Ominous warnings and unconvincing ploys abound in today’s episode of Uncharted 3. It’s an adventure that takes us underground, across rooftops, and out to sea! What more could you ask for? A more thoroughly considered archeological mystery, that’s what.

Hey there! How are you doing buddy?
If you ask me, sniper weapons shouldn't be called "weapons of mass destruction". Actually, they're more like "weapons of very specific destruction"
Nolan North has ruined the drug scene for me. Very impressive but damn him lmao
bro i remembered the tanker chapter being kind of out of nowhere but jeez the transition to it is THAT fast?
Your application will close in 15 minutes…
This game is awesome
I remember this part of the game really annoying me
In the last 2 games Drake wanted to leave the adventure, and Elena was pushing him to keep going
Now Drake wants to do it and she's like "why Nate what do you need to prove? Why keep going"
Just frustrated me a lot lol
Btw, that water section on higher difficulties is one of the most painful parts in the whole franchise
Nice thumbnail
3:05 I never noticed those statues but in the little area you have a fist fight with the drugged Cutter in there's a giant concaved face in the wall too
Man, Uncharted 3 sequences really feel like fluff, and like they are at the point where they are trying too hard to be like movies. Especially with how tenuous the plot is like you said, the locations just feel really whatever to me, and my memory of them is often blurry except for the fort with Cutter and the Boat. It feels like I went there just to have the cool sequences, and then the sequences themselves never feel very good. Like I don't actually like the fist fighting in this game. What they're doing is technically cool, but I could not care less playing those mash fests.
Or like the drug trip is neat, but it feels hokey, and it feels schizophrenic to go from the drug sequence, to the extremely long Talbot chase and QTE filled brawl, and then to wake up in the boat, where after a few minutes you just get absorbed into it and kind of wipe how you got there out of your memory. You just focus on how much cooler the boat is than whatever you were doing earlier.
And speaking of Talbot and Marlowe, I think they're easily the least charasmatic villains in the series, Talbot especially just annoys me with how boring he is, but how much he manages to be so capable proportionally. The two of them also do really always know what your protagonists are up to, and it adds to making everything feel wishy-washy and strung together, even if they're kinda fun in the moment.
Elena in the last sequence too feels very subdued compared to her personality in previous games, and it always bothered me a bit. I get why a bit, but it really just feels like a vehicle for her to chastise Nate a bit.
Uncharted 3 is the "bluh" sort of trying to be an action movie game that people often just blanket the whole series as being. Because if Uncharted 3 WAS a movie, it'd probably be quite a bit more intense with action, or else just be a really mediocre because of the tightness of what's going on. Though maybe I'm being a bit hard, cause I do still like some things in the game.
