Better set pieces (other than the train) better graphics, better story and better characters

seems legit.
who are the other tps with a melee system? rdr2? max payne 3? gears?
i think that ND are the only one who makes games with a more involved melee system in their tps.
maybe i'm forgetting someone...

The pacing is not good compared to the uncharted 2, it makes replaying it a chore.

The Division 2, Quantum Break, Max Payne, Tomb Raider, RDR2, Gears 5, Mass Effect, Control, Grand Theft Auto 5, Hitman 2, Resident Evil, any game that has 3rd person shooting and melee

mmm yeah, but in most tps the melee is very basic, without all the animation and camera work of ND titles and it's not used enough like for example in tlou where half of your kill are melee kill.

My point exactly, Uncharted 4 has the best and most advanced melee system in a shooter
TLOU has exceptional melee too

From what i can remember, the first half the game is a bit slow, and start go get more "frenetic" chapter after chapter. But that's doesn't mean the other chapter are bad, maybe, if you're replaying it just to complete it at 100%, but at the first run it's well done and the pace is more than fine, otherwise everyone in the world would have dropped sh1t in every review. just means Op isn't for this type of game, or he's just playing it with a lot of prejudices. If so, don't even look TLOU, because the whole game has a slower pace.

I hated the addition of Sam and the corny as hell ending. I hope The Last of Us 2 doesn't also suck.

It's the slow moments & useless narrative which kill the game. Chapter 16 I believe (brothers Drake) was excruciatingly poorly paced, with a dull stereotypical plot being treated like Citizen Kane & the makers of the game pretending we should care enough about their clichéd melodrama to sit through a walking simulator level after some prior intense action levels. Nope. They also butchered Elena's character & made her a killjoy, literally guilting Drake into quitting the treasure hunting business (a bit of an uncharacteristic turnaround for her considering she was the adventurous one in Drake's Fortune).
But it's the overall message, morality & tone which was insane, i.e. "adventure & action is irresponsible, go home & be with your family instead". Say what? I bought that game to shoot bad guys & have a laugh with Drake & his friends. I didn't get it to be lectured by Druckmann about the wrongs of treasure hunting action hero stuff. It was a sad forced retirement for a cool character because Naughty Dog wanted to go & do something else instead.

Gamers:
- We don't get enough new games and companies rely too much on sequels/reboots.
Also gamers:
- Why don't they keep remaking the same games over and over again??

Hoorah for new IP's. In all seriousness I never even asked for new games, so your above point is moot in my case. Super Mario or Zelda fans don't bitch & moan to Nintendo about needing new IP's, so I don't see "why" I should be sick of Uncharted. It's a fun genre (third person cover shooter adventure) & I would be happy to play loads more.

I know, I was just being snarky because a lot of this thread just feels like silly complaints. Not your post specifically.

Just don't turn your action TPS into a boring walking simulator.

It sounds like a game like Call of Duty would be more of your speed. I loved the story in UC4 it is a huge reason for the game getting so much praise
I think I'm on my 7th playthrough

Meh. They already heavily hinted at that narrative direction at many points in the first three games. It already seemed planned that way for the most part. They doubled down on it in U4 pretty heavily, admittedly, but all the signs were there for that kind of conclusion. And really, Elena was out of Drake's life so many times only to be pulled back in that that kind of turnaround for her character was actually fairly predictable.

To each his own. I personally think it’s the best in the series, by far.

This. The variation in the campaign is what made the game so special IMO. Nate and Elena playing Crash Bandicoot at home, the scuba diving job, etc. The set pieces are great too

Love every bit of it. Best Uncharted in the series by a long shot and personally my GOTG with God of War. Im currently playing it again. I cant find in one thing bad in this game.

When did they ever say that? I tried searching and they had plenty of "leaving it open for possibility" beyond UC4/LL since the "thieving world is huge".

Played Uncharted 4 once, finish it, never replayed it. Same thing happened with Lost Legacy, played it once and that's it.
Yet I replay Fallout 4, quite a broken game but still lots of fun for some strange reason.
There is something about these two games, Uncharted feeling very restrictive while Fallout 4 being very open to the way you play the game.

I thought the gameplay was fine but the story was one of the worst in the series. Nadine was never a believable threat and I can't even remember the main antagonist.
However, funnily enough, I remember who were SUPPOSED to be the antagonists (Todd Stashwick and Alan Tudyk) before Druckmann fucked up the script

Climbing and walking with zero skill involved for 75% of the game, so much fun...
Oh wait, the boring chit chat with the brother who comes out of the ass just for the 4th chapter with zero hint of his existence in the past games, i was almost forgetting the best part...

I paraphrase their forced retirement of Nathan Drake, i.e. Drake who was for all intents & purposes Uncharted. Nathan Drake = Uncharted, Uncharted = Nathan Drake. Anyone who pretends other characters could fill the void overlook the fact the series was made popular off the back of Nolan North & Nathan Drake. Showing a future scene with his kid & retired life was like the end of Harry Potter, i.e. "this character is finished so no one can make a sequel with him".

I want a Nathan Drake sequel aka Uncharted 5. I don't see why that's an issue or should be prohibited when we're talking about a fictional world setting.

But he old and retired tho!
Then again, if Indy can do it. Maybe they can drag him out... one... last... time to bail Cassie out of trouble. Oh wait, it is current year, she would be picked up 1/3 of the way through to bail the bumbling idiot male out of trouble.

I would say the same but with another story, other characters, and better graphics.
But they added the drama and increased map size, hence fucking up the pace. That's how I see it at least.

I can just imagine the game starring the Drake daughter being Uncharted: Life Is Strange Edition. Instead of trying to recover some ancient artifact, you're actually just trying to navigate the complicated lost city of High School and the boss fight is getting Derrick to agree to go to Homecoming.
