Why Uncharted 4 is a Disappointment After Playing The Last of Us

Uncharted 4 takes its emotional cues from The Last of Us, before spoiling itself as it nears its conclusion.

[IGiveHugs2NakedWomen]

Huh? Uncharted 4 wasn't meant to be a successor to TLOU. It was meant to be the successor to Uncharted 3...

Who writes this stuff?

[CowbopBeboy]

Successor as in the next Naughty Dog game. Obviously not the next The Last of Us game.

[IGiveHugs2NakedWomen]

"Uncharted 4 is a disappointing successor to a Naughty Dog game?"
Uncharted 3?

[one2thr]

The smear campaign continues...

[Xavy]

U4 a critically acclaimed masterpiece of this gen is clearly a "Disappointment" a very "fitting" word to describe this game with. Yeah you have no agenda. Please tell us what kinda games you like? Oh let me guess QB, SO, H5...am i right?

nvm no click for u.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

After playing the The Last of Us myself, I find Uncharted 4 to be amazing because it is a less serious and fast paced game. The only thing it disappoints me in comparison is the Multiplayer, but it is still fun. We should be content that both games feel different and that we can always go back to play both, instead of being the same thing or a rehash

I think that is one of the best things ND has done right when transitioning from one IP to another

[Ezz2013]

If you are going into Uncharted 4 looking for TLOU2
Then you have no one to blame but yourself
Those are completely different games with different goals.

[Ratty]

They should not be compared as being games in the same line or series. They have their similarities but are completely different. Just because The Last of Us was amazing doesn't mean Uncharted 4 isn't. I played both games and I can't even honestly say which I prefered.

[LP-Eleven]

I don't have a problem with your opinion (though I admit, i will take the liberty of not reading this article), but I think you knew what you were doing when you came up with that headline. It's the best way to garner attention.

I mean, had it said: "My Opinion Of Uncharted After Playing The Last Of Us", and had a different tone (according to the few that have chosen to read it, you speak much more from an objective point-of-view rather than a subjective one), you wouldn't have gotten as many clicks, and thus, it just sounds like that's what you were after.

[Eonjay]

If I were looking for hits I would be disappointed in Uncharted 4 too. Its literally the most popular exclusive this gen on the most popular platform with the most gamers. Even hot Xbox news is only as hot as its relation to PS4 news. People are attracted to negative news anyway

But seriously I like both. They are vastly different experiences.

And about the ending... its too hard to get into without spoilers but lets just say its not TLOU. Its Uncharted.
Loved the ending.

No, it never goes full on emotional in the same vain as the LOU but the tone is waaay deeper than any Uncharted before it.

[DLConspiracy]

@I give hugs

Not that I agree with this article but I could understand someone who is new to ND maybe feeling that way.

You also have to remember there are a lot of people who are new to PS since the 360. So some people got to play TLOU recently and may have been blown away by the emotional stuff it offered. It was pretty heavy. So they may have been looking forward to that kind of drama. Uncharted is different for sure but perhaps they haven't played through the uncharted series. In other words they set themselves up for failure.

[rainslacker]

Potential spoilers for those that haven't finished UC4.

If I were comparing the UC experience to TLOU, and expecting a TLOU successor, I'd probably be disappointing too. I mean, no mention of what happened to Joel and Ellie? What was the fate of the Fireflies? Where did all the Clickers go? Who the heck is Druckley? Is the girl Cassie like Ellie and why did she have so little time in the game if so? Will she die so Nate can be the new Joel? I mean, 15 hours for my first play through, and I thought it was just a prologue to build up for TLOU2, only to see the end credits roll. What a disappointment. I mean the story of U4 had so little in common with TLOU, it's hard to call it a sequel. It's like slapping a different title on COD and calling it HL3.

however, as a sequel to U3, I found it to be quite entertaining and enjoyable,and a worthy successor and conclusion to the series.

[GamingIVfun]

Uncharted 4 is the best game available this year, so far (unless ofcourse you just don't like the type of game it is in which case your opinion should be I don't like that type of game) No amount of bad journalism is going to change that, sure isn't changing how well it is selling and how many people love and enjoy the game, isn't changing how well the PS4 is selling. Just making a particular community look really dumb, desperate, jealous, un profesional. Not going to work this gen. Get over yourselves.

[Kingthrash360]

Lol I'm taking note of the blantant Xbox bias you "journalists" are.
Seriously what's up with all the hate?
It's embarrassing.
Uncharted 4 is the best, most complete game ever seen in gaming. Tlou is also one of the best most complete games in gaming...it's a ND game....leave it up to xbot "journalists" to make articles about nothing.
Facepalm.

[magiciandude]

Honestly the game is a disappointment. I expected to play the very best game ever made but no it wasn't. Combat was mediocre, more than enough QTEs, stealth wasn't anything special, unoriginal story, etc. Great graphics though.

[Xavy]

Says the Xboxfanboy, please go back to your Condom Broke the so called masterpiece as you predicted.

[Genuine-User]

"Combat was mediocre"

smh

Here's a small sample of UC4's hand to hand and weapon based combat played by yours truly:

https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Same encounter, but now with semi stealth approach:

https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[DillyDilly]

Can the Sony fan boys go whine about Metascore ?

[BiggerBoss]

Magician, weren't you the one claiming Gears and QB were "AAAA" games? Lmao your agenda is embarrassing

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

"Combat was mediocre"
You suck at it. Nothing more

"More than enough QTES"
Pressing Triangle do push stuff are not Quick Time Events.

"Stealth wasn't anything special"
As opposed to what? It's not even a stealth game

"Unoriginal story"
Excuse me?

[Rookie_Monster]

@magicandude,

Even though I am a huge Uncharted fan and love it's combat very much, I do know it is not for everyone so I respect your opinion on this matter just like I also respect a few negative opinions on Quantum Break, Rise of the Tomb Raider and a few positive opinions on The Orders 1886 and Ryse. Everything is and can be subjective.

Like I always say, different strokes for different folks. The attack on you is unwarranted, tbh

[magiciandude]

"Combat was mediocre"
You suck at it. Nothing more

I played the game on hard, aim assist off, and only died once...ONCE! How bad is that!? ;)

[Inzo]

More than enough QTEs? WTF are you on about?

