It's not. Uncharted 4 is / was overwhelmingly adored by criticas and fans, and sold very well. It's only "divisive" to the small, vocal minority of Naughty Dog fans who don't like Uncharted 4 was a more mature departure from the original Uncharted trilogies' more Pulpy Action-Adventure roots, and that Nate got his ass handed to him by Nadine. Uncoincidentally, I'd wager the Venn Diagram of fans who found Uncharted 4 divisive are the same knuckledragger man-babies who shit on TLOU2.

It was only divisive to hardcore fans. Uncharted 4 has a noticeably different tone then the trilogy. And for me personally I don't like how there are no supernatural elements as in the others.

What I loved about Rafe as a villain was that he was the complete polar opposite to Nate himself. Where Nate’s had to fight for everything he’s ever had in life, Rafe didn’t need to because of his family’s wealth. Rafe believed that he’d never really achieved anything in his life and that finding Avery’s treasure was the solution, which eventually led to his descent into madness (trying to kill Nate and rambling about Nate’s previous adventures) and then to his death.

I would have loved that turn to the story since I freaking loved Rafe as a character. His acceptance would have made him a mature person who accepts his flaws and gives the stage to the more deserving person.

I tried playing the chloe and... forgetful character number 2's game, but its just boring. They were designed to be side characters who assist in expanding Nates character, on their own they can't hold a game, especially since from what I played, they had no growth or actual character arc. It would have been cool to see chloe figure out she doesn't have to out perform everyone around her to be seen as a worthy equal or gifted archaeologist, and it would have been really nice to see the other one realise not everything needs to be a fight. Like I said, I only played about half the game, so I don't know what the later late game was like, but I saw no hint in character growth.

Yea I think that applies especially to Sully. At least for Nate you could argue that he didn’t really care if the story was real because he just wanted another adventure with his brother, so he neglected fact checking. Maybe Sully had other motivations that made him more trusting, but the game doesn’t mention it (I don’t think).

@redturn133

Sully was definitely suspicious of Sam especially after the auction heist but he lets Sam slide because Sully is just happy to be back in the game same with how Nate is happy to be back trying experience the thrill of adventure/finding treasure once more (it was an excuse), so you could say that they were both blinded by treasure and fortune and Nate specifically was also blinded by guilt from not being able to help his brother during the time he was locked away.

Personally, this is my favourite game of all time. I can play it endlessly and I think it’s pretty much flawless, although if I’m nitpicking there are a couple of sections that aren’t necessarily the most fun to replay in my opinion. Apart from that I think, at least in my opinion, it’s the most perfect a game can be. I love everything about it as it even manages to make the most boring missions pretty entertaining, even if they’re not the most enthralling. Great video as always dude!

I love that the “whistle” is kinda like a Siren’s song, drawing Nate’s attention into the allure of adventure and the unknown

Uncharted's soundtrack will forever be burned into my memory, it's so simplistic, yet feels so enlightening to listen to

I don't know if people really care about this, but one of my favourite things about these games is how good the acting and the writing is. Listening characters talk to each other is SOOO entertaining and the performances are so realistic that they make me forget this game has a script.

I was just watching this video this morning when it was first uploaded, but it was titled: “Uncharted 4: 6 Years Later” What happened??? Since when is this the most device installment? I thought it was the strongest in the series and one of the best finales in gaming history. [SPOILERS] I cried like a baby when Cassie was introduced. It really was coming to a close and all the memories of the series came flooding back.

It still is to me one of the best Playstation games I've ever got to experience and just growing thru the franchise to see the final chapter be a true homage and treasure in respect to the legacy of Drake, Sully and Elena thru the story. Narratively, musically, visually and emotionally it hits right in the core and I felt that again after replaying. Thanks for this vid Aqua

It was supernatural but that was changed due to success of the last of us's more toned down and grounded approach they removed the dijnn but it' made the plot incoherent

With the nadin thing in lost legacy she says she was born in shoreline meaning they trained the second she was old enough

