Does Uncharted 4 Still Hold Up? | 7 Years Later Review

- Uncharted 4: A Thief's End is seven years, as of this upload. When it came out, it was met with raving reviews and sold millions of copies, which I thought was well deserved because I loved it back in 2016. But, seven years later, do I still enjoy it, after having replayed the others?

#uncharted Игры
There might be an abundance of walking simulator moments in Uncharted 4. But playing out that Madagascar jeep chase and exploring Libertalia are some of my favorite gaming memories to date. The in-universe Crash Bandicoot and Monkey Island references were a blast as well.
it just takes soooo long to get going like multiple hours. druckman thinking he's making a deep character study.
@@whodatninja439 Yeah, Uncharted as a whole is the most overrated game series of all time. Never understood the hype.
@@megaman15ish Here's some knowledge for your pea brain, then.
First off, the Gameplay as a whole! The way you can interact with the environment, the combat itself and other Gameplay elements.
The landscapes in every single level are just PERFECT, even if you"re in the Middle of the jungle, there is always so much detail.
The stories, every single Uncharted story is so enjoyable, an Adventure with lots of twist and There's usually a lesson learned in every game
Is that enough for you?
@@simaopinto8521 When I play a game, I want to play a game. Not watch a shitty interactive movie. The stories aren't even all that great to begin with. It's just modern Indiana Jones with shitty Reddit tier humor.
@simao pinto Also, why even go out of your way to insult my intelligence just because I don't like something you do? You know now childish you sound saying I have a pea brain? This is why I hate Naughty Dog fanboys. You guys are some of the most toxic and arrogant people in the gaming community.
I’ll never forget first playing and beating it. Man, 7 years… thanks for making me feel old
Jesus its been 7 years already? Ive completely wasted my life. 😢
Same
I’ll double down on that statement
lmfao same, I remember playing uc4 multiplayer back in 2016-17 and I was 11
my 11yo self didn't know how bad everything would get 🔥🔥🔥
@@paintsniffer401Bro you still young af lol just get out and start making changes now before it’s too late if you don’t like the way your lifes goin
Join the club
Uncharted 4 is one those games you can truly say is one of the highest notes a critically acclaimed game series can end on. Seriously, it has it all; the characters, emotion, visuals, gameplay, story, and important: heart. ND really poured all they had into this one, they knew it was the end for Uncharted, but damn, this was one hell of a bang to go out on! Keep up the amazing work ND, you too J.
They didn't go out on Uncharted 4 tho. They did with Lost Legacy.
@raresmacovei8382 Nobody cares about that game, therefore it didn't.
The voice actor of Sully actually commented on Amy's departure in an Interview a year or so ago. According to him, Amy was let go out of the blue with only a vague sense of "some sort of internal mechanism going on behind the scenes", and many of the actors came together and discussed leaving the project as well. They did not do so because Amy advised them to stay with it.
The reason so many link Neil Druckmann to this "behind-the-scenes" comment is a statement from writer/director Joe Cornish who was once slated to direct an Uncharted movie and was interviewed about the project after he had met Amy. After first forgetting about his name, he called Neil Druckmann a jerk-off in a throw away comment and accused him of "kind of" stealing credit for the Uncharted franchise. He als said "...there was a bit of saboteuring there going on with Naughty Dog."
Perhaps Amy told him something, perhaps he got a bad first impression of Neil and the situation back at the time and decided to write his own premature plot about all of it.
I don't know. I just wanted to note why people speculate.
I remember seeing my brother play this game on a projector and being blown away by the visuals; I thought to myself "They look like real people, it's amazing how far graphics have come in games". I haven't played the game, but it looks awesome. ❤
The best part of Uncharted 4 was the ragdoll physics.
Also Sam saying: "OH SHT, NATHAN!" when you die lol.
HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A BANDICOOT.... NO BUT IM SURE THEY DONT WEAR SNEAKERS. 😂😂😂😂😂
Every now and then I get the itch in the back of my mind that goes "I need the adrenaline rush that is Uncharted" and before this game I would respond with "Yeah that would be great" but with the story and most importantly Nate's Arc that comes in this game, I now think of Nate's arc and think that it deserves to be over
Damn, time flies... :(
7 years have passed, just with a blink of an eye
My favorite moment of Uncharted 4 was Elena and Nathan just driving and talking right after she came to his rescue.
I may have only played Uncharted 4 once, but it's one of my favorite games of all time.