[BossBattle]

The combat was basic. You have 1 button to punch/fight. Triangle to get out of a hold. Then circle to roll away. It doesn't get any more basic than that. The game feels like it was rushed. I think Naughty Dog needed a few more months. But for the time they had they did a good job. But the Last Of Us is their best game ever. No doubt about that.

[ShadowKnight]

It was a lot better than Quantum Broken. I mean Quantum break. I'm still waiting for Microsoft to make a great exclusive. TBH I only use my Xbox one to play BC and old games now.

[moegooner88]

It is like you are not even trying anymore.

[Ricegum]

TheRandomOne

Please come back when your Xbox One has any exclusive that even comes close to anything over 90 on Metacritic lol. Have fun with your mediocre games.

[BIGBOSS08]

this is as pathetic as it gets. passing an opinion on a game you havent even played.

[magiciandude]

Like The Last of US, Uncharted 4 has repetitive combat that feels the same throughout the whole game. Not enough variety.

[dafegamer]

you think quantum break is a masterpiece, and the game fails at many levels, be it narrative or as game design.
People should take your opinion as a huge grain of salt

[ShadowKnight]

@Magician Did Halo 5 campaign have variety? Nope. Was it repetitive? Yep. Was the story great? Awful. I'm glad I own all consoles so that I know if a game is good or not so that I can judge for myself. The best game on Xbox one is Ori and Tomb Raider IMO and those are not exclusives

[trooper_]

....snore.

Go play Quantum Boredom and quit pretending that you even played Uncharted 4.

[magiciandude]

Expected Uncharted 4 to seriously blow my mind. Nope it didn't. More repetitive combat just like the other three UC games and TLOU. Even graphics aren't as good as expected. It has some issues like texture pop-ins, crushed blacks, jagged edges. Maybe Dark Souls III spoiled me, but that game is seriously the best game I've played this whole generation and I play it on PS4. People think I am some Xbot and don't even own a PS4, it's hilarious. But really, Uncharted 4 and TLOU are two of the most overrated games of all time, from a studio that die hard fans call the Naughty Gods. Lmao. They're just human. Now that is pathetic, if you ask me. ;)

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

Users like you just like to grasp onto anything and the least problematic thing to try to bring game down, while turn around and have no problem with other games with more issues and maybe worse.

I find that more pathetic than people jokingly calling them "naughty gods."

It's like you think we are fools here and we don't know where your bias leans on... You called QB a masterpiece plenty of times and never had a single issue with it, yet with U4 there is a problem.

Yeah right!
No one is gonna take you seriously.

And you only died once? Bullshit!

[magiciandude]

"And you only died once? Bullshit!"

You need to get good at games, because Uncharted 4 isn't hard at all.

[81BX]

@xavy
Dont get all emotional. The guy thinks its crap, clearly hes the minority but even if he dislikes the core gameplay he couldnt deny the beauty lol.

[joab777]

What game did you play? And please use actual comparisons. The stealth mechanic is as good as any game I've played. Set in the open world with various ways to hide, the AI is actually much smarter than most games (though I played on hard). They stop short of you, take different routes etc.

To be honest, the combat is amazing. They drop you in encounters that seem impossible, but once you figure out the landscape, the weapons available etc., you make a plan and get through. The partner AI is damn good too, without being god like.

The story is phenomonal, there's a wide range of weapons, animations are some of the best ever made, especially in combat. Just the insane number of actions that can be taken is nuts.

Obviously, it's the best looking game I've ever seen, art direction etc. The acting is AAA. I just dunno where people come from on this shit, and I'm not even an action fan. I prefer Dark Souls and rpgs.

There's just no denying the sheer quality of this game.

[kraenk12]

You seriously think anyone of us believes that you own a PS4?! One of the worst X-men on here...

[TwoForce]

Guess what ? Your reputation will be mark as low troll of gaming community. Sure, it is your opinion. But here the thing, you use your ignorant to get away with your troll. That doesn't work. I will judge your reputation for being predending and troll.

[TwoForce]

@TheRandomOne What about you ? Here the thing, Uncharted is not last of us.

[game4funz]

All true. Production values off the roof however. This game reminds me of Dragon age inquisition. Highly praised by all but definitely a worse game then it's predecessors from characters to combat and world.

[Stereotypical_gamer]

I hear all the points that your making and I'll agree that they have dumbed down some of there hand to hand mechanics but I have to tell you that if you think the combat is mediocre and repetitive then I don't think that the action genre is for you.

[ziggurcat]

@magician RE: "crushed blacks"

that's your TV settings/console RGB mode setting, not the game. Set your RGB mode to limited, and turn off any of the black enhancement filters on your TV (those should never be utilized to begin with - no one who knows anything about colour calibration has them enabled).

nice try, though.

[Gol3m]

Did alright @genuine_user. I sheathed that part in my first play through

[Gol3m]

OT if UC4 is mediocre but gears and QB are AAAA titles then UC4 has to be AAAAAAAA. And @TheRandomOne crawl back in your cave. It's nice to see you but you've come here to hate simply because hating is considered the hipstereo thing to do.

[Realms]

Let me guess QB was way more enjoyable,unique and full of innovation.LOL

[rainslacker]

"Uncharted 4 has repetitive combat that feels the same throughout the whole game. Not enough variety."

LOL, and yet you praise QB which had less variety in it's combat? Use power, kill. Walk around. Do some platforming with occasional time manipulation. That's QB in a nutshell.

At least with UC4 you had different approaches you could take to combat. Not so for QB.

LOL. That's all I can say. I'll even say it twice. LOL.

Also, crushed blacks?

Sorry, played this on a brand new Samsung 4K 55" TV that I calibrated day one a couple weeks ago. It was remarkable just how much detail there was in the black, and white, spectrum compared to less capable TV's. Despite doing graphics for a living, I saw more detail in the picture than I do on my high end monitors at work. Best advice I can give to you, go get AVCHD, and read how to calibrate your TV. If it's a sucky TV, it will only get you so far, but will still be better. If you have a really good TV, the difference will be night or day.

