Is this the most overrated game in the past five years?
>>342810556
no
>>342810556
Considering it's already forgotten, no. I'd say pretty much any trash Platinum releases is. Endlessly praised and fucking terrible in every way.
>>342810556
as long as the last of us exists I highly doubt it.can't wait for the plethora of idiots calling me out on how amazing the game is and how I don't understand shit while I simply stated the game is overrated which is very different from saying it's a bad game
>>342810556
Played this recently. Gameplay was great as expected, but what the fuck was up with the story and forcing you to spend the majority of the game with your dipshit brother?
No, it's fun, it has a terrible first third but when the gameplay opens up it really shines. I'm still amazed that in the year of our lord 2016 people still hold on to what other people THINK of the game to somehow justify their shitposting
>>342810913
>pic not related
Yes. Not only it's overrated, but it's bad.
Gone Home is probably the biggest "most overrated" contender I can think of
>>342810556
Gameplay is dull. The guns feel like shit. Boring characters. The only thing this game has is graphics. Oh, and there's too much climbing.
>>342810913
Witcher 3 is way more overrated. At least on /v/.
>>342811239
no it's definitely related

calling them movies is just a way for them to feel better that they don't have a PS4.
>>342811020
Last of Us was the first game that came to mind for me when I read the topic. And I liked it for what it is, but the gushing on about it & "game of the generation" shit seemed absurd to me.
On the other hand I enjoyed it more than Uncharted 4. Which I also enjoyed enough, even though I kind of had to push myself to finish the last half of it. I guess it's apparent overrated-ness will become more apparent when GotY awards time comes. Though I don't see people calling it "game of the generation". So there is that.
Also I've been gaming for over 25 years. It seems like truly revolutionary games stopped being made several generations ago & if anything game design has devolved to be more simple & "cinematic". So usually anything heralded as the "new big thing" almost always seems like a step backwards, but with pretty graphics.
No, but the most overrated game does have the same two beginning letters...
Can you guess it?
>>342811367
It has nice locations as well. And the pirate stuff is pretty cool.
I liked Uncharted 4. I think it's just a little too long at parts.
>>342811367
I overall liked the game for what it is, but I agree that the gunplay just didnt feel on point & the climbing sections stretched on way too long & made up way too much of the game.

Pre-hype was ridiculous
Release hype was ridiculous
Post hype was ridiculous for like a week or two
Everyone played it then forgot about it.
Shallow gameplay, weak story, weak characters. All graphics with most of it just being a jungle.
This is what is competing with FFXV for GOTY? lol
I don't recall U4 getting the undying praise TLoU got.
Anyway, it's a great game.
It improved everything from the previous games
It's the sequel Uncharted desperately needed, because the last two did borderline nothing to improve.
>>342810556
Yes
I don't even know that I like Uncharted 4 more than the other Uncharted games. Though I only find them reasonably entertaining enough for a playthrough. 4's pacing is kind of shit.
Uncharted 4 fulfilled my desire to walk up to stuff and press the triangle button over and over.
>>342812420
Nice meme
>>342812702
What are you talking about Uncharted 2 was the pinnacle of the series it had great multiplayer and the story was really well paced compared to this shit.
>>342813505
I think he meant Uncharted 3 & that Vita Uncharted game.
>>342813505
>story
>multiplayer
What about the gameplay in the single player
What about the encounter designs
What about the difficulty scaling
What about the climbing
Why is Nathan so goddamn fragile
Why does every single enemy have aimbots and they all know exactly where you are at all times
U4 opened the game up, greatly improved the stealth system (i.e. actually made it a viable playstyle), tuned the difficulty so you aren't facing five minigun fuckers at once halfway through the game, gave Nathan a more forgiving amount of health (Seriously, like three hits on normal? With that AI? Are you kidding me?), made enemy AI more dynamic so you aren't stuck behind a single knee-high wall the whole encounter
It's so much more well-designed and F U N.
>>342813840
No, U2 had the same issues, all it did was tighten up the controls and make minor improvements to the climbing. Everything else was straight out of U1 and they didn't do anything to fix it until 4.
The best they did prior was grenade throwback in 3.
>>342813919
I actually agree with you on Uncharted 2. I played the first & 2 back to back & didn't feel like there was the huge difference other people seem to. I just see Unchared 2 widely propagated as a vast improvement.
U2 > U4 > U1 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> U3
>>342810556
Was it even all that hyped? Sure it had a lot of press, but was the post launch reaction all that special? As others have already stated, The Last of Us and The Witcher vastly overshadow it, so no.
>>342811709
UnrealI disagree
>>342814141
Yeah, I only just played them with the collection early this year.
And they really blended together. It felt less like three games and one very long game.

