Uncharted 4's Story DLC Is a Great Addition to the Series

MT : Fans should be excited for the great opportunity it brings

[Maltaze]

I think UC4 has potential when it comes to single player DLC despite the first time it is happening for the Uncharted series. It could also be an essential benchmark for the industry in the near future much like the main game will be.

[-Foxtrot]

I think it would be a wonderful idea to fill in small gaps in past Uncharted games as it would allow us to play other characters and let them re-create moments in Drakes Fortune, Among Thieves and Drakes Deception with Uncharted 4s graphics/tech...imagine seeing a section of Drakes Fortune done up for the PS4

One Sully DLC - From Drakes Fortune or Drakes Deception

One Elena DLC - From Drakes Fortune or Among Thieves

One Chloe DLC - From Among Thieves or Drakes Deception (if Drakes Deception it could feature Cutter)

[DigitalRaptor]

Can't see that happening.

It's more likely to be a young Nathan/Sam flashback, depending on how much of that is explored in the main game. I think an Elena story would be fantastic though.

[-Foxtrot]

Judging by the trailers and everything we've seen so far I don't want more Sam...I'm sorry but I don't

I want the three main characters and maybe Chloe/Cutter to get some story DLC which focuses on them and gives them a little bit more backstory.

Elena and Sully especially.

Elena after she helps Drake get onto the train in Among Thieves, how she escapes the enemies behind her and finds Schäfer in the village.

Sully either when Drake drinks the water in Drakes Deception and goes crazy thinking Sully is dead or in Drakes Fortune in one of the times he splits up with Drake near the end of the game.

[jb227]

I would definitely love the dlc to utilize those characters, but I'd rather have it be an entirely new story. It lowers the stakes quite a bit because we know where all of those sections end, and in all honesty they'd have to be pretty inconsequential happenings as they went unmentioned. I know you said you'd regard Marlowe not mentioning Sam's existence as a plot hole, but setting dlc in these gaps would essentially create a plot hole of their own going by that logic, because if something of merit happened in those gaps, why wouldn't those characters mention it when they got back to Drake?

I'd prefer to see something like Elena on assignment somewhere focusing on stealth & melee and instead of a gun shed have a camcorder to document things. It'd focus in heavy on exploration & narrative and have the potential to showcase more of those great new environments that ND are so great at. It'd also be cool to see the adventures of young Sully, maybe meeting Marlowe for the first time, or if they wanted to stick to the Uc4 narrative, maybe meeting Nadine. In that instance he'd be an older man and they could make him less agile & slower than Nate. Whatever they do with it, narrative, art & environments are NDs specialty & Id personally like to see them given the opportunity to create more in that field as opposed to reusing or sprucing up existing assets & filling in potentially inconsequential gaps in narrative threads. I dug your idea about playing as Elena during her marriage w/ Nate though, that has some good potential if it went wrong somewhere & goons showed up or if they used it as a framing device to tell a series of flashbacks to earlier adventures

[-Foxtrot]

@JB227

I think having the characters get out of a little trouble is better then having a brother never mentioned before just pop up out of nowhere.

Like in Drakes Fortune when you go into the catacombs and Sully is locked out. The next time you see him is him outside the Church pinned down.

Yeah it might lower the stakes but it's not like Drake isn't going to know what happened. Drake comes into it and see's how much Sully is in trouble.

As for Elena well like Drake has said she can handle herself. Plus after being shot and survivng a train rolling down a cliff only to then pass out in the snow I highly doubt Elena is going to ramble on about what she had to go through to get to the village. She probably told him after the main game...so it's not really a plot hole when we know how it happened and we can easily pretend the characters knew because like Sully's "scenario" we came into the end of it outside the Church.

The way I see it for Elena

The Jeep breaks down, the enemies are coming up close, she heads into the forest and the enemies are spreading out looking for her. The stealth mechanics are used here as you sneak around them, using distractions and stealth attacks. Not brutal attacks since that's not her but maybe pushing one off a cliff or a non lethal one where she just knocks him out...hell what about trapping an enemy somewhere like in a room or the back of a van.

Sully would be more into fire fights but he'd be slower and wouldn't be able to climb most places like Drake. This would require you to plan out your battles and try to utilize the cover mechanic.

"I dug your idea about playing as Elena during her marriage w/ Nate though, that has some good potential if it went wrong somewhere & goons showed up or if they used it as a framing device to tell a series of flashbacks to earlier adventures"

I tried not to say this anymore since people just automatically assumed I just wanted to watch some cheesy lovey dovey wedding when that's not what I was getting at.

