Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (2016 Video Game)
8/10
A Fantastic Experience Held Back Only By Its Developers
5 April 2020
The Uncharted series reminds me of the stranger things tv show. Good but never great, OK here's a better analogy. Amazing but never perfect. A series like this has the potential to be perfect but is only held back by naughty dog sticking to the uncharted formula and never pushing the limits.

Say what you will about the story in these Uncharted games, Uncharted 1 through 4 basically has the same story, Drake and friends hunt for treasure, bad guys want same treasure, Drake finds out treasure is world threatening, Drake kills bad guy, destroys treasure, Sully, Elena and Drake live happily ever after.

Don't let take away from the fun game play elements in Uncharted 4, well some of it. Its the same basic cover base shooting since Uncharted 1 but had some cool puzzles and really does feel like an action adventure game through and through.

Overall Uncharted 4 is fantastic. There's no denying it, i'm simply explaining that this game could of been not only the best Uncharted (I personally think Uncharted 2 is the best) but be up there with the greatest games of all time. But it isn't, all because the formula was never changed. The gameplay is fun enough however so it doesn't feel repetitive.

Uncharted is an experience that should be played but don't expect the next Skyrim or Ocarina of time here.