10/10 on the autism scale
The Last of Us was. At least the online in Uncharted 4 is actually pretty good.
Also the most overrated game ever was Bayonetta 2, and I generally like Platnium games. Game sold like 5 copies anyway so it doesnt matter.
>>342811659
The Last of Us was the Resident Evil 4 of the 7th generation. Resident Evil 4 was completely different and was amazing from all angles. The Last of Us also got the same praise because Naughty Dog just pulled off something different very nicely, just like Capcom did.
This is why TLoU got its overrated praise.
Played it and enjoyed it, but I can't say this is an amazing game. Story is nothing unique and the last boss is awful. On the other hand, scenery was awesome and it wrapped everything up in a good "bon voyage" style in a playful yet solid manner. Never felt like the end to an epic but more of another chapter in Nathan's life which is what made red dead redemption and the witcher 3 feel good to play
the reload animations are bretty good
>>342818085
It's not a great game but it's an experience worth playing through. Rent don't buy. Beatable in 2 days
>>342818085
Half of the animations are great and half are just awful. I don't know why Naughty Dog thought it was acceptable to have characters snap during melee animations, it looks awkward as shit.
the impossible happened
Something I wondered after beating it was was there a moral to the story I didn't catch that related at all to Nathan's life or was it just the story and nothing more?
>>342818323
its for gameplay purposes, since there is no other way to get the models in the positions they need to be for the Jason-Bourne-tier melee animations without hugely slowing down overall melee speed in the process
they prioritize gameplay design over animation
>>342817269
like 8 enemieis died when the trucks exploded
>>342810556
Probably not, besides being a really lackluster game mechanically and actual-content-wise, it is still a beautifully designed and orchestrated "experience" with a bit of interaction.
the gamplay might be just filler, but the rest is really very good.
Fallout 4 on the other hand is bad in so many and mediocre in most regards, and still gets praised to high heavens, so it is definitely the more overrated game between the two.
>>342817948
You REALLY don't play many video games if you hold such a crazy opinion of TLoU like that. RE4 is leaps and bounds a better game in every facet (even story). TLoU was just a generic OTS shooter with clumsy/heavy controls.

oh so you're a butthurt weeb that only likes le wacky cuhrazzyyy shit, and anything remotely resembling reality with human characters looking, sounding, and acting like real people is "boring" or "generic". You've had a chance to look at the webms, and nothing in them is generic. It's best in the biz.

what? I guess you are right in the fact that they are all human mercenaries, but they each have very different roles and use different AI depending on their equipment >>342820927
It's just much easier to make cool webms against the regular enemies because they are not super dangerous like most other enemy types
>>342810556
Uncharted is nowhere near overrated. OP is a salty sony hater.
>>342822474
Not that guy but enemies with armor cover isn't fucking new it's generic as fuck even Call of Duty has done that shit.
>>342822474
oh right, they added "guy who runs at you and makes you do the totes not a QTE combat" in addition to the guy who turns your screen red from afar

>moving the goalposts
no one said armored enemies were "fucking new"
the guy said Uncharted 4 only had a single enemy type
and the armored "QTE combat" guy is the most dangerous enemy in the game because it takes like 4 seconds of mashing triangle to free yourself and everyone else in the map has an open shot to kill you as they're holding you down

that video is also correct though

it does make the game have more than one enemy type though, which is what the post >>342822474 was about in the first place

>>342824769
Metal Gear is good tho. Has a lot going for it. In fact, MGS did have much better exploration value than Uncharted, since you had to actually backtrack and find items in previously areas that you could now access with a keycard or whatever else. You could explore the whole base as you please once you've gone through an area once. That's very different to Unfarted, where you're just basically going down a linear path.
Also MGS is not a game that has a primary theme about exploration. An exploration game that's linear with scripted linear climbing sequences a la Uncharted is a pretty fucking retarded because that's not really 'exploration' at all. Rather you're just going down an extremely narrow path that the developers allowed you to go down.
Stop being a retarded fanboy anon.

>>342825267
Lol at all the butthurt in the comments.
I especially love how unreasonable people, i.e. fans of Western Sony exclusives, cry they should have stopped playing when they realized they don't like the game.
Imagine the video ending when it became clear how boring Uncharted 4 is... so almost immediately. Every unreasonable person, i.e. fan of Western Sony exclusives, would then cry they didn't even gave the game a chance.
>>342824518
>it's okay if a game has lazy writing despite taking itself seriously
Wew lad
All the characterization in the world doesn't save the shit tier plot. The story isn't even the purpose of these games, so I don't know why you're defending it.
>>342825396
>Treasure bonuses are pretty fucking weak collectathon items that add nothing to gameplay
I dunno, man. You're a treasure hunter, so I thinks it's pretty befitting to give you the added challenge of collecting hidden treasures, doing optional puzzles, and triggering optional dialogues that add to the characterization of characters. That moment where you pull up a chair in Libertalia and ask Sam how their lives could have ended up differently is one of the most touching moments I ever had in a game before because the entire time I spent with Sam and bonding with him and this moment was completely optional and I got to ask him the questions. It felt like he was really there. It only adds even more weight to the twist when they pull the rug under you.

Actually there are, even before MGS5. There are often multiple ways of getting from one point to another e.g. vent or elevator, using the cardboard box transport system in MGS2, etc
