Loving the dialouge in this game. I know this sounds VERY STRANGE, but I'm taking my sweet time with this game just taking everything in like I would with a beautiful women. :ohlawd:

Also trying to get most of the trophies.
That's the best part of this game for me. The characters and story are much deeper. I love that.

And you can tell worked very hard on that part.
I am STILL in amazement with that Crash Bandicoot part and Drake and Elena talking about the game while you play! By that just alone I knew this game was going to be an amazing experience.

If this is deep, oh man I can't imagine how the next TLOU is gonna be like.

If that was great to you, wait until you get to the end. :wow: It was just heartwarming. I didn't want it to end but alas it did. .Idk if they can make another Uncharted with different characters...

i loved the last of us, thought the uncharted games were just ok.

beat this last night and thought it was amazing

this shyt felt like a movie, the production is pretty aazing

best looking game i have ever played, and i am a pc gamer.


One thing i hated about this game was the horrible motion blur they used, in pc games motion blur is the first thing i turn off. wish they gave us that option.

:mjlol:

Anyway, I'd rank it as a better game but that's not to put down UC2 as something that's suddenly inferior. If I had to break it down:

Story
UC4>UC2.
The story is mature, the characters are much deeper and you see a side of Nate and Elena that's more grounded. Sam's introduction doesn't feel forced or tacked on, it's explained perfectly. The story is akin to how TLOU wasn't just about whatever it was they were discussing. The characters and their relationships was really the highlight for me.

The villains are much more interesting. Nadine was my favorite villain in UC. Rafe was so/so to me. I think Lazervich was more interesting than him.

Gameplay
UC4>UC2
Not debatable here. Shooting feels weighty, guns pack heat, melee combat looks beautiful and there's a plethora of animations for almost every nuance like running and melee button might do a kick to the groins or a drop kick or w/e. Stealth is viable as you can break the line of sight of enemies and hide and then go back to a shootout if seen. The rope is a great addition, it's used liberally throughout the campaign and it feels good to use.

Sound
UC4>UC2
The score for UC4 is much more somber. The game's music fits the tone and isn't as loud and "Unchartedy" compared to UC2. I never cared for the music in UC2 and neither do I care here. It works :yeshrug: The gun sounds though are crazy. :wow:

Graphics
:pachaha:
This game oozes with art and graphics to create amazing looking shyt. I saw it on a 4K and I was like :wow:


Pacing
UC2>UC4
There's one caveat, UC2 is a shorter game and thus there's less things to do but shoot and or do a puzzle here and there. UC4 for some starts off a little slow as it's heavy on story and characters so there's a lot more cutscenes but they're so well done that this may not be a issue for anyone. I enjoyed the first few chapters(except one chapter which I thought was meh).

If you're going in expecting extreme action right from the get go it'll be a letdown. I'd say at about chapter 6 is when the game starts ramping up in action. The puzzles and exploration in here are light years ahead of UC2/3 just because of how grandiose and beautiful these locations can be. I didn't like the puzzle areas in UC3 but in here they're pretty nice.

Action
UC4>UC2
UC2 may at first seem to have more set pieces since UC4 is bigger and therefore it'll have more gameplay moments where you're just playing but nothing bombastic is happening but make no mistake, the set pieces in here if you want to call them that are very thrilling and exciting. The E3 set piece? That shyt blew me the fukk away. It may seem less crazy than drake getting blown out of a plane but I felt it was incredible. The camera work, the intensity of the score, the gameplay, the graphics it just worked magic. Also gameplay moment to moment is amazing. When you're caught and the music kicks in and enemies are shooting at you and you're jumping around, shooting, running hiding it's very hectic.

The two games are structurally different from each other. UC4 is much more character driven and the narrative is married with the gameplay so crazy stuff happens when it makes sense. It's not just shyt happening because "it's time for shyt to get real", it happens because the story naturally made this happen.

I'd put UC4 over UC2 easily because it's superior in almost all those regards with the other things being a matter of preference. It's pure fan service and it shows in the beginning of the game and near the end.

There's so many references to past things that are much more appreciated when you remember them.

both are 10/10 games for different reasons imo. This is a more "grown up" Uncharted so some may not like it because they rather the series stagnant and be a one trick pony. It's like someone saying they don't like an artist's latest album because of the shift in message/tone compared to they old shyt. Illmatic to Life is Good if you may.