It's Nathan Drake...nothing goes as planned.

Way I see, some people he's screwed over crash the ceremony and blast the place to pieces. Everything is going well, people look smart, Elena in her wedding dress then BAM, enemies kick the door down, "DRAKE" and goons start shooting the place up. Sully, Chloe and Cutter (this would explain how Elena and Cutter know each other) would hold them off.

This would show Elena at the point where she wants him to promise not to go on any more adventures or do anything...which would then show you how in Uncharted 3 they are not together. Maybe at the end Sully says something like "I've got a job coming up, you in?" with Drake saying yes despite him promising Elena.

[Bnet343]

I'll never be excited for paid DLC before the game come out for any game. Uncharted is no exception.

[DigitalRaptor]

I'm not sure what to think if you want Chloe and Cutter deserve backstory in DLC. Especially Cutter. I know some people like him but to me he was only decent, and an almost forgettable character, and one of the worst in the series.

Even Sam appears to be a better, more interesting character with his dynamic as the long lost brother and disruptor of Nate's newly settled married life, and his involvement in the story means that there's going to be focus on making him a likeable character. It makes sense to me that Nate never mentioned Sam to anyone because he was (in his mind) a literal skeleton from his past (thought of as dead, felt guilty about leaving him). Sam, to me anyway, grabs far more interest than seeing more of Chloe and Cutter. We're already going to have Sully and Elena receive a strong focus in the story of Uncharted 4, too.

And I know you're hopeful, but they're not gonna do DLC stories going back to the previous games. It makes no sense - Naughty Dog are always moving forward. Whatever they choose to go with, they're going to make it worthwhile and if Left Behind is any indication, they know exactly what they're doing with side-stories. We're never going to get exactly what we desire, but it's cool to imagine!

[Errorist76]

If used right it indeed can be a wonderful thing. Just remember the Left Behind DLC TLOU had.

[fattyuk]

*Left behind was actually a fantastic piece of dlc and was very refreshing compared to the usual trash that is dlc!

[ultimatetruth]

Great, Microtransactions in addition to a season pass. Naughty Dogs greed knows no bounds.

[Maltaze]

At least understand what DLC means before you make a comment. By that logic expansions should not even exist.

[Utalkin2me]

Ummm ND is one of the few companies that dont gouge people for DLC. They always have made it cheap and reasonable. And im sure the story DLC will be priced fairly.

[ifistbrowni]

ugh, Uncharted 3 and TLOU both did a bit of price gouging.

I, luckily, got the Season pass for TLOU at launch ($20). But, they soon got rid of the season pass and all the content had to be bought individually (while still honoring season pass holders). I'd estimate the content outside of the season pass was "valued" at $60+

Additionally, TLOU (PS3) added perks and weapons that weren't part of the season pass that had to be purchased individually or in bundles (4-5 perks or $8). Individually, the perks ranged from $.99 - $1.99. The weapons are lost on me. I feel like they were $3 at least (and they completely screwed with the balance of the game).

Which, finally, bring me to TLOU Remastered. The "complete" edition, one would think. I dare you to sign into The Last of Us multiplayer and log into the store. After that, I want you to honestly come back and defend your "Naughty Dog is cheap and reasonable." Weapons and perks mess with in-game balance. A bow that shoots you once and you continuously bleed out until you heal is something everyone or no one should have access to.

My friends and I all quit playing TLOU Remastered b/c we felt like it was getting out of hand and we didn't feel like spending money just to create classes to combat the DLC classes we were up against. I think the lowest level out of the 4 of my friends was like level 96. My brother and I were about 130. I think we'd still play it to this day if it wasn't for the DLC that pushed us away.

I'm a huge advocate of TLOU and Naughty Dog in general but even I can't defend their DLC practices (when it comes to multiplayer). They get away with it because they make great games, but that shouldn't be an excuse.

[sAVAge_bEaST]

^^^

I agree with the above statement. Micro's in the Multi,,. kind of broke it.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

@ifistbrowni

I fully agree with everything except I still do pretty good with my Vanilla weapons, so I still haven't quit the MP.

I think the comment you replied is refering to DLC not MTs, which he is right. Left Behind DLC was cheap. Uncharted 3 didn't have story DLC. I think ND has been experimenting with MTs long enough already since U3, and our feedback can change that

[Utalkin2me]

Im talking DLC not MTA....Maybe you guys should read before typing a 5 page paragraph.