I don't recall any texture pop in, but do recall some LOD draw delays at times when focus changes. However that was rare.

I saw some jaggies from time to time, but if that's a negative judgement of the game, you must downrate every console game out there, including DS3.

[Bathyj]

@Genuine-User

Great example of how varied the gameplay can be in Uncharted and how you can play to your own style, which is how I like my games.

I think this sums it up nicely.

http://imgur.com/gallery/WF...

[MagicBeanz]

Honestly your trolling and fanboying is a disappointment, stop pretending you played the game it wont work in your xbone.

[Trekster_Gamer]

Nothing special but graphics, they took a queue from Tomb Raider as well in many cases.

[morganfell]

Anyone that says the game had more than enough QTEs just proved they did not play the game. Period. What QTEs? You just pwned yourself.

[phoenix_dusk]

Jak and Daxter, a successor of Uncharted.

Ehhh do you know how foolish you sound with that comment?

[CowbopBeboy]

As mentioned in a previous comment, it was a cumbersome title so it was edited. That isn't exactly the focal point of the piece - the 2,000 words beneath it explains the argument.

[Haru]

Probably a retard

[Utalkin2me]

It's young teeny boppers that want to be game journalist. They dont have a lick of writing skills to keep people tuned in, so they go overboad with headlines and titles and make random stuff up. That's why as a community we need to skip this garbage, dont click it or even debate the title. And just move on.

[Chivas11]

Next thing you know, they're gonna write an article saying Uncharted is a disappointing successor of Crash Bandicoot

[trooper_]

All I can think of is 'sigh....not another one....'

[Goldby]

I can understand aspects that may make people disapointed. While yes Sam was shown in almost all the trailers, the fact that they used him in the opening boat scene only to go back in time and see him "die."

I actually just recently wrote a review and in it i addressed this issue. When used properly, a characters apparent death/actual death can be a very strong plot point and help with the story. unfortunately for myself at least, i found that it wasn't used properly in Uncharted 4. if they had started with that scene when his brother gets shots and falls, it would have been more effective.

it still is a great game, and the title for this article is clearly for click bait purposed only. it was a little flaw in an amazing story, but it wasn't a complete disappointment

[ravinash]

While I agree with you, there had been enough trailers and clips showing his brother in other scenes that we knew he was coming back... and it's not long into the game when he re-appears.
I think it was just a tool to explain why he never appeared in earlier games and constructed the reasons why they got into this adventure.

[rainslacker]

I don't think it was meant to be a major story reveal, more just to establish why he's never been mentioned in the past. They didn't even go into great lengths to establish how that made his character feel, because it was unimportant as everyone knew he was alive.

Major story reveal would him being believed dead, yet Nate goes on his adventure to avenge him, or whatever, only to find out in the 3rd act that he was the villain all along.

That being said, I do recall the reveal trailer about the guy sounding pissed off for being left in prison for all those years, and how everyone thought that would be an aspect of the game story. Yet there was no malice to Sam towards his brother for what happened to him. Maybe a change in direction of the story at some point?

[Erik7357]

No...but he just saying that ithe just wasn't as good as the last of us...not saying it was so post to be like it. I agree, I like the last of us franchise more.

[Majister-Ludi]

God you are thick. He makes some good points. I thought the last of us is head and shoulders better than uncharted in every way except set pieces. The gameplay requires a lot more thought and skill since your ammo is much more limited. Even had a rudimentary crafting system. To me uncharted is severely lacking in depth compared to last of us which is why it's disappointing.

You people really are sad. Uncharted is not perfect so when an article happens that says so you all lose your mind. If you think uncharted is perfect you have issues.

[rainslacker]

I actually think he did as well, despite my sarcasm to some of his comments in the thread. I did feel however some of his comments were off base in the comparison, because he's comparing things that shouldn't be compared. However, if one were to compare most games to TLOU, they would be disappointing, which is why it's not really a good idea to hold other games to the same standard.

I felt both games did what they did well. Both were different enough from one another to not judge one by the other.

Comparing them as a progression of ND work. That's kind of hard for me. They were both good in different ways, and I was looking for different things from both of them. I feel both of them delivered on what I was looking for from them, so I wasn't disappointed in either.

[MRMagoo123]

we have a name for these sites now guys, from this day forth they are known as Para-sites

[3-4-5]

hahah WTF is craveonline ?

Do they only enjoy one game ?

[destroyerz1]

Remember kids, don't feed clickbait opinions. Stay away from what you don't like to hear. It will only give more money to those websites. If you love Uncharted, don't mind these clickbait articles. Just play the game and have fun.

[ThyMasterDebater]

Just garbage article on this site today.

[Mr-Dude]

Lol, if you comparing TLOU as a successor to UC4 then you are really bad informed, and should't be writing articles like this. Hell, not even be "working" as a so called game journalist. Maybe go work as a amateur writer or something.

[joab777]

I actually think they showed great restraint with the U4 story. Coming from TLOU, it could have gone off the rails very easily.

[DLConspiracy]

We should start a petition against him to get this article removed.

[MRMagoo123]

maybe we can start a petition to force your mother to have a very late abortion.

edit: nope not all but thanks

[DLConspiracy]

@Mr ago

Bit much. Don't you think?

Edit: No worries. Let it out man. You'll live.

[Majin-vegeta]

I dont even...

[81BX]

I know.... its hard to believe some people cant appreciate a master piece. UC4 will go down as a master piece no doubt but even then a handful will not like it, it just happens. Like me, i think harry potter is lame as hell but clearly im the minority.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

The problem is the hating curture of the Internet. It's not that we can't appreciate others that don't like it, most on this site are the same confirmed contrarians or PS4 haters with their nauseating standards and nonsensical complains

It's like me saying Halo 5 MP sucks, then turn around and say Killzone SF MP is great and better...

I now it happens a lot because: 1) it's an exclusive, and 2) everyone loves it and it irks them, especially if their fav game didn't meet the same reception.

[game4funz]

Most of the hate actually is in the forums and not in the articles.

Craveonline really are some of the most fickle out of the bunch.. These sites would be welcome in that film 'Idiocracy'. A successor to TLOU? Are they serious?

