Thread: Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection announced for PS5 & PC
Kinda bummed it's only 4 and LL and not including the trilogy. Would have love to replay all the games on PC again like Halo MCC, but only 4 and LL is going to be a pass for me. I guess I can always replay all the games on PS5
 
We will get the original games as long as this sells well (it will).

Its The Last of Us Part 1 that is the biggest question mark, considering they are doing a remake.

I was really surprised they dropped the P-word during the Stream. kind of curious to see how this goes for them. I dare say that there will be a lot of people who would enjoy picking them up on PC.

Gunplay with MKB with high fps will make the combat so much more enjoyable. Like the 60fps mp mode, which played great.

But no way I'm replaying these games.
 
Not offering the original trilogy on PC is a dumb decision in my opinion. Uncharted games were always strong on characters and especially Nate & Elena's relationship has evolved over the course of all four games.

I think that UC4 still can be enjoyed on it's own without having played the other games. They even introduce a brother who did not exist before in any way.

I remember sitting there wondering if he was in a previous game and I just didn't remember or something. I was kinda confused.

I've played all of the Uncharted games, but played them as they released so if he was in the first or second, it wouldn't have been crazy to have forgotten. Then I find out they just created him out of nowhere for this lol

Yeah tv shows do that shit all the time. It wasn't ideal but if you have to do it retro actively this is the way to do it IMO.

The release date is pretty far off. They might still announce it and drop it before the PS4 games release.
 
Worst case scenario will be its a Yakuza situation where it comes later IMO. Only slight doubt is maybe Sony considers them too "old".. which I'd seriously disagree with. Every entry is a 9/10 at the very least IMO.

EDIT: @and 3 others The Last of Us remake was originally been done by Sony Bend but is now been brought in house at Naughty Dog. I've never said this about any game.. but it really doesn't need a remake. Sure we will lose good bits from the original, its like someone messing with the original Star Wars :(

They might consider them too old to promote in this show.

Yeah you'd think there would be a blog post shortly after if it was to be released before Uncharted 4. A "complete" Uncharted experience would be more marketable.

I'm not saying it's unplayable because of the missing games, but it would be nice for people to have a chance to follow the entire story and meet everyone before the events of UC4. Uncharted relies much more on characters and continuity than Tomb Raider (2013+) where I didn't really care about Lara's sidekicks.

By the way, just realized the movie has a release date and it's February 18, 2022. I'd bet this collection will come out at the same time. They might actually drop this as a tie-in and not bother with original trilogy. But I hope not.

It's a little dissapointing the PC version is out "shortly" after the PS5 version with so much advanced warning to work on a simultaneous release.

Lost legacy is without doubt the worst uncharted game.

Part 4 still looks great I can't imagine this does much to make it worth my time to double dip unless I'm on a new pc by then. Actually even then why would I spend full price for this? I own both games on my PS5 anyways.

I'm glad it's getting ported I want the novelty to wear off I want these games to feel as antiquated to people as crash bandicoot does now, I want them to move on as developers.

I think you'd just be better off buying other developers games mate 😛

Uncharted 4 and Lost Legacy for me are pretty much the same experience (in a good way). The latter is a little bit shorter, more uncharted 1 length with more action.

I love all my children. I'd say;

Uncharted - 9/10
Uncharted 2 - 10/10
Uncharted 3 - 9/10
Uncharted 4 - 10/10
Lost Legacy - 9/10

The Last of Us - 10/10
The Last of Us: Part 2 - 9/10

Never played Bend's Golden Abyss. I have had super fun play throughs playing on the hardest difficulties. That might be key for less superfans like myself getting on board with double dipping.

Ironically never touched the multiplayer much apart from the Horde/Survival mode in 4, which is a blast.
 
Wait wat, this isn't a collection of 1-3? Ugh. I actually would have given the franchise a try at long last, but I guess not.

Playing an uncharted game on crushing is an absolute blast a problem is all that story stuff and spectacle surrounding it. The first time you plan uncharted game the story and the spectacle can be entertaining but if you want to replay for the challenge of the combat it becomes a slog to get through. Lost Legacy is the only entry in the entire franchise where the story and spectacle didn't work on me even the first time. It made changes to the combat formula I wasn't a fan of mostly to do with things like indicators on the screen but in general I didn't think the combat arenas were as well designed as in part 4. I also honestly don't particularly like these female characters they're okay as foils to Nathan Drake but they are not that interesting as stars.

So here's the problem with part of your argument for me it's no different than someone wanting naughty dog to move on to games like uncharted and being told that they should just play different games from the crash bandicoot games. Or someone who wanted them to make something like The Last of Us being told that they're just not the developers for them. But I see them on an arc
as developers and I consider the last of us 2 to be them continuing to rise as developers I realize most this forum doesn't feel the same way but a lot of that has to do with woke aspects or the story.

For me the story being more adult is enough I don't need it to be a perfect story but I'm sick of how inconsequential the stories in uncharted games are. The combat is more thrilling and puts you more in suspense. The visuals are some of the best you could ever see. There's more open elements and some of the puzzles are interesting and have that feel like they fit in the world the way say a half-life 2 physics puzzle did in 2004. I even felt more engaged in the spectacle sections they felt much more like they involved me and less like glorified qte sequences or something. It is true that the rails are still there to an extent but the game feels so cinematic so much of the time it blurs your conception of those rails.

So yes I do think they are going to achieve greater things as developers and I don't think expecting it means I'm playing the wrong games from the wrong people.

Yeah I get you bud. I think the differences for me and you is that I don't see Lost Legacy that much different to the rest, other than they are all somewhat got their own unique flavour/theme. I also don't see The Last of Us as better games just the same games only more serious (neither approach is wrong).

I just think Naughty Dog excel at third person cinematic games and I wouldn't want them to change what their good at, the same way I don't want Blue Point to do their own games or say Quantic Dream to do a 2d platformer.

I'm also one of those rare fans that can see an Uncharted game every few years and never get tired of it. The themes, story and locations are enough. But then you get a franchise like God of War where after one game I'm leveling similar complaints about it just been a continuation of one and I was expecting more. So I guess it's not an easy subject to reach concensus on. I think ultimately critical reception and sales rule all however. It comes at the detriment of variety but I can live with that.

For every "Killzone to Horizon Zero Dawn" shift there would probably be loads of misses and at 100-200 million a pop no company can sustain that.

What? Hell no! Why do you say that though?
They made it more open but in turn got lazy with the design. I found the big arena gunfights far more exciting in uncharted 4. I didn't really care for the two lead characters or the villain. The spectacle felt like repeats of stuff that was done better in prior entries.

I might be too hard on it especially considering when I played it. For me the last of us 2 was a masterpiece and a master class in so many ways. I understand and sympathize with a lot of the critiques people around here have with the game but for me the things it does right supersede any problems I might have with it and I don't necessarily agree with the problems everyone else has anyways.

So that's the problem is I went from that game to something brief light and inconsequential feeling.

Lost Legacy is the second greatest Uncharted game after 2. I loved the game so much, it's great!

I only played like two hours of it before getting sidetracked, but the wide open sections seemed interesting.

Well yeah no doubt. Coming from a personal masterpiece to something not as strong for you will surely give you this feeling

My second favourite Uncharted game. I'm not even a fan of the series but 2 and LL were spot on for me
 
Why not include all of them?
Maybe they just have too many PC ports going at the same time lol

Or maybe there's already an Uncharted collection for 1-3 that runs at 60fps and they felt that their best bet for profit was to hold back UC4 and LL from running at 60fps on PS5 to make everyone think that this collection had value.

I forgot the 1-3 collection runs on PS5. Good point.