[TwoForce]

So tell me this. Do we have any linear single player dlc in the past ? Especially the linear game like The Last of Us have Single Player DLC which is a good one.

[MasterCornholio]

You mean Left Behind?

That was some good DLC. A great look into the origins of the girls infection. I bought the remaster but I could see that the DLC was worth it.

[TwoForce]

@MasterCornholio Yes, it was great DLC.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

You mean like every game developer ever and yet you make it sound like they are the only one... Your Hypocrisy meets no bounds

[Dark_Crow]

Have people forgotten the last of us Dlc.
This wouldn't be the first time.

[ijx092]

Great addition to the "series".

[mike32UK]

I totally forgot about this. I'll definitely get it, some devs just deserve our trust... ND are one of them and with the way dying light was handled so now are Techland

[NotanotherReboot]

Have you seen the microtransactions in The Last of us..lol

[TwoForce]

Well, yes it true. But can you see how many from other games have this ? Not Just ND, but other developers have it too. I don't like Microtransaction and I don't like Season Pass. But for Single Player DLC that i will buy. I agree with you some points, but when you criticize way too much from one side, you will let other get away. That why i see some problems of criticism.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

Yes and I haven't bough a single one. Now the Story DLC was awesome and worth every penny

[jb227]

They are two entirely different things from two entirely different teams under one umbrella. Would you also say that The Division is bound to be a horrible broken mess because AC Unity was? I think it's better to look at direct relative history. I can't speak on the mt's for TLOU mp because I never played it, but I'll assume what you are saying in that regard is true...doesn't change the fact that the only other sp dlc ND has put out was an absolutely phenomenal additive experience for myself & many others, w/ every bit of the same quality put into the main game, it wasn't a carved off piece of storyline, it wasn't developed until after the main game was shipped, it was offered as a standalone purchase, it created all new assets & environments instead of reusing others from the base game and it introduced an entirely new gameplay mechanic in pitting infected against hunters...that ticks pretty much every imaginable box for quality sp dlc done right. Seems to me that if we are solely talking about the potential quality of UC4 sp dlc, we would look at the only direct example available, not go across to an entirely different type of gaming entirely when judging that potential quality.

Long story short I personally think UC4 is on track to get some amazing & worthwhile sp dlc, and I personally can't wait to hear more about it. Personally uninterested in any kind of mp & it's dlc even though I had fun w/ the beta, either way it's an entirely different story.

[Crummybear]

I want to play as Sully. I now this is the last Uncharted, but I want a game where you play as Sully treasure hunting in the 60s.

[Skankinruby]

That's actually an awesome idea, like a flash back episode leading up to the day he met Drake.

[Scrivlar]

Haha I'm quite happy with this but love the fact most other games get rinsed for this but Naughty Dog can't be criticised.

[T2X]

Never understood people bitching about everything before anything even happens.

[Thatguy-310]

Entitlement man. It's quite annoying. To top it of you would expect them to know what they're talking about but some people even get DLC and microtransactions confused -_- they simply complain to complain.

[Tobsesan]

If its is worth the pirce, I cant see why not. People love GOOD DLC and i think they will deliver 100%

[Monduu]

screw dlc, im skipping next gen because of it. I refuse to buy into incomplete overprice products.

[Skankinruby]

Story dlc when done right is worth every penny. Tlou left behind is a prime example, deep passionate expansions to an already amazing story. Not just nonsense like multiplayer map packs or some other cash grab. I'll gladly spend my money on story dlc.

[Rookie_Monster]

What? There are paid single player DLC? This has never happened to a Uncharted game before so I would have had expected all content will be included. This seems like money grabbing scheme from Sony and ND. A bit disappointed with this news. But whatever, still getting the main game at launch and if the DLC is good, I'll get it too.

Wonder if there will be any backlash to this like other games like FO4? I did enjoy both The last TLOU and ROTTR DLC though so hopefully this will be price correctly. Looking forward to it.

[TwoForce]

Ok, that I agree. Left behind was great dlc.

[Thatguy-310]

What other games? RotTR received story DLC 2 months after release and not a single complain was made. In fact these story DLC's aren't part of the main story so I don't understand why the game is suddenly incomplete because of it. It's a separate story arc so why would they give it out for free on top of the game you buy? I swear many people think that only because you pay 60$ you should be entitled to everything that releases under the name of the game you buy for free.

[DragonDDark]

So it's not okay if it's Uncharted.

But okay if it's Tomb raider or witcher, right?