EDIT: So this moron just changed the heading because he must have realised how dumb it was. Nothing like the public correcting you, ey?

You can thanks us later.

[CowbopBeboy]

The use of successor, while still correct given that Uncharted 4 did succeed The Last of Us in Naughty Dog's library of games, was a little cumbersome so we replaced it. Also, it's only a headline - the 2,000 words beneath the headline outlining the article's arguments are more worthwhile than a title.

[Krangs_Uncle]

If it's "only a headline", then why change it? I didn't even give you a click to be honest - I never do.

[UltraNova]

"it's only a headline - the 2,000 words beneath the headline outlining the article's arguments are more worthwhile than a title."

No it not just a headline when you purposefully and shamelessly use the few words available on your title to generate click bait revenue by attempting to tarnish the image of a universally critically acclaimed video game in a what has to be the most miss-informed way possible so far.

"Uncharted 4 is a disappointing successor to a Naughty Dog game" - Really?

[ziggurcat]

"The use of successor, while still correct given that Uncharted 4 did succeed The Last of Us in Naughty Dog's library of games..."

no. to call it a successor, the game has to be a part of the *same* series...

[Gol3m]

Now youre trying to sell your shitty article. Well done. Desperation at its finest

[rainslacker]

The problem is, regardless of the headline, is your comparing a cumulative work of two titles from one studio which aren't directly comparable....at least not the way your asserting it can be compared.

They're two different games.

Lets look at another example to remove it from the subjective

DontNod entertainment. They had a game which was mostly well received with a lot of mixed feelings, but mostly gone unnoticed Remember Me about 5 years ago. Great game. Did a lot of things right. Had a great story, interesting mechanics, superb characters and character development, and did justice to the genre IMO. Had it's flaws, but overall an enjoyable experience.

Then you have their next piece of work, Life is Strange. Wholly and completely different, yet more people are aware of it, it was critically acclaimed, and got a lot of notice from the players. Had all the same aspects of the prior game except for different game play, but if one is looking for the same thing as they got in Remember Me, they will be disappointed, because they are two approaches to different aspects of how to design and present a game and it's story.

The only thing that UC and TLOU have in common is they're both story driven adventure games with some sort of cover shooting mechanic that is implemented to varying degrees. The stories are obviously different, however, the UC story is meant to be delivered differently than TLOU. I don't feel ND at any time tried to make the story of UC4 as meaningful or impactful as TLOU, and instead tried to stay true to the series. They didn't try to build the same relationship between characters, nor have people feel about the characters as deeply with UC.

So basically, you're comparing two different things from their work, and trying to apply TLOU as the gauge of what their work should be.

I accept that you like TLOU better. I would actually agree because I did too due to the overall experience. However, There were things in UC4 which did things better than TLOU as well. I think you're trying too hard to paint them with the same brush, and your expectations were misplaced for what an UC game should be due to TLOU and what it brought to the table....which is why I find your comparison to be somewhat lacking for the benefit of discussion.

[Thatguy-310]

Uncharted is uncharted not The last of us -_-

[Gol3m]

Thanks mate. It seems these xbox faithful obviously haven't played any of them considering they can't tell the difference between them. I love all games. Play on both next Gen consoles but UC4 is the best game I've played in a bloody long time. The article is kind of like me saying that Gears is a mediocre successor to Halo 5.

[rainslacker]

I thought UC was a prequel to TLOU. Man, you mean after all these years, all that build up was for nothing. UC just went down 5 points in my book. /s

[corroios]

This PR attack on the sucess of UC4 is just sad. Every single day we get 2 or 3 «news» like this. What they should be talking is games that cost milion that floped hard on the market...

[CowbopBeboy]

Or maybe not everyone was gushing with praise about Uncharted, and criticisms of the game are just as valid as any other opinion even if they don't align with your own?

[Krangs_Uncle]

You are a fanboy publication.. You have proved it time and time again. No one takes you seriously.

[corroios]

What is funny is that this kind of opinions dont stop the biggest game of this generation. A game that top the ranking in all markets, that is setting standard, that doesnt have any kind of competition.

In a gen full of remasters, where the competition biggest news is playing old games on the «next gen console?!!! Amazing stuff.

Good constructive criticism, not the trash you and DarkLink have published.

[trooper_]

Keep reaching buddy.

[objdadon]

I know you don't really believe that lol. Nothing wrong with legit criticism but these arti8are strictly click bait, nothing more.

[agame914]

Honestly your just trying to be "different" the uncharted series is absolutely incredible. What you are trying to do is get "clicks" I didn't even bother reading your article. Can you honestly say that uncharted 4 is a bad game? I mean damn if uncharted 4 is a bad game in your eyes what does that make quantum break?

[TwoForce]

Or your avatar to show you are Nintendo fanboy ?

[rainslacker]

Criticisms which say UC is not TLOU are not really criticisms, rather statements of fact. Unfortunately, you compare the two as if they are indeed the same, and should be compared by the same objective measure.

You took it from the fact that you believe TLOU is a better game, to actually comparing the two as the same thing. You placed expectations on UC4 based on your experience with TLOU, which are not proper to place when trying to assert your opinion, as one game not being to your liking as much as another is not a criticism, rather it's a subjective view that can be explained objectively, however does fall mostly into the subjective realm of critique. You're criticizing based on what your expectations are, as opposed to what the dev tried to deliver. You don't bother to criticize on if what ND delivered is good or not, rather that they didn't deliver another TLOU. If you focused your criticisms based entirely what the dev delivered, and even compared that to what they delivered with TLOU in terms of it's impact on you, it'd be a different discussion.

The fact you have to explain yourself so much is evidence that you either did a poor job of delivering your opinion, or that your opinion is off base, and people are calling you out on it.

There are certainly comparable aspects of the two games which could be discussed endlessly. They fall in the same genre of games, and they have different styles in terms of progression, story, presentation etc. However, the application of your views on UC4 being a disappointment because it wasn't TLOU are what make your premise off base.

[Malacath]

Yes people have a right to their own opinions on games.

