Just finished. Definitely right behind Uncharted 2 as my favorite of the series. It brought back that action movie intensity the 4th game was lacking and cut all the over-plotting bullshit out that brought down 3 and 4. Might be my favorite ending of any Uncharted game. Loved the credits as well with the
haha.
Pixar-ized versions of the characters,

I loved the little touches that add to the relationship like Nadine yelling Chloe's last name when she dies for the first half of the game and then using her first name towards the end.

I don't know that it's technically above Uncharted 4 (outside of an improvement to motion blur, perhaps?), but it certainly has an art direction that's lends itself better to the visuals. The exploration of Hindu mythology in India allowed for the use of beautiful visages in their structures and a vibrant, pleasing color palette in its locales.

That final stretch was pitch perfect.
This has to lead to more uncharted with these characters and the approaches to each aspect of the game. It addresses all my problems with UC4, to the letter. Even made me appreciate parts of 4 more.
The end credits are indisputably the best of the series

A company being excited for their new game is a huge slap in the face to all the fans that liked their old games.

You're probably right. I just think that it may look a bit cleaner. Either way, it's a looker and the art direction and source material are fantastic.

They had this in 3; if you took too long, a prompt would show to have Sully do it for you. This happened to me in the Chateau in France (Chapter 5 I believe) with the checkerboard puzzle on the far wall with the animal symbols.

Fuck me, had to drag myself away from this last night, it has overtaken BotW in my GOTY so far. Just got the part with t
, gonna finish it in a straight shot tonight, roughly how long will that take on standard difficulty?
About the shadow puzzle, it took me about 10 mins, the rotation puzzle a little later was far more irritating IMO. I was always terrible at those in Assassins Creed 2 as well, must just be how my brain was wired.

About 30-45 minutes from that point depending on how much you die I guess.

Fuck, I thought it would be way more than that. I'm still on Chapter 8 I think.
Yeah well the fight you mentioned in your spoiler is basically chapter 8 and then there is one more after that. Let's say 1 hour being generous.

Wasn't it because after how Nathan and Sam took down Rafe, Shoreline was ripped out from under her? Orca was the one who was in control of it now and Nadine wanted it back? It's been a few days since I paid attention to the story in TLL but I think that's how it went down and why she has a grudge on them?
I hope Naughty Dog fixes it. Rise of the Tomb Raider had glitchy trophies and they fixed them via a plat, but didn't include a retroactive unlock so I have a trophy for 100% completion of side objectives and no trophy for completing all challenges (which is needed for 100%) lmao :'(

Really glad to see the love this game is getting in this thread. It is absolutely outstanding.
So many of those awe-inspiring "wow" moments that are the reason I play video games.

Didn't know you could climb up the whole tower.
You can climb out trough on of the open windows/doors (you can recognise the one as it has a crack in it which Chloë can latch onto. From there it is a short climb up to great photo mode opportunities
You get a trophy for it.

In the trailer there was a scene with
Wonderful game, though. ND never ceases to impress. I want more Chloe/Nadine!
Nadine & Chloe fighting each other in a helicopter, but that never happened in the game. Cut content or a trick to make people think there might be more violent conflict between the two?

Can you link the trailer?
I think Nadine climbed up with me once using her own rope but I can't remember if she made it into the Helicopter
It doesn't reset anything. I have the Plat. You can easily check if it resets anything by checking your Treasures list or the Stats screen. Anytime you pick a new Chapter, it just wants to make a hard save. Just overwrite the old one or make a new one. Like I said, it doesn't matter.
Sounds like the guy you quoted was reloading an old manual save which reverts back to anything he collected in that old save.
I personally used chapter select

When you jump into a new chapter and either save over the old file or make a new one, next time you jump into a new chapter that comes after the one you first went to, does it say "0 out of 5 treasures" or say "4 out of 5 treasures"? Because the problem here is going into a chapter resets the treasure counter in chapter select and makes all the treasures available for collecting. If this is what's suppose to happen then sure, but it certainly doesn't seem right.
Except it keeps the info for photos, conversations and whatnot. Only treasures gets reset, no matter what save I choose.
Must be a bug because my treasures never resetted. I looked at what I collected and the progress was kept. I couldn't even recollect the old treasures I collected before. They don't respawn.

