Uncharted: The Lost Legacy

Pros:

• Great story & characters (despite no Nate)
• Great fast paced Gameplay
• Good car exploration areas
• Nadine is a badass
• Great graphics, voice, animation

Cons:

• Not allot of innovation from Uncharted 4 (thou doesn't need to be)

Verdict: Feels abit like Uncharted 4.5, but its kinda intended to be. Still a great game to get, and a must play if u love the Uncharted series.

8/10

This all out action adventure never ceases to amaze me providing some of the best scenery with a great location and a new lead protagonist in Chloe Frazer. Previously she was the anti hero of the Uncharted series, now she kinda still is in an annoyingly boisterous way. She has always been unpredictable but is calculated in her approach whilst being quite laid back at times too. Throw in Nadine Ross and you got the recipe for a dynamic duo in archaeology, they are just one tusk away from preventing a civil war! I can't help but think this could've been a co-op story mode to fulfil the gamer completely. Somehow I always tend to be more intrigued by the bad girls and Chloe Frazer is no exception to this theory. She has the ability to do the right thing when it really matters however we can never be hundred percent sure that she will. Like most uncharted games this has plenty of puzzles, treasures and third person action. I'd say it has one of the best endings of any action game with very cinematic explosive climax. Definitely well worth sticking this one out to the very end. Some have been disappointed this game isn't particularly long yet I sometimes prefer the less is more approach. Often we can get too engrossed into he gaming world without really having time to process it! This game gave us a sample of the world around us and how valuable it really is. These exotic surroundings should be explored in our own life's rather than just through the eyes of a video game.

There is also the return of another major character even so I wouldn't want to spoil the surprise. In order the obtain the tusk Chloe and Nadine must overcome a ruthless warlord and his army of insurgents whom are looking to trade the tusk to the highest bidder or so it seems. This isn't a game where the narrative is the key focus although it does have some compelling moments. Overall it was really fun bringing another solid experience to the franchise.

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

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.

Lost Legacy is not as exciting as Uncharted 4, a whole lot shorter than Uncharted 4, and yet still as fun and visually jaw-dropping as Uncharted 4.

I'm Sorry, It's Better Than Any Tomb Raider/10