I personally think it's a great game but for me the long repetitive gun battles brought it down. There were some sections that you simply couldn't use stealth and were forced into those annoying long gun battles with loads of enemies. One mistake and you had to reload and do the whole thing again. It gets repetitive reloading checkpoints and doing the gun battles over and over again.

There are games I thought were much better that had lower review scores. Alien Isolation is one game. That had mixed review but for me it was a better game. It's all just down to personal tastes.

[seanpitt23]

I can understand where he is coming from TLOU was perfection on every level and no matter how good uc4 is it will for me never be as good as TLOU.

[BossBattle]

It happened to Quantum Break also.

[Gol3m]

QB was deserving of its criticism. It was not a finished product. Maybe stop bringing it up all the time so the failure can finally rest

@BossBattle

You'll never see me say Knack or Infamous were fantastic games. I never played knack and I finished Infamous but it was no more than a 7/10 for me.

There is some very minor flaws with uncharted 4. Not many at all. But I'd be curious to see what you think it's flaws were because let's face it you're probably wrong even opinions can be wrong if they're not backed up. @BossBattle and Sony Fan girl I am not. But it seems you're spending an awful lot of time in ps4 articles instead of playing that supposed fantastic game QB.
As for not having played QB there you'd be wrong. I've played enough of it to form an opinion on it. You however haven't played uncharted 4. I'll put money on that, you're just clinging to things you read from click bait articles and running with them

@Gol3m Uncharted 4 wasn't finished. Too many flaws that you sony girls overlooked. Every game Sony releases is praised by you fanboys. You even swear Knack was great or even Infamous. Uncharted 4 has flaws. I could name a few and you'd know I've played it from my description. But you can't do the same with Quantum Break.

[Gol3m]

@CowbopBeboy sure you're welcome to have your own opinion but as we approach 95 critically acclaimed reviews for UC4 it's safe to say you're not even in a minority. And it's also safe to say your opinion how ever much it is your own and belongs solely to you, is incorrect. 100% unarguably incorrect.

You can't just write an article to garner clicks because that is all that you are doing. Not once in your ramblings did you actually touch on something that is to be considered an issue to bring down UC4, which is funny because there are some flaws you could have used to actually form a decent argument, these issues I could see from a genuine review bringing the score down to an 8.5 at the lowest.

It's a sad state of affairs when even opinion pieces are trying the click bait approach. Suse I understand you function on revenue but lowering yourself to click bait is one of the lowest things a site can do. It's better to actually write intelligent articulate articles that people want to read. Im not talking about pandering to either side of the pretend 'console war' I'm talking about writing articles that capture people's imaginations so next time you review a game or offer up your opinion your site is thought of as offering up intelligent conversational pieces.

As for the actual article presented today it is one of the worst articles I've ever read. You don't back up your arguments and the way you offer up your opinion actually makes it seem like you didn't actually play the game because there's things you talk about that are just plain wrong.

Anyway enjoy being part of the smallest minority in game journalism spouting crap for clicks on a critically acclaimed game.

[generic-user-name]

The no name sites are all coming out of the woodwork now, looking for a piece.

[BossBattle]

Those are the ones that tore Quantum Break down.

[Ricegum]

Nope, bigger sites tore into Quantum Break as well, not Uncharted.

Hence the poor reviews for QB

[BossBattle]

@unreal01 you also have sites that hyped uncharted 4 up because the game is not all that. I could make a long list why. It's not even the best in the series. The series is done because it ran out of ideas. Quantum Break was the first of it's series and has room to grow. Majorly Uncharted 1 is not the favorite. QB had good reviews overall even plenty of tens despite you sony fanboys gathering in numbers to tear every Xbox exclusive down.

[Inzo]

QB isnt a particularly good game, its just the way it is. Sorry

[BossBattle]

@Inzo because you've never played it

[Gol3m]

BossBattle don't be a little bitch. QB got torn apart by reputable reviewers because it was unfinished. Stop being a conspiracy theorist and subscribing to the thought that Sony fanboys somehow influenced the reviews QB was recieving.

[maniacmayhem]

Compared to all the well known sites that praised it and got hits.

#dealwithit

[Paytaa]

I prefer The Last of Us to the Uncharted series as a whole, but comparing the two doesn't make sense to me. Both accomplish very different things.

Uncharted 4 provides the same type of quality that ND delivered with TLOU and then some with the new hardware.

Not once while I've been playing UC4 have I acknowledged TLOU. I've actually been comparing it to Uncharted 2 because the leap forward in set-pieces, graphics, and animations are top notch similar to how UC2 set the bar for all those things in 2009.

[rainslacker]

I'm the same way. You ask me for a list of my top 5 favorite games, and TLOU would be right there in the one or two position depending on my mood. UC wouldn't make the top 5, despite how much I do love the games and the series.

When I popped in UC4, I wasn't expecting TLOU, or anything like it beyond the genre. I was expecting an UC game, and to me, ND delivered in spades, with a lot of improvement to the series as a whole, along with plenty of technical advancement that one just has to marvel over.

[Relientk77]

Both amazing masterpieces

People always got to turn positives into negatives

-_-

[Inzo]

Yip, dont know what the issue is. Both done by ND, both masterpieces and both exclusive to the PS4. Uncharted 4's SP is done and dusted and what a ride that was but I can assure that if TLOU is announced at E3 this year I will probably wet myself. Loved the Uncharted series and love TLOU. Win, win.

[TwoForce]

Even those two are both Naughty Dog games. But they are completely different.

[shammgod]

[Mr-Dude]

It's just sad that everyday a parasite article like this spawn just for clicks. Then they try to justify themselfs in the comments, but still fail. It's okay if you don't like the game, but there are way worse games out there, way worse game developers, but they all get a pass. Make a article of that, you know perfectly fine which games and developers, etc. But still you won't do that, because articles like this is what brings the big money...

Really, really sad and unprofessional

[markte]

To sum it all up, the game has a happy ending instead of a grim gut punch of moral ambiguity. So it's a letdown.
I can't be the only one tired of this drab pessimism that is taking over entertainment. It's as if having a happy ending/positive outlook has become a bad thing.

[Rookie_Monster]

Both are different franchises but many elements from UC4 borrows from TLOU so I can see something there.