This is what myself and the other user have been talking about. It's very clearly a bug and it's very frustrating considering it's hard to keep track of collecting treasures and if it will reset if we accidentally miss one and check other chapters, even if we follow a guide (it's easy to accidentally scroll past one and not realise sometimes).
I'm not sure if update 1.03 fixes it because I can't download the patch until mid-September, but hopefully the fix is in there.
Yea, that's a bummer. I suggest once you collected all treasures in a chapter and you decide to jump into another chapter, just overwrite the old save and see if it keeps it.

Nadine is almost too good at wrecking fools lol. She makes the fights go by so quickly.

Anyone know if the stealth takedown trophy includes the silent pistol, or if it's just melee stealth take downs?
Edit: evidently not. Shame! It's still technically stealth

That scene definitely happened in the final game, but under a different context thanks to the magic of editting!

Gifs are making Nadine and Chloe look OP as fuck, I love it. Nate and Sully starting to look incompetent by comparison.

I can't remember. Is this a scripted segment or it this a random animation during a fistfight?
Nate would have had his ass handed to him by Asav if even nadine couldn't touch him on her own, and she manhandled nate.
Well, Nate and Sully are everyday-guys/conmen/thiefs who only learned fighting by brawling criminals in prison or in the field, while Nadine has been trained since birth to by her father to eventually take over his mercenary company. Not that weird that her fightstyle is more technical and competent looking than their barfight and wrestling antics lol

Ok...now explain why Chloe is so good at kicking ass.
Neither, play on normal instead. I loved this game on normal, but I honestly don't know if I've ever played a game where once great mechanics and design started to completely fall apart on a higher difficulty level. Many games have problems which are exacerbated on a higher difficulty level, but Uncharted: TLL's Crushing difficulty creates problems that weren't present on lower difficulties.
Chief among these problems is the inability to mark enemies (something you can do on Normal). This is an issue because the environments are incredibly detailed and sense with things like foliage, which you can't see through... but your enemies can. Additionally, enemies have about 10x the awareness of lower difficulties, and can spot across the map while giving you about half a second to get out of sight. When your enemies can so effortlessly spot you, when it's incredibly difficult for you to spot them, and when they become aimbots with 100% perfect accuracy, it's all really just a recipe for extreme frustration and many cheap deaths. Literally having the ability to mark enemies would make Crushing less than half as challenging and far more fair of an experience than it currently is, IMO.
Finally, there are a couple of "boss" encounters that are incredibly frustrating and downright tedious on Crushing . Essentially, these encounters rely on stealth, but stealth is broken and near impossible on Crushing, so you basically have to resort to cheap strats and cheese the encounters, or else spend hours pulling your hair out like I did (anyone who's played this game on Crushing should know which encounters I'm referring to, and how poorly designed/balanced they are for Crushing). I refused to do because of my stubbornness, but trust me when I say that the best Crushing experience you can have is cheesing every encounter with an infinite rocket launcher (which the devs allow you to do because even they know screwed up).
TL
R, don't play on Crushing. Just don't do it. It is complete BS, and even the devs know it, hence why they let you cheat and still get a trophy. I love this game, but Crushing difficulty sucks ass. Hard may provide a better experience due to still allowing you to mark enemies, although I really do get the impression that the only difficulty ND balanced this game for was Normal. Crushing is where everything just falls apart, sadly.Complete the game and buy it with the points you got.
Beat the game, and you can purchase different costumes with points (you get these by finding treasures and other collectibles). The costumes what have different hairstyles for Nadine.
