    Good graphics, smooth controls, fun puzzles, and okay stories. However, the whole game dries out quickly after several chapters. Sure, climbing and sliding feel extremely fun at the beginning, but it gets tedious really fast. At some point of the game, I felt so underwhelmed that I almost gave up on the game because I don't want to climb over a freaking hill to progress the story line.

    This game disappointed me. Compared to the other Uncharted games, this seemed to have less puzzles and more focus on shooting, but without doing anything to improve or vary the rather poor shooting experience from the previous games.

Compared to the other Uncharted games, this seemed to have less puzzles and more focus on shooting, but without doing anything to improve or vary the rather poor shooting experience from the previous games. Also, there was less environment variation - most of it felt like slightly different types of jungle. Uncharted 3 had a desert, an airplane, a sinking ship, some icy mountain, a french ruin... and yeah, jungle. This game left me feeling like I had been treading the same jungle five times, doing the same moves and autoclimbing up the same rockfaces over and over again to look at different nice views. What comes after this pirate-y jungle, you think? Oh my, it's a slightly flooded pirate-y jungle...

    The story featured overly long cutscenes, mostly with Nate being annoying and boring and trying to talk everyone out of adventuring (WTF?!? I *want* to go adventuring, that's why I bought the game... so why am I stuck with a main character who whines about giving up and going home every chance he gets?)

    There was no sense of accomplishment, and I was especially put off by the final bossfight. While it was visually appealing, there is something very uncool about introducing a new game mechanic (fencing) at the final moment. Also, the fencing mechanics were very poor, leaving you with little or no control and no access to your regular moves.

    While visually appealing, this game had no soul and it has no replay value. The campaign felt short and repetitive, with very little (nothing?) new being introduced to distinguish this from the previous games.

    I feel cheated.

    A beautiful game with an amazing singleplayer and great written characters. This game is worth buying for the singleplayer alone.

    The multiplayer though, is why I'm not giving this game a 10/10. Only 9 maps and 3 modes. Plently of weapons and cosmetics though. The mutliplayer does have some issues though. Matchmaking is broken, you constantly get paired up with people below your skill

Matchmaking is broken, you constantly get paired up with people below your skill level and paired up against people way beyond your skill level. Sometimes you get into a game that has already started. Giving you almost no score at all, the team you get paired up with though alwes seems to lose. It also has some balancing issues. Some weapons will kill you in 2-3 shots. You can shoot 20 bullets into a guy with a machine gun and he doesn't die, if he's using a pistol he will kill you in 3-4 shots. Yes. A pistol. Only thing that will keep you playing is collecting all the skins, hats and weapons.

    Other than that, amazing game. I don't recommend buying it for $60, though. Wait for a sale.

    -Good story, great ending/epilogue.
    -Excellent graphics (at times).

    Con’s:
    -Some sections glitchy and not to the same standard as others (as if made by different studios, or rushed) I assume this is down to the reported development issues.
    -The stunning set pieces of UC2 have all but gone in UC4 and have been replaced by literally hours of rock climbing.
    -Graphics are inconsistent, again as if made by different studios. Some areas/levels look as good as anything I’ve seen, then others (some sections in Scotland etc.) look of a lower standard.

    Overall: I didn’t mind the slower pace, I love the Last of Us and at times UC4 played more like this, however the development issues showed in places. The ridiculous amount of climbing/platforming as opposed to the series trademark set pieces was disappointing. Overall I was ready to completely slam this, but they just about won me back with the last few hours and the excellent ending/epilogue.

    Good bye Unchartered, I’ll remember the games fondly but as with most series these days – you made one too many.

The story telling is personal, deep, and emotional; learning many important things from The Last of Us. The 'wide linear' environments are a beautiful addition to the game making you feel like you are on a true pirate adventure. Henry Jackman's music is stunning, fitting perfectly throughout the entire game; especially during the opening credits. I like how they chose to create a new main theme for this game; titled 'A Thief's End' rather than creating Nate's Theme 4.0. This new theme is far superior in my opinion. And I don't even know where to begin with the graphics, the game looks life-like; boosting the best looking graphics of any game I've ever seen. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End offers more than just a game does, and it offers more than a movie does; it offers an experience. It is an experience that far surpasses films and other forms of story telling, which is why I am so passionate about the video game medium. It is a medium that allows you to fully immerse yourself in a story and world. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End does this masterfully. I hope Naughty Dog continues to exel pushing other developers to strive to make better games in the future. Expand

If you watch a lot of action movies, you may be able to guess what is going to happen next. Nothing feels truly unique here (Tomb Raider or Last of us have better stories in my opinion)

    Gameplay is uh ... mediocre. Well, I do not want to blame the developers but it is a very mediocre gameplay, like general action games 4 - 5 years ago. You do climbing, shooting, sneaking, and then repeat. This game doesn't even have an upgraded weapon system. No leveling yourself, No any rpg stuffs like Tomb Raiders or Last of us ( Last of us is also naughty dog owners, I don't understand why they degrade gameplay system). This game also should have allowed you to control your teammates like MassEffects since we have to fight in team many times.