[TripleCs]

Although I don't agree with him calling it a money grabbing scheme and I'm not trying to defend him but surprisingly he did in fact complain about the ROTR DLC.. http://n4g.com/news/1831089...

[jb227]

Why would there be backlash? I've never seen anyone complain about story dlc done right, it's when devs reuse assets from the base game & release story dlc a month or two from launch that was obviously ready to ship w/ the base game or rushed and short that people rightfully complain. You obviously haven't kept up w/ NDs history for these things and I find it funny that in another thread you called yourself "Naughty Dog's Biggest Fan" & yet you haven't seemed to play the Left Behind story dlc for TLOU, which didn't begin development until after the main game shipped, wasn't released until nearly a full year later, only served to flesh out the story instead of carve anything from it, and was released as a standalone experience for those who didn't have the base game. Free MP dlc & cosmetic items is quite a bit different from story dlc....story dlc costs money if it is created from the ground up like Left Behind was w/ new environments, entirely new combat mechanics, new mo cap sessions & vo work from new & existing actors & new stories written from scratch, mp dlc rarely ever amounts to more than handing over access to maps that are already in the base game, or color swapping skins or decals.

[DigitalRaptor]

Good god.

Is this guy serious? Embarrassing complaint. Things are cut due to delivery constraints, but what Naughty Dog has always done with story DLC, is build something from scratch based on what was left as ideas on the cutting room floor - and it seems like you are completely oblivious to the fantastic single player DLC of The Last of Us that nobody bothered complaining about because it was amazing and good value for money. I'm unsure myself, but what other games received backlash for offering single player story DLC? Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon... fantastic. BioShock Infinite: Burial At Sea... worth a go. What "other games"?

@jb227 - got him there dude.

[TripleCs]

I definitely wouldn't call this a "money grabbing scheme".. The DLC will be a side story as you and others have pointed out. Not only that, the DLC won't even be finished when the game comes out. It will be post launch DLC as and arrive months after the game ships so I don't really understand why Rookie is complaining. He certainly wasn't complaining when the ROTR DLC was announced and had no issues with the ROTR post launch content. Behold dat hypocrisy tho! http://n4g.com/news/1831089... http://n4g.com/news/1856983...

It's pretty sad that some of these guys are in such a rush and so desperate to bash Sony or anything PlayStation related that they are even willing to contradict themselves in the process without even realizing it lol

[TripleCs]

My mistake Rookie actually did complain about the ROTR DLC http://n4g.com/news/1831089... Holy crap. He Isn't being as much of a hypocrite as I originally thought but I still don't understand how this is a "money grabbing scheme".

[OB1Biker]

'What? There are paid single player DLC?'
That s been known for months.
'This seems like money grabbing scheme from Sony and ND.'
And you wonder why people think your trolling? I dont know many games that dont have DLC nowadays.

[ziggurcat]

Yes, Rookie, there's SP DLC. It's been known for a long time. If you look at the details of the Deluxe Edition in the PS store, it says:

"The Digital Deluxe Edition includes:
- Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
- Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Triple Pack: Includes future access to three pieces of content: the first ever single-player story add-on for the Uncharted series and two multiplayer packs that will unlock new multiplayer content
- Instant unlock to two multiplayer character items"

There has never been any backlash towards any SP DLC content in any game. Ever. No one ever complained about Left Behind, First Light, any of the R* SP DLC, the Witcher 3's DLC, Alan Wake's story DLC, Bioshock's story DLC, Assassin's Creed's story DLC, or any other story-related add-on content. The complaints about Fallout 4's DLC you are referencing were because there wasn't nearly as much story add-on content as Fallout 3, and the fact that they are planning to raise the price of the season pass.

[Germany7]

" This seems like money grabbing scheme from Sony and ND."

And that's why people don't take you seriously, like always pushing your agenda on Sony articles with your trollish comments.

Any gamer knows about single-player dlcs for games like Red Dead Redemption, GTA IV, Fallout: New Vegas, Skyrim and Bioshock Infinite.

What about Halo 3: ODST, an expensive and short game.

[DigitalRaptor]

Teehee.

I like how you sneakily edited your comment, after reading the responses but didn't bother to reply to anyone saying thank you for the correction we supplied you. Your intent was to troll here of course, but since you were overwhelmed by common sense that directly conflicted with what you said, you had no choice but change its contents.

