@TheBrandedSwordsman Yo man I been keeping up with your Uncharted progress, glad you're enjoying it! I've played every installment except for the psp games, and oddly enough my favorites go in order of 4, Lost Legacy ,3 ,2 ,1. Uncharted 4 is such a good send off for Nathan's story, and it's crazy how just giving him a rope can really elevate the gameplay. I've been seeing a lot of talk of another installment, do you guys think we see another Uncharted this generation?
I would honestly love to return to this world and these characters, and simply just the masterful delivery of the story.
@TraCuz- Yeah those conveniently placed rope-points always come in handy! 🤣 Another Uncharted would be great, I haven't seen how Nathan's story ends yet, but I am looking forward to a cracking conclusion. Thanks for the following my progress, I'll be sure to keep you and @Th3solution posted as I play through it, I just completed Chapter 9 today and am onto Chapter 10 now, it's an awesome game.

@TheBrandedSwordsman Yo my dude you're in for such a good time, chapters 10-11 are probably some of my favorite. Both gameplay and story combined, haha I'm genuinely excited for you.
Such a nice twist in the beginning where they make you think Sam is dead and then boom he show's up years later an hooks Nathan back into the life. It's crazy to spend 3 epic adventures with Nathan and he has no mention of a brother and suddenly Sam's such a strong character that you actually care about. Maybe it has something to do with that natural chemistry Nolan North and Troy Baker have haha.
@TraCuz-@Th3solution I think the characters are all very well-developed and it's a great action-adventure story, not much to be said about chapter nine except for all the puzzle-solving and perhaps a bit too much climbing? But I am in a vehicle now at the start of chapter 10 so I assume there will be less climbing in the game as it goes on? Otherwise it could get a bit same-y.
Edit: Tra, yeah, of course, there is definitely natural chemistry there. It is apparent.

@TheBrandedSwordsman Honestly chapter 9 wasn't that memorable, and the vehicle in chapter 10 definitely breaks up the gameplay but get ready, if I remember correctly you have some iconic action moments ahead of you towards the end of this chapter/beginning of chapter 11.
@TheBrandedSwordsman Good to see your progress. Yeah, all I’ll say is that the backstory and side content contained in Lost Legacy is a great filling in of character development and gives some of the people and events of UC4 some nice perspective.
@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy I’ve finally finished the main story in Y5 but want to tidy up some loose ends/trophies but it is certainly looong. I’ve clocked up over 120hrs on it already!
I’ve enjoyed it but it has certainly felt long.
@LieutenantFatman Guacamelee 2 is excellent fun. I also went back to get the good ending and ending up with every trophy other than the one for replaying on hard. I even managed all the Proving Ground trophies too! A great Metroidvania and combo of platforming and combat.
@TraCuz- Use spoilers tags around the words you want to blank out. Which is done by doing this: (spoiler) insert text here (/spoiler), but replace the brackets with square brackets [ ]. Or just hit the quote button to see how it is done down below.
@TheBrandedSwordsman Yes, I've played through the first 3 Uncharted games via the PS4 remastered collection. Overall they're quite fun. Drake is alright, although he can be a bit smug at times. Sully is great, and any scene that he's in is automatically a good one.
Out of the 3 games, I'm going to take the unpopular opinion and say the first one is my favourite. I like how it's not as over the top as the others, and keeps things focused around one main island. Plus we get to see a lot of best girl Elena in it. And I think the supernatural elements are handled best in this game, as they're quite scary and challenging. In later games, the supernatural fights become far too frustrating.
I've got the 4th game somewhere from a previous sale, so I'm up for giving it a try at some point.
So I’m playing through Uncharted Drakes Fortune Remaster on PS4 at the moment and it’s been several years since I played the game originally on PS3. I’ve been enjoying it immensely until just this moment... Chapter 12. How did I not remember this absolutely atrocious upstream jet ski run with exploding barrels, sniping bad guys, and the most loosey-goosey awful steering controls ever devised? That was a very unfun experience. 😅 Hopefully that’s the last I see of that jet ski.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
@TraCuz- Yeah, for me too. Although a lot of it comes back to my memory, but there are whole sections where I don’t really remember it — like the aforementioned jet ski section. I must have blocked it out of my memory. I’m actually at Chapter 17 now, making good progress, and I overall think the game is brilliant. The vocal performances are stupendous, and the visuals and flow of the game is so well done. The hordes of enemies that come at you is a little annoying at times, and there are a few little inconsistencies here and there, but it’s a great game. If it’s been since PS3 days since you played it then you should give the PS4 remaster a spin.
@Th3solution How are the story beats in that chapter?

@Thrillho
Those Proving Ground challenges are fun, didn't quite manage gold in all of them yet. Thinking I will return to play hard mode at some point, but I tend to find a big break between playthroughs makes it a lot more enjoyable on the revisit.
@TheBrandedSwordsman Well, I just started the chapter and quit for the night, but up to this point the story is quite good. A typical Indiana Jones style artifact and treasure hunt. It’s nothing too complex, and there is definitely plenty of Hollywood style moments of pure convenience to move the plot along, so it doesn’t always make perfect sense, but it’s exciting all the same. For example, and this is only a minor spoiler, but I’ll spoiler tag it anyways - Nathan and Elena just made it through a complex maze of puzzles trying to get to the treasure, and they reach the end and find a decayed body, which is a skeleton.. with a beard (how is there hair and a beard on a skull with no skin?!) and Nate immediately knows the corpse’s identity and he immediately deduces the circumstances of his death. It’s all a little too convenient. Also when they find certain clues like maps or various devices, sometimes they are just laying out in the open... yeah right — like a map from the 1500’s would be laying out and that easily readable without some kind of special preservation done to it. But I look past all these over analyzation issues and enjoy it for what it is. I mean, what video game story doesn’t have a few plot holes?
But I think I’m pretty close to the end. The climactic encounter is about to occur and maybe I’ll finish it in the next day to two.
