Really, really enjoying it.

And the game looks ridiculously good.

Really enjoying an empty world with nothing interesting to do? How do you people enjoy yourself so easily? Does the lobotomy helps or something? The game is fucking boring. No optional quests, no skill system, but hey graphics are good and one can swing on a rope from time to time. Such groundbreaking gameplay.

@2mrw: thats my boy!

Great game. Finished it last night.

You talk about enjoyment, and as if you have some kind of higher standard when it comes to being entertained. But then, you start throwing out nonsense like "skill trees" and "optional quests".

You're having a laugh, right?

How those are nonsense? It's pretty much standard stuff today that one would expect from a high budget game. Uncharted gameplay is stale and was basically the same for what...5 installments at this point? I am not saying that that stuff is any stamp of quality, but if done right, it can make a stale formula a bit fresher. Naughty Dog is lazy at this point. The same kind of story over and over again - a forgotten city that has a treasure, a warlord that is looking for the same treasure as the protagonists. The same plot with slightly different skins spiked with artificial drama. The plot itself is a B action movie at best. Shallow gameplay that doesn't excel in anything - shooting meh, stealth meh, achievement hunting meh. Graphically, it's impressive of course. The Last of US was the last good game when they they actually tried to innovate the gameplay and story telling. Uncharted 4 was a step back in gameplay quality and story telling hands down.

Adding sidequests and a skill tree would've done nothing for the game. The game has treasures, one big treasure hunt for a secret item, easter eggs, and a lot of hidden conversation. Not to mention it's still DLC from the Uncharted franchise. They're not gonna mix up anything, and the game is better off that way. Leave that for a new IP.

Why start adding this stuff in now? And as I've said, it would've made the game worse. That's the problem with developers tackling open world. It's not about shoving shit in there. The Lost Legacy's open world, which is only one level, works fine on its own. Doesn't need to be Ubi'd.

And the gunplay is fine. Encounters are incredibly fun. This was also the case in Uncharted 4. Sneaking and platforming is whatever, but that's the way this franchise is. Adding in side-content and a skill tree wouldn't have improved these things.