Honestly, I think this game was the greatest in the entire series. It isn't perfect, but it's good. I love playing the game, and each replay of the game felt special, no matter how many times I'd play it. And I love Nate's slowly changing addiction to treasure. He has an obsession with treasure at first, but when Elena leaves him, it's a bit shifted. He still has the obsession, but he feels ashamed of driving his wife away. But once the truth is revealed about Sam and his Alcazar story, and once Elena comes to save him, he starts caring a bit less about treasure. And when Nate finally gains the guts to apologize, Elena says she forgives him. And that's when Nate's obsession is drained out with care for family. He just wants to get his brother back. Speaking of his brother... Sam's obsession is a bit more major than Nate's, and that's what I like about him. Sure, his nose may be bleeding, he might have a bullet wound, but that doesn't stop him. He will put his life on the line, JUST so he could get an inch closer to fortune. And when the gang is back together, he still wants to go in the mountain, but everyone, even Nate, argues against him. But that doesn't change anything. Sam decieves them, and tries to go for the treasure himself. Even in Avery's burning ship, he manages to grab a couple gold coins to bring back home. And finally, he changes his mind about leading a normal life. He was very skeptical at first. Once he and Nate get to Libertallia, he even says on the chairs that the normal life isn't for him. But, a gear is finally put in place, and he decides that going for a normal life might not be such a bad idea. Also, I wish they'd bring Donut Drake back.

Your video made me seriously look over the entire series & my viewpoint on Uncharted 4 in general in a more positive light! It felt off the first time playing it & I was having a fun time, but at the same time there was a disconnect between myself & the game's combat with the different mechanics thrown in, like the verticality & the grappling hook. But the more you told about how the game's mechanics worked, the more I realized how intricate it all is & to give it a second look through to experiment more on how to approach how to play it. This was a wonderfully made video & I applaud you greatly, sir!😻

What a great game. My favorite in the series by far. Aside from the Nate/Elena relationship strain getting a little old on the fourth go, I think this was the perfect swansong for the series. Thanks for the video!

This game has stuck with me throughout my years and it’s in my top 5 games of all time. Such a great game and a perfect ending for Nathan Drake

You really captured the complex melancholy and inner conflict of the opening “at home”sections in this analysis. There’s something about that sequence that brings out a ton of emotion in me, and I’m glad I’m not the only one. It’s so carefully crafted.

Man, I just wanted to see some footage of the game again after all these years. Wasn't in the least ready for such a deep introspective analysis.. six minutes in and I'm already having an existential moment

I actually will debate you that Rafe's story while not the center of attention for the story is more than prevalent enough in every scene he is in and every line of dialogue we hear from him. He has had everything in his life handed to him, it's hinted at by Sully when he says something along the lines of "Running your parents company" and Safe corrects hims stating "My Company" the reason he wants the treasure so badly is because he wants to be remembered by for his own accomplishments which he continually is not remembered or known for. This fear of being remembered as the rich kid who bought everything and had everything given to him is what drives him. It's why he rants at Nate saying "Nathan Drake raced a mad man and his entire army to the steps of shambhala, Nathan Drake found a lost city in the middle of the Rub Al-Kahli desert, Nathan Drake discovered the Fabled El Dorado." This isn't done simply to reference Nates previous adventures it's to tie together that they made Race the exact opposite of Nathan. Orphan Rich boy who was handed everything his entire life VS the Poor Orphan who had to work his entire life to become the legend he is known as. Rate like most doesn't believe Nate actually found those things but it will go down by many that that's who Nathan is and Race didn't want him to be the one who discovered Avery's treasure he wanted it to be him. And of course in the end everything is handed to him by Nate and Sam. Even his death is handed to him as Nate lets Rafes own greed for the treasure and glory kill him.

Uncharted 4 is a masterpiece.

YASS. MY BOY FINALLY DID IT. I've been waiting for this for so long bro. Ur vids are gold, I'm gonna enjoy this one

Thank you for your insights! I was thinking recently a lot about story theme is something like: love versus obsession. And story making definitions: love is about care, trust and respect, it’s requires healthy balanced approach. while obsession is unbalance selfish, alienating and distructive, caused harm and disorder. So hero managed to find love and get his brother out of his obsession, which also reminds plot of helping relative with distructive addiction.

I witnessed every title change this video had

Hands down my favorite one, it made me finally care about the characters and retroactively like the other games more.

