I really don't get how this one gets kind of a bad rep when it's literally the best in the original trilogy? They finally nailed the balance between exploration and shooting, sometimes even mixing them both in the same section which felt amazing. There are still some annoying shooting sections but they aren't as bad as in the previous titles.
The escape sequences are the best, the sinking ship, the chateau on fire, the crumbling city, I loved it!! This is easily the most cinematic one, the desert part was stunning and it was really clever to save the big one towards the end instead of making the same mistake uncharted 2 did.
They could do away with the supernatural element but still it was very brief and toned down so I didn't mind it that much. My biggest complaint is probably how they tried so hard to force us into using their new melee fight mechanics, which are an improvement, for sure, but still unnecessary and clunky, especially when they throw enemies that you're forced to melee in the middle of a gunfight while being shot at. Also don't get why Cutter and Chloe kind of disappear halfway through and we never hear from them again?
But all in all my favorite of the original trilogy and I'm super excited to play the fourth