I still love TLOU more, tbh. Not disappointed with UC4 as it is indeed a great game but I love TLOU more.

[Goldby]

same here, Sam's prison scene felt lifted from Last of Us, in the sense of using a "death" to move the plot. unfortunately we all knew Sam was alive after the Boat scene at the beginning so it took away from that Prison scene...

[Gol3m]

Well actually no you couldn't really consider it taking away from the prison scene as it wasn't clear which event happened first.

[PaleMoonDeath]

Very different games, if I went in expecting a Last of Us game I'dbe disapointed too, but y'know, I got Uncharted in an Uncharted game.

[Snakefist30]

And the hate continues!

[AdmGenAladeen]

Trying to get a piece of that pie huh? I wonder what the over/under on pieces like this will be before it stops? Tell all your circle jerk buddies we don't care to see anymore clickbait headlines.

[harypotr]

Uncharted 4 is everything I hate with modern games AAA games. It tries so hard to be like a movie, that it falls flat as a video game. Video game developers copying movie industry is going to be the death of video games.

[BiggerBoss]

Sorry but you're wrong. Yes the production values and motion capture are SO good it's like a movie, whereas most games have wooden characters and a shit story. Uncharted 4 ALSO has great gameplay though, which is why I'm already halfway through my second play through.

The whole "it's a movie not a game" smear is laughable, you should be embarrassed.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

Goddamn I hate that attitude. It's annoying and so counter productive... The Movie feel of this series doesn't stop it from being a game. There's still lots of game interactions.

[harypotr]

No it does not have great gameplay. It is generic and full of filler boring segments. I think the same about Tomb Raider. These games are so boring, and focus too much on being movies and taking the controls from you all the time. It is so annoying.

[Gol3m]

You're welcome to your opinion @harypotr but know you're in the tiniest of minorities and when it comes to the Grand scheme of things in the future your opinion will be laughed at

[rainslacker]

Funny thing is, this game had the "movie" stuff almost as interactive as the rest of the game. During the clock tower scene, you actually had to platform to get through it. Most of the set pieces in the game were built with game play in mind, as opposed to just the less interactive QTE approach most games take. Imagine how many people were frantically pressing X and trying to figure out how to keep from falling during that scene as it moved so fast and you had limited time to make a decision. It's draws you into the cinematic experience, makes you engaged, by using game mechanics so one can feel what the character would feel in that situation. About the only thing they could do more would be making it so you didn't have just one way to execute it all, making it more frantic as it progressed if you missed certain things.

I think UC4 actually succeeds in blending the cinematic experience with game play itself, and those who haven't played it can't really understand that. It was so seamless, I've seen many people state that the game had very few set pieces, or none at all, despite the fact it had more than the entire series combined. You had the car chase(which was several different set pieces), the clock tower, a couple falling buildings, the boat chase, the run and gun scene to get to the plane, a scene being chased by an armored truck, and a couple others I can't think of off the top of my head. None of them were presented in the same way most set pieces are.

As far as the quality. My dad saw part of the 1st chapter on my second play through, during the fight scene in the prison right after the prologue, and he said, "That's like watching a movie". If he hadn't known I was playing a game, he might have thought it was. But that scene, and many more like it were completely interactive.

[TwoForce]

Then you are wrong. So you want to force everyone to please you ? Pathetic.

Edit : oh really, an arrogant ?

[harypotr]

I am never wrong

[IGiveHugs2NakedWomen]

People have been saying the same nonsense about pre-orders and remasters. Guess what? Video games are still here...

[Kaneki-Ken]

I know is your opinion, and I respect you giving your point of view but you must understand Movies can't accomplish what games can. Video Games can accomplish more action, and can create the impossible while movies are held back and are limited in time, action in the stories. Movies industry try to makes the action scenes from Video games and many times fail flat, they also try adapt the games into movies which in history of video games movie it show that it's almost impossible to adapt and reimagine the action, Scene since is limited by time and budget. In this generation Video Games look like movies because the writer or creator borrow the feeling and image his work as movie in which can express. Video Game has been borrowing ideas from movies back in PS1 days, look at MGS series or Splinter Cell or many more borrow idea but today Video Games are borrowing less from Movies since they have limits so Video Games have surpassed Movies in order to bigger Action, well written Story, Scenes that are no longer limited and Movies now are borrowing ideas from games. Many movie writer are inspired by video games scene like Uncharted 3 plane scene which was a huge thing or Uncharted 2 Train crash scene. (Sorry for bad grammar and if some stuff doesn't make sense or add up, sorry I was rushing writing fast this comments)

[CrimsonWing69]

How many of these click-bait articles are there going to be? We get it you don't think the game is great. That's life, not everyone is going to like the same thing, but who cares? Do we really need these articles from every person that disagrees with the majority? Hey I don't like craveonline.com, guess I better go and write a piece to let everyone know why and why my opinion is so worth everybody elses time.

I swear, if a game is getting unanimous praise we have to wade through a bunch of garbage articles on why everyone who likes the game is wrong or why so and so thinks it's a P.O.S.

It can't be that slow of a day in the office that you can't come up with something better that contributes a bit more to the gaming community than a silly opinionated rant.

[OB1Biker]

they aren't even trying anymore with these articles lol, just keep the salt coming, it's freaking delicious

[343_Guilty_Spark]

Some of the negative reviews for Uncharted 4 don't have merit. I felt similarly about certain review scores about Quantum Break (I thought the game was well put together and no worst than a 8). However all things considered Uncharted 4 is not a perfect game. I know many think it is but it is not. The stealth sections are questionable, melee combat is average, the shooting mechanics don't really add anything new to the genre, and a lot of in game events are heavily scripted. There are other flaws, such as the game being extraordinarily bright but they don't take too much from the overall game. My point though is that there are valid criticism just as there were with QB (which was mercilessly crucified on N4g for obvious reasons) and that fans of Uncharted should be tad more open to hearing them. The fact that the WP writer was receiving death threats just shows that the amount of rabid fanboyism has reached ridiculous levels and people need to really chill. It's not that serious.

