I always like the sequels better! After Nathan Drake's solid debut, this adventure ramps things up by starting you off in the aftermath of a train crash. The core gameplay is the same, consisting of climbing, shooting, and solving puzzles to discover ancient secrets. You get to meet new characters, traverse new lands, and fight even more formidable foes. Overall, it's just a straightforward improvement on the formula, and an exciting new adventure for Drake and friends.