That was one of the most mundane and drawn out sequences tho lol. Whatever rocks the boat i guess
That part has great emotion in it and the piano song behind them when you first drive is perfect. Love that part!
I finished uncharted 4 a few days ago and it was amazing. One of my favourite games
(Although I slightly prefer 2 it was very close and could really go either way)
ive played it 5 times
Well I vice versa but hey I think 2 is still deserve to remembered to be one of the most iconic improved sequels of all time
@@theenderkirby Fair point
One of the things I liked about this game was how it was a combination of the weather themes from the previous games. You spend time in Scotland, a snowy climate like in Uncharted 2, Madagascar, a hot dessert like in Uncharted 3, and Libertalia being in a jungle island like in Uncharted 1.
I just got the platinum trophies for every Uncharted game even Golden Abyss on the Vita and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It’s been fun to see your take on these games whilst they are so fresh in my memory so bring on the Lost Legacy review can’t wait.
They went all in with this game and went out with a bang. It's cool how they took everything they learned from the last 3 Uncharted games to make this finale grand.
This game is really something special. Growing up playing the Uncharted games and loving them, then being fully prepared for a sequel, only to have it fully deliver on literally every single aspect and be incredible. I will always love this game and cannot ever say I have been this excited and proud about a game.
I'm so happy youre going to do the next game, and excited since you get to play it for the first time!
I got the first three Uncharted games as a Christmas gift, but after playing a little ways through the first one, I just never ended up coming back to them. When I bought a PS4 though, Uncharted 4 was included with it so I decided to give the series another shot. I'm really glad I did, because this game held my attention all throughout and I enjoyed playing through the other three games afterwards, especially Uncharted 2! This is easily in the top 5 for best looking PS4 games, if not THE best (pre-dating The Last of Us Part 2)!
Fun fact: One of my relatives actually spent an hour trying to beat the high score on the Crash Bandicoot mini game (the second time at the end of the game), and they grew up playing the original; the devs clearly managed to keep the challenge intact lol!
Great video as always, J! 👍
This game holds a special place in my life. Not only was the PS4 the first game i fully bought on my own, but it was also the first bundle pack.
And man did i have a blast when i first experienced it, still enjoy it to this day for multiple playthroughs.
7 years ago the greatest video game of all released to the world
Don't you mean seven years and three months?
I remembered uncharted 4 as the game the brought me into uncharted in general, I remember get it the year it came out with a ps4 slim on Christmas and beating it in a week. I’ve played it so many times I could write an essay on it. Uncharted 4 will go down as one of my favorite games and game series ever
The one thing that disappointed me with Uncharted 4 was the lack of the supernatural finale like the previous games. It would have been awesome had the pirates come back to life as zombie pirates or something with the final boss being a zombified Avery.
honestly preferred a more grounded finale for the final game.
Love your videos J you’re the best
The overall graphics, traversal animations and general attention to detail of this game is CLEARLY much more advanced and ambitious than the vast majority of big game releases of today. I wish more games had as much funding, time, talent, dedication and AMBITION as this game.
Loved these uncharted reviews :)
This has been excellent J!
Was waiting for this one eagerly ❤️❤️❤️❤️👑
I wish more series would let the characters take a sec to just chill and talk from time to time. It.really does wonders
Took me multiple videos to realize the the "Green thing" on the video and channel icon is a "J" and not a crooked checkmark.
My all time favourite Uncharted. I didn’t mind the walking simulator nature of it, The characters and story keep me going and the combat is so much fun, especially the Lost Legacy dlc.
I actually love Lost Legacy, it's my personal favorite as an experience. Hope u enjoy it, even if it's not as grand.
So, the real treasure was all the friends we made along the way?
Great video, this is my favorite uncharted, not because was the first i played, but because is the only one with auto-aim, that made the combat much more dinamic and enjoyable for me.
I'd love a 5th uncharted with nates daughter as the protagonist
As PC gamer, this is my first foray into Uncharted and I honestly love it. Its exhilaratingly fun, fast paced with decent exploration, graphics and animation with very nicely knitted story.
still my favorite game of the series. im replaying it this week on ps5 60fps update is amzing
Another great review thanks
This game was the first game on PS4 where I went “wow this is next Gen”
fun fact, in chapter 11 if you walk into the immigration checkpoint Nate will namedrop Arstozka the setting of an indie game called Papers Please made by one of the series former developers
A coupe of months ago I played the PC version. Uncharted 4 was pretty much my introduction to the series since I never had a PS3 or 4. I was very impress how well this game looks. I know they improved characters models for the PC port but still, for a PS4 game is quite impressive.
