    Really enjoyed the game. I was very nostalgic at the end. No more mainline Uncharted. Great writing, relaxing and beautiful.

Uncharted 4 has by far the best and most satisfying gunplay out of this series, hands down. Uncharted 4 has the best level design and stealth during combat sections in this series, hands down. It also has the best multiplayer this series ever has (imo) hands down. These four concepts are perfect in this game, Naughty Dog really refined the gunplay and gameplay in this game nicely. The characters in this game are the same loveable bunch from previous uncharted, except for Sam; and this is where the hiccups begin for this game. You stick with Sam for like 75% of this game, and his character just wasn't very interesting, I didn't care for him. In a game where story rules all, having a character that's generic and rather predictable takes away from game a lot. The villains are also meh in this game, without trying to spoil anything the twist in the story was disappointing and rather predictable. Overall the story teeter'd from predictable to good for me personally, but I did enjoyed the ending. The gameplay overall was pretty good, I loved the open-linear world, it helped added oomph to the gamelength, and most locations were interesting and treasure hunting was great. The combat sections were amazing, I loved the level designs of it, you can approach from so many angles and directions it was very fun, the stealth was a welcome addition (more optiions is never a bad thing). The guns are less wonky, and enemies are less bullet sponges, just overall amazing. The only parts I didn't like was that the game's pacing can get pretty slow, it's borderline walking (or climbing) simulator for major chunks of this game. This wouldn't had been a problem had the game's story was amazing, but it was good and nothing more. The set action pieces for uncharted (it's trademark imo) is pretty good (would've been better had it not been spoiled by game trailers). Overall I did think the game was really good, add in the fun and tactical multiplayer and this is certainly a day one buy with great longevity. 9.0/10. On a personal side note: I also thought this was a great sendoff for the series, because honestly I feel like there's just not much we haven't seen anymore, form this game or genre; anyone who has played all four knows what I'm talking about.

    Cons:
    - Climbing can become repetitive, and thus boring, for some people.
    - Some nonsensical ludonarrative dissonance (which actually is even admitted in a PS trophy) elements. Like the fact that the protagonist acts like he is not a killer during cutscenes, but during gameplay sections he can kill dozens (potentially hundreds or thousands for multiple playthroughs) of people just to conclude his quest. This fact broke my immersion while playing. Might happen to the reader too.
    - Unnecessary (and expensive) DLC content (not considered for final score, just pointed here).

    Final Remarks:
    Overall the game is a technical masterpiece, but unfortunately only technical. Graphics impress and characters fuel the story with interest, keeping the player invested on the experience. Absolute recommendation to everyone who doesn't mind playing fundamentally linear shooting games, recommended also to players who enjoy short game experiences or even interesting stories.
    Not recommended only to the ones who are looking for a long experience (50h+) or a vast open world.

    Having played every Uncharted except the PS Vita game, I can say firmly that Uncharted 2 and 3 are the best starring Nathan, perfect 10s. Uncharted 4 has the best, most personal story, but the pacing is off and the gameplay, though it has a few bright spots, is overall just average. There is nothing like the tremendous set pieces of Uncharted 2 or 3, or of Lost Legacy.

    So bottom line,
    Having played every Uncharted except the PS Vita game, I can say firmly that Uncharted 2 and 3 are the best starring Nathan, perfect 10s. Uncharted 4 has the best, most personal story, but the pacing is off and the gameplay, though it has a few bright spots, is overall just average. There is nothing like the tremendous set pieces of Uncharted 2 or 3, or of Lost Legacy.

    So bottom line, Uncharted 4 has the best graphics of any Uncharted (except Lost Legacy), ties the characters' relationships up nicely. It's excellent with character. It also provides a better motivation for Nathan to go on his quest, with a surprising twist about 2/3 through in terms of character and plot - so if you cut it into a movie (leaving out all the ordinary gameplay) it would make the best movie of any Uncharted game, but when you play it you DO have to play through all the running and jumping and gunfights, and in this game - except for the excellent sword fight toward the end and a few other bright spots - the gameplay is not bad, but it just isn't up to par with 2 and 3, or Lost Legacy.

    Lost Legacy deserves it's own place. It stars Chloe Frazier and Nadine. Nathan doesn't even appear. The characters relate in a grittier more realistic way than Nathan's games. Nathan will nearly lose his life 5 times in a minute, then chuckle when the danger is past and say something like, "Well that was close." Lost Legacy does not treat life threatening situations as lightly, so the game feels more real. The two co-leads also barely trust each other, which gives the game a good noirish feel. It also deserves a 10.