In addition, why didn't you remove the "this seems like a money grabbing scheme" bit though, since it's clearly not - and past single player story DLC proves that it's not any kind of scheme other than to provide players with post-release content. And what other games other than Fallout 4 received backlash, for reasons not extremely specific to Fallout 4 in relation to its predecessor? You might as well have removed that part of your comment too, since why on Earth would there be a backlash specifically for Uncharted 4 single player DLC? Just why would anyone think of that, other than to explain their enjoyment in anticipating controversy?

[Rookie_Monster]

I have no clue what you are talking about. Another day, another fake accusation. smh

[ziggurcat]

@Rookie:

What do you mean you have no clue? I think you know full well what he's talking about. Are you denying that you've edited your comment even though it's clearly indicated that it was 4 - 5 hours after it was originally posted? Your original post was:

"What? There are paid single player DLC? It should all be included. This seems like money grabbing scheme from Sony and ND. A bit disappointed with this news. But whatever, still getting the main game at launch.

Wonder if there will be any backlash to this like other games?"

You complained about the DLC, called it a ND/Sony "money grab", then you implied that this was probably going to get a "free pass" compared to other games - likely in some silly attempt to accuse everyone here of being biased just because it's ND/a Sony exclusive. The fact is that there's zero history of any game receiving backlash over single player story content, nor does ND have any history of cutting single player content out of their games to be sold as DLC later on. You edited the comment when it was clear that you weren't going to get the support you expected. You softened, "It should be all included" to "This has never happened to a Uncharted game before so I would have had expected all content will be included", added that you might get the DLC if it's priced right (even though I can pretty much predict right now that you're going to complain about the price no matter what), and tried to use Fallout 4 as an example of a game that received backlash even though it was clearly not because single player content was planned. The complaints about fallout 4 were largely due to the lack of single player content compared to its predecessor, the DLC being mostly focused on crafting materials for settlements, etc... and the increase in the season pass price.

[TwoForce]

I have no clue what wrong with you. That's why people don't take you seriously.Typical

[Outside_ofthe_Box]

Should have never edited your post.

You pretty much just proved that all of your posts aren't genuine now.

[ShadowKnight]

@Rookie Lol you edited your comment lmao. Sometimes that edit button comes in handy huh :)

[Angerfist]

Where is your regular outcry over this? With a franchise like this, which allegedly has its final game with part 4, it sends the wrong signal to announce single player dlc before release. Cause now I would wait for a final edition as I did with all the Batman Games last gen.

It's predictable that such a version will show up later.

[ShadowKnight]

I'm sure this will happen in the last of us 2. When left behind dlc came out nobody didn't even complain about that because that was a great DLC lol.

[Thatguy-310]

It's not whether it's good or bad. The dlc has a completely different story arc and isn't needed to enjoy or understand the main game. Why would anyone complain?

[ShadowKnight]

Sounds like everyone wants the DLC to be free. I don't care if it's free or not. I just wanna play the game now

[Angerfist]

I'm not saying it should be free. I think it just sends a wrong signal. They should have waited a month after the release to announce DLC. Some people will just think what I said, "It's cut content, I wait for a sale or complete edition"

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

The edgy people of the internet will still complain so devs know they shouldn't pay attention to them. I doubt they have started development of that DLC anyways. I rather have them release the game and focus on that later than take more time to include it. I've waited long enough already. If this DLC is as good as Left Behind, then I'm giving ND my money! They deserve it

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

Excuse me?

Left Behind
Baba Yaga
Bioshock Infinine story DLCs

What outcry?

[jb227]

Well some people are entitled and they haven't bothered to find out the entire story or look at the whole picture with an open mind. Look at it this way, if they wait until after the game ships out of some kind of weird principle, then people would be even more rightfully upset to ask why we should buy a season pass w/o knowing what content will be included? I personally think it's a lot more justifiable to take a company to task over trying to sell a product sight unseen w/o outlining what it will entail than it is to simply announce intentions to extend the narrative in some additive way in the future. They haven't even begun work on the sp dlc & they won't until after UC4 ships, and we most likely won't even see it until December at the earliest if the schedule from TLOU is anything to go by.

If I'm in a band & I go to the studio to cut an album and in the process of recording I write new material & announce another new record coming soon behind the next one, no one would complain at all, they'd just be interested to hear more new work. This kind of thing happens all the time in music & films, Hell Zack Snyder announced Justice League while he was working on BvS, should you deserve a ticket to both films in that instance? Or since BvS won't be "the full package" should you wait until the entire series is released in a box set? Not trying to pick at you personally because I know you are just playing devils advocate but there are so many worthwhile issues to talk about in regards to gaming, but this is absolutely not one of them. I could understand if ND was guilty of carving sections of game out to sell back to consumers a month after launch, but they have never done anything like that in regards to sp so it is a moot point.