Uncharted 4 was the first game that made me sit and watch all the outro after ending and crying while analyzing everything happened in the game and going through my own processing of saying goodbye to such fantastic story since Mafia 2, this game just had everything.
Great review
This is how you do a conclusion.
I feel so old T-T
2016 is a year I will never forget
I've played this game a good amount of times. I got the game for Christmas since it was a bundle with the ps4 I got. I eventually platinumed the game two years ago and I have nearly 200 hours for the ps4 version and as of today I got the ps5 upgrade and my god it looks amazing. Time for platinum 2. This is probably my favourite of the franchise and my favourite game of all time, dethroning the gears of war games. I just like the story for the game, it's fun, the emotion is there, and well the sequences where it's a normal life. Besides a normal and epilogue, my favourite chapter is probably at sea. It's such a relaxing mission and the chapter itself looks amazing. The water, dark clouds, green areas that stick out, almost everything
The only thing I wish they hadn’t done was getting rid of the triangle counter. It made me feel like I was crazy for remembering that countering was a thing in Uncharted 3
Playing for the second time right now, love the pirate and stuff story.
Uncharted 4 Is a Masterpiece
at the time, i wished we couldve seen amy hennig's uncharted 4. it was her baby after all.
My favourite moment is probably when they first get into Libertalia itself, when they just take a seat in that old bar, just taking a break, no enemies in sight, I mean just their realization that this was a genuine pirate colony where the pirates retired to, these ruins still standing after centuries of disuse. Seeing what happened to the colonists was heartbreaking, people like to romanticize pirates, but at the end of the day, pirates are still the bad guys, their greed was always going to get the better of them. One thing I like is that it's never actually explained whether the pirate lords always intended to rob the colonists, or if they just wanted to recoup their losses after spending so much money building up the colony and setting up all the challenges along the drake's journey. Or even if they just got greedy after seeing how much money the pirates had gathered when they got to Libertalia.
Still waiting for uncharted karting
This was the game i bought my ps4 with. What an experience
One of my favorite games ❤
This game still looks next gen
You want to talk about feeling old, I remember when the ads for the ps2 itself were running on tv. Let alone a few of the commercials for the main three you've coveree before.
Dude you have no idea... When I inserted The Last Of Us disc into my OG fat PS3 on launch day it literally sounded like a jet engine and overheated the console before the menu even loaded.
7 years ago?
I have aged 10 years in that timespan but even so it kind of seems like only 4 years went by.
Very fitting since i just started playing the remastered PS5 version of Uncharted 4. The graphics on the PS4 was phenomenal but on the PS5 it looks even better considering it was cutting edge on the PS4 at the time till TLOU2 blew it out the water visually.
today i went to play uncharted 4 and i was in apologo and in that part where sam fixes the boat and nathan goes back to driving me from there the game doesn't advance. I mean go ahead but after that part of Sam fixing the boat when I go back to driving with Nathan normally some stones would appear and the boat would be pushed by another one in flames. But I went to play and none of that appeared and I was always stuck in that part of the apologo. Does anyone know what is going on
You know that you can Nathan can shoot his gun while swinging with his grappling hook.
bring back the tissue box
Like the Jak series, with how accessible these games still are, I honestly don't mind the series being over
I was there when the Atari console hit the markets, and people went friggin' crazy! Over the following decades, while not a 'Gamer,' I've always been in awe at how graphics have become so damned life-like now! It's incredible, and with my consoles/PC, I'm finally getting into it. Wonderful 'Review' of an amazing game! Thank you!!
After witnessing my brother playing these and watching these reviews, note to self, play these four games especially the fourth
is this what it feels like to be old?
new video lets goooo
Finished Lost Legacy recently for the first time. Was very, pleasantly surprised
This why I will never want an Uncharted 5. A Thief's End as literally the perfect ending
Man, I would love to play the mulitplayer again. Aren't the servers dead though?
Can't decide on which Uncharted is the goat. Uncharted 2 or Uncharted 4. I'll say this tho, Rafe Adler is the greatest Uncharted villain. The "come on legend yaah"! Greatest line in history 😂😂
17:08 Super factual
Uncharted 2 was great, and my first Uncharted love but I will always consider Uncharted 4 to be my favorite. It is still one of the best looking games I have played, and looks even better on PS5!
The platforming had some great edge-of-my-seat moments, and gameplay in new games hasn't made me feel that way in a long time. Great game, but I think it might have went on just a bit too long and the shooting mechanics get a bit dull over time.