    If you haven't played any Uncharted games, I would recommend 2, 3, and Lost Legacy, before playing 4. The first game, Uncharted 1, is about as good in terms of gameplay as 4, but without as good of a story.

    While much game play remains unchanged, the addition of a grapple line, stealth and driving work really well in UC4 and where the game really shines is in the storytelling and pacing. A well crafted and fitting end to the series.

    GRAPHICS: Gorgeous and seamless with amazing set pieces, excellent character models and animations. VOICE: The voice acting is top notch with Nolan North
    While much game play remains unchanged, the addition of a grapple line, stealth and driving work really well in UC4 and where the game really shines is in the storytelling and pacing. A well crafted and fitting end to the series.

    GRAPHICS: Gorgeous and seamless with amazing set pieces, excellent character models and animations.

    VOICE: The voice acting is top notch with Nolan North and Troy Baker working very well together. Exceptionally well acted all the way around.

    SOUND: Excellent sound with fitting source to reception recognition.

    SOUNDTRACK: Really exceptional music and use of it to create atmosphere. At one point when Nate and Elena are coming to grips with the difficulty and hurt of their relationship I was almost moved to tears - and for a cynic like me that is quite feat.

    GAME PLAY: The shooting continues to be Uncharted as always but the use of the grapple, stealth tactics and, of all things, driving work is so well. I usually don't care for driving sections and usually that is a really weak aspect (looking at you Watch Dogs) but here it is done superbly to where I really enjoyed it.

    REPLAY VALUE: I have not dipped into the multiplayer so I can't comment on that, but for me, like its predecessors, I have little desire to replay the title. Once the story is complete and all the puzzles solved I have no reason to replay the game. The multiplayer may provide that value, but I prefer single player games.

    OVERALL: An exceptional title that anyone who likes action adventure games should pick up and play. Since it may only be worth a single play through one might want to borrow or rent it, however I recommend owning it, to support Naughty Dog and as a must have in a video game collection. It may be worth revisiting in a couple of years and the multiplayer may be worth having - your mileage may vary.

    Don't misunderstand me, the game is still awesome ! Not just at the level of the other 2.

    Peerless. The next generation of video games starts here. PS4's first flagship game. From the first chapter to the last, Uncharted 4 revels in its own brilliance. The humour is as alive as it's ever been, the graphics set a new bar, the mechanics are second to none. I've been playing video games for over 20 years and this is one of the best I've ever played.

    Nathan Drake returns from retirement to finish the works of what he and someone close to him set out to accomplish many years ago. The game reintroduces all time best side kick Victor Sullivan, his on and off again love interest Elena and a new character to find the fabled treasure of the penitent pirate Captain Avery.

    Everything you loved about the previous titles is here. The difficulty in Challenging mode is real. The environment and level of detail is unprecedented. If you thought The Last of Us was an eye opener be ready to visit the next level. This is the kind of game that wishes you owned a PlayStation. Perfect game highly recommended.

    The multiplayer is decent and introduces many new features that buffs your character. No longer are you required to camp out the respawning of power ups like the previous title, allowing a much better free flowing experience. Unfortunately at this moment there is no co-op missions such experienced in Uncharted 2. However it is early days with three upcoming DLCs already announced.

    For the trophy hunters, expect a very easy platinum with a minimum of two play-thrus (a speed/accuracy run and a challenge mode run). The majority of the trophies can be acquired through chapter/encounter select. The game has 5 multiplayer trophies which can be acquired in less than 2 hours.

    Enjoy this one, it's for the players.

    Audiovisual: A produção do jogo é de altíssimo nível, todo o visual do jogo é explendoroso. O detalhismo, a movimentação dos personagens e todas animações estão muito acima do que havia sido visto em games. O esmero técnico e artístico da Naughty Dog tem que ser aplaudido de pé por quem gosto da vídeo game.

    Gameplay; O jogo flui muito bem, os controles são excelentes e os tiroteios são lindos. Mas nesse ponto o jogo não é perfeito: A IA é no máximo mediana, a exploração e o sistema de stealth são limitados, os puzzles estão ainda mais fáceis e o plataforming as vezes é cansativo e scripitado demais.

    De toda forma o conjunto da obra é mais que recomendado aos donos do Playstation 4.

    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]
