Четвёртая часть гораздо нерасторопнее предыдущих (что многие рецензенты признают, но, почему-то, определяют как достоинство: мол, есть время полюбоваться пейзажами). В итоге сразу после финальных титров в памяти остаются только трогательно ностальгический пролог на чердаке и эпизод с погоней на внедорожниках, заспойлеренный разработчиками задолго до релиза. Ну ещё разве что ползанье по уступам на необитаемом острове - первый за всю серию затянутый и раздражающий эпизод. В контексте огромного количества ярких воспоминаний, связанных со второй и третьей частями франшизы, ситуация нелепая.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I keep going back to this game to try and push through to the end, but it's a real struggle. And it's not because the game is difficult (it isn't) but because of how dreadfully boring it is.

    I really enjoyed the other three games - 1 was unpolished but fun, 2 was the best of the series, 3 upped the spectacle and diverse environments though was disjointed and made less sense. I even played most of Golden Abyss and it wasn't bad. Uncharted 4 is just a tedious slog. It's one thing to have puzzles, character moments, and slow parts to build immersion and break up the action. All the others had these and it worked. But this time around they basically forgot to include any actual gameplay! Action sequences seem almost begrudgingly shoved in, in the form of "encounters", which are actually fine, but they are often literally hours apart. In between these are interminable segments of walking, talking, and climbing, with little to no additional combat.

    I have made it maybe 1/2 or 2/3 of the way through the game, and the plot isn't great. It looked promising at first starting out with 'retired' Nate getting back into the adventurer game, and I thought I would give it time to slowly build. But then it didn't really go anywhere interesting. The ret-conned brother character really comes out of left field. Somehow the relationships and dialogue don't do it the way they used to. Something "fun" is missing. It's clear there are different writers.

    The invulnerable (yet entirely uninteresting) black female character Nadine kicking Nate's ass left me scratching my head at first because it seemed so weird and unnecessary, but now that I know about Neil Druckman and his catastrophic influence on The Last of Us 2's plot, it makes sense that he would shoehorn this in as part of his absurd "woke" agenda.

    I can't for the life of me figure out how this misfire of a game came away with so many 9/10 reviews. Maybe one day I will make it through this one. For anyone considering picking this up, however, be warned: you might hate the series after playing it.

    Edit, revised score from 4/10:

    Now that I have finished the game, I can say that the second half finally picks up the pace and is better, and even its slow bits are improved, though the first 10-15 hours are still ridiculously slowly paced. If the first time wasn't gratuitous enough, Nadine kicks both Drake brothers' asses in hand-to-hand combat a second time!

    The final sword fight with Rafe is obnoxious and too difficult, basically a 10-minute quicktime event. Game developers: don't introduce a completely new game mechanic for the final scene! (Pro tip, spam both triangle and circle each time he swings and you'll parry correctly enough to get through).

    The ending is decent overall and brings good closure to the series, though why a guy who now literally owns a salvage company doesn't make project #1 to go back to the island and recover the billions of dollars in lost gold which he now knows the exact location of, boggles the mind.    … Expand

    Much as I wanted to really like this game, I found it to be quite boring! The storyline didn't engage me at all. I gave up paying it completely half way through, then came back to it months later to see if I changed my mind...I didn't. Although I finished it, its only because I'm a completionist. The gameplay mechanics need working on in my view. That said, graphics are pretty good.

    Lots of walking and climbing, little in the way of action. And when you finally get to the action, it's not nearly as satisfying as it was in The Last of Us. This game's greatest strength is its story. When it comes to the game, it's not up to snuff. The graphics do look tremendous, at least.

    Uncharted 4 is a dumb action/adventure movie in video game form. This is great if you like movies like Indiana Jones - just don't expect the story to be as good.

    I'm primarily interested in a good story, so my review score is primarily based on that. Lets get the other things out of the way first.

    I'm primarily interested in a good story, so my review score is primarily based on that. Lets get the other things out of the way first.

    It's obvious that graphics are a primary focus in this game. Textures, characters, and the world are some of the best on PS4, if you don't mind 30fps. And if you squint your eyes a bit (or have a small tv), things can even pass as being real.

    The gameplay cycle normally goes like this: You get a story cut-scene where your characters decide to go somewhere, you get automatically transported close to that place where you have to use your super-human rock-climbing skills (and sometimes crate-pushing skills) to make it to your final destination, and along the way, you have to murder groups of 5-15 bad guys. Repeat 50 times until the game says it's over.