Bro i was just on a marathon on your videos and you just dropped this lmao.
I first played this game very shortly after it came out. That weekend I went to a friend's place. I think we ordered pizza like we did pretty much every time I went there. I was more experienced as a gamer so I would play and she watched. We were both fans of the previous Uncharted games and so we were hooked right from the start. Needless to say, that was a good time we shared. I still hold this game very close to my heart, and it's so crazy that it's really been seven years.
I hope we get a game with Nate’s daughter as the protagonist
This series of reviews started making me play Uncharted all the way through and I can't agree more. This game, oh my god this game. Indiana Jones can eat his heart out. I fucking love Naughty Dog so much and while TLOU is great, I actually liked this game more.
Sweet, a new That Boy Aqua video lol
Ah, I'm just kidding J
This is such an icionic Franchise
I love the charatchers the vioce actors everything. I like 4 takes a little slower pace really let you know where Nate is now in his life having setteld down with Elena but you can see he still yarns for the Adventure then San comes back into his life. Rafe is also my fave Uncharted villain
Please at least briefly talk about the Nathan Fillion Uncharted fan film and the Tom Holland Uncharted movie at the end of the Lost Legacy video.
It’s so weird that you mentioned you played it once and didn’t pick it back up, despite saying it was your favorite. I had a very similar experience. I platinum-ed every game in the series… except 4. I’m curious as to why that is.
I'd imagine because 4 is more reliant on its story than previous installments which is felt in gameplay
@@The810kid granted, but generally story is what keeps me coming back to a game rather than gameplay.
@@ktshipman21 Yeah but story becomes a drag if you're trying to get a platinum. If you're trying to play on Crushing or mop up treasures, the last thing you (or at least I) want to do is go through all the slower moments again. Oh man pushing this crate is so much harder on Crushing. Climbing this wall is so much harder on Crushing. And so on. It was already kind of a drag to have to redo all those parts that don't change in 1-3, but 4 has so many more of them and they're all so much longer.
@@mjc0961 that’s a fair point. And maybe that’s the answer. But part of me wonders if it’s fatigue, somehow. This game had a lot more action set pieces than previous games, and I wonder if after playing it, I just felt like it would be too much of an emotional investment
I hope that the original uncharted 4 story gets leaked one day. I think Sam would be a much better villain than the spoiled rich brat
I just played this game for the first time its still a 10
This came out 7 years ago wtf??? I just finished the Uncharted collection and started 4, and man the quality does not feel like a 7 year drop
first ever video game to ever make me fun, imo the best Uncharted game :}
Wow this game turns 8 today didn’t even realise
7 years…I feel old
While this game is unmistakably Uncharted and the definitive finale to Nate’s story, this game is also kind of a spiritual follow up to The Last of Us
Everytime you say your old it makes me feel old cause your not old 😂 I was out of high school for 7 years when you were in middle school
I platinumed the legacy of thieves collection and can confidently say I wanna do it again on the ps4 games uncharted is literally 1 of 2 game series I can play multiple times back to back the only other one is insomniac Spider-Man
I have only played through this game once, but it was very memorable to me. I think at that point, I was a little burnt out of Uncharted. I do need to play through it again sometime. It was a good story, but I did not like Nadine. I feel like she should've gotten some kind of comeuppance, but never did, at least in this game. She was annoyingly strong, in a way that didn't feel earned. So because of her and the fact that you use Chloe, who I also wasn't a big fan of and the fact that I was a little burnt out, I still have yet to play The Lost Legacy. But yeah, Uncharted 4 was a good game. I'd have to replay it to see how it compares to Uncharted 2 for me.
From 1 to 4 is great ******♡♡
This game gets better the older I get
Will you review the batman arkham games?
Please do lost legacy next
When I saw "Uncharted 4, 7 years later" I was like, he means Uncharted 2, right? RIGHT?
I rank UC2 number one, with this a close second. My only real complaint were those contrived fights with Nadine. Otherwise I loved it.
Jedi Fallen Order and Jedi Survivor actually does what Uncharted for does but without being boring.
18:17 I am definitely doing that with my Wife just saying, but man Uncharted 4. The game that told me to get a History Degree
Uncharted made me think about Nate and Elena’s relationship because there’s not many games that come close to or top that relationship in gaming.
To the fans of this channel or viewers of this video
Have a Fantastic life
I may not know you but I wish you the best
8:00 my original 500gb ps4 trying to run re2 remake
Could've done without the girl boss fights with Nadine, but other than that, it was a good game.
