Though I could definitely say this game owes a lot to the Uncharted series, the opposite is also true so it's fair I think. But honestly I would say that the first entry into this rebooted series is better than the first Uncharted. But this game also does a lot to stand on it's own, albeit nothing particularly innovative to gaming in general, but still enough to make it more than an Uncharted clone. I liked that you got constant new weapons and gear throughout the game to keep things fresh and interesting. I will say I didn't do much of the side content including most of the tombs but I enjoyed the linear experience and it's nice to play a game that doesn't have pointless open world elements. I also really liked Lara's development from a frightened survivor to a true badass, but the side characters weren't particularly interesting. Still overall a really good game with fun and satisfying gameplay and some great set pieces.
