I was just in a fight where Nadine and a guy were in melee and I shot the guy and Chloe yelled "Quit it you guys!". Love this game.

Just finished it, I tend to play games quickly. My time was
Also I tried a bit of survival arena with a friend and we couldn't even beat light difficulty. Trying to collect 100 tokens was immensely difficult with just two people but we did it eventually only to give up on wave 3.
We also tried some moderate difficulty with a third random psn person but again it was far too hard. I feel like I must be missing a crucial element because it was that difficult.
7 hours, which seemed slow in comparison to others

Just finished it, and overall it was excellent. After Uc4, though, it can't help but feel a bit less fleshed out and kinda lacking. Also,
I loved Chloe and Nadine, and hope they do get to star in a full Uncharted game. Also thought the addition of
.
I also wasn't totally on board with the open area. It was alright, but I hope it doesn't signal a change to where they're going. I thought it slowed things down and I just don't particularly want that in my Uncharted games. Also with this particular one I think that section was way too early. I kinda felt this game had more pacing problems because of that than Uc4 did.
Oh, the puzzles in this game felt better than other Uncharted games. Less braindead.
Overall, great game. I can't quite see how anyone really rates it above any other Uncharted, though. It was a good ride, but it felt a bit less overall in most ways. Understandable since it was just a $40 game compared to those.
taking a similar final set piece to Uc2 knocked it down a notch or two, too. I get what they were doing with the callback and that's cool, but it did make it feel a bit less substantial comparatively.

Just finished Chapter 4. Spoilers up to that point below.
This is everything i have wanted from an Uncharted game since they announced uncharted 3 with a desert level tease. i have wanted to explore bigger areas, find optional dungeons, puzzles and platforming trials. Chapter 4 has all of this. I loved how i didnt have to look at my diary once. pretty much everything was based around physics and common sense. the platforming trial was simple but naughty dog finally understands what makes a good action adventure game. it's not walking or the auto climbing, it's the action and challenge that makes everything so fun.
i am blown away by the graphics. didnt think horizon could be topped but they might have done it. every chapter looks better than the last. chapter 5 made my jaw drop.
i dont even mind the lack of combat encounters. dont think i fought more than one combat encounter in the last two hours. it doesnt matter because the puzzles were challenging and incorporated action. loved the statue puzzles at the end of chapter 4.
I can tell that this game didnt perform as well as U4, but they cannot stop here. this so called B team of Naughty Dog knows what makes uncharted great more than the A team. give them another shot. maybe two years to make an action packed 10-12 hour game. bring in Sully, Cutter and maybe even Sam.

Just finished and pretty floored by the final setpiece. Overall really enjoyed this. The start was a little slow for me but once it hit Chapter 4, never a dull moment for me. I like this more than Uncharted 4 in a lot of respects even though I didn't find the overall story as engaging. Chloe is great and I'm glad they picked her as the DLC lead.
It comes with Uncharted 4 multiplayer and a new co-op survival mode and unlockable weapons/gameplay/character add-ons.

I'm finding some ( not all) puzzles more difficult than previous Uncharted games. At chapter 5 now.

While the story and spectacle aren't up to Uncharted's mainline standards, the gameplay really does shine.
The way they handled the open world is far superior to anything in UC4, which was essentially all window dressing. Here, there's actual content, and there's density to the open world, too (instead of just being 'open' for the sake of it). Felt like I was actually, finally, on a 'tomb raiding' type excursion, which I never really felt since the first game.
I feel like UC4 could have been a lot better if they retained the great story/production values/ set pieces mixed with around 6 or so 'open world' type areas with multiple objectives to accomplish before moving on.
Hopefully TLOU2 takes this concept and expands on it greatly, because it's a step in the right direction IMO.

You're supposed to use the unlocks or else expect misery.
Seriously? Game came out 2 days ago and you aren't spoiler tagging that shit? Dick move when there is a spoiler thread already.

I just downloaded this game on PSN. When I went into the store, it just said "Download", not Purchase. I clicked the button and it just immediately started downloading. When i checked my email it said I was charged $0.00.
Am I just missing something really obvious here? This game is not supposed to be free is it?

Either I have forgotten how great Horizon looks or Uncharted TLL has dethrone it for best graphics for me. I am incredibly excited what Naughty Dog will do for the Last of Us Part II.

the open world stuff will be really divisive, some people just don't want that element in Uncharted series. even for me I'm mixed about it, I like it, but even I have to admit that I'm spending 3 hours with no story progression and there are times I thought about just move on to the main story. it really hurt the story pacing especially since you can't backtrack in Uncharted games like you can in Tomb Raider reboot.
I'm okay with Lost Legacy since it's only 1 chapter like that. a whole new Uncharted games where there are 5-6 open world hub like that is too much I think.

Lol in Chapter 5:
Jumped in the water just to see if it'd lead to a death or not,
ended up getting a nice little moment and a trophy.

Why? If anything it lends itself more to TLOU's world.
Crushing + all collectables done. Took me about 6 hours, which is about 30 minutes less than my normal play through, which kinda surprised me. Only really one difficult fight towards the end I got stock on though.
I really bloody like this game. Might even be my GOTY now, have to sit on it for awhile.

Is there no way to get the Jak free bonus from this game after launch?
Because open world makes the game lose direction and urgency. While chapter 4 is better than the open world section in Uncharted 4, it's still not amazing content, not by a long shot. The puzzles, combat and climbing is totally fine so far, making the player drive there is completely unnecessary.
The only net positive are the great looking vistas.

In U4 i would have said the same thing but here it' was fantastic imo. It really lends itself to the exploration side of things. especially not having a mini map and having to pull out a paper map to direct yourself.
felt like proper world building.

Yes, i did. I thought it might have been my PS4 dying, good to see i'm not the only one. It actually got better again after 10-15 seconds, but it really had me worried for a while. It was the first time i've seen something like that in a ND game.
Nah, my stats say i killed around 360 enemies in this game. I don't know about U4, but i'm pretty sure i killed around 700-800 enemies per playthrough in the previous ones.
Edit: My estimate was a bit on the high side, this video says the kill counts for U1-U3 are:
U
F - 610U2 - 674
U3 - 545
Not that 360 kills is a small number, but still significantly less than Nate killed in any one of the ND games (although U4 might have an even smaller kill count than U3).
Shiiiiit, the final set piece sequence, best in the series.

I'm with you, jaw dropping graphics in this on several occasions. Couple that with the biggest play areas for the Uncharted series and ND has done some serious witchcraft once again.

I'm still on my first playthrough and I'm on crushing but there's a certain section in Chapter 6 which has been frustrating me for hours now. Is it worth it to lower the difficulty and do crushing in another playthrough, assuming, like previous Uncharted games, there are cheats I can use that won't disable the trophy?
Chapter-based and you can use cheats like UC4.
Yep, can give yourself Unlimited ammo and any weapon and still get trophies.
