I'll technically be getting Lost Legacy for free since i originally bought the digital deluxe edition of Uncharted 4 at launch that included the triple pack back when the dlc was supposed to be an add-on. :cool:

Also don't forget that the full UC4 multiplayer mode is also included in lost legacy and is really fun too.

Lol your lucky getting it a week in advance etc. Make sure not to post anything spoilery then when you get it. :p And same I'm really excited. More excited than UC4 anyway just in terms of being more interested in the characters and what they're doing. You'd think Nadine would be over these near death experiences after what she went through in UC4 but from what I've heard she didn't really have a choice.

Of course you are more excited for this than UC4, lol. One had to basically force you to finally get UC4 cheap and see that it is actually really good. XD Now that you know the games are fun, you can be all excited.

For me TLL will unfortunately be the last game for this entire year, that I am really excited for. :/ All the other games that I had hoped to release this year were delayed to 2018 (God of War, Spider-Man, Ni No Kuni 2, Dragon Quest XI, Dissidia...).
Well, there's Assassins Creed Origins...but I'm actually still on the fence about getting it. I will definitely not preorder it and wait for the reviews to drop first.

Everyone who got the season pass for 20$/€ (which isn't available anymore) is also lucky, because the game is included in there too, basically 20$/€ cheaper.

The multiplayer I don't care for at all. Didn't even try out. XD

Just one more week, guyz! :D

Fancy press kits were already delivered to reviewers in the EU:

I dislike the practice of these fancy press kits for reviewers, because they are plain and simple bribery...but damn do I want to have one of those too...

I'm just stating facts, I'll more than likely get it at least a day early myself.

Uncharted 4 was a special case because of idiots

I'm actually baffled at all the attention this game is not getting, especially in comparison to Uncharted 4. It is a new Uncharted and Uncharted 4 was a huge success after all. Do most people just not realize that this isn't just a DLC episode but a flull-fledged game?

Anyway, this Thursday the first reviews are apparently going online. :D

Not getting? Its advertised everywhere I look.

I can't go on twitter or even my PS4 without Sony shoving an Ad down my throat lol. It's definitely being marketed, if you mean people not talking about it it's probably because its the same thing as Uncharted 4 or some just aren't interested that it isn't Drake I guess.

As far as I know, everyone knows this is a stand alone release if it wasn't it wouldn't have a physical disc.

I'm not getting those advertisements at all, but I was indeed talking about gamers not being particularly excited and discussing it, like they did with Uncharteds before. Just go over to Neogaf, there's hardly any talk about the game. If there's a new thread opened, like the one for the arrival of the press kits, the discussion immediately shifted towards press kits being bribery or not. Hardly anyone is talking about the actual game. Most Lost Legacy threads don't get much attention. Oftentimes people come in there to exclaim: "Huh, didn't know this was a stand alone game now. When did that happen?"

I've actually seen no advertisements for it anywhere lol so I don't know if that's just a Scotland thing? Either way I'm hyped though even if barely one else is! I won't be preordering but when it comes out I'll be there getting it! :D

Okay, the reviews are rolling in!

Many 10/10s and 9/10s. But also some 8/10 and 7/10s. I knew some would deduct points for being the "same old" great gameplay, even if many say it is actually improved over UC4. Better than just one year old UC4 (so you can't even argue it is just outdated by now) but significantly lower scores...yeah, right... >__>

Chloe by the way seems to have some kind of fad, lol.

What the hell lol! XD Does she just always have something in her eye or something? I'm flabbergasted tbh I have no explanation for this but I hope it doesn't affect her during gameplay since it would be pretty distracting. Also I've been looking at this and...where do they buy they're stuff? My crap's always getting ripped and torn and here they are getting shot at and falling off cliffs every 5 seconds and there's not a single tear in sight. Maybe they just have a tiny little sewing machine with them on retainer to patch up they're clothes. Also off topic but I'm hungry and I'm I want to get Indian food so that at least has something to do with this game. It better be nice and scrumptious though.

Another weirdly random post by Jade, lol.
I hope your Indian food was indeed "scrumptious"?

The weird faces are actually a feature that they added to photomode, similar to Horizon Zero Dawn. ;P

Sooo...if anyone wants to take a look at a good review without spoilering yourself too much, this one's a good pick:


I've watched several reviews now and thank God I didn't spoiler myself yet. I just have to watch those damn reviews for some reason. >__<

One thing that annoys me, is that most add Uncharted The Lost Legacy being Uncharted as a negative point, often deducting points fromt he score. :/
They even admit it is improved over UC4 and some actually call this the best Uncharted ever, but they still give it lower scores, simply because it doesn't reinvent the wheel. I find that a strange concept. It is exactly what it is supposed to be and they give it lower scores for that? UC4 has a Metacritic score of 93 and the apparently better The Lost Legacy stands at a 85 score now.

Now, don't get me wrong, I don't actually care what Metacritic score a game has. It has zero influence on the fun (or unfun) that I have with a game, but I find it unfair towards the creators of the game to judge them imo unfairly. I can relate because I work as a designer/artist too.

Interesting is that reviewers state very different amounts of time to finish the game. From just 6 hours to a whopping 15 hours, I've heard it all now. But I guess that is a good thing. There seems to be quite a bit of optional side content.
Jade will probabaly finish the game in 5 hours, while I will take 20 hours, including the time I will spend with the photo mode. ;)

Lol well I don't know why they choose that face for it then cause it looks really weird. And same tbh I find reviewers/critics incredibly annoying tbh and a lot of them seem to be really stupid. Taking points away for that seems dumb but what ever. And lol you already know that I will have a a post saying I've got the game and another post later that same day saying I've completed it. :p I'll be spending time doing side things and taking photo's though.

Here's a cool written (non-spoilery) review, that gives the game 5/5. Credit where credit is due.

If it was a Mario game they would've gave it a 10 out of 10 LOL.

Sadly they probably would've judging by the scores that LoZ: Breath of the Wild got.

I get the impression that a lot of peeps hate on Uncharted because it's part of the new-school "Cinematic" style games that place importance on narrative, cinematography, and story telling as opposed to just pure "gameplay". Basically it's one of the games at the forefront of the "Movie-style" games vs. "Old School" gameplay games, such as Mario or Zelda games (or Demon's Souls, Dark Souls or Nioh).

With that said, I have my pre-order down on The Lost Legacy and am pumped to play it next week! Chloe was sorely missed in 4 and look forward to joining her on her adventure!
