@TheBrandedSwordsman Honestly chapter 9 wasn't that memorable, and the vehicle in chapter 10 definitely breaks up the gameplay but get ready, if I remember correctly you have some iconic action moments ahead of you towards the end of this chapter/beginning of chapter 11.
@TheBrandedSwordsman Good to see your progress. Yeah, all I’ll say is that the backstory and side content contained in Lost Legacy is a great filling in of character development and gives some of the people and events of UC4 some nice perspective.
@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy I’ve finally finished the main story in Y5 but want to tidy up some loose ends/trophies but it is certainly looong. I’ve clocked up over 120hrs on it already!
I’ve enjoyed it but it has certainly felt long.
@LieutenantFatman Guacamelee 2 is excellent fun. I also went back to get the good ending and ending up with every trophy other than the one for replaying on hard. I even managed all the Proving Ground trophies too! A great Metroidvania and combo of platforming and combat.
@TraCuz- Use spoilers tags around the words you want to blank out. Which is done by doing this: (spoiler) insert text here (/spoiler), but replace the brackets with square brackets [ ]. Or just hit the quote button to see how it is done down below.
@TheBrandedSwordsman Yes, I've played through the first 3 Uncharted games via the PS4 remastered collection. Overall they're quite fun. Drake is alright, although he can be a bit smug at times. Sully is great, and any scene that he's in is automatically a good one.
Out of the 3 games, I'm going to take the unpopular opinion and say the first one is my favourite. I like how it's not as over the top as the others, and keeps things focused around one main island. Plus we get to see a lot of best girl Elena in it. And I think the supernatural elements are handled best in this game, as they're quite scary and challenging. In later games, the supernatural fights become far too frustrating.
I've got the 4th game somewhere from a previous sale, so I'm up for giving it a try at some point.
So I’m playing through Uncharted Drakes Fortune Remaster on PS4 at the moment and it’s been several years since I played the game originally on PS3. I’ve been enjoying it immensely until just this moment... Chapter 12. How did I not remember this absolutely atrocious upstream jet ski run with exploding barrels, sniping bad guys, and the most loosey-goosey awful steering controls ever devised? That was a very unfun experience. 😅 Hopefully that’s the last I see of that jet ski.

@TraCuz- Yeah, for me too. Although a lot of it comes back to my memory, but there are whole sections where I don’t really remember it — like the aforementioned jet ski section. I must have blocked it out of my memory. I’m actually at Chapter 17 now, making good progress, and I overall think the game is brilliant. The vocal performances are stupendous, and the visuals and flow of the game is so well done. The hordes of enemies that come at you is a little annoying at times, and there are a few little inconsistencies here and there, but it’s a great game. If it’s been since PS3 days since you played it then you should give the PS4 remaster a spin.
@Thrillho
Those Proving Ground challenges are fun, didn't quite manage gold in all of them yet. Thinking I will return to play hard mode at some point, but I tend to find a big break between playthroughs makes it a lot more enjoyable on the revisit.
@TheBrandedSwordsman Well, I just started the chapter and quit for the night, but up to this point the story is quite good. A typical Indiana Jones style artifact and treasure hunt. It’s nothing too complex, and there is definitely plenty of Hollywood style moments of pure convenience to move the plot along, so it doesn’t always make perfect sense, but it’s exciting all the same. For example, and this is only a minor spoiler, but I’ll spoiler tag it anyways - Nathan and Elena just made it through a complex maze of puzzles trying to get to the treasure, and they reach the end and find a decayed body, which is a skeleton.. with a beard (how is there hair and a beard on a skull with no skin?!) and Nate immediately knows the corpse’s identity and he immediately deduces the circumstances of his death. It’s all a little too convenient. Also when they find certain clues like maps or various devices, sometimes they are just laying out in the open... yeah right — like a map from the 1500’s would be laying out and that easily readable without some kind of special preservation done to it. But I look past all these over analyzation issues and enjoy it for what it is. I mean, what video game story doesn’t have a few plot holes?
But I think I’m pretty close to the end. The climactic encounter is about to occur and maybe I’ll finish it in the next day to two.

Oooof! That's a whole lotta hours @Thrillho... Impressive you've stuck with it for so long though.
I take it you're gonna have one hell of a break before you even think of starting up Yakuza 6! 😅
You're getting pretty close to the game's finale @LieutenantFatman with you fast approaching one of my favourite boss fights and pieces of music in the entire game!
... Though Iconoclasts has a lot of fun bosses and a really good and diverse soundtrack to boot so it's almost too hard to choose!
Pffft what are you talking about @nessisonett? That is a masterclass of dialogue and voice acting! Tidus wishes he could emote as beautifully with his voice breaking from the sheer emotional power of the line! That was the one thing I did happen to remember about DMC 1. Well done Capcom lol
Though DMC 1 really made me question why Trish is such a well liked character with the fandom. Lady from 3 I understand wholeheartedly as I love the character myself... But Trish? She's... honestly kinda terrible.
@Kidfried
Good luck with that queen, took me way more retries than I'd like to admit. Was the only part of the game I found even slightly frustrating. Hope you have better luck, or more skill, than I did.
@RogerRoger Well, once I discovered the trick that when you aim your gun with L2, the jet ski sort of freezes, at least mostly, and the current doesn’t carry you, it’s a mechanic I spammed to gradually crawl up stream, but even with that I was bumping into rocks and spinning out of control repeatedly. Thankfully it’s not a very long section. I didn’t mind the other jet ski parts, it was mostly just trying to fight the water current the whole time that made it a frustrating exercise.
Interestingly, I’ve just completed that zombie horde section and found it not too bad. The run-‘n’-gun method of shooting was most useful. But yes, that section does require a little deftness to running around to keep picking up ammo and not accidentally dodging down one of the holes, which I did once.
@Kidfried Good luck! I definitely had to play on easy for that final boss. And use a Rage Resurrection stone. Also had fully upgraded weapons, Runic attacks, and armor, I used the mist armor from Niflheim. All those final bosses are really fun!
@Sorteddan Lol, not to mention the copious amount of ammo and weaponry that’s just lying around everywhere you go. In the Uncharted Universe people just love to throw fully functional guns away and abandon them out in the open all the time. And live grenades. And somehow, despite the weapons all being there since the 1940’s, they seem to work perfectly. 😂
It all makes for a smashing fun game though! I wouldn’t change it!
