UNCHARTED 4: A Thief’s End starts off at a slow pace, and as someone new to the series, I initially wondered what all the hype was about. The early chapters, both in terms of story and setting, felt somewhat underwhelming. However, once Nathan reached Madagascar, I was completely hooked. The breathtaking locations, compelling narrative, and outstanding performances truly brought the game to life. The dynamic between Nathan and Sam was fantastic, filled with witty and natural banter. One of my favorite moments was Nathan and Elena’s playful exchange while playing Crash Bandicoot. This was a perfectly written scene that, like many others in the game, captured the characters’ depth and charm. The story of Nathan Drake concluded in a way that felt truly fitting.

UNCHARTED: The Lost Legacy, on the other hand, wastes no time jumping into the action. From bustling market streets to the shadowy alleys of a war-torn city to the stunning mountains of India, every location is visually striking and expertly designed. The writing and performances are once again top tier and playing as the impulsive and quick witted Chloe Frazer was an absolute joy. Her interactions with Nadine are brilliantly written, and their banter only gets better when a third character joins the mix. The game’s climax is exhilarating, delivering a cinematic action sequence that rivals any Hollywood blockbuster.

Diving into the world of UNCHARTED has been an incredible experience, and I couldn’t be happier that I finally took the plunge.
