The QB comparison seems strange to me. They are both TPS games but that's where the similarities end I would think.
Haven't played QB though on the account of the PC port...

Ludonarative dissonance and inappropriate junior-shaming, lol

No! By acting like that on Twitter I meant, wow, you guys will infer what you want to infer right? I quoted the freaking tweet screencap to make it clear I was talking about the tweet. I'm not mad or anything about his 8.5 review. I do think complaining about "mass murderer" in Uncharted games is a bit silly, but it's his opinion and I respect, I only disagree with that part and him acting like that on Twitter, problem is he's like that on Twitter every time he get a backlash, and I wish he wasn't.
Possibly because they're both system sellers. Exclusives to drive hardware sales.
Look at this thread and look at all the salt. He isn't wrong. At all.
Yes.
All of this! It's crazy talk to expect a reviewer to keep track of all of his/her previous review scores and use that as some sorr of benchmark for future reviews.

I suppose. Remedy games have always struck me as a different type of TPS then the UC games. Ah well.
I have no problem with you quoting his post, i would had too.
The problem is you calling him "junior" without a reason.
Just calm down...

The majority of accounts say that the combat is very, very good, even best-in-class.
I don't understand how anybody can think seriously UC4 is not better than QB.
I enjoyed QB for what it was, but UC4 is far ahead in basically everything it tries to do.
Absolutely not close.
And calling people shitheads because they disagree with an entirely subjective opinion isn't really a smart move, Jim.

I suspect a lot of the Quantum Break bashing comes from people who haven't even played it, given the platforms. Also layer on people who haven't even played UC4 saying it's the better game = people who haven't played either deciding based upon multi trillion dollar corporate loyalty.

Pathetic fanboysism going on in this thread.

Yes because surely people criticising QB must have never owned an Xbox One. That must be the reason.
Do you have anything remotely to back it up or just speculation?
shopto have put a review up.
Its been a long time coming, but thanks to its jaw dropping graphics, storytelling and the performance of the actors, Naughty Dog have taken the bar from its current height and flew it into orbit, with the challenge for other developers now being to reach it. One suspects it'll be a long time before anyone does.
They say good things come to those who wait, but Uncharted 4 isn't just good, it's phenomenal!
Pros
+ Outstanding presentation
+ Some of the best voice acting around
+ Spectacular set pieces
+ Fun multiplayer
+ You'll want to play again
Cons
- It had to end

I find the mass murdering complain in games quite silly, if anything I only know two games that have a tiny problem with this because of their approach: Tomb Raider and Far Cry 3, but the deal last just that second where you think "oh ok, now I'm a trained killer, weird but let's move on" and that's it, is not that you're constantly complaining every time you kill another npc. It's a super ridiculous argument.
What I get from this is that people are stuck in their jobs or school and have nothing else to do but being on internet waiting to get home. I do it all the time and end up saying silly things because of it.

Staying peaceful in a review thread got boring. Sorry.
Sorry, it wasn't really directed at you as much as the entire thread in general which is starting to go down that road.
It was poor communication on my part to you and I apologize.
Enjoy UC4 in 5 days!
That is being a shithead. That's beyond disagreeing. Personal attacks on a reviewer for a score is embarrassing and pathetic.

Try and contribute something different then rather than just trying to poke the beehive? Same goes for anyone slinging off the cuff remarks at the topic.
That's not the people Jim is calling shitheads, but sure

Shit and something about magnets...
Quick, someone with level 10 photoshop skills put ICP makeup on Jim's face.
Humble, he is not.
Take your lumps Jim. Your comment in the review was asinine.

Gamespot video says "may contain spoilers" can someone tell me how bad it is"?
People acting like that in here doesn't mean he also has to act like that everytime something like this happens. That's what I meant by "erasing it with the left hand".

I find it a bit cringe worthy directly calling someone "junior". but that's just me though.
Reminds me of that drama gta thread where a gaf member with the cyborg avatar was told to read the thread and he responded with a paragraph starting with "Listen, JUNIOR i don't give a fuck what other people think! I've been here longer than you don't you ever disrespect me like that again!" and he went on from there.
I wish i could find the hilarious post but had no luck with the search function.
multiplayer twitch stream.
But i think it's important to separate why people in this thread had a problem with his review. Only two or three posts (at least as i remember) were salty because of the score.
The other posters had a problem with his opening paragraphs and the Nathan Drake "mass murderer" narrative. One thing is not directly associated with the other.
Edit: And just like that, thread is going downhill.
TR encounters are like 5-6 dudes usually, Uncharted sometimes had you fighting well over a dozen. Plus Lara is freaking out, while Drake seems unphased. To add to that, the new TRs are M rated so it isn't sanitized "get hit and fall down" violence, which can ironically be more off-putting because death seems more trivial.
I like both games, but I think TR handles this aspect better for the most part.
I'm in bed and I can't fall asleep . Close enough.

At least I see the thread peaceful for 50+ pages. Time to get out this thread. I need to sleep now
Drop the QB shit sons, this is an UC4 review thread. And lay off the personal attacks/elitism...this shit ain't worth it.
I like how QB was not even in the picture before that Jim twitter quote was posted lol.
Now, back to that 8 that edge is gonna give this game now...

You mean the one moment where she cries for two seconds then doesn't give a crap for the rest of the game and starts even taunting the enemies?
Granted, the psychological reprecussions may have been explored in RotTR, but I haven't played that.
Tbh, this whole ludonarrative stuff is just silly to me.

I didn't manage to watch the whole review video but it seems like they show a couple of new locations in their review.
One thing I can't stand is pretending to be above the confrontations you invite.
In regards to his review, I don't mind if he mentions "ludonarrative dissonance" or the "serial killer" argument or whatever you want to call it. But if you are going to dock a game for it, be consistent with all your reviews. Holding a game to higher standards is not something a reviewer should be doing.
Lol yeah, it's over now, it's all downhill from here.
Nah it's ok, QB is a great game.

Definitely not an STD, as I'm a pure.
Hope this thread can get back on track and focus on Uncharted. Not fucking Quantum Break or ROTR.
Sounds like the combat is greatly improved
