Uncharted: The Lost Legacy

It's way too short! Such a fun game. Beautiful scenery, amazing story and tons of girl power. I also loved the surprise character showing up. Really hope they make another game with Chloe and Nadine. Maybe one where you can chose who you want to play as.

The Lost Legacy doesn't really do anything the best in the series, but is overall the best package simply because unlike every other Uncharted game, there isn't a single tedious moment of gameplay (except perhaps the final fight with Asav, but that lasts mere minutes). Throughout the game, Chloe is a fantastic protagonist and while Nathan Drake is one of the greatest video game characters, it is actually a good thing for one to play from a different perspective. This removed the incredibly boring Drake's journal sections in turn of a more reward lockpick system and more visually appealing photos. The areas in which you could use stealth weren't as well constructed as they were in UC4, but the combat was and the combat was generally more exciting and less frustrating. Sam Drake is an awesome addition again, but is left out just enough to remind that this isn't a Nathan Drake tale. The two aspects that Lost Legacy absolutely knocks out of the park are the puzzles and the visuals. The puzzles, for the first time in the series are actually enjoyable to figure out and the visuals, while similar to UC4 are absolutely stunning. The open world (Chapter 4) has gotten some criticism for not having much to do, and while this is somewhat true, the open world is still fantastic because it is a first for the series and there are still 11 hoysala tokens to find, meaning there are still 15 substantial things to do on the map. The reward for finding all of the tokens gets you The Queen's Ruby, which makes the treasure hunting actually doable. Taking each UC game as whole, this is surprisingly the very best.

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy shows promising signs of what the future holds for Uncharted.

Chloe returns with a different Nadine from Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (2016) in an epic adventure against menacing villain, Asav.

There are plenty of positives to take from The Lost Legacy. One would be that it's totally stunning (as is tradition in the series). Halebidu is a truly beautiful setting. The gameplay is brought over well from the previous entry and Chloe is a great lead, with Nadine and Sam completing an intoxicating trio, with players wanting more once the credits roll. It's a well empowering and positive portrayal for female leads, without the game becoming patronising or forcing its ideals upon us. Naughty Dog are so good at that.

For negatives, the game does become slightly boring despite its short running time. The story simply doesn't rival the previous entries and while the trio is great and the signs are good for any possible future entries, this trio can't match up to Nate, Elena and Sully.

In conclusion, The Lost Legacy is a more than worthy entry to the series. It's a good game, with a fantastic finale. Overall, this shows the series can go on and still rival its competitors.

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy - 8/10

Greetings from Lithuania.

"Uncharted: The Lost Legacy" (2017) is a superb spin off of "Uncharted" series. Set in the same universe after the events of "Thief's End" it does not star our bellowed Nate, but Chloe instead. Accompanied by another character from 4th part (and later but another one - no spoilers) she sets out to find a relic in India. While the plot of "The Lost Legacy" isn't as great and epic as 4th games (which i think is still the best in the series), the story was never a driving force behind the series. What i absolutely loved about "The Lost Legacy" was jaw-dropping beautiful settings, amazing and graphics which made me from time to time and again and again to simply stop and look at the world around you - its breathtaking. It took be around 8 hours to complete this game - this is the shortest game in the series, but i did not rushed and looked explored every nook and cranny of it.

Overall, "The Lost Legacy" is a superbly involving action adventure game with terrific pacing, clever writing and blockbuster level production. I do hope they won't end this series with this game and continue with the franchise in the future. I loved this game.

Words don't do this game justice. Simply fantastic.
