I love dlc. There’s nothing better then having the one game you like be expanded in some way. Bioshock 2 had it, the last of us had it, and sonic origins certainly has it. But sometimes, dlc ends up becoming bigger than expected. A great example of this is the lost legacy, an uncharted adventure without Nathan drake and instead, drum roll, Chloe frazer! Yeah…where’s Charlie cutter? So because she didn’t appear in the main game they decided to give her a full blown game with the length of a dlc…good enough I guess.

So we play as Chloe frazer on her journey to find the tusk of ganesh. She is helped by Nadine Ross and Sam drake as they go against Asav to get the tusk first. Not the biggest plot but it makes sense why. They just wanted to experiment with how an uncharted game would go without Nathan being the protagonist and I guess they didn’t want to waste all the assets from uncharted 4.

Gameplay is practically the same as it is in uncharted 4 with a few differences. For starters, like 4 experimented with, lost legacy tries to be a lot more non-linear and presents a non-linear space for a big portion of the game. You can do certain fights in any order you want and can even look around for bonuses. Puzzles are also probably at their height here. Even though they are practically the same as they were in 4 they have at least given them a bit more of a centre point and they aren’t too annoying. Gunplay and fights in general are the same as they were in 4 and that’s basically it…

So…that’s it for the uncharted saga so far. I doubt we’ll get any more sequels from naughty dog who seem to have dropped the franchise for now which is a shame. There have been rumours but right now I think I’d rather just have a jak 4 not gonna lie.

Good little game, decent story, still great gameplay, I love pizza

Agreed
Brings me back to going back to school, that last week of summer before senior year in high school since that's when it released. Man I should really play all the uncharted games again, binged em all in 2017 lol
