This game's short length doesn't bother me at all.

The game was originally going to be a DLC, and that does show at points: the game is short, the story has pacing issues, and certain characters come in and out of the story very abruptly. Lost Legacy can feel rushed, but I prefer that to two and four, which felt much too slow at points, and I enjoyed this game more than either of them.

For a series about exploration, this is the only game in the series where you can actually explore an open space for collectables; The stealth combat is the best in the series, aided by the lockpicking mechanic and silenced pistol; And Asav is an excellent villain: articulate with a well-defined motive and imposing demeanor while still being bat-shit crazy. Every time he was on screen, I was saying: "this is what Lazarevic should have been." It's such a shame this wound up being the last game in the series, because it took so many steps in the right direction for the franchise.

I strongly recommend Lost Legacy: it's my second favorite Uncharted game. If you want to know my favorite is, read any of my other reviews of any of the other Uncharted games.
