Lost Legacy doesn’t add much to Uncharted 4, although i believe the lock picking mini game is new (could be wrong here..), aside from that it’s standard Uncharted business:
-Jaw dropping visual. Check.
-Annoying wise cracking protagonists. Check.
-Tons of fun. Check.
-Completely over the top action coupled with ridiculous story. Double check.

Half of Lost Legacy pretty much plays out like the Madagascar level of 4, with semi open exploration (the Jeep even makes a comeback), and the other half is the standard linear progression punctuated with platforming and gunfights.Clearly does not set to re-invente the wheel, and that’s ok since it works very well.

My biggest gripe comes from Chloe Fraser. She’s unfortunately nearly identical as Nathan Drake, all the way down to the annoying wise cracking infuriating stubbornness. I don’t recall her character much from the original trilogy (replaying them is on my to do list), maybe this is how she was.. I would have liked more character development from her, instead she feels like a copy pasted template 🙁

Conclusion: Played through it in about 9 hours, which is more than i anticipated to be honest, i thoroughly enjoyed it as a quick bite of over the top gaming.

I stand by the same arguments i’ve made of all the other Uncharted: great game, terrible Movie 😀

I’m totally surprised how short this game was- apparently it was going to be just DLC at one point but then got turned into more. Still, it was a super fun game, VERY easy in comparison to some of the other Uncharted games, had pretty great acting and a relatively compelling, if not brief, story. The puzzles were ultra rare in comparison as well, which I kind of liked. Naughty Dog turns everything they touch into gold, or at least silver at the least.