I only ever got to play uncharted 1-4 in 2019, all 4 back to back made me experience everything in such a short time I cant even understand how some people played the first one then waited all the time to get to 4. Truly a beautiful series and something I want everyone to play.

Nice dude, I’ve been looking forward to a modern uc4 review

I thought Uncharted 4 was on par with 2 and I absolutely loved it

I fuckin love uncharted 4. Its just hard watching the Nadine fight after this guy bodied a a bodybuilder on magic steroids. But can't complain when there's all those shiny collectibles to pick up.

Thanks for an interesting video essay about the game! I was glued to my sofa the moment I started playing this game. It was truly awesome to see the end of Drake’s story. There was, however, one thing that I have to comment on. When you say fauna (the animal kingdom) you surely mean flora (the plants)?

I’m gonna be honest, I was shocked when you kept mentioning that you thought the boss fight was underwhelming. I dislike all gun fight boss fights in any video game. I think 4’s boss fight was perfect, melee battles are the most personal way to end a villain and hero’s fight. I also liked that it was fast pace and had cool mechanics of skin and clothes being cut. It also did have that cool contrast as you stated with how thieves and pirates used to fight. I was hyped the entire battle about how great it was for the story to end with that fight. I do wish it had been like the concept art though (Nate and Rafe fighting ontop of the pirate ship instead of inside) the only time I’ve seen a boss fight like that done horribly was last of us 2. Anyways, great video! Love the points you made! I also agree about the Nadine situation. Great stuff!

I love that game. That was a great video!

Even the "Lure of adventure" music from the Uncharted 4 soundtrack has that very same whistle. Lure of adventure clearly meaning the attractive and hard to resist quality of adventure. I listen to the soundtrack everyday and Uncharted 4 is my favourite in the series.

I am a player that usually skips all dialogue and optional interactions, but this game makes you want to do those at every opportunity and I love it.

My problem with Nadine has nothing to do with her being a "Mary Sue" or "politics" or any of that shit. I just don't like her for the sole reason that she's dull. Her personality is overly edgy, a no-nonsense tough girl mercenary, and she doesn't have a satisfying character arc. If she were just an antagonist, this would be ok, but she's clearly being set up as the next Uncharted protagonist, and Lost Legacy proves how she doesn't work for that.

Uncharted 4 was my first playstation games. So it had a special place in my heart. It has a good multiplayer that was fun and engaging and basically had my favorite game modes also it had an awesome rank system that they sadly dropped. I feel like it's weird that they went for a more mature story by not adding any crazy creatures or the fact that the Style was way too different from how the plot was made.

Just played this game on PC and it blew my damn mind. Having grown up with the first 3 on PS3 it really blew me away how much they packed into this game.

In 4 you have a similar mechanic to thief vision where you can mark enemies you can see by aiming at them and pressing a button. When they go behind cover you can see a white outline.

Uncharted 4 and The Lost legacy both left me with 2 big issues. 1) The melee combat was jarringly poor compared to the rest of the excellent gameplay. 2) It ended, my biggest problem was that there wasn’t more and no other game could itch the same spot. I really hope they eventually go through with the Sam/Sully game they teased at the end

I've never heard anyone ever say uncharted 4 was terrible and ruined the franchise until right now

I literally played this game like 3 years ago but got stuck at one part when I forgot how to climb up the rope (I know Im so fucking dumb) and before 2 months I decided to finish it and I remembered what thrill I experienced while playing I finished the game without hesitation. It was also my first game I ever played after getting the ps4 and the feeling to just go back to it was amazing. Personally I think this is one of the best games in the new generation. Thank you Naughty dog for delivering such a masterpiece to us. Thank you!

I have a personal connection to the theme of uncharted 4 because of the games which is beautiful. I wanted to play uncharted 4 almost immediately after uncharted 3 for "just one last ride" and just was not satisfied with the concept of Nate going to get married and living a normal life. Nates fate is exactly that and he too is unsatisfied with it but through the game I learn with nate that maybe a happy ending is enough and there doesnt need to be another go round and to be true... I'm at the same point as Nate, I'm going to be playing lost legacy to have another adventure but I'm really happy that Nate's legend has finally had an ending so like nate, a nice mix between the ending and the adventure

first time seeing one of your videos, just wanted to say; absolutely LOVE how you approached and handled the "CoNtRoVeRsY" surrounding Nadine. it's always been a ridiculous thing listening to people criticisms of her and has never ever felt genuine, and i loved how you handled it as i feel you were perfectly spot on as well as well spoken, bloody well done

Funnily enough, I loved the hell out of the original 3 for its fun....and this is my favorite one by far. I love this game. I love it to death.