[OB1Biker]

Stop bringing QB about its completely off topic. If you had issues with questionable reviews and click bait about it then by all means make your voice heard in those articles.
Similarly dont do like the media and put the blame on gamers because there are idiots on the internet and dodge the real issues in gaming journalism the way the media dodge them by pointing the finger at gaming communities and listing a collection of BS said by 'gamers'.
As for your criticism of Uncharted 4, well your are entitled to have an opinion but taking your points : I wouldnt say there are 'stealth sections' since you can go gun blazing any time if your wish while I did enjoy the stealth a lot. The only thing I could find fault really in previous uncharted game was gunplay and how weak weapons feel while those have improved a lot in U4 and I absolutely loved the shooting feeling. Scripted play are part of uncharted games you like it or not is matter of opinion but they always have been
Edit: yea I forgot, melee combat is straight awesome IMO with nice additions. All in all its your uncharted game gameplay brought to another level. The overall game is more personal and focusing on ND story though and I feel it's just how it should be for a farewell

[The7Reaper]

If you went in to Uncharted 4 expecting it to be a sequel to The Last of Us or something you are mentally handicapped.

[Livecustoms]

Wtf ? but there 2 completely different games and genre's. This must be click bait

[Aenea]

Hahahahaha, after some people saw the hubbub about the negative review in the Washington Post more of them thought making negative articles about UC4 would get some clicks!

[GearSkiN]

the game was amazing but LOU still my number one game of all time!

[Skankinruby]

Disappointment is a harsh word. And while I disagree, even if this were true it would be a pointless claim since 99 percent of games are inferior to the last of us.....

[Hoffmann]

Why I didn't read this blog.

[guywazeldatatt]

I felt nothing playing this game. It is mediocre. But that's just me.

[Goldby]

same here for some scene, i had my moments of joy and laughter at some of the scenes. still a great game. better than alot of games of the same caliber

[TwoForce]

Oh really ? Is that so, Ninboy ?

[Dark_Knightmare2]

Oh we know from your comments on that other article where you straight up lied and made it seem like you didn't even play the game. What I'm wondering is if you didn't like it that's fine but why come to articles about it. I mean there's games I'm not into and whenever an article pops up about it you sure as hell won't find me in it wasting my time and acting like my opinion is the be all end all. So maybe take my advice and next time you see an uncharted article you just keep on scrolling by and not waste time commenting on a game you didn't like and most likely didn't play judging from your previous comments.

[Gol3m]

Darklink28. Your opinion is mediocre

You are right, its just you.

The Last of Us was the better game in my opinion but Uncharted 4 is a LEGENDARY game too nonetheless.

[GrimDragon]

Lol and yet another article ripping Nathan a new one.....conspiracy?

[cyclindk]

I wouldn't call UC4 a disappointment and certainly not due to what was accomplished with TLOU, but I could definitely say my preferences have shifted toward TLOU in terms of game play styles, even the universe I find more appealing. I never was much for the whole treasure-hunting thing to begin with.

[Morgue]

What's disappointing is not the fact that articles like this are written, it's the fact that everyone takes the bait.

ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED - INTERNET DRAMA - 5G

[opinionated]

So wait... You're actually mad that uncharted 4 became an UNCHARTED GAME in the last 4 chapters? I'm more disappointed that the first 15 chapters sucked ass. Yes, they were pointless. You're mad it didn't continue being pointless lol. TLOU fanboys.... Smh

i dont actually blame the fucked author that wrote this for click-bait purposes..im gonna blame n4g for allowing stupid people with stupid opinions who nobody gives a shit about post nonsense..this is the 3rd stupid headline about u4 i have heard this week...if you know u ddint like uncharted..just fucking jump of the Eiffel tower....this shit is getting annoying..and what the fuck is a craveonline.com..someone should just hack the domain and shut them off for good

[MilkMan]

This article is the pits. With much respect to the author. This article has no basis in reality. TLoU is its own unique world and story. Uncharted has been and always will be an action adventure game, with emphasis on the action. Even its new stealth mechanics are not meant to be Splinter Cell or MGS. Its stealth a-la Uncharted and everything that entails.
Please never compare these games ever again, in anything other than the name of the developers.

One last note, their is a subtlety in the story. It is absolutely plausible for Nathan's wife to behave the way she did. These are folks that love each other and have shared much. Please refer to your own life experience, maturity level (it varies by age) and the story of Uncharted in general.

[PS4PC]

The Last of Us is a gem

[76erz24]

This article complains *SPOILER* that Nate never shows his anger over Sam's lie, and instead automatically forgives him. But this assertion proves the writer clearly didn't see the full emotional swing the latter half of the game produced. Nate realizes he can't be mad at his brother, because he is no different. He lied to Elena, just like Sam lied to him. He had his justification for helping his brother to lie to his wife, just as his brother had the justification of fulfilling their childhood promise and legacy. In the scene where they find the dead pirate captains around the table, Nate is thrilled but what is in front of him, despite the fact that his brother is in danger and he and his wife still are too. Elena looks at him in that scene, and Nate just says "I'm sorry." He realized that he needed this adventure as much as Sam did, that he loved it as much as Sam did. And he thought he'd matured beyond that. How can he be mad at his brother when he is no different then him, except just a little bit further down the path to realizing he'll never be satisfied by the next adventure.

Wow what an amazing game!

[sdcard4gb]

The Last of Us itself was disappointing.
And before you start arguing do watch this - https://www.youtube.com/wat...
:)))
I know, I just made you choke on your own words, eh ? :)

[76erz24]

This is literally a video of a guy playing on easy and then complaining that the AI is too stupid. Go figure.

[sdcard4gb]

He clearly states that most of his footage is from "Survivor" difficulty, you didn't even watch the entire thing, mate.

[sdcard4gb]

So, uh, any further replies ?) Or are dislikes supposed to be considered as the reply :D ?