    I didn't play multiplayer so I have no opinion in that but I heard that it was good.

    Music is OK, Voice acting is good. The ending and the epilogue are satisfying and well made. I spent 15 hrs finishing the game.

    In sum, Uncharted 4 is good action game especially graphic but gameplay is too old school for 2016 game. I hope action games will get leveraged in gameplay soon. Need something new, That is all

    To me, Uncharted 4 is a major disappointment in many ways. First of all, some context is very important for understanding why this game is so different from the previous 3 entries in the series.
    It is because Amy Hennig was originally supposed to be the writer/director of the game, but then, in a very dubious turn of events, she left the team, and alot of the work that was done was
    To me, Uncharted 4 is a major disappointment in many ways. First of all, some context is very important for understanding why this game is so different from the previous 3 entries in the series.
    It is because Amy Hennig was originally supposed to be the writer/director of the game, but then, in a very dubious turn of events, she left the team, and alot of the work that was done was scrapped, and Neil Druckmann and Bruce Straley of "The Last of Us"-fame took over development. It is unknown what exactly happened, but it seems unlikely that she would willingly discard a project she is obviously very invested in. What makes it even more shady, is that there is almost no information to be found on why she left.

    It is clear, that we would have gotten a very different game, had she remained at the helm of development. As I already mentioned it is no secret that much of her work was scrapped, when Neil Druckmann and Bruce Straley took over. You can go and watch the first teaser trailer (the one that features narration while the camera pans over a map), and you will see that it has nothing to do with the final game.

    Alright now let's get to my review of the game we ended up getting: Simply put, it is too much Neil Druckmann, and not enough Amy Hennig. Too much "The Last of Us", and not enough Uncharted. From the bleak titlescreen, to the soundtrack that completely lacks the sense of adventure and excitement the previous games conveyed, everything is just way too drab for an Uncharted game.
    But alright, let's look at it for what it claims to be. It doesn't aspire to be as grand and adventurous as the previous games. Instead it attempts to focus more on the characters, especially Nathan Drake himself. There are several problems with that.

    *First of all, even as a more character focused experience, the game does not have to be as drab and lifeless as it is. It plainly lacks the energy that the other games have.

    *The pacing of the game is absolutely horrendous. I never got bored with the previous Uncharted games, even after several playthroughs. They also had more story focused sequences, particularily Uncharted3 such as playing as kid Nate, or playing Nate as he wanders the desert, looking for water. But these games were made by someone who knew what pacing is. I really don't want to sound too condescending, since I do think "The Last of Us" was an expertly crafted game with great pacing, but what the hell were Neil/Bruce thinking? Uncharted 4 is straight-up boring for about half the freaking playtime. Soo many sequences are extremely tedious on the first playthrough already. And it certainly does not get better on later playthroughs. There are a lot (and I mean a lot) of sequences, that are boring as hell to play and only serve some story related purpose. Again I legitimately enjoyed these parts in the previous games (or the Uncharted trilogy as I like to call it), however here they are unbearably boring. It all harkens back to the atrocious pacing of the game. In previous games you'd have these amazing actionpacked sequences that go on for really long, so by the time the pacing slows down it is very welcome. But in 4 just as you start to get into the flow of things, it stops dead in its tracks and forces you to play some asinine storyfocused bit, where all you do is usually walk around, and also maybe climb a bit if you're lucky. It's bad.

    *The shoot-outs are seperated into socalled encounters. Now here's the problem with that: In Uncharted 1-3 enemies would litter the game. There generally aren't many sequences that don't feature enemies. Even as you're just going from A to B, there are usually a couple of enemies in your way. Well say goodbye to that, cause Uncharted 4 wants to make sure you're not having too much fun. So enemies only appear in these kinda big open areas, called encounters. I really don't mind how shootouts play out here, and it's cool that they are a bit less linear, and it allows you to be stealthier than before. But there should also be enemies sprinkled throughout the levels. There are parts where you climb around for really long. and It gets very very boring. fast.

