Generally good and quite enjoyable on the gameplay front, but the story feels amateurish and weirdly cut down.

It starts with the barely characterized villains, who are almost omniscient and always do the exactly correct thing to keep the plot going. Why are they constantly drugging and not just shooting Drake? They were ok with killing him on so many other occasions and sending a small army after him.

Just like 1 and 2, nobody develops as a person, across these harrowing adventures, it's just more of the usual snarky commentary. It would have been nice, if Drake had an epiphany after the desert.
He should be like "Holy shit, I've cheated death so many times, it's only a matter of time before something kills me, I should actually commit to Elena and other people in my life I care about".

The side characters don't play any real significance (What the fuck was the point of Cutter and why does everyone know him?), Salim just becomes Nathan's steadfast ally for basically no reason, and disappears when convenient. There was a chance here for Nathan to reflect on the carnage that grave robbers and ex-colonial powers bring to the Middle East and places of culture and treasure through his interactions with Salim, and yet...nothing. The game genuinely just feels like a butchered cut of a theoretically good story.

Even the AK in the desert sand from the title screen feels cut. Nathan picks it up in a dramatic cut scene, and you can hold it for a few montages of desert walking and then it just... disappears from your back with 0 announcement? What the hell was the point?

They made a mix of Indiana Jones 3 and Lawrence of Arabia, that is worse than either one.

TL;DR Everybody outside of the writers did a great job though (especially the environment designers and the programmers for the hallucinations, holy shit)

P.S. The lamest parts where the ones with the spiders though. Are they even supernatural or related to Ubar? What was going on there?

Creo que me gustó un poco menos que Uncharted 2, pero están bastante al nivel. Otro juego muy divertido y con mucha epicidad

while it's still a mechanically nightmare, i think with some distance i will look on it fondly

Tem a cena mais marcante da franquia Uncharted, uma diversidade de cenário muito grande, talvez a melhor dos jogos. Cenas de ações lindas e uma história muito boa.
Na minha visão, o único ponto fraco desse jogo é o antagonista, não achei nenhum deles tão marcante.

An overall disappointment after the second episode. I understand why everyone pretty much dismissed it when it came out. Following up on something so huge was no easy task, and never ever does the ride entertain as much as the epic moments already lived in the previous game.
Still has every design problem the other games had with countless enemies coming out from God knows where to try and murder you, and a hero who has no problem brutally slaughtering legions of grunts but suddenly has a conscience crisis at the very end and attempts to save the big baddie's life for no reason.
Also hand to hand combat sucks ass and this episode insists on having way more of them.

This game by far has the worst story in the franchise but the definitive best sets and level, this game is so dramatic but dull in story which sucks, with a better story this could be better than everything else in the franchise.