[Free_Fro]

I'm cool with this..

More single player content. .I could never say no to that.

I'm usually not a fan of all this DLC season pass stuff but this is the last Uncharted.

I might just go all out.

[goldwyncq]

I hope we get to see more of Nate and Sam's adventures when they were younger.

[Condemnedman]

how do you know it's a great addition, have you played it? what a poor story

[sk8ofmnd]

Reguardless of any negative thing that could said about naughty dog, their talent, inspiration, and mark on the industry cant be denied. This game is going to mark their best effort yet and they deserve whatever credit that comes their way. I cant wait to play this masterpiece, as i know many others as well. For this game and this game alone... I will finally renew my ps+ account. Like holy sh!t guys the ammount of ps4s alone that will be sold when this game drops will be of epic proportions!

[Tankbusta40]

I disagree that this is good, uncharted stories are hardly long and this should be part of the original game... But that's life these days

[seppo91]

Should it?
If the dlc is you playing as, for an example, chloe - set 5years before U4, how could that possibly be relevant to the main plot of U4?

That, and it would mean another delay so they can develop the dlc.

[Tankbusta40]

Yes it should be. People who disagree are just fan boys... I doubt uncharted 4 will even be 10 hours long. I am sorry they should put more into the game before worrying about story Dlc.. But as I said that's the time we live in and why I never buy Uncharted day one... When you can beat a game in a weekend it's never worth full price no matter how cool it is. Hence why I think instead of story Dlc they should work more towards making the game a tad bit longer...

I shall accept my down votes as people act like they are employees of Sony or Microsoft when anyone say anything remotely negative about an exclusive game... It's so funny and so sad St the same time..I don't mind multi-player Dlc as it has replay ability...however unless the game is open world these days single player Dlc is also short and rather pathetic and seem like cash grabs

[TwoForce]

Then tell me about this ? Left Behind was excellent dlc.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

Uncharted 4 has multiplayer so it will take you more than a weekend to enjoy it. But let me guess, you don't play multiplayer for whatever reason... Your problem! the value is already there. Take it or leave it

I disagree with you and call me what you want... Uncharted campaigns are long enough as they are. Quality > Quantity and fun multiplayer. Nkw story DLC that will add couple of hrs more. Worth every penny!!

Quantity for the sake of value... How did that work out for Alien Isolation? Think about it!

[jay2]

No. I don't want to keep ****ing paying for extra content! i want 'the story' not paying for it 3/4 times. u want to give a story give it to me!

[Big_Game_Hunters]

Saving this entire comment section, it will come in handy later.

Would've come in handy when XCX DLC was announced.

[seppo91]

Looking forward to it. The main game will keep me occupied until later this year hopefully.

[DivineAssault]

Single player DLC is always welcome.. As long as its worked on AFTER the main title is completed..

[toddybad]

No, won't be buying this.
If it's part of the story of uncharted it should have been in the games from the off.
Just because it's ND doesn't mean they should get a pass.
It's our fault DLC is so prevalent as we keep buying them.
I hate this concept of 'content' as if a game is just a shell or a service and anything that happens within that world can then be broken up and sold separately.

[TwoForce]

Remember, Left Behind was an excellent single player DLC. I don't like MP DLC and season pass. Bloodborne is another example for having an excellent expansion pack. The only i like dlc is single player dlc which doesn't need to be in the main game. It just need to be arc story. One question, do linear game have story dlc in the past ? Bioshock Infinite and The Last of Us have excellent Story DLC.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

They could have easily give us nothing post release like they've done with previous Uncharted, and you are telling them this DLC should be in the game? Even if they haven't started development of it... Really?

[ArnoDorian]

DLC? No just no, let that business practice just die already, along with MTs, and Season Passes

[Germany7]

Some obvious trolls here complaining as usual, what's the problem with a single-player dlc?

Games like Red Dead Redemption, GTA IV and Bioshock Infinite also received great story dlcs.

[Kallisti]

While story DLC for Uncharted 4 has the potential to be good, I wouldn't call it a "great addition to the series" until I've tried it myself. Counting your eggs before they've hatched and all.

[Booyaka619]

Will be best DLC of 2016, so definitely will be buying it.

[TROLLER123]

telltales uncharted, can see it now

[TwoForce]

Ah no, did you just see Uncharted 4 Story trailer ? It's not episodic. Look at Left Behind, that dlc wasn't episodic. It was much more stand alone dlc.