    The gameplay-story cohesion isn't very good with this one and I'd say it's the biggest plot hole. Why do I, my brother, my wife, and some old man that follows me around all have super-human rock-climbing skills? Why do the bad guys always instantly know who I am and open fire on immediately upon sight? Why don't the bad guys act like normal humans and talk to me first before trying to kill me? And how did all of those bad guys, vehicles, and other equipment get to places that I had to rock-climb and Indiana-jones swing to get to and from? It's all quite video-gamey.

    I like at how near the end of the game, someone comments about how many of the bad guys were killed. Yes, you single-handedly kill about a thousand of them. I suppose this is fine because this game is catering to people who are used to shooting guys in video games, but it's just another thing that distracts from the story immersion.

    The action sequences in the game are some of the best I've seen. They're like your typical impossible movie action hero sequences where you escape a collapsing/exploding building, all while 100 people are shooting at you. For the most part, they consist of quick time events, but I can't think of a better way to do them.

    The game has disposable (although pretty) environments. After you rock-climb or shoot your way through them, you never see them again. You're constantly on the move in the story, so this makes sense. But I do feel bad about the amount of work put into things that you see for only 30 seconds.

    The story is slightly below average when compared to the multitude of stupid action adventure movies out there. It's right up your alley if you love Indiana Jones-type movies with slight conspiracies and mysteries. It has the typical plot holes for these kinds of movies, and then some, because it's not quite as coherent as a normal movie and it has to deal with all of the video-gamey mechanics on display. You're basically on a quest to find a pirate's lost treasure and need to go around the world looking for the trail and clues to bring you to your next spot. And of course, the bad guys are normally ahead of you the entire time (so you have someone to shoot at along the way). This of course leads up to a climatic ending where there's lots of fire, explosions, and destruction because that's how stupid action adventure movies are supposed to end.

    I played though this because I wanted to see what the majority of people thought was a good game these days (and because it was $7). It met my expectations exactly and it was quite the average experience. It's for lovers of stupid action-adventure movies and not for those seeking unique or amazing masterpieces in storytelling. But hey, everyone needs to start somewhere..    … Expand

A globe trotting adventure filled with wonder, mystery and excitement like Indiana Jones was going to turn into a chase movie called National Treasure. Yes, some of the action sequences were very well crafted and amazing to play through. Uncharted 4 was the most technically polished installment and a sight to behold in the whole franchise. However, it was the pacing of the story in the third act that dragged it down like a 4x4 jeep struggling through thick mud.

    The problem was the developers were trying to duplicate their success in The Last of Us. They tried to make it more gritty and realistic, this sucked out the wonder and discovery that were the hallmarks of the series. Think of a Survivor Island type reality show where ordinary people were at each other's throats for a shot at fame and fortune. Nothing more, nothing less. No wonder, no mystery.

    The third act was filled with repetitive environmental puzzles and endless CoD inspired battles of A.I. grenade spamming and cheap enemy sniper kills. The end of the story was nearly in sight, but it felt like the developers were trying to prolong the playtime and it felt like a slog.

    If you are long time fan of the Uncharted series and you are a completionist, Uncharted 4 still entertains as it does have its moments. However, it is a beautiful view with an empty hole in the ground where the hear and soul of the series has been long dug out.    … Expand

    Simply amazing graphics fail to make up for the hollow characters, predictable plot line, simple puzzles, and linear in-game play.

    At no point of the game is there any real suspense despite a harder than average difficulty setting. All cliff climbing (about 25%) of the game could be complete by a small child. A real disappointment following The Last of Us which was superb. Would not buy.

    Now it's really hard to say when this whole thing went to hell. At some point the stealth/action segments became boring and repetitive especially since the enemy AI is unbelievably dumb. The whole jumping/grappling mechanic was pretty much useless from the start and becomes very stale soon and rather annoying towards the end. figuring out your way towards the next objective or the puzzles, which are easy for the most part are a total waste of time. why would companies fill their AAA games with stuff that's simply not fun to do?
    As the game progressed the story and dialogue deteriorated as well giving us the shallow, insipid equivalent of a run-of-the-mill action blockbuster. By chapter 17 (there's 22)I just wanted to finish this damn game and be done with it. There are some fun elements to this one, but they're few and far between.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Here are some thoughts from a screenwriter's perspective.

