I usually play games in their highest difficulty both for the platinum and because I really enjoy the challenge. Many Sony games deliver on that front: TLOU 1 and 2, GOW and Uncharted games are great examples.
The gameplay in TLOU is not deep at all. The higher difficulty levels come from bullet sponge enemies taking off more damage. The AI sucks. It's clunky. This is why there are no amazing online TLOU gamers, because everybody can perform at the highest level with a little practice. Scripted animation sequences and control is constantly being taken away from the player, context sensitive moves. Go find the ladder. Set piece central. Weak gameplay for noobs.
Uncharted is well below even TLOU, not even worth discussing this Micheal Bay crap.
Gow has decent combat and otherwise is just a good movie. These games are cannon fodder compared to the Nintendo greats when discussing gameplay.
Interacting with one wave in Wave Race is literally better than anything Sony has ever done.
Let that sink in.