Idk if anyone remembers the original E3 Uncharted 4 trailer, but I remember someone observing how much it resembles the intro to Crash Bandicoot’s N. Sanity Beach level. That was always a great easter egg highlighting how far Naughty Dog had come. Well that and the in-universe Monkey Island references.

I've played the shit outta these games and never consciously noticed that whistle. Very cool Great video essay. Earned my sub.

This game is still to this day my personal favorite game of all time and I somehow managed to miss all of that Nadine discussion as I’d never heard anyone say that about her or those scenes until now and I hadn’t realized how polarizing parts of this game was to the fan base as I’d only ever heard positives from people in regards to the game both in person and online. I personally didn’t feel the absence of the suppressed weapons as intensely as you did nor the absence of the skin differences as I personally don’t use them for very long or that often in the past games and I felt the stealth options in the game left me more than enough avenues for varying gameplay that I didn’t feel I needed a suppressor but it definitely would’ve come in handy in the later Libertalia flooded mansions stealth sections and the section along the cliffed coast before reaching Libertalia especially on Crushing difficulty. In regards to Rafe, I personally felt that he is one of the more fleshed out villains in the franchise, if not the most fleshed out, and that his fight was more engaging to me than past ones in the franchise as well as the theme of betrayal with him being a nice narrative touch where he puts so much emphasis on trust and betrayal that he views Nate as the person who betrayed him (and Sam too for that matter) and that Nate was able to do everything he couldn’t so he feels spurned by the ever mounting feeling of betrayal and his own inadequacy. The parallels are also interesting with Rafe saying to Nate “Nate, he’s gone” when Sam “dies” in the prison and Nate says “Rafe, she’s gone” when Nadine leaves Nate, Rafe, and Sam to die on the burning ship. Rafe says how he never felt anything was earned and Nate managed to do the one thing Rafe couldn’t five times over and Nate arguably gave him his personal biggest betrayal when they had their falling out and Sam betrayed him by working with Nate and Sully while Rafe says how he doesn’t betray his partners in regards to Nadine and how he got Nadine’s men betray her but his reason was so she didn’t leave and betray him (which still happened anyway) and it’s a theme that is used with him a lot throughout the game. Rafe gives Nate “one last chance to walk away” in the Madagascar clock tower section and we’ll never know if he truly would’ve done that or tried to track him down to kill him after his Libertalia treasure hunt ended or not but it added an interesting discussion for his character to me given how quickly he kills the main guard in the jail in the beginning of the game (which is also ironically what led to Nate betraying him coupled with Sam’s “death” as he couldn’t trust him and viewed him as a sociopath.) Nate is everything that Rafe isn’t in that his desire to find the treasure faded before reaching it and he also has a fulfilled life and people to share it with whereas Rafe was an heir to an inheritance who seemingly has no one else but his business partners and hired help so for him to lose them all because they all betrayed him at separate times meant that Rafe ended up with no one right before his obsession to kill Nate got him killed as despite everything, Nate was content to leave the treasure for him and only wanted to get himself and Sam out of the burning ship where Rafe’s obsession was split between the treasure and killing Nate as he spent a significant amount of time racing him to it and his initial betrayal of leaving him to find the treasure alone. Rafe dedicated his entire life in pursuit of one treasure and Nate gave up on that treasure and managed to find four others on his own and Rafe still couldn’t even find his one without the help of one of both Drake’s. In my opinion he’s the most fleshed out or developed Uncharted villain with the only other villain who hates Nate as intensely being Lazarovich but most of the others don’t necessarily hate Nate as an individual but more what he represents such as Eddy or Roman or arguably even Marlowe. On a different and unrelated note, the multiplayer was also amazing to me and is one of the more memorable competitive multiplayer modes I’ve played and the survivals were fun challenges.