    + amazing, at times unbelievable, visuals and sets. Well done, Naughty Dog!

    - Way too much climbing. It's become a climbing simulator, guys! Reaching even the highest peaks with the greatest vistas ends up feeling mundane, as if running an errand. Climbing should have been placed more carefully. You can hardly just WALK in this game, without some obstacle in your way every five steps.

    - An unnecessarily happy ending. They set this up to be a more mature, darker Uncharted, and as such Sam was a tragic character, who resists growth. Therefore, I was totally prepared to see him die because of his obsession. Nope. Full-on happy ending that actually weakens our hero Nathan.

    - Same goes with Elena. I could not feel her strong bond with Nathan. Her forgiveness of Nathan's enourmous deceit may seem human, but I wanted more ambiguity, like, "let's see, if you and I cn still be together after this...". Instead, she just goes along with her husband. I wished that Elena had was pregnant, but didn't get a chance to tell Nathan about it, because he rushed off with Sam. That way, we (and Nathan too) would have really cared for Elena's well-being - it would have created a stronger core conflict.

    - There are ZERO consequences for our hero(s). None. Sure, lots of bad things happen, but nothing is ever really at stake. Nothing ever gets lost. We can see how super-human our hero(s) are, so why should we ever care?

    - Weird similarities to The Last Of Us (a game I loved and am deeply impressed by). From those white circles that appear on top of objects, to the guitar-heavy, monotone soundtrack, to that tacked-on Epilogue with their daughter, this Uncharted felt more like a TLOU hybrid, but without the great writing, character depth and REAL stealth (I was fully expecting a zombie to jump through the window and eat her).

    - Too much shooting in the last third. It turns into a massacre and our hero(s) humanity and relateability suffers from it.

    - That final QTE boss fight! Easily the worst boss in any Uncharted game. I didn't even get to know Rafe. I didn't hate him enough, to want him to die. Uncharted seriously has a villain and showdown problem.

    - Basically, Goonies (one of my childhood faves) for grown-ups with less charme and less fun booby traps. The finale is almost identical, but I expected more of this AAA game and these writers.

    - All fantasy is gone! It's almost as if the last Uncharteds with their monsters and demons happened in a parallel universe. In an Uncharted game, you have to have some supernatural element. I was fully looking forward to some Voodoo magic that would bring als those beautiful skeletons back to life to defend their treasure, but... nada. A huge missed opportunity and a brand-breaking shift in tone, that makes Nathan's world seem boringly real - and created a stark disparity to all his superhero style jumping, climbing, swinging and surviving. Uncharted is supposed to be over-the-top, Indiana Jones-style action and FUN. The moment you try to turn it into a mature, layered thing, it falls apart.    … Expand

    I really, really wanted to like this game. I promise you. I was all set to go... Then, suddenly and without warning, I got really, really bored. I was having a great time, loved the game, then got very bored very quickly. I was playing on hard to keep it interesting but.

    This is a movie in the form of a game. Mechanics are entirely dull and repetitive... The complete synopsis of the game is "you climb and talk to your brother."

    Mechanics are everything in a game and unless you want to watch a movie through a game by pressing X, I would caution you against this. I lost $30 or more trading it back in but I did it because I literally couldn't bear to spend another second of my life on this game.    … Expand

    Can't understand the fuss. I mean it looks very pretty and I suppose the story is okay (albeit quite cheesy at times). But the gameplay got very repetitive and boring after a while. Aside from maybe 1 or 2 missions, everything was very linear. Not much thinking involved here, everything was spoonfed to you.

    It all looked very pretty and the animation and voices were done really well, but it was just so very linear and boring. It was more like watching a straight-to-DVD film with the occasional bit of interaction. And I got very bored of climbing up rock faces very quickly. It was all a bit brainless to be honest. Aside from the one buckets puzzle it was more of a time consuming chore thanIt all looked very pretty and the animation and voices were done really well, but it was just so very linear and boring.

    The single player to me is the only thing that saves this game from being a complete disappointment. The multiplayer however is a joke. There seems to be no sign of matchmaking, only 3 modes for multiplayer at release (Which i will not forgive since uc3 came with more on release AKA classic & co-op mode), lobby bugs which can just not start the match at all at times, and overall the gameThe single player to me is the only thing that saves this game from being a complete disappointment.

At any rate i would rather go back to UC3… 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]
