Despite a
small number of issues, I thoroughly enjoyed Uncharted 4, and the announcement
that it was going to get a single-player expansion was exciting. But I
dismissed it as a 3-4 hour experience and decided to buy the expansion
separately as opposed to buying the season pass and paying for the multiplayer
stuff I’m not interested in. A decision I would later come to regret when the
expansion became longer and the individual price came out at £25, cheap for a
standalone title, which it ultimately is, although about half the length of a
usual Uncharted game.
What’s more
interesting is their choice of protagonists, Nathan’s story is done, there’s
little story left to tell for him, a lot of fans thought they might go for a
Sam Drake/Sully story, and whilst that would be cool, there was a character I
personally wish had some screen time in Uncharted 4 because she’s that awesome.
This is
Chloe Frazer, she’s tough, she takes no sh*t and she’s badass, but has a sense
of humour. She’s smart and can be manipulative to get what she wants, but she’s
willing to walk away if the risk is too great. Chloe is a well-defined and
interesting character and who better to partner her up with than the person who
last time I complained was neither of these things, Nadine Ross? Can being a
treasure hunter help her character get some much-needed development?
Well, here’s
how I rated Uncharted: Lost Legacy
