Uncharted can be an absolute chore to play

This whole series reminds me of why I HATE platforming. Everything else about the game in enjoyable, except for the fricking climbing.

I'm trying to work my way towards Uncharted 4 by playing through the Nathan Drake collection but I just can't bring myself to finish the second game (Among Thieves) because of how frustrating the game can be.

I enjoyed The Last of Us a lot better.

I got three hours into the collection on the first one and had to turn it off.

I enjoyed the story of each Uncharted game, so I was able to finish them all. But I do agree with you on the climbing part, it gets annoying real quick.

The door's locked? Let's climb the building and go through the roof. The entrance is blocked? Let's climb the side of the building to get in. There's no ladder to get up to the top of this rock wall? Well, let's just climb it.

That's basically how every problem is solved in the game. I wish there were more ways to solve them. Maybe blow up a door with explosives or something instead of climbing around it for once lol. Overall I enjoyed the series, but the constant climbing was a little too much

Playing the older ones is tough. At the time I am sure they were great.

I loved 4 then went back and played 1-3.

1 was very hard because there were piles of awkward camera angles and the controls weren't great at times.

2 was a HUGE improvement. The rare sequel being FAR better than the 1st game.

3 was rushed to cash in on the success of 2. The gameplay was fine but the story was pasted together set pieces that made almost no sense and the the villain sucked. I still enjoyed it but it was a letdown after 2.

4 was a blast and the haters can suck it. The story was fun, the characters were fun and the gameplay worked flawlessly.

And yes, Last of Us was better but Last of Us was better than 99% of games.

2 is my favorite for sure, then 4 and 3.

Top notch graphics and story/characters, really the only things I care about in a game.

I hear Lost Legacy is very good. Its a bit shorter which appeals to me because I always felt the Uncharted games dragged on a bit.

I agree with it being a chore.

I never owned a PS until the PS4 and I tried to play the 1-3 after beating UC4. Just too much of a downgrade.

I'm kinda having the same issues with Rise of the Tomb Raider. I like the characters. The game mechanics of having to climb and climb and climb just gets a little old at times.