[sdcard4gb]

Well, seems I won the argument XD

[Ezz2013]

You are getting disagrees with no reply to you because gamers just disagree with you and your video
No one need to explan that to you
But i will
You are also getting disagrees because the video you showed is nothing but glitchs and he never showed a full playthrough of that level just the few parts of the level where those glitchs happened with him
and if you read the replies to his video you notice that most of gamers are telling him that they also never had any of that in their playthrough
i also never seen any of that in my 8 playthrough

Let me also add videos showing the **whole level not just few parts of it** where other players are testing the AI on *Survival mode* where it's pretty clear that the AI almost the same as E3 Demo. ...no such thing in TLOU called *Survivor* too BTW.
https://www.youtube.com/wat...
https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[sdcard4gb]

Well, people are wrong if they disagree :) No matter what the video still shows that the game is not this huge masterpiece that is so immune to criticism. Second point is that it's not only about glitches but about how Naughty Dog lied to us with their E3 gameplay "demo" and nobody acknowledges that.

How come there is no such thing as a "Survivor" difficulty when the very first comment under the first video that you gave a link to has this:
"- Wat difficulty is this on
- That's on Survivor."
Also, here - http://thelastofus.wikia.co...
No such thing ? Pleeeeease :)))

[HAHAHAHAHAHAHA]

Uncharted 4 - 2/10 "Not enough zombies."

[joab777]

I give them props actually. With the supernatural elements (from previous Uncharted games) and insane plot twists in TLoU, I thought for sure that Druckman would go overboard with U4. Instead, he did the exact opposite and probably fooled everyone. It was a straight up amazing pirate adventure story that pulled all the story threads together and wrapped them up w a beautiful bow.

They didn't use any tricks and emotional gags. They rested on the strengths of the characters, the story, the visuals etc. And the open nature with stealth was perfect, as it lent itself to the story.

Hats off for just about the most perfect ending to a series I've ever seen.

[asmith2306]

Not all all. I LOVE TLOU; have played it 5 times. But I'm loving the shit out of Uncharted 4 at the moment. It feels like a lot more mature game that manages to hold onto the action adventure vibe. I like that the gunfights are now more situational than the old waves of shooting galleries every time you enter a different area. It feels a lot more natural this time around.

[GTgamer]

Omg Can uncharted Live? Damn everyday Y'all tryna bring down uncharted #yawn

[waltyftm]

TLOU has that effect on a lot of games, never played Uncharted 4, but still play 2 and 3.

[Sweetbrandigirl]

I love UC4 don't get me wrong it's a great game but it's NO TLOU ! TLOU is still the best game EVER made IMO. I also have to agree with some of this guys points. The Stealth in this game was pretty much useless. And it really annoyed me that I couldn't throwback Grenades likewise it Always bugs the shit out of me when you companions can be seen and it doesn't set off anyones alarms. I also was annoyed that after sniping one bad guy without being seen Every bad guy in the area knew where I was and rain down bullets upon me, not realistic at all. It would have made more sense if they heard the shot and began looking for me instead of instantly knowing where I was especially since they didn't see me shoot their fellow bad guy.

I've played through Last of Us twice and I struggled like hell to get very far in Uncharted 1,2 & 3. Too much climbing, too much jumping, boring puzzle solving and average gun play. Last of Us was amazing and the Uncharted series for me is a big borefest..........but hey, like this author, that's just my two bits and to all out there who enjoy the series, cheers to you all.

[Dannylew]

Cambia lavoro maiale ... Spero solo il peggio per uno che scrive di questi articoli merda

[jc12]

I tend to agree with the review. To be completely honest, this isnt a bad article; the author does make some valid points. While I am enjoying UC4, it's nowhere near as good as TLOU. And while UC4 isnt a direct sequel to TLOU, the writer is correct in his assertion that ND set the bar extremely high with TLOU.

The graphics in UC4 are amazing, for sure, as are the characters, voice acting, production values etc. That said, I feel like the gunplay lags a fair bit behind the rest of the package. The shooting feels "off" in my opinion. The guns feel very inaccurate, and at times, enemies feel a bit like bullet sponges. And on top of that, the enemies are deadly - spot on, never miss - accurate. Given the environments are so open, and the enemies sooo aggressive, I found myself constantly getting flanked and pinned down. At times, gun fights felt like more of a chore than pleasure. Never, not once, did I experience these feelings while playing TLOU.

Another problem, there's really no reason or incentive to explore the world like there was in TLOU. Sure, you can pick up little "treasures" here and there, but really, there's little point in doing so. They provide the player no benefit and kind of feel like throw ins.

Either way, UC4 is a very good game. But in my fair opinion, its not a 10/10.

[MainstreamGamer]

That is like saying "Fallout 4 is a disappointment after playing Skyrim". Games from the same studio but trying to accomplish different things.

[PersonMan]

I liked The Last of Us, but it wasn't the most amazing game ever. Uncharted 4 was still an amazing adventure.

Not all games have to be shooting the entire time. I liked the quiet parts and exploration parts just as much as the gun fights.

[Pyrofire95]

Here's the title i was looking for. I've realized that Uncharteds biggest hurdle, on that not even Drake could climb, is Uncharted was first made in 2007 and wouldn't be able to evolve beyond itself while NaughtyDog themselves have grown with TLOU they had no boundaries and made a complete and emotional game, Uncharted tries to take create portray strong emotion as well but also is bound by what it was and has to be. Uncharted is by no means bad and there are parts that I empathize with but through each encounter I didn't feel the same way I did while playing the other installments, perhaps playing a higher difficulty would have felt right.

[theunleashed64]

I find it hysterical that the xbox fanboys here gotta go out of their way to play make believe and pretend they played uncharted 4. goes to show sad and desperate they are.

OT: uh how is it dissapointment? when uncharted 4 is followup to uncharted 3 not the last of us. dats logic for ya! Lmao.

No surprise at all though that these types of article come up after a successful Sony exclusive, dont recall stuff like this after Quantum Break, N4G isn't even trying to be discrete about their biased..

[InTheZoneAC]

Let's see. I played Uncharted 1, then 2, then 3, then The Last of Us, then The Last of Us Remastered, then Uncharted 1 Remastered. At no point did I say man, Uncharted 1 is a disappointment. I still enjoyed it very much. I've only played Uncharted 4 MP, but want to complete Uncharted 2 and 3 remasters before jumping into UC4 campaign. And from what I've seen in UC4 MP, the controls are very smooth and it controls better than the previous entries.

They are all great games and I'm not even sure why an article like this exists...