    *Last but certainly not least: These are not the characters you've come to love in the trilogy. They are pale imitations at best. It seems like the writers just really don't like Nate. Nate was always a bit full of himself but he was also likable and capable of having a real conversation with his friends. In this game he maintains absolutely nothing except for the "full of himself"-part. Sully and Elena are just extremely bland. The characters you came to love over the last games are not here.

    So to summarize, Uncharted 4 is a boring, heartless action adventure game, that should have never been made. It really agitates me to no end, that we never got to see the game that the clearly much more capable (at least in the realm of Uncharted games) Amy Hennig wanted to make, but here we are. Thank you for reading my review :)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Hi guys I only ever comment on a games flaws.

    1. While in chapter 13 (between water and beach, a clipping issue caused my character to somehow become trapped under beach).

    2. Jumps from ropes are some times a bit fickle or at rather stupid angles.

    3. Crash Bandicoot easter egg was fine but god dam annoying when it's associated with trophy for platinum cause the jumps if off by a very small amount like an inch from the edge you plummet to death and die, was most tedious thing in game which would have scored higher if it wasn't for ascoiating it with a trophy.

    4. The game occasionally Crashes when loading or skipping cut scenes (I was using downloaded from store version not disc) and using 1.05 for the majority of play through.

    5. Voice acting sounded strained in parts, but this may have been intentional for comic purposes.

    I did not pay for a crash bandicoot easter egg tied to a trophy I paid for uncharted. It lost two point merely for the annoyance of crash bandicoot and the super long animation it takes to see stuff in the epilogue.

Rise of the Tomb Raider is also boring but its got a whole lot more action and things to keep you interested. I keep reading all these 10 rated reviews of people saying the game play is top notch and I am doing my very best to try and understand.

This game is closest to Uncharted 1 and that game sucked straight butt. I've played them all and Uncharted 2 & 3 are the best ones in the series.
    I just want another The Last of Us. IMO that's where Naughty Dogs bread and butter is. Uncharted was never that amazing. Sony fans blew this series up like the 2nd coming of Christ when its not. I wouldn't hesitate once to take a new God of War game over any Uncharted game any day. Now that's a series Sony has that MS nor Nintendo can or will ever touch.

    I first beat U4 on Crushing difficulty, which is the hardest possible difficulty. And one thing I wish I was told before going down this path is to not do the first play-through on Crushing. It is not as rewarding to beat the game on the hardest possible difficulty on the first try as it is in other games. The reason for that is because there is one key elements that is removed in CrushingI first beat U4 on Crushing difficulty, which is the hardest possible difficulty. And one thing I wish I was told before going down this path is to not do the first play-through on Crushing. It is not as rewarding to beat the game on the hardest possible difficulty on the first try as it is in other games. The reason for that is because there is one key elements that is removed in Crushing that is available otherwise. That feature is the stealth mode. In Crushing, stealth mode is almost useless many of the times. U4 makes stealth a bigger part of the core gameplay in comparison to previous tittles. You are still able to stealth through certain levels and be able to maybe kill a few guards before essentially being forced to go commando, but the ability for guards to notice you in Crushing is significantly easier and there is no detection meter nor marking capabilities. If you really care to stealth 100% of the time then you may, but it will take a lot of practice without the two features mentioned prior. Not only is it excrutiating to stealth on Crushing, but there is no real reward for doing so. The game does not even encourage stealth gameplay like others do. For example, you will never find a silenced weapon and there is no penalty for going guns blazing shortly after the encounter started Please heed my advice and enjoy the game on another difficulty before Crushing on your first play-through. The game is absolutely beautiful and the story is amazing. I just wished I didn't play it on Crushing the first time so I could enjoy the game more. Expand

    Uncharted 4 is a landmark title that anyone remotely interested in interactive storytelling should invest in. Naughty Dog has once again raised the bar across the industry. Thrilling shootouts, a staggering level of detail, breathtaking visuals and emotional depth come together to make Uncharted 4: A Thief's End a must-play masterpiece.

    Stating that the forthcoming game will be the last rendezvous with a popular, charismatic hero is a rare phenomenon. I congratulate Naughty Dog on their courage and in spite of myself keep my fingers crossed for them to stick to their decision. The farewell party they threw for Nate is simply spectacular. This is how I want to remember him, not as an old man who rubbed his joints with pain cream and then found a UFO. Uncharted 4 is a brilliant game and a breathtaking demonstration of what PS4 is capable of. [07/2016, p.56]

    Whiteknuckle action, captivating characters, and luscious locales - the best Uncharted yet. [June 2016, p.64]
