Sam's acting/motion capture is SO good.

I really like the Sam character. Troy Baker won me over.

how much longer do I have to go? I don't feel I'm rushing but then again I see people saying they're taking like 18 hours for this game.

You know, Arne hyped up the intro too much. It was disappointing for me. TLoU had a way better opening imo.
Also, the short amount I've played (just got to
) I think ND should have left Sam as a surprise.

Hm. So I'll probably end with a 12 to 15 hour time count. Not bad at all. Great stuff right here.
If I've only seen the story trailer and the E3 previews are there a whole bunch of location surprises and set piece surprises? Yes or no is A+.
Also! The OST is great!

For fucks sake, I've been waiting almost over an hour for the update to finish. I'm considering just bypassing it at this point.

How is my PS4 able to do this?
Dodging/countering hits is done with Triangle
Shit, my iTunes must be acting up. Just searched and didn't get it. See it now though, thanks!

It to the point where I even question if this will look better on pc
No
How the hell this game reconciles Uncharted 3 with Nate being an orphan in Colombia to this, I have no clue.

Yes. Won't elaborate on it too much as it might be a spoilery answer, but I think you'll continue to enjoy a ton of variety.

I finished it in 20 hrs 45mins. I took my time, looked for treasures, and still only found 51 treasures.

One of my most favorite moments in any game.
For those who have beaten the game, as I forget which chapter later on in the game it takes place:
Fucking brilliance.

The quiet jeep ride with Elena after the elevator and the music kicks in...
Fucking brilliance.

Just starting. Ridiculous production values though it's been more fun to watch than to play so far. TLOU did a better job with balancing story and establishing core gameplay early on.
Still early and I am enjoying it but I hope the gameplay spices up!

Yes this was beauty.
Except I fucked it up by
the stupid damn open level design luring me into exploring other paths that had NOTHING and then my jeep getting stuck and the music stopping and the moment getting ruined. Honestly, fuck this open level design shit sometimes. Why would you include it in a clearly scripted, emotional, cinematic moment?

Wait, do you mean that it was so well done that you don't know "how" they did it or you're actually confused?
My favourite chapter.

Man this game is so damn good I think I may have broken my share button today.
When talented programmers get together in R&D and come up with efficient algorithms and then keep it a company secret because it boosts the value of their IPs, you get this.

My gold headset is doing the same thing, I even plugged in a headset into my controller and it was doing the same thing. No clue what it is.

He was never orphaned in Colombia. Uncharted 3 very specifically mentioned that he was orphaned at St Francis Boys Home, which was not in Colombia.
The "plot hole" is how Nate got to Colombia.

Just played for a few hours... this is why I bought a PS4.
Yes but as you pointed out, I'm confused anyway because of the hole lol.

Seeing Nathan in chapter 4
really hit me quite hard.
full of repressed thirst, nostalgia and longing for the thrill of treasure to the extent he gets a kick out of role-playing a shootout with a toy gun
Finished the game in 13 hours. I think this is my favourite Uncharted game. It's up there anyways. I have the same feeling I did when I played 2.
First up the story. This is the best constructed story in the series so far. The slower burn at the start really helps with that. I don't know how it'll how up on second playthroughs but y'know, I don't judge a story on that anyways. It really nails the personal moments so much better than 3 did. The villains are actually properly developed too, something which every Uncharted game before this failed to do.
The balance between platforming and gunplay this time actually felt much more weighted towards platforming, which I prefer after having spent so many games just murdering swathes of enemies.
That isn't to say what gunplay there is isn't good. Oh no, the battles are great. I love that there is an increased focused on stealth in the midgame, and that enemies can actually lose track of you again unlike the previous games. I can also see this game becoming incredibly hard on crushing mode as some of those battles near the end are unable to be stealthed, which I'm dreading/looking forward to doing again.
Also this is up there with best looking games ever made. I can't believe how Naughty Dog pulled this off on a PS4 of all things. I'm sure other devs would love to see how it works too because it seems like wizardry.

Funny, when that booted up and I realised what was going on I kept thinking fuck wouldn't that be sweet if I could play it....
So damn good.
This game. Loving it.
Had to put it down to make dinner but I'm gonna be up late tonight. Work is going to suck in the morning.
Just hit chapter 9.
